On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the carriage of King Pei's Mansion went smoothly on the road under the escort of Prince Pei, Zhu Wei, Zhu Ji and Zhu Zong. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The fief of King Son Yat-sen and the fief of King Pei were separated by Hanoi County.

Nangong Zhao's hometown.

Zhu Yue only thought that the carriage could pass by early, and he must not meet Nangong Zhao in Hanoi County.

Mrs. Guo, who has been grounded, finally had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief, she asked Zhu Bi to sit in the same carriage with her, Mrs. Ding and Zhu Xuan sat in one, the two carriages were one in front of the other, and in the middle were the old lady Du and the fifth princess. Behind are a few elderly ladies squeezed into a cart, and the last two carriages are full of maidservants, as well as gifts picked by the old lady and a change of clothes for the masters.

In front of each carriage, in addition to the coachman, there was also a servant girl.

The carriage procession drove mightily towards the fiefdom of King Zhongshan.

They arrived at the Zhongshan Mansion before dark, passing through Hanoi County without resting, and when they first came to this foreign land full of red maples, everyone could not help but be attracted by this scenery.

The old lady said: "The wedding is tomorrow night, and we will take a break to go out during the day tomorrow." ”

Aunt Rong smiled and said, "If the old lady is interested, we can all get wet." ”

As he was talking, Zhu Fu, the king of Zhongshan, went out with his wife to greet him, and later followed Zhu Mi, who was about to become a groom.

Zhu Fu cooperated with Prince Pei and unloaded the cages on the carriage one by one, and a group of people and cages blocked in front of the palace of King Zhongshan, and they couldn't communicate inside and outside.

There were more and more people standing outside watching.

Everyone was very interested in Prince Pei's two beautiful girls.

I saw these two girls wearing new skirts, one with a refined temperament like an empty valley orchid, the other like a peony at first glance, and then like a blooming red chrysanthemum. The hair ornaments on their heads have never been seen by everyone, and then look at the ones on their wrists, which are the best jade bracelets in Shuitou.

The subordinates of Zhongshan Wangfu compared the group of servants and servants around Pei Wangye, and the clothes and materials were not under them, so everyone couldn't help but be cautious about Pei Wangfu.

Originally, I thought that the reason why Concubine Du and Prince Pei did not come might be the loneliness of King Pei's family, but I didn't expect to see Prince Pei for the first time, which shattered the rumors of decay among the people.

Judging by the way they dress, they came from the bustling area of Kyoto!

Because the old lady Du was invited to be the main witness, even if she was lonely, the subordinates of the Zhongshan Mansion did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

The Zhongshan Wangfu is well governed, the people are serious and meticulous, the rules in the house are worse than the Pei Wangfu, the old lady came in the past two days, and found that these people have been accustomed to the rules of acting, even if the Zhongshan Wang Lady is idle for a month, the things in the house are still doing as usual.

Mrs. Zhongshan Wang has a gentle personality and doesn't look like a powerful character, but she is very observant of her words, and the people in the palace support her, and there are very few people behind her who are not convinced.

She is also from the Guo family, a big clan in Hexi.

Although she is not really the same clan as Mrs. Guo, because her father had a relationship with Mrs. Guo's grandfather, that is, the father of the Empress Dowager Guo, and joined her own branch under the Guo family, she regarded Mrs. Guo as her aunt.

Empress Dowager Guo is a cousin and grandmother.

Mrs. Zhongshan Wang prepared a delicious wine and food for everyone, Mrs. Du ate a few mouthfuls of food, because of long-distance fatigue can not eat, want to drink a light soup, Guo Shi smiled: "The old lady has been running all the way, now there is no appetite, the granddaughter-in-law specially prepared papaya stewed millet porridge, more complicated than the soup technique, the old lady should taste first." ”

When Mrs. Guo wanted a towel to wipe her hands, before Mrs. Guo could speak, Guo smiled and said, "Someone come and bring a warm towel to Aunt Tang." ”

The old lady was quite satisfied with her clever reaction.

Mrs. Guo was also overjoyed.

This little Guo is simply divine, and he has figured out people's minds thoroughly.

"The room was cleaned up a month ago, the futon is also brand new, and the old lady's favorite Kyoto spots, and I have sent a lot of people to prepare, just waiting for you to come. I've finally got you covered. Guo smiled.

Mrs. Guo asked, "Can the Jiang family's dowry be sent?" ”

Everyone has heard that the Jiang family wants to give a dowry of one hundred and eight taels to Miss Jiang Quan, and the level is about the same as that of the county lord, but I don't know if it's true.

The fifth princess and Mrs. Ding were also extremely curious.

Zhu Bi was even more curious.

Since the Jiang family was in trouble, Miss Jiang Quan didn't come to see her often, and there was only one Li Huigu by her side who could talk, and Li Huigu was not from a famous family, and she had a lot of contact with Li Huigu, and Zhu Bi was disgusted with the price.

So I gradually became a little estranged from Li Huigu.

Guo Shi, the wife of Zhongshan Wang, said with a smile: "They are all placed in the back cover room, a full seventy-two loads." It has one hundred and eight sets of dowry porcelain. It's all good, but not as much as it seems. ”

Mrs. Guo seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Miss Jiang Quan's dowry has shrunk by a small half, and her Changle marriage in the future will not be compared in the dowry.

Mrs. Guo smiled, "Didn't you say one hundred and eight quintals?" Could it be that I heard it wrong, it's one hundred and eight sets of porcelain? ”

Guo said: "Aunt Tang heard me right. Originally, I planned to do so much, but you think that now that Taiwei is being stared at by the emperor's uncle, it is too late to avoid the wind, how dare you make so many dowries. ”

"What a good excuse." Zhu Bile was happy, "If you can't make it up, you can't make it up, it is estimated that these are the Jiang family's background." ”

Guo smiled silently.

Several handmaidens walked in with the beaming Zhu Mi in their arms.

When he saw his grandmother, he hurriedly greeted him, straightened his clothes, and respectfully bowed: "Grandma, I can look forward to you." Mi'er is waiting for you. I haven't seen each other for two months, and my grandmother is getting younger and younger. ”

Although Zhu Mi is not often accompanied by her, she is also one of the dearest grandchildren of Old Concubine Du. Compared with Zhu Fu, who was young and had to attack the lord of the house, Zhu Mi was much more lively.

This is also because he has a good big brother.

Although the King of Zhongshan has no support from the elders, Prince Pei often comes to take care of and give guidance, so the life of the Zhongshan Palace.

The old lady smiled: "It's not my old bone that Mi'er is waiting for, it's your bride." ”

Hearing the old lady's joke, everyone laughed.

Aunt Rong said: "Mi'er's mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter now, just like the name Mi'er is stained with honey." Did you know that the old lady brought a rare treasure over? ”

"What baby?" Zhu Mi's eyes lit up.

Aunt Rong smiled: "It's not for you, it's for your daughter-in-law." ”

Zhu Mi thought for a while and said, "Then I want to see it too." ”

The old lady asked Shi Xi to take the prepared box and give it to Zhu Mi, and before the old lady said to open it, Zhu Mi couldn't wait to open the lid of the rosewood, which was the bracelet passed by the old lady Du to her daughter-in-law.

With this, it means that the old lady affirms the new daughter-in-law who is getting started.

Mrs. Zhongshan Wang had this, but because of its significance, she carefully put it away.

Zhu Mi also knew the weight of this bracelet, the bracelet made of bloodstone was red and transparent, like a gorgeous red glow, Zhu Mi asked people to put it away carefully.

The old lady asked, "Who did Mi'er call to accompany her to pick up her relatives?" What time do you leave tomorrow morning? How many people followed? ”

"Let Cousin Wei go with my uncle."

Zhu Mi's uncle is Guo's elder brother Guo De, who later succeeded to the Pingyuan princess who married and Zhen Huang, the nephew of the Empress Dowager Wenzhao Zhen, and was named the Marquis of Pingyuan, and is now in charge of the Su Guard Forbidden Army, working with Nangong Shi in one place.

As she was talking, the nurse led the young master who had just woken up to say goodbye.

When the old lady saw Mengmeng's great-grandson, her heart melted and she hugged her to her lap, Guo was worried that the child would crush the old lady's knee, so she asked Brother Qi to come down.

The old lady shook her hand and said with a smile: "Brother Qi is really leather, he is six years old this year, right?" Can you read? ”

The old lady originally asked Guo's question, but she never imagined that Brother Qi was not afraid of life, so she answered her question slowly: "Great-grandmother, I will be seven years old after my birthday, and I will recite the Book of Poetry." The old gentleman teaches well, and Brother Qi likes the old gentleman. ”

The milky words made everyone laugh, Aunt Rong had already asked someone to bring the longevity gold lock, as well as the clothes of the four seasons, tiger head hats, windmills, clay figures, leather balls and other things, a whole box of everything.

Guo's eyebrows and eyes narrowed into a line, and he asked Brother Qi to thank his grandmother for his love.

Brother Qi was very well-behaved, stood up in a decent manner, and then knelt down respectfully like a little adult to thank him, the old lady liked it very much, took Brother Qi into her arms, and said to Brother Qi's mother: "It's hard for you to teach Brother Qi so well." ”

Guo Shi was also very proud, and said with a smile: "Brother Qi is loved by the old lady, and it is also Brother Qi's blessing." ”

"Brother Qi can enter the school?" Aunt Rong asked.

It's rare for Brother Qi to be so sensible, and it's a world of difference from her Wei'er, so Aunt Rong wants to inquire more about Guo's parenting methods.

Guo said with a smile: "Not yet, but I invited a famous Confucian in this county to teach literacy." Wei'er is about the same age as Brother Qi. Which gentleman did he invite? ”

"It's still Mr. Cai from the palace." Aunt Rong said, "I didn't go to school either." But your Qi'er is much more sensible than my Wei'er. ”

Guo Shi said humbly: "The last time I saw Wei'er, I felt that Wei'er was very delicate and aura, and she spoke very politely, and the fifth princess was modest." ”

Guo Shi said, seeing that Zhu Bi was a little uncomfortable, as if he didn't like to listen to the nagging of the elders, and they were bored when they sit, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Changle, you and Yi'an should go to the bath first." The hot bath water is ready, and you go back to your room after bathing. ”

Zhu Bi couldn't ask for it, and looked at her mother, Mrs. Guo.

Mrs. Guo said, "Go ahead." ”

Zhu Bi breathed a sigh of relief and left happily.

Zhu Yue also walked out.

It was her first time to visit the Zhongshan Palace, and she felt that the land here was more flat and open than Kyoto, and there were few rivers along the way.

The subordinates of the Zhongshan Palace's palace were dressed in new clothes, but the colors were very plain, and an elderly maidservant with some insight smiled: "Two girls, please come with me." ”

Zhu Yue recognized this servant, she was the companion of Mrs. Zhongshan Wang, and she was a little thin in front of her master.

Zhu Yue said: "You have to come to the bath one by one, just let my sixth sister go to the bath first, I will walk around here, and it will not be too late for you to call me when you are ready." ”

The maidservant smiled, "Yes." Then the master of Changle Pavilion should go to the bath room with the maidservant first. ”

Zhu Bi didn't pay attention to Zhu Xuan, it was natural for her to wash first, and it was difficult to wait for the concubine to finish washing before it was her turn.

When the maids of the Zhongshan Wang family saw Zhu Yue under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, they couldn't help but take a look, and the true and kind Yi'an who was held up to heaven by the fairy-like Mingkang was her.

The maidservants who have never walked out of the fiefdom all year round are paying attention to Zhu Yue at the moment.

I admired Mingkang's vision in my heart, this Zhu Yue was really as Mingkang said, she was the most beautiful girl they had ever seen.

Her sister-in-law stood with her, and she was obviously compared.

Aunt Rong's maid came with Li Wei, and the maid holding Li Wei was a nurse.

When the nurse saw Zhu Yue, she stepped forward first and said, "Seventh girl, can you see Aunt Rong?" As soon as the young master woke up, he wanted to see his mother. ”

Zhu Yue turned his head and pointed in the direction of the main hall: "It's all there." Wei'er has company. Aunt Qi's child Brother Qi is smart and well-behaved, and the two of them can play together. ”

Li Wei was only six or seven years old, so he naturally didn't understand the words of adults, but when he heard that he had a companion, he was overjoyed and said, "Aunt Seven, are you talking about girls or boys?" Is it pretty? Is it good-looking? I only like the pretty, the ugly don't. ”

Zhu Yu couldn't help laughing, scratched his little nose, and said, "I'm a little man like you." You can throw pots with him. ”

Hearing that it was a man, not a girl, Li Wei rolled his big eyes and pouted, "I don't want to play with him." ”

The nurse smiled helplessly: "The monk is simply a mold. ”

The nurse then said to Zhu Yue: "I'll take the young master over first." ”

"Hmm." Zhu Yue nodded.

When she turned around, she found that many maids in the Zhongshan Mansion were looking at her, probably because she hadn't seen her, so take a look at it.

Zhu Bi's bath was very slow, and instead of waiting here, it was better to find an elegant place to sit first.

Zhu Xuan unconsciously walked to the door of another courtyard, under the red maple tree, a maid was sitting there with her back to her, crying secretly.

Zhu Yue walked over curiously, stood behind her and poked her head to look, only to see that the maid was not only sobbing silently, but also sewing cashmere socks with stitches and threads.

Zhu Yue walked up to the servant: "What are you crying for?" ”

A fairy with a national color and fragrance came out, and the maid was stunned, and the tears were still hanging on her face, and when she reacted, she hurriedly wiped away her tears and said, "The slave and maid are not." ”

"Is it the wrong stitch on the sock? But don't cry, for whoever you sewed the socks, I'll go and tell the man to forgive you. ”

The handmaid was nervous with her socks in her hands.

I don't know what the girl in front of her is, but she knows that the grandmother who is looking for the second son is coming over today, and it must be the girl from the family of King Pei in Kyoto.

The maid couldn't care about being sad anymore, and said busily: "The girl doesn't have to worry about the slave, the slave is just, but I feel reluctant." ”

As for what she was reluctant to do, she didn't say anything, her bewildered look was distressing. (To be continued.) )
