The guards outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation have usually practiced the ability to see no evil, as long as they don't hinder the emperor, everything can be regarded as invisible.Today I had to pretend I didn't see it.The third prince just hit the little eunuch, and the prince hurried out to greet him.Isn't this a show of pampering or something?Even less dared to look at the prince's current expression, seeing it getting darker and colder.

Liao Xiaofu sighed, I don't know how many times I have persuaded him, and said lightly: "Your Highness, let's go, Xiao Fuzi is also talkative, and he just contradicted the third prince for a few words before he was beaten. If the emperor hears it, I'm afraid it will be bad for His Highness's reputation." Loss."

Qi Mo kept silent and smiled wryly with his back turned.reputation?He has been able to overcome his father's reputation since he was a child, how can he damage it?After a moment of silence, he suppressed the killing intent that was accidentally revealed.Liao Xiaofu had only seen the prince's amiable face, so he was also taken aback at this moment, knowing that he couldn't persuade him to go back, he secretly kowtowed to the Bodhisattva in his heart.I just hope that the gods and Buddhas in the sky can send any gods at will, but the anger of His Highness must be stopped, and the prince must not be allowed to explode at this moment.

When Qi Shang first entered the palace, he was uneasy, he was already a guilty body, he didn't know whether his father was going to kill or punish him this time, but he didn't look like he wanted to be merciful by looking at his face.The emperor was concentrating for a moment, and casually mentioned the matter of Xifan's foreign prince scolding the people of Yincheng, and first focused on the disaster caused by the recklessness of the third prince.When the prince paused slightly, the style of painting changed, and he said: "Fan Chu angrily reprimanded me for making a statement without faith, which caused an uproar in the court. Now there are signs of change in the Northern Liao Dynasty, and the courtiers' memorials are piled higher than mine. .I called you here today to ask the princes what they mean."

The third prince understood it in his heart, no wonder the fifth brother was in a hurry to retreat.If the wings are not full, if he rashly sends out troops, the emperor doesn't need to go out of his way to get rid of him.And he specially asked himself to come to discuss matters, I am afraid that he wanted to use his identity as a prince to go into battle to encourage the soldiers.

Emperor Yuan said again: "The eldest prince is concerned about the brotherhood, and I would like to ask you to lead the troops to the north, which is considered a crime. The general of the Northern Liao Dynasty was assassinated in the camp. Uneasy. If the army's morale is not stable, the battle will be chaotic. Are you willing to go out on behalf of the king and make meritorious deeds?"

After Qi Shang listened with his face down, a sneer like a sharp blade faded from the corner of his lips.willing?Could he still be unwilling?It has been known since ancient times that the Liao people are ferocious and good at fighting. The eldest prince is not so kind to ask him to take the blame and make meritorious service. Who knows what is waiting inside.But is there a second way out at this moment?But maybe it will really turn out to be a bright future, if my grandfather Lizhou Governor Tongtong goes north to produce grain, if he can get the support of the soldiers, maybe this time will be a blessing rather than a disaster.Therefore, kneeling low, the third prince bowed sonorously: "My son, Qi Shang, is willing to fight on behalf of the king, to pacify the border of the Northern Liao Dynasty, to stabilize the morale of the soldiers, and to restore the stability of Dazhao!"

"Your Highness, let's bring your servant back. Master once said that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. This truth can be understood by three-year-old children..." Liao Xiaofu looked at the two rows of guards who did not dare to look sideways, and carefully pulled the crown prince's hand. Fox fur.Who would have thought that His Highness raised his hand and took off the cloak, turned around and put it on the blue satin clothes behind him.Liao Xiaofu ran away to work today and didn't wear a robe yet. A jade belt was tied around his blue satin waist, and he couldn't block the wind even after standing for a long time.The prince took off his fox fur to warm him up, but the cloak didn't fit the little Fuzi's figure well, it was too wide to fit him even thinner, it was tight from the neck to the boots, like a stove inside.

"Don't be afraid, I have been feuding for more than ten years, today is the right time." Qi Mo unhurriedly set up the neckline for Xiao Fuzi, the corners of his smiling lips were warmed by the April wind, but his heart was as cold as a flying bird Tread slush.Qi Shang was just stepping out of the main hall, when he raised his eyes, he saw a smear of apricot on the side of the door. It turned out that the fifth younger brother had not left yet, and was tightening the cuffs of Xiao Fuzi.The servant's left cheek was swollen and high, and he was wearing the fox fur that the empress empress gave to the prince, standing respectfully and being played by the prince.

The third prince's heart trembled, it was obvious that the little pet was discouraged, but he complained to the master in a blink of an eye.It's just that a slave is a slave, so what if you sue?The prince has been under the influence of others for so many years, but he has never seen him get angry with others, so he walked over unhurriedly, and asked lightly: "Fifth brother wanted to come and stand for a long time, why haven't you gone back? "

As he spoke, he saw the apricot yellow in front of his eyes suddenly paused, and turned back to him in an instant.The third prince was slightly taken aback, another apricot yellow flashed in front of his eyes, and he was dazzled with a crisp snap.Not to mention that his face was tilted to one side, even his body staggered.

When Qi Mo turned around, the slap was so painful that the surface of his own palm ached, which showed that the force of the palm was not small.The guards were all stunned by this slap, the third prince beat the prince's servant first, who would have expected that the prince would wait to fight back if he didn't leave!The sound of that slap can be heard clearly from the air, it is very frightening.But the crown prince beat the third prince, and they dare not take care of this matter.

Qi Mo saw that the guards' faces were pale with fright, and there was some anger mixed in their angry eyes, so no one dared to speak more.He rubbed his wrists again as usual, he was really out of breath just now, his wrists were shaking in a panic.

"Prince, calm down!" Liao Xiaofu was the only one who dared to speak at this moment, and he suddenly grabbed His Highness's elbow as if he had woken up, fearing that the Crown Prince would not hit enough to hit him again.

"Calm your anger?" Qi Shang got up again, with a restrained smile on his face, with a ferocious expression that he had never shown before.Since he was a child, he has been the one with the lowest status among the princes, and he endured the emperor's elder brother and even his emperor's younger brother.No matter how calculated the prince is, it is superficial effort, but the fifth younger brother is going to tear his face and deny him today.He said again: "Eunuch Liao is really doing things for the master. Just now, the sentence that a good slave does not cause trouble for the master is just a slap? It is not a loss to have the ability to ask the fifth brother to wait outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation. They are a good master and servant who are affectionate and righteous."

The seventeen years of fake play was over, but Qi Mo couldn't help laughing, remembering what the fourth brother said, "If you hit you, I will hit you, so why don't you choose a day? Eunuch Liao is an orphaned prince." People in the temple, let alone slapping them, even if you touch them with your finger, you will be beaten at your own risk."

The third prince's face instantly swelled into a blood red, his footsteps were swaying, and gold stars flashed before his eyes.After hearing Qi Mo's words, he became sober again, and said with a sneer, "I thought the fifth brother was a shrewd person, and he beat the third brother in the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a pet. Do you think the father will punish you for being disrespectful?"

"When did Gu have a respected elder in his eyes? It would be too late to cure it. Besides, Mu Degui set up a trap to lead you and me to fight here. Gu doesn't believe that you are stupid enough to make this matter a big deal." Qi Mo replied with the corners of his lips slightly raised, his nose moved slightly, but he was still holding back the fire.Liao Xiaofu was startled when he heard this, His Highness is going to tear himself apart with the third prince, isn't he about to be framed by Mu Gonggong, just as he was about to reach out to stop him, the third prince walked up to His Highness, stroking his swollen cheekbones Asked: "So fifth brother's slap is to settle a debt with third brother?" His tone was also extremely cold.

The crown prince and the third prince looked at the same level. The usually fake and kind face was like a human skin mask. When it faded away, it made people shudder. Although they were wearing His Highness's fox fur, it was as if a layer of frost had formed all over their bodies.I only heard the prince say: "What are you talking about? The third brother has praised himself since he was a child. This slap is just to repay the slap that Xiao Fuzi gave just now. What do you think you are? After being a prince for more than ten years, there is really no prince in front of him." Is it? There are too many accounts between Gu and you, we will calculate later."

"I'm afraid that the fifth younger brother won't have a chance in two years." Qi Shang narrowed his eyes and said bitterly: "Father ordered me to go to the Northern Liao Dynasty on behalf of the emperor, which is not a ground. Could it be that the fifth younger brother can go out of the palace to kill me? Or wait until the third brother's army has neutralized his prestige and returns with a big victory?"

Qi Mo shook his head and said: "Third brother has praised himself again, you will know if you have this ability when you and I meet swords and swords." After saying that, he turned to Xiao Fuzi and said slowly: " Since Eunuch Liao is a lonely person, he should learn to be more tempered. If a low-ranking person hits you, you will return it. If a high-ranking person hits you, you will return it for you. The wind is cold again. Go back to the Prince's Hall alone." Liao Xiaofu stuttered and agreed, then turned around and left after Qi Mo.Leaving the third prince alone in the same place, his complexion changed drastically, and he was patient to the extreme.

Xiaoliangzhuang is quite lively today, not for anything else, the daughter of the He family, deputy envoy of Yanzheng, is going to marry the husband's family of the third grade, today is a joy to add makeup.

The joy of adding makeup can be said to be the most embarrassing wedding custom for women.Before the daughter gets married, she has to choose a day to add makeup, and all the wives and ladies who walk with the bride's family will receive wedding cakes.On the day of adding makeup, the bride's family will carry out the dowry box and put it in the courtyard for guests to watch.Therefore, the richer the family, the more attractive the dowry on the day of adding makeup.And the female guests who come to congratulate each other should bring a headdress and jewelry to show the deep friendship and happiness between the two families.The jewelry sent out will be sealed in the box on the same day as the dowry of the daughter of the host family, so it is called adding makeup.

The He family was also busy today. The 120-carrying wedding boxes were neatly arranged in the front yard, and even the wood was made of high-quality golden nannies. The cost was astounding.When they arrived at the auspicious time, they opened the door to welcome the guests. The wives of Guozijian Priest and Wine Secretary, Xuan Fu Envoy and Deputy Xuan Fu Envoy's family all brought their daughters to congratulate them, and many foreign officials below the fifth rank came. , it can be seen that there are so many wedding cakes sent out by the He family, presumably He Xiaoyun's dowry is even more interesting.

He Xiaoyun sat in the boudoir for a long time in a brocade jacket and skirt embroidered with gouache and tiered lotus, only accompanied by Meng Qiaoer, feeling so bored that her heart grew weedy.I can't wait to go out early to show off my dowry with a few handkerchief delivery ladies.Her 120 liters is really not an ordinary person's count, and that big piece of furniture is not counted in it.The four drawers of the lifted suitcase were covered with red silk and satin and opened open. Gold, silver, jadeite, glass and jewels are not a problem.Her 120 carry is fully comparable to the weight of others' 180 carry, and she can make her husband's in-laws look up to her when she passes through the door.

When the time came, Mrs. He's maid came in and Shi Shiranfu said: "It's the time, Madam invited the young lady to go out to pick up her makeup." He Xiaoyun could only step out of the boudoir after saying this, otherwise she would be ridiculed by the female guests for not being prudent.It would be bad if it got out to the husband's family. If she married her, she would definitely look down upon her.

"Oh, it's here, look, look." A fifth-rank lady in the family was the first to pull He Xiaoyun over and clicked her tongue: "If you want me to say that my daughter is well-raised by Mrs. He, she not only has a good appearance, but also has a good body. A lucky one. Such a lovely daughter will not let her parents-in-law steal the joy after marrying her, just like inviting a fairy back."

It was a bit vulgar to say it, but it was pleasing, and the lady behind him immediately boasted: "How can she be a fairy? From my point of view, the daughter of the He family has more than a thousand pieces of gold on her head. I'm afraid it's only the empress. Yes. It is said that the daughter of the He family is as beautiful as a celestial being, but when I saw it today, the celestial being would run away in shame, right?"

He Xiaoyun was full of complacency when she heard this, she lowered her head and only smiled, twisting her handkerchief to make Xiaojiabiyu's adoring posture.But in my heart I was really very proud, I glanced at the several maids who gave me handkerchiefs, and they were really jealous, and I wanted to stick them over and ask carefully which shop made such fine jewelry.

That's right, what He Xiaoyun wears on her body, on her hands, and around her neck today are all new styles from Yincheng Linglong Pavilion and Zanlongxuan, each of which costs no less than a hundred gold.Not to mention this pair of hair combs on the head, that can restrain the critical eyes of a woman.Don't think that these ladies and ladies come to add makeup with good intentions. Yiyi will definitely look at the boxes of dowry, and then add their share according to the thickness of the dowry, so the maids have two hands ready.

"Sister Yun'er's hairbrush is really rare, it's like an item in the palace. It's really rare." The noble lady of the priest's family praised, and suddenly said: "By the way, I was only in the courtyard just now. Taking a quick glance, is there a sandalwood box with bleached red silk and engraved with Baixi in the bag? It looks like it contains treasures."

He Xiaoyun was even more proud when she heard it, but she nodded with a blushing face and said, "Yes, that's a gift my brother prepared for me to add makeup. My brother said that he regarded me as the jewel in his palm since he was a child, so he insisted on giving me nine East Pearls. This must be impossible, Yun'er immediately shirked it, and only said that my brother's kindness and my sister understand that things are not precious, not to mention Dongzhu, even a sixth-grade bead, my sister cherishes it very much. It's just that I can't persuade my brother's kindness ...Or tell him to find nine from Manyin City, a total of 1 taels of silver, which makes Yun'er feel distressed, and can't sleep well for a few days."

Meng Qiaoer is considered to be a half-relative, and she arrived early today, and even brought the concubine daughter married by the He family back to her natal home to add makeup to her sister. After hearing this, she naturally understood how to proceed, and said: "Sister Yun'er, please take it at ease. Mr. He’s family only has you as the first daughter, and everyone is a daughter of gold, and you are the jewel of ten thousand gold.” After speaking, he turned and took the gift box from his sister-in-law and said, “There are three gifts here, Xiangyun Fengyu feather inlaid with opal stone The temple hairpin is the wish of my brother, and the earrings of the ruby ​​inlaid bead and jade pot are the wish of my younger sister. I wish my sister will be blessed, and my future husband will increase his salary. There is also a pair of elegant golden bracelets with mandarin ducks, flowers and bees, which is my sister-in-law’s wish. I've never seen such a big battle for marrying a daughter, and I ask sister Yun'er not to dislike the poor gifts of the Meng family and accept it."

He Xiaoyun showed embarrassment again and pretended to evade, but she had no choice but to accept the joy of adding makeup.Ladies and gentlemen, seeing that the gifts of Mr. Meng's family are so precious, if their own family's gifts are light, they will not be able to hold back.What's more, the He family has nine East Pearls, so what is my idea, I might as well sell it to the He family.All of a sudden, everyone came forward to offer make-up gifts, everything was good, enough for He Xiaoyun to look good after half a year of marriage.

After all the gifts were received, He Xiaoyun stood up dignifiedly with the help of her maid and thanked her for the gifts, which attracted everyone's praise for her thoughtful gifts, one in a million.The happiest time is now, so I just need to lead people to the inner courtyard to watch the wedding box.Suddenly hearing the good news at the door, the young servant sang loudly: "Congratulations—the fifth son of the Qi family has arrived with his attendants!"

"This...why did the young master come here recklessly today?" For a moment, the ladies and ladies in the room all looked at He Xiaoyun with confused expressions.Adding make-up has always only invited female guests, but suddenly the fifth son of the Qi family came, how did this kind of offense happen?But seeing that the daughter of the He family is not such a crazy and deceitful person, where does that person come from?

He Xiaoyun also panicked, and hurriedly looked out the window.This matter is about one's own innocence, which can be big or small.Thinking that there were many wives and sisters in the house, He Xiaoyun was so obedient and blessed, she was so ashamed, she just thought that she didn't know which family's young master came to add makeup, so I should ask my brother to go out and have a look.But the silk handkerchief in her hand was about to be torn, and He Xiaoyun quickly pinched the hand of a servant girl to vent her anger, and the good Koudan that she raised in her hand was almost about to break.

The author has something to say:

Longevity, the crown prince and the third prince are torn apart, and he is about to be operated on.But the third prince is not stupid, and he also has a net design.The prince is about to go to the battlefield, excited!

Liao Xiaofu: Your Highness, let's go. It is not good to fight at the gate of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Three-year-olds understand this.

Qi Mo: To be honest, Gu is two years old.

Liao Xiaofu: ...Your Highness, I couldn't answer your words, and the guards all laughed.

All the guards: Amitabha, the prince must not be angry, you can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me...
