Chapter 87: Yongle Curie chats about gossip

The news that Zhao Zixiu and the Yi family are getting acquainted with each other and often come and go naturally has also spread to the Seven Princes' Mansion.

In the Qian'an Courtyard, Zhao Ziqian sat in the red sandalwood dragon pattern circle chair at the top and stared at the letter raft in his hand, his expression was dark and uncertain. Xiong Wei looked at the master with a cloudy face, and his heart was also uneasy, he seemed to mumble something, but he didn't dare to say it.

There was a bit of depression in the air, and I don't know if it was because of the lingering summer heat of early autumn, or because of something else.

Zhao Ziqian's cold eyes swept towards Xiong Wei, who wanted to stop talking, and said coldly: "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”

Kang Rui next to him silently pinched a handful of sweat for Xiong Wei when he heard this, His Royal Highness has been in a bad mood for the past two days, he is in a bad mood! You can take it easy, brother! He could only pray for Xiong Wei in his heart.

"I didn't say it...... I didn't say anything...... No, there's not much to say. Xiong Wei was even more frightened, he was not stupid, he could still see that His Highness was unhappy.

Zhao Ziqian glanced at Xiong Wei again when he heard this, looking like "if you don't say it, you will die"! So the latter withstood the pressure, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and said loudly: "Sister Xiangxiang will not rebel...... Let's change! After speaking, he opened his eyes and secretly looked at his Royal Highness's face, and sure enough, it was even darker.

The news from Tongzhou Kang Rui and Xiong Wei also read it, and Xiong Wei asked this question. And he can't figure it out, isn't this Xiangxiang sister with them? She coerced the other party before, how can she say that if you make friends, you will make friends? And there are no more principles!

If Yi Xiangxiang knew Xiong Wei's inner thoughts at this time, she would definitely tell him that his sisters had no principles.

"She's not on our side either!" Zhao Ziqian stated with a sneer.

Yi Xiangxiang has been rejecting contact with herself from beginning to end, and since she knew his identity, she couldn't wait to stay away from him, because Zhao Ziqian was very angry about the current situation.

Kang Rui sighed in his heart, and he expressed his helplessness about Xiong Wei's pot not being opened. He knew that His Royal Highness must have intended to win over Yi Xiangxiang, so he had only taken the person to the mansion and helped Huanxi Pavilion avoid the tracking of the second prince. But now that he accidentally let the other party pick up a chance to be close to the water, His Royal Highness must have been very angry in his heart, but Xiong Wei still said something about rebellion, isn't it nothing to look for!

But didn't His Highness remove all the people who were watching? How do you still know everything about Tongzhou? Conrey wondered.

In fact, Zhao Ziqian did withdraw all of them before, but because Zhao Zixiu was demoted to Tongzhou by the Holy Lord, he was worried that there would be variables, so he sent people again. Sure enough, this variable doesn't look like it's ordinary, and the news I received in recent days is how Zhao Zixiu made friends with the Yi family, and he and Yi Xiangxiang have changed from enemies to chess friends!

Zhao Ziqian and Yi Xiangxiang have also gotten along for a while, and they know that this person really has no pursuits, and the things he likes are nothing more than three things: money, food, and chess! And she only knew that she liked to play chess when she lived in Yi Mansion for a while, and Yi Luochuan also said that her favorite thing was Mr. Yu's chess class.

Now that Zhao Zixiu is doing what he likes, he is fighting on the chessboard with Yi Xiangxiang, which really makes Zhao Ziqian a little worried. He knew that his fourth brother's chess skills were not bad, and he often went to Mei Huanyuan to play against that Linghua, which showed that he was a preference for chess. It's okay, Zhao Zixiu and Yi Xiangxiang are like-minded and meet opponents, so it's difficult for the relationship not to improve!

Huh! This unproductive thing! Zhao Ziqian secretly complained about Yi Xiangxiang in his heart.

He was annoyed by Yi Xiangxiang's approachability, and secretly sighed how this person could play with anyone. And after all, she is a woman, can't she be a little reserved like a lady? Zhao Zixiu is also a man no matter how he says, the two of them stay together for three days, what kind of physique!

(Am I not human?) )

Zhao Ziqian knocked on the table and thought for a while and asked, "Which students in Tongzhou can directly participate in the Spring Festival next year?" He was asking Kang Rui.

Many people were removed from the previous case of selling officials, and it was because the saint opened Enke in advance. And the students who have already won the autumn festival will be able to participate directly in the spring festival next year.

When Kang Rui heard this, he immediately straightened his back and said: "There are many outstanding students in Tongzhou, the most outstanding are Yi Luochuan, the son of Yi Xihu, and Jiang Xuanrui, the son of Jiang Chengshen. Yi Luochuan will not participate in next year's Spring Festival, but he has already promised to accompany Jiang Xuanrui to Beijing. ”

Because the saint attaches great importance to next year's spring, Kang Rui has already done a detailed understanding. He naturally knew the news that Yi Luochuan needed to continue to precipitate, because the news was sent back along with the letter reporting Yi Xiangxiang's daily life.

"You go and arrange someone to post to these lifters, just say that now that the imperial court is thirsty for talents, the Seven Princes' Mansion will set aside another courtyard for them to live in advance, and it will also be convenient for everyone to communicate and discuss with each other...... Signal them to go to Beijing early to catch the exam. Zhao Ziqian still said to Kang Rui with a cold expression.

"But it's only early autumn! This...... This is still a few months away from next year's spring! Kang Rui didn't quite understand why His Highness would do this.

The territory of the Li Dynasty is vast, and some scholars who are far away should indeed leave at this time. But Tongzhou is connected to the Grand Canal, so why don't you go on the road now!

Zhao Ziqian didn't explain this in detail, he still knocked on the table one by one and said: "The reason is that you look at it, saying that you are afraid of freezing and cold on the road in winter, and that the spring time next year will be too rushed, etc., in the name of compassion, call everyone to Kyoto first!" ”

In fact, as long as it is said that the Seven Princes' Mansion has set aside an outer courtyard for living, there is generally no need to find any excuses. Now among all the princes of the Li Dynasty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince are participating in court affairs, and the people who are tying them up are all in a hurry! However, Zhao Ziqian deliberately said that he was compassionate, that is, he just wanted to go with the flow.

Kang Rui wasn't worried about what excuse to use, he thought about it for a while and then said the real concern in his heart: "If His Highness recruits students, will the Holy Lord be suspicious of His Highness?" ”

"It doesn't matter, this is the usual method of the fourth brother in the main hall, and the main hall is just plagiarizing! Or...... Or you said on that post that the palace knew that his father was eager to seek talents, and wanted to share his father's worries so that he secretly arranged this matter, so that everyone didn't have to deliberately say it. After that, the father will definitely know, and when the time comes, he will only be grateful that the main hall is a piece of filial piety. Zhao Ziqian said slowly to Kang Rui.

"Then we need to send invitations to all the state and county lifters?" Kang Rui asked after hearing Zhao Ziqian's analysis.

Zhao Ziqian shook his head and said: "No, now that my father sent Zhao Zixiu to Tongzhou, it is in the name of excavating the talents of Lusheng Academy, and it is more logical for us to recruit students from Tongzhou." He thought for a while and emphasized: "Don't think about it, secretly use the reason of recruiting talents for your father, don't deliberately put it on the surface, so that your father will not be suspicious when he finds out." That's right. I remember secretly giving Yi Luochuan a book, and the letter only said that in order to repay the previous treatment of Yi Mansion, the main hall had set up a banquet for him and Jiang Xuanrui in the mansion. ”

When Kang Rui heard this, he didn't know why, but he always felt that His Highness was cunning! Jiang Xuanrui has a bad relationship with his father Jiang Chengshen, but he is also father and son, and Jiang Xuanrui will inevitably be forced to live in Kyoto Jiang Mansion when he enters Beijing. But now that His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness has spoken out to solicit him, Jiang Xuanrui can justifiably live in the courtyard of the Seventh Prince's Mansion. His Royal Highness's move really relieved Jiang Xuanrui's siege, and Yi Luochuan, who is a friend of the latter, will definitely thank His Highness for his kindness.

Kang Rui had to praise his Royal Highness's good calculations, but why did he let Yi Luochuan and them enter Beijing in advance, Kang Rui still couldn't figure it out. But since His Highness has given orders, he naturally has to do it.

Xiong Wei, who was sitting on the side, did not listen carefully to the conversation between Zhao Ziqian and Kang Rui, at this time he was thinking about something, muttering to himself: "Jiang Xuanrui, there is also a Rui in the name?" Jiang Xuanrui...... Why does this name sound so familiar? Suddenly, he seemed to have a flash of inspiration and thought of something, so he excitedly asked Kang Rui next to him: "Jiang Xuanrui!" Was it the last time the shadow came back and said that Jiang Xuanrui, who took special care of Xiangxiang's sister? ”

Shadow was sent to spy on Yi Xiangxiang a while ago, and later asked Zhao Ziqian to call back. Although he went to Tongzhou again now, when he came back, he talked a lot about Yi Xiangxiang with Kang Rui and Xiong Wei, including his guess that Jiang Xuanrui seemed to love Yi Xiangxiang.

When Kang Rui heard Xiong Wei's question, he was so frightened that he hurriedly covered his mouth and pulled the person away!

O my brother! The name Yi Xiangxiang can't be mentioned now! Kang Rui complained bitterly.

Zhao Ziqian watched Kang Rui and Xiong Wei leave, and he lit the letter raft that came back from Tongzhou in his hand, and there was a hint of unclear haze in his eyes.

Mutiny? Yi Xiangxiang, if you can't help me, you definitely can't help others!

He watched the firelight burn the paper raft with Yi Xiangxiang and Zhao Zixiu into ashes little by little, and then showed a shallow smile.

At this time, Yi Xiangxiang, who was in Tongzhou, was taking a nap, and she dreamed that a big bad wolf kept chasing her, and then she was scared awake.

"How have you been having nightmares lately!" Yi Xiangxiang woke up frightened and kicked the quilt angrily.

Qing Xuan, who was outside, heard the movement and walked in, opened the tent and asked, "Miss is awake?" Do you want to sleep a little longer? ”

Yi Xiangxiang rubbed her eyes and said, "Don't sleep, let's go to Moxiang Pavilion later, I always feel that something is going to happen in the past two days, I have to meet Moxi, and let her be optimistic about Wuda Firm." ”

She's always been restless these days, but it's okay to look at it. After Mo Wen and the others came back from Kyoto, they all lived in the Huanxi Pavilion, Tan Pengtao was also brought back by them to teach, and the people looking for Liu Fangfei continued...... What is missing? Yi Xiangxiang always felt that she had ignored or forgotten something.

"Miss Moxi is measured, don't worry! Besides, now that there is the fourth young master to help him, there is no problem. Qing Xuan said a word of relief to Yi Xiangxiang.

Since the beginning of this year, Yi Hanxi no longer only manages the Wuda business in Kyoto, Yi Xiangxiang handed over half of the Wuda business in half of the states and counties of the Li Dynasty to Yi Hanxi, and the remaining half is naturally managed by Moxi.

Yi Xiangxiang sighed when she heard this: "This business is getting bigger and bigger, and there are always places that can't be taken care of." Although half of the shops have been allocated to the fourth brother, as more and more industries are involved, Moxi's affairs have never been easy at all, and I have to express my condolences! ”

If you want to say who earns the most and is the most idle in the Wuda business, it is naturally her big boss behind the scenes, it has been a long time, she is really a little embarrassed!

Qing Xuan shouted Xiaoxi to call someone to bring water to Yi Xiangxiang to wash, and asked Huali to make a cup of refreshing tea, and then she took the clothes from Shumei's hand to change Yi Xiangxiang's clothes, and after a series of actions, she said to Yi Xiangxiang: "Miss loves to worry about slaves and maids, but when it comes to concern, the old lady has mentioned several times that it is time to find a family for the fourth young master, but these two ladies are always pushing and shoving!" In this matter, the young lady has to help think of a way for the fourth young master. ”

Qing Xuan's meaning is very clear, no matter what Yi Hanxi says now, he is also helping his own young lady to do things, that is, his own people. She must be uncomfortable to look at her own people so aggrieved.

Xiaoxi brought in a basin of water from the door and put it on the shelf, Shumei stepped forward and wrung the handkerchief and walked over to clean Yi Xiangxiang's face, and said loudly: "The slave maid thinks that this matter is actually to blame Aunt Feng for being too high-profile, she is enjoying good fortune in Kyoto, and she should be low-key when she comes back for the New Year, why bother wearing gold and silver in the eyes of the second lady." Now it's okay, the concubine's family affairs are in the hands of the main mother, and the second lady will say that this girl is not good-looking, and the other will say that the girl has a bad character, and she can resist our old lady when she comes back! When will our fourth young master marry his daughter-in-law, maybe he can't tell! ”

Aunt Feng went to Kyoto to take care of her son Yi Hanxi with the permission of Yi Kangwen and his wife, and naturally returned to Tongzhou with Yi Hanxi on Chinese New Year's Eve. Shumei will have this complaint, because on Chinese New Year's Eve, Aunt Feng was dressed like a golden light, which made the second room lady Huang angry enough, so she deliberately delayed Yi Hanxi's marriage!

The painting on the side made a cup of tea for Yi Xiangxiang and brought it over, she put the cup in front of Yi Xiangxiang, and rolled her eyes at the book: "You don't understand, don't talk nonsense, the fourth young master's mother and son have suffered so many years at the hands of the second lady, and they finally raised their eyebrows, can you not show the second lady!" You see that on Chinese New Year's Eve, even Miss Six and Miss Seven were mouthful of one brother at the fourth young master, but they stammered! ”

"When you talk about this, I think about it, I also heard that the second master actually asked the fourth young master for money! Is this true or false? Shumei asked about the painting with a gossipy face, and then looked at Yi Xiangxiang with a blank look.

Yi Xiangxiang was just about to speak after taking two sips of tea, Xiaoxi took the dim sum handed in by the errand maid at the door, and walked over quickly to reply to Shumei: "This is true!" I heard Aunt Chun and Aunt Xia say it with my own ears, she secretly told Aunt Xia to come, and I heard it! Xiaoxi said proudly while bringing the dim sum to Yi Xiangxiang: "Miss, this is the dim sum just sent from the kitchen, and it's still hot." ”

Xiaoxi has been mentioned as one of the big girls before, and now she is also serving Yi Xiangxiang closely. And Aunt Chun and Aunt Xia in her mouth were originally Yi Ruonan's personal maids, one was called Chun Tao and the other was Xia He. Yi Ruonan was not allowed to bring maids to participate in the draft, but she did not arrange a good place for her personal maids, because later the Huang family wanted to sell people to people. So Chun Tao and Xia He discussed with each other, and after the two gritted their teeth, they both climbed into Yi Tangquan's bed and became the Chun Xia aunt in the second room.

Regarding the matter of Chun Tao and Xia He, Yi Xiangxiang still felt that it was quite mixed. They really don't have a choice, if they are sold, they don't know where they will be sold, and it is really helpless to come here to climb the bed.

Eh, Yi Xiangxiang can only sigh.

Qing Xuan packed up the bed at this time, walked over and scolded a few maids: "You guys are really getting more and more unruly, can you discuss the master's affairs?" When Sister Leqi comes back, I will play the board for you one by one! ”

Shumei said with a smile when she heard this: "Don't be afraid, Sister Leqi will not be back for at least a few months, and we must be cautious in our words and deeds at that time!" ”

Le Qi was diagnosed as pregnant a while ago, and because of the serious joy, Yi Xiangxiang ordered her to rest at home.

Yi Xiangxiang looked at a few maids, and she was quite happy when you came and went, so she asked Qingxuan not to be too restrained by them. Yi Xiangxiang also distributed pastries to everyone, and the master and servant chatted about the gossip of the family house together.

"I heard that my sister-in-law wanted to open her face to the maid next to her, but she was reprimanded by my brother?" Yi Xiangxiang asked Xiaoxi with a curious face, although she has little ears everywhere in Yi Mansion, she still doesn't know much about this kind of boudoir matter. And Xiaoxi knows a lot of gossip because of her good popularity.

Qing Xuan only felt that his own young lady was not kind when he heard this question, and Yi Luochuan was the only one in this Yi Mansion who could let the young lady call her brother directly, and the young lady didn't even let go of her brother's gossip, which really made people want to roll their eyes.

Xiaoxi pretended to nod mysteriously, and deliberately lowered her voice: "Yes, the maid next to the third young lady is named Manshuang, she told the slave maid in person, and the third young lady felt that her stomach had not moved, so she wanted to open her face." As a result, he was trained by the third young master! ”

"How? How is it trained? Shumei asked excitedly.

"She didn't say it too clearly, it seems that the third young lady has only been in the door for more than a year, so there's no need to be in such a hurry, they are still young or something......

Man Shuang was sent to serve Yi Luochuan at that time, and the latter knew what Jiang Jingshan meant, and called someone to give him a lecture. After Manshuang was sent out of the house, he really didn't hear what the people inside said, only to hear Yi Luochuan reassuring Jiang Jingshan not to be in a hurry.

"It's true that my sister-in-law is too impatient, and I'll let my mother comfort her when I go back, so that she won't go to the doctor in a hurry." Yi Xiangxiang said.

Jiang Jingshan has not been in the door for a long time, and it is normal that she has not yet conceived an heir. And to be honest, in Yi Xiangxiang's opinion, her brother and sister-in-law's age, in modern terms, have just gone to college! Love is just beginning to be able to talk, what kind of child to have!

Shumei said indignantly when she heard this: "It's not that the second lady is babbling about what heirs all day long, which makes our third young lady nervous." Really! Isn't this second young lady still pregnant, and I don't know what the second lady is dancing all day long! If you really care about the heir, why did you stop the marriage of the fourth young master again and again? ”

With Shumei's indignation, the topic returned to Yi Hanxi.

Yi Xiangxiang propped her head and thought, she didn't worry about her fourth brother's affairs, she originally had a plan: "I originally wanted to match the fourth brother and Fang Fei, but Liu Fangfei, a dead girl, played missing, and I was really angry!" She said with a sigh.

Liu Fangfei wants to leave behind the messy relationships in the family, and the best way is to get married.

In fact, after Yi Xiangxiang agreed to help Liu Fangfei arrange that day, she thought of a new method that night, that is, she first helped Liu Fangfei hide and get away for a while, and then waited for Liu Yuanwai to return to Centennial County, so she asked her father to take her second uncle and fourth brother to the door to propose. At that time, as long as Liu Yuanwai agreed, Mrs. Liu would not be able to stop it.

Of course, her method is a bit messy, but which of the people in the Li Dynasty is not an arranged marriage? Yi Xiangxiang felt that although her fourth brother and Fang Fei had very different personalities, they were both good, and they would inevitably be able to cultivate feelings after marriage.

It's just that she didn't expect that she hadn't told Liu Fangfei yet, and the latter ran away the next day!

Qing Xuan frowned when he heard this: "It's been a year, Miss Fang Fei may be deliberately hiding, Miss can't delay the fourth young master for her." ”

"Yes, I know. You go back and find out who your grandmother is fancy, so that people can check the details and the girl's character. As for the second lady, I'll think about it. ”

Eh, Yi Xiangxiang found that she was really heartbroken!
