Chapter 11: Homely

Zhang Zhijie took the maid and walked towards his mother's yard, the spring breeze was blowing, a thriving atmosphere, and Zhang Zhijie was in a good mood. I finally took a solid step and approached Zhu Houzhao smoothly, perhaps I have affected the course of history like a butterfly.

When he entered the door and saw his mother sitting on the kang drinking tea, Zhang Zhijie straightened his mind and walked up quickly to say goodbye. When Mrs. Zhang saw it, she hurriedly pulled it up, took Zhang Zhijie's hand and looked it up and down, and saw that there was nothing bumping and touching, so she nodded reassuringly.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhijie smiled and said: "How old I am, I am entering the palace as an accompaniment, and I am not riding a horse to fight, you can rest assured." Caixia next to her interjected and smiled: "Look at the second master's mouth, there are more words than before." ”

Mrs. Zhang was also very happy to hear this, and asked with a smile, "What are you doing today?" Zhang Zhijie replied with a smile: "In the morning, Master Yang came to talk about "Mencius", and then something left, and the prince was bored and took us out of the palace. ”

Mrs. Zhang said happily: "I used to detain you all the time, and you didn't want to go out and walk around, but now it's okay, go out to experience and experience, get to know more people, you are about to grow into an adult, and you can't always stay in the back house." ”

After speaking, he sighed with some emotion: "In a blink of an eye, you are so old, and you are about to marry a daughter-in-law." Zhang Zhijie was a little speechless, although he knew that people at this time were married early, but he was really not used to it, Zhang Zhijie said perfunctorily: "What kind of kiss, it's good." ”

Mrs. Zhang was happy when she heard it, patted Zhang Zhijie and said with a smile: "I just said that you have grown up and are childish, and people will naturally get married when they grow up." Mrs. Zhang pursed her lips and smiled: "Don't worry, my mother will definitely choose a good daughter-in-law for you." ”

Zhang Zhijie muttered: "What is this, it's still early!" As he was talking, a little maid came up to report that the meal was ready, so he began to pass on the rice. Zhang Zhijie began to eat quietly, but he thought about getting married, and estimated that he really had no right to speak, the order of his parents, the words of the matchmaker, but he didn't have anything to do.

Getting married, such a big thing doesn't have anything to do with yourself, is there anything worse than this? Thinking that he would get married in the future and that he didn't know anything about it, he hadn't even met before, and he didn't even know what he looked like, Zhang Zhijie felt very terrifying.

Thinking about it, Zhang Zhijie couldn't help but think of the purple-clad girl with a familiar face he saw in Zhang's mansion. Zhang Zhijie was eating here in a daze, thinking about things, and didn't notice that the maids standing on the side were all looking at him and snickering. It is estimated that tomorrow, oh no, it is estimated that the gossip about Zhang Erye even thinking about marrying a daughter-in-law will spread throughout the mansion tonight.

Zhang Zhijie, who had eaten, said goodbye to Mrs. Zhang under the pretext of being tired, and returned to his yard worriedly. Cui Mo didn't follow him to the upper room, and when he saw Zhang Zhijie coming back with a depressed face, he was puzzled, he was fine when he left, but his mood changed after eating.

Cui Mo quietly asked Xiangyu, "What happened?" Why does the second master look unhappy? The taro pouted: "It's not all because of the second grandmother!" Cui Mo stared at the big eyes and said with a confused face: "Second grandmother? What second grandma? ”

The taro angrily pouted in the direction of Zhang Zhijie and said, "Na, of course it's the second grandmother of that one." Cui Mo was taken aback, such a big thing happened during this meal, the fire of gossip was burning, and he pulled the taro and said urgently: "Good sister, tell me quickly, when will it be decided?" Whose lady is it? When will the second master get married? ”

Zhang Zhijie really couldn't listen to it anymore, so he patted the taro on the head and said, "What are you talking nonsense?" What second grandma? I know all day long. After speaking, he pulled Cuimo and said, "Go, go, come and beat your legs, don't listen to her nonsense." ”

Zhang Zhijie was lying on the kang and was being served by the maids, but Xu Guangmian was frowning and listening to the report of the little maid.

Xu Guangmian has been in the capital for so many years, and he is not in vain, although he is arrogant and domineering, he has no shortage of eyes. After Zhang Zhijie and Zhu Houzhao left, Xu Guangmian immediately arranged for the little servant to follow them with someone.

Xu Guangmian was suspicious of the name of the YN Mu family reported by Zhang Zhijie, and Xu Guangmian also wanted to know where his foothold was. So Xu Guangmian told the little guy to follow closely, and see where they went, what they did, and who they met.

As for Zhang Zhijie and Zhu Houzhao, they didn't expect anyone to follow them at all, of course, maybe they didn't care at all.

Xu Guangmian sat there and listened carefully to the little servant: "They went out of the alley and stayed at the gate of a Zhang Mansion for a while, and then a man from the Zhang Mansion led them into the mansion. The little inquired, it turned out that the family was a side branch of the British Mansion, and the uncle of the Zhang Mansion was in charge of the guards in the East Palace, and today it happened to be the birthday of the old lady of the Zhang Mansion. ”

When Xu Guangmian heard the British Mansion, his face changed slightly, and he groaned in his heart: Although the British Mansion and his own family are both national mansions, the British Duke is the first of the Ming Princesses. I have been in Beijing for so many years, and there are few children of the family who don't know about it. After all, the circle is so big, let alone the children of a wealthy family like the British government.

Xu Guangmian's mind was spinning, and he didn't make a sound, and when the little guy saw this, he continued: "They stayed in Zhang's Mansion for a long time, and after they came out, they went directly to the palace, and the little boy brought a few people into the palace. Hearing this, Xu Guangmian's face became ugly, and he said sharply: "You read it right? Is it only that eunuch who entered the palace? Shouldn't that little boy be with that Mu? ”

Seeing that Xu Guangmian's face changed greatly, the little guy swallowed nervously and spitted at the mouth: "Master, the little one guarantees that you are not mistaken, the little boy entered the palace with three people, and only the one named Mu left alone." ”

Xu Guangmian's face sank like water: "Go on." The little guy hurriedly said: "The one named Mu got into the carriage and went, and went to the Life Waiting Mansion." ”

Xu Guangmian's face was a little pale, and his hands were so blue that his joints were blue. The news that the son of the longevity mansion entered the palace to accompany the prince has long been spread, and Xu Guangmian has also heard of it.

Xu Guangmian sat there with a little dark in his eyes, it turned out that he was not called Mu anything, but Zhang Zhijie. Then the little prince was followed by a eunuch, went to the house of the East Palace Guard, and finally returned to the palace, then he is undoubtedly the prince.

Things were strung together all at once, and Xu Guangmian thought that he almost beat his prince, and he broke out in a cold sweat in an instant. If he really beat the prince, what if he didn't need the emperor, the old man might have beaten himself to death first, no, not possible, it must be.
