The words of King Bei Zhan in Wangxian Tower quickly spread in private, along with his reputation.
It's not clear what the former officials thought in their hearts, but the female family members in the back house were both angry and envious, and a little bit sour. Angrily, he went to the palace to send someone off first, but his plan was in vain. What I admire is the famous Bei Zhan king, who is so considerate to the princess. Looking at the concubines in their back house who have been fighting for beauty all day, they are not angry.
Both are young couples with hair, how can the gap be so big? !
These days, many adults have returned to the mansion, and many of them have been inexplicably run by their wives. It's just that while they sympathize with the fearful King of the Northern War, they are also a little resentful: it's okay if you dare not take your concubine and say that scene, how can you make it known to everyone and tire us!
It's just that high-level nobles must always pay attention to decency. No matter what you think in your heart, you have to put it on your face. When I met the King of the Northern War, no one really dared to run on the money. They only asked jokingly, "Is the lord still going to Sanweizhai today?"
They asked yin and yang strangely, but Xiao Zhige rarely had a good temper. He raised his eyebrows and said, "No, the princess loves to eat roast duck these days."
All the adults: "… "
Xiao Zhige kept walking, and hurried back to the house. The reactions of these people were not in his mind. He is more concerned about how the new wordbooks were sold a few days ago.
Since it is necessary to create public opinion among the common people, then these words must be written in a novel and interesting way, so that more people can spend money to buy them and watch them. to achieve what he wants.
Today, the management of the bookstore came to deliver the account book, so he rushed to the mansion.
The royal study.
The manager of the Chengnan Bookstore held up the account book and reported the business status of the past few days.
"The book written according to the request of the prince was very popular as soon as it was released. Now the first batch has been sold short, and the second batch is being made. In addition, the bookstores in Changyang County, Qinghe County and other places have also sent stewards to find them. , I want to buy books in bulk from our bookstore…”
Looking at the amount on the ledger, An Changqing did make a lot of money. It seems that the newsbook is really popular—since Xiao Zhige confessed to leniency last time, the Chengnan Bookstore has not been hidden from him. But it was the first time to see the steward.
"Newspeak is so bizarre that no one questioned it?"
When the Newsbook was first printed, it was sent to the palace first. Xiao Zhige didn't dare to hide it from him this time. The two watched it together. These scholars hired by the bookstore are quite capable. Xiao Zhige only briefly mentioned a few key points at the beginning. These scholars not only wrote as required, but also wrote very wonderfully, but the content is more bold and bizarre than before, and even said It is not an exaggeration to be deviant.
For example, this time An Changqing became an immortal who went down to the world to repay his kindness in the storybook, and Xiao Zhige became a general who suffered an unjust injustice. In order to repay the kindness, the immortal worked hard to clear the grievances of the general. When he was about to retreat and prepare to return to the heaven, he was locked in the mansion by the general with a chain of gods. It turned out that the general had long been pleased with the immortal.
The immortal was locked in the mansion, and the general Yun. Yu was with the general every day. But half a year later, she became pregnant. The general was both surprised and delighted, but unexpectedly the news leaked, the pregnant immortal was framed as a demon, and the emperor personally ordered that the immortal and the child in his womb be burned to death. In order to protect the immortal, the general robbed the execution ground in the middle of the night in a hurry. Before his death, the general untied the chains that sealed the immortal's divine power and told the immortal to forget him.
The immortal naturally refused, and after regaining his divine power, he personally escorted the general's soul to reincarnation, and he returned to heaven to give birth to a pair of twins. From then on, every year during the Qingming Festival, the immortals would take their children to the world to worship at the grave of the general...
The storybook ended here, and An Changqing heard from the steward that the scholar was planning to write another biography of the general's reincarnation. If these words were not based on him and Xiao Zhige, he would definitely praise "Okay".
"There are some, but it is mostly nonsense to say that a man is pregnant." The steward bowed and replied: "But more people think that since they are all immortals, it is not unusual to be able to get pregnant, so it does not hinder us. , but a lot of customers who have bought the storybook will come back and ask when the rumor will be released."
He didn't expect to accept it so easily, but An Changqing felt that he underestimated the tolerance of the people of Yejing. After thinking for a while, he said, "That's the case. I'll ask that scholar to write a posthumous biography as soon as possible. As for the cooperation with other bookstores, you can discuss it yourself, and we can sell it without any loss..."
"I'm late?" Xiao Zhige listened for the last time as soon as he arrived.
"Almost finished."
Xiao Zhige sat down beside him, flipped through the account book, and listened to An Changqing continue to arrange follow-up matters.
Without the outsiders, Xiao Zhige put down the ledger, raised his eyebrows and said, "I said there would be no problem, but you don't believe me."
An Changqing said: "The common people can accept the story in this book, but they may not accept the story come true."
"I read and listened a lot. If you don't believe it, you will believe it." Xiao Zhige said firmly: "As long as you follow the plan step by step, they will believe it even if they don't believe it in the future."
He said it with certainty, and the wavering that appeared in An Changqing's heart dissipated again. Turning to talk to him about another matter: "The Crown Princess posted a post and invited us to have a drink and a small gathering at the house tomorrow."
Their relationship with the prince has always been bad, and they have only met with the prince a few times. The other party suddenly posted a post, fearing that the banquet was not a good banquet, and the drunkard's intention was not to drink.
The prince is the eldest brother and the heir of a country. Although they knew it was a Hongmen banquet, they couldn't refuse it anyway.
Xiao Zhige narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "If you can't refuse, then go ahead. Now you don't have to be afraid of him."
The next morning, the two went to the East Palace for a banquet together.
The East Palace was built outside the Forbidden Palace. The carriage passed the outer gate and headed eastward, and it arrived.
There was a waiter from the East Palace waiting at the main entrance. Seeing that the carriage of the Bei Zhan Palace had arrived, he hurried to greet it. After getting off the carriage and entering the palace, he followed the servants to the small pavilion in the front yard.
The banquet was set in the octagonal pavilion in the garden, with a small table inside, a few plates of delicate snacks on the table, and a small red clay stove on the side with warm wine. The prince and the princess had already arrived first, and when they saw that they were brought over by the waiter, they greeted them to be seated.
The Crown Princess smiled and said: "Because it is a family banquet, it is not too solemn, but don't be too shabby."
"How can you say shabby for such an ingenious banquet." She pretended to be familiar with a smile on her face, and An Changqing was naturally not far behind, her expression was flawless.
The four of them sat down at the banquet, and then a palace maid began to serve cold dishes. Not far away, there was a musician playing the qin. The sound of the qin was quiet and poetic.
The crown princess waved away the maids who were serving, and cooked the wine herself, took out the warm wine with a small bamboo tube, added a green plum, and chatted with them softly: "This is picked last year and then marinated with wine. The green plums that were made were taken out at the right time. Add one to this snow plum wine, and it tastes wonderful.”
"I still remember that the princess liked this snow plum wine? I specially asked Guanglu Temple to leave two altars for me. I will let you go back today."
She had a very gentle smile on her face, and every move was dignified and elegant. Just looking at her bearing and manners, she did not humiliate the name of the Crown Princess - if she hadn't mentioned this Xuemei wine again.
When An Changqing attended the palace banquet for the first time, he drank Xuemei wine. At that time, he greedy for a few more cups because he liked it. Unexpectedly, he turned his head and the prince brought him wine in the name of the crown princess, which made An Changqing disgusting.
Unexpectedly, after a lapse of two years, the old things will be brought up again.
An Changqing looked at the smile on the crown princess' face, completely unable to understand what she was doing for the prince.
Looking down at the clear liquor, An Changqing smiled lightly and cupped his hands: "I'm afraid I'm going to live up to the princess's good intentions. Last year Changqing went to Yanzhou and fell in love with the local spirits. I meet this spirit again. The brewed snow plum wine will inevitably feel boring, and it is not as good as ordinary tea."
He refused to be merciless, not to mention the Crown Princess, even the Crown Prince's face changed slightly, and he said with a smile that was not a smile: "The Crown Princess has spent a lot of effort in order to ask for this Xuemei Wine."
An Changqing smiled without saying a word, and looked at Xiao Zhige beside him.
Xiao Zhige glanced deeply at the prince, directly picked up the wine jug on the small stove, discarded the cup, and poured a full bowl of wine: "I made the emperor brother and sister-in-law laugh, and Changqing was raised by me. , since he doesn't drink, I'll do it for him. I won't mind if I want to come to the Queen's Wife."
The Crown Princess smiled again: "Naturally I don't mind."
The prince beside her looked gloomy, but he didn't say anything.
Because of this, the atmosphere of the banquet was no longer harmonious. The four of them only ate their dishes in silence.
The Crown Princess looked at the two of them from the corner of their eyes, and saw that although the two of them did not speak, their actions were very close. For the sake of elegance, the small table is filled with exquisite cold dishes, and most of them are all kinds of desserts. Every time An Changqing took a piece, if he didn't like it, he would just take a small bite and put it back on his plate. Xiao Zhige would eat it very naturally, and then give him another.
For a while, An Changqing tasted five or six kinds of desserts, but only two of them were really eaten. The rest only took one bite and asked Xiao Zhige to eat it.
Sure enough, he was very rude.
The Crown Princess thought to herself: Not only is she slanderous, but she also has no rules at all. That is, the King of the Northern War was born in the army, so he could endure such behavior. As long as he is someone who pays attention to others, he will be reprimanded by his elders as he is today.
Suppressing the emotions in her eyes, the Crown Princess remembered the purpose of the day, she wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and said again: "I heard people say that the second brother is very indulgent towards the Princess, and I still don't believe it. I saw it with my own eyes today, and then I know it. It turns out that what was written in the book is true."
It turned out to be for this... An Changqing exchanged glances with Xiao Zhige calmly, and smiled embarrassedly: "Prince Concubine also saw those scriptures? It was all made up by the scholars, why? Can it be true?"
"I really take it seriously when I look at the people." The prince on the side took a sip of wine, looked at him inquiringly and said, "It's rumored outside that Princess Bei Zhan is a god who came down to protect the people of Daye. A pair of sons and daughters are even more When you are born, there is auspiciousness to congratulate you, which is a great auspicious omen."
"Yeah, I also heard that many common people want to offer incense to the princess's shrine." The princess stroked the golden hairpin on her temples and said to Xiao Zhige like a joke, "It's not as good as your majesty and the prince. The princess is so popular with the people. It's no wonder that the lord will indulge the princess like this."
These words can be described as murder without blood.
The four of them wore masks and were with the snake for so long, and this Hongmen banquet was finally intended to be seen.
"The people have not been educated and their knowledge is short-sighted. It is enough to take the story of the story seriously. Why does the crown princess believe it too?" An Changqing looked innocent: "I have read the story, and it also said that I know fairy magic, and I am born Got a pair of twins."
He deliberately turned his head and winked at Xiao Zhige: "... so, the little prince and the little princess also happened to be twins, and they should have come out of my stomach."
"Prince Princess said right?"
The Crown Princess obviously didn't expect him to be so messed up, her face changed for a while, but she couldn't pick up the words.
On the contrary, Xiao Zhige said: "It was originally born to you, and whoever dares to say that they are not born to you in the future, I will teach you a lesson."
"That's natural. Brother Heng and Sister Zhu want to call me father." An Changqing replied with a smile.
When they sing together, nine points are true and one point is false. Hearing the ears of the prince and the princess, it was the husband and wife who were really cunning and seized the leak and deliberately quibble.
However, this time, they only wanted to explore Xiao Zhige's bottom line. Outside, the ancestral hall of Princess Bei Zhan was about to be erected. They didn't believe that there was no Xiao Zhige's handwriting in it. After all, the princess of Bei Zhan came down to earth to bless the people, so isn't the king of Bei Zhan personally chosen by God
If it's unintentional, it's fine, if it's intentional to build momentum... The prince's eyes are fierce, he is bound to win this world, if Xiao Zhige wants to snatch it, he will not be able to tolerate him.
The author has something to say: Well, if you don’t believe the truth, we must lie to people, they are so hard to serve (trouble).
