Chapter 12 The king does not live up to the concubine, and the concubine will not live up to the king
Seeing that it has entered October, the territory of Qianxiang Country is still full of greenery, and there is no trace of gloom.
Because all the customs in the country are modeled after the Great Zhou, three or five miles outside Qinglin Mansion, the existence of the official pavilion is indispensable - just a few days ago, Sun Shaozong just welcomed the new envoy Hou Yong in the official pavilion, and on this day, it was Hou Yong's turn to send him off here.
As Sun Shaozong expected, the court really had no intention of condemning the crime, and only issued an order to Sun Shaozong to return to the court immediately after the handover between Sun Shaozong and Hou Yong was completed.
In addition, Hou Yong also brought a good news: the Prince Yizhong offended by Sun Shaozong at the beginning, because of the leakage of the private firearms, has now been confined in the Zongren Mansion, and all the belongings in the family have been copied and sold, and even the coffin that was ordered at the beginning has been resold to others.
"Erlang!"
But he said that outside this long pavilion and on the side of the ancient road, Hou Yong solemnly hugged his fist, and his rough horse face showed a little loneliness: "After returning to the capital, don't forget to say peace to my old lady on behalf of my brother, let her old man take care of her body, and wait for me to go back to fulfill my filial piety!" ”
Different from the previous ambassador Niu, this Hou Yong was born in the army, and Sun Shaozong's brother Sun Shaozu is called the patrol battalion double tiger, and they have some friendship with each other, so they do not commensurate Sun Shaozong with an official position, but call him 'Erlang'.
Although they have only been with each other for a few days, Sun Shaozong and this bold and generous, but not disproportionate, Brother Hou are quite compatible.
At this time, seeing this bold man like a black iron tower, when he mentioned his mother, he couldn't help but choke a little, and he was also sorry in his heart, and he hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Brother Hou, don't worry, when I return to Shuntian Mansion, I will often go to the house to visit my aunt!" ”
"Then brother, thank you here!"
Hou Yong said, waved his hand back, and immediately had an accompanying attendant serve two bowls of water and wine, he first handed Sun Shaozong a bowl, and then took a bowl for himself, and sent the wine bowl forward, saying: "It's not too early, drink this bowl of Zhuangxing wine, Erlang will go on the road - come, do it!" ”
"!"
Sun Shaozong was busy and raised his bowl to greet him.
Waiting for a bowl of wine to pour down his throat, he looked at Hou Yong and smiled, and was about to say goodbye to leave, but he saw the official road galloping over, although it was a man in a green coat and a small hat, he was crisp as a warbler crying from afar: "Brother Sun, wait for me!" ”
With just this voice, Sun Shaozong could tell that it was Ruan Rong!
I couldn't help but be happy and surprised, happy that before leaving, I could say goodbye to this little girl in person; What surprised me was that this girl was obviously married today, but she still went out of the city to see her off, if she let her future husband know, it would not be a good thing.
Sun Shaozong subconsciously took a few steps forward and asked, "Miss Rong, why are you ......?"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Ruan Rong flying down from his horse, and crashed into his arms regardless of it, and said even more resolutely: "Brother Sun, I don't want to marry that idiot of the Pan family, I want to go back to Dazhou with you!" ”
This time it really changed in a hurry, Sun Shaozong looked at her picturesque little face in a daze, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
"Hahaha......"
At this time, while listening to Hou Yong's hearty laughter, he stepped forward and patted Sun Shaozong on the shoulder, and teased him: "I don't want Erlang, you still have such skills, it really makes my brother and I envious!" ”
Sun Shaozong's body was stiff and didn't dare to move, he turned his head awkwardly and said with a wry smile: "Brother Hou, don't talk nonsense, Miss Rong is the daughter of the Qinglin prefect's family, and the Pan family is the head of the Qianxiang country, if I really take her to Da Zhou, how can the two families be willing to give up?" ”
"What if you don't give up? Could it be that they still dare to chase after Shuntianfu?! Hou Yong said nonchalantly: "The girl doesn't even care about the name for you, this heart is comparable to real gold, why don't you want to push her to that Pan fool?" ”
As he spoke, he glared at the bull's eye again, and threatened in a vicious manner: "I can say ugly things in front, you kid dare to do this dirty thing, don't say that my brother didn't do it, I have to reason with you with this big fist in a casserole!" ”
Speechless......
This big brother Hou is really a model of impatience and righteousness!
And the son of the Pan family is just a book-lover and an idiot, where is he a fool?!
As mentioned earlier, although Sun Shaozong also has a good impression of Ruan Rong, there is still a big distance from the love between men and women, but the daughter of the dignified prefect does not hesitate to run away from home, and she wants to live and fly with herself, but where can he say the word 'refusal'?
After a little hesitation, seeing that Ruan Rong's face showed some panic, she had no choice but to sigh, bow her head and ask, "Do you really want to go to Da Zhou with me?" ”
Ruan Rong nodded without hesitation, her raised little face full of anticipation.
"That's good!"
Sun Shaozong stretched out a hand in front of her eyes: "Let's swear by high-fives, in the territory of Qianxiang Country, you have about eight days to think clearly, as long as you regret it, I will send you back to Qinglin Mansion immediately without saying a word - but once you set foot in the land of Da Zhou, you will be my Sun Shaozong's woman, and you will not be allowed to regret it!" ”
Ruan Rong stared at the big hand for a while, then she took a deep breath, imprinted the white jade soft lily, and said solemnly: "You will not live up to your concubine, and your concubine will not live up to you!" ”
After making the oath, Ruan Rong breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and hurriedly broke free from Sun Shaozong's arms, blushing and stroking the hair in her ears.
"Feng Xin!"
Once Sun Shaozong made up his mind, he immediately put all his scruples behind, pointed to the white horse that Ruan Rong rode on, and ordered: "Tie it to the back of the car first, and take turns on the road." ”
Like Sun Shaozong, Feng Xin was also asked to leave to return to the Great Zhou, but the difference was that he returned to Beijing to report to the military department, while Sun Shaozong returned to Beijing to meet - that is, he had to walk around in front of the emperor before making arrangements.
Feng Xin was ordered to go to Narana White Horse.
Sun Shaozong said to Ruan Rong again: "You get in the car first, and after I say goodbye to Brother Hou, we will set off." ”
Ruan Rong nodded obediently, but first untied a package from the back of the white horse, and then said good luck to Hou Yong, and then got into the car by herself.
"Brother Hou, I ......"
"Alright, don't ink with me!"
Seeing that Sun Shaozong was going to come over to say goodbye to him, Hou Yong waved his hand impatiently and urged: "You kid better hurry up and get on the road, if you delay any longer, the bitter master of the people should catch up!" ”
Sun Shaozong could only arch his hand speechlessly, snatched the whip from Feng Xin's hand, jumped on the wheel and shook it, and the horse immediately got up with four hooves and went all the way east along the official road.
Later, Feng Xin hurriedly turned over Sun Shaozong's black horse, and followed closely with the reins.
Since this day, a group of three people have stayed overnight and rushed to the border between the two countries without hurrying.
Eight days later.
The three of them finally left the territory of Qianxiang Country and officially set foot on the land of the Great Zhou, that evening, Ruan Rong burned incense and worshiped three times in the direction of Qinglin Mansion, and when she got up, she was already in tears.
