Li Zhen got a blessing in disguise, and was worried about how to get closer to Song Yingbai, so his grandfather helped him.

Song Yingbai ordered his servants to tidy up a clean guest room for Li Zhen to live in, and assigned a few maids to serve him, trying to make him feel at home.

On the surface, Li Zhen pretended to be melancholy about being kicked out of the house by his grandfather, but he wished that his grandfather would force him to continue.

If grandfather compromised and sent someone to invite him back, that would be a situation he didn't want to see.

Fortunately, their family has a stubborn temper. The old man beat his grandson away. Recently, when he thinks of him, he would scold him from the air. The people next to him saw that he was so angry that no one dared to go up to the bad luck. Instead, the big housekeeper Send someone to the Jinyiwei yamen to deliver a message, telling the young master not to go home in the near future, and tell him when the Duke's anger subsides.

Good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. Soon, the story of Li Zhen being kicked out of the house because of refusing to marry spread like wildfire.

-

Some casinos in the capital only accept high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and the locations are also very hidden. The cooks and singers who are equipped inside are all first-class, and even the servants who pour tea and water try their best to choose those who are good-looking. .

Holding the dice in his hand, Zhou Xuan stared at the other players on the table, as long as he rolled a big four this time, he would be able to turn the game over.

"Young Master, hurry up." The man on the opposite side urged, and the pretty woman who accompanied him picked a grape and handed it to him, but he was not in the mood to eat it, so he pushed the beauty away.

"What's the reminder!" Zhou Xuan seemed to be brewing a burst of true energy, holding his breath and begging God to help him, let him make a comeback.

The moment he was about to throw the dice, someone grabbed his shoulder from behind, and he was furious immediately, turning around angrily, "Who is it?"

After meeting Li Zhen's sharp eyes, he was discouraged, slapped the dice on the table, and said to the others: "I won't play anymore."

Someone next to him didn't recognize Li Zhen, "Others are playing while opening the door, what are you doing?!" As soon as he finished speaking, other people covered his mouth, dragged him aside, and apologized to Li Zhen, "He's drunk and Don’t choose what to say, don’t take it to your heart.”

If you offend him, this place will be taken over.

Zhou Xuan's reason for Li Zhen's coming to him, like a mirror in his heart, went downstairs with him, found a secluded place to sit down, and begged for forgiveness first, "I know I'm sorry for you, but it's hard for me. Mother thinks my aunt and mother are pitiful, and she has cared about them since childhood, even more than I do."

"Don't talk about this kind of prevarication nonsense. Let me ask you, what is your cousin's origin, and why does he want to marry into Li's family?"

Zhou Xuan confessed everything he knew,

"It's that simple?"

"What I heard is that simple, there is no concealment." Zhou Xuan had long heard that the old Duke was furious and kicked Li Zhen out of the house, and was worried that he would take the blame on himself, so he answered cautiously.

Li Zhen listened, but said nothing.

Zhou Xuan sighed: "I have already said that Li Zhen can marry a better one, and told my mother and aunt not to bring shame on myself, but in the end, no one listened to me. Now my mother is still urging my father to continue to go to the house to follow him." The old man discussed it, but my father is in poor health, and his face cannot be wiped off, and he does not move, my mother will be making trouble at home, so I have no choice but to hide."

From what it sounds like, it's indeed just a simple marriage, "Does anyone doubt why your uncle appeared?"

"It may be his anniversary. This year is the tenth year since he died in battle."

It is not a strange thing for a dead person to appear. Li Zhen is not afraid of a living person, let alone a dead person.

To be honest, although Zhou Xuan had a premonition, he was very happy to know that Li Zhen rejected his cousin mercilessly.

Li Zhen refused this marriage, and he might embrace the beauty.

"You really don't know how to marry my cousin?" Zhou Xuan tested Li Zhen's attitude again.

"There is no possibility, go back and tell them, let's die." If it was someone else, the parents ordered the matchmaker's words, and they definitely didn't have the confidence, but he was different. If he said he would not marry, no one could force him into the bridal chamber.

Zhou Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. He knew Li Zhen's temper, and he did what he said. It seemed that he was not tempted at all. According to this situation, he would rather live outside for the rest of his life than compromise.

After Li Zhen left, Zhou Xuan was in a good mood, and luck also came. After a few strokes, he turned the tables and went home happily.

I heard that the maid said that Aunt Wang brought her cousin again, so she hurried to the upper room, and saw both aunt and cousin there as soon as she entered the door.

My aunt looked sad, my cousin was crying, and my mother was sullen and full of resentment.

When Mrs. Cheng Ninghou saw Zhou Xuan, she was annoyed: "Where did you go again? With this skill, you can't persuade your father to stand out for your cousin again?"

Zhou Xuan said embarrassingly: "Mother, my father is a big man, and it is too embarrassing for him to talk about things that women should take care of, such as marriage and marriage. Besides, I met Li Zhen today, and he told me , he has no intention of getting married, so it's useless even if you tell my father to break through the threshold of Duke Jing's mansion."

As soon as he finished speaking, his cousin stood up with tears in his eyes, "What exactly did he say?"

Zhou Xuan rolled his eyes, in order to make his cousin completely give up, "He told me that it is impossible to be a regular wife! Listen to this, do you want to be a concubine?"

Under normal circumstances, when Miss Boudoir hears such words, she must be furious. No matter how much Ren likes the other party, she will feel deeply insulted and give up since then.Individuals would even hate each other, feeling that they had been deceived by lard, and they would actually fall in love with a shameless person.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, his mother and Aunt Wang twisted up their veils, with angry expressions on their faces.

Mrs. Cheng Ninghou said angrily: "Really, is the threshold of their Li family inlaid with gold? Do you really think everyone wants to cross it?"

Aunt Wang was so angry that she was so darling, it was already hurtful for him to blatantly refuse, how could she say such humiliating words, "I can't think of such a wise man as the old Duke who can teach Such a grandson!"

Justice was filled with indignation to crusade against Li Zhen's shamelessness, and Zhou Xuan heard his cousin stop sobbing, and said: "Well, I will be a concubine."

There was a thunder on the ground, and Mrs. Cheng Ninghou and her mother were blown up, "My child, are you crazy?"

Zhou Xuan also opened his mouth wide in shock, cousin lost his mind and went crazy?It's just that I met Li Zhen once in a dream. As for wanting to marry him so frantically? !

Aunt Wang was surprised and angry, "Ruo'er, do you know what you're talking about?"

Of course Ye Xian knew it, and she was very clear that she was just a maid. When she was in the prefect of Yuantong, she saw the aunts at home and felt that they were doing well, at least much better than maids and servants. It was her unattainable dream.

She is not Yang Ruo in her heart now, she is just a little girl from a peasant family, being a concubine, for her, has no psychological burden.

Besides, the concubine still has someone to help her, as long as she gets married in, take her time and it will be fine. I am so beautiful, I don't believe that the other party will not have feelings for her for a long time.

She nodded with tears in her eyes, "I know being a concubine doesn't look good, but I can only enter the door of their Li family. I don't want to be a regular wife, so I can only be a concubine."

If it were someone else, she would have slapped her in the face long ago, but Aunt Wang only had such a daughter, and she felt very distressed, and asked kindly: "If you are worried about your own life, mother promises to find you another one who can protect you." man."

Mrs. Cheng Ninghou kept shaking her head, obviously very disappointed with her niece, silently picked up the tea cup, and took a small sip.

At this time, I heard my niece say in a weak mosquito voice: "I can only follow him, because... because in the dream, we went to Wushan together."

"Pfft——" Mrs. Cheng Ninghou took a mouthful of tea and sprayed it directly from her mouth and nose. She hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe it, and said anxiously: "What?"

Zhou Xuan's jaw almost fell to the ground, oh my god, can it still be like this? !If one day a woman from a good family also said that she dreamed of him, and the two of them had a romantic relationship in the dream, wouldn't he also have to take her into the backyard? !But I have to say, what my cousin said, if I don't enter Li Zhen's house, it seems that I can't marry someone else.

Mrs. Cheng Ninghou came to her senses and said to her son, "Go out soon?!"

Zhou Xuan had no choice but to leave, and said dissatisfied in his heart, it was his cousin who said it on his own initiative, so how could he be blamed for listening?

However, in this way, even though the cousin is still a virgin physically, she is no different from a woman in heart, he lost most of his interest in her in an instant, and when his mother urged him, he simply left.

When there were only three women left in the house, Aunt Wang looked helplessly at Mrs. Cheng Ninghou, "Sister, what should I do?"

"What should I do..." Mrs. Cheng Ninghou said in a panic, "Yes, what should I do?!"

For those who committed crimes, Li Zhen expressed his attitude that he would not marry, could he only be a concubine?Being a concubine does not require his consent, after all, there is no need for a wedding, and he does not need to cooperate, just carry it into Duke Jing's mansion in a sedan chair.

However, it is not a trivial matter for a niece to become a concubine, it is too embarrassing.

"Mother, if I don't follow him, who else can I follow?! I think I'm already his, and if he doesn't want me, I too...I won't live anymore." After she finished speaking, she got up and ran away covering her face. , ran all the way back to the carriage.

As soon as she entered the carriage, she stuck out half of her tongue mischievously, and said with a smile, "Li Zhen, let's see what you do this time."

If it was admiration at the beginning, then she can't explain her psychology clearly now, there is an element of anger in it.

She clearly made a wish to Yubone, and she was about to be happy, but Li Zhen's refusal to marry her made her dreams shattered.

Then, she insisted on pestering him!About to enter the door of his house!

Big deal, she will make another wish on the fishbone and change her body, next time she will be a princess Dangdang.

Not long after, her mother chased her out, hugged her and comforted her, "Don't worry about it, your mother will find a way for you. If it really doesn't work, then you should be a concubine first, and it will be a big deal to help you."

She pursed her lips, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

The fishbone was always on her body, never leaving her for a moment, even sleeping by her side.

In her sleep, she felt that the fish bone was terribly hot, so she sat up quickly, poured the fish bone out of the bag, and fanned it with her sleeve, but the temperature of the fish bone did not drop but rose. She looked around and ran barefoot Going to the table, he threw the fishbone into the brush wash.

The water in the brush wash was freshly replaced by the maid. It was clear and clean. Once the fish bones went in, it was as if the fish had returned to the river. Instead of sinking to the bottom, it was slowly assembled. The scattered fish bones reconstituted the skeleton of a fish. .

She took a deep breath, and under the moonlight, she saw a pair of white fish bones swimming in the water, and said in a trembling voice, "You, are you alive?"

"It's not completely alive, but it's not dead."

Suddenly, she heard a muffled voice in her mind, it was the voice of the carp who talked to her that day.

"Great, then you are resurrected, so you have stronger mana?" She said happily: "Li Zhen doesn't want to marry me, can you think of a way?"

"Hehe, you should have discovered that I am not omnipotent. If my mana reaches that level, I will not be cooked. I can only make the best of the situation and try to create conditions for you to realize your wishes. For example, if you want gold , I can't conjure gold out of thin air, I can only send you to the scene where other people lost gold. If you are a man and want a beautiful wife, I will find you a beautiful concubine who escaped from a rich family, Send you to her, and the rest will depend on wages."

She pouted, "Well, I also noticed it. You found me the identity of a beautiful young lady who was loved by my mother, and the dead father was still the old department of Li Zhen's grandfather. It stands to reason that if the old man nods, I should be able to marry I went in, but he's not easy to get along with, so I just can't get married, hmph, the conditions are all met, the time and place are right, and it's just a matter of harmony."

"You're smarter than I thought, very good, very good, haha." Yubone laughed muffled.

"However, I have made up my mind. If he doesn't marry me, I will stick to him and be his concubine first and then his wife!"

"Hehe, you didn't make a wish during the day today. If he refuses you again, will you become a princess? Your ambition is really big."

"Then can you do it? If I really want to be a princess."

"I'm afraid it's going to be difficult. First of all, I don't dare to make a move on the princess's golden branches and jade leaves. Moreover, even your current body was found by great luck. This Miss Yang fell from the rockery, and the master's soul fell into a coma. , you, a foreign soul, can live in this body."

"Could it be that she is not dead?"

"Not dead, she's still sleeping in this body, but as long as she doesn't wake up, it's up to you."

"Is she awake?"

"It depends on whether you can snatch her away."

"Hey." Then she remembered her real body, "What about my original body? It's been so many days, could it be rotten?"

"No, although it's an empty shell, it's not dead yet. The Yuan family gave your stepmother ten taels of silver and told her to take it back. She forced a bowl of rice soup every day to keep her alive. After all, you can't starve to death as soon as you take it home."

Ye Xian thought for a while, "It doesn't matter anymore, anyway, I don't want that kind of body anymore."

Fishbone wagged its tail in the pen wash, "Hehe, okay, do you have any wishes?"

"...Is to marry Li Zhen, but you can't do it." Ye Xian pouted, "Besides, why did you suddenly come back to life? You were still a bone of bones that didn't respond to how you screamed yesterday."

Because you have the desire to be a princess, the energy provided by this thought is enough to wake it up.

Although the victim was slaughtered, as long as the bones are still there, and someone provides greed for it to absorb, it can be resurrected.

Slowly, it will return to its original appearance, just around the corner.

So after death, it is the most important step to piece together the bones and preserve them, and have someone provide them with greed.

It told her she could make a wish to it, and she did, ok, that was great.

"This is to make people stronger than the situation. You should make another wish." Yubone induced: "Why don't you just make a wish, and go to his sweetheart?"

She found a flaw, "Didn't you say that I can only enter if the soul of the original body is in a coma? His sweetheart, if she is not in a coma, how can I control her body?"

"Hehe, I can see that you don't have that deep affection for him. You have thought about it yourself. At worst, you need to change your body. It shows that you don't plan to stay with him forever. So, it doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman, a man or a man. For that matter, if the main soul is there, you won't be able to move in as easily as Ms. Yang's body, but with my magic power, when the other party is fast asleep and the consciousness is not clear enough, I will let you control it for an hour or two. It can still be done. Since he is his sweetheart, he is definitely willing to be with you...hehe...an hour or two is enough."

After hearing this, Ye Xian snorted, "You're a male carp, right? Your thoughts are so obscene. My daughter doesn't think that sleeping with someone she likes is fulfilling her wish."

"Oh? Do you have any noble ideas?"

"...I...don't know yet." She said, "Anyway, it's definitely not the kind of commitment."

At this time, the servant girl from Shangye heard the young lady talking to herself, and came in with a light on, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine, you go out!" She pushed the servant girl out, and when she turned around and came back, she found that the fishbone in the brush washer was gone. She went to the bed and found that the fishbone had returned to the bag, so she put it Put it away, and fell asleep in my arms.

A day later, news came that made her "angry". Li Zhen said that there was nothing she could do, no way.

The mother still felt ashamed and dared not speak directly to the Duke's mansion, but quietly sent someone to inform Li Zhen to find out what he said, but she got a reply that being a concubine was not acceptable.

She was so angry that her cheeks were flushed, and she shut herself in the room, pouted angrily, "It's not okay to lower yourself like this, he just looks down on people!"

When I was a maid, I was looked down upon by others, but when I changed my identity, I was still looked down upon by others. At the time of "love at first sight", I thought he was out of character, but now that I think about it, he is actually just arrogant.

She poured the fish bones into the clear water, "Does he really have a sweetheart?"

"Hehe, of course I did. You went to see him in the car that day, and I also took a look at him. Don't forget that I am a carp that can grant wishes. I can see clearly what everyone wants. He Ah, I have a sweetheart, and I'm still very persistent. But, it's a man."

Ye Xian opened her mouth wide in surprise, feeling that she had been doing futile work, and angrily picked up a pen to poke the fish bone, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

I told you earlier, would you still keep making wishes, "You just made a wish to marry him, but you didn't tell him to like you. Even if he doesn't like women, as long as his parents agree, it won't delay your marriage."

She was speechless, but her heart was extremely angry, "Anyway, I can't swallow this breath, so let me go to his sweetheart's body!"

Fishbone wags its tail, "Hehe, okay."

-

After being released from the yamen, Song Yingbai waited for Li Zhen to go home together. After waiting for a long time, no one was seen. He was about to send someone to take a look, but he didn't want Chu Qiu to come in a hurry, "Master Li is urgently called into the palace, he told you not to wait Alright, let's go home first."

Li Zhen was different from him. He mainly had contact with the royal relatives. He was most likely the most "low-end" person he had direct contact with. Song Yingbai knew this and went home first.

Just after entering the alley, he saw a somewhat familiar person walking back and forth in front of his house with his sleeves tucked in his sleeves. After a few more steps, he recognized him, "Isn't this Liu Yuchun, long time no see."

At any rate, Liu Yuchun had lived with him as a neighbor for a year, and the relationship wasn't very good, but it could be considered friendship.

When Liu Yuchun heard Song Yingbai's voice, he let out a sigh of relief, "Thank God, so you really live here." He stepped forward, but seeing no one around, he pulled Song Yingbai aside, clasped his hands together and begged, "I I want to ask for one thing, for the sake of my neighbors, please help me."

"Then let's talk about it." If he can help, he will help, but first of all it depends on the nature of it.

"It's like this. I have a distant cousin who won a Jinshi a few years ago. Now he is in charge of the Ministry of Rites. A few days ago, he opposed the emperor's selection of court ladies with others. Today, he was punished and said that the imperial staff will be executed tomorrow."

Executing the imperial staff against officials was the first of its kind in the country. To put it bluntly, the emperor ordered Jin Yiwei to drag out the officials who rebelled against his dragon scales to beat the board.

The so-called human effort, if you have the mind, a few boards will break the bones, causing people to vomit blood and die. If you want to save your life, you can go down with [-] or [-] boards. After a month, the skin trauma will heal and you will walk like flying.

Song Yingbai understood his intentions, "But the court stick is the work of the brocade guards in the palace, and I, the governor of Beizhen, can't do it."

"But I heard that the commander is working in Tianjin Wei recently, and the person in charge of supervising the court staff is most likely Lord Li. I heard that you have a very close relationship with Lord Li, so I hope you can accommodate me. My cousin is the least courageous, and I usually don't If he dares to make trouble, he sees that other people are going away, and he is afraid of being isolated, so he blindly follows." Liu Yuchun secretly took out a stack of things from his sleeve, and fortified it to Song Yingbai, "This is a little kindness from his family."

Song Yingbai took a look, the bank note is very rich, no one would think that the money is small, as long as he opens his sleeves, it will be his.

It seems that the civil service group also pays close attention to the movements of the "enemy" and knows that Li Zhen's good friend is him.

"I'm afraid... the royal staff is the emperor's intention, who dares to release water." Song Yingbai blocked the silver ticket back.

"It is said that there are dozens of courtiers in the Shangshu this time. My cousin is not the mastermind and does not attract attention. It's just that he is not in good health. He usually collapses when the wind blows. He really can't stand a few boards. Only his wife He gave birth to twins, and the child is only a few months old, so he really can't live without a father." Liu Yuchun bent his knees, "Please help him."

Every time the ministers fought against the emperor, most of these cannon fodder who fought in the front line did not end well. They were killed, and they would have to wait for the imperial examination year to make up for it. The real mastermind behind the scenes was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.However, if you want to be on your own, you can’t do it without going to college. Everyone is a Jinshi, so why promote you?So you have to have a certificate of merit, such as resisting the emperor, and fighting for the powerful ministers.

"...Then what's his name?" Song Yingbai helped Liu Yuchun up, but he couldn't make him kneel down for him.

"Liu Yuxing." Seeing that there was hope, Liu Yuchun quickly said his name.

"I will mention something to Li Qian, but if the emperor insists on beating him to death, there is no room for manipulation, and I can't help it."

"I know I know."

The actual situation is often that the emperor has no time to pay attention to such a small role.

Liu Yuchun thanked Song Yingbai a thousand times and watched him enter the mansion before leaving.

Li Zhen came back very late, and Song Yingbai had already had dinner, so he sat with him and drank alone.

"These people are quite well-informed, and they all found you here." Li Zhen hummed while listening to Song Yingbai talking about Liu Yuchun's pleading.

"Yeah, who told you to be stern and selfless." Song Yingbai joked: "However, can this matter be done? It doesn't matter if it can't be done, the main thing is not to affect you."

Li Zhen looked at him with a smile, "You care about me so much?"

"Of course, wouldn't it be silly to put myself in it without any help?"

"Don't worry." Li Zhen put his arm on his shoulder and said with a smile, "I won't let you lose face in front of your old neighbor, Liu Yuxing, right? For you, I have to save his life no matter what .”

Song Yingbai took his arm away, "Don't do this, it's too hot."

Li Zhen was honest for a while, and then found the topic again: "Someone came to me this morning and told me that the young lady of the Yang family wanted to be my concubine. I replied directly that there is no way, and I can't do anything."

Song Yingbai looked at him with an empty wine glass, "I am willing to be a concubine? Why does she love you so much? But it is understandable."

"Understand what?" Li Zhen quickly filled him with wine.

You probably don't know that there is a kind of person called Yan Kong, "You are good-looking, maybe she fell in love with you at first sight somewhere, that's why she stays with you no matter the cost."

Li Zhen was flattered, "Do you think I'm good-looking?"

Song Yingbai looked at him while drinking, "Yeah, what's the matter." Tch, why are you so proud, I'm not bad, young master.

Li Zhen suddenly came up with a dangerous idea, like a raging fire, which was out of control. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the right time, place and people should be put into action.

He changed the subject in an orderly manner, from the ministers of the court to the court staff tomorrow, seeing Song Yingbai drinking one cup after another, not only did not dissuade him, but kept chatting to distract him.

Song Yingbai was at his home, so he was not on guard, and the other party was Li Zhen, so he didn't pay attention at all. When he realized that he had drunk too much, his eyelids were already heavy with drunk.

He rubbed his eyes vigorously, "...I'll go back first."

"Wait for me for a while, I'll leave after drinking this cup." Li Zhen pushed him back on the chair, "You stay with me for a while, just for a while."

Song Yingbai's legs were weak, and he didn't bother to walk. After sitting down, he rested his chin on one hand, "Then hurry up."

Li Zhen dawdled deliberately, and saw Song Yingbai resting his chin with one hand instead of resting his forehead with one hand, and after a while, he lay down on the table and fell asleep.

He called him twice, but there was no response, so he moved the chair to his side.

Li Zhen reached out and touched his cheek, his eyelashes trembled a few times, but he didn't open his eyes.

Li Zhen couldn't help becoming more courageous. He leaned forward slightly, and he could hear the other party's exhalation so close that he held his breath nervously. His eardrums were filled with the sound of a drum-like heartbeat. In the end, desire overcame everything , and lightly dropped a kiss on his cheek.
