Chapter 989: Agreed
"It's actually quite simple. King Ming said: "General Lin, Mingyu said, you once said in front of the emperor that the entire Eighteen Sha Cities would be pacified within ten years, so Mingyu asked for this, and she wanted you to make this promise as a dowry for her." Of course, it's not that you have to marry Mingyu after ten years, but Mingyu wants two sand cities as a dowry, and when will you win two more sand cities, when you will report the victory, it will be the day when Mingyu will marry you, how about it?"
Hearing this unexpected dowry request, the people around were a little dumbfounded, they really couldn't imagine that Princess Mingyu would have such a problem, and the emperor seemed to agree with it, otherwise, King Ming would not say it in front of everyone.
"Could it be that the emperor wants to warn Lin Lixuan. "A lot of people are starting to think that in their hearts.
The assassination a few days ago, these people all knew, and at the same time, they also knew the powerful power hidden in Lin Ze's hands.
Lin Ze before was only training, and his ability to command the army was very strong, and other aspects were still unknown, but after the assassination a few days ago, these people knew that Lin Ze still had a strong hidden strength in his hands.
It was a collective assassination of six congenital masters, in the face of such a strong assassin, if it was themselves, they would have died a long time ago, but Lin Ze not only did not suffer a little damage, but also left the lives of the six congenital assassins, which shows the strength hidden behind Lin Ze.
This time, the number of people in the Hou Mansion to welcome the holy decree of marriage will be so large, even if it is a few eldest young masters, second young masters, third young masters or something of the third generation of the Hou Mansion who had a lot of opinions about Lin Ze in their hearts before, they are also obediently kneeling at the door of the palace holy decree.
Why? The reason is not because of Lin Ze's strong strength.
Lin Ze's continuous display of strong strength made everyone in the Hou Mansion fully understand the strong gap between themselves and Lin Ze, and now when they go out to socialize, those who didn't take them seriously, or said that they couldn't stammer, also treated them with a pleasant face, and there were many people who were stronger than them before, and they actually turned to slap them, which made them have to curry favor with Lin Ze.
These people are dumbfounded, but they are not stupid, and they know very well that they will have such a change in treatment, all because of Lin Ze.
"It seems that it was Lin Lixuan's previous conflict with the Seventh Prince that made the emperor dissatisfied!"
However, even so, they still have to tie up with Lin Ze well, because the emperor still gave him a marriage, so Lin Ze is still deeply loved by the emperor, otherwise, where would he give his favorite daughter to Lin Ze.
Moreover, there are still some smart people who are still muttering in their hearts, Lin Ze and the Seventh Prince Yan Yucheng are fighting so badly, the emperor not only doesn't ask, but also marries Princess Mingyu, does this mean that the emperor is already very dissatisfied with the Seventh Prince Yan Yucheng, and he wants to make a move.........
Lin Ze didn't care about the breathing of the people around him, after hearing Princess Mingyu's request, his heart was relaxed, and he could even be said to have a hint of happiness.
Because, since Princess Mingyu asked for the dowry of two other sand cities, then to speak, at least within a year or two, he will not have to marry this Princess Mingyu, which makes him relax in his heart, and really wants him to marry such an unknown woman immediately, or a naked ///naked / political // marriage woman, his heart is also very awkward.
At the same time, in this way, he also has a better account for Shaman.
"Hehe, this is the best, after I go back, I will directly prepare for the wedding with Shaman, when the time comes, although Shaman does not have the name of a wife, but she is more advanced than Mingyu, in this way, Shaman can be regarded as a confession in the past, hehe, it's really good!" Lin Ze's heart smiled.
Therefore, Lin Ze directly hugged his fists and said with a smile: "King Ming, please also tell Princess Mingyu that you will definitely take two sand cities for her within two or three years, and I will take the people of these two sand cities and the geographical map to marry her." ”
(Now Princess Mingyu is only sixteen years old, so even if she waits for two or three years to get married, it is not too late, not to mention, the holy decree of marriage is equivalent to announcing to the world that Lin Ze and Princess Mingyu are engaged.) According to modern parlance, that is, two people have received a marriage certificate, and they are just a wedding celebration away. )
"Good, good, good!" King Ming laughed and said three good words in a row.
"General Lin is really courageous, this king is ashamed of himself, if it is this king, don't say three years, even if it is ten years, it may not be necessary to make Shacheng, General Lin, what courage!" King Ming praised, then turned to Lin Renquan and said: "Zhenbei Hou, you have a good grandson, this king is really envious, haha......."
Lin Renquan said a few words modestly, and at the same time, secretly glanced at Lin Ze with dissatisfaction: "This kid really doesn't know how thick the sky is, how can he agree to such conditions." ”
For Lin Renquan, such a condition is absolutely unacceptable, not that Lin Renquan has no confidence in Lin Ze to build two sand cities within three years.
Lin Ze was able to wipe out more than 500,000 sand thieves from scratch in more than half a year, and occupied the relatively powerful Black Sand City and Blastwind City in the Eighteen Sand Cities, so it was not impossible to give him another three years to lay down two more Sand Cities.
What Lin Renquan was really angry about was that Lin Ze should have married Princess Mingyu first.
Things are changing, maybe just said things well, the next moment, things have changed, correspondingly, the previous ones are not counted, not to mention, this time is still three years.
Three years is enough time for a lot of changes.
"This kid is actually still looking for Shaman in his heart!" As soon as he saw the heartfelt smile on Lin Ze's face, Lin Renquan immediately understood everything.
"But it's okay, Xuan'er can treat a woman like this, then in the future, what will happen to the Hou Mansion, then there is no need to say, this time, I can really rest assured, hehe........" Lin Renquan laughed in his heart.
Since Lin Ze can be so affectionate and righteous to Shaman, then in the future, he will inevitably treat the Hou Mansion in the same way.
Thinking of this, the anger in Lin Renquan's heart completely dissipated.
"Lord Wang, a banquet has been prepared in the mansion, we must not get drunk today!" Lin Renquan, who had figured it out, smiled and let King Ming into the hall of the banquet.
"Okay, good, on a big day like today, this king naturally wants to disturb a few cups. But you can't drink too much today, at least you can't get drunk, this king will have to go back to the palace to regain his sight later, another day, I'll come to the Hou Mansion another day, and then we must have a few drinks, and if we don't get drunk, we won't return, okay?"
"Okay, okay, just follow the prince, when the time comes, we won't get drunk and don't return, prince, please!"
..................................
Time flew by, very quickly, and it was past nine o'clock in the evening.
Even at nine o'clock in the evening, the town was still boiling in the north of the town, and it was very lively, and everyone was still celebrating the happy event of Lin Ze's marriage.
Lin Ze, the protagonist, is no longer at the banquet now, he pretended to be drunk and went straight back to his room.
However, just after the person who sent him back left, Lin Ze, who was still drunk before, immediately opened his eyes, and there was still any drunkenness in the whole person, even if it was the drunken red on his face, it disappeared immediately.
"Alas, what a headache, so many people poured me wine, if I hadn't pretended to be drunk, I would have to face countless wine glasses now!" Lin Ze recalled the picture of being directly drunk by everyone before.
Maybe they realized that they are too different from Lin Ze, as long as Lin Ze is there, the future title of the Hou Mansion will definitely not fall into their hands, and at the same time, with Lin Ze here, their status in the Kyoto Gentleman Circle will be higher and higher, thinking about this, many people in the Hou Mansion have no sense of competition in their hearts.
However, although I no longer demand to inherit the title in my heart, there is always some unwillingness.
There was no opportunity to vent before, but now it's okay, today is the day of Lin Ze and Princess Mingyu's marriage, so the young masters in the third generation of the Hou Mansion have come to Lin Ze with a pot of wine, wanting to get drunk to vent the grievances in their hearts.
Lin Ze understands the psychology of these people, and they are indeed here to congratulate him, so he does not refuse the wine of several brothers and younger brothers.
It's just that in the end, other people also joined in, so Lin Ze couldn't stand it a little, and in the end, seeing that it couldn't go on like this, Lin Ze hurriedly pretended to be drunk and got out.
"Ping'er, I'm going to take a shower, and I smell of alcohol everywhere. Lin Ze shouted loudly.
"Got it, young master, the bath water has already been prepared!" Ping'er's voice sounded quickly.
"Young master, do you want to take it?" asked Ping'er in the bathroom while rubbing Lin Ze's back.
"Well, it's very comfortable, Ping'er's craftsmanship is the best, young master I like it!" Lin Ze said with his eyes closed and an expression of enjoyment.
"Ping'er, the young master and Princess Mingyu get married, will you feel uncomfortable in your heart?" After enjoying Ping'er's back rubbing for a while, Lin Ze still asked.
"Hehe, young master, Ping'er doesn't care, grandpa and daddy are around them, there are also a lot of aunts!" Ping'er said with a natural face, not angry at all.
Seeing this, Lin Ze was directly depressed in his heart, because, before coming back, he had been thinking about how to explain this matter to Ping'er in his heart.
However, unexpectedly, Ping'er didn't care at all.
"I like this era, hehe........" Lin Ze was secretly refreshed in his heart.
The tradition of three wives and four concubines in the feudal era made Ping'er not jealous at all.
