Under the willows by the river, the two walked side by side, and behind them fell Xu Sheng, Wu Zhong and the maid Qiuyue.

Zhu Cihong glanced at Yu Chen from time to time, only to see her snow-white melon seed face, like a white jade carved from mutton fat, white and delicate, and her eyes were shining, giving people an extremely pure feeling.

Walking with the beautiful woman, Zhu Cihong seems to have a spring breeze all the way, refreshing people's hearts and spleens, and his heart is rippling.

Although Zhu Cihong is not a pig brother, as a normal man, especially at this age, when he encounters such a superb beauty, his heart will inevitably be ready to move......

The two were very close at this time, her skin was as delicate as snow porcelain, and the fragrance came to her nose, Zhu Cihong couldn't wait to hug her tightly in her arms and love her.

Yu Chen was extremely sensitive to a man's gaze, and when he saw Zhu Cihong's gaze looking at him, his face immediately flushed and his eyebrows furrowed.

She grabbed a few willow leaves beside her and threw them at Zhu Cihong, her mouth opened slightly, and she said coquettishly: "Thief, what are you looking at?" ”

The faint fragrance wafted into her nose, Zhu Cihong took two steps forward, looked at her graceful figure, and praised with a smile: "Brother Yu Xian's appearance is so beautiful, it makes Brother Yu intoxicated!" ”

At this time, Zhu Cihong's thick skin is enough to make people sigh at themselves, and they will not be embarrassed.

If other men praised their beauty like this, Yu Chen would definitely turn his face immediately and walk away.

It's just that he disguised himself as a man before, and used his pen name as his real name, and deceived this Zhu Gongzi first, which is already a loss, and he really has no face to blame......

Even when she heard his praise, Xu Chenyun felt sweet in her heart, after all, women always like to hear rhetoric.....

Xu Chenyun glanced at him and said, "Actually, 'Yu Chen' is just my pen name, and my real name is Xu Chenyun......"

Zhu Cihong can ignore the etiquette and pick up the girl, but he can't ignore the fact that the other party is a woman, and provoke gossip in public, he smiled slightly, moved slightly under his feet, gently stepped back two feet, smelled the faint fragrance on her body, and said with a smile: "Flower morning and moonlight, all living beings, beautiful atmosphere, what a good name!" ”

Originally, Xu Chenyun deliberately had a cold face, like an iceberg beauty, but at this time, seeing Zhu Gongzi taking the initiative to salute and praise him like this, he smiled at the moment.

This smile suddenly brightened the sky and the earth, making people dizzy.

Zhu Cihong noticed that under Xu Chenyun's snow-white neck, there was a soft light, and faintly looked at it, it was a necklace made of dozens of thumb-like pearls.

He couldn't help but praise: "Miss Rich! ”

Xu Chenyun couldn't help but smile lightly: "My family is engaged in ocean trade, and this kind of beads is very common......"

Zhu Cihong nodded slightly, pearls are not uncommon in the Ming Dynasty, as early as two hundred years ago in the sixteenth year of Yongle, the king of Sulu (Philippines) who came to worship in the Ming Dynasty, Zeng Jin presented a huge pearl weighing seven taels and five coins to Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty.

In the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court and the common people even valued pearls far more than gold.

In the fourth year of Yongle, Ming Chengzu rewarded the king of Shu with one hundred and ninety-two taels of pearls.

During the Longqing period, the imperial court ordered Yunnan to pay tribute to 20,000 gemstones, and Guangdong pearls to collect 8,000 taels for the court.

During the Wanli period, the total weight of the pearls used in the wedding of the Wanli Emperor listed by the household department reached 80,000 taels! In comparison, the gold used was only two thousand eight hundred taels.

In addition to being inlaid on the crown and hat of clothing, the pearls offered to the court were also used in food and drink, and pearl powder has always been a favorite beauty item for women.

In order to pursue the incorruptibility of the body after death, some royal relatives and nobles buried with big pearls in their mouths......

Due to blindly following the royal family, the people's obsession with pearls has reached a certain height, and even some distortions.

"There are thousands of people who sell pearls, the rich are proud of many pearls, the poor are ashamed of having no pearls, and there is a saying that gold is not as good as beads." ”

The group was strolling by the river, and suddenly a rabbit scurried in front of them, and the reserved Xu Chenyun instantly showed the girl's heart and chased after him directly.

Zhu Cihong followed closely.

Xu Sheng also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Wu Zhong: "Let's not go to join in the fun." ”

Seeing that he kept blinking, Xu Sheng immediately understood, and he naturally wanted to create a good opportunity for the Son of Heaven to accompany the Son of Heaven to pick up girls......

And Xu Chenyun's maid Qiuyue was also very interesting and did not follow the past.

In the blink of an eye, the two were gone.

The two chased after each other, and the rabbit was gone, and Xu Chenyun showed a look of disappointment.

Zhu Cihong raised his eyes and looked around, and said softly: "The birthday of a hundred flowers is a good day, and before the half of the spring of the flower dynasty, thousands of purples and thousands of reds are covered with splendor, and Shanglao is adorned with the god of flowers." ”

There is a sea of flowers around, and a group of people gather around to worship the god of flowers and pray for blessings, a gust of spring breeze blows, stirring up pieces of red and white flower rain, it is intoxicating.

Falling flowers are flying all over the sky, Xu Chenyun is in a good mood, and can't help but praise: "Zhu Gongzi is a good poem!" ”

Zhu Cihong secretly glanced at Xu Chenyun, and saw that she was looking at herself obsessively, and a trace of sweetness suddenly appeared in her heart.

What man is not satisfied with being infatuated with such a beautiful and talented woman?

Emperors are also human beings, and throughout ancient and modern times, almost every sage and wise monarch has a knowledgeable and wise helper.

The ancients said: Those who want to be virtuous in the world will rule the country first; Those who want to rule their country must first gather their families; Those who want to gather their families must first cultivate their bodies; Those who want to cultivate their bodies must first correct their hearts;

This is self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world.

Awake to the power of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of beauty, Zhu Cihong feels that such a life can be considered perfect.

The two looked at each other briefly, Xu Chenyun's face was slightly red, and she turned her head away.

Zhu Cihong smiled: "I have a story here, I wonder if the girl is willing to listen to it?" ”

Xu Chenyun nodded and said, "You can talk about it." ”

Zhu Cihong said: "It is said that one day, Yugong was digging a mountain with a hoe, and Zhisuo asked: Yugong, what are you doing?"

Yu Gong said: I am moving mountains!

Zhisu sneered: Move mountains? Can you finish moving!

Yu Gong laughed: I can't move it all, I still have a son to move, my son can't move and my grandson to move, my grandson can't move my great-grandson to move, and the children and grandchildren are endless!

Then Zhisuo said another word, and Yu Gong put down the hoe on the spot and stopped digging. ”

Zhu Cihong looked at her with a smile and asked, "Talented girl, guess what Zhisuo said to make Yugong give up moving mountains?" ”

Xu Chenyun frowned and thought about it, according to the book, Yugong is not afraid of difficulties, perseveres, digs mountains more than once, is a person with great perseverance, what method can Zhisuo use to make Yugong give up moving mountains? It's incredible......

Eventually, she shook her head and said, "I can't think of it, I don't know what Zhisu said?" ”

Zhu Cihong didn't sell Guan Zi either, and said with a smile: "Zhisuo said: Do you have a wife?" When Yu Gong heard this, he was stunned, threw away the hoe on the spot, and said, Lao Tzu won't dig! ”

Xu Chenyun was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Zhu Cihong in a daze, with a look of surprise.

She was stunned for a minute before she stretched out her jade hand and pointed at Zhu Cihong and said, "You, you, you can make up this kind of thing to change the foolish father!" ”

After finishing speaking, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Zhu Cihong said with a smile: "This is purely made up by the foolish brother, just to make the virtuous brother laugh, but it can't be taken seriously." ”

Xu Chenyun's willow eyebrows frowned slightly: "I'm a woman, why do you still call me a virtuous brother......"

Zhu Cihong pretended to be surprised and said, "I don't call you a virtuous brother, so how do you call it?" ”

After speaking, he stared straight at Xu Chenyun, meaningful, and his eyes were slightly discharged.

Xu Chenyun's face turned red, her eyes lowered slightly, and the two peach flowers quickly rose to her jade cheeks, which was even more delicate and moving.

Afraid that she would run away in anger, Zhu Cihong hurriedly said: "This is a beautiful scene, why don't you call them over for a picnic?" ”

"Good!" Xu Chenyun hummed lightly, and her heart was determined, if she continued like this, she really didn't know what she would be teased by this Zhu Gongzi......

Zhu Cihong whistled and summoned Xu Sheng and Wu Zhong.
