Chapter 242: Dowry Ceremony (I)
As soon as he saw that the Great Elder had spoken, Qian Ji hated it, and flicked his sleeves and said, "I'll give the Great Elder a face." ( . . )”
As he spoke, he turned around and walked behind him, where there was also a seat like Su Moyu.
"The old man never expected that last night's incident would be so troublesome. The old man is here to say sorry again. The Great Elder's ordinary tone slowly spread over the main hall.
Su Moyu was expressionless, just looked at Qianji opposite coldly.
And Qian Ji arched his hand in the direction of the Great Elder, and said, "The Great Elder doesn't have to mind a little thing. ”
The Great Elder nodded slightly, changed his words, and said, "The two Highnesses came to my White Feather Clan at the same time, both to propose to the queen of our clan. ”
As soon as they heard the Great Elder mention Lou Lan's marriage, Su Moyu and Qianji turned their heads to look at the Great Elder at the same time.
"The Queen is the Queen of my White Feather Clan. Similarly, the Queen's marriage is also a major event for my White Feather clan. Therefore, for the queen's husband, it is not only necessary for her to agree, but also to satisfy most of my white feather clan. ”
When he said this, he glanced at Su Moyu with his eyes, and then said slowly: "Both of them have the blood of kings, and they are both geniuses that are rare in thousands of years, it is really not easy to choose one person from the two, for this reason, I have carefully discussed with the queen yesterday for a whole day, and I have not come up with a solution for both worlds." In the end, we can only think of a stupid way, the old man wants to see the dowry prepared by the two of you for the marriage proposal, and see which one is more sincere and can impress the queen more. ”
Hearing his words, Su Moyu sneered in his heart and said secretly: "It's a good thing to say, pick yourself clean, what is more able to impress the queen, I obviously want to see the dowry gifts from the two families, which one can impress your great elder more." ”
After Hei Yeyuan's experience, the relationship between Su Moyu and Lou Lan has become a lot closer, and a faint affection has entangled the two of them.
It's just that a considerable part of Su Moyu's heart is occupied by Ya'er, so he didn't express it to Lou Lan.
But at this moment, the Great Elder released these few words, so that Su Moyu could no longer escape, because if he didn't accept this challenge, Lou Lan would marry the Qian Ji on the other side.
What kind of person is Qianji, Su Moyu has probably heard of it, how can he hand over Lou Lan to him?
"Okay, I agree!" Su Moyu replied loudly.
And Qian Ji on the other side was also stunned when he heard the words of the Great Elder.
Especially when he listened to the Great Elder and compare himself to Su Moyu, an unusually angry look appeared on his face.
Obviously, before this, he and the Great Elder had reached some kind of consensus.
The other party promised that he would marry Lou Lan to him, but at this moment, why did a Su Moyu suddenly appear?
But after listening to the Great Elder again, after talking about the second half of the dowry competition, a stone fell to the ground in Tianji's heart.
"It turns out that the Great Elder is secretly biased towards me. Qianji said secretly in his heart.
The reason why he thinks this way is simple.
Because in order to propose to Loulan this time, the dowry he brought was full of weight.
This dowry made his father, Qianwang Qianshan, very painful.
With him, the Royal Highness of the declining Black Feather Clan, how could he take it better than his own dowry.
"Very good, I agree!" Qian Ji said, glancing contemptuously at Su Mo Yu Fang Qiang.
The Great Elder nodded lightly and said, "Since both sides agree, then the matter is simple, and please ask the two of you to show your dowry gifts, and I will make a judgment for the two of you here." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qianji next to him shouted loudly: "Okay! Since it is a mutual comparison of bride price, then we will compare the same." I'll come first, in order to get Queen Lou Lan, my Zhengyu clan, I am willing to cede the 80,000 li territory from Xueyue Lake to Niuer Mountain, I don't know how much territory this Black Feather Clan can cut?"
As soon as he said this, Su Moyu frowned.
Although Su Moyu was praised as His Royal Highness by the Black Feather Clan, he didn't know much about the Black Feather Clan.
Especially the matter of ceding territory, he knew that it was definitely not a trivial matter, and it was not something that he could make the decision by talking about it alone.
"When it comes to territory, I can't call the shots alone. Su Moyu said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Qianji raised his head and let out a presumptuous laugh, and only after a long time did he stare at Su Moyu and said, "Oh, Your Highness, you are so stingy, and you dare to come to propose? ”
Su Moyu darkened his face, glared at him and said, "Although I didn't take the territory as a dowry, I have other things. ”
After hearing this, Qianji nodded again and again: "Okay, then you listen to my second share." My Zhengyu clan is willing to give 3,000 young girls and 10,000 strong young men to the white feather clan...... I don't know how many people your Black Feather Clan has brought out, Your Highness?"
As soon as he heard his words, Su Moyu's face sank again, whether it was territory or population, he couldn't take it out.
"I still can't make my decision. Su Moyu said in a low voice.
Qianji laughed wildly again, he stood up, pointed at Su Moyu and said: "This can't be the master, that can't be the master, what does it mean for your highness to deserve it? So you still have the cheekiness to come to propose? My previous two dowry gifts were just appetizers, and you have already lost like this, do we need to compete next?"
Su Moyu frowned tightly, stared at the invincible Qianji in front of him, and said in a cold voice: "Your Zhengyu clan is indeed vast and densely populated, but the White Feather clan may not be inferior to you with so much territory and population, the sea of trees is so big, if the White Feather Clan wants to expand its territory, why do you need your Zhengyu clan to cede it?"
His words can be regarded as talking about the hearts of the Great Elder and the other White Feather Clan elders in the Great Hall.
Indeed, there are many areas that Shuhai has not yet explored, and if the White Feather Clan really wants to expand its territory, it really does not need to be ceded from the Zhengyu Clan.
"As for the thirteen,000 people you sent, if it were me, I would rather not, who knows how many spies you have planted in it?" Su Moyu said, twisting his head to the side.
These words were agreed by most of the elders in the main hall.
That's right, the two clans of Bai Yu and Zhengyu have been friends on the surface over the years, but they have fought a lot of spy wars in secret, and it is too late to guard against each other, you sent 13,000 people so openly, what do you want to do?
Su Moyu's words made Qianji's first two dowry gifts, not only not get a positive effect, but aroused the vigilance of everyone in the Bai Yu clan.
"Yes, this territory and population, please take it back, Your Highness, my White Feather clan is not lacking in these. The Great Elder said lightly.
