Chapter 61: Finger Belly for Marriage

Xie Zhenliang walked aimlessly on the street.

His mind was a little confused, not very bright, in fact, he didn't think about anything, it was empty, but he always seemed to be able to smell the fragrance of Xiaofeng girl floating in front of him just now.

Why didn't I say a few more words to her at that time?

He was a little annoyed, but when he thought of Miss Xiaofeng, he couldn't help but feel a sweet feeling in his heart, and the two contradictory feelings were tangled in his heart, rolling, and making him stupid, and he was stunned and only knew how to step forward, but he didn't know where to go.

He just walked alone in the empty and dark streets at night, and the scene looked a little weird.

Suddenly, someone patted him on the shoulder from behind, and a familiar voice sounded: "Second brother!"

Xie Zhenliang Huo Ran looked back, and in front of him was a face that was bigger and rounder than a basin, and the person who came was his sworn brother, Zhang Idiot Zhang Fat.

Surprised, he asked, "Why are you? Why are you here?"

With a somewhat suspicious look, Zhang Fatzi looked the second brother Xie Zhenliang in front of him up and down, and felt that there was some unfamiliar feeling.

Originally, he came to the street to look for the traces of his second brother according to Ye Feng's instructions, but he searched and searched, and he didn't find anything after looking around.

Unexpectedly, he turned a street corner and saw from a distance that Jian Zhenliang was wandering in the empty street with a strange expression, and he didn't even notice that he walked behind him.

He couldn't help but ask, "I should have asked you, right? Everyone was together just now, why did you suddenly walk away? Where have you been?"

Xie Zhenliang was asked by him, and suddenly came back to his senses, but he couldn't tell Zhang Fatzi that he was following Fan Jin, because he lost it. How can we explain such a fruitless thing to others?

So he just said lightly and casually: "It's nothing, it's just that I was a little uncomfortable just now, so I went out for a walk casually." ”

"Uncomfortable?" Zhang Fatzi looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "Are you feeling better now?"

Xie Zhenliang hurriedly shook his head and said, "No need, I just felt a little bored in my chest just now, but now I feel much better." ”

Zhang Fatzi nodded and said, "That's good, the fourth child and they all went out, something happened during your absence, I will accompany you back to the inn first and then tell you slowly." ”

Oh, yes, go back to the inn first.

Xie Zhenliang took a step in a bit of confusion and walked forward with Zhang Fatzi.

Suddenly, his heart was alert, how could he be so confused now?

He couldn't help but open his mouth and asked Zhang Fatzi: "Have you ever had such a feeling, when you are facing someone, you will feel both happy and nervous in your heart, and even your own heartbeat can be heard very clearly, and after separation, looking back, you also feel a little sweet and a little regretful, a very complicated feeling?"

He didn't know why he suddenly asked Zhang Fatzi like this, but he felt like he wanted to say something to others for a while, and vented for a while.

Zhang Fatzi listened and replied casually: "Yes, this is how I felt when I faced the butterfly girl. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Fatzi suddenly woke up, looked back at Xie Zhenliang with some astonishment, and said, "Second brother, Mo Fei, you ...... it."

Xie Zhenliang was a little impatient

Annoyedly, he asked, "What do you want to say?"

Zhang Fatzi pretended to be mysterious: "What did you go to just now? Did you meet some girl?"

"What kind of girl is not a girl? nonsense!" Xie Zhenliang rebuked solemnly.

He can't admit to Zhang Fatzi what he saw Xiaofeng just now, this dead fat man didn't hide his mouth, telling him was tantamount to announcing it to the world, and soon everyone would know.

He must not be made aware of this.

He flatly denied it, but Zhang Fatzi obviously didn't think so.

He sank his face a little unexpectedly, and said seriously: "Second brother, don't forget, you still have a wife who hasn't passed through the door in the capital!"

The wife who did not pass through the door, Xie Zhenliang's heart was suddenly shocked.

Yes, in the capital, I still have a woman waiting for me to marry!

This woman is the daughter of Hu Guang, one of the first assistants of the dynasty in the capital, a scholar.

The marriage between him and Hu Guang's daughter is quite legendary.

Hu Guang and Xie Zhenliang's father, Xie Jin, a bachelor with the reputation of "the world's first talent", have known each other since childhood, and the two are not only fellow villagers, but also classmates, but Xie Jin's entry into the office was much earlier than Hu Guang.

As early as the twenty-first year of Hongwu, Xie Jinting tried to ascend to the Jinshidi, and his knowledge and talent were appreciated by Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and he was ordered to be a bachelor of Hanlin and often stayed by his side.

It's a pity that Xie Jin is young and vigorous, too arrogant and arrogant, and sharp, offended many courtiers and caused a lot of dissatisfaction. Zhu Yuanzhang believed that Xie Jin still lacked self-restraint and needed to strengthen his cultivation, otherwise he would easily become the target of attack by the ministers of the court.

So in the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu summoned Jianjin's father and ordered him to take Xie Jin home, study behind closed doors, and cultivate his mind.

This reading has been read until the thirty-first year of Hongwu, when Emperor Taizu died, Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, and Xie Jin returned to the court.

It was not until the second year of Jianwen that Hu Guang participated in the palace examination in Jinling, became the first champion of the first class of the hand-picked Jinshi, and entered the middle of the dynasty.

Soon after, the Battle of Jingyan ended, Emperor Jianwen was defeated and disappeared, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, ascended the throne as the emperor, Xie Jin and Hu Guang were among the first ministers in the court to welcome the emperor of Yan, plus the knowledge and reputation of these two, so Zhu Di trusted and relied on them in particular.

It is said that at a banquet, when Hu Guang's wife was pregnant and waiting to give birth, Zhu Di took advantage of the wine and said to Hu Guang that if he gave birth to a daughter, Xie Jin happened to have a son, and the two could be married, so that they would be friends who were both fellow villagers and classmates, and now they were colleagues, and became in-laws.

Hu Guang has always been exquisite, seeing the wind and making the rudder, Xie Jin was still very important to Zhu Di in the court at that time, plus his reputation as "the first genius in the world", Hu Guang is naturally willing to help in the court, and it is the emperor's handpick, so naturally there is nothing to do.

Later, Hu Guang's wife really gave birth to a daughter, so it was logical that she was married to Xie Jin's eldest son, and when the young daughter grew up, she had to pass through the door.

This story of marriage was also a good story at the time.

(This story is from the 147th volume of the History of the Ming Dynasty, and is not apocryphal.) )

This Xie Jin's eldest son is Xie Zhenliang.

Therefore, since he was a child, Xie Zhenliang was often ridiculed by other children as a "man with a wife" and was often ridiculed.

But he didn't care, in private, he also secretly went to the Hu family to meet Miss Hu in private, although she

is not a national beauty, and she is shy of flowers in the closed moon, but she is also knowledgeable, gentle and moving, and Xie Zhenliang also has a good impression of her.

Speaking of marriage events, the words of his parents, not to mention that they were appointed by the emperor, so he never resisted this marriage.

But when he met Miss Hu Jia before, he never had that feeling of heartbeat.

Not only Miss Hu, but he had never felt like this to any woman before.

Until just now, he met Xiaofeng Girl, who was holding a little white dog in his arms, that kind of blood was full of blood, his heart was beating faster, and he felt both joy and nervousness, which he felt for the first time in his life.

He didn't quite understand why he felt this way, until Zhang Fatzi told him just now that he felt the same way about the butterfly dance girl.

Zhang Fatzi didn't talk to him a lot before, he really fell in love with the butterfly girl at first sight in the capital, but unfortunately the two are now separated by mountains and rivers, and it is difficult to meet.

Could it be that this feeling is love at first sight?

I have a marriage contract, how can I fall in love with another woman at first sight?

Xie Zhenliang felt a little unbelievable, but this feeling really lingered in his heart and lingered.

In any case, this must not be seen by Zhang Fatzi.

Xie Zhenliang coughed lightly twice, put on a straight face and said, "What wife who hasn't passed the door, don't talk nonsense anymore." ”

Seeing that he was serious, Zhang Fatzi could only stick out his tongue and close his mouth.

Xie Zhenliang quickly changed the topic and asked, "You just said that the fourth child went out, where did they go?"

So Zhang Fatzi told Xie Zhenliang the news that he had found in the inn before about the five members of the old Sun family in Guanzhong who were all infected with the plague and died.

Xie Zhenliang frowned: "So, the fourth child went to Yizhuang with Tang Da to find the corpses of those five people?"

Zhang Fatzi looked at his solemn face, nodded and asked, "Exactly." What, is there any danger in them going here?"

Xie Zhenliang shook his head, with Tang Da by his side, he wasn't too worried about Ye Feng's safety.

This kid has always been blessed with a great life, and with a master like Tang Da to protect him, there must be no problem.

But he didn't know why, but he felt a little uneasy about the sudden death of the five members of the old Sun family in that pass.

How could it be so coincidental that a plague broke out before Ye Feng and his party arrived in Xi'an City, and it was such a coincidence that the person they were going to see was also infected with the plague and died violently.

It all seems to be natural and seamless, but is it really such a coincidence?

Could it be that this plague is actually coming for Ye Feng and his party?

Could it be that this has something to do with the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum that they are going to explore next?

Xie Zhenliang couldn't say clearly, but he vaguely felt in his heart that the trouble this time must be small.

Staying by the side of this fourth brother, when will there be less trouble?

Xie Zhenliang smiled slightly, it seems that this fourth brother is really the same as what Zhang Fatzi said, as if he was born with a special physique that causes trouble, where he is, trouble will automatically come over.

I hope this time, I can get through it safely!

Xie Zhenliang looked up at the few bright stars flashing in the night sky, and muttered silently in his heart.

Seven stars in a row, this day will come soon.
