Chapter 13 See
Sensing Zhao Jiu's loss, Qin Wan thought about it and said, "Zhao Jiulang, how about going to see Aya with me?" β
"What?" After a moment of surprise, Zhao Jiu immediately reacted and shook his head again and again, "I can't help it, I can't help it." "Words * Love * First * Hair"
The acting king's concern for his beloved daughter, he knew it best in his heart, Qin Wan helped him speak in front of the acting king, and let him enter the eyes of the acting king, which was enough. If Qin Wan took him directly to his home and introduced him to the acting king, the acting king would definitely think that he was relying on Qin Wan's youth and ignorance to coax her. Even if he could explain it clearly, the acting king would have a pimple in his heart...... He didn't do stupid things that were too much.
When Qin Wan heard this, he looked at Zhao Jiu a little strangely, not understanding why he would flatly refuse when he obviously wanted to see Aya, so he would flatly refuse when a great opportunity was placed in front of him. But she didn't ask, she just secretly wrote it down, then nodded, remembered something again, looked at Zhao Jiu, and said very seriously: "A-Niang said to Aya that there is not enough iron, and she may have to borrow some from Liu Yuanjun." β
After that, she paused for a moment, and then said a little unhappily: "Liu Yuanjun and Mrs. Liu are indeed kind to us, but the attitude of the two of them towards our family is ...... Anyway, I don't really want to go, it's not interesting. β
Even she noticed it, can the acting king and the princess feel it? No, it should be said that the acting king may not really notice anything unusual, but the acting princess, that extremely shrewd woman, must know what Liu Kuan and Yan are thinking.
Like Zhao Jiu, who is bent on seeking a flying Huang Tengda, and is willing to make a desperate bet, after all, it is a minority, and the vast majority of people are like Liu Kuan - they are afraid of offending the emperor's eldest son, and they are afraid of getting into trouble, so they have to be not far away, not close, lukewarm, holding, coaxing, and offering. It's a pity that no one in this world is a fool, you are full of clever plans and proud, but you don't know that other people's hearts are very transparent. This is still the acting king has a good temper, if he meets a grudge and turns his luck again, Liu Kuan will have to shed his skin if he does not die in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhao Jiu's spirit was lifted.
Liu Kuan doesn't do anything, that's good! It's time for him to show his strength!
"Shen Niangzi's concerns are very reasonable." Because Qin Ke and Shen Man were demoted to concubines, Zhao Jiu's wording has always been cautious, and he will never let people find faults, I saw him looking at Qin Wan, and said respectfully, "We people have a total of twenty heavy knives, two crossbows, and five-sided square cowhide shields. Over the years, in order to hunt, his subordinates have also made a lot of bows and arrows, as well as twenty-five spears, as well as throwing guns, harpoons, and so on in recent years. β
Seeing that his attitude was so solemn, Qin Wan felt that this matter should be extremely important, so he said, "I'll talk to Aye, no." She thought for a moment and shook her head, "I'll go back and tell Aya now, Zhao Jiulang, I'll go first!" β
When Zhao Jiu heard this, he hurriedly said, "I'll send you!" β
Qin Wan waved his hand as he ran, signaling that he didn't need someone to send it, but how could Zhao Jiu listen? He sent Qin Wan to the door of the mansion, and when he saw her enter the house, he turned around, and just as he was about to leave, he saw Cheng Fang standing around the corner, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, let's go have a drink, how about it?" β
"Aya, Niang-" Qin Wan hurriedly rushed in, Qin Ke saw this, and said helplessly, "Bao'er, you kid ......"
Qin Wan stopped panting, smiled at his father, and then said, "Aye, I just asked Zhao Jiulang, and he said that they have a total of twenty heavy knives, two crossbows, five-sided square cowhide shields, twenty-five spears, and a lot of bows and arrows!" β
When Qin Ke heard this, he couldn't help but show a little shame on his face, but he leaned on the bed with a pale expression, and Shen Man, who looked like he was being tortured very badly by the child in his womb, "Huh", and asked, "Two crossbows?" Five-sided square cowhide shield? β
"Manniang?" Qin Keqi said, "What's the matter?" β
Shen Man shook his head: "It's okay, it's just ...... A little more. β
"More?" One big and one small spoke at the same time, and the younger one wrinkled his nose and said very firmly, "Bao'er heard it right, that's it!" β
Seeing that her daughter was a little unhappy, Shen Man smiled softly and said comfortingly: "A-Niang didn't say that Bao'er heard it wrong, maybe they brought more." But...... According to the rules of the Northern Ya Army, the team is equipped with a heavy knife, a crossbow, a gun, a square cowhide shield, a bow, and an arrow basket that can hold 100 arrows; The deputy team is equipped with a heavy sword, a spear, a square cowhide shield, a bow, and thirty arrows; The rest of the soldiers did not even have square cowhide shields, but heavy swords, spears, and bows and arrows. Even if you bring more, it won't ...... What's more, the imperial court controls weapons very strictly......"
Perhaps because of the fact that she was four months pregnant, the child was really noisy, Shen Man paused, took a few deep breaths, and then continued: "Although there are many soldiers in charge of escorting us, most of them are local Zhichong Mansion soldiers, and there are only twenty people who are really from the Northern Ya Army, among which there is a team, a team, and two fire chiefs. The number of heavy knives is correct, and the number of crossbows, shields, and guns is a bit large, so I'm a little surprised. β
Speaking of this, she sighed, as if to say to herself: "It's already a chore to carry these weapons on your back, could it be that there are still people who take precautions and add a little burden to themselves?" β
As soon as she said this, Qin Ke was a little restless, and when Shen Man saw it, he smiled and said, "It's just that if he wants to attack us, he will do it early, so why wait until today?" This person's gaze ...... The end is quite long-term, and it can be a manufacturable material. β
"Manniang, are youβ" Qin Ke frowned, Qin Wan knew that this was his father's displeasure, to be precise, a little apprehensive and hesitant. She didn't know why Qin Ke was like this, and just about to say something to please her father, she saw that Qin Ke seemed to have made up his mind, stood up, walked to the door, and called, "July, call Zhao Jiu to come over!" β
Qin Wan looked at his father in confusion, then at his mother, and whispered: "Aye, A-Niang......"
Seeing his daughter's well-behaved and cute appearance, Qin Ke felt sour, squatted down, and said softly: "Bao'er, is it okay for you and Aya to go to see Zhao Jiu?" How about staying in July to take care of A-Niang in the house? β
When Qin Wan heard this, he opened a big smile and stretched his arms at his father: "Okay!" β
Qin Ke smiled, skillfully picked her up, and came to the main house.
After a while, Cheng Fang walked in with Zhao Jiu, who saw the acting king, and was so excited that he couldn't tell it, but he didn't show anything on his face, he didn't even raise his head, and saluted Qin Ke respectfully, and said, "See Da Langjun." β
Hearing this title, Qin Ke was stunned at first, and then his eyebrows slowly stretched, and he rarely said a kind word: "Sit." β
Zhao Jiu was not ambiguous, and after thanking Qin Ke, he sat down next to the side of the chair. Qin Wan was a little narrow, deliberately took a few steps back, and couldn't help but smile - Zhao Jiu didn't face the chair at all, he completely used the lower plate to support the so-called "sitting posture", so he got up as soon as possible.
When his daughter left the crook of his arm, Qin Ke subconsciously looked over, and when he saw this scene, his heart was both a little sour and a little indescribably satisfied. He motioned for his daughter to stand up, then withdrew his gaze, looked at Zhao Jiu, and said calmly: "Bao'er is too naughty, these days, you have to look at this monkey." β
Zhao Jiu stood up with a "brush", and was so respectful that Cheng DΓΉ was almost rigid: "I don't dare to be humble." β
Alas?
Qin Wan's eyes widened slightly, feeling a little strange.
Why did Zhao Jiulang call himself a "subordinate" when he faced her, but he called himself a "lowly position" when he faced Aya?
When Qin Ke was still the acting king, he was used to seeing this kind of style, but after many years of leaving Chang'an, he didn't pay so much attention to it. Liu Kuan saw that he was friendly, and tried his best to avoid his trouble, but he was more humble than respectful, and not enough respectful. Now seeing Zhao Jiucheng's frightened attitude, Qin Ke felt a little sour while missing it. As for Zhao Jiu, he put away a little uncomfortable in his heart, and looked at Zhao Jiu seriously.
The nobles of the family like beauties, and when it comes to men, their faces are like crowns of jade, their eyes are like stars, their demeanor is graceful, and their literary brilliance is the first. Of course, the national character face and the A-character face are also good, at least everyone thinks that this person is majestic, upright and reliable, and has a good appearance as an official. According to this standard, Zhao Jiu can't stand it in any way. But his facial features are angular, his wheat-colored skin and his sturdy body are all masculine. If it is paired with his calm and calm demeanor, it can also give people a sense of security.
Although Qin Ke is not such a superficial person who judges people by appearance, he is really easy to be affected by the first impression, seeing that Zhao Jiu's attitude towards him is extremely respectful, he sighed, his expression became softer and softer, and motioned for Zhao Jiu to sit down, seeing Zhao Jiu next to the stool, refusing to move, before asking: "You have no official position and no position, and you have a 'nine' in your name, I don't know if you are from your own brothers, or even your cousins?" β
When Zhao Jiu heard this, he simply stood up again: "Back to Da Langjun, he has to be a cousin." β
Seeing this, Qin Ke couldn't cry or laugh: "That's it, just stand and reply!" β
Hearing Qin Ke say this, Zhao Jiu seemed to be relieved, Qin Ke was even more helpless, and paused for a moment before asking, "Then who else is in your family?" Married or not? β
"Hui Langjun, his humble father died twenty-five years ago, and he was posthumously awarded the title of Fire Commander for his military exploits; The elder brother of the in-law, Xingwu, attacked the official position, and he disappeared eight years ago. Because his brother had no children and no daughters, he entered the Northern Yajun Army to eat imperial food. The lowly biological mother has passed away, the sister-in-law has remarried, and no one has decided the major matters of marriage, so it has not been completed. β
Because of Princess Shen Man, Qin Ke also knows a thing or two about the Northern Yajun, and he knows that many things are hidden from the top. After all, rules are dead, people are alive. Especially in places like the Northern Yajun, the father dies and the son succeeds each other, and the relationship is intertwined. Since Zhao Jiu is nine, it proves that his cousins have at least eight, and they also have some relatives and friends. If it is a united family, after the death of Zhao Jiu's elder brother, it is necessary to make a point up and down, so that Zhao Jiu can attack the fire chief, instead of seeing him become a soldier, let alone not even telling his daughter-in-law. You must know that although Huo Chang is the lowest-ranking officer, just looking at Zhao Jiu's father who died on the battlefield can be posthumously sealed, you know how difficult it is to take this step.
Thinking of himself, who was also not taken seriously, Qin Ke sighed, and looked at Zhao Jiu's expression more gently: "What do you think, how is the word 'Su'?" β
