Xie Chengjin looked at Lu Zhiyun, then at Lu Shaoyu, raised his lips and smiled, put his arm around Lu Shaoyu's shoulders and said, "I heard that you are good at chess, why don't we play a game?"
Lu Zhiyun watched the strange two people walk away.
"Xiao Yun'er, what are you looking at?" Jia Linglong asked.
"Two weird people." Lu Zhiyun complained, "Ignore them, let's go over there and play."
"Can you count me in?"
"Of course." Lu Zhiyun said, "You like stones, right? A batch of new strange stones were shipped to my house some time ago. Each one is very beautiful. I will take you to see them."
The Lu family is indeed beautiful, and such beauty needs to be decorated slowly. Even a stone was bought at a high price. Recently, more and more people know that Mrs. Lu is generous and has sent all kinds of strange things.
Perhaps because Mu Siyu was pregnant, Lu Yi did not allow her to work in the shop often, so she began to toil in the yard.
"Lu Jieyuan and Prince Xie are playing a game."
"Xie Shizi's chess skills were taught by Master Yifan. Although he doesn't often play chess with others, everyone knows that his chess skills are very good. After all, Lu Jieyuan is young and studies all day, so he has time to study
A chess game?”
When Mrs. Wu Anhou heard that her precious son was married to the Lu family's little Jieyuan, she frowned: "This kid doesn't know how to restrain himself in other people's houses."
"Young people are very angry, let them toss themselves." Marquis Wu'an peeled a lychee and gave it to Mrs. Marquis Wu'an. "This lychee is a good thing. I went to Beijing a few days ago, and the emperor summoned me to stay for a meal.
The last fruit was lychees. There were only five on the plate, and I didn’t dare to eat them. I heard later that concubines of higher rank were given two lychees each, and concubines of lower rank were given one lychee.”
Mrs. Wu'an Hou looked at the pile of lychees arranged in a hill and said, "The Lu family is really generous. That Mrs. Lu is so flamboyant, isn't she afraid of being hated by others?"
"The Lu family is already rich. Who in the capital doesn't know that the Lu family is rich? Since everyone in the world knows it, why should we hide it? If we hide it, wouldn't it be a bit suspicious?" Marquis Wu An said, "Master Lu is a smart man.
, Mrs. Lu can run such a large industry, and her brains are no worse than Mr. Lu. They must have anticipated various situations, so they are so confident."
"A draw..." the servant loudly reported the battle situation over there.
Xie Chengjin fell into trouble.
Lu Shaoyu pressed forward step by step and quickly fell to Bai Zi.
Judging from the current situation, Bai Zi has the upper hand.
But Lu Shaoyu knew that this man had not used his full strength yet, and he was afraid that the real show would come in the second half of the game.
This banquet was originally Lu Shaoyu's celebration banquet. From poems to chess games, he showed everyone different officials' children, and also let them see the style of the young Jie Yuan.
After this banquet, there was a new group in the capital, called the Four Great Talents in the Capital.
Needless to say, these four great talents were the four who stole the show at the banquet - Lu Shaoyu, Mo Qingyan, Xie Chengjin, and Jiang Wanchen.
Qin Wenhan returned to Hubei City after attending the banquet. When he came, he brought a letter home from Dr. Zhu, and when he returned, he brought the good news about Mu Zhenghan and Lu Shaoyu.
Afterwards, Lu Shaoyu returned to the academy and continued to prepare for next year's examination.
"Madam, someone is coming from the palace." Chanyi walked in from outside and said to Mu Siyu who was lying there like a lazy cat.
"Gongli?" Mu Siyu looked up at Chanyi, "Are you sure it's Gongli?"
"It's from the palace. The speaker has a male voice. Who else could he be besides from the palace?" Chanyi said, "Madam, I will find you some more dignified clothes right away."
Mu Siyu got up, tidied up a little, and said to Chanyi: "Okay, stop looking for it. Come over here and comb my hair. There is no need to prepare anything else."
When Mu Siyu went out and saw her father-in-law who had been waiting for a long time, the father-in-law had a smile on his face and looked like he was trying to please her. He obviously did not dare to offend her.
Mu Siyu could almost see it.
It seemed that the person who was looking for her was not doing anything bad. Otherwise, given the power of the palace, it would be impossible to be so polite to her.
"I'm sorry, father-in-law, for keeping you waiting."
"Where is it? It's just an unlucky coincidence that our family came here and we happened to meet Madam during her lunch break." The eunuch said flatteringly, "That's it. The Queen Mother has a decree to announce Madam's entry into the palace."
"The Queen Mother?" When Mu Siyu was speaking, Chanyi had already stuffed a purse behind her.
The eunuch smiled and stuffed it into his sleeves, and said: "Madam, don't worry, the Queen Mother's Buddhist hall is quite old, and she wants to rebuild it."
Mu Siyu: "..."
Does this have anything to do with her?
Is it possible that we still need to find her to rebuild the Buddhist temple?
This is a difficulty that has never been challenged before. The most important thing is that the person is still the Queen Mother. If she doesn't do it well, the other party can decide her life or death with just one sentence.
"The Queen Mother wants me to..."
"Yes, Madam is really smart."
Mu Siyu smiled lightly and complained in her heart: "I would rather not be so smart."
What's a good thing?
"Madam, our family has been out of the palace for some time. We can't keep the Queen Mother waiting. Madam, we should go into the palace with our family to recover!"
"Okay." Mu Siyu said, "But now that I am heavy, I must have a girl to take care of me. These two girls will follow me, okay?"
"certainly."
Mu Siyu followed the eunuch into the palace.
The eunuch took her to the Queen Mother's palace.
The Queen Mother held the prayer beads and looked at Mu Siyu calmly: "Are you the most famous businesswoman in the world?"
"Back to the Queen Mother, my husband's surname is Lu. If the Queen Mother is talking about the owner of the 'Dream Home', it should be my wife."
"Mother Yang, take her to see the small Buddhist hall." The Queen Mother said calmly, "If she can cultivate to my satisfaction, the Ai family will be rewarded heavily."
Mu Siyu said yes.
She followed Grandma Yang to the small Buddhist hall.
The small Buddhist hall must have been built many years ago, and the room was filled with the scent of sandalwood that had not been cleaned for a long time.
Mu Siyu looked at the situation of the small Buddhist hall and talked to Nanny Yang. Her words were all about the Queen Mother's preferences.
Logically speaking, this kind of matter should be handled by the Ministry of Works, but instead of asking the Ministry of Works to do it, she was called in as an outsider. Either she was curious about her and wanted to see if she had this ability, or she was
The Queen Mother was very picky, and the adults from the Ministry of Works really couldn't satisfy the Queen Mother's needs, so they called her in, an outsider, to treat her like a living horse.
"If you have any ideas, madam, just tell me." Nanny Yang said, "The Queen Mother has given instructions, and I have been following your orders recently."
