Zhou Jun saw that he couldn't hide away, so he could only say hello with his hands raised.
Yin Yu saw Hua Yue next to Zhou Jun. He was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "When did Zhou Lang return to Chang'an?"
Zhou Jun: "Just these few days... someone came uninvited, but did he disturb Mr. Yin?"
Yin Yu tilted her head and thought for a while, then said to Zhou Jun: "Just wait here and don't leave."
After saying that, Yin Yu entered the room.
After a while, Yin Yu walked out of the door again, smiled and said to Zhou Jun: "I have discussed it with the nobles in the room, you can come in."
Zhou Jun deliberately refused, but seeing Yin Yu insisting, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk in.
Incense was burning in the private room, and a gauze curtain was temporarily pulled up in the room.
Zhou Jun looked behind the curtain and could vaguely see a stunning woman sitting upright. Everything in front of him suddenly gave him a familiar feeling.
The stunning woman saw Zhou Jun and said, "Young Master Zhou."
Hearing this melodious female voice, Zhou Jun immediately recalled the encounter in Luoyang Villa and bowed his hands.
A waiter brought the case and put the tableware on it.
Zhou Jun and Hua Yue took their seats respectively.
When Yin Yu went behind the curtain, Yang Yuhuan saw Huayue sitting next to Zhou Jun, and asked in a low voice: "Who is the little girl from Waifan next to Zhou Jun?"
Yin Yu replied: "She is his maid."
Yang Yuhuan glanced at Huayue one more time, but didn't ask any further questions.
As soon as Yin Yugang sat down, he asked Zhou Jun impatiently: "Why did you leave so suddenly when you went to Liangzhou? Didn't you even say hello?"
This question was asked in a helpless manner, Zhou Jun could only say: "The Liangzhou ministry cannot be delayed, so I left in a hurry."
Yin Yu wanted to ask again, but Yang Yuhuan stopped her and said to Zhou Jun: "I came here more than ten years ago. At that time, Bachuan was still desolate, but now it has become a climate, and Zhou Erlang is indispensable.
"
Zhou Jun said: "I dare to teach you, noble man, that I just came up with an idea for this Bachuan market, and the maid next to me is responsible for the specific arrangements."
When Yang Yuhuan heard this, he was slightly surprised. Then he looked at Hua Yue beside Zhou Jun and asked, "Where are you from? And how did you become Zhou Jun's maid?"
Huayue said: "I am a big cannibal, Erlang rescued me from Zhongshi."
Yang Yuhuan heard the word "rescue" in Hua Yue's mouth, and realized that there might be some story in it, so he asked the latter to tell it in detail.
Huayue picked out some key points of everything that happened in Zhongshi that year and told them.
Yang Yuhuan and Yin Yu sighed after hearing this.
After sighing, Yang Yuhuan asked Huayue again: "You are young and you are the daughter of a family. How can you handle such heavy affairs?"
Hua Yue: "When the Bachuan Market was not yet built, the affairs were complicated and I had no clue. At first I had difficulties and was timid. Later I thought, as a daughter, I have been despised by others. If I continue to shrink back, I will not be able to do anything.
In the past, if I didn’t make some achievements, I was afraid I would be looked down upon even more. So, when I didn’t understand something, I would find someone to ask, and when I didn’t know something, I would learn it myself, and I gradually became good at it.”
Yang Yuhuan didn't recover for a long time after hearing this, and finally sighed.
Yin Yu looked at Zhou Jun. Hearing that the topic was getting further and further away, he felt anxious and tugged on Yang Yuhuan's sleeve.
The latter nodded slightly and asked Zhou Jun: "Zhou Zhoulang is not young yet, does he have an engagement?"
Zhou Jun: "Not yet."
Yang Yuhuan glanced at the painted moon and asked with a smile: "Is it because there are so many beautiful maids in Lang's house on Tuesday that he has no intention of marrying?"
Zhou Jun was a little embarrassed: "There are only two maids around me. One is Xiao Qingchan who was given by the palace. She is currently at home in Chang'an, and the other is Hua Yue."
Yang Yuhuan was a little surprised when he heard this.
Yin Yu on the side was impatient and couldn't help but ask: "Then what kind of woman do you plan to marry?"
Hearing this, Zhou Jun glanced at the curtains, and then remembered the military guards and chamberlains he saw in the corridor just now. He made a conclusion in his mind about Yin Yu's identity, and said: "Jun was originally a slave Yalang, and he knew that he was of low origin.
I don’t seek to be a high-ranking person, I just hope to find a woman who shares my mind, is kind and gentle, and can stay with me for the rest of my life.”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Yuhuan, Yin Yu and Hua Yue were all stunned on the spot.
The next lunch was a dull one for everyone in the room.
After the meal, Zhou Jun took Hua Yue and left, while Yin Yu sat behind the curtain and asked Yang Yuhuan: "Madam, what did he mean by those words?"
Yang Yuhuan saw Yin Yu worrying about gains and losses. Although he couldn't bear it, he still said cruelly: "Zhou Zhoulang may have guessed your identity... He revealed his origins and said he didn't want to cling to you. In fact, it was an implicit rejection."
Yin Yu clenched her teeth.
Yang Yuhuan sighed slightly and comforted Yin Yu: "You are right about one thing."
Yin Yu looked at Yang Yuhuan.
The latter said: "I once heard that Zhou Jun acted ridiculously and was a dandy when he was young. But you kept saying good things about him. I thought it was because you were not deeply involved in the world and believed his rhetoric. Now when I look at it again,
But I was wrong."
Yin Yu wiped her eyes with her sleeve.
Yang Yuhuan said: "That Zhou Lang is handsome, kind, honest, and warm-hearted, but he is a rare and humble gentleman. If he had been of a better background, he would definitely be a good match for you, but it's a pity..."
Yin Yu shook her head vigorously and burst into tears: "I never care about my origin!"
Yang Yuhuan was a little annoyed when he saw Yin Yu's stubbornness, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Zhoulang knows the basics. Those words are not so much self-deprecating, but they are actually for your own good!"
Yin Yu stood up suddenly and walked out of the room without looking back.
Yang Yuhuan stroked his forehead, called the servants and said, "Send some people to follow and protect Princess Wanchun. Don't let anything go wrong."
Zhou Jun and Hua Yue walked along Fang Street towards the direction of Bachuan Villa.
On the way, Huayue looked at Zhou Jun and said casually, "The young master named Yin seems to care about Erlang very much."
Zhou Jun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "That Yin Yu is actually a woman and a member of the royal family. There are probably many eager young men around her on weekdays. They are used to listening to pleasant words. Occasionally, when they meet a stranger, they will have a dispute.
She is very competitive. In the final analysis, what she cares about has nothing to do with the relationship between a man and a woman, it is just about gains and losses."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Hua Yue heard this, she felt that it made sense, but she felt a little helpless for Yin Yu in her heart.
Zhou Jun had some words that were hidden in his heart and he did not say them to Hua Yueming.
Judging from the clues on hand, Yin Yu is most likely a princess of the Tang Dynasty. Let’s not talk about the common problems of Princesses of the Tang Dynasty for the time being. If she really gets entangled with her and becomes a consort, then according to the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty,
Due to the system, Zhou Jun could not be appointed as an official outside the country, and could only hold a false position in Chang'an City, such as Hanlin bachelor's degree.
For Zhou Jun, this is equivalent to locking the scope of activities in Chang'an City, making it inconvenient for future development.
Therefore, due to emotions and reasons, Zhou Jun could only keep his distance from Yin Yu.
The two entered the gate of Bieyuan and walked towards their small courtyard, but saw a large group of people gathered at the gate of the garden.
Zhou Jun felt suspicious and walked over with Hua Yue.
Parting from the crowd of onlookers, Zhou Jun looked inward along the middle street and saw Yin Darong, dressed in a woman's costume, singing a opera by the lakeside pavilion in Zhongyuan.
There are old servants in the Yin Mansion who are trying to persuade and persuade.
Zhou Jun was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he froze in place.
When he came to his senses, he was about to move forward, but his arm was held by Huayue beside him.
Huayue lowered her voice and said to Zhou Jun: "Erlang, please don't go there. Mr. Yin is suffering from hysteria and he will be cured after a while."
Zhou Jun: "Hysteria?"
Hua Yue: "When Yin Gong was ill, he would wear women's costumes and sing operas in the courtyard, and no one else could stop him. After a while, when he woke up, he could not remember anything.
"
Zhou Jun: "How could this happen? What did the doctor say?"
Huayue: "Several doctors came, but they couldn't find anything wrong. They just said it was an old disease."
Hearing this, Zhou Jun also recalled that when Pang Gong introduced Yin Darong, he once said: When Yin Darong was in the palace, he served Zhang Meiren. The Zhang Meiren named Qiniang, because of her delay,
Not being able to see the saint, he was exhausted mentally and finally passed away.
On the day Zhang Qiniang passed away, Yin Darong was just like today, put on a woman's costume, sang a big song on the long street of the palace garden, and was finally thrown into the palace prison by the patrol.
