If the previous cousins were attracted by the title of Yuan Zheng's second-grade feudal official, then after coming to Yuan Mansion, such an attraction has been sublimated into temptation.

In their more than ten years of life, they have never seen such elegance, pavilions, flowers, trees, and decorative utensils in the Yuan Mansion...... All show the otherworldly taste of the masters, they are so tender and elegant...... Belch...... In fact, they are definitely laymen, to put it bluntly, the Yuan Mansion is really rich, and the cousin is really generous, they really want to get a piece of the pie in this rich field.

After all, they are all a group of girls who have just reached the palace, and their eager eyes can no longer be hidden after entering the inner courtyard, and their yearning for glory and wealth is completely exposed to the eyes of others.

The subordinates of the Yuan Mansion are all human spirits, what else do they not understand when they see such a battle, their lord's peach blossom luck is rolling in, and the mansion is going to add people to import.

The cousins' families are not wealthy, and they are concubines, and they can't take their turn at home with good clothes and jewelry.

When they came to Yuanfu today, they were eye-opening, it turned out that they were so jealous of their sisters at home that they couldn't take the clothes and jewelry they owned, and they couldn't even compare to the clothes and jewelry of the ordinary maids in Yuanfu.

Especially the few big girls around my cousin-in-law, the precious clothes of a little water, just the bracelet on my hand, are so green that they seem to be able to drip water, and the small purse they are going to use for rewards is not embarrassed to take it out at all, just kidding, those few copper coins and broken silver are rewarded without losing their faces.

finally saw the legendary noble "old woman" cousin-in-law Gu Shi, the second lady of Yuan, and they were even more envious and jealous to the point that their hearts bleed. Don't they all say that marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, and taking a concubine? You are a wife who grows like that, and you don't let people live! Not to mention her outfit, she is showing off her hatred!

Of course, Gu Chao is also uncomfortable, these few people in front of him are open fire who came to rob her husband with her, although they are not some stunning beauties, but they are so tender that they seem to be able to pinch out water, if she hadn't been prepared by the news before, she would definitely have a seizure on the spot.

However, as Mama Jin said, at this time, the old lady has not yet made her words clear, why should she take the initiative to jump out and let the family seize the handle, isn't it cheapening them for nothing!

After a salute, Gu Chao showed a rare demeanor as a housewife, and said with a just right smile on his face: "It's rare for cousins to come to the mansion as guests, and it coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival, so you must have a good time in Hangzhou Mansion." ”

Several cousins stood up and pretended to express their gratitude.

The old lady who thought that Gu Chao was going to make a big fuss again was not good to speak when she saw her dealing with her like this, her husband's concubine was never good news for his wife, and it was rare for a daughter-in-law to be sensible once, she couldn't slap her in the face with such a thing as soon as they met, so she still waited for her son to come back.

The host was warm and polite, and there was laughter and laughter in the main hall, which was completely like a happy guest and host, only Doudou, who was leaning on his grandmother's arms, muttered to himself, these people are really boring, obviously they don't like each other, and they deliberately laugh so loudly, it's really ugly and ugly......

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, the Yuan Mansion was particularly lively, but under the excitement was an undercurrent, from the old lady who was over half a hundred years old to the second girl who was seven years old, a group of women were worried about the matter of Yuan Zheng taking concubines, and he himself knew nothing about this matter.

Yuan Zheng was a good and conscientious official, and every few months he had to take turns to inspect the state capitals of Zhejiang, and at this time he had just finished his affairs in Ningbo Mansion and got into the carriage on the return journey.

As the old saying goes, Ruixue is a good year, and the blizzard at the beginning of the year when the officials in the entire Jiangnan were busy really heralded a good harvest this year, and the autumn harvest in the state capitals went very smoothly, Yuan Zheng stroked his forehead, and finally could breathe a sigh of relief.

Today's majesty xià likes to conquer the most, the big anniversary has been good in recent years, and the treasury is becoming more and more full. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just taken over the household department, if there is too much of a move, it will definitely be disliked by His Majesty, however, if it is just a conformist and has no achievements, it will also make the important ministers look down on him, and His Majesty will inevitably feel that the prince has no courage and is difficult to become a great weapon.

The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, Jiangnan is the largest granary and source of taxes in the Great Zhou, and it is necessary to do a good job of the solid backing of His Royal Highness the Prince.

The road has always been boring, he crooked on the couch and fell asleep after a while, never expecting that the house would greet him with such a "feast".

Yuan Zheng's carriage traveled all the way, and when it arrived at the east gate of Hangzhou, it was past the 14th of August, and the soldiers defending the city saw that it was the carriage of the political envoy who immediately reopened the city gate and let it go, and the group quickly returned to the house.

The time was too late and people were too tired to do it, the guards and entourage all went back to their rooms to rest, Qing'er Geng'er and the two little servants who stayed in the house hurriedly waited for the master to bathe, and Yuan Zheng washed off the dust and lay directly on the bed.

Seeing that he was extremely sleepy, the two little guys glanced at each other and retreated, and they didn't dare to mention half a word about a group of beauties coming to the house.

"Knock knock...... Knock knock knock ......"

Half an hour later, Qing'er, who was on night duty outside, was awakened by a sharp knock on the door.

"Which one of those who doesn't have long eyes eats the bear's heart and leopard gall and dares to disturb the master's sleep!" He muttered quietly and got up and tore open the door, "It's Bi...... Sister Bihe, why don't you sleep in the outer courtyard all night? A delicate face with an anxious face came into his eyes, and his drowsiness woke him up directly.

Bihe is the most useful big girl next to Mrs., and she appeared outside the master's bedroom so late, so Qing'er couldn't help but start thinking crankily, is it coming for the master again?

Where did Bihe know his thoughts, and said in a somewhat hasty tone: "Qing'er, wake up the master, Madame is sick." ”

Qing'er couldn't help but get anxious, his wife had never been at ease with the master, and there were no other concubines in the house, so Mrs. had never done such a thing as pretending to be sick in the middle of the night to pull people in the outer courtyard, it seemed that he was really sick this time, and he didn't have time to turn around and run towards the inner room.

After a cup of tea, Yuan Zheng, who was forcibly awakened from sleep by Qing'er, appeared in the main room of Chaoyun Temple with a trace of doubt.

I don't know when Bi He, who was behind him, disappeared, and the intoxicating sweet fragrance came to his face, Yuan Zheng didn't feel anything wrong at first, Gu Chao likes to mix incense, and her room has always been fragrant.

However, gradually he began to feel that something was wrong, his brain was hot, his lower abdomen was tight, and there was something wrong with this incense!

"Zong Zhi ......" A soft and sweet female voice sounded in his ears.
