Chapter 373: Kissing
Shan Yu is about to marry Princess Fangde, and in the whole camp, Zhou Yuanbin is the most anxious person, looking around for news, trying every means to try to prevent this unexpected marriage, but he is too timid, he only dares to walk around among his relatives, knocking on the side, and has never dared to admonish Shan Yu in person.
After wasting more than half a day, seeing that the team that went to Yuyang to welcome his relatives was about to return, Zhou Yuanbin had to come to Xu Ji again.
"It's unfortunate." Zhou Yuanbin pretended to be sympathetic, as if he had never been in a hurry about this matter, "There is news again, saying that Princess Fangde has been received and is on the way back, and he will definitely be able to rush back to the camp before dark." Alas, they will get married tomorrow, even for He Rongren, this is too hasty, too hasty, and only ...... I really didn't take the princess seriously. β
"Time has changed, the Tiancheng Imperial Court is still breathing, and if you ask for it from He Rongbu, you won't pay too much attention to it."
"Xu Gongzi is not in a hurry at all?"
"When there is a way and you can't use it, you should be anxious, and when you are helpless, it is useless to be anxious."
"Hehe, I don't believe it." Zhou Yuanbin sat opposite and stared at Xu Ji, "Xu Gongzi already has a clever plan in his heart, right?" Before leaving, Mr. Liu told me that Xu Gongzi could be trusted, so that I could discuss with Xu Gongzi when I was unable to make a decision......"
"But you didn't come until now."
Zhou Yuanbin's eyes widened, "This wronged me, I came twice last night, Xu Gongzi doesn't remember?" Or I'm the first to inform you of the change in events. In the daytime, I wanted not to trouble Xu Gongzi first, but after looking for a circle of people, no one dared to persuade Shan Yu, but they all felt that it was a good idea for Shan Yu to marry the princess. β
"Shan Yu's wife thinks so too?"
"Seventh Sister...... I really can't figure her out now, before she persuaded Shan Yu to cancel the marriage between Pingshan and the princess, and when Shan Yu wanted to marry, she refused to persuade again, in front of Shan Yu, full of approval, and said that she wanted to get along with the princess and be like sisters in the future. Alas, other people's affairs can be persuaded, but their own affairs cannot be persuaded. β
"The reason why Zhou joined the army and couldn't figure it out was very simple."
"How?"
"Zhou Senjun thought that Shan Yu's wife's 'own family' was the Zhou family and the Shen family, but in fact, Shan Yu and his two sons."
Zhou Yuanbin smiled: "This is not right, without the backing of her mother's family, why should the seventh sister ......" The smile on Zhou Yuanbin's face gradually disappeared, "This is a thing of the past, and now the seventh sister no longer needs backing, but it is a burden to be a mother's family, but ...... But there's always family affection, right? The seventh sister's family still lives in Jinyang, she doesn't help me, what kind of face do she have to interact with her family again? β
Xu Ji just laughed, feeling that there was no need to answer.
Zhou Yuanbin shook his head and temporarily shook off the doubts in his heart, "Don't talk about the seventh sister, does Xu Gongzi have a way?" You must have someone Mr. Liu believes in, and you will never be wrong. β
"Hmm...... Tomorrow we will get married. β
"yes, if you don't do anything, the raw rice will be cooked. Originally, I didn't really believe that Shan Yuzhen would fall to Tiancheng, but now it seems to be true! The person who secretly pushed it turned out to be the seventh sister! Zhou Yuanbin still felt incredible.
"Time is of the essence."
"It's very urgent."
"There is only one thing for Zhou to join the army."
"What?"
"Go and persuade Shan Yu to do a big job, since the marriage is in a hurry, you must make up for it in the pomp."
Zhou Yuanbin felt that he had been poured a basin of cold water on his head, stayed for a while, and said, "Xu Gongzi is joking with me, right?" β
Xu Ji shook his head, "At this time, how can I be in the mood to joke?" β
"I've come to ask for a clever way to stop the marriage, but you're going to 'make a big deal'?"
"Have you ever seen Shan Yu?"
"Uh, no, I haven't figured out how to persuade yet, so I came to Xu Gongzi."
"Zhou joined the army and didn't dare to advise Shan Yu."
"That...... It's not that I don't dare, it's that the camp is full of people who don't dare. β
"Do you dare to persuade the order to do a big job?"
"This is something that makes Shan Yu happy, why don't you dare...... Oh, what does Xu Gongzi mean to at least follow Shan Yu first? β
"Yes."
Zhou Yuanbin smiled, "It's a good idea, and then what?" How do I change the subject after I have won the favor? β
"You don't have to change."
"Huh?" Zhou Yuanbin was confused again.
"Zhou joined the army to discourage marriage, is it for himself?"
"Of course not, I don't know the princess."
"For me?"
"Uh...... Sort of-Xu Gongzi asked knowingly, I am for the Shen family and the king of Jin. β
"In this case, Zhou Senjun only needs to say something in front of Shan Yu, so that outsiders think that you have made a persuasion, it is enough, why give up the easy and difficult, and have to prevent the marriage?"
Zhou Senjun was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I am not surprised that Mr. Liu came up with such an idea, Xu Gongzi...... Hehe, I'm not that kind of person, is there any other way for Xu Gongzi? Analyze the pros and cons, weigh the pros and cons, and let Shan Yu wake up and form an alliance with the Shen family is the best choice. β
"He Rongbu intends to win the Central Plains, Shan Yu has this heart, and an alliance with Tiancheng is the only choice, the more you persuade, the more firm Shan Yu will be, this so-called persuasion cannot be persuaded."
"As a minister, you should do your best when you encounter problems, knowing that it is impossible to persuade, and if it is difficult to persuade, I will also persuade you. Although Tiancheng has the name of the emperor, it is capricious and not worth believing, the Shen family and He Rong have been intermarried for decades, and they are like a family, this is what I want to say to Shan Yu. I won't bother Xu Gongzi anymore, and I will take my leave. β
Zhou Yuanbin left with his head held high, to be a "loyal minister" and "counselor", but Xu Ji understood very well in his heart that Zhou Yuanbin would definitely follow his own instructions and pretend to advise, which was actually flattery.
In the eyes of outsiders, Xu Ji is calm and calm, and he doesn't seem to take the marriage to heart at all, in fact, he is more anxious than anyone else, he is waiting for a news, but it has not shown signs of coming.
According to Liu Youzhong, he should have joined the Jin King who was rushing yesterday and persuaded him to return to the state as soon as possible, lead his troops out of the fortress, and sneak attack He Rongbu's lair.
If King Jin is really moved, the news should be quickly transmitted to He Rong's department.
When persuading Liu Youzhong, there was one thing that Xu Ji cautiously did not mention, but he believed that with the wisdom of the King of Jin, he would definitely be able to figure it out: the Jin army did not have to really go out of the fortress, that would put Jinyang's hometown in danger, and the best result would be a defeat for both sides.
Shan Yu's cavalry was too tempting and too terrifying, and no one wanted to really turn against him.
But the news has not come, Chang Yanzhi often inquired, and every time he comes back, he shakes his head.
This time, Chang Yanzhi finally brought back the news, but it was not good news, "The team to welcome the relatives is back, everyone goes to watch, it is said that Shan Yu wants to let the princess get out of the car, walk into the account, and show her beauty in public." Shan Yu is really ...... I didn't take the little county lord seriously. β
Chang Yanzhi is used to the title of "little county lord", and it often pops up.
"This is the idea of the eldest wife." Xu Ji whispered.
A servant lifted the curtain and said coldly, "King Zuo Shenwei wants you to go." β
Xu Ji was taken to the gate of the camp, He Rongpingshan and a group of adults were also there, he turned around and said, "I'll let you meet with the princess later." β
Xu Ji was silent, wondering in his heart what he could do, if the news of the exit from the fortress did not come for a long time, or the King of Jin had another idea, the only means he could use was the death of Lao Shan Yu, which was not a good move, if he spread rumors in the camp, although he could embarrass Qiang Shan Yu, but he would also put himself in a place of death......
At least there is one night to wait, Xu Ji can only comfort himself like this.
Emperor Zhang Shiyu stood opposite, side by side with Shan Yu, surrounded by Lord He Rongbu, the smile on his face was a little stiff, not for his sister, but for himself, in his mind, the emperor should be the emperor of all things, no matter who he walked into, he could naturally pose as a master, but now he has to mix with a group of vulgar aliens, don't say "master", not even "distinguished guests".
Kou Daogu stood behind Shan Yu, he was tall, he didn't have to tiptoe, he could show most of his face, and when he saw Xu Ji, he nodded slightly.
It was getting dark, the camps were already lit with torches, and the people on both sides of the passage wanted to see Princess Fonde's true face, their curiosity aroused by the description of Guan Daogu, and their desperate need to be satisfied.
The procession of welcoming relatives appeared on the road, and the precursor cavalry arrived in droves, announcing that the princess was coming, and each time it caused a tsunami of cheers.
Although it was the princess who greeted her, there were more than 20 carriages, and all that was left was a dowry, except for the people.
Zhang Shiyu saw the convoy in the twilight from afar, and breathed a sigh of relief, he was really worried that his sister would insist on going her own way, embarrassing him by putting on a cold face because she was forced, and the long convoy seemed to indicate that she had accepted her fate.
"The emperor is not free, let alone you?" Zhang Shiyu silently persuaded in his heart, planning to find a chance to meet his sister in private, one is to comfort, and the other is to persuade her to please Shan Yu and help him, the unlucky emperor's brother.
The convoy stopped, and Strongarm Shan whispered, again cheering, and then strode to the car, to personally ask the princess to get out of the car.
The escorts around the vehicle retreated one after another, they were all Yuyang officers and soldiers, and they didn't dare to watch, while He Rongren, who was a little farther away, tried to squeeze forward, hoping to see the princess at a glance earlier.
Qiang Arm Shan Yu walked to the back of the car, coughed, raised his hand to lift the curtain, and looked at it seriously for a while, his face was expressionless, and no one could tell whether he was satisfied or disappointed.
Shan Yu lowered the curtain, glanced at the emperor, and then looked at the adults, it seemed that there was something difficult to decide.
Could it be that my sister deliberately dressed up ugly to provoke Shan Yu? Zhang Shiyu's heart jumped suddenly, and he hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to explain, "The princess is still young......
Shan Yu raised his hand to stop the emperor from coming, then lifted the curtain again, leaned in, and dragged a person out of the car, not "please" or "hug".
The people around didn't see it clearly at first, and felt that the princess was a little stiff, and it wasn't until Shan Yu lifted the "princess" high that they recognized that it was not a real person, but a papier-mΓ’chΓ© human form, with a face full of pink and delicate, quite charming.
Zhang Shiyu sighed, took two steps back, and almost fell.
Xu Ji was also surprised, he knew that Princess Fangde was bold, but it was so big that it was still beyond his expectations.
Strong arm is only loud to speak, angry and excited.
He Rongpingshan turned his head to Xu Ji and said: "The army will set off immediately, and set foot in Yuyang City tomorrow morning, and there will be no chickens and dogs." β
