Consort Zhanzhao

Hearing the night cruise on the Qinhuai River, Zhao Bijia became a little bit interested, and ordered the maids to tidy up their things, wash up, etc. After nearly two hours of tossing, the sky gradually darkened. Zhao Bijia and the group of people accompanying her were well dressed It's the spirit, just wait for Fu Yin.

Not long after, Fu Yin came over, and Zhao Bijia was welcomed onto the cruise ship by carriages and sedan chairs.

In her previous life, Zhao Bijia barely saw the Qinhuai River at night, but it was the first time in two lifetimes that she took a night cruise on a boat.

Several people boarded the big boat decorated with colorful flowers. There are countless flower boats on the Qinhuai River. There are also various restaurants on both sides of the river, and the sound of silk and bamboo is endless.

Although it was not completely dark yet, the lanterns had been hung up, and it was very lively.

Bai Yutang tugged at the clothes on his body, he was dressed the same as before when he was a guard, that is, brocade clothes and jade robes, like a rich man.

Bai Yutang secretly glanced at Zhan Zhao standing beside Zhao Bijia, and the guards scattered on the boat in twos and threes, and sighed silently... Although there was no such thing as "using power for personal gain" at this time, Bai Yutang That's how I feel.

At the request of the princess, Zhan Zhao was the only bodyguard on the ship who was dressed as a standard fourth-rank bodyguard, with red clothes and black hats, and the Shangfang sword around his waist that ordinary people would want to offer up.

Although Zhao Bijia said very kindly that this is the land of Longxing, and with the governor accompanying him, nothing will happen, everyone should relax, but... why can't Zhan Zhao "relax"?

Of course, Zhao Bijia still has an explanation for this, "Zhan Huwei is very skilled in martial arts, so he has to be on guard by my side." After speaking, he looked at Zhan Zhao guiltily, "If someone comes here, I'm afraid they will take you If I become a target, Zhanwei will not blame me."

Zhan Zhao cupped his hands very righteously, "I will die for the princess."

At that time, Bai Yutang's eyes were staring straight, and he could only sigh at the end, he didn't really understand what's the meaning of your acting back and forth...

So in the end, it was Yang and An who dressed up as servants and waited on the princess, Zhan Zhao was dressed in a bright red bodyguard and stood by the princess's side, and the rest of them... just stay where they are cool.

Thinking of this, Bai Yutang felt a little sad, and gave up the best seat on the bow deck to this couple... Well, man and woman, they ran to the stern to enjoy the scenery.

Zhao Bijia glanced at Zhan Zhao who was standing beside her from the corner of her eye. He was tall, tall, handsome, and there was probably no one more desirable than him in this world.

The boat has left the dock and is in the middle of the Qinhuai River.

Looking around, the cruise ships everywhere were full of flowers. Yang and An poured tea for Zhao Bijia, and whispered in her ear: "This boat is not bigger than the boat under the princess's feet, and the princess's identity has never been revealed. The work is very good. Be careful."

This is to imply that she will mention a few words when Master Zeng comes. Zhao Bijia grew up in the palace, and these things are still clear. She nodded immediately and said: "I am still the confidant of the emperor, go back and write a letter." I have to mention a few more things."

But after saying this, Zhao Bijia suddenly thought of something, "Speaking of which, Lord Zeng is willing to clean up the palace...it must be the emperor's permission."

Zhao Bijia squinted at Yang and An, and before they could speak, Yang and An suddenly knelt down and snatched away Zhao Bijia's lines.

"Shao Yong doesn't know about the princess' itinerary. I told you that the princess will stay in Jinling City."

It was already mid-September, and even in the south of the Yangtze River, the wind blowing on the river was a bit cold at dusk, and besides, he only hurt himself, and it was because of himself.

"Get up quickly!"

Zhao Bijia scolded, "I just asked a few questions, why did you kneel down?"

Yang and An said: "I really don't dare to see the princess in danger again."

Zhao Bijia laughed out of anger, "What kind of danger is there in Jinling City? Besides, how can you be in danger when you go to Zhan Zhao's house?"

Zhan Zhao was still motionless by the side, and Yang He settled down for a while, obviously because of his stomachache, but just about to speak, he heard the voice of a young gentleman floating over from the cruise ship next to him.

"Where did the little lady come from to be so good-natured?" The visitor spoke frivolously, and his peach blossom eyes looked at Zhao Bijia and refused to let him go.

Zhao Bijia glared at him fiercely, and Yang and An grabbed the teacups in their hands and threw them over without saying a word.

After all, the distance is a bit far, and Yang and An's martial arts have only recovered five to sixty-six now. Although the teacup was thrown over, it was still close to the man's body and poured tea all over him, but that's all.

Yang and An were so angry that their faces changed a little, and they wished they could fly over and beat someone up.

The teacup fell on the ground with a crisp sound, but it didn't break. The young man bent down to pick up the teacup, touched it in his hand and said, "This is a green glaze carved cup from the Longquan kiln. My lady is too old." Too much waste."

Pooh!Not to mention the Longquan Kiln, I don't know how many tributes from the official kiln I have dropped since I was a child.

As soon as the words were finished, Zhan Zhao raised his hand, and the teacup in the young man's hand shattered, and even fell to pieces on the ground.

The young man glanced at Zhan Zhao, saw that he was wearing a fourth-rank bodyguard uniform, and his aura was a little weaker, but he still smiled at Zhao Bijia, "Xiaosheng's surname is Li, I don't know the girl's name?"

Zhao Bijia's mood at the moment is a bit complicated. Logically speaking, she should be angry if she was molested, but think about when she was wearing men's clothes earlier...

The first one is considered to be a peach blossom, but I didn't recognize her as a girl.

The second flower... It is bitter tears when you mention it.

This is the first rotten peach blossom that she expressed to her after wearing women's clothing. Zhao Bijia didn't know what to do.

While speaking, the young Mr. Li had already ordered people to turn the boat around, almost across the front of Zhao Bijia's boat. Everyone on board would have noticed when the boat slowed down. If so, use roar.

So from the stern, the cabin, and the small hall above, about twenty guards came in twos and threes, and of course there was Master Zeng who was sweating profusely.

Seeing this configuration, Mr. Li's expression changed, he cupped his hands at Mr. Zeng first, and said with a smile, "So it's Mr. Zeng's boat, no wonder it's attracting so much attention."

Mr. Zeng was sweating more and more on his head, and he gave Mr. Li a look, the guy who didn't wink!If the princess suspects his handwriting in today's outing, she won't be able to clean it up even if she jumps into the Yellow River.

"Since you are going to take the imperial examination, you don't pack your bags and prepare to go to Beijing, but how can you still have the time to play on the Qinhuai River?" Mr. Zeng is more than twice his age, and he pretends to be an elder to teach others, but he has a good appearance .

It's just that Mr. Li didn't take it seriously, maybe he was used to playing around with Master Zeng on weekdays, half joking and half serious, he said: "Your Excellency, my nephew will go to Beijing soon, and I'm afraid there won't be much chance to see this Qin Huai for many years from now on." The scenery on the river is gone, so this is the last time to take a look."

While talking, he still didn't forget to smile at Zhao Bijia, "It's because I came here that I saw such a beautiful girl——"

Before Zi Zi'er could speak, he was interrupted by Mrs. Zeng's hysterical cough, "Where did you learn to behave like a dude! If you continue like this, no one will be able to protect you!"

Mr. Li rolled his eyes. He is not stupid. From Mr. Zeng's reaction, we can see that Zhao Bijia's identity is not ordinary, but... Mr. Li smiled, gave Mr. Zeng his hands, and then smiled at Zhao Bijia, "Let me take my leave. If there is still a day to meet again, please let me know your name."

Talking about the boat under his feet, he gradually rowed out, Mr. Li turned around pretending to be chic, stroked his sleeves and left.

It's just... He didn't know whether he had slipped under his feet or stepped on the broken teacup when he turned around, and he staggered and fell to the ground.

Zhao Bijia didn't see anything, only Yang He An, who had excellent eyes, glanced at Zhan Zhao, and saw that his outstretched hand hadn't been fully retracted.

Mr. Zeng was so frightened that cold sweat came out of his head and body. If he went back and asked the princess to talk casually, let alone add fuel and vinegar, even if he told the truth, he would... be finished.

Maybe... the princess is still young, so she doesn't understand what's going on here?Mr. Zeng looked up carefully, although he didn't dare to look at the princess's face, but the princess was shaking all over, she was so angry!

Master Zeng trembled and almost knelt down.

"Go back to the palace!" Zhao Bijia suddenly called out, turned around and walked to the cabin, "Call me out when the boat docks!"

Master Zeng was so helpless that he could only sigh.

Zhao Bijia went to the cabin, and all the guards disappeared, Mr. Zeng stood alone on the bow, the cold wind was particularly miserable.

"You really killed me!"

It's just that Mr. Zeng never expected that Zhao Bijia was trembling all over, not from anger, but from excitement.

As soon as she got back to the cabin, she happily walked back and forth twice, "This is a reason to leave Jinling." Zhao Bijia also felt a little embarrassed, and glanced at Yang and An, "Go and find out who the surname is Li. What identity."

Yang and An glanced at Zhan Zhao who was still in the cabin, said yes and left.

After Yang and An left, Zhao Bijia walked up to Zhan Zhao, and smiled at him, thinking that every time he said he was going to his house, or asked him what was going on at home, Zhan Zhao would be Gu Zuoyan and he walked away, " Are you happy that I can go to your house now?"

It's just that Zhan Zhao's calm reaction made Zhao Bijia a little unhappy.

But it didn't take long for Zhan Zhao to react.

He stretched his hand into his arms, and the guard uniform that was tightly wrapped around his body was loosened by him. Zhao Bijia felt that if he grew taller, he might be able to see what he was wearing under the front.

It's just that I can't see anything now, and I'm not happy.

But thinking about it like this, Zhao Bijia still blushed, and then...she saw Zhan Zhao take out an object held in a handkerchief from his bosom, and opened it in front of her.

Regardless of what's inside, Zhao Bijia now just wants to know how the handkerchief from the girl's family got into his arms.

But the reality didn't allow her to think too much, because Zhan Zhao's next actions were like flowing water. Before Zhao Bijia could react at all, the bracelet wrapped in the handkerchief reached her wrist.

Zhao Bijia stared dumbfounded at the thing on his wrist, and then looked at Zhan Zhao's face, only to see him say something solemnly, "This is a jasper bracelet, which is very suitable for a princess."

Zhao Bijia only felt a bang, like countless fireworks exploding in her head. The gorgeous scenery and endless grotesques in her mind made her unable to respond for a while.

After a long time, Zhao Bijia found herself from the opposite face.

She first lowered her head to look at the bracelet, which had a strong sense of presence on her wrist, was a bit heavy, and hadn't been warmed by her body, and then looked at the previous owner of the bracelet, flirting with this serious expression every time Her show.

Zhao Bijia felt that she had to follow along.

Okay, let's not worry about where the handkerchief came from, it's not important anymore, and then... how did Zhan Zhao put the bracelet on her hand when she didn't notice it?

And she seemed to be in a daze at the moment when his hand was grabbed by him, she didn't hold back at all, just got caught like that?

Wait a minute, these don't seem to be too important, Zhao Bijia shook his head, and the four characters of "Love token" flashed all over his head.

But counting since she and Zhan Zhao got acquainted, what have the two of them exchanged?

She followed Zhan Zhao's Juque sword and exchanged it for a Shangfang sword.

And then...she subconsciously touched the purse at her waist, which contained the Yingyu she took from Zhan Zhao in the cave, and never returned it to him.

Finally, there is the jasper bracelet on the wrist.

After counting this, Zhao Bijia was terrified for a moment, how could this happen!

She is a princess with two titles on her head. She has her own fief palace. The residence in the palace is the best except for the queen mother, father emperor, and mother concubine. Her annual income can also be ranked among the top five. of!

Zhao Bijia originally thought that she was acting like a domineering princess, but now that she thinks about it, she never gave Zhan Zhao anything!

Zhao Bijia suddenly raised her head and muttered, "I have to give you back..."

She was very disappointed for a while, as to whether it was because of the collapse of the character set or because she forgot that returning gifts is also a good excuse to communicate, it is not known.

Hearing her words, Zhan Zhao said very solemnly and seriously, "Princess... gave me sour plum soup."

With a short and urgent breath, Zhao Bijia felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat!

That's it, that's the expression, every time he said something that would be misunderstood by anyone with such a serious expression, while making Zhao Bijia think that he was thinking too much, but at the same time he couldn't help but continue to think.

Zhao Bijia blushed, "I'll drink it for you next summer."

With Zhan Zhao saying yes, Zhao Bijia felt that she could start a fire now, but before she could figure out how to reply, Yang and An came back.

As soon as he came back, he kept scanning Zhan Zhao with suspicious eyes.

After all, there is only one man and one woman in the room, one is red-faced, dare not even raise his eyes, and the other is serious, it is just this expression if he is standing guard.

You can tell there is a problem at a glance.

Zhao Bijia wanted to fan the wind with her hands to cool down the temperature on her face, and also lighten the color on her face. That's right, she knew that her face was extremely red without looking at her.

But she still held back, she told herself silently in her heart, if she doesn't care, just pretend it doesn't exist.

After reading it silently twice, I don't know whether it worked or failed. Looking for a topic to divert this matter, Zhao Bijia asked: "Can you find out clearly?"

Yang Hean nodded, "It's a relative of Princess Wanshou's son-in-law's family. It is said that she looks very similar to the son-in-law. The princess likes it very much."

Zhao Bijia snorted, no wonder this man is so arrogant, he can laugh non-stop even in front of Fu Yin.

But Zhan Zhao probably didn't know who he was, and Zhao Bijia felt that talking to him about such a serious topic that had nothing to do with him might ease the atmosphere.

"Princess Wanshou is my father's aunt, the daughter of Emperor Taizong, who lives in Bianliang. My father respects her very much. In the early years, she married a son-in-law named Li. Later, the son-in-law committed a crime and was dismissed from office. , although he did not fall to the point where he and the princess separated, but he was not allowed to see the princess often, and within a few years, the son-in-law died."

Zhan Zhao gave a serious hum, and added a comment, "No vigilance, just an ordinary person."

Zhao Bijia subconsciously glanced at Yang and An, and suddenly remembered the broken cup in his hand, and the very suspicious fall on the ground at the end... Is Zhan Zhao jealous?

There's no reason to be jealous!

How can that little boy compare with him?It's just that Zhao Bijia suddenly felt a little guilty. She remembered that when Mr. Li spoke to him, she was addicted to the sequelae of disguised as a man, and she didn't respond for a long time. Could it be because of this that Zhan Zhao couldn't help but feel comfortable?

The feeling in Zhao Bijia's heart is indescribable.

She raised her hand and dangled the jade bracelet in her hand, and a short piece of wrist as beautiful as suet white jade, in front of Zhan Zhao, "I like it very much."

And a rotten peach blossom like Mr. Li, don't be afraid to have a dozen!Maybe a few more, maybe she can make a bed in advance or something?

While Zhao Bijia was excited, she didn't forget to look at Zhan Zhao. He turned around very stiffly, and said, "I'll see if the boat is docked." Then he went out.

Zhao Bijia smiled so much that her eyes narrowed, and she glanced at Yang He'an, "Pack up your things when you get back, and tell Fu Yin tomorrow that we will come back after people leave."

She was full of ambition and made a plan. When she remembered that this person said that she would go to Beijing to prepare for the imperial examination next year, she thought for a while and said, "It's only September now. With his family background, he must go to Bianliang for a month at most. The imperial examination will not be until next spring. There is still half a year to go, and I am not delaying other people's future."

Yang and An couldn't help but twitched their brows when they heard her long series of foreshadowing.

"You go and beat him up." Zhao Bijia whispered, "Don't hit him too hard, after all, it's a little bit of a relationship, just don't make my aunt sad." Zhao Bijia thought about the distance from here to Changzhou, "Just keep him from going to Beijing for half a month."

Yang and An agreed with all the proposals made by the princess. They turned around and wanted to go out, but Zhao Bijia stopped them again, "Don't slap your face."

Yang He'an became more serious, and said: "On the Qinhuai River, it's enough to pretend to be jealous, and it won't arouse suspicion."

Only then did Zhao Bijia feel relieved to call someone out.

It was just dark when Zhao Bijia and others boarded the boat. For the nightlife on the Qinhuai River, this time was still the opening show. The river is full of cruise ships, large and small, and it is not so easy to turn around and go back.

There are also some families who don't even row their boats at all. They just float slowly along the river. Although there are boatmen, they only row one or two boats when they are too close to other boats. pulp.

So when Yang and An came back after dealing with Mr. Li, the boat hadn't gone far.

Yang and An jumped onto the boat, and were caught by Bai Yutang who was wandering around the boat bored.

"Your martial arts are so advanced." Bai Yutang looked him up and down, and said suspiciously: "Zhan Zhao said that you pricked the acupuncture points with silver needles. It's only been half a month, so it's almost healed?"

Yang He'an was expressionless, and said lightly: "I am very talented."

Bai Yutang almost spit out the tea he just drank, do you, an eunuch, know where your talents are used?

Yang and An didn't look very kindly at him either, you know what talent is like when you're just a chicken?

The two silently hurt a round at the same time, and turned to leave at the same time.

Bai Yutang looked at Yang and An's backs, and said to himself: "The effect of silver needle acupuncture is so good? I want to try it, sir."

After finishing speaking, he sighed again, "I don't know what panacea he took to heal so quickly. If I come here again, I wonder if the princess can let me see something good for Zhan Zhao's sake. "

Yang and An who left didn't know what they thought of, and their footsteps paused for a while, but then they became more determined.

Early the next morning, Zhao Bijia sent Yang and An out to dismiss Mr. Zeng, and then went all the way to Changzhou in a carriage.

Although Shao Yong disapproved, there was nothing to object to when this happened.Although he understood that the princess was just making use of the topic, but based on the news he heard that night, the Li family boy was indeed not a fun thing. He sighed that the princess was wronged by going out alone, and at the same time thought about leaving.

However, he became more and more vigilant in his actions, not daring to tell the princess to disappear under their noses.

Jinling City is about two hundred miles away from Changzhou. They set out in the morning and arrived in Changzhou just as the smoke was rising, and the air seemed to be filled with the aroma of food.

Zhao Bijia, who had been sitting in the car all day, was very happy. Of course, this happiness came from the dinner that he would eat every day, or from the fact that he was going to Zhan Zhao’s house for dinner. the ones.

Although Zhan Zhao's native place is Yujie Village, Wujin County, Changzhou Prefecture, but this is his ancestral home, and his family has moved to live in the town a long time ago, and the family lives together, occupying a large house.

Zhao Bijia thought for a while, and strongly urged Shao Yong to take the rest of the guards to live in the inn in the town, otherwise this... thinks it's not quite right, what do you call the second elder of the Zhan family?

The youngest son, who has joined the public school and has a bright future, went home to visit his relatives. He not only brought a lively, lovely, innocent and kind female ticket, but also brought more than [-] colleagues...

Parents should wonder if their son has encountered workplace violence.

Just when Zhao Bijia was shy about the long series of adjectives that came up in his mind unintentionally to describe himself, Zhan Zhao had already stepped forward and knocked on the heavy brass door knocker.

The door made a heavy creaking sound, and a janitor in his fifties came out from the inside. He was stunned when he saw Zhan Zhao, and then his expressionless face turned into ecstasy, and he turned around and shouted. With a voice, "The young master is back!"

Zhao Bijia burst into laughter.

little master?

This cute and mischievous title matches well with the calm and down-to-earth Zhan Daxia. Could this be the reason why he doesn't want to come by himself?

Zhan Zhao didn't look back, making Zhao Bijia a little disappointed to see what kind of expression he had on his face.

Bai Yutang next to him already laughed, and stepped forward to say hello, "Old Zhan, I'm here too."

The servant's face suddenly changed, and he turned around and said: "The young master of the Bai family is here too!"

Zhao Bijia smiled more and more happily.
