Chapter 186: Marriage Contract
Cheng Xi, who originally planned to go out to sell things, finally followed Xu Sanlang back, Cheng Xi sat on the chair in the study, looked at Xu Sanlang standing aside, and then looked at Ah Yi standing in front, and said, "Say, there is something else to hide from me." ”
Xu Sanlang glared at Ah Yi, the meaning was self-evident, and let Ah Yi say, as soon as Ah Yi opened his mouth, Xu Sanlang regretted it, because Ah Yi only said one sentence, and then lowered his head, "The master has a marriage contract with the young lady of the Zhao family." ”
Seeing that Cheng Xi's expression on his face was getting darker and darker, Xu Sanlang couldn't wait to step forward and kick Ah Yi a few times, but when Xu Sanlang asked Ah Yi to speak, he didn't think about it, Ah Yi had the same temperament as him, he was silent and talked little, and of course he was talking to the point.
But at this time, he was explaining to Cheng Xi, how could he just talk about the key points and not speak? Xu Sanlang hurriedly squeezed to Cheng Xi's side, grabbed Cheng Xi's hand and began to explain, "That's not the case. ”
I accidentally saw Ah Yi, who had his head down, still peeking at them curiously, so Xu Sanlang raised his head with a gloomy face and said, "You go out first." ”
Ah Yi was very sorry and glanced at the two of them again, then turned to leave, and when he walked to the door, he heard the master's voice from inside again, "Bring the door shut." ”
Ah Yi was reluctant to close the door, but he stood at the door and did not leave, although he couldn't see it, it was not bad to hear it, but as soon as he thought about it in his heart, he heard the master's voice from inside again, "Get away." ”
So Ah Yi's rare gossip was completely stifled by his master.
There was no movement outside, and Xu Sanlang took Cheng Xi's hand again, and explained, "Xi'er, my marriage contract with that Miss Zhao family is completely the decision of King Rui and them, I don't plan to go back, how can I agree to that inexplicable marriage contract." ”
Cheng Xi didn't bother to get angry with Xu Sanlang at this time, anyway, it was none of his business, he just looked at Xu Sanlang, and asked curiously, "Isn't this royal taboo about twins?" Why do you want to go back now? Have you been betrothed to be married? ”
Xu Sanlang was stunned, but he didn't keep up with Cheng Xi's jumping thoughts for a while, but he heard Cheng Xi's tone of voice and didn't seem to have any signs of anger, but he was relieved, and he couldn't care if he should say any secrets at this time, so he answered, "The reason for the royal taboo twins is because of the ancestor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Zhou Hui, who had a twin brother, originally had deep feelings, but turned against him because he liked the same woman, and the woman eventually became the queen of Emperor Zhou Hui, and Emperor Zhou Hui successfully hugged the beauty, but he was ashamed of his younger brother, I wanted to make up for it in other places, rich rewards, fertile fiefs, the king of Qi hibernated in the fief for many years, and finally reversed, and its strength was actually comparable to the imperial court, resulting in the Great Zhou Dynasty continuing to fight for nearly eight years. ”
Cheng Xi couldn't help but sigh when he heard it, "Tut-tut, it's really a sentence of trouble." ”
Xu Sanlang said, "But Emperor Zhou Hui didn't think so, when the war was calmed down, the national strength of the Great Zhou was greatly damaged, and the surrounding forces were even more eyeing the Great Zhou, and Emperor Zhou Hui also completely hated his younger brother, and then he made a rule, and the royal family had twins, and only one of them was allowed to stay." ”
Cheng Xi responded, "Emperor Hui's mind is a little innocent this week, he and his younger brother are actually blamed for the entanglement caused by the fight for women?" ”
Xu Sanlang heard Cheng Xi's mouth openly, and he was very helpless, fortunately, there were no outsiders here, but he didn't dare to correct Cheng Xi at this time, and only opened his mouth to change the topic, "Actually, many years have passed since this incident, and Ge Shu and I are not the heirs to the throne, but the Empress Dowager Murong has been staring, bent on finding an opportunity to get rid of the thorn in the side of King Rui, our birth just gave the Empress Dowager Murong a chance, and then ......"
Cheng Xi picked up Xu Sanlang's words, "After that, you became a victim and were sent to Shiqiao Village?" ”
Xu Sanlang nodded, Cheng Xi pursed his lips and muttered, "It's really too much, when there was danger, I kicked you away as a victim, and when you were useful, I found you back." Is the support of the Zhao family also related to this marriage contract? ”
Xu Sanlang frowned slightly when he thought of this, anyway, Cheng Xi who should know and shouldn't know almost all knew it, and Xu Sanlang didn't plan to continue to hide it from Cheng Xi, so he said, "It's not, the Zhao family and the Rui Wangfu both want to help the current emperor overthrow the dictatorship of his relatives, because Zhao Yan's eldest sister is the current Zhao Guifei." The marriage contract between the Zhao family and the Rui Wangfu was originally set for Ge Shu, after all, no one knew that Ge Shu had a brother like me before, of course, this marriage contract was only made orally between the Zhao family and the Rui Wangfu. The reason why it fell on my head was because the Xue family suddenly stepped in sideways. ”
Cheng Xi was puzzled, "What is the background of the Xue family?" ”
Xu Sanlang said, "Another hero who overthrew the Murong clan is the Xue family, whose head is now Xue Haizheng, the general of the current dynasty, and his daughter is the current queen. ”
Cheng Xi's eyes widened, "This is the overthrow of a Murong clan with the dictatorship of a foreign relative, and another Xue family is coming?" ”
Xu Sanlang responded, "The emperor is also worried that the Xue family will learn from the Murong clan, so he promotes the Zhao family like this, and even favors Zhao Guifei in the harem and snubs the queen, just so that the Zhao family and the Xue family can check and balance each other, this Xue family began to worry, as soon as I heard that the Zhao family and the Xue family still have a marriage contract, they thought of a way, and asked the emperor to give the Xue family's daughter and Ge Shu a marriage, so that the Xue family and the Rui Wangfu became in-laws, this Zhao family is a step slower, there is nothing to do, but the Zhao family already knows my existence, the marriage contract between the Rui Wangfu and the Zhao family, the Zhao family thinks, Rightfully so, it should fall on my head. ”
Cheng Xi was speechless, "The Rui Wangfu is not good at offending the Xue family and resisting the emperor's refusal to marry, and it doesn't want to offend the Zhao family, so it simply acquiesced to the Zhao family's idea, so you inexplicably had a marriage contract with that Miss Zhao family?" ”
Xu Sanlang nodded and praised, "Xi'er is very smart, I guessed it without saying anything." ”
Cheng Xi waved his hand, "It's not the point that I have a marriage contract inexplicably, the point is how I met Miss Zhao's family?" Even if you have a marriage contract inexplicably, Miss Zhao shouldn't chase you to this Cloud City? ”
Xu Sanlang honestly explained, "When I was in the capital, I lived in the Zhao family for a while, so I ......"
Cheng Xi glared at Xu Sanlang and said with a disgusted expression, "You said that you were just a piece of wood, why didn't people fall in love with Ge Shu and fall in love with you?" I can actually chase you to Cloud City for this piece of wood. ”
Xu Saburo replied sullenly, "I don't know." ”
There were girls chasing after him, Xu Sanlang didn't feel happy, but looked depressed, which made Cheng Xi a little funny, and after listening to the ins and outs, he couldn't get angry with Xu Sanlang.
Thinking that Zhao Yan was there, this person couldn't hide after all, so he asked, "What kind of character does this Miss Zhao have?" ”
Xu Sanlang thought for a while before responding, "Because her sister is Zhao Guifei, she is a little unreasonable." ”
Cheng Xi thought about it, being rude and unreasonable is better than the scheming White Lotus, and then looked at Xu Sanlang, "Then what are you going to do?" ”
Xu Sanlang said, "I have made it clear to Zhao Yan that he will go back and tell the Zhao family that I don't plan to go back to the Rui Wangfu, and I will not have anything to do with the Rui Wangfu in the future, and I have already married you. ”
Seeing Cheng Xi frowning, Xu Sanlang hurriedly said again, "But don't worry, Zhao Yan is here, that's his sister, let him watch it." ”
figured out the ins and outs and knew what was going on, although this matter was really not to blame Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi was not a very unreasonable person, but he couldn't help but sneer, "You are capable, first disappeared for a few years without any news, this finally came back, and provoked such a difficult peach blossom to come back." ”
Xu Saburo explained helplessly, "I really never provoked her, and I always tried to take a detour when I saw her." ”
Cheng Xi looked at Xu Sanlang's innocent look, and he couldn't bear to worry about him anymore, so he sighed and said, "Forget it, let's go, let's go to our street, and then go back to Lihua Village tomorrow." ”
Xu Sanlang observed Cheng Xi's expression and breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was annoyed that Ah Yi had a lot of things, and he came when he came, so let Zhao Yan send it away, why did he stop them at the door and say it, which scared him a lot.
Cheng Xi walked to the door and saw that Xu Sanlang was still standing in place, and urged, "Let's go, aren't you going?" ”
Xu Sanlang hurriedly followed Cheng Xi and responded, "Go." ”
All the way to the door, Ah Yi didn't appear again, Xu Sanlang said in his heart, "This kid is very interesting now, so he won't be an eyesore." ”
When he went out, Xu Sanlang understood why Ah Yi stopped at the door and told him, and at the same time made a note to Ah Yi in his heart again, didn't this kid know how to finish his words?
Cheng Xi looked at the woman who was pulling and pulling with Zhao Yan not far away, with a bright red dress, with a bright and moving face, just like the sun in the sky, it was really dazzling tight, watching the woman shake off Zhao Yan and hold her hand, and ran towards this side with a bright smile, Cheng Xi said to Xu Sanlang on the side, "This is the Miss Zhao family?" ”
Xu Sanlang frowned slightly, and hummed softly, and at this time, the woman in red had already arrived in front of the two.
Miss Zhao didn't seem to see Cheng Xi, with a bright smile on her face, she ran over and grabbed Xu Sanlang's arm, and the crisp voice in her mouth also chirped, "Brother Zihao, I knew you were here, hmph, my brother lied to me that you weren't there, Brother Liar, Brother Zihao, why don't you tell me if you go, I finally found out your whereabouts, so I chased from the capital to Yuecheng, and rushed to Yuncheng from Yuecheng, Brother Zihao, you don't know ......"
The originally crisp voice fell on Xu Sanlang's ears, but it made him very irritable, and he tried to pull his arm out of Miss Zhao's arms, and then interrupted the chirping voice in his ear, "Miss Zhao, please respect yourself." ”
The corners of Cheng Xi's lips were originally pursed, and he only stretched slightly after seeing Xu Sanlang pull out his arm, and then Cheng Xi went over to Xu Sanlang's side, grabbed Xu Sanlang's other arm, and said to Xu Sanlang with a smile, "Xianggong, who is this girl?" ”
