"Just if you keep calling flowers to get on the table? You're pouring a red ass for me to see? "Zhu Wenyu has always been a mouth-to-mouth fight with Zhou Yuan.

There was another round of laughter in the room.

"How? Eagle, what's the news these days? After laughing for a while, Zhu Wenyu's topic finally turned back.

"Nothing useful." Desert's expression sank, and he shook his head: "We managed to enter the Wei State Mansion, but the people below are busy, and Brother Nangong and I are not ministers of the imperial court, so no one greets us, so we can't inquire." On the street, there are all kinds of things, some say that Xu Da died of illness, some say that the emperor gave him death, even if it is death, some say that it is poisoned wine, some say that it is a steamed goose, some say that he was given a knife, and what is even more bizarre is that Xu Da is angry to death, anyway, there are all kinds of words, I don't know which one is true and which one is false. Saying that, he looked at Nangong Ling, and Nangong Ling also shook his head dejectedly.

"I'll go to the Wei Mansion in a while." Zhu Wenyu shouted steeply: "Little Gaozi! Where did the death go? Prepare a set of clothes for me, and then prepare some gifts, and I'll go to the Wei Mansion to worship the spirit!"

Xiao Gaozi hurriedly ran over and said, "Young master, I have already asked someone to prepare hot water, can I go after bathing?" ”

"Mu your big-headed ghost!" Zhu Wenyu scolded with a smile: "Hurry up and bring your clothes, I'll change them!" Come back and wash again, what do you know, stinky boy? When you're done, maybe the daylily will be cold, and you'll still be big? "In fact, going to the Wei Mansion to worship the spirit is not as good as bathing in this pillar of incense, but Zhu Wenyu is in a hurry. As for Xiao Gaozi's age being a few years older than Zhu Wenyu, it's just that Zhu Wenyu used to call him a "stinky boy" before, who called Zhu Wenyu the master?

"Young Master, are you ...... You're too ...... The taste is too ...... That's it, let's take a shower before we go. Xiao Gaozi said with a smile.

Desert and Nangong Ling also persuaded Zhu Wenyu to wash up and go again, at least he was respectful, and it was more convenient to inquire about the news. "Brother Zhu, you won't run away from others when you wash at least to find out the news, right?" Nangong Ling joked rarely.

"Okay, okay, you are reasonable, you are reasonable, I wash and I wash, can't I wash? Little Gaozi, is the water boiled well? I want two big buckets, and I want Hanako to wash the stinky mud from his body!"

"That's good, that's good." Zhou Yuan's salivating look made both Desert and Nangong Ling laugh out loud.

Hurriedly ending the stop, Zhu Wenyu changed into plain clothes, took the sacrificial list handed by Xiao Gaozi, and said to the desert and Nangong Ling: "I'm going." So he hurriedly went out, and Xiao Gaozi hurriedly ordered the two little servants to follow behind with the sacrifice. As for Zhou Yuan, he couldn't go to the Wei Mansion anyway, and he was still soaking comfortably in a big wooden barrel, and he didn't know which mountain song tune in the barren mountains and mountains in his mouth, looking leisurely and comfortable.

Zhu Wenyu rushed all the way to the Wei State Mansion without stopping, handed over the name sticker, and the porter who was wearing filial piety hurriedly shouted: "The deputy commander of the Jinyi Guard has sent Master Zhu here!"

Xu Da, the Duke of Wei, as a member of the first grade, an important minister of the imperial court, even the current emperor Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the prince to give a sacrifice to the spirit, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty naturally rushed to worship one after another, and in the first few days, the streets in front of the Duke of Wei were all stuffed to all kinds of civil and military officials, and in a few days, almost the entire Ming court was inspected one by one at the door of the Duke of Wei. After the first seven days, almost all the officials in the capital worshipped, and then the local officials in various places, especially the generals in the army, the soldiers who followed Xu Da to fight everywhere, now most of them are the general army level with the troops, follow Xu Da for a long time, read the old feelings, can come to pour a glass of wine in front of the spirit, toast a pillar of incense, the duties are important and can not come to send a deputy to worship on behalf of the people, and toss for a few days, the old lady has severely reprimanded, the Duke of Wei ascended to heaven, and those who came to worship are court officials, Maybe when a first-class member will come, plus now that Wei Guogong is gone, there is no backbone in the family, and the power in the court has collapsed seventy or eighty percent at once, and all those who come to worship must be respectful regardless of the official rank, and there must be no sloppiness, so the family members have been busy up and down for more than ten days.

Now that Sanqi has passed, basically everyone who should come has come, and those who can't come can't come, so the Wei Mansion has been quiet in the past two days, and the family members have time to take a breath and rest for two days. But when Zhu Wenyu came today, the porter shouted, and the subordinates of the Wei Mansion were shocked again. Zhu Wenyu was still the first court official to come to pay tribute today, and the subordinates naturally did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly welcomed Zhu Wenyu in.

The three pillars of incense were lit, Zhu Wenyu stood in front of the spirit and raised his hands above his head, and suddenly recalled that when he was a child, he lived in the Xianlan Courtyard of the Inner Palace, and the bearded Xu Da accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang to walk in the palace, passing by the Xianlan Courtyard, he was often caught by Zhu Wenyu and asked him to tell a story, and he also pulled his thick beard while listening to the story. Unexpectedly, Zhu Wenyu would find some clues indicating that the former bearded man might be involved in the Tianyi League and had always been suspicious of him, and even when he came to his spirit to pay tribute to a pillar of incense, he wanted to find out some news in his heart, and the turnover of his life was really difficult to say. Zhu Wenyu couldn't help but feel a trace of guilt in his heart: "Big beard, I'm sorry, the little monkey has to figure out the cause of your death, I hope you have nothing to do with the Tianyi Alliance." ”

Inserting the incense into the incense burner, Zhu Wenyu looked around, only to see a few people in filial piety kneeling beside the spiritual seat, the two people led by one showed a heroic face, showing that they were born as military generals, and the other person looked much more elegant, naturally Xu Da's two sons Xu Huizu and Xu Zengshou, I heard the desert say that the current saint Zhu Yuanzhang has a will to make Xu Da's eldest son Xu Huizu attack the title of Duke of Xu Da Wei. That Xu Huizu is also a general in the court, a brave man, but his rank is not high, and he is one level lower than Zhu Wenyu, but this time he is a knight, and he is a cut above Zhu Wenyu.

"General Xu, Lord Xu, people can't be resurrected after death, please mourn." Zhu Wenyu intends to have a relationship with the two.

"Thank you, Lord Zhu." Xu Hui Zuxian was tired of crying a few days ago, although he had a calm face at this time, he did not cry, but his hoarse voice still made people feel a deep sadness.

"Zhu used to live in the palace and had a very good relationship with Wei Guogong, I wonder if the two adults have heard of it?" Seeing that Xu Huizu was talking quite coldly, Zhu Wenyu said again.

Xu Huizu actually didn't mean it, first, he led the troops not in the capital all the year round, he didn't know much about the things in the capital, Zhu Wenyu came to worship in front of the spirit, for him it was just the affection of the court officials, he just had to answer the salute according to the rules, and he was born with a soldier, and his temperament was straightforward, and his father died a little strangely this time, although he didn't dare to doubt the emperor as a courtier, but after all, he was a little suspicious in his heart, and he didn't have much to pay attention to Zhu Wenyu, so there was not much look on his face. Xu Zengshou, who knelt a little behind, was different, he was a civil official, he stayed in the capital all the year round, he knew a little about Zhu Wenyu's origins, and he also heard his father talk about it occasionally, so he interjected: "My father has mentioned adults many times with Zengshou. ”

"Oh." Zhu Wenyu was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said, "General Xu, I wonder if I can talk to Lord Xu alone?" ”

"Second brother, you take Master Zhu to Butterfly Valley, I'll guard here." Although Xu Huizu didn't understand what Zhu Wenyu wanted to do, he didn't bother to think about it, and turned back to Xu Zengshou when he heard the words.

"Yes, big brother." Xu Zengshou said, stood up, patted the dust on his knees, and waved his hand: "Lord Zhu, please." After saying that, Zhu Wenyu hurriedly raised his hand with the subordinate next to him: "You go back first, I'll come back by myself when I'm done." After saying that, he walked a few steps quickly and followed Xu Zengshou towards the inside.

Xu Zengshou led the way in front, turned a few corners, and walked to an inconspicuous house, only to see a few golden characters on the plaque on the hall "Butterfly Valley". Zhu Wenyu was inexplicable, and he didn't understand how the name here was very different from what pavilion or hall in the homes of ordinary officials and eunuchs, it was obviously a partial room, so what did it have to be called "Butterfly Valley"?

"Lord Xu, why is this place called Butterfly Valley?"

"Oh, this is the name taken by the father, the house in the family has some strange names, it is said that the place where the father went back then, Butterfly Valley, Hanyangdu and the like, Lord Zhu, please take a seat. Come on, serve tea!"

Wait for the next person to serve the tea, "Lord Zhu, please." "Lord Xu, please." Both of them took a sip, put it down, looked at each other, and for a while neither of them knew what to say, and the room suddenly fell silent.

"Lord Xu." After all, Zhu Wenyu couldn't help but speak first.

"Lord Zhu." Xu Zengshou hurriedly bowed his hand.

"Lord Xu, just now Lord Xu said that he had heard Lord Ling Zun talk about Zhu before, and he must know that he really admires Lord Ling Zun very much, and Lord Ling Zun is also very kind to him." Zhu Wenyu began to talk ramblingly, thinking about where to start asking.

"This ...... Don't hide it from Lord Zhu, when my father returned to the mansion in the old year, he did often mention adults, but at that time, please forgive Xu for taking presumptuousness, at that time, Lord Zhu was still young, but he hadn't heard how his father took care of adults. When Zhu Wenyu heard this, he was deflated, who knew that Xu Zengshou's words turned again: "I just heard my father talk about the tone of adults, but I really like adults very much, but that was a few years ago, in the past few years, my father has been guarding northern Xinjiang for a long time, and rarely returns to Beijing, so I have never heard my father talk about it." But this time, when my father came back, he mentioned that he had met with adults outside Beiping City. ”

"Yes, yes, I have known Lord Lingzun for many years, and that was when I was still in Xia Chongling." Zhu Wenyu is very familiar with these literary crepe in the officialdom, and these are the most annoying things on weekdays, how can he have the heart to grind with Xu Zengshou? It's just that today is a different plan, and I have to barely cope with it. "In short, Lord Ling Zun is a person who is very respectful and admires the demeanor of Wei Guogong very much."
