Chapter 339: Qinglou proves innocence
"Go to the Qinglou to find ...... Looking for a woman? ”
Rao is Liu Jin is willing to do anything to flatter in order to welcome Zhu Houzhao, but at this moment, when he heard the angry words of the little emperor, he was still dumbfounded, and even stammered a little when he spoke. Seeing Zhu Houzhao's impatience not to let me say it a second time, he hurriedly calmed down, and asked cautiously: "If the emperor has the thought of a lady, there is a ...... in this palace."
"I said, it's going to the Qinglou, not in the palace!"
Zhu Houzhao was full of irritability, and shouted at Liu Jin for a while. At this time, Liu Jin finally didn't dare to be the emperor anymore on a whim, knowing that he must have just been stimulated by the Empress Dowager Zhang in Kunning Palace. However, if Zhu Houzhao had this request at another time, he would definitely do his best to meet it by hiding it from the world, but now that Zhu Houzhao was still in mourning, and the Queen Mother was involved, he didn't dare to be reckless and took people straight to the Qinglou. So, in a flash of light, he almost thought out his head, and finally came up with an idea to pull people into the water.
"Your Majesty, which courtyards are the best in this capital, the slaves and maids really don't know very well. However, if the emperor really wants to go out of the palace to the Qinglou to appreciate and appreciate, he might as well call Xu Xun, he is a foreign official after all, and these doorways should be fine. ”
Liu Jin didn't say that Xu Xun was fine, but as soon as he said Xu Xun, Zhu Houzhao suddenly remembered what Empress Dowager Zhang had just said, and his face turned black all of a sudden. However, thinking about the abomination of this rumor, and then thinking about the words he left to the Empress Dowager Zhang, he instantly took it into account, and immediately nodded fiercely and said, "Okay, call him!" A slap doesn't make a sound, this matter is not my own in the first place, and he has to be responsible for me...... By the way, I asked Ruisheng to go to Xing'anbo Mansion to deliver a letter, and asked him to hurry to the West Fourth Archway to meet me! ”
This 100,000 anxious message reached the Xing'an Mansion, which immediately made Xu Xun like a second monk puzzled - after all, Ruisheng said that the little emperor was angry, but he couldn't think of a reason why Zhu Houzhao was angry - even if Liu Jin really gained a lot in the celebrant eunuch, so he instigated the emperor to attack the celebrant eunuch, then it shouldn't be like this. So, he casually changed his clothes, and the surname Suo hurried out without even bringing an entourage, and as soon as he arrived at the West Fourth Archway, he saw Zhu Houzhao's iron-green face.
"Why is it so slow!"
Zhu Houzhao saw that Ruisheng was going to ask for guilt, so he waved his hand impatiently, and immediately drank Liu Jin and led people to retreat a few steps and guard in all directions, and then looked at Xu Xun and said with an unkind face: "Which Qinglou in this capital is the best, take me with you!" ”
This straightforward sentence was like five thunderbolts, and it suddenly froze Xu Xun in place. He and Zhu Hou have known each other for a day or two, so fresh and not greedy...... These children's problems are all in Zhu Houzhao, but if you want to say that they are lustful, they really haven't been revealed. Therefore, Zhu Houzhao urgently found him to meet him like this, and then opened his mouth and said that he was going to the Qinglou, how could he not be scorched on the outside and tender on the inside? After a while, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked, "What is the emperor asking...... Qinglou? ”
"Nonsense, it's not a green building, is it still a red building, a white building, a purple building?" Zhu Houzhao glared at Xu Xun angrily, and then pointed to his nose and said, "Don't try to fool Sister Shen this time, even if you try to scold Sister Shen, you have to accompany me to the Qinglou today, otherwise you may not be able to tell what kind of unpleasant things someone will say in the future!" You caused all the troubles, if I hadn't used you, others would have poked my backbone? To prove my innocence and your innocence, how can you do it without you! ”
Speaking of which, Xu Xun vaguely touched a little margin, but Zhu Houzhao refused to continue, but urged vigorously, he didn't have time to think about it, so he could only rack his brains to think about what famous fireworks places in this capital are. However, when he caught a glimpse of Liu Jin dodging in the compartment out of the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but secretly scold this old guy for being bloody.
The master has only been in the capital for a year, and the people who have been in the capital for decades don't know where those famous buildings are, and I have to bother with the master, it's really not righteous enough!
Secretly scolding is secretly scolding, but under Zhu Houzhao's intently glare, he had to step up his stomach search. I don't know how long it took, but he finally had an idea, and immediately said hesitantly: "Chen once heard Wang Shikun say that the side of Gouqian Hutong and Yanle Hutong is a famous place for fireworks, and there are many courtyards of all kinds. ”
As soon as the words fell, Liu Jin's voice came from behind: "Your Majesty, those three alleys are where the Jiaofang Division is located, and they are all official records, although there are a lot of moving people, but there are many idle people who come and go, and if they are recognized, we don't care, but you and Lord Xu must be in trouble." ”
"Oh, Father-in-law Liu is an old horse who knows the way, I didn't expect this. I thought that there was always some clean place over there, as it was the famous flower street Willow Lane. Why don't you come up with an idea from Grandpa Liu? ”
Liu Jin saw Xu Xun push the boat down the river and send the burden over, his face couldn't help but stiffen, and when he saw Zhu Houzhao glaring at him again, he hurriedly coughed, and said with a smile on his face: "The slave maid has been to the Jiaofang Division a few times by order, so I have some impressions, as for the others, the slave and maid, it is really a black eye...... Originally, Lao Gu was in the capital, and he could use the West Factory to check, but now there is really no way...... By the way, Your Majesty, why don't you go to Jinyiwei and call that Li Yifeng? He is the head of the Fusi of Beizhen, and it is impossible to hide from him in this large and small Fengyue land in the capital! ”
The landlord is poor for long work, long for short work, and short for helpers. When Li Yifeng really rushed over with Ruisheng, Xu Xun came up with such an idea. Sure enough, Li Yifeng was summoned to see Zhu Houzhao and Xu Xun and a large group of people gathered together, and he thought it was a big deal, but after hearing it, the expression on his face immediately collapsed. But no matter how depressed he was, he really couldn't shirk and said that he didn't know, so he said after a while: "I heard that there are several courtyards in Xicheng Fanzi Hutong, and they are clean and elegant......
Zhu Houzhao was already impatient when he went to a Qinglou for such a long time, and immediately said conclusively: "That's good, that's it, don't pick it, go immediately!" ”
Whether it is Xu Xun or Zhu Houzhao, going to the Qinglou is the first time that the new daughter-in-law has been in the sedan chair. Therefore, when standing at the gate of the courtyard that exuded the atmosphere of a large family and did not have the bustling flow of people as imagined, both of them had a blank expression. And Li Yifeng, who led the way, glanced at the two of them, and already decided that both of them were chicks in his heart, so don't mention the lament in his heart for a while.
Who did he recruit to provoke whom, but he smashed down such an unlucky errand from the sky? If this is spread out, he will take the emperor to visit the Qinglou during the state funeral...... Those bosses have to tear him alive, even Ye Guang can't spare him!
"I've seen Master Li!"
The only difference between this courtyard and the gate of the mansion is that the gate is completely open, unlike the main entrance of the big family, which is always closed, so that there is no room for prying eyes. Only by bypassing the large wall carved with a hundred birds and flowers can you see that there are two columns of girls standing there, although they are all hanging their heads and can't see their heads and faces, but the white jade neck exposed outside can see a little different from the quality of other Qinglou women outside.
Li Yifeng saw Zhu Houzhao coming in all the way and looking around, and when he arrived here, he looked at those girls with great interest, and he had a headache for a while. Just as he let the two of them continue to move forward, a big red figure suddenly flashed next to him.
"The slave family thought that the person who sent the letter was talking, but I didn't expect it to be Master Li."
The woman in red was tall and fair-skinned, she was in her early thirties, with a high bun, wearing coral earrings, a ruby collar, a ruby collar, and a red bracelet, and even the embroidered shoes on the lower head were also red. smiled and said a deep blessing, and she had to flatter Li Yifeng twice, but unexpectedly, the other party waved his hand and pointed to the two young men next to her.
"Hongzhu, I'm here with someone today, you don't have to worry about me, pick the two best, just serve these two sons!"
Hearing this, Na Hongzhu looked at Zhu Houzhao and Xu Xun again in surprise for a moment, and saw that one of them was full of interest, and the other was very reluctant, and his heart suddenly became clear - isn't it which noble son Chick came to the yard to bud? This is not without precedent, although some of those dignitaries and dignitaries have clean girls in their families, but there are also some families that let men know what it is like to be a real person, and there are also some talented and good-looking people from the Qinglou to let them taste it. Only among those people, some of them have sunk into ruin, and some have gone through this level and don't care about women anymore, but it depends on people.
So, she walked slowly to Zhu Houzhao and Xu Xun, and smiled after just a glance: "The two sons come with the slave family." ”
Xu Xun saw that Zhu Houzhao gestured at Liu Jin and the others, followed by Li Yifeng, a large number of people were all left outside, and he could only follow him helplessly. Passing through a weeping flower gate and following the garden path, there is a small two-story building. Although it is not a heavy eaves flying corner, the bells hanging under the eaves make a pleasant sound in the breeze, which is very beautiful. And when they followed Hongzhu into the middle room on the ground floor, they saw Hongzhu arrive at the middle table and took out a jade hammer and knocked on the jade chime on the top, and after a while, there were seven or eight girls coming out of the door on the left and right, some were handsome, some were arrogant, some were lazy, and some were childish.
"This is the best girl in our yard, the two sons might as well choose as much as you like."
