Looking at the backs of the two people running out, Zhao Ping could only look on regretfully.

It's all my fault, but am I romantic?

It seems that I don't like to mess around with women, but I just have a affinity with women.

In fact, despite all the strange things, I still look at things with passion.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ping wished he could punch himself and hurt these little ladies.

These matters are secondary. Mother's question must be resolved.

Zhao Ping finally came back to his senses and said: "Mother, Ping'er just remembered something that was related to a major event in the Song Dynasty, so he didn't hear what his mother said. Ping'er would never dare to go against his mother's words. The reason just now was because he didn't After hearing what my mother said, please forgive me."

When the mother heard Zhao Ping's soft words, her heart suddenly softened, and her right hand unknowingly relaxed.

"Ping'er, what could be so serious and related to the great events of the Song Dynasty?" She looked at Zhao Ping and stared, unable to believe it. "If you don't make it clear, my mother will use family methods."

Yu Jie and his wife looked at each other and couldn't help frowning. Is there anything more important in the world than a lifelong event?

Yu Rushun stood up from the chair and pointed at Zhao Ping to scold him.

In his opinion, Yu Jie, a boss in Sichuan, married off his only granddaughter to Zhao Ping, and Zhao Ping should be the one to take the lead.

Zhao Ping didn't know what was good and what was good, and even found an excuse to escape.

Yu Jie saw her son's actions and looked at him hurriedly and glared at him.

Murong Qianqian saw that something was wrong and immediately pulled Yu Rushun down.

When my mother saw this, she felt even more angry.

Could it be that Zhao Ping didn't like the engagement and made this clumsy excuse.

Thinking of this, my mother's hands became heavy again unconsciously.

Zhao Ping screamed in pain: "Mother, mother, mother, it hurts, it hurts."

"Then you must tell the truth, otherwise my mother will never forgive you."

Yu Jie's family also looked at Zhao Ping, hoping that he would give a satisfactory answer.

To be honest, although Zhao Ping is only the deputy envoy of the Salt Division, he actually has the power of a overlord.

Although she didn't tell Yu Jie this, her mother knew it.

Although Yu Jie doesn't know Zhao Ping's specific situation, he has been paying attention to Zhao Ping.

Zhao Ping was able to fight against the Hu people alone in Xixian, and he was also able to return from Xixian safely, which shows that his strength is extraordinary.

Zhao Ping looked at Yu Jie's family, bowed his hands to Yu Jie, and said, "Yu Wengweng, have you paid attention to Qin Hui's affairs?"

"Of course, the Song Dynasty Zhonghua Newspaper and the Song Dynasty Li Daily have been fighting for Qin Hui's matter. The whole world knows about this matter. How could I miss it?" Yu Jie took a sip of tea and spoke in a calm tone. There was no rush, and his attitude seemed extremely calm.

As expected, he is an old man in officialdom, slippery and slippery.

From the outside, Yu Jie's attitude is not exposed, he just looks moderate.

But Zhao Ping was in a text competition with Uncle Xie Fang, and it was difficult for Yu Jie not to pay attention.

His backstage prime minister, Zheng Qingzhi, also advocated the recovery of the three capitals and made a smooth move into Luo.

He was an out-and-out militant, but unfortunately he passed away at the beginning of this year.

And now the prime minister of the imperial court is Uncle Xie Fang, who is an out-and-out peacemaker.

Although Yu Jie is a bachelor, he has passed away in the background. It is obviously impossible to say that he does not pay attention.

But since he didn't say it, Zhao Ping didn't expose it either.

Zhao Ping looked at Yu Jie and his mother, and said a shocking news in a deep voice: "Now there are rumors in the teahouse that Qizhenlou has the authentic copy of Qin Hui's letter of allegiance. Isn't this a major event related to the Song Dynasty?"

After all, my mother was not an official figure, so she was not so sensitive about this matter, so she couldn't help but look at Yu Jie.

Even though Yu Jie had always been calm and calm in the strong winds and waves he had seen, he couldn't help but put down his teacup and looked up at Zhao Ping.

"Ping'er, are you serious about this?" He stared at Zhao Ping.

Zhao Ping thought for a while and decided to explain the process of going to Qizhen Building in detail.

Yu Jie and his wife and Yu Rushun and his wife looked at each other, frowned, and then turned their attention to their mother.

Things are becoming more and more complex, more and more unexpected, and beyond the imagination of those present.

They did not expect that this matter not only involved Qizhenlou, but also a young lady.

If this little lady had nothing to do with her, it was Zhao Ping who exchanged his sword with the opponent's jade flute.

Zhao Ping didn't seem to think there was anything wrong, but his mother, Yu Jie and Yu Rushun discovered something unexpected.

The young lady on the other side not only exchanged tokens with Zhao Ping, but also agreed to three conditions.

Tricky, tricky, very tricky. Mother glanced at Zhao Ping bitterly and couldn't help frowning.

Zhao Ping never expected that his move would put his mother's face at risk.

The mother devoted herself wholeheartedly to her son's engagement, but the son secretly made a lifelong engagement with someone without telling her mother.

Zhao Ping's move not only made his mother lose face, but also made Yu Jie unable to come to the stage, making the whole Sichuan look at Yu Jie's joke.

Mother's right hand, which was originally loosened, was tightened again, and she said bitterly: "Ping'er, do you know that I have made a marriage arrangement for you?"

"What kind of marriage?" Zhao Ping asked in shock while covering his ears in pain.

The mother glanced at Yu Jie's family, and then said: "Ping'er has been blessed for a long time, and Yu Zhizhi is willing to betroth his only precious granddaughter to you."

Amid Zhao Ping's astonishment, Yu Jie nodded, stroking his beard and smiling.

"Ping'er, why don't you pay your respects to Yue Wengweng soon?" Seeing that Zhao Ping didn't move, his mother scolded him.

Zhao Ping glanced at his mother and Yu Jie, came to Yu Jie respectfully, knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, and said: "Weng Weng."

Now it is different from before. There is one less word in the title. This is a title for family members.

Yu Jie sat on the armchair with a serious expression and accepted Zhao Ping's gift.

Then he came to Yu Liu's house and performed the same ceremony of kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times. Finally, he came to Yu Rusun and performed the same ceremony.

After the ceremony, Zhao Ping sat down, Cuizhu and Huang Xiaoniu, who had returned, stood behind him.

The two wiped away their tears and looked at each other, both finding that the other's eyes were red.

Although they knew that this day would come sooner or later, when it came, the two of them still couldn't accept it.

When they heard that Zhao Ping was engaged, the two held each other and cried bitterly.

The two were originally love rivals for each other, but now they have become destitute people in the world at the same time.

The two had no choice but to comfort each other and instantly turned enemies into friends.

However, in order not to leave a bad impression on their mistress, the two of them wiped each other's tears and found a reason to explain themselves back.

My mother is a person who has been here before, so I don’t know what is going on, as long as the two of them don’t go too far.

Seeing the two people coming back, she smiled and nodded towards them.

Seeing their mother nodding, Cuizhu and Huang Xiaoniu finally felt more at ease.

But no matter what, the two of them were recognized by their mistress before the eldest wife.

What's more, both of them have shares in Zhaojiazhuang, so they don't need a big wife financially.

There is a granary in your heart, so there is no need to panic.

Yu Jie saw the expressions of Cuizhu and Huang Xiaoniu in his eyes. In his opinion, these two were Zhao Ping's maids, and they would not be able to make big waves.

Zhao Ping is so outstanding, it is most normal to have a few concubines.

He glanced at everyone, smiled and said: "We are all a family now, and Ping'er's affairs are also our family's affairs. In the future, these matters must be discussed with each other, and we can only act after obtaining consent."

Of course, Zhao Ping quickly stood up from his seat and said yes.

Now that her mother has arranged a marriage for Zhao Ping, Zhao Ping naturally has to admit it.

But there is still one thing that has not been resolved, which is Zhao Ping's private engagement.

In fact, although Zhao Ping was engaged to be married by his mother, he knew nothing about the woman.

He was very much like his mother asking these questions, but now it was difficult to speak in front of everyone.

Although it was difficult to ask himself about his fiancée, Zhao Ping did do this for Yu Jie's sake.

Although Yu Jie is a literati who can write poems, he has a weakness, that is, he is not a Jinshi, but is somewhere between a literati and a military general.

The Song Dynasty was a world of literati, but not a world of generals.

The reason why Yue Fei was easily killed by Qin Hui was because he was a military commander and not a Jinshi.

In fact, Yue Fei was both civil and military, he also served as a military envoy, and he also wrote "Man Jiang Hong", a poem about loyal service to the country. In these aspects, he is very similar to Yu Jie.

However, because of his talisman as a Jinshi, it was still difficult to escape Qin Hui's persecution.

Zhao Ping was actually indirectly helping Yu Jie by engaging in a literary lawsuit with Uncle Xie Fang of the Zhuhe faction.

Zhao Ping works wholeheartedly for Yu Jie, how could Yu Jie not know about it.

At first, Yu Jie was very worried about Zhao Ping. After all, Zhao Ping was young and not a veteran in officialdom. He did not expect that Zhao Ping would still have the upper hand.

Although Zhao Ping only vaguely had the upper hand, he lacked one key thing, which was evidence.

If Zhao Ping really finds evidence that the Letter of Allegiance has a fatal impact on Qin Hui, then the blow to the Lord Peace Sect will be unprecedented.

With evidence, it can be proved that Qin Hui's proposal for peace is fake, but surrender is real.

As long as these evidences are found, it is not difficult to understand that Qin Hui was able to kill Yue Fei who had recovered the Central Plains, proclaimed himself a vassal to the Jin Kingdom, ceded land, and gave 30% of the Song Dynasty's finances as a tribute to the Jin Kingdom.

What does it mean? It means that Qin Hui is not doing good for the Song Dynasty, but is completely weakening the strength of the Song Dynasty.

With this evidence, today's officials have to doubt the loyalty of scholars.

Therefore, relying more on generals, especially a coach like Yu Jie who is both civil and military, can be said to be of great benefit to Yu Jie.

Everything Zhao Ping did was for Yu Jie.

But this thing was so unbelievable that Yu Jie fell into deep thought.

Yu Jie walked around the coffee table a few times, took a sip of tea, and slowly put down the cup: "Ping'er, how is Liu Ang like this?"

After saying this, Yu Jie's face showed a dazzling light.

This time Zhao Ping went to Qizhenlou to look for evidence, which was the result of Liu Angshu's stabbing.

If he had bad intentions, as a Sichuan boss, it would be easy to destroy him in the officialdom.

"Ping'er feels that this person is bent on climbing the ladder and pursuing progress. In the past, he had a small grudge with Ping'er in Changyuan County, but after coming to Jintang, he became much more honest. This place is a completely unfamiliar place for him. In the officialdom, he is serious and sincere in his work. Ping'er saw that he was serious and promoted him from Jintang County Magistrate to County Magistrate." Zhao Ping answered truthfully about his relationship with Liu Ang.

Zhao Ping is still very generous, although Liu Ang once made things difficult for him.

But in the face of absolute strength, Liu Ang could only obey Zhao Ping's words.

After all, Liu Ang is also from Changyuan County, and he and Zhao Ping can be considered from the same hometown, so Zhao Ping promoted this person after his uncle rose.

Yu Jie glanced at Zhao Ping with relief, smiled and nodded: "The prime minister can hold a boat in his belly. In fact, anyone who achieves great things must be able to hold a boat in his belly."

If Yu Jie still can't see that Zhao Ping is someone who wants to do big things at this time, then he will have been in officialdom for decades in vain.

"Ping'er is taught." Zhao Ping still looked like a good baby in front of his mother, father-in-law and others.

Yu Rushun had been observing Zhao Ping and finally calmed down from his anger.

Zhao Ping is not only a natural enemy, but he also thinks about their Yu family.

At this time, he couldn't help but said: "Tell my father, Ping'er has made a personal appointment with someone for Qin Hui's letter of allegiance. What should I do about this?"

He had already seen from Cuizhu and Huang Xiaoniu that there were many beauties in pink around Zhao Ping.

As a father-in-law, he certainly hopes that Zhao Ping will only have his daughter.

But Zhao Ping is so outstanding, it is obviously impossible.

The father hasn't said anything to Zhao Ping's concubine yet, so what can he, his son, say.

If you think about it carefully, Zhao Ping is not trying to outdo the Yu family, but the Yu family may be trying to outdo the Zhao family.

Isn't it? My father once went on the Northern Expedition, but was still defeated by the barbarians.

But what about this son-in-law, who could resist the barbarians' crazy attack.

If he knew that Zhao Ping forced the Hu people to seek peace, he would be shocked.

This kind of son-in-law cannot be found even with a lantern and a torch.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask his father a question.

Hearing Yu Rushun's words, her mother, Yu Liushi and Murong Qianqian looked at each other, first at Zhao Ping, and then at Huang Xiaoniu and Cuizhu, who had red and swollen eyes behind him, and couldn't help but shake their heads, and then All eyes turned to Yu Jie.

Yu Jie drank tea and thought.

Zhao Ping felt like a thorn in his body and was a little restless.

Although he wholeheartedly thought about Song Dynasty and Yu Jie, he indirectly embarrassed his mother.

Mrs. Yu Liu looked at Zhao Ping's mother and son, smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Officials who fall into other people's traps for the sake of the Song Dynasty can only be said to be doing bad things with good intentions."

Yu Jie stood up, looked at the jade flute on Zhao Ping's waist, and walked a few steps around the table.

"Madam is right, Ping'er suddenly fell into a trap carefully woven by others, and she was calculated step by step." He thought deeply for a while and looked at Zhao Ping. "This is not a conspiracy, but an upright conspiracy. middle."

When Zhao Ping heard Yu Jie's words, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Why did he just follow the way?

"Why is it a conspiracy and not a conspiracy?" Yu Liu asked in confusion.

She thought that this person must be plotting a conspiracy, but she didn't expect that Yu Jie actually said it was a conspiracy.

Yu Jie glanced at Zhao Ping, who was a little uneasy, and sighed secretly: "This person took advantage of Ping'er's single-minded desire to obtain the loyalty letter. He only revealed a little information in the teahouse, and Ping'er couldn't wait to come to buy it."

Having said this, Yu Jie paused and glanced around.

"Father is right." Yu Rushun nodded and agreed with Yu Jie's statement.

Yu Jie glanced at Zhao Ping again and continued his analysis: "During the acquisition process, this person also knew that Ping'er liked to play the flute, and deliberately placed a jade flute that was not for sale."

Having said this, he paused again and looked at Mrs. Yu Liu.

"So Ping'er had to exchange the Hu-Slaying Sword numbered No. 1, thereby completing the de facto exchange of love tokens." At this point, Yu Liu covered her mouth, unable to believe her own judgment.

Yu Jie nodded and agreed with his wife: "Although Ping'er played many novel music, the letter of allegiance is still in the other party's hand. In the end, he had to exchange it with the other party using the music score and three conditions."

Having said this, Yu Jie paused again and looked at Yu Rushun.

Yu Rushun knew that his father was testing him, so he thought for a while, and then continued what his father said: "The other party didn't say anything during the whole process. He just sent a little maid to firmly grasp the initiative. It can be seen that the other party is still a master of strategy and has calculated every step. .”

Thinking of this, Yu Rushun suddenly broke into a cold sweat on his back.

Yu Rushun thought for a moment, and if it were him, even if he was older than Zhao Ping and had more than ten years of experience, he would still be unable to escape the other party's plot.

This was for no other reason than that the other party wanted to seize Qin Hui's letter of allegiance.

"Fortunately, Shi Fang has no ill intentions towards Ping'er for the time being. If the other party is really interested in Ping'er, I think it's better to give her the status of a common wife!" Yu Jie walked around the room and looked at the jade on Zhao Ping's waist. Di, after scanning everyone, looked at Yu Rushun and said.

Although he is the parent, Yu Rushun is Zhao Ping's future father-in-law after all, so he still needs to seek his opinion.

Yu Rushun thought for a moment and glanced at Murong Qianqian, only to see her nodding and agreeing with her father's statement.

My mother breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Zhao Ping hatefully: "You bastard, why don't you thank Yue Wengweng and my mother-in-law."

"Thank you, Weng Weng and my mother-in-law." Zhao Ping stepped forward, bowed respectfully to Yu Jie and his wife, and then thanked Yu Rushun and his wife.

This was indeed a bit embarrassing, but fortunately it was finally resolved.

Although this matter has been resolved, there is still one issue that remains unresolved.

Although Zhao Ping was engaged, he didn't even see his future wife's appearance. When he had time, he wanted to learn about his future wife's appearance from his secret mother.

"Ping'er is so anxious, how could he forget about his mother when he has a wife?" Unexpectedly, his mother replied calmly while drinking tea.

These words made Zhao Ping even more embarrassed. He was too impatient. His mother was young and beautiful, but she was still a widow for him.

But if you don't want to know the other person's appearance, you feel like a thousand ants are crawling in your heart.

Zhao Ping awkwardly grabbed his mother's arm, wiped his face with it affectionately, and then softly begged: "Mother, mother, my mother is naturally the most beautiful woman in my son's heart. How can my son have a wife?" I forgot about my mother."

"IKEA, comfortable room, knowledgeable and sensible." Under Zhao Ping's repeated assurances, the mother looked at Zhao Ping lightly, and then replied calmly.

As for the other person's appearance, my mother has always insisted not to reveal anything about him.

Zhao Ping thought for a while. All of Yu Jie's family were handsome men and beautiful women with strong genes. He expected that the future wife would be good.

Cuizhu and Huang Xiaoniu were naturally heartbroken to see that Zhao Ping had already settled down for a marriage and was about to settle down for a wife.

The two of them cried secretly several times, their eyes were often red, and they were listless and even disoriented.

Naturally, the mother understood what they were thinking, and called Cuizhu and Huang Xiaoniu into the house where she lived. After the incense stick came out, the two of them regained their spirits.

Ten days later, Zhao Ping set off with the music score with the help of his mother, preparing to replace Qin Hui's letter of allegiance.

Unexpectedly, he was pulled out of the way by someone.

To be precise, this person was very young, a little maid with pink makeup and jade, about the same age as Lan'er, appeared at the winding railing of the mansion.

When she saw Zhao Ping, she was a little nervous and stuttered.

Zhao Ping felt baffled as to why this little maid came to find him.

Although Zhao Ping didn't recognize this person, Cuizhu recognized him and couldn't help but glare at her.

When she saw Cuizhu glare at her, she suddenly puffed up her chest and stared back.

Zhao Ping looked at the two of them with big eyes and small eyes, and felt even more baffled.
