Today is also a day to exploit system loopholes

Chapter 40 The River God Gets His Wife

"...Neither."

Jin Queli shook his head innocently, "Then I don't know."

Qin was completely annoyed.Hey, where is this brat pretending to be with him?Do you have to force him to spank his ass?

"Stand up for me!"

Jin Queli pursed his lips, stood up unsteadily from his seat, covered his face and said aggrievedly, "Prime Minister, your face hurts."

Qin Suxi: ...

face pain?

Does your conscience ache?

Qin Suxi couldn't help complaining to the system: "System, why do I feel like my intimate little padded jacket has changed?"

System: ...hehe.

In the end, a certain prime minister sat in the carriage and rubbed the face of a certain bastard all the way.

When getting off the car, Jin Queli smiled brightly, and stood outside the prime minister's mansion, turning around and said, "It's great to be with the prime minister every day from now on!"

Qin Suxi: ...

Dog stuff, nmsl!

Wait, why did he feel like cursing him like he was helping him?

No matter what Qin Suxi thinks, and no matter whether others like it or not, his appointment as Jin Queli's tutor is so settled.

But Qin Suxi was still annoyed by the surprise attack that Jin Queli gave him, so he didn't give the little boy a good look for a long time (he thought).

And after the New Year's Eve banquet, it means that the draft has to be put on the agenda...

"Luan Yan, have you really thought about it?"

On the day of the draft, Qin Suxi asked in front of the palace gate.

Luan Yan smiled, looked at him and said, "My lord, from today onwards I will be a flower lover, please don't call me wrong again."

"Oh, that's all."

Qin Suxi deliberately risked being electrocuted to give her a chance to repent.Since she doesn't want it, let her do it.

He opened the sedan chair curtain slightly, and said coldly to the guards carrying the chariot: "Go into the palace."

In the past, the draft was either in the Chuxiu Palace or in front of Qianqingmen.But this time, Emperor Jin Ming was brought by Qin Suxi to the lake connected by the stream next to the Linxi Pavilion.

Looking at the empty lake, there are only large swathes of reeds shaking.

Emperor Jin Ming asked with a puzzled look: "Su Xi, isn't there a talent show? Why did you bring me here?"

Qin Suxi smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, have you ever heard of the river god marrying a wife?"

Emperor Jin Ming raised his eyebrows, "Let's talk and listen."

Qin Suxi explained slowly: "I heard that in the old days, in order to pray for good weather, people would choose a young girl and dress her up as a bride. Then let her sit on a bamboo raft and push her down from the upper reaches of the river. Send it to the river god to be his wife."

"If the river god is satisfied, he will let the bamboo raft go down the river. And in the next year, he will ensure that the whole village will be in good weather..."

"Is there such a thing as saying?"

Emperor Jin Ming narrowed his eyes, "But Su Xi. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the draft."

Qin Suxi bowed his head, smiled without saying a word.

How could it not matter?

As the emperor, you are the god of all the people.They rely on your joy and anger to survive, and even sell their own daughters to please you.

It's a pity that Qin Suxi will probably never say these words in his life.Because he is a sycophant, or a sycophant who has been favored by the river god.

In the end, he could only ask people to pick out straw ropes from the lake.

Then he handed it to Emperor Jin Ming and said, "Your Majesty, behind the reeds on this lake, there are many bamboo rafts. And behind every straw rope here are those bamboo rafts hidden behind the reeds, on which beautiful girls sit."

"It's like marrying a god with a wife. If you pull a bamboo raft ashore, you will choose a beautiful girl."

"What do you think, Your Majesty?"

It's like drawing marriage lines at both ends of Yuelao Bridge, which not only gives people a sense of expectation and mystery.Once you win the lottery, it's not called a draft, but a destined marriage.

"That's interesting."

Sure enough, Emperor Jin Ming seemed to have a strong interest in the straw ropes held by the eunuchs.

Straight praise: "Let the prime minister bother."

After speaking, he chose a rope at random.

He pulled the rope back hard, and after pulling it for a long time, he found that the grass rope was not moving at all!Emperor Jin Ming's complexion darkened a little, and he changed another rope, but the result was still the same.

Wang Gonggong approached Qin Suxi anxiously, and asked in a low voice: "Master Qin, what should we do! Or, the slave will send someone to help His Majesty?"

Qin Suxi shook his head, and said calmly, "Be safe and don't be impatient."

He tied some heavy sandbags under the bamboo rafts except Luan Yan.If Emperor Jin Ming could pull it, it would be a ghost!

Qin Suxi was not afraid that Emperor Jin Ming would be angry, after all, according to how much the other party trusted him as a courtier, he could blame the river god for the reason, saying that the river god thought the marriage was inappropriate.

It is estimated that the other party also believed it.

There were thirteen straw ropes in total, and Emperor Jin Ming pulled it seven times before reaching the lightest one.

He didn't report any hope at first, but just tugged lightly.But that grass rope seemed to be enchanted, and it started to move forward by itself!

On the clear lake, a woman wearing a white gauze dress stands on the water, appearing leisurely from among the uneven reeds.

And there is no bamboo raft under her feet, only a slender green bamboo.It's like, stepping on water!

Falling waves and autumn colors are far away, and a reed crosses the river and sky.

The woman was covered with a veil, only revealing a pair of eyes like autumn water.But it was also this pair of gentle eyes that were so beautiful that people couldn't help but want to sink into them.

I saw her gently shaking the pole and slowly paddling from the other side of the lake, like a fairy walking out of a painting.

Although I only saw it once, but that appearance was deeply imprinted in Emperor Jin Ming's mold.

I saw the fairy in the painting falling into the altar by herself, took off her veil and said softly:

"My little girl Hua Xiren, I have seen Your Majesty."

She jumped down from the moso bamboo and stood in front of everyone with a smile on her face.That voice completely overlapped with the "Sapphire Case" she played and sang at that time.

Emperor Jin Ming seemed to be stunned.

Eunuch Wang also recognized that Luan Yan was the woman who sang in the Huxin Building that day!

It was like seeing a ghost in my heart.

That day he ran all over the big and small brothels in the capital, but he couldn't find this girl who called Hua Xiren.Why did she appear in this palace for no reason in today's draft!Could it be that the river god really appeared?

Soon, Wang Gonggong rejected his absurd idea in his heart, and turned his head to look at Qin Suxi, who had no surprise on his face.

Sure enough, it was Prime Minister Qin who had great powers.

It's just... This girl has a moso bamboo under her feet, how did she float from the water?

After regaining his senses, Emperor Jin Ming patted Qin Suxi's shoulder vigorously, and said in a deep voice, "Reward Prime Minister Qin with a thousand taels of gold! Order the Ministry of Rites to enshrine Hua Xiren as a concubine and live in Fuchen Hall!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

I thought Luan Yan would be good enough to get the position of Zhaoyi, but Emperor Jin Ming wanted to make her a concubine on a whim!

"Your Majesty, the rest of the ladies..." Qin Suxi asked tentatively again.

Emperor Jin Ming patted him on the shoulder without turning his head, and said quietly: "Just one Qing is enough."

The system couldn't restrain its excitement and said: "The host is great! Luan Yan has already been canonized as a concubine! There are only two steps left from the imperial concubine. If there is no accident, we will get 5000 points immediately!"

Qin Suxi let out a long sigh, shook his head and said nothing.

The system asked very strangely: "Host, we are about to complete the task, why are you unhappy?"

"I just find it ironic."

Qin Suxi slowly said to the system: "Tell me, if Treasurer Luan knows that his daughter, whom he was reluctant to use 1000 taels of silver to redeem, is now worth a thousand taels of gold. Will he regret it?"

The system did not expect that its own host turned out to be such a sad person.

It couldn't help but silently comforted from the side: "Master, host, don't feel guilty! After all, Luan Yan did it voluntarily. And even if his father knew about it, he would probably only regret that he didn't sell his daughter for more money!"

"That's what you said."

Qin Suxi agreed, and then continued: "Oh, that's right!"

System: "What's wrong?"

Qin Suxi looked serious, "System, you should learn to pay attention to your words."

system:? ? ?

"For example, after this task is completed, I will get 5000 points, not us."

Some systems grinned, thinking: **/#&? !

"Master Qin, Lord Qin!"

While the others were not resting, Wang Gonggong suddenly tugged on Qin Suxi's sleeve, and said with a bitter face: "This draft has always been only for official women to participate in the election. She, she is a brothel girl, how do you let a slave enter the clan?" The classics of the government and the Ministry of Rites!"

"Who said she was a brothel girl?"

Qin Suxi raised his eyebrows and said: "From now on, she is the righteous sister of this official!"

Eunuch Wang:? ? ?

There is still such an operation!

……

Unlike ordinary beautiful girls entering the harem, concubine concubine is not a trivial matter, it has to be done step by step according to the etiquette system.Canonization ceremony, greeting card, imitation of characters... all are indispensable.

But when the people in the Ministry of Rites do these messy things, they always move extremely fast.

Everything that needs to be prepared will be ready soon.Therefore, the date of becoming a concubine was planned to be five days later.Now that Luan Yan has been left with a sign, it is natural that he will temporarily live in Chuxiu Palace, and then move to Fuchen Palace after the Concubine Conferment Ceremony.

There were still two people when they came, and when they went back, Qin Suxi was alone.

When I first returned to the mansion, I hadn't got off the sedan chair yet.He saw Jin Queli stumbling towards him like a cerebellar ax that had been having fun.

"Prime Minister!"

Jin Queli threw himself into Qin Suxi's arms, secretly surprised how he slept so soundly last night that he didn't even know when the prime minister left.

Qin Suxi was bored, but he managed to elicit a smile, rubbed Jin Queli's little head and put him down, "Prime Minister still has something to do, you can go and play by yourself first."

Jin Que secretly speculated to himself: It's been so long, is he still angry with himself at the New Year's Eve banquet?
