Chapter 375 Marriage Discussion
It's you, it's you, it's you!
Chu Tang looked at Feng Jianqi with wide eyes and almost cursed her.
He finally understood!
Before, he had always wondered why someone in the Feng Mansion, as the leader of the Zhenyi Guards, would spread rumors about the most special and outstanding young lady in their Feng family!
Moreover, this scandal rumor has spread throughout Feng Mansion and inside, which is a bit weird no matter how you look at it.
Even if someone is spreading the news, Feng Kaijing's eyes and ears in the capital will definitely detect it immediately.
So, with the energy of the leader of the Zhenyi Guards, he will definitely be able to nip this trend of spreading rumors in the cradle without even causing any waves.
However, what happened was beyond everyone's expectation. The scandal between him, an unknown boy from Liangzhou, and Fenghuang was like a kite with its string cut off, flying out boundlessly.
Chu Tang was puzzled before and even speculated on many conspiracy theories, such as who wanted to harm him, or who was plotting against the Feng family or Feng Huang.
Now it seems that this is not the case at all!
Maybe Feng Kaijing spread this rumor!
Even if he didn't do it himself, it might be a hint that someone else did.
Why do this?
The reason is Feng Jianqi’s suggestion!
Chu Tang really didn't expect that things would develop like this, and he even wondered what the brain circuit of Bu Feng Jian Qi was——
He, Chu Tang, had only met Mr. Feng a few times in total, and the number of days they spent together could be counted with one slap.
Under such circumstances, Feng Jianqi recommended Chu Tang to Feng Kaijing to join the Zhenyi Guards. It can be said that he had a love for talents.
Chu Tang even praised him in his heart for his righteousness!
This man is capable!
But proposing to his uncle that the most outstanding daughter of the younger generation of their Feng family be betrothed to him, Chu Tang, was not something that ordinary people could do.
"Does Feng Jianqi have any deep grudge against Feng Huang and want to make things difficult for her?" Chu Tang even doubted Feng Jianqi's motives.
I have never seen anyone cheating on my sister like this!
How could anyone treat a stranger as his brother-in-law?
Feng Jianqi's heart was hurt by Chu Tang's look that looked like a fool, and he quickly said: "Chu Tang, don't think that I am acting hastily."
Chu Tang nodded: Yes, you are not careless, you are short of brains!
Feng Jianqi signaled Chu Tang to be calm and explained: "Actually, I have thought it through carefully. You will understand after listening to what I said."
"I would like to hear the details." Chu Tang responded.
Feng Jianqi pondered for a moment and said: "You have seen Feng Phoenix before. Whether it is martial arts or appearance, he is not bad, right?"
Chu Tang has to admit this, not only is she not bad, this girl is simply awesome!
Feng Jianqi had an I-know-you expression on her face and said, "Look, you are nodding your head, which shows that this girl Feng Huang is indeed very attractive!"
Chu Tang was even more confused. The guy in front of him looked like he was honored to have such a sister. He didn't seem to have any motive to push his sister into a pit of fire.
"Chu Tang, do you know how old Feng Huang is this year? She..."
"Twenty-three." Chu Tang interrupted.
"Huh?" Feng Jianqi looked puzzled, "Why are you asking about the age of a young girl?"
He looked as if he was wary of someone trying to steal his cabbage.
Chu Tang shrugged and said, "Miss Third told Chu personally."
Feng Jianqi's face froze when he heard this, with a constipated expression on his face, and he said in disbelief: "She told you? Why did she tell you?"
Chu Tang briefly recounted what happened that day when Fenghuang came to her door for a duel, focusing on the fact that he asked Fenghuang her age just to speculate on her cultivation level.
After listening to it, Feng Jianqi still complained: "This girl is really lacking in strength! How can you tell a girl's age casually?"
Chu Tang was very speechless and said: "Martial arts practitioners, children of the world, why do you have to pay so much attention to it! It's just age, it's not about your birth date. Brother Feng, are you too sensitive?"
Feng Jianqi looked a little embarrassed and quickly changed the subject: "Let's get down to business. Feng Huang is twenty-three years old this year and is not married yet. Don't you think it's strange?"
"It's not surprising. For martial arts practitioners, even if they are women, it takes a lot of time to achieve success. Therefore, most of the children in the martial arts get married very late." Chu Tang answered unceremoniously.
Feng Jianqi was stunned and couldn't fix it.
But he couldn't refute, because what the other party said was really correct!
Even Young Master Feng, who was obsessed with martial arts in his early years and later became a guard, was so busy that he never touched the ground. After he came to Liangzhou to serve as the commander of the guard, he was far away from the divine capital. The mountains were high and the emperor was far away, and he lacked the support of his family. I was restrained and completely let myself go. I am now in my mid-thirties and still single!
He is also a disciple of Feng Mansion, but Feng Huang's martial arts talent is more outstanding than him, and his future is brighter. Is there any problem with being unmarried for twenty-three years?
No problem at all!
Taking a deep breath, Feng Jianqi forced himself to calm down and said: "Our Feng family is different from the general Jianghu forces. We are both a martial arts family and a court family. In fact, marriage is not free in this family. Our Feng family Many of the disciples got married early. Even if the emperor is more outstanding, even if he is not married, he will be married early. "
Chu Tang nodded in approval: "Family marriage, it's understandable."
Feng Jianqi sighed and said: "Actually, Fenghuang should have decided on a husband early on. When she was fourteen or fifteen years old, countless families came to ask for her hand in marriage. At that time, Fenghuang was in a critical period for practicing the Fire Phoenix Divine Spear Skill. In order not to distract her, our family thought that it would not be too late to wait for two or three years before making a decision, but we never thought..."
"What happened? The person you chose for her died unexpectedly? Or is Fenghuang suffering from a physical problem and not suitable for marriage?" Chu Tang asked curiously.
Feng Jianqi was dumbfounded and said angrily: "What are you talking about! How can there be such nonsense!"
"This is what is written in the romance stories!"
Feng Jianqi said angrily: "Don't read some idle books if you have nothing to do! What I want to say is that when Fenghuang was seventeen or eighteen years old, she joined the Phoenix Army for training and won the trust of Princess Xincheng. She was promoted continuously and soon became the He became the deputy commander of the Phoenix Army.
"Even though the Phoenix Army has only a small number of people, it is still an established army. The deputy commanders all have the rank of third grade. This grade is not low even in the city of God. As a result, the Phoenix Army is even more popular. Now. She has become a hot commodity, and it is even more difficult for our family!"
Chu Tang expressed confusion: "Being more popular doesn't mean you have more options to choose from? Why is it so difficult?"
Feng Jianqi laughed: "Look, just saying this shows that you don't understand the situation in the court, let alone the plans and disputes of the courtiers."
Chu Tang shrugged and said, "Chu is not interested in politics."
Feng Jianqi smiled bitterly and said: "You can be indifferent if you are far away from the capital of the gods. You can even put aside your job as a catcher and work as a wandering cloud and wild crane. But our Feng family can't do that! Our Feng family started following the founding ancestor of Dayao, and we have the same relationship with the country. Rest together and share weal and woe with the royal family.
"They are our second uncle. After we became the commander-in-chief of the Yiyi Guards, our Feng family became a first-class existence in the city of God. Then, when it comes to the marriage of our children, we must think carefully about everything we choose, and consider it carefully. Think carefully and don't dare to make a mistake easily.
"The same is true for other ordinary children. Feng Huang, the deputy commander of the Phoenix Army, is even more troublesome. We look down on ordinary family backgrounds and dare not choose them. Otherwise, we will not only harm them, but also offend other families.
"But we don't dare to choose a powerful family, otherwise we will become the target of public criticism. With the strong alliance, the emperor will be worried about the existence. The Feng family is already so powerful, and they want to marry other powerful families. With people like Feng Huang, even the emperor can’t sleep peacefully. So, we don’t dare to move, just delaying Feng Huang from reaching this age!”
After hearing this, Chu Tang was silent for a long time, and finally said: "You are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish? Brother Feng, you said that it delayed the age of the third lady, but how do you know that she is not happy like this? Chu looked at her I wish it was so!"
It's great to be single, women will only affect the speed of men drawing swords, and vice versa!
Feng Jianqi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "It's not impossible. But we can't go on like this. Feng Huang will get married sooner or later. Otherwise, when she gets older, there will be rumors that we are rare for her martial arts talent. I think Tie her to the Feng family for the rest of her life and prevent her from getting married.
"People's words are terrible! Such words may not have much impact on Fenghuang, but if they really spread, will the younger generation in the family think this is the case? In this way, people's hearts will be separated, and the family will not be able to unite. A If the family cannot unite, it will suffer sooner or later!"
Chu Tang was dumbfounded. What could be said in such a coquettish way?
However, he is alone and does not understand the operating mechanism of a family, so it is difficult to evaluate him.
Feng Jianqi looked at Chu Tang and said, "I think so, since I want to marry Feng Huang, why not marry someone with no foundation!"
Chu Tang was greatly surprised and pointed at himself: "Chu?"
Feng Jianqi hummed, nodded and said seriously: "Feng Huang's husband can be ordinary, but not ordinary, otherwise it will be a huge injustice to her. Ordinary means that the family background is ordinary, or even he has no feet. No. Ordinary means that whether it is martial arts or talent, you must be outstanding!"
Chu Tang was confused, but felt that Feng Jianqi had just called his name.
Sure enough, I only heard Feng Jianqi say: "Chu Tang, I know very well your martial arts and your personality. You are more than enough to match a girl like Feng Huang. You will definitely not be an ordinary person in the future."
Chu Tang digested it for a while before asking: "Brother Feng, what do you mean if you come from an ordinary family?"
Feng Jianqi explained: "You come from the remote Liangzhou, both your parents died, and you have no family or sect. In the city of Shendu, a place full of children of aristocratic families and important officials of the imperial court, no one will question you even if you are white. Betroth Fenghuang to you. Give it to you, the emperor will be extremely satisfied, because you are equivalent to cutting off the opportunity of our Feng family to marry their best daughter.
"In addition, even if other families are dissatisfied, they will not make things difficult for us, because everyone will think like this: I can't get it, and you can't get it, which means that everyone is neither increasing nor decreasing, just right!"
Chu Tang saw Feng Jian Qi getting more and more excited as he talked, and said expressionlessly: "So, Feng Huang is still your political tool!"
Feng Jianqi's face froze and he smiled bitterly and said: "This is the sad thing about coming from a rich family. Fenghuang, I, including other children, must follow this routine unless I turn against the Feng family and become a prodigal son in the world. Rules. After we enjoy the benefits given by the family, we must be prepared to pay for the family."
Chu Tang glanced at him and said, "Brother Feng can see clearly."
Feng Jianqi's smile became even more bitter: "If you had seen more, you would be more transparent. Chu Tang, although my proposal is a bit utilitarian, it will be a good thing for you, the Feng family, and Feng Huang. "
Chu Tang said calmly: "Chu has no intention of clinging to the aristocratic family."
Feng Jianqi said quickly: "Of course, if you were a utilitarian person, you wouldn't have rushed into the Nanqinghou Mansion and killed their eldest son out of anger. That's what I value about you."
Chu Tang added: "I am obsessed with martial arts and have no intention of having children."
"That's even better. The same goes for Feng Huang. You two are the best match!" Feng Jianqi laughed.
Chu Tang rolled his eyes at him and said, "What kind of match does he deserve? Do you want to compete in martial arts duels every day?"
Feng Jianqi said: "In a married couple's home, fights at the head of the bed and peace at the end of the bed!"
Chu Tang said helplessly: "Brother Feng, do you really want to misinterpret Chu's meaning?"
Feng Jianqi's face gradually became serious and said: "Chu Tang, I know you are refusing, but I hope you can seriously consider it."
Chu Tang asked curiously: "Brother Feng, if you are trying to find a partner here, aren't you afraid that Miss Feng San will disapprove and settle a score with you?"
"She dares!" Feng Jianqi snorted coldly, "Although I have just returned to Shendu, I have also heard the rumors about you two. I think it was the second uncle who gave the signal to do this. He agreed. Feng Huang didn't Will refuse.”
Chu Tang suddenly realized that, indeed, that old guy Feng Kaijing was really causing trouble!
"Eh? No!" Chu Tang was wary.
Things get even weirder!
Just as Feng Jianqi said, Feng Kaijing is the head of the Feng Mansion. As long as he speaks, Feng Huang has no room for objection. Duan's decision is final and no one dares to disobey.
With such power, if he really wanted to betroth Feng Huang to him, he could just ask for it. How could he deliberately spread rumors and make most of the gods go crazy?
"He is scheming, testing what?" Chu Tang felt his brain hurt.
It’s so hard to guess the thoughts of a boss with such a deep sensory field fighting against the palace!
You think he is like this, but he is like that.
You think you are on the same level as him, but maybe he is outside the atmosphere!
The more Chu Tang thought about it, the angrier he became. Damn it, my fate is up to me and no one else!
"Brother Feng, Chu just wants to find some work in the capital of the gods, not to get married." Chu Tang refused as expected, "I hope this is not the only condition for Chu to join the Yiyi Guard."
"Of course not!" Feng Jianqi smiled bitterly, "I still recognize your talents. It's just that I hope you can consider this proposal of cooperation that benefits both sides."
Chu Tang was silent.
Seeing that Chu Tang was not in high spirits, Feng Jianqi couldn't say more. The two talked about other topics until Feng Jianqi left.
Looking at Feng Jianqi's hurried away figure, Chu Tang smiled bitterly. This meeting was really full of twists and turns.
At first, it was a reunion of old friends with many surprises, but in the end, it was said that they broke up on bad terms, right?
Chu Tang's heart was filled with a layer of gloom. (End of chapter)
