Dragon Pattern Roll Set
Chapter 145 [Rumors are fiercer than tigers]
In the afternoon, Bao Zheng went to the palace, and when he came back, he dragged Pang Ji, who was full of foam because of getting angry.
Bao Zheng scolded him as he walked, "Your girl is not born to you, just look at you!"
Pang Ji curled his lips, "I said, what do you know, Lao Bao? Do you have a daughter? Of course it will be easy to raise a boy. My daughter is pregnant in October!"
Bao Zheng looked up at the sky and didn't even bother to tell him, "Nonsense, which mother didn't give birth until she was pregnant in October?!"
"Oh... I'm so confused, I won't quarrel with you." Grand Master Pang looked pale, "Old Bao, do you have any delicious food in your house? I didn't eat lunch, and I'm hungry now."
Bao Zheng was helpless, "You don't know how to eat so many delicious things in the palace."
"Don't criticize me, can you? The old man hasn't been stimulated enough!" Grand Master Pang sighed.
Bao Zheng thought for a while and asked, "Didn't you secretly ask Mr. Gongsun to check Concubine Pang's pulse? Boy or girl?"
Hearing this, the grand master sighed, stretched out two fingers and twisted them together to move.
Bao Zheng blinked and imitated his action, "What does this mean?"
"It means no handles, she is a daughter." The grand master replied.
"Oh..." Bao Zheng nodded and asked, "Does the emperor know?"
Pang Ji nodded, "Understood."
"Don't be downcast, isn't the eldest princess good?" Bao Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Look at the excitement of the emperor, he likes girls."
"Oh, I know... I'm afraid that my daughter will be unhappy, and you also know that she will be strong." The grand master said, with an expectant expression on his face again, "How likely is it that Mr. Gongsun accidentally made a wrong diagnosis? If a If my son..."
"If it's a son, you should send more guards to guard your daughter and grandson, so it's okay to be favored and give birth to a son?" Bao Zheng patted Taishi Pang's stomach, "The safety of mother and daughter is the most important thing."
The grand master then sighed, "It's also..."
Leading the dejected Taishi Pang into the Kaifeng mansion, Bao Zheng turned around and found that there were only government servants and servants in the Kaifeng mansion, as well as the cat in Zhan Zhao's yard... Where are the people?
Bao Zheng asked Xiaoyu who was holding a plate of grapes, "Where is Zhan guarding them?"
"My lord, everyone is in Longtu Pavilion." Xiaoyu said, "I'm delivering grapes to them."
"Miss Xiaoyu." The grand master approached shyly, "Is there anything to eat? I'm starving to death."
Xiaoyu made the grand master amused, handed the plate to Xiao Cui who was holding bayberries behind her, and ran to the kitchen... After a while, a serving of fried noodles was brought to the grand master.
"Oh!" The grand master was full of admiration, "How come your Kaifeng mansion's fried noodles are so delicious?!"
"Of course it's delicious. It's full of good things. The empty island sent a lot of prawns. The tails are as big as plums when the heads are removed!" The grand master took two bites, and Xiao Cui handed him a cup of tea.
Grand Master Pang was moved, and looked at Bao Zheng with tears in his eyes, "Why is the tea so fragrant?"
"That's the top Pu'er sent from Yunnan by the fifth master!"
Grand Master Pang looked at Bao Zheng who was also drinking tea to moisten his throat, "It's so good... With Fifth Lord Bai, life is no worse than in the palace!"
Mr. Bao thought about it, and felt that it was the same... Although his treatment in Kaifeng Mansion was not bad, but after Bai Yutang came, it seems that the big guy's food is better.
"Alas..." The Grand Master sighed again, "No wonder they all said that in the entire Kaifeng City, except for my daughter, Zhan Huwei is the best person to marry."
"puff……"
As soon as the grand master spoke, Master Bao sprayed Pu'er on his face.
Xiaoyu and Xiaocui held back their laughter, and ran away holding grapes and plums.
"Let me tell you, Fatty!" Lord Bao told Grand Master Pang, "It's fine if you say this in front of me, but don't say it to the guards with your white eyes!"
The grand master rolled his eyes, and said to himself that you are the only one!You have the whitest eyes in the entire Kaifeng mansion and you have the nerve to talk about others.
"Guard Zhan has just gotten better in the past two days, so it's uncertain what will happen if you get excited!" Master Bao was a little worried.
Grand Master Pang looked surprised, "Ah? What's the matter with Zhanwei?"
Bao Zheng looked up to the sky, anyway, now the Grand Master doesn't know anything except girls and children!
After the Grand Master finished eating, he said he would go to digest food with Bao Zheng, and take a look at his son, who was busy taking care of Concubine Pang, and Pang Yu hadn't seen him for a long time.
Bao Zheng didn't forget to remind him, "Marquis Anle has let me live here for half a year, remember to pay for the food later."
The grand master raised his face and thought, "Has it been that long?"
"That's not true." Bao Zheng seriously threatened him, "Think about it, Concubine Pang is ten months pregnant, and I gave you three months less."
"Oh...that's it." The grand master nodded, obviously he couldn't turn his head at this time.
Longtu Pavilion is still very majestic, and you can smell the fragrance of books from a long distance.
An old man with white hair and beard was sweeping the dust at the door, not far away was Xiao Wu stretching himself, this tiger, like a big lazy cat.It used to be that the government servants in Kaifeng and the students of Taixue felt weak when they saw Xiao Wu, and many of them cried in fright, but after getting along for a while, everyone no longer regarded him as a tiger, and directly treated him as a big cat. hug.There were rats in the kitchen that day, and the lady in the kitchen grabbed Xiao Wu by the ear and asked him, "Why did you go at night? You didn't catch any rats?"
So Zhan Zhao covered his ears, thinking, fortunately, everyone didn't take his reputation as Royal Cat seriously.
"Master Bao."
When the old man looked up and saw Bao Zheng, he smiled wrinkled all over his face, and greeted Grand Master Pang again.
"Master Chen, are Zhanwei and them all there?" Bao Zheng also greeted the old man.
"I'm here." Mr. Chen nodded vigorously, "What are they doing? A large group of people seem to want to settle down in Longtu Pavilion. Wasn't Zhan Huwei most afraid of entering Longtu Pavilion to feed bookworms before? "
"Hehe." Master Bao laughed dryly, how should I put it, the guard Zhan is still in retreat, probably trying to learn from the pain and cultivate his character.
"My Yu'er is also reading?" Pang Ji asked.
Master Chen nodded, "Yes."
Taishi Pang held his chin and stared wide-eyed, this is an anecdote!Yu'er of his family actually reads a book!Sure enough, because Kaifeng mansion has good feng shui and lives with Wenquxing every day, is it that all the people raised are gentle people?I don't know if Yu'er will become the No. [-] Scholar Guangzong Yaozu in a few years from now on with Laobao's fairy spirit!
After thinking about it, the grand master leaned over and said to Bao Zheng, "I'll give you Yu'er's living expenses and food expenses later, and you let him let you stay in Kaifeng for seven or eight years?"
The corner of Bao Zheng's mouth twitched, and he looked at him, "Why don't you let him have my surname?"
"Go!" Grand Master Pang gave him a blank look, and went to look at his son shaking his stomach.
Master Bao shook his head helplessly, and was about to walk in when a person beside him fell down with a "swoosh" and saluted him, "Master Bao."
Bao Zheng took a look and nodded, "Duo Luo."
"The Eighth Prince invites you to enter the palace together to discuss important matters." Duo Luo said.
Bao Zheng was stunned, and pointed to himself, "I just came back from the palace, what's the matter?"
Doro shook his head, "I don't know the specific subordinates, but it seems to be related to the birthday celebration."
"Oh..." Bao Zheng understood.Concubine Pang is about to give birth. Anyway, this is the first one. The emperor and the queen mother both advocated celebrating it, but Zhao Zhenchu didn't have the time to be a father, so he left it to the Eighth Prince to take care of it.It is easy for the people in this city to celebrate, but it is estimated that the envoys from various countries are troublesome.
Master Bao nodded, "Then I'll go there right away."
……
Letting go of Master Bao and the Eighth Prince entering the palace together, we are not going to mention it, just talk about the Grand Master.
After the grand master entered the Longtu Pavilion, he saw the long desks in the yard full of books.Gongsun was standing by the table and sorting according to a catalogue. The fourth son and Xiao Liang were standing on the table. Gongsun gave a title and said that one should be put there, and the fourth son found the book from the pile of books. Books are put where they belong.
And behind each pile of books that Xiao Liang placed, there was a person "studying hard".
Grand Master Pang took a glance and found that almost everyone in Kaifeng Mansion had come except Lin Yehuo.
Bao Yan and Pang Yu took two small benches and sat beside a banana tree. There were a lot of books in front of them. Bao Yan's one was relatively high-end, and it was all bamboo slips. Pang Yu just read the picture album.
The corner of Grand Master Pang's mouth twitched—the gap!Inexplicably, "the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, the son of a dragon and a phoenix and a phoenix make a hole in the ground" and so on whirled in his mind, causing the grand master to shake his head.
Zhao Pu and the others also came, and it was really difficult for this great general to bring Long Qiaoguang, Ouyang Shaozheng and Zou Liang to flip through the book together.
Su Qing yawned and looked at a scroll.
Tianzun seemed to be on a errand, standing by a Taihu Lake stone, holding up a sign to reward, while Yin Hou was dozing off behind him.
The most interesting ones are Zhanshow and Baiyutang.
Zhan Zhao leaned against a tree, and Bai Yutang leaned against a tree. The two seemed to be looking at two maps from different periods.
Bai Yutang reported "Su County", Zhan Zhao glanced at it, "It's still there."
"Ge County?" Bai Yutang went on to report.
After Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes and searched around, he made a note in the little notebook, "Oh, this is gone."
The grand master looked very fresh, leaned over and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Ah! Dad!" Pang Yu jumped up so high that he rushed over to grab the Grand Master, "Is my sister giving birth?"
Grand Master Pang looked up at the sky and knocked on his forehead, "Your sister will have at least ten days to give birth."
"Oh..." Pang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
The grand master asked again, "What are you investigating?"
"Oh, we want to check information on counties that disappeared in the past dynasties." Gongsun replied.
Grand Master Pang blinked, "The counties disappeared in the past?"
"Yes." Gongsun nodded, "It's the counties or villages that have suddenly disappeared over the years."
The grand master blinked, looked at the thick pile of books, "Is that how you are looking for it?"
Everyone nodded.
Zhao Pu yawned, "That's too much."
The corner of the Grand Master's mouth twitched, "Don't you know that there are forms in the library in the palace for the change of place names and the migration of residents?"
Everyone stopped the books in their hands and looked up at the Grand Master, "Is there such a thing?"
The grand master was speechless, "Nonsense! Otherwise, how would you manage the territory of the Song Dynasty? There is a special person to sort it out!"
Everyone opened their mouths wide and turned to look at the door together.
Seeing old man Chen walking in slowly with a broom on his shoulders, he looked at the crowd with a smile, "Oh? You are still here, just in time, help me to dry the books, the local chronicles are usually least read by people, huh, huh."
Everyone was grinding their teeth watching the old man leisurely going to drink tea - on purpose!The old man must know, it was on purpose!
Grand Master Pang stretched his waist, sat down beside Pang Yu and ate the red bayberry on the table.
Bao Yan leaned over and asked, "Teacher."
"Huh?" The grand master smiled and nodded, thinking that this baby's skin is tender and fleshy, which is much more pleasing to the eye than that bag of sunspots.
"Have you heard of the legend of the fire phoenix and fire dragon?" Bao Yan asked.
The Grand Master was stunned, touched his chin and raised his face, "Fire Phoenix and Fire Dragon?"
Pang Yu went over to pat Bao Yan, "Little Mantou, even your father doesn't know, what's the use of asking my father."
Pang Yu was beaten before he finished speaking, Pang Ji was so angry, why did he turn his elbow outward!
"Well, your mother might know." The grand master said in astonishment.
Pang Yu pointed to his nose, "My mother? Which one?"
"Your aunt!" Pang Ji glared at him.
Everyone looked at each other—Grandma Huyan.
Zhao Pu was curious, "Madam Pang knows?"
"Well, there seem to be many kinds of phoenix fans. They prepare some clothes every year. They are so beautiful... But once your mother lost her temper and scolded an embroidery worker, do you remember?" Pang Ji asked Pang Yu.
Pang Yu raised his face, "My aunt often loses her temper, which time?"
"Look at your little memory. Once your mother showed your sister a phoenix shawl, and one of the phoenixes turned into a fire phoenix. Your mother scolded the people in the embroidery workshop and said they would set them on fire. I went to the embroidery workshop. Later, the embroiderer took it back and changed it, and your mother didn’t let your sister use that cloak, so it’s unlucky.”
After being reminded by Pang Ji, Pang Yu remembered, "It seems that there is such a thing."
"Miss Huyan knows that the fire phoenix is an unlucky symbol?" Zhan Zhao asked.
"That's what she said. Anyway, we have never used dragons, but phoenixes are often embroidered. Fire phoenixes are absolutely not allowed." Grand Master Pang continued to eat red bayberries, and asked Ouyang Shaozheng for a drink.
"Is Mrs. Huyan in Pang's residence?" Zou Liang suddenly asked Pang Ji, "May I visit?"
"Yo!" Grand Master Pang hurriedly stood up, thinking it was not easy!General Zou has spoken! "The wives of my family are all in the palace. If you go to the library in the palace, ask Yu'er to call and tell her to wait for you in the side hall."
Everyone thought it was feasible, so they wanted to enter the palace, but Zhan Zhao continued to lean on the rattan chair with the book in his arms, and refused to get up.
The fourth son tugged at the hem of his clothes, "Maomao, let's go together!"
"Don't go out." Zhan Zhao was depressed.
The fourth son was anxious, "Maomao. Several new restaurants have opened in Kaifeng in the past few days! There are so many delicious foods!"
The corners of Zhan Zhao's mouth twitched, and he glanced at Bai Yutang with some resentment—look at how you have shaped my image, even the fourth son wants to lure me with food!
"Oh, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, those who propose marriage have already given up and retreated, Mr. Wang told me this morning..." The grand master comforted Zhan Zhao by chewing on a plum, but he didn't notice that the people around him were winking at him.
Pang Yu quietly tugged on his father's sleeve, which means - don't talk nonsense!
Zhan Zhao blinked and asked the Grand Master, "What did Master Wang say?"
Everyone looked at the grand master together.
Zhan Zhao has been squinting in the Kaifeng Mansion for the past few days, and the information from the outside is basically passed on to him by everyone. Sometimes he will ask gossip, what are the rumors these days?Usually everyone will tell him—it’s almost there, and it’s almost gone.
But in fact, the rumors about the relationship between Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang in the imperial city these days are unbelievable.
In the early years, the princes and brothers of Kaifeng Mansion were often ranked by others, such as "Top Ten Young Masters that Kaifeng Girls Most Want to Marry", "Twenty Golden Bachelors in Kaifeng Mansion", "Top Ten Most Potential Talents in Kaifeng" and so on. ...
But for some unknown reason, Bai Yutang suddenly appeared in Kaifeng, and he still lived there all the time, so overnight, this kind of list disappeared for some unknown reason, replaced by the sentence, "If you want to marry, marry Bai Yutang".
The only ones who can compare with Bai Yutang in the limelight are Zhan Zhao, who is loved by everyone in Kaifeng, and the great general Zhao Pu.It's just that Bai Yutang has a prerequisite that neither of them have, and that is to be rich!And it's very rich!Therefore, Fifth Master seemed to be the person most girls in Kaifeng wanted to marry.
But the latest rumors are... a little weird.
When the Grand Master saw Zhan Zhao asked, he said cheerfully, "He originally wanted to ask you to ask if Fifth Lord is interested in meeting his daughter."
As soon as the grand master said that, Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, and then thought seriously—the daughter of Mr. Wang's family... the talented Wang Yao?Knowing the book, Dali, Xiuwaihuizhong or something.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang supported his forehead.
The grand master didn't wink yet, so he continued cheerfully, "My lord Wang said, if the fifth master is not interested in meeting you, you can also meet him. Anyway, he likes both of them."
Zhan Zhao blinked, this time it was Bai Yutang's turn to raise his eyebrows.
"He told me this morning, luckily he didn't ask you, otherwise he would be shameless." The grand master smiled and patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder, "Oh, the fat and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders, haha... um. "
Before he finished speaking, Pang Yu covered the Grand Master's mouth, "Father, aren't you going to enter the palace? Let's go!" After speaking, he dragged the Grand Master and ran away.
"Oh, your father and I just came back..." The Grand Master was dragged out of LongTu Pavilion's courtyard by Pang Yu.
Zhan Zhao tilted his head, looked at the crowd, and they looked up at the sky together, pretending that nothing happened.
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang suspiciously again, feeling that something was being concealed from him.
But Bai Yutang gave Zhan Zhao a tug, and muttered in a low voice, "Let's go, if you don't go out for a stroll, you're really going to be a lady."
"What?" Zhan Zhao didn't hear clearly, "What is it?"
"It's nothing." Bai Yutang shook his head.
Zhan Zhao followed him out, "I clearly heard you talking about turtles..."
Bai Yutang rubbed his neck, "The weather is nice."
Zhan Zhao raised his face and looked at the sunny weather just after the rain, this...is not bad.
After stepping out of Kaifeng Mansion, Zhan Zhao felt that the sun was so glaring!
"An illusion?!" Zhan Zhao raised his hand to cover his eyes.
On the side, Gongsun hugged the fourth son and reminded him, "It's just that the sun has dissipated from the dark clouds."
Zhan Zhao looked up, and the fourth son and others were also covering their eyes.
"Ahem." Guard Zhan forced himself to be calm, and walked forward with his head held high, but he didn't look sideways!
The streets of Kaifeng are still full of people coming and going, Zhan Zhao wears his blue gown and walks beside Bai Yutang in order to keep a low profile, trying not to attract too much attention.
"Yo, Mr. Zhan, I haven't seen you for more than a month. Did you go home to visit relatives?" The aunt selling fishball noodles greeted Zhan Zhao.
The uncle at the cold noodle shop next door, who cuts the cucumber shreds, also laughed, "I went to see my in-laws, haha."
"Come here, have a steamed stuffed bun! This steamed stuffed stuffed bun is very popular recently!" The aunt who sold steamed stuffed buns next door stuffed a steamed stuffed bun into Zhan Zhao's hand.
Zhan Zhao blinked, looked at the peanut-shaped bun in his hand, and wondered if this aunt had strangled her bun with a belt?The waist is so thin?
"This is called a family bun, it's best for two to share..." Before the aunt finished speaking, Bai Yutang grabbed half of the peanut-shaped bun in Zhan Zhao's hand, and walked away while chewing.
Zhan Zhao looked at the remaining half of the bean paste bun, and the neighbors all smiled.
When Zhan Zhao gnawed on the bean paste bun and walked towards the palace with Bai Yutang, he saw passers-by on the street covering their mouths and whispering.
Zhan Zhao vaguely heard...
"It seems to be true!"
"It's all divided into family members, can it be fake?"
"Tsk! Don't let the fat water flow into the fields of outsiders!"
"By the way, how long has it been since Guard Zhan came out?"
"It's been over a month."
The more Zhan Zhao listened, the more puzzled he became, he stretched out his hand and tugged at Bai Yutang's sleeve.
It was just an action that Zhan Zhao would do normally, but suddenly... a group of girls gathered on the second floor, screaming, and Zhan Zhao flinched in fright.
Bai Yutang turned his head, stretched out his hand and tugged at Zhan Zhao's sleeve, which meant - let's go quickly.
So, under the gaze of everyone, Zhan Zhao could be considered to have come to the palace.
When I first entered the palace, I saw many officials.
Lord Bao and the Eighth Prince just asked some officials to study the matter of entertaining envoys.
When the officials went out and saw Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, they all cupped their hands, "Hey, congratulations."
The corner of Zhan Zhao's mouth twitched.
Seeing Bai Yutang politely return the salute.
Zhan Zhao dragged him into an alley beside him.
The others didn't bother to pay attention to them, and continued to look for Empress Huyan in the harem. Gongsun was very interested in the palace's library.
"What did they say congratulations?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled.
Bai Yutang shook his head, "I don't know."
"I don't know how you return gifts?" Zhan Zhao opened his eyes wide.
Bai Yutang took it for granted, "You must be polite."
Zhan Zhao opened his mouth, he didn't think of words to refute him for a long time, and finally thought, "Forget it! Whatever you like!" After speaking, he turned and left.
But within two steps, Bai Yutang grabbed him.
Zhan Zhao turned his head, and Bai Yutang pointed in the opposite direction, "You went the wrong way, you came in from that way just now."
Embarrassed, Zhan Zhao turned his head and continued to walk out with his head held high.
The two were walking when they heard a commotion in the palace, and someone shouted, "There are assassins!"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned.
At this moment, I saw Nangong Ji chasing him out with someone.
Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to scratch his head, and a man in black fell beside him, with a long sword on Zhan Zhao's neck.
Zhan Zhao blinked and looked aside.
Nangong Ji and a group of guards also stopped in front, looking at the masked assassin who "held" Zhan Zhao with a knife with a complicated expression.
Zhan Zhao glanced at the assassin, "Girl, is there anything you can't think about?"
The assassin glared at Zhan Zhao, who was taken aback by the glance, and wondered how come he was so poor because of his handsome appearance?Then puzzled, "How do you know I'm a woman?"
Zhan Zhao didn't answer, but pointed to Bai Yutang who was watching the fun with his arms folded, "Why do you want to hold me hostage instead of him?"
Seeing that Zhan Zhao was being held hostage, the female assassin was still chattering, she turned her blade upwards, and warned Zhan Zhao, "Be quiet!"
Zhan Zhao was dissatisfied, "I look very honest so you don't hold him hostage and hold me hostage?!"
The female assassin was confronting Nangong right now, and she didn't understand why Zhan Zhao talked so much, so she got angry, "You look the weakest, whoever you want to tie!"
As soon as she spoke, everyone gasped.
Hearing the commotion, Zhao Pu and the others who turned their heads to look back happened to hear this sentence, and they all stood where they were, looking at the assassin with regret.
Even Bai Yutang looked at the assassin with a complicated expression, he was so kind...
At this moment, several men in black appeared in the room, and one of them yelled at the girl, "Feiyan! Go!"
The girl was taken aback, and looked up to see three men in black on the roof. She was delighted, "Brother, you are all right..."
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched again—this quality was brought out to be an assassin?Is it really okay...
"It's cheap for you today!" The girl called "Feiyan" pushed Zhan Zhao forward, which meant that she wanted to jump into the room and escape, but the man in black who she called "Brother" yelled ,"careful."
It's just that the girl couldn't move before she had time to react.
Look again, Zhan Zhao is dangling her sword between two fingers, looking up at the three people on the roof.
The three exchanged a look, turned around and wanted to leave.
But the moment they turned around, Zhan Zhao had already appeared in front of them.
The three of them were startled, Zhan Zhao raised his feet and kicked them off the roof.
The three of them fell at the feet of the flying swallow, and before they could get up, Zhan Zhao had already landed beside them, raised his hand and "swiped" his sleeves three times, and the three of them were acupointed and unable to move.
"Brother..." The girl was also dumbfounded, and froze in place, looking at the three men in black on the ground.
Her brother was also quite helpless, "What are you doing here!"
"Do I want to help..." the girl wept.
The three men in black sighed, and said to themselves—if you want to help, pick someone to kidnap, so many people don't pick Zhan Zhao...
Nangong Ji came over to thank Zhan Zhao, and asked the guards to take all four of them down.
Zhan Zhao asked Nangong curiously, "Are they going to assassinate the emperor?"
Nangong shook his head, also a little confused, "No, they want to kidnap Grand Master Pang."
Zhan Zhao opened his mouth wide, "Why tie the Grand Master?"
Nangong spread his hands, indicating that they didn't know, and waited for Mr. Bao to interrogate.
Bao Zheng scolded him as he walked, "Your girl is not born to you, just look at you!"
Pang Ji curled his lips, "I said, what do you know, Lao Bao? Do you have a daughter? Of course it will be easy to raise a boy. My daughter is pregnant in October!"
Bao Zheng looked up at the sky and didn't even bother to tell him, "Nonsense, which mother didn't give birth until she was pregnant in October?!"
"Oh... I'm so confused, I won't quarrel with you." Grand Master Pang looked pale, "Old Bao, do you have any delicious food in your house? I didn't eat lunch, and I'm hungry now."
Bao Zheng was helpless, "You don't know how to eat so many delicious things in the palace."
"Don't criticize me, can you? The old man hasn't been stimulated enough!" Grand Master Pang sighed.
Bao Zheng thought for a while and asked, "Didn't you secretly ask Mr. Gongsun to check Concubine Pang's pulse? Boy or girl?"
Hearing this, the grand master sighed, stretched out two fingers and twisted them together to move.
Bao Zheng blinked and imitated his action, "What does this mean?"
"It means no handles, she is a daughter." The grand master replied.
"Oh..." Bao Zheng nodded and asked, "Does the emperor know?"
Pang Ji nodded, "Understood."
"Don't be downcast, isn't the eldest princess good?" Bao Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Look at the excitement of the emperor, he likes girls."
"Oh, I know... I'm afraid that my daughter will be unhappy, and you also know that she will be strong." The grand master said, with an expectant expression on his face again, "How likely is it that Mr. Gongsun accidentally made a wrong diagnosis? If a If my son..."
"If it's a son, you should send more guards to guard your daughter and grandson, so it's okay to be favored and give birth to a son?" Bao Zheng patted Taishi Pang's stomach, "The safety of mother and daughter is the most important thing."
The grand master then sighed, "It's also..."
Leading the dejected Taishi Pang into the Kaifeng mansion, Bao Zheng turned around and found that there were only government servants and servants in the Kaifeng mansion, as well as the cat in Zhan Zhao's yard... Where are the people?
Bao Zheng asked Xiaoyu who was holding a plate of grapes, "Where is Zhan guarding them?"
"My lord, everyone is in Longtu Pavilion." Xiaoyu said, "I'm delivering grapes to them."
"Miss Xiaoyu." The grand master approached shyly, "Is there anything to eat? I'm starving to death."
Xiaoyu made the grand master amused, handed the plate to Xiao Cui who was holding bayberries behind her, and ran to the kitchen... After a while, a serving of fried noodles was brought to the grand master.
"Oh!" The grand master was full of admiration, "How come your Kaifeng mansion's fried noodles are so delicious?!"
"Of course it's delicious. It's full of good things. The empty island sent a lot of prawns. The tails are as big as plums when the heads are removed!" The grand master took two bites, and Xiao Cui handed him a cup of tea.
Grand Master Pang was moved, and looked at Bao Zheng with tears in his eyes, "Why is the tea so fragrant?"
"That's the top Pu'er sent from Yunnan by the fifth master!"
Grand Master Pang looked at Bao Zheng who was also drinking tea to moisten his throat, "It's so good... With Fifth Lord Bai, life is no worse than in the palace!"
Mr. Bao thought about it, and felt that it was the same... Although his treatment in Kaifeng Mansion was not bad, but after Bai Yutang came, it seems that the big guy's food is better.
"Alas..." The Grand Master sighed again, "No wonder they all said that in the entire Kaifeng City, except for my daughter, Zhan Huwei is the best person to marry."
"puff……"
As soon as the grand master spoke, Master Bao sprayed Pu'er on his face.
Xiaoyu and Xiaocui held back their laughter, and ran away holding grapes and plums.
"Let me tell you, Fatty!" Lord Bao told Grand Master Pang, "It's fine if you say this in front of me, but don't say it to the guards with your white eyes!"
The grand master rolled his eyes, and said to himself that you are the only one!You have the whitest eyes in the entire Kaifeng mansion and you have the nerve to talk about others.
"Guard Zhan has just gotten better in the past two days, so it's uncertain what will happen if you get excited!" Master Bao was a little worried.
Grand Master Pang looked surprised, "Ah? What's the matter with Zhanwei?"
Bao Zheng looked up to the sky, anyway, now the Grand Master doesn't know anything except girls and children!
After the Grand Master finished eating, he said he would go to digest food with Bao Zheng, and take a look at his son, who was busy taking care of Concubine Pang, and Pang Yu hadn't seen him for a long time.
Bao Zheng didn't forget to remind him, "Marquis Anle has let me live here for half a year, remember to pay for the food later."
The grand master raised his face and thought, "Has it been that long?"
"That's not true." Bao Zheng seriously threatened him, "Think about it, Concubine Pang is ten months pregnant, and I gave you three months less."
"Oh...that's it." The grand master nodded, obviously he couldn't turn his head at this time.
Longtu Pavilion is still very majestic, and you can smell the fragrance of books from a long distance.
An old man with white hair and beard was sweeping the dust at the door, not far away was Xiao Wu stretching himself, this tiger, like a big lazy cat.It used to be that the government servants in Kaifeng and the students of Taixue felt weak when they saw Xiao Wu, and many of them cried in fright, but after getting along for a while, everyone no longer regarded him as a tiger, and directly treated him as a big cat. hug.There were rats in the kitchen that day, and the lady in the kitchen grabbed Xiao Wu by the ear and asked him, "Why did you go at night? You didn't catch any rats?"
So Zhan Zhao covered his ears, thinking, fortunately, everyone didn't take his reputation as Royal Cat seriously.
"Master Bao."
When the old man looked up and saw Bao Zheng, he smiled wrinkled all over his face, and greeted Grand Master Pang again.
"Master Chen, are Zhanwei and them all there?" Bao Zheng also greeted the old man.
"I'm here." Mr. Chen nodded vigorously, "What are they doing? A large group of people seem to want to settle down in Longtu Pavilion. Wasn't Zhan Huwei most afraid of entering Longtu Pavilion to feed bookworms before? "
"Hehe." Master Bao laughed dryly, how should I put it, the guard Zhan is still in retreat, probably trying to learn from the pain and cultivate his character.
"My Yu'er is also reading?" Pang Ji asked.
Master Chen nodded, "Yes."
Taishi Pang held his chin and stared wide-eyed, this is an anecdote!Yu'er of his family actually reads a book!Sure enough, because Kaifeng mansion has good feng shui and lives with Wenquxing every day, is it that all the people raised are gentle people?I don't know if Yu'er will become the No. [-] Scholar Guangzong Yaozu in a few years from now on with Laobao's fairy spirit!
After thinking about it, the grand master leaned over and said to Bao Zheng, "I'll give you Yu'er's living expenses and food expenses later, and you let him let you stay in Kaifeng for seven or eight years?"
The corner of Bao Zheng's mouth twitched, and he looked at him, "Why don't you let him have my surname?"
"Go!" Grand Master Pang gave him a blank look, and went to look at his son shaking his stomach.
Master Bao shook his head helplessly, and was about to walk in when a person beside him fell down with a "swoosh" and saluted him, "Master Bao."
Bao Zheng took a look and nodded, "Duo Luo."
"The Eighth Prince invites you to enter the palace together to discuss important matters." Duo Luo said.
Bao Zheng was stunned, and pointed to himself, "I just came back from the palace, what's the matter?"
Doro shook his head, "I don't know the specific subordinates, but it seems to be related to the birthday celebration."
"Oh..." Bao Zheng understood.Concubine Pang is about to give birth. Anyway, this is the first one. The emperor and the queen mother both advocated celebrating it, but Zhao Zhenchu didn't have the time to be a father, so he left it to the Eighth Prince to take care of it.It is easy for the people in this city to celebrate, but it is estimated that the envoys from various countries are troublesome.
Master Bao nodded, "Then I'll go there right away."
……
Letting go of Master Bao and the Eighth Prince entering the palace together, we are not going to mention it, just talk about the Grand Master.
After the grand master entered the Longtu Pavilion, he saw the long desks in the yard full of books.Gongsun was standing by the table and sorting according to a catalogue. The fourth son and Xiao Liang were standing on the table. Gongsun gave a title and said that one should be put there, and the fourth son found the book from the pile of books. Books are put where they belong.
And behind each pile of books that Xiao Liang placed, there was a person "studying hard".
Grand Master Pang took a glance and found that almost everyone in Kaifeng Mansion had come except Lin Yehuo.
Bao Yan and Pang Yu took two small benches and sat beside a banana tree. There were a lot of books in front of them. Bao Yan's one was relatively high-end, and it was all bamboo slips. Pang Yu just read the picture album.
The corner of Grand Master Pang's mouth twitched—the gap!Inexplicably, "the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, the son of a dragon and a phoenix and a phoenix make a hole in the ground" and so on whirled in his mind, causing the grand master to shake his head.
Zhao Pu and the others also came, and it was really difficult for this great general to bring Long Qiaoguang, Ouyang Shaozheng and Zou Liang to flip through the book together.
Su Qing yawned and looked at a scroll.
Tianzun seemed to be on a errand, standing by a Taihu Lake stone, holding up a sign to reward, while Yin Hou was dozing off behind him.
The most interesting ones are Zhanshow and Baiyutang.
Zhan Zhao leaned against a tree, and Bai Yutang leaned against a tree. The two seemed to be looking at two maps from different periods.
Bai Yutang reported "Su County", Zhan Zhao glanced at it, "It's still there."
"Ge County?" Bai Yutang went on to report.
After Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes and searched around, he made a note in the little notebook, "Oh, this is gone."
The grand master looked very fresh, leaned over and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Ah! Dad!" Pang Yu jumped up so high that he rushed over to grab the Grand Master, "Is my sister giving birth?"
Grand Master Pang looked up at the sky and knocked on his forehead, "Your sister will have at least ten days to give birth."
"Oh..." Pang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
The grand master asked again, "What are you investigating?"
"Oh, we want to check information on counties that disappeared in the past dynasties." Gongsun replied.
Grand Master Pang blinked, "The counties disappeared in the past?"
"Yes." Gongsun nodded, "It's the counties or villages that have suddenly disappeared over the years."
The grand master blinked, looked at the thick pile of books, "Is that how you are looking for it?"
Everyone nodded.
Zhao Pu yawned, "That's too much."
The corner of the Grand Master's mouth twitched, "Don't you know that there are forms in the library in the palace for the change of place names and the migration of residents?"
Everyone stopped the books in their hands and looked up at the Grand Master, "Is there such a thing?"
The grand master was speechless, "Nonsense! Otherwise, how would you manage the territory of the Song Dynasty? There is a special person to sort it out!"
Everyone opened their mouths wide and turned to look at the door together.
Seeing old man Chen walking in slowly with a broom on his shoulders, he looked at the crowd with a smile, "Oh? You are still here, just in time, help me to dry the books, the local chronicles are usually least read by people, huh, huh."
Everyone was grinding their teeth watching the old man leisurely going to drink tea - on purpose!The old man must know, it was on purpose!
Grand Master Pang stretched his waist, sat down beside Pang Yu and ate the red bayberry on the table.
Bao Yan leaned over and asked, "Teacher."
"Huh?" The grand master smiled and nodded, thinking that this baby's skin is tender and fleshy, which is much more pleasing to the eye than that bag of sunspots.
"Have you heard of the legend of the fire phoenix and fire dragon?" Bao Yan asked.
The Grand Master was stunned, touched his chin and raised his face, "Fire Phoenix and Fire Dragon?"
Pang Yu went over to pat Bao Yan, "Little Mantou, even your father doesn't know, what's the use of asking my father."
Pang Yu was beaten before he finished speaking, Pang Ji was so angry, why did he turn his elbow outward!
"Well, your mother might know." The grand master said in astonishment.
Pang Yu pointed to his nose, "My mother? Which one?"
"Your aunt!" Pang Ji glared at him.
Everyone looked at each other—Grandma Huyan.
Zhao Pu was curious, "Madam Pang knows?"
"Well, there seem to be many kinds of phoenix fans. They prepare some clothes every year. They are so beautiful... But once your mother lost her temper and scolded an embroidery worker, do you remember?" Pang Ji asked Pang Yu.
Pang Yu raised his face, "My aunt often loses her temper, which time?"
"Look at your little memory. Once your mother showed your sister a phoenix shawl, and one of the phoenixes turned into a fire phoenix. Your mother scolded the people in the embroidery workshop and said they would set them on fire. I went to the embroidery workshop. Later, the embroiderer took it back and changed it, and your mother didn’t let your sister use that cloak, so it’s unlucky.”
After being reminded by Pang Ji, Pang Yu remembered, "It seems that there is such a thing."
"Miss Huyan knows that the fire phoenix is an unlucky symbol?" Zhan Zhao asked.
"That's what she said. Anyway, we have never used dragons, but phoenixes are often embroidered. Fire phoenixes are absolutely not allowed." Grand Master Pang continued to eat red bayberries, and asked Ouyang Shaozheng for a drink.
"Is Mrs. Huyan in Pang's residence?" Zou Liang suddenly asked Pang Ji, "May I visit?"
"Yo!" Grand Master Pang hurriedly stood up, thinking it was not easy!General Zou has spoken! "The wives of my family are all in the palace. If you go to the library in the palace, ask Yu'er to call and tell her to wait for you in the side hall."
Everyone thought it was feasible, so they wanted to enter the palace, but Zhan Zhao continued to lean on the rattan chair with the book in his arms, and refused to get up.
The fourth son tugged at the hem of his clothes, "Maomao, let's go together!"
"Don't go out." Zhan Zhao was depressed.
The fourth son was anxious, "Maomao. Several new restaurants have opened in Kaifeng in the past few days! There are so many delicious foods!"
The corners of Zhan Zhao's mouth twitched, and he glanced at Bai Yutang with some resentment—look at how you have shaped my image, even the fourth son wants to lure me with food!
"Oh, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, those who propose marriage have already given up and retreated, Mr. Wang told me this morning..." The grand master comforted Zhan Zhao by chewing on a plum, but he didn't notice that the people around him were winking at him.
Pang Yu quietly tugged on his father's sleeve, which means - don't talk nonsense!
Zhan Zhao blinked and asked the Grand Master, "What did Master Wang say?"
Everyone looked at the grand master together.
Zhan Zhao has been squinting in the Kaifeng Mansion for the past few days, and the information from the outside is basically passed on to him by everyone. Sometimes he will ask gossip, what are the rumors these days?Usually everyone will tell him—it’s almost there, and it’s almost gone.
But in fact, the rumors about the relationship between Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang in the imperial city these days are unbelievable.
In the early years, the princes and brothers of Kaifeng Mansion were often ranked by others, such as "Top Ten Young Masters that Kaifeng Girls Most Want to Marry", "Twenty Golden Bachelors in Kaifeng Mansion", "Top Ten Most Potential Talents in Kaifeng" and so on. ...
But for some unknown reason, Bai Yutang suddenly appeared in Kaifeng, and he still lived there all the time, so overnight, this kind of list disappeared for some unknown reason, replaced by the sentence, "If you want to marry, marry Bai Yutang".
The only ones who can compare with Bai Yutang in the limelight are Zhan Zhao, who is loved by everyone in Kaifeng, and the great general Zhao Pu.It's just that Bai Yutang has a prerequisite that neither of them have, and that is to be rich!And it's very rich!Therefore, Fifth Master seemed to be the person most girls in Kaifeng wanted to marry.
But the latest rumors are... a little weird.
When the Grand Master saw Zhan Zhao asked, he said cheerfully, "He originally wanted to ask you to ask if Fifth Lord is interested in meeting his daughter."
As soon as the grand master said that, Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, and then thought seriously—the daughter of Mr. Wang's family... the talented Wang Yao?Knowing the book, Dali, Xiuwaihuizhong or something.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang supported his forehead.
The grand master didn't wink yet, so he continued cheerfully, "My lord Wang said, if the fifth master is not interested in meeting you, you can also meet him. Anyway, he likes both of them."
Zhan Zhao blinked, this time it was Bai Yutang's turn to raise his eyebrows.
"He told me this morning, luckily he didn't ask you, otherwise he would be shameless." The grand master smiled and patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder, "Oh, the fat and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders, haha... um. "
Before he finished speaking, Pang Yu covered the Grand Master's mouth, "Father, aren't you going to enter the palace? Let's go!" After speaking, he dragged the Grand Master and ran away.
"Oh, your father and I just came back..." The Grand Master was dragged out of LongTu Pavilion's courtyard by Pang Yu.
Zhan Zhao tilted his head, looked at the crowd, and they looked up at the sky together, pretending that nothing happened.
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang suspiciously again, feeling that something was being concealed from him.
But Bai Yutang gave Zhan Zhao a tug, and muttered in a low voice, "Let's go, if you don't go out for a stroll, you're really going to be a lady."
"What?" Zhan Zhao didn't hear clearly, "What is it?"
"It's nothing." Bai Yutang shook his head.
Zhan Zhao followed him out, "I clearly heard you talking about turtles..."
Bai Yutang rubbed his neck, "The weather is nice."
Zhan Zhao raised his face and looked at the sunny weather just after the rain, this...is not bad.
After stepping out of Kaifeng Mansion, Zhan Zhao felt that the sun was so glaring!
"An illusion?!" Zhan Zhao raised his hand to cover his eyes.
On the side, Gongsun hugged the fourth son and reminded him, "It's just that the sun has dissipated from the dark clouds."
Zhan Zhao looked up, and the fourth son and others were also covering their eyes.
"Ahem." Guard Zhan forced himself to be calm, and walked forward with his head held high, but he didn't look sideways!
The streets of Kaifeng are still full of people coming and going, Zhan Zhao wears his blue gown and walks beside Bai Yutang in order to keep a low profile, trying not to attract too much attention.
"Yo, Mr. Zhan, I haven't seen you for more than a month. Did you go home to visit relatives?" The aunt selling fishball noodles greeted Zhan Zhao.
The uncle at the cold noodle shop next door, who cuts the cucumber shreds, also laughed, "I went to see my in-laws, haha."
"Come here, have a steamed stuffed bun! This steamed stuffed stuffed bun is very popular recently!" The aunt who sold steamed stuffed buns next door stuffed a steamed stuffed bun into Zhan Zhao's hand.
Zhan Zhao blinked, looked at the peanut-shaped bun in his hand, and wondered if this aunt had strangled her bun with a belt?The waist is so thin?
"This is called a family bun, it's best for two to share..." Before the aunt finished speaking, Bai Yutang grabbed half of the peanut-shaped bun in Zhan Zhao's hand, and walked away while chewing.
Zhan Zhao looked at the remaining half of the bean paste bun, and the neighbors all smiled.
When Zhan Zhao gnawed on the bean paste bun and walked towards the palace with Bai Yutang, he saw passers-by on the street covering their mouths and whispering.
Zhan Zhao vaguely heard...
"It seems to be true!"
"It's all divided into family members, can it be fake?"
"Tsk! Don't let the fat water flow into the fields of outsiders!"
"By the way, how long has it been since Guard Zhan came out?"
"It's been over a month."
The more Zhan Zhao listened, the more puzzled he became, he stretched out his hand and tugged at Bai Yutang's sleeve.
It was just an action that Zhan Zhao would do normally, but suddenly... a group of girls gathered on the second floor, screaming, and Zhan Zhao flinched in fright.
Bai Yutang turned his head, stretched out his hand and tugged at Zhan Zhao's sleeve, which meant - let's go quickly.
So, under the gaze of everyone, Zhan Zhao could be considered to have come to the palace.
When I first entered the palace, I saw many officials.
Lord Bao and the Eighth Prince just asked some officials to study the matter of entertaining envoys.
When the officials went out and saw Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, they all cupped their hands, "Hey, congratulations."
The corner of Zhan Zhao's mouth twitched.
Seeing Bai Yutang politely return the salute.
Zhan Zhao dragged him into an alley beside him.
The others didn't bother to pay attention to them, and continued to look for Empress Huyan in the harem. Gongsun was very interested in the palace's library.
"What did they say congratulations?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled.
Bai Yutang shook his head, "I don't know."
"I don't know how you return gifts?" Zhan Zhao opened his eyes wide.
Bai Yutang took it for granted, "You must be polite."
Zhan Zhao opened his mouth, he didn't think of words to refute him for a long time, and finally thought, "Forget it! Whatever you like!" After speaking, he turned and left.
But within two steps, Bai Yutang grabbed him.
Zhan Zhao turned his head, and Bai Yutang pointed in the opposite direction, "You went the wrong way, you came in from that way just now."
Embarrassed, Zhan Zhao turned his head and continued to walk out with his head held high.
The two were walking when they heard a commotion in the palace, and someone shouted, "There are assassins!"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned.
At this moment, I saw Nangong Ji chasing him out with someone.
Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to scratch his head, and a man in black fell beside him, with a long sword on Zhan Zhao's neck.
Zhan Zhao blinked and looked aside.
Nangong Ji and a group of guards also stopped in front, looking at the masked assassin who "held" Zhan Zhao with a knife with a complicated expression.
Zhan Zhao glanced at the assassin, "Girl, is there anything you can't think about?"
The assassin glared at Zhan Zhao, who was taken aback by the glance, and wondered how come he was so poor because of his handsome appearance?Then puzzled, "How do you know I'm a woman?"
Zhan Zhao didn't answer, but pointed to Bai Yutang who was watching the fun with his arms folded, "Why do you want to hold me hostage instead of him?"
Seeing that Zhan Zhao was being held hostage, the female assassin was still chattering, she turned her blade upwards, and warned Zhan Zhao, "Be quiet!"
Zhan Zhao was dissatisfied, "I look very honest so you don't hold him hostage and hold me hostage?!"
The female assassin was confronting Nangong right now, and she didn't understand why Zhan Zhao talked so much, so she got angry, "You look the weakest, whoever you want to tie!"
As soon as she spoke, everyone gasped.
Hearing the commotion, Zhao Pu and the others who turned their heads to look back happened to hear this sentence, and they all stood where they were, looking at the assassin with regret.
Even Bai Yutang looked at the assassin with a complicated expression, he was so kind...
At this moment, several men in black appeared in the room, and one of them yelled at the girl, "Feiyan! Go!"
The girl was taken aback, and looked up to see three men in black on the roof. She was delighted, "Brother, you are all right..."
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched again—this quality was brought out to be an assassin?Is it really okay...
"It's cheap for you today!" The girl called "Feiyan" pushed Zhan Zhao forward, which meant that she wanted to jump into the room and escape, but the man in black who she called "Brother" yelled ,"careful."
It's just that the girl couldn't move before she had time to react.
Look again, Zhan Zhao is dangling her sword between two fingers, looking up at the three people on the roof.
The three exchanged a look, turned around and wanted to leave.
But the moment they turned around, Zhan Zhao had already appeared in front of them.
The three of them were startled, Zhan Zhao raised his feet and kicked them off the roof.
The three of them fell at the feet of the flying swallow, and before they could get up, Zhan Zhao had already landed beside them, raised his hand and "swiped" his sleeves three times, and the three of them were acupointed and unable to move.
"Brother..." The girl was also dumbfounded, and froze in place, looking at the three men in black on the ground.
Her brother was also quite helpless, "What are you doing here!"
"Do I want to help..." the girl wept.
The three men in black sighed, and said to themselves—if you want to help, pick someone to kidnap, so many people don't pick Zhan Zhao...
Nangong Ji came over to thank Zhan Zhao, and asked the guards to take all four of them down.
Zhan Zhao asked Nangong curiously, "Are they going to assassinate the emperor?"
Nangong shook his head, also a little confused, "No, they want to kidnap Grand Master Pang."
Zhan Zhao opened his mouth wide, "Why tie the Grand Master?"
Nangong spread his hands, indicating that they didn't know, and waited for Mr. Bao to interrogate.
