Chapter 36 Happy Events Are Rare

(pink 100 plus more)

If you want to inquire about the big and small things in Chang'an City, you don't need to run more places, go to the West Market Jingmenfang to find a time-honored tavern to sit, in the middle of the afternoon, a pot of good wine, two dishes of side dishes, the left and right tables and listen, it really doesn't work, a pair of chopsticks knocked on the edge of the plate, there are shop guys come up, look at the wine and food on the table to decide whether to waist or laugh.

"Guest, what else do you want?"

The thin young man in a satin green-edged brocade robe stretched out his finger and pointed to the vacant position on the side, and said with a smile: "Little brother sitting, there are not many guests here, talk to my son?" ”

"This-" Seeing that a piece of broken silver was turned over and rested on the table, the shopkeeper smiled, picked up the money and put it in his sleeve, sat on the bench with one leg crossed, and said to the young man cleverly:

"Listening to the childe's accent, with some Shuzhong flavor, I don't think I'm from Chang'an. If you have anything to ask, just say, the little ones who have been running through the hall in this miscellaneous market for six years must know everything and say everything. ”

"Haha," the young man smiled heartily, turned his hand and rested another piece of silver in front of him, and said, "I don't ask you much, I just want to inquire, in the past two years, there is something worth hearing in Chang'an City." ”

"There are a lot of things that can be heard, does Childe want to hear happy events, funerals, strange things or rare things?"

"Well, let's talk about the happy things first."

"Happy event, look at the prince is also a rich family, the small ones don't talk about those small families and listen to you, just talk about the happy events that have been ranked in the past two years, there are three things - one is in May of the year before last, before the eldest grandson queen fell ill, the emperor decreed that Princess Chengyang was married to the second son of Master Du Ruhui of Shangshu Du Ruhui."

"Huh?"

Listening to the young man's suspicious voice, the shopkeeper lowered his voice, leaned forward, and said: "Do you think too, Princess Chengyang is the queen's concubine, and Du Ergongzi is just the concubine of Lord Du, but it is said that this marriage is still asked by Princess Chengyang herself, because the queen died of illness the year before last, the marriage was delayed until October last year, and within half a month of marriage, Lord Du went - according to the truth, this marriage is not a stubble, you look at this mold." ”

"It's a royal matter whether you can ride or not, little brother, you go on."

"This second happy event was at the end of last year, the eldest lady of the eldest grandson family, Miss Changsun Xian, who is known as a talented woman, married the grandson of Lord Gao Shilian, Young Master Gao Zijian.

"This third happy event, hehe, at the beginning of this year, the emperor recruited a group of women from various families to enter the palace, and he was no longer immersed in the grief of the queen's death.

The light smile on the young man's face melted away, he nodded perfunctorily, and said, "Funeral Moti, let's talk about rare things." ”

"It's a rare thing, the small one here is a limerick made up by the first fang," the shopkeeper touched his throat, glanced at the wine in front of the young man, and the other party poured him a glass knowingly, drank it with a smile, and then said again:

"Cheng Nu is eighteen and does not worry about getting married, the sunset is stunning, Yuan Shi is not predictable, and the king of Wei is not returning to repair the book. The last sentence of this poem is about to be changed, and this afternoon I heard that His Royal Highness King Wei has recently returned to Beijing, and he will hold a banquet in Furong Garden on the eighth day of the new year. ”

The shopkeeper touched the silver in his sleeve with his hand, looked at the thin young man who was chewing slowly with the vegetables, and said, "Childe, do you have anything else to ask?" ”

The young man put down the chopstick, looked up and shook his head at him, smiled at him, put another piece of silver on the table, and got up and left, leaving the shopkeeper stunned with his hands on his sleeves, and for a long time he could hear the shopkeeper's voice call, and then he came back to his senses and patted his head.

"My mother, a man's family, looks good when she smiles"

Longquan Town, Puzhen Garden

"What about people?"

"Your Highness is asking about the little girl," Lu said, "Yu'er sent us back, and then went out, saying that she wanted to go to the Guogong Mansion to inform us first, and tomorrow our mother and daughter will go back to the mansion together to have a look." ”

The Lu family still didn't know that Lu Rongyuan's title had been downgraded by two levels and that the brand of the Guogong Mansion had been removed. She didn't tell a lie, she came from the southwest all the way, sent them to the house, she changed her clothes and went out, saying that she was going to Lu Rongyuan.

"When will you be back?" When Li Tai heard that she had come back after all, he relieved himself, glanced at Han Li who was smiling kindly at him behind the Lu family, and then looked at Mrs. Zhou, who was as usual, Pingzhou was over, so he sent someone to send the token he obtained to Pushaluo, but he didn't expect that this old woman would come back with Yiyu and his party.

"I went in the morning, and I didn't say when I would be back." The way back to Beijing was not so safe, but their car was old, weak, sick and disabled, but they arrived at their destination safely, although Han Li pressed the formation, but it was Yu Yu who took the idea, this year's time is enough for Lu Shi to know that this childhood soft temperament, and some unassertive daughter, in fact, is gradually growing into a person who can take charge of himself, therefore, what Yu is going to do now, where to go, Lu Shi will no longer study in detail.

"If the prince has nothing important, he might as well wait here." Han Li suddenly said loudly, he had only been in this house for a day, and he seemed to have become a person who could speak and call the shots, Lu Shi reacted slowly and did not notice it, but the two maids standing on the side frowned.

"No need," Li Tai thought about it for a while, and knew that Yu Yu had the intention to avoid him, although this realization made him feel tight, but he also knew that he might not be able to see people here.

"Mrs. Lu," Ah Sheng said respectfully on the side, "The eighth day of the master's first month is to hold a banquet in the Furong Garden, if Miss comes back, you can help tell me that as the unmarried concubine of His Royal Highness, it is necessary to have a banquet." ”

Lu Shi nodded, Li Tai glanced at Han Li who had no change in his smile again, and then turned around and left, Ah Sheng explained a few words to Lu Shi before saying goodbye and following.

After the master and servant walked away, human voices sounded in the flower hall.

"This is Li Tai, the man with the half mask? I only think that he has a different face, it turns out that he was born too handsome - well, it should be said that he was born too beautiful, the color of his eyes, tsk, that is, the emperor's son, then he is a Hu person? Han Shiyu smiled at Han Li in surprise.

"Even before arriving in Chang'an, words and deeds need to be disciplined," Mrs. Zhou turned around and walked to the chair and sat down, looked at Han Shiyu with a disapproving face, and said: "In the land of right and wrong, if you are not careful, you will cause disaster for everyone. ”

"I know," Han Shiyu replied perfunctorily, turned his head and put his arm around Lu's arm, "Mother, I took a nap in the morning, and I haven't had time to see this place yet, let's go shopping?" ”

The Lu family was thinking about taking a good look at the mansion that was built for her two years ago but had no chance to live, Mrs. Zhou said that she would go back and go again, so she went out of the flower hall with Han Shiyu, but Han Li didn't go with him.

Leading the way is the two people in the house, one combed the woman's hairstyle, the other still has the forehead hair, the two led the Lu family from the small garden, to the west, the verandah through the alley, from the front yard to the back hall, the garden to the small forest, the study to the incense room, a brick and a tile, grass and a tree, are the craftsmen's careful thinking, with flowers and pavilions and pavilions to make each other interesting, simple but not lose the style, style and elegance, deserve the name of this house "Puzhen Garden", is to return to the meaning of the basics.

"Look, there are a lot of birds carved on the eaves," Han Shiyu pointed to a small building for Lu Shi, "It's painted, as if real birds have landed on it." ”

Lu Shi looked at it, and it was also strange, and the young maid who combed the woman's hair on the side couldn't help but say loudly: "Madam, this is the young lady's idea, the mold of the bird was painted by her, and she said that you will like it when you see it." ”

Lu's expression was moved, Han Shiyu retracted his gaze, looked at the maid, and said, "No wonder this bird has been watching for a long time, which makes people feel uncomfortable." ”

Han Shiyu and Han Li were brought to Chang'an City by the Yu Yu envoy, because Han Li was not to blame, Han Shiyu also compromised, but she always felt that she was happy with the Lu family of three in Pushaluo City, and she did not hide her displeasure with Yu Yu.

Lu Shi frowned, and before he could say anything, the maid with the woman's hair replied dissatisfiedly, "When you come to live in someone else's house, it is better to be polite." ”

"What did you say?" Han Shiyu put away her smile and lowered her face, in Pushaluo City, she was feared by everyone, and Ashima who was held in the palm of her hand was choked by a slave now, and it was strange that she could endure it.

"I mean———"

"Xiao Man," Lu interrupted her, and said the name of the maid, but Xiao Man, who had been married two years ago and had served Lu and Yu Yu.

"Mother, let her say it." Han Shiyu raised his chin and squinted at Xiao Man, and said, "It's just a dilapidated house, if it weren't for her Lu Yiyu forcing us, who would love to live here." ”

"You-"

"Okay" Lu Shi shouted to stop their fight, pulled his hand out of Han Shiyu's arm, first glared at Xiao Man, and then said to Han Shiyu:

"If you don't like it here, move out with your father, there are a lot of idle houses in Longquan Town, I will rent one to you tomorrow."

After that, he stretched out his hand to the other maid and said, "Chen Qu, help me back to the room." ”

"Yes, ma'am." This is another little girl who served the jade back then.

"Mother, don't be angry, I didn't mean that" Han Shiyu stomped his feet and chased after him.

In another place, the Lu Mansion in Chang'an City, the two brothers of the Lu family are gathering together to discuss the return of the King of Wei to Beijing.

"Second brother, you say, let's go to King Wei's Mansion to deliver a post, send some gifts, and visit."

"It's not proper, we should take Xiaoyu back first, we have a very shallow relationship with King Wei, the gate of King Wei's mansion is not easy to enter, and she needs to be introduced."

"Well, that's the case, but I don't know if Xiaoyu is in Longquan Town or in King Wei's Mansion. Alas, this child is also ignorant, and she doesn't come back to see when she returns to Beijing, is she still blaming us for letting her be kicked out of Beijing after the incident happened that day? ”

"Big brother, you can't say that, it was she herself who proposed to leave Beijing to avoid trouble, no matter how you say it, I can't blame you and me. In my opinion, it is better to send someone to Longquan Town to have a look first, and then go to the palace to inquire about the news. ”

The two brothers agreed on the details, and just as they had drunk half a cup of tea at hand and went to do their errands, suddenly a servant preached outside the door:

"Master, there is someone outside the door who asks to see you."
