The art of water injection
No one expected that Hu Tianze, the cowardly and incompetent Third Highness of the Demon Clan in the past, would hide his strength, and under Nangong Xue's arrangement, his intelligence and martial arts were presented in front of the demons without reservation. Whether it is to build Weiwei Lixin, or to win the hearts of the people. She did it all. The plan seemed to be going very well.
"General Nangong, thank you!" "The family doesn't talk to each other, and the demon king is only in a hurry to do such an impulsive and reckless thing, don't take it to heart." "Don't dare"
Nangong Po exerted coercion, Ling Ran said, "From now on, His Royal Highness is the son-in-law of my Nangong family, I don't care what happened before, if anyone dares to bully him now, he will be disrespectful to him." I will not spare it."
The demon king couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "General Nangong, you're a bit noisy, besides, is Nangong Xue really your daughter?"
"Wang, what do you mean by this?" "Nangong Xue is not the daughter of General Nangong?
Nangong Xue, looking at her father, her face was cloudy, and she took a few steps back, I am not my father's child?
Nangong Po, grabbed the fox Tianze in the ring casually and jumped lightly in front of Nangong Xue. Hu Tianze also looked at the father and daughter in front of him with a confused expression, and indeed the two were not similar in appearance at all.
The demon king looked at the courtiers with a confused face under the stand, the noisy argument, and smiled proudly, "Quiet and quiet, today's demon queen's birthday, Lone is in a good mood, so I'll tell you a story, it's a ridiculous and funny story."
The story takes place decades ago, and the Nangong clan has always been the general of the demon clan. When it was passed to Nangong Po's father, Nangong Wentian, I don't know how many generations have passed.
But Nangong Wentian looked at his sleeping son Nangong Po, his face was full of worry, this child has been different from others since he was a child, the race of demon children is unbearable, and his nature is stubborn and difficult to discipline, but Nangong Po is silent and quiet, often sitting alone in a silent daze. I don't know what he's thinking.
At that time, in order to consolidate their interests, each generation of royal families and generals would marry their offspring. Since the founding of the Demon Clan, this has become almost an unwritten rule.
Who would be relieved to leave the military power in the hands of others, and in this case, they will become in-laws and become a family.
Nangong Po was slightly chubby at that time, with a white face, very cute. But this fat body contains great strength. As usual, he gently pushed open the door to tidy up and went to class. "Hello, are you Nangong Pogong?"
Nangong Po, looking up, only to feel that the woman, she probably accidentally fell into the mortal world, between the eyebrows of the angel, it is a different aura from the mortal woman She is like a feather in the air, you want to touch it, but you can't bear to disturb her quiet. It's better to treat her as a painting and guard her forever...
"Is there anything on my face? Why do you keep looking at me like this" "Well, that, nothing. It's a faux pas. Down there is Nangong Po, I don't know what the girl is looking for me?"
"It's okay, I'm just here to see my future husband. ”
"Ahh In the next first retreat, "After that, he ran out of the smoke."
"This kid, since he was a child, please don't laugh" The girl heard the sound and looked at it, and it was the general Nangong Wentian who spoke. "I've seen General Nangong"
"The princess doesn't need to see her like this, she just needs to greet her subordinates. "Thank you, your son's own mansion can't be lived. But do you want to live in this mountain wilderness? Wouldn't it be too wronged for him? ”
Nangong Po, where he now lives, is a wooden house built by himself. It is very simple to have doors and no windows. The wooden houses are built on high mountains, dark and damp.
"Girl, don't you know, he is my Nangong Wentian son, and he has shouldered the heavy responsibility of protecting the family and defending the country and expanding the territory since he was born. It is common to go out to eat and sleep in the open, if you are used to eating and drinking since you were a child, how can you eat the hardships of marching and fighting. "It's Qian'er who is abrupt"
"It's okay, girl, do you want to go to the dog's house to take a look?" "I'm afraid it's inconvenient" "It's okay, anyway, you're going to have to pass through my house sooner or later, why don't you get familiar with your husband now." ”
"This, well" gently pushed open the door, and the morning light illuminated the humble wooden house. An oil lamp, a few books, clothes and quilts folded neatly. "Is this the quality of a soldier?"
"The most important thing in the army is to be organized and disciplined, and you have to familiarize yourself with these as soon as possible. ”
"Me?" Zhao Qian was a little puzzled, "I'm going to the battlefield too?"
"Yes, children, most of your marriages are already doomed, and it is not up to you to control. Every time we marched and went to war, it was time-consuming and labor-intensive, sometimes we didn't go home once a month, and sometimes we didn't return home for a year. ”
"I just met a few times in a hurry, and I didn't really understand each other, so I happily gave birth to an heir. It is too sad to be a fertility tool, to be a woman who is almost equal to a widow. ”
"Wouldn't it be even more inappropriate to march and fight with female dependents?"
"Feelings can be cultivated slowly, and getting along for a long time makes it easier to breed love at your age. ”
Zhao Qian, a girl who was only a promise in the past, is quite strong today, "General Xiahou, feelings can be cultivated slowly, but the feelings cultivated will never be love, but more of a dependence." ”
General Nangong asked with great interest, "Oh~ It seems that Qian'er has a unique opinion on love? I really envy you at this age, I will believe that there is love in the world, and I will believe that there will be love at first sight in the world." It's not like we ......."
The words came to his lips, and he was swallowed back again, "Sure enough, people have experienced a lot, so they love to nag, come and walk around with the young lady" "Yes, general" Several maids answered, put down the chores in their hands, and rushed over to serve Zhao Qian. It was getting late, and Nangong Wentian personally sent Princess Zhao Qian out of the mansion.
It was also at this time that Nangong Po also returned home after a day's practice. Looking at the distant convoy, he asked, "Father, who has been here?" "Nobody, let's not talk about this, have you listened to Mr. today?"
"Listen... At the time of today's class, the child saw a woman in front of the room."
"Oh~ There is such a thing, tell my father how she looks. "She's pretty good-looking, but she's a little cold......" Nangong Wentian listened carefully like this, and remained silent. "Po'er" "What's wrong Dad?"
"You don't have to go to the cabin tonight, let's rest at home" "Is ??? tomorrow a special day?" "Nothing"
Nangong Po looked puzzled, but he didn't think too much, picked up the tea he had just made, and slowly tasted it, "It's just, it's just that Dad promised you a family business."
Puff cough cough, Nangong Poyan squirted out directly when he heard this, and he coughed straight after choking. "What, Dad, you're cheating on your son. ”
The next day, "Fengtian carried, my king will match Princess Zhao Qian to Nangong Po, and when the princess is new this year, the two will immediately get married. Chin this"
"The ministers and the lords, thank the demon king for his love", here I said, the rules of the demon race are much easier than those of the human race.
There is no need to kneel down when receiving the decree, just bow down and bow your head, and the same is true for the court.
"General Nangong, the Demon King also ordered you to give you something. "What's the matter? Hu Qian, no, no, the princess thinks that if she has a marriage contract, she should follow her maiden name, and she will be called Princess Zhao Qian in the future." ”
The demon king said that since the two parties have formed a family, they do not need to follow those red tape etiquette, and Princess Zhao Qian will come to live in the mansion today. ”
"What does the demon king mean?" "Fengzi gets married, and after the general calms the frontier and drives the demons back, he will amnesty the world in front of the people of the world and hold a grand wedding for Nangong Pogongzi"
"I'm afraid this is not appropriate, right? In the next few days, I have to negotiate with the dogs, where will I have time to discuss the affairs of my children?"
"General Mo Yan shirked, and he just brought words below, as for how to make decisions, it depends on the general. To tell the truth, in recent days, the demon king's old illness has relapsed, and his health is deteriorating, and what he is looking forward to most now is that his little daughter has a good home. I can also see my grandson a few days ago" and "the minister receives the order"
At night, when a few knocks sounded from outside, "Come in" Nangong answered and walked into the house lightly. With the flickering lights, Nangong Po saw the woman's appearance clearly. It's really beautiful, but I seem to have seen it somewhere. "Is that you?"
The girl seemed shy and nodded slightly, "Do you want to drink water?" "No thanks." Both of them were very quiet and didn't know what to say for a while. The atmosphere was very awkward for a while. When Zhao Qian came, she was also instructed by her father to give birth to a grandson sooner.
Looking at the father who loved him the most in the past, his gray hair was getting more and more, and his face was getting thinner and thinner, and his mental state was getting worse and worse.
Perhaps the greatest reward for children to their parents is to conform to their parents' arrangements and live their duties as they should. At that time, Zhao Qian, who was young and ignorant, thought naively.
Looking at the overwhelmed teenager in front of her, the girl reluctantly took off her coat. said softly, "It's not early, my husband and I should rest early." ”
"Ahh "But my husband dislikes me?"
"No, no, no, no, you're beautiful, more beautiful than any woman I've ever seen, but it's just that the two of us have never met, and today we are husband and wife, which is a bit ridiculous. ”
"Sometimes, I really envy the civilians, at least they have a lot of free time to do whatever they want. It won't be like me who has been reading and learning etiquette since childhood, and what they want to do in the future, or even who they want to marry, has been planned by them. It's ridiculous. ”
"I didn't want to come, but my father said that the emperor ordered me to come here. "So, what does Childe want?"
"I believe that the girl is by no means the kind of frivolous person who casually entrusts her life's affairs to others.
Let's start with friends, within half a year, if our relationship is still like this, if the girl meets her favorite person in this half a year, if within half a year, the girl still has not fallen in love with me, I will ask the paper to dissolve the marriage contract between the two of us. How?"
"Is this true?" "Pull the hook?" "Pull the hook" Looking at the half-grown woman's happy smile, Nangong Po finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Nangong Po woke up early, perhaps because he rested on the table for a night, his body was very uncomfortable, and he woke up very early, and moved his muscles and bones.
looked at Zhao Qian, who was still asleep, and tiptoed out of the room, washing and exercising. After running for a while, I saw that the sky was slightly bright, so I hurriedly took a shower, fetched a basin of water and walked to the room of the two. Halfway through, "Can you come over for a moment?"
As soon as the slave maid who disturbed the courtyard came over, "Young master, give these sundries to me quickly" "No, no, I have hands and feet, so I can't even hold a basin of water." There's something more important for you to do. "What's the matter?" Nangong Po whispered something in the ear of the slave maid.
"Okay, slave and maid, let's do it" "Well, I'm sorry for you, go and go back quickly." "Hmm"
"Well, you're up?" "Hmm" "Did you sleep well?" "Okay" The conversation between the two is still so awkward.
"I've got some water for you, you go wash up first" "Thank you, oh yes, when I came here yesterday, I found that you have a lot of slaves here, why didn't anyone come to serve you to wash?"
"These slaves, mostly poor people picked up from the battlefield, have been devastated by war. I wanted them to serve the country in the army, but none of them wanted to, so they had to take them home and choose some people with good character to make a living as servants. ”
Wait for him to save some money, quit his slavery to start a small business, and live an ordinary life. They're unfortunate enough, I have hands and feet, and I don't bother others with what I can do.
"This" has a bit of an impact on Princess Zhao Qian, who has always been pampered. The so-called slave is a beating and scolding, and any dirty work and tiring work can be instructed to do. Is it a thing that doesn't need to care about life and death? Nangong Po is really strange.
Zhao Qian, who is in the deep boudoir and rarely has contact with people, but which boy or girl in seventeen or eighteen does not think about spring?
She also fantasized about the prince charming in her heart, who must be handsome, sunny and handsome, witty and humorous, gentle and considerate, knowledgeable and responsible. It is better to be able to recite poetry against him all day long, and drink and talk.
It's a pity that Nangong Po, until now, unless it is an important occasion, it is not a drop of wine. He doesn't know anything witty and humorous, he can only be regarded as having a very positive outlook, gentle and considerate. Alas, it is really far from what I expected.
Nangong Po, Sanguan Zheng is by no means the kind of person who can easily compromise and work hard to change himself for the sake of a girl. So these two people with the same personality but completely different standards of conduct actually live together by accident, which can be regarded as a trick of God.
"That, I photographed you can't get used to our family's food, I asked people to go to the restaurant and get two dishes at random, and I'll send them to your room later, let's make do with them first." ”
"Thank you for the relationship, there's no need to be so troublesome, I can eat anything, just right, I also want to see what kind of breakfast the famous Nangong family will eat. "This" "Okay, okay, I'm a princess, but I'm not as delicate as you think"
"Participate in my father's lordship" "Come on, it's time to eat, I hope Qian'er won't dislike the coarse tea and light rice" "Dad, it's funny." Come to Dad, you eat more, Qian'er will add some food to you" "Okay, good"
Looking at the daughter-in-law who is knowledgeable, talks well, and is as beautiful as a flower, Nangong Wentian didn't mention how happy he was. "Po'er, you married such a good woman as Qian'er, you have to love it in every way in the future, don't treat others lightly" "Hmm"
Everything is going smoothly, the two of them respect each other like guests, and soon develop from an awkward chat between you and me to a friend who talks about everything. Zhao Qian, who has always been pampered, also has a lot of restraint in Nangong Po in ordinary life.
It's just that today, it's different from the usual. The border matter can no longer be delayed, Nangong Wentian took the female dependents to the border for the first time under the soft grinding and hard bubble of the demon king. Nangong Wentian is also numb in the scalp, and it will be inappropriate to take a female dependant in a war, whether it is food, clothing, housing or transportation. Among them, he has already made them clear.
But the demon king doesn't care about those, he doesn't care if Lao Tzu wants to hug his grandson, Lao Tzu is the biggest, and what Lao Tzu says is what kind of expression.
"Your sister, where did the time come from to fight? I Nangong Wentian, I have fought ambush warfare, encirclement warfare, annihilation warfare, etc., is my son more hanging, the first time he goes to the battlefield to fight a field battle to suppress the shock?"
In fact, Nangong Wentian agreed to the demon king, and he was also selfish, and the demon king insisted that Zhao Qian follow him to fight, which was also selfish. It's much more than it seems.
Nangong Wentian and His Majesty today are friends of each other, and they were also children who grew up together more than two hundred years ago.
The Demon King was also seriously injured in that battle, and all of this was caused by his own misjudgment.
Later, the demon clan spent countless treasures to be able to continue his life, but after so many years, years of hard work led to the recurrence of the demon king's old disease, and now he is like a candle in the wind, and he can't live too long.
So he can agree to any unreasonable request from the demon king.
The demon king is more worried, his child is stubborn, insidious and cunning, and even he can't see what this child is thinking. These days, the scout found out that his son had been privately investigating all the matters handled by the Nangong family.
The Nangong family is in a high position, and his own child is called the queen, so he will definitely suppress this uncontrollable force, and now he will start to search all matters that are unfavorable to the Nangong family, and use it to contain the power of the Nangong family.
The demon king stood up with difficulty, yes, now everyone can see that his time is short, but no one dares to say it. hopes that his daughter will marry the Nangong family as soon as possible and give birth to an heir and become half a royal person.
After he became king, for the sake of his relatives, he let the Nangong family have a way to live. cough cough cough a series of coughs, coughing up a lot of blood. "Someone, Paper"
"Yes, Demon King, I see that you are not feeling well, do you want to pass on the imperial doctor first. "No"
"Governing the country with people is like a whip, if you prick too much, you will hurt yourself, and if you don't stab too little on others, it won't hurt. ”
"Deliver this decree to the current prince overnight. "Yes"
"Prince, what does the demon king mean by this paper?
"It's nothing, Daddy can't hold it anymore. I just hope that I won't kill the ministers indiscriminately after he returns to heaven to consolidate his power as soon as possible. Instead, I hope that I can play with these capable ministers for my use. ”
"Then what does Your Highness mean?" "Whatever, it's good that he dies as soon as possible, don't talk about this, it's better to say that Concubine Ai woke up anyway, it's better for us" "I hate it~ Don't hurt people this time." "For a time, the spring in the prince's palace was infinite.
And in the study, the demon king is still constantly correcting and correcting the folds, "Start the demon king, now it's time to rest for the third watch." Take care of yourself."
The demon king rubbed his head that was a little swollen, "People are old, they can't do it, let's go back to bed" "Alas, you slow down"
