Speaking of this matter, Murong Yao was very angry.
He once proposed the marriage of his children to Zhongyong Hou Gao Peng in private. Gao Peng did not agree at all. In fact, it was just a pretense.
As long as the Murong family officially came to propose marriage, Gao Peng had no reason to refuse.
Murong Shen, a disciple of the generals of the Jin Dynasty, is the brightest. With such a quick son-in-law, what else can Gao Peng find fault with?
If the Murong family and the Gao family join forces, they can overpower the arrogant old man Feng Chuan.
Unexpectedly, Murong Shen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly went privately to the home of Zhao Yuanren, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, to propose marriage to the Zhao family.
When Murong Yao found out, he was so angry that he used a stick to do some tricks on his family.
Murong Shen did not dodge or admit his mistake, and received twenty sticks without moving. Then he opened his mouth and said: "There is no formal marriage proposal in the Gao family, so oral marriage does not count. I want to marry Miss Zhao Liu."
It is a good thing to have an outstanding son. But it is also a headache if the son is too stubborn and independent.
Murong Yao lost his temper and had to hold his nose to clean up the mess for his son. He apologized to Gao Peng in private.
Gao Peng, that vulgar warrior, had a nose that was not a nose and eyes that were not eyes, and he had a strange aura, and he swallowed it.
The most irritating thing is that the Zhao family does not know how to show appreciation, and Zhao Yuanming, a sour scholar, actually wrote a letter rejecting the marriage.
The Murong family will be completely embarrassed.
"The Zhao family rejected the marriage, so why did you go to Beihai County? If they don't like it, do you still want to marry me by force?"
Murong Shen didn't seem to hear his father's cynicism and responded: "I will go in person to show my sincerity."
"Sincerity is nothing!" Murong Yao slammed the table hard and made a muffled sound: "I have already made it very clear in the letter. Miss Zhao Liu and the childhood sweethearts of the Prince of Beihai have a verbal engagement for a long time. You go,
It’s also a waste of time to give your face to others for trampling on you.”
Murong Shen said: "Oral engagement does not count."
Murong Yao: "..."
Murong Yao slapped the table again angrily: "I'm surprised. You've never met Miss Zhao Liu, so why are you thinking of marrying her, and you look so disgusting that you'll only marry her if you don't want to marry her?"
The father and son had privately quarreled several times over this matter.
Murong Shen remained silent as usual.
Murong Yao slapped the table and scolded him, but there was nothing he could do about his stubborn son.
It's a done deal, going to Beihai County is a foregone conclusion.
Murong Yao swallowed his anger and said in a deep voice: "I don't care about other things. After you receive the errand, you must fight a beautiful and victorious battle. When it comes to suppressing bandits, you must be the leader. Just Li Ji, I don't dare to fight with him
You argue. I will write a letter and you take it with you. When you meet Li Ji, give him the letter."
Murong Shen responded: "Yes, thank you father."
Murong Yao felt his head hurt again when he saw his son's character of refusing to eat food or drink, so he waved his hand to ask him to leave.
After Murong Shen left, Murong Yao let out a long sigh.
All sons are evil stars in their lives.
Murong Shen has been outstanding in everything since he was a child, and he has been extra worried. When the following few unsatisfactory concubines were compared with the eldest son, they immediately became a mess.
He has always been proud of his eldest son.
I never thought that the worry-free eldest son had an inexplicable high fever a month ago. After the high fever subsided, he felt a little strange.
It couldn't be that he was dreaming about Miss Zhao Liu!
Murong Yao shook this ridiculous idea out of his mind and quickly wrote a letter.
…
In the evening, after Murong Shen left the palace, he rode his horse to the Imperial Guard barracks.
The commanders of the three imperial guard battalions had received the military order and came immediately to pay their respects.
Murong Shen's official position was actually not very high. The commander of the Imperial Guard Battalion in front of him was also a fifth-grade military general and was on the same level as Murong Shen.
However, everyone knew that Murong Shen would be the next general of the Imperial Guard, and the three commanders of the Imperial Guard battalion were respectful and sincerely convinced of Murong Shen.
Murong Shen summoned a dozen more low-level generals to discuss the march in the military tent until late at night.
After the generals left, Murong Shen fell asleep in the military tent.
He slept with his clothes on, his eyes closed, but he still didn't fall asleep.
His chest was rising and falling, showing his excitement.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, complex and strong emotions flashed through his eyes, and he shouted softly: "Xi Yan, just wait, I will come to see you soon."
…
Zhao Xiyan suddenly opened her eyes and covered her chest with her hands.
My heart was beating loudly, as if I had stepped on the air and fallen into an endless cliff.
Hosta turned over on the pedals in a daze: "Miss..."
"I'm fine, you can go to sleep!" Zhao Xiyan's voice was particularly soft in the dark night.
Yuhan hummed and quickly fell asleep.
Zhao Xiyan closed her eyes, but did not fall asleep.
Fortunately, there are many free days. I felt a little groggy when I woke up in the morning, but after an hour's nap in the afternoon, I felt refreshed.
"Miss, the Crown Prince has sent someone." Yuhan said softly.
Zhao Xiyan nodded slightly.
The person who came to deliver the letter was Xu Shiyi, who had a simple and honest face.
"Sixth Miss, the prince is seriously ill and cannot afford to leave. The prince has to take care of his illness and is unable to leave the house. The prince is thinking about the girl and specially asked the younger one to come here."
"I don't have anything else to do. I just want to see if the girl looks good and is in a good mood. If there is anything you want to eat or play, just give me an order and I will buy it right away."
"If the girl is happy, our prince will be happy. If the prince is happy, the lives of the younger ones will be easier."
Among the three soldiers in charge, Xu San was the best in terms of skill, and Xu Erwu was the quickest in terms of handling tasks. The one who liked Xu Jing the most was Xu Shiyi.
No wonder.
Zhao Xiyan laughed dumbly: "Go and reply and say everything is fine with me. Your Majesty, please feel free to take care of me and don't worry about it."
Xu Shiyi smiled naively: "Youngster, if you go back like this, there is no way you can explain it to the prince."
"Girl, write a short sentence, or grab a small gadget for the little one to take home!"
Zhao Xiyan was amused again and asked Yuhan to get the copybook she usually wrote: "Your Majesty, you can practice calligraphy according to this when you are free."
Xu Shiyi smiled and accepted the copybook: "This is great. The girl's calligraphy is better than her own, and she has become a master of her own. If the prince practices her calligraphy according to her, she will definitely make great progress."
Xu Shiyi came for a visit and received a copybook and Miss Zhao Liu's charming smile.
After returning, he received generous rewards from his master and countless looks from his colleagues.
…
The days flew by, and several more days passed by.
A carriage entered the city gate surrounded by soldiers.
Zheng Xuanqing, who had been waiting at the city gate for half a day, rushed onto the carriage in one stride.
The carriage is covered with thick bedding.
The pale-faced Zheng Xuanfeng was lying on the quilt, and his right leg was empty from the knee down. That night, his right leg was chopped by a gangster, and the knife was poisonous. In order to save his life, he had to amputate his right leg.
These days, Zheng Xuanfeng had recurring fevers and was so tortured that he could barely breathe.
Zheng Xuanqing shouted "big brother" and choked up, bursting into tears for a while.
The pair of boys and girls who came together were silent.
