[Red Chamber] Dai Yu became the favorite of the Song Dynasty

Everyone didn't know what Master Jingyi was going to say to Daiyu when they met by chance, even Daiyu herself couldn't figure it out: "Sir and mother, please wait for me in the courtyard first."

Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Lin went out first.

Master Jingyi looked at Daiyu quietly, and after a long time he said, "May I ask where the princess is from?"

Daiyu was even more confused: "Come from home."

"Oh? Where is home?"

"The Hayashi family in Tokyo."

"I'm afraid not. The princess is not from Tokyo, let alone a citizen of the Song Dynasty. The princess came from the heaven." Master Jingyi explained the mystery, and Daiyu was shocked.

"Master, you..."

"Princess don't worry, I won't reveal your identity. It's just that when the time comes, the princess still has to return to the heaven. Being in love with the human world will damage the spirit of immortality."

Daiyu also had doubts about Master Jingyi's identity: "Who is the master? I have been in the world for so long, and I have never met anyone who can recognize my real body."

Master Jingyi said with a kind eyebrow and a kind smile: "You can't say anything, you can't say anything. Princess go..."

Daiyu couldn't ask for a while, so she went out to find her mother and Mr. Zhou. Anyway, Master Jingyi's temple is here, so are you afraid that he might escape?Ask again later.

As soon as she got home, Daiyu asked Qiu'er's father to invite Lu Qingzhou and Li Qingzhao. Mr. Zhou came to visit, so the old people still wanted to see each other.

In order to repay Mr. Zhou's kindness, Lu Qingzhou gave Mr. Zhou a few precious books brought from the villa: "These books record the rare and rare plants in the world today, and may be of some benefit to Mr., please accept them."

Mr. Zhou likes to tinker with strange things the most in his life, and he immediately regards these classics as treasures: "These are all treasures, are you really willing to give them to me?"

Lu Qingzhou: "Sir, you saved my life, so I should repay you for this."

Mr. Zhou was overjoyed: "Very good, very good, then I will be disrespectful."

Mr. Zhou was honored as the honored guest, and the Lin family entertained him with good wine and good food.Lu Qingzhou poured the first glass of wine for Mr. Zhou, but Mr. Zhou got up and walked to the door, and poured all the wine in the glass: "This first glass is a toast to Yan Shu."

Mr. Zhou's acquaintance with everyone was a match made by Yan Shu, but now that the lord is gone, there is nothing to regret.

During the dinner, Mr. Zhou suggested: "Why don't we go to Yan Mansion after dinner, maybe Madam Yan needs help."

Daiyu often went to the Yan Mansion, and she helped everything she could, but in order to live up to Mr. Zhou's intentions, she still agreed with the proposal.

Lu Qingzhou and Daiyu accompanied Mr. Zhou to the Yan Mansion, but Qingzhao said goodbye because he still had something to do in the private school.

On the way, Daiyu told Mr. Zhou that Yan Shu's youngest daughter, Yan Xu, was studying in Qingzhao's private school, and had grown a lot recently.Mr. Zhou nodded in praise: "Girls also need to study in order to be successful in the world. Like you and Ms. Li, be a free-spirited and open-minded person."

Daiyu: "Mr. is flattering us, and we will inevitably fall into the vulgar." Daiyu recalled Master Jingyi's words, and asked Mr. Zhou: "Sir, do you know the origin of Master Jingyi?"

"It's just a monk. There's no history. What? What did he tell you?" Mr. Zhou was curious.

Daiyu saw that Mr. Zhou couldn't ask, so she prevaricated: "I didn't say anything, just curious why Master became a monk."

"The past is like a passing cloud, why bother to ask again."

"Sir is right."

When we arrived at Yan Mansion, Mrs. Yan was embroidering.

A servant reported a visitor, Madam Yan quickly put down her work and got up to serve tea.

Mr. Zhou: "Ma'am, stay safe!"

Mrs. Yan hasn't seen Mr. Zhou for a long time: "Why did Mr. come to Tokyo?"

"Visiting an old friend, I happened to meet the princess, so I came to see everyone."

"So that's how it is. Mister is a gentleman, and he is more energetic than before."

"Ma'am, it's amazing. An old bone can't talk about spirit." Mr. Zhou looked around, and the mansion was indeed not as lively as it was when Mr. Yan was there.

Mrs. Yan is already in good spirits, taking care of the house and the courtyard every day, teaching the children, living a fulfilling life.The grace of the official family has taken extra care of Yan's family. In addition to allowances, they also make up for the children's tuition every month.Daiyu also often sent money and clothes to the mansion, and she would even send melons, fruits and vegetables newly grown in the field.

It's just that Mrs. Yan didn't like to be lively since her husband's death, and she didn't go out with her relatives and friends outside, much less like holding gatherings in the past, her life was very peaceful.

Mr. Zhou handed over the bank note he was carrying to Mrs. Yan: "I have a little heart, Madam, don't shirk. I am a life-and-death friend with Mr. Yan, and I feel ashamed for not helping my lord when he was in trouble."

Daiyu and Mrs. Yan were very surprised. Mr. Zhou is an outsider, so where did he get so much money?

Mrs. Yan: "I can't accept Mr.'s money. But I still have to ask, why do you have so many bank notes?"

Mr. Zhou replied frankly: "Of course it is robbing the rich and helping the poor. Don't worry, it's not a bad thing to kill and set fires, but it's just charging more for the rich when they see a doctor."

"It's also the hard work of my husband, so please keep it." Mrs. Yan refused to take it.

"In the future, all young ladies and gentlemen in the mansion will marry, so let's regard it as the dowry gift I prepared for the children."

Daiyu admired Mr. Zhou's long-term thinking, and even planned things seven or eight years later.Daiyu knew that this fee was really not enough for Madam Yan, so she advised Madam: "Madam should not resign the gift money that Mr. gave to the children, it is better to accept Mr.'s heart."

Mrs. Yan: "I know that you have good intentions. You have already helped me a lot. There is no need to spend so much money. I have plans for the children's affairs in the future. Don't make things difficult for me, sir."

Mr. Zhou didn't want to force others to make things difficult for him, so he didn't say anything else.

After leaving Yan's house, Mr. Zhou handed the silver bill to Daiyu: "I have traveled all over the world, and I don't know if I will have the chance to see you again. Put this with you, and help Madam from time to time, she may be more willing to accept your kindness."

Daiyu took the bank note: "Don't worry, sir, I will live up to your entrustment, and I will take good care of my wife's family."

Mr. Zhou: "It's getting late, I'm going back to the temple for the night, and I'm going out of town tomorrow."

Daiyu and Lu Qingzhou bid farewell to Mr. Zhou.

After so many turmoil, Lu Qingzhou never mentioned the matter of engagement to Daiyu again, and even the glass of wedding wine that he promised to bid farewell to Zizhan felt a little lacking in confidence.He wanted to wait for Daiyu to mention it herself, but if it goes on like this, Daiyu might not remember their marriage at all.

Now, while the two were wandering in the street, Lu Qingzhou pretended to be relaxed and asked: "There is no big deal in front of me, when do you think about marrying me?"

Daiyu was caught off guard by his question, she really hadn't thought about it yet: "You and I are not very old, why don't we be more comfortable for a few more years."

"Yu'er is three years old, you and I are elders, there is no hurry." Lu Qingzhou seemed like a parent urging marriage at this moment.

It's just that Daiyu is not ready to be a wife yet.Lu Qingzhou continued: "Look at Qingzhao and Zhao Mingcheng, husband and wife sing together, harmonious and beautiful, I am very envious."

Daiyu understands Lu Qingzhou, he doesn't have a home of his own, and he has suffered a lot for Daiyu's stay in Tokyo in the past few years: "I'm afraid that my parents can't decide my marriage, and I still need the approval of the officials."

Hearing this, Lu Qingzhou felt much better: "So you agree? I will go to the official's house and ask him to marry me."

Daiyu nodded shyly.

After the next day, Lu Qingzhou didn't go home in time, but couldn't wait to go to the imperial study to find the official family. He wanted to ask the official family to propose marriage as soon as possible, so as to avoid long nights and dreams.

"Your Majesty, I and Daiyu are of the same mind, and I am here to ask Your Majesty for a marriage!" Lu Qingzhou was very sincere.

The official wanted him to get married, but the time has not yet come: "I know your feelings, but now Daiyu is the princess, and you are a sixth-rank doctor Zuowu, and your status is quite different. If I rashly propose marriage, Afraid that the officials will not accept."

Lu Qingzhou seemed to have been poured cold water on his head. He and Daiyu were involved in the government affairs, and they were not allowed to be free even for lifelong affairs: "I am willing to do anything for Daiyu, as long as your majesty agrees!"

The officials knew that he was a lover: "Don't worry, I will not marry Daiyu to anyone until you become famous, until you are worthy of her princess status."

The officials' words are unshakable, and Lu Qingzhou can only return disappointed.

After meeting the official's family, Daiyu saw that Lu Qingzhou never mentioned the matter of engagement again, and thought that she had made Lu Qingzhou unhappy: "Why are you so sad and don't talk to me."

It was only then that Lu Qingzhou realized that he had brought his emotions in front of Daiyu: "It's none of your business, it's because the officials don't allow us to get engaged now."

"Why?"

Lu Qingzhou relayed the official words to Daiyu.

Daiyu knew in her heart that the royal family was most concerned about being well-matched and her status, and besides the official family, Princess Jing'an might also be involved in her marriage. "Since His Majesty said so, he must have a good idea in his heart, and he won't marry me to someone else, so don't worry."

"I will definitely make contributions as soon as possible, so that His Majesty will be willing to marry you and me!"

When Wang Anyi heard that Lu Qingzhou's proposal to marry Daiyu failed, he thought it was because the officials disapproved of the two of them being together, so he suddenly regained his spirits, and even encouraged his elder brother to also ask for a marriage.

Wang Anshi was annoyed by his younger sister: "I admire the princess, but I don't necessarily want to marry her as a wife. Do you understand?"

Wang Anyi blamed her brother for not being up to date: "If you don't work hard for such a good girl, I will beat you for your parents!" As she said that, she waved her fist to beat her brother.

Wang Anshi had no choice but to reluctantly agree: "Then I will try in the palace? If I fail, you are not allowed to mention this matter from now on, you understand?"

Wang Anyi fully agreed, at this moment, she only hoped that her brother would go to the official's house, so that the matter would be half successful, as for the future, we will talk about it later.

Wang Anshi went to the official's house to express his intention.

The official joked: "Why do you fall in love with the princess too?"

Wang Anshi showed embarrassment: "It's really forced by my sister." He told the officials all about how Wang Anyi tossed and insisted on Daiyu being his sister-in-law.

The officials were all amused: "I think your sister likes the Princess too much!"
