Lu Yunniang couldn't help but wonder, and asked in a low voice: "Who is this Song Kaifu, if he doesn't come, everyone won't dare to move chopsticks?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan smiled and said: "Even the saint is afraid of him, who do you say he is?" ”

It was noon, and everyone was already hungry, and it would be impossible to say that there would be no more feasting. Xiao Jiangyuan glanced at Wang Maozhong, only to see that he clenched his hands, and his face was indescribable.

She knew it was going to be like this......

To her surprise, the prince didn't come, which was a bit interesting.

Before Xiao Jiangyuan could get complacent, he heard the little guy outside the house sing: "Song Kaifu has arrived-"

All the courtiers in the audience couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but Xiao Jiangyuan's eyebrows tightened slightly.

Lu Yunniang sighed directly: "It seems that my Shu brocade is hopeless......"

After Song Jing was seated, Wang Maozhong announced the opening of the banquet. For a while, there was a staggered meeting, talking and laughing, and people kept getting up to toast Wang Maozhong and Ge Fushun, and as soon as the atmosphere became lively, he saw that Song Jing only drank one glass of wine, so he got up and said goodbye.

Wang Maozhong hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd and stopped: "Why did Song Kaifu just come and leave, but the officials were not well entertained?" I'm really sorry, the lower officials punished themselves with three cups, and I hope that Song Kaifu Haihan. ”

After Wang Maozhong finished speaking, he wanted to drink, and he didn't give Song Jing a chance to object, but Song Jing still stretched out his hand to stop him.

"How can Song be worthy of the prince calling himself a 'lower official'?" Song Jing, who has always had a straight face, said in a dry tone at this time, "Song came and went in a hurry, because he was old, drank cold wine suddenly, suddenly felt abdominal pain, and urgently needed medical treatment, so he didn't dare to stay for a long time." ”

Song Jing is much older than Wang Maozhong, but he respectfully calls Wang Maozhong "Gong", no matter how serious Song Jing is, everyone only feels sarcastic when he hears it. In addition, although Song Jing claimed to have abdominal pain and had good reasons, his back was straight, and he looked like he was old and strong, not only Wang Maozhong was speechless for a while, but everyone at the banquet was jealous of Wang Maozhong's lowly domestic slaves who could turn over over 10,000 people, and they also secretly gloated.

At this time, Ge Fushun also came out to pay for his smiling face, and Wang Maozhong also reacted, saying that there is also a good doctor at home, and he can diagnose one or two first. Song Jing didn't say much more, and was about to leave, but was blocked by Ge Fushun.

Just as there was a stalemate, Xiao Jiangyuan and Lu Yunniang walked to Song Jing's side and said, "No matter how good the good doctor in Wang Kaifu's family is, it can't compare to the palace." The sage values Song Kaifu's body the most, since Song Kaifu feels uncomfortable, it is time for the lower officials to take Song Kaifu to the palace to have a look. Wang Kaifu, General Ge, congratulations to the two on their marriage, and the official has resigned. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Wang Maozhong and Ge Fushun to speak, Xiao Jiangyuan supported Song Jing and walked towards the gate.

As soon as he left Ge Fushun's house, he heard Song Jing still say dryly: "General Xiao stops." ”

Xiao Jiangyuan immediately let go, took two steps back, and saluted: "It seems that Song Kaifu is well, so the lower officials will be relieved." ”

Song Jing glanced at Xiao Jiangyuan steadily: "No matter how good Song's body is, he will be old, and in the future, this court will be the world of the future - General Xiao is not as good as the one inside...... It's so much better. ”

Not to mention Song Jing, even Yao Chong in the past, didn't he also claim to put an end to eunuchs interfering in politics? Xiao Jiangyuan had already known and fully understood their views on themselves, so he was not displeased by this, but lowered his eyes and smiled: "But it is different after all." ”

Recalling that when Yao Chong was there, he still reserved a trace of connivance with Xiao Jiangyuan, Song Jing nodded: "I hope so, I can do it myself." ”

When Song Jing walked away, Lu Yunniang, who had been following Xiao Jiangyuan's side, exclaimed: "You and the one inside, one is a close eunuch of the Son of Heaven, and the other is a saint's favored minister, but he is not afraid of offending anyone, he does his own thing, dares to say and do, he is really iron-clad and upright." ”

Xiao Jiangyuan looked at the direction Song Jing left, and sighed: "He was like this before, even Empress Zetian couldn't do anything about him, but now that he is old, not only has he not changed at all, but he has become more and more so." Such a pure minister is very rare, so it is particularly admirable, and I don't know if there can be a second saint in this dynasty. ”

Lu Yunniang's mind quickly shifted to other things: "You say...... This is the case now, how is this bet between the saint and you calculated? ”

Xiao Jiangyuan smiled but didn't answer, let Lu Yunniang go home first, and then went straight to Xingqing Palace to report to Li Longji.

"Congratulations to everyone, it's the minister who lost."

At this time, Li Longji was beside the railing on the upper floor of Calyx Xianghui, looking at the surrounding street scene. Ben was not so sure about Song Jing, so he was apprehensive, and after listening to Xiao Jiangyuan say it so happily, he settled down. He cleared his throat with his hands behind his back, facing the refreshing autumn breeze, and put on a far-sighted appearance: "Oh? Tell me how to lose? ”

Xiao Jiangyuan simply told everything that had just happened. Although she didn't add oil and vinegar, nor did she add any description, Li Longji imagined a very detailed picture from that few words.

This...... It's really something that Song Jing can do.

Xiao Jiangyuan said again: "No matter what the result is, the bet that everyone made with the ministers at that time was to see if the people from Song Kaifu were present, so it seems that the ministers did lose." Everyone really did what they said, and the saints were right. It's just that...... I hope you will not embarrass the old minister in the future, the twisted melon is not sweet after all, I am afraid that it will be bitter, is it not worth the loss? ”

Li Longji turned around when he heard this, staring at Xiao Jiangyuan, as if smiling.

At this time, Li Longji had his back to the sunset, most of his face was hidden in the shadows, looming, Xiao Jiangyuan couldn't see his expression clearly, he could only hear him silent for a long time: "...... Everyone? ”

Li Longji snorted coldly: "The general's words have no deep meaning. ”

"I don't dare."

Li Longji walked in front of Xiao Jiangyuan, and his smile appeared little by little: "I am willing to lose the bet, your bet is three Shu brocade, but mine is not." ”

Xiao Jiangyuan only then reacted, why since the bet, she always felt that something was wrong - at that time, she was overconfident, and only said what would happen if Li Longji lost, but she didn't decide what would happen if she lost.

This ...... Isn't everything left to her family's Ah Lang?

"I don't know...... What are you going to do? ”

Seeing that Xiao Jiangyuan seemed calm, but in fact he was apprehensive, Li Longji dissipated his anger and said, "It's nothing, but I just want to meet the general's wife and see where it is sacred." It's better to pick the day than to hit the day, just tomorrow, and let her enter the palace to see her. ”

"Everyone has an appointment to meet the courtier's wife alone, maybe it's inappropriate to say it, right?"

"Then it is said that Concubine Hui wants to see - what's the matter, once the matter is related to the general's wife, the general will be in a mess, and he can't even think of such a simple solution?"

Hearing Li Longji's tone becoming more and more biased, Xiao Jiangyuan had no choice but to respond.

"What? The Emperor wants to see me? ”

That night, Xiao Jiangyuan arranged for others to be on duty at night, and he came home and told Lu Yunniang about the matter: "I don't know why he suddenly wants to see you, or why he has to see you." He asked me exactly what kind of person you are, and I thought I was clear enough, and the result was ...... I shouldn't have made this decision for you, but he has made up his mind, and I ......"

Lu Yunniang didn't blame Xiao Jiangyuan, she just felt surprised: "It's okay, he can see him if he wants." In my opinion, I was jealous of the king of a country, and it was too late for me to laugh. Our saint is not a tyrant, as long as I am honest, he will not do anything to me, and you are there. ”

"I mean, tomorrow might be a good opportunity."

"You mean...... Will my testimony come in handy? Lu Yunniang thought for a moment and suddenly said, "You have wanted to deal with that person since two years ago, in fact, it is the Wang Kaifu today, right?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan nodded: "He has a deep foundation, and he has been loved by the saint for a long time, and if he wants to uproot it immediately, he is afraid of hurting his muscles and bones, and it is impossible, so he has to flow for a long time, and slowly draw it." I thought about it for a while, your testimony is just the beginning, except for the saint and you, as well as King Xue and me, you can not be known to others, so that it will not only shake the saint's trust in him, but also make you the safest...... Why are you looking at me like that? ”

Lu Yunniang immediately came back to her senses, and touched her slightly hot face a little embarrassed: "Since I was a child, no one has ever considered me like this......"

Xiao Jiangyuan smiled lightly: "Because you are my wife." ”

Lu Yunniang immediately pushed Xiao Jiangyuan: "You don't come." ”

At this moment, the candles in the house are bright, and the silhouette reflected on the window screen from the outside of the house seems to be really a young couple flirting.

Xiao Jiangyuan pretended to be serious in his heart, and quickly became serious again: "You must remember that only when the saint asks, you can say that if the saint doesn't ask, we will wait for another opportunity, don't be too deliberate and rushed." ”

Lu Yunniang nodded and said, "I know, I have to make the emperor feel that this is not something you designed early on - of course it wasn't - the more accidental the testimony, the greater the effect on the emperor." ”

"If my wife had been born thirty years earlier, I am afraid that she would have been able to write a stroke in that era of red makeup."

Since knowing that Xiao Jiangyuan is a woman, Lu Yunniang has become more and more unable to stand her demeanor and tone of a man all day long. Her eyes rolled slightly, she got up and took out a bag from the wardrobe and put it in front of Xiao Jiangyuan: "My husband is so worried about my peace, as a wife, I naturally also care about my husband's food and clothing." ”

"For me?" Xiao Jiangyuan was sitting on the couch, and the burden was on her lap. She opened the bag layer by layer, and found that it was actually several colorful small clothes. As hot as her hands for a while, she immediately threw her burden to the other end of the couch, and in a blink of an eye, she smiled lightly.

Lu Yunniang couldn't help laughing, put the burden in front of Xiao Jiangyuan again, and sat down side by side with her: "I see that your chest corset on weekdays is plain white, which is really bland, so I made you these clothes to wear." Garnet red, autumn green, goose egg yolk, peacock blue, which one do you like best? ”

Seeing Xiao Jiangyuan staring at the colorful in the baggage and not speaking, Lu Yunniang smiled: "I see that in addition to your official uniform, you also wear fancy clothes, what carmine hibiscus color, you are also worn, why don't you even dare to touch the inner clothes?" ”
