212 missed
"Girl," the maid smiled, cleared her throat, and said euphemistically, "It has been a year and a half since Mrs. Shizi passed away, and finally Mrs. Tai's filial piety has passed, and the prince should also look at each other......"
The prince Geng Anhui is the eldest brother of the five girls, and the five girls can complain and dislike them, but they are all not good.
There was silence in the carriage for a moment, and Geng Tinglian said slowly: "The matter of marriage, the order of the parents, and the words of the matchmaker." As she spoke, her eyes darkened, "...... That Duanmujun is a girl from the Shoufu family, but she is not from one of those small families in her hometown, can she provoke casually?! ”
The maid didn't know what to say, so she had to make tea for the girl silently.
"Hey-" Geng Tinglian sighed faintly, her expression complicated, "As the saying goes, a slap doesn't make a sound." If that Duanmu girl was self-respecting, the eldest brother should not be able to do it; But if she's ...... That's all she can blame. ”
Geng Tinglian glanced out of the carriage again, and Geng Anhao, who was a hundred feet away, was riding his horse and turning towards the right-hand side, and soon his figure disappeared......
Geng Anhao, who turned out of Changxing Street, saw the familiar green canopy carriage in front of him at a glance, which was the carriage of the Duanmu family.
He began to slow down his horse, keeping a short distance from the carriage, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, and a pair of dark eyes shining like ink.
The eldest girl of the Duanmu family is really a rare peerless beauty, the degree of slenderness, one point is too charming, and one point is too plain, so just right, the beautiful and charming girl is really the only one he has seen in his life!
He had never seen a girl so captivating him!
Thinking about it, Geng Anhui felt that his heart was hot, and he pressed the urge to get closer, and said to himself that he had to seize this opportunity.
Once you miss this opportunity, who knows when you will see you again.
This kind of young girl's family in the boudoir, he knows best, the girl is pregnant with spring, and he admires Shaoai...... It's not difficult to attract her attention, as long as you sow a seed in her heart "properly", that seed will grow in her heart!
Geng Anhao's eyes flashed with a hint of imperativeness, and he casually raised his hand and made a gesture to the guard behind him, and the guard understood it, and after answering, he rode his horse and turned around.
Geng Anhao's thin lips curled higher, and he continued to chase the carriage in front of him, wearing a blue brocade robe that was blown by the wind when he was galloping on his horse, looking indescribably handsome and chic, attracting the attention of many people on the side of the road.
Geng Anhao patiently followed Duanmujun and Duanmufei's carriage for several streets, always maintaining a distance of dozens of zhang between each other, as if he was just wandering the streets at random.
The street was bustling and noisy, but it could not be reflected in his eyes, and his eyes seemed to only have the carriage in front of him, without blinking......
Suddenly, a brown horse jumped out of an alley in front of him without warning, its hooves fluttering, the horses snorted, and galloped towards Duanmu's carriage, and the red horse pulling the cart neighed in fright......
Many people on the street also noticed this scene, and they couldn't help but stop, or gasp, or let out a cry of exclamation, and looked at the green wagon and the brown horse with their eyes brushed.
It was a mess all around.
Here's your chance! Geng Anhao's eyes lit up in an instant, as bright as a meteor in the night sky.
He immediately grabbed the horse's belly and galloped towards Duanmu's carriage, unstoppable like thunder.
"Stepping on ......"
Seeing that the carriage in front of him was getting closer and closer to him, Geng Anhao was about to show off his skills, but he saw a young man in a long and jade body who appeared like a divine soldier descending from the sky and landed lightly on the side of the carriage. The boy pulled the reins of the carriage with his hand, and with a gentle and dexterous tug, the red horse pulling the cart obediently stopped, and then drove to the side of the road.
Where did this come from?! Geng Anhao frowned slightly, subconsciously pulled the horse rope, and slowed down the horse's speed.
Ahead, a sturdy black horse appeared out of nowhere, and its tall body was horizontal, just blocking the path of the brown horse.
The brown horse was startled, and his mouth neighed excitedly, and his two front legs were raised high, so startled that the gray-clothed man on the horse hurriedly pulled the horse rope.
He opened his mouth and was about to curse, but the young man in black clothes had already appeared on his side like a ghost, and the young man easily supported himself on the black horse, and then flew up and kicked the gray-clothed man on the brown horse directly with one kick.
This kick is as fast as lightning.
This kick is as heavy as a thousand pounds.
The man in gray didn't react at all, he screamed and fell off the horse, and the whole person fell heavily on the stone floor, let out a muffled snort, and rolled out several laps in embarrassment before he could stabilize himself.
The series of actions of the Xuanyi boy were like flowing water, everything happened so fast, like lightning and thunder, so fast that Geng Anhao couldn't react at all, and could only watch the Xuanyi young man casually dust off the non-existent dust on his robe after kicking someone, as if he had just touched something dirty.
The corners of Geng Anhao's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly cursed in his heart who ruined his good deeds......
The young man in Xuanyi who was more than ten feet away in front of him slowly turned around, and the other party's handsome and picturesque face also came into Geng Anhao's field of vision.
This face was familiar and a little unfamiliar, Geng Anhao subconsciously squinted his eyes and recognized the other party-
The seal of the Eldest Princess of Anping's mansion.
Speaking of which, they haven't seen each other for more than three years, Feng Yan seems to be much taller than before, his body is as slender as a pine, just standing with his hands in his hands so casually and leisurely, a unique brilliance is released around his body, as if he contains a powerful force in his body, making it impossible to ignore his existence.
More than three years ago, Feng Yan, who had not yet gone to the north to practice, was still a young child, but now after the tempering of the battlefield, he is already a soldier and a man!
Of course, Feng Yan, who was not far away, also saw Geng Anhao, glanced at him casually, and ignored him.
He took two steps forward, came to the carriage, and said to the person on the other side of the window, "Fourth girl Duanmu, are you okay?" ”
Feng Yan jumped directly from the second floor of the Fengfeng Restaurant on the side of the street, just now he saw Zhen Zhen's carriage in the private seat of the restaurant, and was about to catch up and say hello, when he saw the dangerous scene of Fang Cai, he went downstairs from the window of the elegant seat "nearby" without thinking about it.
Thankfully, she wasn't scared. Feng Yan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Feng Gongzi, my sister and I are fine."
Duanmu Fei in the carriage had already opened the curtains, and also saw the thrilling scene just now, looking at Ben Xiao behind Feng Yan with reverence, and said in his heart: Ben Xiao is really too godly!
I don't know if Feng Yan will let her ride into the sky again...... No, with her three-legged cat riding skills, it's too blasphemous, she has to work hard to practice her riding skills!
Duanmu squeezed his small fists and swore secretly in his heart.
Seeing Duanmu looking at him with scarlet eyes, Feng Yan's waist straightened up, smiled at Duanmu Jun in the carriage, and said decently: "Fourth girl Duanmu, it's good that you and Sister Ling are not frightened." "The expression and posture are polite.
Duanmujun also smiled back, sincerely thanked Feng Yan, and praised the eldest princess of Anping in her heart not only for her own glory, but also for teaching her son well, it can be said that there is a mother and a son, and Feng Gongzi is chivalrous, which is really good.
Duanmu Fei's gaze lingered on the face of the mighty horse, and he noticed that the horse chew it was wearing was a little familiar, his eyes lit up, his eyes moved up, he looked up at Feng Yan, and said expectantly: "Feng Gongzi, those caramel and saddle ...... sent last time" Ben Xiao still likes it?"
In order to Feng Yan's rescue on the shore of Cuiwei Lake last time, Duanmufei specially instructed Mama Zhang to send the caramel she made by herself and the saddle, horse chews, horse brushes, etc. she personally picked to the princess's mansion.
"I love it." Feng Yan replied decisively, looking at Duanmu Fei eagerly.
Ben Xiao also seemed to understand, and let out a joyful "bang" sound.
Just like it! Duanmu smiled at the corner of his lips, and the more he looked at Benxiao, the more he liked it.
Feng Yan looked at her and smiled, and couldn't help but smirk. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a blue figure riding a horse towards him, getting closer and closer......
"Ben ......"
Duanmu Fei only said a word, and saw Feng Yan make a move without warning, and ripped off the curtain that was originally picked up by Duanmu Fei.
"......" Duanmu stared at the cyan curtain, dumbfounded, and didn't know what was wrong with Feng Yan, who was like a needle under the sea.
On the other side of the curtain, Feng Yan raised his eyes to Geng Anhao, who was a few feet away, and their eyes intersected in mid-air for a moment, sparks were everywhere, and the hustle and bustle around seemed to be far away at this moment.
Feng Yan naturally also knew Geng Anhao.
Not only Geng Anhao, but Feng Yan also recognized the other person present.
Feng Yan's gaze faintly glanced at the gray-clothed man who was kicked off the horse by him, and the corners of his mouth hooked an arc that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
Although the gray-clothed man was dressed in an ordinary stone-gray cotton robe, the ox horn belt on his body had the mark of the Patriotic Mansion.
How blind everyone else is!
Thinking about Geng Anhao's actions just now, Feng Yan naturally understood what was going on.
Feng Yan's gaze moved from the gray-clothed man to Geng Anhao again, his gaze was sharp, like a sword out of the sheath, and the cold air overflowed.
Geng Anhao smiled, turned over and dismounted, and walked towards Feng Yan, smiling amiably and freely, as if he had seen an old friend.
"Feng Yan, I haven't seen you for a few years, how is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Anping?" He smiled politely, raised his eyebrows, and his tone was meaningful, "My father often said that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess does not let her eyebrows be shaved, but she has lived in a simple place all these years, and it is quite a pity to take care of her life!" ”
What he meant in his words was that the Anping Eldest Princess Mansion was now difficult to protect itself, and he advised Feng Yan not to meddle in his affairs.
"Isn't this Geng Shizi? I haven't seen him for a few years, but Geng Shizi still hasn't changed'! Feng Yan smiled and said, "It's really annoying that Grandpa Guo is worried about his mother." ”
Feng Yan was not angered by these salty and indifferent words, and only pretended not to understand.
At this time, Ben Xiao snorted, as if to remind him of something.
Feng Yan kicked out his foot suddenly, raised his foot and kicked the gray-clothed man who was about to get up to the ground directly, and the right foot in the deerskin boots stepped directly on the opponent's chest, and the gray-faced man let out a painful muffled snort again.
Feng Yan didn't seem to hear it, but he still didn't look at the man in gray.
He looked lazy, with a bright smile on the corner of his mouth, as bright as the rising sun, and said to Geng Anhui meaningfully: "Geng Shizi...... wantonly rode horses on the streets of the capital, and almost injured people, this is the jurisdiction of our Five Cities Soldiers and Horses. ”
The implication is that he wants to take people away.
Geng Anhao's eyes widened slightly, staring at Feng Yan deadly, obviously, Feng Yan saw that this was someone from their Patriotic Mansion, and he deliberately wanted to go against himself!
"Feng Gongzi, you have to be forgiving and forgiving......" Geng Anhao's voice grew colder, revealing a warning.
Feng Yan looked at Geng Anhui with a relaxed expression, his slightly raised chin revealed a bit of unruliness in the world, but because of his handsome face, it was not disgusting, but rather a little bit of young man's fresh clothes and angry horses, and high-spirited chic.
Feng Yan's right foot moved, stepped on the mark of the Weiguo Mansion on the belt of the gray-clothed man, unceremoniously exerted a slight force, the smile on his face was even brighter, and said disapprehantly: "Geng Shizi, if you have anything to say, go to the Five Cities Terracotta Division and say it!" ”
Geng Anhao first burned a cluster of anger in his heart, glared angrily, and then relaxed again, hooked his lips and smiled, and his eyes became gloomy and dangerous.
He took another step forward and approached Feng Yan, the faces of the two were only a foot apart, so close that they seemed to be able to see every fanning of the eyelashes.
"Feng Yan, believe it or not...... Geng Anhao lowered his voice and said slowly in a voice that only Feng Yan could hear, "As long as my father says a word, you, the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, are nothing!" ”
The corners of Feng Yan's mouth curled higher, as if he had heard some funny joke, and casually gave four words with his mouth: "Just give it a try." ”
When Duanmufei in the carriage opened the curtains again, he saw two handsome faces looking at each other, and the air seemed to be surging with the dark tide of the two colliding eyes.
Even if Duanmu Fei didn't hear the last two conversations between the two, he could sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
Thinking of Geng Anhao's greetings to Anping for Wei Guogong just now, Duanmu was stunned.
Wei Guogong and An Ping have always been at odds, and it has never been a secret in Beijing, and its source is naturally the puppet emperor, which was the "rectification of chaos" that year......
Duanmu's eyes flashed slightly, and he glanced at the gray-clothed man at Feng Yan's feet silently, and saw that the other party was glancing at Geng Anhui with embarrassed and uneasy eyes, with a look of pleading, Duanmu Fei contacted Feng Yanshi to say meaningfully to Geng Anhao, a seemingly unrelated person, "Riding horses hurt people" and "The jurisdiction of the Five Cities Terraching Division" Yunyun, he knew it in his heart.
This man in gray is afraid that he is from the Patriotic Mansion.
Listening to the meaning of this Geng Shizi's words, it is clear that he wants to protect this subordinate who is riding in the downtown area and use his power for personal gain...... The Patriotic Mansion is really as domineering as the rumors!
The corner of Feng Yan's eyes immediately caught a glimpse of Duanmu Fei opening the curtain, and he couldn't take care of Geng Anhui in an instant, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Duanmu Fei, and smiled slightly, which means that he has nothing to do with Geng Anhao, an indiscriminate lover who loves flowers and twisted grass.
Geng Anhui also couldn't wait to look inside the carriage, wanting to search for Duanmujun's traces, but Duanmujun's shadow happened to be blocked by the curtains.
"Thank you Feng Gongzi for coming to the rescue today," Duanmu smiled, arched his hand at Feng Yan, and said seriously, "Feng Gongzi, this downtown can not be tolerated." Two days ago, when my grandfather told me about the "Great Sheng Law", he mentioned that Emperor Taizu's parents died when he was a child, and his deceased father was killed by the person who rode the horse in the market, so Emperor Taizu hated people to ride horses in the downtown area, and specially added a clause in the "Dasheng Law": In the streets and alleys of the city and among the people, those who gallop the carriage and horses for no reason will be flogged fifty; Those who kill and injure people for any reason will be reduced by fighting and killing first-class ......"
According to this law, no one is allowed to ride a horse or drive a car in a busy city, otherwise, regardless of whether or not he injures anyone, it will be regarded as the crime of "killing people with injuries to a car or horse" and will be punished with a penalty of "50 lashes".
The corners of Geng Anhao's mouth were still slightly upturned, looking at him smiling, with a graceful demeanor, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.
The four Duanmu girls have all moved Emperor Taizu out, and what he says is disrespectful to Emperor Taizu. However, the girl in this Duanmu Mansion actually understands even "Dasheng Law......
Geng Anhui couldn't help but squint and glanced at Duanmu Fei again, but saw her smiling sweetly, innocent, it shouldn't be deliberate.
"Feng Yan, anyway, we will all be in the capital in the future, and we will talk about it next time." Geng Anhao sneered and brushed his sleeves away, throwing Feng Yan a cold look, as if to say, the coming day is long.
Feng Yan didn't bother to look at Geng Anhao at all, Duanmu Feicai's words echoed repeatedly in his mind, his heart was full of joy, if he had wings, he would have flown to the branch and roared three times in the sky.
His Vera just defended him!
He knew that Vera knew that she knew how good he was for her!
Duanmu Fei was a little uncomfortable with Feng Yan's burning gaze, feeling as if he was being targeted by a big wolf dog with green eyes.
She cleared her throat and said, "Feng Gongzi, my sister and I have to go back to the house, so I will leave first." ”
Feng Yan was reluctant, but he could only respond wiltingly, and the tail behind him hung down in frustration.
Duanmu Fei lowered the curtain almost urgently, and the carriage of Duanmu's family also drove forward again amid the shouts of the coachman, leaving only Feng Yan looking at the direction of the carriage leaving, and the gray-clothed man under his feet collapsed on the ground.
Feng Yan raised his hand and made a gesture casually, and there was a commotion on a leafy plane tree not far away, as if a bird was flying by the branches......
It wasn't until the carriage disappeared in front that Feng Yanfang looked down at the gray-clothed man on the ground, yawning lazily, his phoenix eyes were gloomy and cold.
On the same day, everyone in the capital knew that the Mansion of the Eldest Princess of Anping and the Mansion of the Duke of Weiguo, who had just returned to Beijing, were carried.
The guards of the Patriotic Mansion rode their horses on the street, and were taken to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, and were given fifty sticks, and then they were directly thrown back to the main gate of the Patriotic Mansion by the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses.
Feng Yan was also afraid that the world would not know, so he made people bang gongs and drums at the gate of the Weiguo Mansion to explain the crimes of the guards, attracting many good people to gather there in three layers and three layers outside to watch the excitement, and blocked the Wei Guogong Geng Hai, who was returning to the mansion at that time, at the mouth of the alley.
Wei Guogong had just returned to the capital, and he was so disgraced, he was furious, and the next morning, he impeached Feng Yan with righteous words.
The Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar, but Feng Yan calmly refuted them one by one with the law, and accused the public of defending the country without a king, arsoning with servants and committing murder, etc., which was orderly and reasonable, and his words were substantial, obviously confident.
After a quarrel of insisting on their own words, chickens and dogs jumping, it ended hastily in the end.
The emperor did not express his position in the early dynasty, however, the civil and military officials present were all close ministers of the Son of Heaven, who participated in the early dynasty for several years, and their understanding of the emperor was not eight or nine points, but there were also five or six points, how could they not see that the Son of Heaven was actually thunderous and angry, and others did not dare to talk about other topics, so as not to be unlucky and suffer from the pond fish and be angered by the emperor.
After returning to the imperial study, he sent Geng Hai away, and the emperor could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and slapped his palm heavily on the imperial case.
"Smack!"
The inkstone, pen holder, and pen rest on the imperial case trembled slightly, making a "click" sound, and the little chamberlain on the side was so frightened that his face was like earth, trembling, and he almost knelt down softly.
The emperor was so angry that the corners of his forehead flared up, and he said angrily: "It's obviously just a trivial matter, what if Feng Yan takes a step back?!" ”
"This kid is just as reckless as his mother, a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised!"
"He still thinks I will always indulge him, and I don't want to think about his own identity, I don't know what ...... is important."
The more the emperor spoke, the more angry he became, his heart was burning with anger, and he said coldly: "Since this is the case, I will dismiss him, the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, so that he will not be fluttering, and he will not know the height of the sky!" ”
Cen Yin's narrow and charming eyes on the side were like a cold pool, quiet, deep, cold and indifferent, as if all the disturbances in the world could not be reflected in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, this is meditation tea." Cen Yin personally served the teacup to the emperor, and his white and slender fingers lined the elegant blue and white porcelain teacup, as if the delicate white porcelain exuded a lustrous luster.
With a faint medicinal fragrance of tea, rising with the heat, entering the emperor's nasal cavity, the emperor suddenly felt a little more comfortable, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of medicinal tea.
Cen Yin opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, the eldest princess of Anping and the Duke of Weiguo have always been at odds, but this 'dismount' is neither light nor heavy, it is not painful or itchy, except for making people criticize the Duke of Weiguo in Beijing, the minister really can't see any benefit to the eldest princess of Anping and the commander of the envoy. ”
The emperor was stunned, and thoughtfully raised his head from the fragrance of tea and looked at Cen Yin on the side.
Now it's just the end of the day, the bright sunlight shines in through the transparent glass window, a piece of translucent, Cen Yin's beautiful face is like a jade shell in the bright sunshine, and the temperament is calm.
The sound of the Western clock suddenly sounded in the imperial study, and the regular sound made the emperor's heartbeat beat beat with its rhythm and calm down.
Cen Yin is right, Feng Yan may be a young man, but this matter has been known to the entire capital, and he will definitely not be able to hide it from Anping's ears and eyes, Anping has always been calculating.
The emperor stared slightly, thinking that he had been fighting with Geng Hai without concession just now, which was quite unforgiving......
An Ping knew that Feng Yan and Geng Hai were in trouble, but he was messing around, why?!
Could it be that all this is Anping's instructions?
So, why did Anping do this?!
The emperor subconsciously turned the jade wrench on his thumb, and again and again, his chest was surging.
Therefore, Anping's purpose is to provoke himself, and then let himself be in a fit of anger, exempt himself from Feng Yan's errand, and punish Feng Yan......
If you punish Feng Yan yourself......
The emperor was blessed for a moment, and when he thought of something, his pupils shrank.
I see, the marriage must be for the sake of the marriage!
Once he punishes Feng Yan, Feng Yan is a guilty body, how can he afford the "glory" of marriage! Even if he really decreed marriage, Anping can also use this to push the horse, and he will be in a passive situation because of this!
And Anping gave her the space to breathe, and she could take advantage of the time when Feng Yan was punished to quickly set up a family affair for Feng Yan......
Then the weakness that I used to pinch Anping no longer exists.
I see!
"I, the imperial sister, really played well, and saved Zhao from Wei with one hand!" The emperor narrowed his eyes, a chill flashed in his eyes, and his voice was like ice.
"Where can I compare to the emperor's eyes like a torch." Cen Yin said appropriately.
The emperor was complacent for a while, then frowned again, and felt a faint pain in his forehead.
Although he saw through Anping's intentions, this matter was not easy to handle.
The emperor bowed his head slightly, raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Geng Hai was slapped in the face as soon as he returned to Beijing this time, and he must not be happy in his heart......
Moreover, Geng Hai has been away from Beijing for three years, and presumably he and the Manchu civil and military are waiting to see the attitude of the emperor towards the Weiguo Mansion. At this time, if he was on Feng Yan's side, wouldn't he be helping Feng Yan slap Geng Hai in the face?!
Cen Yin looked at the emperor sideways, his eyes flashed under the crow's blue eyelashes, and a sneer flashed at the corner of his red lips, and then his face was expressionless.
