Chapter 115 Are You Still Human?
The banquet for all officials was held in the front yard of the imperial villa, which was spacious and full of flowers.
However, what attracted Kan Chaoyan was not the scenery in the garden, but the young talents and ladies from various families. At a glance, he knew that the civil and military officials were looking for partners for their children.
[Wow, it’s a big blind date party. When Mr. Zhou called me here, he didn’t want to introduce his son to me, right? 】
Kan Chaoyan: "..."
He didn't feel like he wanted to introduce a partner to Mu Nanjin.
The right minister of the Ministry of Rites coughed lightly and said in a lowered voice: "I am the youngest daughter of the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard for my son."
[Huh, don’t just introduce your son to me. 】
The right minister of the Ministry of Rites asked Kan Chaoyan: "Master Kan, what do you think of the character of the daughter of the deputy commander of the imperial guard?"
Kan Chaoyan: "..."
He has never met the daughter of the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, so how can he know his daughter's character?
[The youngest daughter of the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard? 】
[The youngest daughter of the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard is a third-grade warrior. Although her temper is sometimes fierce, she is responsible and courageous in doing things, and she also protects her shortcomings. Generally, men with a temper will definitely not be able to stand her temper. The relationship between husband and wife will easily break up. Such a marriage He is not happy, but he is a good match for Mr. Zhou who is weak in temperament and good in character. 】
[Furthermore, Mrs. Zhou is an honest and gentle person. If she marries the daughter of the deputy commander of the imperial guard, she will be treated well. Her life will be more comfortable than at home, and it will be many times better than marrying another high-ranking family. 】
[In the future, the Zhou family will definitely not be able to count on the eldest son Zhou to prosper, but with a daughter-in-law who can support the family, the Zhou family will not be in decline for a while. When the eldest son Zhou has a child in the future, he will raise the child. Home might be better than it is now. 】
Kan Chaoyan raised his eyebrows: "I think the daughter of the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard is pretty good. Master Zhou must have good taste."
The right minister of the Ministry of Rites nodded: "I think so too."
He walked towards the deputy commander of the imperial guards, smiled and shouted: "Master Li."
The deputy commander of the imperial guards heard Mu Nanjin's words, and he also felt that his precious daughter would not be wronged unless she married Mr. Zhou's son.
He gave Lang, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, a big smile: "Master Zhou."
The two of them seemed to have met their in-laws, and their smiles were extremely amiable.
Kan Chaoyan's mouth twitched.
"Master Kan." The right minister came over with a smile on his face: "Come on, let's go have a drink."
Kan Chaoyan hurriedly said: "I have to be on duty tonight, so I can't drink."
"That's it." The right minister said with some regret, "I also want you to help my little daughter to see which young man is suitable for my little daughter."
Kan Chaoyan: "..."
Now that things have come to this, what else is there that I still don’t understand?
These officials just wanted to use him to question Mu Nanjin. Learn about the other person's character from her, and then combine them to see if they are suitable for their children.
Kan Chaoyan coughed lightly: "Which family's child does the right minister like?"
The right minister told him frankly: "The second son of the Minister of Industry."
[The second son of the Minister of Industry and Commerce is too dull. He listens to his elders no matter what. He never knows how to resist. When he is wronged, he only swallows it in his stomach. The wife of the Minister of Industry and Commerce is also a powerful character. He is particularly partial and only cares about the eldest son and the youngest son, but often ignores the second son. If the families are not separated, no matter which girl she marries, she will not have a good life. Unless General Pingnan's eldest daughter is willing to be their daughter-in-law, Mrs. Shang of the Ministry of Industry will only be left with nothing, haha. 】
When the officials heard that Mu Nanjin had heard about General Pingnan's eldest daughter, they couldn't help but look at each other.
"Who is General Pingnan's eldest daughter?"
"Never seen it."
"I haven't seen it either."
"Is she here?"
"I heard that General Pingnan's eldest daughter stayed at Anyang Pass and did not return to the capital."
General Pingnan heard everyone mention his daughter and quickly reduced his presence, but someone still noticed him.
He, a bachelor at the Hanlin Academy, asked: "General Pingnan, I remember that all the younger daughters of your family are married, but your eldest daughter hasn't said goodbye yet?"
General Pingnan paused slightly and replied implicitly: "My eldest daughter and I have been staying at the border all year round. We have never received strict education. It is a bit difficult to have a good marriage."
In fact, this is secondary. The main thing is that his daughter is burly, taller than any soldier, and her voice is so loud that it can pierce her eardrums. The other thing is that she is a fifth-level warrior, and she is fierce. Ordinary people dare not provoke her. .
The bachelor's degree student at Hanlin Academy nodded in understanding: "Dare I ask her age..."
"nineteen."
General Pingnan is also very worried about his eldest daughter's marriage.
After all, she was his biological daughter, so he really couldn't bear to marry at a low age, but it was difficult to find a well-matched person. Many people rejected the marriage on the spot after seeing his daughter's figure.
"Where is your daughter now? Is she in the Imperial Manor?"
"She was at home and did not come out with her."
General Pingnan also wanted to find a good marriage for his eldest daughter, so how dare he bring her to meet someone.
"oh."
At this time, the Minister of Industry came over and said, "General Pingnan, can we have a chat?"
General Pingnan looked surprised: "I have met the Minister of Industry."
The bachelor's degree student at Hanlin Academy realized his interest and left.
"There is no need to be so polite between us." Minister of the Ministry of Industry smiled and said: "I heard that your eldest daughter is not married yet. What do you think of my second son?"
Now General Pingnan is willing to marry off his daughter as long as the other party has a good family background.
"I am very satisfied with your son, but my daughter..."
The other party was the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he did not dare to lie. But before he finished speaking, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry quickly said: "As long as you agree, everything else doesn't matter."
He marries a wife for his son. The son he values will be able to get his wife in the future, and the rest does not matter, even if he is disabled.
General Pingnan still hesitated: "But..."
"No, no, just say whether you agree or not."
"Of course I agree." General Pingnan wished he could marry off his eldest daughter tomorrow.
The Minister of Industry and Industry smiled and said, "As long as you agree."
General Pingnan asked: "Do you want to ask your son's opinion?"
The Minister of the Ministry of Industry sighed and said: "You just heard what Mu Nanjin said. My second son has no opinion of his own. No matter what we say, he will agree. Even if I let him make his own decision, he still wants us to do it."
"Then do you want to ask your wife for her opinion?"
"unnecessary."
The minister of the Ministry of Industry knows his wife well. She doesn't care much about her second son. As long as her daughter-in-law's family background is not too bad, she will not object.
Just when the two of them settled down, Prime Minister Zuo approached Kan Chaoyan: "Master Kan, on behalf of my youngest son, I have chosen Miss Seven, the Minister of Punishment..."
Mu Nanjin was very puzzled.
[Comrade Lao Kan is not a matchmaker, so why do both of them come to ask for his opinion? 】
[Oh, I understand. The Jinyi guards are responsible for collecting intelligence from hundreds of officials. They also know the families of hundreds of officials very well. It is normal for officials to ask about the situation of other officials’ children. However, if they investigate the matter and the actual situation If it doesn’t match, it is very likely that the person will be matched with the wrong person. 】
The family members of the officials are also puzzled. Isn't tonight a party where officials from various families look at each other's children? Why are two of their heads running to find Kan Chaoyan, and there is also a long queue, which is comparable to meeting the emperor, everyone is respectful.
Due to the distance, the family members could not hear the conversations of the officials. They only knew that every official was happy after talking.
Mrs. Zuo Xiang and her young son waited and waited, and finally waited until Zuo Xiang came back from chatting with Kan Chaoyan.
She said angrily: "I asked you to look after a girl for my son. Why are you going to chat with your colleagues again?"
"You don't understand." Zuo Xiangzhen didn't know how to explain Mu Nanjin's situation.
"Then do you understand very well? If you understand very well, you should quickly choose a girl to be your son's wife."
Zuo Xiang smiled and said: "I have already chosen."
"Oh?" Mrs. Zuo Xiang raised her eyebrows: "Who is it?"
"The seventh daughter of the Minister of Justice." Zuo Xiang whispered to her, "This little girl is cheerful and generous, and has a delicate and clear heart. She will definitely get along well with you and your son."
Mrs. Zuo Xiang is originally a cheerful type, so naturally she likes cheerful and generous little girls: "Really? Do you understand everything clearly?"
Zuo Xiang stood up: "Don't you still believe in my husband's ability to do things?"
Mrs. Zuo Xiang knew that her husband was very safe in his affairs: "Then let's go see the Minister of the Ministry of Justice now. We don't know whether he agrees with this marriage, and we don't know whether his son likes the little girl. The little girl Will he like our son?"
"I'm very satisfied with the little girl anyway, it just depends on our son."
Prime Minister Zuo took his wife and son to find the Minister of Punishment.
The Minister of Punishment had just heard Mu Nanjin’s heartfelt words that his seventh daughter and Zuo Xiang’s youngest son were a match made in heaven, so when he saw Zuo Xiang coming with his wife and children, he immediately put up a big smile.
The left prime minister knew that the Minister of Punishment was also very satisfied with his son, and the smile on his lips became even bigger.
After the two families exchanged polite greetings, they secretly looked at their children, and saw the son of the left prime minister looking at the daughter of the Minister of Punishment with a silly smile on his face.
The daughter of the Minister of Punishment smiled generously back at the other party, feeling that the honest and honest young man in front of her was very cute.
The elders on both sides knew that the marriage was settled without saying anything.
The party didn't end until four o'clock in the morning. Some people left happily, while others had dark faces. When they saw Mu Nanjin, they snorted unhappily.
Mu Nanjin was foggy and sweaty.
[I've been eating all night and I didn't offend them. Why are they humming at me? 】
Kan Chaoyan: "..."
You have reduced other people's children to nothing, and it will be difficult for you to marry in the future. It is strange that others can be happy.
He coughed softly: "It's getting late, we will stay in the Imperial Mansion on duty tonight and will not go back."
[I have a game tomorrow and you actually want me to be on duty. Are you still a human being? 】
Kan Chaoyan's mouth twitched: "Are you tired? If you are, I will arrange a room for you to stay in."
Mu Nanjin replied without thinking: "Tired."
[Since I can lie down, why should I choose to stand. 】
Kan Chaoyan brought Mu Nanjin to the compound where the Queen Mother lived.
When the Queen Mother learned that Mu Nanjin was going to live in her courtyard, she welcomed her and arranged for her to live in the side hall next to hers.
Mu Nanjin couldn't sleep, not only because it was still early for her, but also because she was full.
She sat up and turned on the system: "I'm not in a good mood today. I want to find a funny movie to make myself happy."
Mu Nanjin chose a movie with a hilarious index of ten stars.
Oops, she couldn't help laughing just after reading the beginning.
However, she cultivated the path of ruthlessness, so she could not show any emotion on her face, she could only be happy in her heart.
[Haha, the protagonist is too unlucky, hahahaha——]
The queen mother next door opened her eyes and asked the palace maid guarding the bedside: "Why is Mu Baihu happy?"
The palace maid was a little confused: "I don't know if I want to return to the Queen Mother. Do you want me to go over and ask?"
"No."
The Queen Mother closed her eyes, and then heard Mu Nanjin laughing again.
【Ha ha ha ha--】
The more she thought about it, the more wrong she became. Mu Nanjin had a straight face all day long, so it was impossible for him to laugh heartily. Moreover, this was her dormitory, and although he always did some unexpected things, he would never break the rules.
The Queen Mother asked the palace maid: "Can you hear Mu Baihu laughing?"
The palace maid said: "As far as the Queen Mother is concerned, no."
Queen Mother: "..."
In other words, the laughter came from Mu Nanjin’s heart.
This voice was not only heard by the Queen Mother, but also by the patrol commanders.
At this time, they didn't know how to describe their feelings, and the emperor was even more indescribable.
He was having fun with his concubine when suddenly he heard loud laughter.
Then, his little dragon-man shriveled up
The emperor sat up gloomily.
The concubines didn't know how to comfort him: "The emperor must be tired."
"It's not that I'm tired."
It was not convenient for the emperor to tell her about Mu Nanjin, so he put on his inner clothes and opened the door to the palace and asked Commander Meng outside the door: "It's so late, why is Mu Nanjin still in the palace?"
Commander Meng was ashamed: "I don't even know what I said when I returned to the emperor."
The emperor returned to the house.
The concubine leaned on his back and called out softly: "Your Majesty..."
The emperor exhaled: "I am not in the mood tonight."
Mu Nanjin's laughter filled his ears. Not to mention that he was not in the mood, the charming atmosphere was completely gone.
The concubine saw that the emperor looked bad and did not dare to provoke him again.
The hilarious movie played for a full hour before it ended. Everyone finally no longer had to listen to her laughter. But Mu Nanjin felt that she had not had enough of it, so she looked for ancient martial arts movies and prepared to apply the handsome moves in them to the competition. go.
This martial arts film just tells the story of the royal guards.
[Escort me, protect me quickly. 】
Commander Meng's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly led his men to kick open the door of the emperor's palace.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?"
The concubine on the bed was frightened by them.
The emperor frowned tightly.
Meng Tong led them to the bed and looked around.
[Silly, the assassin is the concubine beside the emperor. 】
With a snap, everyone looked at the concubines, and the emperor quickly stood up and hid behind Commander Meng and the others.
The concubines were stared at with horror by them: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with your Majesty? Why are you staring at this concubine? Have you done anything wrong?"
