678 Chapter 77 Engagement (1)

In winter nights, except for the occasional wind noise, it is exceptionally quiet.

Oak-hee frowned when she came back from telling the triplets a story and saw that the room was still empty. It was so late that Yun Qing hadn't come back.

Just as I was thinking, I heard light footsteps. Yuxi felt something, and when she turned her head, she saw Yun Qing. Yuxi walked over and complained, "Why did you come back so late?" As he spoke, he helped Yun Qing take off the dark purple cloud pattern mink fur cloak on Yun Qing's body.

Yun Qing said, "I talked to Fang Xing about something, but I didn't expect it to be too late." Yun Qing has a habit, as long as others are in Haocheng, he will not spend the night outside, even if it is late, he will go home. This was very much in Oak Hee's heart.

Yu Xi knew that this was about next year's war, otherwise it would not have been so late: "50,000 horses, how are you going to use them?" Although he knew that Yunqing had other uses for these 50,000 horses, Yuxi had no idea. But Xi didn't know Yun Qing's plan.

Seeing Yuxi asking again, Yun Qing stopped hiding it from her: "These 50,000 horses will be transferred to Shanxi after the first month of the month."

Yuxi asked curiously, "Relocated to Shanxi? Do you want Fang Xing to attack Hebei or Shandong?"

Yun Qing said, "Shandong."

Yuxi looked at Yunqing and said, "There are 200,000 soldiers in Shandong, and the leader of the army is Yan Wushuang's confidant Lou Qingyun. This person is able to fight well in Liaodong and has made great achievements in Liaodong. This battle is not easy to fight. "Knowing that it is impossible to fight, this is not Yunqing's style.

Yun Qing snorted coldly and said, "Not only Yan Wushuang knows how to use the sound of the east to attack the west." The implication was that this time he also used the sound of the east to attack the west.

Oak-hee asked, "What's your real goal then?"

I really don't know much about this, and Yuxi didn't ask Yunqing in depth before and didn't say anything. At this moment, Yuxi asked, but Yun Qing didn't hide it any longer: "Xiayi."

Oak-hee had been looking at maps a lot lately, so he naturally knew about Xiayi. Xiayi is more than 180 miles away from Xuzhou in the east and 150 miles away from Shangqiu in Henan Province in the west. In ancient times, it was Bianjing’s teeth and lips, the gateway to Xuhuai, and was known as the fortress of the world through Kyushu.

Yuxi said, "If we can capture Xiayi, it will not only cut off the connection between the capital and Jiangnan, but also disturb their military hearts. It's hard to just capture Xiayi." Although they have fifty thousand soldiers and horses On the side of Xiayi, but the other side of Xiayi is also heavily guarded.

Yun Qing said: "With Yan Wushuang's intervention, this attack on Jiangnan will be much more difficult than expected. However, as long as Xiayi is taken down, the loss will be much smaller." Seeing Yuxi looking at him, Yun Qing said two words.

Oak Xi said, "It's a little risky."

Yun Qing said: "It's very risky, but only by surprise can we capture Xiayi." After a pause, Yun Qing said again: "This matter has a 60% chance of winning." The 60% chance of winning is actually not high. . However, Oak Xi believed in Yun Qing, so he did not ask any further questions.

Mei Yun said outside, "Your Highness, Princess, the supper is ready." Not only Yun Qing, but also Yuxi would have supper at night. However, Yuxi eats some soup and water, while Yunqing usually eats noodles and dumplings.

After washing up, the two went to bed. Yuxi told Yun Qing one thing: "Big brother sent a letter today, talking about Qiqi's marriage."

Among all the Han family members, the only one Yun Qing recognized was Han Jianming. Even if Han Jianye has turned around now, Yunqing still doesn't like him. Yun Qing looked at Yuxi's somewhat tangled expression and laughed: "What did the eldest brother say in the letter to make you so embarrassed?" Han Jianming is a very measured person. He knows that Yuxi is very busy and will definitely not put his daughter The marriage was handed over to Oak Xi. As for official duties, they are all handled fairly, not to mention Oak-hee's entanglement.

Yuxi said depressedly, "Do you know who the eldest brother chose for Qiqi Xiang? It's Zhi Ao's child.

"

When Yun Qing heard this, he found it interesting: "Big brother has a vision, Zhi Ao's child is considered to be the best in the next generation." Of course, he couldn't compare to his brother Hao.

Yu Xi glanced at Yun Qing and said, "If Zhi Ao is not good, why would I choose him to be a companion to Brother Hao? It's just that Zhi Ao is two years younger than Qi Qi!" It's a good match, but the age doesn't match.

Yun Qing said with a smile, "What does it matter when you are two years older, don't you often say that the female junior holds golden bricks!" In Yucheng, there are many wives who are three or five years older than him.

Yuxi said, "I'm afraid that Sister-in-Law Feng won't!" As far as she knew, Chang didn't mention this to Lu Xiu. People didn't pay attention, it's not a problem for the woman to catch up.

Yun Qing felt that Oak Xi handled government affairs neatly and neatly, but she was a bit mother-in-law about these household chores. Yun Qing said, "This is a major marriage event, and the parents of both parties must be willing. Let your second sister-in-law go to explore the wind. If Dajun's daughter-in-law is interested, she will definitely send a matchmaker to the door to talk about her marriage. If she doesn't, she can't force it." To take care of Qiqi's marriage. Once a precedent is set, wouldn't it be necessary for Yuxi to make arrangements for Jiachang and others' marriages in the future? They can't take care of their own children, how can they still have the energy to take care of other people's children.

Yuxi hummed, "Alright."

Yun Qing was a little strange, and asked, "Why did Big Brother choose Zhi Ao?" As far as he knew, Han Jianming didn't seem to have seen Zhi Ao.

Yuxi said his guess: "Zhi Ao is the companion I chose for Brother Hao. Big brother probably chose him for this reason." Brother Hao's three companions were also Zhi Ao's age. Closest to Seventy Seven.

Yun Qing said with a smile: "On this basis, Zhi Ao is chosen, how can it feel like a joke." He must be cautious when choosing a son-in-law for Liu Er in the future.

Yu Xi didn't think so, and said, "We have chosen a companion for Brother Hao, and all aspects of temperament and ability must be considered. If they do not meet the requirements, they will definitely not be selected." Since temperament and ability are all good , as a son-in-law can also do.

Yun Qing shook his head and said, "Accompanying reading is one thing, and being a son-in-law is another." Whether the two children are similar in love must also be considered.

Yu Xi snorted and said, "It's really worth considering. But the elder brother's choice is better than the elder sister-in-law's choice." Although he has been married to Yun Qing for so many years, there are still some things that are hard to say. In fact, Oak-hee knew the real reason why Han Jianming chose Zhi Ao. As one of Yun Qing's confidants, Feng Dajun has a very good prospect, needless to say. In this case, marrying the Feng family is equivalent to increasing the strength of the Han family.

Oak-hee also had to admit that her grandmother had been very successful in educating her elder brother. In the eyes of the eldest brother, the interests and glory of the family have always been the most important.

The one Yun Qing disliked the most was Mrs. Ye, and he said, "It's rare that this child Qiqi doesn't look like her." Mrs. Ye was not only unable to manage the family, but also didn't know the whole thing.

Yu Xi shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law was not like this before. In the capital, the Ye family took care of the entire imperial mansion properly. It was only after that incident came out that she changed her love." On the face it's still okay.

Yun Qing didn't believe this, and said, "In the past, life was smooth and there were no twists and turns, so I couldn't see the truth. When something happened, the truth was revealed."

Oak-hee felt that continuing this topic would make the couple unhappy: "Okay, it's getting late, let's sleep!"

Han Jianming wrote not only to Oak-hee, but also to Qiu's. After reading the letter, Qiu found Lu Xiu and asked, "You often walk outside, but do you know what kind of person the eldest young master of the Feng family is?" Qiu never objected to her son's choice. It's just that she grew up watching Qiqi after all, and she also has to understand the basic situation of the person chosen by her son.

As soon as Lu Xiu heard it, he knew that the uncle was in love with the Feng family's child. Lu Xiu thought for a moment and said, "The eldest young master of the Feng family is now the companion by the Shizi's side. I heard that Pinxian has a good temper, but there are two things that are unsatisfactory." Brother Hao'er's three companions were even Some ladies will also mention it when communicating.

Qiu Shi's illness is almost better now, leaning on the Ruyi pillow and asking, "Which two things are not satisfactory?"

Lu Xiu said: "First, the eldest young master of the Feng family is two years younger than Qiqi. Second, the eldest young master of the Feng family will definitely inherit his father's business, and he will also lead the army to fight in the future. Mother also knows that the elder sister-in-law wants to take Qiqi Qi is married to a child of a scholar family. If I choose the eldest young master of the Feng family, I wonder if I should ask the sister-in-law first. If the sister-in-law does not agree, it is not good to go to the Feng family to talk about it. If the words are passed, the Feng family agrees, but Sister-in-law doesn't agree, doesn't it offend people."

Qiu Shi thought for a while and said, "In this way, let's meet this child first." As long as the child is good, everything can be said.

Lu Xiu said with a smile, "It's easy to do. Brother Hua and Zhi Ao are both accomplices of the Shizi, and the two of them have a good relationship. Ming rì, I asked Brother Hua to bring the children to dinner at home."

Qiu Shi nodded and said, "That's good."

After seeing Feng Zhi'ao, Qiu Shi agreed without hesitation: "He's a good boy, please ask someone to tell the Feng family. If the Feng family agrees, then tell your sister-in-law. If she doesn't agree with you, just say it's you. Big brother and my decision."

Although Qiu's had long since given up, her words at the Han family carried a lot of weight. The reason is very simple, because children are filial, and daughters-in-law who have children to support must also be obedient.

Lu Xiu smiled and said, "Okay."

Back in his yard, Lu Xiu's maid, Alan, said softly, "Madam, if the Feng family's madam doesn't agree, wouldn't it be a loss for the Han family's face?" At that time, it was his own wife who would be difficult to do.

Lu Xiu smiled and said, "I have also explained to Mrs. Feng several times, and he is a good person."

Feng Dajun's good looks are no secret in Haocheng, but those Yingying and Yanyan haven't even given birth to an egg over the years, and now Feng Dajun has only two sons and one daughter born to his wife Feng. From this alone, it is known that Chang is a smart and powerful woman. Although the Chang family did not perform very well, in the entire Gaocheng, no one underestimated this Chang family.

Lu Xiu really got it wrong. Feng Dajun has only two sons and one daughter born to Chang's so far. It is not that Chang's means are powerful, but that Feng Dajun promised that his children will only be born to Chang's. Those concubines will be drenched in Jizi soup afterwards, some of them will be pregnant, and they will all be dropped in the end.

Alan sighed and said, "Even if this marriage is done, the eldest lady will blame you."

Lu Xiu said with a smile, "I didn't choose people, so I can't complain about me." If you want to complain, you can only complain about the uncle and mother-in-law. Even if Ye Shi was dissatisfied, he did not dare to resist.

Alan said these words, in fact, it is not worth it for Lu Xiu. Over the years, my wife, the housekeeper, has worked hard without credit. It's a pity that the eldest lady not only did not read well, but complained a lot.

Knowing what Alan was thinking, Lu Xiu said, "Just wait until Brother Chang gets a wife." When Brother Chang gets a wife, then the housekeeping will be handed over to Brother Chang's daughter-in-law. She won't be bothered anymore. .

ps: Qiqi with Zhi Ao, what do you think? O(∩_∩)O~, if you feel good, please vote for it. (To be continued)
