Beauty is poisonous

Chapter 174 Two birds with one stone

Zhuo Shitian's face darkened, he was not a fool, now that Feng Muen came out, it was obviously for Tao Zhizhang!Don't worry about any of these!He didn't take the righteousness of the country into his heart at all, so he knew he cared about his children's personal affairs.

It's okay to talk about Feng Muen, but it's wrong to talk about Sima Jue. Your country's righteousness is to grab Sima Jue's territory. It's no wonder people follow your wishes!

"General Feng, do you also want to point out the marriage?" Zhuo Shitian's words were threatening, and he said: "I am in a good mood today, but you can see if there is a daughter of the right family, if it is suitable, I will point it out to you It's okay."

This is said to make people scrutinize, if you hear it, it is the right match!
Although Feng Muen is a general now, he has the status of a criminal minister after all, so there is still some gap in matching the daughter of an official of the third rank or above, not to mention Tao Zhizhang, the princess who was personally appointed by the emperor!

How could Feng Muen fail to understand the meaning of Zhuo Qihua's words, but he is only such a cousin, how could it be possible for her to marry so far away in Wudi?If it's really a good marriage, it's fine, it's clear that Tao Zhizhang was sent as a spy.

Being a spy is a two-faced job. The husband's family guards against her and regards her as a thorn in the side. The emperor will also worry about her and suspect her. Once there is any conflict between the fief and the capital, the first to be thrown out is the spy. The worst spy in history was hanged on the gate of the city for three days with his intestines pierced.

Just imagine, how could Feng Muen be willing to let Tao Zhifang marry Wu Wang?

The emperor has made up his mind to cut down the feudal clan. King Wu is definitely not willing to cut down the feudal clan. If it is not done well, it may turn against the court. This is the real intention of the emperor to ask his cousin to monitor it nearby!

After the whole family was executed, his loyalty to the emperor was almost zero. Going to his country is righteous. In his opinion, anyone can be the emperor, as long as the people live well.

So he is determined to protect Tao Zhizhu.

At that moment, he gritted his teeth, pretended not to understand the meaning of Zhuo Shitian's words, took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to agree..."

"I agree with this prince to compete with General Feng in archery, and take the ancestral jade pendant of Feng's family and the jade finger of this prince's family as bets!"

Just when Feng Muen spoke, Zhuo Qihua interrupted Feng Muen's words with a smile.

Zhuo Shitian's expression is slightly relaxed, if Feng Mu Enzhen asks to marry Tao Zhizhang, it will not end well, it is absolutely impossible for him to agree to him, but he will not kill Feng Mu Enzhen. Willing to do it!

Firstly, he cherishes the talent of Feng Muen, and secondly, if Feng Muen is killed, then Tao Zhizun will really be useless, because Tao Zhizun will never help him.

If such a smart chess piece becomes useless, he will still feel distressed, even if Tao Zhijian is...

"Haha..." Zhuo Shitian laughed loudly and said, "It's just a bet but I have to witness it, how dare you say that!"

He said such words in his mouth, but his expression was very pleasant, which was completely opposite to what he said.

Feng Muen was shocked, he hesitated to speak, at this moment Zhuo Qihua grabbed him and lowered his voice: "Do you want Tao Zhizhang to die? If you think so, go ahead and propose!"

Feng Muen lost his voice in an instant. After thinking about it, he broke out in a cold sweat.

That's right, since Zhuo Shitian didn't dare to let Tao Zhijuan marry Zhuo Qihua, fearing that her treasure would bring strong support to Zhuo Qihua to seek the dynasty and usurp the throne, how could he let Tao Zhijuan marry him?
Marrying him, he will not only have the military power in his hands, but also treasures, and it is more likely that this will restrict Zhuo Qihua from using it for others. The most important thing is that the Feng family was originally framed because they supported the former prince. Although the emperor used him, he might not fully trust him.

If he really asks for a marriage, it is really possible to harm Tao Zhizhi. Maybe Zhuo Shitian is cruel and imprisoned Tao Zhizhi directly, and slowly searches for the whereabouts of the treasure.

Thinking of this, he was even more frightened by Zhuo Shitian's insidiousness. On the one hand, this Zhuo Shitian wanted Tao Zhifang to be a spy, and on the other hand, was it not a pawn used to contain him and Zhuo Qihua?

This move is really ruthless!

He stood there in a cold sweat, Zhuo Qihua saw that he had figured it out, so he said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Tao Zhizun can marry her in this life, no one else will be able to marry her!"

Only then did Feng Muen feel much better, and his gaze towards Zhuo Qihua became a little hotter.

The eyes of the people were strange. These two people were both dragons and phoenixes, with the posture of the sky.

So the wretched eyes came and went.

Zhuo Shitian coughed lightly when he saw this, and said: "Since General Feng and Hua'er are both lucky in archery, I'm afraid it won't make sense if I don't win a little bit. Let's do this, no matter who wins, I will allow you to win one." How about choosing a wife among all these daughters?"

After hearing Zhuo Qihua and Feng Muen yell at Zhuo Shitian as an old fox, they seized every opportunity to plot against them. This is no kind of grace, it is clearly a forced marriage!
Feng Muen said directly: "Back to the emperor, how can you call yourself home if you don't get rid of foreign invasion! So this general once swore that you will never marry a wife if you don't get rid of foreign invasion!"

fart!Zhuo Shitian secretly cursed, if you don't want to start a family, what did you want to do just now?Isn't it for marriage?
He was angry in his heart, but Zhuo Qihua showed a desolate expression, and started to choke: "Uncle, my father's bones are not cold, how can my nephew have the heart to start a family? Please allow my nephew to keep his filial piety for three years!"

Nima!Zhuo Shitian almost kicked Fei Zhuo Qihua, are you an actor?She is crying now, why did she laugh like a cat that stole the fish just now?

None of them are worry-free!
Those noble daughters were all disappointed, whether it was Zhuo Qihua or Feng Muen, they were all handsome and handsome, as beautiful as a virgin, and the power behind them was also at the height of their power, they were really women's first choice for husbands.

But when the two of them said that, it was over.

Zhuo Shitian was angry in his heart, but seeing the vassal kings below watching the show, he could only swallow his breath, and had to show a smile and said: "General Feng is really patriotic and ambitious, I am very pleased, as for Hua'er, if your father knows that you are so filial, Quan Xia will be happy if he knows."

Feng Muen and Zhuo Qihua were humble.

Zhuo Shitian didn't bother to pay attention to them, but said: "Since you don't choose beauties, then reward gold ingots, the winner... a gold ingot!"

All the ministers covered their lips and laughed, knowing that Zhuo Shitian was trying to play tricks on them.

Only Zhuo Qihua and Feng Muen knew that Zhuo Shitian had annoyed them and beat them.

Zhuo Qihua had a thick skin anyway, and said directly dissatisfied: "Uncle Huang, you are also persnickety, a gold ingot, are you willing to take it out?"

Zhuo Shitian snorted and said, "Just you, a troublemaker, even giving you a gold ingot is too much! Besides, are you so confident that you will definitely win? General Feng doesn't dislike it, what are you doing there?"

Zhuo Qihua played with a treasure and said: "Uncle, what do you mean by not bringing someone like you? You are trying to destroy your own prestige by taking advantage of others! Who said that Feng Muen must have won? You don't expect any nephews." Okay?"

Zhuo Shitian was very annoyed: "Hua'er, didn't I laugh at you three times, because you still want to compete with General Feng in archery with your usual dude?"

Zhuo Qihua was not convinced and said: "Uncle Huang doesn't look down on people so much, just watch your nephew win Feng Muen today!"

"Okay, if you win, I will give you a gold ingot too!"

"Then what's the difference between us, why don't we make a difference, anyway, every gold ingot is not a loss!"

After being stunned for a moment, Zhuo Shitian cursed: "You useless thing!"

Zhuo Qihua dragged Feng Muen away in a disheveled manner.

Being made such a fuss by Zhuo Qihua, the scene became lively.

Zhuo Shitian glanced at the vassal kings from all over the place, and said with a smile: "The two children are betting on archery, why don't we go and have a look?"

Even if Zhuo Shitian didn't mention it, they wanted to join in the fun.

So a group of people went to the raking field.

Tao Zhizhang fell behind, Lu Qiao took a glass of water and handed it to Tao Zhizhang, "Miss, drink some water, it's a bit hot here."

Tao Zhizhang took a sip of the water and said, "Drink some, too. There are many people here, and it's a bit hot."

Luqiao smiled and said, "Understood."

After looking around, he lowered his voice and said: "Miss, how did you know that the emperor would point Miss Si to King Wu as his side concubine? And how did you expect Young Master Biao to stand up again to ask for favors? Miss, you are actually very sorry." Honestly, if you explain the matter to Young Master Biao, he won't be so nervous to stand up and ask for marriage, and offend the emperor for nothing!"

Tao Zhizhi rolled her eyes at her, and spat: "What do you know, if I told my cousin in advance, would my cousin be so nervous and anxious?

If my cousin doesn't have these expressions, how can the cunning fox-like Zhuo Shitian let down his guard? "

"Yes, let the servants think of a folk proverb"

"What proverb?"

"Miss, don't blame the servant for speaking rudely, the servant can say it!"

"Speak!"

"Forgive you for being a cunning fox, but you have to drink my old lady's footwashing water!"

After Tao Zhizhang was stunned for a moment, he almost burst out laughing, isn't this a scolding of Zhuo Shitian?She felt so happy when she thought of a girl in Luqiao swearing this classic national curse at Zhuo Shitian with her waist in her waist!
Lu Qiao refused to obey: "Miss, I said I would not make fun of my servant, but I still made fun of my servant!"

"Okay, okay, stop laughing."

The master and the servant walked to the raking field talking and laughing. It was originally just a small competition of archery, but it was advanced and became a horse riding competition of archery. Moreover, a circle of rakes was placed in the middle of the field for the archers to surround. Go around the field, if you can't shoot all the rakes after a circle, you lose.

If you hit them all, it depends on the number of rings.

This competition is tailor-made for Feng Muen, there will be no suspense, but the son of Zhuo will not give up, so the emperor has no choice but to follow the competition.

However, the final result of the match was surprising. The dude Zhuo Qihua actually shot the same rake as Feng Muen, that is, the two were evenly divided.

Zhuo Qihua was happy at the moment, but Zhuo Shitian's complexion was not very good, he doted on Zhuo Qihua, it was because Zhuo Qihua was raised and abandoned by him!But suddenly one day someone told him that the disabled person he raised was not actually disabled, it's no wonder he looks so good!

The eyes looking at Zhuo Qihua are full of fear.

It's really pitiful for the emperor to be in such a high position, he has to guard against everyone, even his own son!
But it is undeniable that he is quite happy, that is the deterrent effect of the two of them on those vassal kings.Just imagine that Zhuo Qihua, who is known as a dandy, can have such superb horse stalls and archery skills, so how many such people are there in the entire capital!Not to mention the existing army!
And when everyone was watching the game intently, Sima Jue felt a heat in his chest, and saw a cup of tea poured into his pants.

At that time, there was a black line on his forehead. If he was in Wu country, he would have had this girl dealt with without even thinking about it.

But this is in the palace, he raised a harmless smile: "It's okay, be careful in the future!"

He knows very well that as long as everyone in the palace is alive, they have their own set of survival rules, and they are the most adaptable.

This little palace lady accepted his love today, so it is equivalent to putting the right eyes in the palace.

"The servant girl is leading the prince to change clothes?"

Seeing that he couldn't see anyone like this, Sima Jue agreed.

Fortunately, the palace is not far away, and he changed his clothes in a short while, but he didn't go to the raking ground, he knew that this was Zhuo Shitian giving him a blow, so why did he send him to his door to be humiliated by Zhuo Shitian?
He swayed slowly, looking at the scenery in the palace, but made up his mind that one day he would have everything here.

Looking at the water lilies in the lake, and hearing the applause coming from a distance, he couldn't do anything wrong, so he found a place to sit on the back of a rockery.

At this time, the voice of the palace maid chatting could be heard not far away, it was very free, which made Sima Jue somewhat envious.

Suddenly, he shrank his body back, reducing his sense of presence.

"Wanyu, is what you said true? Is it true that Lihua saved King Wu? But how did I hear that it was Miss Tao Si who saved King Wu?"

"What do you know? How can this good deed of saving people and becoming famous be taken over by others? Who makes a girl have no power and can only marry for others!"

"However, Wanyu, you haven't seen it with your own eyes, so how can you be sure that it was King Wu who was rescued by Lihua, not Miss Tao Si?"

"So you are stupid! You don't even think about it, who is the Tao wife? That is the daughter of the Hou's mansion! Although the Hou's mansion has fallen, it doesn't mean that everything that should be there has been cut down! What about the fourth lady, a boudoir girl?" Do you carry medicine for wounds? Only people who are often injured will carry medicine? Who else is the one who is often injured besides our ruthless maid?"

"You're right. But even if the medicine is from Lihua, you can't deny Miss Fourth's original intention to save people!"

"What is your original intention? What is Miss Tao Si? It's not like you don't know when you will be able to do this kind of life-saving work?"

"That's true. But I heard..." At this point, the little maid looked around and held back.

That Wanyu was furious, and said angrily, "Why are you so annoying, say half of what you say and keep the other half!"

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. In fact, I heard that the medicine that Lihua gave King Wu was actually a medicine for dysmenorrhea. You said that a good-looking man took it, what is it?"

Sima Jue's face turned dark when he heard this. He actually mentioned the medicine that the woman used to treat dysmenorrhea. If the news got out, he would lose face!
The two maids walked further and further away, but Sima Jue sat there without moving for a long time.

At this time, only a crisp voice said: "Sister Lihua, why don't you go and serve your young lady?"

"Why don't I go to serve you? You also know that I used to serve the eldest lady and the fourth lady temporarily. The fourth lady thought I was cumbersome and let me do things by myself."

"Hehe, speaking of you, you are very leisurely. By the way, what is your smell? It smells so good?"

"What's the smell? There's no smell!"

"Why not, oh, yes, it's the scent of medicine! It smells so good!"

Lihua smiled and said, "I've been wandering around in the pharmacy all the time, and I've smelled some medicine fragrance."

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and Sima Jue smelled the familiar smell of medicine. Suddenly, he stayed there, wasn't the smell of medicine the same as the medicine he took?

Is it...

He rushed out in a hurry, rushed towards Lihua, grabbed Lihua's hand and said, "Lihua, tell me, did you save this king?"

"Ah?" Lihua was stunned, staring at Sima Jue blankly. She looked at Sima Jue with a look of shyness on her face. The appearance of that girl Huaichun made Sima Jue feel good about herself again.

The voice also played judo: "Lihua, tell me, did you give me a pill?"

Lihua nodded and said: "I saw you, King Wu, lying injured in the alley before. It was the young lady who asked the servants to save the prince. From now on, the prince should treat the fourth lady well!"

"Don't talk about this, the king knows her kindness. Now I just want to know whether the medicine you gave me was made by you yourself or by Taoqiqi?"

Lihua said awkwardly: "This servant just likes medicinal materials, so how can I make any kind of medicine!"

Speaking of this, he was at a loss, and kept looking around.

This expression is obviously a lie!
Sima Jue immediately understood that the wound medicine he asked for was not made by Tao Qiqi at all, but by this maid!
And look at how charming this girl is, she is so glamorous, she is even higher than Tao Qiqi.I feel even better now.

He didn't know that the four maids around Tao Hanrui were originally intended to be the roommates for the fourth prince, is there any reason for that?
What's more, it was cultivated by the Lian family, so it is a thousand times better than Tao Qiqi, who is not loved by his parents or mother!

Sima Jue said softly, "Pear Blossom, is your name Pear Blossom?"

"My lord..." Lihua was very shy.

"How about my king marrying you?"

Li Hua, who was still shy and coquettish just now, turned pale instantly, and murmured: "My lord, although Li Hua is lowly, she doesn't want to marry as a concubine and be controlled by others. Li Hua is not blessed to accept the kindness of my lord!"

After all, she shook off Sima Jue's hand and was about to leave. How could Sima Jue let her go?Leaving is tantamount to losing a strong army and countless money.

He has already thought about it, those wound medicines are used to heal wounds, add some impurities into them and sell them to other countries. With the effect of this medicine, he will definitely make a lot of money.

At that moment, he made up his mind and said: "Lihua, don't worry, this king will never let you be a concubine! This king wants to marry you as his concubine! And he is the right concubine!"
