Chapter 19: Li Zhiwu Meiniang
The matter of Xuanwu Hug has been settled, and Xuan Shijing also plans to put the matter of the Jinyang Charity Fund mentioned earlier on the agenda.
Because Xuan Shijing found that his mansion was about to become a gambling gathering place for the ladies of Chang'an, not only Mrs. Cheng and Mrs. Li, Mrs. Qin and other friends who were very close to each other could get together a table, but later, the two wives of the Wei Chi family and the wife of the Niu family also brought their friends to the Hou Mansion to visit their mothers, and the mahjong group on the house made up three tables.
I came in the morning, dined at the Hou Mansion at noon, and didn't go back to my house in my own carriage until the evening, which was more punctual than clocking in at work.
This can't do it, mahjong was originally a plaything that Xuan Shijing let his mother use for recreation, but now it's good, the pastime can't be done, and then cultivate a group of gambling gods, that's amazing.
In the afternoon, Xuan Shijing took Fang Yiai to the conference hall on the fourth floor of Xuanwu Hug, and now, all the chambers of commerce of the Hou Mansion have settled on the fourth floor of the Xuanwu Hug, here, they will lead all the caravans of the Hou Mansion outside the itinerary, routes, cargo transportation and other affairs, all the goods, can also be directly reported to the account room, compared with before, more convenient, efficiency has also improved.
Sitting in this conference room are Qin Bingyue and Qin Yuxin, and then their own mother, Mrs. Cheng and Mrs. Li and Mrs. Qin, who are card friends, also followed, Xuan Shijing told the Wang family that it is best to pull some noblewomen in Chang'an City to participate together, if only Hou Mansion and Yan Lai Lou are relied upon, where is this public welfare, at most it is a charity of Hou Mansion and Yan Lai Lou united.
Of course, Jin Yang was also on the way to come, since returning to the palace, Jin Yang felt a lot more boring, and stayed in the warm pavilion all day to read and practice calligraphy with Li Zhi, and did not disturb his father.
Because in recent days, many courtiers and His Majesty Li Er have been very busy, not to mention that Goguryeo's Gao Huanquan lived in Honglu Temple for more than a month, close to the end of the year, and the surrounding vassal countries have also sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty, among them, there is Tubo who has just been defeated, and it is Tubo's great minister Lu Dongzan who led the team to the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, when Xuan Shijing sent someone to hand the post into the palace, he was very excited about Jinyang.
Even Li Zhi on the side, he was a little envious, his sister seemed to be able to leave the palace again, but it was a pity that he would be able to get out of this palace when he was away, and when he was a few years away, depending on his father's intentions, he obviously would not let himself leave Chang'an early.
"Brother Jiu, don't be so depressed, why don't you dress up and go out of the palace with me?" Jin Yang said with his eyebrows fluttering.
Hearing this, Li Zhi's eyes lit up, and then he remembered the homework assigned by his master, and his eyes dimmed again: "That's it, I still don't want to join in the fun, if the master finds out that I didn't study hard but sneaked out of the palace, he will punish me." ”
Jin Yang pursed his lips, patted Li Zhi's shoulder, and said: "Brother Jiu, you are also a prince, don't live under the eyes of others all day long, you see, Sister Gao Yang is more comfortable living in the palace than you, if you continue to be bored like this, sooner or later you will become a nerd, so it is decided, Brother Jiu hurry back to change clothes, I will wait for you in the back stable." ”
Seeing Li Zhi stuffed in the palace all day long, either reading or practicing the six arts of the gentleman, Jin Yang couldn't help but think of his life in the palace when he was a child, he was accompanied by his father, and occasionally he could listen to his father and courtiers talk about some things outside, and the ninth brother seemed to only be accompanied by books all day long.
Li Zhi naturally wanted to go out of the palace with Jin Yang in his heart, but he was good at suppressing his own desires, even if he thought about it in his heart, he could not help but think about it, but he also very much agreed with Jin Yang's words in his heart, he was a prince, and other princes could indulge themselves, why couldn't he? Even once.
With a thought in his mind, he walked towards his palace.
"Oops!" There was a coquettish shout in front of him.
The tactile sensation on his head made Li Zhi know that he seemed to have bumped into someone, and this person was still a woman
Li Zhi raised his head and looked at the girl: "Are you okay?" ”
The girl raised her head, and Li Zhi saw it clearly, it turned out that the person in front of her was a talented person who had just been canonized by her father a few days ago, and was given the name Mei Niang.
"Martial arts? Xiao Wang was rude. Li Zhi arched his hand and said: "Martial arts talent, have you stumbled?" ”
Wu Meiniang Shi Ran saluted: "The concubine has seen His Royal Highness the King of Jin." ”
Wu Meiniang is just a five-grade talent, and compared to a prince like Li Zhi, her identity is naturally incomparable, so it is natural for her to see Li Zhi salute.
Li Zhi is loyal, he is an elegant person, and he is not arrogant because of his noble status, since he lost his mind while walking and bumped into someone's house, he should apologize.
"Martial artists don't have to be polite." Li Zhi held his hand and looked at this young talent carefully.
Apricot eyes and willow eyebrows, there is a slight softness in the eyebrows, but there is a trace of heroism in the eyes, it should be because Li Zhi's head hurt just now, there is a faint trace of mist in a pair of eyes, which looks even more cute, and a water-blue full-breasted skirt sets off a graceful and beautiful figure.
"Did you hurt the martial arts just now?" Li Zhi asked.
Hearing this, Wu Meiniang smiled lightly, and that smile made the withered flowers in autumn bloom again.
"Where is the concubine's body so weak, His Royal Highness the King of Jin doesn't have to worry, the concubine is fine, but His Royal Highness the King of Jin, so lost, what are you worried about?" Wu Meiniang asked curiously.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a walk and a lot of thoughts, and I'm just distracted." Li Zhi said with a smile, the talented man in front of him was a little interesting.
In the past, when Li Zhi met some concubines in his father's palace in the palace, they would all come up to him and stammer with him, because perhaps through him, he would be able to get the blessing of His Majesty Li Er, and he was naturally very eager for Li Zhi.
But this martial artist, but never said anything flattering, down-to-earth and generous, lively but elegant, bright but dignified, among the harem concubines, can be described as a unique scenery.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin must be careful, this side is not far from the Taiye Pool, it is a little dangerous, His Royal Highness should try to take the accompanying eunuchs with him when traveling." Wu Meiniang said with concern, her expression was sincere, making people feel like a spring breeze.
"Well, I know." Li Zhi replied with a smile, remembering that he was going back to the palace to change clothes, and his son was still waiting for him in the stable of the warm pavilion, and he was not chatting with Wu Meiniang, so he hurriedly said goodbye.
Looking at the back of Li Zhi leaving, Wu Meiniang smiled, took the palace maid beside her, and walked towards the Ganlu Palace.
