Chapter 34: Princess Changle

"I didn't expect that Zheng Lao would approve of Jian Gongzi joining the bird trapping room. Gao Fengxiang stroked the big frost knife that had been with him, and said to the frost knife with a playful face: "Old friend, I haven't seen blood for a long time, it's time to get it unsheathed." ”

Zheng Xipo picked up the tea cup that still had residual warmth, and sniffed the fragrance of tea, "The big frost knife is out of the sheath, aren't you afraid that Qiu Mingshan will come to the door when you smell it?"

Gao Fengxiang put the big frost knife into the sheath, "If he dares to come, I just want to try the knife." "A few days ago, Gao Fengxiang felt that the martial arts realm pass was faintly loose, and there were signs of returning to the peak before the fall realm. This has also become Gao Fengxiang's confidence.

He was chased by Qiu Ming Mountain before and had nowhere to go, which caused his mood to be damaged. Thanks to Wu Xuansheng's appreciation and entrustment, it helped him regain his confidence.

Zheng Xipo was very relieved to see that he could regain his confidence, so he put down the tea cup in his hand and replied, "The reason why I don't oppose it is because I am afraid of leaking the news. Since these two little ghosts broke through the secret, it is better to simply fulfill it and absorb both of them. Besides, that girl's swordsmanship is not weak, and it will be a good help. ”

"I just don't know this girl's background, lest there be extraneous branches?" Gao Fengxiang weighed the weight over there.

Zheng Xipo smiled dumbly and said, "If there is a problem, how can Lord Wu take the initiative to invite her to live in the house? ”

"How do you say this?" Gao Fengxiang was very puzzled and looked dazed.

"When I mentioned the bird trap, I paid attention to this girl's movements. She did not show the strangeness or curiosity of the name of the bird trap, nor did she see the nervousness and fear on her face. It can be seen that this girl must be familiar with the name of the bird trap. ”

Gao Fengxiang suddenly realized, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Just our wishful thinking, then we will fall into the inferior, what if that girl does not agree?"

"When I sent the two of them back, I quietly pulled Brother Jian to the side and asked him to help send an invitation to the girl. Not surprisingly, the odds of success are high. ”

Gao Fengxiang was convinced by this and admired it incomparably. "This is not only playing the emotional card, but also making a beautiful man!"

Zheng Xipo laughed when he heard this, "I was also forced to go to Liangshan, and I had no choice." ”

Gao Fengxiang changed his words and said hesitantly: "I just don't know if Lord Wu will agree." If he doesn't agree, it's all for nothing. ”

......

In the Shangshu Mansion on Changping Street, the drunkard old man was chatting with the steward. It's idle at this time, and it's rare for the steward to be lazy, talking with the drunkard and the old man.

The old steward was a little older than the drunkard old man, but he had no children under his knees, and most of his life was dedicated to the Wu family.

The old steward had been staying in Yuzhou to serve Mr. Wu, and later, Wu Xuansheng went to Beijing to take up his post. The old man cherished and cared about his young son, so he sent the old steward to Beijing with him. This time is like a white horse passing by, and several years have passed in the blink of an eye. The old steward said with a smile that he didn't know how many years he would live, and the thing he hoped for most in his life was to be able to return to his roots.

"Brother, do you want to be in Yuzhou? . The drunkard old man took a sip of wine and asked with a smile.

"Not really. Although Jingshi is good at everything, it is still not as good as Qingyang Alley in Yuzhou. The old steward dusted off the dust on his body, with a slight smile on his face, and his mind had already flown back to the white walls and green tiles in Qingyang Lane.

The old drunkard looked at the old steward's intoxicated expression, and his mind drifted with it......

There was a sudden crackling sound in the small courtyard, which disturbed the memories of the two.

The two of them took a look and found that this not small movement came from Wen Wan. At this moment, the girl was holding a bright sword in her hand, standing in the courtyard and cutting a plum tree that somehow provoked her.

"Brother, homesickness can be understood. Find a time to take a leave of absence with Wu Sangongzi and go back to Yuzhou, I think he will agree. The drunkard old man helped the old butler with ideas, "I can't talk to you now, I have to go and see who provoked my aunt and grandmother." She lost her temper indiscriminately, not to mention these flowers and trees, even the yard can be pulled out for you. ”

The old steward smiled, gave him away, and signaled to go first.

"Wen girl, who made you unhappy. Tell Grandpa about it, and I'll find you a place. ”

"I'm your grandfather!" Wen Wan glared at the drunkard old man, and said angrily: "Take advantage of me, don't you?"

The drunkard old man Song Qixian smiled awkwardly, "Then the old man, the old man is good." It should be okay now, right?"

Wen Wan shook the green edge in her hand and said, "It's pretty much the same." Next time you say something wrong, be careful that I cut you. With that, he handed the sword forward, signaling that I would really cut people.

The drunkard old man was happy and said, "I don't support the wall, I only serve you." You've got to tell me which bastard annoyed you, and I'll fix him for you!"

"Just you?" Wen Wan's face showed disdain, "Even I can't beat it!"

The drunkard old man Song Qixian was embarrassed again, this aunt only hit her face, not only her face hurt, but also her heart hurt. The old drunkard didn't feel embarrassed, and said shamelessly: "I can't beat you, that's normal." I guess no one in the world can beat you. After a pause, he said, "But that doesn't mean I can't beat others!"

Wen Wan withdrew the long sword in her hand and asked, "Are you sure you want to hear it?"

The drunkard old man nodded firmly.

"It's all Jian Shuzhi's wooden man who is in trouble, he actually dares to say that I am not ladylike enough!" Wen Wan became angry as soon as she said it, regarded Mei Zhi as Jian Shuzhi, and kept swinging her sword and chopping.

The drunkard old man hurriedly spoke: "Tell me where that muddy boy is, and see that I don't smoke him." "But in my heart, there is a secret joy, hey! This kid is really telling the truth.

Wen Wan stretched out her hand and pointed, "In Mr. Wu's study." ”

Wu Xuansheng's study is in this small courtyard, and the study sits north and faces south. There are a few plum trees scattered in the front yard, every severe winter season, Ling Han flowers bloom, dark fragrance.

"Let's go, I'll find you a place. It took a lot of effort for the drunkard old man to coax Wen Wan away and take her to the study.

The door of the study was opened with a creak, and Wu Xuansheng walked out with a smile on his face, followed closely by Jian Shuzhi.

After Jian Shuzhi went out to see the drunkard old man and Wen Wan, he winked happily at Wen Wan.

Wen Wan saw Jian Shuzhi winking at herself, and immediately cheered, jumping in front of Wu Xuansheng, "Thank you, Lord Shangshu!" She couldn't see the sullen look just now. The drunkard old man was stunned for a moment, which play is this, and he can't understand it.

Wu Xuansheng saw the drunkard old man standing in front of the door, and said happily: "I was about to go to find Song Lao, but I never thought that Song Lao would be able to predict the prophet and just appear in front of me." Come in. ”

The drunkard old man Song Qixian looked puzzled, and when he saw the two little ghosts getting together and giggling, and whispering happily, he shook his head, and sighed softly in his heart: The world of young people really doesn't understand!

Jian Shuzhi and Wen Wan sat down on the stone bench under the plum tree in the courtyard. Wen Wan happily asked curiously, "How did you convince Mr. Wu?"

Jian Shuzhi saw Wen Wan's curious face, so he said, "Then I'll tell you about it from beginning to end." ”

Wu Xuansheng's original intention was to use this inspection to recommend Jian Shuzhi to enter the court, so he entrusted Ge Fuzi to bring him to Beijing from the Spring and Autumn Academy thousands of miles away, which can be described as well-intentioned.

Jian Shuzhi was not interested in the affairs of the court, but he longed for the rivers and lakes. In his opinion, the intrigues in the court are far less than the swords and swords in the rivers and lakes.

Wu Xuansheng had hinted and tried several times before this, and he had received an answer. Therefore, he was not surprised by Jian Shuzhi's final choice. After careful consideration, he finally agreed to Jian Shuzhi's request and allowed him and Wen Wan to join the Trick Organization.

......

In the imperial city, it was known that in the palace, the emperor of Dayan locked himself in the study and did not go out for a few days.

The little eunuch shrugged his shoulders and led Princess Changle to the audience.

Princess Changle walked into the palace and saw a mess on the ground, the books were thrown on the ground, and the emperor was sleeping soundly on the case.

"Your Majesty hasn't been out of the house for a few days?" Princess Changle asked the accompanying eunuch.

"It's been two days since I returned to the princess. The little eunuch bent down and replied.

Princess Changle let out a long sigh, stopped and said, "You guys avoid it, and I'll talk to Your Majesty alone." ”

The little eunuch promised to close the door to the study.

Princess Changle bent down to pick up the paperwork on the ground, put them together, and opened the window sash to breathe.

The light in the room brightened, Zhou Shengxian felt unwell, and slowly woke up.

"When will you go back to the Imperial City?" Zhou Shengxian asked aloud as he rubbed his sleepy eyes.

Dayan Tianzi Zhou Shengxian and Princess Changle were born to the same mother, and their father only had these two brothers and sisters under his knees, and there were no other heirs, and the two were close since childhood.

Princess Changle is the youngest and has been favored since childhood. Although he was born noble but not arrogant, he has been knowledgeable since he was a child, and he worshiped under the famous Confucian sect before Dayan. This time I went out of the imperial city to worship the ancestors.

"The Imperial City that I just returned to today. It was too stuffy in the imperial city, so I stayed at Xin'er's house for a few more days. Princess Changle said.

Zhou Shengxian snorted.

Princess Changle sat next to Zhou Shengxian, "As soon as I returned to the imperial city, I heard that you were in a bad mood and had been staying in the study for the past few days, so I came to visit." Could it be that Brother Fei has encountered something troubled?" Princess Changle asked with concern.

A woman's lack of talent is virtue. However, Princess Changle is both a talented woman and virtuous, and quite assertive.

Of course, Zhou Shengxian would not tell his sister everything in his heart, so as not to increase his troubles.

Seeing that Zhou Shengxian was silent, Princess Changle asked, "Is it because of the affairs of the court?...... Could it be that someone is impeaching the prime minister?"

The last time the prime minister was impeached, Princess Changle vaguely remembers. After the next dynasty, Zhou Shengxian also locked himself in the study like this, and he didn't see anyone, and he stayed for a few days. In the end, the prime minister entered the palace to meet him, and after a long conversation with the monarch and ministers all night, he was able to get out of the room.

Zhou Shengxian sighed and said, "Ruoxi, don't ask, let me be quiet." ”

Princess Zhou Ruoxi did not speak, and stayed quietly in the study with Zhou Shengxian.

She was actually still a little puzzled in her heart, this time she went out of the city to worship the ancestors, and after returning to the imperial city, she found that there were many unfamiliar faces in the imperial city, and she didn't know what the reason was.

I never had a chance to ask this sentence.
