Chapter 205
Unexpectedly, there were actually two people hiding from the rain in this narrow doorway, one of them was wearing a navy blue robe, and said pleasantly: "So it's you!"

Lin Bofu saw that this person turned out to be Xiao Yu, Xiao Jing Wang whom he had seen in Jiaguo Duke's mansion that day, he was startled, and hurriedly turned sideways to salute, Xiao Jing Wang returned the half-way salute, "You..." But I don't know how to call it.

Lin Bofu had nowhere to hide, his ears were red with embarrassment, Qiu Ye hurriedly said: "The prince also came to the temple to offer incense?"

King Xiao Jing smiled and said, "Come to do meritorious deeds for my mother." After finishing speaking, he added, "I see you look familiar."

Qiu Ye said: "My lord remembers that the maidservant originally belonged to the Duke of Jia's mansion, and I met the lord in the mansion."

King Xiao Jing then asked, "Why are you two here, master and servant?"

Just as Qiu Ye was about to speak, he saw that the rain was getting lighter, and a servant from the Xu family came to pick it up with an umbrella, so he said, "My lord, we are taking our leave."

Lin Bofu hurriedly saluted again, without saying a word, and followed the servants of the Xu family into the rain.

King Xiaojing looked at Lin Bofu's back, and Bandang called him twice, but he didn't respond.The companion asked: "What is the prince looking at?"

King Xiao Jing came back to his senses, "The rain has subsided, let's go too."

"We didn't bring umbrellas..."

Little King Jing went up to the mountain gate without looking back.

King Xiao Jing offered incense at Biyun Temple, and went to Yining Palace the next day to greet the noble concubine.Because Siqing has gone to live in Qingxiyuan, the Eldest Princess lives here with the Concubine Gui, and Lingzhen is also there.

Concubine Ding'an mentioned about marrying him, "Princess Changqing's cousin is gentle and good-looking, tell me, do you like it? I'm worried that you won't treat her girl badly."

King Xiao Jing then said: "Young lady is worried, so don't say kiss to me."

"This is nonsense," said Concubine Ding'an, "How old are you? Eleventh is about to kiss me. Then who do you think is better? Let me say that the girl from Mrs. Chengping's family is very good, but she is a little old." small."

King Xiao Jing shook his head, "None of them are good, I'm looking for a good one."

Concubine Ding'an asked: "Who are you looking for? Don't be a fan of some kind of flower from some building, swallow it as soon as possible and don't say it out to make me mad."

"How could it be?" Wang Xiaojing said, "I see... Sister Lingzhen is good! She has the ability to manage things properly, my little lady, is she okay?"

Ling Zhen listened at the side and said, "Will the lord find me happy? What can I do? It's not as good as the sister Ban Xia who is beside the lord. She is beautiful and gentle. Isn't she the one who manages the whole of King Jing's mansion properly?" ?”

Xiao Jing Wang just smiled and was out of shape, the imperial concubine pushed him and said: "Look at you, it's a headache. No one will marry you later, so you can cry."

---

Xie Yan went back to Beijing to work in Zuo Chunfang, he spoke very little on weekdays, and most of the people he came and went with were old friends from the Gushan Club.

Xu Wenchang robbed Xie Yan's wife, but he didn't feel guilty at all, he seemed to be fine when he saw Xie Yan.Fortunately, Xie Yan didn't care too much. Once Gu Heng and his wife left, he was not familiar with the place in the capital, so he would often come to Lin's house for a walk.

On the contrary, Xu Wenchang took the lead, and he was so focused on getting Lin Zhizhong to come out as an official, he also pretended to be good for the Lin family, and advised Lin Zhizhong not to be too lofty.

Lin Zhizhong was so disturbed that he even suspected that Xu Wenchang wanted to disturb him by using such a method, so he told him to go south quickly.After making trouble twice, Lin Zhizhong was too perfunctory with Xu Wenchang, so Xu Wenchang didn't mention it.

Not long after, Xu Wenchang completed his garden on the outskirts of the city, and invited Lin Zhizhong and his wife to visit him.Because the garden was said to be built for the bride, Lin Zhizhong and his wife thought that their in-laws had completed the new garden, so they had to send some congratulatory gifts, so they went.When we got to the garden, it was very clean, and the second housekeeper came to laugh with me and said that Xu Wenchang was busy today, and asked Lin Zhizhong and his wife to sit down first.

That day, Xiao Yi went to sit in Xu Wenchang's home in trance, and brought a few close officials, and Shen Jiangdong, who had just recovered from a long illness, also accompanied him.

Shen Jiangdong returned to Beijing to recuperate but did not receive a real job. Xiao Yi saw that he was too low-key, so he deliberately led him out to dangle in front of the courtiers.

Before setting off from Nannei, Siqing secretly said to Xiao Yi: "You don't want to scare the snakes, so you should praise Xu Wenchang like this."

Having said that, it wasn't the first time Xiao Yi went to Jinchen's house in a subdued manner, so it wasn't too eye-catching.Shen Jiangdong didn't like this kind of occasion, so he talked with Xiao Yi on the way to Xujiayuanzi, but stopped talking when he arrived at Xujiayuan.

Xu Wenchang sold 120 points of strength to Zhang Luo. During the meal, Shen Jiangdong quietly looked at Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi knew that he wanted to escape from the table, so he pointed his hand behind him. I just want to find a secluded place to blow my hair.

Shen Jiangdong picked up a secluded place for a walk, and suddenly heard someone like himself fleeing from the table and hiding under the rocks talking, as if Yue Wenkang was in the criminal department and said: "He thought he was from the Ministry of Engineering, and he came to build thatched cottage."

Another person said: "Who are you tossing around for?"

Shen Jiangdong walked along the corridor to the rockery, and saw two people sitting in a secluded place in the back garden.Shen Jiangdong looked at it carefully, and couldn't help being angry, he walked down the mountain like a gust of wind, looking around for no one, so he said: "Brother Lin, Mrs. Lin, Miss Lin is not here again, why are you here today?"

At this time, Lin and his wife were very surprised to see that Shen Jiangdong was also at Xu's house.

Mrs. Lin replied: "The Xu family asked us to come here today."

"Miss Lin didn't come, Xu Wenchang asked you to come here..." Shen Jiangdong was angry, "Did you see many people outside when you came in?"

Lin Zhizhong said: "No?"

Shen Jiangdong was so angry that his cheeks were flushed, and he walked back like a gust of wind, and suddenly thought of something, he turned around and said: "Brother Lin, don't walk around, just wait here, and go back soon. Miss Lin is not here at all today .” After speaking, he hurried back to the table.

Shen Jiangdong's return banquet dishes have been withdrawn, and the people below are talking, Xiao Yi asked in a low voice: "Your face is so ugly? What's wrong?"

Shen Jiangdong whispered something.

Xiao Yi leaned back slightly after hearing this, Shen Jiangdong shook his head, Xiao Yi then gave some instructions to He Shun beside him.

Most of the people Xu Wenchang invited here today were scholars from Jiangzuo, and there were even a few old friends of the Gushan Club.Although Xie Yanguan is small, he is among them.He had just arrived and hid far away.After he came out to relieve himself, when he looked up, he saw a young man wearing a servant's clothes nodding to him. Xie Yan pretended not to see it and walked back. Go to the pavilion behind the rockery in the secluded garden at the back, there is something urgent, don't delay."

Xie Yan was taken aback. At this time, someone was looking for the servant, and the servant turned around and left.Xie Yan thought about it, and followed what the servant told him to look for, and sure enough, he saw Lin Zhizhong and his wife walking back and forth in the pavilion.

Xie Yan jogged all the way: "Brother Lin, sister-in-law, why are you here?!"

Lin Zhizhong and his wife were puzzled, "You are here too? What is Xu Zhihe planning? What about others?"

Before Xie Yan could distinguish the process of the matter, he heard someone calling him again, "But Xie Yude?" Xie Yan raised his head and saw this man with a long body and a sword, and he was very heroic, but he spoke very politely.Lin Zhizhong recognized at a glance that this was the person who came to see Siqing and greeted Fu Linchuan that day in Zhujinling, Xishan, so he nodded indiscriminately.

Xie Yan didn't know him, so he had to return the gift, Cheng Yingzhou said: "This is Mr. Lin? Mr. Lin, this way please." He kept leading Lin Zhizhong and his wife and Xie Yan around, and there was no attendant beside him.Walking about two doors away, Cheng Yingzhou said: "I can't leave here, please send it out, Mr. Xie."

Xie Yan thanked him repeatedly, and Cheng Yingzhou walked away.

Xie Yan sent Lin Zhizhong out. As soon as he left the gate, there were many plainclothes servants guarding him with swords, but they turned a blind eye to the three of them.Mrs. Lin asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

Xie Yan said: "Let's go first, talk later." Xie Yan heaved a sigh of relief after seeing off Lin Zhizhong and his wife, and went back the same way. The attendants at the door still turned a blind eye to him, as if he was a female ghost who knew invisibility in ghost talks at night.

After a while, Xu Wenchang really led the crowd to the back garden, passing by the empty pavilion where Lin Zhizhong and his wife stayed just now, Xu Wenchang's complexion changed slightly, looking left and right as if he did not give up.Xiao Yi deliberately asked: "What is Xu Qing looking for?"

Xu Wenchang quickly denied it, Shen Jiangdong wanted to laugh but held back, turned his head to one side and pretended to cough.Shen Jiangdong's actions were too deliberate, Xiao Yi wanted to tug on Shen Jiangdong's sleeve, but in front of outsiders, he had no choice but to shrink back.At this time, Shen Jiangdong coughed twice, Xiao Yi said: "It's cold here, let's go back and sit down."

Xu Wenchang felt strange and couldn't say anything.The mighty team returned to the seats just now.Xu Wenchang took advantage of the emptiness to see Xie Yan sneaking in through the corner door, stepped forward and asked, "Where did Brother Xie go?"

Xie Yan said: "When I ate the plate, I got diarrhea. Brother Xu, do you have purslane? I just asked your boy, and he said he didn't know." Xu Wenchang was speechless, so he had to find someone to order.When Xie Yan walked away, the young man came up and said to Xu Wenchang: "Mr. Xie has diarrhea, just now I asked the younger one to find..."

Xu Wenchang said impatiently: "I see."

When the driver got up today and everyone saluted, Xie Yan took advantage of the chaos and slipped away.

After leaving Xu's house and returning to the city, Shen Jiangdong said: "Xu Si Nong is a wonderful person."

Xiao Yi said, "How can you see that?"

Shen Jiangdong said: "There is a wink."

Xiao Yi said: "You exposed him, he is only puzzled, how can there be winks?"

Xiao Yi went back to Qingxi Garden and talked about today's events. Siqing was holding Cheng Yingzhou's daughter Cheng Ruixian and the eldest princess to write in the Liuyun Palace, and said, "How did you clear the place? There are no more than two living people in the garden." See. Xu Wenchang is also quite capable, and he is planning to clear the Jingwei, and he is not afraid that there are two assassins in his family."

Shen Jiangdong couldn't help laughing, and Xiao Yi also laughed.Siqing said, "Why, is it funny to play Xu Wenchang?"

Shen Jiangdong said: "Look at the people who came to his house today, I'm afraid everyone doesn't know that there are three knives stuck in the head of the black letter."

Xiao Yi said, "I didn't see his new wife today."

Siqing said: "What's more, the Lin family insists on marrying Miss Lin to him, and I don't know what they think." After she finished speaking, she hugged Cheng Yingzhou's daughter in one hand, and the eldest princess in the other, turned around and was about to leave.

Xiao Yi asked, "Where are you going?"

Siqing saw that Xiao Yi still had something to say to Shen Jiangdong, so she said: "You guys talk, I'll go see the little lady." After speaking, she coughed twice.

Siqing was injured last fall, the weather turned cold and she felt unwell, Xiao Yi asked, "Why is it coughing again?"

Seeing that he was so sticky in front of Shen Jiangdong, Siqing didn't answer, just walked away with a smile.

The three of Siqing left, and Xiao Yi said to Shen Jiangdong: "Come on, let's go to read and sit upstairs."

Today I visited the Xu family's new garden in person, and I forgot Xu Wenchang's happiness. After sending him back to the palace, he took his colleagues to a banquet until late at night, as if he had forgotten about Lin Zhizhong.

Xie Yan went to Lin's house the next morning, but was in vain.He was just about to leave when he saw Lin Zhizhong and his wife came back. Lin Zhizhong thanked Xie Yan. Mrs. Lin said: "Xu's family asked us to go to his home. We didn't know that our girl was not there, so we went. Go today The Xu family looked at the girl, the girl was ill, she did not go to the new garden, and she told us that the sage was lucky yesterday, what the hell is going on?"

Xie Yan hesitated and said, "I'm afraid..."

"Afraid of what?"

"Brother Lin, if he is recommended to serve as an official, in the eyes of others, brother Xu will not be..." He didn't finish what he said, and Lin Zhizhong and his wife naturally understood.Xie Yan was in a hurry to go to duty, so he left and went out.

Two days later, Xu Wenchang came to ask Lin Zhizhong and his wife where they went that day. Mrs. Lin said with a livid face, "Xu Shangshu, Mr. Xu, Xu's family, you told us to go, and we went happily with gifts. What kind of tricks are you doing when people are blasted out with knives?"

Xu Wenchang heard that he mistakenly thought that Lin Zhizhong and his wife were invited out when they were deployed by the imperial army, and quickly apologized.He was complacent, and he didn't care about Lin Zhizhong and his wife's lack of etiquette.

Probably because Lin Bofu was unhappy, after Jiang Feng left Beijing, Qiuye didn't come to Lin's house much.If Mrs. Lin went to Xu's house frequently, Lin Bofu would feel a little uncomfortable, and Mrs. Lin had no choice but to reduce her walking.Later, when he went to Xu's house again, Lin Bofu recovered from his illness, his complexion recovered, and he seemed not to be frowning as usual.Mrs. Lin felt relieved, thanked Qiuye, and asked Qiuye to go to Lin's house more often.

After Limbo Fu recovered from his illness, his complexion became even worse.She tried her best to stay, and Lin Zhizhong and his wife felt that this was the end of Lin Bofu's marriage.That day, Lin Zhizhong's father wrote to ask, and the couple decided to pack up and go back to Yuhang.This house was originally a dowry given to Lin Bofu by the Lin family, and the deed was in Lin Bofu's hands.Lin and his wife wanted to vacate and lock the lock, so they went to give the key to Limbo Fu.Who knew that Qiu Ye came to invite Mrs. Lin to Xu's house this day, and Mrs. Lin went to Xu's house and said that she wanted to go back to Yuhang. Lin Bofu lowered his head and said, "Sister-in-law, I have a word, I..."

It turned out that Lin Bofu was in a hurry to get cash, and wanted to pledge this dowry house.

Mrs. Lin felt that something was wrong, "The house is yours in the first place, you can do whatever you want, your elder brother and I are going back, so we won't be able to live anymore. But you just got married, why do you need so much cash?"

Lin Bofu lowered his head and said, "Sister-in-law, Zhihe (Xu Wen's long word) seems to have encountered a difficulty."

Mrs. Lin almost jumped up, thinking of Mrs. Jia Guogong's appearance when she tried every means to obstruct Lin Bofu's marriage with the Xu family, "Don't be stupid, put yourself in it. He treats you well, that's all. He treats you badly." it is good……"
