"Did you ask me to cancel the marriage?" Concubine Gong Xian was lying on the bed, answering casually. She didn't even look at Jian Xiao, she just put her hands on her pet cat and rubbed it.
"Yes!" Jian Xiao said seriously, "I didn't know that Ye Fan's folk customs were like this. Now that I know, I can't let the women of Bijia country suffer like that."
Concubine Gong Xian raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and said with a hint of irony: "I can't believe that our Concubine Jian is still so considerate of the people! But we have our words first. How can we go back on our words when we are a great country?"
"Then King Ye Fanguo's request, of course there are other countermeasures to get married. We can naturally select dozens of beauties in the country and send them out, which is better than just sending Concubine Yan away?" Jian Xiao thought of Concubine Yan and herself.
Having said that, I feel uncomfortable all over my body
"Oh my God, your Majesty is so generous. You can't bear to give away even a little concubine. How can you give away dozens of beauties?" Concubine Gong Xian still said sarcastically.
"Is it better to have dozens of ministers in Ye Fanguo than to have no one but incest?" Jian Xiao said, "I am doing this for the good of their country. Marrying close relatives will only make the offspring weak."
"What?" Concubine Gong Xian was irritated by the new words Jian Xiao said, "Concubine Jian, I think you should stop talking. The matter is a foregone conclusion. If you really want to feel sorry for Concubine Yan, you might as well make more preparations.
I need some dowry." Concubine Gong Xian yawned lazily, "I'm really tired today! Concubine Jian had better go elsewhere!" After saying that, she shouted to see off the guests.
Jian Xiao saw that Concubine Gong Xian had no room to speak. She thought that if there was any change in this matter, she would have to start with Gao Tianduo.
Jian Xiao sat on the sedan with a bumpy ride. She argued that as a concubine in the harem, she should not go in and out of the minister's house, but now she no longer cares about it.
After leaving the palace, taking a detour to the west, the sedan stopped in front of a deep courtyard. Jian Xiao opened the sedan curtain and took a look. How much oil and water has Gao Tianduo dug out in the past two years?
The big red lantern on the gate has the word "高" written on it. There are four guards at the gate wearing soap coats with swords on their waists. The dense branches in the majestic yard poke out from the wall, giving a prosperous appearance.
The green brick courtyard wall is extremely majestic.
The guard notified the visitor, and soon the door opened. Jian Xiao walked into Gao Tianduo's house. Jian Xiao looked around. The girls and servants were sweeping the yard and watering the flowers. The style of the whole house had the feel of a southern garden.
, high and low, winding and winding. Except for the main hall, the other rooms are connected by a curve of clear water. There is a green tree corridor in the middle, which looks particularly delicate.
The sedan made several turns and stopped in front of a corridor door.
"My queen, please get off the sedan!" said a little girl.
Jian Xiao walked down and looked inside. It was a little dark inside. Even during the day, a lantern still needed to be used to illuminate Jian Xiao. Jian Xiao felt a little uncomfortable. She took two steps forward. Suddenly, the person behind her brought her with her
Mei Hua stopped her and said, "My lord, I have something to say. I only see the imperial concubine alone."
Jian Xiao glanced at Mei Hua and said, "It's okay! Just wait for me here!"
She was walking alone on the green bricks. Jian Xiao used to be most afraid of hearing the echo of her own footsteps while walking, but now she is most afraid of not even being able to hear her own footsteps. There are many paintings hanging on the edge of the corridor, basically painted by Gao Tianduo himself.
of
He preferred Western oil paintings, but painting with Chinese ink always felt a little weird. Jian Xiao could only speed up her pace, looked down at her elongated shadow, and walked quickly towards the end of the corridor.
Jian Xiao stood at the door of an antique double door, took a deep breath, and knocked gently, "Master Gao!"
"Please come in!" Gao Tianduo's voice came in
Jian Xiao opened the door. The corridor was dark, but the room was very bright. It was so bright that Jian Xiao felt a little dazzling. She covered the bright sunlight with her hand and waited for a while before she could see clearly.
There is a huge table. Gao Tianduo is standing behind the table, holding a brush and painting. It seems that there is nothing else in the room except the table.
"Master Gao is so elegant. Are you still painting?" Jian Xiao knows that when asking for help, she still has to say soft words.
"Come and take a look!" Gao Tianduo raised his eyes.
Jian Xiao walked over and looked down, her expression immediately changed.
The portrait depicts Jian Xiao. She is riding on a horse, surrounded by a circle of blond and blue-eyed men staring at Jian Xiao eagerly, as if staring at prey. The most disgusting thing is that all the people in the portrait are naked Jian Xiao.
Xiao suddenly felt like he was looking at the cover of ancient "Playboy"
She crumpled the drawing paper into a ball and said angrily: "You are going to die!"
Gao Tianduo didn't care, "It was you who was going to die!" He said, "You still want to plead for Concubine Yan, you should thank her for saving you, otherwise..." He tapped the desk with a brush, "This painting is just
It’s come true!”
"You know this, but you still do this?" Jian Xiao originally thought that Gao Tianduo didn't know the inside story, so he embarked on this path. It turned out that he knew everything
"Don't worry!" Gao Tianduo said with a smile, "You know I love Western paintings. Do you know why?"
Jian Xiao did not answer
"Because Westerners have always been brave enough to show us the beauty of women's bodies," Gao Tianduo put down his brush. "Chinese people are always evasive. Is a woman's naked body beautiful or natural?" He walked behind Jian Xiao and spoke gently to her.
Jian Xiao's ears said, "How is it? Have you thought about it?"
"What have you thought about?"
"You came to me to plead for mercy, what are you not prepared to pay?" Gao Tianduo said and put his hand on Jian Xiao's waist, "This line..."
Jian Xiao hurriedly broke away, stepped back, and shouted: "Go to your dream!" After saying that, he hurriedly walked out. He didn't want to stay in this damn place for a moment. His mind was filled with water, so he thought of meeting him here.
All he has to do now is leave!
"Gao Tianduo, just pretend I haven't been here today!"
Jian Xiao just stretched out her hand to push the door. Suddenly, the door handle came over and an iron clip clamped Jian Xiao's wrist. She couldn't move. She panicked and used her other hand to break it. There was a "click" sound, and a clip on the door clamped Jian Xiao's wrist.
Hug me around the waist
"Let me go!" Jian Xiao struggled and shouted.
"Hahaha!" Gao Tianduo laughed, "You can pretend it didn't happen today, but I can't." He touched a button on the desk with his hand, and the originally bright room became more dazzling.
All the original walls in the room turned into bright mirrors. Jian Xiao could only see his own figure being held hostage in every corner of the room, as if there were thousands of Jian Xiaos appearing. Jian Xiao could see Gao Tianduo with a sly smile on his face.
He came up and said, "Jian Xiao, Jian Xiao, you are so smart in your life, how could you imagine that you could come here alone and escape unscathed?"
