Chapter 513: The General Stays
The second day soon arrived, and although they had their own thoughts, they had one thing in common: they knew that today was an important and meaningful day.
It's just that the sky is not beautiful, the north wind is troublesome, the cold wave strikes again, there is a spring rain in the middle of the night, and this morning I woke up not only the spring is completely lost, a little cold, and the sky is also covered with thick clouds.
For Vinland, it has been proven that her father still loves her very much. Even though Wen Qing was entangled in analyzing the pros and cons several times last night, the king of Joseon still did not let Wen Lan enter the palace directly, but put the decision-making power in the hands of his daughter.
"Lan'er, if you don't want to stay in Da Zhou, go back to North Korea with your father. Your queen misses you. After you go back, with your father and queen mother taking care of you, and your brothers loving you, you can still be that carefree little princess again. β
"Since I was a child, you have all indulged me. I do whatever I want. But not this time, I want to have a beginning and an end. Father, Sister Wenqing's idea last night was very good. I agree with that. "Vinland did a flawless job.
"Especially the part about General Lee. Let's mention Sister Wenqing's arrangement to the emperor in a while. As for my one, I'd like to say it privately. After all, you know, I still want to save some face. Vinland hung her head just right.
"Lan'er, as soon as the mouth is opened, it can't be taken back. You're so ......."
Vinland interrupted her father and queen with a smile, and gave her a good reassurance. And her father insisted, and finally promised that he and Wen Qing would do their best to help her in the future......
Wen Lan's obedience made Wen Qing both happy and surprised, and a little inexplicably disappointed. This credit is clearly hers, why is it all snatched away by Vinland at this moment? β¦β¦
Today, the emperor has dismissed the early dynasty.
There are so many things.
Before the aftermath of the old seven was completed, he didn't want to face a large group of courtiers and princes who had disputes due to different positions or interests.
The king of Joseon went very early, and the emperor just happened to use the excuse to postpone the early dynasty.
He had already imagined that the king of Joseon might open his mouth wide, so when the other party proposed to let Wen Qing enter Li Chunmen, the emperor was not too surprised.
In fact, for him, the object of marriage with Korea was Li Chun and not the other sons, and the emperor was very happy to be prejudiced. At least his rights will not be dispersed.
But he also knew that Li Chun probably wouldn't agree. However, this was the first request made by the king of Joseon. How could he refuse? After the rejection, what should we talk about next? β¦β¦
The emperor walked around twice with his back on his back.
"Summoning Li Chun into the palace." Let's see what Li Chun means. The emperor's thoughts at this moment are the same as Cheng Ziyu last night, instead of being a bad guy and saying no, it is better to let Li Chun deal with it himself......
The emperor believed that he could handle it.
"Li Chun has no parents, I promised him, and I will not force him in marriage. I had to ask him what he meant first. β
The king of Joseon expressed his understanding. The emperor did not refuse, and his heart was already happy. Wenqing is very good in all aspects, it's a big deal to just ask for a concubine, how could Li Chun not be? β¦β¦
Over there, Li Chun had just gone to the Jingwei Yamen to shake around, and when he heard that Cheng Ziyu had entered the palace, he also planned to go to the Queen Mother to ask for peace. He really wanted to know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd by the few people who were chattering last night.
But not long after entering the harem, the emperor came to him again, and he could only turn back and go forward again.
Here, Wen Qing is planning to have a chance encounter.
There were a lot of people yesterday, and Li Chun didn't know if she had noticed her. The emperor has not yet responded, and if he wants to make sure that Li Chun nods, why should he make a good impression on him first......
Wen Qing's people had long been eyeing Li Chun.
Li Chun chose a path with few people, which is in line with Wenqing's meaning.
After calculating the distance, she took a few henchmen around a certain corner, just blocking the way.
"Princess, what kind of flower is this? It's so fragrant and beautiful, we haven't seen it in North Korea. "Henchman Xiu'er fingers a flower wrapped in the leeward and sunny place.
On the vertical flower stand, there are already yellow-white clusters of flowers in full bloom. In particular, the few vines in the high places are in full swing.
"This ...... If you're not mistaken, it's probably a drunken flower. β
"What flowers? Haven't heard of it before? β
"That is, Tu Tu. This flower grows in the south, and it is not suitable for us to grow in North Korea, so you don't know it very well. Da Zhou has many skilled craftsmen, not only transplanted this flower to the palace, but also made it open two months early, which is really gratifying. This flower blooms vigorously and gorgeously, the fruit can be used in wine, and the nectar can also be used to extract essence, but it is a flower with multiple uses. I don't know if our home country will have the opportunity to introduce and cultivate it in the future. β
Wen Qing's eyes were fascinated, his expression was intoxicated, he raised his head, smiled, stretched out his hand, twisted his fingers, pulled the best flower, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, leaving her most beautiful side face and beautiful swan neck in the direction of the way she came.
The light in her eyes told her that Li Chun was only more than ten zhang away from her.
"Qunfang Spectrum" said that because it is "yellow like wine, it is solid and unitary as 'ι ΄ιΏ'." There is also a poem: The mountain path is cloudy and rainy, and the spring breeze is warm but cold. Because the weather is uncertain, it is necessary to protect the peony...... That's what we're talking about. β
"The princess is really knowledgeable."
"I don't know much about this. I don't know much about this flower. I don't know if it's wrong. Vinland said with a chuckle. If you see anyone from the southwest, you can ask. β
Seeing Li Chun getting closer and closer, her little heart was about to jump out.
She blocked the way, and even the topic of their words after the greeting was ready.
She wants to make a good impression on men: erudite and modest, elegant and beautiful, just like that flower, blooming brilliantly but not too noisy, so that people will feel good at a glance and want to be close.
That Cheng Ziyu was vulgar, and he didn't know how much ink there was in his belly. She wanted Li Chun to see that she and his fiancΓ©e were completely different.
As for this flower, she also carefully selected it. This is the name of the wine! The flower, which is called the name of the wine, seems to be in order to fulfill the two of them right now. She is like a tussel, glamorous and refined, he is like a drunk, mellow and seductive. The two of them should be united as one, like this flower, like that wine, and share this fame.
Wen Qing's heart blossomed, and he said in his heart, this is what God means, right? Let this blooming drunken liquor make love for the two of them.
After she made up her mind yesterday, she deliberately asked people to search for all the information about Li Chun, and naturally found out that Li Chun loves wine. So she chose this flower with the name of the wine, just to attract Li Chun's attention, attract his attention, and arouse his interest.
In addition, she also knew that Li Chun had been in the southwest for many years, and this drunken flower was precisely a specialty of the southwest. Li Chun must be familiar with it. As long as this topic is raised, the two of them can take advantage of it to say a few more words.
So she wants to throw bricks and lead the jade, so that he can't help but come to talk to herself.
"If the princess likes it, the slave maid will pick a few flowers for you and take them back to insert in the bottle, right?"
"Don't. They are so lively, so lively, so full of vitality, let's let them live freely......"
Several henchmen praised and praised together, busy praising flowers and praising people, and Wen Qing over there only smiled perfectly, waiting for Li Chun to walk towards her step by step...... Several of them have blocked this path, and this encounter is certain......
Li Chun turned around and saw several people in front of him.
This road is the closest, and he doesn't bother to change the route, so he walks straight and fast.
The woman's talk was in his ears, but he didn't hear it.
The road ahead was blocked, and the noisy women didn't have the slightest intention of giving way, he was inexplicably irritable.
He was too lazy to bother, so he simply stepped through the flowers and trees on the side of the road, and had no intention of stopping......
Wen Qing was disappointed.
But in an instant, he rejoiced again.
This man does not squint, is decent and not frivolous, and is a good son-in-law.
But since she has made up her mind to "meet", how can she let the fat in her mouth fly. Seeing that she was about to pass by, she turned around just right, then bowed and took the initiative to speak.
"Say hello to General Lee." Wen Qing's voice is touching and pleasant. She was comforting herself: Li Chunding was trying to avoid suspicion, so she would rather take the initiative to walk from the side. What nice people.
But Wenqing didn't wait for the expected response.
Li Chun's pace did not stop, his expression did not change, he was still cold, he didn't even give her a look, he only raised a few fingers of his left hand slightly, and then skipped it directly......
Wen Qing's smile froze. comforted himself again: he is a princess, he is naturally not rude, and he definitely didn't mean it, he should have been urgently summoned by the emperor and didn't care about it or didn't see himself clearly......
Then, Wen Qing quickly gave Na Xiu'er a look.
The girl hurriedly trotted a few steps and spread her arms to block Li Chun.
"Is the general a little rude? Our master saluted you, and if you don't return the salute, you should at least say hello, right? β
Li Chun misplaced his back molars, turned around, and glanced at Wen Qing.
Wen Qing stood under the flower tree, wearing a layered Seiko embroidered skirt, which complemented the yellow and white liquor with flowers behind him. The light bamboo spring green dress lined her skin even more than snow, and it was a little more delicate than the flowers behind her.
Li Chun didn't know how to dress, but the woman's tricks and spring colors were all written on her face and worn on her body.
Sure enough, it's spring.
No matter how bad the weather is, it can't stop those sprouting spring hearts!
He slowly turned his head back and glared at the girl coldly.
"I don't know your master, why bother to salute!"
Wen Qing: "......"
Her face could no longer hide her stiffness.
Two days ago, she followed the king into Beijing, he stood behind the emperor, didn't see her? Yesterday he helped clean up the mess, she was standing next to Wen Lan, and he didn't notice her? When they were talking about flowers just now, they mentioned the words "North Korea" and "princess" several times, but he didn't hear it?
But Wenqing would rather believe that he really didn't know, and it was impossible for him to deliberately pretend to be ignorant.
"Xiu'er, there are no rules! General Li has a lot of opportunities, how can he deal with the general with such trivial matters. "Don't know her? Then she is introduced by me. "I've met General Lee, I'm from North Korea. This is the third time you and I have met. I haven't been able to talk to the general, so ......"
"You're a Korean princess?" Li Chun interrupted directly.
"Exactly."
"That's polite. Excuse me. Li Chun hugged his fists and turned around again to leave.
"......" That's it?
Wen Qing was in a hurry, and walked a few steps forward, but he felt that he couldn't stop him in person, so he could only call a sentence:
"The general stays."
Xiu'er also understood, pulled another girl, and blocked Li Chun again:
"General, I wonder if the general can do a good job for our princess?"
"No, I'm busy......"
"Today the wind is strong, and our princess's veil is blown by the wind to the flower tree." Xiu'er didn't intend to ask Li Chun's consent at all, so she kept talking and pointed to the plum tree not far away......
There, a pale yellow handkerchief was stuck in a branch, swaying in the wind.
"The general's martial arts are world-famous, so please do me a little favor? Help our princess take off the veil? β
A little favor? Li Chun had a sneer on his face.
These people are talking about gods, really think he is a fool?
From the moment he entered the harem, he felt that someone was watching him in the dark. The palace is scattered with the secret guards that the emperor needs, so there is absolutely no one in the palace who dares to do such a thing as keeping an eye on him. Even those bold princes. He had long guessed that it had something to do with the North Koreans.
The king of Joseon was not so idle, so there were only two princesses left. Vinlan has suffered countless losses in the past few months, and she has long been obedient, and it can't be her. After meeting Wen Qing head-on, he knew that he had guessed correctly. This woman, staring at him all the way, must have a plan.
But he still didn't want to avoid her.
First, why should he avoid it? He is the Lord and she is the guest. The Great Zhou was the suzerain, and Korea was only a small vassal state. Even if he crashes into it, what can they do? Second, he wanted to know what she wanted. Third, last night's Vinland God was mysterious, could it have something to do with this?
Li Chun also came with this kind of mentality.
If he couldn't see that Wen Qing had the intention of hooking up at this moment, then he would have lived in vain for so many years.
I fell by chance, dropped my handkerchief, hung up a kite, lost a token, broke my foot, got lost, got sick, and fell into the water...... He has also been through a hundred battles over the years.
At this moment, Wen Qing really thinks very highly of himself.
Trick.
More than one person has played it before. It's just that she is not as bold as her.
The veil is a personal object, whether she has a back hand or not, he is not so stupid.
Li Chun waved his hand to signal the guards patrolling in the distance to come over.
"General, please don't be public." Wen Qing was pitiful. "It's a woman's personal property, it's too embarrassing. As soon as I saw some princesses admiring the flowers nearby, they told them that they should make fun of me when they heard that I couldn't even hold a veil to see the flowers. β
Li Chun wanted to greet the chamberlain not far away.
"Let them find a ladder and take it down for the princess."
"No, it doesn't. The wind is so strong today, and by the time the ladder comes, the veil will have already blown away. Bother the general to help me get a handkerchief, okay? Wen Qing must have written down this favor. β
Wen Qing bent his knees again.
"Even if it's in front of Sister Wenlan and the king. I'm tired of the general. β
The veil on the tree had been prepared in advance, not the one she had held in her hand earlier. The handkerchief is silky and smooth, and it has also been processed, and the oily grease has been applied in advance, and Li Chun will leave a handprint and fingerprint when she takes it off. When the grease dried, his finger prints were completely left.
If Li Chun is obedient, the veil is their token of love. Li Chunruo didn't know each other...... She used the handkerchief to pinch him, accusing him of taking advantage and then clapping his hands and leaving. She doesn't need anyone to believe it, as long as she makes the emperor continue to have a headache......
Li Chun chuckled.
"Well, that's a deal. I take off the veil for you, and you owe me a favor. β
