Time soon came 7 years later, Zhang Chun's son was already 13 years old, and the daughter of Gu Jingteng, Duke of Shu, was 16 years old.
According to the marriage contract between the two parties, Zhang Chun's son began to discuss the wedding when he was fifteen years old and crowned.
However, at this time, Gu Jingteng's daughter did not want to get married. The reason was... Zhang Chun's son had intellectual problems.
Yes, Zhang Chun’s son does have some intellectual problems. He’s not simply dementia, but has an IQ that’s just stuck near the passing line. It’s not true that you say he’s completely crazy, but he’s definitely not smart either.
He is obviously not a normal person.
The daughter opposite is the legitimate daughter of the Duke, and of course her vision is very high. How could she accept this husband as a demented man?
But this matter is really difficult to solve. After all, the marriage is no longer a matter between two families. Everyone in the capital knows that the two families are married, especially Gu Jingteng. What is the relationship between his two families? Do you dislike each other?
Is it okay to break off the engagement if my son is a dementia?
Gu Jingteng definitely wanted to lose face. For him, face was more important than his daughter, so even though he knew that he was sorry for his daughter, he did not agree to break off the engagement.
Unexpectedly, Gu Jingteng refused, and his daughter began to think of a way. Since it was difficult for her to propose breaking off the engagement, she let Zhang Chun do so.
So the daughter directly made an appointment with Zhang Chun's son in private, on the grounds of a spring outing. What she originally wanted was to find a few people to teach the demented boy a lesson, so that he would ask his father to break off the engagement when he went back.
However, various accidents occurred frequently, and the final result was that Zhang Chun's son fell directly into the lake. Although he was rescued immediately by servants, after four days of rescue, the son still could not be rescued and he was dead.
Then something big has happened now. Even if Gu Jingteng here directly sends his daughter to the temple overnight to become a nun, the matter is still not over.
Zhang Chun was really mad and forced Gu Jingteng to let her daughter die. Although Gu Jingteng was indeed in the wrong in this matter, he did apologize humbly at first, but as Zhang Chun became more and more excessive, he even
He was also angry when his daughter sacrificed her life for her life.
In his opinion, it is not that he cannot accompany his daughter if she is destined to die, but he cannot lose his face. If he agrees that his daughter will die, how will he, the Duke of Shu, see anyone in the future?
So it was obvious that the two families were completely at odds with each other. They were arguing every day and even fought several times. In the end, the dispute naturally came to the side of Emperor Li Qing.
Emperor Li Qing's final decision was to give both sides 50 blows each, punish them all, and then send them back to the border respectively.
However, what the two families didn't know was that although Emperor Li Qing seemed to have a headache, he was laughing inside. Because this whole thing was planned by Li Qing himself.
Yes, the engagement between Zhang Chun and Gu Jingteng was not a secret in itself. Emperor Li Qing didn't pay attention to it at first, but after both parties were promoted respectively, he suddenly noticed it.
Li Qing's suspicion arose instantly. You must know that these two families are both generals. Zhang Chun and Gu Jingteng are both feudal officials and generals with military power. If they are married, do you think he can still sleep?
?
Of course, he couldn't just ask the two to cancel their marriage. Wasn't this clearly telling them that he was suspicious of them? Although he was indeed a small-minded person, he didn't want others to know that he was such a person.
Then the insidious plan came.
For some reason, several people suddenly appeared around Gu Jingteng's daughter, whispering in her ears every day about how stupid her fiancé was and why he was so embarrassed. Gu Jingteng's daughter had also heard about her fiancé and knew that he was a bit crazy.
Stupid, but I didn't expect the reputation to be so bad. Of course, I disliked this person even more.
It didn't take long for someone to start instigating her to break off the engagement. Naturally, the marriage couldn't be broken off, so someone else gave her some advice, saying that the other party was a fool, and if she tried to scare her, she would be frightened, and then she would break off the engagement.
The daughter believed it, so she personally invited the person out. As a result, the person fell into the water without knowing what happened during the party. Some passers-by even said they saw it was Gu Jingteng's daughter who pushed him down.
Gu Jingteng's daughter wanted to explain, but the problem was that she really couldn't explain it clearly. She herself felt that there was something wrong with her. Although she was not the one who recommended the appointment, she did make the appointment herself, and she really wanted to teach the other person a lesson.
There was no monitoring at all. Who knows what happened. Anyway, the result was that Zhang Chun’s son died.
Emperor Li Qing was very happy, and the plan was very successful. No one on either side noticed his actions, and he even had the pleasure of toying with people while applauding.
Li Qing did not expect that the bullet he shot three years ago would eventually hit his own chest.
When Gu Jingteng, Duke of Shu State, brought his troops to the meeting place, Li Jinglong, as the coach, held a welcome banquet for him. As a result, something big happened at the banquet, because Zhang Chun, who also came to gather, also attended the banquet.
During the three years since the two families had fallen out, because they were stationed at nearby border gates and had almost no chance of meeting each other, there was no major conflict. However, the two families had completely fallen out, and troubles broke out from time to time.
However, Emperor Li Qing was still complacent, admiring his "masterpiece" and acquiescing to the quarrel between the two families.
This gathering of troops was the first time that Gu Jingteng and Zhang Chun met after three years. Three years later, the hatred between the two sides has not diminished at all, and has even become more intense.
This led to Zhang Chun overturning the table during the banquet and smashing the food all over Gu Jingteng. Gu Jingteng also had a bad temper and fought with Zhang Chun on the spot.
Fortunately, neither of them had weapons. The two of them were wounded all over their bodies and there was blood.
Originally, this matter should obviously be stopped by the coach Li Jinglong, but in the end, Li Jinglong was a bit lacking in both ability and prestige and failed to stop these two.
Finally, after Gu Jingteng here left the words "Old man, you are waiting.", the two parties dispersed. Obviously, this matter is not that simple to end.
No one expected that things would develop to a point they could not imagine. Because that night, not long after Zhang Chun returned to his temporary camp cursing, an army appeared in his camp.
nearby.
Of course, this army was not Gu Jingteng's army, but the cavalry led by Linton who had just arrived nearby.
"Let's start from this house." Linton pointed to the military camp at the bottom of the mountain and said, "Let's start the night attack!"
