Xiang'er was stir-frying in the kitchen, and she kept thinking, why did Tianya come to Shouzhou? Today, Xiang'er thought that Tianya would directly kill Liu Renzhen, but she didn't expect him to let Liu Renzhen live. Thinking about it carefully, even if Liu Renzhen died, it didn't matter who was the defender of Shouzhou, the defense here in Shouzhou was too strong, and it was absolutely impossible to attack it.

Sure enough, there is still only the only way to use the end of the world to ambush a wave of Southern Tang naval forces, as long as the Southern Tang naval army is defeated, the Great Zhou army can surround Shouzhou unscrupulously, and no one can stop it at that time.

As long as Shouzhou is besieged to death, the Great Zhou army will be stationed in Shouzhou, and then Shouzhou will be a sword in the throat of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it can seize the Southern Tang Dynasty at any time.

Although Xiang'er is a woman, she listens to Tianya every day to analyze the world's major events, and she understands a little bit of it. It's just that Xiang'er is really not interested in this kind of thing, she just wants to serve her brother Tianya well, and the happiness of the two of them is better than anything else, so it doesn't matter who wins the world in the end.

If Tianya has the intention of seizing the world, Xiang'er will naturally help with all her might, but Tianya is not here, and Xiang'er is certainly not interested in these things.

Shouzhou can't fight for the time being, and the people inside Shouzhou are beginning to relax, although the army is pressing, but because Shouzhou's defense is too strong, everyone doesn't have a sense of tension.

Qizhou

There was a hungry ghost in the palace of the king of Qi, holding a whole table of dishes and stuffing them into his mouth frantically, and there was a beautiful young woman sitting next to him, and the young woman was not happy to see the child hungry like this. I watched him eat until I was full, and I felt a little better.

"Little brother, don't you bring any money when you go out? You are so hungry that you haven't eaten for a long time?"

"I don't remember how long I haven't eaten, but I can count it as seeing food. Zhao Kuangyi said: "If it weren't for the proximity to Qizhou, I really don't know where to eat." I did bring some money with me, but it had long since run out, and I thought I was going to starve to death as I walked along the way. ”

"The second brother is too picky, it's his own brother, how much money did he give? ”

Zhao Kuangyi said: "Two hundred taels...... Gold. The second brother said that it was more convenient to carry gold, and he asked me not to save too much......"

'Papa~~' Zhao Ziyan slapped Zhao Kuangyi twice, and Zhao Kuangyi was stunned in an instant, and he didn't know what was going on.

"You little loser, you can't even afford to eat two hundred taels of gold for a year?

"Sister Ziyan, don't get excited...... I am doing chivalrous righteousness everywhere, and in addition to helping the strong and helping the weak, it is inevitable to use money. When I see those poor people, I can't help but give them a little money. In fact, almost all of the money my second brother gave me was used to help the poor, and I didn't use it myself. ”

Zhao Ziyan nodded, just now I thought that the younger brother had spent two hundred taels of gold, but it turned out to be used to help the poor, which is not bad, at least it is not wasted. In fact, Zhao Valve's people don't bring money when they go out, no matter where they go, they will play white strips, or they will eat overlord meals, and whoever does not accept them will be beaten until he is served.

I heard that the second brother gave Zhao Kuangyi two hundred taels of gold just now, and he was so poor that he had no money to eat...... Zhao Ziyan thought that his younger brother had learned badly and used all the money to spend all his money, so he was so poor that he had no money to eat. As long as you know that you don't learn badly, it's good.

"Little brother, have you found the whereabouts of Tianya?"

"No...... At first, I knew that he appeared in Luoyang, and later went to Weinan. I went to ask Zhao Pu, it is true that Tianya has been to Weinan, but he only left immediately after having a meal in Weinan, and I really don't know where I went. Zhao Kuangyi said depressedly: "So~ I looked everywhere for a whole year. I now know why Master Zongxin named his apprentice Tianya, and it is as difficult to find him as it is to find the ends of the earth. ”

"That'...... Do you have any news of Zong Xin, or any similar rumors?" Zhao Ziyan still cared more about Zong Xin, in fact, she had been looking forward to the day when Zong Xin would come to pick her up, but what she was waiting for was the betrayal of the Zhao family.

Zong Xin is not to blame for this matter, it's just that the people of the Zhao family collaborated to deceive her, and finally let her marry Gao Huaide. In fact, Gao Huaide is not bad, but Zhao Ziyan doesn't like him in his heart.

"Alas~ Second sister, Zongxin is dead, don't you think about it anymore, okay? Fortunately, my brother-in-law is not here, if he hears you ask, he will have to be angry. Zhao Kuangyi said depressedly: "The fact that you failed to marry Master Zongxin is for the rest of the Zhao family, but for the two of us, the loss is too great. You married Gao Huaide, and I couldn't worship Zongxin, if Zongxin is my brother-in-law, I can fool around with a lot of money like Tianya, how happy is this life?"

"Grandpa and eldest brother are dead, who else can we blame? Zhao Ziyan said: "But there is one thing I still care about very much, that is, whether Zong Xin is dead or not." Although our mother kept saying that he was dead, she didn't see Bu Xiangyang burning Zongxin's body, maybe Bu Xiangyang had a way to save him. ”

"Second sister, grandpa's full strength in the sky, let alone Master Zongxin, even if he steps to the sun, he may not be able to catch it. Bu Xiangyang also took advantage of the success of the sneak attack when his grandfather was exhausted, otherwise they would not have won or lost in the fight. Zhao Kuangyi said: "As for Master Zongxin, I would also like to believe that he is not dead, but there is really no evidence that he is not dead." ”

Zhao Ziyan nodded and said, "What you said also makes sense, what have you done this year?"

"Well...... Anyway, I ran all over the world, encountered some strange things, and when I reacted, I ran to the vicinity of Qizhou, just remembering that the second sister was in Qizhou, so I came over for a meal. The life in the rivers and lakes was not as comfortable as I imagined, it was very hard, and it was very poor. ”

"Your cultivation is so poor, that's why you are so hard and poor. I think that when I accompanied Zongxin to explore the rivers and lakes, it was called a comfortable and comfortable place. Zhao Ziyan would have a happy expression on his face whenever he thought of Zong Xin, of course Zhao Kuangyi could see that Zhao Ziyan had never forgotten him after so many years.

But what can be done about this? Now that she is someone else's wife, she can't give Gao Huaide a divorce and then remarry Zongxin. Whether Zongxin is dead or alive is not yet known, the most important thing is...... Even if people live, they may not want her.

"Second sister, you are pregnant with your brother-in-law's child in your belly, and you are thinking about another man in your head, is this appropriate?"

"Think about the double non-sin. Zhao Ziyan touched her belly depressedly, her belly was not small at this time, and the stinky boy in her stomach would be born in a few months. This is Zhao Ziyan's first time being a mother, and she is a little nervous and excited. Although Zhao Ziyan likes Zongxin very much, she is also very sure that she will prefer the child in her belly, no matter who the child's father is.

"By the way, I just have something to discuss with you, you just have to agree, and if you don't agree, you have to agree. ”

"Is that still called discussion?" Zhao Kuangyi looked at the second sister depressedly, and he didn't know what she was going to say.

Zhao Ziyan said: "Of course it's a discussion, you can choose whether to voluntarily agree, or I will ask the second brother to force you to agree." ”

"Let's start with something. ”

Zhao Ziyan said: "My father-in-law, Gao Xingzhou, King of Qi, and Fu Yanqing, King of Wei, have a very good personal relationship, you know this. ”

"Yes. ”

"Wei King Fu Yanqing has three daughters in his family, the eldest daughter Fu Xuanyi and the second daughter Fu Xuanci are all married to Chai Rong, one is the queen and the other is the imperial concubine. The third daughter, Fu Xuande, is only 10 years old this year, and Fu Yanqing hopes to marry the Qi Palace. But King Qi only has Gao Huaide's son, Gao Huaide is so old, he can't let him get engaged to a 10-year-old girl. But if I think about it carefully, I am also a person from the Qi Palace, if it is my younger brother who marries the daughter of Fu Yanqing's family, then Fu Yanqing is equivalent to marrying Qi Wangfu and Zhao Valve at the same time, which is also very important to Fu Yanqing. It is also very important for the Qi Wangfu and Zhao Valve. ”

Zhao Kuangyi was curious: "What's important?"

"Nonsense, your wife is the sister of Empress Chai Rong, who will dare to offend you in the court in the future? Let your wife cry a few words to the queen, and the queen will directly destroy the person who offended you. If the relationship between Zhao Valve and Chai Rong becomes a relative, this will of course be of great benefit to our Zhao Valve. So you have to agree to this matter, and if you don't agree, we will force you to agree. ”

"It's only 10 years old...... Even if you get engaged to a marriage first, it's okay, anyway, it won't be married until a few years later, so I don't have any opinion. ”

"It's best if you can agree, or I'll have to use some tough tactics. Zhao Ziyan said: "Since you agreed, then go to Cangzhou another day to talk back to your future father-in-law." Although I can also send someone back, it is more sincere for you to go in person. By the way, leave a token and your birthday, so that you can be considered a real engagement. ”

"Second sister, I have no problem going to Cangzhou. It's just this way...... I'm not entangled anymore. ”

"It's a trivial matter, this is the Qi Palace, not Zhao Valve. It doesn't matter how much money you want, but the ugly words are said first, if it's more than a hundred taels, you don't have to speak, I don't have that much money. ”

Zhao Kuangyi said depressedly: "Second sister, you are more slamming than the second brother." ”

"Nonsense, how rich is your second brother now?

"Okay, a hundred taels is a hundred taels...... I saved some flowers. Zhao Kuangyi knew that the people in his family were slamming the door, but this was a family tradition, and no one could do anything about it. I hope that the children in the future will not be so picky.

Zhao Kuangyi has abandoned the tradition of Zhao Valve, and he never picks the door. It's just that he has never carried much money with him, but whenever he has money, he will definitely distribute it to the poor, which also causes Zhao Kuangyi to be very poor.
