Chapter 1042: Marriage

The sun is setting in the west, the sunset is rising, and the returning geese are flying together.

Regardless of Zhang Tianwen's past, at least now, Zhang Tianwen is sincerely cultivating Wu Yi. His analysis of the situation in the North, especially the analysis of the Beilu, is completely from a high position, giving Wu Yi a new perspective.

It was Mrs. Zhang who interrupted the conversation, arranged for the servants to serve the dishes, and prepared the banquet. The eight dishes and one soup were not as good as those in the palace, but the cooking was exquisite and the combinations were eye-catching, giving it a homely and warm feeling.

However, during the night banquet, Mrs. Zhang once again talked about Wu Yi's marriage. The reason was that both Wu Yi's parents were dead, and she took the initiative to arrange the marriage for Wu Yi.

It could be said that it was just personal curiosity before, but now Mrs. Zhang raised it in front of Zhang Tianwen, and she had the idea of ​​​​tying Wu Yi into the chariot completely.

Rich families often have daughters from collateral lines. If they can marry young talents like Wu Yi, it will be a good way to continue the family.

The first time in a person's life that a person's destiny is determined by the conditions of his or her family after leaving the womb. This time, almost everyone cannot choose independently. Those who can choose independently transcend the constraints of life and death. Why should you compare with them? .

The second fate-determining opportunity is marriage. Marriage is the union of two parties. For people of low origin, it is a great opportunity for promotion. Of course, the premise is that you are good enough, otherwise it will be all nonsense.

Opportunities to achieve a class jump only come a few times in a person's life, and they often depend on the right time, place, and people. Sometimes, even if they do come across them, they cannot grasp them because they are not strong enough.

It's like you go back through time and space and become a reborn person. You know that the stock market will rise sharply in a certain year, and you know that real estate will rise sharply in a certain period of time. However, the capital available to you is close to zero, so even if you know So much cannot be cashed out directly.

Time travel is unrealistic, but marriage can be grasped. This is visible to the naked eye, and it can provide you with the opportunity to rise in class. The saying that you are well-matched has been passed down since ancient times, and it is not unreasonable.

The upper class achieves intra-class transfer through matching, but if you want to break through the solidification of class, you need to put in a thousand times more effort.

Wu Yi naturally understood what Mrs. Zhang was thinking. He hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll think about it when I go back!"

She didn't take the initiative to refuse, which was already a huge improvement. Mrs. Zhang didn't dare to demand more, and said: "That's fine. Marriage is a major matter. Don't take it lightly. You can go find the elders in your family and discuss it together!"

The elder of the family, just coming, is no different from not coming, Wu Yi thought to himself, but he naturally agreed on his face.

In this way, tonight's Zhang family banquet is over. Wu Yi and Gu Qingyue excused themselves and returned to the inn.

Mrs. Zhang tried to persuade her to stay, but the emperor's reward had not yet been established, so it was not easy for Wu Yi to live in the Zhang Mansion now. Even visiting Zhang Tianwen today would be against the rules, and it would be known as a tandem.

It's just such a rule that as long as Wu Yi doesn't offend others, no one will take the initiative to hold on to these rules. What's more, with Zhang Tianwen's endorsement, no censor is so ignorant of the importance.

The Zhang Mansion sent a carriage to send Wu Yi and Gu Qingyue back to the inn. In front of them were two horses of the same height and color pulling the carriage. The groom was also a veteran for more than ten years, and the carriage was stable.

Inside the carriage, there are loose velvet cushions woven by spring silkworms, which are soft and soft, further reducing the bumpy feeling of the carriage.

Wu Yi and Gu Qingyue were sitting opposite each other. There was a small tea table in the middle with precious various tea leaves for the drinkers to help themselves. There was a small stove under which hot water was being heated.

The cool breeze blowing in from time to time at night is quite soothing and gentle. But the two of them were speechless, and the atmosphere was a bit strange.

"In the coming days, I might have to stay in Zhongdu?" At the night banquet, as if to make excuses, Zhang Tianwen pointed out that Jin Shang intended to make Wu Yi the commander of the guards of Prince Yong's palace.

King Yong is the legitimate son of today's emperor. He is young and similar to Wu Yicha.

What is the captain of the guard? That is the leader of King Yong's army.

Given this position to Wu Yi, it can be said that Wu Yi is highly regarded. Wu Yi originally thought that Zhang Tianwen made a mistake and just looked at the other party's expression to reveal the news to Wu Yi intentionally.

If the news is revealed intentionally, then the possibility is not low, it can even be said that it has been finalized.

Tonight, Mrs. Zhang has been trying to win over Wu Yi in her words. It can be said that it is closely related to this.

Therefore, when Wu Yi said that he would stay in Zhongdu in the next period of time, he was not just lying, but he really wanted to do so.

Because of the existence of the election system of the Daji Dynasty, there is no such thing as a prince or prince. No matter which prince he is, he needs to enter the local government after reaching adulthood, and the people will choose the final monarch.

But no matter what, this King Yong is the daughter of the queen and his legitimate son. Although he is young, his resources cannot be underestimated.

The so-called selection system seems to be a comparison of the governance abilities of the princes, but in fact it cannot widen the gap at all. The factor that really determines the final outcome is the strength behind the parties.

The most important thing is that the queen is now the daughter of a noble family in Beidi. In other words, she is from the same school as Zhang Tianwen. I don’t know if it’s because of this that Wu Yi was chosen.

If King Yong becomes the next emperor of the Daji Dynasty, then there is no doubt that Wu Yi, who possesses the power of Conglong, will reach the status of Zhang Tianwen in the future, because it is completely reasonable.

Therefore, Wu Yi could not give up this opportunity.

Gu Qingyue understood this and said lightly. During the night banquet, Zhang Tianwen also hinted at her reward, which was to let her inherit her father's title. At this age, she is still a woman. In the eyes of others, she might be... A good way out.

But for Gu Qingyue, this was not the case. If she had not chosen to cancel the engagement with Zhang Mansion, she would have had a higher status in the future.

Gu Qingyue wanted a lot, and Wu Yi understood this, so when everyone questioned her motives, Wu Yi didn't say anything.

Next, Gu Qingyue, who has obtained the title, will most likely return to the North, where her foundation lies. Although she was purged by the Beibei, there is still a chance to rebuild. In Zhongdu, she is too weak. There is no way to survive.

The final reward has not been finalized yet. All we know now is what Zhang Tianwen said. Although the credibility is very high, we still can't think that we are safe from now on.

If there are no certain things, there will be variables, not to mention that even the certain things will change, let alone the present.

Wu Yi originally wanted to look into the future, but the foundation was unstable and he had to terminate the dialogue. Now he can't make a promise! Lack of basis for interest exchange.
