Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 204, drunk

At the next banquet, the crown prince suddenly no longer seemed intimidating. Everyone felt that he was kind and could talk at any time. The noisy toast disappeared, but the bond between the guests and the host increased, as if there was an invisible bond connecting the guests and the host. .

The guests also toasted, but most of them were gentle and respectful. Yun Zhan did not sweep their faces. His high alcohol capacity satisfied everyone, and his high opinion also satisfied everyone.

The topic naturally turned to the official positions of Qi Yue and others. This was a good opportunity for those who were about to get official positions to ask the prince for advice, and they were clever enough not to miss it.

Yun Zhan's eyes were refreshed by Qi Yue's thoughts, and Shi Zi's smile concealed sharp eyes: "Are you going to the northwest?"

Yanyan became nervous. Where is the northwest? She has never heard of it in the famous and prosperous cities across the country: "Where is the northwest?"

"I'm willing to go," Qi Yue said in response to Yun Zhan's words: "Northwest." He thought of a good answer, and blurted out: "It's where Uncle Yuan lives in Sister Xiu's house. I used to stay with Uncle Yuan. Being an official and living a life makes you so envious."

Yanyan was relieved: "Oh, that's not bad."

Qi Yue turned to Yun Zhan, respectfully listening to his advice.

The King of Pingxi came to a few scholars with previous convictions. They didn't count on Chunwei, and they didn't plan to take the palace exam for high school, but they jumped up and down pretending to persuade the scholars to go to the northwest, and staged a drama that the king loved scholars most.

Yun Zhan just didn't bother to care about it. If he wanted to care about it, he would bring two of them to him and ask what happened to the inland civil servant who had just been kicked out.

It's not surprising that Qi Yue said it. Those talented people in the Pingxi County King talked about it when they met, and they talked about it when they saw it. It seemed that the civil servants in the mainland refused to stay in the northwest. Waiting hard for new readers.

They have come into contact with quite a lot of people, they have money in their hands, and they are scattered everywhere. They can be seen in more than a dozen famous family schools in Beijing. The small restaurants and small teahouses near the family school smiled when they saw them. Chun Wei High School is No. 1 in the second class, so it is impossible not to be contacted by them.

Yun Zhan also wanted Qi Yue to go there. He had been dissatisfied with the few celebrities who had been lured away by the Prince of Pingxi. Maybe Qi Yue would be different, and it would make the business relationship between the prince and this generation of Prince of Pingxi smoother.

Holding his wine glass, Xu Sheng reminded: "Northwest is bitter, do you know?"

Yanyan's heart was suddenly raised again. Ever since Qi Yue said that she was going to the northwest, she had been worried. She was married in Beijing and planned to live elsewhere. Shouldn't her brother stay in Beijing to take care of her? Even though sister Xiu and Lvzhu were there, It is also the elder brother's responsibility to stay with his sister, because he can do it.

Yanyan asked Qi Yue again: "Well, why do you want to go to the northwest?"

Qi Yue couldn't explain clearly, so he showed an impatient expression: "What does it mean to go to the northwest properly? Isn't the northwest the place where the imperial court officials should go? That's the only one, that relative Qi Tang is also in the northwest, isn't he staying well? , I just told you that Uncle Yuan is also in the northwest, and I will have a companion when I go, so why don’t you just stay in the capital and let you do what you want, and look at your face seventeen or eight times a day to applaud? Woman! I have no experience!"

Yuan Xiu and Lu Zhu became angry together: "Who are you talking about!"

Qi Yue immediately persuaded: "I," tongue tied: "I said I'm not good enough? I just don't know much."

Yun Zhan couldn't help laughing, the old man Yuan laughed loudly, and swept He Ning and Song Han in with his eyes: "You guys, you can't talk about the three of them since you were young, the more you can't talk about it, the more you want to talk about it, you can't talk about it when you grow up so old Grow."

He Ning found out that the main reason for his failure today was that he was too proud. He drank a few more glasses for a while, his face was bright and his mood was bright, and he answered: "I changed it. Grandfather only said more Brother."

Qi Yue only loves the sisters, looking at Brother Ning, he is still displeased: "Shut up if you snatch a marriage in the middle of the night." He Ning rubbed his nose and shut up with some lust. If you don't get an official position, marrying a green bamboo is one hundred and eight thousand miles better than Brother Yue.

Song Han also sneered: "You didn't win, why are you still trying to get married in the middle of the night?"

He Ning smiled with white teeth on his face, and became more and more happy. At this time, the woman named Qingping should have disappeared in his mind.

Song Han's official position was decided by Yun Zhan, and Brother Han patted his chest: "I will go wherever I am asked, and if I am also allowed to go to the northwest, then I will go on the road with Brother Yue."

The rest of Qi Bo, Qi Tao, and the other two nephews of the Song family also said the same thing. Yun Zhan said that he understood, and he was not in a hurry to choose official positions for them here. What he wanted to focus on was the following sentence.

After the last one who got the official position finished speaking, Yun Zhan looked around the audience: "I'll give you a topic to do first, maybe you will meet immediately after you take office." Looking at Yanyan lightly, the prince said casually: "Just talk about Qi This matter, if you encounter it, how will you deal with it?"

Everyone present, including Yuan Xiu, was stunned. If they were magistrates and encountered such a thing, how should they deal with it?

First of all, Luan Jing molested people in public. There is a saying that "defending the mouth of the people is better than Fangchuan", and Luan Jing should be taken down first.

Then, Luan Jing is the young master, he didn't really violate Yuanxiu or Yanyan, he just uttered a few teasing words, it's hard to do anything with him when the final case is finalized, because the parties didn't suffer any substantial harm, and There were no results of substantial harm.

Either lose money, or get married, and it must be established under the condition that the local officials are willing to uphold justice.

The man is fine when he goes home and continues to wander, while the woman may bear lifelong accusations.

Good things don’t go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and there are some gossips that are just boring. Maybe the girl gave birth to a grandson, and the neighbors lost their teeth. They will speak out when encountering conflicts. You were molested in the past, so don’t speak loudly to us. say.

This is not speculation, but a fact that will happen in reality.

Qi Yue was the first to get up, and bowed deeply to Yun Zhan and Yuan Xiu: "Thank you Shizi and sister Xiu for taking care of me, I won't stay in Beijing, I need to trouble my son and sister Xiu to take care of me."

The brothers of the Qi family were reminded, and they also got up and bowed deeply to the ground.

Yun Zhan didn't just reverse the case, flaunting the justice of his own handling, he sat down the Qi family brothers and talked eloquently: "You should all remember that there was a case of molesting a civilian girl in the new episode before, and Lu Juanniang was in the embrace Scratching Ma Dechang's face, under the eyes of everyone in broad daylight, Lu Juanniang felt that her reputation was damaged and insisted on suing, Ma Dechang felt that she was offended so much that her identity must not be respected, from Xinji to Sanbao County, then to your province, and finally to the Ministry of Criminal Justice in Beijing. Two years later, Ma Dechang's father was dismissed from his position as the chief envoy in Yunnan. This was something he should bear because he had no way to teach his son. As for Lu Juanniang, a family of three moved to Beijing, and her own marriage was gone. The Lu family hasn't farmed the land for more than a year and hasn't earned any money, and their savings are gone, and his brother's marriage is gone."

He stretched out his hand to pat Yuanxiu's hand, and then gave her a gentle smile: "There are many yamen involved in this matter, and the time span is long, and there is also a chief envoy. I specially went to your province and Sanbao County I have read the case file, and I finally understand the reason for this in the new episode."

That's how he met Won Soo, proposed marriage to her, and completed his son's lifelong event.

Yun Zhan did not forget You Zhen, and Yuan Xiuben also wanted to invite You to attend, but Matchmaker You was not in Beijing.

Hearing this, Qi Yue's face was gloomy, and he only said that the son forced Luan Jing to settle the marriage. Even if the son had done his best in Yanyan's matter, Lu Juanniang told the Ma family before and after, and there were rumors all over the country that she and Yanyan met. The reason is exactly the same, Brother Yue now also knows the relationship between Ma Dechang and Luan Jing, aunt and cousin, but the ending is quite different.

Lu Juanniang and her whole family were forced to leave their hometown.

Some people may say that there is nothing difficult, and there are thousands of people who leave their homeland and show their talents.

Leaving aside the ancient saying that "the homeland is hard to leave", let's just say another saying "leaves fall and return to their roots". What is a root?The place where the ancestors lived, generations have taken root in that piece of heaven and earth.

It's not difficult for Lu Juanniang's family to leave. After all, Yun Zhan is in charge and gives her enough expenses, and she has a husband who is in the official career, but what about the ancestral grave?The Lu family's ancestral grave is in a village under the jurisdiction of Sanbao County, and they can only worship at a distance every year since then, and those who are sad will inevitably add sadness.

People in this dynasty attached great importance to visiting graves to worship in person, which was a major event during the Chinese New Year.

Qi Yue stood up again sadly, and bowed deeply towards Yun Zhan. He forgot to leave the table, and with this bow, he knocked the wine glasses and chopsticks, but no one laughed, even the careless green bamboo frowned, obviously because of what happened to Lu Juanniang Very sad.

"Sit down," Yun Zhan said, but continued to look at his wife tenderly: "Thank you, when Xie Xiu, sister Xie wrote a letter asking me to intervene, I asked the Ma family to take out a sum of money, and helped Lu Juanniang with land. Change the land, change Xinji's land to the place where she lives now, and find her a ninth-rank petty official as her husband."

Yun Shizi never forgot about the wedding holiday, and seized the opportunity to get intimate with Yuanxiu. These few words made the meeting lively again. Everyone was happy for Lu Juanniang, and they were also tender for Shizi's tenderness.

Once again, Qi Yue was convinced that Shizi Yun was qualified to go to Xinji to snatch a marriage, and the past years that haunted his mind were over.

He raised his wine glass and respected Yun Zhan. The old master Yuan also said that the matter was well done, and he also toasted among the young people. Yuan Hui and Zheng Liugen came to Yanyan: "Sister Yanyan, don't worry, sister Youhui One day in Beijing, one day to vent your anger on you."

Yanyan blinked her eyes: "Really?"

"Exactly. I want to teach the servants of the Nanyang Marquis Mansion a lesson. This matter is on my shoulders. If I don't have an idea, I'll ask Zheng Harmony to help me." Yuan Hui pointed to Zheng Liugen.

Yanyan suppressed a smile: "If you don't have any ideas about staying rooted?"

Yuan Hui's little face was quite vivid with contempt: "Then it's no wonder he didn't win. Let's laugh at him together. We can't read 36 tricks. Waiting for Sister Hui, I will eat, drink, sleep well, and feel good. I will read by myself." Find an idea, don’t worry, sister, I’m sister Hui, I’m sure I can do it.”

In Yanyan's silver bell-like laughter, He Ning, who just came back with a wine glass, grinned, "It's unreasonable, brother, I recruited you or provoked you, can you not say that you won't win.

By this time, in the sudden incident tonight, Yun Zhan had finished speaking what he wanted to warn, and the guests had no more sudden words. At the second watch, no one paid any attention to it. The host had fake guests, so everyone enjoyed themselves drinking and having fun.

The leisurely atmosphere passes through the forest and crosses the bridge, and stops at the door of a room outside the second door. The embroidered waves of spring water under the candlelight are bitter on the face, looking around from time to time under anxiety, and listening with ears, the door is still quiet only the wind As they walked, Chunshui and Xiubo called out to Zaohua: "The second quarter will pass, so don't you really need to urge Second Grandma?"

Sure enough, Zaohua didn't reply as she had urged them in the afternoon and evening, and the mother who accompanied them smiled and said, "Seeing that these two girls are rushing up again, how do you manage the master's affairs?"

Chunshui and Xiubo were also prominent figures in the Nanyang Marquis' Mansion, but in the Duke's Mansion they could only act on the face of others. Before being urged, they couldn't hold back, but after being urged, they felt that something was wrong, each with a smiling face, and honestly continued to wait.

I just feel that the years are endlessly long, as if another four seasons have passed, someone came and said: "Is the person from the Nanyang Marquis Mansion here? Go to the second gate to pick them up."

Chunshui Xiubo called Chayu and Zaohua, and rushed to the second gate with the two little girls. They were at a loss after taking a look at it. The three young women stood on the second gate holding hands, and Yanyan was in the middle with fascinated eyes. The face is pink, this one looks drunk.

Yuan Xiu held Yanyan's left hand, kept fanning the fan in the other hand, and asked repeatedly: "Has the hangover soup arrived yet?"

Luzhu held Yanyan's right hand, and there was a fan shaking in the other hand, and said repeatedly: "Are you better, are you better?"

Chunshui Xiubo gave Zaohua a hard look, the two maids complained secretly, the person who got drunk and lost his second grandmother, and the person who lost Nanyang Hou's mansion, how can they explain to their family when they go back?
Then I saw another person coming out of the second door. He was not tall, and he was not as handsome as a surprise at first glance, but when he walked up to the steps and under the moonlight, the stars and the moon rushed towards him like a galloping force.

Chun Shui and Xiu Bo grew up in Nanyang Marquis Mansion, and they have somewhat good eyesight. Although they don't know that this is Prince Yun, they instinctively know that this is not an ordinary person.

I heard this man say: "Don't panic, take the sober stones and give her a mouthful to go home, and tell her to eat a few more glasses with me."

This tone made Chunshui and Xiubo's bodies tremble, and their posture and expression became more respectful. The person standing on this door and talking in a big way, this is Shizi Yun, this is Shizi Yun.

It is more effective than an old plaster. The anxiety of Chunshui and Xiubo disappeared immediately. Mrs. Nanyang Hou taught her in the past. They kept their bodies low and smiled. Yan received it.

Some people might say, what's the matter with holding back buttocks at this time, the girls obviously can't hold their heads high and show their spirits, they can only show their spirits with their stomachs and buttocks raised, trying to look good when they walk, isn't it?

It would be an exaggeration to say that he has other ideas, Yun Shizi is far away from the girl in the fallen Marquis's mansion, Chunshui Xiubo is trying to save some face for the Nanyang Marquis's mansion.

Listening to the two little women talking non-stop, the crowded moonlight was dim, and the jewelry was shining brightly. For a while, it was impossible to tell who was Mrs. Yun Shizi. Mother Luo came with a food box: "Take Zaohua!" Go home, put it in the well water until tomorrow it won’t spoil, it’s all your favorite food, eat slowly at home tomorrow.”

"Mom," Yanyan said in a daze, "Yesterday I said to eat glutinous rice chicken, and I asked you to cook red bean soup. Have you ever soaked glutinous rice and red beans?"

Luo's mother was shocked: "What happened three years ago, can you tell me today?"

Yanyan struggled to think: "Three years ago," she turned to find Yuanxiu: "Sister Xiu, you ate my glutinous rice chicken three years ago, so I can only drink red bean soup, do you still remember?"

Yuan Xiu's eyes rounded: "I ate the glutinous rice chicken you asked for, because you ate the boiled chicken I asked for, and you also drank my red bean soup, so I can only drink mung bean soup."

"It's the green bamboo's fault, she must have eaten up all my glutinous rice chicken." Yanyan looked for the green bamboo again.

Lv Zhupi smiled but didn't laugh: "That day, what I wanted was fried chicken, don't talk about me when you're drunk."

"That's even." Yanyan muttered, swallowing the sober stone brought by Frostgrass, it was inconvenient to talk, her eyes looked down, and she started looking for a way, fortunately there was a girl to support her so she wouldn't fall.

Chunshui and Xiubo already knew who was the wife of Shizi, and when they heard Zaohua say to Shuangcao inadvertently, "Sister Xiu's marriage is full of excitement in Beijing", they secretly took a look at Yuanxiu, recognizing this Mrs. Wei Yuan Shizi.

Qi Yue looked worried, and said, "I'll send it back."

Yun Zhan said: "It's useless for you to send her away, whoever picks her up will return her." Liu Shun and Ba Fa were already waiting here, and upon hearing this, they stepped forward, "Yes."

"It's going to be a good day, so don't disturb Nanyanghou when he sleeps, just talk to the housekeeper last night, and it's enough to tell him tomorrow, just say that the moon is good and the lotus is good today, so we can't blame us for drinking too much."

The green bamboo also ate a lot. After hearing the sound of ha, he laughed and began to parrot: "You can't really blame us, but the lotus is so good today. Hey, Yanyan, you didn't eat too much, did you hear me?"

Yanyan couldn't answer, so she turned to look at her.

He Ning was giggling, and suddenly he got excited and pulled the green bamboo: "Is this the place where you yell? You eat too much, come back to the room with me."

"No!" Green Bamboo pushed him violently, looking around: "Caigu? I heard a lot of good things from the prince today, I have to teach Caigu well, Caigu?" Luzhu let go of her voice again.

He Ning covered his ears, and Song Han laughed at him: "Isn't this just covering your ears and stealing the bell, why don't you send Luzhu back to your room quickly."

Aunt Yuancai came out: "I'm here." She also drank too much wine, but she didn't talk much and didn't take the opportunity to cry.

He Ning was talking: "Aunt Cai also heard what the son said, and Aunt Cai was also present."

Luzhu has already started talking enthusiastically: "Caigu, you have to be a good person, let Shu Ze be a good person, the prodigal son will not be exchanged for money when he turns around, if he wants to be gold, he will not be exchanged, don't be an old grassroots, be a good person, do good things and be an official, it doesn't matter if you fail, Just put your mind at ease"

Yun Zhan laughed, He Ning covered his ears and went back to the room first.

Aunt Yuancai took a step and nodded her head, followed Luzhu back to the room, Song Han and the others also dispersed and went back to their rooms, Qi Yue felt disappointed under the moon, and was stimulated by Yun Zhan's words just now.
