In the tea room, Gao sighed slightly and gradually quieted down. However, some birds outside chirped from time to time. The two chatted for a long time, and the tea was cold. Suddenly, Guo Shao retched, covered his mouth, turned back and panted: It's a bit rude.
Are you okay? Gao asked with concern.
Guo Shao said: "The Prince of Wei treated me with such courtesy that I drank a few more cups and drank in a hurry. In addition, I traveled more than a thousand miles to Dingzhou and back, so I am a little tired and can't handle the alcohol. I will say goodbye to the people in the Prince of Wei's mansion and go to the ceremonial hall to rest. We will return to Tokyo the day after tomorrow to escort my sister back. Dong Zunxun will definitely be very happy to see you."
Gao said: "There are side rooms here. It's not too late to rest for a while before leaving." Guo Shao said: "Okay." Gao said again: "Please sit down. I will go out and ask someone to arrange a side room for you. Didn't the King of Wei say so?"
Guo Shao nodded, half-closed his eyes and sat on the chair, his head was swollen and dizzy, he was indeed drunk. The wine of this era was not strong, but he felt that the alcohol content was as high as that of dry red wine, and if you didn't pay attention, you would still get drunk. But he had never been drunk and crazy, either he fell asleep, if he was awake, he would definitely be clear in his mind; so sometimes he suspected that some people who beat people or made trouble when drunk might be pretending to be crazy and doing it on purpose.
Soon, a woman was heard saying, "Please come in, General Guo. The wing room is right next to you."
Guo Shao opened his eyes and stood up. When he turned to look at the door, he was suddenly stunned and sat back in his chair. His surprised action was like being shot as soon as he stood up and fell back because Fu Ermei was standing at the door.
An elderly woman is in front, and behind her is Fu Ermei.
His eyes widened. This was the first time he saw Fu Ermei clearly. On the night of the Lantern Festival, the veil fell down and he took a quick look at her. Moreover, she was covered with a silk scarf over her mouth and nose. In the dim light, he could only see half of her face.
Now, in the clear afternoon, the bright sky and the mirror-like house, there is no better way to see her than now. Her face is rounded, her hair is beautiful, her eyebrows are curved like the moon, and her nose is straight like jade. Her facial features are slightly different from those of Empress Fu. Her eyes are clearer and simpler, like a pool of clear water. The smile in her smiling eyes is not as easy to give people unpredictable pressure as that of Empress Fu. The second sister is much simpler.
Another thing is that the shape of her mouth seems to be different. The second sister's mouth is slightly upturned, which makes her look a little playful and lively. Her naturally smooth light red lips are slightly shiny in the sun, so cute that you want to take a bite of them. They are finer than any pearls and gems, and the color is purer.
She looked taller than Fu, and I didn't know if it was an illusion, but she looked taller anyway; maybe she wasn't as plump as Empress Fu, so she looked taller when she was thinner, and her body looked tighter and firmer. She exuded youthful vitality, and seemed healthier than Empress Fu.
The second sister's skin was even more delicate, white and smooth than Wen Yu's, with bright eyes, thin bones and plump muscles, and no visible teeth. Black hair, eyebrows, white skin, light red lips, and a blush on the cheeks. The colors were clearly defined and clean, without a trace of mixed colors. The older woman in front was really miserable. Standing next to Fu Ermei, she was immediately outshined.
Guo Shao thought of the difference between silk and linen. That was why the old lady looked okay, but her skin looked rough when compared with Fu Ermei, like something from a small workshop. Guo Shao thought: If it weren't for Fu Ermei's status in the Prince Wei's Mansion, no one would want to play with her; in that case, she would have no best friends or would be stupid. Which woman would want to stand under the halo of another woman all day long
The second sister was wearing a light-colored layered cotton jacket and skirt, but it was obviously not important what she wore. The waistline of the well-tailored dress, which was not tucked in, showed the curved lines. It was so smooth, natural, seductive and beautiful that it was impossible to describe it in a picture.
The second sister was undoubtedly a beauty who brought disaster upon herself, and her beauty was even better than that of the Empress Fu. Most importantly, she was completely bare-faced, like a girl who had just walked out of a dewy mountain, neat, pure, and delicate, with her hair trimmed but without any extra makeup or paint.
Guo Shao didn't believe it before, but there are really some beauties in this world who are so beautiful that they can overturn a country. They are just extremely rare, just like the kings who have prospered a country for 500 years. They are hard to come by. Fu Ermei was born into an aristocratic family, so there is no need for her to show her face in public. If she had a poor family like the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, she would have been famous all over the world long ago.
But why are her eyes a little red, as if she had just cried? Who had the heart to let her cry? I'm afraid even her father Fu Yanqing wouldn't be willing to say a harsh word.
Guo Shao finally calmed down, and the skin at the corners of his mouth twitched.
God, in the future, with billions of people and advanced television media, Guo Shao has never seen such a woman. But here he suddenly saw two sisters. The country is so beautiful!
General Guo, is it serious? I'll ask someone to help you over, the older woman asked.
No, it's okay. I'm fine. Guo Shao was having trouble speaking because he was dizzy.
At this moment, Fu Ermei suddenly narrowed one eye and winked at him. She put her finger on the corner of her mouth behind the woman and pulled it gently, revealing her white teeth. She made a face secretly, looking very naughty, as if she was teasing Guo Shao complacently.
Guo Shao thought: You are far less thoughtful and cunning than your sister to play that kind of trick on me. Guo Shao did not dare to play tricks with Queen Fu, as he believed that he would be killed by her; but his second sister was obviously not that powerful, otherwise she would not have thought that her identity could be hidden from Guo Shao.
Guo Shao stood up with great difficulty and walked out of the house. The woman took Guo Shao to a side room and said, "General Guo, you can take a nap here. After you have rested, I will take you to the guest room arranged for you in the palace."
"Okay, okay, thank you King Wei for your hospitality," said Guo Shao.
The older woman and Fu Ermei both left. Fu Ermei seemed to pretend to be a maid in the mansion. Her thoughts were too simple. Perhaps she didn't even know how beautiful she was. No matter what her background was, which master would use such a woman as a maid
Guo Shao couldn't sleep, so he lay down on a bamboo couch in front of the window. He was thinking that he must get Fu Ermei, and then find a place to hide her secretly. Of course, he would treat her well and protect her.
She was like the most beautiful flower in spring, born into this world, such a woman was favored by the Creator, and it was unjust to hurt her. Guo Shao felt that beautiful things should be cherished.
At this moment, the door creaked and Fu Ermei stuck half of her face in from the door: General Guo, you are really drunk!
Guo Shao turned over and got up: You are hesitating and I don’t know what to say.
Fu Ermei took out another colorful stone and waved it in front of her: Do you still remember me
I remember, of course I remember. Guo Shao said hurriedly, and after thinking for a while, he said, your name is Xiuzhu.
Correct answer, hehe. Fu Ermei's smile was pure, and it didn't look like she was sad at all, but it was unclear why her eyes were red.
Fu Ermei said again: There is a peach blossom forest to the east of here, do you want to go and see it
This is the inner courtyard where Prince Wei lives. It's not appropriate to walk around here and there, Guo Shao pondered.
Fu Ermei said: It doesn't matter, I am from Prince Wei's Mansion. If someone sees us, you can push the blame on me. I'm not afraid. Alang likes me very much and will forgive me because I am beautiful.
Guo Shaodao: That’s fine too.
Come with me. People in the mansion will take a nap at this time, and people who are walking around have the habit of doing so. I know how to avoid the servants in the mansion.
Guo Shao hurried out, his heart pounding, his head dizzy, he felt like a fool, his heartbeat seemed to have returned to the time of his first love in middle school.
When the two of them quietly touched the peach blossom forest, Guo Shao's heart was really pure all of a sudden. The buds on the trees were about to bloom, and there were also early flowers, white with pink, which was a very beautiful scenery. The stone road was dotted with sparse young petals. The breeze was blowing gently, and the spring light was slightly cold but warm.
Guo Shao spoke carefully and said nothing. The two walked side by side in silence.
Fu Ermei finally spoke, as if she was sighing, but her sigh was so shallow and leisurely: I just happened to feel that it was so strange, as if I was destined to know General Guo.
Guo Shao thought to himself: You were destined to become the queen, and I am the one who destroyed your destiny.
She asked again: Are you here to form an alliance with the second lady of the Fu family
Guo Shaodao: Yes.
Fu Ermei said again: "But you seem to dislike Fu Er Niang. However, the Fu family is also quite powerful. Even if they dislike the daughter of Prince Wei, they will not dislike Prince Wei's family, right?"
Guo Shao felt that this girl was simple-minded, but her thoughts were complicated, so he didn't know how to answer her. He had to change himself from a rough warrior to a woman with as much care as she could before he could understand her feelings.
After thinking for a while, he said: When I can marry Lady Fu Er, I will spend twice as much as the betrothal gift and ask for embroidered beads as a dowry. The King of Wei should be willing to give up a dancer maid.
He couldn't make his words sound too false. The marriage must be insisted on, but Xiuzhu's status should also be elevated. Otherwise, if this girl acted willfully and messed up the marriage, causing trouble out of nothing, did you treat Fu Yanqing as a three-year-old child
Wow, I'm so valuable, Xiuzhu said in surprise.
Guo Shao said calmly: There are ten countries in the world, it is worth exchanging one country for you. Do you know the Battle of Huainan
Heard about it.
Guo Shao said: If I were the ruler of Southern Tang, this war wouldn't have to be fought. I think the Emperor of Great Zhou would be willing to exchange the embroidered pearls of the Wei Wang family for the 14 states and 50 counties of Huainan. That would be great. So many people wouldn't have to die, and the world would be peaceful.
Hehe, you treat me like a fool, and treat state affairs as if they were family games. The Southern Tang Kingdom would have perished long ago in your hands. Fu Ermei just laughed, but suddenly her face changed, and she said in surprise, "Oh, what the hell, Alang, why are you here at this time? Let's go!"
