Text Chapter 41: Chrysanthemum Feast

Yi'er's words were quite polite, clearly pointing out that King Tang was meddling in other family affairs, and she was not even as good as an ignorant woman and child in terms of etiquette.

The expression on King Tang's face changed slightly, and he snorted coldly, and said: "Miss Du is really articulate, but Miss also said just now that the parents ordered the matchmaker, this king just saw that there are many young talents in the Du Mansion today, and on a whim, they want to be an iceman, whether they succeed or not, of course, it is still agreed between Lord Du and his wife!" ”

After that, without waiting for Du Ziwu to react, Tang Wang then pointed to a person and said: "Lord Du, this son of Zhu Tong's prefect is a talent, personable, not to mention the origin of family education, he himself was the ninth place in the three states of northern China last autumn, and the title of the gold list is just around the corner." This king thinks that this Zhu Gongzi and Miss Du are talented and beautiful, but they are a rare pair of wall people, I don't know what Lord Du thinks? ”

Tang Wang's words were sudden, many people did not react, and when the words landed, not only Du Ziwu and others were stunned, but also Zhu Youzhen, who was named, was also in a trance, and Zhu Gui, who knew the same thing, stood up and looked at Tang Wang a little overwhelmed!

No one would have guessed that the object of Tang Wang's matchmaker would be Zhu Youzhen!

During this period of time, Du Ziwu had a lot of contact with Zhu Youzhen, he admired this young man very much, and he also had thoughts in this regard, but he did not say to the Li family, this time Yi'er is still young after all, he estimated that the Li family was not willing to give her lifelong events so early, and now the water in Beikaecheng is a little muddy, and Zhu Gui's position is unclear, at this time, of course, he does not dare to implicate his daughter's family affairs with the political affairs of Beikaicheng.

Yi'er was annoyed in her heart, even if Tang Wang really just wanted to be an iceman, the elders in the family were still there, where was the iceman who spoke to people in front of his daughter's family, and the object of the talk was still on the spot? This is going to be replaced by another woman, and she has long been ashamed and angry, covering her face and running away! Yi'er saw that Li's face was anxious and worried about her body, so she hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and Li patted Yi'er's hand to show comfort.

Du Ziwu looked at Zhu Gui, who was a little at a loss, and said, "Lord Zhu, since Your Highness wants to make this iceman for the two of us, the official wants to ask, is this what Lord Zhu means?" ”

Zhu Gui hurriedly shook his head and said, "Misunderstanding, don't hide it from Lord Du, the officials didn't know about it at all before!" ”

Du Ziwu looked at Zhu Youzhen again and said, "Then Zhu Gongzi ......"

Zhu Youzhen bowed and said: "Xiaosheng is the way of the saint, the saint talks about etiquette, no matter how confused the Xiaosheng is, he also knows the etiquette, the rules, there is no rule and there is no square circle, the father and the family are kind, how can the little student go over his parents and talk to His Royal Highness?" ”

Tang Wang smiled and said: "Master Du, don't ask, it's true that no one asks me, this king just looked at the talented and beautiful woman, for a while, Meng Lang, I'm afraid that I have messed up the mandarin duck spectrum, but it's just ......" He looked at Zhu Youzhen and said, "This king wants to ask Zhu Gongzi, is it possible to be a wonderful lady like Miss Du, and Zhu Gongzi has not looked at it?" ”

This question was unreasonable, and it was also asked viciously, Zhu Youzhen turned sideways slightly, and said: "Lord Du's mansion is noble, Xiaosheng is just a white body, since ancient times, he pays attention to the right door, Xiaosheng and Miss Du, the door is not right, the household is wrong, I really don't dare to think about climbing high!" ”

Tang Wang said: "This king has also heard a sentence, called don't bully the poor youth, Zhu Gongzi has been promoted now, who dares to say that his son can't soar to the sky and become famous?" ”

Zhu Youzhen said: "Your Highness's auspicious words!" It's just that what His Royal Highness said, after all, is a conjecture, it is a vain possibility, if Xiaosheng wants to fill in the chips for himself with this vain imagination, no matter how bad Xiaosheng is, he will dare to do it! ”

Tang Wang was stunned, the expression on his face changed, he glared at Zhu Youzhen, and said coldly: "Good, good, what a young man with high ambitions!" ”

Zhu Gui saw that King Tang was angry, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness is angry, it is because the lower officials have no way to teach on weekdays, and the dogs are used to being formless, Your Highness must not be like him!" ”

Tang Wang sat back in the chair stupidly, only glanced at Zhu Gui coldly, and did not speak again, until the next person was ready, and was about to start the banquet, Tang Wang suddenly stood up and confessed to Du Ziwu, only saying that there were still some things that needed to be dealt with urgently, so he took Wei Ling straight away.

Although the Tang King is gone, the chrysanthemum banquet in Du Mansion still starts on time, but the faces of the people who enter the banquet are different!

Not only for the chrysanthemum feast, but the banquet is opened, and the chrysanthemums will naturally not be less. Mama Sun in the flower room of Dufu is the bridal grandmother brought by the Li family, there is quite a fire on the flowers and plants, and she is particularly good at the cultivation of chrysanthemums, this chrysanthemum banquet is said to be an elegant thing, in fact, it is just to move the table from the house to the yard, and put all kinds of chrysanthemums in pots around it, but the chrysanthemums cultivated by Mama Sun are varied, and the face is good, plus it is in September, the season of autumn chrysanthemums is in full bloom, and the pots of chrysanthemums are really beautiful.

Although a banquet was made by the Tang King, it was not brilliant, but it was also decent, and it was barely a pleasure for the guests and hosts.

After a short rest after the meal, some people began to thank and say goodbye one after another, and the Tongzhi wife Tian was obviously still thinking about starting the matter of Tang Wang's proposal, afraid that Li and Yi'er would blame Zhu Youzhen's head, so he took Li's hand when he left, and stopped talking several times, looking embarrassed.

Li said: "Many things, we all know in our hearts, don't think about it anymore, we are not unreasonable people, we will not do things that do not distinguish between right and wrong, and blame others!" ”

Tian was relieved at this time, and left with a smile.

didn't sit for long, Yun Da Lady Qu also said goodbye and left, according to Yun Xuan's temperament, she naturally didn't want to leave, but where could Qu be affected by her temperament? I couldn't help but say that I took the person away.

Yi'er sent people out of the Hanging Flower Gate, watched Qu and Yun Xuan get into the carriage, and slowly drove out of the side door, and then led Qing Li to turn around.

Yi'er naturally didn't notice that when she sent Yun Ying's mother and daughter out of the weeping flower door, in front of the door of the inverted seat room, Dong Er, who came to Du Mansion to deliver food, looked at her from a distance, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. ”

The little guy said angrily: "I said you are a food delivery person, where do you look at your eyeballs?" That's the eldest lady in our house, don't do anything stupid, say something stupid, and then invite some trouble, don't blame me for not reminding you! ”

This Dong Er is burly, at first glance he is a good hand of hard work, his face is covered with a sweat towel, covering most of his face, at this time he smiled innocently, and said: "I saw that young lady's style, at first glance, he is the young master of a rich and noble family, so I said casually, hehe, where can I cause any trouble?" ”

The little servant glanced at him and said, "Speaking of this young lady in my family, it's not that I'm bragging." Miss was exiled at a young age, and it is estimated that she has suffered hardships, but what if you don't say that she is a noble lady? The blood in the bones is more noble than people like you and me, you see, how long has it been since I came back, and now my demeanor and demeanor are not comparable to those young ladies who have been pampered since childhood! ”

Dong Er said flatteringly: "Little brother has also seen the young lady of the Hou Mansion?" ”

"My lord is the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion who was born in the capital, what's so strange about me seeing Miss Houfu? Besides, my young lady is still the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion! ”

"Did Miss really grow up in the folk before? How could this young lady of the Hou Mansion end up in exile? Little brother can't be a lie, right? ”

"What did I lie to you? Do you know why there is a banquet in the house today? ”

"Why?"

"This banquet is called the Confession Party, which is specially held for my young lady, will this be fake?" The little guy smashed his mouth, glanced at Dong Er again, and said, "Why did I say you had nothing to do to inquire about our house?" ”

Dong Ergan laughed twice and said, "Isn't this curious? ”

The little guy said: "The dishes in the dealer's lady's store are fresh, Steward Pei said, in the future, the dishes in our house will be the first choice to enter from the dealer's lady's shop, but the dealer's lady personally sent the dishes over, how did you send it today?" ”

"Didn't you say it when you entered the door, our host was not feeling well, so he sent me to send it temporarily!"

This rhetoric around her, Yi'er naturally didn't know, the guests in the house were finished, Yi'er could breathe a sigh of relief, when she went back to the main house to talk to Li, Du Ziwu was talking to Li about the Tang Wang's relatives at the banquet, and the couple sent all the girls out, and then beckoned Yi'er to come into the house and sit down.

Yi'er knew that Du Ziwu and his wife had something to say to her, and she was afraid that what they wanted to say was still very important.

Du Ziwu thought for a while, and then said: "Iris, today the Tang King suddenly wants to marry you and Zhu Gongzi, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Yi'er thought about it seriously, shook her head and said, "My daughter doesn't know, but my daughter always thinks that Tang Wang's move should not be a whim or a sudden idea!" ”

Du Ziwu said: "Some of these things involve the government, and my father didn't want to tell your mother and daughter, but today King Tang actually hit the idea on the head of the kite, and the father thinks that maybe you still know a little bit about some things!" ”

Du Ziwu took a breath and continued: "For the emperor's grace for my father, I am the governor of the state capital, but it has been almost a month since I took office, and many things are still a mess, and there are few results, just because of it, it is on His Royal Highness King Tang!" The Tang King has a noble status, and he is a Qincha, in political affairs, with his constraints, it is indeed difficult to be a father! ”

"And the subordinate officials of the state government, through the sentence of Lord Xie, the official Lord Xue is fine, although they are not completely on the side of the father, but they are all direct ministers, can distinguish which decrees benefit the people, which decrees pit the people? And only Master Zhu, who knows Tongzhi, although he is respectful to his father on the surface, can see that he has already taken refuge in His Royal Highness King Tang! ”
