The group followed Lord Yang to the backyard of the Luodu Mansion, which was the former Zhao Mansion.

On the way, Shen Mingjiao saw Yun Shu staring at the back of Lord Yang outside the sedan chair from time to time, and finally when she looked out for the fifth time. Shen Mingjiao couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Do you know?" ”

Yun Shu nodded and shook her head, her purple eyes revealing a little admiration: "Princess, you must know him, his name is Yang Chengru." ”

Shen Mingjiao felt that this name was a little familiar, she lowered her eyes and thought about it, then slapped her forehead, and asked a little incredulously: "Could it be that Yang Chengru who wrote (Que Dengzhi) you are talking about!" ”

Yun Shu nodded: "That's him." ”

What is this Lord Yang famous for? It's not how big he is official, nor is it the inspirational story of him being promoted step by step from a humble family to nearly 20 years.

It is said that Lord Yang has been poor since childhood, and his widowed mother was seriously ill when he was ten years old and was about to die, in order to have someone to take care of his son after death, she gritted her teeth and bought a child daughter-in-law for Lord Yang.

The child's adopted daughter-in-law was three years older than Lord Yang, her hands and feet were diligent, and she did a good job of embroidery, and the two grew up stumbling. Later, Lord Yang was admitted to the Jinshi.

A child bride is not a wife in the strict sense, and the two did not go to the government to register their marriage because of their young age. In this case, if Lord Yang doesn't admit this family business, no one will say anything.

But he didn't, he only married the child daughter-in-law very low-key, and for more than 20 years, he never got lustful.

And the reason why his infatuation is known to everyone is because of the many poems he wrote about love. Strange to say, his writing is not outstanding, but the few love poems he wrote are so gripping that they are recited one after another. It has provided a lot of confession material for many unmarried men and women.

Many people spontaneously attributed the reason to his deep affection for his wife.

Even Shen Mingjiao, who is not very good at poetry, can read a few lines of his poems casually.

In Shen Mingjiao's imagination, a person who can write such a poem full of mood and artistic conception should be a merry man in white clothes fluttering and holding a folding fan, but looking out of the car window. A middle-aged uncle with a beard and a fat figure. She felt a sense of disillusionment for a moment.

Not much. The carriage stopped at the familiar gate of the house. Lord Yang commanded the guards to remove the threshold.

Mrs. Yang, who got the news, waited at the door early to greet her.

Shen Mingjiao couldn't help but be a little surprised. It stands to reason that this Mrs. Yang should be about four years old, but the woman in front of her looks like she is in her fifties and sixties, with obvious wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and a few gray hairs faintly visible on her sideburns. However, judging from the facial features, she should also be a beauty when she is young.

Mrs. Yang stepped forward to salute respectfully with some restraint, and Shen Mingjiao exchanged a few words of greeting with the other party.

Seeing that she was tired, Mrs. Yang cautiously proposed: "The princess is tired all the way, the concubine has already let people clean the yard, if the princess doesn't dislike it, the concubine will take you over,"

Shen Mingjiao was also not polite, and nodded calmly: "There is Mrs. Lao Yang." ”

When she arrived at the residence arranged by Mrs. Yang, Shen Mingjiao took a hot bath comfortably, most of the fatigue of a few days of rushing faded, and she felt alive in an instant, she leaned lazily on the beauty couch, and was helped by the maid to dry her hair.

I haven't slept well for a few days, and I yawned and fell asleep after a while.

She slept very comfortably this night, and in a daze, someone pushed her, and Yun Shu's deliberately light voice came from her ears: "Princess." ”

Shen Mingjiao opened her eyes, stretched comfortably and sat up, looking at the sky outside, it was almost dusk.

Yun Shu handed her the prepared clothes and said, "Just now Mrs. Yang sent someone over to say that Lord Yang has set up a banquet in the mansion at night to catch the wind and wash the dust for you and His Highness,"

Shen Mingjiao hummed, got dressed a few times, and was cleaned by the maid in front of the dressing mirror. Since he decided to live in Yang's Mansion, Lord Yang has to set up a banquet on behalf of the process.

……

The banquet was set up in the flower hall in the front yard of Yang Mansion, and the arrival of Feng Lisheng and others was not a secret.

In addition to Lord Yang's family, several officials with relatively high grades in Luodu City were also invited. And because of the silver mine corruption case a few months ago, there was a big change in the officialdom of Luodu, and in the past few months, a group of officials in Luodu have been in the limelight. Now that His Royal Highness King Su has come to Luodu quietly, they are even more trembling.

Yes. At present, for this prince who is in power, let alone stepping forward to curry favor, he is sitting honestly, and he doesn't even dare to raise his head.

This is even more true on the female side, and Shen Mingjiao is still notorious, so no one dares to step forward.

Shen Mingjiao said about this, look, this is the benefit of notoriety!

You don't have to hold the demeanor of a princess, greet a group of women you don't know, eat when you want, leave when you want, feel more comfortable!

At this time, Lord Yang helped Mrs. Yang over, the two were about the same age, but compared to Mrs. Yang's old age, Lord Yang was well-maintained, and he had been an official for so many years, the two stood together, and they were not right in appearance.

However, Lord Yang's eyes looking at Mrs. Yang were full of tenderness, obviously both of them were middle-aged, but their eyes were opposite, indescribably sweet and harmonious.

Everyone present was not surprised, they all knew that Lord Yang and his wife were notoriously affectionate.

Shen Mingjiao looked at the two of them curiously, and saw Master Yang skillfully helping Mrs. Yang to sit down, whispering softly from time to time.

She sighed to herself, is this what a loving couple should look like!

It's no wonder that she has such an idea, nowadays marriage pays attention to the life of her parents and the words of the matchmaker. There are very few couples around her who come together because of their love, and most of them are family or political marriages.

So in her inherent concept, husband and wife don't necessarily need to have love between them.

Occasionally, however, she wonders what a couple who love each other looks like.

Seeing Mrs. Yang sitting down, Lord Yang planned to turn around and go to the men's guest area on the side of the screen.

At this time, the corner of his robe was accidentally scraped by a chair on the side, and Mrs. Yang hurriedly stood up when she saw it, half-squatted down and raised her hand to help him gently smooth it. Because she squatted too quickly, her body stumbled obviously.

But Lord Yang stood motionless, as if he was accustomed to her movements.

Shen Mingjiao frowned, although it was common for a wife to take care of her husband, she always felt a little disobedient in her heart, but seeing that everyone around her didn't feel anything, she didn't bother anymore. It's just that she is too demanding of the two.

Lord Yang bypassed the screen and sat down at the bottom of Feng Lisheng. Seeing that the atmosphere in the venue was really silent, he smiled and said a few words, which showed that he was very good at communicating with people, and in a few words, the atmosphere became lively.

The meals were served one after another, and Lord Yang introduced a few Luodu specialties to Feng Lisheng.

Feng Lisheng nodded, "Lord Yang bothered." With that, he took the lead in raising his chopsticks.

The female dependents, hearing this movement, also began to eat.

This Mrs. Yang did not seem to be in good health, and she coughed from time to time.

Lord Yang, who was on the other side of the screen, heard his wife's cough, hurriedly stood up, and smiled apologetically at Feng Lisheng.

"Uchiko is not in good health, Xiaguan will go over and take a look."

The officials in the hall were not surprised to see this, and they casually joked a few words about the good relationship on weekdays.

Feng Lisheng naturally didn't say anything, originally thought that in addition to his good reputation, this Lord Yang was really mediocre. Now that he loves his wife so much, he thinks a little more highly of him.

Lord Yang walked around the screen, walked to Mrs. Yang's side, and gently patted her on the back. Leaned into her ear and whispered, "Why don't you call someone to ask the doctor to come and have a look?" ”

Mrs. Yang waved her hand: "Husband, don't be nervous, it's an old problem, just take a while." ”
