Due to the guards of the Shicai Jin Palace, it was naturally difficult for the relatives of the Hou Mansion to come in, and although Su Mu Pepper was anxious outside, he could only wait there when he heard that it was the people of the Jin Palace. It wasn't until they saw that the group of people who were hugging each other had left, that the two of them hurriedly instructed people to wait outside the house, and then ran inside.

When they entered the house, they saw that Chen Lan's face was fine, so they breathed a sigh of relief, and Ai Ai stepped forward to salute during the busy period. Without waiting for them to finish speaking, Chen Lan smiled and said, "I don't blame you, since you are from the palace, you will naturally be stopped outside." ”

"It's all that old monk, there are so many people here, and he won't let the monk remind him as soon as possible!" Yun'er saw that Chen Yan was pointing out those gadgets to Chen Lan, and immediately pouted angrily, "It's a shame that our Hou Mansion sends so much silver to this temple every year, he can't even do this little thing!" ”

Qin Fang saw that Chen Lan just didn't say a word, so he shouted beside him: "Yun'er, don't talk nonsense, if the prince of Jin asks Master Zhiyong to keep quiet, how dare he remind us?" ”

Chen Lan unfolded the fan, took a closer look and picked up the dagger, and then poured all the gold and silver bills in the purse on the table, and saw that there were four plum blossom-style gold bills, four begonia-style silver bills, and the purse was meticulously stitched, and there was a mark embroidered in the corner, she vaguely remembered that there were several things at home with this mark, which should be from the royal supervisor's embroidery room. After a moment of thoughtful thought, her brow furrowed.

Sure enough, if the King of Jin had long wanted to meet their sister and brother, he should not have prepared this kind of purse and gold and silver bills that are the most common for the New Year's Festival. Since it has just been avoided, this incident should be considered in the past, but it must be guarded against in the future.

However, Luo Xu, the prince of Weiguo, and Yang Jinzhou, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, have some meaning, although the Holy Hand Liu is not worshiped in the palace, but he is known for asking for money for death, and a fan is often sold for hundreds of taels and thousands of taels, and this fan is definitely worth a lot of money. And the horn dagger of Yang Jinzhou, the commander of the brocade guard, looks simple, but it is actually very sharp, and it is also a self-defense thing. According to Chen Yan, he used to talk for a while, and wrote poems with other Qing guests, and chanted a pair of couplets, and then the king of Jin gave the purse, and the other two immediately gave these two things as a meeting gift, as if they didn't think much about whether the things were valuable and suitable.

A worship provoked so many people, although the King of Jin and his entourage had already left at this time, Chen Lan was completely out of the mood to visit this Huguo Temple. Seeing that the girls had packed up their things, she pulled Chen Yan out of the house. I saw that the Bodhi Monastery, which was still heavily guarded just now, was already empty, and only the red plum was still blooming fiery and gorgeous.

After meeting with a group of family guards, a group of more than a dozen people walked out along the path of the temple. After passing the Scripture Pavilion, Chen Lan saw several people coming towards him. In addition to the robed Zhiyong and the two little novices, there is also a young man with a strange face and a small servant. The boy was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a sable fur and a blue silk jacket, but the lazy appearance of walking with his hands crossed, and the lazy atmosphere on his face, showed a feeling of being a rich idler.

As soon as the two looked at each other, Zhiyong was stunned, and then smiled: "Third Miss, is this ready to leave?" It's rare to come back, but the old man didn't have time to entertain. I heard that the third lady is still a little unwell, and the old lady has newly picked out pine nuts here, and making tea is the best. As he spoke, he said a word to a little novice behind him, and then as if he had just thought of another person beside him, he smiled and said, "By the way, the old man has forgotten that the third lady was resting in the house just now, and I have never seen it, this is the prince of Weiguo." ”

This is Luo Xu, the prince of Weiguo?

Chen Lan couldn't help but glance at Chen Yan on the side, and seeing that he nodded at herself, she hurriedly saluted.

And at this time, Luo Xu also smiled and said: "I just sent His Highness away, I turned back again, and I was about to go to find the third miss and junior brother Chen, but I didn't expect to meet here so coincidentally." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Yan, and saw that he was holding his own fan in his hand, with the sheep's horn dagger in his waist, and his face suddenly smiled deeper: "Speaking of which, today I was dragged out by His Royal Highness the King of Jin to play, and I don't know if I will meet someone, where to prepare any meeting gifts, even this fan...... Ahem, I really don't want to go, I love to smudge a few strokes since I was a child, this is my imitation of the Holy Hand Liu's brushwork, in fact, it is a fake. It's okay to keep it for fun, but it's disrespectful as a meeting gift. ”

Seeing that Chen Yan's eyes were wide, he nodded at him with a smile, and said with a smile: "So, Fan Brother Chen, you keep it and play, but don't tell people that it is the Holy Hand Liu, lest the one who wants money come to me for trouble." As for the real meeting gift, at the moment I am really breezy with two sleeves, and I have nothing but gold and jade, so I don't want to give you those mundane things, next time you come to play in my home, I will definitely make up for it. Oh, if the third lady has time, she may as well come with her, my mother is the most hospitable, and she will be glad to see you. When I got home, I asked someone to send the post, and it happened that my mother had mentioned that she wanted to invite Cousin Xi last time. ”

At this moment, not to mention that Chen Yan was dumbfounded, several girls and family members were dumbfounded, Chen Lan was stunned for a while, and then smiled: "If it weren't for the son of the world to remind me, no one would know that this face is just imitation." As for the prince's kind invitation, our sister and brother have understood it, but now that there is something at home, I'm afraid it will ......."

"The hundred-year-old family of the Hou Mansion has not experienced wind and rain, at most it is just a thunderstorm, the third lady and junior brother Chen don't have to think too much."

Luo Xu smiled slightly, as if he didn't take Chen Lan's words to heart at all, and then calmly gave a salute, said a word to Zhiyong, and left with the little guy Shi Shiran.

Chen Lan went out for the first time in her life, and she always had an inexplicable vigilance towards strangers, so she really didn't expect this prince of Weiguo to behave like this. It wasn't until she disappeared from sight with her little servant that she came back to her senses. At this time, Zhiyong also stepped forward with the little novice.

"The third lady forgives the sin, after His Royal Highness and his entourage left, Lao Qu really didn't expect the prince to turn back again, and he insisted on pulling Lao Qu to the house." Zhiyong was maneuvering among the powerful, and naturally knew that the two families of Yangning Hou and Wei Guogong were a little incompatible, and at this time, he was afraid that Chen Lan's sister and brother would say something after they went home, and the Chen family would find bad luck on his head, so he was naturally busy brushing it off, "Wei Guogong has been guarding in the south, but the prince has been staying in Jingshi, but he is not concerned about civil and military affairs, and his lazy and casual temper is also famous for his lazy and casual temper. ”

Chen Lan pondered Luo Xu's words carefully in his heart, and naturally said to Zhiyong that he didn't care, but he still couldn't let go of this matter in his heart.

Along the way, Jiyoung sent them out again, and he had to apologize for what he didn't come to greet him in the first place. When he reached the mountain gate, he took two more paper bags from the little novice's hand, and presented them with both hands with a smile.

"This bag is pine nuts, whether it is made of tea or snacks under the festival, it is not a valuable thing, it is produced in the temple itself. This bag of wild tea happened to be sent by a junior brother of my wandering, although it was scattered and did not look good, but it was a fragrance, and the third lady took it back to make it fresh. ”

Zhiyong said, and a little novice came up with a plate, but there were seven or eight amulets of all kinds on it, Chen Lan hurriedly asked the red snail to accept it, after all, this is what she specially instructed when she came to the Zhu family this time - there are a lot of talismans that are recited by the monks every year in Huguo Temple, but most of them flow into the mansions of the powerful in this way, and only a very few are rich businessmen and landlords who ask for it.

boarded the carriage, and when the curtain was lowered, Chen Lan took the hand stove handed over by Qin Fang, and then Chen Yan, who had been holding back his words just now, let out a long breath, and then grinned, and directly stuffed the fan into Chen Lan's hand: "I knew that the prince of Weiguo was famous for being lazy, but if he didn't say it, I really didn't know that this fan was not the Holy Hand Liu's, and even the marks were vivid!" Sister, you keep this for me, don't look at it as an imitation, when there is something urgent, I will take it and sell it for money as a genuine product. ”

Despite something in his heart, Chen Lan couldn't help but laugh, and then handed the fan to the red snail on the side to put it away. Gently lifted the curtain and looked outside, near noon Xuanwumen Street from time to time there are cars and horses passing by, still bustling, some pedestrians on the road have sad faces, some are jubilant, some talk and laugh, some scold, it is not the same. Thinking of her experience for most of the day, she smiled, and was about to lower the curtain, but her eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of a person on the street over there.

Almost as soon as she cast her gaze, the man happened to look at him, and then swept over as if unconscious. Recognizing the man, her heart jumped, and she quickly lowered the curtain.

Seven or eight neatly dressed family members surrounded the two cars with the mark of the Yangning Marquis Mansion, plus the rare double flying swallows on the streets of Jingshi, and the pedestrians on the road were busy retreating. And when the group passed through the West Fourth Archway where Fuchengmen Street and Xuanwumen Street intersected, Yang Jinzhou, who was riding a horse, turned out of Fuchengmen Street with two entourages, looked thoughtfully at the line in the distance, and then asked without looking back.

"The emperor has gone? Are you sure no one has ever reported to the temple? ”

"Yes, the North Town Fuji who only entered two quarters of an hour ago. King Jin won't know until he goes back, at least. ”

"That's good."

Yang Jin Zhou spit out three words like gold, then turned the horse's head, raised the horsewhip and whipped it heavily, and galloped out at a gallop.
