Qin Hui once again said that the three poems that came out of the opposite seat were from Zheng Zhi's hand, and Wang Hao also nodded and said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid that these three poems are really from Zheng Zhi's handwriting, and the minister has also seen Zheng Zhi's lyrics on the spot, Zheng Zhi likes the women in the party, it turns out that there is a Master Li in the alum building, who was redeemed by him, and now he has taken a fancy to this Rong Xiaorong again." ”

When Zhao Kai heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he only said: "It doesn't matter who made the words, the beauty already has a concern, and this king has lost." Let's go! ”

After Zhao Kai finished speaking, he got up and walked out the door, and the two people behind him hurriedly followed.

At this time, Rong Xiaorong on the stage slowly stood up and said: "The slave family thanks Zhou Gongzi for his love, with these two songs, I am satisfied in this life." For more than a year, if it weren't for Gongzi Zhou's promotion, the slave family would not be where it is today. I am not grateful, but I am in my heart, and I can't express it. The slave family will hold a private banquet at noon tomorrow to express their gratitude, and invite Zhou Gongzi to be present at that time. ”

Zhou Duwen was overjoyed when he heard this, stood up and took two steps forward, and the person had already reached the place where the window could be opened, and replied: "Thank you Rong for the invitation, and I will definitely go to the banquet on time tomorrow." Just two lyrics, the first song is in the next. ”

Zhou Duwen naturally wants to explain that the two poems are not all from his own hands.

Zheng Zhi's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly pulled Zhou Duwen's sleeve hard, interrupting Zhou Duwen's words. Some things are best not to be said at this time, Zheng Zhi wrote the words to help Zhou Duwen, the effect has been achieved, and there is no need to destroy the romance of this confession.

Zhou Duwen didn't know why, turned his head to look at Zheng Zhi and asked, "What's the matter with Brother Zheng?" ”

"Nothing, nothing." Zheng Zhi smiled lightly, stood up and came to the end, and then said loudly: "Shi Wen Yu Xianlou Rong everyone, today I have the honor to come with Duwen to see it, and it really deserves its reputation, and now in this Tokyo city, Rong everyone can be called the first!" ”

Zheng Zhi stood in front of his head and opened his mouth to praise, and immediately someone recognized Zheng Zhi.

"I didn't expect that it was Zheng Xianggong and Brother Zhou who came together today, Zheng Xianggong is right, and it is not an exaggeration to be the first in Tokyo. Back then, Li everyone went with Zheng Xianggong, after the gold house was hidden, there was no head of the Oiran in this famous building in Tokyo, and today Brother Zheng said a word, but the head of the Oiran in Tokyo was returned, haha... ”

"Yes, yes, yes, Rong can be called the first."

Everyone was praising it, Zhou Duwen couldn't stop smiling, Zheng Zhi's song "Qingyu Case" helped Master Li, who had just debuted, become famous. Now Zhou Duwen has worked hard for more than a year, and until today, the word has also helped Rong Xiaorong reach the top.

"Thank you Zheng Xianggong for complimenting, Zhou Gongzi can have such a friend as Zheng Xianggong, the slave family is really happy for him." Rong Xiaorong listened to the words of others at this time, and only then did he know that the person who spoke next to Zhou Duwen turned out to be the famous Zheng Guanxi, this name Rong Xiaorong was obviously very familiar, but he didn't listen to others, and he also heard Zhou Duwen say it many times.

Zhao Yingluo also smiled at this time, and said: "Zhou Gongzi is so blessed, Rong Xiaorong really has a good voice and good piano skills." Talented and beautiful, it is really a perfect match. ”

Zhao Yingluo is simple-minded, talented and beautiful, and naturally looks like a perfect match. Probably Zhao Yingluo is also thinking about where his talent is.

The two brothers are not as affectionate as young people, but they are also very happy, and the cups are non-stop, even if they look at young people so vigorous, it is also interesting.

Everyone in the hall saw Zhou Duwen at this time, and they all came up to salute. Zhou Duwen had been hiding in the private room just now, and at this time he had to go out, and everyone in the hall was acquaintances. Zhou Duwen's reputation is now in full swing, and his status in the Tokyo circle is becoming more and more lofty, and a generation of elegance is such a process.

Su Shi and Zhou Bangyan and others, who were in their prime back then, probably looked like this in the circle.

The music and lyrics are still continuing, and when Rong Xiaorong is resting, there are other performances.

The planter also drank a lot of wine, and shook his head to the music, looking like he was enjoying it. Zhou Duwen was overwhelmed by the crowd and couldn't come back for the time being.

Zheng Zhi searched for Zhou Duwen in the crowd, turned around and asked with a smile: "When Xianggong was young, could he have such a brilliant time?" ”

Seed Master Dao smiled when he heard this: "When he was young, he was far behind, where can Qin Feng compare to Tokyo, it can't be the same." ”

"Eh... What is the modesty of the eldest brother, when he was in Yan'an Mansion, the eldest brother was able to go into battle with a silver gun and a bright horse, and there were no two poems and articles, and he was also a rare lover in the Northwest. The farmer said with a smile, to say that the kid of the breeder back then was definitely the best match in the hearts of the ladies and girls in the northwest.

"Haha... The division was not bad back then, and it was in the limelight. Now he is old and crippled, not to mention the past. The seed master smiled and waved his hand, although the words were so, there was a lot of pride and pride in his eyes that could not be hidden.

Zheng Zhi just asked casually, just for fun. But it was this remark that really caused many memories in the hearts of the two brothers, and the memories at this time were naturally proud. He didn't say much, just watched the two brothers laugh at each other.

Seed Master Dao also looked more at the hall, looked at Zhou Duwen, and then looked at Rong Xiaorong, who came down to meet Zhou Duwen at this time, and suddenly asked: "Here in Tokyo, how many silver taels do you need to pawn your body?" ”

The words of the seed master really reminded Zheng Zhi, and Zheng Zhi was also stunned when he heard this, and replied: "Ordinary women are not much more expensive than the northwest, but they are a figure like Rong Xiaorong, I am afraid it will cost at least three or four hundred thousand." ”

Zhou Duwen may have embarrassed himself and praised this Rong Xiaorong, but he also raised the price of redemption to the point where ordinary people could not accept it. Isn't such a sky-high price Zhou Duwen himself in a dilemma with himself.

Zheng Zhi only thought of this question at this time, Zhou Bangyan obviously would not spend three or four hundred thousand yuan to redeem a Qinglou woman for his son. Even if Zhou Bangyan can afford this price, I'm afraid that Zhou Bangyan won't do such a thing. Such a Qinglou woman is just a concubine when she marries into the family. Spending hundreds of thousands of yuan to marry a concubine, the Zhou family probably can't do this kind of thing.

"Tut-tut... A woman, three or four hundred thousand, is really sky-high! The seed master Dao was surprised, a few years ago, these three or four hundred thousand yuan were placed in Weizhou, which could be used as a year's military expenses for the Jingluo Mansion. How could the Seed Master Dao not be surprised, and probably felt that no wronged boss would do such a stupid thing, but the Seed Master Dao didn't know that Zheng Zhi had done such a stupid thing.

Zheng Zhi also understood the meaning of the words of the seed master, looked out, and only said: "Wishful thinking, there is always a way." ”

Zhao Yingluo also took over: "As long as the two love each other, how can it be measured by money." ”

This little girl spoke, although simple, but not grounded. Standing and talking without backache, three or four hundred thousand yuan is a lot of money for her father Zhao Ji at this time. The war between the northwest and the party only made up 3 million yuan of military spending.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Zhi replied: "His Royal Highness the Emperor is right, how can love be measured by money." ”

Zheng Zhi's words were obviously not to reply to Zhao Yingluo, nor to reply to the seed master. But Zheng Zhi was already ready to help Zhou Duwen in his heart, and Tong Guan helped Zheng Zhi ransom Master Li back then. Now Zheng Zhi probably wants to help Zhou Duwen redeem this Rong Xiaorong in his heart.

This Great Song Dynasty is probably just such a fool as Zheng Zhi. Maybe Zheng Zhi didn't think much about whether love was worth anything, and he didn't think about whether Rong Xiaorong, who met for the first time, was worth hundreds of thousands. But Zheng Zhi knew that Zhou Duwen must be worth these hundreds of thousands.

Just like Tong Guan felt that Zheng Zhi was worth these hundreds of thousands.

The night was getting deeper, but the banquet was not over in the middle of the night. Several guardians sent Zhao Yingluo back to the imperial city first.

The crowd was drunk. The Taoist is the most drunk among the seed masters, and Zhou Duwen is the most drunk.

On the second day, near noon, Emperor Zhao Ji came out of the Wende Palace, and a group of eunuchs carried him to the east.

To the east is the residence of the crown prince Zhao Huan.

Zhao Huan received a message from the eunuch early and stood at the gate of the East Palace waiting for Zhao Ji's arrival.

As soon as Zhao Ji arrived, Zhao Huan hurriedly saluted and greeted him.

Zhao Huan stood aside, Zhao Ji sat at the head, slowly took out a book from his arms, and said: "I don't see more people out of the palace gate on weekdays, why is someone in the Yushitai today playing your private meeting with the criminal minister in the land of fireworks?" ”

When Zhao Huan heard this, he naturally knew what was going on, but someone made a move, but he didn't panic, and only said: "Father, the son has not been out of the palace for a long time, and he wanted to go out for a walk last night, and went to Yuxian Tower. It's not a private crime, Zheng Zhi was also there at that time, and Zhou Duwen, the son of Zhou Bangyan, was also there, and he also asked his father to know it. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Ji looked up at Zhao Huan, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "Oh? Really? ”

There are some things, Zhao Ji has always been too sensitive, and the suspicious Seed Master Dao and the prince of the current dynasty get together at night, this kind of thing is really a bit abnormal, not to mention that the Seed Master Dao is still a person in the army in Zhao Ji's opinion.

"Father, the son has no virtue and no talent, not as good as the third brother, so he has always been strict with himself, dare not have the slightest transgression, trembling every day, for fear of making a mistake, when he heard that someone in the court was talking about the matter of Chen Er's young child sealing the country, he immediately took the initiative to write and resign. The son is a widow, he is the prince, and the way to govern the country is the work of great wisdom, and every time he thinks of this, he has to worry day and night, and he can't sleep. Father, son, may not be suitable... Zhao Huan's words, the more he spoke, the more sad he became, and he was already in tears, looking frightened.

retreats as advances, but in this way, it is the matter of others asking for resignation from their son in their own name, and Zhao Huan has admitted it. Zhao Huan has always given people the impression of being modest and tame, or a little ugly, but a little submissive. At this time, it is normal to be impeached.

It's just this normal performance, Zhao Ji sees it in his eyes, and he has to think about it more, thinking about why someone can't get along with Zhao Huan. is such a prince, although Zhao Ji prefers Zhao Kai, it does not mean that Zhao Ji hates Zhao Huan. Zhao Ji just appreciates Zhao Kai more, how can a father hate another son for no reason because he admires one son.

The appearance of tears, the meaning of the words, made Zhao Ji inevitably a little sad, a prince, when it comes to this point, what else should I do?

"Don't cry, people who have a wife and children and start a family still look like they're crying, have you also heard some gossip now?" Zhao Ji asked, the gossip is nothing more than Zhao Kai, who has both ability and political integrity, once this kind of voice comes out, it will inevitably be unstoppable, it will only spread more and more, how can Zhao Ji not hear it. This eldest son was so scared that he trembled every day, and Zhao Ji knew that he would inevitably be inseparable from these rumors.

However, Zhao Ji is also embarrassed, and he can't alienate his favorite third son because of some rumors. I can't stop people from talking about these palace secrets.

"Father, the son and son have not heard any gossip. It's just that last night I met Wang Huang Qin Hui and his third brother in Yuxian Tower, I can't help but feel envious, Erchen has lived in the high walls of this East Palace for 20 years, and I don't dare to go out a few times a year, just for the sake of good conduct, I don't dare to overstep. I heard that the third brother was talented in the people, and I saw the third brother's words last night, and everyone praised them, and they were really envious, and they wanted to go out and walk more, but they didn't dare to go out and move around more, and the son was bitter. Zhao Huan obviously didn't see Zhao Kai write the lyrics with his own eyes, but there is no need to guess this kind of thing. What Zhao Huan expressed was nothing more than how bitter he was, how he envied the lives of others, and complained to his father.

But Zhao Huan's words also revealed a lot of information, which was hinting at Zhao Ji, and some people seemed to be fighting with him. Today's impeachment of oneself is not so simple.

When Zhao Ji heard this, he looked at his slightly chubby eldest son, frowned slightly, and didn't know whether he understood or not, so he only said: "I haven't eaten together for a long time, so I'll have lunch here today." ”

"Erchen will go down and give orders, father later." Zhao Huan could hear Zhao Ji's words, and he didn't know if Zhao Ji listened to them, but he was not in a hurry, let alone say more, and he knew that the words could only be clicked and stopped, and saying more would have the opposite effect.

Zhou Duwen was on his way to the banquet at Yuxian Mansion at this time, and he had a hangover last night, and Zhou Bangyan seemed to be in a bad state at this time, but he was in a very good mood, and he walked with the wind.

Zheng Zhi is also busy, and many merchants have come to the camp. Zheng Zhi moved out boxes of gold and silver utensils, jade and jewelry, and displayed them in front of these merchants, waiting for these people to appraise the price, that is, to make up the cash, Rong Xiaorong's redemption is here.

Obviously, Zheng Zhi's purse is not loose, or Zheng Zhi's purse has never been loose. Western Xia was not wealthy, and the main goods had already been transported directly from the northwest to Hebei. When Zheng Zhi arrived in Tokyo, he brought these gold, silver, jewelry, and the like, and asked for a lot of money, so he had to sell these things.

Zhao Huan and Zhao Ji had dinner and chatted, and Zhao Huan also told the things he met with Zhao Yingluo yesterday, and also told the things he guessed.

Zhao Ji heard that Zhao Huan said that Zhao Yingluo and Zhou Duwen might have fallen in love, and he only felt a little unhappy in his heart, so he hurriedly sent someone to call Zhao Yingluo to the East Palace.

After Zhao Yingluo arrived, Zhao Ji opened his mouth and asked, "Yingluo, have you taken a fancy to the youngest son of Zhou Bangyan's family?" ”

Zhao Yingluo was stunned when asked, and only said: "Where did my father hear about it?" ”

As soon as Zhao Yingluo's words fell, he glanced at Zhao Huan beside him, suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Father, don't listen to the royal brother's nonsense, last night Erchen was just curious, so he wanted to see the famous Rong family playing the piano and singing." The royal brother will be clever himself. ”

Zhao Huan also laughed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Father, it seems that the sons and daughters are thinking nonsense, and Yingluo looks like she is free and easy. ”

When Zhao Ji heard this, he stared at Zhao Yingluo a few times, and when he saw the smile on Zhao Yingluo's face, he also knew that this matter was a misunderstanding, so he only said: "In the future, you are not allowed to go out at night, how can the girl who has not left the pavilion go out to play with others, if this matter is spread, what kind of system will it be." ”

Zhao Yingluo nodded and said, "Obey my father's orders, and I won't go in the future." ”

After the words were finished, Zhao Yingluo was a little serious, but turned her head to look at Zhao Huan, and there was a little anger in her eyes, which was to blame Zhao Huan for making a small report. Zhao Huan also smiled stupidly, to show that he was sorry, and he didn't know as much as his little sister. The two don't seem to be on good terms.

Obviously, Zhao Huan said this matter, not unintentionally, but intentionally. As soon as Zhao Yingluo came, let's talk about yesterday's events, with Zhao Yingluo as a witness, there is no need for Zhao Huan to say anything more about Wang Huang, Qin Hui and Zhao Kai.

Zhao Yingluo said it with great vigour, although he was just talking about things like writing words and competing for the wind. But it's enough.

Wang Huang and Qin Hui caught up with Zhao Kai, and Zheng Zhi, the seed master, happened to meet Zhao Huan. Zhao Huan was impeached like this today, and everything was clearly placed in front of Zhao Ji at a glance.

Zhao Yingluo was obviously also used by Zhao Huan. The crown prince Zhao Huan's city mansion can be seen.
