305 Geisha are rampant
After listening to Hua Ke's conditions, Hua Tian felt like he was hit by thunder.
Seeing Hua Tian's expression, Hua Ke smiled and said, "Sister doesn't need to worry, the second brother has inquired, and there is almost no possibility of reconciliation between Zhong Liche and the Zhenguo Mansion." He would never have agreed to that condition. β
"Oh, but really? The second brother Mo had to listen to the fake news, so he didn't suffer a loss in the end. Hua Tian said.
Hua Ke shook his head, "Don't worry, it won't." β
After speaking, he briefly explained the news he had heard - he had not heard much, but it was enough for him to know that Zhong Liche would not agree to the conditions.
Zhenguo Gong originally married his wife, who was Zhong Li Che's mother. But six years ago, when Zhong Liche was twelve years old, the Duchess of Zhenguo passed away. Zhenguo Gong kept filial piety for three years, and then married his stepfamily.
For some reason, Zhong Li was furious, and on the day he entered the door, he announced that he had left the Zhenguo Mansion and went straight to the northwest to join the army.
Two years ago, he was made a general, and only then did he return to the imperial capital from the northwest.
"He must hate the Zhenguo Mansion very much, otherwise he wouldn't even want his ancestors. The old town sent someone to invite him back every year, but he didn't pay attention to it at all. Therefore, he will not agree to that condition. Hua Ke said in a brisk tone.
For picking other people's death holes to blackmail people, Hua Ke has no guilt in doing it. His temperament is really more ruthless than Hua Tian, but he usually doesn't show it.
And although Hua Heng has a generous temperament, but Zhong Li moved to Hua Tian's head, he couldn't wait to slap him to death, where would there be sympathy on the side?
Hua Tian nodded, since the two of them are so optimistic, and there is Prime Minister Zuo in the middle, it must be fine.
Before the advent of the Cold Food Festival, Princess Shuxian's birthday, posted widely, inviting all the dignitaries of the imperial capital to bring their families to her house as guests.
Princess Shuxian has a docile temperament, writes well, and acts in a gentlemanly style, so she is married to a first-class family Cui. Her husband's family is strong, so no one will not be present at her birthday party.
As the new upstart of the imperial capital, the three brothers and sisters of Hua Tian naturally also received invitations.
What to send, the housekeeper has long been ready. On the same day, the three of them made a carriage, took gifts and went to Princess Shuxian's mansion.
Princess Shuxian's Mansion and Princess Shuhua's Mansion are generally located in the most luxurious part of the imperial capital.
When I arrived at the gate of Princess Shuxian's mansion, I happened to collide with the carriage of Princess Shuhua's mansion. On the spot, Hua Heng let the carriage back and let Princess Shuhua in first.
Who knows, Princess Shuhua poked her head out of the carriage in front of her, and said with a smile, "But Liuniang is here, come forward quickly, and we will go in together." β
Hua Tian has figured out that whether Princess Shuhua is good or bad to people is one or two superficial. She obviously has a good impression of herself.
Immediately, she got out of the carriage and walked with Lilac to Princess Shuhua's carriage.
Princess Shuhua helped the maid's hand down, stepped forward to hold Hua Tian's hand, and said with a smile, "Let's go in together, don't pay attention to too much red tape." β
As he spoke, he really pulled Hua Tian into the door.
Go in and walk along the verandah, pass through the arch moon gate, and see flowers blooming on both sides, indescribably beautiful.
Among them, a long-haired beautiful man on the left was followed by a twenty-eight beautiful woman, who was whispering.
Seeing this, Hua Tian's footsteps paused a little, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but look over there.
When Princess Shuhua saw it, she said, "That's the squire of the Criminal Department, don't pay attention to it." β
When he spoke, his tone was still contemptuous, as if he looked down on the squire of the criminal department.
However, Hua Tian secretly complained in his heart when he heard it, you are of noble birth, and you have the biggest Lao Tzu in the world, so you can naturally be rampant. But when I first entered the imperial capital, my network circle has not yet been completed, how dare I be so happy?
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but bring it to his face, and hesitated, "That's Mrs. Lang of the Criminal Department?" Liuniang wants to go up and say hello? β
"Sneer......" Princess Shuhua sneered out loud without caring and said disdainfully, "That's not Mrs. Shilang of the Criminal Department, but the art of the Ji Pavilion." β
What the? Hua Tian gasped, although he tried his best to maintain the calm on his face, but there were monstrous waves in his heart.
This waiter of the criminal department dared to openly take Yiji to attend Princess Shuxian's birthday banquet? Can Mrs. Squire of the Criminal Department endure such a breath?
Because this squire of the Criminal Department is not from the faction of the left prime minister or the faction of the right prime minister, Hua Tian has not read his information.
Princess Shuhua didn't explain, and while holding Hua Tian's hand, she said, "Today, if you see someone who is following you who is a particularly young and talented little girl, you can conclude that it is Yiji." β
Hearing this, Hua Tian was even more surprised in his heart. Could it be that it is a trend to throw his wife at home and take Yiji to attend a high-end banquet by himself?
Wouldn't this be too trendy? She seemsγIt seems that she has only seen the prime minister of an island country like to bring art to appear in her last life.
If it is really the norm in the imperial capital, art is rampant, and the information sent back by agarwood, why is it not involved?
Hua Tian thought about it as he walked, but he couldn't figure it out.
In fact, this was what Hua Heng and Hua Ke ordered to Agarwood, and when it comes to Fengyue, there is no need to report it to Hua Tian, just let the two of them control it.
"Are you surprised? This is against etiquette, there is no shame, only my Shuxian girl can do it, hum ......" Princess Shuhua lowered her voice and said coldly.
Hua Tian was shocked when she heard this, Princess Shuhua and Princess Shuxian did not agree, wouldn't she, a person who was good friends with Princess Shuhua, automatically have a bad relationship with Princess Shuxian?
"I can sue you, you are my friend, but you can't be co-opted by Shuxian." I don't know that Hua Tian secretly complained in her heart, Princess Shuhua said, "As far as I know, now that you have the support of the Imperial Capital Scholar circle, even more so than Shuxian, you have to stand firm." β
Listening to this command, Hua Tian suddenly regretted that he had just met Princess Shuhua. No, maybe she regretted her friendship with Princess Shuhua before.
As a staunch royalist, she will only be loyal to the heir to the throne, and if Princess Shuhua has other ideas, she is afraid that she will be disappointed. When you go back, you have to check Princess Shuhua's information to see what faction she belongs to.
The two took the maid and walked a few more steps, and then they saw a gravel path paved on the right side into the depths of the courtyard.
Princess Shuhua pulled Hua Tian and stepped on the gravel path, and only after reaching the end did she pick a place to sit down.
Sit down. Princess Shuhua looked at Hua Tian, "Did you hear what I said?" β
"Huh? Well. Hua Tian looked like he had just come back to his senses and nodded.
The promise of a little lady, she still doesn't put it in her eyes. After all, a family will not listen to the ideas of a little lady. Even inside Washington, her opinion is very important, but outside is not known. When the time comes, he will act when he sees the opportunity, and if he wants to regret it, he will push it to Huaheng and Hua Ke.
Seeing that Hua Tian agreed, Princess Shuhua was full of smiles, and then explained in a low voice why many people brought Yiji to the banquet instead of their wives.
Princess Shuxian is famous for her poetry, and every time she invites someone to the princess's mansion for a banquet, she must compose poetry.
The wives of some loyal ministers are from families and can compose poems themselves, and it will not be rude to bring them out. However, there are some upstarts, but their wives were married when they were poor, not to mention poetry, and even words. Speaking and acting is even more petty.
Once an official brought his wife and made a joke, Princess Shuxian comforted her, and said that she could bring a woman who was good at writing poetry, but it didn't have to be her wife. The next time the official trembled, he really brought a person who was proficient in poetry and shined at the banquet of Princess Shuxian.
At this moment, many officials' hearts were alive, and they came and went, and everyone brought talented young ladies to compete at the banquet.
Soon, the professional JI hall came into being. The artists of these pavilions have undergone professional training, and they are all proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they also have their own opinions on the topics on the political zhì, and they soon became popular in the imperial capital.
Nowadays, it is normal for ministers to attend poetry meetings and banquets, and bring their friends to come. Those powerful ladies who are not good at poetry stay in the boudoir, and their tears flow into one stream after another, but unfortunately no one sees them.
"It is said that you don't sell your body, but who would believe it? Coming and going, aren't they all guests who have entered the curtain? They are all lowly embryos, but in the end they claim to love each other. Princess Shuhua said with a sneer.
Hua Tian knew that men like to be vassals and elegant, and when they intersected with those artists, they were fascinated, and soon they were extremely "compatible" from physical to spiritual, isn't it just love?
Empathetic and extremely talented, what man can resist not loving?
The two whispered to each other, and soon many unmarried young ladies came one after another.
When these little ladies saw Princess Shuhua and Hua Tian's intimacy, they were a little surprised, and they all found a topic and sat nearby, wanting to interject.
Seeing that there were too many people, Princess Shuhua and Hua Tian had already changed the topic, and a little lady came to answer, so she followed her.
"Princess Shuxian is here......" Suddenly I heard a little lady beside me exclaim in a low voice.
Hua Tian hurriedly looked over, and before he could see clearly, he followed the little ladies to get up and salute.
"Today is for fun, don't be polite, sit down quickly." A smiling voice sounded slowly.
Although she is polite, which young lady dares to sit down seriously? Still standing, the mouth is straight and the salute cannot be abolished.
Princess Shuxian walked quickly to her place and sat down, and said with a smile, "Okay, I've already sat down, you guys should sit down quickly." β
She deliberately walked a few steps faster, and the sound of her footsteps and clothes was so loud that many people heard it. I couldn't help but have a thought in my heart, Princess Shuxian was really approachable.
Hua Tian sat down with all the little ladies, only to notice that Princess Shuhua beside her had not stood up to greet each other, but her face was full of ridicule.
"She's just pretending like this, so that the imperial capital says she's good, it's really a-really-" Princess Shuhua whispered in Hua Tian's ear, and in the end, she couldn't find an adjective.
Hua Tian lowered his head slightly and did not answer. In my heart, I thought, if you lived in the place where I lived in my last life, maybe you would know that this is the legendary "green tea".
After thinking about it like this, I realized that the little white rabbit path I took was similar to "green tea...... R1152
