"It seems that I'm still a step late..." Liu Tao came to the mourning hall, and the person who received him was Zhen Yu, after all, Zhen Yi's eldest son. Even if he was only eighteen years old, he had to take charge of everything because he was about to become the head of the family.

He may not be able to become the leader of the Zhen family in Zhongshan, but he is the head of the Zhen Yi family. After all, the other children have not yet separated.

"I originally planned to come over to treat him, I'm sorry." Liu Tao apologized to Zhen Yu solemnly, and his posture must be given enough.

"No, the prefect doesn't need to be like this." Zhen Yu quickly helped Liu Tao up, "My father's illness comes quickly and worsens quickly. When we realized that the situation was critical, we didn't expect that after only three days, with a snowfall, my father left."

It was only a few days ago that others rushed from the clouds to Zhongshan in the winter snow. As far as the journey was concerned, they knew that others were doing their best to go on the road. In this case, no one was qualified to take responsibility for Liu Tao, and even said thank you.

Thank you for traveling thousands of miles and coming from the clouds in the middle of winter. This intention is enough.

After all, Liu Tao is just the engagement dealer of the Zhen family. He and Zhen Jiang have not yet married. Zhen Yu is very clear that Zhen Jiang is indeed too young, and even if he can get married, he is a little worried as his brother. The initial agreement was made for three years, which was based on this principle.

Under the leadership of Zhen Yu, Liu Tao entered the mourning hall. Zhen Jiang was already lying on the coffin and cried. Zhang slowly came to her side in white clothes and comforted her with words.

It turns out that "women should be pretty and filial." Zhang is also in his thirties this year. His mature temperament and white filial piety clothes can directly awaken the male's primitive impulse. Or the male itself cannot figure out whether he is protecting or conquering her at this moment, or both.

Speaking of which, Zhang never remarries after Zhen Yi's death, but just silently raises Zhen Yi's children. From this perspective, she is a qualified and even excellent wife and mother.

"Deran pays homage to his mother..." Liu Tao stepped forward to salute. There is no such thing as father-in-law or mother-in-law, nor is there any such thing as father-in-law and mother-in-law, or Taishan and Taishui.

Even Dong Cheng is the cousin of Emperor Xian of Han, and at the same time, because Concubine Dong is his father-in-law. In "The Three Kingdoms", the title "Emperor Xian's uncle, General Dong Cheng, the chariot and cavalry" is used.

Later, when Pei Songzhi made notes on the Three Kingdoms, he said that he would use this title because there was no such title as "Father-in-law".

Liu Tao didn't know what title should be used, and it was not easy to use it rashly, so he used the title of "mother". Anyway, even in modern times, it is normal to call his father-in-law and mother-in-law like this.

"Deran, I didn't expect that you would have a good time and you would go there in person. I'm so sorry." Zhang looked back at Liu Tao, saluted him, and then apologized to him.

It can be guessed that it was her daughter begging her, so she had to come. But being able to come also means that he really cared about Zhen Jiang, which moved her very much.

Zhen Yi's death means that the patriarch will have to re-choose, and Zhen Yi's status in the Zhen family is naturally not as good as before. If the sidelines become the patriarch in the end, he may have to re-discuss the marriage matter and arrange a marriage partner.

It is even possible that Zhen Jiang will go from a eldest wife to a dowry daughter of other tribesmen, which is the worst result.

Liu Tao is now coming forward and calling her "mother" in public, which also means that he is standing on the Zhen Yi line. As for Liu Tao's current importance to the Zhen family, his position can solve many problems.

At least, she can relieve her of many problems. Just yesterday, the day after Zhen Yi passed away, a servant privately revealed that the following couplets were already thinking about letting her, an "outsider", give up the power of taking over.

When Zhen Yi passed away, she temporarily managed the power of the head of the family, mainly to maintain the normal progress of family business and various affairs. But in the eyes of many people, she is an "outsider". The most important thing is that she does lack sufficient voice.

"My father is seriously ill. I, as a prospective son-in-law, should come and have a look." Liu Tao said slowly, "I was still thinking on the way that if I could catch up, I should find a way to rescue him. Unfortunately, I was one step too late."

I have also considered the possibility of fraud and test the attitudes of him or other people. After all, how could he suddenly die early in the late 185 after all, who died in 186?

So when he came in, he had secretly used vitality to regenerate Zhen Yi, but the magic power only covered him and then dissipated. The magic power did not enter Zhen Yi's body, which means that Zhen Yi, who was lying in the coffin, had lost his vitality.

Unlike healing techniques, healing techniques are the effect of externally applying healing, using his magic to replace the vitality of life to treat injuries. But vitality regeneration is different, which is a magic that stimulates the potential of the human body's life and promotes self-regeneration.

He had no vitality anymore, so naturally he could not stimulate it again. Only in this way did he truly confirm that Zhen Yi was really dead, and even laughed at himself for a moment whether he was a little suspicious.

"Well, you have an engagement with Jiang'er, and you are not an outsider." Zhang nodded, "It's just random here. After all, if such a thing happens now, we can't treat you well."

"It's okay, I can take good care of myself. If you have any other needs, just give me instructions." Liu Tao replied.

In the next few days, he tried hard to play the role of an excellent son-in-law. Although this would be very troublesome, after all, the feeling of wearing a mask made his thoughts less clear.

In the past few days, he firmly stood in Zhen Yi's lineage and came to pay tribute to Zhen Yi's tribe members and families friendly to the Zhen family, such as the Zhang family of Changshan, Zhang family of Zhongshan and Su family of Zhongshan, all learned about his position.

Many of the current interests of several companies are tied to Liu Tao. If he stands, they will have to stand.

The Zhen clan members who originally planned to force Zhang to delegate power and even give up power had to choose to accept this fact. The future of many clan members lies in Liu Tao, and no one wants to offend him at this time.

"Yu'er is still young, and as a mother, I am responsible for helping you from the side. In addition, I also hope that all the clan elders in the clan can supervise and teach Yu'er so that he can grow into a qualified clan leader." Zhang finally pretended to be a tiger's power and retreated from Zhen Yu.

Her identity is equivalent to that of the empress dowager, and she is also the empress dowager in real power. The difference is that she is always focused on Zhen's family because she made a poisonous oath that if she harmed Zhen's family's interests, she would not die a bad death.

The people of Yan and Zhao are neglecting wealth and value righteousness, and can take risks for a promise. Zhang dares to swear like this, and the clan elders have to admit their dissatisfaction.

But Liu Tao was not very relieved. Zhen Yu seemed to have a short life in history, and he didn't know how many years he would live. He didn't know if he could save him. Otherwise, it would be too late to wait for Zhen Yan to grow up.

"Zhen Yu's physique is weak. If he can, he should urge him to exercise properly in the future and exercise his body..." Liu Tao mentioned it privately on Zhang's side.

It would be fine if he didn't say it, but Zhang also realized that Zhen Yu was really similar to Zhen Yi and had a bad physique. He started to worry for a moment. He had to thank Liu Tao. Without his reminder, he probably hadn't discovered this hidden danger.
