beggar prince

Zhao Yuanjian took Lin Heng back to the capital.The capital is bustling and bustling, and on top of the boundless mountains in the distance is the majestic Forbidden City.There are many high-rise buildings along the street nearby, and the shops are lined up one after another.The crowds are dense, cars and horses gather together, the common people on the street are rubbing shoulders, and the sound of hawking can be heard endlessly.

Lin Heng looked at the passers-by on Qingshi Street, officials riding tall horses, ladies from wealthy families sitting in red-topped sedan chairs, jugglers juggling big knives at street corners, all kinds of people gathered on the streets of the capital, and he was delighted to see them .

The carriage stopped in front of the General's Mansion, and three servants came to help Zhao Yuanjian get off the carriage.

The gate of the General's Mansion is painted with mahogany lacquer, with brass door nails, solemn and solemn.On the gold-threaded mahogany plaque on the door beam, there are big gilt characters written in dragons and phoenixes: Mansion of General Hushi.

In front of the gate of the mansion, there are ten strong soldiers guarding the gate with red-tasseled guns.Zhao Yuanjian led Lin Heng through the gate of the mansion and walked in.

Walking into the mansion, the courtyard is spacious and can accommodate thousands of people. There is a garden in the center of the courtyard, with rockery and flowing water, pavilions, wooden corridors, and rare trees and flowers planted on both sides of the path.

Going further in, a small building comes into view, with green tiles and vermilion tiles, carved dragons and painted phoenixes, magnificent.The plaque on the door is hung with three gilt characters of "General Building".Ten soldiers with steel knives stood guard in front of the gate of the building.

Lin Heng wants to be a general, it's too majestic!

Zhao Yuanjian led Lin Heng into the building, and Lin Heng saw a tall man at the door of the building, about 50 years old, with a sparse beard, thick eyebrows and big eyes.Gray hair.

The man watched them walk into the building, but he only glanced at them and continued to drink tea. He had a majestic aura, and Lin Heng looked at him a little nervously.

Zhao Yuanjian leaned over and bowed: "Father, the child is back."

Lin Heng hurriedly bent down and knelt on one side.

Zhao Shengqi put down the tea bowl: "Your brother, are you feeling better?"

Zhao Yuanjian said politely: "Report to father, elder brother is fine."

Zhao Shengqi said with a straight face: "Your eldest brother has not been very obedient these years, maybe he is far away, so he is not afraid of my father anymore."

"Father, elder brother dare not disobey your orders, but the situation at the border is changing. As soon as your order was delivered, other things happened there, so elder brother can't completely follow father's teachings."

Zhao Shengqi looked down at Lin Heng, his eyes were deep and unfathomable.Lin Heng felt oppressed by the presence of wolves, tigers and leopards.He said to Lin Heng: "You go out first."

Lin Heng ran out quickly.

Zhao Shengqi laughed loudly: "You are doing well, a hundred times better than your brothers."

Zhao Yuanjian: "I don't know what father's plan is?"

Zhao Shengqi: "You keep the prince by your side and cultivate your feelings. Depending on the situation in the future, if the queen mother loses the battle, the Zhao family will push out the prince and continue to fight with the Xiao family. If the queen mother wins the Xiao family, then I will inherit it." The throne, kill the prince."

Zhao Yuanjian: "Yes, father, the child listens to you, but I want to propose marriage to Princess Yuanshan, what do you think should be done?"

"Don't worry, if you do well, I will mention this marriage to the Queen Mother. I will give you 50 gold first, what do you think?"

Zhao Yuanjian knelt down and kowtowed happily: "Thank you, father!"

After Zhao Yuanjian came out and wiped the sweat off his brow, Lin Heng felt a little sympathetic to the young master.

Zhao Yuanjian: "Father is terrible, but fortunately there is nothing wrong, or else he will train me for a long time."

Lin Heng thought that he would be far away from the master in the future, so he felt more terrifying than Uncle Qin. If Uncle Qin was a mad dog, then Master Zhao would be a tiger.

He took Lin Heng back to his house, and saw pretty maids greeted them at the door. They were dressed in purple silk and emerald pattern skirts, with Ziyunying pendants on their ears, and each maid had a faint smile on her face. .

Seeing that his maids were in a great mood, Zhao Yuanjian took off his cloak and let the maids take it in.

Lin Heng entered the main room and saw that the furniture in the room were all made of pineapple wood. Inside was a bed with rich and noble flowers, with crescent white gauze hanging on it, and a large autumn-colored peony mattress behind the gauze.

Beside the soft-smoke screen window, the silk curtain is lightly closed, and there is a gold silk embroidered screen with a picture of blue peacocks and hundreds of flowers on the side, which is shining with luster.

In front of the screen is a long pear flower wood book case with a raised head, precious inkstones, brushes and inks are all available.There are two Ru kiln large celadon porcelain vases with crane pattern on the corner of the desk, with several gorgeous peonies inserted.

On the treasure cabinet are all kinds of smooth suet white jade carvings, such as flying dragons in the sky and hundreds of birds contending.

On the right side is a huanghuali qin table. On the qin table is a green and colorful phoenix guqin. Beside the qin is a small incense burner inlaid with beads and a garden belly. Incense is inserted in the incense burner. The cloud-like aroma diffuses and fills the room.

Lin Heng looked at the treasure, drooling.He picked up the sapphire teapot on the table, filled a bowl of Biluochun tea and presented it to Zhao Yuanjian, who drank the tea lightly.

Zhao Yuan was lying on the bed with a book and eating grapes, while the maid, Lu Liu, was standing aside with a peacock fan, fanning him.

Looking for Yuanjian's back to itch, he asked the maid Ziyu to scratch it for him.

The little maid Hanshuang brought a plate of plum blossom ice cubes and fed them to Zhao Yuanjian.

Lin Heng thought that the son of the great general lived a luxurious life, which was much more comfortable than his former young master of the Lin family.

Lin Heng was hungry. He jumped on the chair and looked at Zhao Yuanjian with one eye. Zhao Yuanjian looked up at him and felt that his book boy was like an old man.

Lin Heng yelled: "Brother Immortal. I'm hungry."

Zhao Yuanjian said: "You can't be called Brother Immortal here. If your father hears about it, I'll guarantee you a meal."

Zhao Yuanjian pointed to a plate of grapes and snacks for Lin Heng to eat, and sent Hanshuang to the kitchen to order.

Hanshuang held a sweat towel, twisted her slender waist, opened the curtain and walked out. Lin Heng was dumbfounded, he thought this sister had a charming figure.

Lin Heng sat in front of the fruit plate and ate grapes, stuffing three or four grapes into his mouth at the same time, his mouth bulging.The mouth was full of purple juice, and the juice flowed onto the coarse cloth gown, staining the entire skirt.

Lin Heng has been a beggar for a long time, and he is used to eating like this. A group of beggars huddled together, and if they didn't eat anything, they would have been snatched away.

The maids wondered how the young master would find a bumpkin to be a school boy, and how he would serve the young master on the bed in the future.

The maids peeked at him from time to time, covering their mouths and giggling, which made Lin Heng a little embarrassed.

Luliu's feather fan fell on the carpet, and Lin Heng suddenly panicked. He wondered how the young master would punish the maid, whether he would pull it out to beat the board.

Zhao Yuanjian turned over and continued to read, Lin Hengxin fell to the ground.

The servant came with a gold-painted food box, and brought out emerald balls, soy bamboo shoots, fried shrimp, and sand ginseng heart and lung soup on the round table.

Zhao Yuanjian saw Lin Heng drooling and told him to sit down and eat together.

At first Lin Heng pretended to be gentle, but after a while he snatched whatever Zhao Yuanjian pinched.He picked up a few chopsticks and stuffed them into his mouth, making it hard to keep his mouth shut.

Zhao Yuanjian felt that Lin Heng didn't chew the vegetables, and he swallowed the vegetables.

Lin Heng couldn't hold his mouth anymore, and sprayed it out with a puff, Zhao Yuanjian's face was covered with scum.Every dish had him sprayed with residue too.

Lin Heng immediately trembled with fear.

Zhao Yuanjian's face turned black, he dropped his chopsticks, stood up and said, "What do you look like? It's too outrageous. You don't know any manners!"

The maids hurried over to get sweat towels and wipe Zhao Yuanjian's face. They looked at Lin Heng with disgust.

Lin Heng hugged Zhao Yuanjian's thigh and kept admitting his mistake: "Master, I was wrong."

Zhao Yuanjian kicked him away, and asked the family to throw Lin Heng to the wife of the house manager, Nanny Li.

Nanny Li looked at a shivering little dumpling, with a straight face, she took a board and slapped it on the table. She said angrily, "Stand up!"

Lin Heng saw how fierce she was, so he stood up: "I was wrong, I have no manners, I am not good, but you old woman can't be so fierce!"

Nanny Li was so angry that she asked her servant to push Lin Heng down and hold Lin Heng down.

She whipped Lin Heng more than a dozen times with a stick, and finally sat down and reprimanded him: "Heng Er! How dare you talk back! You must know that this is the mansion of General Hushi. In such a wealthy family, being a book boy Yes, there will be a lot of publicity in the future. How many boys are crying and clamoring to be the young master's book boy, none of them are glamorous and talented. The young master just accepted a person like you as a book boy. Light! If it weren't for the kindness of the young master, you are pitiful, you would have died outside. I don't understand why the young master fell in love with you. What's so good about you, you are ugly, dirty and have no manners!" Li Nanny said excitedly At the same time, I patted the board for a while.

Nanny Li said again: "If you want to serve the young master, you have to change your beggar behavior! If you don't change, I will ask my wife to make the decision, drive you away, and continue to be a beggar!"

After hearing these words, Lin Heng thought that the young master was indeed very kind to me, and he dared to take a beggar like me.

Lin Heng said: "Heng Er knew he was wrong."

Nanny Li sent a maid to bring a large washing tub, a new brocade gown and black boots, and asked Lin Heng to change the old gown.

Nanny Li: "The first thing is to know that you are clean and you can't smell on your body."

Lin Heng changed into a new gown and squatted down to wash his old one.While he was washing a stick of incense, Nanny Li saw that he was not washing well, so she whipped him a few more times.

She sent her servant girl to fetch food.She said: "The second thing is to eat politely, eat slowly, and don't speak at the table."

Lin Heng carefully picked up the vegetables and chewed them carefully.But he kept babbling all the time.Nanny Li whipped him again.

Nanny Li took out a booklet and handed it to Lin Heng. Lin Heng took it and looked at it. It was a picture of men's erotic palace.

Lin Heng asked: "Mother, why are you showing me this?"

Nanny Li: "As a book boy, you have to serve the young master. If the young master wants you to serve him on the bed, you should follow the posture in this picture and serve the young master well."

Lin Heng's eyes widened. Only then did he realize that to be a book boy, he had to share the same bed with the young master.He thought: Fortunately, I am ugly, the young master will definitely not lay hands on me.

Nanny Li is quite satisfied with him: "That's all for today. You have to remember what I said today."

Lin Heng hurriedly bowed his thanks to Mammy Li, and said, "I'm so damn regretful, Mammy, calm down."

Hearing his swear words, Nanny Li left angrily without looking back at him.

When Lin Heng returned to Zhao Yuanjian's mansion, Lin Heng grabbed Zhao Yuanjian's clothes and said, "Master, I will study hard and not let you down. I can no longer be your broom star."

Zhao Yuanjian was chatting and laughing with the maids, looking at him with evil intentions.He leaned down, looked at Lin Heng with wide eyes, and said, "Forget it, just perform well, and if you don't perform well, you will be sent back to the Beggars' Sect."

When the maids in other houses heard that the young master was back, they all ran to see Zhao Yuanjian.

Zhao Yuanjian played with the maids together and said, "I brought you rouge and gouache this time when I come back."

They surrounded him and took three boxes each.

He said mischievously, "I also bought you frozen emerald persimmons and frozen emerald pears, but Heng Er stole them all."

The maids sighed.Lu Liu said: "Master, your time in the mansion is short, we girls miss you very much."

Zhao Yuanjian put his nose close to Luliu's lips. She had just rubbed red rouge on her face, and he said, "It smells so good."

Luliu blushed and ran away, he went to pester another maid again, he pinched the little maid's hand and said: "Jiu'er, do you miss me?"

Jiu'er smiled and opened the curtain and ran away, Zhao Yuanjian approached another maid, smelling her little face, the maid ran away again.

Then Zhao Yuanjian stopped making trouble, and he told them about Liaodong, and they were very happy to hear it.

Lin Heng looked at the flirtatious Zhao Yuanjian with contempt, thinking that there are really not many good things from the master and the master.That night he dreamed of returning to the beggar gang again, and the boss of the beggar pestered him for copper coins and steamed buns.

Half a year later, Nanny Li cleaned up Lin Heng very obediently, eating gracefully and dressing neatly.But Lin Heng's walking, sitting, and lying are still not elegant, and it's useless to teach him how to teach him.

Lin Heng ate well and dressed warmly in the General's Mansion, and became fatter than before. His sunken and bruised cheeks grew flesh and became fair, and his grizzled hair gradually turned black.

Zhao Yuanjian poured medicine out of nowhere and rubbed Lin Heng's scars, and the scars on his face gradually faded.He doesn't look like a brat now.

Lin Heng's exposed half of his face had snow-like skin.The watery apricot eyes and rosy lips often reminded Zhao Yuanjian of the excitement he felt when he saw Lin Heng for the first time in the Qin Mansion.

Zhao Yuanjian regretted not getting Lin Heng back sooner, and ruined his face for nothing.

Mrs. Zhao asked Nanny Li to teach him some decent words, telling him how to protect the young master, how to rescue the young master, and how to offend the young master.

Madam invited an instructor to teach Lin Heng martial arts.She said: "Heng Er, you have to study hard so that you can protect the young master in the future. If you are in danger, you will rush in front of him, if you have a knife, block the knife for him, and if you have a punch, block the punch for him."

Lin Heng was very happy. He originally planned to learn kung fu.This is just time to learn.He got up on the fourth watch every day to practice boxing, horse stance, and light work with the instructor.

Zhao Yuanjian set off for Xunlu Academy this day, he took Lin Heng with him and got into the carriage.
