"Hey, Ah Shi, why is the front yard of the house so lively, will there be dragon and lion dances at the Lantern Festival in Linchuan?"

Xuanyuan thought that the desire to see the lanterns in her heart made her impatient, if she hadn't known that there were still Lord County Keeper and others waiting for her in the front yard, she would have run out over the wall early in the morning.

Liu Shi heard Xuanyuan Qi say this, stopped, and there was indeed a very clear sound of gongs and drums in his ears from the direction of the front yard.

Xuanyuan Qi and Liu Shi looked at each other and felt that something was wrong, this voice was clearly the joy of marriage, who would marry a daughter like this from King Kang's Mansion on August 15?

Thinking like this, Xuanyuan Qi and Liu Shi hurried to the front yard. In front of him, it was an extremely shocking scene.

A group of people dressed in red clothes stood in front of King Kang's mansion in a line, and the gongs, drums and suona were also issued by them.

There was a crowd of people, and the front of King Kang's mansion was quickly crowded. Xuanyuan Qi and Liu Shi noticed that the county guard and the others who were waiting for them just now had disappeared at this time.

"It's from Liang Guo."

Mrs. Yan walked around the corner with a cane and some unfavorable legs and feet, and took the corner of Xuanyuan Qi's clothes.

Liu Shi on the side listened, and unconsciously had a bad idea in his heart.

Could it be that Xia Zhengtao really saw through Xuanyuan Qi's daughter's body, so he came to look for trouble? How can this be good?!

"Fortunately, I will be lucky, I will be fortunate to be ......"

Here, in the middle of a group of musical instruments in red robes, another young man wearing a crimson robe stepped forward, playing with a string of red jade beads in one hand and a brocade box in the other. Most notably, he also has a wooden branch on the crown of his head. And he was followed by a few people who looked like little people, all of whom were holding a brocade box that was more than two arms long.

This young man holding a brocade box and wearing a crimson robe is not a bystander, but the strange-looking Xia Zhengtao.

Suddenly, with the string of red jade beads in his hand, Liu Shi's bad premonition was even stronger, what is Xia Zhengtao going to do? !

And Xuanyuan Qi, when she saw her string of red jade beads, although what she thought in her heart was that she couldn't help but say that she would beat Xia Zhengtao and take it away, but now on this occasion, if she went to grab it directly, wouldn't she have recruited her daughter's identity?

Just when Liu Shi and Xuanyuan Qi didn't know why, and they didn't know what to do, Xia Zhengtao, who was smiling all over his face, had already approached.

He was used to wearing armor on weekdays, and he was really not used to changing back into this robe for a while, and the wooden branch that was inserted on his crown also trembled, making him a little uncomfortable.

"I don't know what the prince of Liang Guo is doing when he comes to my Kang Wangfu?"

Seeing Xia Zhengtao's strange appearance, Xuanyuan Qi unconsciously became vigilant, and protected Liu Shi and the others behind him with his backhand, deliberately lowered his voice, and faced Xia Zhengtao.

However, Xia Zhengtao didn't answer her, the beads in his hand were clenched, and he opened the brocade box, and what was in the brocade box was a heavy ripe papaya.

"Vote for me with papaya, and repay it with Qiongju. Yesterday, my sister Liu Zhu gave me this string of pearls and jade, and I will give a papaya back today. ”

These words were not said to Xuanyuan Qi, but to Liu Shi.

"Sister...... Younger sister? Liu Shi was shocked, but he was firmly guarded, he and Xuanyuan Qi looked at each other, and guessed what was going on very tacitly.

This Xia Zhengtao must have taken Xuanyuan Qi's casual nonsense name "Liu Zhu" seriously, he felt smart and knew that "Liu Zhu" from Yecheng would naturally think that it was his sister Liu Shi.

"Okay, you Xia Zhengtao! I used to take advantage of the king's illness to come to this king's mansion to grab land, and now I come to this king's mansion to rob people, isn't it?! ”

Xuanyuan Qi had a hot temper, and before Liu Shi could grab her wrist in time, she approached Xia Zhengtao straight and grabbed her red jade beads with one hand.

Naturally, she caught a blank shot.

"Hmph, this is given to me by Zhu Niang, you dwarf from Yecheng, you still want to snatch it from the hands of this prince?!"

Xia Zhengtao said, looking down at Xuanyuan Qi with a playful face, he couldn't imagine that this King Kang, who was more than a head shorter than him, could actually beat his brother Xia Zhengde to the ground?!

Xia Zhengtao didn't believe it.

And here, when Xuanyuan heard Xia Zhengtao say "Zhu Niang" in his mouth, and saw that he refused to hand over the string of red jade beads, he added fire to the fire, and he was almost about to do it.

Just when Xia Zhengtao and Xuanyuan Qi were one big and one small, staring at each other, seeing that the atmosphere was extremely tense, Liu Shi stepped forward and stretched out his hand to Xia Zhengtao, begging for the string of red jade beads.

"Sister Liu Zhu was greedy for fun yesterday, and when she came back, she said that she accidentally lost the red jade bead string given to her by her father, and cried for several hours, and now her eyes are swollen into peaches, and she can't see people.

Xia Zhengtao looked at Liu, this was the second time he had seen him. The last time he saw him, he only remembered that this person's body and bones were not very good, but now that he took a closer look, Xia Zhengtao realized that Liu Shi was not born as deficient as he thought, or that he was suffering from tuberculosis, but that his heart, lungs and meridians were injured.

If it goes well, then it can be regarded as half a brother, Xia Zhengtao unexpectedly handed over the red jade beads to Liu Shi.

After taking the string of beads, Liu Shi carefully looked at it, confirmed that it was the original, and lightly put it into the purse on his waist.

Very well, the string of red jade beads is in hand, and now it's time to settle the rest. Although Liu Shi was still not sure whether Xia Zhengtao didn't know or pretended not to know Xuanyuan Qi's daughter's body, he was sure of one thing.

This is the same as a few small people behind Xia Zhengtao, and what they are holding in their hands is by no means a hidden sword, gun, sword and halberd, but the so-called "dowry".

Thinking of this, Liu Shi was very helpless, originally he had only occasionally heard about the customs of the Liang Kingdom from other ministers and Liu Chu's mouth...... It's a big different country, and it's just a matter of marrying the same clan, what is this now? Is it to come to the door and forcibly propose?

The person in front of him is really Xia Zhengtao, the prince of Liang State?! With such a big matter, Emperor Liang doesn't care about it?!

Lord Wang, Lord Wang, this time you broke into a big mess and hurt me, now, where do you ask me to find a sister to come out?

There were thousands of thoughts in his mind, but Liu Shi still pretended to be calm, and the respectful and warm hospitable smile on his face did not decrease.

As for whether Xia Zhengtao, who can't see through his mind, will be tricked, it's another matter.

At this moment, Liu Shi still stopped Xuanyuan Qi behind him, ignoring her restlessness, Liu Shi secretly untied the purse from his waist and handed it to Xuanyuan Qi in the cuff.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, this is not a trivial matter, you are being hasty......"

Liu Shi raised his hand and pointed to the papaya that Xia Zhengtao was holding in his hand, and when Xia Zhengtao was anxious to open the brocade box in the hands of the little guys, Liu Shi hurriedly ran over and buckled the brocade box that had revealed a corner of the colorful tiger skin.

"Liu Shi, the weddings and funerals of my Liang people have never been as much red tape as your Xuanguo, if you like it, you like it, Liu Zhu married me, even if it is not the queen of Liang in the future, she will be the noble Concubine Liang, you can rest assured."

Xia Zhengtao really didn't know the identity of "Liu Zhu", and he was only worried that his sister would be bullied when he was Liu, so he promised to take out the dowry gift prepared in the brocade box.

The brocade box closed by Liu Shi was "squeaky ......", and Xia Zhengtao opened a gap.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, my father has passed away for less than three years of filial piety, and you are acting like this now to trap me and my sister in unfilial piety!"

"Boom!" Thunderbolt, Liu Shi said while deducting the brocade box back.

At that time, he and Xia Zhengtao, the prince of Liang State, pressed one hand on both ends of the brocade box, and they were almost evenly matched.

"Three years, not long, I can wait, these are considered to be used in advance to determine the marriage, accept it for the time being, and when the filial piety period passes, I will come to marry Ling Mei."

Xia Zhengtao said, pressing the hand on the brocade box and trying to lift it, but he didn't move half a minute.

"I didn't think this tuberculosis ghost was a little capable......"

The blessings of the two forces are very appropriate, but they do not destroy the brocade box. It's just that the two little guys who are holding the brocade box in their arms, where the responsibility lies, he doesn't dare to let the brocade box fall to the ground, and he can't let the brocade box be damaged. Therefore, as the strength at both ends of the brocade box increased, he had no choice but to gradually lower his body, and the two trembling sinks.

This posture like a pincer sheep and horse is certainly uncomfortable, not to mention that he has no martial arts foundation, and in the blink of an eye, his legs have trembled more and more.

"Ah Shi is right, besides, when the filial piety period is out, Ah Zhu, who has already made a marriage, should get married, where is your turn to rob the kiss?!"

Xuanyuan Qi suddenly scolded, so frightened that the little guy who was already weak-legged immediately fell to the ground, and the brocade box also smashed on his body.

When Xia Zhengtao heard this, he immediately became angry, and he crossed his waist like Xuanyuan Qi and asked sharply.

"Married? Which family is set? Don't tell me, you bean sprouts, Zhu Niang is going to marry into your Kangwang Mansion! ”

Xia Zhengtao looked at Xuanyuan Qi, who was staring at him with round eyes, and was furious, and took it for granted that what he thought had become a fact.

It's right in front of me, the milky smell has not dried, and he hasn't even seen a beard, and next year he will marry the princess of the Han Kingdom, and he will immediately accept Liu Shi's sister, how can this work? !

The so-called urgency makes wisdom in a hurry, and it is best to describe Xuanyuan Qi's ability to make excuses.

One ring after another, one lie after another. Since this "Liu Zhu" was made up by her, her marriage is naturally up to her.

"She grew up in King Kang's Mansion since she was a child, and she was reluctant to marry her before her death, so naturally she was going to marry in the mansion, and it was him, Wang Xiaoliang!"

As he spoke, Xuanyuan Qi pulled over and looked at the lively Wang Xiaoliang, and pushed it in front of Xia Zhengtao.

Wang Xiaoliang's legs also began to tremble unconsciously, he was just a little imperial doctor, and he was most afraid of these dancing guns in his life, not to mention, this Xia Zhengtao was staring at him "tiger-eyed"?

"Let's go!"

To put it succinctly, Xia Zhengtao turned around and kicked the waist of the little guy who fell to the ground, and the mighty group of people actually dispersed like this, and even the crowd watching the excitement on the street was not interesting and dispersed on their own.

"Hmph, Prince Liang? Stupid ......"

A farce is over. The initiator, Xuanyuan Qi, pursed his lips, put on the red jade bead string, raised his head, pulled Liu Shi and Wang Xiaoliang with one hand, and went to find Mrs. Xun Yan together.

After delaying this for a long time, if I don't go to the Lantern Festival again, I'm afraid that even the most difficult lantern riddle on the lantern will be gone.
