The howl shook the entire Yang Mansion, and Wu Meiniang hurried from the backyard with her skirt in hand.
Entering the main hall, she saw Yang Fan sitting on the couch muttering to himself as if he had lost his soul. She couldn't help but panicked completely and quickly asked the reason.
When Yang Fan slowly explained the reason for Li Shimin's visit just now, Wu Meiniang immediately felt dumbfounded.
So he laughed angrily and said: "My husband is really frightening me. Being able to marry a princess is a good thing that will bring glory to the family. No one else can ask for it. Why do you feel like you are going to the execution ground when you come to my husband's place?"
Yang Fan said half truthfully and half falsely:
"As the emperor's daughter, it is true that Princess Gaoyang has golden branches and beautiful leaves, but that girl has been spoiled since she was a child. She is so arrogant and willful that we can't even urinate in a pot."
Wu Meiniang blushed in embarrassment and said: "My husband's words are too crude. He can't pee..." If the handsome guy in Wangyue Tower is Princess Gaoyang, from my perspective, the princess is not only a human being, but also a human being. He is handsome, but his temper is not that arrogant."
Seeing that Wu Mei Niang was a bit disgusted, Yang Fan hugged her, and then said seriously: "No matter how handsome she is, she is not as beautiful as a certain Mei Niang. Besides, Princess Shang has so many etiquettes that it is torture to death. A certain person is naturally loose and does not want to have so many etiquettes." of bondage.”
Although she knew that Yang Fan was trying to coax her, Wu Meiniang still smiled like a crescent moon, feeling happy in her heart. Who doesn't like the praise of her beloved!
After looking at Yang Fan affectionately for a while, Wu Meiniang said softly: "Although my husband behaves differently from ordinary people, he has his own bottom line in everything. In Meiniang's view, that is what a true gentleman does."
"My husband usually acts willfully, unruly and without any scruples. I always feel that I do it on purpose so that others can take advantage of my husband. Mei Niang guesses that my husband must be afraid of His Majesty." ?”
"Now that my husband is about to enter the officialdom, Mei Niang feels that he should accept Princess Gaoyang more. Whether it is Princess Shang or marrying the princess, it can reduce His Majesty's suspicion. However, if I am right, the reason why my husband rejects Princess Gaoyang is not It’s as simple as etiquette being complicated.”
After listening to Wu Meiniang's analysis, Yang Fan secretly sighed in his heart. She was truly worthy of becoming a female empress for the ages. Her ability to figure out people's hearts was absolutely top-notch.
Now that the two of them had had an 'in-depth' exchange, Yang Fan naturally had no need to hide it, so he coughed dryly and said:
"Didn't Mei Niang see it at Wangyue Tower that day? That Princess Gaoyang didn't like a certain person at all. She was just trying to get rid of him with her words. You can imagine that if a woman doesn't like a man, she won't be able to get married if there is a chance. Go out?"
"Um?"
Wu Meiniang was stunned, her pretty face was in disbelief, and even her cherry-red mouth was slightly open.
Is this what that thoughtful, domineering, and confident husband should think?
In her mind, her man was confident about everything and extremely confident.
I didn't expect that now I am afraid that marrying a princess will lead to cheating. Isn't this too weird?
"Giggle..."
Thinking of this, Wu Meiniang laughed so hard that she was out of breath. Her husband usually looked fearless, but now he had such childish thoughts. It was so funny.
Although women in the Tang Dynasty were relatively free, they also followed the three obediences and the four virtues. Not only did everyone know etiquette and be observant of women's ways, but Hongxing would be scolded by everyone if she cheated on her, so few people dared to touch her.
Even though Wu Meiniang is extremely smart and good at figuring out people's thoughts, she originally just had a vague feeling that Yang Fan seemed to have some prejudice against Princess Gaoyang.
But even if she tried to break her little brain, she couldn't imagine that Yang Fan's thoughts were actually because of this.
Seeing that Wu Meiniang dared to make fun of her and didn't believe in herself, Yang Fan suddenly darkened his face and said with some embarrassment:
"What's so funny about this? Is there no reason for X's worries? He is a man and can tolerate anything, but this is the only thing that cannot be tolerated."
If he really marries her, if something like this happens one day, I will have to kill her with one knife. If he turns against His Majesty, then everyone in the house will be implicated.
I left my words here today, if one day Mei Niang dares to show off...
Before she finished speaking, she was blocked by Wu Meiniang's two soft lips, making her feel lingering for a while.
Wu Meiniang panted slightly and leaned against Yang Fan's ear, murmuring softly with blurred eyes:
"Husbands don't know women's thoughts. If Princess Gaoyang is not interested in her husband, she won't deliberately seek trouble to attract his attention!"
"Besides, which woman has the heart to think about other men after seeing such a wonderful man as Mr. Husband? I can guarantee that as long as a woman has tasted the power of Mr. Husband, she will be absolutely devoted to him and will never have any objections to him."
Besides, if you can't even...even serve your husband, how can you have other thoughts?
After saying this, Wu Meiniang blushed with embarrassment, and another scene inappropriate for children appeared in her mind.
Yang Fan's heart was filled with enthusiasm after being praised by her. This was a more tactful way of praising Yang Fan's charm and bravery in certain aspects.
This was much better than saying "I love you". It was like taking medicine. It made Yang Fan feel so comfortable. He was secretly proud and asked in surprise:
"If someone marries a princess, won't Mei Niang be jealous? Aren't you afraid that your husband will forget the old one when he has a new one?"
Wu Meiniang gave Yang Fan a charming look and smiled: "I am not a jealous woman. Besides, will your husband do the same?"
Yang Fan didn't answer, but couldn't help but tighten his arms around his soft waist, full of love and affection.
No wonder men all have a dream of traveling through time. This kind of woman is simply his favorite.
But how could Yang Fan know Wu Meiniang's inner thoughts.
Now Wu Meiniang has placed her position very clearly. She is just a concubine given to Yang Fan by the emperor.
Yang Fan wanted to marry a real wife after all. Since he had to marry, he might as well marry the most noble one.
If Yang Fan marries a woman from a noble family, she may still have some scruples, fearing that these women will confiscate the power in her hands after entering the palace.
But marrying a princess is different. The princess is of noble birth, so of course she won't go to great lengths to take away what is in her hands.
After all, after every princess gets married, even the affairs of the princess mansion are left to the servants to take care of.
Furthermore, she also has a small selfish motive, which is to become a royal wife.
Although it is rare for a concubine to be given a royal title, it would be different if Yang Fan's first wife was a princess.
The princess has a noble status, so of course she doesn't need a royal decree. As Yang Fan's concubine, she is a perfect choice.
On the other hand, during this period of time, she had already figured out Yang Fan's character.
Although she can be a bit chauvinistic at times, she will definitely treat women equally. This is where her confidence lies.
She believed that with her own abilities and means, no man would be willing to let her go easily.
Feeling the strangeness in Yang Fan's hands, Wu Meiniang smiled sweetly and said: "My husband is about to enter the officialdom, but he must change his previous casual personality, otherwise it will not be a good thing for him."
"oh?"
Yang Fan was very interested in Wu Meiniang's words. He really wanted to hear what this queen who would turn her hands into clouds and rain in the future had to say.
Seeing Yang Fan's encouraging eyes, Wu Meiniang organized her thoughts and slowly said:
"In officialdom, what is important is to be humble and low-key combined with decisiveness and ruthlessness. When you are not working, you should be low-key and bide your time. When it is critical, you will be like a tiger coming out of the cage and killing you with one blow. Only in this way will people be respected and feared, and you will also be appreciated. Unexpected effects, this is the so-called 'gentleman hides his weapons and waits for the time to move'."
Wu Meiniang's theory about the popularity of officialdom surprised Yang Fan.
Many people believe that leaders with higher official positions are kinder. In fact, this is just an illusion of people at the bottom.
Those who work in the officialdom and are in high positions have not experienced bloody storms!
Although this little girl has not entered the officialdom, she is so talented, and her knowledge of the officialdom is really sharp.
Although Yang Fan has never been an official, he still has experience. How could he not understand this truth?
In previous lives, those people who acted unscrupulously in the officialdom based on their family background or ability were often the worst offenders. You don’t see them too much on the Internet.
The reason why I acted haphazardly in the past was because I had not yet entered into the rules of the game. Now that I was about to enter the officialdom, of course I had to be extremely careful.
Thinking of this, Yang Fan smiled slightly, but he didn't want to let these trivial matters disturb his mood. He smiled and said: "Mei Niang is really thoughtful. From now on, my husband will need Mei Niang to give more guidance. But I don't know what I just said about 'a gentleman hides in his weapon'. What’s behind?”
Wu Meiniang was slightly startled. With her husband's knowledge, she should not know this, but she still said: "A gentleman hides his weapons by himself until the time comes. He does not show emotion when being humiliated by others. He notices the faults of others and does not make them known to others. People who are deceitful do not express anger; people who are stable do not speak when the water is deep; those who plan great things hide them in their hearts and act on them; those who are wise see dangers that are invisible; those who are wise see disasters that have not yet occurred."
Yang Fan smiled slightly and said: "The words of our ancestors are really wise, but they are also too vulgar."
Wu Meiniang looked surprised and asked: "Husband, this is what the sage Confucius said when he explained the Book of Changes. How can it be vulgar?"
Soon, Wu Meiniang felt a burning sensation somewhere, and her delicate body became soft for a while. She was frightened and begged: "Husband, please don't..."
Yang Fan smiled charmingly and said: "The so-called weapon that a gentleman keeps in his body refers to this. Meiniang understands the meaning of waiting for the time."
"Oh, my husband is so bad."
Only then did Wu Meiniang suddenly realize. Her pretty face was red, and she gently beat Yang Fan's chest with her small fist. She was funny and angry at the same time.
My husband is so serious, how could he come up with such a dirty explanation? Isn’t this a misinterpretation of the saint’s meaning?
