Chapter 306: An Unfinished Promise
The celebration of the Lantern Festival has finally kicked off.
Jiangning County has become the most lively place in Yingtianfu for a while, a large number of people come here, literati and scholars, including many businessmen, of course, there are also a lot of gentlemen.
Su Tiancheng didn't know until later that in order to welcome the Lantern Festival celebration in Jiangning County, the Qinglou of Qinhuai River was also fully prepared, and the Qinglou even prepared on its own to carry out a competition of what Oiran, of course, it would attract many young talents, and to be able to show their talents in such a place and win the favor of girls, at least it could greatly satisfy vanity.
On the fifteenth day of the first month, Wan Chenggui came to report, talking about the election of the Oiran in the Qinglou, the implication is that Su Tiancheng wants to support it, that is, he can't participate, and he also wants the officials of the county government to support it.
Su Tiancheng's head is big, he never thought that Qinglou would also come here to join in the fun, the Qinhuai River flows through Jiangning County, although most of the Qinglou are in Shangyuan County, but the owner of the Qinglou, after all, is a businessman, and he can't stop it if he takes a fancy to such a business opportunity.
Besides, the ceremony at the beginning of the celebration, the officials of the county government, including Sun Chengzong and others from the Zhongxing Society, all participated, and even Fan Jingwen, the secretary of the military department, Qin Sande, the eunuch of the town guard, Zhang Taining, the garrison minister, Yin Wang Daozhi and others of Yingtianfu, all came to cheer.
Such a fragrant thing, Su Tiancheng has no way to refuse, his real purpose, no one knows the way, judging from the current situation, the celebration of the Lantern Festival will definitely be able to achieve significant results, not to mention Ying Tianfu and Nanzhili, it is estimated that after more than ten days of celebrations, the entire south. I know Jiangning County.
But after all, he has already married and his original wife is still a member of the royal family, at such a time, it is not easy to explain how to go to the Qinglou blatantly, and. He also had to take into account Liu Ruye's feelings.
Since arriving at Su Tiancheng's side, Liu Rushi has cut off all relations with Qinglou, and even thought about changing his name.
After thinking about it again, Su Tiancheng still decided not to go in person, and entrusted Yan Zizhang to participate in many activities of the Qinglou on behalf of the county government.
Back to the backyard of the county office. Zhu Xianxin and Mo Wenjuan are here.
In the past few days in Jiangning County, Mo Wenjuan was almost always in the backyard, with Zhu Xianxin.
"Husband, the concubine heard that President Wan came just now, is there something wrong?"
Chunping and Liu Ru were both in the house, looking at the women in the room, Su Tiancheng was a little weak-hearted.
"It's not much of a deal. It's all about some of the things about the Lantern Festival celebrations. ”
A strange smile appeared on Mo Wenjuan's face.
Zhu Xianxin's face. Showing a look of anger, Su Tiancheng was even more empty-hearted, it was not that he didn't go to the Qinglou, it was mainly the celebration of the Qinglou, he didn't know what to say in advance, but people definitely thought. He is a man of knowledge.
"The husband doesn't tell the truth, Sister Mo knows the way, and the concubine doesn't know the way."
Mo Wenjuan's face turned a little red all of a sudden, and Wan Chenggui found Lan Qiaozheng and talked about the election of the Oiran in the Qinglou. And invited Lan Qiao to participate, Mo Wenjuan came by the way to ask, to see if Zhu Xianxin knew, who knew that Zhu Xianxin had no mouth to hide, and said it so quickly.
Su Tiancheng looked at Mo Wenjuan and sighed helplessly.
"There really isn't much of a deal, that is, the Qinglou of Qinhuai River, organized, saying that it is going to hold a competition to elect an Oiran, just now Boss Wan came to invite me to participate, this Qinglou of Qinhuai River is also, and I don't report it in advance, the Lantern Festival celebration in Jiangning County is organized in a unified manner, I originally thought that it was not appropriate for them to do this, but people also wanted to show it, and I couldn't refuse, besides, so many literati and ink writers gathered in Jiangning County, and the boss of the Qinglou also wanted to make money, such an opportunity is very goodIf the county government disagrees, it will seem to have no bearing. ”
"Husband, really don't know the way?"
"Hey, what am I lying to you doing, I really don't know what to do, it has been arranged just now, Lord Yan Zizhang represents the county government to participate in their Oiran selection activities, however, Lord Yan to participate, it is not so simple, I have already told Lord Yan, go empty-handed, at least bring some silver back."
"Husband, don't you want to go?"
Su Tiancheng blinked and looked at Zhu Xianxin.
"Madam, do you still want me to participate?"
"Yes, the concubine also thought, follow her husband and go to Qinhuai River to have a look, she has long heard of Qinhuai River's reputation, but she has never seen it, what a good opportunity this time."
"No, no, no, I can't take you there, these days, I have a lot of things, and the affairs of Jiangning Camp are too busy, where is the time."
Zhu Xianxin had a smile on her face.
"Husband, you asked Lord Yan to participate in someone's contest to elect an Oiran, why did Lord Yan bring back the silver."
"It's not simple, the county government has spent so much effort to organize the celebration of the Lantern Festival, these days, the people who come to Jiangning County, tens of thousands, when people come, they all have silver in their pockets, and they don't bring pots and pans, they always have to use silver, the county government works hard and can't get anything, so what is the purpose of organizing such a celebration."
When Su Tiancheng said this, the women in the room laughed.
"Husband, too, Lord Yan has just come to Jiangning County, so he will let the family earn money."
"Madam, what do you mean, I'm going."
"Hmph, the concubine doesn't mean that."
"That's right, Madame doesn't look at it, Lord Yan is suave, on behalf of the county government, when he arrives at the Qinhuai River, who dares not to buy it."
Mo Wenjuan looked at Su Tiancheng on the side, and there was a strange look in her eyes.
In her opinion, Su Tiancheng is such a handsome man, he must be majestic at home, he must be talented, he must have good looks, and he is young, he is the court official of the sixth grade, such a man, there are indeed not many, at least he has the capital to show off. I can't imagine that Su Tiancheng is so honest at home, a small thing has to be explained, and it is sincerely made to explain, I really don't know this Su Tiancheng, as well as these excellent qualities.
As for Zhu Xianxin going to the Qinhuai River, it is true, but he just followed her, Lan Qiaozheng has already accepted the invitation, not only Lan Qiaozheng, but also Lord Huang Daozhou will go to the Qinhuai River.
When Su Tiancheng came to the wing, Liu Ru followed in.
"Liu Yin, I didn't mean to hide today's events from you."
"Don't say that, husband, concubines are all knowledgeable."
Zhu Xianxin has already recognized her and Wang Furong, so at home, her title has also changed.
"Well, if you want to go, you can also go and see, the past, don't think so much, here, no one can despise you."
There was already a mist in Liu Ruye's eyes.
"Husband, the concubine understands, everyone is very good to the concubine, in fact, the matter of Qinhuaihe's election of the Oiran, the concubine has long known the way, and has been hesitating, whether to inform the husband."
"Oh, there's such a thing."
"It's Gu Hengboto, who brought a letter to the concubine."
Su Tiancheng's body shook slightly, and he already understood the strangeness inside.
This is a promise that people must have been waiting for.
"Liu Yin, Gu Hengbo used to be your sister, the relationship between you is extraordinary, Gu Hengbo's matter, what do you think I should do."
"The concubine knows the way, the husband is very embarrassed, on one side is the lady, and on the other side is Gu Hengbo."
"Yes, I not only have to take into account Zhu Xianxin's feelings, but also your feelings."
"Husband, the concubine really doesn't know what Lu Dao says, I just think that the days of laughing in Qinglou are so unbearable, the sisters and sisters of Qinglou, once they get old, I really don't know what to do with Lu Dao."
"I already understand what you mean."
After a slight pause, Su Tiancheng suddenly thought of something.
"Liu Yin, what do you mean, do you mean that Gu Hengbo is going to participate in this competition to elect an oiran?"
Liu nodded and did not speak.
"So that's the case, Gu Hengbo didn't think that I would definitely go to participate in the Oiran Contest held in Qinhuai River this time, so I asked someone to bring you a letter."
"The husband has already said just now, there is no time, the concubine thinks, the husband should not go, those places, there are three religions and nine streams, everyone has them."
Su Tiancheng looked at Liu Ruis and smiled bitterly, there are some things that he can't say.
When I went to the Qinhuai River, there was also some meaning of hunting, after all, in this world, as long as it is a man, there is a desire to prove, some men, do not show it, that is because there is no opportunity, there is no platform to show, once there is such a space, everyone wants to prove themselves, the simplest and most complicated thing is to conquer women, of course, this is only one aspect, there is a good saying, men rely on ability to conquer the world, women by surrendering men to conquer the world.
Su Tiancheng has a lot of things, he doesn't have too much desire for women, I don't know why Lu Dao has such thoughts, he has been to Jiangning County for almost two years, but the number of times he has been to Qinhuai River is only a handful, this may also be that he is under too much pressure and needs to do too much, and he has to fight for himself when he travels to such an era.
But in the face of Gu Hengbo, he couldn't stop his heart, that was a promise of his, if a man in this era deceives a woman, especially a weak woman, no matter what great achievements he establishes, he will feel guilty in his heart.
It seems that Gu Hengbo's matter, he must think of a good way to solve it properly. (To be continued.) )
