Chapter 346 Why Do You Regret Now?

"Some days that have significant impacts can be used as holidays!" Qu Fufeng kept counting the days that can be used as holidays.

"For example, the day you conquered the surrounding countries and unified the Central Plains can be designated as National Day to celebrate the unification of Great Xia and let the people remember your achievements. The five countries have been united into one, so we can have five days off! Another example is the day when the bomb was invented, the day when the steam carriage and steam ship were invented..."

"Stop, stop, stop. This is too much." Lu Yanshi interrupted him.

"Let's just set a National Day holiday first, give us five days off, and we can think of other things later."

"Okay, Your Majesty. I will obey you." Qu Fufeng knew that he could not get fat in one bite, so he decided to quit while he was ahead.

He is already very satisfied with having two days off a week and five days off for National Day.

"Can I take these three days off to spend time with Miss Rou?" He asked cautiously.

Lu Yanshi raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Three days?"

"Two days is fine!" Qu Fufeng quickly changed his words.

"It can't be any less. My parents are waiting to hold their grandson." He begged, squeezing out tears.

"Okay, okay, I will graciously allow Lady Rou to visit my brother today and stay at his house for two days." Lu Yanshi thought of Qu Fufeng's hard work during this period and still gave him a holiday.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is wise." Qu Fufeng thanked him happily.

He wanted to make good use of these two days and try to make Rouer pregnant as soon as possible so that he could take her out of the palace.

Qi Xingrou was also very happy to be able to spend two days with the person she loved.

The only one who was unhappy was Qi Xingchen.

What sin had he committed that he had to protect his cheating sister?

He is too difficult.

…

Meng Shanchuan also got a leave, and he couldn't wait to urge his mother to find a matchmaker to propose marriage.

Upon learning about Jin Yulu's life experience, Meng's father and mother immediately expressed their opposition.

"How can a merchant girl enter the Meng family? I don't agree."

"Yes, it's not a good match, and I don't agree with it."

"But she is the wine shop keeper appointed by the emperor and serves in the same court as me. How can it be inappropriate for me to marry her?" Meng Shanchuan retorted with his neck stiff.

"All her relatives have died. Her fate is probably extremely bad. She will definitely bring bad luck to her husband and children, and maybe even to her parents-in-law." Meng's mother was furious.

"If you insist on marrying her, I will have to die."

"Mom, how can you threaten me with death?" Meng Shanchuan collapsed.

I never expected that my parents would disagree.

After all, his parents had urged him to get married for so many years, and they said they would agree to marry anyone as long as he was willing.

Why do you regret it now?

Father Meng looked disappointed and said, "Your mother and that Miss Jin, who is more important? Can't you tell them apart?"

That night, Meng's mother became ill due to anger.

Meng Shanchuan was confused. He had promised Miss Jin that he would marry her, but what should he do now?

He drank heavily all night and didn't know how to make a decision.

On one hand, she is his biological mother, on the other hand, she is his sweetheart, and no one can hurt her.

Until dawn, he thought of Lu Qi and Qu Fufeng.

During this period of time, they were the ones who gave him advice.

As a foreigner, it was not convenient for him to enter the palace to ask for an audience with the second princess alone, so he should go to Lord Qu for advice.

So he hurriedly asked the coachman to harness the carriage and went to Qu's house to find Qu Fufeng.

Qu Fufeng went out early in the morning to go on a date, but unexpectedly ran into Meng Shanchuan who was drunk.

As soon as Meng Shanchuan saw him, his eyes turned red.

"Brother Qu, you have to help me."

Qu Fufeng was startled.

Why did this guy come to see him so early in the morning?

He hurriedly asked, "What's the matter? I can't help you with the matter of confiscation of property, beheading, bribery, prostitution and borrowing money."

"It's not about those things. It's that my parents don't agree with me marrying Miss Jin." Meng Shanchuan said what his parents said.

"Oh, it's just this matter. I thought it was very serious." Qu Fufeng waved his hand indifferently.

He was in a hurry to meet his sweetheart and had no time to analyze the situation with Meng Shanchuan as a close brother, so he immediately gave him an idea.

Meng Shanchuan hesitated after hearing this.

"Is that okay?"

"It's possible. As long as you are determined enough, I guarantee that your parents will be polite to Miss Jin in the future. I have something else to do, so I won't say more to you. Let's go." After saying this, Qu Fufeng pushed him out of the house.

This guy is so annoying. He delayed him from meeting his wife.

"Okay, let's do it this way." Meng Shanchuan thought about the idea given by Qu Fufeng.

I gritted my teeth and decided to do as he said.

He went home to wash up, and after getting sober, he took the medicine to his mother's bedside to take care of her.

Seeing her son being so filial, Mother Meng felt much better.

She tried to persuade her son.

"Chuan'er, with our family background, you can marry even a princess, why do you have to stay with a merchant girl?"

Meng Shanchuan shook his head, his face solemn: "Mom, this won't work."

"Why not?" Meng's mother was anxious.

"You led the army to conquer the southern border, and followed the emperor on a secret visit for so long, you don't know how popular you are now. Many people in the capital have asked me about your marriage. If we hadn't agreed at the beginning that you would marry someone you like, would I have waited until today to arrange a marriage for you?"

"Yes. Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. Your mother and I have been good enough to you to the extent that you have been able to wait until today." Father Meng at the side looked at his son disapprovingly.

When Meng Shanchuan heard this, he put the medicine bowl aside, knelt down, and kowtowed three times to the two men.

"You kid, get up quickly, what are you doing?" Meng's father and mother were shocked.

"Dad, Mom, I'm sorry. I have lied to you for so many years." Meng Shanchuan thought about the method taught by Qu Fufeng. Although he felt a little disgusted with himself, he still said it with gritted teeth.

"What did you lie to us about?" Meng's father and mother were so frightened that they even sat up straight on the hospital bed.

"My son has always been fond of homosexuality, so he has never thought of getting married and having children. I had no reaction when I saw a woman." Meng Shanchuan lowered his head, fearing that he would not be able to control his expression and his parents would notice something was wrong.

"What did you say???" Meng's mother, who was always dignified, suddenly screamed.

"So you are saying that I can never marry you, Princess." Meng Shanchuan shook his head and continued.

"Not only the princess, but all the noble ladies are not allowed to marry me. They don't want to be widows with me."

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it! You must have lied to me on purpose." Meng's mother cried out heartbreakingly.

"I chose to join the army because there are many good men in the army, and it can also prevent you from forcing me to date other girls." Meng Shanchuan spoke more and more fluently, and I almost believed it.

"But after so many years, if I don't marry and have children, I feel sorry for you two elders, and even more sorry for the ancestors of the Meng family. So this time I followed the emperor on a private visit, and I searched for a long time, and finally found a suitable wife candidate."

"Miss Jin is an orphan. She can only rely on me after marrying into the Meng family. Even if I am gay, she dare not announce it to the public."

No way.

Meng Shanchuan added silently in his heart after he finished speaking.

If he really is a homosexual and Miss Jin finds out, she will probably stab him with a dagger to teach him a lesson.

Meng's mother almost fainted.

Thinking of how Meng Shanchuan used to be so close to his colleagues, his eyes went dark.

Could it be that what this child said is true?

Father Meng was also shocked and began to wonder whether there were any admirers of his son among the military officers who were on good terms with him.

"Mom and Dad, Miss Jin is the best candidate I can find. If you don't want her, I can only find someone else. In short, we must not find a noble lady from the capital." Meng Shanchuan emphasized.

"I don't believe it. Hongxiu, you go and serve the young master now. I will let the young master take you in as his maid. When the lady comes home in the future, I will make you a concubine." Meng's mother angrily pointed her maid Hongxiu to Meng Shanchuan.

Hongxiu's pretty face turned red.

This is too sudden.

Although she already knew that she would be taken into the young master's room, it was impossible for her to take the initiative to undress and seduce the young master in broad daylight.

"If mother doesn't believe it, then let Hongxiu verify it. But do you want to see it with your own eyes?" Meng Shanchuan said expressionlessly.

"Asshole, what are you talking about?" Father Meng shouted.

"Then do you want to go to the door of my room and listen?" Meng Shanchuan asked again.

Mother Meng was furious and anxious. She stared at Hongxiu and said angrily, "No need. Hongxiu, just tell us the truth later. If you dare to lie, I will sell your whole family."

"I obey your command." Hongxiu responded quickly, and followed Meng Shanchuan back to his room with a red face.

"Take it off, I'll watch you." Meng Shanchuan stared at Hongxiu expressionlessly.

Hongxiu was still a virgin, so she had never done anything seductive. Her face turned red and she took off all her clothes.

Meng Shanchuan raised his hand to cover his nose and looked at her with disgust.

Hongxiu's originally red face suddenly turned pale.

The young master actually dislikes her so much.

Her eyes were instantly filled with tears. Thinking of her lady's instructions, she walked towards Meng Shanchuan step by step.

"Master, let me serve you." She spoke with sobs.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she got close to Meng Shanchuan, Meng Shanchuan vomited all over her.

A mixture of green, white, and yellow with a foul smell fell on her body.

Hongxiu's mind buzzed and went blank.

Is she such a malicious person?

As soon as he got close to the young master, he vomited.

She couldn't seduce any longer, so she put on her clothes, opened the door and ran out.

Meng Shanchuan also felt that what he had just done was a bit disgusting, so he asked someone for clean water to rinse his mouth and changed into clean clothes.

Fortunately, Qu Fufeng reminded him to prepare things in advance and hide them in his sleeves.

Just when Hongxiu approached, he sniffed the thing in advance, and a foul smell came up, and he vomited out all the wine he drank last night.

Now my mother should believe that he really doesn't like women.

When this matter reached the ears of Meng's father and mother, even though they did not want to believe it, there was nothing they could do.

My son really hates women. He hates them so much that he will vomit if a naked woman gets close to him. What should I do now?

After discussing for a night, Meng's father and mother felt that continuing the family line was a very important matter. After much deliberation, it seemed that Jin Yulu, who had no roots to rely on, was the best candidate.

Moreover, Jin Yulu was not from the capital and was an orphan. Her family background was lower than theirs and she was easy to control. They would not dare to expose their son's secret in the future.

Thinking of this, Meng's father and mother hurriedly prepared the betrothal gifts, found a matchmaker and went to the Jin family to propose marriage.

Meng Shanchuan didn't expect Qu Fufeng's method to be so effective, and he happily went to thank him.

Qu Fufeng and Qi Xingrou had spent two days together and had a very relaxing time. He now looked very satisfied and his attitude towards Meng Shanchuan was much better than last time.

"Brother Meng, there is no need to thank me so much. I also learned this from a great writer." Qu Fufeng smiled slightly and quoted a very famous sentence from Mr. Lu Xun's work.

Just a few words were changed slightly.

"The Daxia people are always willing to compromise. For example, if you say that the room is too dark and you need to open a window, they will definitely not allow it. But if you advocate removing the roof, they will compromise and be willing to open the window."

After hearing this, Meng Shanchuan pondered it carefully for a while, then slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "This is a wonderful statement."

He wanted to marry Miss Jin, but her parents didn't agree.

But he said that he liked men and felt disgusted when he touched women. As a compromise, his parents agreed to let him marry Miss Jin.

What this great writer said is absolutely right.

"I wonder where this great writer is. Can you recommend him to me?"

Meng Shanchuan looked at Qu Fufeng sincerely.

Qu Fufeng chuckled and said, if he wanted to meet Lu Xun, he would have to be reincarnated thousands of years later.

Oh, maybe it’s a parallel world, and reincarnation is useless.

He could only smile and say, "This literary giant has passed away. I'm afraid you don't know him."

"Brother Naqu, do you have any of his masterpieces? I would like to read a few. This gentleman is truly wise." Meng Shanchuan said with respect.

Qu Fufeng shook his head. He could only remember a few classic quotes, so he couldn't pretend to be Mr. Lu Xun and write a book.

So he could only lie again: "I also saw it by chance from someone else. I don't have his masterpiece in my collection."

Meng Shanchuan was a little disappointed when he heard this. It was rare for a military general like him to want to study, but in the end he couldn't.

"No problem. Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. This gentleman has already given me a lot of inspiration. I wonder if you can tell me his name? If I see his masterpieces in the future, I can also collect them and study them carefully."

This time Qu Fufeng did not hide anything, he mentioned Brother Xun's name and representative works.

"This literary giant was originally named Zhou Zhangshou, later changed his name to Zhou Shuren, with the pen name Yushan, and later changed it to Yucai. His common pen name is Lu Xun. His representative works include "Diary of a Madman", "The Scream", "Wandering", etc."

Meng Shanchuan nodded solemnly: "Brother Qu, don't worry. If I come across his masterpiece, I will definitely keep it well."

After promoting his favorite author, Qu Fufeng was very satisfied.

But Qu Fufeng never expected that this wave of publicity would backfire on him.

After a while, his grandfather Qu Hongde came to him.

"Fufeng, tell me who Zhou Shuren is. I have searched all the books in my house, asked the emperor for the key to the Qilin Pavilion, and searched the royal collection, but I couldn't find any books by him. Where did you see his book?"
