Volume 1: Who Breaks the Void by the Stars Chapter 50 Is there a shortage in the palace?
As the whistle blows, the winner of the ball game is decided.
This ball game was not as sensational as Ye Chang imagined, most of the people who were deceived by the "Buddhist matter" dispersed, and there were only more than 1,000 people from the beginning to the end. But this is enough, these more than 1,000 people are either rich or free, and it is conceivable that the football game will spread with them.
Xiao Bailang became the star of the game, and when he was about to leave triumphantly with the victorious team, he saw Qin Qinshou running over in a hurry.
"Shopkeeper Qin, is the store running out of water when you're so busy?" Because they were familiar with each other, Xiao Bailang was cheap, so he began to ridicule Qin Qinshou.
"You scoundrel, it's good luck to meet Eleven Lang! Hugh go, Hugh go, there are nobles to come, you wait all the queues here, there are nobles to give you awards! ”
As I said in advance, the winner will have a prize, and the prize is worth dozens of yuan, and if it is distributed to everyone, you can also get a few yuan - even in Chang'an, it is a lot to earn this amount by playing football.
"Noble? What kind of nobleman, could it be which dignitary? ”
Qin Qinshou slapped Xiao Bailang's bald head, looking at his eyes, he was full of jealousy: "It's your lord, your lord, the youngest daughter of today!" You mischievous man, if you hadn't met Shiyi Lang, how could you have such luck! ”
"Your lord!" Xiao Bailang suddenly panicked, and he muttered, "Our brothers are all covered in stinky sweat, like this...... Won't this clash with your lord? ”
"That's why I'm here, let's go, come with me to the temple to bathe and change clothes!"
A group of them followed Qin Qinshou and ran to Qinglong Temple, sealed a courtyard with a well, stripped it naked, and washed themselves thoroughly with well water. Then put on the clothes prepared in the temple - naturally they are all robes, and they are all bright and sparkling bald heads, but they are all high-ranking monks.
"In a hurry, it can only be like this...... Well, the nobleman is waiting a little impatiently, go quickly! ”
Qin Qinshou was busy at this time, and he was very happy in his heart. There is no other reason, just Fang Cai, he placed in the right army fan store in the Qinglong Temple, and sold more than 400 fans. Although most of them were just ordinary fans with bamboo handles, they also brought him a hundred gross profits. It can be said that the money that Ye Chang asked him to invest in these games has been all earned back today, and this makes him see more opportunities to make money.
The monks of the Qinglong Temple beat the gongs and drums and sang in the midst of the excitement, Xiao Bailang brought his brothers into the venue, and then saw Ye Chang standing there with an embarrassed face, holding a plate in his hand, and there were fifteen big coins on the plate, each of which was also worn with a red ribbon, which looked very good.
These fifteen big coins are shining gold, and they are actually cast in gold!
"Your lord, I really don't need such a precious reward, and besides, I have prepared the prize." Ye Chang whispered to the little Dao Gu in front of him.
Xiao Daogu, who pursed her mouth because of nervousness, shook her head vigorously: "Yours yours, I'll reward me!" ”
Although she said it like a tongue twister, Ye Chang still understood what she meant, since she was the one who presented the award, then naturally she had to use the prize she prepared. Just now, she took out all the gold coins she was carrying, because it was not enough, so she borrowed from Yuzhen and the rest of the princesses, and only collected fifteen coins.
Datang minted a small number of gold coins with round square holes, which were only used as rewards and were hardly circulated in the market. Taking this as a prize and tying a red silk ribbon is very similar to the gold medal issued by later generations. Taking such a valuable thing as a reward, Ye Chang felt very sorry for Aunt Xiaodao, but the insect girl insisted on it.
If he knew that this was a means used by the little insect girl to attract his attention, he was afraid that he would sigh even more: directly giving him these fifteen coins would attract his attention even more.
Fifteen bald heads walked over, and it was Xiao Bailang who walked in the front, Ye Chang pouted at him, his right knee bent slightly, Xiao Bailang understood the meaning, when they arrived in front of the insect mother, Xiao Bailang took the lead, knelt down on one knee, imitated the appearance of Yulin Army, and bowed on one knee.
"Give them the prize." Ye Chang reminded the insect mother in a low voice.
Worm Niang put money around the necks of these fifteen people, at first she only did it because of Ye Chang's proposal, and later, she herself liked this feeling.
It is up to you to reward others and get the gratitude and respect of others......
She was only nine years old, and she was born with a slight deficiency, which made her a little petite, so those bald scoundrels seemed to be taller than her even when they were on one knee. Ye Chang followed behind her, and found that he seemed to have become a eunuch waiting for his master, which made him a little depressed.
Princess Yuzhen watched this scene from a high place, smiled slightly, and the man next to her who had just reprimanded Ye Chang frowned: "Eldest princess, it seems that something is wrong with the insect lady like this." ”
"What's wrong, born in the emperor's family, but cultivated this kind of temperament, my brother was too harsh to treat the insect mother that day." Princess Yuzhen glanced at the man: "If it's like treating your family like a relative, where can I worry about it?" ”
The man smiled and said no more.
His surname is Zhang Mingyan, and he is the second son of former Prime Minister Zhang Shuo, Princess Shangning. Unlike the insect girl who is not favored by Li Longji, Princess Ning was very happy with Li Longji, and Li Longji even allowed Zhang Yan and Princess Ning to build a mansion in the imperial city, and even visited their house in person. He raised his eyes and looked at Ye Chang, only to feel that this handsome young man was extremely annoying.
Ye Chang didn't know that Lu Dao had offended another concubine, that is, Zhi Lu Dao, and he didn't care, after Zhi Lu Dao's brother died at the hands of Princess Xianyi's concubine mansion, he didn't have any good feelings towards Li Tang's concubines.
After the prizes were distributed, the insect girl, who was so serious and nervous that she was sweating, finally revealed her little girl's nature and ran back to Princess Yuzhen in a bouncing manner. Probably because Princess Yuzhen pushed this matter to her, she treated Yuzhen a little affectionately, and whispered something in Yuzhen's ear.
Yu Zhen's eyes widened, revealing a look of disbelief, and then spoke to the insect girl in a low voice. Zhang Yan next to him came up to listen, but was driven away by Yu Zhen waving his hand, and the little insect girl nodded, indicating that her attitude was serious.
Ye Chang gave a few low orders at this time, sent Xiao Bailang away, and then returned to Princess Yuzhen, Qin Qinshou followed him a little nervously.
"Nobleman, this person is the sponsor of this ball game, and he is willing to offer the right army fan and the nobleman, and he does not know the meaning of the nobleman, and he does not dare to make an assertion, so he will bring him to see the nobleman."
Qin Qinshou was pushed forward by Ye Chang, and his whole body trembled with excitement. This is Princess Yuzhen, among the women who lead the fashion and trend in Xijing in the Tang Dynasty, she can definitely be ranked among the top three! Compared with He Zhizhang, she has more publicity value and has a wider influence!
"Oh, the right army fan...... Is that the folding fan? ”
"Exactly." Qin Qinshou's words were a little vague at first, and then it became clear: "The villain is only an inch, and he still hopes for the grace of the nobleman!" ”
A beautiful box was presented, and soon it reached Yuzhen's hand, and when Yushou opened the box, he saw a jade fan in it. She gently opened the fan, on which were painted exquisite pictures of ladies, which were handwritten by famous artists, as well as the poems of fine brushwork: silver candle autumn light cold painting screen, light Luo small fan fluttering fireflies, the night of the heavenly steps is as cool as water, sit and watch the morning glory Vega.
Yuzhen immediately fell in love with this gift, whether it was the painting on it or the poem.
"Who wrote this poem?"
"When the villain first arrived in Chang'an, he heard it by chance, so he wrote it down, I really don't know who the author is." Qin Qinshou lowered his head and replied respectfully: "The villain also inquired and searched everywhere, but he couldn't get it." ”
"Alas...... I really want to meet the author of this poem. Yu Zhen's wonderful eyes wandered, and he looked at Ye Chang: "Could it be that he is a character who occasionally gets a wonderful pen in a dream like Ye Langjun?" ”
Ye Chang smiled and said: "A certain person is a mediocre person, just copying the poems he saw in his dreams, but he has no wonderful pen." However, the fool has a thousand thoughts, and occasionally there is a certain person who has heard such a sentence, a good chicken, not necessarily the chicken that gave birth to this chicken. ”
"Huh?" Yu Zhen's eyes lit up when he heard it.
Love to eat eggs, but you don't have to know the hen that lays eggs, this sentence appeared in this era, especially the Tang Dynasty, which pays attention to drinking water and thinking about the source, really has a kind of deviant power. In the genetic character of the Li Tang clan, there was originally some deviant flavor in it, especially for Princess Yuzhi.
"It's a wonderful saying, no wonder even Twenty-Nine Niang has a mind to summon you into the palace to accompany you." Princess Yuzhen pondered Ye Chang's words for a moment, and then said with a smile.
Ye Chang suddenly felt that the season had suddenly turned to a harsh winter. He clearly felt that he was creepy.
How do normal people enter the palace? The unfinished meaning of Yu Zhen's sentence can't be heard by others, how can Ye Chang not hear it!
Only eunuchs can enter the palace!
"What's the matter, Ye Langjun is willing?" Yuzhen asked with a smile again.
Among the people who followed Li Xia, some people became more and more jealous of Ye Chang, the princess was favored, how could he refuse! But the smarter ones also understood what Yu Zhen meant, and looked at Ye Chang with a wicked smile one by one, only Yan Zhenqing's face was pale, and he almost jumped up.
If Ye Chang agrees to this matter, Yan Zhenqing will inevitably break off relations with him, and he will have to mess up the matter before breaking off the relationship.
"Why don't Ye Langjun agree to come down, this noble man is the eldest princess of Yuzhen." Li Xia next to him also understood what Yuzhen meant, and smiled and laughed.
"Yes, yes, if this wonderful person enters the palace, I have to walk around with you more." Zhang Yan also smiled evilly.
Yu Zhen's attitude is obvious, and he clearly regards Ye Chang as a first-class courtier, rather than as a talent. Otherwise, how could he say such words that he was going to be castrated into the palace! For a true Confucian scholar, this is a great humiliation.
Ye Chang is not a Confucian scholar, and of course he doesn't want the eunuch to fall. He smiled bitterly: "Fang Cai told the nobleman that he likes to eat chickens, but he doesn't necessarily have to know the old hen of chickens." ”
"Ah...... Hehe, that's a wonderful person. ”
This answer made Princess Yuzhen very satisfied, she closed the folding fan in her hand, put it back in the box, and handed it to the Dao Gu beside her, which meant that she accepted the gift.
When everyone saw Ye Chang embarrassed, they all laughed, and the only one who didn't laugh was the insect girl.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Ye Chang angrily, she had just made this request to Yuzhen, but it was the first time in her life! But this little Langjun, who made her look pleasing to the eye, didn't understand her kindness, so she refused!
She understands "the sunset is infinitely better", but at such an age, she doesn't understand why a man is reluctant to enter the palace as an internal supervisor. And as a member of the Li Tang clan, although her experience has made her more introverted and shy, it does not mean that she does not have the brutal willfulness of the daughter of the Li family.
How deep her affection for Ye Chang is, then how much anger she has towards Ye Chang now.
"I'm tired of being poor, and I'm ready to go back...... Disperse yourselves. Princess Yuzhen felt that today's happiness was over, so she commanded.
Having said that, of course, everyone had to wait for her to go first. Qin Qinshou saw the princess and her party get up, turned her face sideways with a smile on her face, and was about to talk to Ye Chang, when she suddenly saw a small figure leaning over silently.
It turned out to be the little princess Twenty-Nine Niang, who quietly approached at some point. Without waiting for Qin Qinshou to look at Ye Chang, the little princess raised her legs, a standard kicking action.
It's just that instead of football, she plays small ball...... And it's Ye Chang's ball.
Ye Chang, who was not prepared at all, covered his crotch, his eyes protruded, and his waist was bent into a shrimp. The smile on Qin Qinshou's face turned into horror, and he also reached out to cover his vital point, while sizzling in the cold air.
The little insect girl's actions were completely unexpected by everyone, in the palace, she was a person who never dared to make any moves, and her sense of existence was extremely weak, and today it was Ye Chang's encouragement, so that she dared to talk to strangers, dare to play football, and ...... dared to kick Ye Chang's small ball.
"You...... You...... Do what? ”
Ye Chang finally finished speaking, looking at the angry insect girl, he asked in a hissed voice.
"Let you enter the palace." The insect lady said fiercely.
It's just that she is always honest, even if she squeezes her eyebrows and nose together to show a fierce appearance, she still looks like she is making a grimace. If Ye Chang hadn't been in pain, he would really not be angry, but now...... He had already realized that the little Dao Gu in front of him, who looked demure and pitiful, was not a good stubble!
"Worm Niang, come here!"
Yu Zhen over there didn't know if Lu Dao had seen this scene, but at this time, her voice was neither early nor late, and it happened to arrive.
Insect Niang looked at Ye Chang hatefully, turned around and walked back towards Yuzhen, but after taking a few steps, she turned back and glanced at Ye Chang. The gaze clearly said that this matter is not over yet, and she will find a way to get Ye Chang into the palace.
Ye Chang felt that he was flying in trouble again, and he didn't do anything, but he just smiled at the little girl twice, how could he cause such trouble? Bending over, he couldn't stop standing still, he could only watch Fangchen go away, and when he turned around, it was Qin Qinshou's sympathetic gaze.
"Ye Langjun...... This, this, I heard that there is a quick knife hand in the palace, who specializes in cutting that job, so that people will suffer less...... If Ye Langjun's job is broken, the servant will go and invite a quick knife hand for Ye Langjun......"
"Get out!"
