Chapter 119: How Can I Give You Away?
Hurriedly escaping from the compound, Zheng Xiyuan was about to go back, but he heard a noisy sound at the door of the main gate......
But it looks like his uncle Zheng Tianyun and aunt Zhao Zishan. {szcn}
I was about to go up to say hello, but I saw my aunt's eyes red, and she was arguing with Zheng Tianyun emotionally. Seeing this scene, Zheng Xiyuan had to stop. Now is obviously not the time, and the topic of their quarrel is also very much of Zheng Xiyuan's concern......
But I saw my aunt pull Zheng Tianyun's sleeve and say, "Marriage? You are really crazy! You can show me now, how old is your daughter, can you bear to marry her out now?"
Zheng Tianyun frowned and said, "It's not that she gets married now, it's just that she gets engaged first." Moreover, the second brother also said that the situation on the mainland is not stable now. The Buffy Empire has the possibility of losing power at any time, and it is very important for the Zheng family to maintain a good relationship with the Nalan family of the Holy Light Empire now. ”
"Then you can't use your daughter as a bargaining chip, what are they doing with your daughter? You can see the appearance of the mark these days, and you haven't eaten properly for several days. Is she at the age to think about such a thing? I would never agree to it anyway. I'll send her to Tianyuan Academy tomorrow!"
Zheng Tianyun's face sank: "You dare?!This is the decision of my second brother and me, anyway, the girl's family is going to get married." It's just to decide the object early, you say, what's wrong with the Nalan family?"
..................
After that, there were endless quarrels.
Marriage, cousin and people from the Nalan family?
When Zheng Qingchen had just left, the gloom in his eyes flashed in front of him again......
Cousin, is it really unwilling?
Isn't this nonsense? Zheng Xiyuan wants to give himself a mouthful. How can any woman like this kind of fate, but because of the obvious entanglement of power, the aristocratic women who are forced to marry are not new in the Tianyuan Continent.
A possessiveness, for some reason, suddenly rose from the heart......
If you don't want to, no one can force your cousin. Zheng Xiyuan has found a reason for himself to be unhappy about this matter, but what should he do......
Just as he was in a daze, Zhao Zishan glanced in the direction he was in surprise: "Xiyuan?"
If Zheng Xiyuan deliberately wanted to hide, Zhao Zishan would definitely not be able to find him. But at this moment, he was confused, and it was not difficult to find him with the strength of Zhao Zishan's Divine Grace Mage-level magician.
Knowing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Zheng Xiyuan simply stood up and greeted, "Uncle, aunt." ”
Zheng Tianyun knew that he had heard what he had just said, so he glanced at him unhappily. Snorted coldly and walked away on his own.
Zhao Zishan hesitated, and finally did not catch up again, but walked towards Zheng Xiyuan: "Xiyuan, you just came back?"
Nodding, Zheng Xiyuan didn't speak yet, but Zhao Zishan pulled him to sit down by the lake in the atrium, and the servant went down to serve tea.
"Marriage...... What's going on?" After hesitating for a while, Zheng Xiyuan asked.
Zhao Zishan glanced at him and didn't speak, until she retired after the next person finished serving tea, she hesitated, sighed and said, "Actually, this kind of thing shouldn't have told you about this child." But Xiyuan, you have been precocious since you were a child, and you are better with Qingji, and you are still one of the heirs of the next head of the family, so I think it is necessary to tell you. ”
When Zhao Zishan said that it was good, her tone was obviously a little strange. Zheng Xiyuan originally wanted to say that he had given up the inheritance of the position of head of the family, but after hesitating, he still chose to remain silent and quietly listened to Zhao Zishan.
Sighing, Zhao Zishan continued: "Do you know? The eldest prince of the Buffy Empire has been in Obsidian City for the past few days. However, he brought bad news. ......”
It turned out that due to the previous war with the Holy Light Empire, the Buffy Empire lost a large number of mechas. Originally, this matter should be good news for the two major alchemy families who served in the Buffy Empire, the Zheng family and the Kitano family. The more mechs are lost, the more mechs the army needs to replenish, and the two can earn tens of billions of gold coins from it.
In this regard, the eldest prince Remus came this time and indeed placed a large order. But for the high-end mecha manufacturing technology that the Zheng family has always been complacent, the Buffy empire is not satisfied. Indicates that after this order, they may no longer buy those old mechs, but will instead buy those new types of Falling Feather Buildings from the emerging Kingdom of Falling Feathers.
The so-called new style of falling rain is of course the Aegis and other gundams made by Zheng Xiyuan. This is naturally good news for Zheng Xiyuan, but for the Zheng family, it is definitely a disaster with five thunders.
A gold mecha that can be worth tens of millions of gold coins can't be sold? How can the Zheng family, which has never won with the output of mechas, make a profit?
"So they want their cousin to marry into the Nalan family of the Holy Light Empire, so as to show favor to the Nalan family and prepare for the family to move to the Holy Light Empire in the future?" Zheng Xiyuan asked in a deep voice.
Needless to say, the aunt continued to elaborate, and he was able to guess the general situation of the matter. If the Buffy Empire buys weapons from the Falling Feather Kingdom, it also means that it has the intention of forming an alliance with the Falling Feather Kingdom, although Zheng Xiyuan has long guessed this possibility, but he did not expect that the impact on the Zheng family will be so great, causing the Buffy Empire to directly abandon the Zheng family.
However, it stands to reason that since the Buffy Empire decided to buy the weapons of the Luoyu Kingdom and form an alliance with it, the Zheng family could not occupy the market. Then just find a country that won't ally with the Feather Kingdom, and buy them weapons - and that country is the Holy Light Empire.
The Kingdom of Falling Feather and the Dynasty of Assis have fought several battles so far, and the Kingdom of Falling Feather has won overwhelming victories in almost every battle. Not to mention that Yasis is an ally of the Holy Light, just to maintain its hegemony, the Holy Light Empire cannot allow the Falling Feather Kingdom to make such a ruckus, and the suppression is certain.
Since there is going to be a fight, you can't ask the opponent whether you buy or sell arms, right?
Since this is the case, then they need to use ordinary mecha to deal with the Gundam in Zheng Xiyuan's hands. Therefore, if there is a war, they will inevitably need the Zheng family's mecha.
But even so, the Zheng family, which has no foundation in the Holy Light Empire, also needs a middleman and backer. This is the Nalan family. The war is about to begin, and the amount of mechs that the Holy Light Empire may need to wear and tear is astronomical. Even the Nalan family would not be able to swallow this huge business alone, so they needed the Zheng family's high-end mecha manufacturing technology to help the Holy Light Empire win the Falling Feather Kingdom.
The Zheng family and the Nalan family, in this situation, this "couple who share hardships" is simply a match made in heaven - of course, all of them ignore whether a girl can be happy in this marriage.
"Although I tried my best to prevent it, the current situation seems impossible to prevent this marriage. Alas...... Xiyuan, go and comfort your sister. Zhao Zishan said with a sad face.
Although he didn't want to agree with her words, Zheng Xiyuan still nodded. I drove alone towards the Fengwan Pavilion in the east of the city.
There is a lake in the east and west of Obsidian City, and the lake in the west of the city is called initiation, and the Zheng family's ranch is separated from the center of Obsidian City, so it is very far away from the city.
The lake in the east of the city is called Silver Moon, but this lake is in the city of Obsidian. It is a small but beautiful man-made lake, and it is also a place for the people of Obsidian City to take a rest.
Fengwan Pavilion is built according to the Silver Moon Lake, if the dishes and decoration are luxurious, Tianyue Pavilion is the first in Obsidian City, then Fengwan Pavilion is the scenery outside the building and crowns Obsidian City.
Park your car at the entrance of the Wind Evening Pavilion.
In the already dark night, the evening breeze rubbed on his face. The bright red sunset glows crimson, reflecting the flickering light spots on the surface of the lake. The birds crossed the lake and headed for the mountains outside the city, but the Wind Pavilion by the lake still stood there, fading in the night.
The view is really nice...... However, our Zheng Ershao obviously doesn't know how to appreciate. However, he knows that a person loves ...... since he was a child
Closing the car door, Zheng Xiyuan walked into the Fengwan Pavilion, and the guy was about to say hello to Zheng Ergongzi, but he didn't dare to say anything when he saw his gloomy face.
Kicking six or seven tables in the way, the hot atmosphere in the Fengwan Pavilion fell silent for a while, and in the awe-inspiring eyes of the crowd, Zheng Xiyuan went directly to the top floor of the fifth floor.
Unlike the overcrowded floors below, the fifth floor was dead silent. The light of the setting sun shone into the dim attic, on the empty wooden table, on the old and quaint masts, exuding an indifferent atmosphere of decay, but it could make the heart suddenly calm down.
On the mast lay a young girl, staring blankly at the distant lake. The evening breeze gently ruffled her hair, blew her gauze skirt, and narrowed her eyes slightly.
The car downstairs had already informed her of Zheng Xiyuan's arrival, and when she heard the footsteps behind her, she turned her head to look at him with a smile, and said in a mocking tone: "Doesn't our second son go to Tianyue Pavilion for dinner on weekdays?
Zheng Xiyuan didn't answer her question, just stared at her quietly.
Looking at him, the smile on Zheng Qingjian's face gradually dimmed. She turned around, and a faint voice came, "It's... You already know that, right?"
Zheng Xiyuan sighed and stepped forward: "Why don't you discuss such a big matter with me?"
Zheng Qingzhen was silent for a long time before she said: "I still remember when I was a child, I dragged you here to eat, and at that time I said that it was very beautiful in the evening, but after you arrived, you looked like you were lacking in interest, which made me half angry." At that time, I said to you, 'Xiyuan, you really don't know how to please girls, if you continue like this, be careful that you don't like girls when you grow up.'" As a result, in a blink of an eye, Ruoxi, Yuluo, and not necessarily Yuxun for a while, there are already so many beautiful girls who are devoted to you, and I have reached the age of leaving the cabinet. ”
Zheng Xiyuan frowned, and Zheng Qingjian's calm narration also made him feel even more uncomfortable. "What do you say? You're only seventeen years old! You're an adult, but it's too early to get married. What's more, it's still the kind of guy I've never seen before. ”
Zheng Qingjin smiled miserably, glanced at Zheng Xiyuan with a complicated expression, and said: "Okay, don't say it, born in a family like the Zheng family, marriage is a common thing, I have long been mentally prepared for this, not to mention ...... No matter what kind of person it is, it's the same for me. ”
As she spoke, she got up with a gust of incense and walked downstairs.
Zheng Xiyuan looked at her back, and the mast bar in his hand had turned into sawdust like sand at some point.
A punch smashed the table beside him, Zheng Xiyuan said with a gloomy face: "How can I hand you over like this?"
