Chapter 240: Thunder Second Watch
Xu Huaiyi's proposal was not answered, Zhao Sanyou and Wang Qiusheng both said that they didn't want to see it, Meng Ping would ask for leave, but he also wanted to go home and make arrangements.
As for Li Yunting, he doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas at all.
After class in the afternoon, Xu Huaiyi changed out of the academy uniform, carried a bag and left, in addition to him, there were many people in the academy who asked for leave tonight, they did not go out of the city to Baoling Temple, but went to Chunjiang Tower.
Chunjiang Building is very famous in the capital, one-stop service for eating, drinking and playing, and the charge is not very outrageous, ordinary people are ruthless, they can also go in for a night, of course, they can only go around on the first floor, the rich and powerful can climb to the top, stand on the observation deck on the seventh floor, overlook the capital.
Of course, in order to avoid the danger of snooping on the palace, the location of the Chunjiang Building was built far away from the palace, anyway, with the eyes of mortals, it is what you want to see.
As the night darkened, the outside of the city was even more lively than the city, and a large number of victims gathered near the Baoling Temple, waiting for Master Huixin to chant the sutra to relieve them from their suffering.
After Xu Huaiyi left the college, the first RV changed into an inconspicuous short fight, and made a disguise on his face, then he flashed out, found a place at random, drank a bowl of mutton soup, and ate a few white Ji buns.
He lowered his head, inquired where the Changle Marquis Mansion was, and went straight away.
The Marquis of Changle Mansion lives in Dongcheng, the location is noble, but that is the honor of the ancestors, and then it revealed a bit of decadence, until the family of the concubine out of the girl from the side concubine to straighten, the prince from the second only to the Su family of the imperial merchant Zhao's family, after choosing a girl as a concubine, the situation has improved.
With power and no shortage of money, life is naturally better.
Tonight, a family banquet was being held in the Hou Mansion, and the birthday of Mrs. Li, the mother of the house, was just hindered by the current tense situation, afraid that the big deal would hinder the emperor's eyes, and even more afraid of the impeachment of the imperial history of the Inspectorate, so he did not send an invitation, but only gathered his family together for a meal.
is so low-key, and the family banquet is also very lively.
Li Ji, the son of the Marquis of Changle, was very filial, and specially invited a troupe for his mother, singing and playing on stage, babbling, and bursts of laughter and applause came from time to time from the audience.
There are happy events in the house, and the maids and maids are naturally busy, and even the nursing home has relaxed its vigilance, which is convenient for Xu Huaiyi to come and go freely.
He looked for an opportunity, turned over and entered the Hou Mansion, and he was not afraid that he would be caught, anyway, when he met someone, he would get into the RV, wait for the people to leave, and then come out.
With such a cheat, he touched the place where he sang unimpeded, avoided in the corner, and looked at the masters of the Li family in the audience.
He didn't recognize who was who, except for Li Yuan, tonight he was wearing a very gorgeous brocade robe, sitting in a chair arbitrarily, talking and laughing with the people next to him, a pair of peach blossom eyes, and no yin owl.
Xu Huaiyi sneered silently, wait a while to see if you can still laugh.
There were maids passing by nearby, and I vaguely heard them saying, "The eldest princess is also here tonight, she is really filial to her mother, and she brought several boxes of congratulatory gifts, and I heard that there is a red coral, more than half a meter high, which is particularly valuable......"
The other said, "This is nothing, the eldest princess and concubine even brought the little prince and grandson, this is to make a face for our Hou Mansion, but unfortunately, the eldest prince has something to do temporarily, otherwise he can be present together." ”
"Hey, if His Royal Highness the Great Prince can come in person, then it will be decent."
"Who said it wasn't, but it was just such a coincidence, I heard that the second prince invited a few brothers to a banquet in Chunjiang Tower, and the other princes went, and the absence of the eldest prince was not good-looking."
"That's right, His Royal Highness the Second Prince is the son of the queen's mother-in-law, and there are foreign families like the Xinguo Mansion, and the Yue family like Zhou Gelao, who dares not to give face to the second prince? In such a comparison, the difference between His Royal Highness the Great Prince's family and the Yue family is too far away......"
"Our Hou Mansion is not bad, right?"
"Hehe, if you marry the eldest daughter of our Hou Mansion, it is naturally not very bad, but the eldest princess is not from the lady, how much can she really love the girl who came out of the concubine?"
"But the husband of the eldest lady who was born to the eldest lady is far less than the eldest prince, even for the future of the family, the eldest princess should be the first, right? In case the eldest prince ascends to the throne in the future......"
"Not necessarily."
"What do you know the inside story? Say it. ”
"It is said that our eldest lady's sister-in-law is likely to enter the backyard of the second prince, although she is a side concubine, but how noble the second prince is, right now the court is shouting Li Chu, his voice is the highest, the eldest prince can't compare, even the third prince and the fourth prince are more competitive than the eldest prince."
The two maids walked away, Xu Huaiyi sighed twice, it really deserves to be the Hou Mansion, even the subordinates can know so much gossip, and the prince's affairs will come as soon as they open their mouths.
But for him, there are only two useful news, one is that the princes are eating in Chunjiang Tower tonight, that place he has heard, standing on the top floor can overlook most of the capital, if he is doing something in the Changle Marquis Mansion, those people can see it with their own eyes, which is definitely a good thing for him.
Another piece of news is that the Changle Marquis Mansion may not put all the treasures on the eldest prince, after all, the eldest prince's competitive advantage is the smallest among several adult princes, otherwise, he would not have taken a concubine to the eldest prince's mansion to be a side concubine.
He estimated the time, avoided people, and found the tallest plane tree in the house, at this time the leaves were all gone, only the branches, even at night, he couldn't hide anyone.
But he has an RV, so he is not afraid of being discovered, and this place is also very secluded, and the nurses are too lazy to come and walk around.
Xu Huaiyi hid on it, waited patiently, and when the mobile phone in his arms showed eight o'clock, he took out a small stereo from the RV, the stereo was small, but the sound was strong.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a thunderclap exploded in the sky above the Changle Marquis Mansion, and all the masters of the Li family were stunned, and the ladies were even more frightened and screamed.
"What's the thunder? It's a sunny day......"
"Maybe it's changed, right?"
"Impossible! Look in the sky, the stars in the sky, where does the thunder come from? ”
"Did you hear it wrong? It's not thunder, it's blown up somewhere? ”
"Don't go check it out yet!"
Chang Lehou strained his face, scolded coldly, and stabilized the situation, but the people did not move, and then there was a burst of thunder, this time everyone heard it clearly, it was not an explosion, it was indeed thunder.
Chang Lehou strode out of the stands and squinted around.
In addition to his composure, the ladies had already lost their faces, and they stopped on the stage and left in all directions, not even caring about the reward.
"It's raining? No, then this thunder ......."
Someone's face changed suddenly, and the words that followed were swallowed.
Thunder for no reason is definitely not a good sign.
However, this is the beginning, the thunder is louder and louder, and at the same time, there seems to be a lightning strike, the light is bright, most of the people in the capital have heard and seen, and they are bold, and they began to run to the Changle Hou Mansion.
Who called, so weird, thunder, lightning, nowhere else, just rush at the place of Changle Houfu, God is biased towards him? (End of chapter)
