Seeing that it was Li Jinglong and Xie Yufei talking, Xia Xun quickly got off his horse and walked over. [] Li Jinglong was wearing ordinary clothes, and several guards around him were also wearing ordinary clothes. They looked like bodyguards of a wealthy family, but they were alert and cautious.
Uncomparable to ordinary people, Xia Xun already attracted their attention as soon as he got close. However, they saw that Xia Xun was wearing a flying fish suit and his rank was that of a general flag officer, so they did not scold him, but only affirmed his identity as their master.
, said in a low voice: "In front of you is Cao Guogong, there is no need to avoid it!"
Xia Xun smiled slightly and said: "My Majesty, Yang Xu, the flag officer of Jinyiwei, has been ordered to accompany Cao Guogong to Hangzhou. I am about to pay homage to the Duke."
After hearing this, several guards looked at him suspiciously. Xia Xun showed his waistband, and then several guards stepped out of the way to let him pass.
Li Jinglong was talking to Xie Yufei, and his face looked a little unhappy.
When Xia Xun got closer, he discovered that there was a woman standing next to Xie Yufei. Although she was already over ten years old, her skin was as white as jade, her nose was as greasy, her charm and appearance were extraordinary, and Xie Yufei had accompanied her adoptive mother, Mrs. Xizhu, to the Yangtze River.
Xia Xun had seen her when they were in the valley, and recognized her as Mrs. Xizhu. However, Mrs. Xizhu, like her daughter, had a petite figure, and had just been blocked by a few big men, so Xia Xun had never seen her.
Xia Xun walked closer and heard Li Jinglong say very displeasedly: "Miss Xie, I, Li Jiujiang, am the first-ranking official in the dynasty and the hereditary Duke of the country. Am I not worthy of you with my status? You are a descendant of the Xie family in Chen County."
It's not just right, one is equal and two are equal, it is called three wives. I, Li Jiujiang, now only have one married wife. Since you are a descendant of the Xie family, I naturally cannot treat you as a concubine, so I will accept you as an equal wife, as the father of our country.
My identity is not an insult to you, right? Why does the girl refuse so many times?"
Xie Yufei seemed to have lost her patience due to his entanglement, and said with a straight face: "To be honest, the little girl already has a fiancée. As the saying goes, a good horse does not deserve two saddles, and a good girl does not marry two husbands. Although the Duke of Guo has a good figure,
She is beautiful and has a high status. However, the little girl is not blessed enough to remarry to another husband. I believe that the Duke of the country will not look down on such a daughter's family. The little girl really does not dare to accept the kindness of the Duke of the country. "
Li Jinglong said with a long face: "You wear your hair in a three-part bun, so you are clearly unmarried. If it is true that you are married, I, Li Jiujiang, will not bother you. But just now your adoptive mother walked with you and taught you words. Listen to her words."
It's clear that you haven't promised anyone yet, but are you trying to trick me with your clever words?"
It turned out that Mrs. Xizhu and Xie Yufei had just returned to Jinling today. Although Mrs. Xizhu recognized the son-in-law, her daughter was married to a foreign country and could not see each other often. She was ultimately unhappy. She also knew that her goddaughter had been dissolved from the Yang family.
It was about the engagement, so I just walked all the way, teaching her all the way, asking her not to imitate her own daughter in making her own decisions when choosing someone to marry in the future, which would make her elders sad. She didn't want these words to be heard by Li Jinglong who came out of a shop.
Li Jinglong has been thinking about Xie Yufei since the last time he said goodbye. The playboy felt that he was lovesick. In fact, the reason was simple. Xie Yufei was already outstanding in appearance and charming, and it was not easy for men to forget. She teased her again.
Li Jinglong made him make a big fool of himself in public. How could Li Jinglong forget such a scene? Because he thought about it often, he thought that he could not let go of this girl Xie. Now that he had just responded to the sky, he had an unexpected encounter with her.
Encounter, what is this if not God's will?
So Li Jinglong immediately stopped her and expressed his love on the spot. At first, both sides were reserved in their words, but Xie Yufei remained unmoved. Li Jinglong gradually became angry, and the two of them froze here.
Xie Yufei put on a pretty face and said: "The little girl has indeed promised someone. This life-long event is not something to be laughed at. Lord, please respect yourself."
Li Jinglong said angrily: "Okay! Jiujiang is presumptuous. I would like to write a proposal. If the girl has already promised someone, Li Jinglong will turn around and leave without saying anything. If the girl has not promised someone..."
Xie Yufei's family only had a divorce letter, and there was no marriage letter. When she heard this, she couldn't help but hesitate and looked at her adoptive mother. She and her apprentice were of the same mind. Mrs. Xizhu immediately understood what she meant. She wanted to go first. Leave and help my precious disciple make a fake marriage certificate.
"Alas! A daughter or a goddaughter can't worry about anything." Mrs. Xizhu sighed secretly and was about to leave with an excuse.
Xia Xun saw Li Jinglong's aggressive approach, and Xie Yufei couldn't resist, and suddenly became anxious. After the incident in Qingzhou, he and Xie Yufei were already in love with each other. It was just a layer of window paper that had not yet been made clear. When she comes back this time, Xia Xun wanted to settle the marriage first. Who would have thought that there would be complications? Someone would always remember this beautiful flower. It would be impossible if he didn't do it early. He coughed quickly and said: "Yang Xu, the humble official of the Imperial Guard, has seen the country." Lord."
Li Jinglong, Xie Yufei and Mrs. Xizhu all looked to the side and saw Xia Xun clasping his fists and saying, "Master Guo, Miss Xie is just my unmarried wife. I don't know if I can be this witness because of my humble position?"
Li Jinglong was startled and lost his voice: "She is your unmarried wife? Isn't it right? Where is that Miss Peng? Did you divorce her?"
Xia Xun coughed, pointed at his nose and said: "Equal wives, equal wives, Lord Duke of the State, the Duke of the State can equalize his wives, but can't he who is in a humble position not?"
Xie Yufei showed a look of surprise when she saw Xia Xun. When she heard what he said, she didn't know if she was really shy or fake. In short, a good girl should be more reserved, so she leaned closer to Mrs. Xizhu and whispered shyly. He bowed his head and said nothing.
Li Jinglong, Xie Yufei and Xia Xun, thinking about what Mrs. Xizhu had just taught Xie Yufei, they couldn't help but become suspicious and said, "Okay, bring me the marriage certificate!"
Xia Xun said: "Bi Zhi and Miss Xie are in love and have already discussed marriage, but the marriage contract has not been signed yet."
Li Jinglong suddenly changed his expression: "So you are just perfunctory with me?"
Xia Xun said sternly: "I dare not do this because of my humble position. If you don't believe me, you can ask Miss Xie whether she and I are in love and whether we have discussed marriage."
Xia Xun is just a seventh-rank general. In front of the first-rank hereditary Duke Li Jinglong, such an official is nothing, but he dares to show that she is his woman in public without any scruples, and does not care about his own future. , he is a man, and all men put their achievements first, but in his heart, he is a hundred times more important than his future.
Thinking of this, Xie Yufei's heart surged, and she was so happy that her chest was about to explode. She felt that all the pain she had suffered for him over the years was worth it. For a woman to have such an upright man and her family to entrust her with her for the rest of her life, how could she still be so happy? What's there to be dissatisfied about? She glanced at Xia Xun with tears in her eyes, and nodded gently but firmly.
Seeing the two completely different attitudes of this enchanting beauty towards Xia Xun and towards himself, Li Jinglong was so jealous that he could no longer care about his bullshit demeanor. He sneered and said: "What does it mean to be in love? A woman gets married. , you must get the orders of your parents, the words of the matchmaker, and the three matchmakers and six certificates before you can make it accurate!"
Xia Xun raised his eyebrows and said, "What's so difficult about this? I'll be engaged to Miss Xie right away and get the marriage certificate signed!"
Li Jinglong, Xie Yufei, and Mrs. Xizhu were all stunned. How could they get engaged on this street?
Xia Xun stood proudly and said loudly: "If you have feelings in your heart, why do you need Yue Lao to be the matchmaker? If you have a sincere thought, heaven and earth can prove it! Yang, please ask heaven to be the matchmaker!"
Xie Yufei looked at him longingly, unable to restrain her joy and excitement. She couldn't help but take a step forward and said in a low voice but firmly: "The little girl will ask the ground to be your matchmaker!"
Li Jinglong saw the two of them singing harmoniously, and his face turned green and red, but he still managed to sneer and said: "Men have the sky as their matchmaker, women have the land as their matchmaker, and there is still one matchmaker missing from the three matchmakers. Where is this matchmaker?" "
Xia Xun looked around, strode away, and when he reached a roadside stall, he picked up an old man squatting there selling firecrackers. Xia Xun often passed by this road when commuting to work. I bought firecrackers from this stall and became familiar with this old man. His name was Yang Mei. He was originally a master in the Gunpowder Bureau. Later, when he got older, his son took over his job and went home to tinker with some firecrackers. Let's do some small business. The old man's ears are not very good, so he talks loudly at the throat, and most of the time he talks like a duck. He doesn't know what to say.
I don’t know what Xia Xun said to him. The old man was smiling and nodding. Xia Xun pulled him over and said with a smile: "Master Guo, look, these three matchmakers are already here." Already."
After saying that, Xia Xun turned around and left. In a moment, he collected a bunch of things from the market, a bucket, a ruler, a steelyard, a pair of scissors, a mirror, and an abacus. These are the six certificates, the six The certificates were all in place. Immediately afterwards, there was another stall selling calligraphy on the roadside. After Xia Xun gave a few words, he spread out the red paper and started writing the marriage letter.
This calligrapher doesn't know Li Jinglong. If he knew that the guy standing on the street with his face turned blue with anger was a prince, he might be frightened and fainted, but he only knew that Li Jinglong was a rich young man. , and Xia Xun... He is wearing a flying fish robe and has a spring knife embroidered under his ribs. Who can offend this chief bannerman?
The marriage is written and the six certificates are complete.
Uncle Yang, who looked like he was smiling and could only nod his head no matter what you said, stood in front of him. She died, and her own marriage is the decision of her own family. Miss Xie's parents have also died early, so she is completely taken care of by her adoptive mother. Her adoptive mother has shown kindness to Miss Xie and reborn her. This important matter of marriage should be decided by her adoptive mother."
He left and right, strode forward, stretched out his hand and grabbed a wild goose from the stall of a man selling delicacies and wild game. The salesman stared longingly and did not dare to say a word. Although Jin Yiwei is a tiger without teeth, he is a small child. The common people are still afraid. If it is a Jin Yiwei who is not mentally normal, then they... are even more afraid. They only dare to surround him from a distance and do not dare to come close.
Xia Xun picked up the wild goose, walked to Mrs. Xizhu's side, bowed and said: "The Xie family has a beautiful daughter, whom Yang Xu has admired for a long time. He is willing to marry her and grow old together. I also ask my adoptive mother to agree."
Mrs. Xizhu Xie Yufei was so moved by this romantic scene that she just wiped her tears and couldn't speak. Mrs. Xizhu sighed and said with emotion: "Alas! My useless son-in-law, if I had half the courage of you,
, I won’t be able to punish him anymore.” After saying that, he took the goose.
Li Jinglong's eyes were filled with lust and he gritted his teeth: "Okay! Hello! Yang Xu, Yang Xu, you're very good. Let's ride on the donkey and sing the book. We'll see!"
He flicked his sleeves and turned around to leave. With tears of happiness in her eyes, Xie Yufei walked up to Xia Xun, held up his sleeves, and said with a smile: "We don't have to be afraid of him, ha, you don't want to be either.
It’s under his control.”
The corners of Xia Xun's mouth twitched quickly and he said, "Well, yes..."
