Isn’t it good for the five of us to be together?

"Why don't you argue with me, the county master? I should be the most qualified to speak about the marriage between the two countries."

Seeing what I said, the leading minister naturally nodded: "The county master said yes. I dare to ask what the county master means..."

"The county chief has said that he will not marry."

It must be that I answered too neatly. The minister was stunned and wanted to ask what happened.

"Then the emperor of Nanyang is not the one I like, so even if the marriage is a marriage, it should be based on mutual consent, right? What's more, if the Emperor of Nanyang himself has the person he likes, why should I rush to marry him? "

The minister said: "But that woman seems to have passed away..."

"Master Li." I interrupted him, "It is already inappropriate to discuss a woman's life-long affairs in court. Why do you still want to discuss the life and death of irrelevant people now? Master Li, don't you want to wear this black gauze hat?"

Mr. Li seemed to be driven into a hurry by me, and he said: "It is my negligence, but if the county lord is unwilling to marry, the county lord cannot get the title of county lord in vain!"

"For nothing?"

I seemed to have heard some big joke.

"presumptuous!"

Chi Wanshen, who was watching the show on the side, couldn't sit still when he heard these words: "How can the Holy Spirit allow you to say anything?"

Master Li immediately knelt down, realizing that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly begged for mercy, but it was obvious that he had not forgotten his mission today: "Your Majesty, those are two cities..."

I said: "I remember that Mr. Li's family seems to have a girl who is about to have haircuts. Mr. Li is so considerate of the country, it would be better to do this. The Emperor of Nanyang only wanted to marry the county chief of Beiyin, but he did not specify who she was. . I will give my name as the county lord to my daughter."

I placed the county lord's token in front of him. His eyes widened. I just wanted him to retreat.

No father in the world would easily hand over his daughter like this.

But it's clear that he does.

"The minister takes orders."

I:"……"

I looked at him. He had many wrinkles on his face, but his eyes were firm, perhaps showing reluctance or something else, and his eyes were red.

I turned around and bowed deeply to Chi Wan: "From now on, only Chen Anping, the strategist of Chen, is left in Beiyin."

I didn't want to see Chi Wanshen's expression, I was afraid of seeing my selfish self in his eyes.

He didn't say much, just kept silent for a while, then asked people to retreat, and finally left me alone.

I thought he would say that I had done this, but he just said: "What happened today will make you the target of public criticism."

Chi Wanshen was dressed very simply today, not so fancy, but he still wore a string of silver jewelry. I was fascinated by what he said. When I heard what he said, I looked up at him and saw a trace of... distress in his eyes?

He transferred his position as county head directly to others in the court, just so that he could push away the marriage, and casually threw the ball to others. He also knew how excited it would be once word spread about this.

"I know it, but I don't regret it."

There was a trace of doubt on Chi Wanshen's face: "Are you so unwilling to marry him?"

"……Yes."

Not to mention how easy it would be to lose your vest after getting married to Ling Hengyuan day and night. Even with Ling Hengyuan's character of killing people at every turn, I don't want to marry him. Like I said before, if it weren't for the mission, I wouldn't have contacted someone like him.

Besides, I haven't finished my work in Beiyin yet, so giving up halfway is not my style.

Chi Wanshen was very quiet today. Perhaps he was too tired these past few days and he didn't have the mind to care about it: "But the daughter of Mr. Li's family may not necessarily be willing to marry far away."

"I know."

Chi Wanshen did not formally issue a decree to give her the title of County Lord, in order to allow room for maneuver in this matter. Mr. Li's daughter does not want to marry, so naturally the title of County Lord will return to me.

"Why don't you want to? I'll marry you!"

The first thing I asked, she responded immediately.

Mr. Li's daughter Li Zhiyuan is about to reach the age of hairpins. She looks very delicate and can play the piano and dance. Because of Mr. Li, she has eaten a lot of poems and books since she was a child. She is playful and gentle, and every move she makes is polite. .

After having a deep chat with Chi Wan, I felt really sorry and went to visit Li Mansion. Mr. Li still had the same serious expression, but when he saw it was me, he still welcomed me in.

Mr. Li and I had nothing to talk about, so I told him that I wanted to talk to Qin Yuan.

He agreed.

I just walked outside the door and smelled a hint of tea.

Li Zhiyuan had already known from the maid that I was coming to see her, so she made tea early and waited for me.

The tea is delicious and Li Zhiyuan is very welcoming.

After retreating from the screen, she seemed to have liberated herself instantly, with light in her eyes: "Why don't you want to? I'll marry you."

I was almost frightened: "Ms. Li...how do you say this?"

Li Zhiyuan could no longer hide the joy in her eyes. She smiled and said: "That day to greet the envoy was one of the few days I could leave the house. I was standing on the second floor, and there were many people below, but I could see the county at a glance. My lord, the county lord is dressed in purple, but I don’t know how many people have been attracted by his beauty.”

Off topic...

Li Zhiyuan: "I was still thinking that it was such a beautiful day and there were so many people that I couldn't have a good stroll. In the blink of an eye, I saw the legendary emperor of Nanyang. He ascended the throne at a young age and was vigorous and resolute. This is what dad said about him. But I didn't I just know that Mo Shangren is like jade, so I’m afraid that’s the case.”

I was drinking tea calmly.

Li Zhiyuan: "I knew that I was not qualified to stand by his side. When my father told me to take over the title of county lord and marry him to Nanyang, I was not only surprised, but also happy."

I blinked: "Miss Li...don't you know that Emperor Nanyang is cruel and murderous?"

"I know." She poured me another cup of tea, "But if I can exchange my marriage for two cities, I think this life will be worth it."

I was silent.

This level of thinking is beyond my reach.

Li Zhiyuan's eyes were bright: "Although being with you is like being with a tiger, I also believe that love will last for a long time. It's his business how he treats me, and it's my business if I give him a sincere heart. Maybe one day he will be Am I impressed?"

I hesitated to speak.

"Ms. Li, don't you think it would be selfish of me to do this?"

Li Zhiyuan: "I don't think the county lord must decide his own life-long affairs. It's my father who forced the county lord to this point. What's more, I'm very happy, and the county lord doesn't have to worry too much."

"I am no longer the county boss."

Li Zhiyuan: "The Lord of the County is still the Lord of the County before His Majesty gives the decree. Lord of the County, drink your tea quickly, otherwise the tea will not taste good when it gets cold."

It must be said that Li Zhiyuan was very good at making tea. He also asked his servants to bring some snacks and chatted with her for a long time before leaving.
