Chapter 12: Cheap Father-in-law
When everyone saw that he looked funny, they couldn't help but bow their heads and snicker.
But Wang Meiren fell to her knees with a thud and sobbed: "Xianggong, I'm ...... I ......"
Xiao Gen'er thought that she was probably like this for the same reason as Zhao Ling'er, so she hurriedly went around the table and pulled her arm, helped her up, and said softly: "It doesn't have to be like this, it doesn't have to be like this." Is your name Beauty? Or is there something else to call it? ”
Wang Meiren glanced at him with a blushing face, and lowered her head shyly, "Xianggong, the concubine has another name, called Zhan'er, and the beauty is called by others." ”
"Janne? That's a good name. By the way, do you know that Mr. Wang? Xiao Gen'er finally remembered the "business" and asked softly.
Wang Zhan'er said softly: "Yes...... It's Zhan'er's father. ”
Xiao Gen'er was stunned, in fact, he had this idea for a long time, but he was not sure, he hoped that it was not his cheap father-in-law, but since it was, it was! He took Wang Zhan'er's little hand and said, "Zhan'er, your father...... Oh, where is my father-in-law? ”
Wang Zhan'er heard his "Lord Yue", and she was already overjoyed, gave him a beautiful wink, and said softly: "It's there." Xiao Gen'er looked in the direction she indicated, and sure enough, she saw an old man with white hair sitting on the left chief with his head held high, looking ahead, outstanding but not outstanding.
Xiao Gen'er took Wang Zhan'er and walked over in small steps, his eyes swept over the tables, the old men sitting together, the food in front of them was rarely touched, they all looked solemn, he thought to himself, maybe these people are also his cheap old men, those guys didn't dare to touch them. Thinking like this, he turned around and glared at the Zhang brothers, who were secretly looking here, and when they met his eyes, they shrank their necks and lowered their heads.
"Wan Linggen, meet Lord Yue!" Xiao Gen'er obediently bowed deeply, knelt down in a proper manner, and Wang Zhan'er beside him also knelt down.
"Hmm!" The old man just snorted with his nose, and didn't say anything more, which made Xiao Gen'er a little confused, he touched Wang Zhan'er beside him, "Zhan'er, what's the name of my old Taishan?" ”
Wang Zhan'er heard him say something funny, and couldn't help laughing and said softly: "Wang Bodang." ”
"Wang Bodang?" Xiao Gen'er had a flash of inspiration in his mind, how could he feel that this name was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while. He was secretly pondering, and Wang Bodang's voice sounded: "Zhan'er, you are already a woman, how can you have no rules at all, and muttered to your husband during the salute, what kind of system has it become?" ”
Xiao Gen'er said in his heart, didn't you tell me? But knowing this, I can only listen.
After Wang Bodang said this, he stopped talking, Xiao Gen'er knelt for a while, feeling that it should be about the same, looked up at Wang Bodang, and found that his gaze flashed on him, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart, and said respectfully: "Lord Yue, can I get up?" But the king said, "No! ”
Xiao Gen'er was stunned, and heard Wang Zhan'er next to him whisper: "Husband, the person next to my father is the elder of several other sisters, and the prince also wants to visit." Xiao Gen'er said in his heart that this is troublesome, he slept with someone's daughter, and he didn't know the name yet, this ugliness was going to be big.
He was secretly worried, Wang Zhan'er turned around and beckoned, and four more women sitting on the top came over and knelt beside her in turn.
Xiao Gen'er moved to the right, Wang Zhan'er gave up the seat next to him, he approached the woman, and the woman said softly: "Xianggong, the concubine is Fan Ting'er, and the head is Fan Dongyang, the father of the family." He looked up and saw that Fan Dongyang was slightly fat, although he was full of white hair, he looked kind. After the two looked at each other, Xiao Gen'er bowed respectfully and said, "Meet Lord Yue." ”
That Fan Dongyang smiled and said, "A virtuous son-in-law doesn't have to be polite. ”
After Xiao Gen'er thanked him, he moved to the right again, close to the woman next to him, the woman hesitated a little, and said in a low voice: "Xianggong, the concubine is Mei Xiangyu, and the top is Mei Fenglin, the father." ”
That Mei Fenglin's face was white and beardless, his face was furrowed, and he was very old, he raised his hand and said, "No need to be polite!" ”
Xiao Gen'er came to the last person, and the woman said in a low voice: "Xianggong, the concubine Gu Hong'er, and the head is Gu Lianting, the father of the family." ”
Although Gu Lianting didn't look very old, he looked extremely tired and looked unmotivated, and he said in a hoarse voice: "When it is very rare, these cumbersome gifts will be waived." ”
Although he only knelt down and worshiped five people, Xiao Gen'er also felt unbearable, and said in his heart that if the people at the back tables also had their family elders there, it would be bearable to worship like this. However, this reminded him of his previous experience, if it wasn't for Wan Jin Fang's spiritual pet, if he really wanted to see the family members of the twelve cheap ladies, I don't know if he would have to worship like this again.
While he was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard someone in the crowd snort, although the voice was not loud, but in the extremely quiet environment, it still seemed very abrupt.
Xiao Gen'er followed the prestige, and saw a middle-aged man with a long beard sitting in front of a table at the back of the middle, with thin eyebrows and long eyes, and a face full of disdain.
"Who are you?" Xiao Gen'er glanced at him and asked.
"Contemptible Wang Xian, what advice does the marshal have?" The man said coldly.
"Wang Xian?" He muttered to himself, "Which one is this?" ”
At this time, a woman slowly walked from the first table below, came to Xiao Gen'er and lowered her head; "Big ...... Handsome, concubine...... Concubine Wang Po, he ...... He's me...... My brother. ”
As soon as this Wang Po came over, Xiao Gen'er's heart sank, and his momentum suddenly became half shorter. According to Zhao Ling'er, the people sitting at those tables were the same as Liang Hongyu, and he had never done anything to force others, let alone women. He glanced at Wang Po, and saw that her skin was as white as snow, her eyebrows were blue, her appearance was beautiful, and she looked like she was beautiful, revealing the luxury of everyone's ladies, and couldn't help but feel even more unreasonable, and said in a low voice: "Po'er, right...... I'm sorry! ”
When Wang Po heard him say this, she was immediately stunned, raised her pale little face and looked at him fixedly, and two lines of crystal tears slipped from her eyes.
"Humph! The woman's name is as heavy as a mountain, and she was taken captive without thinking about dying to protect her innocence, and she still has a face to act like a coy here! Wang Xian spoke ill of his sister and showed no mercy to his sister.
Wang Po lowered his head, his body trembled slightly, and tears rolled down his eyes. Xiao Gen'er was already guilty, but seeing her pitiful appearance at this time, she reached out and took Wang Po in her arms, and said angrily: "Fart!" ”
Everyone was stunned, even Wang Xian was stunned, "The handsome man doesn't choose what to say, be careful of losing your identity!" ”
Wang Po's body went weak and almost collapsed. Feeling the man's warm embrace, he leaned in softly, and for a moment sadness came from it, and he couldn't stop crying.
Xiao Gen'er looked around with wide eyes, stared at Wang Xian and said in a deep voice, "Are you a man?" ”
Wang Xian was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Of course I am a man, what does the handsome man mean by this?" ”
Xiao Gen'er asked coldly, "Your sister was taken away, where are you?" ”
Wang Xian was slightly embarrassed, "I'm ...... I am alone, and there are many thieves, what can I endure? ”
Xiao Gen'er sneered: "Shouldn't men defend their families and defend the country? What is home? Your own relatives are in trouble, you don't dare to sacrifice your life to save you, and you are still talking nonsense here, I ask you, why don't you die? ”
Wang Xian opened his mouth and was speechless.
Xiao Gen'er looked at everyone and said: "When the national disaster comes, let your children and relatives be robbed as trading goods, as a man, what face do you have to talk about here?" ”
Everyone bowed their heads and was silent, even his arrogant father-in-law lowered their heads, and those women hid their faces and wept.
Wang Xianne said: "There is the emperor's order first, if you don't obey the emperor's order, it is no different from rebellion!" ”
"Really?" Xiao Gen'er waved his hand, "Whoever dares to give such an imperial order, he is no longer worthy of being a king, no different from a beast!" ”
There was silence in the field, his words completely shocked everyone, for the era of the supremacy of imperial power, his remarks were tantamount to a great rebellion, which could destroy the nine clans.
Xiao Gen'er helped Wang Po back to his seat, he also returned to the main seat and sat down, and said in a loud voice: "Since you have come here, then please remember my words, only those who are affectionate and righteous can be called people, and those who can conspire with me and others, who are full of benevolence and morality, but who are ruthless and unrighteous in doing things, please stay away!" ”
Although these words were said to everyone, Wang Xian's face was red and white when he sat there, and he was extremely embarrassed.
There was a muffled sound of thunder in the distance, and the dark clouds gradually became heavier. More than a dozen wind lanterns on the forage field flickered on and off, reflecting the figures of people near and far.
Xiao Gen'er looked into the distance, as if he saw a bright halo shining behind the heavy dark clouds, and a pair of gentle hands were beckoning to him! Everything in front of him suddenly became illusory.
"Xianggong! Messire! There was a call in his ears, he was startled, and then he came back to his senses, and then he remembered that his words were not finished, and thousands of pairs of eyes below were still looking at him. He smiled wryly: "I'm sorry, I just thought of something. Then he said loudly, "The door of the Marshal's Mansion is now open, recruiting talents, as long as you think you have talent, you can come, as long as you pass the assessment, you can immediately reuse, and those who are interested will go to Hongyu and Ling'er to report." He turned his head and asked, "Hongyu, Ling'er, do you have anything else to explain?" ”
The two of them smiled and shook their heads; "It's all up to the public arrangement."
Xiao Gen'er waved his hand, "Then let's disperse." After saying that, he turned and went back.
Everyone looked at each other, and said in their hearts that this handsome man is really strange, the wine feast is on the table, and it is over without drinking a sip of wine? However, compared to the last few words of the big handsome, it doesn't matter whether you drink this wine or not.
