Although Xiao Lingdang was deliberately dressed poorly and her face was smeared dirty, she still couldn't conceal her slender appearance, especially her eyes, which made Nan Rongwenjun sigh inwardly.
Tang Xiaohao looked at Tang Dun next to him and asked in a low voice: "Does she have something against you?"
Tang Dun replied in a low voice: "I owe her a lot of money."
Tang Xiaohao gritted his teeth and said, "I knew it. I'll deal with you later."
Tang Chen actually pulled out the knife at this time and handed it directly to Xiao Lingdang: "Girl, do it."
This time it was Xiao Lingdang's turn to be confused. She didn't expect that Tang Chen would directly hand over the knife.
Tang Chen glanced at Tang Xiaohao at this time. After all, he was his own son, and he still understood. It was entirely because Nan Rong Wenjun was in front of him that he had to perform such a play.
Nanrong Wenjun sneered and said: "Master, who are you trying to scare with your knife? I'm here to ask for an explanation, not to beg for my life. Put the knife away. Wangshu is getting married soon, so he's not going to use a knife or a gun."
auspicious."
"What Madam said is," Tang Chen put away the knife and asked again, "Madam, do you think any way to handle this matter is more appropriate?"
Nanrong Wenjun asked: "Tang Dun, you brought your cousin to the house, it shouldn't be as simple as asking for money, right?"
Tang Dun immediately said: "Madam, I have followed the general for many years and have accumulated a lot of savings. It is not for money, but for an explanation. My cousin is a yellow flower girl. How can I get married in the future? Moreover, according to Dachang law, if a woman is over 20 years old,
If you are still not married, you will have to pay heavy taxes. Then..."
Tang Chen did not express his opinion, and Tang Xiaohao could not say anything, because now in the main hall, Nan Rong Wenjun had the power to speak and make decisions.
Nanrong Wenjun said: "Xiaohao is about to become the prince-in-law. If word of this spreads out, it will not be a glorious thing for the Tang family and even the Nanrong family, and Xiaohao cannot be allowed to marry his cousin who is a personal servant.
"
At this time, Xiao Lingdang touched Tang Dun with her heel.
Tang Dun closed his eyes and said bravely: "Madam, you don't need a matchmaker to marry me, that's all."
Nan Rongwenjun smiled: "Then what's going on? We've already talked about this, why don't we talk about it openly."
Tang Dun said: "Madam, I kindly ask the general and his wife to take my cousin in and make her a maid in the house."
"Maid?" Nan Rong Wenjun was still smiling, "Is she the young master's personal maid? Ouch, my young master is amazing. Not only does he have a personal servant, a personal fat cat, but now he also has a personal maid."
The jelly bean in the corner was stunned again: Where have I gained weight? This is obviously the cuteness expanding!
Tang Chen heard this and borrowed the donkey down the slope: "Tang Dun, thank you madam quickly!"
Tang Dun and Xiao Lingdang kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Madam! I will remember Madam's great kindness and kindness in my heart, and I will repay you as an ox or a horse in this life!"
Originally, Nan Rong Wenjun just said that, but Tang Chen answered the words too quickly, so he had to sneer and turn around to leave. Before leaving, he deliberately walked up to Tang Xiaohao and said: "It's okay, I have a personal maid, so you don't have to be in front of me."
Do you want to cause some trouble before marrying the consort? But, as I said before, if she has a child, it is up to you to decide the identity of her and the child. When the time comes, it will not be us who will decide this matter, but Princess Baomeng.
"
"Thank you, mother," Tang Xiaohao lowered his head and said, "I wish mother good health, eternal youth, all the best, and all your wishes come true..."
After Nan Rong Wenjun left, Tang Chen said: "Okay, Tang Dun, take your cousin down to wash up and change clothes. By the way, what's her name?"
Tang Dun immediately said: "Return to the general, since she is already the young master's son and has entered the Tang Mansion, then she will change her surname to Tang, and from now on she will be called Tang Ling, Ling Dang Ling."
Tang Chen nodded: "What a good name. Fortunately, it's a girl. If it's a boy, it should be called Tang Dang."
When Xiao Lingdang heard this, she almost fell to the ground. Sure enough, they were a father and a son, and their brains would have cramps from time to time.
Tang Xiaohao left with Tang Dun and Xiao Lingdang. As soon as they entered the side courtyard, after arriving at the rockery, Tang Xiaohao stopped and turned around to look at the two of them. Xiao Lingdang looked indifferent and went to smell the flowers nearby, while Tang Dun knelt directly there.
, holding his ears with both hands.
Tang Xiaohao looked at Tang Dun with a smile: "Tell me, are you going to go to Jiutian or go to Jiuyu?"
Tang Dun held his mouth and looked like he was crying: "Is there any difference?"
Tang Xiaohao said: "You are getting smarter and smarter. You know that death is inevitable anyway, so why don't you choose a way to die?"
Tang Dun said seriously: "I choose to die of old age!"
Tang Xiaohao raised his fist and was about to hit him, but Xiao Lingdang stepped forward and said, "Do you want me to dig a hole first and wait for him to die so that I can bury him in it?"
Tang Xiaohao said: "Did you hear that? This is called burning bridges, and it is also called the most poisonous woman's heart... I don't understand, how can you owe her money?"
Tang Dun replied: "Once, my brother, I, and her, the three of us went to drink. She said that she was a good drinker. My brother and I didn't believe it, so we made a bet, and we lost."
Tang Xiaohao glanced at the little bell and asked Tang Dun: "How much did you two lose?"
Little Lingdang said proudly: "Everything is ruined."
Tang Dun held his mouth and did not dare to look at Tang Xiaohao.
Tang Xiaohao took a deep breath: "It seems that you two have lost everything you can in this life at once. How many times have I told you that gambling is not allowed, and gambling can kill people."
Xiao Lingdang grabbed Tang Xiaohao's arm: "What about Huang!? Isn't Huang harmful to others?"
Tang Xiaohao immediately said: "That's unfair to Huang... I'm just curious, how much did you drink to drink them both?"
Xiao Lingdang let go of Tang Xiaohao: "The three of us drank ten catties in total. I used to have a nickname called Jiujin."
Tang Xiaohao was stunned and said after a long time: "So, Tang Dun and Lian Lian drank one catty together, and you drank nine catties alone?"
Little Bell smiled and said: "Yes, you don't believe it? If you don't believe it, let's try it tonight?"
Tang Xiaohao said: "Okay, you drink wine and I drink rice wine."
Little Lingdang put away her smile: "The rice wine is called thirsty water, it's a drink. Do you, a grown man, want to face it?"
Tang Xiaohao said angrily: "You are a woman, but you can drink nine kilograms of liquor. Do you want to be embarrassed? You still have the nerve to say it!"
Little Bell raised his fist with a sneer and cracked the knuckles of his five fingers.
Tang Xiaohao immediately changed his expression: "I'm worried about you. Drinking too much alcohol is not good for your health, especially on that day of the month. It will make you miserable. It will hurt both your body and my heart."
Xiao Lingdang said: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, where do I live? I have to change clothes and take a shower. Tang Dun, boil some water for me. By the way, after I take a shower, I will want to eat something spicy and delicious.
Please prepare it, thank you."
Little Bell walked towards Tang Xiaohao's room. Tang Xiaohao knew that his nightmare had begun. Who is the servant?
Tang Xiaohao turned to look at Tang Dun who was kneeling there: "Congratulations, you have found yourself a master again. Now you have to serve two people. Don't you think your IQ is very impressive?"
Only at this moment did Tang Dun understand that after Xiao Lingdang entered the Tang Mansion, his original status had dropped again. Now the status order is - Xiao Lingdang, Tang Xiaohao, Tangdou, and Tang Dun.
If the structure of Tang Mansion is a pyramid, then the location of Tang Dun should be the foundation of the pyramid.
——
At the Qinghe Hunting Ground, a little lamb was jumping and playing alone. It stopped from time to time and looked at the Rouyuan Palace in the distance. But it didn't know that on a hill in the distance, a girl was holding a bow and arrow.
Got it right.
The girl is tall and straight, a head taller than the average Chinese women. Her hair is in a single braid, hanging down behind her. She also wears a gemstone and jade pendant on her braid. This is the sign of the Tuorsi women after they reach adulthood.
The hairstyle they wear is called Wusi Tai. As long as the women of the Torsi tribe are considered adults when they are over 13 years old, they must comb their hair into Wu Si Tai, wear right-cut robes, and wear sturdy and wear-resistant cowhide boots.
If necessary, leather armor needs to be put on the outside.
The girl on the hill is dressed like this. The difference is that she wears copper rings on her limbs, wrists and ankles. She also wears a leather armor on the right side of her robe, plus the three-foot ram's horn bow in her hand.
The weight he carried was even worse than that of the soldiers of the Shendu Army.
This girl who seems to have stars in her eyes, with fair and rosy skin filled with pride, picturesque features, and skin like snow is Princess Baomeng of the Torsi Department.
"Would you like to eat roast lamb tonight?" A voice sounded from not far away.
Princess Baomeng put down the three-foot ram's horn bow in her hand and turned to look at the young man who was wearing the royal robes and looked exactly like the current emperor Ji Chengying, but he deliberately grew a beard to distinguish him.
The young man was none other than Ji Chengying's twin brother Ji Hanguang, Prince Xi of the Dachang Dynasty.
"Brother Hanguang," Princess Baomeng said with a smile on her face, "Why are you here?"
Ji Hanguang yawned and said, "I woke up and had nothing to do, so I came to see you. I didn't expect that as soon as I arrived, I saw that you were about to execute your beloved little lamb."
Princess Baomeng looked at the little lamb still jumping in the distance: "I will not kill it until it grows up."
Ji Hanguang recalled for a while and said: "I have even forgotten how many sheep you raised by yourself have shot to death."
Princess Baomeng said: "For us people in the Torsi tribe, sheep symbolize wealth and status, as well as a beautiful vision."
Ji Hanguang looked at the lamb in the distance: "Then why did you kill the beautiful vision with your own hands?"
Princess Baomeng walked up to Ji Hanguang: "The purpose of raising sheep is to eat, and a sheep can live for more than ten years at most. It can't stay with me for a lifetime. The most important thing is..."
"The most important thing is that you are the princess of the Torsi tribe. You can't be too weak. The women of the Torsi tribe are all warriors." Ji Hanguang helped Princess Baomeng finish the following words, "Let's not talk about sheep, let's talk about great counselors."
Well, my eldest brother will not allow him to take another step into the Qinghe hunting ground, otherwise, his head will fall to the ground."
Princess Baomeng was not angry, nor did she have any regrets. She just said: "Mr. Sang said when he left last time that he would not come again before I married that scumbag who is the number one in the city of God."
Ji Hanguang lay directly on the grass and looked at the sky: "Very unwilling, right?"
Princess Baomeng sat next to Ji Hanguang: "Yes, but it's useless. Since I am the princess of the Torsi tribe, I have no right to choose. However, Mr. Sang will always be in my heart and no one can replace him."
Ji Hanguang pulled out a piece of grass and put it in his mouth: "People are very strange. They always fall in love with another person for no reason. Let me ask you, do you really like Sang Luo?"
Princess Baomeng nodded without hesitation: "I like it."
Ji Hanguang asked again: "Do you remember when you started to like him? What do you like about him?"
Princess Baomeng thought about it for a long time, but seemed to not find the answer: "Is it important?"
Ji Hanguang said: "If it were anyone else, it really wouldn't matter, but you are the princess and he is the great counselor, so the reason for liking him is very important."
Princess Baomeng looked at Ji Hanguang and knew that there was a deeper meaning in those words.
Ji Hanguang stood up and said: "Sang Luo is the great counselor of the dynasty. The prerequisite for being a great counselor is not to be swayed by emotions. It is precisely because of this that when my father was still alive, he appointed Sang Luo to be your teacher.
If someone comes to teach you, you will resist. Others who are younger will not have that ability, so Sangluo is the most suitable candidate."
Princess Baomeng said: "I know that Sang Luo is actually here to monitor me."
"No, I'm here to protect you," Ji Hanguang stretched, "You have to believe that our Ji family will not hurt you, because the peace between Rouyuan and Rouyuan today was obtained by tens of thousands of lives, and you are
It is a symbol of peace between the Ji family and the Torsi tribe. If something happens to you, the Torsi tribe will now be well-known and have more reason to send troops."
Princess Baomeng was very puzzled: "Why is there a need to fight? Aren't we all the people of Jiuyuan?"
"Silly girl, the reason is very simple," Ji Hanguang said with a smile. "From a human perspective, no one wants to be a groveling minister. It was for this reason that the Torsi Department raised troops seventeen years ago."
Princess Baomeng asked again: "Mr. Sang said that there can only be one person who can rule the world, otherwise there will be chaos."
Ji Hanguang continued: "Do you know what an emperor is? Sang Luo taught you, right?"
Princess Baomeng recalled: "The one who can nourish the creatures of Heaven without coaxing them is called the Son of Heaven."
Ji Hanguang said: "Yes, the person who can maintain the life created by heaven without harming it is the emperor. However, putting the fate of all people in the world into the hands of one person is the beginning of disaster."
Princess Baomeng didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
Ji Hanguang stood up and said: "Let's go, let's not talk about this anymore, go back and show you some novel things, and also tell you about your future husband."
The movement of the Son of Heaven is due to the whole sky. This official's place is self-established. Those who establish an official are based on the whole life. In this world, if you confuse the master and have too many officials, but harm the life, then you will lose the place you established.
For example, if you build an army to prepare for the invaders, if you build an army now to attack yourself, you will have lost what you built for it.
Princess Baomeng still remembers the words taught by Sang Luo, which means that everything the emperor does is to preserve the life and humanity of the emperor. This is the fundamental reason for the establishment of officials. The establishment of officials is to preserve life. If the emperor is fatuous,
, the establishment of officials actually harmed lives, which betrayed the original meaning of establishing officials. Just as the establishment of armed forces was used to prevent foreign enemies, but ended up being used to kill each other, then the original meaning of establishing armed forces was lost.
The Ji family of Huayuan, the Tuolsi tribe of Rouyuan, the Yan tribe of Ruiyuan, and even other plains are all the people of Jiuyuan. The descendants of Kunlun, why do they have to kill each other? Simply because of what Ji Hanguang said
That reason?
Princess Baomeng didn't know, she just hoped that if she could buy long-term peace with herself, then it wouldn't be a bad idea to marry a scumbag. This chapter has been completed!
