Chapter 7 Is Running Away from Marriage Popular?
Ge Sheng's thoughts were soon interrupted by a second person.
It's not Ah Che, it's the guards not far away.
"Hey, you two little ones, hurry up if you want to get into town." The guard guarding at the city gate looked at them and smiled, this silver-armored uncle had a simple face: "You are also here to apply for the academy?" Benefit a silver horn. β
Make it like we are your customers, Ge Sheng complained in his heart while paying for it.
Ge Sheng, who had handed over a silver horn to enter the city, remembered the very important matter of flesh pain: "Eating people, this is, Lanyin City only accepts a copper, and it has simply increased a hundred times here." β
Later, Ge Sheng and Ye Qing entered Lanyin City to continue purchasing and "setting up stalls", and Ge Sheng, who had a clear concept of money, on the one hand, admired the heroic behavior of the Third Highness at that time, and also began to develop a sense of frugality.
"When you become a student of the academy, you don't have to pay this entrance fee." Ah Che, who placed the white cat on her shoulder, said with a smile that she had taken out a silver horn from a small purple silk sac - which showed that her family background was quite good: "Ye Ye City is too quiet, and there are too many people who want to visit this legendary city, which is also a good way." β
The two of them were in Yeye City at the moment, and as soon as they entered the city, they saw several snow-white towers reaching into the sky, which looked extremely majestic from a distance. And under the foot is snow-white Rhine stone, this precious stone can almost be equivalent to silver, on weekdays only those big nobles are qualified to use in their own manor annex, here it is an ordinary paving stone, I don't know whether to feel this Yeye ancient city is rich or tyrannical.
Correspondingly, there are very few pedestrians in such a luxurious and wide street, and it is even said that there are only two of them in the whole street as far as the eye can see.
On both sides of the street are two rows of elegant and delicate street lamps, magic lamps, the lamp type is the shape of a swan with wings spreading, and then to both sides are villa-style houses of different styles, but without exception the doors are closed, as if no one is close to the posture.
That's all there is, but there's more to it than that.
Lan Che was stunned and saw the person who seemed to have been waiting at the city gate for a long time.
"Ah Che, you're really here!" The man spoke with a slight smile, and seemed very satisfied with the result: "It's really easy for me to find, it's so unruly." β
Then Ah Che directly grabbed Ge Sheng's arm almost reflexively, although Ge Sheng's child was a year younger than him, but the double ponytail girl at this moment was obviously frightened in some way.
Ge Sheng looked up, but saw a man in Tsing Yi standing quietly in front of the two, as if he had been waiting for a long time, he looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, his body was quite strong, his face was handsome, and his body was a finely made silk casual clothes that were not eye-catching.
But he couldn't stop the innate pride, he gracefully saluted Ge Sheng, showing a full aristocratic demeanor: "The contemptible surname is Lan Mingzhu, and he is the third generation of the fourth family surnamed Lan, and the one behind your Excellency is my fiancΓ©e, because of some contradictions, we are separated, please return her to me." β
If you are an ordinary person, you will be half crispy when you hear this blue word.
You must know that the daughter of the proud city lord was also forced to bend her knees because of the family crest surnamed Lan.
This is a surname that is somehow more terrifying than the Lanye royal family, because the meaning and power behind him are more real than the illusory imperial power.
But this person is Ge Sheng, he once fought with Princess Lan Yejiu, and once ate in the same stove with Prince Sturt, and even grabbed fish fillets with ancient sages and worshiped his master.
If you talk about the field of seeing the world, there are few people in the world who can compare with Ge Sheng's children.
Ge Sheng took Ah Che behind him: "Lanzhu Gongzi?" What proof do you have for what you say? β
Lan Zhuzheng was surprised that he showed his identity neither softly nor hard, and gave him enough steps, even if this was Ye Ye City, few people dared to question a person surnamed Lan so blatantly.
Therefore, the son surnamed Lan frowned slightly, his heart was slightly annoyed, and he was about to speak, but he saw Ah Che poking his head out from behind Ge Sheng: "Lan Zhu, my father didn't agree, don't talk nonsense here." β
Lan Zhu smiled: "Lord Lan Yi will naturally agree, but the young lady ran away from home without permission, and it is always unruly." β
Ah Che stomped his feet and said, "Do you just let your family bully, I don't like you." β
Ge Sheng finally figured it out, to put it simply, this Lanzhu forced a marriage to Ah Che's family under certain circumstances, and Ah Che's father couldn't directly refuse for some very important reason.
But Ah Che didn't want to follow like this, so he ran out and wanted to hide in Ye Ye Academy, after all, this academy has a special status that can ignore the imperial power, so it can easily avoid the forced marriage of that Lan Zhu, and Ah Che's family can naturally use the high-sounding excuse that the young lady is not at home now.
It seems that even wealthy families have some grievances and difficult things to do.
Lan Zhu was confident: "Ah Che don't think that you can be safe by hiding in the academy, you must already know the difficulties of your family, if there is no relief and help from our fourth family, I am afraid that in the imperial capital, there will be no place for your family within three years." β
Lan Che's face flushed slightly, and he said angrily: "You, you, don't push people too much." β
Lan Zhu was not in a hurry: "Ah Che's words are wrong, you and I have known each other since childhood, and I, Lan, have naturally seen Miss Xinyi, besides, this is just an engagement, not a forced political marriage, is Miss not even willing to make this little sacrifice for the sake of the family?" β
Ge Sheng was completely caught in a streetlight state.
How would he speak in such a situation? He is not Ye Xiaojiu, he can reach out and take out the big killer of home travel and self-defense from his arms, Qianye Liubi, and said: "Princess Lanye Jiu is here, quickly abolish the marriage contract of Er, Qin here." β
He's just Ge Sheng, a twelve- or thirteen-year-old boy with no identity or background - of course, you can forcibly count the Ge family in Lanyin City - mixed in with this kind of battle between wealthy families, no matter how you look at it, it's all the role of passerby A.
Ache stood behind him, sad but speechless.
Ge Sheng looked at Ah Che, who was no longer the cute one of the original elves, and then looked at the smug Lanzhu in front of him.
He should hesitate, he is not qualified not to hesitate.
But the boy at this moment did not hesitate at all, he calmly reached out to cover Ah Che and bit his lip slightly.
His words are calm, but his content is not.
On the contrary, it is very resolute.
Not because he is Ye Qing's elder brother, nor because he is a disciple of a saint.
Just because he's Ge Sheng, that's all.
So he said:
"She's not going to go with you."
