Chapter 14: The ban on traitors is not cute

The ethical relationships of imperial families often challenge the moral bottom line. Whether before the pre-Qin period or after the Qin and Han dynasties, many of the palace secrets exposed by the emperors after their deaths were criticized by the Taoist priests.

Scandals such as occupying daughter-in-law, affair with brothers and sisters-in-law, and even mothers and sons are all disgraceful and morally contrary to behaviors.

Zhen Yan proposed to marry Zhen Mi to Guo Ye, and there was indeed some ethical resistance. Zhen Mi was Zhen Jiang's real sister, Zhen Jiang was Guo Jia's wife, and Guo Ye was Guo Jia's eldest son. If Zhen Mi got married with Guo Ye, the relationship between Guo Jia's family would suddenly become very chaotic.

This obstacle is nothing more than a factor between seniority, and there is no blood relationship or real facts. Therefore, Zhen Yan believes that with Guo Jia's mind, this relationship will not be considered important.

In Jincheng, the younger generation of children and children of the new generation of powerful children are formed by the new generation of powerful children such as Guo Ye and Gan Gui. This group of young people has nothing outstanding in literary talent, but they are not the playboys who are free to make trouble all day long. They wander around the city, often stand up for their injustice, and teach other wealthy families a lesson. The people have a good impression of this young group, which makes them famous suddenly.

Correspondingly, the most famous young woman in Jincheng is Zhen Mi.

She looks as beautiful as a fairy and is as arrogant as a dragon. She is not only knowledgeable and well-educated, but also has a brilliant literary talent. Zhen Mi, who is famous far and wide, is the most admired talented woman of the young generation of Chengdu.

Since Zhen Mi was fifteen years old, the Zhen family has refused to count the number of people who come to propose marriage every year. With the current status of the Zhen family, they do not need to look at people's faces. Ordinary wealthy families also look down on them. Now the only families that can really make the Zhen family look down on them are the Guo family and the Qin family.

The aristocrats produced counselors, and the common people produced military generals.

Even though Guo Jia subverted the Yizhou gentry, Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao could not underestimate the Qin family, which once had a good status in Yizhou. As for the families such as Dian Wei Xuchu, Fa Zheng, Zhang Song, etc., in the eyes of the Zhen family, there is no way to take the initiative to get along with them.

It is difficult to let Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao think about Zhen Mi’s happiness by putting aside the future development of the family. For every family with status, personal happiness is often the most distant fantasy.

If Qin Mi came to propose marriage to his son Qin Ming to the Zhen family, Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao would agree immediately. Unfortunately, Qin Mi had served Guo Jia for ten years and had never done anything that really seeks personal gain for the Qin family. He formed cliques and formed cliques for personal gains were even more avoidable. The Qin family's children chose to marry the daughters of some local families, and would never marry the children of officials under Guo Jia's rule. This was an unwritten rule after Qin Mi took over the Qin family. Even if it was a bad match, Qin Mi would never go out of the way.

Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao hope to use the most profitable chips for Zhen Mi. Now, marrying Zhen Mi to Guo Ye is the best investment they think.

"At least try it, let the eldest sister explore the lord's tone. If the lord is unhappy, then give up."

Zhen Yan said softly.

Zhen Yao thought about it and said that there was nothing wrong with trying it. Maybe Guo Jia really didn't mind Zhen Mi being his daughter-in-law. Even if Guo Jia opposed it, at most he would be rejected.

"Okay, well, say hello to Wumei in advance. If he likes someone, let her break this thought first."

The two brothers called the servants to invite Zhen Mi to the backyard. Soon, Zhen Mi, who was pure and quiet, and had a super elegant temperament, walked over slowly, as if she was a lotus step, with her smile moving.

"Second brother, third brother, why bother calling me?"

The two brothers looked at me and I looked at you. After staring at you for a moment, Zhen Yan coughed a few times, then looked at Zhen Mi and said, "Fifth sister, I and your third brother are planning to find someone to talk about your marriage."

Zhen Mi's rosy face turned a little white, her faint smile froze, her tone became weaker, and she asked, "Which company?"

"The eldest son of the lord, Mr. Ye."

Zhen Yan carefully observed Zhen Mi's expression and found that she was not in high spirits and even had an indelible melancholy in her eyes.

Could it be that Zhen Yao really hit it? Is she really interested in it?

Zhen Yao also thought Zhen Mi's reaction was strange.

Although Guo Ye is ordinary in talent, he is definitely elegant and elegant. He inherited the handsome appearance of Guo Jia and Cai Yan. In terms of appearance, Guo Ye can be called a handsome man. In terms of connotation and quality, he seems simple and unpretentious, but for so many years, Guo Ye has shown an image of being pragmatic and calm and able to take great responsibilities.

In this Jincheng, among the younger generation of young masters, the most popular figure among girls is obviously Guo Ye.

Zhen Mi is three or four years older than Guo Ye, so this age gap should be ignored.

Marrying Guo Ye is definitely more acceptable than marrying other noble young men.

But Zhen Mi looked sad, what's going on?

If you disagree, you object, and if you agree, you nod. Neither end, but you are worried, which is really unpredictable.

"Fifth sister, can you have his own family?"

Zhen Yao has never been a black-faced brother, and his kind tone will make Zhen Mi take psychological precautions.

Zhen Mi lowered her head slightly and shook it gently.

Um?

Monk Zhen Yao was confused and continued to ask, "Do you want to marry Mr. Ye?"

If you want someone to go to match, first of all, your own woman should be fine, otherwise the man will agree and repent, wouldn’t he make a big mistake?

Suddenly he raised his head, Zhen Mi's eyes were full of worry, and she looked at her two brothers and said softly: "Little sister, I can't marry Mr. Ye."

Zhen Yan frowned and asked, "Why can't you? If you can't give a convincing reason, you can't let you mess around with this."

Personal interests are insignificant in the face of family interests. Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao are indeed not cruel enough to push their own sister into the fire pit. However, in their eyes, the person who can make them look at them is not a scumbag, but he is definitely not a scumbag.

The atmosphere in the room was a little nervous. Zhen Yan stared at Zhen Mi. Zhen Yao looked helplessly. Zhen Mi changed into a faint look and looked at the two brothers and spoke softly.

"If a thousand chariot is not prepared, there must be a hundred chariot minister on his side, so that he can move his people and lose his country; if a thousand chariot king on his side, there must be a thousand chariot family on his side, so that he can move his power and lose his country. The current status of the Zhen family, do you think the envoy will not be guarded? Even if the two brothers are loyal to the envoy, what about the next generation of the Zhen family? Will the envoy be relieved of the loyalty of the descendants in the future? The Zhen family can no longer grow stronger, otherwise there will be a catastrophe!"

As if there was a dead silence, Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao were dumbfounded.

At this moment, it was like a sudden enlightenment, and cold sweat flowed down my back.

Zhen Mi turned slightly, raised her chin and looked aside, and then said, "The king of a country is not big in his capital; a minister of a Tao does not value his family; a king of a Tao does not value his minister. A king of a Tao does not value his minister. He will replace him. Today, the envoy of the envoy is his wife is the eldest daughter of the Zhen family, and his legitimate son is the nephew of the elder brother. If the younger sister marrys Mr. Ye again, would he ask the two brothers, will the envoy still trust the Zhen family as always? No matter what the Zhen family imagines, in the eyes of outsiders, the Zhen family is walking the path Huo Guang walked back then. Isn't the end of the Huo family enough to warn his brother?"

Putting aside Huo Guang's trust in Emperor Wu of Han, it was a pro-orthodox situation for the development of the Western Han regime, but one thing must be affirmed. In the feudal dynasty, Huo took over the power of the foreign relative and set a precedent for "recording the Shangshu", breaking the situation of three centimeters of power. It can even be said that Huo Guang had already held the imperial power in his own hands at that time and was an uncrowned emperor.

Guo Jia is not the emperor now, but at least he is a real and nameless monarch of the vassal state!

The three forces that caused the collapse of the Eastern Han regime, the gentry, the relatives of the foreign party, have now been destroyed and the relatives of the foreign party, leaving only the gentry who are surviving in various places.

The gentry in the Central Plains, the gentry in Hebei, and the gentry in Jiangnan and Jiangdong are not having a good time now.

Under Guo Jia's rule, these three forces no longer exist, so we must be wary of rekindling.

The Zhen family's glory has reached its peak now, which is a height that Guo Jia can give to the greatest extent. If one step is life and death, one step is prosperity and decline, and then one step is further, what will Guo Jia do? If the Zhen family can bear the consequences, they can give it a bold try.

Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao were already pale.

But Zhen Mi hasn't finished her words.

"Those who govern the people should ban evil spirits before they arise. The Supreme Master bans his heart and then bans his words. The envoy has set two marriages for Mr. Jin, one of which is to marry Cao Cao. Can't the two brothers see through the intentions of the envoy? Although Mr. Jin is a legitimate son, he has lost the qualification to succeed the throne. The envoy is warning the Zhen family not to be more arrogant. If the two brothers insist on pushing the Zhen family to a high place, I am afraid that the Zhen family will be broken to pieces in the future. The high place is too cold. What the Zhen family needs to do now is to be low-key. Not only can they not marry the gentleman's descendants, but even the Zhen family cannot marry ordinary wealthy families. Two brothers, in fact, there is one person around you who is truly wise and foolish. Mr. Zijie's way of dealing with the world is the best way to continue the prosperity of the family."

After Zhen Mi, who looked faintly, looked at her two brothers. No one knew that her calm expression was a nervous heart. What she was most worried about was that her two brothers took her words as a wind in her ears.

Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao looked at each other and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads. Zhen Yao laughed at himself and said, "Fifth sister woke up from the dream with her words. I understand. Go, let's pretend that something happened today has never happened."

Zhen Mi smiled faintly and bowed and said goodbye.

After she left, Zhen Yan suddenly asked, "Do you think the fifth sister is threatening you and me? Will she not want to marry Mr. Ye, so she made you and me give up this idea in a roundabout way?"

Zhen Yao threw away the jade pendant in his hand and chuckled, "I think it's 80% true, but what the fifth sister said is not without reason. The Zhen family should act in a low-key manner. The wood is better than the wind in the forest, and the behavior is higher than that of the people. If you are always at the height of focus outside, it will be a disaster for the Zhen family, not a blessing for the Zhen family."

Zhen Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This fifth sister..."

After leaving the room and walking around the corner, Zhen Mi suddenly covered her chest and leaned against the door of the room. Her eyes were filled with rhyme, and her cheeks were flying, suppressing her restless heartbeat. Zhen Mi breathed a long sigh.

"Fortunately my brother was fooled...the envoy..."
