Chapter 66: The Eight Trigrams of the Palace in the Tea House
Chapter 66: Palace Gossip in the Tea House
"I've heard, I've heard, that crazy man kept saying that the Crown Prince touched his wife, and now he's going to treat him like a human being and touch the Crown Prince's wife too!" said the nephew of Shangshutang.
The Prime Minister's concubine burst out laughing, wiping his mouth with a handkerchief and saying, "There is such a strange thing! Tell me, is that crazy man really crazy or fake?"
"I don't know. But I heard that after the wedding, Duke Huo drove all the guests home without even finishing the banquet. He returned to the inner house, closed the door, and ordered his servants to bring the family law on the spot. He wanted to hit Prince Huo with a stick! Mrs. Huo held back and refused to let him hit, so Duke Huo became so angry that he knocked Prince Huo to the ground with a stick and fainted himself," said the nephew of Shangshutang.
"Hahahaha..." The prime minister laughed again, and after he finished laughing, he asked: "Then it must be true that Prince Huo forced a woman from a good family to be raped?"
"Who knows?" Shang Shutang's nephew threw a grape into his mouth and said, "But even if it is true, there will be no trouble. Even if there is a trouble, the emperor will not do anything to them."
The prime minister's concubine nodded and said, "That's right."
When Wu Moyun heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "May I ask why the emperor won't do anything to them?"
The two noble gentlemen were stunned and looked at each other.
Wu Moyun has always been taciturn, but today's wedding farce at Duke Huo's house has aroused his curiosity.
The nephew of Shangshutang loved to show off. Seeing Wu Moyun asking him, he said "Hi" and explained: "It's nothing more than four words, external strength and internal favor. This external strength is easy to understand. Duke Huo's two My younger brothers are all serving in the army. Although they are not first-rate generals, they have outstanding military achievements. Your Majesty still has to rely on them. As for your favorite..."
When the nephew of Shangshutang said this, he deliberately let it go and took a sip of tea before continuing: "As for this favorite, naturally it refers to the concubine Hui in the palace. Concubine Hui is the direct sister of Duke Huo. She is Prince Huo's biological aunt, and with her sitting in the palace, even if something happens in the Huo family, the emperor will not punish her too much."
The Prime Minister's concubine nodded in agreement.
The nephew of Shangshutang continued to break the news: "What's more, the triennial draft is coming again. I heard from the eunuch who is friends with my cousin's family that His Majesty plans to promote the old man to the position of the old man before the new man enters the palace. Although Concubine Hui has no son, she does have a princess under her knees, who is your Majesty’s only daughter. Concubine Hui has no merit but hard work, and she has been with you for many years, so this time your Majesty wants to promote her to Concubine Hui.”
"Is it absolutely true?" The Prime Minister's concubine opened his eyes wide and said in surprise: "It is not uncommon to be granted the title of concubine, but it is a major event for the court. If what you say is true, then the Huo family will be in trouble!"
The two of them were talking to each other, as if they had forgotten that there was Wu Moyun beside them.
Wu Moyun was also happy that he was ignored, quietly stood up, walked out of the pavilion, and came to the lake.
This area of water is called the East Sea, and the place separated by an island is the West Sea.A few steps further from the West Sea is the Royal Garden Ganquan Palace.
On the coast of the East China Sea, the breeze blows.
Wu Moyun has haircut like a knife, eyebrows like a folded sword, starry eyes and a bold nose, red mouth and white teeth. He has a graceful demeanor and a young man like jade.
He looked at the scattered clouds on the horizon and blinked his long eyelashes.
Looking back, everyone in the pavilion was chatting animatedly.
Speaking of which, he established the Yuhuan Teahouse by himself.
Most of the people who attend the teahouse are concubines, distant relatives or nephews from the noble families. They have no hope of inheriting the title and inheriting the family business, so they often engage in dissolute behavior, which is ignored by their families. It is the most common thing to come here to drink tea and fight crickets. But nothing.However, even so, he, Wu Moyun, is the lowest status among these people.
After Mr. Wu was dismissed from office and demoted, no one from the Wu family became an official, and the status of the Wu family was no different from that of common people.But when Wu Moyun opened this teahouse, some people cheered him. Not only because he was quiet by nature and didn't like to fight with others, but also because everyone rewarded Wu Moyun for the sake of the prince of Huayin Hou.
Those dandies looked down on Wu Moyun from the bottom of their hearts, but seeing that he was taciturn and quiet, he wasn't annoyed even if they stabbed him, and they were happy to get along with him.He also knew that the always aloof Prince Huayin was actually on good terms with him, so he guessed that this man must have something special about him, so he went back and forth and favored this teahouse.
"Third Master, it's getting late. Why don't you tell all the young masters to leave?"
Wu Moyun glanced at A Yuan, nodded, and said, "Go home."
……
Mei Jiaolan returned to Wu Mansion and saw that Wu Moyun had not returned home yet, so she took out her account book and, together with Yingchun, recorded the things brought back from her parents' house one by one and put them into the treasury.
After recording the accounts, he sent his mother-in-law to Jinshizhai to order the meals for tonight. At the same time, he also ordered Al Fang to send all the gifts to each room, and told Al Fang to be sure to explain them personally. The gift was the big brother of Mei Mansion. The one given by the wife represents the eldest wife’s thoughts.
After finishing all this work, Mei Jiaolan had time to go to the inner room to change clothes and wash her face.
Then as soon as he came out, his mother-in-law reported that Wu Moyun was back.
As soon as Mei Jiaolan saw Wu Moyun, she smiled and said, "There is no need to send anyone to invite him this time. The third master came uninvited."
Wu Moyun had a gentle smile on his lips and said, "Are you hungry? When you are hungry, you want to eat."
"Third Master is absolutely right!" Mei Jiaolan asked, sitting at the table with the man. "It's rare to see Third Master with a smile on his face. He must have had a lot of fun today. But he won the cricket fight."
Wu Moyun glanced at Mei Jiaolan's face and said: "I lost two, won three, and all the money I won was used to treat guests to tea, so I won't lose or gain."
After saying that, he asked Mei Guerlain: "What about you?"
Mei Jiaolan said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether I am happy or worried. After all, I am not the protagonist today, but a spectator." After saying this, she paused and asked, "Have you heard about what happened at the Huo Mansion wedding today?" Something about?"
Wu Moyun shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Mei Jiaolan believed it to be true, so she told Wu Moyun everything about Mei Zhutao being humiliated, Huo Zhaogang going crazy, and Mei Liu's daughter-in-law complaining about her grievances.
She narrated and basically introduced all aspects of what happened today, except that she hid the fact that she arranged for Wangcai to drug Huo Zizhou.
After hearing this, Wu Moyun nodded, thought about it in his mind, and came to a conclusion, "That Huo Zizhou was not beaten unjustly."
When Mei Jiaolan heard this, she felt a little surprised.
The men's view of things is slightly different from the women's view of things.
Huo Zizhou's wife was raped, and he beat her severely instead. In the eyes of many men, it was commonplace.Those who have a little bit of conscience will say that Huo Zizhou beat him too hard, while those who have no sympathy will just regard his wife as property and deal with it as he pleases...
