Chapter 88: Cui Zixuan's Behind
Hearing this son's question, Jiang Mi's little face immediately wrinkled, she was bitter, and her eyes sparkled and replied, "I'm afraid." ”
At this moment, Jiang Mi's baby fat face was indeed full of sorrow, but somehow, several people always felt that with her sparkling eyes, with her overly serious, lest others not know that she was expressing her opinions very carefully, there was an indescribable sense of joy coming.
The boy couldn't help laughing, and after a while, he turned his head to look at his friends around him, and sighed: "I have also been to Shu before, and I always feel that Shu people are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they inevitably lack some backbone. Now it seems that my thoughts are still biased, such as Princess Relict Flower, a young girl has a generous hero that most men in the world do not have! ”
As soon as this son's words came out, everyone around nodded their heads. At this moment, when they looked at Jiang Mi again, their eyes couldn't help but have a little more respect and regret.
But these people don't know that Jiang Mi is really not too afraid, but if you want to ask her why she is not very afraid, she can't say why.
On one side, the Southern Tang envoy surnamed Li glanced at Jiang Mi, turned to the beautiful man and said lightly: "Shen Tan, if you cherish this princess of the relics, you can open your mouth to ask Emperor Shu to marry, think about it, with the national power of my Southern Tang Dynasty, even if Emperor Shu hates this little girl Jiang again, he will consider it after listening to your request." ”
The words of this Southern Tang envoy were reasonable, but as soon as his ordinary words came out, all the Southern Tang envoys seemed to laugh. The beautiful man named Shen Tan smiled bitterly, but there was no interface.
Jiang Mi also knew that if she could save herself, it could only be these Southern Tang people, but she was born in poverty, and she knew that she was not stunning, and she didn't have any other strengths that people liked very much.
Because he never asks for anything, Jiang Mi is not disappointed. Next, under the frequent gaze of everyone in the Southern Tang Dynasty, she drank two cups of wine very calmly and naturally, and ate a few snacks. Under the lights. At this time, Jiang Mi's demeanor was calm and her attitude was calm, which caused those Southern Tang people to look up to her a little more in their hearts again.
Because Emperor Shu left the venue in anger, the rest of the banquet could not be held, half an hour later. Finally someone took the lead and left.
Watching everyone in the hall retreat one by one, Jiang Mi looked at the wine bottle meat that had just been put on the four sides of the hall not long ago, and she touched her stomach, feeling that she didn't seem to be hungry, it seemed that there was no need to be a full ghost, so she turned around and followed everyone out of the hall.
In fact, Jiang Mi didn't leave, and everyone slowed down intentionally or unintentionally. Seeing her look at those wine and meat stupidly. The people who looked around quietly wanted to laugh for a while, and they couldn't help but feel a little pity for a while. And Wang Yufan Yufeng and other sons, their faces were already a little sad at this time.
……
Emperor Shu stood in a high attic.
In front of him, there was the bustling and lively hall, watching everyone in the hall withdraw in turn, watching those Southern Tang envoys stride away, watching Jiang Mi fall alone at the end, being watched by everyone and isolated by everyone, Emperor Shu's cold purple face finally showed a touch of murder.
After the fingers placed on the zhu fence were slowly tightened, Emperor Shu opened his mouth coldly. "I don't want her to see the sun tomorrow!"
Obviously, there was no one in the attic, but after Emperor Shu's voice fell, a vague shadow floated out of the darkness, and the shadow bowed deeply towards Emperor Shu. He replied crudely, "Yes!" ”
But just as the shadow disappeared again, there was a rush of footsteps at the stairs.
In the blink of an eye, a eunuch came behind Emperor Shu, an elderly eunuch who had always been Emperor Shu's confidant.
The eunuch approached Emperor Shu and said softly, "Your Majesty." A young man surnamed Cui wants to see you. ”
Emperor Shu frowned, he turned around and asked, "Surname Cui?" ”
"Yes!" The eunuch whispered: "It should be the person who needs to be used by Cui Zixuan's side, and the slave maid has seen it next to Cui Gongzi before." ”
"Cui Zixuan's people?" Emperor Shu whispered, slowly, a smile appeared on his face, looking ahead, Emperor Shu said lightly: "Let him come up." ”
"Yes."
After a while, the eunuch came up with a young man.
As soon as the young man came behind Emperor Shu, he saluted him respectfully, and then the young man said, "Villain Cui Wu, I will give you a gift to Your Majesty on the order of Cui Zixuan and Cui Lang." ”
"Gift-giving?" Emperor Shu was taken aback, he turned around and looked at Cui Wu seriously, and after looking him up and down a few times, Emperor Shu said with a smile: "It's so dignified, how could Cui Lang think of giving me a gift?" "Everyone in the world knows that people like Cui Zixuan are thousands of dollars, and they never disdain it and are not worth mentioning. If someone like him mentions the word "gift", the value of this gift must be amazing!
For a moment, Emperor Shu was rarely curious.
"Yes!" After Cui Wu respectfully agreed, he lowered his head and said politely: "My son-in-law had an explanation when he left Shudi, and he could use this gift to ask His Majesty for a favor. ”
Speaking of this, Cui Wu took out a cloth bag from his arms, and then he respectfully presented the cloth bag to Emperor Shu.
The eunuch hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it.
After Emperor Shu took the cloth bag from the eunuch's hand, he slowly opened it: inside was a drawing.
After looking at the drawing by the light for a while, Emperor Shu wondered: "Isn't this my southeast county leader?" It's so decent, what did Cui Lang draw it and give it to me for? ”
Cui Wu said slowly: "My son-in-law said that when he traveled to the southeast the year before last, he once found a small iron ore in a certain place!" ”
"What?" Emperor Shu screamed in shock.
It wasn't just him who was taken aback, the eunuch on one side also quickly looked up!
Although there are abundant products in Shu, iron ore is very rare, perhaps it should be said that it is not that iron ore is rare, but that the two emperors of Shu have found very little iron ore.
Iron is a sharp weapon, and the existence of iron ore means that Shu can have more sharp weapons, and in this era of war and chaos, for an emperor, with weapons, he has everything!
Emperor Shu's heart suddenly became hot, he rushed to Cui Wu with a swoop, clasping his arm tightly, and Emperor Shu asked urgently: "Where is the iron ore found by your son-in-law in the southeast?" Why didn't he mark it? ”
As soon as he said the last sentence, Emperor Shu immediately realized that he had said something stupid. At that moment, he let go of Cui Wu, slowly straightened his back, and said majestically: "Say, what do you sons want?" ”
"Yes." Cui Wu still lowered his head, still looking very respectful, and he said politely: "When my son-in-law left, he said that he had grown so big that he had never paid attention to any little girl. This time he has been in Shudu for so long, and the only thing that makes him feel happy and forgetful is the Princess of the Relic Flower......"
Almost as soon as the name of Cui Wu, the "Princess of the Relic Flower", came out, whether it was Emperor Shu or the eunuch, they all understood what he meant.
Emperor Shu stood there coldly, staring at Cui Wu expressionlessly. After a long time, Emperor Shu said lightly: "In this way, if it weren't for tonight's incident, I, the Emperor of Shu, would never have known that there was such an iron mine in my territory for the rest of my life?" ”
Cui Wu did not answer.
At this time, Emperor Shu was really angry with Jiang Mi, he gasped a few times, and paced up the attic with both hands.
While walking hurriedly, Emperor Shu said in an unkind tone: "Listen to what you mean, then Jiang Mi Cui Zixuan must be saved?" ”
Cui Wu still lowered his head, and even, his tone was still steady and quiet, "Yes!" ”
Emperor Shu sneered.
After sneering for a while, Emperor Shu rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, only to hear him say hoarsely: "Since this is the case, I will respond." ”
Speaking of this, Emperor Shu said again: "Now you can mark that place, right?" ”
Unexpectedly, when Cui Wu heard this, he just laughed and said nothing.
Emperor Shu's face was as dark as water, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I understand...... Tomorrow, I will announce to the world that as early as when Princess Yihua moved into Shudu, I promised her a gold medal to avoid death and pardoned her for three capital crimes! ”
At this time, Cui Wu was satisfied, he bowed deeply to Emperor Shu, and said respectfully and gracefully: "Please also ask Your Majesty to send someone to Yajixuan to my son's residence tomorrow." In a blink of an eye, he said, "The villain will retire first." ”
Looking at Cui Zi's graceful departure, Emperor Shu watched all the way with an expressionless face.
After a long time, Emperor Shu suddenly laughed, only to hear him say coldly: "Cui Zixuan is nothing more than that!" ”
The eunuch knew why Emperor Shu said this, and at this moment, even the eunuch was laughing in his heart: How valuable is that iron ore? That Cui Zixuan was called Cui Lang of Shu by the world in vain, but now he gave away such a big benefit to others for a mere plaything, which is really stupid!
At this time, Emperor Shu even felt for the first time that his precautions against Cui Zixuan all along were superfluous! So a gentleman who is willing to throw out any interests for the sake of women, is he worthy of being so tight?
……
Jiang Mi followed the flow of people to the square.
Until she got into the carriage, until her carriage left the palace gate, until the crowd began to disperse, Jiang Mi was still alone. Whether it was the friends who had been socialized in the past, or the sons who used to be gentle and relative to her, they all avoided her like a plague, never approached, and no one looked back at her.
In this loneliness, Jiang Mi returned home.
The princess's mansion is also very quiet, the three mothers have already slept, and Jiang Mi doesn't want to call them up to discuss, after all, in the face of a power like Emperor Shu, it is useless for them to discuss at most.
After returning to the dormitory, Jiang Mi fell asleep honestly. (To be continued.) )
