Chapter 30: Forced to Embark on a Thief Ship
Two round poached eggs side by side, forget it, two are not in the place, and the imaginative red beans can also be endured, the key is what the hell is that unkempt hair cabbage below? A small piece of carrot pickles hidden again ...... Carved vividly!
How to mouth? You tell me how to put my mouth down?
As soon as Baili Jiu remembered the look on his face when all his subordinates looked at him at that time, he felt a red face, and the fire was burning!
Especially standing behind him, looking at his embarrassing ingots, the fat on his stomach twitched trembling through his winter clothes at that time, and he couldn't help himself, so that Baili Jiu couldn't turn his face on the spot, find the initiator, and correct the Fa on the spot!
This woman is definitely underdone! If you don't fight for three days, it's just a matter of going to the house to expose the tiles, and you can't bear to come to challenge your authority!
This hasn't done anything to her, how can she be so brazen as to say a good face? What about reserved? What about shyness? Have you eaten them all by bubbles?
Obviously, he is a man for hundreds of miles, how do you feel that since that day, this woman has taken the initiative, she is not afraid of him at all, and she is flirting in every way, yin and yang are declining! He doesn't exert his power for hundreds of miles, is it possible that you treat me as a sick cat?
When you are busy for these few days, you will naturally have a good life.
Facing a man like Baili Jiu who has a small belly and chicken intestines, and he will repay him, Noah still has a sense of crisis in his heart. These days, she became obsessed with the art of war and strategy, and often asked Yuan Bao to go to Bailijiu's study to help find two or three related books to read and find countermeasures.
As the so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, a hundred battles will not be defeated, when she chatted with Yuanbao, she inevitably mentioned Baili Jiu.
The strangest thing about Noya is that the old general is already a handful of years, why does he have to take command of the expedition in person, and allow him to be unrestrained in the capital, spend all day drinking, and do nonsense?
Yuan Bao looked left and right at no one, and asked Noah mysteriously: "What do you think of the prince's character?" ”
Noya didn't understand why Yuan Bao asked like this, so she thought about it and said truthfully: "Although I don't have much contact with the prince, I feel that he is a little suspicious. ”
"That's it, do you think that according to the current power of Baili Mansion, once the crown prince ascends the throne, he will be able to tolerate it?"
Noah shook her head as if she didn't understand: "But does this have anything to do with Baili Jiu?" ”
"The relationship is big," Yuan Bao instantly had a sense of superiority, and said patiently: "Baili Mansion has been loyal and famous all over the world for generations. Today's saint is wise, and all the military power in the world is under the control of the Baili family, and the ninth master is accepted as a righteous son, showing the emperor's grace. But once the crown prince takes power in the future, he is suspicious by nature, and even no one around him can get his full trust, and the first step must be to reduce the military power of the Baili family. If it's good, you can also be stable in the whole future life, once you don't pay attention, the bird is hidden, I'm afraid it will be a disaster! ”
Noah's heart moved, remembering his own life experience, and asked sideways: "I heard that the prince has been purging dissidents, suppressing officials who do not obey him, and personally creating several massacres of extermination, is it true?" ”
Yuan Bao nodded: "Those are all partisan rivalries in the court, the winner is the king, and the loser is the coward, it has been like this since ancient times, there is nothing to make a fuss about." ”
Seeing that he was strict and perfunctory, Noya didn't dare to delve into it: "Do you mean that Baili Jiu is deliberately showing weakness and doesn't want to participate in any faction's disputes, so he deliberately pretends to be a weapon, and the old general in Japan just takes this excuse to hand over the power to dismiss the army?" ”
Yuan Bao pretended to be deep and said: "Actually, this is just my own guess, after all, I have been with the master for so long, and I know that he is not as unbearable as it is rumored outside, Wen Taowu is still remarkable, he must have his own plans." ”
"Then since this is the case, just pretend to be the end, why do you have to be this kind of major general, commanding the military power of the capital, and showing his edge, isn't that the same as causing trouble for yourself?"
"I know that," Yuan Bao said triumphantly, "but it's just hearsay." ”
Noah suddenly became interested: "Let's talk about it." ”
Yuan Bao cleared his throat, looked at her and smiled meaningfully: "My master and the second prince have always looked at each other unpleasantly, do you know why?" ”
Noah thought that there was something in his words, so he couldn't help but blush, coughed lightly and said, "How do I know? ”
Yuan Bao smiled "hehe": "Because this thief ship is the second prince forced the ninth master to get on." ”
"Huh?" She was a little surprised: "What's the allusion to this?" ”
"Before I came to the General's Mansion, I heard that the Ninth Master was really doing nothing every day, walking the dog with an eagle, and causing trouble everywhere. The old lady couldn't control it, she felt that he was evil, and begged for incense and worshiped the Buddha everywhere, and the chickens and dogs jumped in the general's mansion, and it was a mess.
One day, in order to set up a banquet for the newly recruited Wu Zhuangyuan, the ninth master and the second prince ate wine at the same table, and unknowingly drank a little too much. Somehow, the two got into an argument.
The second prince scolded the ninth master for not learning and wasting the country's grain and rice, and the ninth master was impatient for a while, so he was on the bar with him, saying that he still had the kung fu of a three-legged cat, and he could defend the country in the future, and do his best.
The second prince was unusual,-for-tat, ridiculing him for embroidering his fists and legs, and ruining the century-old reputation of Baili Mansion.
At that time, many people were present, and they couldn't get down on their faces, so it was useless for anyone to persuade them. In the last breath, the Ninth Master rose up and challenged the top three in the martial arts test alone, but in the blink of an eye, they all lost their armor.
The emperor Longyan Dayue, took the opportunity to test his art of war, he was half drunk at the time, knowing that he had won the second prince's plan, and it was difficult to ride a tiger, so he perfunctorily said that he had always been tired of reading, so he didn't know a little bit of the art of war strategy. Rao is like this, the emperor loves talent, and still gave him the right to take charge of the Jingzhong Protector Army on the spot, and handed over all the four barracks in the east, west, south and north to him to take charge of.
But because the ninth master doesn't know how to lead the troops to set up the formation, he naturally can't take charge alone, so he can only go out by himself. ”
Yuanbao's words are vague and do not point out directly, but Nuoya also understands that eight or nine are not far from ten, that is to say, Baili Jiu is not without this ability, people are just low-key, pretending, and are unwilling to continue to work hard for your Chu family.
The second prince Chu Qingchen is the wisest, and he should have discovered that Baili Jiu Taoguang was obscure, so he deliberately provoked him at the imperial banquet, so that he showed his skills, and was canonized by the saint on the spot, even if he regretted it, it was too late.
No wonder Baili Jiu looked at Chu Qingchen everywhere unpleasantly, it turned out that the free and easy leisure under the moon before the flowers every day ended in Chu Qingchen's hands, and she had already had old grievances, and she still thought that everything was because of herself.
When Bailijiu was very busy, the old lady's birthday was already in full swing.
Originally, the old lady meant that the old general was now halfway up, and it was still a matter of saying whether he could catch up and come back at that time, so everything was simple, and the family had a light meal.
But An Ruoxi proposed that it must be grand, not only to add blessings and longevity to the old lady, but also to celebrate the triumph of the old general.
In the end, he asked for the meaning of Baili Jiu, saying that it was not extravagant, but only invited relatives and friends who usually walked around well to come over to eat and drink, and roughly calculated that there were only twenty or thirty tables. As is customary, it is not known how many uninvited guests will arrive in front of you, so at least about 40 tables will be arranged.
Now that it has been settled, the old lady briefly explained a few things that need to be paid attention to, An Ruoxi patted her chest and made a package ticket, and everything was handed over to herself, the old lady didn't have to worry about it, and she could enjoy her happiness with peace of mind.
An Ruoxi began to prepare the banquet list in full swing, copy the invitations, burn the longevity bowl, formulate the banquet, and arrange the house.
The old lady discussed with Baili Jiu: "Why don't you take Qin Darling back?" Just take advantage of this. Besides, the New Year is coming soon, and one of her married daughters has been living in her parents' house, and after a long time, she will definitely be talked about. ”
Bailijiu didn't want to go, but he didn't want to disobey the old lady. An Ruoxi took the initiative to ask Ying again: "Why don't you let me go to Shangshu Mansion, the big deal is to accompany a smiling face, say no, and take the darling sister back?" The family is reunited, and it is not a joke for outsiders. ”
The old lady hesitated for a moment, and was generally very pleased with An Ruoxi's virtuousness, but she knew that she and Qin Darling had secretly not dealt with each other, lest she have any more selfish intentions, which would make matters worse.
Bailijiu agreed regardless of it: "Such a thankless errand, I didn't expect Ruoxi to be willing to do it yourself, if you really take care of the overall situation and have everyone's demeanor." ”
An Ruoxi was praised by Baili Jiu, and immediately went happily, promising to be as tactful as possible. Even if Shangshu Mansion was angry, he tried his best to endure it, and he must bring Qin Bao'er back to the General's Mansion together.
An Ruoxi went early in the morning, and only came back in disgrace after noon, full of frustration, saying that Qin Shangshu and Mrs. Qin had been shirking her, and left her in the living room, listening to a few talkative people sneering there.
Later, when it was almost lunch, Qin Bao'er came over to speak arrogantly, saying that if she wanted her to return to the General's Mansion, she had to agree to three conditions:
First, it is necessary to prepare five-color gifts, eight-color longevity boxes, and knock on the ground Shangshu Mansion to pick her up;
Second, it is necessary for Noah to personally come to the door to take the blame and lead the horse for her.
Thirdly, I heard that Il-Nian-tang had developed an ointment to remove scars, which was very effective, and asked Noah to take charge of healing his face.
Noya was a little strange, her ointment was indeed very useful, and the extremely small scars on her body had begun to fade gradually, and the skin on her body was delicate and tight, exuding a holy brilliance like white porcelain. The scar on the back of the bellflower is applied when the scab is formed, so the effect is more obvious. If you can use it consistently, I believe that the scar will be able to fade or even disappear.
However, how did she Qin Darling know?
