The sun is shining, the warblers are singing and butterflies are dancing, shuttling through the purple and red hills, and there is a different state of mind.

Yun Qing walked to the small pavilion halfway up the hill, looked at the green bushes in the garden and the clusters of blooming flowers, and said with a smile: "The princess likes flowers very much, if she sees these, she will definitely be very happy." "Yunqing didn't like flowers and plants before, but after living with Yuxi for so many years, he has also been affected a little, and when he is tired, he will walk in the garden to relax and relax.

The house where Yunqing now lives occupies nearly 20 acres of land, has eight courtyards, and an exquisite back garden.

Du Zheng smiled and said: "Since the princess likes flowers, why don't you find a good florist and send it to Ho City." "It's too far away to send flowers, and the flowers will wither before they reach Pickaxe City. But send a florist, who can bring seeds and plant them. If you can't appreciate it this year, you can see it next year.

Yun Qing shook his head with a smile and said, "The gardener's skills in the palace are also good, so there is no need to send another one." "If you want to send it, send it to what the palace doesn't have.

Du Zheng said with a smile: "I heard that the princess has always wanted to find a good gentleman for Brother Rui. There are many talented people in Jiangnan, and they should be able to find a gentleman who satisfies the princess. ”

Yunqing had this idea for a long time, and had already sent someone to inquire: "Not only do you have to find a good gentleman for Brother Rui, but you also have to find a gentleman with college questions for Ah Hao." "The gentlemen in the mansion are very attentive, but their knowledge is always a little worse. His son is very intelligent, so it is better to find a few great Confucianists, so as not to be delayed.

When Du Zheng heard this, he said: "If you want to invite the great Confucian to teach the prince, you have to come forward to invite the prince himself." "These scholars are very arrogant, even if Yunqing invites them, they may not be willing to teach the prince.

Yun Qing thought for a moment and said: "Liu Er is very talented in music, since he is looking for Mr. Ah Hao and Ah Rui, then he can't favor one over the other." "Yunqing is going to find a gentleman for Liu Er who is good at music.

Du Zheng said with a smile: "The prince is really a good father, I have to study hard with the prince." "If it were someone else who was always thinking about his wife and children when he went out, Du Zheng might feel that it was too childlike. But this person is Yunqing, so he can only admire.

While the two were talking, Si Bonian walked over and said, "Lord Wang, General Yu is back." "Yunqing sent Yu Cong to attack Yancheng.

Yun Qing returned to the study, and Yu Cong was already waiting in the courtyard at this time. Yunqing smiled and said, "It's hard work. "The big picture has been decided, and it doesn't take much effort to subdue other states and counties. This time he asked Yu Cong to attack Yancheng, and it was also Yunqing who deliberately gave him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

Yu Cong saluted Yunqing first, then shook his head and said, "Things are going well, it's not hard at all." "Yu Cong is among Yunqing's henchmen, and he is the one who talks the least.

Yunqing smiled and said, "You're tired these days, go down and have a good rest first." It's not too late to tell me about Yancheng's affairs when you're rested. "The main thing is that Yancheng has been defeated, and the next thing is the follow-up governance.

There are only two people left in the study, Du Zheng and Yunqing. Du Zheng thought for a while and said, "Lord Wang, is there something I don't know whether to say or not?" Because it was a private matter, he was also a little entangled.

Yunqing raised his head, looked at Du Zheng and said, "What's the matter?" What can make Du Zheng difficult to speak, it is definitely not a business.

Du Zheng said: "I heard a rumor that Yu Cong's twins were not biological, but adopted. It was also because Du Zheng was suspicious that he said this.

Yun Qing asked with a bad face, "Where did you hear the rumors?"

Du Zheng said: "The pickaxe city has spread all over the city. Lord, let the princess check on this matter! If the two children were really raised by the Lin family, they should also let Yu Cong know. ”

After listening to Du Zheng's words, Yunqing said, "Do you think those two children are not Yu Cong's?" If Du Zheng hadn't had this idea, he wouldn't have said anything to let him investigate.

Du Zheng nodded and said: "I remember that the Lin family never showed up from pregnancy to childbirth, and then suddenly said that she had given birth to twins. It's understandable that the twins are weak and can't do anything with the full moon, but it's weird if they don't even see the guests. After the child was full moon, my wife went to visit once, and when I came back, my wife said that Lin's complexion was too good to look like someone who had given birth. Du Zheng's wife has given birth to three children, and she has a good idea of what a woman will be like after confinement.

Yun Qing said: "You can't judge that the two children are adopted by the Lin family based on these, not the Lin family's own birth. ”

Du Zheng said: "The same father and mother, and they are twins, no matter how the two of them are, they can't be like each other at all, right? What's more, these two children are not similar to Lin and Yu Cong from beginning to end. "Like Brother Rui, although it is not exactly the same as Brother Xuan'er and Brother You'er, it is also three or four points similar!

Seeing that Yun Qing frowned and didn't speak, Du Zheng said, "Lord Wang, I don't want Yu Cong to be kept in the dark. Either way, he should know about it. Because Yu Cong has a deep affection for the Lin family, everything is up to her, so Du Zheng thought that all this was done by the Lin family, and Yu Cong didn't know it.

Yun Qing knew that if he didn't say it now, Du Zheng would definitely go to talk to Yu Cong about it. Yun Qing sighed and said, "These two children were brought by Yu Cong. "Yuxi was right at the beginning, Yu Cong and the Lin family were covering their ears and stealing the bell. In fact, outsiders have long suspected it, but no one has said it.

Du Zheng was a little incomprehensible: "Why? If you are raised, why do you say that it was born by the Lin family?" I don't have an aversion to adopting someone else's child.

Yun Qing said: "This is what the Lin family meant. The princess said that the Lin family should not want the child's biological parents to come to the door, so they will do this. "In fact, even if you can deceive others, you can still deceive yourself!

Du Zheng couldn't figure it out: "Why don't you take care of orphans who have no father and mother, and you want to raise children with fathers and mothers?"

Yun Qing shook his head and said, "The Lin family is reluctant to have a child whose parents are dead, and I don't know the reason. Yu Cong depends on the Lin family for everything, and he has agreed to it himself, so I can't stop it. "This is a private matter, and he can't make decisions for Yu Cong.

Du Zheng was completely speechless, and after a while, he said: "I don't know what Yu Cong thinks? "If you do such a foolish thing, you will be annoyed in the future.

Yun Qing said: "Yu Cong's own choice in this matter, we can't control it, let him be!"

Du Zheng nodded, he couldn't even control Yunqing, let alone him.

On the evening of the third day after Yu Cong returned, Gao Song asked him for a drink. Seeing that Yu Cong was a little hesitant, Gao Song smiled and said, "It's night now, even if you get drunk, you can't delay it." Or do you look down on me and think I don't deserve to drink with you?" However, because Yunqing is very busy, this matter is not conspicuous. But others don't know, but Takamatsu himself knows. Takamatsu was depressed about this.

When Yu Cong heard this, he said unhappily: "What is unworthy, it would be too undesirable to say this." ”

Takamatsu smiled and said, "Then come with me for a drink." He didn't let Yu Cong go to the restaurant, and took Yu Cong directly to the house he bought.

The Takamatsu Mansion is a courtyard of a wealthy family, and it is not large, but it is a three-entry house. However, the house is graceful and small, and there is a scene in ten steps in the back house, which is a typical Jiangnan style.

Looking at Gao Song's house, Yu Cong said: "Your house is well organized. "This house is comfortable to live in.

Gao Song smiled and said, "If you like it, then you can also buy one." "If you want to buy such a house now, it's just a matter of one sentence.

Yu Cong shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'm going back to Ho City in a while, and I don't need to buy a house here." "If he stays here, he will definitely buy a good house. Since you want to go back to Pickaxe City, there is no need.

Gao Song said: "You won't suffer a loss if you buy this house." After three or five years, this side is stable, and then you sell this house, and you will definitely make a profit. After speaking, Gao Song smiled: "That's how I got the idea, that's why I bought this house." ”

Yu Cong still shook his head and said, "How much can you earn?" Yu Cong now got a lot last time, and he didn't have a lot of money.

Gao Song said: "If you don't buy it now, if you want to buy it in the future, it won't be the price it is now." "Gao Song originally wanted to buy the writing field, but this part was owned by Yunqing, and the land could not be traded for the time being.

Yu Cong said with a smile: "This house also needs popularity, and if you can't buy it, it will soon be ruined." "When the time comes, he will have to spend money on repairs, so he doesn't have to work hard.

Takamatsu smiled and said, "Since you're not interested, forget it." "Yu Cong has a tendon, he already knows this.

The table in the living room was full of dishes. There are kung pao chicken, eight-treasure duck, ginkgo mushrooms, Longjing shrimp, fried crab butter, squirrel fish, stewed lion's head, mapo tofu, shark fin pork rib soup.

Seeing this, Yu Cong said, "This is too extravagant!"

Gao Song pulled Yu Cong to sit down and said, "These are all special dishes of Jiangnan, and you must try them all when you come to Jiangnan." ”

Yu Cong was also more frugal, and said, "Then you have a lot of money, right?" This table can't be done without eight hundred and ten taels, he feels that it is too expensive.

Takamatsu smiled and said, "I asked the chef to make it myself, not the noodles I bought." However, this chef used to be the assistant of the chef of the restaurant, and his skills are not bad. ”

Yu Cong only sent two sentences of emotion, they can have today with their lives, and it is understandable to have a good meal occasionally. Yu Cong first sandwiched a piece of squirrel fish, nodded after eating, and said, "Well, the craftsmanship is really good." As for how to make it delicious, he can't say why.

Takamatsu smiled and said, "If it's delicious, eat more." After speaking, he stood up and poured a glass of wine for Yu Cong.
