Chapter 9: The King of Chu Arrives

The sky at the time of Mao is still pitch black, but in the Yuanbao Hall, it is brightly lit, lively, up and down, jubilant, as if there is a great happy event, about to come to the He family.

For them, the arrival of the King of Chu is indeed a great joy.

He Tiantian looked at the red lantern under the eaves, was stunned for a moment, and walked into the hall.

Everyone had arrived, and Bai sat at the top; He Juxin was next to her, pacing around excitedly and nervously; Aunt Qin stood behind the Bai family, looking a little depressed, because she was just a concubine and was not qualified to see the King of Chu.

Her two younger sisters, the second Miss He Jingjing, and the third Miss He Shanshan, one is dressed plainly and elegantly, and the other is dressed brightly, sitting side by side on the chair at the bottom, no matter from which angle, they are a pair of beauties.

When He Juxin saw He Tiantian coming in, he only felt that her head was full of jewelry, which was very dazzling, and the dress on her body was also like a costume, but after all, this body was also carefully dressed up at a glance, so he didn't say anything.

He Shanshan looked He Tiantian up and down, leaned over to He Jingjing's side, covered her mouth and smiled: "Second sister, you see that the eldest sister is dressing, just like singing, it's strange that the King of Chu will take a fancy to her!" ”

Idiot! People just don't want to be favored by the King of Chu! Talking to her simply lowers her IQ! He Jingjing had a calm face, but she didn't hear it, and she didn't care about her words at all, He Shanshan had to sit back in a daze.

"Tian Tian is here? Come and sit down, we're waiting for you. Bai Shi saw that He Tiantian really wore the nouveau riche clothes she sent, and even wore jewelry, and she was in a very happy mood, but even so, she didn't forget to give He Juxin eye medicine, and pointed out lightly, He Tiantian was the last one to arrive, so everyone was waiting for her.

It's just a pity that He Juxin's mind has always been only spent on how to make money, and he can't understand such an obscure small report, so he doesn't react at all.

He Tiantian stepped forward and saluted and sat down on the chair left for her.

He Juxin stopped pacing, slowly looked around the hall, his eyes swept over the faces of his three daughters one by one, and said extremely sternly: "In another hour, the King of Chu will arrive, you all cheer me up and show your housekeeping skills!" You probably don't know that although the King of Chu built the palace in our house, it is not only our family who will take over later! People with a little bit of identity in Yiling will appear in front of the King of Chu, their sons and daughters, all of them look like Peugeot, you must not think that you can take it lightly if you take advantage of the location! ”

So much competition? When He Jingjing and He Shanshan heard this, their faces changed a little.

He Tiantian is happy, the more people, the greater the chance of her losing the election! However, what did her father say just now? The "sons and daughters" of their family? He actually didn't shy away from mentioning someone else's son? Tut-tut, it seems that the King of Chu is really both men and women, and he is not taboo, such a person, how far she must go, how far she must hide, and never provoke!

Time was pressing, He Juxin didn't say much, and quickly asked them to get up and go to the East Cross Courtyard together - since it was a palace, it was natural to open another gate, and the King of Chu would come in directly through that door later, instead of detouring to the front yard of the He family.

Last night, the advance officer of the king of Chu, accompanied by the personnel of the government, demarcated the position to welcome the king of Chu, and detailed it to every household, so as not to crowd and scramble when he got it, which made the king of Chu angry.

The best position in the first row is reserved for Dong Zhixian's family, and next to them is the He family. In fact, with the identity of any merchant, it is good to be able to take the car, and who is qualified to compete with the county, which is all convenient for the host.

He Juxin took the Bai family and his three daughters to arrive first, and after a while, others also arrived one after another.

Since the king of Chu chose the construction palace of their family across the courtyard, the He family has become the public enemy of all the Yiling people, and almost everyone is jealous of them.

He Juxin knew that their family was not welcome now, so even though it was on his own territory, he still kept a low profile, and even greeted people with a small voice.

He Tiantian was single-mindedly defeated, more low-key than He Juxin, and didn't even raise his head.

He Jingjing saw He Juxin's actions in her eyes, and she didn't dare to publicize it.

However, He Shanshan, regardless of Bai's dissuasion, either went to get close to the young lady of Dong Zhixian's family, or turned around and said a few words to the young lady of Zhang Ji Silk Village.

He Juxin is right, there are indeed a lot of people who come to pick up the driver, and they stood in half of the courtyard in the dark, among which the handsome men and women who are ready to "dedicate" to the King of Chu, not to mention hundreds, but also dozens, He Tiantian silently calculated the probability of winning the election, and smiled happily.

Time passed quickly, and gradually, I could hear the sound of music outside the courtyard, and the shrill voice of the eunuch who couldn't even hide the music.

Immediately afterwards, a sound of "King Chu has arrived" resounded across the east courtyard, and the guards of honor entered the thin fish, and the neat and uniform footsteps were like a companion army.

The cruel and ruthless "prestige" of the king of Chu has already resounded throughout Yiling, and all the people who came to take over the car, although they all had the intention of climbing and pleasing them, no one dared to look up.

Dong Zhixian took He Juxin and stepped forward to greet him, leading the King of Chu to the front of the crowd.

Those handsome men and beautiful women who were ready to "dedicate" themselves to the King of Chu finally couldn't help it, and they raised their eyes to peek, seizing the opportunity to throw a flattering eye, hoping to attract the attention of the King of Chu, leave a good impression, and be taken to the palace by him.

He Jingjing and He Shanshan, who had the advantage of geographical advantages, naturally did not let go of the opportunity, or smiled charmingly at the King of Chu, or pretended to look at him shyly, and then quickly lowered their heads, wanting to say nothing.

He Tiantian lowered his head instinctively, turned sideways slightly, followed the ground, and looked forward, only to see that in the crowd, a hem of a python robe was exposed, and under the python robe, there was a pair of black cowhide boots embroidered with silver thread, judging from the size of the boots, this person must be tall.

Who is eligible to wear a python robe among the people present at this time? That must be the king of Chu.

Should she raise her head and let the King of Chu see her "carefully" depicted makeup, so as to increase the probability of losing the election? He Tiantian was pondering, but suddenly found that the pair of silver-threaded cowhide boots were walking towards her unhurriedly, and finally stopped in front of her.

Mom, the King of Chu is standing in front of her! At this time, even if you borrow her courage, you don't dare to look up! In case the King of Chu thinks she is disrespectful, this head will be decided! He Tiantian buried his head in his shoulders and even held his breath.

Although he buried his head deeply, He Tiantian could still feel that King Chu's gaze lingered on her, looking her up and down several times!
