"This... really not." Deng Xiaoran said with a half-smile. Originally, before getting to know Ke'er, the young prince thought that she must be a very reserved and gentle woman. But it turned out that he was completely wrong. Ke'er went crazy.
She is a woman who is more extreme than a man.
From time to time, a word or an action would surprise Deng Xiaoran. However, he liked this frank woman from the bottom of his heart. At least she was not pretentious or pretentious.
A few days later, the people of Yizhou suddenly discovered that the young prince was no longer nostalgic for the brothel, but a handsome man dressed as a Taoist priest had appeared beside him. The two were laughing and talking, and they were extremely close. Rumors spread that the young prince had an affair.
The habit of cutting off sleeves.
This rumor reached the ears of the old prince, which made the old prince Deng Yi'an angry.
"Call this unfilial son back to me immediately." Deng Yi'an almost roared.
When Deng Xiaoran and Ke'er both appeared, the old prince's face turned green: "I only asked you to come alone, what is he here for?"
Deng Xiaoran turned around to look at Ke'er and smiled: "She is my guest and my friend, why can't she come?"
"You're such a traitor," the old prince cursed angrily.
"What's wrong with me?" Deng Xiaoran looked innocent.
The old prince raised his finger and pointed at his son and said angrily: "You have the nerve to ask me? Look at what you have done? Drinking wine and making some bad friends all day long, forget it, but now, you are actually with me
You are inseparable from a man, do you know what the people are talking about you? They say you have a habit of cutting off your sleeves, where do you want me to put this old face? "
Unexpectedly, Deng Xiaoran curled his lips and said: "If you think it's unfair, dad, you can also find a man. Anyway, my mother died early, and you already have a group of wives and concubines, so you don't need a man."
"You...you piece of shit, let's see if I don't beat you to death." Deng Yi'an turned pale, picked up the teacup next to him, and threw it at Deng Xiaoran.
"Dad, what are you doing? You dare me, a gentleman talks but doesn't do anything." Deng Xiaoran said while hiding.
But the old prince was angry and no matter what he said, the old prince would not calm down and wanted to beat him to death.
Ke'er snickered on the side. It was the first time she saw such a friendly father and son. It was really interesting. Although King Yi'an wanted to beat Deng Xiaoran, the scene was extremely warm. She only cares about him because of love. Deng Xiaoran was very lucky.
He has a father who dotes on him so much.
When Ke'er thought about this, she couldn't help but think of her daddy, a middle-aged man with a fat belly, and her daddy's gold-rimmed glasses, which made her miss her very much at this moment.
Seeing that his father did not calm down, Deng Xiaoran had no choice but to use his trump card. He knelt on the ground with a bang and pretended to cry: "Mother, why did you die so early? Daddy is cruel and looks down on me. He wants to beat me to death."
, you might as well take me away."
Sure enough, when he saw Deng Xiaoran talking about his mother, King Yi'an stopped scolding him. Instead, he sighed and sat down and said: "Ran'er, you have grown up and you can't keep fooling around like this. Who in the whole Nanyu doesn't laugh at me?
A lustful good-for-nothing son who loves to drink flowers and wine, daddy didn’t force you to be daddy.
position, but you have to stop it. You are already an adult and must not hang around like this. Back then, my father was only twenty-one years old when he conquered the world with the late emperor. Looking at you, you are already twenty-three, are you still?
How can you be worthy of your dead mother with this look?"
Seeing his father sad, Deng Xiaoran felt guilty and immediately said: "Dad, I know I was wrong, please hit me."
Seeing that their father and son were so sensational, Ke'er immediately stepped forward, bowed and said softly: "Your Majesty, I misunderstood. The young prince does not have any habit of cutting off his sleeves. I am a girl. It is only because it is inconvenient for my identity to be revealed, so I
Disguise yourself as a Taoist boy and stay with the young prince."
"Oh? That's it." After hearing this, the old prince looked slightly relieved. Suddenly, he looked at Ke'er's face carefully and said, "This girl, if you look carefully, she looks like a person."
Ke'er was immediately startled and lowered his head...
"It kind of looks like..." The old prince was still searching in his mind for who he looked like.
Deng Xiaoran immediately grabbed the words and said: "She looks like the deceased Queen Ling."
The old prince patted his head and said: "Yes, you see, I am old and confused, and I do look a lot like Empress Ling. I once met her once during the late Emperor's birthday party."
Ke'er immediately looked at Deng Xiaoran with an ugly face, and Deng Xiaoran immediately said: "Dad, when I first saw Ke'er, I thought it was the same. I thought Queen Ling was resurrected?"
The old prince smiled: "Nonsense, how can the dead be resurrected?"
Deng Xiaoran smiled: "Yes, so the kid thought it was magical, so he kept Miss Ke'er by his side. But because her appearance was similar to the queen's, in order to hide her from others, the kid dressed her up like a man."
The old prince nodded thoughtfully: "Well, it's right for you to do this. You must consider it carefully and not cause unnecessary trouble."
Deng Xiaoran nodded, and Kerr breathed a sigh of relief when the crisis was resolved.
Who would have thought that the old prince's next words would make Kerr's hair stand on end again: "Girl, where do you live? Who are the people at home?"
"Uh... back to the prince, my parents died when I was young, and I live alone at home. I am from Nanyu... Lizhou." I made up a random lie to prevaricate, but the old prince believed it.
"Well, I was born a little poor, but fortunately, I don't care about that. Since you are in love with my son, then stay in the palace and be his concubine. The princess must be bestowed by the emperor, so I can only
I want you to be a concubine." The old prince explained.
"Dad..." Deng Xiaoran asked dumbfounded. He didn't expect that his father would be more anxious than him.
"Of course, you're not young anymore. Although you have many concubines, you don't have a main wife or a concubine, so it's better to get married as soon as possible." The old prince choked back Deng Xiaoran's words with just one sentence.
"Your Highness... Well, the young Prince and I are just friends. I think you misunderstood." Ke'er tried her best to explain.
Unexpectedly, the old prince's face darkened: "Do you dislike the concubine and don't want to be a concubine?"
"No, no, no, Prince, that..." Ke'er herself didn't know what to say. She felt speechless at what the old Prince said.
At this time, Deng Xiaoran immediately said: "Dad, um, we are not familiar with each other yet. You want to spend some time with us to get familiar with each other, right?"
Knowing his father, Mo Ruozi, it seems that Deng Xiaoran's words are indeed useful. The old prince nodded: "Well, that's fine, let's give it a month. After one month, you two will be married as husband and wife."
After saying that, the old prince waved his hand: "I'm tired too, you two go down."
"Yes." Ke'er and Deng Xiaoran bowed politely and retreated.
"Deng Xiaoran, your father... seems to be very willing to make decisions for others." Ke'er said with emotion.
Deng Xiaoran chuckled: "Ignore him, my father is like that. I'm used to it. He orders me to do this and that every time. As a result, I don't listen to him even once."
"However, your father should love you very much." Ke'er analyzed.
Deng Xiaoran rolled his eyes: "Nonsense, I am my biological father, how can he not love me?"
"Oh, you guy, you are getting more and more courageous, aren't you? You dare to contradict what I said, I will kill you if I don't." Ke'er threatened.
"Stop talking about this, I heard that a wealthy family in Jizhou is recruiting brides today, let's go and have a look." Deng Xiaoran knew that Ke'er liked the excitement, so he suggested it.
Sure enough, Ke'er nodded immediately: "Okay, okay, let's go now."
With that said, the two of them walked towards South Street. Before they got closer, they saw many people surrounding them. Ke'er curiously pulled one of them over and asked, "Brother, which girl is this looking for?"
The man turned back and looked at Ke'er with disdain: "Are you from outside? You don't know this. This is the daughter of our first foreign member in Yizhou, Gao Yingying."
"Oh? What are the requirements?" Ke'er suddenly became interested.
"It's very simple. It's just a pair of couplets, but it's very difficult because you have to match the three couplets produced by the lady to pass the test. I heard that all the literati in Yizhou came, but no one could solve it."
Ke'er smiled: "Ah? Really? I'm very interested."
After saying that, the two people immediately squeezed in with the crowd. Someone recognized Deng Xiaoran and immediately gave way. They saw a woman in red standing on the central pavilion. The woman was extremely delicate and beautiful, but she had an indifferent look on her face.
, noble and proud, seeing her, Ke'er suddenly thought of Shangguan Qiushui, but the only difference between this woman and Shangguan Qiushui was that she did not have Shangguan Qiushui's morbid beauty.
At this time, an official's son saw Deng Xiaoran and immediately ran over to flatter him: "Little prince, you are always joining in the fun."
"Yes." Deng Xiaoran agreed vaguely, obviously not wanting to pay attention to him, but he couldn't see the expression on his face, and kept saying: "Miss Gao Yingying, she is both talented and beautiful, and she has long been known to everyone in Yizhou.
I know, it seems that you are the best match for the young prince, you two are simply a golden boy and a beautiful girl."
Before Deng Xiaoran could say anything, Gao Yingying spoke first: "There is only one rule for Yingying to ask for a bride, which is to make a couplet. Otherwise, even if the King of Heaven comes, I will not marry."
In a word, the choked Deng Xiaoran was very embarrassed. Although he didn't like this woman, he felt that he couldn't lose his face for such a blatant ridicule. At this time, Ke'er stretched out his hand: "Girl, if I, a Taoist priest, come out, then
, will you marry too?"
This sentence made everyone laugh, but Gao Yingying not only did not look angry, but smiled softly: "As long as you return to secular life, you will get married."
Ke'er looked appreciative: "You're so brave, so please come up with a couplet. I'm not very talented, so I want to give it a try."
Gao Yingying smiled slightly, her lips parted slightly: "My couplet is North and South, Tongzhou, North and South, Nantong, North Tongzhou."
Ke'er smiled calmly: "Reading in the Spring and Autumn Period, reading in the Spring and Autumn Period, reading in the Spring Period, and studying in the Autumn Period."
As soon as this couplet came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the whole audience. All the scholars looked at it with approval. Gao Yingying was also quite surprised and said: "It's right, it's very fair, and it's also exquisite."
"Then please tell me the second couplet." Ke'er smiled confidently.
Gao Yingying flashed her eyelashes and said: "Wangjiang Tower, watch the river flow, watch the river flow from Wangjiang Tower, the river tower will last forever, and the river will flow forever."
Without thinking, Ke'er blurted out: "Yin Yue Well, Yin Yue Shadow, Yin Yue Well Yin Yue Shadow, Yin Yue Well Yin Yue Yin Yin, Yue Ying Yin Yue Ten Thousand Years."
Gao Yingying couldn't help but sigh: "Young Master is so talented in literature."
"Don't call me Young Master, please teach me Taoist Priest." Ke'er said jokingly, causing another round of laughter.
"Then please ask Taoist Master to review the third couplet." Gao Yingying's expression was serious, but Ke'er knew that this third couplet must be extremely difficult.
"Say it." Ke'er took a deep breath and prepared to take the initiative.
