Chapter 447 Bitch
Inside and outside the gate of the palace,
If Eunuch Zhao is not considered a person,
There are only four people standing.
From the Regent's point of view,
The remaining three people are:
His younger sister,
His future brother-in-law,
His real brother-in-law.
From Zheng Boye's point of view, they are:
His wife,
His brother-in-law,
The philanthropist surnamed Qu;
From Qu Peiluo's point of view, they are:
His wife,
His brother-in-law,
His old Regent.
Finally,
From the Princess's point of view, they are:
The person she loves,
The person who wants to marry her,
The person she will marry.
Four people, four angles, four standpoints, four different lines of sight, and four different landscapes.
Zheng Boye doesn't know how his experiences will be interpreted by storytellers in teahouses and restaurants in the future,
But even from his own perspective, he feels that this must be a very interesting story, he himself wants to write the script, oh no, the script is not written like this.
Finally,
The one on the side,
Eunuch Zhao, who was not regarded as a person before,
After seeing this scene,
Was shocked, frightened, trembling and twitching,
Finally couldn't help it,
Wanting to laugh,
Stopped halfway,
Because the weather is cold in winter, and he just cut himself off, his resistance is a little weak. He has been frightened these days and tossed and turned at night, catching a cold, so after forcibly stopping the laughter, his mouth closed and his nose puffed, directly blowing out a big snot bubble.
Eunuch Zhao was immediately so frightened that he knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and covered his nose with his sleeve,
"This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die."
Fortunately,
A sneezing servant who has caught a cold did not attract the attention of the surrounding bigwigs, after all, in their eyes, servants are not considered people.
And for Eunuch Zhao himself,
He originally thought that castrating himself last month was a major event in his life experience;
As a result, he now realizes how rich and colorful the scenery on the road of life should be, and his own reproductive roots are really not worth mentioning in the face of these wonderful things.
The Regent's interest was obviously restored a lot. To be precise, he is still different from the Yan Emperor. The Yan Emperor relied on Li Liangting and Tian Wujing to clear the country and open up the border. His personal imperial authority has reached the peak of the Great Yan. He can do things and speak without restraint;
The Regent is still a little short of reigning over Great Chu, so he will still instinctively "act."
"Sister, I have to introduce this one to you, Su Mingzhe, Mr. Su, a personal disciple of Yao Shi. On the way here, Mr. Su's poem made me and Mr. Dugu drink several cups."
The Princess heard the words,
The smile on her face was even brighter.
Zheng Boye took a step forward,
First saluting the Regent,
"Su Mingzhe, the military advisor of Liang Town, Gan, greets His Royal Highness the Regent of Great Chu."
Damn it!
Eunuch Zhao's heart skipped a beat, and he was so frightened that he knelt down again. Of course, as an eunuch, no one would pay attention to whether he knelt or not.
Before, the Regent didn't state his identity, so there was no need to care about these. People like to travel in disguise;
As a smart person, there is no need to point it out;
Now that the Regent has called the Princess his sister in front of everyone, that is to say, the layer of paper has been pierced by himself.
So, the necessary rules must come up.
It's not that Zheng Boye is thinking about problems and doing things from the perspective of "Su Mingzhe" all the time, but Zheng Boye originally had this awareness.
He can lead troops and fight, and can ride a Pixiu in front of the battle and hold a knife to encourage the morale of the entire army, and can express his domineering style by hugging the Princess yesterday;
At the same time, he can also reveal his mercenary and measured side in front of bigwigs.
Yue Wumu is very respectable, but if he had to choose, Zheng Boye would still want to be Han Shizhong.
The Regent was not at all surprised that Zheng Fan saluted him. In fact, he didn't deliberately hide his identity. If he really wanted to hide it, there was no need to let the sword maker accompany him.
"In that case, Mr. Su and I are fellow apprentices."
The Princess got up and saluted Zheng Fan,
"Li Qing has met Senior Brother Su."
In fact, the Princess entered Yao Shi's school much earlier than "Su Mingzhe", but "Su Mingzhe" is an inner disciple, while the Princess is just a nominal one.
It was nothing more than Yao Shi running to Chu to travel in the beginning, wanting to get a meal ticket to eat and drink for free, so he accepted this female disciple, which is equivalent to later generations of schools pulling sponsorship.
According to the rules, inner disciples are automatically half a generation higher than outer disciples in terms of seniority, so it is right for Xiong Liqing to call "Su Mingzhe" Senior Brother.
Of course, when she called out, the smile on her face really couldn't be contained, but in the eyes of outsiders, it was probably the heartfelt joy of the Princess who was obsessed with literature seeing her senior brother from the same school.
"I have often heard Master mention Princess, Master said that Princess is intelligent and reasonable, and is a disciple that he has always kept in mind."
These are just polite words, just nice to say, but no one will take it seriously.
Qu Peiluo has been standing there, just with a smile on his face.
In Chu etiquette, newlyweds are not allowed to meet before marriage, and the emperor is before etiquette, and the emperor's order can even deprive you of your filial piety when your parents die, let alone the wedding ceremony, but there is no need to introduce and deliberately talk to get closer, you still have to bring a little taboo.
"Sister, you can rest in the house first, I came from Zhou County, I only drank two sips of wine on the way, and now I'm a little hungry."
Qu Peiluo immediately said: "This minister will go and prepare."
The Regent pointed at Zheng Fan and said:
"Mr. Su, will you come too?"
Zheng Fan immediately said:
"I dare not disobey."
…
Dinner did not start as early as expected.
Zheng Fan drank tea in a side hall in the inner courtyard for almost half an hour before Eunuch Zhao came to remind him that it was time to eat.
Presumably, during this time, the Regent should have taken the time to meet Qu Peiluo's two uncles separately.
It is true that Qu Peiluo is the eldest son of Qu Tiannan, and the upcoming marriage is almost certain that Qu Peiluo is the future head of the Qu family, which is also beyond doubt.
After all, how could the Regent's驸马 not sit in the position of the head of the family?
But now, the affairs of the Qu family are mostly taken care of by Qu Tiannan's two younger brothers, which is also what it should be. Qu Peiluo is still young after all, and he does need two elders to help him at this time.
Therefore, it is still necessary for both parties to talk about the affairs of the Qu family and the Qingluan Army, including the affairs of the court below.
The Regent has always given full respect to the Qu family, a large family that has stood behind him and supported him from the beginning.
"Mr. Su, dinner is ready."
Eunuch Zhao said with a smile.
Zheng Fan nodded and said, "Please lead the way, Eunuch."
"Mr. Su, please."
Eunuch Zhao walked ahead, Zheng Fan followed behind, and then Eunuch Zhao stopped at the door, half-bowing:
"Mr. Su, please."
"Um."
The moment Zheng Fan went in, Eunuch Zhao raised his head and met Zheng Fan's eyes, and then the two tacitly withdrew their eyes.
Su Mingzhe,
Mr. Su,
Eunuch Zhao felt,
This identity does not seem to be the real trump card of this terrible man.
But he didn't have the slightest thought of informing, even though the Regent of Chu was sitting inside.
Because Eunuch Zhao knew that once any scandal occurred in the royal family, his eunuch, no matter whether he reported it or exposed it, would not escape the fate of being silenced in the end;
What's more, no matter how big the scandal is, the Princess is still the Princess, and she and the Regent are siblings. How would her own brother treat his sister?
What kind of person is he to the Regent?
Eunuch Zhao knew that he was already on the bus. At this time, let alone jumping off the bus, even admiring the scenery along the road was a sin.
He is not qualified to be fickle and think about everything,
Otherwise, he would be really sorry for the cut-off reproductive roots!
…
The Regent sits in the first seat, which is indisputable.
The sword maker, Zheng Fan, and Chen Daxia sit on the Regent's right hand, while Qu Peiluo and his two uncles sit on the left hand.
It is not a large table of dishes, but sitting on the mat, one small table per person.
During the banquet,
The Regent recited the Man Jiang Hong that Zheng Boye "recited" during the day, which made the Qu family keep applauding.
Next, Zheng Boye just accompanied them to chat, everyone only talked about romance and did not talk about military and state affairs, and the atmosphere of the dinner was fairly harmonious.
During the banquet, Qu Peiluo asked "Mr. Su" to give him a poem, which actually meant to send it out on the wedding day, and Zheng Fan immediately agreed.
Originally, Zheng Fan thought that this meal would take a long time, but Eunuch Zhao came to see him halfway through.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Princess asked this servant to ask if the meal is ready. His Highness said that she has been waiting for Mr. Su for a while. Tea has been prepared in the pavilion in the inner courtyard. Please ask Mr. Su to comment on a poem she made.
His Highness also said that she didn't want to disturb her like this, but it was too cold outside and she couldn't stand it. "
"Hehe."
The Regent was not angry when he heard the words. Their relationship as siblings was actually very good. He immediately turned his head to look at Zheng Fan.
Zheng Fan showed a look of embarrassment, revealing his reluctance.
After all, the other party is a Princess;
After all, my Great Gan is a land of etiquette and attaches importance to the defense between men and women;
After all, I am Yao Zizhan's disciple, and I have to pay attention to my reputation;
Acting,
Is actually in the details.
The Regent smiled and said:
"Please also Mr. Su to show your face. My sister usually likes poetry and articles the most, like she is possessed. I was wondering before, how could she hold her breath and wait so long;
Mr. Su, don't worry, my Great Chu has a simple folk customs and is not as strict as the Gan Kingdom. Besides, Mr. Su is Li Qing's senior brother. It is only natural for fellow students to meet and talk. "
Saying that,
The Regent looked at Qu Peiluo again,
Said:
"Peiluo, what do you think?"
The Chu people love romance and like to be free and easy. Qu Peiluo bowed his hands and said, "What Your Majesty said is very true."
The Regent immediately said: "Mr. Su, did you see that? Peiluo has agreed."
Qu Peiluo said to Zheng Fan:
"Qu is also thinking that he can get advice from Mr. Su in the future."
Now that the words have been said,
Zheng Fan can only stand up,
Gesturing to the Regent, gesturing to Qu Peiluo,
Said:
"In that case, then Su will go and take a look at Junior Sister's poetry."
Eunuch Zhao, who delivered the message, stood there with a calm expression, but he had already laughed out loud in his heart.
This pushing and giving way really looks like something.
However, after Zheng Fan passed by him, Eunuch Zhao immediately bowed and followed him out.
In fact,
It's not that the Regent doesn't know the defense between men and women, and Qu Peiluo is not completely relieved, but they all know one thing in their hearts, that is, when core members of the royal family receive the Fire Phoenix essence blood, they will also raise a demon beast by their side.
This depends on luck. Using the Fire Phoenix essence blood as a guide, wait for the demon beast to come on the edge of the swamp. The strength of the demon beast depends on your own creation.
Qu Peiluo knew that his fiancée had a cyan python guarding her.
Unless the Princess is willing,
Otherwise, anyone who dares to be unruly to the Princess will be devoured by the cyan python.
Chen Daxia saw Zheng Fan leave, and also got up to prepare to leave.
The sword maker waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, come with me, I'll fix your sword pattern again."
"Thank you, sir."
Then,
Only the Regent and the Qu family were left in the hall.
Qu Tianhua, the third uncle of Qu Peiluo, said at this time:
"If Your Majesty values that little Mr. Su, you can recruit him into Chu and use him for my Great Chu. This minister has heard that in the past two years, the Gan Kingdom's official family has changed its policy of emphasizing literature and suppressing martial arts, which has made the Gan Kingdom's literati very dissatisfied."
The Regent smiled "hehe",
Said:
"Yes, that Gan Kingdom's official family knows that he did something wrong before and wants to change it. As a result, I have to learn from him and make mistakes?"
"........" Qu Tianhua.
What is patting a horse's ass, this is the real thing.
The Regent sighed and said: "Today in the carriage, this little Mr. Su also said a sentence that I kept in my heart, that is, a scholar is useless.
They are all this age,
They are all young people like this,
But in my heart,
Ten Su Zhemings,
Are not as good as a Pingye Earl of Yan Kingdom. "
…
"Ah sneeze!"
"Did Mr. Su catch a cold?"
Inside the pavilion, the Princess smiled while pouring tea.
Zheng Boye pointed to a censer next to the tea table and said, "You have to change this habit in the future. I never use incense at home."
The Princess raised a cup of tea dregs and directly extinguished the incense.
Zheng Boye nodded with satisfaction and sat down opposite the Princess.
"Is it convenient to talk here?" Zheng Fan asked.
He knew that some strong people could hear the voices here from a long distance away.
The Princess clapped her hands,
A cyan python floated out of the pool next to the pavilion and glanced at Zheng Fan.
"With it, outsiders can't hear us talking." The Princess said confidently.
Zheng Boye nodded, relieved, and then immediately pointed at the python and said, "Is it looking down on me?"
The Princess did not deny it and said bluntly:
"A little bit."
"I have a Pixiu under my seat."
The feeling of this dialogue is very similar to discussing what car to match when discussing marriage in later generations.
The Princess heard the words and said: "I really want to see it. My Chu royal family has always had a preference for raising demon beasts."
"That's no problem, that Pixiu can be handed over to you to raise in the future."
Zheng Boye sold the Pixiu without hesitation, and also had a gift:
"By the way, there is also a cat demon and a fox spirit at home, I will also send them to you to play with."
The Princess handed Zheng Fan a cup of freshly brewed tea. Zheng Fan took it, took a sip, and immediately said:
"Daze Fragrant Tongue."
Rarely encountering a tea that he could taste, Zheng Boye pretended that he often drank it between words.
"What's going on?" the Princess asked.
Obviously he is the Pingye Earl of Yan Kingdom, he went out for a day, and when he came back, he became a disciple of Yao Shi.
As for the Man Jiang Hong that the Regent specially asked people to copy and send to the Princess before dinner, the Princess didn't find it strange, because she knew that this man had achievements in talent that were not inferior to those in the military.
Zheng Boye hesitated for a moment,
Said:
"Missed you."
The Princess opened her mouth: "I don't..."
"I know you won't believe it, I can only say, luck."
The Princess took a sip of tea and didn't seem to intend to continue to ask about this matter, but turned to say: "If..."
"Um, you say."
"If, if you go and tell my royal brother now, your real identity, and then tell my royal brother that you want to marry me, do you think my royal brother will choose you or Qu Peiluo?"
"It's late at night, the moonlight is very good, why ask such a meaningless question?"
The Princess leaned forward slightly, looked at Zheng Fan, and opened her red lips slightly, and said:
"I think, my royal brother will definitely choose you. The Qu family will be angry, but the Qu family will still swallow this breath and continue to follow the royal brother. If the Pingye Earl of the Great Yan can surrender to my Great Chu, this is really a great joy for the royal brother. At that time, Zhennan Pass and Xuehai Pass will be in our..."
Zheng Boye picked up the teacup,
"Pa!"
He poured it directly on the Princess's leaning face.
The Princess closed her eyes,
Tea dripped from her face, and there were still tea leaves left on her lips.
She was not angry, nor did she overturn the table, but just silently continued to maintain this posture.
Zheng Boye picked up a handkerchief placed next to him and began to wipe the Princess's face, wiping it very carefully and gently.
The Princess opened her mouth and said:
"It seems you don't agree."
Zheng Fan continued to wipe while saying:
"Be good, don't be naive."
After wiping,
Zheng Fan sat back,
The Princess also sat back,
The two sat facing each other.
The Princess slowly opened her mouth and said:
"Do you know that if my royal brother had spoken to me a little more gently today, I might have sold you and imprisoned your famous Pingye Earl in Chu forever."
Zheng Fan looked at the Princess very calmly,
Said:
"Then do you know that what you are saying now is depleting my affection for you."
"Affection?"
"Even if I don't like you, even if you don't have the beauty of a country, but in fact, you can be considered pretty.
If you go all out and get on my horse without saying a word and go home with me, as a man, I owe you a favor.
But every time you bargain,
Every time you fantasize,
Every time you are naive,
Is depleting this affection. "
"Depleting it, so what?"
"Then don't cry in front of my mourning hall in the future, crying and asking me why my will doesn't say that your son will inherit the throne."
The Princess heard these words,
Took a deep breath,
She was really angry at these even more shameless and even more whimsical words;
For a long time,
The Princess spat out two words:
"Bitch."
Zheng Fan reached out and picked up a piece of shortbread on the coffee table,
Took a bite,
Frowned slightly,
Said:
"This snack is too sweet, eating too much is easy to get fat."
The Princess closed her eyes, with a mocking smile on her lips,
Said:
"Are you going to say that if I get fat, you will also change your will in the future?"
"Hehe."
Zheng Boye smiled,
Said:
"No, no, no,
Blockheads only like slender figures,
You, ah,
It's better to be a little fatter. "
