Chapter 8
Chapter 8 is raised in the depths of the boudoir and no one knows
Red Leaf Temple is also famous in Beijing, in autumn, the red leaves flying all over the mountains, with the beauty to describe are a little succumbing to these beautiful scenery, but also really worthy of the name of the Red Leaf Temple, plus the vegetarian food here is also famous for the delicious, so in the autumn many dignitaries will come here, enjoy the beautiful scenery, eat delicious, it is also a great pleasure.
It's just that it's early summer, and this red leaf temple is surrounded by a piece of jasper, but there is no beautiful scenery, at least there is food to accompany it, but it is not in vain to come to this red leaf temple.
It's just that some people come to this red leaf temple for the beautiful scenery or the food.
A carriage is parked at this Momiji Temple, and there is no sign on the car, but there are often nobles around Momiji Temple to hide their whereabouts, and this carriage without any signs is not very conspicuous.
It's just that the carriage is a little old, and it can be seen that the owner of the carriage is not a rich and noble person. The carriage is parked outside the range of Momijiji Temple, but you can clearly see the people entering and exiting Momijiji Temple, so it is a good place to observe Momijiji Temple. There were two small servants standing outside the carriage, one of whom had a beautiful facial contour and was delicate, plus he was full of femininity, and at a glance he could know that he was played by a woman.
"Do you see that son?" asked from the carriage, although the voice was disguisedly lowered, but it was still a woman's voice, and even so, the woman's voice could be heard delicate, like the first cry of a warbler.
"Miss, I didn't see the childe appear that day!" said the delicate little girl, revealing a deep sense of loss between his words.
"It's okay......" The woman's tone in the carriage was also very lost, "Wait a while, the eldest brother will come over, let's go first!"
The two people dressed up in small clothes answered, and the carriage clattered, and soon left the Red Leaf Temple and walked towards Sanli Lane.
The woman in this carriage is the original heroine Song, and the delicate little girl is her personal maid Xing'er.
And she came to the Red Leaf Temple this time to find a handsome gentleman she met in the Red Leaf Temple before. The peach blossoms bloomed in March, and the Song family met that one in the peach blossom forest on the mountain behind the Red Leaf Temple, and the person in the peach blossom forest smiled.
She is not easy to do obviously, if she comes to the Red Leaf Temple every day to make incense, I am afraid that her family will be worried about her, will shave her head and become a sister-in-law, so she will pick the fifteenth day of the first month of the month, go to the Red Leaf Temple, and look forward to meeting the Ruyi Langjun who made him fall in love at first sight.
Her personal maid Xing'er was a little dissatisfied with this matter, and felt that her own young lady's behavior was a little out of line, chasing a man like this, if it was passed out, I am afraid that Miss would not marry, but she was soft-spoken, plus she was coerced and lured by her own young lady, and Song's head and tail were handled very cleanly, so far no one else found out, but it made Xing'er relax, and she no longer worried about what punishment she would receive after the matter was exposed.
At this time, the master and servant in the car did not know that they should have met another handsome and noble Lang Jun, and he would also be interested in their sharp-tongued young lady, so he directly accepted their young lady as a concubine. According to their family background, the Song family can only be a concubine for him......
Now the Song family just lamented, why didn't the previous Lang Jun appear, that is, she stayed for two months, and she couldn't see the slightest trace of him, except for lamenting that there was no fate, the Song family didn't know what to say.
Thinking of the recent family that his parents have set up by themselves, the Song family naturally heard his mother mention it. Father Song is just a five-grade petty official in this capital, and the ancestors of the Song family have never raised people for three generations, and they have nothing to do with the scholarly family, that is, Father Song, so the Song family has an official body.
There is no help and no background, and the Song family is a concubine, so the people who can choose have limited properties, and the capital is a place rich in officials and nobles and waste.
There weren't many options left for the Song family, and most of them were the latter.
The Song family is naturally unwilling, although this is an overhead dynasty, and he does not have the advantage of being familiar with history, but he is also from a person hundreds of years later, and he is inherently taller and farther than these ancients.
Although his family background may not be worthy of any princes and grandchildren, but the average prince and grandson nobles can still afford it, where is it like the parents picked for themselves, basically except for crooked melons and cracked dates, it is mediocre and incompetent.
Song thought of the person his mother had chosen for him, and he was depressed for a while. It would be nice if I could meet the person I met last time in the Red Leaf Temple, the Song family remembered the unicorn jade pendant on him, the Great Zhou Dynasty had strict regulations on clothing, and the decorations of Rui beasts such as the unicorn dragon and phoenix were not something that anyone could wear.
Father Song is a five-rank official, but he is not qualified to wear the decoration of the Rui Beast, and even the Rui Beast like an immortal crane is not embroidered on his official robe, let alone other higher-level things.
Thinking of the man's handsome appearance, a pair of eyes that were as attractive as the starry sky, attracting people to explore the story in his eyes, Song suddenly felt drunk.
It's just that now that I can't find anyone, the Song family has no choice, and I secretly comforted myself in my heart that I can cross over, although I can't lead to a national war like a Mary Sue heroine, at least I can have a wishful husband.
The carriage clanged, and soon returned to the Song Mansion.
Song was helped into the Song Mansion by Xing'er, but he met Song's brother, Song Siqi.
Song smiled tactfully, and called his brother coquettishly, but Song Siqi didn't respond, he glanced at Song coldly.
Seeing the look of sneering on Song's face, he said, "Come with me!"
The imperial examination is divided into the township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination. If you can pass the guรฒ township test, you can call it a lifter, and if you can pass the guรฒ will test, you can call it a jinshi, and the township test is generally held in August, which is also called Qiuyu.
Fifty young Jinshi, thirty old Mingjing, this year's Song Siqi is only twenty years old, in this group of people in the imperial examination, he is also considered to be young and promising, the family has great expectations for him, if ordinary people are at this age, I am afraid they would have already said that they would have said goodbye, but Song Siqi did not, his parents are waiting for him to take the exam, and even Jinshi, with such a capital, Song Siqi can choose a little more.
Therefore, on weekdays, Song Siqi is always in the most secluded place at home, studying poetry and books, and preparing for the future township test. It's just that Song Siqi didn't go to his friend's banquet today? Why did he rush back at this time?
The Song family was puzzled, but looking at Song Siqi in front of him, it was not easy to say anything, he was a serious son-in-law, and the Song family had no right to refute his words. Song Siqi asked Song to follow, and Song followed, and even Xing'er on the side was pulled over by Song Siqi's little girl.
Song and Xing'er glanced at each other, always feeling that something bad was going to happen.
Song Siqi didn't say anything, just took them to his mother's residence. His mother, Zhao, has always been a generous and generous mother in the eyes of outsiders, but now Zhao's expression has nothing to do with generosity and generosity......
You must know that she still has two daughters, and if the Song family ruins the reputation of the Song family, she will have to marry her daughters! What if her two daughters are sent to the temple to be sisters-in-law?
Song Siqi left after sending the person, although he found out about this matter, but it should not be handled by him.
So the Song family, who was originally going to be accepted by Lin Sun, suffered a lot under his mother-in-law.
Song Siqi looked in the direction of the palace, and the shouts of the Song family kept coming from behind him. But Song Siqi didn't seem to hear it, and hurriedly walked towards the place where he usually did his studies.
At this time, Song Siqi didn't care about the life or death of his sister-in-law, but Lin Su was worried about his sister-in-law.
Now that his father is insisting on the Northern Expedition, he can plan this matter well, in fact, if he uses it well, he can still give those barbarians a good look, but he doesn't have to stick to these.
Besides, next year, my father will go on a northern expedition, and this time is enough for Lin Su to make some preparations, but there is another thing that Lin Su is very worried about.
For example, the marriage of his own sister-in-law.
Concubine Shugui has only one son, so the sister Lin Su refers to is the only daughter of Empress Zhang, Princess Qingning.
I think of the delicate and soft dumpling at the beginning, with a small hat made of white fox fur, and a small cotton ball hanging on the top of the hat, which looks particularly cute and tight, and in a blink of an eye, it is also a cardamom year, and it is a person who needs to see Lang Jun.
Thinking about it, Lin Su's mind didn't know how, so he turned to Gu Lang, speaking of which, Gu Lang should be a few years older than himself, but he didn't seem to be married in his previous life?
It seems that in this life, he has obviously passed the age of the weak crown, but he hasn't heard much about his family affairs now.
Lin Su turned his thoughts back, Gu Lang only had to be loyal to himself, as for other things, they were trivial.
As soon as Lin Su entered the palace, he heard that his mother planned to marry Qingning to Sun Yanling, this guy is not a good thing, in the last life, if he hadn't protected Qingning, I'm afraid Qingning would have gone early, even if he protected it, Qingning also walked in front of him, which made Lin Su feel distressed.
He would never let Qingning fall into the hands of this scumbag and let her die depressed.
"Brother Huang, are you here too?" Qing Ning threw herself into Lin Su's arms like a returning milk swallow, and then looked at Lin Su with a pair of big watery eyes, looking coquettish and stupid.
Lin Su twisted Qing Ning's nose slightly, and before Qing Ning could protest, Empress Zhang spoke, "What is Qing Ning messing around!
Qing Ning made a grimace at Lin Su, and then saluted in a proper manner, "My sister has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness is blessed with Jin'an!"
Lin Su helped Qingning up, patted the dust on her body, and said to Queen Zhang: "Qingning loves to make trouble, and the queen mother doesn't need to be too harsh." โ
Qing Ning stuck out her tongue and didn't say anything, a loving smile appeared on Queen Zhang's face, and after seeing Lin Su respectfully saluting herself, the smile deepened.
Lin Su took his attention away from Empress Zhang's mother and daughter, and when he saw that the eldest prince was also standing there, he arched his hand, Lin Su was the prince of a country, and the eldest prince gave Lin Su a salute with an unkind face.
Lin Su smiled, didn't pay attention to the face of the eldest prince at all, and said directly to Empress Zhang: "Erchen heard that the queen mother wants to marry Qingning Xu to Sun Yanling?"
This Sun Yanling is the son of the Marquis of Xingbo, last year, he was promoted to martial arts, and he sought the position of a lieutenant in the Imperial Forest Army, although it is not an important position, but it is also good among the sons of the gentlemen.
Empress Zhang inquired about Sun Yanling's family background and his appearance, but only one thing was missing, Sun Yanling is good at Nanfeng, and he has always been favored.
By the time Qing Ning found out, she had already worshiped heaven and earth with that person and became husband and wife, even if his royal brother was the lord of the world, he couldn't control the affairs of the princess's concubine.
Lin Su looked at the upright Princess Qingning who was sitting on the side, her cheeks were slightly red, and she also had some shyness unique to a girl, and when she heard her question, her originally straight waist also bent down, and she called out to the emperor brother coquettishly.
Empress Zhang smiled, "I don't know which one has a broken mouth, and the rumors have spread to the prince?" Seeing Lin Su looking at her curiously, she pursed her lips and smiled: "I heard that Shouchanghou mentioned it, so I sent someone to inquire, he is a good boy." โ
After everyone said goodbye, Lin Su cared about the queen's body, which made the queen feel a lot more in her heart. Although Lin Su is not her own child, the royal family has never paid attention to these, and interests are the most important.
The eldest prince watched Lin Su's gaze fall on Qing Ning's body, and secretly laughed in his heart, others don't know, that Sun Yanling, isn't the eldest prince still unclear? That's a good south wind master, and there seems to be a good friend on the tip of his heart, if Qing Ning marries, it is estimated that there will be no good life.
The eldest prince smiled, anyway, the unlucky ones were the prince's people, so he wouldn't remind Qing Ning and Lin Su to come.
The eldest prince suppressed his thoughts, and followed Princess Qingning to start talking and laughing with Empress Zhang.
Lin Su's brows twitched slightly, it seemed that the queen had a good impression of Sun Yanling. The officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty were not allowed to recruit prostitutes, so this south wind was popular in the capital for a long time, and they were not prostitutes, they could enter and leave the south wind hall in a bright way.
Therefore, people regard this as a fashion, similar to the people of later generations who went to Thailand to see ladyboys.
Empress Zhang thought the same thing, thinking that Sun Yanling was just young and romantic, but which man was not like this? When he became a family, he would naturally be able to retract his thoughts, but he didn't care much.
In the past, Lin Su and Empress Zhang had the same opinion, but Lin Su, who had experienced a lifetime, would not be confused by what was in front of him.
Thinking of Sun Yanling's affectionate affection for the so-called sweetheart, he was preparing Princess Shang.
also harmed Qing Ning like that, Lin Su felt unbearable.
"Queen Mother, I haven't heard much of this Sun Yanling's son, why don't you let your son's retainer take a good look?" Lin Su looked at Qingning and said, "Qingning is the pearl in your palm, how can you give it to outsiders lightly!"
"Brother Prince!" Qing Ning cried out angrily, "I won't tell you!" After that, he ran directly to the inner room.
"How can this kid be so rude?" the queen was a little annoyed.
Lin Su smiled and said that it was okay.
"That Sun Yanling......" The queen knew Sun Yanling from the mouth of the Marquis of Shouchang, and she had always known that her brother was unreliable, but what her mother's family always had to protect was that he was a scoundrel and had no choice
Lin Su smiled, "Qingning, it's Lone's sister." โ
The queen smiled, and there was a little joy in her heart, knowing that Lin Su was planning to arrange a marriage for Qingning, she was a little more down-to-earth in her heart.
The power of the Zhang family, since the death of her sister Concubine Shugui, has been declining, that is, she is the queen, but she does not have much power in her hands.
It's just that the queen knows that as long as the prince is there, there will be no problem with the Zhang family, the only trouble is that the prince and the Zhang family are not close, but thinking that the Zhang family is all mediocre now, the queen can also understand why the prince is not close to the Zhang family.
For the sake of today's plan, he had to think of another way to get close to the prince, and the queen glanced at it again, and Lin Su, who was sitting next to him, had a smile on his face that deepened a little.
On the other side, Gu Lang, who was planning to pack his bags and go back to the border gate, received a letter, Gu Lang looked at the content written on the letter happily, and sniffed the letter paper gently, in addition to the ink fragrance, there was another fragrance, like the smell of Nanmu, Gu Lang carefully took out a Nanmu box, and then put the letter in, in addition to the letter paper, there seemed to be small things such as wine cups and tea cups.
It was obviously a very ordinary thing, but Gu Lang packed them in a high-quality nanmu box, and then carefully placed it next to his pillow.
Beijing, Yuelai Inn.
Zhao Jin is a little restrained, he is a student who entered Beijing to take the exam. The township test is imminent, and the lifters near the capital gather in Yingtianfu, which will be the place where they can show their strength. The south has prospered since ancient times, Huiji, Yuyao and other famous champion counties, the Great Zhou Dynasty, in the annual imperial examination, the southerners always occupy the majority of the places.
In contrast, the competitiveness of the north is much worse than that of the south, so many people who have a way to move their household registration from the south to the north, although they can not let themselves get the first place in the Jinshi department, but the township test is a little more certain, a bit similar to the college entrance examination in later generations......
Zhao Jin was one of these people, and he was sitting by the window talking to a few fellow villagers at this time.
It was the first time he had come to such a bustling place, and the streets were full of traffic and people. Wang Donglai, a fellow villager, is obviously more open than him, he has a solid family since he was a child, and his father is a squire. I have seen more of the world. Even so, Wang Donglai's gaze kept turning around, obviously his heart was not so calm.
"I heard that when you come to the capital, you must go to a place. Wang Donglai said with a smile, with an expression on his face that anyone who understands it.
"Must?" Zhao Jin looked at the few fellow villagers in front of him a little confused.
Wang Dongsheng laughed and said, "Brother Zhao probably hasn't seen it, right?"
"We're going to see tonight. โ
"It's a good place in the capital. If Brother Zhao didn't go to see and see, he would have come in vain. โ
Ruyi Ju.
Zhu Siniang looked at the guests coming and going downstairs, holding a cup of agarwood for twenty taels of silver in her hand. She is the proprietress of Ruyiju, and because of Xingsi, she is called Zhu Siniang.
This Zhu Siniang has three elder brothers, but unfortunately none of them are successful. I haven't seen them do it, eating, drinking, and having fun, stealing chickens and touching dogs, but they are proficient in one game.
Zhu Siniang's father saw that his son was not successful, so he gave this wishful house to Zhu Siniang, but asked Zhu Siniang to take care of his three brothers. At that time, some people said that her father was confused, and this belongings were indeed ruined in the hands of his son, but in the hands of his daughter, it was not necessarily ruined.
What is surprising is that Zhu Siniang, a weak woman, slowly survived.
You must know that it is not easy for Zhu Siniang to operate Ruyiju into what it is today in this huge capital city as a woman.
Today's Ruyiju is already the largest green building in the capital.
Many people secretly guessed that there must be someone else behind this wishful house. You must know that this is the capital, and a piece of red bean cake falling from the sky can hit a powerful place.
I just don't know who the person behind this wishful dwelling is?
Zhu Siniang didn't care what other people thought, she still opened her own Ruyi House to welcome visitors from all over the world, and occasionally people who made trouble disappeared into the noise silently.
A delicately dressed little maid hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in Zhu Siniang's ear. Zhu Siniang's eyes lit up, and she ordered the little maid a few words. Then the little maid hurriedly went down, Zhu Siniang smiled and drank all the wine in the cup.
It's time for the show.
Zhao Jin stared straight at the wine glass in front of him, afraid of seeing something that he shouldn't see, and his white jade-like face was also red as if it was dripping blood.
There was a bewitching + charming woman sitting next to him. The woman was smiling and urging wine.
"Zhao Gongzi, you can have a drink!"
Zhao Jin leaned back, blushing and pushing away the glass of wine that was handed to his lips. The girl's face was pale, and she didn't look good.
If he had known that he had come to this place, he would not have come here no matter how curious he was.
Wang Dongsheng looked at him like that and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, now you have to have fun in time, it's your fault for snubbing the beauty." โ
With that, he drank the wine that the other woman had brought to his lips.
The woman smiled and said, "Childe is probably the first time to come!"
A few fellow villagers next to him laughed: "Naturally, it's the first time to come!" "Brother Zhao usually uses sage books as a companion, how can he go to the wind and snow." โ
Zhao Jin was embarrassed, and his face turned even redder. Don't say anything about the incivility in your heart, and don't move it.
"Bang! Bang!"
A man dressed as a domestic servant suddenly rolled down the stairs, and it looked as if he had been thrown from the stairs. Then another richly dressed man was thrown down, and the man was handsome and tall. Judging by his clothes, he should also be a powerful person, but he didn't know who he provoked, so he was thrown away.
The first floor of Ruyi House is generally only for some wealthy businessmen, while the second floor is for some more wealthy people. It's just that these people generally don't take arguments lightly, so it's rare to be thrown away like this.
Wang Dongsheng looked around, put a piece of silver in the hand of the girl sitting next to him, and said, "This is the wine money." "Let's take a few fellow villagers out.
The girl looked at the faces of the group of people coming downstairs and turned white, so she could still take care of Zhao Jin and them.
Wang Dongsheng took Zhao Jin and a few fellow villagers out, and several guests around him also went out. This is the capital, and if you can't afford to provoke it, you can at least hide.
Zhao Jin followed Wang Dongsheng out in a daze, and a few fellow villagers muttered: "Bad luck." โ
He was actually very happy not to have to face those women.
Wang Dongsheng's face sank: "Let's not mention this matter again." Although a few fellow villagers were dissatisfied, they still did not speak. Looking at the dissatisfied eyes of his fellow villagers, Wang Dongsheng explained: "The people on the second floor are either rich or expensive, and I am afraid that disaster will come from the mouth. โ
Ruyi Curie is a different story.
The two groups were facing each other in the hall.
Sun Yanling watched the little man who was tactfully under him on weekdays being hugged in the arms of the richly dressed young man, and he was on fire.
Seeing the people around him scattered, it seemed that what he was doing here would also be spread, and he was even more angry in his heart.
If you don't teach this teenager a lesson, then how will it end up in your own face.
Seeing Sun Yanling's ruthless look, the young man smiled indifferently. Reaching out and touching the person in his arms, the face of the person in his arms changed. He looked at the person who held him in his arms, the people in the capital, he had seen a lot. It's just that he really hasn't seen this person.
Speaking of which, he was also unlucky, today Siniang said that he wanted him to receive a distinguished guest, who knew that Master Sun was here, and asked him to come over on the spot. Lord Sun is his frequent visitor, if it was in the past, he would have gone, but this eye-born master did not want to.
So this kind of drama of two men fighting for one man was staged on him.
The imperial court stipulated that officials were not allowed to recruit prostitutes, but if they were petty men, they would not interfere much. Like the larger Qinglou, there are basically small ones, and Ruyiju naturally has them, and satisfaction is one of the top cards. It's just that he can't afford to offend these two today, so he just hopes that Siniang will come over quickly and be able to dissuade them quickly.
"Where did the southern barbarians come from, but they played a majestic hand. The boy scoffed.
"Who are you?" Sun Yanling said as he looked at him.
The young man smiled and ignored Sun Yanling, and ordered his subordinates: "Fight to the death." โ
Sun Yanling came secretly, after all, he still has the princess's marriage contract on him, although it has not been announced to the world, it is only circulated among a small number of people.
is going to marry a princess, naturally you can't linger in this fireworks land for a long time, at least you have to be clean and self-conscious, so Sun Yanling didn't make a big show, only brought two loyal little guys, and he couldn't compare to the young gangsters, and he was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face after a while.
Seeing that Sun Daren, who was usually high-minded, was treated like this, he was also shocked. He moved more carefully, for fear of upsetting the young man.
Zhu Siniang looked at the chaos downstairs and instructed the little maid beside her: "Go to retribution to Tianfu." โ
It took Zhao Jin a few days to learn that it was Yanling, the son of the Marquis of Xingbo of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who was making trouble in the Qinglou that day. It's just a matter of wind and moon, but it's full of wind and rain. When Zhao Jin and his fellow villagers were discussing, Wang Dongsheng didn't say anything.
Zhao Jin looked at Wang Dongsheng a little strangely, doesn't Brother Wang usually like to talk about these things the most? Why didn't he say a word today? Isn't there something inappropriate?
Wang Dongsheng lowered his voice and said, "Be cautious, I'm afraid this matter can't be explained by a romantic matter." โ
A few fellow villagers looked at the people who were discussing around them and stopped talking.
Zhao Jin looked around, and almost the entire capital knew about it. It seems that it's better not to mess with it, the imperial examination is approaching, and it's better to read a few more books.
Inside the Palace......
Qing Ning's former vitality was gone, and her eyes were full of anger and accusation
The queen held her hand and couldn't help but cry: "Child, you have been wronged. โ
It's not that he was wronged, Sun Yanling went directly to Shuntian Mansion for the sake of a little guy and someone making trouble in the Qinglou. This matter has spread throughout the capital, although there are not many people who know that the queen intends to marry Princess Qingning to Sun Yanling, but those who know have sighed that Princess Qingning is unladylike, and the matchmaker Shouchanghou should be dragged to Yingtianfu to have a good fight, and the docile Qingning in the past is also resentful.
I thought that the family business that my mother chose for her was good, but she had also secretly seen Sun Yanling, and she was handsome. It's just that I didn't expect him to be so inconsistent, she and him are already talking about marriage, and this kind of thing happens at this time, isn't this a naked slap in the face of โกโก!
How does this make her deal with herself!
The mother and daughter of Cining Palace were complaining, but Lin Su was worrying about another matter.
Gu Lang did a good job, Sun Yanling had this incident, he definitely couldn't be a colt anymore, so what about Qingning's pony candidates?
Lin Su's brows furrowed even tighter......
Chapter 8 is raised in the depths of the boudoir and no one knows
Red Leaf Temple is also famous in Beijing, in autumn, the red leaves flying all over the mountains, with the beauty to describe are a little succumbing to these beautiful scenery, but also really worthy of the name of the Red Leaf Temple, plus the vegetarian food here is also famous for the delicious, so in the autumn many dignitaries will come here, enjoy the beautiful scenery, eat delicious, it is also a great pleasure.
It's just that it's early summer, and this red leaf temple is surrounded by a piece of jasper, but there is no beautiful scenery, at least there is food to accompany it, but it is not in vain to come to this red leaf temple.
It's just that some people come to this red leaf temple for the beautiful scenery or the food.
A carriage is parked at this Momiji Temple, and there is no sign on the car, but there are often nobles around Momiji Temple to hide their whereabouts, and this carriage without any signs is not very conspicuous.
It's just that the carriage is a little old, and it can be seen that the owner of the carriage is not a rich and noble person. The carriage is parked outside the range of Momijiji Temple, but you can clearly see the people entering and exiting Momijiji Temple, so it is a good place to observe Momijiji Temple. There were two small servants standing outside the carriage, one of whom had a beautiful facial contour and was delicate, plus he was full of femininity, and at a glance he could know that he was played by a woman.
"Do you see that son?" asked from the carriage, although the voice was disguisedly lowered, but it was still a woman's voice, and even so, the woman's voice could be heard delicate, like the first cry of a warbler.
"Miss, I didn't see the childe appear that day!" said the delicate little girl, revealing a deep sense of loss between his words.
"It's okay......" The woman's tone in the carriage was also very lost, "Wait a while, the eldest brother will come over, let's go first!"
The two people dressed up in small clothes answered, and the carriage clattered, and soon left the Red Leaf Temple and walked towards Sanli Lane.
The woman in this carriage is the original heroine Song, and the delicate little girl is her personal maid Xing'er.
And she came to the Red Leaf Temple this time to find a handsome gentleman she met in the Red Leaf Temple before. The peach blossoms bloomed in March, and the Song family met that one in the peach blossom forest on the mountain behind the Red Leaf Temple, and the person in the peach blossom forest smiled.
She is not easy to do obviously, if she comes to the Red Leaf Temple every day to make incense, I am afraid that her family will be worried about her, will shave her head and become a sister-in-law, so she will pick the fifteenth day of the first month of the month, go to the Red Leaf Temple, and look forward to meeting the Ruyi Langjun who made him fall in love at first sight.
Her personal maid Xing'er was a little dissatisfied with this matter, and felt that her own young lady's behavior was a little out of line, chasing a man like this, if it was passed out, I am afraid that Miss would not marry, but she was soft-spoken, plus she was coerced and lured by her own young lady, and Song's head and tail were handled very cleanly, so far no one else found out, but it made Xing'er relax, and she no longer worried about what punishment she would receive after the matter was exposed.
At this time, the master and servant in the car did not know that they should have met another handsome and noble Lang Jun, and he would also be interested in their sharp-tongued young lady, so he directly accepted their young lady as a concubine. According to their family background, the Song family can only be a concubine for him......
Now the Song family just lamented, why didn't the previous Lang Jun appear, that is, she stayed for two months, and she couldn't see the slightest trace of him, except for lamenting that there was no fate, the Song family didn't know what to say.
Thinking of the recent family that his parents have set up by themselves, the Song family naturally heard his mother mention it. Father Song is just a five-grade petty official in this capital, and the ancestors of the Song family have never raised people for three generations, and they have nothing to do with the scholarly family, that is, Father Song, so the Song family has an official body.
There is no help and no background, and the Song family is a concubine, so the people who can choose have limited properties, and the capital is a place rich in officials and nobles and waste.
There weren't many options left for the Song family, and most of them were the latter.
The Song family is naturally unwilling, although this is an overhead dynasty, and he does not have the advantage of being familiar with history, but he is also from a person hundreds of years later, and he is inherently taller and farther than these ancients.
Although his family background may not be worthy of any princes and grandchildren, but the average prince and grandson nobles can still afford it, where is it like the parents picked for themselves, basically except for crooked melons and cracked dates, it is mediocre and incompetent.
Song thought of the person his mother had chosen for him, and he was depressed for a while. It would be nice if I could meet the person I met last time in the Red Leaf Temple, the Song family remembered the unicorn jade pendant on him, the Great Zhou Dynasty had strict regulations on clothing, and the decorations of Rui beasts such as the unicorn dragon and phoenix were not something that anyone could wear.
Father Song is a five-rank official, but he is not qualified to wear the decoration of the Rui Beast, and even the Rui Beast like an immortal crane is not embroidered on his official robe, let alone other higher-level things.
Thinking of the man's handsome appearance, a pair of eyes that were as attractive as the starry sky, attracting people to explore the story in his eyes, Song suddenly felt drunk.
It's just that now that I can't find anyone, the Song family has no choice, and I secretly comforted myself in my heart that I can cross over, although I can't lead to a national war like a Mary Sue heroine, at least I can have a wishful husband.
The carriage clanged, and soon returned to the Song Mansion.
Song was helped into the Song Mansion by Xing'er, but he met Song's brother, Song Siqi.
Song smiled tactfully, and called his brother coquettishly, but Song Siqi didn't respond, he glanced at Song coldly.
Seeing the look of sneering on Song's face, he said, "Come with me!"
The imperial examination is divided into the township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination. If you can pass the guรฒ township test, you can call it a lifter, and if you can pass the guรฒ will test, you can call it a jinshi, and the township test is generally held in August, which is also called Qiuyu.
Fifty young Jinshi, thirty old Mingjing, this year's Song Siqi is only twenty years old, in this group of people in the imperial examination, he is also considered to be young and promising, the family has great expectations for him, if ordinary people are at this age, I am afraid they would have already said that they would have said goodbye, but Song Siqi did not, his parents are waiting for him to take the exam, and even Jinshi, with such a capital, Song Siqi can choose a little more.
Therefore, on weekdays, Song Siqi is always in the most secluded place at home, studying poetry and books, and preparing for the future township test. It's just that Song Siqi didn't go to his friend's banquet today? Why did he rush back at this time?
The Song family was puzzled, but looking at Song Siqi in front of him, it was not easy to say anything, he was a serious son-in-law, and the Song family had no right to refute his words. Song Siqi asked Song to follow, and Song followed, and even Xing'er on the side was pulled over by Song Siqi's little girl.
Song and Xing'er glanced at each other, always feeling that something bad was going to happen.
Song Siqi didn't say anything, just took them to his mother's residence. His mother, Zhao, has always been a generous and generous mother in the eyes of outsiders, but now Zhao's expression has nothing to do with generosity and generosity......
You must know that she still has two daughters, and if the Song family ruins the reputation of the Song family, she will have to marry her daughters! What if her two daughters are sent to the temple to be sisters-in-law?
Song Siqi left after sending the person, although he found out about this matter, but it should not be handled by him.
So the Song family, who was originally going to be accepted by Lin Sun, suffered a lot under his mother-in-law.
Song Siqi looked in the direction of the palace, and the shouts of the Song family kept coming from behind him. But Song Siqi didn't seem to hear it, and hurriedly walked towards the place where he usually did his studies.
At this time, Song Siqi didn't care about the life or death of his sister-in-law, but Lin Su was worried about his sister-in-law.
Now that his father is insisting on the Northern Expedition, he can plan this matter well, in fact, if he uses it well, he can still give those barbarians a good look, but he doesn't have to stick to these.
Besides, next year, my father will go on a northern expedition, and this time is enough for Lin Su to make some preparations, but there is another thing that Lin Su is very worried about.
For example, the marriage of his own sister-in-law.
Concubine Shugui has only one son, so the sister Lin Su refers to is the only daughter of Empress Zhang, Princess Qingning.
I think of the delicate and soft dumpling at the beginning, with a small hat made of white fox fur, and a small cotton ball hanging on the top of the hat, which looks particularly cute and tight, and in a blink of an eye, it is also a cardamom year, and it is a person who needs to see Lang Jun.
Thinking about it, Lin Su's mind didn't know how, so he turned to Gu Lang, speaking of which, Gu Lang should be a few years older than himself, but he didn't seem to be married in his previous life?
It seems that in this life, he has obviously passed the age of the weak crown, but he hasn't heard much about his family affairs now.
Lin Su turned his thoughts back, Gu Lang only had to be loyal to himself, as for other things, they were trivial.
As soon as Lin Su entered the palace, he heard that his mother planned to marry Qingning to Sun Yanling, this guy is not a good thing, in the last life, if he hadn't protected Qingning, I'm afraid Qingning would have gone early, even if he protected it, Qingning also walked in front of him, which made Lin Su feel distressed.
He would never let Qingning fall into the hands of this scumbag and let her die depressed.
"Brother Huang, are you here too?" Qing Ning threw herself into Lin Su's arms like a returning milk swallow, and then looked at Lin Su with a pair of big watery eyes, looking coquettish and stupid.
Lin Su twisted Qing Ning's nose slightly, and before Qing Ning could protest, Empress Zhang spoke, "What is Qing Ning messing around!
Qing Ning made a grimace at Lin Su, and then saluted in a proper manner, "My sister has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness is blessed with Jin'an!"
Lin Su helped Qingning up, patted the dust on her body, and said to Queen Zhang: "Qingning loves to make trouble, and the queen mother doesn't need to be too harsh." โ
Qing Ning stuck out her tongue and didn't say anything, a loving smile appeared on Queen Zhang's face, and after seeing Lin Su respectfully saluting herself, the smile deepened.
Lin Su took his attention away from Empress Zhang's mother and daughter, and when he saw that the eldest prince was also standing there, he arched his hand, Lin Su was the prince of a country, and the eldest prince gave Lin Su a salute with an unkind face.
Lin Su smiled, didn't pay attention to the face of the eldest prince at all, and said directly to Empress Zhang: "Erchen heard that the queen mother wants to marry Qingning Xu to Sun Yanling?"
This Sun Yanling is the son of the Marquis of Xingbo, last year, he was promoted to martial arts, and he sought the position of a lieutenant in the Imperial Forest Army, although it is not an important position, but it is also good among the sons of the gentlemen.
Empress Zhang inquired about Sun Yanling's family background and his appearance, but only one thing was missing, Sun Yanling is good at Nanfeng, and he has always been favored.
By the time Qing Ning found out, she had already worshiped heaven and earth with that person and became husband and wife, even if his royal brother was the lord of the world, he couldn't control the affairs of the princess's concubine.
Lin Su looked at the upright Princess Qingning who was sitting on the side, her cheeks were slightly red, and she also had some shyness unique to a girl, and when she heard her question, her originally straight waist also bent down, and she called out to the emperor brother coquettishly.
Empress Zhang smiled, "I don't know which one has a broken mouth, and the rumors have spread to the prince?" Seeing Lin Su looking at her curiously, she pursed her lips and smiled: "I heard that Shouchanghou mentioned it, so I sent someone to inquire, he is a good boy." โ
After everyone said goodbye, Lin Su cared about the queen's body, which made the queen feel a lot more in her heart. Although Lin Su is not her own child, the royal family has never paid attention to these, and interests are the most important.
The eldest prince watched Lin Su's gaze fall on Qing Ning's body, and secretly laughed in his heart, others don't know, that Sun Yanling, isn't the eldest prince still unclear? That's a good south wind master, and there seems to be a good friend on the tip of his heart, if Qing Ning marries, it is estimated that there will be no good life.
The eldest prince smiled, anyway, the unlucky ones were the prince's people, so he wouldn't remind Qing Ning and Lin Su to come.
The eldest prince suppressed his thoughts, and followed Princess Qingning to start talking and laughing with Empress Zhang.
Lin Su's brows twitched slightly, it seemed that the queen had a good impression of Sun Yanling. The officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty were not allowed to recruit prostitutes, so this south wind was popular in the capital for a long time, and they were not prostitutes, they could enter and leave the south wind hall in a bright way.
Therefore, people regard this as a fashion, similar to the people of later generations who went to Thailand to see ladyboys.
Empress Zhang thought the same thing, thinking that Sun Yanling was just young and romantic, but which man was not like this? When he became a family, he would naturally be able to retract his thoughts, but he didn't care much.
In the past, Lin Su and Empress Zhang had the same opinion, but Lin Su, who had experienced a lifetime, would not be confused by what was in front of him.
Thinking of Sun Yanling's affectionate affection for the so-called sweetheart, he was preparing Princess Shang.
also harmed Qing Ning like that, Lin Su felt unbearable.
"Queen Mother, I haven't heard much of this Sun Yanling's son, why don't you let your son's retainer take a good look?" Lin Su looked at Qingning and said, "Qingning is the pearl in your palm, how can you give it to outsiders lightly!"
"Brother Prince!" Qing Ning cried out angrily, "I won't tell you!" After that, he ran directly to the inner room.
"How can this kid be so rude?" the queen was a little annoyed.
Lin Su smiled and said that it was okay.
"That Sun Yanling......" The queen knew Sun Yanling from the mouth of the Marquis of Shouchang, and she had always known that her brother was unreliable, but what her mother's family always had to protect was that he was a scoundrel and had no choice
Lin Su smiled, "Qingning, it's Lone's sister." โ
The queen smiled, and there was a little joy in her heart, knowing that Lin Su was planning to arrange a marriage for Qingning, she was a little more down-to-earth in her heart.
The power of the Zhang family, since the death of her sister Concubine Shugui, has been declining, that is, she is the queen, but she does not have much power in her hands.
It's just that the queen knows that as long as the prince is there, there will be no problem with the Zhang family, the only trouble is that the prince and the Zhang family are not close, but thinking that the Zhang family is all mediocre now, the queen can also understand why the prince is not close to the Zhang family.
For the sake of today's plan, he had to think of another way to get close to the prince, and the queen glanced at it again, and Lin Su, who was sitting next to him, had a smile on his face that deepened a little.
On the other side, Gu Lang, who was planning to pack his bags and go back to the border gate, received a letter, Gu Lang looked at the content written on the letter happily, and sniffed the letter paper gently, in addition to the ink fragrance, there was another fragrance, like the smell of Nanmu, Gu Lang carefully took out a Nanmu box, and then put the letter in, in addition to the letter paper, there seemed to be small things such as wine cups and tea cups.
It was obviously a very ordinary thing, but Gu Lang packed them in a high-quality nanmu box, and then carefully placed it next to his pillow.
Beijing, Yuelai Inn.
Zhao Jin is a little restrained, he is a student who entered Beijing to take the exam. The township test is imminent, and the lifters near the capital gather in Yingtianfu, which will be the place where they can show their strength. The south has prospered since ancient times, Huiji, Yuyao and other famous champion counties, the Great Zhou Dynasty, in the annual imperial examination, the southerners always occupy the majority of the places.
In contrast, the competitiveness of the north is much worse than that of the south, so many people who have a way to move their household registration from the south to the north, although they can not let themselves get the first place in the Jinshi department, but the township test is a little more certain, a bit similar to the college entrance examination in later generations......
Zhao Jin was one of these people, and he was sitting by the window talking to a few fellow villagers at this time.
It was the first time he had come to such a bustling place, and the streets were full of traffic and people. Wang Donglai, a fellow villager, is obviously more open than him, he has a solid family since he was a child, and his father is a squire. I have seen more of the world. Even so, Wang Donglai's gaze kept turning around, obviously his heart was not so calm.
"I heard that when you come to the capital, you must go to a place. Wang Donglai said with a smile, with an expression on his face that anyone who understands it.
"Must?" Zhao Jin looked at the few fellow villagers in front of him a little confused.
Wang Dongsheng laughed and said, "Brother Zhao probably hasn't seen it, right?"
"We're going to see tonight. โ
"It's a good place in the capital. If Brother Zhao didn't go to see and see, he would have come in vain. โ
Ruyi Ju.
Zhu Siniang looked at the guests coming and going downstairs, holding a cup of agarwood for twenty taels of silver in her hand. She is the proprietress of Ruyiju, and because of Xingsi, she is called Zhu Siniang.
This Zhu Siniang has three elder brothers, but unfortunately none of them are successful. I haven't seen them do it, eating, drinking, and having fun, stealing chickens and touching dogs, but they are proficient in one game.
Zhu Siniang's father saw that his son was not successful, so he gave this wishful house to Zhu Siniang, but asked Zhu Siniang to take care of his three brothers. At that time, some people said that her father was confused, and this belongings were indeed ruined in the hands of his son, but in the hands of his daughter, it was not necessarily ruined.
What is surprising is that Zhu Siniang, a weak woman, slowly survived.
You must know that it is not easy for Zhu Siniang to operate Ruyiju into what it is today in this huge capital city as a woman.
Today's Ruyiju is already the largest green building in the capital.
Many people secretly guessed that there must be someone else behind this wishful house. You must know that this is the capital, and a piece of red bean cake falling from the sky can hit a powerful place.
I just don't know who the person behind this wishful dwelling is?
Zhu Siniang didn't care what other people thought, she still opened her own Ruyi House to welcome visitors from all over the world, and occasionally people who made trouble disappeared into the noise silently.
A delicately dressed little maid hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in Zhu Siniang's ear. Zhu Siniang's eyes lit up, and she ordered the little maid a few words. Then the little maid hurriedly went down, Zhu Siniang smiled and drank all the wine in the cup.
It's time for the show.
Zhao Jin stared straight at the wine glass in front of him, afraid of seeing something that he shouldn't see, and his white jade-like face was also red as if it was dripping blood.
There was a bewitching + charming woman sitting next to him. The woman was smiling and urging wine.
"Zhao Gongzi, you can have a drink!"
Zhao Jin leaned back, blushing and pushing away the glass of wine that was handed to his lips. The girl's face was pale, and she didn't look good.
If he had known that he had come to this place, he would not have come here no matter how curious he was.
Wang Dongsheng looked at him like that and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, now you have to have fun in time, it's your fault for snubbing the beauty." โ
With that, he drank the wine that the other woman had brought to his lips.
The woman smiled and said, "Childe is probably the first time to come!"
A few fellow villagers next to him laughed: "Naturally, it's the first time to come!" "Brother Zhao usually uses sage books as a companion, how can he go to the wind and snow." โ
Zhao Jin was embarrassed, and his face turned even redder. Don't say anything about the incivility in your heart, and don't move it.
"Bang! Bang!"
A man dressed as a domestic servant suddenly rolled down the stairs, and it looked as if he had been thrown from the stairs. Then another richly dressed man was thrown down, and the man was handsome and tall. Judging by his clothes, he should also be a powerful person, but he didn't know who he provoked, so he was thrown away.
The first floor of Ruyi House is generally only for some wealthy businessmen, while the second floor is for some more wealthy people. It's just that these people generally don't take arguments lightly, so it's rare to be thrown away like this.
Wang Dongsheng looked around, put a piece of silver in the hand of the girl sitting next to him, and said, "This is the wine money." "Let's take a few fellow villagers out.
The girl looked at the faces of the group of people coming downstairs and turned white, so she could still take care of Zhao Jin and them.
Wang Dongsheng took Zhao Jin and a few fellow villagers out, and several guests around him also went out. This is the capital, and if you can't afford to provoke it, you can at least hide.
Zhao Jin followed Wang Dongsheng out in a daze, and a few fellow villagers muttered: "Bad luck." โ
He was actually very happy not to have to face those women.
Wang Dongsheng's face sank: "Let's not mention this matter again." Although a few fellow villagers were dissatisfied, they still did not speak. Looking at the dissatisfied eyes of his fellow villagers, Wang Dongsheng explained: "The people on the second floor are either rich or expensive, and I am afraid that disaster will come from the mouth. โ
Ruyi Curie is a different story.
The two groups were facing each other in the hall.
Sun Yanling watched the little man who was tactfully under him on weekdays being hugged in the arms of the richly dressed young man, and he was on fire.
Seeing the people around him scattered, it seemed that what he was doing here would also be spread, and he was even more angry in his heart.
If you don't teach this teenager a lesson, then how will it end up in your own face.
Seeing Sun Yanling's ruthless look, the young man smiled indifferently. Reaching out and touching the person in his arms, the face of the person in his arms changed. He looked at the person who held him in his arms, the people in the capital, he had seen a lot. It's just that he really hasn't seen this person.
Speaking of which, he was also unlucky, today Siniang said that he wanted him to receive a distinguished guest, who knew that Master Sun was here, and asked him to come over on the spot. Lord Sun is his frequent visitor, if it was in the past, he would have gone, but this eye-born master did not want to.
So this kind of drama of two men fighting for one man was staged on him.
The imperial court stipulated that officials were not allowed to recruit prostitutes, but if they were petty men, they would not interfere much. Like the larger Qinglou, there are basically small ones, and Ruyiju naturally has them, and satisfaction is one of the top cards. It's just that he can't afford to offend these two today, so he just hopes that Siniang will come over quickly and be able to dissuade them quickly.
"Where did the southern barbarians come from, but they played a majestic hand. The boy scoffed.
"Who are you?" Sun Yanling said as he looked at him.
The young man smiled and ignored Sun Yanling, and ordered his subordinates: "Fight to the death." โ
Sun Yanling came secretly, after all, he still has the princess's marriage contract on him, although it has not been announced to the world, it is only circulated among a small number of people.
is going to marry a princess, naturally you can't linger in this fireworks land for a long time, at least you have to be clean and self-conscious, so Sun Yanling didn't make a big show, only brought two loyal little guys, and he couldn't compare to the young gangsters, and he was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face after a while.
Seeing that Sun Daren, who was usually high-minded, was treated like this, he was also shocked. He moved more carefully, for fear of upsetting the young man.
Zhu Siniang looked at the chaos downstairs and instructed the little maid beside her: "Go to retribution to Tianfu." โ
It took Zhao Jin a few days to learn that it was Yanling, the son of the Marquis of Xingbo of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who was making trouble in the Qinglou that day. It's just a matter of wind and moon, but it's full of wind and rain. When Zhao Jin and his fellow villagers were discussing, Wang Dongsheng didn't say anything.
Zhao Jin looked at Wang Dongsheng a little strangely, doesn't Brother Wang usually like to talk about these things the most? Why didn't he say a word today? Isn't there something inappropriate?
Wang Dongsheng lowered his voice and said, "Be cautious, I'm afraid this matter can't be explained by a romantic matter." โ
A few fellow villagers looked at the people who were discussing around them and stopped talking.
Zhao Jin looked around, and almost the entire capital knew about it. It seems that it's better not to mess with it, the imperial examination is approaching, and it's better to read a few more books.
Inside the Palace......
Qing Ning's former vitality was gone, and her eyes were full of anger and accusation
The queen held her hand and couldn't help but cry: "Child, you have been wronged. โ
It's not that he was wronged, Sun Yanling went directly to Shuntian Mansion for the sake of a little guy and someone making trouble in the Qinglou. This matter has spread throughout the capital, although there are not many people who know that the queen intends to marry Princess Qingning to Sun Yanling, but those who know have sighed that Princess Qingning is unladylike, and the matchmaker Shouchanghou should be dragged to Yingtianfu to have a good fight, and the docile Qingning in the past is also resentful.
I thought that the family business that my mother chose for her was good, but she had also secretly seen Sun Yanling, and she was handsome. It's just that I didn't expect him to be so inconsistent, she and him are already talking about marriage, and this kind of thing happens at this time, isn't this a naked slap in the face of โกโก!
How does this make her deal with herself!
The mother and daughter of Cining Palace were complaining, but Lin Su was worrying about another matter.
Gu Lang did a good job, Sun Yanling had this incident, he definitely couldn't be a colt anymore, so what about Qingning's pony candidates?
Lin Su's brows furrowed even tighter......
