Chapter 33: The Prime Minister's Daughter's Counterattack Strategy (20)
The more Prime Minister He Cheng listened, the more annoyed he became, the last sentence was almost mad at him, and he rushed into the yard in a hurry, Cui Shi and He Fanghua were scared, and the two hurriedly supported each other and walked towards He Chengxiang, Cui Shi tidied up his clothes, and saluted He Cheng Xiang pretentiously, and said gently: "Master, the concubine body just asked people to invite you, and I thought you didn't want to see the concubine body!"
Looking at Cui Shi, who was like a sheep in front of him, he couldn't have imagined that he would curse his daughter like a shrew, it was really a ghost before and after a person! Thinking of everything His Royal Highness King Ning said, it seemed that there was no need to verify that it was true, but she could not be completely punished today, and there were important matters to discuss in a while, so she could only be let go for the time being.

"Honestly chanting in the ancestral hall, when will you be allowed to come out. ”
Cui Shi was frightened and hurriedly knelt down and cried and pulled Prime Minister He's robe, "Master Mingjian, the concubine has passed the one-month period of being punished. Glancing at Steward Liu, Steward Liu nodded.
With a wave of his hand, he shook off Cui's pull, and scolded sharply: "What kind of system is pulling and pulling, let the two highnesses and Gonggong An wait for you when you receive the order today, and then punish the ancestral hall to worship the Buddha for a month, and if there is no trick, you will be punished for copying the women's rules a hundred times!"
He Fanghua, who turned around and looked at He Fanghua, who was as beautiful as a water lily, said: "And you, who will you show for the flowers and branches dressed up!
The two of them trembled and knelt on the ground, "Steward Liu immediately locked up the person for me, and ordered the person to watch the person be released again, I only ask." Steward Liu said yes, and Prime Minister He threw up his sleeves and left.
The two kneeling people, you look at me, I look at you, whispered, "Your father won't overhear us talking, right?" He Fanghua shook his head, "It shouldn't be, if you hear it, you won't be punished so slightly." The two of them were a little relieved, and Steward Liu ordered someone to detain the two separately without going into details.
The sky is late, the courtyard is brightly lit, and the courtyard of the flower hall is decorated and elegant, especially in the three or five steps on both sides of the road, there is a bright lamp covered with windproof paper, which is as bright as day.
The prince has already ordered someone to pick up Yeluqi, at this time he walked through the Yongdao towards the flower hall, looking at the courtyard as bright as day, Yeluqi felt a little envious in his heart, this is just a courtyard of an official eunuch is so luxurious, the courtyard is actually lit with windproof lanterns, I don't know if it is a Hongmen banquet today, I don't want other soldiers to come to cover the water and take a look.
After meeting each other in the flower hall, the guests and hosts sat down, and the maids rushed in and poured a bowl of eight-treasure tea for each person.
Ye Lu Qi looked at the gaiwan and felt novel, and looked at it seriously, Lan Xi acted as a commentator to explain to the prince and Ye Luqi, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Yelu Prince, this is the cover of the gaiwan tea bowl is the lid to keep warm and scrape off the foam, the bottom is to prevent hot hands, and the middle is the tea bowl. Hawthorn and longan meat these six kinds of drying and mashing, with rock sugar and chrysanthemum tea brewing, sesame, can nourish hair, play an important role in enhancing memory; red dates can nourish qi and blood; for example, longan can nourish the blood, calm the nerves and nourish the heart, walnut kernels, soaked in tea to enhance memory, maintain strong energy is very beneficial; and wolfberry can dispel wind and eyes, anti-aging; rock sugar can nourish yin and lungs, moisten dryness and dissolve phlegm. Not only thirst-quenching, but also particularly delicious, sweet and fragrant. The eight ingredients are all treasures, so they are called eight treasure tea. ”
Zi Yao nodded encouragingly, raised her chin to Yeluqi and motioned for him to taste it, Yeluqi picked up the bowl and gently scraped off the foam, and tasted a mouthful of strong fragrance, the strong fragrance of dried fruits, the freshness of chrysanthemums, and the sweetness of rock sugar washed his taste buds one by one, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of emotion "Hmm~" startled himself, and hurriedly raised his eyes to observe the people present, and was a little relieved to see that everyone was paying attention to him.
Ye Luqi put down the bowl and looked at the crown prince and King Ning cautiously, "I don't know what the purpose of Prince Jiade and His Royal Highness King Ning escorted this king into Beijing today, and now they are treating Ruo Shang, this king is also a happy person, and I also ask the two highnesses to go straight to the past." ”
The prince fine-tuned the corners of his lips and took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "I don't know if it has anything to do with you when I was ambushed a few days ago?"
Yeluqi pouted, "Yes, the king's order cannot be violated, and the king will be defeated and the king will be at your disposal." ”
The prince nodded, he still admired Yeluqi's fall, and said: "Since Lone treats you like a guest, he will naturally not care about it, and besides, Lone knows that the assassination is not your intention, otherwise as soon as your wind-chasing strong bow comes out, Lone will only have to wait for death." ”
Ye Luqi frowned slightly, "Don't hide it from the two royal highnesses of the crown prince and King Ning, this king does not agree with his father's behavior, but there is no way, life is difficult to disobey!"
got up again and clasped his fist at Zi Yao and saluted, "The grace of saving my life has not been reported since yesterday, and Miss He has been frightened again, so I hope for Haihan." ”
Zi Yao glared at him, stretched out her hand and folded her fingers to settle accounts with Ye Luqi: "Ye Lu Qi, I don't care if you are the tenth prince or not, but your arithmetic is really not very good! Let me help you find out how much you owe me! The first time you saved you in Heshan Hall and owed me a life, the second time was when I was kidnapped in another courtyard and owed me a favor, and the third time was when King Ning of Yanhua Mountain wanted to kill you and I left people under the knife, how can you repay these three favors and human lives!"
King Ning glanced at the prince and smiled, thinking in his heart, don't offend a woman if you offend anyone, especially don't offend a smart woman, otherwise you will have to help count the money if you buy it!
Ye Luqi knew that Zi Yao had a plan, but as an honest man, he couldn't refuse, "Let Miss He dispose of it, this king's life is yours." ”
Zi Yao smiled charmingly, "What do I want your life to do?" I know that you are a person who stands up to the sky and the earth, and you make a promise." In this way, what should I do with three things?" Zi Yao stretched out her right palm and raised it to him.
"Okay!" Yeluqi raised her hand and high-fived him three times, without any delay.
Xiao Ningkai glanced at Zi Yao and blinked, thinking that this little fox had finally succeeded in half of his calculations.
Zi Yao said happily: "I'm so happy, I know that you are a trustworthy person, then my first request is that Dawan and Jiade will open the door to trade without war for twenty years." ”
Yeluqi was surprised: "I thought they would take this opportunity to ask for a few cities to avoid war? ”
Zi Yao saw his confusion and explained: "We know that it is difficult to directly ask you to agree, because you have no right to decide on this matter, so we have decided to support you to become the king of Dawan Kingdom." ”
Ye Luqi's face changed instantly, and he said sharply: "This king still gives his life back to Miss He, such a father-killing thing flies to me Ye Luqi so-called, forgive your fate." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
King Ning stretched out his hand to stop Ye Luqi, "Don't be in a hurry to listen to Zi Yao, okay?" Ye Luqi snorted lightly, "Do you think you can stop me?"
King Ning was angry: "Prince Yelu is so confident in his riding and archery skills! So how about we have a competition? If you lose, then listen to Yao'er's arrangement, and if I lose, I will send you away immediately." ”
"It's a deal!"
"Bow down!" At the sound of an order, a guard lifted Yeluqi's bow and arrow and King Ning's strong crossbow, swung left and right, and set up two straw red heart targets a hundred steps away.
King Ning said: "Today, I will let you understand my Jiade's true ability, come on, ten sucks, see which of you and me hit the bull's-eye arrows, how many arrows are there?"
Yeluqi nodded yes, and the prince took a few steps forward to see that the two of them were ready, and then raised his arms, "The timer begins!"
As the prince's arm fell, Yeluqi quickly sent arrows, and the arrows hit the red heart, Yeluqi was still confident in his archery, and Xiao Ningkai, the king of Ning, was slow and methodical, aiming at the red heart and firing again and again, each time three arrows and six times in a row, and the prince shouted to stop when the time came.
Immediately, an attendant brought the arrow target closer, and Ye Luqi saw that the arrow target was not enough to turn his brain for a while, what was the situation? Why did King Ning's arrow target more than three times more than the arrow above him?
Yeluqi clasped his fists and saluted, "Yeluqi admits defeat and is willing to keep his promise." ”
King Ning couldn't bear to say when he saw Yeluqi looking like he had been hit: "Prince Yelu, don't worry about your archery skills, you have reached the pinnacle, and today you are not defeated in the hands of this king, but in the strong crossbow in the hands of this king." ”
Xiao Ningkai raised the strong crossbow in his hand and said carefully: "This bow is called a strong crossbow, it can send three arrows at a time, and it can be filled six times in a row, and it has a crosshair for aiming, and women who can't shoot arrows can also wear Yang in a hundred steps, so you don't lose unjustly." ”
Ye Luqi looked at King Ning so unabashedly and asked in some surprise: "Why did King Ning tell me this secret?
King Ning shook his head and patted Yeluqi on the shoulder, and then said, "To tell you is to treat you as a friend, there is no humiliation today, just to meet sincerely." ”
Xiao Ningkai saw Ziyao rubbing his little belly, and knew that he must be hungry, so he immediately said, "Prince Yelu, let's talk while eating! Yao'er is hungry." ”
The prince covered his nose and snickered, double-clapped his palms to call the attendants to start the banquet, Zi Yao's eyes were round and staring at the people serving the food, and the banquet was set up, and the prince hurriedly invited a few people to sit down at the round table.
The prince raised his glass, "Prince Yelu, I hope that our two countries will be mutually beneficial and reciprocal from today and will no longer meet each other, please!"
Xiao Ningkai seemed to be used to it, and sandwiched the dishes that Zi Yao liked one by one, and after a while, Zi Yao's plate was full, Zi Yao was slightly embarrassed, raised her foot and kicked King Ning, but she kicked the prince, her face was even redder with shame, and the prince did not expose it and only greeted Ye Luqi to eat, and when he saw that the host and guest had already moved his chopsticks, he silently buried his head in eating, elegant and fast, and after a while, the dishes on the plate were wiped out.
Since seeing the strong crossbow Yeluqi's good impression of King Ning has been greatly improved, pulling him to talk in detail, Zi Yao's favorite dishes are far away, and getting up to take food is unsightly, helplessly biting chopsticks when the prince took a plate and sent it to Zi Yao, signaling her to eat well, Zi Yao was a little flattered, and wanted to get up and embarrassed, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, raised his right hand and stretched out his index finger and middle finger on the table to kneel in front of the prince, King Ning had already swept the situation here, took Zi Yao's hand and said to her and the prince: "Yao'er, don't be polite, the prince is his own brother." ”
Xiao Ningkai's words made the prince's heart warm, his own brother, how long has he never thought of words? I didn't expect the second brother to trust him so much.
Yeluqi said enviously: "The relationship between the two highnesses is really envious of others, and the brothers can be so good. ”
