Mrs. Gu was at a loss, she wanted to walk but didn't listen to the call, and froze on the spot. Until Mrs. Song's ecstatic gasp came from the bed, Mrs. Gu couldn't stay any longer, tried to move her steps, and quietly walked out of the study, leaving the world behind her to this sweet man and woman.

Mrs. Gu returned to the room with a heavy heart, sat on the edge of the bed, and stared at the ground with her eyes. Rou Niang had been waiting for a while, and when she saw Mrs. Gu coming in, she hurriedly brought the water for washing her feet.

Mrs. Gu silently took off her shoes and socks, revealing her white jade feet. Rou Niang leaned down, rolled up her sleeves, and said with a smile: "Mother's feet are so beautiful, the officials ......" immediately stopped talking, and carefully washed Mrs. Gu's feet, just not asking Mrs. Gu what happened.

Seeing that Rou Niang didn't plan to ask her, Mrs. Gu finally couldn't help but speak: "Rou Niang, I have one thing I want to ask you, does the Metropolitan Governor like Wan'er and Gillian very much?" How much do you like it? ”

Rou Niang said: "I like it, the two of them followed the officials early, and they are still learning medical skills with the officials, and they are very favored, and the officials take them with them wherever they go." Don't look at them not sitting at the main table, in the eyes of the officials, their status is no less than anyone else at the main table. ”

Mrs. Gu thought for a moment and hesitated: "That...... What about their mothers, Mrs. Song and Mrs. Luo? What did the Metropolitan Governor do to them? ”

Rou Niang glanced up at Mrs. Gu and said with a smile: "Does my mother know something?" ”

Mrs. Gu was stunned and said in surprise: "You already knew?" ”

Rou Niang smiled: "The officials have never hidden it from us, we all know it, probably Wan'er and Gillian also know, but everyone takes this matter to heart, and it's not okay to say it." ”

Mrs. Gu said in surprise: "Mother and daughter are both Metropolitan Governors' pillow people. Does it really matter? If a child is born. Isn't it incest? ”

Rou Niang sighed: "The two ladies are poor people. Since entering the mansion, they have been getting along with officials day and night, and the two ladies are beautiful and moving, and it is inevitable that they will have some feelings with officials. The officials liked their gentleness and maturity, and they were close to them, and after a long time, the favor of the two ladies was still above that of ordinary concubines. As for what to do once you give birth to a child. is also a descendant of the Cheng family, and the officials have long had plans. ”

Mrs. Gu felt dizzy for a moment, and blurted out, "Will the Metropolitan Governor also ...... me?"

Rou Niang couldn't help but be stunned, looking at her mother's flower and moon appearance, she also blurted out: "It's not impossible!" ”

Mother and daughter, look at me, I look at you, Mrs. Gu didn't feel that her face was flushed, and Rou Niang's face was also flushed, and she was speechless.

Rou Niang was busy drying Mrs. Gu's feet, and brought another basin of water to ask Mrs. Gu to wash. Both mother and daughter were full of worries at this time. No one could speak.

After washing, the mother and daughter slept side by side. When Mrs. Gu was in a daze and was about to fall asleep. I vaguely heard Rou Niang say: "If the official likes it, then the mother will follow." ”

Mrs. Gu was startled, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that Rou Niang seemed to be sleeping soundly, and there was a subtle smile on the corner of her mouth.

Mrs. Gu sighed faintly and muttered, "Nonsense. "Close your eyes, close your eyes again. One heart was beating wildly, and it was hot and dry, and it took a long time to fall asleep.

The next day, Mrs. Gu woke up in a daze, Rou Niang had already freshened up and dressed, and her face was radiant. Seeing that his mother woke up, he smiled and said, "Mother, did you sleep well last night?" ”

Mrs. Gu got up delicately and said, "It's good, am I getting up late?" ”

Rou Niang covered her mouth and smiled: "Of course it's late, Mrs. Song came to see her mother just now." ”

When Mrs. Gu heard Rou Niang mention Mrs. Song, she immediately remembered the scene last night, her face couldn't help but turn red again, and she said angrily: "Then why don't you call me?" ”

Rou Niang said: "It was ordered by the official, saying that my mother was very tired yesterday, so she should take a good rest and don't let me disturb." ”

Instead, Mrs. Gu hurriedly began to wash up, and said cautiously: "How can we let the Metropolitan Governor wait for us?" You're really ignorant. ”

Rou Niang smiled playfully: "Just let him wait, if it weren't for a beauty like his mother, he wouldn't be too lazy to wait." ”

Mrs. Gu's face was full of crimson, she glanced at Rou Niang cautiously, and said, "Let's go, hurry up and have breakfast." ”

Coming to the flower hall, Cheng Yue was really chatting and waiting with his wife and concubine, and all business today was temporarily put down, which was considered a holiday in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

Mrs. Gu stepped forward and apologized: "There is a governor waiting for the governor, and the concubine is guilty." ”

Cheng Yue smiled: "It's rare to take a break today, don't worry, come, sit down, are you hungry?" ”

Breakfast was quickly served, fritters, porridge and side dishes, fragrant and appetizing, Mrs. Gu liked it very much, and she was full.

After breakfast, Cheng Yue said: "Let's go to the lake together today, first go to pick up the two saints and Empress Kuokuolun and the princess of Babahan, change your clothes and go." ”

The wives and concubines cheered and went back to their rooms to change their clothes.

Mrs. Gu was so frightened that she almost collapsed on her chair, she had just arrived in Lin'an yesterday, was she going to meet the two saints and the empress and princess of Mongolia today? How can these nobles be able to see them, shouldn't it be difficult to see them?

Rou Niang saw that her mother was afraid, and hurriedly comforted: "Don't be afraid, mother, the two saints are excellent people, the Queen Mother is the mother of the official, and the Queen Mother and the official are sisters and brothers, and they are all their own family." Empress Kuokuolun and the Imperial Concubine of Babahan have a bold and generous temperament, they don't have a little arrogance, they are very easy to get along with, and they are both the mothers-in-law of officials, none of them are outsiders, and their mothers go with so many of us, what is there to worry about? ”

Mrs. Gu stroked her chest and said, "Didn't you say that it was difficult to meet the two saints and the official family?" I have heard that even the envoys of some countries often delay for half a year, and I am going to visit them as soon as I arrive in Lin'an, will I exhaust my blessings? ”

Rou Niang smiled from ear to ear and said: "My mother thinks too much, and it is naturally more difficult for others to see it, but officials can see it at any time if they want to see it, even if they want to live in the past, it is not difficult, because the two saints live in our house." Mother, don't you understand who an official is? It is easy for the mother to enter the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has to open the middle door to greet it, and others want to enter, but they can only wait for the official summons, and it is not easy to see the official, sometimes it is even more difficult than seeing the two saints and the official family. ”

Mrs. Gu was slightly relieved when she heard this, Cheng Yue's status was so high, she knew that the people she wanted to see were all relatives of the Grand Governor, so there was really no need to be so afraid. So he went back to the room to change into the best clothes, got into the carriage with Rou Niang, and headed for the villa.

One after another exquisite carriages drove into the villa, Cheng Yue jumped off the horse, and Chen Baohe hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Baohe, are the two saints ready?" ”

Chen Baohe said with a smile: "I heard that I was going to go to the lake with the Metropolitan Governor, the two saints were very happy, and the Empress Kuokuolun and the Imperial Concubine of Babahan were also prepared early, waiting inside together, just waiting for the Metropolitan Governor to come and invite them." ”

All the wives and concubines also got out of the car at this time, Mrs. Gu, Pearl, Qinglian and other concubines came to the villa for the first time, and they didn't wait to go in, they were already dazzled and envious.

Cheng Yue walked to the door, and before he could knock on the door, Kuo Kuolun had already opened the door, and there was still Babahan standing behind him, and said angrily: "Why did you come?" We can't wait. ”

Kuo Kolun and Ba Ba Han wore close-fitting Mongolian robes, outlining the graceful curves of their bodies. Cheng Yue looked up and down and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I was too busy last night, so I slept a little longer." ”

Babahan quipped: "Let a queen mother, a queen mother, a queen and a princess wait for you, you have such a big face." ”

Cheng Yue immediately said seriously: "The crime of the minister deserves death, and he will be punished tomorrow." I just don't punish the minister for too much money, and the minister has to support his wife. ”

Xie Daoqing heard it inside, and said with a smile: "Come in, I know that you are hard, we have nothing to do anyway, it doesn't matter if you wait for a while." ”

Cheng Yue smiled and entered the villa with many wives and concubines, because of the large number of people, he suddenly occupied the wide space on the first floor, which made Xie Daoqing cry and laugh.

The wives and concubines saluted, and Xie Daoqing smiled and said, "Yue'er, if you marry again, the imperial boat will almost be unable to fit." ”

Cheng Yue sat down next to Xie Daoqing, took her hand and said with a smile: "The queen mother's imperial boat is very big, and the sons have to work harder." ”

Concubine Yang Shu saw a strange beauty standing next to Rou Niang, beautiful and radiant, extremely conspicuous among the concubines, compared with herself, Yu Chongrong, Lilac, Ye Yiyi and other concubines, she was not far behind, but she looked nervous. I couldn't help but feel a little pantothenic, and said in my heart: Where did this beauty come from? How is it so good?

Quan Jiu also saw Mrs. Gu, secretly admired in his heart, and said to Cheng Yue: "Who is this lady?" Is it the new concubine of the Metropolitan Governor? ”

Cheng Yue looked at Mrs. Gu and smiled, and said, "She is Mrs. Gu, the mother of Rou Niang, she just arrived in Lin'an yesterday, and the reason why she wants to swim in the lake today is to entertain her at the beginning." ”

Mrs. Gu hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, trembling and said, "The concubine is terrified, and she doesn't dare to alarm the two saints and the nobles. ”

Xie Daoqing put on his glasses and saw Mrs. Gu's appearance clearly, and couldn't help but praise: "Rou Niang is a country and a city, Mrs. Gu is also as beautiful as a fairy, your mother and daughter are really a pair of treasures." ”

Cheng Yue said: "Queen Mother, let's go, let's talk on the boat." ”

Xie Daoqing got up and said, "Okay, let's go." ”

Cheng Yue helped Xie Daoqing, followed by a large number of beauties, strolled to the dock of the villa, and boarded the imperial boat.

Cheng Yue gave an order, and the boat went off the shore and headed for the depths of the West Lake.

The beauty of the scenery of the West Lake has long been famous all over the world, and the literati of the past dynasties have left countless chapters to praise it. However, the West Lake is the West Lake, and the scenery of the Song Dynasty is different from that of later generations. The main reason lies in the three islands in the lake.

Now people who go to visit the West Lake know that there are three islands in the West Lake - Xiaoyingzhou (three pools of the moon), Huxin Pavilion, Ruan Gongdun, but few people know that Xiaoyingzhou and Ruan Gongdun did not exist in the Southern Song Dynasty, these two islands are silted up after the Ming and Qing dynasties, there is actually only one island in the West Lake, and there is a Huxin Temple on it in the Song Dynasty, but there is no Huxin Pavilion.
