Chapter 36: The Quarrel

Although Xiangguo Temple is named Xiangguo, it is not a temple with flourishing incense in the capital of Daming.

The White Horse Temple next to it is famous because of a famous monk who is admired by the emperor, the monks who practice in the White Horse Temple are not only profound in Buddhism, but also outstanding in appearance, quite have the taste of a high monk, and are very trusted by the elite class in the capital, so the incense of the White Horse Temple is far more prosperous than the Xiangguo Temple.

On the way, Xiao Zhuohua explained to Jiang Luyao, "The vowel master of Xiangguo Temple is my master's own brother, and when he was in Jiangnan, he once debated the scriptures with my brother, saying that my brother has Huigen, and he wants to cross my brother to become a monk several times." ”

"Cousin Xiao didn't beat him out?"

Let the ambitious Xiao Ruihua become a monk? It's a real loss to the vowel master to figure it out.

"It's always my uncle, it's not good to be too unreasonable to him, I know that my brother is an attachment to Hongchen, no matter how he persuades, my brother will not become a monk."

As soon as the words turned, Xiao Zhuohua sighed softly, "My brother's ambition since he was a child, in addition to being a member of the first class and guarding the people for the saint, wants to marry a confidante as his wife, and share the peaceful and prosperous world. ”

"My brother is not as ambitious as Cousin Xiao, and now he has worked hard for a talented woman, and he didn't sleep all night last night."

"Confused."

Xiao Zhuohua blurted out, but later reflected, pinched Jiang Luyao, lowered his head to hide his distress, and spit on him: "Or your brother?" You're going to let him suffer? ”

Bumps on the road, Jiang Luyao and Xiao Zhuohua leaned together, "Seeing that he must be admitted to the show to marry a confidante, how dare I talk too much, if I let my sister-in-law run away, won't my brother regret it for the rest of his life?" ”

"You still say!"

Xiao Zhuohua couldn't wait to tear Jiang Luyao's mouth, Jiang Luyao laughed, no need for Xiao Zhuohua to express her position, looking at her distressed Jiang Minjin's appearance, she shouldn't want to go to the prince's mansion to be a side concubine.

As long as Xiao Ruihua also has this thought, Jiang Luyao can prepare for the wedding of her stupid brother.

After making a fuss for a while, Xiao Zhuohua asked softly, "Why don't you ask?" The wound on his face can't be hidden. ”

"My brother's injury has been seen by the doctor, and it is not a big problem, just a skin injury. He often makes trouble outside, saying that there is nothing to do, and my mother will not be too careful. ”

Xiao Zhuohua took a reassuring pill, and there was a trace of sweetness in his heart, if he didn't enter the door before he made his mother-in-law hate it, it was really bad, and that fool was not so stupid.

"I just saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in disguise in the bookstore, and when I saw that he had a pitiful cough, I suggested that he use a cough suppressant, but I didn't expect it to attract so many rights and wrongs...... The crown princess is the daughter of His Majesty's sister-in-law, and the emperor dares to call him uncle, and now His Royal Highness the prince also has a lot of wives, although there are not many women serving him, but I am not happy to live under the nose of the crown princess. ”

"Cousin Xiao, I understand."

"I won't hide it from you, it doesn't matter if I have no face or no shame." Although Xiao Zhuohua blushed, he still bravely raised his white swan-like neck, "If you haven't met your brother, it's not impossible to go to the Prince's Mansion." Although I am used to seeing the love between my parents, I don't necessarily have to find a lover for my brother's future. In the future, when the crown prince ascends the throne, I will be a concubine, and there is a precedent for Chen Ajiao after the abolition of the Han Dynasty...... How could I not have a chance? ”

"But I just met him, I was moved, and then I competed with a group of women for favor, which is really not what I wanted."

Xiao Zhuohua couldn't forget the moment when Jiang Minjin rushed over to protect her, knowing that His Royal Highness the Prince of Lu Dao was interested in her, he was still willing to do his best to protect her, and didn't ask or say anything.

He didn't say it, but Xiao Zhuohua was even more moved. "I'll tell my brother that I'll ignore His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Let me take the liberty of asking." A glimmer of light flashed in Jiang Luyao's eyes, and she asked tentatively, "How sure is Cousin Xiao for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to give up?" Although my father is the registered son-in-law of the Hou Mansion, I don't hide it from my cousin Xiao, I am trying to make my father not a son, and the second room will definitely move out of the Yongning Marquis Mansion in the future, and the title of Yongning Marquis has nothing to do with my father and brother. However, even if his father is a son, he is far inferior to His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

The Jiang family dared to go to the Xiao family to propose marriage after the prince expressed his position, but let His Royal Highness the prince dispel the idea, the Jiang second master's family did not have such a great ability to do it.

Could it be that Xiao Ruihua has a way?

Jiang Luyao has been thinking about how to make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince give up since she knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had taken a fancy to Xiao Zhuohua...... Until now, she hadn't thought of a proper way to do it.

"My brother said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be very busy in the near future, and he has no time to pay attention to the personal affairs of his children, after all, in the heart of His Royal Highness the Prince, inheriting the country is still the most important." Xiao Zhuohua smiled proudly, "It's not that I'm boasting, Cousin Jiang, my brother is a very capable person, he can make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince give up willingly, I have also seen a lot of talents, but there is no city government with my brother, he knows how to take advantage of the situation, and he also knows when to make a move." ”

Jiang Luyao looked at it left and right, "We all have a good brother, and we are all good sisters." ”

Xiao Zhuohua's thoughts, Jiang Luyao understands.

Since she guessed that Xiao Ruihua didn't show up when Jiang Minjin was beaten...... How could she not have an opinion of him?

She can't blame Xiao Ruihua for being selfish, but she can't untie the knot, if they get married, will Xiao Ruihua sacrifice his father and brother in exchange for some benefits? Or do you have a choice to help your father-in-law's family?

Jiang Luyao is still in the boudoir now, so she can naturally take care of her father and brother at all times, once she gets married, it will not be so convenient anymore, so she hopes that her future husband can help her, instead of weighing the gains and losses.

She can change Xiao Ruihua after marriage, it takes a process to change a person, a person like Xiao Ruihua, the process of change will be very slow, in case something happens to her father and brother during the period of changing him, she is not in a hurry to rescue, what should I do?

The most important thing is that Xiao Ruihua's ambitions are too ambitious, and she is afraid of ...... I'm afraid that I won't be able to keep up with him, and the brighter the future, the more troubles, and the greater the chance of fighting with others.

Jiang Luyao only wants a rich and peaceful happiness, and she doesn't want to live a life full of ups and downs, and it is easy to capsize if she doesn't get it right on the cusp.

It's nothing for my brother to marry Xiao Zhuohua, after all, there is a reason for marrying a husband in the Ming Dynasty, once she marries Xiao Ruihua, the second room is too deeply involved with the Xiao family, and Xiao Ruihua's political enemies will target his father and brother.

Where can the father and brother who already love to cause trouble deal with it?

Jiang Luyao does not deny her appreciation for Xiao Ruihua...... It's a pity that the gap between them is difficult to bridge.

After arriving at Xiangguo Temple, Jiang Luyao followed Xiao Zhuohua into the temple gate, and a monk in Tsing Yi approached and looked at Jiang Luyao for a long time, "The donor's marriage has been chaotic, and he is deeply trapped in the peach blossom disaster, why don't you ask the poor monk to help you make up for it and measure the bad luck?" ”

When did monks also start soliciting fortune telling?

Xiao Zhuohua dragged Jiang Luyao and said in a low voice: "Xiangguo Temple has been a little difficult recently, don't care." ”

"Oh." Jiang Luyao smiled at the diligent monk, "There are a few peach blossoms, but they are all high and do not belong to me." ”

And it's all rotten peach blossoms...... None of them she was willing to accept.

The monk in Tsing Yi smiled a little stiffly, and turned around to find another destined person.

At the door of a secluded meditation room, Jiang Luyao saw Xiao Ruihua and could see that he hadn't slept all night, but compared with his brother's fatigue, his eyes were very bright, and there was a raging ambition hidden in his eyes......

This is a conspirator and a brilliant politician.

"Little sister, come in with me to see Brother Chen, he is seriously injured."

The moment Xiao Ruihua saw Jiang Luyao, he instinctively showed a touch of wariness, although it disappeared very quickly, Jiang Luyao could see that he was not only surprised by his arrival, but also did not welcome it very much in his heart.

"After getting news from my brother, I went out immediately, thanks to Cousin Jiang who sent me all the way......" Xiao Zhuohua felt that there was a problem between his brother and Jiang Luyao, and reminded in a low voice: "You forgot to make an appointment with Cousin Jiang today?" ”

Xiao Ruihua apologized to Jiang Luyao: "Because of Brother Chen's injury, I am a little busy and dizzy, and I hope that Cousin Jiang will not be strange." ”

"Xiao Xie Yuan is polite, I just happened to give Cousin Xiao a ride, since you are very busy, then I will visit another day." Jiang Luyao bent her knees and said estrangely: "I won't delay Xiao Jieyuan's business today, besides, what I want to say has already been known from Cousin Xiao...... As long as Xiao Jieyuan is firm, my father will follow my brother's wishes. ”

"Little sister, you go and help me take care of Brother Chen first, he is in a very bad condition, you must do your best to save him."

"It's good."

Xiao Zhuohua nodded to Jiang Luyao and walked into the meditation room quickly.

It seems that her medical skills are not just a simple way to know a few prescriptions, Jiang Luyao suddenly has a feeling of marrying an all-round sister-in-law, Jiang Minjin will live a very happy life in the future, it's okay, silly brother needs an all-round lady.

She was angry, she distanced herself from him.

Xiao Ruihua had the heart to explain, but he didn't know where to start, obviously his original choice was the most correct and beneficial, in front of her, why did he feel that he was a little selfish?

"Cousin Jiang and slow ......"

Seeing that Jiang Luyao was sincerely leaving, Xiao Ruihua was even more uncomfortable in his heart, "I did have something to do that day......

After the prince of Qin rushed to Xiangguo Temple, he saw Jiang Luyao and Xiao Ruihua standing under the plane tree to talk in detail, Jiang Luyao had her back to him, so he couldn't see how 'shy' she was at this time, he could only see the affection in Xiao Ruihua's eyes......

What belongs to him is about to be snatched away.

From childhood to adulthood, there was only what he didn't want, and no one dared to rob him of his things...... No one can take away what he has.

As long as it's his, he will hold it tightly in his hands.

The sound of Teng Teng's footsteps, Jiang Luyao didn't care about it, but Xiao Ruihua's face changed, "Prince of Qin? ”

He first thought of Zhao Duoze's identity as the son, and then thought of why Zhao Duoze came to Xiangguo Temple, and thought of whether Zhao Duoze would compete with him...... When he thought of Zhao Duoze's angry appearance, it was for Jiang Luyao, Jiang Luyao had already been picked up and snatched away by Zhao Duoze!

Xiao Ruihua stretched out his arm in vain, but he couldn't catch a trace of Jiang Luyao's clothes, and a trace of bitterness appeared on his lips, it turned out that he had thought too much, and Zhao Duoze came to Xiangguo Temple as if he was here to 'catch the traitor'.

"You let go of me!"

Jiang Luyao was tightly fixed in Zhao Duoze's arms in his arms, although there were no pilgrims in Xiangguo Temple, but it was always in ancient times in broad daylight, the influence was not good, I originally wanted to be tougher, but when I saw Zhao Duoze's tight handsome face and a jealous look, I didn't dare to stimulate him anymore, "I can't run away, you let go of me, okay?" ”

Zhao Duoze looked sideways, her delicate and silky cheeks were slightly red, knowing that it was not because of shyness, but because she was angry, and her black eyes were full of anger and a hint of helplessness.

The naughty boy generally tested Jiang Luyao's bottom line, approached her cheek and wanted to tease her, but who knew that it was close, and he couldn't help but want to kiss it...... Jiang Luyao really dodged with a sideways face.

"Have you had enough?"

"Are you qualified to say that?"

Zhao Duoze hid the Qi Nian in his heart, hid in the corridor where no one was moving, put down Jiang Luyao, supported the wall with both arms, trapped her, and was jealous, "Who are you smiling at so sweetly?" If I don't come, do you want to stay and fly with Xiao Ruihua? ”

"Who are you? Do you care about me? Jiang Luyao supported the shoulders of the prince of Qin with both arms, not letting him get too close to him, but unfortunately the place was too small, Jiang Luyao couldn't dodge, and the hot breath exhaled by Zhao Duoze hit his cheeks, "Do you use this to snatch every woman?" ”

“……”

Zhao Duoze was first angry by Jiang Luyao's words, and then stunned for a moment, could it be that she knew her plan to snatch Xu Ying?

Princess Qin didn't know about such a private matter, how could she know about it?

"As a man, you can only snatch women and ruin my reputation, and your behavior makes me look down on me the most."

Jiang Luyao took advantage of the moment when he was stunned, raised her foot and kicked it fiercely, and went straight to him three ways......

Zhao Duoze was prepared for Jiang Luyao's counterattack, the person in his arms was not an obedient weak woman, he would not give up without struggling, he categorically did not expect Jiang Luyao to dare to kick his life...... twisted his waist and flashed a fatal kick, and his life was saved, but he was kicked in the lower abdomen, and it hurt a lot.

"In these years, chastity and etiquette have been very harsh on women, and you are deliberately bullying people, which is too bad and despicable."

Jiang Luyao didn't feel that Zhao Duoze was being bullied, and she didn't feel sorry for him at all, holding his lower abdomen and snorting, and said mockingly: "For your own selfish desires and ruining people's reputation, you are the worst man I have ever seen." ”

"Are you coming back......" Zhao Duoze rubbed his lower abdomen with one hand, and wanted to drag Jiang Luyao back with the other, she was kicked by herself, why was she so angry?

For the sake of her reputation, Zhao Duoze has already found a place where no one is.

"I look down on you!"

“……”

If she knew that she had the intention to rob Xu Ying and take revenge on Xu Guangli, she would be even more angry.

Zhao Duoze rubbed his lower abdomen and asked himself, although sometimes he has no one in his eyes and a lot of bad thoughts, but he is not the worst man.

If he didn't have vigilance and intrigues, how could he live comfortably in the palace? If he is not obsessed with avenging the Yang family, how can he be worthy of being the grandson of the Yang family? The son of the concubine?

Jiang Luyao walked very fast, but her speed was not as fast as Zhao Duoze who was running, and when she heard the sound of running behind, Jiang Luyao turned around and stopped, glaring at the comer: "What are you going to do?" Didn't I make it clear? I won't marry you, you have a lot of trouble, I have a father and brother who cause trouble, you chase me hard, it will only make your future road more and more difficult and troublesome......"

"You also say that I am in trouble, and your little things are not a problem."

"You ......" Jiang Luyao's eyes widened, "My father is not the prince of Yongning Hou, don't you look like a jealous husband, okay?" It doesn't matter to you who I meet, and what about your son's demeanor? Don't you think you're rude? ”

"Yaoyao, believe it or not, I'll go into the palace to find the emperor and ask for the title of prince for your father."

Seeing that Jiang Luyao's face became ugly, Zhao Duoze had the pleasure of getting back a city, "It's difficult for others, it's just a matter of words for me, Yaoyao, don't forget, I'm the prince of Qin." ”

"What else do you have to praise besides your identity as the prince of King Qin?" Jiang Luyao's eyes looked up and down for evaluation, which made Zhao Duoze angry and annoyed, and his eyes were shining with a fierce light, "You look down on me?" ”

Although Jiang Luyao also said that she looked down on herself, Zhao Duoze thought that as long as she didn't rob women and bad women, Jiang Luyao would feel that he was also a good man worth entrusting for life.

As long as he behaves better, Jiang Luyao will change his opinion of himself.

Jiang Luyao also had a trace of jealousy in her heart about the hideous face of King Qin's prince, and she was afraid that he would do something to hurt herself, but if she didn't make it clear now, the entanglement between them would only get deeper and deeper.

If Zhao Duoze enters the palace to ask for a decree, with the emperor's favor for him, he will not deliberately embarrass him on who is the son of the Marquis of Yongning, and at this time, the second master Jiang is the named son-in-law, and the name of the prince of Yongning is justified.

"Stripping the identity of the prince of Qin, literary talent, martial arts, status, and rights, which one do you have?" Jiang Luyao raised her chin, with a wisp of contempt in her eyes, "If it weren't for the death of all the men of the Yang family, and the emperor wouldn't be guilty of the Yang family, do you think you have today?" My brother also likes to cause trouble, and my father often makes mistakes, but they are not confused in the big truth, and you want me to look down on you...... Don't die. ”

"Have you ever wondered what you're supposed to do in this life? Your own strength is not enough, and you still want to compete with Princess Qin? ”

"You say I can't compare to Princess Qin?"

Jiang Luyao took two steps back and nodded, "For now, everything about you is in her hands." ”

"Ha Luha, it's so funny, I'm going to be mastered by that woman? Do you know that I said one thing and two things in the Qin Palace? I made the woman's son kneel, and they didn't dare to stand! ”

"You seem to have everything, but you have nothing except the identity of the prince of Qin and the emperor's pity and guilt for the Yang family. The emperor's mercy and guilt will disappear one day, even if you become the king of Qin, with your current ability, you can't compare to the sons raised by Princess Qin herself. ”

Zhao Duoze swung his fist and hit Jiang Luyao directly, his eyes were red, "Don't think I care about you, you can say that I am nothing......"

Jiang Luyao saw the fist coming, she couldn't hide, and closed her eyes, "It's useless for a man to beat a woman out of anger!" ”

She took the punch.

The fist was retracted an inch from the tip of her nose, and Zhao Duoze was not angry with her, but was reluctant to hit her...... No one had ever said these things to him, no one dared to quarrel with him, and he grew up alone among his servants...... Although his grandmother loves him, his grandmother just follows him in everything and doesn't let Princess Qin calculate his status, and his grandmother also loves other grandsons, he is not the only one.

He had always been a man, with no friends, only enemies, and a group of submissive subordinates.

The author has something to say: they start with intrigues and quarrels, hehe, in quarrels, reflection, introspection, change. In the next chapter, Cousin Xiao vs. Shizi Ye belongs to a man's contest.
