The pit is 1 meter deep, and the ring is set up to choose the wife
In the forty-eighth year of Haoze in Donggao Kingdom, early summer suddenly arrived, and the sky was clear.
In the early morning, when the first ray of sunshine poured on the streets of Dongcheng, the entire Dongcheng ushered in an incredible event.
"Dong dong dong - clang clang clang -"
The deafening sound of gongs and drums suddenly sounded on the crowded street.
"What's going on over there? It's so lively?" The uninformed people curiously grabbed the pedestrians who were rushing forward.
Many people stopped and explained excitedly: "Don't you know? Today is the day when Chu Jingchen, the victorious general known as the most beautiful man in Donggao Kingdom, personally sets up the arena to select the general's wife!"
"What? Choosing a wife? Didn't he just marry Qiao Yiqing, the prime minister's legitimate daughter?" The pedestrian's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Brother, you don't even know this! The day before yesterday, Chu Jingchen kicked Qiao Yiqing out of the general's mansion without caring about the face of the emperor and the prime minister. He also claimed that he had beaten her every time he saw her. Qiao Yiqing was humiliated, and the next day she was beaten by the prime minister.
He hanged himself, but was later discovered by a maid and saved his life. No, in order to ridicule Qiao Yiqing, Chu Jingchen deliberately set up a ring on the street to choose his wife."
"Yes, General Chu's actions have simply made it impossible for the Prime Minister to come to Taiwan. Look, even the brothel girls are participating in the competition. Isn't this a slap in the face of Prime Minister Qiao and Qiao Yiqing? Oh——"
"Stop talking, stop talking, go watch the competition, I heard there are quite a few women signing up!"
After saying that, a large group of people continued to jog and swarmed towards the place where the arena was set up.
When other people heard the news, they followed curiously.
This was the first time they had witnessed the strange event of a general setting up a ring to choose his wife.
At this time, a giant arena had been set up in the huge square. The arena was packed with people, and the surrounding area was filled with people's exclamations and discussions. The marriage between Chu Jingchen and Qiao Yiqing also rolled past everyone like a snowball.
child's mouth.
"Dongqiang——"
The gongs and drums sounded again, and at this time, an old man over fifty years old came to the ring.
He was dressed in rich clothes, looked around at everyone, and announced with a smile: "Dear fellow villagers, I am General Chu's housekeeper, Lao Ou. Today is the big day for my general to choose his wife. As long as he reaches the marriage age and is not married,
of young women are eligible to participate in the competition.”
The old man paused, with a smile on his face: "Now please allow me to announce the rules of the competition. First, women who want to participate in the competition must register to be eligible. Second, women who take the stage can show what they are best at.
Talent, if you need to wield a sword or a gun, do not hurt anyone's life. Third, cheating is not allowed in the ring, and you will be severely punished if found. If a woman's talent is favored by the general, she will be carried into the general's mansion on an eight-carriage sedan.
, to become the legitimate general’s wife of Donggao Kingdom. Do you hear me clearly?”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, all the women in the audience blushed and responded softly with excitement: "It's clear——"
"Okay - bang bang bang -"
At this time, a sonorous and powerful male voice suddenly sounded, and waves of crisp applause hit everyone's ears.
Everyone looked up and saw a man in a blue brocade robe walking slowly out of the crowd.
"Wow, look, it's General Chu!"
His fair face has sharp edges and corners, and is extremely handsome. His magnificent eyes release a soul-stirring light. With a gentle sweep, countless women are fascinated by him. His body is straightened out by his blue clothes, making him look like a suave man.
The young master doesn't look like an old man who is unkempt on the battlefield.
"Oh my God, it's really him. He's so handsome. He is truly the most handsome man in Donggao Country!"
All the women pushed and shoved each other excitedly, vying to get a glimpse of Chu Jingchen's face.
When Chu Jingchen heard the women's discussion, the corners of his eyes slightly raised, and a contemptuous sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He has seen this kind of out-of-control scenes too many times. The most indispensable thing in this world is stupid women.
"Look, Chu Jingchen smiled, he smiled!"
When the women saw Chu Jingchen's smile, they couldn't calm down and screamed.
And just when everyone was in chaos, a luxurious purple sedan slowly came forward——
"Miss, the front is completely surrounded and the sedan cannot pass!" The slightly anxious voice of the maid Zizhu came from outside the sedan.
"Get rid of the crowd——"
"But-Miss-"
Zizhu's eyelids jumped when she heard the lady's cold voice. There were so many people ahead, how could she catch them!
"Go quickly!"
The slightly angry scolding made people shudder. Zizhu trembled in fright and walked forward tremblingly.
She shouted while pulling away the crowd: "My lady is going over, please give way -"
The crowd standing at the back was blocked by Zizhu and immediately screamed: "Oh, aren't you Zizhu, the little maid of the Prime Minister's Mansion who serves the nymphomaniac's daughter?"
With such a shout, many people cast strange glances. Seeing the purple sedan that belonged to Qiao Yiqing, the prime minister's daughter-in-law, everyone's eyebrows were full of ridicule, and they all laughed: "Hey, who am I talking about?"
