Zhuangzi courtyard

Zhou Rui's lowered eyes were full of disdain for the fat middle-aged man in front of him, and his tone was full of ridicule and sarcasm: "Boss Wang, I still say that, this Zhuangzi, Buy it now, 6000 taels of silver, not a penny less." It's just that a merchant with a little bit of money dares to bargain with me here, I really don't know what it means.

Known as Boss Wang by Zhou Rui, looking at Zhou Rui's expression and tone of voice, the anger in his heart also rose one after another, but he knew that he couldn't afford to offend the person in front of him, so he could only reluctantly Suppressing his anger, he said in a low voice, "Boss Zhou, although your Zhuangzi is located in the capital and the area is not small, your price is too high. Even if there are better ones than yours, at most it will But it’s about 1 taels of silver, and your mouth is twice as big as others, isn’t it...?” He is almost regretting it now, because he is too greedy, and feels that this Zhuangzi is better than the one he has seen before. No matter the location or area, it is much better than it, and he wanted to be closer to the city, maybe he could have some relationship with Rongguo Mansion, so it would be convenient for him to gain a foothold in the capital in the future.I didn't want to be slapped so hard, the price was more than double the normal market price.And looking at the posture, I actually want to buy and sell by force...

"Boss Wang, you don't know about this. Our Zhuangzi has an excellent geographical location, a vast area, fertile land, and a good annual harvest. If it weren't for the money at home, how could our master be willing to sell it?" Lost? You know, how rare it is to buy such a Zhuangzi in the vicinity of central Beijing! Besides, you can see that the surroundings of this Zhuangzi are all surrounded by royal family and nobles. The one who came here to make trouble. The hill to the east is the Zhuangzi of the fifteenth prince. Speaking of which, our family also has a relationship with the fifteenth prince. The granddaughter of the old lady in our mansion, but It's Brother Fifteen's Di Fujin." Seeing that Boss Wang still didn't let go, Zhou Rui twitched the corner of his mouth and said so.It's just that when his words first started, they were still words of persuasion, but in the end, they meant threats.Even under the names of [-]th Elder Brother and [-]th Fujin.

Sure enough, when Boss Wang heard Zhou Rui's words, he was startled at first, and then hesitation appeared on his unwilling face. After a while, he gritted his teeth and nodded in response: "Since Zhou Rui The steward said so. Then I have nothing to say? If that’s the case, let’s set the price according to what steward Zhou said.” There was even a little trembling at the end of the sentence...

Originally, if it was Rongguo Mansion alone, he wouldn't have to be so scruples.Before he came to the capital, he had already inquired about it. Although this Rongguo Mansion was said to be the home of the rich and powerful, it had been inherited for a hundred years, but because there were no very promising talents in the clan, it had already begun to decline.So just now he was thinking, if the price cannot be negotiated, then just pull it down and leave by himself. Guessing that the Rongguo Mansion doesn't have the ability now, what will happen to him?What's more, he also has a moderate backer behind him, but it's different now that the fifteenth elder brother is involved.He just arrived here, but he didn't find out that the granddaughter of the Rongguo Mansion was actually the fifteenth Fujin.If that's the case... the backer behind him is nothing?In this world, who else can be more respected than the royal family... Then I can only accept this trick...

Seeing Boss Wang's bitter face, Zhou Rui was overjoyed: "Boss Wang is indeed a straightforward person. Since that's the case, I'll ask someone to make some deeds."

But before he opened his mouth to tell the servant to go, he heard someone disturbing outside, and then he heard the servant's voice outside, "Sure enough, it's the royal family, this ostentation is really grand!" ''I heard that in the carriage is the fifteenth elder brother's wife Fujin. 'Wait a few words of admiration.

Hearing the voice, Boss Wang thought for a while before walking out.

You can't be so lucky, can you?Just in time for the fifteenth Fujin to go back?

Seeing this, Zhou Rui couldn't help muttering, raised his eyebrows, and had a bad premonition in his heart.

When I went out, I saw three carriages coming slowly. The carriage in front was the most eye-catching. It was an ebony carriage with four horses covered with bells. The golden bells at the four corners shone brightly in the sun, following the horses every step forward. , it will emit a crisp and pleasant bell, and as for the two ordinary blue carriages behind, it is obvious that they are for the servants.There were guards at the front and back of the carriage, and after seeing the battle, one could tell that it was the royal family traveling, and the prince or prince Fujin was traveling, otherwise ordinary people would dare to use this gold.

"Is this the frame of the [-]th Fujin?" Boss Wang asked, pulling the arm of a boy who was also watching the fun outside.

The young servant nodded proudly: "But! Speaking of which, the fifteenth Fujin is the first cousin of our family, and her mother is the first daughter of our old lady, and the first sister of the first and second masters. Never before When I was out of the pavilion, I also walked around the mansion a few times. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the chance to meet him when I was in Zhuangzi, but I heard that he is a Zhongxiu Yuxiu celestial being.”

When Boss Wang heard this, what did he think of?A strange color flashed between his brows, he looked at Zhou Rui who had already walked out, and said, "Boss Zhou, let's sign and transfer the ownership right now." Although the price may be a bit unfair, but if we can get together with Rongguo Mansion The previous relationship wasn't bad either.

Zhou Rui's was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Boss Wang is indeed a cheerful person, please come inside." He was worried about bad luck just now, and just happened to meet the [-]th Fujin returning home, fearing that something bad would happen.But I think so, it just happened that the fifteenth Fujin passed by here.What are you worrying about?Boss Wang is just a foreign businessman, how could he have the guts to intercept the carriage of the [-]th Fujin?

The contract was signed very quickly, and the transaction will be completed only after going to the Yamen to register in the afternoon.I didn't expect that it would go so smoothly. I thought that the price Mrs. Wang said was only 3000 taels, and after the registration was completed, I would be able to drop [-] taels!Thinking of this, Zhou Rui's attitude towards Boss Wang became warmer by two points.

the other side

Qingyu didn't know that Zhou Rui used her name to make a big deal over there.She went all the way back to the palace, just got out of the carriage, and went back to her own yard, and saw Zhugege, Dugege, Guerjia and Li Jiashi had already greeted her in the yard.

After seeing sapphire, Qi Qi saluted with blessings.

"Welcome Fujin back home, auspicious and healthy!"

"Get up." Waving his hand, Qingyu said in a lukewarm tone, indifferent to this.

After dismissing Dugege and the others, Qingyu asked, what happened in the mansion these two days?

Bu Yao blessed Fushen, and replied: "If you go back to Fujin, everything in the mansion is normal. The daily life and rest of the young masters are also normal." There was a slight pause in the tone, and then said: "It's just, this morning, Jia's mansion Second Master Lian and Second Grandma Lian came over, but because Master Bei and Fujin were not there, they only stopped for a while and then went back. Leave a message and say that we will come to visit tomorrow."

"I see. Apart from that, is there anything else?" Qingyu frowned slightly, then asked.

"In addition, another eight Fujin also sent a post to Fujin this morning, saying that the lotus in the lotus pond in the mansion is blooming, and invited Fujin to enjoy the flowers." I didn't know where to find out an invitation Post it out and hand it to Qingyu.

The big red invitation card, on which a lifelike blooming lotus is depicted with gold powder, exudes a very clear and refreshing fragrance of lotus, and the whole post exudes a flamboyant and luxurious atmosphere, just like the feeling of Bafujin generally.

The time is five days later.Flower viewing?Although I don't know what Bafujin wants to do?But one thing is certain, that is, it will definitely not be a pure flower viewing feast.

"Did you reply to Bafujin?"

"If you go back to Fujin, you haven't yet." Bu Yaofu replied Fushen.

Qingyu pondered for a while, and said: "Jade, you wrote a reply, saying that I will go on time." Fei Cui's handwriting is the most beautiful, and even her father Lin Ruhai said that her handwriting is very good. The artistic conception, so the replies to the invitations are all written by her ghostwriter.

"Yes, Fujin."

At night, when Yinzhen came back from the outside, it was already time to rest.

Qingyu was holding a white jade bowl the size of an adult's palm, sipping almond milk, taking a bath and resting when she was done.Seeing that the clothes on Yinyu's body were also a little wrinkled, and the tiredness between his brows was even more unconcealable, he immediately put down the bowl in his hand, and hurriedly asked the maids in the room, those who brought water, and those who were looking for clothes, to find clothes.

After Yinxu changed clothes, washed his face with warm water, and took a sip of hot tea, his expression relaxed a lot.

"Bu Yao, go over and ask the kitchen to cook some side dishes that I like. Also, see if there is still almond milk in the kitchen? If there is, let someone bring it over in a hot bowl." Knowing that Yinzhen has not had time to eat Dinner, Qingyu immediately ordered.

Bu Yao replied, and Fu Fu went over.

After Yinxu had dinner, he paused for a while, and then waved away all the maids, leaving only the emerald that should be on duty tonight outside.

"In the past few days, if it is not necessary, try to avoid contact with other people as much as possible. I am afraid that the sky will change in Beijing." After all the maids left, Yinzhen did not beat around the bush and said bluntly.

Hearing this, Qingyu was startled, and then thought of it quickly.The time of the second waste prince seems to be around this time.He nodded immediately: "Don't worry, Lord, I understand. I will pay more attention, and the whole house will be restrained." No wonder he left in such a hurry yesterday, probably because of this matter.

"You are a proper one." Yinxuan nodded.He still has great confidence in his family Fujin's ability to control people.

Because of this incident, both Yinzhen and Qingyu had something to worry about, they had nothing to say after waiting all night, Qingyu didn't know how long it took before they could barely fall asleep.

Sure enough, from the next day, Yinzhen began to get busy, and often came back exhausted in the middle of the night, and sometimes even stayed away all night.

As for the flower viewing banquet over at the Eight Fujins, I don't know why?It was canceled two days ago.

The atmosphere in the capital has become tense, even when Qingyu went to the palace to greet the secret concubine, she was not seen urging the heirs in the mansion.Instead, he told himself to take more care of Yinzhen and so on.

Another four or five days later, Qingyu sent someone to bring back Daiyu and Tana who were on Zhuangzi.Daiyu returned to the Lin Mansion, but Tana did not return to the Palace immediately, but went directly to the Old Summer Palace.

At the end of August, Kangxi decreed that the tenth elder brother Aixinjueluo Yinyi would be the king of Dunjun, the twelfth elder brother Aixinjueluo Yinyi would be the king of Lujun, and the fourteenth elder brother Aixinjueluo Yinzhen [-]th elder brother Aixinjueluo Yinyu is Dorobeile, the [-]th elder brother Aixinjueluo Yinlu, the [-]th elder brother Aixinjueluo Yinli, and the [-]th elder brother Aixinjueluo is Gushan Beizi .

Although I don't know why?But Qingyu is very happy from the bottom of her heart that her Beizi Mansion has become a higher-level Baylor Mansion.

Because of this incident, the tense atmosphere in Beijing has eased a lot.

But that is only temporary.

In a few days, a courtier wrote a letter.It is said that the position of the prince in the East Palace is empty, and the ministers think it is inappropriate. They should establish the prince as soon as possible to rectify the country.For the first time, Kangxi ignored it, but after another two months, officials kept writing about it.Repeatedly writing letters angered Kangxi, and immediately became very angry in the court, and even the princes and elder brothers were scolded for this.Especially the fourth elder brother and eighth elder brother who are now in the limelight.

It's just that Kangxi's easy anger didn't bring the discussion of the establishment of the crown prince to a temporary conclusion, but instead increased the enthusiasm of the courtiers.At the beginning of November, even more ministers wrote a letter, proposing to make the eighth elder brother Yinhu the crown prince.

This time, it completely annoyed the hornet's nest.

As the party involved, Yinhu was scolded by Kangxi in front of all the civil and military officials, and he almost pointed at his nose and said that he coveted the throne.Yinhu, on the other hand, knelt down and wept bitterly, swearing and swearing that he had no intention of coveting the throne.

But even though he said so, Kangxi didn't have any confidence, and even started to suppress the Eighth Brother faction as if there was nothing.Of course, he suppressed the eighth elder brother's faction, and he didn't praise the fourth elder brother's faction too much.

This year, the eighth elder brother Yinhu was unlucky.

On November [-]th, Concubine Liang, who had been bedridden for many days, passed away one night.
