Chapter 566 The Resentful Daughter of the Zhen Family
"A thirty-year-old general?" Zhen's mother was surprised: "This is the first time I have heard of such a young general."
"The general is the descendant of the clan, who raised troops at a young age. Because he made great achievements in supporting the emperor, he conquered the south and the north, so he was named a general." Zhen Yu explained.
"In that case, it's okay." Zhen's mother said with relief.
"Huh?" Zhen Yu was stunned.
"The general is in his prime and holds a high position, so why not marry him?" Zhen's mother said plausibly: "Mi'er is beautiful and destined to marry into a wealthy family. By the way, the general's wives and concubines Come on, Mi'er won't be wronged if you marry her."
Zhen Yu smiled bitterly and said: "The general is not greedy for women. He only has two wives and concubines in his family. The eldest wife is Princess Wannian, the daughter of the late emperor, and the second wife is Cai Wenji, the daughter of Cai Bojie."
"Oh? It turns out that there are only two concubines. It seems that Mi'er doesn't have to worry about falling out of favor if she marries one." Zhen's mother reassured, "But the general may have fewer concubines because of the princess in his family. If Mi'er marries one, he doesn't have to worry about falling out of favor." Will you be in trouble?"
"Who knows?" Zhen Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Forget it, go back and tell Mi'er personally," Zhen's mother said.
Zhen Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "In that case, just listen to mother, and the child will not disturb mother's rest." The reason why Zhen Yu came to visit her mother first was because it was difficult to speak. Since Zhen's mother is willing to take over, Zhen Yu is of course happy to do so. in this way.
After saying that, Zhen Yu stood up, and at this moment, a black shadow on the window edge moved slightly and disappeared in an instant.
When Zhen Yu opened the door and came out, the person under the window sill had long since disappeared and returned to his boudoir. I saw a slim and beautiful woman standing in the room, standing still, only showing her back.
Not being able to see the woman's face made people feel like a cat tickling them, and they couldn't help but look forward to it. And if you change the perspective, the woman's side face can be reflected in the bronze mirror on the dressing table.
What a nice view.
No matter whether it is a talented person or an ordinary person, when they see this face, they will temporarily lose the ability to describe it. They will forget all about the fish and the goose, and they will only let out an instinctive sound of admiration.
This profile face is like a peach blossom, the skin is as white as the bright moon, a pair of big eyes shine with a cold color, the bridge of the nose is high and straight, and there is almost no fault to be found.
"Alas" she sighed softly: "Brother, my little sister knows that you are in trouble, but you can't just sell her away. The general is certainly a hero, but my little sister knows nothing except his name. .”
This woman with outstanding appearance is none other than the fifth daughter of the Zhen family, Zhen Mi. Just now Zhen Mi happened to want to visit her mother, but unexpectedly her elder brother Zhen Yu happened to walk into Zhen's mother's room. Zhen Mi was curious and wanted to hear what the two were talking about.
But it didn't matter what he heard. After hearing this, he was shocked.
General? Are you going to marry a general? Although the general sounds like he has a much higher status than Yuan Xi, Zhen Mi is not someone who loves glory and wealth. The Zhen family is already considered very wealthy in Hebei, with first-class food and clothing, and hundreds of servants at home. Of all the people, even if they marry into the general's palace, how much better can their lives be?
As Zhen Mi grew up, she began to long for love, but the Zhen family only offered her marriage.
Zhen Mi sighed softly and reached out to open the two windows. The cool air filled the air, making her heart feel refreshed. A cold moon appeared in the sky.
Zhen Mi put her arms on the window sill and stared at Leng Yue, but her heart was full of thoughts.
Tonight, someone is destined to have insomnia.
At this time, Youzhou, Beiping.
Wuji County is just a small county in Jizhou, and it is not an important military stronghold. Therefore, it naturally does not have heavy military garrison. But Beiping is different. Beiping is the seat of the entire Youzhou Prefecture. The city walls are tall and thick, and every battlement on the city head is different. There was a heavily armed soldier ten steps away.
I saw a horse galloping outside Peiping City. It was Yuan Shaojun dressed up.
When the military lord on duty at the top of the city saw it, he immediately shouted: "Who is coming?"
The cavalryman reined in his reins, took out a letter from his arms, and shouted to the city: "I'm from Yecheng. My Lord has an important letter for the Second Young Master!"
The military prince nodded and gave a few instructions to the side. The thousand-jin gate fell, and the wide city gate slowly opened. The cavalry from outside the city suddenly galloped in.
The cavalry rushed in from the city gate and immediately galloped all the way through the streets of the city. They rushed to the state government office in the center of the city.
Not long after, another horse galloped out of the Yamen, but it was heading for Tian Feng's mansion.
"Second Young Master, I wonder why Tian Feng is being summoned?" Tian Feng, who had an upright appearance, walked into the meeting hall and said loudly.
Yuan Xi held a letter in his hand. When he saw Tian Feng coming in, he stood up quickly and said, "Mr. Yuan Hao is here. This is a letter from my father in Yecheng."
"Oh? Please let Tian have a look." Tian Feng's face remained as usual. He stepped forward and took the letter from Yuan Xi's hand. After observing it for a while, he frowned slightly.
"Where is the person who sent the letter?" Tian Feng asked with a frown.
Yuan Xi told the guard beside him: "Go and call the sentry horse from the post house." The guard turned and left. After a while, a soldier came in and saluted Yuan Xi and Tian Feng each.
"Second Young Master, hello Mr. Yuan Hao."
Tian Feng nodded and said impatiently: "When did you come here, and how long has it been since the Lord asked for help?"
"The villain has been here for seven days."
"Well, let's go down." Tian Feng nodded, waved his hand, and the soldier turned around and walked away, while Tian Feng fell into deep thought.
Yuan Xi wondered: "Mr. Yuan Hao, what's wrong?"
"It shouldn't be like this!" Tian Feng shook his head one after another and said: "Although Ju Gong is not here, Feng Yuantu, Guo Gongze, Shen Zhengnan and others are all in Ye City now. The Liangzhou army will not be able to attack the city. Our army should wait until Liangzhou The state army is marching south when its morale is exhausted, why would the lord order the second son to march south at this time?"
"Perhaps my father wants our Youzhou army to go south and station itself on the side of Yecheng, so that we can become at odds with Yecheng?" Yuan Xi analyzed.
Tian Feng shook his head: "Ye City is strong and can still block the front line of the Liangzhou Army. If we set up a camp, I am afraid that the Liangzhou Army will break through it in one day. Even if the lord is in a hurry and loses control of the situation, he will be able to check Zhengnan." It’s not like others can’t see it.”
Yuan Xi frowned when he heard this and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Yuan Hao, if my father hears what you said, I'm afraid he will be very unhappy."
Tian Feng has an upright temperament, as Xun Yu described, "Tian Feng is so upright that he makes mistakes." He often offends Yuan Shao by speaking too directly. What he said just now actually meant that Yuan Shao was short-sighted, and Yuan Shao would definitely not be happy to hear it.
