Chapter 147: Recruiting Relatives by Competition
Gu Haoyin really didn't have any arrangements today, and after she was full, she went to the street with Gu Wenbin.
At this hour, there are already many pedestrians on the street.
The newly opened restaurant in Xicheng is not close to the Gu family, and it takes more than half an hour to arrive by carriage.
The two got out of the car when they got to the street where the restaurant was located.
"It's pretty lively."
"Yes, there are a lot of merchants living here in Xicheng, although it doesn't seem to be as majestic as the street that comes out of the imperial city, but it is very prosperous, and there are a lot of people who come here every day to do business."
"Hurry up, it's gone if it's too late."
"What are you doing so fast?"
"Little brother doesn't know, the eldest lady in the Zhennan General's Mansion in front of her wants to compete in martial arts to recruit relatives, and she set up a platform in front, saying that everyone who signs up can get one or two silvers regardless of winning or losing, and the quota is only one hundred, and if you go late, it will be gone."
That's a tael of silver, after taking the silver, they just go to the stage and pretend to be dead, the maximum is two punches, and the lady of the General's Mansion will not kill him, and it is not difficult to earn this tael of silver at all.
Gu Haoyin and Gu Wenbin looked at each other at the people who were in high spirits, anyway, they came out to play, and it didn't hurt to have a good time.
The two followed behind the people to the ring of the martial arts competition.
When they arrived, there were already a lot of people in front of the ring.
Many people are actively signing up for the competition.
"Who is this General Wen?"
"My aunt and grandmother don't know, this Zhennan general is a famous general, more than ten years ago he only used 50,000 troops to repel the 100,000 troops of Nanlin Kingdom, and made great achievements for our country, I heard my father say that the emperor was so happy at that time that he married Princess Yinrong into the Zhennan General's Mansion as a noblewoman."
The so-called marriage is that even if the identity of the princess Yinrong is still there, after marrying, she can only call herself the general's wife like an ordinary noblewoman, and the general Zhennan can still serve the country.
can let the princess get married, which shows that the emperor really likes this general.
"But ......"
"Halfway through the conversation, look for a fight."
Gu Wenbin said: "I just heard that the heir of this great general is a little difficult. ”
Gu Haoyin raised her eyebrows with her hands around her chest, "The heir is difficult? ”
"That's right, after the general got married, Princess Yinrong has been nothing, and all kinds of methods have been tried, but it is useless, and then she got pregnant only after being guided by a master."
"At that time, the two of them were full of expectations that it was a man, but what was born was a daughter, although the husband and wife were also a little disappointed, but there was better than nothing, but since this daughter was born, there has been no addition to the general's mansion, even if it is a concubine, no one can conceive an heir."
After Gu Wenbin finished speaking, he saw Gu Haoyin looking at him upright.
"Grandma, why are you looking at me like this?"
"How did you know these things so clearly?"
Gu Wenbin picked his peach blossom eyes, and said with a proud smile: "Hehe, my aunt and grandmother don't know, my mother has a handkerchief with a good relationship and is a nurse in the Zhennan General's Mansion, and the milk is the eldest lady who wants to compete in martial arts today." ”
Gu Miaoyin was stunned.
While the two were talking, more and more people gathered in front of the ring to watch the excitement, and the number of places to sign up over there was also full.
The people from the General's Mansion told everyone who signed up to wait behind the ring.
"Huh? Aunt and grandmother, do you think that person looks like a second brother? ”
Gu Haoyin followed Gu Wenbin's line of sight, and sure enough, she saw a familiar figure.
Gu Wenque didn't notice the two of them, and walked straight to the back of the ring.
"Okay, the second brother actually secretly came behind our backs to participate in the martial arts competition to recruit relatives, if he is short of silver, just tell me, do you use it to run to fight with a woman for this two silver?"
Gu Haoyin shook his head, "Anyway, he has already signed up, let's just watch." ”
Soon, someone who looked like an entourage walked to the ring with a gong.
The sound of gongs and drums sounded, making everyone's eyes fall on the stage.
"Thank you for coming today, today is the ring match of the eldest lady in the Zhennan General's Mansion to recruit relatives, I am here to tell you the rules of the game."
"This competition is divided into a two-person competition system, that is, we will be randomly divided, let the 100 contestants who participate in the competition first, and finally choose one to compete with the eldest lady, if the eldest lady can accept defeat, then he will be able to win the opportunity to marry the eldest lady."
After clarifying the rules of the game, the entourage retreated.
The contestants in the back have already drawn lots.
Soon, the first group of players took the field.
Gu Haoyin stood below and yawned.
These people are either pretending, or they are pure rookies, they can't even count their fists and embroidered legs, they really don't have anything to look at, if it weren't for being curious about Gu Wenque's performance, Gu Haoyin would have left by now.
Gu Wenbin saw that she was bored, so he took Gu Haoyin to the wing room on the second floor of the teahouse next to her, and sat by the window to see the situation in the ring.
As soon as the guy brought the hot tea, the two saw Gu Wenque come on stage.
The kid who fought against Gu Wenque looked at his thin arms and legs, and he looked like he had never practiced martial arts.
Sure enough, as soon as Gu Wenque's posture was opened, the other party lay on the ground, and his body began to foam at the mouth as soon as he twitched.
Gu Wenque was so frightened that he looked confused.
The people from the General's Mansion hurriedly stepped forward and carried the people down to announce Gu Wenque's victory.
At this time, Princess Yinrong, who was standing in the building behind the ring, looked at the people in the ring, and the delicate makeup on her face could not hide the gloom in her eyes.
"It's really nonsense, I told that kid before, what kind of martial arts competition is not reliable at all, she just doesn't listen, look at who they are recruited."
If it weren't for her daughter's sudden propose, she would have had time to prepare enough, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to let these indiscriminate people come to power.
"It's really a shame for the General's Mansion."
"Madame, the eldest lady finally relented and agreed to find Lang Jun to marry, you let her come first, don't spoil her interest, and then you can find a suitable person to find a suitable person."
Thinking of her daughter Princess Yinrong, she was worried, that was her pampered daughter, when she was a child, she was really afraid of falling and afraid of melting.
Who knows that when she is raised, she will be disobedient, and she has to make her own decisions about everything, she and the general are often angry, but she only has one daughter and can only be spoiled.
Now, give them this one.
"You can keep an eye on it, and you must not let the mess stay until the end."
"Madame, rest assured, the slave has already told the housekeeper that at least those who stay until the end are innocent."
Princess Yinrong nodded, but her eyebrows full of sorrow did not stretch for a long time.
