Among the small islands in the middle of the lake, the breeze blows slowly, the green clouds move around, and here and there, you can catch a glimpse of talented people and beauties.
In a corridor rockery next to the lake, there was also a group of people sitting together, talking and laughing with each other, and chatting happily with each other.
These are all wives from various houses, including the Zhu family, the wife of the British Duke Zhang Mao, the Wu family, the wife of the Dingguo Duke Xu Yongning, and the Wang family, the wife of the Chengguo Duke Zhu Fu.
The three of them are the eldest and the core of the crowd. Each of them is a wife with the imperial title. They are wearing gold and jade, a phoenix and a cloud crown, and are extremely noble.
Next to the three of them were sitting Zhang Lun, Zhang Ying's mother Li, Xu Waner's mother Yang, Li Zhen's mother Shen, plus some other wives, etc., more than a dozen people were sitting there.
Together, with their respective maids and so on beside them, they were chatting happily while looking at the small island in the middle of the lake.
"Who is that young man?"
Madame Wu of Duke Dingguo looked at Liu Jin on the island in the middle of the lake, smiled and said to the people next to her.
"I don't know. I've never seen him before. It seems like he must be the young master of that house."
Mrs. Wang, the Duke of Chengguo, said with a smile, then took a telescope from the hand of the maid next to her and looked at it carefully and said, "You are really good-looking."
Hearing Wang's words, other people around them also picked up their telescopes and looked towards the island in the middle of the lake. These ladies from the palace have always been idle, and it is almost their nature to like gossip. They are watching from the sidelines.
Always use a telescope.
"He's a pretty handsome young man, but I don't know who he is from."
The British princess Zhu also said with a smile.
While the three of them were chatting, the clever maid hurriedly ran to the island in the middle of the lake to recruit people for information, and she came back soon.
"I just found out, it's Mr. Liu Jin, Mr. Liu."
"Master Liu Jin Liu?"
"Is that Liu Jin who made a name for himself on Wangyue Tower?"
Mrs. Cheng Guogong's wife Wu thought for a while and said.
"It turns out it's him. I've heard Lao Zhang talk about him a long time ago, saying that he is a son of an elite and has extraordinary demeanor. When I saw him today, he really lived up to his reputation."
When the British princess Zhu heard this, she smiled and said.
"I heard that he is still a scholar. I think he is only nineteen this year. He will take the Qiuwei imperial examination soon. If he can get into high school in one fell swoop, he might even be able to get a title on the gold list next year."
Zhang Lun and Zhang Ying’s mother Li also laughed.
"Find someone to inquire and find out what these young people are playing."
Duke Dingguo's wife, Mrs. Wu, smiled and ordered the maids beside her. Soon, several maids hurried to the island in the middle of the lake, constantly walking back and forth, and reporting the activities on the island in the middle of the lake in real time.
"This pairing made by Li Zhen is really difficult. She is worthy of being the granddaughter of Li Shilang. This scholarly family is different."
The British princess Zhu smiled and said to Li Zhen's mother Shen who was standing next to her.
"Yes, yes, this first couplet is absolutely eternal. I guess this Liu Jin may not be able to do it right."
"This couplet cannot be right without a flash of inspiration. This Liu Jin probably cannot be right."
The ladies heard the couplet Li Zhen proposed to Liu Jin. They thought about it carefully one by one, but they couldn't think of a good couplet. Naturally, these ladies of wealthy families are not women from ordinary families. They are basically all women.
Comes from a famous family.
For example, Zhu, the wife of the British Duke Zhang Mao, was born in the Chengguo Duke's palace and was the sister of the Chengguo Duke Zhu Fu. The Dingguo Duke's wife, the Wu family, was also a well-known lady. Her father once served as an official minister, as was the Chengguo Duke's wife Wang.
The daughter of a marquis.
Wealthy families are intertwined with each other by marriage, and there is no way to become the real wives of these rich and noble families without a certain identity and background.
Because they come from wealthy families, all of these people have received strict education since childhood. Not to mention being extremely knowledgeable or rich in knowledge, at least all of them have been taught by famous teachers and are still at a certain level.
Everyone knows that the first couplet produced by Li Zhen is really difficult and difficult to come up with.
"My child is usually spoiled by her grandfather. This couplet is not from her at all, but a couple that his grandfather has been thinking about hard."
Li Zhen's mother Shen smiled and shook her head, and slowly told the origin of this couplet.
After speaking, she also said: "This kid is really fooling around. Isn't it embarrassing to use such eternal absolutes to test people?"
"Maybe this Liu Jin can handle it."
"Yes, maybe we can confront him. After all, he is a disciple of an expert."
"This Liu Jin is still a very capable young man in other aspects, but this match is indeed too difficult. I don't know how many literati have been to Wangjiang Tower, but none of them have been able to match him. He has to do it in a short time.
It’s not easy to come out.”
Everyone said with a smile.
However, soon another maid hurriedly came over and reported the latest situation. Liu Jin actually found the pair.
"Amazing. As expected of a disciple of an expert, he can actually fight against me."
"Yinyue Well, Yinyue Shadow, Yinyue Well Yinyue Yinying, Yinyue Well for ten thousand years, Yue Yingyin for ten thousand years, it is absolutely eternal~"
"The children of great men are worthy of their reputation and have real talents and learning."
After everyone heard Liu Jin's second line, they couldn't help but praise each and every one of them. For ladies like them, watching young people play games is also a good pleasure.
"Liu Jin has given a question to Miss Li Zhen. There is no need to worry about the green water, but her face is wrinkled by the wind~"
Just as everyone here finished sighing, another maid hurriedly came over and told Liu Jin the first couplet.
"There is no need to worry about green water, but the wind wrinkles the face. This couplet is very suitable for the occasion~"
The British princess Zhu looked at the slightly rippling lake surface and said with a smile.
"It's not difficult. Li Zhen should be able to deal with it."
Mrs. Wang, the duchess of Chengguo, thought for a while and said.
"I don't think so. Use your binoculars and take a look. Li Zhen's face is red, and her eyes look at Liu Jin from time to time. Could it be that she has fallen in love with Liu Jin?"
Zhang Lun and Zhang Ying's mother, Li, looked at the island in the middle of the lake with a telescope, and suddenly they seemed to have made some new discoveries, and they said in surprise.
"this?"
When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested. They all quickly took telescopes and observed carefully. They saw Li Zhen's face flushed and lowering her head slightly on the island in the middle of the lake. She seemed to be thinking about the second line, but her eyes were still open.
This scene of Guang looking at Liu Jin from time to time was really seen by everyone.
"It seems to be true."
Xu Waner's mother Yang couldn't help but said.
"Everyone was joking. Li Zhen must not be a match for her, so she feels ashamed."
Li Zhen's mother Shen smiled and said, but she was careful and found an unusual smell in it. Then she looked at Xu Waner next to her and said: "You see Xu Waner's face is also red, and the corner of her eye is also bright.
I’m looking at this Liu Jin.”
"I would say that Liu Jin is quite good-looking, and he is also a capable and capable person. If this Qiuwei gets into high school in one fell swoop and gets listed on the gold medal list next year, he will be worthy of Li Zhen or Xu Waner."
The British princess Zhu thought for a while and said with a smile.
"Isn't that right? You see, when they stand together, they really have the feeling of a golden boy and a beautiful girl. They are a perfect match."
Princess Chengguo's wife, Mrs. Wang, also smiled and gossiped.
After hearing what Zhu and Wang said, everyone kept looking through telescopes. They looked at Liu Jin carefully, and then at Li Zhen and Xu Waner, and they immediately felt that they seemed to be a good match.
"Mrs. Wu, this Wan'er is already seventeen this year. It's time to find a good family to marry. This is a man who is ready to marry and a woman who is ready to marry. You might as well consider it. Consider it."
The British princess Zhu was naturally told and explained by Zhang Mao beforehand, so now that she had the opportunity, she quickly became a matchmaker. After speaking, she also said to Li Zhen's mother Shen: "Mrs. Shen, Li Zhen seems to be sixteen too.
Well, it's a good time to get married when you're twenty-eight, and I think this Liu Jin is very good."
After hearing Zhu's words, Duke Dingguo's wife Wu, Xu Waner's mother Yang, and Li Zhen's mother Shen couldn't help but stare at Liu Jin carefully again.
"He is good-looking and talented. That's where he comes from~"
Li Zhen's mother Shen looked at Liu Jin carefully with a telescope for a while and then said.
"This Liu Jin is from a poorer background, but as long as he is in Qiuwei High School and gets listed on the gold medal list next year, he will be worthy. What's more, this Liu Jin is very close to His Highness the Crown Prince now, and he is a powerful man.
I love you so much, and your future success is just around the corner.”
The British princess Zhu said with a smile that she was quite qualified as a matchmaker.
Zhang Mao is a very smart person. He knows how to negotiate with matchmakers and mobilizes his wife to help. He is worthy of Liu Jin and has spent a lot of thought on Liu Jin's life events.
After hearing Zhu's words, she nodded slightly after thinking about it. Liu Jin is now a household name, especially those from wealthy families. They have made a lot of money following Liu Jin, and they know all kinds of things about Liu Jin.
, and also knew that Liu Jin and the prince were very close.
Being very close to the prince, and being loved by the prince, the future is limitless.
