Chapter 16 Eating in the bowl and thinking about the pot
At noon, King Su's guard of honor marched through Zhilong Street, and merchants, fans, and households all stood on both sides of the street to salute.
After the carriage arrived at the palace, King Su let the officials and squires who came to greet him disperse, and took Xu Buling and Hongluan Xiang'er to the palace study, and didn't even eat a bite of food, obviously stunned by Xu Buling's audacity.
The son of the dignified vassal king, who went to the capital to be a proton, should have walked on thin ice and was cautious in his words and deeds.
The result was good, the emperor was put together, and the queen mother was abducted back, what is this?
If you let Song Ji, who is far away in the capital, know......
That's a cool death!
King Su Xu You was calm and serious, staring at his son who was sitting precariously, and then looked at the Queen Mother next to him with her head bowed and her face flushed, and tapped her fingers on the desk, trying to keep the vassal king's bearing and not laughing.
A few decades ago, Xu You did regard Song Ji as a brother, but after the Iron Eagle Deer Hunting and Xu Buling, this love had long been broken.
The monarch is unkind, and Hugh blames the king for his injustice.
Before King Su Xu You received Xu Buling's plan, he was really ready to lead his troops to slaughter Chang'an.
It wasn't until Xu Buling's second letter delivery layout that he dispelled the idea of the fish dying and the net was broken.
Now that the Queen Mother is turned back, there is no taboo for monarchs and ministers, but I feel that it is a little inappropriate.
Even if you have a grudge against the other party, you can just pick up a knife and cut it, and turn the queen mother back, which feels a bit inferior......
However, the abduction was turned back, and the Queen Mother was also burned, so she couldn't be sent back, and she definitely couldn't really let the court know about it......
Xu Buling faced King Su's scrutinizing gaze and pondered for a moment:
"Hmm...... In Chang'an, thanks to the Queen Mother trying her best to detoxify me, the Queen Mother lived in the deep palace for ten years and lived a miserable life. β
King Su Xu You frowned slightly: "Your poison was solved by the Queen Mother?" β
Xu Buling nodded seriously: "That's right, if it weren't for the Queen Mother, I wouldn't have been able to leave Chang'an safe and sound." β
Mrs. Lu saw that Xiao Xiang'er was a little embarrassed, and interjected: "That's true, Xiang'er left Beijing voluntarily, and I hope that the prince will give her a place to stay." β
What could Xu You say, everyone took it, and raised his hand lightly at the moment:
"That's it, no one should know about it, Queen Mother...... Miss Xiao Er lived in Suzhou, incognito, and followed Ling'er in the future, and must not reveal her identity, otherwise the Xiao family is estimated to be in big trouble. β
Xiao Xiang'er pursed her lips, she wanted to explain the detoxification and prove that she was out of righteousness, so she didn't like Xu Buling to come over. But before he could speak, he was pulled down by Mrs. Lu and had to keep his mouth shut.
There was silence in the room for a moment, and King Su Xu You felt that his former precious son had indeed grown up, and he couldn't see through it, and he didn't know what to say at the moment.
Mrs. Lu pondered, but said:
"Lord Wang, Ling'er will be crowned soon, and the princess has not yet decided...... Xiang'er was born in a famous family, so she can't just live like this, or ...... If you don't choose a princess for Ling'er, when the time comes, you will enter the door together, cover your head, and no one will pay attention to it......"
Xu You nodded: "I have been discussing this matter with my staff for a long time, the princess is not only marrying a daughter-in-law, but she has to do many things in the twelve states of Xiliang herself, and there are few women who can be princesses, and they have to be the right people." Among the five surnames, there are almost no people of the right age who are good friends with this king, and the Jianghu family is not suitable because of the relationship between the iron eagle and the deer......"
Mrs. Lu has been suffering from this headache for a long time, and now turned to Xu Buling:
"Ling'er, you are not too young, and you have a candidate for the princess in your heart. It just so happens that King Su is also here, and Xiang'er and I can also consult, so if it is suitable, it will be decided. β
Xu Buling blinked his eyes and sat up a few straighter:
"There is a ...... for the candidate"
Mrs. Lu's eyes narrowed slightly, but she immediately reacted again, leaned a little closer to the side, and said softly:
"Who?"
Xiao Xiang'er's expression was a little strange, but her identity was destined not to be a princess, so she just listened attentively.
Xu You looked at his son, and his eyes showed a little relief: "Someone can choose to say it directly, this Dayue is up and down, as long as this king speaks, there is no girl who can't marry back, and if you don't marry and rob it, you will be robbed back." β
Xu Buling glanced at the baby next to him, after all, he had done it for Miss Xiao, if he pretended not to happen too much, he could only bite the bullet at the moment:
"When I was in the capital, I had a very happy conversation with Xiao Qi, the eldest lady of the Huainan Xiao family......"
Smack-
Two slaps on the table rang out at the same time.
Xiao Xiang'er's apricot eyes glared for a moment: "Xu Buling!" You...... You're looking for death! So saying, he stood up and tried to run over.
Mrs. Lu's eyes were full of astonishment, but when she saw that Xiao Xiang'er was angry, her heart was a little more balanced-there was one anyway, and another one was actually like that......
Xu Buling knew that the baby would be angry, so he raised his hand helplessly: "Xiang'er, don't be angry......"
"Phewβ"
Xiao Xiang'er was about to cry, and she didn't care about King Su's presence, so she said angrily: "You...... You are eating in the bowl and looking at the pot, my sister is sitting in the Xiao family in Huainan, how can she marry you? You dream! I don't agree with this family business......"
Mrs. Lu also frowned: "Yes, Miss Xiao's character is well known, how can she agree ......?"
Even King Su Xu You had a strange expression, leaned back in the chair, looked at Xiao Xiang'er, and said slowly:
"Xiao Qi is both talented and beautiful, and it is justified to be a princess, but ...... Alas, forget it, my father is old, you can do it yourself......"
Xu You knew how terrifying it was for a woman to go crazy, sighed, stood up and walked out as if he didn't care about himself, and closed the door.
As soon as King Su left, Xiao Xiang'er couldn't restrain herself, but now she was directly angry, ran to Xu Buling, and beat her little fist indiscriminately:
"Xu Buling, what do you mean? What do you think of Hongu? You don't give me an explanation today, I'm ...... I ......"
As he spoke, he was going to hit the wall.
Xu Buling was helpless, raised his hand and hugged Xiao Xiang'er, with a pleasant face:
"Baby, I'm also for your good ......"
"Whew!"
Good for me? Xiao Xiang'er's face was red with anger, and she couldn't struggle, "Huh~" was biting on Xu Buling's hand.
Mrs. Lu was also a little annoyed, she didn't pull it when she stood in front of her, and raised her hand to pat Xu Buling on the shoulder:
"Ling'er, don't deceive people too much, Xiang'er doesn't even want her life for you, you still think about other people's sisters, you ...... You...... Alas......"
Xu Buling comforted the crazy baby and said seriously:
"Miss Xiao's identity is suitable, and she is exactly the same as Xiang'er, after marrying in Suzhou, Xiang'er doesn't have to hide, the sisters are princesses together, and outsiders can't see it......"
ββ¦β¦β
Xiao Xiang'er was biting Xu Buling's arm, she was stunned when she heard this, she let go of her mouth and raised her head, as if she was a little moved, but she reacted immediately, frowned and said coldly:
"You're dreaming! If my sister marries me and finds out I'm here, she has to kill me! You...... You're trying to kill me, aren't you? β
Speaking of this, Xiao Xiang'er couldn't help but feel aggrieved, she sacrificed herself to save Xu Buling, she was already under great pressure, and now she can't live well, and she doesn't want to die very much, she always feels sorry for the Xiao family who ruined the doorway.
It turned out to be good, Xu Buling didn't hurt her, and wanted to marry her sister back to serve a husband with a sister, if her sister really came over, would she still be alive?
Mrs. Lu also frowned slightly: "Ling'er, you are too whimsical, Xiao Qi is very arrogant, and he has a heavy responsibility, it is impossible to agree." β
Xu Buling thought for a while: "It's just a discussion, it's not decided yet, and Miss Xiao may not necessarily agree......"
Xiao Xiang'er frowned: "It's not okay to discuss!" My sister won't marry you. β
Xu Buling spread his hand slightly: "Try it, if your sister agrees, you will be able to run around openly in the future, as long as you don't show up at the same time, who knows who is who." β
Xiao Xiang'er stared at a pair of apricot eyes: "It's just not good!" β
Xu Buling sighed: "In a few days, prepare a boat to go down to Jiangnan, whether it works out or not, you can at least go home and have a look, with Aunt Lu and I present, I won't embarrass you if I want to come to the Xiao family." β
ββ¦β¦β
Hearing this, Xiao Xiang'er was moved in her heart - you can't hide and hide all your life, you have to face this matter, go back to the Xiao family, if your sister doesn't blame her, she is more comfortable alive, if she blames her, it is natural to apologize for her death in the Xiao family, but ......
"Still no, how can you go to the Xiao family to propose marriage, in case my sister loses her mind and agrees, how can I live?"
Mrs. Lu never felt that Xiao Xiang'er's actions were sorry for anyone, but she didn't know what Xiao Qi thought. Xiao Xiang'er feels sorry for the Xiao family all day long, it is best to be able to explain clearly and untie the knot, with her in the middle of saying good things, there should be no mistakes.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Lu said softly: "Why don't we accompany Xiang'er to Jiangnan?" When will we talk about the marriage proposal? β
Xu Buling nodded: "Okay, listen to Aunt Lu's arrangement." β
When Xiao Xiang'er heard this, she dissipated her anger a little, thought about it, and raised her hand to hit Xu Buling's chest:
"Just take me to make amends, how can you think of marrying my sister? You...... You're not at ease! Why don't you marry Hongluan! β
Mrs. Lu staggered, and immediately patted Xiao Xiang'er's arm with a red face:
"Xiao Xiang'er, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"You still say me? Look at the people you brought out, I don't know if it's Entu, it's ......."
Tweeting, arguing......
Xu Buling was a little unreasonable, and in desperation, he held his breath, his face turned blue, and he supported his forehead:
"Uh~I'm dizzy......"
Mrs. Lu was startled, hurriedly closed her voice, and raised her hand to support Xu Buling: "What's wrong?" Poisoned again? β
Xu Buling's face was full of discomfort, and he looked pained:
"I'm fine, don't worry about ......"
Xiao Xiang'er also hurriedly shut up, took two steps back and hugged her chest, wanting to turn around and run away.
As a result, he was naturally dragged back by Mrs. Lu and anxiously pushed:
"What are you running, detoxify quickly!"
Xiao Xiang stomped his feet angrily, looked at the half-dead Xu Buling, gritted his teeth and said: "After serving the two of you, what kind of sin did I create in my last life to meet you ......"
Xu Buling can't help it, I can't talk when I'm sober, and I can only talk to the baby when I'm dizzy......
