Chapter 9 Forced Marriage
Although I don't care about the reward or anything, but to be honest, I am still a little dissatisfied with Zhu Xiaofeng's reward, you see, to put it so lively, it is to give Shi Cundao a salary increase, and give a pair of people who don't know what to do, I am a useless marquis except for an extra suite, and the weight of this bit of goods is not even worth the credit of capturing and killing Chen Zhiyuan, not to mention that I once scared off the 800,000 army of Tangtailang alone, and I was tired like a donkey running between the three cities, if it weren't for me, the threshold of the Honglie Empire would have been flattened by Hejis.
I muttered here, and over there Gu Debiao handed over the holy decree to Shi Cundao, walked up to me quickly and said, "Originally, Gonggong Li should have come to this errand, but the emperor remembered that he was not good at pommel horses, so he asked his brother to do it for him." ”
I feel uncomfortable listening to a person in his forties calling himself a brother in front of me, originally I didn't have a bad impression of Gu Debiao, but since he proposed marriage to Shi Dijia, this kid even has to eat the old cow to eat tender grass so grandly, no matter how you look at it, it seems a bit honest but deceitful.
Seeing that I didn't pay attention to him, Gu Debiao smiled again: "In just a few days, I haven't seen Brother Shi make another miraculous achievement, but I'm afraid that I won't wait for my ass to sit hot this time and come to celebrate Brother Shi for the emperor non-stop." ”
I said lazily: "It doesn't matter if you come or not, it's all a false name anyway." ”
Gu Debiao was stunned for a moment, and reluctantly smiled: "Brother Shi said he was joking." ”
Shi Cundao glanced at me and said politely to Gu Debiao: "General Gu has been tired from a long distance, please follow the old man's tent to talk." ”
Gu Debiao bent his waist similarly, and said with a humble smile on his face: "The child can't afford to be a 'please' word." ”
Shi Cundao and everyone were stunned, Gu Debiao suddenly fell to his knees and said: "The matter of the child and Di Jia, thanks to the consent of the old lady and the uncles, Debiao kowtowed to the elders." ”
"This ...... Hurry up, please. Shi Cundao originally subconsciously wanted to help, but suddenly worried about his identity and glanced at Shi Dong, Shi Dong stepped forward to help Gu Debiao, Gu Debiao said with a flattering face: "Thank you, father-in-law." ”
Shi Dong was uncomfortable, only a "hmm", Gu Debiao met everyone in the Shi family one by one, and when he arrived in front of Steven, Stilwell and others, he was also full of enthusiasm and said: "Big brother, second brother, we will all be a family in the future, just call me Debiao in the future." Stilyan arched his hand, and Stilwell frowned and ducked aside.
Gu Debiao took my hand and pretended to be mysterious: "Fifth brother, don't underestimate these rewards, the emperor is not true in the holy decree, and there is a lot of article in the things you have given." ”
"What article?"
Gu Debiao said: "Before you are thirty years old, you are still the first person in this dynasty, and then take the saddle as an example, it is something that the emperor has used before, and he has never rewarded foreign surnames before, these two things alone are much more than making you a first-class general or something." Besides, it is only the beginning of the war, brother, you will have more opportunities to make meritorious contributions in the future. However, Ma Jiyue, the emperor of Heggis, slipped through the net in Chen Zhiyuan's camp, and the emperor also regretted it. ”
I said, "Do you mean that the emperor blames me for not doing things well, so the reward is downgraded?" ”
Gu Debiao hurriedly said: "I don't mean that, besides, this matter is also the fault of our intelligence delay, how can it involve you?" You can rest assured, my father has already cast a net to collect information, as long as there is any more trouble in Heges, my brother will definitely hurry up to deliver a letter to the fifth brother. ”
Shi Cun said: "Thank you for me so much." ”
"What did the old lady say, public and private, this is what a child should do, and besides, haven't we become a family?"
Shi Cundao laughed dryly and said, "That's right." ”
"It's just ......" Gu Debiao stomped around with a pair of small eyes, and hesitated, "It's just that I heard that Di Jia is a little unhappy with this family business, some people say that she is hiding in the barracks, if this matter is true, please ask the old lady and father-in-law to make decisions for the child." ”
Shi Cundao and Shi Dong and the others looked at each other speechlessly, and then glanced at me at the same time, and were hesitating, I said coldly: "If I say no, does Brother Gu have to search before he can believe it?" ”
Gu Debiao grinned and said: "Where, where, I'm just worried that Di Jia's girl's family will suffer a loss when she is alone, and the military camp is so big, and she is the granddaughter of the marshal, it is inevitable that there will be such a good thing to meddle in things, and I naturally trust your uncles." ”
I sneered: "So you can't believe me, the fifth brother?" ”
Gu Debiao hurriedly slapped his mouth and said with a smile: "Look at my clumsy cheeks, I don't mean this, anyway, the old lady has already agreed to our marriage, Di Jia is also a child's surname, and she will go home after making trouble, I am completely relieved." ”
Shi Cun said: "This is natural, our historian will definitely give an explanation to the Taishi." ”
Gu Debiao said: "Thank you, thank you, that kid will retire for the time being." ”
Shi Cundao watched him walk away, and then muttered: "This Gu Debiao has a needle hidden in it, we used to look away." ”
Stilyan said, "What is grandfather going to do?" ”
Shi Cun said: "I have already said it, since I have agreed to his marriage with Di Jia, then I have to keep my word, the Gu family is deeply trusted by the emperor, which can be seen from letting Gu Debiao pass on the holy decree on his behalf, and Gu Taishi has the first-hand intelligence source of Hejis, so he can't offend him at this time." When Shi Cundao said this, his eyes looked at me vigorously.
Bringing up the old matter again, I spread my hands helplessly: "You have the final say on this matter, I don't care!" ”
Shi Cundao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that I would be awkward, and personally sent me outside the gate: "Goro, your future brother-in-law still has a few words to say - don't underestimate the reward given to you by the emperor, the golden food is all hidden things, the focus is on the saddle." ”
"What does a saddle mean?"
Shi Cun said: "Originally, I couldn't explain anything, but the emperor gave you a saddle and rewarded your grandfather with a pair of chariots, and you didn't realize anything when you compare the two?" ”
"Nope."
"Hehe, the royal gift, grandpa, I don't have to ride on a horse and be exposed to the wind in the future, doesn't this mean that Marshal Shi is old and should sit back and enjoy it? Give you a saddle, your status in the army in the future is second only to the emperor, the emperor's intention to our grandfather and grandson to hand over the handsome seal has been clear, as for the title and rank, it is not just a game between your monarchs and ministers, the emperor does not promote you to the official is afraid that you will not be rewarded for your meritorious service in the future. ”
I frowned and said, "Why do you always make simple things so complicated?" ”
Shi Cundao smiled and said, "When you reach my age, you will naturally understand everything." ”
"Is there no negotiation about Dija?"
Shi Cundao's face changed and said: "Yes, grandpa is also doing this for your own good, you need such a strong reinforcement from the Gu family in the future......"
I waved my hand and said, "Okay, then let's do it." "With that, I waved my horsewhip and took Zhang Shilei and the others away.
We chose the road to rush to the Thorn History Mansion, the last time I came to Xinzhou, Shi Dijia and Green Calyx had walked with me, and then I settled in Li Jian's Thorn History Mansion, since the two girls have been known to have run away from home, there is no need to hide it, I asked for the surname to entrust Li Jian, this time Li Jian treated them like his granddaughters, and the two girls did not suffer much.
I dismounted at the door, and when I saw Shi Dijia, the first thing I said asked: "Sister, did you run away from home because you wanted to make trouble with your family and finally plan to go back, or did you die and not marry Gu Debiao?" ”
Shi Dijia said resolutely: "I won't marry Gu Debiao if I die!" ”
"Then come with me."
Green Calyx said on the side: "Is the old lady finally willing to let the young lady go back?" ”
"The old lady asked the young lady to go back to marry Gu Debiao, there is no room for maneuver in this matter."
"Huh?" Green Calyx hurriedly said, "Then you should find a way, now only the young master can save the young lady." ”
I said, "So tell you to come with me quickly, Gu Debiao already knows your whereabouts, and he went to grandpa just now to ask for someone." ”
Stegal said, "This big horse monkey is so hateful! ”
Green Calyx said: "You go and beg the old lady again, they all say that the old lady will give you three points of face now......"
"It's useless, I can guarantee that you won't be able to save a lifetime for a while, grandpa is determined to promote this family business, and when they react, I'm afraid they will soon come to the assassination mansion to get people, and then it's too late to say anything."
Green Calyx was stunned for a moment and said, "I'll go pack my luggage." ”
Shi Dijia said: "You don't have to bring anything, let's just follow the fifth brother." ”
I glanced at her appreciatively, smiled and asked her, "You don't want to ask where the fifth brother is taking you?" ”
Only then did Stiga say, "Where are you going?" ”
"Didn't you always want to see Su Jing?"
Green Calyx said: "Oh, what did Su Jing see when this person's life was at stake, it was only right to find a place to hide." ”
Shi Dijia said: "The fifth brother said to go wherever he wanted!" ”
"Let's go, then."
Stitcha walked to the door and suddenly stopped and said, "Do you need to disguise yourself?" ”
"No need, anyway, everyone can see that I took you away, who is disguised to show you?"
Shi Dijia worried: "Then when grandpa asks, won't the fifth brother be implicated?" ”
I smiled and said: "At this time and that time, the last thing that the fifth brother is afraid of now is being implicated, grandpa he doesn't dare to do anything to me!" ”
Shi Dijia hesitated for a moment, stomped his feet and said, "Thank you, Fifth Brother!" ”
I took two girls and asked Zhang Shilei to open the way in front and went straight to the Feifeng Army camp.
There are not a few people in the Feifeng Army who know me, I heard that I want to meet the general in private, so naturally I came all the way outside the tent of the Chinese army, my mother and Su Jing heard that I was going and returned, and they took it out together, I winked at Su Jing and said, "I will introduce you to two fans." ”
Seeing Su Jing at first glance, the green calyx touched his head and hesitated, "Su Jianshen...... I think I've seen it. ”
Su Jing couldn't help but laugh when he saw her confused appearance: "Maybe." ”
Shi Dijia said: "I can't imagine that Sister Su is so beautiful in addition to martial arts!" ”
Su Jingyan said: "You are also beautiful. ”
I touched Shi Dijia with my shoulder and said, "It is also necessary for you to get to know this person next to Su Jianshen, she is the general Zhao Fanghua of the daughter country." As I spoke, I squeezed my eyes at Stitcha.
Shi Dijia was smart and clever, and at this time she was even more blessed to her heart, and suddenly knelt on the ground and said: "The little girl is desperate, please take the general in!" ”
I slept at noon and had a dream, dreaming that British Prime Minister Cameron went to meet the head of an Eastern European country, and the location was on the other party's special plane, but Cameron drank too much because of entertainment, and saw the head of state incoherently, and also patted his chest and pretended to be heroic, saying that he wanted to give the right to host the London Olympics to the country, and the head of state knew that it would not be possible to talk today, so he sent an official like an uncle next door to send Cameron out, and said empathetically all the way It doesn't matter, it's normal for young people to be like this, let's talk about it another day. As a result, Obama, who accompanied Cameron, was very embarrassed, and followed Cameron off the plane in disgrace, covered his face on the gangway and said: This is a trouble, and one person was lost...... I think this dream is a good illustration of pre-holiday syndrome.
