Zhang Shou didn't know, and didn't want to know, whether that shrill cry was the voice of the deposed empress or concubine. And Miss Zhu had exactly the same thought. Her heart had always been biased, except for her relatives and friends.
Perhaps the poor, sick and weak people she saw when she went out could arouse some sympathy in her, but when she sympathized with those enemies who were once hostile to her, she was not so philanthropic.
Therefore, after holding hands and walking out of the Xuanwu Gate, the two of them exhaled in the cold night sky at the same time. Ah Liu, who had been following silently from a distance, coughed lightly at this time: "Young Master will send you off first.
Will the eldest lady go home?"
Isn't that nonsense? Zhang Shou gave Ah Liu an annoyed look, but his attitude moved Zhu Ying more than his words. She laughed happily, and then went straight to Zhang Shou without saying anything.
That carriage. With such a natural attitude, Zhu Hong, who was guarding his carriage, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Fortunately, the wedding of the two of them is not far away. Otherwise, if they continue to see each other and get along so frequently, I really don’t know what will happen!
Zhu Ying got on the bus, and so did Zhang Shou. Ah Liu, who usually rode with Zhang Shou, would not continue to get in the bus and get in the way. However, he did not ride a horse when he went out these two days, but he was too lazy to ask Rui Qiying's
The man went to borrow his mount, looked around and walked straight towards the Zhu family's car. Nodding to Zhu Hong, he got directly into the carriage. When Zhu Hong wanted to stop him, he was too late.
When Ah Liuyi got in the car, he discovered that the interior of the car was luxuriously and elegantly decorated. The seats were covered with a layer of brocade cushions, and the walls of the carriage were covered with thick cotton blankets, obviously to keep out the cold. Even the copper hand stove and foot stove were
There is a place within reach of the person sitting on the seat. There is a thin wooden cardboard box on the shelf, a teapot, a tea cup, a towel, a wash basin... In short, this is very similar to a girl's boudoir.
However, there was no one else in the carriage that should have room for at least two girls to accompany them. Obviously, Zhu Ying was used to having her way most of the time, and even the girls couldn't keep up with her, so she simply didn't take her with her.
People.
After seeing the scene in the car clearly, the young man could get off the car as quickly as he got in. But when he was down to earth, he even blushed slightly, and then pretended not to see the eyes of Zhu Hong and others.
He walked straight to his carriage, coughed and said seriously: "Master, Miss, do you want to change to another carriage?"
"This car is too cold at night. The eldest lady's car should be more comfortable."
Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, then grabbed Zhang Shou's hand and shook it. She found that it was indeed a bit cold, so she dragged Zhang Shou out of the car without saying a word. After getting off the car, she did not forget to smile at the young man beside her.
He smiled: "Ah Liu, you are smarter. My car has a hand stove and a foot stove. It is the warmest!"
Zhu Hong watched with dumbfounded eyes as Zhu Ying pulled Zhang Shou back to get into the car. He also saw A Liu watching the couple get into the car. He pressed his chest and let out a long sigh. He finally laughed out loud. He actually did it.
Is it possible to do this? I really can’t see that that young man who seems to be a bit dull is still full of ideas when he suddenly becomes wise!
He glanced at the other guards and warned them with warning eyes not to reveal the scene just now. In the end, they all got crazy nods. How big of a deal, they are not crazy, who would offend that sparring madman?
Even the eldest son has been challenged more than once, and I heard that there are winners and losers - of course the winner is the eldest son who is best at riding, archery and equestrian skills. As for the loser... it is said that he lost when he captured the eldest son with his bare hands.
He lost in Bu Gong, and the eldest son was tied with the others in swordsmanship. There was nothing he could do about it. Ah Liu's swordsmanship was too weird. Let alone the light skill, the eldest son was completely defeated.
The eldest son, who has always been pampered and pampered, cannot compete with a young man who often flies over the walls!
The many guards are not as sophisticated as Zhu Tingfang, and they cannot be like Zhu Tingfang. They have been taught by the best teachers in the world every day since they were young. Therefore, except for Zhu Hong who is slightly better than Ah Liu in swordsmanship and riding skills,
, the rest were almost completely defeated.
The most common experience for most of the guards is to be pinned to the ground by Ah Liu to try to score points. However, Ah Liu is still the teacher in name of the Second Young Master. If nothing happens, he will think of training the Second Young Master and learn from them by the way. They will even refuse.
Less than.
Therefore, everyone has made up their minds at this moment to completely forget about Ah Liu sneaking into their eldest lady's carriage... Anyway, that kid must have just been stubborn and didn't think too much about it, but after discovering that something was wrong,
, didn’t you make up for it immediately? It’s not a big deal!
When Zhang Shou sat in Zhu Ying's carriage, which was filled with the atmosphere of a boudoir daughter, and sent people to the gate of Zhao Guogong's mansion, he was about to lean out and get out of the car, but who knew that Zhu Ying grabbed his wrist.
He turned around and glanced at the eldest lady with some confusion. As a result, he saw Zhu Ying approaching him, but she exhaled and asked: "Did you not eat enough in Qingning Palace before?"
Zhang Shou was slightly startled, and then his stomach gave a reply earlier than him, but it growled. Well, there was no need to answer. He had to laugh, but Zhu Ying rolled his eyes: "You
Didn't you see that I was not polite at all when I feasted on you? Why are you so reluctant to let go? I think you are quite bold in front of the emperor!"
"Usually is normal, but this time is this time. I always have to think about whether the Queen Mother really called me there just to let me have this meal at her place? And with such a light taste, I, a person with heavy taste,
I really don’t have much appetite!”
Zhu Ying was quite satisfied with this quite honest answer. She let go of Zhang Shou's hand and then hummed softly: "Although I want to keep you for a midnight snack before going back, I think Aunt Wu is probably worried."
What about you! Come back quickly, you are so busy, you have to get up early tomorrow. By the way, you can go to Ciqing Palace once in three days. The emperor probably forgot to mention it because he was so angry. "
At this point, she smiled at Zhang Shou and said: "This month, my eldest brother is getting married, the girls' school is enrolling students, and we are also getting married. For the sake of the prince's studies, I can't give you much leave, so your reasonable request, of course, the emperor will
I have to agree!"
Faced with this good news, Zhang Shou was certainly relieved. It is very likely that he would not be able to take a few days of wedding leave after getting married. This situation is really discouraging. After all, kings do not go to court early when they are passionate! But the problem is that he did not let go
A ten-day holiday is relaxing and relaxing, but students have to herd sheep for ten days... Although they can assign a large number of exercises, it is too inhumane after all.
After all, his two classes, the Third Prince and the East Palace Attendants, had enough pure exercise classes... So, he and Zhu Ying could only be wronged.
Thinking of this, Zhang Shou suddenly lowered the car curtain, turned around and hugged the girl in front of him who had never complained about anything since the first time they met. She could always shine brightly in the face of adversity and bring a good mood to herself and others.
After letting go of his hand, he smiled at the eldest lady who was a little confused but also a little happy.
"It's late, go to bed early. Girls can go to bed early and have beautiful skin all their lives!"
Seeing that Zhang Shou quickly opened the car curtain and jumped out of the car after saying this, Zhu Ying asked him what will happen when I get old, but before she could say it, the car curtain opened again.
Zhang Shou pulled him away.
"You don't have to worry about the future. The most beautiful thing is the red sunset, which is warm and calm. The happiest thing in the world is to grow old slowly with you."
Thinking about Zhang Shou's two words, Zhu Ying lowered her head thoughtfully and walked all the way to Qing'an Hall. Then Zhu Ying smiled. As a girl, the happiest thing is of course that her husband is as elegant as a bamboo and has a high talent.
Badou, but other than that, he even spoke so nicely, she just felt like her whole body could fly with joy.
As usual, when she came back at this time, she didn't have to see her elders. She could just send someone to deliver a message after she returned to her room. But she knew that she was the apple of her family's eye, so she was willing to make a special trip to her grandmother. But this time
, she was so excited that as soon as she entered the room, she found that it was completely packed.
Grandma, parents, eldest brother, and second brother, the atmosphere of the three-chamber trial was so complete that she couldn't help but mutter: "I didn't do anything today? I just stayed in Qingning Palace until now!"
"Yeah, I didn't do anything. I stayed in Qingning Palace until my brother-in-law was invited by the Queen Mother who couldn't stand it, and then he sent you back." The broken-hearted Zhu Er directly said what the others wanted to say.
Then he stood up with a yawn and said, "We are all getting married. What do you have to ask... Oops."
Thinking that this scene was so funny, he tripped over and saw that the person who threw him onto the chair was the elder brother he could never offend. He immediately lowered his head honestly, and then listened to Zhu Tingfang directly ask
: "What did Zhang Shou say?"
"What do you mean?" Zhu Ying widened her eyes slightly, "He didn't say anything in Qingning Palace. The emperor came over later, but he just had an ordinary meal, and the Queen Mother asked Ashou
Send me back!"
She cunningly omitted what Zhang Shou said to her, until she saw her grandmother and mother looking at her with disdain like a girl's foreign minister, she stuck out her tongue and put away her understatement of naughtiness.
"It's not a big deal to begin with. Grandma, father, mother, eldest brother, and second brother, don't worry. Ah Shou has already handled it properly, and the fourth prince has also admitted his mistake."
Even the closest elder, Zhu Ying would not say what Zhang Shou said to the fourth prince, and her obviously happy mood, coupled with the relaxed steps when she came in, fully showed that
There was indeed nothing unexpected going on during this trip to the palace.
So, Zhu Tingfang breathed a sigh of relief, nodded calmly and said: "It's okay. I followed Qin Guogong and also wrote a letter to apologize. Those ruffians almost had their legs broken, so they went back to parade in the streets.
This case is settled."
Zhu Jing had no objection to the eldest son's statement. As for blaming the fourth prince for getting into trouble, he would certainly not be able to say that. Therefore, having come back early today, he stood up and walked to where he had pampered the fourth prince and even scolded him.
In front of his daughter, who had not cursed a word, he touched her cheek, which was blown cold by the cold wind.
These days, most fathers in official families will turn into strict fathers like wooden figures, let alone touch. When their daughters grow up, they will even keep a certain safe distance, but Zhu Jing does not. Even Zhu Ying's life experience
There are still things that are unclear, but that doesn't stop him from treating her as his most precious daughter.
"Go back to bed early. You are not interested in things like tea parties, flower viewing, and poetry clubs that girls like to make friends with. It's okay to lead a group of people through the city all day long. Don't do things you don't like just to make people like you.
"
Hearing this very obvious statement, Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but said angrily: "Dad, what do you mean by things I don't like? What I do now are all things I like! I didn't want to be with Zheng Mingyue before.
I want to fight for it because I am not a talented woman who has read poetry and books, and I have no interest in running such a large academy. But then I thought about it, couldn't I do something else?"
"Ah Shou also said that women's self-defense is a very useful thing! What's more, if I hadn't asked, wouldn't those girls who had to go through the experience of choosing a prince's concubine have to be alone for the rest of their lives unjustly? Although I said
I couldn’t help Zhang Chen matchmaking, but two girls have already been betrothed, and they will get married early next year!”
Seeing Zhu Jing being squeezed by Zhu Ying, Jiuniang couldn't help but laugh out loud. She didn't even look at her husband, but said with a smile: "Yingying, your father sees that you are busy with things all day long.
, you enjoy it, so if you feel unhappy, just ignore him!"
Being squeezed by his daughter and teased by his wife, Zhu Jing's face suddenly turned dark. However, after all, she was the most important woman in his life. He could only cough dryly and said: "Yingying, since you enjoy it, dad is very happy.
But don’t ignore your health just because of these things. Well, it’s late at night, so you should go to bed early.”
Seeing Zhu Jing walking out quickly as if he was running away, Jiuniang couldn't help shouting: "Hey, as a father, don't treat one with favoritism! Dalang's wedding is coming soon, and he has just submitted a memorial to plead guilty. What if this happens?
The punishment is very severe, wouldn’t it affect his marriage?”
Zhu Tingfang was about to speak, but Zhu Er, who was pretending to be mute at the side, finally couldn't help it anymore: "Old Hong stubbornly blames others for the things he caused. His brother-in-law gave him his bodyguard, who asked him to drive people away by himself?
! Deal with it how you should, it’s over, no matter whether it’s the eldest brother or the Duke of Qin, the emperor will definitely pick it up high and put it down gently, and the fourth prince will only be reprimanded at most. "
"You just walk through the market without a guard and get smashed. Where can this kind of thing happen? The white dragon fish suit is played by fish and shrimps, let alone an old yellow croaker like him?"
The three words "old yellow croaker" successfully amused Zhu Ying, and Zhu Jing turned around and glared at Zhu Er in anger, but the second son, who had always been useless, saw it so accurately this time. After thinking about it, he got it.
He swallowed the blame in his mouth. Zhu Tingfang stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Er's collar expressionlessly, dragged him up and walked out. Seeing this, Zhu Jing smiled and followed him.
As for whether she wanted to play doubles or something, Zhu Ying looked at it and decided to look back. She flew to her grandmother and mother like a butterfly, and recited Zhang Shou's words when he sent her to the door with joy. The next moment, she
As expected, Mrs. Tai and Jiuniang relaxed their brows. As they grew older, they also liked to hear good words, but what kind words were more touching than Zhang Shou's words?
