Chapter eighty-sixth
Chang'an in autumn is full of joy. There may be a good harvest in Shu and Jiangnan. An Lushan, the governor of Fanyang, defeated the Khitan and Xi tribe in the north, and pretended to be the chief and the eight thousand Xi prisoners to celebrate the court. Gao Xianzhi, the governor of the four towns of Anxi, captured the Shi Kingdom and captured the king of the Shi Kingdom. The good news came to the capital, and Chang'an cheered and everyone laughed. As a Tang man in the capital, he was very honored.
Most of the wealthy and powerful circles are not concerned about this. Liuli, the ninth queen who is the most precious to the Tang Dynasty God of Wealth King Yuanbao, will recruit a husband and choose a son-in-law within this month, which is their focus.
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are cheap. However, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, they have attached importance to business, and the status of merchants is very different from before. Besides, the wealthy God King Yuanbao, who is rich enough to rival the country, and the wealthy families and powerful people in the city, who dares to underestimate his status?
Wang Yuanbao has no children, and if he marrys the ninth queen Liuli, who is deeply loved by him, it is possible to inherit the unimaginable wealth of the Wang family. However, Wang Yuanbao does not want this precious daughter to be angry after getting married, so he proposes to marry Wang Liuli, and must be the main wife. This discouraged many eldest sons of powerful families. However, those males of the right age who were born in vain could not help but dream and fell into fantasy.
On the martial arts field in the backyard of Qinhou Mansion, the sword light was like lightning and the figure was astonishing as the sky. Jun Ruochen finished using a sword technique, and stood there in a fluttering clothes, with no drop of sweat on his face.
A gentle and elegant middle-aged man in his thirties looked at Jun Ruochen in the field with a smile, revealing a sense of elegance and calmness in his every move.
"This time, the daughter of the God of Wealth King Yuanbao recruits a husband and chooses a son-in-law. You can also participate and use all your strength to marry the God of Wealth back."
Jun Ruochen, who imitated his father every move, looked at his father Jun Nanfeng in amazement: "I am the legitimate son who wants to inherit the title and marry the daughter of the merchant family as his wife. It is probably difficult for my mother to explain it."
Jun Nanfeng was not as cautious and humble as an ordinary son-in-law in the mansion, and said calmly: "The power of the King's family of the God of Wealth is not that simple. Marrying the ninth queen of the Wang family and inheriting the wealth of the Wang family will help you in the future. What can your mother understand if you are a woman?"
The autumn weather has begun to turn colder, and Cheng Changmu's fat face is sweating like water. He rushed to the roadside study room in a breeze, picked up the teacup on the table without hesitation, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Brother Lelai, Brother Lelai, you must help me this time."
Lu Lili looked at his empty teacup with an ugly expression and said angrily: "I said Fatty Cheng, are we so ripe? We can drink the same cup of tea."
Cheng Changmu waved his fat hand: "Brother, we have known each other for so long, and we have been drinking flower wine with Baihualou and fighting thieves. This friendship is extraordinary. This time I came here. I really have something to do and ask you for help."
Lu LeLe smiled, but he really couldn't stand this mature fat man.
"Haha! What a terrible thing that makes you panic like this."
"Do you know, the God of Wealth King Yuanbao wants to choose a son-in-law for his youngest daughter, which shocked the major events in the capital. The wealthy and powerful families in the city were moving and they were choosing the outstanding disciples in the family to participate in the Wang family's recruitment and son-in-law selection."
Cheng Changmu danced and his expression was very exaggerated.
"Is it that exaggerated to choose a son-in-law in the Wang family?" Lu Li's expression was calm and seemed to be unconcerned.
"I remember back then, the sixth queen of the Wang family, Coral, built an embroidery building and threw a hydrangea ball, and directly hit Xiao Zhang Tanhua, who was ranked first in the Jinshi, creating a good story in Chang'an City. A talented man and beautiful woman formed a relationship, which attracted many envy.
And this ninth queen of the Wang family, Liuli, is not inferior to several sisters, so she can even make countless men bow their heads and look down. She is the most favored by her father, Wang Yuanbao, and marry her into the house and have both wealth and hands. Isn’t that a great thing?”
Cheng Changmu shook his head and his eyes shone, as if he could immediately hug the beauty.
"So, do you also want to attend the bride recruitment conference and prepare to earn both personal finances?" Lu LeLe looked at Cheng Changmu with a smile.
"Oh!" Cheng Changmu sighed long: "What a fat man, I, I know clearly that it is impossible to stand out from so many people. However, my elder brother, Cheng Changyin, has already served as the censor of the palace. The second brother, Cheng Changyi, gave Princess Guangping, so the family ordered me to attend the bride recruitment meeting. If I can't marry Wang Liuli, I will break my legs. What do you think I should do?"
"I see, Fatty Cheng is both civil and military. Although he is fatter, he is very graceful. If you go to participate, there will be great hope. Why bother to belittle yourself and look down on yourself?" Lu Li's eyes showed the expression of his hometown and patted the fat man on the shoulder.
"Hehe, Brother Lelai, you have a vision, you can see my fat look. I originally thought I still had some small hopes. Who knows that Jun Ruochen and Yin Feng are obviously legitimate sons who inherited the title, but they also want to participate in the Wang family's bride recruitment conference. Tell me, what hope do I have?"
Cheng Changmu sighed and wore a fat face.
"So you came to find me, are you trying to give me an idea for you?" Lu Le tilted his head and looked at Fatty Cheng.
Cheng Changmu looked at the road with a full yi and nodded repeatedly.
"Um!" Lu Lili touched his chin, thinking, and his expression became a little moved: "Since there are many benefits to marrying this nine-year-old daughter of the Wang family, I decided to try my luck, so I can't help you."
Cheng Changmu looked at the road with incredible eyes for a long time, shook his head, and left with regret on his face.
"Haha, hahaha!" Lu Leye burst out laughing, but he didn't know what he said, and was secretly listened to by Ping'er, a little maid who was about to come to add tea.
As the wind spread more and more, more and more people signed up for the bride recruitment conference. Liu Jiu, who had always looked calm, couldn't sit still. On a clear day, he came to Lu's house, rushed directly into Lu's study room, and started to discuss it secretly.
"I didn't expect that Qin Ruochen, the heir of the Qin Marquis Mansion, and Yin Feng, the heir of the Yin Marquis Mansion, also signed up for this bride recruitment conference. In addition, there are many talented people who have passed the imperial examination in the spring, who are not afraid of losing their reputation and come to participate. The road is over, are you sure!"
69 walked around the study, frowned, and looked at the road with beautiful eyes fixedly.
"I'm not a god, so I can't guarantee that I can win. However, with you, the inner supporter, you still have some advantages."
Lu Lili said slowly, not in a hurry at all.
"What I know now is to choose the best two people compared to Ming Jing, poetry, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, riding, shooting, and shooting. My father personally decided on three competitions. He didn't tell me what it was. You said, "How can I not be anxious!"
Liujiu, who has always been calm, seems very annoyed at this moment.
"Oh my god! Is your adult picking the top scorer or choosing a son-in-law? This specification is even higher than the princesses in the palace. I said, why are you anxious? The chosen champion is worthy of you Wang Liuli. Happy to marry yourself, don't bother me all day long. Hello, I, Hello, everyone, that's the reason."
Lu LeLe looked at 6 Jiu with a smile, looking kind.
"Get out! I swear not to get married. You really think what I said is fake! I will remember it. If you fail, I will not be able to live a good life, so you can't think of peace."
Seeing Lu Lili's face, 6 Jiu rose up in anger, threatened him viciously, and slammed the door and left.
Lu Leye looked at 6 Jiuyuan's back with depression and covered his forehead in pain: "What, I hope you, a devil-like woman, would marry sooner. What kind of evil star did I commit in Lu Leye's fate? I was caught by this woman and couldn't resist."
In front of the Yuemen, 6 Jiu was stopped by Tang Xiaoqi who had been waiting for a long time. She saw a very fake smile on her face: "Young Master Jiu, who is more powerful than a man, is finally going to get married. Tang Xiaoqi is here, congratulations to you first."
691 was angry and waved his hand to let Wang Shiyi, who was following him leave, and looked at Tang Xiaoqi with a smile: "You have been married for less than a month first, you have no media, and you are not the eighth to marry in a sedan chair. What's there to show off?"
Tang Xiaoqi's face showed a hint of awkwardness, but he was not showing any weakness: "My husband loves me and cherishes me. He has long said that he doesn't care about his identity and will not marry a real wife. It doesn't matter whether I am a formal matchmaker or not."
"Is that right? He just now in your husband's study, he swears that I will attend the Wang family's bride conference this time, and I will marry me. At that time, I will serve tea and water to my wife, so you must be respectful and diligent."
6 Jiu smiled coldly and looked down at Tang Xiaoqi from a high place.
Tang Xiaoqi had already received Ping'er's report, but she always didn't believe that Lu Le would be so lucky. Seeing that 6 Jiu was so sure, she couldn't help but feel a little shaken, and stared at 6 Jiu with a pale face.
"I don't believe my husband would do this. It's probably because you, a cunning vixen, have any other ideas."
"You said I am a vixen?" 6 Jiuyu pointed at Qiong's nose and looked at Tang Xiao with disdain: "Do I, 6 Jiu, need to confuse men with my beauty? You don't even look at it. As soon as the news of my Wang family's marriage was released, many young handsome men flocked to me."
"Since there are so many young handsome men, why are you still coming to find my husband?" Tang Xiaoqi looked at 69 angrily.
"Because your young lady Lu said I'm shameless and rob your man, I'll rob you of it." 6 Jiu raised his head proudly.
"My husband, how could you snatch me away just by saying you're going to snatch me?" Tang Xiaoqi stared at 69 with confidence with a look of confidence.
"I will definitely get what I want," said 69 with a firm look on his face.
"I will never let you succeed." Tang Xiaoqi's face was covered in frost, but she was very confident.
"Tang Xiaoqi, you are really lucky. There is such a man who is trying hard to block the wind and rain for you, but he never says the first half in front of you. For you, he missed the spring exam competition for the advancement of the official career, and for you, he almost lost his life twice. But he always showed only a smile in front of you. And the depression and pain under his smile, did you, Tang Xiaoqi, know a little bit?
Apart from acting coquettishly and being jealous in front of him, what did you, Tang Xiaoqi, have you done for him? Yelai knew that you would not touch his scars, but just wanted to make him relax. But Tang Xiaoqi, because he was too doting on you, has become complacent for his reputation as afraid of his wife."
69 Bili was a bit of a bar, and Tang Xiaoqi stepped back repeatedly.
"I, I don't! This time, except for the far-distance gate, I don't want him to travel with your caravan for this house. I tried hard to persuade him, but he just didn't listen. How could he know that he would encounter so many dangers and so many things."
Tang Xiaoqi was so aggrieved that he was about to cry.
"You don't know him too much for so long. Do you think that a person who is so proud of him will give up the Spring Examination Competition and fight desperately with those fierce horse bandits for a mere house?"
