(Today's update)

Songyan was upset by the affairs of the maids, and he couldn't take care of the affairs of Qixia Courtyard for a while, and when Shao Ding came back, he saw that he didn't show any affection, so he covered his ears and put this aside in advance.

Shao Ding saw that Songyan only brought two little maids, so he asked, and Songyan replied, "The maids can't follow them into the palace, they can only wait in the carriage, and it's enough to bring only the little maids." ”

Shao Ding didn't ask much, so he went out with Songyan to Longchi.

Longchi Palace City is the place where the Ninety-five Dynasty of Da Chu lived, and Songyan only followed Yan Furong to participate in the hairpin banquet in the past, and saw the majesty of the city wall outside the palace. Thinking that he was going to this city now and meeting the most noble woman in Da Chu, Songyan was both excited and nervous. The big maids are in the future today, the two little maids are sitting in another carriage, and she is sitting alone in Mrs. Hou's carriage, and she can't help but look left and right through the curtain to distract herself.

The carriage has arrived at the palace city, along the official road around the palace wall, passing by a magnificent palace gate called Huijiamen, there are many people gathered together, there seem to be some stalls, the flow of people is like weaving, very lively. The guards of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion opened the way at the front, but the queue was still walking slowly. Songyan looked carefully in the carriage, still not knowing what these people were doing outside the palace gate. The empty area near Longchi has always been a place of martial law, how can there still be traders here? She was curious and unbearable, and after thinking about it, she couldn't help but whisper to the woman who followed the car outside the car window, "You invite Master Hou to come over." ”

The woman hurriedly agreed, and after a while, Shao Ding called the horse over, bent down slightly and lifted the curtain, and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?" ”

I saw that Song Yan was nervous and excited, his cheeks were red, his eyes were shining, he was looking at him, and as if he was afraid that others would hear his question, he leaned close to Shao Ding and whispered, "Master Hou, what are these people doing?" ”

Shao Ding hadn't come back to his senses, he looked up at the surroundings when he heard the words, and then suddenly reacted and said to her, "His Majesty of the two dynasties likes to furnish treasures, and the treasures and furniture in the palace are piled up, so it is decided to open the market every Friday in Huijiamen, and some unwanted objects in the palace are sold to the people here. ”

Songyan said, "No wonder there are so many people here, I'm afraid that many wealthy families like to buy some palace objects here, and there are many folk craftsmen who want to sell a work here to the palace." ”

Shao Ding nodded, "Rich and noble families are proud to own imperial things, and folk craftsmen also hope to make a name for themselves through this. ”

Seeing that Songyan was curious, he couldn't help but say more than usual, and learned Songyan to whisper, "...... His majesty sometimes asks the attendants around him to sell the seals he carves, so that he knows how much his work can be valued. ”

As he expected, Songyan listened to this secret, and his expression was even more excited, and he said like a cannon, "Really? Who bought His Majesty's seal? Does this man know? How much did it sell? ”

Shao Ding's eyes showed a gentle smile, and he deliberately stretched out a finger mysteriously. Song Yan laboriously weighed it in his heart for a moment, and said tentatively, "One hundred taels of silver? ”

Shao Ding was about to shake his head, but Songyan quickly changed his words regretfully and said, "Gold, one hundred taels of gold!" ”

After she finished speaking, she looked at Shao Ding expectantly. Seeing her cuteness, Shao Ding couldn't help but reach out and touch Song Yan's hair, shook his head and said, "It's ten taels of silver." ”

Song Yan couldn't help but slump his shoulders in disappointment, thought for a while and said, "Although ten taels of silver is a lot on weekdays, it's just that this is a seal made by His Majesty himself, how can it only be worth so little silver?" Didn't the bidder pick up a big bargain? ”

Shao Ding said, "Exactly. ”

The two of them said some interesting things, and the carriage passed through the Huijia Gate, and went to the Tongming Gate where the prince had entered and exited. Song Yan lowered the curtain unfinished, Shao Ding waited for the curtain to fall, straightened up without thinking, and turned around to look at Huijiamen on the horse. When the Northern Army was eating bran vegetables in northern Xinjiang, trading was so prevalent in Beijing that everyone spent a lot of money. Ten taels of silver, even his wife Shao Ding felt that it was not a small amount, but she didn't know that Huijiamen would ask for a hundred taels of silver at every turn. The person who bought the seal of His Majesty with ten taels of silver, and later sent a hundred taels of gold to the palace, and the emperor, who was originally a little angry, summoned him with curiosity.

Shao Ding sighed and put these things in the depths of his heart.

When the carriage arrived at the Tongming Gate, it was already very quiet, the coachman drove the carriage to line up in front of the palace gate for a short time, Yu Linwei, who guarded the palace gate, saw Shao Ding riding on a horse, a guard captain trotted over, saluted Shao Ding, and laughed loudly, "Fifth brother! Are you going to the palace today? ”

Shao Ding got off the horse, accepted his salute calmly, and said, "The Queen Mother summoned her son to participate in the palace banquet, and I will also come to join in the fun." ”

He said to Songyan in the carriage, "Madam, this is Lu Zhongqiu, the second son of Zhongliang Bo Lu Rugong, I have been in Yulinwei for some days and have taken him for a few days. ”

Lu Zhongqiu was already very surprised when he heard that it was Shao Ding's wife in the carriage, and when he saw Shao Ding's gentleness and pettiness, he was even more shocked, and said in a loud voice, "My good girl, I can see the fifth brother so considerate again in my lifetime." Jiang Pingdong is really a big loss if he is lazy and doesn't come to the value today, and when I go back to sue them, I will definitely regret killing them. ”

Shao Ding glanced at him, Lu Zhongqiu hurriedly controlled his nonsense mouth, and saluted the carriage in a proper manner, Songyan felt that this loyal and good uncle was really interesting, and hurriedly asked him to get up with a smile in the car. Lu Zhongqiu was a little stupid when he heard her voice, if he would have said something frivolous on weekdays, he just glanced at Shao Ding who was standing upright on the side, it was like a basin of cold water poured on his head, and he couldn't think of anything, and asked Shao Ding honestly, "Fifth brother, do you want to cut in line?" ”

Shao Ding looked at him hatefully, and said angrily, "No need." ”

Lu Zhongqiu responded unexpectedly, and went back to stand at his post again, and when it was his turn to inspect the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, he hurriedly pushed away Yu Linwei, who was in charge of inspecting the carriage, and said, "Go and go, this is also what you can see?" ”

Shao Ding said warningly, "Mid-autumn." ”

Lu Zhongqiu was shocked, he had never been so in line with the inspection system in his life, and he stepped forward and inspected the outside of the carriage, and then said outside the carriage, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, I am offended." ”

Songyan listened to their conversation and said, "It's okay. ”

Lu Zhongqiu thought to himself that after going back, he saw a few fox friends and dog friends, and he must brag about the true face of the beautiful wife of the fifth brother who was famous in the capital today. Thinking like this, he realized that he was shouldering the curiosity of several people, and his hands trembled slightly. He slowly lifted the curtain and looked into the car.

The decorations in the carriage of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion were simple in all the carriages of the Houfu that Lu Zhongqiu had ever seen, but he didn't notice these for a while, and only saw Song Yan sitting on the seat of the carriage smiling at him, and he froze in place.

The Yulin guards didn't move when they saw the captain of the guard lifting the curtain, and when they saw Shao Ding standing aside like a killing god, they were so anxious that they almost cried, and whispered, "Captain of the guard, captain of the guard, Zhongqiu, Lu Zhongqiu, call you, don't die!" ”

Lu Zhongqiu ignored it, and he didn't know how he lowered the curtain after saluting, signaling that it was passable. When Shao Ding looked unhappy and took people away, Yu Linwei hurriedly surrounded him and asked Lu Zhongqiu in a gossipy manner, "It seems that you are indeed a beauty, look at your unpromising appearance." ”

"What does my sister-in-law look like?"

Lu Zhongqiu said blankly, "I can't remember the specific appearance of her facial features, and I didn't pay attention to her clothes, so I only had one thought in my heart when I saw her." ”

The Yulin guards were even more curious, and hurriedly asked, "What thoughts?" ”

Lu Zhongqiu sighed and said, "It's really 120,000 good-looking, I just want to let myself disappear on the spot, so as not to pollute her eyes." ”

Yu Linwei was stunned for a moment, and laughed coincidentally, "You are too exaggerated!" How can there be such a good-looking person in the world? ”

"You can't see that you kid is so good at talking on weekdays? Next time you go to the Clouds and Falling Moon Tower, you have to teach me well! ”

Lu Zhongqiu was not angry when he heard them laughing, he shook his head and said, "A group of frogs at the bottom of the well are really unspeakable summer insects. ”
