As soon as Marquis Chengyang came back, another verbal battle was inevitable.

Wei Zheng used his eloquent tongue to make Marquis Chengyang speechless again and again.

I almost died of anger.

Wei Zheng's words were very clear. No matter what, whoever wanted to marry Zhou Yun could marry her. He would never marry her no matter what!

Cheng Liu was both angry and amused. In her heart, she wished that Wei Zheng would quarrel with Marquis Chengyang like this every day. The more they quarreled, the more Marquis Chengyang would only have her son in his heart.

"Master, please don't be angry. It's not worth it to get sick from anger. If Zheng'er doesn't like the girls from the Zhou family, the worst that can happen is that we can just look at a few more. There will always be someone suitable."

While Cheng Liu seemed to be comforting Marquis Chengyang, he also said things that went against his will and irritated him.

The Chengyang Marquis was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "What are you changing for?! Two girls from the Zhou family are more than enough for him. No wonder he said he didn't like them and looked down on them. He just kept refusing. Even if we replaced them with fairies from heaven, he would have a way to return them!"

Cheng Liu took a deep breath, "Master is right... You are right, your health is the most important thing."

After a few words of comfort, Marquis Chengyang became even more determined. Marquis Guiyang was highly appreciated by the emperor. If the Wei family were to marry Marquis Guiyang at this time, it would be beneficial to the Wei family.

No matter that brat likes it or not, this marriage must happen!

Wei Zheng was in a state of turmoil, and He Hui was also having a hard time. Ever since Wu Ya found out about her relationship with Shen Yixing, this secret that could explode at any time often lingered in her mind.

When I suddenly think of it, my heart still feels palpitations.

-

"Ayun, you are so stupid. Wei Zheng is a naturally romantic person. I don't know why the wife of Guiyang Marquis would marry you to such a man..."

It is rumored that Wei Zheng's mother is the sister of King Dongzhi, but since she married into the capital, she has become more estranged from Marquis Chengyang. Even after giving birth to Wei Zheng, the relationship between the couple did not ease. After Madam Wen passed away, the father and son became even more estranged.

People in Kyoto all say that Wei Zheng is a cold-hearted person.

The affection between relatives in the eyes of the world is the most dispensable thing to him.

Zhou Yun clutched the handkerchief, "What should we do? Even if Wei Zheng is a bad person in every way, he is still the eldest son of Marquis Chengyang and will inherit the title in the future." To put it bluntly, she came here just for his title.

Besides, although Wei Zheng was frivolous, he was handsome enough to attract many unmarried women in Kyoto.

Just based on that face, there are probably countless women who want to be involved with him.

Wu Ya chuckled, "That's right... Chengyang Marquis's family is not low, and ordinary women can't get close to him, and your two families are also well matched. There are only two reasons why a man from aristocratic family like Wei Zheng doesn't want to get married. One is that he doesn't have a woman he likes, but he doesn't want to get married too early and be restricted. The other is that he already has a woman he likes, and for various reasons he can't be together, so he refuses with various reasons."

Zhou Yun said doubtfully, "When you say that, I remember something. My maid saw with her own eyes that Ji Mengshu came out of his house outside. You say..."

This is not impossible. After all, the one from the Ji family is famous for her beauty in Kyoto.

"She's just a poor woman who doesn't know what to do. Somehow everyone in Kyoto has forgotten about her. You should go and remind her!" Wu Ya's words finally woke Zhou Yun up.

That's right. She is just a poor man. With such a beautiful appearance, it would be a pity if she didn't become someone's concubine in the end.

After returning home, Zhou Yun instigated his brother to provoke Ji Mengshu.

"Brother, didn't you praise her beauty before? Now she has no one to back her up, so you can do whatever you want to her?"

Zhou Muzhe touched the slight stubble on his chin, collapsed on the bed, burped with a strong smell of alcohol, and said incoherently, "Why? It's very unlucky, I don't want to provoke her!"

Zhou Yun rebuked him angrily, "Are you unwilling or afraid? Do you know that she is almost seducing your sister's husband away?"

Zhou Muzhe smiled and said, "My sister is a great beauty. Wei Zheng, that boy, can't help but feel sorry for you, right?"

There is no reason to say whether he dares or not. Ji Mengshu has guards with high martial arts skills around him, and he dare not provoke them easily.

But no matter how much he said he didn't dare to provoke her, when he turned around and got together with that group of drinking buddies, he still thought of her stunning face at an inappropriate time in his mind.

"Tell me the truth, you really don't have any idea in your mind?" Zhou Muzhe smiled sideways and said, "Why don't we go and take a look?"

Wang Ping frowned and rubbed his fingers together, "No, she's the one I want!"

After hearing Wang Ping's confident words, the others felt jealous, but they had no right to argue with Wang Ping, so they could only secretly congratulate him on getting his beauty.

-

Wei Zheng was not in a good mood and was thinking about love affairs.

There was no sign of him the whole day, until finally one day in late autumn, he appeared happily in the yamen in the east of the city, crowding and looking at the yamen that was surrounded by people.

"An explanation! We want an explanation!"

Many curious people also crowded around and asked, "What happened?"

"It's because your Majesty is so stubborn that he insists on conscription. The edict clearly states that we only need males over the age of ten who have nowhere to go. However, there are not enough of them, so the people under General He willfully arrest good men and revoke their household registration, making them homeless... This is not the most infuriating thing. What's even more hateful is that those people are bullies who only care about the weak and fear the strong. Rich families can save their sons from disaster by spending some money, but they are afraid of the officials' families, so they can only attack the powerless common people."

The man nodded, "It is indeed unforgivable! We must give an explanation to see if the emperor still values ​​us ordinary people!"

Wei Zheng hid in the crowd and nodded with a smile. He learned this trick from Ji Mengshu. He set up a big chessboard and then invited people from all over the world to join in.

The most taboo thing for military morale is instability. With such a scattered morale, he didn't believe that He Wei could still chase them to the battlefield.

"Prince...please stop laughing, something has happened."

The servant beside him pulled the man out from the crowd and whispered in his ear.

Wei Zheng glanced at them and said, "Misfortunes never come alone. Why does it have to happen at this time?" He quickly followed them to Daxiangguo Temple.
