Chapter 68: The Game of Billiards
Grandma Jinji, Hanahime and Sava have returned from North Korea, and the palace is even more lively.
Of course, Ye Zhao also knew that his good and wandering son was afraid of coming to an end, just the day before Jin Feng and the others returned to Guangzhou, Han Jinchun and Harwich attacked Hangzhou, the last important town of the Taiping Army, and Qin Yuegang, the king of Yan, was killed in battle, and the second and third towns of the Pingyuan Army immediately marched to Nanjing.
It won't be long before the banner of the Pingyuan Army covering the sky will gather under the city of Nanjing, and the four towns of the Pingyuan Army, the patrols and logistics of the various roads, plus the people requisitioned from all over the country, the troops of the Southern Dynasty for the general attack on Nanjing are afraid of no less than 100,000 people.
Looking at the telegrams from the front line, Ye Zhao couldn't help but be enthusiastic, to eradicate the chaos in modern history that caused hundreds of millions of people to suffer heavy disasters, he had to finish his work in one battle, and his own subordinates, unknowingly, had hundreds of thousands of horses at their disposal, and under his own order, countless soldiers cut the flag, marched forward bravely, and the rolling iron flowed, who is the hero of the world who resists?
However, in front of the wives and concubines of Rong'er, Jin Feng, Hua Ji, and Shawa, Ye Zhao naturally became a lazy and good husband.
Next to the music room of the lotus building is the dance room, which is inlaid with glass mirrors of excellent quality on all sides, produced by Ye Zhao's project team, and the back of the mirror is coated with silver, which is not much worse than the clarity of the mirror in later generations.
In the corner of the dance room, there is a billiard table, the nightclub in Guangzhou has a billiard room, of course, in the plastic has not come out today, most of the billiards are made of wood, as for the billiards in the Regent billiards room, it is naturally carefully carved and polished with ivory.
Ye Zhao and his wife and concubine played fifteen ball points, fifteen billiards, from 1 point to 15 points, the five people took turns to hit the ball, and finally calculated the win or loss by the score.
And the charming wives and concubines with different styles in the four rooms played billiards together, the sound of warblers and swallows, and the room was full of spring, Ye Zhao himself was inevitably dazzled by the gorgeous brilliance of his wives.
Jin Feng is wearing a red cheongsam with a sense of surname, meat stockings, red high heels, a graceful figure, and a graceful posture, exuding seductive maturity and charm in every move.
Sava snow-white gauze skirt, towering peaks under low-cut white gauze, deep cleavage, men's eyes can no longer pull it out, oppressive snow-white long legs are exposed to the air, silver high heels, silver nail polish, and a hot body is mouthwatering.
Huaji Yi ethnic costume, embroidered red cloth skirt, silver sparkling collar on the pink neck, white and tender pink legs, a thin platinum anklet tied on the soft ankles, purple nail polish on the toes, snow-white barefoot stepping on the red carpet, that kind of timid and delicate, can arouse men's lust the most.
As for Rong'er, it is a red plaid uniform skirt, she doesn't wear thin cotton socks at home, her slender and crystalline little beautiful legs, the fine beauty makes her heart tremble, and the delicate little red leather shoes make Ye Zhao's mouth dry for a while, and he forcibly suppresses the idea of pressing the small skirt on the billiard table like a beast to lift the hem of the small skirt and correct the law on the spot.
can play billiards with such four delicate babies who want their lives, where can Ye Zhao calm down? I can only look at it but not eat it, and I can't help but sigh secretly, it's just murder, murder.
The nail polish used by the wives and concubines is all produced by Ye Zhao, but it is actually mixed with various flower juices, the shortcomings are obvious, it can't last, and it won't look like it fades in two or three hours, but fortunately, the wives and concubines are not serious people, even if Jin Feng is running around outside, she loves beauty tightly, and she always has enough private space for her to make up and dress up.
In front of Rong'er and Jin Feng, Shawa and Hua Ji were very restrained, and they didn't dare to say much, although they all wanted Ye Zhao's tightness, but they were as enthusiastic and unrestrained as Shawa, and they didn't run up to hug Ye Zhao's intimacy, let alone Hua Ji, who was timid, didn't dare to look at Ye Zhao.
Although Sava is Russian, she also knows the rules of China, and she is even more intimidated by her mother, knowing that the wife of a powerful man can sell her at will, and she is like a little sheep in front of Rong'er and Jin Feng.
And in Hua Ji's eyes, Rong'er and Jin Feng are the main mothers, and she is very afraid of the living, does the main mother still need to say it?
The order of the five people hitting the ball, Ye Zhao is the first, Rong'er is second, Jin Feng is third, Hua Ji is fourth, and Shawa is fifth, Ye Zhao is finally playing a little bit behind Shawa, if it is Hua Ji, I am afraid that I will take care of making a ball for myself, although Shawa secretly pleases herself, but she finally doesn't dare to do it too obviously, for fear of being sold by Rong'er or Jinfeng, right? Ye Zhao snickered in his stomach when he thought about it.
Ye Zhao's billiards skills are really ordinary, among the four wives and concubines, Jin Feng plays the best, but she never scores more than Rong'er, whether she has a handicap or not, how can Ye Zhao not see it?
Rong'er and Hua Ji's skills are numb, Sava played billiards in Petersburg, which is better than Rong'er and Hua Ji's skills, but she didn't dare to score too much, and secondly, the position left by the white ball could not make Ye Zhao too uncomfortable, so she scored the lowest score.
After playing a few games, Ye Zhao couldn't help but feel bored, what kind of game is billiard? It's just fighting in the heart, the score arrangement is the same as the batting order, and he is also the first, Rong'er is second, Jinfeng is third, Hua Ji is fourth, and Sava is the last child.
"No, no, let's make a bet!" Waiting for the little maid to set the ball, Ye Zhao had an idea.
Jin Fengxiao glanced at Ye Zhao diligently, naturally understanding Xianggong's thoughts, it was not interesting to play like this.
"In this way, Rong'er and Shawa are in a group, Jin Feng and Hua Ji are in a group, and they are playing black eight balls, and if any group loses, they will be punished for listening to Eniang's nagging with me at night."
The women looked at each other, but naturally they had no objections.
Ye Zhao calculated the strength of the four of them, Jin Feng's ball skills are the best, but the gap between Shawa and her is not very obvious, Rong'er is much more powerful than Hua Ji, this kind of grouping is also balanced, two groups like this, to make each other's balls, the personal wins and losses between each other are not very obvious, not to mention that the bet is to accompany themselves to see their mother, for them, this is a good reward, so I am afraid that they will go all out to win, Jin Feng does not dare to fight for the opportunity to accompany herself to see her mother alone, Rong'er will not deliberately lose, this is interesting.
Sure enough, after the kick-off, the batting level of all the wives and concubines was significantly higher, even if Hua Ji was very serious about calculating the hitting line, and it was no longer like just a casual stab.
Ye Zhao took the iced soda and watched the excitement while drinking it on the side.
And hitting billiards, encountering angles, inevitable, pink legs and jade arms, curve temptation, Ye Zhaoke feasted his eyes.
When he saw Jin Feng's soft little waist lying flat on the table, his hips were rolling over and his stockings were beautiful, Ye Zhao leaned over, pretending to look at the angle, and couldn't help but reach out and gently touch her thin waist, Jin Feng glanced at him, his eyes were like silk, "Master, if I lose, it's yours." ”
Ye Zhao laughed, Rong'er couldn't reach the white ball, Ye Zhao hugged her and let her hit the ball, and couldn't help but take the opportunity to kiss her crystal pink little pink neck, Rong'er blushed and didn't squeak, just concentrated on playing.
In the end, Jin Feng and Hua Ji lost, Ye Zhao was happy, and was about to think of some new tricks, when the little maid came to pass the word, but the old lady heard that Rong'er didn't go to school today, and she missed Rong'er.
Rong'er is very loved by the old lady, and she is very cute in itself, coupled with the old lady's thoughts, it must be that the wife is partial to support the wife, and it is understandable to favor Rong'er.
Rong'er went to accompany the old lady, Ye Zhao smiled and asked Jin Feng and Shawa to have a plate, and took a ball of flower balls, indicating that Shawa would hit the color ball, and Jin Feng let Shawa have a ball.
In this way, there is no such thing as who wins or loses, and the two will have competition when they play, so it will naturally be interesting to play.
Taking them to play billiards is meant to give them an extra fun game, and if it can't be relaxed, it will be too boring.
Sitting back on the sofa, sucking soda, he beckoned to Hanahime and smiled, "Come, come here." Hua Ji came over timidly and sat down beside Ye Zhao.
And Jin Feng and Sava were really interested, Ye Zhao smiled: "It's fun, let's go to the outside club another day and form a team to play with them, that's interesting." ”
Jin Feng was moved, bit her red lip, and said, "Master, can you say that it doesn't count." "The noble and charming Mrs. Kuo, cheongsam and stockings, holding a club, is a different kind of temptation.
Ye Zhao smiled: "When did I speak and not count?" ”
Sava shot down two balls in succession and put them into the pocket, Jin Fengke didn't care about talking to Ye Zhao, turned around to study the billiards situation, Ye Zhao's heart was blinked, he looked sideways at Hua Ji, and kissed her pink little face, Hua Ji's face was red, and she didn't dare to squeak.
Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Come, barefoot?" Show Brother Ye if his feet are dirty? Looking at Hua Ji's snow-white feet with purple nail polish and a strange appearance, Ye Zhaose's heart was moved.
Hua Ji's face was even redder, and she didn't dare to look at Ye Zhao.
Ye Zhao glanced at the second daughter who was playing billiards over there, and said that it didn't seem like the time to bully Hua Ji now, so he smiled and asked, "Is North Korea fun?" ”
Hanahime snorted.
Ye Zhao smiled: "But I heard that their folk women are not ashamed, and their clothes are not decent, aren't they?" Did you choose a good seedling? ”
Hua Ji finally spoke, her voice delicate and mellow: "There are a few, all of them are bought with money." As he spoke, his face turned pale, thinking that he remembered the tragic fate he had experienced.
Ye Zhao nodded slightly, and his goddaughter asked Jin Feng to bring a letter to herself, saying bad things about the Fengyang Zhao family, which made Ye Zhao secretly funny.
And this time Jin Feng took Hua Ji Shawa to North Korea, and there was an unexpected discovery, Jin Feng said that Shawa used to have a lot of knowledge about the laws of the Southern Dynasties, but Ye Zhao didn't know this, and he was a little embarrassed to think about it, as if he didn't really care about what she was doing, and he didn't know what he was doing to learn legal knowledge.
Hua Ji and Shawa, Ye Zhao has also thought about it for a long time, they can't really sing and dance for a lifetime, they will be artists in later generations, but now, their status is extremely low, and they don't want to stuff them in the house, so what is the difference between the life of these two little girls and the walking dead? Although the vast majority of women today live their lives like this, since they have become their own women, they must be allowed to enjoy life, enjoy freedom, and enjoy everything that future generations of girls can enjoy, so that they can be regarded as the right ones, and they will not be in vain to play with themselves.
Since Sava is interested in the legal aspect, it is easy to arrange, and the Southern Dynasty is also preparing to set up a similar Western adjudication committee and other institutions, which is a better supplementary way in the case of imperfect laws today, which is a semi-official and semi-civil organization, dealing with some relatively small commercial and civil disputes, with a certain degree of legal binding, but if one of the two parties to the judgment thinks it is unfair, it can appeal to the court and formally go through the legal process.
This kind of institution will be a more acceptable form of mediation for the people who are influenced by traditional Chinese thought and are secretive about the Yamen culture, which will make the people feel transparent and open, not as terrible as the Yamen, and further inculcate the concept of a judicial society in the people.
Sava has an arrangement, what about Hanahime? Ye Zhao pondered, so he asked Hua Ji with a smile: "Hua Ji, apart from dancing and singing, what else do you like to do?" ”
Hua Ji shook her head blankly, she couldn't say she liked anything, she couldn't say she didn't like anything, she had been going with the flow all her life and letting others arrange it, now her biggest hope is that Brother Ye is happy every day, and on the day she dies, she can still be by Brother Ye's side and not be kicked out.
Ye Zhao looked at her and sighed softly in his heart, okay, let's take a look again, anyway, now that Hua Ji is learning to read and write, she is not in a hurry.
"You've lost!" Jin Feng smiled diligently and twisted Shawa's snow-white face, winning like this is really comfortable from the heart, glanced at Ye Zhao, and said in his heart that the master is the master, and everything is fresh and interesting.
Touching the cue in his hand, Jin Feng was in a trance, in this life, I really didn't expect to meet such a man, like mountains and seas, under his wings, there is no need to worry about anything, and the vast world outside, let you soar, tired and tired, fly back to his side and lean on, simply, like a dream, with him, there are countless novel and interesting things, endless, so interesting, so wonderful.
This kind of saying, even if you can live a day and die, is it worth it, but now you say that you live in happiness, do you have such a great blessing?
Suddenly, Jin Feng's eyes were a little red, she put down her club, walked over, and sat next to Ye Zhao, the familiar fresh smell was her reliance.
Jin Feng's soft body gently leaned on Ye Zhao's shoulder, and Ye Zhao smiled: "What's wrong?" Jin Feng didn't squeak.
Seeing Jin Feng and Hua Ji sitting next to her sweetheart one by one, she naturally ran over to join in the fun, sitting on the red carpet in front of Ye Zhao, looking at Ye Zhao and smirking, the pair of snow-white crystal long legs were crossed on one side, and the crimson carpet was under her, which was even more tempting.
Ye Zhao looked at his beloved wife and concubine, who were as delicate as flowers, and they were all quietly by his side, he had long lost his desire, and sighed softly in his heart, the good night was short, and he could live a few more days like this, he was really happier than a fairy.
However, Ye Zhao's immortal is naturally poor sometimes.
At the end of June 1859, Han Jinchun and Harwich broke through Hangzhou, the last important town of the Taiping Army, and Qin Yuegang, the king of Yan, died in battle, and the second town and the third town of the Pingyuan Army immediately joined forces with Su Hongniang's department in southern Anhui.
