Chapter 1 Seventy Whose ancestors have not been rich

"What's wrong, what's wrong with the name?"

Seeing Zhu Yan's expression stunned, Lu Bei couldn't help becoming curious. In terms of seniority, Zhu Qilan is really a grandma at the grandma level.

"There's nothing wrong with the name, it's just..."

Zhu Yan frowned, thinking: "I don't have any impression, and I seem to have heard of this name somewhere, why don't I go to the market first, I might remember it after I walk around for a while."

Lu Bei was embarrassed when he heard this, and replaced it with another woman. The subtext of this statement was not to give bags or have sex, and replaced it with Zhu Yan. He roughly understood why he would be careless if he gave birth to a daughter like a big cousin. The lungs have no heart.

The carriage stopped at the intersection of the market, Zhu Yan dragged Lu Bei out of the car, raised his arm and walked through the shops along the street one by one.

No.70 eight shops.

Lu Bei moved numbly at the door of the shop, secretly thinking that she is indeed a married woman, with plenty of physical strength and energy, and her combat effectiveness alone surpassed that of She Yan and five little foxes.

It was a wise move for the eldest cousin to get up early in the morning and go straight to the barracks.

"Oh, I remembered!"

Zhu Yan exclaimed, and raised her hand to beckon to Lu Bei. Seeing that his expressionless face looked like his own dead ghost, she covered her mouth and smiled secretly, and quickly stepped forward and dragged him into the shop.

"Xiao Bei, I remembered who Zhu Qilan was."

Can you remember it?

Lu Bei's brain hurt, he gave up, and was going to go back to Xuanyin Division to check Zhu Qilan's details.

Zhu Yan looked around, and said in a low voice: "Zhu Qilan is His Majesty's sister, the eldest princess, with the title Chang Ming."

After finishing speaking, she complained again: "I'm just surprised, I seem to have heard the name Zhu Qilan before, but I don't have any impression. It's fine to say that the title is not right. I can't remember the name directly."

"Princess?!"

Lu Bei's eyes widened when he heard this, and he gasped and said, "Senior Sister, are you confused about shopping, let's go, let's stop shopping, and go home now."

It wasn't that he didn't believe it, but that he rejected the answer from the bottom of his heart. It was not a pleasant meeting with Zhu Qilan for the first time.

It was so dangerous that I almost killed the emperor's own sister.

Lu Bei wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Fortunately, Zhu Qilan's life was tough enough to prevent him from succeeding. Otherwise, his loyal and patriotic excellent personality would collapse on the spot, and he would bid farewell to the easy life.

"Why are you shouting so loudly!"

Zhu Yan raised her hand and twisted Lu Bei's arm, and said in a low voice, "Members of the royal family have a noble status, and you can't talk about right and wrong. What should you do if someone overhears you?"

"What are you afraid of, my senior sister is also surnamed Zhu."

"It's different, my Zhu is worthless, otherwise, could your cousin trick me into the house with a few words?"

Oh, it's not certain who is lying to whom!

Lu Bei complained in his heart, seriously suspecting that his eldest cousin lost his virginity after drinking. Seeing his belly getting bigger and bigger, he had no choice but to marry his son.

"Hey, what does your disdain mean?"

"I despise my big cousin's rhetoric."

"continue."

"..."

Lu Bei rolled his eyes and said in a low voice, "Senior Sister, I'm serious about the Eldest Princess. If you think about it again, it might be that you remember someone else."

"how is this possible."

Zhu Yan raised her hand and snapped her fingers, and counted: "Xiu Fa respects training, Bang Qi Shi Sheng, there is only one Lan in the 'Qi' generation, she is the eldest princess, she can't be wrong."

"Then... If you are ranking seniority, what do you call this eldest princess, sister?" Lu Bei asked curiously.

"The relatives are too far away, and I am not included in the Zhu family tree, so it is meaningless to arrange seniority."

Zhu Yan said it was meaningless, but her expression was extremely proud, and she patted Lu Bei on the shoulder: "To be honest, your senior sister and I are of the same generation as His Majesty today, and many old men of the Zhu family will respectfully call me aunt when they see me." .”

"So old?"

"Um?!"

"Cough cough."

Lu Bei clenched his fist and coughed twice, and said with a serious face: "Senior sister, don't get me wrong, I was born in an orphanage, and I have no idea about big families, nothing else, just strange..."

"It's strange that members of the royal family have high cultivation and long life spans, and they strictly limit the number of children they can have. Over the years, their seniority should be the highest. Why would I be of the same generation as them, right?" Zhu Yan said angrily.

"Smart people don't speak dark words, senior sister is wise."

"It's not surprising, whose ancestors have never been rich."

Zhu Yan briefly explained that her ancestors also had a generation with a high level of cultivation. They couldn't bear the infighting between the royal family and the Zhu family of Huangjizong.

Because the two are not offended, both sides are offended. The family has no resources to support, and the influence is not as good as the generation after generation.

"Understood, according to this relationship, His Majesty is my cousin and Zhu Qilan is my cousin. Is there anything wrong?"

"It doesn't matter, one or two of you are not missing."

Zhu Yan waved her hand casually. Old Zhu's family has everything, especially relatives.There are even more clusters in the capital. Eighty percent of the prisoners sent to prison and executed every year are related to the royal family. Even if the relationship is far away, the whole world is a family.

Suddenly, Zhu Yan thought of something, and said strangely: "For no reason, you kid asked what Princess Changming was doing, and the ugly words are up front. If you fail Senior Sister Bai, I won't be a senior sister in the future."

"Senior Sister, why did you say that? Senior Sister Bai and I are innocent, and we haven't written a word yet!" Lu Bei was shocked. The gossip guy really has something, and he saw through the truth of what the senior sister secretly promised him at a glance.

"Hmph, stop pretending here, I saw it with my own eyes that day..."

Zhu Yan raised her hand to make gestures, but she didn't say anything. She said in a strange way: "Princess Changming is in her boudoir and hasn't been married yet. She is the eldest sister of His Majesty. Marrying her is like reaching the sky in one step. Xiaobei, it's normal for you to want to hug her thighs." Work hard, you will get promoted and get rich in the future, remember to support your cousin who hangs out in poor places in the countryside."

Lu Bei rolled his eyes straight, using the tried-and-tested method of diverting attention, and raised his finger to the long street outside: "Report to senior sister, there is a jewelry store at the intersection, I just heard the call, all jewelry is [-]% off, today only, Do not wait until the expiration date."

"Oh, why didn't you say it earlier, is it Liu's gold shop?"

Zhu Yan's complexion changed drastically, and she dragged Lu Bei straight to the outside of the store: "Hurry up, run, I have a hairpin that I have been in love with for a long time, and I have never been willing to buy it, but it can be regarded as a discount."

With both hands in his sleeves, Lu Bei swayed after Zhu Yan. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw the latter rush into the duck forest, pay the bill and take away the long-awaited jewelry.

"Ah, I'm so happy."

Zhu Yan strode out of the gold shop, looked at the robe Lu Bei was wearing, frowned and said: "Your boy is not green or black, he is old enough, and he is not young at a young age. This is not good. I want to hook up with the princess. , I have to learn to spend money on myself, let's go, I am happy today, senior sister, and I will take you to make two new clothes."

Lu Bei nodded, not rejecting Zhu Yan's kindness.

Although She Yan made a few tailor-made new clothes for the little foxes a few days ago, and also ordered two for him by the way, he said that he has no shortage of clothes at present, but...

People's words are scary, especially in the face of the gossip party, the more they say, the more they will be exposed, so it is better not to mention it.

Lest the news spread back to Lingxiao Sword Sect, the senior sister would wash her face with tears all day long.

"Speaking of Princess Changming, I admired her a lot when I was a child. A marriage was pushed away as soon as possible, which made the man's family lose face, and it was useless for anyone to intercede..."

"My man can only be decided by me, if not, I would rather die alone..."

Zhu Yan wentssip about Lu Bei's popular science all the way, and suddenly became sour while talking: "I heard that there are people queuing up in front of her house every day, and gifts are not ordered by piece, and it is dishonest if it is less than a carload. If Xiaoyu is so valuable , I sell her once every few months, so I won't worry about it for the rest of my life."

Lu Bei: "..."

The speechless matter was not over yet, Zhu Yan met a few well-known women in Buzhuang, either from official backgrounds, or from wealthy merchants.Seeing Zhu Yan shopping with a pretty face and custom-made clothes for her, several beautiful women joked that Wei Mao must have a successful official career if he suffered such a catastrophe.

Not only did Zhu Yan not explain, but she also arrogantly grabbed Xiaobailian's arm, expressing that what they said was right.

A few beautiful women covered their mouths and smiled coquettishly, they approached Zhu Yan and joked with her, asking her where she could find a good friend.

Lu Bei stood in the crowd with a serious face. Every breath he took was filled with the smell of high-end rouge and gouache.

Considering that these are Zhu Yan's bad friends who spend time in daily life, he just endured the humiliation and kept quiet. He never thought that he would keep things quiet for Zhu Yan's sake, and the other party would become more and more arrogant instead.

The ass protested, but the brain told him to bear it any longer, and the dick shivered, fearing to be the next victim, and shouted for his hands to come to escort him.

Little Lu Bei spoke in person, unable to refute, ordered his hands and feet to push away the crowd, and walked quickly to the outside of Bu Zhuang.

"Hey, what is this?"

Lu Bei took out a pink handkerchief from his pocket. Seeing the address written on it, with a face like a jujube and brows that were like shit, he picked a lucky passerby at random, and stuffed the handkerchief in it.

According to gossip, on the second day, the county magistrate's liver qi stagnated for some reason, and he became seriously ill and was bedridden for three days.

Closer to home, Lu Bei stood waiting outside the cloth house, Zhu Yan finished gossiping with the beauties, and walked out with something more to say, holding Lu Bei's arm and walking towards the next shop.

A line of sight focused on his body, and Lu Bei felt something in his heart. The feeling spread out, and he glanced towards the source.

It was an extremely familiar figure from the back.

Wei Mao!

Lu Bei: (one`'one)

The eldest cousin is very well informed, just as the senior sister has a little boy, someone from his side has arrived.

Lu Bei snickered, seeing Wei Mao come and go in a hurry, pretending he never showed up, and rushed towards his hiding place with a bluffing Zhu Yan.

corner.

Lu Bei blocked Wei Mao, and laughed straight: "Big cousin, what a coincidence, why don't you come here and pee at the wall?"

"Oh, isn't this General Wei? What's the matter, the one who celebrates the Chinese New Year is not staying in the barracks, but ran out to meet his little lover?" Zhu Yan curled her lips, raised her hand and tightened her arms tightly, like an old lady who has someone to accompany her today, so she doesn't need to You are putting on airs.

"There are deserters hiding here, I'll come and have a look." Wei Mao replied lightly.

"Report to General Wei, I saw deserters, come with me, this way." Lu Bei grabbed Wei Mao's arm, there were so many people, it was more appropriate for him to lead the way.

Three people walk together.

As they walked, Lu Bei disappeared, and the two cuddled together.

Chapter 171 Died before leaving the teacher, and the envoy Xiandi spent all his budget

That night, Lu Bei didn't go back to the Wei Mansion, but went to the Zhu brothers' mansion for dinner.

Without him, counting his fingers, tonight the Weifu is in a war of war, and there are iron cavalry fighting against the door. I don't know when the money will be withdrawn, so he won't go there to make fun of himself.

Seeing the partners come to pay New Year's greetings, the brothers of the Zhu family greeted each other with red envelopes, and the three of them hooked up and went to Mingyue Tower for a small gathering. Lu Bei ate the long-lost authentic roast goose.

I have no experience before and don't know the cooking steps of making roast goose, so I can only try to make my mouth addicted.It’s different now. I have rich cooking experience many times, and I am confident that I can reversely deduce the chef’s production process based on the taste.

……

Yizhou, Nanyang County, Changming County.

Changming Mansion.

Changming is the name of the county, and it is also the title of the eldest princess Zhu Qilan. It is responsible for three thousand households in the city.

According to the Wu Zhou decree, unmarried and unmarried princesses do not enjoy food, and neither does the eldest princess. Zhu Qilan used to have a title with no real income.

But the emperor was very tolerant towards his sister, knowing that Zhu Qilan was far away in a foreign land, saying that he was entrusted with the land as king, but in fact it was comparable to exile, so he won many benefits for him after he ascended the throne, and the three thousand households in Shiyi was one of them.

Originally, according to the emperor's wishes, he was just such a biological sister. Three thousand households seemed to be a lot of false names, but the actual seal was only three hundred, and ten thousand households was about the same, barely worthy of the noble status of the eldest princess.

Because of unreasonable law and no precedent, it was rejected by the clan.

The emperor expressed his understanding that there is no precedent and it really shouldn't be, but it didn't happen before, which doesn't mean it won't happen in the future.

As the boss of Wu Zhou, he didn't want to act arbitrarily, and was willing to give the clan elders a face. The [-] households in the food town would not be changed, and the [-] households would be doubled, resulting in a total of [-] households.

The two sides took a step back, and Zhu Qilan's worth was settled in this way.

In this way, the tax and corvee bonuses of the [-] households were not returned to the imperial court, but were all handed over to the Changming Mansion, and the sister of the down-and-out princess became a rich woman who had no worries about food and drink in seconds.

Although she used to have no worries about food and drink, she was the only one among the civil servants in Wu Zhou who received the salary of the chief commander of Huangjizong.

At this moment, in front of the gate of the Changming Mansion, there is a long queue lined up neatly. There are people of all ages, old, middle-aged and young, but all of them are silk and satin, from prominent families.

It was about the location of the registration office. A young man put down the greeting card. The scribe in charge of the registration opened the card and looked at it.

The young man was looking forward to it, until his greeting card disappeared behind Xiao Qiang, and then he turned to say goodbye to the others.

"Master Zhao, are you here too?"

"General Wang, happy new year!"

"Seniors, I'm new here. Let me inquire. Can I see the Eldest Princess with one sword, ten pairs of jade, fifty pearls, one hundred pieces of brocade and silk, and ten thousand taels of silver?"

You are driving up the market price!

The crowd was taken aback when they heard the words, then shook their heads and laughed.

"Young man, are you from the country?"
