The wise king drank a cup of tea and said sadly: "Well, I remember when I got drunk that day and woke up with a splitting headache, I decided not to drink too much anymore. I asked the princess to remind me all the time.
, the princess has done her best in these years, but at this time, the king... alas... there are some things that I really can't control."
Xu Qing sat aside and put down the tea cup in his hand, nodding his head to show his understanding.
Everyone has that moment in the realm of sage, and he didn’t know how many times he said it for the last time.
Can you manage it?
I can't control it!
Although the two of them were thinking about different things, the results were very similar.
We are all men and understand each other.
The king's wine was once again taken away by the princess, and the place lost its meaning for the king to stay.
On the way back to the palace, King Xian turned to look at Princess Xian and said, "What did the princess and Xu Qing's wife say and write?"
Princess Xian smiled and said: "These are private conversations between women."
When Xianwan heard what Princess Xian said, he stopped asking any more questions. Some things can only be said between women, and some things can only be said between men.
This is all normal.
For example, the wise king could not tell the princess that he planned to let Xu Qing build a wine storage room in the north courtyard of Guoshangyuan.
King Xian said: "Jade must be raised by others, and I did not expect that the princess would give the jade bracelet that she had raised for more than ten years to Xu Qing's wife, thinking that the princess would leave it to Xue'er in the future.
"
Princess Xian smiled and said: "Raising jade requires care and patience. Xue'er is usually too lively and her thoughts are not as delicate as Xu Qing's wife. I'm afraid if I didn't give it to her today, she would be broken into pieces tomorrow.
Instead of a jade bracelet for Xueer, it would be better to build a good sword for Xueer and let her play with it."
Xiao Ruxue stuck out her pink tongue and said nothing, obviously dissatisfied with Princess Xian's words.
She originally didn't like jade bracelets and other jewelry. Jewelry was too cumbersome for her, inconvenient to wear and play with. In her opinion, those things were flashy.
It would be better to give these things to her than to Sister Su.
What she is dissatisfied about is that her mother-in-law is obviously talking nonsense!
Just give it to her today and she will break it tomorrow!
The jade hairpin I gave myself last time was accidentally broken after I played with it for two days!
Where is the day?
The mother-in-law is obviously wronging someone!
…
On the way back to Andingbo Mansion
Xu Qing looked at the green jade bracelet of excellent quality on his wife's wrist. He didn't understand jade and couldn't tell the difference between ice, waxy and glass.
I just feel that this jade bracelet is crystal clear, moist and smooth, and it must be worth a lot of money.
Moreover, this jade bracelet really adds a lot of beauty to Su Qian when worn on her hand.
Su Qian felt that her husband's eyes were always on her. She was about to speak, but she only heard a voice from beside her, her husband's voice.
Xu Qing couldn't help but sigh: "How generous!"
Su Qian was slightly startled: "What are you talking about, husband?"
Xu Qing said: "I'm talking about the princess for my husband, tsk tsk, it's too generous. Such a bracelet is given as a gift, and it doesn't look like a prince at all. Madam, let me tell you, you don't know how stingy the prince is on weekdays!"
I’ll try my best to cheat you out of your money!”
"How come there are so many differences between a couple? I think the prince should learn from the princess, don't you think so, madam?"
…
The residence of the envoy of Zhao State
The envoy of Zhao Guozheng came to Kuang Zhou's residence, looked at Kuang Zhou who was sitting at the table and was getting better, and said: "Kuang Zhou, you are also a famous person among the younger generation in Zhao. Your teacher was in the poetry class.
After losing to Chu and Zhou in a row, how can you be defeated by this small setback when you are in Chu?"
Kuang Zhou sighed: "Master Lu, is that a small setback? Three poems and three words. In the last scene, if it is not necessary, he can still come up with three poems and three words. This man's talent is probably to be said to be in the sky."
It’s not an exaggeration for the god of poetry to descend to earth. There is really nothing I can do for you.”
Zhao Guozheng looked at Kuang Zhou's decadent appearance and said with a somewhat serious look on his face: "Kuang Zhou, you were the only one who lost in the three competitions. You lost to your opponent in the poem that Zhao is best at.
Do you know the consequences?"
Kuang Zhou: “If you go, come on!”
The envoy of the State of Zhao: "..."
Why doesn’t this kid eat soft and hard food?
Oh, yes, I have a good teacher.
If Kuang Zhou's teacher hadn't been called the soul of Zhao Guo's poetry and had a very high status in both the government and the public, he would have dared to talk to me like this, and I would have wanted to slap him in the face.
Moreover, he did not expect that Xu Qinglai would emerge from the poetry competition this time.
Three poems and three words, each chapter has been handed down from generation to generation.
Not to mention Kuang Zhou, even his teacher who was more than ten years younger would not be able to compare with Xu Qing.
What evil did he commit on this mission?
The deputy envoy on this trip can't be offended because he has a good father.
Kuang Zhou is just an ordinary messenger, and he can't afford to offend him!
What’s the point of being a sergeant?!
Thinking about it makes him angry, but he still feels uncomfortable because he can't get angry at Kuang Zhou.
Zhao Guozheng suppressed the fire in his heart, looked at Kuang Zhou and said: "Kuang Zhou, I know you are suffering in your heart. This last scene is not about literary grace, but only about memory. You are born with a good knowledge and a strong memory, and you have been able to read it by heart since you were a child.
Shishu, are you still afraid of Xu Qing in this kind of competition?"
"In this way, as long as you win this victory, it will be two battles in a row. You will be regarded as the greatest contributor to this battle. After returning home, I will definitely advise your Majesty to ensure that you are promoted to two levels in a row. How about it?"
After hearing the assurance from the envoy of the State of Zhao, Kuang Zhou's eyes finally brightened and he asked, "Is this true?"
Although his teacher had a high status in both the government and the public, he could not directly recommend him to avoid suspicion and could only rely on others to do it.
But now that he has lost the competition, not to mention being promoted to two levels in a row, it would be great to maintain his original position after returning to China. Now that he can be promoted to two levels in a row, it naturally makes him excited.
Zhao Guozheng nodded and said: "Of course we take it seriously."
Kuang Zhou said: "Okay, I will fight!"
After coming out of Kuang Zhou's bedroom, Zhao Guozheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, finally allowing Kuang Zhou to fight this last battle.
Kuang Zhou was a well-known child prodigy in the Zhao State who had a strong memorization of knowledge and knowledge. He could remember even difficult articles in his mind after reading them several times. It was for this reason that he was accepted as a disciple by Zhao State's Poetry Soul, but his self-confidence was dampened by the poems.
As long as he can regain his confidence and challenge Xu Qing, I don't believe that Xu Qing can beat Kuang Zhou in this way.
Thinking about it, it’s really useless. Even though I am an upright person, I have to give good words to an ordinary messenger over and over again!
This is really unreasonable!
Zhao Guozheng just returned to the room and sat down, intending to drink a cup of tea to calm down the fire in his heart, but the teapot just ran out of water.
The envoy of the State of Zhao shouted: "Come here, serve tea!"
Soon, a messenger came in respectfully carrying tea: "Sir, the tea is here."
Envoy Zhao Guozheng took the tea and suddenly looked at the envoy: "What does your family do?"
The envoy said: "Sir, I am from a poor family. I got this official position because of the divine grace from the imperial examination last year."
Zhao Guozheng nodded: "I see, then, which foot did you come in first just now?"
