Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 329 The county magistrate's husband

In the evening, as soon as Wu Bai returned to Wu's residence, he was stopped by Fang Huayuan.

"What's the matter with you?" Wu Bai asked.

"Today, a matchmaker came to the door to say goodbye to the adults." Fang Huayuan replied.

Hearing this answer, Wu Bai was a little surprised, he thought Fang Huayuan was going to ask him about medical books.

"And then? How did father and mother refuse?" Wu Bai asked.

Fang Huayuan was full of surprise and said, "How does your lord know that uncle and aunt have rejected the matchmaker's marriage proposal for you?"

"Because I am the same as you." Wu Bai confessed.

"What? My lord, you, you are..." Fang Huayuan's jaw almost fell to the ground in shock.

Wu Bai nodded, and then said to him: "Okay, let's go in, father and mother should be waiting for me!"

"Uncle and aunt are indeed waiting for you." Fang Huayuan nodded.

The two walked into the hall, and Wu's mother got up and said, "You're back."

"Well, father and mother have something to say to me?" Wu Bai said.

Wu's father glanced at Wu's mother, then waved his hand to screen off the servants, then he looked at Fang Huayuan and said, "Boy Fang, we have something to talk to Bai'er, can you stay away for a while?"

Fang Huayuan understood what they were going to say, and he left the hall as he said.

After he left, Wu Bai took the lead and said, "Father and mother want to talk about my real identity?"

Wu's father and Wu's mother looked at Wu Bai in surprise, and asked, "You know?"

Wu Bai raised his hand and tapped the red mole between his eyebrows, and said, "I know."

Seeing this, Wu's father and Wu's mother realized that Wu Bai really knew the identity of his younger brother, Wu's father asked: "Then do you blame us for hiding your identity?"

"No, I know that my father and mother want to save my life, so how can I blame you." Wu Bai replied.

Wu's mother's eyes turned red immediately, and tears rolled in her eyes. She cried, "For so many years, we have been struggling with how to tell you the truth, and I am afraid that you will blame us... woo woo..."

Wu Bai hurriedly hugged her, and comforted her: "The mother has worried all these years, it is the child who is not filial."

"Woooooooo..."

After a while, Wu's mother finally calmed down. She wiped away her tears and smiled. Wu's father hugged her and said, "Okay, I told you a long time ago that Bai'er will understand our difficulties. Get better!"

"Hmm." Mother Wu nodded repeatedly.

After comforting Wu's mother, Wu Bai said again: "I heard that the matchmaker came today and wants to marry me?"

Father Wu said, "We have already sent her away."

"This is not a long-term solution. If there is a matchmaker next time, my mother will just say that I will never marry a wife!" Wu Bai confessed.

"But what about your future marriage?" Father Wu asked worriedly.

The couple didn't think too much at the beginning, they just wanted to keep their child alive. Now that the child has grown up, they didn't realize that Wu Bai's marriage is difficult until today when the matchmaker came to the door.

"Father, mother, I already have someone I like in my heart. We admire each other, so you don't have to worry about my marriage." Wu Bai replied.

"Who is it?" Father Wu asked.

"His identity is quite special, I can't tell you for the time being." Wu Bai shook his head and said.

"..." Wu's father and Wu's mother looked at each other, finally sighed, and said, "Well, since you can't tell, we won't ask for now."

"Thank you, Mom and Dad, for your understanding." Wu Bai said gratefully.

The three of them completely disclosed Wu Bai's identity, and Wu's father and mother's heart was completely relieved. They walked out of the hall and went to the dining room for dinner.

After dinner, Fang Huayuan said to Wu Bai: "My lord, I have something to say to you."

Wu Bai nodded, got up and followed him out of the dining hall.

Wu's mother looked at the backs of the two of them, and with a thought, she guessed: "You think the person Bai'er likes is Fang Boy?"

"Probably not, I didn't see that Bai'er likes Fang boy." Father Wu shook his head.

"Is that so?" Mother Wu muttered.

"Okay, if it's Boy Fang, Bai'er might tell us directly, there's no need to hide it, so don't make wild guesses." Father Wu waved his hand.

After hearing this, Wu's mother still didn't let go of her doubts completely, but she didn't say anything.

The next day, Wu Bai sorted out the notebooks in his hand, took them into the palace, and came to the imperial study.

When Xiao Zimo saw him, joy flashed in his eyes, he stood up happily and asked Wu Bai for credit: "Did you listen to what I said in the early court today, and came to the palace to see me?"

"Morning court?" Wu Bai asked with a puzzled face, "What did His Majesty say during the morning court?"

"You don't know?" Xiao Zimo suddenly asked with a depressed face.

"Your Majesty can tell me now." Wu Bai said in time.

"Ahem..." Xiao Zimo cleared his throat and said, "I personally rejected the draft in the court hall."

After saying this, he looked at Wu Bai with wide eyes, revealing a look of longing for praise.

Hearing this, Wu Bai immediately kissed Xiao Zimo on tiptoe, and said: "Your Majesty did a good job!"

Xiao Zimo couldn't help but blushed, he said: "I want to make Wu Aiqing the male queen, but I don't know if Wu Aiqing can agree?"

"Your Majesty is not afraid of the opposition of the ministers?" Wu Bai asked back.

"I am the Ninth Five-Year Lord, if they object, they will resist the decree!" Xiao Zimo said sharply.

Seeing his determination, Wu Bai felt warm in his heart, but he still comforted him: "Your Majesty don't need to be so impatient, this matter can be solved slowly."

"Okay, I listen to Wu Aiqing." Xiao Zimo said while holding Wu Bai's hand.

The two leaned together and chatted for a while, Wu Bai got up and cupped his hands and said, "I'm going to the imperial hospital to read medical books, and your majesty is also going to review the memorial, so I'll leave first."

"You wait first." Xiao Zimo held him back, and then said to the door: "Come here."

Soon the prince pushed the door open and entered, and said, "What is your majesty's order?"

"What medical book are you reading? I asked Wang Quan to fetch it for you, and you can read it in the imperial study." Xiao Zimo said to Wu Bai.

Wu Bai smiled helplessly, and told Wang Gonggong the title of the medical book he hadn't read before.

After Wang Quan got the order, he left the imperial study room and went to the imperial hospital. Under the guidance of the imperial physician, he took the medical books and rushed back to the imperial study room again.

"Master Wu is talking about this medical book?" Eunuch Wang asked.

"Exactly, thank you, Eunuch Wang." Wu Bai said after taking the medical book.

"This is what a slave should do. I will leave." The prince voluntarily withdrew from the imperial study again.

After he left, Xiao Zimo took Wu Bai to sit behind the imperial case. While he was reviewing the memorial, he turned his head to look at Wu Bai from time to time, and he felt extremely satisfied.

Suddenly, he found two special notes.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that his movements were different, Wu Bai raised his head and asked.

"These two notebooks were sent by Qiu Guo and Dayang Kingdom." Xiao Zimo handed the two notebooks to Wu Bai for reading.

Wu Bai nodded and said: "That's right, both the princes of the Qiu Kingdom and the fifth princes of the Dayang Kingdom want to marry Shun and conclude a good relationship between Qin and Jin. According to the time in the brochure, they should have reached the border of Shun."

"Does Wu Aiqing understand these two people?" Xiao Zimo asked.

"I don't know much about Prince Qiu, Yuan Yu, but the Kingdom of Qiu has always respected martial arts. This prince must have extraordinary skills."

"As for the fifth prince of Dayang Kingdom, Mu Haoxun, his mother is a noble concubine, and his family is very powerful in Dayang Kingdom. He almost became the crown prince, but Mu Haoyan took the throne, so he will be the crown prince. By chance, Mu Haoyan was defeated and captured in the border town not long ago. Dayang Kingdom ceded the three cities to redeem Mu Haoyan. This caused Mu Haoyan's subordinates to be suppressed wantonly. They wanted Emperor Yang to abolish the crown prince and establish another worthy man, and the five princes suddenly went to Shun as an envoy to marry him, presumably they were planning to win over Shun and help him ascend to the position of crown prince." Wu Bai analyzed.

"Wu Aiqing's analysis is reasonable, so do you think I should agree to their conditions?" Xiao Zimo asked.

Wu Bai shook his head and said: "This minister is just guessing, Your Majesty might as well wait for them to enter Beijing before making a decision."

Xiao Zimo hugged Wu Bai tightly, and said with a smile: "Then I will listen to Wu Aiqing."

Three months later

Yuan Yu, the prince of Qiu, and Mu Haoxun, the fifth prince of Dayang, arrived in the capital one after another. Qin Tianhua also came to the capital at the same time, and he was the one who escorted the people of Dayang Kingdom to the capital.

After he sent the man to the post station in the capital, he rushed to Wu's mansion. At that time, Wu Bai was checking Fang Huayuan's pulse.

When Qin Tianhua entered the door, he happened to see this scene, but in his direction, he only saw Wu Bai and Fang Huayuan's hands interacting. Suddenly, he widened his eyes and looked at Wu Bai and Fang Huayuan in disbelief. .

Wu Bai stood up and asked, "Little General, why are you here?"

Qin Tianhua withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes and said, "I will escort the Fifth Prince of Dayang Kingdom and others to Beijing."

"I see." Wu Bai nodded, and quickly called his servants to serve Qin Tianhua tea.

"No need." Qin Tianhua shook his head and refused, then he looked up at Fang Huayuan and asked, "Can I talk to you alone?"

Fang Huayuan nodded and said, "Yes."

Then the two left the hall and went to the garden.

"What do you want to say?" Fang Huayuan asked.

"You said earlier that you already have someone you like, but that person is Wu Bai?" Qin Tianhua asked Fang Huayuan, looking closely into his eyes.

Hearing this, Fang Huayuan was taken aback for a moment, then he avoided Qin Tianhua's eyes and replied, "That's right, it's Mr. Wu."

"Then is he interested in you?" Qin Tianhua asked persistently.

"How do you think my lord treats me?" Fang Huayuan didn't answer his question directly.

As soon as these words came out, Qin Tianhua was dumbfounded, he couldn't say a word 'no'.

"That's all. Does the little general have anything else to ask?" Fang Huayuan raised his eyes and asked.

Qin Tianhua smiled and said, "I don't have anything to ask, as long as you live well."

Seeing Fang Huayuan coming back alone, Wu Bai asked, "Where is Little General Qin?"

"He has already gone back." Fang Huayuan replied.

"Okay!" Wu Bai saw that Fang Huayuan's complexion was not good, so he didn't continue to say anything, and only asked him to go back and have a rest.

.........

Wu Bai went to the palace in a carriage to attend the banquet, which was specially ordered by Xiao Zimo to welcome the envoys from the two countries.

At the gate of the palace, just as Wu Bai got off the carriage, he saw Qin Tianhua walking towards him.

"Master Wu, why not enter the palace together." Qin Tianhua invited.

"Yes." Wu Bai nodded.

After the two walked for a while, Qin Tianhua couldn't help but said, "I really envy Master Wu!"

Wu Bai looked at him in surprise, and asked, "What do you envy me for?"

"It's nothing." Qin Tianhua shook his head. After a while, he looked at Wu Bai seriously and said, "I don't know if Mr. Wu will always treat him well?"

"Him?" Wu Bai was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that the person Qin Tianhua was talking about was Fang Huayuan, so he nodded and said, "I will definitely treat him well! Why did the little general suddenly mention this?"

Qin Tianhua closed his eyes and said, "Since Mr. Wu said so, then I will believe it."

"Little general, forgive me for saying too much, some things cannot be easily given up. If you really want to, you should grasp it in time, so as not to regret it later." Wu Bai secretly reminded.

"What does Master Wu mean by saying this?" Qin Tianhua looked at Wu Bai in puzzlement, he always felt that there was something in Wu Bai's words.

Wu Bai was about to reply when suddenly there was a sound of gnashing of teeth from his left.

"Wu Aiqing—"

Xiao Zimo walked towards Wu Bai and Qin Tianhua with an unhappy face.

"See Your Majesty." Qin Tianhua hurriedly saluted.

"Stay flat." Xiao Zimo raised his hand and said, "I have something important to discuss with Wu Aiqing, Qin Qing can leave on her own."

Hearing this, Qin Tianhua folded his hands and left.

Wu Bai couldn't help laughing at Xiao Zimo who looked like he was jealous.

Thinking of Xiao Yueke saying that Wu Bai liked Qin Tianhua in his previous life, Xiao Zimo looked at Wu Bai dangerously, gritted his teeth and said, "Is there nothing Wu Aiqing wants to say to me?"

"Little General Qin and I are old acquaintances, His Majesty knows about it." Wu Bai spread his hands.

"I know, but you were too close just now!" Xiao Zimo huffed.

Seeing this, Wu Bai hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will definitely stay ten feet away from him in the future."

Hearing Wu Bai's assurance, Xiao Zimo became happy.

The two talked for a while, seeing that the time was about the same, Wu Bai hurriedly entered the hall first, found his seat in the corner according to his official position and sat down, and not long after that, Xiao Zimo stepped into the hall.

"Your Majesty is here!" the prince shouted.

Everyone in the hall quickly knelt down: "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

Xiao Zimo walked through the main hall, walked to the top, turned to everyone and said, "Everyone loves you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone got up and sat down again.

"The envoys of Xuanqiu and Dayang are here~" Wang Gonggong shouted to the outside of the hall.

"The envoys of Xuanqiu Kingdom and Dayang Kingdom have an audience~" The eunuch outside the main hall passed on the order.

After a while, a tall and strong man and another handsome man walked into the hall. They stopped in the middle of the hall.

The two saluted to Xiao Zimo: "Qiu Guo Yuan Yu/Da Yang Guo Mu Haoxun has seen His Majesty Shun, long live His Majesty!"

"The two envoys have come from a long way, thank you for your hard work." Xiao Zimo said, "Two envoys, please sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." After the two answered, they found their seats and sat down.

Then, Prince Qiu stood up first and said, "The purpose of the little king's coming here is to marry the princess of Shun and conclude a peace treaty between the two countries. I hope that His Majesty Shun will agree to the request of the little king."

Xiao Zimo replied with a smile: "The prince came from a long way, and he must not have had time to taste Shun's fine wine. You might as well sit down and taste it. As for the marriage, we can discuss it later."

Seeing that Xiao Zimo did not agree to his request, Yuan Yu frowned, but after thinking about it, there was really no need to rush this matter, so he folded his hands and sat down.

Just as he sat down, Mu Haoxun stood up again and said, "Your Majesty, our country has a great gift for His Majesty."

"What big gift?" Xiao Zimo asked.

Mu Haoxun raised his hands and clapped. After a while, a woman in scarlet clothes and a tulle face slowly walked in from outside the hall.

"Your Majesty, this is your imperial sister Mu Qin, she is the number one beauty in Dayang." Mu Haoxun introduced.

Mu Qin bent slightly and said, "Mu Qin has seen His Majesty."

Xiao Zimo looked up, his eyes turned slightly, and then he said, "Take off the veil and let me see?"

As soon as these words came out, a gleam of joy flashed in Mu Haoxun's eyes, and all the ministers around stretched their necks to look at Mu Qin's face.

Wu Bai, who was sitting in the crowd, glanced at Xiao Zimo's direction, and thought to himself: Is this jealous jar still fussing over the matter just now?

"Yes." Mu Qin took off the veil according to his words.

As the veil was lifted, there were bursts of inhalation sounds in the hall.

"Okay! Good! It really is a country and a city!" Xiao Zimo was full of admiration.

When Mu Qin heard this, her face turned reddish, which further complemented her national beauty.

Mu Haoxun thought to himself, "At least this trip was not in vain."

"Come here, give the princess a seat." Xiao Zimo ordered, he thought for a while, and then said, "Put the princess's seat at my side."

After a while, the palace man placed the seat beside Xiao Zimo.

Mu Qin said shyly and timidly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me the seat." After saying this, she stepped up and sat on the chair next to Xiao Zimo.

Wu Bai below saw this scene, his forehead was full of black lines, what is Xiao Zimo planning to do!

Down below, Yuan Yu saw Xiao Zimo treating Mu Qin differently, and he secretly regretted that he should bring a princess to Shun as well, but the image of his sister flashed in his mind, and then he looked at Mu Qin above Qin, couldn't help but sighed, it couldn't be compared!

All the courtiers in the hall, everyone, look at me, I look at you, a little joy flashed in their eyes, as long as the emperor takes this Princess Dayang into the harem, then they will have the opportunity to take their daughter sent to the palace.

After everyone enjoyed the singing and dancing, Xiao Zimo took Mu Qin and left first.

After he left, the ministers also left one after another.

Mu Haoxun walked up to Yuan Yu and said, "Would the prince be willing to go out of the palace together?"

Yuan Yu glanced at Mu Haoxun coldly, then shook his sleeves and left angrily. Mu Haoxun was not angry about this, he understood why Yuan Yu would be angry.

The Qiu Kingdom and the Dayang Kingdom came to Shun at the same time, and both countries wanted to marry Shun. Now Emperor Shun declined Prince Qiu's proposal, but treated the princess sent by Dayang differently. angry.

Taking advantage of the crowd and no one paying attention to him, Wu Bai quietly followed Xiao Zimo and Mu Qin.

He had a gold medal from Xiao Zimo, but his journey went smoothly, and no one dared to stop him.

Xiao Zimo took Mu Qin to the Royal Garden for a stroll, and then told the prince, "Take the princess back to the station."

The prince was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, and said to Mu Qin, "Princess, please!"

Mu Qin also looked at Xiao Zimo in surprise and asked, "What does your Majesty mean?"

"The princess's body is a thousand pieces of gold. She must be tired after coming a long way. Why don't you go back and rest earlier?" Xiao Zimo replied.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding." Mu Qin thought Xiao Zimo was worried about her body, so she said gratefully.

"Go!" Xiao Zimo waved his hand.

"Mu Qin resigns."

After she finished speaking, she followed the prince and left the palace.

Xiao Zimo shouted not far behind: "Come out!"

Wu Bai walked towards Xiao Zimo slowly, he said angrily, "Does Your Majesty want to expand the harem?"

"Yes! I really want to expand my harem." Xiao Zimo picked up Wu Bai, walked into the bedroom, put him on the bed, and asked in a low voice, "Are you willing to expand my harem?"

"You only pretend to be me in this harem, and I'll come." Wu Bai said while leaning against his chest.

Xiao Zimo smiled lightly: "Hahaha... don't worry, my harem can only accommodate you alone!"

Wu Bai bit him domineeringly, and said, "Are you coming or not?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Zimo couldn't bear it any longer, and stretched out his hand to put down the dragon tent, and the lights in the room blazed, overlapping the two figures on the tent.

Palace station

Mu Haoxun saw off Eunuch Wang, he looked at Mu Qin and asked, "Why are you back?"

Mu Qin's face was slightly red, and he replied: "Your Majesty took pity on my body and specially asked me to come back to rest."

Hearing this, Mu Haoxun heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "So that's the case, then you should go and rest earlier!"

"Yes, Brother Huang." Mu Qin replied.

Wu Bai did not return from the palace banquet, Wu's father and mother were very worried, Fang Huayuan asked his servants, and the other party replied that Wu Bai had not left the palace, and he came back by himself when he saw the palace gate was closed.

Fang Huayuan thought for a while and said to Father Wu and Mother Wu: "Uncle and Auntie, don't worry too much. I'll go to the General's Mansion to inquire about the situation. General Qin should also enter the palace today."

"Okay." Wu's father and Wu's mother nodded.

General House

When Qin Tianhua heard what the concierge said, he immediately stood up and asked, "Who are you talking about?"

"It's a young master named Fang Huayuan." The porter replied.

"Invite him to come in quickly." Qin Tianhua ordered.

"Yes," replied the porter.

"Forget it, I'll go by myself." Qin Tianhua hurried to the front of the mansion, and he saw Fang Huayuan outside the mansion at a glance. For some reason, he always felt that Fang Huayuan looked much thinner.

Hearing footsteps, Fang Huayuan turned around hastily. He thought he would see the porter, but he didn't expect to see Qin Tianhua himself.

Thinking of his purpose of coming to the General's Mansion, Fang Huayuan asked: "Your Excellency went to the palace to attend a banquet, but has not returned yet, do you know the reason?"

As soon as these words came out, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on Qin Tianhua's head, he replied in a low voice: "I did see Wu Bai when I entered the palace, but I didn't see him when I left the palace."

Fang Huayuan nodded and said, "Thank you for letting me know."

After saying this, he was about to turn around and leave, but Qin Tianhua held his arm, and he turned his head and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

Qin Tianhua let go of his arms and said, "I'm fine, but I can help you find him together."

"...Okay." Fang Huayuan nodded.
