Girl, there's something wrong with you

The Cheng family in the capital city was already in a state of excitement even before the outside world got the news.

The clan leader is about to start the second round of the Northern Expedition and regain Luoyang!

For a time, many elders of the family who usually had no sense of presence came out one after another to walk around the streets and visit every house in the clan area.

He came here for nothing else but to talk about "recovering the land of the old schedule clan". When it comes to the emotional part, I still shed tears and sigh, "In my lifetime, I can finally bury my bones in my hometown and go to see my ancestors with peace of mind."

The old people were very emotional, but the young people didn't feel any melancholy. Everyone was very excited.

In other words, due to the influence of Wang Chuzhong's rebellion, a large number of middle-aged people from the Cheng family in the divine capital were killed in the war, and the entire family's population was rapidly getting younger. However, the importance that young people attach to the word "hometown" is ultimately Don't know anything.

But the name of Luoyang, the sacred capital, is already attractive enough. It is almost more worthy of bragging than the old capital Chang'an.

When the Cheng family in the capital city encountered this important event, well-connected families such as the Hejian Xing family, Sanchuan Zhu family, etc. also came to congratulate them - and also inquired about the details of the Northern Expedition.

Cheng Huaiyan is a boring gourd. Everyone knows that if you ask this guy, you will only get answers such as "um", "ah" and "not bad".

As a result, Cheng Yuexian became a key target of harassment, and there was an almost endless stream of visitors. Whether they were close girlfriends, friends, elders, or people who had met in certain social situations, they all handed in greeting cards at this time.

She was so annoyed that she stayed up all night and had to rely on sleeping pills to fall asleep.

When Cheng Jinyang received the news, he was a little speechless, so he simply took some time and rushed back to the Jingkou tribe from Wuchang.

As soon as I arrived at the clan site, I saw that it was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and it was as lively as an ancestor worship ceremony.

Green trees, rockeries, pavilions and pavilions are all decorated with various lanterns, wind chimes, mottos, etc.

In addition to promoting the family's ancestors and showing off the family's heritage, this time it also focused on praising the contribution of the patriarch Cheng Jinyang himself.

Such words as "the lucky emperor and concubine", "leader of the gentry", "pacification of Sichuan and Shu", "recovering Nanyang", all kinds of colorful words are used.

He was stunned here, but Cheng Yuexian got the information and knew that the clan leader had returned, and immediately rushed out in a fierce manner.

"Jinyang!" The first thing she said when they met was, "I want to resign!"

"Resign?" Cheng Jinyang said, "Are you kidding me?"

"Yes, resign!" Cheng Yuexian said angrily, "I quit!"

"Wait a minute." Cheng Jinyang waved his hand, "Let's find a place to sit down and talk."

The two came to a teahouse in the clan area. As soon as they sat down, Cheng Yuexian began to pour out his bitter words:

"From the time you went to conquer Shu... Of course, you didn't care about anything before that. But since you went to conquer Shu, most of the things in the clan have been piled on my head!"

"Sister Yuexian, please don't worry." Cheng Jinyang said quickly, "Where is Huaiyan?"

"He only works and doesn't talk!" Cheng Yuexian said angrily, "Everyone sees his cold face and is afraid of him, so they come to me for anything they can!"

"Ahem, Brother Huaiyan is actually cold-faced and warm-hearted. Everyone just misunderstood him." Cheng Jinyang said with a smile.

"Anyway, during the period when you were away from the clan, you came to me for all kinds of matters, big and small!" Cheng Yuexian pulled his hair and said frantically, "I was the one who received the visits of the aristocratic family; I was also asked to review the investment agreement; There are even people who want to introduce me to someone, and they come seven or eight times a week..."

"Wait, who are you going to introduce?" Cheng Jinyang exclaimed.

Then he reacted.

Children of aristocratic families often cannot decide on their own marriage due to the consideration of their bloodline talents. Instead, the family's senior leaders select young talents from their own family and those from neighboring families.

However, how can the Cheng family in the divine capital have any high-level officials? The elders had already died in Wang Chuzhong's rebellion. Now the top management is composed of the iron triangle of Cheng Jinyang, Cheng Yuexian, and Cheng Huaiyan. How can they still urge themselves to get married?

Therefore, cousin Cheng Yuexian and cousin Cheng Huaiyan have been single for the past few years and have no time to fall in love.

Of course, although no one within the Cheng family in the divine capital was urging the marriage, the aristocratic families outside naturally didn't think much of it.

Cheng Jinyang's future has been decided here. Sooner or later, it will be a situation where a flying dragon is in the sky, and all the marriage positions have been taken up by families with five surnames.

If you can't cling to Cheng Jinyang, you can cling to someone close to him, right?

Therefore, in the past six months, there has been an endless stream of matchmakers from aristocratic families who introduced partners to Cheng Yuexian and Cheng Huaiyan and tried to get them married.

Cheng Huaiyan is better, after all, he has a dull personality. People would say hundreds or thousands of words, but he would just say um and forcefully block them back.

Cheng Yuexian was in a miserable situation. He knew many people, and he had to take etiquette into consideration and not be rude. As a result, he was bombarded in turns every three days. He suffered from endocrine disorders, increased stress, and almost bloodshot eyes.

"So, Sister Yuexian, what do you think?" Cheng Jinyang asked cautiously.

"I want to resign." Cheng Yuexian said firmly, "Didn't you make that plan before?"

"I'm going to an island in the south for vacation now. Otherwise, if I continue to stay here, I will die of sudden overwork sooner or later!"

Damn, I also want to go to the southern island for vacation! Cheng Jinyang was furious.

I also want to see the ladies wearing straw bras and short skirts!

"Sister Yuexian, what will happen to the family affairs after you leave?" Cheng Jinyang advised earnestly.

"Let Huaiyan do it." Cheng Yuexian said with empty eyes.

"Okay, then there must be a handover period." Cheng Jinyang came up with a delaying strategy, "The handover will take place for a month first. When the handover is smooth, I will approve your leave."

"How can this be done?!" Cheng Yuexian immediately saw through his treacherous plan, "You will have already left for the Northern Expedition in a month. Where can I find you to submit your resignation?"

"Yue Xian." Cheng Jinyang said with a gentle smile, "Since you know that I want to go to the Northern Expedition, but you are holding back, are you trying to dissuade me from the Northern Expedition in disguise?"

Cheng Yuexian was startled by him, and after a while he said weakly:

"I...I didn't mean that..."

"Cousin." Cheng Jinyang put away his smile and said with a sincere expression, "The Northern Expedition is the most important thing now. I am fighting abroad, and the country may not be stable. The clan must not start trouble and attract traitors from outside. Criticize.”

"Cheng Clan, the capital of the gods, only if you take care of it can I feel at ease."

Cheng Yuexian fell silent.

What Cheng Jinyang just said, the implication is very clear: he is out on the Northern Expedition and has been away from the clan for a long time, so he needs someone to help him maintain control of the Cheng family in the divine capital.

Although the current power structure within the clan is the Jinyang-Yuexian-Huaiyan iron triangle, Cheng Huaiyan's side is actually the weakest.

The reason is also very simple. As a woman, Cheng Yuexian takes power and manages the family on behalf of Cheng Jinyang, so she poses less potential threat to Cheng Jinyang.

"Then let me make a request." After about ten minutes of silence, Cheng Yuexian said slowly.

"Say it." Cheng Jinyang said seriously.

"I will resign when you have done your best," Cheng Yuexian said seriously, "Don't force me to stay!"
