Daiyu is an extremely smart girl, but at the same time her character is also extremely sensitive. When it comes to Jia Cong, after hearing these words of the Supreme Emperor, her heart was like a heavy hammer and she fell into panic.
His little face was pale and without a trace of blood, and he was biting his lip tightly, never lowering his head, just staring blankly at the Supreme Emperor.
"Girl Lin, what if Jia Cong is also willing to be my grandson-in-law?"
"He will not!"
Daiyu said these three words categorically, as if to cheer herself up. She clenched her hands in her sleeves and raised her little face to look firmly into the eyes of the Supreme Emperor.
The old man pretended to be furious and snorted coldly: "That's not necessarily the case. My granddaughter is a golden branch and a jade leaf. Are you trying to steal my grandson's husband from me?"
The saint was angry and shed thousands of blood...
Well, Daiyu was not afraid at all. Instead, she was inspired to fight. Like an angry bird, she retorted: "Isn't it true that the saint is trying to steal the husband of a common girl?"
"Hey, you little girl, you have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth..."
The old man's bad taste became more and more intense, and he chuckled: "That's right, as the Supreme Emperor of Great Xia, I really shouldn't argue with this little girl like you."
Dai Yu was just about to take a breath, but she heard the Supreme Emperor suddenly say something else: "I remember that Jia Cong had an agreement with your father Lin Hai. He wanted to have a roll call at the Golden Palace, and if he passed the examination as the best man, he would go to the Lin family to marry you, right?"
"yes."
Daiyu's heart skipped a beat, and she nodded truthfully.
"That's just right. A gentleman's promise is very important. Since he said that he will pass the exam to be a prostitute and come to your house to marry him, how about I make a bet with you, a little girl? If Jia Cong can pass the exam as a prostitute, then I will Let the emperor marry you. If you fail the exam, you will be my grandson-in-law, and Jia Cong will be my grandson-in-law."
Dai Quan, who was waiting on the side, could hardly stand it anymore. What happened to the saint today that he insisted on embarrassing the girl of the Lin family?
Daiyu shook her head: "No bet. Brother Cong is my daughter's future husband. He is a human being, not a cat or dog. How can he be used as a bet?"
The old man waved his hand: "Okay, it's settled. My dear friend, come and be a witness. I will high-five and swear an oath to Lin Yatou today..."
"My daughter is a little tired today. I would like to ask the saint to forgive me. My daughter, please leave!"
When Daiyu saw the Supreme Emperor extending his palm, she immediately curtsied like a frightened little rabbit and trotted out of the house.
"This girl can run pretty fast!"
The more the old man thought about it, the more interesting it became, and he couldn't help laughing.
The nerves on Dai Quan's face twitched, and he asked doubtfully: "Why are you embarrassing the girl of the Lin family today? Some time ago, you praised the girl of the Lin family for being knowledgeable, well-behaved, and knowledgeable. If the Jia family has this girl, she should be a member of the Jia family." Blessing."
"You don't understand. Jia Xiaosan is good at everything, but he has a very out-of-control temper. Just like Lao Shisan, he is very playful. He has been studying for a year and can't even recite four books. If I don't push it, when will I be able to do it? Did you see his roll call at the Golden Palace?"
Besides, I haven't been busy lately. Isn't it normal to entertain my children?
Of course, I won’t tell anyone the reason.
The old man sighed solemnly: "Jia Congsheng and Su Hui will not be limited to being warriors who only know how to fight in the future. Neither I nor the emperor want him to be Hong'er's right-hand man. He will be handsome when he goes out, and he will be good when he goes in." Prime Minister, Jia Cong is the most suitable candidate."
"Master Saint, you have tricked me!!!"
Jia Cong almost cried because the source of Sister Lin's cramming teaching these past two days was here.
He took the old man's hand and was about to walk out, but a big hand pressed down on the top of his head: "Why are you so anxious? With Lin's intelligence, how could she not understand that I am teasing her?"
The old man held down the anxious Jia Cong and rubbed his head with his big hands.
Jia Cong muttered in a low voice: "Sister Lin also forced me to study and practice calligraphy. Don't you know? I have memorized four books in the past two days. The calligraphy practice alone has almost caught up with what I learned in the previous two months." Already."
Snapped!
Hit on the head
a slap.
The old man hates that iron cannot be made into steel: "You are a worthless thing, you only know how to play! Look at Lin Yatou, she is already familiar with the classics and history collection when she is just a little old. Her handwriting is already like Lin Hai's style, and you, you can write so well Words are like dogs crawling."
Jia Cong squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, not daring to refute.
Of course, he couldn't refute it. Sister Lin was a flower fairy, a fairy!
He was enlightened at the age of three. He was proficient in the four books at the age of six. By the age of nine, he had read through a room full of books. Nowadays, let alone the scholar examination, he is very likely to be on the list even in the provincial examination.
He is a layman who has gained the reputation of a Suhui prodigy by standing on the shoulders of giants based on his past life memories. Can he compare with Sister Lin?
The Supreme Emperor became angry when he saw the little fat man squatting on the ground silently. How could a good person be so unmotivated?
He gently kicked his ass: "You, you, sent me to send Lin Yatou far away, why don't you go back and study hard. You can take the test tomorrow. If you don't become famous, I will kill you." Take off your clothes and hang them at the city gate!"
"Brother Cong, will you leave me and marry the princess?"
Jia Cong leaned forward, the tip of his nose touching Daiyu's ear.
Daiyu smelled so good that Jia Cong was a little crazy.
Just listen to Jia Cong whisper: "Sister Lin, don't worry, even if the King of Heaven comes, I will only marry you as my wife!"
Daiyu felt a warmth coming from her ears, and her whole body was almost cooked. Her pretty face was flushed and her neck was also feeling hot.
She wanted to avoid the warm breath in her ears, but Jia Cong moved forward again. With a clang, Zicuckoo, who was waiting outside, opened a corner of the curtain and looked inside. In an instant, he lowered the curtain again and hid with a blushing face. Go outside and hold the door of the house tightly.
"Sister Zijuan, I heard something falling inside..."
Xueyan also heard the noise, and just as he was about to go in, Zijuan grabbed him and said hesitantly: "It's okay, it's okay. It's just that the third master accidentally hit the chair. It's okay. The girl is teaching the third master to read. Let's keep watch." Don’t let anyone disturb you at the door.”
read?
Just think of it as reading.
Daiyu and Jia Cong, who were lying softly, hugged each other, their lips gently touched each other, and their eyes met.
Jia Cong wanted to explain that it was just an accident, but when he looked at Daiyu's dazed eyes, his heart skipped a beat and he held her tightly in his arms.
He was as gentle as jade, and he even took the initiative to kiss her...
"You... are a scumbag!"
"Call me husband!"
"lecher!"
"Madam, call me husband!"
"lecher!"
Daiyu was ashamed and angry, and said angrily: "Let me go quickly."
The more she struggled, the tighter Jia Cong held her.
How could Jia Cong let this great opportunity pass by so easily? He hugged her tightly, put his nose to Daiyu's beautiful neck, and said dreamily: "Sister Lin smells so good, let me smell it."
boom!
Daiyu only felt her neck being hit by the hot breath coming from Jia Cong's mouth and nose. Her whole body softened a bit, and after a few struggles, there was no movement.
Jia Cong noticed something strange and looked up. Daiyu's face turned red with shame and she closed her eyes tightly...
Um?
Daiyu's long eyelashes moved slightly, and she opened her eyes secretly. Seeing Jia Cong staring at her in concentration, she quickly closed her eyes again, lowered her head and rubbed against Jia Cong's chest.
Jia Cong stared blankly at Daiyu, who had her head buried in his chest, and laughed innocently.
The two of them just lay on the couch, hugging each other.
Daiyu could hear Jia Cong's heartbeat slowing down from the rapid pace at the beginning.
Plop, plop, plop...
"Brother Cong, am I too domineering?"
Daiyu's voice was muffled, and Jia Cong couldn't hear her clearly for a while.
"Actually, I know what the saint said was just to tease me, but I still forced you to study and practice calligraphy. I said I was worried about the gambling situation the saint said, but in fact it was my unwillingness to cause trouble.
That’s all. "
At this point, Daiyu was like a kitten, rubbing her head against Jia Cong's chin: "Then you told dad that you wanted to pass the imperial examination and come to Lin's house to marry me. The saint's words clearly meant that he was not optimistic about your ability to win the Golden Palace. Roll call, I got angry at that time, and I wanted you to study hard, and roll call in the Golden Palace. I didn't explain it clearly to you, but forced you to study and practice calligraphy. I felt that I was too overbearing!"
"I'm very happy!"
"What?"
Daiyu raised her head and met Jia Cong, who was staring down at her with a silly smile.
Jia Cong touched Daiyu's smooth forehead with his forehead, and repeated with a smile: "I'm so happy!"
Daiyu's eyebrows suddenly curved, her mouth took the initiative to move to Jia Cong's lips, and touched him lightly.
They broke apart at the first touch, and then buried her face into Jia Cong's chest again like an ostrich, still red.
Jia Cong was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and whispered in Daiyu's ear: "I haven't tasted the taste of Sister Lin's lips yet. This doesn't count. Let's start over..."
It was unprecedented for Daiyu to take the initiative. She was so embarrassed that she couldn't agree to it.
No matter how much Jia Cong behaved, Daiyu just grabbed Jia Cong's skirt and buried herself in her chest without saying a word.
The two were fighting and fussing on the couch for a long time. Zicuckoo, who was guarding outside the door, listened to the movement inside and remembered the scene she had just seen, and her whole body began to turn red.
Xueyan didn't know why, and thought Zijuan was sick, and was a little worried.
"Sister Zijuan, are you sick? Why is your face so red?"
Zijuan was shy and didn't know how to answer, so she could only hesitate and said casually: "I was staying in the house just now. The stove was too hot and it was a bit stuffy..."
"Really? Then I'll go in and put down the fire..."
As she was about to go in, Zijuan quickly grabbed her and said with a wry smile: "No, no, it's hard for Third Master to settle down and study, so don't disturb her."
Plop, clang...
Xueyan listened to the rolling sound coming from inside, as well as the vague exclamations and playfulness, and muttered in confusion: "Why do I feel that the girl is playing around with the third master, not like studying and studying."
Zicuckoo thought about it for a long time before she faintly replied: "Learning does not necessarily mean learning from books!"
The first snow of the winter in the capital had fallen for three days in a row. The emperor was slightly ill, and all the government orders were issued by the fourth prince as the crown prince instead of Zhu Pi.
On the orders of the Crown Prince, the Ministry of Household Affairs distributed rice, grain, cloth and silk, and went out of the capital to help the orphans, the elderly and the weak.
No one from the yamen of the prefectures and counties in Gyeonggi Province dared to defy the rules. In just two days, under the auspices of the yamen of the prefectures and counties, warehouses were opened to release grain and cook porridge for relief.
The regular relief work this winter has been more rapid and effective than the snow disaster relief work from the end of last winter to the spring. The censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate who made overt and covert inspections were filled with emotion. The conduct of our officials has skyrocketed in less than a year. ...ap.
"His Highness's idea is a good one. I didn't expect that the civil and military officials in this court would be afraid of Your Highness helping them become famous all over the world."
Xia Shouzhong packed up the memorials on the table one by one and couldn't help laughing.
Liu Hong put down the pen in his hand and stretched.
"They are not afraid of beheading. Starting from the previous dynasty, it has been their usual tactic to ask for fame. In this case, I will follow their wishes. If they want fame, I will help them!"
Pfft...
Xia Shouzhong couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the scene in Fengtian Palace a few days ago. His Highness the Fourth Highness's coquettish maneuvers directly confused the famous cabinet scholar Qi Bohan.
Of course, it also shocked the ministers. No, the number of memorials sent to Qinzheng Palace by the cabinet and the General Affairs Department was greatly reduced.
In the past, the troubles of reporting the weather, reporting the flowering period, and scolding the mother for fighting have been basically eliminated, and the efficiency of the central government in handling government affairs has obviously increased several times.
Liu Hong also smiled heartily. When he heard Brother Cong say that these civil and military ministers value reputation, now it seems that the trick of "becoming famous all over the world" is much more effective than chopping off the head with a wooden board.
Xia Shouzhong took out a book from the pile of memorials, opened it and placed it in front of Liu Hong.
Front: "Your Highness, this year's autumn hunting... Well, the ritual schedule for the winter hunting has been arranged. The Ministry of Rites came to ask whether the Tatar Khan and the Wala Khan sent envoys together with the envoys from the vassal states such as Goryeo. See you at Tienwang Mountain."
"Tobuhua had already sent people to Beijing a long time ago, hoping to trade with China. The Tatars have been relatively docile in the past two years, and now they have requests from China. It is normal for him to send people to visit again. This contract Why would Bihe send someone here? Is there any secret report from the Dragon Guard?"
Liu Hong read through it carefully, and found out that the memorial from the Ministry of Rites said that Wala Khan had sent envoys to the capital together, and everyone had moved into the Sifang Pavilion, but the credentials had not yet been submitted.
The Tatar envoy submitted his credentials early. In addition to greeting His Majesty the Emperor, he once again mentioned the reopening of mutual markets.
Xia Shouzhong shook his head: "The old slave also asked Governor Cao. Governor Cao said that the hidden pile on the Wala side was robbed the year before last. The newly sent people have not spread their eyes yet and have not found out any important news. Do you want it? Is this old slave going to urge me again?"
"No..."
Liu Hong folded the memorial and rubbed his aching forehead.
Since ancient times, spies have been in trouble, and the Dragon Guards have been doing the job of adding blood to the sword, not to mention the secret guards who have gone to foreign lands for their country and are in anonymity and are always in crisis.
"We are sitting in a comfortable place in the capital, and we can't imagine the hardships of those secret guards. We just let the secret guards do what they want."
Xia Shouzhong bowed his promise and was about to leave to arrange lunch, but he heard Liu Hong say: "Tomorrow is Master Wei's birthday. Xia Daban went to Longshou Palace to take out the emperor's grandfather's jade sculpture of the Antarctic Immortal and wrap it up. Let's I’ll go to Wei Mansion tomorrow to celebrate my birthday.”
"Ah? That jade sculpture is a tribute to the Celestial Master Monastery at Longhu Mountain. It is said that it is a divine object that has been blessed on the golden dome. It is the saint's heart's love."
Xia Shouzhong almost fell to his knees, but Liu Hong blinked and said with a smile: "Isn't the love of the emperor's grandfather my eldest grandson? For his eldest grandson, if he exchanges everything for a good teacher, the emperor's grandfather will definitely my pleasure!"
