MTL - My Parents Are Omnipotent-Chapter 418 more expensive
The reason is actually very simple. Her cousin and the grandnephew of the former empress dowager's natal family are already married, and there will be a special inspection when they enter the palace. , so I had to send Han Jieyu, who was not very smart, into the palace.
As for why the Han girl married the grandnephew of the former empress dowager’s family?
When this incident happened, the Han family was still living under the hands of the Empress Dowager Da Zhou.
At that time, they were the aristocratic families who could rank among the top 20 in the capital. In order to maintain their original glory and wealth under the circumstances that the Queen's Party overshadowed the sky, they chose to take the initiative to cling to the Empress Dowager's natal family.
The unlucky Miss Han was chosen by her family as a marriage partner, and they wanted to promise her to the eldest grandson of the queen mother.
Although the other party is greedy, lustful and domineering, he is the most trusted and relied on junior by the Queen Mother and her elder brother.
The Han family had a good plan, but the queen mother's grandnephew didn't want to marry a girl from the Han family as his wife.
He took a fancy to the beauty and talent of that girl Han, but he didn't like the Han family as a wife family.
Later, he resorted to some tricks and got married with that Han girl, but because his wife hadn't entered the house yet, he didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't immediately bring that Han girl into the mansion.
Although the Han family failed to become the wives of the empress dowager's nephew and grandson, they received support and protection from the empress dowager's natal family. They weighed it in private and felt that the deal was not a loss.
Having benefited, the Han family also acquiesced in this practice of the empress dowager's nephew.
Their original plan with the empress dowager's nephew was to wait until the empress dowager's grandnephew married a regular wife, and then their Han family and the empress dowager's nephew would work together to devise a scene in which the girl Han accidentally fell into the water and the empress dowager's nephew happened to pass by as a hero to save the beauty.
Rescuing those who fell into the water will inevitably have skin-to-skin contact with the other party. At that time, the empress dowager's nephew can use the excuse of "being forced to ruin the girl's innocence" to let the Han girl marry into the Han family as his concubine in the name of repaying her kindness.
Their plan was pretty good, but it's a pity that before they could implement the plan, the capital of Da Zhou had already been breached by the Xie family.
Xie Yuan's soldiers entered the city so fast that the Queen Mother and her own family ran away together. Those who were led by them were all the core queen party members, not including peripheral personnel like the Han family.
The Han family scolded the world at first, but later found that Xie Yuan had no intention of purging the former officials in the capital. Even as long as you have the ability and no criminal record, Xie Yuan doesn't mind giving you a suitable position to continue. Shining and glowing, the Han family suddenly felt that they were really a blessing in disguise and got lucky.
They consciously hid the Han family members who had criminal records, and then picked a few innocent Han family members who had never done anything bad to participate in the court assessment.
After all, the Han family is a family of officials and eunuchs that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and they are still very attentive to the cultivation of the children of the family. In this era of appallingly low literacy rates, the cultural level of the children of the Han family can easily make them stand out. It was favored by the examiner.
This also led to the fact that even after the founding of Da Qi, the Han family was still a relatively influential official family in the court.
Similar to their situation, there are also the natal families of the other three concubines in Xie Yuan's harem.
These four people have all kinds of status from concubines to concubines, but without exception, they were all specially selected by Xie Yuan to appease the old officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The other four who entered the palace at the same time as them were all from families of upstarts. They had fathers, brothers or uncles who served in the court, and they themselves were relatively outstanding direct bloodlines in the family.
These four people are just the opposite of the previous four people. These four people are used by Xie Yuan to show his favor to his former department, which is now the upstart of Daqi.
No one knows how when Xie Yuan agreed to choose a concubine, he was repeatedly swiped by Ye Anlan's "emperor's suffering" back and forth _(:з"∠)_
***
The palace banquet finally came to an end under the weird atmosphere where the queen was speechless, the concubines were angry, and the family members had their own thoughts, but the aftermath of this incident had just begun.
Because of the timely stop of the queen and Wang Zhaoyi's family, as well as the blunt refusal of Mrs. Pei and Li, other families who were originally on the list of Wang Zhaoyi and these two Jieyu's matchmakers were temporarily spared.
After leaving the palace, these people who managed to escape, and other people who heard about the farce at the palace banquet, coincidentally accelerated the marriage speed of their single people of the right age.
Even Zheng Fengshou, who had no intention of getting married at all, was caught by Mrs. Li and forced to think about his own lifelong affairs.
Wen Liuniang also encountered sudden marriage urging. She was different from Yang Xiaotao. Yang Xiaotao had family members to worry about, but Wen Liuniang had only Ye Anlan, the former lord, to take care of her.
Mrs. Li knew that Ye Anlan had no sense of being a matchmaker, so after urging Zheng Fengshou, she went to Wen Liuniang's again.
Coincidentally, when she passed by, Wen Liuniang was dealing with a group of distant relatives who were far away from her.
Both of Wen Liuniang's parents died, and her uncles in the family were also very distantly related by blood. Otherwise, she would not have chosen to stay with Ye Anlan to earn a living by herself when she avenged her father.
After so many years of living at ease, Wen Liuniang thought that she would definitely be more at ease in the future, after all, she has already become famous and successful.
However, what she didn't expect was that some relatives from her father's and mother's lines came to her door after she received the reward.
If it’s just to fight the autumn wind, since they are indeed related to Wen Liuniang’s parents to a certain extent, Wen Liuniang doesn’t mind helping them a little bit.
Even if they are here to ask for an official, as long as they don't violate Daqi's laws and Xie Yuan's employment principles, she doesn't mind helping them introduce one or two, and be a qualified stepping stone.
But these people, they are actually here to make decisions for Wen Liuniang
After self-certification and living in the Hou Mansion, these people began to make progress day by day.
They first came to Wen Liuniang every day to test their favorability, and found that the other party didn't have much time to listen to their nonsense. In order to achieve their goals as soon as possible, these people had no choice but to give up playing the emotional card first.
Taking advantage of the big winter solstice festival, before Wen Liuniang leaves for business in the morning, this group of people starts to talk to Wen Liuniang about their marriage.
Wen Liuniang found out that her group of distant relatives had been holding on to her all this time, and then they didn't say what they were here for, in order to get her idea of the female marquis.
