Chapter 717
Emperor Liang was extremely angry!
When Daliang was invaded by enemy countries and its people were trampled by them, none of the four great princes stepped forward to help the country. But now, for the sake of Qin Yu, they have sent out all their elite troops!
"Come here! Convey my decree. Have the Ministry of War dispatch 100,000 troops to the southern border. If a war breaks out in the southern border, these 100,000 troops will be under the Crown Prince's command!"
Emperor Liang said in a deep voice.
One hundred thousand soldiers and horses is the limit of what he can mobilize now!
After all, Beiliang and the Turks are ready to make moves, and Daliang has limited troops and has to garrison the border!
Inside the city, Qin Mang welcomed the four marquises into the city with great fanfare!
Shangguan Wan'er learned that the four marquises had gathered and also showed up in Zaocheng.
"Haha! Four uncles! You're finally here! You've made your nephew wait so long!"
Qin Mang said with a big laugh.
The four marquises all looked at Qin Mang with disdain, especially the Marquis of Divine Arrows. Last time, this guy wanted to recognize him as his godfather, and now he directly called him uncle. How shameless!
Shangguan Wan'er stepped forward and saluted respectfully, saying, "Shangguan Wan'er greets the four uncles!"
"Haha! You are Shangguan Wan'er? Not bad! You are indeed graceful and elegant, with the demeanor of a noble person!"
Marquis Shenwu looked at Shangguan Wan'er and said with a smile.
His youngest son is the same age as Shangguan Wan'er. Although Shangguan Xiong was dismissed from his post and investigated, his influence is still there. If Shangguan Xiong wants Shangguan Wan'er to be his daughter-in-law, he doesn't mind helping Shangguan Xiong.
Marquis Yingwu and Marquis Wu'an looked at Shangguan Wan'er and became more and more satisfied. After all, there were not many women like Shangguan Wan'er who were well-educated, came from a prominent family, and were so beautiful. They both wanted Shangguan Wan'er to be their daughter-in-law!
"Haha! It's really good. Old Shangguan Xiong isn't very good-looking, but his daughter is quite striking!"
"My son will be here in a few days, so I'd like you to meet him. If you think he's suitable, I'll send someone to the Shangguan family to propose marriage!"
Marquis Wu'an and Marquis Yingwu spoke out.
Shenwu Hou was stunned at first, then he said, "My son will be here in a few days!"
Shangguan Wan'er chuckled and said, "Thank you for the compliments, uncles. Wan'er is truly flattered!"
"Haha! Let's go! Let's talk inside!"
Marquis Shenwu said with a smile.
The Marquis of Divine Arrows remained silent throughout the entire process. After all, he had already met Qin Mang and Shangguan Wan'er in advance, and he did not have much good feelings towards Shangguan Wan'er!
However, he was the only one among the four marquises who brought his son with him. Moreover, his son Zhao Jian kept his eyes on Shangguan Wan'er, which showed that he had taken a liking to her!
The Marquis of Divine Arrows was so disappointed with his son's pig-like appearance that he wanted to kick Zhao Jian hard on the spot!
Several people entered Qin Mang's mansion. Qin Mang had already ordered people to prepare a banquet. After three rounds of wine, Qin Mang told him what Qin Yu had done to him.
At the same time, he also told how Qin Yu threatened Shangguan Wan'er.
Upon hearing this, the Marquis of Shenwu flew into a rage: "Humph! This Qin Yu is a complete bastard! As the Crown Prince of Daliang, how could he be so unmanly? It's only a few tens of thousands of taels of silver, yet he's so reluctant to part with it!"
"Humph! Wan'er is such a well-behaved and sensible girl. She just bought some extra jewelry, but he actually wanted to use it to threaten her. His intentions are ill-intentioned. He deserves a beating!"
"Humph! I think this Qin Yu thinks he's the crown prince and no one dares to disrespect him, so he dares to act so recklessly and lawless!"
The other marquises also spoke coldly.
Seeing that these people were all standing up for him and Shangguan Wan'er, Qin Mang immediately said, "Uncles, you must stand up for Wan'er and me!"
"Of course I have to make the decision for you. As for that bastard Qin Yu, what qualifications does he have to be the crown prince of Daliang? What qualifications does he have to occupy the southern border? Let's go to Nanli City tomorrow, and we will definitely make the decision for you!"
Shenwu Hou and others all said this.
