199: Xiaocheng chaos (thirty-nine) [asking for monthly votes]
I'm afraid Shen Tang himself didn't expect how muddy the muddy waters in the northwest of the mainland would be, so much so that it would kick off a change that would shake up the entire continent! At that time, the people were still sleeping, and the crisis was like carrion. The smell of death in maggot time spreads quietly.
Zhai Huan couldn't sleep for half the night.
Zhai Le came over and vaguely heard something he muttered: "Zi Wei comes out of the northwest to protect the unification of the world... It's really a big deal."
Zhai Le held the dry food in his mouth: "Brother, what's causing such a big fuss?"
Zhai Huan said: "Last night's vision!"
Zhai Le: "That dragon?"
Zhai Huan looked solemn: "Well, whether it is for the national seal or to become the rumored 'Purple Star', those ambitious forces, big and small, will gather here, and a melee is inevitable."
This is what bothers him the most.
Zhai Le muttered: "Oh, it's really the same everywhere."
Zhai Huan smiled bitterly and said nothing.
His eyes fell in the direction of Xiaocheng and he pursed his lips slightly.
The giant dragon shadow that appeared last night was obviously not the national seal of the Xin State. If the Xin State still had such a strong national destiny, how could Zheng Qiao not encounter decent resistance along the way? The Xin State would not have destroyed the country so quickly. Thinking At this point, Zhai Huan's heart skipped a beat in his chest.
He asked his cousin: "If you are done here, why don't you go back?"
Zhai Le said: "Yeah, okay."
The bad debts in my hometown are not much better than here in the northwest.
Although he is very free to travel outside, and there are not so many restrictions, and almost no one except his cousin cares about him, but after wandering for a long time, he still feels that his hometown is better - maybe "it" is not good in the eyes of outsiders, but because of this, He just wanted to go back.
Do your best and do something.
The smile on Zhai Le's lips didn't last long before he heard his cousin talk about it again: "Do you still remember the legitimate daughter of the Zhao family in Xunnan?"
"Ah? The... girl from the Zhao family in Xunnan? I have a vague impression. I just remember that she was so delicate and weak that a gust of wind could blow her away." Zhai Le hadn't realized it yet. I held my chin and thought about it for a long time, with a grimace on my face. I only remembered that the girl loved to cry very much, and she also liked to complain, "...she also caused me to be scolded by my father and mother..."
Zhai Le remembers that it happened when he was very young.
The elders went to the banquet to chat with others, and the children of similar age played together. Zhai Le is the younger among the children of his generation, but he can play and has a lively and active personality. Even children older than him like to play with him. Play with him.
He's also cute, who wouldn't like him?
Zhai Le has always been so confident until he met the Sanniang of the Xunnan Zhao family. She liked to act like an adult at a young age, saying that this is not okay and that is not okay. Zhai Le saw that she was born with a cute face, and heard the servant girl say that she was He had been sick since he was a child and had never been out of the hospital a few times. He felt sympathy for her, so he picked several flowers that he thought were the most beautiful, trying to make her smile...
result--
Not only did Sanniang Zhao not laugh, she also cried.
He cried so hard that he almost pouted, and even alarmed all the elders. When Zhai Le was feeling hesitant and at a loss, he was beaten severely by his father who came over, and was imprisoned for three months when he returned home! After that! Every time I meet her, I will be taught a lesson when I go back.
When Zhai Le inquired about it, he found out that the third wife of the Zhao family had complained to her elders, saying that he was not in compliance with the rules here and that he was not in line with etiquette. He was really angry! But that person was too weak. She would be frightened into convulsions if she made even the slightest noise, so Zhai Le couldn't avoid it. , I can’t wait to stick to the wall.
As he got older, men and women began to avoid taboos. In addition, his cultivation was on the right track and he rarely attended those occasions. He rarely heard from the Zhao family's Sanniang. Why did his cousin mention that girl so suddenly? He was confused. Understanding, Zhai Huan smiled bitterly.
"This is your impression of others?"
Zhai Le curled his lips: "Otherwise, what impression would there be?"
Zhai Huan: "Don't you know she has always liked you?"
Zhai Le suddenly understood something, and his expression became distorted and unnatural for a moment. He twisted his sleeves with his fingers and said, "What do you mean she likes it? I just remember how hard dad beat me...Brother, don't you want to be messy?" Yuanyangpu? No, no, this won’t work.”
Furthermore, the reputation of an unmarried woman is very important.
How could such outrageous rumors spread?
His head shook like a rattle.
Zhai Huan said with a smile: "This is not because of brother. The Xunnan Zhao family came to the door personally to mention it. How can this be false? People will not joke about the reputation of women in the clan. It's just that my uncle and aunt thought that you were still young, so they didn't do it at that time. Not agreed yet."
My aunt even asked Zhai Huan to help with the insinuation.
As a cousin, how could Zhai Huan know what kind of girls his cousin likes? Zhao from Xunnan still refused to give up after being politely rejected. Out of love for her legitimate daughter, she privately said that as long as Zhai Le was not engaged, the marriage would be fine. There is room for peace.
Zhai Le's head got big after hearing this.
He said: "If a man has not made any achievements, how can he be a family?"
After saying that, he paused again.
"Besides, it's really not a good match."
Zhai Huan said: "What's wrong with a man's talent and his beauty?"
Zhai Le didn't hide anything: "Don't you want to embarrass my unmarried sister-in-law? The third wife of the Zhao family is indeed very good. She has a good family background, talents and accomplishments. In total, I am considered a high achiever."
What he said was not self-deprecation, but the truth.
The Zhai Le branch belongs to the second wife of the Zhai family.
His father was born prematurely in August and had been weak since he was a child. The long delay in medical treatment was a huge expense. Even though he was cared for when the family was separated, he still had the title of "clear stream celebrity" and received more family property than originally planned. But there is also pressure to make ends meet.
In order to help his brother, the eldest uncle also took Zhai Le over, and the food and clothing expenses were similar to those of his cousin Zhai Huan.
Elders treat everyone equally, and Zhai Le cannot ignore good and evil.
Sanniang Zhao's family background is too good, but that's not good.
It's just right with my cousin.
But my cousin had an engagement when he was young, and the woman was from a noble family. However, something unexpected happened in the future, something happened to the cousin's family, the lintel fell, and she was disfigured due to an accident. The two people who were originally a good match were no longer suitable, but the cousin
Unwilling.
Canceling the engagement at this time would, on the one hand, seem to suggest that the poor love the rich, or be greedy for sex, and on the other hand, it would force the woman to go to a dead end. Since it is a destiny, how can it be canceled just because of a little setback?
Only she can sit in the position of the Zhai clan's wife.
Zhai Huan personally visited the house to express his firm attitude towards the marriage, saying frankly that it didn't matter what his family background was, or his appearance.
If Zhai Le is engaged to the third wife of the Zhao family, it will be difficult for her future cousin-in-law. After all, in an environment where family background is important, the family background of a clan wife is not as good as that of a second wife, and it will inevitably lead to rumors.
Based on Zhai Le's understanding of the Zhao family's third wife...
He was really afraid that Zhao's Sanniang would say to his future cousin-in-law, "You can't do this, it's against etiquette", so it was best to refuse.
Who knows——
Zhai Huan said: "Brother Kewei hopes you will accept it."
Zhai Le: "What should I do if my sister-in-law has not yet passed the wedding?"
Doesn't this embarrass her?
Zhai Le has ideas about his own marriage and a preferred type, but when it comes to real marriage discussions, personal preferences are not as important as other conditions. In any case, blind marriages are blind marriages. As long as the newlyweds work hard, the results will be very different.
.
On the contrary, if you don't manage well after marriage, no matter how good you are with each other before marriage, you will end up in a mess. This is Zhai Le's "marriage and love experience" derived from a pile of popular scripts.
Zhai Huan said with a smile: "What you are worried about will not happen."
His fiancée is not as easy to bully as Zhai Le thought. Besides, Zhao's Sanniang has never been known to be domineering and arrogant in so many years - except for staring at Zhai Le and snitching when she was a child, but this is really not the case.
Weird woman.
Who makes Zhai Lepi really deserve a beating? It is not unfair at all to be beaten for harming the flowers, fish and trees that others have worked so hard to raise.
Zhai Le held up her chin: "But it was several years ago that Zhao from Xunnan came to propose marriage. Maybe she has already discussed and got married?"
He didn't ask why his cousin suddenly mentioned his marriage, nor why he recommended Zhao's Sanniang. It wasn't that he didn't want to ask, but that he had the answer in his heart and there was no need to ask.
However, if his cousin hadn't told him, he really wouldn't have known that the third lady of the Zhao family actually liked him...
Zhai Le couldn't laugh or cry.
He thought she hated him.
Zhai Huan shook his head again: "No."
Zhai Le whispered to himself: "If this is the case... it's not impossible... At worst, we can go back and find out what's so interesting about 'talking about poetry and Taoism, Thrush Girl', and maybe we can talk about it..."
You have to know that at his age, even if he doesn't take the initiative to find out, his peers will occasionally talk about the situation of unmarried women of various ages. After all, there is only such a wide range of marriage partners to choose from, so it doesn't hurt to do some homework in advance.
Occasionally, he would listen to what Mrs. Zhao was doing.
The reputation is naturally good.
A girl from one family is sought after by hundreds of families.
It's just that she's not keen on going out, and rarely agrees to invitations from other girls of her age. Nine times out of ten, she refuses on the grounds of recuperation.
Seeing Zhai Le speaking so cheerfully, it was Zhai Huan's turn to be stunned. He couldn't help but emphasize very seriously, for fear that Zhai Le would not understand: "But Ah Le, if you already have a candidate you like, then tell your brother, Xunnan
Don't worry about Zhao's side. Getting married is not about enmity between two families. If things don't work out, it's because of insufficient fate..."
He wanted to gain the support of the Xunnan Zhao family through his cousin, but this was not the only way. If he really wanted to join forces through marriage, he would be more suitable than Zhai Le, and he would not have insisted on fulfilling the contract when the woman proposed to terminate it.
Engaged.
He is more than just a cousin of Zhai Le.
He is not even the only son in the family, he also has brothers.
But there was only one Zhai Le who fell in love with him, played together since childhood, and supported each other. If Zhai Le really wanted to belong, he would not use Zhai Le's marriage as a bargaining chip. Zhai Le is not only his younger brother, but also his brother to some extent.
He can be regarded as his raised "son".
_(:3 ∠?)_
Zhai Le was confused by his question.
Smiling and waving his hands, he said, "No, no!"
Just kidding, who does he know? How could his cousin not know about it? Qing Yishui's husband! Which one can he like? Furthermore, the world is so chaotic that it's too late for a girl to hide at home. How can she escape? He goes up
Where did we meet?
"Brother, have you read too many words of bitterness?"
The kid from an aristocratic family does not dare to disobey the family arrangements, endures the pain of being separated from the one he loves, and suffers from the pain of lovesickness. The drama will not happen to him. It is not like he goes around naked and causes trouble. He is at an age where he wants to get into trouble. He knows what he wants in his heart.
.
If you want to talk about what is wrong with Sanniang Zhao...
Maybe his body is too weak.
Alas, he still prefers those who can fight.
so--
Why can't women in this world be literary and courageous?
If there could be such a thing, the third wife of the Zhao family would probably be a talented and gentle scholar, but she looked weak on the surface, but was actually extremely fast and powerful on the battlefield. Each of them was a literary and military scholar, so they complemented each other.
Zhai Le put the matter aside without worrying for long.
It's too early to think about this now.
Zhai Le looked at the rising golden crow in the sky and murmured.
The brothers had to get out of this troubled situation and return to their home country before they could consider starting a family, otherwise it would all be a dream.
Brother Zhai Huan did not deliberately guard against others in their conversation.
Captain Yang closed his eyes and listened to most of it.
A little surprised.
He seemed to be confused about the primary and secondary relationship between the two brothers.
However, Zhai Huan is indeed more suitable than Zhai Le.
Perhaps it was some kind of intuition, but he always felt that once the Zhai Huan brothers returned, they would surely dive into the sea, and their future would be limitless. At this time, he thought of the rumor he had heard unexpectedly - Zi Wei went out to the northwest to protect the unification of the world - and he didn't know who it was.
That purple star.
Can this world really end and become unified?
——————
I don't know how Wu Yuan would feel if he knew that the rumors he had put out so hard to create a wedding dress for someone else.
This was originally one of the back-ups he had laid down, in order to build momentum for himself at a suitable time in the future.
After all, the Northern Desert has always been criticized as a foreign race, and hundreds of countries in the mainland have never considered the Northern Desert to be of the same family as them.
No matter how fierce the internal fighting is in the family, it is all their own business, and it is absolutely impossible for outsiders to come and snatch the "industry".
If you want to weaken the resistance, you need the blessing of "Destiny".
As a result, the phantom of a giant dragon really appeared in Xiaocheng.
But no one thought of "Ziweixing" on him.
Wu Yuan felt very embarrassed!
However, there are people who are in a more irritable mood than he is.
Needless to say, this person is the leader of the Geng Kingdom—Zheng Qiao.
A luxurious and extravagant palace.
The officials in court uniforms stood tremblingly, with their heads lowered and their eyebrows lowered. The air was filled with a dignified and solemn atmosphere of terror.
The energy of heaven and earth within a few miles radius changed from the usual warm atmosphere to chaos and violence. Under this pressure, the weaker officials' faces turned pale and they sweated profusely. Their inner shirts were soaked by the sticky stickiness that was constantly leaking out.
The sweat wets the skin and sticks tightly to the skin.
Not to mention complaining, they didn't even dare to breathe.
Secretly, I was unlucky. If I had known this, it would have been better to report sick early and hide at home instead of facing the ravages of the storm.
There were just riots everywhere, but why did those two lunatics from the Geng Kingdom jump out to cause trouble for the leader of the country, Zheng Qiao? Zheng Qiao was not feeling well, and his ministers were feeling even worse, like a sword hanging from the side of his neck.
It's okay if I'm dead, but I'm afraid it will harm my family.
"Why don't you speak?"
There seemed to be a slight smile in his words.
The young man who spoke has a handsome and feminine appearance, mixed with an astonishing beauty that transcends gender, and is unparalleled in beauty. In terms of appearance, there are probably not many people in the world who are better than him, but there is a natural ridicule and meanness in his face. Beauty is beautiful.
Yes, it makes people afraid to get close to him.
As for being motivated by sex and feeling blasphemous?
The last person who dared to do this had weeds three feet tall on his grave.
The old leader of the Xin Kingdom who had succeeded?
At this time, it is hard to live but to die. The royal family of Xin, young and old, has become a toy for young people to have fun and vent their anger.
In the first half of my life, I was very prosperous, but now I am very miserable.
"Weren't all of them eloquent on weekdays? Why are they all mute now!" Zheng Qiao had a smile on her lips one second, but her face suddenly changed in the next second. She waved her hand and threw a bunch of memorials into the sky, smashing the official hats of the courtiers.
, the bleeding mark on the forehead shows the strength, "The national seal of Xin State was not recovered, and a ninth-level and fifth-level doctor was allowed to go free, and the two losers of the Pig King became a climate under their noses..."
