Because Qu Zheng's maternal grandmother, Aunt Wu, also came from the Wu family, she used sweet words to persuade the head of the Zheng family at the time to allow his son to marry his own niece.

They will continue to be bound to the Zheng family through the next generation.

Before Aunt Wu was taken into the Zheng family, Wu Shouxian had not yet made his fortune.

After he rose to prominence and made a name for himself, the Zheng family learned that they were related to the emperor's favorite eunuch.

The Zheng family's sons were also going through a period of academic decline during those years, so after weighing the pros and cons, the Zheng family patriarch agreed to the marriage.

After all, he had quite a few illegitimate sons; sending one away to marry that powerful figure wouldn't be a loss for him.

"So they say no, but their actions betray them, leading to the marriage alliance—how hypocritical!"

"That's right. It seems that it was Aunt Wu who asked for it, but in fact, the old master didn't really want to object. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone through Wu Shouxian's connections to send Aunt Wu's daughter, who is Qu Zheng's aunt, into the palace."

This young lady named Wu, named Zheng Huaying, resembled her aunt in appearance and was as beautiful as a flower. As soon as she entered the palace, she was given the title of Flower Beauty by the lecherous emperor and was favored by him for a period of time.

One day, the old emperor overdosed on his medicine and suddenly suffered a stroke. He died a few days later. Because he died so suddenly, he didn't give Prince Rong time to move the treasures out of the treasury.

Otherwise, with that wealth, Emperor Mingxi would have had a lot of trouble killing his younger brother.
