Chapter 60: Double Happiness Comes to the Door
When Jiang Huai returned to Shangde Academy on the second day, for nearly half a day, the little civet cat innocently kept talking about the young man.
Which one in Tai'an City has delicious food and what is so interesting.
and privately found a girl from a family for him.
Chatter, bell-ringing.
But as long as Jiang Huai showed a little impatience, the little civet cat turned his back and collapsed his face, muttering something in a low voice.
The boy had no choice but to listen to it for fun.
The weather is gradually getting cooler, there is a breeze from time to time, and the autumn air is crisp, and there are pleasant scenes everywhere.
But no matter how beautiful the flowers and plants are, they can't compare to the girl who is in her prime.
At this time, there was a girl in a white dress standing in front of Jiang Huai's dragon head residence, and a purple belt above Qianqian's thin waist was particularly eye-catching.
The girl's face is red in protein, and although the jade face is a little green, it is enough to make people lose their souls.
Jiang Huai was still bowing his head and constantly composing his experience, feeling that the little civet cat was suddenly hiding behind him, and Cechenino was very panicked.
He then looked up at the door, so that the girl who was like a hibiscus out of the water came to look at each other, and by the way, he saw the figure that made the little civet cat so flustered.
It was an old man whose face was as pale as hair, but with long nails and extremely sharp eyes.
Jiang Huai instantly felt a chill on his back, but he remembered that this was the capital of Tai'an, and it was in this Shangde Academy, could he still dare to commit murder here.
But just thinking of this, the old man didn't laugh softly: "Don't be afraid that our family will hurt you, it's just that you've been rolling in the dead for a long time, and everyone looks at it like this." ”
Jiang Huai took back the book, got up and hugged his fists and said, "I don't know what the seniors call it." ”
"Title, call me Father-in-law Zhou. ”
The young man was suddenly a little surprised, it turned out to be someone from the palace, but what was going on with him.
The girl in the white dress was already a little impatient, and she pouted and prepared to leave.
The white-haired old man didn't do the slightest thing to stop him, although he had been given the right to point fingers, he just raised his eyebrows and sighed: "Emperor Zhou has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and in the end, there is still no one to help." ”
The girl immediately stopped, glared at the almond eyes and scolded angrily: "I don't want to marry a nerd, I want to marry you!"
Jiang Huai suddenly laughed dumbly, what kind of play is this.
Seeing that although the girl's face was full of anger, she didn't take a step, the old eunuch put her hands together and smiled: "Our family is here mainly to congratulate Jiang Xiaoyou on his double happiness, and I hope you don't be surprised if you don't say hello." ”
After learning the identity of the other party, the young man hurriedly returned the salute, but he was still puzzled in his heart.
The old eunuch stretched out a finger and said with a smile: "The first joy is that Jiang Xiaoyou shined in the battle of that street, defeating Dong Li, who ranked seventh on the hidden dragon list, in one fell swoop, so he was selected into the hidden dragon list, and the ranking was not low, in the fifth place." ”
Jiang Huai didn't say anything about this.
The old eunuch glanced at the young man's face, a trace of pride appeared on his face, and then stretched out a finger and said loudly: "The second joy is that the contemporary Zhou Emperor of my Chongyang Kingdom admires you very much, and is ready to give you a marriage, can you agree?"
After these words, the girl behind the old eunuch had crimson cheeks, and simply turned her back to prevent others from seeing this shameful color.
Without waiting for the young man to answer, the old eunuch added: "As for this matter, Emperor Zhou has already negotiated with your husband, and your husband said that you have no parents, so you don't need to do other tedious things, as long as you nod your head." ”
Jiang Huai pestle was in place, unable to recover from the shock for a long time, and he only had to nod his head for marriage.
He immediately remembered the Xie Qiu girl he met in Jiangfang County, and hurriedly shook his head, ready to refuse.
The old eunuch smiled sideways: "Don't give me an answer first, can you take a walk with our family." ”
Jiang Huai nodded, and the little civet cat suddenly grabbed the sleeve of the young man's coat, crawled into the young man's ear with a wrinkled face and whispered: "I can't go with that person, I feel a very heavy murderous aura from him." ”
The old eunuch raised his eyebrows, and he immediately hid back in the house, not daring to nag a word.
Jiang Huai got up and hugged his fists and said, "I hope that Father-in-law Zhou will not see outside." ”
When the two of them walked past the girl, they did not look back.
Although the girl named Zhou Jingwan looked a little angry, she didn't really dislike this young man she had never met from the bottom of her heart, but she just hated her unreasonable brother.
But now she was really angry, and after the two left, she hurriedly took out a delicate and small bronze mirror from her arms, looked up and down a few times, and then stomped her feet and hummed: "If you want to refuse, Miss Ben will reject you, this girl is so beautiful, how can she cheapen you nerd." ”
In a covered bridge in Shangde Academy, Jiang Huaiyu walked side by side with the old eunuch.
There are usually not many people in the academy, so no one disturbs the conversation between the two.
The old eunuch sighed with emotion: "Our family has heard some of your past from your husband's mouth, although the life is a little harder, but finally he is still alive and easy, unlike us old guys who are half buried in the yellow mud, I don't know when we will report to Lord Yama." ”
The boy only listened to it, and he didn't plan to talk deeply about this kind of past.
The two sat down in a pavilion, and the old eunuch pressed a light curtain with one hand before continuing: "Since there are only you and me here, then our family will tell you the truth, although your husband said that you may agree, but no matter from his tone or subtext, the probability of you not agreeing is ten percent." ”
"As for why I still want to make this trip when I know I can't do it, it's really difficult to disobey the order of the master at the head of our family. ”
The boy, who had been out of the town for a while, probably guessed the connotation, and tried to ask, "Is there such a thing because of my husband?"
The old eunuch neither shook his head nor nodded, calmly took a lotus flower from the pool not far in front of him, put it between his two fingers and twisted it gently, and then flew into the air on his own, not knowing where to float.
Outside the covered bridge, there happened to be a man with a wine gourd on his waist who witnessed this scene and said, "It's not my own thing, so I don't feel distressed." ”
After the handsome man finished speaking, he immediately ran away, not daring to linger for a moment.
The old eunuch sighed a little impatiently, raised his head and said: "Our family said that you used to live quite comfortably, not that life was bitter or not, but that you are still alive, since you are alive, how can you not be comfortable." ”
He then smiled nonchalantly: "Actually, our family really doesn't care if this Chongyang country is surnamed Zhou or not, but if you look at which of the other five countries in addition to my Chongyang Kingdom admires Confucianism and Taoism, there should be very few." If you think that one day studying is not only not a good thing, but also a bad thing to scoff at, or become a prisoner of some beasts, you say that it is not bad. ”
Jiang Huai thought thoughtfully, took a long breath, and asked, "Whether Zhou Gongshu can open the skylight and say something bright, I don't understand these things a little." ”
The old eunuch squinted, took out a small sharp cone from his sleeve, and said while trimming his nails: "It's mainly a matter from a while ago, there is a terrible guy who went to a place where he may live forever, people will have desires, and saints are no exception." ”
Jiang Huai shook his head, "It doesn't matter to me what my husband wants to do. ”
Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you really stupid or fake?" Regardless of whether Kong Xin'an has that kind of mind or not, if his only disciple is still in danger, how can he see it?"
He sneered, "It's not that our family is greedy for life and afraid of death and doesn't want to be a bird, but it's not time yet." ”
The old eunuch got up and asked, "Jiang Huai, do you agree to this marriage?" ”
The boy hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head.
The old eunuch immediately raised his voice a little, "Do you know how much disaster the Chongyang Kingdom and even the whole world will suffer if a few more people directly step on Tai'an in the future, and your husband happens to pursue the so-called immortality." Besides, what status Emperor Zhou's own sister is, don't take advantage of it and behave well. ”
The sharp voice paused, and continued: "Do you agree to this marriage?" ”
"No!"
The old eunuch was stunned, took off his momentum, showed a hint of indifference, and raised his eyebrows: "Tell me the reason." ”
The young man said in a deep voice: "What is my husband going to do, how can I, as a disciple, point fingers." Besides, I have a girl I like, how can I break my promise? ”
"I can't do it with my own selfish desires in exchange for the peace of hundreds of thousands of people, and I can't do it with small righteousness, and I keep saying that Mr. Disciple, our family is ashamed of you. ”
While the old man was talking, his sleeves were swinging open, and there was even more invisible momentum that pressed the young man so much that he couldn't raise his head.
The sun and moon vibrated in the young man's body, like the morning sun emitting endless light, gradually enveloping the young man's whole person in brilliance.
The old eunuch narrowed his eyes and stretched out a hand to pluck off a ray of brilliance from the young man's body, but as soon as he started it, it turned into an autumn breeze and dispersed.
Vaguely, I heard a reply in the old man's ear, "If there is a day, the gentleman is unwilling, and the disciple will definitely obey it." ”
The old eunuch snorted coldly and turned to leave.
The dragon head of the fish and dragon courtyard was inside, and the girl in the white dress had already left without permission.
When the old man passed by, he was not surprised by this, it was not the temper of the eldest lady to stay here.
When he arrived at the palace, Zhou Xun was reviewing the documents, and when he saw the old eunuch returning, he looked up and asked, "What is the result?" ”
Zhou Sheng smiled bitterly: "Emperor Zhou's guess is not much different, but that young man is a little unexpected to me." ”
"Oh, how do you say that. ”
"There seems to be something remarkable in the disciple that Kong Xin'an brought back, the old slave just oppressed the young man for a breath, and a strange light broke out of his body, and just a trace of it dispelled the old slave's murderous aura for decades. ”
Zhou Xun groaned for a while and sighed, "Where is Wan'er now?"
The old eunuch shook his head.
In Jixian Academy, Kong Xin'an was playing music alone, and Ding Qiu was squatting at the door in front of the house drinking stuffy wine.
Ding Qiu sneered and said: "That old guy is really disgusting, he even played with his arms and gave him a hug, and that little girl looks really good." ”
Seeing that the man didn't pay attention to it, Ding Qiu was a little impatient and pursed his lips, "Do you really want to go to Sword Mountain?"
The old man with a ruler on his waist withdrew his chess pieces and kicked this fellow disciple out of the hospital.
