Chapter 374: Ten Eight
Everyone knows that the so-called invitation to Cheng's parents to be present is nothing more than a formality.
Li Chun opened his mouth to beg, the emperor and the queen mother should go, no one knows, and the Cheng family dares to say no? At the end of the day, they're just a small business. Do you dare?
Father-in-law Yu got a look and hurriedly stepped forward.
It was still early for everyone to make peace, and they could see that the Holy Lord had given General Li a marriage, even if it was willing to wait until dawn.
"Good! Then let's feast! Happy tonight, everyone will not get drunk and go home! As soon as the emperor raised his arms, everyone dared not applaud.
The banquet has been prepared for a long time, and the hot pot with local characteristics prepared in the autumn night, accompanied by ten years of warm Huadiao old wine, was immediately delivered.
The Pan family will do things, so they arrange for people to start singing and dancing, and prepare a large number of fireworks and firecrackers for celebration. heard that the Queen Mother wanted to watch juggling, so she immediately transferred all those artists and hawkers from the street to the open space in front of the theater to give the Queen Mother a lively time.
For a time, the whole garden was jubilant inside and out.
When Zhu Changan came over after treating the "wound on his hand", he was full of joy. Everyone was laughing, praising and praising him, and his loss was getting bigger and bigger.
He saw that Li Chun and Cheng Ziyu were being arranged by the Holy Lord to sit down at the same table, accept the scrutiny from everyone, and reap full blessings.
Li Chun grimaced, as if reluctant.
Cheng Ziyu lowered her head, as if she was embarrassed.
Li Chun also opened his mouth quietly, deliberately pushing what "men and women are not at the same table", which made everyone laugh and persuade a bunch of people, please, coax, joke......
Zhu Chang looked at everyone quietly, from the emperor to the guests, couldn't they see that the two of them were coy?
The emperor smiled and whispered to Li Chun, "I just said that I would never give up, and I said that I moved my heart at a glance, I thought you were fearless, and now you will be cowardly?" I don't dare to sit at a table, how can I marry my daughter-in-law back in the future? ”
The crowd laughed.
"When the old man nods, you two will be an unmarried couple. Those false gifts can be avoided. Don't be ashamed. You're not young, and it's long overdue to marry a daughter-in-law. If it weren't for Jinxi's young age, I would have liked to let you get married tomorrow, which would have been a matter of my heart. ”
The emperor's face was overflowing with joy, Li Chun maintained a light smile of "I have to", he has been with the emperor for many years, and he knows that letting the emperor take the lead in everything is the best way to benefit.
"The emperor really loves General Li." As soon as Concubine Li opened her mouth, she revealed a sour taste. Worry? Li Chun's matter is actually the emperor's heart? Absurd! Her Qi'er has never made the emperor so concerned.
"Hmph, I don't love him." The emperor didn't care what Concubine Li was referring to. "Everyone said that he was delayed for my errands. For the sake of this cub, I admitted how much pressure I had and carried a lot of infamy. In the future, if he doesn't marry a daughter-in-law and pass on the lineage, won't he become my pot? I don't want to carry it! Now it's okay, hurry up and start a family, and see who dares to gossip in the future! It's better to give birth quickly and have a few more. ”
Another laugh.
On this point, everyone does agree. Li Chuncheng got married and had children, but he could make many strange and unpleasant rumors self-defeating.
Joke after joke.
Someone immediately answered, saying that General Li was in good health, and although he started late, as long as he was fast, he would be able to catch up quickly......
It is also said that it is a good thing that the county lord of Jinxi is young, and he can have more children in the future. As far as General Li's quality is concerned, he will hold two people for at least three years and five years for five years......
Cheng Ziyu's face was burning, and the flattery of the people who spoke was obvious, taking advantage of the drunken excitement, the emperor was happy, and he didn't even care about the occasion. In the past, where did these people dare to talk about Li Chun like this.
Someone came up to toast and said: Three or five is not enough, at least ten or eight must be born, and a tiger general will serve the Great Zhou in the future......
Li Chun didn't say anything, but at this moment he picked up the wine cup and touched it, and then drank it all in one gulp.
"Naturally, the more the merrier, the better! Ten or eight, no problem! After speaking, he also glanced at Cheng Ziyu.
This glance was meaningful, and Cheng Ziyu couldn't wait to get under the table.
She knew that he deliberately, deliberately stirred up the atmosphere, deliberately branded the relationship between him and her into everyone's hearts, and deliberately made those who had ill intentions have to take care of everyone, put away the deeds that sabotaged the two of them, and cut off their thoughts about her......
The audience suddenly boiled. The Emperor laughed too.
As if encouraged, a large circle of people gathered around Li Chun to toast.
Li Chun did not refuse to come.
And the cup is bottoming out!
The scene exploded!
Unheard of, unseen!
In the past, except for the emperor and a few old ministers in the court, who toasted him and did it? Even if the prince came to clink glasses, he took a small sip politely.
Seeing that he poured dozens of cups in a row, Cheng Ziyu coughed in a low voice, suggesting that he still wanted to see the Cheng family, don't get drunk.
And Cheng Ziyu's move was captured by several people, and the coaxing was repeated again.
It's just that this time, everyone's target also brought Cheng Ziyu, and a few people were eager to try, and Cheng Ziyu also persuaded him to drink.
Li Chun got up quickly and blocked Cheng Ziyu's body like a wall.
"What's coming at me!"
He held a pot in one hand and a cup in the other, poured the wine in the cup, and touched the cups in the hands of the people who had just surrounded Cheng Ziyu to persuade him to drink.
Then it was drunk again.
"From now on, her business will be my business! No one can force what she doesn't want to do, I will deal with the things she is embarrassed about, and I will settle the things she doesn't like. I like the people she likes, and I hate the people she hates, so please give me face......"
Those people were immediately shocked, and they pulled the corners of their mouths again and again, and hurriedly drank the wine in their cups.
At this moment, the sons were surprised, the ladies praised, the girls envied, the queen mother smiled, the emperor nodded, the eldest prince snorted coldly, the fifth prince smiled bitterly, and Zhu Changan retreated......
Li Chun turned around leisurely and stroked Ziyu's head.
"Did you hear all of my words? It's not wine nonsense, it's a guarantee. If you have any difficulties in the future, come to me. Whoever wants to bully you, just call me and I'll help you out! ”
Obediently, how many people sighed one after another, shocked that the enemy couldn't envy Cheng Ziyu, and secretly sighed What kind of luck is this, getting such a strong and domineering backer.
This is said loudly and fully, but no one doubts the truth. Everyone knows that he does what he says. In the past, this Li Chun didn't care about anything, but now he occasionally cares, but I'm afraid that he will really try his best to maintain it......
Many young girls and their relatives secretly stomped their feet, such a good son-in-law, why didn't he work hard to fight for it again? The man has no family, and marrying a daughter is not the same as recruiting a son-in-law? After that, he will do his best to take care of and protect the Yue family.
Good luck for the Cheng family!
Everyone has the same consensus: after today, this county lord can only make friends, make friends, and welcome each other, and never offend one or two......
Li Chun smiled softly at Cheng Ziyu again, and saw that many girls pulled their veils.
"Also, I don't drink much, so I won't get drunk. It's just rice wine, I won't get drunk in a thousand cups. You don't have to worry! ”
As soon as the words "a thousand cups are not drunk" came out, Li Chun once again pulled everyone's attention back, and raised the atmosphere again, and the noisy persuasion and toast made the sound of wine more and more hot.
Cheng Ziyu took a sip of wine, and in the past, she only tasted the sour taste of wine, which made her feel that her lips and teeth were full of sweetness. She knows that there is sugar in her heart, and drinking water is sweet.
I have heard a lot of good words, but from the person who said it to the person who listened, it may not be that the whisper cannot be taken seriously, it is difficult to implement it, and it is forgotten when it is said. Listen to it, and it is enough to rejoice at that time......
She came with great hardship and was ready to move forward, but he cleared the way for her. She was scarred, but he felt it and knew how to make her worry-free.
What he said was not false, and he did it for her. At this point, Zhu Changan couldn't catch up.
His words were all promises, not only to her, but also to everyone including the emperor and queen to testify. For this point, he is worth her dedication......
At this moment, Cheng Ziyu no longer hid the softness in her eyes, and only smiled quietly......
"Mother, this is the most right thing I have done in recent times! I didn't expect to be so happy to see him getting married. The emperor whispered to the Queen Mother.
"He's so important to me, he's almost grown up with me, and I really believe in him. And he has the ability to have military power, which can be said to be pivotal to the throne. Therefore, I have always controlled his marriage, and I don't want him to marry a noble girl. He's always been thoughtful, or he's felt it a long time ago.
Then one time, when he came back from the southwest, I wanted to reward him, and when I asked him what he wanted, he said that he did not want to marry. From that day on, I became the one who was in a hurry. This has been even more true in the past two years, and I have secretly mentioned it several times, but he has forcibly refused. His marriage was indeed largely delayed by me.
I forced Cheng Ziyu to him this time, but I was actually apprehensive. But after I did it, I felt very relieved and happy. Businesswoman...... He was indeed wronged.
In my heart, no matter how good this Cheng Ziyu is, he is not worthy of him. Fortunately, I don't like it, but I don't hate it either. Since he promised me, he will definitely live a good life. And the queen mother, I am happy. There's another reason why I'm really ......."
"Well, the Queen Mother knows."
The Queen Mother's eyes sank. "Ziyu is liked by the queen mother, she has a good heart, and she is a match for him, and she is not wronged by him. In the future, we will take care of them more. Ziyu there, there is a queen mother. It's Li Chun, the child always hides his thoughts, and the queen mother is afraid that he has wronged Ziyu. He never approached women, that aspect...... Wouldn't it be too pure-hearted? That's it, the emperor did a good job today, Li Chunmune, I don't know if he will take the initiative, and arrange for them to get along more in the future. ”
The Emperor nodded repeatedly.
"It's still resentful, it's not easy to be used with a pure heart and few desires, and it was I who asked for it back then. I know, and I'll look at the arrangement. The Emperor took a sip of wine and sighed again.
"But the queen mother, he can only rest assured if he has the heart. Have you ever heard that people who don't bluff often have deeper ideas. He's so desireless, and I wish he could live a simpler life.
You know, he used to hate socializing, but you see, he's doing things he doesn't want to do. I feel too guilty about him. Sometimes I talk to him from the bottom of my heart, but he doesn't believe him. I always feel that this is not a taste. I always thought that if he ......"
The emperor's mouth was blocked by the teacup brought by the Queen Mother.
"The emperor has a lot of wine."
The Emperor raised his head and drank it all.
"Yes, it's easy to lose your words when you drink too much."
"Again, if the emperor feels guilty, let him live well and live peacefully, that is the real compensation......"
"Yes!" The emperor poured himself tea again......
Li Chun came up to toast the emperor and the queen mother.
No, as soon as the wine cup was put down, I saw Zhu Chang'an, who was coughing back......
Concubine Zhao rushed out again.
The lively atmosphere on the field finally calmed down a little.
Zhu Changan stood outside the door for a while, calming most of the pain and resentment before entering.
Concubine Zhao made a big move, and everyone's attention was finally pulled back a lot.
Only then did many people remember that the emperor also promised the injured Zhu Changan a grace.
"If you want something, say it!"
The emperor had a smile on his face, a sharp look in his eyes, and his words were full of faint warnings. "As long as it's not the same as Li Chun, I want to ask to marry the county lord of Jinxi, as long as it's not too much, I will comply. House, silver, tell me about it. ”
The emperor knew that the fourth child was short of money, and his eyelids were shallow, so what he wanted was nothing more than some playthings outside his body.
The emperor had even thought that he could waive the amount of silver he had taken earlier, and give him an additional three thousand taels. Since he loved to do business, he took the money and did it. Even if you lose money, it's not that you can't afford to lose. Even if it's a lesson, it's not a bad thing.
"Thank you, Father. Erchen thought about it. Although the son won the third place, the gap with the first place General Li is really not small. The son was ashamed and felt inadequate. Therefore the son does not want the house to be silver. ”
When Zhu Changan opened his mouth, many people were surprised. Cheng Ziyu squinted his eyes and found that he was speaking very seriously.
"My son wants this opportunity to learn and use his strength to make up for his own shortcomings. The son wanted to be like General Li and become a useful person to the imperial court and the Great Zhou. The son also wants to leave his enthusiasm for Da Zhou. But what the son lacks is not opportunities or experience, but a learning environment and a master.
Therefore, the son wants to learn some real skills. The son felt that he had some talent in learning martial arts, so he wanted to follow General Li's example and go to Bianguan to study for a few years with a famous teacher. Please fulfill it! ”
Cheng Ziyu lowered her eyes.
Transsexualized?
I have to say that he grasped this opportunity very well. Concubine Zhao has no power, so she has never been able to help him. If he wants to go up, he must have strength. Regardless of military power, at least stay away from the court, there is no danger.
Zhu Changzhe also thought of this, so he begged to go to Kang Anbo yesterday to practice.
But Zhu Changzhe has no prophet, so he doesn't dare to be as bold as Zhu Chang'an and says that he will study for a few years. Zhu Changan is different, he knows that the emperor's health will be fine in a few years, and the situation in the court will not change greatly in a few years. The next few years will be a period of time when the battle between the eldest prince and the crown prince is becoming increasingly fierce and losing each other.
Instead of spending time in the capital, dealing with all kinds of emergencies, and worrying about the Hades fighting and the little ghosts will suffer, it is better to go out and give it a go.
It's a good idea. At least you can learn something, mix up some contacts, raise some reputation, and cultivate some usable cronies......
