The Grandmaster Strategist Chapter 13: Betraying Aiko

At this moment, there were a few people's slight footsteps outside the door. Just by listening to the sound, they knew that they weren't martial arts practitioners. Then the two maids pushed open the pavilion door, surrounded by the maids, Princess Changle was holding a little baby Walked in. Behind her were Roulan and Li Lin. When Roulan accompanied the princess to carry the child, she did not forget to pull him.

Li Xian was the first to jump up and laughed: "I want to see if this child is more like Changle or Suiyun you more." Of course, in addition to the joy of seeing his nephew, he also Wanting to avoid this embarrassing atmosphere temporarily, Li Xian thought annoyedly. But he quickly focused on the baby.

Although he is still less than one year old, this little baby is full of energy, and his big curious eyes are rolling around, inheriting the advantages of his parents’ appearance. Although he is still young, he can see that he will grow up in the future. A handsome young man.

The more Li Xian looked, the more he felt that the child’s eyes somehow resembled him. He couldn’t help but stretched out his hand to hug the child. Although there are already several children, Li Xian never pays attention to them. He is not a real father yet, so holding this little baby is harder for him than holding a knife and gun. Moreover, the soft and delicate baby's body also made Li Xian hurried, lest he might be injured by too much strength. However, the little child seemed to be full of energy, and he seemed to see Li Xian's embarrassment and giggled. Li Xian became more overjoyed and couldn't help but reach out and lift him high. Princess Changle exclaimed: "Brother Six, don't scare Shen'er." Who knows that the little baby was not only not afraid, but laughed for joy. The bright eyes are filled with excitement and curiosity. A warm current surged in Li Xian's heart. For the first time, this little baby brought a parent-child feeling that Li Xian had never experienced before.

The family of the emperor was originally indifferent to family, coupled with the fact that it was not in harmony with Qin Zheng in the past, so Li Xian did not pay attention to his prostitute Li Lin until after Qin Zheng died, Li Xian felt guilty. I paid more attention to Li Lin, but because of the previous estrangement and the suffering in Li Xian’s heart, to Li Lin, Li Xian was more like a commander and teacher than a father. He carefully taught Li Lin and hoped that even if he could not inherit the throne, It is also possible for this child to inherit his own mantle and become an excellent general. But for this little nephew, Li Xian loved it from the bottom of his heart. He only hated that the child was not his own son for a while. Over the years, apart from killing and killing Li Xian, he was already a lifeless man, but it was the first time to recreate The thirst for life surged.

Li Lin stared at his father blankly. He had never seen his father so happy. At this moment, he wished to replace the little baby and appreciate the warmth of his father's embrace. At this moment, there was a hand gently touching the top of his head. He looked up and saw a gentleman in Tsing Yi looking at him with a smile, his eyes were so warm, Li Lin only felt tears filled his eyes, and he quickly turned his face away. Go, don't want people to see their cowardice. A trace of pity flashed in the eyes of the Tsing Yi Xiu, and then turned around and smiled: "Okay, your Royal Highness, don't tease Shen'er. If you break him, Zhen'er will feel heartache."

Li Xian reluctantly returned the baby to Princess Changle, and laughed: "Don't pretend, but I have heard from the emperor's wife and His Royal Highness that you were the one who bullied Roulan the most. Such a father knows to bully his sons and daughters, it is better to leave Shen'er to me so as not to be angry with your bad father."

I almost tilted my nose when I heard it. This king Qi, used to like to watch my good shows. Every time I meet, I don’t forget to be a little awkward and hold my arms. I sneered: "This son is naturally I can’t give it to you, but at any rate you are also his uncle, so if you marry the princess in the future and give birth to a princess, I will let Shen'er call you father-in-law."

When Li Xian heard this, his face turned gloomy at first. He felt guilty about Qin Zheng's affairs. Not only did he dismiss Ji concubine, but he also refused. This is something many people know. He wouldn't think Jiang Zhe didn’t. I know, I naturally feel a little bit angry.

But somehow, after a while, he gradually felt that this idea was a good idea. If Jiang Shen became his son-in-law, then the son-in-law would also be a half son, which would satisfy him, but even though he has one or two daughters now, The concubine didn't say anything, and he was much older than Jiang Shen. If you want Jiang Shen to be a son-in-law, you really have to have another daughter. It is not too much for Jiang Zhe to marry another princess and give birth to a prostitute. After all, Jiang Shen is the eldest son of Princess Changle, and his father is such a character. I am afraid that many people will be worried about this marriage.

Thinking of this, Li Xianxin said that it is for this son-in-law to marry a princess. Besides, he also thought that there is no one at home to preside over the feedback, and those children born out of the family are also left unattended, just let them fend for themselves. If there is a virtuous princess to take care of herself, save her own troubles, and it will not delay the future of those children. And it may be that seeing Jiang Zhe’s family enjoying themselves makes Li Xian feel a little guilty. He thought that the so-called Qi family ruled the country, and even his family affairs were chaotic. It is no wonder that he lost to the emperor, and he was frustrated because of his defeat. The knot of heart is a little loose.

The obsession in his heart disappeared, Li Xian's mind immediately became flexible, and immediately realized that this was an excellent opportunity, and quickly said: "Then we can say for sure. If I have a daughter, Shen'er may want Be my son-in-law.

Look at my beloved son, my heart, my son, don’t blame me for just arbitrarily arranging your life and becoming my son. I’m afraid I can’t let you take control of this marriage, but I don’t care. There will be people who care about it. Although King Qi is stubborn, he is a straightforward person, and his daughter should also be very good. But for your happiness, I will give you a few more choices. Thinking of this, I said again: "Well, it's not uncommon to marry your fingertips, but I don't want to be wronged by Shen'er, so let's have a few more daughters in the future, let Shen'er choose?"

Li Xian didn’t care that his future daughter was selected, and said: “Then you and I will give a high-five and promise this. There are so many guests as evidence of this matter. Changle is also in person. You can do this marriage contract. Can not deny."

I smiled slightly and said to myself, if Shen'er has someone else he likes in the future, it's a big deal to drive him out of the house and let him be free. If he doesn't love fame, wealth and wealth, I can only be happy, why not? Can you blame him? Besides, the so-called childhood sweethearts have been in love for a long time. In the future, Shen'er and Qi Wang's daughter will have the opportunity to see each other day by day. If that woman hasn't the ability to make Shen'er tempted, then I can't blame me. Thinking of this, I raised my palm and said, "Of course I won’t deny it. If your Royal Highness has a prostitute and matches Shen'er, this marriage is because your Royal Highness has no intentions, and Zhe has to go to the house to beg her, unless Shen'er is not my son. , Otherwise this marriage will be so decided."

Although Li Xian's military strategy is extraordinary, he naturally does not pay attention to the details of these words, so he also raised his palm, and gave me a high-five as an oath, and agreed that this fingertip would be the marriage.

Looking at Jiang Zhe and Li Xian's high-five swear, the VIPs in the pavilion have different thoughts. Lin Bi yelled badly. If King Qi reconciles with the upper echelons of Dayong for this reason, wouldn’t it be against my Northern Han Dynasty? But she didn’t show her appearance, she just smiled and congratulated. Li Kang felt angry in his heart. He didn’t want to watch King Qi press on him again. He even had infinite hatred towards Jiang Zhe, but after another thought, How can it be said that there is something about children, and I may not have the opportunity to disturb their good deeds, so there is no trace of it. On the contrary, Gou Lian is really happy in his heart. He said that although His Royal Highness Qi is stubborn, the emperor really loves him. Since he has promised to marry a concubine, then this is a good opportunity to make up for the feelings between the emperor and Qi, Jiang Zhe is really great, but in a few words, he has solved such a big problem. If the emperor knew, he wouldn't know how happy he would be.

No matter what people's thoughts are, they are all beaming. Only Jiang Shen, who didn't know that he was sold by his father, looked curiously at the various objects on the large wooden table in the middle of the pavilion. From time to time, I tried to touch those things, but the distance was too far to touch them. Unable to help, Jiang Shen's face was a little distorted, and it was about to turn into a downpour. The door of the pavilion was knocked open suddenly, and Lin Tong who hurriedly rushed over asked loudly, "Did you start catching Zhou? What did you catch?" The little baby was also taken aback, and he was taken away before the tears dropped. Scared back, forgetting the crying Jiang Shen, and looking at Lin Tong curiously.

Princess Changle smiled slightly, she was a little unhappy just now, and she thought that she didn't want to discuss with herself how to follow the cloud, so she told Shen'er to marry her. But after all, she was born in the royal family. Naturally, she knew that the more noble her status, the less likely she was to choose her own marriage. Needless to say, Shen'er was her own son. It was because of Jiang Zhe’s position in the hearts of Dayong and the emperor that she might even be even herself. The husband and wife did not give their son the right to choose a wife. Now that Jiang Zhe has married his son in this way, it is also a precaution. It would be a happy event if the sixth brother can change his mind and stop working against the emperor brother. But seeing that the indoor atmosphere is dense and not raining, Qing Wang Likang and Jiaping Princess Lin Bi are both a little bit unconscious, and some troubles about how to turn around. When Lin Tong rushed in recklessly, he smiled and said, "The princess doesn’t have to worry. After a while, the maid had already invited the princess, and she must have missed it with the princess.

Lin Tong, who had been taking a nap for more than half an hour, fully awake, apologized awkwardly, and retreated behind Lin Bi. Seeing that the time is almost up, Princess Changle smiled and said, "Suiyun, I think it should start, otherwise Shen'er will be anxious." I looked at Shen'er's curious eyes and said: "Then let him catch it. , I also want to see what Shen'er will catch?"

Zhou Zhou is a folk custom that has been circulated for a long time. As long as it is a little more respectful, people will invite relatives and friends to the party when their children are one year old. There are many things on the wooden table in the center of Tingtao Pavilion. Both Zhe and Princess Changle are not ordinary people, and the items prepared this week are also very delicate and valuable.

One silver plate contains a gold seal, two ebony plates, one contains three hardcover books, namely "The Analects", "Laozi", and "Diamond Sutra", and the other contains The finest lake pen, emblem ink, rice paper, Duan inkstone, a boxwood plate with an abacus, ingots and account books, on a red satin with a carefully crafted white jade piano, only half a foot in length, a pair of ink jade crystal refined The Go game is invaluable. Inside the black iron plate is a short sword and a machete. They are all green shark skin sheaths, golden mouth, yellow velvet arm in arm, very luxurious. But what is placed in the middle of the table is a box of cakes made by Princess Changle herself, which is fragrant and mouth-watering.

These items are very luxurious. Even the powerful and powerful King Qi and the others can't help but feel a bit too extravagant. King Qi looked at it and laughed: "Since it is my son-in-law, then I can't wrong him either." He took a crystal clear purple jade soldier talisman out of his arms and put it on the table.

Princess Changle said in surprise: "Brother Six, this is your talisman for commanding the army. How can this be taken out for Shen'er to grab it?"

Li Xian smiled and said: "It's just a scene. Even if Shen'er catches it, I have to take it back, but I want to see if this kid has the life of a soldier."

I smiled slightly and said: "His Royal Highness thinks this way, I am afraid I will be disappointed. The person who leads the soldiers needs to be cruel. I think Shen'er is a soft-hearted person, I am afraid that he can't bring soldiers."

Li Xian waved his hand and said: "This is not necessarily true. Whoever is born with a cruel heart. In this king's army, many warriors did not even dare to kill when they first entered the battlefield. Wolf?"

A cold light flashed in the eyes of King Qing, and he smiled: "The sixth brother is so enthusiastic, and my third uncle can't help but show it." He took off an old bright yellow purse from his waist, embroidered with four claws. Jinlong has a bulging purse, but he doesn't know what's inside.

A trace of confusion flashed in Li Xian’s eyes. Others didn’t know, but he knew what it was. When King Qing’s biological mother died tragically that year, although Li Xian looked down on this cowardly brother, he still comforted him. But I saw Li Kang crying while holding his mother concubine's makeup box. Although Li Xian was straightforward and knew that he shouldn't bother, he watched in secret. At that time, Qing Wang Li Kang took a jade bracelet from his mother's concubine's makeup box and put it into the bright yellow purse beside him. And Li Kang disappeared from the palace the next day. Many years later, after Li Kang appeared on the Da Yong court again, he always carried this purse with him. Others ignored it, but Li Xian kept it in his heart. He was also quite moved by the filial piety of King Qing. It's just that he and King Qing are at odds. Secondly, Li Xian was a prince and a party, so there was no closeness to King Qing. Today, the brotherhood between the two is very weak and it is hard to recover. Li Xian naturally I won't mention the things that I wanted to comfort my third brother in the past, so Li Kang would never think that Li Xian knew the things in this purse.

I looked at this purse and felt a little strange. I would not ask for something that is unknown or not, so I said: "I don't know what kind of gift His Royal Highness gave. If it is too expensive, I am afraid that the child will not be able to bear it. Start."

Li Kang smiled and said: "This thing is not expensive, it is just a relic of the first mother. If Linglang loves it, maybe our two families are also married."

I froze for a moment. I just said that Shen'er should be King Qi’s son-in-law. Why would King Qing come to propose marriage? At this time, I saw King Qing Li Kang’s eyes fall on Roulan, and I immediately understood, mother’s The relic is naturally the best gift for his wife or daughter-in-law. King Qing unexpectedly wanted Roulan to be his daughter-in-law.

The anger in my heart can no longer be restrained. Although I betrayed Shen'er, he was engaged to marriage at a young age, but this does not mean that I can make Roulan's marriage hastily. In my heart, my son is natural Anyway, he can run away from home in the worst case. The daughter should be favored. Let alone the son of King Qing who doesn't know what is good or bad, he is any child of the Dayong imperial family. Don't even want to marry my daughter. My Roulan will marry a man who loves her like a treasure in the future. How can those royal children with three wives and four concubines be Roulan's husband-in-law?

The look on my face became indifferent, and I said calmly: "Your Highness’s kindness, Zhe is grateful, but Zhe Ping cherishes this daughter the most in her life. She wants her to get married. Now Lan'er is still young, this marriage It’s not convenient to talk about."

These words did not give King Qing any face, even I was a little worried that he would turn his face, but to my surprise, Li Kang's expression did not change at all, and he smiled: "It seems that the dog does not have this blessing. Mr. Jiang’s young lady is naturally precious, she deserves a better match."

This sentence seems to be envious and ridiculous, but Li Kang said it is very peaceful, I saw that he did not have a seizure, and I secretly relieved, I can't help but regret the invitation to him, originally for his identity , After all, he was the prince of the dynasty and the elder brother of Changle, but his coming, not only made me an enemy, but also made the internal contradictions of Dayong fall into the eyes of outsiders. Unfortunately, I can't hinder his face and The harmony on the surface just missed Roulan's life. Seeing the thoughtful look flashing in Lin Bi's eyes, I also know that I am afraid that inviting her over this time is not worth the gain. It's just that there is no regret that medicine can be taken, and my heart secretly said, nothing else, there will always be a way to make up for today's loss in the future. I barely smiled on my face and said, "Well, Zhen'er, let Shen'er do it soon, I think he can't stand it anymore."

Princess Changle smiled softly, and personally placed her beloved son on the wooden table and let him act since childhood. Jiang Shen opened his eyes wide and showed a look of joy and curiosity. He was just anxious to get those interesting things, but now he refuses to reach out and just looks carefully.

After a while, the little baby started to move. He quickly climbed up to the middle and picked up a fragrant pastry. .

I couldn't help groaning. I heard that if it is the first time to catch the pastry when catching the week, it means that the child may be lazy in the future, although the guests will most politely compliment that the child will definitely be well prepared in the future. I originally wanted to remove the cakes, because Changle's cakes even I can't put it down. I am afraid that Shen'er can't resist the temptation, but Zhen'er said this is the rule. Now it is not the case. Shen'er is the first to get the cakes.

At this moment, Xiao Shunzi, who had been standing silent in the corner of the room, suddenly smiled, I glared at him and said: "What are you laughing at?"

Li Shun laughed and said: "The young master is indeed the son of the young man. Didn't the young man tell the minion that he was the first one to catch pastries when he caught Zhou Zhou?"

As soon as he said this, there was a moment of silence in the room, and then Li Xian burst into laughter. Although the others were hampering my face, they were all smiling. I didn't feel a little embarrassed, but I thought, this way, others will not laugh at Shen'er. Although Xiao Shunzi has lost my face, he still has merit in keeping Shen'er's face.

At this moment, Shen'er has put down the cakes, her big eyes wandered around, and she reached out and picked up the abacus. I trembled, and then smiled: "This is good, this is good, Jiang is the most I have a headache in managing accounts. If it weren’t for a trusted subordinate to help manage the industry, I’m afraid Jiang would have been poor and in vain. Shen'er would be smarter in the future, so as not to ruin the family business.” These words are not just comfort, I have the ability to start a business. , But managing those trivial accounts is my biggest headache. Fortunately, I have always used my strengths and circumvented my weaknesses and did not intervene in these things. If Shen'er is smarter, at least I don’t have to worry about him becoming a prodigal in the future.

Then Shen'er dropped the abacus and reached out and picked up the exquisite saber. I regretfully thought: "There is still a sword, so why don't you take it? Who doesn't know that people with sabers are often civil and military Shuangquan, but most of them are reckless martial artists."

I circulated a few times around the table anxiously, and said bitterly: "Shen'er, what's the matter with you kid? Back then, he was the father, but the second one picked up the four treasures of the study. How do you deal with books and pens? I don’t like it.” Everyone in the pavilion laughed. Those who know me well, Qing Wang Li Kang, Lin Bi, and Lin Tong all felt funny in their hearts. I didn’t think that Jiang Suiyun, who was so talented, would have such a childish side. . But I didn't pay attention to their looks, and looked at Shen'er wholeheartedly, hoping that he would give me some face.

At this moment, Shen'er put down her saber and stretched out her hand to the ebony plate. I was overjoyed and held my breath for fear of disturbing him. Shen'er's small hand swept away, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone immediately became a mess, but he stretched out his hand to another plate. I was secretly delighted and said that if I took the book, it would be great. Sure enough, Shen'er reached for a book, and then her little hand tore it curiously.

But I just felt a buzz in my head, stepped forward, picked up Shen'er by the collar, and yelled: "Smelly boy, what's the matter with you? I also caught a copy of Lao Tzu, but the first one was the Analects of Confucius. It’s okay for you to hold on to the Diamond Sutra. If you don’t do anything wrong, you want to be a monk. It’s unreasonable. Throw this book away. You are It doesn’t matter if you don’t recognize a word, this monk can never do it."

Princess Changle couldn't laugh or cry, she stepped forward and said: "Suiyun, don't be impulsive. Taking the Buddhist scriptures is just a relationship with Buddhism. Why is it involved in being a monk? Catch Zhou is just a ritual. How can you be so serious? . Let go, don't hurt Shen'er."

I said straightforwardly: "Yeah, yeah, I was too impulsive, who told this kid not to save me some face." After I said that, I looked at Shen'er, worried that he would be frightened, but didn't watch. Fortunately, at first glance, I couldn't laugh or cry. Although Shen'er was holding the Diamond Sutra tightly with her hands, her feet were dangling, and she was swinging there.

I angrily said: "Unfortunately, how come out of such a tired kid."

Li Xian couldn't help but smile and said: "Suiyun, don't worry, I think this kid is naughty and lively, and he will be a good material for martial arts in the future."

At this moment, Xiao Shunzi suddenly flashed his eyes, looked out the window, and said coldly: "Where is the expert here at Jinghai Villa, the evil shadow Li Shun is polite, please show up."

I was shocked. Although this Jinghai Villa is not visible on the surface, there are countless secret posts in this villa. How can anyone break into this place without being noticed?

At this moment, there was a soft Buddha's name outside the door, and someone said: "Li Shizhu's martial arts is so diligent. I really admire Lao Na. Only then did Lao Na see that Jiang Tanyue is taming his son. Please forgive me for any inconvenience." /

Then the pavilion door was slowly pushed open, and a middle-aged monk wearing a gray robes stood with a smile, but I felt my scalp tightened, and said confidently: "Master Cizhen, it’s not good to be a monk, please Master, forgive me." I cried unlucky in my heart, how can I tell this master who has the status of a master to listen to me? What if he thinks I am biased against Buddhism.

Master Cizhen smiled slightly and said: "Old Na understands Tan Yue's mind, and Tan Yue will stand in the next year. There is only one child under his knees. It is inevitable that he has a lot of hopes. However, Lao Na sees that this child has excellent qualifications. If Tan Yue allows him, Lao Na wants to accept him. I don’t know what Tan Yue wants."

I blurted out and wanted to refuse, but when I saw Xiao Shunzi shook his head lightly, my heart moved~IndoMTL.com~ This Master Cizhen definitely wanted my son to become a monk, Shen'er was from the princess, and It was the only son under my knees, and no matter how much Master Cizhen loved him, he wouldn't let Shen'er be a monk.

At this time, Master Cizhen said again: "Although Pei Yun is my Shaolin guardian disciple, he is now holding a heavy hand. It is not convenient for him to intervene in many things in the rivers and lakes. Old Na sees that Linglang's character and aptitude are very outstanding, so he thought Love, if Tan Yue agrees, Lao Na is willing to accept Linglang as a closed disciple. He also asks his Royal Highness Tan Yue and the princess to rest assured that looking at Linglang's face, the future will be a long life, many children and grandchildren, and will never become a monk."

I know it in my heart, or Shen'er's aptitude is extraordinary, but I think this old monk is out of his hand because of his personal qualities. If Shen'er worships Shaolin, Xiao Shunzi and I will never be able to get along. Shaolin was embarrassed, the old monk still had doubts about me. However, after thinking about it, Shen'er always has no moment of silence. It seems that she has no ability to make a fuss. If she is practicing martial arts, there is no better master in the world except for Master Cizhen. Shaolin martial arts is said to be the most authentic martial arts in the world. If you don’t practice well, you won’t practice bad. After worshiping such a master, who would dare to be careful in the future?

Thousands of thoughts flashed by, and I smiled and said: "Shen'er can worship the master, it is naturally his blessing, but our husband and wife only have this son. I only hope that he will grow up safely, and if he is The master took him away, wouldn't it hurt our parents' hearts too much?"

Master Cizhen smiled slightly and said: "Lao Na has decided to temporarily place an order at Chang'an Fuyun Temple. Now that Ling Lang is still young, Lao Na can also stay at Mr. Jiang's home for the time being to teach."

I was overjoyed in my heart and said: "The deal." After a word came out, I realized the gaffe, and hurriedly said: "In this case, Zhe thanks the master for his kindness, but how can the master come here?"
