There’s a Dragon Girl in the Desolate Sea: 330. Thirty Dragon Scales (2)
The 30th Dragon Scale (2)
Somehow, the eldest princess felt that what her daughter said was very reasonable, but as a mother, she always had to think about her daughter's future. Now that she is old, I don't know when this life will be taken back by God. Linglong is her only child, and she must keep her glorious life and a happy life.
So the eldest princess touched her daughter's tender face and told her: "Whoever you like, my mother will let whoever marry you, as long as my son likes it."
The eldest princess has never been willful in her life. She doesn't know how much she has paid for the emperor for the world, but for the only daughter, she is indulgent in everything, Linglong likes the emperor, and the eldest daughter The princess wanted the emperor to marry her, and from the current situation, the emperor had no intention of rejecting her. Every time he saw Linglong, he was very close. Isn't he also in love with Linglong?
But the little eunuch, the eldest princess, is also interested.
According to the character of the eldest princess, there is no need for Linglong to beat around the bush with her, just say it directly, but the temperament of the original owner and Linglong are simply worlds apart. To be able to euphemistically say the matter of the little **** is Linglong's doubts, but If the matter of the Concubine Consort was told directly, I am afraid that while the eldest princess believed her, she would also think that she was bewitched by a ghost. Therefore, Linglong decided to wait for the eldest princess to figure out what happened to the little eunuch, and then her temperament changed greatly after being "stimulated". Is this natural?
Oh, if she said that, she should still show that she likes the emperor very much.
The most powerful and powerful woman in the world who loves her the most is standing behind her. Of course Linglong can come here no matter how comfortable she is. No one should think about her being wronged, and no one should think about attacking her!
It just so happened that the concubine also came in. Seeing the mother and daughter hugging each other, she smiled and joked: "What is the princess doing, don't ruin her daughter."
This is not the first time the concubine has said this. The eldest princess is used to it. Linglong feels that the original owner was also influenced by her father's words. She grew up in the opposite direction. Love, dare to hate, act decisively, especially Linglong's appetite.
So since his daughter could speak, the concubine heard the soft voice retorting him for the first time: "What did the father say, the mother is beautiful and brave, Bingxue is smart and powerful, how could she put her daughter down? If it's bad, my daughter should learn more from her mother."
The concubine's brows were even tighter: "What do you do with such a good girl? Your mother was forced by circumstances. Now you have parents to take care of you, so naturally you don't need to work so hard."
Linglong sneered in her heart, but her face did not show the wind and rain: "Father means that when my mother used a daughter to protect the family and defend the country in the battlefield, and then died for the emperor's cousin, it was not out of concern for the imperial court, not based on The suffering of the people is forced by the situation? There are so many women in that day, why is my mother the only one who can do it? As a princess, she can afford this status.”
Speaking slowly and rationally, even the concubine was slightly stunned. He always felt that his wife was too strong and domineering, and he couldn't find the word tenderness in her. Therefore, after the couple's initial love was burnt out for many years, he couldn't help falling in love with others. It's just that as the concubine, this matter cannot be known, and the only possibility to be with the sweetheart is for the eldest princess to fall.
He was a concubine who had married such a woman out of sympathy, wasn't he?
Linglong devoured the soul, and naturally got all the memories of the other party. After the death of the eldest princess, the concubine returned to the officialdom and went on a high-stakes career, and married a sweet wife who was younger than her. It took less than a year to have good news. , he will have a precious son next year, as for his wife, his daughter - who is that, I don't know.
Maybe I will occasionally feel melancholy and nostalgic in the midnight dream, and even Zhongyuan will go to the grave of his wife and daughter every year to burn some paper, but after that? Sadness is but two drops of tears, meaningless.
The eldest princess's eyes are hot, she naturally knows how people outside evaluate her, they dare not say it openly, they talk a lot behind their back, even the daughter she gave birth to is that curling Nana , even estranged from himself. The eldest princess is also a soft-spoken person. Although she loves her daughter very much, the mother and daughter are quite estranged, and she is no match for the concubine and her daughter.
But so what?
Faced with prosperity and wealth, her daughter chose to commit suicide by drinking poison, and refused to embarrass the eldest princess.
Linglong looked at the fascinated appearance of the concubine, and hated such people. When she liked you, she felt that you were swift and resolute. suddenly.
If he could really reconcile with the eldest princess for that woman, Linglong would give him a high look, but he chose to cooperate with the emperor to bring down the eldest princess in exchange for his new life—that was his wife, save him The wife who had lived with him, had been pregnant for him, and slept in the same bed for decades.
"What's wrong with my father, he always tells me not to imitate my mother, making me think that my mother is very bad, and I don't like to be close to her." Linglong flung herself into the arms of the eldest princess like a little lamb. Beautiful and powerful, the person she loves most in this world is me, right?"
The eldest princess chuckled and nodded, her sharp phoenix eyes full of love and pity staring at the little daughter. Afterwards, she glanced at the concubine, which was very indifferent, but made the concubine shudder.
When the prince rebelled, one of his scholars was almost buried under the horse's hoof. It was the eldest princess who rescued him. After that, the two became husband and wife. After so many years, the concubine forgot that the woman who had been at the princess' mansion with peace of mind was once How to kill the decision is daunting. He felt uneasy. He felt that he was full of talent and ambition, but he couldn't show it because he was still a princess, but Linglong thought, the eldest princess didn't force you, and she didn't take off your pants and force you to sleep, why are you still acting in your heart? Woke up?
No matter how many plays there are, no best actor can get them, so why bother.
Linglong left after acting like a spoiled child, leaving the place to the eldest princess and the concubine. She was not worried that the eldest princess would forgive unconditionally like some women, as long as she found out that the concubine had a woman outside, even if It's just a mental derailment, she will definitely stop the loss in time.
The concubine may not have understood a point. Although many people are talking about the eldest princess behind their backs, no one can deny that she is a powerful woman. Who does the glory of the concubine come from? Why does he have no idea in his heart?
The world sympathizes with him because he is the concubine, if he is not, then who is he? After so many years, who knows what his name is, who doesn't call him Consort after seeing him?
Linglong rubs her hands together excitedly, and can't wait to brainwash the eldest princess. The beauties in the world can't do it. We will change the concept every day. In this era, the power is in your hands and you don't indulge in it. Do you have to wait to die? Chastity Arch? What's the use of that! Since everyone thinks that she is a deviant woman and dislikes her, she should go a little bit too far! It's better to let more people understand that people don't need to make compromises, don't need to swallow their voices, and don't need to be an accessory to anyone who has lived such a life, just to have fun.
Not long after she returned to her yard, someone came from the Eldest Princess and replaced all the servants in Linglong's yard. The servants who had been enjoying themselves in the county lord's yard were all terrified, especially the few who served closely, kneeling in front of Linglong before crying and begging the county lord for mercy.
The people around Linglong are actually carefully selected by the eldest princess, but she can't stand the fact that this daughter is brainwashed by the concubine, and she becomes weak and easy to bully. It may be because of her private background, the concubine often Educate your daughter not to look down on the servants, everyone is a mother and father, and you must learn to empathize with others - go to his winter melon skin!
Why should she be considerate? !
Since the concubine himself understands that everyone is raised by a father and mother and needs to learn to empathize with others, why should he teach his daughter to be a typical feudal society woman, marrying from her father and reading from her husband at home Can a female ring be out of line? Looking at the idea of subordinates, it is quite avant-garde, and when it comes to her daughter, she will become an old school.
He didn't dare to ask such a request from the eldest princess, so he would educate the eldest princess' daughter like this. Wouldn't he also produce excitement and pleasure in his bones? Do you think that your beloved daughter is the one who kisses me the most and listens to me the most?
Linglong felt a pain in her head when she thought about it. She waved her hand and gestured to the new servants: "It's too noisy, think of a way to stop their mouths."
The eldest princess has always done things like this. If the people around her daughter are not good, they must thoroughly investigate and deal with them one by one. She is not a soft-hearted person, so she **** those who had done too much, and made the servants of the princess' house kneel. Look on the side. The eldest princess does not care about people's lives, and when she treats such servants who steal and cheat, even because of the good character of the county master, everyone will be rewarded with fifty boards, tattooed, and sold out of the house.
The concubine was also watching the execution. It could be seen that he disapproved of his wife's actions, but he did not stop him. Crooked.
Linglong listened to him saying a lot of great truths, basically listening to the left ear to the right ear, and resting his chin and elbow on the table with one hand.
This posture made the concubine unhappy again: "Linglong, as a lady in the family, how can you be so unpretentious?"
Linglong interrupted him: "Father, since all people are created equal, why can't I be like this? I see that many people are like this, and this position is very comfortable."
She is embarrassed to say that you are of ordinary background, and she is not allowed to hold her cheek with one hand, and the concubine herself has to fart and spit, but she doesn't have to.
She is much more elegant.
The concubine looked unhappy: "Is this your attitude towards your father?"
That's really a beautiful oriental girl.
Has a fresh and pure beauty like a daisy, with black hair like black ink, red and soft lips, and a pair of star-like eyes, clean and bright. When she stared at him with those eyes, Joseph felt as if he had seen an innocent and ignorant deer in the forest, with his wet eyes, silently showing his beauty and pure whiteness.
But beauty, fades away.
Pure white, will be tinted black.
Only a paintbrush can record her amazing beauty and make this angel's wings leave traces of flying as they streak across the night sky.
She was just getting out of the station, surrounded by blonde Englishmen, which made her dark hair, dark eyes, and petite stature so out of place. Carrying the small pink-blue box in her hands, it seemed that those small hands became more fragile and slender. With a little bit of force - he meant a little bit, maybe it would snap easily.
But as an elegant gentleman, Joseph also has the pride of being a noble. Naturally, he wouldn't do such impolite things to such a beautiful oriental lady, he just stood up, pushed away the half-drinked black tea in front of him, walked to the poor and lovely lost deer, and asked gently: "You Are you all right, ma'am?"
The Oriental is conservative and reserved, Joseph kept a good distance, did not kiss the back of her white and tender hand, nor did Meng Lang's surprise her.
Up close, the deer's eyes are black and white, which makes him want to keep it forever.
The girl looked at the elegant and handsome gentleman in front of her. He had curly hair with light color and a very delicate face. She was also a noble girl from a big family. She went abroad by boat and tossed and turned to England to go to a distant relative, but it was the first time she took a train, she lost her address, and she didn't know how to contact her distant relative, so she stood at the exit at a loss.
She speaks foreign language well, can communicate with people, and this gentleman seems to be so good-looking, so he told his embarrassment.
Joseph bowed his head and smiled, "If you don't dislike it, I am willing to help you."
The girl didn't say no—she didn't have a better choice.
Joseph lived alone in a house in the suburbs. His home was as decent as he was. The girl told him that she was called Liuli, a beautiful and fragile precious object, Joseph thought. , she does look beautiful and fragile.
Liu Li naturally couldn't find her distant relatives. She could only live in Joseph's mansion. She was ingenious, and the more she came into contact with him, the more Joseph wanted to preserve this beauty that would eventually fade away.
Such a vivid and moving life, if one day, she and his twin brother will close their eyes, stop breathing, and stop speaking - what kind of human tragedy would that be! Joseph thinks that he can't let such a thing happen. Liuli's beauty makes him more eager to keep her, not just a lonely blank image, he wants to store her soul more.
Liu Li has also seen cameras in China, and even before she was sent away, she even took a family photo at home, so she was very interested in Joseph's camera, when he asked her to be his model When she was a child, Liuli was only a little shy when facing the camera, but she never refused.
Joseph is good at painting. He first painted Liuli's demeanor on the canvas, the angel he wanted to keep at first sight. He couldn't allow her to disappear from this world, he wanted to keep him Like her twin brother, she will always leave her shadow. When she said goodbye to the world, he hoped that she could live in his pictures forever.
It's a pity that Joseph wasted countless films and couldn't really record her moving. The girl shown in the photo is always a dead thing, unable to speak or move. As time goes by, the photo will turn yellow, the film will be exposed, and Liuli will gradually change in her daily life.
She is integrating into England.
But at the same time she lost the graceful oriental beauty that made Joseph's heart move.
She took off her cheongsam and put on a dress.
She lowered her bun and rolled it into waves.
She is no longer addicted to guzheng and Go, and has become curious about astrophysics.
No way.
How is this possible?
He hasn't kept her whole life, hasn't recorded her soul, how can she change herself?
Joseph stopped speaking after another failed shoot.
Liu Li approached him and saw the photo he took, but said he took it well.
Good?
It's dead at all, immobile, fake and sickening, how can it be called good?
The face of the girl in front of him suddenly began to distort. Joseph could never think of the deer running in the forest early in the morning with a pair of wet and pure eyes. He felt that there seemed to be a devil in front of him, which could obliterate his consciousness and destroy his Dream, take away all his good devils!
When he woke up, Liuli had closed his eyes forever.
And in his camera, she finally left her soul forever. The photos he developed show her fear, panic, anxiety, doubts, and of course, maybe love.
Joseph thought he had finally found the best way to keep his soul. Gradually, he started to cheer up, and he turned the mansion into a photo studio, and more and more people came here—and they stayed in his pictures forever.
He went from an elegant and handsome young gentleman to a very old man, Joseph finally found a thing that he couldn't solve, he couldn't record himself, he couldn't keep his soul.
A mysterious invitation is sent to him.
From a long-standing manor owner, I heard that in this manor, everyone who completes the game and wins the game can get what they want.
Joseph left his studio reluctantly, and he ended up kissing the picture of the oriental girl, the soul he loved most.
When panicked people rushed into Joseph's studio with torches, all that was left were the living portraits on the walls, with so many living lives and perhaps their lingering souls on them.
A familiar and unfamiliar face is reflected on the iron gate of the manor.
Ah.
He thought.
It turns out he's so old.
Twenty Dragon Scales (Eleven)
There have been two major events in the court recently.
First, Mrs. Xue Su, who had always been independent from the world, was impeached. There were not many people who participated in him. There were three, namely, Duke Dingguo Qi Yu, Dali Temple Minister Qi Jiayan, and Zhenwei General Qi Yixing.
Second, it is still related to Mrs. Xue. One day, Mrs. Xue returned to the mansion in the evening and was beaten with a sack over his head. He then took five days off.
This Mrs. Xue, who has always been neutral and does not stand in line, has provoked Duke Dingguo's family! It doesn't look like it's too much trouble.
Linglong stood at the door of Xue's house, and beside him were the three Qi family father and son who honestly bowed their heads and held an apology. She put one hand on her waist and warned them again before entering: "I'll see Mrs. Xue later, you all have to apologize obediently, have you heard?"
"I heard it." The three replied in muffled voices.
Linglong was satisfied with this, and took the lead in walking in under the leadership of the housekeeper. Qi's father and son are about to break their hearts. What kind of attitude do the soft and sweet little girls usually see when they see them? The better-looking Xue Su completely left his father and brother behind!
However, no matter how dissatisfied and unwilling to accept it, the face must be honest and sincere. After all, they were the ones who participated in Xue Su, and they were the ones who beat Xue Su with the sack. Thinking of this, Qi Yu couldn't help but look at Qi Yixing complainingly. It was this stupid boy who missed the point in front of Suisui, and even took him and was punished!
I have to humble myself and apologize to Xue Su, the brazen old cow who wants to nibble on the tender grass!
Qi Yixing was very uncomfortable, because he didn't know how he was told by his sister. He wanted to explain that he didn't do it on purpose, but his father and brother didn't believe it.
The group entered the Xue Mansion and saw Xue Su, Linglong felt even more distressed, and wanted to be angry with the Qi family, father and son! Do you know what she likes most about Xue Su? Face! How can you start with such a beautiful face? ! If you want to be beaten, don't you know where to find some meaty places to beat?
The heartache in her eyes almost didn't write out directly, and it seemed that the Qi family's father and son were more and more heartbroken. Under Linglong's gaze, Qi Yu was the first to speak: "Xue...Taifu, today I brought my two sons who were not good enough to apologize to you."
Xue Su was lying on the bed. In fact, although he was beaten hard, he didn't hurt his muscles or bones. It was all skin injuries. It would be fine if he took care of him, but the problem was that he didn't know why he was beaten at all! I don't even know why Dingguo Gong sees himself so unpleasantly! Although the two can't be regarded as friends, they also sympathize with each other.
Qi Jiayan and Qi Yixing also apologized obediently. As Xue Su's students, they naturally couldn't do something as hurtful as beating the teacher. Therefore, the two brothers were mainly responsible for sacks, and their father was the one who attacked the most.
"They're too bad, Mrs. Xue can't forgive them." Linglong put all the gifts of apology on the table, and asked Xue Su seriously, "Ms. Xue thinks I'll make amends for you?"
"No!" Qi's father and son said in unison.
Linglong glared at them: "You are not allowed to speak."
Xue Su has lived for so many years, and this is the first time he has seen such a cowardly side of Dingguo Gong, who dared to confront the emperor, and the unselfish, impartial and honest Dali Temple Minister, the majestic and majestic young hero General Zhenwei, in a petite In front of the girl, her head was downcast like an eggplant hit by frost, both cowardly and mournful.
But he then reacted to what Linglong said, and immediately looked at the girl with an incredible look, his eyes seemed to ask: Are you okay with your brain? "Little princess, do you know how old I am this year?"
"Age is not a problem." Linglong waved his hand, "Are you willing to be my county maid? The emperor's uncle said that he would reward me with a county master's mansion. If you are willing to marry me, we can live together in the future. "
Qi Yu felt that he was about to have a myocardial infarction soon, and he wanted to interrupt, but like his two sons, he didn't dare to say anything, for fear of making his daughter angry again, it would be irreversible.
Xue Su: "..."
"Forget it, I'm not asking for your opinion, I'm just letting you know." Linglong glanced at the three evil spirits with low air pressure around him. "My father and brothers impeach you indiscriminately. I have already told the emperor's uncle that this is a misunderstanding. They are just jealous, you don't need to worry about them."
Xue Su: "..."
"I'll put the gift here first. You should quickly heal the injury, especially your face. You must take good care of it. You must not become ugly or fat like the emperor's uncle."
She repeatedly told her face and figure, Xue Su is an idiot and she knows what this little girl likes about her. Even at a young age, people still look at his beauty... For a while, Mrs. Xue didn't know whether to be ashamed Still proud. He looked at Linglong with inexhaustible words: "How can you be sure that I will marry you?"
Linglong said of course: "Because I will bully others."
Xue Su: "..."
Very well, what he said made sense, and he was very convinced.
Sure enough, the emperor's imperial decree for marriage came down the next day, and Mrs. Xue accepted the decree with a handsome face that had just recovered, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He didn't doubt at all, when he really "married" the little princess, how Qi Yu and his son would hate him to the bone.
Unexpectedly, after the imperial decree came down, Qi Yu and his son met Xue Su again. Although they still had noses, eyes and eyes, at least they did not impeach him or beat him with sacks. Xue Su was very satisfied with this. , cannot ask for more.
It's not that she didn't want to beat him, but she was threatened by Linglong that if she dared to hurt Xue Su's hair again, she would immediately advance the wedding date and ignore them again. This threat was too useful, and the Qi family became honest.
As soon as the news of Xue Su's "marrying" to Changle County Master to be the County Horse Master spread out, it immediately caused a big wave of hype. Xue Su, who is that? Great Confucianism! Full of peaches and plums! Respected! For many years, he has been obsessed with academics and has no wife and no children, but he is very respectable and respectable! How can you marry a woman? ! This is downright hilarious!
Not to mention that this generation is messed up! The two elder brothers of the Changle County Master were students of Taifu Xue, but now Taifu Xue has become the brother-in-law of the students? ! What is this called? There is so much age difference between the two! What was the emperor thinking? !
What else can the emperor think? He has never won against Linglong, the little magic star. The little girl looks very well-behaved, but she is actually smarter than anyone else, and never makes a loss-making business. But will the emperor speak out about this? Let people know that he has been pinched by a little girl, won't he lose face?
As the wedding date approached, Dingguo Gong's mansion was full of gloom and gloom. Everyone, including the old man and the old lady, cried and mourned. The whole mansion was shrouded in a strong sense of dejection and a little joy. nothing. The county master's mansion has been given, and Linglong has found someone to rearrange it according to her own preferences. She is the only one who is happy.
Since it's a man marrying a woman, there are naturally some changes in this ceremony. For example, Linglong only needs to wait for the groom to pass the door at the county master's mansion - it's ridiculous, and it's a big deal! I don't know how many people criticized her behind her back, saying that she was insulting to the gentleman, and imagined Xue Su as a poor literati who was deeply abused and powerless, but Linglong felt that the guy went with the flow, maybe he was happy.
Who can be like him, Xue Su, who still likes a little girl at an age? Or a little girl of noble birth and outstanding beauty?
For this reason, many disciples came to Xue Mansion to ask to see Xue Su, in order to dispel the Taifu's idea of "marrying" to Changle County Master. I hope Taifu can stand up and resist with some literati spirit, as his muffled voice, They will all support him behind his back!
Xue Su was playing with his new set of good tea sets, and said indifferently: "The little princess is beautiful and has a lovely temperament."
So why did he refuse?
That's the imperial decree. Does he look so aloof and arrogant that he doesn't even care about his own head? No, no, Xue Su is still alive. Only when he is alive can he study piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine, and tea, and think about delicious food. Although they don't meet Linglong very much, their hobbies are very similar. Especially after the marriage was decided, they often exchanged letters in order to keep in touch with each other. The image of a cute, clever and willful little girl suddenly appeared on the paper. When I went to Xue Su's study, I knew that he had painted Linglong several times. A beautiful portrait.
The disciples were stunned, Xue Su slowly poured a sip of tea and said, "I have been teaching for so many years, and I am tired. When I marry the little county master, I will not be a master, but a county with an idle job. Ma, I'm very touched by all of you planning for me, but I'm very sorry, but I still have to reject your kindness."
Xue Su, who refuses at all times, is gentle and polite. He is not at all the anger, shame, and humiliation that his disciples imagined. He seems to... quite enjoy it? ? ?
The little princess married the old lady, which completely became the biggest explosive news of the year. It's a pity that the two parties involved are extremely frank, one is calm and the other is calm and comfortable, and even Duke Ding has turned from opposition from the beginning to strong support - just kidding, the county horse chosen by their small county master is no matter how annoying he is and how he needs to be beaten. , then they have to go to the sack together with their family members, why should outsiders point the mouth?
So, Mrs. Xue became Xue Junma.
On the day of the wedding, Mrs. Xue, dressed in red and happy, took her belongings and rode to the county master's mansion. Once the door was closed, what happened here, the people outside could only guess.
Anyway, Linglong is very satisfied.
She lay on Xue Su's chest and touched his handsome face. She couldn't see that this person was thin and undressed. The emperor really had to imitate Xue Su, and he didn't have any fat on his body, which was quite perfect.
She looks at Xue Su now, as if a child saw the super invincible and delicious strawberry cake.
