Chapter 159: Extortion of dowry

After Chu Qingchen finished the deliberations of the early dynasty, he was invited by Chu Xin'er to the Pujia Hall for breakfast, saying that Nuoya personally cooked and made a few snacks.

Chu Qingchen saw the tiger girl waiting on the side at a glance, and couldn't help but be stunned, and vaguely guessed a little reason: "Presumably the tiger talisman is also in your hands now?" ”

Noya got up and wanted to salute, but was stopped by Chu Qingchen raising his hand, so he smiled and returned the tiger talisman to Chu Qingchen: "This girl is honest, I like it too, I stayed and served, it just so happened that there was no girl around me in the past two days." ”

Chu Qingchen shook his head helplessly and smiled: "He is telling me that if you want to put the tiger talisman in his hands, you must send you back first, right?" ”

Chu Xin'er knew that there was such a trick in it: "Second brother, you don't tell Xin'er in advance if you have such a good show, let me be in the dark, and act like a villain." ”

Chu Qingchen lifted the hem of his clothes, sat down at the table, and without summoning him, a palace mermaid immediately entered, placing a dazzling array of delicacies on the table of the Five Blessings and Eight Immortals, and quietly serving porridge.

Chu Qingchen wiped his hands with a hot handkerchief, picked up the dim sum in the blue and white dish at hand, looked at it for a moment, and then bit it down gently, and said unhurriedly: "That's because your sister Noya is a daughter who got married, and the water that was spilled is now full of Xiao Jiu, and she unites to calculate the two of us." ”

Xin'er knew that Chu Qingchen wanted to canonize Noya, so she also made fun of her, and said angrily: "Then we will detain her, if the fox wants to take it back, I will dress up the tiger girl as Sister Noya and stuff it to him again." ”

Chu Qingchen's eyes flashed, and he said approvingly: "It's a good idea, I should let Xiao Jiu marry Nuoya again, with ten miles of red makeup and unlimited scenery, and take out the pomp and circumstance of being our royal concubine." was so shabby at the beginning, and she was a concubine, so naturally she couldn't be counted. ”

"Well, I heard that he has a lot of shops in private, and he should extort a dowry fiercely." Xin'er waved the chopsticks in her hand, her eyebrows fluttered, and her eyes were full of cunning for fear that the world would not be chaotic.

The two sang and harmonized, which made Noya cry and laugh: "I feel that you have taken me into the palace with such a mind." ”

Chu Xin'er squinted her eyes and smiled maliciously: "Now that the baby is there, the bride price will be doubled, even if he is cunning, I don't believe he can steal you." From today onwards, I will guard your cash cow every step of the way. ”

Chu Qingchen looked at Noya quietly, he was waiting for her to get angry. Noya's fierceness is a legend in Da Chu, but this woman has always been like a puddle of water in front of her, indifferent like water, cool as water, gentle as water, tranquil as water, tolerant as water, only occasionally sharp. She once said that in front of him Chu Qingchen, she was thick and colorful, restrained her fists and feet, and didn't want to desecrate the elegance of his son-in-law. So, what is the real her like, is it really as rumored?

Noya still smiled lightly: "Be careful that when you get married in the future, your second brother will do the same to you, blackmailing you so fiercely that you can't get married." ”

Xin'er didn't care, and stuffed a mouthful of snacks: "My mother said that no one wants a temperament like mine in my life, even if the second brother marries more, it's useless." Besides, the second brother must be eager to drive out my hot potato, and someone can't ask for it. ”

Facing Xin'er's sharp teeth, Noya suddenly didn't know how to deal with it, and shrugged helplessly: "It seems that I can only wait for the price to sell." ”

Chu Qingchen was a little conflicted: "Then should I tell Xiao Jiu frankly that it is better to extort a bride price, or continue to hide the news of his canonization, so that he will misunderstand that it is difficult to sleep and eat?" ”

"Naturally, I hid it from him first, and then blackmailed him fiercely at that time. The fun should be seen, and the bride price should be wanted. Chu Xin'er said happily.

Noya got up, neatly put away the snacks on the table, turned around and left: "You are eating the snacks I made, and you are still calculating me with your heart, why do I feel that I suffer like this?" ”

Xin'er hurriedly salivated and snatched the snack back with a smile on her face: "Only when the bride price costs too much, that fox will really treat you as a treasure and guard it carefully." Otherwise, no one will support you, and when the time comes, what if he relapses and messes with flowers and grass everywhere? Don't forget, there is still An Ruoxi in the General's Mansion now. This time she was seriously injured in order to save the old lady, and she was reduced to the point of homelessness, what did the fox plan to do, did she still not have a letter? ”

Noah let her snatch the plate away from her hand, and her heart was a little messy. Regarding An Ruoxi's current situation, Mo said that he had never made a ruthless effort to issue an eviction order, and even she herself began to be unbearable. It is absolutely impossible for two daughters to work together as a husband, but where can a lonely woman go? I want to have a place to live.

Chu Qingchen looked at her for no reason and became a little sad, and said indifferently: "I plan to set up a female superintendent to teach all the women in the court, if An Ruoxi is interested, she can teach in it, after all, her reputation as the first talented woman in Beijing is not false." ”

Nuoya smiled gratefully, Chu Qingchen was always so understanding: "Ah Jiu is not a drag on the water, the main reason is that An Ruoxi has hurt her vitality this time, and she has to take more time." When she is fully recovered, Ah Jiu will make a decision. ”

Chu Xin'er couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and said arrogantly: "I'm so lucky, I'm a princess, if my concubine dares to have three wives and four concubines in the future, I will chop him directly." ”

"If you really don't have any shame, you can say such a thing." Noah turned to tease her.

"What is this? Compared with Sister Noya's feat of taking the lead in singing eighteen touches on the city wall, Xin'er is ashamed of herself. ”

Chu Qingchen thought that Nuoya would be so shy that her face was flushed, who would have thought that her face would not change, and she was very calm: "There is no way, at that time, Yuanbao would have this tune, and it was familiar, those soldiers' eyes lit up when they heard it, they were full of enthusiasm and momentum, I can't take them to sing Henan's lotus blossom, right?" ”

"You'll teach me how to sing in a moment." Xin'er secretly tugged at her cuffs and muttered in a low voice, afraid that Chu Qingchen would hear it.

Noya stretched out her finger and poked her: "I won't, this is still Jinniang's best." ”

Chu Qingchen only pretended not to hear, and wiped his fingertips with a handkerchief: "Gongsun Jin is leaving the capital, he wants to say goodbye to you, saying that he has something to give you." It just so happened that after I had breakfast, I announced that he would come in and explain some things, and let him wait for you in the imperial garden when he was done. ”

Noah was a little surprised: "Where is he going?" ”

He is now serving in the Ministry of Officials of the Central Committee, and in the afternoon, he followed Yan Yushi and went to Huguang on order. The three princes there have worked hard for many years, and there are still many henchmen, and he cooperated with Yan Yushi to investigate together. ”

Let Jin Niang participate in the interrogation, but it is indeed a good place, I hope he can make achievements, and it is not in vain that he has been wronged in the drunken dream building in these years. Nuoya nodded in response, Chu Qingchen got up and went back to the imperial study, he still had many court affairs to be busy.

Xin'er's eyes flickered, and as soon as Chu Qingchen left, she couldn't wait to ask, "Isn't Huguang still very dangerous?" ”

Noya shook his head: "Now that the power of the three princes has been uprooted, just as the so-called tree is falling and scattered, those people are wise to protect their lives, and they will not make any more moves." The only thing to worry about is Jin Niang, oh, no, it should be called Gongsun Jin, his soul skills are powerful, in case someone's crime is revealed, the dog jumps off the wall. ”

"Is Jin Niang's soul dementorship really good?"

Noah nodded: "Unless it is super willpower, as long as ordinary people look into his eyes and are hit, they will unconsciously tell the secret in their hearts, and they don't realize that I have been hit by his tricks twice." ”

In Xin'er's eyes, she was a god-like character, and she couldn't help that Jin Niang. Xin'er became more and more pleased: "If you learn it, won't you be invincible in the world?" No wonder the second brother takes such a fancy to him. ”

Noah didn't notice her excitement, and nodded a little unwillingly: "I also thought about learning this soul technique, but unfortunately I don't know how Baili Jiu threatens him, and he won't teach me anyway." ”

Xin'er said "oh", stopped talking, lowered her head and concentrated on drinking porridge.

Not long after Nuoya had breakfast, someone from the palace came to spread the word that Gongsun was already waiting in the Imperial Garden.

Noya was not very comfortable with the title of "Gongsun Lord" for a while, and it was Jin Niang who came back after a while, and immediately went with him.

Gongsun Jin was waiting in the pavilion of the chrysanthemum garden, between the golden hairpin phoenix and the golden chrysanthemum, he was dressed in red, standing with his back to him, and his hair was not combed, so he was casually draped over his shoulders, and rose with the autumn wind.

For a moment, the evil aura on his body made Noah think it was Baili Jiu. It's just that he stood there, Xiao Xiao was shy, unlike Baili Jiu, who was full of smug laziness.

Gongsun Jin turned around when he heard the movement behind him, looked at the corners of Noya's lips slightly hooked, and smiled evilly.

"There are more good men in the world, who are you not good at, how can you learn from that fox?" Noah was extremely disdainful.

Gongsun Jin raised his eyebrows and smiled at Noah: "Because there are more good men in the world, you don't like anyone, so you like a hundred miles and nine." ”

Noah was a little puzzled: "You can't be secretly in love with me, right?" So I tried to live like I liked. Although I did peek at you taking a shower, you don't have to suffer, and you don't need me to be responsible, right? ”

Gongsun Jin picked up a lock of hair on his shoulders and wrapped it around his fingertips, full of charm: "I just want you to see, as soon as my Gongsun Jin comes out of the rivers and lakes, should the ranking of this beautiful man in the capital be changed again?" Compared with me, who is slightly inferior to the second prince and Baili Jiu in the world? ”

Nuoya stepped forward and circled around Gongsun Jin three times, until he looked uncomfortable, like a man's back, and then raised his nose and sniffed lightly: "The smell of this body is indeed excessive, but ......"
