The Book of Heaven

Chapter 258 Chapter [-] I'm Not Worried
"Actually, we have already received wind of this matter, but we didn't tell you because of the matter between you and Mingyue."

In fact, what Ma Zheng wants to ask is, since you didn't plan to tell me at the beginning, what do you mean by telling me now?
Zhuge Yashan's meaning was also very clear, he just wanted to make a comparison.Whether it is Princess Qingping's daughter Ying Gu, or the Zhao family's rising star Zhao Shuying, the Zhuge family can turn a blind eye. As long as Ma Zheng is willing to nod, then his engagement with Zhuge Mingyue will be unstoppable.

In the end, it was Ma Zheng who was tangled up in the matter, and he did not make a final statement until he left the small courtyard of Zhuge Yashan.

Until the news, Zhuge Mingyue also sat by the window all night.

"Miss, you should go to sleep for a while, or your body won't be able to take it anymore." At this time, Zhuge Xingxing had already scolded Ma Zheng completely in his heart. If she knew witchcraft, she would definitely use a needle to stab that nasty guy to pieces.

"Xing Xing, I'm fine, ah, it's dawn so soon."

"Hurry up?" Zhuge Xingxing yawned. The young lady was not asleep, so naturally she couldn't sleep either.

Rejecting Zhuge Xingxing's idea of ​​preparing breakfast for herself, Zhuge Mingyue chose to tidy herself up. What she thought about last night was not the future of her marriage with Ma Zheng, but the future of the promising Zhuge family.

Each family has its own advantages, but also its own disadvantages.

Now the huge Han Empire has demonstrated its mighty military power to the whole world. The soldiers and horses under the command of several kings with different surnames are the first to bear the brunt. Many ordinary people have forgotten this family that once had such a great man as Mr. Zhuge Kongming.

As time goes by, what Zhuge Yashan is worried about is that Zhuge's family will gradually fall into a complete workshop, a workshop that is powerful in producing ordnance, but has no status in the royal family, court, or even the entire empire. At that time, Zhuge's family will really be over, and it will be completely reduced to someone else's tool.

Zhuge Mingyue is a smart woman. She has been familiar with history books since she was a child, and studied various schools of thought. With her extraordinary wisdom and memory, she has become a pearl with both wisdom and beauty.But this doesn't change the fact that she is a member of the Zhuge family, and the crueler fact is that she is always a woman.

A woman, if she has such a powerful talent in martial arts as Zhao Shuying, then she can enjoy her life, no matter how crazy her behavior is, as long as she has never been defeated, no one can stop her.However, a woman like Zhuge Mingyue who is only wise but powerless can only bow to reality in the end.

So Zhuge Mingyue had hoped countless times that she could make achievements in martial arts, but the facts mercilessly disappointed her time and time again.In a world where force is paramount, a woman without strength can only become a man's vassal, and no matter how outstanding Zhuge Mingyue is, she can't change this result.

Yesterday Zhuge Yashan once said a word, which Zhuge Mingyue firmly remembered.

He said: If Ma Zheng didn't have Zhuge Mingyue in his heart, he would have already agreed to get engaged!
After she came back, Zhuge Mingyue thought about it carefully, and thought that Grandpa's analysis was correct. She could also see that Ma Zheng was not the kind of stupid warrior with muscles in his head. This person had his own ideas, otherwise he wouldn't be bold He proposed to ask for three members of the Zhuge family workshop-this was something that the royal family did not succeed in the past.

"Since Ma Zheng already has my place in Ma Zheng's heart, why should I bother so much? I will get engaged to Ma Zheng first. I think that when the time comes, people who care about Ma Zheng will naturally appear. At that time, everyone will compete according to their own abilities. Regardless of who wins or loses, at least our Zhuge family's reputation has already been established."

When Zhuge Xingxing was combing Zhuge Mingyue's hair while complaining about Ma Zheng, Zhuge Mingyue had already figured out many things.

"Follow me to see Grandpa, and then Ma Zheng."

"Huh? Miss, you still want to see that Deng Tuzi? Why bother, he already has two women." Zhuge Xingxing seemed to be dissatisfied with Zhuge Mingyue's decision, but after all, this matter is not something that a little girl like her can do. changed.

As Zhuge Xingxing, of course she didn't even have the qualifications to enter Zhuge Yashan's courtyard, so she didn't know why Zhuge Mingyue insisted on visiting her ancestors, and then Zhuge Mingyue took Zhuge Xingxing directly to Ma Zheng.

"Miss Mingyue is here, welcome."

"Xing Xing, you should go make tea, Ma Zheng, you are really short of someone who will take care of your daily necessities." Zhuge Mingyue had a smile on her face, which made Ma Zheng murmur a little, wondering what Zhuge Mingyue came this time for what.

"I heard that you want this. I just went to find my grandfather, and he just asked me to bring it here for you."

What Zhuge Mingyue placed on the table were two jade bottles.

"This is."

Looking at the two jade bottles, Ma Zheng's face changed slightly. Even though Zhuge Mingyue didn't say so, and Ma Zheng didn't open it, he already guessed that the two jade bottles must be filled with chalcedony, and definitely not That common stuff.

If Ma Zheng guessed correctly, the jade bottle must contain intermediate chalcedony, that is, the intermediate chalcedony of wood and water attributes promised by Zhuge Weilan and Zhuge Mingxin.

Although it is not certain whether the Zhuge family only have these two bottles of intermediate chalcedony suitable for Ma Zheng, since Zhuge Mingyue took out these two bottles of chalcedony now, it has already expressed enough sincerity.

"What does the old man mean?"

A hint of cunning flashed in Zhuge Mingyue's eyes, and she said, "Why, are you afraid that after taking these two bottles of chalcedony, you won't be able to get engaged to me?"

I didn't expect Zhuge Mingyue to be so straightforward. Even though she sounded like she was joking, Ma Zheng was still taken aback. It's really hard to answer this question.

"Then let me ask you, if, if you were really asked to choose, which one would you choose?" No matter how courageous Zhuge Mingyue was, it was impossible for him to speak clearly, but Ma Zheng also understood what Zhuge Mingyue meant.

From the perspective of guaranteeing the relationship with Zhuge's family, two bottles of chalcedony are nothing at all, but for Ma Zheng's martial arts cultivation, Zhuge Mingyue seems to be far less important than two bottles of intermediate chalcedony.

"If you are in charge of managing the chalcedony inventory of the entire Zhuge family, then this multiple-choice question is very simple."

"Well, maybe I can also bring it up to my grandfather. He has always cared about me very much. Don't you think that these two bottles of chalcedony were just given to me?"

Although Zhuge Mingyue's words seemed to be joking along with Ma Zheng's words, Ma Zheng was not the kind of boy who was new to love, and he could understand the meaning contained in these words as soon as he heard them.

If Ma Zheng couldn't make a decision under such circumstances, it would be too sad for Zhuge Mingyue, a peerless woman.

"Is it really worth it for you to make such a huge sacrifice?"

Putting the chalcedony on the table into his bag, Ma Zheng asked.

"At first, I didn't know if it was worth it, and I was even worried, but when you asked, I suddenly didn't feel worried."
