Chapter 264: I am also very picky

Chapter 264 I am also picky

Ye Anlan was speechless. She communicated with Yang Xiaotao and Wen Liuniang, and the three quickly made a surveillance plan.

Yang Xiaotao, Wen Liuniang, and Zheng Fengshou, who are the best in martial arts, are responsible for tracking and eavesdropping. Ye Anlan is responsible for contacting Xie Yuan and Li Jing. The remaining two female guards follow Ye Anlan, protecting her and helping her at any time. Run errands to pass the word.

Ye Anlan, who originally wanted to take a sneak peek at Li Jing before leaving, was forced to temporarily change her plan.

In order to avoid attracting attention, she did not contact Li Jing or Xie Yuan, but detoured to Chang'an.

Chang'an's martial arts is higher than Ye Anlan's. Ye Anlan can contact him without alarming anyone unrelated.

With him spreading the word, Li Jing and Xie Yuan soon found a place where they would not be disturbed, and had a secret meeting with Ye Anlan.

Before this, Ye Anlan had already investigated where the resident next door relied.

The three met and greeted each other, and Ye Anlan explained the reason why she went to them.

"I have something to do. I brought someone over here. I stayed at the inn. Coincidentally, the old lady who lived in the room next to me was the old lady of the Cui family in Zhengzhou who had dealt with me and Ah Jing once. Listen to her That means, she wants to marry her granddaughter to senior brother or Ah Jing."

Li Jing frowned and thought for a moment, "Is it Cui Lan's grandmother?"

Ye Anlan nodded, "You should still remember the incident when his sister scolded you?"

The corners of Li Jing's lips curled up a bit, of course he remembered that it was the first time Ye Anlan lost his temper in order to defend him.

He briefly told the bewildered Xie Yuan how he and Cui Lan got acquainted because of their studies, and the reason why the gown was cut off. Xie Yuan couldn't help being quite speechless after hearing this.

Still thinking about marrying the girl in the family to Li Jing? When the words "cutting the gown and judging righteousness" are just jokes?

He asked Ye Anlan, "They want to tell Yanning the girl of the right age at home, shouldn't they ask the matchmaker to go to Lanling County to negotiate with Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li? Why did they come to Pizhou in person?"

Ye Anlan reminded Xie Yuan, "And you, they also want to tell you about the girls of the right age at home."

Xie Yuan:! ! Didn't he hear wrong just now?

He held back for a long time before he could say, "But I'm already married!"

"It is because you are married that they feel that they can persuade your wife."

"My wife?" Xie Yuan was at a loss, "How did this pull my wife out again?"

Ye Anlan shrugged, "That old Mrs. Cui said, let Mrs. Sister-in-law choose one of the two, to see if she wants to take a concubine for you, or want to be a matchmaker for Ah Jing."

Xie Yuan:

He stroked his forehead with his hands, "Here you are waiting for me."

Ye Anlan nodded, "I asked someone to check it out. They seem to think that they can bring you great benefits, and because of this, they are sure that you will not refuse their 'little wish'."

Xie Yuan was speechless.

Li Jing explained with a smile, "The Cui family originally voted for the Huang family's army nearby, and the Huang family's army was about to collapse thousands of miles away. They thought they wanted to find a new home before the ship sank, so they sent their family members to the lord's side."

Ye Anlan thought about where the Cui family was, and immediately understood why the Cui family was so confident. She asked Xie Yuan and Li Jing, "Are you going to fight Zhengzhou next?"

The geographical location of Zhengzhou is very important. It can be said that it is a place that must be contested by military strategists. Now that the Cui family has made up their minds to climb the wall, they will definitely contribute to Xie Yuan's siege of the city in the next battle of Zhengzhou.

Xie Yuan nodded, "We are indeed going to fight Zhengzhou."

Ye Anlan frowned.

The city walls of Zhengzhou are tall and thick, and the materials used to build the walls are not ordinary earth bricks, but long strips of stones specially dug out.

Moreover, Zhengzhou has more than one city wall, and the city gates of Zhengzhou also use a lot of refined iron, which is far beyond the comparison of the simple city walls and city gates in other small states and counties.

Such a city is not easy to fight. This war is no longer the kind of battle that Ye Anlan experienced before.

There is no need to ask Xie Yuan or Li Jing, Ye Anlan knows that this war will definitely kill a lot of people.

She sighed, "No wonder that old lady of Cui's family is so sure that she can handle Madam Sister-in-law."

Xie Yuan's wife must of course consider her husband's career. She can exchange a marriage for an internal response. From the standpoint of Mrs. Cui, she feels that Mrs. Xie has no reason to refuse.

However, Xie Yuan knew about this matter one step ahead of Mrs. Xie. With his personality, although he didn't mind having one or two more women in his backyard, he was blatantly threatened by such a thing, especially when the other party was still there. He and Li Jing were picking and choosing, which made Xie Yuan very unhappy.

He believes that whether it is his background, appearance, character, ability, or the soldiers and horses in his hands, and the territory he controls, he is by no means comparable to a mere Zhengzhou Cui family.

Even his brother-in-law, who was evenly matched with him, was polite to him when he planned to marry him. His wife, Mrs. Xie, never married him because of her brother's huge power. Feeling arrogant, taking Joe as a demon.

Compared with them, what is the Zhengzhou Cui family?

They first abandoned the people under their rule and fled back to their hometown, allowing a certain rebel army known for its brutality to burn, kill and loot wantonly. Master bargain.

Such a family with no strength of character, to be honest, Xie Yuan is not at all caring about their surrender.

Although at this moment, their surrender can make it easier for Xie Yuan to attack Zhengzhou, but like them, like hyenas chasing carrion, all actions are due to a "profit" family. Xie Yuan believes that as long as they seize the opportunity, they He would definitely bite Xie Yuan back without hesitation.

Fighting for the world is not a joke, death or defeat is inevitable, sometimes in order to confuse the enemy, they will even release smoke bombs to show the enemy is weak. At that time, Xie Yuan can hardly guarantee that the Cui family will not be like this It seems that they are also looking for other rebel forces they are optimistic about to surrender.

Rather than to be easy to be manipulated for a while, and at the same time bear the risk of being bitten back at any time, Xie Yuan would rather refuse the sweetness offered by the Cui family now.

He said to Ye Anlan: "Don't worry, your senior brother, although I am thirsty for talents, I have not failed to pick this kind of person. Even if I act against the Cui family, who is ungrateful for profit, I will not take it They are under their command, so that they have the opportunity to bite me, the new owner, at any time, as if they were betraying the old owner. Not to mention that they plan to use this to make conditions with me, forcing me or Ah Jing to marry their girl."

If you don’t mention the conditions, you won’t like it, and if you mention the conditions, you won’t like it┓(`)┏
