Chapter 138: Fate, Face the Reality

If it is used as a turning point, the latter words are the focus of the sentence, Long Xiang saw Zhang Zhao's words turn around, and hurriedly asked, "What if?"

Zhang Zhao stroked his long beard and said meaningfully: "The lord has already informed the generals of the happy events, if Long Sima deliberately obstructs it, I'm afraid Jiangdong Jian'er will not agree..."

"Can I see it as a threat? The last one to threaten me was Zheng Bao..."Long Xiang did not show weakness in the face of the threat.

Zhang Zhao was not angry, put up two fingers, and replied confidently, "Zheng Bao? He is indeed a character to Long Sima, but in the eyes of my lord, he is like a mustard, Lujiang Taishou Liu Xun knows, right? There are more than 10,000 defenders in his Anhui County, but unfortunately it only lasted for two days, and Long Sima had better think twice."

After listening to this, Long Xiang asked with humble eyes: "Marriage is a big event, the matchmaker's words, if the Qiao family does not agree, General Sun plans to marry by force?" Is he so short of women?"

"I have just said, it doesn't matter if the Qiao family agrees or not, the key is what Long Sima's attitude is, I heard that it is not easy to rebuild Hefei, don't let the people suffer again, Long Sima is young and promising, Lu is the master of Jianghuai Gaoshi, you will make a wise choice, you can discuss it well."

Zhang Zhao said that he got up and said goodbye, Lu Su also stood up awkwardly, and Long Xiang muttered when he saw this, "I have to ask Mrs. Qiao for this matter..."

"Before the lord arrives in Hefei, you still have a lot of time, and I hope you two can make a wise decision."

Zhang Zhao bowed his hand and resigned: "Whether it's for instructions or discussion, the words have been brought, so I will leave."

"Mr. Zibu, wait a minute." Long Xiang shouted to stop.

Zhang Zhao turned around and turned around: "Is there anything else wrong with Long Sima?"

Long Xiang said with a bitter face: "The Qiao family has a deep relationship with me, if Mrs. Qiao insists on not complying, if I force it to be immoral, can this matter be dealt with in a compromise?"

"Compromise?"

Zhang Zhao looked at Long Xiang with empty eyes, and said in his heart, what tricks do you kid want to play?

"As Mr. said, some of Yuan Shu's family orphans are also in Hefei, and he also has a few daughters of appropriate age..."

Zhang Zhao was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but secretly praise Long Xiang's quick wisdom, and he was embarrassed: "The lord and Gongjin want the second bridge by name, and Long Sima replaces it like this..."

"I will try my best to persuade the Qiao family, but I am not afraid of 10,000, I am afraid of what happens, it is always right to be prepared with both hands..." Long Xiang finished prevaricating Zhang Zhao, and then motioned to Lu Su and said, "Mr. Zibu has worked his mission, Zijing will take some gifts and bring them, and then send Mr. out of the city."

"Yui."

"Long Sima, this... It's not appropriate..."

"Mr. is running for the peace of Hefei, how can Long not know the number of etiquette? I still have to go and ask Mrs. Shiqiao, I can't send him out of the city in person, I hope he will understand."

"Long Sima is polite..."

Long Xiang was a project manager in his previous life, and he had the ability to see people and talk nonsense, the reason why he was so polite to Zhang Zhao was not only to befriend this "French strategist", but also to make Sun Ce take it lightly.

In history, Sun Ce Na Bridge, Zhou Yuna Xiao Bridge, Long Xiang first excluded his favorite small bridge, and did not want Daqiao to marry the short-lived Sun Ce, but specifically asked Chen's opinion, if the other party took a fancy to Sun Ce's family background and was willing to let his daughter be a concubine, Long Xiang, an outsider, could not stop it.

Let Yuan Shu's daughter be a stand-in for Xiaoqiao, it was a ploy that Long Xiang came up with temporarily, and he was worried that the Yuan family was eating rice in Hefei, and now he sent one away.

Long Xiang sent Zhang Zhao to the gate of the mansion, called Lu Su aside and whispered: "I'll go to the back house first to ask for instructions, Zijing will return quickly after sending Zibu, and everyone will discuss countermeasures together."

"Do you want to call Ziyang?"

"Yes."

"I can save it."

Liu Ye and others just came to Hefei, Long Xiang took into account that the Han family relatives and had sufficient property, food and clothing, so they did not arrange jobs for them, only Hao Meng had a strong sense of staying.

Hao Meng was a strong general under Lu Bu, and he was the captain of the city defense in Xiapi, so Long Xiang arranged for him to go to the left camp of the city defense and gave Xu Ding the deputy general.

Long Xiang sent Lu Su and Zhang Zhao away, and walked straight to the back house.

The bridge family at this time

The mother and daughter also fell into contemplation because of the news brought by Qiao Ling.

It is disgraceful to be a concubine, the Chen family has never thought about it, but now that the Qiao family has fallen down, the objects of concubines are not bad, one is Sun Ce, who she has long taken a fancy to, and the other is Zhou Yu, who has a better background, so hesitation and entanglement are all in my heart.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Qiao Wan took the lead in asking Qiao Ling, "What is Long Yunqi's opinion, did he agree?"

"Nope." Qiao Ling shook his head and added: "Long Yunqi seems to have the intention of shirking, but Zhang Zhao's attitude is very tough, I'm afraid that this matter will not end well, and Sun Ce may want to annex Hefei..."

"Mother wants to give the eldest sister to Long Yunqi, but it seems to be quite difficult now, Long Yunqi refuses to fight Sun Ce, otherwise Hefei City is still the same, alas..." Qiao Wan sighed deeply.

Qiao Ling nodded and agreed: "Sun Ce has swept Jiangdong, Long Yunqi is probably not an opponent, I heard that he has been fighting Lujiang recently..."

"Sun Ce is fighting Lujiang? Why did you go to Hefei?" Chen wondered.

Qiao Wan interjected: "I heard that many homeless people have fled to Hefei recently, maybe Sun Ce has conquered the Lujiang River, and I am also worried that Long Yunqi will not be able to hold it..."

"If we hadn't come to Hefei, would we not be where we are today? Long Yunqi doesn't have this trouble? Maybe this is the fate of our sisters, is there really such a thing as a curse?"

Qiao Wei, who had been silent, suddenly sighed, and the other three were stunned when they heard it, and Chen preemptively refuted: "What's the trouble? It's all an excuse for men to fight for power and profit, Xiaowei, don't be pessimistic first, if you don't want to marry someone as a concubine, I will discuss with Long Xiang later, so that you can get married tonight."

"Huh? Thisโ€”" Qiao Wei blushed suddenly.

Qiao Wan immediately reminded: "Mother, this matter is not appropriate, if Sun Ce really covets the color of the eldest sister, he is afraid that he will not be able to get married in advance, which will not only harm Long Yunqi, but the eldest sister will also be easily humiliated..."

Qiao Wan's words rang like a class bell, making Chen's room quiet again.

After a while, Qiao Ling suddenly stood up in shock, swallowed her saliva and said, "Mother, eldest sister, second sister is right."

"Huh?"

Seeing that Chen and Qiao Wei were attracted to the past, Qiao Ling danced and analyzed: "Sister Shicai said about fate, if we went to Lujiang at the beginning, the two sisters fell into the hands of Cai Ji, and now Anhui County has been attacked by Sun Ce, if he and Zhou Yu are both anxious people, how can they let you go? Now that I think about it, it's really fate..."

Chen shook his head bitterly: "I thought you had any high opinions..."

Qiao Wei said gloomily: "Since it is fate, it is better to face the reality, Long Yunqi treats the Qiao family well, his daughter doesn't want to involve him, mother, you will wait..."

"Eldest sister, although Sun Ce is famous, Long Yunqi is also very human, so he still has some confidence..." Qiao Wan whispered to reassure.

Qiao Wei shook her head and said: "Second sister, you also face the reality, if you are a concubine with someone, you will be a concubine, Zhou Yu is Sun Ce's general, he should be your destination, I heard that this person is both talented and beautiful, and he may be able to achieve a good story with you..."
