by Haruki Murakami 16:30,Jul 14,2023


Scott Shen mind turned rapidly, flashing countless plans.

At this moment, the front door closed directly, separating him from the outside.

This is normal, because the Governor is going to discuss a secret matter, Scott Shen is just an outsider after all, it is impossible for him to participate.

...

"Who is the person from the Zhu Family?" the Governor asked.

"Governor Ralph Zhu's younger brother, General Pingnan Layne Zhu!" said the confidant, and then handed over the secret letter from Feige in Nujiang City.

The Governor looked at it again, his face was livid.

It turned out to be General Layne Zhu . Things are extremely bad, right?

This represents the Zhu Family's determination to win!

Moreover, such a matter of asking for a marriage could have been done generously, but General Layne Zhu rushed to come secretly. It can be seen that he wanted to catch the Governor's Mansion by surprise and did not want to give the Jin Family any chance to refuse.

Hanson Zhu marriage proposal to Mulan Jin is definitely not an ordinary marriage, but to implement the New Agreement.

What is the most important thing to seize the fiefdom and military power of Earl Xuanwu's Governor's Mansion? Let the Governor's Mansion lose the general who commanded the army, and the Governor's Son of the Governor's Mansion Mansion is a worthless fool, and it is impossible to keep the family business.

Once Mulan Jin married Hanson Zhu, it would tear down the pillars of the Governor's Mansion and indirectly take away the military power of the Governor's Mansion.

The Governor's Wife trembled, "Husband, can we refuse?"

The Governor shook his head and said, "No, the Zhu Family is a colossus. If they blatantly refuse it, it would be tantamount to losing their face. Besides, there may be a King's intention behind this proposal."

Mulan Jin said, "My daughter will never marry outside. I must stay at home to help my younger brother. I must guard the century-old foundation of the Jin Family family. Anyone who wants to take it away will have to step on my dead body."

The Governor panted, frowned, and paced uneasily in the room.

Mulan Jin said, "Father, a daughter can destroy her appearance."

Then, she directly pulled out the dagger, and as long as the Governor gave an order, she would slash her beautiful face to pieces.

"No!"Governor Xuanwu said decisively, "I want to protect the family's century-old foundation, but first of all, I want to protect my daughter from harm. And even if you ruin your appearance, the Zhu Family will still propose to you, unless... "

Mulan Jin said, "Unless my daughter gets married today, recruits a son-in-law, and gets married before the arrival of General Layne Zhu , it will be an established fact that he will quit and cannot propose to me!"

That's right, this is already the only way, not even an engagement, because there is no such thing as an engagement when recruiting a son-in-law.

General Layne Zhu is only less than two hundred miles away from the Xuanwu Governor's Mansion, and he can arrive tonight.

Originally, even if he was looking for a son-in-law, Governor Xuanwu planned to make a good selection.

We are going to get married tonight, which means we have to send out wedding invitations before noon. Within two hours, the son-in-law must be selected.

Looking at his beautiful and strong daughter, Governor Xuanwu said softly in his heart, "Mulan, Zhu Family is in full bloom, so Hanson Zhu will also have a bright future. He is an excellent son-in-law. As a father, you cannot sacrifice your happiness for the benefit of the family. Otherwise, why don't you think about it?"

Jin Mulan Jin , Miss Governor's Mansion , said, "Father, it is my greatest happiness to be able to contribute to the family. After a hundred years, your younger brother will definitely not be able to keep the inheritance of his ancestors. I will never marry."

The Governor was immediately distressed and moved, and then he directly picked up the pen and ink, and wrote five names on a piece of white paper.

These five people are very outstanding young people, and they are also the best candidates for son-in-law in the Governor mind.

The Governor loves his daughter very much, and started looking for a husband for her three years ago. It's just that after all, it's hard to talk about recruiting people, and more importantly, Mulan Jin has always refused.

Now that time is running out, we must make a decision early.

The first name chosen by the five husbands-in-law was Ryan Wang.

An eighteen-year-old young talent, now the Secretary of Xuanwu City and a distant relative of the Governor's Mansion.

The second name is Jack Mo, a martial arts genius in Xuanwu City, who won the martial arts exam at the age of sixteen, and is practicing martial arts hard, and is preparing for the martial arts Jinshi examination.

These two are young men with a bright future, and the remaining three are young heroes in the Governor. They have both culture and martial arts. They were trained by the Jin Family since they were young. Their loyalty to the Governor's Mansion is beyond doubt.

These five people admired Mulan Jin very much and yearned for dreams.

To be precise, all young people within a few hundred miles regard Mulan Jin as the lover of their dreams.

"Rian Jin, send someone to bring these five people to the mansion as quickly as possible, and let Mulan choose." The Governor handed over the list to the loyal servant.

The Governor already felt very sorry for his daughter, so he only decided on five candidates, but the final decision was still handed over to Mulan.

"Yes!" After Rian Jin took the list, he put the list in his arms, walked out, and sent a dozen Knight to find someone.

The Governor said, "Mulan, although the time is tight, I will definitely find the best candidate for you as a father, and I will make you a happy life. These five young people are all very good, you should choose one carefully."

And at this moment, Scott Shen walked in and said, "Governor Earl, Miss Mulan, can I join the competition? I also want to marry you!"

As soon as these words came out, all the people present were stunned, and they didn't react all of a sudden. They were really caught off guard.

Then, Governor Xuanwu couldn't help it with such a good self-cultivation, and his whole body almost exploded.

Not only the Governor, but especially the other people present looked at Scott Shen with the feeling that they wished to tear him to pieces.

Just, it's up to you? I also want to marry the lady of the Governor's Mansion!

Appearance is definitely enough, but you are so handsome, suitable to be a duck, not wishful thinking.

What is your family background? Just a farmer who is too poor to live in a thatched hut.

Of course, one cannot choose one's family background. If you are good enough, Governor Earl can consider it. After all, it is difficult for a married son-in-law to come from a wealthy family.

But Scott Shen, take a pee and take care of yourself?

After studying for ten years, he couldn't even graduate from the school in the town, so he was directly kicked out.

For future generations of Earth, this is equivalent to studying professionally, and one has not yet graduated from elementary school at the age of eighteen.

Born in a poor peasant family, but he can't lift his shoulders or hands, he is lazy and a waste.

Everyone in Xuanwu City knows that you, Scott Shen, have brain problems and low intelligence.

Compared to the five candidates listed by the Governor, you, Scott Shen, are really worthless.

Those five young heroes are either talented in literature or martial arts, you, Scott Shen, are completely useless.

The most unbearable thing is that you, Scott Shen, abandoned your parents to join the Xu Family because of your greed for wealth and honor. Now that you were kicked out by the Xu Family and abandoned by Celestine Xu, you still want to marry the daughter of my Governor's Mansion's Mansion?

What do you think of my Governor's Mansion?

How much is my Governor Xuanwu's daughter more expensive than Celestine Xu? Even if you want to recruit a son-in-law, you have to choose from thousands of choices. You are a toad who wants to eat swan meat!

The Governor's Wife stepped forward to comfort her husband's back, and said softly, "Don't be angry, my lord. I heard that Scott Shen is not mentally sound, and he is still a child. What do we do with his knowledge?"

Governor Xuanwu let out a long breath.

That's right, this is a mentally ill person, and he is still a child, what does the Governor care about with him?

"Come here, send this prodigal son home first, and send ten Gold Coins in addition, remember to give it to his parents, not to him."The Governor said, "I will send someone to pick him up to study in the mansion tomorrow. Discipline."

"Yes!" Two Soldier stepped forward, grabbed Scott Shen's arm and dragged him out forcibly.

Shen Lang said, "Miss Mulan, I believe that I am far more suitable than those five people. To be your husband, don't I even have the qualifications to compete?"

Mulan Jin looked at Scott Shen, and looked at him for a long time and said, "I remember, when I went hunting three years ago, I accidentally bumped into you on a horse, you are a Second Fool..."

Hello! Goddess, you are too honest and hurtful to speak like this.

That's right, no one named Scott Shen in the village was called Second Fool, because there was another Big Fool in the village, and he was Scott Shen only friend at the time.

At that time, after Mulan Jin's war horse accidentally injured Scott Shen, she immediately picked him up and asked the people in the village what his name was and where his home was, and the other party replied that he was an Second Fool.

Hearing the word "Second Fool", the Governor couldn't help but twitched.

Shen Lang said, "Miss Mulan, I also want to marry you, and I will definitely not let you down."

Mulan Jin looked at Scott Shen with gentle eyes.

Even a little gentle.

Three years ago, he heard the story of Scott Shen and knew that he was a mentally retarded person, so he felt very sympathetic to him, went to see him several times, and sent the best doctor to treat him.

In short, Mulan Jin looked at him as if he was looking at a child, and at that time, Scott Shen low IQ was equivalent to that of a child?

Mulan is very disappointed with the intrigue in the adult world, but she is very friendly to the innocence of children.

Therefore, Mulan Jin looked at Shen Lang and said, "Okay, I will add you to the list, and you can also compete fairly."

Others discriminate against Scott Shen, but she does not.

The Governor was about to stop, but Mulan Jin smiled and said, "Father, what are you worried about?"

The Governor laughed at himself for a while, yes, what am I worried about.

Mulan was only kind and sympathetic, so Scott Shen was included in the candidate list, and it was impossible to choose him, so why worry about it and get so idle.

"Come here, take Scott Shen to the sixth study room!" the Governor ordered.

...

An hour later!

The other five young heroes were brought to Earl Xuanwu's Governor's Mansion and brought into five study rooms, Scott Shen was in the sixth study room.

They don't see each other, they don't know who the other is.

It was personally selected by Mulan Jin and inspected through a screen.

Time was running out, people had to be selected before noon, and they had to get married in the evening, at most there was only one hour, and one of the six people had to be selected to be Mulan Jin's husband-in-law.

Mulan walked into the study, and the selection of the son-in-law of the Governor's Mansion officially started!
