MTL - Court Marriage-Chapter 85 Catch Zhou Li
Five days later, Gong Zhuo's husband and his wife were summoned by the prince under the arrangement of Gong Zhuoxiang. The two had extraordinary looks and talents, which made the prince feel happy when they saw it. Although the two of them resigned and left within half an hour of their conversation, they both knew that His Royal Highness the Prince admired Qiao Yingze very much, as can be seen from the auspicious things that were given to the title of the Golden List. As for Gong Zhuoliang, if it wasn't for the fact that he was a 'wife', the Crown Prince would have directly sent him to the Ministry of Works to take errands...
September 18th was the first birthday of Qiao Yingxuan's eldest son and eldest daughter. Originally, Qiao Yingxuan and his wife only invited relatives and friends they knew each other well, but when the day came, there were many extra guests and people who walked away. Fortunately, their couple Both of them are used to seeing big scenes, and there is nothing wrong with them when dealing with communication. It can even be said that such a lively scene is more suitable for them to play, so that those guests who originally came to be close to each other for various reasons are also concerned about their family. Gao glanced.
"Zhuzhuo, it's almost time for the ceremony, let's all go too?"
Since the morning, I heard that there are many guests coming from Dongfu. Qiao Yingze and Gong Zhuoliang did not go there to join in the fun. Later, I heard people report that it was him and Gong Zhuoliang who came to inquire more, obviously because of the happy event of Dongfu. They came to climb their friendship in the West Mansion, so it would be even more difficult for the two of them to pass by too early, so they stayed at home under the pretext of the old man. Anyway, there was a courtyard wall between the two houses, and they could go there at any time.
"All right."
Gong Zhuoliang was sitting on the couch and playing with his sons. Hearing that, he asked Han Lu to come over and take care of the two little guys. He also got up and tidied up his clothes, and then put on a professional smile on his face.
The two brought their sons into the East Mansion from the main entrance, and everyone's eyes were focused on them. Most of the self-confident ones just paid attention first, and waited for the mansion master to introduce themselves. Now, some people said they admired Qiao Yingze's knowledge, some said they liked Gong Zhuoliang's novels. For a while, it seemed that the two of them were very lively around them. Until now, the main owner, Qiao Yingxuan, came to relieve the two of them and introduced them to the outside world. The guest then escorted the two into the small hall, and the two who had already said that they were dry-mouthed relaxed.
"Brother, you sit down with Brother Xiang and the others first, I'll go get ready, it's about time, and then I'll pick you up."
Today is the one-year-old birthday of his children. Qiao Yingxuan is in a very good mood. He smiled brightly and greeted the people in the room, and he was busy preparing for other things.
"Understood, go get busy."
Qiao Yingze smiled and patted Qiao Yingxuan's shoulder, watching him go out and ordering his servants to do things in an orderly manner, he couldn't help nodding his head in relief, but on the other hand, he was also a little distressed. It's really not good at all. If people make a lot of noise, they will feel that they can't stay... Fortunately, I have Zhuo Zhuo.
"What's wrong?"
Aware of Qiao Yingze's affectionate gaze, Gong Zhuoliang, who had just put away his polite smile, turned his face to the side, and took his arm with a thoughtful smile.
"fine."
Qiao Yingze shook his head slightly, still reluctant to look away from Gong Zhuoliang's face, and he couldn't help showing a hearty smile on his face.
"Hey, we're still here, it's wrong to be around."
There was a round table in the small hall. Lu Zijian, who had already come over, was sitting sideways in the direction of the two of them, teasing them with a sour chin, which was really enviable and jealous.
There were only Gong Zhuoxiang and his son, Lu Zijian, Zhang Lin and Qiao Yingzi in the small hall. Among them, Gong Zhuoxiang and Lu Zijian had been sitting all the time. Zhang Lin stood up and greeted them when they came in. The eldest son of Qiao Yingzi and Gong Zhuoxiang was old because of his age. Urinary did not sit with him, but stood behind Gong Zhuoxiang. Gong Zhuoliang and Qiao Yingze laughed at Lu Zijian's ridicule, greeted Zhang Lin and sat down together, and then let the maid's precious sons hold them to Qiao Yingzi and the others. Let them play together in the hall.
"Now the two of you are really considered upstarts in Beijing. How do you feel?"
When Lu Zijian came here today, when he saw the battle outside, he guessed where those people were singing. Qiao Yingze, one of them was appreciated by the crown prince as soon as they entered Beijing, and praised him as a virtuous country, while the other was famous. There are countless fans of the book, and now he has the noble status of the first son of the Gong family, and it is not surprising that he has attracted the attention of everyone. However, some of these people outside are too snobby, which adds to the host's family and makes people feel tired and crooked. .
"What kind of upstart, it's just some scenes, how can it be taken seriously?"
Seeing Lu Zijian's disdain, Gong Zhuoliang also smiled and shook his head, ignoring the compliments of those people at all.
These people who will be here today are just "little shrimps" outside of their serious relatives. I think that he and Qiao Yingze are both powerless, no official and no rank now, and they only have a clear reputation, no matter where they are really worthy of others. Flattered? It's superficial to really be complacent for this little excitement.
"Yes, but it's good for our family to understand these words. In the future, your entertainment will increase, and you can't show it on your face. If you offend others for nothing, it's your own trouble."
Gong Zhuoxiang was very satisfied with Qiao Yingze and his husband's unrestrained attitude, but he was used to being a big parent and he had to warn him again. Qiao Yingze and Gong Zhuoliang smiled, but Lu Zijian didn't do much to save face. A grimace made several people laugh again.
"By the way, your brother-in-law also has good news to say today."
Seeing that Zhang Lin was shy and hesitant to speak, Lu Zijian brought the topic back to him.
"Thank you to my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. This morning, His Royal Highness the Prince personally ordered his brother-in-law's errand, and he was in charge of repairing the hot spring village for the royal family. Because the space was three times larger than the original design, it had to be redone. Planning, this matter... I have to trouble my sister-in-law."
Zhang Lin said and smiled a little embarrassedly. The two small dimples on the baby's face made him look more childish.
Zhang Lin's errand this time is definitely a fat one, and it was personally ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be in charge of him. Then, after Zhuangzi's accomplishment, his superiors won't be able to share much, and the promotion to the fifth rank is basically a certainty. Yes... But even though he only acted according to His Royal Highness's orders, Zhang Lin felt quite ashamed when he thought that this Huangzhuang would trouble his eldest brother's family a lot, but the benefits of being promoted and making a fortune were all granted to him.
"The family is polite, but it was originally the private hot spring village of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. How come it has become a royal residence again?"
Gong Zhuoliang smiled indifferently when he heard the words. He didn't think there was any trouble. The actual architectural drawing was not the same as the one that Qiao Yingze took pains to draw before. Thinking of this, Gong Zhuoliang feels that this matter can be handed over to Ping Xi. In modern terms, Zhang Lin is the engineering director who was a civil servant, and Ping Xi is the chief architect. But it's very big, and he would definitely be happy to come.
"This is a piece of filial piety from His Royal Highness. Seeing that His Majesty's Holy Body violated the peace, he dedicated Zhuang Tujin to His Majesty. Next year will be His Majesty's Jiazi's full birthday. After the completion of the work, His Majesty can be asked to move him for recuperation. Your Majesty Longyan is very happy. The estate will be expanded."
The person who spoke out was Gong Zhuoxiang. The Crown Prince also asked his opinion about the presentation. His Majesty’s body and spirit have been getting worse and worse over the past year. Government affairs are basically handled by His Royal Highness, while the Second Prince and The third prince's movements are also getting more and more... Shaking his head gently, Gong Zhuoxiang took his thoughts back from those things. Today is a festive day, so there is no reason to disappoint those.
"It turns out that since my brother-in-law is in charge of this matter, when the place is settled, I will go with you to see the specific terrain and environment, and we will make plans."
Gong Zhuoliang just asked casually, the bigger the Zhuangzi builds, the better it will be for them. As for whether there will be project quality problems... Unless those officials from the Ministry of Industry want to drag the whole family to death, no one has the guts. Dare to engage in scumbag projects on royal buildings, although today's saints are still generous, they can't stand the slightest provocation in terms of royal majesty.
Zhang Lin hurriedly responded when he heard the words. At this time, Qiao Yingxuan came to invite them over, and they stopped talking and went to the main hall to watch the ceremony together.
When it was time to catch Zhou's main event, Qiao Minren and Qiao Yiyue, who were wearing the same big red shirts, were carried by their nurses and walked into the center of the hall where the new carpet had just been laid. According to their rules, it was their relatives and friends to catch Zhou's things. Come and put it, you can use what others have prepared early in the morning, or you can prepare things yourself. If the child catches the things that are put away, he will have a relationship with whomever, and when they get along, they will naturally have more closeness.
After the child was put away, there were no elders in the Qiao family. As a matter of course, Qiao Yingxuan asked Qiao Yingze to be the first to put things away. The master of the Yang family did not come over in person. Qiao Yingze glanced at Yang Yingmo's parents' brothers and saw their expressions. It was faint, and the younger one still showed a hint of unhappiness. Qiao Yingze sighed secretly in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he placed the inkstone that Qiao Yingxuan handed over on the carpet.
Although Gong Zhuoliang had the title of wife, as a man, he naturally stayed among these male dependents, so after Qiao Yingze finished putting things away, it was his turn. Published a pocket-sized hardcover edition of the Analects made of gold sheets and inlaid with rubies and jade beads, which really dazzled everyone's eyes.
"…"
The book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu. This is a common concept throughout the ages, and Gong Zhuoliang's display of such a thing is naturally very pleasing, but such a unique way of expression, everyone is really a little bit. Speechless, I thought that the outside world's evaluation of everyone's "wonderful ideas and informality" on this story book is really appropriate.
After Gong Zhuoliang, Qiao Yingxuan asked several wives and uncles to put them in order, and then other relatives and friends put things in no particular order. Then the nurse put the two little protagonists in the center of the hall. Although the little faces were almost identical, Qiao Yi Yue was obviously more energetic than his younger brother. After being put down, he shook his head and looked around, not afraid of life at all, while Qiao Minren sat there timidly and seemed to have no interest in the things around him. Qiao Yiyue moved first, hesitating for a moment between Lu Zijian's small jewel-encrusted dagger and Gong Zhuoliang's small gold book, still feeling that the little gold book was a little brighter, so she ran to the small gold book and grabbed it, taking care of herself. After playing with it, Qiao Minren seemed to be influenced by her, and also touched and played with the inkstone placed by Qiao Yingze. Suddenly, the congratulations from all the guests sounded.
"You take all the benefits, I don't care, Ying Xuan, you promised me to be the godfather of the children."
After the guests had their own banquets, they gathered in the small hall again. Lu Zijian looked at the husbands who were holding one in each of their arms and followed each other, expressing that he was envious, jealous, and hated again as a loner. Then he hooked Qiao Yingxuan's neck and threatened.
Gong Zhuoliang and Qiao Yingze handed over the babies in their arms to the nanny to bring back to the inner house. They laughed at Lu Zijian's playful remarks. In fact, such an old child would really choose something, but because bright colors can attract their attention That's it, as for Qiao Minren's choice of the inkstone platform, in addition to the position just at hand, I'm afraid he usually plays too much, so it's a conditioned reflex.
"Yes, yes, my senior brother."
Qiao Yingxuan hurriedly covered his neck and smiled, led a few people to the table and accompany him for a round of drinks, and then asked them to wait for his return before going out to entertain the guests.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX in the inner house, Yang Yingmo, who was talking with her female family, heard the result of Zhou Zhou, and was secretly relieved. Finally, she didn't worry about it in vain. She has put away all her son's toys, so he can only play with the inkstone. .
"Is this something my sister-in-law put up?"
Taking the little golden book that her daughter caught from the nanny, Yang Yingmo played with it herself, only to find it delicate and pleasing, with a look of liking on her face.
Seeing this, the female family guests next to them also talked about Gong Zhuoliang's body, and their admiration was beyond words, and while Yang Yingmo accompanied them gossiping, she couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion in her heart.
It turned out that when Gong Zhuoliang first entered Beijing, Yang Yingmo felt really awkward. He felt that he was from a low background and a man, but he used the name of a sister-in-law to press himself everywhere. Later, I saw that he had never interfered in the affairs of the Dongfu side. , The knot in her heart has only been small, and she thinks that it will be good to go through each other in the future. Who knows that after only a few days of hard work, he has suddenly become the direct son of the palace family, and now he has won the appreciation of His Royal Highness Prince, look. Look at today's battle... How can anyone see their Dongfu family in the future?
There was something in her heart. After the guests left, Yang Yingmo went back to the room to rest. After hearing from the nurse that the eldest young master was a little surprised, Yang Yingmo kept crying after hugging her for a while. He asked the nanny to carry them back to their house and coax him, and he was alone in the house to rest, but after a while, Qiao Yingxuan, who smelled of alcohol, came back.
"Why do you drink so much wine?"
Yang Yingmo's frowning frowned, she got up and took off her clothes for Qiao Yingxuan. Just as she was about to ask the maid to bring in the sober soup, she was hugged by Qiao Yingxuan and fell on the bed together.
"Madame, madam, listen to me, I will start the martial arts exam next year, I will definitely work hard, and I will give you a jinshi title in the spring of the year afterward, madam, trust me, I will take good care of you and your children. Yes, our family, live happily ever after..."
Qiao Yingxuan smiled faintly and wanted to hug Yang Yingmo's waist, but she pushed her shoulders to get up and dodged. Qiao Yingxuan seemed to be drunk and had no strength to get up. He lazily kicked off his boots and rubbed himself into the bed. Lying there, his face was facing Yang Yingmo's direction, but his eyes were so confused that he could hardly open his eyes, and his voice became smaller and smaller, and finally seemed to have fallen asleep.
"It's not a good civil servant. You have to take some martial arts exams. What if you want to be a bodyguard or go straight to the military? This is a peaceful and prosperous world, what can you do..."
The one who complained when she was upset slipped out of her mouth. Yang Yingmo immediately regretted it after she reacted. She hurriedly looked at Qiao Yingxuan carefully and saw that he seemed to have fallen asleep, and her nervous heart just relaxed again.
Yang Yingmo knew that although Qiao Yingxuan looked cheerful and talkative, he was actually very stubborn, otherwise he would not have been so stiff with her parents' family, and since her whole life has been entrusted to him, it would be an unpleasant loss. The one who suffers is myself...
Thinking that Qiao Yingxuan had been keeping his promise and not taking a concubine, and that it was so nice to treat himself, Yang Yingmo felt awkward for a while, and wanted to take the initiative to serve him and rest, but he couldn't stand the smell of alcohol, and finally turned around and sat outside to let him rest. The maids came in to change his clothes... Yang Yingmo didn't know that, when she chose to walk out with her back to Qiao Yingxuan, she also walked out of Qiao Yingxuan's heart.
"Are you out of luck..."
Qiao Yingxuan, who should have fallen asleep, turned over and faced the bed, a bitter smile reluctantly evoked at the corner of his mouth, and then quickly disappeared.
If his family hadn't been defeated, he and Yang Yingmo could have more time to cultivate their relationship, and they hadn't had such a stalemate with the Yang family, maybe they wouldn't be like this now, but now... Forget it, do what you should Do, and then, that's it.
At the same time, Qiao Yingzefu and Qiao Yingzefu were walking in the yard to digest food.
"By the way, Ying Ze, you said that next year is His Majesty's Jiazi's birthday, can you grant amnesty to the world?"
Walking slowly with Qiao Yingze, Gong Zhuoliang remembered hearing them mention His Majesty's birthday today, and he couldn't help thinking of the issue of amnesty for the world. Now that Master Qiao has been convicted for more than a year, he doesn't know that he lives in exile. How's it going... It's impossible to think about it.
Taking back his divergent thinking, Gong Zhuoliang focused his attention on the issue of amnesty again. It stands to reason that what Mr. Qiao committed is not a heinous crime. If he can really amnesty, even if he can't completely exonerate his guilt, he will probably be able to reduce the punishment. Bar.
"It should be."
Qiao Yingze thought for a while, and felt that ten and eighty-nine would be amnesty once, and he couldn't help thinking of a family far away in Xingcheng.
