After the emperor and the ministers of the court left, all the spectators and candidates also left one by one, and Zhao Ziliang also returned home with Chen Qingying, son Zhao Lei, nephew Zhao Hu and others.

Soon, the emperor, the concubines, the envoys of various countries, and the ministers of the court and the central government sent people to bring the lotions they had promised, and the copper coins were piled up in the courtyard into a mountain, and the gold, silver, and jewels were all contained in chests, as well as a large amount of fine wine, four good horses, and more than a dozen beautiful women.

Sending everyone away, Zhao Ziliang returned to the courtyard and looked at the piles of lottery heads, as well as the gambling money obtained from the people who opened the gamble, and shouted: "Steward Wang!" ”

Wang Ru came over and saluted: "Master! ”

Zhao Ziliang pointed to the mountains of money and said: "Put these copper coins and gold, silver and jewelry into the account room, and then move them into the cellar to hide, the fine wine is moved into the wine cellar, and the good horses are brought into the stable and sent to take care of them!" ”

"No!" Wang Ru agreed, just wanted to call someone to do the work, and saw more than a dozen beauties in the courtyard, he was suddenly a little embarrassed, pointed to those beauties and asked, "Master, what about these beauties?" ”

Zhao Ziliang is not a person who likes beauty very much, and these beauties may be rare beauties in the eyes of others, but in Zhao Ziliang's eyes, they are all vulgar fans, so they are not interested.

Looking at these beautiful women, Zhao Ziliang was also a little embarrassed, touched his chin, turned his head to look at Chen Qingying and asked, "Madam, now that you are in charge, what do you say about these beautiful women!" ”

Chen Qingying's beautiful eyes flowed, and she smiled: "There are so many beautiful women, don't Lang Jun like them?" It's just the blessing of all people! ”

Zhao Ziliang couldn't help crying and laughing, "Madam, don't make fun of it, there are many affairs, and after the Wuju Palace test, you have to go to the Shenwu Army to take office, how can you have time to enjoy the blessings of all people?" Besides, the night sheng song is not liked by a certain person. Madame still managed to send them away! ”

Chen Qingying saw Zhao Ziliang say this, and also knew his temperament, thought about it, and quickly came up with an idea, and asked: "These servants have been trained by Lang Jun, and all of them can block a hundred." Even if you send any one of them to be a brave general who can charge into battle, it is better to choose the best ones from among these subordinates, give these beautiful women to them, and win their hearts! I don't know what Lang Jun thinks? ”

Zhao Ziliang couldn't imagine that Chen Qingying would have such means, and couldn't help but be a little impressed by Chen Qingying, so he agreed: "Very good, so let the lady tell them, and the things from here will be done by the husband."

"No!"

Zhao Ziliang is not a person who drags mud and water, and since he has decided to do it, he will start it immediately. There were still sixty-five of his subordinates left, and he knew them very well, and he had found more than a dozen of the best subordinates that night, including Bai Xiaode, Nan Jiyun, and Brehan.

These servants who were called, including Bai Xiaode, Nan Jiyun and Brehan, were all people who had nothing, if they hadn't followed Zhao Ziliang, without Zhao Ziliang's promotion, promotion and teaching, they would not have achieved what they are today.

Zhao Ziliang looked at Bai Xiaode, Nan Jiyun and Brehan and more than a dozen servants and said, "Today, I got some lottery. In addition to the money, there are more than a dozen Meiji. These beauties are all quite good, you are not young anymore, and you have not yet married, so I decided to give these beauties to you, and each of you chooses one! I wonder if you'd like to? ”

Most of these servants have no parents, brothers and other relatives, and they can't find a high hall to call the shots if they want to take a wife. Now Zhao Ziliang wants to send beautiful women to them as wives, how can they not want to? Immediately, they were grateful, and they bowed down and asked Zhao Ziliang to call the shots for them.

Zhao Ziliang let them get up and said, "Some of you may have unlimited achievements in the future, and you can't force you to take a certain Meiji who was given to you as a wife, and you can take them as a wife." It doesn't matter if you are a concubine, you don't care, there is only one thing, you can't treat them badly! ”

Everyone shouted: "Don't worry, general, we will not treat them badly!" ”

In addition to rewarding each person with a beautiful concubine, Zhao Ziliang also rewarded each person with some money, cloth and some daily necessities, so that they could live a normal life after they got married. Most of the other servants who didn't get the beauty were rewarded to some extent.

After dinner, Zhao Ziliang asked Chen Qingying: "How about the woman who saved her husband yesterday?" Have you woken up? ”

Chen Qingying said: "I've woken up, and I came to see Lang Zhong again today, and Lang Zhong said that there was no big problem, but he had to stay in bed to recuperate for half a month before he could go to the ground." Madam, this girl Yu Fujun has a lifesaver, and she is seriously injured, I don't know how her husband is going to thank others? ”

When he asked this, Zhao Ziliang grinned and grabbed his hair, and asked rhetorically: "If it is a man, if he wants to be an official, the husband will naturally find a way to make him an official and a half-job, if he doesn't want to be an official, the husband will give him some money, if he doesn't want anything, the husband will naturally write down this favor and return it later." But the problem is that she is a woman, a woman can't be an official, she is only afraid that it is not for money, and her husband really doesn't know how to repay her for a while, why don't you come up with an idea? ”

The ball was kicked back again, Chen Qingying couldn't help but be annoyed, glared at him hatefully, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, you don't have to worry about this matter, the concubine will deal with it, and you will not let others say that ours is not."

Zhao Ziliang smiled and arched his hand: "Then there is Mrs. Lao!" ”

After Zhao Ziliang left, Chen Qingying thought about it, sent someone to find Bai Xiaode and Wang Can, and asked, "You two must know about the woman in the West Wing, tell me, what's going on with her?" Why did you go to save my family? Don't try to fool the past, even if you don't say it, others will say it! ”

Bai Xiaode and Wang Can glanced at each other, and they both knew that this time they were afraid that they would not say anything, so they could only talk about the grievances and hatreds of Nie Sanniang and Zhao Ziliang in detail.

After listening to the two of them, Chen Qingying pondered: "But I don't want this Nie Sanniang to be such a strange woman with affection and righteousness, according to what you said, if she goes out again, I am afraid that she will be chased and killed by the assassins sent by Li Linfu, she has been seriously injured many times in order to save my family Lang Jun, and she has escaped death several times, and her revenge for assassinating Lang Jun can be written off a long time ago, but it makes Zhao Lang owe her a lot of kindness, which is difficult to do!" ”

At this time, Bai Xiaode said: "Madam, my subordinates don't know whether to say something or not?" ”

"Oh, Captain Bai will say something if he has something, no need to scruples."

Bai Xiaode touched his nose and said: "Judging from her subordinates, then Nie Sanniang is only afraid that she likes the general in her heart, otherwise, how could she, a female assassin, risk her life several times to save the general?" Apart from this possibility, the subordinates can't think of any other reason for her! ”

Chen Qingying frowned when she heard this, then stretched out again, smiled, and said to Bai Xiaode and Wang Can: "Okay, you can go."

Sending Bai Xiaode and Wang Can away, Chen Qingying came to the study, at this time Zhao Ziliang was reading a book, looked up and saw her walking in, so he put down the book and asked, "Madame has something to do here?" ”

Chen Qingying sat opposite Zhao Ziliang and said, "The concubine is here for Nie Sanniang's business."

"Oh?" Zhao Ziliang asked, "What are the plans of Madame?" ”

Chen Qingying said with a smile: "Recently, the DPRK and China have held a literary and martial arts ceremony, among which there are many young talents, the concubine thinks, why not choose one person from these young talents to be Nie Sanniang's husband?" I heard that there is a young talented high school jinshi named Zhang Xun, who is upright, extraordinary, and good at learning, and Nie Sanniang is also a strange woman, the two of them should be very well matched, I don't know what the husband thinks? ”

Zhao Ziliang heard Chen Qingying say this, and knew that she knew about the matter between herself and Nie Sanniang, so she said: "Madam, you are messing with mandarin duck scores, and you don't ask if they are happy?" Besides, Zhang Xun is a jinshi, and the wife he takes in the future must be a famous lady, do you want Miss Nie to be his concubine? Miss Nie has a strong temperament, and she would rather be a woman with broken jade than a complete tile, so I'm afraid she won't agree."

Chen Qingying didn't think about it so much, and when she heard Zhao Ziliang say this, she knew that the consideration was inappropriate, she glanced at Zhao Ziliang, and suddenly smiled: "The matter between you and Nie Sanniang, the concubine knows everything, since Miss Nie likes you, and you also have Miss Nie in your heart, then why don't you accept her?" If Lang Jun really likes her, he doesn't have to worry about the feelings of the concubine, Lang Jun is a person who wants to do great things, and having a few more wives and concubines around him is nothing, and Miss Nie is strong in martial arts and is born as an assassin, if she is by Lang Jun's side, Lang Jun will be much safer! ”

Zhao Ziliang was a little embarrassed when Chen Qingying revealed the secret in his heart, and said: "Madame is broad-minded, unlike other jealous women, but she is really ashamed to be a husband but still hide it in front of her wife!" Now that Mrs. already knows, she won't hide it for her husband, but she should postpone thinking about marrying Miss Nie, she is a strong woman, and she has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, it is difficult to say whether she can accept serving a husband at the same time as other women, if she rashly proposes, wouldn't it be beautiful to annoy her? ”

Chen Qingying glanced at Zhao Ziliang and said, "How can you know if you don't try?" As long as the husband doesn't want to live up to her affection, the concubine will tell her about it, even if Miss Nie is angry, the husband just treats it as if she doesn't know, so there is still room for turnaround! ”

Zhao Ziliang pondered for a moment, and finally agreed: "This will trouble Madame, but this matter should be mentioned until Miss Nie's injury is better, so as not to affect her injury."

Chen Qingying said with a smile: "The concubine knows, don't worry, husband."

Zhao Ziliang didn't have time to pay attention to such things, and the next day he had to hold the semi-finals and finals of the list, and there were four people who entered the semi-finals, namely Nan Jiyun, Ma Lu, Li Guiren, and Wang Sili, these four people are not only strong in martial arts, but also have quite high attainments in the art of war in the battle array.
