Chapter 1842 Xiao Meiniang
Chapter 1840: Xiao Meiniang
After the news of Qin Hao''s promise to the marriage was returned, the Zhen family cheered and the Xiao family beat the drums and drums.
It is different from the Zhen family, which was born in a businessman. The Xiao family is a real prominent family in Hebei, but it is precisely because of the family and the business that they are targeted by Chen Youliang.
The Xiao family naturally did not want to surrender to Chen Youliang, but Chen Youliang, who was surrendered by the Yellow Turban Army, would not reason with the aristocratic family at all. If he did not surrender, he would have to be exterminated.
In desperation, Xiao Yan could only take the Xiao family to endure humiliation and follow the thief, and when Yuan Shao''s army arrived, he gave him a crucial back stab, which destroyed Chen Youliang''s power in one fell swoop.
If Xiao Yan just betrayed Chen Youliang, it would not have any impact on his reputation. After all, Chen Youliang''s reputation is not good. Can betrayal of him be called betrayal?
That is called abandoning darkness and turning to light.
But after rebelling against Chen and Yuan, Xiao Yan once again betrayed King Zhao Yuan Shao at a critical moment and defected to the new lord Qin Hao, which made people have to despise his character.
Although Xiao Yan''s betrayal this time was a helpless move, Bohai was already dead at that time, and he had to surrender if he wanted to survive, the people in the world would not consider so much. They only knew that Xiao Yan rebelled on his master twice, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a slave of the four surnames.
Xiao Yan rebelled against Yuan and surrendered to Qin. Although he saved his life and obtained a high position, his reputation was completely bad. Not only did it despise the people of the world, but even the generals of the Qin army looked down on him.
After all, Xiao Yan has been betrayed twice in a row, and he is still at the most critical moment. Such a person who may rebel at any time is a colleague. Who can leave his back to him with peace of mind?
It would be fine if the generals of the Qin army looked down on Xiao Yan, but even the surrendered generals of the Zhao army looked down on Xiao Yan. Although both sides were surrendered as surrendered ministers, they surrendered after being captured alive, which was not the same as Xiao Yan''s voluntary surrender.
Xiao Yan was despised by the generals of the Qin army and hostile to the surrendered generals of the Zhao army. He gradually became isolated in the army, and the entire Xiao family was affected.
The Xiao family has been a big family for two hundred years and has never experienced anything in the officialdom. This isolation is not a good sign. The whole family is extremely frightened by this.
Some people even suggested that Xiao Yan should commit suicide to thank the world, and the Xiao family in the province was dragged down by Xiao Yan''s reputation.
The person who said this was naturally severely punished by the head of the Xiao family. After all, Xiao Yan is the person with the highest official position in the Xiao family. If he dies, all the investments of the Xiao family will be wasted.
At this moment, the Hebei family proposed to marry the King of Qin, and of course the partner who married the King of Qin had to choose the most beautiful woman in Hebei.
So, why is there so few Xiao Meiniang, who is known as the No. 1 beauty in Hebei and is also among the top in the Hundred Flowers List?
There are many different opinions about the dispute over the number one beauty in Hebei. Some support Xiao Meiniang, and some support Zhen Mi.
With the blessing of the halo of the Xiao family''s prominent family, Xiao Meiniang won the title of the No. 1 beauty in Hebei, while Zhen Mi, who was born in a business family, had only obtained the title of the No. 1 beauty in Jizhou.
The Xiao family’s reputation is very bad now. Logically speaking, it is not qualified to marry the King of Qin at all. However, Xiao Meiniang is the most famous beauty in Hebei. If she was not her in the marriage partner, what would the King of Qin think after he knew it?
Are your Hebei families perfunctory to me?
Therefore, even if the Hebei family does not like the Xiao family, in order to see that the Xiao family has produced the No. 1 beauty in Hebei, Xiao Meiniang must be added to the marriage list.
After learning that there was a Xiao family among the four marriage families, the Xiao family was naturally ecstatic. After all, the Xiao family is in a bad situation now, but if they successfully marry the King of Qin, not only will all difficulties collapse, but the family will also be further improved. The Xiao family, who has a marriage quota, was ecstatic and very nervous. They were not worried that the King of Qin would look down on Xiao Meiniang, but they were afraid that the King of Qin would refuse to marry Xiao Meiniang because of the current popularity of the Xiao family.
So, when the news of the Qin King''s marriage with Xiao Zhen was returned, the Xiao family was almost in full bloom.
They thought that the King of Qin focused on morality and turned out to be a good-looking party who looked at his face, but it was precisely because of this that the Xiao family had the opportunity.
"Sister, that sorcerer is right. You are indeed the fate of ''mother''." Xiao Yan said with a smile.
Like Zhen Mi, Xiao Meiniang also had a master telling fortunes for her. Zhen Mi calculated that she was "noble and unspeakable", while Xiao Meiniang was "the mother was in the world, and her fate was accompanied by peach blossoms". Since then, her status in the family has risen sharply.
Xiao Meiniang has a gentle personality, is studious and literary, is naturally beautiful, charming, and naturally understands what her marriage with the King of Qin means to her and her family.
"Brother, the saying of the mother in the world must not be mentioned outside in the future."
Xiao Meiniang frowned slightly and said with a serious look on her face: "That''s just the words of a sorcerer, I can''t take it seriously."
"I understand, understand."
Xiao Yan showed a sense of pride. Of course he knew what his sister meant. After all, the Qin King''s back house was not peaceful. Not only was there a Wannian Princess, but also an Empress of the Ming Dynasty. If his sister''s comments on "Mother''s Mother''s World" were spread, they might be targeted by these two women.
"The lord chose to marry our Xiao family and the Zhen family this time, which is also expressing his ambitions to the people of the world." Xiao Yan sighed lightly.
"What does brother mean?" Xiao Meiniang asked in confusion.
"The lord rejected the daughters of Tian Xin''s family, but wanted to welcome you, the sister of "mother''s charity in the world", and the Zhen Mi, who is ''noble and unspeakable'', aren''t her ambition obvious enough?" Xiao Yan said, his eyes full of envy.
His sisters, Xiao Meiniang and Zhen Mi, are women that all men in the world dream of but cannot get, while Qin Hao can easily have them at the same time. How can all men not envy and jealous?
"Brother, you mean..."
Xiao Meiniang opened her mouth slightly, her eyes full of shock. She stopped halfway through her words and didn''t dare to continue.
Xiao Yan did not respond, but looked at Xiao Meiniang solemnly and said, "The Xiao family will rely on you in the future."
Xiao Meiniang nodded slightly, feeling the burden on her shoulders was heavy.
The Hebei family wanted to hold the wedding immediately, but Qin Hao refused because the war was not over. However, in order to reassure the Hebei family, all the etiquettes of engagement were carried out.
After getting married to Zhen Mi and Xiao Meiniang, Qin Hao could clearly feel that the hatred and vigilance of the Hebei family for him disappeared, the implementation of the new policy in Hebei was even more unimpeded, and the people began to quickly move closer to the Qin army. This is the benefit of marriage.
At this point, Jizhou and Qingbei completely belonged to the Qin army, and Qin Hao also began to rectify the surrendered army at a deeper level.
