Xu Kuang's sudden visit, Ling Huaishu County Lord didn't speak for a long time, Zizhu frowned and said, "What is he doing here?" Doesn't that add fuel to the fire? You go and tell Lord Xu that the county lord is not feeling well and will not see him. Lord Huaishu muttered, "Xiluo, go and bring Lord Xu here." Shen Xiluo bowed and said, "Yes!" ”

Xu Kuang lowered his head and followed Shen Xiluo to Lord Huaishu. He looked up and saw the county lord of Huaishu, Jin Zan Yuer, Luo Qiwenxiu, and graceful sitting on the Taishi chair, only to feel that the county lord of Huaishu was as soft, graceful, elegant and sensual as a fairy. Xu Kuang didn't dare to look any more, and hurriedly said: "Xiaguan Xu Kuang knocked to see the county lord." ”

Lord Huai Shu said: "Lord Xu is exempt!" Come on, set your seats! The sound lingered, which made Xu Kuang's heart move.

Xu Kuang sat down, and the servant he brought stood behind the seat. Lord Huaishu smiled and said, "I don't know why Lord Xu came to visit the house on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Xu Kuang nodded with a smile and said: "The lower officials came to congratulate the county lord on the festival, and specially presented Suzhou-style moon cakes to the county lord to taste; Second, I heard that the county lord encountered a cold wind and did not enter the palace to admire the moon on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I came to greet him; The three officials showed their hearts, swore to marry the county lord as his wife, and hoped that the county lord Yucheng. ”

Hearing this, Zizhu shouted, "Hey! Didn't I make it clear last time? Why are you still cheeky to talk nonsense, shameless! ”

Lord Huaishu said: "How can Lord Xu, as an official of the imperial court, be so self-respecting, and what kind of system he has become. What's more, Lord Xu has his own good couple, so why bother to come here regardless of his identity, and spread it out, wouldn't Lord Xu destroy his future. Xu Kuang stood up and said solemnly: "I am here for my life's events, not the county lord's mouth." It is not an impulse to take the liberty of proposing marriage tonight, and if the county lord does not agree to this family business, he should not push it to others. Under the people, not the goods, you can push it to whomever you want. The county lord is beautiful and gentle, and he is a century-old couple, and he is not blessed. You can only die lonely in the future. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Kuang turned around and said, "Don't offer moon cakes yet." The servant hurriedly brought the box and served it, and Shen Xiluo took it. Xu Kuangzuo said: "Xiaguan congratulates the county lord on the beautiful and beautiful festival. Leave! He walked a few steps and turned back and said, "I just said from the bottom of my heart." If you want to give up, you will never give up unless the county lord is married to someone else. ”

Lord Huaishu looked at Xu Kuang's departing back, his words were still lingering in his ears, and suddenly she felt that she had a headache, she stroked her forehead lightly, and said, "Zizhu, distribute the moon cakes to everyone and let them disperse." I want to go back to my room and rest. ”

Lord Huaishu held a cigarette veil in his hand, dragged a long skirt, stood by the window, looked up at the bright full moon in the sky, and couldn't help but feel sad. This was originally a reunion festival, and she could enjoy the moon with her father and brothers and sisters, but now she is standing alone and hanging from each other.

Not only that, Princess Tiantai also oppressed and humiliated her repeatedly, making her restless every day. But the nightmare continued, Xu Kuang actually said that she would not marry, wouldn't this be an excuse for Princess Tiantai to humiliate her again? She didn't dare to think about what Princess Tiantai would do to her next time.

She was really, really scared. Lord Huai Shu clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest, praying that the full moon would bring her good luck. I just hope that God will take care of her, and the nightmare will end.

Zizhu said on the side: "Master, it's late at night, it's time to go to bed!" Lord Huaishu stroked his chest with his left hand, shook his head gently, and said, "My heart is so chaotic that I can't sleep!" Zizhu gritted her teeth and said: "It's all because of that Xu Kuang, it's just a beast." Didn't he push his master into the fire pit by doing so? It's infuriating. ”

Lord Huaishu sighed: "I can't blame him, maybe, maybe this is my life!" Zizhu persuaded: "Master, don't say that. Your life is the best. Lord Huaishu sighed. Zizhu said: "Master, why don't we go on an outing tomorrow and stretch?" ”

Lord Huaishu said: "It's okay to scatter your heart, you can arrange it!" Zizhu smiled: "Tomorrow will definitely let the master have fun and forget all his troubles." ”

In the early morning of the next day, Zizhu instructed his subordinates to prepare a carriage, first serve the county lord of Huaishu for breakfast, and then follow the county lord of Huaishu out of the city with Shen Xiluo. Lord Huai Shu sat in the carriage, closed his eyes and pondered, and let the carriage gallop. Zizhu peeled an orange and said, "Master, do you eat oranges?" Lord Huaishu closed his eyes and shook his head, and Zizhu had no choice but to eat oranges by herself.

Before I knew it, it was noon, and Lord Huaishu opened his eyes and said, "Where are we going?" Why hasn't it arrived yet? Zizhu smiled: "Master, it's almost here!" You must be hungry, and the slave has prepared a roll cake, so why don't you try it? ”

Lord Huai Shu only ate a little bit of breakfast, and she was already a little hungry at this time, so she took the roll cake, took a bite, and felt that it was sweet. Zizhu asked, "Master, how is the craftsmanship of the slave?" Is it delicious? Lord Huai Shu said: "You are only the most attentive to food. Zizhu said with a smile: "The slave maid must learn all the cooking skills in the world, so that they can be eaten by the master one by one." ”

Lord Huaishu smiled: "I'm afraid you haven't learned it after I die!" Zizhu saw Lord Huaishu smile happily, and her heart was extremely relieved.

The carriage slowly stopped, and Shen Xiluo, who was riding a horse outside, said, "Master, rest first, and then go up the mountain." When Lord Huaishu lifted the curtain to look, he was greeted by a mountain full of maple leaves as red as flames. She said secretly: It turned out that she came here to see the red leaves of Xiangshan. Shen Xiluo said: "Master, there is Yuhua Villa halfway up the mountain, you can rest and enjoy the red leaves." Lord Huai Shu nodded.

The crowd rested for a while, and the carriage began to slowly ascend the mountain. The mountain is not very steep, and the mountain road is quite wide. Lord Huai Shu sat in the carriage and was not very bumpy. Soon, Shen Xiluo's voice came from outside: "Master, Yuhua Villa has arrived!" ”

The carriage also stopped. Zizhu lifted the curtain and got out of the car first, and then helped the county lord Huaishu to get out of the car. As soon as the lord of Huaishu County landed on the ground, a mansion appeared in front of him. A pair of stone lions stand proudly in front of the door, and the horizontal plaque "Yuhua Villa" on the gate. There are several people lined up outside the door, all wearing six-fold hats and gray straight hats.

Zizhu said: "Master, let's go first to rest, eat and drink enough, and come out at dusk to enjoy the red leaves." I heard that the autumn leaves at sunset are particularly beautiful. Lord Huaishu smiled: "When I get here, everything will obey your orders!" Zizhu hurriedly said: "The slave doesn't dare!" ”

Shen Xiluo wears a black gauze hat, decorated with patterns, the hat is decorated with beads, wears a purple shirt, a red skirt with beads sewn with gold belts, wears bow-like shoes, and pierces a small golden dragon. The purple beads are inserted on the top of the hairpin, and the tail of the hairpin is hung with beaded flowers, wearing an off-white short shirt and a horse-faced skirt.

Huai Shujun master pinched a gold silk handkerchief, wore a gold silk bun, inserted a crested hairpin, obliquely inserted gilt flowers and beads to shake, the whole body wore a big red skirt, the sleeves were embroidered with gold wire, the waist was tied with yellow palace silk, hung with jade pendants, wearing stone blue satin embroidered crested thick-soled women's shoes, the face was decorated with thin makeup, the skin was like condensation, the air was like a quiet orchid, the black beads were looking forward to it, and it was glamorous.

The servants outside the door looked at it and couldn't take their eyes off it, and they seemed to be immortals in the painting. Shen Xiluo coughed lightly and said, "Don't lead the way yet!" It took a long time for the servants to come back to their senses, and when they recognized the clothes of the eunuchs in the palace, they hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, please come in!" ”

Yuhua Villa was built by Zhou Chengwei, a wealthy man in the capital, and this is the place where he made friends with powerful people. Ordinary people don't talk about going in, they will be driven away even if they stand for a while. The servants saw that Shen Xiluo and Zizhu were the people in the palace, although they didn't know who the lord of Huaishu was, but they were all magnificent, and there were people in the palace to serve them, so they must be dignitaries in the palace. They didn't dare to slack off, led the county lord of Huaishu to rest in a luxurious wing, and brought the famous tea and the best pastries for the lord of Huaishu to enjoy.

At dusk, Lord Huaishu and others went out of Yuhua Villa to enjoy the red leaves of Xiangshan. A touch of sunset shining on the autumn leaves is extremely enchanting, which makes people feel unrestrained. Lord Huaishu wore a big red dress, standing among the red leaves, it was impossible to distinguish between people and leaves, as if people and red leaves had become one.

Lord Huaishu smiled: "Dead girl, no wonder I always tell me to wear a red shirt, I see!" Zizhu clapped her hands and smiled: "Master, you are dressed in red and are matching this scene, you are really 'people like red leaves'!" Shen Xiluo also kept nodding on the side.

"Stop and sit in love with the maple forest at night, the frost leaves are red in February" I saw a son dressed as a scholar quietly walking. When Lord Huaishu saw this person, his heart sank. Zizhu crossed his waist and said, "Why are you here!" Disturb our master's Yaxing, don't leave quickly! She didn't say "get out", which was already very polite. It turned out that the son was Xu Kuang.

Xu Kuangzuo said: "Don't misunderstand, I don't have any other intention to appreciate the autumn leaves here. Zizhu chirped: "Still pretentious, shameless!" Lord Huai Shu said: "Zizhu, you are not allowed to be rude to Lord Xu!" Zizhu pouted and stood aside.

Xu Kuang muttered: "Zizhu is right, it is indeed shameless under it." "Lord Huaishu secretly thought: If he is so entangled, the Nine Emperor Gu will definitely not let me go, and my father will not sit idly by. If it causes a dispute between the East Palace and the West Palace, it is not good to endanger his father's status as the crown prince. It's time to be clear. Then he turned his head sideways and said, "Zizhu, Xiluo, you two stand down." I'm going to talk to Master Xu alone. ”
