The whole street froze.
Xie Ce was in a dilemma. He stared at Lou Yu blankly, but didn't react for a long while.
It was a military guard who suddenly shouted: "This is the chariot of the prince! General Xie, he called you brother-in-law, could it be Prince Qing's son?"
Xie Ce's eyes darkened.
She never expected that the one who injured her younger brother would be his brother-in-law!
As soon as Prince Qing's son entered Beijing, he had a conflict with the second son of the Houfu in the street. This matter was really difficult to handle.
Xie Ce had just ordered that this group of people be escorted into the yamen.
Now that Lou Yu is the son of Prince Qing, if he were to be escorted into the Yamen under the watchful eyes of everyone, wouldn't it make people laugh out loud?
But if you don't bet, wouldn't you still slap yourself in the face?
Which is more important, the face of the Xie family or the face of Prince Qing's son?
After weighing, Xie Ce decisively chose his own face.
He was a bit quick-witted, so he asked loudly: "His Royal Highness, may I ask why you committed murder in the street and injured Xie Mao's leg?"
It's better to strike first!
Lou Yu was stunned on the spot, his eye sockets turned red visibly, because of Xie Ce's groundless accusation, he was so sad that he almost shed tears.
"Brother-in-law, I know you have always looked down on me, but you can't tell the truth. Everyone in the street can testify to me. It was the Second Young Master who first sent people to block the way and insulted me with evil words.
"He ordered me to get out of the car as soon as he came up, and he didn't report his family name. I don't know his identity, I just think he is a rich man in the capital. He doesn't respect me, so why should I be polite to him?
"What's more, he accidentally fell off the horse and injured himself. My people didn't touch him at all. Brother-in-law, I really didn't mean it. If you don't believe me, you can ask the people in the whole street. in the eyes."
He pointed to the embarrassing sons of the family, and said, "Eldest brother-in-law, you can also ask them, I really didn't lie to you. I know you are worried about the second son, but his broken leg really has nothing to do with me." .”
Xie Ce was speechless.
Seeing his younger brother hurt and suffering just now, he was furious for a moment, and he wanted to arrest Lou Yu on impulse.
Unexpectedly, he made himself unable to get off the tiger.
Seeing this, Lou Yu said again: "Forget it, I don't want to embarrass my brother-in-law, why don't my brother-in-law take us into the yamen together. I believe my brother-in-law will definitely clear me up!"
Xie Ce: "..."
Facing the crowd's gaze, he had no choice but to say solemnly: "Everyone who fights in the market will be taken to the yamen for interrogation. Your Royal Highness, I have offended you."
Lou Yu was considerate and said: "It's okay, I don't want to cause trouble for my brother-in-law, after all, I can't let my brother-in-law bear the stigma of protecting relatives."
Xie Ce: "..."
"Brother-in-law, don't worry. In the capital, no matter who bullies me, I will never fight back. I won't cause trouble for brother-in-law."
Xie Ce took a deep breath, and told the left and right: "Confess, if Xie Mao wakes up, immediately take him to the yamen for interrogation!"
He looked deeply at Lou Yu.
But seeing Lou Yu's eyes were clear and innocent, there was a hint of apology in his eyes.
He shook his head secretly. Is this His Royal Highness really innocent or pretending to be innocent?
A group of people drove to the Yamen.
This scene is really strange.
When the son of a vassal prince enters Beijing, the first thing he does is not to go to the residence to report, but to go to the government office for interrogation.
For some reason, the news exploded, spread to the streets and alleys, and all the people in the capital talked about it.
"Aren't King Qing and Lord Xie Marquis relatives? How could the prince and Xie Erlang fight in the street?"
"Who says it's not! That's why it's so strange!"
"The eldest son has lived in Qingzhou for a long time, and he didn't know Xie Erlang at all. Xie Erlang rushed to block the way, and he didn't report his family name, so he ran into him!"
"Why did Xie Erlang block the way? What is he doing when he has nothing to do?"
"I heard that Xie Erlang insulted the prince in the street, and the prince was so angry that he confronted him."
"Then Shizi broke his leg?"
"His leg was not hit by Shizi at all, it was the horse that was frightened, and he fell down and broke himself!"
"Ah? That son is indeed innocent!"
"They're all a family, why did this happen?"
Coincidentally, the emperor thought of the vassal king's entry into Beijing, and asked his left and right: "Have the vassal king and his sons settled in Beijing?"
Chief Eunuch: "Return to Your Majesty, most of the princes and sons have been settled in the hotel, but..."
"Just what?"
The manager carefully considered and said: "It's just news from outside the palace that Prince Qing's son and Xie Jia Erlang had a dispute in the street, Xie Jia Erlang broke his leg, and Xie Jia Dalang, who is a general of the Wuwei Division, brought the son back to the yamen. "
emperor:"……"
He was silent for a long time, and then asked in a deep voice: "Aren't they in-laws? How could there be such a dispute?"
The manager hurriedly knelt down: "Your Majesty, calm down, Xu Shizi and Xie Jiaerlang are young and energetic..."
"Come on like this, is the Xie family shameless?!" The emperor angrily slapped the imperial case, "Tell Xie Xin to come and see me!"
No matter how afraid he is of the vassal king, the vassal king is also a member of their Lou family!
Master Xie Hou sat in the Yamen, and the pot came from the sky.
He was called to Chengde Hall, and on the way he asked Huang Menlang, "I don't know why Your Majesty summoned me?"
Knowing that he is a close minister of the emperor, Huang Menlang naturally sold his face and said quietly:
"Master Hou didn't even know that your son was fighting with Prince Qing's son in the street, your son accidentally broke his leg, and the son is still in the yamen for interrogation."
Thank you letter: "..."
He forcefully suppressed his anger, and said, "Dare to ask, is it Da Lang or Er Lang who broke his leg?"
Huang Menlang compared two fingers.
Xie Xin's eyes were filled with anger, this troublesome bastard!But at this juncture, the city is full of trouble!
He thanked Huang Menlang and hurried to Chengde Hall.
Seeing the emperor, he bowed down and bowed respectfully before pretending to be ignorant.
"I don't know what your majesty ordered?"
The emperor looked at him coldly, "Xie Xin, your family's Erlang had a conflict with Prince Qing's son, and your family's Dalang took the son into the yamen for interrogation. It's really good."
"Your Majesty, there is such a thing!" Xie Xin was astonished, "It is the old minister who is incapable of teaching his son, please punish him!"
Let's be nice first and then talk.
Seeing that his attitude was correct, the emperor's depression dissipated a little, and he said in a deep voice:
"The vassal king came to Beijing to celebrate the imperial concubine's birthday, so there should be no troubles. This matter was caused by Xie Erlang, but considering that he was still young and broke his leg, he was punished for a month, facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Xie Xin bowed again.
The emperor suddenly sighed: "This matter is also my negligence. Although your two families are married, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and there is little contact. As a result, the son and Xie Erlang did not know each other when they met. This caused a misunderstanding."
"Your Majesty's words are very true!" Xie Xin echoed, "Both the son and the dog are young and energetic, and collisions will inevitably occur. The old minister thinks that it is better to let the son stay in the capital for a longer time. After getting along for a long time, they will naturally be harmonious."
The emperor laughed: "Aiqing is right, we should get along more. We are all a family, why bother to go to the Yamen? You go back quickly, and bring the son into the Hou's mansion so that he can take care of him."
"The old minister obeys!"
Outside the hotel, Lou Quan was leading people to wait, when suddenly a servant woman came to report: "Madam, don't wait in the hotel, His Royal Highness is being escorted to the yamen!"
Lou Quan's brows tightened: "What's going on!"
While listening to the maid, she beckoned the servant to get into the car.Before arriving at the Yamen, she had already heard the reason.
"Ma'am, the Second Young Master's leg is broken, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to resolve."
The servant woman cried and said, "Although His Highness was not hurt, there is no guarantee that Lord Hou and the others will not resent the son and blame you, madam."
Madam's life in the Hou Mansion was already difficult, but now that this happened again, I don't know what will happen in the future.
Lou Quan calmly said: "Xie Mao almost slapped my brother in the face with the whip, should I bear it? He fell off the horse because of his own carelessness, so what does it have to do with brother?"
In the final analysis, it is just because Xie's family is not strict in teaching their children.
The disaster was caused by Xie Mao, he lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot, who is to blame?
The servant woman said: "Although this is the case, the eldest son has taken the son into the yamen, so it can be seen that he has indeed angered the son. How will the madam deal with herself in the future?"
Lou Quan's eyes concealed anger: "The two brothers bullied brother together, but it was because of His Majesty... Forget it, they never regarded me as Xie's wife, so why should I care how they treat me."
The servant woman said in despair: "Madam..."
"Needless to say, this matter is not my brother's fault. Xie Mao was disrespectful to the son in the street, and he took the lead in attacking him. He broke his leg. It is his own fault. Xie Ce shielded his brother and took him into the yamen regardless of injustice. It is foolish."
Servant: "..."
Lou Quan said in a cold voice: "Even if this matter comes up to His Majesty, it is the Xie family's fault."
The carriage went to the outside of the yamen.
Dalang Xie personally escorted his brother-in-law into the yamen. This matter was so novel that the yamen was crowded with crowds of onlookers.
The servants worked desperately to open a way for Lou Quan.
The two hundred government soldiers and Xie's guards all gathered in the yamen, and at a glance, it was so dark that it was impossible to see clearly the situation in the courtroom.
Lou Quan had no choice but to wait quietly outside the yamen.
She hasn't seen Adi for four years, and she doesn't know what Adi looks like now.
His brows and eyes could not help revealing a bit of tenderness.
In the yamen court, Lou Yu confronted several princes from aristocratic families.
These young masters had a good relationship with Xie Mao, so they naturally helped Xie Mao speak, accusing Lou Yu harshly.
"He was the one who let those reckless men take action first!"
"Yes! It was he who shot first!"
"Xie Erlang just came forward to say hello, who would have thought that he would suddenly go crazy and have someone beat me up!"
With Lou Yu's bamboo fan in his hand, he swung it over, leaving heavy red marks on the faces of several people!
Everyone: Too arrogant!
After the beating, Lou Yu was still furious: "Brother-in-law, I came to the yamen with you because I was afraid of making things difficult for you. What kind of identity do they have, how dare they treat me so disrespectfully!"
Xie Ce's headache was about to split: "...in the Yamen, don't call me that."
The Department of Martial Defense is responsible for public security in the capital, and often patrols the streets to arrest people. After arresting people, they are sent to Jingzhao Mansion for interrogation and conviction.
It sounds like it's just a yacha, but it's not.
Even the Governor of Jingzhao wanted to give the Military Guards face.
As Xie Ce was the general of the Military Guard Division, with him present, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture did not dare to speak casually.
One is General Wuwei, the head of the Hou family; the other is the son of the vassal prince, a relative of the emperor.
He can't offend anyone.
Lou Yu seemed to listen to his brother-in-law very much, and nodded obediently: "General Xie, I believe that Xie Erlang blocking the way must not be his original wish, he must be bewitched by these bastards!"
The chop suey yelled angrily: "Who are you calling chop suey!"
Lou Yu was so arrogant that he didn't pay any attention, and said directly: "General Xie, think about it, what is the relationship between our two families? You are my brother-in-law! Xie Erlang has no reason to bully me in the street, there must be a misunderstanding!"
Everyone: It seems that there is some truth to it!
The Xie family has no enmity with Prince Qing's mansion, why does Xie Erlang have to block the way and attack the prince with a whip?What is he trying to figure out!
Even Xie Ce couldn't help but fall into thinking.
Lou Yu's voice was clear, and all the people outside the yamen could hear it clearly, and they all expressed their approval.
Lou Quan smiled slightly, as long as brother wasn't bullied.
"General Xie, if Erlang wakes up, you might as well ask him to confront him. I believe he has absolutely no intention of harming me. Everything was instigated by these bastards!"
Lou Yu looked determined and looked at Xie Ce expectantly.
Although Xie Ce felt sorry for his younger brother, he could only tell his left and right: "Go and see if Xie Mao is awake."
After a while, Wu Wei came back and reported: "General, Xie Erlang woke up, but the doctor said that his right leg was broken and he should not move."
Before Xie Ce had time to speak, Lou Yu said, "Erlang is too miserable, really miserable, if he greets me, how can I misunderstand him, so... Sigh!"
His eyes were extremely sincere: "General Xie, although I am not wrong, I am willing to compensate Erlang for all the consultation fees, and I can also stay in prison for a period of time, sharing joys and sorrows with Erlang."
Everyone: "..."
Although Prince Qing's son looks arrogant and domineering, he is really kind to his family!
Xie Ce was in a dilemma.
His eyes were gloomy, and he fixed his eyes firmly on Lou Yu's handsome face.
There was no trace of hypocrisy in the young son's expression, and his sincerity was shocking.
He can be arrogant and domineering, but he can also make generous concessions, which is really a contradiction.
Xie Ce couldn't tell which of Lou Yu's words was true and which was false.
He even got angry with Xie Mao——
Why on earth are you provoking Lou Yu in the street!
At this moment, Master Xie came to the rescue in person.
As soon as his car arrived, the people were frightened by the majesty of the Marquis Mansion, and spontaneously withdrew from a road.
Lou Quan couldn't continue to watch the excitement, so he went up to greet him: "Father."
Xie Xinci said kindly, "You are also here to welcome His Royal Highness into the mansion? Not bad."
Onlookers:? ? ?
Didn't he come to the government to put pressure?But to welcome the son into the mansion?
Lou Quan smiled calmly: "The daughter-in-law is indeed here to bring the eldest son into the mansion, but brother is being detained in the yamen right now, so I'm afraid we have to wait a little longer."
"Why is Da Lang so ignorant?" Xie Xin chuckled, "Let him pick up the son, but throw the son in the yamen for official business. Look at this kid, how can he do things!"
Onlookers and others: "..."
It turned out that Xie Dalang was to welcome the son, but he had to take the son to the yamen because he had to deal with official business?
Nonsence!When they are blind!
Xie Xin can't care about face, it is serious to take the prince to the mansion as soon as possible.
He strode into the yamen, and saw the tall and straight young prince at a glance.
Immediately cupped his hands and said: "The lower official has seen His Royal Highness."
King Qing is a prince, and Xie Xin is a marquis. Although Lou Yu is only a son and has not yet taken the title, Xie Xin has done enough superficial work.
Lou Yu guessed the identity of Xie Xin, but pretended not to know: "You are?"
It happened that Lou Quanxing came over, his eyes were reddish and he said: "Brother, this is Marquis Ning En."
Her younger brother has grown up and is even more handsome than when he was a child!
Lou Quan looked at Lou Yu excitedly.
Lou Yu was even more excited than her.
God!This is the eldest sister!This is the eldest sister!
He took a few steps forward and grabbed Lou Quan's wrist, his nose was sour and his throat was tight: "Sister!"
After King Qing and Princess Qing, he felt that he had found another relative.
The exact same eyebrows and eyes reminded him of the modern elder sister who was handsome on the outside and strong on the inside.
The two siblings held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes, completely ignoring the crowd around them.
Thinking of the information obtained by Anbu, Lou Yu became even more depressed.He is such a kind-hearted elder sister, yet he is treated so harshly by the Hou family!
"Sister, how are you doing in the capital? Parents miss you very much."
Lou Yu spoke so affectionately that no one else could bear to disturb him.
It was a bit embarrassing for the letter of thanks to be left alone.
Lou Quan thought that he hadn't seen her for four years, and brother might have forgotten her, but he didn't expect that brother would be so kind to her when he saw her today.
With tears in her eyes, she replied: "I'm fine, how are your parents? How are you?"
Lou Yu was aggrieved: "We are all fine, but I am very worried when I think that sister is alone in the capital."
Xie Xin and Xie Ce: "..."
What alone?Aren't they human!
Lou Quan is strong by nature, but no matter how strong a person is, he can't help crying when faced with the care of his relatives.
Tears rolled down her face, and she hurriedly raised her hand to wipe them away.
But Lou Yu took out a handkerchief, wiped her tears gently and carefully, coaxing: "Sister, don't cry, my heart hurts when I cry."
As he spoke, he turned his head and asked, "General Xie, my sister is crying, won't you come to comfort me?"
Xie Ce's eyebrows twitched, and he stepped forward with a sullen face, and persuaded him forcefully: "Everyone is watching, don't cry."
Xie Xin also said: "You two brothers and sisters have a deep and righteous relationship, why not go back to the house first, and then tell your heartfelt words."
"This won't work." Lou Yu refused.
"Why?" Xie Xin hurriedly said, "Your Highness, don't be surprised, this matter is all a misunderstanding, one family doesn't talk about two families, how about we talk about it when we return home?"
Lou Yu gave him a strange look, as if looking at a fool.
"I mean, I can't go to the Marquis's Mansion yet, the inspection of the residence is still waiting for me."
"Oh, that's right, then go to the hotel first and then go back to the residence."
When Lou Yu saw the eldest sister, he didn't bother to play around, so he nodded in agreement.
He directly pulled Lou Quan into the palace carriage.
Huo Yan had avoided to another car by himself.
There are only Lou Yu and Lou Quan in the carriage.
"Sister, all these years, every time you write a letter, you only say a few words, and you never say anything else, but what's the problem?" Lou Yu looked worried.
If the emperor hadn't been the matchmaker back then, King Qing would not have married his daughter to Ning Enhou's mansion.
Lou Quan didn't want him to worry, so he just smiled and said, "No problem, Brother, you've been exhausted from the journey, and when you get back to the Hou Mansion, I'll ask the kitchen to prepare Yunpian Cake for you. This is your favorite food."
Lou Yu wanted to say that he didn't like Yunpian Cake anymore, but when he touched Lou Quan's expectant and eager eyes, the words came to his lips, but he couldn't say anything.
For the past four years, Lou Quan has lived alone in the capital, with no relatives (not counting the emperor), and not being respected by her husband's family. It must have been very hard, right?
The woman in front of her was only 20 years old, but the vicissitudes of life could not be concealed between her eyebrows and eyes.When he held her wrist just now, he felt that her wrist was extremely thin.
Lou Yu turned away the distress in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Sister is the best to me!"
After arriving at the residence, the government soldiers stayed near the residence, and Lou Yu only took Feng Erbi and Huo Yan to the Hou's residence.
Lou Quan married into the capital four years ago, so he had met Huo Yan, so he couldn't help being surprised: "Brother, how could he..."
"Sister, don't worry about him being a sinful slave. I'm tired and hungry. When can I get to the Hou's mansion?" Lou Yu changed the topic.
Lou Quan couldn't help but look at Huo Yan.
The young man bowed his head and raised his eyebrows, silently trailing behind him.
It's a pity that the former noble son of the capital is now reduced to a low-spirited sin slave.
Drive to the main gate of Hou Mansion.
Mrs. Ning Enhou waited outside the door with a group of family members and servants.
No matter what you think in your heart, etiquette is in place.
Lou Yu greeted each one without being rude, and then said, "Erlang accidentally broke his leg earlier, so I don't know what's going on now? Can I go and visit?"
Everyone: "..."
You really can't open which pot and which pot to lift!
Madam Hou's face twisted for a moment, she gritted her teeth, but there was still a smile on her face.
"His Highness Lao is concerned. Erlang has already taken medicine and fell asleep. The doctor said that it is not appropriate to visit for the time being."
Lou Yu said "Oh", and then took Lou Quan's arm, "Sister, let's go eat!"
Xie Xin coughed lightly: "If Your Highness doesn't dislike it, how about drinking together at the same table?"
Is this an invitation to have dinner with him?
Lou Yu nodded, "That's fine, but I have to change my clothes first, sister, take me to the bedroom."
The Hou Mansion specially prepared a courtyard for Lou Yu.
The courtyard is unique and quiet, and the living environment is good, but it is a little closer to the main courtyard, probably for the convenience of surveillance.
He took Huo Yan and Feng Erbi into the room, and under the guise of changing clothes, he whispered a few words to the two.
Finally, I said with emotion: "It's a pity for Xie Mao."
Huo Yan: "..."
If they hadn't agreed on a plan before coming to Beijing, he might really think that everything today was an accident.
But who would have known that Xie Mao's stupid behavior was just a game of Lou Yubu's.
Xie Mao has a reckless and impulsive personality, as long as someone is sent to fan the flames in his ear, he will be easily fooled.
He already looked down on King Qing, and he didn't want Lou Yu to live in the Hou's mansion, so he made his next decision under the influence of dark lines.
He wanted to take advantage of Lou Yu's arrival in Beijing, and give Lou Yu a blow in full view.
Anyway, Lou Yu is a coward, he just wants to trample this coward into the mud, so that he won't dare to step into the gate of the Hou Mansion!
Not everyone can enter the Hou Mansion!
This was a secret decision made by Xie Mao, and no one else in the Hou family knew about it.
If he knew, it would be impossible to let him out of the house.
Xie Mao had already delivered it to his door, of course Lou Yu would not be polite to him.
Lou Yu followed his plan and accompanied him in a good show that reaped the consequences.
Before entering Beijing, when Lou Yu was discussing the countermeasures with them, Huo Yan felt that he was thoughtful, but now he witnessed how Xie Mao entered the game with his own eyes, and he felt a little admiration in his heart.
Such an exhaustive ability is really shocking.
His eyes were meaningful, and Lou Yu just saw him.
Lou Yu frowned: "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong?"
Huo Yan laughed: "It's not wrong, I just feel that Xie Mao is a pity."
He is not a good man, he will not think that Xie Mao is innocent, and he will not think that Lou Yu is too scheming.
Ning Enhou's Mansion was originally a royalist faction, and perhaps the Huo family's collapse, Ning Enhou's Mansion was also a firewood for it.
In addition, they were uneasy and kind towards Lou Yu, and Lou Yu was just warning in advance to break their false mask.
Lou Yu smiled slightly: "We should stay in the capital for a while, so as not to make too much trouble, why don't we buy some supplements tomorrow and visit?"
Huo Yan smiled in his eyes: "Okay."
Feng Erbi: "..."
Wouldn't this really make the trouble even worse!
After changing his clothes, Lou Yu went to the dining hall.
When they arrived at the dining hall, Ning Enhou's family was already seated and waiting, except for Xie Mao who broke his leg.
Although Lou Yu is the eldest son, he is also a junior, so he sat at the head of Lord Xie Hou.
Xie Xin cheerfully ordered people to serve wine, and asked: "Your Highness is already fourteen? Maybe drink?"
"This won't work," Lou Yu flatly refused, "My father told me that you can only drink alcohol after waiting for me."
Thank you letter: "..."
When he didn't know that King Qing had been drinking since he was 13 years old!
He managed to suppress his anger, and was about to speak when Lou Yu said, "Sister, don't you like stewed chicken with mushrooms the most? Why don't you eat it?"
Before Lou Quan could reply, he said again: "Oh, I see, it's too far away, you can't reach it."
As he spoke, he got up and picked up several pieces of fat and tender chicken for Lou Quan, and ordered while he was picking:
"Sister, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've lost so much weight. Although the Hou's Mansion is not as good as the Wang's Mansion, it's not bad! Is it possible that you can eat less?"
Thank you letters: "..."
Lou Quan pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes were slightly red.
Brother has really grown up and can take care of others.
Lou Yu said to Xie Ce again: "Brother-in-law, I know you are busy with work, but you should take care of Sister Sister more. Look at you, you are so tall and mighty, it's not that Sister Sister takes good care of you."
Mrs. Hou: "..."
Isn't this the son she raised!What does it have to do with Lou Quan!
Xie Ce said with a straight face: "Your sister can't get fat."
"No, I remember when sister was still in her boudoir, she was much richer than she is now."
Lou Yu sighed sadly, "Sister, you have lost so much, how will I explain to my father, queen, mother and concubine after I return to Gyeongju?"
Xie Xin: Then I'm afraid you won't be able to go back!
Lou Quan smiled slightly: "Brother, I'm fine, don't worry too much, and don't make father, queen, mother and concubine worry."
"I see." Lou Yu responded, and began to bow his head to eat.
The three members of the Xie family were left alone, too embarrassed to say anything.
The dining hall suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere was a little tense for a moment.
Suddenly, Lou Yu put down the bowls and chopsticks, and in front of Xie's family, sighed deeply: "Master Hou, thank you for your hospitality."
Xie Xin was terrified, what the hell was going on? !
"Your Highness is not satisfied with the food? If not, I will order the kitchen to cook special dishes for Your Highness."
If it wasn't for face, Mrs. Hou would probably roll her eyes on the spot.
Dislike this and dislike that, after the emperor cuts down the feudal domain, let's see what else you dislike!
Lou Yu covered his face and said, "I'm not dissatisfied. It's just... I feel a little sad when I think of sister's hard work in the past four years."
The three members of the Xie family: "..."
Anyway, they are saying that their Hou Mansion is not good to Lou Quan!
Although Lou Quan was pleased that brother cared about her, he also understood the seriousness, so he said softly, "brother, I'm really fine, you don't have to worry."
"If you are really good, why does the elder brother-in-law even have a concubine?" Lou Yu's eyes were slightly red, "When I was changing clothes just now, I accidentally heard what the house servant said. Could it be that I heard it wrong?"
Xie Ce showed embarrassment.
No one wants to be accused of private affairs in the court.
Mrs. Hou said at the right time: "Your Highness doesn't know something. Your sister is weak and can't gain weight no matter how hard she is. The doctor said that she is weak and it is difficult to give birth. Your brother-in-law is the eldest son of the Hou family, and he has to bear the heavy responsibility of continuing the incense."
Lou Yu is not a gentleman: "If I remember correctly, my wife is also a brother-in-law who was born only five years after marriage? Isn't Hou Ye not the eldest son, so there is no need to continue the incense?"
Madam Hou's complexion paled instantly, and she clenched her teeth in anger.
Why is this little bastard so shameless!How did Princess Qing teach it!He actually talked about the affairs of the elders' room indiscriminately!It's too broad!
Both Xie Xin and Xie Ce couldn't keep their faces off.
Lou Yu sneered secretly, because of what the Xie family did to sister A, it was impossible for him to be kind to them.
Anyway, he is just a dandy, who can do anything to him if he says something careless?
He dared not care about his reputation, but would the Xie family dare to spread his words?
Lou Quan tugged on Lou Yu's skirt under the table, signaling him not to make too much noise.
Lou Yu got up angrily, with a sullen face on his face: "If I hadn't accidentally listened to the handyman, I wouldn't have known brother-in-law that you spoiled your concubine and killed your wife!"
Before Xie's family could speak, he directly dragged Lou Quan out of the dining hall.
After he left, Mrs. Hou finally came to her senses, she was furious, and slapped her palm on the table, "Zhuzi is rude! Shuzi is rude!"
Xie Xin was naturally angry, but he just told Xie Ce: "Before the birthday banquet, just take good care of her and don't cause trouble again."
Xie Ce agreed.
On the other end, Lou Yu led Lou Quan into the room and sat down angrily.
Lou Quan couldn't help laughing, and reached out to pinch his face, but Lou Yu quickly dodged it.
"My brother is still as cute as when I was a child."
"Sister," Lou Yu frowned, "tell me the truth, how are you doing at Xie's house?"
Lou Quan looked at him and fell silent.
At the right time, Huo Yan knocked on the door and came in. He came to Lou Yu and said in a low voice: "There are no eyes and ears outside the courtyard."
Lou Quan was a little surprised, looked at Lou Yu, then at Huo Yan, seemed to find something, couldn't help but covered his lips and smiled.
She just said, brother is still so kind, it doesn't seem like he would treat others harshly.
Lou Yu nodded to Huo Yan, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I want to have some thoughtful words with Sister."
Huo Yan left the room and stayed in the yard.
Inside the room, Lou Yu restrained his anger and said with deep eyes, "Sister, you don't have to worry about the walls having ears, just say what you have to say."
Lou Quan was stunned, the younger brother who only reached her chest in the past already wanted to protect her.
Her eyes gradually became sharper: "Brother, although I thank my family for hiding it from me, I can also see that something is wrong. This birthday celebration may not be good for you."
Lou Yu laughed, this is his eldest sister, the first sentence is still worried about his safety.
"Sister, don't worry. The moment I received the imperial edict, I already knew that the party in the capital would not be safe."
Lou Quan clenched his hands tightly, with a worried look on his eyes: "Don't be careless, Brother."
"Sister, don't talk about me, tell me about yourself first, what do you think?"
Lou Yu said bluntly, "Do you still want to continue living with Xie Ce?"
Such a scumbag, don't mind!
Lou Quan's eyes were slightly bent, and said: "Don't worry about mine in advance, yours is the most important thing."
Anyway, her life is already like this, why not think about how to solve brother's problem first.
Lou Yu sighed secretly.
Feudal ethics are harmful to people. If it was in modern times, sister would have slapped the scumbag far away. There is no need to slowly waste youth in the deep house compound.
He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then changed the subject, and said, "Sister, although it was not my fault that Xie Mao broke his leg today, I feel very sorry and want to make up for it. I'm not familiar with the capital, so it's better for you tomorrow." Accompany me out of the house to buy some supplements."
Lou Quan naturally agreed.
The two siblings talked again before resting separately.
In the early morning of the next day, after Lou Yu had finished washing, a servant of the Hou's mansion came with food.
Lou Yu couldn't help laughing, it seemed that the three of Xie's family were so angry yesterday that they didn't want to eat at the same table with him anymore.
It's a pity, he still has a lot to say.
After the servant set out food and left, Lou Yu invited Huo Yan and Feng Erbi to sit down and eat together.
"Come out later with me to buy supplements, and eat a little more." Lou Yu told the two of them.
Huo Yan ate, and Feng Erbi asked, "Why do you want to be full?"
Lou Yu knocked him on the head, "Hurry up and eat, why are there so many?"
After eating, Lou Quan came with his maid.
A group of people went to the market in a mighty way.
He said he was buying supplements for Xie Mao, but Lou Yu didn't go to the medicine store at all, instead he took Lou Quan to the biggest silver building in the capital.
"Sister, you can choose whatever you want, if you like it, I will give it to you!"
Hearing the words, the maid next to her couldn't help flattering: "Your Highness treats Madam very well, this old slave is really moved."
Lou Quan's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, obviously very happy, but he still said: "I have accepted my brother's favor, so you don't need to spend so much money, you can keep the money for yourself."
Lou Yu always kept his word, he didn't ask Lou Quan's opinion, he directly picked a white jade Liuyun hairpin, put it on for Lou Quan himself, said with satisfaction: "The white jade is flawless, it matches my sister very well."
There were other customers in the store, and they couldn't help being envious when they saw this.
That is the white jade flowing cloud hairpin!
The clerk immediately smiled all over his face: "My lord, Sheng Hui is 200 taels."
Although 200 pairs of rich and noble families in the capital are nothing, but this kind of heart alone is rare.
Countless admiring eyes fell on Lou Quan, Lou Quan didn't hold back any more, and let others look at him gracefully.
This is a gift from her brother!
May I ask which little lady does not love beauty?Naturally, Lou Quan couldn't escape the vulgarity.
The maid at the side exaggeratedly wiped her tears: "His Royal Highness and Madam are really sisters and brothers!"
Someone who recognized Lou Quan couldn't help exclaiming: "Mrs. Ning Enhou Shizi! Who is that young master?"
"It's Prince Qing's son, Mrs. Xie's younger brother!"
"The prince is so kind to his sister!"
"What's the use of that? The most important thing for a woman is to marry a good husband. If there is no husband who loves her, what's the point of being nice to her?"
The voices of the spectators around were not low, and they didn't care whether Lou Quan could hear them, anyway, they were not the ones who felt uncomfortable.
No matter how strong Lou Quan was in his heart, he couldn't help but clenched his handkerchief tightly under the watchful eyes of everyone.
"Sister, these coral earrings match you very well!"
"Sister, this jade bracelet suits you very well!"
"Sister, this pearl hairpin is too suitable for you!"
"Sister..."
Onlookers and others: "..."
The son is really rich and powerful!
Seeing that he was happy, Lou Quan didn't stop him.
In the end, all kinds of jewelry add up to a total of 300 taels!
The people around were in an uproar.
The shopkeepers of the silver building came here in person to provide Lou Yu with the best service.
But when it was time to pay the bill, Lou Yu took out a pen and paper.
The shopkeeper was dumbfounded.
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
Lou Yu took it for granted, "I'm going from Qingzhou to the capital, so I can't bring a few thousand taels with me, can I?"
The corner of the shopkeeper's mouth twitched, what are you doing with so many things if you don't have money!
He hehe said: "This shop does not accept credit."
Lou Yu glared at him, "When did I say I want to pay on credit?"
He turned around and told the maidservant: "You go to the Hou's Mansion to report, and say that I love my sister, and bring her to the silver building to buy some decent jewelry, but I don't have enough money, let the Hou's Mansion borrow some money first."
Servant: "..."
How dare she say that? !
When Lou Yu saw this, he had no choice but to say loudly: "If there is a kind-hearted person to deliver a message to the Hou Mansion for me, I am willing to pay ten taels of silver!"
Twelve taels for running an errand? !
Someone who is not afraid of the majesty of the Hou Mansion is moved.
Although ten taels is nothing in the capital, it is a surprise after all, who would despise less money?
Then the young master of good deeds ordered his servants to pass on the message.
Lou Quan understood what Lou Yu was going to do, and almost laughed.
Seeing that her jewelry is so clean, brother must have been upset and deliberately put pressure on the Houfu.
It is said that it is borrowing money from the Hou's mansion, but how could the Hou's mansion really write an IOU?
After all, she is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion, if she has to spend money from her natal brother to buy jewelry, what will others think of the Hou Mansion?Where will the face of the Hou Mansion go?
Although most of the aristocratic families who have intersected with the Hou's Mansion know that the Xie family does not want to see Lou Quan, but after all, they only whisper a few words in private, and no one will really talk about the Hou's Mansion in the open.
But now, with Lou Yu making such a fuss, the Hou Mansion is bound to become the talk of the capital.
Sure enough, when Mrs. Hou heard the news, she almost fainted from anger.
After regaining consciousness, while chanting "Zhuzi", he ordered the cashier to take out the silver immediately, and took people to move to the silver building.
She appeared in Yinlou in person, with a smile on her face, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes deepened a bit.
"Your Highness, you are being polite. Your sister is now the eldest daughter-in-law of the Marquis Mansion, so the Marquis Mansion should pay the bill. Your Highness doesn't need to spend money."
I thought Lou Yu wanted to be polite, but Lou Yu
Xie Ce was in a dilemma. He stared at Lou Yu blankly, but didn't react for a long while.
It was a military guard who suddenly shouted: "This is the chariot of the prince! General Xie, he called you brother-in-law, could it be Prince Qing's son?"
Xie Ce's eyes darkened.
She never expected that the one who injured her younger brother would be his brother-in-law!
As soon as Prince Qing's son entered Beijing, he had a conflict with the second son of the Houfu in the street. This matter was really difficult to handle.
Xie Ce had just ordered that this group of people be escorted into the yamen.
Now that Lou Yu is the son of Prince Qing, if he were to be escorted into the Yamen under the watchful eyes of everyone, wouldn't it make people laugh out loud?
But if you don't bet, wouldn't you still slap yourself in the face?
Which is more important, the face of the Xie family or the face of Prince Qing's son?
After weighing, Xie Ce decisively chose his own face.
He was a bit quick-witted, so he asked loudly: "His Royal Highness, may I ask why you committed murder in the street and injured Xie Mao's leg?"
It's better to strike first!
Lou Yu was stunned on the spot, his eye sockets turned red visibly, because of Xie Ce's groundless accusation, he was so sad that he almost shed tears.
"Brother-in-law, I know you have always looked down on me, but you can't tell the truth. Everyone in the street can testify to me. It was the Second Young Master who first sent people to block the way and insulted me with evil words.
"He ordered me to get out of the car as soon as he came up, and he didn't report his family name. I don't know his identity, I just think he is a rich man in the capital. He doesn't respect me, so why should I be polite to him?
"What's more, he accidentally fell off the horse and injured himself. My people didn't touch him at all. Brother-in-law, I really didn't mean it. If you don't believe me, you can ask the people in the whole street. in the eyes."
He pointed to the embarrassing sons of the family, and said, "Eldest brother-in-law, you can also ask them, I really didn't lie to you. I know you are worried about the second son, but his broken leg really has nothing to do with me." .”
Xie Ce was speechless.
Seeing his younger brother hurt and suffering just now, he was furious for a moment, and he wanted to arrest Lou Yu on impulse.
Unexpectedly, he made himself unable to get off the tiger.
Seeing this, Lou Yu said again: "Forget it, I don't want to embarrass my brother-in-law, why don't my brother-in-law take us into the yamen together. I believe my brother-in-law will definitely clear me up!"
Xie Ce: "..."
Facing the crowd's gaze, he had no choice but to say solemnly: "Everyone who fights in the market will be taken to the yamen for interrogation. Your Royal Highness, I have offended you."
Lou Yu was considerate and said: "It's okay, I don't want to cause trouble for my brother-in-law, after all, I can't let my brother-in-law bear the stigma of protecting relatives."
Xie Ce: "..."
"Brother-in-law, don't worry. In the capital, no matter who bullies me, I will never fight back. I won't cause trouble for brother-in-law."
Xie Ce took a deep breath, and told the left and right: "Confess, if Xie Mao wakes up, immediately take him to the yamen for interrogation!"
He looked deeply at Lou Yu.
But seeing Lou Yu's eyes were clear and innocent, there was a hint of apology in his eyes.
He shook his head secretly. Is this His Royal Highness really innocent or pretending to be innocent?
A group of people drove to the Yamen.
This scene is really strange.
When the son of a vassal prince enters Beijing, the first thing he does is not to go to the residence to report, but to go to the government office for interrogation.
For some reason, the news exploded, spread to the streets and alleys, and all the people in the capital talked about it.
"Aren't King Qing and Lord Xie Marquis relatives? How could the prince and Xie Erlang fight in the street?"
"Who says it's not! That's why it's so strange!"
"The eldest son has lived in Qingzhou for a long time, and he didn't know Xie Erlang at all. Xie Erlang rushed to block the way, and he didn't report his family name, so he ran into him!"
"Why did Xie Erlang block the way? What is he doing when he has nothing to do?"
"I heard that Xie Erlang insulted the prince in the street, and the prince was so angry that he confronted him."
"Then Shizi broke his leg?"
"His leg was not hit by Shizi at all, it was the horse that was frightened, and he fell down and broke himself!"
"Ah? That son is indeed innocent!"
"They're all a family, why did this happen?"
Coincidentally, the emperor thought of the vassal king's entry into Beijing, and asked his left and right: "Have the vassal king and his sons settled in Beijing?"
Chief Eunuch: "Return to Your Majesty, most of the princes and sons have been settled in the hotel, but..."
"Just what?"
The manager carefully considered and said: "It's just news from outside the palace that Prince Qing's son and Xie Jia Erlang had a dispute in the street, Xie Jia Erlang broke his leg, and Xie Jia Dalang, who is a general of the Wuwei Division, brought the son back to the yamen. "
emperor:"……"
He was silent for a long time, and then asked in a deep voice: "Aren't they in-laws? How could there be such a dispute?"
The manager hurriedly knelt down: "Your Majesty, calm down, Xu Shizi and Xie Jiaerlang are young and energetic..."
"Come on like this, is the Xie family shameless?!" The emperor angrily slapped the imperial case, "Tell Xie Xin to come and see me!"
No matter how afraid he is of the vassal king, the vassal king is also a member of their Lou family!
Master Xie Hou sat in the Yamen, and the pot came from the sky.
He was called to Chengde Hall, and on the way he asked Huang Menlang, "I don't know why Your Majesty summoned me?"
Knowing that he is a close minister of the emperor, Huang Menlang naturally sold his face and said quietly:
"Master Hou didn't even know that your son was fighting with Prince Qing's son in the street, your son accidentally broke his leg, and the son is still in the yamen for interrogation."
Thank you letter: "..."
He forcefully suppressed his anger, and said, "Dare to ask, is it Da Lang or Er Lang who broke his leg?"
Huang Menlang compared two fingers.
Xie Xin's eyes were filled with anger, this troublesome bastard!But at this juncture, the city is full of trouble!
He thanked Huang Menlang and hurried to Chengde Hall.
Seeing the emperor, he bowed down and bowed respectfully before pretending to be ignorant.
"I don't know what your majesty ordered?"
The emperor looked at him coldly, "Xie Xin, your family's Erlang had a conflict with Prince Qing's son, and your family's Dalang took the son into the yamen for interrogation. It's really good."
"Your Majesty, there is such a thing!" Xie Xin was astonished, "It is the old minister who is incapable of teaching his son, please punish him!"
Let's be nice first and then talk.
Seeing that his attitude was correct, the emperor's depression dissipated a little, and he said in a deep voice:
"The vassal king came to Beijing to celebrate the imperial concubine's birthday, so there should be no troubles. This matter was caused by Xie Erlang, but considering that he was still young and broke his leg, he was punished for a month, facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Xie Xin bowed again.
The emperor suddenly sighed: "This matter is also my negligence. Although your two families are married, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and there is little contact. As a result, the son and Xie Erlang did not know each other when they met. This caused a misunderstanding."
"Your Majesty's words are very true!" Xie Xin echoed, "Both the son and the dog are young and energetic, and collisions will inevitably occur. The old minister thinks that it is better to let the son stay in the capital for a longer time. After getting along for a long time, they will naturally be harmonious."
The emperor laughed: "Aiqing is right, we should get along more. We are all a family, why bother to go to the Yamen? You go back quickly, and bring the son into the Hou's mansion so that he can take care of him."
"The old minister obeys!"
Outside the hotel, Lou Quan was leading people to wait, when suddenly a servant woman came to report: "Madam, don't wait in the hotel, His Royal Highness is being escorted to the yamen!"
Lou Quan's brows tightened: "What's going on!"
While listening to the maid, she beckoned the servant to get into the car.Before arriving at the Yamen, she had already heard the reason.
"Ma'am, the Second Young Master's leg is broken, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to resolve."
The servant woman cried and said, "Although His Highness was not hurt, there is no guarantee that Lord Hou and the others will not resent the son and blame you, madam."
Madam's life in the Hou Mansion was already difficult, but now that this happened again, I don't know what will happen in the future.
Lou Quan calmly said: "Xie Mao almost slapped my brother in the face with the whip, should I bear it? He fell off the horse because of his own carelessness, so what does it have to do with brother?"
In the final analysis, it is just because Xie's family is not strict in teaching their children.
The disaster was caused by Xie Mao, he lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot, who is to blame?
The servant woman said: "Although this is the case, the eldest son has taken the son into the yamen, so it can be seen that he has indeed angered the son. How will the madam deal with herself in the future?"
Lou Quan's eyes concealed anger: "The two brothers bullied brother together, but it was because of His Majesty... Forget it, they never regarded me as Xie's wife, so why should I care how they treat me."
The servant woman said in despair: "Madam..."
"Needless to say, this matter is not my brother's fault. Xie Mao was disrespectful to the son in the street, and he took the lead in attacking him. He broke his leg. It is his own fault. Xie Ce shielded his brother and took him into the yamen regardless of injustice. It is foolish."
Servant: "..."
Lou Quan said in a cold voice: "Even if this matter comes up to His Majesty, it is the Xie family's fault."
The carriage went to the outside of the yamen.
Dalang Xie personally escorted his brother-in-law into the yamen. This matter was so novel that the yamen was crowded with crowds of onlookers.
The servants worked desperately to open a way for Lou Quan.
The two hundred government soldiers and Xie's guards all gathered in the yamen, and at a glance, it was so dark that it was impossible to see clearly the situation in the courtroom.
Lou Quan had no choice but to wait quietly outside the yamen.
She hasn't seen Adi for four years, and she doesn't know what Adi looks like now.
His brows and eyes could not help revealing a bit of tenderness.
In the yamen court, Lou Yu confronted several princes from aristocratic families.
These young masters had a good relationship with Xie Mao, so they naturally helped Xie Mao speak, accusing Lou Yu harshly.
"He was the one who let those reckless men take action first!"
"Yes! It was he who shot first!"
"Xie Erlang just came forward to say hello, who would have thought that he would suddenly go crazy and have someone beat me up!"
With Lou Yu's bamboo fan in his hand, he swung it over, leaving heavy red marks on the faces of several people!
Everyone: Too arrogant!
After the beating, Lou Yu was still furious: "Brother-in-law, I came to the yamen with you because I was afraid of making things difficult for you. What kind of identity do they have, how dare they treat me so disrespectfully!"
Xie Ce's headache was about to split: "...in the Yamen, don't call me that."
The Department of Martial Defense is responsible for public security in the capital, and often patrols the streets to arrest people. After arresting people, they are sent to Jingzhao Mansion for interrogation and conviction.
It sounds like it's just a yacha, but it's not.
Even the Governor of Jingzhao wanted to give the Military Guards face.
As Xie Ce was the general of the Military Guard Division, with him present, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture did not dare to speak casually.
One is General Wuwei, the head of the Hou family; the other is the son of the vassal prince, a relative of the emperor.
He can't offend anyone.
Lou Yu seemed to listen to his brother-in-law very much, and nodded obediently: "General Xie, I believe that Xie Erlang blocking the way must not be his original wish, he must be bewitched by these bastards!"
The chop suey yelled angrily: "Who are you calling chop suey!"
Lou Yu was so arrogant that he didn't pay any attention, and said directly: "General Xie, think about it, what is the relationship between our two families? You are my brother-in-law! Xie Erlang has no reason to bully me in the street, there must be a misunderstanding!"
Everyone: It seems that there is some truth to it!
The Xie family has no enmity with Prince Qing's mansion, why does Xie Erlang have to block the way and attack the prince with a whip?What is he trying to figure out!
Even Xie Ce couldn't help but fall into thinking.
Lou Yu's voice was clear, and all the people outside the yamen could hear it clearly, and they all expressed their approval.
Lou Quan smiled slightly, as long as brother wasn't bullied.
"General Xie, if Erlang wakes up, you might as well ask him to confront him. I believe he has absolutely no intention of harming me. Everything was instigated by these bastards!"
Lou Yu looked determined and looked at Xie Ce expectantly.
Although Xie Ce felt sorry for his younger brother, he could only tell his left and right: "Go and see if Xie Mao is awake."
After a while, Wu Wei came back and reported: "General, Xie Erlang woke up, but the doctor said that his right leg was broken and he should not move."
Before Xie Ce had time to speak, Lou Yu said, "Erlang is too miserable, really miserable, if he greets me, how can I misunderstand him, so... Sigh!"
His eyes were extremely sincere: "General Xie, although I am not wrong, I am willing to compensate Erlang for all the consultation fees, and I can also stay in prison for a period of time, sharing joys and sorrows with Erlang."
Everyone: "..."
Although Prince Qing's son looks arrogant and domineering, he is really kind to his family!
Xie Ce was in a dilemma.
His eyes were gloomy, and he fixed his eyes firmly on Lou Yu's handsome face.
There was no trace of hypocrisy in the young son's expression, and his sincerity was shocking.
He can be arrogant and domineering, but he can also make generous concessions, which is really a contradiction.
Xie Ce couldn't tell which of Lou Yu's words was true and which was false.
He even got angry with Xie Mao——
Why on earth are you provoking Lou Yu in the street!
At this moment, Master Xie came to the rescue in person.
As soon as his car arrived, the people were frightened by the majesty of the Marquis Mansion, and spontaneously withdrew from a road.
Lou Quan couldn't continue to watch the excitement, so he went up to greet him: "Father."
Xie Xinci said kindly, "You are also here to welcome His Royal Highness into the mansion? Not bad."
Onlookers:? ? ?
Didn't he come to the government to put pressure?But to welcome the son into the mansion?
Lou Quan smiled calmly: "The daughter-in-law is indeed here to bring the eldest son into the mansion, but brother is being detained in the yamen right now, so I'm afraid we have to wait a little longer."
"Why is Da Lang so ignorant?" Xie Xin chuckled, "Let him pick up the son, but throw the son in the yamen for official business. Look at this kid, how can he do things!"
Onlookers and others: "..."
It turned out that Xie Dalang was to welcome the son, but he had to take the son to the yamen because he had to deal with official business?
Nonsence!When they are blind!
Xie Xin can't care about face, it is serious to take the prince to the mansion as soon as possible.
He strode into the yamen, and saw the tall and straight young prince at a glance.
Immediately cupped his hands and said: "The lower official has seen His Royal Highness."
King Qing is a prince, and Xie Xin is a marquis. Although Lou Yu is only a son and has not yet taken the title, Xie Xin has done enough superficial work.
Lou Yu guessed the identity of Xie Xin, but pretended not to know: "You are?"
It happened that Lou Quanxing came over, his eyes were reddish and he said: "Brother, this is Marquis Ning En."
Her younger brother has grown up and is even more handsome than when he was a child!
Lou Quan looked at Lou Yu excitedly.
Lou Yu was even more excited than her.
God!This is the eldest sister!This is the eldest sister!
He took a few steps forward and grabbed Lou Quan's wrist, his nose was sour and his throat was tight: "Sister!"
After King Qing and Princess Qing, he felt that he had found another relative.
The exact same eyebrows and eyes reminded him of the modern elder sister who was handsome on the outside and strong on the inside.
The two siblings held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes, completely ignoring the crowd around them.
Thinking of the information obtained by Anbu, Lou Yu became even more depressed.He is such a kind-hearted elder sister, yet he is treated so harshly by the Hou family!
"Sister, how are you doing in the capital? Parents miss you very much."
Lou Yu spoke so affectionately that no one else could bear to disturb him.
It was a bit embarrassing for the letter of thanks to be left alone.
Lou Quan thought that he hadn't seen her for four years, and brother might have forgotten her, but he didn't expect that brother would be so kind to her when he saw her today.
With tears in her eyes, she replied: "I'm fine, how are your parents? How are you?"
Lou Yu was aggrieved: "We are all fine, but I am very worried when I think that sister is alone in the capital."
Xie Xin and Xie Ce: "..."
What alone?Aren't they human!
Lou Quan is strong by nature, but no matter how strong a person is, he can't help crying when faced with the care of his relatives.
Tears rolled down her face, and she hurriedly raised her hand to wipe them away.
But Lou Yu took out a handkerchief, wiped her tears gently and carefully, coaxing: "Sister, don't cry, my heart hurts when I cry."
As he spoke, he turned his head and asked, "General Xie, my sister is crying, won't you come to comfort me?"
Xie Ce's eyebrows twitched, and he stepped forward with a sullen face, and persuaded him forcefully: "Everyone is watching, don't cry."
Xie Xin also said: "You two brothers and sisters have a deep and righteous relationship, why not go back to the house first, and then tell your heartfelt words."
"This won't work." Lou Yu refused.
"Why?" Xie Xin hurriedly said, "Your Highness, don't be surprised, this matter is all a misunderstanding, one family doesn't talk about two families, how about we talk about it when we return home?"
Lou Yu gave him a strange look, as if looking at a fool.
"I mean, I can't go to the Marquis's Mansion yet, the inspection of the residence is still waiting for me."
"Oh, that's right, then go to the hotel first and then go back to the residence."
When Lou Yu saw the eldest sister, he didn't bother to play around, so he nodded in agreement.
He directly pulled Lou Quan into the palace carriage.
Huo Yan had avoided to another car by himself.
There are only Lou Yu and Lou Quan in the carriage.
"Sister, all these years, every time you write a letter, you only say a few words, and you never say anything else, but what's the problem?" Lou Yu looked worried.
If the emperor hadn't been the matchmaker back then, King Qing would not have married his daughter to Ning Enhou's mansion.
Lou Quan didn't want him to worry, so he just smiled and said, "No problem, Brother, you've been exhausted from the journey, and when you get back to the Hou Mansion, I'll ask the kitchen to prepare Yunpian Cake for you. This is your favorite food."
Lou Yu wanted to say that he didn't like Yunpian Cake anymore, but when he touched Lou Quan's expectant and eager eyes, the words came to his lips, but he couldn't say anything.
For the past four years, Lou Quan has lived alone in the capital, with no relatives (not counting the emperor), and not being respected by her husband's family. It must have been very hard, right?
The woman in front of her was only 20 years old, but the vicissitudes of life could not be concealed between her eyebrows and eyes.When he held her wrist just now, he felt that her wrist was extremely thin.
Lou Yu turned away the distress in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Sister is the best to me!"
After arriving at the residence, the government soldiers stayed near the residence, and Lou Yu only took Feng Erbi and Huo Yan to the Hou's residence.
Lou Quan married into the capital four years ago, so he had met Huo Yan, so he couldn't help being surprised: "Brother, how could he..."
"Sister, don't worry about him being a sinful slave. I'm tired and hungry. When can I get to the Hou's mansion?" Lou Yu changed the topic.
Lou Quan couldn't help but look at Huo Yan.
The young man bowed his head and raised his eyebrows, silently trailing behind him.
It's a pity that the former noble son of the capital is now reduced to a low-spirited sin slave.
Drive to the main gate of Hou Mansion.
Mrs. Ning Enhou waited outside the door with a group of family members and servants.
No matter what you think in your heart, etiquette is in place.
Lou Yu greeted each one without being rude, and then said, "Erlang accidentally broke his leg earlier, so I don't know what's going on now? Can I go and visit?"
Everyone: "..."
You really can't open which pot and which pot to lift!
Madam Hou's face twisted for a moment, she gritted her teeth, but there was still a smile on her face.
"His Highness Lao is concerned. Erlang has already taken medicine and fell asleep. The doctor said that it is not appropriate to visit for the time being."
Lou Yu said "Oh", and then took Lou Quan's arm, "Sister, let's go eat!"
Xie Xin coughed lightly: "If Your Highness doesn't dislike it, how about drinking together at the same table?"
Is this an invitation to have dinner with him?
Lou Yu nodded, "That's fine, but I have to change my clothes first, sister, take me to the bedroom."
The Hou Mansion specially prepared a courtyard for Lou Yu.
The courtyard is unique and quiet, and the living environment is good, but it is a little closer to the main courtyard, probably for the convenience of surveillance.
He took Huo Yan and Feng Erbi into the room, and under the guise of changing clothes, he whispered a few words to the two.
Finally, I said with emotion: "It's a pity for Xie Mao."
Huo Yan: "..."
If they hadn't agreed on a plan before coming to Beijing, he might really think that everything today was an accident.
But who would have known that Xie Mao's stupid behavior was just a game of Lou Yubu's.
Xie Mao has a reckless and impulsive personality, as long as someone is sent to fan the flames in his ear, he will be easily fooled.
He already looked down on King Qing, and he didn't want Lou Yu to live in the Hou's mansion, so he made his next decision under the influence of dark lines.
He wanted to take advantage of Lou Yu's arrival in Beijing, and give Lou Yu a blow in full view.
Anyway, Lou Yu is a coward, he just wants to trample this coward into the mud, so that he won't dare to step into the gate of the Hou Mansion!
Not everyone can enter the Hou Mansion!
This was a secret decision made by Xie Mao, and no one else in the Hou family knew about it.
If he knew, it would be impossible to let him out of the house.
Xie Mao had already delivered it to his door, of course Lou Yu would not be polite to him.
Lou Yu followed his plan and accompanied him in a good show that reaped the consequences.
Before entering Beijing, when Lou Yu was discussing the countermeasures with them, Huo Yan felt that he was thoughtful, but now he witnessed how Xie Mao entered the game with his own eyes, and he felt a little admiration in his heart.
Such an exhaustive ability is really shocking.
His eyes were meaningful, and Lou Yu just saw him.
Lou Yu frowned: "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong?"
Huo Yan laughed: "It's not wrong, I just feel that Xie Mao is a pity."
He is not a good man, he will not think that Xie Mao is innocent, and he will not think that Lou Yu is too scheming.
Ning Enhou's Mansion was originally a royalist faction, and perhaps the Huo family's collapse, Ning Enhou's Mansion was also a firewood for it.
In addition, they were uneasy and kind towards Lou Yu, and Lou Yu was just warning in advance to break their false mask.
Lou Yu smiled slightly: "We should stay in the capital for a while, so as not to make too much trouble, why don't we buy some supplements tomorrow and visit?"
Huo Yan smiled in his eyes: "Okay."
Feng Erbi: "..."
Wouldn't this really make the trouble even worse!
After changing his clothes, Lou Yu went to the dining hall.
When they arrived at the dining hall, Ning Enhou's family was already seated and waiting, except for Xie Mao who broke his leg.
Although Lou Yu is the eldest son, he is also a junior, so he sat at the head of Lord Xie Hou.
Xie Xin cheerfully ordered people to serve wine, and asked: "Your Highness is already fourteen? Maybe drink?"
"This won't work," Lou Yu flatly refused, "My father told me that you can only drink alcohol after waiting for me."
Thank you letter: "..."
When he didn't know that King Qing had been drinking since he was 13 years old!
He managed to suppress his anger, and was about to speak when Lou Yu said, "Sister, don't you like stewed chicken with mushrooms the most? Why don't you eat it?"
Before Lou Quan could reply, he said again: "Oh, I see, it's too far away, you can't reach it."
As he spoke, he got up and picked up several pieces of fat and tender chicken for Lou Quan, and ordered while he was picking:
"Sister, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've lost so much weight. Although the Hou's Mansion is not as good as the Wang's Mansion, it's not bad! Is it possible that you can eat less?"
Thank you letters: "..."
Lou Quan pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes were slightly red.
Brother has really grown up and can take care of others.
Lou Yu said to Xie Ce again: "Brother-in-law, I know you are busy with work, but you should take care of Sister Sister more. Look at you, you are so tall and mighty, it's not that Sister Sister takes good care of you."
Mrs. Hou: "..."
Isn't this the son she raised!What does it have to do with Lou Quan!
Xie Ce said with a straight face: "Your sister can't get fat."
"No, I remember when sister was still in her boudoir, she was much richer than she is now."
Lou Yu sighed sadly, "Sister, you have lost so much, how will I explain to my father, queen, mother and concubine after I return to Gyeongju?"
Xie Xin: Then I'm afraid you won't be able to go back!
Lou Quan smiled slightly: "Brother, I'm fine, don't worry too much, and don't make father, queen, mother and concubine worry."
"I see." Lou Yu responded, and began to bow his head to eat.
The three members of the Xie family were left alone, too embarrassed to say anything.
The dining hall suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere was a little tense for a moment.
Suddenly, Lou Yu put down the bowls and chopsticks, and in front of Xie's family, sighed deeply: "Master Hou, thank you for your hospitality."
Xie Xin was terrified, what the hell was going on? !
"Your Highness is not satisfied with the food? If not, I will order the kitchen to cook special dishes for Your Highness."
If it wasn't for face, Mrs. Hou would probably roll her eyes on the spot.
Dislike this and dislike that, after the emperor cuts down the feudal domain, let's see what else you dislike!
Lou Yu covered his face and said, "I'm not dissatisfied. It's just... I feel a little sad when I think of sister's hard work in the past four years."
The three members of the Xie family: "..."
Anyway, they are saying that their Hou Mansion is not good to Lou Quan!
Although Lou Quan was pleased that brother cared about her, he also understood the seriousness, so he said softly, "brother, I'm really fine, you don't have to worry."
"If you are really good, why does the elder brother-in-law even have a concubine?" Lou Yu's eyes were slightly red, "When I was changing clothes just now, I accidentally heard what the house servant said. Could it be that I heard it wrong?"
Xie Ce showed embarrassment.
No one wants to be accused of private affairs in the court.
Mrs. Hou said at the right time: "Your Highness doesn't know something. Your sister is weak and can't gain weight no matter how hard she is. The doctor said that she is weak and it is difficult to give birth. Your brother-in-law is the eldest son of the Hou family, and he has to bear the heavy responsibility of continuing the incense."
Lou Yu is not a gentleman: "If I remember correctly, my wife is also a brother-in-law who was born only five years after marriage? Isn't Hou Ye not the eldest son, so there is no need to continue the incense?"
Madam Hou's complexion paled instantly, and she clenched her teeth in anger.
Why is this little bastard so shameless!How did Princess Qing teach it!He actually talked about the affairs of the elders' room indiscriminately!It's too broad!
Both Xie Xin and Xie Ce couldn't keep their faces off.
Lou Yu sneered secretly, because of what the Xie family did to sister A, it was impossible for him to be kind to them.
Anyway, he is just a dandy, who can do anything to him if he says something careless?
He dared not care about his reputation, but would the Xie family dare to spread his words?
Lou Quan tugged on Lou Yu's skirt under the table, signaling him not to make too much noise.
Lou Yu got up angrily, with a sullen face on his face: "If I hadn't accidentally listened to the handyman, I wouldn't have known brother-in-law that you spoiled your concubine and killed your wife!"
Before Xie's family could speak, he directly dragged Lou Quan out of the dining hall.
After he left, Mrs. Hou finally came to her senses, she was furious, and slapped her palm on the table, "Zhuzi is rude! Shuzi is rude!"
Xie Xin was naturally angry, but he just told Xie Ce: "Before the birthday banquet, just take good care of her and don't cause trouble again."
Xie Ce agreed.
On the other end, Lou Yu led Lou Quan into the room and sat down angrily.
Lou Quan couldn't help laughing, and reached out to pinch his face, but Lou Yu quickly dodged it.
"My brother is still as cute as when I was a child."
"Sister," Lou Yu frowned, "tell me the truth, how are you doing at Xie's house?"
Lou Quan looked at him and fell silent.
At the right time, Huo Yan knocked on the door and came in. He came to Lou Yu and said in a low voice: "There are no eyes and ears outside the courtyard."
Lou Quan was a little surprised, looked at Lou Yu, then at Huo Yan, seemed to find something, couldn't help but covered his lips and smiled.
She just said, brother is still so kind, it doesn't seem like he would treat others harshly.
Lou Yu nodded to Huo Yan, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I want to have some thoughtful words with Sister."
Huo Yan left the room and stayed in the yard.
Inside the room, Lou Yu restrained his anger and said with deep eyes, "Sister, you don't have to worry about the walls having ears, just say what you have to say."
Lou Quan was stunned, the younger brother who only reached her chest in the past already wanted to protect her.
Her eyes gradually became sharper: "Brother, although I thank my family for hiding it from me, I can also see that something is wrong. This birthday celebration may not be good for you."
Lou Yu laughed, this is his eldest sister, the first sentence is still worried about his safety.
"Sister, don't worry. The moment I received the imperial edict, I already knew that the party in the capital would not be safe."
Lou Quan clenched his hands tightly, with a worried look on his eyes: "Don't be careless, Brother."
"Sister, don't talk about me, tell me about yourself first, what do you think?"
Lou Yu said bluntly, "Do you still want to continue living with Xie Ce?"
Such a scumbag, don't mind!
Lou Quan's eyes were slightly bent, and said: "Don't worry about mine in advance, yours is the most important thing."
Anyway, her life is already like this, why not think about how to solve brother's problem first.
Lou Yu sighed secretly.
Feudal ethics are harmful to people. If it was in modern times, sister would have slapped the scumbag far away. There is no need to slowly waste youth in the deep house compound.
He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then changed the subject, and said, "Sister, although it was not my fault that Xie Mao broke his leg today, I feel very sorry and want to make up for it. I'm not familiar with the capital, so it's better for you tomorrow." Accompany me out of the house to buy some supplements."
Lou Quan naturally agreed.
The two siblings talked again before resting separately.
In the early morning of the next day, after Lou Yu had finished washing, a servant of the Hou's mansion came with food.
Lou Yu couldn't help laughing, it seemed that the three of Xie's family were so angry yesterday that they didn't want to eat at the same table with him anymore.
It's a pity, he still has a lot to say.
After the servant set out food and left, Lou Yu invited Huo Yan and Feng Erbi to sit down and eat together.
"Come out later with me to buy supplements, and eat a little more." Lou Yu told the two of them.
Huo Yan ate, and Feng Erbi asked, "Why do you want to be full?"
Lou Yu knocked him on the head, "Hurry up and eat, why are there so many?"
After eating, Lou Quan came with his maid.
A group of people went to the market in a mighty way.
He said he was buying supplements for Xie Mao, but Lou Yu didn't go to the medicine store at all, instead he took Lou Quan to the biggest silver building in the capital.
"Sister, you can choose whatever you want, if you like it, I will give it to you!"
Hearing the words, the maid next to her couldn't help flattering: "Your Highness treats Madam very well, this old slave is really moved."
Lou Quan's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, obviously very happy, but he still said: "I have accepted my brother's favor, so you don't need to spend so much money, you can keep the money for yourself."
Lou Yu always kept his word, he didn't ask Lou Quan's opinion, he directly picked a white jade Liuyun hairpin, put it on for Lou Quan himself, said with satisfaction: "The white jade is flawless, it matches my sister very well."
There were other customers in the store, and they couldn't help being envious when they saw this.
That is the white jade flowing cloud hairpin!
The clerk immediately smiled all over his face: "My lord, Sheng Hui is 200 taels."
Although 200 pairs of rich and noble families in the capital are nothing, but this kind of heart alone is rare.
Countless admiring eyes fell on Lou Quan, Lou Quan didn't hold back any more, and let others look at him gracefully.
This is a gift from her brother!
May I ask which little lady does not love beauty?Naturally, Lou Quan couldn't escape the vulgarity.
The maid at the side exaggeratedly wiped her tears: "His Royal Highness and Madam are really sisters and brothers!"
Someone who recognized Lou Quan couldn't help exclaiming: "Mrs. Ning Enhou Shizi! Who is that young master?"
"It's Prince Qing's son, Mrs. Xie's younger brother!"
"The prince is so kind to his sister!"
"What's the use of that? The most important thing for a woman is to marry a good husband. If there is no husband who loves her, what's the point of being nice to her?"
The voices of the spectators around were not low, and they didn't care whether Lou Quan could hear them, anyway, they were not the ones who felt uncomfortable.
No matter how strong Lou Quan was in his heart, he couldn't help but clenched his handkerchief tightly under the watchful eyes of everyone.
"Sister, these coral earrings match you very well!"
"Sister, this jade bracelet suits you very well!"
"Sister, this pearl hairpin is too suitable for you!"
"Sister..."
Onlookers and others: "..."
The son is really rich and powerful!
Seeing that he was happy, Lou Quan didn't stop him.
In the end, all kinds of jewelry add up to a total of 300 taels!
The people around were in an uproar.
The shopkeepers of the silver building came here in person to provide Lou Yu with the best service.
But when it was time to pay the bill, Lou Yu took out a pen and paper.
The shopkeeper was dumbfounded.
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
Lou Yu took it for granted, "I'm going from Qingzhou to the capital, so I can't bring a few thousand taels with me, can I?"
The corner of the shopkeeper's mouth twitched, what are you doing with so many things if you don't have money!
He hehe said: "This shop does not accept credit."
Lou Yu glared at him, "When did I say I want to pay on credit?"
He turned around and told the maidservant: "You go to the Hou's Mansion to report, and say that I love my sister, and bring her to the silver building to buy some decent jewelry, but I don't have enough money, let the Hou's Mansion borrow some money first."
Servant: "..."
How dare she say that? !
When Lou Yu saw this, he had no choice but to say loudly: "If there is a kind-hearted person to deliver a message to the Hou Mansion for me, I am willing to pay ten taels of silver!"
Twelve taels for running an errand? !
Someone who is not afraid of the majesty of the Hou Mansion is moved.
Although ten taels is nothing in the capital, it is a surprise after all, who would despise less money?
Then the young master of good deeds ordered his servants to pass on the message.
Lou Quan understood what Lou Yu was going to do, and almost laughed.
Seeing that her jewelry is so clean, brother must have been upset and deliberately put pressure on the Houfu.
It is said that it is borrowing money from the Hou's mansion, but how could the Hou's mansion really write an IOU?
After all, she is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion, if she has to spend money from her natal brother to buy jewelry, what will others think of the Hou Mansion?Where will the face of the Hou Mansion go?
Although most of the aristocratic families who have intersected with the Hou's Mansion know that the Xie family does not want to see Lou Quan, but after all, they only whisper a few words in private, and no one will really talk about the Hou's Mansion in the open.
But now, with Lou Yu making such a fuss, the Hou Mansion is bound to become the talk of the capital.
Sure enough, when Mrs. Hou heard the news, she almost fainted from anger.
After regaining consciousness, while chanting "Zhuzi", he ordered the cashier to take out the silver immediately, and took people to move to the silver building.
She appeared in Yinlou in person, with a smile on her face, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes deepened a bit.
"Your Highness, you are being polite. Your sister is now the eldest daughter-in-law of the Marquis Mansion, so the Marquis Mansion should pay the bill. Your Highness doesn't need to spend money."
I thought Lou Yu wanted to be polite, but Lou Yu
