Chapter 192: The Official's Lady
Duan Meimei stayed in the palace today to accompany Empress Dowager Du.
When the elderly are not in good health, they especially need companionship, so they don't care about whether Xu Jin and his wife want to reunite.
So Xiaogui can come, so that Xu Yongzhi has a person who can talk.
But Xu Yongzhi just wanted to sleep now, and Xiaogui knew that he had something in his heart, so he accompanied him to sleep early.
Xiao Gui looked affectionately at the man's appearance after falling asleep.
In his young life in his early twenties, he experienced too much suffering, he was forced to cry and choose some things, and he gave up many people in embarrassment, and a moment of tranquility was also a luxury for him.
Most of the time, Xu Yongzhi's sleep is very good, and the luck method of Longhu Mountain will make him sleep peacefully.
But today was an exception, he would frown, gnash his teeth, let out a low growl in his throat in his dreams, and finally he would wake up with a sharp kick in his shin and a confused look in his eyes.
"You shouted." Xiao Gui looked at him and said.
"I didn't." Xu Yongzhi said.
"Huh?" Xiaogui said.
"Okay, I have." Xu Yongzhi said.
"What's wrong?" Xiaogui asked.
"Zhao Pu asked me to kill the King of Jin." Xu Yongzhi said.
"Ah......h
"Why, you ...... too"
"I said I wouldn't do it." Xu Yongzhi said.
"Xianggong has his own principles, which is good." Xiaogui said.
"I can't be an assassin." Xu Yongzhi said.
"That's right, there are too many people who know you, it's too conspicuous." Xiaogui said.
"I can't do this either, Zhao Er just hates it, except for killing Emperor Sejong, he doesn't have much guilt, and Sejong is a sin that all of us have to bear." Xu Yongzhi said.
"I don't know about others, but you don't, you only learned everything later, and people should not bear the responsibility for other people's choices." Xiaogui said.
"Hmm...... Or ......," Xu Yongzhi said.
Thoughts in the middle of the night are sometimes more real than in the daytime.
"If you decide, I can do it." Xiao Gui suddenly said quietly.
"You think he deserves to die, too?" Xu Yongzhi asked.
"I don't care about this, but Zhao Pu's proposal is not bad, King Jin is dead, it is good for you and the official family, and King Jin will attack you sooner or later." Xiaogui said.
"But if I strike first, it won't be the way to be a minister." Xu Yongzhi said.
"King Jin is here, Li Lianqiao's power is in Tokyo City, if King Jin dies, her hand will not be able to reach in. You understand this, Xianggong. Xiaogui said.
"I can't do this, I can't get over it." Xu Yongzhi said.
"Xianggong, you are a good person, a very good person, I know how embarrassed you are at the moment, if you want to nod, you will definitely not order, Xia Xiaogui is your wife, and you are also your most loyal little follower, even if you want to kill Zhao Er, I will never look down on you at all, I won't feel that you have changed, your heart is ruthless, your face is shrouded in murder, and you have lost your way, those are all stupid things that literary women say."
"If someone gets in your way and threatens your safety, I'll kill him, you don't need to nod, as long as you don't shake your head, I'll go and do it." Xiaogui said.
Xu Yongzhi looked at her and shook his head firmly.
"This decision cannot be changed, you are my wife, the person I love, I will not let the person I love become an assassin and behead alone."
"I'm sorry I said the wrong thing. I don't know what else I can do for you. Xiaogui said.
"Kiss me." Xu Yongzhi said.
They kissed each other passionately.
"I told Li Yu."
When the mouths of the two people parted, Xiaogui said to Xu Yongzhi.
"What did you say?"
"The matter of me and you being married."
"What did he say?"
"He was not happy and said let me be. But also said don't expect him to take back his fate, Zhaoyi's identity is still there, and I want to let me pope the prince's martial arts. ”
"Coincidentally, I also became the master of His Royal Highness Dezhao." Xu Yongzhi said with a smile.
"The princes of the Great Song Dynasty and the Southern Tang Dynasty will be brothers in the future." Xiaogui said.
"When they all grow up, maybe they won't need to fight, try and try to see if you are the master or my master!" Xu Yongzhi said.
Xiao Gui saw him imitating the appearance of the two children gambling on the game, and couldn't help but snort and laugh.
"What you master! It's obviously my teacher! Xu Yongzhi continued to learn.
Xiao Gui lightly slapped Xu Yongzhi's body with his fist.
"Xiaogui, I've decided." Xu Yongzhi said.
"Huh?"
"I will try my best to protect Li Yu's family, and I will not seek revenge against him again." Xu Yongzhi said.
A gentleman's words carry weight.
Xiaogui felt a deep sense of gratitude in her heart, she knew who Xu Yongzhi was for.
"I understand more and more what is the most important thing in the world, he saved you, otherwise I would not have seen you. I will help him, and I will not let him die in the royal law of the official family. Xu Yongzhi said.
"Xianggong, thank you for treating me like this."
"Silly words, thank you."
"The first time I saw you, I felt that heaven and earth, fire and water, should follow you and follow you. But how many things have you given me, a family, a body of kung fu, and a self, I have not become your appendage, and I still train you and criticize you from time to time...... I sometimes feel regretful, I was born in the wrong child in this life, I can't give you a son and a half daughter, but you still treat each other sincerely, what a blessing this is, in this world, in this era, who has such good luck? Xiaogui said.
"I also hope that there will be such an era, that there will be such a world, men and women, no longer I control you, you control me; I bully you, you bully me; I framed you, you framed me; I want your body, and you want my money. Everyone can treat each other gently and spend this short life together. Xu Yongzhi said.
"It's so difficult, let's talk about the subjugation of the sixteen states of Yanyun, this is easier to achieve." Xiaogui said.
Xu Yongzhi smiled, hugged Xiaogui, and the two of them fell asleep.
This time, no one had nightmares.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn.
Xiaogui had already dressed and gotten up, and was feeding the melon seeds to the parrot to eat.
Someone gently knocked on the door outside.
"Who?" Xu Yongzhi asked.
"Uncle, it's me, pity."
The identity of mercy is Duan Meimei's dowry girl, so she has always called Xu Yongzhi her uncle, not "Xianggong".
Xu Yongzhi got dressed and opened the door.
Mercy brought in double portions of face wash, hand towels, and a portion of fat powder.
"Uncle, Miss Xia, I'll retire first." Mercy took the door and exited.
"This maid next to you is not simple." Xiaogui said.
Xu Yongzhi was afraid that Xiaogui would be jealous, so he hurriedly explained: "It's not from my side, this is Meimei's maid who brought it back from Yuzhou." ”
"Xianggong, don't worry so much, I'm not jealous. I know where she came from, but this person is too smart, and I'm afraid that Sister Meimei will suffer. ”
"Oh? How so? Xu Yongzhi asked.
"Whose house is this?" Xiaogui asked.
Xu Yongzhi was stunned for a moment.
This is a small expensive house.
In this house, Xiaogui has a room, and Xu Yongzhi usually sleeps in Duan Meimei's room. Xu Yongzhishan has a room, which is his study, and there is a small bed to rest in.
"When she saw that there was no one in Meimei's room, she immediately sent double toiletries, and she knew that you would be in this room, isn't it smart?" Xiaogui said.
"It's just a subordinate with more eyesight, don't worry too much." Xu Yongzhi comforted Xiaogui.
"If you want to accept it, just sum it up with Sister Meimei, if you don't accept it, quickly find a good master to marry her, this is not a simple character." Xiaogui said.
Tian Kokou also said something similar.
A woman's thoughts and tricks can be hidden from a man, but she can't hide it from a woman.
A woman can also see what routine another woman uses.
In fact, men are similar, you see that when a woman who is intoxicated in love talks about how good her lover is with a male friend, she almost always says stupid things, and takes that kind of boring joke as a talent, and that kind of skillful routine as a flattery.
"Think about it." Xu Yongzhi said, go wash your face, she has been worried for the past two days, and she finally slept well last night.
"Don't believe me? In a moment she will bring the meal. Xiaogui said.
Xu Yongzhi immediately remembered the set of dim sum made by mercy after the candle night in the cave room.
He went out into the hallway and shouted to the people below, "Pity, what are you doing?" ”
"Uncle, I'll give it to Miss Hegui early." Mercy answered below.
"Put it down there, and we'll go down and eat." Xu Yongzhi said.
"Yes."
Xu Yongzhi came in the door: "As you expected." ”
"Find a forbidden army officer to marry her, if it is an ordinary subordinate, she will resent you, and she can be satisfied with the wife of an officer with enough status." Xiaogui said.
Xu Yongzhi was a little hesitant.
"Or do you want to take her? It's okay, this kind of powerful character will definitely plan for his man. Xiaogui said. Absolutely not, what will Meimei think? Xu Yongzhi said.
"Li Shoujie or Fei Datou?" Xiaogui said.
Xu Yongzhi suddenly felt Xiaogui's sense of oppression, she wanted to make a quick decision by herself, she was not allowed to use expressions such as "in the future" and "turn back", but directly turned a fill-in-the-blank question into a multiple-choice question.
"Although Li Shoujie's status is high, he likes men, and he pities the past, that is, he is a widow, and he is probably unwilling."
"Not necessarily, isn't Zhenzhen also married to Father-in-law Zhang?" Xiaogui said.
"Although Fei Datou has a low military position, he is down-to-earth and diligent, he is a good candidate, wait for me to talk to Meimei about this, it depends on whether he is willing to be merciful, right. She is not a slave to our family. Xu Yongzhi said.
After the two of them finished grooming, they went downstairs to sit down, and were eating, when they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and someone came in from the door to report that someone had come from the palace.
Xu Yongzhi was about to wear an official uniform to receive the order, and the officials in the palace had already arrived.
"Your Excellency, you don't have to accept the order, it's not the official family who summons you, it's the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother's message is transmitted."
Xu Yongzhi hurriedly knelt down, "The child listens to the teachings of the old mengniang." ”
"Xu Jin, this child, hurry up into the palace to see the old lady, and also, bring your Xia girl."
The tone of the old queen mother of this public school is still a little similar.
"My lord, I'm done passing it, hurry back and resume your life, you hurry up and go to the palace, oh, by the way, remember to take Miss Xia."
Xu Yongzhi hurriedly asked the stable to prepare the horses.
"Why is it my business? Sister Meimei told the old lady that I was coming? Xiaogui was also confused.
"No," Xu Yongzhi said, "if she is for this purpose, she will definitely say: Jin'er, I want to see your other daughter-in-law, bring it to the old lady!" ”
"What's going on?"
"Do you still need to ask? This must be King Jin's troublemaker again! ”
