Ming Dynasty, New Rome, and Infinite Divine Machine

"Bitter feelings, right? What are your bitter feelings?"

"I want to live in the Ming Dynasty for a while, but the residence permit in the Ming Dynasty seems to be only for tributary countries. A Roman like me has no way to apply, so I can only come here to apply."

"Ah." Magistrate Yang nodded, "In your case, we recommend naturalization through marriage."

"Wait a minute!" Lu Huaiyang suddenly stood up from behind, "I am opposed to this marriage."

"Why?" Magistrate Yang wondered, "Is there any involvement or grudge between Lu Qianhu and these two people?"

"I, I. I don't know why I object. Anyway, you just know that I want to object. If I don't object, he won't have a job."

"Okay, the objection is valid." Magistrate Yang patted the gavel gently, "Although I don't know the reason, this is indeed a bitter feeling, a bitter feeling at the scene. But... little girl from the prison, where do you live now?"

"Live at his house." She pointed at Shangluo.

"Eh?" Magistrate Yang asked in confusion, "You live in his house, does your father know?"

"My father knew."

"Then what's the problem? Your parents have given orders and you just get married. I think it's fine. I can also get married here. We can get it stamped by turning left when we go out."

"Wait a minute! County Lord!" Lu Huaiyang stood up again, "I really have to object! I can't object if I don't!"

"Lu Qianhu, my parents have agreed. It's none of your business. Hey, this little classmate from Shangluo, please say something. Now I think this suffering is caused by you. Be brave. , who is blocking you? Just say it, this county will make the decision for you. This county probably knows who is blocking you, but that person is still one step away, and he can't stop you."

[If I guess correctly, he seems to be the one who can really be in charge of the person who 'blocked' you. 】

Chapter 702 Objection

"Classmate Shangluo?" Magistrate Yang looked at him from above.

"what?"

"Why are you dazed? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"My mind was a little down just now. What did you say?"

"I'm asking if you object to getting married to the lady next to you."

"Actually, I am." He turned his phone into silent mode. "Well, if you have to choose between objecting and not objecting, I don't object. But..."

"No buts." Magistrate Yang waved his hand, "You young people are just too shy, so let this county help you burn a stove. This... Phaethon Yulithia, this You Madam, do you object?"

"I actually don't object to it."

"Okay, okay. I did another great thing today." Yang Guolao searched for a while on the panel on his desk, pressed a red button, and the speaker that just played "Wei-wu-" started Play "Song of the Four O'clock in the Midnight":

The flowers in the spring forest are beautiful and the birds in spring are sad.

The spring breeze brings back the passion and blows my clothes into bloom

"Okay~" After playing a few words, Magistrate Yang turned off the speaker, "Just to test the sound, I can play this song. How about you two, are you two getting your certificates today or..."

Lu Huaiyang stood up immediately: "My county magistrate, my Yang Guolao!!! We can't stand this anymore! There's no way we can handle this!"

"Yang Guolao? Even if Zhang Guolao comes today, he still has to follow this principle. Marriage between a man and a woman is a natural and natural law! How can we abolish the law of nature just because of human desires?"

"Ah, wait!" Lu Huaiyang raised his hand fiercely, "Shang Buran hasn't agreed yet!"

"Who is that?"

"His father."

"..." County Magistrate Yang was stunned for a moment, "Then this really won't work. The parents' orders, the matchmaker's words. Without the consent of both parties, I can't do it here."

disappointment. Magistrate Yang's face was full of disappointment, as if he had missed the half-price eggs in the supermarket.

"Hoo" Somehow, both Shangluo and Phaethon breathed a sigh of relief at the same time - there was also some subtle, small, inexplicable and a little bit of loss.

"Wait a minute." Magistrate Yang suddenly knocked the two people out of their subtle emotions: "Otherwise, how about we compromise? Without the parents' orders, it is true that red certificates cannot be issued. However, As a compromise, I can move the household registration to your home first."

"Is this okay?" Shangluo asked in surprise, "Isn't it logical that the head of the household should make the decision?"

"This county is the parent official of Jiangning County. The county can make the decision. Although this does not require a township meeting, I still ask." He looked down:

"Do you have any objections?"

"No, no, no." Lu Huaiyang shook his head as if he was being pardoned. This is not to torture the two people above, but to torture him as the meeting continues, because he can't even make up a reason. Every question answered here is torturing his conscience and soul.

"What do you two think?"

【Very good, very good. Let’s end today’s meeting here, it’s so exciting. 】

"When did you show up? Didn't I turn off the phone?"

【I'm talking to you through the loudspeaker in this room. What on earth are you thinking? Didn't you say yourself that you still have a lot of time? 】

"Because sometimes the Taoist heart is not so firm. Ahem. But as it is now, it might as well be a compromise."

"That's not right. We were just going to get a long-term residence permit, so why is naturalization now a compromise? Hey, hey, hey, you're still...?"

"Mr. Yang, this speaker seems to make some noise occasionally. I can hear it with my ears."

"So it's still broken?" Yang Guolao easily turned the speaker's power switch to the off state.

My ears suddenly became quiet.

"So, have you thought about it? If you make a compromise like this, you will not have to extend the permission in the future. Tsk, I am no longer useful as an old man. I will only get along with each other, and I will not accomplish such good things. "

"No, no," Shangluo bowed, "Thank you so much."

"Then, Miss You, just go back and wait. The file creation and household registration creation and transfer will be completed within 5 working days. From now on, you don't have to worry about the length of stay. You can go wherever you like to eat or play. .”

"Thank you!" Phaethon stood up, and she didn't know how to thank him. Although this was not a big deal, she was still a little touched by the kindness from a stranger.

"Then can we go back now?" Shangluo asked.

"I said she could go back, but I didn't mention you. Are you going to the emperor soon? Don't leave alone. Lu Qianhu drove here and asked him to take us for a ride to save some gas money."

"Ah?" Lu Huaiyang was stunned for a moment.

"What are you doing? Didn't you drive here to load the potato seedlings? The two of us are not as valuable as the potato seedlings?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."

"Then let's go, I've put on my official uniform."

【babble! The bad old man is very bad! ] Apollonia muttered the first sentence after unblocking the mute. But Shangluo had no time to care about her - he had a heavy burden on him, and dozens of kilograms of potato seedlings blocked his view.

County Magistrate Yang was sitting in the passenger seat. Lu Huaiyang's driver's door was still open as he was moving things.

Shangluo was sitting in the back seat, also holding the door open and holding the handle. Packs of potato seedlings were brought in from outside, and he piled them next to him. Only when Shangluo and the potato seedlings were sitting next to each other did Lu Huaiyang close the door.

Shangluo had to hold the big bag next to him with his hands, otherwise he would be buried by the vegetable pole at a turn.

Walking around to the front and getting into the driver's seat, fastening his seat belt, Lu Huaiyang turned his face sideways and asked, "Sir, why did you buy so many?"

"It's not expensive. No one eats this now. They didn't even eat it when I was a kid. Think about it. Sometimes it's free of charge and comes with other dishes. Besides, how many of you eat? I just think about it. Is buying a little enough?"

"That's true."

"My son-in-law doesn't eat vegetables all day long. Please help him to persuade him. It's been years, right?"

"Yes! The father-in-law's lesson is correct. It's because we didn't do our best to persuade him. It has indeed been all these years."

"Is the vegetable that their family eats most often onions?"

"Ah, this. It seems to be true. I have never seen anything else eaten. The other one is garlic. Sometimes I add some garlic sprouts, minced garlic, etc. The third one is probably ginger. Sometimes he doesn't Be careful as you may chew it like a chicken leg."

"This is not a folk remedy. I just thought that eating some melon vines would be helpful in procreating offspring. I don't believe in strange powers, but when I have no other choice, I have to believe in it."

"But he has to eat." While muttering, Lu Huaiyang started the car.

"Then this is your fault. You hang around him all day long, why can't you persuade him more?"

Chapter 703 Compromise

"Hey, my father-in-law, he has been like this since he was a child, and there is nothing I can do to persuade him. If you want to talk about health, he said that he has taken vitamins, and all physiological indicators are very healthy. He himself is an alchemist, and his body He knows it well. If he talks about it again - he will bring out the imperial recipe from Hongwu Year and say, "Our old Zhu family has been eating this since we were Emperor Taizu Gao. What's wrong with eating more meat? Isn't this tea soup?" ?'."

"Then let's eat some melon vines as a sign of good luck. I'm also urgently ill and have to go to the doctor now. I have no other choice but to let him eat melon vines. Can you please work harder?"

"Definitely, we must work harder. If we can't chop it into pieces and put it in the lion's head, he will have to eat it."

"No, no, no. If you want to have strange power and chaos, you have to follow the logic of strange power and chaos. The melon will spread to its heirs, and it will spread. If it is chopped, it will spread. You ask him first to see if he eats it. If he doesn't eat it, , I’ll think of a way.”

"Okay, okay." Lu Huaiyang nodded, "I have nothing to do now, but I don't have the position to push. At critical times, elders like you have to take action. After all, the late emperor has told you."

"Eh." County Magistrate Yang waved his hand, "Let's not talk about the late emperor. It seems like relying on one's elders and giving in to one's old age. From the perspective of my father-in-law, I just want to hold my grandchildren, and that's enough. If I mention the late emperor, You have to press the spring again, the more you press it, the springier it will be.”

"I understand, I understand." Lu Huaiyang nodded repeatedly. He was so happy that he finally found someone reliable to help him.

"How about it?" Hearing the sound of a car stopping outside, Zhu Xianfen was ready. Seeing Lu Huaiyang going upstairs, he stood waiting at the door early in the morning.

The door opened, and Lu Huaiyang was not the only one who appeared at the door.

"Father-in-law? Why did you come with me?"

"I wanted to save some money to buy sweets for my grandson, so I hitchhiked here."

"Ah uh."

Embarrassed and speechless, Zhu Xianfen didn't know how to answer. But before he could continue to be embarrassed, Yang Guozhang took the initiative to change the topic:

"Your Majesty, how did you eat this morning?"

"Breakfast? Oh, yes, you eat very well. Did your father-in-law eat this morning?"

"Eat a can of rice pudding."

"You must pay attention to your health." Finally finding an opportunity, Zhu Xianfen stepped forward to hold his hand and rub his back, "It seems that you are thinner than before. You must be eating eight-treasure porridge. Food. How about some more at my place?"

"Hey, this doesn't work." Yang Guozhang shook his head, "I met a Taoist priest that day. The Taoist priest said that I want to fast."

"What are you fasting for? Is it because..."

"No reason. It's just for good health. I thought, if I live for another 10 years, I'll be able to see my shadow."

"No, no, no, you can't be so fast. You have to eat more meat to stay healthy."

"That won't work." Yang Guozhang pulled away his sleeves, "Whatever the Taoist priest says, I have to do, otherwise it won't be effective."

"Then you should at least have a balanced mix of meat and vegetables! Can't you eat half meat? Then you can be healthy."

"Yo~~" Yang Guozhang looked over, "Your Majesty, you are right! A balanced mix of meat and vegetables is healthy, right?"

"Ah this." Zhu Xianfen was stunned, "I'm talking about you. I'm talking about you..."

Outside the door, Apollonia broadcast the sounds from inside in real time.

[Alas, poor 'good son-in-law,' being played around by his father-in-law—and I told you, this old man is very evil. From the moment he saw us and ate eight-treasure porridge this morning, he might have been planning how to torture his son-in-law.]

"Then, do we want to go in?"

[Save him. He is going to be down. 】

"Ahem!" Shangluo knocked on the door outside, "Senior brother! Come and help me! I'm carrying the vegetables upstairs!"

"Hey! It's coming, it's coming!"

Zhu Xianfen's response came from inside, as if he had been granted amnesty. The door opened from the inside, Zhu Xianfen grabbed Shangluo's free hand, shook it violently, and squeezed out the words through his teeth: "Double torture makes me go crazy. I won't thank you for your kindness." "

He took the bag of vegetables from Shangluo and put it next to the door without caring what it was. He looked at the clock outside:

"Hey, it's getting late. There are big things today. I'll take Shangluo to change clothes first."

Dragging Shangluo, he rushed out of the door, leaving the two people behind.

"Huh!" In the locker room, Zhu Xianxin finally breathed a sigh of relief, "You don't know, my father-in-law really...can't afford to offend him. He is so nice that I can't refuse him at all."

[Tsk, that old man is very bad. 】

"Uh," Shangluo asked, "Will the abbot also want to go today?"

"Of course the abbot is going. Because His Excellency Agathocles is also coming - an impromptu arrival. He is an elder, and it is not appropriate to send someone casually. So I had to choose the abbot to go, because he has been here several times before. The abbot will go and greet you."

"Eh? Why does he want to come? Didn't he say he couldn't come?"

"I don't know either." Zhu Xianfen shook his head, "Thinking about it this way, it seems that it was after meeting you that day that he suddenly asked to come to our place. Maybe it really has something to do with you."
