Forty-eight through the return of the pearl: the pearl of the king

It is said that after Yinzhen canceled the southern tour plan, after some thinking, he handed over some of the matters that he originally wanted to handle during the southern tour to Shi 34 and Lao Jiu Lao Shi, so the four of them split into two and went south.

Yinxiang and Yinzhen took a team of people, and went out of Beijing in a low-key way, via Shandong, to Suzhou.

It is said that a year ago, there was a drought in Shandong. After receiving the report, Yinzhen immediately dispatched reliable personnel to escort the relief food, so as to prevent the victims from suffering. This special order is to confirm the disaster victims of # last year Whether the disaster victims can be properly resettled, and the local situation after the current drought.

However, when Yinxiang and Yinzhen came all the way, the situation was not optimistic. After asking some of the victims, I learned that after the officials who had been specially dispatched to distribute the relief funds returned to Beijing to report on their duties, the governor of Shandong, Shi Fangzhou, embezzled all the remaining food funds that had not been distributed, and then It has not been distributed to the victims.

What's even more exasperating is that when the two men ordered someone to take down the thief, that Fang Zhou dared to utter wild words, such as "the mountain is high and the emperor is far away", "a strong dragon can't overwhelm a local snake", "even if the two of them are dead today!" No one will say "Yun Yun" here in the future.

Seeing that he intended to kill someone to silence him, Yinxiang was even more furious, and immediately took out the flintlock gun that he always carried with him.He and Yinzhen had been fiddling with these firearms since they were young, and they used the best things, so Shi Fangzhou was killed almost immediately on the spot.

Seeing the leader's execution, the remaining members of the gang immediately panicked and fled in all directions. They were either killed on the spot, or captured by the accompanying guards, or saw that the situation was not good and had to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Yinxiang stepped on the corpse of that way boat, crushed it twice, and snorted coldly: "What a mountain is high and the emperor is far away! I peeled the snake skin of your local snake for the fourth brother today!"

Yinzhen was stunned, knowing that he was actually motivated to kill because of Fang Fangzhou's sentence of "the mountain is high and the emperor is far away", and he was inexplicably blocked.Sure enough, Yinxiang cared most about the fourth child.He thought bitterly.

After finishing the business in Shandong, Yinxiang ordered an attendant to go back to Beijing to report everything about this place to Yinzhen, and then the two continued to go south.It's just that at this moment, Yinzhen and Yinxiang both lost the relaxed smile they had when they just left the house, and they became silent at the same time.

A mere wayboat can make the people #不#谈# live and mourn. However, there are still a few "wayboats" that have not been "seen" by them in this world. How many people are in dire straits? ?

Soon, the group arrived in Haining.The early spring in the south of the Yangtze River comes earlier than that in the north, and the little greenery is lovely, and even the dark clouds that have been pressing on the heart have slightly dissipated.

In the carriage, Yinxiang cheered up, turned his head and smiled slightly at Yinzhen: "The fourth elder brother specially instructed us before the trip, we can go to the Chen family in Haining to settle down this time. Chen Bangzhi's father, Chen Gelao, used to belong to the fourth elder brother Old minister."

It's the fourth brother again.Yinzhen let out a muffled "hmm".

Seeing that he was not very interested, Yinxiang just assumed that he was still thinking about things in Shandong just like he was before, so he didn't say anything more.

When they arrived at Chen's house, the two revealed their identities and were immediately treated warmly.As soon as Fang entered the hall, there were maids and servants waiting in an endless stream.

At the reception banquet, there were staggered toasts.

Chen Bang called out his four daughters, and introduced them one by one like offering treasures: "King Shenjun and Mr. Fucha, these are the four daughters of the slave family, who know piano, chess, books, and paintings! Hurry up and give them to me." Greetings, my lord!"

The four girls greeted the two of them one after another, but all of them were slim and beautiful with an extraordinary temperament, and their gestures and gestures were also the demeanor of a school of ladies.

But, what kind of lady would meet a strange man so rashly and casually?Even though the two of them are not very old, after all "men and women have different seats at seven years old", the Chen family's mind seems a little subtle.

Perhaps it was also because they felt that it was inappropriate for the four daughters to stay at the banquet, and the four left quickly after seeing the ceremony.

"The Chen family in Haining is really extraordinary." Yinxiang glanced at Yinzhen, meaningfully, "Master Chen, I have to ask on behalf of our Twelfth Lord, have your four daughters promised anyone?"

Yinzhen was taken aback for a moment, and looked at him suspiciously.

Yinxiang asked this frivolously, but he had a childish face, and his round eyes were only clear and pure, it seemed that it was just because of the naughty nature of a 12-year-old boy.

Then Chen Bangzhi replied with a smile in a joking tone: "Zhiqin, Zhiqi, and Zhishu all have family members, only Zhihua has no husband's family!"

Yinxiang deliberately winked at Yinzhen: "Master Twelfth, my slave, I can only help you here."

Yinzhen was angry in his heart, but he couldn't get angry in front of Chen Bangzhi, so he gave him a hard look and kept silent.

Chen Bangzhi was a little embarrassed. He secretly watched the expressions of the two of them. He saw that one had a sullen face, not sure if it was anger or shame, and the other was just smiling and eating and drinking as if he didn't realize it.

I had no choice but to avoid talking about these things, and just greeted them to eat and drink to their heart's content.

It was night, in the Green Ripple Pavilion deep in the green shade of Chen Garden, Yinzhen tugged on Yinxiang's skirt and lost his temper: "Yinxiang, what do you mean by the banquet tonight?"

Yinxiang raised his hands in surrender: "It's just a casual joke, don't worry about it seriously? Are you really angry?"

Yinzhen was furious: "You, you know..." While speaking, he saw a few faint lights gradually moving towards this side.

A woman sighed and said: "Oh, I thought that if the current sage is on his southern tour, if he can see Zhihua when he passes by Haining, I will take you back to Beijing. From now on, I will be a concubine, and my Chen family can also shine on the lintel."

The voice seemed to be Mrs. Chen whom they had met at the banquet before. Yinxiang and Yinzhen looked at each other, sat down in the pavilion lightly and listened carefully.Fortunately, there happened to be a rockery covering this side, and the two of them didn't light up the lights, so they couldn't see it from the outside.

Mrs. Chen continued: "I never expected that the empress would be pregnant at this time! The emperor is really as rumored, he has a deep affection for the empress, and he didn't even come to the southern tour because of her."

A young girl answered disapprovingly: "In my opinion, even if the emperor came to the south this time, he might not be able to see the painting."

"Second Sister, what do you mean by that? Am I not as good as those princes and noble daughters, princess princesses? If it weren't for the emperor's filial piety, keeping his filial piety for the former emperor, and refusing to choose a big draft #女, I must have entered the palace long ago! "Another girl said angrily, she must be Chen Zhihua.

Chen Zhiqi explained: "Silly girl, think about it, just because the emperor loves the empress so much, and even repeatedly shirks the legitimate draft, how could he accept a concubine during the southern tour? Isn't this rushing to embarrass the empress?"

Another person continued: "Even if you are lucky enough to enter the palace, with the way her empress has favored the harem since the emperor's ascension to the throne, you, a little daughter of a Hanchen, have no foundation in the capital, how can you beat her?" Xilin Jueluo?"

"Yes, the imperial concubine must be hopeless!" Mrs. Chen said, "It's fine if the emperor didn't come, but the Shenjun king who came now is the only prince who is trusted by the emperor. The concubine is in Fujin, so it may not be worse than the concubine."

Another female voice seemed to be a little hesitant: "But that King Shenjun is only 14 years old this year, three years younger than Zhihua, and he is not yet mature, so he is still a child at worst."

"So what? A man in the royal family starts to know people at the age of thirteen or fourteen. After another two years, there will be so many women posting up one after another. How can it be our family's turn? And now he is still young. The beginning of love is actually an advantage, if you spend a little more effort, you won't be able to catch him, and let him give up on Zhihua, in my opinion, this is Fujin Zhihua!"

"Mom, you're talking too loudly! In case someone overhears you..." Someone reminded.

"What are you afraid of? Let's talk at home, which servant dares to talk too much, just wring his tongue!" Mrs. Chen disagreed.

"Ah, mother, why are you talking about this? It's so scary at night!" One of the girls coquettishly said, "Let's go and see the peony! I saw flowers#buds yesterday!"

The lights went away with the sound of footsteps, and the voice of the conversation became smaller and smaller until it was gradually inaudible.

Yinxiang glanced at the people beside him, and he could perceive how ugly his face was at the moment only by the moonlight.This look and fourth brother really deserve to be brothers.Yin Xiang couldn't help but lost his mind for a while, and then coughed dryly: "Hey, it's getting late, let's go back to rest first? Tomorrow I have to go to survey the seawall, and I'll be busy for several days."

Yinzhen snorted coldly and walked away.

After several days of surveying the seawall and listening to the local minister's anti-tide plan, Yinxiang Yinzhen decided to return to the capital to report on his work as soon as possible.Therefore, Chen Zhihua originally planned to wait for the two of them to finish their official duties, and invite Yinzhen to go to the "Little Lion Garden" to look at strange stones, talk about poetry, songs, and life ideals, but failed.I had no choice but to prepare a practice banquet for him in the Chen family garden before leaving, ready to make a last-ditch effort.

This afternoon, while eating wine and vegetables, Mrs. Chen suddenly said that the four girls of their family had prepared a practical performance for King Shenjun and Mr. Fucha.So, without any explanation, the one who played the qin, the one who played the pipa, the one who played the huqin, and the remaining "protagonist" performed "dancing and drawing" to the music.

When the sound of the piano fell, Chen Zhihua finished the last stroke, stepped aside and put down the brush, gave a deep blessing to the crowd, and said shyly: "Prince Shenjun, Mr. Fucha, don't joke, Zhihua is making a fool of yourself." He took a deep look at Yinzhen.

It's a pity that Yinxiang and Yinzhen were still stunned by her bold and slutty dancing posture, and no one paid attention to her winking eyes.

Yinxiang finally came back to his senses, twitched the corners of his mouth, and praised dryly: "That's right, the music is like flowing water, and the painting of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum is quite charming. It's just..."

Yinzhen continued: "It's just that this plain white gauze is a bit too unlucky." He hit the nail on the head without mercy.

The faces of the Chen family turned red and then turned white, turning white and turning red again, and they were so choked that they couldn't speak.Chen Zhihua even had a pale face with a small# face, watery eyes glistening in his big eyes, ready to cry, with an injured and aggrieved look on his face.

"It's getting late, let's go now." After finishing speaking, Yinzhen pulled Yinxiang up, "Master Chen, I'm sorry for bothering you this time, please leave." Ignoring the reaction of the Chen family, the two took their guard Hao Leaving in a mighty way.

On the way back to Beijing, one evening, everyone stayed in an inn.

Yinzhen looked at the person who just came back from the outside with a smile on his face, and asked, "Where did you go?"

Yinxiang looked at his narrow-minded look, couldn't hold back, and laughed and said: "To be honest, every time I see you like this, I feel like fourth brother!"

Yinzhen's face became even colder, and he turned his head and walked out without saying a word.

"Hey?" Yinxiang quickly grabbed him, "Are you angry again? You, you really can't be provoked at all."

Yinzhen turned his head and glared at the unaware person in front of him: "Every time it is the fourth brother, Yinxiang, do you really only see the fourth brother in your heart?"

Yinxiang held back his smile and looked at him silently.

After a long while, Yinzhen was defeated in the stare at each other, and looked away: "Forget it, why am I telling you this."

Yinxiang still didn't speak, but took something out of his sleeve and put it in his hand.

"This, this is..." Yinzhen stared blankly at the little thing in his hand, braided with red thread, with long fringed tassels, and in the middle was a square, angular jade dice with six faces. One to six small dots are finely carved, and what is even more surprising is that this exquisite dice is actually hollowed out, and there is something red and red inside, and there are rustling and colliding sounds under light shaking.

"Don't you know?" Yinxiang said lightly.

There was a trace of astringency in Yinzhen's voice, as well as more suppressed surprises: "No, what I mean is, what do you mean?"

"Don't you really know? 'Linglong Dice An Hongdou', what do you mean?" Yinxiang looked deeply into his eyes and continued, "And even if I didn't give it to you today, after all these years Since then, don’t you understand my intentions?”

"I...Of course I am, I also..." Yinzhen was incoherent in a hurry.

However, at this moment Yinxiang suddenly changed the subject and lowered his head: "You've always looked depressed recently, I just wanted to buy something for you, and I happened to see this today. It just seems like it might not be necessary. After all, there are so many people in Fujin, such as that Chen Zhihua. Heh, what am I? A man, and now he is still a half-child who is several years younger than you."

Seeing his "frustrated" low-key appearance, Yinzhen couldn't help being anxious: "No! You will always be my thirteenth brother, I, I like you!"

A smile flashed across Yinxiang's half-closed eyes, Fang raised his head and said in surprise: "Really?"

Yinzhen immediately nodded again and again, his face was hot: "I like your thirteenth brother, and I only like you all the time!"

Yinxiang's eyes lit up, then dimmed again: "But..."

Yinzhen said as a promise: "I will not marry, or even if I do, I will be like the fourth brother and never touch those women."

"I will too." Yinxiang looked at him deeply, and suddenly sighed regretfully, "Oh, it's a pity that we are still too young to... do something, what a pity."

Yinzhen blushed, and after a while, said softly: "I will wait for you to grow up."

Wen Yan Yinxiang couldn't help but chuckled, and lowered his voice slightly: "We grew up together." Then, I ate you.

Yinzhen: There seems to be something wrong. .

However, having said that, who can be sure about the future now?

The author has something to say: Linglong dice and red beans, you will know who you are when you are deeply in love. ——Wen Tingyun
