Chapter 272: Sorrow (4)

Chen Jiali's discomfort at this time was incomprehensible, and she had great doubts about her own value and conduct! Suddenly I was disgusted with myself...

She has always felt that she is a beautiful and refined person worthy of being loved in a thousand ways, and she is detached from the crowd in her wisdom, but she ...... He is born and bright! Since God gave birth to Chen Jiali, why is there such a person as Zhou Xian?

It would be great if there was no Zhou Xian in this world! At least I didn't see her in Tokyo...... This reunion, first of all, dealt a comprehensive blow to Chen Jiali's arrogance in terms of appearance and temperament, making her feel that she was not the peerless beauty who thought she was like an immortal at all, just a layman! Then, Chen Jiali's "joke" made her feel very ashamed, is her character so bad?

You shouldn't have made that joke. She now feels that she has fallen from a "laywoman" to a "wicked woman" again. When she, an arrogant beauty, suddenly questioned herself and hated herself, she felt more uncomfortable than being killed!

Chen Jiali's heart is dripping blood: No! I'm not that kind of person, I'm a beautiful and white woman from the outside in, I don't want to become a vulgar woman......

But, can we stop it now?

Now that she has stopped, she feels that she is even more spurned by others, and her character has fallen again...... Even the mind will be hit and fall to the level of "stupidity" again. The mind is "vicious", and if it hurts people, it is played with between applause, and it is played with by Zhou Xian between talking and laughing; Even when people are still down, they can completely defeat themselves!

…… Chen Jiali's heart was surging, and she found a reason for herself: I am a very sincere businessman, Guo Shao gave me a priceless treasure, shouldn't I reciprocate? If you don't reciprocate, do you want to go? Besides, Guo Shao is still kind to me, and the revenge of killing her husband is greater than the sky; Can a friend in the boudoir be compared to a person of great kindness?

Yes, I should think of it this way, everything I did this time was to repay my kindness, and I am a woman with clear grievances.

"Cousin, you come with me." Chen Jiali said indifferently.

The two beautiful women with beautiful bodies moved lightly to a secret room inside. I saw that there were many calligraphy, paintings, and utensils on the shelves inside. Zhou Xian asked for permission and admired and inspected it casually.

"Zhao Pu's family moved over from the chaos of the Zhou Dynasty." Chen Jiali said, "Many places have Zhao Pu's seal and autographed catalog. Zhao Pu is a criminal official of the Zhou Dynasty, how can the things at home come to me? ”

Zhou Xian asked, "Guo Shao brought it?" ”

Chen Jiali nodded: "Even yesterday, you know that he sent something." Worth a fortune? ”

"It's a lot of money." Zhou Xian frowned.

Chen Jiali said: "He gave me benefits, threatened me, and asked me to do things for him. ”

Zhou Xian was silent.

Chen Jiali said carefully: "Guo Shao is still threatening me, now his power is monstrous, tell us not to toast and eat and drink, if you don't appreciate it, he will chop the sixth prince with a knife!" Chen Jiali deliberately stretched out her palm and slashed down hard.

Sure enough, Zhou Xian's shoulders trembled! Chen Jiali felt a sense of happiness in her heart, and said quietly: "If you kill the sixth son, you can take your cousin!" Don't you know how lawless the martial artists of the Zhou Dynasty were? He can really do it, and we can't do anything about him...... With hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers in hand, the world can only tremble under the iron hooves! In the Great Zhou, force is everything, there is no black and white! ”

Zhou Xian's face turned pale. Chen Jiali paid close attention to it and felt that she shouldn't be pretending this time, right?

…… Zhou Xian returned to see Li Yu, and Li Yu asked, "Have you resigned from your cousin?" ”

"No, or we stay two more days, I still have something to tell my cousin." Zhou Xian's face was not bloody.

Li Yu was puzzled: "What's the matter?" ”

Zhou Xiandao: "Do you still remember when I made up for the "Neon Dress and Feather Dance"? In the past, it was not easy to write a letter, but now that I have finally seen it, I just seized the opportunity to discuss it with my cousin. ”

"Now in this situation, you still have the mind to do that." Li Yu groaned.

Zhou Xian had to persuade him patiently: "Everyone has hobbies, and they can't let go of them at any time." ”

She didn't want to tell what Chen Jiali said, because Li Yu was a little suspicious of herself recently, and she was afraid that he would be too distracted and doubt that she would betray him; In addition, Li Yu was sad enough now to tell him to add to his troubles.

Zhou Xian was skeptical of Chen Jiali's words...... This time, Chen Jiali said very reasonably, but she can deceive Zhou Xian once, and she may deceive the second time; So Zhou Xian didn't particularly believe it.

But I still agree with Chen Jiali's reasoning: Zhou Xian and his wife are now in Tokyo, and the Southern Tang Kingdom is also a weak country compared to the Great Zhou, and their fate is really a matter of the powerful.

Sure enough, Li Yu said anxiously: "We should prepare a generous gift for Chen Jiali, it would be better if we could talk to Guo Shao." These strongmen are ruthless, and they can kill people with one word! ”

……

At that time, an official of the Zhou court received an envoy from the Southern Tang Kingdom, who was sent by the new lord Li Hongji, and presented a letter of state to continue to be a minister to the Great Zhou.

In the book, he asked the imperial court to send his brother Li Yu back to China, but the wording was not "brother and wife", and only Li Yu was asked to be alone; If the Great Zhou recognized Li Hongji's status as the lord of the state and repatriated Li Yu, the Southern Tang Kingdom was willing to pay an additional tribute worth one million guan.

A million times! This is a very rich sum of money for the Zhou Dynasty, which has been worried about military spending for a long time, and the Zhou Dynasty has been poor in military force, raising a lot of troops inside and outside, and has always been tight.

…… But Guo Shao didn't know much about the affairs of the Southern Tang Kingdom for the time being, and all his body and mind were on the great internal crisis a while ago, and he didn't care about the Southern Tang Kingdom at all. Now he felt a little exhausted, and he finally relaxed, and he didn't go to the court.

When they returned to the house, they happened to see Zuo You, and the two of them sat in the front courtyard hall for a while. At this time, the yellow blacksmith sent a large stack of worship posts, Zuo You picked it up without seeing it, and said with a smile: "There are many people who want to see the lord." ”

"There's a pile of waste paper every day." Guo Shao smiled, "But I don't dare to accept the official's gift, do I accept the money to help with the errand?" If you don't help, wouldn't it be very insincere, and if you help, you will be selling official porridge...... The way to kill chickens and take eggs, since it is the rule of man, the election of officials cannot be sloppy. ”

Zuo You nodded appreciatively: "The lord has revealed the spirit of the lord." ”

"The effect of power was immediate, even a month ago, not so many people wanted to make friends with me." Guo Shao groaned, "The right way is, justice is not in the hearts of the people, and right and wrong are not about strength." ”

Zuo You said with a smile: "Although the lord said so, how can he let go of Zhao Pu's family...... In fact, it is understandable to pick a few of those beautiful concubines. ”

Guo Shaoxing said to Suoran: "They are just afraid of my power and force, I don't need to force others anymore ......"

He is still very attentive to his women, even the two concubines in the family are very attentive, and he does not treat them as playthings. After all, people are people, not things. Besides, he has Fu Jinzhan in his heart, and his wife is Fu Ermei, Guo Shao feels that as long as they are enough, he has no interest in taking other people's wives and concubines.

"I'm not as as the rumors, I don't know who made the rumors, I was really shot while lying down." Guo Shao and Zuo You are close, so he leaned over and laughed quietly: "The best thing for a woman is not her body and color, but her heart; Raising is for pity, and you can't take care of it if you are greedy. We're not going to see how miserable they're doing...... In that case, you will increase your guilt and unhappiness, and you will be troubled, so why bother? ”

Zuo You echoed: "The lord is a romantic person. ”

Guo Shao laughed and said, "I'm just a martial artist...... Hey, why doesn't Mr. Zuo become an official? I saw the Queen Mother another day and asked her to give you an official. ”

Zuo You listened to Guo Shao's understatement of "calling the Queen Mother to be an official", and his face had already shown a look of admiration, so he almost didn't give a thumbs up, and said indifferently at the moment: "How can you work with the lord every day, or talk about elegance and elegance?" ”

Guo Shao said: "If you are idle, find a place in the Hanlin Courtyard or what Xiao Jiuqing will do first, and go to report a few times a month." I can take it, and I save money. ”

Zuo You joked: "I thought that the lord wanted to appreciate the merits, but it turned out that he had this idea!" ”

The opening was Hanlin Academy, Xiao Jiuqing, Guo Shao knew that Zuo You's saliva was about to flow down secretly, and he was still pretending! He said quietly: "Forget it, let's talk about it later." ”

After speaking, pay attention to Zuo You's face.

Sure enough, Zuo You couldn't hide his anxiety, touched a wisp of beard on his chin and said, "Actually, it's ...... When you meet a friend in officialdom, if you have a bit of identity and a better face, it's not impossible to ......be an official."

Guo Shao laughed when he heard the shooting.

Zuo You's face turned red, and he looked at Guo Shao and sighed "sigh".

At this moment, another family member walked to the door and brought in a post. Guo Shao smiled: "Show it to Mr. Zuo, he likes to read words." ”

Zuo You just wanted to reach out to pick it up, but suddenly stopped and said softly, "Mrs. Chen......"

"Ugh! Take it. Guo Shao said busily. He hurriedly took it and tore it open, it was not only a prayer note, but also a letter inside.

Zuo You waved his hand and told the family members of the Guo Mansion to stand down, and immediately said in a mocking tone: "What did the lord say just now, isn't it a good woman?" ”

Zuo Youping is still very respectful, but whenever he is in a good mood when he accomplishes something big, Guo Shao takes the initiative to joke with him, and over time, the two of them are used to getting along in a more casual way.

Guo Shao ignored his joke and looked at the letter. In the letter, Mrs. Chen mentioned that the things she sent last time were too valuable, but she was ashamed to accept them disrespectfully, and wanted to return a particularly rare treasure, and was sure that Guo Shao would be satisfied.

Does Mrs. Chen want to take the initiative to dedicate herself? Guo Shao thought for a while, and suddenly remembered Chen Jiali's flexible, slender and very powerful waist because of long-term dance practice, which is indeed very good! Who doesn't love beauty? The main Guo Shao has a high taste after marrying the second sister Fu, and ordinary women really can't arouse his interest, but Chen Jiali is an exception.
