Jinyi Night Walk

Chapter 1016 Kidnapping

"Come here, let me see, what jewelry did you choose?"

When Xia Xun returned to her residence, she saw Su Ying and Tang Sai'er talking and laughing in front of the vanity mirror. The bed was covered with gems and pearls, the jewels were shining brightly.

Su Ying stood up slowly and said with a smile, "You're back!"

But Tang Sai'er hid behind Su Ying in a swish.

In this day and age, unmarried girls are not allowed to use rouge and gouache, and rarely use jewelry on their heads. Only married people can wear jewelry and use face powder. Tang Saier also knows such rules. She is wearing jewelry at this time, so she is a little ashamed See Xia Xun.

Xia Xun didn't care about these things, Su Ying was born as a pirate, so she didn't pay much attention to these things, Xia Xun smiled and said, "Why are you still hiding, let me see." Su Ying smiled and pulled Tang Sai'er from behind. Pulled out and pushed forward.

Tang Sai'er was dizzy and didn't dare to look up. She only held her skirt and walked gracefully to Xia Xun's side, bowing her head and hanging her neck, looking cute.

Xia Xun said with a smile: "Don't be so petty, come on, raise your head, let me have a look."

Tang Sai'er bit Chun, then raised her head shyly.

There are two shiny pearls on the helix, the pearls are not big, a bit close to the shape of a drop, and the top is a silver chain clip, which is lightly stuck on the two earlobes.

I only wore this pair of earrings, without other pearls or yuhua, but it set off a clean face without makeup, which was radiant, tender and white, beautiful and exquisite.

Xia Xun smiled and said, "Okay, very beautiful!"

When Xia Xun boasted, Tang Sai'er felt embarrassed, his face was dizzy, and his eyes were shining.That dimple is like a flower, and there is a bit of youthfulness and immaturity in the charm, which is especially exciting.

Xia Xun is a person who has been in the sea, and his wives and concubines are all excellent in appearance, figure, charm and temperament. He has seen all kinds of stunning girls and charming beauties, and he is not surprised at all. The little doll during the war in Luan Dezhou has grown into a graceful girl now.

Time shapes the miracle of life.

"Brother Tang, if you could have seen your precious daughter grow so beautiful back then, I wonder if you would have given up rebelling for her..."

Xia Xun sighed, and asked again: "I just saw that you like that plate of pearls, don't you put them on and let me have a look?"

Tang Sai'er said: "The beads of that necklace are round and round. People just like to look at them, but they don't like to wear them."

Xia Xun thought about it too, for a young girl with cardamom, if she put such a pair of bead chains on her neck, the jewels would not look good, but would be vulgar.

Xia Xun praised a few more words, and Tang Sai'er left happily.

The room door was closed, Xia Xun turned to look at Su Ying again, Su Ying smiled at him, she looked like the pearl Tang Sai'er said just now—beads are round and mellow.

Xia Xun glanced over and saw that Su Ying was not wearing any jewelry, so she couldn't help asking: "Why, no one you like?"

Su Ying smiled and sighed, "I'm almost an old woman, what jewelry should I wear? Sigh, I don't know if I don't look at it. When I saw Sai'er, I realized that I was really old..."

In Su Ying's tone, there was a kind of helplessness that was fading away.

"What's old? The most important thing is that you don't accept being old. If your heart is old, then you are really old. Come, let me put it on for you to see!"

Xia Xun picked up the string of pearls on the table, and gently wrapped them around Su Ying's neck, one lap, two laps, three laps...

After buttoning it up, with a light hand, the pearl lined up between her necks.

Su Ying looked in the mirror, the more she looked at it, the more awkward she felt, she couldn't help saying: "This string of beads is too long, it looks really nice in the box, but it's ugly to wear, take it off soon!" Take off the necklace.

Xia Xun said: "No, there's nothing wrong with the beads, it's because you're wearing them wrong."

Su Ying was startled, and said: "Isn't it right? Isn't the necklace just like this? What else?"

Xia Xun said with a smile: "Of course it's right to wear it like this, but... I just realized that this string of beads is not worn like this. It is not meant to be worn for outsiders to appreciate."

As Xia Xun said, he couldn't help saying that he went to Su Ying's outer clothes.

The ing in the mirror created an attractive ravine, and the three discs of pearls hung in front of the chest, and the round pearl at the top was sandwiched in the ravine.

The bright pearl emits soft light between the snowy peaks and ravines, and the lustrous pearl reflects the plump breasts. I don't know whether it is the luster of the pearls that adds luster to the crisp breasts, or the plump breasts that add luster to the pearls. beauty.

It was a complete fit, subtle and charming, warm and soft with a kind of rouyu youhuo.

Su Ying looked at herself in the mirror, feeling a little bewildered, and her eyes gradually became foggy.

Among Xia Xun's wives and concubines, she was the oldest, and people at that time were patriarchal. This is certainly a woman's nature to love beauty, and it is also a hidden worry about losing Xia Xun's favor.

At this time, looking at her strange beauty in the mirror, she was moved spontaneously.

Don't let every beautiful time slip away from her fingers, but how long can she look at this magnificence?

Faint tears...

Xia Xun seemed to know what was worrying in her heart, so she gently kissed her neck, and said softly: "Silly girl, think so much, people will always get old, and I will be the same when you get old. One day, you and I will both be gray-haired, and our grandchildren and great-grandchildren will be playing under our knees, that is another kind of happiness."

Su Ying couldn't help holding Xia Xun's hand, and the two snuggled together quietly.

At this time, only each other's heartbeats, and the sound of the waves outside the window seemed to have disappeared...

"My lord, the Prince of Ceylon has brought a list to ask for 50 boxes of musk, [-] pieces of silk, [-] pieces of silk, [-] boxes of porcelain, [-] boxes of camphor, and [-] copper coins. It is said that Eunuch Zheng He promised to give the reward to the country. Mr. Zhang Xitong dare not make a decision, he is dragging Prince Ceylon, asking me to ask the prince to be the lord!"

It was a civil servant named Du Bing who came with the ship.Few officials in the court did not know Xia Xun, so they did not deliberately conceal Xia Xun's identity from them.

Suddenly encountering such a thing, Zhang Xitong had never had such experience before, so he couldn't help panicking. If he agreed, he had never seen such a generous reward for any country with such a large amount of goods all the way.

If you don't agree, if this is really what Zheng He promised, but here refuses to pay, then Daming's face will be thrown to the ends of the earth.In desperation, Zhang Xitong had no choice but to ask Du Bing to invite Xia Xun in a hurry.

Xia Xun was having a tender relationship with his beloved wife, so Du Bing hurriedly invited them here. The two talked as they walked, seeing that Zheng He's big ship was approaching, Xia Xun understood the reason.

"Oh? Will you be accompanied by Eunuch Zheng He's handbook or people around him?"

"no!"

"Nonsense! With such a huge amount of finances, you don't even have Eunuch Zheng's handwriting, and you don't have people around Eunuch Zheng to accompany you. What else should you consider?"

Xia Xun knew there was a fraud in it as soon as he heard it. Even in the tribute trade before, Zhu Di was there to make money, not to be a boy who scattered money. These people wanted to take advantage of Daming, so they could only use the opportunity of paying tribute to get some cheap from the tribute. Zheng He's fleet came all the way, buying by themselves, if you don't sell, someone is willing to sell, how can you let you ask for prices.

Most of the rewards given to the countries along the way are weapons and weapons. This is to represent the emperor to proclaim and appease the courtiers. Can't you deliver something?

This time the tribute trade was changed to free trade, and the political purpose of Zheng He's fleet was weaker than last time, and there was no reason to reward them generously.So Xia Xun knew the news was not true as soon as he heard it.

Du Bing smiled wryly and said: "Master Zhang also thinks it's ridiculous, but the other party is a prince, with such an identity, committing fraud? It's really unbelievable, Master Zhang doesn't dare to make a conclusion, so..."

Xia Xun sneered and said, "Do you think that all the people overseas are like my kingdom in heaven? Not to mention a prince, even if the leader of a country is the leader of a bandit, it's not surprising. There used to be eight countries that claimed to be civilized. Burning, killing, looting, committing all kinds of crimes, they are even more robbers than robbers!!"

Du Bing hurriedly said: "Since that's the case, then the lower officials will inform Mr. Zhang and send them back!"

"Okay! Slow down!"

Xia Xun suddenly called him again, his face became solemn, and he said slowly: "If they have the handwritten letter from Eunuch Zheng, I don't believe that Eunuch Zheng promised it to them, but if they have the handwritten letter, at least it proves that Eunuch Zheng is safe and sound. Or just as a hostage. Now that there is no edict from Eunuch Zheng, I am very worried..."

Du Bing hurriedly asked, "What is the Duke worried about?"

Xia Xun said in a deep voice: "I'm worried... Eunuch Zheng has encountered an accident!"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Is Senac back?"

"Not yet, Your Majesty!"

This is already the sixth time that Ariel Kunel has asked his court chief, and the answer he got is still that he has not returned.

Zheng He smiled and said to Alekunaier: "Your Majesty, the imperial envoy is too drunk, so the banquet is over. I am very grateful to the king for your hospitality. The imperial envoy should return to the ship..."

Alie Kunier, who was whispering to the chief of the court, heard Zheng He's words relayed by the interpreter, quickly turned her head and said haha: "Master Zheng He, please don't worry, this king is very hospitable, you should come here once in a while. I need to drink a few more glasses. If it's too late, just stay in the palace, don't worry, don't worry!"

Suddenly, a court warrior rushed over and leaned into Alekunai'er's ear and said, "Your Majesty, the Ming fleet sent someone to pick up their imperial envoy back!"

Alie Kunier was startled, and said, "Why are their people here to pick up the imperial envoy, and the prince hasn't come back yet?"

The samurai said: "The people of the Ming fleet said that His Royal Highness is a guest on the ship. He is a little drunk because of the joy of the banquet. He is drinking tea on the ship to sober up and enjoy singing and dancing. He also said that His Majesty the King will send the imperial envoy back. Your Royal Highness is back!"
