Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 202
Dong Shuzhen was stunned, "Of course I do. Hey, Wu'er, what do you mean?"

"Miss, you should go and learn more kung fu, even better than Yan Dashan, then you can stay by your uncle's side and protect him!" A proud smile appeared on Xia Wu's face.

Dong Shuzhen's eyes lit up and her heart suddenly moved.

This is really a great idea!
It can not only stay with your husband for a long time, but also protect him!
You can still go out and play!
Simply perfect!
……

……

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

The past two days have been relatively uneventful.

There are no more vicious incidents of assassinations and bandits in the entire Jiangzhou!
As the governor of a state, Dong Cheng still went to the Yamen to sit in the Yamen every day.

Zhu Xiuyuan, the Jiangzhou Sima, began to "ask for leave" again and did not go to the Yamen for the past two days.

His first priority now is to take care of the old beggar.

Every day, a new dish recorded in the "Secret Book of Searches" was fed to the old beggar.

The old beggar, who was well fed and drunk, was not idle either. He "tortured" Yan Dashan in the small courtyard all day long.

Although Zhu Xiuyuan was in pain when he looked at it, it was said that Dashan told him privately that his force value had soared rapidly in the past two days, and Yan Dashan expressed that he was very satisfied.

Dong Shuzhen adopted the idea of ​​Xia Wu, the dog-headed military advisor, and pestered the old beggar to teach him martial arts every day.

The old beggar was so entangled that he had no choice but to teach Dong Shuzhen another kind of martial arts, the kind that didn't require him to scream until he was tortured.

As for the new dishes every day, they are still cooked by Dong Shuyu’s skillful hands.

In the kitchen, Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuyu flirted with each other every day. The tacit understanding between them became better and better, and they cooperated very happily.

However, the "relationship" between Dong Shuyu and Zhu Xiuyuan troubled the two maids Chun Xue and Dong Mei.

The two of them saw with their own eyes that the booklet recording the cooking steps was getting fuller and fuller with each passing day, and the beautiful small regular scripts gradually piled up. They saw with their own eyes that their young lady was getting deeper and deeper, but there was nothing they could do.

……

The past two days have passed like this.

Until the third day, Poyang King's [-]th birthday banquet!
This morning, Zhu Xiuyuan got up early.

He went to have breakfast first, and when he came back he changed into gorgeous clothes.

After changing clothes and going out, he saw Dong Shuzhen standing in front of the door of his room, looking eagerly at Zhu Xiuyuan.

Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

He consoled her: "Madam, the Princess of Poyang has passed away a long time ago. There are no seats for the female family members at this prince's fiftieth birthday banquet... Madam, please stay at home and wait for your husband to come back and bring you delicious food."

"Well..." Dong Shuzhen grunted aggrievedly, "I...I am preparing to give you a gift..."

Zhu Xiuyuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, and walked to the door of the house first.

Poyang Prince's Mansion is located in Hukou garrison town on the other side of the estuary of Poyang Lake.

It's a long way there, so we have to go to the gate of the mansion to take a carriage.Dong Shuzhen followed Zhu Xiuyuan sluggishly.

Moreover, she was dressed up and looked like she was going out to a banquet with Zhu Xiuyuan...

Zhu Xiuyuan tried not to look at her.

In case he couldn't hold it back for a while, he took her there.

Needless to say, the birthday banquet of Poyang Prince's Mansion must be attended by a bunch of big men.

Dong Shuzhen is really not suitable to go to such a place.

If Princess Poyang was still alive, there would definitely be a seat for the female family members. In that case, it would be okay to take Dong Shuzhen to the banquet with her.

After meeting his father-in-law, Li Linzhou, and the old beggar at the gate of the house, everyone got on the carriage and drove away.

Zhu Xiuyuan opened the side window of the carriage and looked towards the door of the house.

I saw Dong Shuzhen leaning on the door frame, one hand on the red lacquer door, her head raised, looking longingly at the leaving carriage...

"Wait for us to come back!"

Zhu Xiuyuan shouted and waved his hand.

Then he resolutely withdrew his gaze and stopped looking.

Staggering along the way, the carriage quickly left the city.

After walking on the official road for a while, everyone came to the mouth of Poyang Lake.

Everyone got off the bus, transferred to the ferry boat, crossed the entrance of Poyang Lake and landed ashore. Generals sent by the royal family were waiting here.

The generals brought several carriages specifically for transporting distinguished guests attending the royal birthday banquet.

Everyone got on the palace's carriage, and not long after, the carriage stopped again.

"Distinguished guests, we have arrived..." Someone announced the stop outside the carriage.

So Zhu Xiuyuan, Dong Cheng, Li Linzhou, the old beggar, etc. jumped off the carriage one by one. Dong Cheng took the invitation and the gift list, and walked into the Poyang Palace under the leadership of the palace general.

During the series of disasters half a month ago, Dong Cheng, Zhu Xiuyuan, etc. had established a close relationship with the Poyang Palace.

This time it was King Poyang's fiftieth birthday, and they came as distinguished guests.

Li Linzhou, who was originally the magistrate of Xunyang County, was promoted to the governor of Jiangzhou due to his merit.

What's more, Li Linzhou is Dong Cheng's brother-in-law, so he is also fortunate to be invited to the prince's birthday banquet.

As for the old beggar...he just came here to taste the delicious food.

The old beggar still wore the same clothes. He was really an old beggar, and he stood out in front of the palace gate.
