Zhongshan state, Wuji county.
The Zhen family in Jizhou is located in the west of the city. Its residence is broad, simple and heavy, which is extraordinary.
Backyard, a secluded yard.
A woman of 28 years old is reading in the yard. This woman has red lips and green eyebrows. Her eyes are full of eyes. Her skin is as elegant as white jade.
When she sits here, she gives people a sense of quiet and elegant.
This woman is Zhen MI.
She is the youngest in her family, with four married sisters and a living brother. As the apple of the Zhen family's eye, Zhen Mi wants wind and rain at home.
In fact, Zhen MI has a strong voice at home. Not only because she is sensible, knowledgeable and reasonable, but also because she is intelligent and intelligent, and has helped the Zhen family through many difficulties. Under the operation of Zhen MI, the business of the Zhen family did not decline because of the war, but prospered.
Although Zhen MI is young, he has dealt with his family's affairs early.
Even his elder brother, Zhen Yao, was obedient in front of Zhen MI.
"Step on it! Step on it
Suddenly, a sudden sound of footsteps came from outside the yard.
It's Zhen Mi's maid.
The servant girl came to Zhen MI with a curious look in her eyes and said, "girl, I heard that the general sent counsellor Guo Tu to our house and was talking with the third master."
The third master is Zhen Yao.
It was Zhen Yao who was in charge of the Zhen family. Above Zhen Yao, there are actually two elder brothers, but they have passed away. Zhen Yao is the only adult male in the Zhen family.
When Zhen Mi heard the servant girl's words, she laughed and said, "general yuan sent someone here to recruit my elder brother?"
"I don't know!"
The servant girl shook her head and said, "I've arranged for someone to inquire. As soon as I have news, I'll report it immediately."
"That's good!"
Zhen Mi nodded and said nothing more.
She is not a talkative person. She rubs the white paper in her hand and continues to read.
Zhen Mi read a lot.
Not only some miscellaneous notes, but also other business books, biographies and so on, she has dabbled in and learned a lot.
The maid stepped back and left the yard.
Time went by a little bit. About a quarter of an hour later, the servant girl flew in. Her face was not as calm as before. On the contrary, she was quite frightened and said, "girl, it's not good. Something's wrong."
Zhen Mi put down the book and asked, "what happened?"
The servant girl said: "listen to the people waiting outside the hall, Guo Tu came to our house not to recruit the third master to become an official, but to take you as his adopted daughter on behalf of general yuan. General yuan is going to marry you to Taiwei Zhang Xiu. Isn't Yuan Shao buying and selling by force? "
Zhen Mi's eyebrows frowned slightly, but in a twinkling of an eye, the wrinkled brow stretched out again.
Seeing that Zhen MI was not worried at all, the servant girl said, "girl, you are going to be sold by Yuan Shao now. Aren't you worried?"
"What's the use of urgency?"
There was no panic in Zhen Mi's dark and bright eyes. He looked calm and said, "wait a minute, brother will come to see me soon. When it comes to my marriage, my brother won't make a decision without authorization. "
The servant girl said, "but it's Yuan Shao. What shall we do?"
Zhen Mi takes a look at the servant girl. She smiles, gets up and walks away from the yard.
She shouldn't have asked about it.
After a while, footsteps came from outside the yard. A nearly 30-year-old, handsome, soft, even slightly weak man strode into.
This person is Zhen Yao.
He is Zhen Mi's third brother.
Compared with his dead second brother, Zhen Yan, Zhen Yao is much worse in means, character and even courage. He is only a Chinese talent.
In fact, it is difficult for such a person to control the Zhen family. It is Zhen Mi who gives advice behind the scenes that makes the Zhen family what it is today. When Zhen Yao entered, his face was slightly weak. He sat down in front of Zhen MI with a soft look and said slowly, "little sister!"
"What's the matter, brother?" said Zhen MI
Zhen Yao scratched his head, a pair of words and stop appearance, words to the mouth, but swallow back.
"What's the matter, brother?" said Zhen MI
Zhen Yao took a deep breath and said, "Yuan Shao, a media protector, hopes to promote the marriage between our Zhen family and Zhang Xiu in Guanzhong. For this reason, Yuan Shao is willing to accept his younger sister as her adopted daughter. "
Zhen Mi snorted and said, "I'm afraid Yuan Shao wants to use my Zhen family to make me a pawn. What else can he say about media protection. Does the Zhen family have room to refuse such an insurance agent as him? "
"I'm afraid not!"
Zhen Yao scratched his head and said, "in today's situation, the Zhen family has no room for resistance. You know, Yuan Shao is a great general, and he said a lot in Jizhou. Our Zhen family and Yuan Shao fought against each other. In the end, it was us who suffered. Even if the Zhen family is a famous family, they are businessmen after all. Yuan Shao can destroy our Zhen family with just one order. "Zhen Mi said, "brother, do you mean to agree to this marriage?"
"I, I..."
When the words came to his mouth, Zhen Yao said, "little sister, I'll listen to you. As long as you don't want to, I will reject Guo Tu immediately. Now, Guo Tu is still at home, so I refuse him directly. I don't believe it. What can Yuan Shao do with our Zhen family? "
Zhen Mi said, "I appreciate your kindness. If you can't resist it, let it be. What's more, Zhang Xiu is a Taiwei. It's not a shame to marry her as a concubine. Better be a heroic concubine than a mediocre wife. I agree to the marriage. "
"Good, good!"
On hearing this, Zhen Yao let out a sigh of relief.
He's in the middle. He's in a real dilemma. His original intention is to follow Zhen Mi's advice. However, Yuan Shao is a general who controls the power of Jizhou. If he resists, it will be the Zhen family who will suffer.
So in his heart, Zhen Yao hoped that Zhen Mi would agree. Zhen Yao stood up and said, "I'm going to reply Guo Tu and ask him to send a letter back."
Zhen Mi nods, picks up the book on the front desk and continues to read. Zhen Mi doesn't seem to have any feelings about getting married. Because she knows a truth, since can't avoid, can only face.
It doesn't help to abandon oneself.
Zhen Mi also knows about Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Xiu married Huang Yueying and later Cao Cao's daughter. Zhang Xiu killed Xiongnu, defeated Cao Cao, beheaded Li Xi and killed Guo Si, all of which Zhen Mi knew.
After all, in the hands of Zhen MI, he controls the information system of the Zhen family and is well-informed.
I just didn't expect to marry Zhang Xiu.
In this regard, Zhen Mi does not contradict.
With her family background, she may not be able to choose her own marriage. Finally, it is in the interests of the family to get married. So it's not a shame to marry such a hero as Zhang Xiu.
