The Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness of Crossing

You have filled too much yellow soup!Still protecting the big matchmaker, trying to offend my aunt... Yuan Cuixiao became more and more annoyed as she thought about it, and from anger to anger, she gradually strengthened her hands, and only heard a slight "creaking" sound, and the cup in her palm was crushed violently. A crack was opened, causing her to withdraw her hand, and there was another crisp "crack" sound, and it fell to the ground, shattering into glass pieces.

Everyone's eyes swept towards her again.

Zhao Jue looked displeased and said, "Don't you have a life fight? You're used to breaking things."

Yuan Cuixiao was unhappy in her heart, and when she was reprimanded by him again, she simply paralyzed and said: "Yes. I don't have a single bucket in my hand."

"You," Zhao Jue was too lazy to argue with her, and waved his hand outward, "Go down, go down. Go back to your garden and copy the gift list."

Yuan Cuixiao replied loudly: "Yes!" She grabbed the gift list handed over by the attendant, and left the table without greeting everyone.

Be the father's mediator, and be the daughter's sabotage.Although all the people present are good people, it is impossible to guess which song the father and daughter are singing at this moment.The room became quiet again.

Zhao Jue also worked hard to warm up the scene, and continued to blackmail his daughter, saying: "This child, the older he gets, the more outrageous he is! She has suffered a head injury and has a surly temper. Don't be as knowledgeable as her."

Everyone felt even more strange: it is strange enough for this father to expose his daughter's faults whenever he meets anyone.

Yuan Cuixiao heard it from afar, and her nose was about to turn out of anger, and she suddenly remembered that Ding Zhaohui hadn't replied yet after the disturbance just now!Then he turned around hastily, ran to a nearby leaky flower wall, bent his knees and squatted halfway, peeping every move on the mat from the gap between the lattices.

Only Zhao Jue said kindly: "Young Master Ding, have you considered it?"

As Ding Zhaohui stood up slowly, Yuan Cuixiao raised her heart in her throat.But seeing him leave his seat and walking towards the arena, Yuan Cuixiao saw that he was heading in the direction of Jin Hui, he couldn't help feeling anxious: Brat!Are you rushing to meet your father-in-law...

Ding Zhaohui stood still, gave a deep salute, and said in a loud voice: "My lord is very kind, I appreciate it. It's just that the elder brother Jiaci is still here, so I don't dare to decide on matters of marriage."

Yuan Cuixiao's hanging heart fell back into her stomach again.Looking angrily at Zhao Jue: You will be slapped in the face this time for making you mess up the red line...

Zhao Jue was slightly taken aback, but the smile remained on his face: "Mr. Ding is very filial, but this king is rude. It might as well, the future will be long."

The banquet was about to end, Yuan Cuixiao suddenly found that Shen Zhongyuan was missing, she couldn't help but wonder: where did Master go?Suddenly, someone behind her patted her on the shoulder, she turned around in astonishment, immediately showed joy, and said softly: "Master?"

Shen Zhongyuan put up a finger, leaned against his lips and made a silent gesture, signaling her to walk on a side path.

The two walked to a relatively secluded place, Shen Zhongyuan stopped and said: "Bring me the gift list and have a look."

"Here." Yuan Cuixiao handed it to him.

Shen Zhongyuan looked at it carefully for a while, then handed it back to her: "Okay."

Yuan Cuixiao asked in bewilderment: "What are you doing with this?"

Shen Zhongyuan replied: "Just keep it in mind, if you encounter the truth, you will know it in your heart."

Yuan Cuixiao looked at him in surprise: "What does Master mean?" After thinking about it, she couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat, and exclaimed, "Could it be..."

"It's just speculation." Shen Zhongyuan interrupted her, "What do you think, you must rot in your stomach, even if it's a dream, don't say it." Glancing at her, he said, "Don't be so reckless like today. "

Yuan Cuixiao's face flushed slightly, and she concealed it and said: "Is it difficult to be a vegetarian! You all eat delicious food, envy and jealous for a while, and accidentally dropped the cup."

Shen Zhongyuan cast his gaze over, as if looking into her heart: "Really?"

Yuan Cuixiao blushed a little, and said awkwardly, "Why isn't it true..."

There was a look of worry between Shen Zhongyuan's eyebrows: "Ding Erxia from Mohua Village is my friend, and you must have known him before."

Yuan Cuixiao's heart was shaken, knowing that she couldn't hide it, she said angrily: "So what if you know it? Master has seen it too, it's better not to know it."

Shen Zhongyuan was even more worried, he sighed and said: "You pretended not to remember, but he really forgot."

"What did you say?!" Yuan Cuixiao, as if struck by lightning, was terrified of pain in his chest, and asked like a cannonball, "He really lost his memory?! When did it happen? But why did he recognize Jin Mudan?!"

Shen Zhongyuan comforted her and said: "Calm down, don't forget your own situation, what's the use of being impatient."

Yuan Cuixiao let out a "huh" and said in a daze, "Master, do you know why...why he would..." The word "like this" was choked in his throat, but it was hard to say it.

Shen Zhongyuan looked at her worriedly and said: "On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I bumped into the second brother of the Ding family twice on the Fenqing Bridge and the river embankment. After talking with him, I learned that he went to the Liao territory a few months ago. On the way, he suffered from a seasonal epidemic and his life was in danger. Fortunately, brother Zhihua arrived in time and took him to Daxiangguo Temple for treatment. Although his life was saved, why did he go to Liaojing and what did he do? I can't remember how."

After Yuan Cuixiao listened in a daze, her thoughts drifted back to that rainy night under Muye Mountain.On the roof of the inn, Ding Zhaohui's words "I will forget you" in her ear hit her heart hard like a heavy hammer.After standing there in a daze for a while, he said in a trembling voice, "God...will...God..."

Seeing her self-pitying appearance, Shen Zhongyuan was puzzled. He was afraid that she was going to give up on herself, so he spoke provocatively: "I thought that a young lady is as free and easy as a man. Looking at it now, I am still blind and too high-spirited." It's up to you."

Yuan Cuixiao couldn't hear the anti-general meaning in his words, and thought to himself: How can you think highly of me?He clearly underestimated the thickness of our skins... He snorted softly and said, "I'm so proud. According to me, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine feet come from wine and meat. I eat vegetables and swallow chaff every day, so my energy is naturally low. "

Shen Zhongyuan couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said: "Why don't I treat you to a good meal for the teacher?"

Yuan Cuixiao's spirit perked up: "Do you want meat?"

Shen Zhongyuan nodded: "Sweet meat."

"Which restaurant should I go to?" Yuan Cuixiao looked hopeful.

Every time I take it out, there will be troubles.I really can't go to a crowded place... "Hmm..." Shen Zhongyuan pondered slightly, "I have a small courtyard in Xianshan, west of the city. You go there at noon, and I'll cook some for you to eat."

"Good! Good!" Yuan Cuixiao nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "Is the yard at the foot of the mountain, or the top of the mountain?"

Shen Zhongyuan replied: "On the mountainside, there is a row of pine trees in front of the door."

"It's a deal!" Yuan Cuixiao stomped her feet and said, "I'll go back and copy the gift list. Master, go out and buy vegetables! Don't forget to buy a pot of good wine." After saying that, he walked quickly to the garden go.

Shen Zhongyuan watched her back disappear at the end of the corridor, feeling a little lost in his heart.

Back in the couple's garden, Yuan Cuixiao was willing to follow Zhao Jue's instructions honestly, spend a lot of time copying the gift list, called Xia Chan to the study, read one by one, memorized one by one, and wrote perfunctorily to deal with errands.

"A celadon narcissus basin with ice cracks; a pair of Dingyao jade pots and spring vases; a Dingyao crane playing fish water injection."

After recording more than ten pieces of porcelain in a row, Yuan Cuixiao couldn't help slandering: This old emperor is always looking for trouble, the mountains are high and the road is far away, what is the meaning of you taking such fragile items as birthday presents?When she was distracted, she didn't hear the name Xia Chan reported, so she yelled, "Oh, what's the matter with the crane? What are you doing so fast? I don't even have time to write!"

"Crane play swim fish water note one." Xia Chan repeated every word, and muttered in a low voice, "Little lady thought the servant girl was slow in reading at first."

Yuan Cuixiao said convincingly: "The name before is easier to pronounce than yours now. If there are few strokes, you can pronounce it faster, and if there are many strokes, you should pronounce it slowly. Measure measures according to local conditions, understand?"

"Oh." Xia Chan responded, and then read, "Bird, bird..."

"What the hell is the bird, hurry up." Yuan Cuixiao frowned.

Xia Chan replied in embarrassment: "My maidservant doesn't recognize this word."

It's scary to be uneducated... Yuan Cuixiao stretched out her hand: "Let me see it!"

Xia Chan handed over the list, pointed to one of the words, and asked, "Little lady, how do you pronounce this?"

Yuan Cuixiao took a look and was dumbfounded, she couldn't recognize herself, so she faltered and said: "Bird, bird..."

Xia Chan asked curiously, "What are you, little lady?"

Yuan Cuixiao sighed softly, and said, "I don't know what a bird is either."

After about an hour of copying, I finally finished transcribing.Yuan Cuixiao rubbed her sore shoulders and thought to herself: This trip is really full of food and clothing, enough to open a grocery store.It's just that no matter how much kindness and power the emperor bestows, it can't extinguish his uncle's heart of rebellion... Early the next morning, she took the copied gift list and went to the king of Xiangyang to pay a business, entered the study, and went down, respectfully He called "Father" respectfully, and stood aside.

Zhao Jue took the copied gift list, casually flipped through two pages, shook his head and said, "Your handwriting has not improved at all."

Yuan Cuixiao lowered her eyebrows and said sympathetically: "Daughter has been busy with needlework these days, so she doesn't read much, and she doesn't practice handwriting too much. I hope foster father won't be offended."

"Really?" Zhao Jue raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a tone of disbelief.

"Yes... yes." Yuan Cuixiao answered bravely.

Zhao Jue's slender fingers tapped on the red sandalwood book case, making a "dumb" sound: "But the needlework is not too much."

"Forgot...forgot to hand it in." Yuan Cuixiao glanced at him guiltily, "In my garden, I embroidered a lot there."

Zhao Jue put the original gift list in his sleeve, stood up and said, "Remember to make it up next time."

Yuan Cuixiao responded with a bitter face: "Okay..."

Zhao Jue bypassed the book case, walked up to her, took her hand and said, "Go out with me, my father."

broken!Being led away by this fake father, how could he still go to Xianshan to attend the appointment with his master... Yuan Cuixiao asked anxiously: "Where is the father-in-law taking his daughter?"

Zhao Jue dragged her along and said, "Didn't it be agreed during the dinner yesterday that the gift list should be sent back after transcribing it. Let's go to the prefect's yamen together with Weifu."

Yuan Cuixiao felt 1 times unhappy, and groaned, "What is there to do in the prefect's yamen? That old man Jin Hui is suffocating to death. Every time my daughter sees him, she feels as if she owes him eight hundred taels of money." of."

"Old man Jin Hui?" Zhao Jue looked at her with great interest, "He doesn't seem to be a few years older than my father."

"Really?!" Yuan Cuixiao feigned surprise, "Father looks much younger than him."

As the saying goes, thousands of wears and thousands of wears, flattery does not wear.Zhao Jue was in a good mood, nodded and said: "Old man Jin is not only a boring gourd, but also as stubborn as a donkey. Don't pay attention to him, let's go and see Jin Mudan and that Mr. Ding."
