Emperor made a pair
Chapter 13
Yun Tian thought to himself that Long Teng is really a good place for outstanding individuals, and any man he pulls out can be directly on the cover of a magazine.
He clasped his fists like a person in the world and said, "What's the name of the young man?"
"Duan Hongfang." The purple-clothed youth folded his arms, with a long sword between his elbows, "I won't ask for your name, but I just wonder if you've eaten enough?"
"So Duan Shaoxia was waiting for this table."
The corners of the purple-clothed boy's eyes twitched, and he said, "Of course, people in the capital like to go to restaurants to eat, so it's hard for me to find a place to drink."
Yun Tian really wanted to give up the table to this beautiful boy, but... "We still have one dim sum and two soups."
Duan Hongfang was dumbfounded: "Sir, you really have a good appetite!"
"It's so-so," Yun Tian signaled Ming Shu to move his position, "If Duan Shaoxia doesn't mind, come and eat with us. If you stare at my table, we are destined. I'll treat you to this meal."
Duan Hongfang wasn't a coy person at that time, and he was addicted to alcohol, so he couldn't wait for Yuntian to leave, so he graciously sat beside Yuntian.
There is also half a jar of Furong Xianjiu on the table, which is the most expensive wine in Jianghai Tower.Duan Hongfang picked up the wine jar and smelled it, but shook his head and said: "This wine is not strong enough."
"Young hero likes strong wine? It's not easy, Xiao Er, bring two jars of burning knives!" Yun Tian has read many martial arts novels, and knows that "burning knives" is a kind of alcohol with a high concentration, so he is very angry Shout out these three words.
Xiao Er said calmly: "I'm sorry, my lord, this shop doesn't sell burning knives. If you like spirits, you can try our Yipinxiang."
"Yipinxiang?" Duan Hongfang raised his eyebrows, "What is that? Young Master has never heard of it. Anyway, since there is no burning knife, let's come to Yipinxiang."
Duan Hongfang's drinking posture is very chic, raising his glass, raising his head, and draining the wine, he has a kind of boldness unique to martial arts people.Yun Tian thought he couldn't learn this kind of courage, so he stared at his long sword eagerly and asked, "Young Master Duan knows martial arts?"
"Yes, but I am best at medical skills."
"Ah? Are you a doctor?" Yun Tian was shocked.The quack doctors in his impression were old men with beards, but he had never heard of such a beautiful doctor.
"When did I tell you that I was a doctor?" Duan Hongfang looked at Yuntian displeasedly, and put his thumb on his chest, "Young master is the number one medical sage in the world, Daoist Danyi of Chifenggu... the apprentice!"
Yun Tian: "Pfft!"
Yan Si, Mingshu, Huiyu: "..."
Duan Hongfang rolled his eyes nonchalantly: "What are you laughing at? Do you think Daoist Dan Yi would accept anyone? If it wasn't for the young master's good qualifications, he wouldn't even take a look!"
Yun Tian was very helpless: "Didn't you say that doctors have a parental heart? To be a doctor, of course, the more apprentices the better, so that more effective resources can be injected into the society. Your master is quite strange."
Duan Hongfang shook his head: "Master heals illnesses, not for saving people, but for happiness."
Yun Tian can probably understand that the more skilled a person is, the more he likes to put on a show to show off his uniqueness.
After Duan Hongfang finished drinking, Yuntian and the others were also full, so Concubine Ning called Xiao Er and said, "Pay the bill."
Xiao Er smiled and said: "Guest officer, the total is 17 taels."
Yan Simian thought blankly: This store is quite expensive.
Yun Tian didn't move, Yan Si didn't move, Ming Shu and Huiyu didn't move, let alone Duan Hongfang, he was free food in the first place.
Xiaoer and Yuntian looked at each other for a while, and asked suspiciously: "Guest officer, who will settle this account?"
Yun Tian laughed dryly: "Wait a minute, aren't we discussing this?"
Xiao Er: "..."
Yun Tian turned to Yan Si, and said in a low voice, "Have you brought any money?"
Yan Si shook his head, when he went out with Zhao Haiqing, it was not his turn to pay.
Yuntian asked Mingshu Huiyu again: "What about you? Don't you take my money with you when you go out?"
Ming Shu said awkwardly: "Wang... the master has never given the young master silver taels."
Yun Tian went crazy: "Could it be that we didn't bring any money?!"
Yan Si: "...it seems, yes."
Seeing them muttering, Duan Hongfang was surprised and said, "What's the matter, everyone? You need to discuss the settlement?"
Yun Tian turned around calmly, and asked Xiao Er with a spring breeze on his face: "Can I pay on credit?"
"..." Xiaoer despised him silently in his heart, "Yes, I wonder which guest officer's account the young master will record?"
Yun Tian thought for a while and said, "Prince Ning's Mansion, Zhao Haiqing."
Xiao Er paused, and looked at Yun Tian in disbelief.
"This... Young Master, the prince's account can't be kept indiscriminately."
Yun Tian stamped his feet in embarrassment and impatience: "I didn't remember it randomly! I'm his old...I'm his younger brother!"
Only then did Xiao Er suspiciously run to ask the shopkeeper, and then returned: "Dare to ask the master's name?"
"My surname is Huang, Huang Yuntian."
Yun Tian thought to himself that Zhao Haiqing would not be so stupid that he couldn't even recognize his wife's alias, he shouldn't be angry, he just asked for a meal...
Duan Hongfang laughed loudly: "Young Master Huang has no money, you can just tell me, the young master can afford a meal." Then he took out his money bag and planned to pay the bill.
Yun Tian said angrily: "What are you talking about? I said I'm begging, so I'm begging! Yan Si, you go back to the house to get the silver taels..."
At this moment, a deep male voice came leisurely from the second floor.
"──Oh? I don't know what Mr. Huang is going to use to invite you?"
When Yun Tian first heard this voice, his whole body froze.
Yan Si also rarely showed a flustered expression, and quickly stood up from his seat.
Mingshu and Huiyu were so frightened that they were trembling, they had already lowered their heads and dared not look at the man who was coming down the stairs.
Zhao Haiqing was dressed in a black gown with falling patterns and a jade belt around his waist. He was tall and handsome, with a dignified appearance, solemn yet elegant and extravagant. It was a world of difference from Yuntian's embarrassing and restless appearance because he couldn't pay the bill. .
At this moment, Yuntian really wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in. He was very unwilling to be underestimated by Zhao Haiqing, but he clearly felt Zhao Haiqing's playful gaze.
Xiao Er hurriedly said: "My lord, this young master..."
Zhao Haiqing looked at Yun Tian in his spare time, and after a few seconds he said: "He is indeed my king's friend, so let's put it in my king's account."
"Yes Yes……"
After Zhao Haiqing came to the front, Yun Tian greeted him with a sullen face: "... How is the prince eating upstairs?"
Zhao Haiqing clung to his ear, and said ambiguously and mockingly: "It's better than Aifei, at least you don't have to worry about not being able to pay the bill."
"..." Yun Tian became more and more embarrassed, "I, I will pay you back when I go back."
"What will I pay for my beloved concubine? Sell the dowry?" Zhao Haiqing shook his head, "Forget it, you are the wife of this king, how can this king care about such a small amount of money with you."
He seemed to caress Yuntian's hair casually, and said: "Yan Si, you take Mingshu Huiyu back to the mansion first, and then I will sit upstairs with this young master Huang."
Yan Si paused, and replied respectfully: "Yes."
Duan Hongfang had been watching them talking as an outsider, until Yuntian was brought up the stairs by Zhao Haiqing, he smiled and called out: "Young Master Huang, I owe you a drink, we will meet later!"
Yun Tian was already embarrassed to look at him again, and waved with his back to Duan Hongfang.
Zhao Haiqing smiled and said: "It seems that the king will send you a monthly report."
"There's no need for the monthly case... In fact, it's a good idea to sell the dowry. I'll look back and see what my father gave me."
"This king said casually, are you serious? Concubine Ning actually sold her dowry, do you want me to be the laughing stock of the world?"
Yun Tian was neither right nor left, he scolded Zhao Haiqing who owed a beating seventeen or eight times in his heart, but he couldn't help but secretly made up his mind that he must find a way to make some money, financial independence is the real independence!
While imagining the bankrupt King Ning kneeling at his feet begging for help, he was led into a quiet private room by Zhao Haiqing.
After Yun Tian saw the people present, he was stunned for a moment.
The three men at the table were all dressed luxuriously, they seemed to be either officials or wealthy businessmen; but the most dazzling one was not them, but a girl.
The girl was wearing a light crimson hazy blouse, a string of simple and elegant hibiscus pearl pendants on her head, and a string of round pearls hanging on her slender, white and tender neck. Qiushui, at first glance, is not amazing, but it is very flavorful.Yun Tian couldn't tell what it was like, he just thought she could attract people to keep watching.
The man in the middle was about 30 years old, he saw Yun Tian behind King Ning, and a light flashed in his eyes, then he seemed to remember something, and immediately put on a serious look: "My lord, this is...? "
Zhao Haiqing took Yun Tian's hand and said, "He is my concubine."
Yun Tian originally thought that Zhao Haiqing would say that he was a friend or relative, but he didn't expect Zhao Haiqing to admit it so straightforwardly, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Oh - so it's Concubine Ning, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Everyone stood up to salute, looking at Yun Tian from time to time, obviously they didn't expect Concubine Ning to be such a handsome young man.There are not many beauties in Beijing and China, but it is indeed rare to see people who are so good-looking and can't pick out flaws.
The girl also stood up tenderly, bowed gracefully, and said: "Xinru from Yan's family, I have met Princess Ning."
Yan Xinru's voice was very pleasant, like a lark in the valley, Yun Tian knew that she was a woman from the Land of Fireworks after a little guessing, so he couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic: what a beautiful girl, she should have married a good family, but she ended up in this kind of place, what a pity.
Although he has broken sleeves, due to the nature of a man, he still has some sympathy for such a delicate woman, so Yun Tian sat beside Zhao Haiqing, and every once in a while he glanced at Yan Xinru, his eyes were like Looking at a lamb that fell into a pack of wolves.
When Yun Tian looked at Yan Xinru for the fourth time, Zhao Haiqing suddenly pinched Yan Xinru's thigh forcefully.
Yun Tian almost couldn't hold back the exclamation that was about to blurt out, and glared at him angrily.
"My concubine, try this lotus-flavored chicken." King Ning held a piece of chicken for Yuntian in a very gentle tone without changing his face, and fed it directly to his mouth, holding it with his hand to prevent the soup The juice stained Yuntian's clothes.
Embarrassed, Yun Tian subconsciously looked at everyone present, and then saw envy in Yan Xinru's eyes.
...beautiful men are really a disaster.Yun Tian silently cursed.
"Don't bother your lord, I was very full just now." Yun Tian looked away awkwardly.
King Ning looked at him for a few seconds, then suddenly sighed: "It's my fault, I should have left you some pocket money."
As he said, he put the chicken on the porcelain plate in front of Yuntian, and then took a top-quality cloud pattern jade pendant from his waist.
King Ning took Yun Tian's hand tenderly, and put the jade pendant into his palm, "This king didn't bring any silver, so use this to make amends to the princess first, okay?"
Yuntian had goosebumps all over his body. Compared with the domineering and tough man last night, this nasty guy seemed like a different person. He couldn't figure out why King Ning wanted to please him in front of his friends. In short, he would not be so stupid as to believe that King Ning did this out of sincerity.
"...Since the lord has the heart, I will not be polite." No matter what Zhao Haiqing thinks, Yuntian has always adhered to the principle of "don't take nothing, don't take it for nothing". Besides, he wants to give it, and no one forces him.
Yun Tian generously put away the jade pendant, and said with a smile, "Why are you all looking at me? Why don't you move your chopsticks?"
"Ahaha...the prince and the concubine are so affectionate, it is really enviable. I would like to respect you two!" The official with the mustache picked up the wine glass and drank it decisively. Don't pay back a cup of courtesy, but Zhao Haiqing shook his head slightly at him.
The other two men also toasted, and then Yan Xinru said in a soft voice: "The little girl is too strong to drink, so I will use the qin instead of wine to present a song "Xiyuehe" to the prince and princess. I wish you two forever." Get together and grow old together."
Although Yun Tian didn't take their blessings seriously, but Miss Yan is really a master at playing the piano.The melodious tones flowed like flowing water at her fingertips, coupled with her beautiful singing voice, it really felt like a kind of enjoyment.
After she sang, everyone was reminiscing about the beautiful voice, but they heard Yun Tian clapping her hands.
"Girl is so good at playing the piano! It's really that... lingering around the beam for three days, the lingering sound is endless!"
Yan Xinru pursed her lips and smiled: "The princess is overrated, the little girl only knows a little about piano skills."
"You count as 'slightly proficient' in this way, so what is considered 'proficient'?"
"Speaking of the No. 1 piano skills in Kyoto, it is naturally Miss Zhong Ling, the daughter of Prime Minister Zhong, who deserves this title."
Yan Xinru didn't know about the "love-hate entanglement" of these people, so she only said this factually.Zhong Ling has worshiped the qin sage as a teacher since she was a child, plus she is of noble birth, lively, and shows her skills whenever she has the opportunity to perform. Naturally, she is much more famous than other daughters raised in the boudoir.
Yan Xinru had no intention of speaking, but the others couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed after hearing it.
Zhong Ling was supposed to be Zhao Haiqing's wife, but now the princess is a man.Several people looked at King Ning anxiously, and found that there was no displeasure on his face, but looked at Yun Tian gently, so they were relieved.
Someone said: "Hahaha, no matter how beautiful Miss Zhong is, it's rare for us to hear it. Naturally, Miss Xinru is even better. Come on, let's play another song..."
The atmosphere at the banquet finally became more natural. Yun Tian glanced at Zhao Haiqing and found that he was holding a glass of wine in a trance, so he laughed softly: "Why, it's a pity?"
Zhao Haiqing looked back at him calmly, and said, "Does my concubine think this king should be a pity?"
Yun Tian scratched his neck with his palm, "If I were you, I would be so sad that I would not be able to eat or sleep well. I wish I could kill this male concubine who dared to block my happy love."
Yun Tian's words were meant as a joke, and he expected that Zhao Haiqing would not take it to heart.There are so many good women in the world, if he really likes them, who else would not marry based on his family background and appearance?Although she is his "lawful wife", she won't stop him from taking a concubine.
King Ning was noncommittal, and only looked at Yun Tian inscrutablely.
After the private banquet was over, Yun Tian and Zhao Haiqing got into the carriage together and drove towards the palace.
On the way, Zhao Haiqing's attitude was indifferent, not as attentive as before, just like a split personality.He always turned his head out of the window, as if it was too much for him to even glance at the sky.
Yun Tian became more and more sure that he was acting deliberately to show those people just now, but why did he do that?
"My lord, return this to you." Yun Tian took out the jade pendant that King Ning gave him just now, and handed it over.
He didn't want to please King Ning, but suddenly felt that taking King Ning's things was very boring.Since they are two irrelevant people, the less involvement the better, he is determined to find a chance to leave Prince Ning's mansion, there is no need to take advantage of King Ning.
King Ning still didn't look at him, but said indifferently: "Concubine Ai, take it, there is no reason to take back what this king gave away."
"Oh? I'm different from the prince. I can return the things I take back at any time." Seeing that he didn't want it, Yun Tian simply put the jade pendant into King Ning's hands, and said with a smile: "The prince is frowning, but is he feeling sorry for this? That's all. You gave me the jade pendant and I dare not sell it, let alone know how much it is worth, and there is nothing I can do if it is stolen by someone, so I should leave it to someone who understands its value."
This jade pendant is indeed a precious thing, otherwise Zhao Haiqing would not have hung it on his body.Yun Tian is not an idiot, he knows how to treat others softly.Seeing that he refused to accept it, Zhao Haiqing no longer refused, hung the jade pendant back on his waist, and said: "In this case, I will give you some money tomorrow, and if you come across something you like in the street, buy it Just come down."
"Oh, that's kind, I'd like to thank the lord first." Yun Tian grinned.
After the two returned home, Zhao Haiqing turned around and went to the study room. When Yun Tian returned to the dormitory, he saw Mingshu and Huiyu crying, and hurriedly asked, "What are you doing? Are you eating bad?"
"Princess, the prince didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
"No, he's very kind and even gave me something. What's wrong?"
"That's good, that's good..." Mingshu and Huiyu looked at each other with a reassuring smile, and said in a hurry: "Vice General Yan also came to ask about the situation of the princess!"
"Oh? Brother Yan took me out, there should be no problem, right?"
"This... the little ones don't know."
Yun Tian nodded, "I'll bring something over to thank him tomorrow." He suddenly remembered something, and said again: "By the way, Ming Shu, where did I put the dowry when I came? Is there a list?"
"Yes, princess, wait a moment."
Not long after, Ming Shu brought a scroll of brocade silk, Yun Tian unfolded it and found that his dowry was quite a lot.He planned to keep a few sets of clothes, a few necessities for appearance, and some gadgets that could be given away, and he planned to sell the rest in batches when he didn't need them.
He can't write or martial arts, and he doesn't have any skills, so he has to try to do business, but business can't be without capital.
As for these dowries... Although they are all treasures, if the treasures can't play their role, they are no different from waste products.
Yun Tian put away the brocade with peace of mind, turned off the light and lay down on the bed, and began to think about what kind of business he should do.
Just when he was exhausted and drowsy, there was a slight sound of opening the door, and then a figure came to the bed and asked in a low voice, "Are you asleep?"
Yun Tian vaguely replied: "Not yet, you work so late?"
Zhao Haiqing let out an "um" and lay down next to him.
Yuntian's body temperature is low, and it remains cool in the summer night.Zhao Haiqing approached Yuntian very naturally, holding his wife in his arms.
The young Princess Ning had already fallen asleep, and he breathed evenly and shallowly in Zhao Haiqing's arms.The two hugged each other in a very intimate gesture, but neither of them knew what was going on in the other's heart.
This is probably the so-called "same bed with different dreams".
He clasped his fists like a person in the world and said, "What's the name of the young man?"
"Duan Hongfang." The purple-clothed youth folded his arms, with a long sword between his elbows, "I won't ask for your name, but I just wonder if you've eaten enough?"
"So Duan Shaoxia was waiting for this table."
The corners of the purple-clothed boy's eyes twitched, and he said, "Of course, people in the capital like to go to restaurants to eat, so it's hard for me to find a place to drink."
Yun Tian really wanted to give up the table to this beautiful boy, but... "We still have one dim sum and two soups."
Duan Hongfang was dumbfounded: "Sir, you really have a good appetite!"
"It's so-so," Yun Tian signaled Ming Shu to move his position, "If Duan Shaoxia doesn't mind, come and eat with us. If you stare at my table, we are destined. I'll treat you to this meal."
Duan Hongfang wasn't a coy person at that time, and he was addicted to alcohol, so he couldn't wait for Yuntian to leave, so he graciously sat beside Yuntian.
There is also half a jar of Furong Xianjiu on the table, which is the most expensive wine in Jianghai Tower.Duan Hongfang picked up the wine jar and smelled it, but shook his head and said: "This wine is not strong enough."
"Young hero likes strong wine? It's not easy, Xiao Er, bring two jars of burning knives!" Yun Tian has read many martial arts novels, and knows that "burning knives" is a kind of alcohol with a high concentration, so he is very angry Shout out these three words.
Xiao Er said calmly: "I'm sorry, my lord, this shop doesn't sell burning knives. If you like spirits, you can try our Yipinxiang."
"Yipinxiang?" Duan Hongfang raised his eyebrows, "What is that? Young Master has never heard of it. Anyway, since there is no burning knife, let's come to Yipinxiang."
Duan Hongfang's drinking posture is very chic, raising his glass, raising his head, and draining the wine, he has a kind of boldness unique to martial arts people.Yun Tian thought he couldn't learn this kind of courage, so he stared at his long sword eagerly and asked, "Young Master Duan knows martial arts?"
"Yes, but I am best at medical skills."
"Ah? Are you a doctor?" Yun Tian was shocked.The quack doctors in his impression were old men with beards, but he had never heard of such a beautiful doctor.
"When did I tell you that I was a doctor?" Duan Hongfang looked at Yuntian displeasedly, and put his thumb on his chest, "Young master is the number one medical sage in the world, Daoist Danyi of Chifenggu... the apprentice!"
Yun Tian: "Pfft!"
Yan Si, Mingshu, Huiyu: "..."
Duan Hongfang rolled his eyes nonchalantly: "What are you laughing at? Do you think Daoist Dan Yi would accept anyone? If it wasn't for the young master's good qualifications, he wouldn't even take a look!"
Yun Tian was very helpless: "Didn't you say that doctors have a parental heart? To be a doctor, of course, the more apprentices the better, so that more effective resources can be injected into the society. Your master is quite strange."
Duan Hongfang shook his head: "Master heals illnesses, not for saving people, but for happiness."
Yun Tian can probably understand that the more skilled a person is, the more he likes to put on a show to show off his uniqueness.
After Duan Hongfang finished drinking, Yuntian and the others were also full, so Concubine Ning called Xiao Er and said, "Pay the bill."
Xiao Er smiled and said: "Guest officer, the total is 17 taels."
Yan Simian thought blankly: This store is quite expensive.
Yun Tian didn't move, Yan Si didn't move, Ming Shu and Huiyu didn't move, let alone Duan Hongfang, he was free food in the first place.
Xiaoer and Yuntian looked at each other for a while, and asked suspiciously: "Guest officer, who will settle this account?"
Yun Tian laughed dryly: "Wait a minute, aren't we discussing this?"
Xiao Er: "..."
Yun Tian turned to Yan Si, and said in a low voice, "Have you brought any money?"
Yan Si shook his head, when he went out with Zhao Haiqing, it was not his turn to pay.
Yuntian asked Mingshu Huiyu again: "What about you? Don't you take my money with you when you go out?"
Ming Shu said awkwardly: "Wang... the master has never given the young master silver taels."
Yun Tian went crazy: "Could it be that we didn't bring any money?!"
Yan Si: "...it seems, yes."
Seeing them muttering, Duan Hongfang was surprised and said, "What's the matter, everyone? You need to discuss the settlement?"
Yun Tian turned around calmly, and asked Xiao Er with a spring breeze on his face: "Can I pay on credit?"
"..." Xiaoer despised him silently in his heart, "Yes, I wonder which guest officer's account the young master will record?"
Yun Tian thought for a while and said, "Prince Ning's Mansion, Zhao Haiqing."
Xiao Er paused, and looked at Yun Tian in disbelief.
"This... Young Master, the prince's account can't be kept indiscriminately."
Yun Tian stamped his feet in embarrassment and impatience: "I didn't remember it randomly! I'm his old...I'm his younger brother!"
Only then did Xiao Er suspiciously run to ask the shopkeeper, and then returned: "Dare to ask the master's name?"
"My surname is Huang, Huang Yuntian."
Yun Tian thought to himself that Zhao Haiqing would not be so stupid that he couldn't even recognize his wife's alias, he shouldn't be angry, he just asked for a meal...
Duan Hongfang laughed loudly: "Young Master Huang has no money, you can just tell me, the young master can afford a meal." Then he took out his money bag and planned to pay the bill.
Yun Tian said angrily: "What are you talking about? I said I'm begging, so I'm begging! Yan Si, you go back to the house to get the silver taels..."
At this moment, a deep male voice came leisurely from the second floor.
"──Oh? I don't know what Mr. Huang is going to use to invite you?"
When Yun Tian first heard this voice, his whole body froze.
Yan Si also rarely showed a flustered expression, and quickly stood up from his seat.
Mingshu and Huiyu were so frightened that they were trembling, they had already lowered their heads and dared not look at the man who was coming down the stairs.

"Yes Yes……"
After Zhao Haiqing came to the front, Yun Tian greeted him with a sullen face: "... How is the prince eating upstairs?"
Zhao Haiqing clung to his ear, and said ambiguously and mockingly: "It's better than Aifei, at least you don't have to worry about not being able to pay the bill."
"..." Yun Tian became more and more embarrassed, "I, I will pay you back when I go back."
"What will I pay for my beloved concubine? Sell the dowry?" Zhao Haiqing shook his head, "Forget it, you are the wife of this king, how can this king care about such a small amount of money with you."
He seemed to caress Yuntian's hair casually, and said: "Yan Si, you take Mingshu Huiyu back to the mansion first, and then I will sit upstairs with this young master Huang."
Yan Si paused, and replied respectfully: "Yes."
Duan Hongfang had been watching them talking as an outsider, until Yuntian was brought up the stairs by Zhao Haiqing, he smiled and called out: "Young Master Huang, I owe you a drink, we will meet later!"
Yun Tian was already embarrassed to look at him again, and waved with his back to Duan Hongfang.
Zhao Haiqing smiled and said: "It seems that the king will send you a monthly report."
"There's no need for the monthly case... In fact, it's a good idea to sell the dowry. I'll look back and see what my father gave me."
"This king said casually, are you serious? Concubine Ning actually sold her dowry, do you want me to be the laughing stock of the world?"

The girl also stood up tenderly, bowed gracefully, and said: "Xinru from Yan's family, I have met Princess Ning."
Yan Xinru's voice was very pleasant, like a lark in the valley, Yun Tian knew that she was a woman from the Land of Fireworks after a little guessing, so he couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic: what a beautiful girl, she should have married a good family, but she ended up in this kind of place, what a pity.

He couldn't figure out why King Ning wanted to please him in front of his friends. In short, he would not be so stupid as to believe that King Ning did this out of sincerity.
"...Since the lord has the heart, I will not be polite." No matter what Zhao Haiqing thinks, Yuntian has always adhered to the principle of "don't take nothing, don't take it for nothing". Besides, he wants to give it, and no one forces him.
Yun Tian generously put away the jade pendant, and said with a smile, "Why are you all looking at me? Why don't you move your chopsticks?"
"Ahaha...the prince and the concubine are so affectionate, it is really enviable. I would like to respect you two!" The official with the mustache picked up the wine glass and drank it decisively. Don't pay back a cup of courtesy, but Zhao Haiqing shook his head slightly at him.
The other two men also toasted, and then Yan Xinru said in a soft voice: "The little girl is too strong to drink, so I will use the qin instead of wine to present a song "Xiyuehe" to the prince and princess. I wish you two forever." Get together and grow old together."
Although Yun Tian didn't take their blessings seriously, but Miss Yan is really a master at playing the piano.The melodious tones flowed like flowing water at her fingertips, coupled with her beautiful singing voice, it really felt like a kind of enjoyment.
After she sang, everyone was reminiscing about the beautiful voice, but they heard Yun Tian clapping her hands.
"Girl is so good at playing the piano! It's really that... lingering around the beam for three days, the lingering sound is endless!"
Yan Xinru pursed her lips and smiled: "The princess is overrated, the little girl only knows a little about piano skills."
"You count as 'slightly proficient' in this way, so what is considered 'proficient'?"
"Speaking of the No. 1 piano skills in Kyoto, it is naturally Miss Zhong Ling, the daughter of Prime Minister Zhong, who deserves this title."
Yan Xinru didn't know about the "love-hate entanglement" of these people, so she only said this factually.Zhong Ling has worshiped the qin sage as a teacher since she was a child, plus she is of noble birth, lively, and shows her skills whenever she has the opportunity to perform. Naturally, she is much more famous than other daughters raised in the boudoir.
Yan Xinru had no intention of speaking, but the others couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed after hearing it.
Zhong Ling was supposed to be Zhao Haiqing's wife, but now the princess is a man.Several people looked at King Ning anxiously, and found that there was no displeasure on his face, but looked at Yun Tian gently, so they were relieved.
Someone said: "Hahaha, no matter how beautiful Miss Zhong is, it's rare for us to hear it. Naturally, Miss Xinru is even better. Come on, let's play another song..."
The atmosphere at the banquet finally became more natural. Yun Tian glanced at Zhao Haiqing and found that he was holding a glass of wine in a trance, so he laughed softly: "Why, it's a pity?"
Zhao Haiqing looked back at him calmly, and said, "Does my concubine think this king should be a pity?"
Yun Tian scratched his neck with his palm, "If I were you, I would be so sad that I would not be able to eat or sleep well. I wish I could kill this male concubine who dared to block my happy love."
Yun Tian's words were meant as a joke, and he expected that Zhao Haiqing would not take it to heart.There are so many good women in the world, if he really likes them, who else would not marry based on his family background and appearance?Although she is his "lawful wife", she won't stop him from taking a concubine.
King Ning was noncommittal, and only looked at Yun Tian inscrutablely.
After the private banquet was over, Yun Tian and Zhao Haiqing got into the carriage together and drove towards the palace.
On the way, Zhao Haiqing's attitude was indifferent, not as attentive as before, just like a split personality.He always turned his head out of the window, as if it was too much for him to even glance at the sky.
Yun Tian became more and more sure that he was acting deliberately to show those people just now, but why did he do that?
"My lord, return this to you." Yun Tian took out the jade pendant that King Ning gave him just now, and handed it over.
He didn't want to please King Ning, but suddenly felt that taking King Ning's things was very boring.Since they are two irrelevant people, the less involvement the better, he is determined to find a chance to leave Prince Ning's mansion, there is no need to take advantage of King Ning.
King Ning still didn't look at him, but said indifferently: "Concubine Ai, take it, there is no reason to take back what this king gave away."
"Oh? I'm different from the prince. I can return the things I take back at any time." Seeing that he didn't want it, Yun Tian simply put the jade pendant into King Ning's hands, and said with a smile: "The prince is frowning, but is he feeling sorry for this? That's all. You gave me the jade pendant and I dare not sell it, let alone know how much it is worth, and there is nothing I can do if it is stolen by someone, so I should leave it to someone who understands its value."
This jade pendant is indeed a precious thing, otherwise Zhao Haiqing would not have hung it on his body.Yun Tian is not an idiot, he knows how to treat others softly.Seeing that he refused to accept it, Zhao Haiqing no longer refused, hung the jade pendant back on his waist, and said: "In this case, I will give you some money tomorrow, and if you come across something you like in the street, buy it Just come down."
"Oh, that's kind, I'd like to thank the lord first." Yun Tian grinned.
After the two returned home, Zhao Haiqing turned around and went to the study room. When Yun Tian returned to the dormitory, he saw Mingshu and Huiyu crying, and hurriedly asked, "What are you doing? Are you eating bad?"
"Princess, the prince didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
"No, he's very kind and even gave me something. What's wrong?"
"That's good, that's good..." Mingshu and Huiyu looked at each other with a reassuring smile, and said in a hurry: "Vice General Yan also came to ask about the situation of the princess!"
"Oh? Brother Yan took me out, there should be no problem, right?"
"This... the little ones don't know."
Yun Tian nodded, "I'll bring something over to thank him tomorrow." He suddenly remembered something, and said again: "By the way, Ming Shu, where did I put the dowry when I came? Is there a list?"
"Yes, princess, wait a moment."
Not long after, Ming Shu brought a scroll of brocade silk, Yun Tian unfolded it and found that his dowry was quite a lot.He planned to keep a few sets of clothes, a few necessities for appearance, and some gadgets that could be given away, and he planned to sell the rest in batches when he didn't need them.
He can't write or martial arts, and he doesn't have any skills, so he has to try to do business, but business can't be without capital.
As for these dowries... Although they are all treasures, if the treasures can't play their role, they are no different from waste products.
Yun Tian put away the brocade with peace of mind, turned off the light and lay down on the bed, and began to think about what kind of business he should do.
Just when he was exhausted and drowsy, there was a slight sound of opening the door, and then a figure came to the bed and asked in a low voice, "Are you asleep?"
Yun Tian vaguely replied: "Not yet, you work so late?"
Zhao Haiqing let out an "um" and lay down next to him.
Yuntian's body temperature is low, and it remains cool in the summer night.Zhao Haiqing approached Yuntian very naturally, holding his wife in his arms.
The young Princess Ning had already fallen asleep, and he breathed evenly and shallowly in Zhao Haiqing's arms.The two hugged each other in a very intimate gesture, but neither of them knew what was going on in the other's heart.
This is probably the so-called "same bed with different dreams".
