Chapter Seventy-Two: Cousin

(The results of this book are a bit speechless at the moment, so read and cherish it.) )

Wang Yuan stretched out his hand and took out dozens of big coins from his arms and stuffed them into his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I'm tired of teaching you." Can I go in? ”

The servant thanked him repeatedly, stretched out his hand and gestured, "Come in, please come in." ”

Wang Yuan nodded and walked into the mansion, and Gongsun Lan and Li Xin'er behind him were about to follow in, but the servant smiled and said, "Prince Wang, are these two your friends?" According to the rules of the house, outsiders are not allowed to enter the house. ”

Wang Yuan turned his head and said, "They are not outsiders, one is my wife, and the other is my cousin." ”

Li Xin'er glanced at Gongsun Lan, and saw that Gongsun Lan had anger in her eyes, so she hurriedly reached out to hold Gongsun Lan's arm to prevent her from hurting people because of Wang Yuan's behavior of admitting her cousin without consultation.

The servant said, "I see, but even so, they are not allowed to enter, and they must get permission from the steward." ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "I heard it right, my Wang Yuan's cousin and insiders can't enter the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion?" Who gave this order? ”

The servant smiled and said: "It's not anyone's order, this is the rule of the house, this is the Liu steward personally explained, this rule was set more than ten days ago, if anyone breaks it, he will have to be a bastard." Childe is considerate of the villain, otherwise the villain will lose his job. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said: "I see, then I bother you to call Steward Liu, and I will tell him no in person." ”

The servant hurriedly said: "The villain also thinks so, you wait for a while, and the villain will go to find the willow steward." ”

The servants walked towards the courtyard inside the gate after repeated accusations, and suddenly heard someone shouting angrily after the wall under the steps: "Fool, you don't let Wang Gongzi's family enter the mansion, what can you do, you actually stop Wang Gongzi and his family at the door, it is really unreasonable." Zhao Dagou, you are hopelessly stupid, go to the account to settle the salary immediately, you are not suitable to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion on an errand. ”

Wang Yuan heard the sound and looked towards the side of the wall, only to see Liu Xunzhi's figure hurriedly appear on the steps on the right side of the wall, walking quickly with an anxious face.

The servant Zhao Dagou froze in place, looking at Liu Xunzhi's angry face in horror, and his face was at a loss. Liu Xun scolded to himself: "Don't you go to roll the cover?" Waiting for the old man to ask someone to beat the house with a big stick? ”

Zhao Dagou's face was like earth, and he didn't know what to do, Wang Yuan smiled when he saw this: "Why should Mr. Liu embarrass him, he also acts according to the rules, and those who abide by the rules should not be punished, spare him." ”

Liu Xunzhi was just making a show to Wang Yuan, and when he heard the words, he scolded: "If it weren't for Wang Gongzi to speak for you today, I wouldn't spare you." Why don't you kowtow to Wang Gongzi and thank you? ”

The servant hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Wang Yuan, and said in a continuous voice: "Zhao Dagou gave birth to a pair of dog eyes, and Lord Wang Gongzi spared the villain a lot, and the villain thanked you here." ”

Wang Yuan stopped him with a smile and said, "You're welcome, this matter is over, it's none of your business." ”

Zhao Dagou retreated with a thousand thanks, and Liu Xunzhi turned his head to Wang Yuan, and said with a face half puzzled and half complaining: "Erlang, why did you leave the house without saying hello?" You know what? The people in the mansion are about to die, Zuo Xiang was annoyed all night last night, and ordered the people in the mansion to go out to find you, so worried. ”

Wang Yuan was surprised: "What is there to worry about?" I'm not a three-year-old child, and I'm afraid that I won't be abducted by traffickers? ”

Liu Xun stomped his feet and said: "You are understating, last night there was a disturbance in several streets in the south, and the Wuhou people were arresting people on the streets all night, and we were all worried that something happened to you." ”

Wang Yuan's heart moved, and he smiled: "Why did Wuhou arrest people, Zuo Xiang and Mr. Liu were worried about me, do you think that I am the target of Wuhou's arrest?" I don't know what crime I have committed, and I need you to worry about being captured by Wuhou for me. ”

Liu Xun coughed a few times, realizing that he had missed his mouth, and said in a disguise: "Erlang, you think too much, we are worried about the indiscriminate use of those who are soldiers, and besides, you are now famous in Chang'an City, and we are also worried that you will not be able to get out if you are recognized." Although the security of Chang'an City is good, there are many evildoers, who are just worried about your safety. ”

Wang Yuan knew that it was impossible for Liu Xunzhi to tell him the real reason, so he sighed secretly in his heart and said with a smile: "I see, I have bothered to teach Zuo Xiang and all the gentlemen." I asked to leave the house for several days, but the left minister did not have time to give a reply, so I had to go out of the house to do some personal affairs. No, the inside-in-law went to my cousin's house for nearly a month, and if I don't pick it up again, wouldn't it be eye-catching? I know that I can't get out, and I don't know that I forgot about my wife who is rich and rich, hahaha. ”

Liu Xunzhi suddenly laughed and said, "So it's because of this? It's the old man who is negligent, and he should have taken over Erlang's family a long time ago, so these two ladies are Erlang's family? ”

Liu Xun smiled directly at the two veiled women who were standing silently on the side.

Wang Yuan smiled and nodded: "Exactly, the one on the left is my inside-in-law, and this one is mine...... Cousin. ”

Wang Yuan couldn't help but shudder when he saw that Gongsun Lan's eyes were like two sharp blades, as if they were about to cut themselves.

Liu Xun bowed his hand to the two girls, Li Xin'er returned the salute, but Gongsun Lan snorted but didn't move. Liu Xunzhi was slightly embarrassed, looked at Wang Yuan, Wang Yuan leaned over and said in his ear: "My cousin is a little unhappy, she was turned away just now, and the weather is cold, so she is in a bad mood." ”

Liu Xun nodded straight and said, "I see, I see." ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, can I take them to the residence to settle down first?" Now that the hour has not come, you said that Zuo Xiang has not slept all night, it is not good for me to disturb at this time, if you wait for Zuo Xiang to rest later, I will go to confess. ”

Liu Xun hurriedly said: "Okay, Erlang will go and settle down first." I'll report to Zuo Xiang and reassure him. Anyway, Zuo Xiang also fell asleep just now, and it is indeed inconvenient to disturb him to rest at this moment. Originally, Zuo Xiang was indeed a little annoyed last night, but now that Erlang has returned unharmed, and he left the house to pick up his family, I believe that Zuo Xiang will not blame. Speaking of which, it's all our fault, and we should have brought the family for Erlang a long time ago. ”

Wang Yuan didn't want to listen to his false verbosity, smiled and arched his hand, and took Li Xin'er and Sun Lan to their own residence to settle down.

After Liu Xun stood on the steps inside the door and watched the figures of Wang Yuan and the others leave, he sighed and turned around, stretched out his hand to beckon the two servants guarding the door to come over and asked in a low voice, "When Wang Gongzi comes, can there be any suspicious people behind him?" ”

"I didn't ...... Didn't see it. "I was dozing off just now, so naturally I didn't see any suspicious people.

Liu Xun nodded straight and said, "The two of you go to Jingzhao Mansion to find Liang Sigui Liang and tell him to take someone back to the house, you don't need to guard in the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion, just say that Wang Gongzi has returned to the house safely." ”

The two servants hurriedly agreed to go out of the mansion, and Liu Xun breathed a sigh of relief. Standing in the empty courtyard and thinking in his heart: "There was so much movement last night, wasn't it for him?" This is impossible, the inquiry is clear, it is true that Jin Wuwei is guarding the intersection of the surrounding places, who is it if he is not ordered by Li Linfu? actually came back unharmed, but it was lucky. That's it, I don't want to be cranky, go to report to the left minister, everything is decided by the left minister, all in all, it is a blessing and a great life to be able to come back, and it is always a good thing. ”

……

Returning to his own mansion on the west side of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, Wang Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, there was no need to worry about anything else for the time being, the three of them had barely closed their eyes since last night, and the three of them were very tired. Wang Yuan wanted to sit and wait for time to meet Li Shizhi to explain, but he was very disgusted with Li Shizhi in his heart, and he didn't want to take the initiative to see him at all, so he decided that from now on, if Li Shizhi didn't take the initiative to ask him to see him, he would keep pretending to be stupid, so as not to listen to his false words and lose his appetite.

Qingdou'er, the maidservant girl in the residence, has disappeared without a trace, and it is estimated that she was transferred from her post after failing to complete the political task of 'serving' Wang Yuan. She was not a real maid doing rough work, and Wang Yuan was not interested in her, so it was useless to stay here. So the green beans were replaced by two old broad beans that couldn't bite, and there were two more serving mothers-in-law in their fifties in the house.

Although it is two old women, but the work is still very clever, it can be seen that it is the two people who have been selected, after the three come back, the two mothers-in-law do not wait for the order to cook porridge and boil water, and the other makes the bed to clean. By the time the three of them began to eat hot porridge and rice, the beds in the two rooms were also made.

The hot porridge and rice were very comfortable to drink, Wang Yuan drank very sweetly, and occasionally looked up and found that Gongsun Lan was staring at him, so he asked with a smile: "Why don't you eat it?" Not to your liking? ”

Gongsun Lan said coldly: "Who did you just say that I am?" ”

Wang Yuan smacked his lips and said: "Don't care about these details, it's just to hide your identity, do I want to say that you are the first sword dance in the Tang Dynasty, and the world hears it like thunder?" ”

Gongsun Lan said: "Flim tongue, you are Xin'er's husband, I am your elder, you cover it up like this, isn't it messing up the generation?" ”

Wang Yuan said: "Your name is Xin'er, with your appearance, it looks like you are only a few years older than us, and it is more appropriate to call your sister." With the respect I have for you in my heart, it is okay to call you mother-in-law, but in that case, it makes people feel suspicious. ”

Li Xin'er couldn't hold back any longer, and squirted a mouthful of hot porridge everywhere with a snort. Gongsun Lan looked at Wang Yuan coldly for a long time, and finally said helplessly: "I thought you were a scholar with a full stomach, and what you said was crooked. ”

Wang Yuan pointed to the two mothers-in-law who were busy in the courtyard and said: "Don't get entangled in these things, so as not to be noticed by them, these people are Li Shizhi's people, do you know if they are eyeliner?" Besides, I've already said you're my cousin, do you want to change your mind again? ”

Gongsun Lan snorted coldly and ignored him no longer.

Wang Yuanwu confessed to Li Xin'er and said: "Twelve mothers must remember, you must call your sister in front of others, don't call you a master if you leak your mouth, otherwise you won't be a gang." ”

Li Xin'er was even more happy, and before she could say a word to Gongsun Lan, her sister was frightened back by the anger on Gongsun Lan's face.

Wang Yuan was secretly proud in his heart, although he didn't know the specific age of Gongsun Lan, but it was obviously not very big, and he called his predecessors every day It was really a loss, and now he finally forcibly pulled this generation down, and in the future, he could justifiably match Gongsun Lan's sister and brother, and he got a little psychological satisfaction.

"I haven't closed my eyes all night, let's go and rest for a while, I'll go sleep for a while, maybe Li Shizhi will talk to me for a while, I want to raise some energy to deal with him." Twelve Niang...... Table...... Sister...... You should also go to sleep, this is your own home, we are all our own people, we are often courteous at home, and we don't have to be polite, let's take care of ourselves. ”
