Autumn twilight, sprinkled with decaying lotus, pearl rain, rain over the moon Watson, cold Mandarin duck Pu, Chishang with sorrow and no couple, Nai this, monohabitat mood, but the golden cage parrot, read Fan Lang words.

Since Zhu Shou left, Hua Yurong has been looking forward to the appearance of that person in front of the hospital every day, but after so many days, that person still hasn't come back, and it seems that he has forgotten here.

The maid followed behind, seeing the appearance of the young lady, she was close to her heart, and she didn't know how to comfort her, that Zhu Shou had not appeared for almost a month, just like a dream, the champion was not even improper, and the world had evaporated, and there was news that the imperial court had deprived Zhu Shou of his status as the first champion, and he was not allowed to take the test again for ten years.

This matter is in a uproar in the capital, everyone knows it, and it is talked about after tea and dinner, and there is everything to say, but there is one thing that everyone agrees on, that is, this young man named Zhu Shou raised his son, maybe just to fight for a name, and he had no intention of entering the official career, otherwise he would not have given up the top spot after high school and disappeared without a trace, just like in the late Song Dynasty, there was such a thing, someone used the imperial examination to advise the imperial court, which caused a sensation, and so far I have not found out who that person is? Storytellers don't always say it.

Since the young lady knew about this, she has become like this, often talking to herself to the cats and dogs or flowers and birds in the yard, saying strange things, sometimes feeling sorry for herself, sometimes smiling, laughing less, and worrying more about her heart.

During this period, the bustard came to comfort her a few times, and she didn't know what to do, she couldn't run to the commander of Jinyiwei to ask the adult, who was Zhu Shou, this question, it would be better to kill her directly, Jinyiwei secretly guarded the secret order, carried out the order, did not ask right or wrong, violated any secret order, and died, but she really had the courage to go, and fortunately Mu Bin did not kill her.

That Zhu Shou must have a great background, either a relative of the emperor and the country, or the king and grandson, when he was in Qionglou, he might have looked at the flower girl and wanted to accept it as a forbidden one, and no one was allowed to touch it, but when he left here, Huahua World, with his identity, naturally would not care about a beautiful girl from a Qinglou, even if it was a famous Qing girl in the capital, the two of them were not from the same world at all.

In the past few days, the sons of those adults often come here to look for flower girls, except for Wang Jinglong, almost all of them came, and some people even shouted for 10,000 taels of silver, combing the flower girl and ransom it as a concubine, 10,000 taels, these ghosts are confused, they really don't know whether to live or die.

The old bustard didn't dare to call the shots without permission, so he went to Jinyiwei Zhenfu Division, asked to see Shangguan, and knocked on the side about Hua Niang, Mu Bin didn't dare to say more, after all, this is His Majesty's private matter, it's better not to interfere, so I didn't care, let her deal with it herself.

It was precisely because of Mu Bin's attitude that the old bustard misunderstood something while not getting the news, but he didn't want to lose so much silver, so he hesitated again and again, and went to Hua Niang's independent courtyard to persuade her many times, and today he came again.

"Daughter, the godmother is here, that Zhu Shou Gongzi is not an ordinary boy at first glance, you, the godmother advises you, let it go, forget him!" The old bustard sighed and said, after so many years, I have some feelings, so I call her a godmother.

When the flower girl heard this, she covered her mouth and chuckled; "Godmother, Zhu Gongzi is not that kind of person, he will definitely appear, I will definitely wait for him." After speaking, his face turned crimson, revealing a shy, endearing and pitiful.

The old bustard said tentatively; "Daughter, Zhu Gongzi's identity is not simple, you are not all the way, the godmother is for your good, let it go, look at you uncomfortable, the godmother is also uncomfortable, thinking, I found a good family for you, someone paid 10,000 taels of silver to buy you into the house as a concubine, and from then on get rid of the shackles and enjoy the happiness, the godmother specially came to ask you what you mean, what do you think."

"Godmother, my daughter already belongs to Zhu Gongzi, and my daughter believes that Zhu Gongzi will definitely come back, definitely." Hua Yurong's last sentence, even she was not sure, and her words were self-pitying.

The old bustard sighed, Zhang Zhong's words of warning her are still in her ears, and it is not easy to persecute too much, but after so many days, Zhu Gongzi still hasn't appeared, will he really come back? Remember the flower girl?

"Lord Zhang sent someone here, who was in the front yard, saying that he would take Hua Niang into the house, and he also brought a lot of silver and his subordinates." A guy ran in excitedly and shouted.

When the old bustard heard this, he frowned, thought about it, and said to Hua Niang: "Daughter, someone from Lord Zhang's mansion has come up, you see..." ”

Hua Yurong's face became ugly, and her face was miserable, could it be that her fate was doomed, that adult Zhang rumored that she was not a woman, but there were a group of wives and concubines in the family, and it was said that there were already four concubines, could she refuse?

In the Ming Dynasty, officials are not allowed to enter the Qinglou prostitutes, offenders are disgraced and imprisoned, and serious ones are exiled, but if the Ming media takes a concubine and marries a Qinglou woman, there is no big problem, and it is not a big deal to be said two sentences at most.

This Lord Zhang is Zhang Cai, the secretary of the department, because he has been mixing badly in the department, he wants to find a way to enter, this time there is a vacancy in the department, he asked himself if there is any hope to make up for the vacancy, and he didn't want to fight, but God gave him a chance.

One day, the son of Wang Shu, the secretary of the ministry, found him and asked him for a small favor.

After a conversation, the two hit it off, each took what they needed, Zhang Cai found the old bustard in Qionglou, willing to bid 10,000 taels to buy the Oiran lady into the house, the old bustard was naturally overjoyed, and he didn't know what he promised, so he sold the flower girl and received a thousand taels of silver.

"Godmother, you really want to see your daughter go into the fire pit, and your daughter doesn't want to, I beg you, don't promise him, otherwise your daughter is willing to die." Hua Yurong refused to obey, and looked at the old bustard sadly and begged her not to agree.

Seeing this, the old bustard also felt deeply concerned in her heart, and she didn't dare to persecute it anymore, after all, Zhang Zhonglai had warned her.

The reason why I agreed the day before yesterday was that I was reluctant to pay 10,000 taels of silver, so I thought, if Hua Niang herself is willing to agree, then it doesn't matter about her, who told Zhu Shou not to appear for so many days, if Hua Niang herself changed her mind, who would complain about her.

Now this situation, she has already thought of it, but she didn't expect the surnamed Zhang to be so anxious, and she didn't have any patience at all, so she came to the door with the silver, and there was no way, she had to send him away first.

"Okay, good, godmother doesn't force you, don't force you, but you have to think about it yourself, if you enter our industry, how can anyone look at us, and it is already a good thing to be a concubine in a big family, you ······ Think about it for yourself, alas... The bustard left with the little servant.

Hua Niang stood in front of the windowsill of the small building, the corners of her eyes were moist, and she said to herself in her heart, Zhu Gongzi, do you still remember Yurong? If you forget, why bother to send your family here, let Yurong worry about it, they all said that you will not come back, let Yurong forget you, but how to forget.

When the housekeeper of Zhang's house came, Zhang Cai instructed that no matter what method was used, he must get people back to his house.

Speaking of which, if he hadn't figured out the identity of Zhu Shou, offended these gentlemen, and made a bet with someone, and then he won the champion, these gentlemen were afraid of offending him and didn't dare to do anything again.

However, who knows that within a few days, this damn Zhu Shou, the identity of the top champion, was deprived by the imperial court, this is really great news, see that you Zhu Shou is still crazy, so someone proposed to find the flower girl, but several times were blocked by the bustard, and they couldn't use the strong, so they had to come up with a bad idea, they just relied on their father of the court to show off his might, so the bustard dared not to sell face, it is also reasonable, if the person who came was an official, I don't believe that you dare not to give face.

The poor do not fight with the rich, and the rich do not fight with the officials, which is especially reasonable in the Ming Dynasty.

So, Zhang Cai was selected by the prince's son, and even the waist was willing to pay for his own pockets, to win a chance, although this opportunity seems small, but it is better than nothing, and Zhang Cai knows that this is the most favored and most famous of the prince's four sons, with this handle in hand, spend some money to buy a concubine, what's wrong, it's a trivial matter.

I'm afraid he would never have thought that sometimes God is so fond of jokes, and the concubine he wants to buy back to the mansion will be the woman who has been selected by the saint today.

Zhu Houzhao took Liu Jin out of the edict, and went straight to Qionglou, I haven't seen you for a month, I don't know what happened to Miss Yurong, it must be strange that I have disappeared for so long.

Liu Jin knew the emperor's thoughts, and finally came out for a trip, and he would definitely go to see Miss Yurong, who was going to see him last time, but he was ruined by those damn black-hearted traffickers, this delay is a month, and Miss Yurong will definitely enter the palace in the future.

Zhu Houzhao swaggered in front, since he made a will to sweep away the evil and evil, the capital is really much better, at least the situation of begging along the street is gone, there are more and more orphans in the almshouse, these children always have to be placed, a pat on the head, there is an idea, how did the Iron Eagle Guard come about, didn't the first emperor collect orphans and find them in the pile of dead people on the battlefield, their loyalty needless to say.

Now that the Iron Eagle Guard has appeared in the sight of the government and the opposition, it is no longer a person who secretly obeys the orders of the Son of Heaven, so it is necessary to cultivate another batch, and the research and development of thermal weapons has also begun to be built in the Royal Manufacturing Bureau, just waiting for people to test the effect, these children are all good seedlings, there is no fixed mode of thinking, the ability to accept new things, but it is much easier to use than the soldiers who have been accustomed to cold weapons, just you.

A mysterious firearms battalion appeared like this, Zhu Houzhao specially formulated a complete training system for them, and simulated training in full accordance with the military knowledge he hobby in his previous life.

Zhu Yuanzhang's welfare to the people is good, the nursing home, is responsible for taking in, the widow and the young children of the government-run welfare home, Leaky Zeyuan, is the Ming Dynasty official office tomb, specializing in dealing with unclaimed bones, the court paid for its burial, Huimin Pharmacy, is the free medical hospital of the Ming Dynasty, you can see and receive medicines for free, the establishment of these institutions has benefited how many people in the Ming Dynasty, who dares to say that Zhu Yuanzhang is a tyrant, the people can be bright in their hearts.

Now, in the hands of Zhu Houzhao, the development is unprecedented, and a modern supervision and control system with strict standards has been issued; if there is laziness, neglect of government, harsh administration, and oppression of the people, once it is discovered, he will be immediately dismissed from his post and investigated.

A series of methods are dazzling, but no minister has stood up against these decrees, because Zhu Houzhao has discussed them with them, and the three cabinet elders first agreed, Your Majesty wants to do things for the great tomorrow, can they not agree? Naturally, they raised their hands in favor, so what the three elders agreed with, should they oppose it? Naturally, I don't object.

Zhu Houzhao in the eyes of the courtiers, is not a mature and stable qualified emperor, maybe very smart, but too reckless, want to be a play, but when it comes to the people, it is different, there are people arranged by Jinyiwei, throughout the Ming Dynasty to spread the emperor's deeds, every time he gives a holy decree, there are Jinyiwei secret guards of the people, spread and promote the decree of the Son of Heaven, what are the benefits to the people of Limin, just like the TV broadcast in the previous life, it is preached everywhere, even the countryside is not let go, it can be imagined in the hearts of the people, What a holy man he is.

But now this saint is going to be Qionglou Lang, if the people below know, I don't know what they will think, maybe they won't care about you, as long as you can eat your stomach, the Son of Heaven likes to do whatever he wants, and it doesn't hinder anyone.

"The day before yesterday, you received the fixed money from the house, and now you dare to regret it, if you don't take out the contract today, let's go to the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion to reason, think about it yourself." The arrogant way of the house steward, followed by seven or eight people in the house, stepped forward and took a fierce step.

The old bustard is not a good man and a woman, when he heard the words, he sneered in his heart and sued me? Do you think Jingzhao Mansion is the thatched house on your house, you can enter if you want, how much more than people, can you have more than 100,000 Ming brocade guards? Hehe·····.

"The housekeeper of Zhangfu has something to say, my mother, I took your fixed silver, but I just promised to help make peace, I didn't say that it was decided today, what's the matter, do you dare to use it in broad daylight, Hua Niang doesn't agree, no one can take her away from Qionglou!" The old bustard also sprinkled, crossed his waist with one hand, pointed to the housekeeper, and did not give an inch.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao shook the folding fan in a remote manner, followed by Liu Jin, stepped into the Qionglou Building, looked at the old bustard with a smile, and then looked at the few people on the other side, and asked casually with a chuckle; "Who is going to rob the flower girl?"

He listened to a rough idea at the door, it was just unbearable and unbearable, even my women, there are people who want to get involved, it is simply bold.

Liu Jin stood in front of Zhu Houzhao with momentum, at this time, it was time for him to behave.

"My son-in-law asked, did you hear it?" He looked at everyone with his eyes, and everyone was frightened by the evil aura on his body, and they all retreated.

Liu Jin's appearance of five big and three thick, coupled with his martial arts, is indeed scary enough, which can be compared to those people in the house.

When the old bustard saw him come in suddenly, he finally came back to his senses and shouted in surprise, "Ouch hey" This is not Zhu Gongzi, you can be regarded as appearing, my daughter she, but you are looking forward to Gongzi day and night, and finally I am looking forward to you, Si'er, why don't you take Zhu Gongzi into the flower hall to wait, go and invite the flower girl, what are you doing in a daze, don't wait quickly.

Taken by Zhu Houzhao suddenly appeared and the momentum of the people around him, the people of Zhang's Mansion suddenly lost all their momentum, and they didn't dare to say a word, watching Zhu Houzhao swagger to the backyard.

When the old bustard saw Zhu Gongzi coming back, he was relieved and happy for Hua Niang, and finally didn't see the wrong person.

"Go back and tell you Lord Zhang, just say that the old lady I can't move the flower girl, if he really has that mind, he will try it himself, however, the old lady kindly reminded that the flower girl is already famous, that is, the son just now, if your family provokes it, just come." The old bustard paused, and with some reluctance in his arms, he took out a silver ticket, a thousand taels of silver.

"Take it back, the old lady can return the silver to your family, please." The old bustard crossed his waist and pointed to the door.

The housekeeper of Zhang's Mansion was furious with the acceptance and silver, but he really didn't dare to be presumptuous, otherwise, he would be causing trouble to the adults, so he hurriedly left Qionglou with the silver, disgraced.

Back in the house, he told Zhang Cai about this, Zhang Cai thought about it, and couldn't figure out what kind of character the young man described by the housekeeper, but after taking the housekeeper to say that the young man's surname was Zhu and called Zhu Shou, he was excited.

When he sent the news to the prince's mansion, the prince's youngest son was overjoyed when he heard it, Zhu Shou, the name he hated when he heard it, finally appeared in Qionglou again, okay, great, he immediately went to find someone else to inform the good news.

If in the past, when Zhu Shou was still at the top of the top list, then they would still be afraid, now, you are white, do you still want to fight with us, and you will not be killed.

After several people discussed, they automatically ignored Wang Jinglong, because that guy is very low-key now, almost like a lady who doesn't go out of the door, he has hardly gone out since he was beaten by the cane, and I don't know if he has changed his temperament.

They first sent someone to inform the Ministry of Rites Langzhong, and then went to Jingzhao Mansion to Qionglou to get people, if they were caught by these two, let alone ten years, the fame was given to you, and the scholars went to the Qinglou, the crime can be big or small, mainly depending on the person who arrested you, mood and motives, just like now, it is obvious that someone is behind the instructions, so I'm sorry, you are unlucky.

"Miss, Miss, who's coming." The maid shouted in front of the window on the second floor, pointing to the courtyard.

Hua Yurong knelt in front of the guqin brought by Zhu Houzhao, and carefully wiped the dust on it with a pair of white jade hands, which was actually clean and spotless, but this was sent by the person he liked.

"Who's coming!" She has a weak way.

She seemed to remember something, and exclaimed, "Ah······ You mean~ You mean, Zhu Gongzi? Oops, give me makeup, I can't see my son like this, I'm ashamed. ”

But the maid laughed evilly; "Miss, it's too late, Zhu Gongzi has already come up."

"Ah~, you go and help me block it for a while, tell Zhu Gongzi, I'll freshen up, and then go to ask for gifts, go quickly."

"Yes, miss."

Downstairs, Zhu Houzhao said with a smile; "Zhu Shou, please see Miss, I wonder if Miss is willing to play the piano for me for a while?"

Upstairs, her eyes were already slightly red with excitement, he came, he really came, did he want to take me away this time?

But when she heard Zhu Shou's words, she suddenly changed back to the beautiful girl who was famous in Beijing, Zhu Shou is still that Zhu Shou, she must like her piano, it is enough to know this, don't hate to travel thousands of miles, where to find music books at the end of the world, shame to see butterflies among the flowers, and look for six or six fish on the water.

The slave family is willing to play the piano for the son alone for the rest of his life.
