"The Governor! The Governor!"
There were constant shouts heading towards the location of Grand Governor Du Antong.
Hearing this, Governor Du Antong looked sad and uneasy at first. It was not until the chief official rushed into the room with a happy face that Governor Du Antong's worried face turned into joy.
"Grand Governor, I have good news for you. We won this battle! We won!"
Hearing this news, Governor Du Antong smiled so happily that his jagged teeth were exposed.
"Okay, okay! I really hope that after this war, Qi State will be more stable for a few more years." Governor Du Antong said hopefully.
"Yeah." Chang Shi was happy together.
Of course, Mo Chao was happy, but Qi Guo was not happy.
At this moment, no one among the civil and military officials in the Qi State's court dared to speak.
The Minister of the Ministry of War was so frightened that his face turned pale, his body kept shaking, and his heart was beating very fast.
"This battle failed? Huh?"
The monarch of Qi State's stern words of questioning scared all the civil and military officials and no one dared to answer.
It's like a stern father scolding a timid child who made a mistake.
"Minister of the Ministry of War, come out."
Hearing the emperor's words, the Minister of War's legs and feet shook even more.
"Tell me, how did almost one million people in our army die on the scene under your command? How did those cities that had already been conquered return to their hands?"
The Minister of War was like a child who had done something wrong and did not dare to answer the emperor's words.
Seeing that the Minister of War did not say anything, the monarch of Qi State impatiently shouted: "Here comes someone!"
"exist!"
"Cut off the head of the Minister of War." In the middle of the sentence, the monarch of Qi Kingdom immediately changed his words: "That's all, this is too pleasant. Just cut the body into pieces, then take off his head and hang it on the south city gate. , take it off after two days and feed it to the dog.”
"yes!"
After hearing this, the Minister of War turned pale with fright and urinated in fear.
Seeing this scene, no official dared to laugh, and no official dared to say a word.
…
"Young Master! Mrs. Fan is here."
As soon as he heard the news that his mother was summoned by his servants, the eldest young master Su Runchen, who was staying in the bedroom, couldn't cheer up at all.
Without Miss Liu and his servant Xia Shan, the eldest young master Su Runchen seems to feel that there is nothing in this world that he is interested in.
At this time, Mrs. Fan came over and saw her son Su Runchen lying in the pile of books.
"Son." Mrs. Fan called the eldest young master Su Runchen with a happy face.
Listening to this gentle shouting, the eldest young master Su Runchen knew that something bad was definitely up to him.
"Why are you here again?" The eldest young master Su Runchen glanced at his mother with an impatient face and then lay down among the books.
Listening to her son's words, Mrs. Fan didn't see any anger, but still looked happy: "What do you mean it's coming again?"
After saying that, he hurriedly took out a booklet that he had carefully compiled over the past few days and placed it in front of the eldest young master Su Runchen.
"Son, look. This is the girl that my mother has spent several days thinking about and specially selected for you from this capital. She is guaranteed to suit your liking." Mrs. Fan looked at the eldest young master Su Runchen with an excited and joyful face.
I saw Su Runchen still lying in the pile of books, not even looking at her, saying: "Mom, these girls can't do it."
"Eh? What you said is that my mother spent many days of effort to find these specially for you. They are all gentle, virtuous, and extraordinary-looking young women. Take a look."
Seeing her son Su Runchen's stubborn temper, but still not looking, Mrs. Fan instantly acted like a coquettish little lover, pushing Su Runchen while shouting: "Look, look."
Listening to these coquettish words, the eldest young master Su Runchen felt a little numb. He hurriedly raised his head and quickly took the booklet, pretending to look at it seriously.
"That's right, look at it. All the girls here are rare women in the capital. They look very rare. You will like them after seeing them." Mrs. Fan praised.
"You can't tell, this is no different from last time." The eldest young master, Su Runchen, lied.
"Eh? Why is there no difference? My mother spent half a month collecting these. You just say there is no difference without even looking at them." Mrs. Fan pouted.
"I saw it, I really saw it, there is no difference." The eldest young master Su Runchen still lied.
"There is a difference, but why is there no difference?" As she said this, Mrs. Fan couldn't help but point to the booklet: "Look, this Xia Siqing is proficient in everything, including embroidery, playing the piano, and painting. , yes... yes" Mrs. Fan couldn't say anything at once.
"Hey, in short, you can do everything. If you marry her to be your first wife, you can rest assured that she will take care of your family in the future."
After saying that, Mrs. Fan looked at her son Su Runchen with a hopeful face.
"There's no portrait, so it's useless to talk so much." Su Runchen said as an excuse.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Fan really put in a lot of effort this time.
"I knew you would say that." Mrs. Fan smiled, took a portrait of Xia Siqing from the hand of the maid on the side, and unfolded it in front of the eldest young master Su Runchen.
"It looks good, but..."
"But what?" Mrs. Fan looked questioning.
"But I'm afraid this character is not good. What's the use of being scolded all over the Su family if you get married and scolded all over the Su family for being evil-minded?"
Listening to his son's words, it seems that there is some truth. However, Mrs. Fan could still see that Runchen was deliberately looking for excuses.
Then, he took another portrait from the hands of the slave on the side and unfolded it in front of Su Runchen: "Look, this is Xu Muyun, the daughter of Xu's eldest daughter. She is not married yet, and her appearance is also extraordinary. Her father is an official in the court, and She is his father's beloved daughter, no one else can touch her. Take a look."
"No, she is so delicate. If I hit her one day, she might run back to her parents' house and cry."
Listening to Run Chen's words, Mrs. Fan was really anxious now. She quickly put down the portrait in her hand and looked at Run Chen angrily.
"Say you! You don't want this, you don't want that! What do you want? There is no girl in the world who suits your liking?"
"Miss Liu agrees with me."
Hearing Runchen mention Miss Liu again, Mrs. Fan, as the biological mother, was very angry. If there was such a family law, she might be like Mr. Su and waved at Runchen.
"After such a long time, you still remember Miss Liu all day long! Mom told you today that no matter what, you have to forget her. She is just a person who is greedy for wealth and wealth."
"She's not!" Su Runchen was a little anxious.
"She is!" Mrs. Fan also became anxious.
After saying that, Mrs. Fan continued: "Have you forgotten how she escaped from the Su Mansion and how she stole the silver? What's so good about such a woman?"
Seeing her son's stubborn temper, Mrs. Fan picked up the portraits and brochures of the two girls on the table with both hands. She glanced at Runchen and said, "When your father comes back, mother will ask your father to make the decision. These two girls have Why is it bad? Mom has already asked about her, but she is a rare girl." After saying that, Mrs. Fan walked out with the maid next to her.
After seeing his mother leave, the eldest young master Su Runchen sat down and buried his head in the pile of books. He was so angry that he clutched the books with both hands so hard that the paper was scratched.
…
"master."
At Mrs. Fan's words, Su Runchen, who was just eating, hurriedly wanted to put down the bowls and chopsticks and go back to the bedroom.
Just as he was about to put down his bowls and chopsticks, Master Su Yunqi saw through it and said, "Why are you eating so quickly? Our Su family has not limited your time limit for food."
After Runchen finished speaking, Mr. Su Yunqi just looked at Madam Fan who was standing aside.
"What's the matter?"
"Master, today I have selected several portraits of women to show to Runchen. Runchen is still thinking about Miss Liu all day long. You make the decision. These two girls are great, one is Xia Siqing, the other The name is Xu Muyun, and all these horoscopes match." Mrs. Fan said with a smile.
After hearing this, the master became a little interested and took a look at the portrait.
After listening to the master's words, Mrs. Fan hurriedly asked the maid aside to open the portraits of the two women.
After seeing Mr. Su, he felt a little moved in his heart, but he was also of an average age, so it was inappropriate or inappropriate.
"I see, the girl on the left is pretty good." Mr. Su said.
"This is Miss Xia Siqing. She knows a lot. She is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is a rare daughter-in-law." Mrs. Fan praised.
After such a compliment, Mr. Su Yunqi didn't think much about it and said: "I think this one is very good and looks good, so I will make you your first wife."
"My master has good eyesight." Mrs. Fan praised.
Listening to his father's words, Su Runchen was still a little reluctant: "Dad!"
"That's it, don't say any more. She is really wronged by marrying you."
As soon as the master said this, the two ladies on the side smiled slightly.
