The imperial brother kneels and begs me to marry my daughter-in-law

Changping, the capital of Zhao State.In the evening, the streets are full of bustling crowds.

This is the most prosperous capital city in the world today.Relying on Zhao's superior geographical location and business environment.Businessmen from all over the world gather here.Here, you can buy almost everything that can be bought in the five countries.

Lin Xiu is very familiar with this place.This is where she often comes to.On weekdays in Linglong Valley, when she was bored, she would come down the mountain to eat, drink and drink here, gaining popularity.After all, it was too deserted on the mountain.

And because the transportation was not so convenient in ancient times, it was a day's journey to go anywhere.If you rush to another country, ten days and half a month is very common, which is too torture for Lin Xiu.So she didn't leave Zhao country often these years.Knowing the world's information depends on the collection and delivery of your own shops.

When he came to Changping, Lin Xiu was going to the largest and most famous restaurant here——Naihelou.That is, Lin Xiu's own industry.

The carriage drove all the way to the gate of Naihe Tower.Naihe Building has four floors, which is unique in Changping Capital, where most of the buildings are two-story.The golden lacquer flat at the door is written with the elegant word "Naihe".It is said that these two characters were specially asked by the shop owner to ask He Lao, a master of calligraphy today, to write them.

Lin Xiu took Xiao Jiu out of the carriage, and saw that Xiao Shu'an and Ru Feng had also got off the carriage.Lin Zhong walked fast on horseback. He had already arrived at the restaurant one step ahead of time, booked a room, and told the shopkeeper not to treat Lin Xiu and himself as the boss, but to pretend that they didn't know each other.

"Mr. Xiao, it's getting late today. Why don't we stay in Changping for a day and leave for Ganzhou tomorrow? I'm afraid the journey will be very tiring. Let's take a good rest before setting off." Lin Zhong knew that Xiao Shu'an was afraid He wanted to rush back to the state of Zhou without stopping for a moment, but he also knew that Lin Xiu had been working on a carriage for a day, so he never wanted to continue on his way.

Looking at Lin Xiu's temperament, Xiao Shu'an probably guessed that this is a person with delicate skin and tender flesh who can't suffer much.Even if you want something from someone, you can only bite the bullet and agree.

"It all depends on Ah Zhong's arrangement."

"Mr. Xiao, I know you are anxious, but in life, enjoyment is also a compulsory course. You can't only endure hardships, but also enjoy them. Follow me along the way. I must teach you this." Lin Xiu looked at Xiao Shuan When he regained his serious face, he knew that this person was worried again.

"Probably because you and I have different fates. I don't have such a good life as the son. I was born in a crumbling royal family, and the country is about to disappear. How can I enjoy myself comfortably?"

The two walked into the lobby of Naihe Building while talking.When they got off the carriage, the doorman standing at the door of the restaurant had already led it to the stable.Naihe's service is like this, there are always two servants standing at the door.When a guest comes, he bows and says 'Welcome'.Guests with horses and luggage will help arrange it.The service is absolutely top notch.

After entering the hall, the servant will lead the guests to their room.

"Mr. Xiao, don't be so pessimistic. It's all about human effort, 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. Zhou Guo is not good now, but it doesn't mean it will always be bad. What do you think?" Lin Xiu said leisurely, waving her fan.

Xiao Shu'an was puzzled, but Lin Xiu always liked to swing a fan around when the weather was not hot.But it also fits her sloppy personality.

"I don't believe in myself, but I believe in Xiu'er."

Xiao Shuan's words made Lin Xiu stunned on the stairs.Even Xiao Shuan, who led her up the stairs behind her, also stopped.

Don't call me Xiu'er in the early days, and don't call me Xiu'er in the evening.This sudden call...

"Brother Xiao, you are really pragmatic." Lin Xiu continued to go up the stairs, "When you ask me for something, I think of calling you 'Xiu'er'. I haven't seen you call me 'Xiuer' all day."

"If you like, I can call you every day. It's just that Xiu'er, if you leave Zhou Guo in the future, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to call you again." Xiao Shu'an found that Lin Xiu would be a little shy every time she said something intimate, and she wasn't as carefree as usual. It made her want to tease.It's not like her usual seriousness at all.

"Don't! I'm afraid of you. Brother Xiao, we are still good friends if you don't mention whether you will leave Zhou Guo. You always mention that I always have a feeling that I am on a thief ship and I can't get off. You won't kidnap and sell me?" Lin Xiu pretended to be terrified.Lin Zhong and Xiao Jiu were amused.

"It's not abducted, but it's very possible to be detained. Mr. Xiao is so handsome, he might be taken by my Princess Zhou, and it's possible to be detained and become a concubine." Xiao Shu'an made a rare joke.

"My God! Brother Xiao, you are also a joker! I see you looking so serious every day, I thought you only had that one face~ Unexpectedly, you still have two faces~" Lin Xiu drove Xiao Shuan joke.

However, Xiao Shu'an slowly lost the smile on the corner of his mouth.There are serious faces every day, is this yourself?Thinking back, when she was a child, when her father was still there, she was also carefree.I only care about eating, drinking and having fun every day, and the biggest thing is to finish my daily homework.For other things, the father is responsible.

Later, when she was only 13 years old, her father passed away.Only she and her 17-year-old brother were left.The court in the middle of the country is chaotic, and it is not easy for the emperor to stabilize the regime. He also has to face constant harassment from the barbarians and Zhao Guowu.

In recent years, although there have been no very large-scale wars.However, small and medium-sized wars do continue year after year.The treasury, which was not rich at all, has bottomed out.The life of the people is also very difficult.The current state of Zhou can no longer withstand a major war.Yes, I am afraid that the country will perish.But the weaker you are, the more you will be bullied.

Living in an environment where the country is on the verge of ruin every day, how can she be happy?

After Lin Xiu finished speaking, seeing the change in Xiao Shuan's expression, she realized that she might have said something wrong.What Xiao Shuan said was right, people are different.The hardest days for Lin Xiu were just when she had just traveled over.But there is no life-and-death crisis, at most it is poorer, because she has Ah Zhong.

Lin Xiu wanted to say something, but didn't know how to speak.Just then, they arrived.

"My lord, your rooms have arrived. There are five rooms in total, with Tian Zi No. [-] to [-]. I will send some snacks from our shop to you later. I wish you a happy stay."

"Okay, thank you." Lin Xiu thanked the servant, then turned to look at Xiao Shu'an, ready to divide the room.However, he found that Xiao Shu'an had adjusted his expression and returned to his previous tough and unyielding appearance.

"Brother Xiao, which one do you want to live in? I can do either." Lin Xiu asked Xiao Shu'an to choose first.

"Do we need a room for each of us? Rufeng and I can share one. So many rooms, isn't it too wasteful?" Although Xiao Shu'an is a member of the royal family, the state of Zhou has been fighting wars all year round, and the treasury is tight.Even the royal family has always been very frugal.She is not used to such a wasteful style.

These five rooms are the top floor of Naihe, and there are only ten rooms in total.I'm afraid the price is not cheap.The last time she came here was when she overheard the conversation between Lin Xiu and Prince Zhao Guo.If she hadn't come here to inquire about some news, she probably wouldn't have entered such a luxurious restaurant.

Lin Zhong saw that Xiao Shu'an had concerns, and persuaded him: "It's okay, Mr. Xiao, it's more convenient for one person to share one room. Here..."

"It's okay." Lin Xiu interrupted Ah Zhong. "Mr. Xiao is so convenient. Five rooms are a bit of a waste. It's not bad for two people to share one room. It's just that I don't sleep well. So no one wants to sleep with me. I thought Mr. Xiao was the same as me." , since it’s not, it’s best for the two of you to share one room.”

Lin Xiu understands that everyone has their own concerns.She can pursue a luxurious life, but she doesn't have to impose a burden on others.She still has the ability to empathize.

Lin Zhong didn't understand why Lin Xiu said that, but he didn't say anything more.Looking at Rufeng, he has been looking at everything since he entered the building, and his eyes reveal novelty, which is really cute.

"Thank you Xiu'er for your understanding."

"You're welcome, let's fix it first. Go to the private room on the second floor for dinner in an hour?"

The first floor of Naihe is the lobby, which is for dine-in individual diners.The second floor is a private room.Available for guests who require privacy.The third and fourth floors are accommodation.Naihe's main building has four floors.There are two two-story auxiliary buildings on both sides that communicate with the main building.So in fact, the place to eat is much larger than the place to stay.

"Okay, I'll go down on time."

The two sides entered the room respectively, and Lin Xiu immediately collapsed on the bed.After riding in a carriage all day, her butt can't take it anymore.

Xiao Jiu thoughtfully brought a glass of water to Lin Xiu.Lin Zhong sat down, poured himself a glass of water, and said, "I have news from Zhou Guo today."

"Is the State of Zhao going to send troops to the State of Zhou?" Lin Xiu asked after drinking her saliva.

"Hey, as expected, nothing is as Xiu'er expected. Yes, it's exactly what you said. It is said that the army is almost at the East City."

Dongcheng is the border between Zhou State and Zhao State.I don't know who Xiao She is.

"Don't care about them." Lin Xiu felt that it was not time for her to make a move.

After an hour, Lin Xiu and Xiao Shu'an came to the second floor for dinner on time.It was slowly getting dark.Suddenly, the boy from the restaurant entered the private room and handed a letter to Xiao Shu'an.Xiao Shuan quickly opened the letter, and after reading just a few lines, Xiao Shuan's expression was extremely ugly.

Seeing Xiao Shuan's performance, Lin Xiu probably guessed what was going on.Xiao Shu'an didn't speak, and Lin Xiuben didn't intend to help.For a moment, the five people were silent and could only hear the sound of bowls and chopsticks.

The quiet air made Lin Xiu's ears sensitive.She heard someone take a seat in the private room next door.The creaking sound of the chair being pulled was very sharp.She imagined that this person was either not well-bred, or he was angry and took a chair to vent.

Sure enough, the following conversation confirmed her conjecture.

"Your Highness, if you ask me, this Lin Xiu really doesn't know how to flatter. At that time, King Man Rong surrounded His Majesty, but he just thought of some way to get out of the way. Now it's really inflated." Zhao Duan and Zhao Fen came down from Guanshan, holding back all the way on fire.

"Hmph, let Zhao Guo send gold, silver and jewelry to the concubine of the Manrong King. Tell the concubine that if you don't help, Zhao Guo will have to pay tribute to beauties year after year, and her status will not be guaranteed. Let the concubine blow the pillow Feng. Although this kind of indiscriminate means saved my father from danger, it also made Zhao Guo lose face. Father doesn't care, he really takes himself seriously."

Snapped!

Zhao Duan slammed the teacup on the table.Demeanor is just a deliberate display of Zhao Duan's hypocrisy.Once he felt offended, he would be as hot-tempered and vicious as he is now.

"Your Highness, then you still said to let him come to you in the future." Zhao Fen was puzzled.

"Hey." Zhao Duan sneered, "If he doesn't come to me, how can I take revenge?"

Lin Xiu and the others listened verbatim to the conversation between the two people next door.Lin Zhong was so angry that he clenched his fists. If Lin Xiu hadn't held down his hand just now, he would have rushed over to beat that man up.He doesn't care about whether the prince is not the prince.

Xiao Jiu looked at Lin Xiu with concern, worried that she would be unhappy.

Lin Xiu looked at the two people opposite, and found that Xiao Shuan and Rufeng were also paying attention to her reaction.

"Hey, look at what I do? Is the meal ready?"

The four were silent, and no one answered Lin Xiu.They thought that Lin Xiu must be very sad.But it seems that Lin Xiu is not, she seems to be fine.

Lin Xiu suddenly made a decision in her heart.She asked Xiao Shu'an: "You received the letter just now. It seems that you have encountered some problems. Do you need my help?"

The author has something to say:

Lin Xiu: It's not that I covet Xiao Shu'an's beauty, it's that he, Zhao Duan, is forcing me!
