Chapter 173 Rare and Famous Flowers

Since the assassination of Zhao Ji's court meetings have become less and less. Sometimes every three days, sometimes every five days, the king does not pay early, and more time is spent on practicing Taoism, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and yin and yang.

Since Gao Qiu went there, he hasn't played Cuju for a long time. Suddenly he remembered playing Cuju, so he summoned Zhao Hao into the palace.

As soon as Zhao Hao stepped into the arch of Yanfu Palace, he saw Zhao Fujin actually led a group of little princes fishing - the pool was full of precious koi, and shook his head without realizing it.

"Brother Hao!" Zhao Fujin suddenly turned around and saw Zhao Hao. He immediately showed a brilliant smile on his face, shouted crisply, and waved to Zhao Hao desperately.

Zhao Hao smiled and waved at her, saying hello.

After more than half a year, the little princess also changed a lot. The innocent, lively and cute little girl grew up with her age and experienced the hunting ground assassination incident, which made her grow up. She had more worries and quiet people. The first love made her transform and mature again.

After not seeing each other for more than a month, Zhao Hao discovered that the little princess had undergone earth-shaking changes. Now she has transformed into an elegant and quiet lady from a noble family.

Hearing the sound, the little princess turned their eyes to each other. After discovering Zhao Hao, they rushed over again. They stopped watching fishing and shouted, "Brother Hao, I want to watch the kicking Cuju!"

Zhao Hao's expression changed, and he turned around and ran away: "I will go to Cuju venue for competition according to Your Majesty's order. If you want to see it, go there to watch it."

After saying that, he ran away like a gust of wind, for fear of being surrounded by the little princesses, and not being able to escape without performing a "fresh" for an hour.

Zhao Fujin looked at Zhao Hao's slightly embarrassed back and couldn't help laughing, laughing very happily.

Why, every time I see Brother Hao, I am very happy. Even if I like my father the most, it is hard to feel this kind of happiness...

Zhao Fujin waved his hand with a smile: "Let's go, go to Cuju venue to see Brother Hao."

In Cuju Field, this time, Zhao Hao and Zhao Ji were the heads of the ball respectively and started a fierce battle. The two sides fought back and forth, and fought for four points in total, but it took more than an hour to finally enter the fifth level.

The loser will be punished with whipping and white powder on the head. This last one is no longer meaningful. Zhao Hao kicked it back and forth a few times. Seeing that Zhao Ji was exhausted, he pretended to kick it away and the game ended.

The winning Zhao Ji gasped heavily, took the clean cloth handed over by the eunuch and wiped the sweat, and tacitly refused to mention the punishment.

However, Zhao Fujin and the little princesses in the seats in the east were all unhappy, yelling that their father was foolish, and then scattered with Zhao Fujin.

However, when Zhao Fujin was about to walk to the gate of the hall, he suddenly looked here. His eyes were so resentful and so hot. His eyes were full of love, and he wrapped around Zhao Hao's body in circles, and he couldn't cut it, and he was still messy...

After playing Cuju and sweating all over, Zhao Ji seemed very happy and pulled Zhao Hao into the inner hall to chat.

After chatting about the Jinyiwei, Zhao Ji suddenly stared at Zhao Hao and said, "Nephew and Lao Shi have always been intimate, what do you think Lao Si?"

In an instant, Zhao Hao's expression changed slightly, his heart was shocked. He was at a loss for a moment, so he could only say: "The Ten Emperors' Girls are well-behaved and smart, and talented..."

Zhao Ji didn't have the heart to listen to him, interrupted him, and sighed helplessly: "This child is at the age of marriage. I am determined to find a good family for her. There are several good candidates in my heart. It's hard to decide. I'll be careful with my nephew."

Zhao Hao then fell into his heart, and he secretly scolded himself for thinking too much, and said anxiously: "I am afraid that it is inconvenient for me to participate in this matter."

Zhao Ji ignored him and said as if he was talking to himself: "The fifth son of the husband-in-law Cai family, the third son of the Bai Zuo-in-law Bai family, the youngest son of the Yu Taizai family, and the sixth son of the Xu Grand Master family are all good candidates... Compared with the fifth son of the Cai family, the fifth son of the Cai family seems to be more outstanding in literary talent, the young son of the Bai family is a handsome talent, and the young son of the Xu family is more loyal and honest. I wonder what your nephew thinks?"

At this moment, Zhao Ji was like an ordinary kind father, looking a little nagging and hesitant. After all, Zhao Fujin was his favorite daughter.

Zhao Hao saw Zhao Ji looking at him with hope, his mind turned sharply and said slowly: "Since Your Majesty insists on letting me take a closer look, I will forgive me for saying it bluntly... I have a saying that I don't know whether to say it or not."

Zhao Ji's eyes lit up and he smiled and said, "Nephew is originally a royal family, and he is a brother and sister with Lao Shi. What's wrong with it?"

When Zhao Hao heard the word "brother and sister", he felt inexplicably cold. He suddenly remembered the incident of "German orthopedics" in his mind, but his face seemed calm and calm, and he said something slowly.

"The Emperor Maode is like His Majesty planting a pot of rare flowers, carefully and care for them in every way. They are afraid of sunny days, rainy days, fear of rainy days, fear of severe cold in summer, worry about the cold winter, worry about the soreness, and finally the flowers bloomed, which amazed the four seats, but were taken away by a servant named Prince Consort... Now the sister of Emperor Maode is in cardamom and is about to bloom. How can Your Majesty be willing to let someone take away?"

Zhao Hao spoke very slowly and his voice was very light, but he simply went to Zhao Ji's heart. Zhao Ji was stunned and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

After a long time, Zhao Ji murmured to himself: "There is a little bit of reason, it's indeed a little too early..."

He turned around and ordered Liang Shicheng beside him: "I passed on a word to my husband, saying that he is still young in ten years old, and I will finish talking in a few years."

Zhao Hao let out a long sigh in his heart.

However, avoiding Cai Yan is only the first step, and the most important thing is not to let the tragedy that happened to Zhao Fujin in history happen again...

******************

As spring and summer meet, Bianliang becomes more and more lively and prosperous.

Zhao Hao came out of the Jinyiwei Yamen and was idle, so he took Liang Hong, Li Lie and other family slaves to ride horses on the bank of the Bian River.

Wu Song, Fang Baihua, Zhao Lian, Liang Hongyu and others already have their own responsibilities. Lu Zhishen finally returned to secular life and returned to the imperial guards and became the personal army of Zhong Shidao. After many years of exploring the world, he finally returned to the old husband.

There are flowers blooming on both sides of the Bian River.

Brothels and prostitutes, teahouses, rouge shops, Nanza Department Stores... Various shops stretch for dozens of miles, like long dragons. On the river, the blue waves rippling, and the pleasure boats full of garlands shuttle back and forth. The sound of silk and bamboo, flutes and women's singing ripples on the Bian River, intoxicated like a dream.

Zhao Hao sat upright on the gorgeous carriage, lifted the curtain, slowly enjoying the most prosperous and lively scene in the world a thousand years ago, and suddenly returned to the dreamy Jiangnan, and to the banks of the Qinhuai River in the sound of oars and lights.

The grand scene in front of him is even better than Jiangning back then, but he no longer had the carefree freedom he had when he was on the banks of the Qinhuai River last year.

Suddenly, the coachman in front of him called out, and the carriage body shook slightly, and stopped immediately. Then he heard Liang Hong's roar: "Where are you from the blind eye? How dare you block our young master's way?"

Then another strange voice came: "Oh, you dare to scold someone if you hit someone. Is there any other way to the king?"

Zhao Hao heard the sharp and thin voice like a duck man, and his face changed without realizing that he hurriedly lifted the curtain and got off the shaft.

I saw three little eunuchs standing in front of the car. The two people standing were about sixteen or seventeen years old, and were as white and tender as a pseudo-woman. The one squatting on the ground looked even smaller, as if she was only thirteen or fourteen years old. She covered her stomach and squatted, as if she looked painful, but her black eyes were secretly aiming at this side.

The coachman also got off and shouted, "How did you mess with someone? I didn't go next to you. It was two or three feet away. How did you hit me?"

Zhao Hao stared at the little eunuch squatting on the ground and "striking" with a puzzled look in his eyes. Just as he felt that this person seemed familiar, the man on the ground suddenly burst into laughter, stood up suddenly, rushed to Zhao Hao, and shouted "Brother Hao".

Zhao Hao looked at the pair of affectionate eyes that seemed to be smiling and cursed inwardly.

The little eunuch called Zhao Hao, and then said to the two little eunuchs behind him: "You wait here and wait for me. After I have enough fun, I will return to the palace together."

After saying that, he slammed over Zhao Hao and the coachman, quickly climbed onto the shaft, and got into Zhao Hao's carriage.

Zhao Hao's expression changed and he was stunned for a moment. Just as he turned around and ran to the shaft of the car, the "little eunuch" had already lifted the curtain. The eunuch's clothes had taken off, revealing a head of beautiful hair like clouds and gorgeous women's clothing, and was carrying a beautiful little loli with a natural beauty.

The little loli smiled and pulled Zhao Hao's neck of clothes: "Brother Hao, take me to the city for a walk."

Zhao Hao was stunned for a long time before he woke up like a dream and said angrily: "Sister Emperor, what are you doing to run out? Go back to the palace quickly, otherwise I will catch you back."

The little loli's mouth sagged and pretended to be crying. She pulled the corner of Zhao Hao's clothes tightly and said in a fake crying voice: "I'm so suffocated in the palace every day. Brother Hao, just take me to the river to play."

Zhao Hao looked at the little loli, Zhao Fujin's look of anticipation and pitiful expression, and felt a little distressed. He thought that the little loli was stuck in the palace all day long, so he was really annoyed, so he had to raise an index finger and smiled bitterly: "It's only one hour."

Zhao Fujin burst into tears and smiled: "Okay, don't you want them to follow me, just Brother Hao takes me to play."

Zhao Hao had no choice but to take off his official uniform and hat from the car, so he had to instruct Liang Lie and others to wait on the spot, and took Zhao Fujin and the others to stroll along the streets on the north bank of the Bian River.

Along the way, Zhao Fujin looked full of novelty and excited expressions. When he saw everything fresh, he had to touch it and look at it, which made pedestrians on the street look back from time to time. He wondered why this little loli, who was dressed in extremely gorgeously, looked like a country kid in the first time.

However, Zhao Hao soon discovered something that he was worried about - Zhao Hao didn't bring money, Liang Lie and others followed him farther, so he simply took Zhao Fujin into a gambling hall.

First, let the little loli open his eyes, second, win some money to spend, third, take the little princess to the gambling hall to win money, this is exciting and fun to think about... This bright and cute woman like the goddess of light butterfly made him instantly trigger his childlike innocence.

With the help of the lucky charm, the two of them killed all sides in the gambling hall. With a jade pendant, they quickly won hundreds of coins of money, which made Zhao Fujin jump and jump happily, just like a five or six-year-old boy. Winning money is not important, what is important is the process of winning money, which is so exciting and fulfilling. Especially when Zhao Fujin saw the face of the casino dealer swelling into a pig's liver, he smiled even happier.

Fortunately, the two had no intention of looting the gambling hall. They took the opportunity to take it away. They walked out of the gambling hall with one hundred and forty cents of coins and began to sweep the shop next to the north bank of the Bian River.

The two of them first swept through the snack bar on the street, including some tofu brain, crab roe buns, duck blood vermicelli soup... and Zhao Fujin's belly was round.

I bought another big bag, which Zhao Hao put on his shoulder, such as rouge, pollen, wooden comb, rag doll, rattle, bronze mirror... As long as it is a small item, I buy whatever I see, and I pack a lot of bags. Zhao Hao carried the bulging bag, and if it weren't for the gorgeous clothes, he would be a little peddler.

The red sun gradually sets westward, and the two finally return with a full load, especially Zhao Fujin's pretty face, with a happy sweet smile, innocent.

Zhao Hao carried the big bag, Zhao Fujin pulled Zhao Hao's clothes, and the two walked back swaying in the sunset.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

A burst of shouts came, and a dozen servants rode horses and came slowly in a gorgeous carriage. The servants who were driving the way forward kept raising their whips to drive away the people blocking the front.

Zhao Fujin frowned slightly. He was about to say something, but Zhao Hao pulled him back to the side of the road. He saw too many such things and was always performed in Bianliang City. Zhao Hao was no longer surprised.

Seeing that the carriage was about to pass by, suddenly a boy next to them flashed out quickly, heading straight to the middle of the street, possessing himself to pick up things on the ground - it was a rattle that fell out of Zhao Hao's bulging bag...

The servant who was leading the way hurriedly stopped his feet, raised the long whip in his hand and said, "The little thing is looking for death." After saying that, the long whip was about to be thrown off.

The faces of the onlookers on the road changed drastically, and some people couldn't help but exclaim. The boy was only four or five years old, and the strong man whipped it down with a whip, afraid that he would faint.

It was a while since then, Zhao Hao threw the bag on the ground, flew up, grabbed the tail of the whip in the air, and suddenly pulled the slave down with the whip.

The onlookers all cheered and applauded.

The slave was pulled by Zhao Hao, who was 80 years old and fell to pieces. He didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Although the other slaves next to him were furious, they saw that Zhao Hao and the little girl around him were extremely gorgeous and had extraordinary expressions. They had long been working for wealthy families, so naturally their horizons were a little higher than ordinary people. They did not dare to move around and hurriedly reported to the master in the carriage.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a handsome and fair face. Then a boy of similar age as Zhao Hao slowly got off the carriage.

"Who is so arrogant that he dares to touch my Cai family!" The young man looked extremely arrogant and pointed at Zhao Hao and shouted angrily.

Before he finished speaking, a crisp voice sounded beside Zhao Hao: "So what about the Cai Mansion? Can you commit an offense in the street?"

The young man was furious and looked up at Zhao Fujin, cursing: "Things that don't know what you know is life or death, someone...ah...Emperor..."

In an instant, the boy's face froze.
