No one knows when it started, but the purpose of these swords and horses changed from praising the great achievements of the soldiers fighting on the battlefield to being an excellent place for national gossip.
The top topic of gossip today is that the old lady of the Yang family went to the Qin Mansion on behalf of King Wuling to propose marriage.
"A murderous marshal with a spoiled young lady, I don't know what Prince Wu Ling and the Qin family are thinking."
"That's right. Miss Qin San has been pampered since she was born. She is so delicate. Prince Wu Ling got angry and broke her little neck. Poor girl, I don't know how long she can live after she gets married."
Dugu Yu held the teacup for a long time without taking a sip, his brows furrowed tightly. Is he that scary? Has he ever crushed anyone to death? Nonsense!
"Hey, let me tell you something. This afternoon, when I was leaving Wangjiang Tower with a few friends after dinner, I saw Prince Wu Ling enter the private room next door. Inside..."
The speaker deliberately lowered his voice, but Dugu Yu knew just by looking at his mouth shape that he was talking about a girl in there!
Dugu Yu suddenly felt as if a needle was pricking his back.
He went to see Lin Xiafeng, was that such a shame? They were friends, weren't they? Why couldn't friends see each other?
The men gathered together, their faces filled with understanding. "I bet ten taels of silver that the woman is the most beautiful woman, Lin Xiafeng!"
"Hush, it's good enough for us brothers to know. You're still telling it out loud, aren't you afraid of death?"
"That is to say, even Prince Duan is one of her suitors. How can we talk about her? Let's talk about Miss Qin. She seems to never go out. Basically, no one has ever seen her!"
"Isn't that what real ladies from noble families do? Who would show off to others all day long?"
"That makes sense!"
Dugu Yu put down his teacup, thinking that he must be crazy to come and listen to these idle people gossiping about some little girls!
He left the silver and stood up to leave. As soon as he walked out of the door, a figure passed by him like the wind, followed closely by a large group of constables and the eldest brother of the Qin family, Qin Yuefeng!
Qin Yuefeng was overjoyed to see Dugu Yu. He pulled his arm and asked him to run with him. "Your Highness, come and help us! That man is a wanted flower thief by the imperial court. We have been chasing him for a long time!"
After saying that, he didn't forget to call out to the constables, "Hurry up and don't let him get away!"
Dugu Yu didn’t understand why he had to follow them. How come the Qin family was so good at finding others for help? They didn’t treat him as an outsider... an outsider?
His eldest brother-in-law, logically speaking, shouldn't be an outsider...
Dugu Yu felt that his mind was in a mess, so he shook off the mob and rushed forward alone to catch the flower thief.
A group of constables surrounded him and praised him highly. Qin Yuefeng punched him on the shoulder in gratitude.
Dugu Yu left with a dark face.
What a bunch of useless people, they can't even catch a flower thief and yet they still have the nerve to be happy. He was not so proud even when his Yanling Army destroyed a country!
Qin Yuefeng, "Thank you, Your Highness. I'll treat you to a drink some other day!"
…
Qin Qingyao has been worried since Old Lady Yang passed away. Why was she worried? Because Lin Xiafeng was mean because she had kept silent before. Dugu Yu sent the betrothal gift in the morning, and she came to tell Qin Qingyao in the afternoon.
The man who is betrothing you today loves me, and he is marrying you for me. You will be a widow if you marry him, so don’t be too happy too soon!
