Chapter 172 Who's the Flower
Chapter 172 Whose Flowers Fall
"Your apprentice and your secretary are fighting."
Qian Duoduo pretended to water the jasmine flowers in Yun Zhao's study, saying casually.
"You didn't stop me?"
Yun Zhao took off his glasses and placed them on the table, rubbed his nose and looked at his wife with interesting taste.
Qian Duoduo sneered and said, "Why should I stop me? Isn't it normal for two men to fight for a woman?"
Yun Zhao said helplessly: "I don't understand, why are you torturing Li Guocheng?"
Qian Duoduo said: "I just want to see if this guy is still a young man, or if he still has the passion of a young man. A young man in his early twenties acts like an old conspirator, which is wrong."
"So, you arranged for Xia Wanchun to regret under the bayberry tree, so that Li Guocheng would think you had plans to marry bayberry to Xia Wanchun?"
Qian Duoduo put down the sprinkler sneered and said, "Yangmei is in charge of my money treasury. I have to test the person she wants to marry. To be honest, I really want to marry Yangmei to Xia Wanchun.
I really don’t like that Li Guocheng. At such a young age, people can’t see his thoughts. This is wrong. How can I feel at ease if a person who can’t even guess his thoughts are married to Yangmei?”
Yun Zhao slit his mouth and smiled bitterly: "Li Guocheng will not steal money from you, nor will he plan your few pieces of silver, nor will he give up his bright future. The ideal is in the government, not in the money.
To be honest, since the development of the Lantian Dynasty has reached now, no one cares about silver as long as it is a promising person. This is a very low-level and low-level behavior for them. Once they are confirmed to like the characteristics of silver and money, they will lose more than just silver and money, but their official positions."
"I have too much money, but it's not a broken silver."
Qian Duoduo felt that her husband looked down on her a little.
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "As long as you do not evade taxes, you will earn broken silver, no matter how much you have, it will be broken silver. In addition, you have too much support to Yunxian. You have to stop. If you continue to support this, Yaozhou will sooner or later have chondropathy."
As soon as her husband talked about supporting Yunxian too much, Qian Duoduo immediately became a little unhappy and forced to reverse the topic: "Your secretary is about to be beaten to death, so you don't say a word?"
Yun Zhao said: "If you lose, you can hold the beauty back. I think Li Guocheng would rather be beaten by this. Speaking of which, Li Guocheng is already a rare top figure in the academy, but from the perspective of mind and strategy, it is still not as good as Xia Wanchun.
I won’t care about this, there are many benefits to fighting between them.”
After hearing what her husband said, Qian Duoduo, the initiator, could not sit still. She knew that neither Xia Wanchun nor Li Guocheng were indispensable figures in the second generation of the Lantian Dynasty. If something happened, she would be unable to take care of her.
So, I hurried back to her harem.
Babyberry was originally a delicious fruit, but it was a bit sour. Once when Qian Duoduo was eating bayberry, He Chang brought her a pretty girl and asked her to name the child.
Qian Duoduo happened to have a very sour bayberry, so sour that he bared his teeth. He opened his mouth and wanted to scold Yunchun. Yunhua picked up the delicious bayberry, but the words turned into the word "bayberry".
Then, the little girl's name is Yangmei.
As the queen, Qian Duoduo has the power to comfort the robbers, women and children of the Yun family. As long as he is a robber, he will usually entrust his children to Qian Duoduo to raise them after he dies in battle or dies of illness.
An outstanding child would either be sent to Yushan Academy to attend or to serve in the army at the Fenghuangshan Military Academy. Some outstanding and special children would be sent to Qian Duoduo, the old woman He Chang, to Qian Duoduo to raise him personally.
The child Yangmei is the most outstanding among these children. According to the old pious woman He Chang, when the child is raised well, he can earn at least 50,000 taels of silver for the money.
Qian Duoduo was the leader of Yangzhou's thin horses, and his value was only 20,000 taels. However, Qian Duoduo's era was in a precious era. Unlike now, the Ming Dynasty was crazily mining the Ishimi Yinshan in Japan. The silver was no longer as valuable as that time.
In view of this, the old pious woman He Chang specially sent this child to Qian Duoduo and accepted Qian Duoduo's favor.
According to her idea, after Qian Duo has been old and has become weak, she just gave the child to the emperor and continued to be favored.
But I didn't expect that over the years, Qian Duoduo has indeed grown old, fat, his belly is covered with stretch marks, and his temper is worse. Even so, He Chang's situation has not seen the scene of "decline in color and love in love with Qian Duoduo", but instead found that the emperor seemed to be pampering this lucky woman more.
This is incredible for an old woman who specializes in raising "Yangzhou Skinny Horse" to support her family, and it is also a world of difference from the men she knows.
However, she was in the palace, and the whole harem was invisible to hide the turmoil, and any woman secretly climbed into the emperor's bed could not hide the fact that she thought her value lies in this.
She really knew that the emperor's so-called 6,000 harem was really only two, one was more than three thousand, and the real one could not be real anymore.
The rumors about the emperor's lustfulness that was spreading outside are simply nonsense!
Apart from the two queens, the two women who are closest to the emperor are Yun Chun and Yun Hua, and these two women... He Chang has never recognized their identities as women. The two of them serve the emperor to take a bath and change clothes, which makes her feel more at ease than a man to take a bath and change clothes.
This left He Chang's arrangement without any use.
Because of her good financial management skills, Yangmei was entrusted by Qian Duoduo to manage her private treasury.
Li Guocheng is the highest-ranking secretary around the emperor, and Yang Mei is the most important female official around the queen. They have many opportunities to meet. After a long time, Li Guocheng, who has a very high-level vision, secretly fell in love with Yang Mei.
Li Guocheng thought that bayberry was the emperor's forbidden body, so he buried all his thoughts in his heart. He sighed that he had no fate. He wasted his luck until he was twenty-three years old and still refused to get married.
However, after Xia Wanchun, a bastard, arrived in Guangzhou, Li Guocheng was frightened to find that he seemed to have made the emperor wrong. His Majesty the Emperor had no idea about Yangmei, and Empress Qian was deliberately or unintentionally matching the marriage between Xia Wanchun and Yangmei.
Not only did Xia Wanchun regret it under the bayberry tree, but she also forced Xia Wanchun to get married before the bayberry matures... What does it mean before the bayberry matures? According to the Ming Dynasty's laws, any woman can get married at the age of 18!!!
In another half a month, the bayberry will be eighteen!!
If Yang Mei became the emperor's woman, Li Guocheng would not have any thoughts, but, what is the bastard Xia Wanchun - why?
Li Guocheng roared, closed his arms and hugged Xia Wanchun's waist, pushed him to the wall, and ignored the raindrop-like fist on his back, and just wanted to kill this dog god in one breath.
"Are you fucking crazy?"
Xia Wanchun originally wanted to use elbow strike to get rid of Li Guocheng, but after finding that this guy was crazy, he didn't dare to take any more serious measures. If he hit him again, he would really beat him to death.
Seeing the wall, Xia Wanchun poked one leg backward, pressed against the wall, spread Li Guocheng's arms, and took advantage of the forward force of Li Guocheng's rushing forward, and took a few steps on the wall, then flipped hard, grabbed Li Guocheng's shoulder with both hands, and threw him to the ground.
This fall was very heavy.
Li Guocheng looked up at the sky, and the stars were rising in front of him, and his whole body was as if he was dispersed. He tried hard to turn over, but failed. Seeing Xia Wanchun looking down at him, he vomited a mouthful of blood and said, "You are not worthy of marrying Yangmei!"
Xia Wanchun looked back at the lush bayberry tree and said angrily: "I don't have the leisure of a plum wife and crane son!"
Li Guocheng's pupils suddenly contracted, and his scattered eyes suddenly condensed, and he said to Xia Wanchun: "Don't you know?"
Xia Wanchun said angrily: "Do I know?"
Li Guocheng stretched out a hand and said, "It's okay, help me up."
Xia Wanchun pulled Li Guocheng up and moved his cervical vertebrae and said, "I'm not convinced? Then come again!"
Li Guocheng came to the place where the documents fell step by step, collected them one by one, carefully held them in his arms, and then held them with one hand and moved away from the atrium step by step.
"Damn it, you can tell me clearly, what's going on?"
Xia Wanchun's roar came from behind.
Li Guocheng stubbornly popped up a middle finger and shook it towards Xia Wanchun, then walked out of the door.
"Bastard--"
Xia Wanchun, who beat Li Guocheng, suddenly felt that he seemed to be the loser. He didn't understand where this feeling came from, but at this moment he felt that he seemed to have lost something very important.
If you don’t understand something, you have to ask, so he appeared in front of the master immediately.
Yun Zhao looked at Xia Wanchun's swollen cheeks, then at his terrible clothes that had been torn, and sighed and said, "Are you finished?"
Xia Wanchun said angrily: "Li Guocheng is crazy, he scolds me when he sees me, and even beats me."
Seeing that there was blood in Xia Wanchun's mouth, Yun Zhao pushed the tea bowl over and said, "Wash your mouth and your teeth are stained with blood. Have you won?"
Xia Wanchun turned his eyes and rinsed his mouth, nodded repeatedly and said, "How could he be my opponent?"
Yun Zhao said leisurely: "A peerless beauty just watched the fight between you, and then, she chose the loser!"
"A peerless beauty? Why didn't my disciple see it? Who is qualified to be a peerless beauty except for two master's wives in this palace?"
"I don't want you to see it because I'm afraid you will become lustful. However, it's a bit late to just think of flattering your two master's wives."
"Hi! How old is it... Master, the disciple has suffered such a big loss. Look, is it feasible to have a soldier out of the river?"
Chapter completed!
