Now everyone in Jiangnan knows that Empress Dowager Zhong and Princess Mingzhu are in Jiangning, so Jiangning's security is exceptionally good.

In addition, every time Princess Mingzhu travels, she is accompanied by a large number of royal guards, and all idle people avoid it.

Therefore, when a large group of people came out of Mei's house this time, everyone on the street knew that it was Princess Mingzhu who went out to play.

Zhong Taojiao sat in the carriage and said with a smile: "Mingzhu, I see that these people in Jiangning are very respectful to you, and they bow down all the way." ”

"Of course, there is my grandmother in town, we came from the capital, and the officials of all sizes have also withdrawn twenty or thirty. Let anyone who has grievances appeal, who would dare to be a demon? ”

Gu Fanghua was very proud, although her grandmother did not let the governor of Jiangnan, she came to ask for peace if she had something to do.

But these big and small things in Jiangnan can't hide from my grandmother's eyes.

"Yes, my aunt and grandmother are heroes among women. Uh, Mingzhu, did you go to sacrifice your father? ”

Zhong Taojiao only knew that Gu Dian had an accident in Jiangnan back then, and she was in infancy at that time, but she didn't know where it was.

Gu Fanghua's eyes darkened and nodded: "When I came over with my grandmother, I made a special trip to worship." ”

"It's okay, go to the temple in a while, and you light more lamps for Gu Yuma."

Zhulin Temple is a big temple in Jiangning, with a long history and flourishing incense. When Gu Fanghua got on the car from the foot of the mountain, the Imperial Forest Army had already stood all the way to the temple from the foot of the mountain.

Originally, pedestrians on the road temporarily avoided the sides of the stone steps to prevent assassins.

Mei Ziran took a step behind and walked behind Gu Fanghua and Zhong Taojiao.

Looking at the two sides of the stone steps, the Imperial Forest Army with ten steps and one person, said with a smile: "Princess, in fact, you can order that Zhulin Temple be closed today, and there is no need to move the people like this." ”

"How's that going to work? The Buddha said: All people are equal. Today, the surrounding people will come to Zhulin Temple to ask for Laba porridge and pray for peace. How can I spoil everyone's interest with my own selfishness. ”

Gu Fanghua's words of course made Mei Ziran secretly admire.

Those pedestrians on the road who were temporarily avoiding on the side also heard Gu Fanghua's words, and they were all grateful to Princess Mingzhu in their hearts.

Zhong Taojiao said curiously: "Listening to Cousin Mei say this, there were people who sealed the temple before?" Is it your home? ”

Mei Ziran hurriedly said: "Of course it's not my family, but someone else." ”

Gu Fanghua was also a little curious, and asked, "Oh, who is so big-faced?" Can the thousand-year-old temple also close its doors and only entertain his family? ”

Mei Ziran thought for a moment and said: "I heard that it seems that in fifteen years, there was a time when the Zhulin Temple was closed for three days. But it didn't seem to be a big day at the time, and I don't know who closed the temple and why. Later, there were two times, both of which were on the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and people from the Governor's Mansion came. ”

"Jiangnan Governor Wu Xiangang? He believes in Buddhism? ”

"Of course it wasn't Governor Wu who came in person, it should be the female relatives of the Governor's Mansion who came to offer incense and make vows."

Gu Fanghua thought for a while and said with a smile: "Yes, Wu Xiangang only has one son, and he is still an old man, so he naturally wants to make incense and make a wish." Speaking of which, I don't seem to have seen his son yet. ”

Mei Ziran chuckled and said, "The Queen Mother and Her Royal Highness the Princess, they are famous. Wu Gongzi was spoiled by his family, so he naturally didn't dare to let him come out to walk. ”

Zhong Taojiao, who was silent all the way, immediately came to the spirit.

"What? What's so unsightly about the kid of the Wu family? Does he like to rob people's daughters? Or is it a gentleman? ”

Gu Fanghua looked at Zhong Taojiao, gearing up, and bent over with a smile.

Mei Ziran explained: "Mrs. Yan, it's not enough to rob people's daughters. It's just that he has a part of his infatuation, and since the age of twelve, he has vowed to marry a stunning beauty. Therefore, Governor Wu was afraid that when he saw the princess, he had delusions that he should not have. ”

Gu Fanghua picked a wildflower casually, put a hairpin on his head, and said with a smile: "Cousin of the Mei family, I can accept your reason." ”

Zhong Taojiao still didn't give up, and asked: "Then will he persecute the woman of the good family, this Jiangnan is his father's final say." ”

Mrs. Yan rest assured, if he has a woman he likes, he will invite the family to hire him. There is no forced buying and selling, just taking what they need, and if he doesn't want to, he will let go. ”

Mei Ziran's behavior towards Wu Gongzi is not to talk about likes and dislikes, but only to state the facts.

Zhong Taojiao felt the novelty and asked, "Those unwilling women, are there any people who are embarrassed by revenge afterwards?" ”

Gu Fanghua also looked at Mei Ziran, looking forward to him continuing to gossip.

Mei Ziran coughed lightly twice and said with a smile: "Wu Gongzi's name is Chengxiang, he is twenty years old this year, he is handsome, generous, and graceful. I didn't hear about it afterwards, there were women who were embarrassed by revenge, but there were many people who wanted to be caught and indulged, and regretted it. ”

Gu Fanghua listened with interest and said with a smile: "Hahaha, interesting!" Then I want to know, if you like it, you will be hired, how many ladies has he married? ”

"That's not true, the people he married home are all concubines, and the position of the wife is still waiting for someone to be destined. It is said that the hundred beauty pictures are almost ready. ”

As soon as Mei Ziran said this, Gu Fanghua remembered and asked: "Then this Wu Chengxiang, is it the person who was respected by many people in the last poetry meeting and is known as the amorous son of Jiangnan?" ”

"Yes, it's an amorous son."

Zhong Taojiao took a sip and scolded with a smile: "What kind of amorous son is he, but he is just playing with those girls because he is powerful in his family." ”

Gu Fanghua took a breath, raised her eyes and looked at the mountain gate, there were only a hundred ladders left, and she really wanted to rest.

"This is Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. If you are not greedy for vanity, how can you be willing to be a concubine? Wu Chengxiang can not force people, it is already rare. Let's go, rest in the pavilion. ”

Gu Fanghua came to a grass pavilion on the side of the road, and they quickly spread a gray squirrel skin mat, and a warm pot came from behind, and tea was poured.

Mei Ziran was also a little thirsty, and drank two cups of tea elegantly, and then smiled: "The princess is right, I used to be jealous and hateful, and my grandmother also taught me like this." ”

Zhong Taojiao thought for a while and snorted coldly: "Also, I don't believe that all he likes are poor girls." Those who have roots are willing to degenerate into concubines, and they deserve it. ”

Gu Fanghua also drank two cups of tea, tasted a piece of snacks casually, and asked boredly: "Then how does Wu Chengxiang compare with the cousin of the Mei family?" Who's more handsome? ”

Mei Ziran's fair face stiffened, and she said a little shyly: "I don't know about this." ”

Gu Fanghua didn't believe it, turned her head and asked Mei Ziran's long-term follower: "Qingfeng, your young master or Wu Chengxiang, who is more famous and good-looking?" ”

Qingfeng is a clever person, and immediately replied with a smile: "If you want to talk about talent, Young Master Wu can't catch up with Young Master even if he shoots a horse." But when it comes to handsomeness, the young master is not as good as the young master Wu. In the past, the young master of the Wu family was known as the son of Yushu, but it was only later that he saw Xiao Gongzi and changed to an amorous son. ”

"Xiao Yao?"

Qingfeng said respectfully: "Back to the princess, yes, Xiao Zhuangyuan Xiao Yao." ”
