Chapter 0067: A Good Night Is Short
At the moment when the green carp was busy serving tea and pouring water for everyone, no one spoke, and Mi Ping kept smelling the fragrance of tea, as if waiting for Xu Lin to speak first.
But Xu Lin was closing his eyes and recuperating, the atmosphere was slightly embarrassing, he observed these people in Mihua, it was really funny, to test his own reality, but he didn't know that he was sending a piece of meat to his mouth!
Suddenly, Xu Lin spoke without warning, "My eldest brother Xu Aotian has done a good job at the border of the Hu people, driving the Hu people for a hundred miles, and when the border is clean, the border will be able to build a city as soon as spring begins next year." I really hope that my eldest brother's side can be prosperous, or the war of the Northeast Army, which has great casualties, will be fought in vain. ”
Qi Ping couldn't figure out where the point of Xu Lin's words was, whether he wanted to express that Xu Aotian did a good job, or did he want to say that the Northeast Army suffered heavy casualties, since Xu Lin's words were ambiguous, he could only make an ambiguous reply, he said: "The border of Beihu, I have been there, it is really a vast land, the Northeast Army chariots, Ma Xiaoxiao, and the Hu people are hundreds of miles away, and the prince can stabilize the country, thanks to the bloody struggle of the soldiers of the Northeast Army." ”
Xu Lin picked up the teacup, tasted it, and said: "The Beacon Fire Road is prosperous, Mi Aiqing is well governed, after returning to the palace, His Royal Highness will definitely play my father and give you a reward." ”
Xu Lin suddenly changed the topic, Qi Ping didn't know what the prince was going to say, and his thinking had to be changed, and said, "This is all Your Majesty's imperial grace." ”
Xu Lin sighed: "Xing, the people are bitter; Death, the people are suffering! There was a big flood in Kowloon Road, tens of thousands of people were affected, and the war in the north was miserable, but the Beacon Road was singing and dancing! ”
Qi Ping finally understood what Xu Lin meant, this kid from the capital of the world came to the southwest region to solve the matter of the victims of Kowloon Road, and at the end of the conversation, he was trying to raise food money for Kowloon Road!
Mi Ping immediately said: "The minister ordered someone to transport the grain stored in the granary of Beacon County to Kowloon Road, and open a trade channel with Kowloon Road!" ”
Xu Lin let his momentum override Qi Ping from the very beginning, and talked to him with a condescending attitude, the purpose was to let him know how powerful he was, let him make a new choice, and open the channel of trade with Kowloon Road, so that he could have the final say?
Xu Lin's eyes were half-closed, and he said in a lazy tone: "Don't bother, Taishang Laojun has a saying, if you govern a big country and cook Xiaoxian, you can't be the master of some things, I can't be the master, and my father can't be the master, it all depends on the will of God, the disaster of Jiulong Road, probably God's will, I came to the southwest, I just want to take a turn, take a look, I didn't think about disaster relief, the legs are growing on them, they want to live and naturally have a place to eat waiting for them, but, when they came to this Beacon County, they encountered an interesting thing, His Royal Highness has never had a formal marriage contract, but someone grabbed a woman with His Royal Highness, which is interesting! ”
Mi Hua was completely blinded by Xu Lin, and didn't think about disaster relief? Just come out and take a turn, who will believe it! He pondered Xu Lin's words, his father couldn't be the master, probably beating himself? Did he know the secret decree that His Majesty had given him?
But the topic turned to Mi Ping, and there had to be an explanation, he said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen took the liberty to come here just to let Mi Ping come to confess his guilt to the Prince." ”
Xu Lin smiled and said: "What's this, fair lady, good gentleman, Chen Shanshan and I are married, it's just a joke from the queen mother, just with your family background, marrying the eldest lady of the Ministry of Rites is more than enough." ”
Mi Ping was surprised for no reason, but Mi Hua's heart exploded, Xu Lin was indeed beating himself, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, he couldn't look down on it, but Mi Ping could marry.
What else can Mihua say? can only say: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is naturally married to the best-looking girl in the world, and the dog is not worthy." ”
The real purpose of Mi Hua's visit is to explore the depth of Xu Lin, the assassination is just right, the movement is too big, I am afraid that the world will criticize Concubine Mi Guifei, the movement is small, and he can't take Xu Lin, so he said: "The people in the southwest are fierce, and many sects do not recognize the jurisdiction of the government, and the prince is rampage with 6,000 people, I am afraid that there is danger." ”
Xu Lin narrowed his eyes when he heard this, the corners of his mouth hooked, and said: "His Royal Highness took 10,000 people to rampage in the territory of the Ghost Fang and did not encounter danger, in my Wuyang territory, there are still people who want to assassinate me?" ”
At this point, it was almost clear, and Qi Hua met Xu Lin's gaze, and the undercurrent surged.
Mi Hua thought to himself, this kid is really not an idle character, he knows that he can't talk anymore, if he talks again, he will completely fall into the trap of this prince's language, if he turns his face on the spot, he will be guilty of disrespect.
But Xu Lin's plan has just begun, he said: "Aiqing, I heard that the embroidery of the Beacon Road is the best in the world, look at the decoration in this palace, rigorous and delicate, bright and flat, sparse composition, thick and round, bright colors, a few of my unsuccessful maids want to learn, Aiqing can have a master to recommend?" ”
Qingli and Nightingale are both extremely smart people, as soon as Xu Lin said this, they knew what the prince meant, Qingli stepped forward to Chen Rutong's side, and said: "Madame's clothes are so beautiful, and this handkerchief, are you embroidered it yourself, or is it embroidered by the maidservant?" ”
How did Chen Rutong know the meaning of this sentence? Hearing someone praise her, she was quite beautiful in her heart, and said: "I embroidered the handkerchief myself, if you want to learn, I can teach you." ”
Mi Hua immediately said: "Presumptuous, how noble is the status of the servant girl around the prince, how can you take those female workers?" ”
Xu Lin waved his hand and said: "Aiqing, His Royal Highness has lived in the palace for a long time, and has seen the best things in the world, Mrs. Zun's female red is better than my mother, so it's decided, Mrs. Zun stayed in the palace to teach me these stupid slaves and maids, it's close to noon, Aiqing stay in the mansion to eat!" ”
Mi Hua immediately had nothing to say, the prince had left Chen Rutong as a hostage, he was very annoyed, how could he make such a stupid move?
The next dinner was some unnutritious greetings.
In the evening, Xu Lin looked at Chen Rutong, who was seriously teaching carp embroidery kung fu, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and he smiled evilly, and the nightingale beside him said: "Master, there is such a good opportunity during the day, how good it is to leave them in this palace, they have no leader, and they can't afford to turn up any storms." ”
Xu Lin said with a smile: "I didn't hear what people Mi Hua said, this is other people's territory, if you kill them like this, the soldiers and civilians of the Beacon Fire Road will not be able to get along with us, and we will really not be able to get out at that time." A lot of things can only be done in secret! Mi Hua wants me to die, and he has to let me die in secret. ”
Nightingale nodded silently and said: "If we want to kill them openly, we won't be able to get out, if they want to kill us openly, they will also be accused of punishing the Nine Clans, Your Majesty can't protect them, alas, it's really troublesome." ”
"It's not troublesome at all, it's simple."
Xu Lin's eyes were still on Chen Rutong's body, and he said: "Tsk, how did this woman be born, she is so good-looking, it is a pity to be Lao Tzu's bargaining chip!" ”
——
In the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Mi Hua's face was gloomy, and it was not sweet to eat sugar, how deep his feelings for Chen Rutong were, no, Chen Rutong was in the hands of Xu Lin, Chen Ziang's 200,000 army could not be mobilized, and without the army, how could he fight with the prince?
Mi Hua immediately wrote a letter and sent someone out of the city overnight, if that person was invited, it should be no problem.
Mi Hua could only send someone to send it, because the chicken eagle in the southwest was not the opponent of Hai Dongqing raised by Xu Lin in captivity, if he used the chicken eagle to send a letter, it would become Hai Dongqing's food as soon as it flew.
Qi Hua looked at the map, circled a position with a pen, squinted his eyes and said: "There are 6,000 soldiers, two generals, and eight maidservants, this is all your team, the feng shui of the Beacon Fire Road is excellent, His Royal Highness the Prince, you die here, your mother, and your sister help take care of it, Your Majesty will not embarrass them, who let the Nangong family be kind to Wuyang?" ”
——
Chen Rutong explained to the green carp seriously, "There are 12 categories of stitches in the southwest embroidery, more than 130 kinds, which is the richest of the four famous embroideries, and more than 70 clothes brocade threads are unique to the southwest embroidery." Commonly used needle methods include halo needle, paving needle, rolling needle, truncating needle, doping needle, sand needle, cover needle, etc., pay attention to the neat stitches, bright wire, tight and soft, and the car is screwed to the home. ”
Holding the needle and thread, the green carp asked, "Is there one type of stitch used for a piece of embroidery?" ”
"Of course not, these stitches are to be used in a staggered manner, our southwest girl's needle, just like a painter's pen, not only good at embroidering flowers, birds, insects and fish and other delicate brushwork, but also good at expressing the majestic landscape picture, portraying the image of the character is also realistic and expressive."
Chen Rutong brought many of her works to the green carp, the agility of the carp, the agility of the golden monkey, the beauty of the characters, the magnificence of the mountains and rivers, the diversity of flowers and birds, and the simplicity of the panda.
Qingli said: "Madam, you are a good sister, but the pity is that you have always been a bargaining chip in the hands of men, Mi Hua used you to restrain your father, and my prince had to use you to restrain Mi Hua, so, madam, you may not be able to go back, you take you as a hostage, and my prince will not embarrass you." ”
Chen Rutong froze in place, the needle accidentally pricked her fingers, she didn't feel the pain, and she didn't notice the blood flowing all over her fingers.
Qingli picked up her finger and put it in her mouth, sucked off the blood, and said softly: "Madam, you are still obedient." ”
Chen Rutong didn't even wear shoes, so she hurriedly ran out, and when she was about to go out, a big knife slashed at her front door, and when it was only an inch away from her eyebrows, it stopped in mid-air.
Zhang Mingyue said: "Madame, don't run around, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin, the methods of my prince can't even bear the iron-clad ghost man." ”
Chen Rutong looked at Guan Dao's blade in fear, slowly took a few steps back, turned around and was about to run back, but it hit Xu Lin's strong chest straight up.
"The hands are like soft wattles, the skin is like clotted fat, the collar is like a grub, the teeth are like a rhinoceros, the head of the mantis is like a moth eyebrows, the smile is clever, and the eyes are beautiful." Xu Lin raised his hand and pinched Chen Rutong's chin, and said, "The bad old man is useless, it's better to warm the bed for His Royal Highness, the good night is short, you just follow me!" ”
As he spoke, Xu Lin picked up Chen Rutong horizontally and walked towards the inner house, the wolf-toothed warriors laughed non-stop, and Zhang Mingyue took the lead in shouting: "I wish His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a spring dream without a trace......
