In the early morning of the second day, when it was still daylight, a simple blue cloth carriage drove out of the prime minister's residence.At this time, there were still few people on the street, not even a few vendors selling steamed buns and vegetables came out on both sides of the street, and a thin mist enveloped the street.
He Yunzheng sat quietly in the carriage, frowning, and a simple package beside him.Inside were some clothes and some silver taels, which were the last things he brought out from the prime minister's mansion.
The carriage crossed the main street and entered a small alley, "Master, the place is here." The servant who drove the carriage flicked his whip one last time, and the carriage stopped at the gate of a small courtyard, and he called softly.
Putting the small package behind him, He Yunzheng jumped out of the car, then pursed his lips, opened the door and walked into the courtyard without looking back.This is the last thing his current father gave him. It was almost a decoration in the previous life, and he will not live here for too long in this life.
The servant glanced at the simple courtyard gate, thinking that this place looks not much different from the place where the young master lived before, but the father and son of the He family are quite cold-hearted.Father and son haven't seen each other for ten years, and when they meet, they are separated from each other, and neither of the two of them has said that they don't want to part with each other... But, those are other people's lives.
The nobleman has his troubles, and he, the villain who drives the horse, also has his own troubles; he is rich and prosperous, and he is daily necessities.
The horse snorted, and the servant waved his whip, "Woo..."
The yard is neat and tidy, not too big, probably a house that a middle-class family can afford.There were a few unnamed plants growing on the side of the wall, and the summer sun was blazing. He Yunzheng opened a door and entered without looking at it.
The indoor layout is very similar to his residence in the prime minister's mansion, similar and simple, he put the things in his hands on the table, and he didn't have the intention to open them up.He won't live in this small house for long, and he has to go to the prince's invitation today.
This is what the other party agreed with He Yunzheng. The prince invited him to drink tea at Yong'an Teahouse, and the time was set for this afternoon.What to talk about is nothing more than having fun or asking him to be a companion.
Memories of the past quietly appeared in the eyes, passing by the black pupils like streamers.
Speaking of which, He Yunzheng has never been out of the house. He can recognize the words Yong'an Tea House, but he doesn't know a few of the various criss-crossing roads in the capital.After wandering around for a few hours, he finally found the place. He raised his hand and touched his forehead. Of course, he didn't want to be a prince to accompany him.Not to mention that the original owner was not interested in fame and fortune, and now he wanted to avoid the prince and practice in the mountains, or to change his life alone.
Once "a scholar died for his confidant", he was willing to be the shadow of others, but it turned out to be a joke in the end.Now, of course He Yunzheng wants to live for himself, even with his substitute, he also wants to live comfortably.
In the future, I will walk in the sunshine and live for myself in a comfortable way.He Yunzheng suddenly laughed. In fact, this is very simple... It can be said that it is easy.
A ten-year-old boy in a simple white dress entered Yong'an Teahouse with a small package on his back. He was drinking tea at the seat facing the door, and he was in his teens, white and gray like a milk doll. The boy stood up.He called He Yunzheng in a soft voice, as if pinching his throat, he said, "Master, you are finally here, my father has been waiting for you for an hour."
The boy took him into a private room upstairs.As soon as He Yunzheng walked in, the person inside pulled him to sit down, pushed a plate of dim sum in front of him, and the person sat opposite.The prince couldn't hide his excitement, and he pretended to be calm and calm, "Yun Zheng, my mother and concubine have already agreed, and you can go to the palace in two days."
The prince carefully observed He Yunzheng's face when he said this, and the other party didn't show anything special, let alone the excitement he thought he would have.The prince felt uncomfortable when he couldn't get the result he wanted to see.
He Yunzheng was eating a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake earnestly in one hand, and fiddled with the tea in the cup with the lid of the teacup in the other hand.There was no obvious joy on his face, the prince glanced at He Yunzheng's calm eyes, and slightly doubted whether the other party listened to his words seriously.
He remembered what his concubine had said that a ruler should be free from emotions, let alone allow his mood to be influenced by others, the atmosphere in the air was silent for a long time.The prince took another look at He Yunzheng's small body and asked, "Did you not eat today?"
He Yunzheng nodded, took a sip of tea, and swallowed what was in his mouth, "Now I live in the yard outside, and there is no water or food in the house." He glanced at the prince in brocade clothes, "You may not I know, I don't know how to cook." After saying this, he continued to eat the remaining half piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake.
"I..." the prince murmured, a little embarrassed.He thought that although He Yunzheng is a young man and his life is not good, he must have never cooked by himself. "Then you have something to eat first, Li Derong then go and order something to eat!" The crown prince waved his hand to greet the little eunuch who had just led He Yunzheng upstairs.At the end, he sighed: "I didn't expect you to live so poorly now."
Li Derong smiled wryly, "Master, you are here, don't leave. This slave will go out now, and I won't keep the two of you waiting. If you disappear, the empress will definitely cut off the slave's head!"
The prince waved his hand, a little annoyed, this Li Derong is good at everything but too nagging.He Yunzheng put down the teacup in his hand and said thank you, but he didn't feel much gratitude in his heart.The prince on the opposite side never regarded him as a friend, at least not at all now. He said that inviting him to eat was not out of concern among friends, but a gift from the superior.If he refuses, the other party will only treat him as ignorant of good and bad, and will not understand his embarrassment at all.He lowered his head and reached out to take a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake. It's better to fill his stomach now.
There was a burst of girlish laughter outside the window, as sweet as silver bells, "Master Liu, do you want our Zhuer's hairpin?" The girl who was speaking smiled while covering her lips with an embroidered handkerchief, and her charming Liu eyebrows Wei Wei provoked it, and the teasing meaning between the words made the young man holding two books in his hands blush.But Mr. Liu's eyes drifted up involuntarily, and the more he looked at the woman who was also flushed behind several young girls, even she was also shy, and her eyes always accidentally met.
"Please ladies... let Miss Zhou... and Xiaosheng..." He stumbled over this sentence, and the bold girl just now rubbed her chest and almost burst into laughter.Mr. Liu blushed again, he handed the book to the servant behind him, and raised his hand as a salute.This action made people see that the scholar's face was already red to the ears, and he was afraid that if he continued to turn red, he would get sick.
The prince obviously heard the voices on the street outside the window, his eyes drifted outside, his legs and feet were indeed sitting in place, and he tried to maintain an upright sitting posture.He Yunzheng didn't move his eyes, he was still eating, the prince said: "Today is Hairpin Festival, you know?" Without waiting for He Yunzheng to answer, he continued: "After dark, I will take you to see the world!"
"Thank you!" He Yunzheng said seemingly sincerely. He knew that the prince's request to let him be a companion was just a whim, and it was difficult to see how sincere he was.
The Hairpin Festival is in May. A long time ago, this festival was a day when young men and women shared their concerns. Women would pick off the hairpins from their heads and give them to whomever they liked. If the other party was also interested, they would accept the hairpins.It's just that the customs became more and more conservative later on, and most women would not leave the house easily until the time of marriage, and some families even wouldn't let women see men with different surnames.Even on this festival, not many women would give away the hairpins in their hands. Those who are willing to give out hairpins are usually women who are engaged to each other, just like Zhu'er and Young Master Liu just now.This festival has gradually evolved into a day when unmarried men and women meet, or two families who intend to get married let the two children meet.
After a while, Li Derong came back, looked at the little prince who was still sitting upright, he let out a long sigh of relief, and finally put his heart back into his stomach.All kinds of food came up slowly and were eaten by the two of them as dinner. As night fell, the prince took Li Derong and He Yunzheng to the street.
Night is the busiest time for the Hairpin Festival. There are women with light-colored veils on their faces, or women without veils, handsome men in green clothes, and children holding sugar pills in their hands.The prince and He Yunzheng in brocade clothes were quickly submerged in the crowd. He Yunzheng was behind the two of them, and he was submerged by the shadows.But there was a person standing on a high place who saw him at a glance. The person was wearing a white brocade robe, holding a white porcelain wine glass in his hand, and his black eyes fell on the bustling crowd.
Someone behind him patted him on the shoulder, "Senior brother, what are you looking at?" After the other party said this, he followed his gaze and looked down, but only saw men and women in light tulle clothes, and street vendors on shelves. A variety of colorful hairpins.He turned back to look at the other party and said, "Brother, what are you looking at?"
The man looked at the figure who was about to disappear in the crowd and smiled, "A Wan, do you want to be the emperor?" The rebellious words were just said by him. So much for him.
The young man he called Ah Wan just raised his eyebrows, raised his eyes and chuckled lightly: "Of course I want to, and I'm already planning to give it a go." After saying this, he clenched his fists, and his face was full of chatter and laughter. The smile gradually disappeared.
"I can probably stay here for a while, and I can help you as much as I can."
"Thank you, brother."
At this moment, He Yunzheng glanced back, he suddenly felt a sense of palpitation and danger, without any doubt, if he was a real fox now, he might have already run away.The steps under his feet stopped, but he continued to move forward.
The prince looked at the things in the hands of the peddler, "How do you sell this?"
"Master Zhao, I'm leaving first, goodbye." He Yunzheng walked to the side of the stall and said to the prince.
"Oh, good."
"Li Derong, pay."
"well!"
Walking alone on the long street, he didn't know anyone here, and even if the people in He Fu knew him, they would pretend not to know him.In fact, He Yunzheng originally planned to have a deal with the prince today, and spent a little effort refusing to be a companion, but now he suddenly felt a little boring.
He Yunzheng sat quietly in the carriage, frowning, and a simple package beside him.Inside were some clothes and some silver taels, which were the last things he brought out from the prime minister's mansion.
The carriage crossed the main street and entered a small alley, "Master, the place is here." The servant who drove the carriage flicked his whip one last time, and the carriage stopped at the gate of a small courtyard, and he called softly.
