The case was thoroughly ordered by the emperor, and the final result was obvious.
As a privileged nobleman with the Marquis of Muwu, he just cut off the head of a groom and finished the job.
Jiang Long couldn't help but think.
Could it be that the emperor is avenging the robbed woman?
Is it simply secretly designed by the emperor, and the Marquis of Mu Wu, who fell, was half unsuccessful?
The emperor has the intention to welcome Mrs. Diexiang into the palace, this Muwu Marquis actually dares to intervene, I have to say that this person is really bold.
It stands to reason that as long as he is favored by the emperor, even if he can't enter the palace for various reasons, no one will dare to marry.
Only when the emperor has rested his mind, more than ten years, or even decades, can a woman marry smoothly.
Of course, the woman was already old at that time.
However, this is very appropriate to Chai Shirong's introduction to Mu Wuhou.
Relying on a little ability, he thinks very highly of himself, is arrogant, has no one in his eyes, and doesn't know how many bowls of dry rice he eats!
Then he was ...... by the emperor
Jiang Long guessed in his heart, but it was also possible that he was framed by others, after all, according to Chai Shirong, Mu Wuhou had many opponents, and there were even more people who looked at him unpleasantly.
Before the Marquis of Mu Wu became famous, he first took action to get rid of this threat.
It's no wonder that Chai Shirong regrets that with the beauty of Mrs. Diexiang, she should have been held in the palm of her hand by a man as a treasure.
But now her husband is paralyzed in bed.
Jiang Long had only met Mrs. Diexiang once in the apricot forest before, and although he felt that Mrs. Diexiang's beauty was amazing enough, he didn't pay attention to it seriously.
Now that I think about it, I understand that Mrs. Diexiang Weishenme will sigh that her youth is no longer there.
Such a beautiful woman, the most beautiful haode youth in her life, was spent by a half-paralyzed man with her.
Whoever it is, you will be unwilling, right?
Moreover, Mrs. Diexiang's thin shoulders still have to provoke the beams of the Muwu Marquis Mansion.
Shameful and fateful!
For Mrs. Diexiang, Jiang Long suddenly felt a touch of pity.
After Chai Shirong sighed, he became excited again.
It is too exciting to be invited by Mrs. Diexiang, and even to stay in the Muwuhou Mansion and kiss Fangze.
Although this opportunity is not his.
Jiang Long listened to Chai Shirong's endless talk, some praised Mrs. Diexiang, and some taught him how to win Mrs. Diexiang's heart when he rose.
"Let's go to the street and buy new clothes."
Jiang Long is not picky about dressing, and there are a lot of clothes sewn for him by the house, and he can't wear them all, but Chai Shirong feels that his clothes are not trendy enough.
"It's raining heavily." Jiang Long waved his hand and didn't go.
"No, we have to dress up today, that's Mrs. Diexiang!"
Chai Shirong grabbed Jiang Long's hand and dragged him outside the door, "If you can kiss the beauty of Mrs. Diexiang, and go out to show off for your brother, you will also have face." ”
"You!" Jiang Long was speechless, and he didn't know what to say about Chai Shirong.
In the end, Jiang Long was still pulled into the rain by Chai Shirong, of course, his own buddy ran forward to hold an umbrella for the two.
At this time, it was close to noon, Chai Shirong pulled Jiang Long around the street and bought clothes for Jiang Long.
Lunch was also eaten outside, and by the time the two returned to the printing house, it was already late in the evening.
In the room, Chai Shirong asked Jiang Long to change into a new black shirt.
Up and down, he looked at it carefully, and asked Jiang Long to change it to a dark green one.
Today, under Chai Shirong's strong request, he bought eight new clothes for Jiang Long.
Jiang Long changed his clothes, speechless in his heart.
This Chai Shirong is also too enthusiastic.
As a married woman, Mrs. Diexiang was still paralyzed on the bed, so it was naturally impossible to invite Jiang Long to Muwuhou's Mansion at night, so when the sun rose the next day, Jiang Long rode on his horse, took Tudu and several guards, and slowly walked in the direction of Muwuhou's Mansion.
Chai Shirong stood in front of the printing house, his face full of envy.
Jiang Long was wearing a white robe with a light green pattern today.
Chai Shirong said that this shirt is the most suitable for him and the most handsome.
Because his body has recovered recently, and he is constantly drinking tonics, Jiang Long's spirit is very good now, his complexion is healthy, his facial features were originally thin, but now he is a little rounder, and under the background of gorgeous clothes, he is actually quite a bit of a young man's grace and high spirits.
Yesterday it rained heavily for most of the day, alleviating the drought since the beginning of spring, and there are still water stains in some potholes on the street.
The bustling main roads of the capital are paved with marble, so that there is no dirt and is washed clean by the rain.
The horse's hooves trampled lightly on it, making a sound of triviality.
After a pillar of incense, Jiang Long came to the gate of Muwuhou's mansion.
Subconsciously raised his head and carefully looked at the gate of Muwuhou Mansion, giving people the feeling that although it was still magnificent, it was a little old and dilapidated.
The bodies of the two stone lions in front of the door, because they have been beaten by wind and rain for many years, now have mottled traces of peeling.
His own guards came forward with their name tags to show the gatekeeper.
The porter had already been instructed to respectfully invite Jiang Long in.
A young maid took Jiang Long and walked straight to the backyard of the Muwu Marquis Mansion.
As Jiang Long walked, he looked around at the scenery in the Muwu Marquis' Mansion.
Subsequently, compared with Jingfu, Muwuhou Mansion is too far behind.
The last time I went back to the mansion to talk with Mrs. Jing, I learned that the Jing Mansion has been inherited for hundreds of years, and it was first built in accordance with the regulations of the palace.
This made Jiang Long puzzled, since the founding of the Great Qi Dynasty, there has been no king with a different surname.
So how could Jingfu be built according to the regulations of the palace?
Moreover, since it was built according to the standards of the palace, then Jingjia Weishenme is just a Hou Mansion?
Mrs. Jing didn't seem to know much about this.
Jiang Long didn't ask much at that time.
Along the way, Jiang Long thought a lot, and after a while, he came to the backyard of the Muwu Marquis's Mansion.
Generally, visitors should be in the main hall of the front yard.
However, the Muwuhou Mansion is more special, and the only male owner in the family is paralyzed on the hospital bed.
And Mrs. Diexiang's reputation is not very good, so whether it is to meet guests in the main hall of the front yard or in the backyard, it is useless.
When I came to a small courtyard in the backyard, Mrs. Diexiang was already standing in front of the door of the main hall of the small courtyard and waiting.
Seeing Jiang Long, Mrs. Diexiang immediately moved the lotus step lightly, and greeted her with two maid rings, with a charming smile blooming on her gorgeous face, and came to the front and bowed, "Jing Gongzi is willing to appreciate his face and come to our mansion as a guest, and the Muwu Marquis Mansion is full of glory!" ”
Jiang Long smiled faintly and gave a hand, "Madam is polite." ”
Even though the Marquis Muwu's Mansion is still the Mansion of the Marquis, and the Jing family has been deprived of the title, Jiang Long is not stage frightened at all.
"I don't know why, since the last time I was in the apricot forest, Jing Gongzi guessed the concubine's heart, and the concubine felt that Jing Gongzi had some heart, and then there was no excuse to invite Jing Gongzi to come to the door, until Jing Gongzi wrote two volumes of words, and the concubine was cheeky to invite Jing Gongzi into the house." Mrs. Diexiang raised her right hand and said softly while inviting Jiang Long into the hall.
Mrs. Diexiang actually claimed to be a concubine in front of Jiang Long.
You know, women usually use this name only in front of their own men.
On weekdays, women with status will not meet male guests, and they will not use this self-title when they do, and those who have no identity generally use words such as me and me.
“haha。” Jiang Long suddenly said, "Speaking of the last time I was in the apricot forest, I also want to thank Madame." ”
"Is it thanks to the concubine for helping the son win a thousand taels of gold and a thousand taels of silver?" Mrs. Diexiang chuckled, and in an instant, a hundred flowers bloomed.
Even if Jiang Long was firm-minded, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Jing Gongzi won't just say it as a thank you, right? This time I came to the concubine's house as a guest, did I bring any valuable gifts? If the etiquette is too light, the concubine body will not be followed here. Speaking of zuihou, Mrs. Diexiang also twisted her thin waist delicately.
"As a big beauty, you can't talk about money with your mouth closed, otherwise you will lose points." Jiang Long shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands.
"Minus?" Lady Butterfly blinked in confusion.
"Men evaluate a woman's appearance, who is more beautiful, and will give a score based on the woman's facial features, figure, skin color, cultivation, etc." In front of beauties like Mrs. Diexiang, Jiang Long will not be stunned at all, and talk eloquently.
Mrs. Diexiang looked shyly when she heard this, but she obviously didn't get angry, "Childe is too ...... actually said this in front of the concubine! ”
"Haha, don't you wonder how many points you can score, ma'am?"
"Then, according to Jing Gongzi, how many points can the concubine get?" Madame Diexiang hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help the curiosity in her heart and asked.
"If you score a hundred out of 100, Madame can get ......," Jiang Long said this, and his words changed, "I won't tell you for the time being." ”
Laughing, it was the threshold of the living room.
"Nasty!" Mrs. Diexiang, who was aroused by her interest, stomped her little foot sullenly before raising her leg to follow.
Walking into the living room and sitting down, Mrs. Diexiang asked Yahuan to serve tea, and suddenly sighed softly, "How can the concubine not know how to talk about money with her mouth open and closed, too shili, and lose her grace?" But helplessly, there are dozens of people up and down in the house, who want to dress and eat...... There are many places to spend money, and if the concubine is not like this, do you want to watch the servants in the house starve to death? ”
When Jiang Long heard this, he just chuckled.
Seeing Jiang Long's expression was flat and he drank the tea, and he didn't speak, Mrs. Diexiang couldn't help but feel depressed.
The young man in front of him is really good.
In front of him, he can still hold it so steadily.
In the past, when other men faced her, no matter whether things were done or not, their faces would always show a more or less fascinated look.
Next, Mrs. Diexiang used words to protect, and even flattered and secretly teased.
But Jiang Long sat there steadily.
Mrs. Diexiang was helpless, and after taking a long breath, she said the purpose of inviting Jiang Long to the mansion this time, "I heard that Gongzi Jing and the Chengguo Mansion have joined forces, and the business of selling scripts is very good, all over the capital, whether it is in the aristocratic mansion or in the streets and alleys, there are voices everywhere talking about the two stories of the gray wolf and the Journey to the West, I don't know if the concubine can intervene and make a rouge gouache money?" ”
Jiang Long put down the teacup in his hand, and it was as he expected.
Only Chai Shirong will be full of desire to kiss Mrs. Diexiang Fangze after receiving the invitation.
On the printing house, Jiang Long will no longer give out benefits to others.
Even if he sighed a little about the fate of Lady Butterfly.
Moreover, in addition to publishing books to make money, Jianglong also has another purpose.
