Chapter 45: Let him not be too late
The next day, Gu Qingxuan decided to go to see Yin Jiheng, confess to him, and test whether Yin Jiheng had the intention of marrying the Lu family. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info On the way to Yinfu, he went to Jiangyuelou on the way, met with Jiang Hechuan, and looked at the list of guests who booked seats in Jiangyuelou's private room as usual, and did not stay longer.
Gu Qingxuan and Yin Jiheng corresponded with each other, ostensibly only in the name of "Yin Shenglu", but today his pseudonymous sticker was just sent to Yin's mansion, and Yin Jiheng, who was at home, personally greeted him in the front hall and talked to him alone in the tearoom study.
The Yin Mansion has been rich for several generations, and its style is unique, which is difficult to compare with other royal officials, and is not only limited to the superficial shallowness of wealth and luxury, the nobility of the Yin family is not self-revealed, antique, and the scenery is everywhere, and any inconspicuous plaque may be the title of the royal nobles.
Gu Qingxuan stopped under the plaque in the study and glanced up: "Wan Yuzhai? strange, from the gate to the main gate, there is no plaque that is not from the hands of nobles and celebrities, but the doctor's study does not have a resounding signature? Who wrote this?"
Yin Jiheng entered first and said casually: "This is not from any royal family, this plaque was written by my grandfather...... It's just that the emperor himself grinds the ink...... At that time, the first emperor was still the crown prince. ”
"Heh~" Gu Qingxuan smiled lowly, put his hands between his sleeves, walked in indifferently, and said quickly: "I'm relieved." ”
Yin Jiheng invited him to sit down while fiddling with the tea set, "What does Brother Gu Xian mean?"
Gu Qingxuan said: "I have learned that Lu Yuanzhi wants to be your in-laws with the doctor, before that, I was a little worried that the doctor would agree to go to the Yin Mansion for a walk, only then did I understand that Gu himself was thinking too much, the Lu family, hum, I'm afraid you still can't look down on Doctor Yin?"
Yin Jiheng's hand pouring tea paused, and after hearing this, he smiled and said: "Haha, if the old man thinks, Brother Gu Xian is here to ask the old man about this, haha, Brother Gu Xian, you can't say this if you look at it, the Yin family doesn't dare to be proud, it's just that if you marry the Lu family, the old man really doesn't have this plan." Brother Gu Xian, the old man once swore to you that he would share the throne with the Gu family, how could he break the contract?"
Gu Qingxuan took a cup of fragrant tea he handed over, took a sip, and said, "Whether the doctor looks down on the Lu family or not, but seeing that the doctor will reject the Lu family's in-laws, Gu Mou is a little uncertain in his heart......
"What is Brother Gu Xian wondering about?"
He looked at Yin Jiheng and said, "The doctor doesn't even disdain to conspire with the Lu family, so how can he look down on the Gu family who is as humble as a mustard at this time?"
"Humble as a mustard?" Yin Jiheng stroked his beard and laughed, shook his head and said, "Brother Gu Xian, is this laughing at himself or is he laughing at me for being clumsy?" If someone else runs in front of the old man and says that he wants to fight against the Lu family, the old man will only beat him out directly as a madman, and Brother Gu Xian, you ...... Hehe, twenty years, you know the Lu family best, you hate the Lu family the most, and it is still your Gu family who can protect yourself after being beaten and oppressed by the Lu family.
Gu Qingxuan smiled, his hands were flat, and he saluted respectfully: "With the doctor's words of such a heart, the Gu family has no regrets!"
Yin Jiheng took his hand, patted the back of his hand, and said with sincerity: "Brother Gu Xian knows my heart now?" Don't worry, the old man will never agree to the marriage with the Lu family, even if the emperor decrees marriage, the old man has his own ......."
"Nope. He shook his head, interrupted Yin Jiheng's sworn words, and said calmly: "No, doctor, you should agree." ”
Yin Jiheng was puzzled, "Promise, it's not that the old man heard it wrong, right? What does Brother Gu Xian mean?"
He replied: "Xiangguo asks for marriage, the emperor gives marriage, how can the Yin family refuse? Why do you want to offend the now powerful Lu family on the surface? Isn't Doctor Yin asking for trouble? Therefore, Doctor Yin, you not only have to agree, but also take the initiative to invite Lu Yuanzhi to discuss the marriage of his children, and you must be solemn, bring Ling Lang to set up a banquet to entertain Lu Xiangguo in order to make a marriage on the spot, the banquet scene should not be perfunctory, you have to choose a first-class place, Jiang Yuelou is good, and the time has to be picked auspicious, without further ado, good things are decided early, just about three o'clock tomorrow. I also hope that the doctor will be solemn and not let down Lu Xiangguo's good intentions. ”
……
Another day, Yin Jiheng really wrote a handwritten letter to invite Lu Yuanzhi to Jiangyue Tower to a banquet to talk about the marriage of his children, his words were very sincere, and he was full of joy all day long, and Lu Yuanzhi met him up and down, and he was even more cordial.
That night, he set up a banquet in Jiangyue Tower, and his third son Yin Qixiu arrived early to wait for Lu Yuanzhi's arrival. Lu Yuanzhi was naturally overjoyed in his heart, and wanted to ask his two sons to go to the banquet with him, but the two of them were punished for kneeling for a day and a night, and they did not waver, resolutely opposed this marriage, and refused to come at all, Lu Yuanzhi was too lazy to be angry with them, so he took Mrs. Huang to Jiangyuelou for the banquet together, but because of the lesson to his son, he was delayed for some time and went out late.
At the same time, it is the time when the lights in Chang'an City are on, and it is also the time when Jiangyuelou is lively at night, although Jiangyuelou is not as noisy and crowded as the general restaurant, but at this time it is also an endless stream of guests. At this time, most of them are not idle people, they are either rich or expensive, and they often come in groups, and Jiang Hechuan will personally go downstairs to greet these guests, for fear of being neglected.
Jiang Hechuan saw a middle-aged man wearing a gold silk smock and a jewel and jade crown, and a generous and graceful temperament walked in from outside the door, and there was a group of military companions behind him, he hurriedly stepped forward respectfully and greeted him with a smile: "I have seen the prince below! I have seen all the adults! Distinguished guests are coming to the door, and our store is full of brilliance! Hurry up, please upstairs, the banquet in the private room on the fourth floor has been prepared, and the general repertoire must be tired of listening to the nobles, so I specially invited a new musician to play the drum music for you, which is very heroic and beautiful, and it can be a pleasure!"
King Jin Xuan and all the Imperial Forest Army Inspectors and Second Lieutenants led the army and others to laugh, and he led them upstairs, and King Jin Xuan praised: "Boss Jiang has a heart, so good!"
Jiang Hechuan said politely: "It should be, it should be, all the adults have worked hard to lead the Imperial Forest Army, and the other official offices are all closed every five days, only the adults have a different period of rest, and they have worked for a long time to protect the safety of the imperial city, it is rare for the prince to be such a compassionate boss, Yueyue and the adults came out to eat and drink to relieve fatigue, and they all took care of my Jiang Yuelou's business, I am really not very grateful, shouldn't I think about the prince and the adults?
King Jin Xuan and they only laughed with him, went up to the second floor, passed by a wine room, the door of the wine room was not closed, a few scholars and sons looked like people drinking and chatting in it, King Jin Xuan suddenly heard that they seemed to be talking about the affairs of Jin Xuan Palace, so he slowed down and heard that there was a humanity inside: "I see, there is a variable a day in this Chang'an City, you see that the Lu family and the Jin Xuan Mansion have become relatives, a great good thing, but, I see, it will not last long...... Haven't you heard? King Jin Xuan married his baby county lord to Xiangguo Mansion, the county lord didn't have a good life, I heard that just a few days ago, the little county lord was bullied by his mother-in-law's family and ran away, and he wanted to run away from home, which may mean how much he was wronged...... So you see, where does the Lu family put the Jinxuan Mansion in their eyes? It's just a false name......
