Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 7 Gu Pan's Love

When everyone in the palace heard the movement, they gathered around one after another, only to see Zhu Qiyu suddenly slumped at the door of the carriage.

Cheng Jing hurried over to support him, and asked eagerly, "What's the matter, my lord?"

Zhu Qiyu was still in a daze, grabbed Cheng Jing's sleeves, and sighed to himself: "Unexpectedly, there are really fox fairies in this world, it shows that the heaven treats me well!"

Cheng Jing saw that Zhu Qiyu, who was always simple and simple, suddenly became polite, and his speech changed into the tone of a poor scholar hanging his book bag, and he almost fell down in fright.

For a moment, Cheng Jing almost thought that Zhu Qiyu was possessed by a goblin and changed his soul.

Fortunately, Zhu Qiyu was only distracted for a moment, and then he woke up.Seeing that everyone in the palace was looking at him with concern, he quickly waved his hands to signal everyone not to worry.

Then he cleared his throat again, waved his hands, and said solemnly:

"It's nothing, it's nothing, everyone, don't be nervous. It's just that a little fox fairy came into the carriage, and this enchantress transformed into a peerless beauty with a rare appearance.

I was caught off guard just for a moment, and was fascinated by her.

Fortunately, since I was a child, I hung my head on the beam, pierced my buttocks, chiseled the wall to steal the light, and the firefly reflected the snow. I worked tirelessly and read the books of the sages.Only then can one possess a noble and upright spirit, awe-inspiring and inviolable.

Don't panic, everyone, go back to the Buddha Hall and wait.After I finish her cooking, let's continue on our way.If you go to Beijing to go to the test, you will be able to win, and at least you will come back with the champion. "

As soon as Zhu Qiyu's words fell, everyone couldn't bear it any longer, and they all burst into laughter.

Even Cheng Jing who was closest to Zhu Qiyu couldn't laugh or cry.When he was about to lift the curtain to see what was going on inside the carriage, he was afraid of breaking the rules and making Zhu Qiyu angry.

When he was about to throw away his hands, he couldn't suppress his curiosity, and he didn't know what was going on in the carriage, which made the gentle and elegant Zhu Qiyu lively and agile all at once.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Cheng Jing, looked around, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: Sure enough, no matter what dynasty or generation, people like ghost sketches: barren hills and ruined temples, scholar fox fairies, lonely men and widows, living together in the same room, just thinking about it is glamorous and exciting .

Fortunately, everyone didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and after laughing, they all felt that they had retreated to the Buddhist temple, leaving the opportunity to subdue the Yaoye Lingji to their highness.

Zhu Qiyu glanced back at the Buddha Hall, causing another burst of laughter.Even Cheng Jing joked: "Second son, please go forward bravely and don't worry about the future, but when things don't work, there is still Buddha here."

Seeing Zhu Qiyu being teased by Cheng Jing, everyone laughed even harder.

Zhu Qiyu gave everyone a hard look, opened the curtain, turned around and got into the car.

Zhu Qiyu deliberately made jokes to delay the time, so that the girl in the car had time to tidy up her appearance.

When Zhu Qiyu entered the carriage again, the girl had already tidied up and was sitting on the soft couch.Seeing Zhu Qiyu coming in, he stood up and bowed gracefully.

Zhu Qiyu took a closer look at this girl, and unconsciously thought of the famous saying of later generations:

Two curved eyebrows that seem to be frowning but not frowning, and a pair of eyes that seem to be happy but not happy.

When it is quiet, it is like a beautiful flower shining on the water, and when it is in action, it is like a weak willow supporting the wind.

Zhu Qiyu was stunned for a moment, only to feel that a younger sister Lin had fallen from the sky, and immediately said with a smile: "Your surname is Lin?"

The girl raised her head in astonishment when she heard this, and asked back with a full face of wariness: "How did you know?"

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "I don't know, I just got caught up casually, maybe I really guessed right?"

The girl nodded.

Zhu Qiyu asked again: "Who is the girl, why did she appear in my carriage?"

The girl smiled and said: "In front of Baoding Mansion, there is a royal official, also known as Wang Dashan, who is the richest person in the mansion. The slave family was originally a female slave raised by Wang Dashan, who ran out yesterday, and now I am a concubine. A fugitive slave."

"A fugitive slave?"

Zhu Qiyu felt a little unconfident at the frank words of the girl in front of him, so he poised his neck and asked, "Although I don't read much, but according to my opinion, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, if a fugitive slave is caught, he will be severely punished." Punish it.

I don't know why the girl said the word 'fleeing slave' so righteously and aboveboard.Am I misunderstanding the current world? "

Miss Lin smiled sweetly, and asked back: "Didn't the young master just now claim to be chiseling the wall to steal light and hanging beams to stab the buttocks outside the car? How come it only takes a while, but it turns out that you don't read much?"

Zhu Qiyu saw that the girl in front of her had eyebrows like a small moon and eyes like twin stars.Where there is a frown and a smile, the eyes are flowing, looking forward to expressing love; every word is like a flower, like a jade, like a fragrance.Unconsciously, he was secretly happy, so he no longer bothered about whether the escaped slave or not escaped the slave.

So Zhu Qiyu laughed again: "Xiaosheng dares to ask the girl's name?"

Miss Lin pestered her for a while before replying: "I think about the past, but I don't want to mention the previous name."

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "I see that the girl is eloquent, warm and moist like jade, her eyebrows are like a small moon, and she is frowning. How about calling her Lin Xiangyu from now on?"

Miss Lin said with a smile: "Why not, the life of the slave family is now in the hands of the young master. Naturally, the young master will do whatever he wants. If one is not good, if there is a slight collision, the young master will be treated as a witch."

When Zhu Qiyu heard the words 'held in the hands of the young master', he couldn't help raising his right hand in front of him, and smelled it lightly, as if there was a lingering fragrance in his hand.

Seeing this, Lin Xiangyu blushed immediately, and glared at Zhu Qiyu pretending to be fierce.

Zhu Qiyu knew that he had lost his composure, so he could only laugh a few times, and asked Lin Xiangyu to sit on the soft couch, while he himself sat on the side couch, and asked curiously:
"As the saying goes: Once you enter the Hou's family, it's as deep as the sea. Since Wang Dashan's family is one of the few wealthy people in Baoding Mansion, it seems that the family business is not small. I don't know how the girl escaped alone?"

Lin Xiangyu smiled and said: "My family is from Yangzhou, have you heard of Yangzhou skinny horse?"

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and Lin Xiangyu continued: "That man Wang Dashan was also from Juren, and he was a Beijing official. Later, he was dismissed due to some incidents, and he was idle at home, so he became arty, imitating the wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, and bought more than a dozen women from Yangzhou. , raised a skinny horse, and the slave family was one of them.

The wife of his wife is jealous, so naturally she doesn't approve of him doing such a thing.So he had no choice but to set up another small courtyard and raise us in it.Since it is a separate courtyard, the guards are far less strict than the main residence. Besides, we have been docile and law-abiding for seven or eight years. Over time, the defense against us has become very loose, so the slave family escaped easily. "

Zhu Qiyu asked curiously: "Then how do you leave the city? Don't you strictly check when you leave the city?"

Lin Xiangyu smiled and said: "Sure enough, the young master is from a wealthy family, so he doesn't know much about these trivial matters. The interrogation at the gate of the city has always been strict when entering the city and when leaving the city.

Officials and wealthy people are all in the city, so they are naturally afraid of criminals, bandits and other lawless people entering the city, so they are strictly checked when they enter the city.The people living outside the city are ordinary people, and the government doesn't care about safety, so it's very easy to go out of the city to check.

The slave family is dressed in beautiful clothes, and at first glance it looks like everyone's maid.When they saw the gatekeepers, they said that they were going out of the city to visit their relatives, and with a few pieces of silver, they left the city easily. "

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and asked again: "Why did the girl appear in the carriage?"
