To be fair, Xu Luose and Isabel are about the same, but Zhou Xingyun feels that Isabel's allure and feminine charm are slightly higher than Xu Luose's. Qin Shou thinks that Xu Luose can be ranked second because he has no chance to get close contact with her.
Watch Isabel...
Zhou Xingyun felt that he was unable to resist the temptation of Sister Xuannv. Otherwise, he would have been stupid and agreed to the other party's rude request. Regardless of whether he won the Young Heroes Conference or not, he promised to do two things for the beauty.
Zhou Xingyun thought about it carefully, so far, only Isabel has the ability to paralyze his rationality, making him completely lose his resistance, and truly defeated by the beauty's pomegranate skirt.
"Am I second?" Xu Luose was puzzled. He was confused by the incomprehensible words of Qin Shou and others. He didn't know what they meant by second place.
"Don't you have something serious to do?" Zhou Xingyun frowned. This morning he asked a few animals to go to the river to catch fish and shrimps. As a result, the boys shook their heads and said that the important task of selecting beauties from the world was at a critical juncture and they did not have time.
Wasted on trivial matters.
"Combining work and rest." Qin Shou explained shamelessly, saying that Zhou Xingyun came back as soon as they rested in the tree house. What a coincidence.
"Sister Luo Se, Jill, Uncle Xiahou, why are you here?" Xu Zhiqian looked at the three of them in disbelief. She was practicing her internal strength in the small tree house, but unexpectedly, the outside of the house suddenly became lively.
"Sister Zhiqian." When the little beauty saw Xu Zhiqian, she hurriedly got off the uncle's bodyguard, trotted under the tree house, and looked up at Xu Zhiqian on the tree.
There was a rope ladder in the treehouse, but Xia Jier was young and wanted to climb up but was too scared. As a result, she could only wait under the treehouse. In the end, she had no choice but to turn around and ask for help from the uncle's bodyguard...
"Jill, wait, I'll be down soon." Xu Zhiqian looked at Zhou Xingyun and blinked cutely. Although she didn't want to admit it, Xu Zhiqian found speechlessly that she could climb up and down the small tree house by herself, but it took a bit long...
Zhou Xingyunting wanted to know the purpose of Xu Luose and the others, so he followed Xu Zhiqian, used Qinggong to climb up the tree house, and carried the talented lady down in three strokes.
Xia Jier seemed to like Xu Zhiqian very much. When she saw her coming down from the tree house, Ruyan threw herself into her arms and threw herself at her: "Where's sister Xiaoqing?"
"Sister Xiaoqing knew that Jill was coming today, so she went hunting in the mountains to prepare delicious food for you. She will be back in a while." Xu Zhiqian coaxed the little girl in good faith, and then looked at Xu Luose and the uncle's bodyguard with a puzzled look, as if
Asking why they are here?
"It's nothing serious, we just came to see the eldest lady." The uncle's bodyguard replied respectfully, as if the Xu family was worried about Xu Zhiqian going out alone and sent a servant to check on the situation.
However, Zhou Xingyun, who was standing next to Xu Luose, found that the girl seemed to have something to say, but the uncle's bodyguard spoke first, so she did not speak.
"Uncle Xiahou, thank you for your hard work." Xu Zhiqian nodded with a smile, and then warmly entertained the three people who came from afar. She even pulled Zhou Xingyun's sleeve, hoping that he could make coffee for the three of them.
Zhou Xingyun was very happy that beauty came from afar. Even if Xu Zhiqian didn't say anything, he would entertain Xu Luose and Xia Jier well.
However, Xia Jier is still a little girl, seemingly three or four years younger than Wushuang's little sister, and is not good at drinking coffee, so he makes his own decision to mix honey with milk for beauty and health.
Xu Zhiqian, Xu Luose and Xia Jier had a heated chat. The talented lady Bingxue was smart and naturally did not think what the uncle's bodyguard said was true. She understood her sister's situation better than anyone else. Xu Luose could not leave the capital without special reasons.
Zhou Xingyun's guess is correct. Xu Luo Se is a traditional lady who never leaves home. She is a greenhouse flower carefully cultivated by the Xu family. She goes out of the house countless times throughout the year. Apart from her family members, she probably doesn't even see the neighbors of the Taifu Mansion.
Passing Xu Luose. The girl's visit to Young Master Haolin's room this time may be the first time in her life that she has left the capital.
Xu Zhiqian was uneasy. It was hard to imagine what had happened in the capital, so that her grandfather would let Xia Jier and Xu Luose leave the capital.
"Miss Luo Se, I think you seem to have something to say just now. If you don't mind, you might as well tell us now." Zhou Xingyun spoke in a friendly manner. The uncle's bodyguard was a servant, and Xu Zhiqian and the three girls were together, so he retreated consciously.
Stand guard aside.
As long as Li Xiaofan and others don't make shocking moves to tease beautiful women, the uncle's bodyguards shouldn't come over to discuss right and wrong...
Xu Luose seemed a little afraid of the cold. He faced the bonfire with his hands to keep warm while looking at the stars and flames and said, "Actually, it's nothing else. My father has already said it."
"Father? Ha! That uncle is your father?!" Zhou Xingyun thought that he had rich experience and had guessed a lot of relevant information. Unexpectedly, the beauty also saved a trick. The uncle's bodyguard turned out to be Xu Luose's father...
"Sister Luo Se, has something happened in the capital? Is grandpa okay?" Xu Zhiqian asked worriedly. When she saw the three people, she was most worried about the situation in the capital. If the situation was not serious, how could her grandfather let Luo se and Ji
Xia Jier went out? Now Xia Jier walked a long way to Haolin's room. After drinking hot milk, she fell asleep tiredly. Xu Zhiqian happened to ask what happened to the Xu family.
"Zhiqian, don't worry too much, everything is fine with grandpa."
"Since everything is fine, why did you...?" Xu Zhiqian was completely confused. Since nothing serious happened, why did the three of them come to Haolin's room to find him?
"Not long after you left the capital, grandpa arranged for me to go on a blind date with the Sixteenth Emperor, and decided that I would marry the emperor as his concubine in the first month of next year. Later, grandpa asked me if there was anything I wanted to do before getting married, and said that he could satisfy me.
A small request, so I thought about it and decided to come and see the rumored martial arts feast, especially that sister Zhiqian is attending the Young Heroes Conference and the man who can impress me."
"Objection! The Sixteenth Emperor is not a good person! You should not marry him! On behalf of all the members of Yushu Zifang, I oppose your marriage!" Li Xiaofan roared angrily without Zhou Xingyun opening his mouth. What is the Sixteenth Emperor? He
I have long heard from Xu Zhiqian and other women that if such a beautiful woman is forced to marry such a powerful, handsome and rich man as a concubine, she will never be happy.
"Thank you Mr. Li for your concern. The daughter of the people appreciates it. Marriage is the order of the parents. Grandpa is willing to make the decision for Luo se to choose a husband. It is Luo se's honor. Moreover, the sixteenth emperor has a noble status, and Luo se, a humble commoner, can serve him.
It is truly a blessing for me." Xu Luose responded very humbly, as if marrying the sixteenth son of the emperor was a great happiness.
Xu Zhiqian frowned when she heard this, a little unbelievable. Is it really grandpa's decision to betroth Xu Luose to the sixteenth son of the emperor?
"One more thing you forgot to mention is that as long as you please the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor, you can bring great benefits to the Xu family. Right?" Zhou Xingyun couldn't help but sneer, added in a very unhappy tone, and then he stood up and sat still.
Xu Zhiqian was thinking: "Miss Luo Se, you guys talk first, Zhi Qian and I will go pick up some firewood to make lunch later."
"Brother Yun, go slowly! We will entertain Miss Luo Se well!" Qin Shou knew that Zhou Xingyun would never let a beautiful woman fall into the tiger's mouth, so he pulled Xu Zhiqian away. They must discuss national affairs, so they winked at Zhou Xingyun wittily and hinted that they were determined.
He will keep an eye on the uncle's bodyguard to prevent outsiders from interfering with his conversation with Xu Zhiqian.
Zhou Xingyun quickly pulled Xu Zhiqian out of the small tree house, muttering and cursing as he walked: "Damn old fox! He actually planned to sacrifice Luo Se to preserve the Xu family bloodline! I thought the old guy was honest enough and wouldn't use marriage as a bargaining chip, and sure enough,
, an honest official does things more ruthlessly and decisively than a corrupt official, I really underestimate him."
In Zhou Xingyun's thinking, the eldest ladies of the official family can generally be divided into two categories. One is like Xu Zhiqian and Huo Tingting, who are the orthodox eldest ladies. They are doted on in the family and are unrestrained in their daily lives. They can do whatever they want when they grow up.
Then you can find a man you like and get married.
The other type is like Xu Luose, who has door rules and regulations, never leaves the house, practices etiquette at home, and is proficient in the Four Treasures of Music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. When he grows up, he will marry into a noble family in the court according to the family's needs.
Zhou Xingyun originally thought that Mrs. Xu was upright and honest, and would not engage in heresy. Who knew that the old man had a secret trick and cultivated sweet fruits early, so that his hidden granddaughter could sacrifice her life to serve the tiger.
In this way, even if the government changes, the Xu family can at least keep its lifeline. For the sake of his stunning wife, the sixteenth son of the emperor will let the legitimate son of the Xu family go for the time being, so as not to really implicate the nine clans.
However, has Mrs. Xu ever thought about the future of his granddaughter? No matter whether the crown prince ascends the throne or the sixteenth son of the emperor succeeds, Xu Luose will not end well.
The prince ascended the throne, and Xu Luose became the concubine of the sixteenth son of the emperor, so serious crimes were inevitable.
The sixteenth son of the emperor ascended the throne, and Xu Luose suffered even more misfortune. The Xu family was ruined, and without the support of the family, how could a woman who became the emperor have a happy ending?
To put it bluntly, throwing such a beautiful woman to the Sixteenth Emperor's son was so cruel and cruel that it is not enough to describe it. How could Zhou Xingyun sit idly by and ignore it? He would rather let Xu Luo se marry Han Feng than allow her to marry the Tenth Emperor.
Liuzi. Of course, marrying him is undoubtedly the best choice...
"Zhiqian, please tell me first, what is the background of Xia Jier and Xu Luose!" Zhou Xingyun had to figure out the relationship between these people before he could guess the overall situation.
"How should I put it...Jier is the daughter of my aunt Zhiqian, my cousin. Sister Luo Se is the daughter of my eldest aunt, my cousin."
"What about Uncle Xiahou? Is he your cousin's father?" Zhou Xingyun was a little confused. The relationship between the big family is so complicated.
"Well. Uncle Xiahou was actually my little aunt's escort, but he fell in love with her, and finally made great achievements and married into the Xu family. However, he has always done his duty and served my little aunt, and now he is Ji'er's attendant."
"Your circle is so chaotic!" Zhou Xingyun could only think of these four words.
"Xia Jier's father is the general of Zhennan, Mu Lianhou, and Xia Ling. His father is stationed at the border and rarely returns to Beijing, so Jier has been living with his aunt at her parents' house."
