Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Cruel One

But what about Xu Yourong?

What did Xu Yourong think of herself, but Xu Youshan and the three of them didn't ask her. Because Xu Yourong had answered this kind of question too many times, the other three people no longer wanted to ask her these questions.

Therefore, everyone takes it for granted that Xu Mingwen is more than Xu Yourong, the eldest daughter of the Xu family, and will marry first, which is normal.

As for Zhai Yu, Xu Youshan and the three of them had already inquired clearly.

Zhai Yu, who is twenty-three this year, is the eldest son of Zhai Yan, the eldest grandson of Zhai Ran, the old man of the Zhai family, before the hunting conference, he has always followed Zhai Yan to guard the frontier, and can be described as a child who grew up in the army and a young general who has been living and death in the battlefield for a long time. And it was also when Emperor Zhou Hui was suspicious of the Zhai family, after the Zhai family returned the military power, he was ordered by his father to follow the old man of the Zhai family, Zhai Ran, and the old lady Wen to retreat back to Huanchuan.

It wasn't until not long ago that Zhai Ran, the old man of the Zhai family, received an urgent summons from Xu Luo, the old lady of the Xu family, and Xu Rong for 600 miles, that Zhai Yu was sent to leave Huanchuan for the first time since then and go to Beijing.

And these things, Xu Youshan and the others only inquired about them from the Pei family after returning to the imperial capital for a long time.

It turned out that long before the hunting conference, Xu Luo and the old lady Qi and others were guarding against things like what happened on the last night of the hunting conference, and it was also without Xu Youshan and the four of them knowing, in fact, these Xu family bigwigs also helped them resolve many crises caused by the two princesses and princesses, otherwise they would have relied on themselves. There are no bones left that have been eaten a long time ago.

Just like this time, if it weren't for the foresight of these bigwigs of the Xu family, they would have taken the most outstanding Zhai Yu in the younger generation of the Zhai family for insurance. Please come from Zhai Ran, the old man of the Zhai family, for fear that Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen will really suffer this time.

"But is this Zhai eldest son really so powerful? Let my grandfather and grandmother believe that as long as he comes, he will be fine. Xu Yourong once asked Pei.

"You have been in Beijing for many years, and Zhai Yu, the child, has been guarding the frontier with his grandfather and father for many years, so it is not surprising that you have not heard of his name......... It's a pity anyway. Pei remembered that Emperor Zhou Hui was suspicious of the Zhai family. sighed.

And Xu Youshan and the others also knew about this, so they were also silent with Pei's for a while. Xu Yourong asked again: "Then since this eldest son Zhai is so good, why hasn't he been married yet?" ”

Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng really wanted to match Zhai Yu and Xu Mingwen, but before they were matched, some things still had to be made clear. For example, this marriage situation is one of them. And it was also after Xu Yourong and the others went to ask Mrs. Qi and them about many things, that they learned that Zhai Yu was still not married.

This made Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng infinitely happy, but also strange.

In this era, even if men generally marry later than women, they are generally two or three years later, but Zhai Yu is twenty-three years old this year, and he is still married to five people, not to mention that he is still such a proud son of the sky. Isn't that weird?

"Nope." But Pei Shi said in a deep voice: "Zhai Yu has made a family affair...... I used to make a family appointment. ”

In addition to the Jiangzuo Xu family, the Huanchuan Zhai family also had another big family of friends who had been friends for generations. And Zhai Yu and the eldest daughter of that family were also contracted after their similar birth dates, and the two parties even signed and exchanged the marriage letter and tokens, and directly after Zhai Yu and the girl were born, their family affairs were booked.

And because of this, Zhai Yu and the girl were deliberately let by the two families to cultivate a relationship at a young age, and as the days passed, the two of them were no longer just childhood sweethearts, but both regarded each other as partners who would be with each other for a lifetime in the future.

But this was originally a good fate, Zhai Yu needless to say, in the use of soldiers, the sky is talented; And that girl is also a beautiful and beautiful woman, different from Xu Youshan, she is a standard model of gentleness and generosity, and she will definitely be a good wife in the future. Such two young people and girls happen to be interested in each other, so it should be a matter of course to achieve a good relationship.

But there are unforeseen circumstances, people have disasters and blessings, that is, when the border war that has lasted for many years finally stopped, the Huanchuan Zhai family and the girl's family were also preparing to take advantage of this good opportunity to let the marriage between Zhai Yu and the girl, which had been delayed because of the war, hurry up and make a big deal when a secret letter from Jiang Chunjin came.

The rest of the matter, there is no need to talk about it, the Huanchuan Zhai family shook up and down, and after everyone thought about it, they began to discover the meaning that Emperor Zhou Hui had unintentionally released that they had not noticed before, and after Emperor Zhou Hui's recent movements, the Zhai family was cold, but then they also made a decision.

Zhai Ran, the old man of the Zhai family, personally went to Beijing to play, indicating that he wanted to return to his hometown.

And it was also after Emperor Zhou Hui immediately approved Zhai Ran's performance, the Zhai family, except for Zhai Yan, who was transferred, began to fully return to Huanchuan, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was the beginning of the depression of the Zhai family in Huanchuan, which included the family of the girl who had a marriage contract with Zhai Yu.

"So, the girl quit the marriage?"

Hearing this, the rest of the matter couldn't be clearer, so Xu Yourong and Xu Youshan asked Pei.

"It's the divorce, but it's not the girl who quit, it's her father. …… But the girl didn't insist. ”

Just a year after almost everyone in the Zhai family retreated back to Huanchuan, after the Zhai family settled down, the old man of the Zhai family, Zhai Ran, took Zhai Yu to visit the girl's family again, and by the way, when the Zhai family was the "most leisurely", he told the girl's father about the idea of letting Zhai Yu and the girl's marriage be done, and almost all the people who were still smiling were cold-faced.

"The current situation of the Zhai family, is it a bit presumptuous to talk about the marriage between Zhai Yu and our daughter?"

As soon as the girl's father's words fell, the old man of the Zhai family became angry, and the situation at that time was instantly chaotic, who is the old man of the Zhai family? It is a warrior who has survived through countless corpses and fires, and as long as he is willing to do so, the slightest release will make those nobles who will only enjoy wealth and nobility in the grand event tremble.

So at that time, the people in the girl's family were very embarrassed, but unlike Old Man Zhai's anger, Zhai Yu calmly pulled Old Man Zhai and left, but then he made an appointment with the girl alone, and after only asking her one question, Zhai Yu took the initiative to withdraw from the marriage despite the opposition of others.

"Will you oppose your people's will to marry me?"

“……”

Sometimes, silence is a more cruel answer. (To be continued......)
