Merry character
Chapter 12 The Empress Dowager's Decree
In the courtyard of Huarongju, Dobe led all the servants to stand neatly in two rows.When I got off the carriage, I immediately said loudly, "Welcome Eldest Young Master back home!"
I was slightly surprised, what kind of battle is this?I just went to Nanshan Temple for a while, and I didn't come back home after traveling far away. Why are everyone's worried eyes?Do you think I will elope with my cousin?
Before I could ask, everyone's eyes turned to Mei Jiu who got out of the car with me.I thought I would see everyone's shocking expressions, but I didn't expect that all of my servants had amazing resistance. After being surprised for a moment, they all returned to normal, and then looked at me with questioning eyes.
I took a look at Mei Jiu, and said to everyone: "This is my distinguished guest, Mr. Mei. You must serve with your heart and do not neglect."
The crowd said in unison: "Mr. Mei is good."
I nodded in satisfaction and led Mei Jiu into the living room.
The servants fetch water, those who pass handkerchiefs, those who serve tea serve tea, and those who deliver snacks deliver snacks. They are efficient and sensitive.The most important thing is not to squint, orderly, showing the level of a super-first-class servant.
I called Dobe and told him, "Everyone will be charged ten Wen a month."
Dobe responded loudly with a smile: "Yes, young master."
"Everyone, step back, there is no need to serve here for the time being."
Wait for everyone to leave.I smiled and said to Mei Jiu: "Although Ah Jiu looks good with a cold face, it's better to smile? Now that no one is here, Ah Jiu should stop keeping a straight face."
Mei Jiuqing smiled slightly, and the ice and snow melted.
I was stunned for a moment, looked away, picked up a piece of hibiscus cake and took a bite: "Mmm, it's delicious! Ah Jiu will try it too."
The slender and perfect hands are holding the snow-white pastry, and the movements are elegant, even eating is extremely beautiful.
I admire the beauties while eating, and I am in a good mood.
What a wonderful thing it is to sit with beautiful woman Mei Jiu, chat about love affairs, taste tea and wine.But in such a harmonious and beautiful atmosphere, there are people who are not harmonious.Liu Yulan came again uninvited, her eyes lit up when she saw me, and she frowned when she saw Mei Jiu.
I immediately became displeased, looked at him with a frown and said, "Third brother, this is my new friend, Mr. Mei." I warned him with my eyes to be kind to my friend.
Liu Yulan's comprehension ability was good, and she immediately adjusted her expression, returning to a gentle and jade-like appearance, put away her folding fan, and bowed to Mei Jiu: "Mr. Mei is polite."
Mei Jiu glanced at him and remained silent.I immediately pointed to Liu Yulan and said, "This is my third younger brother, he is a bit of a pretentious person, so you don't have to pay attention to him."
Liu Yulan's eyes darkened, and he called me in a calm voice: "Brother." He seemed dissatisfied with my evaluation of him.
I lay down in the armchair, and said calmly, "Third brother is free to play by himself, I am here to entertain guests."
Liu Yulan's ability to adapt is super strong, and she immediately calmed down, and said with a warm smile: "Since I am the guest of the elder brother, the younger brother should also do his best to be a landlord."
I curled my lips, ignored him, and talked to Mei Jiu myself.We chatted about unimportant topics one after another.Liu Yulan interrupted from time to time, I glared at him, but he didn't care, his good mood was ruined.
Not long after, Dobe hurried over: "Young master, someone from the palace came to announce the decree."
I couldn't help but frown. Someone from the palace announced that I would kneel down again. Not only I had to kneel down, but everyone in the family had to go out and kneel down, except for my father who had the special right of exemption from kneeling. It doesn't show how high the imperial power is.
I got up and said to Mei Jiu: "Ah Jiu is a guest, so you don't have to go out." He nodded noncommittally, as if he hadn't planned to go out for a long time.I thought to myself, what an insult to grace if such a person kneels down.
Arranging my clothes, I went out.
A pale, beardless, wrinkled old eunuch shook the dust stick in his hand, and began to proclaim the edict with that eunuch's unique drake voice.
It turned out that it was the empress dowager's oral order, not the emperor's brain twitched again, looking for someone to show off his royal yellow silk cloth.
What the old man said was very polite, and the general meaning was that the queen mother heard that I was of outstanding character and extraordinary appearance, so she invited me to have a look. The time is from nine to eleven tomorrow morning.
After thinking about it carefully, I realized that the palace knew about the meeting with my cousin at Nanshan Temple yesterday, so I went to beat him up.However, it's also strange that although I didn't deliberately hide anything, the news spread too fast.
I went back to the residence in a dull mood, and locked Liu Yulan who was following me out of the gate.Walking into the hall, he took a sip of tea.
Mei Jiu looked at me and said, "What's bothering you?" Her slender eyebrows were raised slightly, and her voice was light but full of warmth.
I looked at him, my eyes lit up, and I asked, "Ah Jiu is very skilled in martial arts, may I be able to come and go freely in the palace?"
The ink eyes were focused, revealing a puzzled look.
I sat down opposite him and sighed: "I have always had a dream to become a peerless master, to be able to enter a place where there is no one in a heavily guarded place like the palace, but I am not born to practice martial arts. If I can get to know someone like that If you are a master, you can talk to comfort yourself."
"Does Jinyu think so?" Mei Jiu's eyes were full of smiles, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curved.
I sighed again: "That's right, what to do, no talent."
Later, Mei Jiu and I talked for a long time about how I wanted to become a peerless master, and how I had to give up because of no results in hard training.In the end, I forgot the question I asked Mei Jiu at the beginning, so I still don't know if he can walk freely in the palace.
I didn't ask him this question at first because I regretted that I didn't have much talent in martial arts, but because I was wondering if I could ask him to help me when I ran away from home.
To be honest, I was not sure that I would leave smoothly.As the son of the Prime Minister of the Great Qi Dynasty, sometimes there are creatures like dark guards around, although not all the time.Let's just talk about my personal servant Duobao, he is the master Liu Chongyu specially assigned to me, he is by my side most of the time, it is really difficult to get out without anyone noticing.
****
The next day, I repeatedly told the servants in Huarongju to take good care of Mr. Mei, and then I went out to enter the palace.
At the gate of the mansion, my father's servant Duofu trotted up to me and passed a message: "Eldest young master, the master ordered you to enter the palace in his sedan chair."
Parked in front of the door is a luxurious and simple sedan chair, which is necessary for Liu Chongyu to go to court every day.
The four bearers were tall and tall, with restrained eyes, and even their appearance was very correct, none of them were ordinary people.
A long time ago, I couldn't see these ways.It wasn't until that time three years ago, when I was traveling with my father in the Phoenix Bamboo Forest, that a group of assassins ran out, and the four bearers slaughtered all directions, that I didn't know that they were the masters of Mingzang.
As soon as I boarded the sedan chair, I immediately met my father's deep eyes, I paused, and went in anyway.
It had been a long time since the assassination that I sat so close to him.
Speaking of which, he was injured that time because of my burden.And, for some reason, after that, I saw him less, and he stopped checking my homework.Later, I stopped studying homework, and he never asked.
I fretted about this for days.After that, I led Liu Yufeng and Liu Yulan to play in the mountains and rivers, plant trees and flowers, and design my Huarong Residence. Only then did I forget about that.
The sedan chair is stable and the speed is moderate, which is much more comfortable than riding in a carriage.Instead of looking at Liu Chongyu's zombie-like face, I opened the car curtain and looked outside.
On the street, many shops and stalls have opened, and sparse crowds walk through the street.
After watching for a while, I saw someone began to look over, so I lowered the curtain.
Turning around, he met Liu Chongyu's gaze, which seemed to be pensive.I blinked for no reason, and said hesitantly, "Father, what's the matter?"
He lazily looked away, and his voice did not fluctuate: "I heard that you have a new friend?"
I smiled and said in a cheerful tone: "Yes, his name is Mei Jiu. He is very good at lightness kung fu, he can fly up to the high tower of Nanshan Temple, and he is also very good-looking. I have never seen such a good-looking person."
"Have you never seen anyone prettier than him?" Liu Chongyu's eyes were a little strange.
I thought he didn't believe it, so I said: "Father will know that what I said is true when he sees it."
He stared at me for a while, then suddenly said: "Stay away from people in the Jianghu."
"Father misunderstood, he is not from the rivers and lakes." I explained.
"He told you."
"Well, he said he doesn't mess around."
Liu Chongyu snorted coldly: "Don't just believe what others say."
I opened my mouth, wanting to defend myself, but seeing his cold face, I couldn't help but stop.
There was silence, and an atmosphere that couldn't be described as weird or anything spread.
I stared at a point in front of the sedan chair, dazed.
I was slightly surprised, what kind of battle is this?I just went to Nanshan Temple for a while, and I didn't come back home after traveling far away. Why are everyone's worried eyes?Do you think I will elope with my cousin?
