Chapter 41: Rotten Peach Blossoms
A trace of astonishment flashed in Xie Zhao's eyes, she supported her chin with one hand, and felt a little helpless.
That's really ...... What are you afraid of?
Xie Zhao frowned slightly, and muttered distractedly: "...... Is he really the eldest son of the Li family? It's a bit of a trick. ”
Seeing that her expression was different, Ling He also raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Could it be that there is something wrong with the eldest son of the Li family?" Or is there any bad news? ”
Xie Zhao shook his head slightly, waved his hand casually, and smiled.
"There's nothing wrong with that. I heard that this eldest prince has been very motivated since he was a child, and now that martial arts have entered the realm of Mahayana, he can be regarded as a rare son in the rich and noble pile in Beijing who has not grown crooked and has not been lying in a nest.
He is also extremely handsome, and he can be regarded as the number one beautiful man in Zhaoge City. But ......."
You know, everything is afraid of a "but", "but" and "but......
Han Changsheng heard the gossip secrets, which was not patient at all, as soon as he heard Xie Zhao's "but", he immediately hurriedly urged:
"—but what? You should say it quickly, hey, but you are in a hurry to die, and you can't sell it at this time. ”
Xie Zhao sighed lightly, and he was not in the mood to tease them.
"However, I heard that this eldest prince Li is now twenty-four years old and has not yet married......"
Ling Or was slightly surprised, and his eyebrows were slightly stunned.
Yu Anan was also stunned.
"Huh?"
Han Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and then immediately puzzled: "What kind of expression do you have, isn't that a good thing?" It shows that their Li family abides by the old promise and has been waiting for An An! ”
Ling Or turned his head and glanced at Yu An'an, who looked stunned, he already understood Xie Zhao's unfinished meaning. So he turned his gaze away and explained for Xie Zhao:
"After the court and nobles, different from the prodigal sons in the rivers and lakes, the children of large families often set their family affairs very early, and happy events are also done early. Sons generally marry wives at the age of eighteen, and young ladies generally marry at the age of sixteen.
- But Mrs. Yu didn't want to recognize this family, so she had never been urged by anyone for so many years. But what about the Li family?
The Li family obviously knew that Mrs. Yu and their mother and daughter were in Pingzhou City, why did the eldest son have been of the right age for many years, and no one had ever come to the door to ask? ”
When he said this, he silently glanced at Yu An'an, who frowned slightly, again.
"Therefore, I think that Mr. Li has never married a wife so far, and he may not be waiting for An An, maybe there is some reason that we don't know at the moment."
Han Changsheng thought about it and felt that it seemed to be such a reason, so he frowned and asked again: "Could it be because An An is too young and has not yet reached the age of marriage?" So the son of the Li family has waited for many years, and he has been stumbling for years? ”
Xie Zhao smiled, as if he was shocked by his innocence.
She shook her head, "How so?" Are you joking about weddings and funerals? Shout today, and tomorrow people will be carried through the door? It was a small family taking a concubine, but it was not a noble man who was marrying a wife.
An An is now sixteen years old, if the Li family really intends to fulfill the contract, then it must be two or three years before An An is old, that is, when An An is twelve or thirteen years old, he will already be famous for Najib.
There are a lot of exquisiteness and cumbersome steps in getting married, and if you are too hasty, you will lose the face of the two families. What's more, the bride should be given more than half a year to prepare embroidery and dowry...... Ling or guessed that eight or nine were not far from ten, and the Li family might not want to fulfill the contract. ”
When Han Changsheng heard this, he was immediately unhappy.
"What kind of unbelieving and unrighteous man is this? Thanks to Mrs. Yu and An An, they don't want to marry, otherwise wouldn't they be heartbroken by their snobbish appearance? ”
Xie Zhao smiled faintly, and she unconsciously tapped her fingertips on the table......
I think that Mrs. Yu has been more or less aware of the Li family's attitude over the years, so she is so determined to let Yu An'an return the old things, so as not to completely ruin the relationship between the two families.
She said lightly: "Speaking of which, about this Li Suining...... Oh, it's the eldest son of the Li family, I heard in Zhaoge that he provoked some unlucky rotten peach blossoms. ”
The three of them looked up at her in unison.
Especially Han Changsheng, he is never willing to be left behind when it comes to gossip and secrets, his eyes are shining!
"'Unlucky rotten peach blossom'? - Ah Zhao, say it quickly! Let me see how unlucky this negative man is? Knowing that he is not doing well, I can also feel comfortable in my heart, who made them feel sorry for us. ”
Xie Zhao thought about it himself and smiled first.
"Actually, I can't rely on him for this. Didn't Fang Cai say it, he is one of the most beautiful men in Zhaoge City, and he is also a son of an official eunuch who is promising-this person, if he is born too eye-catching, it is not a good thing. No, he provoked people he couldn't afford to provoke. ”
Well?
The other three couldn't help but be stunned.
In such a short moment, Han Changsheng's mind had already flashed through the love-hate entanglement of countless words in the book.
Ay?
Wait a minute!
Provoked someone he couldn't afford to provoke?
However, this eldest prince Li is already the eldest prince of the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion, and his status and martial arts are enough, what kind of person can make him retreat and dare not parry?
Han Changsheng suddenly had an idea, and suddenly realized: "-I know!" It's a princess! It's the princess who has taken a fancy to him! ”
Xie Zhao bowed his head with relief, it seems that this nerd's brain has made a lot of progress during this time, especially when he encounters the short gossip trivia of these parents, it is even more enlightened.
However, before she could praise her, Han Changsheng shouted in shock while pulling his neck:
"-It turns out that the 'Chitose Sword Immortal' has taken a fancy to him? So the intention is to take it by force?! ”
Xie Zhao: "......"
Ling Or: "......"
Yu An'an: "......"
In a mouthful of silence, Han Changsheng awkwardly slammed his foot at the floor.
“...... What's the matter, didn't Xie Zhao nod, isn't it, isn't it a princess? ”
Xie Zhao's face stopped talking, and he burst out with a puzzled face: "What's the matter?" Could it be that in the entire Southern Dynasty Tianchen, there is only one princess of the 'Thousand Years Old Sword Immortal'? ”
Han Changsheng was stunned, "Ah, that's not it...... That's right......"
He scratched his head and muttered in a low voice: "But it's no wonder to me, when it comes to the princess of Tianchen, looking at the whole world, the first name that pops up in everyone's mind is not the most famous one!" ”
Ling He shook his head helplessly and smiled after being stunned, and he said:
"If you think about it, you should know that this must not be, Princess Tianchen is a well-known generation of sword immortals, the first kendo master of the Southern Dynasty, and the first sword in today's martial arts, how can she rob the people's men......"
Ling He frowned and glanced at Xie Zhao, who was hanging his head and smiling, as if he didn't understand what she was smoking, and then added lightly to Han Changsheng:
"-Even if you are not a people's man, it is impossible to rob the official eunuch."
Han Changsheng thought about it for a while, so he laughed.
"Oh yes....."
Xie Zhao finally finished laughing, she wiped the corner of her eyes with a trace of splash that could be held back from the smile, and looked at Han Changsheng again with a smile, as if she felt that this kid was stupid and unique, and it was not comparable to ordinary people, and then smiled ruthlessly and spit out a pertinent evaluation of four words.
"That's a great mallet."
Yu Anan suddenly bit his lip and asked gently, "So...... Which princess did that Grand Prince Li provoke? ”
