Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 292 Matsutake
Zeng Zhaofu came late. Firstly, Xinwuhou's mansion was far away from Zheng Guogong's mansion, and secondly, something happened on the way.

"Zheng Mingzhu rushed out suddenly. If my coachman hadn't reined in the horse so quickly, an accident would have happened." Zeng Zhaofu was terrified after thinking about it.

If Zheng Mingzhu was killed and injured, the Marquis Xinwu Mansion would be in big trouble.

"It's so cold in winter, why does the Princess House let her run around on the street?" Wen Bingqing frowned.

"She's not a baby. Although she's out of her mind, she's still a big girl. If she makes a fuss, no servant will dare to really stop her." Jiang Changning said.

Princess Changshan waved at the three of them, motioning them to approach, she lowered her voice and said, "I heard that she is not stupid, but has epilepsy."

"Do you have this kind of disease?" Jiang Changning asked with a frown.

"This disease is famous: nympho disease." Zeng Zhaofu curled his lips, "Princess Yi Ya's daughter is smashed."

"It's self-inflicted." Jiang Changning said coldly.

Zheng Mingzhu clings to Zhou Duxin obsessively, forcing Zhou Duxin to disclose and avoid things. The three of them all know some inside information, and they generally agree with what Jiang Changning said.

"Don't talk about this, we should go to greet Mrs. Guogong." Changshan Wang Shizi said with a smile.

Although Jiang Changning is the concubine, she is the prince's concubine, and her rank is higher than Mrs. Zheng Guogong's, but they are younger and come to Zheng Guogong's mansion as guests, so they have to give Mrs. Zheng Guogong a face.

Several people put on their cloaks, and under the guidance of Wen Bingqing, they went to meet Mrs. Zheng Guogong.

It is impossible for Mrs. Zheng Guogong to take Joe in front of Jiang Changning and the others. After chatting politely for a few words, she smiled and said, "You young people, go play, I won't keep you here."

Wen Bingqing sent Mrs. Zheng Guogong out, turned around and came back with a smile: "Let's play cards, it's passed from the south, it's quite interesting."

"Let's play, let's play." Changshan Wang Shizi concubine said in high spirits.

The four sat down at the card table, Wen Bingqing asked the maid to bring the cards, "This card is commonly known as the four-color card, and it is also known as the Gentleman card."

The cards have four colors, yellow, red, white, and green. I think this is the origin of the name four-color cards.

"Each color is divided into: officers and men, chariots, horses, artillery, soldiers, seven groups of cards, each group has four cards, and there are five face cards for Gonghou Bo men." Wen Bingqing said the rules again.

It's just that she is new to it, and the rules are not very clear, and Jiang Changning and the three of them can't understand it too well.

Zeng Zhaofu waved his hand, "Needless to say so much, let's get to know each other as we play, come and come, let's draw the cards."

The four-color cards are like the cards, and they are similar to horse hanging. After a while, Zeng Zhaofu and Changshan Wang Shizi, who love to play cards, understood the rules and counted.

Jiang Changning can count cards, and played a few tricks.

Among the four, Wen Bingqing lost the most, "It's really a disciple of the church, a master who starved to death."

"You didn't teach us, we figured it out on our own." Zeng Zhaofu put down the cards, "I'm fooling around again, come here, give me the silver coin."

Wen Bingqing gave the silver curly, and said: "You are too fast, my cards are still scattered, look, there is a shortage of major generals."

"I am the general who always wins at the poker table." Zeng Zhaofu said proudly.

After playing a few more games, it was noon, and Wen Bingqing had lost all the silver locks in the small box until there were only three left, so she hurriedly said, "Let's continue in the afternoon, let's have dinner first."

"Post a post to invite us to come, but what delicious food is there for us to eat?" Changshan Wang Shizi asked with a smile.

"Do you want to eat matsutake?" Wen Bingqing asked with a smile.

"The king of fungi, who wouldn't want to eat it." Jiang Changning smiled, "Thank you for thinking of us."

Matsutake is born under the pine forest, and its buds are like deer antler, so it is named: Matsutake, which is a nourishing treasure. It takes at least five or six years to grow from spherical spores to Matsutake, so it is extremely precious.

Even in modern times, matsutake cannot be cultivated artificially, only wild ones.

And wild matsutake is very rare, and the quantity is not much, Wen Bingqing can't deliver it to various houses, so if he invites people to have a meal.

The chef of Zheng Guogong's mansion is very good at cooking. A cup of matsutake steamed egg is tender and smooth.

The unique fragrance of matsutake is perfectly locked by the egg custard. Put a spoonful into your mouth. The freshness is an unprecedented taste experience, which makes people addicted to it.

Several people finished eating the matsutake steamed eggs gracefully and quickly, and Princess Changshan said with a smile: "It really is a mountain treasure, and the taste is really excellent."

After eating well and having fun in Zheng Guogong's mansion, it was three quarters before he left.

The next day, Kangren County mainly went to Jiping County Government House as a guest.

Jiang Changning repeatedly urged, "Don't go near the water."

"Don't go to high places."

"Don't go to remote places."

"You must have someone with you, not alone."

"If someone asks a question, don't rush to answer it, think about it before answering."

He also told Xiulan, "Take good care of the princess, don't let anyone bump into her."

After sending Princess Kang Ren away, Jiang Changning went to see Zeng Mi.

"Auntie, Mi'er's illness is cured, can I stop taking the medicine? The medicine is so bitter." Zeng Mi rushed over and hugged her leg, begging on his back.

"It doesn't matter what my aunt says, I have to listen to your mother." Jiang Changning touched her thin face.

"Auntie, the best auntie, please help Mi'er talk to my mother, my mother will listen to you."

"Other things, your mother will listen to your cousin, but your mother will not listen to this matter, good boy, drink the medicine obediently, and I will ask your mother to give you an extra candied fruit." Jiang Changning held her hand road.

"Three." Zeng Mi bargained with her.

"Okay, three." Jiang Changning agreed.

After coaxing Zeng Mi to drink the medicine, and playing with Yan Yinyao for a while, Jiang Changning went back to Rujingyuan to accompany his son.

In the afternoon, at Shen Shizheng, Princess Kangren came back,

Seeing Jiang Changning, without waiting for her to ask, he truthfully told what happened in the Jiping County Mansion, "Miss Lu invited eight people in total, namely"

"They say that male colleges should marry and female colleges should marry, and they don't know what kind of man the family will choose for them to accompany them for a lifetime?"

"I also talked about the most sought-after young masters in the capital today. They asked me, which of these young masters do you think is better?"

There are talented people in the country, and they have been leading the way for hundreds of years.

Older handsome men like King Jin and Qin Zhaoxi who have married wives have withdrawn from the marriage market, and they are replaced by another group of young men of the right age.

Jiang Changning, who had been silent all this time, asked curiously, "How did you answer them?"

"I stayed at home for three years and never went out. I don't know them, so I can't judge whether they are good or bad. I let them say."

Jiang Changning smiled, "Then what do they say?"

"Among these young masters, one is Duke Shao of Jiping County. I heard from the eldest girl of Uncle Baorong's residence that Duke Shao is handsome and talented."

Jiang Changning's eyes flickered slightly, "This Lord Lu Shaojun has such a good reputation, does Kang Ren want to meet him?"

"I've seen him."

Jiang Changning was startled, "Where have you seen him?"
