Chapter Forty-Nine: Blood Test

The Nine Emperors' face turned red, and he stumbled: "It's not... It's not because of Huai Jin, this... It's..."

He stomped his feet angrily at this nervous stuttering, and was about to cry in a hurry.

"This is indeed a wool cloak!" Song Huaijin bowed his head and saluted:

"However, this wool is made of Nanyang Australia. Exquisite wool imported from the continent.

Moreover, the pattern on this cloak was painted by His Royal Highness Jiu after finding the best embroiderers in Anling and studying them for a month.

The painting is a phoenix nirvana, and His Royal Highness the Ninth said, 'The emperor will always be great in his heart, and he will always be like a phoenix who can overcome setbacks and be reborn in Nirvana'! ”

As soon as Song Huaijin spoke, the Western envoy immediately became calm, and jumped down the steps excitedly and went straight to the woolen cloak, and said in English:

"This wool is so pure, it really comes from Australia. continental? The best wool has always been abundant there.

It's a pity that transportation is really a big problem, and what can be transported is more valuable than gold, and this cloak is really priceless! Can I take a look? ”

Lu Jinao was confused, frowned and looked at the Western envoy: "What are you talking about?" Don't you see my father still sitting there? Why are you so unruly?! ”

The Western envoy understood Chinese, but he couldn't speak well, rolled his eyes at Lu Jinao, did not say anything, and just looked at Song Huaijin excitedly.

The ministers looked at Lu Jinao's expression changed slightly, this prince is really unlearned, stupid.

The prince's adviser's face immediately darkened, he knew English, and he also knew that Westerners were informal, when would the prince be able to speak with a little brain?

Isn't this a blatant disgrace to the royal family?

Song Huaijin smiled politely and replied in English: "Yes, but this is a gift from the emperor's son, and you have to get the emperor's permission first." ”

Emperor Pingchu looked at Song Huaijin with some shock, although he didn't believe the rumors in the capital, but Song Huaijin was spread like that outside, he had to be careful.

But before he could speak, he was already impressed by Song Huaijin's courage and eloquence.

She dared to openly defend the Nine Emperor Princes among the civil and military officials, and she was neither humble nor arrogant.

She could communicate with Western envoys in English, and she was completely polite.

This is something that many palace ministers and even Taixue teachers can't do.

Song Huaijin is so different from the rumors!

The Western envoy's eyes were full of excitement, and he spoke a long paragraph of extremely fast English to Emperor Pingchu, and finally said in broken Chinese: "Is it okay?" ”

Song Huaijin bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the envoy said that this wool cloak is simply a priceless treasure, and your youngest son must love you very much, he was deeply moved, and wanted to borrow the cloak to open his eyes." ”

Although Emperor Ping Chu had learned English, he was too old to remember most of his words, and turned his eyes to Taifu to confirm Song Huaijin's words.

Taifu stood up and said, "What Mr. Huai Jin said is word for word. ”

The ministers gasped one after another, and looked at Song Huaijin seriously, how did she learn such a difficult Western dialect?

Lu Jinning looked at Song Huaijin with even more interest: "I'm afraid everyone here knows the hardships of shipping, and the ninth brother has the heart to prepare gifts for his father, so he really shouldn't be ridiculed." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Lu Jinao meaningfully: "Second brother, you said yes, right?"

Only then did Lu Jinao realize that he had said the wrong thing, swallowed nervously, and immediately knelt on the ground with a soft "plop" of his legs:

"Father, the son is just worried about his father, so he... I didn't choose to say anything for a while, and I asked my father to be gracious, and I asked my father to be gracious! ”

"Even so, the second brother shouldn't listen to slander and misunderstand the relationship between the ninth brother and Mr. Huai Jin, right?"

Lu Jinchen played with the wine glass in his hand and looked at Lu Jinao, like looking at a prey that couldn't escape from the palm.

This down-to-earth attitude made Lu Jinao angry, and blurted out: "I misunderstood? Could it be that you really like that little slut?! ”

The other princes had different expressions, waiting to see Lu Jinao's jokes, no matter who had the heart to win the heir, the prince was their henchman.

It's just that as soon as the word "slut" blurted out, it was drowned in the noisy music.

The sudden rush of music instantly attracted everyone's attention.

At the door, Lu Jinghe was dressed in a bright red long-sleeved dance suit, wearing a silver fox mask, holding a silver scimitar, stepping on homemade roller skates, and turned in in two steps.

In the sound of intense music, it fell into the center of the main hall like a fairy flying out of the sky.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen dancers surrounded her, and the song "Lanling King Breaking Array Song" was fiercely interpreted, and everyone who watched was thrilled and amazed at the woman who led the dance.

As soon as Lu Jinao saw Lu Jinghe, he was relieved as if he saw a savior, his father loved him the most as a sister of a fellow mother, and over the years, every time he was punished, it was Lu Jinhe who helped to intercede.

At the end of the music, Lu Jinhe took two steps forward and picked up the wool cloak with a scimitar.

There was a bang.

The cloak instantly unfolded in the air, revealing the perfect phoenix nirvana diagram outlined by the peacock's golden thread, and then landed intact on her back.

Lu Jinhe immediately turned his scimitar, perfectly interpreting the heroic posture of King Lanling who was not afraid of danger and fought bravely to kill the enemy.

At the end of the music, Lu Jinhe took off his mask, smiled heartily and knelt down to salute: "Father, Happy New Year, my son has given you a New Year's greeting!" ”

Emperor Pingchu was immediately happy, and if he wanted to please him, no one could compare to this daughter.

Lu Jinhe looked at the cloak on his back and said, "This cloak is so good, who gave it away?"

"Your ninth brother!" Emperor Pingchu smiled gently.

"It's good, but my daughter thinks it's better than my dance, father, do you say yes?"

"You!"

Lu Jinhe stretched out his hand and put the cloak in Song Huaijin's hand, glared at the prince by covering up the warning, and then changed his smile and ran to the dragon chair in two steps, and coquettishly grabbed the corner of Emperor Pingchu's clothes: "Father, isn't it, isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, I really can't help you, let's all take a seat!" Emperor Pingchu's expression eased at this time.

Lu Jinao escaped, slumped in his seat and breathed a sigh of relief.

Song Huaijin handed the cloak to the chief eunuch and sat back with the Nine Emperor Princes.

Lu Jinhe took advantage of the situation to sit beside Emperor Pingchu, and said coquettishly: "Father, I traveled to the Hu clan this year and heard a new way to enhance feelings, and I just want to try it with this year's palace banquet, is it okay?"

"Is that okay? Is it okay Father? May I? Is that okay?"

"Yes, you can." As soon as Emperor Pingchu agreed, Lu Jinhe beckoned the dozen or so dancing girls to each bring a glass of wine and put it in front of him:

"Father and the emperor will drop your blood in each wine cup, and then let the royal brothers and brothers also drip their own blood into it, and when the blood is fused, everyone can drink it together and have one heart forever."

"Little superstition." Emperor Pingchu nodded her nose and said with a smile: "Today, my father will listen to you once!" So saying, he pricked his finger with a silver needle.

If it was in the past, Emperor Pingchu would never believe this, but in recent years, the princes have been seriously centrifuged, and he has a rare superstition.

Soon, the dancers brought wine cups in front of each prince.

Lu Jinchen frowned slightly, isn't this a blood test in disguise?

What exactly does Lu Jinhe want to do?
