Chapter 684 Playing their respective roles well [Please subscribe & ask for monthly tickets]

"Ah?" Fu Nian and Zhang Liang were both confused.

They could all see that Gongsun Linglong had actually initially fallen for Zhang Liang. In terms of appearance and temperament, Zhang Liang was a perfect match for the young master, as beautiful as jade and unparalleled in the world.

But Gongsun Linglong suddenly chose Yan Lu, and Yan Lu didn't object, which made the two of them very confused.

"A wonderful woman like Linglong doesn't want her career to be constrained by marriage, and Zifang is too ambitious, so even if Linglong is attracted by Zifang's beauty, she can hold back."

"but me……"

Yan Lu explained calmly, still looking nonchalant.

"Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. Just think of it as being possessed by a ghost!"

"Huh?" Fu Nian clenched his fists and wanted to hit someone.

They are two beauties from a famous family, and they are the most outstanding women in the world today. They are top-notch in both appearance and talent. I let you marry them, but you actually said that you were sleep-paralyzed by a ghost?
Zhang Liang finally understood where he lost.

Gongsun Linglong is a career-oriented strong woman, so naturally she doesn't want her marriage to affect her career. Yan Lu's indifference and laziness best fits Gongsun Linglong's standards for choosing a partner.

"Will the Yan family agree?" Fu Nian asked with a frown.

Yan Lu can just sit back and do nothing, but will Yan Zi's lineage allow their mistress to show up in public?
"They can't beat me!" Yan Lu still looked indifferent.

"..." Fu Nian and Zhang Liang were silent.

You...are indescribable!
"Actually, when it comes to marriage, you just have to get used to it!" Yan Lu continued.

"?" Fu Nian and Zhang Liang were confused again.

"With a family background like ours, how is it possible for two people to fall in love with each other?" Yan Lu looked at Fu Nian.

Fu Nian is also going to get married, and the other party is also from a big Confucian family. But Fu Nian has never even seen what the other party looks like, so she got engaged anyway?

Therefore, being well-matched is very important, but everything else is not important at all.

"In a marriage, both parties play their respective roles well and support each other!" Yan Lu continued.

Fu Nian nodded, that was indeed the case.

It doesn’t matter whether you like it or not.

Back then in the Tangxi Sword Alliance, they also met Shao Siming, Yan Lingji and other beauties in the world. Who didn’t have a crush on someone when they were young?
But they all knew that it was just the boy's admiration and could not be taken seriously.

Play the roles of husband and wife in marriage, and then be a good father, and that's it for your life.

One thing that makes Yan Lu better than all of them is that Gongsun Linglong's talent and beauty are both first-class in the world, at least they are pleasing to the eye!
"So, as a betrothal gift, the Yan family will take action to destroy the Chunyu lineage!" Yan Lu said lightly.

Fu Nian and Zhang Liang nodded. They had no doubt that Yan Zi's lineage had the ability.

There are many branches of Confucianism, but the strongest ones are always those few ones. The lineage of Yan Zi has always been second only to Confucius, and is even not much different from the lineage of Mencius.

"So, Lu will go back to Yan's house to prepare first!" Yan Lu stood up and said goodbye.

Fu Nian and Zhang Liang bowed to say farewell.

"Ah..." After Yan Lu left, Fu Nian and Zhang Liang both sighed. No one expected that after just one meeting, Yan Lu and Gongsun Linglong actually decided on their lifelong events!

This was so sudden, so sudden that it caught people off guard.

As for the famous families and Yan Zi's lineage, would they oppose this marriage?

Neither Fu Nian nor Zhang Liang thought so.

Although Gongsun Linglong's status is higher than Yan Lu's now, in terms of family background, the two are equally matched and are truly a match made in heaven.

The marriage between the two families was welcomed by both the Ming family and Yan Zi's lineage, and there was no possibility of opposition. "I will find a good match for Zifang!" Fu Nian patted Zhang Liang's shoulder.

In fact, his original intention was to find a backer for Zhang Liang, an opportunity for the Zhang family to regain its glory.

It’s a pity that Gongsun Linglong, as the foreign minister of Bingzhou, was too independent and could resist her own desires and chose Yan Lu.

"Thank you, senior brother!" Zhang Liang also knew that he was still too impatient.

If he didn't have such big ambitions, perhaps Gongsun Linglong would choose him.

It’s a pity that Gongsun Linglong has become his sister-in-law now!

"Destroying the Chunyu lineage is also a big deal. We have to go back to Xiaoshengxianzhuang to make preparations!" Fu Nian said.

After all, it was to destroy a large branch. Even if Yan Zi's lineage joined forces with famous masters, as the head of Confucianism, Fu Nian still had to respond and eliminate the impact.

Zhang Liang also nodded.

Gongsun Linglong was in a good mood when she returned to the embassy. She didn't expect that she could settle her lifelong event during this trip, and it was settled after just one meeting. Now she feels that it was a bit hasty.

However, she was also annoyed when she thought about the elders in the clan urging her to get married.

"Go and find out about Yan Lu's preferences and personality!" Gongsun Linglong thought about it and decided to use public resources for personal gain. She asked the Bingzhou Military Control Commission to help her find out Yan Lu's preferences and reputation in Qi and Lu.

"The patriarch was a bit careless!" The second elder of the Ming family still hasn't come back to his senses.

The two young people decided their lifelong events in this way!

But when you think about Yan Lu's family background, it is indeed good, and it also meets the mate selection criteria that the famous family set for Gongsun Linglong.

At first he was a little worried that Gongsun Linglong would choose Zhang Liang.

Although Zhang Liang was a very good person, the Zhang family was in decline after all.

The most important thing is that he also likes Yan Lu's personality.

Gongsun Linglong is the current hope of their famous family, so naturally they don't want Gongsun Linglong to be distracted by personal matters, and Yan Lu is obviously the kind of person who won't meddle in other people's business.

The two of them are really a good match.

"Prime Minister, the King of Qi has ordered someone to send us three hundred gold coins!" Soon, a waiter came with a tray in his hand and presented it to Gongsun Linglong's desk.

Gongsun Linglong understood what the King of Qi meant after a little thought.

In fact, she also understood what was going on in the court.

All we can say is that Bingzhou is a profiteer, and King Jian of Qi is no worse.

Bingzhou accepted 500,000 grains and fodder from the King of Qi, but King Jian of Qi took back even more from the court officials of Qi.

As for the cost of hiring the Bingzhou army, Gongsun Linglong had no doubt that King Jian of Qi would earn more as the middleman.

What does it have to do with her if she doesn't do these things? It is enough for Bingzhou to get what she wants. As for the rest, she has to give others some benefits.

At least King Jian of Qi could guarantee the long-term effectiveness of the hired army, but the royal family and nobles of Qi did not have the ability to make this promise.

"Pass the order down, no one will be seen!" Gongsun Linglong accepted the generous gift from King Jian of Qi, and naturally did what was needed.

"The State of Qi is really amazing!" The second elder of the famous family shook his head.

The country is about to perish, but the royal family and the public office are still enjoying their internal fighting.

"This is the State of Qi!" Gongsun Linglong said with a smile.

I'm afraid that in the eyes of the King of Qi and the Qi royal family, nothing is more important than killing the other side, so even in the face of the crisis of national destruction, they must kill the other side first!
