The first day of June.
The Prince Regent's Mansion was already full of people, and the Supervisor of Rituals arranged the palace in a joyous, grand and not extravagant manner.Most of the invited national officials were present, and the officials entertained the guests, but the birthday star himself never showed up.
Xu Jiashi looked at Pei Liangfang who was splinting himself in the back house: "He hurt you?"
Pei Liangfang clapped his hands, his voice hoarse: "No, I fell by myself when it was dark at night and I didn't see the road clearly."
"You can't even walk away from that place? You can break your leg on the flat ground, and the bruises on your neck are also broken?" Xu Jiashi frowned, "There are so many people in the palace today, I don't care about it. Fuck you, let the four guards of Tengxiang send you back to the palace, no matter how presumptuous he is, he will not dare to break into the palace—"
"It's not him! I said it wasn't him!" Pei Liangfang tightened his grip on the splint, and stared at Xu Jiashi fiercely, "He's still working as an imperial envoy in Jingguo, and he didn't come to Chenguo!"
Xu Jiashi looked at him for a long time and sighed, "Why bother?"
Pei Liangfang fixed his injured leg and applied medicine to his neck. His hands were shaking during the whole process. After a long time, he said to Xu Jiashi, "I won't go back to the palace. After today's birthday banquet, I will give birth to the little emperor. Find out The reliable imperial doctor will take care of his postpartum recuperation, and then help me act in a scene of escape from death."
today……
Today is Xu Jiashi's 30th birthday, but he is determined to send his child away.
Xu Jiashi closed his eyes: "Have you thought about it? Are you really going to hide your name from now on and give up your identity as the young master of Medicine King Valley?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Pei Liangfang returned what he heard last night to the other party.
"Okay. Then you rest here first, and I will send more capable people to guard you outside."
The relationship is sad, and the people in it cannot listen to persuasion.Moreover, Xu Jiashi's own mood was not much better, and Pei Liangfang couldn't be persuaded, so he could only let him rest in a secluded place in the back of the palace.
The 30th birthday is considered the most ups and downs of Xu Jia's life——
First, he was overjoyed to receive the gift carefully prepared by his beloved, and then he knew that he was going to be a father, so he couldn't take care of the joy, and rationally told him that he couldn't keep this child.After calming down in the middle of the night, he comforted himself that he had never expected an heir anyway, and he would stay with His Majesty for the rest of his life. Finally, he calmed down a bit, and the person sent to follow Li Zhen to investigate the mission reported that Yasukuni came here for a marriage.
What kind of marriage!
The Phoenix seal of Chen Guo is already in Xu Lian's hands, Princess Jingguo never wants to step into Chen Guo!
Before the banquet officially started, Xu Jiashi invited the six ministers to drink tea in the garden pavilion and tentatively mentioned the matter.
Sun Ying first expressed his objection. He justly said that His Majesty and the Emperor Yasukuni are cousins of the same generation, so how can you marry Princess Yasukuni and descend to the next generation?
In fact, other people can see through his thoughts: he is teaching Yong'an Wang to learn diplomacy at the emperor's order, and the past few days have been considered smooth, and he has already spotted that he wants Yong'an to be his grandson-in-law.
The emperor has no queen and no heirs, and King Yong'an is the best candidate for the crown prince.Even if the emperor chooses a woman from a commoner background like his mother, or a woman from an ordinary family background, as the queen, the status of King Yong'an will not be shaken.
But if she married Princess Yasukuni as the queen, the situation would be completely different.The bloodline of the royal marriage is bound to receive the support of Yasukuni and inherit the great line.The emperor is only 20 years old now. With a queen, is he still worried about not having a son?
At that time, with a son-in-law, there will be nothing wrong with King Yong'an.
The Ministry of Household Affairs and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry also believed that they should not marry Yasukuni.The reason is that His Majesty already has the blood of the Xie family, and if he gets closer and closer, Chen Guo will be half of the Xie family.The country has only been stable for two years, and the marriage of Princess Jingguo will inevitably cause chaos in the government. Perhaps Jingguo has the ambition to gradually annex the Chen Kingdom through this, so we must guard against it.
The Minister of the Ministry of War pretended to be stupid and did not express his opinion, only saying that everything was according to His Majesty's wishes, and if the princess looked like nothing, His Majesty would definitely not like it.
The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment glanced at Xue Huai, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Xue Huai coughed twice and cleared his throat: "I believe that Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven of a real dragon, and only a real phoenix can match him. Why don't you be strong and strong instead of letting someone with poor fortune sit on a vegetarian meal?" Joint? Marrying Princess Yasukuni is indeed risky, but it is better than letting common people and inferior people mix with royal blood."
Xu Jiashi said in a deep voice: "Master Xue's remarks allude to Empress Gaozong, what should be the crime?"
"The regent is careful! Empress Gaozong is beautiful and intelligent, and she is worthy of the mother of the country. Has the official ever disrespected the empress? Your highness..." Xue Huai sneered, his eyes were cold, "Empress Renzong's tablet It has not been moved into the Taimiao. What is the regent thinking about not rectifying the name of the royal family? I heard that a stone tablet was found in the river in the suburbs of Beijing a few days ago, and it was written—”
"The envoys of Jingguo and Daiqin are here!" At the Chuihua Gate, Sirui interrupted Xue Huai's words with a loud shout.
Xu Jiashi got up and walked to Xue Huai's seat: "Master Xue became drunk after just two sips of tea."
"Really?" Xue Huai sat firmly like a mountain, "Drunk people do drunk things. The regent thinks he is sober, and he acts domineeringly, covering the sky with his hands, but he doesn't know that there is a sky beyond the sky, and the only person above all people is his majesty. I'm afraid The drunk one is actually Your Highness."
Xu Jiashi sneered contemptuously, and stretched out his hand to crush the teacup in front of Xue Huai: "Is the king drunk? Today is the king's birthday banquet, and you should be drunk. But if Mr. Xue is drunk, I'm afraid I don't know how to return home decently—" ——Jiangzhou has just recovered from the flood, and the quality of the fired porcelain is worrying, Lord Xue forgive me. This king still needs to entertain envoys, Lord Xue is free to do so.”
The tea was dripping all over the body, and the broken porcelain was cracked at his feet. Xue Huai's face was gloomy like water. Seeing Xu Jiashi leave, he gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "I want to see how long you can be arrogant! Chen Guo, after all, you still don't Surnamed Xu!"
The rest of the Shangshu pretended to be deaf and dumb, as if they couldn't see that the two were in the same situation, and said in a friendly way: "The master's house is busy with guests, so let's not bother you, and sit on the table first... You can’t eat it more than a few times a year!”
-
Xu Jiashi had already met Li Zhen last night, and they were not on good terms.At this time, it was the first time to see Dai Qin's envoy Wu Yun Baoyin, colorful like a peacock with tender hair.
The peacock swaggered up to Xu Jiashi, and performed the etiquette of the Central Plains: "I have heard that the Regent of the Chen Kingdom is majestic and dignified. His Majesty Chen has the kindness of his father. Today, seeing him really convinced the little king."
Xu Jiashi couldn't understand his outlandish attire, and even a few broken Mandarin words didn't make sense to him.
Asian father?
Even though the barbarians learned the official language, they still couldn't speak the human language.
Not to mention that Xu Jiashi's seniority is lower than Yan Sui's, but in terms of age, can he be a sub-father if he is ten years older?What's more, Xu Jiashi was reluctant to give up the child in the emperor's womb, how could he hear the word "father"?At that time, he wanted to pluck the peacock and throw it out. In terms of diplomatic etiquette, he forcibly suppressed it with the self-cultivation of the regent.
Seeing that Xu Jiashi didn't answer, Wu Yunbaoyin smiled and said, "I heard that your majesty is taught by the regent king. After all, the regent king is much older, and he is more proficient in practicing bow and horse all the year round. If your majesty wants to improve in a short time, Perhaps Xiao Wang has a more suitable method to pass on."
If what I said before can be regarded as barbarians who do not understand the etiquette of the Central Plains, then these words are naked/naked alienation and provocation.
Xu Jiashi is thirty years old, which is a healthy and powerful age.Your Majesty said that his age is just for fun, and it is a verbal offense to say it from the mouth of this flower peacock.Hua Peacock smiled, his eyes were as fierce and cunning as a falcon.
But even if a peacock turns into an eagle, it is still a young eagle, no matter how ruthless it is, it is a bird that cannot make waves.
"Your Majesty will not bother His Majesty to help you with riding and shooting. I haven't asked you yet, how old is the prince this year?" Xu Jiashi approached with his hands behind his back.
Wu Yun Baoyin was puzzled, but still answered truthfully: "Xiao Wang is this year."
"Oh, it hasn't been crowned yet. No, there is no such thing as a weak crown on the grassland." Although Wu Yun Baoyin is tall, Xu Jiashi is still half a head taller than him. Xu Jiashi raised his hand and patted Wu Yun Baoyin's full knot. Braided head, "In the Central Plains, adults always lead minor children to banquets. The prince is so independent, I am really pleased."
Kid...kid?
Wuyun Baoyin couldn't hold back her smile no matter what.On the prairie, a man of his age had already hunted lions and bison countless times, and those who put their minds on women even gave birth to countless cubs.
How dare the damned Regent call him a child?
Xu Jiashi walked around him coldly, and raised his hand to order: "It's good to entertain the mission. Prepare cow and goat milk for the little prince. There is no need to boil it, add sugar and put it in a spoon. After all, His Royal Highness already has it."
Wu Yun Baoyin looked at Xu Jiashi's back, clenched his hands into fists, his Youyou pupils were flushed red.His subordinates looked at him inquiringly, but he hesitated and did not respond, when suddenly he heard a eunuch shout loudly: "Your Majesty is here!"
Wu Yun Baoyin stepped forward quickly, and when everyone knelt down to greet him, he pressed his right hand on his left chest, leaned over and said, "Xiao Wang thought that the monarchs and ministers in the Central Plains were orderly, but His Majesty is so caring and caring for his ministers, so he personally came to the banquet with his ministers. It turns out that the regent The birthday banquet is so grand, it is almost equivalent to the emperor's standard, it is to welcome His Majesty, Xiao Wang is an eye-opener today."
Xu Jiashi had already stepped forward to support Yan Sui's back who was getting off the sedan chair. After all, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yan Sui briefly shook his hand behind his back and then left.
Hearing Wu Yun Baoyin's words, Yan Sui felt that there was something wrong with the yin and yang, so he casually said "Yes", and then said: "Everyone is flat. Today is the Regent's birthday banquet. There are only hosts and guests regardless of official rank. Everyone sits and opens the table. Be sure to come home happy.”
Just say "huh"?
Couldn't the little emperor understand that what he said meant that the regent was usurping and deceiving the emperor?No, the little emperor is smart, he must understand!Wu Yun Baoyin thought, the little emperor has swallowed his anger to such an extent, under the heavy pressure, he must have strong resentment, he will definitely be deeply grateful to those who saved him from the regent's oppression.
Seeing that Yan Sui was in front and Xu Jiashi was half a step behind, Wu Yun Baoyin nodded with deep eyes when his subordinates pointed their eyes again, and whispered in grassland language: "According to the plan."
-
When the emperor arrived, the banquet officially began.
Naturally, Yan Sui took the upper seat, and Xu Jiashi took a seat not far to his right.Yan Zhi has been following Sun Ying recently, and he also went to the banquet today. At this time, he sat in the seat next to Xu Jiashi on Yan Sui's left.
The three of them sat in the upper seats, with food tables in front of each of them.A few steps away are the Yasukuni, Daiqin missions and Chen Guo civil and military officials, seated in two rows.
Yan Sui sat down and found Xu Jiashi's eyes searching the table, and asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone else not here?"
Naturally, the people who should arrive have not arrived yet, Xu Jiashi thought, as expected his father still blamed him for abandoning the Xu family, but at this moment, this regret is insignificant, and he is not a competent father.
Xu Jiashi is looking for Xie Yi.The fourth prince of Yasukuni mixed in the mission is an extremely unstable potential danger, which must be controlled as soon as possible.
In private, Xu Jiashi can't let him hurt Pei Liangfang, a friend; in public, the dignified prince of a country sneaked into our country without submitting his credentials, which is really provocative and tramples on the country's prestige.
But with a quick glance, Xu Jiashi didn't find anyone suspicious, he shook his head and said, "No, there are a lot of people and things to do today, your majesty will go back to the palace after sitting down for a while, and I will enter the palace to accompany your majesty later."
Yan Sui said: "At least until the banquet is over. If I leave early, others will suspect that we are not compatible."
"That's okay, the monarch and his ministers are so dedicated that some people can't sleep."
The two talked in a low voice in the high position, Yan Zhi only cared about eating and didn't look at them at all, and naturally others couldn't hear them if they were far away.
When the time came, Yan Sui started with a congratulatory speech, saying: "The Regent has dedicated himself to the Chen Kingdom, is loyal to the emperor and loves the country, I respect the Regent with a cup, and wish you a long life and good health."
Yan Sui raised his glass and drank it all, but found that the wine in the glass had been replaced with water. When he returned to his seat, he said in a low voice: "The regent is so stingy, he is reluctant to even invite me to drink."
Xu Jiashi's eyes always fell on Yan Sui's abdomen unconsciously, feeling disappointed, but he still forced a smile: "The minister's family is surrounded by walls, so I can only invite your majesty to drink water. It's too late for your majesty to dislike her now."
Yan Sui couldn't help laughing, but for some reason, he always felt that Xu Jia's smile was tired.Perhaps standing at thirty, the mood is very different.
After all parties celebrate their birthdays, singing and dancing will be performed, and all the food and wine will be served, and the guests will serve their meals with chopsticks.
Yan Sui didn't have much appetite at first, but seeing the fish on the table, thinking of the last time he and Xu Jiashi were fishing together, they gradually communicated with each other, so he was still willing to eat two bites.
Because of the lesson learned at Baofeng Temple last time, it was more stringent to test vegetables and poison for the emperor, even though today's banquet was managed by the ceremonial supervisor, he did not take it lightly.
To show the difference between the emperor and his ministers, the emperor and King Yong'an served steamed sea bass, while the ministers ate sweet and sour carp.Yan Zhi didn't like too bland taste, so he pestered Yan Sui to exchange for a plate of carp, Yan Sui told him not to mess around, all the ministers were watching.
The little fat man insisted on eating sweet and sour fish, so Xu Jiashi gave him his share from under the table: "Eat it, Your Highness, don't let others see it."
"Okay! Thank you, Regent!" The fat man smiled obsequiously, and pushed the perch over, "Regent, you eat perch. You can eat light food just like the emperor's uncle, and perch is also delicious!"
Xu Jiashi looked at Yan Zhi's pink and tender face, and couldn't help thinking, he and His Majesty's child are cousins of Yan Zhi, would they look alike?Your Majesty is so beautiful, and the baby he will give birth to will of course be a precious baby...
I can't think about it anymore, the more I think about it, the more I can't bear it.
The emperor didn’t need to put vegetables into the bowl by himself. The inner warden carefully picked the most plump and tender part of the fish belly, and poked his chopsticks over. Putting down his chopsticks, he knelt down and said to the emperor, "Look, Your Majesty!"
Yan Sui turned slightly to signal Shuangshun with his eyes, and Shuangshun stepped forward to take it, wiped it and handed it over, it turned out to be a small volume of silk scroll.
I don't know when the singing and dancing changed, everyone under the table noticed the movement of the superior, and cast their eyes one after another.
Shuangshun unfolded the silk script, Yan Sui fixed his eyes and saw four big characters from the oil stains——
Xu Kang continued;
Xu Jiashi changed his expression before Yan Sui, he picked up the plate of perch in front of him, and there was the same thing in the belly of the fish.
Kang was the former national name of the Xu family, and it is self-evident what Xu Kang will succeed again.
However, King Yong'an, who had changed the carp, didn't notice it, and he buried himself in the thorns and ate vigorously.
The people below didn't know what was written on the silk script, but the singing and dancing had already been suspended, so the drunken Minister of the Ministry of Justice spoke a little louder: "This carp is very fresh and delicious... It is indeed a dish in the Prince Regent's Mansion... I heard that a few days ago, Beijing A stone tablet engraved with an ominous curse was found in the suburban river... Such a delicious fish should not be caught in that river? Good luck..."
Yan Sui's heart was shocked when he heard the words. Half a month ago, it was rumored that a stone tablet was found in the river, but after Xu Jiashi personally investigated it, he told him that the ancestral grave of a certain unlucky family had been washed away.
In fact, the word "Xu Kang Zai Ji" is also on the stone tablet, right?
From the corner of Yan Sui's eyes, he saw Xu Jiashi frowned and hesitated to speak. He calmly slapped his hand away from under the table, took the silk book and held it in the palm of his hand, and said loudly to everyone: "Let's play music and continue singing and dancing. Today He Ling Xianrui , the auspicious omens written in the belly, I, Da Chen, will surely make the country prosperous and the people safe, and the country will last forever!"
When the voice fell to the ground, everyone was silent for a moment and raised their glasses and shouted "Long live Your Majesty" and "Long live Da Chen".
Sitting on the table, envoys Jingguo and Daiqin looked at each other silently.
Yan Sui sat for a while, and then said that he would go back to the palace to correct the memorial, and let all the ministers and workers continue to eat and drink, so that they can enjoy themselves without restraint.
Yan Sui got up, Xu Jiashi also left the table, and Wang Yanzhi of Yong'an was present at the highest position.
A minister drank too much wine, stood up staggeringly, and said: "His Royal Highness Wang Yong'an recently studied diplomatic etiquette with Mr. Sun. It can be regarded as a teacher-student friendship. Your Highness's contact with the mission group is quite a great demeanor of mine. Mr. Sun takes credit for it." Very great!"
Sun Ying stroked her beard and laughed loudly: "Your Highness is talented and understands by analogy, how dare I take credit for it?"
Yan Zhi's mouth was smeared with sweet and sour, and when he heard someone talking about him, he looked up, with a dazed expression on his face.
Amid the chatter and laughter, the Deputy Envoy of the Yasukuni Mission said to Li Zhen in a low voice: "My emperor's youngest princess is of the same generation and age as King Yong'an."
Just now, Yan Sui didn't get angry at the incident about the letter in the belly of the fish, and the people present all looked at him with admiration.Xindao, the little emperor's city mansion is quite deep and his wings are gradually growing. Although the Qianlong is not used right now, in time, the flying dragon will definitely be in the sky.For Emperor Jingguo, the honest and gluttonous King Yong'an was more suitable to be his son-in-law.
Li Zhen glanced quickly across the audience, shaking his head: "Speak carefully."
The drunken minister also sang with Sun Shangshu, and soon said that His Majesty is busy with government affairs, after all, he doesn't have much energy to personally teach Yong'an King, or he still needs to hire a full-time tutor for His Highness.
——As for the candidate for Tai Tuo... No one in the room is more diligent than Sun Ying stroking his beard with his back.
Yan Zhi didn't answer until he ate the fish until only the skeleton was left, wiped his mouth, touched the scissors on the table, got up and walked towards Sun Ying with his chubby belly: "If you want to recognize Mr. Sun as your master , do you want to offer a cup of apprentice tea?"
Old Shangshu Sun laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth but his eyes: "Your Highness has really broken the old minister, if you are lucky--"
Before she could finish speaking, she exclaimed, Sun Ying only felt a cold light flash in front of her eyes, and her jaw was chilly, and there was no long beard to touch, only short stubble that pricked her hand.
"Your Highness!" Seeing Yan Zhi with scissors in one hand and white beard raised in the other, Lao Shangshu almost fainted, this is a beautiful beard that has been raised for ten years!
"Don't worry, Master Sun." Yan Zhi turned to face the table, "Who has a fire bag?"
Everyone was stunned, the sky was bright and bright, whoever went to the banquet brought a fire bag.
Zhang Dian at the end of the banquet raised his hand: "Your servant." He sent it up quickly and thoughtfully.
Yan Zhi nodded, and lit his beard on the fire fold, and the residue fell into the teacup.He bowed slightly and handed it to the opposite side: "Master Sun, would you like some tea?"
Sun Ying didn't come up in one breath, and fainted.
"Hey, Mr. Sun doesn't understand the truth of turning the original soup into the original food. It seems that Mr. Sun and this king have no fate of mentor and apprentice." Yan Zhi curled his lips, threw the teacup, and turned to face Zhang Dian who was smiling. , "Why did you come to the Prince Regent's birthday banquet and bring a brochure?"
Zhang Dian calmly said: "I am an old gourmet. I heard that today there are high-quality beef and mutton from the grassland. The fishy meat must be grilled and eaten in time to taste delicious. Therefore, I carry a torch with me."
Yan Zhi nodded with satisfaction: "My lord is knowledgeable, would you like to be my king's master?"
Zhang Dian bowed: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your love!"
The other ministers came back to their senses at this time, and obstructed Zhang Dian on the grounds of his low official position. Yan Zhi heard it impatiently: "Where is it your turn to make irresponsible remarks! This king will go and tell the emperor himself!" After finishing speaking, he trotted Then he got into the backyard of the palace and went straight to the kitchen.
He said he was looking for His Majesty, but everyone knew that he was looking for something to eat.
Everyone looked at the chubby back and shook their heads. They are so stubborn and rude and have no ambitions.
However, neither the ministers nor Yan Zhi knew that Yan Sui had indeed gone to the kitchen before he left the palace and went back to the palace.Xu Jiashi screened away the idlers and followed them in, leaving Shuangshun and Sirui watching the door with big eyes staring at each other.
Shuangshun leaned against the door frame and couldn't hear what was said inside, feeling anxious like fried oil.Looking at Si Rui on the opposite side again, he was slightly surprised and soon calmed down.
It's over, His Majesty and his master and servant will suffer a lot today.Shuangshun thought secretly that His Majesty would definitely not be able to beat the Regent.By myself, I can probably fight with Si Rui for a few rounds, knock him down, and then rush in and hug the Regent's leg, so that His Majesty can hurry up and run...
Shuangshun was about to roll up his arms and sleeves, but he saw King Yong'an running towards him. As if seeing a savior, he grabbed it and threw it into the kitchen with all his strength: "Your Highness! Your Majesty is inside!"
"I knew Uncle Huang was also greedy, so he ran out to eat!" The stocky little fat man almost knocked open the kitchen door, and called Uncle Huang with a red face, "Leave it for me—"
In the kitchen, Yan Sui grabbed Xu Jiashi's shoulder just after finishing a lingering kiss, and whispered in his ear: "The only thing I have doubted about you in this life is that you like my brother and don't want me, nothing else. "
The little fat man's "Uncle Emperor" successfully made the scene still, and Shuangshun looked at the kitchen dumbfounded.Si Rui rolled his eyes, heh.
The author says:
three: Shuangshun, your younger brother, my brother sees too much with his eyes;
The zero-day update is restored!Thank you for your support!
The Prince Regent's Mansion was already full of people, and the Supervisor of Rituals arranged the palace in a joyous, grand and not extravagant manner.Most of the invited national officials were present, and the officials entertained the guests, but the birthday star himself never showed up.
Xu Jiashi looked at Pei Liangfang who was splinting himself in the back house: "He hurt you?"
Pei Liangfang clapped his hands, his voice hoarse: "No, I fell by myself when it was dark at night and I didn't see the road clearly."
"You can't even walk away from that place? You can break your leg on the flat ground, and the bruises on your neck are also broken?" Xu Jiashi frowned, "There are so many people in the palace today, I don't care about it. Fuck you, let the four guards of Tengxiang send you back to the palace, no matter how presumptuous he is, he will not dare to break into the palace—"
"It's not him! I said it wasn't him!" Pei Liangfang tightened his grip on the splint, and stared at Xu Jiashi fiercely, "He's still working as an imperial envoy in Jingguo, and he didn't come to Chenguo!"
Xu Jiashi looked at him for a long time and sighed, "Why bother?"
Pei Liangfang fixed his injured leg and applied medicine to his neck. His hands were shaking during the whole process. After a long time, he said to Xu Jiashi, "I won't go back to the palace. After today's birthday banquet, I will give birth to the little emperor. Find out The reliable imperial doctor will take care of his postpartum recuperation, and then help me act in a scene of escape from death."
today……
Today is Xu Jiashi's 30th birthday, but he is determined to send his child away.
Xu Jiashi closed his eyes: "Have you thought about it? Are you really going to hide your name from now on and give up your identity as the young master of Medicine King Valley?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Pei Liangfang returned what he heard last night to the other party.
"Okay. Then you rest here first, and I will send more capable people to guard you outside."
The relationship is sad, and the people in it cannot listen to persuasion.Moreover, Xu Jiashi's own mood was not much better, and Pei Liangfang couldn't be persuaded, so he could only let him rest in a secluded place in the back of the palace.
The 30th birthday is considered the most ups and downs of Xu Jia's life——
First, he was overjoyed to receive the gift carefully prepared by his beloved, and then he knew that he was going to be a father, so he couldn't take care of the joy, and rationally told him that he couldn't keep this child.After calming down in the middle of the night, he comforted himself that he had never expected an heir anyway, and he would stay with His Majesty for the rest of his life. Finally, he calmed down a bit, and the person sent to follow Li Zhen to investigate the mission reported that Yasukuni came here for a marriage.

This king still needs to entertain envoys, Lord Xue is free to do so.”
The tea was dripping all over the body, and the broken porcelain was cracked at his feet. Xue Huai's face was gloomy like water. Seeing Xu Jiashi leave, he gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "I want to see how long you can be arrogant! Chen Guo, after all, you still don't Surnamed Xu!"
The rest of the Shangshu pretended to be deaf and dumb, as if they couldn't see that the two were in the same situation, and said in a friendly way: "The master's house is busy with guests, so let's not bother you, and sit on the table first... You can’t eat it more than a few times a year!”
-
Xu Jiashi had already met Li Zhen last night, and they were not on good terms.At this time, it was the first time to see Dai Qin's envoy Wu Yun Baoyin, colorful like a peacock with tender hair.
The peacock swaggered up to Xu Jiashi, and performed the etiquette of the Central Plains: "I have heard that the Regent of the Chen Kingdom is majestic and dignified. His Majesty Chen has the kindness of his father. Today, seeing him really convinced the little king."
Xu Jiashi couldn't understand his outlandish attire, and even a few broken Mandarin words didn't make sense to him.
Asian father?
Even though the barbarians learned the official language, they still couldn't speak the human language.
Not to mention that Xu Jiashi's seniority is lower than Yan Sui's, but in terms of age, can he be a sub-father if he is ten years older?What's more, Xu Jiashi was reluctant to give up the child in the emperor's womb, how could he hear the word "father"?At that time, he wanted to pluck the peacock and throw it out. In terms of diplomatic etiquette, he forcibly suppressed it with the self-cultivation of the regent.
Seeing that Xu Jiashi didn't answer, Wu Yunbaoyin smiled and said, "I heard that your majesty is taught by the regent king. After all, the regent king is much older, and he is more proficient in practicing bow and horse all the year round. If your majesty wants to improve in a short time, Perhaps Xiao Wang has a more suitable method to pass on."
If what I said before can be regarded as barbarians who do not understand the etiquette of the Central Plains, then these words are naked/naked alienation and provocation.
Xu Jiashi is thirty years old, which is a healthy and powerful age.Your Majesty said that his age is just for fun, and it is a verbal offense to say it from the mouth of this flower peacock.Hua Peacock smiled, his eyes were as fierce and cunning as a falcon.
But even if a peacock turns into an eagle, it is still a young eagle, no matter how ruthless it is, it is a bird that cannot make waves.
"Your Majesty will not bother His Majesty to help you with riding and shooting. I haven't asked you yet, how old is the prince this year?" Xu Jiashi approached with his hands behind his back.
Wu Yun Baoyin was puzzled, but still answered truthfully: "Xiao Wang is this year."
"Oh, it hasn't been crowned yet. No, there is no such thing as a weak crown on the grassland." Although Wu Yun Baoyin is tall, Xu Jiashi is still half a head taller than him. Xu Jiashi raised his hand and patted Wu Yun Baoyin's full knot. Braided head, "In the Central Plains, adults always lead minor children to banquets. The prince is so independent, I am really pleased."
Kid...kid?
Wuyun Baoyin couldn't hold back her smile no matter what.On the prairie, a man of his age had already hunted lions and bison countless times, and those who put their minds on women even gave birth to countless cubs.
How dare the damned Regent call him a child?
Xu Jiashi walked around him coldly, and raised his hand to order: "It's good to entertain the mission. Prepare cow and goat milk for the little prince. There is no need to boil it, add sugar and put it in a spoon. After all, His Royal Highness already has it."
Wu Yun Baoyin looked at Xu Jiashi's back, clenched his hands into fists, his Youyou pupils were flushed red.His subordinates looked at him inquiringly, but he hesitated and did not respond, when suddenly he heard a eunuch shout loudly: "Your Majesty is here!"
Wu Yun Baoyin stepped forward quickly, and when everyone knelt down to greet him, he pressed his right hand on his left chest, leaned over and said, "Xiao Wang thought that the monarchs and ministers in the Central Plains were orderly, but His Majesty is so caring and caring for his ministers, so he personally came to the banquet with his ministers. It turns out that the regent The birthday banquet is so grand, it is almost equivalent to the emperor's standard, it is to welcome His Majesty, Xiao Wang is an eye-opener today."
Xu Jiashi had already stepped forward to support Yan Sui's back who was getting off the sedan chair. After all, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yan Sui briefly shook his hand behind his back and then left.
Hearing Wu Yun Baoyin's words, Yan Sui felt that there was something wrong with the yin and yang, so he casually said "Yes", and then said: "Everyone is flat. Today is the Regent's birthday banquet. There are only hosts and guests regardless of official rank. Everyone sits and opens the table. Be sure to come home happy.”
Just say "huh"?
Couldn't the little emperor understand that what he said meant that the regent was usurping and deceiving the emperor?No, the little emperor is smart, he must understand!Wu Yun Baoyin thought, the little emperor has swallowed his anger to such an extent, under the heavy pressure, he must have strong resentment, he will definitely be deeply grateful to those who saved him from the regent's oppression.
Seeing that Yan Sui was in front and Xu Jiashi was half a step behind, Wu Yun Baoyin nodded with deep eyes when his subordinates pointed their eyes again, and whispered in grassland language: "According to the plan."
-
When the emperor arrived, the banquet officially began.
Naturally, Yan Sui took the upper seat, and Xu Jiashi took a seat not far to his right.Yan Zhi has been following Sun Ying recently, and he also went to the banquet today. At this time, he sat in the seat next to Xu Jiashi on Yan Sui's left.
The three of them sat in the upper seats, with food tables in front of each of them.A few steps away are the Yasukuni, Daiqin missions and Chen Guo civil and military officials, seated in two rows.
Yan Sui sat down and found Xu Jiashi's eyes searching the table, and asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone else not here?"
Naturally, the people who should arrive have not arrived yet, Xu Jiashi thought, as expected his father still blamed him for abandoning the Xu family, but at this moment, this regret is insignificant, and he is not a competent father.
Xu Jiashi is looking for Xie Yi.The fourth prince of Yasukuni mixed in the mission is an extremely unstable potential danger, which must be controlled as soon as possible.
In private, Xu Jiashi can't let him hurt Pei Liangfang, a friend; in public, the dignified prince of a country sneaked into our country without submitting his credentials, which is really provocative and tramples on the country's prestige.
But with a quick glance, Xu Jiashi didn't find anyone suspicious, he shook his head and said, "No, there are a lot of people and things to do today, your majesty will go back to the palace after sitting down for a while, and I will enter the palace to accompany your majesty later."
Yan Sui said: "At least until the banquet is over. If I leave early, others will suspect that we are not compatible."
"That's okay, the monarch and his ministers are so dedicated that some people can't sleep."
The two talked in a low voice in the high position, Yan Zhi only cared about eating and didn't look at them at all, and naturally others couldn't hear them if they were far away.
When the time came, Yan Sui started with a congratulatory speech, saying: "The Regent has dedicated himself to the Chen Kingdom, is loyal to the emperor and loves the country, I respect the Regent with a cup, and wish you a long life and good health."
Yan Sui raised his glass and drank it all, but found that the wine in the glass had been replaced with water. When he returned to his seat, he said in a low voice: "The regent is so stingy, he is reluctant to even invite me to drink."
Xu Jiashi's eyes always fell on Yan Sui's abdomen unconsciously, feeling disappointed, but he still forced a smile: "The minister's family is surrounded by walls, so I can only invite your majesty to drink water. It's too late for your majesty to dislike her now."
Yan Sui couldn't help laughing, but for some reason, he always felt that Xu Jia's smile was tired.Perhaps standing at thirty, the mood is very different.
After all parties celebrate their birthdays, singing and dancing will be performed, and all the food and wine will be served, and the guests will serve their meals with chopsticks.
Yan Sui didn't have much appetite at first, but seeing the fish on the table, thinking of the last time he and Xu Jiashi were fishing together, they gradually communicated with each other, so he was still willing to eat two bites.
Because of the lesson learned at Baofeng Temple last time, it was more stringent to test vegetables and poison for the emperor, even though today's banquet was managed by the ceremonial supervisor, he did not take it lightly.
To show the difference between the emperor and his ministers, the emperor and King Yong'an served steamed sea bass, while the ministers ate sweet and sour carp.Yan Zhi didn't like too bland taste, so he pestered Yan Sui to exchange for a plate of carp, Yan Sui told him not to mess around, all the ministers were watching.
The little fat man insisted on eating sweet and sour fish, so Xu Jiashi gave him his share from under the table: "Eat it, Your Highness, don't let others see it."
"Okay! Thank you, Regent!" The fat man smiled obsequiously, and pushed the perch over, "Regent, you eat perch. You can eat light food just like the emperor's uncle, and perch is also delicious!"
Xu Jiashi looked at Yan Zhi's pink and tender face, and couldn't help thinking, he and His Majesty's child are cousins of Yan Zhi, would they look alike?Your Majesty is so beautiful, and the baby he will give birth to will of course be a precious baby...
I can't think about it anymore, the more I think about it, the more I can't bear it.
The emperor didn’t need to put vegetables into the bowl by himself. The inner warden carefully picked the most plump and tender part of the fish belly, and poked his chopsticks over. Putting down his chopsticks, he knelt down and said to the emperor, "Look, Your Majesty!"
Yan Sui turned slightly to signal Shuangshun with his eyes, and Shuangshun stepped forward to take it, wiped it and handed it over, it turned out to be a small volume of silk scroll.
I don't know when the singing and dancing changed, everyone under the table noticed the movement of the superior, and cast their eyes one after another.
Shuangshun unfolded the silk script, Yan Sui fixed his eyes and saw four big characters from the oil stains——
Xu Kang continued;
Xu Jiashi changed his expression before Yan Sui, he picked up the plate of perch in front of him, and there was the same thing in the belly of the fish.
Kang was the former national name of the Xu family, and it is self-evident what Xu Kang will succeed again.
However, King Yong'an, who had changed the carp, didn't notice it, and he buried himself in the thorns and ate vigorously.
The people below didn't know what was written on the silk script, but the singing and dancing had already been suspended, so the drunken Minister of the Ministry of Justice spoke a little louder: "This carp is very fresh and delicious... It is indeed a dish in the Prince Regent's Mansion... I heard that a few days ago, Beijing A stone tablet engraved with an ominous curse was found in the suburban river... Such a delicious fish should not be caught in that river? Good luck..."
Yan Sui's heart was shocked when he heard the words. Half a month ago, it was rumored that a stone tablet was found in the river, but after Xu Jiashi personally investigated it, he told him that the ancestral grave of a certain unlucky family had been washed away.
In fact, the word "Xu Kang Zai Ji" is also on the stone tablet, right?
From the corner of Yan Sui's eyes, he saw Xu Jiashi frowned and hesitated to speak. He calmly slapped his hand away from under the table, took the silk book and held it in the palm of his hand, and said loudly to everyone: "Let's play music and continue singing and dancing. Today He Ling Xianrui , the auspicious omens written in the belly, I, Da Chen, will surely make the country prosperous and the people safe, and the country will last forever!"
When the voice fell to the ground, everyone was silent for a moment and raised their glasses and shouted "Long live Your Majesty" and "Long live Da Chen".
Sitting on the table, envoys Jingguo and Daiqin looked at each other silently.
Yan Sui sat for a while, and then said that he would go back to the palace to correct the memorial, and let all the ministers and workers continue to eat and drink, so that they can enjoy themselves without restraint.
Yan Sui got up, Xu Jiashi also left the table, and Wang Yanzhi of Yong'an was present at the highest position.
A minister drank too much wine, stood up staggeringly, and said: "His Royal Highness Wang Yong'an recently studied diplomatic etiquette with Mr. Sun. It can be regarded as a teacher-student friendship. Your Highness's contact with the mission group is quite a great demeanor of mine. Mr. Sun takes credit for it." Very great!"
Sun Ying stroked her beard and laughed loudly: "Your Highness is talented and understands by analogy, how dare I take credit for it?"
Yan Zhi's mouth was smeared with sweet and sour, and when he heard someone talking about him, he looked up, with a dazed expression on his face.
Amid the chatter and laughter, the Deputy Envoy of the Yasukuni Mission said to Li Zhen in a low voice: "My emperor's youngest princess is of the same generation and age as King Yong'an."
Just now, Yan Sui didn't get angry at the incident about the letter in the belly of the fish, and the people present all looked at him with admiration.Xindao, the little emperor's city mansion is quite deep and his wings are gradually growing. Although the Qianlong is not used right now, in time, the flying dragon will definitely be in the sky.For Emperor Jingguo, the honest and gluttonous King Yong'an was more suitable to be his son-in-law.
Li Zhen glanced quickly across the audience, shaking his head: "Speak carefully."
The drunken minister also sang with Sun Shangshu, and soon said that His Majesty is busy with government affairs, after all, he doesn't have much energy to personally teach Yong'an King, or he still needs to hire a full-time tutor for His Highness.
——As for the candidate for Tai Tuo... No one in the room is more diligent than Sun Ying stroking his beard with his back.
Yan Zhi didn't answer until he ate the fish until only the skeleton was left, wiped his mouth, touched the scissors on the table, got up and walked towards Sun Ying with his chubby belly: "If you want to recognize Mr. Sun as your master , do you want to offer a cup of apprentice tea?"
Old Shangshu Sun laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth but his eyes: "Your Highness has really broken the old minister, if you are lucky--"
Before she could finish speaking, she exclaimed, Sun Ying only felt a cold light flash in front of her eyes, and her jaw was chilly, and there was no long beard to touch, only short stubble that pricked her hand.
"Your Highness!" Seeing Yan Zhi with scissors in one hand and white beard raised in the other, Lao Shangshu almost fainted, this is a beautiful beard that has been raised for ten years!
"Don't worry, Master Sun." Yan Zhi turned to face the table, "Who has a fire bag?"
Everyone was stunned, the sky was bright and bright, whoever went to the banquet brought a fire bag.
Zhang Dian at the end of the banquet raised his hand: "Your servant." He sent it up quickly and thoughtfully.
Yan Zhi nodded, and lit his beard on the fire fold, and the residue fell into the teacup.He bowed slightly and handed it to the opposite side: "Master Sun, would you like some tea?"
Sun Ying didn't come up in one breath, and fainted.
"Hey, Mr. Sun doesn't understand the truth of turning the original soup into the original food. It seems that Mr. Sun and this king have no fate of mentor and apprentice." Yan Zhi curled his lips, threw the teacup, and turned to face Zhang Dian who was smiling. , "Why did you come to the Prince Regent's birthday banquet and bring a brochure?"
Zhang Dian calmly said: "I am an old gourmet. I heard that today there are high-quality beef and mutton from the grassland. The fishy meat must be grilled and eaten in time to taste delicious. Therefore, I carry a torch with me."
Yan Zhi nodded with satisfaction: "My lord is knowledgeable, would you like to be my king's master?"
Zhang Dian bowed: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your love!"
The other ministers came back to their senses at this time, and obstructed Zhang Dian on the grounds of his low official position. Yan Zhi heard it impatiently: "Where is it your turn to make irresponsible remarks! This king will go and tell the emperor himself!" After finishing speaking, he trotted Then he got into the backyard of the palace and went straight to the kitchen.
He said he was looking for His Majesty, but everyone knew that he was looking for something to eat.
Everyone looked at the chubby back and shook their heads. They are so stubborn and rude and have no ambitions.
However, neither the ministers nor Yan Zhi knew that Yan Sui had indeed gone to the kitchen before he left the palace and went back to the palace.Xu Jiashi screened away the idlers and followed them in, leaving Shuangshun and Sirui watching the door with big eyes staring at each other.
Shuangshun leaned against the door frame and couldn't hear what was said inside, feeling anxious like fried oil.Looking at Si Rui on the opposite side again, he was slightly surprised and soon calmed down.
It's over, His Majesty and his master and servant will suffer a lot today.Shuangshun thought secretly that His Majesty would definitely not be able to beat the Regent.By myself, I can probably fight with Si Rui for a few rounds, knock him down, and then rush in and hug the Regent's leg, so that His Majesty can hurry up and run...
Shuangshun was about to roll up his arms and sleeves, but he saw King Yong'an running towards him. As if seeing a savior, he grabbed it and threw it into the kitchen with all his strength: "Your Highness! Your Majesty is inside!"
"I knew Uncle Huang was also greedy, so he ran out to eat!" The stocky little fat man almost knocked open the kitchen door, and called Uncle Huang with a red face, "Leave it for me—"
In the kitchen, Yan Sui grabbed Xu Jiashi's shoulder just after finishing a lingering kiss, and whispered in his ear: "The only thing I have doubted about you in this life is that you like my brother and don't want me, nothing else. "
The little fat man's "Uncle Emperor" successfully made the scene still, and Shuangshun looked at the kitchen dumbfounded.Si Rui rolled his eyes, heh.
The author says:
three: Shuangshun, your younger brother, my brother sees too much with his eyes;
