Chapter 35 Women in the Dust (3)
When Su Duojiao was hesitating whether she should go to the Northern Qi Palace's palace to celebrate her birthday, the old bustard pretended to cry and curse, and said with a handful of tears and snot: "Oh, my God, I have worked hard to raise my daughter, but I don't want to repay the kindness of raising my daughter, it is really unfilial to raise a child! What should I do on this day!
"Mom, don't be like this, isn't this a torment for your daughter? My daughter also has something to do, the king of Northern Qi is a wicked person who has brought disaster to the country and the people and the world, how can I go to celebrate his birthday? Doesn't it make the people of the world laugh at him?" Su Duojiao said her bitterness, but the old bustard was already open-minded, how could he care about any national affairs and national righteousness, or crying and making trouble, putting pressure on Duojiao.
Seeing this, Liu Yunhe, who was standing aside, looked at Duojiao and persuaded him: "Girl, your righteous spirit and patriotic feelings, this official understands. But this time the king of Northern Qi wants to invite you to celebrate his birthday, but also to fulfill the filial piety of the son of man and there is no fault, I want to make his mother happy, and filial piety is the first, no matter how he does to the world, but the old man is innocent after all, and I hope that the girl will be reluctant to go for the sake of this bit of human affection. ”
After hearing Liu Yunhe's words, Su Duojiao suddenly brightened up, and felt that it made sense, but she didn't expect that this adult was not only quick and patriotic, but also so understanding, and admired him even more, and nodded with a smile: "My lord, what you said is reasonable, okay, Mom, you go and reply that I will go to the appointment on time in two days." ”
At this time, the old bustard was finally overjoyed and immediately said: "Okay, my beautiful daughter, this matter is wrapped up in my mother, remember to dress up well, hehe!"
......
Duojiao plans to perform a set of sword dances and sword duels on her birthday, and she will definitely be ingenious and will shock everyone at that time.
Time passed like a cloud, and soon it was her birthday, but Duojiao was very strange, not wearing brocade clothes, gorgeous skirts, without any whitewash, she actually dressed up as a poor peasant woman, wearing the light small sleeves worn by the poor people, and took her ancestral seven-inlaid Yunfeng sword, sat in a sedan chair and prepared to go to the palace.
Seeing this, the old bustard said angrily: "Girl, what are you doing here? Do you want to lose my face, go like this, and anger the prince, do we still have a life? Come down from the sedan chair with me and re-dress." ”
At this moment, the person in front of him urged: "May I ask if Miss Su's sedan chair is in front?" The hour is not early, hurry up, don't delay." ”
As soon as the words fell, the sedan chair man began to carry the sedan chair, and now the old bustard felt that the situation was very serious, for thousands of years, there had never been a dancer to celebrate her birthday like this, she was really very anxious, what should I do?
The sedan chair was carried into Ronghua Street step by step, and then turned into Changping Street, and then carried forward for ten miles, Su Duojiao opened the curtain, and finally saw a luxurious mansion in front of him, which was engraved with "Northern Qi Palace" Four glittering big characters, which is also a symbol of high authority, is indeed extraordinary splendor, and the surrounding slaves and maids are arranging the street platform, only to see the big red cloth hanging high, a pair of birthday couplets pasted on both sides of the door, the courtiers also bring their ladies to come one after another, and the number of people in and out is very large.
Su Duojiao got out of the sedan chair, looked around the luxurious palace, shook her head and sighed, and was about to enter the mansion, but unexpectedly two very brightly dressed women came to her, muttering: "Look, Mrs. Chen, who is the one in front?
"Mrs. Li, what kind of life is this, I heard that the prince invited a woman from a green house to celebrate the old lady's birthday, saying that what kind of Oiran lady is it, it is her. The lady covered her mouth and laughed.
"Ahh ”
"Well, really. ”
It turned out that these two wives, one was the wife of Shangshu Chen Fuli, and the other was the wife of Li Bin of Chang'an Ling.
Hearing this, Ning'er, the maidservant beside Duojiao, couldn't bear this breath, she felt that it was too much, and just wanted to step forward to reply, but was stopped by Duojiao, shook her head, and said, "Don't make trouble, let's go in." ”
"But...... Miss, how can these two insult you like this, how can they?" Ning Er said very angrily.
"Silly girl, you are still young, how can you understand? In this troubled world, we must remember that if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and if you can endure what ordinary people can't bear, you can achieve great things, and besides, we are sitting upright, and we have never done anything to commit immorality, so why are we afraid? Why should we take these slanderous words to heart. Su Duojiao said.
They ignored the cynicism of others and went into the house, led by a soldier, into the middle hall, only to see the layout is extremely elegant, the center of the golden dragon pattern of the birthday picture, all kinds of festive pendants are pasted around, above the placement of a table of eight immortals, this table is the spoils of the Northern Qi king's victory over the southern tribes, it is also a rare thing, can automatically serve a lot of wine and food, but also means that life insurance longevity is 100 years old. Su Duojiao and the others stood on the side, waiting for the dance. After the meeting, the king of Northern Qi and the old lady attended, and they were very imposing, which really deterred all the guests present.
I only heard the king of Northern Qi happily let out a loud voice and said: "Thank you for coming to celebrate the birthday of the old mother, please eat, drink and have fun, and you will definitely come and return with fun." ”
Then he instructed the band to dance to cheer up, and said, "Tune it!" and many women dressed in gorgeous clothes began to sing and dance lightly, which was very festive.
After a while, I only heard the soldiers rush forward in a panic and said happily: "Lord, the emperor failed to come in person, and sent someone to send a congratulatory gift, which is a pair of ceramic antique vases." ”
But because he was too excited, he took three steps and two steps, accidentally stepped on the steps, and slipped and fell, but he smashed the holy gift of the royal gift, and trembled in fright, and immediately shrank into a ball and knelt on the ground, asking for forgiveness.
And the prince's face turned blue and furious, like a tiger trying to eat people, and said: "Dog slave, so bold, dare to be so reckless, come to someone, pull him out and kill him with a cane." ”
The soldier wept and kowtowed, and pleaded: "Lord, please be gracious, please be gracious! The slave will never dare again, no longer dare!"
"It's really unreasonable, quickly pull Gu out and kill him immediately. The prince was still angry.
"Lord, wait. Unexpectedly, at this time, the crowd remembered a soft voice, and everyone's eyes turned to this person, it turned out that she was Duojiao, because she really couldn't get used to the fox and fake tiger power of the king of Northern Qi, and regarded people's lives as grass mustard, so she had to come forward.
"Bold, who dares to be so presumptuous, it is really unheard of to be lonely and slow. As soon as the King of Northern Qi's voice fell, he took a closer look, and it turned out to be a girl in plain clothes, so he looked down on people and was very domineering: "Where did you come from, the yellow-haired girl dared to point fingers at Lonely, are you tired of it?"
"Back to the prince, the little girl has something to do. Su Duojiao was not afraid of the prince's tiger might, and still replied boldly.
"Hmph, what's the matter?"
Today is the old lady's birthday, and the vase is just broken, which means that it is particularly auspicious, indicating that the old lady will live longer than Nanshan, and ......" Su Duojiao wanted to stop talking.
"And what? If you want to say it, you can say it all, and you want to see what you little woman has to say. ”
"Back to the prince, and the little girl has heard that your command has organized a dragon army, today this vase was given by the emperor but unfortunately broken, doesn't it just mean that the prince is going to replace the emperor and for thousands of generations? ”
After hearing this, the king of Northern Qi was already very happy in his heart, but he still pretended to be fierce and vicious and said: "Little girl, you are so bold, you dare to say such a rebellious thing, aren't you afraid that Lone will push you out and ask for beheading?"
"Back to the prince, what the little girl said is true, if the prince is determined to punish the little girl, the little girl will never complain. Su Duojiao still said very calmly.
Who knows, the king of Northern Qi actually laughed out loud at this time. What is he laughing at? What is he going to know what will happen next?
