Hongwu Survival Guide

Chapter 203 One more level to pass

It's been almost a year, and they usually wait at home when they are separated, and they feel at ease when they have expectations. This time... it is the first time they leave home at the same time. The four women dealt with it carefully in the palace. When they left the palace, they just wanted to hurry See your own adults.

Back to the Xuanwu Lake mansion, the time is almost here.

The four daughters came to the main courtyard of the inner house, but there was no one there. After asking, they found out that they were in the west courtyard, so they rushed over again.

This is the residence of a group of 'frontier' girls.

At the beginning, Zhu Yuan said that he didn’t like the deserted surroundings, and the four girls who sent all kinds of girls to the front yard obediently adjusted. The left and right garden courtyards, the west side was given to the "frontier" girls, and the east side was the earliest "mountain". ', 'Shui Shui' line.

There are more others, such as those fangirls and bearded girls, who can't fit in, so they can only be in the front yard.

Entering the five-bay main room here, Loulan and others are guarding the small hall of the outer room on the east side, and there is a sack that does not have a strong sense of presence. There is a master bedroom inside, which belongs to the adults by default, and is only used for maintenance on weekdays. , and no girl lived.

Asking a question, Loulan pointed inward and said that he was taking a nap, and Xieyi asked the other three to stop, and he walked lightly and lifted the curtain to go in.

The two maids, Caimulberry and Xijiangyue, were originally doing embroidery under the window in the inner room, when they heard the movement outside, they got up just in time.

Xinyi entered the door, motioned them to sit down again, and walked to the side of the big bed with the curtains drawn.

Carefully lift the curtain to check, first you see two unfamiliar women, they are slightly older, they were probably delivered with the servants last time, after waking up and sleeping, my lord... leaning against the one who was awake outside, only Showing hair.

The sober woman with a volume of books beside her pillow didn't expect that someone would dare to poke her head in, her face was surprised, and she calmed down after carefully recognizing that it was Xie Yi in the dim light.

He wanted to say hello, but he didn't dare to move or open his mouth, he just gestured with his eyes.

Xinyi also signaled her not to move with her eyes, and turned down the quilt with her hand, so as not to make her lord feel stuffy, so she saw the woman's round shoulders and delicate collarbone, and... she was very white, which was obviously liked by her lord.

Putting down the curtain, whispering a few words to the two maids, came back to the outside room, nodded to Lu Bai and the others, and called Loulan and other girls to the outside room of the west room, and then asked: "What did you have for lunch? "

Earlier, he never thought that he would be left in the palace for dinner at noon. Although he knew that his lord would not be hungry, he was still worried.

"A lot," Lou Lan said respectfully in front of Xieyi, "The sisters here and sister Shanshan from the east courtyard have made a lot together, and the adults even praised one of the West Lake vinegar fish, saying that it is not easy to cook well. .”

Feeling relieved, Xieyi asked again: "When did you fall asleep?"

"I just slept not long ago," Lou Lan said, and seeing the inquiring eyes of Xieyi, she explained: "This morning, the guest sent a pair of dancers who are good at soft dancing. The adults watched it during dinner and liked it very much. They even named it. 'Red Crisp' and 'Huangteng', so I got excited, called the women who came in with the servants last time, and some of the women who came in these days, all named them with Song Ci."

As Loulan spoke, she motioned to Dongwu: "Like those two, one is called 'Liu Qiao' and the other is called 'Wu Ping'."

Unexpected, no evidence?
Which word is this?
Seeing the puzzled expression on Xieyi, Lou Lan explained: "I clicked casually this time, and didn't press a word. The former comes from Suzi's 'Materials and Spring Breeze Blows Drunk Awakening', and the latter is from that small banquet' After that, the brocade book will be sent, and the painting building will be finished." Clouds and rains have no proof'."

Freehand nod.

It just doesn't feel... like a girl's name.

However, my lord likes this kind of weird contrast, just like in front of me, 'Loulan' is not bad, and there are some, 'Stop', 'Kongliu', 'West Out', 'Zuiwo', and so on, It doesn't even sound like a name at first glance.

Ok……

The more you listen, the more interesting it becomes.

Lou Lan waited for a while, and then took the initiative to continue: "After naming the names, everyone persuaded the adults to rest, and the waiter He also said, and the adults ordered over there... Those two didn't go to sleep right away, and let the slaves go to the library to pick out the bed." I read the volume 'Shihuo·Tea' from Song Huiyao, and let them read it for a while, before I fell asleep for less than a quarter of an hour."

Xinyi thought of the book next to the sober woman's pillow just now, it seemed to be one of the set of "Song Huiyao" sent by Fang Guozhen before. Fang Zuocheng is a caring person. I made a horizontal arrangement that my adults like.

There are a lot of things going on in the house, I have already seen the adults, and I asked Lou Lan a few more questions, leaving Luoshui and Qingniang to guard here, while I and Liu Bai left to get busy.

When I returned to the main courtyard, I happened to ask about the presents from the guests in the morning.

Mainly from the three families in Zhangzhou, the Fang family sent a pair of dancers, who have been renamed 'Red Crisp' and 'Huang Teng' by their own adults. Both are sixteen, but not sisters.

It is said that he has learned dance for 12 years. This point can be discerned by just looking at the figures and postures of the two women.

Also understand, big price.

The Fang family can be described as sincere.

In addition, the Chai and Cui families sent a total of six paintings and calligraphy by famous artists, five of which were from the masters of calligraphy and painting in the previous dynasty, and there was also a contemporary painting "Tianmu Mountain Picture" titled by Wu Xing and Wang Meng.

This is a long scroll, two feet wide and more than ten feet long.

Xieyi knows that Wang Meng is a master of calligraphy and painting as famous as Huang Gongwang and Wu Zhen, and he is good at landscape themes.Moreover, unlike Huang Gongwang who has passed away, Wang Meng is still alive.

As for this long scroll, which was obviously very carefully thought out, Xinyi felt that it was probably...not accidental that it could be delivered.

Looking at these gifts again, those in Zhangzhou also had their pulse on their adults, and all the things they chose would be accepted here.

If it is gold and jewelry, my adults will not want it.

No shortage.

Thinking about it, I still have some regrets.

The two dancers took it away, but those calligraphy and paintings... will probably be donated by their adults in the future, and they will be used as a 'museum'.

It was also said that the row houses in the east courtyard would be turned into a treasure building. In this way, it would be difficult to hide it for decades.

Talking about it goes to talking about it, and freehand brushwork also understands it.

As the opening chapter of "A Dream of Red Mansions" said, one must know how to "shrink one's hands" and not "want to turn back" until "there is no way out".

For my family, money and goods are not important, too much will be cumbersome and even cause suspicion.At present...Xiyi privately feels that the most important thing is to secure the title of the county king first.

In the future, after all, it will be the successor of the offspring, who has won the title, and still has to be cautious in order to be rich in the long run.

Ok……

When it comes to the long term, Xieyi thinks of today.

The empress is very satisfied with them, otherwise she wouldn't have left a meal, and then... last night, the incident that my lord mentioned.There are four...five of them, roughly speaking, whoever has the eldest son first, even if he can't be promoted to the royal concubine, in the future...may be able to get a princess.

……

It was evening again when I woke up.

The fragrance of a strange woman.

After thinking about it, I remembered that the outside is 'materiality', and the inside is 'no proof'.They are all women in their 20s. This is a very old age. In the later years, women's elegance was in those days.

Caisang and Yue'er noticed the movement, lit candles, and Luoshui and Qingniang followed.

The mood just woke up was a little lazy, not in a hurry to get dressed, leaning against the arms of 'Wu Ping' behind her, pulled Qingniang over, grabbed the woman's chin and moved closer to her for a kiss, then asked with a smile: "How are you doing in the palace?" , you are so timid, have you been scared to cry?"

Qingniang blushed embarrassedly and shook her head: "No, I didn't cry." She said that she was worried that her adult would catch a cold, it was her own god, and her face was still being caught, but she stretched out her hand to wrap the quilt around the little man tightly, and at the same time Ruan Ruan said: "Listen...Father, hiding behind them, the empress didn't talk to Nu much."

"Stupid," Zhu Yuan shook his head: "Then you have lost a chance to show yourself!"

Qing Niang also shook her head: "Slaves don't show themselves."

"Well, I know how to keep a low profile, that's fine too," Zhu Yuan turned to Luoshui after talking about ignoring some silly woman, "When did you come back?"

"When Dad just fell asleep," Luo Shui also came closer, and took the initiative to explain: "Your Majesty and the slaves talked a lot, and asked about the two novels. I read "Swedish History" on the spot, and I praised it even more. After a few words, at noon, we stayed for dinner, and rewarded each of us with a pair of jade bracelets when we came back."

Zhu Yuan smiled and nodded.

In fact, knowing that the women were left to eat at noon, Zhu Yuan understood without asking, and the result was very good.

The level of the queen's empress is also considered to be over.

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuan was somewhat worried before, but Lao Zhu agreed, but... from Ma's standpoint, it's not a good thing that he doesn't want to get married.

Fortunately, the result is quite satisfactory.

Self-cultivation, regulating the family, governing the country and the world, the second hurdle, Qi family, probably doesn't need to bother too much in the future.

After talking, she began to get dressed and got up, and Luo Shui also mentioned that not only the jade bracelet, but also the fourth daughter brought back six cats this time.

Zhu Yuan didn't react for a moment.

After listening to Luo Shui's explanation, I realized that the palace has been buying cats recently, not only for their own use, but also as gifts to the clan's important officials.

As for the reason, I will remember it soon.

Related to epidemic prevention.

Lao Zhu's execution ability!
At the beginning, I told Lao Zhu that after I came back, it was also because I was too busy, so Zhu Yuan himself forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, Lao Zhu was still thinking about it.

So I couldn't help but feel that if I traveled earlier, I would compete with Lao Zhu on the same stage to compete for the world... There is a high probability, I'm afraid I won't be able to compete.

In fact, it is easy to compare.

In the original world structure, Lao Zhu was caught in the middle, and it seemed that he could have both sides, but another way of saying is that there are powerful enemies around, and he was wiped out if he didn't pay attention.Moreover, even if he gets a Yingtian, Lao Zhu has far fewer resources than Zhang Shicheng and Chen Youliang.

An even rarer one is that in this prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River, Lao Zhu has never been immersed in it from the beginning to the end. His strong self-control is a key to Lao Zhu's ability to win the world and rebuild China.

For comparison...

The most typical one was the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom, which was also established as its capital in Nanjing.

At the peak of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the territory spanned the territories of the three major feudal towns of 'Chen Youliang', 'Zhu Yuanzhang' and 'Zhang Shicheng' at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. At that time, the Qing court also lost the hearts of the world.As a result, after taking over Jinling, the entire upper echelon of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom quickly degenerated, and a good hand of cards was poorly played.
