Chapter 38: The New Year's Day (3)

On the fifteenth night of the first lunar month, on the royal street, the lights are on, bustling, and the flow of people is like weaving.

The lights are brilliant, the excitement is abnormal, Zhao Hong is in front, Li Tang and Xu Sheng are on the side, the officials of Lin'an Mansion with red cloth bags are following, and the public officials of Lin'an Mansion are on guard around them.

Li Tang kept taking the meeting from the red cloth pocket and handed it over to Zhao Hong. Zhao Hong was full of smiles and distributed "profit money" to the stall vendors on the royal street, and the cheers and cheers of the stall vendors continued.

This year is a good sign. The yamen of Lin'an Mansion posted a notice that the fifteenth day of the first month was the prince's "Li Shi", and the last day of the eighteenth was Yin Fa of Lin'an Mansion.

Counting up, small merchants and hawkers, there have been two "laisee" red envelopes this year.

"Your Highness, this is a show of face!"

The master had a familiar face, and Li Tang was also smiling.

"Your Highness, we are also following your majesty!"

Xu Sheng was also smiling.

"The long march is just a small step."

Zhao Hong is sober-minded and very self-aware.

All this may be related to his own words and songs, and the most important thing is to teach the so-called "Taoist" Taijiquan to Zhao Kuo.

It's a pity that the front seat is empty in the middle of the night, and he doesn't ask the people to ask the ghosts and gods.

This may be an unexpected gain, which gives me a little sense of existence in Zhao Kuo's eyes.

"Do you think there are more refugees this year?"

In the crowd, those with yellow faces and thin muscles and shabby clothes, Zhao Hong did not hesitate to give rewards, and everyone had a "red envelope".

"Every year at this time, there is an influx of refugees in Lin'an City. In recent years, the weather has not been good, and there are often heavy floods, so the imperial court has to send millions of yuan every year during the New Year to provide disaster relief. ”

Xu Sheng said loudly on the side.

Zhao Hong nodded, his eyes swept to both sides of the royal street, under the fragrant clothes and sideburns, and the lights were bright and green, there were still people hungry and cold, struggling.

These things should be solved when you have the ability to solve them.

"Your Highness, you have to come often!"

On the side of the royal street, Chen Qi, the owner of the largest bookstore in Lin'an City, was smiling, and with a group of booksellers, he bowed to Zhao Hong.

Zhao Hong was slightly stunned, and his heart suddenly brightened. If he publishes some anthologies of poetry and the like, he will not only make a lot of money, but also become famous.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, where the literary style is strong, this is indeed a way.

"Your Highness, I have time to go to Taixue to learn poetry!"

After passing through Taixue and Yue Fei's mansion, a group of Tai students led by Jiang Wanli were also enthusiastic and waved to Zhao Hong.

Too many students, enthusiastic worship, scholarly spirit, scolding Fang Xuan, coercing public opinion, and fueling the flames, the energy of these people should not be underestimated.

Seeing those poor men in thin clothes, Zhao Hong also smiled kindly, and stuffed the "red envelopes" one by one.

These sentient beings live a hard life, and I hope they can have good luck.

"Your Highness, congratulations!"

A hawker took the "red envelope", stuffed Zhao Hong with a tabloid, smiled with a smile on his face, bowed his head and left.

In the cheers, after a circle, Zhao Hong was also sweating on his forehead.

Unexpectedly, giving out red envelopes is also a personal effort.

"Li Tang, Xu Sheng, there are a few red envelopes left, the two of you are two each, please be lucky!"

Zhao Hong laughed, took out the remaining red envelopes, and gave them to the two.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Tang and Xu Sheng were both smiling.

"Your Highness, this is the tabloid you want!"

Xu Sheng took out a few tabloids and handed them to Zhao Hong.

Zhao Hong took the tabloid, and together with the vendor stuffed it to him, and looked through it.

He just wanted to see what kind of existence these vendors poured dirty water on him?

In the tabloids, there are all kinds of political, economic, military, anecdotes, and anecdotes, and the content is extensive, which is no different from the newspapers of later generations.

Inadvertently browsed an article, Zhao Hong was slightly stunned and read it carefully.

"It is rumored that the night before the birth of Zhao Guicheng, the heir of King Yi, his father dreamed that a man wearing a purple coat and a golden hat came to visit. When I woke up, the night leak had not arrived for ten minutes, and the room was colorful and brilliant, and the red light was shining on the sky, like the middle of the sun. Three days after Zhao Guicheng was born, his family heard the rumbling sound of cars and horses outside the house, and went out to check, but there was no vision. Zhao Guicheng used to sleep during the day when he was a child, and when others saw him, there were faint dragon scales on him......"

Looking at it, it was a cold day, and Zhao Hong's forehead was covered with fine sweat.

The opponent has already been laying out, step by step, and the original owner is still at a loss, happy and happy, no wonder Yan Chun ridiculed him for being "stupid and not stunned".

It's not just "stupid", it's simply stupid and hopeless!

"Your Highness, the official family asked you to make a "profit see", you have to strike while the iron is hot and do more! ”

"Your Highness, this opportunity is rare, you have to seize it!"

Li Tang and Xu Sheng said one after another on the side.

"What opportunity?"

Zhao Hong looked at Li Tang and Xu Sheng in surprise.

"Your Highness, seize the opportunity to wash all the dirty water splashed on the tabloids, and let the officials look at you with admiration."

Li Tang said softly.

Zhao Hong nodded, secretly frightened.

A family member and a subordinate can see it more thoroughly than him. I don't know if the original owner is so lucky?

"Your Highness, the Wu Mansion is in front, take advantage of the New Year's Day, go over and pay a visit......"

Li Tang said cautiously, he was afraid that Zhao Hong's donkey would lose his temper and get angry.

"Li Tang, you are so thoughtful, I almost forgot!"

Zhao Hong nodded appreciatively.

Now he can be sure that this Li Tang is by no means the eyeliner that Shi Miyuan planted in the house.

However, when I go to Wu Mansion, it can only be early tomorrow morning.

"Li Tang, you tell you the truth, what kind of person is Madame?"

After buying something and coming out, looking around, Zhao Hong asked in a low voice.

I heard that Zhao Hong doesn't like this Wu family very much, she is delicate and willful, and she is especially jealous. He just didn't know what kind of person Wu was.

He wouldn't mind starting all over again if he could. Anyway, he is not the original owner, and he will not offend the Wu family for the sake of a Xu Ji.

With the return of the Wu family, his united front is much stronger.

"Madame......"

Li Tang's eyes flickered, and he was hesitant.

"Li Tang, you tell the truth, I don't want to listen to lies. In this world, there are a few people who can speak the truth. It's just talking about people when you see people, talking nonsense when you see ghosts, and it's just perfunctory flattery. ”

Zhao Hong was very emotional.

"Your Highness, Madame grew up beside the Empress and was spoiled by the Wu Mansion and the Empress. But no matter how bad she is, the queen chose it for you. Bear with it if you can. ”

Li Tang's words made Zhao Hong's sense of guilt in his heart a lot less all of a sudden, and he was also relaxed.

If you can endure it, you really think you're a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle?

"Where did Madame go, and if she was in the Wu Mansion, do you know?"

Zhao Hong looked into the distance and suddenly stopped.

When his wife Wu came back, the most likely return was her in-law's house.

"Your Highness, as far as the villain knows, Madame went to Jinling after falling out with you last year. Until now, she has not returned. ”

Li Tang didn't dare to hide it, and told it.

"Is the Wu family for Xu Ji, or for the Zhou family?"

Xu Ji is a beauty sent by Shi Miyuan, and Zhou is his other concubine. Xu Ji and Zhou can both play the piano, and they both have a bit of a posture.

This made him a little confused for a while, is Xu Ji undercover, or are both Zhou and Xu Ji undercover?

The point is that Zhou is already pregnant and is now recuperating at her in-law's house. And her father is a well-known wealthy businessman in Lin'an City.

If what he expected was right, the child Zhou gave birth to was a boy, and he was still the emperor's grandson who died in two months.

These things cannot happen in his hands.

"Zhou is gentle and courteous, she has followed His Royal Highness for four years, earlier than Madame. Madame must be because of Xu Ji. And after Xu Ji came, Mrs. left first, and later His Royal Highness drove the Zhou family away! ”

After Li Tang said something, Zhao Hong muttered and scolded.

"Scumbag!"

"What?"

Li Tang and Xu Sheng looked at Zhao Hong in surprise.

"Nothing. By the way, how long have Madame and Zhou been gone? ”

Zhao Hong scolded the shamelessness of the original owner in his heart and continued to ask.

For the sake of a beautiful prostitute, run away from his wife and drive away his concubine, is this what people do?

No wonder Queen Yang is angry with Zhao Hong, she deserves it!

"Your Royal Highness, counting it up, Madame has been gone for about half a year, and Zhou has been gone for three months."

Xu Sheng replied after a while.

Zhao Hong nodded. Needless to say, Zhou is three or four months pregnant, and she is by no means an undercover agent.

He wanted to see Zhou urgently to verify his guess. However, it was not so easy for him to drive the Zhou family away and go to the Zhou family again.

It's the same with going to Wu's house, I'm afraid it's not popular.

"After the Zhou family went back, did the Zhou family make trouble?"

Zhao Hong asked humbly.

"I didn't make a big fuss, I guess Zhou hid it. The eldest man of the Zhou family came once, quarreled with His Royal Highness, and broke up unhappily, and the Zhou family never came again. ”

Li Tang Menqing said it in one go.

"The Wu family has also made trouble! Wu Feng, the eldest brother of the Wu family, is a famous gentleman in Lin'an City, and he also beat His Royal Highness. However, after the lady left the house, the Wu family rarely came. ”

Xu Sheng followed and said.

"So, Zhao ...... For the sake of Xu Ji, I offended the Wu family and the Zhou family at the same time, one ran away from home, and the other was driven away by me, wasn't it? ”

Zhao Hong was shocked and asked sharply.

"Yes!"

Li Tang and Xu Sheng replied in unison.

"How many sins this damn bastard has done!"

Zhao Hong stomped his feet again and again and scolded angrily.

Li Tang and Xu Sheng looked at each other and were silent.

This attitude of admitting mistakes is too serious, and the reflection is too profound, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is self-abuse.

"Tell me, is there a remedy?"

Zhao Hong was angry and asked about the two guards.

These two have been following him for so long, they must be able to come up with a good way.

Zhao Hong, a bastard, poked him in such a big basket that he let him wipe his ass alone!

"Your Royal Highness, Zhou is so good, she has been with you for four years, and her heart is soft, you go over to coax her and say a few sweet words, nine times out of ten you won't blame you!"

Li Tang did an analysis and cared about Zhao Hong.

"Madame ran away from home and hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid the Wu Mansion is not easy to deal with. However, it is best for Your Highness to go to Wu Mansion, after all, His Royal Highness's Taishan Taishui is alive, and you are still the son-in-law of Wu Mansion. If you don't go for the New Year, I'm afraid it's not good. The queen will not be happy either. ”

Xu Sheng's other incisive analysis followed.

"So, Wu Mansion, do I have to go?"

Zhao Hong asked stubbornly. If you don't go to your mother-in-law's house during the Chinese New Year, you can't say where you put it.

"I have to go!"

Li Tang and Xu Sheng said in unison.

"Zhao Hong, you bastard! How many iniquities have you had! ”

Zhao Hong covered his head in pain and cried out.

This pig teammate, didn't leave a good one?

Li Tang looked at Zhao Hong in surprise and said with a smile:

"Your Highness, you won't dare to go to the Wu Mansion, right? It's just a face, bear with it! ”

Isn't it that after repentance, the donkey's temper came up again? Don't look at what time it is?

"Okay, just your IQ, what kind of agitation method are you playing, it's too clumsy!"

Zhao Hong thought for three or five seconds and waved his hand.

"Go back first! Prepare some gifts! ”

Li Tang and Xu Sheng glanced at each other, smiled proudly, and hurriedly followed.

It's a lot of work to get this bastard owner back to normal.
