23. The eldest daughter of the Jin family is the same age as Tan Wei, 21 this year.The eldest girl has a dignified appearance and a good family background. The person who came to propose marriage is about to step through the threshold of the Jin family, but she still stays in her boudoir; there is no other reason, and Jin Wuyong has already said it-"My Jin family is not short of money, can't I still support her?" How about these girls?" The matchmakers came here in high spirits and returned in disappointment.The Jin family sisters just stayed at home like this.

But this year there are some exceptions.

With the great victory at the border, the emperor of South Vietnam was very happy, so he prepared to do something to rejoice with the people.If you want to amnesty the world, you don’t think it’s that far; if you want to marry a princess, the Nanyue royal family doesn’t have many other things, but the princes are the most. Emperor Chen of Nanyue has been on the throne for 20 years, but he only got a little princess who is only two years old.After thinking about it for a long time, he was about to take some of his servants into surgery: These sons of mine have been single for many years, and these ministers kept saying to share my worries, but I didn't see them wanting to marry their daughters in!

So he immediately drew up an imperial decree, to the effect that all officials and eunuchs who have reached the age of sixteen should send their portraits to the palace!I want to draft for my son!

The selection process is ignored, and a dozen or so official daughters are finally selected after one month, and the eldest and second daughters of the Jin family are all included.Since hearing the news, there has been a terrible wind and rain in the Jin Mansion.In those few days, Jin Wuyong went to court and was listless.Qin Si naturally understood what he was thinking, and deliberately angered him: "Congratulations, Jin Shangshu, the future head of the country!"

Jin Wuyong flicked his sleeves angrily: "Get out!"

Jin Wuyong was annoyed, but he also knew that it was useless to say what he said, so he could only hope that those princes would be blind and look down on his daughter.For this reason, even non-believers in him began to copy scriptures every day, and asked the housekeeper to bring a cart full of paper, pen and ink into the house, down to the concierge, down to the cook and gardener, and up to himself. Copy scriptures.

The sisters of Jin Chuyang naturally did not escape, and they all lay down on the stone table in the back garden to copy scriptures.

"Eldest sister, do you want to marry?" The second girl was not at ease, and asked while copying scriptures.

The eldest girl spat out the melon seeds in her mouth, and said calmly: "I heard that the princes in the palace are very handsome, like Zhilan Yushu..."

The second girl immediately firmed her eyes: "Marry!"

Several other people laughed together.

Half a year later, the two girls of the Jin family got married one after another.The running water mat in Jin's mansion was set up for more than half a month. Officials and merchants from Yuecheng, Jin Wuyong's students and teachers, relatives, friends, and neighbors all came.Jin Wuyong had knocked out teeth and swallowed blood, and had to pretend to be smiling because of the pain in his heart. When the lights were turned off at night, he got under the covers and cried with his wife in his arms.

On the last day of the running water banquet, only some poor people came.Of course, the quality of the banquet was not as good as before, but they were greeted with good wine and good food.

Jin Chuyang wanted to sneak out to play, but he passed a potted plant and was caught by the people at the table.

This person is obviously the sloppy Taoist who cured Jin Chuyang that year, but Jin Chuyang has no impression of him, and at this time the other party is pulling his sleeves, not knowing why.He remembered that he was dressed as a daughter, and reacted: "Indecent——"

Before he finished speaking, his mouth was covered by the Taoist.

The Taoist looked around and found that no one was paying attention, so he whispered: "Don't worry, listen to me! I'm not a bad person! I gave you the bracelet on your hand to save your life!"

Only then did Jin Chuyang let go of his vigilance.

The Taoist saw that he was no longer struggling, and his hands were relaxed, so he asked him, "Did the bracelet you had before break?"

Jin Chuyang glanced at the Taoist hesitantly, but didn't respond.

The Taoist said to himself, "Your bracelet is broken, but you are still alive... It's really strange."

Jin Chuyang pursed his lips, exposed his wrist, and showed the Taoist: "Later, someone gave me one."

Only then did the Taoist nod as if suddenly enlightened: "I see! He gave it to you..."

Jin Chuyang couldn't understand, so: Does this Taoist know Tan Wei?

The Taoist seemed to understand what he was thinking, and murmured: "This is troublesome...I'm afraid Brother Tan is in trouble..."

Jin Chuyang's heart trembled, he pulled the Taoist's sleeve, and asked, "Are you talking about Tan Wei? What's wrong with him?"

The Taoist seemed to hesitate, and finally made up his mind and said: "Since he gave you the bracelet, you should have a pretty good relationship, so let me just say it straight. Tan Wei had a fatal fate, when he rescued me at the border As soon as I died, I gave him one of my only two ivory carvings to block his robbery—the other was given to you by chance later, so I won’t mention it for now. My deduction ability is limited, and I only calculated yours recently. The ivory carving was broken, brother Tan was about to die, and he didn't know what the situation was, so he came to Yuecheng... But I didn't expect that your ivory carving was broken, and he gave you his own. Hey!"

Jin Chuyang was ignorant.He stood there in a daze for a while, then came back to his senses and found that the sloppy Taoist had long since disappeared.

24. The sloppy Taoist's words were like a stone thrown into a lake, causing ripples in Jin Chuyang's heart.It's just that he can't get in touch with Tan Wei, and he doesn't know how the other party is doing at the border.And the sloppy Taoist came and went without a trace, which made the credibility of his words a bit vague.Jin Chuyang suddenly didn't know what to do—after all, he was only thirteen, and he grew up under the wings of his family, so he rarely encountered such a situation where he needed to think alone.After thinking about it for a long time, he felt that neither his family nor Tan's family could be told about this matter.As for Tan Wei, he had to investigate the situation and see if he could send him a letter explaining the reason.

25. Some time ago, South Vietnam was victorious, while Beilian Kingdom was defeated. Although they were only behind the scenes, the defeat of the subordinate countries was really not happy for the monarch of Beilian Kingdom.Therefore, the long-planned plan to attack South Vietnam was also placed on the table of the Northern Lian Monarch.

Of course, South Vietnam also discovered that the enemy's offensive was different from the previous ones.In the past, they were just a small group of troops, occasionally harassing the people on the South Vietnamese border, or setting fire to the edge of the camp when the South Vietnamese army was unprepared, and never really fought against the South Vietnamese; Big move.

Tan Wei and several lieutenants discussed the battle plan in General Dewey's camp.Suddenly someone reported outside the camp that there was a sloppy Taoist shouting for Captain Qin outside.Several people were discussing important matters, and Tan Wei was not very happy when they were interrupted.Thinking again, I don't know any Taoist, so I asked the messenger to drive that Taoist away.

Speaking of the sloppy Taoist, he is now at the edge of the camp, waiting for Tan Wei to meet him.The messenger hadn't returned for a long time, so he took this opportunity to sit down and deduce again, but this time he found that Tan Wei's fortune was prosperous, and there was no culprit.He stroked his beard, not knowing why: "It shouldn't be...

The Taoist made calculations several times and came to the same conclusion: Tan Wei is doing well recently.Thinking about it this way, his own task is considered complete, and he didn't feel annoyed after being blasted away. He just picked up his luggage, walked to a nearby place where no one was around, and used a magic spell to shrink the ground to an inch, and returned to his residence—— The intuitive deduction result is different from the previous one because it has something to do with the ivory carving, so I have to find out what it is about.

Besides, on Jin Chuyang's side, he was always worried, for fear that the Taoist's words would become a prophecy - if Tan Wei died because the ivory pieces were not by his side, then he would be guilty of a serious crime.He has also inquired about the way the Tan family sent letters to the border these days - that day when the Tan family sent a letter, he followed the messenger to the post house.Hearing that the man told the posthouse that he was sent to the border, Jin Chuyang immediately went home and wrote a letter, then changed into a maid's attire, and smeared his face - he is now thirteen, a "great lady" ", sending a letter to the military camp is easy to gossip, so I simply changed into a maid and said it was sent to my brother.As for the envelope, in order to avoid misunderstanding, he wrote "Brother Tan personally".

Jin Chuyang felt uneasy on the way home, and comforted himself again: "Tan" is so rare, and the letter was sent from Yuecheng, so it should be delivered.

It's a coincidence that until Jin Chuyang's letter was brought, the last letter from the Tan family was still in the post house; and just after Jin Chuyang left, the messenger who sent the letter came, and the two letters were so naturally received. together.

A few days later, Tan Wei received two letters.After reading the first letter, he saw the address on the second letter, and was taken aback: Who sent this from?

Now that the letter was in his hands, Tan Wei simply opened it.After reading two lines, I realized that the letter was sent from the sixth girl of the Jin family.But if the bracelet is really like what the Taoist said to block robbery, I won't live to this age-I have been in the border for so many years, wouldn't it be fine without it?Thinking about it this way, Tan Wei was sure that the Taoist was making up nonsense.As for replying, it doesn't matter if you don't reply.

26. Jin Chuyang did not get a reply, but from the perspective of the Qin family, he speculated that Tan Wei should be fine——Tan Wei is the only son of the Qin family, and if something really happened, the Tan family must be in chaos.

I don't know whether the letter sent has been received by the other party.Jin Chuyang was not at ease, and he never ventured out to send letters like last time—if someone told someone to gossip, his parents would not be able to nag him to death.Regarding this matter, he was helpless. He could only go to the door of Qin's house to see if there was any change there.

After half a year, he finally got news from Tan Wei.

Tan Wei bravely rescued the general in a battle, but was seriously injured himself.Because of this action, he was rewarded by the Nanyue Emperor, and he was immediately promoted to a rank and became a general of Zhonglang.

The Taoist's two deductions turned out to be true.

Although Jin Chuyang didn't know the result of Taoist's second deduction, he was relieved when he heard that Tan Wei was injured: Hearing this news, Tan Wei is still alive, otherwise how could he be promoted.

Besides, Tan Wei, he was actually just shot by an arrow in the arm, but Dewey originally had the idea of ​​supporting him, so he slightly exaggerated the situation in the reported letter to give him credit.It's just that he didn't expect that Qin Weiguan would be promoted to a higher level directly by this invitation of credit.

In fact, this is also a coincidence.The last victory in Nanyue made the Emperor of Nanyue pay more attention to the battle situation at the border, and he also paid more attention to Dewey.This time, Tan Wei's actions catered to his intentions invisibly, and he gave Tan Wei some benefits, so that the soldiers could feel at ease.

Qin Si has been going out a lot these days, and she came home late.A few officials who were acquainted with him joked, asking if he was afraid of the tigress at home getting angry.Qin Si said seriously: "The situation at the border is tense now. As a courtier, we should do our part to share the worries of the king. On the other hand, you have the leisure to joke with me. I don't know how sad it is to know the situation today. ?”

Several officials were rendered speechless by Qin Si's call.

Qin Si waved his sleeves, said goodbye, then turned and left.

After returning to his sedan chair, he pulled his face down: Hey, I don't know when Madam will calm down...
