Duke Duan Bi of Wei suddenly showed a little embarrassment on his face when he saw Yun Zhonghe (Ao Yu).

The angry Hou Ao Xin said, "Yu'er, why are you still doing? Why don't you pay homage to your father-in-law?"

Yun Zhonghe stepped forward and bowed and said, "Son-in-law, pay homage to his father-in-law."

Duke Duan Bi of Wei smiled heartily and said, "Hello, my dear nephew, I am so happy to hear that you have returned safely."

It’s not right here, it’s called a virtuous nephew, not a virtuous son-in-law.

The angry Marquis Ao Xin's face suddenly changed, and she said immediately: "Duke of Wei, what do you mean? Does the engagement we set before do not count, do you want to go back on your word?"

Wei Guo said justice: "My brother, come in and talk, come in and talk."

The angry Hou Ao Xin said, "No, I'll just chat here."

Duke Duan Bi of Wei said: "Brother Ao Xian, the engagement we set is of course counted. We are all century-old nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty. How can we not count the engagement? But things have changed a little."

Ao Xin said: "What changes?"

Duan Bi said: "Isn't it rumored that Ao Yu's nephew was seriously ill, so why not accidents? There were no news in the next few months, and my daughter is not young anymore. We can't let her delay it all the time. But we can't ruin this engagement. It happened that His Majesty the Emperor issued an order to adopt Ao Ming as your heir. So I discussed with your old man and got engaged to my Yingying and your Ao Ming. So we are still in-laws, but Yingying married Ao Ming, not Ao Yu."

As soon as these words came out, Yun Zhonghe's eyes shrank.

The information is clearly written. In November of the previous year, Duan Bi and Ao Xin made a marriage contract and the two families joined forces.

At that time, this marriage shocked the entire Southern Zhou Empire.

Duan Yingying is not only the legitimate daughter of Duke Wei, but also a famous talented woman in Jiangzhou Prefecture. She is proficient in both piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. The people who pursue her are like carp crossing the river.

And who is Ao Yu? Basically, there is no need to introduce it.

The most waste in the Southern Zhou Empire, ten thousand people were killed, and the patron of the lower-class prostitutes.

This reputation cannot be described as stinky and unpleasant. Duan Yingying betrothed to Ao Yu? It cannot be described as toads or swans, nor can it be described as flowers placed on cow dung.

After this engagement came out, countless young heroes were heartbroken and wrote countless painful poems, as if they felt like they would lose my love forever.

There are also many nobles who mocked Duke of Wei in their hearts. You are also a dignified duke and a top noble. Even if Ao Xin is a powerful minister in the imperial world, others need to curry favor with him, but you don’t need it? Your title is higher than Ao Xin.

Moreover, Duan Yingying is a proud and talented woman, and everyone will think she will resist marriage.

But unexpectedly, she accepted it quietly, which was completely inconsistent with her personality.

But at that time, the fat man Ao Yu felt that he was not worthy of Duan Yingying, so he took the initiative to escape from marriage.

When Yun Zhonghe read this material, it was really strange. Duan Yingying was arrogant and arrogant, and she was above Xiang. How could she agree to marry Ao Yu? She should not even look down on Ao Yu.

However, Ao Xin and his wife were very happy at that time.

They think their son is excellent and very good. But in everyone's eyes, Ao Yu is the number one waste. So now that this year is not young, the marriage is still not settled, so you can't find a small family, right?

They wanted to be a good match, but they couldn't find one at all. The other woman looked down on Ao Yu. Now that the Duke of Wei is actually going to marry, Ao Xin and his wife are of course very happy.

Their fatness can not only marry a wife, but also a wife with a first-class appearance, figure, talent, and identity. Any parent wants her son to be more glorious and marry a good wife.

But Yun Zhonghe was born with a conspiracy theory, so of course he didn't think so.

The reason why Duke of Wei proposed a marriage was actually very heartbroken.

That is, he thinks Ao Yu will definitely die.

It is not entirely a secret that Ao Yu's poor health is in the top aristocratic circle. Many doctors have determined that he will definitely not live long, which is the past two years.

Therefore, it is for sure to select a young hero from the Ao family to adopt him.

Adoption is very common among nobles, and it can even be called countless.

Not to mention others, Ao Xin himself was adopted. His biological father was Ao Ting, and the previous generation of Nulang Hou was Ao Qing. He had three sons in total, so he was originally not short of heirs.

But in a battle with the Kingdom of Daliang, the two sons were broken, leaving only one young son, Miaomiao.

Unexpectedly, this youngest son was infected with smallpox and died prematurely.

Therefore, the previous generation of Nulang Hou Ao Qing had no heirs, so he adopted the best young man from the clan, namely Ao Xin.

At that time, Ao Xin had already stood out among the generals and was promoted to General Yingyang with his military merits in his early twenties.

Now the old man of the Ao family mentioned by Duke Wei is Ao Xin's biological father Ao Ting, and is also the head of the Ao family. He has always been a good deal about the affairs of the clan.

Ao Xin usually calls this old man Ao Ting the eldest father and is absolutely respectful and filial.

It was also the will of Ao Ming to adopt Ao Xin.

This is exactly what Duke Duan Bi of Wei values.

Because Ao Ming is of top talent, reputation, appearance, and demeanor.

From which aspect, Ao Ming and Duan Yingying are both made of heaven and earth.

As long as Ao Yu died and Ao Ming adopted him, Duan Yingying would naturally marry Ao Ming.

So the Duke of Wei was preparing for the future. As long as Ao Yu died a year or two, he would let Ao Ming and Duan Yingying get married.

Some time ago, the old man Ao Ting directly got engaged to Duke Wei to Ao Ming and Duan Yingying.

Let me put it this way, the Duke of Wei and his family were definitely applauding Ao Yu's death.

Now I finally understand why Duan Yingying didn't resist marriage, because she knew that Ao Yu would die, and she wanted to marry Ao Ming, a talented and beautiful man, not Ao Yu, a waste.

At this moment, the rage Hou Aoxin felt extremely angry.

Even if he doesn't understand the worldly ways and can't be a human being, he still understands the connotation of it.

Too heartbroken!

Your Duke of Wei despised our fat man at that time, so he didn't propose marriage.

Before I got married, I hope my family will die soon, and then you will marry Ao Ming?

Ao Xin suddenly said angrily: "Why don't I know about Duan Yingying and Ao Ming's engagement?"

Wei Guo said justice: "You were fighting abroad and focused on national affairs. How dare you disturb you when your children are in love? And you have always been in charge of family affairs, and everything is decided by your old man. During that time, our ancestors were infected with cold and were in urgent condition. Yingying grew up under grandma's knees since childhood, so she was very filial, so she proposed to cheer for grandma and let grandma recover. So the two families decided on the marriage, but our ancestors were happy and were really healed."

Yeah?

That would be a coincidence!

"Then why doesn't my wife know?" Ao Xin said angrily.

Wei Guogong said justice: "At that time, Mrs. Zun could not bear the severity. We were afraid that it would cause too much stimulation to him, so we didn't tell her."

"Hahaha..." Ao Hou Ao laughed in anger.

As an important minister of the empire, he either fought outside or was busy in the court all year round.

It is only recently that I have been idle and have not been home for many years.

So everything in the family was left to the old man Ao Ting as the leader, and of course his wife was the leader in the affairs of the mansion.

His wife is as fierce as a fire. His old man Ao Ting is very tense, and Ao Xin is always in a dilemma.

Of course, the root cause of the bad relationship between Mrs. Nulang Hou and Mr. Ao Ting is because of Ao Yu.

The old man disliked Ao Yu very much and would scold and corporal punishment at any time. Mrs. Anglang Hou contradicted the old man many times for his son.

So the relationship between father-in-law and daughter-in-law is very bad.

Although Ao Ting is Ao Xin's biological father, he is still nominally an uncle, so Mrs. Anlang Hou was barely able to compete with each other in the mansion.

However, when Ao Yu was seriously ill, Mrs. Nulang Hou was sad all day long, crying, and completely let go of the affairs of the clan.

So Mr. Ao Ting took over the power and said the same thing.

Just yesterday, Ao Xin insisted on going to see the old man Ao Ting before dinner. But Mrs. Nulang Hou insisted on going after dinner, so as not to kneel there and listen to the lessons endlessly.

Ao Xin couldn't resist his wife, so he waited for dinner to take Yun Zhonghe to pay homage to the old man Ao Ting.

What's the result?

Ao Yu was completely ignored by the old man.

Mr. Ao Ting kept saying a lesson, teaching Ao Xin a lesson for half an hour.

Now Yun Zhonghe and Ao Xin can see it.

Letting Ao Ming inherit the throne of Nulang is the common will of the entire Ao family and the will of the entire Duke of Wei.

Moreover, the emperor personally came forward to let Ao Ming adopt it, which was on the surface a favor to Ao Xin, but it may not be without the Ao family and the Duke of Wei's mansion.

So Ao Ming has a big backer.

Not only the old man Ao Ting, but also the entire Ao clan and the Duke of Wei State.

Ao Xin was really heartbroken.

The Marquis Mansion of Nulang has declined. It is only when he is fighting outside that the Ao family has its current glory.

It was because Ao Xin did not grant Duke, so all the three brothers were named Earl.

How prominent is the Ao family at this time?

As a result, this is how you plot against me behind the scenes?

What do you think of my son Ao Yu as? Do you play tricks on me as a fool?
