Chapter 1018: First Strike is Stronger
On a midsummer night, there's nothing more pleasant than bringing the beauty of the river.
The moist and cold river breeze blew away Shangguan Wan'er's hair. A layer of fine sweat appeared on her soft skin, reflecting the moonlight, as bright as jade.
Xue Shao couldn't figure it out, why were Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er obsessed with riding on themselves and galloping?
Is it true that the saying that men conquer the world, and women conquer men?
At this time, Shangguan Wan'er no longer has the reserve and shyness of being in front of everyone during the day. She unreservedly shows her infatuated and wild side. She seems to want to vent all the emotions and love and hate that have been suppressed in her heart overnight.
As a result, the flood became a disaster.
She lay on Xue Shao's body, gasping for a long time.
Xue Shao pulled over a piece of clothing and covered her body.
She beat Xue Shao's face with both hands and kissed his lips for a long time.
"If you don't come back, I'll be martyred." Her voice was soft and sweet, like a dream, like a poem.
"Stupid." Xue Shao stroked her back, "I'm not dead, what are you martyring?" ”
"Looks like you really don't understand." Shangguan Wan'er kissed him and whispered in his ear, "That kind of lovesick torture is really going to kill people!" ”
"We won't be separated again." Xue Shao hugged her and patted her on the back to show comfort.
The corners of Shangguan Wan'er's lips and mouth quietly rose, and her eyes sparkled. With such an expression and such eyes, reflecting the moonlight, it is like a thousand-year-old fox demon who has achieved cultivation.
The fox demon said charmingly in Xue Shao's ear: "At least for now, you can't leave my body. ”
Xue Shao turned over and pressed her under him, smiling evilly, "I wanted to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade." ”
"I'd rather you ravage me hard...... Yes! ”
This ecstatic scream caused a burst of waterfowl to fly on the river.
The next day, Xue Shao was woken up by the heat. When I opened my eyes, I saw the scorching sun shining on my head. Shangguan Wan'er was still lying in the crook of her arm, sleeping soundly.
The two of them had a good time in the middle of the night, and they actually fell asleep on the deck.
Xue Shao was just about to get up and carry Shangguan Wan'er into the cabin, when she woke up. With an exclamation, she hurriedly pulled her clothes to cover her body.
"Don't be afraid, no one can see it." Xue Shao smiled, "I'll take you to the cabin to rest." ”
"Come on, hug me!" Shangguan Wan'er opened her arms to Xue Shao with her eyes worried.
Her clothes slipped off, and her perfect body was still more irritating than the summer sun.
Xue Shao immediately picked up her beloved beauty and walked into the cabin, it was impossible to rest, and the two were entangled together in a fascination.
"Didn't you make an appointment to go to Gong Ren's house as a guest today?" Shangguan Wan'er said while panting.
"It's still early. We could take a boat directly to his house. ”
"What kind of body is it to be so disheveled? Why don't you go home early and change your outfit? ”
"Leave this alone!"
"No...... Want...... Well......"
It was almost noon before Xue Shao returned to the Zhao State Mansion. Xue Shao originally wanted to take Guan Wan'er to Gong Ren's house with her, but she was tired. So Xue Shao left her in the Zhao Guogong Mansion to rest, changed his clothes and rode on a horse, and went to the house of Non Gongren.
After Gongren returned to the court, Wu Zetian not only gave him an official and a knight, but also rewarded him generously. In addition to gold money and beautiful slaves, there is also a magnificent mansion and a large area of fertile land.
For the new life in front of him, Gong Ren is completely blind. He didn't know how to spend his money, he didn't know what to do with his slaves, and he didn't know how to manage his large property. Therefore, Guo Yuanzhen's initiative to come to the door for a light meal yesterday was actually a big favor from the charcoal in the snow.
No, Guo Yuanzhen, Xue Chuyu and others came early in the morning, and they each brought their capable servants to help Gong Ren take care of the affairs of the family. Lou Shide was particularly attentive, and he also sent a trusted old housekeeper in his own family for many years, and since then he has been in charge of the housekeeping of the house for Gongren. Zhang Renyuan was a self-exalted substitute for Gong Ren, and went out with the officials of the household department to deal with the affairs of the land.
There is great power in numbers, not to mention that those who lend a helping hand are all well-known people in power. It only took half a day's work, and the matter of Gongren's "living and working in peace and contentment" was all done.
At this time, Xue Shao happened to arrive at Gongren's house.
Guo Yuanzhen was funny when he saw Xue Shao, "Big shots often appear last." It's time to get busy with everything big and small. ”
"That's no way, who called me a big shot." Xue Shao sneered at each other, "If you have the ability, you also climbed on top of me?" ”
Everyone laughed. On Gongren hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"On the general, don't listen to Guo Yuanzhen's nonsense." Xue Shao smiled, "I came late because I went to do something big." ”
"What's the big deal?" The crowd asked.
Xue Shao said with a smile: "When it comes to the general's dignified three-grade general, there is a lack of a lady who is the right person." If a big mansion is there, how can it be without a hostess? ”
Lou Shide smiled, "Having Xue Gong as a matchmaker for General Lu is a great joy!" ”
Guo Yuanzhen asked eagerly, "Which girl?" ”
"You want to care?" Xue Shao glanced at him and said to Gong Ren, "On the general, I don't know what kind of customs Tubo is. But since you have already lived in the Divine Capital, you have to enter the country and follow the customs. For you, the Imperial General, the matter of marrying is urgent, and it must not be too casual. ”
On Gongren blinked his eyes and bowed with his fists, "Then it's all up to Xue Gong." ”
"Interesting." Guo Yuanzhen said with a smile, "My marriage was personally arranged by Xue Gong back then. The two poles got married, and Xue Gong was also the matchmaker, and now it's the turn of the general! - It turns out that Xue Gong still has such a hobby of being a matchmaker? ”
"Why not be happy about the beauty of adults?" Xue Shao said with a smile, "On the general's noble birth, the official is of the third grade, and he must marry a woman who is the right person." I have an uncle who has now passed away and was once the prime minister of the previous dynasty. He had a daughter under his knees whom I had seen, gentle and virtuous, generous and decent, and now at the age of marriage, and born beautifully. If the general is interested, Xue is willing to make a trip for you and personally talk to the media. ”
The room full of people sighed "tsk", the clan uncle Xue Shao said was obviously the famous Tianwen Sect and Hedong Xue Yuanchao!
Now, although Xue Yuanchao has passed away, the lintel of the Xue family in Hedong is even more glorious because of Xue Shao's strong rise. Who can marry a woman from the Xue family, it is really a blessing from eight lifetimes of cultivation!
Although Gong Ren didn't know much about these portals and historical origins of the Central Plains, he could see from the envy of everyone that the marriage introduced by Xue Shao was definitely not simple. He thought for a moment and said, "As long as Her Majesty does not object, it will be pleased!" ”
Be enlightened!
Xue Shao secretly praised and said to Gong Ren: "Don't worry, the empress will not have an opinion on this kind of thing." But I do need to remind you that if you don't talk about marriage in advance, the empress may choose a martial daughter for you to be your wife in the future. At that time, you will be the son-in-law of the samurai family. Think about it! ”
As soon as Xue Shao said this, everyone reacted - there is indeed such a possibility!
Now it's up to you to decide how Gong Ren chooses!
On Gong Ren's first arrival, it is obviously impossible to gain insight into the dispute between Li Wu's factions above the court today. But he is not stupid, he is very aware that whether he agrees to Xue Shao to marry Xue Yuanchao's daughter now, or waits to marry the daughter of the martial family in the future, this is a major issue related to his choice of political position.
Everyone looked at Gong Ren and waited for his reply. Everyone also knows that as long as people are in the game, it is the truth that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop. Xue Shao, who is close to the water, doesn't make a move now, and sooner or later someone else will come to woo Gongren. Moreover, in all fairness, Xue Shao's move is above board enough compared to the methods of many big names. At the very least, he had already made it clear to him what was at stake.
"I listen to Xue Gong." On Gong Ren gave the answer.
Everyone sighed secretly. Xue Shao smiled relaxedly: "I'll go for a trip tomorrow." But there is news, and I will inform you immediately. ”
"There's Lao Xue Gong!"
After the banquet, Xue Shao returned to the Zhao State Mansion, and Shangguan Wan'er had already left, but left a message to the servants in the mansion, saying that she had gone home to accompany her mother.
Xue Shao thought about it, I have to take the time to take the initiative to solemnly go to meet Shangguan Wan'er's mother, Mrs. Zheng. This Zhao Guogong Mansion has always been empty, now I might as well renovate it and give it to Mrs. Zheng, as a gift of "acceptance" to marry Shangguan Wan'er.
This kind of thing, Xue Shao felt that he should go and talk to Princess Taiping, this was the least respect for her.
So Xue Shao returned home, and Princess Taiping seemed to have just arrived home, because the sword on Linlang's waist had not been lifted.
"Coming back? Just right! Princess Taiping beckoned to Xue Shao, "Come on, eat this medicinal food." ”
Xue Shao looked over and saw that my obedient, stewed deer whip.
"It's a hot day, isn't it okay to eat this?" Xue Shao's head was full of black lines.
"Eat it all!" Princess Taiping unceremoniously put on a straight face, "Otherwise, don't think about going out to play again in the future!" ”
Xue Shao coughed dryly and immediately devoured it.
"You're delicious, listen to me." Princess Taiping smiled with satisfaction and said, "I went to the palace and successfully got you an official position from my mother. Guess what? ”
"Captain?"
Princess Taiping frowned, "You are really boring!" ”
Xue Shao put down the bowl and spoon and laughed, "During the Qin and Han dynasties, Taiwei used to be the highest official in charge of the military, but now he is only a vacant and additional official. At the moment, I can't think of any other official position suitable for me except the captain! ”
"That's right, it's the Captain." Princess Taiping said, "Although this is a false position, it is a real product." From now on, you will be one of the three respected princes. This is worthy of your merits and status! ”
"Well, you have the final say on these things!" Xue Shao smiled, "I want to tell you another thing, happy event. ”
"What's the matter, the marriage with Shangguan Wan'er has been negotiated?" Princess Taiping asked.
"It's not." Xue Shao said, "I want to invite you to visit Xue Yuanchao's eldest son Xue Qian, to tell Gongren about a family affair, and to marry Xue Yuan's sister-in-law who has not left the cabinet." ”
"It's a good thing, I'll go!" Princess Taiping smiled happily, "Xue Lang, you finally did a serious job!" ”
Xue Shao pursed his lips, "Look at what you said, what kind of thing did I do, not the right thing?" ”
"No, I did it all night last night!" Princess Taiping said coldly, "Hurry up and eat all the bowls, there is still half an urn over there, and not a drop is allowed to be left." Otherwise, in the future, I will call Linlang to torture you until dawn every night, and see if you still have the strength to go out and play?! ”
