……

These days, all kinds of things are important, but what Zhao Junchen attaches most importance to is the upcoming palace banquet.

As mentioned above, this palace banquet is actually a blind date held by Emperor Deqing for Zhao Junchen.

And Cui Qianxue, the youngest granddaughter of the former cabinet elder Cui Mian, Chen Zhirong, the second daughter of Chen You, the Duke of Jingguo, and Su Xiuning, the eldest daughter of Su Changyi, the governor of Nanzhili, these three women of appropriate age are the marriage options designated by Emperor Deqing for Zhao Junchen.

In the past few days, although Zhao Junchen has been constantly managing the government and the opposition, planning and planning, and meeting with friends, he has not forgotten to inquire about the details of these three families - such as the influence of power, such as character and style, such as network of contacts, and so on.

After comparing each other and considering it comprehensively, Zhao Junchen can make the most beneficial choice for himself.

Of course, what Zhao Junchen is exploring is only the family situation of these three families, as for the three women who are on a blind date with him next, what is their appearance? What is the temperament? How's the review? Zhao Junchen was indifferent, although the spies also dutifully inquired about a lot of relevant news, but Zhao Junchen just glanced at it and threw the information aside, and then ignored it again.

In fact, Zhao Junchen does not pay attention to the appearance, character, and personality of his future wife. As long as the other party can bring the most help to Zhao Junchen, even if she is as ugly as no salt, has a jealous temperament, and has a bad character, Zhao Junchen will still marry her, at most she will be placed in the back house and ignored.

What's more, Zhao Junchen himself is not a good person. How many things he has done against his will, even he can't count. So I don't dare to expect that I can marry a good girl - if it is really a good girl, whether Zhao Junchen himself can be worthy of others is another matter - after all, the only thing Zhao Junchen can show off to others is his power and wealth, but true love has nothing to do with these!

For Zhao Junchen, his choice of marriage has long had nothing to do with the pure thing of "love". It's not for the sake of future generations, it's just for pure profit!

Can you save yourself a few years of struggle, will it help your career, and can you achieve your goals more easily......

These are all the things that Zhao Junchen considers when facing the choice of marriage.

Needless to say, although Zhao Junchen's power and influence in the court are few and far between, his vision and ideas about marriage are actually not fundamentally different from those little white faces who "eat soft rice" and "pong rich women".

Despicable and cheeky. It is the basic quality of politicians!

In fact, sometimes, thinking of some of his thoughts and actions, even Zhao Junchen himself will have a feeling of contempt, but when faced with a choice again, Zhao Junchen will still choose the path that can get the most benefits. Although this road is dirty and rugged, to it is a shortcut.

People can't resist the temptation of shortcuts, and this is especially true of Zhao Junchen.

…………

On the way to the palace, Zhao Junchen sat quietly in the sedan chair, thinking about his various mentalities. I couldn't help but laugh at myself.

Now he is accustomed to being despicable. It's a terrible thing to get used to now — although Zhao doesn't want to change.

"But I don't know, I keep walking on this road, what will be the final result? Is it still unable to escape the fate of becoming the emperor's night pot, and finally being beheaded by the family, the nine clans and leaving a stench for 10,000 years? Or will you be able to climb to the pinnacle of power, and finally stop being constrained by others and do what you really want to do? And a hundred years later, how will the history book describe what I did in this life? But in any case, in the "Traitorous Ministers", I will inevitably be among them. ”

For a while, Zhao Junchen thought far ahead.

Then, Zhao Junchen shook his head and didn't think about it anymore.

These things are too far away, Zhao Junchen can't see so far, and he doesn't want to see so far.

And just when Zhao Junchen was thinking, outside the sedan chair, there was a sudden burst of hawker shouting.

There are many people who sell soup noodles, those who sell baked cakes, and those who sell oil cakes.

But it was Zhao Junchen's sedan chair that came to a commercial street, and after passing through the commercial street, he turned to the official road before he could go to the palace.

After hearing the cries of these vendors, Zhao Junchen's heart moved, but he suddenly remembered the bean curd stall he frequented a few years ago.

The bean curd in that stall is quite delicious, there was a period of time last year, Zhao Junchen would go there to eat a bowl every day after going to court, but when the New Year was approaching, the old man who set up the stall returned to his hometown for the New Year, and Zhao Junchen had not seen it for a while.

Looking back now, Zhao Junchen now misses the taste of bean curd at that stall.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Zhao Junchen suddenly said outside the sedan chair: "Qingyan, go and see, the bean curd stall we frequented a few years ago is still there?" ”

Outside the sedan chair, after hearing Zhao Junchen's instructions, Xu Qingyan was slightly stunned and asked, "Young master, is it possible that you want to eat bean curd now?" ”

Zhao Junchen nodded and said, "Yes, when I think of the taste of bean curd in that stall, I suddenly feel a little greedy." ”

Xu Qingyan hesitated: "But ...... Young master, you are about to go to the palace for a banquet, it is a palace banquet, what delicacies are there? Why eat bean curd here to occupy your stomach? When is it different to eat bean curd? Besides, what if you get too late here and end up being late? ”

Zhao Junchen said indifferently: "Don't worry, there is still more than half an hour before the time limit, we can't be late anyway, and even if we go now, we can only wait outside the palace, which is quite boring...... In addition, there are indeed countless delicacies in the palace banquet, but at that time, I may not have the heart to taste them, and I don't have the opportunity to eat much for the sake of image. When the time comes, I am hungry but embarrassed to put down the chopsticks, which is really uncomfortable. ”

Xu Qingyan thought about it. It is precisely this reason that he agreed: "Okay, young master, you wait in the sedan chair first, and I'll go see if the stall is set up." ”

Xu Qingyan has always been sharp-eyed and fast-legged, but after a moment, he has already returned and replied, "Young Master." The stall was put out, that is, the business was more lively than before, and there was almost no place, but fortunately, at the end of the New Year last year, we saw that the old man who set up the stall was about to go back to his hometown for the New Year, so he gave him a red envelope, so the old man still remembered me. There were just two empty slots just now, so they specially helped us stay. ”

Zhao Junchen smiled: "That old man is in love. ”

Xu Qingyan pursed his lips. said: "Young Master, the red envelope you gave him a few years ago, although in our eyes it is just scattered silver, but it is his income for a month or two, and he naturally dare not forget us." ”

Zhao Junchen laughed again and said, "You." You know that you think of people in a bad way, although you are used to seeing villains, and most of them are villains around you, but not everyone in this world is like us, although there are not many simple and kind people. But there are always some. ”

Between talking to Xu Qingyan, Zhao Junchen had already changed into casual clothes in a sedan chair. Then he lifted the sedan curtain and came out, and then instructed the sedan chair driver and his entourage to wait on the side of the road, and then walked towards the stall under the leadership of Xu Qingyan.

…………

Not far from the stall, Zhao Junchen took a look, and sure enough, as Xu Qingyan said, the business was more lively than before, although the number of tables in the stall was doubled, it was still full of customers coming and going, one after another.

Compared with last year, at this time, there is another man and a woman next to the old man who is setting up a stall to help, it seems that it is the son and daughter-in-law of the old man, but because there are too many guests, they are still overwhelmed.

And the old man who set up the stall is a simple person, since he received Zhao Junchen's red envelope a year ago, he has been talking in his heart, and now he knows that Zhao Junchen is coming, so he pays more attention, and now after seeing Zhao Junchen appear, he put down the work at hand and hurriedly greeted him.

"Uncle, business is good." Coming to the booth and sitting with Xu Qingyan on the vacant seat specially reserved by the old man, Zhao Junchen greeted with a smile.

The old man smiled all over his face, and said again and again: "Thanks to you, thanks to you." ”

Zhao Junchen shook his head and smiled: "The bean curd you sell at home tastes good, and naturally more and more people will patronize it, so how can it be thanks to me?" ”

Between small talk, seeing that the business is booming, the surrounding environment is noisy, and the old man is talking to himself, there are many guests urging, so Zhao Junchen didn't say more, just waved his hand and said: "Boss, don't patronize me, otherwise you will offend other guests, and I will have something to do in a while, and it is not good to talk to you more, you go first, I have the old rule here, two bowls of bean curd and ten fritters, serve them as much as possible." ”

Seeing Zhao Junchen say this, and seeing that the other guests were indeed waiting in a hurry, the old man had no choice but to nod again and again, and said, "Okay, two bowls of bean curd and ten fritters, I will bring them to you immediately." ”

As he spoke, the old man turned his head and prepared for Zhao Junchen.

And when Zhao Junchen was waiting, he looked around, and suddenly there was a stall selling fire next to the old man's bean curd stall, thinking that he had never eaten fire since he came to this world, so he instructed Xu Qingyan: "Qingyan, go to the side and buy two fire, we haven't eaten it for a long time, and we miss it." ”

This time, Xu Qingyan did not question Zhao Junchen's decision, but after nodding, he got up and went to buy fire.

It's just that, maybe it's because the business of the bean curd stall is too good, and even the stall selling fire next to it is also doing a hot business, and there are more than a dozen customers lining up in a long line, it seems that Xu Qingyan wants to buy the fire and has to wait for a while.

And in this way, the seat next to Zhao Junchen was empty because of Xu Qingyan's departure.

During this period, because of the booming business, there are constantly guests who want to sit here, but they will be reminded by Zhao Junchen that there are already people here, perhaps because Zhao Junchen now has a temperament of "ranking on people", so after getting Zhao Junchen's reminder, no one continues to entangle.

It's just that such things always happen, but it is just a cup of tea, and it has already appeared five or six times, and Zhao Junchen is gradually a little impatient with this situation.

"If I knew this, it would be better to let Qingyan occupy a seat here, and I will line up to buy ...... fire."

Just as Zhao Junchen was muttering to himself, a faint fragrant wind suddenly rushed in. In the blink of an eye, a young girl suddenly sat down beside Zhao Junchen.

The girl looked old. About sixteen or seventeen years old, the figure is petite and plump, it belongs to the kind of "fat but not fat, slender but not thin" natural good figure, white and tender skin makes people shine, wearing a cyan long skirt, holding the most popular falling horse in the door of the mansion today, it seems that he has a good background.

It's just that she lowered her head at this time, but people couldn't see her appearance clearly.

But. Although she was a young girl, Zhao Junchen didn't intend to give up her seat because of this, so she reminded again: "Girl, there are already people in this position." ”

After hearing Zhao Junchen's reminder, the girl's body trembled at first, as if she was frightened, and quickly raised her show to look at Zhao Junchen.

And then. Her face was displayed in front of Zhao Junchen's eyes.

This is a beautiful embryo, with a fair goose egg face, delicate and delicate facial features, and a pair of bright big eyes, the eyelashes on the eyes are long and thick, making her big eyes appear more distinct, and these big eyes flicker, but also make her temperament more lively and coquettish.

After looking at Zhao Junchen twice. The girl's expression relaxed slightly, and then said in an eager voice: "This son, please let me hide here for a while, someone is chasing me, and I will leave as soon as they pass." ”

The voice is eager though. But it is crisp and moving, with a certain kind of unworldly smoothness and straightforwardness.

And after hearing the girl's explanation. Zhao Junchen appeared, the girl was in a hurry before, and after sitting down, she hung down and shrunk her body, with a little panic in her expression, as if she was really avoiding someone.

It's just that for the girl in front of him, Zhao Junchen always feels a little familiar, as if he has seen it somewhere.

This is very strange, since Zhao Junchen came to this era, because of his sensitive relationship and his own habit of seeking flowers and asking willows, he has not been in contact with many women, and with the beauty of the girl in front of him, if he has really seen it, Zhao Junchen should be impressed.

But Zhao Junchen searched for the memories in his mind, but he still didn't have the slightest impression.

And at the same time that Zhao Junchen was strange in his heart, he was looking at the girl for too long in his distraction, but in the eyes of others, it seemed that Zhao Junchen was a disciple who was stupid because of the girl's beauty.

The girl obviously thought so, seeing that Zhao Junchen's gaze was fixed on her face and did not leave, the girl's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and a trace of strange anger flashed between her expressions, but she did not have the shyness that ordinary girls should have, but stared at Zhao Junchen with big eyes, and said in a crisp voice: "Childe, I see that you are also a scholar, please pay attention to your demeanor." ”

After hearing the girl's reproach, Zhao Junchen realized that he had lost his temper, so he smiled apologetically and asked, "I'm sorry, it's my gaffe, and I hope the girl will forgive me, but I don't know who is chasing the girl?" Is there anything I can do to help? ”

While speaking, Zhao Junchen couldn't help but look at the girl a few times, only to see that the girl's clothes were elegant, and the temperament between raising her hands and feet was not something that a small family could cultivate.

Hearing Zhao Junchen's inquiry, the girl hesitated for a moment, but did not answer, just hung her head and did not speak, occasionally quietly raised her head and looked left and right, as if the person who captured her was close to the left.

Obviously, the impression left on her by Zhao Junchen just now was too bad, like a disciple, so this girl chose to ignore Zhao Junchen.

Seeing the girl's attitude, Zhao Junchen couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.

It just so happened that at this time, the old man who set up the stall walked towards Zhao Junchen's position with two bowls of bean curd, and behind the old man, his daughter-in-law was holding a plate of fried dough sticks.

When he came to Zhao Junchen's seat, he saw that Zhao Junchen's side had changed, and the old man couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

But the old man was an honest man, so he didn't ask much, just put the douhua fritters in front of Zhao Junchen with his daughter-in-law, and asked, "What else does the son need?" The mustard we have recently sold here also tastes good, would you like to try it too? ”

Zhao Junchen nodded and said, "Since the old man said it was good, let's try a small plate, but ......"

While speaking, Zhao Junchen pointed to the daughter-in-law beside the old man and asked, "Uncle, this is your daughter-in-law, right?" Can she have spare clothes with her now? ”

The old man was stunned again, and asked: "The oil is splashed here, and the clothes are neither dirty nor durable, and the daughter-in-law does bring a change of clothes." But I don't know why you're asking this, Childe? ”

Zhao Junchen smiled slightly, and pointed to the girl next to him. said, "Can you borrow it and wear it for this girl for a while?" Don't worry, I'll return it to my husband in a while. ”

Although the old man didn't know Zhao Junchen's intentions, he still agreed, waved his hand again and again, and said: "Where is the son, a rough dress, and you are the son." Old man, where else can I rest assured. ”

As he spoke, the old man had already instructed his daughter-in-law beside him: "Go and bring the spare clothes and put them on the young lady next to the son." ”

The daughter-in-law there was also very responsible, and after hearing her father-in-law's words, she nodded obediently, and without asking why, she turned around and went to get the spare clothes.

And it wasn't until this time that the girl next to Zhao Junchen reacted to what was wrong. Raising his head again, his bright big eyes stared at Zhao Junchen, and he asked with some dissatisfaction, "Why do you want me to wear other people's clothes?" And you! I don't know you well, so why do you want to meddle in your own affairs and ask people to change my clothes without my consent? ”

Zhao Junchen smiled and pointed to the cyan dress worn by the girl. asked, "If I'm not mistaken, this dress on your body is made of Su embroidery, right?" If you look at the clothes worn by the people around you, most of them are just coarse cloths, don't you think you are very eye-catching in this? I don't know who is chasing you, but if you are wearing this garment. I'm afraid they'll see you at a glance, and it's useless for you to shrink here. ”

Heard Zhao Junchen's reminder. The girl showed her conspicuousness, and let out a soft "ah", her cheeks slightly red.

After the old man's daughter-in-law brought spare clothes, although she was not used to coarse cloth clothes, the girl still draped it on her body and covered her precious Suzhou embroidered dress.

When the girl put on coarse cloth clothes, Zhao Junchen pointed to the girl's show and said, "This style is a falling horse, right?" I heard that it has been very popular among the ladies recently, that is, it is dignified and lively, and it is really good-looking, but don't you think this style is also very conspicuous? Especially with a coarse cloth shirt, it is even more eye-catching than just now. ”

The girl was stunned again, stretched out her little hand and touched her style, but only then did she react, and hurriedly put down her hair.

As the show fell, a faint fragrance wafted in front of Zhao Junchen's nose.

Well, pear blossom flavor, this girl should have used the pancreas of "Yuerong Fang".

After subconsciously taking a light breath, Zhao Junchen said again: "Also, don't shrink your body or hang your head, you look like this, you are hiding from people, or it is easy to be ...... by others."

Next, Zhao Junchen continued to point out many flaws in the girl.

It's just that, maybe it was deliberate, Zhao Junchen didn't say all the flaws of the girl in one breath, but said one after another, and then talk about another point after the girl changed a little, so that the girl hurriedly cleaned up for a long time, and Zhao Junchen was admiring it on the side.

After the girl finally cleaned up, Zhao Junchen suddenly kept silent.

The girl was pointed out by Zhao Junchen because she had too many flaws, but she had no self-confidence, and now seeing that Zhao Junchen suddenly stopped talking, she couldn't help asking, "Are there any other flaws?" ”

Zhao Junchen glanced at the girl with a smile and asked, "Huh?" Finally stop disliking me for being nosy? ”

After hearing Zhao Junchen's joke, the girl's fair cheeks were slightly red, and then she glared at Zhao Junchen again, and said strangely: "You are a ...... Deliberately looking at my jokes! ”

Zhao Junchen deliberately showed a puzzled expression, and asked rhetorically, "Why can't I see your jokes?" ”

"You ......" The person that the girl befriends on weekdays, whether it is a gentleman who is polite or a lady who is demure, how can she ever hear such a thick and direct rhetorical question? For a while, her eyes were wide and round, she stammered, but she didn't know how to answer, she looked quite cute, but she finally found her own reason: "You are a dignified man, when you see me as a woman in distress, not only do you not want to help, but you also deliberately ridicule it, it is not a gentleman's doing!" ”

Showing weakness seems to be a woman's instinct, and it can always be a reason.

But Zhao Junchen retorted: "First of all, if I hadn't had the heart to help you, I wouldn't have pointed out so many flaws for you just now, and now you should be grateful to me; Secondly, I have never said that I am a gentleman, and no one has ever thought of me as a gentleman, so you had better not demand me with the standards of a gentleman; Finally, I don't think of a runaway girl either. It will be a poor woman in distress. ”

After hearing the words "running away from home", the girl was stunned again. The round eyes also widened again, and his expression was full of coquettishness, and he asked in surprise: "You, how do you know?" ”

Zhao Junchen replied leisurely: "Look at your exquisite clothes, you also have a few valuable ornaments on your body, and your temperament is definitely not from a small family, so you will hide from people and chase you, obviously it is not a drama of a wealthy family robbing the people's daughters, besides." When you are being pursued, although you are panicked, you do not show fear, and it is obvious that even if you are chased, you will never be hurt too much...... Considering your age and the temperament you display, the answer is obvious, but it's because something doesn't go your way. So it's just a gamble to run away from home, and now the people chasing you are your family, am I right? ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Junchen shook his head lightly and said, "Honestly." I regret helping you now, you are a little girl, and now that you have run away from home, your family must be very worried about you. ”

Maybe it's because of the conversation between each other that the girl has unloaded her defense, or maybe it's Zhao Junchen's intelligence that makes the girl have a psychology of asking for advice. So after hearing Zhao Junchen's words, the girl finally stopped hiding anything. After pursing his lips slightly, he said: "Grandfather, they won't worry about me, they will only worry about the future of the family, for this, they even don't hesitate to ask me to talk about marriage with a big corrupt official, even if I can't ask him, how can they worry about me!" ”

As she spoke, the girl looked aggrieved.

And Zhao Junchen on the side, after hearing the girl's words, couldn't help but be stunned.

Big corrupt officials?

Talking about marriage?

Zhao Junchen suddenly felt that the girl's words made him a little inexplicably familiar.

Then, after Zhao Junchen looked at the girl carefully, he suddenly shook his head with a smile, and said, "What a coincidence...... What a coincidence...... There is such a coincidence in this world......"

It turned out that the girl in front of her was Cui Qianxue, the youngest granddaughter of the old Cui Mian in the former cabinet, and Cui Qianxue, who was about to meet Zhao Junchen on a blind date in the palace banquet!

It's just that Zhao Junchen only saw her portrait at the beginning, and he didn't pay too much attention to it when he saw it, and the portrait was different from the real person after all, so he didn't recognize it until now.

I have to say that Cui Qianxue is more beautiful than in the portrait, as her name suggests, with beautiful appearance and skin Saixue.

Zhao Junchen didn't expect that Cui Qianxue ran away from home before she went on a blind date with her!

Zhao Junchen didn't expect that when Cui Qianxue ran away from home, he would meet him in this place and at this time!

In later generations, there was another saying that "all kinds of coincidences in life are often more interesting than dramas", and now it seems that this is indeed the case.

For a while, Zhao Junchen's expression was weird, as if he was smiling.

After hearing Zhao Junchen's words, Cui Qianxue was slightly stunned and asked, "What is the coincidence?" ”

Zhao Junchen shook his head, hiding the abnormality in his expression, and just asked with interest: "It's nothing, just talk to yourself, you better talk about your own affairs, maybe I can help you come up with some ideas." ”

Cui Qianxue is not very old, and she lives in the boudoir all the year round, she has a delicate temperament, and she has no scheming, and now she is interested in asking Zhao Junchen for advice, so as soon as Zhao Junchen asked, she explained endlessly, and even forgot what she was looking for for for a while.

In fact, even if Cui Qianxue didn't explain, Zhao Junchen could roughly guess what was going on.

…………

As mentioned above, Cui Mian, the old man in the former cabinet, is a person who cherishes his life, so he has a good reputation, and most of the people who get along with the Su family on weekdays are Qingliu or folk Confucianism.

And Cui Qianxue grew up, and often because of her grandfather's good reputation, she was often praised and sought after by the people around her.

In this kind of compliment, Cui Qianxue's heart gradually sprouted a "sense of justice" - the reputation of being virtuous and upright, and the act of helping the people and saving the world, in Cui Qianxue's view, is a fashionable behavior that can be praised by everyone, so Cui Qianxue has always demanded this from herself.

Since she became sensible, Cui Qianxue would often do some good deeds - for example, she would give her monthly pocket money to the poor in the capital, for example, she would often urge her family to open porridge sheds to help the poor, for example, she would give food that her family could not eat to beggars on the roadside - and then through guò, these good deeds were praised and thanked, and she was tired of it.

But in essence, Cui Qianxue did this just to get praise and compliments from others. Other girls show off their ornaments and clothes, but Cui Qianxue is because of her growth experience. But he likes to show off his "sense of justice", but there is no fundamental difference.

In fact. Throughout the ages, there have been many people who have had a similar mentality.

Under such circumstances, Cui Qianxue, who prides herself on being noble and upright, can meet and go on a blind date with a big corrupt official like Zhao Junchen, or even talk about marriage, Cui Qianxue is naturally very resistant.

When the news spread, the pity of the people around her, the ridicule or alienation of her peers also made Cui Qianxue even more unacceptable.

Therefore, Cui Qianxue has been in the past few days. or a big temper, or a cry of begging, reluctant to meet Zhao Junchen, but Cui Mian is a person who cherishes his life, because he cherishes his body, so Cui Mian has a good reputation, but also because of his life, so Cui Mian dare not break his promise to Emperor Deqing. So naturally, he will not pay attention to Cui Qianxue's attitude.

So, out of the firm "sense of justice" in her heart, Cui Qianxue ran away from home without hesitation.

It's just that I grew up in a deep boudoir since I was a child, and I have long been accustomed to the life of clothes and food to open my mouth, although I ran away from home without thinking. But what to do after running away from home, Cui Qianxue didn't have any consideration.

In fact, not long after Cui Qianxue ran away from home, the matter was revealed by the Cui family, and now everyone in the Cui family is moving. Looking for Cui Qianxue's traces everywhere, Cui Qianxue has no hiding skills at all. I was almost caught several times, but just now I saw that the business near the bean flower stall was booming and people were coming and going, so I came here to hide again, and I also met Zhao Junchen himself.

Cui Qianxue has said a lot, but if her experience is summed up, this is probably it.

…………

After listening to Cui Qianxue's explanation, Zhao Junchen sighed and said: "I actually asked you to talk about marriage with a big corrupt official like Zhao Junchen, although the marriage should indeed be decided by your parents and elders, but they really didn't consider your feelings." ”

Cui Qianxue only felt that Zhao Junchen had said that she was in her heart, so she couldn't help nodding her head again and again, and said, "That's it, it's a pity that my grandfather didn't listen to my opinion at all, and he insisted that I meet Zhao Junchen at the palace banquet today...... That Zhao Junchen is a big corrupt official, and he must be hateful, I don't want to see him. ”

Zhao Junchen didn't care about Cui Qianxue's malicious speculation, this feeling of being disgusted, Zhao Junchen was already familiar with it, just smiled and nodded: "Yes, when you encounter this kind of thing, you are really wronged, because of the blind date with Zhao Junchen, you must have received a lot of criticism from the people around you, right?" ”

Cui Qianxue nodded again and again, and said aggrievedly: "Yes, several of my friends have alienated me because of this incident." ”

Zhao Junchen still sighed: "A person's reputation is quite important, because it will be related to a person's interpersonal relationships, people are divided into groups, things are gathered by like, gentlemen will only intersect with gentlemen, villains will only get along with villains, this incident has affected your reputation, and naturally it has affected your interpersonal relationships, being alienated by friends, being ridiculed by people around you, this kind of thing must be very uncomfortable, right?" ”

Hearing Zhao Junchen's inquiry, Cui Qianxue only felt that she was more and more wronged, and her eyes were a little red.

And Zhao Junchen continued: "So, I can fully understand your running away from home this time, because only in this way can you maintain your reputation, and keep your reputation, in order to maintain your connections, and in order to continue to get those compliments among friends, compared to this, how anxious your family will be, and whether the family will commit the crime of bullying the king because of this, is it not so important, right?" ”

The front was fine, but when she heard Zhao Junchen's words behind her, Cui Qianxue's delicate body suddenly trembled, and her pretty face was faintly white, as if she had just thought of this.

"You...... What do you mean by that? ”

"People are always easily deceived by illusions, and many times, this illusion is often self-inflicted." Zhao Junchen sighed softly and said slowly: "And your current appearance is exactly like this...... I can feel it in your words. You seem to be quite proud of your nobility and decency, so you disdain to be in the company of Zhao Junchen and others, let alone talk about marriage......

But you should also think carefully, where do these 'noble and upright' of yours come from? Is it because you have truly experienced the world and understood the sufferings of the people, so that you have such a character? Or is it because of the compliments of the people around you that you think it's something to brag about? That's why you're trying so hard to show yourself?

And you ran away from home this time because you really have a noble character, so you disdain to meet Zhao Junchen and others? Or is it because you are worried that after the blind date with Zhao Junchen. Will you be ridiculed and alienated by your friends, so that you can no longer be complimented by others?

If it's the former. Running away from home at this time will bring a lot of trouble to the family, but it is still a correct choice; But if it's the latter, just because of some of your own vanity, just because of the criticism of some people around you, you should also think about it seriously. Is it worth it? ”

Zhao Junchen's words, Cui Qianxue never thought about it, and subconsciously wanted to refute it, but suddenly realized that she couldn't find any reason to refute!

Because. As Zhao Junchen said, what she has been worried about the most these days is the attitude of the people around her. And not something else! And although she has indeed done a lot of good deeds over the years, when she does these things, all she looks forward to in her heart is the praise and compliment of the people around her! In fact, after every good deed she has done. They can't wait to show off!

Therefore, even if her greatest pride was degraded by Zhao Junchen as worthless, Cui Qianxue couldn't find any reason to fight back!

Could it be that all the virtues and sense of justice that I have adhered to in my heart over the years? Is it just vanity?

Cui Qianxue's face was faintly pale, and a pair of small hands were clenched.

Sometimes. That's it, when things are thought to be deep and thorough, there are often some unexpected conclusions.

And this kind of conclusion is often unwilling to accept it.

"You...... Do you think what I did when I was a child, and this time I ran away from home, was just because of vanity? Cui Qianxue still stared at Zhao Junchen with big eyes, but her gaze was not pressing, but a little dazed.

Zhao Junchen shook his head and said: "Whether it is out of vanity, I don't know, and I don't judge it, but I know that in this world, there is light before there is darkness, because only when you know what light is, can you understand what darkness is, and vice versa." And like you, who have lived in the boudoir since childhood, have never seen what 'evil' is, how can you understand what 'good' is? I never know what 'evil' is, how can I know what 'right' is? Since we don't know what 'good' and 'right' are, how can we demand ourselves based on this? It's just self-deception. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Junchen suddenly thought of the crown prince Zhu and Yu, in fact, the "justice" that the prince Zhu and Yu insisted on was somewhat similar to Cui Qianxue in some respects, but it was more of the brainwashing and indoctrination of Qingliu to him. Therefore, although Zhu Heyu always insists on "justice", he often does not know what justice is, and in the end he will only run into a full bag.

Between speaking, Zhao Junchen's expression was indifferent, and he only said a few words, but the blow to Cui Qianxue was quite big.

What has always been insisted on is only hypocritical self-deception in the end, and this kind of blow is very understandable.

…………

On the other side, looking at Cui Qianxue's dazed appearance, Zhao Junchen sighed slightly with a little guilt.

Cui Qianxue is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and she has always lived in the boudoir, and it is normal not to understand what good and evil are.

And expecting some of their actions to be praised by the people around them is also a normal mentality for teenagers and girls at this age.

It can be said that Cui Qianxue has been doing nothing wrong!

Moreover, no matter what kind of mentality Cui Qianxue has, she has done a lot of good deeds over the years, and this alone is much stronger than Zhao Junchen.

This debunked her true thoughts, and deprecated her persistence and belief over the years to worthless, which was too cruel for the naïve Cui Qianxue.

But Zhao Junchen had to do this, the next palace banquet was very important to Zhao Junchen, and for various considerations, Zhao Junchen did not want any accidents and mistakes.

Therefore, Zhao Junchen can only do this, let Cui Qianxue realize her true thoughts, defeat the "justice" she insists on, and then let her go home obediently, and under the leadership of her grandfather Cui Mian, she will meet Zhao Junchen again at the palace banquet.

However, looking at Cui Qianxue's lost and dazed appearance, Zhao Junchen couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart.

So, after hesitating for a moment, Zhao Junchen said again: "To be honest, I am not a good person, but I am convinced that there must be true justice in this world!" But at the same time, most of the "justice" in this world is just a false fake, and they are dressed in the cloak of "justice". But there's something else inside. The so-called justice, most of the time. It's just a slogan that people need to get benefits, so it's not just you, there are countless people in the world who are using the word 'justice', so you don't have to be at a loss because of this. ”

After hearing Zhao Junchen's words, Cui Qianxue seemed a little incomprehensible, and still looked at Zhao Junchen with blank eyes.

In fact, these truths that Zhao Junchen said are for Cui Qianxue today. It's really too profound.

After sighing, Zhao Junchen continued to explain: "In the eyes of the world, those clear streams in the court are symbols of justice, and those corrupt officials and traitors are representatives of evil, but in fact. The reason why Qingliu insists on the so-called 'justice' is mostly just out of interest considerations! You have to understand that profit is not only money and power, but also fame, and in officialdom, the greedy person becomes a corrupt official. Those who are greedy for power will become powerful ministers, and those who are greedy for fame will often become clear streams! - If the 'justice' in the mouth of the Qingliu people cannot continue to bring them a good reputation, then how many of them can continue to insist on the so-called justice in their own mouth? ”

Speaking of this, a sneer flashed at the corner of Zhao Junchen's mouth. He also said, "Everyone in the world thinks that the way of a gentleman." It is the way of justice, the way of the villain, and the way of evil, but in fact, the words of the gentlemen in this world are often always contradictory, such as 'good birds choose trees to perch on' and 'loyal ministers do not matter to the two masters'!

Sometimes, if you can get greater benefits by selling the old master, or fame, power, or wealth, then there will be many 'people with lofty ideals' in this world, shouting the slogan of 'good birds choose trees to perch on, and ministers will faint with the lord', and they will not hesitate to change their appearance, and insist that they are 'righteous', no matter what kind of kindness the old master has had for them!

Sometimes, if you can get greater benefits by following the Lord, or fame, power, or wealth, then there will still be many 'people with lofty ideals' in this world, chanting the slogan of 'loyal ministers do not matter to two masters, and good women do not marry two husbands', and continue to follow their original masters, and insist that they are 'righteous', even if their masters are mediocre.

Therefore, most of the time, 'justice' is just a slogan, and it is a very useful slogan, and the relevant principles are there, both positive and negative, depending on how you choose. Even Zhao Junchen, who is about to meet you, although he is a well-known corrupt official, maybe one day, even he will shout the slogan of justice with righteous words.

So, you don't have to be at a loss, because in this world you are not only using the word justice, in fact, everyone is doing it, not to mention that you have never had bad intentions, and you have indeed done a lot of good deeds over the years, no matter what your purpose, and these good deeds and good deeds cannot be changed. ”

With Zhao Junchen's detailed explanation, Cui Qianxue finally understood Zhao Junchen's reasoning.

Then, Cui Qianxue's big eyes, which were originally blank, gradually became a little brighter.

The mentality of people is like this, some things that are not acceptable to the original, if there are many people who are also the same, although the situation remains the same, but the mood will always be much more comfortable.

It's just that Zhao Junchen's words, although they comforted Cui Qianxue, but also completely changed Cui Qianxue's mentality, so that she no longer regards justice as a noble character, which is good or bad for Cui Qianxue's future growth and change, but it is difficult to say.

…………

After a while, Cui Qianxue left the bean curd stall.

Since the justice she insisted on was completely denied because of Zhao Junchen's words, there was no reason for Cui Qianxue to continue to run away from home.

As Zhao Junchen said before, if it is just for some vanity, it will bring great trouble to the family, it really shouldn't be.

So Cui Qianxue left, planning to go home, and then followed her grandfather Cui Mian to the palace banquet.

Now there is still more than half an hour before the start of the palace banquet, and she will not have time to go back at this time.

It's just that when she left, Cui Qianxue didn't say a word to Zhao Junchen again!

In a way, Zhao Junchen helped Cui Qianxue, and even helped the entire Cui family, so that the Cui family avoided the crime of bullying the king, and what Zhao Junchen said was all true.

But it is precisely because of these truths that although Cui Qianxue received Zhao Junchen's help, she couldn't have a good impression of Zhao Junchen.

Because, the truth always hurts.

Zhao Junchen didn't care about this, he was already used to it.

It's just that thinking that Cui Qianxue will meet her again at the palace banquet in the near future, at that time, Cui Qianxue's expression will definitely be very interesting, and the corners of Zhao Junchen's mouth couldn't help flashing a smile.

And just when Zhao Junchen smiled, Xu Qingyan finally bought the fire and returned to Zhao Junchen's side.

Seeing the smile on the corner of Zhao Junchen's mouth, Xu Qingyan couldn't help but wonder.

"Young master, what good things happened? How can you be so happy? ”

Zhao Junchen waved his hand and chuckled: "It's not necessarily a good thing, but it's an interesting thing...... Forget it, I can't tell you clearly for a while, it's not early, let's eat bean curd quickly, and then go to the palace for a banquet. ”

…………

Well, it's still a big chapter of 10,000 words.
