Chapter 135 Don¡¯t understand people¡¯s hearts

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yunyao practices daily in the North Bank. She spends the extra time working while watching the current situation in the South Bank, as if she is following an inspirational entrepreneurial TV series.

    Today, when I saw the matchmaker entering the southern fief, I knew that someone wanted to match match Xiao Ge.

    Xiao Ge is indeed not young, but he is under thirty, so it is not a crime even if he is single.  A man would have to break the rules of Zhou etiquette and be punished if he did not marry until he was thirty.  The king of Lu State is willing to betroth the second princess to him, and according to Xiao Ge's conditions, he is completely able to accept this marriage.  Because marriage can consolidate the relationship between Xiao and Lu.

    But Xiao Ge still has to think about it and make a decision after discussing it with his family.

    The result of the discussion is of course that there is no reason to reject the marriage of Lu Guo. Xiao Guo is newly established and has a lot of needs for help. If Lu Guo can provide help, it will be extremely happy.  When the bride comes, in addition to the dowry, she will definitely bring a lot of people, all of which Xiao Country lacks.

    So Xiao Ge agreed to the marriage. He said to the matchmaker: "I, Xiao Guo, are willing to send a marriage certificate and wait until next summer to marry the second princess of Lu Guo."

    When the matchmaker saw that he had completed his task, he immediately took out the bamboo slips and signed a marriage contract so that he could return to his hometown.

    Just when they thought everything was fine and the marriage could be completed smoothly, there was a sudden noise, and then a shrill scream.

    Xiao Ge was stunned, and when he came outside the house, he saw slave Zhuang Zheng holding a stone and beating a Lu soldier so hard that his head was broken.

    The deceased only let out a scream and died.

    The process happened so fast that the surrounding soldiers didn¡¯t even react. They thought they were very safe in Xiao Guo¡¯s fief, and they didn¡¯t have to worry even if there were Dongyi slaves not far away.

    But he didn¡¯t expect that a slave as strong as a bear would directly launch a sneak attack, knocking the person down and killing him in one fell swoop.

    ¡°It wasn¡¯t until the dead man¡¯s head was mixed with the mud that the surrounding soldiers reacted, but no one dared to take action against the crazy strong man.

    "Bold!" When he saw that his slave had killed the entourage of the envoy from the State of Lu, Xiao Ge was furious. He picked up the wooden stick on the side and rushed forward. With a fake move, he first lured Zhuang into throwing the stone in his hand, and then nimbly avoided it.  Kai attacks from the other side.

    This is the exquisite move in "Eight Masters of Ge", "Ge Shadow Follows", which combines the virtual and the real to attack the enemy unprepared.

    Although Zhuang was strong, he relied solely on brute force and had never learned any combat skills. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ge was attacking in the east and west, and it was difficult to dodge at this time. He was stabbed in the waist, and half of his strength was suddenly exhausted.

    "Xiao Ge has experienced hundreds of battles. He can accumulate military exploits and become a baron. He is definitely a magic weapon on the battlefield. His fighting style is tough but agile. He can step on the breeze with his feet and draw his stick like a dragon.

    Zhuang was stabbed hard by a stick, and Xiao Ge continued his sweep: "Chariot Ping Ge." Boom, the long stick roared like a chariot running over the enemy's head. The stick hit the back of the head firmly, and the huge force penetrated into the brain.  .

    Zhuang¡¯s mouth and nose immediately oozed bloody saliva and snot, and he fainted and overlapped with the corpse.

    "What's going on?!" Xiao Ge was furious. Zhuang was a slave he valued very much, so why did he violently and harm others? "Why didn't you keep an eye on him? Is the bronze Changge in your hands just a decoration?  "It's just a lot of blame for the retainers.

    The matchmaker looked unhappy. Is this a slap in the face?  "This slave must be executed. I want to take his head back." It is winter now, so there is no need to embalm the head. If it comes to summer, salt must be added, otherwise it will stink on the road.

    Xiao Ge was reluctant. After all, one strong person is worth ten, and it would still be useful when clearing wasteland: "Do you think it's okay if I exchange it with another slave? This slave is as strong as a bull, and I still need him to open up wasteland. If you are willing  Otherwise, you can choose for yourself, and chop off whichever head you like to pay homage to the dead warrior." Zhou Li does not understand people's hearts. Everyone has their own concerns about kinship and distance, as well as gains and losses in interests, so it is not possible for everyone to follow Zhou Li's form.  .

    "A murder must be paid for a life. Since he killed the person, how can he find someone else to take his place?" The matchmaker did not accept this suggestion: "I want his head. You don't have to worry about land reclamation. As long as you marry our Lu country, we will  We, the Lu State, will not treat you badly when the time comes, and we will definitely offer you cattle, sheep, and fine breeds. So in order to complete the marriage, this murderer must be executed."

    Before the marriage, Xiao Ge felt that the Lu State was using its status as a big country to bully a small country that had just established its own country.  Although he is only a baron, with no high position or great power, and he has few people and food, he is not a vassal of the Lu State: "My lord, we won't get married until next year, but the land reclamation is imminent. Water from afar cannot quench the thirst of the near. I can't do it because of Lu."  He will give up his current job as promised by the country. So he can't kill, he has to live." Pointing at the unconscious Zhuang, Xiao Ge said word by word.

    The matchmaker frowned,?I found that Xiao Ge had a bad tone and a very bad temper.  The matchmaker thought that this person would not obey Lu Guo easily. Will Lu Guo lose the second princess and lose the dowry when the time comes?

    The reason why Lu Jun is optimistic about Xiao Ge is because of his fighting ability. Lu State is close to Dongyi and is threatened every year.  Although you can ask other princes for help, the help is not free and requires real money.  So Lu Jun thought that if he had a son-in-law who could fight, if Lu Guo needed help, the son-in-law would be able to help, so that he could spend one-time money to obtain the permanent use rights of Xiao Ge.

    If they encounter harassment from Dongyi again, Lu Guo will ask Xiao Guo for help. With Xiao Ge's bravery and the soldiers of the two countries, the combined force of the two countries will be enough to resist Dongyi.  This is a huge profit, so Lu Guo will seek marriage with Xiao Guo.

    In this calculation, everyone in the Lu State looked down upon Xiao Ge, a baron. Even if he succeeded in founding the country, it would not change the fact that the Lu State was large and the Xiao State was small, nor could it change the fact that the overall national power of the Lu State was stronger than that of the Xiao State.  Facts will inevitably lead to contempt and neglect.

    The matchmaker's tone already showed that Lu Guo's attitude towards Xiao Guo was not equality, but condescending overlooking.

    When the matchmaker heard that Xiao Ge was so ungrateful, he immediately said: "Are you going to destroy the marriage between the two countries just for a slave? Don't let a small thing cost you a big thing. This slave is strong, but since he is violent and murderous, he can't be kept. Can't you keep him?  Aren¡¯t you afraid that he will kill people in your Xiao country?¡±

    "His performance has always been good. He has never hurt anyone. I don't know what happened today." Xiao Ge didn't understand what Zhuang Fa was crazy about. If he wanted to go crazy, he would have had it a long time ago, and he wouldn't have waited until now.  : "Does he know this soldier? Did this person also participate in the war against Dongyi?"

    The matchmaker nodded: "He did participate, so what?"

    "It is most likely because of personal grudges." Xiao Ge still had his own considerations. He said euphemistically: "Otherwise, if it is a personal grudge, we will not raise it to the national level. When he wakes up, we will ask him clearly.  If it¡¯s a personal grudge, I¡¯ll tie him up and submerge him in the river as punishment, and at the same time, how about you choose a slave¡¯s head and let us know about this?¡±

    When the matchmaker looked at the ice-blocked river, he thought that even if he was as strong as a cow, it would be a disaster if it dipped in the river in the twelfth lunar month, so he agreed: "Okay, it's a deal."

    He would not have thought that Xiao Ge had made up his mind that if Zhuang Dong got sick, he would go to Bei'an Yunyao for treatment, in order to save Zhuang's life anyway.
