I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 107 I, Li Zheng, will pay back ten times the betrothal gift!

Li Zheng understands Qin Waner's character very well. She is the kind of woman who is gentle on the outside but very strong on the inside.

As a woman, she has a stubbornness that ordinary men don't have. Once she makes a choice, she will never regret it.

Just like she chose to give herself to Li Zheng.

It is precisely because of Wan'er's character that Li Zheng has 100% confidence in him.

Just thinking about it, at this moment.

The door to the Protector's Mansion opened.

A man who looked like a middle-aged butler came out. When he saw Li Zheng, he immediately greeted him with a smile:

"This must be my uncle from the Duke's mansion. By my command, if my uncle comes, he should be welcomed into the mansion immediately."

"That's right."

Li Zheng said calmly with his hands clasped in fists.

immediately.

"Zhao Ming, Wu Yuanlong."

"Send the betrothal gift to the mansion."

"I, Li Zheng, have come to get married. Although the emperor has given me the gift of marriage, I still need to marry according to etiquette."

Li Zheng said to the two commanders of the personal guards.

"Subordinates take orders."

Zhao Ming and Wu Yuanlong immediately took orders.

Three hundred personal guards took action immediately.

Before coming to the Duke Protector's Mansion, Li Zheng used Tang Dynasty silver notes to exchange for 10,000 taels of gold and 1 million Tongbao plants.

He also bought thousands of pieces of silk and satin as a betrothal gift.

At first, the Qin family bought out the friendship between Li Zheng and Qin Wan'er with a hundred taels of gold, a hundred thousand Tongbao, and a hundred pieces of silk.

And today, Li Zheng returned the favor tenfold.

Seeing this, Butler Liang of the Duke's Mansion wanted to say something, but finally kept his mouth shut.

"This is the betrothal gift list. Please keep it, butler."

Li Zheng took the red gift list from Lin Chong's hand and handed it to Butler Liang.

"Yes!"

Butler Liang solemnly took the gift list and said respectfully:
  "Please invite me into the house."

"Zhao Ming, Wu Yuanlong, follow me in."

"Take your personal guards outside."

Li Zheng said in a deep voice.

"Yes."

The three commanders replied in unison.

Among them, Zhao Ming and Wu Yuanlong were with Li Zheng, their hands resting on the swords at their waists, their expressions as cold as if they were on the battlefield.

As a subordinate of Li Zheng, he originally had no idea about the relationship between his general and the Qin family.

But as the incident in the court today unfolded, they in Chang'an soon learned the news.

this moment.

Only then did they understand why their general joined the army at the age of fifteen and fought so hard on the battlefield.

All this is because of the humiliation of the Qin family.

Therefore,
  The Lord humiliates his ministers to death.

This is the same for Li Zheng's closest subordinates. Naturally, they don't have a good look when they walk into the Qin family.

And in the drawing room of the Duke's Mansion.

Lord Protector Qin Jiansheng sat on the main seat, and in front of him stood his younger brother Qin Haisheng.

Both of them looked ugly.

"Now, you should be satisfied, right?"

"Now everyone in Chang'an City knows that my Qin family is a noble and wealthy family that bullies others. Everyone knows that I, Qin Jiansheng, and you, Qin Haisheng, are powerful and domineering people."

"Alas! My father's face has completely disgraced both our brothers."

Qin Jiansheng sat there, speaking with a sad face, and a hint of bitterness in his tone.

Since inheriting the title of Duke Protector from his father, Qin Jiansheng has only thought about not losing his prestige and not bringing shame to the Qin family because of himself. But now, Duke Protector's Palace is not only humiliated, but also notorious. It's so generous to make people laugh.

For the common people in the world, they are all weak when facing the rich and powerful.

Li Zheng's experience, being threatened and bullied by the rich family's children, just thinking about it is enough to make them feel the same.

Now the news is only spreading in Chang'an City. In the next few months, it will spread throughout the world like the wind.

"Brother, I know I was wrong." Qin Haisheng looked ashamed and lowered his head to admit his mistake.

"wrong?"

Qin Jiansheng looked at his younger brother and said, "What you were thinking was not wrong at all, but you didn't expect that Li Zheng would become famous, let alone that Li Zheng would reach the point where he is today, with his fame spreading all over the world."

Hear this.

Qin Haisheng was noncommittal, but obviously Qin Jiansheng was right.

"Now that things are like this, you are still thinking about luck instead of apologizing to Li Zheng in person. Didn't we make a mistake in the first place?"

"I feel ashamed now thinking about what you and I did in Changzhi County."

"Don't you feel any regret?"

Qin Jiansheng looked at his stubborn brother and spoke sincerely.

"Brother, I..."

"Stop talking. Now the deal is done. It's useless to say more."

"Let's still think about how to face Li Zheng in the future."

Qin Jiansheng sighed, saying more would be useless.

As he said, it is useless to say more.

And this time.

"Master, my uncle is here."

Butler Liang's shout brought Brother Qin Jiansheng back to his senses immediately.

Qin Haisheng subconsciously wanted to slip out of the back hall.

"Stop for me."

Qin Jiansheng glared at him and said coldly.

Due to his brother's face, Qin Haisheng could only stand there obediently.

For him, the moment he least wanted to face was finally coming.

The ants that he could easily trample on a year ago are now here with the emperor's decree of marriage.

Moreover, he actually holds the title of County Duke at such a young age.

If possible, he really didn't want to see Li Zheng, so he still looked up to him humbly.

The plot reversed so quickly that he couldn't accept it all at once.

After calling his younger brother Qin Haisheng to a stop, Qin Jiansheng strode out to greet him.

With Zhao Ming and Wu Yuanlong guarding him on the left and right, Li Zheng walked over slowly.

"Master, this is the betrothal gift from my uncle."

Butler Liang handed the gift list to Qin Jiansheng.

Qin Jiansheng took the gift list.

Open it up and take a look.

His expression changed slightly.

He didn't expect that Li Zheng would come up with such a generous betrothal gift.

"You have the emperor's blessing to marry you, so there is no need for such heavy ceremony."

Qin Jiansheng closed the gift list and said with a complicated expression.

This way of meeting and the reason for being in court today naturally made Qin Jiansheng feel a little knotty and very embarrassed.

"We, one is one, two is two."

"The emperor is the first to grant a marriage, but the betrothal gift must not be less."

"In the past, you and your brother used a hundred taels of gold and a hundred thousand tongbao to cut off the relationship between me and Wan'er. Today, I will repay you with ten times the betrothal gift!"

Li Zheng spoke slowly.

"I know that you have some resentment in your heart because of the stupid behavior of my brother and I."

"But today, in the court, in Chang'an City, and even in the world, our Qin family's reputation has been greatly damaged, and our Qin family has also paid the price."

Qin Jiansheng's tone was low, with a bit of bitterness.

Li Zheng glanced at Qin Jiansheng with a deeply regretful expression, and Qin Haisheng who was afraid to see anyone in the living room. The scene last year appeared in Li Zheng's mind.

But now the results are reversed.

In the past, the two of them were riding high on war horses, looking at Li Zheng like they were looking at ants.

But now, everything has changed.

They huddled at home and did not even dare to come out to see him.

This feeling made Li Zheng feel happy and relieved in his heart.
