Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 224 Visit
Chang'an Hou Mansion Zhu Lao Hou Ye's study room lights did not turn off all night, the next day at dawn, Mrs. Zhou opened the door and entered the study room, Zhu Lao Hou Ye was half lying on the rocking chair and dozed off, did not open his eyes, said slowly Said: "I'm fine."

"Did Officer Zheng come here in person yesterday?" Mrs. Zhou sat down on the brocade stool next to Master Zhu, her voice was calm as if she was talking about homework.

"Well, I sent a few brochures, and there is another sentence. The official said that I should choose a commander for him to lead the northern expedition." Master Zhu put his hands on his stomach, his eyes were still open, Old Man Zhou The man's expression changed slightly, he stood up and took a few very conspicuous booklets placed in the middle of the table, flipped through them quickly while standing, slowly put down the booklets, turned around and looked at Old Master Zhu worriedly, Master Zhu opened his eyes , looked at his wife with gentle eyes and said: "It's not a bad thing for the officials to let me take this book."

"The officials are too thoughtful." Mrs. Zhou seemed very worried: "The relationship between him and Aunt Yao back then was unknown to others, but we could see it clearly. At that time, I thought that once the official became the throne So King Shou had to be made the crown prince. Who knew that King Shou became quieter every year, but Dongyang County’s mansion became more and more powerful, with children, protégés, and in-laws all over the court and the public. Fang, I thought that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather, but the official family has not established a fourth master. Tell me, what is the official family's intention? In what time has there never been a prince like this? Now The situation in the court is the same as fire and water, if we don’t hurry up and install a crown prince, won’t the officials be afraid that the capital will be bloody again?”

"Officials never care about how much blood is shed or how many people die." Old Master Zhu's attitude was indifferent. In fact, he didn't care, as long as the one who died was not a child of the Zhu family.Mrs. Zhou sighed and asked, "Have you made up your mind?"

"I was going to discuss with you." Master Zhu had just begun to speak, when there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, the servant respectfully reported outside the door: "Old Master, Lord Shou Wang came to see you." Zhu Laohou The master jumped up, and Mrs. Zhou also stood up with a 'huh', and the two looked at each other, each other's eyes were full of shock.

Zhu Laohou had gone out for two meals before coming in. As soon as Mrs. Zhou heard the footsteps, she stood up to greet the upper room, and Zhu Lao Hou motioned her to enter the room to talk.

"What happened so early in the morning?" Mrs. Zhou had been worrying about it for a long time, and asked before Zhu Lao Hou Ye stepped into the threshold.

"Come and ask me to be the deputy commander of Beizheng." Master Zhu's expression was dignified, Mrs. Zhou tripped in shock, Mr. Zhu hurriedly supported his wife, Mrs. Zhou didn't seem to notice that she almost tripped , tightly grasping Master Zhu's hand and said: "Did Officer Zheng come here in person yesterday? A secret decree?"

"Mr. Zheng didn't say it was a secret decree, but he screened everyone away. It came out of his mouth and into my ears." Zhu Laohou helped his wife to sit down and sat opposite Mrs. Zhou: "Old lady, this is not an easy matter. It is Mr. Zheng. I came here in person, and it’s such a book, how did Prince Shou know?”

"Could it be a coincidence?" Mrs. Zhou didn't dare to think too much, Zhu Laohou shook his head: "How can there be such a coincidence? Which coincidence is there no hand behind it?"

"Is that the official family? Or is it Mr. Zheng?" Madam Zhou was startled by any conjecture. Mr. Zheng has been with the official family since he was a child, and he only has the official family in his heart. No exaggeration, he is very strict and seldom talk, I wish the old Hou Ye a long life, his eyebrows trembled, his eyes flickered, and it took him a while to say: "Shou Wang knows about these few books. , what about the fourth master?" Master Zhu was lost in thought, Mrs. Zhou looked at him worriedly, and after a while, Master Zhu looked at Mrs. Zhou and said: "Don't rush to answer the paper, today is Fan On Mrs. Xiang's birthday, all the old wives and wives from all the houses must be there, so you should go there early to see what's going on, and if you can visit Mrs. Sun to see if she knows about it, that would be even better."

"Okay, what about you?"

"I can't go. Firstly, I will not go back early. Secondly, I have received these booklets, so it is not appropriate to walk around."

Mrs. Zhou didn't know that it was inappropriate for Old Master Zhu to go, but the inner house is an inner house after all, not everyone is like her and Old Master Zhu. Everything is discussed between the husband and wife. Mrs. Sun used to be Dongyang. The backbone of the county prince's mansion, but now, she has been kept a secret about the matter of the fourth elder brother accepting the Sun family's wife.

Jin'an County Prince's Mansion, the fifth prince came back near the dawn, Li Tian hurriedly put it on, the fifth prince's eyes were a little red, and he was tired and excited, seeing Li Tian coming in, waved Qing Zhi and other girls away, looked Li Tian said in a low voice: "Last night, my father asked people to send the papers of each family's invitation to the war to Zhu Laohou's mansion, saying that he was asking him to suggest a candidate for the Northern Expedition. My eldest brother is going to ask Zhu Laohou to be his deputy." Handsome, I went to the Marquis of Chang'an early in the morning."

"Who is going to pass on the decree?" Li Tian asked in surprise, the fifth prince's slender eyebrows were half raised and then fell: "I didn't ask the elder brother, but Sun Liu was watching the movements of each family. Yesterday, the Marquis of Chang'an only took over one Internal attendant: Senior Officer Zheng." The fifth prince's extremely beautiful narrow eyes were full of smiles, his smile was like the first light of the yellow mountain after fog, it was dazzling, Li Tian abruptly looked away.

"Miss Zhu's family is the fourth master's concubine, but the official family asked Master Zhu to suggest a candidate." Li Tian frowned slightly, and the fifth prince stretched his waist: "In the past, Miss Zhu's family was also the side concubine of the first prince. , Marriage is nothing to the Zhu family, it is easy to use, and even easier to cut." Li Tian was silent, not only the Zhu family, but also a big family that can stand for more than a hundred years, which one is not like this?
"I have long thought that Mr. Zheng is the elder brother's man, as expected. Mrs. Fan Xiang is celebrating her birthday today. The Zhu family and the Ye family must go to celebrate her birthday. You should pay attention to what the old ladies and wives mean, especially Mrs. Sun And Mrs. Zhou, it would be even better if we could get over with Mrs. Zhou's sense of the fact that the official's affection for the elder brother is extremely unusual."

"Sister-in-law, will you go?" Concubine Shou Wang is gentle and quiet, and she rarely goes out for a walk. Today, she was too polite to refuse the invitation because of discomfort, but today something happened. Li Tian couldn't help asking, and the fifth prince shook his head: "Sister-in-law I'm not used to this." The fifth prince paused, as if he was thinking about what to say: "Sister-in-law, what should I say, she is from a scholarly background, knowledgeable, virtuous and gentle, well-managed, good at everything, the best one It is strictly adhering to the female training, very clear inside and outside, never asking about anything outside, big brother respects her very much."

Li Tian frowned, Shou Wang respected her and never asked about outside affairs, what about herself?The fifth prince looked at her slightly frowned brows like a clear light and the fog suddenly formed in the moonlight. He felt uncomfortable being dragged by the fog, so he hurriedly reached out to embrace her from behind, and rubbed his chin against her soft hair to comfort her. Said: "Brother is going to be an official, so of course you have to respect this rule. If the concubine is not in charge of politics, the relatives will not lose their tails. That's a big problem. We are different. Master Jian has criticized me. If I marry you, I will be afraid of my internal affairs. Father, I'm still going down." The purpose refers to marriage?"

"Didn't you say that Master Jian is a liar who is used to talking nonsense? Then you also believe what he said? Besides, when have you ever been afraid of guilt?" Li Tian was troubled when he heard this horoscope of fear of guilt again. The prince struggled out of his arms, and shouted with 12 grievances, this Master Jian is a nonsense ancestor, he dares to criticize such words, how many princes are afraid of the country since the founding of the dynasty for a hundred years?Besides, blind criticism has to be judged by the person, right? Such a prince with a monstrous appearance and a peach blossom body is afraid of internal affairs?If you don't believe in ghosts, it will bring her a bad reputation in vain!She is really wronged.

"Master Jian hasn't missed it yet." The fifth prince grabbed Li Tian's hand, covered it in his hand and gently rubbed it against her chest, looked down at her thick eyelashes and angry, increasingly watery eyes, and hurriedly bowed down. The lower face kissed her eyes and said: "Tian Tian, ​​I've been looking for a prescription for what you're afraid of. There are plenty of such prescriptions in the womb. I invited Doctor Qiao, Doctor Huang and Doctor Jiang to have three meals. , Everyone said that this prescription is sure to be safe, have you slept well? I haven't slept all night, it's still early, I will sleep with you for a while?"

"Hey! Don't be like this! It's time to wake up, Madam Wu must be waiting at the gate of the courtyard." Li Tian's face was flushed by the hot breath on his body, and he was a head taller than her. It's not easy to tear your face, and you can't ask people to come in to help, and you can't earn money for a while, but your forehead is full of sweat.

"Just let her wait, and I'll hug you, and I didn't do anything else. How can I bear it if you keep rubbing back and forth?" The fifth prince saw Li Tian's face flushed like a rosy glow, as if she was blowing tenderly. Water dripped out of his breath, his heart was full of thoughts, and his heart was hot. He lowered his head and kissed Li Tian's cheek, and said vaguely, Li Tian was even annoyed by the heat on his body, and his head was dizzy: "There is still business today. ..."

"Well, where do you want to go? It's just that you have no business, and you can't prostitute yourself in the daytime." The fifth prince didn't know what he thought, giggled, and teased Li Tian's ear. Li Tian was extremely ashamed and angry, Zhang blushed and became hot. Hearing what he said, it became that she wanted to publicize prostitution in the daytime and he refused. How can one bear it!
"You're only prostitution in the daytime, let me tell you..." Li Tian raised his head and turned around, wanting to reprimand angrily, but when he should have reprimanded with dignity and righteousness, he was soft and weak when he spoke. It would be more appropriate to say that Jiao Didi's reprimand was more appropriate. He lowered his head and kissed her lips. Before she could react, the tip of his tongue had already poked in and searched for it. Li Tian was short of breath, dizzy and hot, and dizzy after being kissed by him. Well, the Beauty Pass is not just difficult for heroes.

There was another bang, and the two people who were dizzy rolled onto the kang at some point, and the poor kang was kicked to the ground by the fifth prince again.Qingzhi rushed in frightened, then hurriedly retreated, retreating faster than entering.The fifth prince sat up with his arms around Li Tian, ​​smiled lowly and said, "It's not good to prostitute yourself in the daytime, so please bear with it." Li Tian fell on his back angrily.
