“Eighth Brother is getting married late, and the wedding hasn’t taken place despite the engagement. He picked his Princess Consort himself, and he likes her deeply. At the moment, he could not take in any other women, which is totally understandable. I have been there before, and I can understand the
meaning.” Zhou Huailing helped Zhou Huaijin to explain.
Having said these words, he continued. “But the young maids have been selected for both me and other brothers, so it is not proper if the Eighth Brother gets no one. Since he doesn’t want to marry any of them, those girls from poor families can be selected to become his maids, which is proper for him
and for them. What do you think, father?”
Zhou Huailing asked with a polite tone. He would not be bothered to help Zhou Huai
if it were for other things. He had been wishing that father would hate him for what he did, but he had stepped forward this time.
He had been married for years, but none of his wives or concubines had ever gotten pregnant, which made him both anxious and worried.
Eighth Brother was yet to get married, since the Queen was seriously-ill and he could not possibly hold the wedding when the Queen was so sick.
It was great if he did not want any of the women. If the father forced him to accept them and he fathered a child with one or two of them, then his own children would not have a proper position. Therefore, he was going to stop this possibility from happening. He would rather help Eighth Brother so that
he himself could Father a child first, then he would not be bothered to care about what was going on with him.
Actually, he would not even ask him to take the two maids, but he did understand that the King was using the two maids to watch over the Eighth Brother, and that was something his father had to do.
Despite the displeasure, the King still listened to Zhou Huailing’s advice.
It was very reasonable advice, which he could approve of, but he just did not feel very comfortable about this.
All the ministers and civilians would accept whatever he granted them with gratitude and glee, but Zhou Huaijin turned him down!
Lord Huai’s Mansion was able to afford those maids after all. He gave him the best mansion!
The King got quite angry, but as he thought of the Queen who was still seriously ill, he calmed down.
“Okay, just do as he says, you can bring the two maids back to Lord Huai’s Mansion, and that is something you can’t turn down. You have to accept them.” The King was still very displeased. He was acting really tough as if only in this way would he be able to regain his own dignity.
Zhou Huailing threw a look at Zhou Huaijin. He patted his shoulders. “Father is being kind, take them, Eighth Brother, and don’t turn him down. You are a rare, pure-hearted man, and Miss. Gu is a lucky woman.”
Zhou Huaijin still hesitated. He did not like to be served by maids, so his servants were all pageboys, not maids.
Those maids granted by father were different from ordinary maids, after all. They might not be granted the title of concubines, but since they were given by the King, they were more or less the same as concubines. He was worried
