Daiyu of the Red Chamber owes no one

Sure enough, early the next morning, Daiyu and Lin Feng went to the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of Officials.Mr. Liu also has the habit of waking up early. The siblings didn't wait long before a mother-in-law came back and said, Mr. Liu respectfully invites you both.

When Daiyu's sister and brother arrived at Xie Yuan's mansion, they got off the car inside the screen wall, and Fang and his mother-in-law came to the other courtyard where Mr. Liu lived.It is inevitable that outsiders gossip, although Daiyu is Mr. Liu's disciple, she has not studied with Mr. Liu, so Daiyu came to thank the family for three days and two birthdays, and the greetings were all behind the screen, and she did not see Mr. Liu at other times.

Today is neither a festival nor a celebration. When Mr. Liu heard Daiyu's visit, he knew that there must be something wrong. He invited someone to come in. After careful questioning, Daiyu told him what was distressing.After listening to Mr. Liu, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "According to Yu'er, how should we deal with this matter? I have no power or power, and I'm afraid I can't stop the people in the royal family from doing things."

The two masters and apprentices were talking through the screen, and the woman outside announced: "The third emperor's grandson is here."

The third emperor's grandson is Mr. Liu's new disciple. Because Mr. Liu is not used to living in the inner courtyard of the imperial palace and has not received the title of Taifu in the official department, the third emperor's grandson goes to Xie's mansion to attend lectures every day.When Daiyu heard that the grandson of the Three Emperors had arrived, she hurriedly got up and wanted to say goodbye.

Hearing the mother-in-law announce the arrival of the third emperor's grandson, Mr. Liu went into the small side room next to the study so that Daiyu and his brother could leave.Unexpectedly, today the third grandson came faster than usual, and waiting for Daiyu's siblings to come out, the third grandson had already appeared in the corridor outside the study.Daiyu heard someone coming to the porch from outside, she couldn't help seeing the outsider, so she had to retreat behind the screen to avoid it.The third emperor's grandson walked in front, only to see a silver-red skirt hiding behind the screen and disappearing.The third emperor's grandson turned his back to the followers behind him, a smile floated on the corner of his mouth, and then he put away the smile and regained his composure.Fang raised his hand and knocked on the door, "Is sir there?"

Because Daiyu was about to leave just now, the door of Mr. Liu's study was opened, and the three grandsons knocked on the door, which was just a matter of etiquette.Just looking up, you can see large bookshelves standing on the north and west walls of the study, and the east wall is the chair case of the husband, and the chair case for the three emperors' grandsons to study for several days is placed on the bottom.There is a screen in front of the bookshelf on the north side, facing the door, and the husband is not in the study.The third emperor's grandson knew that there was someone behind the screen, but he just pretended not to know.

Mr. Liu heard that the third emperor's grandson knocked on the door to greet him, and he came out from the side room and said, "Why did Yongjun come so early today?"

Seeing that Mr. Sun came back from the ear room, the third emperor Sun quickly raised his hands and said: "Mr. is here? What are you doing in the ear room? Do you want to pick up any books? You just need to let me know, and the students will go get them." , the third grandson shouted vigilantly: "Who is it!" while rushing into the study.

Mr. Liu knew that Daiyu hadn't left yet. Although the grandson of the Three Emperors was honorable, Daiyu was also a daughter of Shangshu, and the two of them were teenagers, how could they meet each other?Busy also rushed into the study and said: "Yongjun, what are you doing in such a panic? You don't follow any rules."

The third emperor, Sun Qiang, suppressed a secret smile in his heart, and said with a serious face: "Returning to what Mr. said, the students heard some movement in the study, so it could be that some irrelevant person came in." It turned out that the third emperor had known that Daiyu was in Mr. After greeting my husband, I was afraid that my husband would distract him and make him avoid him, and Daiyu would take advantage of this to leave.So he deliberately pretended to notice movement in the study, and blocked himself in the study first.The third emperor's grandson thought in his heart: I don't know what is the expression on the face of sister Jiangzhu at this moment?I'm afraid it's very interesting, but it's a pity that we still can't meet each other now.The third grandson originally wanted to say that there were thieves in the study, but when he thought of Jiangzhu Fairy's noble appearance, he was obstinate. He couldn't bear to compare the word "thief" to Jiangzhu, so he said that there were "irrelevant things" people".

Daiyu had clearly asked Mr. Liu when the Third Emperor's grandson would come to attend the class, and there was still a quarter of an hour. Daiyu thought that this time would be enough time to finish talking about important matters, so she left calmly.Unexpectedly, the third emperor's grandson came two quarters earlier than usual, so Daiyu was blocked behind the screen.Daiyu thought to herself: Speaking of which, these three emperors and grandsons were originally the emperor's grandsons, and they didn't want to act so recklessly, how could they be so reckless.

The third emperor's grandson thought: I haven't seen sister Jiangzhu for many years, and I miss her very much.It's not upright enough to just block people in the study like this, I hope that sister Jiangzhu doesn't blame me for being abrupt.

Of course, Mr. Liu didn't know that the Third Emperor's grandson secretly sent someone to protect Daiyu at all times, and he also knew of Daiyu's whereabouts. Today, he deliberately came a quarter earlier when he heard that Daiyu was coming to pay a visit to Mr. Liu.Mr. Liu was afraid that the grandson of the third emperor would actually go behind the screen to catch the thief, and would bump into Daiyu instead, so he coughed and said, "Since it's such a coincidence today, it's time for your seniors and brothers to recite the rituals of the same family. Yongjun, behind the screen It's your senior sister."

The third emperor's grandson deliberately pretended to be surprised when he heard this, and he suddenly realized after a while: "It turns out to be the senior sister, so could it be the daughter of Lin Shangshu's family?" I was the one who was rude, so don't blame senior sister, junior brother is polite."

Daiyu couldn't see the expression of the third emperor, but she also knew that the husband had newly accepted the third emperor as his disciple.The grandson of the third emperor is 16 years old this year, five years older than himself, but he didn't expect him to call it "senior sister" very smoothly.Although Daiyu was annoyed at the rampage of the third emperor and grandson, he never rushed behind the screen, and his voice was clean and pleasant, not like a rude person, so Daiyu said from behind the screen: "The third emperor is very polite, although I have Mr. She raised her love into the family, but she was ashamed to say that she was a senior sister. After all, there is a difference between men and women, so please ask the grandson of the third emperor to take shelter temporarily so that I can leave."

The third emperor's grandson heard this and said: "That's the case, senior sister please." The third emperor's grandson took half a step back, but did not go out, and continued: "Mr. It's a gift."

Daiyu frowned when she heard this, and said to herself: Just now I had a good impression of the emperor's grandson, but in a blink of an eye he became so rude again.Although the elders of the same family should give the gift, but in terms of age, I am young, and now I am older, men and women are different, how can I give things to foreigners casually?I don't have to ask people to say that I give and receive privately.So Daiyu said solemnly: "Although I started a few years earlier than the third emperor's grandson, I dare not be the word "senior sister." , Cherish the time and avoid going to the competition.”

Although Daiyu felt that it was a bit abrupt for the third grandson to pay respects, but in the end the third grandson was the prince's son.Since her father and the crown prince have already boarded the same boat, she naturally hopes that the third grandson is well.And for the sake of fellowship, I might as well mention him.So Daiyu said the phrase "Stop going to the competition", because she was afraid that she would arouse the curiosity of young people if she said it too clearly, so Daiyu forgot the word "Beijing suburb".If the third prince is diligent in his studies, and less likely to ride and shoot, the competition in the suburbs of Beijing will naturally not hinder him.

The third grandson stood outside the screen, bowed respectfully again and said, "Thank you for your kind words, Senior Sister."

When Daiyu came, she had already informed Mr. Liu of her intentions.Only the master and apprentice had no time to discuss the solution, and the third grandson arrived first.Mr. Liu listened to the conversation between Daiyu and Yongjun at this moment, and he was overjoyed and said: Isn't it easy to solve the matter of Yu'er's worries at this moment?And yesterday Yongjun also said this to himself, the two apprentices thought of one thing.So Mr. Liu said to Daiyu: "Yu'er, I see that brother Ling is very clever. Why don't you stay and listen to the class for a few days, so that you can be with me."

Daiyu is naturally intelligent, so brother Reng stayed to listen for a few days, if the seventh prince wanted brother Reng to read with the grandson of the tenth emperor, his father would naturally excuse that brother Reng had already accompanied the grandson of the third emperor.So Daiyu nodded behind the screen and said, "So, it's the good fortune of Brother Lun, I'll thank you first for Brother Lun." Turning around, she said to Lin Feng beside her: "Brother Lun, why don't you thank you sir? "

Lin Feng has been behind the screen beside Daiyu and has not spoken. Hearing Daiyu's words, he hastily came out from behind the screen to salute and thank Mr. Liu.Mr. Liu naturally said no courtesy.

After everything was done, Mr. Liu and the third emperor's grandson retreated to the ear room. Lin Zhen personally sent Daiyu to the car, and Wang Momo, Xueyan and others followed and waited.On the road, there was Li Han riding behind the car, and nothing would happen, so Lin Feng went back to the study in the other courtyard where Mr. Liu lived, and he and the third grandson attended a day's class together.Mr. Liu is a great talent, although he only listened to it for a day, Lin Zhen also felt benefited.

When it was time to finish school, the Lin family had already dispatched a steward to pick him up. After Lin Feng left the other courtyard, the third prince gave a deep bow to Mr. Liu and said, "Thank you, sir, for your completion."

Mr. Liu watched the Lin family's carriage driving up the street, submerged in the traffic, Fang turned around and sighed: "You don't need to thank me, it turned out that Yu'er thought of it herself. You only care about their family."

The third prince thought to himself: That's natural, the relatives of sister Jiangzhu are my real relatives.But with a slight smile on his face, he said: "Looking at Lin Shangshu's help on Iron Net Mountain, the students should be very grateful to the Lin family. Besides, King Zhongshun sent someone to the Lin family to ask Brother Rong to be a companion, but the Lin family directly refused. Prince Zhongshun's mansion can't do anything to their family. Even the royal family can't force others to do anything. It's just that the King of Hades is easy to hide, and the little ghost is hard to deal with. It is said that Mr. Lin has made me a companion. "

Mr. Liu nodded with a smile and said, "You don't know the prophet, but Yu'er has thought of this too. I can't tell who is smarter, you or Yu'er."

The third prince thought in his heart: Naturally, the heart is more intelligent than the sister Jiangzhu who has one more hole than Gan, but she is too simple and easy to be deceived, which makes people worry.But he said: "Senior sister must be five years younger than me, but everything is one step ahead of me. Naturally, I can't stand shoulder to shoulder with senior sister." It turned out that besides studying with Mr. Liu, the three princes also discussed court affairs. Yesterday, the third prince mentioned that it is better to put Lin Wei by his side as a companion than others to covet him.Today, sister and brother Daiyu came to ask Mr. Liu for advice on how to keep the clumsiness, so Mr. Liu pushed the boat along with the current, leaving Brother Cheng to listen together.

He also said that Lin Feng returned to Lin's mansion, changed his clothes, and went to Lin Ruhai's room to say hello.Today Lin Ruhai got off work early, Lin Ruhai, his wife and Daiyu were both in the room.

When Lin Feng saw Daiyu, he took a slightly resentful look first, then greeted his parents, and asked, "My sister is doing well today, why did you leave me alone?"

Lin Ruhai's father and daughter were still calm, but Jia Min couldn't bear it any longer. He hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Lin Feng into his arms and said, "Thank you for your sister. Today, the eldest son of Zhongshun Prince's Mansion came in person, but he wants to invite you You accompanied the eldest son of Prince Zhongshun."

Lin Feng listened, his face darkened, and he said: "King Zhongshun is only a prince, and his grandson is also worthy of asking the son of Shang Shuling to accompany him? If it is not for ulterior motives, people will not believe it!" Sun's companions abound, and Yuan is decent.But King Zhongshun is the younger brother of today, and the son of King Zhongshun is considered a side branch, let alone the son of the son?Therefore, the eldest son of the prince of Zhongshun is indeed not worthy of asking the son of Shang Shuling to accompany him as a companion, but it is very suitable to invite the son of a third- and fourth-rank official.

Jia Min said: "That's not the case. Fortunately, your sister came back early today, and we have already read and tweeted you as a companion for the third emperor's grandson."

After Lin Feng heard this, he glanced at Daiyu again and said: "I usually regard you as a good sister. I love food and stubborn things, so I must keep them with my sister first. I don't want my sister to sell me to others as a companion. Unambiguous, it is about to be pushed, why don't you say that I have joined Mr. Liu's family? I am very good, what are you doing as a companion?"

Daiyu smiled and said, "Today you have studied with your master for a day, has he ever asked you to start?"

Lin Feng shook his head, and in an instant he expressed dissatisfaction again: "Mr. Liu has always only accepted talented disciples. What is wrong with me? Tomorrow I will ask Mr. to accept me as an entry-level student, but I will not go to Zhongshun Palace , and don’t read with others.”

Daiyu smiled and said: "As far as our brother's talent is concerned, he is naturally worthy of entering Mr.'s door. After we enter Beijing, my father does not want to delay you. You have already found another famous teacher. Mr. is not a person who is loved by others." Therefore, the master will not accept you as an apprentice, and you will follow the master to attend, and there is only one apprenticeship ceremony, and the master will not hide his secrets, and there is nothing wrong with it.” At that time, people respected teachers most, and tabooed them the most. With the permission of the master, I voted for another school.

Lin Feng felt reasonable after hearing this, and he didn't know the identity of the third emperor's grandson. He was afraid that the third emperor's grandson would be crowned prince as soon as the prince ascended the throne.Accompanied by the third emperor's grandson, how many princes and grandchildren can't ask for it, so I don't want to humiliate myself.It's just that Lin Zhen is arrogant and wants to follow his father's example and become an official in Kedi, so he doesn't want to be treated differently because of his status as the emperor's grandson's companion.So Lin Rong said: "Since my sister has already used this reason to push it away, for the sake of my sister and younger brother, I will reluctantly do it." After finishing speaking, Lin Rong couldn't help laughing.

After hearing this, Daiyu thought it was funny that the third emperor's grandson called her senior sister respectfully today, and Lin Feng only smiled and blushed a little.

Looking forward to the palace banquet at the end of the year, because Concubine Zhen was in the cold palace, this year the palace banquet will be hosted by Concubine Wu.Concubine Wu is the biological mother of the Seventh Prince, the aunt of Concubine Wu who was named concubine with Jia Yuanchun later, and the elder sister Wu Tianyou who was later the father of Concubine Wu.

And because there will be a general election in the spring of next year, Concubine Wu will let officials with a second-rank or higher family have daughters to run for the election, and they will bring their daughters to the palace banquet.Daiyu has never liked such excitement, but after all, Concubine Wu Gui hosted a palace banquet for the first time after Concubine Zhen lost power, and no one wanted to save her face, so it was inevitable.

Waking up early this day, Jia Min put on a lot of make-up according to her grades, while Dai Yu wore ordinary make-up, but she couldn't hide that she was too outstanding.There is only a suet white magnolia flower hairpin on the sideburns, and a string of pearls on the neck, which looks like a lotus emerging from water, fresh and refined.Seeing Daiyu's appearance, Jia Min felt that she was too plain, so she picked up a pair of pearl earrings and put them on with her, making her look more and more lively and pretty.

This day's palace banquet was also the same as last time, everyone held their breaths, only Daiyu glanced over the crowd, and saw an acquaintance whom he hadn't seen for many years: Sun Qing!
