Section 156: Marriage proposal

Mu Shengdao: "Because of the war between you and the officials and soldiers of the South China Kingdom, the demon beasts of the Cave State took advantage of the situation to enter, and the border side is like a purgatory on earth, do you know this scene?"

Su He nodded and said, "I have also heard about this matter, but I have never had the opportunity to help the people there." On the contrary, it has caused a lot of suffering to the people over there, and it is really a bit ashamed to say it. ”

Mu Sheng said with a solemn expression: "I hope you remember that no matter how you fight with the Xirong Army or the Nanhua Army, you are still human beings, and when necessary, I still hope that you can give up your old hatreds and work together to the outside world." ”

Uncle Shuo listened and said: "What Mu Gongzi said is that it's just that the Xirong Army and the Nanhua Army are forcing us tightly, and we only keep fleeing and guerrillas, but there is no way to fight against them, let alone organize forces to deal with demon beasts." ”

Mu Sheng said: "I also know that you are in a difficult situation, but maybe it is more beneficial to your own development to carry the order flag to deal with demon beasts?"

The two glanced at each other after hearing this, and Su He said, "Brother Mu, your proposal and Uncle Shuo and I will come down and think about it carefully, maybe it is really feasible?" But for now, let's talk about your affairs first." ”

Mu Sheng smiled: "There's nothing to do, you just need to find a suitable house for me." ”

Su He said: "Then how to do it, you don't have to worry about this matter, we will come to arrange it for you, you just have to come to the door to propose marriage." ”

Mu Sheng couldn't resist Su He, so he had to go with him, and early the next morning, a tailor came to the door to tailor Mu Sheng, and a matchmaker came over, filled in Mu Sheng's eight characters and took it away, and at noon, the housekeeper came over and joined Li Jia, and asked Mu Sheng to go to the new house to watch.

Su He wanted to find a new house for Mu Sheng in Guo City, walked through the streets and alleys to a less obvious path, and then walked forward gradually becoming flat and wide, and finally arrived at the new house. There are many flowers and innumerable, and the towers and palaces are continuous, about more than ten miles. Mu Sheng saw the plaque inscribed on the main entrance called, "Huizhen Mansion". The plaque on the left gate is called: "Golden Court Palace". The plaque on the right door is called: "Kirishiki". The three doors face each other like a full foot side by side, there are gold lacquer gatehouse white windows, more than 100 zhang high. Enter the right gate, the west side of the door, there is a tall building, the yellow door, and the plaque with the inscription is called: "Right Bi Palace". Looking around, there are thousands of houses, connected by winding corridors, the steps are made of jade, the clear stream in the waterway is turbulent, everywhere is beautiful and brilliant, people look at it and forget to return.

Mu Sheng entered the house with the butler, and the room was hung with splendid curtains, with golden curtains, and a water of purple walls, decorated with pearls and emeralds, shining like many bright stars together. There is an incense burner in front of the tent, and there are dragons, phoenixes, turtles, snakes, birds and other images on the incense burner, all of which open their mouths and spew out cigarettes, which are fragrant.

There is also a pool in the courtyard, the walls of which are made of gold, and the pool is decorated with wild ducks, gulls, and birds. Wild ducks and gulls are carved out of beautiful jade and float on the water. There are beds under the four walls, all decorated with rhino horns and ivory, and countless musical instruments such as qin, se, sheng, pipe, mouse, drum, qi, and qi are placed in the room.

"This ......" Mu Sheng gasped and said, "It's too extravagant, I don't dare to let your master spend so much." Let's give me a new way. Mu Sheng said to the butler.

The housekeeper said with a smile on his face: "My master has ordered, you must be able to do a good job for your adults, your marriage is urgent, and we only have time to find this house, and there is really no way to change it for you." ”

Mu Sheng frowned slightly and said, "Where is your master now?" ”

The housekeeper smiled and said, "There is no way to do this, my master left Gyeonggi City after explaining to me in the morning." ”

"Ah!" Mu Sheng didn't expect Su He and Uncle Na Shuo to give him such a trick, it seems that he can't refuse if he wants to, so he can only handle the marriage according to Su He's arrangement.

Not to mention that the people sent by Su He were extremely efficient, not to mention the mansion where Mu Sheng got married, he even had the invitation card written, and even the dowry gift that Mu Sheng was going to give him tomorrow was complete, just waiting for Mu Sheng to go to the Nangong family mansion early tomorrow morning to propose marriage.

Early in the morning of the second day, as soon as the day was released, a group of people blew and blow, and walked to the Nangong family mansion with Mu Sheng, although it was only a door-to-door marriage, but the number of gifts could not be missing, Su He prepared five thousand horses of silk for Mu Sheng, three thousand ends of sea brocade, one hundred beds of glass amber, and ten pearls of the bright moon, packed in a box, and went to the Nangong family in a mighty way.

Before the Mu Sage arrived, the matchmaker had already arrived at the Nangong family's mansion first, and reported Mu Sheng's eight characters and the gift list of the marriage proposal first, and the elders of the Nangong family were watching it at this moment.

The matchmaker sat in the guest room, and the elders began to talk in the back hall. "If Emperor Nanhua hadn't taken a fancy to Nangong Yuhuan, Mu Sheng would have been a good match, but now, ......" The Great Elder shook his head, but he was reluctant to offend Emperor Nanhua because of Mu Sheng.

Mu Shengti came suddenly, and Nangong Yuhuan hadn't mentioned it to the elders of the Nangong family before, so most of the elders didn't know about it, but after such a discussion at this time, their opinions were quickly unified. It was agreed that the matter could not be accommodated.

But at this moment, he saw Nangong Yuhuan pushing the door in, several elders were taken aback, and the eldest elder said: "You girl's family, why are you not dignified and reserved at all, when you hear someone come to the door to propose marriage, you ran in a panic, what kind of system." ”

Nangong Yuhuan snorted coldly and said: "I'm not coming, I'm afraid you will give back the people who came to propose marriage, right? I don't care so much, I must make my own decisions." ”

The second elder's face sank and said: "Nonsense, the marriage event is all the words of the matchmaker at the behest of the parents, how can you have the final say." ”

Nangong Yuhuan said: "I have already made a private agreement with Brother Mu for life, I will not marry him, he will not marry me, why should you be strong?"

The third elder said: "We are not embarrassed by you, this is also for your good, do you know the emperor's thoughts on you, if you insist on marrying this person in advance now, are you not afraid that the emperor will deal with you, the future husband?"

Nangong Yuhuan smiled when he heard this: "If this is what you are worried about, then you can rest assured, my future husband is not a cowardly and afraid person." ”

"You girl, let's say that, you don't know anything about it!" the second elder pointed at Nangong Yuhuan and reprimanded.

The Great Elder heard the meaning of Nangong Yuhuan's words, and hurriedly pulled the Second Elder and said, "Don't be impatient, and talk about it after seeing the people who come." ”
