However, it was expected that Jimo Qiu would lie.
If people knew that both husband and wife would die, who would Xun Ding have a mortal enemy with in the future? What would his enemies do to him, who had force at his side, and how could he touch a Gongxi Lai? Even though she has two brothers, they can't always guard her.
You can only be a thief for a thousand days, how can you prevent a thief for a thousand days?
Once her enemies find a chance, she will die.
Rather than leaving a clue for people to exploit in public, it is better to lie from the beginning and completely eliminate the hidden dangers. I just don’t know whether this contract binds both parties or one party.
After the ceremony, Gong Xilai did not enter the backyard.
Instead, he stood beside Xun Ding and toasted to all the guests.
Xun Ding asked worriedly: "Can you hold on?"
Alai's gorgeous clothes, especially the crown on his head that makes his neck hurt, are not light. Her situation is special, how can she survive? Gong Xilai said: "Nothing's wrong."
"Alai, if you can't hold on anymore, don't be brave. My father and I are here as guests." I was worried, but Gong Xilai refused to go to the backyard. , Xun Ding didn’t insist either. The wedding guests who came to attend were basically officials from the DPRK and China, and they were well-measured.
Well, it's measured, but not much.
They did not make things difficult for Gong Xi Lai, but they did not let him go either.
The toasts came one after another, one after another.
The court of King Kang had special regulations.
Officials can only drink on holidays, holidays, and events. It is not impossible to drink secretly, but they cannot be caught by the Yushitai. The people at Yushitai have noses sharper than dogs and ears sharper than cats. They are elusive and hard to detect! It is much more difficult to hide from the censors in the censorship station than to quit drinking. They would rather endure their alcohol addiction!
It was not easy to quit drinking, but no one wanted to be reserved.
The most important thing is——
All the drinks served at today’s banquet are spiritual wine.
One sip is full of money!
Have a few more drinks and the gifts will pay for themselves.
You can't take advantage of Xun Shangshu at any time. If you don't take advantage of today to kill him, will you have to wait for Xun Ding's child to have a full moon feast and a first-year banquet? With this delicate mood in mind, his colleagues heated up the atmosphere and toasted Xun Ding.
"General Xun, this cup of wine wishes you to have a son soon!"
"This cup of wine wishes you a long life together!"
It was a bit decent at first, but the painting style was very fast. changed.
Looking for a reason to propose a toast: "I would like to thank General Xun for passing by my door last time and saying hello to me!"
The colleagues all looked at the acquaintance who had a bit of a tongue.
Can this kind of reason be said for persuading people to drink?
What people are best at is to learn from others.
“Thank you for intimidating all parties and quelling the ant infestation in the government offices!”
“Thank you for intimidating all parties and quelling the ant infestation in the government offices!”
"Thank you for intimidating all parties and quelling the government infestation!"
Xun Ding's face turned green after hearing this.
Others were not the least bit frightened.
Lin Feng brought two jars of wine. When he saw that the wine in Xun Ding's glass had reached the bottom, he winked at his colleague and immediately filled it up for him.
Yang Ying and others kept teasing.
"Drink, drink up! How can you keep fish after such a short time?"
"Drink tonight, and you can't cheat with martial energy."
"That's right, Yong'an has a very good drinker, and he has been drinking well before. If you say you can't get drunk even if you drink a thousand cups, how can you get him drunk with just one cup or two? Just listen to me and go straight to the wine jar!"
Xun Ding's face turned from green to black.
When did you ever say that you can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk?
But he was the groom, so he couldn't easily refuse the requests of the guests. He gritted his teeth and said, "Just drink. We'll see who can get up tomorrow and go to the government office to order. Someone, bring the wine jar!"
If he could still withstand the booing from his colleagues, the next big move made Xun Ding want to kneel down, and Gong Xiqiu stacked the wine jars into a pyramid shape. He sat with a golden sword and smiled gently at Xun Ding: "You have become my brother-in-law now, and you are a real family. There is no need to mention the past grievances and conflicts. If you agree, you might as well get drunk and forget your kindness. Qiu, how about it?"
Xun Ding: "..."
He was greeting Gong Xiqiu very loudly in his heart!
Gu Chi can testify to this.
Gong Xilai couldn't help but say: "Second brother..."
Before he finished speaking, Xun Ding raised his hand to intercept him.
He took a deep breath, showed a heroic and tragic expression as if he was ready to die, and sat across from Gong Xiqiu: "I lose all my grudges when I'm drunk."
My second uncle is really a difficult person to deal with.
Xun Ding's mind changed, and he made up his mind to find a matchmaker from Quan Kangguo to help Gong Xiqiu in the future. He didn't believe that they couldn't make a match! At that time, I will place a wine jar a hundred times larger than this at his wedding banquet and marinate Gong Xiqiu directly!
Guests who didn't mind the matter came around one after another.
The important ministers pride themselves on being prudent and disdain this.
However, secretly I also stretched my ears to hear the battle situation and the final victory or defeat. If I had a little (not) conscience, I would also ask Xun Zhen (Huo) about his (upper) heart. (Pouring) Qing (oil): "Rare It's normal to be noisy when you have the opportunity. Don't worry, Shangshu, the general is a strong and courageous warrior, and he still has a certain amount of alcohol."
But he said in his heart: [Drink more, more. Drink, don’t stop! It's better to drink the iron cock surnamed Xun directly and bankrupt the whole family! 】
“Yes, yes, I don’t know if I will have such interest in the future. Before the war is decided, there will not be many opportunities like this.”
Bei Mo has reached out to stir up trouble in Kunzhou. With so many conspiracies and tricks, even a fool knows that the illusion of peace with Bei Mo will be broken soon. In the past, I always despised the days when I had to go to work before dawn, but now I still feel that I don't have enough...
Xun Zhen was choked by them and was suffocated.
Unfortunately, he also heard that there was a Yushitai who was eating and drinking from him, and he was still thinking about whether to investigate him. I thought briefly about how much a jar of spiritual wine costs, and estimated the amount of spiritual wine for this wedding banquet. Are the war rewards, salary, and silver enough to settle the accounts?
To put it more bluntly, they suspected Xun Zhen of corruption.
Xun Zhen: “…”
He glared hard at Gu Chi, who was acting like a normal person. As a royal censor, he doesn't care about these censors who are chasing rumors all day long? What to eat? How did Gu Chi come up with so much spiritual wine? How could Gu Chi not know it? hateful! It’s really annoying!
Gu Chi said leisurely: "If you are upright, you are not afraid of a slanted shadow."
It is really impossible for Xun Zhen to be corrupt.
The censor is not easy to handle either. There are also KPIs internally.
On the happy day, Xun Zhen had a lot of money to help his colleagues improve their performance. Anyway, he is not corrupt, and no problem will be found no matter how you investigate, but it only shows that he is tough, honest and upright. Gu Chi's attitude made people want to hit him.
Xun Zhen said angrily: "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked."
Gu Chi, the imperial censor who set an example, should bear the unshirkable responsibility for the current evil trend in the censorship station.
Gu Chi smiled shyly at him: "Thank you."
Xun Zhen: "..."
He took a deep breath and lowered his voice: "Gu Wangchao, you are the best Good prayers will not turn around, otherwise, you will pay back twice as much.”
If few colleagues noticed Gu Chi's personal affairs at first, after so many years, he always showed his flaws. Except for the Lord who is always missing a string, who in the whole court doesn't know what Gu Chi and Bai Su are like? However, I don’t know whether it was because both parties were unwilling to make it public or because they were concerned about their status in the DPRK. The two of them have been getting along anonymously over the years.
No one punctured the window paper first.
However, it can be understood somewhat if you think about their identities. A Tianquanwei general, the head of the female generals.
A censor doctor, the head of the censor station.
If this kind of combination gets married and lives together openly, not to mention what the Lord thinks, the courtiers will start to make trouble.
If the Lord is not afraid, his ministers will be afraid.
Who would dare to offend Bai Su or Gu Chi easily in the future?
Aren’t you afraid that Tianquanwei/Yushitai will wear small shoes?
Gu Chi slowly shook the wine cup.
He chuckled and said, "Then you'll have to wait."
Looking back, his eyes were frivolous: "I'm afraid Hanzhang can't afford to wait."
Being nameless and without distinction is more attractive to his colleagues than being famous and distinguished. They feel at ease. Or one of them steps down from a key position. Husband and wife are different from father and son. The latter is a natural blood relationship and cannot be severed, while the former is an acquired relationship and is controllable.
Shen Tang came over curiously and asked, "What can't you wait for?"
The king is a laborer and a qualified firefighter.
Mediating conflicts among courtiers is also part of her job.
Just now she saw lightning and thunder between the two of them, and the thunder from the sky stirred up the fire on the ground. Seeing that it was about to catch fire, she hurriedly found a way to put out the fire. However, Gu Chi and Xun Zhen didn't want to say much and only talked about private matters. As the head of the country, she cannot interfere in private matters.
When Gong Xiqiu's side finally decided the winner, one hand had set the time to the latter half of the night, and the guests dispersed one after another.
If you are drunk and live far away, arrange to stay overnight. For those who are still sane or live nearby, the Xun Mansion will arrange for people to be sent home.
Some people were picked up by their families.
For example, pray for kindness.
Qi Miao smelled the strong smell of alcohol on his body before he even got close, and asked worriedly: "Why did father drink so much wine today?"
Qi Shan's cheeks were filled with the smell of alcohol: " Colleagues encouraged me to drink.”
Qi Miao took out a hangover pill from the drawer of the carriage.
Although Literary Scholars can use Literary Qi to resolve hangovers, this process is not wonderful and will also bring a certain burden to the body.
Please take it with warm water.
He pressed his swollen temples to relieve the discomfort of being drunk. Listening to the sound of the carriage wheels turning in his ears, he suddenly remembered something: "Jun Qiao, Zheng Xiu is crazy."
Zheng Xiuchi is the supervisory censor Zheng Yu.
Qi Miao suddenly opened her eyes wide in shock and disbelief.
“Father——”
"In a few days, there will be news from the DPRK."
Zheng Yu died in the service of the public, so his treatment should not be poor. Not only should it not be too small, but it should be generous, treat his family well, and it is not impossible to pursue a posthumous title. It's just that these don't mean much to a dead person. Qi Shan knows this very well.
Qi Miao seemed to have not recovered from the news.
Her lips moved: "But, my daughter had met him before, so why did she know so quickly - who harmed him?"
Qishan exhaled a filthy breath, Holding the cushion with both hands, he adjusted his posture: "The hidden stakes in the Northern Desert are for the purpose of killing people and silencing them."
Qi Miao tried hard to digest the news.
The light in the carriage was not very bright, and the candlelight illuminated half of her face, while the other half was hidden in darkness: "But he is a good man."
Qishan: "Good people don't live long in this world."
Qi Miao tried her best to restrain her emotions, her voice was suppressed and forbearing, like a dam that was about to release floods, or maybe a camel that was about to be crushed. She trembled: "But that was before! Before - —"
"The 'before' you mentioned was only five years ago. Whether it was before or now, as long as the world is not one voice, there will be no difference if there are different voices. Conflicts, from verbal battles to life-and-death fights, people always repeat the same lesson. The ambition of the wolf in the North Desert is no longer a year or two, and rebellion is expected."
"The 'now' you are in is just because you are in Kangguo. If you go outside, you will be surrounded by hell."
"Jun Qiao, good people will not live long in this world."
"It is true that the disaster will last for thousands of years."
He can survive until now because he has removed his conscience.
On the way home, Qi Miao remained silent.
Just when she was helping Qishan out of the car, she suddenly asked: "Why did father suddenly talk to his daughter about this?"
Qishan laughed at himself: "I am old and like to nag."
If possible, he also hopes that Qi Miao can always be pure and kind, clean and white as snow, without any stains. However, he does not have this ability, and Kang Guo does not have this condition.
In this battle with Bei Mo, they can only win, not lose.
Once you win, it’s hard to stop.
Because the neighbors will be afraid, they may surrender in exchange for living space, or they may use joint means to take the initiative to strike first and forcibly cut off Kang Guo's progress.
No matter which one it is, the control does not lie with Kang Guo.
The same goes for the initiative in war.
To what extent?
When to stop?
Even if you pray for good, you can't predict it.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, Qi Shan saw a dozen pairs of green eyes shining on the roof. The owner of one pair jumped from the eaves to the rockery, and finally fell to the ground, gently rubbing Qi Shan's feet. . He bent down and picked up the elderly cat.
The depressed mood improved a lot.
"Su Shang is in a good mood today."
From Xiaocheng to Fengluo, Su Shang has also grown from a newborn milk cat to an old cat. Since it got older, it has become less and less active. It likes to sit on the roof and bask in the sun every day, motionless, and only goes to eat when it is hungry. Now it can still catch mice, but it misses three or five times out of ten times. In addition, its teeth are severely worn, so Qishan will not allow it to catch mice again.
Let the chef prepare soft meat for it every day.
In addition, there are its favorite snacks.
As I get older, the number of times I pray for kindness is getting less and less. It is rare to actively post like today.
“Oh, you can’t be so lazy, move more.”
Qi Shan scratched its chin.
Su Shang relaxed his limbs comfortably in his arms, and his throat made sounds of enjoyment. Some of the cats and grandchildren on the eaves gathered around him, some chased and fought, and some remained motionless. Qishan asked the chef how much he had eaten today, and his heart sank.
“Stay with me for a few more years.”
Qi Shan whispered softly while holding Su Shang.
Su Shang stretched his body, and the cat's claws bloomed with flowers.
Qishan had an extremely restless sleep that night. The scenes in his dream were messy and complex, with familiar and unfamiliar faces flashing before his eyes. When he woke up tired, there was a kitten on the pillow whose eyes had just opened and were still glowing with blue light.
"How did you get here?"
Su Shang meowed, holding the kitten by the back of its neck, climbed onto Qi Shan's bed, and placed it on the piled quilts.
As if to say——
Look, this is the child who looks most like me.
