Chapter 23 Li Zhen, King of Yue
Hearing Wang Xiang's scream, Li Chengqian turned around and frowned and asked, "What's wrong with Wang Jiancheng?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that I accidentally twisted my foot."
Li Chengqian shook his head dissatisfiedly and said: "This official road is quite smooth, how can Wang Jiancheng still twist his foot." ”
Damn, ask your baby brother, but in the face of Li Zhi's begging eyes, Wang Xiang's heart softened, so he had to say nonsense: "A bird flew by just now, and I accidentally twisted it when I was avoiding bird droppings." ”
After moving twice, it was okay that the twist was not serious, Wang Xiang said that there was no problem, and Li Chengqian didn't say anything.
Li Zhi on the side sneered and said, "Haha, why did Wang Jiancheng make up such an indecent lie." ”
Wang Xiang's face darkened, and seeing that Li Chengqian didn't pay attention, he reached out and pinched Li Zhi's face and smiled fiercely: "You are really my little apple!" ”
Li Zhi grinned but was not annoyed, and asked curiously, "What is an apple?" ”
"Apple doesn't even know? Apples are ......" remembered that there were no apples in the Tang Dynasty, Wang Xiang explained: "Apples are a kind of fruit, round and red, sweet and crisp to eat, well, but the Tang Dynasty does not have them." ”
"Then why am I your little apple?" Li Zhi was a curious baby, and before Wang Xiang could answer, he suddenly thought of something and said humbly with an embarrassed face: "Is Wang Jian Cheng saying that I am as likable as an apple?" I'm not as good as you say. ”
Wang Xiang squinted at Li Zhi, who felt good about himself, and said lightly: "Do you know that there is another feature of Apple?" ”
"What are the characteristics?"
"Undercut."
……
Along the way, Li Zhi didn't mention the matter of Xiao Loli again, Wang Xiang finally breathed a sigh of relief, it is not a good thing to give King Jin a love counseling class, and it is more serious than instigating King Jin to drink.
Aunt Lin got the news early in the morning that the crown prince and the king of Jin were going to the mansion for dinner tonight, and everything was ready. Although Li Zhi explained to Li Chengqian how to eat hot pot, he was still taken aback when he saw the big pot in the middle of the table.
"The hot pot eating method invented by Wang Jiancheng is very heroic."
Wang Xiang smiled and thought to himself, what is this, have you never seen a more exaggerated way of eating in later generations, compared to fried rice that can be eaten by hundreds of people, this is a drop in the bucket.
The three of them sat down separately, and the beef bone soup was stewed in the pot, although the hot pot base had not yet been put in, the rich aroma of meat had begun to overflow, and Li Chengqian finally did not mention the problem of cattle this time.
At first, he had only heard of the name Wang Zixin from others, and even if he heard that he did not join King Wei's Literature Museum after winning the first place in the poetry club, he only had a slight impression of him, and did not think too much about it. It wasn't until Li Shimin asked him to go to Sinong Temple to supervise Xiangrui's things that he knew that the potatoes were actually offered by Wang Xiang, coupled with Li Zhi's performance, at this time Li Chengqian had a greater interest in Wang Xiang. After contact, he found that Wang Xiang was not submissive in front of him like others, even if he was respectful on the surface, but there was less awe in his bones, and some actions could even be said to be presumptuous, but he seemed to be accustomed to it.
Looking at Wang Xiang and Li Chengqian, who were talking and laughing freely with Li Zhi, Li Chengqian had a feeling: This person will not be simple in the future.
Seeing that the beef bone soup was almost stewed, Wang Xiang lifted the lid of the pot and was about to put the prepared hot pot base into it, but saw the little girl running in with a panicked face.
"Young master, Dazhu and Erzhu are fighting with people outside!"
"What's going on?" Wang Xiang asked depressedly, he couldn't eat a meal.
Xiaoya bowed her head and said, "I, I don't know." ”
Wang Xiang sighed helplessly, and Li Zhi said with a smile: "Wang Jian Cheng, go and take a look, I know how to eat this hot pot." ”
"That's fine." Wang Xiang confessed and went out with Xiaoya.
Outside the door of Lin Chuanhou's mansion, the big pillar and the second pillar stood at the door like two door gods, opposite was a teenage ghost, looking at the dress is also either rich or expensive, at this time is the two hands crossed the waist and the eyebrows are cold, on the ground in front of him lay a few people dressed as family members, one by one either hugging their knees wailing or holding their arms and moaning, obviously being beaten by the big pillar and the second pillar.
A bewitching-looking man next to the little ghost pointed at the big pillar and the second pillar and said angrily: "What a big boldness, do you know who is standing in front of you!" ”
Dazhu pursed his lips and didn't care about his words at all, and said in his heart: Who do you care about, our young master is having dinner with the prince and His Royal Highness the King of Jin, could it be that your background is bigger than the prince and the king of Jin.
Da Zhu's disdainful expression completely angered the little ghost, and he roared loudly towards a small guy following behind him: "Go, go to the mansion and mobilize the king's personal guards to come over, I will demolish this Lin Chuan Hou Mansion!" ”
Wang Xiang, who walked to the door, was startled when he heard the next half of the sentence, Nima, who is so arrogant that he actually wants to demolish my Hou Mansion.
When I went out, I found that the leader was a ten-year-old ghost, and I was immediately unhappy: "Which little ghost, don't make trouble, your mother called you home for dinner." ”
The little ghost didn't know who Wang Xiang was, but seeing him come out of the Hou Mansion, he also knew that he must be from the Hou Mansion, and asked coldly: "Who are you, how do you know that the queen mother called me home for dinner?" ”
Holy, Queen Mother? Could it be that this little ghost is still Li Zhi's brother......
Wang Xiang's cold sweat suddenly fell, the queen's jokes can't be made, and if Li Er's feelings for the eldest grandson queen don't make a big mess, then it can be regarded as mercy. Seeing that the big pillar and the second pillar were still there, Wang Xiang hurriedly waved his hand at them and whispered, "You guys go in first." "The pestle that beat the prince and is still grinning is really enough here.
"Ahem." After the big pillar and the second pillar reluctantly entered, Wang Xiang coughed dryly and said with a smile: "It turned out to be a little prince, under the new prince, I don't know what the little prince came over today?" ”
"You're Prince Xin!"
The little ghost didn't speak, but the man next to him, who was more bewitching than a woman, spoke, and looked at him with a look in his eyes that was quite unfriendly, and there was a thick resentment in his anger, which made Wang Xiang's heart tremble.
Wang Xiang was very sure that he didn't know the demon man in front of him.
Nima, it won't be the new heavy taste of the previous prince, so that everyone is now coming to the door.
Just when Wang Xiang was thinking wildly, the more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt.
"Helan Facao, is he the prince who took your wife?"
Wife-snatching? It turned out that it wasn't what he thought, Wang Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: The previous Wang Zixin was indeed quite a bastard, and it was not impossible to do such a thing as snatching his wife...... Wait, Helan Facao? Helan ......
The demon man said with an indignant face: "I even gave a dowry to the martial lady, but today the martial brothers came to the door to withdraw from the family, saying that they were forced by others, and they revealed that it was the prince of the Marquis of Linchuan who forced them to withdraw from the family. His Royal Highness the King of Yue, I will forget if this prince humiliates me, but as the Facao of the Yue Palace, he is humiliating the Yue Wangfu and humiliating His Highness. ”
Wang Xiang's mouth opened into an "O" word, King Yue? This little ghost is Li Shimin's eighth son, Yue King Li Zhen? And this demon man turned out to be Helan Yueshi, the husband of Wushun in history! Wang Xiang suddenly felt that he had done a very great thing - to save Wushun.
The demon man said with emotion, and he almost squeezed out two tears, feeling that Li Zhen's gaze was becoming more and more unkind, Wang Xiang hurriedly explained: "His Royal Highness King Yue, I have been married to the lady of the martial family for a long time, how can I be regarded as a wife." ”
"Nonsense, when I mentioned family affairs with the martial brothers that day, they said that the martial arts lady had never been married! You're humiliating people! The demon man's madness is still quite terrifying, with slender orchid fingers, slightly raised eyebrows, coquettish little eyes, and the greasy "people" almost didn't scare Wang Xiang to vomit to death.
"Helan Facao has said so, and you still don't return his wife to him."
"Why does His Royal Highness King Yue believe what he says?" Wang Xiang finally calmed down and asked unevenly.
"He is the Facao of this king's mansion, why don't I believe him?"
Li Zhen's natural appearance suddenly made Wang Xiang burst into tears, this little ghost is too unprincipled, not as cute as his brother at all.
Li Zhi was happily slicing mutton in the hall, naturally not knowing that Wang Xiang was praising him for his cuteness.
"Brother Prince, do you think this hot pot is delicious?"
"Well, this way of eating is really fresh, and the food is eaten in a hot soup, which has the aroma of the soup without losing the original taste of the food."
Wang Xiang wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said: "That is, Lord Helan was deceived by the Wu brothers, and my relationship with Miss Wu was set by my father and the old man of the Wu family when he was alive, and many people know about it." ”
Li Zhen turned her head to look at Helan Yueshi and asked, "Is that so?" ”
Helan Yueshi gritted his teeth and said, "This is just his side of the story. ”
In fact, after the Wu brothers went to his mansion to withdraw from their relatives, Helan Yueshi sent someone to investigate, and naturally knew about Wang Xiang and Wu Shun's marriage, but this matter was related to his face, so he was reluctant to admit it.
"Helan Facao said that this is just your words."
Seeing Li Zhen's distrustful look, Wang Xiang knew that this little ghost was starting to be unprincipled again, so he had to say: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Jin also know about this matter. ”
"Brother and Ninth Brother of the Prince?" I was a little surprised to hear Wang Xiang mention the crown prince and Li Zhen, the king of Jin.
"Yes, the martial arts brother deceived Lord Helan for the sake of the dowry, and did not inform the martial lady of the marriage with me, and today His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Jin also went to the martial family with me, and they also know about it."
Li Zhenxu nodded matter-of-fact and said, "Well, since the prince's brother and ninth brother also know, it must really be Helan Facao who was deceived by the martial brothers." He Lan Yueshi turned his head and glanced at him comfortingly: "Don't blame Wang Zixin for this matter, forget it, it's the martial brothers who are too hateful." ”
After comforting Helan Yueshi, Li Zhen asked Wang Xiang, "What about the prince's brother and ninth brother?" ”
"I'm eating hot pot at my house, and I came out to see when I heard that there was something at the door."
"Hot pot?" Li Zhen said to Helan Yueshi: "You take someone back first, I'm going to find the prince's brother and ninth brother." ”
This time it was Helan Yueshi's turn to burst into tears.
However, he finally understood why the martial brothers would rather offend themselves than come to withdraw from the marriage, it turned out that Wang Xiang had the support of the prince and the king of Jin behind him, and it seemed that this loss was decided.
Looking at Li Zhen, Helan Yueshi Demon Ye, who followed Wang Xiang in, a touch of anger appeared on his face, Wang Xiang had no choice for the time being, this breath could only come out of the martial family!
