Chapter 160: The curtain opens

On the road leading to Jinling, a large group of stern cavalry galloped forward, and the first person was Shao Shan, and behind Shao Shan were 800 soldiers he had personally selected.

According to the etiquette system of the Great Liang, Shaoshan's Jingbian Marquis Mansion can recruit 800 government soldiers, in the past few years, Jingbian Houfu is indeed difficult, can not afford to raise government soldiers, and since the rise of Shaoshan, although the situation has improved greatly, but Jingbian Houfu still does not have the intention of recruiting government soldiers.

On the one hand, Shao Shan knew very well that when he recruited government soldiers, that is, when the major forces planted people in the Jingbian Hou Mansion, on the other hand, ordinary government soldiers really couldn't get into Shao Shan's eyes.

This time back to Beijing, Shao Shan directly brought 800 elite soldiers, these people have been removed from the military registration of the Shangyang Army, and these people will be the government soldiers of the Jingbian Hou Mansion in the future, this move can be described as killing two birds with one stone, not only to avoid the secret hands of the major forces, but also to have strong combat effectiveness of the government soldiers.

And just during this period of time, another news has also spread all over the world, causing a surge, that is, Emperor Liang is going to publicly choose a son-in-law for the Nihuang County Lord.

The lord of Nihuang County has been in charge of the southern border for ten years, and the 100,000 iron horsemen in the southern border obey her, intimidating Nanchu from daring to act rashly, and the Mu Wangfu in Yunnan is like a prince.

Mu Qing, the prince of Yunnan, was already an adult last month, and now the Nihuang county lord has reached the age of twenty-seven, and it is time to get married, but the identity of the Nihuang county lord is too special, if anyone can marry the Nihuang county lord, it is tantamount to one step to the sky.

The criteria for choosing a son-in-law are even more simple and clear, the family background is innocent, the age is the same, the character is good, and he has never married a wife.

Therefore, since the news came out, it can be said that there are many followers, from high-ranking officials and magnates, sons of families, to ordinary people, all of whom are reckless, and they all want to show their skills in order to hold the beauty.

Even several neighboring countries of Daliang, Dayu, Beiyan, and Yeqin all sent envoys to seek relatives, carrying the letters of their respective emperors, and marched towards Jinling.

Although everyone knew that it was impossible for Emperor Liang to marry the Lord of Nihuang County to other countries, after all, it would be tantamount to weakening himself and increasing the strength of other countries, and Emperor Liang would not be so stupid.

However, Dayu and Beiyan and other countries still came with the intention of luck, after all, this time it is an open competition to choose a son-in-law, and all countries have prepared a backhand to come and give it a go, and even if it is not successful, there is not much loss, and once it succeeds, it is tantamount to marrying a military wizard, and the name will be loud in an instant.

And now the situation in various countries is a little turbulent, and there are several factions competing for the position of the prince to the death, if the prince marries the lord of Nihuang, it is tantamount to holding the crown prince in his own hands in advance.

Emperor Liang was so anxious to marry the Nihuang County Lord, it was nothing more than to be afraid of the power of Yunnan Mu Wangfu, once the Nihuang County Lord got married, he naturally had to follow his husband and could not return to Yunnan.

Emperor Liang's jealousy of Mu Wangfu is so strong that he can't even take care of the deterrent effect of the Nihuang County Lord on Nanchu, he will not know that once the Nihuang County Lord marries and leaves Yunnan, the deterrence of Mu Wangfu and Yunnan's 100,000 iron cavalry on Southern Chu will definitely drop to the lowest point, and it is not impossible for Nanchu to commit crimes, but Emperor Liang still did it.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Shao Shan's mouth, looked in the direction of Jinling, and said to himself: "I want to see if you dare to marry when the time comes!" ”

Chixia County, about 200 miles away from Jinling, is also a necessary place to enter and exit Jinling, so although it is only a county seat, but when it comes to the degree of prosperity, it is not ordinary, the county has all kinds of facilities, and there are many restaurants.

At this time, Shao Shan took two retinues into the largest restaurant in Chixia City, while the other soldiers stayed in the post house to rest.

On the second floor of the restaurant, Shao Shan sat by the railing, overlooking the busy crowd below, and on a table next to him, two attendants were eating quietly.

Suddenly, a noisy shout came.

"Surround this restaurant for me, and no one in it can leave!"

"Oh, my lords, what's going on?" Xiao Er of the restaurant hurriedly stepped forward with a smile on his face and asked.

"Hmph, what's the matter?" An arrogant figure appeared on the second floor, squinting at Xiao Er, "My Da Yu's courtship mission just lost something when I checked in with you, can you afford it?" ”

"Oh, master, you can't wronged people, our restaurant has been in business for twenty years, and nothing like this has ever happened, are you mistaken?" The shopkeeper of the restaurant ran up when he heard the news and said with a smile on his face.

"Wrong fart, Lao Tzu's stuff was lost here!" The arrogant figure shouted, "No one here today wants to leave, they must go through our inspection one by one, and if I can't find anything, I will demolish your restaurant!" ”

"Hey, uncles, how do you do business in the small shop!" The shopkeeper pleaded with a bitter face.

"I don't care, that's your business!" The arrogant figure waved his hand and ordered, "Search me one by one, no one can be spared!" ”

Suddenly, a large group of wolf-like soldiers rushed in, rushing towards the entire restaurant, and a few unlucky eggs were directly pressed on the table, and they were comprehensively searched.

Shao Shan knew the identity of these people after a little thought, it was the envoy of Da Yu, and the arrogant figure was the envoy of the mission, and the master who had been standing beside the envoy should be the deputy envoy of Da Yu, and he was also the figure on the list of Langya masters, the fifth-ranked golden eagle Chai Ming, and at this time, their actions should be because the national letter of courtship was lost.

"You, stand up and be examined!" Soon, the two Great Yu soldiers arrived at Shaoshan's table, and their weapons knocked on the table and shouted.

"Get out!" Shao Shan said without raising his head.

"Boy, you're quite arrogant, don't toast and don't eat and drink, the knife in grandpa's hand is not long-eyed!" The Great Yu soldier drew his saber, and the sharp tip of the knife almost pointed at Shao Shan's nose.

"Break your hands and feet and throw it out!" Shao Shan's face sank like water, and he said in a deep voice.

"Haha, kid, aren't you crazy, Lao Tzu will ......" The two Dayu soldiers were still shouting, but what greeted them was the most cruel ending.

"Click, Click, Click......"

A few crisp bones, accompanied by a terrible scream, instantly alarmed the entire restaurant, and when everyone looked over, the scene in front of them made everyone stunned.

A young man calmly poured himself a drink by the window, and beside him, two sturdy figures threw the two Dayu soldiers who were all hands and feet and screamed miserably directly from the window on the second floor.

There are only two words in everyone's hearts: arrogance!
