Chapter 26
Chapter 26 — Brother Poinsettia Forced Me to Replace Him as Official
So wrong. What does she usually call him? Or Bui Dien Chi. Or "Dai Ly Tu Khanh Sir". Sometimes when I'm in a good mood, I call my husband. But one day she called him in such a gentle tone. There's definitely something going on. He sat down opposite her.
"Madam, do you have something to say?"
"Do not have."
Bui Dien Chi looked at the cup of tea in front of him. Do not drink. Tham Tri Y smiled:
"Why don't you drink?"
He calmly replied:
"I'm afraid there's medicine in the tea."
The smile on her face immediately disappeared.
"Bui Dien Chi."
"In your eyes, am I that kind of person?"
He thought for a moment. Then he answered very honestly:
"No."
She was just about to be satisfied. He continued:
"My lady is smarter than that."
"Even if you want to correct me, you won't use a method that's easy to detect like quitting smoking."
The whole room was silent. One second later. A handkerchief flew straight to his face.
"You get out!"
Bui Dien Chi smiled and took the towel. This is his wife. That night. When two people have a meal. A maid accidentally said a sentence:
"I heard that today in the court, there was a young lady from the Tran family who brought breakfast for Lord Dai Ly."
Tham Tri Y's chopsticks stopped. Just a moment. Very quickly she continued to pick up food. Like completely ignored. But Bui Dien Chi knows. It's dangerous. Because she is calmer. Then something happens. During the meal. Tham Tri Y did not ask a question. Don't blame him one bit. Even gave him a piece of fish.
"Husband, eat a little more."
Bui Dien Chi looked at the fish. The feeling is even scarier than the time of investigation.
"Madam."
"I can explain."
"Explain what?"
"That lady named Tran."
She nodded.
"I heard she is very beautiful."
The tone is very calm. So calm that it made Bui Dien Chi want to immediately go to Dai Ly to self-examine a case that was even easier. He immediately said:
"I don't look."
"Madam."
"I really believe it."
He was silent. Because when Tham Tri Y said the three words "I really believe", her eyes were even more dangerous than when she stood in front of the civil and military mandarins in the main hall. A while later. He had to sigh.
"Madam."
"I was wrong."
She finally couldn't help but laugh.
"Where are you wrong?"
"Don't let others bring breakfast."
"Incorrect."
"So what is it?"
She propped her chin up and looked at him. Eyes curved up full of laughter.
"Where you are wrong, Bui Dien Chi, you are the smartest Dai Ly Khanh in Dai Ky."
"But it's only now that I realized I'm jealous."
He was stunned. Then burst out laughing. The woman once dared to stand in the middle of Kim Loan Palace, facing the entire civil and martial court, daring to bet her life on Trieu Binh, daring to make His Majesty recognize her. In the end, I will be jealous because of him. He reached out to hold her hand. The voice is rarely gentle.
"Madam."
"I'm very happy."
"What's fun?"
"Glad that you have me in your heart."
Tham Tri Y immediately blushed. She withdrew her hand.
"Less words are nauseating."
"Don't laugh."
"I said don't laugh!"
"But ma'am."
"I can't help it."
Just when Tham Tri Y was about to get angry, he immediately stood up and ran away. The movements were so fast that they were not like the usually calm Dai Ly Khanh. Tham Tri Y's voice echoed throughout the yard.
"Bui Dien Chi! Stop for me!"
The servants in the palace looked at that scene and everyone bowed their heads to hold back their laughter. If the court officials see it. Surely no one will believe it. The self-proclaimed Dai Ly scared the whole court. Come home. I fear my wife more than I fear your majesty. Later, someone asked Bui Dien Chi.
"Sir, is there anyone in this world that you can't deal with?"
He thought for a long time. Finally, he smiled and replied:
"That person's name is Tham Tri Y."
"And she is also the only person I am willing to lose to for the rest of my life."
EXTERNAL STORY 3 A LIFE OF GENIUS, A LIFE OF RISE UP EARLY I am Tham Tri Hanh. At the age of 17, he passed the Poinsettia exam, entered the Cabinet in three years, and became the youngest official in Dai Ky. That year, my essay made the examiner cry so much that his handkerchief was soaked. When the whole civil and military court mentioned it, I had to praise one sentence:
"Master Shen, a talented young man, a pillar of the nation."
I've heard it a lot. There is no feeling. After all, from a young age I knew I was smart. Look at the book once and remember it. Listen to the sentence once and you'll understand. No matter how confusing the books are, if you flip through a few pages in your hand, you can still see the gaps. The courtiers argued for three hours, I only needed one sentence to shut them up. So a long time ago, I used to feel that there was nothing scary about this life. Until we meet our greatest enemy. Not Trieu Binh. Not Tieu Duc. Not even crazy dog Bui Dien Chi. It's the hour of the Cat. Now Mao comes to court. Why is there such cruel things in this world? It's not dawn yet. The chicken hasn't finished crowing yet. Even the dogs in the yard are sleeping. Yet, as a mandarin, he had to get up from his blanket, wash his face, change his clothes, put on his saffron hat, and then stand in Kim Loan Palace and listen to a group of people arguing. Is this still humane? The first year I joined the Cabinet, I thought I could endure it. In the second year, I found that I couldn't bear it. In my third year, I saw my twin sister. Tham Tri Y. A face exactly like mine. A head that can't read many books, but knows how to think. I suddenly discovered it. God still loves us. So I gave her the official uniform.
