After traveling for many days, Zong Zhengke had a bad appetite, so he only used some soup in the evening and planned to rest. After washing up for a while, just after changing into bedclothes, Xu came in and said: "There are guests from outside again, calling from Beijing, saying that they are the brothers and sisters of the Hou Shizi of Fenyang." When he heard that the girl was here, he sent someone to say goodbye. ”

Zong Zhengke put down the travelogue in his hand, instructed Muyu to take a coat and put it on, and then asked Xu to take the visitor outside the pearl curtain. Xu didn't expect Zong Zhengke to meet the visitor, so he only planned to say goodbye and directly seal the reward and send people back, but he didn't ask much when he saw this, and directly took orders.

The rosary quickly put down the pearl curtain, and then helped the girl to sit on the beauty couch. At this time, the Xu family also brought someone in, and the person didn't salute, but stood there stunned and said, "The old man was ordered by the noble concubine in Beijing to come to see the third girl of Zongzheng. ”

Originally, Zong Zhengke planned to meet people because of the name of the Marquis of Fenyang. The Marquis of Fenyang is the only brother of Concubine Xiao, and now the prince specially sent someone to ask for peace, she doesn't want to take the big one, and she has no qualifications to take the big one at all.

Unexpectedly, the person who came here actually signed up for the order of Concubine Xiao, and I am afraid that he is the confidant of the concubine. Zong Zhengke got up slowly, the rosary opened half of the pearl curtain, she looked intently, in the dim light, there was a gorgeously dressed but old woman standing there, her face was full of pride.

Zong Zheng bowed and said lightly: "I don't know what this noble man is called?" ”

The old woman suddenly took a few steps forward, and then hurriedly stopped, staring at Zong Zhengke in a daze, and replied for a long time: "You only call the old lady Li." ”

Lady Li's eyes were very strange, like sadness and joy, and like crying and complaining. But if Zong Zhengke had never practiced martial arts, and without extraordinary eyesight, she would never be able to distinguish clearly under such a night light.

Things are getting more and more weird, Zong Zhengke asked: "I don't know if Lady Li wants to see the little girl, what's the matter?" ”

Lady Li glanced around, and saw that Zong Zhengke had no intention of sending the servants and maids away in the room, but she was not reluctant, but said quietly: "The old man has seen the cousin of the third girl in the palace, Concubine Hui. I have also met with several other Zongzheng girls, but the three girls are the most suitable for the eyes of the elderly. ”

What kind of trouble is it to say good things now? Zong Zhengke smiled lightly: "It is a great honor for the little girl to be appreciated by the female officials. ”

Female official Li stared at Zong Zhengke intently, her gaze was almost greedy. She took a few more steps forward. Standing directly in front of Zong Zhengke over the pearl curtain, the drooping sleeves of her robe covered her slightly trembling hands.

"Third girl, in a few months, there will be an assessment of female officials in the palace. If you are interested, the old body can protect you from the concubine. Lady Li said eagerly. has the identity of a female official, which is absolutely beneficial and harmless to the marriage of the three girls, and even the entire Zongzheng family will have a light on its face because of this. ”

The original purpose was here, didn't this mean that she didn't want to go to Yunhang Mansion to join the competition for the title of princess of Qin? Zong Zhengke smiled slightly and said: "Thank you for the love of the female official and the noble concubine, but the little girl can't be the master of this matter, and she needs to be taught by the elders in the family." ”

"Third girl, at this time, Yunhang Xiaofu is like a tiger's den in Longtan, you can't go!" Looking at the appearance of Lady Li, it was almost like crying. But her strange behavior only made Zong Zhengke more and more vigilant.

"That's my grandfather's house. How did it become the Longtan Tiger's Den? Zong Zhengke's face was covered with frost, and he said coldly, "Even if the little girl respects you as a female official again, if you say such things again, the little girl will also send them off." ”

Lady Li was stunned for a moment, slowly lowered her eyes, took a deep breath and said, "In this way, you are bent on fighting for the title of the princess of the Qin Kingdom?" ”

Zong Zhengke was a little impatient, even if she had decided to temporarily befriend Concubine Xiao in the future, she didn't want to be criticized by Concubine Xiao, who was still a stranger.

looked at Lady Li indifferently. She said in a low voice: "Your Excellency, you are laughing, the little girl is only here to visit the old lady and her grandparents. Besides, there are so many proud daughters of the two Xiao Tian, and the little girl is surnamed Zongzheng. You can't get to the side of the knighthood anyway, you're worrying too much! ”

"You don't know, you don't know anything!" Female Officer Li was a little distracted and muttered to herself. She suddenly raised her eyes to look at Zong Zhengke, as if she had made up some kind of determination to cut the railway. "Now that the third girl has made up her mind, the old body won't say much, so I will leave!"

She turned around and walked out the door quickly. Zong Zhengke's eyebrows frowned slightly, feeling that this female official Li was really weird, and inexplicably threw such a big call, and ran away inexplicably.

I don't know what to say. The master and servant shook their heads, all tired, and each rested early.

The banquet in the main hall is still in full swing. After all, Yan Yuzhi was only ten years old, and he couldn't compare to an adult man, so he felt that he should be drunk if he drank it again, so he took the initiative to ask to go to the guest room to rest.

The bath water had already been prepared in the guest room, and an old woman with goosebumps and a few little maids waited quietly. The leopard rider who helped Yan Yuzhi into the room was stunned immediately, so let's send a younger slave and maid, this old lady is here, what are you doing?

The old lady laughed twice, stepped forward with brisk steps that definitely did not belong to the elderly, unceremoniously squeezed away the leopard ride, held Yan Yuzhi, and said softly: "The old body is the best massage female doctor in the village, the prince is tired all the way, let the old body give you a good press on the acupoint to relieve fatigue." ”

Yan Yuzhi opened her beautiful big eyes, glanced at the old woman, and smirked: "Why do you look like Grandma Zhuang." "He was almost raised by the old woman.

"It's kind of like that." The old lady didn't stop, helped Yan Yuzhi into the room, and then went directly to the bathroom, and said with a smile, "People are like this when they are old, their faces are full of furrows and wrinkles." The son of the world must not dislike the old body. ”

"No, no." Yan Yuzhi saw that the leopard rider also came in with him, so he did not refuse the old woman's service. After three or two clicks, he was stripped to only a pair of calf nose pants, and he went into the large bathtub by himself.

But why hasn't there been any movement for a long time? Yan Yuzhi turned his head to look, but saw the old woman staring at her upper body, silently shedding tears. He smiled: "Don't be afraid, Mama, these are minor injuries and are not in the way." ”

Staring at the fine and scattered scars on Yan Yu's fair skin, the old lady couldn't help crying, picked up the bath towel with trembling hands, gently scrubbed Yan Yu's back, and cried: "The old body is not afraid, but distressed, distressed......"

When Mama Zhuang bathed herself, she would occasionally stare at these scars and shed tears. Yan Yuzhi suddenly sniffed, but still smiled and said, "Mama feels sorry for me, so help me press the acupoints later." ”

"Good! Good! The old lady cried, responded, and carefully bathed Yan Yuqin. (To be continued.) )
