General, you are being naughty

In the past few days, there have been rumors in the capital that the flirtatious General Jian, in order to please the prime minister's daughter, put dozens of sky lanterns on the bluestone slab bridge next to the prime minister's mansion the night before, together with Bai Yue It was also criticized, no matter how outsiders gossip, one simply ignores what the general did as boring, and the other teases with disgusting thoughts.

The left minister, Bai Hua, had a sad old face and sighed all day long. He lost his mind for a while, so he found the courtyard of Bai Yue's residence, blew his beard and stared at him: "Daddy came to ask you, the general has repeatedly shown his kindness to you." , Those people who come to the door every day to talk about matchmaking are actually bullying and fearing the hard, and they have never come to the door again. If this continues, your reputation will be damaged, and who will dare to come to the door to propose marriage in the future, what should I do?"

Bai Yue frowned: "My daughter just ignore it." Prime Minister Zuo shook his head violently when he heard it: "Even if you ignore it, the general will not just let it go." They were not sure, and they were all guessing whether he had surrendered to the Queen Mother. He was often ridiculed by the right minister in the court meeting, and he responded very well.

She knocked on the table, pondered for a while, and then said: "Father, what do you think of the Queen Mother?"

Prime Minister Zuo looked at her in surprise, and then his face darkened: "The Empress Dowager is not a simple woman. She has been in charge of the government for five years, and most officials in the court are headed by her."

Bai Yue bit her lips: "The Empress Dowager firmly controls the regime, and the little saint is just a puppet, at her mercy."

Prime Minister Zuo nodded: "Not bad."

"Daddy thinks that the little sage can beat the queen mother?" Bai Yue's mouth curled up, "I don't think the queen mother will lose."

The court is full of intrigues, officials form cliques, and there is a miasma in the upper and lower levels. If he hadn't been able to get things right and wrong, he would have been squeezed into a bump. These days, the little saint seems to be restless, and from time to time he confronts the queen mother at the court meeting Come, secretly wanting to win me over again.

The Left Prime Minister sighed deeply: "I'm not afraid of Yue'er, you're making fun of me. My father suddenly envied the general. She can be regarded as a burden relieved, and she lives so easily and comfortably. But the old man, who has been an official for dozens of years, has no respect for fame and fortune." I have long looked down on it, but I can’t keep you safe, if you make a wrong step, everything will be irreparable.”

The queen mother and the little sage are really difficult to decide.

Breaking it down, there is the matter of the great general and Su Hong, one is the younger brother of the queen mother, and the other is the right-hand man of the little saint, the son of the right minister.

After thinking about it for a while, Prime Minister Zuo seemed to be very troublesome...

"The general and Su Hong...you..."

Her old father was looking at her with longing and encouraging eyes. Bai Yue's scalp felt numb for a while, and she curled her lips: "General... my daughter doesn't recognize me."

Zuo Xiang lost his voice: "You choose the general?"

The general is equivalent to the queen mother...

"Father, although I don't participate in the affairs of the court, don't forget that I also often walk around the holy palace." Bai Yue looked extremely unwilling, and said helplessly: "The tiger amulet is in the hands of the Queen Mother, and she is in charge of the Datong Kingdom 20 troops, not to mention that the imperial guards inside and outside the Holy Palace are all her people. My father also said just now that most of the officials in the court follow the queen mother's lead. My father believes that the little saint can rely on a right-hand man Is there any big wave coming out under the eyes of the Queen Mother?"

What Zuo Xiang had been insisting on in his heart collapsed little by little, as if he had regained that bit of faith, he was very unwilling to say: "Even so, the little sage is still the legitimate master of the world."

Bai Yue was noncommittal: "Father, you are too worried about the authorities."

"What about Su Hong? What about you?" Zuo Xiang blurted out, seeing his daughter's complexion turned ugly, he panicked for a moment, "Father knows you don't like the general." Zuo Xiang gritted his teeth, his expression full Showing an attitude of daring: "If you really like that Su Hong, daddy will lose this old life—"

Bai Yue calmed down and comforted her father: "It's okay, let's see how the situation develops, it's not too late to make plans."

Prime Minister Zuo said solemnly, "Forget it."

Not long after the conversation ended, Bai Han hurriedly looked for her, saying that he was out of the house for entertainment. Bai Yue was in a complicated and depressed mood, so Bai Han acted like a baby, so she went too.

There was only a courtyard with only flowers and plants, and two young women entered, but when they came out, they turned into beautiful faces.young man.

Bai Han took Bai Yue's hand, and sneaked out the back door, and he let out a sigh of relief as he stroked his chest: "Sister, it's all because you look so imaginative, every time you go out, don't you cover yourself up?" A veil is a woman disguised as a man."

"In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it's safer to go out disguised as a man." Bai Yue lifted up the folding fan with a smile, and tapped her on the head lightly, "Okay, don't you want to go to the cockfight, don't leave again It's time to leave."

This younger sister of hers doesn't like female celebrity, doesn't like the complicated and restrictive etiquette, doesn't like the unchanging life, especially loves to play and play, she always has to run outside after a short stay, she can't control it, she doesn't want to be restrained every day, but it's okay Live comfortably.

When he often went out to play, Bai Han would take her with him, fearing that she would get bored at home, which also brought her a lot of fun. No, I can't be idle today, and I want her to accompany me out to play.

This cockfight is a forbidden entertainment in the same capital, and the field they are going to is an extremely hidden place.

The gate is nothing like ordinary people's homes, and there are two sturdy men standing there. When they saw them, they stretched out their hands to stop them. This is not the first time Bai Han has come here. Bronze medals are released only after being appraised by the big man. This is to prevent the government from elaborating. The distribution of bronze medals is very strict. You must pay a deposit of 50 taels of silver to receive them. Those who can sell 50 taels are all people who are either rich or expensive.

Enter through the door, and then go around a huge screen. It is as if the sky and the earth are clearly separated inside and out. The wide courtyard and Nuo Da's venue surround a big arena. Many people have gathered under the stage, and the noise is endless.

There are two types of cockfighting activities in the same capital. One is where the dealer chooses a cockfight to play in person. You can fight with the dealer or with the players. You can win or lose with a pair of eyes. If the banker pays five times, if you lose, you will pay double the bet, but if you fight with the player, you can only bet on the bet.

Therefore, many people will choose to fight with the dealer, winning five times and losing twice, which sounds like a good deal.The other is to bet, choose the number to bet, and the win is double the silver bet.

"Xiao Han, are you betting today or Dou Zhuang?" Bai Yue waved the folding fan, watching the lively scene with interest, and was moved by the atmosphere, she actually felt eager to try.

Bai Han said confidently: "Old rules, I'm Dou Zhuang, you bet, sister, don't worry, this time we will return with a full reward, and kill him without leaving any pieces!"

"You, don't be playful and cause trouble."

"I know. I'll go to the backyard first to pick a more aggressive baby. Sister, remember that the number is ten, so don't make a wrong bet!" Bai Han ran away as soon as he finished speaking.

Bai Yue pursed her lips, went to bet on numbers ten and twenty, and then waited for Bai Han to come back. It was not the first time she came, maybe it was bad luck, and she would lose completely every time. Fortunately, she placed the bet It's not big, and if you lose, you lose.

Little did she know, there was a probing gaze closely following her, the owner of that gaze was shocked at first, and then there was a trace of meaning that it came without effort.

Xia Mo pushed the Jianjin that had been standing on the stone steps for a long time, called her, and immediately followed her gaze. It turned out that the general was looking at a fair and clean young man... The burning eyes of the general, It's like dry wood meeting a raging fire... Could it be that the general has not married a wife for many years, but he has broken his sleeves... At the end of summer, he felt cold, and suddenly felt a cold wind blowing from his back.

"Look at that man in front, who does he look like?" Jian Jin asked him in a low voice.

Xia Mo looked again, flipped through the memories in his mind, and shook his head: "I've never seen him before."

Jian Jin gave him a blank look. She had never seen Bai Yue in men's clothes, no wonder everyone said that Bai Yue seldom went out, and she couldn't recognize him when he was dressed up. If she hadn't seen Bai Yue's face, I'm afraid he won't recognize that the handsome young man in front of him is a woman.

How could she appear here alone, tsk tsk, it seems that the rumored her doesn't fit her at the moment, she tilted her head and thought for a while, and then she showed a smile that looked like an idiot at the end of summer.

At the end of Xia trembling: "Master, you can't be a broken sleeve..."

Upon hearing this, Jian Jin suppressed his voice and scolded: "Qi, when did I cut off my sleeve, didn't you see that she is a woman!"

At the end of Xia, she was stunned, and looked again. She had delicate skin, a woman's delicate face, a clean neck without an Adam's apple, a thin figure, and a slightly raised chest...

"It turned out to be a woman. I said how can there be a man who is as white as a woman so scary." Xia Mo suddenly realized, rolled his eyes, and asked with a smile, "Could it be that the general has taken a fancy to this woman?"

Jian Jin didn't take it too seriously, and told him the truth straightforwardly: "Qi, she is Bai Yue."

At this moment, Xia Mo was really taken aback for a moment: "Why is she dressed in such a weird way..." The most important thing is how can she go in and out of this kind of occasion, at a glance, the yard is full of all old men them.

"Master, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Xia Mo smirked at her, and added at the end: "Now you don't need to climb over the wall."

"No, we don't do anything today, we just follow her and see what she does!" Jian Jin is not afraid of being discovered by her, because Bai Yue has never seen herself before, and she has bet just now, so she is clearly here to play .

Bai Yue appeared here, could it be that Bai Han is also there?

Driven by curiosity, Jian Jin really sat on the chair next to Bai Yue, and she lost interest in the cockfighting that she used to love.
