The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 84
The Royal Street in the afternoon was not crowded, even a little deserted.Yun Ruochen was bored sitting in the car, and occasionally lifted the curtain to look at the street view outside the window, but even after a few glances, he felt bored, so he gave up without waiting for the eyes of condemnation from Madam Zeng.

Yun Yao's clear crying seemed to still be lingering in her ears, and those "sister" voices were so childish that her heart almost melted into spring water.

Xia Hong was good at looking at colors, and seeing Yun Ruochen's dullness, she probably guessed what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "Princess, the young master is really close to you. The servant girl looked carefully, the young master and your appearance are quite different Seventy-eighth image."

Yun Ruochen gave a "huh", subconsciously raised the corners of his mouth: "Yeah, this kid is very close to me, although it's not common... You didn't see that when he was younger, every time he saw me, he always Going to climb on top of me."

She recalled that Yun Yao had just learned to turn over when she was three or four months old, and every time she went to say hello to Concubine Huang's room, Yun Yao would babble and crawl towards her.

It's just that at that time, Yun Yao hadn't shown any special closeness to her.This time, it is...

her brother.

Yun Ruochen's heart seemed to be filled with something, it seemed to be happy, but at the same time it seemed to be melancholy, even she herself couldn't explain why she suddenly became overwhelmed with emotion.

Maybe it was because I was lonely for too long in my previous life?

"By the way, Princess, isn't Miss Zhen teaching you how to embroider handkerchiefs recently? If you miss your little prince, why don't you embroider a Baifu apron for him too, so you can wear it when you are one year old."

After Xia Hong followed Yun Ruochen, she soon discovered that the princess preferred servants who were quick-witted and diligent.Moreover, although she is very assertive, she often listens to people's opinions on many irrelevant matters, so Xia Hong gradually developed a tacit understanding with her master, and made some small suggestions from time to time.

Hearing what Xia Hong said, Madam Zeng also said: "Xia Hong, that's a good suggestion. Princess, we have a folk custom in Daqing. When the child is one year old, the sisters and aunts in the family should all give some clothes and shoes. Accept Baifu's statement. The prince and Huang Niangniang must be very happy too."

When talking about "Huang Niangniang", Madam Zeng's tone paused a bit.Yun Ruochen raised his eyebrows and glanced at Nanny Zeng, then smiled and said nothing.

It seemed that her nanny also noticed something was wrong.Also, what kind of person Zeng Nanny is, she is very awake.

After getting along with each other these days, Nanny Zeng has become completely devoted to Yun Ruochen, and has completely connected herself with her little master for the rest of her life.

A loyal servant who thinks of you wholeheartedly is of course different from a servant who is at best doing an errand well.

"Okay, then I'll ask Miss Zhen to draw the pattern for me, and I'll embroider slowly, three months... Well, four months should be enough, right?" She didn't dare to have too much confidence in her female celebrity. .

"Enough is enough..." Both Xia Hong and Madam Zeng encouraged her with smiles, Yun Ruochen was relieved by them deliberately, and his mood became much more cheerful.

The three master and servant casually discussed which pattern would be better to embroider, but Yun Ruochen stopped talking suddenly, and raised a corner of the curtain to look out of the car window.

"Princess, what's the matter?"

"Well, it's okay, I think I heard Ah Che's voice..."

Yun Ruochen wasn't sure if he heard it wrong, so he opened the curtains further, and looked out sideways.

"Princess, this is not good..." Madam Zeng had just finished speaking, when Yun Ruochen suddenly said happily, "Hey, it's really Ah Che. There are two more gentlemen?"

On the side of Yujie, Gu Che was talking to Chang Shiyang and Tong Hao half a step behind when he suddenly saw a tall carriage stop in front of him and his party.

The three of them were stunned, but saw Yun Ruochen's familiar pretty face in the car window, smiling coquettishly.

"Mr. Chang, Mr. Tong!" She greeted the two lecturers first, and then asked Gu Che: "Ah Che, where are you going?"

Nanny Zeng failed to stop Yun Ruochen, so she could only sit on the side with a wry smile and kept silent.As for the little princess, she learned etiquette very quickly, and she was very polite in the palace and the prince's mansion, but sometimes she behaved willfully.well!

When Gu Che saw Yun Ruochen, he was overjoyed at first, but soon his face drooped and he stopped talking.

Yun Ruochen was very surprised, what happened to Gu Che?
But after learning that Chang Shiyang and Tong Hao were going to attend a literary meeting, while Gu Che was ordered by his grandfather to accompany him, she realized that Gu Che's constipated expression was indeed a true reflection of his heart!

It turned out that the official Muxiu today, Gu Ge, in order to thank the two lecturers for teaching his stubborn grandson to grow a lot, specially hosted a banquet for the two in the big restaurant "Tinghua Pavilion" on Yujie.

The two lecturers were flattered, what is Gu Ge's status in the court now?It's such an honor to actually take the initiative to invite my two little Hanlins to dinner.

As far as Mr. Gu Yuan is concerned, he is a bit different.Generally, the big shots in the imperial court are very self-respecting, so there is no reason for the elders to invite Hanlin to dinner.However, he insisted on "respecting the teacher and respecting the way", regardless of the fact that some people might criticize him for losing points, he still sent a post to the two of them.

Yun Ruochen's respect for Elder Gu Ge also stems from his noble personality.

Although this old gentleman is sometimes quite pedantic, has a bad temper, and has... some abilities, but his level of performance is uneven, and he cannot be said to be particularly capable.But there is one thing, he is a real gentleman.

It is also because of a kind mother like Concubine Hu Xian and an upright teacher like Mr. Gu Ge that her father did not grow into a distorted personality like King Cheng.

All in all, both the host and guest enjoyed this meal of Mr. Gu Ge's.

However, after lunch, the two speakers left, saying that they were going to attend a literary meeting nearby, but Elder Gu asked them to bring Gu Che with them.

"You don't need to say that Ah Che is a child of my family, just say that he is an ordinary disciple. Take him to see the world!"

Mr. Gu Ge said this in command sentences.How can the two disagree?
Besides, it's very common to bring a disciple to participate in the literary meeting.

Except for student Gu Che, everyone is very happy...

How much Gu Che wanted to jump up and say "I'm not going" like he did to Tong Hao last time.But the life of studying in the palace had a huge impact on his temperament.

He didn't want to disobey his grandfather's order in front of outsiders - he also understood that if people saw that his grandfather refused to listen to his own grandson, it might affect his prestige in the court, right?

Gu Che was just being straightforward, not really willful.For the sake of Gu Ge's face, he could only smile and follow the two teachers down the Tinghua Pavilion, and headed for the "Sanyuan Building" in the next street.

None of the three of them expected that they would meet the little princess who came out of the Prince's Mansion on the way.

"Wenhui..."

Yun Ruochen showed a fascinated expression.

It's really the honey of the first and the arsenic of the second.Gu Che was afraid of avoiding Wenhui, but she really wanted to go and have fun, but it was really a headache for her to have such a bunch of followers around her.

"Princess, we should go."

Nanny Zeng couldn't bear it anymore, and decided to fulfill her legal duty of nurturing a nanny, and made guiding suggestions on the words and deeds of the princess.

Yun Ruochen looked at the three people outside the car, then looked back at Madam Zeng, and suddenly said, "Mama, the gate of the palace doesn't close until evening, right?"

what?

Both Nanny Zeng and Xia Hong were dumbfounded, screaming inwardly.

What is going to happen to the little princess again?
If Lian Zhi and Yin Qiao were present, they would have said in unison: "It's that annoying Gu Che again! Nothing good will happen when he appears!"

Sadly, that's the truth...

Half an hour later, Sanyuan Building.

The economy and culture of the Qing Dynasty had actually developed to a fairly high level.For example, the catering industry is very developed in the capital, and there are no less than dozens of large restaurants on the main road of Yujie Street alone.

These restaurants are very high-end, and they are all buildings with more than three floors, and they are all quite large.Naturally, those who can open restaurants in the capital have more or less black and white backgrounds behind them.It has long been an open secret that the behind-the-scenes owners of many restaurants are relatives of the emperor.

But among these many restaurants, Sanyuanlou is still outstanding.

Sanyuan Building is located in the east of Yujie Street. In fact, it is not just a building, but a complex of several large and small restaurants.Among them, the Zhuangyuan Building is as high as five stories, covering a vast area with carved beams and painted buildings. It is a high-end entertainment and dining place that all the dignitaries and nobles in the capital love to set foot in.

Even Yun Ruochen had heard the name of Sanyuanlou more than once.

And the name of the family is well chosen, Sanyuan Jidi, how auspicious it is!Candidates who rushed to the capital from all over the world, who doesn't yearn for the title of the gold list, and see the flowers on the long street?Such a luxurious and auspicious hotel, if you don't come, you will be ashamed to say that you are a freshman...

Correspondingly, the supply of boxes here is also in short supply, and the higher the level, the harder it is to reserve a box.Today, however, someone booked five large boxes on the fifth floor at one go, and asked people to remove all the screens in the boxes, completely opening up into an open party hall.

Hundreds of scholars sat on dozens of rosewood round tables, drinking tea and chatting leisurely, brewing emotions for the upcoming literary meeting.

Naturally, it is impossible for them to sit around casually.Generally speaking, people gather together according to their place of origin, such as a few tables in Hebei, a few tables in southwest, and a few tables in southeast. In this large category, they sit next to each other according to county affiliation or friendship.

They are all candidates who came to take the exam, and their quality must not be much worse.And because there are so many people, it is even more important to take care of their own face, and those who are domineering in their hometown have restrained their temper.Hundreds of people sat in the hall, but it didn't seem noisy, and the scene looked very harmonious.

Among the crowd, there were some people who received special attention, of course, those Hanlin and celebrities who were invited to comment on the essay meeting.These are the darlings of fate who have passed the narrow bridge—at least compared to those who have not yet passed the exam. They are naturally honored as "Teacher So-and-so" and "Mr. So-and-so". , I don't know where to lose the cautious and cautious look I usually get when I feel Shangfeng's cowardice in the yamen.

"Ah, Mr. Yuanshan, Mr. Shuhan, are you two here?"

Sharp-eyed people caught sight of Chang Shiyang and Tong Hao going up the stairs, and rushed to greet them.

And behind these two gentlemen, there are two childish teenagers, one tall and one short.The shorter one looks handsome like a girl.

"This is Wenhui..."

Yun Ruochen curiously walked beside Gu Che, and looked around.

Well, there are a lot of people!
