[Rebirth] Talking Fox

The emperor summoned Zhang Yuancai to be his son-in-law. After waking up, he was taken aback. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't remember why he made such a decision.In fact, as a husband-in-law, Zhang Yuancai is no worse than You Qing, but facing his precious daughter at that time, I am afraid it will be a headache.

The emperor was thinking about this matter in his heart, puzzled, but pretended nothing had happened on his face.When he looked at You Qing again, he felt an indescribable pity in his heart, he should have been rewarded with Shi Dou before, but he only took ten chicken legs to pass away, now he is recruiting a son-in-law, and he has been thrown out of the sky again.

The emperor loves his daughter very much, but he cherishes talents even more. At this moment, what he thinks in his heart is not how to comfort his daughter, but how to appease You Qing. In his eyes, You Qing is comparable to Xue Chang back then. Slack?Thinking of this, he quickly turned his head and whispered instructions to the person beside him.

Half an hour later, the banquet was coming to an end, a servant came forward with three imperial edicts in hand, the sound of silk and bamboo stopped, and everyone sat upright.

As for Sanding Jia, the tradition of all dynasties is to seal the official position directly after the roll call in the Golden Palace on the day when the list was unveiled, but for this emperor, he changed the rules and postponed the matter to the Luming Banquet. At this time, Eunuch Li The first imperial decree in his hand was for You Qing.

"By God's blessing, the emperor ordered that in the 48th year of Yuanchang, the number one scholar in the new discipline, You Qing, was well-versed in classics and history, well-versed in poetry and books, with outstanding literary talent, and was worthy of a great job. He was specially conferred the title of direct bachelor of the Imperial Academy, awarded the third rank by the official, and bestowed ten miles southwest of Yong'an Gate. A house, to show the emperor's favor, hereby!"

Before the lingering sound fell, the audience was stunned.

The number one scholar in the new department has always been conferred with the sixth rank of the Imperial Academy. Although there is no written rule, it has always been like this. It is extremely rare for the emperor to confer high officials because he likes it very much. The third rank, unexpectedly, You Qing is the third rank, and Long En among them can be seen!

You Qing was also a little bit taken aback, then quickly regained his composure, and thanked him.

Seeing his unmoving and unmoved attitude, the emperor felt even more satisfied and smiled happily.

You Qing returned to his seat, followed by No. [-] and Tanhua who took the orders. These two followed the historical rules. Officials worshiped the editor of the Imperial Academy, and they were seventh-rank, and they each got a house. It was not deliberately lowered.Although the official rank of the seventh rank is not high, being able to enter the Hanlin Academy is tantamount to reaching the sky in one step.

Some people looked at You Qing with sympathy when they saw Zhang Yuancai being recruited as a son-in-law before, but now they suddenly realized that the emperor really favored him, and if he didn't recruit a son-in-law, it turned out that he had a higher official position waiting.

You Qing's heart is like a bright mirror. In the previous life, he was treated the same as Xue Chang when he first entered the court. The official worship was from the third rank. In this life, he has been promoted by half a rank. I am afraid it was just a temporary change. Thinking of the reason, he couldn't help but look at Bai Li. glance.

Bai Li was already overjoyed. First, he solved the princess's troubles, and then saw his family's Aqing was appointed as an official. Although he didn't know what this awkward official name meant, the word "three grades" was very interesting. It is an honor to understand it.

You Qing looked at him like this, thought of what he had done just now, his eyes were doting but helpless, he sighed secretly in his heart, he didn't take the happy-looking Bai Li into his arms until he returned to the inn after the banquet, He said softly: "A Li, you said you had the ability to steal food from the palace, but today is the past? I got ten chicken legs, but one was missing for no reason, did you let me eat it?"

"Yeah!" Bai Li smiled and gnawed on his chin, grinning, "I forgot to tell you earlier, I know invisibility, and I've been by your side all the time, don't you know?"

You Qing saw the smug look on his face, and laughed along with him, and nodded cooperatively: "It turns out that the fox demon still has such abilities, A Li is really amazing."

Seeing him praise himself, Bai Li felt even happier, and couldn't help but told him everything about the day's events, but after he finished speaking, he found that his dark eyes were looking straight at him, and there was a hint of unease in his expression. Displeased, couldn't help being stunned.

You Qing raised his hand to hold his face, rubbed his thumbs gently between his beautiful eyebrows, and sighed softly: "A Li, how can you mess up the mandarin ducks? Other people's fate is their own, you and I They are all outsiders, how can they interfere at will?"

You Qing's tone was as gentle as his actions, but these words were obviously blaming him for doing something wrong, Bai Li stared at him with wide eyes, opened his mouth, and said, "Ah Qing, you are mine! Emperor, he wants to betroth the princess to you, I can't just watch you being snatched away!"

You Qing was silent all the way, seeing his expression of unwillingness and no shame, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and said after a while: "A Li, do you know that what you did today is exactly the same as the emperor? We don't need others to do what you and I do. Master, then why do you meddle in other people's affairs? You are a fox demon, so you naturally have the ability to confuse people's hearts, but can you confuse people for a while, and for a lifetime? The princess has no intention of making trouble for Zhang Yuan. To die of grief?"

Bai Li seemed to have suffered a blow to the head, and his face turned pale instantly. He looked at him with trembling lips, and said in a daze, "Ah Qing... you defend her?"

You Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, quickly hugged him, and kissed him on the side of the cheek: "Where are you going? How could I defend an irrelevant person? I'm just saying, you didn't do it right."

However, because of the sudden blow, Bai Li got into a dead end, broke him away, and his clear eyes were clouded with mist: "Ah Qing, you actually blamed me for her...what did I do wrong? They want to rob you, I'm not reconciled... It's hard for me to be with you..." Before he could finish speaking, he was already choked up.

You Qing suddenly made him cry until he broke his heart, took him into his arms again, and hugged him tightly: "A Li, I'm not blaming you, it's not right for the emperor to randomly refer to marriage regardless of other people's wishes, you disregarded the wishes of the princess and Zhang Yuancai. They are involved together, so naturally I can't say that you did the right thing."

"You said that what I did was wrong, so you blame me?" Bai Li raised his eyes and stared at him, with tears in his eyes, the more he thought about it, the more he felt wronged, the tears filled uncontrollably, choking and sobbing Sniffing his nose, he said, "I have waited for 1000 years to be with you. You were snatched away by the princess before, and now she is coming to snatch you..."

You Qing wiped the tears on his face distressedly, and thought: You are finally willing to tell me these grievances.On his face, he pretended to be surprised: "Ali, what are you talking about about 1000 years?"

Bai Li couldn't stop his tears. He was afraid that You Qing would feel guilty, so he never planned to tell those things. After all, his followers for several lifetimes were all his own wishful thinking, and You Qing didn't know anything about it. Can't stop, the more I think about it, the more wronged I feel, I hugged him tightly with both hands, weeping, and told him all the searching, missing, and following in my life.

Although You Qing knew it long ago, his heart hurts every time he thinks about it, let alone hearing him cry so sadly, he couldn't help kissing his face over and over again, his eyes were full of pain and pity: "A Li, I am the one who is sorry for you , stop crying."

Bai Li couldn't stop, and kept crying for as long as he talked. He had survived 1000 years, but now he became a crybaby. He probably always believed in his heart that he loved him, which is why he vented all his grievances so brazenly. .

This 1000-year event, even if the long story is short, will take a long time.In the middle of the night, after Bai Li had finished speaking, his tears had dried up, his voice became lower and lower, and finally he couldn't resist his tiredness, so he fell asleep.

You Qing carried him to the couch, wiped his face and body for him, and put a hot towel on his eyes. I don't know if his eyes will be swollen into walnuts when he wakes up tomorrow morning. He feels pity and pain in his heart, but after waiting for so long, Finally, after all his confessions, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

"A Li, it's time for you to tell me the truth." You Qing held him in his arms, brushed the hair from his forehead, leaned over to kiss him, and said in a low voice, "I should have to bear these things. , it’s good to say it.”

The next day, before dawn, Bai Li woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he bumped into You Qing's dark eyes. After a moment of confusion, he remembered everything from last night, pouted, turned around and turned his back angrily. to him.

You Qing hugged him from behind, kissed the back of his slender and fair neck, and said softly: "A Li, are you angry with me?"

Bai Li never hid his emotions, and he became even angrier after hearing what he said. He kicked his feet on the bed and didn't speak.

You Qing was most afraid that he would be sad, seeing that he was only focused on being angry at this moment, knowing that his mood had almost recovered, she forced him to come over and kissed him on the eyelashes: "A Li, can you stop being angry?"

Bai Li sniffled: "You scolded me last night, I'm going to be angry!"

Seeing him like this, You Qing couldn't help laughing, rubbed the tip of his nose affectionately, and said softly: "Fool, why would I scold you? I just want you to think about it, you don't think there is anything wrong with arranging the fate of others , if others arrange our fate for us, would you be willing?"

Bai Li rolled his eyelids and muttered, "I'm not reconciled."

"That's right, if you are not reconciled, how can others be reconciled?"

"I don't care, Ah Qing is already with me, and I will never give you up to others in the future. No one will interfere with us, I don't care about other people's affairs!"

You Qing sighed softly: "How do you know that no one will interfere with us?"

"I'm a demon! As long as I don't give in, what can ordinary people do to me?" Bai Li said with full confidence, while declaring his right to possess, he rubbed against his neck fiercely.

You Qing closed his eyes and hugged him tightly: It's not just ordinary people who want to interfere with us in this world?If it weren't for the hard-won companionship between you and me, why should I care about these things?I have suffered a lot from it, so I naturally don't want to see others accept other people's arrangements against their will, and just push myself and others.

You Qing stopped talking, but silently sighed in his heart.Bai Li fell asleep, and his mind was cleared up a little bit, but he took the initiative to reflect on his chest, let him grab it, raised his head and said: "Ah Qing, I asked the emperor to give the princess to you. Zhang Yuancai, did you really do something wrong?"

You Qing looked at him with a smile: "It's not a mistake, it's just that the method is not right."

"Huh?" Bai Li looked confused.

"To bring the two of them together so abruptly is to be a matchmaker. If they like each other, the matchmaker will not be wrong." You Qing is not a saint, so naturally he would not be so kind as to stop Bai Li, but would do him a favor To make matters worse, he just hoped that Bai Li would change his ways.

Bai Li was a little confused.

You Qing smiled and pinched his nose: "Yesterday, when I congratulated Zhang Yuancai, I found out that he didn't make any marriage arrangements. Seeing the shame and joy in his eyes, I guess he is very satisfied with the princess. .Maybe at first he also thought that the emperor would recruit me to be his son-in-law, so he was a little surprised when he received the order, not because he didn't want to be Princess Shang."

Bai Li's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Of course it's true, the princess is so charming, no one would be unwilling to marry her." After speaking, You Qing saw him staring at him, showing faint signs of anger, and smiled, "I'm talking about someone else."

Bai Li hummed and nodded.

Seeing his appearance, You Qing thought it was funny, and said: "Zhang Yuancai has a good temperament and literary talent. If the princess hadn't chosen me first, it would not be impossible for her to fall in love with him. Since you can confuse people's minds, why don't you let the princess take me for granted? I'm expelled from my mind? As long as she doesn't miss me, no matter whether they succeed or not, you don't have to worry about it anymore, do you?"

Bai Li opened his mouth wide when he heard this, and finally realized something, and nodded again and again: "Why didn't I think of that!"

"That's why I said you didn't do it right. You idiot started to cry without listening to me." You Qingyu laughed teasingly, but actually felt distressed.

Bai Li made him feel embarrassed and wrinkled his nose: "Then I will erase everyone's memory about the imperial decree."

In terms of deceiving people's hearts, this is the housekeeping skill of the fox clan, especially the nine-tailed fox is best at it, but gods can't do it.As for techniques like erasing memory, You Qing would actually know it, but of course he wasn't going to do it himself, otherwise there would be no need to spend a lot of time trying to reason with Bai Li.

Seeing him nodding his head in agreement, Bai Li finally saw the light of day, hugging him and giggling: "Ah Qing is still smart, we will feel guilty if we tie them together. If they see the right thing, then we don't care about it." It's over!"

"Then you still say that I protect others?"

"Hmm..." Bai Li coquettishly rubbed against him, shaking his head.

After the cup of tea, from the emperor down to the common people, except for the instigator, no one remembers the recruitment of a son-in-law. The emperor just appreciates You Qing's talent, and the princess doesn't remember that she secretly saw You Qing during the palace examination. The dance at the Lu Ming Banquet seems to be really just for fun.

On the other hand, Zhang Yuancai, after seeing the princess's sword dance, really couldn't forget it, but his character was dull and he knew his status was low, so he never showed it.
