Chapter 203
Chapter 203
Princess Nanwang and Duan Yuanjie are still young, it is obviously impossible to get married directly, but the process of getting married is almost over, and the marriage is also scheduled for three years later, this sudden happy event makes Duan Xinhou feel very sad Even though he couldn't find Bei for a while, all the courtiers became warm again from the original indifference and contempt because of his marriage with King Nan, which made Duan Xinhou even more proud of himself.
Because her son is about to marry the little princess, Yunying has swept away her previous depression and regained her radiance. A few days ago, there was chaos in the Duke's mansion, and many Xiaolang hooves intended to go past her. Now she has finally reorganized Spiritually, I found two young and beautiful girls for Duan Xinhou, and the one who was the most ruthless some time ago also got a rash for no reason, and his skin was broken from scratching, and it was very oozing.Duan Xinhou was originally greedy for their beauty, the beauty is no longer there, there are new people around him, how can he control the old people.
Yunying has two sons and a daughter. The son will naturally live in the outer courtyard and be taught by a respectable gentleman. Although she claims to be smart, she also knows that men are different from women. She can bring her daughter by her side to teach by example. The son must not be delayed, and Duan Xinhou himself is a pleasure-seeking person, so he doesn't have the patience to ask him to teach his son, so Yunying's two sons have been taught by their husbands to abide by etiquette and distinguish right from wrong since they were young. It's a good bamboo shoot, at least I haven't been taught by this unscrupulous parents.
However, the daughter who was with Yun Ying learned her mother's tricks ten by ten. She watched her mother how to control her husband, how to balance the backyard, how to be strong and how to show weakness. In her heart, there is only one wife, and she feels that she can use this skill for a lifetime.
Because of the posting of this marriage, the Duke's Mansion swept away the depression after the new emperor's ascension to the throne, and there was an endless stream of diners, as if returning to its former heyday.People are most likely to lose themselves in the flowers and applause, especially the Duke of the State is a noble status, and he still has half of the royal blood. Now that he is praised like this, he almost forgets his surname.
Once this person can't see his identity clearly, he will always do something out of his mind, like now.
Han Ning looked at the person in front of him, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Redeem Taolinzhuang?" He just said, because of the guilty conscience of the Duan family some time ago, how could they take the initiative to hand over the invitation card, because they thought they had feelings With a big backer, he has no scruples.
Duan Xinhou also knew that Taolinzhuang was a chicken that could lay golden eggs. Except for the three pavilions where the daily income was 300 taels, it was not a problem for the food and the new gadgets that were constantly being introduced. It should belong to him. He could bear it before, but the more he endured, the more his heart ached. He also thought that Zhan Wenchu must not know what happened back then, otherwise he would have dealt with him sooner. Now his Duan family is married to King Nan again. He has nothing to be afraid of.
Duan Xinhou is very clear about the meaning of this marriage to his family and to the new emperor. A small princess is equivalent to a heavyweight bargaining chip. Even if it is to appease Nan Wang, as long as the little princess stays at his house for a day, he will not ask the new emperor too much. The emperor will never be stingy. He thought it over and over again, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was Zhuangzi, or the dowry of his deceased wife. Some time ago, his family had financial difficulties and sold it. Now that the conditions are better, he redeemed it. Not for granted.
Duan Xin said kindly: "Young Lord, I don't know that Zhuangzi was originally my original dowry, but the source of the goods was deceived by the villain and bought fake goods. In order to compensate everyone's losses, I can't sell the property. Now the money in the family After a little relief, I want to redeem the dowry of my wife who passed away early, after all, this is also my wish, and I hope the little prince can make it come true."
Han Ning caressed his chin: "How about a redemption method?"
Duan Xinhou hurriedly said: "With ten times the silver taels that you bought Zhuangzi back then, what do you think the little prince wants?"
Han Ning clicked his tongue lightly: "No matter, ten times, I can earn it back in a month, so why should I hand over this rich Zhuangzi, let alone the dowry of your deceased wife, Even your current wife’s dowry is not good. Since you were able to sell it back then, it proves that you didn’t treat your deceased wife very well. What’s the matter, now that I see that Zhuangzi can make money, I want to go back? How can there be such a good thing in the world? The thing, the point is, you actually have the face to mention it, Duan Guogong, I really want to admire you."
This is tantamount to bluntly saying that you Duan Guogong is shameless. A yellow-mouthed kid is considered a little prince, but he was a dignified duke before, because he had a guilty conscience and did not have real power in his hands, so he still had his tail between the new emperors. As a human being, he dared not offend Zhan Wenchu, who had made great contributions, but he repeatedly backed down and allowed this well-haired kid to push forward so much, Duan Xinhou's expression turned cold.
"It turns out that this is Lord Zhan's tutor."
Han Ning was not annoyed, and continued to smile: "Isn't it? My father taught me a word since I was a child, people need shame and trees need skin, this shameless person can do all kinds of black-hearted and rotten things. What my dad said was true."
Duan Xinhou said angrily: "You are presumptuous!"
Han Ning stood up abruptly: "You are presumptuous! I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen you so shameless. Want Zhuangzi? Okay, you can go to the emperor to ask for it. As long as the emperor nods, I don't want a penny for this Zhuangzi. Offer it with your hands, come, see off!"
As soon as Han Ning finished speaking, all the generals in the courtyard came forward in unison. These were all due to some injuries and could no longer go to the battlefield. Zhan Wenchu left them as guards at home, and all of them were wounded by sword wounds. A blood-licking ruthless person, how can Duan Xinhou, who is so soft-footed, can be compared. After being stared at by those generals, his heart trembled, but he didn't want to lose his momentum, so he simply pretended to be angry and walked away.
After Duan Xinhou left, Gu Yun came out of the backyard with a gloomy expression. God knows how much she wanted to rush up to tear his flesh and gnaw his bones and blood. When she saw Duan Xinhou, she would think of the tragedy of her son before his death. The bed was covered with blood, so much blood that the bedding couldn't absorb it, dripping down the bed, and the smell of blood in the room was so thick that it couldn't be melted away, especially when he was dying, even his son couldn't see it. One glance, such helplessness, such despair, all because of Duan Xinhou!
Standing behind Gu Yun, Han Ning sighed: "Aunt Yun, bad guys are destined to end badly, you should let go of the past, and just watch his future retribution carefully, why bother to keep talking about it?" Get yourself stuck in it."
Guy Yun turned around, looked at the face similar to his wife's, with a sad expression on his face: "Come out, want to forget, it's not easy."
Han Ning can understand this kind of feeling, but I don't know if it's because he has seen half of 'Han Ning''s life, and has seen the world as a bystander. Feeling empathetic, so he can take revenge slowly and indifferently.Although it seems a little too rational, Han Ning thinks it's good, he doesn't like to lose control.
Not long after, word spread that Duan Xinhou had approached the young prince of the Zhan Palace.The fact that Wenquan Zhuangzi originally belonged to Duan Guogong, except for some dignitaries, is actually not known to many people, but everyone knows that the current hot pot building is a shop that used to belong to Duan Guogong, and was later sold to the little prince, and then it exploded Yes, there is a constant flow of customers every day, and this hot pot restaurant is the only shop that is still full until the market closes. If there is no curfew in central Beijing, I feel that even if it is open all night, there will be many customers.
Many people said that this building is probably incompatible with Duan Guogong. It was a big loss when it was in Duan Guogong's hands, and it became a big shop as soon as it changed hands. I don't know if Duan Guogong will regret seeing the current hot pot building.I didn't expect that besides the hot pot building, the fairy forest that literati are now talking about was also sold by Duan Guogong to the young prince. As for that Taolin Village, it is already hard to find a house. Zhuangzi is the real chicken that lays golden eggs.
In the past, in the hands of Duan Guogong, it was an abandoned manor that no one cared about. Now it is in the hands of the young prince, and it has become a piece of cake. As a result, Duan Guogong actually wanted to redeem the manor in the name of the deceased wife’s dowry. People who heard about this incident felt inconceivable. How could someone be so shameless? Now that Zhuangzi can make money, he wants to come back. How can there be such a good thing in the world.
As soon as the news spread, Duan Xinhou became a big joke in the capital. Some people said that he was relying on Nanwang, so he didn't take Zhanwang seriously. Heard that he was willing to pay the ransom to give Zhanwang face. Otherwise, just go and ask for it with empty teeth.
Some people heard that the young prince refused, but Duan Guogong angrily scolded the young prince for having no tutor, and almost got into a fight.
This matter spread more and more, and it became the case that Duan Guogong took the Nanwang soldiers directly to the palace to ask for advice, intending to snatch Zhuangzi and the chafing dish building over. The incident was so intense that the two princes also became kingless because of this incident, and even the emperor couldn't persuade them to fight.
Han Ning listened to all kinds of rumors from the outside world reported by his servants, stroked his lips and chuckled, the war of public opinion has really existed since ancient times.
When Duan Xinhou heard about this, he smashed all the decorations in the room. The little bastard must have spread the news. Duan Xinhou was so angry that his hands were shaking. He really wanted to bring Nanwang's soldiers to fight. The boy was born to be against him, and he was even more hateful than Zhan Wenchu.
Zhan Wenchu, who was training abroad, naturally heard about it when he returned to the capital. Before he could find his son and inquire about it, he met Duan Xinhou in Chaoshang.When Duan Xinhou first saw Zhan Wenchu, his calves were trembling a little, but when he saw that Zhan Wenchu didn't make any moves, he relaxed a little, thinking that Zhan Wenchu was also a little afraid of King Nan.
But he didn't want to, as soon as the superior announced his retreat, he was stopped by Zhan Wenchu before he walked out of the front palace.
Duan Xinhou looked at the officials coming and going, thinking that no matter what he did, he wouldn't be able to kill him here, so he tried to put on a smiling face: "I don't know what the King of War does?"
Zhan Wenchu looked at Duan Xinhou coldly: "I heard that Duan Guogong accused me of not being able to teach my son?"
Duan Xinhou hurriedly said: "This is just a rumor in the market, the King of War should not believe it lightly."
Zhan Wenchu's eyes swept over him: "Then it is also a rumor that you want to redeem Zhuangzi?"
Duan Xinhou's heart jumped, he dared to mention his deceased wife in front of the young prince, but he didn't dare to mention it in front of Zhan Wenchu, but when this question came to his head, he could only vaguely say: "After all, it is Ning'er's ..."
Zhan Wenchu approached him for a few minutes, Duan Xinhou fell silent instantly, Zhan Wenchu lowered his eyes coldly, and looked at him condescendingly: "Let me hear you accuse my son of a bad sentence, I will bloodwash your entire country!" If you don’t believe me, you can try it.”
Until Zhan Wenchu walked away, Duan Xinhou's heart was still beating wildly and his legs were weak. If he hadn't tried hard to hold on, he would have almost peed his pants. He can play viciously with people and watch people struggle in front of him He was indifferent to death, but for a general like Shangzhan Wenchu who had truly experienced the baptism of blood, he could feel the bloody smell of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood rushing towards his face with just one look. The suffocation, the struggle of silent despair screaming in his ears, even though the warm sun was shining on his body at this moment, his whole body was cold, and it was only after he moved a little that he realized that his whole clothes were drenched with sweat.
Before, he felt that relying on Nan Wang, it was not impossible for him to fight against Zhan Wenchu, but now he realized that what he thought he could fight was just an illusion caused by Zhan Wenchu's ignorance of him. It is definitely not a joke to provoke him and wash the Duke's mansion with blood.
The officials who had been close to him earlier all avoided him one by one at this moment, wishing they could take a detour. The words just now were clearly heard by others. The bloodbath of the Duke’s mansion was still in front of the main hall, which is enough to prove that this is definitely not a crazy statement , It can also make people clearly understand how Zhan Wenchu protects his weaknesses.
At the beginning of Zhan Wenchu's return to the mansion, Nan Wang's gift list was sent back. It was called a rare return to the capital, but it was a pity that he didn't have the chance to have a drink with Zhan Wang, so he prepared a small gift for someone who had never seen it before. Nephew, in fact, it was nothing more than an apology, and he also made it clear that he, the Southern King, was not in the same boat as Duan Guogong.
King Nan understood this matter very well, Emperor Yong understood it very well, and even Zhan Wenchu understood that even if he married his daughter, it was only Duan Yuanjie who married, not the Duke's mansion, so what about Duan Xinhou, whether he died or not? Life is not important.
It's a pity that Duan Xinhou himself didn't understand this point.
This is just the beginning, Nanwang has already made a very clear statement to Zhan Wenchu, if Duan Xinhou doesn't know how to restrain himself by relying on Nanwang's appearance, and he personally cleans up Duan Xinhou, I'm afraid it will be Nanwang.
Han Ning came back from a stroll outside, and heard about what happened in the palace just now. As soon as he got home, he saw Zhan Wenchu who had changed into a regular uniform, so he ran over and hung on Zhan Wenchu's body: "Daddy!"
Zhan Wenchu hadn't seen his son for a few days, and he missed him in his heart, but it was so impolite for a boy in such a large audience, so he gently hugged him and tore him off his body: .”
Han Ning was still hanging on Zhan Wenchu's body, curled his lips and said, "Daddy, why did you go back to the capital? You've become a pedant, and you've been talking about what you're doing all day long."
Zhan Wenchu said: "That's because the bigger you grow, the more inappropriate you become."
Han Ning showed doubts on his face: "Then what should be considered decent?"
Zhan Wenchu said: "Every word and deed, every sitting and lying down, all have etiquette. Didn't the gentleman who hired you when you were young taught you the way of being a man and the etiquette of a gentleman."
Han Ning was slightly disgusted: "It's easy to be a gentleman, but I'm not happy when I become a gentleman. I want to hug my dad but I have to abide by the etiquette. I don't think I can say anything to my dad. I have to abide by the etiquette. I want to sleep on the same bed with my dad." No, you have to abide by the etiquette, you have to keep your words and deeds measured, you can't get close, you can't tell how you miss, you can't do this, you can't do that, there is no fun in life. Isn't it that my father wants to see me living happily? Is it?"
Zhan Wenchu really wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute. Isn't Aning's happiness what he hoped for most, but now he suppressed his thoughts because of the so-called etiquette. This is really contradictory, but he also knows It's wrong to be so close at such an age, but instinctively, he also likes such closeness. If one day his Aning becomes like a gentleman, keep the distance he should have, advance and retreat Deyi, just thinking about it, he felt a little unacceptable.
Seeing Zhan Wenchu's dismayed face, and being told that he didn't know how to refute, Han Ning jumped onto Zhan Wenchu's back with a smile: "Life is short, Dad, we have to enjoy ourselves in time, get close when we need to, and be happy when we want to be happy." , There are already many rules and regulations in this world, so why bother with mediocrity."
Zhan Wenchu subconsciously supported his legs, and after hearing a lot of life principles from him, he finally just smiled helplessly but dotingly: "Nonsense."
The servants in the mansion felt that something was wrong when they saw the two masters who were so close, but they couldn't tell what the problem was, so they could only sigh in the end, their lord really dotes on the little lord too much.
