King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 225

Undoubtedly, Qiqige's actions shocked everyone present.

But thinking that the other party is a foreigner, everyone present did not think it was strange, but their mood was different.

For example, Zhu Yunsheng and Yuanchun were purely curious, and just wanted to see what tricks Qiqige was up to, after all, such things are rare.

But Zhen Qin felt sad and regretted that she didn't have the courage to take the initiative to greet Zhu Jinghong.

Yang Jingting, who seldom speaks, feels Qiqige's frivolity at this moment, and secretly sighs that there is still a lot to teach her in the future.

As for Xue Baochai, who got rid of Zhu Jinghong's harassment and sat back in his seat, he was a little jealous.

"You drink with me?" Zhu Jinghong said this after a while.

"That's right... I heard that Master Thirteen is the number one warrior in the Ming Dynasty, and the little girl admires him so I came here to ask for advice!"

After saying this, Qiqige filled a glass for herself, and at the same time looked at Zhu Jinghong who was surprised.

"Haha...Okay, I'll have a drink with you!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Jinghong glanced at Baochai who rejected him, and said: "It seems... the girl is a hero among women!"

Hearing these seemingly pointed words, Baochai unconsciously turned her head to meet Yang Jingting's gaze.

At this moment, Yang Jingting also had complicated eyes, with an indescribable feeling in her heart.

When she first arrived in the palace, she was wary of everything, so she didn't have any feelings for men and women, even though she knew the purpose of her aunt calling her into the palace.

But now that he has stayed in the palace for a long time, and Zhu Jinghong often goes to the princess' bedroom, Yang Jingting's mentality has changed during the contact.

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl is just at the beginning of her love affair, so she naturally hopes to get Zhu Jinghong's attention, after all, normally speaking, this will be her future husband.

However, the problem is that every time Zhu Jinghong goes to Kunning Palace, he puts all his attention on Baochai, which makes her feel very uncomfortable.

This kind of thinking surprised her very much, and sometimes she would ask herself, where did the tutoring and etiquette education go in these years.

"Come... let's have a toast!" Zhu Jinghong clinked glasses with Qiqige.

The two drank it all in one gulp, and suddenly became heroic.

"Master Thirteen, I heard that you are the number one warrior in Ming Dynasty?"

This is the second time Qiqige said this, and Zhu Jinghong couldn't help asking in doubt: "Who told you this?"

Before Qiqige could reply, Zhen Qin stood up and said excitedly: "I, I... I said it, who doesn't know that Lord Thirteen is the champion of the three armies!"

"Understood, you sit down first!"

Zhu Jinghong's reaction was mediocre, which made Zhen Qin unavoidably discouraged. Could it be that he wasn't boasting well enough?It seems that I will prepare carefully next time.

"There are hundreds of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty. I don't know how many heroes there are. I don't dare to be called the number one warrior!" Zhu Jinghong said with a smile.

Seeing Zhu Jinghong "confessed", Qi Qige couldn't help feeling contemptuous. She already thought that the person in front of her had no real ability, and it was probably a boast from the people below.

"Even if he's not number one, Lord Thirteen is also very good at bowing horses? Isn't he skilled in riding and archery?"

Hearing Qiqige's contempt, Zhu Jinghong didn't take it seriously, he wouldn't be angry with her.

"good!"

But Qiqige said: "Since Master Thirteen is praised by so many people, the little girl would like to ask for advice!"

"You? Ask me for advice?"

At this moment, Zhu Jinghong finally stopped in Bengbu, with a smile on his face.

Qiqige also grew up on horseback, and was raised as a man since she was a child. She is really good at bowing and horses, so she wants to challenge Zhu Jinghong.

"Master Thirteen, don't you dare?"

To be honest, Qiqige's words were too bold, but fortunately Zhu Jinghong was open-minded and didn't take it seriously.

"You are too bad. If I compare with you, I will be ridiculed. If you really want to compete... find the strongest person in Junggar!"

After saying that, Zhu Jinghong turned around and put the wine jar in his hand back on the table.

"We tribal warriors, it doesn't matter how serious you are, I'm afraid you will hurt the thirteenth master!"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Jinghong smiled, then pinched the corner of the table, and broke the wood, and there was a crisp "bang" sound on the scene.

An expert in the way, Qiqige knows just this hand that he has underestimated the Thirteenth Master. Few people in the world can do such a terrifying strength.

As for Baochai Yuanchun and others, they were not too surprised by this, because they knew how fierce Zhu Jinghong was.

Looking at Qiqige with a sluggish expression, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "I'm also afraid of hurting them!"

Turning around, Zhu Jinghong returned to his seat, ignoring Qi Qige who was standing still, and started talking to his two nephews.

"Uncle Thirteen, you are really amazing!"

"Uncle Thirteen, how did you do it?"

Picking up the dishes and putting them into his mouth, Zhu Jinghong smiled and said, "Want to learn? I'll teach you!"

In this way, after the prince was drunk and helped down, everyone talked for a while before leaving.

Seeing that Zhu Yunsheng was about to leave, Zhu Jinghong followed suit, and the two brothers and sisters walked out of the East Palace together.

At this moment, night had fallen, and lanterns were lit on both sides of the palace road, and the eunuch who led the way was holding the lights, so the road would not be unclear.

Originally, Zhu Yunsheng could take a sedan chair, but she liked the feeling of freedom, so she chose to walk back to the palace.

Walking beside him, feeling that his sister was depressed, Zhu Jinghong could only ask, "Sister...are you having fun today?"

Zhu Yunsheng shook her head, but her expression betrayed herself.

"Then why are you unhappy?"

Stopping, Zhu Yunsheng looked at his elder brother beside him, and said with a disappointed face: "Brother Thirteen, you will be leaving the palace in a few months, and it will be rare for us to see each other in the future!"

Zhu Jinghong didn't expect that his words would make the little girl so worried. It seems that the little girl is really reluctant to bear herself.

Unexpectedly, at the next moment, Zhu Yunsheng continued: "From now on... who will take me around!"

Zhu Jinghong had no choice but to swallow all the words he had prepared to comfort him at this moment, and at the same time secretly thought that he was thinking too much.

"Sanmei, such a big palace is not enough for you to play with?" Zhu Jinghong said with a sneer.

"Although the imperial palace is big, I have visited it all. I haven't been to Xiyuan a few times, and I haven't been to Shanglinyuan even once!"

"Brother Thirteen, I'm so pitiful... Although you are a princess, you can't go anywhere!"

Hearing Zhu Yunsheng crying miserably, Zhu Jinghong always felt that she had other plans, so he didn't say a word at all.

Seeing that the elder brother didn't speak, Zhu Yunsheng had no choice but to say: "Brother Thirteen, tell yourself... how has my sister treated you these years?"

Picking his ears, Zhu Jinghong felt familiar.

"Third Sister, if you have something to say, just speak up!"

"Brother Thirteen, you are about to leave the palace to start a mansion. Before that... can you take me to Shanglin Garden for a stroll?"

Compared to Xiyuan, Shanglinyuan is just outside the imperial city, and taking Zhu Yunsheng there is a great risk.

It's not about his personal safety, but that Zhu Jinghong is likely to receive the court rod, and the old man in Qianqing Palace is very hard-hearted.

"Third Sister, you are embarrassing me!" Zhu Jinghong tactfully wanted to refuse.

"You and my brother and sister are so affectionate that you can't even agree to such a thing?"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yunsheng said with deep meaning: "Then from now on... we brothers and sisters should not meet each other, anyway, we are already so estranged!"

"Sister Bao, you say yes!"

Watching the performance of the two brothers and sisters, Baochai originally thought it was very interesting, but who knew that she was also dragged into the water.

"Princess, is Thirteenth Lord a heartless person, I think he will help you achieve your wish!" Baochai said this in a flattering way.

I only heard Zhu Jinghong say: "Miss Xue is right, how can such a good brother like me not satisfy my sister's wish!"

Zhu Jinghong looked at Baochai and said this, and immediately made the latter turn his head to the side, and cursed "Deng Tuzi" in his heart.
