When the Huang brothers saw that Du Juan was interested in Lan Guihui, they told her all kinds of rules and internal information, as well as wonderful and famous people in the competition over the years, including Zhan Shisha. When she participated in the Lan Gui Club, she won four first prizes in six items of qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, needlework, and cooking: qin, calligraphy, painting, and needlework.

The cuckoo listened with a smacking tongue.

She was not unconvinced, and truly admired.

Huang Wei said with a smile: "Brother Zigui doesn't know, the competition is divided into civil and military." Wen has piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and female red cooking; Martial arts are divided into archery and fist and foot kung fu, and anyone who gets one item has a colorful head. ”

The cuckoo asked with great interest, "What kind of lottery is this year?" ”

Huang Zheng said: "This year's Caitou is a dresser made by a Xiucai named Lin Chun in Guozijian. His woodcarving skills are excellent, and ordinary people can't ask for a single work. ”

The cuckoo was overjoyed when he heard it, and Dai Linchun was happy.

Unexpectedly, the joke that he became famous in the boudoir came true.

She smiled and said, "This person is so favored? ”

His eyes were eagerly staring at the two teenagers, hoping that they would say that Lin Chun was famous in Kyoto.

"What a favor! It's just a carpenter. ”

Du Juan and the others looked up, and a young man in Chinese clothes strode over, "The two younger brothers are so Yaxing, they came here to drink tea." Not too noisy? This brother is so beautiful! I can't recognize who it is. ”

He was originally going towards the Huang brothers, but his heavy gaze swept over the cuckoo, and he couldn't help but stare at it. Seeing that they were not sitting together, I guessed that they did not know each other, and they should have met while drinking tea.

Huang Wei and Huang Zheng both stood up, calling them "second brother", but their expressions were faint. He was not introduced to the cuckoo, which confirmed the young man's conjecture.

The cuckoo didn't move. He just looked at them curiously.

The young man was a little annoyed in his heart, and smiled at Du Juan: "Use the dressing box made by Lin Xiucai to make color heads." It just made him understand his identity: no matter how good his craft is, he is just a carpenter! There are some things that he should not think. ”

Huang Weiban said with a face: "Second brother be cautious! ”

The young man said lightly: "What did my brother say wrong? ”

If others heard this, they would be confused, but the cuckoo understood.

Her heart was furious, and in an instant, she turned around a thousand times.

Holding back her anger, she pretended to be ignorant and asked, "What's wrong with the carpenter?" It's the first time I've heard of a carpenter in the middle of Xiucai; The carpenter studying in Guozijian is even more unprecedented, is this still bad? Or did this surnamed Lin violate the law of the country? ”

The young man sneered: "No matter what, he is also a carpenter born in the mountains!" ”

The cuckoo was even more surprised, and put on a posture of dead argument and said: "Isn't Emperor Taizu of this dynasty still born in iron!" Beat the Dajing country with bare hands. This is the proudest thing for the royal family. It's not a shame that Lin Chun is a carpenter, right? ”

The young man stared at her with a sharp gaze, staring at her silently.

At this time, an entourage flashed out from behind him and shouted to the cuckoo: "Be bold, dare to be rude to Prince Shun!" ”

The cuckoo was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly got up and hugged his fists and said: "It turned out to be the prince of the world, no wonder he looked at it." It's all small people's clumsiness. Then he asked the attendant strangely, "Don't mess with this big brother, how can you ever be rude to the son?" Emperor Taizu was born in iron, and no one knows it better than the prince. There are still records in the history books, why can't they be mentioned? "She's going to fight to the end.

Huang Wei's face sank, and he said, "What does Cheng Shizi mean by this?" ”

Huang Zheng looked at the entourage coldly.

Qin Cheng, the prince of Prince Shun, waved his hand at the cuckoo and said, "Brother Tai doesn't have to be polite. ”

He glared at his entourage again. The attendant hurriedly bowed his head and stepped back.

Qin Cheng looked at the cuckoo again and asked, "May I ask what is the name of the brother?" ”

The cuckoo smiled: "Under the prince's rules." ”

This man is the son of her fifth uncle, Prince Shun.

With a turn of his mind, his eyes glanced at the pair of brothers surnamed Huang. also guessed their identities: it was her eighth uncle, Prince Yong's eldest son Qin Zhen and second son Qin Yan.

Well, the brothers and sisters of the family are all together!

She looked at the three of them with a smile. The gaze is very kind-

Brother, brother. Hello!

Qin Cheng looked at her and secretly wondered, thinking that such a good demeanor was rare, and he didn't panic when he heard his identity, so he didn't take him seriously at all. He stared at her coldly, but she looked at him with a smile in her clear eyes, and she saw that he was uncomfortable, and almost shattered his usual majestic image.

Qin Yan saw Qin Cheng staring at the cuckoo, afraid that he would embarrass her, so he hurriedly said, "The time has come, second brother, let's go." ”

Qin Zhen also nodded and said, "Exactly." If it's too late, the fourth uncle will probably be unhappy. ”

At the same time, he turned to clench his fist at Du Juan and said, "Brother Wang, please use tea slowly, I have something to do, and I have to take the first step." After saying hello to Qin Cheng, Qin Cheng also glanced deeply at the cuckoo when he left.

The cuckoo hurriedly returned the salute and watched their brother go out before sitting down.

Prince Shun, the fifth uncle!

Did you invite your niece to Beijing this time?

Also, Lin Chun......

She cupped her chin in deep thought.

After sitting for a while, she settled the bill and left the teahouse.

After going out, she quickly walked around the streets, ran all over the center of the capital for half a day, bought some things she needed, and finally found a small Ping'an Inn on Qingyang Street to live.

As soon as it got dark, she changed her clothes and went straight to Zhao Yushi's house.

In the study of the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Yushi faced the county lord of Jing'an who slipped into his study in a night suit, and his resolute cheeks were stricter than usual, "Dare to ask the county lord of Jing'an, what do you have to say when you enter this official mansion at night?" ”

Du Juan smiled and said, "Uncle Zhao-" Zhao Yushi's thick eyebrows twitched a few times-"I asked you for help." You tell outsiders not to come in, and I'll tell you the reason slowly. ”

Zhao Yushi first commanded in a loud voice: "Liu Er, tonight the master is going to make an excerpt." You are in front of you, and no one is allowed to come in and disturb you without summoning you. ”

"Yes, sir!"

The outsiders agreed to go away.

Only then did Zhao Yushi turn to the cuckoo, and said with a stiff face: "The county lord, please take a seat." Also, Weichen can't afford to be called the county lord's 'uncle'. ”

The cuckoo was not polite either, and sat down on the chair.

He smiled and pointed to the seat on the other side of Fang Ji and said to Zhao Yushi, who was helping her pour tea: "Uncle Zhao also sits." Uncle Zhao said that it would be wrong to be unaffordable. What kind of lord am I? It's just a baby without a father. My mother's mother's aunt, and your father's father's eldest brother are sisters and brothers, and my father's cousin's son is married to your eldest brother's son...... So we're also relatives. ”

Zhao Yushi didn't count the accounts she counted for a long time. I felt dizzy.

As soon as my brain was confused, the tea poured out.

The cuckoo shouted, "Be careful! Tea spilled! ”

Hurriedly took the teapot in his hand. Pour tea for both parties in person.

Zhao Yushi looked at her helplessly and said, "The county lord should talk about the reason first." ”

The cuckoo listened. put the teapot on the table, pouted, and said, "Does Uncle Zhao think I'm naughty and ran to the capital by myself?" It turns out that such a big event, the court still doesn't know about it! When I look back, I'm dead, and no one cares about the bones. It's chilling! ”

Zhao Yushi was stunned and hurriedly asked, "How do you say this?" ”

The cuckoo told her about her captivity in a huff.

The more Zhao Yushi listened, the more shocked he became, and his face became more and more serious.

After Du Juan finished speaking, he already had a plan in his heart, and immediately said: "Weichen will ask someone to prepare a sedan chair and send the county lord to Prince Yong's mansion." ”

The cuckoo hurriedly stopped. "Don't, don't!" What do you want? ”

Zhao Yushi comforted him stiffly: "Weichen sent the county lord to Prince Yong's mansion, and with Prince Yong's protection, the county lord will be safe and sound." Tomorrow, Prince Yong will naturally take the county lord into the palace to see the emperor, ask the emperor to investigate the matter thoroughly, and give the county lord an explanation. ”

The cuckoo waved his hand again and again, motioned for him to sit down, and said, "I'm not going anywhere." Uncle Zhao, I believe you came to you. Don't sell me. ”

Zhao Yushi was puzzled: "What does the county lord mean by this?" ”

The cuckoo snorted and said, "Since no one cares about this matter, I won't show up." I'm here tonight to ask my uncle to help me get a sign, and I want to participate in the Lan Gui Club. ”

Zhao Yushi shook his head and said sternly: "The county lord can't be willful!" The county lord is just out of danger. How can the people behind the scenes be resigned? I'm going to search for the county lord everywhere. How could the county lord participate in the Lan Gui Club alone? It's safer to go to Prince Yong's mansion or enter the palace. ”

Du Juan looked at him and smiled: "Lord Zhao, the county lord saw that you were trying Huang Yuan's case at that time, and you knew how to be flexible. Why are you so focused on the horns today? Why am I so willful? When I didn't recognize my ancestors and returned to my ancestors, I lived very freely; Since recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors. One bad thing after another. When there was no one to protect me, I was running around the mountains and living well; Since the prince of Xuanwu brought two hundred dragon guards to protect me. I have been assassinated and taken captive; No, as soon as they leave them, when the county lord is left alone, the county lord will be out of danger. Tell me, does the lord of this county listen to your exposure in front of people and let people continue to murder, or hide in the shadows to protect himself? ”

Zhao Yushi was speechless when he heard this.

The cuckoo chuckled, picked up the cup and drank tea, and picked up another snack to eat.

Zhao Yushi looked at her leisurely appearance, a little depressed, and said: "But Weichen knows the whereabouts of the county lord, if he doesn't tell the emperor......"

The cuckoo took another sip of tea before asking, "Uncle Zhao blames me for relying on you?" ”

Zhao Yushi shook his head hurriedly and said, "Weichen is just worried about the safety of the county lord. ”

The cuckoo sneered: "Safety? I'm going to listen to you. ”

Zhao Yushi's heart froze: County lord, even Prince Yong can't believe it!

He looked complicated and asked, "Why does the county lord want to participate in the Lan Gui Society?" ”

Du Juan winked at him and said with a smile: "I'm just asking Uncle Zhao for a favor, so that I can enter the arena at that time, and the other Uncle Zhao don't care, and I won't be here after that." In this way, there is no difficulty, and I don't want to implicate the Zhao family. ”

Zhao Yushi thought to himself, how could it be as easy as you said, could he still stay out of this matter if he got involved? Therefore, he asked with a bitter face: "What about the county lord after participating in the Lan Gui Meeting?" ”

The cuckoo replied naturally: "In the future, I will support a business and sell tea." Uncle, if it's convenient, help me keep an eye on the shops on the street......"

Zhao Yushi was stunned again, looking at the cuckoo's eyes was like looking at a monster.

The cuckoo was uncomfortable with this look, put the teacup down, and said, "What? Uncle thinks I shouldn't be in business? I don't want to. But I used to feed the whole family and not go hungry, but since I recognized my ancestors and returned to my ancestors, I have to feed hundreds of people, and I have to leave the courtesy......"

She crackled and said all the hardships and calculations of the day, "Uncle said, I don't have a father or mother, who do I count on if I don't make my own money?" ”

Zhao Yushi could no longer remain solemn, and his face was sluggish.

Suddenly, he felt choking in his throat and quickly lowered his eyes.

The cuckoo also stopped talking, concentrating on eating snacks and drinking tea, waiting for him to think about it.

There was silence in the study, except for the two lights that flickered slightly.
