Chapter 975: Re-display of Prowess
For several days thereafter, Sun Shaozong was in a trance, worried and anxious.
For a moment, he began to suspect that everything that happened that day was just an illusion. There was no such thing as Prince Yi Zhong, and there was no such thing as the fate of becoming an immortal.
Suddenly I regretted setting the age limit so high - it is rare for people to live to seventy, let alone eighty?
If he died at the age of sixty or seventy, wouldn't it be so tragic that he would bleed?
He would have a nightmare from time to time, in which there was always an extremely ethereal, eerie and terrifying voice, shouting at him: Don’t ascend, don’t ascend!
He was so anxious and worried the whole day that he had no time to pay attention to his official duties. Even his usual social life had lost some of his enthusiasm.
It might be fine for others, but Third Sister You didn't know the truth and thought that she had lost the Second Master's favor after her mother's family supporter, the Ningguo Mansion, collapsed.
He was so panicked that he ran around the yard looking for helpers and trying to please others. He even gave away a lot of the real money that was tied to his ribs with gritted teeth.
In order to consolidate his favor, he even invited a century-old prostitute to come to his house and taught her some of her hidden skills.
Not to mention how she puts her knowledge into practice.
But on that afternoon , Sun Shaozong left the office early as usual. He was listening to Xing Xiuyan and Ping'er counting the expenses before the New Year when he was suddenly summoned by the prince.
Now is the critical moment for the inheritance of the country's foundation. Sun Erlang is in the middle of the situation, so naturally he dare not be negligent in the slightest.
So he hurriedly took out his newly made woolen coat, wrapped himself in a black bear coat, and braved the wind and snow to rush to the Prince's Mansion.
When Sun Shaozong followed the prefectural chancellor Wang Dexiu through the hall and courtyard and arrived near the back garden, he couldn't help but hesitate.
The last shadow play was performed in this garden.
It seemed like today, he suddenly called me over...
When he arrived at the hall with trepidation, Sun Shaozong saw that the membrane partition had already been removed, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He calmed himself down and bowed deeply to the prince in the middle. When he stood up and looked up, he found that in addition to the prince, there was also a humble figure standing in the hall.
Taking a closer look, those haggard yet charming eyebrows and facial features, who else could it be but Jia Lian?
He had been taken in as the prince's concubine for about half a month, and no one knew what kind of training he had received. Now, Second Master Lian was watching the nose and the nose, and he actually turned a blind eye to Sun Shaozong's arrival.
Although he had married the Crown Princess before, Sun Shaozong could not afford to look too closely at the Crown Prince's new favorite, so he hurriedly cleared his mind and respectfully asked, "Your Highness has summoned me, what is your mission?"
The prince seemed to have been waiting for him to say this.
He strode forward, almost pressing his bony chest against Sun Shaozong's waist, and then said excitedly: "My dear, the last time we did it, it was done!"
As he spoke, he shook the sleeves of his robe down to his wrists and gestured like a chicken claw: "Among the seven women prepared at that time, one of them was found to be pregnant!"
The bird Taoist priest actually accomplished the task of artificially teaching tadpoles!
Sun Shaozong didn't know whether to be happy or sad, he quickly took two steps back and bowed: "Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Your Highness!"
"Hahahaha...thanks to you for your great help, my dear!"
The prince laughed and flicked his sleeves, then punched Sun Shaozong on the shoulder. Then he rubbed his fingers with a grimace, and finally calmed down a little.
Turning back, he sat down on the chair in the middle, and said without question, "This matter is too bizarre after all. I'm afraid those gossipers may not believe it. Therefore, I plan to find some weighty witnesses to announce it to the world!"
Witness?
Since it's a witness, he must at least be at the scene, right?
Sun Shaozong was startled and tried to test carefully: "Your Highness, what do you mean..."
"Of course, we will rehearse what happened that day again - I will have to trouble you then, my dear minister."
I really want to do it again!
This time, Sun Shaozong no longer had any romantic feelings in his heart. At the beginning, he had half-heartedly agreed to have an affair with the Crown Princess. Although he was a little worried afterwards, he was not overly afraid.
After all, the parties involved in this kind of thing will definitely keep their mouths shut - besides, he had slept with many wealthy women and concubines in the royal palace before, and everything went well, didn't he?
But now the prince actually wants him to perform one more time in public!
Especially since the audience are all "important witnesses".
And since it is of great importance, it probably cannot be easily silenced afterwards.
If someone discovered my identity and spread the news...
“Your Highness!”
He quickly rejected it, saying, "Isn't this inappropriate? If someone recognizes me..."
"Don't worry, my dear. By then, with a layer of leather wall between us, who will be able to recognize that it's you inside?"
“Your Highness!”
Sun Shaozong didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "My stature is rare even in the army, please ..."
"No need to say more!"
The prince impatiently threw his sleeves and said sullenly, "It has to be you two !"
As he said this, he stared at Sun Shaozong and said, "If you don't agree, do you want her to welcome guests?"
Without waiting for Sun Shaozong to say anything else, he made the decision: "The date will be set on the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, when the ban on the capital city is lifted. At that time, I will show my prowess in front of the important officials of the court and the imperial envoys!"
hehe……
Even if everything goes well at that time, you will be nothing more than a jerk-off in front of the screen. What kind of heroism can you show?
Seeing that the prince was determined, even though Sun Shaozong was very nervous, he could only bow and agree while secretly complaining.
After that, the prince took the opportunity to fantasize about how he would do whatever he wanted and take revenge after he ascended the throne. All of his fantasies were about tyranny and stupidity.
Although Sun Shaozong never expected him to be a wise and capable ruler, it was indeed a bit too much to start making things so miserable before he even ascended the throne.
Plus, he was forced to serve as a spellcasting material in public...
This made Sun Erlang feel some doubt and regret about the choices he had made in recent years.
But now that things have come to this, can we really abandon the crown prince and support someone else to ascend the throne and become emperor?
Please, I am just a small official in the Dali Temple, not Yi Yin or Huo Guang who have great power in the court!
…
He flattered her against his will and finally waited for the prince to serve him tea and see him off.
Sun Shaozong walked out of the back garden with mixed feelings. After walking another hundred steps or so, he was surprised to find that the person leading the way was not Wang Dexiu, but Jia Lian, who looked like a clay or wooden sculpture.
"Second Brother Lian."
He hurriedly bowed to make amends and wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
After holding it in for a long while, he said, "I have already opened up the joints on Uncle Shi's side, so there will be no physical pain."
Just as he was hesitating whether to mention Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian lowered his head and smiled softly, saying softly: "I can't be more relieved to leave my wife and children to Erlang."
Uh~
Even with Sun Shaozong's thick skin, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he heard this.
Fortunately, Jia Lian did not continue the topic. He raised his head and looked at Sun Shaozong steadily, saying word by word: "Erlang may look down on me, but if Erlang needs me in the future, I will not mind even if I sacrifice my life!"
"this……"
Who says it’s the hardest to appreciate the favor of a beautiful woman?
This combination of man upon man is a burden that a real man cannot bear!
