Lihuafang is still far away from the imperial city, and the people who live here are basically some small officials of low grade, and some ordinary people with relatively solid families. Because the whole neighborhood is full of pear blossoms, it is named Pear Blossom Fang. At this time, in front of the two small houses adjacent to each other in the pear blossom workshop, people came and went, and it seemed that the owners of the two families were cleaning the courtyard and arranging the furniture.

Long Xingrong and Niu Tianci were wandering in the courtyard of one of the stockades. The queen arranged it very carefully, and there was no need for Niu Tianci to intervene, and those who were familiar with the road went to work. An old waiter with a wrinkled face was holding the account book, following Long Xingrong and Niu Tianci and chattering about the financial situation of the two families.

The courtyard is not big, and Niu Tianci is alone, so how much property can he have. It doesn't take long for the handover to be complete. There were a lot of keys in the two families, and more than 20 servants and maids were all standing in front of Niu Tianci waiting for a lecture.

"Listen, from now on, you are the descendants of my eldest brother's family. Serve my eldest brother well, and if my eldest brother is satisfied, he will reward you. My eldest brother is not satisfied, so be careful with your skins. ”

Long Xingrong spoke first, but Niu Tianci did not stop him. Because Niu Tianci knew that among the subordinates who rewarded himself and Wang Meng, he didn't know how many of them were eyeliner placed by his side. There is no doubt about this, there will definitely be. Therefore, Niu Tianci asked Long Xingrong to speak first, which was to sound a wake-up call for these people. Let them understand their relationship with the prince, so that the eyeliner among these people will be jealous. In fact, even if Long Xingrong doesn't say it, Niu Tianci himself can find out who the eyeliner is. The seventh level of the Divine Dragon Duel has the ability to mess with people's minds, as long as you find an opportunity, Niu Tianci asks these people one by one, and you can easily do it. Moreover, even if you don't use the Divine Dragon Trick, Niu Tianci is sure to find out by other methods. In the previous life, this was a compulsory course in the dragon group.

After Long Xingrong finished speaking, he stepped aside and motioned for Niu Tianci to say a few words.

"This official is Niu Tianci in the East Palace, and the house next to it is the home of my brother Wang Meng, the captain of Rong. I won't ask too much about the specifics of the house, I will appoint a butler to manage the trivial matters of the two houses. As for who can become this steward, it depends on your performance. This is my home, and I don't want anything bad to happen at home. If there is. The official will be punished heavily, and the sale will be light. I won't talk about the heavy ones, you think for yourself. ”

"This official is from a poor family, and there are slaves in the family, my rule is to reward diligence and punish laziness, and those who are capable are mediocre. Every year, I will choose from among you those who have performed well and served the Lord faithfully, and I will remove them from slavery. These people can still stay in our house for duty if they wish. Unwilling to stay. The official can give you a sum of money to do some small business on your own. So you have to take advantage of the opportunity. Do you understand everything? ”

"Understood. Please rest assured, we will definitely follow the master's instructions, take care of the foyer, and do our duty. ”

These people quickly replied respectfully. Niu Tianci nodded, and temporarily designated two responsible persons, a man and a woman. These two people look like two people, and they are the kind of honest people who look like they are, and they also have children. This kind of person with a family and a business is more at ease, so Niu Tianci temporarily let these two people be responsible. Coincidentally. This temporary housekeeper is actually surnamed Niu, and the big name Niu is lying in the trough. Tianci happily said that he didn't even need to change his name now.

Niu Wo and his wife are good stewards at first glance, and they have just been appointed as temporary housekeepers by Niu Tianci, so they arrange people's errands in a neat way. What is burning fire, chopping wood, guarding the door and feeding the horses, etc., the arrangement is well organized. The daughter-in-law of the slot picked a few maids who were pleasing to the eye, who were responsible for taking care of meals and daily life, and they were also well arranged. Niu Tianci nodded again and again to express satisfaction.

Niu Wogou's son has not yet taken a big name, and he is a very clever boy of six or seven years old. Niu Tianci liked it very much, so he named him Niu Zhong. For this trough is a thousand thanks, and in this era the master's name is a high reward. It shows that the owner has a high opinion of the child. He who is a slave asks nothing else, but only the master is good to himself. If you can enjoy a stable meal, you will be grateful to Dade. This is not comparable with the ******** of modern society, Niu Tianci has been accustomed to it after more than ten years of cultivation.

Xiao Niu Zhong was promoted to Niu Tianci's personal servant on the spot, this child was really smart, and led Niu Tianci and Long Xingrong to start looking at the layout of the room. While walking, he told jokes with small mouths, which made Long Xingrong and Niu Tianci laugh out loud from time to time.

Xiao Niu Zhong pushed open the door of the study and asked Niu Tianci to enter the study to check. Niu Tianci stepped into the study, not wanting to just enter the door with a soft body that happened to crash into Tianci's arms. Tianci hurriedly held the man with his hand, and the moment the two looked at each other, their hearts moved.

The ancients said: It took 500 times to look back at the past life in exchange for the encounter in this life. At this moment, Niu Tianci and the person in front of him are like this. Of course, this person who inadvertently bumped into Tianci's arms is a beautiful woman, and it is also a big beauty wearing the costume of a female official in the inner court. If Yuan Yuan is the national color of peony, then the female official in front of her is Begonia Jiaorui. The beauty of the two people has their own characteristics, and it can be said that they are inseparable. With Niu Tianci's ability to crisscross the flowers and not touch the leaves in his previous life, he can judge at a glance that this female official is definitely older than himself, and in modern terms, this is the best uniform royal sister. That look, that figure, and that feel are definitely the women of women, the best of the best. Niu Tianci was reluctant to let go for a while. Fortunately, the female officer left his arm in time, which avoided embarrassment.

"It's abrupt, please forgive me." Niu Tianci hurriedly let go of the salute.

"Adults don't have to be polite, presumably adults are Jizhou Cangshan Niu's god-given cattle attendants, right? The official court is still gentle. On the orders of the Queen, I arranged a study for the adults, and asked the adults to see if they were satisfied. ”

As the name suggests, even the words are soft and glutinous, and people can't forget them at once. Niu Tianci glanced at the furnishings of the study, and it was really comfortable and elegant, reflecting the extraordinary taste of gentleness in the subtleties. There is a banner hanging on the wall in front of the study, but the content is a sentence from the righteous song made by God, "Heaven and earth have righteousness". It turned out that Fang Wenrouer was directing people to hang banners, and she was looking at it with her back to the door, and it happened that Tianci entered the house at this time, and the two collided together.

"There is Lao Wen Shangyi, but why did you choose this sentence?"

"This official has great respect for the righteous songs of the attendants, and every time he reads them, he can't help but be impressed by the talent and bearing of the adults. So the official made his own decision. If the adult thinks it's inappropriate, the official will ask someone to change it. ”

Gentle children say so, but they don't have the slightest intention of changing people. Niu Tianci understands that this Inner Court Shangyi is actually his own iron fan. As soon as I looked at the word, I knew that this banner was written by Wen Shangyi himself, and the font was neat and neat, and it was very beautiful. It's just that it lacks the spirit of vertical and horizontal. Let people know at a glance that it is the pen body of the girl's house. Niu Tianci knew that if Wen Shangyi really changed this banner, people might secretly feel sad and resentful of themselves. As the saying goes, it is the hardest to accept the grace of beauty, so if you don't change it, you won't change it.

"Thank you so much Wen Shangyi, this banner is very good, there is no need to change it."

Wen Wen'er smiled, and at that moment Tianci felt that a begonia bloomed in front of his eyes. The ripples in the eyes that were as bright as autumn water seemed to drown the godsend. Tianci hurriedly recited the heart-clearing mantra in his heart: "Yuan'er, Yuan'er." Yuan'er ......"

"Ah, Sister Wen, it turned out to be the study you arranged for my eldest brother, why did I say it is so familiar." Long Xingrong walked in at this moment.

"Meet Your Highness."

"Sister Wen doesn't have to be polite. Oh, this is my sworn brother, the East Palace attendant Niu Tianci. It's the author of the righteous song that you want to see every day. What do you think? My brother is handsome, right? ”

Long Xingrong's heartless words made Wen Rouer coquettish and at a loss. didn't dare to look at Niu Tianci again. Niu Tianci looked at Long Xingrong, who was alive and spirited beside him, and said in his heart that you pierced the hearts of other girls. What does that mean?

Tianci doesn't think that Long Xingrong doesn't understand things between men and women? This kid definitely did it on purpose.

"I'm terrified. is only shallow in the next year, and it is not worthy of Wen Shangyi's love. Before Niu Tianci finished his modesty, Long Xingrong took over the topic.

"Sister Wen, my brother has to accompany his father and Gu to study every day, and I am afraid that I can't take care of it in this family. I don't think it's better to trouble Sister Wen to take time to come over and take care of one or two every day? This matter will be told to the queen mother, and Sister Wen does not have to worry. the groove. ~~~~~, where are you going to die, hurry up. ”

The cow appeared in the study and bowed his head to salute: "The little one is here, what does Your Highness command?" ”

"? Where did you just pop up? Belch. Forget it. Listen, from now on, when my eldest brother is away, everything in the house will be arranged by Wen Shangyi. ”

"The little one obeys. That, sir? It's right for the little one to listen to His Highness's orders, right? Niu looked at Niu Tianci with blank eyes.

What else could Niu Tianci say, he took out a large number of keys and handed them to Wen Wen'er. He glanced at Long Xingrong, and said in his heart, whose home is this? I think you're the master here.

"The affairs of the family are Lao Wen Shangyi."

Wen Wen'er's face was crimson, but she took the key without hesitation. Bow to the prince and Niu Tianci Yingying, and beckon the others to go to other things.

Niu Tianci couldn't help but sigh secretly when he looked at the gentle child who was drifting away. Who designed this female official's costume, this guy must be a back shadow controller. This official uniform sets off the gentle slender figure more and more outstandingly. Even if a strong-willed person like Niu Tianci saw this back, he only stopped thinking about Yuan'er after reading Yuan'er countless times. But Long Xingrong couldn't do it, the two of them stared at Wen Wen'er's back and refused to take it back.

"Second brother, second brother? Second brother! I have returned to my soul, and I am gone. ”

"Oh, big brother, do you see the little brother's youth budding? Have you seen the tender gaze of the little brother? ”

"No, I just see your lustful and dirty appearance."

"Big brother~~~, don't you know my fair lady, how good is a gentleman?"

"I saw my fair lady, but the gentleman didn't. All I saw was a fool who was obsessed with his saliva, staring at what other people were looking at. Niu Tianci said teasingly.

"Big brother~~~~. Little brother, little brother, isn't this a spring heart, isn't this normal? ”

"Normal, too normal. It's not normal if you don't move. Second brother, you won't treat your eldest brother's home as a tryst place for your sister and brother, right? ”

"Big brother, Sister Wen is a good woman, but she is not what you think. When I was a child, Sister Wen was often with me. So I think the best woman should be like Sister Wen. ”

"This is more difficult, Your Majesty and the Empress will not agree to you."

"I know that my concubine must be chosen by my father and queen mother, and even the side concubine may not be able to make my own decisions. So Sister Wen can only be my sister, alas. However, I can help her find a good home. So that she can stay with the person she likes for the rest of her life. ”

"Oh? Who is that man? ”

"You."

Niu Tianci was speechless. He really wanted to dig out Long Xingrong's head and see what was inside.

"Brother Xian, the eldest brother is a man with a wife."

"What's the matter. Which of the high-ranking officials of Dayan is not a three-wife and four concubines. Although the younger brother didn't see the appearance of his sister-in-law, he also heard the eldest brother talk about it, and the sister-in-law is definitely a good match with the eldest brother. But big brother, you will be a character in and out of the picture in the future, and then you will only be alone and lonely behind you, how discordant it is. It's better to take down Sister Wen now. When the time comes, you will sit on your left and right and enjoy the blessings of all people, isn't it beautiful? ”

"This, this matter can't be forced, let's wait for the future."

"Big brother. With Sister Wen's appearance, character and talent, everything is first-class. That's the person who is favored by my mother's heart, maybe one day she will marry a talented man in the court, and then you will regret it too late. ”

"This, the marriage matter, still needs the parents to decide. Let's talk about this matter when we have time to tell my father and mother. Niu Tianci had no choice but to use this reason to shirk.

Long Xingrong knew that this matter could not be forced. Besides, he is really reluctant to marry Gentle's son now. It's like a sister and brother with deep feelings, no matter how usual it is, once the sister is about to get married, the younger brother will always feel awkward. Long Xingrong's mind is to hope that Wen Rou'er can have a good home, and instead of cheapening others, it is better to cheapen his sworn brother. Isn't that a kiss on a kiss? But now it seems that Niu Tianci is not too interested in Gentle Child, but fortunately, Niu Tianci did not refuse, take your time. Long Xingrong believes that as long as the two of them have more contact. Over time, it will be loved.

"Big brother, second brother. Your Majesty is looking for you to go back to the East Palace. ”

Wang Meng ran in in a hurry, still carrying Niu Zhong in his hand. This kid doesn't know Wang Meng yet. stopped Wang Meng and didn't let him in, so Wang Meng had to run in with him.

"Big brother and second brother, let's go back quickly. Wow, our house is beautiful. Hey, big brother, just now I saw a beautiful woman wearing an official uniform, which is so beautiful. What does she do? ”

"That's Wen Shangyi in the Queen's Palace, don't talk nonsense in the future."

"Oh, it's hard to say anything else in this palace, it's just that there are many beautiful women. Big brother, hurry up and bring your sister-in-law. Otherwise, I think you won't be able to hold it anymore. ”

Long Xingrong laughed, Niu Tianci couldn't cry or laugh, patted Wang Meng's head and said, "Which eye do you see that the eldest brother can't hold it?" If you want to marry Tian Cui into the door as soon as possible, just say it. Okay, don't worry about that. Your sister-in-law has gone to Qingzhou to pick up Tian Cui, are you relieved now? ”

Wang Meng touched his head and smirked. To be honest, he misses Tian Cui, especially especially if he wants to. Especially when I helped the palace maids dry their clothes today, I thought even more.

On the way back to the East Palace, Wang Meng kept asking Tianci: "Big brother, what does my sister-in-law look like?" Don't be scared by my small family. ”

"You'll know when the time comes. Let's go, Your Majesty is in a hurry. ”

The servants hurried back. After entering the imperial city, the road was unimpeded, and he drove his horse directly into the East Palace. Emperor Su Zheng saw three fast horses running to the front of the study from a distance, and saw the vigorous spirit of the people on the horses one by one, and he was envious and emotional in his heart. waved to the three of them again and again, at this moment, Emperor Suzheng no longer looked like an emperor, he was more like a father waiting for his children to return from school.

The atmosphere of the banquet in the East Palace was very harmonious, and Emperor Suzheng drank too much again, and was finally carried back to Jiaofang Palace by Gao Ping. The queen knew at first sight that she must have drunk too much in the East Palace, so she didn't blame Gao Ping too much. The relationship between Emperor Suzheng and the crown prince is harmonious, and the queen is also happy to see it, so naturally she will not blame.

Gao Ping returned to his residence, closed the doors and windows, and then went to a secret room to lock the door, and he carefully took out a tablet and placed it in the middle of the table to burn incense and worship.

"Sister Cao, your son is still alive. has grown up, and now he is in the East Palace. This is providential. Sister Cao can rest assured, with Gao Ping here, she will not let that child suffer the slightest grievance. One day, Gao Pingding will let their father and son recognize each other. At that time, Gao Ping went to his sister's mausoleum to report the good news, in order to comfort his sister's spirit in the sky, and to repay his sister's life-saving grace. ”

Gao Ping knelt on the ground and prayed silently with tears in his eyes. The cigarette smoke is swirling, and the dim candlelight is reflected on the tablet, and the words on the tablet are reflected as bright as darkness, and the tablet is written "the position of the late imperial concubine Cao". (To be continued.) )
