Chapter 156: Reciting a Poem



Qin Qingyao jumped directly into his arms, and in public, she held his face and kissed him fiercely. Although everyone was busy dividing the money and collecting debts, and few people saw it, Dugu Yu still blushed from his cheeks to his neck.

Since he had already held the child, he didn't let go and directly carried the child home.

Before leaving, Qin Qingyao was still shouting in Dugu Yu's arms, "Hou Hongtu, you take care of the aftermath. Zhao Jinghan, don't forget to ask General Lu for the 1,000 taels of silver I gave you!"

Dugu Yu was so upset that he held her in his arms and didn't have time to cover his mouth. He suddenly turned his head and kissed her.

Qin Qingyao finally quieted down.

Although the couple from the Wuling Palace retreated first, the world of martial arts was still filled with their legends.

Prince Duan was noble and upright when he admitted defeat, but when it came to his own pocket, no one realized how noble he was.

After all, no matter how noble you are, you can’t spend it on me!

The last person to leave the party was Lu Hui, because he had been writing IOUs until his hands were sore.

After returning to Prince Wuling's Mansion, Qin Qingyao had not yet recovered from the joy of defeating Ling Jingxuan, and was dancing with excitement.

Dugu Yu was also helpless, "You only beat him once, how long do you plan to be so proud?"

"Husband, you don't understand. Ling Jingxuan is the male lead, and you are the male second. The rules of this world have determined that you will always lose to him, no matter in what occasion or in what aspect!"

"Think about it, even with this invincibility bonus, he still fought you on equal terms. What does that mean? It means that in terms of true personal strength, you are much stronger than him!"

Qin Qingyao gave Dugu Yu a thumbs-up and said, "Awesome!"

Dugu Yu was so angry that he almost vomited blood. "What do you mean I will always lose to him? Who said that? Why?"

Qin Qingyao patted Dugu Yu's chest and said, "Don't be angry. It has always been like this. It's just that no one pointed it out, and you didn't realize it yourself."

"Think about it, whenever you two are involved in something, isn't it you who suffers or even gets hurt in the end, but all the credit goes to him?"

Not to mention the distant past, just say that you took the knife for Lin Xiafeng, but it was Ling Jingxuan who took her out to have a love affair for the whole afternoon.

You found the perverted murderer. Her elder brother led people to surround him, but it was Ling Jingxuan who intercepted them halfway and took all the credit.

"Even Lin Xiafeng likes Ling Jingxuan, not you!"

Dugu Yu, "Who Lin Xiafeng likes has nothing to do with me?"

Qin Qingyao scratched his ears. "What did you say? My ears are blocked, I didn't hear clearly. Can you say it again?"

"I said who Lin Xiafeng likes has nothing to do with me!"

Qin Qingyao, "The wind was so strong that the words were blown away. What did you just say about Lin Xiafeng?"

Dugu Yu was so angry that he rolled his eyes. He had already lowered the tent, so where did the wind come from? Did you blow it?

Qin Qingyao suddenly raised her head and laughed out loud. She was so proud that she couldn't help grinning at Dugu Yu.

"Okay, stop laughing. Did your throat hurt from all that shouting on stage today? I asked the kitchen to make you some loquat water. I'll bring it over later. Drink some."

"Okay. Husband, you are so good at martial arts, can you teach me martial arts in the future?"

"Why do you want to practice martial arts?"

Dugu Yu recalled the days when he was tortured by his master, and felt a dull pain in his heart. He didn't want Qin Qingyao to suffer the same pain he had suffered.

What's more, with her small body, even if she punched with all her might, it would be like scratching an itch.

"When I become a martial arts master, I will be able to fight back against anyone who bullies me again!"

Especially Ling Jingxuan!

Dugu Yu's face was serious. "Who bullied you?"

Qin Qingyao was overjoyed when she saw Dugu Yu felt sorry for her. "Hey, not yet. Let me take a look at your injuries and apply some medicine on you."

"It's nothing serious, it's just a flesh wound, it will be healed in two days, don't worry about it."

"Of course I have to care. Flesh injuries are still injuries. Even if you don't feel sorry for me, I still do!"

Qin Qingyao sneezed several times due to the choking of the blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicinal wine, but she still wrinkled her nose and poured the wine into her palm in a serious manner. After rubbing it to warm it up, she helped Dugu Yu rub the wound.

He looked so cautious, as if Dugu Yu, this rough old man, was made of tofu and would be crushed if he was crushed with a little force.

The more Qin Qingyao watched, the more distressed she felt. The more she rubbed him, the angrier she became. "Ling Jingxuan, you bastard, you're so reckless! Did you fight back?"

Dugu Yu, "Fight back."

The bruises on Ling Jingxuan's body were definitely no less than his, but after Ling Jingxuan returned home, he didn't have a soft wife to rub her hands to warm them up and rub his wounds!

Dugu Yu felt so sweet in his heart thinking about it that he almost couldn't help turning his head to pull Qin Qingyao over and give her a kiss.

"Qingqing, how did you come up with the idea of staging that stage play?"

He had never seen Qin Qingyao rehearse before, so he was really amazed today.

He couldn't imagine how a young lady like Qin Qingyao, who knew nothing about the sufferings of the world, could portray the suffering, helplessness, sacrifice of the soldiers, and the pain of their families so vividly and tearfully.

Qin Qingyao, "Isn't this just to let the world know how great my husband is, and to flatter the old lady at the same time?"

The old lady lost too much on the battlefield. Everyone in this country should remember the sacrifices and contributions of the Yang family.

"Besides, you must have many tear-jerking stories in your military career. What I have is just a drop in the bucket, the tip of the iceberg. There's no need to waste such good material!"

Dugu Yu really felt that when he was rewarded by the emperor and congratulated by all the officials in the Golden Palace, he had never felt sweeter and happier than when Qin Qingyao praised him as great.

"Who wrote the lyrics and music for the stage play and Princess Anli's sword dance? I've never heard of it before."

"Why do you think I asked someone to write it?"

"Could it be that you wrote it yourself?"

"What do you mean? Do you look down on me?"

Dugu Yu twitched his lips, "Can you write all those characters?"

Qin Qingyao raised her hand to hit him, but when she saw the bruises on his back, she couldn't bring herself to do it. Simplified Chinese characters are still characters, so why did he always suspect that she was illiterate?

After all, she is a well-educated college student, even though she hasn't graduated yet...

"Can't I just read it out loud and write it down for others?"

Dugu Yu smiled, "Okay, you are really smart!"

Qin Qingyao, "..."

"I can not only write music, I can also write poetry!"

"Yeah?"

Don't you know nothing about music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so you don't allow people to perform these at your party?

Qin Qingyao leaned close to Dugu Yu's ear and asked, "Shall I read it to you?"

Dugu Yu nodded, "Yeah."

"Ploughing the fields at noon, Along the River During the Qingming Festival! Dancing with my shadow, Compound Grass and Coral!"

Dugu Yu frowned and pursed his lips, giving a fairly fair evaluation, "At least you know how to rhyme."

Qin Qingyao: "..."

She moved closer to Dugu Yu and saw that he was indeed very serious, but the child didn't understand what she, the dirty woman, had just said.

"Listen, I will recite another poem for you! There is a ventriloquist in the capital, and from now on the king will not hold court early in the morning!"

Dugu Yu: "Your family only has two lines of poetry?"

"Gently pluck, rub, and pick, the king will no longer attend court early in the morning!"

"The hibiscus tent is warm for the spring night, and from now on the king will not attend court early in the morning!"

Dugu Yu was in a terrible state. I asked you to recite poetry, not dirty jokes!

"Is your poem called The King Who Lost His Country?"

Qin Qingyao shook her head, "No."

Dugu Yu gave her a questioning look. Qin Qingyao said, "From now on, the king will not come early. Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? I still have medicine in my hand!"

"It's okay, just keep applying it!"

That night, Qin Qingyao deeply understood what it meant to be moderate in committing suicide.

Although Dugu Yu was very thin-skinned and it was fun to tease him, when he really threw his skin aside, Qin Qingyao could only kneel down and beg for mercy!

Mid-morning of the next day, when Qin Qingyao opened her eyes in a daze, she found herself being held by someone. When she looked up, Dugu Yu had just opened his eyes.

"Did you sleep well?"

"Why didn't you go to court?"

"Didn't you say that the king would not hold court early from now on?"

Qin Qingyao said with a serious expression, "Husband, you can't do this. If you don't go to court, who will make money to support the family?"

Dugu Yu opened his mouth and bit her lips, "I kid you not! Today is the 29th, and everyone in the court is on holiday. No court will be held!"

"Your Majesty is quite humane, isn't he? Then my father and my elder brother don't have to go to court anymore?"

"Well, if I finish the things at hand, I can spend the New Year at home."

Qin Qingyao sat up immediately and said, "Then let's pack up quickly so we can get home in time for lunch!"

"You want to go back to your parents' home?"

"No, I'm planning on having you come back with me. Is there anything wrong?"

"It's rare for everyone to get together like this, and tomorrow, the 30th, we'll definitely be spending it at home. This is the first time I'm not at home for the New Year, and I'm worried my parents won't be used to it!"

Dugu Yu was successfully persuaded and quickly got up and dressed. He went to get a gift, but Qin Qingyao put it down. "I've already given out New Year's gifts, but you always make it so grand. It seems so awkward. I went to a meal and came back empty-handed!"

Well, that's your mother's home, whatever you say is what it is.

When they arrived at the Qin family, Mrs. Qin scolded them a few words, saying that Qin Qingyao was going to her parents' home during the New Year, which was not rude. However, she still warmly invited them into the house to warm up.

Minister Qin was spreading out a large piece of neatly cut red paper and writing Spring Festival couplets and the word "Fu".

"Husband, have you finished writing our Spring Festival couplets?"

"not yet."

"Then let's go back and write it quickly tonight!"

Dugu Yu nodded, "Okay."

Minister Qin looked at the young couple whispering to each other, picked up a pen and drew a big fat baby on the square red paper where he was going to write the word "Fu".

Then he handed it to Qin Qingyao, "Here, take it home and stick it on the headboard of your bed."

Qin Qingyao almost choked to death on her own saliva. Is there such a way to induce labor?

Dugu Yu readily put away the painting, with only one thought in his mind: It's not as pretty as the fat doll Qin Qingyao painted...
