Chapter 60: Taste

In the blink of an eye, it is April, and the scenery in Beijing is becoming more and more vibrant, with warblers singing and dancing everywhere, and green willows blowing in the wind. The affairs of the micro-service patrol are still being prepared, but Zhu Shiyang has long been unable to sit still, and he has to go out of the palace after dealing with political affairs every day, saying that he will experience the feeling of going out of the palace in advance. Lu Wenyuan, Zhu Shiji and the others were too busy to be busy, how could they still care about him, and seeing that he was measured, they let him go.

Zhu Shiyang has lived a really good time. On this day, Zhu Shiyang saw that the weather was good, so he led a few brocade guards out of the palace to play, and walked down all the way, and the sky was already dark. Zhu Shiyang was not yet happy, so he wandered around the Forbidden City casually.

The streets of Beijing are particularly lively, and the small traders and vendors are tired of a day, but at this time they all let go of their voices and shout loudly, it turns out that they want to make a lot of money before closing the stalls. Zhu Shiyang walked and stopped with interest, and unconsciously arrived in front of a large family, looked up, and suddenly thought of the house he gave to Lu Wenyuan a few days ago, and the green bamboo and willows in the house should grow lush now, but I don't know how Lu Wenyuan lives in it.

As soon as Zhu Shiyang thought of this, he made up his mind to go and visit, thinking that although it was getting late now, if he went and returned quickly, he would be able to go back to the Forbidden City before the palace gate was locked, so he led a group of brocade guards straight to Lu Wenyuan's mansion.

Lu Wenyuan's house was two streets away, Zhu Shiyang didn't look all the way, and after a while, he arrived, standing in front of the wide gate and looking up. The door plaque has now been hung on the lintel of the house, and the two big characters "Lufu" are written on it. These two words were originally begged by Zhu Shiji for Lu Wenyuan from him, and they can be called the royal pen himself. Zhu Shiyang stood at the bottom and watched at this time, and he really felt that the gesture was atmospheric, majestic and majestic, worthy of being written by the Son of Heaven, and the more he read, the more he felt satisfied.

While he was self-absorbed, the heavy door suddenly "creaked" and opened half wide. A housekeeper came out of it, carrying a large broom, about to clean the front of the door. Seeing Zhu Shiyang standing at the door, he was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recognized him, stepped forward and said, "Isn't this Huang Gongzi?" ”

It turned out that the family members in the Lu Mansion were all personally selected by Zhu Shiyang and Zhu Shiji from the south of the city, so they still know each other. Zhu Shiyang nodded and said, "Your master is at home now? ”

But the family Ding was surprised: "What you are talking about is Lord Lu Wenyuan, he hasn't moved here yet, if you want to see him, you have to go to the Fu Mansion in the city." As he spoke, he enthusiastically pointed out the way to Fu's Mansion for Zhu Shiyang.

Of course, Zhu Shiyang knew how to go to the Fu Mansion, and he didn't care about this, so he interrupted the family with a wave of his hand, and frowned: "You said that Lu Wenyuan hasn't moved in yet?"

When the family heard Zhu Shiyang call Lu Wenyuan's name and surname, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and secretly wondered in his heart. Even if this Huang Gongzi is rich and powerful, how can he dare to speak disrespectfully to the current court's first assistant? Just wanted to open his mouth to defend his master, but Zhu Shiyang pushed him away and went straight into the house. The accompanying brocade guards also rushed in after him, knocking the family into a mess, and they didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

Zhu Shiyang walked around the house, and sure enough, he didn't see Lu Wenyuan's shadow, the bed tent was very clean, the bedding was brand new, and no one had slept on it. The courtyard is covered with flowers and trees, lush and green, but it looks hollow for no reason, and even the sound of birds at dusk is heard in the ears, and it has lost a bit of vitality.

Zhu Shiyang was very depressed standing in the courtyard, this house has been rewarded for more than a month, and it is time to move over after moving a few times, but Lu Wenyuan is still living in Fu Qian's mansion until now, and it is clear that he has not taken this reward to heart.

Zhu Shiyang used to reward people, which one was not grateful to Dade, rejoicing, and regarded him as a treasure, but he was lukewarm, not only did he count himself down in advance, but he didn't care about it afterwards. Zhu Shiyang felt that he was being despised and wanted to find Fu Qian's mansion to question Lu Wenyuan, but he was blocked by the brocade guards, saying that the Forbidden City was about to be locked, and it was better to go back earlier.

Jin Yiwei will not interfere with the emperor's actions, and now that he is like this, he is probably afraid that Zhu Shiyang will leave the palace too often, and he will not return at night, which will attract the attention of the previous dynasty. Zhu Shiyang was angry, and it made sense to think about it, after all, he was going to go out on patrol in a few days, and now it is better not to go against the previous dynasty, especially the class of officials, if there is trouble another day, the news of the micro-service patrol will be poked out, and his micro-service will be "micro" meaningless.

Zhu Shiyang weighed it again and again, and finally endured this breath, glanced hatefully in the direction of the Fu Mansion in the city, and then took the brocade guards back to the palace.

Back in the palace, Zhu Shiyang still thought about it, but the more he thought about it, the more depressed he felt. After dinner, I didn't have the heart to do anything else, so I hugged the brocade quilt and flipped through the scrolls on the couch in front of the window.

After a while, Zhu Shiji came back from outside. During this period of time, he was also busy enough, just because Zhu Shiyang was the shopkeeper, and the preparation for leaving the palace and micro-clothes fell on his head, not only to be responsible for the procurement of the palace every day, but also to discuss the patrol route with Lu Wenyuan and other former ministers, and the accommodation along the way. Zhu Shiji was physically and mentally exhausted, so he kicked the boots on his feet at this time, and also lay down on the couch, and pulled Zhu Shiyang's brocade quilt over his body, humming comfortably.

Zhu Shiyang had never seen him like this, he wanted to laugh but couldn't, so he kicked him and said, "I got up and washed it, and I stained my quilt." ”

Zhu Shiji hugged Zhu Shiyang's feet, twisted his body and played tricks, grinding for a while, and he was about to fall asleep, but he heard Zhu Shiyang complain angrily: "I left the palace today and went to the house that was rewarded to Lu Wenyuan a few days ago, but guess what? The rebel hasn't moved in yet, so I'm really going to be angry!"

Zhu Shiji closed his eyes and listened to the general situation, and said with a confused smile: "Xu is Lord Lu is too busy to move over yet." ”

Zhu Shiyang snorted disappreciatively and said: "He's busy, it's been more than a month since this house was rewarded to him, and the affairs of my Weifu patrol are almost ready, is it more difficult for him to move than for me to go on patrol?" After a pause, he became more and more indignant and said, "I think he just doesn't want to move." ”

Zhu Shiji laughed lazily twice, and was too tired to answer. Zhu Shiyang talked to himself for a long time, but suddenly thought that Zhu Shiji seemed to have said that Lu Wenyuan and Fu Qian were a pair before, and then he sighed in his heart, and then the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, and he hurriedly kicked Zhu Shiji and said: "Do you think Lu Wenyuan and Fu Qian really have anything?" Lu Wenyuan said that he had no money to buy a mansion in Beijing, but in fact, he was looking for an excuse to live with Fu Qian. ”

Zhu Shiji held his eyelids and smiled bitterly: "Didn't my brother go to see it quietly last time, the two of them did sleep in separate rooms." Besides, even if they really have something, what can they do? Both of them are important ministers of the society, and they have not delayed political affairs because of this, this is just a private matter of others, and the imperial brother is inevitably too lenient. ”

Zhu Shiyang also felt reasonable when he heard it, but after thinking about it carefully, he still didn't feel very comfortable in his heart, so he still argued forcefully: "Why is it a private matter? Lu Wenyuan has a bad relationship with Fu Qian, can he leave the mansion of my imperial gift aside? This is a disobedience to the decree and a great disrespect......

Zhu Shiyang was chattering and complaining on the side, Zhu Shiji listened for a long time, and gradually fell asleep, and occasionally heard a sentence in the haze, "Strange, the more I look at Fu Qian, the more unpleasant it becomes", he laughed in a daze, thinking to himself, Brother Huang, Brother Huang, when will you understand your mind.

The next day, it was the day of the previous dynasty, and Zhu Shiyang left Lu Wenyuan behind after the court and asked him why he didn't move into the imperial mansion. Lu Wenyuan said: "The minister has the emperor's grace, and the crime deserves death, and after going back this time, I must urge my family to speed up the cleaning up and move into the mansion as much as possible." ”

Zhu Shiyang saw that he was respectful and didn't quibble, so he wasn't so angry. When he got up, he turned to talk about the affairs of the previous dynasty.

The government affairs of the previous dynasty were complicated, but the real major events were actually just a few, the two chatted and chatted, Zhu Shiyang suddenly found that Lu Wenyuan was a little absent-minded, and his eyes always glanced in the direction of the entrance of the main hall.

Zhu Shiyang thought that he was in a hurry to return to the cabinet on business, so he accompanied him to the door of the main hall, but as soon as he crossed the threshold, someone knelt down beside him.

Zhu Shiyang didn't expect that there was a person hiding outside the door, and he was startled. When I looked closely, I saw that this person was wearing a first-class official uniform and had a handsome face, but it was not who Fu Qian was. Zhu Shiyang was angry when he saw Fu Qian now, and immediately lowered his face and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Fu Qian's heart was beating wildly when he knelt on the ground, he didn't expect the emperor to come out at this time. It turned out that the emperor usually went to the court, usually returned to the palace directly from the back door, but today he went to the front gate unusually. Fu Qian thought that he was secretly staying outside the main gate, as long as the eunuchs and guards didn't say anything, they wouldn't be discovered, but who knew that he was hitting the muzzle of the gun, so he had to lower his head and answer honestly: "Back to the emperor, the minister is here to wait for Lord Lu." ”

Zhu Shiyang frowned and said unhappily: "What are you waiting for him to do?"

Fu Qian said: "Wait for Lord Lu to go back to the cabinet on business." ”

Zhu Shiyang's mind was lively, and he immediately realized that Lu Wenyuan was absent-minded, probably not because he was in a hurry to return to the cabinet, but because he knew that Fu Qianqian was waiting for him outside the door, for fear of being discovered by himself.

Zhu Shiyang looked back at Lu Wenyuan, and saw that he was really a little panicked, which confirmed his conjecture even more. Zhu Shiyang sneered secretly, thinking that the two of you were sticky to me, and I couldn't help but express it, so he said with a more gloomy face: "Master Fu doesn't have long legs and feet, I have to wait for Lu Wenyuan to come along." Do you want Lu Wenyuan to carry you back?"

Fu Qian was so frightened that he waved his hand again and again and said "no". Lu Wenyuan was anxious to speak for him, but was interrupted by Zhu Shiyang: "As the old saying goes, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and the friendship between villains is sweet." As important ministers of the imperial court and the heads of a hundred officials, the two of you are sticky and confused in front of everyone all day long, what kind of system have you become? At best, it is said that it is misconduct, and at worst, it is suspected of forming a party for personal gain!"

This is said more seriously, forming a party for personal gain is a taboo in the government and government, and no one dares to mention it at will. Now that these words came out of the emperor's mouth, it was tantamount to a thunderbolt out of thin air, which frightened Lu Wenyuan and Fu to kowtow lurkingly, and shouted "Don't dare".

Zhu Shiyang was relieved, snorted coldly, and went back to the hall with his hands in his hands.

Fu Qian and Lu Wenyuan were apprehensive. Afterwards, the two discussed it privately, thinking that it was better to be cautious, and since then they have deliberately distanced themselves on the surface, and only reluctantly say hello when they have to. When the other ministers of the DPRK and China saw them like this, they all kept speculating, and Zhao Yongning didn't know the truth, thinking that there was a rift between them, and they were busy with mud all day long. Only Zhu Shiyang knew it, and he was secretly refreshed all day long.
