Chapter Four: The First Meeting of the Yinglian Mansion
The year of Yiyou, the month of Bingxu, and the day of Guisi, are sunny.
The entrance of the Lingdang Hutong east of the Beihai in Andingmen was filled with carriages and sedan chairs early in the morning. At the gate of Feng Mansion, next to the majestic stone lion, there was a table each, and the accountant wearing glasses sat behind him, with his head silenced.
Writing hard on the bright red gift tent.
In front of them was a long dragon, with flattering smiles on their faces. Behind them were servants wearing blue clothes busy moving gifts into the mansion.
On the main entrance stairs, a fat white man in a dark red robe had a smile like Maitreya Buddha on his face. He nodded and greeted everyone who passed by him. Occasionally, he rushed down the stairs and nodded and bowed to welcome someone into the main entrance.
, and then return to the same place and continue the unchanged work.
If you return for three years, there will be no grand event today. However, the three-year death to Yinglian's father was just over, and he was awarded the position of commander of the Zhenghuang Banner Guardian Army. Now less than half a year later, he has been appointed as the Minister of the General Office of the Interior and also the Chief Secretary of the Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
He also supervised the Xian'an Palace official school. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he must be very important in his mind today, so he will be promoted repeatedly.
Most people in the world are tempted by the incest, and they only regret that they have no way to join and want to sharpen their heads. This time, his wife's fiftieth birthday is a heartfelt opportunity. If you don't come to worship again, when will you wait?
The housekeeper Yongfu stood on the steps, thinking about the experiences of Yinglian over the years, looking at the grand occasion, he felt quite energetic and proud. However, when his eyes occasionally swept towards the human dragon, he suddenly
I was stunned.
Behind the crowd, a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a clean blue-gray cotton robe, a sauce-colored vest on his upper body, a long black braid hanging behind his head, and a bright red strap at the end, making it look different.
Like a spirit.
The boy was empty-handed, with bright eyes on his delicate face and calm expression. Compared with the people holding gift lists beside him, he was like a crane standing out in the crowd.
People probably recognized the boy's identity and made way for the way. They looked at him calmly, while the people behind them looked strange and whispered from time to time.
Yongfu was a little embarrassed, but when he remembered Yinglian's anger at the Miss the night before, he was sure that he rushed to the young man who had already walked in front of him and bowed his hand to the court: "So it's Mr. Shanbao. How good are you? Today's wife's birthday
, Could it be that you were also here to celebrate your birthday?" As he said that, he looked at Shanbao's empty hand squintly.
The boy was naturally a good treasure. He smiled: "Of course, it was for the birthday celebration. Could it be that I would be so great if I retired from the marriage?"
"Have you really broken up? I thought..."
"Don't you say you can't live for a few days? Now..."
The whispers behind him became louder and louder, but Shanbao seemed to have not heard it, and still looked at Yongfu with a smile.
That day, he could not resist Feng Wenwen's tearful offensive and agreed to come to celebrate Mrs. Feng's birthday. It was a last resort and did not forgive Yinglian from the bottom of his heart. Today, he chose to appear in a high-profile manner to confirm the other party's treason and humiliate them well.
A turn.
As for the other party's identity, it was not within his consideration - what happened to the minister of the inner court? It was nonsense in front of me.
"Of course!" Yongfu was kept silent by Shanbao. He also felt angry when he listened to the discussion below. The princess smiled and said, "But since you are congratulating your birthday, you may be a little unreasonable, right?"
Shanbao is still calm and gentle, without any embarrassment, but his words are like a knife: "'The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water', the slave who looks down on others, is this what your master teaches you?
”
"This..." Yongfu's face turned red. He wanted to ask someone to knock Shanbao away, but looking at the gaze shot towards him, he did not dare to earn Yinglian a reputation as a snobbish person. He suppressed his anger and turned his back to let him go.
Going to the side, he snorted angrily, "Please!"
Shanbao felt very happy, smiled slightly, walked towards the door with his head raised, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw a young man wearing a group collar and replenishing clothes, embroidered with river cliffs, a beast standing among them, a string of crystal clear
The beads were covered with a wide-handled waist knife around her waist. The red tassels fluttered in the wind. She exuded a different spirit and was smiling at herself.
The boy's whole face is as sharp as a knife, his nose is high, his eyebrows are thick, his eyes are big, and he is quite handsome. When he saw Shanbao looking over, he clasped his fists and smiled: "I said it just now, and I can relieve myself when I listened to it. Such a slave is
You shouldn't be polite to them. If I were you, I would shave him."
Who is this person? How dare you speak like no one in Feng's mansion? Shanbao thought curiously, and stepped forward and bowed: "Sir, I'm too rewarded. Student Niuhulu Shanbao, I dare not ask about the name of the adult!"
"I know you are Shanbao who was broken up by Yinglian. I thought you came here today to ask Yinglian to take back his life. I saw you talking to the housekeeper just now, and it turned out that he was looking for trouble?" The boy did not answer Shanbao's question
Instead, he came over and lowered his head and said in a low voice, then looked at Shanbao and said repeatedly:
"I've heard that Yinglian's grandson-in-law looks like Pan An. Today, I saw it. If you change into women's clothing, you'll be more beautiful than the girl you chose in the palace. Why would Yinglian be willing to break off the engagement?
?”
Shanbao heard the other party talking about his appearance, and a fire suddenly hit him up. He had already looked in the mirror and was really dissatisfied with his current appearance. He was neither male nor female, and he wanted to use scissors to draw two pieces.
Now I heard that the other party's jade belt was frivolous, and he ignored the other party's identity. He clasped his fists and said, "Look at you wearing a replenishment, I respectfully call you a lord, but... I hope you will respect yourself!" After saying that, he turned his face cold, turned around and left
.
"You...!" The young man looked at Shanbao's back, and anger suddenly appeared on his handsome face. But for only a moment, Zhan Yan smiled and said softly: "It's quite arrogant, interesting, interesting!"
Shanbao was angry and felt that his appearance was too handsome. At this time, the male style was prevalent. He was really afraid that he would encounter those dirty people like a boy again, so he did not rush into the crowd, but entered the courtyard.
The reed shed is built in the middle, looking for a corner, silently thinking about your thoughts.
The yard is set against the east side, with gongs and drums on it, and someone is singing opera. A beautiful woman in her forties sits under the middle of the stage and watches the opera, chatting with a few ladies next to her from time to time.
, I didn't notice the uneasiness of the girl behind me.
Feng Wenwen's mind was not on the stage at all. She looked around from time to time, her pretty face was filled with worry and anxiety. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, she threw Feng down and walked quickly towards the corner of the reed roof.
"Brother Shanbao, you're here, I thought you were not here!"
Shanbao looked up and found Feng Wenwen standing in front of her pretty, with white skin as snowy as snowy, her eyes full of like two clear springs, and her anger disappeared immediately. She stood up and rubbed the other person's head in a doting way.
, "Since I promised you, I will naturally keep my word!"
Feng Wenwen was stunned by Shanbao's sudden intimate actions, but she didn't know that such actions were very ordinary in later generations. Her face turned red and her heart jumped up wildly.
"By the way, do you know that person?"
"Who?" Feng Wenwen was stunned, and looked in the direction of Shanbao's mouth, and her pretty face turned cold: "I know you!"
"Oh? Do you know what his name is?" Shanbao squinted his eyes and looked at the boy in the distance in the replenishment and chatting with a middle-aged red-topped official, thinking in his heart, Damn, I dare to take advantage of my own money, have a chance
