Chapter 119 My little cousin is so generous

Xiao Licheng was just being asked to chat with the guests, and he was already dizzy. His mouth was dry from talking, and his face was frozen from smiling.

He finally found a gap and slipped out under the pretext of changing clothes, and walked back with his robe in hand.

Unexpectedly, he was stopped after just a dozen steps, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It's Lord Zheng!" Xiao Licheng stopped and turned around.

[Lord Zheng? Which Lord Zheng? ]

Xia Miaoyuan looked at the Lord Zheng with a rose in her hand.

"I heard that Lord Xiao likes poetry. On the tenth of this month, I will hold a banquet at home and invite several colleagues from the Dali Temple to drink and appreciate poetry together." Lord Zheng smiled and flattered.

"Please do me a favor."

[Lord Zheng of the Dali Temple, isn't that Zheng Pan, the Dali Temple Secretary.] Xia Miaoyuan's mind quickly turned, recalling the plot in the book.

[Oh, uncle, you must not go! This Zheng Pan's poetry appreciation banquet is a trap!]

Xiao Licheng frowned, turned his head and glanced, and saw his daughter and niece standing by the flower garden playing, and immediately relaxed his eyebrows and deliberately showed a relaxed expression.

"Well, I'm just so-so in poetry." Xiao Licheng said with a smile.

Xia Miaoyuan rubbed the petals of the rose vigorously and recalled: [He has a wife and six concubines at home.]

At this moment, the second prince just came back from urinating and was about to walk to the front yard. As soon as he reached the corner, he faintly heard his sister's voice, and immediately stopped and listened attentively.

[The six concubines are all as beautiful as flowers, young and beautiful. They are concubines in name, but in fact they are tools for Zheng Ping.]

[He invited Shangguan to his house to drink and appreciate poetry, but it was just a cover. Every time he would try his best to get Shangguan drunk.]

[After Shangguan was drunk, he could naturally keep him in the house to sober up overnight, and then let his followers go home to report safety, so as to get rid of him. 】

【When Shangguan fell asleep unconscious in the guest room, he asked his concubine to sneak into the room, take off her clothes and get into Shangguan's bed. 】

The second prince bit his lip in hatred when he heard this. He didn't expect that there are such shameless people in the world, and he didn't expect that there are such shameless women in the world.

Xia Miaoyuan sighed, 【Those six concubines are also pitiful. They were originally daughters of good families. Because of their poverty, they were bought back by Zheng Pan to be concubines. They originally wanted to live a peaceful life with him. Who would have thought that they would live such a life after entering the house. 】

【If they dared to disobey, they would be locked in the cellar and tortured by Zheng Pan and his vicious wife? 】

The second prince was furious when he heard this, and his eyes were glaring. In such a great country like Xia, in such a bright and clear world, there are still people who abuse women like this in the capital. It is really infuriating.

Xia Miaoyuan continued to recall, [The next morning, Zheng Pan deliberately went to the guest room in person, opened the door and called Shangguan to get up. ]

[At this time, the concubine wrapped in the quilt screamed, Shangguan woke up, and saw the scene in front of him, and was immediately scared out of his wits. The concubine then cried and said that Shangguan had forced her, and then threatened to commit suicide. ]

[Then he pretended to beat his chest and stamp his feet in pain, and suffered a lot of grievances. ]

[Shangguan thought that he had drunk and slept with his concubine, so he would immediately beg Zheng Pan not to make it public. Afterwards, in order to shut Zheng Pan up, he would promote him. 】

After hearing this, Xiao Licheng clenched his left hand behind his back into a fist.

What a great guy, Zheng Pan!

I thought that during his years in the Dali Temple, Zheng Pan didn't have any real skills, but he was always appreciated by the former temple minister. It turns out it was because of this.

Xiao Licheng tried his best to conceal his inner shock, and still dealt with Zheng Pan with a friendly face.

"Oh, Lord Zheng, I think I'd better not go. I'll make you laugh then."

Zheng Pan refused to give up: "Lord Xiao is really good at joking. We are not masters of poetry, so how could that be?"

At this time, the prince also came back from urinating, and saw the second prince standing motionless at the corner, and patted him on the shoulder.

The second prince was startled, turned around and found that it was the prince,

and quickly made a gesture to keep quiet. After making the gesture, he winked at the prince, and the prince nodded in tacit understanding.

Then, the second prince unexpectedly took the prince's hand and walked towards Xiao Licheng and the others, smiling as he walked: "Are you talking about the poetry appreciation meeting, Lord Zheng?"

Zheng Pan was a little surprised to see the prince and the second prince coming over. He immediately bowed and replied respectfully: "Yes, I am going to hold a small poetry appreciation meeting on the tenth day of this month."

The second prince clapped his hands happily: "Oh, my brother and I love poetry appreciation meetings the most."

After that, he came to Xiao Licheng again, pulled his sleeve, and said in a pleading tone: "Third uncle, if there is such a fun thing, you must take us with you."

Xiao Licheng and the prince were both stunned for a moment.

"Nephew wants to go." He said and shook Xiao Licheng's arm.

[No way, what's wrong with my second brother? I can't go, I can't go!] Xia Miaoyuan was so anxious that she plucked off the petals. Zheng

Pan was so happy that his mouth stretched to the back of his head: "If the two princes are willing to come, it will be a great honor for me. Welcome."

Xiao Licheng opened his mouth and wanted to refuse, but in this situation, it would be embarrassing to refuse again, so he nodded reluctantly and said "OK".

Zheng Pan achieved his goal and exchanged a few more words with them before returning to the front hall.

Xia Miaoyuan was so anxious that she stamped her feet.

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Xiao Licheng pulled the second prince and whispered, "Nephew, when did you start liking poetry? Uncle remembers you, but you couldn't even hand in your poetry homework!"

The prince was also puzzled: "What are you doing?"

The second prince deliberately made an unfathomable expression, pulled the two to his side, and whispered, "Of course, appreciating poetry is fake, catching bad people is real."

"This Zheng Pan's poems are full of cat stuff. I heard someone say it before. This time, the three of us will take the opportunity to punish him."

[Wow, when did the second brother become so well-informed? ] Xia Miaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the second prince say this.

Xiao Licheng and the prince also relaxed their brows.

The three chatted for a few more sentences and then returned to the front yard together.

"What are they talking about?" Xiao Wanyin shook her head.

She was only three years old this year and didn't understand any poetry.

"Oh, I suddenly miss my nanny. Miaomiao, let's go find her." Xiao Wanyin said while biting her finger.

[What do you mean by missing your nanny? I think you are addicted to milk and want to drink it! ] Xia Miaoyuan's face was full of black lines.

Xiao Wanyin smiled embarrassedly and pulled Xia Miaoyuan forward.

It was not yet time for lunch, and Xia Miaoyuan suddenly felt her stomach growling.

She reached out and touched her belly, and it was indeed full.

After playing with her little cousin for a while, the milk and rice cakes in the morning had long been digested.

"I'm hungry, eat." Xia Miaoyuan said with a look of grievance.

"Ah, you're hungry too, so I'll treat you to breastfeeding, okay? Let's go find the wet nurse! My wet nurse has plenty of milk, enough for both of us." Xiao Wanyin coaxed Xia Miaoyuan softly, and ran away with her short legs.

[No, no, I don't want to drink your wet nurse's milk! ] Xia Miaoyuan stopped, half-crouched, and tried to lower her center of gravity.

Seeing that Xia Miaoyuan didn't run with her, Xiao Wanyin turned around and pulled her hard.

Xia Miaoyuan fell down and refused to leave, shouting, "Eat candy! Eat candy!"

[Just eat two pieces of candy, you really don't need to drink milk! ]

Xiao Wanyin couldn't pull her away, so she had to withdraw her strength and let go.

"Well, you can have some candy first." As she said that, she took out two candies from her purse, and Xia Miaoyuan grabbed one from her hand.

At this moment, a slender man staggered towards them, saying painfully, "Here..." His

voice was very low and his expression was very painful.
