I have to admit that Princess Chiying is really beautiful, her skin is better than snow, her eyes are full of autumn water, and her eyebrows are like distant daisy. These descriptions can be applied to her. In short, she is beautiful and fragrant.
This is reasonable. Emperor Gaozu came from a noble family and had good looks, so he was Gaozu rather than Taizu. His queen was the founder of the Cihang lineage. Not to mention her appearance, she had the potential to be the most beautiful woman in the world.
In order to be qualified, Emperor Taizong combined the strengths of his parents.
Later generations of royal families naturally married beautiful women. This was passed down from generation to generation, and both men and women were beautiful. For example, Qin Lingge was praised as the most beautiful man in the world.
Therefore, Princess Chiying's beauty is reasonable. But at Li Changge's level, beauty is already a very insignificant factor. At least Qi Xuansu doesn't really care about Zhang Yuelu's appearance. Being beautiful is good, but being mediocre is also irrelevant. Of course,
Zhang Yuelu also viewed Qi Xuansu in the same way, and the two sides chose each other.
Princess Chiying obviously still remembered Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, and she took the initiative to greet them, "Qi Zhenren, Zhang Zhenren, how are you doing recently?"
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu returned the favor and said, "Everything is fine."
Qi Xuansu winked at Zhang Yuelu. They were both women, so it would be less abrupt and less offensive if she asked some questions.
Zhang Yuelu understood and asked, "We have not seen each other for a long time since we said goodbye to the imperial capital. How is your highness? When did your highness come to Yujing?"
"Everything is fine, I just arrived today." Princess Chiying pursed her lips slightly.
Zhang Yuelu didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point, "The princess is here to see... Brother Yongyan?"
This sentence was a bit rude for Qi Xuansu to ask, but it was okay for Zhang Yuelu, who is also a woman, to ask.
Princess Chiying nodded slightly and asked, "Has Master Zhang seen Yongyan?"
Zhang Yuelu said, "Master Qingwei left Taoist brother Yongyan alone. It seems he has something to explain and should be out soon."
Princess Chiying thanked her and went to Beichen Hall.
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu looked at Princess Chiying's back in unison. They didn't know whether it was an illusion, but they felt a little lonely.
Zhang Yuelu asked, "What does Li Yongyan think?"
Qi Xuansu clearly had no relationship experience, but he acted like an experienced person and said with emotion, "Women always like bad men, and men can't escape bad women. Maybe Li Yongyan prefers witches and witches, and doesn't like this kind of royal etiquette."
A decent woman who has been trained."
Zhang Yuelu said, "Then I have to ask, according to Mr. Qi's high opinion, who is your bad woman? Am I a bad woman? Or, are you not a man?"
These three consecutive questions are too sharp.
Qi Xuansu was stunned for a moment and replied, "You are a bad girl."
Man, a good woman wouldn’t ask that.”
Zhang Yuelu smiled instead of getting angry, "Then you are no longer a good person."
Qi Xuansu was as unreasonable as Xiao Yin, "Did I say I'm a good person?"
Zhang Yuelu said, "Let's go, Mr. Bad Guy."
The cars of all the masters were parked outside, and everyone left Beichen Hall and took their cars to leave.
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were riding in the same car and set a restriction. Zhang Yuelu then said, "Tell me the result of your conversation with Master Donghua."
Qi Xuansu said, "One good news, one bad news."
Zhang Yuelu was very cooperative this time, "Let me tell you the good news first."
Qi Xuansu said, "The good news is that Master Donghua is willing to help."
Zhang Yuelu was not surprised, "But what?"
Qi Xuansu said slowly, "Master Donghua has a condition, which is difficult to say and easy to say, and that is to become a disciple."
Zhang Yuelu was stunned for a moment, "Master Donghua's reaction is so quick."
Qi Xuansu said, "Don't take it seriously. If I become a disciple and we become Taoist couples, and Master Cihang is my mother-in-law, then who is Master Donghua to you?"
"Father." Zhang Yuelu joked, "Then I'm really going to have a headache. Qiniang is the mother-in-law, and Donghua Zhenren is the father-in-law. This 'blessing' is a bit big. I thought it was you, a poor boy, who bravely entered the Zhang family's mansion to become a son-in-law.
, in the end I found out that it was me, a little village girl, who married into a wealthy family and set the rules."
Qi Xuansu said, "It seems that you are in a good mood today and you will take the initiative to make jokes instead of pretending to be the second seat?"
Zhang Yuelu rolled his eyes at him.
Qi Xuansu brought the conversation back to the topic and asked, "What do you think?"
Zhang Yuelu pondered for a moment and said, "I have no connection with your master Qi Haoran, and naturally there is no relationship, so I look at this matter from a more utilitarian standpoint. My opinion is not to live up to the name, but live up to the reality."
Woe, at this time, don’t care too much about the false reputation. Even if you still can’t let go, you still have to make a decision. After all, seeking the protection and help of Master Donghua is the basis for you to stand on the present. Of course, don’t care too much about the false reputation.
It doesn't mean that you don't care about your reputation at all. You can become a disciple, but you can't become a disciple now. When we find out about this matter and confirm various speculations, it proves that Qi Haoran has indeed betrayed you. We don't owe each other anything. We can promise to Master Donghua again.
Not too late."
Qi Xuansu said, "If this matter comes to pass, then it will not only be a matter for the two of us, but also involve the Pei family and the Zhang family.
The matter is of great importance, so Master Donghua wants me to ask Qiniang and Tianshi for their opinions."
Zhang Yuelu smiled and said, "Now it's really a marriage. I can see that our marriage will probably be postponed. It's a big difference between the Zhang family and the Yao family, or the Zhang family and the Pei family. I'm afraid we have to wait."
Only when we are clear and truly determined can we officially become a Taoist couple."
Qi Xuansu did not mention his relationship with Qi Haoran again. After all, Zhang Yuelu had said from the beginning that she had no relationship with Qi Haoran and had no intention of sharing this false master-disciple relationship.
She starts from the perspective of gain and loss. To put it bluntly, this is related to the question of whether Qi Xuansu wants to go further in Taoism. Now his separation from the Yao family is almost inevitable, and he has conflicts with the Li family. On the Zhang family's side
Even Zhang Yuelu was on guard, let alone Qi Xuansu, an outsider like his son-in-law.
Who else can Qi Xuansu count on? That is Zhenren Donghua.
Therefore, Zhang Yuelu's words were both tactful and polite.
No matter what you think, you must make a decision quickly. Don't hesitate again. In the sad state yesterday, have a drink, Lao Zhang gently coaxed and comforted you, and forget it. Don't dwell on it.
If you can't extricate yourself from it, don't mention it again.
Whether you can let it go or not, you have to let it go and face the future with a new look.
After all, this is a power struggle, and it is often life-and-death. It is a war between several forces competing for the highest power and the greatest interests. It is not about romance, love and love, and there is not so much leisure and leisure that will make you miserable.
, Sad, sad, sad, sad.
Endure what ordinary people cannot endure, achieve what ordinary people cannot achieve, and achieve what ordinary people cannot achieve.
Zhang Yuelu is both gentle and strict at this point.
Last night I gently comforted Qi Xuansu, but today I have to remind Qi Xuansu sternly.
She has never been Qi Xuansu's vassal, she is Qi Xuansu's staunch ally, mastermind, and future Taoist companion.
Qi Xuansu nodded and said, "You are right. Even if it is not for anything else but just for our marriage, I have to make up my mind early."
While he was talking, he had already arrived at Taishangfang.
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu walked into Zhang Yuelu's small home here. They entered one after the other and each took off their crowns and crane cloaks.
"Qiniang, what are you going to do?" Zhang Yuelu asked as he changed out of his cloud shoes.
Qi Xuansu paused, "On this point, Master Donghua and I agree. Master Donghua thinks Qiniang is reliable, and I also think Qiniang is reliable."
Zhang Yuelu walked into the living room, "I hope so too. If Qiniang can't be trusted anymore,
Then your spiritual world will collapse."
Qi Xuansu did not say harshly, "I will doubt the meaning of my entire life."
This small house was designed by Zhang Yuyue herself. It focuses on a combination of east and west, neither fish nor fowl. The backyard is adjacent to Fenglin Island. The bedroom is in a typical Central Plains style with carved windows, while the living room is in a Western style and complete set.
Sofa, large coffee table, floor lamp, crystal chandelier, and even a wine cabinet.
Zhang Yuelu came to the wine cabinet, opened a bottle of wine, poured it into an eight-sided glass, and drank slowly.
Of course, it is not "drunk life and dreaming of death". Zhang Yuelu's finances cannot support it if he drinks "drunk life and dreaming of death" every day. It's just ordinary wine. To Zhang Yuelu, it is just water with some taste.
Qi Xuansu didn't drink, but thought, one smokes and the other drinks, it's really amazing.
Under the guidance of these two role models, would Xiao Yin smoke and drink at the same time?
Also, maybe I learned this habit of collecting cards from him.
In Qi Xuansu's mind, a scene suddenly appeared. Xiao Yin, who was short-handed and short-footed, was wearing large sunglasses, holding a long cigarette rod in his left hand, touching a handful of cards with his right hand, and hanging a wine gourd on his waist, strutting
.
This picture is so "beautiful".
While Qi Xuansu was lost in thought, Zhang Yuelu sat on the sofa diagonally opposite Qi Xuansu and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Qi Xuansu replied truthfully, "I was thinking that you and Qiniang are just smoking and drinking together. Xiao Yin's future is worrying if he follows you two."
Zhang Yuelu couldn't help laughing and said, "Tianyuan, are you trying to persuade me to quit drinking? This is my only hobby."
Qi Xuansu waved his hands and said, "I don't mean that."
Then Qi Xuansu changed the topic, "Are we now... the kind of 'living together' that others say?"
Zhang Yuelu glanced at him with a half-smile, "What do you want to do?"
Qi Xuansu pretended to be casual and said, "It's getting late, where should I sleep tonight?"
Zhang Yuelu stretched out his hand and pointed, "You can sleep in Zhang Yuyue's room."
"No, this is other women's boudoir, don't you mind?" Qi Xuansu pretended.
Zhang Yuelu said indifferently, "I don't mind. All her personal belongings have been moved away. It's just an empty room."
Qi Xuansu was unwilling to accept "Last night..."
"It was an exception to see you sad last night." Zhang Yuelu remained unmoved.
Qi Xuansu sighed, "Actually, I'm quite sad now."
Zhang Yuelu picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, "Then you can slowly grieve."
