Chapter 65: A Chance Encounter at the Back Door

At this moment, everyone has come to the moat, the sky is dark, but see a row of buildings by the river across the north and south, brightly lit, there is a stone road from south to north, the road is full of shadows, hidden pedestrians.

"You kid don't want to die? Is this what we're talking about? Xing Shangzhi bluffed and covered Zhang You's mouth.

Zhang Youhun didn't take it to heart, and secretly thought, these buildings in front of him should be the place where the so-called master of ceremonies by the East River lives in Zhangyin Bingbi, right?

He really guessed correctly, all the way to the north, after passing through the three gates, Xing Shangzhi really stopped and said to him: "Finally arrived home, do you see, this is the mansion of Master Zhang Whale...... Zhao stall head, quickly entered the inside, and said that Mr. Zhang had arrived. After you drive these carriages in, you will return to Dongchang to resume your life, and you don't need to give it to our family anymore. ”

The arrangement was completed, Zhao Jietou let go of the wheelchair's pusher, quickly went up the steps and knocked on the door, the door opened, Xing Shangzhi stepped forward and pushed Zhang You in.

"Where's the master?"

The porter was a young man, and he bowed to Xing Shangzhi neatly, and said: "Xing Ye is finally back, the master is counting you back, and he has sent someone to inquire about the door several times, but just now the palace summoned the master into the palace, and after a while, before leaving, he specially told the little one to tell Xing Ye that when he came back, he would lead Mr. Zhang to rest first, and if he had anything to say, he would talk about it when he came back from the palace." ”

Hearing what the porter said, Zhao didn't need to go inside, and led the crowd to carry the four-wheeled cart in the carriage, fierce fire oil and other things into the door and place them, and then said hello to Xing Shangzhi and Zhang You.

Soon, a middle-aged eunuch wearing a cyan sticker came from the second gate, and Xing Shangzhi hurriedly introduced Zhang You: "This is Liu Yu, the head of the house, who works as an errand in the inner house carrier, and is the righteous son of the master, and he is called the uncle." Saying that, he looked at Liu Yu and said, "Isn't the uncle on an errand?" This is Pinggu Zhang You. ”

Liu Yu's scrutinizing gaze fell on Zhang You, and Shaoqing said with a smile: "I heard that you just entered Chaoyangmen, and you faced the fifth son of Lord Yuanfu, and then the talented daughter of the Shen family appeared, and Mr. Zicheng also taught that Zhang Yunxiu a lesson." At that time, our family thought that the man who could let Miss Shen help must be different, but now it seems that Mr. Zicheng is really a talent. ”

As he spoke, he looked away and landed on the four-wheeled vehicles side by side in the gate, and said, "Are those used to fly the big Kong Ming lanterns?" Lao Xing sent a message back, the lord and our brothers don't believe that people can fly to the sky, it's too late today, and tomorrow Zicheng will have to perform to open our eyes. ”

Sleek, sophisticated, and not leaky, no wonder he can be the head of Zhang Whale's Mansion, Zhang You secretly commented on the middle-aged eunuch in front of him, looking at the warm smile on his face, he couldn't help but raise a trace of vigilance, this is a smiling tiger, and you should be more careful when you get along in the future.

Greeted by nothing, Liu Yu led the way in front of his head, Xing Shangzhi pushed the cart behind him, and the three of them went straight back, passed through four gates, and came to a small courtyard by the garden to stop.

Liu Yu said: "This is the room that the master personally arranged for Mr., the back door leads directly to the Yuhe, there is nothing to do, Mr. can go around, but no one leads, you must not enter the inner palace." ”

The treatment is not bad, I guess it is mainly due to the Kong Ming lantern. Zhang You thought secretly, thanked him, got out of the wheelchair, and limped into the small courtyard to look around.

The small courtyard is very exquisite, the east and west are equipped with rooms, three main rooms, the lights are on in the house, the light comes out through the window, and the window pane is inlaid with something similar to glass.

Zhang You was slightly surprised, sped up slightly, walked directly to the window, touched it with his hand, it was smooth and translucent, and there were faint bubbles inside, it was really glass.

Xing Shangzhi looked at Zhang You with a smile, but Liu Yu pursed his lips, revealing a trace of disdain.

"Is this glass? I've seen descriptions of it in books......"

"Glass? I haven't heard of it, this is the glaze, the royal * with the craftsman of the prison to make it, and the crystal is like, but not the best crystal transparent, into the palace of the imperial view, long live the Lord can not look at it, but the lord looks at it, and wants to come to some inlaid on the window. ”

Xing Shangzhi said.

Zhang You was stunned for a moment, it turned out that someone in the Ming Dynasty could make this kind of transparent monochrome glass. As for calling it glass or glass, it's just a title, and he didn't take it to heart.

Secretly remembering this in his heart, he smiled, no longer dwelling on the problem, and turned to walk towards the door.

"Slave and maid see sir!"

As soon as he entered the door, he saw two fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls kneeling on the ground and bowing to worship, Zhang You was startled: "Hurry up, get up, this is ......?" ”

"The master specially came to serve Mr. Zicheng." Liu Yu said.

Zhang You looked at it, the little girls looked good, but they didn't grow up, guessed Zhang Whale's thoughts, and hurriedly shook his head: "No need, no need, just find two little firefighters." ”

The so-called small fire refers to the lowest eunuchs.

Liu Yu was stunned for a moment, and was surprised, don't they all say that men are, this kid won't be pretending on purpose, right?

Xing Shangzhi said: "It seems that Zicheng doesn't like the two of them, so let's go down first." ”

The little girl retreated according to her words, Liu Yu was a little displeased, and said, "How can you let the two of them go, this is a good idea from the master." ”

"I got it, I got it, but I'm not a woman, so I'm going to find two little firefighters." Zhang You said half-truthfully, just kidding, this is the Imperial City, and it is separated from Bauhinia City by a door, and it will definitely be inevitable to enter and leave the palace in the future, and the reputation of being good is absolutely fatal.

Liu Yu was disdainful, but he didn't want to say more, so he had to find two little eunuchs to serve.

The three of them had dinner first, and then chatted casually for more than half an hour, seeing that Zhang Whale would not come back, Liu Yu and Xing Shangzhi asked Zhang You to rest earlier, and it was not too late to see Zhang Whale tomorrow.

The two of them had their own places to live in the house, and they took their leave and left.

Zhang You drank two glasses of wine, a little drunk, and did not let the two small firefighters follow, out of the back door, and saw that the fence of the moat was not far away, and there was a small pavilion next to it, so he couldn't help but paced in and sat on the fence of the pavilion to rest.

The moat was nearly 100 meters wide, and on the other side of the river was a black palace wall, and the inside was brightly lit.

The side of the moat is a stone road more than three feet wide, and there are a few palace lights in the distance, Zhang You has been staring, seeing that it is getting closer and closer, and thought that Zhang Whale has taken a shortcut and returned, so he hurriedly got up and walked out of the pavilion and stepped forward. It's just that before he could say a salute, he heard a coquettish reprimand:

"Who? Big night, do you want to scare people to death? ”

Looking at it intently, seeing that the people carrying the palace lantern were actually dressed as palace maids, Zhang You couldn't help but be taken aback, didn't dare to say nonsense, and made up: "I'm from Master Zhang Whale's house, I can't sleep, I came out to relax, and I bumped into a few people who didn't agree, I'm sorry!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and was about to walk back, but he heard a voice that was much more majestic than a talented woman and said: "Nonsense, I am Zhang Jing's wife, why have I never seen you?" Chunfang, hurry up and call someone in the house to take down this daring thief for me! ”
