Chapter 42 Hasty Ending

"Did the old lady and Wen Gongzi hit it off at first sight, but they became friends who forgot about the students and others?" The person who walked in was Ouyang Yuanshui, he changed his clothes at this time, although it was still an indigo robe, but there were more auspicious embroidery patterns on the corners of the sleeves, and a jade pendant the size of a child's fist was hung on the leather belt, which looked much more solemn.

After entering the door, he smiled before saying a word, and said, "Everyone else is polite, embarrassed to come in and disturb, the students were a little longer before the old lady, but they came in unceremoniously." ”

After saying this, he seemed to have just seen the scene of Mrs. Zhuang's ancestors kneeling, and he was stunned, "This is?" ”

"Where's the bastard thing!" Xu Jingyuan was originally forcing Zou Yiang, but when she saw him come in to interrupt, Tie Qing's face became more and more ugly, but at this moment, Ouyang Yuanshui's eyes turned and fell on her, she immediately raised her eyebrows, and shouted, "Trespassing without permission is simply deliberately spying on the female dependents!" Damn it!! ”

"Miss Xu, this is Ouyang Shizi." Old Madam Zhuang was still happy when she saw Ouyang Yuanshui coming in, thinking that after his interruption, the scene would be somewhat relaxed.

At this time, seeing that Xu Jingyuan was actually angry at him, he hurriedly said, "He is the Xixi of our mansion, and he plans to enter Beijing to take the exam in two years." ”

The old lady emphasized the word "scholar" and the future of going to Beijing to take the exam in two years, naturally hoping that Xu Jingyuan would raise his noble hand and not be too harsh for the sake of Ouyang Yuanshui being a scholar and not an ordinary scholar.

It's just that Xu Jingyuan is of noble birth, Emperor Yongle is spoiled for three points, just a scholar, even if he has a great future, it is nothing in her eyes.

After hearing the meaning of Old Madam Zhuang's words, she became more and more annoyed: "Xixi? Miss Ben, I don't think any of you in the west seat of Zou Mansion are good things! The female teacher is unfilial and unjust, incorruptible and shameful! The male teacher is rude and rude, despicable and obscene! Do you still want to go to Yingtianfu to take the exam? It's a shame! ”

Everyone who said these words dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, and Mrs. Zhuang was also silent.

"Miss Xu, right?" After a brief silence in the room, Ouyang Yuanshui squinted his eyes and suddenly said loudly, "What you said seems to know a lot about the Zou Mansion?" It's just that it's not the students who bury their own owners, and the gap between the Zou Mansion and the Dingguo Mansion is not only a world of difference? Miss Gui is the daughter of the Dingguo Mansion, and this time she came to Zou Mansion to celebrate the birthday of the old lady, which was originally suspicious, and even the west seat of Zou Mansion was well known at this time, but she didn't know what Miss Xu wanted to come to Zou Mansion? ”

He didn't seem to know, or didn't care, that someone would take his life with Xu Jingyuan's words, and said slowly, "It stands to reason that with Miss Xu's identity, even if Dingguo Gong has any plans, it is impossible to work for you." Or was this matter originally done by Miss Xu herself? It has little to do with the Dingguo Mansion, so he will go out in person? ”

Xu Jingyuan's face was like frost, and he said coldly: "Miss Ben is on a whim, is it embarrassing to explain to you a disciple who is not on the stage?" What do you think you are! ”

"Of course, the student is not worth mentioning in front of the young lady." Ouyang Yuanshui looked at her and said softly, "But although the Zou Mansion is far less noble than the Dingguo Mansion, in Jining, it is also a little thin!" Usually it is okay, but now the court has spread the news that the Son of Heaven intends to move the capital, and he is to order the Ministry of Engineering to preside over the dredging of the canal, so that it will be used for future transportation. ”

"Jining is adjacent to the canal and is one of the most important ports!"

"The Zou family lives here, and they are in harmony with their neighbors."

"Miss Xu came suddenly, and she had already made the Zou Mansion sincerely afraid!"

"Now that these words have spread out, within a day, slow talk about Jining, that is, up and down Yanzhou, I'm afraid there will be a lot of discussions!"

"At that time, rumors abounded, but Jining had changed. Because of the decay of the Zou Mansion, it is okay to pay it back, Miss Xu is deliberately watching the dredging project also be affected by this? Or, the Dingguo Mansion opposed the relocation of the capital, and deliberately let Miss Xu go out and do this to test the Sacred Heart? ”

Without waiting for Xu Jingyuan to speak, he turned to Song Jianiang again, and his smile was even bigger, "Students don't dare to provoke the sisterhood of Miss Xu and Miss Song!" However, has Miss Song ever thought about it? Miss Xu is the niece of the late Queen Mother, and she has always been regarded by Her Majesty as her own junior! If Miss Xu has anything naughty, His Majesty will not care about it! But what about Ling Zun? Ling Zun is His Majesty's courtier, but there are not many people in the court who hold pearls and jades today, Miss Song is sure that the temple will not be able to live without Ling Zun? ”

Song Jianiang knew that she couldn't recognize this even if she didn't have the city government, so she panicked and said, "Don't talk nonsense!" How could my father be so arrogant? ”

"Then Miss Song may think that you have a good relationship with Miss Xu, so Miss Xu's dignity in front of His Majesty, you also have it?" Ouyang Yuanshui said with a smile, "Even if you are suspected of opposing His Majesty's resolution, Your Majesty will laugh it off, not only will he not punish you, but he will not anger Ling Zun?" ”

Song Jianiang's heart was shocked when she heard this!

Although she has been haunted and suspicious since she heard that Xi Fuwei and Shen Weilan have a close relationship, she saw Xi Fuwei with her own eyes and found that this girl is really beautiful.

But he also knew that the reason why he could deal with Xi Fuwei confidently with the identity of Shen Steallan's quasi-fiancΓ©e was because she was Song Li's daughter.

If Song Li was belittled or even rejected by Emperor Yongle...... So what is she?

At that time, even if Shen Steallan still likes her, the Shen family will definitely oppose it!

"Sister Jingyuan......" Thinking so, she had the intention of retreating, gently pulled Xu Jingyuan's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Or...... Forget it? ”

Xu Jingyuan's face was gloomy, and he said: "A gentleman who knows where he got out, thinking that he was eloquent and able to say a few words, actually thought that he could play with Miss Ben and Sister Song?!" ”

Because of his father's merits and his relationship with Queen Xu's aunt and nephew, Xu Jingyuan was really very decent in front of Emperor Yongle.

So she wasn't afraid to go against this uncle once in a while.

Just like Ouyang Yuanshui said, Emperor Yongle couldn't bear to dispose of her.

Since she had no worries, and she didn't want to give in to Ouyang Yuanshui and use her embarrassment to fulfill his cleverness, she ignored Song Jianiang's persuasion, but sneered and said, "Miss Ben originally had no intention of doing anything to the Zou Mansion, but if you say so, Miss Ben doesn't want to let go of the Zou Mansion!" How are you staying? ”

"Sister Jing Yuan!" Hearing that Ouyang Yuanshui hadn't answered yet, Song Jianiang was startled first, and the hand that had quietly pulled her sleeve suddenly couldn't care about covering it up, and said eagerly, "Sister, this kind of thing is making a big fuss, and it's not good for our girlfriend's reputation!" Why don't you find an opportunity to step down and deal with that in private? ”

When she said this, she felt that she was a little kind of revenge, because Xu Jingyuan was angry with her after all, so she specially came to this Zou Mansion to scare people.

Now that he is helping the person who made Xu Jingyuan angry, he wants her to calm down, which is really a bit poignant.

Busy and said, "Sister, I know that you are all here to give me a head, but if you get into trouble because of this, or if you turn around and be reprimanded in front of Your Majesty, you will even be talked about...... Even if I die, I can't escape the blame! ”

Seeing Xu Jingyuan staring at Ouyang Yuanshui with a cold face, obviously still refusing to step down, Song Jianiang thought about it, and her voice was full of crying, "Sister Jingyuan, we have no grievances with Zou Fu, but we just want to deal with that Xi Fuwei!" Now this scene is going to make trouble, but Zou Mansion will not let go! Even if we don't care about a Zou Mansion, but do you say that a mere Xi Fuwei deserves us to dislike His Majesty and cause trouble to the family? ”

In the end, she is Xu Jingyuan's best playmate since she was a child, and she knows how to make Xu Jingyuan listen.

At this time, she was pulling this sister, and she was bitter and easy to say, and after a long time, she finally made Xu Jingyuan speak with a calm face: "Don't you want to pay homage to the old lady?" Kneel down and kowtow ninety-nine heads before you get up! ”

She narrowed her eyes and looked at Ouyang Yuanshui, "And these ninety-nine heads must be knocked loudly!" If it's not loud enough, give me ten more knocks! ”

Old Madam Zhuang's face changed when she heard this, and she was about to speak, but Ouyang Yuanshui had already agreed with a smile: "The old lady is like a parent and child to students, and this is all as it should be." ”

At this time, Xi Fuwei quietly left under Ouyang Yuanshui's signal, taking advantage of his kowtow and no one paying attention to him.

After going out, I turned a corridor and entered the moon cave door, and I saw Mrs. Shang holding the maid's hand and waiting in person.

When he saw her come out, he asked with concern, "How?" ”

"Fortunately, Mr. Ouyang saved the scene in time!" Xi Fuwei wiped the cold sweat on her forehead and sighed, "But he is also bold, and he has almost completely offended those two at this time...... I don't know if he will be affected when he enters Beijing to take the exam in the next year? ”

"Today, I have the demeanor of His Majesty Emperor Taizu." Mrs. Shang also sighed when she heard this, and said, "Something like the Cai Dadian, even if it is a person like Dingguo Gong and Shangshufu, if you dare to make a hindrance from it, you will definitely not let it go!" These two have been together for a long time, and they should know that the stakes are high! ”

Having said that, she frowned all the time, obviously worried about this.

After all, although Ouyang Yuanshui is not a child of the Zou family, he has been a Xixi seat in the Zou Mansion for two years, and they have some affection for each other.

If he is named on the gold list in the future, it will also be an honorable thing for Zou Fu.

Now that there is such a trouble, not only Ouyang Yuanshui is remembered by the Xu family and the Song family, but the Zou Mansion is afraid that it is almost the same.

Even if Zou Yiang doesn't study seriously and doesn't work hard, let alone the title of the gold list at this time, even if he takes a show, it is still far away...... Mrs. Shang is also worried about her son.

"Fortunately, above the temple, there are not only Dingguo Mansion and Song Shangshu covering the sky with one hand." Mrs. Shang thought about it, looked up at Xi Fuwei, and said, "Other courtiers or something...... I'm afraid that I may not be used to the nonsense between Miss Xu and Miss Song, right? ”

This is a euphemism to ask Xi Fuwei whether she will use the backers behind the scenes to interfere in this matter.

Xi Fuwei didn't know anything about this, or rather, she felt that Shen Shulan knew that Xu Jingyuan and Song Jianiang were not good, but she didn't allow herself to avoid it, which in itself explained his attitude.

That is, Xi Fuwei's subordinate has no status in his mind.

But she definitely wouldn't tell Mrs. Shang this, and she only bowed her head slightly at the moment: "What Madame said is very reasonable, the status of the two young ladies is so noble, and it is a mistake to do so. When it comes to identity, how can no one ask about it? ”

Mrs. Shang received a satisfactory answer and nodded: "You go and rest, I should return to the table!" ”

After the two said goodbye briefly, Xi Fuwei did not return to the table, but went back to Fenzhi Building, hastily cleaned up, changed into a not so bright dress, and went out of the house through the back door and went straight to Shen Zhilan!
