Text Chapter 1438 Xiahou Tuo’s Beating
Ying Jiuguang was overjoyed again and took it with both hands, "Old minister, thank Tianen on behalf of Ruyi."
"Haha" Lord Qing waved his hand and left with a smile.
Shangguan Qing cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Old slave, I would like to go ahead and congratulate the King of Heaven."
Ying Jiuguang hurriedly returned the greeting: "You are so polite, Chief. That girl has always made people worry. If there is any ignorance in the palace from now on, I hope the Chief will bear with her."
Shangguan Qing: "The King of Heaven is joking... I hope that the King of Heaven will keep in touch with the old slave about Concubine Tian's entry into the palace, but don't leave the old slave confused about how to make preparations." Lord Qing has decided on some things. Just the title is enough, he will handle the specific matters.
To put it harshly, Qingzhu doesn’t have to worry about the process at all. During the process, he will handle official business and practice when he needs to. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t even show his face. He just needs to enter the bridal chamber. Qingzhu doesn’t even have to worry about it. It's okay to enter the bridal chamber, and indeed the bridal chambers of many concubines in the harem have never been entered. To put it bluntly, it’s just a concubine, so there is no need to mobilize troops. If every time a concubine is admitted to the harem, there must be noisy and noisy etiquette, how can there be so many concubines in the harem? I'm afraid the ministers will be overwhelmed by the gifts they give.
Except for the grand marriage of Xia Hou Chengyu, the Queen of Heaven, the other concubines in the harem were just carried into the palace from outside the palace. After crossing that door, they were the women of the Emperor of Heaven. Zhan Ruyi's entry into the palace was no exception. The harem would be ready for her. In the courtyard, just come in and check in.
Ying Jiuguang knew that this matter was under the control of the other party. Before Zhan Ruyi entered the palace, Shangguan Qing had to send someone to check Zhan Ruyi's body. It was impossible for Qing Master to pick up broken shoes or become a cuckold, so he nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, Chief Manager, the progress is good." How to inform the chief manager at any time?"
"Then it's up to King Lao Tian." Shangguan Qing said politely, turned around and quickly followed Master Qing.
Ying Jiuguang stood in the pavilion and took a deep breath. He realized that today was really an unexpected surprise and quickly walked out of the pavilion to follow. As for the betrothal of Zhan Ruyi to Miao Yi, which he had been thinking about before, he had forgotten it. The value of giving Qingzhu as his concubine was beyond what a virtuous little calf could give. It was not difficult to choose between interests.
We spent half a day in the Royal Garden. The Emperor of Heaven returned to the Heavenly Palace, and the ministers also left one after another.
After learning that the Emperor of Heaven had returned, a group of women who were pretending to be in the farmland suddenly lost interest in dealing with it. Xiahou Chengyu, who walked from the field to the ridge of the field, put down his cuffs. Just as he was about to leave, his personal maid, E Mei, came again to report: "Your Majesty, Xiahou Tianweng wants to see you."
"Grandpa?" He immediately waved his hand and said, "Hurry, please come."
E Mei quickly dodged and flew away. With the Queen's will, there was no problem for Xiahou Tuo to come over.
Flying and landing in front of Xiahou Chengyu, Xiahou Tuo bowed his hands and bowed politely, "Old minister, see the Queen of Heaven."
Xiahou Chengyu was helpless. She had said many times that her grandfather would not be so polite in front of her, saying that she couldn't bear it, but Xiahou Tuo was very insistent on this point. He insists that etiquette cannot be abolished, and requires everyone in the Xiahou family to do the same.
You can't refuse, you can only accept it. But then again, she did find a sense of superiority every time at this time. She used to not stand out in the Xiahou family, but now everyone in the Xiahou family has to be polite and polite when they see her, and they don't dare at all. neglect. At this time, some of the grievances she suffered in the palace would disappear, and she would feel that everything was worth it.
"There's no need to be polite, Tian Weng." Xiahou Chengyu quickly reached out to help him.
After finishing the ceremony, Xiahou Tuo straightened up and looked around. Hehe laughed and said: "Sure enough, what goes up and what follows follows, everyone is working hard."
When Xiahou Chengyu saw that he was looking around and talking to him, he knew that he had something to say to him, so he immediately smiled and said: "I haven't seen Tianweng for a while. If you don't mind, let's go to the woods with Ai's family to chat about home affairs."
"Since it is the empress's decree, I should obey it," Xiahou Tuo agreed.
"Emei, please tidy up here." Xiahou Chengyu said a word, turned around and led Xiahou Tuo away.
Emei knew what she meant. There was something private that she wanted to avoid telling others. Take orders to pick up the farm tools left in the field.
After entering the grove, Xiahou Tuo cast a spell to scan the surrounding area. Xiahou Chengyu saw that he was cautious and couldn't help asking: "Grandpa, what's the matter?"
Xiahou Tuo stared at her for a while and sighed, "Chengyu, today you ordered the whipping of cattle, which is a moral thing, and you went a little too far. His Majesty just promoted him, but you tortured him. Isn't it wrong?" Are you suspected of going against His Majesty? Girl, going against His Majesty is not a wise move."
When I mentioned this, when I thought about Niu Youde abandoning her as a queen and running away without even reporting the incident, and how could he take her as a queen seriously, I couldn't help snorting coldly, "I don't believe it." If His Majesty can fall out with me over a little calf Youde, it’s not that I haven’t dealt with someone with a higher rank, but it’s because of Your Majesty’s face, otherwise he wouldn’t be alive today.”
Xiahou Tuo shook his head and said: "Okay, I won't say any other reasons. You should remember, I once said that our family owes him a favor. Now that the favor has not been repaid, you beat him like that. Is that right? Isn’t it too much?”
Xia Hou Chengyu chuckled, "What a big deal, isn't it just that I helped Long Cheng, and now Long Cheng has passed away... Okay, I won't talk about this, I will only state the reality. Is it possible that the face of a diva like me can't be compared to that of a queen?" How dare you contradict me in public and not take me seriously at all? How can I be embarrassed if I don't even have this kind of prestige?"
Seeing that she didn't take his words seriously, Xiahou Tuo's old eyes suddenly narrowed, and he took a step forward with his crutches. The eyes that leaked out of his eyes pierced out like a sharp blade, and the momentum concealed by his old appearance burst out, shocking Xiahou Chengyu to subconsciously take a step back.
"Girl, don't let the vanity of women who don't know the height of the sky and the earth blind your mind. At least you can't lose your sobriety. It's not up to you to sit in the harem. If the Xiahou family doesn't want you to sit in the harem, can you sit firmly in the position of the master of the harem? So don't do anything that harms the interests of the Xiahou family. If the Xiahou family collapses, what will happen to you? I don't need to say more about this old minister." Xiahou Tuo spoke slowly, almost word by word, warning with a terrifying look.
In fact, it was a warning. He found that he couldn't do it without a warning. The Xiahou family didn't help her to become the queen to help someone to go against the Xiahou family. If she couldn't control it, what would happen?
Xiahou Chengyu was shocked. She certainly knew how powerful her grandfather was. Even the overlords of the world for generations were destroyed by Grandpa. In Grandpa's eyes, she, the queen of heaven, was nothing at all. It only took a word to destroy her.
It was really a blow that woke her up from her anger. She was frightened. She quickly took the initiative to support Grandpa's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandpa, where did you say that? Forget it, since you are unhappy, I will let Niu Youde go."
"No" Xiahou Tuo shook his head and said: "I'm not asking you to let him go. If you need to trouble him, continue to trouble him. Don't make any changes."
Xiahou Chengyu was stunned and a little confused. He warned me just now, and now he asked me to do the same. What does this mean? She couldn't help but said suspiciously: "Grandpa, your granddaughter doesn't understand what you mean."
Xiahou Tuo: "You are the master of the harem, you should not lose your temper. You don't need to compromise with a small general, but you must also consider His Majesty's face. Don't go against His Majesty, don't go too far. You can play a little with that kid, but don't play it seriously. Don't let him get into trouble here. Not only that, once that kid encounters danger here, you have to find a way to save him and try to keep him as much as possible without involving yourself."
Xiahou Chengyu became more and more confused, and said blankly: "My granddaughter is stupid and still didn't understand what grandpa meant."
Xiahou Tuo tilted his head and looked at her. He solemnly told her, "Girl, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. You don't need to ask any more questions. You just need to remember. It's enough to keep that kid for our Xiahou family."
This time, Xiahou Chengyu understood. Although she didn't know what grandpa was going to do, the fact that grandpa came to tell her personally meant that Niu Youde was of great use to the Xiahou family. This made her dare not despise him. She nodded and said, "Grandpa. Don't worry, your granddaughter knows what to do."
"Hehe" Xiahou Tuo smiled with satisfaction, pulled his hand out of her arm, and bowed again, saying, "My queen is probably going back to the palace. I won't bother you anymore. I'll take my leave."
Xiahou Chengyu sent him out of the woods, and after watching him leave, he fell into deep thought.
All the ancestors of the gang left, and Miao Yi was relieved. He finally didn't have to drag his seriously injured body to continue to suffer. He lay down when he returned to the general town mansion and quickly recovered. Feihong wiped her tears and took care of him carefully...
"Miss and husband, you are back"
A familiar and unfamiliar greeting sounded on the side. Zhan Ping and Ying Luohuan, who had just walked into the mansion of King Ying Tian, couldn't help but look back. When they saw the person who greeted them, they both stopped and were stunned.
It was no one else, but the former Tianyuan Marquis. Now, of course, the word "Marquis" had to be removed. Not only did he lose the word "Marquis", but he also got rid of the gorgeous clothes he used to wear. He wore six-section purple armor and greeted awkwardly and respectfully.
The couple looked at each other, sighing with emotion. They had naturally heard about Tianyuan's experience. He was involved in the case of the ugly star and was involved in treason. He was demoted from a court official in the immortal class to guarding the gate of the Heavenly King's Palace. It was really sympathetic.
The two walked over, Zhan Ping raised his hand and patted Tianyuan on the shoulder, sighing: "Brother Tian, saving your life is better than anything else. With the care of the Heavenly King, sooner or later there will be a day when Brother Tian will make a comeback."
Tianyuan seemed to smile calmly, stretched out his hand and said: "The Heavenly King asked me to wait for you two here, and let me know that you can go directly to Xiaozhuo Garden to find him when you come."
Zhan Ping bowed his hands to thank him, Ying Luohuan also nodded and greeted, and the couple turned around and left immediately.
Watching him go away, Tian Yuan sighed softly. Some things are just fate.
He and Zhan Ping were both close followers of King Ying Tian. King Ying Tian valued him very much at first and intended for him to marry Ying Luohuan. However, he really couldn't flatter the temper of that woman, and didn't want to marry a ancestor. In addition, he fell in love with the young and beautiful Bi Yue at first sight. He hadn't been in the officialdom alone at that time, and he was still relatively simple. He just wanted to grow old with Bi Yue. King Ying Tian didn't force him, and still arranged a future for him. However, many things became ruthless under the erosion of time. People's hearts are as changeable as the world, and it's unbearable to look back.
Now, he has been beaten back to the starting point. Zhan Ping's position is stable and his future is promising. He can be sure that if he had married Ying Luohuan, he would not have ended up like this.
Shaking his head, Tian Yuan turned around and sighed again...To be continued.
