The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

"Hmph, who makes them incompetent and like to jump around, but they are also cowardly people who become strong when they are weak and weak when they are strong!" He Xiangyi couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, "If they weren't thinking about the benefits, In the palm of my hand, I promise you, my sister, to that good-for-nothing from the Wu family, and thereby marry into the famous royal moneybags of the former Qi Dynasty. How can I offend the Wen family and take action against them? "

He Xiangrong listened to the words, as if the person mentioned was not her, and continued the topic without changing her expression: "Right now, the two brothers are afraid of the Wen family and want to show goodwill and seek peace, so they think the best way is to marry them... From what I know, they plan to give the shares of the sea trade in the Wu family's betrothal gift as your dowry."

"...Humph, I didn't expect that the two of them would only grow in age but not in brains!" He Xiang realized that the only son of the Wen family with extremely ordinary talent could not help clenching his fists, "Marriage can bring two surnames together, and it can also They have always known that I am not as good-tempered as your sister! You want to take advantage of me!"

He Xiangrong looked at the anger in his sister's eyes, remained silent for a moment, and whispered: "Although I am not taken seriously in the Wu family, I have also heard some rumors... The former Qi royal family has a legitimate right to inherit, but he has long been missing. No, they had no intention of leaving Chu and returning to the country. All they wanted to do was take advantage of the current opportunity to merge with the Chu bloodline and regain their status as royal relatives.

I heard from them that the current Holy Emperor is weak and his daughter is still young. The officials in the imperial court are suspicious of the young master, and they are looking at the clan as the candidate for the heir apparent. "

"Humph, sister, you said a lot, does it feel familiar?" He Xiangyi looked at He Xiangrong with a sneer.

"..." He Xiangrong was quiet.

"Humph, my uncle He Xuming has been famous in the south since he was a child. He is a relegated immortal, and his poetic talent may not be much worse than that of Cao Zijian. When he was there, there were many cars and horses in front of his house, and there were countless people who complimented him. Treat him well. He was injured and bedridden. Even if he could no longer serve as the chief official of Linzhou, there was still an endless stream of people visiting him. But who would have thought that his youngest son, who had just left, would fall into the water and drown in the end. Hands, the widow and his nine-year-old daughter have to live their lives depending on others!"

"This...is still different."

"What's the difference?!" He Xiangyi has always disliked her sister deceiving herself. "Although I was young at that time, I also had ears and brains. He Xianggui had already given birth to a second son, so why did he adopt him to his uncle? Become a son?"

"My great-grandfather only has two sons, my grandfather and my great-uncle, and my great-uncle only has one son from my cousin. They have no heirs. Among the closest relatives we can find, the uncle and our family are the closest ones. There is only one seedling in a thousand hectares of land. He is an only grandson, and he is very delicate, but who will be the adopted brother? "Yes, it sounds reasonable!" He Xiangyi said this, but he kept repeating it in his mind. Recalling the memory of that time, she had seen these parties with her own eyes. When her uncle was still alive, she calculated the property of her uncle's house.

How is this different from the current matter of establishing a reserve? !

After that, she could no longer listen to what He Xiangrong said, and there was only one thought left in her mind - if she allowed her two brothers to scheme, how would she be any different from these despicable people who plotted against her cousin's family fortune? !

"I'm not here to persuade you. I just want to help you find relief. I'm an incompetent person and can't help you much. I just hope that your wishes will come true. Don't be like me."

After He Xiangyi calmed down, he heard this conclusion.

She looked at her gentle sister and was a little moved, but she resisted the words that rolled to her lips and nodded slightly in response.

Seeing that it was almost time, He Xiangrong took his sister's hand and urged her all the way back to the house, and then left with the maid.

Not long after the soft sedan left the South Alley, when they were walking around the street at the side gate of the government office, the maid in front of He Xiangrong rushed in with a book of flower notes.

……

After He Xiangyi sent her sister away, she sat alone in front of the bed in a daze. It was not until night approached that she asked someone to move the bed tent to the courtyard in the name of enjoying the summer. She recalled the music scores she learned from the post house and played the pipa. (End of chapter)
