The entanglement between Duke Dingguo's Mansion and Marquis Jing'an's Mansion is almost universally known to everyone. The girl's question was seen by everyone present as knowingly asking and doing it deliberately. How could Colonel Lin be wrong? The principle of Qi.
The military advisor smiled and said: "Don't be excited, don't be excited. His temper is always like this. You don't want to be the same as him."
Xia Zhaoyi also laughed: "The military advisor was wrong. It's not 'you' who don't want to be on the same level as him, but 'you' who don't want to be on the same level as him. I only have a relationship with Mr. Shen next to me. What I said today is my own." Take responsibility, if there is anything that makes you feel unhappy, it will be on my head."
The military advisor's smile became awkward: "We are not unhappy with what Miss Ali said. Duke Dingguo's dedication to the country is an example for us to follow. We pay tribute to those who have gone before. Those who have the world in mind and sacrificed their lives for the country." , This is the virtue of the Supreme Saint, how can it not be mentioned?"
"Oh," Xia Zhaoyi nodded and smiled even brighter, "It is virtuous to be virtuous, and it is not virtuous to be virtuous."
The military advisor's expression changed drastically, and he looked at the girl with obvious anger and disbelief.
Who gives such a girl the courage? Is it just this Shen Lie?
The girl looked back with a smile, not afraid.
Marquis Jing'an has been having a hard time thinking recently, and it took him a moment to react, his eyes became angry, and he looked at the girl.
"What does this sentence mean?" Colonel Lin asked others.
No one paid attention to him.
"Miss Ali's surname is Xia, where is her surname?" the military advisor asked again.
"Listen to my accent."
The military advisor frowned, unable to hear clearly.
Xia Zhaoyi looked at Shen Lie aside: "Would you like to hear it?"
"Capital City?" Shen Lie said.
"guessed wrong."
"Where is that?" the military advisor asked again.
Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "Shen Langjun and I just met by chance, and we have nothing to do with you. If you ask me where I live, do you want to be a guest?"
The military advisor's frown deepened.
The girl still had a smile on her face, but her smile was distant, as if a high wall had been built to keep others away.
Everyone looked at her and felt that the light images on her body were like thorns standing up.
Isn't it just because of Mr. Shen's face that she can sit here and be so rude today?
But what adds to the problem is that Marquis Jing'an now has to ask Shen Lie for help.
Several people looked towards Marquis Jing'an.
Marquis Jing'an's hands were trembling slightly. He tried to calm down, but his face betrayed him.
What does the world think of him? He is not deaf or blind. Although he is extremely angry, those pointing fingers are behind him.
In front of me, in addition to several princes and grandsons, there are also ministers who claim to be aloof and arrogant. How can such a yellow-haired girl get her turn?
He actually mocked him for his hypocrisy and wickedness in front of so many people!
Could it be that now, even a little girl does not look down upon him, the Marquis who was personally conferred by the emperor?
The atmosphere became tense again. After a moment, the military advisor laughed and said, "Everyone is afraid of young people. Today, I really saw it. Miss Ali is frank and lovely, with sharp teeth, and she has no restraints in her childlike speech."
Xia Zhaoyi smiled, said no more, and lowered his eyes.
Seeing that she didn't want to talk anymore, the military advisor also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fine wines and delicacies were brought one by one, and the military advisor diverted the topic away from the topic, starting with the suppression of bandits in Chongyi, then the Peifeng disaster, and then talked about the fine wines and delicacies of several places.
Shen Lie was obviously not good at talking. Sometimes when the military advisor mentioned his name and wanted him to join in the discussion, he could not say a few words.
Xia Zhaoyi sat next to him and listened quietly, without raising his eyes again.
The military advisor would look at her from time to time, wondering what she was thinking.
After the banquet was over, Marquis Jing'an proposed that he and Shen Lie should go for a walk. Shen Lie agreed and several guards went with him.
Xia Zhaoyi, Shitou, Dai Yu and Du Xuan returned to the place where the carriage was parked, and the concubine was arranging a place to live.
Dai Yu and the others lamented that they had eaten a full meal and praised the craftsmanship. After the compliment, Dai Yu turned back to look at Ah Li and slapped her on the shoulder: "Ah Li!"
Xia Zhaoyi was looking at Qingyun, and when he heard this, he turned back: "Huh?"
"Haha, why weren't you scared?" Dai Yu patted again, this time with a lighter force.
Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "Yes, I was scared, so don't take pictures of me in the future."
"Miss Ali, what do you mean by what you said before?" Du Xuan asked.
Xia Zhaoyi pondered and said, "How can you be virtuous if you are not virtuous?"
"right."
"From the "Tao Te Ching", the words and deeds of truly virtuous people are naturally virtuous, and only unscrupulous people will imitate and act on them."
"Pfft!" Dai Yu laughed, "Ah Li, you are so brave, you dare to scold the Marquis of Jing'an for his wickedness!"
"Don't laugh," Xia Zhaoyi said seriously, "This is a matter between Tao Daizhuo and me. Don't talk too much. I don't want to involve you."
"You came with us, and what you said has already implicated us." Shitou said.
"No, I have already ended the relationship. In their eyes, they will only think that you are unlucky for having messed with someone as sharp-tongued as me, and they might even sympathize with you."
"Since you knew it would cause trouble, you still bumped into me," Shitou curled his lips, "If I ask you what your surname is, just tell me your surname. You mentioned Dingguo's mansion for no reason."
"Stone." Dai Yu scolded.
Xia Zhaoyi was not annoyed, but tilted his head and smiled: "It's unreasonable, I love this surname so much, because it is the surname of Dingguo Duke's mansion, how can I be proud of it, can't I?"
"That's right, just say it, what's the big deal," Dai Yu also said, "Because others have guilty consciences, we have to accommodate them, and we have to think twice about what we say?"
"We are guests, this is etiquette!"
"Ah Li is not a guest."
"What's she doing here if she's not a guest?"
"I went in, but I didn't touch Tao Daizhuo's things. I sat over there, sitting on the ground beneath my feet." Xia Zhaoyi said.
Shitou felt it was unreasonable, and stared at him and said, "Then you've always had to endure that tent to protect yourself from the wind, right?"
"Yeah, it's so hot."
"You know it's hot, so why do you still have to suffer?"
Xia Zhaoyi laughed again: "Because I want to know what they are talking about. It is better to go in and listen openly than to lie outside and eavesdrop. Which one do you think is more rude?"
"You!" Stone smoked angrily.
"I will naturally respect those who deserve respect, and of course I will look down upon those who are not worthy of respect."
"Have you ever promoted yourself like this? At such a young age, you are so crazy."
Xia Zhaoyi put her hands on her chest and smiled even brighter: "Yeah, I'm just so crazy. I'm just playing in the world. How can I be less crazy? I dare to think about anything, do anything, and believe in anything. Look. "
Xia Zhaoyi turned sideways and continued to smile: "Is my waist straight? This is my crazy capital."
