The Mingyue of the Tang Dynasty and the Guan Dynasty of the Song Dynasty Main Volume Chapter 261: The Engagement Su Chen was shocked for a moment. He felt a little sudden about Han Xizai's proposal. However, after thinking about it carefully, he and Qingqing really needed a conclusion.

.

Although Qingqing didn't speak, she said how much she liked him and how much she loved him, but Qingqing repeatedly sacrificed her life to save others, stayed in Su's house, and took his room as her own. This was actually the expression of the violent girl's feelings.

.

She will not be gentle and quiet, say some sweet words, and create a scene of flowers in front of the moon to express her love. That is not in line with Peng Qingqing's character.

And Su Chen had just arrived in Southern Tang Dynasty for two months. As he gradually adapted to his identity and social background, he was not keen on romantic matters. In addition, in his previous life, he was a straight man who had no girlfriend, so he did not have any love affairs.

The experience of love.

From this point of view, Su Chen and Qing Qing were friends in times of need, and gradually they fell in love with each other, but neither of them said it in person.

At this time, Magistrate Peng had exposed his words, and Han Xizai took the initiative to help with the matchmaking, so Su Chen had no reason or excuse to refuse.

What's more, he doesn't want to hurt Qingqing, he also has a good impression of her, and the engagement is not unacceptable.

"Qingqing and I have known each other since we were young. Although she is the daughter of a magistrate, she treats people sincerely and has no contempt for me, a down-and-out scholar. She has also helped me many times, rescued me, solved my problems, and even used her own money to solve my problems.

I, Su Chen, am in danger. Of course I can't ask for a wife like this! However, I just broke off my engagement with Miss Su Su of the Bai family and promised her not to get married for three years. I can't break my promise and break the contract. Therefore, for the time being, I can only marry Su Su first.

We will get engaged and get married three years later. I wonder if Uncle Peng can accept it, and whether Qingqing will accept it."

Su Chen said it sincerely and did not want to hide anything, because the relationship between Bai Susu and Peng Qingqing was that of best friends, and Peng Zeliang had long known about the affairs between the three of them, so it would be safer for him to be more honest.

After listening, Peng Zeliang fell into a brief silence. He could not escape from Su Chen's answer. Although he was not completely satisfied, at least he did not misunderstand the person.

He was not ungrateful or evasive, and he proactively admitted that he liked Qingqing, which made Peng Zeliang feel happy and gained a lot of face.

"As a true man in this world, he should abide by his promises. Since you promised Bai Susu, you must fulfill your oath. There is nothing wrong with this. Although three years is a long time, you and Qingqing are not too old. You can decide to get married first. After three years

Just get married again."

Peng Zeliang made a considerate gesture, and he felt sorry for his daughter, and he did not want to marry her off at the age of sixteen for the time being. When she was nineteen, although she would be a little older, she could still stay at home for three years, and she would still be able to stay at home for three years.

I can spend more time with him.

In addition, he also wanted to observe Su Chen's performance in the past two or three years to see if he could pass the Jinshi and make greater progress and achievements.

Seeing that both Su Chen and Peng Zeliang had no objections, Han Xizai smiled and said, "Congratulations to both of them. From now on, they will be Weng and son-in-law."

Peng Zeliang waved his hand and said: "Before we get married, we can't talk about our husband-in-law. It depends on Yixuan's performance in the future."

Su Chen smiled awkwardly. Hearing what Magistrate Peng meant, he would continue to test him before getting married.

Governor Wang and Duke Ning also congratulated Peng Zeliang one after another. After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this Su Chen is extremely talented and rare in this world. He will be like nothing else in the world!

Ning Guogong said half-jokingly, half with emotion: "If Brother Peng Xian hadn't made a move earlier, Xu would have been unable to resist recruiting Yixuan as his son-in-law."

Peng Zeliang laughed and said, "No way, that talented woman in Brother Xu's family has a higher eye than most people, but most people don't like her."

Ning Guogong sighed: "Well, just because your eyes are higher than your head, you are already nearly 20 years old. You haven't married yet and you have become an old girl. What should you do when you get older in the future? It's rare for someone like Yixuan to appear.

Every poem and song written by the young talent would inevitably arouse Qingwan's interest. She copied it many times in the study, and continued to read and recite it aloud. She also often studied the symbolic algorithms that Yixuan taught her at home.

She ran to the Su Mansion no matter what, I have never seen her care so much about someone."

Everyone was suddenly enlightened when they heard this. It seemed that Su Chen's charm had even affected Runzhou's most talented girl, Xu Qingwan, Na Nizi.

"Haha, Yixuan's charm is really great!" Han Xizai laughed, finding this kind of late-life charm very interesting.

Peng Zeliang had a smile on his face, but his heart tightened slightly. He couldn't help but glance at Su Chen, thinking that he would have to tell Su Chen more in the future not to mess with Xu Cainv. She must have a noble status, outstanding talents, and she would definitely not be a concubine.

, he might become Qingqing’s enemy in the future.

The banquet continued, with everyone drinking, talking and laughing, and it was quite interesting.

During the dinner, they also talked about the poem Su Chen wrote about "Liu Hou Lun". Some of them were puzzled by the words and asked Su Chen face to face why he wrote that sentence, but Su Chen found appropriate excuses to evade it.

After the family banquet in the Han Mansion, Su Chen was sent back to the Su family's residence by Han Yunpeng.

"Brother Su, are you really going to take the imperial examination?"

Su Chen nodded and said: "Well, let's give it a try. If I pass the imperial examination and get an official position in the future, as for the business matters, it will not be affected. Maybe I have been working in the court for a few years and I don't want to do it anymore, so I will

Resign and go into business."

Han Yunpeng said worriedly: "However, my father once told me that officialdom is a big dye vat, and it is also a point of no return. Once you step into it, you will either become a low-level official and be ignorant, or you can only move forward and be powerful;

Otherwise, it is easy to become a victim. Even if you resign on your own initiative, your opponents may not be willing to let you go in the future. The people will not fight with the rich, and the rich will not fight with the officials. If you want to be an official, if you offend others, you must always

Go big and high, and officials who have offended you will have nothing to do with you."

After Su Chen listened carefully, he felt that these words were quite reasonable, but there was no turning back when he opened his bow, so he could only take one step at a time.

After getting off the carriage, Su Chen returned to the mansion alone. Han Yunpeng was a little afraid of seeing Qing Qing, so he got on the carriage and left without entering the door.

When Su Chen returned to the house, he found that Xu Qingwan, Liu Monong, Ling'er, and Zhou Jiamin were playing mahjong in the main reception hall. Qing Qing was missing. He asked out of curiosity: "Where is Qing Qing?"

Yang Ling'er said: "Sister Qingqing has gone back to her room. Just now, the maid from Peng Mansion came to deliver the news, saying that Magistrate Peng has promoted Jiangning Prefecture and will move to Jinling City in a few days. The maid was ordered to come and invite Sister Qingqing back.

We packed our luggage and we will go to Jinling to settle together soon, so Sister Qingqing went back to her room angrily."

This was because she was angry. Her father had been promoted several levels in a row, and other people wouldn't be able to jump up and down with excitement. It was better for her to go back to her room and sulk.

Liu Mo Nong was more attentive and said: "Brother Su, please go over and visit. Qing Qing doesn't seem to want to go to Jinling."

"I know, you can continue playing." Su Chen sighed in his heart, is this silly girl really so emotional?
