Matchmaker◇

The little one will serve the empress comfortably

Early the next morning, Qu Mao led the officials from Lanzhou to welcome Song Yun with a grand ceremony.

With so many people coming and the gorgeous sedan chair, Song Yun thought in a trance that he had directly enthroned as emperor.Reminded by Qi Yin, Song Yun knew that this battle was indeed enough to welcome the emperor.

From Guanyin Hall to Lanzhou State Shepherd's Mansion, it was only more than ten miles away. From dawn to dusk, Song Yun sat on the car and was carried for a whole day.Like a parade through the streets, there are many detours.The people of Lanzhou lined the road to welcome, and almost everyone saw the shadowy figure of the Queen Mother behind the veil.

Although there were yamen servants in front of the team holding up signs saying "Quiet" and "Avoid", but the common people crowded shoulder to shoulder and whispered to each other, no matter what they heard, voices could be heard.

Song Yun heard that someone praised him as a fairy who descended to the mortal world with a real dragon in his arms; some people didn't see his face clearly, saying that he looked like a fairy.

Others sighed, saying that the prince is still in the belly and that's the battle, so when he is born, will he be able to pay off?One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, this is also the emperor, and that is also a real dragon, the world will be in chaos!

Good words don't travel far, but sighs are contagious.As more and more people began to worry, and when some people even uttered words such as "the beauty is a disaster" and "the master is young and the country is suspicious", Song Yun completely understood what Qu Mao's purpose was.

The so-called flattery is to give an unbearable reputation first, and then pull him down from the altar.

Qi Chou couldn't think of such a way in his mind.This Qu Mao is not just a mediocre talent who only caters to flattery.

The queen mother drove for a day, and finally came to the state pastoral mansion.

The chariot sedan fell, Song Yun patted Qi Yin's head, brushed aside the veil with one hand, and was about to get off the chariot, when suddenly there was a Taoist in Tsing Yi in front of him.

Qu Mao, the state shepherd who was riding in front, got off his horse in a hurry, and greeted him: "Master Wuwei has left the customs? I have lost my way and greeted you, forgive me!"

Where did the Taoist come from, to be greeted so humblely by a state governor?

The Taoist man had a long beard and sparse face, drooping eyelids, and flicked his whisk. He didn't respond to Qu Mao. He looked at Song Yun and bowed slightly: "The Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable. I have been in seclusion for a season in poverty. Recently, I noticed that the dragon spirit is rising, so I am here to welcome you."

In just one sentence, it was like throwing a thunder in the crowd.

After Qi Chou left Quezhou, he also came to Lanzhou, and then returned to Beijing. Why didn't Taoist Wuwei notice the Dragon Qi at that time?Now it is self-evident who is referring to the dragon spirit in Lanzhou.

This is no longer within the scope of Qu Maohui's "praising" Song Yun.Song Yun turned around to look at the sedan chair that had settled down behind him. Yan Yunshen was sitting inside. The Taifu lifted the curtain and got out of the sedan chair, walked to Song Yun's side, and said, "Please enter the palace, Queen Mother."

Yan Yunshen's face was still calm and calm, and Song Yun couldn't analyze his attitude towards this matter from his expression.

Who ordered this Taoist to say these words?It was impossible for him to really see that the black dog next to Song Yun was actually the late Emperor Yan.

Song Yun got out of the sedan chair, chose to go straight past the Taoist and enter the mansion of Zhou Mu, just like Yan Yunshen.

Qu Mao repeatedly apologized to the Taoist from behind, and it took him a long time to catch up. Wiping his sweat, he said, "Your Majesty shouldn't have neglected Master like this! It's a sin!"

Song Yun glanced at him, "Master Qu treats that Taoist as a guest of honor. Could it be that the Taoist said that the dragon energy comes from Lord Qu?"

Qu Mao was stunned for a moment, and said repeatedly: "Don't dare dare... Your Majesty, why do you pretend to be ignorant with me about the obvious things."

"The Ai family really doesn't understand." Song Yun frowned, "Why don't Master Qu explain to the Ai family? Then explain to His Majesty?"

Qu Mao didn't dare to accept this again, he quickly put on a smiling face, leaned forward and said to the Taifu and the Queen Mother: "Since I am in the office of a young minister, it is up to the young minister to show my respect as a landlord. The minister has prepared a banquet to cleanse the dust, with top-notch dancing and music—”

As soon as he said this, Luo Fu, who was following Song Yun, sneered disdainfully.

Qu Mao looked her up and down and raised his eyebrows: "If the girl refuses to accept, you can compete with her at the banquet tonight."

Luo Fu sneered: "What kind of low-class guy deserves to be on the same stage with me? Besides, not everyone is worthy to watch me dance." Luo Fu turned his face away, obviously not wanting to talk to Qu Mao anymore.

Qu Mao was careless, and when the Empress Dowager and Taifu were sluggish in Luofu, he really started to compete with the girl.As soon as night fell, he ordered his servants to set up a table. Several plays on the stage had been performed in turn, and it was said that they were all performed by famous local actors.

Qu Mao looked haughty and quite complacent, but Luo Fu was still cold and disdainful.

Song Yun had seen Luo Fu's dance, and then watched the old-fashioned rigid performance, and he was not interested at all. He only felt that the babbling sound was noisy.

After watching the two-fold play, Tai Tu said that he still had business to deal with and left first.Song Yun didn't know what other official duties he had in Lanzhou, it was probably an excuse for not wanting to continue watching.

Song Yun propped his head and felt drowsy, but Qu Mao kept whispering in his ear: "The next episode will be extremely exciting!"

After saying the same thing seven or eight times, Song Yun didn't even bother to do the perfunctory on the scene, and was about to say that she was tired and went back to rest, when a new character changed on stage.

The repertoire is not new, it is the segment in "The Romance of the West Chamber" where the matchmaker matches Zhang Sheng and Yingying, the segment that Tieniu dislikes the most.

In Tie Niu's view, a good young lady can't find any upright good boy, so she has to hang out with a poor scholar secretly.Tieniu asserted that this story was specially written by men to coax other girls.Tieniu only watches palace fights and house fights, and it is good to kill all the chickens and dogs, and he gets angry when he sees this kind of you and me.

Song Yun knew this story, and didn't like the role of matchmaker, thinking it was too frivolous.Most of the actors who play this role in the market know that they should pursue a cute and lively image, but the difficulty is to master that dexterity.

The one on the stage, dressed in red, is light and nimble, swinging the chessboard, his eyes are looking forward, his eyes are extremely charming and charming, and his voice is crisp and sweet like the jingle of a clear spring.It's not matching Miss and Zhang Sheng, I almost snatched Zhang Sheng's soul away.

Such a charming little matchmaker is different from the previous characters.It was the first time for Song Yun to see her, and she found it novel, and her sleepiness was gone.

Seeing that he was interested, Qu Mao said triumphantly, "This is my adopted son. If the empress thinks highly of it, I will send it to amuse the empress to relieve boredom."

Sure enough, it has become a habit for Qu Mao to send people out.But... adopted son?Such a coquettish and seductive posture, is it a man?

For the first time in the matter of pretending to be a woman, Song Yun felt inferior.

After the repertoire, although Song Yun was not interested in asking the actor to come to thank him—he had to reward him with more silver, but he didn't have any, so he had to ask the Taifu to borrow it, and the Taifu left again.It's a shame that you can't figure out the money to tip.

But the opera singers came all the time, and Song Yun had to put on a gesture and give two words of worthless verbal praise: "The opera sings very well, and the appearance is also pretty. But the first emperor passed away only half a year ago, and the Ai family really doesn't want to have fun."

The actor blinked his peach blossom eyes, the corners of his eyes were flushed, his eyes seemed drunk but not drunk, his ignorance revealed his tenderness.He doesn't use a female voice when he speaks, and his clear and youthful voice is innocent: "The villain doesn't understand these... Did the villain do something wrong? Will he kill his head? Father..." Then he asked Qu Mao for help gaze.

Qu Mao could see that Song Yun didn't intend to embarrass him, so he explained with a smile: "This kid hasn't read any books since he was a child, and he is not very old. He only talks stupid things. My mother will definitely not be as knowledgeable as him. Although a person is stupid, But he is considerate and well-behaved, and it is his good fortune to be trained/taught by the empress."

Qi Yin was so sneezed by the smell of powder on the boy's body, he complained to Song Yun: "Stupidity is true, but pretentiousness is even more disgusting. Qu Mao is really bold, such a lowly person dares to be sent to Yunyun."

Maybe it was meant to be slight and insulting, or maybe Qu Mao wanted to send some eyeliner after seeing Song Yun take a few extra glances.

No matter what kind, Song Yun will be finished if he doesn't pick up.

Hearing that the Queen Mother didn't want her, the little matchmaker instantly burst into tears. She glanced at Qu Mao's displeased expression from the corner of her eye, and said tragically: "It's the villain who didn't do a good job. He displeased the empress and embarrassed the adoptive father... ..." The tone was like a prostitute being squeezed by an old bustard.

Not only was Song Yun unhappy, but Luo Fu frowned more and more, suspecting that Qu Mao deliberately used this person to disgust him.

Song Yun insisted on not accepting the matchmaker.

After the banquet was over, Song Yun and Qi Yin went back to their residence. Apart from Luo Fu, they were followed by several maids that Qu Mao forcefully forced over—named maids, just to watch.

Song Yun deliberately found an excuse to get rid of these people, and deliberately went around in circles in the state pastoral mansion.

It is also the residence of the state herdsman, but the one in Lanzhou is much more magnificent than that of Hu Fu in Quezhou.Let’s just talk about the pavilions and waterside pavilions, the precious chrysanthemums around the pond, and the fields of green leaves in the pond.

After the [-]th of September, the lotus leaves began to wither and turn yellow. Qu Mao’s pond should be taken care of by a special person. After removing the withered yellow leaves, the rest is dark green that has experienced frost and cold, which is unique.There are also water chestnut leaves mixed in.It was already the time when water chestnuts were out of season, but judging from the growth of leaves in this pond, it should not have been dug.

That's right, in the majestic State Shepherd's Mansion, if you can't eat delicacies from mountains and seas, who will dig water chestnuts?But the water chestnut is really delicious.

Song Yun thought that there were also water chestnuts in the pond of Xu's old house.At that time, Song Yun rescued Su Mingzhu who fell into the water, and even grabbed a handful of them, and stuffed them into his sleeves that were wet with mud.

Later, when he went back to his room to change clothes, Tieniu saw that he was drenched and shouted, "Just call the servant to save him. Although Ah Yun is good at water, you are Miss Qianjin!"

Song Yun shared a handful of water chestnuts with her, eating people with a short mouth, and Tieniu had nothing to say except "delicious".

It was such a good time.

Song Yun lamented the past, and suddenly heard a splash, and a splash of water splashed under the gazebo opposite the pond.

Before Song Yun could see exactly what fell into the water, the maid behind her screamed, "It's Mr. Eleven who fell into the water! Save him!"

Eleven sons?Qu Mao gave birth to so many sons?

Qi Yin bit Song Yun's cuff, and said in an unhappy tone, "It's that little matchmaker."

That's right, Song Yun could see clearly that the people churning in the water were wearing red costumes.

Could it be that because he didn't want it, he wanted to commit suicide?Song Yun frowned. The water here is not too deep, but the water chestnut is lush, and there must be many aquatic plants underneath.If you don't save people quickly, I'm afraid this little matchmaker will become a water ghost.

But everyone present, except Song Yun, seemed to be unable to save people—some of the maids ran away calling for help, while others stood still and screamed.Luo Fu may know water, but her expression is indifferent, as if she stays out of the matter.

Song Yun suddenly thought of how to get rid of these eyes and ears, he patted Qi Yin on the back, "Go, drag him up."

Although Qi Yin is seasick, his water skills are not bad, and he is fine in the sea, so shallow water is not a problem at all.

Qi Yin shook his ears in disbelief: "Me? Go into the water and save an actor? I'm the Son of Heaven!"

If he doesn't go into the water, is it necessary for the Queen Mother to save people with a big belly?If you dawdle any longer, you will drown.

Song Yun kicked Qi Yin into the water, Qi Yin didn't react and sank a few feet, and soon came up again, aggrieved and yelled at Song Yun: "Is Yun Yun interested in Xinhuan and wants to murder her husband?" !"

Song Yun smiled: "How can he compare with you."

Only then did Qi Yin reluctantly swim over to save people.

Qi Yin quickly dragged the little matchmaker ashore with her back collar in her mouth, and stomped on his chest several times as if venting her anger.

The little matchmaker spat out a few sips of water, regained consciousness, rushed forward and hugged Song Yun's skirt, and began to cry: "It was the empress who saved me, the empress is really a living Bodhisattva! But if the empress does not leave me behind, I still have no way out... The empress is pitiful, poor little Let's do it!"

Song Yun got a headache from his crying, tore off the corner of her skirt, and asked, "What's your name?"

The little matchmaker raised her head and cast a glistening wink: "The little one's name is Qu Rao, please forgive me. If your mother doesn't like it, I beg you to give me a name."

Qu Rao knelt on the ground, and his posture was also very enchanting and charming. He clasped his hands on his heart, and turned his head to Song Yun, showing his slender neck and jade-smooth collarbone, which was very lovable.

But Song Yun didn't like this, and said firmly: "The Ai family doesn't like to listen to operas, and they don't like to watch people cry."

Song Yun said that he was about to leave, and Qu Rao made a gesture and wanted to dive again. Song Yun didn't want to kick Qi Yin again, so he had to stop again and said, "You just want to survive. The Ai family will tell Master Qu to let him treat you well."

Qu Rao stopped dancing, walked over, approached Song Yun and said in a low voice: "It's not all because of the adoptive father. Who doesn't admire the beauty of the empress? The empress doesn't like to listen to operas, but the youngest is a man. Naturally, there are other things." There is a way to make the empress happy."

As he said that, he looked down at Song Yun's pregnant belly with winking eyes, and said in a slow voice: "I need more comfort during pregnancy, and the young one will definitely serve the mother comfortably."

Song Yun heard goosebumps all over, how could there be such a man as Meng Lang?Just about to get angry and reprimand him, Qi Yin kicked him back to the pond.
