"It's a deal." Xiao Yi said with a smile, "But this time, if the father loses again, it can no longer be called an 'accident'!" Can't stop mocking.
King Zhennan couldn't hear it, he just felt depressed for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "Ayu will definitely not let this king down." It's not like this rebellious son!
"Come here!" Zhennan Wang raised his voice to call the chief attendant in, and ordered in a somewhat stiff tone, "Go to Qiao's house and tell me that the king has orders, and order Mr. Qiao to go to the southwest border to appease the people!"
Chang Sui immediately took the order and went away, while Xiao Yi slowly picked up the teacup, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, his eyes looked out of the window, but met a pair of golden eagle eyes, Xiao Hui didn't know when to stop at He was on a big tree outside the window, staring at him without blinking.
The golden sun shines through the gaps in the leaves, forming mottled light and shadows on its gray feathers. Those gray feathers with excellent luster seem to be shining, and they look mighty and domineering.
Xiaohui has already grown into an adult eagle, just standing on the branch like this, exuding a fierce aura, the sharp eagle eyes staring at people looks so cold and emotionless, if it is an ordinary person, I'm afraid I'm going to be stared at all over my body, and I feel like I'm a locked prey.
But in Xiao Yi's eyes, it turned into a question: Do you want to play with me
Xiao Yi waved his hands with his free hands, meaning, go and play by yourself!
Xiao Hui's response was to raise his head proudly, then he bowed his head and pecked at his own wings with the eagle's beak, as if to say, it's really boring!
Then, it spread its long wings, let out a crisp eagle cry, and then suddenly went straight up into the sky, and the wings brushed against the branches and leaves, making a rustling sound... The sparrows and other birds around were scattered and scattered. Time, quite the momentum of chicken flying dog jumping.
But Xiao Hui was even more proud, showing off a louder cry, flapping its wings like a sharp arrow and shooting straight into the sky, full of vigor.
Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Hui's shrinking figure with a broken smile, the corners of his mouth were raised high, and his heart was bright and relaxed.
Today's weather seems to be good, what a picture of an eagle hitting the sky!
Xiao Yi sipped his tea leisurely and contentedly. After half an hour, Chang Sui came back with a stiff expression on his face. He knew that the King of Zhennan might not like such an answer, but he could only bite the bullet and say: "My lord, aunt, grandma Ask the little one to come back and report to the prince, saying that the prince has good intentions, but Mr. Qiao can only live up to it... It is really unfortunate that Mr. Qiao had a bad stomach after eating in a restaurant outside yesterday, vomiting and diarrhea, and he is still weak Lying on the couch, I'm afraid I won't be able to get off the ground for a while. My aunt can only refuse this rare offer on behalf of my son."
No matter how nice Mrs. Qiao's words are, it can't hide the fact that Mr. Qiao is not willing to go to the southwest border to appease the people!
After Chang Sui finished speaking, there was silence in the study, so quiet that Chang Sui could even hear his own breathing.
Xiao Yi sneered mercilessly in front of King Zhennan, which was particularly prominent in this quiet study.
He clapped his palms and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence to eat a bad stomach." The last word "ah" has a long ending on purpose.
Zhennan Wang's complexion was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the corners of his eyes were twitching.
However, Xiao Yi didn't care about Zhennan King's face at all, and bluntly said: "Father, you lost again!"
First it was Fang Shilei, and now it is A Yu... King Zhennan was disgraced twice in a row, let alone shamed. He took a deep breath and said forcefully: "It's a coincidence, A Yu happened to be ill."
"That's right, this person has good fortune and misfortune!" Xiao Yi said meaningfully, then looked at King Zhennan provocatively, and said, "Is it an accident or a coincidence, father, we might as well verify it before we do it." What's the conclusion? It also prevents the father from feeling that he is unlucky... "
Zhennan Wang was unwilling to admit defeat, so he agreed.
Therefore, the father and son immediately ordered their men to prepare horses, and visited Fang Zhai without warning.
Why didn't the concierge of Fangzhai know Zhennan Wang and Shi Ziye, so he hurriedly opened the door of the mansion, welcomed the two distinguished guests into the main entrance in fear, and then, the servants knelt down on the ground.
"Greetings to the prince!"
"Greetings to Shizi Ye!"
Zhennan Wang casually ordered: "Take me to the yard of your Sixth Young Master!"
It would be extremely rude for other people to say such things in other people's houses, but who dares to question Zhennan King, who dares to defy Zhennan King.
A young servant in Tsing Yi promised, hurriedly led the way, and led Zhennan Wang and his son to Fang Shilei's yard.
The servants in the yard were about to salute when they saw King Zhennan coming, and some even looked nervously at the house, secretly thinking that something was wrong.
"My lord!" A nanny came up to greet her, wanting to delay some time for her young master.
But how could King Zhennan care about a servant, and said coldly: "No one is allowed to report, this king wants to see your young master!"
The Chang Sui next to King Zhennan pushed the nanny away rudely, and the other servants in the yard were also trembling.
King Zhennan continued to walk forward. Before he entered the door, he heard a burst of frivolous laughter from the room. There were men and women talking lewdly... The face of Zhennan King was so dark that he almost dripped out. Here comes the ink.
"My lord, don't..." A female voice was as charming as water, wanting to refuse and welcome.
"It's so tight, and I said no... Come, let me give you a kiss..." Then a familiar male voice sounded, and King Zhennan recognized Fang Shilei's voice when he heard it.
Zhennan Wang's mouth was pursed into a straight line, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head, and his heart was extremely cold. Didn't Fang Shilei break his leg?! Broken his leg, he still has such a good mood!
"Master, why don't you let Xiu'er feed you wine?" Another soft female voice came next.
"Okay, ok, xiu'er feeds so much wine, master, I drank like a god..." Fang Shilei echoed intoxicatedly.
"Master, Yinger's chest hurts..."
"Really, then I will rub Ying'er for you!"
Then, there was a woman's coquettish panting...
King Zhennan couldn't listen anymore, and kicked open the door.
At this time, Fang Shilei was sitting on the Arhat bed with her head buried in the white and delicate neck of the woman on the right, while the woman in emerald clothes on his left was leaning charmingly in his arms, with a plain hand on his thigh Feeling around, it's so fragrant!
When Fang Shilei heard the movement outside the door, he immediately reprimanded with displeasure: "Who?! Dare to disturb my elegant mood, young master, I don't want to live..."
When Fang Shilei turned his head and saw Zhennan Wang and Xiao Yi walking into the room, his face turned pale and his lips trembled.
"Aunt...Uncle..." Fang Shilei couldn't speak fluently, but subconsciously pushed away the two beautiful women in his arms.
Fang Shilei never thought that King Zhennan and Xiao Yi would come over suddenly, and he knelt down on the ground with a "plop" in fright.
And although the two concubines didn't know Zhennan Wang, when they heard Fang Shilei called the other party's uncle, and the other party was very dignified, they were so frightened that they trembled all over and knelt down quickly. Fang Shilei pretended to break his leg in order to avoid the errand to the Southwest Fumin. Both of them knew about it, but they never thought that they would be caught by Zhennan King! Now, not to mention Fang Shilei, I am afraid even the two of them I can't help but be hated by Mrs. Fang San!
Thinking of this, the faces of the two charming women turned pale.
Zhennan Wang didn't bother to look at the two women, his cold eyes paused for a moment on Fang Shilei's legs and feet, and the way he knelt down just now looked like he had a broken leg. He said in a deep voice: "Brother Lei, I heard that you broke your leg, so I came here specially to see you... What?! Your leg healed so quickly?!" His voice was full of sarcasm, and his expression With suppressed anger.
Fang Shilei was even more frightened, he hurriedly prostrated himself on the cold bluestone floor, and begged for mercy: "Uncle, it is my nephew who made a mistake! Please forgive my nephew, my nephew... my nephew is..." He stammered not go down.
At this moment, there was a sound of messy footsteps outside, and Mrs. Fang San came here with a group of servants in a mighty manner.
As soon as she entered the room, Mrs. Fang San quickly glanced around the room, her eyes paused for a moment on the two concubines, and a flash of anger flashed in her eyes: it was these vixen who taught her son to be bad !
She clearly told her son to be quiet these few days and hide in his room obediently and pretend to be sick, but these foxes insisted on posting it!
But now is not the time to argue with them, Mrs. Fang San gave them a look, and then made a gesture, which meant that you still don't get out!
The two concubines trembled violently in fright, and ran out of the room in fear, without even caring about arranging their dresses.
Only the father and son of Zhennan Wang and Mrs. Fang San's mother and son were left in the house, and the other servants retreated outside the house.
Mrs. Fang San hurriedly bowed to Zhennan Wang Fu, and pleaded carefully for Fang Shilei: "My lord, Brother Lei is wrong, but it is really because he is young and has never traveled far, let alone the wilderness in the southwest. This trip is extremely dangerous... We as parents really can't bear it! My lord, please forgive me and my lord's love." Then, Mrs. Fang Third gritted her teeth and knelt down on the ground.
"Yes, uncle." Fang Shilei hurriedly said, "The southwestern border is full of bandits, and the Wuyin clan is infested. My nephew... my nephew is really..." He was obviously scared, but he couldn't say the word.
Looking at the mother and son kneeling in front of him, King Zhennan's face sank like water, and he clenched his fists tightly.
It is useless! It is really useless!... It also made me lose face in front of this rebellious son!
Thinking about it, the veins on King Zhennan's forehead twitched, making him even more annoyed. Without looking, he knew that Nizi beside him must have died of complacency. This time, I not only lost the bet, but also my face and my dignity as a father!
Xiao Yi watched for a long time with a smile on the sidelines, then suddenly took a big step forward, looked down at Fang Shilei with a smile, and asked, "Cousin Lei, do you really not want to go to the southwest border to appease the people?"
"I... I..." Fang Shilei hesitated for a long time,
He really didn't understand why his uncle would send him there, and his aunt had clearly promised that he would let his uncle give him a good job!
This is not a beautiful job, it is clearly a life-threatening job!
Luoyue City is so prosperous, he is doing well here, why would he go to a place where he could lose his life at any time? He didn't just crawl out of the mud, and still need to use his life to gain a future? He is the son of the Fang family. The cousin of the Southern Palace!
Fang Shilei gritted his teeth and said quickly: "Cousin, I don't want to go."
At the same time as the six characters fell, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop suddenly, from scorching early summer to cool and late autumn, Zhennan Wang was so angry that he almost slapped him across the face.
Xiao Yi smiled brighter, and took another step leisurely: "Cousin Lei, if you really don't want to go, there is actually a way..."
Fang Shilei's eyes suddenly burst out with hope, and he said eagerly: "Brother Yi, is it true..."
"In order not to go to the southwest, cousin, are you willing to do anything?" Xiao Yi still smiled brightly.
If Nangong Yue was here, she would be able to see Xiao Yi's malicious intentions at a glance, and Fang Shilei was so stupid that he had met the savior, nodded sharply and said: "Of course, of course!" No matter what you do, it is better than going A place in the Southwest where dogs don't shit is good!
"Okay, then I will help you." Xiao Yi smiled and suddenly stepped on Fang Shilei's calf kneeling on the ground like electricity, "Didn't you say that your leg is broken? If your leg is broken, naturally you don't have to go up!"
"ah--"
Fang Shilei let out a scream like killing a pig, and almost lifted the roof. He no longer cared that King Zhennan was here, and rolled around crying with his left calf in his arms.
"My son!" Mrs. Fang San screamed and threw herself at Fang Shilei, hugging her son distressedly while shouting, "Doctor! Hurry up and call the doctor!".
The servants in the yard also saw this scene, and they were terrified. They had heard for a long time that the prince of Zhennan was a fool. He thought he had been reborn in the capital for six years, but now it seems that his nature is hard to change!
Hearing Mrs. Fang San crying and calling for a doctor, the servants came to their senses, and a woman hurried out to ask for a doctor.
"Your Majesty, your heart is too cruel!" Mrs. Fang San was distressed, and she scolded Xiao Yi with tears in her eyes.
Zhennan Wang thought Fang Shilei was hateful at first, but now seeing him rolling all over the ground in pain, he felt a little pitiful.
He couldn't help but glanced at Xiao Yi, thinking that this Nizi was really ruthless, how could Fang Shilei be his cousin too!
Xiao Yi innocently blinked those twinkling peach eyes and said: "Third aunt, I did this for the good of cousin Lei. It was my father's intention to let cousin Lei go to the southwest, and the military order must not be violated... I kicked him just now. Although Cousin Lei has suffered a little bit, he blocked the mouths of everyone, so as not to lose the face of his father!"
Hearing what Xiao Yi said, King Zhennan felt that it was not unreasonable. Also, if anyone could pretend to be sick and disobey his orders, then where would his majesty be? Saved his face.
Under such contradictory emotions, King Zhennan snorted heavily, and flung his sleeves away.
Xiao Yi glanced at Fang Shilei who was rolling all over the ground with a smile, and then walked away.
What was left was a group of people turned on their backs.
After Zhennan Wang and his son left Fangzhai, they rode away again... Zhennan Wang was very angry, and he rode fast all the way, until he reached a bustling street, and then gradually slowed down.
Xiao Yi controlled the speed of the horse, walked side by side with King Zhennan, and asked with a smile: "Father, should we go to the eldest aunt's house again to visit Cousin Yu?"
The king of Zhennan showed hesitation. This is his last chance to come back, but it may also be to humiliate himself and make him even more ashamed...
He was still hesitating, when he saw Xiao Yi looked up to the front left, raised his brow slightly and said, "Eh? Father, what a coincidence, it seems we can save a trip." He pointed to the restaurant diagonally opposite, Several windows on the second floor were open, and behind one of the windows, a familiar profile could be seen talking loudly to several men opposite him...
"This is Cousin Yu, right?" Xiao Yi said intentionally, "Father, shall we go up together and say hello to Cousin?"
With the distance and angle between King Zhennan and Xiao Yi, of course he couldn't hear what they were talking about, and for King Zhennan, he didn't need to know either.
Obviously, the eldest son of the Qiao family has diarrhea and is bedridden, he is fine!
There is still time to come out to drink and have fun with some friends!
The more King Zhennan thought about it, the more furious he became, and he said angrily: "It's up to you!" As he said, he clamped the horse's belly and let the horse go away.
Xiao Yi looked at the back of Zhennan Wang Yuanqu, and did not rush to catch up, with the corners of his mouth raised high.
His cousins really lived up to his "expectations" for them!
Xiao Yi turned the horse's head leisurely, and said to the bamboo behind him: "Let's go to the camp!"
The hooves of the horses were raised again, and the two tall horses changed their course and galloped towards the south gate...
After about half an hour, Xiao Yi arrived at the camp in Luoyue City, and ordered Tian He and his eldest grandson Tian Detao to be summoned.
In Xiao Yi's tent, Tian He's grandson and grandson saluted Xiao Yi with clasped fists at the same time. That Tian Detao was about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was tall, dark-skinned, and handsome. He was a typical general's son, but he was so straight Standing there, he looks imposing and heroic.
"Exemption!" Xiao Yi said with a smile, and ordered their grandparents to sit down. Bamboo hurriedly served hot tea.
While picking up the teacup, Xiao Yi sized up Tian Detao indiscriminately. Xiao Yi had met Tian He, the eldest grandson, several times before, and his impression had always been good.
Obviously, Tian He has placed a lot of hopes in this eldest grandson, so he has been carefully cultivating and strictly demanding him on weekdays.
"My lord," Tian He clasped his fists while sitting on a top chair, "I don't know what your lord's order is for calling the last general and Ah Tao over?"
Xiao Yi said unhurriedly: "Nowadays the southwest border area is infested by the Wuyin clan, and many villages have been massacred, causing many people to disperse and have nowhere to return, and some refugees have become bandits. Rampaging. I have discussed with my father, and I want to send someone to the southwest border to assist the local government to appease the refugees and calm the suffering of the refugees in the slightest."
Hearing this, Tian He already understood that this matter is neither big nor small, and if he, the general, were to act, it would be like killing a chicken with a sledgehammer. Since Shizi also called his grandson Come over, the implication is self-evident.
Tian He subconsciously looked at his grandson on the right, and before he could make a sound, Tian Detao stood up neatly, then walked to the center, knelt down on one knee cautiously, and saluted Xiao Yi with his fists clasped: "My lord , my subordinates would like to ask for orders to go to the southwest border to appease the people! I also ask the eldest son for permission!"
Facing Ueda Detao's clear and firm eyes, Xiao Yi's smile grew wider, and he raised his voice slightly, and said loudly: "Okay, I will order you to be the deputy envoy of Xuanfu, and take fifty soldiers to the southwestern border of China immediately. Lingcheng, help the local government appease the people and resettle the refugees!"
"Of course, my lord!" Tian Detao replied sonorously.
Tian He stroked his beard with a smile on the side. On the one hand, he was very satisfied with his eldest grandson's performance, and on the other hand, he was also grateful to Xiao Yi for giving his eldest grandson such an opportunity. The eldest grandson is only seventeen and a half years old, not much different in age from the eldest son, Tian He doesn't expect his eldest grandson to achieve success overnight, after all, military exploits are based on life and death, he would rather him step by step and fight steadily.
This trip to the southwest seemed to be going deep into a dangerous situation, but there were nearly a thousand southern border troops stationed in Hualing City. Although these garrison soldiers were not good at attacking, they were good at defense, so Hualing City could become the defense line of the southwestern border of Southern Xinjiang. The son of the world sent the Deputy Xuan Fu envoy to the southwestern border this time. First, he hoped to stabilize the hearts of the people and let the people in the southwestern border know that the Zhennan Palace is paying attention to them; Concealing or embezzling the money allocated by the king to resettle the refugees caused great trouble.
This trip, in fact, is not very dangerous, but it can earn real military achievements!
Shizi is really hardworking!
Tian He's heart was full of enthusiasm, thinking that when he returned to the mansion, he would tell his eldest grandson to do his job well!
At this time, a soldier came in, bowed his fists and said: "Master, Qiao Shenyu brought him here, and he is outside the tent..."
Xiao Yi raised the corners of his lips, and said nonchalantly: "Qiao Shenyu disobeyed the military order, and he will be punished with thirty military sticks."
Army sticks are not ordinary boards. With the 30th army sticks, even a burly man will be torn apart and struggle to move.
The eldest aunt kept saying that cousin Yu couldn't get out of bed because of his illness, and this could be regarded as a fulfillment for their mother and child...
