Chapter 414: Zhou Wenya

Zhoufu

As soon as Zhou Dehong returned to the mansion, he asked his servants, "Where's the master?"

"In the back garden!" the servant replied.

He hurried to the back garden.

Before we got to the back garden, I heard the melodious sound of the piano coming from the pavilion.

In the gazebo, there was a woman in a pink and purple dress.

I saw that she was wearing a Chaoyang five-phoenix bun, a pearl hairpin slanted on the top of her head, and her skin was fair.

Round and delicate ears, a round broad and white forehead, a pair of carefully curvy eyebrows, a small and straight nose, red lips, and long open eyelashes.

At this moment, the woman lowered her eyes, and a pair of slender hands as white as green onions were plucking the strings and singing softly!

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and lifted the soft gauze curtain in the pavilion. At the same time, the wind swept across the woman's forehead, her black hair fluttered, and her robe fluttered, as if seeing a fairy in a fairyland. Dreamy.

The scene of this beautiful woman playing the piano made people from afar be a little stunned.

He listened to the melodious sound of the piano, his eyes fixed on the beauty on the pavilion, and did not dare to move, for fear that if he made a sound, he would scare the beauty away.

I don't know how long it took, when the song came to an end, the woman seemed to hear the movement and immediately raised her head, a pair of moving and beautiful eyes came in front of the person, she didn't seem surprised when she saw the person, her red lips lightly parted, and she let out a faint cry. , "Father!" The voice was pleasant to the ear, but it didn't seem to have any emotion.

That's right, this woman is Zhou Wenya, who is known as the most beautiful and talented woman in the capital.

She is also the eldest daughter of Zhou Dehong.

Zhou Dehong reacted, coughed softly twice, walked over and said, "The sound of the piano played by Ya'er is even more pleasant to the ear, making my father forget everything around me, my daughter is worthy of being the number one in the capital. Talented girl!"

Sitting next to him, a white-bearded old man, Zhou Zhenlin, also known as Zhou Dehong's father, immediately bluffed his face and said, "We Ya'er are truly the number one beauty and the most talented girl, what is the name, nonsense!"

Immediately, he said to Zhou Wenya amiably again, "Ya'er, you should be tired, go down and rest!"

Looking at Zhou Dehong's hurried look, he knew that Zhou Dehong must have something to tell him.

However, there are some things that the Zhou family has always kept from Zhou Wenya.

Zhou Wenya's beauty and talent are the bargaining chips for their Zhou family to compete for power.

Their purpose now is to put Zhou Wenya on the throne of the queen, then give birth to a dragon son, and then...

Zhou Wenya knew very well the meaning of her existence in the Zhou family.

The Zhou family spent a lot of resources, spent countless money on her, and tried their best to cultivate her, which is nothing more than turning her into a tool for use.

However, she didn't care at all.

Children born in large families know their own destiny very well from birth.

Either it will become a valuable tool, or it will directly become an abandoned son that the family does not want.

For those who are of value, the family will give you the most resources and the glory of your family. Then, you will have infinite glory. After that, you may marry and become a marriage tool for the family, or be sent to the palace as a concubine, but no matter which one. The species are all conducive to the development of the power of the family.

And these married women, with a strong family to rely on, will have the confidence in the husband's family, and live a good life as a young grandmother or a concubine under one person, and a concubine under ten thousand people.

To put it bluntly, they and the family are just mutual use of the relationship.

Zhou Wenya understands her mission very well!

That is to be a queen!

Her goal is also the position of the mother in the world!

Therefore, she is beautiful, and she is serious about learning talents!

Zhou Wenya got up lightly, and then said to the two of them very elegantly and respectfully, "Grandpa, Daddy, Ya'er retire!"

Zhou Zhenlin and Zhou Dehong looked at the distant shadow, and took their eyes back lightly.

Zhou Zhenlin said with a sullen face, and asked directly, "Tell me, I went to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and came here in such a hurry. What happened to make you so panicked?"

Zhou Dehong looked at his father's calm face, looked around, and then lowered his head and said to his father, "Dad, Jiang Zhennan went to the town hall to attend the wedding banquet."

Zhou Zhenlin said very indifferently, "Jiang Zhennan is Jiang Yunfeng's eldest son, and his younger brother is married. Isn't it normal to participate as an older brother?"

Jiang Zhennan is the general of Zhenguo, who holds one-third of the military power of Longyan Kingdom. It is Jiang Yunfeng, the fool, who will push this talented and powerful son far away.

He didn't even think about it. He also had a daughter. If he sent his daughter to the palace as a concubine and gave birth to half a son, and the eldest son had military power, then it would be easy for that child to sit on the throne. Things.

At that time, he will be able to be a powerful uncle of the country, which would be great.

It's just a pity, that Jiang Yunfeng's eyelids are too shallow, and he hates his eldest son so much for the title of the duke of Zhenguo, and he even wishes that he would disappear.

Zhou Zhenlin just sighed and said secretly, "I would like to thank Jiang Yunfeng for that pig brain, otherwise, their Zhou family would have another strong enemy! But now, Jiang Yunfeng is a bit stupid, but with the prestige of his government, he became an ally. It can!"

Zhou Dehong didn't know his father's inner thoughts, he just said truthfully, "Jiang Zhennan went to attend the wedding banquet at the town's palace, but he brought his fiancee there!"

"What?" Zhou Zhenlin stood up from his seat in surprise.

"bump!"

There was movement in the corner of a garden.

"Who?" Zhou Zhenlin shouted sternly.

"Meow..." A cat ran out of the corner and jumped directly into another flower.

Zhou Dehong said, "Dad, it's a cat!"

Zhou Zhenlin nodded and asked suspiciously, "What is the origin of that woman?"

Zhou Dehong shook his head, "Jiang Zhennan just introduced that the woman is his fiancee, but what makes everyone more curious is that the woman also appeared in front of everyone wearing a mask!" This is what made him puzzled.

"Father, do you think that is because, like Jiang Zhennan, he is too ugly and needs to use a mask to cover his face?"

Zhou Zhenlin said sharply, "We don't care whether she is ugly or not. What I want to know is why that woman makes Jiang Zhennan treat her differently. Based on the old man's guess, there must be something about the woman you are talking about. Extraordinary."

Zhou Dehong heard what his father said, and hurriedly told Zhou Zhenlin what the woman had done when she was in the town hall.

After Zhou Zhenlin heard it, he was silent for a moment, and asked in a deep voice, "You said that the third prince suffered a big loss in front of that woman?"

Zhou Dehong nodded and said, "Yes, she gave the third prince a charge of using imperial power to deceive others and frame innocent people, and in the public eye, the third prince had to bow his head and apologize."

Zhou Zhenlin stroked his long white beard lightly, and asked again without any expression, "That woman is still slapping Jiang Zhenye brothers and sisters in public, and people can't tell whether one is coming, is it?"

"Yes!" Zhou Dehong nodded and replied, "The most incredible thing is that the woman was still in the public and poisoned Jiang Zhenye and Jiang Wen and his sisters. Although the poison was light and not fatal, it was just a stench from her mouth. , In front of so many nobles, especially when the third prince and the eldest grandson were still present, she poisoned them without any scruples.

Dad, do you think she has Jiang Zhennan's backing, and Jiang Zhennan seems to let her do what she does, so she is so lawless at the wedding banquet? "

Zhou Zhenlin didn't speak, tapped the stone table on the pavilion with one hand, and stroked the white beard with the other, as if he was thinking deeply.

Then, he shook his head and said with certainty, "No! She must not be so arrogant because Jiang Zhennan is behind her! She must have this ability, or a hole card, let her know that even if she offends there Any one of you can get away with it!

Also, Hong'er, you should have found out by yourself that Jiang Yunfeng and his wife, his wife and son, and the third prince, and you were there to help, but none of them could beat that woman's sharp mouth. . "

Zhou Dehong said with some doubts, "So, what does Dad mean?"

"This kind of unrestrained, unscrupulous, but people can't catch any mistakes. A woman who is extremely smart will definitely not be cultivated by ordinary people. Hong'er, you immediately send someone to investigate the origin of this woman, maybe this woman , or even the family behind her, will be the only weakness for us to fight for Jiang Zhennan to stand in the camp of the Third Prince.

Also, remember: if you can first not offend her, try not to offend her, even to please or curry favor. Unless it's a last resort..." Zhou Zhenlin wiped his neck.

Knowing the importance of the matter, Zhou Dehong immediately said very cautiously, "Yes, Dad, my son will order it well!"

"Yeah!" Zhou Zhenlin nodded with satisfaction.

Immediately, he seemed to think of something again, and asked, "I heard that Zhou Wencai refused the place given to Yingtian Academy by the Zhou family, but he still entered Yingtian Academy, didn't he?"

Being reminded of this by his father, Zhou Dehong seemed to be thinking of something bad. He frowned and said angrily, "That Zhou Wencai really doesn't know what is good or bad. Our Zhou family has two places in the academy. , I finally gave him one.

Well, he refused! "

"But he refused, he still entered Yingtian Academy!" Zhou Zhenlin stared deeply at his eldest son, and said sharply, "Don't think about it, he belongs to the Zhou family, without the Zhou family, How did he get into the academy?"

For this eldest son, the heir to the Zhou family, who he personally cultivated, Zhou Zhenlin really hated that iron could not become steel.

Not very smart, but so impulsive and irritable, doing anything for himself.

With such a character, there is a piece of the country sent to him, and he also thinks that he is deceiving, instead of directly taking it and becoming his real country.

He was secretly worried, would he, the heir of the Zhou family, who had spent endless efforts to cultivate, really have the ability to inherit the Zhou family?

Will he cause trouble for the Zhou family a hundred years later?

In order to avoid the decline of the Zhou family in the future, he was reluctant to hand over the position of the head of the family in order to make arrangements for the future of the Zhou family as much as possible.

He can be considered a good-hearted person for the Zhou family.

Hearing his father's reprimand, Zhou Dehong was immediately stunned, and then he reacted that he had really done something wrong.

Soon he bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "Father, I know I'm wrong!"

Zhou Zhenlin asked seriously, "Where did you go wrong?"

"My mistake was being too careless." Zhou Dehong realized his mistake and said, "I knew that Zhou Wencai rejected the Zhou family's kindness, but after he was still able to study in the academy, he didn't ask anyone to investigate. Zhou Wen Behind Cai, who is helping him, or what forces are supporting him? Are we enemies or friends with our Zhou family, etc..."

Hearing that Zhou Dehong finally realized his mistake, Zhou Zhenlin finally felt some comfort.

"This heir is not incurable!" This was to shake the heart of changing heirs, and he immediately returned to his original position!

After all, raising an heir is not that simple.

He is so old, Zhou Dehong has been the heir since he was a child, if he really wants to change people, his rebound will definitely be the biggest.

What's more, Zhou Dehong has a younger sister who is the most favored concubine in the palace, his nephew is the favored third prince, and he has a stunning beauty who is very likely to be the eldest daughter of the queen. It is impossible for Zhou Zhenlin to abolish Zhou Dehong's heir position at will.

Otherwise, the first person to disagree is the one in the palace!

Zhou Zhenlin nodded again with slight satisfaction, and said, "Since you want to understand, then send someone to dig out the forces behind that stinky boy. If it is an enemy, eradicate it as soon as possible. If it is possible to use it, become an ally. Get their support, you know?"

Zhou Dehong immediately responded respectfully, "Yes, the child must send someone to investigate!"

"Well, you go down! Dad is tired, rest here for a while!"

"Yes!"

In the Zimei courtyard of the Zhou family, as soon as Zhou Wenya entered the house, she immediately closed the door in a hurry.

At this moment, the beautiful face showed a trace of anxiety and a trace of unwillingness.

The personal maid Xiaocui looked at the usually calm and calm eldest lady, with such an expression, she immediately stepped forward and asked with concern, "Miss, what's the matter with you? What happened to this flustered appearance?"

After Zhou Wenya leaned against the door for a while, she slowly moved to the table. Xiao Cui immediately poured her a glass of water and said, "Miss, drink a glass of water first!"

Zhou Wenya took the water cup, took two sips, and then said, "Xiao Cui, does he have a fiancee?"

Xiao Cui was stunned for a moment, and then she reacted, "Miss, you mean, big..., do you have a fiancée?"

Zhou Wenya nodded lightly and said, "That's right! I heard what Daddy and Grandpa said with my own ears!"

Xiao Cui was very surprised and said, "This...how is this possible?" Didn't it mean that the fate of the evil star can't marry a daughter-in-law?

"Yes, it's impossible!" Zhou Wenya suddenly threw the cup in her hand and shouted like crazy, "Impossible! How could he have a fiancée? Didn't it mean that no woman in the capital would dare to marry him? Where did his fiancée come from? How could he have a fiancée?"

There was a strong glare in her eyes, she was unwilling and angry, and even had a determination to destroy it if she couldn't get it!

Seeing that the young lady in her family changed her appearance as soon as she encountered that person, she immediately persuaded in a frightened whisper, "Miss, keep your voice down, but don't let people listen to you!" Otherwise, the old man The eldest will definitely be punished severely!

But Zhou Wenya kept talking, "How can he have a fiancée? How can he have a fiancée?..."

...

After Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan returned to the farm, they knew that today because of her unexpected appearance, many people had been eyeing her.

Perhaps many people think that she will become Jiang Zhennan's weakness.

Therefore, in the future, this Grange may be very lively.

only……

Lin Yuelan sneered and said, "When they come, does this girl have to wait at the Grange to pick them up?"

Jiang Zhennan also expected this problem, he took Lin Yuelan's hand and said,

"Yue'er, I won't let anyone come to disturb you!"

His Yue'er, why should they see each other whenever they want.

So, as long as his Yue'er didn't want to see anyone, he wouldn't let anyone disturb Yue'er.

Lin Yuelan shook her head and said, "Don't worry, I didn't plan to stay in this farm all the time. When I leave, even if they want to come, they won't be able to find it."

Hearing what Lin Yuelan said, Jiang Zhennan immediately remembered that Lin Yuelan was in Zhoushan City and made an agreement with Li Fazhi, the richest man in Zhoushan, to go to the rough stone development field in the spring.

Jiang Zhennan thought about it for a while anyway, and he went with Lin Yuelan if there was nothing to do with him as a general.

Jiang Zhennan nodded and said, "Well, that's true!"

The two have a tacit understanding. Although they did not say it, the two seem to have agreed on this.

In the next few days, Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan began to be completely busy.
