The county lord of Changle did not relentlessly add fists and kicks to Xu Mao.

At this moment, the maid Xichun beside her suddenly covered her mouth and coughed lightly, reminding her that someone was coming.

"Why don't you hurry up, aren't you ashamed enough?" said to Xu Mao in a low voice.

Hearing this, Xu Mao hurriedly stood up and went to the side of the county lord of Changle, he reined in the pitiful look just now, and in a blink of an eye, he became the majestic scholar of the Ministry of Rites.

Seeing that it was Yu, Xu Mao's expression was embarrassed and embarrassed at first.

"County Lord, be well!" Yu knelt down towards the County Lord of Changle and saluted.

"Get up. ”

Yu got up, and because Xu Mao was next to him, in order to avoid suspicion, he didn't dare to raise his head, so he had to lower his head and say to the county lord of Changle: "The outside worship has been completed, and the male guests have already eaten." Mrs. Kang has been looking for the county lord in the inner courtyard for a long time, and she will wait for the county lord to arrive before she dares to open the banquet. ”

Among today's female guests, it is the highest status of the county lord of Changle. If she is not present, how can anyone dare to touch the food.

When the county lord of Changle heard this, he was a little impatient.

It stands to reason that her identity could have only been sent to give a gift, but King Xian told her to come here in person, and to treat the people of the Kang family with courtesy.

I didn't want to come here, but now I'm here and I'm still encountering these bad things.

"Then the husband will go to dinner first, and I will go here too. Without waiting for Xu Mao to respond, the county lord of Changle walked towards the inner courtyard.

Seeing that there was no one around, the county lord of Changle said to the Yu family, who was waiting carefully: "A few years ago, if you hadn't stabbed out those bastards of the two of them, I would have almost become a joke in the whole Bianjing. Fortunately, you saw the edge today, and sent a maid to inform me in time. Otherwise, they were afraid that they would make some moths again, thinking that I would be the lord of the county, and almost planted it in the hands of a little official twice. I really have to thank you for that......"

Speaking of this, the county lord of Changle remembered the past.

Thirteen years ago, in order to help the old emperor recruit wise men, King Xian held a three-day poetry party in the palace. This poetry meeting is famous all over the world, whether it is an idle literati and ink writers, or the children of the official eunuchs of the current dynasty, all those who are learned and ambitious come to participate.

That year, Xu Mao, who was only 12 years old, was greatly appreciated by the Xianwang with a copy of Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface", and the guests were all amazed.

The county lord of Changle has always been a fun-loving lord, how can he be idle to hold such a feast in his own home, so he secretly changed into a maid costume and shuttled between the crowds. Looking at the young man Gu Shenfei in the praise of everyone, he couldn't help but feel a spring in his heart, and he secretly promised to marry this person as his wife.

The county lord of Changle told King Xian his thoughts without hesitation that night.

King Xian heard his daughter making such nonsense, so he directly rewarded her with a family law. Although Xu Mao is a talented person, he is still far from the fast son-in-law of Chenglong in his heart. This daughter has been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child, how can she be willing to let her follow the son of a sesame petty official.

It's just that the lord of Changle County has always been unwilling to stop until he reaches his goal, and he knelt in the ancestral hall for five days begging his father to agree. Seeing her making trouble every day, King Xian was finally defeated and married them.

Since he acquiesced in the Xu family, King Xian secretly promoted Xu Mao's father. Overnight, the Xu family became prominent, and Xu Mao's family was even more grateful to King Xian.

Who would have thought that Xu Mao didn't think about the great grace of the virtuous king, and secretly planned to elope with his childhood sweetheart's concubine. Fortunately, in the end, the Yu family in front of him informed the families of both sides, so that he was spared from losing face.

The face of the county lord of Changle gradually lost the coldness just now, and he became more intimate with the Yu family.

"The county lord said such a thing, it really tormented me. It's not so much about helping you, it's about helping myself. There was a little more resentment in Yu's words.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I thought my sister was alone in the courtyard and there was no one to take care of her, so I brought her some pastries. Who would have thought that she was standing at the gate of that courtyard earlier, looking left and right as if waiting for someone. When I asked, she slurred and said, 'I'm waiting to give my heart back to my old friend'. Because of the past, I have guessed that the person she is talking about is Lord Xu. ”

The county lord of Changle listened to Yu's words, and the hatred in his eyes deepened.

Yu continued: "Over the years, she often casually talked about her past with Master Xu in front of me, and I have warned her many times not to indulge in it, just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that she never answered me directly, just lamented again and again. Both of them are my little hair, and if I try to stop them, I'm afraid they won't listen to me. So I could only secretly send a maid to tell the county lord, but fortunately, the county lord took action and saved the façade of my Zhao Mansion. ”

After that, Yu saluted again and thanked him.

The county lord of Changle hurriedly helped her up, looked at the place where there were many people soon, and whispered in her ear: "After dinner today, let's find a quiet place to have a good chat." ”

Yu nodded, leading the county lord of Changle towards the upper position in the banquet.

"Jinshu, who is that lady next to my mother? Hua Shu pulled Jin Shu's sleeve and asked her to look at the bright person in the distance.

Jin Shu looked in the direction of Hua Shu's eyes, and saw that Mrs. Kang was carefully waiting for the arrangement.

Thinking of facing the family members of the minister of Yipin, Mrs. Kang was at ease and calm. Now facing this person, but cautious everywhere, Jin Shu guessed that this person should be a prince and prince's internal dependent.

Jin Shu was inconvenient to explain too much to Hua Shu, so she simply said: "I don't know." When I followed my grandmother to visit a few ladies just now, I didn't see this person. ”

When the banquet was to begin, the maids rushed in, served exquisite dishes, and everyone began to move chopsticks.

While serving food for Hua Shu, Jin Shu stared at the expression and demeanor of Yu Shi chatting with the mysterious person, and did not notice the displeasure on the face of the eldest sister Fanshu during the banquet.

didn't even wait for the table, Fanshu walked out alone.
