"Young master, please take a look."

The stall owner handed the note to Tang Zang.

Tang Zang took the note and spread it out to check.Tang Xuejian leaned over to Tang Zang to watch.

"99."

The note says "99"

The stall owner continued: "That's right, type "99". If you can guess it, then the colorful lantern will naturally belong to you."

Tang Xuejian scratched her head: "Just give the number, how do you guess? Let's buy it for money, okay?"

The stall owner shook his head with a smile: "I won't sell this lantern for any amount of money."

Tang Zang thought for a while, returned the note to the stall owner, and said, "The answer is "white." I wonder if I guessed it right?"

The stall owner picked up the bamboo pole, took down the lantern that Tang Xuejian liked, and handed it to Tang Zang: "Congratulations, young master, you guessed right. This lantern belongs to you, and you won't take any money."

"Thank you."

Tang Zang took the lantern and handed it to Tang Xuejian who was beside him.

Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, the stall owner hurriedly said, "My lord, can you leave your name?"

Tang Zang took Tang Xuejian's hand, turned his head and said, "When we meet each other by fate, I will definitely let you know and say goodbye."

After finishing speaking, she pulled Tang Xuejian and disappeared into the crowd.

The stall owner bowed fifteen degrees to Tang Zang's leaving back, and finally sighed,
I will leave for the capital tomorrow, it seems that I will not have the chance to meet this talented man again.

He waited for this crossword puzzle all night, at least a hundred people came to guess the crossword riddle, many of them were scholars and scholars, but no one could guess this crossword riddle, only Tang Zang could guess the answer within ten breaths.

Therefore, in his opinion, Tang Zang is a rare talent, a talented man with a nine-foot-five-inch Yanyue knife on his back.

Tang Xue saw that she got the colorful lantern, and she couldn't put it down. She gave Tang Zang the old lantern and played with the new lantern by herself.

Women also like the new and dislike the old.

Tang Xuejian: "By the way, brother, how did you guess the word riddle?"

Tang Zang: "One hundred and one is 99, and the word 'hundred' to 'one' is white. Do you understand? Silly sister."

"I'm not stupid, brother, you are. Silly brother."

"Okay, I'm stupid."

Tang Zang rubbed her little head with a smile: "Let's go, we've had enough fun, find an inn to rest, we have to go on the road tomorrow."

Tang Xuejian: "I still want to eat candied haws, the big ones."

"Okay, I'll buy it for you."

Tang Xuejian held a lantern in one hand and candied haws in the other, with a happy smile on her little face.

the next day......

The moment the sun came out, Tang Zang meditated as usual,
After eating breakfast with Tang Xuejian, after buying some dry food,

On the journey again.

When the force reaches the seventh stage and above, one can walk with restraint, and it only takes half a day from Yicheng to the capital.

But Tang Zang didn't want to arrive in the capital so soon, he just wanted to eat, drink and have fun with his sister on the slow journey, because he didn't know if he would have time to eat and play with her in the future, so he would cherish every time spent with his sister For a moment, let her be happy.

This is not only the instruction of parents, but also the responsibility that an elder brother should fulfill.

capital city......

Shangguan Mansion...

Backyard Chamber...

Sitting here are Shangguan Yinger's grandfather, parents, uncles, aunts, all elders who can talk to Shangguan's family are sitting here,
Shangguan Ying'er stood obediently behind her father, and the expression on her face seemed a little aggrieved.

Shangguan Yinger's father said, "This is the situation."

He told Shangguan Yinger to divorce Tang Zang, and told Tang Zang that he hadn't awakened his martial soul.

The engagement between Shangguan Yinger and Tang Zang was known to all the elders in the Shangguan family.

Fifteen years ago, Shangguan Yinger's father passed through Yicheng and was ambushed by the enemy. He happened to be rescued by Tang Youwei who was passing by. Tang Youwei arranged for Shangguan Yinger's father to recuperate in the Tang family.
At that time, Shangguan Yinger's father saw the young Tang Zang. He saw Tang Zang with strange bones, and concluded that Tang Zang must be a rare genius after awakening his martial spirit, so he discussed with Tang Youwei, A marriage contract was made and a token was left.

After returning to Shangguan's house, he told his family about the incident. Shangguan Ying'er's grandfather said that if she was really a good seedling, it would not be a bad idea to marry Ying'er.

Later, six years ago, Shangguan Yinger's father sent his men to secretly check Tang Zang's awakened martial soul.

When the subordinates learned that Tang Zang hadn't awakened his martial soul, they rushed back without stopping, and they didn't know about the Tang family's extermination.

They only knew that Tang Zang had no martial soul, but they didn't know about the tragedy of the Tang family.

When Shangguan Yinger's parents learned that Tang Zang hadn't awakened his martial spirit, Shangguan Yinger's mother wanted to withdraw from the marriage.

And because Shangguan Yinger's father wanted to save face, if he took back what he said, wouldn't that be slapping himself in the face?So he did not agree to divorce.

So it stuck like this,

It was not until the 16-year-old Shangguan Yinger overheard their conversation that this family meeting took place.

Shangguan Yinger's grandfather, Shangguan Ye knocked on the table: "My granddaughter will not marry a trash, this matter is up to you to settle, if my granddaughter marries that surnamed Tang, you will get out of Shangguan's house .”

After finishing speaking, Shangguanye left the conference hall on crutches.

The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay,

After the scene was silent for a while, Shangguan Yinger's uncle, Shangguan Shu suggested: "How about this, if someone from the Tang family comes to propose marriage, we will make an excuse to say that Yinger went out to practice and dragged it until she was 17 years old. She was 16 years old, and now Yinger is 17 years old, so the engagement will be void. What do you guys think?"

Shangguan Yinger's father, Shangguan with a knife, said: "No, Yinger will be 17 years old in eight months, where do you let Yinger settle in these eight months?"

At this moment, Shangguan Yinger's aunt said, "How about we choose a marriage for Yinger before the Tang family comes?"

Shangguan Yinger's uncle slapped the table and said, "The Tang family is here, so we should simply divorce them. Are we afraid that a small Tang family will fail?"

Shangguan with a knife: "Brother is right, but doing so will inevitably damage the reputation of the Shangguan family."

Shangguan Yinger's uncle: "Don't tell me you want your daughter to marry a trash? That's the way to go. They're all gone, so what should I do?"

…………

After a month and a half journey, the brother and sister finally arrived in the capital,

The carriages were parked at the gate of the capital. Because of the dense population in the city, most carriages were not allowed to enter the city. Only carriages purchased in the capital were allowed to enter and leave the capital.

So the two brothers and sisters got out of the carriage at the gate of the city,
Tang Zang paid the coachman for his hire and sold the carriage, and then he and Tang Xuejian walked into the city.

He was stopped by soldiers at the gate of the city, and he was released after asking about the purpose of coming to the capital.

Walking into the capital, the bustling streets, the crowds coming and going, the chaotic hawking, and the women's branch hospital that is still open during the day.

Tang Xuejian looked at the bustling streets and some magnificent buildings that she had never seen before, and her heart was about to move, as if she was going to have a big fun.

If Tang Zang hadn't dragged Tang Xuejian, she might have run away long ago.
