Chapter 10
Xiao Ji only asked that question in a moment of confusion, and he regretted it after asking it.
He knew it wouldn't work. Because although the original owner was not a womanizer and had several same-sex friends who had similar interests and were close enough to sleep with each other, he had liked Cui Lingyan for too many years, done too many things for her, and there were too many people around him who knew about it. In this case, if he says that he actually likes men, no one will believe him.
Unless he can immediately find someone who is willing to cooperate with him in acting and who can convince everyone. But even if he could find such a person, he couldn't pretend to like him - just thinking that that person was a big man like him, he felt chills all over and wanted to kick him.
Well, he’s not against homosexuality, but it’s really not okay for him to have sex on his own.
Therefore, we still have to think of other ways.
"Or... or you just say that you have settled it with the master, and the master said that you should not get married too early?"
Although he didn't know why his prince suddenly didn't like the third girl of the Cui family and didn't want to get married, Qianliu saw that his master was so troubled that he couldn't speak at all, so after he came to his senses, he dutifully helped him think of a move. Son.
Having received socialist education since childhood, Xiao Ji had no concept of fortune telling in his mind, so Xiao Ji, who had never thought about it, was stunned and thought it was a good idea.
But, what master’s words can deceive the emperor?
He raised his head and stared at the moon that was half covered by the clouds and thought for a while, and soon thought of a person: Master Ming Ran, the abbot of Dahuang'en Temple in the east of the city.
Buddhism and Taoism are popular nowadays, and many temples and Taoist temples are built in Beijing. The most famous temple among them is the Dahuangen Temple located in the east of the capital.
The abbot of Dahuang'en Temple is an eminent monk with a well-known dharma title. It is said that he once encountered a poor young man who was planting rice during his travels many years ago. Seeing that the young man was full of heaven and extraordinary in appearance, and there seemed to be purple energy brewing between his eyebrows, he counted with his fingers and found out that this young man actually had "golden scales" It is not an object in the pond, but one day a dragon will be in the sky." The emperor's destiny.
Master Mingran was greatly surprised and immediately gave the young man a silver bowl to help him escape the famine that year.
Fifteen years later, the young man ascended the throne and established the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Yes, that poor boy was the young emperor. After he ascended the throne, he ordered people to build Dahuang'en Temple as a temple for the royal family. He also found Master Jingran, who was still traveling at that time, and asked him to come back and be the guardian of Dahuang'en Temple. Abbot.
And the silver bowl that helped him survive the disaster was also found by the emperor and enshrined in the ancestors' mourning hall. The original owner had seen it with his own eyes, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with it.
So, if Master Mingran comes forward and says that he has a strange destiny and should not get married too early, would Brother Cheap believe it?
Thinking of this, Xiao Ji was finally not so annoyed. He stood up and patted Qianliu on the shoulder, and said like a good boss who wanted to pay bonuses to his employees when the company's performance improved: "I know what to do. You have a good idea. Go back to the accounting office to get five taels of silver. This is the reward I give you."
Qianliu, who was still thinking hard, was suddenly pleasantly surprised: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Hey, it doesn’t matter if salary is harder to earn than before, as long as there are more extra rewards like this!
*
Early the next morning, Xiao Ji got up and went to Dahuang'en Temple.
But when I arrived at Dahuang'en Temple, I learned that Master Mingran had gone out to give lectures a while ago and would not be back for a few days.
Xiao Ji, who was still thinking about settling this matter today: "..."
Okay, isn't it just a few days? He will wait.
So he went back home and continued to lie down and cook salted fish.
During this period, several friends of the original owner came to see him, saying that they wanted to visit him and discuss the newly written poems with him, but Xiao Ji refused them all because of his physical discomfort.
Not to mention that he couldn't recite poetry at all, even if he could, he wouldn't have the patience to entertain these people who were completely strangers to him.
Although doing this is a bit sorry for the original owner's friends, it is normal for friends to get together and leave, and they will get used to it after a while.
Just two days later, Xiao Ji went out again - he had to go to Duke Cheng'en's Mansion to attend the full moon banquet of the young master of Duke Cheng'en's Mansion.
These days, children's full moon banquets are generally not held in a big way. However, Cheng'en Palace has a strong yin and a weak yang. There are many girls among the younger generation, but there is only one boy. It is not easy to get a boy. Naturally, I can't help but think happily. A big celebration.
This child is the old son of Duke Cheng'en and the prince's direct cousin, so his identity is even more different.
When Xiao Ji arrived, Duke Cheng'en's mansion was already filled with guests and distinguished guests. It was his first time to participate in an ancient banquet. At first, he felt a little novel, but soon the novelty turned into intolerance.
Because ancient etiquette was too complicated.
In addition to his high status and seniority, there are always people coming to greet him from the moment he enters the door, and he even feels restless during the meal...
Too tired, I slipped away.
Xiao Ji, who had completely lost his patience, put down his chopsticks, found an excuse to leave the noisy banquet, and sat down in an empty octagonal pavilion in a nearby garden.
This pavilion is hidden in the rockery of the garden, surrounded by mountains on two sides, facing the lake on one side, and a winding path on the other side. The path is surrounded by lush flowers and plants. You can't find it if you don't look for it. It is a very good place.
He thought that his ears would finally be quiet for a while, but unexpectedly, less than five minutes after he sat down, a gentle and angry female voice came from behind him: "Brother Ji, why are you here? Please call me." try to find."
Xiao Jizheng was leaning in a daze on the beauty near the lake. When he heard this, he was startled at first, and then he realized the sound...
Fuck, the original heroine Cui Lingyan! Why is she here? !
Xiao Ji's originally fine mood suddenly deteriorated. He turned his head with a bad expression, and sure enough he saw a face that was quite beautiful, but he just felt disgusted when he looked at it.
"Brother Ji, are you in a bad mood? Why does your face look so bad?"
The visitor is Cui Lingyan, the heroine of the original work. She is sixteen years old and very beautiful. There are countless beautiful words used in the original novel to describe her appearance, such as her ice-cold muscles and jade bones, her fairy-like appearance, her bright eyes and white teeth, and how she looks like a beautiful woman with a closed moon. Anyway, there are many praises. Every time the men in the article see her, they will be "astonished", "secretly excited", or even "heartbeating out of control".
But such a heartthrob setting has no effect on Xiao Ji, because he himself is very handsome, and his mother, aunt, cousin and other female family members in his previous life are also very good-looking. He has been immune to it since he was a child.
Not to mention that as soon as he saw Cui Lingyan, the things she did in the original novel would automatically appear in his mind, making him want to give her two big dicks to do evil things...
Tsk.
That is to say, he has the habit of not hitting women, otherwise he would just slap her into the lake, and she would probably never dare to come to him again.
"Brother Ji? Why don't you speak?"
Just as Xiao Ji was thinking about it, Cui Lingyan, who had not waited for his response, suddenly raised her hand and tugged on his sleeve as usual.
"???" Xiao Ji suddenly came to his senses and threw her away, his face became even more disgusting, "Who told you to touch me?! Do you know what it means to be a man and a woman but not to have sex!"
The unsuspecting Cui Lingyan lost her balance and was almost thrown to the ground. Fortunately, there was a pillar next to her, and she subconsciously supported her, so she didn't fall down in embarrassment. However, the bun she had carefully combed this morning became askew because of this, and the emerald hairpin on it was thrown off and fell to the ground.
"..."
"??!!"
Things happened so suddenly that Cui Lingyan was stunned at first. It wasn't until she saw the cracked jade hairpin falling on the ground that she suddenly came back to her senses. She looked at Xiao Ji in disbelief: "Brother Ji, you——"
"Don't call me that again, it's disgusting. Also, stay away from me from now on, and don't come near me again."
If there were other people around, Xiao Ji might pretend to be like Cui Lingyan, so as not to change his personality too much and cause unnecessary trouble. But there were only the two of them here, and he didn't have to worry about other people's reactions, so he was too lazy to argue with Cui Lingyan.
Regarding the original heroine, he didn't want to say a word to her. He just wanted to stay as far away as possible, and it was best not to have contact with her until death.
As for whether her "big change in temperament" and "falling out" without warning would make her feel sad and confused...
Oh, in the original work, when she was hanging on to the original owner in an ambiguous manner while having sex with Cui Ang and having a baby, did she consider the original owner's feelings?
Although these things will never happen again because of his arrival. But even in the past, she still liked Cui Ang while enjoying the kindness of the original owner to her with peace of mind. Therefore, even if he paid these back to her on behalf of the original owner, he didn't care whether she could bear it or not.
"You...what are you talking about?"
Cui Lingyan avoided everyone's attention and came to Xiao Ji. She originally remembered that he sent someone to her house that night to get the Nanzhu head back, and wanted to ask him about the reason. Unexpectedly, just after meeting him, before he had a chance to speak, something like this happened.
Because she was so shocked, Cui Lingyan even doubted whether she was dreaming.
But even in her dream, she never thought that one day she would see such an expression on Xiao Ji's face.
This boy who grew up with her since childhood, doted on her and protected her since childhood, was more gentle and considerate to her than her own brother, and always looked at her with a gentle smile, as if she was the most beautiful existence in the world. , as if he was a different person, he showed a cold and bored expression towards her, and even said that he wanted to break off diplomatic relations with her.
He even threw her away mercilessly and called her... called her disgusting? !
Cui Lingyan, who has always been chased and supported by others, and has never been talked about by someone of the opposite sex - especially by the opposite sex. Her head felt dizzy and her face turned red. She was originally in a good mood because of the smooth progress of her relationship with Cui Ang. It also cast a shadow in an instant.
"Brother Ji, I don't understand... what happened?" She came to her senses and bit her lip with her teeth, her beautiful eyes flashed with excessive embarrassment and grievance, "How could you... How could you do this to me? Did I do something wrong?"
If the original owner saw her like this, he would definitely be heartbroken. But Xiao Ji was not only indifferent, but also felt very unlucky.
"I just want to understand that I don't like you, and I don't want others to misunderstand our relationship anymore, so please don't get close to me again in the future."
He said it impatiently and was about to leave, but Cui Lingyan suffered such a big blow inexplicably, how could he let him leave so unclearly? She immediately dodged and blocked his way: "Ji... Okay, if you don't let me call you brother Ji, I'll just stop calling you! You said you don't like me anymore... I don't know what happened, but... I am willing to respect your wishes! But even so, you and I are cousins who grew up together. How could you cut off ties with me without even giving me a serious explanation?!"
She seemed gentle and calm, but in fact she was just a girl who had been pampered and had never been so wronged before. How could she not have arrogance and temper in her heart? So after saying this, Cui Lingyan raised her teary eyes and stared at Xiao Ji angrily. Her originally gentle tone became tough, "Anyway, you won't be allowed to leave until you speak clearly today!"
Xiao Ji: "..."
Xiao Ji originally didn't want to speak too clearly, lest she misunderstand that he was "jealous", but now seeing her confident look, he almost laughed angrily.
"Okay, you want a reason, right? The reason is the trivial matter between you and Cui Ang. I already know it."
Looking at Cui Lingyan whose face suddenly turned pale, Xiao Ji raised his eyebrows and sneered, staring at her word by word and saying, "While you are enjoying my kindness to you, giving me hope and illusion, making me unable to let you go, at the same time you are I have an affair with my brother at home...Cui Lingyan, you make me feel disgusted, that’s why I don’t want to see you again, do you understand?"
