Chapter Eighty-Eight: You Go to the Election
“...... Third brother, it's hard for you to come out once, just go shopping with you, it's lively on the road, that Zhang family girl is very edible, so big a bag of things has been eaten by her...... "It's strange to say, Zhu Youzhu didn't say Li Zhuozhuo, just mentioned Zhang Erzhen, Zhu Youzhu said lightly: "Which Zhang family girl?"
"That's it-" Zhu Youzhu pointed at Zhang Erzhen and said, "Look at the small and slender one, who knew that he would eat so many ......"
Zhu Youzhu was reluctant to mention Zhang Erzhen in front of so many people, and said, "Sit down for a while, we should go back." If you don't obey, I won't take you out next time. ”
Zhu Youzhu pouted and said yes, but he had no interest in speaking, and only looked left and right to admire the luxury of the decoration of the Treasure Pavilion.
Zhang Erzhen drank tea diligently, squinting her eyes and savoring the feeling of tea on the tip of her tongue. Zhang Erzhen felt that she was the same, light was enough, and she didn't need to be as fiery and rich as coffee.
Liang Aiwan hung her slender neck as shy, Li Zhuozhuo's reaction was relatively slow, and she asked, "Are you uncomfortable again at night, why do you look so bad?"
Liang Aiwan said softly: "The body is not in the way, but I feel that it is a little stuffy here, and it is a little hot." ”
Li Zhuozhuo wondered: "I think it's very comfortable and cool, it's because you've been wearing that hat for too long, so it's time to rest for a while." ”
Zhang Erzhen only felt that the breeze was gusting and cool. It is said that people have three urgencies, even the domineering Wu Zetian has to go to the toilet, not to mention Zhang Erzhen, who eats and drinks a lot.
Talking casually to the two girls, Zhang Erzhen took the two maids along the road paved with a fiery red carpet. Sure enough, I thought it was right, this was the same as the big shopping mall in the previous life, and the blue cardboard hanging above my head was painted with the marks of the two villains, men and women, but it was not the place of the latrine. Mingyue sighed with emotion: "Girl, the Treasure Pavilion is really a magical place. Look at the girls who walked along the way, everyone bent down respectfully when they saw us, and they smiled so beautifully. ”
Ruyue said dissatisfiedly: "The slave maid just looked at a girl from the Treasure Pavilion and reprimanded a child in ordinary clothes, presumably here is also watching people put down dishes." ”
Zhang Erzhen smiled and didn't make a sound, the Treasure Pavilion is so styled, so high-profile and luxurious, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. The thatched toilet is located in a remote location and is sparsely populated, but the light is still there. There was a noise of gongs and drums on the other side of the stage, presumably the event had begun. Zhang Erzhen walked back tightly, and a girl in pink came to meet her, smiling enthusiastically and said: "Girl, wait a minute, that road is being piled up with singing and dancing boxes for the event, it can't go through at this time, the girl comes with me, and I will take you to the shortcut." ”
Zhang Erzhen casually glanced at the face of the girl in pink and asked, "Someone wants to see me?"
The pink-clothed girl's face shook unnaturally and said, "...... Girl, please come with me. ”
Mingyue Ruyue is like a great enemy, but she didn't expect Zhang Erzhen to respond with a smile, Ruyue has always been careful, and said hurriedly: "Girl, can you go, who knows who sent her." ”
Zhang Erzhen said: "Don't get in the way, it should be an old friend I haven't seen for a long time." ”
As the girl in pink skirted the noisy hall and turned into a silent and remote verandah. The Treasure Pavilion is indeed as its name, everywhere shows a fine splendor, the small garden is rare and exotic, the top of the verandah is embossed and carved, and the vernamomum pillars climb the verdant green dill, the breeze floats, rustling. If it weren't for the faint sound of gongs and drums coming from behind, it would have looked much more desolate here. Zhang Erzhen probably guessed who the person who wanted to see her was, the girl in pink who led the way in front of her walked quickly, and after a while, she stopped in front of a dark embossed hidden flower window, standing with her hands down, Zhang Erzhen pushed the door in, and a faint sandalwood came to her nose, and Zhu Youzhu, who was still sitting on the round wooden table in the hall and talking to Zhu Youzhu, was already drinking a fragrant tea, and the green smoke curled on the side, adding a touch of mystery. Mingyue Ruyue was surprised, they obviously didn't know that their girl and the third prince they had just met were old acquaintances, and Zhang Erzhen sat on the chair on the other side of Nanmu stilts very unceremoniously, and asked: "I heard that Your Highness is in good health, I haven't congratulated you yet, looking at your ruddy face, natural lips, and hard body, look at your trip to southern Yunnan was not in vain." ”
Zhu Youzhu only raised his eyes, Zhang Erzhen signaled that it was okay, and wanted Mingyue Ruyue to wait at the door, the girl in pink took the door, and as the door closed softly, the two of them were much more comfortable.
"Where is Doctor Li now, is he also in Beijing, I will visit him another day." Zhang Erzhen carefully looked at Zhu Youzhen's complexion, and felt that his face was indeed much better than before, and Doctor Li was really powerful, and his credit was very high.
"Doctor Li is not in Beijing. Zhu Youzhu said simply, glanced at Zhang Erzhen's rosy cheeks and said, "It seems that you have had a good life in the past few years, you were four feet back then, and now you should be five feet." ”
Zhang Erzhen didn't care about Zhu Youzhen's cold attitude, and continued: "Naturally, it is going to be longer, and His Highness is taller when he looks at it." In addition, His Royal Highness still owes me two favors, now that our family is in Beijing, don't forget when you need Your Highness's help in the future, we have an agreement first. Zhang Erzhen still remembers Zhu Youji's embarrassed appearance back then, and now if he keeps Yunkai, he will be really happy for him.
Zhu Youzhu became more and more disliking to speak, and lightly opened his lips and said, "I haven't forgotten." ”
......
Zhang Erzhen asked, "Your Highness didn't call me over to drink tea?"
Zhu Youzhu coughed lightly, and said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "The gang of bandits who escaped back then have been caught by Second Master Qiu, you don't have to worry about this." The one who took the lead has already confessed, but only for a few pieces of silver, and they have now been exiled to southern Yunnan. ”
Zhang Erzhen was stunned for a moment, she had long forgotten about the distant matter, since Zhu Youzhu had already driven them out, it was not a pity for the bandits and bandits, so she smiled and thanked: "Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness is wise, the little woman is willing to bow to the wind, Your Highness is mighty, Your Highness is mighty, Your Highness is mighty." ”
............
“...... I'm going to choose the crown princess......" Zhu Youzhu popped out another sentence, Zhang Erzhen was dumbfounded and said dryly: "I've heard of this, Your Royal Highness is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and you should have a concubine......
Zhu Youzhu didn't make a sound, and said quietly after a while: "Can't you run for election......
Zhang Erzhen stared at Zhu Youzhen and looked at it, but Zhu Youzhen didn't react, his eyes hit Zhang Erzhen's watery apricot eyes, and Zhang Erzhen said in a flash: "What did Your Highness say, you know, I have been ...... with the son of the Zhang family since I was a child" Zhang Erzhen scratched her cheeks, and she couldn't help but be hot, because Zhu Youzhen looked at her with deep meaning and far-reaching eyes. Zhu Youzhu sighed: "I know, I already knew." ”
"The son of the Sun family is handsome and intelligent, and his demeanor is graceful, I look good. Zhang Erzhen cheekily praised Sun Baijian, and the tips of her ears were red. Zhu Youzhu didn't react when he heard this, and only said after a while: "Have you seen him after entering Beijing?"
This one...... Zhang Erzhen didn't know whether to tell the truth, Zhu Youzhu saw her hesitation, and said coldly: "I've seen everything, why don't you dare to say it?"
Zhang Erzhen knew that Zhu Youzhu had always been a young man, and when he saw that his face was not worried at this time, he didn't care about him, so he responded: "I just met a few days ago, won't His Royal Highness want me to run for the crown princess and withdraw from the marriage of the Sun family?"
Zhu Youzhu took a sip of tea, and sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Are you willing?"
Zhang Erzhen felt that Zhu Youzhu was not only awkward now, but also unpleasant, so he said: "Brother Bai Jian is gentle and elegant, and he is very suitable for me, although I am young, I also know that people's hearts are good and bad, so I am naturally reluctant to divorce him." If he hadn't been willing to settle a family relationship with me back then, I would have no bones left at this time, and people couldn't cross the river and tear down the bridge. ”
"You know what is good and what is bad at a young age, if you really know what is good and what is bad, you should know how inappropriate it is to see Sun Baijian in private. Zhu Youzhu pinched the back of the teacup, and said unhappily: "You are only nine years old, and your Zhang family can't wait to find a husband for you." Now Sun Baijian is looking at Shang Ke, what about the future, if he treats you badly in the future, what should he do?"
Zhu Youzhu didn't know what to do, and Zhang Erzhen didn't want to explain to him: "This is my Zhang family's business, Your Highness, you take care of me, Your Highness doesn't want to find the crown princess himself?" I was born free and easy, and I don't want to go to the deep palace of the Gaomen compound to abide by the rules and constraints, so I thank Your Highness for your kindness in advance." ”
Zhu Youzhu was silent for a while, and asked, "So you thought about it......"
"Yes, I've thought about it since I knew that His Highness was the crown prince. His Royal Highness will be the Ninety-Five in the future, and the beauties of the harem are not more than three thousand, I am soft-spoken, and I dare not feel that I am special, so I have never fantasized about it. I know very well what kind of environment my little me is more suitable for than His Highness. Brother Bai Jian is not from a wealthy background, and there are no complicated interpersonal relationships in the family, so I am very fortunate to be able to marry him. Although I'm young, it's not that right and wrong are pretentious and simple......" Zhang Erzhen said softly, her face was hot again, whether it was shyness, whether it was weak-hearted, or something else, it was a little unclear.
Zhu Youzhu said in a hoarse voice: "...... I know that although you are small, you have always had a good idea, and even ten cows will not be able to pull you back. ”
"I'm in the fire pit myself, I shouldn't have dragged you in, it's me who is selfish......" Zhu Youzhu said quietly, his long eyelashes drooped, and his face flickered in the candlelight, and he couldn't see clearly.
Zhang Erzhen felt sad for no reason, what kind of mood did Zhu Youzhu have when she came to her today? But this is the reality, she is indeed soft-spoken, cautious and timid, loves her life and cherishes her life, and does not dare to make mistakes, resulting in a loss of the whole game. Zhu Youzhi and her are friends in distress, and then they will go their own way, the road is facing the sky, he will go back to marry a delicate beauty from the family to sit on the throne, and she will wait for the future to marry a husband and son of Sun Baijian, which is the best.
Zhang Erzhen persuaded: "There are many people in Beijing, there are cute and delicate people, there are elegant people, and there are heroic and chic people." Your Royal Highness, your crown princess should be able to give you a strong arm, and the family is huge and thick, so that you can work the government and not worry about trivial matters. My Zhang family is scattered, and I have no ambitions, so it will be your hindrance and hindrance...... Your Highness understands it, doesn't it?"
Zhu Youzhu was silent for a long time, and after a long time, he said coldly: "You have always understood so clearly, I am speechless. If you help me once, you will ask for a favor, and this kind of calculation will be like a market sale, and then the two will not owe each other. You're so smart and sensible, I still underestimate you. ”
The tip of Zhang Erzhen's nose was sour, she couldn't bear to shed tears, wiped away a tear from the corner of her eyes by drinking tea, and replied softly: "Your Highness knows everything, just let me go." ”
"You can't help but think too highly of yourself, Zhang Erzhen, I pity you and I have the same fate, if you don't know what to do, forget it. ”
Zhu Youzhu put the teacup on the table, lifted his robe and strode out. Zhang Erzhen watched Zhu Youzhang's back disappear, tears burst out of her eyes, inexplicable and unreasonable......
When Mingyue Ruyue came in, Zhang Erzhen had already cleaned up, except for the reddish eyes, the rest were fine.
