Chapter 431: Soochow Minister

Sun Ren looked hesitant, frowning and said: "This way, isn't this bad?"

Zhuge Ruoxue was surprised, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with this plan?"

Sun Ren blushed, he stubbornly said: "I always feel something is wrong!" With a heart move, he hurriedly said: "You think, dad has already announced the matter at the competition meeting. If you suddenly turn back, wouldn't it be a disaster? People laugh! This is detrimental to Daddy's reputation. Regardless of whether Daddy is willing or not, I don't want to do anything that hurts Daddy's reputation!"

Zhuge Ruoxue said in an unpleasant manner: "How could it harm the prestige of King Wu? You only need to say that Sister Shangxiang resolutely refuses to marry, and King Wu has no choice but to accept that Donglang as his son! In this way, others will not criticize it. King Wu, on the contrary, would still admire Donglang! You know that the son-in-law is better than the son-in-law! I think the second sister is a very good plan, and sister Shangxiang does not have to hesitate!

Sun Ren frowned and shook his head: "I just feel wrong anyway!"

Zhuge Ruoxue said anxiously: "If you hesitate any more, you really want to marry that Dongyi barbarian! Then it will be too late to regret it!"

Sun Ren blushed and said, "Anyway, there is still so much time, so I will always think of a good way!"

Zhuge Ruoxue was anxious for Sun Ren, "But..." Zhuge Mengxue stopped her and said: "This matter is after all sister Shangxiang's personal affair. Let her think about it!" Zhuge Ruoxue felt that her sister. It makes sense, so I won't say anything anymore.

Sun Ren didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, and hurriedly said, "Ruoxue, I heard that a lot of wild deer appeared in the forest outside the city recently. Why don't we go hunting outside the city tomorrow morning! We haven't hunted for a long time!"

When Zhuge Ruoxue saw that Sun Ren kept on her own, she wanted to refuse her invitation, but she couldn't bear it when she said what she said. She said with an anger, "Huh! I'm so anxious to die for you, but you still have it." I am in the mood to go hunting outside the city!" Sun Ren hugged Zhuge Ruoxue’s arm and smiled: "Sister Ruoxue, don’t be angry! My business will be resolved! Let’s not think about the troubles, and accompany you tomorrow. May I go hunting?" Zhuge Ruoxue nodded involuntarily, and Sun Ren laughed happily. Zhuge Ruoxue said with no anger: "I'm really mad at you!"

At dinner, the two sisters Zhuge and Sun Ren dine in the embroidered building, and the maids outside the embroidered building heard cheerful whispers from the embroidered building from time to time.

After dinner, Sun Ren stayed for a long time before leaving reluctantly.

The two sisters Zhuge sent away Sun Ren and returned to the Xiulou.

Zhuge Ruoxue couldn't help being annoyed and said, "Sister Shangxiang is also true! She is still in the mood to go hunting!"

Zhuge Mengxue smiled and said: "Why is she not in the mood? I think she is in a good mood!"

Zhuge Ruoxue said in astonishment: "I'm about to marry someone I don't like, how can I feel good?"

Zhuge Mengxue smiled slightly, glanced at Zhuge Ruoxue, and asked, "Do you think Sister Shangxiang really doesn't like that person?"

Zhuge Ruoxue was taken aback, and immediately understood what the second sister meant, and said incredibly, "Does Sister Shangxiang actually like that person? How is this possible? If she likes it, why is she so resentful about this marriage?"

Zhuge Mengxue thought: "Her resentment is not what you think! I think Sister Shangxiang is just a little unconvinced!" She smiled, "Sister Shangxiang, although she is a daughter, her personality is very similar to yours. Similar, just like a man, eager to compete!..." Zhuge Ruoxue was not convinced, and cried, "Who looks like a man!"

Zhuge Mengxue smiled and continued: "Sister Shang Xiang has always been fighting against men but has never lost, let alone suffered a loss. This time, she suffered a lot from the hands of Dong Lang. Her temper will naturally be dissatisfied in her heart! Now she is just making her temper!" Zhuge Ruoxue only felt incredulous, "But..." Zhuge Mengxue said in an angry manner: "Okay, you don't want it. Worried for the ancients! If Sister Shangxiang really doesn’t want to marry that person, she will naturally come to us, and it won’t be too late to help her out at that time! You should know better than me, Sister Shangxiang is definitely not. The kind of person who is willing to be at the mercy of fate!" Zhuge Ruoxue felt that the second sister made a lot of sense, and she couldn't help nodding.

Early the next morning, Chen Lang came to Yingmao in the Great Hall of the Wu Wangfu with a strange mood. At the same time, there were more than a dozen talents in addition to the senior civil and military officials of Soochow in Jiangxia and the talents selected at this civil and military conference. . However, Chen Lang only recognized the one named Xu Sheng. At this time, King Wu hadn't arrived yet, and everyone gathered in groups to chat.

Xu Sheng walked to Chen Lang, clasped his fist and said: "General Donglang!" Chen Lang replied: "General Xu Sheng!" Xu Sheng has been appointed as General Yamen, and his official position is higher than that of Chen Lang's infantry captain. It's lower, but it's also among the generals.

Xu Sheng said with admiration: "The general is very impressed by his martial arts order! I have never encountered an opponent since I learned it, but I am convinced that I lost to the general yesterday!" Chen Lang laughed and said, "The general has won the prize! Victory is just a fluke!"

Xu Sheng said displeasedly: "Why the general speaks falsely! Is it because I am afraid of embarrassment on my face? But this general makes me even more embarrassed!"

Chen Lang smiled and said: "It's not all false statements. Yesterday's victory was indeed a fluke! The general's martial arts is superb, I admire it very much!"

Xu Sheng said earnestly: "The general does not have to be too modest! I can feel that the general hasn't come up with real skills at all!" Chen Lang smiled, and did not deny it.

The two chatted for a few more words, and then Chen Lang asked, "I wonder if the general knows Lord Zhugejin?" Xu Sheng immediately pointed to the extraordinary official who was talking to several civil servants in the distance and said, "That's it. It's Master Zhuge Jin." Chen Lang immediately looked at the man, and couldn't help but get excited. The reason why Chen Lang didn't leave as soon as possible and came to participate in the morning meeting of Lao Shizi was because he wanted to take this opportunity to meet Zhuge Jin. After all, Chen Lang has not given up his plan to solicit Zhuge Liang!

Since Chen Lang had discovered Zhuge Jin, he wanted to go over and say hello to him immediately. However, at this moment, a servant came out from the side door and sang loudly: "The meeting begins!"

Everyone immediately stopped chatting, and walked to their place and stood up. Seeing this, Chen Lang had to temporarily give up his plan to talk to Zhuge Jin and walked to the back of the rank of military commanders and stood there. The scene has quieted down, and the casual atmosphere just now has disappeared, replaced by a solemn solemnity. Chen Lang suddenly discovered that there was one thing that Sun Jian was much better than himself, and that was this ostentation. Chen Lang's discussions have always been casual, and there are no rules. Compared with the scene here, Chen Lang can't help but feel ashamed!

After a while, the figure shook at the side door, and several people walked in. The man in front of him was dressed in a black royal robe, with a dragon and a tiger's step, with extraordinary aura. It was King Wu Sun Jian, followed by four servants walking forward.

Sun Jian walked to the upper throne to do a good job. The servant who came in earlier said loudly: "See you by the ministers!"

The crowd worshiped together: "Well, see King Wu, King Wu is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!!" Chen Lang followed the others and worshiped.

Sun Jian laughed loudly, and said loudly: "Everyone is forever!" Everyone thanked them and straightened up. A set of red tape is almost the same as court etiquette.

Sun Jian said with a smile on his face: "The cultural relics conference ended successfully, and many talents were selected. I am so happy for the widows!"

Zhuge Jin hurriedly said: "Wu Wang has the fate of heaven, and naturally the world's talents gather!"

Sun Jian laughed. Immediately he raised his voice: "All the civil and military talents come out, so that I, Minister Jiangdong, the civil and military ministers may know you!"

More than two dozen people immediately walked out of the queue and gathered in the middle of the hall. Chen Lang was a little depressed, feeling like a monkey being played around!

Sun Jian smiled and said to everyone: "You are new to the city, it is inevitable that you are unfamiliar, so let's first introduce you to my minister of civil and military affairs in Jiangdong!" Then he pointed to Zhou Yu standing on the right side and said: "This is the legendary Zhou. Lang! The governor of Jiangdong and the great military division is the mainstay of my Jiangdong!" Everyone prayed to Zhou Yu: "I have seen the governor of Jiangdong!" Zhou Yu smiled and nodded.

Sun Jian then pointed to Sun Ce, who was standing at the top left, and said, "This is my son, Sun Ce, who is also known as the little overlord of Jiangdong, and he is also the Huwei general of my Jiangdong!"

Everyone immediately bowed: "I have seen Grand Prince!" Sun Ce laughed and said boldly: "Since you have come to vote for me in Soochow, you are connected to me and love brothers! Soochow will be supported by all of you in the future!"

Everyone couldn't help but get excited, and couldn't help but want to go through fire and water for Soochow.

Chen Lang couldn't help but secretly said in his heart: Sun Ce is so arrogant, he is much stronger than Sun Jian! If Soochow is led by him, it would be much harder to defeat Soochow than it is now!

Sun Jian introduced Zhang Zhao to the ministers of civil and military affairs. Immediately, Sun Jian introduced the civil and military talents to the important officials of the Eastern Wu civil and military officials. Both the old and the new can be regarded as knowing each other.

All the civil and military talents returned to the queue. Sun Jian said to Zhou Yu: "Gong Jin, announce my order!"

Zhou Yu clasped his fists and promised, then walked out of the queue and said to everyone: "Wu Wangjun, the infantry captain Donglang listen to the order!"

Chen Lang had no choice but to clasp his fists and said: "The end is here!" Zhou Yu said: "Infantry captain Donglang, dispatched to General Huwei, after the meeting, you can report to General Huwei and wait for orders!" Chen Lang promised. With a sound, he immediately returned to his position. Zhou Yu then issued orders to Xu Sheng and other talents in civil and military affairs, all of which were assigned to various departments or military camps. From the beginning to the end, Zhou Yu didn't read any memos or anything, and ordered the series to be spoken smoothly, as if everything was in his mind, which was impressive.
