Chapter 242: Marriage Contract
The shepherd wolf was still a little apprehensive in his heart, because he was not sure what decision the Queen Mother would make.
When the shepherd wolf came to the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, Song Guogong He Xingduan and the county lord of Dangyang were there, and even the two sworn enemies, the seventh princess and the fifth princess, were actually there.
"The last general shepherd wolf sees the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is a thousand years old!"
The Queen Mother said: "General Mu is exempt, the mourning family called you, you should also understand the reason." Qiang girl's life is hard, her mother went early, it can be said that the mourning family grew up watching it single-handedly, although the male should get married, the female should marry, but when it comes to marrying the girl, the mourning family's heart is like a knife cut......"
The shepherd wolf really didn't know how to take the Queen Mother's words......
Fortunately, the county host was spiritual, and he was busy holding one of the queen mother's arms and said: "If the ancestor is unwilling to marry Qiang'er, Qiang'er will never marry, stay with the ancestor, and serve the left and right at all times." ”
The county lord is a typical retreat, but he startled the upright shepherd wolf, and hurriedly looked up at the queen mother, this old queen mother really agrees!
Fortunately, the queen mother was not so tiger, patted the county lord's hand, and said angrily: "You girl, what nonsense are you talking about!" If the mourning family does such a selfish thing, one day the soul will return to the nine shadows, how to see your hard-working mother! If you marry, you will definitely marry......"
The shepherd finally breathed a sigh of relief......
The Queen Mother looked at the shepherd wolf in front of her, and then said, "But ...... This vision of your father and daughter ......"
He Xing hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, you don't have to be embarrassed, although it is said that it is the order of your parents and the words of the matchmaker, but Qiang'er was brought up by your old man, and you look at it and make a decision." If you are not satisfied, you can veto it, and you don't have to worry about the opinions of the old minister! ”
He Xingduan was afraid that the Queen Mother would really let go of Chrysostom, he was forced by the situation at that time, and he had to say that he was very satisfied with the shepherd wolf, but now no one forced him, he wanted to regret it!
But when He Xingduan heard the Queen Mother's words, it was as if if he didn't agree, he would be arbitrary and unreasonable. So He Xingduan's words had the opposite effect, and the Queen Mother thought that He Xingduan was fighting his own army!
The Queen Mother said: "Okay! The mourning family still doesn't understand what you mean? Besides, this shepherd wolf did find a clue, defeated the thief, and saved Qiang'er, even if he passed the test of the mourning family, the mourning family can't break its promise......"
The Queen Mother didn't know what the specific test was, and the version she knew was cut by the second prince and the fifth princess.
When the fifth princess learned that the shepherd wolf was not dead, the stone hanging in her heart finally fell, but when she thought that the shepherd wolf had passed the test and was going to marry the county lord, she felt unwilling! That's why she hurried to Cining Palace to see if she could find a chance to sabotage it......
Seeing that the Queen Mother was about to make a final decision, the fifth princess spoke: "Imperial grandmother, today is Xinwei's eighteenth birthday, right?" You see, Mei'er is almost nineteen years old, and she hasn't married yet, so Xinwei doesn't have to worry! Besides, seeing that the Northern Expedition is imminent, a minister like General Mu must be going to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, how can he delay the major affairs of the country because of his children's personal feelings! I see, this marriage is not in a hurry for the time being, it is better to wait for Xinwei to be a little older, and the Northern Expedition is over, and it is not too late. ”
Regarding the fifth princess's remarks, the county lord himself must not be able to say anything, but the seventh princess said: "Fifth sister, you are a little unreasonable, right?" Who is to blame if you can't get married? Could it be that if you don't get married one day, all of us who are sisters will have to wait for you? And the two of them are in love, and General Mu has passed the test of the ancestors, do you want to trap the ancestors in injustice? ”
The fifth princess knew that she was at a loss, so she could only retreat and said: "Oh, I naturally didn't mean that, I mean, the marriage contract can be set, but the marriage is not in a hurry, after all, Sister Xinwei's marriage can't be hasty, otherwise there will be no light on the ancestor's face!" When the Northern Expedition is over, General Mu triumphantly, and then marry Xinwei in the scenery, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds, double happiness! ”
He Xingduan also said: "The fifth princess is reasonable, the boy is alive, he should serve the country first, and his fame is important!" Dating back to ancient times, General Hou Huo, the world's champion of the world, once said, 'The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home!' This is the true nature of a man! If General Mu returns from the Northern Expedition, becomes famous, and then marries a little girl, it will definitely be a good story in the capital! ”
The Queen Mother said: "Well, you, the public said that the public was reasonable, the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was reasonable, and the mourning family also had a headache when they heard it, but this general Mu didn't say a word!" General Mu, tell me, what do you think? ”
The shepherd wolf is not so promising, he only wants to marry the county lord. "Empress Dowager Qiyu, when the last general was seventeen years old, she had already led her troops to destroy the Huns, and dedicated the head of the Huns Shan Yu to Your Majesty. Moreover, according to His Majesty's will, the last general will not participate in the Northern Expedition......"
When the people heard this, this ...... The shepherd wolf doesn't seem to play its cards according to common sense! This hat of loyalty to the country has been buttoned up, why do you still care about the private affairs of your children? Shouldn't you say righteously and awe-inspiringly: The last general is willing to put the country before the family, and vow not to marry a wife if he does not destroy the Yan country?
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, and said disappointedly: "It seems that General Mu is thinking about ......" The county lord hurriedly said: "Don't misunderstand, Ancestor, General Mu didn't mean to express his position, he was just stating some facts, in fact, he must want to put the country before the family in his heart!" ”
There are a lot of question marks in the heart of the shepherd, and I am just expressing my position! When did I say I was going to put my country before my family?
The Queen Mother said: "Oh? General Mu, is that so? ”
Seeing the county lord hinting frantically on the side, the shepherd wolf had no choice but to say: "Everything is subject to the arrangement of the queen mother." ”
The Queen Mother said: "Well, since that's the case, let's make a marriage contract first, anyway, General Mu doesn't have any relatives, so it's all up to him." Then make an appointment, when the empire collapses the Yan Kingdom and dominates the north, that is, when you and Qiang'er get married. The mourning family will also inform the emperor of this matter and let him tell the world. ”
Shepherd Sky Wolf said: "The last general thanked the Queen Mother for her marriage!" It's all up to the Queen Mother! ”
Finally, the matter is over, although the result is not satisfactory, but at least the marriage contract is set, and the shepherd wolf can also accept it. Anyway, Yan Guo won't last long......
The Queen Mother announced the end of the marriage contract, and the shepherd wolf withdrew, and he still had to go to Qinli Zhai to have a look......
And the fifth princess felt in her heart that only if she hadn't finished getting married, she would have the opportunity to sabotage again! It's just a marriage contract, but it's not that you can't break it......
He Xingduan also had the same idea in his heart, he felt that with the shepherd wolf being so unscrupulous and making countless enemies, it was unknown whether he could survive until the success of the Northern Expedition!
And the county lord didn't want the shepherd wolf to bear a reputation of heavy personal feelings and light righteousness, anyway, he made a marriage contract, and he was not in a hurry.
Only the seventh princess was indignant, "Hmph, I don't have anyone to ask for it, I can't get married, so I make a hindrance from it, and I can't see the good of others!" Long Xinmei, you wait, I won't let you have a good time! "The seventh princess, who has never known what forbearance is, is ready to take revenge on the fifth princess......
The shepherd wolf came out of the Cining Palace, and happened to meet the thirteenth who came in a hurry, and the thirteenth saw the shepherd wolf and said, "I thought of it!" ”
The few eunuchs and palace maids who followed behind the thirteen said breathlessly: "Little ancestor, you run slowly, if you fall, the minions will lose their heads!" ”
The shepherd wolf said, "What do you think of?" ”
Thirteen said happily: "I remember, the old man once said that he buried a treasure under the pear tree in Qinli Zhai!" I forgot about this later, Brother Tianwolf, let's go to Qinli Zhai to dig up treasures! Hey, speaking of the old man, I don't seem to have seen him since I came back from Bohai County......"
The shepherd wolf said: "The old man went to find the treasure, and it is estimated that he will not come back if he can't find it." But the stakes are too high for too many people to know. ”
Of course, the clever Thirteen of Bing Xue understood what the Heavenly Wolf meant, and turned to the eunuch and the palace maid and said, "You don't have to follow me, I'm going to find the treasure!" After speaking, he followed the shepherd wolf to Qinli Zhai.
The two of them were familiar with the road, and climbed over the wall to enter Qinli Zhai, all of which were naturally seen clearly by the hidden guards and the masters of the Internal Affairs Office. But the shepherd wolf didn't care, he wasn't afraid that the emperor would know, anyway, there was thirteen as a shield!
After the two landed, they found that there was a thick layer of snow in the yard, and because no one had cleaned it or stepped on it, the snow had not melted.
Thirteen suddenly said: "It's broken, I forgot to take the shovel!" Can't dig ......"
The shepherd wolf said: "It's okay, the treasure will be dug later, I just want to come in and sit." Even if there was a shovel, the shepherd wolf didn't dare to really dig up the treasure in Qinli Zhai, although he also wanted to know what Hua Nian had left here...... Thirteen can mess around, but he can't, at most he just watches Thirteen mess around.
The shepherd cleared the snow from the stone bench, sat down, and felt everything in this courtyard, was the former owner of this courtyard his mother?
Thirteen was puzzled: "Why does Brother Sky Wolf like to sit here?" ”
But the shepherd wolf said, "Isn't this courtyard too deserted?" Thirteen nodded his head and said, "Yes, yes, you see that there is such a thick snow, and no one has cleaned it!" ”
The shepherd wolf said: "This snow is also clean, just so we can build a snowman." ”
Thirteen: "Okay, good, so much snow is enough for us to build a big snowman!" Let's roll a big snowball with some dead branches under the tree that will be used to make the snowman's arms, and then pick up a few pebbles and insert them to make eyes, nose and mouth! ”
The shepherd said, "Okay, I'll roll the snowball, and you go pick up some branches and pebbles." ”
Thirteen farts ran to pick it up, and the wolf had a condensed breath in his hand, and the snow on the ground continued to fly into the air with the wolf's movements, gathering together one by one, and when Thirteen picked up the pebbles and branches, the two snowballs, one large and one small, had been completed......
"Wow, Brother Sirius, how did you roll out such a smooth and beautiful snowball? In the past, the snowballs rolled by those eunuchs were very rough. ”
The shepherd wolf said: "Come, put on his arms and facial features!" Thirteen: "Leave it to me!" But a hat is missing......"
"I brought the hat." With these words, the courtyard door of Qin Lizhai opened, and the Son of Heaven Long Xing walked in, followed by Zheng Jun......
