Chapter 37: Hou Ye

After Liao Tianxiong left, Liao Shengnan looked at the quaint box, the girl's curiosity came up, and quietly opened the lock of the box with a hairpin, and saw a crystal clear jasper butterfly hairpin inside. Although Liao Shengnan's momentum is comparable to that of a man, he is still an original woman, and he can't help but play with the hairpin, and if he can't enjoy it, he inserts the hairpin into his bun. Liao Shengnan looked at this hairpin and liked it more and more, and sure enough, he fell asleep with this dart as if he was joking.

Because of the status of the north and south dart lines, when Liao Shengnan and Zhao He passed through the mountains and old age, they greeted each other in jargon along the way, and most of the green forest heroes saw the dart flag and heard the name of Liao Tianxiong's daughter, and they also gave way to face, so Liao Shengnan's first dart was very smooth.

Zhao He complained to Liao Shengnan: "Cousin, you said that our trip was too easy, I feel that the kung fu I learned before seems to be completely useless, and it all depends on the name of my uncle." ”

Liao Shengnan smiled and said: "Cousin, do you think my dad has been messing up the rivers and lakes all these years, how good it is to walk the darts safely." Okay, let's hurry up and go to the Changhou Master's house to deliver the things. I heard that there are a lot of delicious and fun things in this imperial capital, cousin, how about we go to the night market at night? ”

Zhao He nodded, and wanted to quietly and inadvertently pull Liao Shengnan's little hand, Liao Shengnan. didn't notice Zhao He's careful thoughts at all, and quickly walked to the front. Zhao He is very distressed, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for his uncle to cultivate his feelings, and he is about to go back, if he hasn't made Liao Shengnan like him, will his uncle give the other two opportunities when he goes back?

Zhao He was very depressed, and decided that before going back, he must let Liao Shengnan be tempted by him, so that he could inherit the family business of the North and South Darts and become a resounding figure in the rivers and lakes.

Zhang Dalin and Zhang Houye had just returned from the court, and the housekeeper said to Zhang Houye: "Master, the gift you are looking for has arrived." ”

Marquis Zhang let out an "oh" and said, "Everyone is giving gifts, just to show their loyalty to Your Majesty, you bring it to me to see." ”

The housekeeper was embarrassed and said: "Master, this time it was sent by Liao Shengnan, the daughter of the North and South Dart Shops, that little girl has just entered the rivers and lakes, and she has a lot of tendons, so she has to say that according to her father's orders, she must be handed over to you in person." ”

Zhang Houye said with interest: "This girl is quite axial, okay, call her to the study." ”

The housekeeper went down, and Liao Shengnan and Zhao He, who had been drinking tea, heard that Zhang Houye had summoned them, and the two pretended to be calm and made a calm attitude of adults, but in the eyes of the old housekeeper, they were just two children who had not dried up.

Zhang Dalin was drinking tea, and suddenly saw the housekeeper with a little girl and a teenager into the study, looking at the girl and the boy's body, a sense of vitality and youth, Zhang Houye touched his beard, looked at the girl with a smile, not at all like the weak female in the boudoir, very heroic.

Liao Shengnan was very nervous because he saw the big man for the first time, and kept looking at the ground, and saluted after entering the door: "The folk girl Liao Shengnan sees the Hou Ye." ”

"Grass people Zhao He participated in the Hou Ye."

Zhang Dalin touched his goatee and said with a smile: "You are Liao Tianxiong's only daughter, Liao Shengnan." ”

Liao Shengnan said stiffly: "Back to the Hou Ye, the folk girl is exactly." This is the father's explanation, the folk girl must personally hand over the things to the Hou Ye, please take a look at the Hou Ye. ”

Liao Shengnan handed over the box, Zhang Dalin signaled to the housekeeper, and after the housekeeper took the box and opened it, he handed it to Zhang Dalin, Zhang Dalin looked at the jasper butterfly hairpin, and nodded: "It's wonderful, it's really to the point of being fake." ”

Then he said to the butler, "They are doing a good job, and they are rewarded." ”

The butler nodded.

Zhang Dalin looked at Liao Shengnan and said, "When I was working with your father under Jinshang, your father had just inherited the family business and had not yet married. I didn't expect that in a flash, the girls were so old. Girl, do you know that your father and I were friends in the first place? ”

Liao Shengnan lowered his head and said: "Back to Lord Hou, I heard my father often mention it, and my cousin and I both admired Lord Hou's bravery back then. I am fortunate to meet Master Hou today, and my cousin and I are really fortunate to have three lives. ”

Zhang Dalin listened to Liao Sheng's song and laughter: "Haha, this Liao Tianxiong's daughter is really very good at my heart, it is rare for a virtuous niece and virtuous nephew to come to Kyoto, and I, an elder, should always do my best to be a landlord and take care of the two of you for Liao Tianxiong." Butler, prepare the east and south wings, and let the niece and nephew stay at home for a few more days. ”

Faced with the sudden variables, Liao Shengnan had no choice but to nod: "Master Xie, the people's daughter and cousin are disrespectful." ”

Liao Shengnan and Zhao He quietly followed the housekeeper all the way down to rest, and Liao Shengnan saw Zhao He in the garden in the evening and proposed: "Cousin, I heard that this imperial capital night market is not a sleepy city, let's go out for a walk together, how about it?" ”

Zhao He nodded, and as soon as the two came to the door, they were stopped by the housekeeper who came in a hurry, and said, "Miss Liao, Zhao Gongzi, are you looking for it?" ”

After Liao Shengnan and Zhao He heard this, they asked rhetorically: "What's the matter with the housekeeper?" ”

The housekeeper smiled and said, "Master Hou entertained Miss Liao and Zhao Gongzi in Shuixuan tonight, I didn't expect you to be here, but I can be regarded as chasing you, hurry up and go to the banquet with me." ”

Liao Shengnan and Zhao He looked at each other and felt that something was wrong, so they had to smile and nod: "Butler, please lead the way." ”

Liao Shengnan and Zhao He walked through the corridor, and when they passed the curved bridge, they saw that there were fewer and fewer maids and maids who were coming and going just now, and the two felt even more that something was wrong.

When I came to the water pavilion, I saw only a woman who looked like Marquis Zhang and one of his concubines.

The reason why Liao Shengnan is so sure is because this woman is dressed too enchanting and kitsch, even if Liao Shengnan is a woman in the rivers and lakes, he knows that this woman is a plaything that makes people happy. This Hou Ye invited that person to dinner, what is the intention of taking such a woman?

The woman looked at Liao Shengnan with a black face, as if she had a deep hatred, and Liao Shengnan was very puzzled. The two of them were doing it in a panic, like sitting on pins and needles.

It has always been Marquis Zhang who has been talking to himself about the days of happiness and enmity on the rivers and lakes in the past, and the woman who is like a concubine has been welcoming her, Liao Shengnan and Zhao He are also very embarrassed listeners, and they only know how to nod and drink. After drinking for three rounds, Liao Shengnan felt that his head was a little dizzy.

Liao Shengnan shook his head, thinking that his sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes could be regarded as being able to drink a big jar of wine, how could he not hold it with just a few small glasses?

Liao Shengnan looked at Zhao He and saw that his cousin's face was already flushed, as if he was about to fall. Zhang Houye also saw the signs, and said meaningfully to the woman: "Miaoxiang, hurry up and send Zhao Gongzi back to have a good rest." ”

Miao Xiang nodded, waved a handkerchief full of fragrance and carried Zhao He away with the housekeeper left and right.
