The so-called marriage proposal is of course just a joke.
Facts have proven that when you are teased by a girl with a devilish personality, there is no point in just pretending to be a coward. Because the more honest you are, the happier the girl will be.
The only way to break the situation is to fight back! If you are not taboo about meat and vegetables, I will let go of the lower limit. We will pollute each other and see who can assimilate the other first!
Sure enough, when it came to going directly to propose marriage, even Cui Jinqi knew that the other party was just joking, but she was still so angry that she didn't speak to him for a whole half hour.
Half an hour later, she couldn't help it anymore, lying on the back of the chair behind Cheng Jinyang, yawning, and said boredly:
"Work, work, work. When you are a clan leader, besides work, don't you have any other time for rest and entertainment in the day?"
"What else?" Cheng Jinyang continued to deal with the matter, and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to rub his eyebrows, "Do you think the patriarch's job is bad?"
Another Tianluo team lost its signal in the southern part of Jiangning District. Combining the death rate and location during this period, the Geonet Intelligence Department believed that someone in this area was specifically sniping at the Tianluo team, and requested that the area be stopped for the next three hours.
The Tianluo combat power is invested.
Cheng Jinyang hesitated for a moment, because losing the signal does not mean death. It may also be that they have been blocked from the communication channel and are still struggling in the war zone.
However, if we really stop sending people into the area, it means that the Tianluo members who are still alive and fighting inside will no longer be able to wait for rescue.
Still, it had to be approved.
He suddenly remembered his first Tianluo mission. Two cousins, Cheng Huaiyan and Xing Junmo, rushed into the park. Then the communication signal was blocked. Girl Qingqing's father asked him and Ah Zhi to support them.
At that time, the two of them rushed in without hesitation, not entirely because of the employer's request, but to a large extent because they were more inclined to take the initiative and control their destiny.
Why did he become more conservative after becoming the clan leader?
Because at that time, when adopting a risky strategy, all one had to risk was one's own life; now when making decisions in the rear, one careless decision could cost the lives of others...
well.
In the lower right corner of the screen, Xing Yunzhi's profile picture suddenly jumped, and a new message alert appeared:
"The casualty rate of dragnets has been a bit high recently."
"Yes..." Cheng Jinyang was about to type when he saw another message from Ah Zhi:
"According to frontline intelligence, the vast majority of the special forces that Long Xiang's army infiltrated into Jiankang City are composed of people with special abilities."
Cheng Jinyang was slightly startled, and behind him, Miss Cui, who had a bored expression, suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and her face became serious.
After a long silence, Cheng Jinyang typed a reply:
"Driving the tiger to swallow the wolf?"
After about forty seconds, the other person replied:
"Just doubt."
"However, judging from the information obtained from secret channels, the battle losses of the Shenwu Army and the Yulin Army were only about ten times that of the Aristocratic Family."
"The difference in numbers is hundreds of times, and the battle loss ratio is more than ten times. Isn't this a strategy to drive away tigers and devour wolves?" Cui Jinqi said sarcastically later, "Our Majesty is really the Holy Emperor and the Mingjun. He is in a hurry.
You don’t want to weaken the power of the noble clan?”
"If this is the case, Wuchang may have reached a similar consensus." Cheng Jinyang said in a deep voice, "Wang Chuzhong intends to proclaim himself emperor. A weakened gentry as a whole is more beneficial to him than a strong and united gentry.
,But……"
He didn't say the next words: But don't you, Duke of Wuchang, want to go to the Northern Expedition? How can you go to the Northern Expedition when all the family members are dead?
Is it possible that he wants to imitate Chang Gong, who said, "If you want to fight externally, you must first calm down internally"?
The two of them looked at each other, their expressions gradually becoming frightened, because as they thought about this in this direction, they suddenly realized that the nobles did not have much ability to resist now.
After all, except for the five surname families, most of the noble families have been split into two.
If the Longxiang Army wins, the nobles who stayed in Jiankang will most likely be decimated. After all, the nobles who defected there can quickly digest the production materials here with the help of similar powers when they return.
Advertising, I am using a reading app recently, [app] has many book sources, complete books, and updates quickly!
For example, Cheng Jinyang's current family was killed after the defeat. If the uncle's lineage of gravitation powers comes back, won't he be able to take over Tianluo's business in a matter of minutes?
Therefore, even if the imperial court is secretly weakening the noble clan, everyone must work hard for the imperial court in order to prevent their own lineage from dying.
What's even more outrageous is that such an embarrassing situation was actually caused by the nobles themselves... It's simply speechless.
"What a plan." Cui Jinqi murmured.
Cheng Jinyang was silent for a moment, then picked up his phone and subconsciously planned to find someone for help.
Who to look for?
Can Sister Xinnan do it? Of course not. Not to mention that she guards the shield generator base day and night, so she may not know the emperor's plan. Even if she does, there is no reason to tell herself!
Her favorable impression is entirely for herself, and she only has a bad feeling for the Cheng family in the divine capital. What's more, if the Cheng family in the divine capital is wiped out, wouldn't she be able to live with Princess Shang without any worries?
So, is it okay to ask Miss Wang?
Wait, considering that none of the five surnamed families have rebelled, it seems that they have long expected the secret consensus reached by the emperor and Wang Chuzhong, so they are unwilling to sacrifice their clansmen to the struggle and confrontation between the two camps...
Thinking of this, Cheng Jinyang dialed Wang Wanrou's phone number.
Cui Jinqi stared at the phone screen and reminded:
"She may not be able to answer the phone. Mobile phones are not allowed in the Wang family's land..."
Then the phone was connected, and Miss Wang's unique indifferent tone sounded:
"Hello?"
"Wanrou..." Cheng Jinyang paused, "Have you eaten?"
Cui Xiaoniang was immediately stunned. Aren’t you talking nonsense? Wanrou hates talking nonsense the most!
"I had shrimp wonton noodles." Wang Wanrou said slowly.
"Has the emperor reached an agreement with Long Xiang's army to jointly consume the power of the nobles in both camps?" Realizing that she seemed to be in a good mood at this time, Cheng Jinyang simply got straight to the point and asked directly.
"Did you just find out?" Wang Wanrou asked in surprise.
Cheng Jinyang:…………
Damn it! He tried hard to suppress his incompetent and furious annoyance, and complained like Nobita to Doraemon:
"I just discovered it! Miss, why didn't you warn me earlier? The dragnet is now a bit worn out!"
"When your family decided to split, were you not the patriarch of the Cheng family in the capital city?" Wang Wanrou sneered, "What's the use of telling you?"
Cheng Jinyang:???
That's right, then it's not my responsibility.
"Is there any solution now?" He asked again in a deep voice, having swept away all his regrets.
"There is nothing we can do." Wang Wanrou said, "When the nest is overturned, there will be no intact eggs. In these troubled times, it would be great if a fifth-grade family can continue their bloodline, but why do they expect to remain intact? How many civilians have been destroyed, and they don't even have the ability to protect themselves.
,do you know?"
"Having said that, as the patriarch of the clan, I always try to preserve the vitality of the family as much as possible." Cheng Jinyang said.
"So what does this have to do with me? Forget it." Wang Wanrou sighed, "I'll give you a hint."
"Miss, please speak, I am all ears."
"Your savior is far away but right before your eyes." Wang Wanrou said impatiently, "Think more about it yourself, don't bother me with every little thing, just hang up!"
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Jinyang stared at the darkened screen, speechless.
Cui Jinqi sighed from the side: "Jinyang, Wanrou is so kind to you! She has never been so patient with me..."
"Jinqi!" Cheng Jinyang suddenly stood up and held her hands.
"Ah!" Cui Xiaoniang was caught off guard and screamed, but Cheng Jinyang held her catkins tightly, squeezed out a few tears from the corners of his eyes, and said in a pitiful voice like Liu Bei:
"Jinqi! Miss Cui! Today, the Cheng family in our capital city is like an egg that has fallen from the nest, and is in danger. For the sake of the past friendship between our two families, please save my brother!"
