Chapter Ninety-Five: Ask Her
At the beginning of May, the weather in Beijing was already hot.
Originally, it was not yet a hotter season, but a basin of ice was also placed in the Gao family's study, adding a bit of coolness and humidity to the air, making Gao Lingbo, who had just washed off his tiredness, even more comfortable.
However, the body is comfortable, but the heart is anxious and angry.
"Confused! How can you let Cheng Er go away! He raised an eyebrow and shouted.
"My lord, I can't let you go." Several subordinates said in a sneer.
"It was Chen Shao's approval, he has always been against his father, and he didn't want this Cheng Dong to enter Beijing, so he wanted to drive Cheng Dong out for a long time." Gao Xiaoguan said with a grin on the side.
"There are so many people he wants to drive, can he drive them away? What do you want you to do? Gao Lingbo raised his eyebrows and said.
"It's really hard to stop, but it just so happens that like adults, they all reported their mother's critical illness...."A subordinate said, "If we want to stop him, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for Chen Shao to find a handle." ”
"Embarrassing me? If he embarrasses me, I will think of ways to deal with him, and the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth. Gao Lingbo sneered, "You are looking forward and backward like this, in the final analysis, you don't take this Cheng Dong seriously." ”
"Father, what if he leaves, it's not difficult for us to go to Jiangzhou, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape." Gao Xiaoguan said.
The existence of Master Cheng Er is not just the fate of a parent.
"You only have family affairs in your eyes, and family affairs are a big deal!" Gao Lingbo said angrily, shaking his head.
That woman, how could she be as dedicated to marriage as other women, if she really cares about marriage, how can there be that rule of not marrying the healer.
Never mind. I knew it if I didn't do it myself. There will always be things that go wrong. Things are completely different from what I expected, so let's deal with things in front of you.
"Come on, send my post to Mrs. Cheng, I will come to visit." He said.
"Father, are you going to see the woman in person?" Gao Xiaoguan asked, with a look of disdain, "She is also worthy..."
"Better than you." Gao Lingbo said angrily and threw the post out.
The high-ranking officials shrank their heads and did not dare to speak again. watched the little guy walk out with the post.
The news of Gao Lingbo's arrival in Beijing was naturally known to those who should know, and his family's little maid went out to Cheng Jiao's mother's house was also seen by the eyeliner of all parties.
"Master Gao is better than his son." Old Lady Chen said with a smile.
"So what, she didn't want to marry him!" Chen Shao said.
Old Lady Chen couldn't hold back her laughter.
"Hugh's nonsense." He hurriedly retracted his laughter and reprimanded.
Chen Shao apologized to his father and reached out to touch his beard.
"It's already like this, the high and junior officials are obviously deliberately retaliating, such a marriage, even if Gao Lingbo is thoughtful, he can be thoughtful for a while, can he still be thoughtful for a lifetime? How can you get by this day? She is not a fool, how could she really marry this family because of Gao Lingbo's few words. He said.
Old Lady Chen shook her fan and smiled.
"Other women, maybe not." "But if it's her." How to live life doesn't seem to be a big problem...."
It's impossible to say what this woman is doing.
"I can't figure it out. Can't figure it out. Old lady Chen shook her fan and said.
At the same time, Qin Arc also put down the tea bowl in his hand.
"That's right, this woman has always acted out of common sense." He said to himself, "It's not impossible for Master Gao to convince her. ”
If you are convinced, then you will really get married.
Married...
Qin Arc stood up, grabbed his robe, put it on and walked out quickly.
"Thirteen."
Madame Qin's voice sounded behind her.
Qin Arc stood on his feet and turned his head to call out to his mother.
"I'm going out, in a hurry." He said.
"Come here, I have something to ask you." Mrs. Qin beckoned and said with a smile.
Qin Arc had to turn around and come over.
"What does Mother want to ask?" He asked.
"Where are you going?" Mrs. Qin said with a smile.
Qin Arc shouted to his mother helplessly.
"Go where you want to go." He said, turning around and scurrying away.
"Do you want to see the person you want to meet?" Mrs. Qin said with a smile behind her, and followed a few steps, "Thirteen, you can't just think about it, you have to say, this is a good opportunity." ”
Qin Arc didn't know if he heard it, and he led the horse and went straight away.
"What are you messing with him?" Qin Shiyan walked out from the inside and said, "Thirteen has grown up, and they are all officials, don't always tease him." ”
Madame Qin shook her fan and smiled.
"It's big, it's really big, I can't even get a crush on someone." She smiled, and looked at Qin Shi with a fan half-covering her face, "This is really not like his father at all." ”
Qin Shi said that he was teased by his wife, and suddenly hummed with a straight face and pretended to be annoyed, and the servants around him chuckled sideways, but they didn't hear it.
The husband and wife laughed and walked out for a moment, and someone here came to report that Zhou Ji was coming.
"Liulang, thirteen, he just went out in a hurry." Mrs. Qin smiled, looked at the young man in front of her, and added, "I don't know where I went, since I became a Jinshi and became an official, there are more entertainments." ”
Zhou Zhen responded yes.
"Naturally, it can't be the same as before, and it was the same when I was in the army." He said, bowing and leaving.
Looking at Zhou Zhen who was riding away, Qin Shijiao frowned.
"What are you lying to him for?" He asked.
"You know what." Mrs. Qin said, "You must know that the boy of the Zhou family can probably hold a beauty, if that's the case, what should our family thirteen do?" ”
Qin Shijiao shook his head with a little disapproval.
"Relatives and villains are artificial." He said.
"This kind of marriage of children can not be a husband, it is unfair." Mrs. Qin smiled, "Look at the will of heaven." ”
Qin Shi laughed.
"You're providential?" He asked.
You're obviously deliberately artificial.
Madam Qin raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"When he met me, it was providence." She said.
………………………………………………
Zhou Ji turned home sullenly, and Master Cheng and Second Master Cheng fled in a panic and left Beijing. It seems to have taken away the liveliness of this section of the capital. Now the streets are talking about being alone and entering the cottage at night. The king of Jin'an County, who was frightened by the divine light, and the marriage entanglement between the children of the high-ranking officials and the Cheng family, no one said about it.
This is the capital, the capital where new things are endless, and the capital that can be fleeting no matter how lively and noisy it is.
"Father." Zhou Zhen shouted, looking at Master Zhou, who was sitting in the hall eating tea and listening to the little maid singing, "What should I do about that?" ”
"What's that?" Master Zhou asked lazily.
"Jiao Niang's family affairs." Zhou Zhen said in a sullen voice.
"Oh, there's no need to worry, Jiao Jiao'er has her own ideas. We will do what she tells us to do. Master Zhou smiled, and while his hand was on his knee, he beat the beat and the little maid's singing.
Zhou Zhen wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.
"That, that, I'll have to ask." He said.
"What is there to ask, isn't it dragging it out now." Master Zhou said, "It's good to drag." ”
Father actually put it bluntly, he was still afraid.
After the analysis of the eldest lord about King Ping, thinking of the situation that the Zhou family would face if he really married, the old man Zhou still retreated, not to mention that Cheng Jianniang did not have to be their Zhou family.
It's good to drag...
Zhou Zhen sighed in his heart.
How can it be good to drag! This kind of thing has to be a quick mess!
You don't ask. I'll ask.
Zhou Zheng took a deep breath, Shi Li got up and walked out.
Right. I'm going to ask, help her, what's the wrong thing to ask!
The thought became more and more firm, and Zhou Zhen's footsteps couldn't help but speed up.
I went to ask her, asked her.
When Zhou Zhen went out, Qin Arc had already eaten a cup of tea brought by Banqin.
In summer, the hall is open and replaced with a screen window, reflecting the green bamboo and red flowers outside the window, and the birds feeding under the porch chirp.
"Although this matter is a solution, it cannot solve the root cause." Qin Arc said.
"Not necessarily." Cheng Jianniang replied.
Qin Arc smiled and took a bite of the tea bowl again.
"Actually, I should have persuaded you to marry Liulang." He said suddenly.
Cheng Jianniang raised her eyes to look at him, and Banqin, who was sitting on the side and lightly fanned, also looked over.
"But I can't say anything." Qin Arc smiled and said, "Because I think that this time it may be true, you will really get married." ”
"What's so fake about getting married?" Cheng Jianniang shook her head and said.
Qin Arc smiled and replied.
"Yes, marriage is not child's play." "But I always wanted to see it as child's play." ”
Banqin looked at him even more puzzled.
"Because... In that case, your rules will be child's play. Qin Arc smiled and looked at Cheng Jianniang.
What rules? Banqin didn't react for a while, and Qin Arc here didn't seem to allow them to think too much and continued to speak.
"Cheng Niangzi, at this time, it is better to change the rules, because the people involved are high and powerful, and it is not the most suitable and best for the Zhou family to marry you, but my family can, my Qin family can take this matter through and do not need to harm themselves."
He said in one breath, looking at the woman sitting in front of him.
"It's better for me to come forward this time."
"What's the face?" Cheng Jianniang asked.
Qin Arc, who asked this, was stunned, and laughed a little, didn't he understand? How is that possible, well, let's make it clearer.
"You have a life-saving grace for me, you marry my family, this is a reasonable story, even if the Queen Mother Ping doesn't like it, in the end it can't be unreasonable, not to mention my Qin clan..."
Before she finished speaking, Cheng Jianniang shook her head, although she didn't interrupt out loud, but Qin Arc stopped talking by herself.
"It's for this." Cheng Jianniang said at this time, smiling and saluting, "Lang Jun don't bother, you really don't have to worry about this matter." ”
Or is it like this ....
Qin Arc looked at her.
This woman sat in front of him, such a scene was no stranger to him, and even the most people who could get along with her like this were him, swimming in boats, admiring lights, watching dances, and enjoying flowers...
But why do you feel so strange, no matter which time you sit opposite each other like this, it seems like the first time.
So close, so far.
"Okay, the lady needs me to bother, let's talk about it." He laughed.
Cheng Jianniang smiled and thanked her again.
Qin Arc's horse galloped away from the door, and Zhou Jilema, who walked to the corner of the street, stopped, looking at Qin Arc, who didn't see him, passing by.
It turns out that he came here.
Did you think of something again?
But it looks a little absent-minded...
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen urged the horse forward again, only to take two steps and suddenly rein in the horse, looking forward with a slightly surprised face.
Someone came in front of Cheng Jianniang's door again, and the young man who dismounted under the summer sun was dressed simply, but it still attracted people's attention.
The man dismounted and looked up, although he couldn't see the description, but he could feel the ease, he briskly raised his feet and stepped up the steps and knocked on the door, the door soon opened, and the man stepped in...
How did he get here?
Oh, when did he come back?
Zhou Zhen's gaze couldn't help but sweep over the street, the flow of people was like weaving and shouting, but with his keenness, he could see that there were some sharp people scattered in the surrounding crowd, surrounding the Cheng family's house.
"His Royal Highness!"
Looking at the King of Jin'an who was standing in the courtyard, Banqin, who had heard the little girl's advice and didn't believe it, shouted in surprise.
"Why are you here?"
Striding through the daylight, the king of Jin'an County who stood under the mottled shadows of the trees smiled.
"I'm back on an errand." He said.
It's weird, this is the first time he's been to this house, but how can he feel like home...
No, no, how can you say that, it should be said that it is a familiar feeling.
Wang Xin'an of Jin'an County nodded, looking at the woman and the maidservant in front of him.
Because people are familiar, things are also familiar.
"Coming back from an errand? Why is there no movement at all for such a big thing? Banqin said in a loud voice.
King Jin'an shook his head.
"Something so embarrassing, embarrassed to make a big fuss? I can't wait to dig a hole in the ground and come in from outside the city. He said.
Banqin was amused.
"What a shame? Your Highness. She laughed.
"You little, it seems to be the same as that noisy Banqin, this kind of humiliation that I went to persuade the thieves and almost lost my life, why do I have to say it?" King Jin'an frowned and said.
Banqin smiled and could barely straighten his waist.
Cheng Jianniang also smiled slightly.
"There's no shame in that." She said, "Luck doesn't come out of nowhere, you deserve it." ”
I've heard a lot of praise, but when the three words come into his ears, his smile can't help but overflow from the bottom of his heart.
"Your Highness is here today, do you want our lady to congratulate you?" Banqin asked with a smile, while leading the way.
Today, hearing these three words, the king of Jin'an seemed to think of something to stop laughing and straighten his expression.
"It's not." He said, "I'm here today to tell you something. ”
Cheng Jianniang, who had already walked to the bottom of the corridor, turned to look at him.
"That's what I'm trying to say." The king of Jin'an County stepped forward and looked at her, "Cheng Fang, is it okay for you to marry me?" ”
Yes?
What the?
Banqin felt that she had heard something but didn't seem to hear it, and looked at the young man standing in the courtyard in a bit of a daze.
