Chapter 2724 is under control
Seeing that several princesses had arrived in front of the pavilion, Li Tai said no more, and just warned: "In short, you have to be careful. Maybe I don't dare to harm your life, but I can't embarrass you secretly. Accurate.”
Fang Jun nodded.
The princesses held oil-paper umbrellas on their heads and stepped on the moss-stained stone steps with bare feet and wooden clogs. They came to the pavilion. The maids had already brought brocade mats and placed them on the mat. They also took out food boxes and took out seven or eight Such exquisite pastries, and a pot of hot tea, they all stood outside the pavilion holding umbrellas.
Li Tai looked at his sisters with a doting smile on his face: "It's gentle breeze and rain, boating on the lake, do you think this Jiangnan scenery is okay?"
Before the princesses could answer, Du He couldn't help but said: "The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is certainly beautiful, and it can't be compared with Guanzhong, but it has been raining for many days, and the body seems to be wet and hairy, and it feels uncomfortable. I really don't know the people in the south of the Yangtze River." How did our ancestors endure this? ”
The south of the Yangtze River is humid, especially in the two seasons of plum rain and late autumn. The rain is endless and the quilts in the house can be filled with water. It is indeed unbearable for northerners who are accustomed to dryness.
Changle, Gao Yang, and Jinyang naturally would not refute Du He, but Princess Chengyang was not used to him and said calmly: "The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Yangtze are different, and naturally each has its own merits. Now I feel that the south of the Yangtze River is humid, but in a few days it will be cold in Guanzhong The wind is strong, but the south of the Yangtze River is still green and lush. Naturally, the south of the Yangtze River is better.”
Fang Jun on the side smiled and said nothing.
Southerners think that northerners are not afraid of the cold, while northerners think that winter in the south is not cold at all... This is probably the biggest misunderstanding in the world.
Being robbed, Du He didn't dare to refute, so he could only smile and drink tea.
My self-esteem is inevitably hit, and I feel more and more that I should make some earth-shattering feats, otherwise it will be embarrassing in front of outsiders. Even my own woman looks down on myself, which is really uncomfortable...
Princess Jinyang ignored this, put a piece of pastry on the plate in front of her, then pushed it in front of Fang Jun, and said with a sweet smile: "Brother-in-law, try this jujube paste sesame cake, it is very delicious."
Fang Jun looked at the sesame-wrapped pastry on the plate. It seemed to be not much different from that of later generations. He picked it up and took a bite. It was hard and crispy, and it was very sweet with jujube paste inside. After two bites, Princess Jinyang had already poured it out. A cup of tea is handed to hand...
"Brother-in-law, do you want to try this?"
Fang Jun swallowed a sip of tea, and there was another sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the plate...
The rest of the people were watching the pretty and lovely Princess Jinyang sitting next to Fang Jun, pouring tea and water. She didn't have the slightest bit of arrogance and arrogance at all. Instead, she looked more like a meticulous little maid, which Changle and Chengyang didn't have. Although Princess Gaoyang didn't care, she was a bit dissatisfied, and the one who felt the deepest impression was naturally Du He.
They are both brothers-in-law and consorts, so why is there such a big gap?
Everyone knows that Princess Jinyang is most favored by His Majesty Li Er and all the princes and princesses, so everyone wants to get closer to Princess Jinyang. However, although this little princess is well-educated, dignified and virtuous in front of everyone, But that cold and distant state of mind can be felt by everyone.
However, this little princess has been extremely close to Fang Jun since she was a child. Among the many sons-in-law of His Majesty Li Er, only Fang Jun can make Princess Jinyang call her "brother-in-law". The rest either use their official positions to match, or simply call her "so-and-so's son-in-law". ", which is extremely frustrating...
Du He drank tea sullenly, feeling that as long as he was by Fang Jun's side, he would be completely enveloped in his light. He was usually considered a member of a well-known family, but now his self-confidence was completely shattered...
Princess Gaoyang tugged on Princess Jinyang's sleeves, pulled her petite body to her side, frowned and reprimanded in a low voice: "What are you doing? After all, you are a royal princess, but you are serving tea like a little maid. Water, are you embarrassed?”
Princess Jinyang rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "It would be a bit inappropriate if she was a sister-in-law, but isn't it right for a sister-in-law to pour tea and water for her brother-in-law?"
In one sentence, the two princesses Changle and Chengyang were made red faced.
Princess Chengyang was dissatisfied and scolded: "You are talking nonsense at a young age. If you were in the palace, you would have to let the teacher learn to talk!"
Princess Changle glanced at Princess Chengyang. After all, she had been having constant scandals with Fang Jun. It was understandable that she felt a little shy now, but she didn't understand why she had such a big reaction?
Could it be...
Already in her mind, she glanced at Fang Jun secretly, and immediately suppressed the thought that arose in her heart.
Li Tai waved his hand to stop Princess Chengyang and said with a smile: "Sizi is young after all, and he has been close to Erlang since he was a child, so no one will gossip about it. Besides, what's wrong with having some friendship between sisters and brothers? Our father has repeatedly taught us to love each other as brothers and sisters. We should also remember our father’s teachings and be less estranged and closer to each other.”
Princess Chengyang complied, but her head lowered and her face turned red as red as possible.
Isn't it very close? After all, everything that was confused was touched...
Li Tai only thought that she was thin-skinned and hurriedly said: "Chengyang, don't get me wrong. I am not scolding you as a brother. I just hope that brothers and sisters can love each other. Even if the young slaves want to compete for the reserve now, privately, The friendship between brothers and sisters cannot be destroyed.”
Princess Chengyang lowered her head, even the tips of her ears were red, and hummed like a mosquito: "Sister, I understand..."
Du He looked at his wife's shy appearance and felt quite strange in his heart. Is this still the wife who is usually cold and distant, and never talks about anything?
It looks better and better, but I always feel like something is not quite right...
Li Tai then said: "Things didn't go well this time when we went south, so we probably have to stay for a while. My sisters might as well go around and have fun, which is also a rare moment of relaxation. After all, opportunities like this don't come around very often. I'll think about it next time." I don’t know how long it will take to come to Jiangnan. If there is something I’m not used to, feel free to tell me and tell the Suzhou governor to make more preparations. That’s one of my own, no need to be polite.”
Several princesses nodded in agreement.

Xiao Qi sailed upstream all the way to Jinling. After getting off the boat, he hurried home without stopping and went straight to his father Xiao Jing's study.
There is another person in the study, the eldest son of his uncle Xiao Xun, his own cousin Xiao Ju, and the father of Xiao Siye who died in the "death" in northern Xinjiang...
Xiao Jing did not shy away from Xiao Ju's presence and asked bluntly: "How is the situation in Suzhou?"
Xiao Qi quickly reported the incident in Suzhou in detail.
After hearing this, Xiao Jing frowned tightly with her snow-white eyebrows and said nothing.
Xiao Ju said angrily: "This is simply unreasonable! People in the countryside call Fang Jun 'Nan Batian'. Does he really think that he can dominate the sky in Jiangnan? Our two families are also in-laws after all. What he is doing is... It is equivalent to putting my Xiao family on the opposite side of all the Jiangnan noble families, and the whole world is the enemy! Do you really dare to take back my family's salt farm, and even cut off our sea trade and prevent the fleet from going to sea? If he is really such a bastard, I will give up my flesh and blood and go to the Tai Chi Palace to kowtow to the emperor. I don’t believe that His Majesty the Emperor can allow my children to die violently in Northern Xinjiang, and the family will be humiliated and bullied!”
Ever since Xiao Siye considered himself "dead" and lost his life for the Tang army to overthrow Xue Yantuo, Xiao Ju has considered himself a hero since then. He feels that having such a son is really the glory of the family, and he has strengthened his waist...

Xiao Jing didn't even raise her eyelids, she just waved her hands and said in deep thought: "Don't be reckless. This kid Fang Jun is ruthless and refuses to recognize his relatives. This time it was my family who set him off first. In the end, it is unethical. No wonder he Treat it like this.”
Xiao Qi said: "I rushed to Suzhou. On the way, I heard that many Jiangnan nobles had succumbed to Fang Jun's lust. Those who had previously said that they wanted to punish Fang Jun had now brought accounting documents to Fang Jun, begging for help. Hurry up and transfer those goods farming properties . That Wang Jing's tongue was like a lotus flower, but he was not a single enemy in front of Fang Jun. He was defeated in one encounter. Now everyone in the south of the Yangtze River is in panic, fearing that Fang Jun will settle accounts and retaliate. Can’t wait to come to show my goodwill.”
It has to be said that Wang Jing is indeed somewhat eloquent and has the air of a celebrity, so his previous door-to-door lobbying has achieved very good results. However, what is quite disappointing is that as soon as the two of them met after Fang Jun arrived in Jiangnan, Wang Jing was beaten until his mouth and nose spurted blood, and he was completely disgraced. In the subsequent confrontation, he was completely defeated. The families in the south of the Yangtze River were greatly disappointed and regretted what they had done.
Xiao Qi saw with his own eyes that Fang Jun was extremely domineering and arrogant even in front of the King of Wei. The dignified prince could not even interrupt. He was already afraid in his heart, fearing that his father was still stubborn and had no luck. (End of chapter)
