Chapter 1226: Sequelae
Hong Chengchou came back to find himself so soon, Mao Wenlong felt very surprised, and judging from Hong Chengchou's expression, there seemed to be nothing embarrassing with a smile?
With a puzzled face, Mao Wenlong asked in a low voice, "Has Mr. already informed Zi Yan of the matter?" ”
Hong Chengchou nodded and smiled: "It's done, the general soldier doesn't have to worry about it at all." Tomorrow we will meet with the patriarch of the upper village, and we can finalize the marriage, and I hope that the chief soldier will not regret it. ”
Mao Wenlong was very surprised when he heard this: "How did Mr. do it, isn't Ziyan jealous at all?" ”
Hong Chengchou smiled incomprehensibly: "Can't the chief soldier even trust the old ministers now?" ”
Seeing that Hong Chengchou was not going to explain, Mao Wenlong also gave up, anyway, he went over and asked Hong Ziyan at night, and the matter would come to light.
Putting away the curiosity in his heart, Mao Wenlong turned to say: "Mr. is naturally trustworthy, so tomorrow's marriage matter can be handed over to Mr. to take the idea." I'm gone, the patriarch of Shangcun, and I'll have to work a lot on this matter. ”
What Mao Wenlong was thinking, Hong Chengchou naturally knew, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The chief soldier is too much to be the shopkeeper." ”
Mao Wenlong didn't look embarrassed at all, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Those who are capable work harder, and when it comes to strategy, ten Mao Mou is not as good as Mr. alone." ”
It is rare to be praised by Mao Wenlong, and Hong Chengchou is not so careful. Then he simply agreed, but before leaving, he warned Mao Wenlong, saying that it was up to him to handle the matter, and it was completely up to him to make the decision. Afterwards, Mao Wenlong is not allowed to regret it no matter what!
Mao Wenlong hesitated for a while before nodding his head.
Early the next morning, Hong Chengchou met with Shangcun Hanoi. When he saw that Hong Chengchou was the only one in the hall, Uemura Hanoi was apprehensive at first. After all, Mao Wenlong's performance yesterday was still in his mind, which would make him mistakenly think that Mao Wenlong didn't want to get married.
Fortunately, Hong Chengchou had already seen through Shangcun Hanoi's worries, and he explained with a smile: "The patriarch of Shangcun doesn't have to worry, the general soldier has already agreed to the marriage, but the chief soldier can't get out of something today." So leave the matter completely to the old man, and if there is any problem, we can negotiate to complete it. ”
Hearing this, Kamimura Hanoi suddenly felt relieved, and said, "That's good, that's good!" ”
After Hong Chengchou nodded, he turned to the topic: "The marriage matter is of great benefit to both of us, and the general soldier also agreed. So now if the patriarch of Shangcun has any concerns or requirements, he will say it if he can. ”
came up with a way to marry to cut off the worries of the Dongjiang army, Hong Chengchou already knew that Shangcun Hanoi would definitely not let go of the opportunity to ask for benefits. Otherwise, the sacrifices made by his two daughters and the Uemura family are completely disproportionate to what they have gained.
A smart person naturally won't dig a pit and jump by himself, even if Shangcun Hanoi is shocked by the strength of the Dongjiang Army at the moment, he won't come to flatter him for no reason. What is always talked about between countries is interests, and as for friendship, it is also based on interests.
Seeing Hong Chengchou so refreshing, Kamimura Hanoi suddenly became energetic, knowing that he himself was already on the weak side. Although Mao Wenlong took a fancy to his Shangcun family, this had to be based on the fact that the Shangcun family was obedient enough. And the Shangcun family is in a weak position, so they will inevitably be unable to ask Mao Wenlong for benefits at will.
Fortunately, Hong Chengchou is obviously a smart enough person, and he can be regarded as very heroic, and he removed all the worries in Shangcunhe's heart with one sentence. Casting a grateful look, Uemura Hanochi no longer hesitated to say: "To be honest, the Uemura family is not afraid of any other family at the moment. Our only concern is that we are afraid that the other families will join forces and besiege our family. In this way, our Uemura family has become a rat that everyone shouts and beats. ”
Hong Chengchou frowned after hearing this, he had already learned the mystery of Shangcun Hanoi's words from Shangcun Hanoi's words. After hesitating for a while, Hong Chengchou spoke: "The meaning of the patriarch of Shangcun is to hide the marriage and make it public!" ”
This question is worth thinking about deeply, after all, Mao Wenlong's marriage is to take advantage of this to completely control the entire Wa Kingdom. And it is controlled from the root, but if it is done according to the requirements of Uemura Kawachi. Then this matter was concealed, and Mao Wenlong's marriage lost its original meaning.
If the marriage is not made public, no one will know that the children born to the two daughters of Uemura Hanoi are Mao Wenlong's flesh and blood. In the future, once the Dongjiang Army helps Shangcun Hanoi to get the world of the Wa Kingdom, then the people's hearts will be controlled by the Shangcun family, and there is nothing to do with the Dongjiang Army at all.
Seeing Hong Chengchou's face gloomy, Shangcun Hanoi immediately became nervous, and hurriedly explained: "Sir, don't misunderstand, this matter is really not suitable for publicity." The people of the Japanese country are resistant to xenophobia, and I think the gentleman already knows that if the marriage between the Uemura family and the general army is announced, it will inevitably suffer from the resistance of the people of the Japanese country and other families. In this way, we can't convince people's hearts at all, and concealing it is really a last resort. ”
Hong Chengchou calmed down after hearing this, and after thinking about it, he also began to understand Shangcun Hanoi's concerns. The matter itself is indeed not suitable for publicity, what Mao Wenlong needs now is the will of the people, and if the marriage is announced, it will only attract the common conflict between the people of the Japanese country and those families.
After thinking about it for a while, Hong Chengchou slowed down his tone and said: "There is indeed a reason why the marriage cannot be announced. But how can the Upper Village Patriarch ensure the control of the Dongjiang Army under such circumstances. ”
In this communication between countries, if it is maintained only by that little bit of flesh-and-blood relationship, then Hong Chengchou feels that it is not reliable. Since ancient times, for the sake of power, have there been fewer fights between brothers and fathers and sons? Once Shangcun Hanoi got power, it was entirely possible to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the Dongjiang army to kill the flesh and blood left by Mao Wenlong, and then ascend the throne himself.
When asked such a crucial question, Kamimura Kawachi was also embarrassed for a while. Indeed, if the marriage is not announced, it means that the Uemura family still has a lot of freedom and room for choice. And to ensure that the Dongjiang Army controls the Shangcun family, this matter is indeed a bit tricky.
After thinking deeply for a long time, Uemura Hanoi suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "In addition to not being able to announce the matter of our marriage, how to control our Uemura family is completely up to the general army. As long as the general soldier puts forward a request, we can unconditionally agree to it. ”
