Happy Marriage

Chapter 234: Kill the chicken to warn the monkey

Xia Ziwu received an invitation from Ling Luobing from the Mausoleum Palace, and was a little surprised.

She remembered the humiliation she suffered in the Prime Minister's mansion last time, and she still had lingering fears.

Naturally, she could not forget that at the last Hundred Flowers Banquet, Princess Luo Bing looked arrogant and indomitable.

Also, when they came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the guard at the door said that word intentionally or unintentionally.

Princess Luo Bing actually wanted to treat himself to tea, afraid it wasn't the Hongmen Banquet?

The Xue Shi, who wanted to become more and more powerful, was also a little uneasy this time. But on second thought, the person who offended Princess Luo Bing was Xia Ansheng, what was he afraid of? Even the Lord Luo Bing's anger seems to have little to do with his daughter.

What happened last time was a misunderstanding. As long as it is solved, and we share the same hatred, maybe we will still have a friendship.

In any case, the invitation of Princess Luo Bing is a must.

Xia Ziwu learned smart this time, and did not dare to dress up too much.

The banquet is held in Lanyuelou.

Xia Ziwu got off the carriage and met Yue Kexin, the daughter of the prime minister.

When Yue Kexin saw her, she raised her eyebrows unexpectedly. She didn't understand how Ling Luobing called her over. Wouldn't it be a shame?

Xia Ziwu flattered Di Fufu, but Yue Kexin ignored her, raised her head proudly, and wiped her side to take care of herself.

Xia Ziwu dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and the first-level official crushed people to death. Similarly, as the Prime Minister's mansion, he naturally has arrogant capital.

She followed Yue Kexin and entered Lanyuelou with a low eyebrow.

In the Lanyue Building, Ling Luobing arrived one step ahead of the two, leaning on the couch beside him, leisurely eating the pumpkin seeds that the maid had peeled. She raised her one-inch-long nails and trimmed them roundly, how could she be willing to peel melon seeds?

Yue Kexin and her were already acquainted with her, so they didn't show much courtesy after meeting, and sat in front of Ling Luobing with a crooked body. Xia Ziwu had to kowtow to her honestly.

Although they are the daughter of an official family, they do not have any titles or ranks. Ling Luobing is different. She is the princess of the royal family. Even if the court officials see her, they should respectfully greet her.

"County Lord, why did you think of coming here to eat tea today? The tea here is so rough, how can it get into your mouth?"

"I heard that there is a new kind of tea here, the most refreshing, so I can't wait to come and try it."

Ling Luobing gave the maid beside her a wink, and the maid immediately understood, got up and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yue Kexin.

Yue Kexin lowered her head and glanced at the tea in her hand. The tea soup was golden and slightly cloudy, and it smelled a bitter, bitter fragrance.

"This tea just looks at the brown color, but it doesn't look as clear as the longevity eyebrows in your house. And it smells a bitter fragrance, aren't you the most afraid of bitterness?"

Ling Luobing rolled her eyelids and glanced at her: "You are well aware of my preferences."

Yue Kexin said happily: "That's natural, you and I are sisters who grew up together since childhood, and I care about you."

Ling Luobing stretched lazily and said meaningfully: "Indeed, you and I have grown up together since childhood, and we know each other best. After getting along for a long time, over time, it may be subtle, and many preferences are amazing. Yes - similar."

Yue Kexin didn't hear what she meant, but instead said complacently: "This is called, heroes see the same thing."

The two sang and answered, completely ignoring Xia Ziwu who was kneeling on the ground. Xia Ziwu kept kneeling on the ground, not daring to let out the air, so he could only lower his head, and honestly recognized Ma Wei.

Ling Luobing smiled and did not refute Yue Kexin's slightly flattering words: "This good thing, naturally everyone likes it. Just like the name Lanyuelou, the moon is surrounded by nine days, and everyone likes the moon. I wish you could take it off and keep it for yourself. However, you have to weigh your own abilities and see if you are worthy, do you think?"

These words were a bit yin and yang, and Yue Ke Xin was taken aback for a moment. Seeing Ling Luobing's sharp eyes jumping over Xia Ziwu on the ground, he immediately misunderstood. Could it be that Sang scolded Huai and teased Xia Ziwu?

She immediately answered: "The county lord's words are true. Some people don't know how much they weigh when they reach the sky.

Xia Ziwu lowered his head even lower, not daring to speak, but he didn't understand what the two of you were saying, what was the reason for this sarcasm?

Ling Luobing instructed the maid on the side: "Go and give Miss Xia a cup of tea and try it."

The maid obeyed and brought a cup, Xia Ziwu thanked Ling Luobing for the reward against her heart, and put it on her lips and took a light sip.

As soon as the tea soup entered the mouth, a bitter taste burst open in the mouth, quickly occupying the taste buds. Xia Ziwu didn't dare to vomit, and the bitterness in his mouth was unbearable, so he could only swallow with a stretched neck. I just felt pain in my throat. And the bitter taste came straight up, lingering in the mouth all the time, getting stronger and stronger.

Where is this tea soup, it is clearly Coptis chinensis.

"Is it delicious?" Ling Luobing smiled.

Xia Ziwu clenched his teeth tightly to prevent himself from losing his temper. After showing his expression, he nodded.

Ling Luobing glanced at her sideways, and then urged Yue Kexin: "What are you doing, hurry up and drink it while it's hot."

Yue Kexin estimated that the tea would no longer scald her mouth, so she took a sip, and was sipping it twice on the tip of her tongue, a bitterness that made her almost spit it out.

At that time, she made a murmur in her heart, what does Ling Luobing mean, taking Huanglian water for herself to drink?

Could it be that he accidentally provoke her?

"How is it?" Ling Luobing asked Yue Kexin first with a smile.

Yue Kexin swallowed the tea hard, and forced a smile: "It's just a little bitter."

"Bitterness is right, good medicine is bitter, and honest words are against your ears. This tea is the only way to clear your mind and eyes, so as not to be blinded by anger, and some things can't be seen clearly. You should drink all this cup of tea, and you won't come here in vain."

These words are meaningful, Yue Kexin can be sure that he has indeed offended her.

She smiled embarrassingly, not knowing how to ask, she reluctantly brought the teacup to her lips, but she really didn't have the courage to take another sip.

Ling Luobing winked at the maid again: "Such good tea can't be wasted. Give most of the remaining pots on the table to Miss San Xia and let her drink it all."

The maid gave orders in a low voice, Xia Ziwu suddenly felt miserable, and said with a frown: "His Royal Highness, this tea is really hard to swallow."

Ling Luobing snorted softly: "There is a saying: You must endure hardships, and you will be a superior person. You are all thinking about ascending to the sky one step at a time, and dreaming of climbing the Dingguohou Mansion. Naturally, you have to taste the necessary hardships."

Xia Ziwu suddenly woke up at this time, the root is here.

"Don't dare, Your Royal Highness, Ziwu has self-knowledge, how dare he climb Dingguohou's mansion, there must be some misunderstanding?"

Yue Kexin, who was on the side, immediately understood the meaning of this Hongmen banquet.

Ling Luobing likes Yu Jingyun, she knows this. Ling Luobing had shown off Yu Jingyun in front of her more than once or twice. I heard that two days ago, the Dingguo Marquis Mansion was selecting the prince concubine, this Xia Ziwu should not be out of his own power, and he is also participating in the election, right?

However, what does Ling Luobing mean by beating him with words when he called him? I didn't mix myself.

As soon as Ling Luobing raised his hand, he picked up a scroll of painting and slammed it on Xia Ziwu's face: "Don't dare to climb high? Then I ask you, why did your portrait appear in the Dingguohou Mansion? Is it possible that it is? Can't you just give birth to your own wings and fly over?"

The portrait fell to the ground and unfolded, revealing Xia Ziwu leaning against the flower tree with a shy look on his face.

Ling Luobing sneered in disdain: "Scratching his head and making a pose, with a coquettish look, he ran to seduce my brother Jingyun, do you really want to be the prince concubine of Dingguohou's mansion? ."

Her words were filled with anger and jealousy. Xia Ziwu is not stupid, and he naturally understands it immediately. Does this county master like Yu Shizi?

She said incoherently: "This...this, Ziwu has self-knowledge, and never dared to think about the position of the prince concubine. Xu is...the father's own opinion is unknown."

"Bitch!" Ling Luobing glanced at her with contempt: "If you don't want to be a prince concubine, what do you want to do? Be a concubine, or a side concubine? As long as you can marry into the Dingguohou mansion, let you be a concubine. Girl, are you willing? Brother Jingyun even praised you for being so bright and beautiful, so he should really let him see your cheap appearance with his own eyes."

These words made Xia Ziwu burst into ecstasy, Yu Shizi praised himself for being bright and beautiful? No wonder so many candidates for the prince's concubine, this Princess Luo Bing was embarrassed for herself. Could it be that Yu Shizi fell in love with her Xia Ziwu at a glance, which made this Princess Luo Bing jealous?

Originally, she didn't really hold out much hope. I feel that Yu Jingyun is a character with eyes higher than the top, and ordinary vulgar fans can't be seen. So many famous ladies have stepped through the threshold of Dingguohou Mansion, and it is naturally not easy for him to stand out from it.

But Ling Luobing's words made the hope in her heart rise instantly, like fireworks blooming in the night sky, colorful, extending infinite light.

This kind of joy permeated from the inside out, Ling Luobing saw a hint of pride from her slightly raised lips, and instantly became angry, grabbed the cup of tea from Yue Kexin's hand, raised her hand, and splashed it on her face.

This glass of water couldn't be quenched, but fortunately it was no longer hot, but it was enough to wake up Xia Ziwu who was in his reverie.

She didn't dare to raise her head to wipe, but hurriedly kowtowed to confess her guilt: "The county lord spares your life, the county lord spares your life, Ziwu is just a mustard, how dare you enter the eyes of the prince? Ziwu is wrong, Ziwu will no longer dare."

Xia Ziwu kowtowed like pounding garlic, and the arrogance in Ling Luobing's heart subsided a little.

"The most important thing is to have self-knowledge. How can Brother Jingyun be coveted by you? Today, the county master is not afraid to tell you plainly that in the future, stay away from Brother Jingyun, otherwise if I find out, you Be careful of your dog's life!"

How can Xia Ziwu dare to talk back if he does not suffer from immediate losses? I kept kowtowing and begging, swearing and swearing that I would never dare again.
