Chapter 321: Drunken Gaffe
Ke Jia silently walked out of the room, out of the courtyard where Xia Chuqi lived, and just walked around a few nearby courtyards, as if he was taking a random walk, his back was straight, he didn't look around, and he didn't sneak around...... Except that when he walked to the house where Xia Tinggan lived, when he heard the old man and the wine and meat monk Daochang discussing the dialectical materialism of "the country is broken by mountains and rivers", he paused for a moment in a little irritability, and there was nothing abnormal......
Outside the courtyard, the moonlight dissolves and pours on the bamboo plantain, which is extremely quiet.
"Not necessarily!" Xia Chuqi interrupted her, with a smile on her lips, and pouted, "Follow up and take a look at Boss A...... What to do! β
"Princess, slave maid go and give you ......"
"I'm hungry......"
Looking at the door slowly closing, Xia Chuqi glanced at the golden sleeves.
"Tsk!"
Isn't it true that everyone will change their personality after eating a few more cups?
Jiayi's relationship with her is unusual, and he is not as polite as others, unless he has to take into account his dignity in front of others, if not, he rarely has such a strangeness with her in private......
No, to be so polite to her? Ghosts.
A stiffened his cheeks, froze in place, looked at her like a monster, and arched his hand, "If it's okay, the subordinates will retreat first." Rest the princess, it's almost dawnβ"
Seeing that he was silent, and didn't look at himself with half of his eyes, Xia Chuqi suddenly realized that he let out an "oh", opened his mind, and guessed with his chin in his hand, "Isn't it that you also like Qinglan?" Seeing that she married your sworn brother Chen Jing, I felt uncomfortable, yes or no? β
ββ¦β¦β
"You didn't come to Aoisui, so you got pregnant, uncomfortable?"
ββ¦β¦β
"You're from Aoi Shui, don't you feel well?" The seventh day of the summer is ridiculous.
But he seems to be in a bad mood?
Xia Chuqi saw that he was sullen, and his black face was a little red, and he knew that he had also eaten a lot of wine. Jia Yi and Chen Jing are sworn brothers, and when they encounter such a happy event, they will naturally eat and drink more.
"Hmm. The princess called me? β
When she screamed for the fifth time, Jia Yi came in with a black face, just silently hanging his head.
"Jiayi..."
"Jiayi also drank too much? A ......"
When he first entered the princess's room to serve, Jin Sleeve was very excited, and he was even more diligent in doing things, and he came to report all his troubles. But Xia Chuqi rubbed his forehead, and his scalp was about to explode.
The golden sleeve is a newly plucked girl who came to serve the seventh day of the summer month, and the silver sleeve who served Qinglan is a twin sister, and they look very similar, originally the two of her were in the stove room to be a fire girl. Because Xia Chuqi often went to the stove to do death for Baoyin, she became familiar with them after coming and going, she felt that these twin sisters were delicate, sweet-mouthed, and diligent, and had long been ready to be promoted to the room, but she had never found a suitable opportunity. Now I borrowed Qinglan, it's just right.
"Princess, the chief of the guard has drunk too much...... Walking around the yard alone, looking weird and scary......"
Zhao Zhu's eyebrows shimmered, and Xia Chuqi was drunk and walked around the room a few times, wondering who that person was, when the voice of the golden sleeve came from outside.
Xia Chuqi was full of slander in her heart, but the doctor still had benevolence, she took out the two prescriptions pressed under the jewelry box on the dressing table, stuffed them to Zhao Zhu, and only said that he would try the effect first......
If you believe him, you will have a ghost!
Is it really like he said, just a friend who doesn't get along much?
After thinking about it again, the person who could let Zhao Bottle personally interrogate was by no means an ordinary person.
Isn't it a disappointment to mention this on a happy day?
Xia Chuqi felt that this guy was a little strange.
In addition, before Zhao Zun went to the camp, he made a special trip to the apse to ask Xia Chuqi, who was a little half-drunk, and asked the pulse case medical files entrusted to her last time, did she think of a way to detoxify......
For another example, Xiao Baoyin's fox stole fish bones and stuck his throat, learned to bark as a dog and a wolf, and ran dozens of laps in the yard, and finally got tired and ran to Xia Chuqi for help...... was slapped on the head by Xiao Baoyin, and the bones were slapped off and saved......
For example, Erbao's father-in-law was also happy to drink a few glasses, singing the famous Kunqu opera sentence "Peony Pavilion" all the way, and happily rolled into the thatched pit.
In addition to the drunken gaffe of the little grandfather, there were a lot of things that happened this night.
The most bizarre thing is that after getting drunk, Grandpa Yuan not only took off a priceless jade pendant from his body and handed it to Chen Jing, but also gave Chen Jing a five-entry private mansion purchased in Beiping Mansion as a congratulatory gift. It is said that when he woke up on the second day, the little grandfather beat his chest and breathed bitterly, and his heart and liver were throbbing......
Especially Yuan You, who didn't get married by himself, drank more than the groom Chen Jing.
It's probably because the war has strained their nerves for too long, and this relaxation has made the big guys a little indulgent.
At the banquet, toasts, orders, and loud noises, and the wedding banquet was very lively.
In the hall, the girls of the song and dance sang and danced......
In the wedding banquet hall where the guests gathered, the red colors were hung and the red felt was paved on the floor, and a piece of red was happy, and everyone's eyes were full of joy. Although they are now in the war, life is a little tight, but the dishes on the banquet are also rich, and the number of big weddings that should be there is not less, and the generals of the Jin army drink and eat meat in large pieces, drinking heartily, and making a lot of noise. In that joy, it seems that there is no feeling of war at all about going to Baxian tomorrow.
The sound of firecrackers and the sound of ceremonial music resounded in the sky.
The big wedding was done.
Since the bride and groom live in the Jin Palace, the wedding procession actually walked around the street where the Jin Palace's Mansion was located, carrying the sedan chair upside down, blowing and blowing according to the custom to cross the threshold, cross the brazier, and listen to the congratulatory speech of the officiant...... When she arrived at the main hall, Qinglan, who was dressed in a phoenix crown and wore a big red hijab on her head, bowed to Xia Tinggan according to the number of rituals, changed her name to her father, and was regarded as having worshiped the high hall, and then she was accompanied by Xi Niang and a little girl named Silver Sleeves into the cave room.
Of course, everything is simple in wartime.
The so-called "wedding" is also a "dusk ceremony" nowadays, that is, the procession to welcome the relatives does not arrive until dusk. When the groom Chen Jing rode a horse to the door of the Jin Palace, it was already dark, and the little maid held a red lantern to open the way in front of him, shouting all the way, and under the guidance of Xi Po, he welcomed the new son-in-law in strict accordance with the marriage customs......
After flipping through the old imperial calendar, Xia Chuqi was very satisfied.
The day that comes is better than the day that hits.
It is advisable to break the ground, open the diamond, bury, collect, marry, enter the house, sacrifice, seek heirs, seek wealth, travel, migrate and pay money, recruit money, and accept sons-in-law...... All in all, it's a good day.
The fourth day of the winter month.
~
didn't know that Xia Chuqi was being pressed on the couch and tickled......
Zheng Erbao was about to bring tea in, listening to the arrogant atmosphere of "daytime prostitution", he paused outside the door, neither entering nor retreating, after thinking about it for a long time, he finally closed his eyes, stomped his feet, and turned to leave.
There was a louder shout from the room, more powerful than killing a pig.
"Ahh
"Then I can't blame me."
"Ahh
"Are you teasing you?"
"Ahh Xia Chuqi was stunned.
"Well held. But Ah Qi, we are husband and wife, do we have to ...... the stolen money" Zhao Tuo solemnly turned her body over and pressed her on the couch, the meaning between the lines, if she refused to share the spoils, he would do her, "Well, Ah Qi will do it." β
"Wow!" Xia Chuqi wanted to deny it, but he pursed his lips and smiled, "You know me-" After a moment of silence, she squinted slightly, stared at him slyly, and half-hugged him with her shoulders hooked, "I have to say, our master is really wise and martial, and he even knows this." But, ahaha. How's that? I just took it, how's that, how's that? β
Zhao Zhu coldly grabbed her hand, and his fingertips swiped lightly in her palm, scratching her itchy retracted hand, and he said seriously, "Others don't know, but the master knows that Ah Qi recognized Qinglan as his sister in order to take Chen Jing's gift money." β
"Hmm. Reasonable. β
"Go!" Xia Chuqi raised her eyebrows, sat up suddenly, poked his chest with a finger, as if she liked the temperature, she simply touched it through his collar again, and waited for the cold hand to touch him, before chuckling, "Shouldn't it cost money to beg your daughter-in-law?" I'm the bride's sister, isn't it normal for him to give the bride price? β
"It's right to apportion, but it's ......" Zhao Tuo lowered his head and looked at her fixedly, there seemed to be a flash of light in his dark eyes, and his tone was light, "I heard that you defrauded Chen Jing of a large sum of silver...... He gave you all his savings as a bride price, and he sold his pants to beg his daughter-in-law, where did his money go? β
"Huh?" Xia Chuqi looked at him with a smile.
"Ah Qi has thought about it?"
Zhao Zhu's brows sank, staring at her.
"Oula!" Xia Chuqi's bitter face changed, and he suddenly patted him on the shoulder in a good mood, "Didn't you think about it like this earlier?" I am a good person, in order not to make your heart ache, I decided to fulfill you, well, the silver of the wedding banquet, the two of us will share it, and one person will share it in half. That's how you like a loving couple. β
Zhao Jun nodded again.
She blinked obediently again, "Do you really feel heartache for me?" β
Zhao Jun nodded.
Zhao Zhu said that he was about to pull the quilt to cover her body, but Xia Chuqi didn't let him go, carefully pulled his sleeve, and asked pitifully, "Master, do you really think I'm pitiful?" β
"Poor, good, lie down and squint for a while."
"Nope." Xia Chuqi shook his head violently.
Zhao Bottle was originally teasing her, where would she really lose it? Seeing that on her white little face, the eye circles on both sides were dark blue, she couldn't help frowning, put her on the bed, rubbed her thumb, and said heartachely: "Didn't sleep last night?" β
"Yo, it's the bottle? See smiled, saw smiled...... Since it's your old man, if you want to be thin, you can be light, if you want to take advantage, take advantage, I won't resist......"
Hooking his neck violently, she opened her eyes with a smile.
As soon as the words fell, Xia Chuqi, who was pretending to be asleep, felt that his body was falling down - what this guy said was to let her go, but what he could do was to throw her down.
To put it mildly, he did it firmly.
Zhao Zhu stared at her lightly, his cheeks twitched slightly, he hugged her arm tightly, lowered his head to the root of her ear, and said softly, "Miss, don't be annoyed, I see that you are sleeping too soundly, so you dare to be bold and abrupt." If the young lady does not want to, this will put her down......"
She didn't open her eyes, she looked ignorant, as if she was dreaming.
"Bold thief, dare to take advantage of my aunt and grandmother...... Don't kill you? β
Originally, he was afraid that she would freeze and wanted to carry her to the bed to rest for a while, but as soon as he took a step, her arm was grabbed by her.
He squinted, walked over to pick her up, and shook it, only to feel that this body seemed to sink a lot, and couldn't help shaking his head, "Pig!" β
"I actually slept on the tuyere!"
He called, but the man didn't respond.
"Ah Qi......?"
As soon as he stepped into the door, he saw Xia Chuqi sitting on a chair with his head drooping, sleeping soundly.
Zhao Zhu exchanged a few words with the generals, and then Bingyi accompanied him and went back to the apse to change clothes.
As soon as the sky turned white, a layer of hoarfrost covered the window paper, and the cold wind blew the window lattice. When Zhao Bottle returned from the camp, many senior generals of the Jin army also arrived, and the wedding banquet was placed in the front hall, and there was no legendary flowing water seat, but at the beginning of the summer, the servants in the palace were sent to the people who came to congratulate the people at the gate of the Jin Palace......
Reluctant, reluctant, ...... Tired, tired!
She doesn't feel like she's marrying a girl, but she has the feeling of marrying a girl.
Qinglan is getting married......
At this time, Xia Chuqi was still lying on the bed to "bury her youth", but she was busy from yesterday night to the beginning of this morning, and she only retreated from the front line of battle. Back in the house, listening to Leli beating gongs and drums to try out the tune, she yawned and sat down in a chair by the window and fell asleep.
In winter, the nights are long and the days are short, and the hours have passed, and the sky has not yet dawned.
~
Also, weddings...... Is she really there to play?
It was clear that she was misunderstanding her and Chen Jing...... It's hard to help yourself.
Qinglan frowned, a little skeptical that she would really understand.
"How can I not know about that little between men and women? Come on, don't think too much, sit down obediently, calm down, and wait for Brother Chen to marry you. I have to go out and get busy, there are a lot of guests here today, I think there will be a war tomorrow, I have to let the big guys have a good time with the pre-war wedding......"
Xia Chuqi smiled and squeezed his eyes, and then changed the topic.
"I know, I know."
Thinking that she had been hiding this from her, Qinglan felt guilty, lowered her eyes slightly, and wanted to explain, "Princess, I and Brother Chen...... It's not that we want to hide it sincerely, but at that time, it happened suddenly, and we had to ......"
Xia Chuqi blinked and laughed at her, "What if not?" Do you really think that I dislike you and want to marry you off? β
Qinglan's body stiffened and was shocked, "You know everything?" β
Xia Chuqi helped her up, aimed at her lower abdomen, and whispered in her ear, "If you really appreciate me, take good care of my nephew for me...... Well? β
"Heh", Qinglan burst into tears and laughed.
"Alright." Xia Chuqi glanced at the helpless Xi Po on the side, and gently wiped her face with a silk, "You see, this cry is not pitiful, but it is like a flower cat, and it takes time to re-make up, and Xi Po's heart and liver are throbbing......"
"Princess, that's what I should ......"
"Gotta feed you!" Xia Chuqi's nose was also a little sour, she wiped her eyes, smiled, and went over to help her, "I have suffered from these few heads you kowtow, and I am afraid of losing my life, if you continue to be sour, how many years will I have to live less?" Qinglan, listen to me, no one is born to serve others, you are the same person as me, we are equal, if you say grateful, I should be grateful to you. In the past few years, you have treated me with a heart, I have opened my hands in clothes and my mouth in food, and I am about to become a lazy pig......"
"Qinglan can serve you in this life, it must be that she has done good deeds in her previous life and accumulated virtue...... Princess, if I can, I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life, and I will be your slave and maid forever......"
"Princess...... Sister ......" lifted the hem of the big red wedding robe, Qinglan reverently helped Xia Chuqi to sit at the top of the position, and then knelt down respectfully and kowtowed to her a few times.
But she arranged everything for her.
Chu Qi never said anything nice.
Chen Jing's family is prosperous, although they don't live together for the time being, they will inevitably get along with his family in the future. I think if she marries Chen Jing as a girl, the Chen family will definitely think that she is high and will look down on her disciples, and when the time comes, how will she raise her head in her in-law's house?
As the younger sister of Princess Jin, she became the sister-in-law of King Jin, and this identity is tantamount to a gift for her without a father or mother. You must know that it is difficult for a woman who does not have the support of her mother's family not to be angry with her in-laws in this era.
When she knew the truth, Qinglan's eyes were even redder.
"Of course, haha! You've got an extra sister. β
Qinglan was slightly stunned, "Sister......?" β
"Call sister! It's against you! "At the beginning of summer, the seven righteousness is strict.
"Princess, your virtue of rebirth for slaves and maids ......"
Qinglan looked at her comparison and painting, it was very funny, and she wanted to laugh, but her throat was like stuffed with cotton, and her mouth was flattened, and she still couldn't help but let out big tears and fall down her cheeks.
"Ouch, auntie, I beg you, don't sour me...... Don't worry, no matter if you're around or not, I will eat well and dress warmly, and my relationship with you will not be separated...... When our grandfather hits Jingshi, when the time comes, we will have to eat fragrant food and drink spicy food together...... Well? β
"......" Qinglan snorted desperately to prevent tears from flowing.
"Alright, alright." Xia Chuqi waved his hand impatiently and walked over, gently wrapped his arms around her shoulders, stroked her as if comforting his own sister, and said with a smile, "No wonder everyone says that the girl who marries will cry so much before marriage, seeing you like this, I finally understand...... Ugly or not? β
"Princess......" Qinglan already had tears in her eyes.
"Don't be sour!" Xia Chuqi glanced at her, pursed his lips, and smiled, "Who wants you to serve?" You girl, you are more powerful than your master, you are in charge of everything all day long, I have long been tired of you, and I wish I would marry you. Now it's okay, Brother Chen is willing to ask for you, I can't ask for it......"
The reluctance in her eyes was obvious.
In the past, Qinglan could be inseparable from Xia Chu's seven inches, and waited close to her food, clothing, housing and transportation. But from tomorrow onwards, she will no longer be able to be the personal girl of the seventh day of the summer month. Because, Chen Jing is also the general of the Jin army, and after marrying her, Qinglan is the general's wife, how can she still be the slave of the princess of Jin?
Marrying and obeying the husband is a principle that must be followed.
"Princess, I'm married, how can I serve you?"
Sitting in the boudoir that dispersed the hustle and bustle, Qinglan thanked the Xi Po who pointed out the wedding ceremony, and then turned her face to look at the seventh day of the summer month, a face with exquisite makeup inexplicably added a touch of complicated sadness.
That's right, the new house is ready to be in the Jin Palace. At the beginning of the summer, the seventh day of the summer month found someone to re-paste the window paper in the courtyard where Chen Jing lived before, hung red silk, red lanterns, lit red candles, and laid out a red bed, and a warm happy room was laid out, and it looked decent.
The generals and colonels of the Jin army in Beiping Mansion all went to the Jin Palace's mansion to drink happy wine.
But I can't find fault with the partiality, so it becomes reasonable.
This is unreasonable, and it is indeed unreasonable.
In Zhao Zhu's edict, Princess Jin recognized the personal girl Qinglan as her sister, but Qinglan was not young, Princess Jin was worried about her life's events, and promised her to Chen Jing, who was also not young, and before going south, the marriage of the two of them was done.
However, because Zhao Zhu issued a handwritten edict in the morning, even if the big guys felt a little incredible, no one dared to say anything except blessings.
Not only the Jin Palace, but also the entire Jin army was a sensation.
The wedding came very suddenly.
~
When she turned her back, she also secretly rubbed her eyes.
"Okay." Qinglan lowered her eyes.
"You can only answer me one word now." Xia Chuqi's eyes shimmered, "Say okay." β
"Princess, I ......" Qinglan looked at her, her eyes moist.
"Don't thank me." Yawned, Xia Chuqi rubbed his eyes, smiled and rubbed her arm, "Don't ink, hurry up and take a bath, come out and try the wedding gown when you're done, if it doesn't fit, it's too late to change it now......."
But my heart was pounding, and I didn't know how to express my gratitude.
Needless to say, she understood why.
"Princess......" she choked.
It turned out that the person who was going to marry now was herself.
Everyone was busy, but she was stunned.
"Congratulations to Miss Qinglanβ" The girls covered their mouths and snickered, and one by one they were overjoyed, and they all gathered around to say hello. Xi Po took her hand and explained to the east and the west, while the little girls prepared warm water for the smile and bathed her and changed her clothes.
"This ......" she was stunned, not daring to take a step.
She hurried back to the house, but she didn't expect that her house had completely changed, with colorful lights, red and green, completely drowning in joy.
She was busy until the end of the day, and then she took a breath of relief. At this time, Xia Chuqi happened to send Erbao's father-in-law to come over and call her back to the room to discuss something.
Qinglan also didn't sleep all night.
All night, no one slept in the palace. Everyone was so tired and sweaty, even Xiao Baoyin was so happy that she danced and ran around with the little fox, which added to the chaos......
Preparing for the wedding banquet in the evening, I was in a hurry, but fortunately, the rule of "money can make ghosts grind" is applicable to ancient and modern times. With money, the clothes of the bride and groom were made overnight, and the grand decoration of the Jin Palace's mansion was also not lacking.
One by one, the rumors spread out, and there were people who said anything, but they didn't know much about Princess Jin, except for "The Jin Palace's Mansion is going to have a happy event" is true, most of the rest are fake.
"Did you hear that? Princess Jin Ming'er is going to have a big wedding banquet! The flowing water seat at the gate of the Jin King's Mansion should be placed for ten miles, and it will be placed for three days, and anyone can go to eat......"
"Did you hear that? Princess Jin Ming'er is going to have a big wedding banquet! The flowing water seat at the gate of the Jin King's Mansion should be placed for ten miles, and anyone can go to eat......"
"Did you hear that? Princess Jin Ming'er is going to have a big wedding banquet! The flowing water seat at the gate of the Jin Palace, anyone can go and eat......"
"Did you hear that? Princess Jin Ming'er is going to have a big wedding banquet! β
The shops that have long been closed and closed for bedtime have not escaped the toss. Garment stores, jewelry stores, grocery stores, silk and satin shops...... One by one, the lanterns were lit and the shop was reopened.
People who have not slept late at night, in the green houses, wine shops, and teahouses, are talking enthusiastically, shouting absurdity, but also doubting......
The news came out in the evening, because there was no foreshadowing, and it came too suddenly, and it shocked countless people's jaws.
The Jin Palace's Mansion is going to have a happy event!
Qinglan personally went to find Xi Po, measured the happy clothes, pasted the word "Xi", and tied the Xi lantern...... Busy and busy, except for occasionally feeling that the eyes of the people in the house were a little weird, she didn't doubt that the serious Chu Qi would lie to her at all.
But since it was the Bodhisattva who said it, it is true.
Chong Xi is a bit mysterious!
Xia Chuqi only told her that the Bodhisattva had given herself a dream, the battle of Baxian was about to start, and in order to ensure the victory of the Jin army and reduce casualties, a formal wedding banquet had to be held before the war to celebrate the ......
Therefore, in the next preparatory process, Qinglan herself was also yelled at, busy with work before and after, but she didn't know that it was her happy event at all......
During the "staff meeting", she deliberately avoided Qinglan.
As soon as the person jumped off the carriage, she found Huang Shanbo, the housekeeper of the palace, and then he took the lead to mobilize all the labor forces in the Jin palace, and the division of labor and cooperation......
On the fifth day of the first month of winter, the Jin army attacked Baxian, and the wedding must be tomorrow.
Xia Chuqi has always been very lazy, she can delay for two days, she can definitely drag out three days, but today is the third day of the winter month, she can't delay it for a day, she has to arrange the business overnight - Qinglan and Chen Jing's wedding.
When someone had eaten and drunk enough, she packed up the dishes, chopsticks and food boxes and left the camp in a huff. When he returned to the Jin Palace, he was already suffering from back pain and leg cramps, and he couldn't wait to meet Zhou Gong directly...... But she had to brace herself and continue to work.
Hallucinations, must be hallucinations.
Maybe it's because it's too cold, maybe it's less than doing such a thing on the desk in the office, Xia Chuqi shivered, his throat was always in a tight state, and his body shrunk, as if he was in some kind of void realm, and he heard a few vague sounds as if he were nothing......
The north wind outside the camp is blowing, the red charcoal fire in the furnace in the camp reflects the infinite warmth of the picture, the clothes are scattered, the sideburns are flying lightly, the woman in the painting is like fine porcelain, and the white barefoot is on the man's inky black cloak, black and white are clearly distinguished, just like the contrast between their two big and small figures, forming a strong visual impact......
It's just that he unbuttoned her pantsβ
And so it was, he promised not to take off her clothes, and he did not take them off.
In Xia Chuqi's heart, Zhao Nineteen has always been a person who does what he says.
