The snow was falling, the cold wind was biting, and the land of the Northeast seemed to change the world overnight. The snow www.biquge.info the pen and the fun pavilion are covered with snow, and the pedestrians are filled with ice.

Heaven and earth were blank, and everywhere was white and white. In the vast expanse, thousands of miles of birds are uninhabited. However, there is a majestic city on the earth, as if a tiger is sleeping, and like a dragon is sleeping.

This is the newly built Shenyang City, the whole city covers an area of 400 square kilometers, if someone stands at the gate of the city and looks out, only to see the city wall stretching into the distance, there is no edge at all.

The weather in the northeast is very cold, so cold that people don't want to go out, but the city of Shenyang is wide open, and hundreds of people gather in the snow, their eyes are extremely proud.

"Look, that's the last red-clothed cannon, and it will be placed by our Hou Ye himself." A common man pointed to the high city wall and shouted loudly, excitedly: "I heard from the masters in the army, when the last cannon is loaded, the Hou Ye will send someone to throw copper coins on the city wall, tsk, tsk, I don't know how many ...... will be thrown."

Another young man next to him laughed and said: "Don't worry, the copper coins thrown today must be indispensable, 100,000 can't be stopped, 200,000 can't be stopped, I heard that the starting point is 300,000." ”

"Three... 300,000? The people's faces were full of shock, and they muttered: "There are only more than 300,000 people in the entire Shenyang City, and the Hou Ye threw so many copper coins at once, doesn't that mean that everyone can grab the consistent?" ”

The young man smiled and said proudly: "Our lord has always been generous, and he has been in a very good mood recently, so he will take advantage of the completion of the fort area today to reward the people of the city, so that he can have fun with the people." ”

"Spend 300,000 yuan just to have fun with the people? This is a little unlikely, isn't it......" The people obviously had some insight, and guessed carefully: "Could it be that the Hou Ye is making excuses again?" He must have seen the sudden arrival of heavy snow, and he was worried that the people would not be able to live, so he found an excuse to distribute the money. Is this doing good, but does it not want to embarrass us? ”

The young man laughed, suddenly patted him on the shoulder, and said with a red face: "Although your guess is very comfortable to hear, you have not guessed the facts. Let me tell you the truth, Mrs. Hou is pregnant with ......"

Before the words fell, I suddenly heard the sound of hula and footsteps around me, and a large group of people suddenly rushed up all around, all looking at the young man with bright eyes, and everyone gasped for breath.

"Master Hou is going to have an heir? Doesn't that mean that our descendants can also continue to enjoy happiness with the Hou family? Is this little brother, your news really true? Don't make up nonsense to fool us. ”

The young man sneered, with a look of anger on his face, and snorted, "I can make up nonsense? Nor do you look at who I am? We are surnamed Tian, and we are from Tianjiazhuang in the western suburbs of Chang'an......"

The people around him were at a loss, most of them didn't understand the meaning of these words, only the first person to speak had some insight, his eyes flashed quietly, and he said cautiously: "Your little brother's surname is Tian?" And is it still from Tianjiazhuang? Isn't that a village with our marquis? I'm a god, I can't see that you are still a fellow countryman! ”

"It's not just a fellow!" The young man became more and more angry, and said proudly: "My cousin is Tian Doudou, and she is the wife of the dignified Hou Ye, according to the seniority of the relatives, the Hou Ye still has to call me a cousin." ”

It turns out that this young man is Tian Ergou, although he has changed his bad habit of stealing chickens and touching dogs in recent years, he still has some vanity and face-loving problems in his bones.

The people were stunned for a moment, stunned for a long time and speechless, he looked Tian Ergou up and down, and said with some disbelief: "Look at your dress, it doesn't seem like a relative of Hou Ye." ”

Tian Ergou's face turned red, and he said angrily: "What's the matter?" My brother-in-law's big Hou Ye is still plainly dressed and does not talk about pomp. Hmph, to tell you the truth, this leather robe on my body was sewn by my cousin herself, and ordinary people are not qualified to pass it on if they want to wear it. ”

"It turned out to be Mrs. Hou's needlework? Awesome......" There was a sound of admiration all around.

Tian Ergou became proud again, and snorted: "My sister is kind-hearted, and I have been closest to me since I was a child. She saw that I had not yet married, and that I was alone all day, so she often made me a shirt. ”

The people around him are more and more envious!

Tut-tut, listen, Mrs. Hou's cousin is qualified to pass on the robe sewn by Mrs. Hou herself, this is a big man.

In ancient times, the common people were simple and had a natural awe and reverence for the court officials, and they were by no means the kind of hatred of officials and hatred of the rich in later generations.

Everyone around was envious and praised, only the first person to speak had a slight flash in his eyes, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled Tian Ergou, and said in a low voice: "This little brother, you haven't married yet?" ”

"What for?" Tian Ergou's eyes widened, and his face was a little uncomfortable. He is in his twenties this year, and in his early years, because his reputation was too ugly, coupled with the poverty of his family by stealing chickens and dogs, he did not marry a daughter-in-law for many years.

In the past two years, he has started slowly with Han Yue, but unfortunately for some reason, he has not been able to solve the matter of marriage, and he has been told several times by the media, but in the end, it is all over.

The people threw their hands at him, and said cautiously: "Brother Tian, my surname is Zhao, my name is Lingyun, a person from Hebei, I have four little sisters in my family, all of them are beautiful and beautiful, I just heard that you are not married, but you are willing to be a relative with me?" ”

"And such a good thing?" Tian Ergou's eyes lit up, and the harazi was about to flow down.

The man then said, "But I also have one condition, you can only choose one of my four little sisters, and the remaining three are not allowed to have bad intentions." I am poor and unable to take care of my little sister's food and clothing, so I hope you can introduce my little sister to work beside Hou Ye. It doesn't matter if you are tired or tired, but you have to serve Lord Hou or Mrs. Hou. ”

"Why is that?" Tian Ergou was a little puzzled.

"Because I don't want my sisters to be inferior slaves." Zhao Lingyun sighed gloomily and said in a low voice: "In the past, my Zhao family was also a big family, and I knew the darkness and dirtiness of the wealthy family. To be a slave is to be a slave to the master, because then no one can bully. If I become an inferior slave, I am afraid that I will be calculated with the beauty of my little sisters. ”

"Listen to what you mean, your little sister is very beautiful." Tian Ergou drooled a little.

Zhao Lingyun smiled proudly and said solemnly: "Not only is it beautiful, but also gentle and elegant, it is not my family's fault, those younger sisters are also qualified to be concubines for Hou Ye...... Forget it, don't mention it, now that my Zhao family is down, what's the use of saying this. ”

He glanced at Tian Ergou, and then said, "Have you thought about it?" Since ancient times, the eldest brother is like a father, as long as you are willing to agree, I, as an elder brother, can now write a marriage letter and help my sister and you make a marriage. ”

Tian Ergou swallowed his saliva and said, "I would like to, but your conditions are a bit outrageous." Let me tell you the truth, there is no shortage of people waiting around Hou Ye, a full twenty palace maids. ”

"Palace maid?" Zhao Lingyun was stunned.

"Yes, palace maids, all of them look like fairies, but they were ordered by the queen mother herself, nominally to take care of Princess Jinyang, but in fact they are taking care of her cousin-in-law's family."

"The status of the Marquis of Jingyang is so high?" Zhao Lingyun muttered.

Tian Ergou didn't hear clearly for a while, and subconsciously said, "What are you talking about?" ”

"Huh?" Zhao Lingyun was taken aback, and hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "At first glance, I heard that there were palace maids serving by the Hou Ye, and I felt it for a while, and I felt it for a while. Hehehe, don't blame Brother Tian, don't blame it. ”

Tian Ergou smiled disdainfully, and said, "You guy is really funny, what kind of character is my brother-in-law?" Deeply favored by His Majesty and the Empress, why is there any fuss about a few palace maids around him......"

"That's that!" Zhao Lingyun kept nodding, his eyes flickered slightly, and he continued to ask, "Can't you really let my sister do things?" I heard that the Hou Mansion was very kind to its subordinates, giving them three meals a day, and often giving out rewards. ”

"Pure nonsense!" Tian Ergou shook his hand, his face was full of veterans, and said: "My brother-in-law has never established the Hou Mansion, and he rarely uses subordinates, and the things in the family are generally done by a few daughters-in-law. If you are really busy, we have the people of Tianjiazhuang to help. ”

"I see!" Zhao Lingyun's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "But after all, it was before, but now it's different, Hou Ye's officials are getting bigger and bigger, how can there be a lack of subordinates around him?" Although the queen mother gave twenty palace maids, I guess it will definitely not be enough. ”

He gently pulled Tian Ergou and said in a low voice: "Brother Tian, why don't you go home with me to see a few little sisters, let's get married first." You are Mrs. Hou's cousin, once you go to my sister-in-law, then our Zhao family will also be related to Hou Ye, and then let the little sister enter the Hou Mansion to help, which is just right. ”

Tian Ergou scratched the door, looked at the city wall of Shenyang City, and saw a tall young figure debugging the cannon, he cautiously withdrew his gaze, and said with a serious face: "I can tell you first, if I fall in love with your sister, I will be serious about the dowry, and marry your sister into the door, I will never force you to marry your sister." ”

Zhao Lingyun laughed and said, "Naturally, you are the cousin of Master Hou, and you will definitely not do anything to force the people." ”

His words were completely in line with Tian Ergou's tone, and anyone who heard it felt very pleasant. Tian Ergou glanced at the city wall again, and said with some urgency: "Then let's go quickly, I will have to scatter copper coins later, I have received a big errand today, and I have to maintain order on the spot." ”

"Brother Tian, rest assured, my home is in the western district of Shenyang City, and it is a courtyard house given by the great grace of the Hou Ye. There are no outsiders in the house, only me and my four younger sisters live at present, let's speed up our walking, and we can come back after tea time. ”

Zhao Lingyun said this, slowly stopped, and said in a low voice: "If you go to which of my sisters, you can also stay and talk about it first, there are many empty houses at home, ......"

Tian Ergou's heart was pounding, and he gasped and said heavily: "That's not good, I have to come back to maintain order." ”
