Chapter 586: Where to Find Herbs

When Yan Xu and Yue Qianqiu's master and apprentice were shocked that the eldest princess of Dongyang had already seen the Empress of Beiyan, in the vertical arch hall, the emperor and Xiao Jingxian sat and stood together, plus the little fat man with a helpless face, the atmosphere was just as weird.

When he saw Xiao Jingxian sneering and regrouping the national letter into a volume, and threw it towards the little fat man as if he were treating ordinary things, he asked out loud: "Looking at the attitude of King Jin, it seems that he doesn't think so." ”

"I just thought it was funny. Xiao Changhui, the king of Lanling County, wanted Zhen Rong to be his son, but Emperor Beiyan refused to agree; I obviously don't have such a son, but the Emperor of Northern Yan stuffed people into me. He has only heard of mandarin ducks, but he has never heard of his son, so he is not afraid that Zhen Rong, who was not very willing to stay in Beiyan, would turn against him in anger because of such a foolish behavior? ”

The little fat man was immediately relieved by Xiao Jingxian's words, and hurriedly said: "Father, if Beiyan said that King Jin had a son left there, and that son was someone else, then it might be a little possible, but if it was Zhen Rong, it would be too funny." ”

"Zhen Rong was originally from Wu, if it weren't for the fact that when King Jin and Qianqiu left, he missed the hour and couldn't catch up, so it would be impossible for him to stay in Beiyan. Moreover, Qianqiu said that Zhen Rong showed a tattoo on his shoulder in Beiyan at the beginning, but at that time, Emperor Beiyan and King Jin didn't pay attention to it, why did he suddenly become the son of King Jin after only half a year? ”

Speaking of this, he clenched his fists angrily and said: "It is clear that the Emperor of Beiyan saw that the King of Jin was established in my Great Wu, and his father trusted and relied on him, and Zhen Rong was very popular in Beiyan because of his outstanding martial arts and daring to act, even the King of Lanling County was very important to people, and he made this decision because he had acted perversely before and there was a lot of opposition in the country." The first is to make his father suspicious of King Jin, the second is to make Zhen Rong unable to return to his home country, forcing him to be a Beiyan person, and the third is to suppress that Xiao Changhui by the way! ”

If it weren't for the fact that the little fat man didn't know his background, the emperor almost felt that it was not the prince who was the quasi-prince who was speaking for a Beiyan nobleman who had just defected not long ago, but the nephew who was speaking for his uncle. However, the little fat man's analysis was not unreasonable, so after he nodded approvingly at the little fat man, his eyes looked at Xiao Jingxian again.

"King Jin, I have always wanted to ask you, you have never been married in your old age, do you really plan to be so single for the rest of your life? Before, the rumors that King Jin wanted to ask to marry the daughter of the sect once caused a lot of uproar in the city, and even Da Lang asked people to inquire about the corresponding candidates, could it be that you really have such a heart? ”

The emperor no longer asked Zhen Rong if he was his son or something like that, but instead cared about his life's events, although Xiao Jingxian was a little surprised by this, he immediately laughed the next moment.

"The minister just saw too much of each other, and he was reluctant to become a husband and wife of the family; was originally in love, but later it was a resentful couple; There are also those couples who seem to raise their eyebrows, but in fact they are not the same heart at all. Over time, the minister was troublesome and never bothered to get married. If the emperor really intends to marry the daughter of the clan, it is not impossible, but the minister has to worry about causing resentment in the future. ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at the little fat man, and suddenly said meaningfully: "What about marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous man?" The minister is not the kind of peerless good man, he often plays on the spot, and the spring breeze is once, so maybe there will be a turmoil like today, such as the time when his son is left behind. Therefore, the minister does not want to burden people, and it is better to take a concubine than to marry a wife, so that she will rely on my position and power, and she will not have a grudge against me. It's just that the minister's eyes are higher than the top, and he doesn't just look at the beauty, so he once entrusted this matter to the king and Qianqiu. ”

The little fat man was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that his father really looked at him suspiciously, he said hesitantly: "There is such a thing...... Well, Erchen forgot before, and when he turned around, he must look for a beauty for King Jin with Qianqiu. ”

But as soon as he said this, he only heard Xiao Jingxian laugh lightly: "Then thank the King for bothering." ”

The emperor keenly heard Xiao Jingxian's voice, and immediately asked bluntly: "Could it be that the King of Jin has already been selected, so he entrusted Da Lang and Qianqiu?" Da Lang, who is the person in the picture of King Jin who has eyes above the top? ”

Xiao Jingxian had already hinted that the woman he fancied didn't seem to be so easy to get started with, coupled with his own selfishness, although the little fat man was taking advantage of Yue Qianqiu to be a drum patrol guard these days, and Yue Qianqiu was still a little disobedient with Xiao Jingxian because of some things, and he didn't come to the door anymore, he saw the opportunity and Xiao Jingxian, who was gradually going out as a visitor, came to meet several times and further narrowed the relationship, but he always pretended to forget about this promise to Xiao Jingxian.

But at this time, the emperor had already provoked this topic, even if he had more other thoughts in his heart, he had to stammer: "Back to my father, King Jin just entrusted it, and didn't mention who it was......"

said this, but the little fat man's eyes were round, and his puzzled gaze was eager to cut a few small holes in Xiao Jingxian's body. Finally, after a long silence, he finally waited for Xiao Jingxian to speak.

"Actually, I can't talk about the candidate, because time has passed, and the person I liked at the beginning, even if she wants to now, her family will never agree. You must know that although the emperor is the lord of this Great Wu, only the daughter of the royal family can promise marriage, and he can't force others to give his daughter, even a concubine, to me as a concubine. It's a pity, Pei Xu's concubine is actually a bit interesting. ”

If Yue Qianqiu people were here, they would definitely be dumbfounded at this moment when they heard this answer. After all, when he went to take stock of Xiao Jingxian's industries that day, he encountered Jin Cancan and Pei Zhaodi fighting, and it seemed that he had mentioned Pei Xu's concubine Pei Bao'er, Jin Cancan's tone, and he seemed to have a good impression of people.

And even if the emperor and Li Yiming's father and son are not as good as Yue Qianqiu, who is in the know, there is really a lot of consternation because of Xiao Jingxian's words at this time. Especially the little fat man almost bit his tongue, gasping in pain, but he couldn't help but shout: "Pei Xu's daughter? Then if you marry her, won't you become Pei Xu's son-in-law? ”

"If you marry her, you are a son-in-law, and as for being a side room, it naturally doesn't count. I don't think anyone from an official eunuch or a family will treat the relatives of the concubines as serious relatives, right? It's just that I didn't expect Pei Xiang, who was so beautiful in the past, to fall so quickly this time, and the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, so I had to give up. Speaking of which, it is the first time I have seen the girl's family who was able to find a way to meet me by chance, and then send me away from the left and right, crying in front of me about the bleak situation since childhood, and being bullied by my mother and sisters. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Jingxian said with a smile: "Moreover, I just casually comforted her a few words, sighed a few words of hostility in Jinling, and she was able to tell the resumes of those Jinling officials who were dissatisfied with my defection to Dawu, which shows the depth of her intentions." Isn't it a pity that I am not willing to be lonely in the boudoir and hopes to make a difference, but I push people out when they are sent to the door? It's just that I don't want to marry a wife in my life, so if she really likes someone like me, she can only be wronged. ”

The emperor's eyes have not been placed on the prime minister's back house, just the countless officials of the previous dynasty, he is enough of a headache. At this time, when he heard that Pei Xu's concubine was so deliberately in contact with Xiao Jingxian, he couldn't help but think that if this woman didn't put her mind on Xiao Jingxian, but on Li Yiming, this big fat boy might be able to hold it?

However, he glanced at the little fat man who was holding his chin at this time, and changed his mind again.

His son is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he was worried that after Xuanwu Ze heroes saved the United States, he might have any other thoughts about Cheng Qianqian of Yangzhou Cheng's family, but as a result, people sighed that the girl had revenge, her temperament was not weak, and she was good, so she put this matter aside, and now it may not be known whether she still remembers that girl.

Sure enough, the emperor was thinking so, so he only heard Li Yiming slap his hand and said: "Father, Pei Xu was the prime minister in the past, even if it was his concubine, but it was also Pei's daughter, I am afraid that after he learned about this, even if he ordered his daughter to commit suicide, it would be impossible to give someone to King Jin as a concubine, but now that he is not the prime minister, this matter is not difficult?" Pei Xu's biggest worry now should be that the wall will fall and everyone will push ......"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Jingxian sneered and said: "The King of England's words are wrong, precisely because the Pei family is not as good as it used to be, in the past, it may be possible to solve the matter by such tricks as driving out of the house or removing the name of the clan, but now Pei Xu must not bear it." You must know that the daughter of the Pei family is about to be reduced to being a concubine, hasn't this family been stripped of the last layer of skin? ”

"Besides, I, the king of Jin, am just a Beiyan man who defected halfway, such as the Pei family, even if I am reduced to the point of being disgraced, I am afraid that I still think that I am Yidi with two legs. It's unacceptable to marry my daughter as my wife, let alone take me as a concubine? I'm not you, if I can give you the concubine to the prince as a concubine, I think Pei Xu will agree. ”

Hey? found that the topic suddenly turned to himself, and the little fat man was dumbfounded, and then said angrily: "I don't want that kind of woman who is too scheming and calculating!" If you want to help, you have to be like the Zhou Sect Master of Qianqiu. Even the princess of the Northern Yan Yue Kingdom who chased her all the way to Jinling was stronger than the Pei family, because that rude woman was at least infatuated...... Ahem, a piece of sincerity! ”

Xiao Jingxian smiled at this time: "Oh? You don't like her badly, so don't, then don't you think she can match me just now, isn't she bad, but she just matches me? ”

Only then did the little fat man find out that he was taken to the ditch by Xiao Jingxian, and immediately protested: "Isn't that King Jin, don't you like her?" ”

"I said, it's just a concubine. This kind of thing of taking a concubine, I don't like it or not, she has a good appearance, a good background, good etiquette, and as for her temperament, even if she pretends to show me, at least she can get by. Maybe she's a little calculating, but as long as I can easily control it, then what's there to worry about? ”

When the emperor found out that Xiao Jingxian suddenly turned around and pulled Pei's girl and the little fat man together, he was about to speak, but when the little fat man and Xiao Jingxian came and went, the little fat man was just controlled by Xiao Jingxian, and he immediately dismissed the original idea, but just thoughtfully watched the two fight each other.

Sure enough, although the little fat man said that he had made great progress now, he was turned around by Xiao Jingxian like this, but he was finally defeated, and said dejectedly: "King Jin, you really will find a reason, I can't talk about you." ”

"I just want to tell the King that sometimes taking a wife or taking a concubine may not always be able to do as he pleases. Maybe the wife you marry back is for decoration, maybe the concubine you bring back is just an illusion in front of people, but before that, you have to marry even if you pinch your nose. You are very lucky to have met such a considerate father as the emperor, otherwise you would have already had wives and concubines around you at this time, but they would not be your favorite. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Jingxian, who had been looking at the little fat man just now, turned his head again, and after looking at the emperor, he bowed slightly: "The minister just spoke on a whim, and he was a little out of line, so please forgive the emperor." ”

"King Jin is my godson, a fist heart, it's too late for me to be happy, why blame?"

The emperor said this in his mouth, but sighed in his heart, maybe you are still his own uncle, and it is natural for your uncle to teach his nephew, not to mention that what you said is all the consciousness that a prince should have.

He was worried that the little fat man would be annoyed because Xiao Jingxian said too much, but then he saw the little fat man muttering in a low voice: "I know the good intentions of King Jin, and I also know that there are many unavoidable people in the world, but there are a lot of people around you who don't like it, isn't it boring?" What if some people don't like it at all......

"If you are not happy, you can turn it away, but just like the Pei girl mentioned by King Jin, she is willing to do it herself."

It was the emperor who interrupted the little fat man this time. He immediately hesitated slightly for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Since Pei Xu's concubine is interested in King Jin, if King Jin can accept her without making trouble in the city, I Quan should not know about it." In addition......"

The emperor paused slightly, and then said an even more astonishing sentence: "The daughter of the Cheng family in Yangzhou in the mansion of the eldest princess of Dongyang, it would be better if the king of Jin could accept them together." ”

As soon as these words came out, the little fat man was suddenly taken aback, and his face turned red, but he found that Xiao Jingxian frowned, and he was clearly reluctant, but after glancing at him, he actually showed a smile that he couldn't understand.

"Father, Miss Cheng is different from Pei Xu's concubine, Pei's daughter is her own covetousness for King Jin, Miss Cheng just wants to get rid of her wolf-hearted father, and she didn't take a fancy to King Jin, why did she have to let King Jin accept her? She said before that she wanted to learn martial arts, there are so many sects in the world, even if the White Lotus Sect or the Xuandao Hall can't do it, just pick a sect from the south and the north of the world, and let her aunt send someone to send her there, if she sees a young hero and marries her, isn't that the beauty of an adult? ”

Seeing the little fat man's face full of frankness, the emperor with a straight face suddenly laughed, and then gently patted the armrest and said, "Very good, then according to what you say." King Jin's matter, since you and Qianqiu promised him before, you two are good people to the end, send the Buddha to the west, don't agree but can't do it! ”

It was only at this time that the little fat man felt that his heart hanging in the air was gradually falling. Although he doesn't have a heart for Cheng Qianqian or likes it, and can only say that he has a slight affection, but those are the girlfriends he has been in contact with so closely, however, his father clearly doesn't like such a person to stay, so he will send people away, which just fits Xiao Jingxian's words!

There is no grass at the end of the world...... He hasn't found his grass yet!
