Chapter 297 Ambition
"Enough!" After listening to Dugu Yu's words, Duanmu Lei, who was a little angry, couldn't help but knock on the table, which frightened everyone, but saw him take a sip of wine, and said with disdain:
"I think when my mother was still the queen, I really should have killed that Dugu Yi earlier, and I wouldn't have let him sit on the throne as happily as he is now. When the time comes for this king to kill him and become the emperor, all the women will belong to this king! ”
After that, Duanmu Lei glanced at the people present one by one, and said to them: "You all have to help this king, and when this king and I sit on the throne, I will eat spicy food, big brother." ”
"It's natural, big brother." Chu Weifeng held his wine glass, still smiling and said to Duanmu Lei: "Big brother, third brother, I have always been a beauty and not a good country, and when the time comes, the eldest brother will become the king, so I have to give the third brother a chance so that the third brother can find a confidant." ”
"Okay, the eldest brother agrees to your request with the third brother." Duanmu Lei listened to it, and replied to him with a smile, but asked him puzzled: "It's just that the eldest brother is a little puzzled, saying that the third brother is talented and good-looking, but he refuses so many beauties outside the door, what kind of woman do you want?" ”
Chu Weifeng listened, but still smiled and replied to him: "The eldest brother doesn't understand, the third brother I like the kind of woman who can make the third brother open his heart, and those vulgar fans, the third brother really doesn't want to take a second look." ”
"Hahahaha, that's the case, the eldest brother will fulfill you when the time comes."
Hearing Duanmu Lei's words, Chu Weifeng smiled with satisfaction, suddenly thought about it, and asked Duanmu Lei again: "The eldest brother doesn't seem to have told us yet, what is the matter with calling us over today, the third brother thinks, it should not be as simple as setting up a banquet to taste delicious food and enjoy singing and dancing." ”
"I really let the third brother guess correctly." Duanmu Lei put down his wine glass, and said to everyone seriously: "Today's eldest brother, I invited all the royal brothers to come over, one is naturally a gathering of our brothers, and the other is also the most important, you may also know that once this month passes, it will be Dulone's birthday soon." ”
Hearing this, Chu Weifeng couldn't help but fall into a burst of thought. The Duan Mu Lei took a sip of wine, and continued: "What the eldest brother means is that since he is going to hold a banquet in the palace, those of us who are brothers, even if we don't pull him down from the throne, we must give him a big gift......
Duanmulei lowered his voice and explained his strategy to everyone in detail, everyone sighed for a while, and no one objected, and Duanmulei's plan was decided.
Since Wu Xiaoyue knew An Wenzhao's identity, she almost took the time to squat outside the gate of Anfu from time to time.
After several repeated waits at different times, Wu Xiaoyue finally waited for An Wenzhao who came out of the house this time.
From a distance, she could recognize An Wenzhao's appearance. His face, his posture, and the appearance of him carrying a long sword on his back all made Wu Xiaoyue's heart beat more than once.
Looking at An Wenzhao's figure walking on the road, Wu Xiaoyue knew in her heart that from the first time she saw this young man on Jingcheng East Street, her heart had been moved, and she had begun to like him.
When An Wenzhao walked to a very close distance from him, Wu Xiaoyue suddenly jumped in front of him and smiled triumphantly at An Wenzhao.
"How are you?" An Wenzhao, who was walking on the road with a focused expression, was taken off guard: "Why are you here?" How did you find this place? ”
After reacting for a while, An Wenzhao looked at the direction where Wu Xiaoyue came out, and said to her with some displeasure: "You actually follow me!" ”
Wu Xiaoyue didn't care, but still stuck out her tongue at him proudly.
"How dare you go out?" An Wenzhao stopped a little helplessly, pulled Wu Xiaoyue aside, and said to her reproachfully: "Didn't I tell you not to come out and run around?" Aren't you afraid that Sun Bawang will come to you? ”
"I'm not afraid." Wu Xiaoyue still shook her head nonchalantly, and said to An Wenzhao happily: "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Hey, are you concerned about me? Hehe, then I'm even more afraid, with you to protect me......" After saying that, Wu Xiaoyue couldn't help but turn her head shyly. 、
"...... you" An Wenzhao pointed at Wu Xiaoyue's nose helplessly, but he didn't know how to say her: "Then the last time I was on Dongdajie, which coward cried and lost his face when he was caught by others?" ”
While laughing at Wu Xiaoyue, he saw an old woman passing by the road who was rushing to the market with a vegetable basket, Duguyi suddenly realized that the time was not early, and hurriedly left Wu Xiaoyue to leave: "I won't talk nonsense with you, I still have important things to do." ”
Wu Xiaoyue was willing to give up, she finally caught An Wenzhao, and this time she still followed him all the way.
Wu Xiaoyue followed An Wenzhao to a small family in the prosperous area of the capital.
The gate of Pu Qin Liusu, the small courtyard wall, this is the place where An Wenzhao comes to learn martial arts every day.
Pushing open the somewhat old door, with a creaking sound, Wu Xiaoyue followed An Wenzhao into the small courtyard.
An old man with gray hair was sweeping the ground in the courtyard with a big broom, and as soon as An Wenzhao entered, he immediately saluted the old man and called "Master".
"Master?" Wu Xiaoyue, who had been silent, suddenly muttered to herself curiously.
"Wen Zhao, you are late than usual and have half a burnt incense, didn't you usually teach you what punctuality is?"
"Master, the apprentice knows that he is wrong, and the apprentice promises that there will be no next time." An Wenzhao saluted him again and apologized.
"Okay, since you're already late, don't waste any more time, let's squat here for a stick of incense." The old man stroked his beard and said to An Wenzhao.
"A stick of incense! You're crazy, old man, it's going to be exhausting! ”
"Don't be rude!" Seeing that Wu Xiaoyue was disrespectful to her master, An Wenzhao hurriedly scolded her: "Xiaoyue, this is my master, surnamed Ye, you must not be disrespectful to him." ”
Wu Xiaoyue looked dazed, she glanced at the old man, and then at An Wenzhao, not knowing what to say.
"Wen Zhao, squat quickly, otherwise add two sticks of incense." Hearing this, An Wenzhao immediately took the posture of squatting and stepping.
The old man glanced at Wu Xiaoyue, and then stroked his beard and said to Wu Xiaoyue: "Female doll, what is your name, why do you want to follow me here." ”
Wu Xiaoyue glanced at the old man with some disdain, pouted his head and replied to him: "Master Ye, listen up, my name is Wu Xiaoyue, follow him, I am happy!" ”
"Wu Xiaoyue, how can the girl's family be so uneducated, but since you have come to me, you can't be idle." While speaking, the old man took the big broom beside him, and with his best skills, he threw the broom in front of Wu Xiaoyue: "Sweep the floor for me here." ”
Wu Xiaoyue immediately covered her nose with one hand, dusted off the floating dust with her other hand, and said to the old man unhappily: "Why let me sweep it!" I don't! ”
"No, you can, get out of here, get out." As he spoke, the old man pointed in the direction of the gate.
Wu Xiaoyue was helpless, she glanced at An Wenzhao, and had to pick up the broom: "Hmph, sweep it!" What's the big deal. ”
"Don't worry about sweeping the floor, it just so happens that you are here today, remember to come over and wash the vegetables after sweeping, and make today's lunch." With a few words, the old man walked into the house.
Wu Xiaoyue, who was holding a broom, was full of unhappiness, stomped his feet twice and swept up on the ground indiscriminately, and kicked up a burst of dust, choking An Wenzhao, who was squatting on the horse, coughed.
"My Miss Wu, I beg you, An Wenzhao, you should go home quickly, don't make a mess here."
Wu Xiaoyue ignored it, still swept around, and replied to him in a flicker: "I don't, go back now, won't my land be swept in vain." You, the master, are really, an old man, who has to bully me, a little girl. I really don't understand, what's the point of you coming here to learn martial arts. ”
"Ouch......" An Wenzhao couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose with his hand, and said to her: "Don't sweep it, look at this ash for yourself, I will be choked to death by this ash if I am not tired to death today." ”
Seeing An Wenzhao's description, Wu Xiaoyue couldn't help but be happy, he came to An Wenzhao's side, and said to him with a smile: "Do you want my aunt and grandmother to be obedient?" Then you'll have to buy me another rock sugar gourd. ”
"Grandma, don't say one, even if it's ten, I'll buy it for you when I go back, you should stop and go home." Either I'll give you all the money, you can buy it yourself, sell as much as you want, and buy the old man's burden home. An Wenzhao hurriedly persuaded her.
"Alright, alright." Wu Xiaoyue was amused again, she put down the broom in her hand, and said happily to An Wenzhao: "Then you promise to buy me ten, and you will be sure." ”
"Do it, do it, the husband will say it and never regret it. Hurry home. ”
"I'm not going back." Wu Xiaoyue replied to her.
"You...... Didn't you just say yes? An Wenzhao looked dazed.
"Did I say I'll go back now, of course I'm waiting for you to get better and go together, Master An." After that, Wu Xiaoyue patted An Wenzhao's shoulder with a smile.
An Wenzhao was helpless, still squatting on his horse.
In this way, at the end of the day, An Wenzhao squatted for a lot of time on the horse, and practiced martial arts for nearly a day under the guidance of Master Ye, and he was really exhausted.
And Wu Xiaoyue, who followed An Wenzhao for a day, also took what she said in the morning seriously, and pulled An Wenzhao to ask him to accompany her to buy rock sugar gourds.
"Young Master An, you promised me, ten sugar gourds, one can't be missing, you can't go back." Wu Xiaoyue grabbed An Wenzhao's sleeve, pulled him and ran to the market.
An Wenzhao also went with her and bought a full ten sugar gourds for her, Wu Xiaoyue got her wish, grabbed rock sugar gourds in her hands, and ate them happily.
"Oh, it's ten roots, you have to eat them all, don't waste Young Master Ben's money." An Wenzhao teased her and said.
Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyue took a bite of the sugar gourd, looked at the rest of the hand, and said to An Wenzhao: "When I was a child, our family was much poorer than now, and if we wanted to eat such a sugar gourd, we couldn't afford it at all. ”
Seeing her like this, An Wenzhao didn't know what to say, he was a rich young master who was spoiled since he was a child, and he couldn't understand the feelings of these poor families at all.
He couldn't help but think of Qin Liusu again, he heard that Qin Liusu used to be a homeless child, not to mention the rock sugar gourd, I'm afraid she has never eaten enough, this bitter and thin little girl has also grown into a cute and optimistic Qin Liusu.
"Since I haven't eaten it before, let's take advantage of it now and eat more." An Wenzhao comforted Wu Xiaoyue and said.
Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyue looked at him, took a string of sugar gourds and handed it to An Wenzhao. The same scene reminded him of Qin Liusu again, and the inevitable heartache made him push away Wu Xiaoyue's hand holding the rock sugar gourd.
