Cheng Yuanxiang, the county magistrate of Lantian County, stared at Mu Yirong's thoughts and couldn't help but be in a daze.

The nineteenth prince knocked the fan on the palm of his hand with a smile, and said to Cheng Yuanxiang: "When this king saw Yirong for the first time, he was also stupid to see his face. Therefore, Cheng County Ling can imagine how many ladies in Shangjing City are in love with Lord Shilang. ”

said, he even became a matchmaker, and said that he guaranteed Mu Yirong's character. If Cheng Yuanxiang's family has a daughter to be married, it is better for Mao Sui to recommend himself, Mu Yirong must be the husband who loves his wife the most in the world, and the best candidate for a quick son-in-law who rides the dragon.

Cheng Yuanxiang's eyes suddenly lit up, he does have several daughters at home, it seems that there is a way to do this!

Mu Yirong glared at the nineteenth prince, and asked Cheng Yuanxiang to take them to the county yamen to rest, Cheng Yuanxiang immediately waved his hand nervously, the yamen residence is small, and he has already prepared a guest room for the nineteenth prince and Liu Shangshu and others in the house, please don't dislike the nineteenth prince and others.

Mu Yirong said that there was no need to be so troublesome, Cheng Yuanxiang hurriedly said that it was not troublesome, it was a great honor to be able to welcome the Nineteenth Prince to live in his mansion.

The nineteenth prince was very satisfied with Cheng Yuanxiang's arrangement, Shangshu Liu Shicheng also said that there were only miscellaneous servants in the yamen, if he lived there, it was very inconvenient to eat daily life, and he received Cheng Yuanxiang's kindness.

Cheng Yuanxiang immediately smiled and introduced the Nineteenth Prince and others into the city and went to his mansion.

There is the Ba River outside Lantian County, and the river channel is very wide, like a river.

The ecology around the Bahe River is very good, the fishery is abundant, and the fishery in Lantian County was very prosperous in the past, and the local residents lived a fairly prosperous life.

Later, after the Shen family and the Wei family, two major ice households in Lantian County who paid tribute to the imperial court, they suddenly drove the economy of the entire county and attracted many foreign households. Because of this, the city of Lantian County was expanded a few years ago. Whether it is population, economy, urban defense and construction, it is much better than Lintong County.

Cheng Yuanxiang's mansion is separated from the yamen, and the position in the center of the county is very wide, no worse than the high hall and wide mansion where the court officials live in the capital city. No wonder Cheng Yuanxiang is not worried at all, the Nineteenth Prince and others will not be able to stay.

However, the two brothers Hou Hu and Hou Monkey of Dali Temple, as well as 20 inquirers and servants Lao Li, still lived in the yamen. This is Mu Yirong's order, just in case, there is no reason why all eggs are packed in one basket.

Cheng Yuanxiang was a little embarrassed to explain that the Binghu Shen family in Lantian County was his wife's maiden family. The Wei family is the maiden family of his deceased mother and his uncle's family.

At the beginning, it was he who led the people of the county to develop the economy, and later after the people became rich, they all thanked him for his favor and expanded the mansion where he originally lived.

At that time, he didn't expect that it would become such a scale, but he couldn't help but appreciate the kindness of the people, so he moved in.

It's just that many of the houses are empty, and the mansion only looks gorgeous on the outside, but the furniture inside is pitiful, and most of them are old things from the past, I hope the nineteenth prince doesn't mind. If you feel that something is inconvenient, tell him immediately, and he will add it.

The nineteenth prince sat in the large hall, looked around, and saw that the furniture was indeed very old as Cheng Yuanxiang said, and shook the fan with a smile: "Cheng County Ling is bothered, this king is not that pampered person." Once traveled south, because a man misunderstood me to flatter his wife, I was chased to the pigsty and hid for one night. ”

Cheng Yuanxiang looked at the nineteenth prince who wore gold and silver, and used a marigold glass plate for food, and felt that the story he told was not very convincing.

The county ordered Cheng Yuanxiang to set up a banquet in the house, and invited the nineteenth prince and the criminal department Shangshu Liu Shicheng, as well as Mu Yirong and other officials of Dali Temple.

During the banquet, he invited the head of the Shen family, that is, his brother-in-law Shen Liangliang, and the head of the Wei family, his uncle Wei Ling to come and sit with him, and called his two sons and four daughters to come over to greet him.

Cheng Yuanxiang's appearance is not outstanding, he is the kind of ordinary face that he can't remember when he falls into the crowd, his two sons are like him, his facial features are not prominent, he is not tall, and he is not very knowledgeable, he is an ordinary young man.

Cheng Yuanxiang said that he has no ambitions, he doesn't want his children to gain fame, as long as he is healthy and safe for the rest of his life.

However, his four daughters are all good-looking, probably following their mother, and they are as delicate as the flower bones picked by others.

Cheng Yuanxiang focused on introducing the young and talented Prince Nineteen and Mu Yirong to his four daughters, the intention was very obvious, and the four women also bent down shyly and timidly, and their watery eyes kept drifting to the two.

After Mu Yirong and the four of them finished saluting, they didn't squint, and they were silent like a piece of black graphite, and the nineteenth prince also looked like he was lacking in interest and couldn't lift his spirits.

Cheng Yuanxiang felt that his four daughters were out of play, and the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, so he hurriedly gave his brother-in-law Shen Liangliang a look.

Shen Liangliang waved knowingly, and the subordinate who was waiting behind him immediately stepped forward, Shen Liangliang whispered two words in his ear, and the subordinate turned around and ran out.

After a while, a female Taoist wearing a star official, a mandarin duck jade pendant on her waist, and a feather robe and xia clothes, moved lightly with a lotus step half-covering her face with a pipa, and walked in with a gust of fragrant wind.

Cheng Yuanxiang immediately got up and introduced him to the Nineteenth Prince and the others with a smile: "This Kun Dao Gu is called Yuhua Immortal, and she is the grandson of the former Yu Xuanji Dao Gu, and she is the best at pipa music. I heard that the nineteenth prince and several adults came to the mansion of the humble office, and specially came to present a song to help the fun. ”

"Kun Dao Gu Yu Huaxian greets all the adults. ”

Yu Huaxian's voice was gentle and clear, like the sound of a mountain spring hitting a stone, she was blessed, bowed her head slightly, the light hit her white skin, reflecting the shadow of the thick eyelashes, which looked reverie.

Yuhua Xian's body is light and thin, and she walks like Lingyun resisting the wind, which reminds people of the sentence "Fighting Chanjuan in the frost in the moon".

Yan Zhou culture was influenced by the legacy of the former Tang Dynasty, and female Taoists were still very popular, and some women who were unwilling to accept the orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers all wore yellow crowns and claimed to be monks.

At that time, some powerful families often invited these Kun Daogu to set up altars when they offered incense to the tablets of the gods at home on the first day of the new year.

"Ni Xuan enters the cave in the early moon, and the feather festival ascends to the altar to worship the seven stars", which has become the norm at the beginning of the month of the aristocracy.

However, most of these Kun Daogu are semi-prostitutes and the like, wandering in high-ranking households, because they are very skillful in writing and ink, can interpret words and chapters, talk elegantly, and are familiar with entertainment, and add fragrance to the red sleeves of many official eunuchs and literati and ink writers.

When the nineteenth prince saw Yuhua Xian, he suddenly came to his senses, threw the fan on the table, and ordered someone to give Yuhua Xian a seat with a smile.

Yuhuaxian smiled and thanked him, swung his waist, sat lightly on the stool, half covered his face with a pipa, and his voice was tactful like a lark moaning.

"Yuhua's talent is shallow, and she is ugly. ”

After speaking, the white wrist turned, and the slender jade fingers gently plucked the pipa strings.
