Chapter 81: A Father Who Regretted Not Doing His Job
Is there a way to cultivate the relationship between Wang Jiu and Li Xinyu!?
This...... It's a magical brain circuit!
After listening to the city lord's question, it took Shen Jinghai a full two seconds before he felt that the time around him was flowing again, and his mind was running again.
And Shen Jinghai, whose mind was running normally, thought about the first question why the city lord made such a request.
As a qualified right-hand man, it is not enough to simply obey the boss's words, you must learn to put yourself in the boss's shoes to think about the problem, so that you can do it when you carry out the order.
However, after thinking along this line of thought for a long time, Shen Jinghai could only come to the conclusion helplessly: I can't figure it out at all! No matter how he thought about it, Shen Jinghai couldn't understand what it meant to let Wang Jiu and Li Xinyu cultivate a relationship.
If he can't figure out the question, Shen Jinghai will never force himself, but ask it directly.
"Lord of the City, why do you make such an arrangement?"
Shen Ruoshi glanced at his adjutant and said, "You haven't been in love for a long time, and you haven't had time to have your own heirs, no wonder you ask such a question." ”
Shen Jinghai arched his hand: "The subordinates are incompetent, and it took many years of blind dates to finally meet a suitable partner, but soon after the operation, the inner man still needs to be conditioned for several months before he can have fertility." ”
"Well, give her this." Shen Ruoshi said, poking out a porcelain bottle from the armrest of the dark throne, "How much can you make your body recover faster, you are not small, it's time to continue your bloodline." ”
After Shen Jinghai gratefully accepted the elixir, Shen Ruoshi continued: "If you have a child, it is not difficult to understand that parents are willing to do anything for the sake of their children. And the older you get, the more so. When I was young, I was energetic, my curiosity was endless, I walked the world, explored the fairy road, and I felt that the world was endless, where I was willing to tie my hands and feet for a few crying dolls. However, when I reach the age of 100, no matter how much I prolong my life, I can clearly feel the loss of vitality and the decline of energy. And at this time, I am doubly concerned about my children. ”
Shen Jinghai was silent, the city lord's emotion, he couldn't empathize. Back then, he was promoted from the outer city by Shen Ruoshi to the powerful deputy city lord, and when he ascended to the sky, he made a vow that he would do his best in this position for the rest of his life and die. As I grew older, this determination became more and more unwavering. Even if it is a blind date for more than ten years, it is not for his own selfish desires, but he hopes to give birth to excellent heirs, and after careful training, he will continue to serve the lord of the city. If the lord of the city goes, he will serve his descendants.
Therefore, this kind of concern for his children, Shen Jinghai can't fully understand. I can only try my best to listen and feel the little things that the lord of the city rarely reveals.
"The matter of Yue'e, outsiders only say that I am haunted, and the remaining anger has not subsided so far. But in fact, when I think of Yue'e, I only have heartache, that maverick daughter, although she has not wanted to be close to me since she was a child, but she is my daughter after all. She left her hometown when she was in her prime, and died alone in the remote and backward Qingyun City...... Even after all these years, I can still feel the throbbing pain in my heart. ”
"In the past, I have always thought that I will never forgive the Li family in this life, no matter what reason they have, they will kill Yue'e after all. And killing my daughter, even if the Li family exterminates the ten clans, it is not a pity. However, perhaps it is really as we get older, and people's thinking has gradually changed. In recent years, what I think is that the tragedy of that year was not Li Fengyun's responsibility alone, and I, as Yue'e's father, could not escape the blame for her affairs. ”
Hearing this, Shen Jinghai couldn't help but interrupt: "The city lord doesn't have to blame himself, he ...... back then."
Shen Ruoshi waved his hand: "Don't comfort me, in the past few years, I have long made the Taoist ideal clear." Back then, if I hadn't paid too much attention to my spiritual practice and family affairs, and neglected to care for my children, Yue'e's intelligence and temperament should not have died young. If I had ......"
Speaking of this, the silver-haired centenarian let out a painful sigh that made the listener Shen Jinghai feel his heart twitch.
"If I had betrothed her to someone else earlier."
“…… Well? ”
Shen Ruoshi sighed again: "When Yue'e was 16 years old, someone from Jinyucheng came to say goodbye, and the other party was the little uncle of the current city lord Zhao Shenlu, Zhao Hongshuang, who was also a young talent back then, but unfortunately ......"
Hearing the name Zhao Hongshuang, Shen Jinghai frowned slightly, and he already had an impression. That was the deputy head of the Golden Jade City Golden Armor Battle Regiment, and at the age of 40, he had the cultivation of the mountain realm, and he was also the leading figure in the entire Xiangzhou Continent. Moreover, he has a very good relationship with Zhao Shenlu, the city lord who is now in full swing, and he is a hot big man in Jinyu City, and when it comes to power and status, he is almost inferior to the Li family master in Qingyun City...... He actually proposed marriage to Shen Yue'e back then? But why didn't it work out in the end?
Thinking of this, Shen Jinghai pinched his fingers again, Zhao Hongshuang, born in 1960, Yue'e was 16 years old...... He should be around 28 years old. Although it is true that he can be called a young talent, maybe the age difference is a little bigger? Although ordinary monks don't pay much attention to age equality, after all, it is not uncommon for hundred-year-old men to get angry on thin horses, but perhaps in the eyes of the city lord, the age difference is nearly doubled, or does it seem a little reluctant?
Shen Ruoshi said: "When I arranged for them to meet, Yue'e took ten questions from the other party, and Zhao Hongshuang only answered one, and was directly classified by Yue'e into the ranks of mild intellectual retardation and was not considered. ”
“……”
"Yue'e, that girl, when I was a teenager, I was the most stubborn age, that kind of hellish question, even I can only answer three or four questions, am I also mentally retarded!?"
Of course, Shen Jinghai didn't dare to say anything, after all, he was not mentally retarded.
Shen Ruoshi said again: "Back then, I didn't take the affairs of my children too seriously, Yue'e said that I didn't agree, so I didn't bother to care, and entertained the Zhao family to play in Shencheng for a few days and then sent them back...... Now that I think about it, it would have been nice if I had put more thought into matching the two of them. As a result, he let go for a while, and kept putting that girl at the age of twenty-seven or eighteen, and encountered Li Fengyun's magic barrier...... Alas, Yue's girl, saying that she wants to be her husband, she will get at least 6 out of 10 exam questions, and if she can get all 10 questions, she will be willing to marry someone and be a concubine. But just at Li Fengyun's pointy face and stupid appearance, why do you hit all 10 ways?! It's not that the girl is confused, and she leaked the exam questions in advance! ”
Shen Jinghai, an expert on leakage, nodded with deep feelings.
It can be seen that there is no hard standard for men and women, and if you look at it, it is a perfect score for failing. If you can't look at it, a full score is also a failure. If I had thought of more ways to let Yue'e marry into Jinyucheng...... Now, she should be very happy, Jin Yucheng is a woman's family, the status of a female monk is much higher than other places, Yue'e is so smart and outstanding, she will definitely be appreciated by Zhao Shenlu, Zhao Shenlu is eclectic in employing people, especially likes to use women, with Yue'e's ability, will it be weaker than Zhao Hongshuang? ”
Listening to Shen Ruoshi's analysis, Shen Jinghai couldn't help but nod his head, thinking deeply.
Compared to dying in Qingyun City, if Shen Yue'e can marry Jinyu City, it is indeed much better...... But then again, what does Shen Yue, who has been talking about for so long, have to do with the original question?
Shen Ruoshi said: "That Wang Jiu and Qingming are in a teacher-student relationship. ”
“…… What? ”
Shen Ruoshi glanced at Shen Jinghai again, and then said, "Is the teacher-student relationship difficult to understand?" ”
"The subordinates are just curious, how can the city lord see that they are in teacher-student love?"
Shen Ruoshi snorted coldly: "I wrote it...... I've given birth to so many children, can't I see the girls' eyes in love? Qingming, that kid is clearly deep in mud! ”
Shen Jinghai lowered his head and remained silent on this issue, although from his point of view, there should be no romantic relationship between Wang Jiu and Shen Qingming in the general sense, but he himself really had no say in the issue of love, at least compared to the city lord......
However, what about the teacher-student relationship? Could it be that the city lord is not satisfied with Wang Jiu?
"That kind of vulgar-looking person is not a good thing at first glance! How can you let Qingming fall in love with this kind of goods!? The tragic thing that happened to Yue'e must not be allowed to happen again! ”
Shen Jinghai nodded hurriedly: "What the city lord said is extremely true. ”
Shen Ruoshi said: "If there is a suitable candidate for a grandson-in-law now, I really want to directly find a marriage for Qingming and marry her, but I don't have to worry about it." But how can a man who can be worthy of light tea be so easy to find...... Therefore, I had to find a way to make that Wang Jiu empathize and say goodbye. ”
Shen Jinghai asked: "However, isn't it a bit ...... to choose Li Xinyu as the object of empathy?"
Shen Ruoshi asked, "What's wrong with Li Xinyu?" What's wrong with a white chubby big round face? On the contrary, although Wang Jiu's cultivation is amazing, he has such a vulgar appearance, what qualifications does he have to find fault with Li Xinyu? ”
“…… Li Xinyu: He is a man after all. ”
"What's wrong with the man?" Shen Ruoshi was a little inexplicable, "What does relationship between feelings and gender?" ”
When Shen Jinghai heard this, he suddenly remembered his beloved wife Cai'er, and his heart was like rolling waves......
"So, now that you understand, let's go down and make arrangements, and try to make those two get along happily."
"Subordinate...... Wine and food will be prepared in the private room, incense will be lit, and a war elephant propaganda video will be played in the water screen projection. ”
"Well, yes, it's very thoughtful, these specific things are up to you, you don't need to ask me."
Shen Jinghai nodded hurriedly, and then said: "City Lord, there is one more thing, the envoy group of the Zhao family also arrived in Shen City recently, this is their member information, and the congratulatory letter written by the City Lord Zhao himself. ”
"Okay, put it here, I'll see it later."
"Yes."
After Shen Jinghai retreated, Shen Ruoshi's mind surged with previous memories, and there was a sigh again.
casually opened the information left by Shen Jinghai, Shen Ruoshi only read the first page, and his eyes lit up.
A standard face of the Sifang country is printed on the portrait bar of the data sheet.
This trip came on behalf of Jin Yucheng to celebrate Shen Ruoshi's birthday...... Zhao Jincheng.
