Heartburn
Chapter 66: Gift jade
"His Royal Highness, do you want to go in?" While hesitating, Jiang Zhuo gently stroked my shoulder and asked in a low voice.
I turned my face and met her caring eyes. I felt sore, but I was determined to give Duan Wang a bit of a face, nodded, and walked in first: "Naturally, I want to enter."
The attendant offered the gift I prepared to the housekeeper of the Duan Palace. The middle-aged woman with an old scar in the corner of her eye smiled at me kindly, and her slightly stern and serious face softened by three points: "His Royal Highness has a heart. Yes, my master has been waiting in the backyard for a long time, please come with me."
"Well, work." I think this housekeeper is more than a year old, and his temples are also stained with wind and frost, but he is very strong, with a straight back, and his whole body is more serious than the guards in my house. He was obviously in the army. An all-round talent; such a background is just a steward for King Duan. It can be seen that her house is a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. No wonder Kuang Xiqing is so jealous of her.
Followed her silently into the inner courtyard. There were strings of red lanterns hung on the corners of the porch along the road as well as the gates. The servants and waiters also put on festive dark red coats, but in this scene where there are no guests coming and going. Set off, it looks extremely deserted and desolate.
The backyard is a wide space, the layout is simple and atmospheric, more than a dozen round tables are filled with drinks and food, and in the center are a group of dancing performers and musicians-it can be seen that the king of Duan is preparing for this banquet. It had to be very diligent, but unfortunately no one came to support it.
Thinking of this, I sighed in my heart.
Under the brilliant lights, the backyard was illuminated as bright as day. I saw that King Duan was wearing a long-sleeved gown with a black gold thread. He couldn't help stroking the jasper finger on his right thumb, his face was a little gloomy, and he turned his head to face the person beside him. When she was a woman, she was indifferent, gentle and considerate.
The princess Jiang Lanyi next to her was wearing a white-bottomed silver-line pinched waist skirt, and she said helplessly to her, while stroking the back of her hand, as if she was politely persuading her.
When they saw my group of people appeared, the expressions of both of them were pleasantly surprised, especially Duan Wang, who was a little more inquiring beyond the surprise.
The two of them are black and white, and warm and hot. Both their looks and temperament complement each other. If they are not the same women, everyone will praise a match made in heaven-but I think it happens because they are both women. , Is more familiar and compatible.
It is ridiculous that the world is always pedantic, neither can let go... nor can it tolerate it.
Grasping the regret in my eyes, I walked forward to meet the gazes of the two of them, held a fist and bowed a little, but I couldn't say the word "Emperor Sister" in my mouth, so I raised a small smile and said softly. "Wang Duan, the princess...sister-in-law, I heard that there are wines in the house, and I came here to ask for a glass of wedding wine. Wouldn't the two be unwelcome?"
Duan Wang’s face was already cold when I refused to call out "Emperor Sister", but when I heard me call out "Wang Concubine's Sister-in-law", it turned from cloudy to clear. He smiled heartily and stretched out his hand and pulled it. I sat down at the main table together and poured a glass of wine for me personally: "Come here, they are all my own sisters. If you are willing to show your face, you will not be drunk with me or go home. There is no reason to refuse!"
My intention was just to be polite, to show my support without being too close. After all, Kwong Xihan was the most beloved girl in the past, and she laid my heart on Kwong Xiqing and loved this eldest sister. I don’t care. Now it’s not easy for me to take the initiative to make friends with her. If I’m too enthusiastic, I might teach others to suspect the wrongdoing. If I use this to investigate my abnormalities and question my true identity. , That's not worth the gain.
However, at this point, it was abrupt to turn my face to refuse, facing the clear blue eyes, I gritted my teeth, and had to maintain the rigid smile on my face. He drank his neck in one fell swoop.
Suddenly, a pungent scorching heat rushed from the tip of my tongue to my throat and burned all the way to my stomach. I couldn't help but cough, and tears burst into my eyes, describing the embarrassment.
Might as well as my big reaction, Duan Wang put down his wine glass in a sorrowful manner, wanting to apologize, but didn't know where to start, his outstretched hand froze in the middle, and his help-seeking gaze looked at the princess Duan next to him.
The latter gave her an irritating look, and she was full of amorous feelings, and then she was busy calling for the waiter to deliver tea, and she removed the original spirits and replaced it with a softer brew: "This wine is Ordinary people are not used to drinking the fierce sword throat that came out of the army. It is our negligence. We hope that King Ling will forgive me."
"It's okay, this wine is very good, I don't want to use it myself." I laughed self-deprecatingly, holding Jiang Zhuo's hand on my back, shook his head comfortingly at her, and saw her pursing her lips. Without saying a word, I withdrew my hand and stepped aside again. I felt sad, but I couldn't do anything more. I could only turn my head and explain to the duan king.
She probably also knew that I was very sick before, and she didn't laugh at me for it. She just pointed to the plate in front and asked me to eat more vegetable mats to cushion my belly.
After she faded away from her coldness, she was nothing more than a graceful woman. The corners of her eyes and eyebrows were filled with tenderness towards her lover, and she was as kind to me as a elder sister to a younger sister.
It's just that I feel awkward, and I can't help but feel a little guilty for her, so I can't answer her questions and demands afterwards.
The atmosphere gradually became more and more harmonious. I greeted you and drank several glasses without knowing it. Although I have changed the sweet wine with a low degree, it is still inevitable. I can't help but feel annoyed in a moment. It was the third time in recent days that I was drunk. If things go on like this, I'm afraid this just turned body will teach me corruption again.
With vigilance in my heart, and people are sober, I refused to drink more, but slowly opened the chatterbox, and reduced the frequency of drinking by chatting. Suddenly remembered something, and then brought it up half-jokingly: "Speaking of which, I don't know how the concubine and sister-in-law got married with Duan Wang?
As soon as I said this, I saw that both of them were stunned for a moment, and King Duan was embarrassed. Even the concubine Duan, who was always clear and clear, was a little uncomfortable, so I quickly changed my words: "I'm just a little bit uncomfortable. Curious, it doesn't have to be known... I have drunk too much and my brain is confused, and the two of you don't need to bother about it."
"Don't worry about it," Seeing my apology, King Duan was more embarrassed than me. He coughed a few times, put down his wine glass, and said sternly after being silent for a while, "The story between me and Lan'er is not a secret in Nanfeng. It’s okay to listen to you, I just hope you don’t feel too deviant."
"I am listening." I raised my hand and made a gesture of asking. I really want to know the story of her two at the moment.
King Duan took a sip of wine, turned his head and looked at Princess Duan with a smile, and slowly fell into the memory——
It turned out that Princess Duan Jiang Lanyi was originally the only daughter of the Rongxi Jiang family. She was from the Zanying family. After closing the door, she was abducted by traffickers and moved to Nanfeng because she was separated from her family because she was playful when she was young. Because his appearance is more beautiful than a man, he was actually sold into the Chuguan Jiaofang.
The bustard saw that she was born beautiful and well-educated. He was afraid that it was not an ordinary person, so she hid it for many years, and waited until she was sixteen years old before putting up a flower card to officially pick up guests.
It was also a destined fate. On the first day of listing, I met Shao Li, the king of Duan Xizhao, who was 18 years old. It was a gift for adults to teach the young teenagers to try and try something for fun.
Despite the hum of a group of people, Kuang Xizhao was half-pulled and half-tucked into the museum. He was impatient. When he looked around for a way to get out, he met Jiang Lanyi, who was covered in gauze on the stage, facing each other, and fell in love at first sight.
At the moment, he pointed at a distance, bluntly to be the guest of the other side.
Everyone looked at each other, but it was difficult to tell the young and energetic Duan Wang the identity of the other party. Even the bustard was stubborn. With Kuang Xizhao's cold eyes, he didn't dare to say a word, and quickly sent her to Jiang Lanyi's. In the room.
The fledgling King Duan was also a novice, and it took a while to realize that the other party was the same woman as her. He felt deceived in his heart and left immediately.
Unexpectedly, the next day, he sent his subordinates to redeem the opponent and bring them back to the house.
She was so angry that she made a joke in front of a group of colleagues, and pityed her for being humiliated by the dignified woman, so she was redeemed and placed in the mansion as a place to stay with her.
As for Jiang Lanyi, although she has been living in the dust, she loves military strategy since she was a child, and has a good heart. Since King Duan placed her in the house without paying attention to it, she didn't care about it, just begged for accommodation with the housekeeper in the backyard and borrowed some The book of war, I study all day, and constantly deduced it on the simple sand table in the yard. It was much better than in the restaurant, and it was a pleasant day.
One day, Kwong Xizhao, who had nothing to do with her free time, saw him, and she became very interested and discussed with her, but she was not her opponent. When you are eager to win, you will find time to compete with it. One comes and two, and the love grows for a long time. When you find it, it is already deep-rooted and it is difficult to get out.
After that, Jiang Lanyi joined her staff as her military adviser, and taught her to put her on the cusp of her heart, wishing to tell the world, give her a name, and thus have the opportunity to hire 50,000 soldiers and horses. The matter of decree to marry.
I listened to her whispering, as if she was on the scene, thinking about her momentary feelings-although she deliberately omitted a lot of details, only to say the general, I can also guess that she and Jiang Lanyi were determined before they fell in love with each other. There have been many twists and turns, and now that I can put aside everything and work together, I don’t know how many ups and downs I have to overcome.
For the time being, the two of them are in love with each other. Looking at myself, I still don't know Jiang Zhuo's intentions. I am afraid it is just wishful thinking. Compared with them, it is several times more difficult.
With a faint sigh, I realized that I was drinking several cups in a row. Not long after her voice fell, she poured a full glass of wine into her mouth—who would have known that a hand stretched out from the spur to block my wine glass, and without much effort, the wine glass was just He was gently and skillfully withdrawn and replaced with a warm tea cup.
I was dumbfounded, turned my head, and faced Jiang Zhuo's unsmiling profile face.
Blinking his eyes, he asked slightly dissatisfied: "What are you doing to stop me?"
——And don’t like me, why do you care about me?
Why don't you teach me to be drunk so that no one will pester you...
Thinking arrogantly, I was about to grab a glass, but saw her frowning, avoiding my hand, and fearing that I would fall forward, leaning on my side, holding my shoulder with one hand, Most of my body was in my arms.
"King Duan, her highness is too low to drink too much, so the subordinates took her back." I was in a trance as if I heard Jiang Zhuo say something, I just felt my mind was dizzy, but I was comfortable leaning against her. Very much.
Sniffing her breath, sleepiness swept through, and couldn't help but fall asleep.
In a daze, Duan Wang seemed to have returned something, but it was difficult for me to tell, and I really fell asleep.
On the second day, I didn’t feel too uncomfortable. I just woke up suddenly, my mind was still a little dizzy, and I couldn’t remember what happened later-as if it was Jiang Zhuo who brought me back, but then Duan Wang said What happened, but I don't remember very much.
He smacked his lips thirsty, and he was about to get up to pour the tea. There was a sudden strangeness in the action. When he looked down, he seemed to have something in his neck.
Unlocking the collar questioningly, he pulled out the tied red rope to see that it turned out to be a half blood-red jade.
When I took a closer look, I couldn't help being shocked-this jade jue was exactly the same as the tiger charm Kuang Xiqing received that day!
Was it a gift from King Duan when I was drunk last night?
But for no reason, why is she and me?
You know, this is not only half a piece of jade, but also 50,000 troops!
Holding this hot potato, I panicked for a while.
