"What fight?" King Chen dragged him back: "You are a little girl, how do you fight a few big men?"
Jiu Zhu took a few steps forward and pulled the back collar out of King Chen's hand: "Don't pull me!"
Bending down and picking up a large wooden stick on the ground, Jiuzhu lifted the skirt of her skirt and rushed out aggressively.
The soft little white rabbit turned into a biting steel-toothed rabbit.
King Chen watched as she walked out of the momentum of a thousand troops alone, and leaned lazily against the tree trunk.
"My lord." An attendant who was hidden in the dark walked up to him: "This... how can I do this?"
"What else can I do?" Wang Chen saw that the little girl was only a few steps away from the men who were gossiping, "Go and help fight, all of them have brains and eyes, don't know how to use them?"
When Jiu Zhu approached the three men, they were still talking loudly.
"In terms of talent and virtue, His Royal Highness King Qi is admirable." The man in the blue shirt said loudly, "There's nothing I dare to say, King Chen is ignorant and moody..."
"Ow!" Before he could finish speaking, there was a biting pain in his back, and someone attacked him from behind!
"Who is so bold!" He jumped up in pain and turned around to see a young girl with tender skin and a big wooden stick in her hand.
"You woman, for no reason, why..."
"Tell you to speak ill of people behind your back!" Jiu Zhu picked up the stick, held it up and hit, the stick slid through the air, making a terrifying cracking sound.
The men who were beaten were so frightened that they rolled and crawled. One of the men reacted and wanted to grab the wooden stick in Jiuzhu's hand, but she was pulled on her thigh.
The boy did not cry easily, but not to the point of pain.
"Whose mad woman is humiliating Sven, and since this is the case, I will not abide by the etiquette of a gentleman!"
After finishing speaking, the three surrounded Jiuzhu in the middle and raised their hands, ready to let her know what a man is a heaven and a woman is delicate.
However, the next moment, the three of them were like rocks thrown out by someone, and they all kicked away.
The three of them lay on the ground, screaming again and again. It turned out that this crazy woman also brought a group of helpers. A group of people beat up three of them, who were powerless scholars, did they talk about martial arts
"Three big men actually bullied a weak woman." Several well-dressed men stepped forward, picked up the three of them with one hand, and said solemnly: "You are my court subjects, but arguing about the royal family, you should be What's the crime?!"
After speaking, without waiting for the three of them to fight back, after beating the three of them to the point of crying and screaming, he took out a rope and tied the three together: "Follow my brothers and a few people to go to the yamen."
Jiuzhu saw these people coming in hastily, and then left in a hurry, holding a wooden stick in her hand and looking around blankly.
"What's wrong?" King Chen took away the wooden stick from Jiuzhu's hand, and seeing that she couldn't react, he threw the stick on the ground: "If you don't agree with each other, you will fight, and it is the scholar who will be beaten, so you are not afraid of them. A mouth?"
"What kind of scholars are they?" Jiuzhu put down her rolled up sleeves: "Gentlemen are harmonious and different, today is the day to climb high and look far, and there are many people who come and go. They talk so eloquently and talk about the right and wrong of others, they just lose face as a scholar. "
King Chen gave an inexplicable laugh, these scholars are not stupid, they were meant to be heard.
"Do you know that King Qi will come to Feixia Mountain today to ascend?"
"Huh?" Jiuzhu nodded: "I saw him at the foot of the mountain, so what?"
King Chen: "..."
This girl doll doesn't look very smart.
"Their words are for King Qi, or for the people around King Qi." King Chen is an impatient person, but he is in a good mood today and is willing to accompany this idiot. The little girl said a few more words: "While there are few people and no one finds out that you hit someone, let's go quickly."
"They speak ill of His Royal Highness Chen, and I can't kill them." Jiu Zhu supported the hairpin on her temples and complained in a low voice, "They please Qi Wang, why are they bullying His Royal Highness Chen?"
Bully
The little girl's tone was too aggrieved. If it wasn't for the fact that he was the party involved, he would have almost believed that he was a poor little girl who was often bullied.
"Is it your subordinate who helped me fight just now?"
King Chen raised his eyebrows and nodded: "You help me break the dogwood branches, and I will help you fight, isn't it fair?"
"It's not very fair." Jiu Zhu thought about it carefully: "I seem to be taking advantage of it."
"It's okay, I'm a big man, I don't care about such trivial matters with you." King Chen looked around, but no one came at this time: "Who are your parents?"
The elders of this family are really big-hearted, and dare to let such a tiger-like little girl come alone to pick cornel.
"My father's surname is Ming." After the other party asked someone to help him fight, Jiu Zhu classified him as a "good guy who talks about loyalty", and was not afraid that he would know his surname.
"Ming?" The smile on King Chen's face froze, and he scrutinized Jiuzhu from head to toe: "You are Ming Jingzhou, the servant of the Ministry of Rites... Your lord's pearl?"
This was the first time in King Chen's life that he addressed Ming Jingzhou so politely.
"Do you know my father too?" Jiuzhu looked at King Chen with bright eyes.
"Slight acquaintance."
Acquaintance is acquaintance, what does it mean to have a little acquaintance? Since coming to the capital, Jiuzhu has found that her cognitive ability cannot keep up with the speaking level of the people in the capital.
"No wonder you were so angry just now, it turned out to be protecting your fiancé." King Chen was silent for a moment: "Next time you want to fight, don't do it yourself."
Living in a Taoist temple since she was a child, Jiuzhu is very ignorant about love between men and women. When it comes to marriage, she has no daughter's mood: "His Royal Highness Chen is a good person, what does it have to do with whether he is my fiancé?"
King Chen: "..."
Only the wind blowing in the mountains can understand his mood at the moment.
"Miss, Miss!" Equinox ran over with her skirt and looked at her nervously: "There was a noise from here just now. It is said that some drunk scholars are making trouble. Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Jiu Zhu winked at King Chen, motioning him not to say what he just said.
"I picked all the dogwoods that my mother asked me to pick." Jiuzhu grabbed the hand of Spring Equinox: "Sister Spring Equinox, let's go back."
The person has already been beaten, and all he has to do now is to flee the scene as soon as possible.
"Okay." On the spring equinox, Phi silk was hung on his arm instead of Jiuzhu, and King Chaochen blessed himself, took Jiuzhu's hand, and left the forest.
King Chen walked under the dogwood tree just now, bent down and picked up the dogwood branch Jiuzhu had folded for him, thought about it, and dragged it back to the palace.
"Such a big dogwood branch." Su Guifei looked at the dogwood branch in the vase on the floor, and it was rare for her son, who usually doesn't remember a piece of paper, to bring her a dogwood branch on the Double Ninth Day: "It looks very fresh. "
"Can it be fresh?" King Chen lazily leaned against the soft collapse: "This is your future daughter-in-law, who climbed the tree and picked it herself."
"Have you met Jiuzhu?" Concubine Su looked at King Chen.
"Yeah." King Chen lowered his eyelids, Su Guifei couldn't see the emotion in his eyes.
"Bengong thinks this girl is not bad." Knowing that her son was lukewarm about this marriage, Su Guifei couldn't help but speak on behalf of the little girl from the Ming family: "It seems that she is easy to get along with."
"The appearance is indeed a sign." King Chen nodded.
It's just that the melon seeds in the head don't look very good.
When her son left, Concubine Su asked the maid beside her suspiciously, "Do you like Du Qing's attitude or not?"
"Niangniang, it's a good thing that the Fifth Highness doesn't hate Miss Ming." The maid comforted Concubine Su: "A few days ago, His Highness frowned when he mentioned the marriage. Today, the servant took a closer look, and His Highness is in a good mood."
Knowing that the maid's words were to comfort herself, Concubine Su sighed, blaming His Majesty for not raising children and for developing her son into such a playful temperament.
As soon as King Chen came out of Mingyue Palace, he met King Qi who entered the palace to ask for peace.
"Fifth brother." King Qi looked at the black and red brocade clothes on King Chen's body. Among the brothers, except the fifth, no one would wear such flamboyant clothes.
King Chen stopped to look at him.
"I heard that the fifth brother's attendant arrested a few scholars to the yamen today?" King Qi sighed: "The autumn season is just around the corner, and it is not easy for ten years to be cold. If it is not a big deal, the fifth brother will spare them."
"It's really not a big deal, they're just complimenting the fourth brother that you are talented and virtuous, and by the way, they insulted me for being ignorant and inexperienced." King Chen raised his eyebrows: "The fourth brother is kind-hearted, just send someone to release them. ."
The gentle smile on King Qi's face froze slightly.
Although it is true that the fifth brother is ignorant, but as the elder brother, he absolutely cannot admit it.
"Fourth brother, let him go, I will never pursue it again." King Chen threw his sleeves behind his back, raised his chin slightly, and strode away in the eyes of King Qi and his servants.
The servants of King Chen imitated their masters, and only looked at the servants of the palace from the corner of their eyes.
The attendant of Prince Qi's mansion turned red with anger, but did not dare to say anything.
Whoever let King Chen have a favored mother and concubine, the son is the mother, and no one in the palace can afford to offend.
"My lord." The attendant looked at King Qi worriedly.
King Qi raised his hand slightly to stop him from continuing to speak: "Those scholars who discuss the right and wrong of the royal family, and who alienate the brotherhood between the king and the fifth brother, should be severely punished."
The wind blew the corners of his robe, but it couldn't make a ripple in his eyes.
Since Chongyang ascended the mountain, more invitations have been sent to the Ming family. Some invited Shen Shi and Jiuzhu to enjoy chrysanthemums, some invited them to eat crabs, and some invited them to drink tea.
There was no shortage of talented people in the capital. They neither liked King Chen's usual style, nor dared to offend Su Guifei's mother and son. The daughter of the Ming family is about to marry into Prince Chen's mansion. Whether it is true or false, as long as it is an important gathering between female relatives, the younger generation will be arranged to send the invitation to the Ming family in person.
Most of these gatherings were declined by the Shen family, until the Sun Family Mansion sent an invitation for a tea tasting banquet.
The auspicious date for the marriage of Miss Sun's family and King Qi was set on the sixth day of the winter lunar month. Now it is late September. There is only one month left before Miss Sun's wedding day.
As a scholarly family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, the prestige of the Sun family in the minds of scholars is self-evident. In recent years, the Ming family has also established its status by relying on one class, two champions, and one first-ranking talent. Compared with the Sun family, it lacks some background.
King Qi was already famous, and when he married the granddaughter of the Sun family, he became even more powerful and more respected.
Holding the invitation, Mrs. Shen turned her head to look at her daughter, who was happily nibbling on snacks, holding a teacup and drinking from her stomach, and gently wiped her daughter's mouth with a handkerchief.
"Thank you mother." Jiuzhu smiled sweetly at Shen Shi.
Shen shi gently covered his chest.
What is the maiden of the Emperor Chenwang and the Sun family, there is no good thing!
On the day of the tea tasting, the female relatives dressed up and arrived at Sun's house early, touting Sun Caiyao with flowers.
"Mrs. Shen is here."
The laughter suddenly weakened, and the smile on Sun Caiyao's face diminished slightly. She stared at the door and saw Ming Jiuzhu next to Mrs. Shen at a glance.
The blue eyebrows are like distant mountains, and the red cherry blossoms touch her delicate lips.
"Mrs Shen is safe."
"This is Ling Qianjin. She really has eyes for the stars, and the snow dyes her bones. It's such a rare and beautiful appearance."
The female relatives who were still touting her, turned their heads and gathered around Shen's mother and daughter.
Sun Caiyao pursed her lips.
Privately, these people despised King Chen for acting perversely and ignorantly, but in the matter of pleasing the future Princess Chen, no one was left behind.
She stood up and took the initiative to walk towards Ming Jiuzhu.
