Luoyang, the fief of Zhou Kang, is a prosperous and wealthy place. However, he is low-key, Cui Keyin has never heard of this King of Chu, if it weren't for her relationship with Zhou Hengding, she wouldn't even know that there is such a person in the clan.

"You became a feudal domain at the age of ten, what about the King of Chu?" Cui Keyin asked.

Presumably, Wenzong had mercy on the second son, otherwise he would not have sealed his domain in Luoyang. It was the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, and it was really not on the same level as Jincheng.

Zhou Heng smiled, there was no bitterness in his smile, and said: "The second brother got married at the age of sixteen, and he became a family after three months. ”

Cui Keyin instantly understood that Zhou Kang was not jealous of the Queen Mother because of his biological mother's low status and early death, so he was able to calmly accept the domain.

"Haven't you seen each other all these years?" Cui Keyin resisted the urge to go over and hug him, and said softly.

Zhou Heng shook his head: "No." ”

The two of them didn't know what to say next, or Zhou Heng broke the silence first and said, "The peach blossoms in Biyunju have bloomed, do you want to go and see it?" ”

Layue originally wanted to go to enjoy the plums, but she nested in Huayue Xuan every day and was too lazy to move.

"Okay." Cui Keyin said: "When will people repair the Purple Smoke Pavilion?" ”

The weather is warm, the materials will not freeze, and you can start work, right?

"It's already being renovated. The painted beams were repainted, the floor tiles were re-laid, and a hugging building was added for you to use when discussing with the stewards of the house. ”

Originally, this was not the main hall where the hostess lived, and there was no council chamber.

Cui Keyin nodded.

The two chattered for a long time, and Zhou Heng said goodbye and left.

The next day, Zhou Heng entered the palace. pretended to inadvertently mention that Yao Huidong was promised to Zhou Kang as a side concubine.

Zhi'an was surprised: "Wasn't she rejected by Cui Qing's wife?" ”

"yes. Master Cui is the brother-in-law of the minister's brother-in-law, and Cui Muhua is the cousin of the brother, so this kind of relationship naturally can no longer be the concubine of the minister's brother. Isn't that different for the second brother, the Cui family is not the second brother's Yue family. Zhou Hengzhen has words.

And that makes sense. Emperor Zhi'an thought for a while and said, "Then I will make it difficult for him to do this marriage, so as to save him a daughter and a hundred families." ”

One woman has a hundred families! Zhou Heng really sweated, once this word spread, who would dare to marry the sixth lady of the Yao family?

Emperor An was probably annoyed by Yao Shilang's three times and twice to marry his daughter, and it was rare to be resolute. Immediately sent the chamberlain to Xuanyao Shilang to the Qinzheng Palace.

Yao Shilang worked in the Yamen. The emperor announced the summoning, did not dare to slack off, immediately put down the official business at hand and rushed over.

See Bi. Seeing that Zhou Heng was also present. I couldn't help but show a big smile.

"Yao Qing. I heard that your daughter is not young, and she is the same age as the king of Chu, so I promised your daughter to the king of Chu as a side concubine. Do you think so? "Emperor Zhi'an discussed with Yao Shilang.

Yao Shilang was first overjoyed, then shocked, and then categorically refused: "The minister only has such a daughter, how can he bear her marrying Luoyang far away?" Holding the long beard hanging down to his chest with both hands, he said: "The minister is already a half-cut person who has entered the ground, and there will be no daughter Chenghuan on his knees in the future, what to do if he is alive, it is better to die immediately." ”

Emperor An was most afraid that these civil officials would die or live, so he immediately said nervously: "If you don't want to, you don't want to, you don't need to seek death." ”

But he must not die, otherwise, there will definitely be a note in the history books, writing that he forced the minister to death for a prince's side concubine, and he was a faint king.

The matter has come to this point, Zhou Heng had no choice but to come out to play a round.

Yao Shilang soon knew that Zhou Heng was talking to Emperor Zhi'an, and asked Zhou Heng to meet.

Zhou Heng refused on the grounds that the vassal king was not allowed to make friends with the ministers.

Yao Shilang was so angry that he discussed with Yao Huidong: "Don't forget it." Now that the spring season is imminent, waiting for the list, my father will pick a Jishi for you, which may not be as good as the king of Jin. ”

It's better than being a concubine.

Yao Huidong shook his head and said, "I heard that the King of Jin looks cool Xiao Wei Guifei, looks talented, has a graceful physique, and is the most beautiful man in Beijing." The daughter has made a wish since she was a child, if she doesn't marry, if she marries, she must marry a beautiful man. Besides, her daughter is the daughter of the squire, but Cui Keyin is the niece of the squire, why can she marry the King of Jin, but her daughter cannot? ”

The two have been dating for a while, and they can barely be regarded as handkerchiefs. Whether it's handkerchiefs or girlfriends in later generations, which one isn't secretly competing with each other? Cui Keyin's parents died early, where can she compare to her parents, and her biological father is a third-grade waiter. She was not convinced, and she had to press Cui Keyin.

Yao Shilang was silent for a long time, and said: "How to make the King of Jin tempted by you, my father doesn't understand, you can only rely on yourself." ”

Yao Huidong returned to the back house to discuss with his mother for a long time, and his mother left for Xinglin Hutong.

There is no post to visit, and Jiang has a reason not to see.

Mrs. Yao's maid smiled sweetly at her disciple Chen Liu, her voice was sweet and glutinous, and she put a piece of silver in Chen Liu's hand, and said, "Brother Lao, Mrs. Jiang is not in the house, and it is the same when I see Miss Cui." ”

Chen Liu didn't want to run again, but the little girl in front of him laughed and the two sweet dimples seemed to be filled with fine wine, and he got drunk before he drank. Put away the silver in the palm of his hand, and then touched the maid's little hand, his voice unconsciously softened: "Wait here, I'll ask for you, see if the young lady has time to see your wife." ”

The maid naturally thanked and thanked.

Soon, Chen Liu came out of the corner gate and said, "My young lady is about to go out, and she has no time." ”

As he spoke, a black-painted flat-bottomed carriage drove out of the side door, followed by a group of guards. The carriage went out of the side door, and the guards clamped the horse's belly and protected the carriage in the middle.

The maid immediately recognized that this was Cui Yaoyin's carriage, and there were less than ten young ladies in the capital who could have such a carriage, and Cui Yaoyin had one.

She ran over and stopped in front of the carriage.

The carriage stopped.

Lu Ying lifted a corner of the car curtain and frowned, "What's wrong?" ”

"Sister Luying." The maid's face was full of smiles, and she raised her hand to greet Lu Ying familiarly: "Where are you going with Miss Cui?" My wife is here. ”

This maid is Mrs. Yao's personal maid, and Lu Ying has seen it several times in Chunshan Residence.

Lu Ying reluctantly smiled and said, "Is Mrs. Yao here?" ”

In the car, Zhou Heng and Cui Keyin sat opposite each other, and after listening to the conversation between the two, Zhou Heng whispered to Cui Keyin: "It's really ghostly." ”

Outside, the maid had already shouted: "Madam, it's Miss Cui." ”

In a reasonable situation, Cui Keyin had to go over and say hello.

"Your peach blossom luck is really prosperous." Cui Keyin teased, got up and got out of the car.

Mrs. Yao had gotten out of the carriage and walked to Cui Keyin's carriage.

"I've seen Madame." Mrs. Yao is a third-grade order, and she is the same as the Jiang family, so Cui Keyin had no choice but to salute.

Mrs. Yao took a step forward, hurriedly held Cui Keyin when she was about to bend her knees, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I just said that your eldest aunt is not in the mansion, and it is the same when I see you." ”

"It's a coincidence." As soon as her hand reached over, Cui Keyin straightened up and said, "I just have something to go out." (To be continued......)
