"Come on, come on, call me, what jewelry did you choose?" There are gems and pearls on the g, the pearls are shining, and the rays are bright.【】
Su Ying stood up and said with a smile: "You are back!"
However, Tang Saier suddenly hid behind Su Ying.
In this era, unmarried girls were not allowed to use rouge or gouache, and they rarely used jewelry on their heads and faces. Only married people could wear jewelry and use powder. Tang Saier also knew this rule, so she was a little embarrassed to wear jewelry at this time.
Meet Xia Xun.
Xia Xun didn't care about this. Su Ying was a pirate and didn't care much about this. Xia Xun smiled and said, "Why are you still hiding? Let me see." Su Ying smiled and pulled Tang Saier from behind.
Pulled it out and pushed it forward.
Tang Saier's face was dizzy and she didn't dare to raise her head. She only held up her skirt and walked to Xia Xun's side. She lowered her head and looked like a well-behaved person. She raised her head shyly.
There are two shiny pearls hanging on the helix of the ear. The pearls are not big, a bit close to the shape of a drop. The top is a silver chain clip, which is gently stuck on the two earlobes.
She only wore this pair of earrings and no other pearls, but it made her face, which had no make-up applied, look smooth and white, making her look extremely beautiful.
Xia Xun smiled and said: "Okay, very beautiful!"
When Xia Xun praised her, Tang Sai'er became embarrassed, her face was filled with haze, and her eyes were shining. Her dimples were as delicate as a hua, and she was charming with a bit of greenness and immaturity, which was particularly heartwarming.
Xia Xun was a person who once lived in the world. His wives and concubines all had excellent looks, figures, charms and temperaments. He had seen all kinds of beautiful girls and charming beauties. He was not surprised at all. He just marveled at this new born in a father's state of mind.
The little baby during the war in Dezhou has now grown into a young woman named Pingting.
Time shapes the miracle of life.
"Brother Tang, if you could have known your precious daughter to be so beautiful back then, I wonder if you would have given up rebellion for her sake..."
Xia Xun sighed and asked again: "I just saw that you like that plate of pearls, don't you want to wear them too so that I can have a look?"
Tang Sai'er said: "The beads in that necklace are round and round. I just like them and don't like to wear them."
Xia Xun thought about it. If a young girl wore a necklace like that on her neck, it would not be a jewelery thing, but it would be extremely vulgar.
Xia Xun praised him a few more times, and Tang Saier left happily.
After the room door closed, Xia Xun turned to look at Su Ying. Su Ying smiled brightly at him. She looked just like the pearls that Tang Sai'er said were round and round.
Xia Xun glanced at Su Ying and saw that Su Ying was not wearing any jewelry. He couldn't help but ask: "What, it's not intentional?"
Su Ying smiled and sighed: "I am almost an old woman, why should I wear jewelry? Oh, I don't know yet. When I saw Sai'er, I realized that I am really old..."
Su Ying's tone contained a sense of helplessness as time passed.
"What is old? The most important thing is that you don't accept old age. If your heart is old, then you are really old. Come on, let me put it on for you!"
Xia Xun picked up the string of pearls on the table and gently wrapped them around Su Ying's neck, once, twice, three times...
After buttoning it up and letting go, the pearl lined her neck.
Su Ying walked toward the mirror, feeling more and more awkward, and couldn't help but said: "This string of beads is too long. It's really good to put it in a box, but it's difficult to carry it. Take it off quickly!" As she said that, she reached out to pick off the necklace.
Xia Xun said: "No, there's nothing wrong with the beads. It's just that you're wearing them wrong."
Su Ying was startled and said: "I'm wearing it wrong? Isn't that how I wear the necklace? What else can I do?"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "Of course it is correct to wear it like this, but... I have just realized that this is not how this string of beads is worn. It is not meant to be worn for outsiders to appreciate."
ing, a charming ravine was created, and the three disks of pearls were suspended in front of the chest, with the ball at the top caught in the ravine.
The pearl emits a soft light among the snowy peaks and ravines, and the lustrous pearly light reflects the plump and lustrous breasts. I don’t know whether it is the luster of the pearl that adds luster to the breasts, or the plump breasts that add luster to the pearls.
beauty.
It was a complete fit, subtle and charming, warm and soft with a rouvy youhuo.
When Su Ying looked in the mirror, she felt a little crazy without realizing it, and her eyes gradually became filled with a layer of mist.
Among Xia Xun's wives, she was the oldest. People at that time favored sons. This was certainly a woman's natural tendency to love beauty, but it was also a hidden worry about losing Xia Xun's favor.
Beautiful time, don't let it slip through your fingers, but how long can she last with this magnificence?
Faint tears...
Xia Xun seemed to know the worry in her heart, and gently kissed her neck, saying softly: "Silly girl, you think so much, people will always grow old, and I will be the same when you grow old.
One day, you and I will be gray-haired, with grandchildren and great-grandchildren playing under our knees. That is another kind of happiness."
Su Ying couldn't help but hold Xia Xun's hand, and the two of them snuggled together quietly.
At this time, there was only each other's heartbeats, and the sound of waves outside the window seemed to have disappeared...

"My lord, the Prince of Ceylon came with a list and asked for 20 boxes of musk, 30,000 pieces of silk, 30,000 pieces of sequin, 1,000 boxes of porcelain, 200 boxes of camphor, and 500,000 copper coins.
It is said that it is a reward that Eunuch Zheng He promised to give to the country. Mr. Zhang Xitong does not dare to make the decision. He is dragging Prince Ceylon and asking me to ask the Duke to make the decision!"
The speaker was an official who came with the ship, named Du Bing. There were few officials in the court who did not know Xia Xun, so they did not deliberately conceal Xia Xun's identity from them.
Suddenly encountering such a thing, Zhang Xitong had never had such experience before, so he couldn't help but panic. If he agreed, he had never given such a generous reward to any country for such a large amount of wealth.
If you don't agree, if this is really what Zheng He promised, but here refuses to pay, then Ming Dynasty will lose its face to the end of the world. In desperation, Zhang Xitong had no choice but to ask Du Bing to come and invite Xia Xun.
Xia Xun was being affectionate with his beloved wife when he was hurriedly invited over by Du Bing. The two of them walked and talked at the same time. When they were about to reach Zheng He's big ship, Xia Xun understood the whole story.
"Oh? Is it possible that Eunuch Zheng He or someone close to him will accompany him back?"
"No!"
"Nonsense! With such a huge amount of finance, there is not even a handwriting from Eunuch Zheng, and there are no people around Eunuch Zheng to accompany it, so what else should we consider?"
Xia Xun knew it was a fraud as soon as he heard it. Even in the tribute trade before, Zhu Di was there to make money, not to be a boy who made money. These people wanted to take advantage of the Ming Dynasty, so they could only use the opportunity of paying tribute to get some benefits from the tribute.
Zheng He's fleet came all the way down to buy things on their own. If you don't sell them, there will be people who are willing to sell them, so you can't ask for an exorbitant price.
Most of the rewards given to various countries along the way are weapons and weapons. This is to express the emperor's appeasement to the ministers. Of course, giving these things is equivalent to the leader giving you a certificate of award, and you can also ransack your own home in large and small packages.
Can't you send something?
This time, tribute trade was changed to free trade. The political purpose of Zheng He's fleet was weaker than last time, and there was no reason to reward generously. So Xia Xun knew the news was untrue as soon as he heard it.
Du Bing smiled bitterly and said: "Master Zhang also thinks it is ridiculous, but as the prince of a kingdom, with such status, he commits fraud? It is really unbelievable, Master Zhang does not dare to judge, so..."
Xia Xun sneered and said: "Do you think all the overseas countries are like my heavenly country? Let alone a prince, even if the leader of a country is the bandit leader, it is not surprising. There used to be eight self-proclaimed countries.
Burning, killing, looting, committing all kinds of evil, he is worse than a robber!!"
Du Bing hurriedly said: "In that case, let me inform Mr. Zhang to send them back!"
"Okay! Wait!"
Xia Xun suddenly called him again, his face became solemn, and he said slowly: "If they have Eunuch Zheng's handwriting, I don't believe it was really Eunuch Zheng who promised them. However, if they have the handwriting, it at least proves that Eunuch Zheng is safe and sound.
Or just become a hostage. Now that there is no handwriting from Eunuch Zheng, I am very worried..."
Du Bing hurriedly asked: "What is the Duke worried about?"
Xia Xun said in a deep voice: "I'm worried... Eunuch Zheng has encountered something unexpected!"

"Is Senac back?"
"Not yet, Your Majesty!"
This was the sixth time Alekunel asked his palace steward, but the answer he received was still that he had not come back.
Zheng He smiled and said to Aleksandr: "Your Majesty the King, this imperial envoy is too drunk, so let's break up the banquet. I am very grateful to His Majesty the King for his hospitality. I should return to the ship..."
Alekuner, who was whispering to the palace steward, heard the interpreter relaying Zheng He's words. He quickly turned around and said, "Don't be anxious, Mr. Zheng He. The king is very hospitable. If you come here once in a while, I will definitely do it."
I need to drink a few more drinks. If it’s too late, just stay in the palace. No hurry, no rush!”
Suddenly, a palace warrior hurried over and whispered in Alejandro's ear: "Your Majesty, the Ming fleet sent someone to take their imperial envoy back!"
Alejandro was startled and said, "Why are all their people here to pick up the imperial envoy, but the prince hasn't come back yet?"
The samurai said: "The people from the Ming Dynasty fleet said that His Royal Highness the Prince was a guest on the ship. He was a little drunk because he was happy at the banquet. He was having tea on the ship to sober up and enjoying the singing and dancing. He also said that he would like to ask His Majesty the King to send the Imperial Envoy back, who happened to pick him up.
Your Highness the Prince is back!"
