The bitter smell of medicine lingered in his nose, he reached out his hand to stroke the medicine juice on the corner of his lips, and licked it lightly—the same taste, familiar to the bone—he drank the medicine all his life until he died.
"Elder, eldest son?" Zi Yuan, who was serving beside her, asked cautiously, "Do you want this servant to fetch candied fruit for you?"
She felt that today's eldest son was a little different, but she couldn't tell what was different.
Ji Bei looked at her with a half-smile, "No, it's too bitter."
Zi Yuan made a sound, stepped forward and said: "The servant waits for you to get up."
"No need," Ji Bei closed his eyes and leaned against the head of the bed, "Tell me what's going on recently."
"...Yes." Although she was puzzled, she still replied respectfully, "If you talk about the biggest thing recently, it is my victory over Beidi in court. Today, the class teacher Zhen Guohou returns to court, and the streets are very lively."
After a big victory over Beidi, the class teacher returned to the court, and then the sixteen generals, the descendants of Zhen Guohou, Ji Bei laughed silently. He remembered it so clearly because he carried the disease from his mother's womb, so when he heard the news for the first time, he was full of envy and yearning for the young man galloping on the battlefield, which is still fresh in his memory at the age of sixteen in his life.
Yes, sixteen years old in this life.
I don't know what God meant, once reincarnated, he was reborn as a young man, but what he can be sure of is that this time, he will never be stupidly deceived to death again, and die miserably in front of that woman with poison, let alone die... Give the huge Ji family away!
Third aunt, heh, what kind of ugly face is underneath that pious face? Who is behind you? God, he covered his eyes and smiled, he really couldn't wait - the dark tide in Huangshang Ji's house was raging, he didn't notice it in his previous life, so he will come again!
"Prepare the meal, I will go to the tent later."
Zi Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then hesitated and said: "My lord, the young prince is coming to our residence today, and the master ordered a banquet to greet him, so hurry up now..."
little prince? Ji Bei frowned.
Everyone in the Dalong Dynasty knew that Xiao Xiangnan, the seventh son of Emperor Chong'an, was the youngest and most favored prince. Because of his mother's dystocia, he was once raised by Emperor Chong'an himself regardless of public opinion. The fact that the title "Anle" is favored can also be seen.
According to rumors, this little prince who can make the emperor condescend and subdue him is the only little prince in the entire Dalong. When he said, "Beauty is beauty, it is better to have a smile." The appearance of the little prince has become the most popular topic in the market, and it has lasted for a long time.
In fact, it was only three years later that Ji Bei met Xiao Xiangnan who came to the mansion to show his grace in his last life. Those rumors are not exaggerated. Although the little prince who only met once in his memory is vague, he still vaguely remembers the surprise at that moment.
It's a pity that apart from the beauty, it's not a very good memory. Ji Bei raised his lips. The meeting three years in advance, and his own rebirth, all meant that everything hadn't started yet, the trajectory had changed, and it was completely... in time!
When he first entered the application, all members of Ji's residence were waiting at the gate.
Towards dusk, a plain carriage stopped in front of the gate of the Ji Mansion. If you take a closer look, you will find that the dusty hood of the car is made of tribute Kui Ling, which is waterproof and fire-resistant, and it is hard to break with a knife or gun.
A handsome young man got out of the car first, holding a small soft stool in his hand, and put it on the ground neatly, and then said: "Master, it's time to get off."
"Hmm." There was a lazy reply from the car, the voice was still in the ambiguous period between a child and a teenager, and it was a bit indistinguishable.
The young man who was standing hurriedly raised the curtain of the car.
Everyone felt that a piece of warm red was ignited, and it floated by. When they looked intently, they saw the little prince was bending over and stepping out of the carriage. He had black hair, white skin, and his eyelashes curled up when he looked down at the soft stool. Flapping his fan in a slightly itchy mood, he put a hand on the young man's shoulder, pointing like a jade green onion—it's admirable even without seeing his face.
—Yes, this is Lao Tzu! Luo Shutu got out of the car calmly, raised his chin: "Where is Ji Wendao?"
Looking at it this way, the young prince's pupils are obviously light brown, with a stream of light like glass, his eyes are big and round, with the end of his eyes slightly turned up naturally, coupled with a haughty expression, he looks like a arrogant little leopard.
Ji Bei thought, it seems that the little prince in his previous life was not so interesting? But this appearance, I am afraid that those who have seen it will never forget it.
Master Ji hurried forward leaning on his crutches to bow down: "Old man Ji Wendao has seen King An Le."
Immediately behind him, he also fell to his knees: "See the prince—"
"This king came here on behalf of my father to comfort the Ji family's loyalty to Dalong. My father has something to say. Since the Ji family has been an imperial merchant, it has been a blessing for me in the prosperous age of Dalong. Mr. Ji's house He has a kind heart, and the righteousness of disaster relief and food distribution has touched the world. It can be called the pillar of the country. Free."
Yuan Bao, his guard and playmate, immediately shouted: "Excuse me—"
"Thank you, my lord—" hula la stood up again.
Luo Shutu thought silently, he just hates how spicy the ancient etiquette is, is there any reason... the thought of having a bunch of formalities before the meal gives him a headache.
Master Ji saw his unpredictable expression, afraid of neglecting this distinguished guest, he hurriedly welcomed him into the mansion.
Ji Bei followed them. Luo Shutu took a sneak peek at him, and saw that he was indeed a handsome young man like Zhilan Yushu, with the charm of a sick beauty. Can be deceived by appearances.
The voyeurism that the little prince thought he was veiled in, actually fell into Ji Bei's eyes, and when he was suspicious, he thought it was somewhat interesting.
{Ding, male lead favorability +3, initial value: 5, current favorability: 8. }
After entering the table, Yuan Bao bent down and whispered in Luo Shutu's ear, "Master, Fourth Highness..."
The carriage of the dancing girl of the Fourth Highness has arrived at the house after us, let me give it to you, needless to say, I know it well!
Seeing the little prince slightly frowning his delicate eyebrows, Yuan Bao tactfully kept silent and stepped aside—this master of his family really got the favor, but how can it be easy to get the favor? The fact that it can continue until now is by no means a boast. Although the young prince is flamboyant and uninhibited, he has never been ambiguous in serious matters. It would be a big mistake to just treat him as a dude!
"Your Highness, are the dishes not to your liking?" Ji Wendao asked immediately when he saw the little prince frowning.
Luo Shutu leaned towards Le Ji, who was playing the piano, and said: "Master Ji is too worried, but this song doesn't go well with me, but who is he trying to attract with that mournful appearance?"
Hearing this, Le Ji's face turned pale, and everyone knew that this trick was definitely the little prince! It's a pity that the children who come out of the palace see the beauty's scheming the most, not to mention what to do with a bad posture, isn't crying miserably just a slap in the face of Ji's family? Both ends can't fall well.
"Your Highness! Your Highness, please spare me! The lowly maidservant..."
"That's enough, drag it on, don't dirty this king's eyes!" Luo Shutu snorted coldly.
Ji Wendao hurriedly asked the servants to cover her mouth and drag her out, then turned around and said in embarrassment: "It's really my fault for disturbing the prince's elegance, and I hope His Highness will forgive me."
"It might as well, my lord and fourth brother asked for a dancer today, and I happened to come with her, so I'll teach her to cheer her up." As he spoke, he glanced at Yuan Bao, who nodded and left.
That dancer is a member of the fourth prince, and she spent a year getting close to Ji Bei in her previous life, successfully gaining her trust, and then taking the advantage of serving him closely, she poisoned him for a month and killed his direct murderer. .
And the source of all this has to be traced back to the bet between the little prince and the fourth prince, whether the beauties trained by ten years of hard work can break Ji Bei's reputation of being unfeminine.
It seems to be a casual joke, but each other cares about each other. The fourth prince wanted to use the little prince's hand to support the heirs of the princeling's Huangshang Ji family, while the young prince wanted to show his non-interference attitude and let him do what he did, which eventually caused Ji Bei's death.
The winner is king and the loser is Kou, the way of heaven is natural, if Ji Bei is not the darling of heaven, and if Luo Shutu does not need to attack him, everything is just an insignificant episode in the struggle for imperial power.
In a word, in the npc that threatens the life of the capture target, he can't get rid of the fourth prince, and can't he get rid of a dancer? Luo Shutu said that not only should they be dismissed, but they should also be dismissed while gaining favor!
The summoned dancer wears a white toga, covered with green gauze, with a slender waist, half breasts looming, and tender white feet, dancing gracefully.
During the banquet, there is suddenly a little more fresh meaning. When you look up, you can see your eyebrows are like distant daisy, and the green hills are at ease;
After the dance, the woman only saluted calmly, with a calm expression on her beautiful face, as if she had never heard of the exclamation during the banquet.
After Luo Shutu had dealt with the flattery, he suddenly looked at Ji Bei who had been silent all this time, raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "Master Ji, how about this king's dancer?" Happy and angry.
"Returning to Your Highness, the dance of the talented person is not worldly, it can be described as amazing." Ji Bei replied neither humble nor overbearing.
"Hmm," Luo Shutu propped his chin with one hand, the red sleeves set off a small part of his exposed slender wrist, the contrast of colors was sharp and scorching. He seemed to be thinking for a while before he continued, "Then how about the king give her to you?" His eyes were shining brightly, which was very seductive.
Ji Bei showed a little surprise just right, and said: "The prince loves you so much, and the grassroots are terrified."
"Tsk, I'm tired of pretending, that's enough, I'll give you this woman, then..." What's the name of this dancer
"Qingwu." Yuan Bao said cleverly.
"Well, whatever your name is, I ordered you to take good care of Young Master Ji, don't do anything improper, and I will lose my face!"
"Here, I will keep this in mind." Qing Wu saluted with bowed head.
"Back off." Luo Shutu squinted his eyes and said lazily, covered his mouth with his palms, and yawned a little, not hiding his sleepiness at all.
The little prince's casualness is as famous as his beauty, even the Ministry of Rites has no choice but to indulge him after writing many times to reprimand him for ignoring etiquette and law, and none of the people present dared to touch him.
"Master, do you want to rest?"
As soon as Yuan Bao said this, Ji Wendao said, "If Your Highness doesn't mind the shabby mansion, you can stay overnight."
bingo! You are all assist little angels!
Luo Shutu raised his red sleeves, his white jade-like fingers slid down his black hair intentionally and unintentionally, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, showing a natural innocence, no matter what he looked like, he was naturally bewitched and worthy of disaster The name.
"Forget it, Yuan Bao, go clean up."
