Chapter 22 Common Names

What's so good about this Xu Zhi'an? Zhu Wugongzi's eyebrows were furrowed, and he took a mirror and began to take a closer look, if he looked at it from the point of view of his appearance, his appearance was not lost to Xu Zhi'an. If you have knowledge, you may be slightly deficient, but you are not such an illiterate farmer, and if you want to write a poem, fill in a word, or draw a picture, you will also win praise from everyone.

Not to mention the family background, no matter how you look at yourself, she is better than Xu Zhi'an, and it is much better, why can't Princess Yongle see it? The maid lifted the curtain and walked in: "Fifth master, the sewing room has sent this season's clothes, do you want to try it?" ”

Zhu Wugongzi's thoughts were interrupted, and he couldn't help but be a little annoyed: "It's getting more and more unruly, the master didn't call you, why did you come in?" "That maid is Zhu Wugongzi's personal service, and Zhu Wugongzi treats this maid gently on weekdays, at this time, listening to Zhu Wugongzi's anger, the maid immediately turned red, bowed her head and said: "Yes, it is the slave who is reckless." ”

Saying that the maid was about to withdraw, Zhu Wugongzi looked at the maid, thought about it and hooked his fingers: "You come here." "The maid is still sad that she has angered her master for some reason, what if someone else knows about it and takes the opportunity to take the position? Seeing that Zhu Wugongzi called himself over again, he hurriedly walked over and said, "What do you command?" ”

Seeing this maid, he smiled again for a moment, and Zhu Wugongzi touched his chin with his hand: "Master asks you, how is your appearance?" The maid didn't expect Zhu Wugongzi to ask like this, her eyes were like a nest of spring water, and she looked at Zhu Wugongzi's face and said: "The slave has never seen it, and it is more haode than the master." ”

"Then if you are asked to marry your grandfather, are you willing?" The maid didn't expect Zhu Wugongzi to ask like this, although she knew that it was strange, she hurriedly nodded: "Look at what the master said, Hugh said that he wanted the slave to marry the master, and the slave and maid in this life, as long as they can serve the master until they are old, it is enough." As he spoke, this maid wanted to lean over, if on weekdays, Zhu Wugongzi wouldn't mind having a warm encounter with this maid, but today was different, and just as he was about to push the maid away, he heard someone report outside the door: "Fifth master, the third lady is here." ”

The maid hurriedly stood up straight, stood with her hands down, Zhu Wugongzi answered, Miss Zhu San had already walked in, and saw the maid standing there and signaled her to go out, and when the maid went out, Miss Zhu San said: "Fifth brother, this bloody and strong is inevitable, but the person who wants Princess Shang can't go too far." ”

Zhu Wugongzi snorted: "What I said is just a maid, I can use it if I can use it, I think it's an eyesore, so I sent it away, I didn't do anything else, but I just wanted to ask, what kind of person am I." ”

Miss Zhu San sighed, and then said, "Fifth brother is still thinking about that Xu Zhi'an?" Fifth brother, that person has been degraded, and he doesn't want to make some inches in this life, and if he can leave Guizhou, he is the ancestor who has accumulated virtue. What do you want him to do? But there is one thing, the lotus flowers in the British Mansion bloom early, and I am going to have a lotus banquet, so it is better for the fifth brother to go for a walk with me. ”

The family in the capital, I don't know how many of this kind of flower-viewing banquets there are in a year, and Zhu Wugongzi is not interested: "What did you do?" When the time comes, I will be entangled again, how can I marry Yulin? Miss Zhu San pursed her lips and smiled: "Princess Yongle is also going." ”

This news was like a heart-warming pill for Zhu Wugongzi: "What did you say? Princess Yongle is also going, don't coax me, how could she go to these places? Miss Zhu San shook her hand: "Fifth brother, have you forgotten, whose daughter is the British Duchess?" Isn't it a cousin with the side concubine of Wu Wangfu? It is normal for the side concubine to give the British duchess a face. ”

"I naturally know, but Yulin treats that Concubine Lin, but she is mediocre, how can she go to the banquet in the British Mansion?"

"Fifth brother, this is all the old yellow calendar, since the resignation, Princess Yongle and Concubine Lin suddenly became intimate, thinking that Concubine Lin treated Princess Yongle well, and the princess finally saw it. I heard from the daughter of the British princess that Princess Yongle would definitely go. ”

Miss Zhu San's words made Zhu Wugongzi frown, and then he thought about it, if this is the case, Yulin and Concubine Lin become intimate, then she can also let the queen put pressure on Concubine Lin, after all, Concubine Lin is just a side concubine, and if she can get the queen's blue eyes, it must be different. Thinking of Zhu Wugongzi, he rejoiced, and he must behave well at the lotus banquet of the British Mansion.

As soon as the news came out that Yulin and Lin were going to the British Mansion to participate in the lotus appreciation banquet, the people who were originally unwilling to go to the British Mansion to enjoy the lotus also wanted to go, especially the one who had a man of school age, and they couldn't wait to let their son make an appearance, so that he could get the blue eyes of Princess Yongle and maybe be able to be a concubine, what a glorious thing. So the British government made a difficulty, sent out hundreds of posters, according to the past practice, can be half of the can come is almost, but now every post says to come, this time the original place of the lotus can not be used, to rearrange.

When Yulin and Lin came to the British Mansion on the day of the lotus appreciation, they saw the carriage and horses at the door, and Yulin couldn't help but say: "There are many people who come today, look at this banquet, I am afraid that there will be a lively flower viewing banquet of the queen's mother." Although Lin is strange that he has treated himself more affectionately since Yulin was resigned, it is always a good thing to have a good relationship with Yulin, and when he heard her say this, he smiled and said: "This is all stained with your light, otherwise, no one's flower-viewing banquet is so lively." ”

Stained with your own light? Yulin couldn't help but smile lightly, these people are all here because of her princess, not anything else. The British duchess had already received the notice and had already brought someone to wait there, so she came to the car and asked Yulin to get out of the car first, got into the soft sedan chair, and then hugged Yulin into the British mansion.

The British duchess also said by the sedan chair: "I know that you don't like to be disturbed, so you didn't let the guests come out to greet you, princess, don't blame." ”

"Thank you Madame for your careful arrangement, the lotus flowers in your house always bloom earlier than other people's houses, I don't know why?" Yulin asked casually, the British duchess inevitably had to say a few more words, all the way to the inner room arranged for Yulin and Lin, the British duchess invited Yulin to get off the sedan chair, asked them to have some refreshments, and then arranged to go to the place where the lotus was appreciated.

Zhu Wugongzi came to the British Mansion early today, sat at the water pavilion, and talked with the people next to him, but his eyes looked to the other side, and the water pavilion was separated by a bridge, hanging the Xiangfei curtain, which was the place where the female guests did not enjoy the flowers, and I don't know when Yulin will arrive, when the time comes, can she see herself?

Young buddies always like to talk together, and today is no exception, first the British prince said a joke, that is, Cheng Gongzi continued: "Brother Chu always likes to brag, do you know that when the wind blew that day, there was a well blown out of the wall in the small courtyard where my grandfather usually rested. ”

"A well was blown out of the wall? Brother Cheng, you lied to us again. Chengguo Gongzi said with a smile, and someone shook his head seriously: "Otherwise, you don't know, the small courtyard where Cheng Shoufu rests on weekdays is not a wall made of green bricks, but a fence made of bamboo. ”

This explanation made everyone laugh, and the prince of Chengguo had already patted the shoulder to explain the man: "No wonder Brother Cheng said that I was bragging, I only realized today that I am missing the person who helped me lie." Everyone is daxiao again, Zhu Wugongzi's eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and he really wanted to get up and say goodbye, but Yulin hadn't come yet.

Thinking of Zhu Wugongzi and looking out again, he saw two people walking over on the bridge, the first person was familiar to everyone, the son of the Lin family, but the back person had never seen him, I saw him wearing a jade-colored robe, tied with the same color silk around his waist, he did not wear a purse or other things on his waist, and he did not hold a folding fan in his hand, but he walked there, but he was handsome, and the people in the water pavilion that this appearance could suppress were bleak.

Born good-looking people, whether male or female, have to look at each other and compare them when they see them, Zhu Wugongzi is not exempt from vulgarity, and someone around him has already asked: "Who is this person?" How come you've never seen one? The prince of Chengguo has already greeted him: "Why did my cousin come so late today, I have never seen this before, and I hope that my cousin will introduce me to one or two." ”

Lin Gongzi returned the salute and said to Liu Jinsong: "Brother Liu, this is my cousin, cousin, this is the son of the Liu family, and it was the fourth aunt who asked me to bring him here." "The family is close to each other, Lin Gongzi's mother and the third grandmother of Ding'an Hou Mansion are sisters. This said that the Marquis of Ding'an is surnamed Liu, how can the prince of Chengguo not understand who this Liu Gongzi is, and he wants to express his admiration, but he can't help but be curious.

Liu Jinsong stood there calmly, seeing that it took a long time for the prince of Chengguo to greet him, he only smiled faintly and returned the salute, and walked into the water pavilion with them. Entering the water pavilion, it was inevitable that there would be another introduction, and everyone knew it, and then looked at Zhu Wugongzi, who had sharp eyes, and had already seen that the two were still somewhat similar.

Inevitably, some people muttered in their hearts, just by virtue of this appearance, they knew that Liu Jinsong was definitely a descendant of the Zhu family. Zhu Wugongzi didn't expect to meet Liu Jinsong on such an occasion, although he was caught off guard, he still bowed to Liu Jinsong: "Under the surname Zhu, named An, ranked fifth, dare to ask the name of the honorable driver." ”

Jin's name is J, this should be his cousin, Liu Jinsong's expression on his face has not changed, and he still calmly returns the courtesy: "My surname is Liu Song, no brother and no brother." "No brother and no brother, what a brother and no brother, Zhu Wei'an looked at Liu Jinsong and smiled, and smiled a little proudly: No, there are still a few brothers in the family, if Brother Liu is lonely, he can also go to my house.
