Chapter 90

Chapter 90: A kind wife and a bad grandson

Seeing that Benson seized the opportunity and wanted to marry, Zhang Ziqiang looked at Amilia and smiled. This was a good thing. Everyone wanted to tie him up, which was beneficial to the development of the territory. But he was unwilling to exchange for Kailin's happiness, so he replied with a smile: "Earl Benson, thank you for your kindness. The little girl Kailin is only fifteen this year, and it is too early to get married now. Besides, I think her marriage should be decided by herself. When she gets older in a few years, no matter who she chooses, no matter what identity she has, I agree to get married."

Zhang Ziqiang's words violated the secular rules. Benson thought it was the lord's refusal, and his smile was a little stiff. He saw it and was unwilling to have a gap with Benson, so he explained: "I said so in the capital, and Your Majesty also knows what I want."

When everyone heard this, everyone was fine, everyone had a chance! When Benson heard the Lord's explanation, he believed that what he was telling was the truth, and his heart was moving like everyone else.

Karin played from one table to another in dressing, and now when she heard about her marriage, she hurriedly dragged Denise back to the back house, but she felt sweet and felt that this stepfather was really good to her and even more close to her biological father!

It’s no wonder that Bill is so excited. He is also a marquis Zhang Ziqiang and a marquis, but one has a fief and the other has no fief, which is far from the world. If there is a fief, even if it is inherited from generation to generation, the fief will not be taken back. In fact, if there are heirs in the kingdom, as long as they make a small contribution, they can be promoted to the title of the previous generation, which is indirectly hereditary. Without fiefs, they are passed down from generation to generation, and the title is getting lower and lower until they become civilians. There are countless examples of such a country!

Seeing that Zhang Ziqiang has emerged from the fifth duke, another powerful family emerged. This momentum is just a matter of time. He is willing to establish a relationship with the six powerful families of the future kingdom and make him give up the position of head of the family now!

When the nobles heard that Zhang Ziqiang did make his daughter take the initiative, they all planned to send out the most potential young talent in the family. In the future, the talents in the county tried to make Kailin happy, making Kailin better than a princess, and also selected a lot of talents from it. Although these people failed to catch up with Kailin, they also had more opportunities than others, and their efforts were not in vain.

Some nobles saw that Zhang Ziqiang had no children and had only two wives, so they secretly made up their minds and wanted to go home to select beautiful women and send them to the lord's mansion. If the lord likes him, the pillow wind will be better than any other wind!

Zhang Ziqiang talked with Bill and Benson through the banquet and talked about his views. He bluntly said that he should be civilians first and that after years of war, he should make the civilians live in peace. At present, he will give some profits and everyone will gain great benefits in the future!

He also explained in detail the functions and jurisdictions of the various places set up in the city, and vigorously developed industry and commerce, especially the formation workshops and elixirs. The formation workshops should think more and invent more daily necessities. The county should build its own higher colleges and cultivate talents within the county. Not only that, but also use the current vacant land of more than 120 square kilometers to attract as many civilians to settle in the county.

In short, he explained the ideas he could think of at the moment to Bill and Benson in detail. Bill nodded frequently when he heard it, Benson was thinking. The banquet ended very late, and most of them got much better results than they expected, and the host and host were having fun.

Because he was all used to treat guests with the spirits of the restaurant, Zhang Ziqiang, as the lord, met the nobles in the territory for the first time. He was not disturbed by the toasts, and was a little drunk at this time. When he returned to the backyard, he became very interested and recruited Amilia and Xiaocui Xiaomei and Xiaolan together, doing their best to entertain him. Although Amilia and others were shy, they thought that the four of them and the master were left in the main building. As long as he liked them, he would let him do whatever he wanted, but he didn't know that there were four bodyguards including No. 1 to watch!

Luo Lan came back at noon the next day, and there were six men and one woman who came with him at the same time. Zhang Ziqiang hurriedly went out to greet him. As soon as he saw the seven people, he heard someone around him take a deep breath. He knew that it was the four of them. He didn't say much, so he asked Xiaomei to arrange the six men and one woman in the living room and took Luo Lan to another room alone. Wen Yan asked, "Luo Lan, but what happened? Why didn't he come back to attend the cocktail party?"

"Mr. Hou, Baron Alvin, Abigay, Baron Blaze, Baron Brenda and Baron Georgia were in Leshan County and found them as soon as they went there, but Old George died, and Betsy's grandmother remarried to the countryside, and spent a lot of time looking for her."

"So that's it. Thank you for your hard work. From now on, you will serve as the head of the county internal examination department. You will choose the following candidates among the civilians. There are 50 people, 10 people in the open and forty people in the open. The people in the open must keep the secret. The main thing is to collect information for you. If you find any violation of the law and discipline, you will immediately report it to Marquis Bill and Earl Musen. If they do not handle it or handle it unfairly, come and report it to me again! There are unified standards for salary, and you can select people according to the standards."

"Yes, Master Hou." Luo Lan suppressed her inner excitement and replied respectfully.

"Loran, you are a civilian, you understand the sufferings of civilians, and you are Amilia's younger brother. You must be worthy of this position." Although Zhang Ziqiang knew that this was nepotism, his relatives in his family would not help him keep an eye on others, so he would not be blind?

"Mr. Hou, please rest assured. I will do this well and will not let any officials who violate the law and discipline!"

"Okay, go and do it."

After Zhang Ziqiang arranged Luo Lan, he returned to the living room and said to the seven people as he walked: "Let you wait for a long time."

"I have met Mr. Hou!" "I have met Mr. Hou!" Several people hurriedly paid homage.

"Don't be polite, please sit down quickly."

He politely greeted the few people to sit down. Seeing the middle-aged woman sitting tremblingly by the chair, her hands were rough, and the middle-aged man next to her couldn't help but frown slightly. He said to the woman, "You don't have to be afraid, I'm not to hide it. I have a lot of connections with you. I invite you to come this time to ask about your own family situation."

These words made the seven people confused, and the seven people could not remember when they had a connection with the Yu Ye who was at the peak of their lives.

Seeing that no one spoke, Zhang Ziqiang took the initiative to ask the middle-aged woman: "Your name is Annabel. You live a good life at home now. Who else is there in the family?"

Annabel is the second mother. When he heard his question, he stood up and replied: "The little woman has met Mr. Hou. Her family is in good condition. Now she has three stepsons and two stepdaughters. Her husband has passed away."

"Sit down and say." Zhang Ziqiang asked her kindly: "After you remarry, your husband has passed away. You have sons and grandchildren, why don't you go back to your home?" After he asked, he looked at the middle-aged man next to him, and the man seemed to be unaware of it.

Annabel replied while wiping his tears: "Since the little woman has remarried, it has nothing to do with her ex-husband's family."

Zhang Ziqiang couldn't help but feel angry, but he thought that the customs of the two places were different. It would be better not to express his opinion casually before the matter was clear. So he asked the middle-aged man next to Annabel quietly: "You are Baron Betsy, are you at home? Are your parents okay?"

When Betsie was happy, he thought that the marquis might know his father, so he replied respectfully: "My parents are all fine, I wonder if the marquis knows their two elders?"

"oh……"

Zhang Ziqiang responded lightly to Betsy, suppressed the resentment in his heart, turned to look at everyone and asked, "Who are the Barons of Georgia?"

"I have met Lord Marquis, I am." Another long-faced man stood up and dressed very well, making people feel good at it at first sight.

"Baron Georgia, when did your elder George die? What causes it to die?"

"I used to have an elder sister. She has a high talent in practicing and treats my younger brothers and sisters well. She is loved by her father. But when she was going to study in Wangdu, she suddenly died. When her father heard the news, she was furious and did not survive." Georgia said that her elder sister and her father were sad.

Zhang Ziqiang asked again, "How is your mother's health now?"

"My mother is in good health now and she is having fun teasing her grandson every day."

"Okay." Seeing that Georgia was dealing well, he thought that this person knew how to be filial. There is an old Chinese saying: "Filial piety is the first of all virtues." Anyone who is filial will not be bad, even a bad person has medicine to save! He suddenly felt good.

He asked about the situation in other people's homes. When he heard everyone replying that everything was fine, he felt better. Then he turned to ask Betsy and said, "Betsy, Annabel is your grandmother? Why didn't your father take her home?"

Betsy said a little embarrassedly: "I used to be my grandmother, but now she has married from my family, she is no longer my grandmother. The Marquis is joking."

When Zhang Ziqiang heard this, he was furious and said, "Talk nonsense, ask your father who was born? What kind of unfilial person has the face to live in the world?! Come on! Bring this unfilial grandson out of the house!"

Lanelli and Bentelan are Zhang Ziqiang's guards on the surface. As long as he meets guests or goes out, there will always be someone by his side. Bentelan is on duty at this time. When he hears his summons, he quickly runs into the living room, pulls Betsy and drags it out.

Seeing that Mr. Hou who had been kind and was suddenly angry for her affairs, Annabel blamed her grandson again. In a hurry, he bowed to the ground and begged, "Mr. Hou, please spare him. It's not his business, it's the little woman's own idea. The little woman doesn't want to go back, it's not his business, Mr. Hou..." She kept kowtowing while begging.

Zhang Ziqiang quickly stood up and helped Annabel up with his own hands, and said warmly: "Please get up quickly, I dare not be the old lady." Seeing Annabel still begging, he said to Bentelan helplessly: "Let him go back to Leshan County, I don't want to see this person in Rosyding County again."

The other six people in the lobby were all solemn at this time, and they were very respectful to Zhang Ziqiang. They deserved to be the marquis, and the matter was handled very happily!
