[Red Mansions] The prince is polite

When choosing a place to live, Xiao Liu smiled noncommittally at all of Jia's mother's proposals, and the mother behind her looked at Xiao Liu's face, bowed a step forward and said, "Young master, I don't live in the house where the girl lived. The mansion is also the main house of the poor."

Jia's mother froze for a moment, in a dilemma, Yuanyang came over and whispered a few times, and Jia's mother shook her head at her.At this time, a nanny also came over and whispered to Taiji, the nanny in charge, Taiji thought for a while, and then bowed and whispered to the sixth master: "The daughter-in-law of a younger brother who was just tied into the chaiyuan came to ask questions." , I don’t need to pay attention to it, but that little brother is a five-rank fellow who donated..."

Xiao Liu moved his fingers, and Taiji ordered him to be brought in.I saw a well-dressed, young and beautiful family member with a hairpin that fits the rank of the wife of a fifth-rank official walking slowly, followed by a young daughter-in-law and a steward. Wrapped in the palm of the hand, the string of agarwood beads in front of the Buddha that just came from the fourth brother.

Wang Xifeng, who walked up with a handkerchief, just stared at the child standing in front of Jia Mu, feeling very surprised. No matter how much the ancestors who were extremely disciplined loved Baoyu, he would not allow him to break the rules and lose his character, so he He squinted his eyes and looked carefully, but was blocked by a very unfamiliar nanny, who was staring at his face with very displeased and cold eyes.My heart was shocked, thinking of what my friend said through the door, and the people who surrounded the ancestor's yard, only from the slave's appearance and demeanor, he could deduce that this child's identity is indeed not simple .

With a rare bowed head, he saluted very politely, but when saluting, he also tried his best to look at the child's clothing material, the aloe that was playing with it, and the blood amber coiled dragon embroidery that leaked from his wrist. Diffuse and majestic.I was so shocked that I didn't dare to mention anything, I just peeked at the old ancestor, hoping she could introduce something, but only heard Jia's mother say: "It's just right for you to come, this is the young master entrusted to take care of by an old friend of mine. , only one thing makes me very embarrassed, is there a room in the family that has not been contaminated by female relatives?"

Wang Xifeng thought about it for a while, and was a little puzzled. Those who are qualified to wear Panlong Embroidery are either men in the Forbidden City or relatives of the emperor, and they have no land to live in?Not to mention the identity of Keqing, the nephew and daughter-in-law, this is a hot potato, it is best not to live in the mansion, but the ancestors will not agree.He kept twisting the handkerchief, walked a few steps in a hurry, turned his head suddenly after standing still, and said with a playful corner of his eyes: "Old Ancestor, I haven't congratulated you yet. Today, the second master went to the palace to receive the order when he was on business. It is said that it will be the [-]th day of the first lunar month next year, and the nobles will visit their relatives. The masters have already agreed to start from the east area, through the garden in the East Mansion, and turn to the north. The total measurement is accurate. It is three and a half miles long. The drawing of the courtyard has also been passed on to others. Although there is no one walking around there, it is quite deserted, but the houses are brand new, and it may be possible to live in."

Only then did Xiao Liu slightly raise his eyes to look at the female family member, and asked casually, "Taiji, fourth brother, will you let me find a clean place to live? That's it, after such a day of tossing, I'm tired, today I haven't done my homework yet, if Master Ming'er asks, those guys will be beaten again."

Taiji performed a squatting salute, and was about to chat, but felt that it was inappropriate, pursed his lips, and nodded very helplessly.Afterwards, the group of people were all carried by Xiaojiao to the rear of the mansion slowly, only Xiao Liu's sedan chair was carried by the highest specification four people in the mansion.Mother Jia lifted the curtain and saw that the slaves in the mansion didn't behave like they used to make trouble at will and behaved quite improperly. She nodded with satisfaction, put down the curtain, and closed her eyes to rest.

After getting off the sedan chair, Xiaoliu stroked Taiji's hand, standing in an empty outhouse with no decorations, except bricks and tiles and wood carvings, it looked very deserted, although the lighting was excellent, but he didn't like it, pursed his lips Bowing his head, he missed him very much, passing through the residence arranged by the fourth brother.Looking at the sixth elder brother like this, Taiji felt sore in his heart, and suggested, "Little master, Taiji saw that this place is very empty, surrounded by curtains, with a few tents in the middle, warm in winter and cool in summer, it should be very comfortable A while ago, you listened to the master's talk about the northern tour, and you were so envious that you wanted to go next time. How about Taiji let you experience it first, the inheritance in the blood of our nomads?"

"Okay, Taiji, it's a good build, and I'll reward you!" Xiaoliu immediately put all his melancholy behind him, clapped his hands, and ordered, "You all listen to Taiji's words, and you can finish everything within an hour. , by the way, arrange all my things according to elder brother's arrangement."

After the other nurse Shi Mo, who was also in charge, finished her salute, she turned her face and glared at Taiji, spread her sleeves, and said silently, "I can't live in a good house. I'll gather my little master to live in a tent. If there is someone Good or bad, let's see how the fourth elder brother peeled off your skin. Taiji pursed his lips and smiled, then asked the little maids to fetch the utensils, and quickly arranged a small space for the little master to do his homework first.

And Wang Xifeng, who had been scrutinizing and thinking carefully, turned back after listening to it. Although the old ancestor gave him a dissatisfied stare, and what he did was not a coincidence, he finally found out that the child's identity was Manchu. , and it is unspeakably expensive, it is yet to be found out which one is in the prince's mansion.Recalling the words of my aunt Mrs. Wang before, I feel a little uneasy. This little brother is no better than Daiyu, he is only alone. Listening to those words, there is a brother who loves the little brother very much. If it is what it is Those in the palace who only came out to practice for a while, if they get involved in such a thing, they may be involved in the future.

Xiao Liu, who slept in the tent at night, read the book for a while, and didn't put it down until his eyes were dazzled by the light.He turned his shoulders on both sides, shook his neck, and waved back to persuade the mother who was sleeping.Walking out of the tent, I once again waved back the little masters who came to light up, dressed in night, with a quiet starry sky above my head, and heard the singing of insects and birds.Looking at it, Ben's eyes, which were shining from time to time in the dark night, also squinted with the twinkling of stars, lay down on the spot, with his palms in front of his sight, moving and retracting, playing vigorously.

The serving nun turned around and came to the next tent, bent down and leaned into Taiji's ear, who was counting the items brought out from the palace, and whispered a few times.Taiji frowned, and looked sharply at the nanny who came to report, but didn't say anything, he carefully locked the box, put the account book back in the cabinet, and locked it, and then proceeded Go to Six Argonauts with a lantern.

But after taking such a photo, his face turned pale with fright, he quickly put down the lantern in his hand, and exclaimed, "Oh my little ancestor, why did he just lie on the ground like this, the night is cool and windy, and there is still dew, carefully understand The master is very distressed, the servants will not only be punished, but also punished." Turning his head and cursing, "Where are you guys who are close to the servants hiding? You don't leave a light for the little master. How did I teach you? Don’t think that you will be fine if the master is not around, someone here will report it every day.”

Xiao Liu helplessly pushed Taiji away and fumbled all over his body, and asked someone to take a cloak, and turned his head to say, "Taiji, don't be so nervous, I told them not to disturb. It's all right to raise me as a girl, it's good to be able to make her happy, the fourth brother is better, he just likes to let me wear red clothes, if I still need to listen to you, where will I put my face, young master? "

Taiji suppressed a smile, "Little Sixth Master will do whatever he says, and the servants will listen to you, but if you don't go back to the tent, you still have to put it on."

Xiao Liu looked up at the night sky again, sighed and shook his head, "You are only afraid of Fourth Brother, and you only listen to his words. In the past, he took me to climb trees to watch stars, lie on stone steps to watch fireworks, and ride sleighs in the ice and snow. There are many more, those of you who have never said a word, so don't come to bluff me, the young master knows it very well."

Taiji smiled subtly, and only replied lightly, "That's the fourth elder brother protecting you. When did you not protect you well when you played? You won't freeze or fall, and the servants just look at you happily." Yes, of course I am also happy."

"Taiji! Hmph, An Zhen, I can't beat you, a slave." Xiao Liu walked around Taiji and rushed into the tent angrily.Taiji smiled again and followed closely behind. Since the fourth master had specially ordered him to take a bath tomorrow, he only wiped the little master's hands and feet slightly, watched him close his eyes, and then blow out the water. He lit a candle, pulled up the screen, and sat on the bed watching the little master by the starlight while silently shaking his fan.
