overbearing

He encountered an assassin's conspiracy within a few days after he came to the capital, and he has been busy with this matter for a long time, and he has not had time to appreciate the real scenery of the capital.

But Zhou Xiaowang earned a lot of money from this busy work, which filled the treasury and filled his pockets, so he himself was very satisfied.As for the scenery of the capital, I can't run there, and I can't eat what I don't see.In fact, he didn't have a good impression of the capital, and everyone was confused, especially after the assassination incident, he felt that the capital was a quagmire, a pit of fire, and a tiger's lair, which was very annoying and annoying.

But now he is not the big treasure who rolled around and scratched the wall when things went wrong. He understood that his elder brother had become the emperor after all, and he couldn't help himself in many things.Therefore, although he thought in his heart that it would be a big deal for his brother not to be the emperor, and go back to Hanzhou together, even if it is not as prosperous as the capital, but he has unfettered freedom and happiness.But he also knew that this idea was just a daydream, and he never pestered the emperor to lobby to go back to Hanzhou.

Now that the rebels have been caught clean and refreshed, and he has extra money in his hand, he is actually the wealthiest in the few New Years he has spent, so Zhou Jirong happily plans to buy this and that, wholeheartedly Getting ready for the new year.

On this day, he was directing people to hang lanterns on the corridor, when suddenly a young lady who claimed to be Duan came from the front yard to ask to see him.

His house was the house of a certain prince in the former dynasty, and it was expanded later, so it was really spacious, and the servants were not enough for a while, so the important job of guarding the gate was temporarily performed by the guards beside him.

This person is obviously not very qualified for this job, so he would make a fuss of the guests if he came here, he said to Zhou Jirong with a strange expression: "My lord, the lady surnamed Duan is a beauty, she seems worthy of the lord... Look, isn't she..."

"It's a fart!" Zhou Jirong scolded first, then bowed his head and thought hard, but he couldn't find any impression of this lady surnamed Duan in any corner.While I couldn't help it but secretly worried, I wondered if this little girl surnamed Duan was different, she actually fell in love with Lao Tzu because of her discerning eyes?He is already so famous, could it be that because of his charming appearance of Yushu Linfenglongzhang, and the capital is so huge, there are still some ignorant girls who can't help but be excited?

Although the taste of eating behind closed doors one after another makes people feel uncomfortable, but a rotten peach blossom suddenly blooms inexplicably, which also makes Zhou Jirong startled and terrified.The guard at the gate obviously had some other ideas, and he didn't take it seriously when he was reprimanded by Zhou Jirong, and continued to look at him warmly and ambiguously with his facial features.

Zhou Jirong gathered himself together, and said to him: "You tell her to wait first." He thought it was better to find out the details of this young lady first, because he didn't want a woman to come to the door and just pretend to be affectionate.

Li Wanhe was not here today, Commander Wu was the leader of a team of imperial troops assigned to him by the emperor, and he was staying at the mansion today.The emperor put this person by his side because Zhou Jirong didn't know much about the situation in the capital, so he could give some pointers at critical times. Wu Si really knew the people in the capital well, and after hearing Zhou Jirong's recitation, he immediately told Zhou Jirong : "Miss Duan must be Empress Dowager Duan's niece, Miss Duan Yunjia, she is also very famous in the capital, and she can play the pipa superbly. From the perspective of Empress Dowager, she is also somewhat related to the young prince."

Zhou Jirong thought about it hard. When he first entered the palace, he deliberately visited the two empress dowagers, and one of them seemed to have the surname Duan.It's just that he had no mother to take care of him since he was a child, and he couldn't get close to women. The empress dowager and his elder brother were only mother and son in name, and there was a distance of nine turns and eighteen turns from him. He turned his head and forgot about this person. on the side.

At this time, when he heard Wu Size counting these relationships in detail, he felt a headache and troublesome, and asked directly: "What do you think she came to see me for? She didn't come to play the pipa for me, did she?"

After Wu Size got used to it, he didn't take everything he said seriously, just heard some of it, and just said: "Your lord, wake her up and ask if she will know. The Duan family used to be a prominent family in Beijing. Now, although there are only two brothers and sisters left, the prestige is still there, and they are the Empress Dowager Duan's natal family. The emperor is usually polite to them. Her elder brother is also a figure, and he is quite prestigious among the scholars. The emperor is planning to use him , the little prince should not be rude to his sister."

After thinking about it, she made up her mind and said: "She was engaged to the second son of the Liu family since she was a child, but she was sentenced to exile. The Liu family we went to copy the day before yesterday, Miss Duan probably took a chance and wanted to plead with you, who knows? Well. If the prince is afraid of trouble, it’s okay if he doesn’t see you.”

Zhou Jirong heard that she made an engagement, not for an ignorant girl with a spring heart, and his vanity was a little bit lost. After hearing it, he said strangely: "Isn't she the niece of the Queen Mother? I have to plead for her little lover." Looking for her aunt, why did you come to see me? I don't know her."

Wu Si guessed that this little girl might have already begged Queen Mother Duan.Empress Dowager Duan is a person with insight, and the Liu family's loss of power is a foregone conclusion. No matter how much she loves Miss Duan in normal times, she will never force herself to intercede for her little lover at this time.Her elder brother, Duan Ningze, is even more intelligent and sensible. He decided to withdraw the marriage for his younger sister when the rumors were wrong, and drew a clear line with the Liu family.It's just that this little girl is so infatuated that she doesn't want to part with her childhood sweetheart, she might run out behind her brother's back, and when she thinks of coming to beg Young Lord Zhou, she probably has the intention of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

But he knew that Zhou Jirong had always been annoyed by these nonsense things, so he didn't talk to him too much, but he thought in his heart that he would send someone to Duan Ningze and ask him to lead his sister. Go back and watch, who is not good to provoke, but this little prince who is too late for others to hide?

Having said that, it is not good for people to find the door and come up without even seeing each other.Besides, Zhou Jirong was quite idle and bored these few days, he wanted to hear what the little girl wanted to do, so he sent a message to ask the guards guarding the gate to let that 'fart' Miss Duan in.

Of course, Ms. Duan didn't come to play the pipa for someone to listen to. She is a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, and she looks very beautiful. Zhou Jirong has never seen her usual appearance. I don't know if she has been carefully dressed, but Even the exquisite makeup could not conceal the two reddish eyes that had obviously been crying for a long time, and tremblingly followed behind the guard with his head down and his head mournfully.

Pretty is beautiful, but Zhou Jirong looks at his own face every day, and has never had much thought about other people's looks. He glanced at her face twice and stopped paying attention.He stopped and noticed that she was empty-handed to show that she hadn't prepared a gift, and suddenly she became narrow-minded. Is there anyone like you who comes to ask for help, and doesn't even bring me a piece of bacon when I come to the door for the Chinese New Year—although I bring it. It may not necessarily do things for you, but this cannot change the fact that the girl surnamed Duan is indeed an ignorant girl who is ignorant of the world.
