Chapter 70: The Statue of the Nine Kings

Xu Jiao angrily went up to sit on the circle chair, and folded her legs into a ball, ignoring no one.

Zhao Yin wrote and painted for a while, and when he saw that she was still motionless over there, he persuaded softly: "I did have to joke with you before, he said that he would help me suppress bandits in exchange for silver taels for the people, not that he didn't value you." ”

After hearing this, Xu Jiao turned her head and snorted: "Liar, isn't it his share to suppress bandits?" And help you! ”

Zhao Yin said: "You're right, it's really nothing for your father to suppress bandits, the emperor said before he set off, the bandits in Guangwu Mountain will be handled by this king, and he just needs to be his sesame official with peace of mind." ”

Xu Jiao said: "Why? ”

Zhao Yin: "Because your father has already folded seven county orders in this place before, and no one in the court is willing to take over, your father has the courage to volunteer to come, and the emperor naturally wants to give him some benefits." ”

Xu Jiao: "Didn't the emperor think about suppressing bandits before?" ”

"Crack. Why not? It's just that it didn't work, the first three were all soldiers, but they were wiped out in March, and the last four were civilian officials, boasting that they were smart, but they all drew soldiers from the army who could fight well with the army, but unfortunately, the longest didn't survive five months, so no one wanted to come, but even so I couldn't stand your father's boldness, and I happily took this errand to come, and the emperor in order to reward him, let the king bring the army over to deal with the bandits. If it weren't for the protection of this king, your father would probably be choked enough, so, do you understand? ”

Xu Jiao pouted: "You just have to brag, I don't know if my father was cut down when he first arrived in Wuyuan because of who didn't escort him effectively?" Hum! ”

Zhao Yin stood up and said, "Are you still unreasonable?" If you hadn't been out of that way, would I have been able to delay behind him? I was supposed to come with him. ”

Xu Jiao naturally knew how depressed she was when she couldn't go back to the modern loss, so she stopped answering.

Zhao Yin stepped forward and said, "After tossing for a long time, aren't you hungry?" ”

Xu Jiao realized that it was almost noon, and she had been running for a long time, and she was indeed a little tired.

She got up and walked out, and Zhao Yin asked, "Why are you going?" ”

Xu Jiao said: "Looking for something to eat." ”

Zhao Yin followed out the door, and met Dong'er catching up from the yamen.

I saw Dong'er panting and giving Zhao Yin a salute, so she went up and pulled Xu Jiao: "Miss, can you stop running?" I'm going to die of exhaustion if I go on like this. ”

Xu Jiao looked at her: "Won't you be tired if you don't follow me?" ”

Dong'er said: "Guarding Miss is my business, isn't it useless if I don't follow you?" ”

Xu Jiao nodded: "You are quite useless." ”

Dong'er wanted to cry without tears: "Miss, I'm injured." ”

Xu Jiao hurriedly turned around: "Where is it hurt?" Did you run and fall with my pony, and they all told you to stay in the yamen! ”

Dong'er held her mouth and pulled her finger to her heart: "Here." ”

Xu Jiao withdrew her hand and slapped her on the shoulder: "You actually learned to entertain me!" Dong'er pulled her bitterly and didn't let go, and dragged her sleeves until she reached the kitchen: "Miss, do you want to cook again?" ”

Zhao Yin asked behind him, "Does she cook often?" ”

Dong'er shook her head: "There is no cook there for the master, and the young lady cooked for the master yesterday." ”

Zhao Yin frowned: "Your master is really useless!" ”

Xu Jiao turned her head and glared at him and said, "I'm willing to cook for my father, you can't eat it if you want to!" ”

Zhao Yin didn't care about her, and shouted to the kitchen: "Zhao Houde." ”

I saw a person standing at the door of the kitchen, not tall, a face white and round, smiling before speaking, the two pears are cute, but there is a little cute feeling.

Zhao Houde saluted Zhao Yin and Xu Jiao: "Lord Wang, Niangniang, why did you come to this smoky place, just give an order." ”

"Your mother is hungry, do you have anything to eat?" Zhao Yin asked.

Zhao Houde nodded: "Yes, yes, the freshly made is still hot, and I was about to pass the meal to the prince and Niangniang, but I didn't want you to come over." ”

Xu Jiao strode into the kitchen and sat down next to the small table where the dishes were placed: "Bring it up." ”

Zhao Houde hurriedly cleaned up the dishes on the small table, wiped them with his sleeves, and then brought the freshly prepared dishes from the stove.

Zhao Yin also sat down beside her, and when the dishes were served, he naturally handed the chopsticks to Xu Jiao: "Eat." ”

Xu Jiao didn't stretch out her hand and asked, "Do you want to eat here too?" ”

"Why not? I'm hungry too. Zhao Yin replied while sending the chopsticks three points in front of her.

Xu Jiao took the chopsticks and stopped talking.

Xu Jiao ate this meal quickly, and she didn't look at Zhao Yin at the dinner table.

However, Xu Jiao just stood up and prepared to leave.

"Stop." Zhao Yin's voice was low, not angry and arrogant.

"What?" Xu Jiao frowned.

"I haven't finished eating, how can you get off the table and sit down."

Xu Jiao frowned again, this scene seemed familiar.

Yes, when I first arrived at the Nine Kings' Mansion, I ate at the same table with him, and that time I was angry, and I put the dishes and chopsticks first.

It turns out that you can't get off the table in advance when you eat with the Nine Kings.

Xu Jiao sat back at the table: "Lord Wang, do you want to discuss something with you?" ”

"What's the matter?"

"Can you treat me as an ordinary girl in the future, we can eat without a table and sleep together, anyway, few people here know the inside story."

Zhao Yin shook his head: "No, you can't tell people the truth, it will damage your reputation." ”

Xu Jiao propped her chin and said, "It's okay, I'm not afraid, besides, won't you use the concubine to get rid of me in two years?" ”

Zhao Yin looked at her and said seriously: "So, you can't stay too far away from me, in order not to let you be affected, the concubine has nothing to do after two years is just an excuse to divorce you, and at the same time, it should be spread that this king suffers from a hidden illness and cannot inherit the incense." ”

Xu Jiao's eyes were full of doubts: "What do you mean?" ”

"That is to say, although I divorced you on this reason two years later, at the same time, I will also let people say that I am sick and cannot have children, because there are still no children in my house at that time." Zhao Yin put down the dishes and chopsticks and said.

Xu Jiao shook her head: "No, there are still a few Xiang'er and them in the house, the prince ended the matter here earlier, maybe the house will be able to add Ding next year, not to mention that there is a new lady Han Yan'er in the house, I have observed, that girl has big breasts and round buttocks, she will not disappoint you!" ”

The mouthwash tea that Zhao Yin just drank vomited very loudly, and it felt like it was directly squirted out!

"Han Yan'er? When did she become my new lady? Zhao Yin asked.

Xu Jiao learned Zhao Yuan's rhetoric: "The emperor said, 'Now the imperial aunt is still young, and my royal heirs are thin, in order to extend the royal bloodline, it is a little difficult to rely on me alone, so I plan to point out another family matter to the imperial uncle. 'Listen, is it possible that you still want to resist the decree?' ”

Zhao Yin stood up and walked out: "If I don't touch her, ten Han Yan'er will be useless." ”

Xu Jiao seemed to hear something from these words, but she didn't seem to hear anything, and said behind him: "Even if you don't like Han Yan'er, that Mei'er is always fine, you spent a lot of money to marry it." ”

Zhao Yin suddenly stood still, and Xu Jiao, who was also following quite closely, didn't have time to retract, and hit him straight in the back, the tip of his nose touched his strong back, and tears of pain came out.

was about to complain when Zhao Yin asked, "How do you know about this?" ”

Xu Jiao rubbed the tip of her nose: "Who in the capital doesn't know?" The Nine Princes took pity on the fragrance and cherished the jade, and married a girl like a flower and jade with a bride price of three hundred and sixty loads! ”

Zhao Yin turned his head to look at her and corrected: "I obviously used four hundred and eighty quintals, who told you about three hundred and sixty quintals?" ”

Xu Jiao opened her eyes in surprise: "Four hundred and eight? Are you so rich? Then my father borrowed money from you, and you are so reluctant? ”

Zhao Yin turned around and continued: "He borrowed money from the treasury, and I used my own money to marry my relatives, why?" ”

Xu Jiao waved her small fist vigorously at his back, but Zhao Yin just turned around: "What are you doing?" ”

Xu Jiao shook her arm: "Active, my hand is a little stiff." Then he said: "You exchange so much money for a beautiful woman, can't she give birth to a child for you?" ”

Zhao Yin said again, Xu Jiao didn't hear it too clearly, it seemed that 'she wasn't qualified enough' or something, but Xu Jiao asked again, but he didn't speak.

Xu Jiao followed him all the way to the door of the study.

Zhao Yin looked back at her: "What are you doing here?" ”

Xu Jiao simply pushed the door in one step ahead of him: "Practice calligraphy." My dad told me to write when I was fine. ”

Zhao Yin hooked the corners of his lips: "I think it's best for you to recognize words first." ”

Xu Jiao tilted her head and stepped forward, took out two pieces of rice paper and spread them on the bookcase: "I'll write!" ”

Zhao Yin stepped forward and took out a scroll from the porcelain vase next to the bookcase: "Okay, you concentrate on writing here, and I'll go to the side to do things." ”

Xu Jiao nodded: "Go ahead." ”

Zhao Yin took the scroll and sat on the low couch two meters away from her, spread the scroll on the small table, and slowly sketched it with a fine brush.

Xu Jiao wrote two big characters, felt that his wrist was a little stiff, threw down the pen and rubbed it for a while, raised his eyes and saw Zhao Yin with his head down, his black hair hanging down on the side of his face, the jade crown on his head was high, and an ivory-colored brocade robe lined his figure just right.

Xu Jiao quickly shook off a piece of clean rice paper, flattened it, put it on the ruler, took out a fine brush, and brushed and painted at him.

Zhao Yin didn't notice it at all, and still lowered his head and circled the scroll.

Xu Jiao's hands were fast, and the appearance was outlined in half a pillar of incense, and then, she began to carefully fill in the corners of his eyes, eyebrows, slightly pursed lips, and the looming earlobes hidden behind the ink hair......

I don't know how long it took, Xu Jiao finally finished painting, and after careful inspection, she found that it was actually a near-perfect painting.

She carefully blew the undried ink on it until the whole picture looked dry and natural, then folded it aside and pressed it with a ruler.

Seeing that Zhao Yin hadn't done it yet, Xu Jiao moved her body in the direction of the back of the chair, and her calves fell outside the chair and shook her way.

After waiting for a long time, Xu Jiao felt that her eyelids were fighting, and in order to stop this violence, she simply fell asleep on the table.
