It is said that when Gongsun Yingjiang suppressed her excitement and fantasized about the romantic happiness that would await her, her fiancé Xu Baomo, who had already settled in a formal marriage, was also secretly planning: "The little witch from Gongsun's family is actually going to marry this prince." Playing with raw rice makes cooked rice! Zhuiqi jumped into the lake and almost caused my son to be pushed into the lake by his own father and mother's legs and drowned!!! If my son just accepted his fate and married her, what kind of justice would it be?! As a person, Where is the dignity of a dignified man?!"
Of course, despite the violent suppression of the four elders, Mr. Xu, Mrs. Xiahou, Xu Zijing, and Nan, with his eighteen courage, he did not dare to openly resist the marriage.
Bu Nao Mei Xing system!
Don't openly ask for Gongsun Yingjiang, he can just turn around and get rid of Gongsun Yingjiang!
For example, sleeping with a lady whose father and brother are in a high position
Then wouldn't it be possible to use the power of the girl's mother's family to let Gongsun Yingjiang get married without getting married? !
And a girl who is related to the Sheng family may not be able to get the protection of the four elders of the Xu family without hesitation! ! !
Thinking of the happy and happy confinement after escaping from the dead, Xu Baomo suppressed his excitement, and on the pretext of coming to Linyuan for the first time to walk around and gain experience, he left Mr. Xu and other elders and watched the six directions. Listening to Bafang's search target, "That one is not too luxuriously dressed. I guess my father and brother in the family have low official positions. They may not be able to snatch the position of my son's head wife from Gongsun Xiaoyao's lap. Why don't I let him go first... That one doesn't look like he has a good background." It's very good, but that little enchantress who has a long relationship with Gongsun is not even half beautiful. It would be too unfair for me to give up trying to flirt with her!"
"That person has handsome features, but her skin is as dark as charcoal! I don't want her to beg you!!!"
"That one is red and tender... but! Isn't that too fat? I guess my prince's clothes fit her better than my prince's!"
"That one is too short. If you don't look at her face, you would think she is a girl! I don't have any quirks like little girls!"
"She is as skinny as a bean sprout, I feel embarrassed just looking at her... She is dressed in jewels and can't afford to eat. How come she looks like a disaster victim? It's so tear-jerking?! Tsk!"
"That's a good one! Black bun, peach blossom noodles, and a small waist that's not even tight enough! If you get it on your legs, hehehehehehehehehehehe..."
"That's not bad! That enchanting look with the corners of your eyes curling up, is very stunning like the first bloom of a peony when you smile. It's gorgeous but not vulgar, charming but not seductive. I turned around and fell asleep like hehehehehehe whee… "
"They are very that, that and that, eh? Have they also seen my prince? Are they secretly ogling me? It seems that they are on my side in Tiandu... Tsk tsk tsk! Those few, turn around and let me go Who will be the official wife? My prince has experienced the tigress Da Qiao and the little witch Gongsun Yingjiang. After such tragic and bumpy experiences, I must learn a lesson and keep my eyes open to choose someone who is truly tolerant, generous, gentle and virtuous!"
He went around almost all the places except the main hall where Queen Meng was and the seats where the Xu family was. After picking and choosing, he finally selected a few candidates... Ah no, no candidates!
Calculating the time at that time, it was already late. I was worried that if I went back too late, I would be beaten up by my grandparents, parents and mother in public, so I had to hurry up and walk back.
Since Marquis Ningwei was a marquis after all, their family's seats were very close to the front without the need for Queen Meng to take special care of them, and there were all the nobles nearby.
Xu Baomo was walking, and when he was almost there, he suddenly caught an orange shadow in the corner of his eye. Dong took one more conscious look and was stunned: beside some oleander trees not far away, there were three or four maids. Dressed girls are surrounded by two beauties.
Among them, the girl in a goose-yellow dress has a lotus face, eyebrows like distant mountains, and peach blossoms in her eyes. She is dignified in her brightness. She is a rare beauty, but she outshines the girls Xu Baomo had secretly remembered just now. .
But at this moment, she was forcibly moved away by the beautiful figure in orange beside her: her black hair was piled with clouds, her cheeks were freshly set, her lightly frowned eyebrows reminded people of the outline of distant mountains in the spring moon, and her eyes were as full as mountains. The deep pool in the room, if you turn around at will, will bring up thousands of desires.
The orange embroidered wide-sleeved short jacket and the black embroidered pear blossom fairy skirt were originally very eye-catching outfits, but when she wore them, they seemed to complement each other and were truly bright and incomparable.
The girl had her head tilted to one side and was talking to her companions. She wore a snake bun with a red gold half-moon cloud-patterned emerald jade bun just falling on her temples. The main body of the tassels on the bun was jade, as tender as new leaves of jade beads. The hair becomes more and more like a crow's wings, and the muscles are like the first snow.
Because at the flower viewing party, she was chased by her sister Xu Caikui to find Sheng Weiqiao, and thus got acquainted with Princess Deping; later, she arranged a party with Sun Yingjiang, and was visited by a group of people dressed disheveled... Xu Baomo was enjoying the flowers. Yanzai didn't see many beauties at all, but it was the first time he discovered a girl who could rival Sheng Weiqiao in terms of appearance.
And that girl is different from Sheng Weiqiao's delicate and delicate, soft and harmless, like a famous flower carefully maintained in a greenhouse; instead, she is so majestic and gorgeous, her face is stunning, like a sea of flowers blooming in the spring moon, delicate and delicate Among the beauty, there is no majesty and dazzling beauty of "Apricots Burning in the Forest".
Xu Baomo suddenly felt as if he had found a treasure, and thought to himself: "Could it be that after Tianhou was ruthless and saw that he missed Da Qiao, the tigress, he compensated me with a beauty who was too beautiful to be compared to Da Qiao?"
He was looking there intently, almost drooling from the corner of his mouth, and the girl over there suddenly felt that someone was spying on her.
She suddenly turned her head, and her eyes, which were originally a little sad, instantly turned into alienation and vigilance when facing the strange man, as well as anger and disgust at being stared at for a long time and rudely.
In the view of Xu Baomo, who is "beautiful and innocent", the defensiveness and disgust only aroused his desire to conquer. He even instantly forgot the consequences of being beaten by a group of elders, and Dong realized He straightened his robe and couldn't wait to chat up: "That young lady, Baomo in Dongxu, has a well-written character. My father, Ning Weihou, grew up in Cangwu County since childhood and came to Linyuan for the first time, so he just came here." I wandered around, but I didn’t want to get lost at that time, but I couldn’t find my parents. Can Miss Unknown please give me some directions?”
"Prince Ningweihou?" Zhao Taomei is not unruly, but she definitely has a good temper... Especially when she meets someone who is suspected of being a traitor, she has always been able to retaliate as much as she wants, but she can retaliate no matter how miserable he is. How miserable it is!
At that time, I saw Xu Baomo peeping and was caught by me. Instead of leaving quickly and wisely, he came over very quickly!
The reason why he came here was not that he apologized, but he wanted to tease him. His eyes were already sharp, but then he heard him announce his identity, and after looking at it carefully for a while, he recognized whether he had actually met him at the Flower Appreciation Banquet. Xu Baomo hesitated:
Sheng Weiqiao was so angry at Zhao Taozhuang for saying something wrong that Mrs. Sheng, her wife, and her grandson went to the Zhao Mansion to beg for silence. Although with the joint efforts of Princess Gaomi and Mrs. Qin, the matter was hidden for the time being. Look at the sleeping crane.
But Zhao Taomei was still worried, fearing that she had not developed enough feelings with her third cousin, and that because of that incident, they would drift apart.
So she didn't dare to teach Xu Baomo a lesson then. After all, did she know that the Sheng family had a very good relationship with the Xu family? Even if Xu Baomo was right about the mistake at that time, the Sheng family who had just argued with the Zhao family were not present. , if the Sheng family finds out about the dispute with the prince, they will think that Zhao Taomei is wrong about the Sheng family's dissatisfaction with the Zhao family, and deliberately targets Xu Baomo... That would be too unjust!
Zhao Taomei thought about it, but finally couldn't bear Dong's tone. Without saying anything sarcastic, she said coldly, "The prince probably didn't notice when he came over just now. There are two palace maids standing with their legs down not far behind you. If you want to find the way, , it would be clearer to ask them than to ask them. After all, Linyuan has not been open to the public for a long time. Even though they are not natives of Chang'an, they do not know the path very well."
"Thank you, Miss!" Her appearance is ordinary, except for her relatively rosy skin.
He immediately became too lazy to look, and immediately withdrew his gaze, continuing to admire the two top beauties in front of him, and said with a smile, "Miss, please remind me, Zaidong really didn't notice... I wonder if Miss can tell her identity, so that it can be easy for Zai." Keep this in mind, do you think you will repay it later?"
Zhao Taoyi clenched her fist hard, resisting the urge to give him a slap in the face, and said coldly: "That's unnecessary! The prince should not be so grateful for such a simple word, let alone the prince's retribution!"
Xu Baomo looked at her face with no trace of boredom, and felt that the story... seemed pretty good, right? !
My prince is so handsome, elegant and suave, and he is also talented in both civil and military arts. He is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he is also gentle and considerate... Why does that young lady like my prince? ?
According to my son's observations during his confinement, in Chang'an City, in terms of appearance, family background, talents, prospects, temperament, age... If he is not second to none, he is at least among the best!
The beauty in front of him was dressed as a virgin, and she was obviously not out of the court. So based on his conditions, even if the girl didn't attack him as soon as he saw her, it shouldn't be wrong for his attitude to become colder and colder, right? !
After all, Xu Baomo judged others by himself. If he was shutting up with his companions and the beauty in front of him was staring at him and actively came over to strike up a conversation, then he would definitely tell his companions to leave quickly and get away as far away as possible. After that, Happy and shut up with the beauty... The beauty can say whatever she wants, and he can say whatever the beauty wants to hear. He will never stop until he talks about the beauty outside the brocade red tent and under the mandarin duck quilt! ! !
Even if girls always want to be more reserved...isn't the difference too big
Those young ladies just now, could they take the initiative to wink at him as a sign of goodwill
Looking at what they are wearing, the lintel may not be in the east of the two people in front of them!
"Why is that beautiful young lady's ideas so weird and different?" Xu Baomo was wondering, but Zhao Taomei was already fed up with his constant pestering. Shen Dong came to him and said: "Your Majesty, please respect yourself! Don't forget Crown Prince Mingyue's. My fiancee, the Lord of Jiaxiang County, is also here, and if the prince still doesn’t come back, maybe the Lord of Jiaxiang County will ask for her!”
Ah wrong!
The problem lies there!
This prince already has a fiancée!
Girls with decent moral character will naturally exclude this prince from the list of candidates for husband. Naturally, they will not easily trick them into talking about strangers... Oh no, talk about life opportunities.
Xu Baomo gritted his teeth secretly. He didn't want to marry Gongsun Yingjiang for a thousand reasons. Even though he was forced to get engaged to Gongsun Yingjiang due to the violence of the four elders, he never regarded Gongsun Yingjiang as his fiancée. Now Zhao Taomei mentioned that he had completely forgotten about Gongsun Yingjiang!
The situation in Bu Nao fell into Zhao Taoyuan's eyes, and she became more and more disgusted. Just as she was impatiently continuing to drive people away, she suddenly felt her sleeve being quietly pulled by her cousin Zhao Taozhuang. The indifference and irritability between his brows were instantly replaced by gentleness and consideration, and he greeted softly: "Third cousin, where are they!"
Zhao Taozhuang lost no time in assisting her cousin: "Third cousin, Prince Ning Weihou suddenly came to talk to his third sister about some problems for some reason. Although his third sister reminded him that he should go find the Lord of Jiaxiang County, but If he doesn’t leave, then...?”
According to the Zhao sisters' thinking, since Rong Suihe "intentionally" wronged Zhao Taomei, when they heard that Zhao Taomei was entangled with other men, Xu Baomo, even if he was no stranger to him, should come forward to defend Zhao Taomei, right
This can not only get rid of Xu Baomo's entanglement, but also help to enhance the relationship between Zhao Taomei and Rong Suihe. It really kills two birds with one stone!
However, the development of things was completely different from what they thought: although Rong Suihe was fond of the Zhao sisters' generous support at that time, he had known Xu Baomo for a longer time; If you don't give Gongsun Yingjiang face, you don't dare to directly anger Old Mrs. Sheng... Old Mrs. Sheng is more important to Xu Baomo than Mr. Xu, his direct grandfather.
When something like that happened at the Flower Appreciation Banquet, Xu Baomo openly refused to marry Gongsun Yingjiang, and Mrs. Sheng even blocked the Xu family in the east, not to seriously bring trouble to Xu Baomo.
At that time, Rong Suihe didn't want to let two cousins whom he had not known for a few days and whom he had no deep affection for affect his evaluation in front of Mr. Sheng, thereby causing trouble for his goal of becoming the grandson-in-law of the Sheng family.
So when he heard this, he smiled and patted Xu Baomo on the shoulder, and said to Xini: "Don't mind, two cousins. Brother Wen Duan has always made jokes, and he used to tease Gua Nan Nan and the others. He probably doesn't know that we are his cousins, because They are brothers, and he regards us as his sisters, but he forgets that we have only met him a few times, and we are not as familiar with him as Guainannan and the others... Isn't that a misunderstanding!"
Did Xu Baomo notice before that Zhao Taoyi immediately changed her attitude when she saw Rong Suihe appeared? At that time, she was sighing in her heart: "I finally saw a beauty who really wanted to have legs, why did I choose to deny Heng Shu's brother?" Cousin, aren’t you a ‘cousin, cousin, born with one mistake’ kind of brother and sister?!”
Although he has never had any integrity, he has always been able to make friends, especially friends who are not brothers.
Especially when he came to Chang'an not long ago, when he was in the south, due to the disparity in family background and talents, he didn't have any real confidants except for friends who were fair-weather friends. Rong Suihe was his only real friend so far... at least he was not that good. thought!
so…
As for Zhao Taomei, is he "a friend's wife, not to be bullied", or "a friend's wife, you're welcome"
