After about an hour, Yuan Zinuo's heart ached for Ouyang Xu. She raised her head carefully and moved to Qi Yunru's side pitifully. She tugged at her elegant white sleeves and said," Father, please spare Ouyang Xu. This kind of thing can't be done with two palms. Besides, we're getting married anyway. Don't be calculative!"”
Qi Yunru raised her head to look at her daughter and sighed. It was said that a grown woman could not be kept. He had only punished Ouyang Xu a little, and her daughter was already unhappy. He looked at Ouyang Xu helplessly and said coldly," Get up! Hurry up and get someone to propose marriage!"
Ouyang Xu slowly raised his head and heaved a long sigh of relief after receiving amnesty. I'll go now!" After he finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Zinuo affectionately." I'll go back first. I'll come and see you tomorrow!"”
That look was as if they were reluctant to part for life and death. Yuan Zinuo felt a chill run down her spine as she waved her hand." You can go!"”
Ouyang Xu turned around, smiled slyly, and flew away.
"Xiao Nuo, I know you are a strong-minded child, but I don't want you to be hurt!”Qi Yunru stood up and stroked Yuan Zinuo's black hair." If it was just an ordinary man, Father believes that he wouldn't dare to treat you badly. However, he is the Emperor, and the Feng and Nangong families have their eyes on the position of Empress. If he can't make you the Empress, are you really willing to follow him without any status? Moreover, the internal strife in the harem is sinister and vicious. Are you sure you're willing to fight with so many women for a man?”
"Father, I've thought it through. I love him, so I have to accept everything about him. Moreover, he promised me that he would disperse the harem!”Yuan Zinuo also felt that she was a little too naive. Putting aside what would happen in the future, based on the current situation, Ouyang Xu wanted to make her queen, but there were layers of resistance.
"Do you know why the Qi Yun family's Di daughters have never entered the palace to be the empress?”Qi Yunru saw Yuan Zinuo shake her head and pulled Yuan Zinuo to sit on a chair." Qi Yundi's daughters are talented and most of them pursue immortality. Only a few of them marry and have children, but they all marry into ordinary families because they don't like power struggles and only want to live an ordinary life!”
"But I don't want to become an immortal. I just want to be with the person I love and have children!”Yuan Zinuo shook Qi Yunru's sleeve." Father, don't worry. I'll take good care of myself. I also believe that Ouyang Xu won't let me get hurt!"”
The weather in late autumn was cold. Yuan Zinuo stood in the courtyard. The wind blew past, and the cold aura made her shrink her neck as she reached out to adjust her clothes.
Qi Yunru's words were still echoing in her mind. Although the four great clans seemed to be evenly matched on the surface, the Qiyun clan had never liked power struggles and had almost no supporters in the court. If they really wanted to fight with the Feng and Nangong clans, they had no advantage at all. If she really wanted to fight for the position of empress, the Qi Yun family would definitely stand on the opposite side of these two families. At that time, the power struggle in the court would become more and more turbulent, and Ouyang Xu's situation would become more and more difficult.
Before this, she had never really thought about Ouyang Xu's hardships and difficulties. Today, Qi Yunru's words reminded her that if she was going to be with Ouyang Xu, she had to make herself stronger. Otherwise, just those few women in the harem could crush her into pieces.
"Xiao Nuo!" Ming Hong was dressed in green and wore a cloak of the same color. His handsome face had obviously become much thinner.
"Big brother!" Looking at Ming Hong, who had obviously become much more haggard, Yuan Zinuo felt very guilty. Ming Hong might not like Dongfang Caiwei, but after all, she was a woman who had been married to him and was pregnant with his child. He could not be indifferent. Consort De's death was their negligence. If they had sent people to protect Consort De in advance, this wouldn't have happened.”
"This has nothing to do with you. You don't have to blame yourself!”Ming Hong slowly walked to Yuan Zinuo's side, his eyes slightly red from exhaustion.
" But those are two lives after all!" If it was her previous life, she would never care about one or two lives. Perhaps Fu You's innocence, kindness, and innocence were passed down to her. In this life, she had become more sensitive and fragile.
"You didn't look for me just to apologize to me, did you?”Ming Hong smiled slightly and pulled Yuan Zinuo's hand into the small building." It's cold outside. Let's talk inside!"”
"All of you can leave!" Yuan Zinuo dismissed all the servant girls and sat on the soft couch with Ming Hong." I'm looking for you to ask you how the paper-making matter is going.”
"Your paper-making method is simple, and the quality of the paper produced is much higher. Although the price is high, it is very popular. According to what you said, I only sell 10,000 pieces of ordinary Xuan paper every month, so the price is getting higher and higher. The fragrant red paper can be pre-ordered. All the women in the Hanyu Dynasty, whether they are young ladies or wives of wealthy families, including the concubines in the harem, are proud to have this kind of paper. Therefore, the price has risen again and again. In just a year, we have already earned nearly 100,000 gold!”When it came to business, Ming Hong was full of admiration for Yuan Zinuo. She knew how to make use of people's curiosity to get consumers to raise the price. Not only could she gain a good reputation, but she could also avoid the jealousy of her peers.
"Yes, brother, I still have some ideas that I want to discuss with you. I think the most important thing for us now is to establish an intelligence organization!”With so many things happening recently, she deeply felt that information was too important. Otherwise, she would forever be led by the nose.
"Tell me!" Previously, Yuan Zinuo had also mentioned this matter, but because he had been busy with business, he had not had the time to think about it.
"To establish an intelligence organization, brothels and inns are the best places to collect information. Therefore, I plan to use the money I earn to secretly acquire all the first-class brothels and large inns in the world and secretly establish our own intelligence points!”She had thought about it before, but she had not been able to put it into practice during the past year in the Nuwa Shrine. The current situation had strengthened her determination to establish an intelligence organization.”
"Skynet?" This name was very interesting and also very appropriate. It was enough to show that Yuan Zinuo's ambition was very great, wanting to grasp the entire Hanyu Empire's information.
"Yes, our intelligence organization will be the largest in the world!”Only in this way could she take the initiative and control everything.
After that, Yuan Zinuo told Ming Hong about the specific operation method. The two of them talked until the evening. After dinner, Ming Hong left.
At night, Ouyang Xu wanted to quietly enter Phoenix Return Restaurant, but he was blocked outside by Liming and Chuxiao. This was because Qi Yunru had given the order that whoever let Ouyang Xu in would be punished.
Although Ouyang Xu's martial arts were very high, he did not dare to really hurt the two of them. After all, if his father-in-law was angry, his courtship path would be even more difficult. He could only return to Zhengyang Palace dejectedly.
Of course, Yuan Zinuo, who was sleeping like a pig, had no idea what was happening outside. She slept until the next day.
"Miss, the clan leader is here!" When the little servant girl saw that Yuan Zinuo had woken up, she opened the curtains for her.
"Oh, I know!" After quickly putting on her clothes and washing up, Yuan Zinuo went downstairs. "Father, so early!"
"Ouyang Zhi is here to propose marriage!" Qi Yunru scooped a bowl of rice and handed it to Yuan Zinuo. She went straight to the point, and there was no difference in her expression.
"Ouyang Zhi? Who is it?" Shouldn't Ouyang Xu be here to propose marriage? Why did Ouyang Zhi appear?
"The grandson of the Grand Empress Dowager, the grandson who grew up with Ouyang Xu on the same day!”Qi Yunru also scooped a bowl of rice for herself." Ouyang Zhi came to propose marriage early in the morning. Xiao Nuo, is there anything between you and him?”
"I don't even know him!" Yuan Zinuo didn't understand where Ouyang Zhi had popped out from. Why was he here to propose marriage?
"That's good! I will push him!" Knowing Yuan Zinuo's attitude, he knew what to do. Who asked him to follow his daughter's will?
"Patriarch!" Sunset flashed in, looking a little unwell.
"What is it?" Qi Yunru looked at the setting sun and guessed that something big must have happened.
"Ximen Tingxue, the Ninth Young Master of the West Liao Dynasty, has come to propose marriage to the Young Lady!”After all, Setting Sun had experienced great storms and waves, unlike Little Li, who was shocked when he encountered something.
"Ximen Tingxue?" Yuan Zinuo was most afraid of hearing this name." No, is he sick? I have nothing to do with him, okay?”He wondered what evil idea Ximen Tingxue was up to.
"Patriarch, Nanjiang Battle King is here to propose marriage!”Hong Xia also flashed in with a troubled expression. She didn't know what day it was, but it seemed like they had already made an appointment.
"Nanjiang Battle King? That Murong Xiong?" Yuan Zinuo suddenly felt the scent of a conspiracy, and a very big one at that. Previously, she heard that Ximen Tingxue was contacting the Southern Border. Could it be that they had already formed an alliance?
"Patriarch!" A maidservant ran in, panting." The Dongyue King is here to propose marriage!”
"Dongyue King? Dongfang Yan?" Yuan Zinuo really couldn't remain calm anymore. Now, three out of the four countries had arrived. All that was left was Bei Qiong. She didn't know who else would come after them.
Qi Yunru's frown deepened. This matter was obviously planned by someone behind the scenes, but the purpose was still unknown.
Within two hours, the front door of Qi Yun's house was broken down by the people who wanted to propose marriage. It was really broken because the door was too narrow. Everyone rushed to propose marriage, so the door was squeezed and damaged.
Ouyang Xu had just left the morning court when a ghost came to report.
"What, Ouyang Zhi? Ximen Tingxue? Dongfang Yan and Murong Xiong were there too?”Ouyang Xu quickly took off his court clothes and changed into his normal clothes." Who else?”
" There's also the Nangong Clan's second young master, Nangong Fengqian, the Murong Clan's third young master, Murong Shen, and the Feng Clan's eldest grandson, Fengzhi…" Gui Ying continued to recite from behind. Ouyang Xu's face grew darker and darker.
"Enough, those old things actually used this move?”Ouyang Xu clenched his fists tightly." Ximen Tingxue?" You guys are ruthless!"
"Master? Are we going?" Gui Ying knew that Ouyang Xu was preparing to propose marriage today, but he never thought that such a thing would suddenly happen.
"Go, why not? They like to cause trouble, how can I not participate!”With that, he walked out of Zhengyang Palace." Little Li, inform the Ministry of Rites to bring the betrothal gifts to Qi Yun's house! Inform the royal guards to go to Qi Yun's house to propose marriage!”
The head of the Ministry of Rites had already received an imperial edict to prepare the betrothal gifts for the empress. Therefore, very quickly, the group of people headed toward Qi Yun's house in a grandiose manner.
Today, the people of the Holy Capital had seen enough of a good show. Since early in the morning, there had been an endless stream of people coming to the Qi Yun family's doorstep to propose marriage. Now, even the Sage Emperor had come to propose marriage. Everyone began to guess who this Miss Qi Yun was. She was so beautiful that so many young talents came to propose marriage.
