Zhang Chen originally angrily concluded that Zhang Shou and Lu Sanlang had colluded in advance, but after calculating the time, he felt that something was wrong. Lu Sanlang came out of the new house in a hurry to thank the Crown Prince for the gift. It can be said that he had just left the new house.
Not long after he came out of the door, the little fat man followed him. Since he was always entertaining guests, how could he have time to discuss it with Zhang Shou?
And the fourth prince must not have revealed his affair with him at the beginning, otherwise he would not have come to him alone, and even carefully picked up the paper ball from him. What's more, if the fourth prince had told Zhang Shou earlier, he would lead people to Lu.
How could Zhang Shou agree so readily when San Pang's new house was crowded with people? He had already scolded him bloody, right?
Realizing that the wine was probably not the work of the Lu family, Zhang Chen couldn't help but look up at the two unimportant guests who he thought were just here to eat and drink. It didn't matter, at first glance, he almost
Didn't pop his eyes out.
The three people who were sitting there when he came in just now, all of them disappeared in just a short time! Even though he was brave, he was sure that it was not a mountain spirit ghost. At this time, his scalp was numb, and he was hit by a mistake.
He turned over a plate. Just as he was hurriedly trying to pick it up, he only heard a crisp clang.
Uh, it was still smashed after all... No!
As soon as this idea came up, Zhang Chen heard another banging sound. At this time, his mind had completely cleared up. He accidentally smashed the plate. This was the second sound, and the previous one was not his!
So, as he was bending down to check the fallen plate, he soon discovered that not far from his feet, under the same table, was a smashed spoon. Obviously, this was not what he dropped to the ground at all.
Realizing that maybe someone else was warning him, he slowly raised his head and saw that he was the only one in the yard, so he laughed like he was drunk.
"Do you think I'm the God of Plague? Walking so fast? Who did I provoke? Didn't I just scold that boy Zheng Jing for causing trouble and I got a beating too! He got twenty jiji feet, so he just knelt down and copied some books.
It’s okay, how can such a cheap thing happen! Zhu Ying dared to block the gate of the ceremonial supervisor, shouldn’t he, the majestic prince, go to Chu Kuan and ask clearly?”
As he spoke, he slammed the table again, and then drank two more glasses of water, but he grinned at the unpleasant taste. The only good thing was that the wine had just warmed up and was still a little warm.
He set up a mat tent with a charcoal fire burning underneath. The weather was finally a little warm these days, otherwise he would have a stomachache if he drank like this.
But just thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a little lucky that the fourth prince's pretending to be drunk didn't work out. He already felt that the water and wine were unpleasant to drink, let alone the fourth prince? Even if he drank a lot of water, the taste would be unpleasant.
!
While he was thinking this, he stood up unsteadily, looking around, as if he was still talking about wine, when suddenly he saw a figure flashing past the door. Already wary, he came to the table opposite.
Seeing that wine was being warmed on a small stove nearby, he took a porcelain bowl and poured another bowl. This time, as soon as the wine entered his mouth, he was unprepared and choked again.
This time it’s alcohol without water... isn’t this a trick!
Zhang Chen was already full of anger, but now he was even more angry and started to curse: "Lu Sanfa, you bastard bastard!"
He couldn't scold others, and scolding that damn little fat guy was just to vent his anger! At that moment, he simply sat down at this table, drinking, randomly picking up vegetables and stuffing them into his mouth, while continuing to scold others, as if he was making excuses.
Drinking to relieve his sorrow, but as he drank two bowls of wine, coupled with the water-mixed wine he drank before, he gradually became drunk, and he actually became three or four points drunk.
And just when he was leaning on the table with some heat, he heard a voice next to his ear: "Master Zhang?"
Zhang Chen shuddered violently, but his body remained motionless. He just pretended that he was drunk and didn't hear anything. The next moment, he only heard the rustling sound, but someone came to his side. Even though he was covered in sweat,
He almost stood up, but he still tried his best to control himself to relax his body and not react to stress, but his ears finally stood up.
Soon, he heard an extremely slight movement. It was as if someone was gently opening the lid of something. He just thought for a moment and suddenly realized that the guy who sneaked in was clearly turning on the stove.
The wine jug was being heated! The suspect was probably adding spices to the wine, and he instinctively wanted to open his eyes and jump up.
But before he could make a move, he only heard a soft voice coming from his ear: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang? Alas, cold wine hurts the liver, hot wine hurts the stomach. Even if you feel unhappy for a moment, you are still young.
, you shouldn’t be drinking too much!”
Zhang Chen disapproved of this kind of preaching, but at this moment when the voice came into his ears, he felt a strange dizziness, as if he couldn't help but hum. And before he could be surprised, the next moment, the soft voice sounded again.
Got up.
"You said before that you were beaten. This was all the fault of the Fourth Prince? Well, having said that, in the final analysis, it is not the fault of the people in the Si Li Jian! There are people in the Si Li Jian who do not abide by their duties and try to
Stretch your hands out of the palace, Mr. Zhang, as a top noble, but you are deceived by them, it is unbearable!"
"No...that's right, it's intolerable!" Zhang Chen himself didn't expect that he would actually echo his words. Hearing this voice, he was very wary for a moment, but after being wary, he was frightened. Because the other party was actually
He said a lot of words to him in a coaxing manner, and he also echoed his words from time to time. His submissive state even sounded abnormal to him.
And even if he tried to refute or interrupt, it was as if his mouth and tongue no longer belonged to him, and he couldn't make any noise at all. This went on for a long time, and something was really going on in his mind.
As he gradually became numb, he heard the other party suddenly speak earnestly again.
"Mr. Zhang, you used to like Miss Zhu so much, but now Zhang Shou steals your love, but you still regard her as your teacher. Doesn't this make your loved ones suffer and your enemies happy? How can Zhang Shou really care about you?
Being a student is just a pawn! Look how beautiful Lu Zhu's wedding is today, but what about you?"
"Even Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu, who used to be your followers, have already decided to become the royal princess and princess, but what about you?"
Zhang Chen only felt that his heart was boiling with rage. He didn't care about princesses and princesses, and they were not top-notch beauties. It would be troublesome for him to marry them home and support them! Zhu Ying also mentioned several girls to him, but when he asked about them, there weren't many.
I'm interested. He's not a superficial guy like Zhang Wu or Zhang Lu who is satisfied with a noble wife. He's not a maverick and stunning beauty. He would rather not marry her!
In response to this anger, he who had just found it difficult to move suddenly got carried away and punched the table, and then yelled angrily: "That's a fart!"
And almost at the same time, he heard another echoing voice: "Yes, they have been using me!"
With the slap on the table and the angry scolding just now, Zhang Chen suddenly opened his eyes and suddenly saw clearly the person squatting in front of him. He saw the other person staring at him with dumbfounded eyes, and then he stood up and ran away. This
Suddenly, he woke up with a start, almost losing his breath and twisting his nose.
He just said, how could someone lead him by the nose with his temperament? It's amazing that this bitch was actually imitating his speech, and didn't know how to silence him. This actually led him to the ditch.
He's gone! But when he thought that he couldn't move or make a sound, he felt frightened again, and he waited several beats before roaring angrily: "Where can the thief run away!"
But when Zhang Chen stumbled out of the yard, he had already disappeared. When he was blown by the cold wind, he felt his forehead was cold because he had drunk a lot of wine just now. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to hold on to the wall next to him. But
Even so, he was still a little unable to stand as he was groggy, and he slid to the ground without realizing it.
Just when he felt that his body could not support his head and he was about to fall to the ground, he suddenly felt someone holding his back, and then an angry voice came out: "Hey, what's wrong with you?
It can’t be so useless!”
"Ah Liu and Uncle Hua are chasing someone. Uncle Hua just said that you are really good. That guy seems to be using hypnosis. Not only can you wake up on your own, but you can also almost defeat his power! You are a good man.
Hurry and hold on a little longer, I'll call someone!"
"Don't, don't call people!" Zhang Chen, who was originally drowsy, suddenly became energetic when he heard the crisp voice. He bit his tongue suddenly and used the stinging pain to wake himself up, and then he didn't know where it came from.
He struggled and staggered up. Turning around and seeing clearly that it was Zhu Ying in men's clothing, he stammered and asked: "You...you saw it all?"
"What you see is what you hear!" Zhu Ying yelled. Seeing that Zhang Chen was obviously top-heavy, she immediately looked up and shouted again. When she saw Zhan Jin and Liu Yin, who were also dressed in men's clothes, hurried in, she and
The two maids helped Zhang Chen sit down at the previous table.
Seeing that the person was not being honest while sitting, she shook her head vigorously to try to wake up, and then even reached for a drink. She picked up her chopsticks and knocked the person's hand angrily. She heard Zhang Chen gasp in pain.
Angry, she said with a straight face: "They don't know if they have spiked your wine, so how dare you drink it randomly?"
Zhang Chen had long known that Zhu Ying had this temper. Although he was grinning at this time, he did not dare to say anything. He could only smile bitterly and said: "Since you have been here a long time ago, is it possible that you have been hanging out among the male guests outside?"
"How is it possible? I was chatting with Mrs. Lu before. I heard that you and the Fourth Prince were here, so I slipped out to take a look. Then I met Uncle Hua, and then I found out that you and the Fourth Prince were hooking up." Zhu Ying said.
Not mentioning that she had told Zhang Shou a long time ago that Zhang Chen and the fourth prince were having an affair. Seeing that Zhang Chen immediately became dejected, she smiled and said, "Fortunately, you are the one who goes into battle in person today!"
"Yeah, who knew we would encounter such evil things!"
Zhang Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Zhan Jin on the side gave him a handkerchief very considerately. He grabbed it and wiped it without looking at it, then threw it away, but he still felt lingering fear: "It's really
If that kid Zheng Jing meets that guy, I don’t know what kind of losses he will suffer!”
"It's good that you know!" Zhu Ying glared at Zhang Chen angrily, then clapped her hands and stood up: "By the way, I came today and I want to tell you, don't you want to marry a stunning beauty?
I met a man yesterday. Not only is he born like a fish, but he is also ashamed of his beauty. Let’s see if you dare to see him in person.”
Although Zhang Chen still had a splitting headache at the moment, Zhu Ying's compliment immediately cheered him up. The person who could make the always conceited Zhu Ying praise her appearance was definitely a real beauty. Even if he thought that he was so beautiful in the capital.
After so many years, it was impossible for me to know anything that I didn't know, but I still immediately asked: "Why don't you dare? Whose family does it belong to? How old are you?"
"I'm not young, as old as you." Zhu Ying was shocked at first when she saw Zhang Chen, and then she was overjoyed. She said slowly, "But I can tell you, I am not a virtuous girl.
Her martial arts skills are probably not much worse than mine. Before, she cut off the ears of a bad boy who blocked the road with evil intentions and sent him to the government. Can you think about whether you are afraid of it or not?"
Isn't it, so fierce?
Even if Zhang Chen really likes girls who are unique, he can't help but feel a little cold in his ears at this time, but more importantly, he feels itchy in his heart. But remembering that Zhu Ying had never mentioned such a girl before, he still
I couldn't help but ask: "Since there is such a special girl, why didn't you tell me before?"
"That's from Tongzhou, not the capital!" Zhu Ying was so angry that she rolled her eyes at Zhang Chen, "Also, I have to tell you in advance that she was on the previous prince's list of concubines and passed the re-selection.
Because of his fierce temper, Chu Kuan specifically told the emperor that he could never choose. Anyway, I got the list of concubines from the emperor, and when I go back, I will give it to the female students, and the rest..."
Before Zhu Ying could finish her words, Zhang Chen shouted without thinking: "If nothing else, I must meet this person!"
He didn't know that it was because he had just been hypnotized. When Zhang Chen heard about Chu Kuan and thought that it belonged to the Director of Ceremonies, he felt disgusted in his heart, so he figured that since Chu Kuan didn't want it, he definitely wanted it -
—He is not a loser like the eldest prince and the second prince!
Thinking again about what people had just said about Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying in front of him, but Zhu Ying's words just now showed that she was indeed concerned about his life-long affairs, so he squeezed out a smile and said: "This matter must be done.
Yes, I will thank you very much..."
Seeing that Zhu Ying snorted and ignored him, he quickly explained: "You see, I couldn't wake up when that guy said anything else, but when he said bad things about the little gentleman and you, I woke up immediately and spoke.
Angrily! My heart is as strong as steel and my will is as strong as iron. Even if I can't trust my father, I won't be able to trust you!"
"You know how to say nice things!" Zhu Ying said casually, and Shi Shiran stood up, yawned lazily and said, "Anyway, you performed well today, so I won't let your father do this.
Got it, I won’t let you get beaten again! You know, your father told Song Tuiguan in the Shuntian Mansion Office that he has now realized a truth, beating is a sign of kissing and scolding, and it is love. It turns out that this is what my father meant!"
