wait for another year

The children of the gentry have a strict family style, such as the Zhao family in Yingchuan who are so arrogant and self-retaining, most of the children are still boys when they get married.It was the first time to share the bed with someone else, Zhao Xu only felt extremely weird, and subconsciously leaned against the side of the couch, not wanting to disturb other people's good sleep.

Xuanyuan Hui was very considerate, he lay down inside and made a large space for him, "Since Emperor Guanglie came down, there have been good stories about monarchs and ministers sleeping on their feet in ancient times. Now that I think about it, it's just that convenient for us to get married. , It’s inconvenient to talk about it in detail during the day, but we can discuss it at night.” Zhao Xu stretched his body, and said with emotion: “The wine pool and meat forest, the high bed and warm pillows, I can now reach the sky in one step, all thanks to the glory of the prince.”

"Maybe a warm pillow on a high bed, but as for the wine pool and meat forest," Xuanyuan Hui sneered, "What is a great place for you to go to Suzhou? I'm afraid you won't get it in the future, and you will have to suffer hunger and hardship with me."

Zhao Xu yawned, "Marry a chicken like a chicken, marry a dog like a dog, don't worry, my lord, my minister is very virtuous."

Just as Xuanyuan Hui was about to reply, he found that the breathing of the person beside him had calmed down, and he was actually fast asleep.

Forcibly marrying a noble and innocent family member into the door, will he resent and hate, or will he be obedient and rebellious; will he complain about himself, or will he protect himself and reject others thousands of miles away?

He had envisioned various situations before, but he was wrong about the person in front of him.

Xuanyuan Hui hesitated for a while, but turned sideways to face Zhao Xu.

This king is looking forward to the day when I can entrust the vest to you.

As soon as it was daylight, they were on their way again.

Xuanyuan Hui closed his eyes and rested his mind, while Zhao Xu was reading the book of stories with great energy, laughing out loud from time to time.

"Did you not sleep well last night?" After half an hour, Zhao Xu put the script aside.

Xuanyuan Hui opened his eyes, noncommittal, "It's okay."

The faint light penetrated through the bamboo curtains, showing traces of imprints on Xuanyuan's dark face, and the round face that was still somewhat youthful looked dim.

Zhao Xu stretched out his hand to hang up all the curtains, and the sun suddenly poured into the car.

Xuanyuan Hui was startled: "You!"

"My lord has never been out of the capital, has he?" Zhao Xu looked outside with his chin resting on his shoulders, "Look, although it doesn't look like spring, the scenery in summer is also beautiful."

Xuanyuan Hui followed his gaze and saw that it was just a straight official road made of loess, with occasional weeds growing on the side of the road, so he couldn't help raising his eyebrows to look at him.

"Although I'm a commoner, I've been lucky enough to enter the palace a few times. It's true that the scenery can't compare to Taiye Pond, let alone the Penglai Pavilion with thousands of rooms." Zhao Xu said slowly, "And this weed is better than the palace. Speaking of the peonies, peaches and plums in the imperial garden, it can be said to be humble. But I still feel that the scenery along the way is so beautiful that I have never seen it in my life. Does the prince know why?"

Unknown birds soared across the sky, singing melodiously.

"If one day the prince fulfills his wish and returns to the walls of the Sifang Palace in Chang'an, will he remember the vastness of the sky and sea today?"

Xuanyuan Hui seemed to be smiling, and ordered Shouning to hang up the curtain on his side, "The son of my Xuanyuan family, whoever is not raised in the hands of a woman and has been tempered, who doesn't want to fight eight battles?" Desolation, leveling the world? But even if one day you are destined to be trapped in the deep palace, as long as you have the world in your heart, why don't you see the world in your eyes?"

Zhao Xu had a deep meaning, "The most important thing... is to have the world in your hands."

The two looked at each other and laughed together.

No matter how good the scenery is, there are times when you get tired of looking at it, and you can only talk about it after a long journey.

Before they knew it, the two of them had already talked quite speculatively, and the topic changed from an innocuous trial to a big plan.

When they arrived in Qizhou, Xuanyuan Hui proposed to rest on the spot for two days, put the brigade in the post station, and then went out for a walk with Zhao Xu in micro-clothes.

Although the Qi Dynasty has always been based on agriculture, it does not suppress merchants too much, so this road is endless. The further to the northwest, the more merchants come and go, and there are many red-haired and green-eyed Hu merchants.

"Silang's description, we say that he is a businessman, and no one will believe it."

Xuanyuan Hui was originally a half Huihe, but today he was wearing a Hu suit, and he seemed unexpectedly harmonious among the Hu merchants in the city.

"Why don't you talk about Jiujiu Lang," Xuanyuan Hui didn't put on the airs of a prince even though he was in a modest suit, "What should we sell to make a lot of money?"

Zhao Xu knew that he had been worrying about his livelihood after he arrived in Suzhou, so he didn't point it out, "Rouge and gouache? Hairpin hairpins and hairpins? Silk and satin? I suddenly remembered that my grandmother gave me a lot when I got married, why don't I give Jingfu a lot of money?" Are the hairpins and gold octagonal bracelets sold?"

Xuanyuan Hui gave him a rather helpless look. When there are many people with mixed eyes, Zhao Xu always looks gentle and jade-like. Some people in Beijing even praised him as Xiazi Yueyun.Who would have thought that in private, he would talk and laugh freely, even when he was in the mood, he would be shameless, impatient, and shameless?

"If it's just the one hundred and ten people, this business is enough to make ends meet." Xuanyuan frowned, "But what about ten thousand people, or even 10 people?"

Suddenly, Zhao Xu's eyes lit up, and he walked towards a squatting trafficker with great interest, and said vaguely: "When that day comes, I will have my own remedy. At worst, I will fight and rob like a barbarian, and I will never miss it." It's a big deal for your lord."

Xuanyuan Hui followed behind, angrily said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, now it's just you and me, but you're making fun of me with 'concubines' and 'lords' one by one, thanks to the fact that you are two years older than me , is there a brother like you?"

"Oh? Your lord is going to revive your husband's principles?" Zhao Xu seemed to have taken a fancy to a broken sword, and said to the dealer, "50 taels of gold, do you want to sell it or not?"

Fifty taels of gold is equivalent to a year's salary for a third-rank official!

Xuanyuan Hui was startled at first, but guessing that Zhao Xu must have something to do later, he just watched coldly from the sidelines.

"I thought I had some knowledge, but I am blind." The trafficker raised his head, his appearance was extremely stern, and there was a hideous scar under the corner of his eye.

Zhao Xu shook his head slightly, "Fifty gold a year, you come with me."

The trafficker gave him a sideways look, "That's all?"

Zhao Xu leaned over to look at him, and said softly, "I'll give you any money you want, even...give me some time, and I can get Anxi Steel."

The trafficker was a little moved, Zhao Xu took a step back and made a long bow.Seeing Xuanyuan Hui stunned aside, she quickly tugged him, and the latter saluted as if he had just woken up from a dream.

"Forget it," the trafficker carried the broken sword on his shoulder and patted the dust off his body, "Ou Xuan."

Zhao Xu smiled slyly, "Then this sword is for us?"

Ou Xuan gave him a disgusted look, snorted, and didn't know whether to agree or not.

"Shou'an, guide this brother Ou to the official post." Xuanyuan Hui watched Ou Xuan go away, frowned at Zhao Xu, "Do you know his origin?"

Zhao Xu laughed, "The heavenly secret must not be revealed."

Xuanyuan Hui saw his expression and knew that he was just a mistake, and he was not fully sure, so he couldn't help pointing at his nose, and said bitterly: "Prodigal!"
