This big fish was delivered to my doorstep just as the last rays of the sunset had completely dissipated.
On both sides of the street, shops that have not yet closed are lit with lanterns.
Among the passers-by, the number of young girls has dropped significantly. After all, no one wants to be targeted by the "all-out evil" little highness, kidnapped back to the mansion for a night of fun, and then thrown out of the door like garbage the next day.
Shen Liang has never done this before.
The reason why the people in Jincheng were so afraid was because Shen Liang was taking the blame for the bad guys from other wealthy families.
As seen by the people, Shen Liang is the number one dandy in Jinzhou, so it is natural that he should be more frivolous and more inhumane than other young men.
But they really misunderstood Shen Liang.
Shen Liang's soul traveled from the Great Xia Kingdom of Water Blue Star. He had an out-of-touch and mean-spirited personality since he was a child. However, as the king of Great Xia's special forces in his previous life, many of his ideological consciousnesses were far more lofty than those of ordinary people.
Well.
To be precise, it's not that shameless.
The beautiful night has just begun. Even though tomorrow is Jiguan Day, Shen Liang still has not given up the idea of discussing life with his two sisters, Chun Yu and Dong Xue.
It's just that tonight, he didn't take advantage of the two Baihualou top players. Instead, he spent most of his time exchanging cups with Chu Shile.
The Donglu wine produced in Jincheng was put into jugs made of jade by the madam himself, and served to the table one after another.
Within half an hour, Chu Shile, whose face was red from drunkenness and whose tongue was curled up, waved his hands and begged for mercy.
"Liang...Brother Liang, what's wrong with you today? Why are you drinking people to death?"
Shen Liang's state was not much better than Chu Shile's, but he still held on to one cup after another.
"It's okay, I just feel it coming. Drinking is like drinking water."
The moment he raised his head and downed the glass of wine, a crystal drop accumulated in the corner of his eye.
Shen Liang thought silently in his heart——
"Mom, the maids and I in the courtyard have all grown up. My brother is still practicing in the temple. Although he hasn't heard from him for many years, Shen Wanjun often sends people to visit him. It is said that he has deep Buddhist roots and is expected to become the next leader of the temple. Host. "
"The eldest sister is still wandering outside. Last month she wrote a letter saying that she went to the far north of Tongzhou and wandered around the junction of Dayan and Beihan. She scolded me about the men there who had a vulgar temperament and the wife she married back home. One of them made them unhappy and beat her in the street without any regard for human kindness, which really made her very angry."
"He's telling me to take Brother Qingpi and add three thousand Qinglong warriors to go over there and straighten out the folk customs."
"Oh yes, mother, don't worry. The eldest sister doesn't know martial arts, but she has eight hundred tricks. It's almost impossible for others to take advantage of her. Moreover, Shen Wanjun said that he would let the eldest sister go out alone, but in fact he didn't know How many chess pieces have been inserted in the secret to protect the eldest sister Zhou Quan? There is no need to say that Shen Wanjun, he indeed loves the four of us very much."
"As for the second sister, her life is more stable and worry-free. After all, she is the direct disciple of the dean of the Phoenix Academy. She has also acquired good martial arts. Coupled with the blessing of the second lady of the Jin Palace, she is the only one who can live in the imperial capital. It’s just for bullying others.”
Thinking of this, Shen Liang filled the glass with wine. This glass became the straw that broke the camel's back.
With the glass of wine in his stomach, His Highness poured it down quickly, and fell unconscious on the table.
The last thought before going to sleep——
"Mom, my son misses you."
…
The next morning.
I slept until noon, then yawned and walked out of the room.
He didn't think about how he came back from Baihua Tower last night, and he never worried about whether being drunk outside like this would give assassins who wanted to "hijack His Highness hostage to make him king" a chance.
Because this is Jinzhou Jincheng.
Right now, no one can hurt King Jin.
The beautiful maids who have been waiting outside the door all year round have already performed their duties, carrying hot water and towels. Xiaomei was the first to step forward and handed over a cup that she had changed several times, just to keep the temperature warm. Sobering tea.
"Your Highness, all the necessary items for the crown have been prepared. The prince is waiting for His Highness in the front yard."
"knew."
Shen Liang responded, and then, under the service of a team of maids led by the four maids, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, he finished washing and changing clothes in an orderly manner.
Noon.
Sitting on the top of the Chao Mountain, the carp viewing pavilion is more than ten feet away.
The tomb of Princess Jin was set up here. Where ordinary people used bricks, they were replaced with mutton-fat white jade worth one or two hundred gold. In addition to the appropriate words engraved on the stele, there was also a picture of the Five Tigers.
In the picture, the tigress is lying on the ground, holding a tiger cub in her arms. The other three slightly larger tiger cubs are playing not far away from the tigress. It is enough to show how much Princess Jin loves Shen Liang. Younger son.
The solemn crowning ceremony is not as grand and popular as others imagined.
The only people who actually reached the top of the mountain were Shen Liang himself, the protagonist of the crowning ceremony, his father Shen Wanjun, his sworn brother Xu Longyi, and the four maids responsible for delivering the incense and crowning the crown later.
The routine crowning ceremony is extremely cumbersome.
But both Shen Wanjun and Shen Liang were born to take the opposite direction. Especially Shen Wanjun, who had fought countless battles in his life, he followed a code of conduct.
That is - the strong make the rules and the weak obey the rules.
Therefore, the solemn crowning ceremony eliminates many tedious procedures, and even the number of crowns prepared is not three, but only one.
This crown is a general's crown.
After the double baptism of time and war, the general's crown that followed Shen Wanjun to conquer a vast territory is no longer as bright as new as it was at the beginning. The dark red blood stains on it that cannot be wiped off have long made it difficult to tell what the crown is. The blood of the emperor is still the blood of the supreme blood of certain sects in the world.
There was no music played, no speech by the guest of honor.
Xiaomei lit three pillars of incense and offered them to her. Shen Liang took them and inserted them in front of her mother's monument.
Then Xiaolan stepped forward under Shen Wanjun's instructions. Shen Wanjun held up the general's crown and came to Shen Liang who was kneeling in front of the monument.
"My son Shen Liang is the crown prince today."
Just eight simple words.
Shen Wanjun held the crown and walked up to Shen Liang. Shen Liang raised his head, his face no longer showing the slightest hint of cynicism.
He looked up at the great general's crown in Shen Wanjun's hand, and asked solemnly:
"Aren't you going to wait for my brother any longer?"
Shen Wanjun was not in a hurry to put it on Shen Liang, but shook his head and said:
"Your brother has not been interested in this stuff at all since he was a child. He only has Amitabha in his mind. Son, I only have you two boys. If you are not willing to accept this hat, then Dad and your uncles will kill you with their lives." Such a big business really needs to be fed to the dogs.”
Shen Liang snorted softly, and sneered as he had seen through everything:
"I'm afraid it's not just that you can't bear to part with such a big business, right?"
Shen Wanjun chuckled, his eyes full of approval and said:
"Those who are blind are saying that my youngest son, Shen Wanjun, is a dandy and useless, but let me tell you, no one smarter than my youngest son will be born in the next five hundred years! Hahaha! "
After laughing, Shen Wanjun suddenly looked stern again!
"Shen Liang, if you accept this crown, you will be responsible for the life and death of tens of thousands of people in Jinzhou. If you are afraid of being crushed to death, then dad will find other ways, and I will naturally protect you in prosperity and wealth throughout your life. "
"You! Do you dare to accept it?!"
