The huge caravan walked slowly on the official road, attracting the side glances of passers-by and small caravans.
From Luoyang to Ganzhou, the entire journey is divided into several sections.
The first section of the road is from Chang'an to Luoyang. This section of the road is the best to walk, and it can be used as a break-in for caravans.
After arriving in Chang'an, the caravan will carry out a large-scale supply operation and then head west to Lanzhou.
Although this section of the road is a bit deserted, it is still easy to walk, but there are just a few more bandits.
Going north from Lanzhou to Wuwei is a bit more difficult. The desert, wind and sand, and the cold and summer heat along the way are just embellishments. The biggest difficulty lies in the people.
This was a war-torn place. The imperial court and the Nomadic Ministry fought back and forth for several months, destroying everything that could be broken.
However, this is not the hardest part.
No one knows what the road from Wuwei to Ganzhou is like. The road from Wuwei to the west and north has been cut off.
Most of the nomadic tribesmen who fled to Luoyang fled from this area.
After the caravan set out on the road, Ji Wushuang seemed to let herself go a little bit. Maybe she was too lazy to pretend, so she simply stopped being a "father" and pestered Huang Xiaoshi all day long.
In the eyes of others, this Hu girl is enthusiastic and proactive, and Huang Xiaoshi seems to be able to get her with just a move of his fingers. But for some reason, Huang Xiaoshi seems to be trying his best to restrain himself in the face of such an eager Hu girl.
What does it mean to exercise restraint?
Not taking the initiative is called exertion, and not being together is called restraint.
"What do you know?" A disciple said to the other disciples who couldn't understand, "I'm just asking you.
This Hu girl is comfortable (beautiful), but can she be married and become a mother-in-law?"
After hearing this, some of the younger students nodded blankly, while others thought for a moment and then shook their heads.
As expected, the junior who nodded received a hammer on the head, and the disciple taught him a lesson: "Do you know that there is a difference between Hu and Han?
This Hu girl is only suitable to be bought back as a concubine, but not a mother-in-law. Otherwise, if she gives birth to a baby two days later and is mixed with the blood of the Hu people, she will not be able to enter the ancestral hall of her ancestors."
When everyone heard it, it seemed to be the truth.
Although in recent years, many wealthy businessmen have bought Hu girls and have given birth to many children, there is no way for these children to be included in the family tree.
Finding a Hu girl as a concubine and marrying a Hu girl as a mother-in-law are completely different things.
The mother-in-law's baby will be the head of the family in the future.
All I have to do is pay a sum of money for the baby my concubine gave birth to.
If we really want to talk about it, Hu women are not as good as women from brothels.
"Think about it," the older disciple said to the other disciples, "Master Shi still doesn't have a mother-in-law. If he takes in this Hu girl, and the first baby is born the next day, it will be a Hu baby.
What to do?
If these eldest children are not the same child, the family will be in chaos."
"Oh, that's right." Everyone suddenly realized.
Whether to pass it on to the elder or to the direct descendant, no matter how it is done, is controversial.
Therefore, having an eldest son is a good way to reduce unnecessary disputes.
At this time, a clever guy suddenly said: "If Master Shi doesn't find a wife as soon as possible, and then he can take them both in at once, wouldn't it be miserable for An Yi?"
Before the clever guy finished shaking off his cleverness, he also got a hammer on his head.
"You know a hammer." The older disciple said to him: "With Master Shi's status, how can the mother-in-law look around?
Let me ask you, apart from the princes, generals and ministers, have you ever heard of someone like Mr. Shi who is less than twenty years old and can build such a large industry in just a few years?
People didn't know it before, but now that Mr. Shi has come back at the beginning of the new year, everyone knows that he is not married yet.
That's okay.
You see, the threshold of our Shennong Baicao Gate is about to be breached.
I don’t know that there are many wealthy families who want to betroth their daughters to Master Shi. If such a young man can bring this kind of uncle into the family, the family may become prosperous.
Do you think, at this time, should Mr. Shi just find a random woman to be his mother-in-law for the sake of a Hu girl?"
You really shouldn’t.
After hearing this, everyone understood everything.
Oh, what a pity.
Such a beautiful woman is in front of my eyes, but I can't eat it.
Then again, with Master Shi's methods, having a group of beautiful concubines will not be a matter of waving his hand in the future.
Why is the gap between people so big?
…
Fortunately, Ji Wushuang didn't hear what these people were saying, otherwise Ji Wushuang might have gone on a rampage and killed someone.
Why do you say that I can't be a legal wife? I just want to outshine others and sit on this dragon throne.
Ji Wushuang knew where her disadvantage was, but it wasn't a big problem. She didn't want to dominate Huang Xiaoshi forever.
As long as Huang Xiaoshi obeys him and lives happily with him for a few years, Ji Wushuang can help him find any beauty Huang Xiaoshi likes.
In the past few days, Huang Xiaoshi had been somewhat resistant to his own temptations, which further aroused Ji Wushuang's desire to conquer.
If this man were like a dog, sticking out his tongue and jumping on me, there would be no fun at all.
Ji Wushuang could clearly sense that Huang Xiaoshi treated her differently than before. He had a good impression of her and was even attracted to her.
This long journey to the west is still so long. I don’t believe that I won’t be able to capture him even if I try my best.
There is a saying: Men conquer women by conquering the world, and women conquer the world by conquering men.
Ji Wushuang doesn't want to conquer the world, she just wants to conquer Huang Xiaoshi, the man she likes.
"Sister, I love you more and more."
…
March 15th, the sky is clear and clear.
On this day, the city of Luoyang was busier than usual during the Chinese New Year. The streets were full of people. The closer you got to the central square of Luoyang, the more crowded it became.
In front of the huge shrimp statue in the central square of the city, a stage covered with red cloth has been set up. This will be the stage for the beauty contest tonight.
At the gate of Luoyang City, the four people from Xiaoyaogu looked at the dense crowds of people in the city, feeling quite hopeful and sighing.
"Tch. Why do you have to drag us together in this conference?" Jingjia complained to Gu Yuexuan with a face full of dissatisfaction.
"Second senior brother, the senior brother wants to accompany his junior sister to Luoyang City for fun today, and I didn't insist on calling you." Weiming smiled evilly at the thorns and said, "You want to stay alone in the valley to chop wood people, so why not?"
No one is stopping you."
Jingjiang glanced sideways at Wei Ming, and the murderous aura in him boiled.
"Senior Brother, hurry up. There are a lot of people here." Wang Rong pulled Gu Yuexuan and walked excitedly towards Luoyang City.
Today's beauty pageant is after dark, and it's still very early. But the street is so lively, and Wang Rong has a lot of things she wants to buy.
Originally, Xiaoyao Valley had always been very strict with its disciples, but after the Spring Festival this year, Wu Xiazi suddenly relaxed its control over its disciples, not only canceling the curfew, but also canceling the ban on going out.
Gu Yuexuan is twenty-one this year and has reached the age of marriage. It is time to relax.
Besides, Rong'er also came to live in the valley, and her control was too tight, which affected young people's romance.
Wang Rong has been in Xiaoyao Valley for more than a month, and Wuxiazi also discovered that Wang Rong and Gu Yuexuan seem to have the closest relationship.
This is easy to understand. After all, Gu Yuexuan's personality and temper are the best among the three children. Besides, it is normal for the junior sister to admire her senior brother.
Wu Xiazi could also see that Jingjia was interested in Ronger.
That's good, that's good.
I'll wait and see when this year, I will meet with the head of the Huashan Sect, Cao, and decide on the marriage of Xuan'er and Hua'er, and then the matter of Ji'er and Rong'er will be a matter of course.
As for Weiming'er, Doctor Shen's baby daughter Xiangyun seems to be very interested in him, but unfortunately this brat is a bastard and can't get the hang of it.
Today is the 15th day. Ronger asked Wuxiazi for leave and said that she would go to Luoyang City to help her best friend Shen Xiangyun vote. Wuxiazi immediately agreed upon hearing this.
It's better for young people to get along with each other on such a full moon night.
Ronger hooked up with Xiangyun, so it was not an unknown matter and could be solved together.
"Brother, senior brother, hurry up." Wang Rong, who was wearing bright yellow clothes, led Gu Yuexuan in the crowd. There were too many people. In order to prevent being washed away, Wang Rong couldn't help but hold on to Gu Yuexuan tightly. hand.
"Little junior sister, wait for me..." Before Wei Ming could finish shouting, he was already hit by a bullet on his head.
Jingjie looked at Weiming with a stinky face and said, "Where do you want to go, Junior Sister? It's your turn to shout?"
Weiming held his head and backed away.
I don’t know why, if I get a little closer to my junior sister, my second senior brother will get angry at me.
We don’t have that interest in our junior sister.
Everyone can see that the junior sister likes the senior brother, and the senior brother also has some feelings for the junior sister.
Oh, could it be that the second senior brother is jealous, so he is angry at me?
Wei Ming looked at the thorns maliciously, then looked at him from top to bottom, and couldn't help but shake his head.
Although the second senior brother is not bad, he is far behind compared to the first senior brother.
When Jingjiang saw Weiming shaking his head at him, he immediately became angry.
"You brat, what do you mean by shaking your head at me?" Jingji shouted loudly at Weiming.
"It's boring, it's boring." Wei Ming shouted while squeezing forward.
When Weiming was about to catch up with Gu Yuexuan and Wang Rong, he heard someone shouting loudly: "Senior Brother Gu, Senior Brother Gu Yuexuan! Wait a minute!"
This is a woman's voice.
Gu Yue
"Senior Brother Gu Yuexuan, you are polite." Perhaps because she had put in a lot of effort, the woman in green looked flushed, and she said happily to Gu Yuexuan: "My daughter is Cao Ehua from the Huashan Sect."
Before Gu Yuexuan could reply, Cao Ehua's eyes fell on the hand held by Wang Rong. She looked up in shock and saw a gentle smile on Gu Yuexuan's face.
A sharp knife pierced Cao Ehua's heart. Her heart hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.
Cao Ehua has known Gu Yuexuan for a long time.
In the last Youth Heroes Association, Xiaoyao Valley sent Gu Yuexuan to compete and won the first place. Cao Ehua was still very young at that time, and just when her love was budding, she saw Gu Yuexuan's heroic appearance and could never forget it.
Cao Dai, the head of the Huashan Sect, was very concerned about his daughter's marriage.
Last year, I saw that my daughter was already sixteen, and it was time to find a husband.
In February, Cao Dai was invited to attend Jiang Tianxiong's birthday banquet. All sects and sects from all over the world gathered in Luoyang, and many of them brought their proud disciples to show their faces.
Cao Ehua also wants to go.
Although there are many free-spirited people in the world, women are absolutely not allowed to attend birthday celebrations, especially birthday banquets at other people's homes.
So when Yasha went to pay Jiang Tianxiong a birthday, he was causing trouble.
Cao Ehua pulled his father to beg him for a while, saying that since there were so many talented people in the world, he should go and have a look, and maybe he would find his right husband.
Firstly, what his daughter said was reasonable, and secondly, because she couldn't stand Cao Ehua's entreaties, Cao Dai finally agreed and agreed with Cao Ehua to follow her to attend Jiang Tianxiong's birthday party, but she had to disguise herself as a man and couldn't let others do it.
Discovered his daughter's body.
Cao Ehua indeed went to find Mr. Ruyi because she knew that Xiaoyaogu would definitely attend Jiang Tianxiong's birthday party.
After five years of separation, Cao Ehua finally met the one he loved by taking advantage of the birthday banquet.
When Yaksha held a birthday party, Gu Yuexuan flew over Cao Ehua's head and landed gracefully on the ground.
Cao Ehua looked at Gu Yuexuan's valiant and heroic appearance, and his heart almost jumped out of joy.
Before returning home after the birthday party, Cao Ehua told his father very seriously that he would not marry anyone other than Gu Yuexuan in this life.
It happened that Cao Dai was also very satisfied with Gu Yuexuan, so he wrote a letter to Wu Xiazi explaining the marriage of his son and daughter.
Fast forward to this year, Cao Ehua has turned seventeen. Cao Dai told his daughter that Wu Xiazi had already agreed to her marriage to Gu Yuexuan, but it was just to see when they would officially meet and start the process.
Cao Ehua already regarded Gu Yuexuan as his fiancée in his heart.
Today, Cao Ehua came to Luoyang City with the disciples sent by Huashan to deliver invitations to the Young Heroes Association to Jiang Mansion. Who knew there were so many people in Luoyang City today.
Cao Ehua, who was eager to go to Xiaoyao Valley, left his fellow disciples behind and squeezed into the huge crowd to get out of the city. It was a coincidence that he bumped into Gu Yuexuan just after walking a few steps.
Cao Ehua's heart was still bleeding when he saw his fiancé's sweetheart leading another woman with tenderness and smile on his face.
Just as Cao Ehuahun was flying into the sky, Jingjie and Weiming caught up.
Suddenly, Cao Ehua seemed to have come back to her senses. She stretched out her hand to pull Jingjia, and said with a smile to Jingjia: "Senior Brother Jingjia, Luoyang City is so lively today, come and take me to play."
Before Jingjia could nod, Cao Ehua pulled Jingjia away quickly, leaving Dongfang Weiming alone and confused.
What on earth is going on? The brothers and sisters are all in pairs, leaving me alone.
…
Although the two old foxes Wang Hu and Cao Dai only gave birth to one daughter, they were quick-thinking and thick-skinned, so they directly released their daughters to go to Xiaoyao Valley to find a mate.
Coincidentally, Wu Xiazi also believed that these two marriages were a blessing from heaven and a great good thing for his disciples.
Wang Hu and Cao Dai felt relieved and left this matter to Wu Xia Zi. Although Wu Xia Zi had been single until the age of eighty, these two old men felt that no matter what choice they made in this kind of thing, they would be the ones they got.
It can go wrong, it can't.
It's unbelievable that things in the world are so unpredictable.
Maybe it's because I didn't explain it clearly beforehand, maybe it's because God deliberately made a joke, maybe it's just because of some random mistakes.
There is an undue affection between these young people, which will eventually lead to undue hatred.
