Chapter 15: Engagement

Sunset, suburbs.

Lu Ziyi and Wei Yun had finished hunting, and the two had a barbecue and were taking a nap.

Lu Ziyi sat on the grass, Wei Yun pillowed his head on his knees, looking at Lu Ziyi's face, his pretty face was slightly red.

It suddenly occurred to her that not long ago, her mother asked her how she felt about Lu Ziyi. The girls are precocious in mind, and she naturally knows what her mother means.

Speaking of which, Lu Ziyi is burly, handsome, and has both literary talent and martial arts! And it's very good for her!

"If Brother Yi is my husband, it doesn't seem bad......" Wei Yun thought, her face even more blushing, as if the sunset in the sky was imprinted on her face.

"What's the bad thing you're thinking?" Lu Ziyi scratched the tip of her nose.

"Not really!" Wei Yunjiao hummed and denied it.

Lu Ziyi smiled slightly, and didn't ask, "Let's go, it's time to go back." ”

"Okay." Wei Yun reluctantly got up.

……

A year later.

Guard.

Today is Wei Yun's fifteenth year old and the ceremony.

Wei Yun has become a well-known beauty in Guzhou. Many dignitaries and dignitaries came to ask for marriage, but they were all rejected by Wei Yanghao.

Liu Wei curled her hair for her and said lovingly: "Yun'er, from today onwards, you will be a big girl!" ”

Wei Yun served tea to her parents and said, "Yun'er thanks her father and mother for her nurturing grace, Yun'er will definitely honor her father and mother in the future!" ”

"Good!" Wei Yanghao drank the tea and laughed.

"Sister Jilu, this is my adult gift to you." Lu Ziyi sent a sword.

This is designed and built by him himself, and the three big characters "Liuyun Sword" are written on it.

"Thank you, brother!" Wei Yun happily accepted the sword.

"There is one more thing to be decided for the father today!" Wei Yanghao looked at Wei Yun and Lu Ziyi.

He said: "Yun'er is an adult, and Lu Ziyi, you are also an adult." The two of you have always had a good relationship, and you are talented and beautiful. Therefore it is for the Father to decide that you should make a marriage contract, what do you think? ”

Wei Yun's face was red, she glanced at Lu Ziyi shyly, and then said to Wei Yanghao: "My daughter is all up to her father. ”

Wei Yun is beautiful in appearance, lively and cheerful, Lu Ziyi is also happy with her, so naturally he did not refuse: "Father-in-law is kind, don't dare to refuse!" ”

"Still called the father-in-law?" Liu Wei teased.

"Dad, mother!" Lu Ziyi served them tea.

"Hahahaha!" Wei Yanghao laughed, "Good! The two of you will decide to get married today, and when the situation in Guzhou is stable, you will choose a good day and an auspicious day to get married! ”

……

Lu Ziyi and Wei Yun are engaged, and the relationship between the two is one step closer.

But the situation in the world is even worse.

The uprising of the Shenlong Army was basically quelled, and it is said that the three Shenlong generals were missing. The army of millions of dragons seemed to disappear overnight!

The Shenlong Army is gone, but because of years of harsh government, there are still many rebels in various parts of the world. Moreover, because of the decentralization of power by the imperial court, the local separatist forces began to rise, and now it is still nominally the Dasheng Dynasty, but it is difficult for the emperor to command the local warlords and state pastors.

The land of Guzhou, where Lu Ziyi is located, has not been able to settle down.

Guzhou is on the border of the Dasheng Dynasty, and the west is next to the Xiqiang tribes, and the Xiqiang tribes often plunder, they see that the Dasheng Dynasty is weak, and they also have the idea of seizing land, so that the war in Guzhou has hardly stopped.

Inside the Guard.

"Brother Yi, stay up!" Wei Yun's excited voice came, and then, I saw her come over with a bowl of steaming decoction.

She proudly showed off: "Look, I made the "Dragon and Tiger Strong Body Soup" according to your recipe!" Drink it, and you'll be able to advance to the fifth grade! ”

Lu Ziyi was surprised: "These medicinal materials are very expensive, where did you get the silver?" ”

Over the years, it's not that he doesn't want to boil, it's just that the price of medicinal materials is high, and Wei Yanghao is an honest official, and his family doesn't have any wealth to squander, so he has been shelving.

"I've got a few pieces of jewelry!" Wei Yun pretended to be relaxed and said.

"Silly girl, that's the dowry your mother left you!" Lu Ziyi touched her head and said helplessly: "Okay, my brother will help you redeem it in the future, buy a better one!" ”

"Uh-huh! Brother Yi, drink quickly! Wei Yun said expectantly, "Dad said that as long as you reach Wupin, I will help you find a position with the state pastor, and you will be able to make contributions at that time!" ”

Lu Ziyi waited for the medicinal soup to cool down a little and drank it in one gulp.

He began to practice the method of luck, the original "Brute Bull Jin" has been given up by him, and now he is practicing a high-grade internal martial arts "Hao Ran Qi", this exercise is naturally taught to him by Wei Yanghao, it is said that it was created by a martial arts master, and the highest can be practiced to the realm of a grade!

The medicinal effect of "Dragon and Tiger Strong Body Soup" dissolved in his body, and Lu Ziyi only felt a heat from the inside out, as if there was a flame burning in his body!

He hurriedly activated his internal qi to digest the energy. With one cycle after another, the energy was gradually absorbed by him.

When Lu Ziyi opened his eyes, he had already reached the five-rank realm!

"Brother Yi, how is it?" Wei Yun has been waiting by the side.

Lu Ziyi slapped a palm, and the energy shot out from his body, smashing the wooden stake a few feet away into pieces!

"Inside and out! Brother Yi, you have reached the fifth grade! Wei Yun said happily.

"Yun'er, thanks to you!" Lu Ziyi took Wei Yun's hand, "How can I thank you?" ”

He stared at Wei Yun with burning eyes, at this time Lu Ziyi's heart was still hot, and Wei Yun was pretty and crimson, which made people want to take a bite.

Lu Ziyi lowered her head slightly, wanting to kiss it, Wei Yun also closed her eyes, she was nervous and expectant, and her eyelashes kept shaking slightly.

Just as Lu Ziyi was about to take away her first kiss, a voice came: "Ziyi, Yun'er, quickly, go to the mansion of the state pastor with your father!" ”

"Ahh Wei Yun hurriedly broke free, Lu Ziyi smiled slightly, and also went out, at this time, Wei Yanghao's expression was serious, his brows were tightly locked, and it seemed that something big had happened.

"What's going on?" Lu Ziyi asked.

Wei Yanghao took a deep breath and said, "Lord Zhou Mu has passed away!" We're going to mourn! ”

"That's what happened!" Lu Ziyi was also shocked in his heart.

Xu Sheng is not only the state pastor of Guzhou, but also Wei Yanghao's teacher. As soon as he died of illness, the position of Guzhou Governor became vacant.

The governor of a state is no different from the emperor of the soil in this era!

Under normal circumstances, Xu Sheng's family should nominate another virtuous successor.

But there is still a powerful force in Guzhou. That is the power of Ding Han, the commander of the cavalry, as the number one person in charge of the military power in Guzhou, the years of war have made his power even stronger!

Ding Han has always been at odds with Xu Sheng, if Ding Han becomes the next Guzhou pastor, it will be a disaster for Xu Sheng's follower Wei Jia!

Lu Ziyi and Wei Yun followed Wei Yanghao to Xu Sheng's house to offer condolences.

On the Xu Mansion, a mourning hall has been set up, and everyone burns incense and worships one by one.

The entire Xu family, as well as Xu Sheng's subordinates, all looked worried, and they were all worried about the next situation.

Wei Yanghao was mourning, and a report from outside the mansion came from his subordinates: "Lord Ding has arrived!" ”

Hearing this, everyone stood up and looked outside.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing armor and leading soldiers, swaggering in, and the white catties of condolences were thrown aside by them.
