First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

The spies in the military camp have been caught, and those who deserve rewards will be rewarded, and those who deserve punishment will be punished. It is almost the end of the year.

His Majesty's decree is to marry off all the palace maids within the year, so this matter cannot be delayed any longer and must be resolved before the New Year. At most, there is only one and a half months left before the New Year.

So Xie Yingfeng was also very anxious about the lawsuit.

There are too many qualified soldiers in the army. If they are ranked from top to bottom according to their official ranks, those old soldiers will not be able to marry palace maids at all, which is bound to cause dissatisfaction among many people.

So Xie Yingfeng used a desperate method...

He counted all the Black Tiger Army members who met the requirements for marrying a wife and were willing to marry palace maids or concubines, and then told them that if they wanted to marry a wife they must have savings, and they must have saved at least one hundred taels of silver to be eligible for the next step. However, despite the one hundred taels of silver, 60% of the people were directly screened out.

According to Xie Yingfeng, you have been a soldier for so many years, and with the military pay, rewards for meritorious service, and dividends from the spoils, you should be able to save at least one hundred taels of silver. If you can't even save one hundred taels of silver, how are you going to support your family and raise your children in the future!

What he said made sense, so although everyone complained, they all accepted it. After all, supporting a family is not just about one person feeding the whole family. If you can't even save money, how can you expect to live in the future?

But even so, their numbers far outnumbered those of the rest.

Therefore, Xie Yingfeng set a threshold again, that is, those who had been punished for moral issues in the military camp before, those who often fought and quarreled with others, those who had a bad temper and liked to visit brothels were also screened out.

These people have bad tempers and are lustful. If they get married, they would be irresponsible towards the girls.

Once these conditions were put forward, many people were screened out. Xie Yingfeng didn't want to have to face those crying and complaining female grandmas in his future life!

This at least ensures that the couple will not fight over trivial matters...

Everyone was convinced by this condition. After all, it was about living together, not fighting...

After these two conditions, the remaining people still surpassed...

Xie Yingfeng could only use one last trick: drawing lots!

He mixed the remaining people together and drew lots, and first picked out the first seventy people. After all, in the future, when they get married and live together, they have to make the girl happy. So the number of people is a little larger, so that the palace maids can look at each other and choose...

Only when you are in love with each other can life go on.

After all these tasks were completed, the seventy shortlisted people all had numbers on their chests.

Xie Yingfeng asked the palace maids to sit together and handed them a piece of paper with their own names written on the front and they had to write their own names on the back. Then, he asked those who participated in the selection to walk in front of the palace maids one by one with their number tags. In order to avoid embarrassment, Xie Yingfeng also added a curtain in the middle. Although it was a bit blurry, it was much better than a blind marriage.

Moreover, Xie Yingfeng had a little trick, that is, let the officers and soldiers wear the same clothes and shoes, so that they would not only pick the officers but not the soldiers. As for the officers with familiar faces, they must have received a lot of votes. If two or three people chose the same person, then Xie Yingfeng would let this person vote against him and choose the one he liked from the girls who liked him!

In this way, basically everyone can be chosen in the end. If there are still some who cannot be chosen, they will choose again. After a few rounds, everyone will find each other...

This is the most fair and least resentful method that Xie Yingfeng could think of!

Xie Yingfeng felt that he was simply awesome, so he put his hands on his hips and felt proud!

He explained the rules to everyone, and everyone agreed. After all, if you look good, maybe a few people will choose you, and then you can vote against them. So the barbers in Mangcheng have been so busy these days that they can't even sit down. Even if they are sharpening their guns before the battle, won't it be shiny? Who doesn't want to look better... to have a better chance of being selected... After all, there are 70 people on their side, and no matter how much Xie Yingfeng helps, there will still be more than a dozen who won't be selected...

After learning the news of choosing a husband, Qu Wanning fell silent.

Zhao Xiuwan, who had been devastated by the letter and didn't want to talk for several days, now took action.

She put on a set of gorgeous clothes she brought from the palace. Although her jewelry was no longer complete, she still wore all the jewelry she could. Compared with the others who looked dirty and dusty, she was as dazzling as a golden phoenix.

She began to ask where Wei Ling was whenever she had the chance. If Wei Ling was willing to marry her, he could marry her even if Wei Ling was not on the list of seventy people.

No one was willing to tell her where Wei Ling was, so she had no choice but to look for Qian Feng.

In fact, Qian Feng had taken Zhao Xiuwan to find Wei Ling once before and was beaten with a military stick. So when Zhao Xiuwan came to him again this time, he not only did not refuse, but gritted his teeth and agreed.

But this time, he went to ask Wei Ling for permission to meet Zhao Xiuwan.

He knelt in front of Wei Ling and kowtowed repeatedly, "I beg the general to allow me to meet Miss Zhao."

Xie Yingfeng couldn't bear to watch it anymore, "Are you stupid?" He grabbed Qian Feng and said angrily, "Do you know what she means by coming to our general! Do you think the general will agree? Not only are you making things difficult for the general, but you are also making things difficult for yourself?" Almost the entire Black Tiger Guard knew that Qian Feng liked Zhao Xiuwan.

"You got the lucky draw!" Xie Yingfeng knocked him, "You also have the chance to marry Zhao Xiuwan. Are you stupid? Letting Zhao Xiuwan meet the general now, aren't you going to push Zhao Xiuwan to the general's side with your own hands?"

Seeing Xie Yingfeng's words becoming more and more outrageous, Wei Ling snorted in displeasure. What are you talking about? What's pushing it towards him? It seems that if you really push it, he can get it...

Xie Yingfeng also realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he paused and said, "Get up, the battle was so intense, why did you lose your mind just because of this!"

"Please, General!" Qian Feng still knelt stubbornly.

"Get up now." Wei Ling finally spoke, "I won't meet Zhao Xiuwan. If I meet her, she won't be able to bear what I say. It's better for you to tell her that His Majesty has granted me a marriage. Tell her to give up this thought!"

Xie Yingfeng curled his lips. Now he was finally willing to talk about the arranged marriage?

Qian Feng was stunned and looked at Wei Ling in disbelief.

"You don't have to disbelieve it. The imperial decree granting the marriage is in my bag." Wei Ling lowered his eyes, not wanting to look at Qian Feng. "You will see it on the day when this general gets married."
