Episode 5 The Home Change of the Lady of the Marquis
Episode 5 Miss Marquis’s Family Change
In the evening, in the study room of the Marquis of Changping, Zheng Yucong was reprimanding his father and brother. Zheng Gongyin's face flushed red and he kept licking his dry lips, trying to regain some dignity as a father, but his daughter kept criticizing every word, and he suddenly
This is a very poor idea.
"Dad," Zheng Yucong said sadly, "you said that you are already a grown-up, but why are you still so ignorant? Can you think of such a bad idea? You want to overthrow me? Well, my daughter admires your ambition, but just
Are those two bad ideas that you came up with ruined? Now Sir Xiang’s holy family is prospering, but our family’s holy family is declining, don’t you understand? It’s just now that you want to provoke Sir Xiang!...Yuhuacong Company
It's still in my name, but it looks like I'm the mastermind, and people tell you..."
Zheng Gongyin couldn't bear it when she heard her saying, "My lord, sir!" and slapped the table and cursed:
"The one in your name? The one in your name was also given to you by me! This thing is becoming less and less big! Why didn't I know that Xiang Xiaoqiang's holy family is prosperous? If he is not prosperous, I will be full.
Go provoke him!...I didn't say that I could bring down Xiang Xiaoqiang. I just said that through this incident, His Majesty would have some opinions about him. That's what three people are like. As long as the Metropolitan Procuratorate can be there
If he finds something there and criticizes it in the newspaper, that's fine! As long as His Majesty can feel that he has misjudged the person and no longer obeys Xiang Xiaoqiang, then his edict will always be a piece of waste paper! ...These things, you
What does a girl know?"
Zheng Yuqing snorted contemptuously:
"I said, Dad, you have a beautiful idea, but don't you see what your bad idea is!... We haven't just met the two of you, and you are hurriedly sending cars and gems to them.
Your Excellency is not a fool!"
Zheng Yutang said proudly:
"Think? It's just me and my dad. The two gifts we chose are for the upstart Xiaoqiang. Can he recognize it? Can he think it through? Several newspapers will publish it tomorrow. Yuhuacong Company can't stand the People's Guards
The commander keeps asking for bribes and exposes them to the press, hum!"
Zheng Yucong mocked:
"Yes, Sir Xiang is a nouveau riche. If people don't recognize me, then no one in the entire People's Guard will recognize me!"
Zheng Yutang said curiously:
"Hey, the entire People's Guard is full of upstarts. Even Xiang Xiaoqiang doesn't recognize them. Who else does?"
Zheng Yuqing said coldly:
"Princess Liaoyang is not a nouveau riche, right? Don't forget, Princess Liaoyang is under Mr. Xiang's command!"
At the mention of Princess Liaoyang, Zheng Yutang was filled with hatred. At the fortress dance, she and Shang Rong were competing to pursue Princess Liaoyang. Xiang Xiaoqiang looked like a very trustworthy person, and she was planning to ask him for help! Unexpectedly,
This boy has such a skill that he transferred the princess to him as his subordinate with just one sentence. His Majesty was actually willing to approve it! Princess Liaoyang was actually willing to go! Could it be that this boy was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, and wanted to eat the swan after disturbing the toad?
Thoughts of meat?
But Zheng Yucong clapped his fingers and continued:
"Don't think that you two are the only ones in the world who can recognize gems! Princess Liaoyang is a princess from the Northern Qing Dynasty, and she also grew up in jewelry piles. What gems don't you recognize? Even if you haven't seen the raw materials, won't you find an expert to look at it? Let's take a look.
What you did!... It's just Pu'er tea, but you actually put gems in candy boxes! You think you are smart! Are you so short-sighted? You don't even need to taste it. As soon as you get it in your hand, you will know it's not a candy bar! It's not a candy bar.
What is it?... It’s hard for people not to think about gems! For sure, Master Xiang called Princess Liaoyang to see him with just one word! Princess Liaoyang and Master Xiang are a pair of great people!
Get together, just your little tricks, hum, it’s not that I underestimated you, you exposed it in two seconds!"
Zheng Yutang made such a simple analysis with her fingers, and her father and brother became silent. Gradually, they all felt that what she said made sense, and that it was really the case. Zheng Yutang said in a daze:
"Then...what should we do?"
Zheng Gongyin pondered for a moment and said fiercely:
"Ignore him, the newspapers will be out tomorrow anyway! Early tomorrow morning, the people from Yuhuacong will go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to report! I asked the people from Yuhuacong to guard the door of the Metropolitan Procuratorate from early morning, and as soon as the door opens
Just go in and report! As long as he can get in before Xiang Xiaoqiang's people, he will be completely passive!"
Zheng Yuqing sneered and said:
"If I want Sir Xiang, I will go to the palace to see His Majesty tonight! After meeting His Majesty, I will tell you everything, who do you think Your Majesty will believe? When the Metropolitan Procuratorate starts investigating Mr. Xiang tomorrow, the newspapers will cover him up all over again.
Dirty water, how much do you think your majesty will sympathize with him? How sorry will you feel for him?... If they find out that Yuhuacong Company is under my name, and tell your majesty together, then it will be considered as someone who has stolen the goods! If your majesty...
Even I hate it, huh, our family is really over!"
Father and son Zheng Gongyin and Zheng Yutang looked at each other. The two grown men were very unconvinced. The plan they had worked so hard to come up with was completely criticized by a girl in the family. Zheng Gongyin valued his only son the most, but he had the clearest mind.
It is always the daughter who has the most ideas. This has always made Zheng Yutang very unconvinced, and also made Zheng Gongyin very unwilling. If her daughter Zheng Yucong was not the best friend of His Majesty, and relied on her to win over His Majesty, Zheng Yucong would never be able to have his current status in the family.
She has long been as honest as her younger sisters. So her last sentence, "If Your Majesty even wants to hate me, our family will be really doomed." The father and son were both convinced and helpless.
"It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over," Zheng Yutang pointed at her sister and shouted, "Dad, I have long said that our Ming Dynasty was the one who scolded the chicken Si Chen. Look, now even our family has to scold the chicken Si Chen.
!It’s over!”
Zheng Yuqing let out a "ha" sound and laughed at her brother:
"Tsk, tsk, 'hen chicken sichen' can be pronounced as 'chicken sichen', haha, you are really knowledgeable!"
Zheng Yutang was very proud of herself for using an idiom, but her face turned red with shame and she was about to stare. Zheng Gongyin stopped him, stared at her daughter, and said bravely:
"Now that things have happened, what do you think we should do?"
Zheng Yuqing lowered her head, thought for a while, suddenly felt guilty, and said hesitantly:
"At this point, if I want to... save our family, I can only... I can only..."
"Only what?"
"I can only...hope to Mr. Xiang...well, they won't care about us and just agree to let it go."
Zheng Yutang looked up at the sky, sneered and said:
"That's great. It's like I didn't say anything."
Zheng Gongyin stared at her daughter and asked:
"Why can Xiang Xiaoqiang take advantage of someone like this?"
Zheng Yuqing looked around and said with a guilty conscience:
"Well, because...we can...invite Mr. Xiang here, and we can...have a meal...talk..."
"absurd!"
Zheng Gongyin slammed the table so hard that the tea in the cup spilled out. He said loudly:
"I, Zheng Gongyin, am the prince of Yanping after all, and a relative of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Why do you ask me to beg him in such a low voice because of such a trivial matter?... How come you can say anything?"
Zheng Yutang immediately shouted:
"It's over, it's over, Dad, did you see it? Your daughter likes Xiang Xiaoqiang!"
Zheng Yucong's face was red and her ears were red, and she said sharply:
"Zheng Yutang, you are talking nonsense! You...you..."
Zheng Yutang said proudly:
"What's wrong with me? Do you think I can't see it?... Humph, I saw it right at the dance. The way you looked at Xiaoqiang was different from others! During the whole dance, you were dancing with others and your eyes were looking around.
You were still busy dancing with Xiang Xiaoqiang. You lowered your head, your face was red, and you didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. Is that so? Hum, I saw it all!"
"Absurd!" Zheng Gongyin slapped the table again, his face flushed with anger, and he cursed, "Nonsense! Shameless! You thing, you...you said, what your brother said is true?"
Zheng Yucong's face was on fire, she was ashamed and angry, shedding tears, stamping her feet and crying:
"You're talking nonsense! Zheng Yutang, don't slander me like this! Yes, I...I see that Xiang is capable, but I don't like him either!...Don't say I don't like him, so what if I do? Women do.
A capable man, what’s there to be ashamed of?”
Zheng Yutang was stunned, Zheng Gongyin was so angry that his lips trembled and he murmured:
"You...tell me again..."
Zheng Yucong wiped her tears and laughed while crying:
"I said Mr. Xiang is capable, what's the matter?... Mr. Xiang can rescue twelve people from Qinglu's sticky pole by himself. Do you have that ability?... Mr. Xiang can only bring a dozen people with him. That's it.
Go to Beiqing and bring back the big boss from Sticking Gate. Do you have what it takes?... The Yangtze River defense line has been broken, but I can still defend Nanjing. Do you have what it takes? When the Qing rebels came over, I fought bravely.
If we fight against him, you will only encourage His Majesty to run away and conspire to kidnap His Majesty. You will destroy the Holy Family yourself and blame Xiang Your Majesty! Your Majesty Xiang has the Holy Family because they were fighting for the defense of Nanjing! ... You two grown men.
, No one is as capable as Mr. Xiang, and he can only conspire behind the scenes... Hum, you don't even have the ability to conspire... You... If you put them together, if there is someone who is even half as capable as Mr. Xiang, I can respect you.
!”
Zheng Yutang jumped up and down, shouting:
"Rebellion! Rebellious! Dad, this is your daughter, do you care?!"
Zheng Gongyin's old face was burning red and he was so angry that he was dizzy. He didn't know what he was saying and couldn't refute a word.
Zheng Yuqing said she was happy, sobbed loudly, stood upright in the study room, and stared at them.
Zheng Gongyin finally slapped the table and said through gritted teeth:
"We can't keep this thing! ... The prince of Siam has long wanted to come and propose marriage to our Zheng family. Just in time, he simply agreed to him! I'll marry you to Siam! Humph, you can also get a seal before marrying.
Princess, if you get married, you can become the queen, so it won’t be a loss!”
Zheng Yutang was startled:
"Dad, Siam...isn't that place a little far away?"
Zheng Gongyin pointed at Zheng Yucong with trembling hands and said to his son:
"This thing, do you still miss her? Marry her far away, out of sight!"
"Dad," Zheng Yutang said, "why don't you marry your sister into Prince Shang's palace, to that boy Shang Rong... The Shang family has also wanted to marry our Zheng family for a long time, and now that we take the initiative to bring it up, they will go crazy with joy! Chen
The concubine also likes her sister, so she won’t be upset if she marries her... It also saves that boy Shang Rong from competing with your son for the Princess of Liaoyang, how about that?"
Zheng Gongyin was so angry that he just hummed:
"Well, that's not bad!"
Zheng Yuqing burst into tears, looking at her father and brother in disbelief, listening to them casually disposing of her life as if they were selling things. Her heart felt like being pierced by countless daggers, a sharp pain, and a blur in front of her eyes.
Black, almost fainting.
Without saying a word, she turned around and was about to push the door open and walk out.
"Stop!" Zheng Gongyin pointed at her and shouted, "Stop!"
Zheng Yutang immediately jumped up, stopped in front of her sister, and closed the study door.
Zheng Yuqing said angrily:
"what are you doing!"
Zheng Gongyin slowly stood up from the chair and said in a sweet voice:
"Qing Cong, from tonight onwards, stay in the back garden for me and don't go anywhere. Once I have negotiated with the King of Ryukyu or the King of Siam, we will hold a happy event directly!... Come here
People!"
The maid came in. Zheng Gongyin ordered several guards to be summoned, and took her daughter into custody, locked her up in her own show room in the back garden, and placed her under house arrest.
