win the hairpin

Chapter 24 Zhang Xuxuan

Yin Xiao Bafeng did not move, the lady and the old man hesitated and did not dare to retreat easily.

Song Huiyue waved her hand at Yin Xiao, and Yin Xiao snorted coldly, holding the porcelain piece in her hand, and retreated outside the door.

The other two followed closely behind and closed the private room door.

Song Huiyue stretched out her hand and patted Prince Jin's back lightly, and said softly, "My lord, don't be impatient, you have to delay handling important matters."

She pulled away from King Jin's arms, comforted King Jin to sit in her seat, and poured him a cup of tea.

King Jin stared at her, his eyes were red, his nose was sore, his heart was pounding, he wanted to jump out of his mouth, and hold it in front of Song Huiyue to show her.

After drinking a cup of tea, he calmed down and regained his sanity.

"You!" King Jin leaned back on the chair, looking at his hands.

In the most difficult time, he carried her on his back, hugged her, and cut bamboo with her like this, and slowly got over it.

Since Song Huiyue didn't want to wade into his muddy water, that's fine. As for Huang Wenqiu, he'll think about it slowly.

There was a knock on the door, King Jin called in, and Xie Zhou came in: "My lord."

"Is something wrong?"

"Zhang Xutang will be there the day after tomorrow."

Zhang Xutang is the youngest son of Prime Minister Zhang Rui. He was gifted and intelligent when he was young. Later, he put aside his books and wandered around in three tiles and two houses.

Yue Huaiyu arrived in Tanzhou, and Zhang Xutang also arrived in Tanzhou, so people couldn't help thinking about it.

King Jin thought for a while, and said to Song Huiyue: "Tomorrow, I will have a funeral at the mansion, and I won't be free. I'll talk to you when I'm done."

There are funerals in the palace every year, and this year is the same as in previous years. The only difference is that after the funeral, the king of Jin was overly worried, coupled with the wind and cold, he couldn't afford to get sick.

The sickness came like a mountain, and the sickness went like a spinning thread. The door of the palace, which was not very open, was completely closed, and not even a fly could fly in.

On July [-]th, Song Huiyue went to buy jewelry with Mrs. Song, and saw Zhang Xutang on the second floor who had entered the city.

Zhang Xuzhang is one year younger than King Jin, handsome and handsome, with a face like jade, bright eyes and bright teeth, wearing a light shirt and a small hat, riding a yellow horse, bringing five playmates and ten idlers, and going straight into the city after getting off the boat come.

As soon as the sun rose, he took four or five cents of wine, whipped his horse in the street, and the others chased after him astride his horse. There were five villainous young men who controlled the horse for them. These five evil young men all showed tattoos on their thighs. It is a famous "flower-legged horse" in Kyoto.

This group of people can be seen as regulars in Fengyue Field and familiar hands in the academy.

The horse knocked over the vendor, and a housekeeper came from behind, threw it casually, and spilled about twenty small silver coins, causing everyone to chase and scramble.

Zhang Xutang reined in his horse, turned back, saw the crowd rolling in dust for a little profit, laughed loudly, had enough of watching, and galloped away again.

The entire city of Tanzhou, from high-ranking officials to low-ranking people, all fell on their backs because of Zhang Xutang's troubles.

Even the Goulan Wazi was waiting eagerly, looking forward to Zhang Xutang's visit.

Mrs. Song saw the commotion in the street, men, women and children were chasing after Zhang Xutang's horse team, the noise went straight to the sky, she frowned, and brought Song Huiyue home full of thoughts.

She hated the Zhang family enough, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Winners and losers have been like this since ancient times. At that time, their family was in a whirlpool and was smashed to pieces. There was no way to talk about revenge, but it was better to avoid disputes and live a stable life.

Back home, Song Huiyue was still worried and asked Yin Xiao to go out and find out what Zhang Xutang had done.

It was early the next morning that Yin Xiao came back.

"Zhang Xutang ran around the city and saw Zhou Dingshen's house to live in. Zhou Dingshen was reluctant, so Zhang Xutang added [-] taels of silver and whispered a few more words. Zhou Dingshen agreed and cleaned up on the spot. The burden was soft, so I hired a dentist, made a contract, and brought my family to Zhuangzi."

Mr. Zhou Dingshen is a rich man inherited from his ancestors, and several generations have lived in this house, and the ancestral memorial tablets are all inside, even if it was added to [-] taels, he would not be able to respond.

Song Huiyue thought about it carefully: "Zhou Yuanwai has three sons, the first two are mediocre, and they can only live on the ancestral property. The last one is said to have a photographic memory, and he must go to the official career. Zhang Yanei should be Promise to let Zhou Xiaoye enter Zhang Xiangye's door."

Not only that, next to Zhou Dingshen's mansion is Yue Huaiyu's grandfather Fu's family.

Yin Xiao waited for her to finish thinking, and then said: "After buying the house, he went to the Fu's house. I couldn't follow in, so I went to the Fu's house for a night and listened to some gossip.
It turned out that Zhang Xuzhang came to Tanzhou this time to find Mrs. Yue specially. He made a promise with Mr. Fu that he would study hard in the future and not go out to mess around again. He even took a letter from Mr. Zhang to go to Yuelu Academy read. "

"It seems that the marriage of Zhang Yue's family is about to happen."

As Song Huiyue spoke, she fell into deep thought again.

The current bishop of Yuelu Academy is Lu Hong. His first ancestor was a famous Confucianist. After several changes, he is the ninth generation.

Lu Hong believes that there is no difference between imperial examination students and kung fu fools, and students should have the heart to protect the people.

Moreover, Lu Hong has a tough bone, and he makes no secret of his hatred of the Zhang family. He must scold the prime minister Zhang Rui once a year in the lecture.

Song Huiyue once asked Yin Xiao to follow Lu Hong, but it turned out that Lu Hong was not just trying to gain fame, he scolded even more fiercely behind his back, even the emperor scolded, and King Jin was not spared.

In order to show that he is magnanimous and doesn't care about him like him, Zhang Rui secretly thought that he had already gritted his teeth.

Zhang Xutang went to study under Lu Hong?

"Three wins with one stone," Song Huiyue sighed, "Zhang Xutang's high-profile visit to Tanzhou not only flattered Yue Chongtai, but also kept an eye on the prince, and he even planned to win over Lu Hong. The emperor would not be suspicious, really smart. "

She thought about it, but was still uneasy.

The Zhang family's actions must be aimed at King Jin.

Whether the emperor misses his son or the son misses his father, it is not a good thing for her.

She is a frightened bird, unable to withstand even the slightest bit of wind and rain.

Speaking of which, Concubine Zhang Gui was also one of the frightened birds, and King Jin just made a slight appearance, so she couldn't wait to make a move.

What is there in Prince Jin that she should be so afraid of?
"I'm going to find my mother."

Mrs. Song was also restless, she hadn't slept all night, there were two bruises under her eyes, and she was absent-mindedly waiting for her to come to have breakfast.

Song Qinghui, who was at the side, ate the steamed stuffed buns without distraction, and his mouth was full of oil. When he saw Song Huiyue coming in, he raised his head and said loudly, "Sister, eat steamed stuffed buns!"

"Okay," Song Huiyue pressed him on the stool to prevent him from jumping on her, "I'm slow to eat, you have to wait for me."

Song Qinghui hurriedly ate, waiting for Song Huiyue.

Song Huiyue served Mrs. Song a bowl of porridge: "Mother, eat first."

The three of them ate breakfast at the same table, and took down the table to drink tea. Then Song Huiyue said, "Auntie, although it's already out of dog days, it's not cool at all, especially because the city is full of cars and horses. Our family is going to Meishan Farm Stay up for a while."
