Chapter 802: Deng Qiang
Happily dressing up, Feng Suzhen was planning to go out.
But just then, a maid ran over and said, "Young Lady, Master and Mistress want you to go over!"
"Why are Father and Mother calling me?"
Arriving in the hall in confusion, Feng Suzhen inquired with a face full of doubt.
"You are not young anymore. I have found a marriage for you, and you will marry into the Ma family in a few days!"
Looking at Feng Suzhen before him, Master Zhu spoke with a stern face.
Because this was the Zhu family's opportunity; don't look at how he was originally a third-rank official family, but in front of the four great families of the Eastern Jin, it was still not enough to be seen.
Now that his daughter had the opportunity to fly onto the phoenix tree, how could Master Zhu refuse?
Becoming an Empress who mothers the world, his daughter would probably be very happy too!
"What? The Ma family? I won't marry!"
Suddenly hearing this sentence, Feng Suzhen immediately refused, her eyes flashing with an angry expression.
Because she had long been in mutual love with Li Zhaoting, how could she marry a Young Master Ma she had never seen before?
"Not marry?"
Looking at Feng Suzhen before him, Master Zhu immediately roared, "Which book of sages taught you to disobey your parents!"
"Why must you make me marry into the Ma family!"
Looking at her parents in anger, Feng Suzhen questioned them.
"Ignorant! The body, hair, and skin are received from parents; children's marriages must be decided by parents, this is common sense! The command of parents, the words of the matchmaker! Do not act on impulse!"
Looking at Feng Suzhen before him, Master Zhu stared at her coldly.
"Then if we follow common sense, I have already pledged my heart to one person, how can I have two husbands!"
Speaking to Master Zhu, Feng Suzhen retorted.
"Pledged your heart to one person? What does it matter if you like him or not? I tell you to marry, and you must marry!"
Speaking to this point, Master Zhu roared, "Three days later, marry into the Ma family, no one can stop it!"
Turning to leave, Master Zhu turned his head and said, "Lock her up for me. If anyone dares to let her out, beat them to death with sticks!"
Following the completion of Master Zhu's words, everyone present was stunned, because no one could have imagined that he would issue such an order!
And in the Zhu family, Master Zhu was undoubtedly an existence whose word was final; no one could stop his decision!
Locked in the room, Feng Suzhen couldn't help but have tears streaming down her face.
Because she clearly liked Li Zhaoting, why couldn't her father let the two of them be together as they wished!
Arriving in the room, her mother looked at Feng Suzhen, her eyes flashing with regret as she said, "Feng Suzhen!"
"Mother, why, why must Father make me marry into the Ma family!"
Crying while hugging her mother, Feng Suzhen couldn't help but feel sad.
But looking at Feng Suzhen before her, her mother also comforted her, "Your father doing this is for the sake of the entire family. If you don't marry, the Zhu family will be hard to preserve, and your brother's life will not be guaranteed either!"
Looking at Feng Suzhen, her mother could only say this sentence bitterly.
Because she herself had wanted to disobey her parents' orders back then, but that could only be thought about.
Bamboo doors match bamboo doors, vermilion doors match vermilion doors.
"Brother, isn't Brother missing?"
Looking at her mother, Feng Suzhen couldn't help but be stunned.
"Actually, your brother is still alive, just in the Northern Ming!"
Stroking her daughter's head, her mother continued, "We women, born, our marriages cannot be decided by ourselves. In this imperial court governed by noble families, it is even more so..."
"If it is like this, then you let Li Zhaoting write me a letter, otherwise I will absolutely not marry!"
Turning around with tears streaming down her face, Feng Suzhen couldn't help but cry.
And hearing her daughter say this, her mother also couldn't help but feel regret.
Inside the Zhu family, Deng Qiang looked at Master Zhu before him and couldn't help but frown, saying, "What is your daughter trying to stir up? Does she want to drag the Zhu family to die together? Master Zhu, I'll tell you, if she doesn't marry, the Zhu family will have no peace in the future!"
"General Deng, please calm your anger. I will definitely advise my daughter well, and there will definitely be no trouble on that day!"
Looking at Deng Qiang, Master Zhu finally remembered that the other party was not only a Great Ming general but also a minister of the Military Affairs Office; his aura was overwhelming!
And just then, Mistress Zhu returned and stated Feng Suzhen's condition.
Hearing this, Deng Qiang immediately stood up and said, "I will handle this matter. If it doesn't succeed, then I will kill her entire family, young and old, and see if he writes it or not!" Watching Deng Qiang say this, Mistress Zhu couldn't help but say, "This?"
"You don't need to worry. Since our Great Ming has already selected an Empress, then it cannot be tolerated that she is unwilling!"
Standing up to leave, the soldiers behind Deng Qiang also followed.
Watching this scene, Mistress Zhu couldn't help but say, "Why go to such lengths!"
"Do you think it was a coincidence that the Northern Ming could defeat the Great Jin? It is precisely because they are so brave that our Great Jin is so... unable to turn the tide!"
Sighing helplessly, Master Zhu also couldn't help but clench his fists.
For him, the lives of Li Zhaoting's family didn't count for anything at all.
As long as he could let the Zhu family become the relatives of the Emperor, no matter how many irrelevant people there were, they were nothing but ants!
The Li family, an ordinary small courtyard.
When Deng Qiang, who knocked on the door, walked in, Li Zhaoting immediately sensed something was wrong.
Because this group of people seemed like soldiers who had been through many battles.
"You are Li Zhaoting?"
Looking at the person before him, Deng Qiang couldn't help but question him.
"That's right, I am Li Zhaoting. Who are you?"
!
Looking at Deng Qiang before him, Li Zhaoting inquired.
"Who I am, you don't need to know in this life, because you can see me only because of the Emp... the Zhu family!"
Saying this, Deng Qiang threw out a stack of paper and said, "Write a farewell letter. Tell Feng Suzhen that you have feelings for someone else!"
"What? I won't write it! What happened to Feng Suzhen!"
Hearing Deng Qiang's words, Li Zhaoting hurriedly refused and couldn't help but question the other party.
But just as Li Zhaoting approached, he saw Deng Qiang lift his foot and kick him.
"Pfft!"
Flying out with blood spitting from his mouth, Li Zhaoting fell to the ground.
Looking coldly at Li Zhaoting, Deng Qiang walked up and said, "Do you think I have no way to deal with you if you don't write it? If you don't write it, I will follow your family tree and kill them one by one, letting you watch with your own eyes as the Li family is destroyed!"
Grabbing Li Zhaoting's hair, Deng Qiang said, "Although I sympathize with you, don't forget, this world is not just about love. My General fights hard in the South and North for the sake of the world! So whatever he wants, I will give him; this is our promise!"
Pulling Li Zhaoting up with a backhand, Deng Qiang looked at the servant who was somewhat fearful not far away and said, "Kill him first!"
"Yes, General!"
Hearing Deng Qiang's words, the soldier immediately drew his sword and stepped forward, his eyes full of coldness.
"You do this, are you not afraid of the law?"
Looking at Deng Qiang in anger, Li Zhaoting roared.
"The law? In this Jiangnan, whose law is it that the noble families cover the sky with one hand? Is it us?"
Looking at Li Zhaoting before him, Deng Qiang couldn't help but sneer.
And just then, the soldier who raised his sword was about to take action. Watching this scene, Li Zhaoting immediately cried bitterly, tears streaming down his face; on one side was his promise to Feng Suzhen, and on the other was his entire family, young and old, and the servant who accompanied him.
"Crying? Crying also counts as time!"
Looking at Li Zhaoting, Deng Qiang raised his arm, as if it were a sharp blade, about to slash down.
"I'll write, I'll write, isn't that enough?"
Looking at Deng Qiang, Li Zhaoting roared at the moment the sword fell.
And just then, Deng Qiang looked at Li Zhaoting and said, "In this life, you only have one chance to beg me! Cherish it well, don't waste your prime years..."
But looking at Deng Qiang, Li Zhaoting knelt on the ground in pain.
