Chapter 254 The Emperor Grants Marriage
Wang Yue didn't even have time to deal with the injury on his arm, so he hurried back to the vegetable field and found that Aunt Qiao was no longer in the vegetable field. He hurried back to Qiao's courtyard to check and found Aunt Qiao busy in the kitchen, and he was relieved.
Looking at the way Aunt Qiao was concentrating on cooking, one could tell that Aunt Qiao didn't know what was going on at this moment. Wang Yue didn't bother her and quickly treated his wounds.
Not long after, the two men, Big Tiger and Two Tigers, carried their purchases and came back with Father Qiao.
After Dahu entered the yard, he smelled a faint smell of blood. He didn't have time to deal with the things in his hands, so he quickly looked for Wang Yue and saw the wound on Wang Yue's arm at a glance.
When Dahu saw that Wang Yue was injured, he knew that Young Master had predicted it correctly this time. He quickly approached Wang Yue and asked solemnly, "Young Master, what happened?"
Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the big tiger and the two tigers coming back. He was really worried that the ruthless Xiao Yuanshan would come back again.
At this moment, after listening to Dahu's concerned inquiry, Wang Yue said quickly, "You two, pay attention to your surroundings and be careful of being attacked. I want to use my energy and adjust my breathing."
Dahu didn't say much when he saw this, and arranged for the two tigers to guard outside the courtyard, while Dahu flew up and stood on the roof, keeping a careful watch.
Qiao Sankui was attracted by the movements of Big Tiger and Two Tigers, and also saw the injury on Wang Yue's arm, which made his heart lift. He looked at the sky, a little worried about Qiao Feng who was out.
Wang Yue's breath adjustment lasted for a long time. He didn't finish sorting out his inner breath until the moon was above the willow branches.
The big tiger and the two tigers also stood guard outside the door, not daring to relax for a moment. Even the second elder of the Qiao family looked at the courtyard door nervously.
Wang Yue opened his eyes and found that Qiao Feng, Duan Yu, and Zhu had not returned yet. This made him a little surprised. Could it be that Xiao Yuanshan went to Shaolin again? However, just after Xiao Yuanshan started fighting with Wang Yue, a lot of his skills were absorbed. Can he recover so quickly?
Thinking about the possible problems, Wang Yue hesitated whether to go to the Shaolin Temple and look for Qiao Feng and the others.
At this time, Dahu saw that Wang Yue had adjusted his breath and said quickly, "Sir, the Second Master just sent a message, asking you to go to Caizhou immediately. We have important matters to discuss. It is extremely urgent. "
Wang Yue glanced at Dahu and saw Dahu's serious expression. He knew that the news was sent by a reliable person and Dahu had verified the authenticity.
This made Wang Yue a little confused. His uncle Wang Anli was working as a magistrate in Caizhou and usually would not contact him. How could he suddenly summon him? Could it be that five thousand war horses caused some trouble?
The second elder of the Qiao family had been a little confused when someone came to this remote place on horseback. Now after hearing what Dahu said about the situation, they were also a little hesitant.
After a while, Qiao Sankui was the first to speak, "Otherwise, my nephew will arrange to go up the mountain to inform Feng'er. We are on our way. The carriage is going slowly. Maybe Feng'er and the other three will catch up with us on the way."
Wang Yue thought for a while and felt that there were so many Shaolin masters. If something really happened, having the two elders of the Qiao family here would be a burden, so he nodded in agreement.
Wang Yue called two guards who were helping with the move and said in a serious tone, "You two went up the mountain together to deliver a message to Brother Qiao and the other three. However, be alert on the way. If you encounter any problems, come back and report them at any time."
The two guards saw Wang Yue's serious tone and quickly took the order and left.
After the two left, Wang Yue no longer hesitated, and the group immediately set off for Caizhou.
Because the two elders of the Qiao family were riding in a carriage, Wang Yue also felt that Qiao Feng and the others would catch up soon, so he left marks along the way to help those behind him know the direction.
However, when Wang Yue and his party arrived at the Caizhou Magistrate's Yamen, Qiao Feng and the others still did not arrive.
Looking at the two elders of the Qiao family who were a little embarrassed, Wang Yue was a little depressed. Xiao Yuanshan was really capable of tossing people around. Is it possible that he would have to perform the Juxianzhuang Heroes Meeting?
However, Wang Yue doesn't have time to think about those messy things now. After all, if Wang Anli can find him, something big must have happened.
When Wang Anli heard that Wang Yue had brought his sworn brother's parents, he personally received them. However, he saw that the two elders of the Qiao family were a little embarrassed, so he exchanged greetings and asked the housekeeper to take them down and settle them down.
Wang Yue waited for the second elder of the Qiao family to leave the yard, and then asked, "Uncle, why did you come to see me?"
Wang Anli looked at Wang Yue and sighed. When he met Wang Yue for the first time, Wang Anshi was still there and Wang Yue was still a carrot. Now, more than six years later, Wang Yue is already a prostitute.
Although Wang Yue took a position in the Hanlin Academy and traveled around the world, everyone in the court knew that it was because the emperor had not yet taken charge of the government. When the Queen Mother left, Wang Yue would definitely skyrocket.
Originally, Wang Anli thought that he would have to wait a few more years before he could get help from Wang Yue. Unexpectedly, Wang Yue had sent him five thousand war horses some time ago, which also solved his recent troubles.
Thinking of this, Wang Anli was greatly comforted. He looked at Wang Yue and said with a smile, "You have helped me a lot this time. News has come from the court that I will be demoted to Shuzhou as the magistrate. Your five The thousand war horses came at the right time. Now there is new news, asking me to go to Yongxing Army to know the army, and prepare to receive the five thousand war horses. If it is successful, I may move to Taiyuan Magistrate. "
Wang Yueneng was so happy to let Wang Anli hand over the war horses to the court because these five thousand horses were not easy to get.
At this moment, hearing Wang Anli mention this matter, Wang Yue asked Wang Anli hesitantly, "Now all the adults in the court are opposed to any friction with Xixia. This is not easy to accept. I don't know what good plans my uncle has."
Wang Anli nodded and said with a smile, "Every army in the northwest has its own little ninety-nine horses. It is impossible to send all these 5,000 horses to the Yongxing Army. However, there is still hope for leaving 60%. .”
Wang Yue was a little confused. He didn't think Wang Anli would suffer, so he asked curiously, "If you can only get half of it, how will you explain it to the officials?"
When Wang Anli saw Wang Yue asking such a question, he smiled and said, "The five thousand war horses that Helian Tieshu promised to give are just a big cake. Those northwest armies will naturally complain to His Majesty. However, they will kill first and report later." It’s not like we haven’t done it before, we just need to report it truthfully.”
Wang Yue has a black line. This means that crying children can eat sweets. It depends on the acting skills of those people. But this makes Wang Yue even more confused. This is none of his business, so why call him here in such a hurry? , for what?
Wang Yue couldn't understand, and he didn't want to be polite to Wang Anli, so he asked directly, "Uncle, I wonder what you have planned for calling me here?"
When Wang Anli saw that Wang Yue had not met him, he smiled and said, "Although the credit you gave me was very secretive, the man in the court is not an old fox. I guess your happy days are numbered. The main reason I came to you this time is for your marriage. You are almost at your prime and should have started a family long ago."
Wang Yue was a little confused. Was this uncle planning to directly act as a matchmaker? He had seen Mu Wanqing's appearance, so he couldn't give up.
So, Wang Yue said quickly, "I do have a confidante named Mu Wanqing, who is the living legacy of the King of Dali Zhennan."
Wang Anli glanced at Wang Yue speechlessly. This child had not returned to his hometown in Fuzhou after passing the Jinshi examination. This time he came back with a confidante, which caught him off guard.
However, the matter still needs to be made clear. Wang Anli said quickly, "The year you were selected as the most beautiful girl, the official sent someone to bring me an oral instruction, intending to marry the eldest princess of Kang to our Fuzhou Wang family."
Wang Yue looked at Wang Anli speechlessly. It had been so long before he told himself, so he quickly said, "Has the decree been made clear? You should help me push it, right?"
Wang Anli looked at Wang Yue's hopeful expression and was speechless. He joked like a naughty boy, "Does oral instruction count? You'd better take a look at this first. This is the portrait of Princess Kang."
Wang Yue glanced at it casually, wanting to see what the serious princess looked like, and had no other ideas.
Just this glance made Wang Yue confused. He blurted out what was on his mind with some excitement, "Uncle, please stop teasing me. Isn't this Mai Mai? How did she become the eldest princess of Kangguo?"
Wang Anli didn't know what was going on, but after thinking about it, he understood. He smiled and said, "Do you still know the nickname of the eldest princess of the state of Kang? You are still kidding, our eldest princess's maiden name is the character "Jin". .”
Wang Yue also came back to his senses at this moment. His heart was pounding wildly. He reluctantly calmed down his emotions. He told himself that it might just be a resemblance. Mai Mai did not play Tian Long Ba. department.
Wang Yue thought for a moment and then asked tentatively, "Then Princess Kang, it seems she hasn't reached the age of hairpin yet, right?"
Wang Anli took a deep look at Wang Yue, and there was some misunderstanding. He shook his head and said, "Don't take chances. I will report your situation to the officials right now. However, the best result is that you That Dali’s legacy can only be made smaller.”
Wang Yue thought about Mu Wanqing's temper and felt a little uneasy. It seemed that he would have to ask Duan Yu for help.
But, did girls in the Song Dynasty get married at such a young age? Now Princess Kang must not have a hairpin. How many years will it take to raise her hair?
Wang Yue hid these messy thoughts in his heart, and then continued to ask, "My uncle asked me to come here just for the marriage?"
Wang Anli nodded, sighed and said, "I received your letter, and then I learned from your entourage that you took back the Gusu Wang family's property. I originally wanted you to come and tell you this It’s inappropriate, it will affect your career. However, now it seems that this is good, and it is also a good argument for Princess Dali to be the mistress of the Wang family in Gusu."
Wang Yue looked at Wang Anli and asked with some disbelief, "You old man, are you planning to let me inherit two families at the same time? If my grandfather knew about it, he would chat with you in the evening."
Wang Anli was amused by Wang Yue. He laughed and scolded, "I'm helping you solve the mess. You kid, you really don't know a good heart. Remember, don't bring Princess Dali to her hometown in Fuzhou. However, when you come to Caizhou, or in the future It’s okay for the Yongxing Army to come to me.”
Wang Yue looked at this old and disrespectful uncle and felt a little puzzled. Wang Anli was too calm. He asked curiously, "Why do I feel that my uncle seems so sure? Is this really that easy? "
Wang Anli glanced at Wang Yue, he sighed, and then said, "It's not me who is sure, it's the people in the court who are against the reform. They are sure. You are so shocked that you are stunning. 18-year-old Tanhua, and easily brought five thousand war horses for Da Song, those old stubborn people will definitely be afraid!"
Wang Yue still didn't understand the ways of officialdom. Thinking that this was the world of martial arts, he asked curiously, "If you are afraid of my growth, why have I been out for so long and not seen an assassination or anything like that?"
Wang Anli saw that Wang Yue didn't know this, so he looked at Wang Yue with contempt and said with a sneer, "The assassination method is too low-level, and no one is willing to do it. Just like Princess Shang this time, you At most, it’s just a prince-in-law, and the sacrifice is only Shenzong’s daughter, so they don’t lose anything, so this is the best policy.”
After listening to Wang Anli's analysis, Wang Yue was a little dumbfounded. Although he didn't really want to be an official in the martial arts world, it was a bit weird after all. However, after being tricked like this and having his future career cut off, Wang Yue still felt uncomfortable. Comfortable.
However, when Wang Yue thought that because of the calculations of these old foxes, he was going to marry a princess who looked very similar to Mai Mai, he suddenly felt a little excited.
