Family Has a Concubine

Chapter 317 Competition (Part 1)

Ye Tangcai lay listlessly on the window sill, staring out at the courtyard in a daze.

Qiuju and Huiran were sweeping the floor in the courtyard, seeing Ye Tangcai's listless appearance, they were very worried.

Qiuju's eye circles were red: "It's clear that we won the battle, and we hope to return victoriously, so why did we go to that place where we never returned? Look at the girl, she's all listless."

"What's the use of talking about it now?" Hui Ran glared at her and sighed slightly, "Stop talking, let's do our own thing!"

The two had no choice but to clean up.

Qi Min sat under the banana tree making shoe soles, looked at Ye Tangcai, but couldn't comfort her.

Because she knew that no matter how comforting she was, Ye Tangcai would be worried and missed. For this kind of thing, to say such nonsense, but to make Ye Tangcai smile to deal with other people's kindness, and to pretend to be strong for others to see, this is too hard for her.

On Chu Congke's side, the mother and son were nestled in the room, almost laughing like crazy.

Yixiangyuan is in full swing to get engaged to Chu Miaoshu.

Qin Shi has already asked Lu Zhi to invite Wu Matchmaker, and Qin Shi is sitting anxiously on the couch.

"I heard that in the southern barbarian land, none of the generals who went in never came back alive." Jiang Xinxue's eyes flashed mockingly. "I don't know if the Xu family is still willing."

Qin's face was even more ugly, she should have figured it out a long time ago, Chu Yunpan is just a bitch who loves to kill and hurts the family.

"Ma'am, Wu Matchmaker is here." A servant girl's voice sounded from outside.

After a while, a black matchmaker with a big red flower on her head and wearing a dark green bijia came in, and gave a blessing with a smile: "Oh, Mrs. Chu."

"Sit." Qin said.

Wu Matchmaker smiled and sat down, without beating around the bush: "Have you thought about the last marriage?"

"Yes." The Qin family chuckled. Judging by the Wu matchmaker's tone, the Xu family should not be disgusted, otherwise they would have opened their mouths and refused with a sigh.

Sure enough, Wu Matchmaker smiled and said: "Now General Chu has driven Xilu away, looking at the scenery, but we people, walking among the nobles, have heard some rumors." She lowered her voice: "Now General Chu Going to Nanban... that place, tsk tsk... even if a few elephants go in, there will only be bones left when they come out."

She knew that the Qin family was the aunt and Chu Yunpan was the concubine, so she wasn't afraid to say that Chu Yunpan never came back.

Sure enough, Qin's face changed when he heard it.

"I heard that there are still two young generals left in the Feng family..." Wu Matchmaker clicked her tongue twice, "When I come back, I don't know who will get the credit for it, maybe I will step on the Chu family a few times."

Qin shi hehe twice, this situation still needs to be said by the matchmaker! If she wasn't afraid of such an outcome, why would she want the Xu family? Only said: "Marriage..."

Wu Matchmaker said: "Ms. Chu is very lucky. The Xu family doesn't dislike Miss Da Chu at all. She wants to marry her sincerely and wholeheartedly."

"This..." Qin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Although Mr. Xu is a fourth-rank official, Mr. Xu is the first-class one. He said that since he has decided to marry Miss Chu, he is willing to marry Miss Chu no matter what the future of the Chu family will be." Wu Matchmaker sighed, "With such a heart Where can I find a good family? When we girls get married, we don’t just choose family background, character is the most important thing, isn’t it?”

Qin's heart was a little moved when she heard it: "Yes."

"Madam, did you agree?" Wu Matchmaker said.

"Yes, let's meet sometime, let's meet." Qin said anxiously. In her eyes, the current Xu family is simply a favorite.

After several people discussed it properly, Wu Matchmaker left.

After leaving the Yixiang Courtyard, Wu Matchmaker let out a yell: "This Mrs. Chu is simply a snobbery, and only the Xu family is blind. No wonder Miss Gu doesn't take their jobs."

It was Gu Matchmaker.

Mrs. Qin has been scolding Matchmaker Gu for being high and depressing, but it is not the case. Matchmaker Gu thinks that Chu Miaoshu is of poor character, so she doesn't know who to introduce her to. The guy who introduced her well was afraid of cheating others and smashing her signboard.

The little girl who was following Wu Matchmaker said, "Then why does the aunt take care of them?"

"If you have money, don't you make money?" Wu Matchmaker laughed nonchalantly, "It was the Xu family who fell in love with me, and I just came to the door on their behalf. But this Xu family is really good, and it is the blessing of Miss Chu to be able to marry into it." .”

Wu Matchmaker left Chu's house and went to Xu's house to answer.

The next day, Mrs. Xu came to the door with Mr. Xu.

Now is not the time to be able to choose the family status, Qin saw that Mr. Xu was about 18 or 19 years old, handsome and handsome, and not bad, so he nodded in agreement.

So the two families exchanged Geng Tie, and Chu Miaoshu's marriage was thus settled.

Qiuju got the news, went back to Qiongmingxuan, and talked with Huiran in detail: "The eldest girl is engaged in this way, and the appointment is at the Guoziji Restaurant. In the past, her eyes were higher than the top, and even some princes of the Hou family I can't even look at it, I have to marry the county king! Now..."

"It's because I thought that the third master would die there, so I hurriedly booked her. I'm afraid that if it's true...even the Xu family won't be able to marry." Hui Ran said coldly. "Okay, this kind of thing, don't bring it back and talk about it, it didn't make the girl unhappy."

"Yeah." Qiuju nodded.

That Nanman is weird, its military strength is not strong, but its secret arts are very terrifying, no matter how talented it is to lead troops, it can be dealt with with high martial arts skills. It is said that Daqi sent troops to the Nanman several times, and as a result, as many generals were brought into the Nanman, as many were folded inside, and all of them died without a whole body.

That Nanman seemed to do it on purpose, every time a general entered the Nanman, the corpses would be dragged out by wild beasts, all of which were gnawed into thousands of holes by insects, it was terribly terrifying.

Regarding the matter of Chu Yunpan, everyone in the court is making countermeasures.

The most heated discussion was undoubtedly in the Prince's Mansion——

In the study, the prince was sitting behind the Nanmu case, while Song Xiao, Qian Zhixin and Yao Yangcheng were standing in front of him.

"Now that Chu Yun has climbed into the Nanman, I'm afraid he will also end up dead without a whole body." Yao Yangcheng said.

"That's not necessarily the case. This General Chu is really amazing." Song Xiao said, "You are young, but you are both wise and courageous. The last time you took the initiative to invite Ying, it was not a reckless move. I am afraid that it has been planned long ago. He is also a bastard, and he has been dormant all these years, otherwise he would not have quietly won the first prize, and then went to war. Therefore, he will not do stupid things, if he does not have confidence, he will not enter the Southern Man."

Qian Zhixin frowned deeply: "So, he can come back alive?"

Thinking about it, Qian Zhixin and Yao Yangcheng's faces darkened.

The last time Chu Yunpan went out to fight, they stopped him most fiercely, and they also said that they would only give 50,000 soldiers and horses. At that time, Chu Yunpan grabbed his collar and threw him out.

When they come back this time, they will surely have a bright future and become a master, and then they don't know how to take revenge on them.

This is what Qian Zhixin and Yao Yangcheng are unwilling to see.

"Your Highness, this person is so violent, I'm afraid it won't be easy to subdue." Yao Yangcheng said, this meant that Chu Yunpan would not be allowed to come back alive.

"That's not certain." Song Xiao frowned, "Besides, our Da Qi is short of generals now. With him, Da Qi can be stable."

"Young Master Song really values ​​him too much." Qian Zhixin sneered, "Now that Xilu's most ferocious general with the golden sword has been beheaded, Yeluer and several other generals have all died in battle, Xilu has long been a tiger whose limbs have been chopped off. In the current situation, even if Chu Yunpan is not around, at least there are old General Zheng and King Kang. Xilu is unwilling, and there is no one to lead the army, so they can only negotiate a peace, and the two countries will recuperate together. Therefore, now that Chu Yunpan is dead, It also poses no threat to the rise and fall of Daqi."

"That's right." Yao Yangcheng nodded, "Then Chu Yunpan doesn't seem to be subdued. Now that the two young generals of the Feng family are still alive, it's better to let the two young generals of the Feng family take the credit and say that they drove Xilu away. Anyway, the Feng family Has always been His Majesty's man."

As Yao Yangcheng spoke, he felt awkward.

Yao Yangcheng is the father of the crown prince and the prince's serious father-in-law. And the prince has Feng side concubine. Over the years, because of the power of the Feng family, he was always afraid that the crown prince would let side concubine Feng give birth to a son, and finally kick the crown princess down.

Therefore, Yao Yangcheng has always competed with the Feng family, and has always wished that the Feng family would die.

But now, Yao Yangcheng is even more afraid of Chu Yunpan, and even if the Feng family wins, they are just paper tigers. Because the two young generals of the Feng family did not have the ability to defend the city.

"However, those two young generals of the Feng family obviously don't have the ability to guard Yingcheng." Song Xiao said coldly.

"Where is Mr. Zheng going now? Let Mr. Zheng stay there, and take advantage of this opportunity to let the children of the Zheng family work hard." Yao Yangcheng said, "It is also a family of generals. The Chu family has been useless for so many years. Can there be another Chu Yunpan, the Zheng family, is there really no one? Or are the talented people in the family being suppressed?"

Rather than Chu Yunpan, it is better to be the queen's natal family.

"Your Highness?" Song Xiao frowned, looking at the prince deeply.

In his opinion, Chu Yunpan is capable, a general talented from heaven. In Song Xiao's view, Chu Yunpan will definitely be able to come out of Nanman alive. Just bring Chu Yunpan over at that time.

But now, it is obvious that Qian Zhixin and others think so, but they don't want Chu Yunpan to come back alive, but try to kill him. Then let the two useless young generals of the Feng family take credit, then develop the Zheng family, and take the military power of Yingcheng into the hands of the Zheng family.

Song Xiao thought, why should it be so thankless! Why do you have to be afraid of Chu Yunpan! It was just a personal grievance between Yao Yangcheng, Qian Zhixin and Chu Yunpan.

Song Xiao hoped that the prince would wake up and stop doing such thankless things.

The crown prince sat behind the nanmu case, his elegant face was calm, and his sword eyebrows were deeply frowned.

Tapping his fingers on the table, he was thinking.

The prince remembered the scene where Chu Yunpan took the initiative to invite Ying. The young man looks graceful and elegant, but his righteousness is awe-inspiring, with a fierce and arrogant temperament.

It was only then that he realized that this was Ye Tangcai's bastard son-in-law!

I used to think that I should be so timid and timid, how could I have imagined that he would be a handsome young man who was not inferior to King Liang. And the high school champion, talented, and such a patriotic heart.

At that time, he still had some admiration for Chu Yunpan's initiative to sacrifice.

But his admiration was based on the premise that Chu Yunpan would sacrifice himself. How could he have thought that he would actually take back Yingcheng and come back...

In his opinion, the general should be a rough and old man like Xu Dashi, or a middle-aged Confucian general like Kang Wang, how can such a young man...

Such an incomparably handsome, young, and stunningly talented person... Such a light seems to cover up the sun.

Even he, the crown prince, seemed to be overshadowed in front of such a person.

What do you think, the prince felt very uncomfortable.

"Your Highness." Song Xiao frowned.

"Yao Shangshu and Qian Shangshu are right." The prince said plainly.

Song Xiao was startled, and frowned deeply, and then he understood that the crown prince couldn't tolerate Chu Yunpan! He lowered his head and said no more.

"Your Highness is wise." Qian Zhi said, "The Chu family has never participated in the struggle between the princes. If the military power really falls to the Chu family, we will not be able to win over. Although the emperor has always preferred His Highness, But what should be held in the hand must be held in the hand to be safe."

"That's right." Hearing these words, the prince felt more and more that his decision was right, and it was all for the sake of the overall situation. "Later, I will enter the palace to discuss with the queen mother, and let the Zheng family select talented people. I don't believe it, the Zheng family really has no one left."

Several people discussed for a while, and then broke up.

The prince immediately went into the palace to discuss with Empress Zheng the issue of victory and military power.

Empress Zheng naturally thought that the Zheng family would hold great power and become more and more prosperous. Hearing the thoughts of the crown prince, Yao Yangcheng and others, she immediately nodded in agreement.
