Chapter XXVII. Persecution

Zhang Qi was stunned by the cautious and serious warning of this little guy.

She was about to reply when a crisp voice came, "Xiao Lu, why are you here?" Where's your husband? "A fat woman came this way. As she walked, she looked at Zhang Qi with her eyes.

The little girl Xiao Lu frowned and replied, "This sister-in-law is lost and is begging me to take her out." He pointed to the east and said to Zhang Qi, "Go out along that path, pass a garden and turn right." ”

"Thank you."

Zhang Qi answered, and when he saw Xiao Lu walking towards the woman, he lowered his head and walked in the direction he pointed.

At that time, most of the envoys had already arrived, Xiao Yin and sheng music in the house, Huqin and pipa played in unison, and the aroma of wine mixed with fat powder fragrance was scattered and fluttering.

When Zhang Qi arrived, Zhang Jin and the others were still scattered in the garden, and the sisters-in-law from various prefectures gathered together and were talking in a low voice. In the garden in the next half of the room, there are a group of young gentlemen, some of them read their poems aloud, some gather in groups to drink and talk about literature, and more of them are frequently looking at the sisters-in-law.

Zhang Qi looked and saw that on the left, there were several young Lang Jun in foreign costumes sitting together, but except for the difference in dress, everything else was no different from the local young Lang Jun in Jiankang, and it seemed that they were also here to see each other.

In this garden in early spring, the flowers have not bloomed, and the blades of grass have not turned into thick green, but the sister-in-law and the gentlemen, one by one, are dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the fat white blush is really replacing the spring light, which looks beautiful.

Zhang Jin leaned against a few sisters-in-law of the Xiao Mansion, and happened to be smiling, like that, there was no need to go to the blockage by himself.

Zhang Qi slowed down.

In the pavilion ahead, more than a dozen elders gathered together, drinking and enjoying the performances of the concubines. At that time, as the sun was setting, countless well-dressed maids shuttled through the garden, lighting lanterns in the garden and lighting fires at the same time to drive away the chill of early spring.

As soon as he saw those concubines, Zhang Qi subconsciously lowered his head and hurriedly walked along another path in the direction of the sisters-in-law of the Zhang Mansion.

At this moment, a clear voice came, directly suppressing the noise of the garden-"King Guangling of Qi has arrived-"

As soon as this cry came out, all the voices were a pause, brush, brush, and all eyes were in the direction of the door.

In the indescribable silence, a young man in a black hat came to give alms, surrounded by two black-clothed guards. The sky was just dark, and the young man stepped on the night fog, as if he was a man in the fog.

In the unspeakable silence of all sides, several masters of the Xiao Mansion, the two princes of the Chen Guohuang clan, and several Jiankang magnates walked towards them at the same time.

At the forefront was a fat and tall magnate about thirty-two or thirteen years old, supported by two beautiful young men. He stared at King Guangling, and said in a voice that was crushed by his throat because of obesity: "King Guangling is so hard to please!" All the monarchs said that in addition to the fact that in front of His Majesty, the King of Guangling will show his true face, and the King of Guangling must have covered up in other places. Xiao didn't believe it, so he made a bet with Zhujun, but he didn't expect that King Guangling was coming, but he still wore this Laoshizi. ”

He slowly stopped, stared sideways at King Guangling, and said word by word: "It's all here for the banquet, is King Guangling still unwilling to give Xiao a certain face?" ”

As soon as the voice fell, laughter rang out, and all the magnates stood behind the fat man and looked at the young man in the hat to see how he answered.

Standing in a corner, Zhang Qi heard a few low-pitched voices coming, "This Xiao Ce is so bold that he even wants to fight the idea of the envoy of the Qi State." ”

This fat man is Xiao Ce? Xiao Ce, Zhang Qi has heard of it. The four overseas Chinese surnames across the river, Wang Xie and Yuan Xiao, the four families, are first-class and noble. But it's just a door.

For decades, the four highest families have never produced a child who is talented in governing the world. There are many troubled times, although being an official is a "secular business", and governing the world is a "mediocre business". But a family can't get a decent child for decades, even if they don't admit it, the decline is inevitable.

For example, the Wang Xie family, although they claim to be top families, although they are still unattainable in marriage and communication, it is an indisputable fact that they have declined.

In this case, Xiao Ce, a child of the family, is the only one who can handle it and do something in the court. When there was no one to use the sons of the family, Xiao Ce was given a heavy responsibility, and the royal family also won over the major families by reusing him and respecting him.

Therefore, this Xiao Ce is inevitably arrogant in many cases.

The young man in black stood quietly in the night breeze.

Through the flickering light of the lantern, his gaze quietly swept over the crowd.

Just when everyone thought that he would not speak, the young man's voice with a little coldness slowly sounded in his elegant and elegant voice, "Xiao Junsheng invited Changgong to come...... Changgong is here. As for the rest, doesn't Xiao Jun feel that he has asked too much? ”

The young man's voice is very beautiful, very beautiful, revealing a bit of indescribable magnetism.

As soon as he said this, there was a loud buzz everywhere. The sisters-in-law squeezed forward excitedly, and the whispers drifted into Zhang Qi's ears from time to time, "King Guangling's voice is so good. "yes, yes." "Listening to his voice and thinking about his people, he must be extremely handsome."

In the midst of joy, Xiao Ce smiled.

Because of dissatisfaction, his laughter was a little shrivelled, "King Guangling is really worthy of his name!" It's so arrogant and good-looking! Speaking of this mockingly, Xiao Ce waved his right hand and called, "Come out!" ”

As soon as his right hand fell, the sound of sheng music stopped, and more than a dozen concubines who were singing or dancing just now twisted their waists and walked forward. After a while, they came to the side.

Xiao Ce pointed to the concubines beside him, his fat face was so smiling that he couldn't see his eyebrows, he stared at King Guangling, and said slowly: "My concubines, all of them are stunning beauties, not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also have wonderful points in the way of the boudoir, which is far from being comparable to the beauties of the Northland...... When they learned the name of King Guangling, they fell in love and begged me to see the prince. ”

After a pause, he said with a smile: "If King Guangling can take off your hat and let Xiao Mou see his true face, how about giving these concubines to King Guangling?" ”

Where is this to send a beauty?

On the way, with so many powerful people blocking him, he didn't even wait for him to enter the table, and his tone was half yin and half yang - it was clear that the hat had to be taken off, and if he didn't take it off, he had to take it off! is clearly giving the other party a dismount, accept it, and then you have to act according to his Xiao Ce's steps. If you don't accept it, this Qi envoy who came from afar can only flee in the wilderness, his prestige will be destroyed, and he will lose face in his country, not to mention, maybe he will be punished by the monarch of Qi who didn't want to see him!

When Xiao Ce's words landed, the teenagers laughed loudly. This giggle is so pleasant, so impatient—seriously, since this King of Guangling arrived in Jiankang, countless families have wanted to cut his face!
