Chapter 259: Father and Brother

At this time, Gao Zhen also came to his father, King Guangping, and accepted his admonition.

The king of Guangping asked him with some hatred: "What is the quarrel for?" Where did Sister Xiu offend you? You actually lost your temper at the girl and threw things, which is really promising! ”

Gao Zhen bowed his head and was silent, and after a long while, he whispered what happened. In fact, he couldn't figure out why Zhao Xiu would refuse the gift he gave? Obviously, I was quite happy when I collected the cloak before, but now it's just a hand stove and a hand tube, what can it be?

Don't you know that after the king of Guangping heard this, he hated iron more and more: "Just for this little thing? She has concerns in her heart, and you dispel her worries, which is, what is there to be angry about? ”

Gao Zhen was silent, and after a while, he said, "She asked me to leave things for the future princess to ......."

King Guangping was a little speechless, and rubbed his forehead: "Are you angry about this?" ”

Gao Zhen didn't understand, didn't this make people angry? He liked her, and he only wanted her to be his future princess, how could she say such a thing?

Although he was indeed too impulsive at the time, he now thinks about it, and he doesn't know what happened to him at that moment, he just felt the blood surging up his head, and his hand waved out.

King Guangping pondered and meditated, and for a while he didn't know how to persuade his son, and finally he chose such a statement: "You must know that women are sometimes duplicitous. It's one thing in her heart, but it's another thing when she says it. For example, your mother always told me. Don't give her too much. On her birthday, I asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make her new jewelry and clothes. She always said that it was too extravagant, but she didn't like that. But if you think about it, when was she really upset to receive something from me? Does she really not like the clothes and jewelry? ”

Gao Zhen looked back and had to admit that in fact, his mother still liked the things his father gave him. From childhood to adulthood, he could see her carefully collecting every piece of jewelry given by her father. And clothes. Even old clothes would be washed and ironed by her. Then carefully put it away, every year on June 6, it must be taken out to bask in the sun, and then re-washed and ironed for collection. Although the mother always said. Royalty should not act extravagantly. The effect of the upper and lower lines is not good for the bottom, so whether it is food and clothing, it should be as frugal as possible, and it should be simple and dignified. But she always liked the jeweled clothes given by her father, and often wore them in private, only when she was meeting guests or going out. will be replaced. Perhaps, this is also an example of a woman's duplicity?

Could it be that Zhao Xiu is the same? She refused to accept the gift. In fact, it means that you like to receive gifts? Let him leave things to the future princess, in fact, this is not the original intention? Gao Zhen always felt that this idea was a bit problematic. Zhao Xiu seemed to be straightforward in front of him, if he really liked his gift, he would definitely accept it, and then return the gift afterwards, feeling that it was "even", and no one owed anyone a favor. He also liked what she did, because she usually made him new clothes, even if he said "just wear it", but he always wore it on his body......

Hey? So? Could he also be a duplicitous person?

Gao Zhen was shocked, and the expression on his face became even more blank.

King Guangping couldn't see his son's expression, and when he saw that he didn't say anything, he was a little depressed: "Talking, why did you suddenly quiet down?" ”

Gao Zhen didn't want to face that possible answer, and decided to expose the matter: "Father, I shouldn't have quarreled with Sister Zhao, but now it's all arguing...... What am I going to do? ”

King Guangping thought that he had figured it out and realized his "mistake", and smiled with satisfaction: "It's very simple, since you know that you are wrong, admit your mistake to her and make amends." Speak kindly and be sincere, Sister Xiu'er is actually a sensible child, and she won't bother with you for a little thing. ”

"Do you want me to admit my mistake?" Gao Zhen was a little tangled. He really didn't feel that he shouldn't be angry, Zhao Xiu suddenly stopped accepting his gifts, and was going to be separated from him, and what did he say about the future princess, why couldn't he be angry? Zhao Xiu hadn't explained to him why she did this.

King Guangping sighed and shook his head: "Idiot! Whoever is at fault in the first place, isn't it wrong for you to lose your temper at the girl? Isn't it wrong that you dropped something and scared people? If you say you're not at fault, then go out, and your father doesn't bother to teach you. ”

If it was a tantrum and throwing things, Gao Zhen admitted that he was wrong. This is not only rude, but also, as Zhao Xiu said, it is easy to cause open flames to burn things. Thinking about it like this, he felt that he really should make amends and admit his mistakes.

Seeing his son's obedience, King Guangping was a little more satisfied, and added: "After the reparation is over, you can go with her to Mrs. Zhao to say a few good words in front of Mrs. Zhao to please her family, and then give her some gifts and coax her to be good, and this matter will be revealed." ”

Gao Zhen was surprised: "But she refuses to accept my gifts, how can I send her anything more?" ”

King Guangping said angrily: "It's me, and when I see someone giving me expensive gifts one after another, it's still for no reason, I have to mumble in my heart." Since Sister Xiu'er is a good child, she naturally won't accept it cheekily regardless of the preciousness of things. If she won't accept it, you should think of a reason to convince her to accept it, or find another good time to give it away. If you want me to say, you are also too anxious, you have already sent a cloak before, today you have sent paint, borrowed a picture book, in a few days, she will come to me to study, if it is too cold, you give her a hand stove, she will not feel anything. When the weather is colder, when you see her come out in that finch cloak, you give her the hand tube, not to mention that it was specially made by someone, only saying that it was an old thing from the past, can she still ask questions? If you are really worried that she will refuse, you can ask her to do a little favor, and then give her the thing as if you were returning the favor, and she will be embarrassed not to accept it. ”

Gao Zhen was annoyed in his heart, he knew that this was the case, he should have asked Zhao Xiu for a plum painting, and then gave her the handstove as a return gift, and the painting he asked for could be framed and hung in his own room. Appreciate it every day, how can there be such a result now?

King Quang Binh took the opportunity to educate his son: "Actually, if you have the heart to please people. You don't have to send anything valuable. Blindly giving the valuable, but falling inferior. You should pay attention to what she likes and needs, and give it just right, that's the best policy. Even if it's just a flower or a page of poetry, as long as it fits the other party's mind. It's more pleasing to the other than any jeweled costume. Look at the things I gave your mother, even if it was just a bunch of wildflowers picked on the way back from the city, did she ever dislike it? There can be for jewelry and fine clothes. Just throw that wildflower aside? ”

Of course not. Gao Zhen has seen his mother Zhong put the wild flowers given by his father in her hair several times, matching them with gold beads and jade, or carefully inserting them in vases, just like the rare flowers picked from the imperial garden. Sometimes it's even more precious.

Gao Zhen somewhat understood. He thought of the moon season in the glass flower room mentioned by Zhao Xiu, and he already had an idea in his heart.

When King Guangping saw that his son was taught, he also figured it out, and he was secretly relieved in his heart. is really a stupid son, he taught his son how to please girls, how can it be more tiring than when he coaxed his wife?

After having lunch with his father, Gao Zhen returned to Qifeng Pavilion and had not yet entered the front hall. saw Yanyu hurriedly come and report to him: "The little marquis of the Zhao family is here, and he is waiting for the prince in the hall." ”

Gao Zhen was puzzled. How could Zhao Wei come to him at this time? Zhao Wei acts on weekdays, and he has always been very particular, and when he does something, there are rules. This time it is said that he accompanied his grandmother Mrs. Zhao and her sister to have lunch, and then talk about the time of homely words, and after a while, Mrs. Zhao will take a lunch break, and he will go back to the Songbai House where he lives, and will come to Qifeng Pavilion, whether it is borrowing books, discussing homework or practicing martial arts, it is at least a matter of the future.

Gao Zhen entered the front hall suspiciously, and saw Zhao Wei sitting on the first chair on the left side of the main seat, his eyes staring straight ahead, the light in the hall was dim, and he couldn't see what expression he had on his face, but Gao Zhen subconsciously felt that the other party seemed to have some bad intentions.

However, after Zhao Wei saw him, he took the initiative to stand up, smiled and said hello, and it didn't look like there was anything unusual. Gao Zhen felt that maybe he was thinking too much, or maybe Zhao Wei heard about the quarrel between him and Zhao Xiu and came out for his sister?

Sure enough, after chatting a few words, Zhao Weiruo said unintentionally: "When I was eating, I heard that my sister had a quarrel with Shizi, and I hope Shizi won't blame her for being rude." That girl, straightforward and simple-minded, sometimes offended people without knowing it, and my grandmother and I were worried about her. Originally, she said that she had grown up in the past two years, and she was more sensible, but I didn't expect to make the prince angry again today, I made a compensatory statement to the prince for my sister, and I hope that the prince will not worry about her. ”

Gao Zhen hurriedly said: "You are too foreign to say this. It's just a little quarrel, it's mine, and I shouldn't be angry at her anyway. I was about to make amends to her, but you made amends for her, and I was ashamed. Besides, what kind of friendship do we have? Don't say that I annoyed Sister Zhao, even if she annoyed me, I wouldn't really be angry with her, let alone make her apologize? ”

Zhao Wei paused and said with a smile: "The prince is reasonable. I think the three of us have known each other since childhood, and they are like siblings, I love my sister on weekdays, even if I have a quarrel, I will never get angry with her, and I want to have the same heart as me in the next life. For the little sister, we naturally don't care a lot about being brothers. You say, don't you? ”

Gao Zhen didn't want to say yes, how could he be the same as Zhao Wei? Zhao Wei and Zhao Xiu are brother and sister, but he is not Zhao Xiu.

He was silent.

Zhao Wei waited for a long time, and didn't wait for his affirmative answer, suddenly his face sank, and he said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I have been studying hard in the house these days, and I haven't cut my fists and feet with the son of the world for many days." This time the wind and snow have dispersed, but it seems to mean to see the sunshine. I wonder if the prince is interested in moving his hands and feet? ”

Gao Zhen was a little puzzled, how could he suddenly have this intention: "Now?" I've just had lunch, I'm afraid it's not suitable, right? ”

Zhao Wei smiled and said, "Then set another time?" It's just that I don't know when the son of the world will be free? ”

Gao Zhen wondered in his heart, so he had to say: "Then how about the second quarter of the first day of Shen Chu (half past three in the afternoon)?" ”

"That's it." Zhao Wei stood up, arched his hand, and turned to leave.

Gao Zhen looked at his departing back, and suddenly had some foreboding. (To be continued......)
