"Wouldn't it, although this waiter is a big official, he can represent the imperial court?" Gu Xinglong frowned. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Hou Shilang can't represent it, but behind him stands Zhongshu Ling, which is enough to represent, and even control...... Therefore, the whole body is moved. Jiang You shook his head, "If Zhou Caichen deliberately smeared after returning to Beijing, accusing Su Shichou of embarrassing the waiter at the gentlemen's meeting because he was dissatisfied with the imperial court, and it is a fact that the latter was humiliated, at this time, how can we justify it? ”

"Damn, the waiter is really conscientious, and even at the cost of his reputation and relatives, I admire him a little. Duanmu Zhong sneered.

"How much is his face worth? If he uses his worthless face in exchange for Su Shi's face, won't he make a lot of money? If he is appreciated by the Zhongshu Order, he will be able to soar to the top, what is this face? Jiang You shook his head.

Everyone looked at Su Yi with a worried face.

Jiang You and Duanmu Zhong secretly regretted it, after all, it was the two of them who invited Su Yi to participate in the gentlemen's meeting, but they didn't expect to encounter such a thing, but they couldn't help at all.

At this moment, the two of them could only pray in their hearts that Su Yi could get through the difficulty.

On the second floor, Hou Qiuyan looked nervous, waiting for Su Yi's answer, while Xin Lao was full of sorrow and faintly guessed some clues.

Except for Zhou Caichen and Hou Shilang, the two masterminds who remained calm, the entourage behind the two saw Su Yi's tightly knit brows, and their faces flashed with joy more or less.

Ding Ren was even more happy in his heart.

"Hehe, these nobles from the capital really have the means, I want to see how your so-called eternal ten chips will deal with the current situation, if you don't want to die, you'd better participate in the competition, but once you participate in the competition, you won't end well, hahahaha......" Ding Ren snickered secretly.

As a party, Su Yi was thinking about something else.

"There are too many things involved in proposing marriage in public, and I can't refuse this waiter, otherwise the Lord and the faction will definitely grab more of my handles, and I don't know what other tricks are waiting for me later, so I can only push the boat down the river and participate in the competition...... However, even if I lose the game, I will only lose some face, and the purpose of Zhongshuling is just to make me lose face?"

"If it is really as Ji County Ling said, Zhongshu Ling really has a long-term vision, then he plans this month, this gentleman's meeting will not be able to end so simply, I have to think about what Zhou Caichen will do...... But for now, if you Zhou Caichen want me to lose face in front of everyone, how can I, Su Yi, obediently throw my face at your feet? If you want to use the color head to catch me, then I will let you lose your wife and lose your soldiers! The question is, how to deal with the matter of proposing marriage......

Su Yi thought about it, and subconsciously thought of Liu Xinzhao at the first banquet that day, so she looked at her.

Liu Xinzhao was clear in her heart, and immediately said, "Su Lang, do you want the little girl to round the field for you?"

"Oh, you know what I'm thinking?"

Liu Xinzhao smiled lightly, and in everyone's attention, she slowly stood up and looked at the second floor.

Because Liu Xinzhao was blocked by Su Yi before, everyone on the second floor couldn't see her appearance, and as soon as she stood up at this moment, many people on the second floor immediately looked shocked, and even the faces of Zhou Caichen and Hou Shilang changed.

Zhou Caichen Ai Ai said: "Lan, Lanling, ......"

Liu Xinzhao glared, and Zhou Caichen immediately swallowed back what he wanted to say next.

"You dog minions, why didn't you tell me Lan ...... Miss Liu is also here?!" Zhou Caichen scolded in a low voice.

"Childe, we don't know. An attendant behind him was crying.

"Bastard!" Zhou Caichen exploded in anger.

Su Yi saw the reaction of everyone on the second floor, and became even more curious about Liu Xinzhao's identity.

"That, Miss Liu, I don't know if you have any advice?" Zhou Caichen said with a dry smile.

"I can't talk about advice, I just want to remind Lord Hou: Mr. Su has a good match, and he has already set a marriage date, so I am afraid that Mr. Hou will disappoint Mr. Hou by marrying him first, but if Lord Hou is willing to give his daughter to Mr. Su as a concubine, it will be a good thing. Liu Xinzhao smiled lightly.

Everyone was in an uproar, looking at Su Yi with curiosity, all speculating about Su Yi's identity as a "good match".

Su Yi smiled but said nothing.

"If I say this marriage by myself, it will be suspicious of prevarication, but when I say it through the mouth of others, it seems to be above board. In addition, although I have made a covenant with Sister Shi'er, I have not yet made it public, so in order to prevent the Lord and the faction from taking the opportunity to make trouble in the future, I should find a way to announce this matter. Su Yi thought in her heart.

Listening to Liu Xinzhao's words, the expression of the waiter changed.

Although he was indeed ordered to stimulate Su Yi to participate in the competition, as a father, it was impossible for him to really ignore his daughter's future.

Su Yi has a bright future, and his daughter likes him, so it is naturally okay to marry Su Yi as his wife, but when he is a concubine, don't be kidding, what status can a concubine have?

A flash of disappointment flashed in Hou Qiuyan's eyes, but he quickly recovered as before.

But Zhou Caichen's face flashed with embarrassment.

To be honest, he really wanted to continue to put pressure on Su Yi, but as soon as Liu Xinzhao came forward at this moment, all the bad ideas he had brewed had to rot in his stomach.

This Miss Liu never weighed the weight, Zhou Caichen didn't want to offend her easily, so he had to give the waiter a look.

Hou Lang had to sigh and lead Hou Qiuyan back to the box.

"Dad, even if I only be a concubine...... Hou Qiuyan said anxiously.

"What nonsense are you talking about, girl!" scolded the waiter in a low voice.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Zhou Caichen coughed dryly twice, and his face was embarrassed.

"Su Shichou, I didn't know that you had a marriage match, so I made this kind of ugly drama, I hope I ask for forgiveness! Don't mention this marriage again, and make another brilliant appearance in Xia, it will definitely satisfy you......" Zhou Caichen said.

"Then it's good to use your Zhou family's Zhujun Garden as a colorful head?" Liu Xinzhao said.

Zhou Caichen was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his entourage twitched, he didn't expect Liu Xinzhao to have such a big appetite.

"Miss Liu, what is Zhujun Garden?" asked Su Yi in a low voice.

"Zhujun Garden is located in the royal garden 'Shangzhuang Garden', which is an annex that was given to Zhongshuling by the current saint more than ten years ago, which is of great significance. Liu Xinzhao said.

"Shangzhuang Yuan, Zhongnanhai?" Su Yi muttered in her heart.

When Zhou Caichen was in trouble, all the guests present were also discussing.

"What is this Bamboo Monarch Garden? Use it as a lottery head, this Zhou Gongzi seems to be reluctant. ”

"Of course I am reluctant, the mansions in the capital that can be called 'gardens' are all owned by the royal family, and they have always been used to reward princes and ministers, do you need me to say more about the value?"

"Gongzi Zhou has a garden in the capital, and he can also mobilize six servants, oh my God, how big is his official?"

"He doesn't look like he has the prestige of a big official, he should just be the heir of a certain minister. ”

"So he can't be the master of the garden when he uses the garden as a lottery?"

"It should be, it would be nice if he could call the shots, this is a royal garden, if Su Shiqiao can get it, wouldn't it be developed?"

"Stupid, with Su Shi's talent, he must be able to rank in the temple, what is a mere set of gardens?"

The crowd even claimed that it was.

Zhou Caichen's face was cloudy, and in just a few breaths, there were hundreds of battles between heaven and man in his heart.

No matter what color Su Yi asks, he can handle it calmly, but Zhujunyuan is really ......

"Miss Liu, you love to joke too much, and Zhu Junyuan is not the next person to have the final say. Zhou Caichen smiled bitterly.

"What about your previous sincerity?" Liu Xinzhao said expressionlessly.

Zhou Caichen gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! In the next place, I will bet on the Zhujun Garden as the lottery head! As long as Su Shichou can win the first prize in the next two games, he will give the Zhujun Garden away in the next two games to show his admiration!"

While speaking, Zhou Caichen was muttering in his heart: "What if I bet on Zhujunyuan, anyway, you Su Yi can't get the first place, and this is just a verbal agreement, as long as I rely on it afterwards ......"

"Then swear by blood. Liu Xinzhao smiled.

The corners of Zhou Caichen's mouth twitched.

The blood oath is an extremely ancient contracting ritual.

When making an oath, both sides will drink the blood of the animal or apply it to the side of the mouth, in order to show the determination to keep the covenant in good faith; this ritual has been popular in the world since ancient times, and after Sun Sheng created the era of the art of war, the blood can attract the witness of the martial temple, if the person who breaks the law has broken the law, he will be severely punished!

The most famous example is the story of the Zongheng family.

"Historical Records: The Biography of Pingyuan Jun" records: During the Warring States Period, King Qin Zhao sent heavy troops to besiege Handan, the capital of Zhao State, and King Zhao was anxious and sent Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng to Chu for help;

Pingyuan Jun and the king of Chu talked from sunrise to noon, and they had not yet decided on the matter of the alliance, so Mao Sui stepped forward and explained the benefits of the alliance with a three-inch tongue.

The higher the rank, the heavier the agreement at the time of bloodshed, and almost no one can break it.

Everyone in the audience stared at Zhou Caichen, speculating whether he could keep his promise.

Zhou Caichen gritted his teeth and said to the left and right: "Take the blood of the animal!"

The two subordinates hurriedly went to prepare, and a moment later, a bowl of chicken blood was presented.

Zhou Caichen dipped his fingers in it, smeared the blood on his lips, and then pointed to the sky with two fingers, and said in a sonorous voice: "The sky has eyes, and the saints are for example, Zhou Caichen of the Zhou family made an oath here: If Su Yi can win the first place in today's gentlemen's meeting, Zhou Caichen will give away the Zhou family's bamboo monarch garden, there is no lie, if there is a violator, the earth will be destroyed on the same day!"
