Lu Jingyi is very close to people, even to the guards and servants around him. So people who don't know what's wrong with his conversation with Bu Qingyi don't think. Only a few people who know the inside know why Bu Qingyi's attitude is lukewarm.
However, Lu Jingyi is the prince after all. Whether he likes it or dislikes it, it's a matter between them. No one else is qualified to intervene. Therefore, these people can't be straightforward, they can only be embarrassed together.
Fortunately, there are not many opportunities for Lu Jingyi to run to the back and talk to each other. As the most important goal of this trip, his whereabouts are closely planned by the guards. Bu Qingyi, in order to cut off the chance of his entanglement, hides far behind the team and leaves all the opportunities for conversation to shitongzui.
Of course, it's more interesting to listen to the legends of the eight wild animals in the sea than to accompany a vinegar jar.
What Qingyi didn't expect is that Shi tongzui can provide not only stories to kill the boring time, but also some secrets related to the strange country Nanming.
Nanming is an ancient country with a long history. It has a profound accumulation in both culture and legislation. In the long history, it once existed as a leading power. Today, the Shen family of Zhuozhou is in charge of the supreme imperial power of Nanming, which has not been replaced in the past 300 years. As a result, half of the officials in the former dynasty were in laws of the Shen family. This can indeed ensure the stability of the Shen family, but it also has a drawback, that is, putting too many human relations above reason makes the rulers of the Shen family more and more confused.
The master of mediocrity is the present Nanming emperor.
"Emperor Nanming had no worries at all. He always believed that Nanming had the necessary minerals for forging weapons, which could bring peace with other countries. There was no need for other means. As long as sufficient supplies were ensured, there was no need to worry about which country would invade. Let's say that this marriage was the result of the struggle of some farsighted courtiers in the court. The Nanming emperor complained for a long time that it was unnecessary to marry his daughter to a foreign country thousands of miles away. Just a few more carts of ore was enough. " While drinking the tea in the water bag, he chatted leisurely.
Bu Qingyi didn't understand politics, but he also understood the minimum balance of interests. He said with emotion, "do you think it's not dangerous to use minerals to win over other countries? It's naive. A child runs to a group of poor adults with a copper coin in his pocket. He thinks that he can maintain a good relationship with them by giving each person a copper coin. But in fact, he is most likely robbed by those people, right
"That's right, so emperor Nanming is the representative of pig brain." Shi tongzui licked the tea stains on his lips and said, "although it's a big deal, I really don't think much of the marriage between Nanming and Xiping. The emperor here is rushing to push the best prince into the fire pit, but the emperor over there is very sorry for his daughter. He doesn't know what it will be like to see her. Maybe his royal highness can't stand the emperor's attitude Give up the marriage. "
Bu Qingyi almost subconsciously retorted: "no, his heart is full of Xiping. Even if he is wronged, he will never do anything harmful to Xiping's interests."
It is true that she is tired of Lu Jingyi's wishful pursuit, but this will not affect her evaluation of Lu Jingyi. All the time, the king of Jin in her mind is full of love for the world and the people. She also deeply remembers what Lu Jingyi said to her and his perseverance in paying for the Communist Party of China.
Because of this, she didn't leave, didn't give up on him because of the love she shouldn't have. Maybe it's because of his persistence? Or because she didn't want to see the tragedy of Qin Chuan staged in more places.
"In a word, girl Bu is also a person with business in mind." Shi tongzui suddenly sighed, "I thought that the girl was from the river and lake. She was born to yearn for freedom and freedom, and was unlikely to be involved in the right and wrong of the previous dynasty. But when I heard about what some girl Bu had done, I found that I was very wrong. The more important she was at the critical moment, the more important she could play. Just like this time, she knew how dangerous the trip was, but she decided to go with her to protect King Jin? I can't afford this heavy responsibility. I'm just envious. "
"Yes, I'm not like a person in the world. But aren't we just like each other? " Step green clothes smile, staring at the same drunk, eyes flashing a sharp luster, "when the boss is not like a simple businessman."
Shi tongzui didn't deny it, but looked at the front and thought for a long time. Then he said with a bitter smile: "I'm not like a businessman any more. It seems that I have to travel around more and stay in the imperial capital for a long time. Even an ordinary businessman will think too much! "
Bu Qingyi is not sure whether he is influenced by others or he is unfathomable. She just thinks that shitongzui is different from ordinary businessmen. Although she always talks about how to pay attention to interests, his eyes are cleaner than most ordinary people, with a touching sincerity.
The conversation with Shi tongzui makes time pass quickly. When it's getting dark, the team stops at the post station. Bu Qingyi's conversation with Shi tongzui hasn't stopped. After chatting for a long time, her mouth was dry and her stomach was growling. Bu Qingyi finally thought of the man she had forgotten in the corner."Oh? Finally you know you're looking for me? " Mo GUI looked at Bu Qingyi, who rarely came here on his own initiative, and his face was very unhappy. "Didn't he get along with that unscrupulous businessman? We can have dinner with him. "
"Jealous? It's lovely. " Bu Qingyi, as he used to laugh at her, had a bad smile in his eyes.
Mo GUI looked at her lightly, but without any stubble, leisurely took out a packet of dried meat from his luggage and said to himself, "such a large packet of dried meat, one person can eat it to Nanming."
After listening to his words, bu Qingyi's eyes were round and angry: "don't want to eat alone! I said yes, the jerky is half as good as me
"For what? You didn't do it. " Mo GUI picked up a piece of dried meat and put it in his mouth, deliberately showing an expression of enjoyment. "The longer you put it, the better it tastes. Such a good thing should have been shared with others, but some people always make me angry, and I can only eat alone. "
Bu Qingyi rolled his eyes and gritted his teeth: "you're not a man, Mo? He threatened me with food
"If I'm a man, you can try it yourself."
“…… I must have water in my head to allow you to come with me! "
No matter how Bu Qingyi roars, it's an unchangeable fact that he's going all the way back home. He's digging his own pit and has to jump on his knees.
However, Mo GUI is not the one who was fearless with a thick skin at the beginning, and nothing can be used to coerce him. Now Bu Qingyi knows how to poke his pain point, and takes revenge quickly.
The scale of the post station near the capital is relatively large, but the front hall can only accommodate more than a dozen tables, so it can't accommodate hundreds of people. Therefore, only people with certain status and status are qualified to eat at the table.
Bu Qingyi, as a princess of Qingxiang, seems to be king Jin and his "admirer". Of these dozens of people, he is one of them. Although Mo GUI publicly states that he has nothing to do with Pei Zan, he still has the name of Prince Shizi of Dongyang. Maybe because of the consideration of previous contacts, Lu Jingyi has a place for him. As for the merchants and clerks who carry goods, they are not qualified to sit here, even to enter the front hall.
But Shi tongzui sat beside Bu Qingyi.
Shi tongzui was able to attend as a businessman among the princes and grandsons, thanks to bu Qingyi's invitation. When he appeared in front of him with his sunny smile, he really annoyed Mo GUI. With a click, he crushed the cup in his hand.
"If you want to practice Kung Fu with copper skin and iron bone, go outside and don't show off here." Bu Qingyi glanced at Mo GUI's hand as if nothing had happened. He turned to Shi tongzui and said with a smile, "when the boss escorted so many goods, what delicious food can I have?"
Shi tongzui nodded, lifted a small clay jar and put it on the table: "it's already ready. This is Fengyang County's specialty sauce pigeon. It tastes salty and fragrant. The meat is soft and tender. It's the most suitable for eating! "
Seeing Bu Qingyi take over the mud jar, open the cover, with a look of expectation and a deep sniff, Mo GUI raises her eyebrows high, quietly kicks her under the table, and pushes the packet of dried meat to her hand.
This dried meat is bu Qingyi's favorite food. It takes a lot of time to make it. Before she entered the palace, Mo GUI went to the mountain to play game. She cooked it all night. After a long time of air drying, she produced such a package. Originally, bu Qingyi's eyes would be red when she heard the word "dried meat". But at this time, she was indifferent to the dried meat, as if she lost interest for a moment. Instead, she showed great interest in the pigeon in the jar.
Where can Mo GUI not understand? Bu Qingyi was fighting against his "threat", just for the purpose of joking, but his heart was not happy, especially after the smile on Shi tongzui's face became more and more brilliant.
This unpleasant feeling quickly evolved into anger, and Mo GUI's anger has always been cold and silent.
Before Bu Qingyi had time to respond, he grabbed the bag of dried meat, got up and went to the door, raised his hand and threw the bag of dried meat into the water tank at the door.
With a plop, the heavy jerky quickly sank to the bottom.
Bu Qingyi's face suddenly changed, and she stood up, with anger surging between her frowns.
"Don't you like it? Then throw it away. " Mo GUI turned back quietly, a light whisper, cold to the extreme.
A moment ago, the noisy front hall suddenly quieted down. Everyone's eyes were focused on Bu Qingyi and Mo GUI.
There was a small group of people waiting excitedly for a storm to come.
