There was a lively scene in the house, and a doorman came in to report, "The prince and princess, and the officials are all waiting in the front yard, waiting for the New Year." ”

The eyebrows painted this morning were not good, Rong Zhao asked Mo Yu to redraw her over and over again, Menzi suddenly came to report, Mo Yu's hand trembled, and the sharpened eyebrows poked into Rong Zhao's eyes.

Rong Zhao was in pain and screamed.

Xiao Junjue's expression suddenly turned cold, and he slammed Mo Yu far away with one hand, hitting the table, his forehead was scratched by the corner of the table, and he immediately bled like an infusion.

"Is there anything wrong?" Xiao Junjue nervously held Rong Zhao's face, Rong Zhao subconsciously reacted to close his eyes, and thanks to this instinct, the tip of his eyebrows only scratched his eyelids, and did not poke them in, but his eyelids were also red.

Tears flowed down, Rong Zhao didn't cry, just reacted naturally, but Xiao Junjue thought that he had touched his eyeballs, and shouted: "Doctor, doctor." ”

The house was in a mess, and the lonely bird was shouted back to his senses by the roar of the prince, and he was just about to run to find the doctor, but he was stopped by Rong Zhao, "I'm fine." ”

She slowly opened her eyes, stopped her tears, and saw Mo Yu covering her forehead and bleeding, she wanted to scold her, but seeing that her injuries were not light, she gave up, "Find her a doctor, she is seriously injured." ”

Xiao Junjue glanced at Mo Yu with a sullen face, and scolded angrily: "How do you serve your master?"

The blood on Mo Yu's forehead was dripping down her hand, she got up and knelt on the ground, kowtowing incessantly, and blood was sprinkled all over the ground.

Seeing red on the first day of the new year is not a good sign. Xiao Junjue looked at the bad luck, and the anger in her heart filled in even more.

"Get out of here and get fined. He shouted.

Mo Yu's eyes were red, and he didn't know what was wrong, if it was in the past, someone was so careless to serve, Rong Zhao would have been furious, and he would have been disabled if he was not killed. But maybe now that I have a child, my heart has become softer, and I can't see people crying.

"Okay, forget it, she didn't mean to. Today is the first day of the new year, and it is not good to be punished on the first day of the New Year. Rong Zhao interceded for her.

Xiao Junjue blew Rong Zhao's eyelids, and waited until it was not so red before speaking, "For the sake of the princess's face, I will let you go once today, and next time I am so careless, I will be punished twice." ”

And said: "In the future, she is not allowed to serve in front of the princess." ”

When Mo Yu left the room, when he heard this, his back stiffened, and he ran out crying.

Rong Zhao looked in the mirror and was not disfigured, which was reassuring. She stared at Xiao Junjue, he was really scared of her when he was angry just now, she had never seen Xiao Junjue lose her temper so much, she even moved her hands.

But looking at his nervous appearance, he wanted to laugh again, and joked to him, "Are you afraid that I am blind and can't take me out of the door, and I will lose the face of your King Chu?"

Xiao Junjue glared at her, "Yes, I'm ready to change to a princess." ”

Rong Zhao thrashed him, "You dare!"

A small episode, brought in a few jokes, Xiao Junjue's face eased, and Rong Zhao's eyebrows were redrawn by Gu Yu.

Rong Zhao wore a big red phoenix and a peony skirt jacket, combed a beautiful startling bun, two golden steps on the left and right, and a few hairpins and gem pearls embellished, which was generous and extravagant.

Xiao Junjue went to the front yard, and Rong Zhao couldn't be idle, so he went to Xian Sitang instead, where there were still the daughters of the officials waiting.

There is a dragon burning in the string hall, warm and baking, the incense in the middle is burning incense, and there are tea, snacks and fruits on each small table.

A few ladies drank tea slowly, but this was up and down in their hearts, and after waiting for a long time, before the princess arrived, a few people muttered.

"I heard that this princess of Chu is a powerful character, for so many years, the king of Chu has not even had a maid by his side. A woman with a round face and a fat waist and a blessed face was the first to talk about it.

She is not the daughter of an official, she is the eldest wife of Huang Xiaoting, the richest man in Yizhou City, and the beautiful woman sitting next to her is Huang Xiaoting's second wife, Qian.

But even if she is the richest man, she is still inferior in front of the officials, and the two of them sit at the back.

The corners of Qian's eyes fluttered lightly over her face, and with a disdainful look, she put down the teacup and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, "That's the princess of Chu who has high means and can tie up a man." ”

She has always been at odds with Ni, she is jealous at home, and she is also a snatch when she talks outside.

"That's not enough to have a shameless person to pounce up and seduce other people's men. Ni didn't look at Qian, but he meant something.

She was happy to come to the Chu Palace, how could she think that the lord asked her to bring the Qian family here, it must be that the Qian family blew the wind by the old man's pillow all night last night, otherwise, how could there be a reason for her to sit here as a concubine.

"This man has another woman, and that is also his own woman who is not capable. Qian's voice was very small, just to Ni, she is not the brainless person, everyone here is in the main room, if she says something unpleasant, she will offend all people.

She smiled and looked at Ni, "Eldest sister, your appetite must be very good recently, I see that this dress has lost some weight." I really envy you, look at me, I can't get fat by eating. ”

Ni was angry, she was as thin as a hemp stalk, and she dared to sarcastically mock her for being fat!

The person next to him played a round game, "It's a good thing to have a good appetite, and it's a blessing to be fat." ”

The woman sitting at the head sat upright and said, "Don't talk nonsense when the princess comes, don't make the princess unhappy." ”

As he was talking, the people outside sang until the princess arrived, and everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Rong Zhao Shi Ran walked in slowly, his phoenix eyes swept lightly, passed everyone, and walked to the upper seat.

"No need to be polite, just sit down. After sitting down, Rong Zhao looked at them seriously.

The first person in the lower left is a woman about thirty-five years old, with a good color, delicate and elegant, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, just right, and it makes people look comfortable.

Lonely Bird introduced her before, the wife of Yizhou Mengdu Wei Nianci, from a scholarly family, her grandfather reviewed the old and the new Zeng official worshiped the bachelor of Hanlin, and specially drafted an edict for the emperor. His father was also a learned man, and he was a tanhualang for the twelfth year of Yonghe.

The marriage between Meng Duwei and his wife was also rumored to be a good story, and I heard that the father of the lady at that time was sent here as an official, and Meng Duwei, who had just become a deputy general, went to greet him. Miss Wen, who was sitting in the carriage, was curious, so she rolled up the curtain and looked out, but the silk handkerchief in her hand flew out of the window as if it had long legs, and directly called out on Meng Duwei's face.

The two looked at each other, just one glance, it was ten thousand years, and they looked at each other. Brother has a mistress who is interested, and the next day Meng Duwei went to propose his wife, because he was afraid that he would be too late and be robbed by others.

Father Wen saw human poison, and when he saw Meng Duwei for the first time, he felt good, and he didn't even hesitate, and immediately responded to this family business.

Miss Meng, who is also a loss, has intentions, otherwise she would not have to sing a drama of escaping from marriage.

When Meng Duwei proposed his marriage, he promised that there was only Miss Meng alone in this life, even if his father-in-law Lao Weng had died for many years, he still kept his promise and ended up with his wife.

Such a story was also made up into a story by storytellers on the streets and alleys, and it was called "Amorous Man and Amorous Girl".

Rong Zhao also listened, and now he has seen the main master.

On the first seat on the right-hand side, there is a woman who looks like she is in her forties with heavy makeup, wearing a goose-yellow flower-sprinkled skirt, and a large peony flower embroidered with gold piping.

Vulgar and vulgar, elegant and indecent.

can sit in this position, her husband should also be one of the top high-ranking officials in Yizhou now.

Seeing Rong Zhao looking at her, the gorgeous woman got up, bent her knees, and said, "The courtier is the family member of the Zhizhou Duan, the Bai family. ”

He Yingming's case is widely implicated, and most of the people involved in it are beheaded and dismissed if they are close, and only Zhizhou Duan is lucky and still in his position.

It's not that he wasn't implicated, but he replaced all the officials for a while, and it was the New Year's Festival, which was really inappropriate, and Duan Pet was a light person, not a great evil, Xiao Junjue pretended to be a color to him, taught him a lesson, and retained his official position.

Moreover, after training in Beijing in the past few years, Xiao Junjue also understands a little bit of the way of officialdom and court, and sometimes, you might as well pretend to be deaf and dumb.

And with this time, Duan Pet also escaped death, if he was smart, he would also restrain himself, and he would not dare to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Moreover, although Duan Pet is a little greedy, he is a master of solving cases, Xiao Junjue has checked the cases he handled before, and there are few unjust, false and wrongful cases, which is why Xiao Junjue kept him.

Rong Zhao was not familiar with these officialdoms, but he heard that she was a member of the Zhizhou family, so he couldn't help but take a few more looks.

She has seen Duan Pet, dignified, elegant and graceful, in the prime of men's good years, looking at more than 30 people. But Bai looked at least ten years older than him, why would a handsome man marry a cheesy and old woman? Is it a habit?

Rong Zhao didn't know that although the Bai family looked like he was in his forties, he was only thirty. It's just because Duan Pet studied and participated in the imperial examination, but his parents are still alive at home, and if he blindly reads, he will not be able to worship.

Between the dilemma, Bai stepped forward, on the one hand, to earn money for his education, and on the other hand, to support his family. Rural people don't have anything to do, nothing more than guarding the crops with their heads to the soil and their backs to the sky.

But that one-third of an acre of land can provide him with education, but it can't provide for the family's work.

In this way, the Bai family went to the fields during the day and worked at night to fill the household. During this period, Duan Pet did not pass the examination for the first time, you must know that the imperial examination is only once every three years, and I wanted to give up. But Bai resolutely let him read it, and he has been suffering for three years, so he is not afraid of another three years.

The first reading of this book is six years, and six years of greed and darkness get up early, and the torture of a beautiful woman is ten years old.

Fortunately, this pet is not Chen Shimei, she did not abandon her wife and children, and she took the exam again three years later, won the champion in one fell swoop, and took the family to her side.

The Bai people are old, rude and rude, get along with the official's wife, and make a lot of jokes. If this is another man, maybe he will not divorce his wife, but also throw him at home to prevent him from going out and lose face, or marry a few more rooms.

But this pet is a single-minded, spoiled wife as before, even if it is developed, he does not marry a woman next to him.

Once when he was drunk with someone, he talked about his wife and said that what he owed to the Bai family would be repaid for the rest of his life.
