Qianye walked out of the arsenal and saw Song Zining talking to a young girl at the door.
Behind the desk, Mr. Lu leaned back in his chair and dozed off, snoring slightly. However, the moment Qianye stepped out of the alloy threshold, Lu Lao's left eye suddenly opened a slit, and the first sight fell on Dongyue in Qianye's hand, and a faint light flashed across.
At this time, the personal guard walked quickly to the front of the stage, handed over the two plaques with both hands, and said, "Old Lu, we have already selected the equipment, please have a look."
Mr. Lu lazily changed his sitting position, and then propped up his eyelids. He took the plates and glanced at them. They were a level 5 gun and the nameplate of the ancient sword Dongyue. An Renyi's name, date and purpose of taking it out had been recorded in the access information column.
Mr. Lu seemed to be a little dizzy, his hands trembled, and he took the sign a little closer, almost touching the tip of his nose. During this movement, with a light touch of his little finger inadvertently, the name column of "Ancient Sword Dongyue" suddenly faded away and quietly changed into "Unfinished Epee".
Lu Lao raised his hand and threw the two plaques to the arsenal steward next to him for filing, then yawned, waved his hand at Song Zining who was about to say something, and said, "Okay, okay, your people are always meticulous in their work, You can go. My old man has to sleep for a while, there is an all-night poker game tonight, the old man must kill the old man for his pants!"
Song Zining grinned and said, "I'm going to drink with my friends tonight, so I won't come over to watch the battle and cheer. I wish you the best of luck."
Old Lu's eyes were completely closed, he only waved his hands, and the snoring sounded again.
At this time, the girl next to Song Zining said in a coquettish voice, "Brother Zining, you haven't been back for a long time, what are you drinking tonight, aren't you going to fool around with my brother again?"
Song Zining's smile was as gentle as the warm spring breeze, "I just arrived in the afternoon, and I haven't even seen Zhiyuan's face yet!"
When he raised his head, he saw Qianye was standing opposite and looked at them curiously. A hint of malice flashed in his eyes, and he beckoned, "Xiao An, come here." Then he said to the girl: "This is my brother, An Renyi. .”
The girl turned around, looking at Qianye with a pair of big eyes full of longing. She was about fourteen or five years old, her head only reached Qianye's chest, her figure was petite and exquisite, but her face was radiantly beautiful, such a contrast constituted a very unique sense of beauty.
The girl yelled generously, "Brother An!"
Qianye was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say, so he responded indiscriminately, only to hear Song Zining say with a smile in his voice: "Yun Qing is my clan sister, the daughter of Uncle Gu Xun."
At this time, a group of people at the door seemed to have been waiting for some time, and one of them called the girl by name. Song Zining said goodbye to the girl with a smile, grabbed Qianye by the shoulders, and pulled him out the door.
The leader of that team was actually a warrior. Seeing Song Zining give way, he came up and respectfully said to the old man behind the desk with his eyes closed: "Old Lu, the mountain returns to the hall, Mr. He, Miss Jing Chu's guest warriors came to collect the equipment, and Miss Yun Qing wanted to enter the third-level weapons area to change her outfits."
Judging from the names reported by the generals, this team is all descendants of the Song Clan. There are more than 20 people on the current successor list of the Song Clan, and less than half of them are direct descendants. Although there has been no precedent for a side branch to take the position of the lord for hundreds of years, the position of the elder is that those concubines and side branches can Competing.
At this time, Old Lu was snoring continuously, and he didn't intend to wake up at all. The captain seemed to have known this beforehand, so he didn't take it seriously, and opened the book on the desk to find the records of the guest warriors. A steward came out from behind and sent them into the arsenal.
The captain didn't follow in, but stayed outside, and whispered to the steward, "Steward Li, why did Mr. Lu come out today?"
Li Guanshi also lowered his voice and said: "Old Lu has deep meaning in everything he does, how do I know? But I think what he means, maybe he wants to see if the young people who take the big exam this time have any talents to support them Let's help each other?"
The captain's eyes lit up, and he said enviously, "If that's the case, then it's a good fortune. I don't know which kid can have such good luck."
In the courtyard outside the arsenal, Qianye and Song Zining stood at the bottom of the steps, waiting for the guards to drive over.
Song Zining still hooked Qianye's shoulders, and said with a soft smile, "How about that girl just now? If you are interested, I can help you become a great matchmaker. After the final exam, I will marry her back home."
Qianye was taken aback, and almost thought he had something wrong with his ears. He had never thought of marrying a wife, let alone such a noble girl. "Is she the count's daughter?"
"It's just Uncle Xun. It sounds good, and it can't be hereditary. You just need to spend money to donate enough military expenses to the empire." Song Zining waved his hand nonchalantly, and began to spare no effort to explain all the benefits.
In his words, it is a shortcut to save thirty years of struggle. Take this girl from the Yunqing family as an example. She is the only daughter of Uncle Gu Xun, and her dowry is extremely rich, at least the equipment cost of a division at the level of the main army.
These days, there are people with money and equipment, and there are a lot of people who are not afraid of death. So marrying a wife, Qianye's battalion-sized small army can jump to the division level in an instant, and at least be the lord of a city in the Evernight Continent.
Moreover, with Song Zining's unscrupulous style, Qianye was immediately relieved that it was not only possible to have one wife. In the future, if you meet someone you like, or someone with a rich dowry, you can marry again. Although the empire has strict regulations on flat wives, it is not so particular in the Evernight Continent.
As for the fact that the original wives may cause trouble, it is not a problem. As long as Qianye's force continues to grow, no one will dare to raise his head and speak in front of him when he goes all the way. Therefore, as much strength as you have, you can marry as many wives as possible.
Song Zining finally concluded that this is "dowry changes destiny".
When Song Zining finished speaking, Qianye was already dumbfounded. He only felt that his words were so unreasonable that he couldn't even refute them. However, Song Zining still looked forward to it, and when he responded, Qianye said with a headache, "That girl is underage, right?"
Song Zining was stunned, "What does being an adult have to do with getting married?"
The two looked at each other for a while, and Song Zining suddenly said, "You like mature women? That's fine, I know two or three."
Qianye was already too lazy to pay attention to him.
Song Zining said to himself: "Could it be that you are thinking about the issue of children now, and don't let those women who you don't like very much just stop giving birth to them. It's not easy for women to have children, but it's even more difficult if they can't give birth?"
He looked at Qianye, and said suspiciously: "You don't even know this, do you? The fish slaves of the Yinquan Merchant Group are best at room art. Haven't you used it well? How about it? I took a pair of sister flowers, and I will share one with you tonight."
Qianye couldn't bear it anymore, a moderate elbow hit Song Zining's ribs, threw him away from his shoulder, and strode towards the slowly approaching off-road vehicle.
When Qianye got into the car, the whole off-road vehicle suddenly sank to the bottom, and the body made a slight creaking sound. Although this car focuses on lightness and speed, and does not highlight the load-carrying performance, it is still surprising that it can be crushed like this.
Song Zining rushed over from behind and stretched out his hand to lift "Dongyue" when he saw it, but he couldn't lift it after he picked it up, so he couldn't help showing a look of surprise. Using his original force, he weighed the weight of the long sword, and said with a surprised smile: "Good thing, just suitable for the group arena."
Although a heavy weapon consumes a lot of force, it is a powerful weapon in an arena with limited space for dodging and maneuvering. As long as the user can control the situation, he can perfectly interpret the tactics of one force and ten games.
On the way back, Qianye found out why Song Zining came out of Wendao Manor so early. He didn't see the elders in charge of family affairs. It was said that there were distinguished guests from other families, and the elders went to receive them. Although this matter is very confidential, Song Zining has his own channels to inquire about the news.
Speaking of this, Song Zining couldn't help but sneered and said, "What a distinguished guest, it's Zhao Jundu, those old men are getting more and more out of tune."
Qianye was also quite surprised. Zhao Jundu may be able to represent half of Zhao Clan's leader Zhao Weihuang in terms of authority, but he is still a junior anyway, and he has not yet been formally knighted. The Song Clan gave him such super courtesy. What I lost was my own face. After all, the two families are in the same rank as the four valves. If the posture is too low, it is not only a sign of etiquette, but a vivid statement that one has retired.
Qianye thought for a while and asked, "Is the Song Clan asking for Zhao Clan?"
Song Zining was stunned, Qianye's mind was pure and straightforward, although he was not good at strategy, he saw things clearly because of this, and often hit the vital points directly, this was the case in military strategy and martial arts, but he didn't want to have such acumen in family politics.
Song Zining said: "The position of my elder brother Song Zicheng's main wife has been vacant. There are rumors that he is planning to marry the daughter of the clan. In fact, it's not just because his family wants to keep the position of the next lord. The approach of getting closer may have already won the acquiescence of most of the elders of the Song Clan. And the Zhao Clan is a hard-core imperial party." That's why those elders are so friendly to the Zhao Clan, and with Zhao Jundu's talent, it is very likely that they will become The next valve owner.
The Song Zicheng mentioned by Song Zining is the eldest son of his generation, the eldest grandson of the current lord, who is nearly thirty years old, has broken through as a general three years ago, and has been involved in family affairs for many years. He is the leader of this generation regardless of age, force, and ability, and has always been ranked first in the order of succession.
With the current situation of the Song Clan, it is very likely that the throne will be passed on from one generation to the next. Therefore, Song Zicheng is the most popular candidate for the next Clan Clan.
Qianye has now fully understood the cause and effect.
The weakness of the Song Dynasty has reached the verge of danger. Seeing that there are no masters who can support the overall situation in the three generations, for a huge family with great wealth, and even the dowry of branch daughters can affect the division-level armed forces, it is like a pack of wolves. lamb. The family members below may not dare to do anything yet, and they don't have so many scruples if they are also members of the family.
You must know that the elites of the empire are not born with these surnames, nor are they fixed. In the thousand-year history of the empire, nine surnames stood side by side in the heyday of the clan, but in the least there were only three.
However, the Song Clan and the Zhang Clan ancestors really had a grudge, and now that An Guogong's wife is still there, the Zhang Clan didn't make any big moves. But Zhang Boqian is in full swing, and the martial arts has not yet come to an end. If there is any change in the future, the Zhang Clan will probably be the first to attack the Song Clan.
But from Qianye's point of view, the Song Clan is now moving closer to the imperial family, which is really not a good choice. The current situation of the Song Clan is different from that of Zhao Weihuang. The heir marries the daughter of the clan or even the princess of the imperial family, which can keep the succession of the lord and the Duke, but wants to further keep the position of the Song Clan in the empire. A woman with such a big Does it work
Qianye only saw Song Zining's slightly sarcastic expression, and knew that he didn't take it seriously either.
However, Qianye didn't want to comment on the Song Clan's internal affairs, and was a little worried, "Will Zhao Jundu be against you?" The Song Clan held the Zhao Clan in such a way, if Zhao Jundu made a slight criticism, it might cause Song Zining a lot of trouble.
Song Zining shook his head and said, "You don't have to worry about that. It's possible for him to kill me directly. It's impossible to use the hands of the Song Clan to exert pressure."
Qianye couldn't help frowning upon hearing this. At this time, the off-road vehicle was parked outside a huge courtyard at the foot of Yunshan Mountain. Song Zining smiled and said, "Changyin Pavilion is here, so I won't get drunk tonight, and leave other troublesome things for tomorrow!"
On the cornerstone of the third step in front of you is a resplendent palace, the doors and windows on three sides are wide open, and the sound of singing, dancing and music is lingering. Because most of the business is negotiated at banquets, the song and dance girls of the Song clan and their delicacies and wines have always been extremely famous.
