Chapter 818: Undercurrents are surging
"Captain Kui, the queen is calling you!"
After listening to Mama Feng's words, Kui Sui hurriedly looked at Guo Shengtong, leaned over and said, "Queen! ”
Guo Shengtong smiled at him and said, "I heard that Captain Kui is strong in martial arts, gallops on the battlefield, and is invincible in bravery!" ”
Kui Xian's old face turned red, and he hurriedly bowed down and said: "The queen praises it, and Weichen is ashamed!" ”
Guo Shengtong asked with a smile: "I wonder if Captain Kui can dance a sword and let the palace and the Yin nobles, Xu Meiren, and Xi Meiren all take a look?" ”
"This ......" Kui Sui hesitated for a moment, looked up, and saw that everyone was looking at him curiously, especially Yin Lihua, a pair of beautiful eyes seemed to contain ten thousand stars, so beautiful that it was dazzling.
He took a deep breath and said, "Since the queen has a will, Weichen will ...... It's ugly! ”
As he spoke, he took a few steps back, slowly drew the saber from his side, held the hilt upside down, and showed his hand.
Then, with a low shout, he swung his sword vigorously.
In front of a stunning beauty like Yin Lihua, Kui Xun didn't want to lose face, he had the strength to eat milk, and he had the ability to do everything, a sword in his hand, sometimes quiet like a virgin, sometimes moving like a rabbit, sometimes opening and closing, wandering like a dragon, sometimes pulling out thousands of sword flowers, beautiful and beautifying.
Guo Shengtong nodded again and again while watching, picked up the teacup, and asked with a smile: "Yin Guiren, Xu Meiren, Xi Meiren, what do you think of Captain Kui's swordsmanship?" ”
Yin Lihua has also learned swordsmanship, but what she has learned is a bit of a show, and compared to her, Kui Xian's swordsmanship is naturally superior.
Xu Xiling and Xi Cheying are both swordsmanship experts, and they don't think much of Kui Xian, who dances the sword hard, in their opinion, Kui Xun's swordsmanship is flashy, and this kind of martial arts is not very useful in actual combat.
Yin Lihua didn't speak, Xu Xiling and Xi Cheying said politely: "Captain Kui is strong in martial arts, and he is not a captain of Hu Qi appointed by His Majesty!" ”
Guo Shengtong chuckled and said, "If the Yin nobles, Xu Meiren, and Xi Meiren are interested, this palace can let Captain Kui teach you swordsmanship!" In the future, if you accompany you, you can also help Your Majesty share one or two burdens in case of danger. ”
When she spoke, Kui Xun's set of swordsmanship had just finished dancing, and he held his sword, bowed to Guo Shengtong, and said: "If the queen, nobles, and beauties want to learn, it is the responsibility of Weichen." ”
After Yin Lihua heard this, her heart suddenly moved, every time she went out with His Majesty, she was just a burden, especially the last time she went to Liqiu, she met an assassin halfway, in order to save her, His Majesty and Long Yuan were injured, which made Yin Lihua feel very useless.
It would be nice if you could learn strong swordsmanship.
Thinking of this, she was about to speak, Xu Xiling winked at her, and said first: "Yin nobleman is still good to rest now, in case of fetal gas, Yin nobleman and the child in the womb are in danger." ”
Xu Xiling didn't know what Guo Shengtong's idea was, but as far as she knew about Guo Shengtong, she had nothing to do, and she must not have held back her good intentions.
Hearing her words, Yin Lihua, who was already a little excited, immediately swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, smiled at Xu Xiling, and said, "Xu Meiren reminded me that it is!" ”
Seeing this, Guo Shengtong frowned secretly, and glanced at Xu Xiling without leaving a trace, his eyes were as if he had been quenched with poison, and he couldn't wait to poke two holes in Xu Xiling's body.
Xi Cheying glanced at Xu Xiling happily and said with a smile: "Look at what Senior Sister said, it's too scary!" In fact, after a woman is pregnant, proper exercise is still beneficial, as long as there is a degree, it does not hurt the body, and it is also conducive to childbirth in the future. ”
Xu Xiling turned her head to look at Xi Cheying, she didn't believe that her senior sister couldn't see Guo Shengtong's ulterior motives, but her senior sister still helped Guo Shengtong speak, I really don't know what she thinks in her heart.
She said with a straight face: "It's good for the Yin nobles to walk outside more on weekdays, as for practicing swordsmanship, it's better to skip it, it's really fetal gas, Your Majesty blames it, who can afford it?" ”
Hearing her carry His Majesty out, Xi Cheying stopped talking, and Guo Shengtong's face became unnatural.
Yin Lihua saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward because of her relationship, so she said with a smile: "Queen, the concubines are a little tired, go back first." ”
Guo Shengtong didn't hold back, first nodded at Yin Lihua, and then said to Kui Xian, who was standing outside: "Captain Kui, send the Yin nobles back to the palace on behalf of the palace." ”
"Wechen obeys!"
Kui couldn't hide the joy on his face, and hurriedly bowed down.
Yin Lihua didn't shirk it, so she didn't say anything, got up and walked out of the pavilion, and walked out.
Kui Sui bowed slightly, and waited for Yin Lihua to walk in front of him before stepping behind her.
Xu Xiling and Xi Cheying also got up to say goodbye, and after getting Guo Shengtong's approval, the second daughter also came out of the pavilion.
When the two of them walked out of a distance, Guo Shengtong, who was sitting in the pavilion, suddenly called: "Xi Beauty! ”
Hearing this, Xi Cheying retreated to the pavilion, saluted Guo Shengtong, and said, "Queen." ”
"You're a smart man, at least, much smarter than your sister! Hongu likes to make friends with smart people, and in the future, you can often come to Changqiu Palace to walk around. ”
"Concubine, thank you Queen!"
Xi Cheying saluted Guo Shengtong again, and then walked out.
When I got out of Changqiu Palace, I raised my eyes and saw Xu Xiling waiting for me at the door.
She stepped forward and said with a smile: "Senior sister! ”
Xu Xiling looked at her with an unkind face, and said in a deep voice as she walked forward: "Good and dignified, the queen found Kui Sui and let Kui Sui dance the sword, and recommended it to the Yin nobles intentionally or unintentionally, so that he could teach the Yin nobles swordsmanship, couldn't the senior sister see the queen's ulterior motives?" ”
Xi Cheying's face was dazed, oh, and asked, "Senior sister, what does the queen think?" ”
Xu Xiling snorted heavily and said: "This Kui is cowardly, the concubines of the Son of Heaven dare to look directly, if he really lets the Yin nobles learn swordsmanship from him, maybe he will do something!" ”
"Isn't that good?"
Xi Cheying laughed.
Xu Xiling looked at her in surprise.
Xi Cheying said: "In this palace, if you want status, you and my sisters are far inferior to the queen, to be favored, you and my sisters are far inferior to the Yin nobles, a queen, a nobleman, just like two mountains pressing on our sisters, if you can move to one and self-destruct the other, why not?" ”
What kind of idea did Guo Shengtong have, Xi Cheying was like a mirror in her heart, in her opinion, Guo Shengtong was really stupid, she matched Yin Lihua and Kui Xian together, if something really happened between the two, she thought she could get out of it?
Can Your Majesty let her go?
Yin Lihua is ruined, and she, the queen, is also not good, so it is equivalent to the queen pulling the nobles to die together, and she and Xu Xiling can completely watch from the wall and enjoy the success.
She said happily: "Just now, my sister really did this too much, isn't it good to be happy to see it?"
This good opportunity was wasted. ”
As she spoke, she smiled and threw Xu Xiling a roll of her eyes.
Xu Xiling frowned, now she finally understood why her senior sister would help the queen from the side.
She said meaningfully: "Senior sister, even if there is no Empress Guo and Yin nobles in the palace, there will still be Empress Zhang, Li Guiren, Empress Wang, and Zhao Guiren, endlessly. ”
Xi Cheying shrugged disapprovingly and said, "I'm different from my junior sister! My sister believes that the destiny of heaven cannot be violated, and I believe that things are man-made. ”
"Senior sister...... Xi Cheying stopped, raised her hand, gently stroked Xu Xiling's cheek, restrained her smile, and said: "No matter when, I will not be embarrassed for my junior sister, and I hope that my junior sister can be of the same heart as me." ”
Xu Xiling looked at Xi Cheying blankly, and didn't say anything for a while.
Xi Cheying smiled leisurely, changed back to a happy appearance, waved his hand to Xu Xiling and said, "Okay, senior sister, I'm back to the palace." ”
Looking at the back of Xi Cheying's departure, Xu Xiling sighed lightly after a long time, shook his head helplessly, and returned to the Phoenix Palace with the four personal maids.
Yin Lihua returned to the West Palace, followed by Xue Ying, Hongjian, and Li Xiu'e, the three maids, Kui Xun walked quickly to Yin Lihua's side, and cautiously glanced at her.
Even if he could only see the side face, it was still incredibly beautiful, he cleared his throat and said, "Yin Guiren has also learned swordsmanship before, right?" ”
Yin Lihua doesn't have much feeling for this Kui, she is just a courtier of her husband, but relatively speaking, she is a courtier with a special and important status.
She said indifferently: "I've learned some before, but it's just a bit of a show." ”
Kui Sui's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "If the Yin nobles are interested, Weichen has a mantra for practicing qi here, as well as a sword spectrum for practicing swords, which can be given to the nobles!" ”
Yin Lihua smiled indifferently and said, "No need, it's not easy for this palace to accept such a valuable gift from Captain Kui." ”
"It's not valuable, it's not valuable, as long as the nobles like it, all the micro-ministers can be given to the nobles."
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Yin Lihua, and a pair of eyeballs were about to fly out of his sockets.
Before Yin Lihua could speak, Li Xiu'e reprimanded dissatisfiedly: "What are you looking at!" ”
Kui Xian's body was shocked, and he hurriedly withdrew his gaze, owed to Yin Lihua, and said: "Weichen is rude, please don't blame you." ”
Even if Yin Lihua is not happy in her heart, she really can't help but fake her color when she is afraid of Kui.
Kui Huan is the eldest son of Kui Huan, and the importance of Kui Huan to the Luoyang Imperial Court is self-evident, this involves national policy, and it is not for her harem concubine to interfere left and right.
She smiled and said, "Captain Kui is polite, there is the West Palace in front, and Captain Kui will send it!" ”
The Changqiu Palace and the West Palace are next to each other, one south and one north, close at hand.
It's a rare opportunity to get together with the stunning beauty, of course Kui Xun didn't want to leave so soon, he said with a smile: "The queen asked Weichen to send the nobles back to the West Palace, and Weichen must be sent to the place." ”
Li Xiu'e said with a calm face: "The noble man asked you to send it here, where did all that nonsense come from?" ”
As she spoke, she took two steps ahead of Kui and blocked his way.
Kui couldn't haunt Li Xiu'e, so she could only helplessly watch Yin Lihua go farther and farther, and finally her figure disappeared into the gate of the West Palace.
Looking back, seeing that Yin Lihua had already entered the West Palace, Li Xiu'e glared at Kui Xie fiercely, and warned in a low voice: "Kui Xun, you have made it clear to me, the noble person is not the object of your reverie, if you dare to do anything to the nobleman, I will not let you go first!" ”
After speaking, she also deliberately bared her teeth at Kui, showing a fierce warning expression, and then turned to leave.
Kui Xun didn't look at Li Xiu'e at all, nor did he hear her warning, and his whole mind had already flown into the West Palace at this time.
When Liu Xiu, Deng Yu, Jia Fu and others finished discussing government affairs, it was already afternoon, and he finished reviewing the rest of the notes, and then got up and walked out.
Out of the main hall, Zhang Kun immediately stepped forward, and Liu Xiu asked, "Is the tea party on the queen's side finished?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"How's it going?"
"It is said that the queen, nobles, and beauties all talk and laugh, and they even invite Kui Sui to dance the sword to help the fun!"
Liu Xiu was stunned, then smiled leisurely and said: "Zitong will enjoy it, no matter what you say, Kui Xun is also a dignified Lianghou eldest prince!" ”
It would be too embarrassing to let the dignified Lianghou eldest prince dance for them to dance the sword.
Having said that, the smile on Liu Xiu's face deepened a little, obviously very satisfied with Guo Shengtong's arrangement.
Kui's hustle and bustle's disobedience is obvious, and he sent a son to Luoyang to be a proton, the purpose of which is just to stabilize himself.
For Kui, if Liu Xiu humiliates him, it is indeed bullying the small, and it also shows that he is too narrow-minded, and his queen humiliates him, which makes Liu Xiu quite happy.
