Chapter 42: Choice 2
"Sir, the third master is here." At this moment, Lu Qingyun said cautiously outside the hall.
"Third uncle?" Lu Zhaoci had a hint of curiosity on his face and frowned slightly. Since going south to Guanzhong, except for correspondence, no one has come to Guanzhong anymore. Unexpectedly, at this time, Lu Chang had settled down and came to Guanzhong.
"Since the general has important matters, I will take my leave first." Fang Xuanling watched clearly from the side and quickly said with his hands.
"Thank you for Xuanling coming to tell me. I can't thank you enough." Lu Zhaoci frowned when he remembered what the two had just discussed. He knew that what Fang Xuanling said was indeed reasonable, and Li Yuan should rest assured.
If you use yourself boldly, you will definitely give yourself a daughter of the clan or even your own daughter as your wife. But Li Xiuning is the least likely. Do you really let yourself marry an unknown person? Fang Xuanling is proficient in strategy,
Although what he said was very hurtful, it made perfect sense.
"Da Lang." Suddenly a clear voice came over, and Lu Changding was seen walking in with rapid strides.
"Third uncle." Lu Zhaoci bowed and said, "Third uncle is here, why don't you inform your nephew earlier so that he can pick him up."
"Haha, your third uncle is not a three-year-old child. How could you be asked to pick him up? Although Daxing City is big, it is still very simple to find you, General Zuo Yiwei's mansion." Lu Changding laughed loudly and patted him.
Lu Zhaoci looked over his shoulder and said with a hint of contentment: "Yes, yes, my Lu family has also produced a county prince. In the future, we can compete with Fan Yang's sect."
"Third uncle, he is just a county prince. In Daxing City, there are many people with higher titles than my nephew." Lu Zhaoci shook his head and said, "Third uncle has come from afar, please take a seat." Of course he knew.
Lu Changding came from Huoyi. I'm afraid he didn't just come to see him. He must have other important matters.
"A cunning fox is a cunning fox. I know that your third uncle has other important matters here." Lu Changding sighed deeply, took out a letter from his arms, threw it to Lu Zhaoci, and said, "This is my clan leader.
Brother asked me to give you the letter, please take a good look at it!"
There was a trace of curiosity on Lu Zhaoci's face. Something so important actually required Lu Changding to deliver the letter in person. He then took out a few pieces of paper from the envelope. It was indeed Lu Changqing's handwriting.
"Engagement?" A wry smile appeared on Lu Zhaoci's face, and he carefully looked at the letter in his hand.
"Yes, Dalang will be twenty after this year. Back then, because, hey, there was something wrong with your brain, so I never got engaged to you. Now that you have become the Duke of Linfen County, General Zuo Yiwei, how can you be without a wife?
, so the eldest brother is going to arrange a marriage for you." Lu Changding showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.
"Then why are there two people up there?" Lu Zhaoci said with a bitter smile: "Zhang family in Hedong? Cui family in Qinghe? What does this mean?"
"Hey! The elder brother recommended the Zhang family from Hedong, and the Cui family from Qinghe, ahem, was decided by the old man." Lu Changding shook his head and said.
"Father? Old Master?" Lu Zhaoci's face moved slightly.
"Eldest brother is now the governor of Huoyi. The Hedong Zhang family is deeply rooted in Huoyi. Although it is not as good as my Hedong Lu family, but if the eldest brother wants to govern Huoyi, he needs the support of the Hedong Zhang family. And you have now become General Zuo Yiwei, with the title
As the Duke of Linfen County, if the Zhang family in Hedong wants to establish a foothold in Hedong, it is even more important for them to make friends with you, Dalang. That’s why I gave Zhang’s daughter to you." Lu Changding shook his head and said: "As for the old man, hehe, he has wanted to do it all his life.
In order to surpass our sect, the Lu family of Huoyi surpassed the Lu family of Fanyang, so we formed an alliance with the Cui family of Qinghe. I am afraid that the Cui family of Qinghe also wanted to take the opportunity to intervene in the affairs of Guanzhong this time, which is why we have this intention."
"Huh!" Lu Zhaoci's expression changed after hearing this, and he said coldly: "It's really annoying that the marriage of one person is so public and involves so many things."
"What? There are other changes in this matter." Lu Changding asked curiously.
"Third uncle just came to Daxing. Now there are rumors in the market that my nephew took advantage of the situation and killed Chai Shao, the eldest son of the Chai family, and wanted to marry the third wife of the Li family." Lu Zhaoci said with a look of annoyance:
"These Guanlong families are so vindictive. They insist on expelling my Guandong family from Guanzhong."
"The Prime Minister intends to marry you?" Lu Changding's expression changed and he asked in surprise.
"Maybe that's what I meant." Lu Zhaoci nodded and said, "My nephew is now General Zuo Yiwei, and is the hidden leader of the Li Clan's foreign military generals. If the Prime Minister wants to use me, he must use me as the wife of a Li Clan woman."
.It's just this, hey!" Lu Zhaoci raised the letter in his hand, and the look of annoyance on his face became even stronger.
"What should we do?" Lu Changding's expression also changed. Li Yuan is not used for the Lu family and the Cui family. At this moment, Li Yuan is the king of Tang and the prime minister. But everyone in the world knows that before long, the king of Tang will change
He became the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, sitting south and facing north, achieving the status of an emperor. What he said was undoubtedly an imperial edict. Although the Li family's two daughters were widows, their status was respected. What's more, the Li family was of Xianbei blood and did not pay attention to these at all.
.The emperor's daughter has no worries about getting married. Even a widowed person can still be worthy of joining a noble family like Lu Zhaoci.
"Hey!" Lu Zhaoci sighed deeply. Now the trouble was big. I don't know if some bastard from the Guanlong family came up with this trick, which put Lu Zhaoci in danger.
"It seems that both of these families have to give up." Lu Changding sighed, looked at Lu Zhaoci and said, "Although you are the general of the imperial court and the Duke of Linfen County, you are also a descendant of the Lu family.
Everyone must consider the Lu family. Whether it is your father or the old man, they all consider the Lu family. You must know that your marriage is not decided by you, whether you are the eldest son of the Lu family, or the
This is the case for all Linfen County Dukes in the imperial court. Privately, your marriage can increase the Lu family's prestige; publicly, if the Prime Minister wants to use you with confidence, he must betroth the daughter of the clan to you."
"My nephew understands." Lu Zhaoci sighed. No matter at any time, the marriage of a high-ranking aristocrat is never decided by himself. Even in the modern era of the new century, it is the same. When money controls the context of the times, well-matched couples will also do it.
appeared, the marriage strategy was still popular among high-ranking nobles. What's more, this was at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. Although the imperial examination had appeared and the aristocratic family had reached its decline, the influence was also huge. Some aristocratic families
At this time, it is even more necessary to consolidate the status of the family through marriage strategies. Such is the case with the Hedong Zhang family. As for whether the marriage partners are related to each other, this is not a matter that these families consider.
