Silent Lover 2 (Tanhua) - Chap 115
Chapter 115
Two years later, the capital of Jingguo.
In a carriage, sat a young man with a pink face, black temples, red lips and bright teeth, who was handsome enough to make passing women blush and eyes hot, and beside him sat a pink and tender child in a fine attire.
Anyone with eyesight on the street can recognize that this is the carriage of the upstart Song Mansion in the court. Now there are two Song Mansions in the capital, one civil and one military, both of which are extremely high-ranking ministers. In order to distinguish, Song Qing’s mansion is called the Great General government.
The carriage belonged to Mr. Xiao Song’s house, and the people sitting in it were Song Liqing, the youngest prime minister since ancient times, and Song Guansheng, the youngest feudal lord since ancient times.
Song Liqing was telling a story vividly: “…the fire burned for three days and three nights, and the black dust and ashes were blown away by the wind for dozens of miles. In Loulan King City, there was nothing left that could be burned, only There are fragments of rubble and the collapsed walls of adobe bricks, and even the gold, silver, copper and iron have been refined away.”
The child was only about five years old, but he listened very engrossed. He seemed to have forgotten to eat the candied haws in his hand, and his face was serious, as if he understood everything.
“Is everyone dead?” the officer asked with his dark eyes open.
“The people in the city, 80% of them survived. They lost their homes and tried to rebuild, but strange things happened. Loulan’s water source and moat seemed to be evaporated by the fire, and it dried up day by day. How can they live without water? What about life? The people of Loulan are desperate, so they can only leave their hometowns and find another homeland.”
The official said solemnly: “It must be that the Loulan people have done something that God can’t stand, and sent down divine punishment.”
Song Liqing pinched the officer’s nose.
“And you know what God’s punishment is or not, who taught you?”
The official student didn’t mention it, but asked curiously: “What happened later?”
“There is no later.” Song Liqing thought for a while and said, “I heard from your Uncle Su Zhao…that is the merchant in the Western Regions who secretly hid you, Uncle Su Zhao. Do you remember him?”
The officer nodded: “I remember.”
“You remember ghosts, you were only so old at that time.” Song Liqing gestured, “How could you have a memory?”
“I really remember that he even gave me a gemstone ring to play with, telling me to be good and not cry.” The officer urged, “Then what happened to Loulan, please tell me, Dad.”
Song Liqing was helpless, the officials and students enlightened too early, maybe they really remembered.
“Later, some speculators went to the ruins of the Loulan King City and dug out a large piece of melted gold and made a fortune. Later, a large number of people went to Loulan to pan for gold and dug a lot of treasures from it, but those who have been to Loulan, Burns began to develop inexplicably all over the body, and even the treatment could not cure them. They said that this is the curse of the dead royal family of Loulan to the greedy. Once in the desert, even the most experienced camels may not be able to get out of it.”
The officer heard that yearning: “I want to go too.”
Song Liqing frightened him: “Aren’t you afraid of scars on the top of your head and sores on your butt?”
“That is my territory, and the curse has no effect on me.”
The Loulan Kingdom disappeared in the long river of history, but the land was granted to officials and students by Jun Qiyu.
It was also Jun Qiyu’s promise to King Loulan.
“Daddy has worked hard in court, come, eat a bunch of candied haws.”
The tone seemed to be coaxing Song Liqing.
Song Liqing readily took it and took a bite. The sweet and sour fruit was covered with a thin coating of sugar, which was full of flavor.
“You can eat too.” Song Liqing said as he passed the candied haws skewers.
The official said with disgust on his face, “I don’t like to eat this kind of kid stuff.”
Song Liqing: “…”
“Eat slowly, don’t choke on the seeds like last time.” The official student was still very worried, “Also, you are only allowed to eat one bunch a day. The kid next door to our house ate too much candied haws, and his teeth are all rotten.” It’s a long bug.”
“Yes Yes Yes.”
Song Liqing reluctantly agreed.
This word was originally said by him as a parent.
“Daddy, when can I go to my fief?”
“Wait until you are taller than me.”
Officials and students always have some weird questions, and Song Liqing has also learned to prevaricate him.
It’s just that officials and students are becoming more and more difficult to fool. Such a small child is neither afraid of gods nor ghosts, and the truth is the same.
When they returned to the Song Mansion, Xiaodi had been leaning against the screen wall and waiting for a long time in the morning. When she saw them, she immediately went up to meet them, and knelt down to hug the officials and students.
The official student stretched out a palm: “Miss Di, please respect yourself, I am no longer a three-year-old child.”
Xiaodi rolled her eyes when she was rejected, but she got used to it.
“Little ghost, so what if you are ten years old?”
“A man and a woman can’t kiss each other.” The official student said with his hands behind his back.
Xiao Di persisted: “Then what if I am a man?”
The official student wrinkled his face: “Men and men are even more forbidden to kiss.”
Xiaodi laughed so loudly that the officer and student got annoyed, and went to the study and refused to talk to her.
Xiao Di chased after Song Liqing and chattered nonstop: “Why doesn’t this little devil look like a child at all? Son, were you also so serious when you were young?”
Song Liqing grunted, and said, “It should be better than him. Sigh… This kid has been weird since he was a child. I even suspect that Po Meng missed a spoonful of soup when she gave him soup.”
The official student is precocious, to be precise, he doesn’t look like a child at all, he treats himself as an adult in his words and deeds.
The advantage is that Song Liqing doesn’t have to worry about how to nurture him at all, he has nurtured him himself, on the contrary, he takes care of Song Liqing much more.
“My lord, Ningguo’s mansion sent a greeting card, saying that he would bring his little granddaughter to visit. I think he wants to marry his granddaughter to you.” Xiaodi giggled.
Song Liqing took the greeting card and put it in a drawer before reading it.
“I will write a reply later to reject it.”
Xiaodi said again: “There is also Qing Guogong, who made a matchmaker block our door all morning.”
Song Liqing pressed his temples, but when he didn’t know how to deal with it, the officer and student got in through the crack of the door after hearing the news from nowhere.
As soon as he came in, he took out a bunch of things from the drawer and put them on the table.
“This is an important life event, Daddy, I’ll check it out for you.”
Under the watchful eyes of Song Liqing and Xiaodi, the officials and students really picked each other up.
“This won’t work, my family background is average, my father is a fourth-rank official, and he doesn’t have a title… This also doesn’t work, there are three incompetent younger brothers in the family, won’t it be impossible to post after they get married?… This is even more unacceptable, this portrait is too Ugly… This family, this family is a man, Dad, he said that he would marry you with three letters and six gifts!”
The more Song Liqing listened to the more absurd, he grabbed his ear and pulled him up from the seat.
“Children’s marriage is the order of the parents. When did the parents get married and the son decides? You are so smart, let me find a house for you to send it to.”
Xiao Di was already leaning forward and backward laughing.
“Who made your daddy so greedy?”
The study room was full of laughter, and a servant came to report.
“My lord, he is here again…”
Before Song Liqing said anything, the officials and students had already raised their eyebrows, as if encountering a formidable enemy!
“Old Devil Jun!”
