Chapter 221 Discussing the Standards

"Then change this to, first of all, the family does not need to continue the family line."

Helian Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was relieved.

This standard is easy to say, whether it is him or his family, they do not need his wife to continue the family line.

After all, for Helian Shi's parents, as long as Helian Shi gets married, even if he brings a man back home, they will accept it.

Qin Shu continued to explain.

"The Qin family already has six children, and there is no need to add new children. I don't have any more ideas. So if the other party can't accept this condition, then don't come to the martial arts competition to recruit a bride, otherwise it will make it difficult for everyone."

Helian Shi was not surprised this time, but nodded in agreement.

He didn't really want his own children, and Qin Xixi and the others were very cute, so why let Qin Shu suffer again.

Qin Xixi also listened obediently and did not try to persuade her mother to change her mind.

[That's good, hehe, General Helian and General Fu Yan are both satisfied. ]

As long as the two new fathers she likes have a chance, Xixi will be very happy.

Qin Shu:...

Figure it out, she was the one choosing a husband, how come she was being manipulated by little Xixi.

She tried hard to ignore little Xixi's thoughts and continued to discuss with Helian Shi.

This criterion is the most important and the most difficult to meet, while the rest are much easier to meet.

For example, you must be good to your family, have no criminal record, and you can't have a mistress like Zhou Yiyang...

It can be said that the remaining conditions, even if the Qin family is not recruiting a son-in-law, there will be these necessary conditions.

Helian Shi wrote them down one by one.

After Qin Shu finished speaking, he glanced at these standards and felt more and more that he still had a chance.

However, being a referee was a done deal. Even if he couldn't become Qin Shu's husband, he had to think about it carefully and couldn't let other people who were not as good as him become Qin Shu's husband.

To do this, he had to know who would participate in Qin Shu's martial arts competition.

Helian Shi thought about it for a while and asked tentatively.

"Not only the invitations to the head of the Qin family, but also how were they distributed?"

"The direction of the flow of these invitations must be recorded carefully, and people who don't like them can't be allowed to get the invitations. It's better to be safe than sorry."

Qin Shu didn't notice anything wrong, and she also felt that the invitations needed to be well controlled.

"I have given all the invitations to Qixuan. I mean to let Qixuan hand them over to the emperor, and everything is up to the emperor."

Qin Xixi heard this and thought of the invitation she had asked for and sent to Fu Yan, and she felt guilty.

But in her opinion, not to mention that Qin Qixuan would definitely tell the emperor where the two invitations went, even if the emperor himself distributed the invitations, he would definitely give one to Helian Shi and Fu Yan.

And Helian Shi was a little surprised by Qin Shu's way of distributing them.

She actually handed the invitations directly to the emperor? Then her marriage would be completely controlled by the emperor!

If the emperor is narrow-minded and doesn't want the Qin family to get any help, then Qin Shu will not only have to spend the rest of her life with someone she doesn't like, but the Qin family may also go downhill.

Although the current emperor should not do this, at least not so obviously, Qin Shu's move is indeed a bit bold, directly handing over her fate to others.

"You are so bold, aren't you afraid that the emperor will send people to the Qin family?"

Qin Shu understood what Helian Shi was talking about.

The Qin family is now like a fat sheep, with enough wealth to fill the national treasury. If the emperor rises and wipes out the Qin family, Qin Shu will have nowhere to cry.

"It's not up to me to judge, everything is up to the emperor. Our Qin family is the emperor's merchant, and we should listen to the emperor in everything. If the emperor doesn't trust the Qin family, then Qin Shu should also follow the emperor's wishes and let the emperor rest assured."

Qin Shu knew in her heart that if the emperor wanted to destroy the Qin family, it would only be a matter of moving his fingers. Their Qin family did not have such great ability to resist the imperial power.

But if the emperor trusts the Qin family, they only need to pay a large amount of taxes every year to meet half of the expenditure of the national treasury.

Compared with confiscating the Qin family's wealth at one time, this kind of long-term accumulation is naturally more tempting.

And Qin Shu's implicit meaning is that she has no intention of participating in the struggle among the princes, not taking sides, not participating in politics, and only listening to the emperor's will. Whatever the emperor tells them to do, the Qin family will do it.

Helian Shi also understood.

This martial arts competition seems to be to select a husband for Qin Shu, but in fact it is also a letter of surrender from the Qin family to the emperor.

If the emperor wants to place someone in the Qin family, it's up to him. The Qin family is not afraid of being checked by the emperor for their loyalty to the emperor.

However, the chip in this gamble is Qin Shu's own marriage.

While Helian Shi felt sorry for her, he couldn't help but admire her very much.

Previously, Helian Shi fell in love with Qin Shu because she was a very interesting woman. He felt a kind of power and vitality in Qin Shu. That ability was something he could not see in others.

Now, Helian Shi could not help but admire Qin Shu even more. She dared to use her marriage to exchange for the opportunity for the Qin family to become the emperor's confidant. Not to mention women in the world, how many men can grasp this?

But Qin Shu did not make this decision on a whim.

It was really that Xiao Xixi had too much contact with the royal family in recent days.

And Xiao Xixi had the most contact with the little grandson of the emperor. From the perspective of others, it was inevitable that they would think that the Qin family was intentionally supporting the prince's faction.

Qin Shu did not want to get involved in this dispute, so she simply surrendered to the emperor.

Anyway, the emperor raised the little grandson in the palace, and as long as the little grandson did not come into contact with the prince, the Qin family would not be accused of forming cliques.

At this point, Helian Shi also understood Qin Shu's meaning completely.

After Qin Shu discussed with Helian Shi, she prepared to say goodbye to Helian Shi.

In fact, not long after Qin Shu left the Qin Mansion, Qin Qixuan also followed her out.

However, Qin Shu went to the Helian Mansion, while Qin Qixuan went to the wine house.

Qin Qixuan never drank much, and occasionally drank in official circles, and had to drink.

This time he went to the restaurant just to look for the drunk Old Two.

Under his persuasion, Old Two finally went out. Qin Qixuan was afraid that something might happen to him, so he had someone keep an eye on him.

Unexpectedly, although Old Two went out, he went out to drink.

When Qin Qixuan heard the servants report that Old Two was drunk outside, he was immediately furious and held his forehead helplessly.

"Lead the way, I want to see how long he will indulge in his private affairs."

Now Old Two still looks like the second young master of the Qin family!

Although Qin Qixuan was angry, he also went there to solve the problem.

When he arrived at the restaurant, he took a deep breath outside the door and then stepped in.
