Chapter Eighty-Seven: Marriage
Gu Chenfeng raised his head and looked at Li Junze, his eyes were complicated and astringent.
Liu Tianye frowned, but asked tentatively, "What does the prince mean?" How to ask for marriage? Is it for a concubine or a wife? I have a word in advance, no matter whether Tingshan agrees or not, I will never let my granddaughter be a concubine! ”
Didn't Wen Jingting just take two concubines? If Li Junze also wanted to do the same, he would never agree. This is also a matter of words, wanting to block Li Junze's mouth. Liu Tianye thought that Zhao Siyan's identity could not be Li Junze's wife.
Li Junze said solemnly: "Boss Liu, don't worry, I treat Miss Zhao sincerely, if it weren't for my wife, I wouldn't have spoken!" ”
Liu Tianye was really surprised at this time, "The prince is not joking?" ”
Zhao Siyan's identity is to be Li Junze's wife, and it is indeed Gao Pan.
Li Junze nodded, and then said: "I am sincere to Miss Zhao, heaven and earth can be learned, and there is no lie!" ”
Liu Tianye and Zhao Tingshan glanced at each other, both of them a little hesitant.
Gu Chenfeng's five fingers were slightly retracted, he looked at Li Junze with a complicated look, and made a decision faintly in his heart.
He also wanted to go to Zhao Tingshan and tell them that he also promised Zhao Siyan in his heart, and he also wanted to ask to marry her, and he was willing to treat him as a wife, and he would do very well, no worse than Li Junze.
He opened his mouth, and just as he was about to speak, Li Junze continued: "Commander Liu, Uncle Zhao, I know that my request is a bit abrupt, but I am now forced to go to Liangshan, and there is no other way. ”
Liu Tianye was taken aback: "How can the prince say this?" ”
Li Junze took out a letter from his arms, "This is what I just received today, a letter sent by my father, and the emperor intends to marry me." ”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked.
The relationship between King Yi's Mansion and the emperor became more and more tense, and the emperor gave Li Junze a marriage at this time, which was obviously ill-intentioned.
Li Junze continued: "The candidate for marriage is the daughter of the military department Shangshu, the military department is the emperor's hardcore confidant, if she is allowed to enter the Yi Wangfu, it will be a nail inserted by the emperor in my Yi Wangfu, so my father said that I have decided to marry at the border in order to refuse." After speaking, he looked at Zhao Tingshan with a pair of shining eyes, and smiled flatteringly: "This is not a lie, Miss Zhao is gentle and virtuous, knowledgeable, and loyal, I want to marry her!" ”
Zhao Tingshan couldn't help but puff up his chest proudly, yes, his daughter is so good and outstanding, but he wants to marry her? Zhao Tingshan was a little unhappy in his heart.
Liu Tianye said: "The prince is in such a hurry to decide on the family affairs in order to refuse the emperor's marriage?" In that case......"
Li Junze's expression was calm, and he arched his hand, with a straight face.
Zhao Siyan and the Liu family soon knew that Li Junze came to propose marriage, and the little maid Lu He who inquired would never miss such a major news.
"But the slave listens, the old man and the old man seem to be reluctant, and they are still embarrassed by the prince!" Green Lotus said.
Liu glanced at Zhao Siyan, Zhao Siyan lowered her gaze, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, revealing her beautiful face, she has a calm temperament, no wonder Li Junze came to the door to propose.
Liu Shi had a headache: "Yanyan, you ......"
"Mother, let's take a look, I'm afraid it's not easy for my father to make decisions about this marriage." Zhao Siyan said calmly.
Liu's headache was even greater, which girl, when she heard that she was not shy about her marriage, but her daughter, she was not nervous at all, and she would plan for her, she was really helpless in her heart.
But what Zhao Siyan said is also right, Zhao Tingshan really can't let Zhao Tingshan be the master of this matter, she also has to check for her daughter.
Liu hurriedly went to the main courtyard.
Zhao Siyan looked out the window a little dazed, her eyes calm.
Yun Cui glanced at Zhao Siyan carefully, "Miss, do you say that the master and the wife will agree?" ”
Zhao Siyan paused for a moment, and then came back to her senses, she said lightly: "Since he is here, he will not give us a chance to refuse." ”
A person like Li Junze, if he doesn't open his mouth, he will never be refused.
"But this is too unruly, how can anyone come to the door to propose marriage." Yun Cui muttered.
Zhao Siyan glanced at her with a smile: "Do you want Prince Yi to come to the door in person?" ”
Yun Cui choked suddenly.
However, Yun Cui understood one thing, her young lady wanted to marry Li Junze.
Zhao Siyan's eyes flashed slightly, since the Liao army was defeated and retreated, she knew that Li Junze would definitely find a way to settle the relationship between the two.
If the war is over, the emperor will definitely free up his time to deal with the Yi Palace, and then the real struggle will be. Li Junze's family affairs will also become the reason for the emperor's attack, and he can only set the marriage of the two before the emperor makes a move.
Li Junze has always been a person who counts as a hundred steps, he has long recognized her, and this is the best time.
It's just that she didn't expect that Li Junze would come so quickly, and he came to the door in person.
Zhao Siyan sat in front of the window, the weather was already warm, the sun was shining warmly on her body, and the flowers in the yard were blooming just right, but she had no intention of appreciating it.
Even if a calm woman is, she can't help but be apprehensive when facing her marriage.
After two hours, Zhao Siyan finally couldn't hold back and went to the main room.
As soon as I walked into the main room, the people in the house came out.
She saw him at first sight.
The prince was specially dressed up today, wearing a cyan brocade robe, his appearance was sparse and handsome, and there was a little less cold front in his sharp eyes, which made him a little more gentle, he stood there, and walked towards her from afar, and in those starry eyes, there was suddenly a temperature.
He gently hooked the corners of his lips at her, his eyes couldn't hide his joy, and Zhao Siyan's heart was determined at once.
She smiled slightly, but her smile revealed a bit of lightheartedness.
Although she had known for a long time that he would definitely do it, she was still apprehensive in her heart, and at this time, she was finally sure that everything was settled, and she couldn't help but relax.
After all, she was upset because that person was upset, so she didn't notice Gu Chenfeng's sad gaze.
Gu Chenfeng raised his head and saw that she and that person were looking at each other, and in their eyes was the depth of affection and tacit understanding that only they understood each other.
At that moment, he finally knew clearly that even without Li Junze's insistence, he would not be able to stand by her side.
All of a sudden, his heart ached. He had experienced the pain of powerlessness many times, but he knew that there was no pain that would make him so unforgettable for the rest of his life.
Zhao Tingshan was unhappy when he saw Zhao Siyan, of course Zhao Siyan was worried about Li Junze, so he came over.
Zhao Tingshan's face sank: "Why did you come out?" Like what words? There are no rules. ”
For the first time, the Liu family did not stand on the side of the husband, but said with a smile: "There are no outsiders, how can there be so much attention?" As she spoke, she also glanced at Li Junze with satisfaction, and her eyes were full of smiles.
Zhao Siyan couldn't help blinking, what's going on? What happened in these two hours? So that her mother didn't even care about her father, and switched to Li Junze's side? You know, this has never happened in the last ten years.
Zhao Tingshan's expression was really even worse.
Liu Tianye laughed: "Yes, yes, it just so happens that I asked people to prepare food, so I will stay here to eat today!" ”
Gu Chenfeng's expression was a little astringent, but he said, "There are still things to deal with in the army, so I'll go back first." ”
Now that they are a family, it is a family banquet, and it is not appropriate for him to stay any longer.
Zhao Tingshan kept him repeatedly, but Gu Chenfeng still insisted on leaving, so he had no choice but to let him go.
Gu Chenfeng's back when he left revealed a lonely color, which made people feel distressed.
He is the son of a family, and it is not an exaggeration to be the proud son of the sky, but now he is sad.
Zhao Tingshan sighed, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw Li Junze looking at Zhao Siyan, and his eyes were so gentle that they were about to drip water.
It's not even a good thing.
On the feast, the Liu family has no rules of eating and not speaking, according to Liu Tianye, their Liu family is a family of military generals, there is no need to follow the rules of the literati, just be at ease.
This is different from the Sun family, the Sun family was born in a merchant, but they are worried that others will think that their family has no background, and they often pay more attention to the rules than those scholarly families.
Li Junze was very close, contrary to the cold and alienated state of the past, the Liu family was more satisfied with him, and even the title was given to Junze from the prince, and Li Junze responded extremely smoothly.
Not only the Liu family, but even the old lady Liu was coaxed by him, and the laughter continued during the period, which made Zhao Siyan stunned.
However, Liu Tianye and Zhao Tingshan looked at him even more unkindly.
After eating, Li Junze said goodbye very happily, and Zhao Siyan had the opportunity to talk to Liu.
Back in the courtyard, Zhao Siyan couldn't wait to look at the Liu family.
"Mother, what's the matter?"
Liu glanced at the eager Zhao Siyan and sighed in his heart. Her daughter has always been calm, but there are times when she can't hold her breath.
She said helplessly, "What's going on?" The prince of this world has said so, what else can your father and I do? After a pause, she couldn't help but say, "Besides, if your father doesn't agree, won't you blame him?" ”
Zhao Siyan's face was slightly red, and she tugged at her sleeve beggingly, but she was puzzled: "But Dad just agreed?" ”
A smile flashed in Liu's eyes.
Mama Li smiled and said, "Can you not agree?" The prince is so sincere, I have lived for so many years, and it is the first time I have seen someone talk to such a point in order to marry! After a pause, she looked at Zhao Siyan: "The prince swore in public, saying that he would only marry a young lady in this life, and he would never have two hearts, otherwise the sky would thunder!" ”
Zhao Siyan was shocked, and looked at the Liu family with a stunned expression.
She knew that Li Junze would have to work hard to persuade Zhao Tingshan, but she didn't expect him to do it like this!
The ancients have always made promises, especially the oath to the heavens, and by doing so, he has completely cut off his own way back.
"Not only that, but the prince was worried that the master would not agree, so he specially wrote a note and handed it over to the master." Xi'er also said.
Zhao Siyan was even more surprised, people say that there is no basis for what they say, this evidence cannot be relied on, and when Li Junze's plan is very big in the future, if he breaks his promise, he will be ridiculed by the world.
How can a man of his word rule the world? Become the lord of the world?
No wonder Zhao Tingshan agreed to the marriage of the two so happily.
Zhao Siyan's heart was sour and astringent, and he couldn't say anything. For the first time since her rebirth, she miscalculated, she thought that Li Junze would promise Zhao Tingshan many benefits in order to achieve her goal, or even coercion and temptation, but she didn't expect that he would use such a simple and pure method.
Sometimes, the most touching thing is actually the simplest, the sincerity of people.
Liu and Zhao Tingshan were very satisfied with Li Junze's performance, and the marriage was naturally decided.
Because King Yi was in Beijing, Li Junze also wrote back to make King Yi clear, and then sent dozens of cars of dowry gifts to Liu's house.
When King Yi's dowry was sent to the Liu family, the people in Dengzhou were still a little puzzled, what was going on? It wasn't until I inquired that I heard that the people in Yiwangfu said that it was a dowry for the future princess.
The Liu family has no daughters, but there is a cousin, Zhao Siyan. And Zhao Siyan is Zhao Tingshan's daughter, and now everyone knows it.
The marriage of Li Junze and Zhao Siyan spread all over Dengzhou at once, and the entire Dengzhou was shocked.
However, some people feel that maybe it's like Wen Jingting marrying He Bingyan and Zhao Siyin, but it's just a concubine, but soon some people understand that if it's a concubine, why does Prince Yi attach so much importance to it? And personally sent a dowry gift from Beijing? This is for the wife!
Everyone had a sense of sudden realization, no wonder Li Junze valued Zhao Tingshan so much, it turned out to be like this.
It's really better to be born well than to do a good job, and having a good daughter is to get twice the result with half the effort.
But there was one man, who was happy and sad at the same time.
This person is Sun Fugui. He knew that Li Junze looked at Zhao Tingshan differently, so he married the Zhao family early, which was a good thing, and if it went well, he would now be considered to be close to Li Junze. According to Li Junze's concern for Zhao Siyan, their Sun family will be loyal to Li Junze, and they will definitely be able to get a lot of light in the future.
But now, it's all over! How could Chen Wanying be so good at his good deeds?!
The only thing that can comfort him a little is that his once steadfast team can finally redeem a good impression.
After hearing the news, Sun Fugui immediately asked Mrs. Sun to prepare a set of makeup to send to the Liu family, which was a blessing to the bride, and no one would refuse.
The marriage of Li Junze and Zhao Siyan was thus decided, and the two families exchanged Geng posts step by step, because Li Junze did not have elders by his side, and everything was handled by Mrs. Liu.
Because of this incident, Li Junze also went to Liu's house on purpose, and really asked Mrs. Liu, which shows the importance he attaches to Zhao Siyan.
Then Mrs. Zhao fell ill.
That was supposed to be her scenery, that was her granddaughter, her grandson-in-law! But now it has nothing to do with her!
Originally, when Zhao Wenxi took the first exam, she had a heartache once, she originally thought that the next time should be when Zhao Wenxi was in the exam, but she didn't expect that it would come so quickly and so painfully!
Zhao Siyin married Wen Jingting, which was originally a good marriage, but now, Zhao Siyin has fallen out of favor and become an outcast, not to mention bringing glory to the Zhao family. But Zhao Siyan is different, she is a wife!
The people of the Zhao family moved their minds again, wanting to get Zhao Tingshan back.
This is the request made by the patriarch of the Zhao family to the Zhao family.
The patriarch taught Zhao Dexiu a hard lesson, saying that he was short-sighted and expelled such a good descendant from the clan, but now it is cheaper for outsiders, so he asked him to invite Zhao Tingshan back quickly.
Zhao Dexiu was full of reluctance, he was the one who drove people out at the beginning, and now he wants to invite people back, isn't that a slap in the face? He felt that he could not afford to lose this man.
So Zhao Dexiu thought of a way, if Zhao Tingshan took the initiative to come back, wouldn't it be a fulfillment of his face?
Then Zhao Dexiu and Mrs. Zhao were both sick.
Then, Zhao Tingxu found Zhao Tingshan and asked him to go back to visit his parents.
"My mother has been talking nonsense, calling your name, she is awake less and less now, as long as she wakes up, she will look for you, and when she can't see you, she will cry silently, and her eyes will cry." Zhao Tingxu said gloomily: "And Dad, although he didn't say it, I can see that he is very uncomfortable...... Tingshan, even if there are many of them, but he gave birth to you and raised you once, do you really want to be so ruthless? ”
Zhao Tingshan frowned: "They may not be willing to see me." ”
Zhao Tingxu said angrily: "What are you talking about? How can a parent not love their children? Is it really as those people say, you have climbed to the prince of the world, and you can no longer look down on our poor relatives? ”
Zhao Tingxu stopped Zhao Tingshan in front of the city gate, people came and went, and they all stopped to watch the excitement, after all, Zhao Tingshan has been beautiful recently, and his daughter is going to marry Li Junze as his wife.
Hearing the conversation between the two, they both stopped and pointed at them.
Zhao Tingshan looked at Zhao Tingxu quietly, and his eyes made Zhao Tingxu a little uneasy.
In fact, Zhao Tingshan didn't mean anything else, he just admired his daughter again, and sure enough, as his daughter expected, the people of the Zhao family really came to the door.
He sighed, thought of what Zhao Siyan taught him, and said sincerely: "It's not that I don't want to go back with you, it's just that I made a vow on the day I left that I will only return to the Zhao family on the day of the second hundred years, although they kicked me out of the house, but I still miss their nurturing grace in my heart, I really don't dare to curse my biological parents, I don't go back is good for them!" ”
Zhao Tingxu was dumbfounded when he heard this, he looked at Zhao Tingshan with a distressed expression, and he almost couldn't tell whether what he said was true or false.
At this moment, it seemed that he was forcibly called back to the Zhao family, but it was like looking forward to the early death of Mrs. Zhao and Zhao Dexiu.
When Zhao Tingxu was stunned, Zhao Tingshan had already covered his face and turned away, with a sad face that couldn't bear it, and the passers-by were stunned.
By the time Zhao Tingxu came back to his senses, Zhao Tingshan had already walked away.
