"Hey~ It's okay, it's okay!"

Lu Fang got off the horse and was led down by the little servant in the Jiang Mansion, then he smiled and waved his hand, and said: "There are many guests today, and Jiang Shilang has no time to doppelganger, which is normal, and we can naturally understand." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

When the steward heard this, he thanked and thanked him, and chatted with Lu Fang and Lu Yun outside the door for a while, and when the carriage blocked in front of the gate was almost in Jiang's mansion, he pretended to slap himself and scolded himself: "Look at my tongue-in-cheek problem, I was excited for a while, but I delayed the business, and let the two adults delay outside the door for so long, it's really a sin!"

After speaking, he bowed down again, smiled and said, "Two adults, please come with me." ”

Lu Yun and Lu Fang were not surprised by this, and calmly took Lu Shuo and the little guy behind him, and followed the steward into Jiang's mansion.

As for the ladies of the Lu Mansion and the banquet, they were still riding in the carriage, mixed in the carriage procession, and slowly drove in through the side door.

Lu Shuo followed closely behind the two, slowly moving in, while carefully taking a look at the layout of the Jiang Mansion, and saw that the Jiang Mansion was much smaller than the Jingguo Mansion, and it looked very ordinary, and it belonged to the regular and neat Sanpin Jingguan custom.

Despite this, the layout of the courtyard is very exquisite, the pavilions and pavilions are scattered in the garden, quite a bit of the Jiangnan garden is elegant and full of wild artistic conception.

But!

Lu Shuo's eyes flashed.

Such an environment is very easy for Tibetans, and it is even more convenient to do dirty and private things!

Walking and stopping all the way, passing the Yimen, and then walking along the long hand-copying verandah for a quarter of an hour, Lu Shuo and his party finally arrived at the main hall of today's Jiangfu Flower Banquet.

Lu Yun stood in front of the door, looked up, and saw that under the golden sun, the huge mahogany plaque was shining with golden light.

Tsurumei Hall.

Lu Shuo thought silently in his heart.

The crane sings in Jiugao, and the sound is heard in the sky.

What a good name!

Lu Shuo was sighing to himself, and a few people had already walked out of the hall to greet Lu Yun and Lu Fang.

"It turned out to be Grandpa Guo and Lord Lu!" was an unfamiliar male voice.

"If you miss the distance, you will miss the welcome! If you neglect it, please forgive me. ”

Lu Shuo looked carefully, and saw that the person who started was about forty years old, looking tall and elegant, with a red face, and he was the first to open his mouth to greet him, although Lu Shuo had never seen him, he also knew that he must be Jiang Jinghua, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.

Jiang Jinghua, one of the masterminds of the last government trial!

Lu Shuo thought of the disgusting things he had done to the Jingguo Mansion with Gao Zhuo, and then saw that he was now long-sleeved and good at dancing, and he was affectionate to Lu Yun and Lu Fang, he only felt very ironic, and couldn't help sneering in his heart.

"Don't dare, don't dare! There are so many guests today, and Master Jiang can't afford to lose sight of one or the other. What's more, the housekeeper is very thoughtful in his words and actions, so we naturally won't have any dissatisfaction!"

Lu Fang followed and said a few polite words.

The three of you come and go, and after saying a few words with a smile, Jiang Jinghua turned his head, looked at Lu Shuo carefully, raised his eyebrows, and asked Lu Yun: "This is my virtuous nephew Lu Shuo! I have never seen it after returning to Beijing for so long!"

After speaking, he glanced at Lu Shuo again, and saw that he was long and jade, his face was like a crown of jade, and he was polite.

It lives up to his wife Roche's praise for him!

"It's the dog. Lu Yun smiled when he heard this, pointed at Jiang Jinghua, and said to Lu Shuo: "Don't come and see your Uncle Jiang soon!"

Although Lu Shuo despised in his heart, he had to smile on his face, he took a step forward, bowed his hand, and said to Jiang Jinghua in a loud voice: "Junior Lu Shuo, I have seen Uncle Jiang!"

"Hurry up, please get up, they are all close to their own family, so you don't have to be so polite. ”

Jiang Jinghua said this, but he still accepted Lu Shuo's salute safely, and when Lu Shuo was about to get up, he hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and helped Lu Shuo up.

When Lu Shuo heard "someone close to his family", the corners of his mouth twitched.

Hell of your own family!

Lu Shuo was still complaining, and a person suddenly appeared behind them, looked at Lu Shuo, and asked Lu Yun: "This is Lu Shuo, the head of this year's county government examination? ”

When Lu Shuo heard this, he glanced at him with his eyes, and saw that although he was dressed very exquisitely, there was no obvious sign, and he couldn't guess his identity for a while.

"It's him!" Lu Yun said.

After speaking, he glanced at Lu Shuo, and Lu Shuo respectfully gave this person a look according to the precedent.

Lu Yun smiled at this time and said humbly: "It's just a little clever! ”

"This is not a little clever! If you don't have real talent and real learning, how can you win the first place twice! Moreover, according to the situation of the first two county government examinations, Ling Gongzi wants to win the first place in the hospital examination, and it is completely no longer a problem. The imperial examination of our Beijing division has been held for so many years, and there are not many people who can get the 'little three yuan'!"

When Lu Yun heard this, he shook his head and said, "Talking about this in front of you, it's really a class to get an axe! Your eldest son is a two-rank jinshi at a young age, and he is counted in the entire Beijing Division. If you praise like this, then the lower official's face will turn red!"

Lord Zhou?

Lu Shuo smiled and looked at the square-faced and well-eared man in front of him, and heard Lu Yun mention that the eldest son of his family was young and promising, and he had already confirmed in his heart that this must be Zhou Liangfu, the secretary of the ministry.

Thinking of this, his heart shook slightly.

Even the secretary of the ministry asked him to invite him, but I don't know what Jiang Jinghua and Gao Zhuo want to do this time?

Zhou Liangfu seemed to be very familiar with Lu Yun, after hearing Lu Yun's words, he stroked his beard and laughed twice, and after saying "Lord Lu is too humble", he no longer dwelled on this, but said with a smile: "We have also delayed some work outside! There are many adults waiting in the hall, so it is better to go in as soon as possible." ”

There is a reason for that. Several people agreed with this, and they no longer stayed outside the door for a long time, and slowly moved inside.

Lu Yun also followed into the hall.

The area of the Crane Hall is very large, and it is built because of the water, and the windows are open all around, which makes it even more spacious. The three halls of the Heming Hall are connected, and the tables and chairs placed in the room are not only the tables and chairs of the banquet guests, but also the chessboard, the pitching pot and other things, with a variety of patterns, and the arrangement is very elaborate.

As soon as Lu Shuo came in, as far as his eyes could see, there were already more than 40 people in the hall, most of them were court officials, and of course, there were also young men like him who followed his father to the banquet.

At this time, these people were roughly divided into two groups.

Adult gentlemen get together, or talk about current affairs, or play games and poems, and the atmosphere is very strong.

The young men are more scattered, three in a handful, five in a cluster, all doing everything, and they look extremely lively! If it weren't for the fact that their fathers were here, I am afraid that they would have made a fuss.
