Chapter 20 If you don't agree, go to war

The NBA playoffs are finally over, and the novel continues

It stands to reason that I am the Taishou of Wuling, and I am the largest official in the huge county, although I can't be too guarded in all of them, but I can't count the people who can prevent me from marrying.

And this guy who came to touch my brow at this time is Gong Zhi. Seeing that his face was full of panic, completely ignoring all the guests present, and even pushing aside the master of ceremonies who was holding the ceremony for me and Qing'er, I knew that something big must have happened, so I didn't reprimand him, just waited for him to give me a reasonable explanation with a cold face.

After he explained to me in a sweaty manner, the hall suddenly became silent. I couldn't see Qing'er's expression clearly because she was still covered with a hijab, but I could tell from her slightly trembling body that this incident had hit her.

After Shana was put back by me, in order to prove to me that the barbarians were also trustworthy, she not only took away the army that occupied Taoyuan County, but also persuaded her brother to collect the troops. Her brother only has one sister, her, who is usually obedient, or she would not have allowed her to go deep into the enemy territory with more than a thousand brute soldiers to make trouble, so she would just withdraw her troops.

Who knew that after her brother Shamoko led the troops back, the barbarian king had to completely figure out the reason why Shana persuaded her brother to withdraw from the army, so Shana told her father the conditions she was forced to agree to after I caught her, and the barbarian king loved his daughter very much, and he didn't say anything at first.

But there is no impermeable wall in the world, and it is likely that what I said on the boat when I captured Shana was heard by the captured barbarians through the soldiers below me as a talking point, and Shana was indeed tied to my room to sleep that night, so the rumors began to spread in the territory of the Wuxi barbarians.

The barbarian king was furious when he heard this, although Shana explained in every possible way, and even tried to prove his innocence by death, but in the end the barbarian king still sent someone to send me a letter, which Gong Zhi didn't want to read, but the messenger of the barbarian king had clearly told him the meaning of the letter when he saw him, that is, I must marry the daughter of the barbarian king as a wife, so that the two sides will not only no longer have wars in the future, but will also support each other because of their courteous relationship. Otherwise, the barbarian king will raise the strength of the entire Wuxi barbarians, and 100,000 barbarians will go straight to the county town and snatch me, the bridegroom, back to the cave house.

I listened to Gong Zhi's relay, and I didn't have the intention to read the letter again, and the whole festive atmosphere of the wedding was dissipated by this sudden incident. I wanted to continue this wedding, but the auspicious time had come, and I would miss it if I didn't visit the church.

At this time, everyone present focused their eyes on me, and I sighed, although I knew very well what the consequences would be if I didn't agree to the barbarian king, but in this situation, if I just gave in, what would Qing'er do? Am I still a man? What will the whole world think of me?

Thinking of this, my blood surged, I couldn't care so much anymore, and shouted at the celebrant: "What are you still doing in a daze!" Delay the auspicious time of my worship, and I will throw you down from the castle tower! ”

The celebrant was trembling when he heard this, and hurriedly came up to continue the ceremony. I said this clearly to the celebrant officer, but I was actually warning everyone present, including Gong Zhi, not to spoil my good deeds.

I can imagine that if the messenger of the barbarian king had come on the first day before my visit, these officials would have pulled me to the death to prevent me from marrying Qing'er, but now that the arrow is on the line, it would indeed be too unlucky to stop now, so they can only stand by and watch my ceremony of worship with a smile on their faces.

After the worship was over, I was supposed to toast from table to table, but it was obvious that everyone was in no mood to eat and drink, let alone me, and the wedding banquet, which was supposed to be celebrated all night, ended hastily, and when I entered the cave room and removed the hijab for Qing'er, she looked at me with red eyes, and took my hand with her tender little hands and said, "It's really hard for you." I rushed on it desperately, and the night seemed to be just to forget the danger that was coming.

The next day I woke up at dawn, and this time Qing'er was not gone, she was happily lying in my arms, with a smile on her face, perhaps having a sweet dream.

I couldn't help but kiss her gently, she was woken up by me, and it was inevitable that there would be a burst of frolic again, and after the calm, she mentioned to me about the barbarian king, and I told her not to worry, it was just that the barbarian king was scaring me, although the barbarians were good at fighting, they were definitely helpless in the face of the county town with high walls and thick walls.

After changing clothes and going out, the housekeeper reported that a young man who claimed to be Ma Jian came from Nanjun, saying that he also brought a letter from Zhuge Military Division, and a letter from Mrs. Zhuge to Qing'er.

I was secretly happy when I heard that Ma Jian came, and he was treated with great hospitality, but he didn't seem to look down on me very much, except for the proper audience gift, which was to present the letters of Kong Ming and Huang Yueying, and then he was a little dazed, and didn't know what to think again.

I ordered someone to send her Huang Yueying's letter to Qing'er, and I didn't care about Ma Jian for the time being, but I just opened Mr.'s letter and read it carefully, and after reading the letter, I felt a chill welling up from my heart.

It turned out that not long after I left Nanjun, Liu Bei's wife, Mrs. Gan, was gone, and Zhou Yu sent someone to match, Liu Bei was already in Nanxu at this time, and Zhao Yun was also escorted, which is why Kong Ming and his wife couldn't come to Wuling County to congratulate me and Qing'er.

The reason why I feel a chill is not because Kong Ming did not come to my wedding, in fact, the reason why I dare to treat the Wuxi barbarians with a tough attitude is entirely because the strength of the Jingzhou army is strong now, because Shu has not yet been taken, and all the fierce generals under Liu Bei except for Ma Chao, who has not yet surrendered, are here, so even if the barbarian king leads 100,000 barbarian soldiers to attack, I only need to ask for help and let Liu Bei and Kong Ming solve them.

But now Kong Ming couldn't be more clear in the letter, because Liu Bei took Zhao Yun to Nanxu, he could only sit in the south county to defend Zhou Yu in the east and Cao Cao in the north. In other words, if the barbarian king brings troops to fight me at this time, the possibility that he can lead the army to help is close to zero.

Although I was panicked, I could only pretend to be calm because Ma Jian was in front of me, and I pretended to be unintentional and said to Ma Yan: "According to the itinerary, you should have arrived here yesterday, why didn't you come to my wedding a day late?" ”

When Ma Tan heard this, he said: "Too forgive, the fact is that it should be like this, but the water of the Yangtze River has risen sharply in the past few days, and it is really difficult to cross the river from the north of the river, so it can only be crossed by military boats when the water flow is a little slow, so it is only a day late." ”

I listened to Ma Tan's words and felt that my whole body was cold, but I didn't expect that the casual question I asked to hide my panic gave me another heavy blow.

What does it mean for rivers to swell? The surging river means that if the barbarian king comes to attack, even if Kong Ming wants to send an army to rescue me, he will not be able to cross the river at this time, which means that I can only pray now that the barbarian king will not let me marry Qing'er The matter is just to scare and scare me!

At this moment, Gong Zhi rushed in from outside the courtyard gate with a panicked face, and I knew it was not good when I looked at his lost soul.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the door, he said to me with a sad face: "It's not good to be too shou-sama!" The barbarian king seems to have already marched in at the same time as warning us, and Tanma reported that the barbarian army led by the barbarian king Shasad completely ignored the county town they passed by, and was killing the county town with Shamoke as the vanguard, and now it has passed Youyang, and there are still a lot of sailors.
