Chapter 17: Winning the Newlywed
A hundred miles wide river, bottomless water, how should these boats cross?
A whale chirping, a whale with its head exposed, and scales specialized for shipping made Zhuang Xun understand.
The world is so big that it's no longer the earth.
Although many species are earthly, they are actually two things.
A group of people got on the big boat, Zhuang Xun looked at the mountain peaks that were gradually moving away, and some wondered if the land he stepped on was flat.
Will there be a dragon monarch in this big river, or will it be a river bo, after all, there are immortals.
Thinking about these things, Zhuang Xun still didn't see the dragon and felt a little disappointed.
"What is Zhuang Lang disappointed about?" Li Ruxi stood next to Zhuang Xun, she didn't care about any reputation issues anymore.
It's also not Zhuang Xun who doesn't get married.
"Why isn't there a dragon in such a big river?" Zhuang Xun regretted that the Chinese people always have a special feeling for the dragon.
"Maybe it just doesn't come out? After all, there are all the immortals. Thinking of the immortals, Li Ru grinded her teeth, praised it, can you not step on it, now the generals of the whole country know that they are only worthy of being concubines.
"It's just that there are immortals who want to see dragons." If he didn't know that there were immortals, he would naturally not think of such a thing as a dragon.
"Zhuang Lang, don't think about it, welcome to Chengguo, the hometown of Ji'er." The smile is sweet, and her sick and weak posture is a little more sunny.
"That's right, hometown...... Ji'er is about to have a new home, and this can only be used as a hometown. Zhuang Xun took the initiative to take her hand and put her white tender fingers in the palm of his hand.
Li Ruxi's pretty face turned red, red to the root of her ears, and quietly peeked at Zhuang Xun, happy in her heart, she succeeded, and Zhuang Xun accepted her in her heart.
"Let's go, I heard that this place is not far from thistle." led her into the carriage.
Admiring the delicate and shy face of the beauty.
It's a joy to see a beautiful woman.
It's just that missing is a hard thing, and the shy beauty in front of her is how similar to Siqin Mi?
Thinking of Si Qin Mi in Jidu, the thoughts caused by that kind of expectation can't help but gush out, and treating Si Qin Mi is of special significance to himself.
"What is Zhuang Lang thinking? Still thinking about dragons? Li Ruxi saw that Zhuang Xun was thinking about things again, and couldn't help asking.
"Of course not, I miss your sister." Zhuang Xun didn't understand what a woman's heart said.
No, he understands, but in the face of Li Ruxi, he must say that if he can't stand this, then there will be a long time of hardship in the future.
"Sister? Oh, sister, is that so? What should Ji'er do then, will my sister hate Ji'er? She was stunned for a moment, then thought of the palace, and then reacted, Zhuang Xun was talking about Siqin Mi, and then she immediately changed her attitude and pretended to be pitiful.
Li Ruji is very pitiful, tall is tall, but the eyebrows and eyes are a kind of Xizi is sick and weak, the lady is gentle, and it is like pretending to be too much.
I really believe it, I thought it was a delicate woman, and I started to fight the tiger with three punches to let you know what remorse is.
"Your sister is very gentle, and she also persuaded me to take a concubine, saying that a person can't bear my affection, and she is a more sensitive character, and if you treat her with sincerity, she will repay you with sincerity."
Zhuang Xun comforted her, obviously she was already a worm in her cobwebs, why did she have to appease her by himself?
Li Ruxi is not a fuel-efficient lamp, Zhuang Xun thought about it, and he still tried his best to make the back house more stable, generally speaking, the male owner should remember not to stand in line, which one is weak and cares for that, and keeps himself out of the matter.
But for Zhuang Xun, Siqin Mi is like himself, and there is no standing in line.
"Ji'er understands, she will definitely treat her sister like she did to Zhuang Lang." Li Ruji said obediently that the apricot eyes were innocent.
Zhuang Xun couldn't help but shudder, to himself? Are you going to dig a pit for Si Qinmi? You're afraid you don't have to be her opponent.
When I arrived in Chengguo, it was obvious that there were more monks and Taoist priests on the street.
The closer you get to thistle, the more people there are, and they often see people sitting and talking, but Zhuang Xun is not very optimistic.
"If something is good at the top, it will be tended to be at the bottom, an eternal truth." Zhuang Xun lamented that there are more monks who do not work and do not generate taxes, which is harmful to the whole country.
"I heard that all the Taoist temples in the world have to pay cultivation fees to King Cheng, which has damaged the world and selfishness." He Jung, who was on the side, said disdainfully.
"This country is all his, what is he trying to do." Zhuang Xun felt that this practice was very inappropriate, and the gains generated were disproportionate to the losses caused.
"It's impossible to say whose world it is, it may be from a family." He Jungs chuckled, this is a common problem of the dynasty.
"I kind of see what you mean." After Zhuang Xun mentioned this point, he understood a little.
Isn't this just a disguised tax hike, the tax has also flowed into the private treasury of individuals, and the important thing is that it will not cause a backlash from public opinion.
So is this true monasticism, or false monasticism?
Before arriving in Jidu, Li Ruxi said goodbye to Zhuang Xun, after all, Zhuang Xun was conducting state affairs, and it was not good for her to be a private adulterer.
"When the negotiations are over, I will officially come to the door to propose." Holding Li Ruxi's hands, looking at the tall and feminine beauty, Zhuang Xun promised that it was already like this, since he had no plan to stop Li Ruxi, Li Ruxi did not refuse, and he and Li Ruxi were no longer able to figure out.
"Ji'er is waiting for Zhuang Lang." Eyebrows and smiles, the more you look at it, the happier you are, look at the good man, you are about to get it in your hands, and you will be a lot more relaxed and happy when you go home.
The twisted melon is finally sweet, and in general, Zhuang Xun eats it to death.
Plug in, enjoy Zhuang Xun's favor is in front of her, she envies Zhuang Xun and Siqin Mi, husband and wife, and now she is going to join this family.
There is joy and apprehension, but Zhuang Xun's face is thin, thinking that someone is watching, he quickly let go.
Arrived at Jidu, first greeted by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, received from the city gate to the palace, there were many people along the way, Zhuang Xun lifted the curtain and looked again, never found Siqin Mi, he was slightly disappointed, he wanted to see her face for the first time, but unfortunately he didn't see it along the way to the palace.
Zhuang Xun saw the prime minister, and compared to being in front of the emperor, the prime minister was much more majestic, and he also had the demeanor of an official, and his words also carried weight.
Because the emperor is obsessed with monasticism, he can only be received by the prime minister, one less salute, and many fewer things, Zhuang Xun is very happy, but there is still a lot of red tape, and the nobles like to get some tricks to torture themselves and torture the other side.
It's just a simple reception, the first day is not to talk about things, the other party praised Zhuang Xun for being young and promising, Zhuang Xun praised the other party for being old and serious, after a polite welcome, it seemed to see that Zhuang Xun was absent-minded, and the prime minister asked Zhuang Xun to go back to rest early.
The first day's meeting is over, and the next thing is to discuss the affairs of Hebei Province and Jiannan Province with the courtiers of the other party, but now Chengguo will discuss it first, and Zhuang Xun needs to wait for two days before talking to the other party.
Back at Yu Guo's mansion, Zhuang Xun was not in the mood to rest at all, so he changed his python robe and put on ordinary clothes.
"Do you know where the orchid garden is?" Zhuang Xun asked He Jung.
"I just hired a guide, now do you want to drive?" He Jung's inquiry, seeing Zhuang Xun's urgent expression, was a little amused, but he didn't dare to show it.
"Let's go, hurry up and ......" Zhuang Xun misses his wife too much, and when he is alone, he often has a feeling of loss, and after a short separation after falling in love, it is urgent to see him again.
When he saw He Heng, who was guarding outside the door, he looked up at the sign of Lanxiang Garden, Zhuang Xun was stunned outside, standing at the door and not daring to enter.
He Jun and He Heng, who were originally going to wait outside, were stunned, looked at each other, and looked at Zhuang Xun standing at the door, unable to understand.
"Benefactor, what are you?" He Heng took the initiative and asked Zhuang Xun.
"I'm thinking about how to explain to my wife about me and Miss Li'er, there are a lot of things before, I rehearsed it, but I feel that it's very wrong to say it now." Zhuang Xun had a bitter face, the person he was thinking about was inside, but now he was timid and afraid.
In any case, she will tolerate me, just say it.
But Zhuang Xun is such a hypocritical person, he thinks that others are good to him, he has to be good to others, Si Qinmi's good to him, he can't afford it, naturally there is no reason to make such an unreasonable request.
There is no lack of decisiveness when it should be decisive, and there is no lack of hesitation when it is time to hesitate.
When Zhuang Xun hesitated, in the orchid garden, Siqin Mi hummed a ballad, and the needlework in her hands became brisk.
"The wind is cool when it is clear, and the moon is high. The beauty is in cold clothes, and the anvil is laborious.
The dew is like jade, and the night hair is in the cool breeze. The lover is not still lying down, and Ye You walks in the bright moon.
The wild goose went south, and the milk swallow flew north. It is difficult to think about recruiting people, and I am willing to return to the autumn wind.
……”
"Sister Laneige, haven't you always missed your brother? Why is it that today he came and you didn't go to see him on the street? Si Qinmi's happiness He Tan understood, and looked forward to Zhuang Xun's return The lyrics would be understood, but she couldn't understand why she could sit so calmly all day today, embroidering and reading books as usual.
"It's going to come sooner or later, I've been waiting for a month, what if I wait a few more hours, but Sister Tan, you haven't forgotten our bet." Siqin Mi put down the needle and thread in his hand.
"No, if you ask my brother to divorce his wife, Sister Laneige has nowhere to go, let's go to my house first." Seeing the last letter, He Tan sympathized with Cheese Qinmi.
She also felt that her chances of winning were quite big, after all, Sister Laneige was ugly and had no family background, and that Li Ruji, I heard that the murderer was a little fierce, but she was beautiful but she was first-class beautiful, and she was also the daughter of General Li Pingyuan, who was now in full swing, normal people knew how to choose, how could they give up Li Ruji for an ugly wife with no background.
"You little girl, you're going to suffer a big loss today." Siqin Mi said with a faint smile, suddenly feeling something, and her brilliant eyes flickered.
"What loss can I suffer, I understand my brother." Pouting unconvinced, He Tan looked at Si Qinmi, who was calm and relaxed, and was faintly uneasy.
Could it be that Brother Qian, who likes beauty, would really reject a woman like Li Ruxi, who has an unusual background and beauty, for the sake of the so-called four virtues?
"Impossible, impossible......"
"What if it's really like rejecting my mother...... "The voice in my heart flooded with this voice.
"Knock Knock ......"
"Who!" Si Qinmi stood up, the other party didn't make a sound, she knew who it was.
"I'm ......" Zhuang Xun pushed the door open.
Looking at each other, Si Qinmi is still so beautiful, as quiet as her name, and her brilliant eyes are as beautiful as the sun, like the sun, who can get close to her.
"Lady, I miss you!" Ignoring the little girl who was still on the side, Zhuang Xun threw himself into Siqin Mi's arms.
Just pounced, the tall Siqin Mi hugged Zhuang Xun tolerantly, not abrupt at all, showing a doting smile, and said to Zhuang Xun in a soothing tone: "How do you look like a big child who doesn't grow up." ”
"I miss you." Breathing in the familiar smell of the beauty, a sweet fragrance of orchid, Zhuang Xun hesitated and entangled many questions, but when he saw Si Qinmi, all these hesitant questions became irrelevant.
"Someone is watching." Like a cat, he kept arching his neck solemnly, and Si Qinmi looked at He Tan with a shy smile.
"Sister Tan, if you don't avoid it, I haven't seen her for a long time." Zhuang Xun hugged Si Qinmi tightly, and said to He Tan without looking back.
It's not that he dislikes He Tan, it's just that he is reluctant to turn around from Siqin Mi's arms.
His feeling for He Tan is the sister next door, and he is not particularly familiar with him, and now, you are hindering me from getting close to my mother.
"What do you say, a high-ranking official of the third grade, you don't talk about anything at all, let go of the concubine." Although he was scolding in his mouth, he was caressing Zhuang Xun's back and feeling how tightly Zhuang Xun hugged him.
Lang Jun, whom he loved deeply, came back, came back, hugged himself, and seemed to be able to feel his strong heartbeat, and joy flowed from his heart.
"Oh......" Siqin Mi taught people, and Zhuang Xun obediently listened to her words, and reluctantly let go of her.
"Sister Tan, Lang Jun has no brains, you know, don't worry about him, you guy, Sister Tan's family came to chat with me, don't thank you, you will let people go when you enter the door, you are so powerful." Siqin Mi taught Zhuang Xun with a straight face.
"I'm sorry, Sister Tan, I was wrong, I'll compensate you." Zhuang Xun sincerely apologized, thinking that He Tan was also the daughter of Sister Dong and Second Brother He, she was a little too much just now, she had no brains, and she took it for granted.
"No need to apologize, ask my brother to miss Sister Laneige, but I don't know each other, I'll leave now." He Tan's face turned red, and with Zhuang Xun's apology, it became softer, but there were still a few wisps of redness, which looked very intoxicating and cute.
She got up from the soft couch and was about to leave.
"What are you mad at with a stupid guy, he's stupid in the first place." Si Qinmi grabbed He Tan's wrist and pulled her back.
He Tan wanted to break free, but Si Qinmi leaned into her ear and whispered in her ear: "Bet, bet ......"
Hearing Si Qin Mi's words, He Tan quieted down, let Si Qin Mi pull her to sit next to her, and reprimanded Zhuang Xun: "I hurt Sister Tan's heart, go to the kitchen to get candied fruit." ”
"Oh, kitchen, where ......" Zhuang Xun honestly accepted the order.
"Brother Qian, don't use it, I just think I'm an eyesore......" He Tan looked at Zhuang Xun's obedient appearance, this bet, what else is this bet.
"The body is delicate, who's in the way, the kitchen is at the end of the corridor, go quickly." Siqin Mi urged Zhuang Xun to say.
"Sister Tan, don't be angry, didn't you always know that he didn't understand people?" Si Qinmi held He Tan's small hand and explained to Zhuang Xun.
"I'm not angry, I'm not angry, it's just that it looks like I've lost." He Tan said in frustration.
"I'm not angry yet, this delicate little face is red, I'm not angry yet, don't you want to hear how I lost if I lose?" Si Qinmi touched He Tan's delicate hair, this little girl is so cute, she wants to be a concubine for Lang Jun, so as not to make Lang Jun have a reputation of liking small bullies in the future, she is higher than him, I heard that the second lady of the Li family is also very tall.
"Don't think about it......" He Tan shook his little head.
"Do you want to ......" forcibly held He Tan in his arms.
"Sister Laneige, I have admitted defeat......" Sitting in Si Qinmi's arms, He Tan shouted pleadingly.
"But the concubine doesn't feel victorious yet." Before Siqin Mi's words fell, Zhuang Xun had already walked in with a plate of candied fruit.
"What do you think is ...... victory" Hearing Si Qinmi's words, Zhuang Xun said curiously, in his eyes, two beauties, one big and one small, were like a beautiful painting.
"You're curious about what other women's girlfriends are whispering, really, your good mood has been mixed by you." Siqin Mi pretended to be angry.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" naturally, he fell into the rhythm dominated by Siqin Mi, and Zhuang Xun, who sat down, apologized one after another.
"I don't particularly blame Lang Jun for you, next time I speak, I should pay attention to the feelings of others, fortunately, Sister Tan is generous and has forgiven Lang Jun, right." Siqin Mi put a jade hand around He Tan, who was embarrassed, and a jade hand reached over the small table on the couch and held Zhuang Xun's hand.
I don't know if I think she is the master of the harem, a man and a woman, one in arms, one holding hands, she is the one who enjoys the blessings of all people.
He Tan couldn't feel disgusted in the face of Si Qinmi's forcible words, it was really Si Qinmi's gentle temperament, and the words he said made people feel like a spring breeze.
"I never blamed Brother Qian, I know that Brother Xun is a ...... Straightforward people. After a pause, he found an adjective, even if it was because Sister Laneige forgave him.
"Sister Tan forgave you, and the concubine also forgave you, Lang Jun, can you tell me what happened to Yin Du? It's also very unusual for you to rise to this official position. "The eyes are bright, the eyes of the beauty are solemn and clear, a little accusatory, a little spoiled.
I've got you covered.
"Well, I don't think it's normal, if I wasn't sure that my body was 100% mine, I would have thought I was the son of King Yu who was exiled among the people." Thinking of his experience in Yindu, Zhuang Xun felt like he was on a roller coaster, reversing and reversing, and his heart was not good.
"Your current official position is indeed like, I'm afraid that Yin Du has already been rumored......" Si Qinmi smiled secretly.
"Regardless of whether he passes it on or not, it's quite thrilling to say, I never thought that Qian Quanzhong's son Qian Xinzhao would be able to do something to buy a murderer......" Zhuang Xun said what happened at the beginning.
Si Qinmi's hand couldn't help but clench Zhuang Xun, although he knew that Zhuang Xun was safe and sound now, but the worries he should have were indispensable.
The text is only a few short sentences, but the danger that Zhuang Xun faced at that time, and the preparation to die calmly have been expressed.
No, I regret it, I have someone to fish, Huang Xi has no one to fish, he regrets implicating these brothers.
Maybe he will lose money to be the boss, he feels that he will do how much money he gives the other party, Huang Xi has no need to stay with him on the adventure, what kind of life to give for this kindness, he doesn't want him to pay back.
"I was saved by Miss Li Er in the back, lady, can you think about it? Fighting a dozen of them at a time, these strong men who seem to be practicing martial arts are like children...... "I still feel incredible when I think about it now, and I feel that only Indian movies can show such pompousness."
"Then Lang Jun, you will stay in the Chengguo Mansion, right?" Si Qinmi took Zhuang Xun's words, looked at He Tan's expression of listening carefully, and smiled even more.
"It's too dangerous outside, Miss Li agreed to it as soon as she invited me, and then I did something that gave me brain cramps." Zhuang Xun glanced at He Tan and felt that it was not good to say it in front of her, but Si Qinmi clasped his palm and said that he would let him speak.
"Seeing that she killed people cleanly, and then I felt weak and incompetent at that time, I begged her to teach me to practice martial arts......" Speaking of this, Zhuang Xun really wanted to cover his face, just like he had just asked her to avoid him, which was a product of emotional excitement.
"You've been in love with her for a long time?" Si Qinmi smiled, on the surface, she no longer has the feeling of jealousy, after all, her own Langjun has eliminated this emotion with his actions.
"No, I did something nasty." On this topic, Zhuang Xun glanced at He Tan again.
He Tan was hugged by Si Qinmi's stomach and wanted to get up, but couldn't get up.
"Let's say, the concubine doesn't care if you're indecent or not, you're the concubine's concubine." Siqin Mi urged.
The little girl in your arms is flushed, I care.
However, Siqin Mi urged, and Zhuang Xun also said that he grabbed someone's wrist in a moment of excitement, and the scoundrel did not separate.
"It's a shame that the other party didn't kill you!" Siqin Mi glanced at Zhuang Xun, and the little girl in her arms didn't move.
"She likes me and is reluctant to beat me, and she took the initiative to hold hands this time." After Zhuang Xun finished speaking, he observed the change in Si Qinmi's expression, but in fact, it did not change.
Zhuang Xun began to talk about the sources of Li Ruxi's good feelings for him, including the palace after the break, these good feelings are not abrupt, but they are not specified......
Siqin Mi listened and nodded slightly.
Then came Li Ruxi's confession.
"I don't dare to agree easily, so I can only come and ask the lady to make a decision, whether I want to accept this sister." After Zhuang Xun finished speaking, he grabbed Siqin Mi's hand.
"If you force the palace like this, don't the concubines have to agree." Siqin Mi glanced at Zhuang Xun.
"If you don't agree, I have to go to Lifu to ask for guilt, I hope you have your own decision, don't take care of me." Zhuang inquired about the right color, he respected Siqin Mi.
"Why don't I take care of you, of course I agreed, after all, the concubine has always asked you to take a concubine, so why not be a flat wife." Si Qinmi's answer was unexpected, and Zhuang Xun was also relieved.
The slightly tense atmosphere suddenly became much more harmonious, but He Tan's head lowered.
After chatting from Fengguan to Chengguo, it was getting late.
He Tan said goodbye again, this time Si Qinmi didn't stop her again, the little girl walked a little stumbling, I don't know if she had been sitting for a long time and was numb.
Farewell to the door, handed over He Tan to He Heng, as for He Jung, he has already explained that he will pick him up tomorrow.
There are only two husband and wife left.
"The concubine is going to cook." It's like a small home in Yu Country.
Siqin Mi cooked, Zhuang Xun picked up the book and read, waiting for her to make dinner.
Find the most familiar rhythm, eat, chat, and talk about everything, such as the big whale before, and the galloping road, sighing at the mystery of the fairy law.
"I don't want to be separated from you, sleeping alone at night always feels like something is missing." For the lady, the sky is dark, and bold words are easier to say.
The pearl-like toes slid in Zhuang Xun's hand, and today's Siqin Mi wore her most beautiful and expensive white and red moire curved deep robe.
"Concubines too, panic all day." Si Qinmi looked at Zhuang Xun who was rubbing her lotus feet, as if she had a heart-to-heart match, it turned out that it was not just her, and she suddenly felt sweet.
The towel wipes the drained golden lotus, this lotus foot is really pitiful, white and tender, the meat is whirring, pinched up plump and soft, but without losing the bone.
"Well......"
"Lang Jun, what are you doing!" The lightning retracts the beautiful leg, and the feeling of electric touch is in the instep of the foot.
"Can't your own lady kiss?" Zhuang Xun was slightly puzzled, but Siqin Mi was speechless for a while.
"You can't kiss indiscriminately!" Pulling the quilt to cover her little feet, Jiao Jing has become hot and incoherent.
"Okay, good ......" didn't tease Si Qinmi, Zhuang Xun poured the water with a basin.
There is no lights out, Zhuang Xun climbed into bed, dignified beauty, quiet and beautiful, hibiscus jade with rouge powder, slender posture is moving, he has a heart for beauty.
Under the light, the figures overlap, either rapid or slow, or divided or combined.
Xiao Biesheng is newlywed, and the spring breeze is single-minded.
Twigs press large flowers, shrubs climb melons.
"Lang Jun, I'm sorry, the concubine shouldn't have scolded you just now, let you apologize."
The beauty is delicate and soft, and asks Zhuang Xun to forgive her for standing in He Tan's position and asking Zhuang Xun to apologize.
The wife who dotes on Zhuang Xun naturally thinks that her behavior is wrong, maybe it is right in front of outsiders, but when Zhuang Xun is with her, it is not right, at least in her opinion.
"Then how are you going to compensate me?" It's not reasonable, but this situation will be unreasonable, and if you dare to apologize, I will dare to accept it.
"How does Lang Jun want to compensate?" The beauty is full of affection.
"You're ...... like that"
"Huh? This, this is Yilangjun......"
"I can't reach it when I stand up straight, and the small table on this soft couch is okay."
6600 words, goodbye big wife, I want a monthly pass
