Chapter Ninety-Five: Cai Jing's Birthday Banquet (4)
Jiang De looked at the person who made the sound, but it was Tang Huai, Yue Fei next to him hurriedly grabbed Tang Huai and pulled it down, Xu Guanzhong rolled his eyes, and said to Zhao Huan, "King Ding, it's not that we don't want to, but that we have already had a number of nobles in our business, and even Taishi is only one of them, otherwise Mrs. Cai and Liang Zhongshu would not be so courteous, and Chitose wants to buy shares today." Naturally, we don't dare to refuse, but I'm afraid that this will be detrimental to the king. ”
After listening to this, Zhao Huan also felt that he was Meng Lang, in this way, wouldn't he dig money from Cai Jing and others, although he is Zhao Ji's eldest son, but he is not the prince yet, even if he becomes the prince, the abolition of the prince has not happened in the past, if someone else is the emperor, Zhao Huan will not be too worried, but who is Zhao Ji? He is a son very clearly, what he says is good is called bohemianism, and what he says is ugly is to do whatever he wants, and he doesn't take any law in his eyes at all, if Cai Jing and others really attack it with all their might, then Zhao Kai, who is already loved by Zhao Ji, will be the prince within a few years.
After Zhao Huan figured it out, he didn't care about Tang Huai's evil words just now, but smiled and said, "I misunderstood, I never meant it, it's just that there are a lot of wicked people in Kaifeng City, and we are afraid that Brother Jiang will be hurt, so we said this." ”
Zhao Kai saw that Zhao Huan didn't want it, so he also said, "That's it, you are misunderstanding me, who are we waiting for?" How could this be done? ”
Jiang De looked at the two of them and said, "I do have a lot of business here ready to carry out in Kaifeng Mansion, but there is no suitable for the two princes to participate in for the time being. ”
The two princes smiled at each other, even if the page was lifted.
"A few princes and princesses, it turns out that you are here, and the official family is looking for you." A middle-aged man walked over, saw Jiang De and said, "Jiang Xiaolang, the official family specially said that he also wanted you to go, saying that the wine has passed three rounds and the food has passed five flavors, so when will you see the second birthday gift?" ”
Jiang De looked at the middle-aged man, and hurriedly said, "Jiang De has seen the fourth uncle, and the second birthday gift has been prepared, and I can show it in front of the official family." ”
Cai Qian had a good impression of Jiang De, and said, "You are very good, my sister is more willful, I am worried about whether you will also be willful, I didn't expect to be so mature and stable, and it is not easy for her to honor your aunt." ”
Jiang De replied: "Fourth uncle, don't worry, the child will be filial piety." ”
Cai Qian snorted and said, "Okay, let's go quickly, don't let the official family wait for a long time." ”
Jiang De turned around and said to Xu Guanzhong and the others, "Mr. Xu and I come, Yue Fei, you stay here, don't walk around, Yue Fei, you are optimistic about a few of them." ”
Yue Fei answered, Xu Guanzhong got up and followed Jiang De to the top of the banquet, Zhao Ji and a group of important ministers were listening to the song and dance, while talking slang and interesting things.
Zhao Ji saw Jiang De and the others coming, put down the wine glass, and asked Zhao Huan and Zhao Kai, "Where did you two go?" ”
Zhao Huan was a little afraid to speak, but Zhao Kai stepped forward with a smile and replied, "Back to Daddy, the child saw Jiang Xiaolang in front of his father before he was neither humble nor arrogant, quite extraordinary, and smelled that Jiang Xiaolang and the child were the same age but made a great career, the child thought that Jiang Xiaolang must have something outstanding, and Dad often taught the child to learn from each other's strengths, so he went to talk to Jiang Xiaolang, hoping to learn some of Jiang Xiaolang's strengths." ”
Zhao Ji nodded again and again when he heard this, looking extremely satisfied, and Zhao Huan, who was watching, said anxiously, "Child... The same is true of children. ”
Zhao Ji doesn't have many good expressions for Zhao Huan, in fact, it's simple, although Zhao Huan's mother Queen Wang and Zhao Kai's mother Wang Guifei are both pillow people when Zhao Ji was hidden in the dragon, but Queen Wang is mediocre in appearance, frugal by nature, and will not please Zhao Ji, so she has not been favored, but Wang Guifei and Queen Zheng, who was still a side concubine, were the most favored, and now that Queen Wang has died, Zhao Huan's favor is decreasing day by day.
It is worth mentioning that because Empress Zheng has an excellent relationship with Zhao Gou's mother, and the relationship with Wang Guifei is not bad, this makes Zhao Gou always bow his head in front of Zhao Kai, but in general, Zhao Kai is willing to take Zhao Gou with him for many things.
Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Kai and asked, "Then what have you learned?" ”
Zhao Kai said with an aggrieved face, "We just got our names, and we were called by my father, and we didn't bother to speak." ”
Zhao Ji stroked his beard and smiled, "In this way, it's still my fault, that's it, it's okay, Jiang De, you said you still have a birthday gift, take it and take a look." ”
Jiang De arched his hand and said, "Qiyu official, this birthday gift should be seen outside, and the official family should be invited." ”
"Bold!" Yang Jian shouted, "What is so noble, and you still want the official family to move?" ”
Cai Jing also said angrily, "Jiang De, don't be presumptuous!" ”
Jiang De said without changing his face, "This thing has to be moved by the official family, if the official family thinks it is not worth it after viewing it, it can cure the crime of the kid bullying the king!" ”
Zhao Ji waved his hand and said, "It's not that serious, okay, just that mirror is already a peerless treasure, and now the second one is probably even more rare than that, let's go, it's not too late for us to watch the song and dance after seeing the treasure." ”
As soon as Zhao Ji moved, everyone moved, only to see that under the leadership of Jiang De, the power center of the Northern Song Dynasty slowly walked into the courtyard, Zhao Ji looked at the courtyard with only guards and maids, and asked, "Where is the treasure?" ”
Jiang De arched his hand and said, "Please wait and see." Then Jiang De looked at Xu Guanzhong, Xu Guanzhong took out a small paper tube from his arms, and pulled it towards the sky, everyone only saw a small fireball rushing out of the paper tube, rushing to a height of dozens of meters, and then suddenly exploded, turning into a golden flower, and with a loud noise, the golden flower was extremely beautiful, and many men and women in the crowd applauded.
"I thought it was some kind of treasure, but it turned out to be just fireworks." A minister smiled and said, "Master Taishi, this is the so-called rare treasure, this is too much to underestimate the knowledge I am waiting for."
Liang Zhongshu, who was in the crowd, couldn't help but cover his head, he didn't expect Jiang De to actually take a small fireworks as a treasure, and said to Mrs. Cai with a smile and a smile, "Madam, this Jiang De probably treats us all as him, this fireworks is a young man or a baby, but for the Taishi and the official family, what is it?" ”
Mrs. Cai nervously tugged at the handkerchief and said, "Don't you want to underestimate my nephew, just wait!" ”
Zhao Ji also shook his head slightly, and smiled secretly in his heart, feeling that Jiang De came from a small place after all, and he didn't have much knowledge, and he felt that he was a treasure when he got a firework.
Zhao Ji looked back at Cai Jing, whose face was blue, and was about to persuade Cai Jing not to be angry, when he heard bursts of cannons, and hurriedly looked up, and found that small fireballs were constantly flying out in the distance, and the fireballs kept flying upwards, and then exploded violently, making everyone stunned not by these fireworks, but by the style of fireworks.
