Chapter 180 Hua Xiaolan: "Brother is getting married?"; Marriage rumor spreads in Shaolin [Subscribe]

"She is the daughter of the commander-in-chief of the Royal Guards."

The father-in-law who sent the betrothal gift said.

"Commander-in-Chief Wang?"

There was a trace of confusion in the eyes of Lin's father, Lin's mother and others.

As for the General Wang that the eunuch mentioned, the family had never heard of him.

Lin Xuan didn't tell anyone about it either.

But it sounds like this is a high position.

When Captain Cao comes over later, I can ask him.

At this moment, Lin's mother couldn't help but mutter in her heart.

I was reluctant to matchmake for this guy before.

Unexpectedly, he fell in love with the daughter of the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards without saying a word, and even had to get the emperor to grant their marriage.

The Lin family’s ancestral tomb is really smoking again!

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Lin's father, the father-in-law asked:

"Master Lin, where do you think we should put this thing?"

Coming back to his senses, Father Lin remembered this and quickly turned to the housekeeper in front of him and said:

"Quick!"

"Butler Wu, quickly lead these brothers to put the betrothal gifts in the East Courtyard."

The butler responded and went to the guards and greeted them.

"Father-in-law, please come in!"

Immediately, Father Lin gestured to the eunuch to go into the hall and take a seat.

"Good work."

The father-in-law smiled and said.

This time, the emperor gave Marquis Xuanyong a lot of betrothal gifts, and it is estimated that the guards who followed him would not be able to unload them all in a short time.

You might as well take a rest in the Marquis' Mansion first.

……

This morning.

After Lin Xuan finished his breakfast, he took Commander Wang and Wang Mengdi, father and daughter, to the Marquis' Mansion.

No matter what, engagement is a big deal.

You have to inform your parents first.

On the way to Xuan Yonghou, Wang Daosen said to Lin Xuan:
"Lin Xuan, the emperor has sent the betrothal gift to the Marquis' Mansion yesterday."

"Brother Lin, you probably already know."

"This time the two families will have a meal together to finalize the details."

"My son-in-law understands."

Lin Xuan nodded.

After leaving the palace, Lin Xuan walked around the street for several times before he found his own Xuanyong Marquis Mansion.

Last time, not long after he was conferred the title of Marquis, he returned to Shaolin.

Afterwards, due to the wheel of time, he spent two months in the future world and never came back.

After he came back, he rushed to rescue Wang Mengdi before he even reached Xiawa Village, so in total, Lin Xuan hadn't been home for almost three months.

Fortunately, his spiritual power increased dramatically, and he could sense the breath of his family members, so he would not be unable to find his new home.

Otherwise, he would make a fool of himself in front of Commander Wang and his daughter.

……

But he said.

After the eunuch left last night, Lin's mother asked the servants to clean the mansion inside and out.

It was because Lin's father learned from the eunuch that Lin Xuan was currently in the palace.

In other words, Xuan'er can bring his future daughter-in-law home at any time.

So, when Lin Xuan came here this morning, he saw a brand new gate.

Before he reached home, several gatekeepers at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion had already seen Lin Xuan.

For this reason, he quickly told Lin's father, Lin's mother and others directly.

It was also said that the Marquis had brought a beautiful and gentle girl, and in front of him was a general wearing armor and looking mighty.

Hearing this, Lin's father and others understood why Xuan'er brought his father-in-law and his family here.

For this reason, the Lin family tidied up a little and went out to greet them with smiles on their faces.

"Dad, mother, the child is back."

When Lin Xuan and the other two arrived at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion.

Coincidentally, Lin's father, Lin's mother and other family members came out to greet them. Seeing his parents whom he hadn't seen for three months, Lin Xuan smiled and shouted.

Mother Lin looked at Lin Xuan lovingly and said:

"Xuan'er, I haven't seen you for a few months. You've lost weight, but you've grown taller and more handsome."

Father Lin corrected with a smile:
"You can't call her thin. She's clearly more lean than before."

"I forgot Xuan'er practices martial arts."

at the same time.

While Lin's father and mother were talking, they were also secretly looking at Wang Mengdi beside him.

In their eyes, Wang Mengdi is about the same age as their son.

He was not short, reaching Lin Xuan's nose.

She has a pretty face and a slender figure. Even without makeup, she still looks bright and charming, and has a touch of tenderness and thoughtfulness of the Jiangnan water town.

It seems that she does not have the pampered and domineering nature of a wealthy family.

Hearing this, Lin Xuan first did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Noticing that his parents were secretly glancing at Wang Mengdi, he simply walked over to Commander Wang and Wang Mengdi and said loudly to everyone:

"Dad, Mom, let me introduce you. This is General Wang Daosen, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards. Standing next to him is my fiancée, Wang Mengdi."

The voice just fell.

Wang Mengdi walked in front of Lin's father and mother, bowed and greeted them:
"Meng Di meets uncle, uncle, and all the uncles and aunts."

Saw this scene.

Lin's father, Lin's mother and others burst into laughter.

Mother Lin held Wang Mengdi's delicate hand and said with a smile:

"Miss Mengdi, you're welcome."

"We are all family members, so there is no need to be polite."

This room.

Father Lin looked at Wang Daosen, who was in a state of generalship, and felt a little nervous, but he still gritted his teeth and greeted him:
"Commander-in-Chief Wang, please come in."

Wang Daosen knew a little about Lin Xuan's parents.

I know that they are authentic farmers.

Seeing the latter's somewhat reserved look, Wang Daosen did not put on any airs of a general. He smiled heartily:
"What's the point of calling him Grand Commander? These two kids are going to get engaged soon, so we can call each other in-laws from now on."

"This……"

Father Lin was a little hesitant.

After his father-in-law left last night, he also inquired about the official position of the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards.

He is almost as good as the prefect of Kaifeng.

Father Lin couldn't let go of being on friendly terms with such a person.

I still feel pressure in my heart.

But looking at Wang Daosen's eager eyes, Father Lin nodded and said politely:
"Just follow my father-in-law's wishes."

Not long after.

Lin's mother then brought this group of people from her natal family to introduce them to Wang Mengdi.

In this regard, Wang Mengdi also treated them with great respect and spoke thoughtfully.

Lin Xuan's aunts praised him highly.

To be honest, Lin Xuan married a good wife.

Good luck in the future...

At noon.

Tang Fuyin came to the residence of Marquis Xuanyong with the imperial edict and read out the emperor Zhao Ning's intention to grant the marriage.

He said that he was summoned to the palace by His Majesty yesterday, and Emperor Zhao Ning told him about this matter, but Tang Fuyin was still quite surprised.

In his opinion, it was a bit too early for Lin Xuan to get married at such a young age.

If it was his own child Xiaolong, he would definitely disagree.

What's more, how can I have a family if my great cause is not accomplished?
However, when he learned that it was just an engagement, Tang Fuyin suddenly realized.

But then again, it was beyond Tang Fuyin's expectation that Lin Xuan agreed to this marriage.

Strictly speaking, Wang Mengdi is not worthy of Lin Xuan.

Although Lin Xuan was born in the Tian family, he was particularly outstanding in martial arts and was expected to reach the level of Shaolin's founder Bodhidharma.

Once his cultivation breaks through the Spirit Refining Realm, he will definitely become a pillar of the country and the stabilizer of the Song Dynasty!
Its status is so high that it is hard to imagine.

In addition, he is handsome and talented. If such a man really decides to marry, he would need at least a princess to be his match.

Even the princess is willing to marry him!
Although Commander Wang's daughter is talented, she is still somewhat unqualified.

But since Lin Xuan agreed, it means that he still has some feelings for Wang Mengdi.

……

This imperial edict.

When Tang Fuyin was reading the news, he also mentioned that Emperor Zhao Ning had asked the Ministry of Rites to pick an auspicious date for the two to get engaged. The date was the Yicho day of the Dingyou month.

In other words, September 18th.

Today is the seventh day of the first lunar month, and Lin Xuan and Wang Mengdi’s engagement party will be on the eleventh day.

After reading the imperial edict, Prefect Tang was forcibly kept by Wang Daosen to have lunch at the Lin family.

After lunch, Tang Fuyin said goodbye and returned to Kaifeng Prefecture.

……

Lin Xuan rarely returned to the Marquis' Mansion, so naturally he had to stay here for a few days.

As for Wang Mengdi, after having dinner with the Lin family, she returned to the palace with Wang Daosen.

Now, Meng Di has been rescued by Lin Xuan, and Wang Daosen’s leisurely days are almost over.

The emperor has issued an edict, announcing that he would be on duty in three days.

For the remaining three days, Wang Daosen decided to spend some time with Meng Di.

Just consider it as making up for the previous debt.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

On the fourth day, Wang Daosen began to be on duty in the palace.

After saying goodbye to his parents, Lin Xuan accompanied Wang Mengdi to Yangzhou.

It turned out that Wang Mengdi had told Lin Xuan before that she wanted to tell her mother about her engagement.

Lin Xuan had speculated about Wang Mengdi's biological mother from the beginning and suspected that she had passed away many years ago.

In the past few days, through contact with Wang Mengdi, Lin Xuan also knew the situation.

Wang Mengdi's biological mother died of illness when he was young and was buried in Yangzhou.

Since then, Commander Wang has never married another woman.

Even when he first brought his daughter to Kaifeng, Commander Wang's colleagues introduced many girls to him, but Commander Wang never agreed.

From this point of view, he is indeed infatuated.

Admirable.

Every year on the anniversary of Wang Mengdi’s mother’s death, Wang Daosen would take her to Yangzhou to pay tribute.

Unfortunately something unexpected happened this year and I was unable to go.

Now, Mengdi is engaged. When Wang Daosen learned of her idea, he certainly supported it.

After all, Wang Daosen would definitely feel at ease with Lin Xuan by his side.

……

When Lin Xuan and Wang Mengdi were riding horses to Yangzhou.

Shaolin Temple.

This day.

After finishing their martial arts training, Tang Xiaolong, Chen Xiaohu and Hua Xiaolan leaned on the long railing beside the temple to take a rest.

The three of them chatted casually:

"I haven't seen you for a while, brother. I don't know how you are doing."

"By the way, why did His Majesty let Senior Brother take charge of the Imperial Palace?"

"Could it be that the Black Fox King will attack the palace?"

"Impossible. The palace is filled with the aura of an emperor. The Black Fox King doesn't have the ability to assassinate the emperor."

"..."

at this time.

Chen Xiaohu had sharp eyes and seemed to have discovered something. He pointed at a guard dressed in Kaifeng Prefecture who had dismounted outside the mountain gate and said to Tang Xiaolong:

"Hey, Xiaolong, is that Captain Cao's subordinate?"

Tang Xiaolong looked in the direction of Chen Xiaohu's finger, and when he saw the man clearly, he said in surprise:
"It's Zhang Shun!"

"He is my father's man and is highly regarded by Captain Cao. Why did he come to Shaolin Temple?"

"Could something have happened in your house?"

Hua Xiaolan asked doubtfully.

"Let's go and have a look!"

Tang Xiaolong guessed that Zhang Shun came to Shaolin Temple most likely to find him.

To do this, I quickly ran down to the main hall.

A hundred breaths later, Tang Xiaolong and the other two came to Zhang Shun.

At this moment, he was talking to a novice monk.

There was also a letter in his hand.

After he finished speaking, Zhang Shun looked up and saw Tang Xiaolong. His expression brightened and he hurriedly greeted him:
"Son!"

"Brother Zhang, why did you come to Shaolin? Did something happen in the mansion?"

"Nothing happened in the mansion. The prefect sent me to Shaolin to deliver a letter to Abbot Sanzang." Zhang Shun said.

Tang Xiaolong frowned, somewhat puzzled:

"What letter did you write to the master for no reason?"

Zhang Shun spoke very naturally:

"We should invite Abbot Sanzang to the Marquis' Mansion for a feast."

Now, Tang Xiaolong and the others were even more confused:
"Dining table?"

"What's the banquet?"

"..."

Seeing the strange looks of the few people, Zhang Shun explained:

"Oh, young master, you may not know that your senior brother, Marquis Xuanyong, has recently become engaged to the beloved daughter of the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards!"

"This marriage was granted by His Majesty, and the imperial edict was sent to the Marquis's residence by the prefect."

The words fell.

Tang Xiaolong, Chen Xiaohu, and Hua Xiaolan all looked confused at the same time:
"what?!"

"Senior Brother is getting engaged, this is impossible, right?"

"Why is Senior Brother engaged? The other party is actually Commander Wang's daughter..."

"What on earth is going on? Didn't Captain Cao ask Senior Brother to leave so that he could stay in the palace? Why is he engaged again?"

Seeing his son's confused look, Zhang Shun said:
"A while ago, Commander Wang's daughter was captured from the palace by the Black Fox Gang. Your senior brother rescued her afterwards. I guess the two fell in love with each other, and that's why His Majesty granted them marriage."

"So that's it..."

After hearing this, Tang Xiaolong and the other two suddenly realized.

……

After a cup of tea.

In the abbot's courtyard.

After reading the letter in his hand, Abbot Sanzang was stunned for a long time.

Suddenly, he released his divine thoughts and spread the news to the Dharma Academy:

"Brother, come here."

Not long after.

He walked to the abbot's courtyard respectfully.

Abbot Wang Sanzang looked complicated. He said:

"Brother Sanzang, what is the matter that brought me here?"

Abbot Sanzang picked up the letter and said:

"This is a letter from Governor Tang. Please take a look, Brother."

"Prefect Tang?"

Gongjin was stunned for a moment, then took the letter and started reading.

Not long after, he looked up in astonishment:

"Lin Xuan is getting married?!"

"This kid is too impatient. The Black Fox King is still alive. If he gets caught up in the romantic relationship, it will be more trouble than it's worth."

Abbot Sanzang interrupted him and said:
"Brother, there's no need to be so excited. Just finish reading it first."

So Gongjin patiently read the letter from beginning to end.

"It's just an engagement. It seems that this boy still has some sense of propriety."

"But as the commander, we can't let our guard down. We have to teach this kid a lesson."

"No need to knock him. Zen Master Jueyuan said that Lin Xuan has a calm mind and great ambitions. I believe he can make his own decisions."

Hearing this, he nodded respectfully.

He knew very well Zen Master Jueyuan's admiration for Lin Xuan.

Gongjin thought for a moment and asked again:
"Will Junior Brother go to his engagement party?"

Abbot Sanzang said directly:
"Of course I want to go!"

"Why, you're not going?"

He smiled respectfully and said:

"How can I not go? I want to see what kind of talent the daughter of Commander Wang has that Lin Xuan could fall in love with her..."

……

　Let me talk about the plot. The marriage between Lin Xuan and Wang Mengdi will end in the next chapter, and a new plot will unfold.

　　Some readers are worried that Wang Mengdi does not live long enough because he has not practiced cultivation, but the anime "Chinese Kids" is more of a fairy tale type, and there will be plots later to solve this problem.

　　Tomorrow the author should resume updating 6,000 words a day, and then gradually try 7,000 or 8,000 words a day
