It was night, and the tent was filled with candlelight.
With this little glimmer of light, Dong Lingjiu frowned and sat in front of the desk to review the memorial sent today. The night wind whistled outside the tent, and after a while, there were more people in the tent.
"Master, Master Song has sent word that the fifth princess of Xiling will arrive at Dongling Imperial City in two days. Please make preparations in advance."
Dong Lingjiu paused with the brush in his hand and nodded towards Shaoqing.
"Well, I understand. I will tell Song Lingcheng to order the people in the palace to arrange the food and accommodation for the fifth princess. I will go back after Tan'er's competition is over."
"yes."
Shaoqing disappeared in a flash.
Dong Lingjiu's pen stopped in mid-air for a long time without falling. After being silent for a while, he placed the pen on the pen holder, stood up, straightened his clothes, and left the tent.
The two tents in front of him belonged to Xia Tan'er on the left and Feng Muchi's on the right. Dong Lingjiu thought for a second and walked straight to the right.
At this moment, Feng Muchi was squatting on a chair and having a great time playing dice with Lao Yan.
"Big, big, big!"
"Small! This one is definitely small! If you don't believe it, look at it."
Lao Yan lifted the lid of the bowl.
"Look, one, two, three and six are small, young master, you are still far behind."
"Hmph, it must be Lao Yan who is playing tricks on you. I don't believe that I will lose every game."
Feng Muchi looked dissatisfied. He crouched down and turned around, only to see Dong Lingjiu lifting up the tent and walking towards the room.
Looking at Aventurine Jiu, Feng Muchi thought of the inappropriate scene he had witnessed before, couldn't help but jumped down from his chair, and walked towards Aventurine Jiu with raised eyebrows.
"I'm talking to Uncle Nine Emperors, how does it feel to be pregnant with this beautiful woman? Let me tell you, Lao Yan and I watched the whole process. What a trick you have. You can make Tan'er take the initiative to kiss you and say, what kind of charm did you use? Tan'er's fans were fascinated by these tricks."
After saying that, a big hand wrapped his arms around Dong Lingjiu's shoulders very boldly, and walked with him towards the table.
In the past, Dong Ling Jiuding felt bored. No one except Xia Tan'er could touch him. But now that he wants to drag Feng Muchi into a trap, he still needs to correct his attitude.
"I have always been sincere to Tan'er. I made the matter clear, and Tan'er can feel it."
"Hmph, this little girl Tan'er is easy to deceive. How can she be a match in front of you if you are so thoughtful." Only men understand men, and Feng Muchi was protecting Xia Tan'er from the position of her mother's family.
"With Young Master Feng's praise, I have indeed taken advantage of Young Master Xiafeng with deep thoughts to make Tan'er forgive me and let go of my anger towards you. I believe that when the competition in the military camp is over, Young Master Feng will be able to eat Tan'er's braised pork again. .”
Dong Lingjiu moved gently, put aside Feng Muchi's hand and sat down. When Lao Yan saw it, he hurriedly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Dong Lingjiu.
"Uncle Nine Emperors, please have some tea."
"Are you telling the truth?"
When Feng Muchi heard this, he immediately sat down happily. Previously, he was worried about trying to lose face like this to please Xia Tan'er, but hey, Dong Lingjiu actually solved it for him by the way.
"What did I lie to you for?"
"Yes, then I will trust you once, my dear young master." Feng Muchi picked up the teacup and drank it down happily.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Dong Lingjiu stroked the rim of the cup in circles, picked up the teacup and played with it in his hand, then spoke casually.
"Young Master Feng has calmed down and doesn't worry about Tan'er's thoughts, but I still have a big problem that I haven't solved yet."
"Big problem? What big problem."
"There will be a grand event in Kyushu in the near future, and I am responsible for the palace affairs under the emperor's orders."
"Then, what's this big problem? Your majestic Nine Emperors Uncle of Dongling is very good at arranging troops and formations, but a small matter like being in charge of the palace has become a big problem?"
"Of course not. The palace is a small matter, but you need to be cautious in everything. My king's subordinates are very capable, but this is not what I am worried about."
"What's that? You're a grown man and you speak out when you have something to say, and you're so coy about it."
Feng Muchi hates such twists and turns and is very clever. He doesn't know when he will be involved. He still likes Xia Tan'er's straightforward and generous way to kill people without paying for their lives. At least it is happy.
"I wonder if Young Master Feng has heard in the Jianghu Temple that the Fifth Princess of Xiling has a deep love for me. Rumors say that she came here just to impress me and marry her as the Ninth Princess. During the grand event in Kyushu, I will not be able to avoid it. Get along with her."
"Except for Tan'er, I have never paid attention to other women. I am open-minded, but I am afraid that Tan'er will have some resentment in her heart. What means the fifth princess of Xiling will use, I am afraid that Tan'er will You will be angry with me because of this, and it will be really difficult to coax you back."
Dong Lingjiu showed an extremely worried look at the right time, which made Feng Muchi really believe his words.
Dong Lingjiu, however, was not in a hurry to put forward his purpose and continued to express his worries.
"Actually, it's good to make Tan'er jealous. Let her understand how important this king is in her heart. It's just that it's really difficult for me to control Tan'er's heart, so to be on the safe side, it's better not to be tainted by women."
"But it is my duty to welcome the fifth princess of Xiling. I really can't avoid it. Now, I and Young Master Feng can be regarded as grasshoppers on the same rope. In the early years, I heard that Young Master Feng is very good at dealing with women. Today I came here to ask for advice. Fan, I hope Young Master Feng will not hesitate to teach me."
First he revealed his difficulties, then he drew closer to Feng Muchi, and then he invisibly promoted Feng Muchi's image. These repeated deceptions directly made Feng Muchi feel complacent.
"I didn't expect that you, Dongling God of War Nine Emperor Uncle, would also have this day, hahahaha, hahaha."
Feng Muchi held his belly and laughed, completely unaware of the cunning flash in Dong Lingjiu's eyes.
"Young Master Feng, don't just smile and think of a way for me. In order to help you, I will admit that I was defeated by you in front of Tan'er."
"Did you seriously say that?"
Feng Muchi couldn't believe it. How could someone like Dong Lingjiu admit defeat, especially in front of the woman he loved? He and Dong Lingjiu were the same kind of people, the kind of people who must win, so he was very interested in Dong Lingjiu. Ling Jiu occasionally had the feeling of cherishing heroes.
But if it is true as Dong Lingjiu said, then he has indeed wasted a lot of effort. If he can directly ask Xia Taner to confirm it, Dong Lingjiu will definitely not be able to tell lies.
All of a sudden, an unknown emotion gradually spread from the bottom of his heart. Feng Muchi actually felt a little touched, and even felt that Dong Lingjiu was a friend worth making.
"Young Master Feng, if you don't believe me, you can ask Tan'er."
"There is no need to ask Tan'er. Between helping you and helping me, Tan'er will definitely choose to help me. He may hide something from you, but he will tell me the truth. Since you can say such things, it means that you I’m not lying, for your sake, I helped you with this!”
