Chapter 229: Embarrassment (Part II)
The atmosphere in the study was eerie and dreary. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xu Huanting opened her eyes, her face was not red and she said nonsense, and then pulled Jiang Yun, who was numb, and beckoned him to sit down on the wide chair on the left.
The emerald green on Ji Yu's face gradually turned into dark green, Xu Chengsi's brows jumped wildly as if they were cramping, Xu Jiye's face was still calm, but the heavy wheezing sound that echoed in the study betrayed him in a very shameless manner.
This stalemate did not last long, and Xu Jiye finally broke the peace. "Ji Dujun, the old man needs to deal with some family matters, so I won't leave you."
This is an obvious eviction order, but Ji Yu doesn't want to leave, he must make this matter clear, and at the same time want to know the attitude of the Xu family. "Grandpa Guo, this...
Ji Yu's identity may be worried by others, but Xu Jiye will not take it to heart, he waved his hand impatiently and said, "Overseer, please take care of yourself." ”
This is not negotiable, Xu Jiye has a resolute attitude, and it is clear that this is a family matter, and Ji Yuna's identity as an overseer is not useful, and after thinking about it again, he bowed unwillingly. "Then the next official will retire first." Before leaving, he took a deep look at Xu Huanting.
After walking one, the study fell silent again. Xu Jiye closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and then asked, "How far have you come?" ”
What a! I didn't start at all, to what extent. Jiang Yun came back to his senses, and was just about to open his mouth to shout grievances, when a burst of heart-piercing pain suddenly came from his right arm. The little lady actually dared to pinch him, Jiang Yun gasped. In the blink of an eye, the right to speak was suddenly lost.
Xu Huanting smiled and replied first: "I'm picking a day, I want to give things first." ”
"I don't agree." Xu Jiye gradually regained his composure and said unhurriedly, but his tone was unshakable and resolute.
His appearance frightened others, but Xu Huanting ignored him, and a look of disdain suddenly climbed on her pretty face. "It's me who marries or not you, what's the matter with you?"
"I'm your father!"
"So what?"
Looking at the appearance of this pair of parents, Jiang Yun knew that she was used as a gun, and thought that Xu Huanting was using herself to fool the little white face, but she never thought that she was planning to kill two birds with one stone, and by the way, she was angry with her father. Ay! What's going on here? What can Jiang Yun do? This will save the grievances, no matter what, you have to offend one horizontally and vertically. Since you can't get out, you can only measure who you offend to minimize the loss.
The county official is not as good as the current management, Xu Huanting is his top boss, and he can't offend her if he offends anyone, otherwise he won't be able to wear out his small shoes in the future. Besides, looking at the situation in front of him, the old guy has no way to deal with his daughter. Well, just keep silent and let them go.
The two were at a stalemate, and Xu Jiye turned to Jiang Yun as a breakthrough.
"Jiang Yun, there are no outsiders in the house now, tell you the truth, did you stir up yesterday's incident?"
“。。。”
"The heir told the old man about you and Ji Luo. It is undeniable that you have done this very beautifully, and the old man has no handle, let alone evidence to prove that this matter is related to you, but you and I both know the facts. In this world, there are many things that do not need evidence. ”
“。。。”
"Brother Mingcheng has no way to take his three daughters in this life. Ji Luo has a stubborn temperament, since he has to resist marriage at the expense of making such a big mess, it can be seen that his mind is indeed on you. Now that this matter has passed, according to the old man's estimate, you should have met with Brother Mingcheng, right? What conditions did he give you? ”
"Within two years, it will be three products."
Xu Jiye was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "The old man promised you that within two years, he would guarantee you a third-grade martial arts position." In exchange, leave Huanting. ”
"Thank you Grandpa Guo for raising up, but since the last general has promised His Royal Highness King Wu, he naturally has to fight for it with his own ability, if he does it with the power of the Duke of Guo, it will be done, and it is nothing, and it is still difficult for His Royal Highness King Wu to change. This is cheating, and I will disdain it. ”
Jiang Yun didn't say this, he really thought so. The task given to him by King Wu was not only to successfully pass the imperial court, but also to give him a chance to prove himself. If you rely on others to take the throne, I am afraid that King Wu will regret it when the time comes. In the final analysis, King Wu didn't care about the third-grade official position, but Jiang Yun's own ability and hard work.
Xu Jiye didn't expect him to refuse so simply, and couldn't help frowning: "You should know that if you want to be promoted to the third grade in two years on your own, this is simply wishful thinking." Even if the old man helps, he also needs to use a lot of human relationships. The military generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty are no better than civilian officials, and the promotion of civil officials depends on their political achievements, even if it is a small county order, as long as the government is done properly, they can be promoted. The generals are different, the promotion of the generals depends on the merits of the war, such as today's peace, the merits of the war are nowhere to be desired, and the only way is to hold a military exercise once a year in the imperial court. Like Wan Ting, she wins the championship every year, and it is only from five grades in three years. ”
"The last general is willing to give it a try."
Xu Jiye's face suddenly became gloomy. "What do you mean, you don't plan to give up on Huanting?"
“。。。” Is there a causal relationship between the two? Jiang Yun wanted to explain, but after seeing Xu Huanting's threatening eyes, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.
"If you really like Huanting, the old man is not an unreasonable person. As long as you disassociate yourself with Ji Luo in the future, the old man can not object to you and Huanting. Xu Jiye thought about it and took a step back. Although the Xu family is not as good as the royal family of the Great Zhou, the old man's daughter cannot be wronged and will never be small. Young man, you can't have both fish and bear's paws, you won't understand this truth, right? ”
Jiang Yun sighed slightly when he heard this. Strictly speaking, Ji Luo's mermaid is also a "small" category... What's more, he didn't plan to eat Xu Huanting's "bear paw" at all, but he was afraid that before it reached his mouth, he would call it on his face first, and he would not be blessed!
Under the pressure of Xu Huanting's female threat, Jiang Yun gritted his teeth and shook his head vigorously.
His appearance made Xu Chengsi happy. This guy gloated: "Yo, he's very fat!" Are you really going to have both? Tsk, don't pee and take pictures, one is the lord of the county, one is the daughter of the government, and if you want to go to one, your ancestral tomb is smoking. He learned Xu Jiye's tone and added slowly: "Young man, you can't be too greedy." ”
"Alright, don't talk about it." Xu Huanting finally found out with her conscience and opened her mouth to solve the siege. "I'm in charge of my own affairs, what kind of mind are you fooling around. What happened to the Guogong Mansion? Isn't it remarkable? What's wrong with being small? I can't stand it, I'm happy. Tell you, you will mind my affairs. There is still something in the barracks, Jiang Yun, let's go. ”
---------------------------
Almost running out of the gate of the Guogong Mansion as if running for his life, Jiang Yun realized that his back was already soaked. He walked a few steps quickly to catch up with Xu Huanting, and quickly took out the earrings and handed them over. "Pay you back."
This thing almost cost him half his life today, and he can't stay alive or dead anymore. The little cheap can't be greedy, and this time it's a lesson.
"What? Know you're going to pay me back? Xu Huanting smiled slightly. It's late! This is a matter of love, husband, you can take it. ”
"Ouch, General Xu, don't make me happy." Jiang Yun hurriedly said: "I'm begging to pay you back, will it be successful?" The villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, so don't worry about me. This kind of joke will never be repeated in the future. ”
"Who was kidding you?" Xu Huanting glanced at Jiang Yun and said lightly: "From today onwards, we are lovers who are about to get engaged." ”
"You haven't had enough?"
"I owe you a favor." Xu Huanting said helplessly: "You just have to cooperate, in the future, in front of mortals, we will have this relationship." You keep the earrings first, and then you will return them to me after you send Ji Yu away and make him completely dead. He's annoyingly tight, but he's a bit special, and now that he's an Overseer, there's nothing I can do about him. This is the only way to do this, so that he will retreat. ”
"Isn't your reputation ruined?"
"You're afraid of ruining your reputation, aren't you?" Xu Huanting said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will say hello to Xiao Luo when I turn around on this matter, and I won't trouble you." ”
"But..."
"Why don't you talk nonsense?" Hades' face turned cold again.
“。。。”
Alas, who is to be provoked. (To be continued.) )
