Foster son and husband

Chapter 188 Rude
King Qi and Meimei walked slowly side by side on the path shaded by flowers and plants beside the stream, chatting in whispers, the bright sunlight shone on them, and they felt hot, so they got under the thick wisteria flower shelf by the pool together, facing the pool water , looking at the fish in the pond spitting bubbles with their mouths exposed on the surface of the water, and the reflections of the light and shadows on the water surface, shining brightly, reflected on their faces, Meimei pointed at King Qi and smiled: "There are patterns on the face, so beautiful! Become a water demon!"

King Qi touched his face: "What kind of pattern does it grow? What kind of monster is it?"

"The tortoise pattern will turn into a turtle spirit in the water!"

King Qi was annoyed: "What's so good about a turtle? You're scolding me!"

Meimei said: "I think it's pretty! The tortoise is a mascot. It has a long life and spirituality. I used to have two tortoises at home. They are cute and cute!"

"Then you should become a turtle spirit too, look at the turtle lines on your face!"

King Qi said, reaching out to touch her face, and said with a smile: "Here, here! Well, this time I have a beard, haha!"

Meimei dodged, held up her skirt, and ran on tiptoe along the edge of the stream. King Qi ran faster than her, turned around to meet her, stretched out his hand for her to support, and jumped from the edge of the stream to the path. The two continued laughing. Walking forward, I unexpectedly met Xu Junying, who was expressionless and sullen in his eyes, next to a flowery tree with luxuriant branches and leaves.

Xu Junying had just returned to Cen's house. At the gate, she heard a report that there was a visitor. It was Ms. Lin and King Qi. When they entered the inner courtyard, they saw Cuisi and the little maid playing with Heng'er. The maid went to make tea for Lord Hou, and taught the other to go into the garden to report to the young lady, saying that Master Hou had returned. Xu Junying stopped the little maid, and walked quickly into the garden by herself. When she turned around the rockery, she saw Meimei and Qi. Wang Xihe was chasing and running by the creek, King Qi stretched out his hand, Meimei grabbed it naturally, and jumped over with his strength, the two were so close, the intimacy made him dizzy , King Qi, what does he want to do?Qiang Yizhi encouraged Meimei to leave Xu's mansion, and even came here to get close to her. He thought Xu Junying was dead?Maybe it was his idea to make himself Princess Shang. Doesn't he know that doing so is a big taboo?He intends to cut off the emperor's arm with the help of the empress dowager. If the emperor wants to punish him, he will be suppressed for the rest of his life, curled up in a corner for the rest of his life!

Meimei was startled when she saw Xu Junying, she didn't expect him to come back so soon, Fushen said: "Master Hou!"

Xu Junying glanced at her, didn't speak, leaned forward slightly, and bowed to King Qi:
"His Royal Highness King Qi came to the small house. Junying was out on business and couldn't meet him. Please forgive me!"

The corners of King Qi's lips tugged lightly, and he snorted: "Weiyuanhou, this is not your Xu residence, this is Cen Meimei's private residence. It is none of your business for me to visit Meimei!"

"King Qi's words are wrong! Meimei is my wife, a husband and wife family, how to divide her and mine?"

King Qi and Xu Junying looked at each other, their eyes were equally cold, as if they had encountered frost, the temperature quickly dropped to freezing point, Mei Mei shivered cleverly, looked around, why was it dark?It turned out that the sun was hidden in the clouds, and the wind was blowing, and it really became cooler.

Lin Runan on the pavilion saw the situation here, she stopped playing with crickets, stood over the railing and looked this way, Mei Mei said to Xu Junying: "Will Master Hou not accompany the old lady? Is she better?"

Xu Junying withdrew her gaze reluctantly, and said calmly: "The old lady is just a little dizzy, and it's not a serious problem. As I said, I will come back to accompany you and Heng'er as soon as possible!"

The King of Qi said: "Weiyuan Hou left Beijing this time, and things went smoothly, right? It seems that he has made another great contribution!"

He looked at Meimei: "You didn't tell me that Marquis Weiyuan is coming, since you invited me, I'll have dinner here!"

Meimei looked at him in annoyance: Anyone who comes uninvited is justified, but what does her master say is useful?

She waved to Lin Runan on the pavilion in the distance, turned and walked towards a small path: "Come back, everyone has to eat, and it's getting dark, so let's go back and make dinner!"

Xu Junying made way for King Qi on the corridor: "Please, Your Highness!"

King Qi followed Meimei on the path: "Please, Marquis Weiyuan, take a step first, and I will have a word with Meimei!"

Xu Junying's face turned green, how could he be tolerated like this, stepped up and stopped in front of him: "If you have anything to say, tell me at the dinner table, now I have something to discuss with my wife!"

After speaking, he turned and went to chase after Meimei. Just as King Qi was about to follow, Lin Runan ran to stop him in time: "His Royal Highness King Qi! Let's go this way, this way!"

King Qi saw Xu Junying and Meimei turn around the rockery, throwing Lin Runan away: "Troublesome! Do you want Meimei to be entangled by him? He can't marry his cousin now, and someday there will be many wives and concubines. How will Meimei be treated?" Come on? Why don't you take the opportunity to completely freeze now, Meimei will be refreshed and alone!"

"Of course I don't want him to pester Meimei while thinking about others, but now is not the time. The emperor has said that if Meimei insists on leaving, she will be condemned!"

"Hmph! After a few days in the palace, after being favored by the empress, his mind changed! What crime can he commit against Meimei? What do you think? Beheading, exile, or imprisonment? That's a felony, and it doesn't apply. If you remove the imperial order, They will be locked up in another courtyard and will never see the light of day, which is good!"

Lin Runan's eyes widened: "The other courtyard will keep you locked up and never see the light of day. That's good! You, what are your intentions?"

The corners of King Qi's lips rose: "What do you mean by my intentions? She will never see the light of day, and outsiders will not be able to see her. If I get her out, can she just change her name? How stupid!"

Lin Runan was not convinced: "That's all right? You must know that she has a mother, brother, sister-in-law, and son. Don't you recognize them?"

King Qi was silent for a moment: "Mother, brother-in-law, son, can you accompany her and protect her for the rest of her life?"

"They can't, can you?"

King Qi took a deep breath, turned around and stared at her: "What are you arguing with me? Why can't I?"

Lin Runan said calmly: "You can't! Because you are the king of Qi and she is a married woman, you can't marry her, and you can't give her a clear status! So, don't disturb her, she is not someone who has no opinions. , let her take her time and figure it out on her own, she knows what kind of life she wants!"

King Qi blushed with anger: "Ignorant woman, what do you know? The rules of the world are dead, but people are alive. Just make sure you know it in your heart! Does the matchmaker have to be married? I disturb her? Look at what she wants now." Life, can you want it?"

Lin Runan's eyes became confused: "You seem to be right...I don't know anymore, don't say anything! Let's go!"

King Qi walked forward angrily: "If it doesn't make sense to you, it's just stupid and not enlightened!"

Across a flower wall, Xu Junying and Meimei walked back and forth on the path. Xu Junying endured it a few times, and finally expressed his dissatisfaction:
"Meimei, you can't be like King Qi. You can't get close to each other, and you're still in front of Miss Lin and the girls. That's not good!"

Meimei walked forward without looking back: "What's the matter with us? Two friends went for a walk to see the scenery, and he just helped me, and did nothing. Are men and women kissing each other? I also saw you helping me through the village. Yulan, why can you?"

"That's different, that's my cousin, and Cousin Zhuang was unmarried at the time, but you are a married woman!"

Meimei stopped and looked back at him sneeringly: "Is my cousin my sister? Is it my sister? If you married her, wouldn't it be incest?"

Xu Junying gritted her teeth: "Stop talking nonsense!"

Meimei sighed: "In your place, men can marry multiple wives, take concubines, and touch unmarried women casually, but married women can't even touch unmarried men. What's wrong with this world? It's so unfair Already!"

Xu Junying couldn't help but laugh: "How do you want to be fair? One mountain can't accommodate two tigers. If there are two men in one family, how will we deal with it?"

"It's very simple. If I have two men, I will divide them into two homes, and one man will live in one..."

"Meme!"

Xu Junying stopped her: "Could it be that you, where you used to be like this?"

Seeing his blushing, Meimei burst out laughing, and still said in a cynical tone: "Yes! In our world, a woman can marry ten men and have ten families. She can live wherever she likes." Where to live. But men are not allowed, the law stipulates: If a man dares to have a second wife, he will be sentenced to that—beheaded!”

While Xu Junying was in a daze, she turned around and ran forward in a hurry, turned into a flower bush and covered her mouth, laughing until her stomach ached.Originally, he wanted to say that he was sentenced to the palace, but after thinking about it, it seemed too wicked, so he simply decided to do it.

Wiping the tears from laughing, Shi Shiran walked out of the flowers. Grandma's life is too boring. These people can talk to themselves and suppress her as they like, so she can't have fun?Playing tricks and not breaking the law, I'm afraid he's a bird!

A shadow stood in front of him, but Xu Junying still hadn't left.

"Have enough of laughing? Speech is useless, dare to talk nonsense, how can there be such a thing in the past and present? Do you think I will believe you? If you do this again in the future, just do it in front of me, but not in front of outsiders!"

Meimei lowered her eyes, trying to bypass him, but Xu Junying didn't let her go, stopped her, and said: "You are walking too slowly, I will lead you to hurry up!"

Meimei avoided him and hid her hands behind her back: "I'll go by myself, I don't want you to lead me! I'm not in a hurry to go, so what are you going to do so quickly?"

Xu Junying reached out and grabbed her hand easily: "Why are you not in a hurry? Heng'er was crying when I came back just now. King Qi and Miss Lin have already moved forward, and there will be guests coming soon!"

"Why is Heng'er crying? Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Meimei was dragged by him and walked quickly, shouting: "Stop!"

As soon as Xu Junying stopped, Meimei bumped into him, covered her nose with her hand, closed her eyes and frowned, Xu Junying hurriedly looked down at her: "Memei, did you hit him? Does it hurt? Let me see!"

Meimei paused for a while, then let go and pushed him away with all her strength: "It hurts to death! Xu Junying, do you know how to respect women? Am I an object, and I can walk away after dragging? Heng'er cried and shut you up." I’m willing to let him cry! What kind of shit guest of yours, go back to the Hou’s mansion to entertain yourself, it’s none of my business!”

Xu Junying looked at her blankly, as if she didn't know her: "Meimei, how can you talk like this? So rude!"

Meimei snorted twice: "Unbearably rude? No, no! My behavior can only be regarded as vulgar at best, and the real rudeness is yet to come! What kind of wine goes with what kind of food? A rude and reckless man like you can go with a woman like me." Very good! Are you dissatisfied? Go back to your residence, find a virtuous and elegant lady, and stop bothering me!"
