The general will eat grass

In Changle Hou's Mansion, "chickens fly and dogs jump".

Ever since the scandal of Miss Zhao and Master Guo's Biao framing her brother broke out, Mrs. Hou fell into the fault of being a goddaughter, and the mother and daughter were fined to contemplate their mistakes behind closed doors. Changlehou has been staying in the girl's room.Seeing his wife losing power, Liang Tongfang became more and more concerned. He usually hides in the backyard embroidering and playing the piano. Today, he brought them out to Chenxiang Pavilion to enjoy the warm winter sun.

Aunt Fat Tang also took her daughter out to bask in the sun. She is a regular wife, so of course she didn't want to share the house with Liangtong Fang, so she quarreled because of her status.

When Mrs. Hou heard the news, she became so angry that her endocrine disorders became unbalanced, and her face was swollen with a lot of peas.She was grounded, and the housekeeping power fell into Shi Wansheng's hands. Shi Wansheng was Shi Da's housekeeper, and Changlehou liked him because of his thorough and quick handling of affairs.

"Nurse, do you think that Shi Wansheng will be with Lord Hou..." Shi Wansheng is in his thirties, with an ordinary appearance, but he is very good at talking, can make people happy, and has good handling ability.

"Oh, my wife, aren't you confused?" Zhao mama wrinkled her forehead, the forehead lines made her age ten years old, "Don't think about it, it's easy to get divorced from Lord Hou."

Madam Hou caressed her chest, and felt that she was overthinking. The two dead Tongfang were so beautiful that she couldn't let herself be confused.

In Changle Hou's study, the patriarch Zhao Zongqi was losing his temper at Zhao Shoucheng, "You should think you are Yuanwang's age, so don't talk too much about nothing."

"Patriarch, I know I was wrong." He had five blessings with Zhao Yuansong, and he didn't need to see off his relatives. At that time, he thought that he could take this opportunity to get to know more dignitaries and find a good family for his daughter.

Zhao Shouyi, Marquis of Changle, also had a dark face, staring coldly at the Third Master Shu who was sitting silently by the side, "Why don't you stop me?"

The third concubine gave a ruffian smile, "What is my identity, how can I persuade the orthodox young masters?"

"You!" Zhao Shoucheng wanted to send off his relatives because he was not strong enough as the third concubine. Marquis Changle didn't object at first, but now the third concubine used this to block his mouth. "This matter is related to the Marquis of Changle, and it is related to the entire Zhao family in Wuyang. The emperor really wants to blame you. Do you think you and your mother can get away with it?"

The third master concubine shrugged helplessly: "I know that I can't get rid of the relationship, but my words really don't work."

Chang Lehou was so mad at his hob meat, another servant came to report the conflict in Chenxiang Pavilion, which was equivalent to adding fuel to the fire, he was so angry that he dropped his teacup.

The patriarch Zhao Zongqi was furious, pointing at Changle Hou and scolding: "How do you run the family? At this time, there is a disturbance in the house!" Then he scolded all the juniors indiscriminately: "It's not too chaotic, right? , Get out!"

"Sixth Uncle, this is Changlehou's Mansion." Changlehou was fed up too, the patriarch relied on his seniority and always liked to overwhelm others. "It's not a place for you to give orders!" He was a dignified third rank in the court, and he was not respected accordingly, and was scolded at his own home.

Zhao Zongqi was worried about his two favorite juniors, but he didn't notice his tone, he was humiliated by Chang Lehou, and he was even angrier at the moment. "Okay, this is Changle Hou Mansion, not Wuyang Zhao's territory, I'll go! From now on, you don't have to worry about Yuanji's affairs."

Marquis Changle didn't persuade him to stay, he had long wanted to sever ties with these relatives who were holding back.

The Zhao family broke up unhappy. On the way back to his courtyard, the third concubine was stopped by a little girl, saying that Aunt Hua had an invitation.

Third Master Concubine suppressed the smile on his face, with a flash of resistance in his eyes, he followed the little girl to Aunt Hua's place.

Aunt Hua was deaf and blind before she changed her mind. She opened her cloudy eyes and looked crazy: "What a great opportunity, as long as you kill the envoys, the Changle Hou Mansion will be over. Why don't you do it? Forget how your wife and children died." Is it done?"

Third Master Shu's lips twitched, but he didn't answer.

"Don't tell me that you don't want to implicate the innocent, how can you achieve great things with your soft temper."

"Aniang, if you do that, the Changle Hou Mansion will certainly fall apart, but you will also..."

"Hmph, don't make excuses for your weakness, you just have hard wings and won't listen to me, right?" Aunt Hua tore off the rosary in her hand, and threw it in the third master's face.

Third Master Shu lowered his head, hiding the pain in his eyes.

"That kid Yuan Song will definitely not be like you. He will come back tomorrow, and you will ask someone to hand over this letter to him."

"Auntie!"

"Zhao Shouli, I gave you your life, as long as you obey!"

In the Chongming Hall of the Imperial Palace, His Majesty the Emperor put down the bag in his hand and frowned, "Is Hong Yu still following Prince Pingnan?"

"Return to Your Majesty, Captain Hong is still following." Eunuch Li said with a bow.

"Hey, Changle Hou's house has been very busy these two days."

Eunuch Li remembered the rumors in the market, and laughed, "Everyone in the street says that Marquis Changle can't teach his children, he's a dude, a snake and a scorpion."

His Majesty the Emperor picked up the two papers on the royal case and compared them, and murmured thoughtlessly: "Should I marry her to the Nanping Palace, or go to Dongyi to make peace?" The royal marriageable princess had already been married, The oldest princess in the palace is only nine years old.

Eunuch Li: "...No matter where she is married, she will definitely fulfill His Majesty's expectations for her."

"That's true." His Majesty the Emperor stroked his beard and suddenly asked, "Is there any news from Jiang Zhen?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Mr. Wan has gotten closer to Prime Minister Jiang recently, and the third prince often goes out of the palace to visit his grandfather."

His Majesty the Emperor sneered, and lightly tapped the case with his fingers, "Third Emperor's filial piety is commendable, this Wan Boye is ridiculous. The official relatives of Dingguo's mansion do not leave, but run to the prime minister's mansion."

Eunuch Li kept his eyes on his nose, his nose and his heart, with his hands hanging down, without interjecting.

"Rongjin, let Yu Rongsheng invite Wan Boye to drink tea with him."

"Yes."

Yu Rongsheng, the commander of the Forbidden Army, secretly holds the position of Chief Superintendent of the Inspector's Mansion. He has countless spies all over the north and south.In the afternoon of the same day, Taichang made Mr. Wan disappear at home, frightening the whole family.

In the 12th year of Jianping, on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, another heavy snow covered the whole of Kyoto.

Today is the day when the Fourth Young Master Zhao Yuansong returns home, and the red lanterns in front of the gate of the Marquis Mansion in Changle have not been removed yet, but Steward Shi urges the servants to clean up the snow in front of the gate.Because the new son-in-law came to the door, Mrs. Hou and Miss Zhao were released.Early in the morning, Mrs. Hou dealt with the two rooms, and in order not to give up the excuse of being jealous, she immediately asked two juicy girls to fill the seats.

In the eyes of rich people, things like Tongfang are like modern inflatable dolls, with a body in hand, she can hit and kill as she wants.The husband will not get angry with her for a prop, and the two girls who have been promoted will kowtow to her with gratitude.

……While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone.Prosperity and decline are very close, and it is difficult to describe the melancholy. ...

Dingguo's carriage arrived, surrounded by twelve soldiers on tall horses.This ostentation is already very small, but there are too few dignitaries traveling today, and the soldiers from Dingguo's mansion are all heroic.When this matter came to the storyteller's mouth, it turned out that the husband and wife of General Changying wanted to return home, and they were very unhappy when they saw heavy snowfall. What should we do?It doesn't matter, General Changying drew his sword from his waist and slashed at the sky, the snow stopped.Let's go, let's go lightly, go back quickly.

Prince Pingnan, who was sitting in a teahouse and was in touch with the beauty: "...."

A certain beauty surnamed Zhao squinted her long and narrow red phoenix eyes, hiding her disdain very well.

In the main room of Mulan Courtyard in Changle Hou Mansion, three maids circled around Zhao Lanzhi. "Hurry up, today I'm going to wear a cloud bun and wear that set of red plum and jade emerald hair. Hmph, I want to look pretty, look at Zhao Yuansong's haggard look."

Second Miss Zhao has a new batch of maids around her, and all of them lowered their eyes and shut their mouths without squinting.

"Feng Changying doesn't like men, he absolutely doesn't. That little bastard was just as proud as before, but now he must be knocked out of the dust, leaving only the strong on the outside and mediocre on the outside. Hehehehe."

The three girls moved quickly, for fear that the second lady would be dissatisfied and slap her.

Zhao Yuansong and Feng Jingde walked into the main hall of Changle Marquis Mansion, Changle Marquis and his wife were already sitting at the head, Miss Zhao Er was in a ladylike demeanor, her back was straight, she only sat on half a chair, her eyebrows were respectful, her eyes were not squinting, and she had a graceful and decent demeanor .The third concubine was also there, his face was pale and tired, as if he hadn't slept well.

He said he would stay in the Marquis of Changle all the time, but the patriarch and a group of cousins ​​who waited for the juniors did not come out.Zhao Yuansong felt strange, and looked at Xiao Wu who was following behind him. Xiao Wu understood, handed the gift to Steward Shi, and exited the main hall under the pretext that he had something to say to the soldiers waiting in the gatehouse.

Everyone said a few polite words, stayed for a meal, and then got up to leave.No one jumped out to find fault, which made Zhao Yuansong a little uncomfortable. Before he left, he couldn't help but look at Miss Zhao Er a few more times.

"What are you looking at, let's go." Feng Jingde let out a cold air, obviously he didn't like Changle Hou Mansion.He disliked Zhao Yuansong's slow walking, so he picked him up and strode away.

In the eyes of others, he looks like a very jealous husband who thinks that a man's wife looks at other women.

Zhao Lanzhi gritted her teeth, and the handkerchief in her hand had already been taken off.

"Be careful on the way back and pay attention to safety." The third concubine came out to see off his son-in-law on behalf of Chang Lehou. He looked at Zhao Yuansong with a very gentle look.

"What happened to third uncle today?"

"It's nothing, because of the envoy's affairs, the patriarch took Yuan Ji and the others to live outside in a fit of anger, and Zhao Shoucheng also left." The third concubine smiled: "Marquis Changle is very angry, I am very happy, I was so happy that I didn't sleep all night. "This is similar to the news that Xiao Wu came back from inquiring, and Zhao Yuansong had no doubts.

It's just that his smile was bitter, Zhao Yuansong thought he thought of his third aunt Shu and sister Qi'er. "No, let's split up, and find an excuse while the patriarch is still in the capital."

The third master concubine shook his head and sighed: "He won't let people go. Apart from being filial, he will find other excuses."

"Why? Why does he insist on detaining you in the Hou Mansion as criminals?"

The third master concubine just sighed and said nothing. "Let's go, while the weather is fine, or it will snow again in a while."

Saying goodbye to the third master, Zhao Yuansong sat in the carriage thinking about this question all the time.

"What are you thinking?" Feng Jingde stretched out his hand and shook it in front of him.

"Huh? Oh, I'm thinking about my third uncle." Zhao Yuansong told Feng Jingde what the third concubine had said to him before, "Would you dislike my identity?"

Feng Jingde shook his head: "Of course not." In his last life, he vaguely guessed Zhao Yuansong's identity, and it was only verified today.

Zhao Yuansong let out a sigh of relief, "As for the third uncle... he has many doubts, and what he said is true, but it seems to be inconsistent. But no matter what, he and Grandma Hua have helped me, and I want to help They left the Marquis of Changle. General, tell me, if I ask my third uncle to be in charge of the coal sales in Kyoto, he will become famous in the future, will he be appointed as an official? At that time, can he leave the Marquis of Changle? "

"It's feasible." In the last life, coal sales were started five years later than in this life, and Zhao Shouli also started it. It seems that Zhao Yuansong came up with the idea later.

After a beep, Feng Jingde lifted the curtain of the car to look out, and said to Zhao Yuansong with a serious expression: "Someone has been following us, and you will sit in the middle of the carriage in a while, don't be afraid, Xiao Wu will come in to protect you."

"What happened?"

"There is a masked man in black outside. He has been with us for a long time. I am afraid that the person who came was not kind."

Zhao Yuansong: "..." In broad daylight, there is snow everywhere, wearing black clothes, how stupid is this person?
