Chapter 491: Engagement Troubles
Daojun's sister was getting married when she reached the marriageable age, causing a huge uproar in an instant.
The world's major aristocratic families were turbulent, and countless people rushed to Qinghe County.
Who is Zhu Dan?
Zhu Liming's sister, the apple of Zhu Liming's eye, the little princess of Qinghe County who is more noble than a princess, if she can marry Zhu Dan back home, the family will be honored and the lintel will be honored in just a blink of an eye.

Webster held the secret report in his hand and quickly came to Yang Zhao's study:
"Your Highness, it's a big deal! There is a new report from Qinghe County. Zhu Mingxiao wants to marry Zhu Dan and choose a hero from all over the world to match him."
When Yang Zhao heard this, he looked at the letter in his hand, and there was a hint of thought in his eyes: "Zhu Dan wants to find a husband? Fortunately, the lonely king already has a princess, otherwise I am afraid that the lonely king will also be moved by her."
"Your Highness is not ashamed. At your age, you can be Zhu Dan's father. You have a close relationship with Zhu Liming, so you have the nerve to attack Zhu Dan." Webster sneered:
"I have several outstanding nephews in my family. In terms of character, talent, and appearance, they are not inferior to others. How about your highness writing a letter to recommend them?" Wei Shi looked at Yang Zhao.
Yang Zhao was stunned, and then said: "You are so ambitious."
"It is also a good thing for you that the Wei family has climbed up to Qinghe County. I heard that the King of Yue and others have gone to hell personally regardless of their face, and have written to His Majesty to ask for the daughter of the Zhu family." Wei looked at Yang Zhao: "If you call me
Yang Tong, Yang Liang and others take the daughter of the Zhu family, and then His Highness will be in trouble. No matter how good your relationship with Zhu Liming is, it can't compare to Zhu Liming's sister."
Yang Zhao was silent for a while and then asked: "How old is Yang Tong this year?"
"Eighteen." Weishi said: "It's just that the mansion has already raised countless wives and concubines. He is a romantic seed. I'm afraid he won't be able to win the eyes of anyone in Qinghe County."
Yang Zhao picked up the pen and paper: "You still need to introduce two younger generations who are both good in character and academics. Otherwise, if you mess with Zhu Dan in the future, you will bring disaster to the Wei family."
Webster nodded with a smile: "Zhu Liming is so arrogant, maybe he doesn't like us. I'm just joining in the fun. It's great if I can be chosen. It doesn't matter if I can't. But your brothers can't.
Don’t guard against it.”
"I know." Yang Zhao lowered his head and started writing the book.

In Zhai Rang's backyard
There was a sound of hurried footsteps, but I saw a man with light and strong steps walking up and down to the backyard: "Cousin, something big happened."
Zhai Rang was not in the yard, but went to win over his soldiers, hoping to reunite people's hearts. Dugu Mingyue sat alone in the backyard to comfort the children.
Hearing the voice, he raised his head suddenly: "Third brother, why are you here?"
The visitor didn't say much, he just handed over the letter in his hand.
Dugu Yue took the letter, looked at it in her hand, and took a deep breath: "But is it true?"
"You can't lie! This matter was spread by Li Wan himself, and all the ladies in Qinghe County heard it with their own eyes and ears." The man whispered.
Dugu Yue suddenly couldn't sit still, stood up and walked back and forth in the yard, looking at the letter and newspaper in her hand, her face uncertain.
Ever since she learned about the relationship between Zhai Rang and Zhu Liming, she had already made a plan and regarded Zhu Dan as her own.
When Zhu Dan reached the age of marriage, he asked Zhai Rang to preside over the marriage and pushed his younger brother out to marry Zhu Dan.
Since ancient times, her parents had ordered matchmakers, and she thought that as long as Zhai Rang came forward, everything would be a matter of course, but who knew that Zhu Liming had already started arranging for Zhu Dan's marriage early.
"What should we do? What should we do?" Dugu Yue walked back and forth in the yard. Zhu Liming's movements completely disrupted her plan.
"We still need to ask the eldest master to come forward in this matter." Dugu Yue took a deep breath: "My parents ordered the matchmaker, as long as the eldest master opens his mouth, the matter will be settled."
"Where is Dugu Ding?" Dugu Yue looked at the young man.
"Waiting at the foot of the mountain."
"Tell him to come up the mountain." Dugu Yue said.
After hearing the words, the young man turned and left, leaving Dugu Yue clutching the letter in her hand with a solemn look in her eyes.
After a long time, he took a deep breath and said, "Please come over, sir, and tell me that I have something urgent."
Not long after
Dugu Ding and the young man went up the mountain and quickly came to Dugu Yue. He quickly bowed respectfully: "I've seen you, eldest sister."
Dugu Ding is eighteen years old this year. He is dressed in a black robe with a long sword across his waist. He looks handsome and full of heroic spirit. His whole body exudes nobility. He is a truly noble man.
"Are you here?" Dugu Yue looked at her own brother, and she felt satisfied. He was more than enough to match the Zhu Dan.
It stands to reason that Dugu Ding has already reached the age of marriage, and ordinary rich and powerful children would have a lot of children at his age. But Duguyue forced Dugu Ding to delay for several years in order to wait for Zhu Dan to grow up.
"Sister, Qinghe County actually wants to openly select young talents. This is different from what you said at the beginning." Dugu Ding complained.
"Zhu Liming is so imaginative in what he does, who could have predicted it?" Dugu Yue said angrily, "Sit down first and look at my eyes later."
The two siblings said a few more words. At this time, there were footsteps outside the door, and Zhai Rang was seen walking from the door.
"Mingyue, you called me back in such a hurry, but what's the matter?" Zhai Rang walked from the door with a gloomy face, his eyes were full of depression, and it was obvious that he was not in a good mood.
"Master, something big has happened." Dugu Yue hurriedly stepped forward and sat Zhai Rang down.
"Isn't this third brother? Why are you here?" Zhai Rang didn't ask what was going on. No matter how big the matter was, what could be bigger than him trying to destroy Wagang Mountain?
In fact, he was also angry in his heart. The Dugu family had promised him that they would take good care of Wagang Mountain. How could he hand over the power to Dugu Yue?
However, Zhai Rang really loved Dugu Yue, and he felt that he was not worthy of the apple of the Dugu family's eyes. The other party was from a big family and had noble blood, but he was just a mud-legged person with a huge difference in status.
In addition, Dugu Yue gave birth to a son and a daughter for him. He fell in love with this woman. Otherwise, how could he allow the Dugu family to interfere in the affairs of Wagang Mountain like this?
"I've met my brother-in-law." Dugu Ding quickly stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Sit down. We don't want to do that. We are all a family, so there is no need to be polite." Zhai Rang looked at Dugu Ding, who was polite and good-looking, and admired him very much.
"Third brother is here. I'll leave the reception to you. Don't neglect third brother and let people say I don't know the rules." Zhai Rang warned Dugu Yue again.
Dugu Yue took Dugu Ding and sat down, then looked at Zhai Rang: "Husband, something big happened in Qinghe County."
"With Zhu Mingxiao in Qinghe County, what big things can happen?" Zhai Rang disagreed.
Dugu Yue hurriedly handed over the letter in her hand. Zhai Rang opened the letter doubtfully, and then his expression suddenly changed: "Huh? Looking for a bride?"
"Nonsense!" Zhai Rang scolded, with a trace of anger rising in his eyes. His daughter was already looking for a husband, but he, the father-in-law, didn't even hear the news at all.
Thinking of Zhu Limingxiao's previous attitude, Zhai Rang couldn't help but cursed: "These two little beasts, do they still have me in their eyes?"
He was a little bit angry after being exposed. He originally thought that he was the son of destiny, and he often regarded himself as the son of destiny, and he believed in it, but who knew that it turned out to be a joke.
After I finished cursing, I felt helpless again, and I stared at the letter in a daze.
"Lang Jun, what do you think of my brother?" Dugu Yue woke up Zhai Rang from deep thought.
"What?" Zhai Rang was in a daze and did not hear Dugu Yue's words clearly.
"My brother is young and talented, and he is the right age for Zhu Dan. Do you think my brother may be worthy of Zhu Dan?" Dugu Yue said with a smile.
"What the hell?" Zhai Rang was furious when he heard this, and looked at Dugu Ding with his eyes: "I regard you as my brother, but you actually want to be my son-in-law?"
"Isn't this a seniority difference? How can this be done?" Zhai Rang couldn't help but asked.
"So what?" Dugu Yue said: "Why make such a fuss? Let's discuss our own affairs. You see, my third brother, a famous talent in the capital, might be worthy of Zhu Dan?"
Zhai Rang was speechless after hearing the words, and looked at Dugu Ding with his eyes, only to see that Dugu Ding was at a loss what to do.
"The third brother has grown up under my eyes since he was a child. He knows the basics. Why don't we get closer? It's better than those men who don't know the basics." Duguyue said.
"I'm quite optimistic about the third brother, but...it's not like you don't know Liming's temperament. He can't listen to what I say now." Zhai Rang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "As an old man, I can just listen to his orders."
"Since ancient times, parents have ordered matchmakers. Zhu Liming and Zhu Dan are both your daughters. As long as you speak, the matter will be settled." Dugu Yue pulled Zhai Rang's robe coquettishly.
"Of course I'm happy to get closer, but aren't you afraid of angering Mingxiao and turning his anger on you? Look at what he has done along the way. Does he care about worldly etiquette? Can the rules of this world restrain him? I'll give it to him.
The marriage letter you wrote is just a piece of waste paper." Zhai Rang had a clear understanding of his own position.
The character of my boy can be seen from the last time I asked him to clear the Wagang. He is definitely not something I can instigate.
The vision of father and son is no longer on the same level.
"I owe so much to his brothers and sisters in my life..." Zhai Rang wanted to refuse.
"What are you talking about!" Dugu Yue interrupted Zhai Rang: "My third brother is a young talent, and it's not like he pushed Zhu Dan into the fire pit. This is the beauty of our adults. My third brother knows the basics and is better than any other family in the world.
He is a man of great talent, including princes and grandsons."
"Just write a document. If it works, that's it. If it doesn't work, I can only regret that the two of them are not destined to be enemies. They can still be friends." Dugu Yue looked at Zhai Rang: "My third brother
A good match indeed.”
