Chapter 221: Refusal

Let's say that Mrs. Li and her servants sent King Nanmu back to the house first, but when they walked up to a pavilion and corridor that they had to pass, they made a difficulty.

A servant asked in a low voice, "Madam, do you want to send the prince back to Yunxuan or Yaoxian Pavilion?" ”

Luoyunxuan is the courtyard of King Nanmu, and Yaoxian Pavilion is where the serious housewife in the palace lives.

It stands to reason that the prince and his wife have become husband and wife and should have lived together, but it is strange to say that these two lords have lived separately since they lived together for the two months after they got married.

Because of this matter, the servants in the house also talked a lot in private. But to the outside world, in order to teach the little county lord well, the lady and her food, clothing, housing and transportation are all together, for fear of wronging the prince, so this decision will be made.

Such days have lasted for nearly half a year, and the steward of the questioning is not ignorant. Just thinking that now that the prince is drunk, it is an opportunity, and when he asks this, he is actually courting in front of Mrs. Li. In case of seizing the opportunity, the lady is happy, not to mention whether he can be promoted to his official position immediately, and the reward must be indispensable.

When Mrs. Li heard this, she really threw a meaningful look at him, and she also paused at her feet.

A moment later, she seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and opened her mouth and said to go to her Yaoxian Pavilion, "...... The prince is drunk like this, someone has to take care of him at night, how can he stay alone in Luoyunxuan? If you go to my Yaoxian Pavilion, there is still me guarding on the side, so that it will be foolproof. ”

When the servant heard this, he immediately helped the person to the left side of the pavilion.

The general walked a few steps, but he heard a hoarse voice sound, "Let's go back to Yunxuan, I'm used to living over there, and I can rest well." ”

Because of these words, the group of people on the pavilion and corridor paused for life. And the prince, who originally needed someone to support him, slowly straightened up, and the process didn't take much effort, and it didn't seem to be very drunk.

Seeing this, the originally opportunistic steward naturally didn't dare to assert himself, so he only looked at the housewife on the side.

Mrs. Li was naturally very embarrassed by her husband's dismantling of the stage like this, she leaned forward with a smile, and said softly while gently supporting the person: "Lord Wang, you have drunk a lot tonight, if you stay alone, I am afraid that it will not be safe." The concubine heard that if you drink too much wine, you will vomit, and if you don't clean it up in time, it may cause serious consequences, so she will order someone to help you go back to Yaoxian Pavilion, and the concubine is also for your good. ”

Zhang Yanjun didn't want to say more, "I know how much I drink, I drank a few more glasses tonight, but I haven't gotten drunk yet, and my wife is too worried." He paused for a moment and drove people away, "Now that the banquet is not over, Madame is afraid that she will not be able to leave for too long, so as not to end up with a poor reception." You go back, I don't need you here, just go back to Luoyunxuan, I can still get lost. ”

Madame Li didn't want to leave, and tried to persuade King Nanmu again, "But-"

The latter didn't want to listen anymore, waved his hand at her and didn't pay much attention to it, but walked away by himself, just passing by Mrs. Li.

Several servants hurried after him.

Mrs. Li looked at the majestic figure, but her heart was blocked.

The maid who was serving beside her understood her master's state of mind very well, and carefully comforted her at the moment, "Madam, don't think about it, the prince is afraid of neglecting the distinguished guests, so he persuaded you to return to the banquet." Moreover, you see that the prince walks in a land rover, and it doesn't look like he is drunk, and the lady doesn't have to worry about what will happen to the prince. ”

Mrs. Li didn't speak, but the silk handkerchief in her hand was tight and tight.

She stood in place, but she didn't show her emotions, turned around and went down the pavilion without saying a word.

When Mrs. Li was on her way back to Manxing Garden, Zhang Yanjun also paced on the bluestone road.

The wind in the night was very cold, blowing slightly, and when it hit his face, it could still make people feel excited, Zhang Yanjun only felt a little more sober.

The personal servant who followed him was worried that he would catch a cold, so he stepped forward and helped him tuck a furry fox fur around his neckline. I didn't dare to spend too much time for fear of making this master angry, but it was sorted out in three or two clicks.

The little servant followed him and whispered, "Master, do you want to send someone to invite Aunt Zhou to come over and talk to you later?" ”

Aunt Zhou is a down-and-out lady who was brought in by Zhang Yanjun after returning from Beijing, but she is very favored, and now she lives in the Invitation Moon Building. Since this one lived in the palace, except for the first and fifteenth days of the new year, King Nanmu would stay in Mrs. Li's Yaoxian Pavilion, and the rest of the time he spent half a month in the Yueyue Building, and the rest of the time he would rather stay in Luoyun Xuan or the study.

Seeing that his grandfather seemed to be unusually silent after retreating from the banquet, the little maid thought that it was probably because the master had something on his mind, so he mentioned the one who invited Yuelou.

Zhang Yanjun condensed his eyebrows, and his jaw tightened in the night.

"I want to be on my own, what do you want her to do?"

The little guy choked when he boarded, didn't dare to say more, and quietly stepped aside.

…… He has been serving this master for a long time, and it is the first time he has seen his own master mention that Aunt Zhou will be impatient.

Although there was a slight breeze at night, the moon above me was very bright, hanging high like a disc.

Zhang Yanjun walked in front of him without saying a word, and the servants behind him also followed silently, naturally not daring to speak indiscriminately.

I just got off an arched bridge, and after walking for a while, I turned the corner and saw a courtyard with two large lanterns burning under the eaves not far away, quiet and peaceful.

The little guy caught a glimpse of the plaque with the three words Qi Fengxuan written on it at a glance, and stopped in front of Zhang Yanjun when he landed, "Master, otherwise, let's go another way, it's the people who don't understand the rules, and they ......actually lead you to this road."

Qi Fengxuan is the residence of the former Nanmu Princess, and unlike Yaoxian Pavilion, his own father often runs here; If it weren't for the princess's fear that he would be sick, this lord would have wanted to live in it directly. It's just that as soon as the princess died of illness, this Qi Fengxuan suddenly became a forbidden place.

The ones that can be cleaned inside are all selected by the master himself, and it is said that the layout of the yard is kept as it is, and no one can move it. For this reason, the current lady even made a fuss, but she still couldn't even go in, which was worse than a domestic servant who could come and go freely to clean.

The personal servant couldn't help but sigh when he thought about it like this, and originally wanted to persuade a few more words, so as to save his grandfather from touching the scene. But he didn't want to, the master pushed him to the side, and went to Qi Fengxuan by himself.

"You wait here for me, don't follow me anymore."

He walked very fast, and when the little guy reacted, the person had already entered the yard, he caught up and took two steps, and stopped at the door and didn't dare to step over, so he had to shout at the back, "Master, don't stay too long, if there is anything, shout a little." ”

He was responded to by a string of footsteps that were neither light nor heavy.
