Rebirth of the ghost concubine of the confused country

Chapter 232 The Distinguished Guest of Chunxiang Garden
After watching the sunrise, Zhu Zixin bid farewell and went back to Dongli Garden. On the way, he ran into Colin and asked him if he had caught up with the man in black. Colin shook his head and said nothing, his eyes full of frustration.

"Forget it, maybe that person is just passing by, don't be too nervous!"

Zhu Zixin patted him on the shoulder and said.

Zhu Ziyi also laughed and said:

"It's just a small matter, don't be depressed!"

Colin didn't say anything, but followed Zhu Zixin wordlessly.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Hou Mansion was surprisingly deserted. I saw a few servants sweeping the yard. After seeing them, they bent down to salute, and then went back to work.

Zhu Zixin felt a little weird, so he couldn't help asking Zhu Ziyi:
"Brother, don't you think there is something weird in the mansion?"

"There are a few fewer people this year, so it's naturally a little deserted, no wonder!"

Zhu Ziyi didn't see anything, and said.

In fact, what he said was right, without the noisy Ge Lirong, the mother and daughter, the entire Hou Mansion seemed to have fewer people.

"Well, it seems that I was worrying too much!"

Zhu Zixin said.

After finishing speaking, she covered her mouth and let out a long yawn:
"I haven't slept all night. I'm really tired. Go to sleep first."

After finishing speaking, he took Xiaocui and Kelin to Dongli Garden.

Zhu Ziyi also turned around and walked towards his Ai Lianju. Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door of the study, he heard a voice from inside:
"stop."

It's Zhu Jing.

Zhu Ziyi stood still, turned around and looked over, and saw Zhu Jing standing in front of the steps in black clothes, with a haggard face, as if he hadn't rested well.

"I don't know what you can do with Lord Hou?"

Zhu Ziyi raised his eyebrows, and asked with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Ever since he learned the truth, his attitude towards Zhu Jing has changed to what it is now.

"Ziyi, after the new year, you are already 19 years old, and it's time to start a family. Dad thought about it for a long time last night, and decided to find a matchmaker to come to our house today, and find a good marriage for you. I don't know you How do you feel?"

Zhu Jing's attitude was unusual and kind, even though Zhu Ziyi treated him like this, he didn't mind at all, which was completely different from his previous attitude towards Zhu Ziyi. '

However, even so, Zhu Ziyi didn't buy it, but even so, his heart still skipped a beat.

He thought to himself: "I'm really afraid of what will come. I just told my mother last night that this is what I'm most worried about. Today, he came to mention this. It's really a pot that doesn't open! How does he answer this?"

Zhu Ziyi thought for a long while, and finally gave it up, saying:
"Master Hou, Shu Ziyi cannot follow orders!"

After speaking, he waved his long sleeves and wanted to leave the way.Zhu Jing smiled lightly and said:

"Father knows, you are naturally a little surprised to tell you this out of the blue, and it is reasonable for you not to accept it. I don't blame you. You can go down and rest first, but I hope you can consider Dad's proposal."

Unexpectedly, his attitude could be so gentle, Zhu Ziyi's walking body paused, but it was only a moment's hesitation, and he strode away again.

Zhu Jing stood where he was and saw him walking away, so he ordered the servant behind him:

"Come on, lead the way, the old man is going to meet that girl named Hanyu!"

The servant didn't dare to be negligent, he hurriedly bowed and walked forward, Zhu Jing followed behind him, and the two quickly left the Hou's mansion, heading towards Chunxiang Garden where Hanyu was.

Zhu Ziyi was completely unaware of all this, after he returned to his Ai Lianju, he fell headlong on the bed and fell asleep with his head covered.

Besides, Zhu Jing went straight to Chunxiangyuan all the way, and when he reached the door, he saw a sign hanging on the door:
"Today is the holiday, rest for a day, and please send us a lot of letters of guarantee!"

The inscription is Chunxiangyuan.

"Master, this..."

Seeing this brand, the boy turned around and asked, not knowing what to do.

"Knock on the door!"

Zhu Jing looked at the sign, but still ordered.

"Yes."

The young man responded, stepped forward, and rattled the bright red door knocker.

That voice lasted for a while, before I heard a voice full of complaints coming:

"Come on, come on, didn't you say that we are closed today?..."

Before he finished speaking, the door was opened.

The boy saw that the person was dressed in sapphire blue clothes, his head was surrounded by jewels and emeralds. Although he was a bit handsome, he couldn't hide the vicissitudes of life. With the worldly look on his face, he knew that this person must be the old bustard here!So he raised his chin arrogantly and said to the man:

"You still don't come over to salute after seeing Lord Hou?"

"Master Hou?"

When the old bustard heard it, she didn't realize it for a while. She glanced at Zhu Jing, rolled her eyes a few times, and was still a little dazed, but after all, she was used to rolling around in the wind and dust. What Marquis, this identity alone is enough for her to drink two pots, so naturally she didn't dare to offend, so she hurried over with a smile on her face, bent over and saluted:

"The housewife pays homage to Lord Hou!"

After finishing speaking, he secretly glanced at Zhu Jing's expression with great winks.

Zhu Jing looked serious, nodded slightly and said:
"Get up and talk."

The old bustard hurriedly stood up, stepped back to one side, and murmured:
"Master Hou has a noble status, so it stands to reason that you shouldn't be turned away, but you also know that today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the girls have been busy for a year, so I can't be too harsh, I have to give them a break. Day off."

"What nonsense are you talking about? My Lord Hou came here just to find someone to ask a few questions. Who said he came here to find flowers and ask willows?"

Hearing the words, the young servant at the side immediately shouted.

"Oh, it's really a crime. I don't know... I don't know, but I ask Lord Hou to make amends!"

Hearing this, the old bustard hurriedly knelt down again, trembling all over.

"Little Douzi, don't be rude!"

Zhu Jing didn't stop until now.

"Don't be afraid. I'm just here to ask Miss Hanyu a few words, and I'll leave after the questioning. I won't delay your New Year's Eve. So, can you let me meet Miss Hanyu?"

Zhu Jing slowed down his tone and said to the bustard.

"Well, since that's the case, let the woman go back and ask Miss Hanyu what she means..."

"it is good."

Before the bustard finished speaking, Zhu Jing readily agreed.

"Then... Hou Ye, wait a moment!"

After hearing the words, the old bustard hurriedly finished speaking, turned around and ran away, fearing that if she took a step too late, she would bring herself a fatal disaster, so she quickly entered the room and disappeared from Zhu Jing's sight.

"Marquis of Jinyang?"

Not long after, Han Yu's panicked voice came from Han Yu's house.At this time, she was dressing up, and when she heard this, she stood up from the chair with a "squeak".

"Miss, isn't Marquis of Jinyang the father of Mr. Zhu? What is he looking for you for?"

Behind him, the servant girl was even more panicked than Han Yu, and asked.

When she asked, Hanyu didn't seem to be nervous anymore, she gave a wry smile, took another two steps to the side, and said just now:

"What should come, will come sooner or later. Instead of avoiding it, it is better to fight it. Even if I die, at least I, Han Yu, will die well!"

After finishing speaking, her complexion sank, and she said to the old bustard:
"Mom, please take Jinyanghou to the living room, where Hanyu is waiting for Lord Jinyanghou."

"Han Yu! Listen to what you said, he is Mr. Zhu's father? So, he came today, is he not a good person?"

Hearing this, the old bustard couldn't help but also worried for Han Yu.

"Mom, don't worry too much. This matter is Han Yu's own business. Please believe that Han Yu can handle this matter by herself. Don't worry, mother!"

After finishing speaking, Han Yu went to the living room.

The bustard still looked worried, but she had no choice but to go to the door.

"Master Hou, Miss Hanyu welcomes you!"

When they arrived at the door, the old bustard said to Zhu Jing with a flattering smile on his face. After speaking, he led the way in front of him, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at Zhu Jing's face...

Seeing that his face remained expressionless, and he couldn't guess what he was thinking, he couldn't help being a little anxious.

Originally, this brothel was only opened by the crown prince Nangongxi to collect information, and the girl Hanyu was not originally a party member, but for the sake of the crown prince, she was obliged to play this role. Now, seeing, she Maybe he was about to be humiliated, how could the madam not be in a hurry?

However, no matter how long it takes, the living room is still coming. The old bustard stood outside the door of the living room, smiling brightly and saying:
"Master Hou, please come in! Miss Hanyu is already waiting for you inside!"

"Ah."

Zhu Jing hummed through his nose, raised his leg and walked in.The old bustard didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly ran to the yard, muttered to a black-clothed man outside the bamboo house, and then hurried back and hid outside the window to eavesdrop.

Besides, when Zhu Jing entered the door, he saw a woman in purple standing in front of the window at a glance. Hearing the sound, she turned her head.

Immediately, it crashed into Zhu Jing's pupils, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the woman, only to see that she was wearing a purple smoky dress, with a delicate face, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and the gaze in her eyes revealed a Resolute and desolate, like a plum blossom blooming outside the window, she is slender and slender, she only moves when she is still, her temperament is outstanding, not only does she not have the makeup of a prostitute, but she has an otherworldly charm, like a fairy descending to earth , the worst, but also comparable, all the ladies he has seen, women of ordinary background, will never have such a refined temperament.

"Ugh!"

Zhu Jing sighed slightly, he was sighing because of this woman's life experience, if not for her identity, he thought, he would not have refused her to become the young wife of the Hou's mansion.It's just a pity!

"Hanyu has seen Lord Hou!"

At this time, Han Yu walked over slowly, bowed in front of Zhu Jing, and said.

"Miss Hanyu is free!"

Zhu Jing's tone was very kind, without any hint of discrimination.

Han Yu straightened up, walked to the table, filled a cup of tea herself, and said to Zhu Jing:
"Master Hou, please drink tea."

As he spoke, he served the tea with both hands.

Zhu Jing reached out to take it, but he didn't drink it, and put it down on the table.

"Oh, my lord, please sit down!"

Seeing this, Han Yu hurriedly said again.

Zhu Jing took his seat, and just now he looked at the living room. He saw a small room with a gauze curtain in the middle. Behind the gauze curtain was a lyre, and a faint fragrance was wafting from the incense burner in the room. , It is refreshing after smelling it.
