Chapter 42 Not a Gentleman's Covenant
Yunshang's mind all the way was the scene in the palace just now. She remembered what everyone said and the expression on everyone's face when they spoke. She sifted the information that was useful to her like a horse lantern in her mind.
At an intersection on the street, Yunshang turned around the street corner and bumped into a person. He looked at it. Isn't the Lian Zhun who was not right?
Yunshang raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you here?"
"Good question." Lian Zhun raised one of her eyebrows and looked at her narrowly, "Little princess, haven't you noticed that you have gone the wrong way yet?"
Yunshang was surprised again and looked around. Sure enough, the road he took was the one that went back to Qingfu Garden.
"The habit is terrible." Yunshang patted his forehead, sighed, and asked again, "Then why are you standing here?"
Lian Zhun looked like he hated steel, but he didn't say a word. Yunshang looked at his smile and suddenly realized, "You have already guessed that I would go the wrong way, haven't you?"
Look at her fingers pointing at him and trembled slightly because of anger. Lian was sure to laugh and hold her hand. "Little princess, what a smart mind, you guessed it so quickly." After saying that, he didn't forget to wink at her playfully. Yunshang suddenly had a big head. He saw that the people around him couldn't help looking back at them. He felt that it was really a matter to stand here so loudly, and he didn't have time to break free from holding his hand, so he said, "Where's Xiangxiang? You ran out, what about her?"
"That girl Xiangxiang, I really feel sorry for you. I'm afraid that you will feel uncomfortable when you come back in such a hot weather. I went to make a pot of mung bean soup and waited eagerly for you to come back." Lian Zhun made a look of heartfelt, "I'm also waiting for you to come back."
Yunshang was chilled when she heard it. She had other things in her heart and didn't care about him. When the two returned to their new house, Yunshang was shocked. However, it turned out that during the day of her absence, the new house had undergone earth-shaking changes. I don't know where the old furniture and furnishings were lost. As soon as I entered the door, I saw a fish tank placed on the left side of the yard. The bluestone slab in the middle was washed with water, revealing beautiful lines. The right hand was a newly renovated ground, exposed black crushed soil, exuding the fragrance of grass roots.
Yunshang couldn't hide her curiosity. She couldn't go inside. She saw that her bedroom had also changed its appearance. A four-cornered bronze beast brain incense burner was placed in the corner of the room, curling with fragrance. The antique shelf in the middle of the bedroom was replaced, and an eight-fan screen was placed. On the front was a beautiful picture, and the reverse side It looks like a complete map of Fuchun Mountain.
The same is true of the wing rooms on the left and right sides of the bedroom, which have been redecorated. The more she looked at it, the more puzzled she became. When she left, she didn't seem to tell Xiangxiang that she wanted to clean up her home like this, did she?
"Are you surprised? Yunshang's little beauty?" Lian Zhun leaned against the door frame and saw her laugh. "Today, I'm in a hurry, so I can only change these. I'll send someone to buy some good Shaman to make a bed tomorrow, you know..." He suddenly approached Yunshang and smiled evilly, "You know that the most indispensable thing in this boudoir is fun."
Yunshang glanced at him, "The house is at your disposal. You can't spend too much money."
"Money is like dung, and the money is scattered and comes back. My little beauty, why can't you think so much?"
"Money is a dungry to you and a treasure to me. If you dislike me, you should quickly find a generous person to live in. My family is weak, and I can't help you making a big deal." Yunshang sat down and took a sip of tea. Xiangxiang held a big bowl and ran up excitedly, "Miss, drink this! I added rock sugar!"
Yunshang took it over and drank it all. As soon as she finished drinking it, the bowl was taken away by Lian Zhun and put it in his hand to look back. After watching it, she threw it into the yard with a "pop" and fell to pieces.
"You." The fragrance pointed to him and couldn't scold him.
"These are all large bowls of coarse porcelain. How can you give tea to the little beauty of Yunshang?" The perpetrator did not have the little intention of confessing and repenting. Instead, he smiled relaxedly. "Only the glazed cup of ice pit jade can match my little beauty." With that, his hand didn't honestly wipe on her chin and picked a point frivolously.
Yunshang slapped him off his hand, glanced at him coldly, and said to Xiangxiang, "Xiangxiang, go and put another bowl." Xiangxiang stamped her feet and ran away.
Yunshang stood up and closed the door by herself. Lian Zhun ate and smiled and said, "It's still early. Why, Yunshang's little beauty can't stand loneliness?"
Yun Shang leaned her back against the door and raised her lower lip with a smile, "Lian Zhun, when did your voice fall?"
Lian Zhun seemed to be stunned and said, "Last year's Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Real?" Yunshang smiled softly, and there was obvious disbelief in his voice. "But last year, at the Mengqiu Lantern Festival, some people saw you singing in the Foyun Pavilion in the suburbs of Beijing."
Lian Zhun also smiled and said, "There are more than thousands of people in the world who look similar. Why is the little beauty of Yunshang so sure that that person must be me?"
It seemed that he had long expected that he would not admit it. Yunshang also smiled once, but his eyes were extremely sharp. "When you were kicked out of the theater, you were still a backbone officer. See you on the street at dusk, and you will become a wild/roward appearance. Lian Guaner, you are really a born good actor."
Lian Zhun rubbed his face, and the infinite sadness remained in his eyes. In a moment, he said, "Yunshang's little beauty seems to be a little different tonight."
"I really have something to say." Yunshang's voice was as low as a pool of still water, without a wave. "I'll only ask you three questions, Lian Zhun, you have to answer me truthfully."
"Good." Someone narrowed his eyes, and the autumn waves seemed to be starry.
"First, you are trying to get close to the Lou family, but it is not good for the building house?"
"No, I admit that I have my own purpose when I enter the prime minister's house, but I don't intend to be unfavorable to the people of the Lou family."
"Second, how long will you stay here?"
"Stay until I achieve my goal."
"Can your purpose be unfavorable to the Lou family or the people of the Lou family?"
"Little beauty Yunshang, this is the third question."
"Well, you don't have to answer this question. My third question. Yunshang paused and said, "Are you a spy sent by Hanhai or Cangyu?"
A little surprise flowed from Lian Zhun's beautiful eyes and said innocently, "My little beauty, are you confused? How can I have something to do with those people?"
Yunshang said righteously, "Don't deviate from the topic, answer me."
"Of course not." Lian Zhun also restrained his smile and answered.
"Okay." Yunshang pondered for a long time before slowly said, "I have always believed in people in the world. I can't help saying such a sentence. You have your difficulties, and I have my helplessness. So you and I will not interfere with each other in the future. What do you think?"
Lian Zhun smiled faintly, as if there was a smell of conspiracy. He stretched out a jade palm and said, "The man said a word."
"It's hard to catch up with the horse!" Yunshang also stretched out his hand and slapped him three times in a row.
A contract has been concluded!
Lian Zhun withdrew his hand and smiled brightly, "How's it going? Yunshang little beauty, you should be relieved this time, right?
Don't worry? Believe in you, you have a ghost! Yunshang slandered in her stomach and thought to himself that this was a non-gentleman's appointment!
Yunshang smiled and said nothing. She walked over and opened the door again. She saw Xiangxiang walking back and forth in the yard, holding a bowl of mung bean soup in her hand. When she came out, she said angrily, "Miss, what are you doing in there? Close the door in broad daylight.
"What am I doing with your lady? Won't you know next time you come with me?" Lian Zhuan's voice.
Xiangxiang said "ah", as if she had seen something that should not be seen. She hurriedly stepped back two steps. Yunshang turned her head and saw that she was also a little unstable. It turned out that Lianjun didn't know when she loosened her collar, her dark hair was also loose, and there were suspicious red marks on the corners of her eyes...
Yunshang's voice was hoarse, and he almost choked himself to death in one breath, "Lian will..."
"What about me?" Lian Zhun smiled, but it was that kind of charming smile. "Is it because Lian Zhun didn't serve the little princess enough? Still can't make the little princess feel... satisfied?"
"Well." Yunshang had been completely knocked down by this man's logic. Suddenly, a terrible idea flashed in his head, "Don't make Xiangxiang's idea."
Lian Zhun smiled and said, "Don't worry, the rabbit doesn't eat the grass around the nest, especially the good grass like Xiangxiang. I can't bear to touch her at all."
Yunshang snorted coldly, "It's good to know how to be measured."
Poor Xiangxiang has been shocked by the shocking conversation between the two people. Look at this and that, but she can't find a suitable word to say.
In the morning of the next day, Yunshang still got up early and told Xiangxiang to bring breakfast to Mr. Wen, and today she was going to be absent from class again. Early in the morning, he dressed neatly and put away the handkerchief that Lu Jin gave him yesterday and took it on his body.
She still painted the gourd in the same way. She first went to Gu Zitao's mansion, and then the two of them went to the palace together.
In the palace, the situation in the morning is completely different from when I came yesterday afternoon.
In the morning, all the people in the court were going to participate. Outside Zheng Wumen, the sedan chairs of the adults also stopped, and the tops of all colors were dazzling. Yunshang poked his head out of the carriage and secretly remembered the pattern of Zheng Wumen. The red side door on the left was for military officers to enter, the dark green side door on the right was for civil officials, and the bright yellow gate in the middle was the most magnificent. Needless to say, it must be the door for the emperor to travel.
It's just...
Red, yellow, wisps.
Yunshang almost laughed. This pattern only reminded her of the traffic lights of modern society!
Gu Zitao pushed her and pulled her back and pressed her to the seat. "Don't be so anxious. Be careful not to be looked at."
Yunshang spit out her tongue and said, "Om. Got it."
She looked through the gap in the window and asked in a low voice, "It turns out that the Queen's Buddhist Hall and the Yin'an Hall of the Holy Council are so far away!" She calculated silently in her heart that her foot distance and this distance seemed to be a little difficult to control in time.
"It's not impossible to get to the Buddhist hall quickly. If you go straight through the imperial garden, the distance will be doubled." Gu Zitao pointed to a place and said, "It's just that you look there. There is a rockery blocking it. If you want to go there, you have to climb the rockery."
