238, Chapter 238
"Teacher." Qin Fang got on the carriage, "Why did you come here in person? This student is going to visit you at home."
Du Ke did not say these false etiquette: "It happened that the Ministry of War Yamen was fine, and I heard that you were sending fire medicine to Beijing, so I came to have a look." During the battle between Qi Guo and Manli on the border of Yongzhou, the fire medicine matter was already over. Everyone knows , so there is no need to hide . "When you come back this time, will the officials from the Ministry of Industry come back with you?"
Qin Fang said: "Yes." After thinking about it, Qin Fang asked again, "Teacher, how will the emperor arrange them? I saw that on the way back, the faces of those officials were not good."
Du Ke disagreed: "What do you think will happen? Even if the emperor kills them, do you think the emperor is cruel?"
Qin Fang was silent. Everyone knows about the firewood, and if these officials from the Ministry of Industry leak the formula of the firewood, then Qiguo will not have the advantage of firewood. Yunxiang County can produce sulfur and saltpeter, and so can other counties. Qi State can produce sulfur and saltpeter, and other countries can do the same.
Therefore, the emperor will not let the officials of the Ministry of Work go free. As for whether they will solve the problem secretly, no one knows. "Your Majesty has His Majesty's intentions." In the end, Qin Fang could only answer this way. He is not the emperor, so we cannot judge the emperor's position from his position.
Du Ke nodded with satisfaction: "It's best if you think so. You have to understand that sometimes you can't be a woman. Of course, I'm not teaching you to be cruel and unkind."
Qin Fang said: "Students understand."
"When you come back this time, the emperor will talk to you about your transfer back to the capital?" Du Ke is mainly concerned about this matter, "The firewood in Yunxiang County has been completed, so you can't stay there. It's okay, I might as well transfer him back to the capital." Du Ke is a fan of officials. In his opinion, from a local official to a capital official, this is an inevitable life for a court official. Therefore, Qin Fang's transfer back to the capital was natural in his opinion.
When it comes to this, Qin Fang's expression is not good: "Let's talk about other things."
Du Ke looked at Qin Fang's face and was a little surprised: "What else did the emperor say?"
So, Qin Fang talked about the things in the palace, which naturally also included the marriage.
When Du Ke heard this, he immediately said: "This is not in line with the emperor's style. The emperor does not like aristocratic families, nor does he like marriage. The emperor likes people from poor families. For this reason, he will not propose marriages for younger brothers from poor families, let alone Regardless of the fact that the emperor wants to cultivate you, how can he recommend you to a young lady from an aristocratic family? "In the emperor's opinion, the more ordinary the mother-in-law's family of a poor family member is, the better, so that it is less likely to form cliques.
When Qin Fang heard this, he understood a little: "So the emperor is really testing me?"
Du Ke nodded: "According to my understanding of the Emperor, this should be the case. Moreover, the Emperor is quite optimistic about this girl Bingyun. If the Emperor does not look down upon her identity, he will not grant her the title The wife of the second grade. Furthermore, you and Bingyun were married by the court. The court represents the emperor's face. If the emperor proposes marriage to you again, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
Therefore, there is no doubt that the emperor is testing you. However, I also have a doubt, but I can't figure it out. "
"Teacher, please tell me." After listening to the teacher's analysis, Qin Fang was at least a little reassured. The emperor would test him if he wanted to. It didn't matter to him, as long as the emperor didn't really want to marry him.
Du Ke said: "If there is no doubt that the emperor is testing you, then why did he mention your brothers? Although he values you, you are not enough for him to value your brothers. Don't say it is. Even if you are my brother, the Emperor will not like you. If the Emperor wants to like someone, he must be good enough. Otherwise, given his status, who can make him condescend to me?"
Qin Fang doesn't understand this.
Du Ke said again: "Tell me about your brother." After speaking, they arrived at Du's house, and then they entered Du Ke's study.
When he came back, he brought him into the study room, and the Du family members once again realized how much the head of the family valued this student.
"Yes." Qin Fang knew everything about Du Ke. He told Du Ke everything about Qin Shouye and Qin Shoucheng. There is really nothing special about the two little ones. Qin Shoucheng was still studying, and Qin Shouye was working as a bookkeeper in the military camp. If I had to talk about it, it was Qin Shouye’s fiancée, “…Teacher, originally Miss Xu and Shouye were fake engaged, but now the emperor asked, I was worried that the emperor would marry Shouye, so I didn’t say anything about the fake engagement. Now that the marriage has been made public in front of the emperor, can the marriage between Shou Ye and Miss Xu not be cancelled? "
Du Ke narrowed his eyes and said, "Why do I think the emperor's preparatory plan for your marriage seems to be your brother's marriage."
Qin Fang had a meal.
Qin Fang knew that the emperor was a good emperor, but he naturally didn't understand the emperor's character. But Du Ke didn't understand. Qin Fang didn't know that the emperor was just testing him, and Du Ke could see it. But now, after hearing about Qin Shouye and Miss Xu, Du Ke felt that the emperor first mentioned Qin Fang's proposed marriage, and then talked about Qin Fang's brothers' marriage, as if he wanted Qin Fang's brothers to get married as soon as possible.
But among Qin Fang's younger brothers, Qin Shouye is the only one who can get married as soon as possible. So, the emperor's purpose is to let Qin Shouye get married as soon as possible?
However, there was nothing worthy of the emperor's attention about Qin Shouye.
Qin Fang talked about the Xu family girl and his suspicion of the Xu family girl. Du Ke suddenly thought that maybe the Xu family girl had no other purpose, but...the emperor's intention?
But when I think about it, it feels wrong. What is the emperor's purpose in doing this? Let a girl from the Xu family marry Qin Shouye to secretly monitor the Qin family?
Of course Qin Fang is not stupid. When Du Ke mentioned this, Qin Fang suddenly said: "Miss Xu is the person arranged by the emperor? But there is no problem with Miss Xu's identity in the Xu family."
Du Ke: "I don't know, but you're right. Since this marriage has been made public, your brother and that girl Xu must get married. Furthermore, even if you are not married today, If my brother doesn’t marry that girl Xu, there will be another girl.”
Qin Fang said: "I don't want Shouye to be unhappy about getting married. I've been through this and I know how important it is to marry a girl you like."
Qin Fang's words made Du Ke sneer a few times: "You and that girl Bingyun didn't know each other before you got married."
Qin Fang blushed: "But now I feel it."
Du Ke said: "This is your housework, I don't care about it. Come on, go eat, your wife should be in a hurry."
"Um."
Yunxiang County
"Sister-in-law, there is something I want to discuss with you." Qin Shouye felt nervous, a little embarrassed, and a little uneasy. When he spoke, he didn't dare to raise his head, but lowered his head.
Yang Haiyan is playing building blocks with Qin Linyang's children. The building blocks are Xiaoshuai's patterns. They were painted by a painter from the county. They were painted and colored, and then made into pieces. This was just made recently and is conducive to Children's intellectual development.
The kid Qin Linyang just got it, so he likes it so much that he has to fight with his mother several times every time. Just like now, the mother and the mother are working on the puzzle again.
Yang Haiyan raised her eyebrows and said, "Say."
Qin Shouye swallowed his saliva, and his sister-in-law became more and more powerful. He used to think that his sister-in-law was approachable and friendly, but now he is a little afraid to face her, but it may be because of her. For a guilty conscience.
Qin Shouye hesitated, how to speak, when he heard Yang Haiyan say again: "It doesn't matter, we are all our own people, if you have anything to say, just say it. If you feel it's hard to say, you can also say it after a few days. I'll talk to your brother when he comes back."
For example, Sister-in-law, Qin Shouye is even more afraid of Brother Brother, so he no longer hesitates: "Sister-in-law, Miss Xu and I are only allowed to get married for one year, and now the wedding date is up to one year."
When Yang Haiyan heard this, she said: "Indeed, we had agreed to break off the engagement after one year. The reason is that your horoscope will hinder the difficulty of getting married in recent years, and it will also help to improve Xu's reputation. Now that the time has come, then I’ll tell grandma and ask third aunt to go there.”
"No, no, no...that's not what I meant." Qin Shouye said quickly, "Sister-in-law, I don't want to break off the engagement."
"Oh?" Yang Haiyan was a little surprised when she placed the building blocks in the box, and then joked, "Are you looking at Miss Xu?"
Qin Shouye's face gradually turned red, and there was a bit of blush on his wheat-colored face, and he was a little shy: "Well, I have known Miss Xu for a year. As long as Xu Feng is here, I can also I've met her several times and I think she's very kind and virtuous. I... like her and want to marry her. I think this way, her reputation will not be ruined."
Yang Haiyan smiled and said: "Well, when your brother comes back, I will talk to him. Of course, getting married is your lifelong matter. We will not force you, as long as you are willing." "
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Qin Shouye breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister-in-law, I'll go back first."
"Go ahead."
As soon as Qin Shouye came out of the courtyard, he jumped up happily. A person who turns nineteen years old naturally wants to get married. Now that he has Yang Haiyan's approval, how can he not be happy? Qin Shouye was in a good mood and couldn't stay in the general's mansion. He went to the stable to pick up the horse, and then went to the countryside.
On the way to Xu's house, Qin Shouye was looking forward to it more and more.
A few years ago, Xu Lan came to Qin Shouye and talked about their one-year wedding. Xu Lan's intention was that now that the one-year wedding was coming up, he said that it was a fake engagement. , so should I cancel the engagement?
At that time, Qin Shouye was a little stunned. For this year, he has regarded Xu Lan as his fiancée, and suddenly he mentioned the matter of breaking off the engagement, and he was in a bad mood
Then, he heard Xu Lan speak again. Xu Lan said: "Second brother Qin, I really like you. Are you willing to marry me? If you are not willing, then we can cancel the engagement."
Qin Shouye's mood lifted from the lowest point again. He told Xu Lan at that time that he would make it clear to his family. So today, he raised the issue with Yang Haiyan.
