{Volume 1 • How to give birth to the word Mandarin Duck}

Hongmeng Continent, Northern Tianzhuo Country.

In 973 of the red calendar, the new emperor of Tianzhuo ascended the throne, quelled the civil strife, swept the northwest, came from all over the world, and came from all directions. The prosperous situation is the most Hongmeng.

In 976 of the red calendar, the general Shen Liangchen pacified Dongyi, and the emperor held a feast for Shen Liangchen in the capital Fengzhao.

The capital city of Fengzhao, the sun and moon hall.

The first meeting between Shen Liangchen and Chu Changting was at this celebration banquet.

Shen Liangchen had never seen such a beautiful woman.

Bright as spring, bright as the autumn moon. The light eyebrows are like autumn water, and the blue skin is accompanied by a light breeze. The eyes are waved, and the lips are dyed. Qianqian's thin waist is like a willow in February, and it is like a fish swimming shallow bottom with a slight flash. Dressed in a crimson koi brocade skirt, a red handsome falcon with a flower bouquet waist, and stepping on Xuanbing brocade shoes. Dancing like a peach blossom in March, it is like a peach blossom in March, and it is full of fragrance and splendor between looking forward to it.

Shen Liangchen looked at it stupidly, and unconsciously spilled wine all over his body.

At the end of the dance, Chu Changting's lotus steps moved lightly, his body saluted, his lips opened lightly, and said: "The courtier Chu Changting visited the emperor and congratulated the emperor on pacifying Dongyi." ”

"Hmm." There was no fluctuation on the emperor's face, his eyes swept over Chu Changting and looked at Shen Liangchen who was confused, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile flashed on the ground, and then he waved his hand and said, "Let's sit down and rest first." ”

"Yes." Chu Changting got up, slowly sat down behind Chu Minghong, the prime minister of the current dynasty and the patriarch of the two dynasties, picked up the freshly brewed jade dew osmanthus brewed on the table and took a sip, his eyes secretly aimed at the emperor.

The emperor picked up the Nine Dragons inlaid with gold and silver cups, shook it twice thoughtfully, and then sipped slightly, his eyes looked at Shen Liangchen fixedly, the corners of his mouth raised lightly, and said in a majestic voice: "Shen Liangchen, you have made great contributions this time, what do you want me to reward you, say it." ”

"Hey, Xun'er." Chu Changting pulled the sleeves of the maidservants beside him, a pear vortex appeared on his face, and he said softly, "You said that the emperor of the dynasty has reigned for three years, but there is still no one in the harem, and I heard that he is an ice cube face and knife heart, except for Shen Liangchen, he never smiles at anyone." Look at the way he looks at the white-faced general now, can't it be interesting to him......"

"Eh, what are you talking about, Miss!" Xun'er blushed with shame at what Chu Changting said, hurriedly looked around to see if anyone was paying attention to this, and then lowered her voice and said, "Miss, you are not afraid of being heard by others, and you are not ashamed to talk nonsense like this." Chu Changting looked at Xun'er's embarrassed appearance, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and snickered wantonly, and his eyes also turned into crescent moons, shining with dots of light.

"Chu Changting." The emperor's cold voice made Chu Changting almost spit out the grapes that had just been eaten, she hurriedly wiped her mouth, and then got up to salute, a little flustered but not steady: "The courtiers are here." ”

"What about my decision?" The emperor asked Chu Changting, but his eyes were still on Shen Liangchen, and there was unfathomable emotion in his eyes like a pool of water in late autumn, rippling with swirling ripples.

"Ah...... Uh...... "Chu Changting tightened his sleeves, he was just joking with Xun'er, how could he know what decision the emperor had made?!" Chu Changting hesitated for two seconds, calculated in his heart, and said crisply in line with the principle of being afraid of sycophants, "The resolution made by the emperor is good no matter what." After that, he didn't forget to smile flatteringly at Yi Lun.

"Okay," for some reason, Yi Lunhuan's eyes never turned to Chu Changting, he raised his eyebrows, and drank all the wine in the cup, "Then choose a good day and do the marriage." ”

Chu Changting's heart was empty, and he was covered in sweat. She hurriedly looked up, only to find that Shen Liangchen was kneeling in the center of the hall as a courtier. What the? Marriage? And with whom? It won't be with this barbaric general who looks like a weak scholar, right? Don't! I'm only sixteen years old, and it's not been a few days since I got married, but I don't want to be with someone like this who has only met once! Is the happiness of the rest of my life buried in my own hands!? Chu Changting hurriedly looked at Chu Minghong for help, and called softly: "Father......"

Chu Minghong turned around and said, "Don't thank you yet." ”

Chu Changting suddenly felt the cold gaze of the emperor above the main hall, and his heart was full of surprise and remorse, but after all, he still knelt down under the forced gaze of his father and the majesty of the emperor, took a deep breath and said, "Courtier Chu Changting...... Thank you to the emperor for the marriage. ”

Chu Minghong nodded with satisfaction, Shen Liangchen is the general who protects the country, in terms of status and status, there is no second person in the court other than the emperor who is worthy of his daughter like him. Moreover, his daughter is squeamish by nature, although she is stable in front of people, but she is crazy and childish in the back. Presumably, except for Shen Liangchen, no one can control his daughter.

At the end of the banquet, Chu Changting walked to his sedan chair sullenly, looked around at no one, and stretched out his foot and kicked his sedan chair violently, the red paint on the sedan chair and the beads on his shoes were knocked to the ground.

"It's all your fault!" Chu Changting's face turned red, his eyebrows were half-constricted, he cried so much that he threw the handkerchief in his hand down on Xun'er, "I was pointed out to the white-faced general in the wind and sun in this way, and I haven't seen him once!" The rest of my happiness was ruined! ”

Xun'er knew her young lady's temper best, so she had to pick up the handkerchief and dust it, and then went to help Chu Changting smooth his chest, and persuaded: "Okay, okay, miss, don't be angry, the emperor Chrysostom said that this is already an indisputable fact, if we want to get out of the marriage, we won't be able to do it, besides, General Shen has a lot of martial arts achievements, and he looks like a jade tree, and the young lady marrying him is not a disadvantage to herself." ”

"Xun'er! How do you elbow out! Otherwise, if I marry you to him, I won't marry him anyway! Chu Changting took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped his tears aggrievedly.

"Hahahaha, I didn't expect that the eldest lady of the Chu family still has a habit of molesting servants, I saw it in the main hall today." Shen Liangchen's hearty laughter sounded from behind him, Chu Changting turned his head suddenly, only to see Shen Liangchen retreat from his dress, dressed in a crane white dragon-patterned man, a cow fracture fan in his hand swaying gently, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, clothes flying, and a faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers everywhere he passed, with the moonlight in the night.

Xun'er is crazy.

It is really like a knife cut, the eyebrows are like ink paintings, the face is like peach petals, and the eyes are like autumn waves.

"You!" Chu Changting's tears gushed out, his cheeks were crimson, and his little mouth was crooked.

"Eh, what are you crying about?" When Shen Liangchen saw Chu Changting crying, he was in a mess, and hurriedly put away the folding fan to wipe the tears on Chu Changting's cheeks, but Chu Changting flashed suddenly, Chu Changting slapped Shen Liangchen's hand that was stopped in the air, and then pointed at Shen Liangchen's bewildered face with his finger, and said angrily: "Shen Liangchen, you listen to me, I won't marry you!" ”

Shen Liangchen was stunned for two seconds, and a sly smile flashed in his eyes: "This is the marriage referred to by the emperor, why do you want to resist the decree and disrespect?" ”

"I... I don't care! Chu Changting flicked his sleeves, "Who wants to marry a sweaty general like you, who wants to be literate and martial and martial every day!" Look at how nondescript you are, you're obviously a general and dressed like a white-faced scholar! Find another three wives and four concubines in the future, how can Miss Ben stand your anger! ”

"If you don't like me dressed like this, then I'll be more heroic next time." Shen Liangchen gently tugged on Chu Changting's sleeve, and after being ruthlessly thrown away, he suddenly took two steps back, solemnly raised his right hand and said: "I, Shen Liangchen, swear here today, the stars and the moon are the mirror, the heaven and the earth are the proof, and only one person will marry Chu Changting in this life and this life. ”

Chu Changting opened her mouth, and all the words she wanted to say were choked back by Shen Liangchen's sentence that she only married one person, she quickly turned around and got into the sedan chair, hiding the waves under her eyes in the night, her mouth was still unforgiving, and she said crisply: "Wait to be killed by thunder!" Then he left in a hurry.

After Shen Liangchen looked at Chu Changting and left, he took out a handkerchief from Chu Changting that he didn't know when, and by the moonlight, Shen Liangchen saw that the handkerchief was clearly embroidered with the words "The mountain has trees and branches, and the heart is happy and the king does not know".

How... Could it be that this little girl has someone in her heart?

Shen Liangchen stood quietly, his tall figure like a tree.
