Chapter 189

Zhang Rang hurriedly fabricated... bah! He analyzed: "Your Majesty, you have set him up as a typical example to confront Grand General He Jin and the Yuan clan;"

"If it had been spread early, I fear that not only would He Jin and the Yuan clan have stopped and sabotaged this matter, not letting Su Xuan gain help;"

"But they would also have let people slander Su Xuan's loyalty to Your Majesty, thereby making Your Majesty destroy your own arms?"

"Just like now, even if no one slanders him, Your Majesty would still doubt his loyalty, wouldn't you?"

"In the end, Su Xuan was just trying to protect himself, so he could keep his useful body to continue to serve Your Majesty!"

"In the end, he is not a stupid person; otherwise, he wouldn't be valued and reused by Your Majesty, right?"

In short, there is one core: Su Xuan is greatly loyal; this point does not need to be doubted.

"Hmm!"

Liu Hong nodded in agreement: "Reasonable! What else?"

"As for why he wants to marry a scholar-official's daughter!"

Zhang Rang continued to analyze: "This old servant speculates that this is something that couldn't be helped!"

"Your Majesty, think about it! With Su Xuan's status today, his marriage certainly cannot be casual;"

"At least it needs to be a match of equal social status, right?"

"And he didn't marry the daughters of other scholar-official clans, but specifically married the Xun clan's daughter, precisely because he valued the Xun clan's loyalty to Your Majesty!"

"If he had gone to marry a Yuan clan daughter, that would truly be a betrayal of Your Majesty;"

"It can be seen that Su Xuan's intentions are bitter, Your Majesty!"

At this time, Zhang Rang couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up in his heart.

This matter was actually rounded up by him.

I am awesome!

"Afterward, I must tell Su Xuan about my efforts and let him prepare a generous thank-you gift for me."

Zhang Rang thought.

"That is really true!"

Liu Hong slapped his knee and said with bright eyes: "Looking at it this way, Su Xuan marrying the Xun clan's daughter is actually a wonderful thing? Not only solving the problem of the main wife but also indirectly showing loyalty to me?"

Although it felt a bit strange, it was not without reason.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Zhang Rang flattered.

Liu Hong glanced at Zhang Rang and said angrily: "Alright! I won't make things difficult for you!"

"I know that this is actually Su Xuan's means to ease his relationship with the scholar-official clans; don't think I can't see it;"

"You also said that this kid is a smart person; smart people naturally know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, right?"

Liu Hong would not underestimate a young talent who could repeatedly seize opportunities, establish merits in just half a year, and make him willingly promote him constantly.

Zhang Rang, hearing this, had cold sweat on his forehead: "Yes! Your Majesty is wise!"

Damn! It almost overturned; fortunately, it didn't overturn completely.

His Majesty still listened to most of it.

"Heh!"

Liu Hong sneered: "I will let it go this time! I won't argue with him! After all, he was just trying to survive; just marrying a Xun clan daughter doesn't count as betrayal;"

"If he had married a eunuch's daughter, I would truly have to be careful!"

That would mean Su Xuan was extremely insidious and cunning, using any means to achieve his goals.

Such a person, even if he were loyal on the surface, Liu Hong would not dare to trust or use him.

"That's it!"

Liu Hong thought of this, waved his hand, pointed at the messy palace, and said: "Have someone clean it up; additionally, I don't want any wind of today's matter to spread, understand?"

"Yes!"

In the Zhongshan Kingdom of Jizhou, at the Zhen residence in Lu Nu,

Zhen Yi and the others also received the news that Su Xuan was to marry Xun Cai of the Yingchuan Xun clan in three months.

"I didn't expect my worthy son-in-law to be so capable, not only being appointed a General and enfeoffed as a Marquis but also successfully marrying into the Xun clan?"

"With this, his future is truly going to be extraordinary!"

Zhen Yi exclaimed.

Su Xuan was much more powerful than he had imagined.

He even speculated whether Su Xuan had already established a relationship with the Xun clan long ago?

"I wonder if this Miss Xun Cai will be easy to get along with?"

Zhen Jiang, who also received the news, was slightly stunned.

She felt some worry in her heart.

"Jiang'er!"

At this time, Zhen Yi said to Zhen Jiang: "Jiang'er, hurry up and pack your things; Father will also organize your dowry, and then we will depart as quickly as possible for Nanjun."

"Eh?"

Zhen Jiang was stunned and asked in confusion: "Father, what are we going to Nanjun for at this time?"

"You are confused! Naturally, it is to marry you to Su Xuan!"

Zhen Yi explained with a look of 'hate that iron does not become steel': "We should prepare now, go early, and reach a deep cooperation with the Su family's chamber of commerce;"

"Then, after Su Xuan marries the Xun clan's daughter, Father will offer the dowry and let you marry Su Xuan as soon as possible;"

"Best of all, give birth to a son or daughter as soon as possible; only then can your status in the Su residence be consolidated, understand?"

Can this kind of thing be delayed?

Naturally, it is to cut the Gordian knot.

"Your father is right!"

Zhen Mother Zhang also nodded in agreement: "Jiang'er! Time waits for no one! Su Xuan is now the Nanjun Administrator, General of the Southern Garrison, and Marquis of Duxiang;"

"Crucially, he is only 17, has great military merits, and his appearance and temperament are extremely outstanding; he is both civil and martial. With such a good son-in-law, I don't know how many people are watching him right now!"

"He is now a piece of fragrant pastry; everyone who sees him probably wants to take a bite;"

"Although the main wife is given to the Xun clan's daughter, there is no limit to the number of concubines!"

"Do you believe that if you delay for a few days, your entry time will be ranked after the second digit?"

At this time, Zhen Yi and Zhen Mother were very glad that they had chosen to marry Zhen Jiang to Su Xuan as a concubine.

And they had even drawn up a marriage contract.

This decision was too wise.

Otherwise, how would such a good thing be their family's turn now?

Zhen Jiang, hearing her mother's exaggerated description, said shamefully: "Mother, you are too exaggerated! What, ranked after the second digit? What do you take General Su for? A stallion?"

She was somewhat dumbfounded.

But at the same time, she also felt a sense of urgency in her heart.

Worried that many vixen-like women would win Su Xuan's favor before her and enter the Su family.

"Not exaggerated! Reality will only be more exaggerated than what Mother said!"

Zhen Mother shook her head.

She felt that her daughter just had too little experience.

She simply couldn't understand the madness of some families.

"Fine!"

Zhen Jiang didn't say anything more and nodded: "Just do as you say! I'll go prepare!" ===== CHAPTER 191 =====
