Multiverse: Beginning with Forced Binding

Chapter 367: Marquis of Anping

After waking up from the real world again, Chen Xi still lived his own life, and left all the money-making matters to Kawakami Tomie.

Anyway, the company registered by Kawakami Tomie included relevant project types, and the review of health products was not as difficult as the drug approval number, but I didn't know if anyone would interfere.

Chen Xi's small company could not attract the attention of those capital crocodiles, so it was not worth it to do anything for such a small company.

But what Kawakami Tomie was going to do really touched the cake of many people. Let her explore the way first. If she can do it, she will do it. If she can't do it, she will give up. Anyway, they don't care much about these.

Even Chen Xi didn't ask about the things over there. On the surface, he and Kawakami Tomie were like two parallel lines.

Li Chuqing also became busy. She slept in the school dormitory two or three days a week. She mainly went home to live. She got up early in the morning and drove to school. Time was delayed on the road. It was better to sleep a little longer in the dormitory.

After all, in the dormitory, sleeping is just sleeping. When you get home, sleeping is not so simple. Not only will you encounter all kinds of beatings, but you will also be exhausted and can't even get up in the morning.

Because of this, Li Chuqing's girlfriends envy her. Look at other people's boyfriends, and then look at the three-minute one at home. There is no comparison.

The ordinary days passed quickly. Chen Xi notified Kawakami Tomie and Yingwei and started traveling through time. Now he has become accustomed to the life of traveling through time. If he doesn't travel through time after his energy is full, he always feels uncomfortable.

Life is like a play. Chen Xi thinks this sentence is so damn right.

In the last world, he was still an illegal resident of Meteor Street, but in this world, he actually became a nobleman at the beginning.

Chen Xi doesn't know what the "Dream of Red Mansions" that others travel through is like. Anyway, in this world he traveled through, the dynasty is called Chen, the royal family is surnamed Chen, and he is considered a royal relative.

Chen Xi said that his status as a royal family member was really worthless. His ancestors had never made any contributions. They were given the title of a prince just because they were of the same clan. It was not a hereditary title.

By the time of Chen Xi's generation, the family was declining, and he was the only one left in the family. The title of prince was downgraded to a marquis. He was considered a contemporary marquis.

The reason why we know that this is the world of "Dream of Red Mansions" is because the four kings and eight dukes are too famous. It is hard not to know.

Chen Xi's ancestors were named the Prince of Anping, and now they have become the Marquis of Anping. They are pure rich idlers without any real power. They rely on the output of the fiefdom to make a living, plus some industries under the name of the marquis' mansion.

As a marquis without real power, Chen Xi is not taken seriously even by the royal family. In the circle of nobles, his existence is dispensable.

In terms of age, he is a teenager, 18 years old, and has not married because he had been in mourning for three years before. Now that his parents have passed away, there is no one to help him find a marriage.

The population of Anping Marquis's Mansion is also very simple, there are not so many servants. The housekeeper of the Marquis's Mansion is the shadow guard. He is in charge of the front yard and the outside, and Kawakami Tomie is in charge of the backyard.

In terms of status, both of them are servants of the Marquis's Mansion, so Kawakami Tomie's status can only be a concubine at most, and the position of the wife of the Marquis is out of the question.

Chen Xi likes this kind of rich and idle life very much. The mess of the Jia Mansion has nothing to do with him, and the open and secret struggles between the emperor and the emperor have nothing to do with him. He just thinks that he is here for vacation.

"Then the Marquis doesn't care about the matter of the Twelve Hairpins?" Kawakami Tomie adapted very well and immediately changed her words to call the Marquis.

"Stop it, they are just a bunch of little girls, I dare not interfere, by the way... How old is Lin Daiyu this year?"

"Six years old."

"How do you know?"

"I heard it from the people in the Jia Mansion before."

"That's it, the people in the Jia Mansion have mouths like loose cotton trousers, there is nothing they dare not say."

"Well, the whole Jia Mansion is like a sieve. I have traveled through so many times, and I have never seen such unruly servants."

"They are all spoiled." Chen Xi thought of something and asked, "Is Jia Min dead?"

"Dead."

"Is Lin Daiyu coming?"

"I heard from the people in the Jia Mansion that Jia Lian has gone to Yangzhou, and the old lady of the Jia Mansion wants to bring Lin Daiyu back."

"Then what?"

"She can't come back for the time being."

"Why?"

"She has to observe mourning." Kawakami Tomie said: "According to the news from there, Lin Daiyu has to observe mourning for her mother for three years before coming to the Jia Mansion."

"Oh, the unsolved mystery of history has an answer."

There have always been two opinions about how old Lin Daiyu was when she entered the Jia Mansion. One is that she was five or six years old and was taken in after Jia Min died. The other is that she was about ten years old, which was calculated based on the arrival of Xue Baochai.

There are many different opinions, each with its own reason.

In this world, it seems that Lin Daiyu will not be able to come in a short time.

Chen Xi thinks so too. Thinking about what Lin Daiyu said after entering the Jia Mansion, it doesn't sound like something a six-year-old child can say. No matter how precocious she is, she won't be that early. This is not the world of Naruto.

"My Lord, don't you want to intervene?" Kawakami Tomie's eyes showed the spirit of "not afraid of chaos if you see it well".

"Tell me, what do you want to do?"

"Save Lin Ruhai. The reason why Lin Daiyu is so miserable is that her parents died early. If Lin Ruhai didn't die, wouldn't everything be ruined?"

"You're making it so big?" Chen Xi couldn't help laughing and pointed to the sky: "Aren't you afraid of being targeted by Jing Huan?"

"Lord, is there really Jinghuan in this world?" Kawakami Tomie felt her situation and said, "I'm restricted. This should be a regular world."

"It's definitely a regular world, without any extraordinary powers, but I can't say for sure about Jinghuan's situation. Don't forget that there are also metaphysics in the regular world."

"What exactly is Jinghuan?"

"I don't know. I'm more inclined to think she's a monster. Even if she's a fairy from heaven, she's a monster based on her behavior."

"Can you deal with her?"

"As long as Jinghuan doesn't come in person, I'm not afraid of her. Can she invade my spiritual world?"

"That's right." Kawakami Tomie nodded in approval. They were just restricted by the world and couldn't use their abilities, not that they had lost those abilities.

It would be fine if Jinghuan didn't appear in Chen Xi's dream. If she really came, it would be a question whether she could leave.

In Chen Xi's opinion, Jinghuan might not appear. At most, he would send out the monk and the Taoist priest. He didn't take this little Karami seriously at all.

Therefore, Chen Xi was not afraid of Jing Huan. As for whether to save Lin Ruhai, he had not decided yet.

"Because I'm lazy." Chen Xi's reason was very serious: "This is the capital. If I want to save Lin Ruhai, I have to go to Yangzhou. How can he have the face to let me go to him in person?"

"My Lord, if you don't go, Lin Ruhai will have no chance to return to the capital to find you. He will die directly in Yangzhou."

"Let's talk about it later. Anyway, he won't die in the short term. I'll see when I've stayed in the capital enough."

"Okay, then will I do the business?"

"Well, all those shops are used. You can do whatever you can. Don't worry about others' coveting. In this world, I am also a royal family member."

"What if the emperor is thinking about it?"

"Then we should take the initiative, Just offer half of the profit."

"Is half enough?"

"I am a royal relative after all. Even if we are distant relatives, we are of the same clan. The emperor will not be too greedy. Half is enough."

"Okay, I understand."

"Take your and the shadow guard's indentures to the government office and get them cancelled. People will always look down on us if we work as slaves."

"Then we are employed by the Marquis' Mansion?"

"Yes, you have become commoners, and with the background of the Marquis' Mansion, you will not be easily bullied."

"My Lord, what if someone wants to bully me?" Kawakami Tomie said, stretching out her fingers and drawing circles on Chen Xi's chest.

Chen Xi saw through her trick at a glance: "I understand. I'll give you the status of a concubine later, so you don't have to worry about anyone thinking about you."

"What if there are still powerful people thinking about me~"

Chen Xi glared at her unhappily: "If you want to kill someone, just say it directly."

"No way~ I'm gentle."

"Yes, yes, you are the most gentle. Get off me now. In the yard in broad daylight, do you want to be executed on the spot?"

Kawakami Tomie threw a coquettish look and whispered in Chen Xi's ear: "It's not impossible~"

Chen Xi: ╮(╯▽╰)╭

To deal with this kind of succubus, you shouldn't be polite, you must beat her with a stick!

The maids in the Marquis's mansion were all driven out of the yard. They couldn't see what was happening here. At most, they could vaguely hear some discordant sounds, and their faces were all blushing.

The Marquis and the Fu General Manager were really... too much.

Soon, the Marquis's mansion got the news that General Manager Fu was promoted to a concubine and became Aunt Fu. Before the Marquis's wife came, she legitimately held the power of the housekeeper.

Kawakami Tomie lectured the maids in the Marquis's mansion: "I don't care whether you have the intention to climb into the bed or not. I am here to convey a message from the Marquis."

All the maids listened obediently.

Kawakami Tomie tapped her cheek lightly: "The Marquis said that if you don't have my appearance and figure, you should save your energy. Don't make everyone look bad. I will have to deal with you later."

The maids immediately became honest. They couldn't compare. This really couldn't be compared.

To be honest, if they really had Aunt Fu's appearance and figure, they would not climb into the bed. It would be better to be a concubine for the Marquis than to enter the palace as a queen.

With Tomie's appearance, she must be treated as a favorite concubine.

The maids and servants in the mansion were all sold in Chen Xi's hands. It can be said that their lives and deaths depended on his thoughts. Since they were all his own people, their treatment should be improved.

"Five Animal Health-preserving Exercises", Reverse Mengpo Soup, Unlimited Fighting, Xinyou Swordsmanship, all of these were arranged, and there were also cultural courses. In the future, the servants in the mansion must be as strong as dragons and tigers.

The cook in the mansion also received a cooking encyclopedia rewarded by the Marquis as a treasure. The main reason was that Chen Xi was lazy. He was already a Marquis, so could he still cook for himself?

Kawakami Tomie also started to run the business of the mansion outside. As soon as the beauty products came out, they caused a shock among the nobles. In addition, the latest grain varieties were also cultivated in the manor in the suburbs.

When Jia Lian rushed back from Yangzhou, the Anping Marquis's Mansion was occupying the hot search in the capital. It was all about the recent money-making of the Anping Marquis' Mansion and the marriage of the Marquis.

Because Chen Xi was very sensible and gave half of the proceeds to the emperor, the emperor was very pleased and began to value this distant relative. When he learned that Chen Xi was not married yet, he immediately said: "Who do you like? I will personally grant you a marriage."

Chen Xi bowed respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty. When I find someone I like, I will definitely ask Your Majesty to help me get married."

Somehow this matter got out, and all of a sudden, the young ladies waiting to be married in the capital couldn't sit still. That was the Anping Marquis' Mansion, which was in the limelight. If she married there, she would be the Marquis' wife, and there would be no pressure from her parents-in-law.

This is simply a good marriage that you can't find even with a lantern!

Chen Xi had no intention of getting married at all. Finding a Marquis' wife to take care of Tomie?

Isn't that a disease?

He can't marry a wife and then favor a concubine and kill his wife.

Besides, he hasn't met anyone he likes in this world. Most of the legendary Twelve Beauties... haven't reached adulthood yet.

Chen Xi asked around and found that Qin Keqing hadn't married into the Ningguo Mansion yet. The question is... what is this woman's identity?

If Qin Keqing is really the bloodline left by the deposed prince, then Chen Xi and he are also close relatives, right?

Of course, close relatives are just a setting, and there is definitely no close blood relationship. If he pretends not to know about this, can he marry her?

As we all know, Anping Hou is a rich and idle man. He has no power and never gets involved in messy things. It is normal for him not to know many things.

If he marries Qin Keqing, it will change her fate to some extent.

Speaking of which... has Qin Keqing reached the age of marriage?

Let Kawakami Tomie investigate it later. If it doesn't work, it will be her. I don't know if the emperor will grant the marriage.

Chen Xi is also afraid. He has become Tang Monk meat now. Anyone who sees him wants to come up and take a bite. There are too many invitations received at home, and he is too lazy to read them.

A powerless marquis has his own industry and the emperor as his backer. He doesn't need to give face to anyone. What is the visiting card, all of them are burned.

With Chen Xi's style, the emperor will be afraid of anyone but him.

A few days later, Chen Xi was really harassed and had no choice but to apply to the palace to meet the emperor and proposed to marry Qin Keqing.

"Why choose her?" The emperor asked casually.

"Because she is beautiful." Chen Xi answered bluntly, focusing on the face.

The emperor paused in drinking water and looked at Chen Xi, who did not dodge and his eyes were full of sincerity.

Chen Xi's eyes were blingbling: Your Majesty, you are not wrong, I am an old pervert!

The emperor: (눈_눈)

Is this distant relative of mine going the way of a playboy?

You are marrying a wife, not taking a concubine!

It's rare to use the standard of taking a concubine to marry a wife.

The emperor also saw that it really couldn't work without parents around.

Thinking about the things involved behind this matter, and the blood relationship between the two people, his face turned serious on the spot: "No!"

"Why?"

"The Qin family is not worthy. You are a royal family member and the current Marquis of Anping. You can't marry the daughter of a minor official as your principal wife. Your status doesn't match."

Chen Xi was sure that Qin Keqing might really have royal blood, so the emperor didn't agree. After all, they didn't know that his blood was different.
