Gu Tao's eyes widened and he looked at Chen Kan with a strange look on his face. Her meaning was obvious, what the hell did you say to my father?
Before the two of them could speak, Gu Cheng stroked his beard and laughed loudly: "My nephew, I know very well what you did in the capital. You are a capable person, I..."
"Stop, uncle, my nephew and Her Highness the Princess have made an engagement, don't you know?"
Chen Kan blinked. Isn't this uncle whom he met for the first time today too enthusiastic?
You just met and you want to give your daughter to you as your wife?
Chen Kan was confused!
After all, Gu Cheng was also one of the few powerful princes in the Yongle Dynasty.
Could it be that the Marquis’s daughter is also worried about getting married?
Gu Cheng smiled bitterly and said: "Of course I know, but if Tao'er is allowed to marry into another family, with her temperament, I'm afraid she will be kicked out of her husband's family not long after they get married."
"How is it possible, dad? My daughter will never marry him."
Gu Tao immediately felt unhappy. How could a father curse his daughter like this?
Chen Kan nodded seriously.
Indeed, he and Gu Tao got along briefly on the boat.
This is a child who has been spoiled since he was a child. He has his eyes set above his head and loves to glare at people with his nostrils.
Then he can't marry.
He wants to be with a cute girl with big eyes for the rest of his life, so what's going on with Gu Tao in the middle?
He immediately said righteously and solemnly: "My nephew disagrees with what my uncle said. Sister Tao has a good heart. Although she may be a little temperamental occasionally, she still has a kind nature. She will definitely be able to marry a good man in the future."
"As for my nephew, my whole heart is attached to Her Highness the Princess, and I have no intention of marrying again. Besides, even if my nephew wants to marry again, Your Majesty will not agree to it."
Being a concubine is not easy, and one of them is not to take concubines.
Although the Ming Dynasty did not expressly stipulate that the concubine was not allowed to take concubines, everyone's default was that the concubine had already married the most noble woman in the world, so how could he still allow the concubine to take concubines?
But when Chen Kan said this, Gu Tao became unhappy again.
What's the meaning?
What words is this?
I didn’t say I wanted to marry you. What do you mean by rejecting me so quickly? Are you looking down on me?
"Humph, my daughter won't marry!"
Gu Tao snorted coldly, shook Gu Cheng's body and said dissatisfiedly: "Dad, what are you thinking? You are thinking of giving your daughter to someone as a concubine. Am I your biological child?"
"Oh my little ancestor, of course you are my father's biological child. Isn't my father afraid that you will have a hard life in the future?"
"While my father is still alive, I will choose a good family for you. When my father goes to Jiuquan in the future, I can give an explanation to your mother."
Gu Cheng's head was shaken by Gu Tao, and his old face was full of bitterness. Since ancient times, how could any younger generation be so rude to their elders?
How would you live your life if you married someone else?
Chen Kan's face twitched, and he looked at Gu Cheng and said seriously: "Uncle, I've eaten this meal and drank the wine. My nephew is still anxious to return to the capital to get married. Why don't we just say goodbye?"
Chen Kan was afraid that if he stayed any longer, Gu Cheng would forcefully give his daughter to him.
He finally saw clearly that Gu Cheng wanted to find someone to take advantage of for his daughter.
Those who were of similar status to the Gu family basically gave up the idea of getting married when they saw Gu Tao's temperament. But Gu Cheng, who was of a lower status than the Gu family, was not happy.
Gu Cheng is eyeing his own poor family.
Thirty-six strategies are still the best strategy.
Gu Cheng took Gu Tao's hand, shook his head that was a little dazed by her shaking, and said dissatisfied: "Hey, nephew, I have inquired, your wedding to Her Royal Highness is still more than a month away, don't be in a hurry. .”
"You have finally come all the way to Shu. How can I not fulfill my duty as a landlord and stay for a few more days?"
Gu Cheng enthusiastically tried to persuade him to stay, which made Chen Kan feel bad.
"Oh, my nephew drank a little too much. Uncle, please eat and drink first while my nephew goes out for convenience. I'm rude."
Chen Kan used the urine escape technique, stood up and walked unsteadily towards the outside of the tent.
He finally understood why Gu Chenghui was so enthusiastic about him.
I thought he sent people to help him because the money he gave to the general had an effect, and his feelings were to help his daughter find someone to take advantage of.
As soon as Chen Kan reached the door of the tent, two personal guards stretched out their hands to block his way.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but frown. Gu Cheng had already planned this.
However, Chen Kan is drunk now, so it is normal for him to do something rude.
So as if he didn't see the two guards, he broke through the blockade between them arrogantly, and then staggered towards the outside of the military camp.
When Gu Cheng in the tent saw this, his expression immediately calmed down.
"Master Hou..."
Gu Cheng squinted his eyes, and after a moment, he suddenly sighed and said, "That's all, you can't force it."
Knowing that Chen Kan was planning to escape in the name of Urinary Escape, he had no intention of stopping him.
He could tell that marrying his daughter to Chen Kan as a concubine was already putting the face of the Hou Mansion in the mud.
Chen Kan didn't accept it, and he couldn't really send his daughter away for free. That wouldn't be mean.
After watching Chen Kanyuan go, Gu Cheng withdrew his gaze and looked at his dissatisfied daughter standing by. The worry on his face became even more intense.
Poor parents in the world, why would he be willing to let his favorite daughter become a concubine for others? The main reason is that he is really old and doesn't know how many years of good life he has.
This girl has a restless temper.
"well!"
…
…
The men brought by Chen Kan from the capital were stationed at the edge of the camp.
Gu Cheng was entertaining Chen Kan, and naturally there were others who came to entertain the people Chen Kan brought out.
It was the red-faced man who was guarding Gu Tao'an.
Chen Kan wandered to the small camp one mile away from the main camp. Before he even got close, he heard shouts and cheers coming from the camp.
Chen Kan walked into the camp and squinted his eyes to see that two parties were wrestling.
Wrestling is Mongolian wrestling.
When the Mongols ruled the Central Plains, it was very popular for a time, especially among the wealthy families, who raised livestock and warriors, and gambling among each other became a common practice.
The two people currently wrestling on the field are Shan Baihu and Wang Long. Fang Xu is acting as the referee, and Zhang San is holding the scoreboard and flipping it.
The current rules of wrestling are very complete. You are not allowed to use underhand tricks or attack on vital points.
So the two of them were naked and couldn't do anything to each other.
Looking back, I saw that Gu Cheng was not chasing him.
After all, Xindao is a prince, and he still wants to save face.
Chen Kan felt relieved and silently joined the crowd watching the battle.
Looking around, he saw that Li Hu had also opened a gambling market. Chen Kan took out two silver coins from his arms and threw them in front of him. He said with a smile: "Two taels of silver, buy Wang Long and win."
Li Hu was overjoyed. He was just about to see which Qiu Ba was so generous when he raised his head and saw Chen Kan's smiling face.
