Volume 2 Burning from the Fire 0247 Zhou Shuyi
Marrying Zhou Shuyi is much more complicated than Liu Bin imagined, I remember seeing on TV in ancient times, marrying a wife is a sedan chair to take back to the house, and invite relatives and friends to have a meal.
But Zhou Shuyi is the daughter of the prime minister after all, and the Ministry of Rites and Qin Tianjian jointly organized the wedding, which also saved the trouble of the Hou Mansion, everything was arranged, and Liu Bin only waited for him to marry his wife.
Speaking of his wife, Ding Linghou and Liu Bin said that Zhou Zhaozhong's daughter is indeed outstanding in appearance, if it weren't for their own masters, among the children of the ministers in the court, Liu Bin would also be a good match.
Qin Tianjian set the wedding date to be held seven days later, Liu Bin was inexplicably a little nervous, the Hou Mansion had been cleaned up after a few days, and the decoration had been decorated, and the Hou Mansion was full of joy.
However, in the Xiangfu across a few streets, it is diametrically opposed, only the door of the Xiangfu is hung with red silk, and everything in the house is the same as before, and it seems that the marriage is not Zhou Zhaozhong's original intention.
"Xiao Tao, you said that the son of Dingling often lingers in the land of fireworks and is a frequent visitor to Yixiang Building, but is it true?" In the lightly fragrant boudoir, Zhou Shuyi was sitting in front of the dresser, and the personal maid Xiao Tao was combing the young lady's hair.
"Well, that's true, I heard that a few days ago, Liu Gongzi was still in conflict with the people of the Flame Flying Eagle because of the competition for the Oiran of Yixiang Building, and in the end, it was the second prince who came forward to stop the development of things. ”
"Oh?" Zhou Shuyi raised her eyebrows, and the look of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
"How powerful the people of the Flame Flying Eagle are, if the second prince hadn't arrived in time, presumably Liu Gongzi might not have had the opportunity to marry Miss, it's a pity. ”
"I really can't figure it out, the entire Agni Fire Country knows that Xiang Ye is the person of the eldest prince, why does Xiang Ye still ask the emperor to marry and marry the young lady to such a person. Xiao Tao is obviously a straightforward person, and one sentence expressed the doubts in Zhou Shuyi's heart.
"Liu Bin, the son of Dingling Hou, used to be a disciple of the Immortal Sect of Qi Tianzong, and it is not a grievance to be able to commit himself to him. ”
"That was before, but now I heard that he is a wasted person, powerless to restrain chickens, and he can't write, and he doesn't understand any music!"
"My father has his own considerations, the emperor gave marriage, this is a great honor, my father entrusted me with important tasks in the court, and I also want to make some modest efforts. Zhou Shuyi said quietly.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside, Zhou Shuyi made a silent gesture, Xiao Tao immediately shut up, and the knock on the door also sounded at the same time.
"Miss, Xiangye invites you to go to the study to talk. ”
"I know, I'll go after dressing up for Miss in a while. Xiao Tao replied.
Zhou Shuyi is naturally beautiful, a beauty, sixteen years old, like a hibiscus out of the water, giving people a fresh and refined feeling.
The famous beauties in the Agni City, as well as many high-ranking officials and nobles, came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage, but they were all rejected by the Prime Minister on the grounds that they were too young and excused.
Xiao Tao's hand sped up, groomed Zhou Shuyi properly, took a picture in the bronze mirror, and nodded in praise.
Moved the lotus step, went to the study to talk to his father, and when he put away his smile, he was even more cold and elegant.
When he came to Zhou Zhaozhong's study, Xiao Tao did not follow him in, Zhou Shuyi entered alone, Xiao Tao helped close the door and waited a few meters away from the door.
"I've seen my father. Zhou Shuyi gave a salute, and saw that his father was writing with a brush, but he just nodded slightly, did not look up, and stood aside obediently to help grind, and no longer made a sound.
Zhou Zhaozhong is passionate about calligraphy, as long as he has something on his mind, he will practice calligraphy, his calligraphy is unique, and his style is diametrically opposed to other calligraphers.
The four big characters of "ever-changing" soon appeared on the rice paper, the font was clearly defined to the back, and the center of gravity was extremely stable, just so that the structure was perfect, and Zhou Shuyi couldn't help but praise it in his heart.
"Yi'er, do you have any thoughts about the relatives that your father found for you?" Zhou Zhaozhong put down his pen and suddenly asked.
"Marriage is the order of parents, the words of the matchmaker, the daughter obeys the arrangement of the father, and the son of the tomb must be a good match. Zhou Shuyi's mood did not change, and her answer was decent.
"Yi'er, although you are not my biological son, but your father has always regarded it as his own, and now the emperor is unwell, if it weren't for the help of Doctor Wang, I'm afraid it would have been a long time ago... Who can inherit the throne between the eldest prince and the second prince has reached a critical moment, and I hope Yi'er can share the burden for her father..."
Zhou Shuyi didn't expect that her father would say it so bluntly, and she couldn't help but feel sour.
"Father's orders are that Yi'er must cooperate!"
"Okay, okay! Yi'er came here to sit. ”
Zhou Zhaozhong said hello three times in a row, pulled Zhou Shuyi to sit down, picked up the teacup and took a sip, looking at his adopted daughter, he couldn't help but feel a little pity.
Zhou Shuyi is Zhou Zhaozhong's wife, the daughter of Mrs. Xiangfu's sister, Zhou Zhaozhong can't have children, and he doesn't want to be criticized, so when Zhou Shuyi was a child, he asked to pass her to Xiangfu, and very few people know about it.
"My father knows that I have wronged you, this time you married to Dingling Houfu, and I want to help my father figure out these things..."
Half an hour later, Zhou Shuyi walked out of the study, just in time to meet Wan Cassia Ming's visit, and the two walked on opposite sides.
Wan Cianming showed an obscene look in his eyes, Zhou Shuyi was disgusted in his heart, gave a salute, and left in a hurry with Xiao Tao.
At this time, Chen Kun came with a congratulatory gift, tomorrow is the master's wedding day, as an apprentice, he must prepare gifts carefully.
When he learned of the marriage, Chen Kun began to prepare, and specially purchased a night pearl from a large amount of money as a congratulatory gift.
Liu Bin took it in his hand, played with it for a while, and sighed in his heart, if the fist-sized night pearl is placed in the earth auction, it will definitely be sold for a sky-high price, and it may not be worth more than Furong Villa.
If he and Shen Baoyin can go back, won't he be rich, Liu Bin did not refuse, and accepted it directly, Chen Kun couldn't help but be happy when he saw this, it seems that the gift he chose, the master is quite satisfied.
"How's the Whirlwind Slash practice?" Liu Bin asked, putting the Night Pearl on the table.
"The apprentice practiced day and night, and he could already gather spiritual power into the palm of his hand, but his cultivation was still low and could not be condensed and formed. Chen Kun replied truthfully, with a little shame on his face.
"Well, there may be changes in the situation of breaking through the fifth order of the Qi cultivation period, remember that when condensing spiritual power, you must pay attention, otherwise even if you have enough spiritual power, you will not be able to condense and form. Liu Bin reminded.
"Yes, master!"
"By the way, I asked you to inquire about the news of Blackwater City, do you have a reply?"
"I sent a few of my right-hand men to Blackwater City, but they are all mortal soldiers, and the journey is long, and it may take some time!" Chen Kun replied seriously.
"Well, let me know as soon as the news comes back. The situation outside is unpredictable, although Liu Bin is anxious, he can only wait with peace of mind.
