The snow outside is gradually collecting, but the branches are still wrapped in snow like silver, and the eyes are blank. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"I heard that there are guests in the East Courtyard today, have you ever seen Miss Qin?"

Uncle Zhong casually flipped through a page of the book, and suddenly asked.

Qin Shuya put down the teacup and nodded lightly: "It's the second daughter of Old Man Su who married to the capital, and now the brother and sister-in-law of Lu Tang, the head of the household, just came out of Xiyuan, and just happened to see it, so I went over to say a few words to them." ”

"Lu Tang?" Uncle Zhong frowned, and his expression became a little solemn: "But that is the proud protégé of Yang Zheng, the imperial envoy of the Imperial Inspectorate?" ”

Qin Shuya was puzzled, so her chin should be, "He has indeed followed Yang Zheng to do things all these years, but what's wrong with it?" ”

Uncle Zhong shook his head and sighed lightly: "I just didn't expect that he would sit in the seat of the head of the household......"

He is not a stranger to Lu Tang, a few years ago, his son was down, and this name was in his mouth.

"Uncle Zhong knows him?" Hearing him sigh lightly, Qin Shuya asked with some confusion.

"I don't know each other, but I've heard Childe talk about it." Uncle Zhong looked at the holly potted plant outside the window, his eyes were far away, "It was a few years ago, when the old man had not passed away, and the son did not have the reputation he has today......

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of something, and his voice became heavier and heavier: "The son went to see, but is this Hubu Shangshu?" ”

"The greeting post that I just handed over did indeed write the name of the Tobe Shangshu......"

Qin Shuya has listened to Du Yuan's instructions in the past few years, taking care of the Golden Valley Garden for him, and has never taken half a step out of the capital, and she obviously doesn't know as much about Du Yuan as Uncle Zhong, and she doesn't know what the relationship between this Lu Shangshu and Du Yuan is.

"Shuya, look at your look is wrong, this Lu Shangshu will be bad for Gongzi?" She asked tentatively.

It's not bad for Childe, it's just that the two of them get along in the same room, and he is still a little worried.

He closed the book and stood up, "I'll look at these tomorrow, I'll go to Childe's side and take a look." ”

He was afraid that Childe would do something impulsive......

He hurriedly walked out of the palace gate, and he didn't even have time to put on his robe, which scared Qin Shuya's heart.

"Someone." She shouted out of the hall.

Soon a servant girl came in, "What do you want Miss Qin to order?" ”

"Ask Lian Jian to send the information of the household book to my room."

Lian Jian is the secret guard of the Du Mansion who is specifically responsible for collecting intelligence, and Du Yuan assigned him to Qin Shuya, firstly to help her gain a firm foothold in Jingu Garden, and secondly, to protect her safety, and has been following her for several years.

The maidservant whispered yes, turned around and wanted to come out, but heard Qin Shuya add behind her: "It's no matter how big or small. ”

…………

Jingu Garden occupies most of the mountain, there are dozens of palaces, all of them are built brilliantly and chicly, which makes people sigh at the same time, and have to praise its ghost axe carving.

Du Yuan took a large sedan chair with camphor wood and gold ornaments carried by four people, and went to a pavilion in Nanyuan with joy.

This pavilion is decorated like a restaurant in Beijing, but it is more magnificent than those restaurants.

This is the place where Du Yuan specially used to entertain guests, there are countless maids and maids in the building, serving wine and pouring tea, dancing and singing, chanting poems, and even accompanying wine, there are ......

When I came here, I went to the restaurant, the green building, the song and dance workshop, and the study...... Anything you can think of, there is everything in the building.

Du Yuan named it Xiaoyao Pavilion, and he was led by his attendants to the top floor from the unmanned corridor on the other side.

The wing room on the top floor is elegant, a few pots of holly potted plants are placed at the door, two cloisonne lotus plum bottles are placed on the table in the room, and a few half-open plum blossom branches are inserted in the plum bottle, but the branches are a little withered at the moment.

Du Yuan walked into the room, and saw the half-withered branches at a glance, and his face immediately darkened.

Seeing this, the little maid who followed Du Yuan felt a chill on his back, and asked the maids standing outside the room in a deep voice, "Who is responsible for cleaning the top floor today?" ”

He didn't even replace the branches in the room with new ones, don't you know that this is Childe's favorite thing?

Soon a thin little girl stood up from the crowd and said timidly, "Yes...... It's a slave. ”

She looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, she hadn't left her head yet, and her facial features were quite immature, presumably she had just mentioned that she was doing sweeping here.

The little girl couldn't bear to punish her, but thinking of the child's temper, he still relented and scolded: "You dare to be so negligent in doing such a trivial matter, and go to the housekeeper to get a fifteen boards, and you are not allowed to step into the Golden Valley Garden for half a step from now on." ”

The little maid's face turned pale, and she kowtowed to the little maid again and again, "Adults spare their lives, the maid is new to the city, she doesn't understand the rules, she offended the adult, it's the maid's ...... But the servant has long been homeless, and please don't drive the servant away, the servant will definitely reform in the future and serve the son well. ”

The appearance of crying is so pitiful, but the little girl understands that when the son personally disposes of it, it will not be as simple as driving her out of Jinguyuan, so she closed her eyes and said indifferently: "Jinguyuan doesn't need a careless girl like you." Come on, pull her down. ”

Immediately, a little servant came and escorted her out, her figure was out of sight, and her desperate cries could still be heard.

The little guy didn't have time to pay attention to these, so he personally went over and picked the branches in the lotus plum bottle, held them in his arms, stood in front of Du Yuan with his hands down, and said with a smile: "Son, forgive me, it's the little one who is not strict under the rule, so I will go to Miss Qin to receive the punishment." ”

Du Yuan looked at him coldly, and was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but the timid voice of the servant girl suddenly came from outside the door: "Gong...... Childe, Lu Shangshu has arrived. ”

The little servant was relieved, and hurriedly instructed the maidservant, "Why don't you invite someone soon?" ”

The servant girl retreated, and the little maid hurriedly hugged the pile of branches and told the servant girl waiting outside, "What are you doing, don't go and cook tea quickly!" ”

He didn't dare to look at Du Yuan again, until he saw Lu Tang, who was a servant girl with a navy blue robe, coming, that he retreated lightly.

Lu Tang was led into the hall by the maidservant, and the front was a screen embroidered with landscapes, and it was vaguely visible that there was a person sitting behind the screen.

The man was holding a tea cup in his hand, sitting cross-legged on the couch, his fingers lightly knocking a few times, and he was Du Yuan.

Lu Tang had already heard that this person had a strange temperament, which was not seen by ordinary people, and it was reasonable to be like today, but it was reasonable, and his face was not surprised, and he waved his hand at the screen, "Du Gongzi." ”

"Lu Shangshu." Du Yuan replied, and he could obviously hear a soft sneer from inside, "I don't know how Lu Shangshu, a busy man, came to my Xiaoyao Pavilion and saw me, a businessman covered in copper?" ”

Lu Tang knew that this person was not easy to get along with, but he didn't know that he would be so full of sarcasm as soon as he spoke!

His expression stiffened slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, straightened up, sat down on the chair of the Taishi in the hall, and said lightly: "You threw the bait out, didn't you just want to lure the official to take the bait?"
