Now, in Lagasi's house, there was an endless stream of people who took the initiative to introduce him.
They talked around Lagasi regardless of morning or evening.
Even if Lagasi kicked out guests, they would still invite famous lobbyists to his house to lobby.
Cheng Qianxun walked to the city gate to inspect the newly opened market in front of the city.
There were so many merchants coming to play that they had to use an open space outside the city gate as a market.
From now on, the city would be a place to rest and complete transactions and notarize them.
"Queen, Queen" Lagasi chased next to her.
But before he got close, he was stopped by the guards on the left and right.
"Lagasi, good brother.
You are now prosperous, and the Queen still has something to do.
You should go back and get married before coming back."
Several guards blocked Lagasi, refusing to let him get close.
Cheng Qianxun sat in front of the palace and temple and was in charge.
Anyone who had any questions could come forward and ask.
She rolled her eyes when she saw Lagasi walking over.
Lagashi stood in front of him and bowed.
Before he could speak, Cheng Qianxun stood up and said, "I have a temporary order now."
She raised her head slightly, without even looking at Lagashi, and announced directly: "Because the population of Ekash is too small, from today on, everyone over the age of eighteen must get married.
If not, they will be exiled, or Direct marriage in the temple” Laws have been enacted, and the reasons are just and fair.
To increase the population, Lagasi was speechless for a moment, stamped his feet, and turned around to leave.
Two days later, Cheng Qianxun asked someone to call Lagasi.
She leaned on the cushion and asked lazily: "Three days are up, have you decided on the right candidate?"
Lagashi's original joy suddenly turned into frustration.
He sat there on his knees with his head lowered: "Why does the Queen insist on me getting married?"
She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and softened her voice: "Because I don't want to see you being delayed.
Animals will try hard to find females every season, because they know that after this season, they don't know whether they will survive to the next season. .
So you have to leave something behind before you die.
Why don’t you understand this?”
Cheng Qianxun sat up and pushed a plate of angustifolia in front of Lagasi.
After watching Lagasi pick up a pill and stuff it into her mouth silently, she began to persuade: "You are not young anymore.
In the past, it was because your official position was low and you didn't have enough money.
There were few people to help you propose marriage.
Now you are already an assistant.
Minister, your salary is enough to support a large family.
I will pay for the betrothal gift.
Why are you so stubborn?"
But Lagashi just didn't speak.
As a minister, he could only execute orders.
There is no way or power to refute.
"The Queen" has a guard coming in to send a message: "King Erica has sent someone."
"Please come in."
She straightened up and sat down.
Erica's messenger came in, bringing the gift that Regal wanted to deliver.
A small golden donkey made of gold was carried in by eight strong men, with eyes inlaid with gems.
The messenger looked at the clay tablet and said loudly: "The queen killed a donkey to entertain me, and now she will repay me with a golden donkey.

I hope the queen will accept it."
"It's really a big deal."
Cheng Qianxun stood up, walked to the golden donkey, and touched it with his hand.
After all, gold is better, golden.
The portion is generous.
He smiled and said, "I like it, I'll take it."
He walked back to the mat and turned around, but he hadn't sat down yet.
He saw the messenger's eyes staring at Lagashi who was sitting next to him.
Cheng Qianxun sat down, looked back and forth a few times, and seemed to understand something, so he asked: "Why do you always look at my minister?
Is there anything wrong with him?"
After thinking for a while, the envoy smiled and said: "I heard that Lagasi is a minister that the Queen values highly.
I came here three times.
Every time I saw him sitting next to the Queen."
It's not stated explicitly, but the meaning is obvious.
She sneered.
He said tepidly: "It's because I think highly of him.
I have made him an assistant minister.
He has been promoted several levels in just one month, which is enough to prove his importance by my side."
The messenger laughed twice meaningfully: "Yes, yes."
Cheng Qianxun tilted his head slightly: "As long as I trust someone, he will naturally be promoted.
Not only must he be promoted, but he must also have everything in place.
Just these days, I asked him to choose a suitable girl to get married.
I heard that Erica's woman If she is strong and beautiful, let King Erica recommend a few and let him choose.
As long as the woman is good, it doesn’t matter which country she is from.”
As soon as he heard that he was going to help Lagasi choose a wife, the envoy was startled and reacted quickly.
He immediately smiled and said: "The women in Ekash are special.
I am afraid that the women here will not be favored by Mr.
Lagasi.
I will go back Just tell Wang and see if there is anything suitable.”
"Well, okay."
Cheng Qianxun raised his head and pointed at the box carried by the guard next to him: "It just so happens that the newly collected taxes are going to King Erica.
Since you are here, then take it along the way.
Say hello to your king for me.”
After the messenger left, Cheng Qianxun looked at Lagasi, who kept his head lowered in thought.
Needless to say, this is obvious.
She is a queen, not a king.
Moreover, she is currently in the sensitive period of recruiting a bride.
With a young, unmarried male minister by her side all the time, she will be somewhat suspicious of others.
If he hadn't just said that he wanted to find a wife for Lagasi, the envoy would have inevitably said it when he returned.
Even if he didn't make a fuss, King Erica would feel uncomfortable in her heart after hearing this.
Cheng Qianxun said softly: "I don't want to marry anyone, but I have to do it.
Sometimes people have to do things they don't want to do, just to make other people live better.
Maybe the things they don't want to do are actually done. , not only is it not as bad as imagined, but it may also be good, so Lagasi, go back and think about it. " Lagasi lowered his head and said softly: "I understand, please excuse me."
Cheng Qianxun nodded and watched Lagasi go out with a smile.
She lay down and let out a long breath.

I hope Lagasi can look back and live a normal life after getting married.
She is an undead and will disappear after completing the task in another month and a half.
She should not be a drag on anyone anymore.
His fingers unknowingly pinched the pendant around his neck again, and the peace in his heart rippled slightly again.
"Julian."
She said softly, just like when she touched the pendant when Pluto was watching beside her.
Following the disappeared man's whisper, sadness inevitably rippled out: "Can you still hear me?
How are you doing?
I don't know if you regret it...
You are so stupid, so stupid."
Closing his eyes and holding the pendant tightly in his hand, Julian's slender figure seemed to emerge from his deep memories, and his gentle and handsome face was as gentle as before, smiling gently.
There was a slight twinge in my heart, like a needle hooking a small piece of flesh on the edge of my heart and pulling gently.
If Julian hadn't loved her so deeply, she wouldn't be alive now.
This was the first time she held the pendant without speaking to Hades.
This was the first and perhaps the last time.
"Queen" A maid ran in, and there was news: "Lord Ragassi has been chosen."
"Really?"
Cheng Qianxun sat up.
It had only been less than ten minutes, but he had made a decision so quickly: "Which company have you decided on?"
The maid replied: "As soon as Ragassi came out of the palace, he was surrounded by a group of matchmakers.
He pointed casually and said that the person you introduced was the one, and that was how he was selected."
"Nonsense."
Cheng Qianxun smacked the ground with his hands, and was so angry that he was shaking all over: "Call the person he chose over and let me take a look.
Tell him, if I am not satisfied with the person he chooses, I will Come and decide” Looking at the young girl kneeling in front of her, she looked up a few times and felt that she was quite beautiful and should be a good match for Ragassi.
Cheng Qianxun was relieved.
Moreover, the girl's father who accompanied him was also a minister in the court.
Of course Lagashi was not worthy of this family's family status before, but it was different now.
This kid is really lucky.
He can point at any one with his eyes closed, and it's pretty good.
He wasn't afraid to point out the finance minister's niece who was as fat as Concubine Yang, or the pockmarked wealthy woman who was related to the former king.
She softened her voice a lot: "How old are you?"
The girl's voice sounded like a mosquito: "She is sixteen years old."
Sixteen is a good age to get married in this era.
She is not bad looking, and her family should be looking for a good home for her.
Cheng Qianxun asked a few more questions, and the girl answered them one by one.
Although her childishness remained, her answers were consistent, unlike some girls who would kneel down and tremble when meeting officials and ministers, and they would stutter their answers.
If you are too honest, wouldn't you be unpopular with Lagasi even more?
It's not bad.
You should be able to slowly persuade him to return to Lagasi in the future.
Cheng Qianxun finally felt relieved and said to the girl's father: "Fifty sheep, ten cows, two hundred silver coins, and twenty whole pieces of cloth.
I don't know if these can be used as betrothal gifts."
The betrothal gift for doing business was only ten or twenty sheep, so much was given at once, as well as two hundred silver coins, which was so rich that it made people's hearts tremble.
Besides, it was the Queen who was paying the bride price.
The minister hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you Queen for the marriage."
"Well, the betrothal gift will be brought to your house in the afternoon, and the marriage will be completed immediately when the high priest arranges a good day."

Cheng Qianxun made the decision, and did not forget to tell him: "Lagasi has no parents or brothers.
From now on, your daughter will marry He will not endure hardship.
You should also treat him as a son.
He is young and does not know about marriage, so you should be more considerate. " The minister quickly agreed: "Since the queen has said so, all the rest will be arranged by my family, and Mr.
Lagasi will just get married when the time comes."
"Yes."
She smiled and nodded: "If there is something for the man to do, you don't have to be embarrassed.
Just come to me and I will ask someone to do it."
Of course the minister was happy, so he took his daughter and left.
As soon as the girl left, Cheng Qianxun said to the maid: "I should give the offerings to the gods, and ask the person who sent them to tell the high priest that the good days will come sooner rather than later, and we will see them in three days, or at most five days."
If she dares to delay it for a month or half a month, she will go to the temple to spend the night and let the fat-minded high priest pray again.
This time, she will make him stand all night.
Of course the high priest is not stupid.
When the bride's family went to pick a good day, he insisted that the good day would be in two days.
And if this time is missed, the two of them may have to wait a long time
