Chapter 464: If you don't do it, you won't die
Everyone in Beijing knows that before Emperor Chenqing ascended the throne, he was very romantic for a while, and accepted a lot of beauties into the mansion, but those beauties were all from ordinary families, only one Zhen Jing was the concubine of Jian'an Bo Mansion, and she became the current concubine Niangniang, which shows that a good background is still quite powerful.
It can be said that this first election after the new emperor succeeded to the throne is a good time for all parties to divide the harem forces.
In addition, the queen has no children and no favor, and the dominant concubine Niangniang has recently reported that she has fallen out of favor, and the new emperor is young and handsome, and those who have daughters of school age have long been ready to move.
The Zhenguo Mansion, which has never liked to be lively, held a flower viewing party at this time, and everyone with a discerning eye knows that it is for the second son who has been slow to say that he has not been able to say that his daughter-in-law looks at it, if it is usual, it doesn't hurt to bring his daughter, anyway, there will be no less meat to take a look, and the words of the marriage will be pushed, but at this juncture, most of the mansions just want to pack their daughters into the palace perfectly, and they don't want to leave any handles.
The old lady sighed lightly and said to Mama Yang: "Speaking of which, Erlang's luck is not good, so he is just in time for this time." ”
Mama Yang comforted: "There are not many people who come, it is rare to be suitable." ”
There was little room for choice, and the old lady focused on Cai's cousin and niece.
"What's your name?"
The girl looked fifteen or sixteen years old, just delicate, led by the Cai family to greet the old lady, it was inevitable that there was a little bit of the cramped nervousness of the daughter of a small household, but it was better to have clear eyes and not roll her eyes.
"Back to the old lady, my name is Cai Yuhuan."
The old lady was quite satisfied and nodded: "It's a good name." ”
As he spoke, he took off the bracelet on his wrist and smiled at Cai's family: "It's the first time I've seen your niece, it's a good thing." ”
Cai Yuhuan saw the old lady hand over the bracelet, glanced at Cai, and saw her nodding, so he took it and thanked him.
"Let's go play with the little sisters."
When there was no one else, the old lady said to Mama Yang: "It looks like a good child." Choose a woman for Erlang, don't be too smart, the rules are reasonable, and the character is the most important. ”
"Let's go play in the garden." Luo Zhizhen also reached the age of starting to socialize, and led a few little girls to go out, including Cai Yuhuan.
There is a long pavilion in the garden, and the top is planted with vines with bright red flowers, which hang down one by one, blocking the sunlight, and it is extremely cool as soon as you enter.
In the pavilion are benches and melon and fruit snacks, which are prepared for this flower viewing party.
Luo Zhizhen beckoned everyone to sit down, and said with a smile: "It's boring to chat, let's make a wine order, everyone must bring the word 'flower' when they say a poem, and if they can't catch it, they will be punished for drinking a cup of tea." ”
They were all teenage girls, so they were naturally happy, only Cai Yuhuan looked embarrassed, and quickly regained her calm.
A group of little girls chattered and played, they were from a good background, they were all finely raised since childhood, such a wine made it naturally unbearable, which made Cai Yuhuan bitter, seven or eight cups of tea, he couldn't sit still, and said with a slightly red face: "I want to change clothes." ”
Luo Zhizhen understood, and called out to the maid who was standing aside and waiting: "Take Miss Cai to the clean room." ”
As soon as Cai Yuhuan left, a little lady covered her mouth and smiled: "The tea is good tea, and she drank it alone." ”
"Lift people's daughter......" Another little lady stuck out her tongue.
Luo Zhizhen was not annoyed, and ate the fruit with a smile.
Cai Yuhuan came out of the clean room, only to feel that the whole person was relaxed, and said to the maid with a slightly red face: "Sister Lao, take me back." ”
"Girl, go this way." The girl in Tsing Yi had a good attitude and led Cai Yuhuan back.
The two of them took a shortcut, and when they passed a hidden place, they faintly heard the sound of reprimand.
Because there were lush flowers and trees in the way, there were no two people found there, Cai Yuhuan glanced at it hurriedly, and saw a mother-in-law taking a branch and smoking a little girl with her head and face.
The little girl was only seven or eight years old, holding her head and crying, but she didn't dare to be too loud.
Cai Yuhuan paused, didn't look at it again, and sped up his steps.
The maid who led the way flashed with resentment in her eyes, and said in her heart, this Cai girl's heart is too hard.
Cai Yuhuan walked faster and faster, and when he could see Changting, he slowed down his steps, combed his somewhat messy hair, and walked over.
"Sister Cai, you're back." Luo Zhizhen was the master and came over to greet her.
The two walked together, Cai Yuhuan pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "I just passed by the willow forest, and I heard a girl crying inside, and I don't know what the situation is." ”
"Oh, there's such a thing? Then I'll tell someone to take a look. ”
Hearing Luo Zhizhen say this, Cai Yuhuan didn't say much.
This was just a small episode, after which everyone talked and laughed, sat for a while and then dispersed.
The old lady listened to the reply and nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing the old slave bullying the little maid, if he had stopped it at that time, as a guest, although he was kind, he would have been reckless. After all, it was someone else's house, and he rushed over, who knows what is inconvenient for outsiders to know?
If it was none of his business, he would have not seen anything when he returned to the pavilion, and he would not have the slightest pity for the girl who was only seven or eight years old, and he would be too cold.
Cai Yuhuan is not particularly brilliant in doing this, but it is reasonable.
It can be said that although Luo Erlang made the old lady feel cold, in the end, it was her grandson, and the old lady still used her heart to do this family business.
However, some people do not appreciate it.
Luo Erlang stood in the shade of the garden, flowers and trees obscuring his figure.
He stood upright, his gaze slowly retracting from the long pavilion, and his face was full of resentment.
He is the second son of the Zhenguo Mansion, although he missed the Chunqiu twice, but at this age, it is extremely rare among the sons of the nobles.
No one laughs at those waste materials for walking birds and fighting cocks, and no one cares about bullying men and women, and still marries a beautiful woman like a flower, why should he marry a daughter who is mediocre and ruined?
Luo Erlang just stood in the shadows, until night fell, the hustle and bustle of the daytime flower viewing party faded, and the entire Guogong Mansion calmed down, and then walked towards the west corner of the Guogong Mansion step by step.
The courtyard was small, quiet in the night, and only a dim light came out, bringing some life.
Luo Erlang went around to the back and stepped on the slightly lower wall and climbed in.
He knew Yan Niang's habits, and he didn't let the maid wait in the same room when he slept, so he went directly to the window of the main room, pushed open the window and jumped in.
Yan Niang was lying on her side, her figure undulating like mountains and rivers, and the green silk waterfall was scattered.
Luo Erlang pursed his lips and thought, the person who added fragrance to him should have been such a stunning woman, not the faint little girl.
In fact, this is the first time he has been here since returning home.
He also wanted to forget about Yan Niang, but the bowl of tonic soup before the spring festival made his more than two years of hard work in vain, and now, he has to accept such a featureless wife. So, why does he still suppress himself and not wantonly hug the woman he likes?
When Luo Erlang walked towards Yan Niang, he didn't know that Second Master Luo, who was resting in the study under the pretext of drinking wine, also got up quietly and walked towards the small courtyard. R1152
