Chapter 471 Pheasant Xishi
Chapter 471 Pheasant Xishi
[Grand Marshal Teng Zhang.] The system quickly gave an answer.
Jiang Yueyang snorted inwardly, supported by the low table, stood up, and said with a hint of displeasure in her voice, "Your Excellency the Grand Marshal is wrong! The Crown Princess and His Royal Highness have been married for over a month, and they are now in the prime of their marriage.
If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were to take a concubine at this time, it would surely hurt the Crown Princess's feelings and would be detrimental to the harmony of the Eastern Palace.
Furthermore, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is busy with government affairs and should prioritize state affairs rather than rushing to expand his harem and produce offspring."
The general immediately backed down. He said this today because, firstly, he could not bear his granddaughter's pleading, and secondly, Jiang Yueyang had said before that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would definitely have many women in the future. He thought Jiang Yueyang had no objection to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince taking a concubine.
Seeing that the Grand Marshal remained silent, Jiang Yueyang continued, "Master Grand Marshal is so eager for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take a concubine. Could it be that he wants to send his own child to the Eastern Palace?"
As soon as these words were spoken, a low murmur of discussion suddenly arose in the court, and everyone was secretly wondering about the intention of the general's move.
The Taiwei noticed that the Emperor Yuan was looking at him with a strange look in his eyes, and he thought to himself that something was wrong. He immediately argued, "Your Majesty, this old minister..."
"If that's the case..." Jiang Yueyang interrupted him loudly, not giving him a chance to quibble, "Then the Grand Marshal is a bit selfish. The Crown Prince's marriage is a matter of state. How can it be decided arbitrarily based on the Grand Marshal's selfish desires?
Not to mention whether the Crown Princess can shoulder the responsibility of giving birth to an imperial heir, for the sake of harmony in the Eastern Palace and the stability of our dynasty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cannot take a concubine at this time.
Sir Taiwei, as an important official of the court, you should put the country and the people first, rather than just care about your own family interests.
If you insist on doing so, I'm afraid it will put His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in a dilemma. I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"
After being put on such a big hat, the Taiwei felt that his career was in danger, so he lifted up his robe and was about to kneel down.
But as soon as his knees bent slightly, he covered his head and shook it twice. The next second, with a bang, he fainted on the ground.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Yuan suddenly stood up, and Guo Yuanzheng also ran over subconsciously.
Jiang Yueyang curled her lips in disdain, [Isn't this vulgar? You're pretending to be dizzy again!]
Hearing the words "pretend to faint", Guo Yuanzheng unconsciously slowed down his pace.
System: [He's not pretending to be dizzy, he's really dizzy.]
Hearing this, Guo Yuanzheng suddenly quickened his pace.
Jiang Yueyang frowned. "Do my words have such a strong impact? He's already a Grand Commandant, he's experienced a lot, how come his mental endurance is so poor?"
[He didn't faint because of what the host said.]
At this time, Guo Yuanzheng was already squatting beside the Taiwei, taking his pulse and pinching his Ren Zhong acupoint.
Hearing the system's words, Jiang Yueyang felt a little relieved. "It's none of my business, otherwise I'd feel a little guilty."
Emperor Yuan asked, "Guo Yuanzheng, how is the Grand Commandant?"
"Your Majesty, the Grand Marshal has fainted, and I cannot find the cause at the moment. Please allow me to take the Grand Marshal down for a thorough examination."
Emperor Yuan waved his hand, and several eunuchs went up and carried the unconscious general away.
Jiang Yueyang watched Guo Yuanzheng and the others leave and asked curiously, "Xiaogua, why did the Grand Marshal suddenly faint?"
Because he was dizzy.
[Airsick?] Jiang Yueyang was confused. [There aren't any planes here, so how could he get airsick?]
Emperor Yuan & Civil and Military Officials: An airplane? What is that?
System: [This chicken is not that machine. ]
[What kind of machine is that?] Jiang Yueyang asked impatiently.
【The clucking chicken.】
Jiang Yueyang: "..."
Emperor Yuan: “…”
Civil and military officials: "..."
The clucking...chicken?
Dizzy!
Everyone present was shocked. What kind of novel way of fainting was that? It was ridiculous, wasn't it?
Jiang Yueyang also thought it was ridiculous. "I've seen people get carsick, seasick, blood sickness, and airplane sickness, but I've never seen anyone get chicken sick!"
Just as she finished speaking, she thought of something else, "No, even if he fainted, there's no chicken in this hall to make him faint, right?"
Hearing this, everyone was also confused.
System: [Host, take a look at the place where the general fainted.]
Jiang Yueyang looked in the direction the system instructed, and all the civil and military officials also looked over quietly.
Is that... chicken feathers?
When the system saw that she had seen it, it said: "The commander's chicken dizziness is quite serious. He will feel dizzy just by looking at the picture of a chicken, let alone seeing chicken feathers on his body.
This morning, when he was buying steamed buns on the roadside, a little chicken crawled under his feet, and that's when the chicken feathers got stuck to him.
Jiang Yueyang's mouth twitched. "There really are all sorts of strange things in this world. But, is the Taiwei's chicken-sickness habit congenital or acquired?"
【It is acquired.】
Jiang Yueyang immediately became interested when he heard this. [Tell me what's going on?]
Taiwei was born in a remote mountain village, where life was difficult. When he was young, he would go to the mountains to find food when he was hungry.
Once, he found a nest of pheasant eggs in a bush. Because he was so hungry, he made a fire on the spot and stewed the pheasant eggs.
When he finished eating a nest of pheasant eggs and was about to go back, the mother pheasant came back.
When the mother pheasant saw the eggshells on the ground and the yolk that had not been wiped clean from the corners of the little captain's mouth, all the feathers on her body stood up.
The young general didn't know that danger was about to come, and he pounced on the mother pheasant, hoping to have a good meal.
The mother pheasant flapped its wings to avoid being caught by the little captain and made sharp cries.
Before long, all the pheasants on the mountain gathered from all directions and swarmed over to peck at the young commander.
The young lieutenant was attacked by a group of pheasants. Not only was he riddled with wounds, but his penis was nearly bitten off.
All the civil and military officials felt pain at the thought, and at the same time they were glad for the general that his vitals were not damaged.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the chance to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take a concubine today.
What's worse, he might not even have the chance to pass the imperial examination and become an official.
Jiang Yueyang's focus was different from that of the civil and military officials. She was more curious about why the pheasant mother could command all the pheasants in the mountain.
"Little Gua, how can that mother pheasant command so many pheasants? Is she the king of pheasants?"
All the civil and military officials agreed secretly. It must be so, otherwise the pheasants would not listen to it.
This beast also believes that the strong are respected!
King Yan was thinking, if such a powerful pheasant listened to him, wouldn’t he have a group of chicken minions?
It’s so impressive just thinking about it!
The Duke of England had the same idea as him and planned to ask the general for the address of the small mountain village later.
If there is a king of chickens, then there must be a king of chickens leading the pheasants now!
If he can get the Chicken King, he won't have to worry about having no meat to eat in the future, hahahaha...
System: [Mother Pheasant is not the King of Pheasants, but she is the Xi Shi of the Pheasant world. All pheasants are fascinated by her.]
