Chapter Eighty-Eight: Wooing Parties

After Qu Duan and the others left, a young man walked out of the back room!

This young man is a little weak, his face is pale, it is the eldest son Zhi Yanwen who can be begged!

Zhi Yanwen went straight to Zhi Keqiu and said, "Father, what you just said about marrying the little sister to Qu Duan's son, is it true?" ”

Zhe Keqiu nodded and said, "Not bad!" ”

Zhi Yanwen gritted his teeth and said, "Father, I heard that Qu Duan's son is mediocre and incompetent!" Although Qu Duan himself is both civil and military, his son is not literate! That's not all, his son is purely a gentleman, looking for joy in Jingyuan City every day! We had all heard of Quduan's son's notoriety when we were in Fuzhou and Tongguan before, how could we marry our little sister to Quduan's son? He doesn't deserve the little sister at all! ”

Zhe Ke begged: "In order to win over Quduan, I have to do this!" ”

Zhe Yanwen said: "In order to win him over, do you have to sacrifice your little sister?" ”

Zhe Ke begged: "If you can win it over, it's worth it!" ”

Zhi Yanwen said angrily: "Father, how can you do this? Xiaomei is a first-class talent in the world, not to mention that she is as beautiful as a flower, and she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, even those famous talented women in ancient times are far from being comparable to Xiaomei! How can you get her to marry a piece of waste? ”

"Bastard!" Zhi Keqiu snorted coldly and said: "As the daughter of the Zhi family, I naturally want to contribute to the future of the Zhi family!" If she marries a gentleman, she can exchange it for hundreds of years of years, and it is worth it! What's so great about sacrificing a daughter for the sake of breaking the family! ”

Zhi Yanwen looked at Zhi Keqiu in disbelief and said, "Father, you weren't like this before!" You love your little sister more than you love both of our brothers! You really shouldn't! ”

Zhe Ke begged: "It used to be a peaceful era, but now that the troubled times are coming, I want to think about the future of the Zhe family!" Actually, I'm thinking about you two brothers, and the family will not belong to you two brothers in the future? Why don't you understand my painstaking efforts? ”

Zhi Yanwen shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Father, I can agree to anything you do, but if you want to sacrifice your little sister, I really can't accept it!" ”

Zhe Keqiu frowned slightly and said, "You go out first!" You also heard it just now, even if I want to marry my daughter to Qu Duan's son, Qu Duan still doesn't want to accept it! With Qu Duan's current identity and strength, I don't know how many people want to win him over! I'm sure that if King Kang is older and his daughter grows up, King Kang will definitely marry his daughter to Qu Duan! With a daughter can be exchanged for an army of 100,000, who would not want to do such a cheap deal! That's it, I'm going to think about how to win over Qu Duan again! ”

Zhi Yanwen left angrily, and Zhi Keqiu stayed in the hall to continue to think about things, not to mention it.

Qu Duan, Wang Shu and others had already come to the post station at this moment, those ordinary soldiers had already rested, and Qu Duan was sitting with Wang Shu drinking tea.

Wang Shu looked at Qu Duan, and after a while, said, "General, why didn't you agree to the request just now?" The daughter who is begged is a well-known beauty and talented woman in the northwest, which is worthy of the general's son! ”

Qu Duan smiled and said, "I have self-knowledge, my son is not worthy of his daughter!" Moreover, he is nothing more than trying to recruit me, wanting me to be a family with him! But I can't agree to this! ”

Wang Shu said: "In fact, after the general and Zhe Keqiu become sons and daughters, if Zhe Keqiu can succeed in the future, the general, you are also a relative of the emperor, and your status will not be higher than now?" ”

Qu Duan shook his head and said, "I don't want to get involved in their affairs!" You don't have to persuade anymore! ”

Wang Shu smiled bitterly and sighed softly.

At this moment, someone outside reported that it was Yang Shi and Zhao Ding who wanted to see him!

Qu Duan was stunned for a moment and said, "Yang Shi? Zhao Ding? How did they get here? ”

Wang Shu said: "They just want to win over the general for King Kang!" The general might as well meet them! ”

Qu Duan said: "It's okay! ”

After a while, the door opened, and Yang Shi and Zhao Ding walked into the room!

At this moment, Qu Duan had already stood up and hurried to greet him! Zhao Ding is also okay, Yang Shi is a well-known Confucian in the world! The literary style of the Song Dynasty was extremely prosperous, the status of the literati was extremely high, although Qu Duan was a general, but he never dared to hold it up in front of Yang Shi!

"Mr. Yang, Lord Zhao, I have admired the name for a long time!" Qu Duan looked at Yang Shi and Zhao Ding with a smile.

"General Qu's prestige, we have admired it for a long time!" Yang Shi said lightly.

There was a hint of disdain in Yang Shi's eyes, he was the head of the world, and he had always looked down on martial artists! If it weren't for the fact that this time was very important, he would never have dealt with Qu Duan, a rude martial artist!

In his mind, there is still a big difference between the curved end and the fold! Qu Duan is a standard "mud leg", and he is from a family of soldiers, and he is a nobleman in the army! Therefore, his attitude is completely different when facing the curved end and facing the fold! At this moment, he didn't hide the disdain in his eyes, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him showing such eyes!

"You two, please take a seat! Come on, don't show Mr. Yang and Mr. Zhao tea! Qu Duan also saw the disdain in Yang Shi's eyes, he just smiled faintly.

At that moment, a soldier came over with tea! Seeing that the person serving the tea turned out to be a soldier, Yang Shi's brows furrowed again! For a Confucian like him, the one who serves tea and water must be a beautiful maid, how can he let a rough soldier serve him? Therefore, Yang Shi was unhappy again!

Yang Shi behaved like this, and Qu Duan's heart finally became unhappy! He originally wanted to chat with these two for a while, but now he was not in the mood to chat, and said, "Mr. Yang, Lord Zhao, what are you doing?" ”

Yang Shidao: "Emperor Jianyan has ascended the throne in Shangqiu and is the lord of the Great Song Dynasty!" General Qu, you are the envoy of Jingyuan Road, and my military general of the Great Song Dynasty should naturally be loyal to Emperor Jianyan and obey Emperor Jianyan's orders! You leave Hanzhong now, follow us to Shangqiu, and meet Emperor Jianyan!" ”

When Yang Shi said this, Qu Duan was stunned, Wang Shu was stunned, and Zhao Ding was also stunned!

They all looked at Yang Shi blankly, only to see Yang Shi's eyes narrowed slightly, with arrogance and disdain!

Qu Duan almost laughed out angrily, even if he wanted to recruit people, it was not such a solicitation method! Yang Shi didn't look like a solicitor, but like casually scolding a slave!

Zhao Ding hurriedly spoke: "General Qu, Fang is in a big mess today!" Emperor Jianyan ascended the throne in Shangqiu, and there were millions of troops sitting down, including countless good generals such as Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun, Wang Yuan, and countless civil servants such as Zong Ze, Huang Qianshan, and Wang Boyan! Emperor Jianyan is already orthodox in the Central Plains, and Emperor Jianyan will lead a large army to the north to attack the Jurchens and welcome the second emperor! Who knew that now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to ascend the throne in Hanzhong! If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, won't my Great Song Dynasty have two kings, and won't the country be divided? The people of the world have already suffered a lot, and if the two kings quarrel again, I am afraid that the suffering of the people will be even deeper! May the general think of the people of the world and dissuade the prince! ”

Qu Duan was silent for a moment, everyone in the room looked at Qu Duan, and after a while, Qu Duan shook his head and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the eldest son of Emperor Jingkang, and it is natural to inherit the throne!" On the contrary, King Kang, as a vassal king, tried to usurp the throne, which is very inappropriate! ”

Before Zhao Ding could speak, Yang Shi was already furious, he stood up, his whole body trembled, pointed at Qu Duan, and scolded: "King Kang is old, the country is in chaos, and he has to inherit the throne!" You, a horseman, just have 100,000 troops in your hands, and you dare not to attach yourself to King Kang! When King Kang's soldiers come to the northwest, you will only have a dead end! You damn thing! ”

After Qu Duan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face was full of disgust, he couldn't bear it, and immediately said: "Come on, send off!" ”

Zhao Ding was taken aback and said, "General Qu, listen to me!" ”

Qu Duan said: "You don't have to say anything! I will never cling to King Kang, a traitor! Come on, send them out quickly! ”

At that moment, several soldiers rushed in, and they dragged Yang Shi and Zhao Ding outside, Yang Shi was still scolding there, and Zhao Ding was depressed! He had already thought of the rhetoric of soliciting Qu Duan, and had already decided to temporarily seal Qu Duan as the "Generalissimo of the Northwest Soldiers and Horses" and "Jingyuan Jiedu Envoy" and "Shaanxi Xuanfu Envoy" and many other official positions for King Kang, in order to envelop Quduan! Who knew that Yang Shi was so confused that he actually made Qu Duan face here!

After Yang Shi and Zhao Ding left, Qu Duan said disdainfully: "What are these two people?" Did King Kang send such a thing to recruit me? ”

Wang Shu shook his head, he didn't expect King Kang's envoy to look like this! Especially Yang Shi, who is a well-known Confucian in the world, but he doesn't have the slightest ability to do things! He originally hoped that Qu Duan could be moved by Yang Shi and Zhao Ding, so that Qu Duan could continue to take his "middle strategy", but now it seems impossible!

"General, we are indeed exhausted all the way! I can't hold on anymore, so I'm going to rest! Wang Shu arched his hand and said.

Qu Duan ruled the army strictly, but he was usually very easy-going with his subordinates, so Wang Shu didn't care about many etiquette.

"There you go!" Qu Duan nodded.

After Wang Shu left, Qu Duan also felt a little tired, and went to rest immediately.

The post house slowly fell silent.

At this moment, in a palace at the back of the Han Palace, Zhao Chen is sitting cross-legged on a cushion!

He was meditating with his eyes slightly closed!

It was a long time before he opened his eyes, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes!

After many days of cultivation, his previous palm wounds and poisonous injuries had been completely healed, and now his body, spirit, and internal strength had reached the peak realm that he could now reach!

Zhao Chen stood up and looked outside the palace!

The palace doors were wide open, there was no one outside, and only guards were there far away!

The rain is dripping, and the sound of the rain makes people's mood seem unusually calm!

Zhao Chen walked to the door, secretly thinking about things in his heart!

"After cultivating for many days, my internal strength has reached the sixth layer of the day after tomorrow! It's a pity that all the innate skills of the master were consumed on washing the marrow and cutting the hair, and only a little remained in my body! It's just that these remnants have already allowed me to enter the sixth layer of the realm of the day after tomorrow! This Chongyang Divine Skill is really very different from the previous Emperor Heavenly Formula, after cultivation, people's bodies and spirits become relaxed and comfortable, fluttering like immortals, but the previous Imperial Heavenly Technique did not have such an effect! ”

He was thinking about it when suddenly there was footsteps in the distance!
