Chapter 031: Suspicion of a thousand
After half a pillar of incense, Xie Zhuo, Xie Fuya, Cheng Song and others stood at the north gate of the capital.
Cheng Song glanced at Xie Zhuo, "Brother Xie, have you thought it through, do you really want to use the lion skull in the mansion as a bet?"
"When...... Of course!" Xie Zhuo stiffened his neck in response, in fact, his heart couldn't stop dripping blood!
At that time, Dawan paid tribute to Dawei ten thousand-mile horses, Emperor Xuanwen rewarded the prince with two, and the rest was filled with royal horse gardens. The prince used the two lion skulls to match the royal horse, and gave birth to several good foals, and Xie Zuo gave his nephew a foal on his seventeenth birthday. Although it is not a real Dawan famous horse, it is also more toned and has good endurance than ordinary horses.
Xie Fuya said that when she made a bet on the lion's skull, Xie Zhuo almost choked to death with tea! After coughing earth-shatteringly, her sister and Cheng Song had already high-fived and decided everything!
Cheng Song smiled, and then looked at Xie Fuya who was standing next to Xie Zhuo, "Hasn't Grandma Cai Er thought about what she wants Cheng to do?"
Xie Zuo made a bet on the lion's skull, and Cheng Song bet on satisfying Xie Zuo's requirement that "he would not die and would not violate his moral conscience". Speaking of which, Cheng Song's bet was a bit big, but when Xie Fuya brought it up, he didn't hesitate to make it.
Xie Fuya hated Cheng Song's deliberate name for herself - "Second Grandma Cai", and when she heard him point to herself again, she said angrily: "Isn't it that Cheng Shizi has no confidence in winning?"
Cheng Song chuckled, "It's not my character to admit defeat if I don't compare, I'm just curious." ”
Xie Fuya snorted coldly and glanced at Cheng Song.
Because the proposed gambling game was a bit sudden, Cheng Song's little guy Jixiang was just an ordinary subordinate, not a person who could run. Xie Fuya didn't take advantage of Cheng Song, so he asked him to summon another guy who could run to compete.
Cheng Song was not polite, and asked him to call someone after a few words of auspiciousness, and then drank tea with the Xie brothers and sisters for a while, feeling that the hour was almost over and came to the North City Gate.
After waiting for a while, Ji Xiang panted and brought back a black, thin, blue-gray short-dressed, sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.
After Xie Fuya looked at the "subordinate" found by Cheng Song's little servant, she scolded Cheng Song in her heart!
This young man's eyes are shining, and although his body is dark and thin, he walks with an abnormal body! At first glance, he is a practicing family! Cheng Song, this short-lived ghost, could it be that he asked the little guy to go to the barracks to find a little soldier to come over?
"The little one has seen the prince. The thin black boy bowed his hand to Cheng Song.
"Well, run well for a while, don't embarrass you!" Cheng Song raised his hand and patted the young man's shoulder.
Xie Zuo turned his head to look at his sister, and Xie Fuya also patted Luo Changshou's shoulder, "Just do your best." ”
Luo Changshou nodded, "The little one knows." ”
After telling the little guys, Xie Fuya prepared to get into the carriage and go to the south gate to wait for the competitors.
This competition is two small guys starting from the East City Gate, no restriction on the route, as long as they pass through a necessary point, the first to reach the South City Gate wins! That is to say, if you are familiar with the connection of the streets and alleys in Beijing, even taking a shortcut is not a foul!
"Second Grandma Cai is fair!" Cheng Song shouted.
Short-lived ghost! Xie Fuya said in her heart.
The carriage started slowly and headed towards the south gate.
According to the agreement, after a quarter of an hour, the two boys can start the game.
Compared with Xie Zhuo's anxiety, Cheng Song whispered and laughed with the "subordinate" who participated in the competition as if he didn't take it seriously at all.
"Uncle just rest assured, I believe that our grandmother's arrangement is. Luo Changshou leaned over to Xie Zhuo's side and whispered.
Xie Zhuo turned his head and glanced at "Luo Changshou", feeling that this kid was talking a little weird, but his brain was too chaotic for a while to tell what was strange.
A quarter of an hour later, the little maid Jixiang issued an order for the two masters, and the black thin boy and Luo Changshou rushed out like arrows!
"Let's go, let's go to the South City Gate too!" Cheng Song waved his arm and walked to another carriage parked on the side.
Xie Zhuo was still uneasy, but Da Yang reminded him before he reluctantly walked to the carriage.
Cheng Song got into the carriage first, and pulled the curtain of the carriage to call Xie Zhuo to hurry up.
Who wants to share a carriage with you! Xie Zhuo secretly scolded himself.
Cheng Song and Xie Zhuo rode in the same carriage, and the little servants all followed under the carriage, but the speed was not fast.
**
Cai Chengshan was forced by the second wife to come to Xie Fuma's Mansion to pick up Xie Fuya and return to Chengyibo's Mansion, but was told by the porter of the Fuma Mansion: The aunt and uncle went out and were not in the mansion.
Uncle Xie is a gentleman who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, and he is idle all day long, what are brothers and sisters going to do when they go out together?
"Uncle, the little one is going to report to the princess that you are here. After the porter answered Cai Chengshan's words, he turned around and went to report inside.
"No need!" Cai Chengshan said in a not very good tone, "I still have something to do, so I won't go in to meet the princess and the concubine." Please inform the princess and the colt, I will come back tomorrow at this time to pick up the Xie family. Farewell!"
After speaking, Cai Chengshan flicked his sleeves and turned around and got into his carriage.
"Hey, this Aunt Cai, the shelf is really not small!" The porter looked at the carriage of Cai's mansion and pouted.
The princess and the concubine are Cai Chengshan's mother-in-law and father-in-law, and not only did he use the most alienated title, but he even passed through the door without entering to greet him!
Cai Chengshan thought that he didn't receive anyone, and he would definitely be reprimanded by the second wife when he returned home, so he was a little reluctant to go home. When the carriage street reached Suzaku Street, he asked the coachman to drive back to Bofu first, and he himself walked around the street for a while before going back.
Walking on the street, Cai Chengshan's footsteps involuntarily went to the south city gate, just because Tongkuaner Lane was in that direction, and his powder-headed sister Li lived in the courtyard over there.
"I heard that the prince of Lu Guogong lost a bet with the son of Princess Anyang, and now he is theorizing at the South City Gate. Some of the people passing by in the street whispered.
"If you lose a bet, you lose, what's the theory?"
"The prince of Lu Guogong suspects that Uncle Xie is out of a thousand. ”
Cai Chengshan, the son of Princess Anyang, could it be his uncle, frowned, temporarily dispelled the idea of going to Tongquan'er Hutong, and went straight to the south city gate.
On one side of the south gate, there were a few people standing under the city wall, and some people who were watching the excitement were sparsely surrounding them and pointing.
Cai Chengshan slowed down and got closer, stretched his neck to look in, and saw his uncle Xie Zuo and a beautiful woman in red...... Take a closer look, isn't the beauty in red his wife Xie Fuya!
After seeing Xie Fuya's outfit clearly, Cai Chengshan's heart burst into flames! What a woman who does not abide by women's morals and morals! A married woman in an inner house actually dressed up like this and showed her head outside, it was really a shame in the face of Yibofu!
Luo Changshou arrived at the South City Gate more than ten steps earlier than Cheng Song's people and touched the carriage of the Horse Mansion, but Cheng Song lost.
When Xie Zhuo and Cheng Song arrived in the carriage, the game had already finished half a cup of tea, and the black and thin boy stood beside the carriage with his arms crossed with an unconvinced face, and when he saw Cheng Song jumping off the carriage, he strode up to meet him!
