Chapter 705: Toothache
Wake up refreshed.
It's really refreshing.
Although last night's mood was like a roller coaster, there are always some happy things after the gloom, for example, she finally knows who her husband is.
Guan Shan clarified his identity, he is neither Kou Changqing, which means that Zheng Huarui has nothing to do with him, whether as a fiancΓ©e or a wife.
For a moment, Ji Yu also thought about who made Zheng Huarui's heart move.
What if she was interested in the prestigious General Kou, rather than the real Kou Changqing?
I'm sorry about that.
It's her man.
One didn't steal, two didn't rob, legal.
Lunch was served in Yuewei Courtyard again, and a little eunuch accompanied Dabao over, but Teng Xiu didn't come.
After eating, Ji Yu and Dabao stood under the porch and watched Xiaoding spread joy on the snow in the courtyard.
Dabao's eyes faintly showed envy, and he dragged Ji Yu's little finger and shook it.
Ji Yu glanced at him, didn't speak, and raised her hand to recall Xiao Ding.
Xiao Ding was already playing crazy, and he screamed several times before he rushed over, and when he braked suddenly, the snow foam that was raised pounced on Dabao and Ji Yu.
Ji Yu couldn't help but laugh when she saw Dabao's neck shrunk by ice.
Xiao Ding saw Ji Yu smile, and refused to stop, ran out and ran back, ran out and ran back, and so on, not to mention the excitement, and when he returned, he had to fight Ji Yu and Dabao in the snow.
Dabao was going to the group snowball, and the little eunuch did it for him before he bent over.
The round snowball was handed in front of him, and Dabao's face sank in an instant.
The little eunuch was a little at a loss, and looked at Ji Yu for help.
Ji Yu took the snowball, picked up her arm and threw it into the distance, and the snowball drew a graceful arc in the air and landed outside the moon cave door.
Xiao Ding chased out like a hungry wolf.
"It's a little cold." Ji Yu looked at Dabao, "Let's go into the house to warm up?" β
Dabao's mood improved, mumbled, and took her hand to the warm pavilion.
The two of them roasted their hands around the charcoal stove for a while, and Ji Yu saw that Dabao was sleepy, so he asked him to take off his shoes and go to the couch for a while.
After a stick of incense, Teng Xiu came and wanted to take Dabao to the study to listen to the lecture.
The little eunuch waited for Dabao to wash up, and Ji Yu asked the maid to serve Teng Xiu a cup of hot tea.
"Mr. Teng, this has just come back from the palace? Delayed for so long, but what's new? β
Teng Xiu thanked him before taking his seat.
"There's something new, but it's not a harem, it's a former dynasty."
He paused just in time, opened the teacup, and took a sip.
The two maidservants standing next to him, after the short body blessing, Yuguan withdrew from the warm pavilion.
Teng Xiu put down the teacup before continuing.
"Two days ago, the slave seems to have said that the old general Qiu Huanbin recommended a vanguard general in front of the emperor."
Ji Yu mentioned it in her heart and said calmly: "There is such a thing." What's wrong, isn't it...... Maybe the emperor? β
"It's just a vanguard general, where the emperor will take it to heart, the boss can decide for himself, just go through the process. But this vanguard general's identity is a bit special, after all, he is from the Kou family. β
Ji Yu pretended to be puzzled: "Since it is the Kou family, the emperor should rest assured, with a cousin like General Shenwu, this pioneer general must not be bad." β
Teng Xiu shook his head: "Miss Ji doesn't know, this tiger that just drove away the side of the couch, and now there is a similar one, our emperor will inevitably think more." General Qiu also said that the war in Liaodong was not trivial, and the vanguard general was shouldering heavy responsibilities, and it was indeed difficult to convince the public to promote a newcomer rashly, so it was best to invite the court and the emperor personally took the examination. β
"He's on court today?"
"Exactly."
Ji Yu originally wanted to ask Emperor Wande how he reacted when he saw him, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he hurriedly stopped and changed his words.
"What does the vanguard general look like?"
Teng Xiu smiled: "I'm afraid that the girl won't believe it, the two cousins look exactly the same." β
Ji Yu cooperated very well and made a surprised expression.
"Is it really the same?"
"As soon as he appeared, the courtiers were shocked and speechless, can there be a fake?"
Ji Yu didn't speak.
Appearing in the court and in front of Emperor Wande in such a grand manner, she still felt that it was too risky.
Bisheng forgot to ask about this yesterday.
"Isn't it incredible? The minion glanced at it from a distance, as if it were a brother.
Ji Yu nodded first, then shook her head.
"It's not necessarily only brothers who look like each other, we have a pair of cousins in the former village, and at first glance they look like twins, so you have to distinguish them carefully."
"That's right, strangers are similar. What's more, this vanguard general is as you said, but at first glance he looks like General Shenwu, but if you look closely, he is darker than General Shenwu, and his eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose are tougher. β
Ji Yu seemed to smile: "General Shenwu hasn't seen the wind and sand for two years, he is used to being pampered in Beijing, and the water and soil in Beijing are the most nourishing, so it is inevitable that he will be whiter." β
Teng Xiu agrees.
"Not to mention, General Shenwu has even improved his temper a lot in the past two years, where have I seen him smile before, I went to Liaodong with Gonggong Feng to pass the decree once, and the more timid eunuchs didn't dare to come to him."
Ji Yu hooked her lips meaningfully: "Then he probably put down the 'butcher's knife' and became a Buddha on the spot." β
Teng Xiuwei sighed with emotion: "Now he can't let go of this knife." β
Ji Yu snorted coldly in his heart, he had never mentioned this knife.
No, I mentioned it once, but it wasn't the enemy's chest that was stabbed into it, it was his brother.
"Manager Teng, you haven't said yet, how the emperor reacted when he saw him."
"His face is not very good, and he was specially summoned after retreating."
Hearing that her face was not very good, Ji Yu couldn't help but think about it - could it be that she was exposed? Did Emperor Wande recognize him?
Teng Xiu suddenly turned a corner: "After that person left, the emperor's dragon heart was happy." β
Ji Yu was really puzzled this time.
And about this, Teng Xiu couldn't answer her questions.
"In short, this vanguard general is decided."
There is no danger, I should be happy, but thinking that the military position has been decided, the next step should be to start the army, and I can't laugh too much.
"Then when will they leave for Liaodong? It's almost the New Year, will you ...... after the New Year?"
"I can't say for sure. The emperor wants to choose a good day and an auspicious day, and Fu Wangge is picking a day. β
The four words of good day and auspicious day made Ji Yu's eyelids twitch, and the three words of Fu Wangge made Ji Yu's eyelids twitch again.
"Manager Teng, I heard that the emperor has recruited many Taoist priests into the palace, all of whom are masters, have you seen them?"
"I have seen it, but not all of them are masters, and there are also people who sell their reputations."
"How?"
"There is an old Taoist who chatters, neither can preach the scriptures, nor can he refine medicine, and he can't go with the emperor, and he will either catch the palace maids and eunuchs all day long, or squat in the dining room to bake and eat secretly, and ......compare with other immortal wind and Taoist heavenly masters."
Teng Xiu shook his head.
Ji Yu hissed and covered half of her face.
"What's wrong, Miss Ji?"
Ji Yu smiled dryly: "Toothache." β
