Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 164

The fifth prince rushed out of the gate angrily, rode his horse and circled around the gate of the mansion several times, exited the alley, reined in the horse and stared blankly at the bustling street. It's been a while, where can he go?No, that mansion belongs to him!Why kick him out?I'm really dizzy, what are you running outside for?The fifth prince suddenly figured it out, turned his horse and rushed back to the door, jumped off the horse and rushed back angrily.

Yingluo stared blankly at the fifth prince who rushed straight into the room, why... came back again?
Li Tian's astonishment could hardly be concealed. She had just reflected on herself just now, and of course she had to be virtuous and virtuous at the moment. It wasn't natural, but they also didn't have the slightest intention of making trouble again. The two had their own ulterior motives, and neither of them mentioned what happened just now, as if it never happened at all.

The two ate, the fifth prince sipped his tea, lowered his eyelids and said, "I have something to discuss with you." Li Tian hurriedly motioned to Yingluo, and the fifth prince looked at all the maids and women to withdraw, and then put down the cup, He coughed lightly, and started with what he heard that Prime Minister Yao Jin'an was going to tell Linchuan Hou Jiang's family: "...the matchmaker who asked Sun Liuchang to go to Yao's and Jiang's houses to inquire about it, but they said they didn't hear it." When it came to Xin'er, I happened to meet Jiang Liulang today, so I asked, and said that the former wife of Duke Wen Guo, Mrs. Qiao, mentioned it to his mother once, and felt that Mrs. Yao Jiu, the youngest daughter of Prime Minister Yao, was just right for him."

The fifth prince raised his head and glanced at Li Tian. Li Tian was listening attentively. Mrs. Yao Jiu only had one direct sister, who married Ye Shusheng, the eldest son of Dongyang County Prince's Mansion, and the one who proposed marriage was Mrs. Wen Guogong... Li Tian met the fifth prince's gaze and said: "You Do you think it's inappropriate? Does the uncle know about this? What does he mean?" The fifth prince couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, talking to her was a way to save worry: "Brother heard about this first, the Yao family and the Jiang family are not suitable."

"Since Mrs. Wen Guogong proposed this marriage, the Yao family must be willing. This matter depends on the Jiang family's intentions. What does Jiang Liuye himself mean?" Li Tian frowned slightly, and the fifth prince looked at it appreciatively. Looking at Li Tian, ​​he said: "Jiang Liu means that he doesn't want to marry this family. Jiang Liu is cautious and cautious. The Yao family is like this, and they are in such a position. Naturally, he doesn't want to make such a relationship. Besides, Jiang Liu is also picky." Yes, although Mrs. Yao Jiu is nice, she doesn't quite suit him, he has always wanted to find a daughter-in-law that suits him."

"Well, Jiang's family really can't afford to take such a risk. Mr. Jiang Liu wants to find a wife he likes... Does he have someone he likes?" Li Tian reacted quickly, and the fifth prince smiled and nodded: "I I didn't expect that he actually fell in love with the eldest lady of the Yu family in Qingjiang Hou's mansion." Li Tian was stunned before realizing that Jiang Zhengyuan had a crush on Yu Yaofang?This is where the matter!
"When did he meet Yaoyao?"

"I asked him, and he said that the first time he paid attention to it was when he heard you, Mrs. Yu, and the second lady of Nanning County's mansion playing the Bijian Liuquan in Dongyang County Prince's Mansion one year. Refreshing, he said that he had never heard such a pure and elegant piece of music, so he paid attention to it, and then saw it a few times from a distance, and it turned out to be as good as the piece, so he thought it was good." The fifth prince explained, Li Tian frowned He frowns even tighter, looking at the Fifth Prince, he asked, "The Naqu Bijian Flowing Spring in Dongyang County Prince's Mansion happened two years ago. Since he paid attention to people, the capital is so big, he must have seen it a long time ago." , since you've taken a fancy to it, why didn't you ask someone to propose marriage earlier?"

The fifth prince frowned, Li Tian stared at him and said, "I have always regarded Yaoyao and Ake as my own sisters, and their marriage must not be sloppy at all."

"This matter cannot be studied in detail." The fifth prince explained with some ambiguity: "Jiang Liu has to weigh everything carefully, and calculate the pros and cons. At the beginning, he only liked the character of the eldest lady of the Yu family, and I am afraid that there is nothing else. Well, besides, he has always felt more comfortable not getting married, so he hesitated and dragged it down. Now that people are looking at him, if the Yao family fails, there must be a young lady from another family waiting. He is not young, and there is nothing good about it. Excuses can be used, but the matter of getting married can't be delayed any longer, so I have to quickly find a settlement that I like, besides, are you a princess now?"

Li Tian took a deep breath. She understood what the fifth prince meant. Jiang Liuyi was squeezed into a corner. He had to marry someone he liked, or marry someone else. Come on, since I became the concubine of the prince, Yu Yaofang has an extraordinary relationship with me, so the value is also slightly different. The fifth prince is now attached to the eldest prince... It can be considered as a shrewd person.

"I have to ask Yaoyao first about this matter." Li Tian looked up at the fifth prince and said, the fifth prince was stunned: "Ask Mrs. Yu first? What does she do? You can't ask Mrs. Xu about this matter first. mean?"

"Ask Yaoyao first!" Li Tian affirmed without doubt: "It is Yaoyao who wants to marry someone, first she has to fancy her, and she is willing to marry." The fifth prince blinked several times, forget it, he It's better not to talk too much, his daughter-in-law is different from ordinary people and cannot be deduced with common sense.

In the evening of the next day, it was snowing heavily in the capital, and the next day, the post of Dongyang County Prince's Mansion to appreciate the snow was sent to Jin'an County's Mansion. Li Tian found out that Lin Ke and Yu Yaofang also went to the mansion to enjoy the snow, and went out with the fifth prince and got into the car , to Dongyang County Prince's Mansion in the past.

After getting off the car at the second gate, the fifth prince helped Li Tian down, took a few steps, and sent Li Tian to the gate of the moon. Standing in the snow, he turned around and saw Li Tian's back, so he turned around. Go to the other side.

Ye Shusheng took two steps forward to meet the ceremony, while leading the fifth prince to Mingyuan Pavilion on the other side of the garden, he smiled and said: "I have something to ask the fifth master for advice, since I saw you today Fifth Master, I'll just be lazy and report."

"Look at what you said, what do you mean by showing off and not showing off? I'm not the fourth brother. If you talk to me like that, is it cold to me? Look, there are only three words on my body. : Uncomfortable!" The fifth prince said half-truth, and Ye Shusheng laughed at what he said: "The fifth master has now opened the mansion and sealed the county king... well, I see, let's talk like before, then I'll just go straight Said, it's not a big deal, it's the matter of Qu Yin next year, the fifth master also knows that two years ago, when Princess Ningguo was still there, Duke Wen's mansion also wanted to learn from other people's brewing, so they managed to get a lot of money from the checkpoint. Qu Yin passed by, and among them were several copies of Qianchunfang. Later, the eldest princess disappeared, and no one in Wen Guogong's mansion cared about this matter anymore. After entering the checkpoint, it seems that next year's Quyin will be distributed, those few Quyins earlier, do you still want Qianchunfang now?"

The Fifth Prince looked a little confused, thought for a while before replying: "Didn't Qianchunfang join Qingfeng Tower a long time ago? This is the first time I've heard of this song quotation. Is it urgent?"

"What's the rush?" Ye Shusheng sold this favor, so he naturally wanted to sell enough, he quickly waved his hands and smiled, and the fifth prince breathed a sigh of relief: "It's fine, I'll go back and ask shopkeeper Huang about it, Qingfenglou and He is in charge of Qianchunfang, so I won’t say thank you. When you have time, I invite you to look fresh and lively, and have fun. There are a few new female sumo wrestlers in Wazi, Dongcheng. Did you hear that?" The fifth prince gossips: "Thanks to Yao Shishi for the freshness and excitement, someday you are free, call a few more people, I treat you, let's have a good time, Yao Shishi said, A few female sumo wrestlers are good, and they look better, but I have been busy for a while, and I haven't opened my eyes yet."

As soon as Ye Shusheng heard about Yao Shishi, he knew that the bustle was nothing good, and hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I accept Fifth Master's wish. Seeing that the end of the year is approaching, I am so busy that I wish I could give birth to three heads and six arms. Invite fifth master to drink and have fun."

"Well, I'll invite you again after the new year..." The fifth prince and Ye Shusheng entered Mingyuan Pavilion talking and laughing affectionately all the way.

Many people had already arrived in Mingyuan Pavilion. Lin Yangwen was pulling Jiang Hong to talk not far from the door. When he saw the fifth prince coming in, he hurriedly pushed Jiang Hong and greeted him with a smile on his face. The prince is a serious relative.

The fifth prince has never been on airs. He is polite and affectionate to everyone he sees. He patted Lin Yangwen and joked affectionately. He casually took two steps sideways, but just avoided Lin Yangfeng. He stood in front of Jiang Hong and said with a smile: "The number one scholar When you are free, write me a couplet and hang it up. When I entered the palace yesterday, couplets from your new book were hung up in several places. It is really refreshing, the couplets are good, and the writing is even better, which is really rare!"

"Fifth Master, I'm sorry." Jiang Hong's smile was gentle but slightly alienated.

"I heard that the plaques and couplets in the palace are written by everyone, and my cousin's words are also hung in the palace? Why didn't I hear you say that?" Lin Yangwen came over and cried out in surprise. The fifth prince and Jiang Hong kissed each other with a smile. Well, a gentle smile, but no one answered Lin Yangwen's words. Jiang Hong was about to continue the politeness just now, when a gust of cold wind blew through the heavy curtain, Xu Sihai stepped over the threshold, and saw Jiang Hong and the fifth prince at a glance Waiting for the others, hurriedly took two steps forward, greeted the fifth prince respectfully and politely, said a few polite words, turned to look at Jiang Hong and said with a smile: "I learned a few good words last night, please help me read them." look?"

Jiang Hong nodded in agreement, the two of them and the fifth prince bowed their hands politely, and went to the Mingyuan Pavilion to write the new words that I don’t know if there are any. The fifth prince breathed out slowly, and stared at the two for a long time Only then did he look away, the two of them couldn't tell what was wrong, but something was wrong, the fifth prince squinted at Lin Yangfeng, took out his folding fan and patted him, pulling him to gossip.

Mingyuan Pavilion is getting more and more lively, and the people who enjoy the snow, read the literature, or join in the fun are divided into several large groups and more than a dozen small groups. Those who have literary talents and ambition gather around the fourth prince to exhibit their talents. Those who no longer need to show off their talents or be cautious, scattered in front of the window facing Meilin, in twos and threes, seeming to be in a group but not in a group, and there are those like Master Yao Shishi, who either really only know how to have fun, or play games. Those who played under the pretense of having fun gathered around the fifth prince to talk about eating, drinking and criticizing beauties.

Yao Shishi was a bit crazy, from the famous actors in the capital to the concubines of various families, and even the noble daughters in the capital, Jiang Zhengyuan hurriedly stopped him and said: "Stop it, it's impossible!" You can't do nonsense, and you know which women can be frivolous and which women can only be respected.

"Huh!" Yao Shishi suddenly slapped his thigh hard, pointed at the Fifth Prince and said, "I was about to ask you, but I almost forgot. One copy! There is plenty of money. It is unreasonable to say that you are harsh on servants. Anyway, I don’t believe it. You have to investigate this matter carefully when you go back, and designate which slave is spreading rumors. !"

Mingyuan Pavilion said that it was not too big, but Yao Shishi's voice was loud again. Just as he said the harsh words of the fifth prince's daughter-in-law, the atmosphere in the room suddenly stagnated, and the high-spirited talk stopped abruptly for a moment, and each of them pretended to be indifferent Continue to talk, the voice is much lower than before, no one knows what they are talking about, and what others are saying, they are all attentively listening to the movements of Yao Shisi and the fifth prince, but Yao Shisi doesn't realize it , Talking about being beaten to death with a board, he slapped his teeth with a folding fan for a few beats.
