"Because of your absence, I have never opened this box." Ming Jiyuan put the quaint wooden box in Jiuzhu's hand: "I asked the Taoist priest's dharma name, but she didn't want to tell me. I stayed at her home temporarily. , she didn't want to, she just said that gathering and dispersing are destined, no need to force. She also said that if you ask, you will understand."

"My two masters and I have lived in the mountains for a long time, and there are few pilgrims in the Taoist temple, but there are occasional monks passing by to spend the night." Jiuzhu touched the wooden box, her eyes full of love: "They come and go freely, pity the old and cherish the weak but do not like to stay. Name. It must be the two masters who learned that the Taoist priest was going to pass through the capital, and asked her to bring the things."

After saying goodbye to her parents, Jiuzhu got into the carriage, and until the carriage was far away, she lifted the curtains of the car and looked back, but she could still see the Ming family standing at the door looking over.

"Don't be sad, with this king, I can often take you home." King Chen took out the red seal and purse he got today, and put them in Jiuzhu's hand.

"Your Highness, what are you doing for me?" Jiu Zhu looked at him suspiciously.

"My husband's money should be handed over to the lady for safekeeping. It's just and righteous." King Chen touched his nose awkwardly: "My foxes... escorts, companions, etc., are like this after they get married."

"Then tell me if your Highness wants to use the silver in the future." Jiu Zhu put the silver in her pocket.

"If a man wants money, he can't give it casually." King Chen coughed a few times: "If I take the money and spend it randomly, you don't know what to do?"

"But if Your Highness spends the money happily, the money will be worth it. Money is something outside the body, and Your Highness is the most important thing." Jiuzhu thought for a while and added, "It would be better if Your Highness would not lie to me. ."

Back then, when he paid for his funeral expenses, he chose the smallest stingy stingy, but he could say that money is something outside his body, and the most important thing for him to spend money to be happy

How much does this silly little pig care about him

"You, you." King Chen let out a long sigh. Fortunately, the object of her marriage was him. If she married someone else, she would not only be bullied in what way.

"His Royal Highness." Jiu Zhu put the wooden box on her lap: "I want to see the gift from Master."

"Look." King Chen got up and was about to get out of the carriage: "I'll go and ask the groom to drive the carriage steadily."

"His Royal Highness." Jiuzhu reached out and pulled him back: "You sit down and watch with me."

"Okay." Chen Wang was slightly stunned, moved his body towards Jiuzhu, and sat next to her: "What good things did the two masters give us?"

Climbing up the pole, King Chen has done it with perfection.

Jiuzhu carefully opened the box cover, and there were several small boxes the size of palms neatly placed inside.

King Chen thought to himself, how many gifts were prepared

Open the first box, there are six bottles of medicine in it.

The second box, the third box, and the fourth box are all medicines, but the effects are different.

There are detoxification pills, Zhixueling, anti-cold powder, heat-removing cough and so on.

"Little Pig, your two masters are still alive doctors?" King Chen looked at the boxes full of pills. The scents of various medicines were mixed together, and the taste was a bit irritating.

"I don't know, I live in a poor Taoist temple and have no money to buy medicine. Usually if I get sick, the second master will go to the mountain to pick up some herbs and come back to make soup." Jiuzhu carefully recalled the little things she spent with the two masters: " But the master often says that the second master is a quack doctor, and I can live well because of my good physique."

King Chen was silent for a moment: "What did your father-in-law and mother-in-law think back then, why didn't you find a good Taoist temple for foster care?"

Jiuzhu smiled: "Although the Taoist temple is poor, the two masters are very kind to me."

She picked up the wooden box at the bottom and opened it. There were two letters and two silver hairpins in it.

Two silver hairpins, similar in style, but divided into men's and women's.

Jiu Zhu stared blankly at picking up the female silver hairpin, looked at it for a long time, but did not speak.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her uncertain expression, King Chen stretched out his hand to wrap her shoulders: "Jiuzhu?"

"Back then, the silver hairpin I left in the Huaxi River was of the same style, but much smaller than it." Jiuzhu handed the silver hairpin to King Chen: "Your Highness, help me put it on."

King Chen put the silver hairpin on her: "It's beautiful."

"Really?" Jiu Zhu reached out and touched the hairpin.

"When did I lie to you?" He took off his hair crown, picked up another men's silver hairpin, and fixed his hair: "This must have been given to me by Master, we are a couple. "

The silver hairpin is not luxurious, but when he wears it in his hair, it seems to be a little more royal.

Good-looking people will set off objects beautifully.

Two letters, one was written by the master and the other was written by the second master. Neither of them were long-winded. They introduced the characteristics of various medicinal flavors in a few strokes, explaining that they were very poor, and that Tilian men and women were regarded as hairpins. for their wedding present.

[Quietly in the mountains, your second master and I do not like outsiders to visit. In the future, you don't have to send money and clothes often, since you left, the consumption in the view has dropped sharply...]

Is it a bit too much to use these two words abruptly

Jiu Zhu's sour and longing feelings were only half hit by these two words.

[Gathering and parting is human nature. If you can't part with Master, just send a letter every Mid-Autumn Festival and New Year's Eve. The moon is always round, and it rises every day, even though it is separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, the scenery is the same. 】

Jiu Zhu sniffed, she knew that the two masters didn't like lively temperaments, it was only because they raised her that the Taoist temple became more lively.

After reading Master's letter word by word, she opened the second Master's letter.

[One day is a teacher, and a lifetime is a teacher. We treat you, both teachers and mothers. Over the past few months, your master has always been in front of the Sanqing Statue, reciting a sutra for you, just wishing you peace. Two months ago, another one was added for your future husband. You and Chen Wang were originally separated by thousands of miles, but in the end, your marriage was decided by heaven, which should be a blessing. 】

[The pills made by the teacher for you are all good medicines for curing diseases. You must believe in the medical skills of the teacher. 】

After reading the letter from the two masters over and over again, Jiu Zhu blinked, put the letter away, raised her head and said to King Chen, "Your Highness, the two masters said that our marriage is determined by heaven."

"Royal Father is the Son of Heaven, and the imperial decree he gave us to get married is indeed the destiny of marriage." Even though he was separated from the two masters by 108,000 miles, King Chen still chose to flatter him: "The two masters are really masters, even It all counts.”

"The medicine that Master refines must be a rare good thing in the world." King Chen put away the medicine and said solemnly, "I must keep it well."

Jiuzhu: "…"

She didn't know if it was an expert, but the second master's cooking was particularly unpalatable, and the herbs he boiled were also very bitter. But looking at His Highness's solemn expression, Jiuzhu couldn't beat him, so she nodded and said, "Well, put it away."

No matter how effective this pill is, it is Master's intention, how she is willing to put it randomly.

As soon as the couple put away the gift box, they heard someone arguing outside the carriage. The quarrel was still fierce, and words such as prince and dandy were vaguely mentioned.

Jiuzhu curiously stuck her head out of the carriage window, and saw several young men dressed in brocade clothes, arguing under the stone lion beside the gate of Jingzhaoyin. Looking extremely angry.

"Yun Qirong, don't think that there are too many of you, I'm afraid of you!" The brown robe man covered his forehead and cursed: "Don't use the name of the imperial guard every day to scare people, who doesn't know that you are relying on Chen King Being a dog's leg, did you get such a real shortage?"

"What's wrong with being King Chen?" Yun Qirong rolled up his sleeves: "You really want to be, can you be?"

Yu Jian, who was not on duty today, just passed by them: "..."

There is an inexplicable illusion that he is also being scolded.

"I can't be, but you can continue to be a jerk to King Chen now?" Brown Jinpao did not dare to scold King Chen, but only dared to point at Yun Qirong's nose: "His Royal Highness King Chen has not been with you for a long time. Are you together?"

"You know what, if it weren't for His Royal Highness Chen, how many of our brothers would go to Hongwen College to deliver books?" Yun Qirong sneered inexplicably, and raised his chest: "What we, King Chen's henchmen, did for His Highness, How could you possibly understand such a waste of the royal family?"

"Many of those students are the pillars of our Dacheng future. As a distant relative of the royal family, you not only do not treat them well, but you even want to humiliate them with nasty means. How can you do such a beastly thing?" Yun Qirong deeply Knowing that doing good deeds should be high-profile, and doing bad deeds should not be silent: "Although we are idiots who are looked down upon by others, but under the teaching of His Royal Highness King Chen, we know the greatness of scholars and the difficulties of scholars, so we respect them. , yearning for them. Of course we must stop bullying scholars like you."

The people who were watching the excitement suddenly realized that it was the noble son who bullied the weak scholar, and the other noble sons who were friends with King Chen stopped him, so they started quarreling on the street.

"You are doing things for His Royal Highness Chen?" The young man in brown brocade seems to have heard a big joke: "You said that you are doing things for His Royal Highness, but you are doing things for King Chen? Like you, who would let you do things?"

Yu Jian frowned. Although Yun Qirong and his party were idle on weekdays, they never did anything to bully men and women. This person's words were a bit too much.

"What? Are you dissatisfied with this king asking them to do things?" King Chen got off the carriage: "This king needs you to teach me to do things?"

"What are you?!"

"Chen, King Chen." The brown brocade-clothed young man saw King Chen, his expression changed, he quickly put down his hand covering his forehead, and slammed it to the end: "I made a mistake, please forgive me, Your Highness."

"His Royal Highness!" Yun Qirong and his party saw King Chen appear, and they all smiled brightly: "His Royal Highness, we have completed all the things you arranged today, but at the entrance of Hongwen College, we encountered a naive person. "

After he finished speaking, he didn't want to boast: "Your Highness, the silver hairpin you are wearing today is really exquisite and unique."

King Chen raised his eyebrows and raised his chin slightly: "This is given to this king by the elders of the princess."

The young man in brown brocade shook his neck: "Your Highness, all this is a misunderstanding, please listen to the explanation below."

"Shut up, this king doesn't want to hear what you have to say." King Chen returned to the carriage and reached out to help Jiuzhu down: "Qirong, tell me."

Yun Qirong noticed that there was a silver hairpin similar to His Royal Highness in the princess' hair. He lowered his head and hurriedly explained the cause and effect of the incident. Under his vivid description, what was originally a simple matter became a pitiful scholar like an invincible bully bullying a cat, and everyone who heard it was angry.

Jiuzhu glanced at the brown brocade-clothed gentleman's shoes, and people licked the shoes at every turn. The hobbies of some people in the capital are really strange.

"Qirong, give him a piece of silver." King Chen touched his sleeve, ready to give a piece of silver to the man in brown brocade, suddenly remembering that he gave all the money to Jiuzhu, and turned to look at Yun Qirong: "Now let him Take off your shoes and walk back barefoot."

A man who has no money must know how to be flexible.

On the importance of having money.

"The other party soiled your shoes and asked him to apologize, buy you new ones, or wash them clean." King Chen said lightly, "But to have someone kneel down and lick your shoes is an insult."

"Okay." King Chen raised his chin: "This king is too lazy to talk nonsense with you, so just walk back barefoot now. This king will send someone to follow you, don't be lazy."
