Chapter 635 Childhood sweetheart
He Zhaojun didn’t expect that Lou Yao would dare to talk to her like this, without even the slightest intention of giving in. She couldn’t save her face and felt ashamed in her heart, so she said incoherently, “Okay, if you cancel the engagement, then cancel the engagement.” , I will marry that Prince Xiao as I wish. He has never been as angry with me as you are. He is considerate and a thousand times, a hundred times better than you. Let me tell you, when I get married in the future, I will go to Feng Zhen County with him. He and I traveled around the mountains and rivers every day, and he even built a villa in the middle of Sichuan and said he would give it to me! We didn't know how happy we were at the time, and we wouldn't even be able to see each other again." Lou Yao listened
. What He Zhaojun said was that he and Xiao Shizi had already thought about how they would live in the future. It must be that he had not wanted to marry him for a long time. When he heard this, his anger welled up, and he said angrily, "No. Just disappear!"
He Zhaojun became even more angry when he saw that Lou Yao still refused to give in at this point. You know, in the past, it was Lou Yao who was the one looking for compromise. Who would have thought that this time he would not give in even half a cent.
At this moment, He Zhaojun compared the gentle and carefree Xiao Shizi with Lou Yao, who was always angry with her, and felt more and more happy when he was with Xiao Shizi.
But in He Zhaojun's heart, she still hoped that Lou Yao would be like Xiao Shizi, but looking at Lou Yao's unwillingness to give in, she knew it was impossible.
He Zhaojun was very puzzled and didn't want to waste time. She turned around and was about to leave. But when she turned around, she saw Cheng Shaoshang and Wang Yue.
Yes, there were only Cheng Shaoshang and Wang Yue. As for Yuan Shen, when the argument between the two was the most intense, he hid behind the pillars. Only Wang Yue and Cheng Shaoshang looked at the two of them dumbfounded.
Wang Yue could tell that He Zhaojun liked Lou Yao, but the couple had a wrong way of getting along with each other. She had a bad temper and easily offended others, and Lou Yao loved preaching and refused to coax her. When she happened to meet the sweet-talking Xiao Shizi, she instantly fell in love with him. My heart is moved.
In addition, Lou Yao said angrily just now that if it weren't for the engagement, he might not be willing to be with her. He Zhaojun couldn't accept it for a while, but he felt that Xiao Shizi was good. It's just that at this time, Lou Yao plays a bigger role in He Zhaojun's heart. After all, the two are childhood sweethearts, and they can't be separated at once.
He Zhaojun turned around angrily and happened to see Cheng Shaoshang and Wang Yue. She was angry and had nowhere to get angry, so she ignored Wang Yue and Cheng Shaoshang and said, "What are you looking at? Look at me digging again." You idiots!"
Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth. He originally wanted to remind He Zhaojun not to be deceived, but looking at her fierce look, he thought it was better to suffer the loss. Anyway, it was not him in the end. Take over.
In addition, Wang Yue felt that if General He and King Yong wanted to marry, they would have to get Emperor Wen's nod. After all, General He was a die-hard loyalist of Emperor Wen.
If Emperor Wen agreed to the marriage between the two families, there shouldn't be any trouble. There is a high probability that he would have prepared a knife and was ready to attack King Yong.
And King Yong was also one of the larger teams that rescued Gucheng back then. The brand name King Yong was still there, so it was difficult for Wang Yue to investigate, but what if King Yong died?
Not to mention Wang Yue's thoughts, Lou Yao heard He Zhaojun's roar and quickly looked back, only to see Wang Yue and Cheng Shaoshang. He was always observant of etiquette, so he quickly bowed to Wang Yue and Cheng Shaoshang, and then said with a sneer, "Brother of the Wang family, Madam Cheng, I really can't bear Zhaojun's temper." Wang said with a smile
. Yue originally wanted to pretend that he hadn't seen it, but when he heard that this boy Lou Yao suddenly called out Cheng Shaoshang's identity, he immediately understood that Lou Yao might also have feelings for Cheng Shaoshang. I have a good impression, or in other words, I also pay attention to Cheng Shaoshang.
This makes Wang Yue a little depressed. Is love in this era so unrestrained?
Although the gentle lady is very jealous, she can't see someone pursuing her and just force her way in, right?
But Wang Yue looked at Yuan Shen under the pillars not far away, and Ling Buyi who was watching from the high platform opposite. Wang Yue suddenly became less sure. Could it be that the atmosphere of this era was more open, and women were fighting for it until the end? What you get is your own?
However, thinking that Cheng Shaoshang's mother also got together with Cheng Shi after she was divorced, Wang Yue suddenly felt that maybe this was really the case.
However, Wang Yue thought about this era again, which seemed to reflect the early Eastern Han Dynasty. Wang Yue unconsciously thought of the wife Boss Cao more than a hundred years later, and also let him know that what he might grab might not necessarily It's your own.
In this case, Wang Yue did not want to be robbed by Xiao Louyao when he was guarding Ling Buyi and Yuan Shen. Comparatively, if Lou Yao took the opportunity to get rid of the engagement, but he hadn't gone to the Cheng family to propose marriage, maybe the two of them would be married?
You should know that although Wang Yue and Cheng Shi had a tacit understanding, Cheng Shaoshang was still in a state of marriage in theory. If the Lou family proposed marriage, the Cheng family might not refuse.
Thinking of this, Wang Yue thought it would be better to eliminate future troubles, so he waved to Lou Yao and said in a very amiable manner, "Ah Yao, come here, I have something to say."
Lou Yao was very well-behaved and didn't have so many children. In his mind, thinking that Wang Yue and his eldest brother were familiar with each other, he regarded Wang Yue as his elder brother. He quickly stepped forward and walked a few steps to the corridor.
As soon as he walked into the corridor, he happened to see Yuan Shen. This Yuan Shen was a famous figure in the academy where he studied. He admired his talent and learning very much. He quickly thought about Yuan Shen and gave him a salute and said respectfully, "It turns out that Yuan Shen Young Master is here too!"
Yuan Shen rolled his eyes at Wang Yue. He originally wanted to keep it a secret, but he didn't expect Wang Yue to take the initiative to call Lou Yao. He felt that Wang Yue must have done it on purpose, but he didn't know what kind of medicine Wang Yue was selling in his gourd. He waved and said, "My matter is not urgent. Go and see what your brother Wang said first."
Lou Yao nodded after hearing what Yuan Shen said, and walked obediently not far from Wang Yue. , said politely, "Brother Wang, I don't know why you called me here." Wang Yue
has gone through so many worlds, from the salted fish who used to lie flat and endure the calm for a while, he slowly turned into a person like Ye Zhenzhen said Like that, if you show kindness to me, I will return kindness to you. If you provoke me, I will make you uneasy.
Wang Yue originally wanted to trick Lou Yao, but seeing how well-behaved Lou Yao was, he, a thick-skinned person, didn't want to be too cruel to Lou Yao.
After all, Lou Yao really didn't show any hostility at all. Maybe he asked Cheng Shaoshang because he wanted to know who the people around him were, but Wang Yue subconsciously thought of it in a conspiracy, which shows how impure people can be.
Wang Yue thought about it and felt that in this case, it was better for him to get along with his little childhood sweetheart. If Lou Yao did not cancel the engagement, there would be nothing else.
Thinking of this, Wang Yue met Lou Yao's curious eyes and said with a smile, "Are you really planning to cancel the engagement with He Zhaojun?"
Lou Yao probably guessed that Wang Yue would mention this, but he didn't expect it to be true. He didn't know that Wang Yue would mention this. When Yue asked why, he suppressed the grievance in his heart and said, "She has often had trysts with Prince Xiao in the past few days. She obviously feels that Prince Xiao can please her more than me. Moreover, Prince Xiao is also planning to come to propose marriage. Why can't I be as beautiful as a man?"
Seeing Lou Yao's aggrieved look like a child, Wang Yue couldn't bear it even more. He quickly waved his hand and kindly reminded, "You are wrong. You know that Feng Zhenjun, the fiefdom of Xiao Shizi's father, Prince Yong, is here." Where?"
Lou Yao is also well-read. Although he is not as knowledgeable as his brother, he is also very knowledgeable. What's more, he has also seen his brother's map of the territory. Without hesitation, he immediately said, "King Yong. The fiefdom of Yongguo is in Feng Yu County, adjacent to Shu, and belongs to the land of Sanfu. Zhaojun just said that Xiao Shizi bought a house in Shu and planned to give it to her." Wang Yue was not surprised that
Lou Yao knew this, so he He continued, "Then do you know where General He is stationed?"
Lou Yao has been dancing with General He since he was a child. Of course he knew where General He was stationed, so he immediately said, "It's in Feng Yu County!" Wang Yue looked at
Lou Yao understood, nodded, and said with a smile, "That's right, General He is loyal to His Majesty. He is stationed in Feng Zhen just to monitor King Yong, and King Yong's Xiao Shizi has so many famous ladies. No, you suddenly fell in love with the unruly and willful He Zhaojun out of nowhere, don't you think this is Xiao Shizi's special hobby?"
Lou Yao was not a fool, and he immediately understood that it was very possible for the Yong Wang to win over General He through marriage. He Zhaojun was just being used if he had evil intentions, or wanted to do something private, or wanted General He to show his favor.
Thinking of this, Lou Yao couldn't sit still and said excitedly, "I will write a letter to Uncle He and remind him to pay attention to this matter."
Wang Yue rolled his eyes at Lou Yao. Compared with his brother, this kid is really bad. Too far, he quickly stopped and said, "Is it useful what you said? What if it happens a few years or decades later? I am just saying this to remind you that Xiao Shizi is not sincere to He Zhaojun, and you are so indulgent. The little Qingmei who went to Feng Yu County may have really harmed her."
Lou Yao knew that Wang Yue was right and knew Wang Yue's ability. Since Wang Yue said so, there must be a way, so he quickly asked respectfully, "Brother Wang, you and my brother are friends. Please show me a way. What should I do? I listen to you."
Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth. He really couldn't be cruel to someone who trusted him so much. , it is better to trick the child into trying to win back He Zhaojun. After all, he has been getting along with He Zhaojun for so many years and has long been used to it.
Now seeing that Lou Yao wanted to hear his opinion, Wang Yue said confidently, "You are still young and are not in a hurry to get married. Since you don't have the girl you like, why not leave a letter and go to your relatives, and you will grow up together." Knowledge, secondly, can hold He Zhaojun back. After all, without your nod, your uncle probably wouldn't be able to break off the engagement, unless there are interests that interest him. But in that case, King Yong may not necessarily be willing to pay. As long as you don't break off the engagement. , Xiao Shizi will not be able to marry He Zhaojun."
After hearing this, Lou Yao felt that it made sense. He felt that doing so was to save He Zhaojun. For a moment, his sense of justice was overwhelming, he held his chest high, nodded and said, "Brother said that Yes, I will take my servants with me when I get back and go to join my clan. But, what does the little green plum my brother mean?" Wang Yue was stunned
for a moment, and suddenly thought that Li Bai's Changganxing had not yet come out. He rolled his eyes and said, He was about to copy it, just enough to increase his reputation. He coughed lightly and said as if reminiscing, "This is an emotional story about a young couple I met who grew up together on my way to the expedition. I wrote it myself." A sentence from a poem."
Lou Yao did not expect that Wang Yue was not only extraordinary in martial arts, but could also write poems, and the story he wrote was about a young couple who grew up together. He happened to be the age of the young Mu Ai, so of course he was very interested, and for a while He was not in a hurry to leave, so he quickly said, "Brother, please listen to Yu Ayao. Maybe you will get some inspiration."
Wang Yue had already prepared and waited for Lou Yao to ask. As soon as Lou Yao opened his mouth, he could not delay and immediately said, "My hair is spreading over my forehead, and there is a show in front of the door. The man comes riding a bamboo horse and goes around the bed." Playing with green plums. Living together in Changqian, the childhood sweethearts guessed that fourteen was a gentleman's wife... We met each other not far away until the wind and sand. When
Lou Yao listened to this poem, he also thought of the past between him and He Zhaojun. When she was a child He doesn't have such a domineering personality. Although he is a bit unruly and willful, he is okay with his future husband-in-law, and the two of them are very happy together. When he was a child, Zhaojun also imagined the future life of the two of them as mentioned in this poem
. , but I don’t know when He Zhaojun became more and more domineering, and he was always calling him here and there. He could tolerate all this, but later, when the reputation of the four major princes in Kyoto became great, she always I want him to be as capable as Yuan Shen in literature, as capable as Wang Yue in martial arts, as heroic and handsome as Ling Buyi, and as knowledgeable as his second brother. This is simply embarrassing! Who can do this for a normal person? Because of this, he became more and more impatient.
Lou Yao was greatly inspired by Wang Yue's poem. He suddenly felt that Zhaojun actually had a certain responsibility for becoming what he was now. If he had decisively followed He Zhaojun to Feng Zhen County and practiced martial arts with Uncle He, he might have been an outstanding young general, which would be better than being incompetent in martial arts now. Thinking of this, Lou Yao bowed and bowed
. Wang Yue said sincerely, "Listening to my brother now is better than ten years of studying. I will tell my mother and brother immediately that he can become a minor official under the rule of an uncle in my clan, or he can go to Uncle He to practice martial arts." . "
Wang Yue looked at Lou Yao who had been fooled by him and felt really sorry. He quickly warned, "Remember to tell your mother and your brother that they must not cancel the engagement. If your eldest brother decides to cancel the engagement, Let them leave a note. If the He family regrets it in the future, they must marry the eldest family member to provide for it. "
Lou Yao originally turned around and was about to leave. Hearing Wang Yue's words, he almost moved away. He didn't expect that Wang Yue, who had just tried to persuade him to make peace, changed his direction as soon as he changed the subject. He quickly saluted and looked embarrassed. ran out.
When Lou Yao walked away, Cheng Shaoshang couldn't help laughing. She also forgot that she was angry with Wang Yue just now. She held her stomach and laughed in an inconspicuous manner for a while, and then she said to Wang Yue happily. , "Mr. Wang, are you fooling a simple child like this? Then He Zhaojun obviously likes another man, why should he let his arms hang on the tree with her crooked neck?" Wang Yue saw that the little girl had forgotten to talk to him
. When he got angry, he pretended not to care and said, "I am doing this for Lou Yao's own good. Either Lou Yao will get married immediately after He Zhaojun and Xiao Shizi get engaged, or they can only get married after He Zhaojun is hurt by Xiao Shizi." , he has no other choice to get it back. It’s a bit difficult just to get engaged again. After all, their big house has great resistance." Yuan Shen heard what Wang Yue said, but retorted with disapproval, "As long as it can be
lifted After the engagement, who can embarrass Lou Yao?"
Wang Yue rolled his eyes at Yuan Shen and said disdainfully, "The Lou family owes the He family favors, but when they were engaged to He Zhaojun, they chose the second bedroom instead of the big bedroom. You can advance, attack, retreat or defend. When it came time for Lou Ben to become an official, Ling Buyi and I both recommended him. However, Taifu Lou bluntly said that his nephew was not good at learning and needed to sharpen his skills, so Lou Ben lost the opportunity to meet the emperor. , and also ended Lou Ben's future. Speaking of which, you have to thank Taifu Lou. If he hadn't suppressed Lou Ben, with his talent and learning, you might not be able to sit at the head of the four great princes in Kyoto."
Yuan Shen's expression was very embarrassing. He really thought that Lou Ben liked to travel around. He had even read Lou Ben's travel notes and wished he could imitate Lou Ben and travel around. However, it was only because of family ties that he never made the trip. Unexpectedly, there is no such thing as being free and easy, only a belly full of sadness that has no reason.
Yuan Shen, who was the focus of his family's training, really didn't know that there were still people suppressing his family's talents and not letting his family's talents come forward. It was simply unbelievable.
You must know that there are only so many official positions. If you suppress the talents of your own family, those good positions will be taken away by other families. After all, the appointment requires a face-to-face interview, and although today's people are kind, they are not mediocre. Anyone who recommends you will use it immediately.
After Yuan Shen couldn't understand, he knew his own shortcomings. He didn't want to think about this problem anymore. After all, Taifu Lou didn't look like a fool. Why he did stupid things was really confusing. He turned around and looked at Cheng Shaoshang, this time, said more cheerfully, "Mrs. Cheng, please tell your third aunt Sang that after you return home, I'm thinking of you. I just want a few words!"
Cheng Shaoshang was stunned for a while, and then he remembered. Regarding this matter, she nodded quickly and said, "It's so nice to talk like that. I can understand it right away. You were so roundabout just now. I don't even know what you are talking about." Yuan Shen was speechless by Cheng Shaoshang
. Therefore, he felt that arguing with Cheng Shaoshang about his wealth was like playing the harp to a cow. He glanced at Wang Yue, who was like an old fox, and immediately reminded Cheng Shaoshang in straightforward words, "If you are stupid, you should study more, otherwise, The guy next to you with nine eyes sold you, and you don't even know how."
