Chapter 383: King Rui's Thoughts

After that, a group of people ate lively, Xu Saburo also changed his usual face, with a soft smile on his face, and even Xiaoshi gradually stopped feeling restrained, listening to everyone talking, did he laugh out loud.

Gongzi Wenyuan, who originally pursued silent food, unknowingly, began to be infected and deviated by Cheng Xi's relaxed atmosphere when they were eating, and gradually stopped caring whether they were eating or not, and talked and laughed.

Moreover, Gongzi Wenyuan is a person who is very knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and can speak well, and often makes everyone laugh.

Of course, he is even more considerate to Ruyu on the side, and often provokes Cheng Xi's ridicule and ridicule, but Gongzi Wenyuan doesn't care what Cheng Xi says, he has always been able to remain calm with a warm smile, in Cheng Xi's words, he is thick-skinned enough.

And Ruyu, who was originally ridiculed by Cheng Xi and hiding, seemed to be teased by Cheng Xi a lot, and she became skinny, at most, her face was slightly red and a little shy, and she would refute two sentences if she was really dissatisfied.

This New Year has the custom of keeping the New Year, and when the meal is over, it is almost not early, and the group will sit around the charcoal fire and chat and talk, thinking about the Daji that he talked about with Wenyuan Gongzi before, Cheng Xi became interested, and told the story to everyone.

Everyone listened with relish, except for the hundred-year-old who fell asleep in Xu Sanlang's arms while listening, the others were not sleepy at all, and were completely attracted by the story told by Cheng Xi.

Such an unheard of such a wonderful story, others don't understand it very well, they just think that Mrs. is very knowledgeable, and she has actually read such a wonderful book, Xu Saburo has heard a lot of stories like this, and it is not strange that only Wen Yuan Gongzi thinks it is incredible, such a poem, and now such a story, looking at Cheng Xi's eyes are shining, I really want to know what incredible things are still in her head.

In this way, time seems to pass quickly, and it seems that it is not long before the sound of fireworks and firecrackers sounded outside, indicating that the old year has passed like this, and they are welcoming the new year.

It's a pity that they didn't prepare fireworks here, and when they went out to see Cheng Xi, they hated the cold outside, and it was almost the same as the New Year, Cheng Xi yawned, and then said, "Happy New Year, everyone, I wish you all good health in the new year, peace and security, and rich resources, and give you red envelopes tomorrow." ”

Everyone smiled and blessed each other, and after seeing that it was almost there, Cheng Xi spoke again, "It's not too early, it's almost the same age, let's go back to sleep." ”

Gongzi Wen Yuan said loudly, "It's still early, it's not even dawn." ”

In fact, he still wanted to continue to listen to Cheng Xi's story, and the others nodded in agreement, Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi's sleepy appearance, but he was reluctant to let Cheng Xi continue to stay up all night, so he stood up first and said, "It's almost, let's go back and rest early, there will be something tomorrow." ”

While speaking, Xu Sanlang looked at Aunt Qin on the side, Aunt Qin hurriedly took the hundred-year-old in Xu Sanlang's hand, and said, "The slave maid took the hundred-year-old back to rest first." ”

Xiao Shi got up, followed by Ah Wu, and Gongzi Wen Yuan saw that everyone was ready to go back to sleep, so he sighed, pulled Ruyu on the side to get up, and said, "Ruyu, let's go back and rest." ”

After that, he got up and took Ruyu away, and soon there were people from the courtyard who were waiting for him, Cheng Xi waved his hand and asked them all to go back to rest, they don't need to serve today, and then they followed Xu Saburo to wash up and rest by himself.

Cheng Xi felt that he hadn't slept for long, and he was woken up, and then Aunt Qin told them that someone had been sent over from the main hall, asking them to go to the main hall, and then prepare to go to the elders everywhere to pay New Year's greetings.

Originally, he slept late last night, Cheng Xi really wanted to continue to sleep in bed, but now that he was in Ruiwang's Mansion, he had to get up, clean up and pull Xu Sanlang, who was not very happy, to the main hall.

Since they are temporarily in this Rui Wangfu, they must abide by the rules of this Rui Wangfu.

On the way over, Cheng Xi pulled Xu Saburo and whispered, "Since we agreed to come to this Rui Wangfu, we have acquiesced in the relationship with Rui Wangfu, don't take Qiao too much, people are the identity of the prince and princess, even if we are used to it, we have to have a degree, I know that you don't want to call them the same as Ge Shu, the father and the princess, this is also good, at least Ge Shu will not guard against you taking his position as the son of the world, but we still have to have the number of courtesies we should have, but we can't lose the face of King Rui too much, This is what people who have been in high positions for a long time value the most. ”

Xu Sanlang listened to Cheng Xi's tirade, but it was very reasonable, he couldn't make anything happen because of his temporary discomfort, he still wanted to live a free and carefree life with Xi'er in the future, if King Rui's ambition could really be achieved in the future, it would also be a reliance on them.

Cheng Xi looked at Xu Saburo and nodded, only then was he a little relieved.

The two of them passed the main hall, King Rui and King Rui were already sitting in the first place, and Ge Shu and Zhao Yu had already knelt in front of King Rui and King Rui to kowtow to the New Year.

At the door, Cheng Xi used you to pull Xu Sanlang's sleeve, the two of them already had a tacit understanding, Cheng Xi looked at him and moved, and Xu Sanlang knew what Cheng Xi meant.

Thinking of what Cheng Xi had just said to him, Xu Sanlang hesitated slightly, and finally walked behind Ge Shu and Zhao Yu, waiting for the two to pay a New Year's greeting to Princess Rui, took the red envelope handed to them by Princess Rui and stood up, Xu Sanlang followed Cheng Xi over and knelt down on the cushion in front of Princess Rui.

Xu Saburo's actions like this, the happiest thing is Princess Rui, King Rui still has such a majestic expression on his face, but he can't see joy and anger.

When Xu Sanlang Cheng Xi gave them New Year's greetings, they heard that the two of them were still called the prince and the princess, and Princess Rui still flashed a trace of disappointment on her face, and then quickly regained her smile, handed them the red envelope in her hand, and asked them to quickly get up and take their seats.

After taking a seat, Ge Shu opened his mouth and said to Xu Sanlang Cheng Xi, "Big brother and sister-in-law, wait a minute, and go with me to pay New Year's greetings to some respected elders in Jiangnan." ”

I didn't want Xu Saburo to open his mouth and said, "The prince can go over, and I don't have to go." ”

Seeing Xu Sanlang's reaction, Ge Shu frowned slightly and retorted loudly, "Big brother ......"

Before he could say anything to refute, he heard the first King Rui speak, "Since this is the case, then Geshu you go, Zihao can give our second elder a New Year's greeting." ”

Ge Shu turned his head to look at King Rui, and when he saw King Rui looking at him with a slightly warning look, he snorted coldly, but he still closed his mouth in the end, thinking in his heart, today is the New Year, for the sake of his mother. He won't talk back to his father, who was always straight-faced.

Princess Rui looked at the good atmosphere and was a little unhappy because of the New Year's greetings, so she hurriedly stood up and said, "It's all here, let's hurry over and have breakfast." ”

The topic of New Year's greetings came to an end, everyone went over to the dinner table to have breakfast together, and when they were at the table, Ge Shu didn't see Gongzi Wenyuan, so he asked the subordinates on the side, "Why didn't you invite Gongzi Wenyuan over?" ”

Without waiting for the next person to reply, he saw King Rui glance at Xu Sanlang and answered, "Gongzi Wenyuan slept last night, and he hasn't gotten up yet, this king has already arranged for someone to wait, prepare breakfast, eat." ”

Ge Shu muttered, "Didn't you leave early last night?" How can you go to bed late? ”

King Rui glanced at Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang both saw it, and they didn't know what it meant, and of course they wouldn't answer Ge Shu's question.

I don't want Ge Shu to suddenly ask again, "Why didn't you come at the age of 100?" ”

Cheng Xi had to speak this time, and responded, "The child is sleepy, and he didn't get up." ”

King Rui's majestic voice said again, "Alright, eat." ”

Then everyone didn't speak again, and continued to eat, but today there was something wrong with King Rui, not like yesterday at noon, his expression was always serious, and even Ge Shu, who had always liked to challenge the authority of King Rui, also ate quietly and did not speak again.

After eating, King Rui greeted Geshu, remembered to go out to pay New Year's greetings, and went back to rest, Princess Rui thought that Xu Sanlang Cheng Xi didn't have to go out to pay New Year's greetings, and was about to beckon the two of them to stay for a while to go to the martial arts arena with him to listen to the play, but he didn't want this King Rui to find an excuse to call Princess Rui away.

Xu Sanlang and Cheng Xi were quite happy to go back to rest, they didn't wake up in the first place, they were very sleepy, but they didn't want to go out to worship any year, and they didn't want to listen to any plays.

When he went back to the courtyard, Cheng Xi went back to bed, planning to continue to sleep in the cage, Xu Sanlang sat on the side and accompanied Cheng Xi, took a book and looked at it.

When he was really lying on the bed, Cheng Xi couldn't sleep a little, opened his eyes and looked at Xu Sanlang not far away, and asked, "Do you think we have offended King Rui by something?" Why do I think King Rui has some opinions about us this morning? Is it because we refused to follow Geshu and them to pay New Year's greetings? ”

Xu Sanlang put down the book in his hand, looked at Cheng Xi, who was lying prone on the bed, supporting his head with his hands and looking at him with a puzzled expression, and answered in a low voice, "No, I'm afraid that at the New Year's banquet yesterday, the words of those people still let King Rui listen to his ears, and the position of the son of the world, he belongs to Geshu after all." ”

Cheng Xi pursed his lips, "King Rui's heart is really biased, but you don't have the heart to snatch the position of the son of this world, yesterday's banquet called himself a grass man to clear the relationship, how can he not be happy with you?" ”

Xu Sanlang continued to explain for Cheng Xi, "Do you still remember when King Rui talked about Wenyuan's son, he looked at me with a slightly meaningful look? ”

Cheng Xi nodded, and then suddenly clapped his hands and said, "I know." ”

Xu Sanlang hurriedly put his hand to his lips and made a silent movement, then lowered his voice and said, "Be quiet, how do you think that the matter of Prince Wen Yuan on our side last night could reach King Rui's ears so quickly?" ”

Cheng Xi is not stupid, Xu Sanlang doesn't name her, she also understands, this can only show that among those maids, King Rui specially planted their eyes to monitor them.
