Fortunate Young Gentleman

The 509th chapter of the text of Ruyi Xiaolangjun Rejection Emperor Chen was stunned and said, "Man'er?"

"Yes." Concubine Tang Hui smiled and said, "Your Majesty also knows that Man'er and Jing'er have been childhood sweethearts since they were young. I still remember that she often followed Jing'er and called him "Brother Jing". Last time we made an alliance with the State of Chu and betrothed Man'er to them, Jing'er was sad for a long time..."

Emperor Chen nodded and said, "I have indeed watched them grow up."

Concubine Tang Hui tried to say, "Then what do you think, Your Majesty..."

Emperor Chen looked at the dancer in the hall and said, "Let's talk about it later."

Concubine Tang Hui nodded, refilled his glass with wine, and stopped asking.

For the emperor of a country, speaking is an imperial decree, and writing is an imperial edict. As long as His Majesty does not refuse in person, it means that there is still room for maneuver.

For a big family like the Tang family, not refusing is equivalent to agreeing.

…

Tang Yaoyao has a special liking for temples recently. After staying at Ling’s house for only two days, she secretly ran back and took Xiaoyi to the mountain to worship Buddha.

Not only did she want to burn incense, she also prepared to donate 3,000 taels of incense money. Tang Yaojing has always been stingy with others, and this time she was willing to donate so much, which was beyond Tang Ning’s expectations.

Not only was she generous to the temple, she suddenly became generous to Xiu’er.

She gave Xiu’er one piece after another of the best rouge and powder, high-quality fabrics, and precious jewelry worth hundreds or thousands of taels. The envious Qing’er’s eyes were green these two days.

Tang Ning walked into the yard, looked at Qing'er who was in a daze, and asked: "Qing'er, do you know what Yaoyao and the young lady have been doing in the temple these days?"

Qing'er held her chin with one hand and said: "Sister Yaoyao worships Yue Lao, the young lady worships Guanyin, and Sister Xiaoru also worships Guanyin..."

Tang Ning shook his head. They would rather believe in Yue Lao and Guanyin than in him, a living person. Humans always like to seek far away instead of near. Whether it is seeking marriage or seeking children, it is obviously more useful to ask him than to ask for blessings from gods and Buddhas.

They all left, and Tang Ning had nothing to do. He looked at Qing'er and said: "Let's go, the son-in-law will take you to the street to buy things."

Qing'er's spirits immediately lifted up and said: "Really!"

Tang Ning nodded and said: "Buy whatever you want today."

In order to take care of Qing'er's pitiful little heart and not be jealous of Xiu'er, Tang Ning decided to take her out for a walk. After all, they are all his maids and he can't be partial to one over the other.

"Son-in-law, how about this color of rouge?"

"Buy."

"Son-in-law, this bracelet is so beautiful."

"Buy."

"Son-in-law..."

"I'll buy them all."

...

Shopping is probably something that can make women excited at any time, no matter if they are big women or small women. When Tang Ning was shopping with Qing'er in a jewelry store, he found a very beautiful hairpin. It was exquisitely crafted and looked elegant. It was very suitable for Zhao Man. He picked it up, but before he could speak, a figure walked up from behind him and said lightly: "The shopkeeper , how much is this hairpin?"

The shopkeeper of the jewelry store looked at the young man and said, "Sir, I'm sorry, this guest was the first to like this hairpin."

The young man said calmly, "He just picked it up and didn't say he wanted to buy it. I'll pay double the price."

Tang Ning looked at Tang Jing, shook his head, and said, "Give it to him. The workmanship of this hairpin is just a little bit worse. I want the one next to it."

When he put it down and reached out to take another one, Tang Jing had already reached out and picked it up first, saying calmly: The workmanship of the previous one was not good, I want this one."

Tang Ning looked at the shopkeeper and said, "I'll pay double the price."

Tang Jing said, "Four times."

Tang Ning thought about it and said, "Five times."

Tang Jing said without hesitation, "Ten times!"

"It's yours." Tang Ning looked at him, picked up the first hairpin, handed it to the shopkeeper, and said, "Pack it up. "

Tang Jing was stunned for a moment, and then his face became completely gloomy.

Tang Ning put away the hairpin, paid the bill, and shook his head gently.

The eldest son of the Tang family actually played such a childish trick. He had a grudge against the Tang family, but he had no grudge against Tang Jing personally.

But he even wanted to go against him for such a small matter, as if there was a hatred between the two of them, such as the murder of his father and the seizure of his wife. How could such a narrow-minded person become the heir of such a powerful family as the Tang family?

Tang Ning turned around, waved his hand, and said, "Qing'er, let's go."

The owner of the jewelry store looked at Tang Jing and asked tentatively, "Sir, do you still want this hairpin?"

Tang Jing's face was gloomy, and he said, "Take out the best hairpin in your store, which is better than the one that the man just took away! "

The shopkeeper's face was immediately full of smiles, and he said: "Sir, wait a moment, although the hairpin is of high quality, you can tell at a glance that you are a distinguished person. Our store has a treasure that is the most precious thing in the store. Ordinary people would not take it out. There is only this one..."

A moment later, Tang Jing walked out of the jewelry store. The shopkeeper sat at the counter, counting the banknotes with shining eyes.

A woman came in and asked: "Shopkeeper, do you have any high-quality hairpins here?"

The shopkeeper immediately stood up and said: "You can tell at a glance that you are a distinguished person. Our store has a treasure that is the most precious thing in the store. Ordinary people would not take it out. There is only this one..."

……

Xiaoyi and the others went up the mountain to worship Buddha with Tang Yaoyao, and usually didn't come back until the afternoon. After Tangning and Qing'er came back, it was still early. When he returned to the inner courtyard, he found that Zhao Man had returned from the palace.

"You came back just in time." Tangning walked over, took out a small brocade box from her sleeve, and said, "I was out shopping with Qing'er just now and saw a hairpin that suited you well, so I bought it back. You can try it out. ”

Zhao Man happily took the hairpin and said anxiously: "What if I don't look pretty when I wear it?"

"You look beautiful whatever you wear, even if you don't wear it." Tang Ning took the hairpin from her hand and helped her put it on. Zhao Man immediately ran to the bronze mirror.

She looked at it for herself, then turned to look at Tangning and asked, "Is it beautiful?"

Tangning walked over, looked at her and said, "Beautiful."

Zhao Manxiao's eyes rolled up, she stood on tiptoes and kissed him gently on the face.

Just as a red cloud appeared on her face, there was a sudden knocking sound on the wall on one side.

When something happens in the princess's mansion, Zicuckoo will knock on the wall to remind her to go there. Zhao Man looks at him and says, "I'll go there first and come back later."

Princess Mansion, front hall.

Zhao Man walked in, looked at Tang Jing, and asked doubtfully: "Why is Brother Tang Jing here?"

Tang Jing smiled and said, "I'm passing by the Princess Mansion and came to see you."

Zhao Man said: "It seems like we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Tang Jing thought for a while and said, "We haven't met since you went to Chu State."

When Zhao Man mentioned the Kingdom of Chu, he remembered the time when he was the loneliest and most helpless. Later, he remembered that Tang Ning had gradually become a wedding messenger, accompanying her in dangerous situations to the Kingdom of Chu, and then going to great lengths to get her out of Chu. When I came back from the country, my heart was immediately filled with sweetness, and a smile couldn't help but appear on my face.

Tang Jing looked at Zhao Man's chuckle and his eyes were blank for a moment. Only now did he realize that she seemed completely different from the unruly princess before.

He bit the tip of his tongue, regained his composure, took out a brocade box from his sleeve, and said, "I have a gift for you. It is the treasure of Qizhen Pavilion. Only this kind of treasure is worthy of you." ”

Zhao Man looked at him, shook his head and said, "I can't accept such a precious gift."

"No matter how precious it is, I am willing to give it to you." Tang Jing stood up and said, "Besides, I have already asked your Majesty to propose marriage to you, and we will be a family from now on..."

"Proposing to marry?" Zhao Man looked at him, couldn't help but take a step back, and said: "I'm sorry, brother Tang Jing, I have always regarded you as my brother. I will not marry you, please leave... …”

Tang Jing was stunned on the spot, his expression changed, and just as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of the hairpin on her head, and suddenly it seemed as if a basin of ice water was poured from head to toe, making his whole body cold.

Zhao Man bowed apologetically to him and walked out of the door. Tang Jing stood there, his face ashen, his fists clenched and his nails dug into his flesh.
