Chapter 42: May You Like Me
"It's funny for General Xiao to stand up for a lowly servant, how do you like this type, there are many in Baihualou. "To be able to say such a thing is either really stupid or drunk.
"Lord Qian is really drunk, all the women in the harem are the emperor's women regardless of their status, aren't they?" The voice was very small, except for the two parties, only Zhou Jinhuan could hear it, the words were right, otherwise that person's face would not have changed drastically, and he would no longer be presumptuous, but why did he hear the strange thing in her ears?
"Do you think that with that little white face to help you speak, the official won't be able to move you?" This person really didn't die in the heart of the Yellow River, his lips full of wine came over, Zhou Jinhuan suddenly retreated, and almost fell to the ground, but his voice followed him: "You said that if the official asks the emperor for you after the banquet, will the emperor not give it?"
Speaking of which, Zhou Jinhuan doesn't know how things came to this point, and she didn't mess with him, he hates Zhang Zilang and Xiao Jingzhi, why do you have to be angry with herself?
"Lord Qian, do you know Princess Gaoping?"
"Okay, what are you doing mentioning that unlucky princess?"
"The slave maid used to serve Princess Gaoping, and the moon did seven kills in the eight characters, and the moon branch injured the officer, which is a typical appearance of the Keren, and many times the slave and maid suspect that the death of Princess Gaoping was related to the slave and maid......"
In ancient times, Zhou Jinhuan didn't know much about special superstitions such as fate, but he could bluff the person in front of him casually.
Sure enough, he looked disgusted: "Broom star, put it in the wine glass, stay away from the official." ”
If he knew that the previous identity of the princess of the previous dynasty was so useful, it would not have been so embarrassing just now.
She still kept her head down, and his gaze hadn't left her since the two of them had just met, glued to her.
It's really uncomfortable, I don't think it's sitting or standing, and I don't know where to put my hands.
"General Xiao won a big victory this time, I will reward you for anything, what do you want to ask me for?" Zhao Yu's words focused everyone's attention on Xiao Jingzhi, this was too ordinary a sentence, for generals with military merits, it was too common for the emperor to give a reward, but this was particularly harsh to Zhou Jinhuan's ears.
He called her here this time, let others humiliate her, and then let Xiao Jingzhi take the reward, implying that she was just an object, whether it was for him or Xiao Jingzhi.
"Fighting a war is within the scope of Wechen's business, and Wechen has nothing to ask for. Xiao Jingzhi replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, as if he knew her thoughts.
"Eh, Aiqing don't have to be embarrassed, I have already promised you, naturally I will not break my word, whether it is the ginseng of Goryeo, the fine spices of Annam or the beauty of Persia, as long as you open your mouth, I will definitely give it to you. ”
When Zhao Yu said this, the other courtiers also began to coax, and Zhou Jinhuan's face became even more ugly.
"Since the emperor said so, the minister wants to ask the emperor for a favor, I don't know if the emperor can allow Weichen. ”
"Tell me about it. ”
"Wechen wants to ask the emperor to allow the freedom of someone present. ”
"Tell me about it. ”
The people on the spot were a little confused, Zhou Jinhuan just frowned deeper, she felt that this was a farce, and she couldn't wait to leave now.
"Weichen is a duckweed person, thanks to the emperor's trust in the minister, promotion will have today, and it is today that the minister fell in love with the fair lady sitting opposite, she has beautiful eyebrows curved like a crescent moon, eyes as quiet as water, and a very sweet little pear vortex with a smile......" He said as he slowly walked towards Zhou Jinhuan, his voice was unusually soft, with piety and caution:" She just sat like that, doing nothing, hanging her head, her black head was softly scattered on the white palace clothes, the minister knew that she was from the palace, and kept trying not to look at her, but the minister couldn't help but want to see her, look at her, look at her......"
When she said this, Xiao Jingzhi had already walked up to her, and her voice seemed to be a kraken, with a bewitching charm: "This girl, can I like you?"
His words blinded everyone, and there was a bold and direct statement of everyone's doubts: "Since you like this servant girl, just ask the emperor for her directly, where is there so much trouble?"
This was Hongguoguo's confession, or was it the presence of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, and she thought she understood the meaning of what he started to say now.
He begged Zhao Yu to give her freedom because he wanted to explain to everyone present that he liked her and liked her as an equal to himself, not a victorious product plundered by virtue of military merits, and not anyone's grace.
Thinking of this, the face that had been gloomy finally had a smile, and a pair of small pear vortices were sweet, and they raised their faces and asked, "Then this general, how long can you like me?"
"I love you, respect you like a treasure, and I will not change or regret it in my life. Resisting the urge to stroke her little pear vortex, he reached over, she handed her hand, and with a slight effort, a kiss fell on his forehead, smiling like a flower: "Then, General Xiao, I promise you to like me and promise you a lifetime." ”
