Chastity Layman

Chongniang held up Qin Lang's letter and presented it to him, "This is a handwritten letter from Duke Wei. Grandpa, please read it and consider his proposal."

Yang Jiyuan took it, turned the letter over and over in his hands, and didn't open the envelope right away. His gaze returned to his granddaughter, and with a soft sigh, Yang Jiyuan stretched out his right hand to caress the top of her granddaughter's head.

"You have already entered the gate, why do you want to come back?"

"Duke Wei asked me to come back and persuade grandpa again."

"Since you have entered the gate, you are a member of Qin Lang. You were born as a member of the Qin family and died as a ghost of the Qin family. You are no longer the Yang family because of the water poured out by your married daughter." The old man shook his head and sighed, "This What are you doing when you come back?"

Chong Niang said that she stood under the gate for three days, and Wei Guogong didn't show any pity. In the end, Mrs. Anong picked her up privately, but when Qin Lang saw her, he only said a few words and turned around. gone.

"It seems that the surname Qin is determined to start a war with my Yang family!" Yang Jiyuan sighed. He didn't want any women who came to his door. This was a demonstration to him.

"You shouldn't have come back. You entered the gate and entered Qin Lang's house, so no matter whether he sleeps with you or not, in the eyes of outsiders, you are already Qin Lang's woman. Even if you come back, in the future No one will want you again."

Lao Yang sighed and called his subordinates.

"Send Chong Niang and her dowry back to the door, and add another thousand taels of gold."

"Chongniang, you tell Qin Lang on behalf of Grandpa, I can agree to other conditions, except that it is impossible to agree to the taxation and service of the registered household and Qimin. As long as Qin Lang is willing to give me the same conditions as the other barbarian kings in Zuoxi , I can also submit to him like them, but if I kneel at his feet like the Nong family, this is impossible."

Chongniang didn't expect this to be the result when she came back. "Grandpa, Chongniang is from the Yang family, so don't go to the gate."

"You are already Qin Lang's woman."

"No, Duke Wei and I just met and exchanged a few words."

"That's the same, let's go."

Lao Yang waved his hands ruthlessly, and asked people to take his granddaughter down.

Yang Xu asked his father puzzled, "The one surnamed Qin is determined to fight us. Why should we send Chongniang back and pay another thousand taels of gold?"

Old Yang crossed Yu Ruyi in his hand a little irritably, "Although things are up to now, as long as there is still a chance, I will try. If I can not fight, it is better not to fight."

"Grandfather, what are we afraid of doing with Qin? He can take down the water outlet and the gate, but he may not be able to move our Langshan."

"What do you know?" Lao Yang glared at his son. He originally sent people to Zuoxi to bring gifts to see Fusan and other barbarian kings. Everyone's lips are dead and teeth are cold.

But who knew, the barbarian kings of Zuoxi were all busy sweeping Shuikou Village and Jinlongdong, robbing people, money, and territory, so no one had time to talk to him.

The worse news is that not only no one of those people is willing to help him, they have even accepted Qin Lang's order and sent troops to Qin Lang's place at the gate.

Although there were not many in number, even if only one was sent, it meant that they were on Qin Lang's side.

As for the person sent to Jiaozhou in the south, it is said that after seeing Li Daliang, the new governor did not accept his heavy gift, but someone brought him back a sentence, saying that you must not resist the destiny, resist the court, and don't do it again. Follow the old path of Li Ben, Li Fozi and others.

This is a warning.

It also made Yang Jiyuan restless.

Although Yangjiawu Fort has many soldiers and high walls, the tiger is also afraid of the bite of wolves.

Yang Jiyuan spent half his life in the rivers and lakes. He thought that the barbarian kings of Zuoxi would know the truth of humiliating the dead. If everyone united together, Qin Lang would not dare to push each other too much. If you make a fuss and express your attitude, the court will retreat in spite of the difficulties and make peace with the matter.

Those stupid savages.

Qin Lang said a few empty words casually, threw some sweets, and then flashed a knife to scare them, and they really obeyed.

Today, the mouth of water was destroyed, the golden dragon was broken, and the golden rooster was brought down again in the future, and they came to fight Langshan again. If they didn't help, they would help the tyrants to abuse them. So next time, when Qin Lang wants to use his sword against those barbarian kings in Zuoxi, what will they do?

It's a pity that no one understands such a simple truth.

No wonder there are many barbarians and tribes in Baiyue in the south of the Lingnan Mountains, but for thousands of years, they have never become powerful, such as Pan, the prince of Shu in Ouluo, Zhao Tuo in Nanyue, and even Li Ben and Li Fozi before him, as well as scholars, Feng Families, etc., who can achieve a little climate and rule for a while, are all people who migrated from the Central Plains to the south, or descendants of the Han people.

Why didn't I think about this earlier?

Now riding a tiger to the south, Qin Jiyuan turned to Qin Lang unwillingly, but also felt lonely and weak, so he could only prepare for the battle and send money to his granddaughter at the same time. As long as Qin Lang is willing to talk, maybe it can be negotiated. What about a barely satisfactory result?

The older a person is, the less courageous he is.

Yang Jiyuan didn't blindly yell and fight like his sons did. If there was a real fight, the outcome would be unpredictable. Even if Yang Guang dispatched 1.12 million troops to conquer Goguryeo, wouldn't he be defeated?

There has never been a victory in a war.

Fighting a war is the last resort when it is the last resort. An old Jianghu will not easily pile up all his belongings on the gambling table.

After thinking for a while, Lao Yang said to his son Yang Xu, "You are the father of Chongniang, I know you will definitely not give up Chongniang, just in case, I mean just in case."

Lao Yang asked his son to write a letter, and Chong Niang sent it back to Qin Lang at the gate, expressing his intention to surrender.

Yang Xu was puzzled, "Is my son the kind of person who betrays the family?"

"Don't worry, I mean just in case. Our family came from the Central Plains to the South of the Five Ridges. After seven generations, in this plague-stricken wilderness, we finally managed to have such a family business. It can't be ruined by me. Anyway, You have to leave some roots before continuing. You write to Qin Lang now, and make preparations first, in case the Yang family really cannot escape this calamity, then we will have to count on you!"

Lao Yang told his son that if Qin Lang insisted on destroying Yang Wu, he would let Yang Xu open the city and surrender if he couldn't hold it. For this reason, he also specially arranged for Yang Xu to host a sub-dock, and asked him to bring all the women and children of his family there, and also picked the smart children from other rooms to go there.

The cunning rabbit still has three caves.

Lao Yang really felt a lot of pressure with this arrangement.

"In addition, I also asked someone to secretly send a few children to Jiaozhou, and from there take a boat to go to Linyi and Guangzhou."

······

Zhennan Pass.

Passersby gathered all the way, and the Guancheng became more and more lively, with tents and thatched cottages everywhere.

Fusan, the barbarian king of Zuoxi, sent one of his sons to bring a hundred people, not a large number, but quite elite.

The governors of the other sixteen states also sent people from thirty to fifty. Basically, they sent sons or grandsons to lead the team and bring words. These children and grandchildren stayed by Qin Lang's side to serve, but in fact they sent protons to Qin Lang.

On the contrary, there are many people coming to Xidong near Zhennan Pass.

Perhaps they had seen Qin Lang's prestige, or the appeal of Jinjidong Nong's family, or they were often oppressed by Lang Son Yang's family, so they came here this time to show their loyalty to Qin Lang and take advantage of the fire.

Xiaoxidong also has the way of life of Xiaoxidong.

Attaching to the strong and swinging on the wall at the same time, follow whoever is strong, have no firm stand, and never feel ashamed, follow the winner and always have meat to eat.

"Mrs. Anong has drawn a thousand young men from the various tribes of Jinjidong to form the Men County Township Regiment, and they are gathering in Beizhai for orders."

"There are more than two thousand people from all walks of life in Zuoxi."

Mrs. Anon came in in a military uniform.

"The Qin family brought Mrs. Yang here again, and returned her with the dowry, and added another thousand taels of gold. Yang Jiyuan said that since she has entered Zhennan Pass and Sanlang's house, it is Qin Qin. The family is gone, and I learned that the water poured out by the married daughter is the Qin family's ghost in life, and the Qin family's ghost in death, don't send it back again."

"Where are people?"

"I took her in and placed her in the same courtyard as last time."

Qin Lang shook his head speechlessly.

"This man surnamed Yang can really do it. Is my granddaughter not a human being?"

"Lady Yang said that his father, Yang Xu, has a letter to give to you."

"Where's the letter?"

"She said she would hand it over to you."

Qin Lang stood up, "Then go and have a look."

All the way to that courtyard, when he entered the door, he saw that Chong Niang was still wearing the wedding dress from last time. Seeing this girl, Qin Lang suddenly felt that she was also quite pitiful.

The wedding dress was originally the most beautiful dress for a woman, and wearing the wedding dress was also the happiest moment in their life, but this girl was forced by her family to put on the wedding dress and sent to Zhennanguan to be a concubine for a person she had never seen before. , the most distressing thing is that after I came, I was refused to leave the customs for three days. After finally being connected, I only saw one side and sent it back.

Sent it back, and sent it back home.

They kicked people around like kicking a ball on both sides, and the wedding dress was also worn on the body for many days and could not be taken off.

For a young lady who studied Qin Qi calligraphy and painting, and wrote poems and fuss, the experience of these days is undoubtedly difficult for her to accept.

She was there in a daze.

Seeing Qin Lang, he didn't know what expression to make. In the end, he could only bow down in a daze, and called Duke Shengwei.

Qin Lang nodded, and sat directly on the couch, "Unexpectedly, the girl is back again!"

"Grandfather said that since I am married, I am no longer part of the Yang family."

"I heard that the girl's father has a letter for me?"

Chong Niang took out the letter and handed it to Qin Lang.

Qin Lang saw it and couldn't help smiling.

He saw through Lao Yang's tricks at a glance, and wanted to stay out of the way.

"Very good." Qin Lang smiled, no matter what, Lao Yang had already revealed the fear of Ji Qiong. "I don't know what the girl's plan is?"

Chong Niang looked up at Qin Lang, "Please also ask Duke Wei to take her in. Chong Niang is now homeless."

"Don't you feel wronged, girl?"

"Women are like floating apples..."

"Since that's the case, then I'll be wronged girl. You can stay with Anong for the time being, so you can take care of each other!"
