Chapter 069: It's New Year! (Ask for Votes)
"Are you fucking stupid?!"
The foul words sandwiched in the low drink rushed out of Zhao Zhu's mouth.
For a while, in the entire courtyard, those who had not yet dispersed, or those who cleared the snow, or the servants who were with them, were all stunned in the wind and snow, and looked at them with their eyes. The master of their family has always been as noble and graceful as in the clouds, when did he say such a rough talk?
Everyone was stunned, and Xia Chuqi raised his eyebrows, but he smiled.
"I don't have a mother's ......"
"Shut up."
He pursed his lips coldly, yelled at her, and then reached out and grabbed her wrist, and went to the direction of Chengde Courtyard together. However, on that dark and cold face, not only did the clouds not disperse, but there was also the danger of hail, which made the seven backs of the early summer cold. In my heart, if it weren't for the fact that this thing was so good-looking, I would have been able to scare people to death with his temperament and temper.
When she arrived at Chengde Courtyard, she didn't go anywhere else, and this lord directly threw her at the door of the thatched house.
"Why don't you go soon?"
He was angry with a straight face, but he brought her to the toilet, which was actually a little cute. At least, that's the view at the moment. But she just ate the croton powder, where would she react so quickly? The reason why I said that before was just to change the topic, and there was no intention of going to the thatched house at all.
Tilting his head and looking at his iron-blue face, one: one: Ben: Read: Novel 3w.ybdu The well-behaved face.
"Master, aren't you angry with me?"
Zhao Zhu's face was cold and cold, still ugly.
"You're not going to the hut?"
Looking at his appearance, Xia Chuqi became more and more happy and in a good mood.
"You say don't get angry first, and then I'll go to the thatched house."
Are there any people who threaten others with their own things about going to the hut? Except for the seventh day of the summer month, it is difficult to find this kind of second goods in this world. So, as soon as her voice fell, Zhao Zhu's cold face became a little darker, her facial features were like iron casting, gloomy and gloomy like a mountain rain was coming, and the coldness that she couldn't wait to pinch her neck really lived up to his title of "cold-faced Hades".
"What's wrong? It's scary to stare at me like this. Xia Chuqi went to pull his sleeve.
But his cold gaze lingered on her face for a moment, his face darkened, and he suddenly turned around and strode away.
"Heyβ"
Xia Chuqi shouted and was stunned.
This guy shouldn't think she's teasing him, but she didn't eat croton, right?
Oh yes! She was really more wronged than Dou E, and originally wanted to make a joke to ease the atmosphere, but she slapped the horse's leg on the horse's leg.
sighed, looked at the handsome back, she pursed her mouth, scolded "hypocritical", and turned back to the ear room, ready to get some medicine first. Otherwise, it will be really big for a while, and the little life may be over.
In the distance, she saw Li Miao, who was standing on the steps and waiting for her silently.
"Cousin, I'll give you a prescription, you go and help me decoct some medicine......"
Li Miao paused for a long time with a gaze on her face.
"Chu Qi, you like him very much, don't you?"
ββ¦β¦ Have it? Hehehe, it's just a little bit. β
Xia Chuqi has always felt that she is a female man, she is not afraid of the sky and the earth, and she can not blink her eyes when the white knife enters and the red knife comes out. However, she is strangely a little timid in terms of feelings.
If the person Li Miao said was Dongfang Qingxuan, she would say, "Of course, it's strange that I don't like such a beautiful man."
But when it came to Zhao Zhu, her heart was strangely constricted, and she was worried. probably really responded to the saying, "The more beautiful things in the world, the more dare not touch them easily". Or rather, she wasn't happy to lose her heart sooner than others. It feels like losing the momentum in a war. Especially the other party is still a feudal prince who can have many high-quality women's resources.
She really doesn't understand the matter of feelings.
Annoying first love, I think she is a special military doctor, but she can't fall in love?!
She had to admit the sad truth. But this is ancient, and there is no Baidu available!
Don't overdo it, she drilled into the house in a perfunctory way.
took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and didn't wait for Li Miao's medicine to come back, but with just a cup of tea, the croton powder she ate had a god-like effect.
The medicine was very strong and menacing, and she didn't give her the face of a doctor at all, her stomach throbbed and throbbed, she ran to the hut again and again, had diarrhea, pulled water, and almost collapsed. In that knife-like pain, Xia Chuqi suddenly regretted it a little.
The ancestors are scumbag, what can they do, what kind of croton to eat, their brains are caught by the door, right? Who else do you want to be pitied? People don't bird you at all, they kill you and live-
When she came out of the hut for the tenth time, she scolded people, and kicked the sesame stalks that were inserted under the windowsill for the purpose of welcoming the New Year. But she was weak now, and instead of kicking the sesame stalk, she kicked it against the wall, and the pain made her foot cramp.
"Damn, they're all here to bully me! Let you bully me! β
Unconvinced, she kicked again, but this time her foot was raised a little higher, and the other foot was unsteady on her feet, and her weak and tired body stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Holyβ"
Seeing that she was about to hit the ground on her ass, her angry two words rushed out.
But before the man fell, his waist was hugged. There is no need to think about it, the familiar fragrance rushes straight to the end of the nose, it smells very good, it is very warm, and she takes two sips, but the anger that she has been holding back for a long time rushes more and more to her heart.
As soon as she turned, she beckoned to him viciously. Pinch, pull, pull, pinch, scratch...... All the bad tricks have been used, and the splash is like a wronged little daughter-in-law.
"It's all your fault! It's okay to raise a litter of little wives, all of them are fighting back and forth, all of them are cautious, all of them can't wait to kill me, and you are the most hateful, knowing that I have diarrhea, I scolded my mother in pain, and I was so uncomfortable that I was about to go to the west to learn the scriptures, and you were still shrunk in the room reading books and playing chess leisurely, just like you didn't see it, how vicious your heart, huh? β
When a person is on fire, he speaks without weight.
She really wanted to fight with him, so that she could vent her anger.
However, she originally thought that he would not allow her to mess around, but he did not fight back, and was beaten by her pair of flower fists and embroidered legs with little strength, without saying a word, until she scolded so much that she couldn't breathe, then stared at her and sarcastically said coldly.
"You're not a little miracle doctor? Can't cure yourself? β
snorted, Xia Chuqi glanced at him and snorted angrily.
"The little miracle doctor wasn't born by his father, isn't he made of meat?"
"Don't you say, no mother?"
Where's that? Choked by his words, Xia Chuqi's anger that was not easy to go down came again, but before she could repeat her old tricks, he pinched two wrists for Shengsheng, one stopped her waist, and then she was picked up in the air and firmly trapped in his arms.
The two of them had an awkward quarrel for several days, and they didn't even see each other. Now that he is holding him in his arms again, Xia Chuqiyi is in turmoil. Especially the father-in-law and the girls who didn't dare to say anything on both sides, their faces were burned red, but they really didn't have the strength to toss anymore.
"Hey, put me down!"
She stared at her with a pair of bronze bell-like eyes.
But he didn't look at him.
After staring at it several times to no avail, she had to soften and hold her voice embarrassedly.
"Hurry up, let me down, I'm going to the hut-"
She felt she had made it clear.
But it was really a loss, as if it had not heard, and went on.
Mom, is this the whole of her?
grabbed his sleeve, and for the sake of grain reincarnation, she completely softened her voice.
"My dear, master, I'm sorry for you, okay, I'm going to stink."
This sentence was too numb and disgusting, and she shook her body first, goosebumps and knots shattered to the ground, and then she leaned on him with a distorted face, and nodded affirmatively.
"It's really, really, it's hard."
Zhao Zhu hugged her and turned around and walked towards the thatched house, shouting again.
"Meizi, come and help her."
Meizi helped her in, but Zhao Zhu didn't leave.
Standing in the wind and snow, his posture was motionless, but he could see Zheng Erbao on the side and sigh. Both are stubborn asses who refuse to give in. I can't see it, I can't leave it. If you see it, you have to bite, if you leave, you have to find it, and you are not willing to take that soft child first, isn't this looking for hardship?
pondered for a while, but Zheng Erbao didn't understand it, but suddenly heard a shout inside.
"Master, the straw paper is gone...... The rivers and lakes are in emergency, send some. β
Erbao's father-in-law coughed and choked, peeking over, but saw that his master's face was black.
"Ten taels."
"You're robbing people?"
"Love or not. Don't just squat. β
The two of them talked about silver across the hut, and the tone of the words was quite harsh, as if they were talking not about the papyrus for wiping their buttocks, but about a large amount of gold and silver treasures. One looked like a bandit, the other like a robber, Zheng Erbao shrunk his neck several times when he heard it, and kept looking around.
Luckily, no one was around.
Otherwise, his grandfather's dignity would be gone.
What's even more sad is that he feels that the dignity of his master and son, sooner or later, he has to be tossed by the girl in the thatched house.
β¦β¦
Another hour later.
Xia Chuqi, who had taken the decoction boiled by Li Miao and ran to the toilet three or two times, was half-lying on the rosewood chair in the warm pavilion of Zhao Zhu's main house weakly, looking at the steaming milky white stew in front of him and was stunned.
This soup looks delicious, but she still has diarrhea? How can you eat it?
Glancing at Zhao Zhu, she hesitated to take a spoon and scoop a spoonful.
As soon as she lowered her head, she took a sip and smacked her mouth, "Why is the soup so slimy?" β
The purpose of her questioning, of course, was to find something to say.
"Peanut stewed pig's trotters, all oiled, not greasy."
The gentleman, who had been cold for a long time, opened his mouth rarely, and answered her with a black face. Xia Chuqi laughed softly, grinned, said three "good" words in a row, nodded again, and sent a spoonful to his mouth, only to hear him lightly add a few words.
"Ate long milk."
"Ahh
One didn't hold back, she squirted, choking and coughing.
"I said, sir, can we not joke while eating? Do you know that people will die? β
"Master said that peanut stewed pig's trotters grow milk, what are you excited about?"
Staring at his serious but very unbeaten cold face, Xia Chuqi's palms were very itchy.
She wanted to beat him.
However, since this master has the interest of evil to rectify her again, then she will cooperate. She doesn't like to be angry with her ancestors every day, she is annoyed to death. Since he wants to move a ladder down the stairs, although it is a little hypocritical and awkward, as long as the two can temporarily reach a strategic alliance and repair the partnership, she doesn't like to care about this bit of.
"Why don't you drink it?" Seeing that she was stunned, Zhao Zhu asked again.
"Do you give money for soup?" She smiled cheaply, her face was a little pale, but in her tone, there was a little bit of peace.
"No need, my lord will reward you." He replied lightly, his tone softened a lot.
"So good, you? Can't believe it either? Putting on a look of disbelief, Xia Chuqi looked at him with a smile, searching for flattering lines in his head, and then fully opened the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, but he didn't expect that for Zhao Zhu, there was no more ruthless, only the most ruthless, and gave her a heart-piercing word.
"The soup is leftover from the morning drink, it's a pity to pour it, it's better to feed you."
"Ahh Does he want to grow milk too?
Choked and coughed again, Xia Chuqi swallowed his saliva several times before he raised his head from the soup cup, wiped his mouth, didn't ask that sentence, only sighed and shook his head.
"Master, you're too lacking in virtue, aren't you? Knowing that I had diarrhea and had to fast, he gave me a whole peanut stewed pig's trotters, and deliberately pretended to be a big-tailed wolf to treat me. Okay, girl, I put up with you, but you are too insincere, and you actually ...... Give me what you have eaten? β
After half-sneering, she snorted again, but saw that his face changed, as if he didn't know that diarrhea needed to fast, and the anger in her heart was a little smaller.
"Okay, you apologize to me. I am the kindest and most loving, and my prime minister can hold the boat in his belly, so I don't care about this little thing with you. It's just that now that I'm physically and mentally damaged, you have to pay me a little silver, right? β
Seeing her mention the silver, Zhao Zhu's face looked a little better.
The tall and graceful body leaned lazily on the chair, he casually picked up the tea cup in front of him, brushed the water surface with the tea lid, took a sip, and asked slowly.
"How much?"
"I'm kind-hearted and don't cheat people, so I'll offset the straw paper money just now."
"Yes." Zhao Zhu's eyebrows raised slightly, and just when Xia Chuqi's eyes lit up, he suddenly put down the teacup and glanced at it coldly, there seemed to be some anger in his eyes, "How much did you earn from the Xie family?" β
When she was talking to Xie, no one was around.
Do you want to guess like that?
Pursed his mouth, Xia Chuqi had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears.
Why is it that things are going on now, she seems to have become this master's money-making machine?
"It's just a hundred taels. For this hundred taels, you see how much I have suffered, can you bear to share it? β
"One hundred taels." Reading lightly, Zhao Zhu moved the chair and sat closer to her, then stared coldly into her eyes, not for a moment, and his tone was even more indescribably cold, "One hundred taels of silver, you sold your grandfather?" β
Sell him a big-headed ghost!
When did she sell him, didn't she just keep a concubine?
Resisting the urge to vomit blood, she stroked her uncomfortable belly, sadly felt that half of the silver was about to fly out again, the roots of her teeth itched and itchy, and she still pretended to be serious "Oh", drooping her face, obediently tame.
"It's not that you stay, you're going to sleep with her, what's the hurry?"
Zhao Zhu's face darkened, "Speak well!" β
"Why didn't I speak properly? Okay, okay, it's okay to divide your fifty taels. Fair enough, right? Xia Chuqi rolled his eyes, softened his voice, raised his hand slightly, and pulled his sleeve, "The silver is obtained, and no one is allowed to go through the old accounts anymore, okay?" β
In a word, it contains a double meaning.
Don't go through old accounts, including the one she went out before.
She knew that this product would definitely be understood, but seeing that he still had a cold attitude, he didn't say anything with a black face, didn't agree, didn't refuse, just seemed to be angry, and she was a little unsure of his thoughts.
It's not that she doesn't want to explain, it's just that the matter of meeting with Zhao Mianze, as well as her purpose for doing this, will involve a lot of things if she is not careful, and it will be widely implicated. First, she didn't want him to feel like she was using him, and second, she didn't want to implicate him if something happened to her. You know, if you do something like revenge, you may lose your head every minute, and he doesn't know that it's the safest.
After thinking about it, she simply continued to lower her head and drink the soup, drinking a "snoring" sound, which sounded particularly hateful. But after only taking a sip, Zhao Zhu's face became even darker, and he snatched the soup cup in front of her.
"Still drinking?"
She looked up in confusion, "What are you doing?" Do you want to drink it too? β
"Your grandfather doesn't drink what people have leftover."
After finishing a sentence coldly, Zhao Jun pushed away the soup cup, turned his head to look at Zheng Erbao, who had been pretending not to exist, and said in an unkind tone, "Clean it up and be fined for half a year." β
"Master...... Father...... Minion...... Wronged......"
Zheng Erbao felt that he was too wronged......
He just used his few experiences of flirting with little girls to tell his master a word, that Chu Qi's body is not comfortable, it is better to stew a soup to make up for it, maybe it will be good for her body recovery, it is completely kind, but why did the two of them fight, and the fire burned vigorously, but it all fell on his instep?
Zheng Erbao went down, and there were only two people left in the room.
There is no soup, and it is not good to drink tea, in fact, diarrhea is not delicious, Xia Chuqi rubbed his hands, a little helpless, and looked at Zhao Zhu for a long time, and beat the drum in his heart for a while. She didn't know what she said, "don't go through old accounts", and he agreed or not.
After sitting for a long time, seeing that he didn't ask why he was with Dongfang Qingxuan today, the stone in her heart fell. That means he doesn't want to pursue her anymore, or maybe he knows something and doesn't want to get involved and cause a lot of trouble.
Relieved, the incident had passed, and she felt the need to make the croton matter clear to him.
"I did the five-bean flour thing, you know this, because I can't get used to that Dongfang Wanyi, and I want her to make a fool of herself. But the matter of Croton really has nothing to do with me. If you think about it, it's impossible for me to instruct the Xie family's girl Ling'er. β
With a sigh of relief, Zhao Zhu's voice was a little cold, and his emotions were difficult to understand.
"I hope it's you."
Xia Chuqi's eyebrows jumped, "Then the Xie family didn't mess with me, am I the kind of person who uses soft knives?" β
Glancing at her lightly, Zhao Zhu did not speak.
Xia Chuqi tilted his face and looked at him for a moment, only to see that his dark eyes were deep, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and his face was expressionless.
"It's good that you don't doubt me. Actually, you shouldn't have killed that Ling'er with a rod before, you can be judged. β
"The affairs of the woman's family, the master is too lazy to ask."
Raising his eyebrows, Xia Chuqi suddenly smiled.
"Also, it's really embarrassing to let a big man see the sky and women mixed together. Master, I think you need a big housekeeper in your backyard to arrange for you like ladies. And what, every once in a while, the three dukes and six secretaries sent it, the emperor was happy to reward it, and the beauties assigned by the mother's menopause arrived......"
Zhao Jun pursed his lower lip tightly, and his eyebrows raised higher, "What does Ah Qi mean?" β
Xia Chuqi deliberately put on a serious face and joked with him, "Master, why don't I come to work part-time?" β
"Part-time?"
Seeing that he raised his eyebrows and obviously didn't understand, she explained with a smile, "It's what it means to be a colleague of a medical officer, and to do this job by the way." β
"What you said, that's the work of Princess Jin."
In one sentence, he said it very slowly, very cold, word by word, as if he was very angry, but he was stunned by Xia Chuqi.
He thinks she's trespassing, right?
After a pause, she rubbed her stiff face, still smiling.
"Just kidding. The three-year covenant is valid, and you can always find a princess to come back......"
With a dangerous squint of his eyes, Zhao Zhu's face darkened.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
It's getting late.
When Xia Chuqi returned to the ear room from the thatched house again, he dragged his somewhat weak legs, and under Li Miao's careful support, he couldn't help but grit his teeth. Who will be the one hiding behind the whole person? Is it Yueyu, is it Dongfang, is it Wei, or is it Xie himself?
Her ancestors.
It's New Year's Day, and it's unlucky that I can't eat properly for two or three days.
"Doctor Chu, you're back."
A lantern was parked at the door of the transept. In the light of the lantern, there are two women's faces. One is Pei'er, a girl with a lantern in her hand; One is the thin Xie Shi.
At this time, the Xie family has already been put in place, not like the one seen in the daytime, wearing a plain partial jacket, and the beaded flowers on his head are also very plain, although he looks not very old, he has a classical lady-type femininity.
I have to say that among Zhao Zhu's three such ladies, Xia Chuqi felt that although this Xie family was not the most beautiful, and in terms of appearance and figure, it was actually inferior to Dongfang Wanyi, but the noble spirit was better than the two.
Not wanting to act weak, she pushed Li Miao's hand away, and looked Xie up and down with a pair of eyes.
"If Mrs. Ru has something to do with Chu?"
Xie stroked his hair, his expression a little uncomfortable.
"The concubine has brought silver to the Chu medical officer, and I am grateful for your life-saving grace today."
Originally, Xia Chuqi felt that she had just suffered it for herself, and she felt a little guilty for taking a hundred taels from others. But after pulling her stomach all day, her sympathy at this time has all been pulled in the pit, and the depression in her stomach is in need of these silver to fill it, so naturally she will not be polite to Xie, and she walked over and spread her hands.
"Thank you Mrs. Ru, then Chu is welcome."
One hundred taels of silver is a lot, and it is a little heavy to carry in your hand. took it and stuffed it into Li Miao's hand, she didn't say anything more, and turned around to enter the house. To be honest, for Zhao Zhu, who is like a lady, she has no dealings with **, every time she sees them, she can't wait to dig a pit and escape, and she can't see them anymore.
"Doctor Chu, the concubine's name is Qingzhi." This heart can be relieved, Qingzhi is in Yuanxiang's Qingzhi. β
Qing Zhi? What does she call her......
Should it have saved her life, this one has taken a fancy to her, right? Want to make a promise?
Xia Chuqi stiffened, glanced back at her, and pulled out a stiff smile.
"Such as Mrs.'s maiden name, it is inconvenient for Chu to be called."
Looking at the ground with low eyebrows, Xie Qingzhi hesitated for a moment before raising her head.
"Doctor Chu, can the concubine come into the house and ask for a cup of tea?"
Sigh! Xia Chuqi sighed secretly, very impatient in his heart, but his tone and attitude were not bad. Glancing at Xie Shi, he refused sincerely and sincerely, "In Chu Qiyan's mansion, the house is shabby, and there is no tea, but I am afraid that the hospitality will not be good like Mrs. Besides, it was already dark at this time, and if I invited my wife into the house, I was afraid that it would attract gossip. β
was directly rejected, and Xie's voice was a little lower, as if he was a little embarrassed.
"Then the concubine is inconvenient to beg for mercy."
"If Madame has something important, just say it here."
Xia Chuqi looked at her with an unchanged expression. First, her current identity is a personable little boy, and it is always good to talk less with women and get into less trouble. Second, she has nothing to do to be courteous or a thief, although she can't figure out the details of the Xie family, but any normal woman will not have a good heart for her rival. Even if she is secretly in love with her on the seventh day of the summer month, she can only have a faint relationship, so as not to help others and get lice, which is not beautiful.
"It's nothing important, then Doctor Chu will rest, and the concubine will go back first."
After Xie Shi finished speaking, he bowed down at her, and led Na Pei'er away.
Xia Chuqi exhaled, held Li Miao's arm, looked at her back and said softly.
"Cousin, I'm so sleepy. Let's go to sleep! β
didn't say anything, Li Miao only stretched out his hand to support her.
This Li Miao is an extremely quiet and cold person, even if she stays by her side, people often ignore her existence. But no matter what she does, Li Miao rarely objects. However, her care is always there, never absent, and always appears when she needs her.
With such a person by his side, Xia Chuqi is very stable in his heart.
Who in this world can understand the calm struggles of others?
And she and Li Miao, on this point, have something in common.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
On the bed in the ear room, Xia Chuqi was lying on his stomach, sideways, on his back, bending, and posing back and forth countless times, but his mind was always clear. The whereabouts of the fool, the key point in Wei Guogong's case, Dongfang Qingxuan's purpose, what Zhao Zhu is thinking, and how should she go next...... There were so many questions in her mind that she hadn't fallen asleep for a long time.
Similarly, in the study room of Chengde Academy, the candle flame is also bright at the moment.
On the table of golden silk sandalwood, in addition to the official documents stacked on the side, there are also a few exquisite dishes. Zhao Zhu's face was half hidden in the shadow of the candle flame, he sat on the carved chair behind the desk, and looked at Yuan You, who was chic and uninhibited with a smile on his face, and Chen Daniu, who was sitting motionless.
"Didn't you say it would arrive tomorrow?"
"I'm afraid you're in a hurry, aren't you?" Yuan You escorted Fan Congliang all the way to Jingshi, but he didn't eat, so he was dragged over by Chen Daniu, who stopped him, to report the situation. At this moment, he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and while he was eating regardless of his image, he raised his handsome eyebrows and eyes, and the corners of his lips were raised to tease.
"Of course, there is another reason, what about me, I still miss my little cousin a little, I said goodbye by the Qinggang River that day, I haven't seen you for a long time-"
"Get out!" Zhao Jun glanced at him coldly.
Yuan Youbei laughed, "Tianlu, you are getting more and more stingy, you want Your Majesty to reward you with women back then, don't you give me a few, and now my cousin can't do it?" β
"Still eating?"
Seeing that Zhao Zhu's face was becoming more and more ugly, Yuan Yu hooked the corners of his lips and coughed, "It's just a joke, take it seriously." Okay, let me tell you the truth, this march, master, I have always been a vegetarian, and my mouth is bitter, thinking about Qin Huai Fengyue, thinking of the two-room concubine in my house, then if there is divine help, the footsteps will naturally be fast. β
He was like a prince and grandson, but he attracted Zhao Zhu with a cold eye.
"Get down to business."
As soon as he said the right thing, Yuan You's smile stopped. After taking a bite of food, he squinted slightly, and his eyebrows became a little more serious, "Fan Congliang has already been escorted to the prison of the Criminal Department, and I don't know the situation of the Jingshi, and I don't know what Your Majesty is going to do?" β
Glancing at Zhao Zhu, Chen Daniu scratched his hair.
"I'm afraid I'll have to be tried by the three law divisions, right?"
"No, it won't." Zhao Jun glanced at them lightly, and suddenly pulled his lower lip meaningfully, "Since Jinyiwei wants to interrogate, let them interrogate." After that, he looked at Yuan You again, "Have you arranged all the things you explained before leaving?" β
Grandpa Yuan picked the dish on the plate with his chopsticks and knocked on the edge.
"Don't worry, I've got you covered. For the sake of safety, I also specially beat Fan Congliang and used my cousin's cheap tricks. β
Furrowing his brows in confusion, Zhao Zhu glanced at him, "What trick?" β
Yuan You raised his eyebrows and smiled very crookedly, "I told him that I have given his whole family the 'groom powder' specially prepared by my cousin, which can strengthen the body and make people can't help but want to be a groom every night." The only disadvantage is that you want to be a groom but you can't ......"
"......" Zhao Zhu paused, "nonsense." β
Yuan You laughed, bit his chopsticks, and smiled that was called an evil.
"Don't say it, this cheap trick is really good, that Fan Congliang was so frightened that his face turned white. It naturally doesn't matter if he lifts it or not, but if his son and grandson don't lift it, then he will be cut off. This person, there will always be a little weakness, no matter how heinous a person is, there are also concerns, so Fan Congliang is not obedient? β
Zhao Tuo glanced at him, didn't say anything more, and turned his gaze to the confused Chen Daniu again.
"Da Niu, this king really didn't see it, you are really not small, dare to refuse marriage?"
"I ...... Your Royal Highness, your subordinates are not bold, and your subordinates don't dare to ......" Chen Daniu smiled with a black face, "It's not that subordinates look down on that Jing, what is Jing?" β
Zhao Jun was helpless and sighed, "Lord Jinghua." β
Chen Daniu nodded violently, "Oh, yes, it's the Jinghua County Lord." It's not that I look down on her, but I do have a family affair in my family, and I decided it when I was young. That girl is from our neighboring village, and I have been marching and fighting outside all these years, and she has never married and waited for me. Your Royal Highness, you said, now I have followed you to make a little fart merit, stained with your light, and was sealed by His Majesty for a fixed peace, and rewarded the house and silver, can't just cock my tail to the sky, do such a thing as having a son without an asshole, and dislike others, right? β
Zhao Jun looked at this subordinate who didn't know how to turn and fell silent.
But Yuan You, who had just returned to Beijing today, was stunned for a moment, so he laughed and almost sprayed rice residue.
"Big Niu, Yanfu is not shallow? You refused? Your Majesty is not angry? β
Chen Daniu drooped his head, his black face was a little swollen and red, "It's hard to say a word." β
It turned out that this victory returned to the court, in addition to rewarding the generals of the Jin Wei Army, this old emperor was no different from other emperors, and he liked to be a matchmaker for his own courtiers. I don't know where the old emperor was blown by the pillow wind last night, and when he was in the morning this morning, he said in public that he would give the emperor's granddaughter Jinghua County Lord to Chen Daniu as his wife.
The name of the lord of Jinghua County is Zhao Runa, the third daughter of the prince Zhao Zhe, who is only sixteen years old, looks like a flower and jade, not to mention, in Beijing is also known as a talented woman, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all fine, and the female red embroidery is all coincidental, and it is very loved by the old emperor.
It stands to reason that such a girl, Chen Daniu, who is not able to know a word in Douda, is still married by the emperor himself, and when she becomes a relative, she will go straight to the sky and become a relative of the emperor, which is simply a good thing that falls from the sky.
But no one thought that this Chen Da Niu was not sensible, and then interceded with the old emperor afterwards, and even knelt on the ground and kowtowed on the spot to refuse, saying that although he joined the army at the age of fifteen, he already had a family affair at home, and he was unwilling to do such a thing as abandoning the chaff, and made the old emperor unable to get off the stage on the spot.
"Tianlu, this matter, heh......" Meaningfully said this, Yuan You didn't continue to talk about Xiayun, just patted Chen Da Niu's shoulder and smiled playfully, "But Brother Da Niu, such a good blessing, no matter how many people ask for it, you missed it, don't regret it in the future?" β
"No regrets. I don't deserve that kind of squeamish county lord, and I don't have the idea of climbing high branches, so I want to wait for the war, buy a few acres of land, raise a few children, and honor the old people with my daughter-in-law and children, and live a good life. β
He said it very truthfully, but Yuan Yu only laughed heartily.
"Brother Niu, you really have you. Well done! Are you stupid or not? Haha......"
I don't know if I understood the meaning of Grandpa Yuan's laughter, Chen Daniu also followed him and seemed to be very happy. It's just that Zhao Jun looked at him for a long time, his eyes deepened, and his eyebrows twisted.
"Da Niu, did you refuse to marry because you were worried about this king?"
Chen Daniu was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head, "Your Highness, although your subordinates are stupid, they also know some things. Can...... The refusal of marriage is really not for anything else, really, I ...... His subordinates are a big man, he has to stand up to the heavens and the earth, and he is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, how can he do such dirty things? Oh, I recognized my relatives when I was bare-assed, but now that I have a future, I can't look down on my daughter-in-law at home? It would be better to let me die headbuttless. β
Being able to say this sentence proves that Chen Daniu looks honest and is indeed not stupid.
Of course, a real fool can't still live well after more than ten years of fighting, and he can still live well, all the way to General Zuo of the Jin Wei Army, hereditary Ding'an. You must know that the Great Yan Dynasty respects the left, and Chen Daniu's position in the army is one level higher than that of Yuan You, so where is he really a simple person?
And the reason why the old emperor gave the marriage, whether it was Zhao Zhu or Yuan You, even Chen Daniu understood it.
First, the old emperor wanted to use marriage to envelop Chen Daniu, a battle-hardened tiger general. Second, it is also for him to support Zhao Mianze, the eldest grandson of the emperor, to cultivate party henchmen. Because Zhao Runa, the lord of Jinghua County, is the sister-in-law of Zhao Mianze's mother. Third, it is also a disguised elevation of Zhao Zhu's power, and the loss of a confidant general is tantamount to missing a right-hand man.
Everyone knows it, but no one breaks it.
After chatting for a while, Grandpa Yuan put down his chopsticks, seemed to be full, and hiccuped.
"Hiccup, Ming'er has seen Your Majesty, shouldn't you also point me to a marriage?"
Zhao Zhu said lightly, "It's possible." β
Grandpa Yuan laughed, "That can't be allowed casually, he can't look down on ordinary people, after all, I am still his own grandson." However, anyone who feels sorry for his daughter, I'm afraid that they don't dare to marry into the Chengguo Mansion, who doesn't know that the beauties in my backyard are about to burst their heads, and then there will be a princess, if you recruit the master to be seen, if you don't recruit people to see, then the days will be sad. β
As soon as he talked about his own romantic history, his eyebrows flew and danced.
Chen Daniu only smiled, only Zhao Zhu glanced at him, "If you go too far one day, your true yang will not be lifted, and there will be no place to cry." β
"Don't be afraid, don't I still have a cousin? She must have a way. β
Deliberately disgusted Zhao Zhu, Yuan You smiled disappreciably, patted the armor of the Jin Weijun General who had not had time to change on his body, stood up, and squinted his eyes, "Tianlu, if it's okay, I'll go back to the house first, the little beauties in my house can't wait." β
"Get out!"
was reprimanded by Zhao Zhu, Yuan You was not angry, turned his head and looked at Chen Da Niu meaningfully, "Brother Da Niu, why don't you go out with you for two drinks and find a place to have fun?" You're a person, it's just a matter of holding your head to play with your life when you're fighting, but now it's too peaceful, what are you still holding when you should enjoy it? β
Chen Daniu's black face was a little embarrassed, he got up and hugged his fists, and saluted him.
"I'm not going...... I have to go back to the camp in a while, and the brothers cooked mutton and waited for me......"
"Gotta got, brother, I'll take the first step and leave."
Yuan You left with a smile on his face, and Zhao Jun glanced at Chen Daniu lightly.
"Da Niu, you have been fighting in the south and north for so many years, and now you have finally got some happy days, go back and bring all your relatives to Beijing, it's time to live some normal people's lives and enjoy the joy of family."
Chen Daniu smiled and scratched his head a little embarrassed.
"In fact, when his subordinates returned to Beijing, they had already sent people back to their hometowns to pick them up. It's just that the journey from Qingzhou Mansion to Jingshi is far away, and it will take a long time, and they drag their families with their families...... I'm afraid it's not that fast. β
Zhao Jun nodded slightly and looked at him again.
"If you need anything, you can ask."
"Thank you, Your Highnessβ" Chen Daniu lifted the hem of his clothes and hurriedly saluted him, his face was full of ordinary and simple happiness, "Now I am a single, it is very convenient to live in the camp, I have food in the camp for food and accommodation, and I can't spend all the money, I have saved it up, and I keep it for my daughter-in-law and children, it's enough, hehe......"
His gaze stayed on his face for a moment, and Zhao Jun slowly raised his hand and waved.
"Go ahead."

The seventh day of the summer was so troubled by croton powder, and it was directly dragged to the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
At the end of the year, it is the time when the whole world celebrates the joy of worshiping the gods and ancestors, and the sound of artillery battles in the capital is sounding from time to time, and the atmosphere of the New Year in the palace of the king of Jin has long been there. However, although there are also customs of the whole family gathering for New Year's dinner and keeping the New Year in this era, because the prince of Jin has to go to the palace to go to the palace for a family banquet to keep the old year according to the etiquette system every New Year, the people in the palace are placed in various courtyards.
Zhao Zhu didn't have a concubine, so he still took the eunuch girl and went by himself.
As soon as the gentlemen left, no one gathered, and although there were red lanterns hanging everywhere in the house, it still looked a little deserted.
In the transept of Chengde Temple.
At the beginning of the summer, Qi's body was uncomfortable, and his mood was also very low these days.
In the evening, she and Li Miao had a reunion dinner, put a few candles, poured several glasses of wine on the corner, knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times, which can be regarded as a rough worship of the nearly 300 souls of the Xia and Li families.
It's still snowing outside.
The two of them sat on the edge of the kang table by the window, and also took a few sips of wine, and with a little wine on their faces, they both had some emotion - now there are only two of them left in this world.
"Chu Qi!"
Meizi's little girl was very noisy, and before anyone entered the door, the voice arrived first.
As soon as she entered the house, she walked up to her with her hands behind her back, smiling, and shaking her head, so that a butterfly folded out of gold leaf on her head also flew with her.
"Guess what's good I've got?"
Xia Chuqi stretched out his head to look behind her, "Found the silver?" β
Meizi pursed her lips with a smile and suddenly held the thing behind her in front of her with both hands.
"Look!"
It was a delicate gold-painted red velvet brocade box, and when the lid was opened, there was a faint fragrance.
"Chu Qi, this is the Erbao tolerance Xiao Fangzi brought out of the palace quickly, and the master will reward you for playing-"
It was a southern red bead, delicate and oily, red as a flame, and a small statue of Zhong Kui was carved on each bead. Meizi said that the queen mother specially sent someone to Yunnan to customize, the prince and the princess each a string, by the monk to open the light, can ensure the coming year safe and smooth.
Very exquisite southern red beads.
It's a pity that she hangs on her hands, she has thin hands, and she wears a men's dress, which looks a little nondescript.
Meizi looked at her and sneered, "Looks good, right?" Chu Qi, although I can't go back to my house today, I think I'm thinking about you. β
Xia Chuqi rewarded her with a hygienic eyeball and didn't say a word.
In the past two days, he has treated her very well, eating, playing, and dressing, and nothing has been left behind. But the sentence "Princess Jin's work", even if she is open-minded, she is more or less unhappy. originally thought that his "favor" was going to make her an innocent lying gun in the target of everyone. However, I don't know if it's a matter of getting used to it, or if Ling'er's death has a deterrent effect, although the women in the backyard are envious, jealous and hateful, but no one came to look for her. And because her body is uncomfortable, her legs and feet are weak, she doesn't like to move when she lies on the bed, and her life is peaceful.
Seeing that she was playing with the beads and didn't speak, Meizi sat down again and pouted.
"Otherwise, let's go to the Confucius Temple to see the lanterns, shall we? Let me tell you, it's lively outside, I want to go out to play, but when Sister Yueyu went out, she told no one to run around. Chu Qi, if I go out with you, I will say that I am with you, and I will not blame you, and Sister Yueyu will not say anything about me, okay? β
Visit the Confucius Temple and see the lanterns......
Well, to say that the seventh day of the summer is also a bit curious.
It's just that......
First, the body is really weak and needs to recuperate, and secondly, I can't raise any interest in playing.
After hesitating, she shook her head.
"Still not going. It's late tonight, sleepy! β
"Go, Chu Qi, I want to go see the lanterns, but it's lively......"
Meizi grabbed her arm and shook it vigorously, like a coquettish little girl. It can be said that seeing that Xia Chuqi still didn't move, she was still deflated, and suddenly collapsed on the edge of the kang table, took her tea to eat, pouted and was unhappy, the round and chubby face, red and watery, like a fairy peach, Xia Chuqi couldn't help but be happy.
"Come on, go out and play, it's up to you."
"Wow, Chu Qi, you're so good."
"I'm sacrificing my life to accompany a gentleman, shouldn't you say-"
Before she could finish her sentence, there was a sudden shrill sound outside.
"Hey, master, take your time."
