Chapter 7 Temptation
Zhao Rong got the effect he wanted, even if it was not obvious, at least Zhao Zhen and Qin Keqing's eyes had quietly changed.
Zhao Rong saw in the eyes of Zhao Zhen who came to visit him, as always, disdained, but a little confused, as he was hoped.
Zhao Rong saw more surprise, doubt and a little exploration from Qin Keqing's pupils, which were something that she would not have shown before.
Perhaps because the weather is getting colder, the wound on Zhao Rong's right arm is scarred slowly. Although there are precious medicinal materials that can be used vigorously, the wound has not been closed.
Zhao Rong lay lazily on the lounge chair in front of the desk. The lounge chair was specially found by Matcha. For the sake of comfort, Matcha also specially put a layer of brocade quilt.
It's noon, after dinner.
The sun shines into the carved wooden windows, and the mottled light spots make Zhao Rong feel warm all over. In Zhao Rong's opinion, it is best if he can be eternal.
Thoughts passed by, Zhao Rong couldn't help but remember what Zhao Zhen said when he came to Tianxianglou to visit him yesterday at dusk!
The Mid-Autumn Festival of the following day, the Zhao Manchu and Ningrong Mansions held a family dinner at the Duke Rong Mansion. At that time, the Duke Ning Mansion would all go there.
"Family dinner?"
Zhao Rong smiled secretly. As he contacted more and more, he found that the Zhao family and the Jia family in Dream of Red Mansions had different surnames and different titles.
I have learned a lot about the next door to Duke Rongguo Mansion recently from Matcha, as written in Dream of Red Mansions, the Duke Rongguo Mansion, the Duke Rongguo Mansion, Zhao Yuan, the Duke Rongguo Mansion, and Zhao Daishan, the Duke Rongguo Mansion.
Now, Zhao Daishan's legitimate son Zhao She was inherited. However, the second son Zhao Zheng was favored by the late emperor and still stayed in the Rongguo Duke's Mansion and served the old lady Shi family. Strangely, Zhao She, as Duke Rongguo, lived in a separate courtyard.
Zhao She has two sons and one daughter, namely the eldest son Zhao Lian, the second son Zhao Cong, the youngest daughter Zhao Yingchun, and Zhao Lian's wife. She is the stingy and decisive Wang Xifeng, Zhao Cong, and Zhao Yingchun who are young, so I won't say for now.
Zhao Zheng was appointed as the Minister of Works. He had a wife named Wang, who had three sons and two daughters. The eldest daughter Zhao Yuanchun was smart, virtuous, dignified and polite. He entered the palace in the third year of Tongguang and was named Concubine De. The eldest son Zhao Zhu died young, leaving only his widow Li Zhi and his beloved son Zhao Lan.
Zhao Zheng's second son Zhao Jue, whose nickname is Baoyu, was raised by Shi Taijun since he was a child and loved by Shi Taijun the most; as for the third son Zhao Huan, it was born by Zhao Zheng's concubine Aunt Zhao; finally there was Zhao Tanchun, who was also born by Aunt Zhao, and the mansion was called the Third Girl.
Compared with the situation where the Rongguo Duke Mansion is full of talents, Ningguo Duke Mansion is much more depressed and lonely!
Zhao Rong's grandfather Zhao Jing, who has been practicing alchemy in Taoist temples in the suburbs of Beijing for many years, has long since returned to the mansion. Although Zhao Rong's father Zhao Zhen, although he had a younger sister, Zhao Xichun, was sent to the old lady Shi of the Duke of Rong because he was young and had no mother.
Zhao Zhen's first wife passed away and helped the side wife You Shi re-string, but You Shi did not have children. Therefore, Zhao Zhen, who was in the year of destiny, had only Zhao Rong, the son. If his daughter-in-law Qin Keqing, there were only five people who attended the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet in the Duke of Ningguo's Mansion!
Thinking of this, Zhao Rong couldn't help but laugh!
Unexpectedly, the mansion of the Great Ningguo Duke was only five people who could truly be called the master. At this moment, Zhao Rong didn’t know whether he should sigh that the people in the mansion were thin or that the people in the mansion were simple!
"By the way, there is another Zhao Qiang!"
Zhao Rong thought that there was a brother of the same age as him in the Ningguo Duke's Mansion, but he had never seen him since he got married, so Zhao Rong felt strange.
According to what the Red Book says, Jia Qiang and Jia Rong have a very good relationship, but why did they get hurt by themselves? Zhao Qiang has never even shown her face?
“Matcha, Matcha…”
Thinking of these complicated interpersonal relationships, Zhao Rong was indifferent to this family dinner between Ning Rong's two mansions. He subconsciously wanted to find Matcha and called her to tell Zhao Zhen that he could not go to the Duke Rong's mansion with his injuries.
"Matcha and Ruizhu are going to buy jewelry, powder and miscellaneous items. My husband is thirsty, so Keer pours a cup of tea for his husband!"
It was not Matcha that came in, but Qin Keqing, but what made Zhao Rong feel strange was that Qin Keqing was no longer cold in the past, and he smiled and spoke with his husband, which made him beware of it.
But soon, Zhao Rong laughed secretly at his suspicion, and Qin Keqing became enthusiastic. Isn’t this exactly what he wanted to see?
Therefore, no matter what purpose Qin Keqing is so attentive, she will come. Zhao Rong is determined to watch Qin Keqing cook water and tea, without stopping or talking. He reads quietly, and Qin Keqing pours tea silently. The couple seemed particularly harmonious at this time.
"This guy..."
When Qin Keqing lowered her head to pour tea, she secretly looked at Zhao Rong like a wood. She didn't expect that Zhao Rong could be so patient.
The more Qin Keqing looked at Zhao Rong like this, the more confident that Zhao Rong had a deep face. The more she could not see through it, the more she wanted to see through it, the more she wanted to see through it!
"Husband, drink tea!"
Qin Keqing held the tea in both hands and handed it to Zhao Rong. Zhao Rong took it with a smile, first smelled it and then savored it, and then said comfortably, "Good tea, good tea, good tea, good people!"
"ah!"
Qin Keqing was instantly flirted with shy expression. She said with resentment with anger, "Husband, if others hear these words, they will make jokes."
Zhao Rong put down the teacup, looked at Qin Keqing's charming face, and said calmly, "Can you even be laughed at if you say a few words of truth?"
After all, Qin Keqing is a woman, and since childhood, he has read books such as the female history and the female biography. He has never heard of such naked praise.
Qin Keqing's face was flushed and her body was hot. She wanted to blame Zhao Rong for his frivolity, but after thinking about it carefully, she found that what Zhao Rong said seemed to be true.
In an instant, the two of them fell into peace again. At this time, no matter what they said, they seemed a little embarrassed!
In the end, Zhao Rong first spoke, "My wife is like this today, but what do you have to say?"
Qin Keqing was stunned. Zhao Rong's voice made her feel a little awkward, but thinking about the doubts in her heart, Qin Keqing still held back awkwardly and asked, "Husband, I saw a pair of words on your desk the day before yesterday, saying that the vastness of the gates is as long as iron. Is this written by my husband himself?"
really!
Zhao Rong laughed in his heart. Qin Keqing's behavior is abnormal today. It turns out that he wants to test himself. Zhao Rong thought, I'm afraid Matcha was deliberately sent away by her!
Zhao Rong looked at Qin Keqing without any objection, but did not answer directly. Instead, he asked with a smile, "What do you think of these two words?"
"Attractive, majestic!"
Qin Keqing paused his head and said, "Throughout ancient times, there are only a few people including Su Dongpo, Xin Jiaxuan, etc. If this word was really written by his husband, Ke'er really underestimated it before, but there are only two sentences in this word, but I don't know if there is anything else?"
Exam school?
Zhao Rong smiled again in his heart. Qin Keqing was indeed meticulous and actually came up with such a way to test himself, but how difficult it is!
Zhao Rong clapped his hands and said, "Madam, I said, you write it!"
Qin Keqing was overjoyed and immediately walked to the desk to spread rice paper, picked up the pen and dipped it ink, waiting for Zhao Rong to tell the story.
Zhao Rong looked into the distance and chanted slowly and said: "The west wind is strong, and the geese call the frosty morning moon in the sky. The frosty morning moon in the morning, the sound of horse hooves is broken, and the sound of trumpets is swallowed. The pass is long and as iron, now we are stepping from head to head. From head to head, the mountains are like the sea, and the setting sun is like blood!"
After the lyrics of the song, the whole house is silent!
