Chapter Sixty-Seven: Something Happened Above the Birthday Banquet
Fang You didn't say anything more, turned around and left. Common sense jade grabbed her, looked at her half-jokingly, and said, "Don't you want to know why I said this?" ”
"It's nothing more than trying to tease me again." Fang You said.
"Not really this time." Common sense jade explained, "Just now I saw that Lord Wei was almost rushing over when he saw the way Seventh Brother was holding you. Do you think he doesn't care about you? ”
Fang You shook his head, "It's just a matter of time before he cares." ”
"Ayu, I have always wondered why you still like him, but you can't be with him generously?" Common sense Jade asked.
"Then why don't you stay with the person you like, but let the emperor marry you and your senior brother?" Fang You asked rhetorically.
Common sense Jade finally shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and then looked like he understood, "Maybe it's the same reason as you." ”
The two looked at each other and suddenly smiled. Girls are sometimes like this, some words don't have to be said completely, and when you smile, the other party will know what it means.
"By the way, Your Highness." After the two sat down at the banquet, Fang Yu quietly asked Common Sense Jade, "I've always been curious, who is the person you like?" ”
Common sense jade seemed to be joking, and gestured to Fang Yu with his eyes. Fang You looked up and saw that there was only one Seventh Prince opposite, and sitting next to him were two old ministers in the court.
Fang You was suddenly frightened by his thoughts, "Is it the Seventh Highness?" Can ......"
"But he's my brother, isn't he?" Common sense jade said seriously, and then laughed again, "I'm kidding you." ”
Although Common Sense Jade said so, thinking back to the time when he was in the palace before, Fang You always felt that it might be more than what she said. The Seventh Prince is not Zhao Guifei's biological son, but the emperor handed him over to Zhao Guifei to raise after the death of the Seventh Prince's biological mother, and everyone who has been in the palace knows it. But even if they are not the same mother, they are children of the same father...... I hope that common sense jade is really joking with himself.
Just when Fang Youzheng was thinking wildly, the voice of the eunuch in charge on the high platform came, saying that the emperor was preparing to confer the title on the person who quelled the last "Yuqiu faction rebellion".
Fang You didn't want to hear this, she drank glass after glass. Master's affairs have always been a hurdle in her heart.
Common sense jade quietly grabbed her arm, didn't turn her head, just moved her mouth and said to her, "I know you're sad, but don't drink too much." ”
Fang You put down the wine glass and patted her hand on his arm, signaling that she understood. After all, this is His Royal Highness's birthday banquet, and you can't just care about your own sadness.
"Fengtian carries the emperor and summons him: I remember the seventh prince Chang Tan, Dali Temple Qing Wei Qinghuan has made meritorious contributions to quelling the rebellion in the capital, and Chang Tan is specially named the King of Rui. And gave Liu Zhengyu, the daughter of the military department's Shangshu. In addition, give Dali Temple Qingwei a thousand taels of gold, thousands of acres of fertile land. Emperor Liang listened to the eunuch in charge read out the holy decree, looked at Chang Yan and smiled.
"Son-in-law, thank your father, Emperor Longen." Chang Yan left his seat, then knelt directly below the emperor, and said, without the slightest fluctuation in his eyes, as if he had known that he would be married today.
"Thank you, Saint Longen." Wei Qinghuan and the military department Shangshu also left their seats, knelt on the ground and said.
The officials sitting below all congratulated Wei Qinghuan, the Seven Princes, and the Shangshu of the Military Department, and suddenly the whole banquet was noisy again.
Hearing the emperor's marriage, Fang You subconsciously glanced at Common Sense Jade, and saw that there was no wave on her face, could it be that she was really joking with herself? But it was normal for his brother to have some reaction when he was given a marriage, so Fang Youtan asked, "Your Highness, this is also a little too sudden, isn't it?" ”
"You have been in the palace for a long time, and you know that there are more things than this sudden, all in the thoughts of your father." Common sense jade took a sip of wine and said, "And...... The seventh brother has already reached the age of marriage. ”
"Your Highness......" Fang You whispered, and was about to say something more, but she thought about it and gave up and said no more. Common sense jade didn't ask again.
Fang You felt that she might have thought too much, but she didn't see the hand of the common sense jade secretly clenching the sleeve.
"Today is the birthday of the fifth princess, and I have one more thing to announce...... Emperor Liang said after motioning for the three of them to return to their seats, "I have found a good husband for the fifth princess, and this person is Xiao Qibai, the governor of the Pure World Academy. ”
Common sense jade and Xiao Qibai also left their seats to thank them. There was another congratulatory voice from the seats below.
After the two of them returned to their seats, Emperor Liang spoke again, "Old Seven......
When the seventh prince heard this, he hurriedly left his seat and knelt in front of Emperor Liang, "The son is here." ”
"I've been having a headache about one thing these days, do you know what's going on?" Emperor Liang said.
Chang Tan thought for a while, and then blurted out, "Back to my father, but because of the Xu Li clan?" ”
"Hmm." Emperor Liang smiled, "I really didn't mistake you." Are you willing to share my worries? ”
"The sons and daughters should do their best to share their father's worries and solve problems." Chang said.
"That's very good, I will appoint you as the general of Zhengyuan again, and bring 300,000 elite soldiers to solve problems for me, how about it?"
"Erchen went to the soup to fight the fire, and he did not give up!" Chang Yan squinted at Zhang Qingyuan, who was sitting on the left side of Emperor Liang, and said.
"Wei Qinghuan, Xiao Qibai." Emperor Liang shouted again.
The two also hurriedly knelt beside Chang Yan.
"Wei Qinghuan, Feng joined the army, Xiao Qibai, sealed the prison army, and went to assist Lao Qi." Emperor Liang glanced at the three of them, and then said, "When you return from the victory, I will personally officiate the wedding for you." ”
Fang You stared at the three people kneeling on the ground with some incredulity, are they going to the frontier to fight? Why, it's them? Wei Qinghuan and the Seventh Prince obviously made meritorious contributions, why were they arranged to fight? What kind of logic is this? Or is there someone behind the scenes?
"Your Highness, did you hear that?" Fang You tugged at the sleeve of the common sense jade.
"I hear you." Common sense jade hammered his hand and fist on his leg, thinking that the emperor would abolish the prince because of the prince's drunken flirtation with Hua Jieyu and set up the seventh brother instead, but he didn't expect the emperor to send the seventh brother to the frontier to fight! It must be Zhang Qingyuan, an old thief, who harmed himself by stealing chickens and rice. She raised her eyes and glanced at Zhang Qingyuan, only to see that he was sitting with his eyes closed, with a leisurely expression.
Fang You saw that the common sense jade glanced at Zhang Qingyuan, and said, "Is it Zhang Qingyuan's ghost?" What does he want to do? ”
"This old thief must have other plans." Common sense jade said.
"Then why did Senior Brother go? This must also be Zhang Qingyuan's arrangement, what kind of conspiracy does he have? Fang Yu said.
"Let's wait." Common sense jade suddenly smiled.
After the banquet, Common Sense Jade told her that she had something to do and left quickly. Then, Fang You saw Chang Yan walking towards this side, as if he was coming towards him. She was in a hurry to go to Xiao Qibai for questioning, so she pretended not to see it and was about to leave, but she wanted to be grabbed by Chang Yan's wrist.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?" Chang Yan asked.
"I'm not in a hurry......," Fang You said, his eyes looking in the direction Xiao Qibai left.
"That's right, accompany me to do something." Chang Yan looked at Fang Yu and smiled as if he was deliberately teasing her.
"Huh?" Fang You didn't know how to answer for a while, and said anxiously, "Actually, I have something urgent, really urgent." ”
"Then why didn't you say you were in a hurry?" Chang Yan chased after him and asked.
"I'm ......" Fang You was so anxious that he wanted to stomp his feet.
"Alright, let's go." Chang Yan said with a smile.
Fang You saluted him as if he had been pardoned, and walked away quickly. Wei Qinghuan looked at the figures of the two, although he didn't know what they were talking about, he was still so angry that his teeth were about to grind out.
Fang You hurriedly followed the direction that Xiao Qibai had taken just now, wondering in his heart, the direction of leaving the palace was not here, what did Senior Brother want to do?
She looked around for a while, and heard the voices of two people behind an unmanned rockery, these two people were Xiao Qibai and Common Sense Jade. Fang You was a little curious in his heart, so he leaned closer to listen to what the two of them were talking about.
"You can take this token." Common Sense Jade handed a golden token to Xiao Qibai's hand.
"This is ......" Xiao Qibai glanced at the words on the token, his face was shocked, "Zhang Qingyuan's ......" was covered by Common Sense Jade before he finished speaking. "Shh She said, "I stole it while he wasn't looking, and now he must be in a hurry to look for it, so you must keep it." ”
"Don't worry." Xiao Qibai glanced at the token again, then nodded, and then looked at Common Sense Jade with a worried and distressed face, "It's just, Your Highness, he still ...... you"
"No matter how you say it, he's ...... My biological father won't do anything to me anymore. In order to reassure Xiao Qibai, Common Sense Jade endured the nausea and the extreme disgust in his heart and said.
"Your Highness......" Xiao Qibai really wanted to embrace the common sense jade into his arms, but he knew that even if he got the emperor's marriage, he still didn't have that qualification. Besides, the marriage was only part of their plan.
"Xiao Qibai, are you really willing to do this? In doing so, you may have a life-threatening ......" decisive as common sense, and there will be times when you are soft and hesitant. Although she knew that Xiao Qibai would not reject her, and she would not change her mind, she still asked this sentence at this moment.
"Of course, for the sake of His Highness, I do." Xiao abandoned the white way.
Fang You fell into a deeper shock, and the amount of information in the words of the two made her a little breathless. Common sense jade is Zhang Qingyuan's daughter, so between Zhao Guifei and Zhang Qingyuan...... In this way, it is past to say that common sense jade likes the Seven Princes. It seems that Common Sense Jade has known about this for a long time. And what does Common Sense Jade want Senior Brother to do? Why is there a fear for your life? Could it be that he went to the frontier to supervise the army? In this way, the common sense jade asked the emperor to give marriage to facilitate their deployment of this matter? No way! She must not let her brother take this risk! She has already lost her master, and she can't lose her brother again.
Fang You sneaked away while the two of them hadn't found out yet.
As soon as Fang You returned home, he saw Shi Nian washing clothes again, "Why are you washing clothes again?" I've been seeing you three or four times a day these days, and you're doing laundry. She couldn't help but think of Shi Nian's lazy personality before.
"I ...... Recently, I have been drinking medicine, and there is always a smell of medicine on my body, and I am afraid that it will smoke you......" Shi Nianyong deliberately covered his face with his sleeve and said.
"The smell of medicine is good." Fang You said, and was about to pull away Shi Nian's arm, "Let me see your face, is it better?" ”
"Much better...... It's already much better. Shi Nian hurriedly stepped back, and said while still covering his face with his sleeve.
