Chapter 100: Implications
Tengxiang Siwei Yamen is located in the room of Wuying Palace, short **, can pass through the middle and right door to the Qianqing Palace, it is very convenient to act.
When Chen Luo received Wang Xi's small note, he was sitting on the Taishi's chair behind the big book case in the yafang, worrying about where to get the white one. When I received the note, I was immediately furious.
He was busy here, and Bo Mingyue still had the heart to provoke Wang Xi.
Chen Luo called one of his subordinates named Wei Huai to come in, and said gloomily: "I heard that Bo Mingyue is busy making incense these days, and I don't know who he is trying to please?" You keep an eye on him, don't give a piece of incense to the two families. β
This Wei Huai is also a meritorious child, martial arts, ability are among the best, the personality is quite straightforward, although two or three years older than Chen Luo, but because there are many sons in the family, he is neither the eldest son nor the youngest son, the elders in the family can't take care of him here, he can only run a future by himself, so he wants to take Chen Luo's path, and the relationship with Chen Luo is not only handled very well, but he is also willing to help Chen Luo run errands for something.
As soon as he heard this, he knew that this was a personal grudge, so he deliberately smiled obscenely at Chen Luo, and said, "Do you want Bo Tongzhi to know about it?" β
There are too many officials in the Bo family, and the children of their family can only be commensurate with their official positions.
Bo Tongzhi is Bo Mingyue's second brother, who was born in a literati but took the path of a military attachΓ©, compared to Qingyun Hou Shizi who only socialized with his father, he is more like a big brother, not only likes to manage the schoolwork of several younger brothers and sisters, but also likes to manage their behavior. Bo Mingyue was also more afraid of him.
Chen Luo said with a grin: "Since you are allowed to star, if the people of the Bo family don't know what the point is!" β
Dig a pit for Bo Mingyue and dig it so that it is called a righteous light!
Wei Huai understood, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I promise to find something if you have nothing to do." β
That's what it means.
Chen Luo nodded, and after Wei Huai left, he thought about it and went to Shi Lei.
Shi Lei was scratching his head in the yafang.
What did the emperor mean by letting Chen Luo go to Minnan?
Their Shi family has been running in the south for several generations, and it does have a bit of a wealthy family, and his third brother has been unable to enter the office for a long time, and the emperor also wants to suppress their family. But their family wasn't in too much of a hurry. First, his third brother is following Yan Xu, with Yan Xu's ability, sooner or later he will get up, and his third brother's future will not be able to run. The second is that the three brothers of their family are indeed too eye-catching, and the emperor also has to press it, and wait for a suitable opportunity to show grace, so that their family can feel more deeply what thunder and rain and dew are, and they can be more loyal and respectful in the future, which is also a means of the emperor.
But this suddenly appeared Chen Luo, and the Zhenguo Mansion was such a scene, is the emperor going to support Chen Luo? Is it forcing Chen Luo to be the son of the town?
It is human nature for an uncle to support his nephew, but if it is the future of his third brother who is sacrificed, how can the sacrificed person not be uncomfortable?
Did he write a letter to Yan Zhen to ask for an idea? Or write a letter to the third brother, and simply make way for Chen Luo, so as to make the emperor feel guilty in order to pursue his career?
Shi Lei was a little undecided, but Chen Luo came to visit him first.
He was startled, and subconsciously adjusted his official uniform before going out to see Chen Luo.
Chen Luo really deserves to be a beautiful man who is famous in the capital. A gorgeous red woven gold sprinkle was worn by him to show a heroic feeling, which made the people standing beside him feel uncomfortable.
Shi Lei coughed lightly, and then asked about Chen Luo's intention.
Chen Luo asked him to help him get some white noodles, and explained a little embarrassedly: "I have a treat in a few days." β
Shi Lei was stunned, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and his heart turned quickly.
Although he is from the south, he doesn't know how many officials in the south are officials in the court, Chen Luo didn't go to find Wu Xiang Zuowei, who was born in Jinling, and Chen Luo was an official with the guard, but Su Tong came to ask him?
Obviously, the drunkard doesn't mean to drink!
He dealt with it carefully, but his face didn't show it at all, and he laughed a few times, and said, "Master Chen, don't say it, if you don't know this, you must think that this is a trivial matter, and you should take it down." But I really don't dare to agree to this matter! According to me, you might as well let me make the exact same gold cocoon white! β
This is an allusion to the "golden rice bowl", right?
Chen Luo frowned almost invisibly.
Things are still going in a bad direction.
He said: "I am also sick and rushed to the doctor. If Lord Shi is really embarrassed, I'll ask Lord Su. I'm not going to bother you on your side. After speaking, Chen Luo got up and was about to leave.
Shi Lei was caught off guard and hurriedly said, "Don't worry!" How do I know about such a thing, you have to let me ask the mother-in-law at home, right? β
Chen Luo waved his hand and said, "It's more hopeful to ask a few more." If I hadn't planned to go to Minnan, I'm afraid this white would have pulled a car back a long time ago. β
Shi Lei was stunned.
Chen Luo has gone out.
By the time he understood what Chen Luo meant and chased him out, Chen Luo had disappeared.
Chen Luo, who returned to the Yamen, couldn't sit still, and when he saw that he was about to go to the Yamen, he made an excuse and left the Wuying Hall in advance, and instructed the sedan chair man: "Go to Liutiao Hutong." β
It's just that as soon as the words fell, he changed his mind again.
What did he do in Six Hutongs? Wang Xi wasn't there.
Bo Mingyue sent her things with such fanfare, I don't know what others will say if they know? She's definitely having a hard time. Maybe you're still scared?
He suddenly felt that it was not a very good thing for Wang Xi to live in the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion.
"Go back to the Eldest Princess's Mansion!" Chen Luo commanded the sedan chair man in a deep voice.
*
The first thing Wang Xi did when he got up in the morning was to ask Mama Wang if there was any movement there.
Mama Wang said with a smile: "Mrs. Hou and the second wife left Yuchun Hall very late yesterday, Mrs. Hou went to Chunyin Garden instead, and the second wife went back to Orchid Garden directly. β
Ms. Poon lives in Chun Yin Garden.
I didn't expect Mrs. Hou to go to Miss Pan for an idea when she encountered something!
Wang Xi nodded and said, "I hope there is someone among them who understands." β
Don't expect to get anything good by knowing Bo Mingyue.
Mama Wang also thought so, and whispered to her: "I went to the kitchen early this morning to get a few steamed buns, and I met Mama Pan next to Mrs. Hou on the way, and I told her that the people in Xiangyang Hou's Mansion are not trustworthy." Just look at the appearance of their family at the eldest princess's banquet. β
That's right.
Wang Xi hurriedly said: "What did Mama Pan say?" β
"She should have listened to me thoughtfully." Mama Wang said and helped Wang Xi comb her hair.
Wang Xi was used to comb her hair when she was a child, but when she was older, Mama Wang took care of more things, so she slowly handed it over to others, but sometimes, Mama Wang occasionally helped Wang Xi comb her hair.
She helped Wang Xi comb a very complicated fallen horse bun, and Bai Zhi also went to the garden to pick a lot of jasmine flowers, half of which were put on Wang Xi's head, and half were strung with a few little maids, or hung in Wang Xi's tent, or distributed to others and hung on the buttons of their clothes.
When Chang Ke came in, he smelled the jasmine fragrance all over the courtyard.
Bai Zhi helped Chang Ke also hairpin two rows of jasmine.
The two sat under the eaves and drank the sour plum soup that had been passed by Jingshui, ate the dragon whisker cake and sesame cake sent by Bo Mingyue, and set the day and list of treats.
Chang Ke said: "I'm afraid I still have to beg Mrs. Tai to borrow a few capable housekeepers from the family to help post posts." β
Wang Xi has his own ideas.
Since she agreed to help Chen Luo, there are some things that she can't turn to others for. You have to take root and manage it well. She was going to ask Mama Shi or Mama Pan to come forward, and Mama Wang followed and went to the next post together.
She and Chang Ke went to Mrs. Tai.
Mrs. Tai was rejected by Wang Xi yesterday, and she was still a little unhappy in her heart, and after listening to Shi Zhu's complaints, she didn't have the usual affection when she saw Wang Xi.
Wang Xi doesn't care.
She didn't grow up under Mrs. Tai's knees, and Mrs. Tai's feelings for her were naturally not so deep.
When Wang Xi told Mrs. Tai about this, she stood next to her and squeezed Mrs. Tai's shoulders diligently, and interjected two sentences from time to time: "Miss Bo Liu is definitely coming...... and Miss Wu Er...... Miss 6 said that if the Wang family's cousin didn't invite her, she would never pay attention to the Wang family's cousin in the future...... Although it is not as good as Princess Fuyang, all of them are the most counted people in the capital, and if something bad comes out, it is worse than offending Princess Fuyang...... Princess Fuyang is not satisfied, but she is just saying in the palace that if they are not satisfied, I am afraid that the reputation of our house will be damaged...... It's been a long time since we've had a banquet in our house......"
Mrs. Tai gradually changed her attitude when she heard this, not only agreed to let Mama Shi take Mama Wang to deliver the invitation, and let Mama Pan lead the white fruit to take care of the banquet that day, but also asked Mama Shi to open the warehouse: "The banquet utensils and tea sets are also made of that set of sweet white porcelain." β
This is the utensils and tea set that entertained Princess Fuyang that day.
Mama Shi glanced at Chang Ke meaningfully, and then took the key with a smile.
Chang Ke didn't pay attention to Mama Shi, she was excited to help Wang Xi do one thing, out of Yuchun Hall, and all the way back to Liuyin Garden with Wang Xi with a smile.
Baizhu, who came to greet them, saw that Wang Xi's gaze was a little complicated, and when Chang Ke had dinner and drank tea in Liuyin Garden and returned home, she walked to Wang Xi's side lightly and whispered: "Lord Chen asked Wang Xi to bring you a lot of snacks." He also said that he would feel better after eating a snack. β
Wang Xi was very surprised, but Chen Luo sent her snacks, she was still very happy, and even happy with a little expectation that she was not aware of: "Really? What snacks did he bring over? What about dim sum? Where did you put it? β
Baizhu went to pick up a snack and came in.
It's just four bags of dried fruits, four bags of pastries, four bags of candy, and four bags of fruits, but they are all snacks from Gui Shunzhai, a time-honored brand in Beijing.
Wang Xi opened the paper box with interest and vigor.
The dried fruits are walnut crisp, longan, dried apricots, and dates; The pastries are pea yellow, cloud cake, donkey rolling, and poria cake; The candies are hemp sugar, halva, kraft candy and nest sugar; The fruits are plums, bayberry, apricots, and begonia fruits.
"There's kraft candy! And begonia fruit! She exclaimed, the joy on her face flowing uncontrollably.
Baizhu looked at it, and said in his heart that there are plums and walnut crisps that you don't like to eat, why don't you say it?
Yesterday, I disliked Bo Gongzi and sent walnut crisp and plums!
