Chapter 35: Meeting on the Street
As night fell, Zhang Kuo and Chen Xiaoping enjoyed a delicious imperial meal together.
The dining table is large and filled with a wide variety of delicacies.
Even when eating, Leng Bing still stood by Chen Xiaoping's side.
However, Zhang Kuo didn't see the princess who hated men, and heard the palace maid say that the princess wanted to eat in her bedroom.
Zhang Kuo learned that the princess was one year older than him and was named Zhang Xiaoqian.
Speaking of which, Zhang Kuo was quite happy, but he didn't expect to come to the Red Eagle Empire this time and actually recognize two relatives.
He also asked Chen Xiaoping if he had the whereabouts of his uncle Zhang Jingyuan.
Chen Xiaoping didn't know it.
Zhang Kuo wondered, one is Sister Qin Ye, the other is his uncle, why do the people around him like to play missing so much?!
The imperial meal also has a large plate of braised giant eagle meat, which Zhang Kuo has eaten once and loves it very much.
So, he feasted and ate all the meat of the eagle.
Chen Xiaoping and Leng Bing looked at it, and thought to themselves: This kid can really eat!
And Chen Xiaoping eats very slowly, and she is not afraid that the food will be cold.
Zhang Kuo was full, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and smiled at Chen Xiaoping: "Auntie, you use it slowly, I'm full." ”
Chen Xiaoping smiled and said, "It seems that you like giant eagle meat very much." ”
Zhang Kuo picked up the wine glass and took a sip of red wine, put the wine glass on the table, and replied with a smile: "I ate it once before, and it was quite good." ”
Chen Xiaoping smiled and said, "Since you like it, I will tell them to make you giant eagle meat tomorrow." ”
Zhang Kuo said: "Auntie, after you eat and run away, I have something I want to talk to you about." ”
Chen Xiaoping asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
Zhang Kuo smiled and said, "You eat first, let's talk about it later." ”
What he wanted to say was to persuade Chen Xiaoping to make a truce with all the belligerents.
Chen Xiaoping didn't ask any more questions, and continued to eat.
Zhang Kuo put his elbow on the table, supported his cheek with one hand, looked at Leng Bing, and smiled.
looked at Zhang Kuo coldly and looked at each other.
Finally waiting for Chen Xiaoping to eat enough, Zhang Kuo suddenly smiled and said, "Auntie, I have something to ask for." ”
Chen Xiaoping picked up a napkin to wipe her mouth and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhang Kuo stroked his waist and said with a smile: "My waist has been a little sore recently, I want to ask Sister Leng Bing to help me beat my waist, I don't know if it's okay?"
When Leng Bing heard this, he couldn't help blushing, and said angrily: "You ......"
She really wanted to scold Zhang Kuo and beat him up again, but Chen Xiaoping was present, so she could only endure it.
Zhang Kuo smiled coldly and looked at Leng Bing.
Chen Xiaoping smiled slightly, looked at Leng Bing, and said, "Bing'er, you can go to Kuo'er's room to help him beat his waist later." ”
Leng Bing reluctantly replied "yes", and continued to glare at Zhang Kuo angrily.
Zhang Kuo looked smug and deliberately licked his lips.
When Leng Bing saw it, he was even more angry, and he was trembling with anger!
Chen Xiaoping asked, "Kuo'er, just now you said that you had something to talk to me about, what is the matter?"
Zhang Kuo sat upright, immediately became serious, and said, "Auntie, stop fighting, please stop fighting." ”
When Chen Xiaoping heard this, she immediately lowered her face, stared at Zhang Kuo, and after a while, she asked, "Kuo'er, are you a pacifist?"
Zhang Kuo replied: "I just don't like to live in a war-torn world. Auntie, please think about it. I'm just making a suggestion......"
Leng Bing suddenly interjected: "Zhang Kuo! This kind of thing is a political matter, and you are not a minister of the Red Eagle Empire, why should you make suggestions to Your Majesty?"
Zhang Kuo was silent, staring at Chen Xiaoping, waiting for an answer.
Chen Xiaoping said: "Kuo'er, to tell you the truth, I launched a war of aggression against neighboring countries to unify the world and end the war, not because I was brutal by nature, and I went to the misery of my life......
"But you shouldn't allow the military to massacre civilians in neighboring countries," Zhang said. Aunt, I beg you to sign an armistice with all the belligerent nations. ”
Chen Xiaoping said: "Kuo'er, do you know that you have committed the 'crime of being involved in politics' of our Red Eagle Empire?"
Zhang Kuo said: "'Crimes related to politics'? I know that civilians are not allowed to talk about or interfere in government affairs. Otherwise, he will serve thirty years in prison. That's the law in your country, isn't it?"
Chen Xiaoping suddenly said sharply: "Since you know that you still dare to say it!" After speaking, Huo Ran stood up!
Zhang Kuo took a look and thought: The empress is finally angry, it seems that it is really whimsical to want the Red Eagle Empire to cease war!
Leng Bing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, put this kid in prison! ”
Chen Xiaoping didn't say a word, and glared angrily at Zhang Kuo, who was as steady as Mount Tai.
Zhang Kuo slowly stood up, stretched his waist, hugged his arms again, and said leisurely: "If you want to close it, I don't care." ”
Chen Xiaoping was silent for a while, and then asked, "Kuo'er, do you want to be an official?" ”
By this time, her tone had softened a lot.
When Zhang Kuohe Leng Bing heard this, his face was surprised.
Leng Bing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, is this kid suitable to be an official? let him clean the toilet......
When Zhang Kuo heard this, he hurriedly said, "Hey, eldest sister, don't say it so ugly, okay?"
Chen Xiaoping said: "Kuo'er, I'll make you the deputy general of the defenders, you are under the command of Tianxiao, are you happy?"
Zhang Kuo hurriedly said: "Auntie, I understand your kindness, I don't want to be a deputy general." I like to live freely now, and I don't want to work hard in officialdom. ”
Chen Xiaoping said: "Okay, whatever you want." I hope you don't talk to me about these political topics in the future, I've always been disgusted by people giving me political advice. With that, he walked briskly to the door.
Zhang Kuowei lowered his head and was silent.
Leng Bing immediately followed Chen Xiaoping, and glanced at Zhang Kuo coldly.
Zhang Kuo hurriedly shouted to Leng Bing: "Eldest sister, don't forget to go to my room and beat my waist!"
At this time, a little palace maid standing on the side stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Son, will the slave take you back to the guest room?"
Zhang Kuo looked at the cute little palace maid and nodded with a smile.
The night sky is full of moonlight and stars, and the palace courtyard is still brightly lit.
Zhang Kuo found that the number of patrolling empress guards had increased a lot, and ten people were a small team.
The guards are also five steps and one post, and ten steps and one post, which can be said to be heavily guarded.
Zhang Kuo followed behind the little palace maid and walked towards the arranged room without speed or slowness.
At this time, Zhang Kuo saw Leng Bing quickly following and walking side by side with him.
Leng Bing said directly to the little palace maid: "Sister, you go and do something else first, let me take him back to the room." ”
The little palace maid nodded, and immediately turned around and walked away quickly.
Zhang Kuo said as he walked: "Anyway, how many people are in this palace?"
He replied coldly: "There are more than 10,000 people in total." ”
When Zhang Kuo heard this, he looked at the cold side face and said in surprise: "More than 10,000 people?"
Leng Bing said: "There are more than 6,000 people in the Guards alone. Why do you ask this?"
Zhang Kuo moved his gaze forward and said, "It's nothing, I'm just curious." ”
Leng Bing said: "Don't look at the palace There are so many people, there are still often bold assassins who come to assassinate Your Majesty, and the result is that there is no return." ”
Zhang Kuo said, "If the Red Eagle Empire truces, those assassins will not come and die. ”
Leng Bing was silent for a while, but said, "I'll come into the room with you later, don't behave strangely towards me." Otherwise, I'll castrate you and make your life worse than death!"
Zhang Kuo smiled coldly and said, "Don't worry, I won't mess around with you." Oh, by the way, I don't need you to beat my waist, you can go back. ”
Leng Bing immediately stopped, glared at Zhang Kuo, and said, "You're kidding me?"
Zhang Kuo stopped, squinted at Leng Bing, and said, "I was just joking just now, you take it seriously." You haven't had dinner yet, have you? You can go back to dinner, you don't have to accompany me. I'll go back to sleep first, good night. With that, he strode to the room in front of him.
Leng Bing watched Zhang Kuo enter the room, and when he saw him close the door, he blinked, and thought: I didn't expect this kid to care about others.
For Leng Bing, this is the first time he has been cared for by a man.
Although she has a father, her father has never cared about her!
Tonight she heard a young man's words of concern, and she couldn't help but feel a little moved.
She was just about to turn around and leave, when she suddenly heard the door open again, and heard him shouting, "Sister, wait a minute!"
She turned around and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Zhang Kuo asked, "Where is the toilet?"
replied coldly: "There is no men's toilet in the palace, so you can hold it!"
When Zhang Kuo heard this, he frowned and said, "Ah! Then what should I do if I wet my pants?
Leng Bing turned around and left, and said loudly: "Go to the public toilet outside the palace to relieve yourself!"
When Zhang Kuo heard this, he was speechless.
