Chapter 75: On the Agenda
Β·
Zuo Zhe was already very intelligent, and now with his fiancΓ©e's experience in traveling south and north and his father's strong support, he is concentrating on research in the Wang Li Library. Not only in magic, but also in archaeology, astronomy, and many other aspects. This innate and acquired condition is beyond the reach of many scholars.
During the dinner, the two teenagers almost forgot that there was a female companion, and they talked happily.
Yuan Huang listened to the other party's talk about the "Theory of the Circle of the Earth and the Center of the Earth" for a long time, and admired the five-body throw. This is really a great discovery across the century, and it is well-founded. But it is also true that as Zuo Zhe fears, once it is published, it will inevitably provoke a fierce backlash from the academic community - no one will believe that the earth is actually round.
This is not the most surprising to Yuanhuang.
"Magic Karakuri used to be nicknamed "science" hundreds of years ago, but now almost no one knows about it. Although they are superstitious groups, they do have some amazing technology. Energy is always an issue, though. Without the power of magic crystals, no matter how delicate the mechanism is, it is at most a child's toy. β
Yuan Huang was dumbfounded.
"Brother Yuanhuang, I can take you to the royal city when I have time. There's also a big toy store there, which is owned by Karakuri devotees, and there are many intriguing knick-knacks, and the workmanship is really fine. β
Gunpowder? Zuo Zhe has never heard of it.
Dynamo? What is that.
Gun? Unheard-of.
Compared to Jozhe's excitement, Yuan Huang fell into deep thought. He plans to visit the toy store when he has a chance to find out the secrets of science.
Suddenly, he noticed that Zozhe was spinning something like a quill in his hand, but there was no pointed tip, let alone goose feathers. It's made of all-metal and incredibly delicate.
β¦β¦ No way. Why is this thing so familiar?
"Excuse me, what's in your hand?"
"Huh? The gift from Miao Se seems to be a pen dug up from some ruins. You don't have to get ink in it to write, so it's very convenient. β
Jozhe's face is full of showing off, and Yuanhuang is full of mother's heart to sell batches. Isn't this the tiny metal rod that Di Zhixue stole from the spaceship? What a relic treasure, it's stolen goods, damn it! What a miracle! Give your boyfriend something from him?
On the other side, the two ladies were also chatting in a low voice.
"When are you getting married?"
"In fact, Dong Shangjue doesn't agree very much, and always thinks that women's families shouldn't go south and north, it's too spicy." Miao Se bowed her head and groaned, feeling a sense of sympathy. Most of the marriages of aristocratic families are troublesome. "What about you?"
"Dad has some problems, and the marriage is far away." Xiao Youxiang suddenly asked, "I've always been curious about one thing. As a chivalrous man, if you marry Jozhe, when he inherits the title of Shangjue, won't your chivalrous lord be automatically lost? Isn't this a great loss of land for nothing? β
Miao Se's face immediately darkened when he heard this. It was purely a coincidence that she fell in love with Sazu, and she didn't know that the other party was the son of Dong Shangjue at that time. Because there are strict laws on overlapping titles, in the case of her, the woman's lower titles will be automatically discarded. This is a loss-making thing, and it will also disturb the situation and not be favored by the above. Her love with Zuozhe is not favored by others, and this incident is also a big reason.
Probably unhappy to be asked, Miao Se deliberately asked a question that should not be asked: "Miss, how did you get involved with that crazy woman of Sister Bed?" β
"Fate?" Xiao Youxiang stood up after hearing this, "I still have to say goodbye in advance." β
After that, Xiao Youxiang and Miao Se broke up unhappily, and pulled Yuanhuang away.
Yuanhuang hasn't talked enough with idols! But the business is done, and you can also use the communication scroll to contact you when you have something. So he was dragged away by Xiao Youxiang.
Surrounded by the guards, he left the library and headed straight for the teleporter.
"Where?"
"Go home."
"It's fine."
"What, it's back to my house to see my parents!"
Yuan Huang turned around and walked back. Xiao Youxiang clapped her hands without looking back, and a burly female guard immediately carried Yuan Huang on her shoulders and continued to walk towards the teleportation station.
"You're kidnapping!"
"I'm going to see you sooner or later, don't be shy. Everyone has finished running errands with you, what's wrong with you accompanying others? β
I don't want to get entangled with the aristocracy! Let me go! If he hadn't been worried about goofs, he would have kicked the female guard with a metal prosthetic leg a long time ago.
into the transfer station.
Out of the transfer station.
In front of you is the gate of the courtyard of the small fragrance's mansion, which is super close, and it is worthy of the name "just a blink of an eye".
Xiao Youxiang asked the maids to bring large bags of gifts as she walked, and those were all meeting gifts prepared by Dai Yuanhuang. For my father, I gave it to my father, and I gave it to my mother, and I gave it to my mother, all of which were not expensive things that catered to my heart, and it was too expensive to look like it was prepared by Yuanhuang.
A very formal visit, the whole process of polite greetings without a word of truth, whether it is parents or Xiao Youxiang is full of empty mouths. Yuan Huang also followed with a perfunctory smile on his face. During the half-hour "meeting", what he said was useless, and he didn't remember a word. He only knew that the Teleportation Emperor was polite, but in fact, he didn't look down on the Origin Phoenix at all in his heart. That attitude is still at the level of "old friend's pet". It's already very face-saving to not speak sarcastically, probably because of the blessing of Xiao Youxiang.
That's why he hates to have dealings with nobles.
Half an hour was wasted, and I felt uncomfortable but found nothing. But in the end, I endured it patiently. Because of artifact fragments. That's because of this. Of course, there are benefits to taking the daughter of the noble, but Yuanhuang doesn't care about this, and feels that it is not worth sharpening his head to be a son-in-law.
When he finally walked out of the Chungjue's mansion, he breathed a deep sigh of relief as if the torture was over.
β¦β¦ Do I really want to marry Xiao Yuxiang?
Xiao Youxiang suddenly stuck to Yuan Huang's side, lowered her head and asked, "Do you remember the three conditions that Dad mentioned?" β
Ability to earn money, earn knighthoods, and befriend one of the loyalists.
Xiao Youxiang stared at Yuan Huang's eyes, and said very seriously: "I have a way to deal with the affairs of the chivalrous lord." As long as the head of the temple snake marries Jozhe, and Jozhe inherits the title of Dongshang Jue from his father, then Miao Se's chivalrous title will be automatically abolished. I will find a way to help you fight for the vacant places. β
Really?
"I can invest in you, do you want to open a store? Anything goes. In this way, the conditions for "making money" can be achieved. β
Really......
"Zhongjue's business is a bit difficult. In addition to the other three people of Dad, only the big boss of the Nikoyid Business Group still has some hope. That loyalist is a bad guy, but it's easy to get in touch with the right way. I'll think about it again. β
β¦β¦
Yuan Huang looked at the girl snuggled in his arms, seriously planning about the future of the two of them, and suddenly his nose was sour.
Why I want to cry, I can't say it myself.
If you ...... At the beginning, she could also have one-tenth of Xiao Youxiang, but the energy phoenix would not have suffered three years in vain.
He touched Xiao Youxiang's head: "Okay, I'll figure it out myself." I'm a man, after all. "I thought this handsome was doing a good job, but Xiao Youxiang didn't listen to it at all after being moved. What she wanted to do, God couldn't persuade her.
In short, Yuan Huang officially put the achievement of three conditions to marry Xiao Youxiang on the agenda.
I did this for the sake of artifact shards. Well, just for the artifact shards.
