Wei Potian hesitated for a long time before finally explaining the matter clearly.
It turns out that when Wei Potian was bedridden, Zhao Yuying suddenly appeared in the ward one night. For some reason that night, none of the ladies came, and this independent beauty walked around the ward.
After a while, he even lifted Wei Potian's quilt, looked at his injuries, and then left with a look of disdain.
The process of checking the injuries must have been so intense that the eldest prince Wei was a little confused when talking about it. But after that day, Wei Potian never saw her again. It was not until Dong Qifeng attacked the city that she suddenly appeared again
.
Even Wei Potian didn't know what he was expecting, so he came to Qianye early in the morning to inquire about the news. But when he heard that the other party was the granddaughter of Youguo, Wei Potian knew that there was no way she was here to seek revenge.
A member of a noble family who is engaged to be engaged.
The marriage is about the good relationship between the two surnames, and the connection is a family alliance. However, the Wei family in the Far East has been neutral for hundreds of years and never marries with the main branch of the family. If the Zhao family has such an intention, it is not a trivial matter, and Wei Potian will definitely not
Don't know.
"Potian? What do you want me to do for you?" Qianye's question woke Wei Potian out of his thoughts.
He thought about it seriously, then suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "No, you don't have to do anything. I know who she is, that's enough."
Qianye pondered for a moment, patted Wei Potian on the shoulder, and said sympathetically: "I have to say that your choice is very brave! But I will not get involved in this matter, it is up to you."
Wei Potian opened his mouth, but didn't know where to start and left in despair.
Qianye looked at Wei Potian's back and shook his head. With Zhao Yuying's character, she was really not suitable to recommend to his brother as his wife. Wei Potian wanted to jump into the fire pit, that was his business, but Qianye couldn't do it.
He kicked him in the butt again. Besides, looking at Wei Potian's expression, I'm afraid there might be other obstacles.
After sending Wei Potian away, Qianye finally had time to sit down and do some serious business. In just half a day, another half-foot-high pile of documents was piled on the desk, and Qianye looked at them one by one.
The reorganization of the Dark Fire and the 7th Division has been on the right track, intensive training has begun, and preparations for the westward march are also proceeding in an orderly manner. The battlefield outside the city has been cleaned, and all types of mechanical equipment and munitions have been inventoried by category and delivered to the warehouse.
.However, the most troublesome thing is the tens of thousands of prisoners and the aerospace craft.
Most of these family private armies are servants of family members who have been serving for generations, as well as a large number of children from distant branches. They are often very loyal to the family and can be incorporated into their own army at will, which is like laying a landmine.
During the civil war in the empire, there would also be tragic situations where Ying Ye was killed, and there were similar reasons behind it. But now that the other side had surrendered, and the war was over, Qianye felt that he could not kill all these ten thousand people with just one order.
The aerostat is completely a luxury item in the Evernight Continent, and the maintenance cost is extremely high. Not only is there a lack of professional technicians, but if you want to replace parts, you have to go to the upper continent to buy many of them. The Dong family's aerostats are mainly used for cargo, and also
Most of them are old and useless, and it is a pity to abandon them, which is very useless.
Qianye thought of several ways, but felt that they were either unfeasible or too wasteful. All in all, they were not satisfactory.
Just when Qianye was busy, Song Zining came out again. It seemed that the injury that had troubled him was finally almost healed. After a few words with Qianye, Song Zining understood the dilemma he was facing, and immediately ran to Chongyang Marquis.
The third lady's residence, please see Sun Kaiyan.
Marquis Chongyang and the Song Dynasty were family friends. When Song Zining revealed his identity, his guards immediately invited him in. After hearing the news, the maid who came to greet him took him into the flower hall of the inner courtyard.
When Sun Kaiyan saw Song Zining, she first smiled and asked, "Zining, long time no see. How is Mu Lan?"
Song Zining said with a smile: "Everything is fine. But Kaiyan, you have become more and more beautiful after not seeing me for a while."
Sun Kaiyan chuckled, "Glib tongue!"
The maid next to her complained on behalf of Song Zining: "Miss, what the Seventh Young Master said is not the slightest bit exaggerated! You don't know, the young masters of the Zhou family and the Tian family have almost dropped their eyes when they saw you recently!"
Sun Kaiyan snorted and said: "No matter how big or small, I won't tear your mouth apart if you look back!"
The maid just laughed, and although she bowed and apologized, there was no trace of fear on her face.
Sun Kaiyan said to Song Zining: "I can't help it, this girl is used to it. Zining, you came to me not just to chat, right?"
Song Zining smiled slightly and said straight to the point: "Kaiyan, what do you think you need to win the position of Mrs. Bowang Hou in the future?"
The two had known each other for several years and had quite a friendship. Sun Kaiyan was not offended when Song Zining directly mentioned such a private matter, but she was stumped by the question.
She then sighed and said, "How do I know? Potian and I were able to talk to each other originally, but now he is surrounded by a group of warblers, so how can I get in the way? I just want to have a few words with him alone.
It’s not easy! In fact, I don’t think about it too much anymore, I just think it’s just a trip. Do you have any good ideas?”
Song Zining said confidently: "Actually, the key to this matter is no longer with you and Wei Potian, but with Marquis Chongyang."
Sun Kaiyan was startled and asked: "How do you say this?"
Song Zining smiled and said: "This matter has now reached a deadlock. Even if you have a way to break the situation, others will definitely not sit back and watch. But the root cause is that Bowang Hou said that two people are happy, so the situation is broken
The method is still with Wei Hou."
Sun Kaiyan's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and then there was a hint of surprise.
"You and I both know the true meaning of family marriage. Therefore, only if Marquis Chongyang comes forward to have a serious talk with Marquis Bowang can we hope to finalize the marriage. And in this, your status and reputation in the clan are very important. You
The heavier the weight, the more chips Marquis Sun is willing to offer, and the greater the hope of impressing Marquis Bowang."
Sun Kaiyan frowned and said, "That's true, but what should I do?"
Song Zining gently shook the folding fan and said: "Actually, there is an opportunity right in front of us. The battle just now was won heartily. Although the Sishui Bo is only middle-ranking in the family, but it is not that easy to deal with them all. This battle can be
Call it a perfect victory, talk about it
The merit is not small, and it is also very glorious. Didn't you also go to the city to join the battle? If you send some prisoners back to your family, it also means to promote your martial arts. Everyone knows how many guards you brought here, and if you compare them with the prisoners, they will naturally know your
It’s a great achievement.”
Sun Kaiyan's heart skipped a beat when she heard that military merit was the most important thing in the Great Qin Empire, and the aristocratic family was no exception. These noble girls all wanted to marry into foreign countries and did not participate in family inheritance, but their battlefield achievements still really increased their status within the clan and gained resources.
Items.
But she hesitated and said: "But the prisoners are all in the hands of Dark Fire."
Song Zining said with a smile: "Those prisoners are all the private army of Uncle Surabaya, and this is the realm of eternal night. What's the use of Dark Fire for them? They don't dare to use them in their own army. Wouldn't it be a waste to sell them as ordinary slaves?
?So as long as you propose to buy some prisoners, Commander Qianye of Dark Fire will naturally have no reason to disagree."
"That's right! I'll go find him right now!"
Sun Kaiyan has a cheerful personality and does whatever comes to her mind. After Song Zining left, she immediately took her maid and bodyguard and went straight to the Dark Fire Base.
In order to contain Crown Prince Wei, these noble ladies had already made the Dark Fire Regiment a frenzy, and the guards already knew them. Sun Kaiyan met Qianye without any trouble, and when she met, she said: "Captain Qian"
, I want to buy a group of prisoners, and it’s best to add two aerostats, the ones from the Dong family.”
Qianye was worried that the problem could not be solved, so Sun Kaiyan came to his door. How could he refuse? He immediately called Song Hu, spread out the list of loot, and the two parties sat down to discuss in detail.
Sun Kaiyan didn't look carefully at the thick stack of documents. She only wanted the quantity and a certain ratio of ordinary soldiers to officers, but she didn't care who specifically bought it.
When Qianye asked her how many prisoners she wanted, Sun Kaiyan said: "Five hundred, no, one thousand!"
This number surprised Qianye. The proportion of combat soldiers in the Dong family's private army was quite high. If so many soldiers were to be completely integrated, a sufficient size of troops would be needed to absorb them. However, this was Sun Kaiyan's private matter and had nothing to do with him.
Qianye didn't know that when confirming the purchase quantity, Sun Kaiyan suddenly thought that if she bought more captives, the other noble ladies would be able to buy less. From the beginning, she had no hope of being able to hide it from those eldest ladies.
, the best way is to remove the firepower from under the cauldron.
After the agreement was reached, Sun Kaiyan directly asked her entourage to pay. All she carried with her were high-purity energy-grade black crystals, which are popular currencies everywhere. After the important matter was agreed upon, Qianye handed over the follow-up matters to Song Hu and asked him to
Arrange for personal guards to take the Sun family to select prisoners.
Heiliu City is not that big, and all the ladies have one eye staring at Wei Potian and the other eye staring at each other. Therefore, it didn't take long for Sun Kaiyan's unusual movements to reach the ears of the ladies, and then
Within a few hours, the reason why she did this also spread. I don’t know if someone leaked the news or if it was guessed by some smart staff.
The noble ladies who were in trouble suddenly felt that the key to becoming Bowang Hou's wife was the family behind them. If they wanted to get enough help from their families, of course they had to rely on their own performance, so they took action one after another.
Not long after Sun Kaiyan left, Qianye replaced Wei Potian and was surrounded by a group of noble ladies. The captives and old aerostats that originally gave him a headache were actually sold out. In order to get more shares, the noble ladies
It almost hurt the harmony.
The problem finally fell back into the hands of Qianye, the leader of Dark Fire.
Who gets more and who gets less is a matter of principle related to face and cannot be taken carelessly. Each of these noble ladies has an extraordinary status. Even if the father of three of them is Fang Bo, who seems to have a lower title, but either
He was an officer who was sealed at the border and had a large number of troops. Either he had strong relatives and friends, otherwise he would not have the confidence to send his daughter to marry the Marquis of Wei.
As long as this matter is handled slightly improperly, it is almost impossible to offend anyone. Qianye just hesitated, wondering which noble lady took the initiative and actually started bidding.
Now it's bad. A group of women get together and they are all trying to outdo each other. Who is willing to fall behind others? In the blink of an eye, they fight with a bayonet and see the red, and the price skyrockets in an instant.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Qianye shouted: "Shut up, everyone!!"
