Xie Yin wanted to laugh, today was the big day for the starling to get married, but he only felt that his nose was sour.

He never imagined that the brothers would end up separated like this.

There were a lot of dowries, and all kinds of gold and silver were finely and softly packed with a hundred large carriages, and they were mighty and mighty, heading towards Shenjing.

As the only king with a different surname in the Great Jin Dynasty, the town king Xie Jiafu is rival the country, which is a well-known fact.

Xie Anshi, the king of the town, is not a stingy person. What's more, this is about the face of the Xie family.

You must not let the old Confucians in Shenjing be underestimated, this is his original words. So he gave the order very happily and emptied an entire treasury.

When the convoy finally disappeared from sight, Xie Anshi breathed a heavy sigh of relief, as if he had unloaded a thousand catties of burden, and suddenly asked, "Yin'er, are you unhappy?" ”

"I didn't ...... No, the wind and sand are in the eyes. ”

Although the tears in his eyes were about to burst out of his eyes, Xie Yin still tried his best to hold back, he didn't want people to see his weak side.

Xie Anshi turned around and patted him on the shoulder vigorously: "In the future, I will have to pick up the burden of the Xie family." ”

"Father...... I...... May I? ”

Xie Yin was choked for a while, and he didn't know what to say.

"You can, Father knows that you are no worse than anyone else. Now that the world is peaceful, Wen Tian is martial arts, and he has no future. ”

Xie Anshi sighed, what he said was not only to encourage Xie Yin, but also to spit out the stuffiness in his chest.

Regarding the marriage of the eighth son Xie Yu, the entire Zhenzhou was in an uproar. They couldn't understand why Xie Anshi would let his most promising son get into the fold.

I'm afraid that even Xie Anshi himself couldn't have imagined that the Xie family would face today's situation.

When he was young, he was quite romantic, did some wild and uninhibited things, and set up three concubines at the same time, saying that he wanted to give the woman he loved true justice.

You must know that even the emperor of the Divine Court has only one emperor and queen.

Those concubines gave birth to eight sons one after another, according to the tradition of establishing the elder but not the young, and passing on the heirs but not the concubines, Xie Yu should have stayed by his side and inherited the family business in the future.

And the mother of the ninth son, Xie Yin, is just a singer of Qinglou with a low status, originally Xie Anshi wanted to make her the fourth concubine, but she was blessed and died of illness shortly after giving birth to Xie Yin.

Ten years ago, when Xie Yin was eight years old. The northern demons and barbarians raised troops to invade again, drank horses and Chijiang, and vowed to set foot on the Great Jin Dynasty and dominate the world.

Xie Anshi took eight older sons and led the army to the battle. After months of bloody battles, he finally broke the demon barbarians and saved half of the Great Jin Dynasty.

It can be said that it is a reinvention and has made immortal contributions.

Full of heroes, how magnificent; What a great honor.

Who knows how much blood and how many lives have been paid behind this glory?

In that battle, of the eight sons, only the eldest son Xie Zheng, and the eighth son Xie Yu had already retreated.

But after Xie Zheng came back, he saw through the red dust and went to the White Horse Temple in Ganzhou in the west to become a monk, leaving his childless wife alone in the empty house, and finally died of depression

Now, even Xie Yu has left. The nine sons of the Xie family, only Xie Yin is left.

Xie Anshi waved his hand and retreated. Unlike Xie Yin, he is a commander and a pillar of the Great Jin, he can only shed blood, not tears.

"You must blame your father, with our family background, why did my father let your starling go into trouble?"

Indeed, Xie Yu is dignified, civil and military, and I don't know how many princely families have stepped on the threshold and want to marry their daughter to him.

"That's because, it's a deal!" Xie Anshi's tone was full of pain.

In fact, Xie Yin knew in his heart that on the surface, the Xie family had a prominent reputation, but it was a high achievement, and the height was unbearable. Only those who are in it can experience it.

Marriage is a common means used by the princely family in order to ensure the interests of their family. Moreover, Xie Yu is a well-known family in Shenjing, the Cui family.

Xie Cui's two families are united, and even the emperor has to weigh this amount.

However, if you want Miss Cui to marry, you won't be wronged by her, so why bother......

Xie Anshi nodded.

"Father knows what is in your heart. But what I want to trade is not prosperity and riches. It's ......"

He gestured with his hand.

Xie Yin looked in the direction of his finger.

At this time, the father and son stood on the high place of the south building, and naturally they could overlook the whole city, and in the center of the huge palace, there was a natural lake, which was called Xiyuan.

There is a small island in the abyss, and there is nothing on the island except a strange tree.

Xie Anshi pointed to the tree.

It was indeed a very strange tree, with a trunk not thick, only the size of a bowl, and it was slippery, but it reached into the sky, higher than the watchtower on the city wall. Only at the top does a red leaf grow.

From a distance, it looks like a big gun erected in the palace.

Xie Yin looked at his father suspiciously, the marriage of the starling brother is related to this tree?

Xie Anshi's face was filled with mist sadness.

"It's been eighteen years, and it's going to eat people again!"

"Cannibalism?"

Xie Yin was even more shocked, in fact, that tree, he had also climbed, it was really a tree, how could it eat people?

Xie Anshi looked at him with complicated eyes, and said for a long time: "There are some things, you were young before, I haven't told you yet, now that I'm old, this Xie family will be yours in the future." It's time for you to know. ”

"This tree, called repentance, is the most ominous thing in the world, and it must be sacrificed with blood every eighteen years, otherwise, there will be a catastrophe in the world."

Xie Yin took a deep breath, this tree has become a refinement!

"So, I will use your starling brother to marry the Cui family and exchange one person to come back. ...... with her blood"

"Even if you want a blood sacrifice, there are countless death row prisoners in the yamen, why sacrifice the happiness of the starling?"

Xie Anshi sighed and said, "If that's the case, why should I bother? ”

"Who doesn't want their children and grandchildren to be happy on their knees, but if they want to get that person, they have to pay the price."

If these words hadn't come from Xie Anshi's mouth, Xie Yin would definitely have thought that the person who said this was a madman.

But he knew that his father had been on the throne for a long time, and although he was uninhibited when he was young, he was not a child's play. Now that I'm older, I won't talk nonsense.

"Who's that?"

Xie Anshi was silent for a moment before he said, "Of course it's your eighth sister-in-law." Today, there is only the Cui family, and there are ...... Only the descendants of the Cui family have the blood of God. ”
