Chapter 44 Little Zhuge, your stepmother is even angry! (Crazy pursuit of reading)

When Zhuge Weidao got off the car outside the gate of the Marquis Mansion in Wuxiang, he walked into the Marquis Mansion accompanied by his two men, Guo Xiaobao and He Tianran, and walked all the way through the lobby, second hall, third hall, inner hall, extension building, and...

When running to the back house.

He finally knows what it means to be as deep as the sea, and what it means to be a top family member!

Such a large prince's mansion is one of the mansions owned by the king, two princes and three princes of the Zhuge family.

When he was studying in Beijing, he looked at the mansions that once belonged to this prince and that prince, and he felt envious in his heart. He wanted to shout, "This is what a man should do." Unexpectedly, he would really become Zhuge Liang today.

He is a descendant of the top family of the New Ming Dynasty, such as the Shi family!

Walking on the spotlessly cleaned brick road, the curtains of the houses were hanging low, and there were layers of flowers, grass, mountains and rocks on both sides. The male servants and Japanese ladies in white and cyan servant uniforms walked with their heads down, and they all looked respectfully when they saw Zhuge Weidao.

salute.

Zhuge Weidao immediately understood the "dissatisfaction" of King Zhuge Wuzhong and why Zhuge Weidao had to work so hard.

Although the Zhuge family, due to the "silent prophecies" of their ancestors (which never predicted the future of China) and the existence of the "Twenty Volumes of the Book of Heaven", what they have done over the past hundred years can be regarded as a model family that is self-denial and loves the people.

A gate valve is a gate valve after all!

King Zhuge Wuzhong may have seen the trend of the Zhuge family becoming more clannish during his lifetime, but he was unable to change it, so he was so angry in the portrait.

And Zhuge Weidao, who was born in this glorious and prosperous top family and was extremely talented himself, was certainly not willing to fall from the top of the mountain. And King Zhuge Wuzhong just left behind a military advisor system that could allow the talents among his concubines to succeed.

Jun climbed up based on his ability. Of course, the qualifications for climbing up can be obtained through examinations, but whether he can climb up to the position of military adviser depends on his own talents.

That's why Zhuge Dao uses all kinds of means to stand out from the eight hundred Zhuges.

Zhuge Weidao was thinking as he followed Guo Xiaobao along a long walkway, and soon arrived at the entrance of a garden. Looking up, he saw a cornice hidden among the rocks. There seemed to be someone upstairs.

When playing the piano, the sound is a bit fast and messy. Even a layman like Zhuge Weidao can tell that the person playing the piano is in a restless mood.

Amidst the sound of the piano, Zhuge Weidao followed Guo Xiaobao into the garden, then followed the stairs built among the rockery rocks and went up to a high attic. The attic faced Shicha Sea. Sitting inside, you can not only see the movement of Shicha Sea.

From the boat, you can also see the scenery of Feng Pavilion, Dragon Tower and Xiaohan on the other side - there is more than one Prince Wu's Palace over there, there are also Prince Cheng's Palace, Zhennan Prince's Palace and Zhendong Prince's Palace, a total of four palaces, all along the shore of Shichahai

The north bank is lined up, it is really a wealth that touches the sky!

Zhuge Weidao stopped outside the attic, looking at the scenery and thinking about his relationship with his stepmother.

Just as I was thinking about it, a maid standing outside the attic reported in a low voice: "Old madam, the second master has arrived."

The music inside suddenly stopped, and then an angry voice came out: "Daozi, come in and talk."

Walking into the pavilion, Zhuge Weidao saw a plump and beautiful middle-aged woman in her thirties, sitting upright behind a table with a guzheng, and two maids waiting on both sides. Zhuge Weidao guessed

, this must be his stepmother, Guo Rong, Guo Xiaobao's aunt.

Zhuge Weidao's eldest brother, Zhuge Weixue, was also sitting on a chair nearby, with a wry smile on his face. He pointed at Guo Rong and clasped his fists, probably asking Zhuge Weidao to pay homage to his stepmother quickly.

After all, the stepmother is also a mother!

When Zhuge Weidao saw this scene, he breathed a sigh of relief - it seemed that the relationship between the original Zhuge Weidao and his stepmother was still very pure, so he hurriedly bowed respectfully: "My son is the Dao, and I pay my respects to my mother.

"

"Snapped!"

Stepmother Guo Rong, who was furious at the sight, had already slapped the table, which shocked Zhuge Weidao.

What does this mean? This woman spends money on herself just like Empress Dowager Zheng, so she should think highly of herself. Why has she turned against her now?

Zhuge Weidao, the amnesiac Zhuge, was confused. Zhuge Weixue over there had already spoken: "Second brother, mother is angry because of your private life-long decision with Natalie."

What?

This time Zhuge Weidao was even more confused. Does this matter have something to do with her becoming a stepmother? Zhuge Weixue, whose eldest brother is his father, is not doing well! Zhuge Weixue is the current Marquis of Wuxiang and the head of the family!

When Zhuge Weixue saw Zhuge Weidao's confused look, he just sighed. His brother, who was capable of maneuvering and calculating, was already a candidate military advisor, but he hadn't recovered much of his memory yet.

"Second brother," Zhuge Weixue said again, "I also just found out that my mother has been helping you to match up with the eldest lady of the Dahei family. You brought this matter up yourself, but now..."

"What? The Dahei family?" Zhuge Weidao was stunned again and again, "Which country are they from? Why is this surname so strange?"

Zhuge Wei said: "Japanese, do you remember the four major chaebols in Japan?"

Zhuge Weidao certainly remembers the four major chaebols, Sumitomo, Mitsubishi, Mitsui, and Yasuda, but there is no Daikoku family among them!

"It's not very clear." Zhuge Weidao asked, "Which four families?"

Zhuge Weidao sighed: "They are Sumitomo, Daikoku, Goto, and Tagawa. Among them, Sumitomo made his fortune by developing the Besshi Copper Mountain. The ancestor of the Daikoku family was a mint and opened the Tsuneshisho mint to mint silver coins for the shogunate."

"Ginza Daikoku Chang is." Zhuge Weidao had already remembered, "Is that Goto the one who opens the gold throne?"

"Yes, yes, one makes silver coins and the other makes gold coins," Zhuge Wei said. "The Tagawa family is the Zheng family in Qianzuo, the ones who make copper coins. In fact, their family cannot be considered Japanese. They are a branch of the Zheng family in Japan. Today's Japan

, except for the Tokugawa clan, which is a hereditary shogun, these four families are the richest. After the reform and founding of the country in Japan, these four families followed the shogunate in investing in industry and commerce, and secretly engaged in human trafficking, making a lot of money.

Black money. If the legitimate daughter of the great Black family marries into our family, the dowry will not be less than one million silver dollars, right?"

"But aren't Japan and our Ming Dynasty enemies?" Zhuge Weidao asked with a frown.

Zhuge Weixue was speechless when he asked this question - he actually just found out that his good brother and stepmother Guo Rong were planning to marry into the Daikoku family, Japan's largest conglomerate, and now it seems like he was behind the plan.

Same.

However, Zhuge Weixue, the eldest brother, does not dare to criticize his amnesiac brother now, because he already knows that his younger brother has passed the military advisor examination and is already a candidate military advisor - no one can become a military advisor even if he has lost his memory, and he passed unanimously.

.

"Daozi," Zhuge Weixue said to his brother patiently, "our relationship with Japan is very complicated and cannot be generalized. The main enemies of us in Japan are the samurai class, especially those poor middle- and lower-level samurai.

I dreamed of fighting with us. If I were defeated, I would probably die. If I won, I would be rewarded.

The chaebols and big businessmen in Japan do not dare to be our enemies. Businessmen are very practical. Comparing how much steel, coal, oil, grain, and electricity Japan has will make everything clear. Japan

How can they be our opponents? Moreover, except for mining in their country, the real profitable business of those big Japanese businessmen is controlled by us! Going to war with us? Isn’t this crazy? So Japan’s four major chaebols have a very close relationship with us.

Well, it’s not uncommon for the legitimate daughters of the four major chaebols to pay huge dowries to the bastards of the eight major aristocratic families.”

"Mother," Zhuge Weidao looked at the angry little mother and said with a smile, "I have Natalie now, so I'd better push this marriage aside."

"Pushed it away?" Stepmother Guo Rong was almost furious. She pointed at Zhuge Weidao's nose and said, "This is the marriage he begged me to arrange. He said that this marriage will not only get a large dowry, but also a large dowry.

It can also bring the Zhuge family closer to Japan's chaebols, and the chaebols can be used to restrict the shogunate and the feudal lords in the future. With these relationships, it will not be difficult to find a military advisor position in the future."

When Zhuge Weixue saw his little mother explode, he quickly helped to persuade her: "Mom, don't be anxious, let this be the case. He has to let things go, right?"

When Guo Rong heard this, she became even more angry. She pointed at Zhuge Weixue's nose and shouted: "Now your brother is confused and has fallen in love with a Rakshasa girl. Are you, the eldest brother, confused too? I don't think so."

go!"

After saying this, the stepmother stood up suddenly, kicked over the piano table in front of her, and rushed out without looking back, leaving only the two Zhuge brothers staring at each other.
