Chapter 1337

Pan Mingwei's right hand holding the fan was tense with blue veins.

He knew that shopkeeper Guan was a strong one, so he lowered his figure to save face.

But the other party didn't show affection at all.

He invited the pavilion chief and Wu Juren.

The most respectable person in Pingning Town.

He narrowed his eyes slightly.

Forget it, it was him that shopkeeper Guan looked down upon. Even if he invited the county magistrate's uncle to come forward, the other party only needed to say: My daughter is young, don't rush to talk about marriage, and she can dismiss him lightly.

He is quite strong and has a personality. The uncle and mother who have been humiliated will not let him go easily.

Moreover, the shopkeeper Guan does not allow oil and salt, and even the uncle can't threaten it blatantly.

As a court official, there are some things that can only be understood but not expressed in words.

For example, taking advantage of the power to rob the women of the people.

How could the parent officer of a county help his nephew to seize someone by force?
How to operate behind the scenes is the same thing. On the bright side, no one will fall into the trap of talking and leave behind.

But he couldn't do it behind his back.

Miss Guan is the wife he wants Ming Mei to marry, and she is the one who will stay together for a lifetime.

How can we rudely rob and marry?
So he had to deal with shopkeeper Guan head-on.

Marriage is a major event, it is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.

As long as shopkeeper Guan agrees, Miss Guan has to marry even if she is not satisfied with herself.

If, if she really doesn't like it, it doesn't matter.

He won't force it, as long as he sees her every day and can be with her, he is satisfied.

As for the difficult old man, the fact that he can't do anything behind his back doesn't mean he can't.

Still the same sentence, his heart for Miss Guan is a lesson from heaven and earth.

It's been a long time to see people's hearts, whether it's my father-in-law or Miss Guan, one day I will understand his sincerity.

"The current sage will observe the ceremony next year, and the ceremony will become a pro-government..."

Guan Xiuyuan's heart trembled, he didn't know what he meant by mentioning being a pilgrim.

Looking up slowly, he saw a serious expression on his face.

"The imperial court has issued an official document requiring all prefectures and counties to report unmarried and beautiful women aged 13 to 15 within their jurisdiction to be selected and sent to Beijing to fill the harem for the Holy One..."

Guan Xiuyuan's face turned pale.

The palace wants to draft girls?
This had nothing to do with his daughter.

But the person in front of him obviously wants to make a fuss about it.

"Miss Guan is as beautiful as a celestial being, and she is unparalleled in beauty. Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that there are few people who can match her. Sending such a stunning beauty to the palace will definitely win the favor of the emperor. It is a major achievement of the local parents and officials. For the girl to become a noble person in the palace is also a great thing for the glory of the ancestors..."

Guan Xiuyuan's hands trembled slightly.

The palace was out of reach for him.

The people living in the palace have nothing to do with him.

It is even more impossible for his precious daughter to have any relationship with the royal family.

That's the place where people can eat people without spitting out their bones.

He doesn't care whether his precious daughter is noble or not, and he doesn't need his daughter to honor his ancestors.

As long as his precious daughter is safe and happy, going smoothly and worry-free, it is better than anything else.

His precious daughter doesn't need to wrong herself, and doesn't need to share a husband with others.

"Young Master Laopan, worry about it. The little girl already has a marriage contract, so she is not eligible to participate in the draft."

Guan Xiuyuan suppressed the anger in his heart and tried his best to speak calmly.

Originally, the girl was still young and was not in a hurry to get married. He and the child's mother wanted to stay for a few more years, but now it was too late, and they had to make a marriage contract before the emperor's list.

He quickly summed up the generals, and after much deliberation, he felt that Ye Xusheng was the most suitable.

The Guan family has a very close relationship with the old Ye family. Big brother Ye is honest and calm, and the boy Sheng is good-natured, quiet and introverted. .

Without him to clean up the mess, the consequences would be disastrous.
