Chapter 86 Proposal (2)
Cheng Wang was full of doubts, but he did not reveal his face. He asked respectfully: "The Duke of the State summoned him, but I think it was because he was occasionally unwell. The official is going to treat the Duke of the State."
"There is no hurry to see the doctor." Duke Ping's attitude today was so kind that it made his scalp numb: "I haven't used breakfast yet. Doctor Cheng had a coincidence, so why not use breakfast together!"
Before Cheng Wang could refuse, Duke Ping had already ordered his personal soldiers: "Order people to pass on breakfast."
Cheng Wang: "..."
Such courtesy makes people feel nervous and nervous.
Cheng Wang refused repeatedly: "If you have any questions, please give me orders. The subordinates must do their best. The subordinates have a low position. How can they sit together with the nobles? "
Duke Ping Guo smiled and said, "Doctor Cheng doesn't have to be afraid. Sit down quickly!"
Cheng Wang refused but had to sit down opposite Duke Ping.
Little did they know that the Duke Pingguo on the opposite side was also very complicated.
He received a letter from his mother early in the morning.
There is only one content in the letter, which is that his dandy son He Qi, who is notorious, falls in love with a girl and wants to marry someone as his wife.
This girl's biological father was a medical officer in the border army, and was Cheng Wang, who was known as the miracle doctor of the border.
"...Sanlang fell in love with Miss Cheng, and I also met Miss Cheng himself. She is young and beautiful, intelligent and has excellent medical skills. I also like this granddaughter-in-law."
"You will go to propose marriage to Dr. Cheng immediately after receiving this letter. Don't waste time. Such a good girl was hired first by someone else."
"I only give you three days to get things done."
When he was "disciplined" by his mother since childhood, Duke Pingguo, who was old, was very distressed when he saw his mother's domineering and mighty letter.
He Qi was so stubborn and willful. As a grandmother’s grandmother, it would be fine if she didn’t stop him, but she even supported He Qi!
The future wife of the Prince of the Duke of Pingguo should be a lady from a famous family. The daughter of a sixth-rank medical official, who is born in this family, is really inferior.
However, Duke Ping knew the temperament of the Taima. Since she supported He Qi, he had to nod whether he was happy with this marriage.
So, Duke Ping endured his anger and asked someone to invite Cheng Wang over.
If you are proposing a marriage, there is no hurry for the time being. Let’s take a look at the words of Cheng Wang first.
...
The food in the army is just enough to be full, but it is not considered exquisite.
Cheng Wang was full of thoughts and slowly drank a bowl of hot porridge and ate a steamed bun.
The Duke of Pingguo had a considerable appetite. He drank three bowls of porridge and four steamed buns in a row and swept away the dishes. He was worthy of being the chief general in the army, and his appetite alone was better than that of a group of military generals!
Breakfast is over.
It's time to talk about the serious business.
Duke Ping coughed and said inadvertently, "Dr. Cheng has been widowed for many years and heard that there is a girl under his knees. I don't know where he is now?"
Very thoroughly, asked his daughter what she did?
Cheng Wang was very alert and replied respectfully: "The princess returned to China, and the subordinates were medical officers in the border army and had no time to take care of their daughter. Over the years, he had been entrusting his daughter to his uncle for care. However, the little girl has already reached the throne and has now returned to the Cheng family."
Duke Ping nodded and asked casually: "Since your daughter has already settled, has she ever made a marriage?"
Cheng Wang: "..."
Sima Zhao's heart can be seen without asking.
Cheng Wang looked at Duke Ping in shock.
It was a bit awkward to do this for the first time in his life. Cheng Wang looked at it in disbelief and felt a little embarrassed. He coughed again: "I just asked casually, and I have no other intentions."
I believe you will have a ghost!
Cheng Wang came back from the shock, his mind turned to light and replied respectfully: "The little girl has not yet been engaged."
Duke Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Cheng Wang continued respectfully, "The little girl has studied medicine since she was young, and now she is in the Huimin Pharmacy Hall for free. My brother has signed up for her in the May Imperial Hospital examination."
"She is a girl's family and doesn't want to marry and have children. She has ambitions and wants to go to the Imperial Hospital to be a female imperial physician. I sent me a letter yesterday saying that no matter who proposes marriage, she cannot respond."
"I can't do anything to her, so I have to agree to her."
Duke Pingguo: "..."
Duke Pingguo touched a soft nail and was disappointed.
It's not easy to have an attack.
Duke Ping pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled awkwardly and stiffly: "It's worthy of being Dr. Cheng's beloved daughter, it's really unique."
Cheng Wang sighed: "I will not hide it from the Duke of the Country. My deceased wife has passed away for many years. I am only such a daughter. Because I am in office, I cannot stay with my daughter forever, and I feel very guilty."
"Don't talk about this wish, even if she wants to recruit a wife, the subordinate will agree to her."
Duke Pingguo: "..."
have to!
Don't mention anything!
Duke Pingguo calmed down and smiled as usual, saying, "Everyone said that his mother was very kind. Today I realized that Junshu Cheng was also kind to his father's heart."
When Cheng Wang saw that it was good, he stopped talking and asked Duke Ping’s health when he was not feeling well. Then he took the pulse of Duke Ping’s strong Duke Ping’s pulse and prescribed a prescription to clear heat and remove dryness, and then respectfully said he left.
...
After Cheng Wang left, the forced smile on Duke Ping's face collapsed.
Before the word "proposal" was blocked, he had been blocked. Before, he despised the Cheng family's low family, and his relationship with Cheng Wang and his father and daughter had no intention of competing with the He family at all!
He Qi, this bastard!
How did you provoke other girls?
If you provoke me, I still don’t want to marry me! It’s so embarrassing!
Duke Ping was very angry and paced back and forth.
The personal soldiers came to report: "Qi reported to the Duke of the Kingdom, General He is looking for a meeting outside."
General He, who was mentioned by his personal soldiers, was He Song, the younger brother of Duke Pingguo. He Song was the chief general of the army, with 20,000 elite soldiers under his command. He led troops to practice or led troops to patrol himself, and had a good reputation in the army. He was able to be called the right-hand man of Duke Pingguo.
Duke Ping's expression slowed down: "Let him come in."
A moment later, He Song entered the tent.
He Song is like his brother He Lin, tall and has the unique bravery of a military general. Duke Pingguo looks like the wife of the Tai, and He Song is more like the deceased Duke Pingguo.
Meeting with officials below He Song.
Duke Ping said impatiently: "Brother, don't be so polite."
He Song knew that his brother was in a bad mood as soon as he heard this. After getting up, he asked tentatively: "What's wrong with the eldest brother? Have you encountered any trouble?"
There is nothing wrong with talking to my brothers.
Duke Ping snorted and said the whole story: "...This incompetent bastard! The wife he liked was married back to his house if he had the ability. He insisted that I come forward to propose marriage for him. Today, he lost all my face!"
He Song was so amused that he opened his mouth to plead for his nephew: "The young man was passionate and impulsive, and he was moved for a moment, and he was energetic for a moment. Maybe he would be left behind in a few days."
Duke Ping said angrily: "It's his business whether to throw it away or not! In short, don't even think I'll propose marriage for him again!"
Chapter completed!
