Chapter 208: Remembered
Recommended reading: In the living room.
After Li Hongyu and Zhu Wanting left, Zhao Xin still had the mind to eat, pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, and his mood seemed a little worried.
Because the gate of the courtyard where the two of them were located was guarded by Zhu Wanting's guards, the subordinates sent by Zhao Xin could not find out the news, she didn't know if Li Hongyu would anger Zhu Wanting, if that was the case, the consequences would be unimaginable.
As time passed bit by bit, Li Hongyu and Zhu Wanting had not returned, which made Zhao Xin more and more worried, for fear that Li Hongyu would anger Zhu Wanting, and a rude and willful girl like Zhu Wanting was very easy to lose her mind.
Just when Zhao Xin was relieved and wondered whether to go to check, Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin walked into the courtyard chatting and laughing.
She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw this, and hurriedly stepped up to meet her, it seemed that Li Hongyu seemed to get along well with Zhu Wanting.
Looking at Zhu Wanting, who was like a bird, Zhao Xin felt quite surprised in her heart, and she didn't know what ** soup Li Hongyu poured into Zhu Wanting, and she actually fascinated Zhu Wanting.
"Zhao Gongzi, there is a lot of disturbance these days, and I still look at Haihan." When Zhao Xin approached, Zhu Wanting blessed her with a smile and said with a smile.
"The county lord is serious." Zhao Xinhu glanced at Li Hongyu suspiciously, and then smiled and bowed back to Zhu Wanting, "The county lord is a distinguished guest who can't be asked for, making the humble house shine, and the county lord can come to the blessing, why bother!" ”
At this time, Zhao Xin wanted to know what was going on, and it turned out that Zhu Wanting was like two people, so she couldn't help but glance at Li Hongyu, it seems that Li Hongyu really has a way to deal with women.
A hint of ridicule flashed at the corner of Li Hongyu's mouth, in fact, where did he have any way, as the saying goes, men chase women in the compartment mountain, women chase men in the compartment paper, as long as the layer of window paper is pierced, then Zhu Wanting will naturally not be emotional.
Therefore, Li Hongyu just held Zhu Wanting tightly in his arms to calm Zhu Wanting's excitement, but in view of the difference in the identities of the two, he couldn't give Zhu Wanting any promise at this time, he just accepted Zhu Wanting's friendship, after all, the world is impermanent, maybe Zhu Wanting will be able to meet the man she likes more in the future.
After lunch, Li Hongyu chatted with Zhao Xin and Zhu Wanting in the living room, because Zhu Wanting no longer pestered Zhao Xin, which made the atmosphere of the scene very relaxed and brisk.
"Brother Yu, Brother Xin, have you ever heard of the 'Five Sons of the Capital'?" While talking and laughing, Zhu Wanting remembered something and asked Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin with a smile.
"The fifth prince of the capital?" Li Hongyu always felt a little weird when Zhu Wanting called "Brother Yu", and he and Zhao Xin glanced at each other suspiciously, it was the first time for the two to hear such a name, and it seemed to have a lot of origins.
"The five sons of the capital refer to the five sons of the eunuchs, who are in the limelight among the powerful children of the capital, and everyone is in awe of them."
Zhu Wanting knew that Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin didn't know about this, so she explained with a smile, "You have seen one in Wuchang City before. ”
"You mean Zhang Quan, the second son of Wuwei Hou?" Li Hongyu reacted at this time, and couldn't help asking.
"Hmm." Zhu Wanting bowed slightly when she heard this, and said, "Zhang Quan is ranked fifth among the five sons in the capital, as far as I know, he is now discussing a way to take revenge on you with a group of fox friends and dog friends, but he is afraid of the current gathering in the capital to take the exam, so he doesn't dare to mess around for a while." ”
"The soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, this is the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, I don't believe he can do anything out of the ordinary."
Li Hongyu frowned when he heard this, and then looked at Zhu Wanting with a smile, he was too deep with Zhang Quan's beam, and there was no way to untie it for a while, so he could only see the move.
"I'm worried that he will calculate you before the test, there are many ruffians in the capital, and if someone takes the opportunity to find trouble at that time, it will be impossible to prevent it."
Zhu Wanting saw that Li Hongyu hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation, so she said to Li Hongyu solemnly, "Zhang Quan was swept away by you in Wuchang City, and he must find his way back, otherwise how will he mix in the territory of the capital in the future?" ”
"County Lord, are you saying that Zhang Quan will attack Brother Li when he will take the exam?" Zhao Xin's eyebrows suddenly frowned slightly when he heard this, if Zhang Quan used some indiscriminate moves to sabotage Li Hongyu's participation in the examination, it would be terrible.
For Zhang Quan, as long as he found a ruffian to frame Li Hongyu for something before the exam, so that Li Hongyu missed the exam, then it would be equivalent to a bad breath.
There is no doubt that this is tantamount to ruining Li Hongyu's career, and with Li Hongyu's strength, he should be able to stand out in the examination and pass the Gongshi.
For this reason, Li Hongyu will have to wait another three years before he can take the exam again, and three years is a long time, and Zhang Quan can free up his hands to calculate Li Hongyu to his heart's content.
"This guy can't be so mean, right?"
Li Hongyu also reacted at this time, his brows suddenly wrinkled slightly, if Zhang Quan used such an obscene method, he really had no good way to deal with it, even if he could wash away his grievances, then he would miss the test, this is the deadliest thing.
"County Lord, what can you do?" Zhao Xin felt anxious in her heart, so she asked Zhu Wanting with concern, since Zhu Wanting knew that Zhang Quan was going to be unfavorable to Li Hongyu, she would definitely not sit idly by.
"Zhang Quan, a gentleman like Zhang Quan, has no real skills, he relies on the power of his family to show off his power on weekdays, Brother Yu is Huguang's Xie Yuan, and he can't move if he wants to, so he can only rely on those fox friends and dog friends to act."
A look of disdain flashed at the corner of Zhu Wanting's mouth, and she smiled and said to Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin, "His fox friends are the same as him, they are all wine bags and rice bags who only know how to bully men and women, and if they want to play tricks at this time, they will definitely have to pass through the ruffians in the city." ”
"I have already cast eyeliner in the three sects and nine streams in the city, as long as Zhang Quan has any changes, he will know." Saying that, Zhu Wanting's face showed a smug look, and she looked at Li Hongyu with a smile, now Li Hongyu won't think that she is just a nymphomaniac!
Li Hongyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, he was unfamiliar with life in the capital and had no foundation, how could he fight against Zhang Quan, a powerful landmaker?
If it weren't for Zhu Wanting's help this time, I'm afraid he would definitely be calculated by Zhang Quan at that time, and then miss the exam, the so-called one step is too late, he doesn't have time to wait for another three years, at that time Zhu Youxiao has already ascended the throne as the emperor.
After chatting for a while, Zhu Wanting pulled Li Hongyu to say goodbye to Zhao Xinxing and went shopping, since she came to the capital, she was full of thoughts about Li Hongyu, so where did she have the heart to play.
But now it's different, Li Hongyu no longer shy away from socializing with Zhu Wanting, Zhu Wanting can naturally go shopping happily, buy Li Hongyu a lot of items, and be carried by the guards who followed.
Although Li Hongyu doesn't like to go shopping, in order to accompany Zhu Wanting, he still cheered up and followed her around the street, butterflies dressed like flowers in and out of the shops along the street.
Because it is close to the end of the year, so the street seems a little deserted, at this time in the city to work or do things almost all go home for the New Year, in a few days I am afraid that the shops along the street will be closed one after another, after all, the New Year reunion in ancient times is a big event, the shop guys and shopkeepers have to go home to reunite with their families.
Zhu Wanting's interest was very high, and she didn't get into the carriage until dusk to go back, because she entered Beijing this time under the banner of visiting Princess Zhu Xuanyuan of Shouning, so she naturally lived in Princess Shouning's princess's mansion.
Princess Shouning is the seventh daughter of Emperor Wanli, and her mother is the famous Concubine Zhenghuang, born in the twentieth year of Wanli, married at the age of seventeen, and has a beautiful appearance.
Maybe because Princess Shouning is smart and clever, or maybe because she is the only daughter of Emperor Zheng's concubine favored by Emperor Wanli, Emperor Wanli likes her very much, and lets Princess Shouning enter the palace once every five days, and her kindness to her is much higher than that of other princesses.
The reason why Princess Shouning met Zhu Wanting was because she followed the crown prince Zhu Changluo to Nanjing City two years ago to worship her ancestors, and then she hit it off with Zhu Wanting at first sight, and she liked this smart and clever sister of the same clan very much.
Therefore, Zhu Wanting quietly came to the capital to join Princess Shouning, and the ancestral local vassal kings and sons of the Ming Dynasty were not allowed to leave the fiefdom, and there were no clear restrictions on the county lord and the county lord and other daughters.
If the imperial court watched it closely, those county lords and county lords would honestly stay in their father's fiefdom, but if the imperial court was lenient, they could still go to other places to visit relatives, otherwise Zhu Wanting would not have stayed in Nanjing City for so long.
Besides, Princess Shouning is the most beloved daughter of Emperor Wanli, and she must have reported Zhu Wanting's visit to Emperor Wanli a long time ago, so who in the capital is full enough to meddle in things.
Princess Shouning's mansion is naturally built in the imperial city, and a plaque hanging on the magnificent gate reads "Princess Shouning's Mansion".
"Brother Yu, you can walk around with the horse, he lives alone in the inner city, and he is strangely lonely."
Before and after the carriage arrived at the gate of the princess's mansion, Li Hongyu helped Princess Shouning down from the carriage, Princess Shouning looked at Li Hongyu with a blank eye, and said reluctantly.
Although Zhu Wanting is rude, she is reasonable, and now she is getting closer and closer to the exam, she has now achieved her wish, of course, she will not bother Li Hongyu again, so that Li Hongyu can prepare for the exam with peace of mind.
"The pony doesn't live in the princess's mansion?" Li Hongyu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he was a little surprised, but he knew that Princess Shouning had already married, could it be that the princess had a conflict with the concubine.
"You don't know the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Wanting was stunned when she saw this, and looked at Li Hongyu in amazement.
"Is there anything to say about that?" Li Hongyu couldn't help laughing, looked at Zhu Wanting suspiciously, and vaguely felt that there was something hidden in it.
"You'll know when you see the colt." A sly look appeared on Zhu Wanting's cheeks, and then she smiled at Li Hongyu and then jumped into the princess's mansion.
"What's the secret here?"
Looking at Zhu Wanting's distant back, Li Hongyu's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, to be honest, although he was proficient in ancient classics, he really didn't understand some of the royal rules, God knows what the way is here.
