It only took three hours for Qin Lei and his party to rush to the outside of Jingzhou City, and this section of the road originally had to be walked for a whole day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When he arrived five miles outside the city, the carriage stopped, and Shi Dang opened the car door, and saw that the crowd outside the city gate was overwhelming. Among these people are the elderly, children, middle-aged young people, officials, gentry, peasants and traders, all three religions and nine streams. So many people gathered together, looking at him in unison, and there was no sound at all.

Shi Dang was a little shy to look at, and quickly turned his head and reported to His Highness in the carriage.

"Oh?" Qin Lei listened, looked at Zhuo Wenzheng and said, "You made it?" ”

Zhuo Wenzheng cleared his eyes and said: "It's not a subordinate, it should be a trick made up by the gang of people who revive the Yamen." ”

Qin Lei said with a smile on his face: "Yes, the councilors are very caring." ”

Zhuo Wenzheng hurriedly added: "It's just that his subordinates informed them." ”

Qin Lei glared at him and said, "I know it's you, be honest with me next time, don't do something that costs the people and money." Frightened, Zhuo Wenzheng shrank his neck again, he had been completely lost his temper by this moody uncle.

Having said that, but the scene should still go, Qin Lei straightened his clothes, strode to the door of the car, and looked at the black brain case that could not be seen at a glance, and couldn't help but feel dizzy.

Seeing the prince emerge from the carriage, the people of Jingzhou, who had been waiting for a long time, were overjoyed, shouting, crying and laughing, and some people rushed forward desperately, and there was a violent friction with the black-armored cavalry. There was everything going on the whole field, and people seemed to be collectively crazy, and suddenly it became a pot of porridge.

Looking at the vicissitudes of life, or immature, or shrewd, or honest faces, they all became so excited. Qin Lei was also excited, he knew that these people were sincere, and they really wanted to see themselves, not to be chased over by the official yamen.

There is no doubt that when they see the prince again, the people of Jingzhou are excited from the bottom of their hearts. This young and handsome prince not only brought them peace again, but also brought food and clothing, as well as unprecedented hope...... It can be said that when Qin Lei sent an envoy to Southern Chu and exchanged himself as a hostage for the crown prince, the people of the entire Qin State were moved by this great man with a sacrificial spirit, and they eulogized him, praised him, and were proud of him.

But the people of the south do not think so, although they are also proud and more proud, but they are more worried and worried than the people in other places. Because Qin Lei and the south have long been blended together, you have me, I have you...... Qin Lei is the guarantee that the new policy in the south can be implemented, and the south is the cornerstone of Qin Lei's proud court. Without Qin Lei, everything in the south is not guaranteed, they will be torn to pieces by the northern scholars, and there will be no scum left to eat. Of course, without the south, Qin Lei would not have the capital to argue with Emperor Zhaowu and Li Hun, and the consequences can be imagined.

Respect comes from dependence, and dependence comes from need. The people of the south could not live without him, so the people of the south respected him from the bottom of their hearts.

It is not difficult to understand this gaffe of the people, which is a kind of venting after worrying and looking forward to it day and night, people want to vent all the tension and fear accumulated in their chests, and people want to vent all the excitement and joy in their hearts.

Looking at the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people who were enchanted by him, Qin Lei's heart beat violently, if he didn't press it tightly with his hands, he was afraid that he would rush out of his chest. He looked at the excited faces with tears in his eyes, suddenly ripped off the big behind him, and roared up to the sky: "I'm back!" ”

'I'm back!' This is a declaration to the people of Jiangbei, and it is also a war letter to all enemies.

You have tried your best to get me out of Great Qin and put me under house arrest by the enemy again. I did leave, and I did go under house arrest, but it didn't take long for me to come back. When I stand on this hot land again, nothing can beat me, because this time...... After the test of life and death, I became stronger! Stronger than ever!

"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! "People cheered and got carried away, as if they could not vent the passion in their breasts without committing some taboos.

When the voice came into the carriage, the prince frowned and said softly, "This word will definitely reach the ears of my father." ’

Zhuo Wenzheng smiled bitterly and said: "The cheers of the people from the bottom of their hearts, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't control it." ”

Qin Lei waved his hand indifferently, and the crowd quickly quieted down.

His eyes swept over the people in the field, and he said loudly: "This time I went south, so you are worried, and I can't compensate you." But rest assured, Lone won't worry you anymore! ”

People looked at Qin Lei with reverence, and it was obviously not enjoyable to listen to just one sentence.

Smacking his lips, he had no choice but to continue: "The lonely king still wants to tell you, live and work in peace and contentment, do your own thing, don't worry about the rest," he said, pointing to the gray sky above his head and said: "The sky is falling, and I will hold it!" ”

"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! The people of Jingzhou recognized this sentence.

After being held by the enthusiastic people of Jingzhou for a day, Qin Lei was able to continue on the road, and he would break up with the prince here.

When parting, the prince expressed his concerns: "Brother, keep a low profile, if the news reaches the ears of my father, then it will be a big trouble." ”

Qin Lei was very moved by the prince's concern, and grabbed his arm vigorously, but he didn't say right: "Alas, there is no way, it's just so popular, you can't keep a low profile." ”

The prince laughed and said, "Let's get down to business." ”

Qin Lei suppressed his smile at this time, and said with a straight face: "You still don't know our father?" The more you pretend to be a grandson, the more he likes to bully you. ”

The prince was deeply touched and said: "That's true, you see that I am respectful and cautious all day long, and there is no violation of the rules. And what about the boss? All day long, his nostrils are facing the sky, like an uncle, and he doesn't even bother to call his father. He spread his hands and said, "What is the result?" The father chose soft persimmons and pinched them, but he didn't dare to move the boss's thorn. ”

Qin Lei said with a smile: "So, since it's a sin to be low-key, then I'll do the opposite and show him my strength," he said, clenching his fists and saying, "Let him weigh it in his heart next time when he wants to deal with me." "In fact, he still hasn't said half a sentence: 'The imperial court is still counting on the grain and grass from the south to supply the eastern front, and when you see the performance of the people in the south, you dare to move me at all?'

Seeing that he had an idea in his heart, the prince no longer persuaded him, and said with a chuckle: "Your method is good, but it is too violent, and no one can learn it." ”

Qin Lei gritted his teeth and watched him get in the car and go away.

When the prince's convoy disappeared into the vast wilderness, Qin Lei also turned around and said, "Let's go, go to Tangzhou." ”

saw Yunshang standing there with a melancholy face, and slowly shook his head and said, "I've thought about it, let's go back to Beijing." ”

The second monk Qin Lei couldn't touch it, and squeezed out a smile and said, "Which one is this?" ”

Taking a deep breath, Yunshang raised her head, looked at Qin Lei fixedly, and said, "I can't be sorry Sister Shiyun, I know that you wanted to propose to Li Shangshu's family in the summer, but she stopped you." ”

Qin Lei squinted his eyes and said, "How do you know?" This matter was relatively secret, at that time, Shiyun had not yet recovered, so Qin Lei wanted to propose to the Li family and give her an explanation, but Shiyun refused. She would rather quit than see Qin Lei give up his relationship with Yunshang in order to repay his kindness, in Shiyun's opinion, if he really did this, it would be the biggest stain on the love between the two.

Qin Lei knew that this little girl was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and she couldn't resist it at all, so she had to give up for the time being. Because it didn't work out, there was no noise, but once when I was gossiping before going to bed, I briefly mentioned it to Ruolan.

Eighty percent is what Ruolan said, but why did she do it? Just in a blink of an eye, Qin Lei figured out the joints, this is the benefit of perennial intrigue...... Standing in Ruolan's position, Shiyun's background, appearance, character, and talent, etc., etc., everything made her feel inferior. On the other hand, what about Yunshang? It's not that serious, after all, she used to be a 'demon girl', which is considered a stain, and she has also walked with Ruolan, and her status was even inferior to her for a time.

In addition, Yunshang has a bit of a heroic spirit, he is very arrogant in everything, never cares, unlike Shiyun, everything is like a candle, he knows everything well, he is not angry and arrogant, which is awe-inspiring. Compared with the two, it is still Yunshang as the housemother, and the people below can live more comfortably, and it is not surprising that there is no shortage of shrewd Ruolan who will favor her.

"I just know anyway." As he spoke, Yunshang's tears fell, and he said with a crying voice: "When I saw you that day, and you said that, I was so happy, and I didn't think about Sister Shiyun." As he spoke, he began to cry: "I'm not good...... How could I forget Sister Shiyun? ”

Looking at her pear blossoms with rain, Qin Lei was distressed, and quickly reached out to take her delicate body into his arms, and said softly: "It's because I'm not good, I always want everyone to be happy, but I don't make anyone happy." ”

"No, I'm happy," Yunsheng's head shook like a rattle, and said softly: "You don't dislike me for being a demon girl, and you still spoil me so much, it's already a blessing that the slave family has cultivated for eight lifetimes." ”

"Nonsense," Qin Lei smiled bitterly, held up her tearful face with both hands, and said seriously: "Even when the soul returns to the west, I can't forget that there was once a beautiful girl who, in order to see me for the first time, traveled thousands of miles, running through the north and south of Daqin, standing on the river embankment and looking southward. Do you know how heavy this love is? ”

Yunshang shook her head, wiped her tears and choked up, "I don't know ......"

"It's worth everything." Qin Lei looked at Yunshang with honest eyes and said, "Don't blame yourself anymore, it's me who should blame yourself." It's that I shouldn't think twice and look at the pot while eating in the bowl......"

'Puff...... Yun Sheng burst into tears and laughed, "Who is in the bowl?" Who's in the pot again? ”

Qin Lei gently scratched her little Qiong's nose, and said with a smile: "Whatever, I have to eat it anyway." ”

"What about Sister Shiyun?" For a girl who dedicates all her heart to her lover, it is the best gift to be able to become a family member in the end. So she couldn't refuse his offer several times, but Shiyun, can't hurt! 'Absolutely not. The girl clenched her fists secretly.

"Don't eat radish first and worry about it," Qin Lei smiled rudely and said, "I'll go negotiate with your father and your mother." ”

Four days later, Qin Lei arrived in Tangzhou. Looking at the city wall in sight, I still felt a little emotional: "At this time last year, Lao Tzu was chased by Chang Yunqu like a lost dog, and he didn't even see Tangzhou City, so this time it can be regarded as making up for a regret." ’

"Greetings to the prince!" Outside Tangzhou City, there were crowds of people, and similar scenes were repeated in every prefecture and city that Qin Lei passed, but they were not as open as the people of Jingzhou...... After all, Qin Lei's original trip was in Jingzhou City, and he had lived there for a long time, so he was naturally more familiar.

After dealing with the enthusiastic people, he moved into Qiao's house.

I watched the black-clothed guard carrying jade antiques, silk and satin and other gifts into the courtyard. Qiao's family trembled in their hearts...... In other words, just watching others give gifts to the prince, how can I watch the prince give gifts to others? It's clearly a night owl coming into the house - nothing will happen, and nothing good will happen.

Looking at Qiao Yunsheng who was following behind with a shy answer, Qiao Qipei and Qiao Yuanshan suddenly understood, what the hell is this gift, it is simply forcing the palace to come.

Regarding the things between the two, they are naturally like blind men eating dumplings, and they know it in their hearts. turned a blind eye to it, and let Old Man Jiang knock on the side, hoping that the two of them would finally achieve a positive result...... But it's not like it is today, what's going on? Where are the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker? So you want to marry the eldest lady of the Qiao family? Where to put the Qiao family's face?

But these questions can only be discussed privately? The four major families all let this young master rub back to death and obey, how dare their Qiao family say half a 'no'? That's why it's a forced palace.

Qin Lei is also the first time to come to the door to propose, generally speaking, there are not many people who do this kind of thing by themselves. So the three of them were a little embarrassed to meet, but fortunately, they were all scene people, and they entered the hall with a kind of atmosphere, hello and me. After washing the dust and eating and drinking, the three of them left the clansmen who sat with them, and the three of them went to the study to have tea.

Sitting in the warm and bookish room, the three of them looked at each other, and everyone knew that the time had come to see the dagger when they were poor.

Seeing that the two old foxes were drinking tea with their heads bored and didn't say a word, Qin Lei had no choice but to speak first: "This...... Ah, uncle, old man, ......"

Qiao Yuanshan didn't dare to say with a face: "Your Highness still call me Old Qiao, Yuanshan can't afford it." ”

"Actually, the two elders must know the boy's intention." Scratching his cheeks, Qin Lei stubbornly said: "You also know my relationship with my old man, and it is not a big deal to expect him to handle this matter......

Qiao Qipei said slowly: "Our Qiao family has not followed the prince for a day or two, and we also have a good understanding of your style, so we won't beat around the bush, and the old man will directly pick out my attitude." ”

"You please...... Say. Qin Lei said worriedly. Yes, as apprehensive as carrying fifteen rabbits.

"There is a saying that 'women don't stay, stay and stay to become enemies'," clearing his throat, Qiao Qipei said lightly: "For the matter of you and my granddaughter, it's useless for our Qiao family to think about anything, and we have to agree if we don't agree." "This is a standard fake skat, if you really don't agree, with the huge Qiao family, you can't deal with Qin Lei, but you can deal with a little girl like Yunshang who knows kung fu.

"Tai ......" Qin Lei was about to cheer, but found that Old Man Qiao's face was full of 'but', so he swallowed the second half of the sentence into his stomach and said with a wry smile: "You go on." ”

"But," sure enough, the old man drooped his eyelids and said with a solemn face: "The rule that has been passed down for thousands of years is that marriage must be ordered by parents, even if my Qiao family doesn't care, can the Holy Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, and Concubine Jin agree?" If they don't agree, how can the marriage be valid? After speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said secretly: 'It can be regarded as shirking the responsibility......

Qiao Yuanshan also breathed a sigh of relief, and persuaded softly on the side: "Yes, Your Highness, you should reconcile with Your Majesty first, at least get the approval of the Queen Mother first, otherwise this marriage will not be done!" "What he said is also true, even in ordinary people's homes, it is impossible to bypass their parents to hold a wedding...... Unless it's an inverted door.

Qin Lei nodded silently, he knew it would be like this.
