Chapter 714
The capital city is not ordinary, the city gate alone is many times more magnificent than Zhuma Town.

Except for Xia Zheng and Lin Yi, everyone in the group was visiting the capital for the first time, so they were naturally excited and fresh.

Xiao Linshuang couldn't wait to open the curtain, not even afraid of the cold, and shouted excitedly: "Wow, the capital! We finally arrived in the capital!"

Lin Wei and Xiao He also poked their heads out together, looking curious and excited.

Only Lao Fan had a sullen face, folded his hands on his chest, didn't even lift his eyelids, and snorted: "What's so good about the capital, it's just a big bird cage! No, I want to go back to Zhuma Town, let me go." go back!"

As he said that, Lao Fan wailed loudly, but the few people who were looking at the city gate excitedly did not hear his accusation at all. There was no way, Lao Fan had said this sentence more than once or twice along the way. It's over, everyone has turned a deaf ear from the nervous comfort at the beginning to now, completely ignoring it.

Lin Yuan shook her head with a smile, and poked Xia Zheng's arm: "Didn't you say he hid? Is it really good to trick him back like this?"

Xia Zheng curled his lips: "He, didn't he hide out because he was afraid of trouble? Hmph, besides, even if there were still people thinking about what happened back then, they couldn't find trouble with him. No matter how powerful those two people in the palace were, they wouldn't dare Come to him blatantly! If you really came to look for him, it would be fine, wouldn't you just admit that you made a mistake?"

Lin Yuan nodded. On the way to Beijing, Xia Zheng had already told about the matter between Lao Fan and Concubine Liu. Discovered ahead of time and saved the sixth prince.

Of course, there is a more serious matter. It is said that when Concubine Shu gave birth to the second prince Zhao Hongde, she was in accidental distress. Although there is no definite evidence, the most suspected person is the concubine Liu and her mother who already have the second prince.

Concubine Shu is Xia Zheng's aunt, and she and Concubine Tian are close friends in the boudoir. If Concubine Shu gave birth to a prince, with the support of the Xia family, Concubine Shu's status would naturally threaten Concubine Liu. No wonder Concubine Liu Will be afraid.

Several people were talking, Xia Zheng's eyes froze suddenly, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Curious, Lin Yuan followed his gaze and saw a man and a woman walking side by side.

The man was tall and mighty, with broad shoulders. When he got closer, Lin Yuan realized that this man looked familiar. His thick eyebrows, high nose bridge, and mouth seemed to be an enlarged version of Xia Zheng!
Looking at Xia Zheng's indifferent appearance, Lin Yuan suddenly realized, isn't this Xia Zheng's eldest brother Xia Zhen?

Seeing his younger brother, Xia Zhen still had the same expressionless face, but his twinkling eyes betrayed his true nature, and a pair of beady eyes shot back and forth on several carriages. Don't look super majestic on the surface, but inside he is still the same. Xia Zheng was also dishonest.

The petite woman next to Xia Zhen is his fiancée Tian Hui.She is said to be petite, but she is actually half a head taller than Lin Yuan. Just standing with Xia Zhen, she looks like a small bird.

I saw that Tian Hui was wearing the most fashionable clothes at the moment, and the satin on his body was also a new material produced by the Jiangnan Wu family who won the crown of the imperial merchant this year.

Tian Hui is a typical lady, gentle and generous, with a pair of beautiful eyes looking shyly at Xia Zhen beside her.Moreover, even though she and Xia Zhen were walking side by side, careful people could find that Tian Hui's footsteps were half a step slower than Xia Zhen's.

Both elder brother and sister-in-law went out of the city gate to greet them in person, and Lin Yuan's family naturally couldn't sit still in the carriage anymore.

Xiao Yongyan was still young, afraid that he would catch a cold, so Liu did not get out of the carriage, but he opened the curtain of the carriage and nodded to Xia Zhen to say hello.

Don't look at Xia Zhen's serious face, but she is extremely polite. After greeting Lin Jiaxin and his wife with fists together, he said loudly, "Uncle Lin, Aunt Lin, you have worked hard this journey."

Lin Jiaxin replied with a smile, and was persuaded by Xia Zhen to return to the carriage.Although his legs are fine, they still feel a little uncomfortable when it is windy and rainy, so the whole family try their best not to let him get cold.

Seeing the eldest brother, Xia Zheng didn't have the enthusiasm that few people imagined, curled his lips, and looked very disgusted: "Why are you here, where's your mother?"

Xia Zhen rolled her eyes: "Stinky boy, don't think that I am here by myself. If it weren't for the fate of my parents, I wouldn't come to pick you up! Huh, say! If I don't come, do you want to come again?" Run away? You have done a lot of things like going through the house three times without entering, don't think I don't know."

Not to be outdone, Xia Zheng raised his eyebrows and squinted at him in disbelief: "Come on! It's so high-sounding, don't think I don't know. Didn't you just come here because you heard that I brought Daohuaxiang cakes? Last time Didn't you eat all the pastries you brought back, and you still..."

"What, what! What are you talking about? Why can't I hear it!" Before Xia Zheng finished speaking, Xia Zhen interrupted him loudly first, and raised his right hand to dig his ears, pretending to be something Xia Zheng was so angry that the corners of his mouth almost twitched.

Seeing how the Xia Zheng brothers disliked each other, Lin Yuan raised the corners of her mouth in a funny way.

Tian Huixu was used to seeing the appearance of the two brothers for a long time, so he didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, he walked up to Lin Yuan with a smile, reached out to hold her hand, and said happily, "You are Yuan'er, right? Princess After I came back, I talked about you all day long, and it was just as the princess said, smart, beautiful, and spiritual."

Tian Hui's undisguised praise made Lin Yuan's face turn red. Coupled with the clarity and sincerity in Tian Hui's eyes, she really liked Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan smiled embarrassedly: "Princess, you are really smart and beautiful, sister."

Lin Yuan's words are not polite. Tian Hui is indeed the most beautiful and gentle woman Lin Yuan has ever seen. Although Su Qiuyu is also beautiful, she feels very fake, not as sincere and enthusiastic as Tian Hui. .

It seems that Tian Hui really regards her as his future sister-in-law.

Compared with the high-quality silk and satin on Tian Hui, although the clothes on Lin Yuan and the others were the best in Zhuma Town, they still had a rural atmosphere.However, Tian Hui didn't take these things seriously at all, and greeted them affectionately. When he saw Xiao Linshuang and the cute little Yongyan, he became even more maternally loving, and hugged them and didn't let go.

Lin Yuan was speechless, so she had to let Xiao Linshuang follow Tian Hui to take her carriage.

Over there, Xia Zheng and his brothers, who just disliked each other just now, have joined forces and bickered in front of Lao Fan.Lao Fan hadn't bickered with these two brats for a long time, and it was like coming back to life after such a quarrel, ten years younger.

Tian Hui was angry and funny, and couldn't help reminding: "The princess is already waiting at home, let's go back quickly."

Having said that, Xia Zhencai patted her forehead suddenly, and said in a low voice, "Oh, why did I forget about mother! Hurry up, hurry up, the key is late, and I must be nagging me again!"

Lin Yuan curled her lips in amusement and got into the carriage.

Because Xia Zhen and Tian Hui came out of the city to pick him up in person, the soldiers guarding the city gate naturally let them go easily.

When passing through the city gate, Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly darkened, as if she had entered a tunnel in her previous life.However, after coming out of the tunnel, what I saw was a stretch of high mountains, but after coming out this time, what I saw was the bustling and bustling capital city.

Wide roads, bustling crowds, and all kinds of noisy and chaotic hawking sounds. Looking ahead, there are more tall restaurants and teahouses. The colors bid farewell to the monotonous gray and lacquered red, adding various All kinds of red, green and blue.

Looking far away, the faint yellow glazed light was dazzling. Lin Yuan knew that there was the center of the capital, where the emperor lived, the imperial palace.

No wonder Xia Zheng tried his best to publicize the prosperity of the capital, and it was really different from all the places Lin Yuan saw.

Xiao He and Lin Wei were so excited that they almost stretched out half of their bodies, and they saw Xiao Linshuang's body in front of them. Even though they were far away, Xiao Linshuang's cry had already spread to the carriage behind.

"Wow, it's so beautiful, there are so many people, no wonder my brother-in-law insisted on letting me come to the capital, haha ​​my brother-in-law really didn't lie!"

Hearing Xiao Linshuang's cry, Xia Zheng couldn't help laughing: "Damn girl, can I lie to her? Humph!"

Infected by everyone, Lin Yuan's interest also became high. She opened the curtain and looked out. Just like Ye City in Zhuma Town, there were many small merchants selling things on both sides of the bustling street, but they didn't sell them on the ground. Instead, they set up a stall, even if they were selling the most worthless flower ropes, it was a small stall.

Lin Yuan nodded secretly, no matter what, as long as there is a stall, it will look much more upscale.

Just as she was thinking, Lin Wei suddenly turned her head and waved at her: "Eldest sister, elder sister, come and see!"

Lin Yuan was puzzled, put down the curtain of the car on this side, and approached Lin Wei and Xiao He. Xia Zheng looked outside, guessed what they were talking about, and followed suit. Pushed to the other side.

"what happened?"

Lin Yuan was still wondering, and saw the restaurant that was slowly approaching outside. Although she couldn't see the inside, just looking at the door was more luxurious than all the stores she had seen before.

Two tall lacquered mahogany pillars were on the top of the door, and a couplet welcoming guests was engraved with gold leaf. Because the carriage didn't intend to stop, Lin Yuan didn't have time to read what was written on it.However, the huge signboard was carefully read.

"Zuixian Tower!" It turns out that this is the Zuixian Tower in the same line as the Zuixianju in Yecheng, and it is really extraordinary.

Xiaohe whispered worriedly: "This Zuixianju is so big, it can even go up to three Fuman buildings. If Sister Yuan'er opens a restaurant, can she still have business?"

Lin Wei frowned, quickly grabbed Xiaohe's sleeve, winked at her, and then pretended not to care and said, "What is this Zuixianlou? Haven't you tried eldest sister's craftsmanship? How can they compare?" Eldest sister? Besides, this Zuixianlou has been open for so many years, and the people in the capital must be tired of eating, and the restaurant opened by eldest sister just happens to give them a change of taste, and it will definitely be a hit!"

After receiving Lin Wei's wink, Xiao He quickly changed his mind and said yes repeatedly.

Naturally, Lin Yuan could clearly see the lawsuit between these two people. She knew that the two didn't want to hurt her self-confidence. .

Only when the opponent is strong enough will it be interesting, if they are all like the century-old bakery of Mengjia Distillery, then it will be boring.

Just as she was thinking, Lin Yuan frowned suddenly, and raised her hand to look.

Xia Zheng has been considerately helping Lin Yuan carry the car curtain, seeing her expression is different, he couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

Lin Yuan frowned, just now she clearly felt someone looking at her with malicious intent, why can't she find it now?
"It's okay, the business of Zuixianlou is really not so good." Lin Yuan looked away and said something from her heart.

Hearing her praise for her opponent, Xia Zheng nodded in agreement in a rare way: "Do you know why I opened a shop in Zhuma Town, Yecheng? My old man didn't allow me to do business, which is part of the reason. The status cannot be easily shaken. This restaurant is opened by the natal family of Zhao Hongsheng's mother concubine Liu Fei. These years, the Yan family only seems to be obsessed with running the restaurant, but secretly they still pay attention to the court affairs. To put it bluntly, this Zuixianlou can be so popular , It also has something to do with the relationship network that was secretly drawn in."

The corner of Lin Yuan's mouth twitched. It seems that doing business in the capital is not so easy.

It wasn't until the carriage of Lin Yuan and his party disappeared on the long street that Yao Hanyan's eyes slowly retracted.

Coincidentally, Yao's mansion happened to be on the same street as the house that Zhao Hongde gave to Lin Yuan.Yao Hanyan noticed that the house over there was being tidied up years ago, as smart as she was, she immediately noticed something was wrong.

That house was left by Concubine Shu's father, that is, Xia Zheng's grandfather, to Zhao Hongde, his grandson.And Zhao Hongde is not yet married, so naturally he lives in the palace.Then the only one who can enter the yard to clean up is the Xia family.General Xia Xia Yuan is still alive, so naturally he will not let his two sons go out to live. The only possibility is that the Xia family has important guests.

Sure enough, Yao Hanyan's maid reported that she had seen Princess Anle and came to the house in person early this morning.

Yao Hanyan thought for a while, and took Yao Zhilan to the Drunken Immortal Tower to wait. After waiting, she was not disappointed, and she really saw Xia Zheng walking closely with a poorly dressed woman.

Yao Hanyan's beautiful and unwavering eyes finally turned cold, and she really wanted to stare out a hole in the woman who was being cared for by Xia Zheng.

"Go home."

Yao Zhilan on the opposite side was still eating tea fruit with relish, and when her sister suddenly said that she was going back home, she couldn't help but feel a little reluctant, she flattened her mouth and acted like a baby: "Sister, it's hard for me to come out, let's stay later, okay? "

Yao Hanyan glanced at her slowly with cold eyes: "Did you forget your father's instructions when you went out?"

Yao Zhilan pursed her lips, lowered her head, and nodded: "Remember, don't stay outside for too long, don't cause trouble, and listen to your sister."

"Then let's go." After finishing speaking, Yao Hanyan stood up first and went downstairs.

Yao Zhilan followed behind, pursing her lips and muttering in a low voice: "You are the one who said it, and you are the one who went back. Why is it me that father lectures me every time? It seems that I suggested going out to play, so strange."
