Encounter with the Four Great Talents

Tang Shen didn't come home all night, and Qiu Shi was so worried that he didn't sleep all night, and Xu Xian was stripped naked and thrown on the street that night, which made Qiu Shi smell a strange smell.There was no news of his son until dawn, so the Qiu family couldn't sit still any longer, and gave a severe lesson to the servant who was in charge of taking care of him last night, and then sent someone out immediately to find news about the second master.

It was not until noon that a handsome and well-behaved servant was brought to Qiu Shi and handed him a letter said to be written by Tang Shen.

Qiu didn't know how to read handwriting, but felt that the tone and appearance of the letters were indeed correct.After asking about his son's news, he was relieved to know that it was not a big deal for him to drink a few more drinks after meeting a good friend out of town.He asked his master's name, and indeed he had heard of it, so he put his heart down again and asked Yong Lu to pack up some Tang Shen's things, and asked him to send them to Tang Shenyong to pick him up by the way.

The boy didn't say anything else, and left with Yonglu.

Yonglu naturally remembered Zhu Yunming, knowing that his second master didn't like this person very much, so he planned to bring his second master back as soon as possible.But as soon as he entered the room and saw the second master's face, Yong Lu's face sank.

Fortunately, Yong Lu was smart, seeing Zhu Yunming's frank appearance and what happened to Xu Xian last night, he roughly guessed most of it.Thank you very well to Zhu Yunming.Zhu Yunming was also affected, so he said: "Your second master doesn't want to worry your mother, so keep this matter a secret for now. Don't worry, apart from a little injury on his foot, it's not a big deal, just take care of him for two days and he will be fine."

Zhu Yunming responded repeatedly, and had already thought up a set of explanations to tell Qiu Shi back.

Zhu Yunming nodded, let him guard Tang Shen, and took the boy out for a walk.

Tang Shen didn't sleep for long, and when he woke up, he saw Yong Lu staring at him with worried face and red eyes.Smiling, he weakly persuaded him: "I'm fine."

Yonglu raised his sleeves and rubbed his eyes, then asked: "Second Master, I have asked someone to prepare hot water, let me wash it for you."

Tang Shen shook his head. He was clean and should have been washed.He's out of spirits right now and doesn't want to waste time. "Don't let mother know about me when you go back. If mother asks, she will say that my foot has suffered some minor injuries and I am too lazy to move. I will borrow from my friend for the time being. I will go back when my foot injury is better."

"Second Lord, don't worry, Yonglu knows."

"Don't do anything to startle the snake, don't tell anyone about me."

"Yes."

"I'm sick now, and I don't have the energy to deal with him, so don't act rashly. Come here to accompany me after you get back to your mother. By the way, go and rent a room."

"Second Master, do you want Brother Fang to come?"

"No, Xu Xian has been taught a lesson and won't show up for the time being. And he probably doesn't dare to show up in front of me now."

"If he dares to appear, I will tear him alive!"

Tang Shen was startled by Yonglu's yell, he glared at him and rubbed his painful temple and said, "Don't be so wordy, just do what you are asked to do obediently, and don't act rashly, otherwise, I will tear you alive .”

Yong Lu shrank his neck, not daring to speak nonsense anymore.

Tang Shen was tired, so he lay back and said, "I'll lie down for a while, you go rent a room, and call me when you're done."

"Yes."

When Zhu Yunming came back, there was no one in the room, he was stunned for a moment and saw Yonglu coming out from the opposite room, and immediately saluted him to greet him.Zhu Yunming smiled and asked: "I thought your second master had gone back."

Yong Lu couldn't help but sneered, and when he finished laughing, he found that the person he was facing was Zhu Yunming, so he apologized quickly.Zhu Yunming waved his hands indifferently, and asked about Tang Shen's body.Knowing that he just ate something and fell asleep, Yong Lu was going back to Xu Mansion to report to his wife, and wanted to ask him to take care of Tang Shen.Zhu Yunming nodded in response, and Yonglu saluted again and left.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yunming didn't bother Tang Shen, but went back to the room, just distracting the two servants to pay attention to the situation opposite.

When Qiu returned to Yonglu, he found out that his son had sprained his foot, and he hadn't seen his friend for a long time, so he simply stayed in the inn with his friend.Qiu cursed a few words with a smile, and asked Yonglu to take care of him. Anyway, there is no shortage of such people around him.

When Yonglu was about to leave, Dongyue came over and handed him a pair of shoes: "Your shoes are broken, please use them."

Yonglu nodded and stuffed the shoes into the package, then looked left and right to see if there was anyone, and pulled Dongyue into the yard.Although the place is empty, you can see everything around you at a glance, and you are not afraid of being overheard.

Dongyue was surprised, and Yonglu said directly: "Second Lord, this is not normal, don't wait to hear me out." Dongyue suppressed the urge to ask, nodded and closed her mouth to listen.Yonglu saw that no one was approaching, and continued: "The second master was drugged by the fifth master Xu in the Mingyue Tower, and he was almost bullied by him."

Dongyue almost screamed, seeing Yonglu's icy eyes and holding back.Yonglu smiled with satisfaction and said: "Don't be afraid, it's okay. Fortunately, Mr. Zhu arrived, saved our master, and taught that bastard a lesson. It's just that the master was injured a little, and he was afraid that his wife would worry, so he stayed outside for a few minutes. Come back someday."

Dongyue took two deep breaths, gritted her teeth and said, "This fellow is really nothing! Where is Er Ye hurt?"

"I really hurt my foot, it's just a little serious, it's swollen, and I can't walk around casually. The second master originally didn't want me to tell anyone, but I think there must be someone who will take care of my wife, so I will tell you first. Don't be impulsive It hurt the second master's reputation."

"You still need to teach me? I know what to do, so don't worry about it."

Seeing that Dongyue was a little angry, Yonglu smiled and took out a butterfly silver bead flower from his bosom, shook it twice under her eyelids, saw that she looked at it fondly, and put his hand on her head: "To please you, Keep what I told you in my heart, and don't let others know. The second master is very angry. "

Dongyue helped Fu Zhuhua and said: "You persuade the second master, you don't have to get angry and hurt yourself because of that screwdriver. He made a big ugly this time, and was punished by Master Xu to kneel for a long time In the ancestral hall, the family law was also beaten, and there was no room for him to make trouble for ten days and a half months. You let the second master rest in peace of mind, and it is not too late for our gentleman to take revenge for ten years, so we don't want that boy to have a good time!"

Yonglu laughed so hard that he fell down: "I just like your clearness of what you like and hate." Dongyue blushed and pinched him fiercely. Yonglu repeatedly begged for mercy, took her hand, and whispered : "I'll tell you, what the second master meant, that kid wasn't that smart to make him like this, the eldest girl of the Xu family probably helped in it. Recently, she lives back in her mother's house, and she doesn't see her when she looks up. You should pay more attention to her. "

Dongyue had just breathed in enough to scream, but Yonglu pulled her to calm down and nodded fiercely: "Don't worry! I knew that woman is not a good thing at all! Do you know? She has been back to her mother's house for so long It's time, but no one came to pick her up from my aunt's house. If it was someone else's house, why would she come to say hello to my aunt? I heard that this woman almost made the child born to my aunt's favorite aunt almost Died young, if it wasn't for the dissuasion of my aunt's old lady, I would have almost divorced her."

Yong Lu was startled, is this woman crazy?I wanted to continue to ask, but seeing that it was not early, I had to say goodbye to Dongyue first, went back to the room, picked up my things and rushed to the inn immediately.

Tang Shen recuperated quietly in the inn. Although his feet were the most seriously injured, his vitality was severely injured after all, and he was lethargic most of the day.Yonglu stayed by Tang Shen's side every day, and quickly became very familiar with Tuanzi Yuanzi who was beside Zhu Yunming.The two unlucky children, Tuanzi Yuanzi, have been with Zhu Yunming since they were young, and Zhu Yunming also gave them this name when they were young, and after so many years of calling them, they have become numb.Tuanzi is mainly in charge of Zhu Yunming's daily life. He is warm and cheerful, handles affairs neatly, and his round face is full of joy when he smiles.Yuanzi is mainly in charge of Zhu Yunming's guard. Although he looks like a little meat, he is actually quite good at it.The three master and servant came back from a stroll not long after the examination, and came to play after hearing that Changzhou had a beautiful scenery.

They are Zhu Yunming's closest friends, they are different from the two book boys Zhu Yunming brought back to Suzhou last year.However, at that time, due to some reasons, he did not come back with Zhu Yunming, so he was not very clear about the matter between the Tang family brothers and his master.Seeing that Zhu Yunming knew Tang Shen was still a little strange, but now he got to know Yong Lu well, so he took the opportunity to inquire.

Since they didn't know, Yonglu knew Mr. Zhu's attitude, so he didn't need to talk too much, so he changed the subject with a haha.Both of them are also shrewd, knowing that people don't want to mention this matter, so they don't ask anymore.

The three of them huddled together and chatted, and brought some salted peanuts to eat by the way.Tang Shen and Zhu Yunming sat face to face and played chess.

As for Go, Tang Shen's strength is really mediocre, but he just knows how to play it.And Zhu Yunming is proficient at first glance, he has already lost two games in this short period of time, and the game in front of him seems to be unsafe.

Tang Shen frowned, pinching a sunspot with his fingertips and turning it back and forth, while Zhu Yunming looked relaxed, reading Tang Yin's poetry collection while dealing with the chess game.

Tang Shen lost two games in a row, so naturally he didn't want to repeat it again and again, so he really wanted to save some face in this game.But it is obvious that Zhu Yunming does not have such a mind, his chess board is already in a state of disarray, only the corners are barely able to breathe.But being defeated, Tang Shen knew it was only a matter of time.

Couldn't help curling his lips, and put down the chess piece: "I admit defeat."

Zhu Yunming turned his eyes from the book and glanced at him, and the peach blossoms were flying like spring and March between Gu Pan.Tang Shen couldn't help scolding the evil man with peach blossoms again in his heart. He is obviously a big man, but he has such a pair of seductive eyes.In contrast, I am not as good-looking as him, I am not as good-looking as him, I am not as good as him in birth, and now I am not as good as playing chess!

Inexplicably angry, he shrank back: "I'm tired, I won't play anymore."

Zhu Yunming laughed and stretched out his hand to clean up the chess pieces one by one. His slender fingers were very beautiful, and he deftly picked up the sunspots on the chessboard to clean up the chessboard.Tang Shen glanced at the hand, turned his eyes a little awkwardly, and then saw Yong Lu take out a bag of peanuts and handed it to Yuanzi Yuanzi with a distressed expression.

"What are you doing?"

Yonglu looked back at him, with a look of grievance on his face: "Second Lord, you lost three games of chess, and I also lost three bags of peanuts. For the sake of my betting on you, you have to win too." It's just one match."

Zhu Yunming laughed loudly on the opposite side, Tang Shen smiled darkly: "I'm sorry, my young master is not good at chess. But there is still money to treat you to eat peanuts, why don't I give you some money, you go buy a sack of peanuts and come back, I guarantee you After eating all of them, you will never want to see peanuts again in this life, how about I give you an apology?"

Yong Lu quickly retracted his neck and shook his head again and again.Just kidding, how dare he.

Just as he was talking, there was a knock on the door, and Yong Lu jumped up and rushed to open the door in response.As soon as the door was opened, Dongyue stood outside the door with a sweet smile and looked at him.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

Dongyue gave him a blank look, walked around him and entered the door, greeted the two young masters, and then handed over a box: "Second Master, this is brought to you by my wife, and there are some high-quality wound medicines in it." I heard that your foot injury is slow to heal, so my wife went to find it.” Then he put down a four-layer food box and said, “Here are some dishes made by my wife. I want you to eat some while it’s hot. It's not easy to serve, my wife is afraid that you will not like eating outside."

Tang Shen looked at her with a smile, let her arrange the dishes, and when she finished, he asked Zhu Yunming to sit down as well, and then said: "Why does this sound like scolding me, why am I not easy to serve? "

Dongyue stuffed the chopsticks into his hands: "If you are easy to serve, no one will be difficult to serve you. Let's eat quickly. My wife prepares it as soon as I get up in the morning. I wish you can use it too, my wife specially made more for you. , I hope you don’t dislike the craft.”

Zhu Yunming said with a smile: "Thank you so much. It's rare to eat these home-cooked dishes when you are away from home. You should eat more today."

The two were polite for a while, Dongyue served them for dinner, and the three servants went to the restaurant outside to eat by themselves.Dongyue was careful and capable, so the two of them ate a lot more than usual, and many dishes were eaten up, especially to save face.

Seeing that the task was successfully completed, Dongyue was also very satisfied.The second master has been living outside for two days. Although Qiu can get some news from Yonglu every day, he is still worried after all, so he deliberately finds a reason to send her here.Looking at it now, although there are still some marks on Tang Shen's face and neck, it doesn't look like he has been wronged, but his feet are really inconvenient.After thinking about it in my heart, I knew how to reply to Qiu Shi. Before I left, I thought about it and said: "By the way, Second Master, Brother Fang came to greet you, and the wife made the decision to let him take Xiaodu to live in Xu's house first, saying that it would save money." Brother Fang is running back and forth."

Tang Shen narrowed his eyes, nodded and said, "Well, that's fine. Xiaodu is a sensitive child. You should be careful and take care of that child."

"Your maidservant knows. This maidservant still needs to answer the wife, so I will leave first." Saying this, she bowed to the two of them, Zhu Yunming thanked them, and Dongyue went back with her things.
