As soon as Shen Zhenren spoke, he found Ouyang's expression strange, and quickly explained: "My surname is Shen, and my name is Zhenren. My parents hoped that I would succeed in cultivation, so they gave me such a name. In the name of a real person, please don’t make fun of me, fellow Taoists.”

——It turned out to be a second-generation repairman.

Ouyang twitched the corner of his mouth, instead of making fun of Shen Zhenren's name, he paid more attention to his age.

Shortly after his resurrection, Ouyang noticed that he could not grow a beard long before he found out that he could not bear children.Although he doesn't like that stuff too much, but his mouth is hairless, and he can't do things well. In this environment where a man needs to grow a beard, an overly smooth chin will always make people have some unpleasant emotions. Hateful association.

But when he saw Master Shen who couldn't even see the stubble, and compared his real age, Ouyang realized that the real reason for this result should be cultivation, not resurrection from death.

Ouyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and bid farewell to Shen Zhenren.

Shen Zhenzhen felt that the two had a very happy conversation, and they were worthy of being like-minded people. He didn't expect Ouyang to leave so soon. He wanted to keep him but didn't know how to speak, so he could only send him out of the house reluctantly.

Seeing Ouyang's clothes fluttering and disappearing into the dense forest, Shen Zhenren suddenly understood why there are always male cultivators in the sect looking for people of the same sex to be Taoist companions.

On the road to longevity, if there is such a fellow Taoist with profound cultivation, bright and charming as his companion, who cares whether he is a man or a woman!

Shen Zhenren unconsciously touched his chest, only to feel that his spring heart, which had been silent for decades, jumped up in this cold winter day.

Ouyang has never learned from him, so naturally he will not know the ambitions that Shen Zhenren has sprouted.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, two major events ushered in the court.One is that the princes and princes are leaving the capital and returning to their respective military camps to guard the territory for His Majesty the Emperor; the other is that His Majesty the Emperor wants to choose famous teachers for the princes and daughters to teach them, and ordered the courtiers to recommend suitable candidates.

But these two things have nothing to do with Ouyang.

After entrusting Su Su with the task of finding an apprentice for Shen Zhenren, and making a preliminary screening of the personnel at Huangzhuang, the thing Ouyang needs to face is: the return of the Ou family.

Perhaps because of the difficult journey in winter, the Ou family returned to Beijing much later than expected, arriving in the capital on the afternoon of the 24th of the first lunar month.

When her biological parents came back, Ou Jing naturally couldn't live in her uncle's mansion anymore, so she packed her bags that day and led a group of servants back to another Ou mansion - the former Qingyang uncle's mansion, the future Cheng Enhou government.

According to the usual "rituals", Ouyang should call the Ou family into the palace or return home in person.But he really didn't want to see the obnoxious faces of the Ou family, so he called his nominal elder brother Ou Qian to the Summer Palace on the second day the Ou family arrived in the capital, and met briefly.

Ou Qian was also not interested in chatting with Ouyang about the family, and simply explained the current situation of the family, implicitly implying that Ouyang need not worry, he and his mother Zhao will control everyone in the family and will not let Ouyang "work hard" Interfering in the trivial matters of the Ou family.

This kind of irrelevance is also what Ouyang hopes most.

It is impossible for him and the Ou family to make a clean break in the true sense. If possible, Ouyang does not want to be cruel to the Ou family.But if there are always people in the Ou family like Ou Mo who are looking for trouble and committing suicide, it is impossible for Ouyang to show mercy again and again just because their surname is Ou.

Before the meeting ended, Ouyang casually asked about Ou Jing's marriage, wondering what Ou Qian's plans were.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he uttered the words, Ou Qian over there frowned like a dog whose tail was stepped on, widened his eyes, and asked back as if he was facing a big enemy: "Nine thousand years old has something for her!" arrange?"

——You are only nine thousand years old, and your whole family is...

——Bah, bah, I accidentally scolded myself too!

Ouyang calmed down depressedly, frowned and asked back: "You are her own father, if you don't make arrangements for her, why wait for my uncle to make arrangements for her? If you really plan to do so, it's better to let Jing'er plan for herself. Anyway, after the beginning of spring, each family will hold a spring banquet, and if you go to a few more houses, you will always meet a husband who makes her happy."

Today's atmosphere is fairly open. Although there are many rules that my daughter's family must abide by, they are far from strict enough to leave the gate without leaving the second door.When the aristocratic families hold banquets, the male guests and the female guests only sit in separate seats, and there is no screen or even a courtyard between them, so that men and women cannot see each other.

Because of this, most of today's banquets take into account the effect of blind dates.Especially in spring, when the heart of spring is germinating, the little lady and the young man will gather together under the leadership of the elders to look for marriage on the premise of matching each other.

When Ouyang said this, Ou Qian was obviously taken aback, as if he didn't expect to hear such a reply from Ouyang.

Before Ouyang could say anything else, Ou Qian couldn't wait to answer, and then got up to leave quickly.

Ouyang couldn't help but have black lines all over his head, always feeling that Ou Qian was hiding something.

But after thinking about it, Ouyang felt that it shouldn't be a big deal. Nine times out of ten, Ou Qian thought that he had already found a home for his daughter, so he was unprepared for Ou Jing's marriage, and unexpectedly heard that Ouyang was like him. I didn't make any plans, and I couldn't help but panic for a while.

After all, Ou Jing will be seventeen after the Chinese New Year. If she doesn't find a good husband's family, the big girl will become an old girl.

But in this matter, Ouyang is really powerless, and there is nothing he can do to help.

Ouyang has never tasted a blind date in his two lifetimes, and he doesn't know how to match the so-called "talented man and woman with good looks and well-matched families".

— Forget it, let Ou Jing search for it by herself first!

——If it doesn’t work, ask Qi Yunheng to come out again!

Thinking of this, Ouyang put the matter behind him.

A few days later, Ouyang finally understood what was going on with Ouqian's strange reaction.

On the last day of the first lunar month, Qi Yunheng rarely entered the Summer Palace through the main entrance.

After changing into light clothes under the service of the palace servants, Qi Yunheng sat down on the chair beside Ouyang, and then showed a face ashamed to speak, and said cautiously: "I just came from the queen's side..."

"Oh." Ouyang squinted his eyes, thinking that Qi Yunheng was planning to have a baby with Queen Wang, so he pretended to come over to test his attitude, and couldn't help feeling tired.

However, Qi Yunheng changed his voice, "... She asked me something, which surprised me. After thinking about it, I think it's better to come here and ask you directly."

Speaking of this, Qi Yunheng paused for a moment, and then continued: "Double eaves, but you want Jing'er to enter the palace as a concubine?"

"What?!" Ouyang Gang stuffed a piece of peach into his mouth. When he heard Qi Yunheng's words, he almost choked on himself. Qi Yunheng stared and asked, "How could I marry Jing'er to you?! Where did this rumor come from?!"

Qi Yunheng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "I also find it unbelievable, but the queen said it swearingly, and also said that this story came from Cheng Enhou's mansion, and it was said by the Ou family."

Qi Yunheng went to Queen Wang today to discuss with her which banquets and ceremonies can be omitted this year, which ones can be kept simple, and which ones must be held. Just talking, Wang Queen mentioned this matter, which scared Qi Yunheng Put aside the business in a hurry, go to Ouyang first and ask about Ou Jing clearly.

From a rational point of view, Qi Yunheng felt that letting Ou Jing enter the palace was a good move.Although Ouyang doesn't need a niece to secure his favor, he really needs a heir who is connected with his blood to secure his position.If Ou Jing can give birth to a prince who is as talented as Ouyang... no, even if it is only a prince who is as talented and beautiful as Ou Jing, Qi Yunheng is very happy to make him the prince and pass on the throne to him.

But thinking about it from an irrational point of view, Qi Yunheng felt that even if Ou Jing entered the palace, it would be very difficult for him to say anything.As long as he thinks that this is Ouyang's niece, he will feel uncomfortable. If the two of them sleep on the same bed, it's hard to say whether they can "sleep", let alone have a child.

Fortunately, Ouyang hasn't done anything that would allow him to weigh it rationally.

Seeing Ouyang's reaction that was about to explode, Qi Yunheng warned himself with lingering fear: If you think rationally or something, just think about it quietly, and don't say it out loud, let the emperor know.

Ouyang was furious at this moment, grabbed Qi Yunheng, and asked, "Did the Ou family really spread this matter?"

"I haven't sent anyone to investigate yet." Qi Yunheng spread his hands, pretending to be innocent, "But the queen told me so. She has been summoning her wife for the past few days, presumably she heard some news from outside the palace."

After the sacrifice, Qi Yunheng further delegated power to the queen.Queen Wang also fulfilled her duties and tried her best to carry all the things that the queen should undertake.

"No need to check, I'll ask myself!" Ouyang slammed the table, "Pang Zhong! Send someone to deliver a letter to Cheng Enhou's mansion. I'm nine thousand years old and I'm going to visit tomorrow. Let them get ready and welcome them with big gifts. !"

After receiving the news of Ouyang Mingri's "visiting relatives", the Ou family was in a panic.

Except for a few junior members of the Ou family who didn't know what the third uncle was, and a small number of concubines and servants who were trapped in the back house, no one felt that this was a happy event worth celebrating with the whole family.

Anyone who has been in the Ou family for a long time knows that although the third young master returns home rarely, every time there is nothing good.Nine times out of ten, the master will be severely beaten, and if the others cannot dodge in time, they will inevitably suffer from him too.After the third young master left, there were always a few fewer members of the family, sometimes they were masters, sometimes they were servants.

All in all, that's a loser. Once he comes back, someone will definitely be unlucky.

However, when the third young master was still the third young master, everyone in the Ou family dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out. Now that the tide has risen and all boats have risen, and they have become the emperor's husband and nine thousand years old, the Ou family even have the guts to be angry.

The second young master Qianmo, who had provoked his third brother not long ago, was so frightened that he wanted to run away overnight.The former Uncle Qingyang, and the present Marquis Cheng En are also frightened and restless.However, Mrs. Zhao, the mistress of the Ou family, was not in the mood to appease her son and husband, and hurriedly called her eldest son, Ou Qian, to discuss with him how to deal with it tomorrow, who must appear and who should disappear.

As soon as Ou Qian left the house, his wife, Qi Shi, called her daughter Ou Jing to her side, and told her to find a chance to mention the matter of entering the palace with Ouyang tomorrow.

Ou Jing's face turned cold when she heard this, and she refused impatiently: "I told you earlier that this is impossible, so don't dream about it!"

"What is impossible!" Qi Shi was also very angry, "I don't believe that your third uncle doesn't want a prince with the blood of the Ou family!"

"He just doesn't want it, believe it or not!" Ou Jing pushed back unceremoniously.

Ouyang even prepared the dowry for her, so how could he want to let her into the palace.Qi Yunheng dotes on Ouyang so much, as long as Ouyang throws out the word "No", even if the family members try their best to push her into the palace, Qi Yunheng will kick her back to Ouyang's house.

Besides, she's out of her mind, so why don't she stay in a decent courtroom and enter the palace to be the emperor's concubine?The emperor is still what she usually calls uncle!

But Qi Shi didn't give up so easily, and immediately changed his voice, and said again: "Even if you don't think about your third uncle, you should think about your brothers! Our family has no meritorious service and no connections. The title cannot be passed on. If there is no one in the palace, what will be left of our family when your third uncle leaves? Jinger, I beg you, please go to the palace, as long as you can give birth With a man and a half woman, the entire Ou family can rely on..."

"Since everything depends on me, my daughter, what's the use of your son if you want to die? Just strangle him!" Ou Jing was angry and annoyed, and she couldn't choose what to say for a while.

"You...how dare you say that!" Qi Shi was trembling with anger from her daughter, and raised her hand subconsciously, but she didn't slap her down.

Ou Jing has been the mistress of Ouyang's family for ten years, and she has developed both her courage and courage. At this moment, she is not afraid to look at her mother coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Even if you want to sell your daughter for glory, you must Only if people are willing to buy it, Your Majesty is not the one you mocked back then..."

Before she finished speaking, Ou Jing's expression changed, and she blurted out and asked, "You won't spread this kind of nonsense as the truth, will you?"

"I..." Qi Shi opened his mouth, but couldn't deny it.

Ou Jing's complexion became more and more ugly, ignoring the dispute between herself and her mother, she suddenly turned around and rushed out the door.
