Chapter 565: Robbery of Civilian Girls

Guo Jia laughed: "Yes, yes, Guo knew this was the case."

Zhen Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Fengxiao, for your understanding. Thank you very much. In this case, my sister-in-law cannot marry the Yuan family's son. Zhen is willing to donate tens of thousands of military rations to reward the imperial master." .”

Guo Jia's pupils shrank slightly, and he thought to himself: I had long heard that the Wuji Zhen family was a wealthy family, but I really didn't expect that the money would be worth ten thousand stones of military rations.

Ten thousand stones of military rations are enough to feed an army of 10,000 people for a month. The quantity is very large. Especially now that there have been wars for many years and the consumption of food and grass is huge, it is even more precious.

"Haha, since Magistrate Zhen is so sincere, it would be disrespectful for Guo to reject it." Guo Jia cupped his hands and said, "I will definitely report Magistrate Zhen's utter loyalty to the imperial court to the general."

"Thank you very much." Zhen Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

And Guo Jia said again: "By the way, what does Magistrate Zhen think of the general?"

"General?" Zhen Yu praised him profusely: "General, he started from a young age and became a force that swept the world. He supported the Han Dynasty, supported the emperor, and made great achievements all over the world. He is truly an immortal hero and a famous general of ZTE. !”

"Haha, the general is indeed an outstanding person. The only regret is that neither Princess Wannian nor Cai Wenji could give birth to a son or a daughter for the general." Guo Jia sighed.

"Haha, it's indeed a pity." Zhen Yu nodded, but didn't react yet.

Guo Jia gradually revealed his true intention: "Guo heard that Magistrate Zhen's sister is the symbol of a prosperous husband. She might be able to give birth to a son for the general and inherit his career. I don't know what Magistrate Zhen wants. How about it?"

"Ah? This, this, this" Zhen Yu stuttered again. He never expected that Guo Jia came to first dissuade his sister from marrying Yuan Xi, and then he wanted to dedicate his sister to Liu Ye. The co-author is coming Are you plotting against your sister?

Guo Jia took advantage of the victory and pursued him: "Yes, didn't Magistrate Zhen just praise the general as an unparalleled talent? Besides, the general is just a young man and is in his prime. This marriage is not an embarrassment to Magistrate Zhen, right?"

Although Zhen Yu is willing to cooperate on the surface, in fact he is just intimidated by the power of Liangzhou's army. Once Guo Jia withdraws, Zhen Yu is expected to change his banner immediately. But it would be different if there was a marriage. If Zhen Mi married Liu Ye, then the entire Zhen family would be tied to Liu Ye's chariot, and the Zhen family would have to do their best.

With the Zhen family as an example, all the aristocratic families in Hebei will naturally gradually fall in love with the situation.

Didn't Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu marry Guo Shengtong first before taking over Hebei?

"This person has to go home to discuss something with Jia Ci." Zhen Yu thought of a strategy to delay the attack.

"Haha, as the saying goes, an elder brother is like a father. Now that the late Cai Ling has died of illness, can't Magistrate Zhen still be the master of his sister? It's his parents' orders and the words of the matchmaker. Magistrate Zhen had better make a decision quickly!"

Guo Jia narrowed his eyes, looked at Zhen Yu sharply, and his tone was as cold as ice.

"Okay!" Zhen Yu said bravely: "Zhen agreed, but getting married is not a trivial matter. Hebei is currently in constant war, so please wait until the general has pacified Hebei before you get married."

"Okay, but we have to establish a written agreement first, how about that?" Guo Jia asked again.

"Okay" Zhen Yu nodded as if accepting his fate.

"Hahaha! In that case, congratulations to Magistrate Zhen. The general will definitely take him seriously in the future." Guo Jia smiled slightly. Then he calmly took out a piece of silk paper, wrote a letter of appointment on it, and handed it to Zhen Yu.

Zhen Yu held the brush and reluctantly signed his name.

"In that case, I'll take my leave, haha." Guo Jia smiled slightly, turned around and walked out of the threshold, while Ma Dai followed closely behind him, holding his head high and never leaving.

"Mr. Fengxiao, it seems that you didn't mention this to the general at the beginning?" Ma Dai took a few steps forward and asked Guo Jia.

Guo Jia smiled: "Zhonghua, you don't know that among the five daughters of the Zhen family, although the youngest daughter Zhen Mi is the youngest, her appearance is the most outstanding and radiant. Otherwise, why would Yuan Shao hire his son?" The general got a stunning beauty for no reason, and also got the support of the Zhen family and tens of thousands of stones of military rations, isn't that good?"

"Besides, the general has no heirs so far." Guo Jia solemnly said: "The general is the pillar of the imperial court. Naturally, our subordinates must give more thought to it. If we marry more wives and concubines, we will eventually have heirs."

Ma Dai nodded appreciatively: "Zhonghua admires Mr. Fengxiao's thoughtfulness."

"Haha, let's go. I'm not only going to pacify Wuji County, but also take down several surrounding counties."

"promise!"

Although the Liangzhou soldiers controlled all parts of Wuji County, they maintained strict military discipline and did not disturb the people. They only patrolled back and forth on the streets. The residents in the city huddled in their houses and did not dare to come out.

The door of a mansion belonging to a wealthy family was also closed, and no one dared to come out. Zhen Yu, accompanied by several attendants, came to the Zhumen with a sad face on the street.

"Call the door and say I'm back." Zhen Yu waved his hand.

An attendant stepped forward, stretched out his hand, knocked on the red door, and said loudly: "Open the door quickly, the eldest master is back!"

After a long time, the Zhumen were opened, and a head cautiously poked out from the two doors: "Young Master?"

Zhen Yu walked up impatiently: "It's me, let me in."

"Yes, yes, yes!" The servants in the mansion breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Zhen Yu. As if they had a backbone, they hurriedly opened the red door and invited Zhen Yu and the attendants behind him to enter.

Zhen Yu walked into Zhen's mansion and said to the servant beside him: "Zhen Cai, has the old lady eaten?"

Zhen Cai took a step forward, nodded and bowed: "Old Madam, you have had your meal, but your appetite is not very good today, so you only drank some soup."

Zhen Yu nodded: "I'm going to see the old lady, please step aside."

Zhen Cai and many attendants retreated after hearing this, while Zhen Yu walked towards Zhen's mother's room with a heavy heart.

"Mother, my child has come to say hello to mother." Zhen Yu lightly knocked on the door and window and said.

"Yu'er? What's wrong? Come in."

Zhen Yu opened the door and walked in. He saw a middle-aged woman lying half on the couch with a kind face. When she saw Zhen Yu, she sat up.

"What's wrong?" Mother Zhen said softly.

"Alas!" Zhen Yu sighed, and then he said everything in detail.

Zhen's mother frowned slightly: "So, Mi'er is going to marry that general? Alas, Mr. Yuan is young after all. Isn't this general over fifty?"

Zhen Yu laughed out loud, shook his head and said: "No, mother. The general is Liu Ye, he is only thirty years old this year."
