The sweet-looking little maid Zhu Tao lives a simple and boring life on weekdays. She is careful in front of her master and never dares to talk too much. But in private, she is a gossipy little girl and has already told Princess Changxia about it.
Su Ping passed by Su Ping. But Su Ping didn't care very much, because the day when Fan Gongfei died might be the time when the sixth lady annulled her marriage, and then he would not be able to see An Guogong's second wife.
As for whether the princess is tall or short, beautiful or ugly, has body odor or body odor, these have nothing to do with the passing-in son-in-law in Miss Sixth's yard.
Su Ping stood alone in the corner, his mood gradually calmed down, and he watched the fighting on the ring. In a few moments, Su Ping had found the weaknesses and flaws of the Khitan warriors. Su Ping also discovered that Tang, who was competing on the stage at this time,
The masters of the Tang family have also discovered the weaknesses of the Khitan warriors. But every time the masters of the Tang family attack the opponent's weakness, they always feel that they are missing a little bit of speed. The speed has kept up, but the strength is a little worse. They can never knock down the opponent.
, giving people a feeling of being out of reach or at the end of their tether.
If they had been faster and punched harder, the Tang masters would have won, but it was just that little bit, leaving them helpless. Facing the nine-foot-tall behemoth, the Tang masters were in danger many times and would take down Khitan warriors from time to time.
The hammer-like fist was knocked around, and saliva, blood, and front teeth were spattered from time to time.
Perhaps, this is the fate of warriors. Since they choose to be warriors and rely on martial arts, they have to endure this kind of pain and cannot back down. Unless they no longer want to hang out in the Tang family.
At this time, Zhu Tao ran over. I don’t know where she got the news. She muttered next to her uncle: "There are three Khitan warriors like this. They are known as the third, fourth, and fifth masters of the Liao Kingdom. Today we are fighting in the Tang Mansion.
, three against ten. This contest has been approved by the emperor. If ten people from the Tang family cannot defeat three Khitan warriors, Princess Changxia will remarry a foreign country."
"oh…"
Su Ping said "oh" noncommittally, obviously he doubted the statement "third, fourth, fifth", but he didn't say anything to Zhu Tao.
Zhu Tao pursed her lips and said, "I guess the emperor is not willing to marry the princess to them. The emperor also believes that the Tang family will not be outnumbered by three out of ten."
"Yeah, I think so too." Su Ping nodded in agreement.
"But what if the Tang family really loses..." Zhu Tao was anxious, her face turned red from holding back.
If the war is really defeated and the princess is married to a foreign country, not only will the Tang family be embarrassed, but the entire Liang Dynasty will feel disgraced. Judging from Zhu Tao's anxious look, it's a pity that she doesn't know martial arts, otherwise she would have gone up to fight.
Gestures.
But Su Ping didn't seem to be in a hurry. And he soon "forgot" the humiliation he had just received. At least in the eyes of the baby-faced Zhu Tao, this son-in-law had no temper.
Of course, the little maid couldn't understand that the young man in front of her contained the soul of a middle-aged businessman. Just imagine, if a middle-aged businessman who founded a business empire showed the impulsiveness of an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, it would be even more inappropriate. And I'm afraid it would be even more inappropriate.
Not to mention his temper, even his way of thinking is not exactly the same. The issues he has to consider are not just the word "emotion".
If a person reaches middle age and is still controlled by emotions, you can say that this person has a true temperament, or you can say that he is too willful.
Of course, people have many ways to live, and there is no need to argue about their superiority and inferiority. Being able to control emotions is a skill; being unable to control emotions does not necessarily mean that you cannot become a strong person.
There are many factors that determine success or failure in life. Some people are born with the qualifications to be willful. Maybe their parents are high-ranking officials and have a rich family fortune. Maybe they are gifted in a certain area and God will reward them.
But Su Ping can control his emotions, and even if he is filled with anger, he can remain calm. In his view, "temper" is used for performance and is an expression tool. Just like a kitchen knife,
Use it when cooking, there is no need to carry it when going shopping, otherwise it will easily get you into trouble.
"Is this Brother Baoyu?"
Another master of the Tang Dynasty came on stage, and a battle was going on. Su Ping watched carefully and heard a familiar voice behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Sima Lintong, the martial arts commander, and his adjutant Zhang Hu.
The Su family used to live in Wuwei and were the richest family, so they were naturally familiar with local officials. When the Hu people broke through Zhangye and attacked Wuwei, the Su family got the news and moved their families. Lin Tong and Zhang Hu, as Wuwei guards, stayed behind.
Fighting with the barbarians there.
When Wuwei fell, he thought the two of them had died in the battle, but he didn't expect to meet them in Qinghuafang.
Su Ping quickly raised his hands and said, "Brother Kangnian and Brother Zhucheng, I didn't expect to see you two here."
The two returned the salute and exchanged a simple greeting. Lin Tong smiled ashamedly and said: "Wuwei has few soldiers and cannot hold it for a few days. We received an order from Duke An to abandon Wuwei and we led the troops to retreat to Chang'an. On the way to retreat, we were attacked by barbarians.
Interception, we two fought to the death to escape. I was only hit by an arrow in the waist, and he was hit by two arrows in the shoulder and neck. It's really a good chance that he survived. I will come back to recover from my injuries."
The two of them tried to stand upright just now, but now they no longer pretend, one is covering his waist and the other is tilting his neck.
"You two dear friends will be blessed if you survive the catastrophe." Su Ping said happily.
"Borrowing my brother's good words." Lin Tong smiled.
Zhang Hu, who was tall and tall, said in a loud voice: "Some time ago, I heard that the Sixth Miss was asking for help, and I also heard that the groom's surname was Su. At that time, we were talking about whether it would be the Su family in Wuwei. But the Duke's Office did not send an invitation.
, I and other vulgar people are not allowed to go there rashly, so I didn’t go to celebrate Brother Baoyu. How about this, after the competition is over, our brothers go to Zuixian Tower to have a drink. Alas, I don’t have money, Brother Kangnian does.
Money, let Kangnian treat you."
Lin Tong raised his eyebrows, covered his waist, turned around with difficulty, and cursed with a smile: "You are such a tiger, a good person let you do this, but I became the one who was taken advantage of?"
Zhang Hu laughed twice, pulled at the wound, covered his neck and grinned. Lin Tong and Su Ping looked at each other and laughed.
"A bunch of trash, they can't see the key point, they still have the heart to laugh at this time!" Just as Su Ping and Lin Tong were laughing, they heard the sixth lady Tang Mei scolding them sharply.
At this time, the eighth young lady Tang Yun, who was sitting not far away, said: "Sister, it's enough to scold my own family, why bother taking ours with me? Although our Lin Kangnian is not a first-class general, he is not inferior."
The word 'loyalty' comes to mind. In this battle with Wuwei, I almost lost my life. Such a loyal and brave man cannot tolerate my sister calling him a waste."
The eighth lady, Tang Yun, is Lin Tong's wife.
Lin Tong's father, Lin Geng, was one of the three tiger generals of the "Shence Army" and the right-hand man of An Guogong Tang Qiong. Therefore, it is not surprising that Lin Tong could marry the direct daughter of the Duke of An.
Tang Yun married the Lin family when she was fourteen years old. Lin Tong was eight years older than her. They had been married for three years and their relationship had always been very good. Although the Lin family was not a traditional aristocracy, the eighth lady looked at Lin Tong very much. After hearing what Tang Mei said,
Tang Yun immediately retorted.
Hearing the eighth sister's blunt rebuttal, Tang Mei pointed out: "It's your turn to teach me a lesson when I eat everything inside and outside? Do you still have filial piety in your heart? Have you forgotten the "Tang Family Law"?"
After hearing Tang Mei's "family law", the eighth young lady Tang Yun stopped talking. There was just a cloud of resentment on her pink face, but she couldn't hide it.
The girls of the Tang family are all relatively tall, and most of them have long eyebrows, high noses, and deep eyes. It is said that this is caused by Tang Yu, the ancestor of the Tang family, marrying a Uighur princess during the Western Expedition. The gene is strong and has great influence.
to date.
As a young military general, Lin Tong was not as good-tempered as Su Ping. When he heard the scolding, his expression suddenly changed. He turned around and looked at Su Ping. Su Ping was still the same, looking calm and composed. The scolding just now seemed like
Didn't hear anything in general.
At this time, the sixth master of the Tang family was also knocked off the stage. This time the Khitan warrior struck hard. He punched the master of the Tang family in the heart. Su Ping even heard the sound of fracture. But the master of the Tang family was still
Lin Tong's relatives stomped their feet when they saw Lin Tong.
The loud laughter of the Khitan warrior came again from the stage. The nine-foot-tall muscular man spread his arms like iron shafts to show off his power and shouted, "People from the Central Plains, do you still dare to come to compete? If you don't, then please
Marry Princess Changxia to our Sixth Prince of Daliao!"
Hearing this, Lin Tong and Zhang Hu were so angry that they gritted their teeth and geared up.
Zhang Hu suddenly thought of something and said loudly: "Brother Baoyu has great skills, why don't you go up and try it?"
Hey, I can't hide it anymore.
Although Lin Tong was angry, he was more mature and calm than Zhang Hu. He also knew that Su Ping was good at martial arts, but he would not make any noise unless Su Ping took the initiative to ask for help.
But Zhang Hu was different. This idiot was simple-minded, outspoken, and had a voice as loud as a bell. He shouted out loud and everyone on the high platform heard him.
