Chapter 798 Mi Zhu Who Understands
The wedding was approaching, but there was not much movement in the palace.
Instead, Qiao's mansion became lively.
Qiao Lao only has two daughters, and he doesn't want to wrong them.
"Father, my husband has decided to simply handle the wedding, so don't make such arrangements." Da Qiao said to Qiao Lao.
At this time, Mr. Qiao was instructing his servants to arrange the mansion.
The Qiao family's mansion is very large, he bought it in Wangcheng, and it has several courtyards.
At this time, Mr. Qiao was prosperous again, and of course Qiao's mansion also prospered.
Mr. Qiao not only arranged Qiao's mansion, but also bought a large amount of dowry for Da Qiao and Qiao.
The couple's dowry has already prepared several carts, and the number is still increasing.
Qiao said timidly behind Da Qiao: "Father, there is everything in this palace, and you don't need to pay for it. Will you make it difficult for your husband?"
Qiao Lao glared at the two of them and said, "You haven't married yet."
Mr. Qiao directed the servants again, told them to hurry up and arrange, then turned his head and said to the two of them: "Master Zhang is good at everything, why is he so hard on his family, one meal can only have three dishes, one soup, you are married to the past. Princess's people."
Qiao Lao was still very angry, raised his beard, and then said: "I am a person of status anyway, Zhang Yu married my two daughters, and he didn't hold the wedding grandly, and only invited more than two hundred people. There are only a dozen dishes."
Qiao always became more and more angry, and got angry there, and then said: "He doesn't do it grandly, I will do it, and I will hold a banquet in this royal city for seven or seven nights."
Qiao didn't dare to speak, but Da Qiao couldn't stand it anymore, she said: "Father, this husband is definitely not a stingy man, otherwise he wouldn't have helped father fill up the tens of millions, and left hundreds of thousands for you to make a comeback , Later, when the fleet came back, he didn’t ask you to pay back the money, although you’d better pay most of it, but if you don’t pay it back, he will definitely not ask you for it.”
"The reason for holding such a crude wedding this time is that there is a reason for it."
Qiao Lao pointed at Da Qiao unsatisfactorily and said, "You haven't married yet, I'm still your old man."
Qiao Lao looked at Da Qiao again and couldn't continue cursing with Qiao.
Shaking his head and leaving.
The dressing up of Qiao's mansion did not stop, but the dowry purchase did.
Qiao honestly couldn't figure it out, what happened to the grand wedding ceremony if he was rich and powerful.
He couldn't figure it out, so he wanted to go out for a walk.
"Yo, this is not Mr. Qiao, our Patriarch is about to ask you to go to the mansion to have a talk."
Not long after Mr. Qiao went out, he was blocked by a person.
"Who is your Patriarch?" Qiao Lao was in a bad mood, so his tone was naturally not so polite.
"The Mi family."
"The Mi family? Why are you looking for me?"
"Our Patriarch invites you, and I dare not ask."
"Lead the way ahead."
Qiao Lao didn't expect that Mi Zhu would invite him, but he knew that Mi's mansion also bought a big house in Wangcheng, just one street away, very close.
Not long after, Mr. Qiao arrived at Mi Mansion.
Mi Zhu personally greeted him at the door.
"Patriarch Mi, be polite." Qiao Lao clasped his hands.
"Patriarch Qiao, please."
The relationship between the two is not very good, but there is no festival, and the two parties rarely communicate.
These two families have no festivities, but Mi Lan and Da Qiao are both Zhang Yu's wives. If Zhang Yu's career gets bigger in the future, then they will be competitors, so the relationship will naturally not be close.
The two of them didn't talk on the way, but went into Mi Zhu's study.
Mi Zhu's study is very grand. Although he was a businessman, he wanted to be an official before, so the study is full of books.
"Patriarch Mi, I don't know if you invited the old man here, what's the matter?"
"Stopped by someone." Mi Zhu asked Mr. Qiao to sit down and handed him the prepared tea.
Qiao Lao's heart trembled slightly, he didn't expect such a result.
"Zhang Yu?"
Mr. Qiao's first reaction was Zhang Yu, but he also found it strange that he had so many people he could invite, so why did he ask Mi Zhu to come to him? There are many more suitable people than Mi Zhu.
"No, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zibu." Mi Zhu said.
Zhang Zhao? This made Mr. Qiao even more confused. It was not Zhang Yu who was looking for him, but Zhang Zhao.
"If Mr. Zhang wants me to do something, he can come to the old man himself, or he can ask Zhang Zhao to tell me, and the old man will just go to them." Old Qiao said.
Mi Zhu obviously knew that Qiao was thinking too much, so he smiled and drank his tea and said, "No, Master Zhang is very busy recently, he doesn't know about these things, Master Zhang Zhao indeed entrusted me."
"Why didn't he come in person?"
"He's not free. I also went to him yesterday to discuss going to Zhu, and we talked with him for less than a quarter of an hour." Mi Zhu said.
Zhang Zhao was so busy that he was dizzy, the battle was about to start, and there were more than a dozen previous plans that he had to coordinate and plan. It was a great honor for him to see Mi Zhu for a quarter of an hour.
This Mi Zhu is the real uncle of the country at that time, and although this old Qiao is the head of the country, he has not officially taken office yet.
"Okay, Patriarch Mi please."
Mi Zhu thought for a while and said, "I proposed to come to you on my own initiative, and Mr. Zhang Zhao agreed. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't be able to attend now, let alone know that Mr. Qiao is actively preparing for the wedding."
Mr. Qiao picked up the tea and drank it, but didn't answer. He didn't know Mi Zhu's real intentions, and he didn't want to express his opinion prematurely.
"I mean to let Mr. Qiao keep a low profile. At this time, it is very important to Zhang Yu and us."
"I don't understand, as a father, what's wrong with letting my daughter marry in a good and prosperous way." Qiao Lao said angrily.
"Of course it's true, it just depends on the time. Don't you understand that Mr. Zhang has changed."
"Changed?" Qiao Xuan asked suspiciously.
"Old Qiao, I can't change anymore, or I finally showed my ambition. I didn't understand it before, but now I understand it."
Qiao Xuan was getting more and more confused by Mi Zhu.
This Mi Zhu didn't want to be a joke at all, and said directly: "There is no competition between the two of us, but we should work together to protect Zhang Yu's interests."
"I used to think that in the future, there can only be one monarch or heir to succeed Zhang Yu, but it seems that this is not the case now. Zhang Yu already has ambitions. If China is unified, he will be the monarch, and there can only be one crown prince. , China may only have one prince, but in the huge overseas, there may be many princes."
"We have all gone to sea and know that the outside world is no longer a barren land, but a place full of wealth."
"So, we Zhang Yu's in-laws are not enemies, and we don't need to compete for favor with each other. Instead, we should do our best to protect Zhang Yu's interests, and at the same time protect our interests."
"Zhang Yu's recent series of actions and ambitions have been fully exposed. He invited me to Xuzhou to Jiangdong at the beginning to show his ambitions, but now it is completely exposed, and he wants to compete with his subordinates." The strongest system of the Three Kingdoms
