In his previous life, he was an orphan and had no experience of meeting his father-in-law. However, Gu Qing knew that meeting his mother-in-law was a very dangerous thing. Several people with completely random personalities sat together and pretended to get along very well, using a form of chatting and laughing to complete their understanding of each other's personalities.

Testing of character and understanding of material conditions.

What's even more disturbing is that the decision-making power about the marriage is often not in one's hands. The feeling of uneasiness after meeting is equivalent to the number of years waiting to be sentenced to a fixed-term prison sentence.

This feeling is really bad. Even though Gu Qing is now in great power and even the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is afraid of big shots, when facing a small judge from Qizhou Prefecture, Gu Qing still feels flustered, short of breath and irregular heartbeat.

.

"What kind of gift should I prepare to make it look grand?" Gu Qing murmured, as if he was asking himself or Duan Wuji.

Duan Wuji was speechless. After Zhang Huaiyu left, the prince seemed to have lost his soul. He sat alone in the yard and talked in a daze, as if he was possessed by an evil spirit.

"Your Majesty, you have met Sister Huaiyu's parents back then, why are you still so nervous today?" Duan Wuji asked in confusion.

"You don't understand. My father-in-law is a very evil existence. She can do anything to stir up trouble and stir up trouble. My daughter's parents are confident because they are my daughter's parents. However, I really don't dare to order them to be killed. I must be cautious when dealing with such a naturally invincible person.

." Gu Qing said seriously.

Duan Wuji laughed: "It's not that serious. Your Majesty is the king of the county. Sister Huaiyu's parents would never dare to be rude to him."

"It's different this time. When we talk about marriage, they might give me a blow..." Gu Qing said solemnly.

Duan Wuji sighed: "No, they don't have the courage. Your Majesty, you don't know how terrible your reputation is now. The emperor is very afraid of you. Sister Huaiyu's parents will never dare to give you power. Maybe

They are also trembling with fear at this moment."

Gu Qing raised his head and looked at him: "When you and your mother-in-law were talking about marriage, your father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't make trouble behind your back?"

Duan Wuji smiled bitterly and said: "The student's wife also came from a poor background in the countryside. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law were very kind. In those years, a porcelain kiln was set up in the village, which made life easier. My wife is from a neighboring village, and they took the initiative to ask a matchmaker to marry their daughter off.

After coming to Shiqiao Village, the student's parents selected a girl with good looks and good conduct. The daughter-in-law was very happy to be married to Shiqiao Village, so she could not stir up trouble behind her back."

Gu Qing snorted and said, "Are you shaking? Are you picking on someone else?"

Duan Wuji hurriedly said: "Thanks to the prince who set up a porcelain kiln in Shiqiao Village, the lives of the people in Shiqiao Village have gotten better and better since then, and it has become one of the richest villages in Qingcheng County and even the entire Jiannan Road. The prince planted trees and taught us

These young people are taking advantage of the cold weather."

"That's all, your life is getting better and better as time goes by, and I'm doing well..." Gu Qing murmured: "You are lucky to have a pair of kind-hearted parents-in-law. It's hard to say that I have two kind-hearted parents-in-law, especially

It’s the mother-in-law who is not Huaiyu’s biological mother, and she comes from the Xie family in Chen County... By the way, there is also an uneasy brother-in-law, Zhang Huaisheng.”

Duan Wuji shook his head and said: "The so-called aristocratic families are mostly in decline, and the power in the hands of the prince is the last word. The student really can't figure out why the prince is so afraid of Sister Huaiyu's parents. To be fair, with the prince's current status, the Zhang family should

It’s about reaching a higher level.”

Gu Qing sighed: "In more than a thousand years, you will know how terrible your father-in-law and mother-in-law are..."

Then Gu Qing suddenly showed a fierce look in his eyes and said ferociously: "Why don't you bring any gifts? Take a death row prisoner from Jingzhao Mansion's death row and chop him into pieces at the door of Zhang's house. Let's kill a chicken to scare the monkeys. If you don't believe them, they dare not marry your daughter."

"

Duan Wuji's eyes widened in shock: "Well, Your Majesty, there is no need to engage in such a battle, right?"

"That's right. If my future father-in-law turns out to be a nerd who doesn't care about death, the situation will be a bit embarrassing. It's better to follow the normal procedure and bring gifts to the door."

…………

Meeting your father-in-law and your mother-in-law is not a pleasant experience, but you have to endure it no matter how uncomfortable it is. You cannot avoid this hurdle no matter what.

So Gu Qing asked Duan Wuji to personally deliver a name card to the Zhang family. The name card told the Zhang family and his wife very politely in the name of a junior that he would visit them in the afternoon and if possible, don't leave after school...

What Gu Qing imagined was that Zhang Zheng and his wife were very uneasy after receiving the invitation.

Duan Wuji was right. Nowadays, Gu Qing's reputation is so great that it is known all over the world, and most of it has a illustrious reputation. After several battles with the rebels, the Anxi Army has gained a reputation, and Gu Qing is naturally famous all over the world, both in the government and in the public.

There are praises, but the murderous nature of Gu Qing is also becoming more and more mysterious.

Legend has it that Gu Qing never took prisoners on the battlefield. Every enemy captured in a battle was killed on the spot. The number of enemy troops killed in his hands was often in the tens of thousands.

Compared to the gentle and elegant young man when they first met, Gu Qing is now more terrifying and fearful to Zhang Zheng and his wife. However, this powerful and murderous official has fallen in love with his daughter. Zhang Zheng really

I don't know whether to be happy or sad.

One is the county king, and the other is the judge who bows to the governor of the state and city. The power of the son-in-law firmly overpowers the father-in-law, making the father-in-law both helpless and frightened.

"How come this damn girl was chosen by Gu Qing?" Zhang Zheng sighed helplessly, and the name card in his hand seemed to be hot, and he threw it on the table.

Madam Zhang Xie looked happy. The Zhang family was gradually declining. Zhang Jiuzhang, the only one of the Zhang family's nine ministers, was about to become an official. As a daughter of a noble family, she could get a prince as her son-in-law. The Zhang family's

Isn't it true that the future will become more and more promising, and I will be able to hold my head high in front of my parents' family?

Besides, this county prince is a big shot with real power. I heard that even the emperor is afraid of him. As an in-law, the Zhang family's future power will surely rise and become more and more prosperous, especially his own son Zhang Huaisheng.

Being able to get a good official position from his son-in-law, and then join the court and become a court official can be regarded as a glorious ancestor.

Zhang Xie is quite snobbish. Compared with when she first met Gu Qing, who was always unpleasant to her eyes, now Gu Qing is pleasing to her eyes everywhere, and even his farts are fragrant.

"Husband, Gu Qing is no longer what he used to be. I heard that he has great power. Husband, you must not act like an elder when you meet him. The Zhang family is seeing that it is already in trouble and is relying on this son-in-law for more help." Zhang

Mrs. Xie said happily.

Zhang Zheng's expression became increasingly ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "What do you know! Gu Qing has great power, but it may not be a good thing for the Zhang family, and it may lead to the annihilation of the family."

"Why?"

Zhang Zheng sneered and said: "You only see Gu Qing's power, but not his crisis. The Anxi army is powerful, and the powerful ministers look down on the court. The emperor dare not disrespect him. If the emperor is weak and the minister is strong, there will be military disasters. No one can

If you are willing to be content with the status quo, how can the emperor remain unmoved by Gu Qingzhi's power?"

Zhang Xie said: "So what?"

Zhang Zheng said with a gloomy face: "Once the emperor and Gu Qing meet in battle, they will fight to the death. If Gu Qing is defeated, how can the Zhang family, as Gu Qing's in-laws, survive alone? The nine clans have been executed, and we will accompany him to the execution ground.

.”

Zhang Xie's face turned a little pale and she said, "What should we do? This marriage..."

Zhang Zheng said with a cold face: "This marriage... I actually want to refuse it."

After all, Zhang Xie's family is a woman. Hearing this, he suddenly said with some reluctance: "Gu Qing may not be defeated, right? If Gu Qing wins in the future, the court will change, and today my husband rejects Gu Qing's marriage proposal, wouldn't he be resentful by him?

? Even if he misses the old love and doesn’t kill the Zhang family, I’m afraid that my husband’s future career will be completely cut off..."

Zhang Zheng scratched his head irritably.

This is basically a matter of choosing one of two sides. It is a proposition. No matter which side you choose, your life will be in danger.

Just when the couple was hesitating, a cold voice came from outside the door.

"Father, I'm afraid you won't be able to refuse this marriage."

Zhang Zheng and his wife looked up in shock and saw Zhang Huaiyu, dressed in white, standing quietly at the door, looking at them indifferently.

Zhang Zheng frowned and said: "Why can't I refuse the marriage of my children? Do you think I am afraid of Gu Qing's military power?"

Zhang Huaiyu's eyelids were half drooped and he said softly: "My daughter knows that my father has the integrity to rather die than surrender, but my daughter has decided on Gu Qing in this life and will not marry him unless he is the one. If my father is worried that the Zhang family will be implicated in the future, please ask my father to expel my daughter from the house."

, From now on, my daughter’s life and death will have nothing to do with the Zhang family.”

Zhang Zheng was stunned for a moment, then became furious: "For Gu Qing, you don't even want your parents?"

"My daughter is thinking about the life of the whole family. I am determined to marry Gu Qing, but my daughter cannot put the Zhang family in danger for the sake of her own love for her children. Expelling her from the family is the best way."

Zhang Zheng was so angry that he stood up and slapped the table. Zhang Xie quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes and winked at him.

Zhang Zheng calmed down a little, and Mrs. Zhang Xie showed a caring expression again, smiling gently: "Huaiyu, although I am not your biological mother, I have treated you over the years...cough, but your surname is Zhang, and you are a daughter of the Zhang family.

, this is unavoidable, let me ask you, Gu Qing...will he really meet the emperor in battle?"

Zhang Huaiyu pursed her lips and said nothing. She would not answer this question. If the answer was spread, it would be detrimental to Gu Qing.

Zhang Xie waited for a long time without getting an answer, and was a little dissatisfied. But now Gu Qing's identity is different, and she can't show her face to Zhang Huaiyu casually. She knows that Gu Qing is a very protective person. He almost went to the Zhang family for Zhang Huaiyu.

Her biological son Zhang Huaisheng was deposed.

So Zhang Xie said in a friendly manner: "I heard that Gu Qing's 100,000-strong Anxi army is invincible in every battle and never suffers a defeat. Is this true?"

Zhang Huaiyu said coldly: "That's right."

"If Gu Qingruo meets the emperor in battle, what are the chances of winning?"

Zhang Zheng looked at her in shock and said angrily: "How can Madam say that she has no king and no father!"

Zhang Xie turned her head and suddenly changed her face: "Shut up! Apart from being a pedantic nerd, what else do you know? This marriage is both a crisis and an opportunity, and the opportunity comes from gambling!"

Zhang Zheng stared at her dumbfounded. At this time, Zhang Xie's eyes turned away from her snobbish expression, and there was a hint of elite light in her eyes.

This is probably what a true child of an aristocratic family looks like. No matter how snobbish Zhang Xie is on weekdays, she is still a child who has been educated by an aristocratic family since childhood. At the critical moment, she is actually more courageous than Zhang Zheng.

The reason why an aristocratic family is an aristocratic family is that in addition to its rich heritage, it must also have the courage to take a chance and use a big gamble to gain the family's century-old glory. This is how most of the aristocratic families in the world started.

At this moment, Zhang Xie was assessing the situation and deciding on which side his chips should be placed.

Zhang Huaiyu was also a little surprised and looked at her blankly. This stepmother had never been kind to her, and her usually powerful and arrogant look seemed particularly annoying. I didn't expect her to have such a side.

Zhang Xie frowned and said, "Tell me, what are the chances of winning between Gu Qing and the Emperor?"

Zhang Huaiyu composed himself and said: "I think... Gu Qing has a higher chance of winning."

Zhang Xie said calmly: "Why do you think so?"

"The Anxi Army is invincible in the world. You two adults may not have seen it with your own eyes, but I have seen it. Even if the emperor mobilizes all the soldiers of the country to fight against it, I am afraid that he will not be a match for the Anxi Army. I can only see with my own eyes what the Anxi Army does on the battlefield.
