Gentleman: Five
was helped out of the door of the imperial historian's house, Zong Luo still felt like a dream, the biggest problem that had been blocking her heart all along, was actually solved very easily by this husband who was found at random.
At the beginning of the year, when Nawu Changcai went to Qingzhou to play, he heard her reputation from somewhere, so he specially went to find her uncles in the clan, wanting to give some money and take her back to be a concubine. The eldest mother and brother disagree with this matter, but many elders in the clan think that it is an extremely cost-effective thing to use her girl, a girl with dead parents, to climb the high branches of the imperial history, and after she gets married, the golden autumn dart game that she has worked hard to take care of, and the thriving business will fall into the hands of the uncles.
Later, Zong Luo discussed with her brother that the only way to solve this matter at the moment was to let her find someone to marry in advance, but most of the people in Qingzhou City heard about her and the prince of Yushi, so no one was willing to marry her, for fear of offending Lord Yushi because of this. Zong Luo didn't have a favorite candidate in his heart at the moment, so the brother and sister worked together to find a good Lang Jun from a foreign country, and when the time came, the raw rice was cooked and cooked, so that person could be a son-in-law, which could not only keep the dart game, but also push the family affairs of the martial arts Changcai.
After receiving the dart that sold the jewelry shopkeeper, Zong Luo heard that he was going to pass through the capital, and there was some drumming in her heart at that time, because she knew that Wu Changcai was in the capital, if the two met, I am afraid that it would be difficult for her to escape, but Zong Luo then comforted herself, the capital is several times larger than Qingzhou City, and it is not easy to meet a person in Qingzhou City, let alone the huge capital, so she relaxed, Zong Luo took this dart and went on the road.
But Zong Luo never expected that before leaving, she had secretly let the rumors spread and let several uncles know that she had chosen a husband, but she didn't expect that the uncle who was connected to her blood would write a letter to Wu Changcai to inform her whereabouts at the same time as she left.
When she met Wu Changcai again in Beijing, Zong Luo knew that perhaps, she would not be able to escape after all.
But she never expected that Xiao Tong, who was separated by 108,000 miles from her expectations, would become the last straw for her to "save her life", no, it should be a "big ship".
When he first arrived in the capital, Xiao Tong actually discussed with her in a good voice, saying that there were acquaintances in Beijing and wanted to visit, Zong Luo felt that he was a scholar in green clothes and shirts walking on the official road, and he could have any acquaintances in Beijing, even if there were, he must have the heart to escape from this marriage, and she was in a hurry to leave the capital This place of right and wrong, so she denied his opinion, until Wu Changcai's people came to the door and completely offended him, Zong Luo thought about it for Xiao Tong, felt that it was enough to drag him to be a door-to-door son-in-law who didn't worry about food and clothing, and if he dragged him to prison together, he would not be able to live with him.
But she didn't want to, she couldn't escape, and Xiao Tong didn't run away, but went to find his acquaintances in Beijing for help. Zong Luo didn't know that this Xiao Tong acquaintance actually had great ability, and when she came out of the Imperial History Mansion, the seal in front of the Imperial History Mansion would be pasted. Xiao Tong looked at her with a smile as usual, gently half-supporting and half-holding, before Zong Luo felt that his smile was just adding a little color to the good-looking skin, harmless to humans and animals, but he didn't want to, he was actually a master who pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger.
When he went out, the carriage was ready, and the middle-aged appearance of the person in front of the car, but he was full of spirit, Xiao Tong's mouth was sweet, and he called out extremely politely, "Uncle Xu Cheng." ”
Xu Cheng nodded with a smile, and when he opened the curtain and helped Xiao Tong to help Zong Luo into the carriage, he whispered: "Xiao Xiaogongzi, my master asked you, when are you going to take office?" ”
Xiao Tong looked at the closed curtain and said helplessly in a low voice: "Tell the teacher, don't be in a hurry, it's always fast." ”
Xu Cheng frowned, but said hurriedly: "Little boy, you have been talking about this for about three years. ”
Xiao Tong picked up the hem of his clothes and prepared to get on the horse, turned back to Xu Cheng and said aggrievedly: "Uncle always thinks that my wife is not in good health, and I want to take my wife to play in the mountains and rivers, and I have to pity me as a nephew first. ”
Xu Chenggang was about to continue the advice, but when he saw Xiao Tongyi bowing his head and getting into the carriage, he had to shake his head helplessly, knowing when this prince called the "teacher" as an uncle and the "disciple" as a nephew, that is, he was going to start a serious trick.
Xiao Tong got into the carriage, and Zong Luo's first question was, "Are the guys okay?" ”
Xiao Tong looked at the position, sat next to Zong Luo, and nodded: "It's all right, I've arranged to go back to the inn." ”
Zong Luo's worries were put down, and then he put his eyes on Xiao Tong seriously, and asked, "What does your acquaintance do?" ”
Xiao Tong thought about it and concluded: "You have to see which one, the one who helped us today, speaking of which he has a lot of things, he has to take care of any firewood, rice, oil and salt between the neighbors." ”
Zong Luo was suspicious: "Even this dignified imperial historian in the middle of the capital has to be taken care of?" ”
"It's really a coincidence, and I blame Nawu Yushi for being corrupt, accumulating deep public grievances, and conniving at his son to rob the people's daughters and be domineering, and now the human and material evidence is complete, and he has suffered karma."
Zong Luo was silent for a moment, looking at Xiao Tong's eyes, which were clear and translucent without cunning, but he could concentrate carefully, but found that his eyes that were always smiling and shallow were as deep as a quiet sea, and like a June sky, behind the bright galaxy, the distant sky.
"Who the hell are you?" Zong Luo's question was not very malicious, but it was also loud.
Xiao Tong was still as usual, only took out the pumpkin hammer from the side, knowing that this was Zong Luo's favorite thing, he handed it to her, and said truthfully: "I am a scholar in Qingyunling, I was born in the family of princes and generals, and I am not the son of a famous family, I have always been Xiao Tong." ”
Zong Luo felt that what Xiao Tong said was not false, but he was surprised in his heart, why a small scholar from such a small place as Qingyunling had a relationship with the powerful in Beijing, and listening to his conversation with the person outside, it seemed that there was some kind of extremely intimate connection.
Xiao Tong himself had a lot of thoughts, so he naturally saw Zong Luo's doubts, so he sighed, and explained helplessly: "My father was a character when he was young, but he had a bad vision and fell in love with my mother, so the future was delayed again and again, and he was degraded again and again, and finally he was the overlord of one side, and he could only play prestige in front of me and Black Beans until now." ”
Zong Luo thought it was funny, so he snorted and laughed, and sighed: "How can you say that about your mother's mother?" You can get your father's love, maybe it's because of her own gentleness and kindness. ”
Xiao Tong thought about the word in his ear to describe his mother, and felt a cold sweat rise in his heart, so he had to shake his head and say, "Absolutely not." ”
"Perhaps, it's her who has captivated the country and the city?"
Xiao Tong pondered it carefully, and felt that this word was also appropriate, so he nodded lightly.
Zong Luo was not surprised, just because he looked at Xiao Tong, he would definitely be able to think of what his parents would look like, but as soon as he explained it to himself in his heart, he heard Xiao Tong say very seriously: "If you make my mother unhappy, it can indeed be tossed in the world. ”
Zong Luo was stunned, this "tilt" is not the other "tilt"!
Along the way, for no reason, the two said a lot of confidant words for the first time, and after a careful exchange, Zong Luo felt that Xiao Tong was very interesting, and even the story of his parents and Qingyunling that he told was also very interesting, and even made her feel a little yearning, and she silently thought and accepted that a person like Xiao Tong should be her husband, and she should be the one who will support and help each other and accompany her for the rest of her life.
At the end, the carriage and horse sent the two to the inn, and walked into a room again, Zong Luo looked at Xiao Tong, and felt a little embarrassed, Seeing that Xiao Tong went to make the bed very naturally, he asked embarrassedly: "With your connections, it is not impossible to get rid of me at the beginning, why do you want to stay and be controlled by me?" ”
Xiao Tong took it for granted, and said seriously: "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase, since you promised your brother to consider this marriage, you have to stay and feel it carefully, so as to know whether it is suitable or not." ”
Zong Luo recalled the first incident, his face turned red, full of courage, and said truthfully: "Actually, at the beginning, it was the eldest brother who put medicine in your wine, which caused you to pass out, not ......" Zong Luo lowered his head a little and whispered: "It's not that you were drunk and did bad things to me, so if you don't want to, you can leave on your own, and we are to blame for this matter." ”
Xiao Tong shook his head and said firmly: "No matter what the reason, it is a fact that you and I share the same bed, so this marriage should be decided." ”
Zong Luo raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, "You agreed?" ”
Xiao Tong looked at the pumpkin hammer that Zong Luo held in his hand, and said a little innocently: "I don't seem to have objected." ”
Zong Luo put down the hammer in his hand, made a decision, and said to Xiao Tong: "When this dart is over, we will go back to get married." ”
The corners of Xiao Tong's lips hooked up slightly, but he responded indifferently on his face, "Okay." ”
Zong Luo said: "With a character like you, you will definitely not be a son-in-law, but it doesn't matter, I don't think you will interfere in the affairs of my dart game, but for the sake of the dart game, the banquet will also be set up in Qingzhou." ”
"Nature." Xiao Tong nodded, "Not only Qingzhou, Qingyunling, the capital, but also the border pass must be put on the table." ”
"Why?" At this time, Zi Zongluo was very puzzled.
Xiao Tong said: "I'm not as wealthy and wealthy as a lady, so I set up a banquet everywhere and collect some gift money for my future life." ”
