Chapter 841: Rival in Love

Bi Ziyan listened to Zhu Xu's words, and faintly felt that this series of things was about to settle.

He didn't dare to 'stimulate' Zhu Xu, and tried his best to euphemistically say some of his ideas, especially the reform of the household department, he was cautious.

Zhu Xu listened to Bi Ziyan's words and refuted a lot.

First, Bi Ziyan is too anxious, some things have been done, second, he also has to protect Zhou Yingqiu and Fu Changzong, and third, the situation has changed too much, which will push some people who were originally stable to the side of 'instability'.

Bi Ziyan saw Zhu Xu's purpose clearly this time, and the response was not as heavy and difficult as in the past, and he bargained.

Zhu Xu could feel Bi Ziyan's desire for power and was anxious, on the contrary, he was very calm and not in a hurry.

The two of them left the royal courtyard one after the other and stopped at the door.

Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back, looked at the street, and said thoughtfully: "Master Bi, now the cabinet has a great responsibility, everything must be cautious, think twice, especially related to my Ming national economy and people's livelihood, we must investigate extensively, listen to different ideas, can't sit in the class room, take out the pen to make a decision, I learned a lot from this trip to Beijing, you also have to go out for a walk, take a look, and understand the real situation of my Daming......"

Bi Ziyan also felt that Da Ming was changing very quickly now, and raised his hand without hesitation and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Zhu Xu felt that it was almost over, and any more would be over, so he waved his hand and said, "Master Bi is going to get busy, we are estimated to be busy non-stop in the future." ”

"Yes." Bi Ziyan raised his hand with a heavy heart, although Zhu Xu didn't say much to him and expressed dissatisfaction, but his tone still revealed a strong sense of unhappiness, and I am afraid that the life of their cabinet will be even more difficult in the future.

Zhu Xu watched him leave, thinking in his heart that something had to be accelerated.

"Uncle Huang, shall we go to find my aunt now?" Xiao Yongning showed his little head and said with his little face up.

Zhu Xu glanced at her and said, "Well, let's go, you give me an honest life, if there are any more moths, I will hang you in Jingyang Palace for ten days and half a month." ”

The little girl suddenly wrinkled her nose and snorted.

Li Xiangjun pursed her lips, looked up at Zhu Xu with her face up, and kept blinking.

Zhu Xu led a group of people to walk back, calmly, and walked around Zhengyangmen Street.

The Zhang family did not live in the British Mansion, but in Jinchengfang, north of the Chenghuang Temple, that is, in the west of the city, near Fuchengmen.

A group of people bypassed Xuanwumen, entered Xuanwumen Street, and went straight to the north.

"Uncle Huang, people are going to Guangji Temple, they want to go to Baita Temple......"

Xiao Yongning was happy to jump up from a long distance, she wanted to go to these temples where incense was prosperous and prestigious for a long time, this time it was so close, she was a little impatient and excited.

Zhu Xu grabbed her collar and said, "Not today, another day." ”

The little girl pouted, and was unwillingly lifted by Zhu Xu.

Turning Fuchengmen Street, Zhu Xu and a group of people came to a courtyard, which looked very ordinary, and the plaque of 'Zhangfu' was also mottled and weathered.

Zhu Xu stood in front of the door and watched, pinching his chin with one hand, and muttered to himself: "Is this a blind date or an interview?" ”

Xiao Yongning was a little impatient, pulling the corner of Zhu Xu's clothes and said, "Uncle Huang, let's go in, the pastries made by my aunt are delicious, and everyone is hungry......"

Zhu Xu smiled and stepped forward in person, pulling the hoop and tapping on the door.

The door opened quickly, and the doorman looked at Zhu Xu very unfamiliarly, and before he could ask, Xiao Yongning had already crossed the threshold and greeted loudly: "Come in, I'll go find my aunt first." ”

As soon as the doorman heard this voice, he recognized that Princess Yongning was coming again, and he immediately looked anxious, regardless of Zhu Xu and the others, and hurriedly ran inside.

The last time Princess Yongning made trouble in Zhang's house, it was chickens and dogs jumping, so that the Zhang family couldn't raise their heads in the capital, and this time they didn't dare to be careless.

Zhu Xu was dried, blinked, touched his nose, and had to go in by himself.

Xiao Yongning was unimpeded, like a small whirlwind, straight to the show building of the two ladies of the Zhang family, and at the gate of the small courtyard, I saw a well-dressed scholar, who was facing the far door, and said bitterly: "Please tell the eldest lady, I am sincere to her, the sea is dry and rotten, and the infatuation will not change, I beg you, let us meet, just take a look at ......"

Xiao Yongning walked over, snorted, slapped the wooden door vigorously, and shouted: "Open the door quickly, this princess has come to see the little aunt, hurry up and open the door......"

It was silent for a while, and there was no sound for a long time.

The young man, who was quite delicate and fair, turned his head to look at Xiao Yongning, frowned, and said solemnly: "I am in love with the eldest lady, she will never enter the palace, please tell the emperor after the princess returns to the palace, the twisted melon is not sweet, don't do that stick to beat the mandarin ducks, and rob the people's daughter......s."

"I hate people like you the most, it's so sour......"

Xiao Yongning looked up at him and snorted: "Auntie doesn't like you at all, it's you who are stubborn, and what do you say about the two lovers...... Auntie, that's my imperial uncle's person, are you comparable to my imperial uncle? ”

The young man looked at Xiao Yongning, his brows furrowed and furrowed, and he still said: "I didn't want to be like a child, but when it comes to this, I have to make it clear to you, lest you go astray at a young age." Miss Zhang has never met the emperor, how can she ask her to marry a stranger? Besides, once she enters the palace, it is as deep as the sea, how can she stand it as a young girl? The emperor is the honor of the Ninety-Five, how can he be so lustful as to rob the people's girls to enter the palace, don't you know that the history books are like knives? ”

Xiao Yongning pursed his lips and said, "Didn't you say the life of your parents and the words of the matchmaker?" ”

The young man's expression was suddenly stunned, he looked at Xiao Yongning seriously, and said: "Then you have to be happy with each other, respect each other like guests, if you don't like it, how can you live a lifetime?" ”

The little guy looked at him and said, "That little aunt doesn't see you, it means that she doesn't like you, why are you still so stubborn, don't you know?" ”

The young man looked at Xiao Yongning, frowned and said, "Miss Zhang and I have never been courteous, and we are polite, how can we ever ruin Miss's reputation?" Besides, I can shine on the sun and the moon with a naked heart, so why am I afraid of people's words? ”

Xiao Yongning opened his small mouth, and he couldn't say anything in his stomach, so he immediately frowned and meditated.

Not long after, the door quietly opened, and a girl in green poked her head out, and when she saw Yongning, she was immediately overjoyed and said, "Princess, come in." ”

Xiao Yongning also showed joy when he saw her, and immediately puffed out his eyes and glared at the young man and said angrily: "The stones in the pit are smelly and hard, hurry up, otherwise you will be arrested and put in prison!" ”

The young man was just about to argue again, Xiao Yongning had already entered the courtyard with his little body sideways, and when he saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Second Miss, please also pass through, just say that Xiaosheng asks to see, please be sure to see the eldest lady, otherwise Xiaosheng will go on a hunger strike Mingzhi!" ”

There was no movement at all, only the wooden door of the prison was still viring.

The green-clothed lady was Zhang Shu, the second lady of the Zhang family, she pursed her lips and looked at Xiao Yongning, and asked as she walked: "Princess, shouldn't you sneak out again?" ”

Xiao Yongning grinned and said, "No, this princess is here to surprise my aunt today." ”

Zhang Shu blinked, her eyes flashed with curiosity, and said, "What surprise?" Could it be that the palace has already set a time to marry my sister? ”

Xiao Yongning puffed out his little face, his big eyes narrowed into a line, and he jumped up and ran towards the small building not far ahead.

Zhang Shu's eyes widened and exclaimed, "Really? ”

She stopped, her pretty face was overjoyed, her eyes flickered for a while, and she summoned a servant girl and whispered something.

The goddess's color changed slightly, and she hurriedly responded and left quickly.

After such a while, Xiao Yongning had already run to the Xiulou, and rushed to Zhang Yun, who was wearing red clothes and standing in front of the door, and shouted loudly: "Auntie, I came to see you......"

Zhang Yun was dressed in a red robe, not bloated, even more graceful, with a pretty face like water, clear eyes, watching Xiao Yongning rushing over, chuckling and shaking his head: "Princess, don't call it that anymore, otherwise I will really have no face to go out." ”

In fact, she is also worried in her heart, although the rumors from the palace are certain, but if there is really a case, she has no other way to live except for a dead will.

Xiao Yongning didn't care about this, and said with a small face: "Auntie, I'm hungry, I want to eat the pastries you made......"

Zhang Yun took Xiao Yongning's hand and said with a smile: "Come in, I just did some yesterday, by the way, how could the Queen Mother allow the princess to leave the palace on such a cold day?" ”

At this time, Zhang Shu also came in, and asked curiously: "Yes, I'm also strange, princess, didn't you sneak out again?" You hurt us last time, and my sister is still grounded......"

Xiao Yongning ate the pastry and completely ignored the two.

The two sisters glanced at each other, Zhang Yun sat opposite Yongning with some trepidation, poured her a cup of tea, and said softly: "Princess, the capital is not very calm now, don't mess around." ”

"Uh-huh." Xiao Yongning nodded, looking obedient.

Zhang Yun was just about to ask again, a middle-aged woman surrounded by seven or eight maids and women, quickly came to the Xiulou, and rushed to Yongning, the middle-aged woman smiled on her face, saluted Yongning, and said with a smile, "Zhang Li has seen the princess, welcome the princess to our house." ”

Xiao Yongning raised his head and glanced at her, then turned his head to look at Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun also looked puzzled, walked over and whispered, "Mother, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Li patted Zhang Yun's little hand, smiled more, sat opposite Yongning, and said, "Princess, but what does the Queen Mother have to tell the people's women?" ”

Xiao Yongning took a sip of tea, took down the pastry, blinked, and said innocently: "No." ”

Zhang Li was slightly stunned, looked at Xiao Yongning, and turned to Zhang Shu again.

Zhang Shu shook her head slightly, her eyes still looking at Xiao Yongning.

Zhang Yun also reacted at this time, her pretty face was slightly red, and she whispered in Zhang Li's ear: "Mother, don't say much......

The Zhang family has become a joke in the capital because of Xiao Yongning's nonsense before, and if it happens again, their Zhang family will have no face to see people.

Zhang Li was a little disappointed in his heart, his face stiffened, looked at Xiao Yongning, and said with a smile: "The princess sits down for a while, and I will let the princess go back early in a while, so as not to worry the queen mother." ”

"Oh,"

Xiao Yongning opened his eyes wide, and said with a very calm face: "I came out with Uncle Huang this time, and the queen mother won't worry." ”
