Evil Girl Reborn: The Eldest Princess, She Takes Manchurian Civil and Military Affairs

Chapter 84 The Zhou family proposes marriage
Man Man took a deep breath and kept tapping his knuckles on the table.

It's easy to guess why the Fu family asked for marriage. It must have been the queen's idea.

But why did Fang Lingchu do this?
That day when he left the palace, he was slapped in the face by Ji Lan Mingming. No other young master from an aristocratic family would have done it again.Is it because he has a title that makes him extremely thick-skinned?

Cheng Youping thought for a moment and said softly, "If the eldest princess doesn't want to get married, why not go to His Majesty to inquire about the situation and see if there is room for change?"

As soon as Yiman stood up, he sat down again.

No, the emperor originally wanted to use her to win over Chun Wei's students, but she is now hanging above Chun Wei like a precious prize.Going to the emperor at this time will only arouse the emperor's disgust.I blame her for going around causing trouble and not being a good vase.

Yiman lowered his voice, "Youping, you should be able to contact Zhou Yu, right?"

Cheng Youping nodded, "Yes, Mr. Zhou told the courtier to contact his palace staff when he entered the palace."

"If you'd like, please call him into the palace. I want to see him and tell him that it's something that will benefit the family."

Afternoon
There was no one at the back of Qingsi Palace. Zhou Yu, dressed in white clothes with cold branches, walked over as if there was no one in the palace.

Not far away by the lotus pond, Yi Manzheng was leaning lazily on the jade railing, frowning in thought, sneering at an official newspaper, with anger and murderous intent on her body. The sunlight around her seemed to be radiating from her body. Blinding and burning.

In her fiefdom, a vicious case happened because the murderer was a member of the family, so she was spared the death penalty by killing a goose.It's really good. It seems that the family must be eliminated.

Yiman suddenly felt Ji Lan tugging on her sleeve. When she looked up, she saw Zhou Yu walking over.

Suddenly she thought that her fiefdom was Jindu, the ancestral land of the Zhou family, and maybe the murderer had taken advantage of the Zhou family's power, and a surge of anger suddenly arose in her heart.But thinking about the current situation, he smiled.

"See Princess."

Zhou Yu had a gentle face and a soft voice, and he cupped his hands with a slight smile.

"Master Zhou, what do you think of me?"

Zhou Yu had a slight doubt in his eyes.

"Master Zhou, do you want to ask your father to marry me?"

Zhou Yu's gentle face suddenly appeared unnatural, and his eyelashes trembled twice, as if he had come back to his senses, "Is the eldest princess worried about Marquis Taiyun and the Fu family's marriage proposal?"

It is absolutely impossible for the emperor to marry her into a noble family. If the two families are fighting at this time, there is no guarantee that the fishermen will not benefit. The emperor will marry her casually to the family of a minister who comes from a poor family in the court.

If three aristocratic families were seeking marriage, and the emperor was suspicious, he would inevitably not think too much about whether this was a ploy by the aristocratic families, and then delay the matter again and again.

As long as spring is approaching and the emperor thinks about the significance of her prize, he can delay it for another three or four months.

Yiman folded the official newspaper and nodded with a smile, "If Mr. Zhou can help, the fight between the three families will probably be settled."

Zhou Yu had a smile in his eyes and understood what Yiman meant, "What benefits will the Zhou family gain by dragging the Zhou family into trouble?"

Yiman took a look at the official newspaper and said, "The Zhou family has never left the water. How can you say that I was the one who dragged this down? I do have a problem, which is related to the fate of the Zhou family."

"Princess please ask."

"Does Mr. Zhou want to protect the Zhou family, or all the aristocratic families?"

A gust of cold wind blew away the relaxed atmosphere between the two, and the air was suddenly filled with silence.

Zhou Yu, who was dressed in cold white clothes, looked cold at first, but now his eyes were sharp, deep and long, and his usual gentleness was gone.

It was as if someone finally poked open the window paper and saw the huge monster in the house.

Yiman looked straight at Zhou Yu with a calm gaze. "Since the eldest princess already knows Zhou's thoughts, why bother to ask more questions?"

Now that the aristocratic family has infringed upon the royal rights, if they want to protect all the aristocratic families, there will only be civil strife in Ling and re-dividing the interests, which represents rebellion.

If Zhou Yu wanted to plot rebellion, he would not have sought her out, but had directly hid troops in Jindu.

Therefore, the only people Zhou Yu wanted to protect were the Zhou family.

If Zhou Yu wanted to protect the Zhou family, he would inevitably have to resort to royal power.

She is now in contact with government affairs, and the prince's health is also getting better.She can then become the helper of the Zhou family, or the support of the Zhou family when the mansion is about to collapse and lead to the royal family. This is the real purpose of Zhou Yu's search for her.

He smiled broadly, as if he had expected it, "No matter how much Master Zhou has on me, I don't care. Because as Master Zhou expected, I am a man who knows how to repay kindness."

Zhou Yu seemed to be smiling but not smiling, which made people hairy, "Does the princess only need my father to propose marriage to the emperor?"

It wasn't true anyway, so Yiman didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed. He raised his eyebrows and nodded firmly.

"Then Zhou will go back and tell my father right now."

"Young Master Zhou will be later."

Since Zhou Yu could give in to this extent, it means that she was at least half right.

After finally seeing Zhou Yu, he had to take this opportunity to provoke the Zhou family and other aristocratic families.At that time, the snipe and clam will compete for the fisherman's benefit, weakening the power of the aristocratic family, and the resistance from the DPRK and China will be less, and the New Deal can be implemented more quickly.

Before Yiman could speak, Zhou Yu seemed to understand something from her "sincere and innocent" eyes, showing an extremely gentle smile, making Yiman stare at him in a daze.

"It won't be too late for the princess to think about it after His Majesty's new policy is announced."

When the terms are released, won't the respective bottom lines be revealed? There will be no room for discussion.

Seeing that his thoughts were revealed, Yi Man showed no embarrassment at being exposed. Instead, he nodded seriously with a look of approval.

When Zhou Yu turned around and left, Yiman's face turned sour. He snorted coldly, took the official newspaper from Ji Lan's hand and continued reading.

The young masters of the aristocratic families all have so many tricks up their sleeves, yet they still act like they are all brilliant.

The eldest son of the Zhou family is good at everything, he is brilliant, has the demeanor of a gentleman, and is kind and gentle even to his servants. From the aunt who helps in the kitchen to the second master of the Zhou family, there is no one who does not praise him.

Only the Grand Master of the Zhou Mansion and Princess Rongyu were cautious and obedient to this son on weekdays, and did not dare to intervene a word.

Just because Zhou Yu was deceived out of the capital by his clan members when he was young, and returned to the Zhou Mansion four years later. Their situation outside was not known at all, and the Zhou family and his wife felt guilty.

Since then, the proud man of heaven has become a gentle gentleman.

Zhou Yu became more and more gentle, and the Zhou family and his wife felt more and more guilty.

Zhou Yu has been back to the capital for four or five years. Recalling the demon king who could poke holes in the sky, Zhou Yu still couldn't believe that the humble gentleman in front of him was his son.

Every night when I tossed and turned late at night, I would ask my wife if my son had been swapped.Then Princess Rongyu slapped her on the face, and she fell asleep in embarrassment while touching her face.

In the study, Minister Zhou calmly accepted the tea offered by Zhou Yu, even more panicked than receiving the tea offered by his superior.

Without him, Zhou Yu has carried a suppressed and dangerous aura since he returned to the capital, making Zhou Shilang, who has been immersed in the court for decades, particularly sensitive.

Princess Rongyu happily took the tea, "Yu'er, what do you want to tell mother about?"
