It's midnight in the Jianjia Courtyard of the Wei Mansion.
When Zidie yawned and brought a plate of freshly made snacks into the room, and saw Zhang Qingjiu holding a book in his hand while the red wedding dress was thrown aside, she couldn't help but
He sighed and said, "Little miss, why have you started reading these books again? If the princess knows that you are still reading without taking a rest in the middle of the night, she will have to talk to you again tomorrow."
Zhang Qingjiu chuckled lightly, without raising his head, and turned another page in the book in his hand, "If you don't tell, I won't tell, and Yunque doesn't tell, how will she know?"
"Then you can't read it in the middle of the night. It will hurt your eyes. Even the top scorers didn't work as hard as you." Zidie curled her lips, put the cake aside, and raised the wick higher with a pick.
"What you said makes it sound like you have seen some number one scholar reading a book." After reading the last page, Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyes and looked at Zidie with a hint of teasing in his eyes. Skylark stepped forward without moving.
He lewdly took away the closed book in her hand.
Hearing what Zhang Qingjiu said, Zidie blushed instantly, "How can I? The young lady will make fun of me all the time. I just heard the people who talk about it outside say that the top picks all have their heads cantilevered and their buttocks can be hung, and they can smell chickens.
To dance."
In the past, when Zidie followed the original owner in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she had to do some shopping work, so she also got the opportunity to listen to some things.
Zhang Qingjiu knew that she had an innocent and lively nature, so he did not restrain her. Thinking of what he had just read in the book, his heart moved, "It seems that you have listened to a lot of dramas. Why don't you come with me?"
Tell me, what are they?"
When she mentioned this, Zidie's eyes lit up: "It depends on what the young lady wants to hear. Is it the four folk legends, Liang Caizi and Miss Zhu, or... Mr. Xiao Zhang, or the prince and the prince's concubine?
?”
It's just that at the end of the sentence, the tone inexplicably changed, and it became a bit more teasing.
Zhang Qingjiu didn't mind at all that Zidie was so bold now. He looked at her strange eyes and sneered, "Are there any interesting stories about the previous dynasty?"
"The previous dynasty?" Zidie was stunned for a moment, "What was there in the previous dynasty?"
Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes, "For example, before the previous dynasty was defeated, was there anything particularly worth saying about their king?"
In the past few days, she had been reading the books Chu Wei gave her from the palace, records about Penglai, but she found that except for the so-called "two legends" which were written vividly, there were no other records for reference.
Just when she thought there was nothing, she suddenly saw a line of records: "Xuanyuan Jinghong, the king of the previous dynasty, ordered a massive search for the location of Penglai, but to no avail."
Although it was a few words, it made her have to think more about why a king who was about to perish his country suddenly wanted to find Penglai Island?
But perhaps it was because Da Hui was a newly established dynasty after overthrowing his regime, or perhaps because such a subjugated king did not deserve to have his life recorded in detail. All in all, the book records she had seen had nothing to do with this Xuanyuan.
There are very few records of Jinghong.
And as she is now, let alone going out to inquire about Xuanyuan Jinghong, she can't get out even through the gate of Jianjia Courtyard.
She really didn't expect that according to the customs of Dahui, she would have to be separated from Chu Lan for such a long time. She would have to return to her mother's clan. Not only would she not be able to see each other, she would not be able to exchange letters.
But what she didn't expect was that not only that, she would also have to string the golden beads on the wedding dress for herself within a month, and call it "perfection".
Zhang Qingjiu couldn't help but have a headache when he thought of this.
Just because he can't see Chu Lan, when Chu Lan succeeds to the throne, he will have to find a way to depose him.
Where did you break the bad rules?
Zidie searched around in her mind, but didn't think there was anything worth saying. Seeing her master's frown, an idea suddenly flashed in her mind, "Yes! Yes!"
"What's there? Say it quickly!" Zhang Qingjiu's eyes lit up, and the unhappiness in his heart was instantly forgotten.
On the other side, Skylark also came over, looking like he was listening attentively.
Seeing that both of them were attracted to her, Zidie rolled her eyes and said mysteriously, "That Xuanyuan Jinghong, it is said that he was the most beautiful man in the world at that time, and he was even more beautiful than women.
All the women who saw his appearance wanted to marry him. And he was named because the midwife who delivered him saw his appearance and was so handsome that she fainted at just one glance, so he has the reputation of a sudden glimpse...
…”
"Stop!" Seeing Zidie getting more and more excited as she spoke, Zhang Qingjiu finally couldn't help but interrupt her and sighed deeply.
She should have known that little girl Zidie couldn't hold anything in her head, especially when she said the word "beautiful man".
What gave her the courage to expect to get useful information from this girl?
Skylark also looked at Zidie who was still excited with a dark look on his face. He subconsciously moved two steps, but as if he remembered something, he took another two steps forward.
"Little miss, isn't this something special? What a good-looking man!" Zidie still hasn't come to her senses. Doesn't her master just like handsome men?
For example, His Highness the Crown Prince is about to get married, or that evil-hearted Murong Chunlai!
"I..." Zhang Qingjiu twitched the corner of his mouth and almost burst into tears, "It's okay. I plan to rest. You can go out."
What gives them the illusion that they only like good-looking men?
Although, she does have a good reputation.
But she has Chu Lan. As for Chu Lan’s face, how many people in the world can compare with it?
"Then... shall I go?" Zidie finally realized something was wrong, swallowed, stood up and said.
"Let's go." Zhang Qingjiu sighed and waved his hands. There was no hope. We should wait until after the engagement.
Yunque watched helplessly from the side, and the corner of his mouth moved, "What are you talking about, sir, that concerns the common people? You pick these to talk about."
"I..." Zhang Qingjiu raised his head, once again not knowing what to say.
Yunque doesn't think that now that she has become a princess, she only thinks about the people and national affairs, and plans to find some "drawing lessons from history" stories from the demise of the previous dynasty, right?
She really hasn't realized that yet.
However, unexpectedly, Zidie seemed to have been touched by Ren and Du's second pulse, and suddenly said "Ouch", "Yes, yes! I know one, I remembered it!"
"What?" Zhang Qingjiu rubbed his brows and gave up hope.
"That Xuanyuan Jinghong, for some reason, after he woke up from a serious illness, suddenly issued an order not to allow people to worship in their homes. In addition, he personally destroyed the temple where the royal family worshiped. It was because of this, but
Within a year, he was rebelled by the clan and the people, and was finally pierced by thousands of arrows and died..." At this point, Zidie sighed, "It is said that he was originally very respected, even though he had done
The emperor has only been ten years old, but he has reached the peak of the previous dynasty's prosperity. Such a sudden turn of events is really unexpected. So some people say that if it hadn't been for his actions, I'm afraid the previous dynasty would have lasted for a hundred generations..."
