Daoist Lin sister [Red House]

The sky was high and the clouds were light, the wild geese were returning from the south, the autumn wind was coming quickly, and the fallen leaves were blowing up on the ground. In just one night, the whole capital was actually somewhat bleak.

Daiyu was wrapped in a cloak, only showing a small face, and walked out of the palace alone.Lin's carriage was already waiting at the palace gate.After receiving Daiyu, Xueyan helped Daiyu into the car, and the two sat down in the car.

The coachman raised his whip lightly, and the tip of the whip hit the air, making two crisp sounds.But before the whip fell to the ground, the horse got the letter and had to move its hooves and walk home.

"Girl, why is your complexion so pale? The little eunuch said that you were reading, copying, and studying some countermeasures. I still don't believe it. Is it true? It's a pity that the princess can't accompany you here. I'm really doing nothing waiting outside." Worry!" Xueyan asked distressedly while rubbing Daiyu's shoulders.

Daiyu's face was slightly tired, she stretched her waist upwards, yawned and said, "I'm really reading and copying books. It's not a big deal, it's just that I got up too early and read this book again. I am really tired of the books that have been written for so long."

Hearing this, Xueyan was relieved, had an idea, and said with a smile: "There are so many talented people, the empress does not call, but only you are called, it must be because the empress also knows that you are unparalleled, and you can write well." Words. However, I think it's more because you managed an elegant house so well, miss, that even a hundred talented people can't match it, and even the empress was shocked. You don't know, I heard Zijuan say that now Not only the scholars often live with us, but also the noble scholars, no matter discussing affairs, studying or chatting, they don’t go to their homes or look for restaurants, but only go to our place! I also heard from Uncle Fu that even Yipinju’s A lot of business has been robbed by us."

Xueyan has a lively personality, and she has been worried about Daiyu for a long time. Now that she is safe and sound, she is naturally overjoyed.A self-satisfied and proud look made Daiyu laugh.

"Then according to what you say, there is one thing missing in our elegant house, so that it is not perfect?" Daiyu teased her stubbornly.

Xueyan didn't understand, she blinked and asked, "I, I look very good, I don't think it's missing!"

"Food is the most important thing for the people. Since we have grabbed the Yipinju business, why don't we practice silk bamboo and meat together and open a big restaurant in Yasha, okay?" Daiyu asked.

Xueyan clapped her hands and applauded: "Very good! Very good!"

"Haha..." Daiyu seldom laughed out loud, scratching the tip of Snow Goose's nose and said, "There are not many people in the world who are as transparent as you. People in charge look down on cooks and kitchens. Otherwise, how can there be a saying that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen? If we really open a restaurant in Yashe, believe it or not, the business of Yipinju will be good immediately?"

Xueyan still didn't understand, she tilted her head and pondered for a long time before she suddenly realized: "Oh! Girl, I understand! You can eat anywhere, but you can't have vulgar smoke in Yadi!"

"Come on, you've also opened up your mind, how about I let you and sister Yinglian take care of the inner house together?" Daiyu said casually.

But Xueyan got anxious, shook her head and said without repeating: "I won't go, I won't go, I just want to be with the girl. Could it be that the servant did it—" Xueyan was anxious, and blurted out "servant" again .

Daiyu originally thought that Xueyan stayed by her side these years, served her attentively, and worked hard. Now that the property under her hands is blooming everywhere, she needs someone to take care of her everywhere. Naturally, she is the closest person by her side, so don't worry.Zijuan was arranged by her to help Sun's side, and now the two of them hold up half the sky. Shopkeepers from all over the capital come to report to Daiyu every month, and they have nothing to say about Sun and Zijuan .

Zijuan is old after all, and since Daiyu and Yongyu have been engaged, the day of marriage is not far away.Naturally, she also wanted to find a good home for the caring people around her who were called masters and servants, but were actually sisters.Daiyu has been helping Zijuan arrange her marriage recently, so she can't treat her badly anyway.

And Xueyan, although older than Daiyu, is still childish, not to mention marrying, she has never even thought about it.Daiyu questioned her side-by-side, but she answered indiscriminately, making everyone dumbfounded, so she put the matter aside.

Today, Daiyu saw that Xueyan took the initiative to bring up the matter of Yashe, thinking that she saw that Zijuan would be of great use to her and wanted to show her strengths, so she mentioned this, but Xueyan was frightened.

Daiyu hurriedly put a finger on Xueyan's mouth, pretending to be angry and said: "There are no outsiders now, how many times have I said that you are not allowed to call yourself a slave, why can't you change it? If you want to stay like this, I originally wanted to If you keep you, you have to send someone to work outside!"

Xueyan was so frightened that her eyes widened, and she didn't need Daiyu to gag her. She covered her mouth tightly with both hands, shaking her head like a rattle, showing that she remembered from now on.

Seeing this, Daiyu couldn't hold back any longer, and smiled.

Only then did Xueyan feel relieved, and leaned over to Daiyu's side again, took the initiative to expose the trouble just now, and asked about Daiyu's copying of books.

It turned out that very early in the morning, before dawn, a young eunuch came to the Lin residence with a lantern and delivered an order from the empress to let Daiyu enter the palace immediately.At that time, Lin Ruhai had just got up to go to the morning court.Ying Miaoyang was worried and wanted to go with Daiyu.But it caught up with her menstruation, and she couldn't get out of bed because of the pain.

Daiyu couldn't bear Miaoyang to be tormented by this, so she declined her kindness and left alone with the little eunuch.

On the way, Daiyu asked the eunuch carefully why the empress was in such a hurry to announce her into the palace?Who knew that the little eunuch was useless, he went around and talked for a long time, but he didn't say anything.Daiyu heard about elegant homes, droughts and ancient books intermittently, she felt a little bit concerned, bid farewell to the snow geese outside the palace gate, and entered the palace by herself.

Unexpectedly, instead of going to the empress's palace, she entered the forbidden place in the palace, Zangshu Pavilion.This book collection pavilion originally stored books accumulated in the past dynasties, and none of them have been tampered with.There are also countless palace secrets and many ancient books that cannot be seen on the market.And unless there is a token and decree in Zangshu Pavilion, no one is allowed to enter without authorization.All those who entered and exited the Zangshu Pavilion were recorded.Even historians, those who are ordered to compile history books and even classics, cannot easily enter.

Daiyu has really admired the great name of this book collection pavilion for a long time, and it is because of her stinginess.Chad met today, but I couldn't react for a while, followed the servant into the book pavilion in a daze, went up to the second floor, sat down behind a screen, and the fragrance of books rushed to her face, Daiyu Fang felt it, opened her eyes wide, curious looked around.

It turns out that the construction method of this library is not very different from that of the nearby bookstores. It is just rows of bookshelves, towering into the sky, like towering ancient trees, which looks amazing.And sorted according to the position of Taiji Bagua, the sub-collections of classics and history belong to their respective positions.

Daiyu looked at it carefully, and silently reconstructed the layout in her heart, and suddenly found that there was something strange in it, as if there was a strange gossip formation written in a book.If someone enters without permission, walks through it, does not know the way, does not know the way, and if there is no one to rescue him, he will starve to death without the help of the guards.

On this side, Daiyu was still looking around curiously, but a eunuch loudly explained why she came here.

It turned out that the locust plague in Ping'an Prefecture had been suppressed, and the disaster situation had greatly improved, but it was empty for ten days.The tenant farmers dare not take the rent, they are unable to take the rent, there is a drought, there are frequent rumors among the people.Fearing that others would cause trouble, they were specially ordered to come to consult and extract ancient books, and find out the reason for the frequent appearance of confused stars, which completely solved the dilemma in Ping'an Prefecture.

But Daiyu was even more puzzled. If the stars appeared frequently, Qin Tianjian should be invited to come.If it is drought prevention and water conservancy, it should be discussed in the court, and the six ministries will share the rewards.If we really want to use history as a mirror and find a source, it should be the matter of the masters and students of the Imperial Academy and Taixue. How could he call her the daughter of a foreign minister?

What's more, after Daiyu sat alone behind the screen, although she knew that there must be other people here, she couldn't see anyone, and she felt more and more uncertain.

Daiyu wanted to find someone to ask.Unexpectedly, those little eunuchs just brought a thick stack of ancient books, put them down on the long table in front of her, and left before she could ask.

Daiyu opened her lips again and again, she didn't know why, but she was at peace when she came, she had all the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and there were many ancient books that she had never read before, but the trip was worthwhile.Daiyu didn't think too much, and just read carefully.

In the twinkling of an eye, the hour was half over, and the sun was already out, but only a small corner of the book was missing in front of Daiyu.But it's not that she was too slow to read or copy too slowly, it's just that she read some of them, and then some eunuchs replaced them with new ones, and so on, without any loss.

Not long after, a eunuch brought a food box with several plates of snacks inside.Daiyu was obsessed with reading and didn't care about eating. After being reminded several times in a low voice, she casually grabbed snacks, without looking at them, gobbled down several mouthfuls, almost choked, and picked up the cold food next to her. The tea that was drunk was poured down directly.

The tea-drinking rules and the manners of fairies are all left out of the blue.

"Pfft!" On the third floor, in the middle of a small pavilion, which Daiyu mistakenly thought was a library, someone suddenly laughed out loud.

"This person is really interesting! The queen mother, the son-in-law is in love with her! How about letting her be my reading companion?" A delicate female voice sounded.

Hearing this, the empress replied in a low voice: "This is your future nephew and daughter-in-law. If you let Yongyu know that you asked his beloved to accompany you, he will not obey you carefully!"

The fifteenth princess, Niu Yun, said unyieldingly: "I just like her!" According to Yi Erchen's observation, she can read books at a glance, even those ancient books, some of which I have never read, but she seems to have read it before. Just put it aside, thinking it was a real read. What's more, the eunuch secretly copied the notes she made just now, but it is not boudoir knowledge. Since you allowed me to pick a companion to read, why did you go back on your word?"

It was rare for Niu Yun to speak so much, and for a moment his tongue caught his teeth, bumping against each other, and being bitten was painful.But she was afraid that the empress would really not follow her request, so she dared not rest for a while, so she hurriedly argued: "If it is true according to what you said, she can manage such a big elegant house in an orderly manner, even that old man Du I also want to praise him! I am so funny even though I am born with a temper, where can I find such a wonderful person?"

The Empress Empress urged Du Hanqing, and when she heard this, she was about to speak, but Niu Yun said first: "It's not like that Du Hanqing, who puts on airs when he sees everyone. Even now, he only read a few books, and suddenly asked for tea. , suddenly felt that the chair was too hard, how can she be really learned? It can be seen that she lost to Lin Daiyu at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and she was not as wronged as she said! The minister does not want her, but wants this niece and daughter-in-law!"

Speaking of which, Niu Yun, the fifteenth princess, is also a wonderful person. She is only eight years old this year, but she loves to read books since she was born. .Even the students who study hard for ten years can't compare with their hard work!

For this reason, his eyes were broken at a young age, and he went out with two pieces of glass on his back, causing other princes and grandchildren to laugh openly and secretly.Niu Yun became more angry and refused to go out, and gradually developed a very weird temper.

If it is said that Xichun, who Daiyu met in her previous life, was born with a cold personality, at a young age, she only wanted to ask the Buddha and asked, and she would be an aunt at every turn. Don't give up.

This made her biological mother, the empress, very worried!Although the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married, she can support her for fifteen years anyway.It's just that Shiwu's temperament, if she is allowed to grow up like this, I'm afraid she will never go out again, and she won't even be able to speak.

When the empress was thinking hard, Daiyu came up with an elegant house, which spread to everyone in the capital.Daiyu is modest, even Ying Miaoyang is not a gossiper, she never told the empress about the grand occasion of the elegant house and the inner house for girls to study and gather together.

At the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Du Hanqing suffered a disastrous defeat. Since then, he has stayed behind closed doors, not even entering the palace, just giving others a chance.The wives and girls from other families took advantage of the gaps, and often went to the empress's side.And when Daiyu just got engaged to Yongyu, there was no second moment in the limelight. Those people who are used to being high and depressing, they put more fuel on them to manage Daiyu's elegant house. Those of the three religions and nine streams, whoever passes through the capital, must enter the elegant house.Even the female relatives in the south drove thousands of miles and came from afar.

The empress was taken aback, she never expected that such a cool fairy like Daiyu would be a good material for business!Although the books are different, in the end, you must have good skills and ingenuity to achieve such achievements.I don't think I love Daiyu deeper.

And the first time she heard about this, the empress thought of her fifteenth princess, Niu Yun.

Before Niu Yun was six years old, he would occasionally go out to meet people, and even participated in the Hundred Flowers Banquet once.But ever since the mid-autumn palace banquet that year, Niu Yun suddenly pointed to the stars in the sky, saying that the last star had suddenly arrived, and the book said that disaster was about to come.It was really rude, and after being reprimanded by the emperor on the spot, he never went out again.The outsiders didn't know that the empress had a fifteenth princess, and even Ying Miaoyang hadn't seen Niu Yun for many years, so she forgot about her.

The empress repeatedly asked her to go out, but she always thought that there are thousands of years in the book, mountains and rivers and Kyushu, which is far better than slapping the world outside.And with the excuse of "I have no confidant in this world, I will be at a loss when I enter this world" as an excuse, and I don't want to see people.

"If Niu Yun knew that there was such a place outside, he would be willing to go out, right?" the empress thought to herself.

Unexpectedly, when the Queen Empress ran to Niu Yun Palace full of joy and told her about Jianglin Daiyu and Yashe vividly, Niu Yun didn't raise his head, his eyes were fixed on the book, like a sentence I didn't listen to the words.

The empress was about to give up, but she heard Niu Yunyou replied: "It's just a businessman's trick, the empress don't come to lie to me!"

As long as you listen to it, you are willing to speak!The empress was secretly delighted. "Whether it's true or not, you'll know when you see it with your own eyes. How could the empress lie to you?"

"Why not?" Although Niu Yun was stupid, he didn't stay in a daze, he glanced at ten lines, flipped the pages of the book quickly, and said: "Mother, seeing that I don't go out, has there been a lot of tricks these years?"

The empress's phoenix face was slightly red, and she said angrily: "How dare you say that! As long as you have a filial piety, you will not let me worry so much these years. I will never lie to you this time! This time, the election will be held at the same time. , the father and the father will also choose a companion for the princesses, and the queen mother will decide to choose one with you."

Before the empress finished speaking, Niu Yun waved her left hand and said, "Queen, don't do this! Those women, each boasting of their talents, are all gold and jade on the outside but on the inside. I will ask a random question, and they I can't answer it. So, how can you be my attendant?"

"This time, the Empress Mother will not choose someone from the small selection for you, but only choose famous and talented women in the capital, and ask you to compare them with questions. The place will be in the Library Pavilion, and you can choose whoever suits you. Even Lin Daiyu, the owner of the elegant house, and the queen mother also called you. Let you see the demeanor of others with your own eyes, and then you will know that there are people beyond others. At that time, you will beg me to let you go to that elegant house, but I may not agree. !"

Niu Yun was not interested in reading with her, but when she heard that the empress had allowed her to enter the library, she was overjoyed, bookworms were very excited, and she agreed in a hurry, regardless of meeting people.But when he turned his head, he came up with many ideas, so that the empress ordered people to arrange it like this.

Therefore, Daiyu actually came to participate in the "small election" today, but she didn't know it.

Apart from Daiyu, there is also Du Hanqing, and many ladies from famous families. They are located in different places, separated by the gossip formation that comes with Cangshu Pavilion, so they can't see each other.

As for the method of disaster relief, astrology and divination, Niu Yun deliberately made things difficult for others.

Everyone reads the Four Books and Five Classics.How amazing is it to know a little?She is interested in astronomy and water conservancy, agriculture, mulberry and harvesting, medicine, divination and astrology, and has dabbled in all of them. Such talents are worthy of being Niu Yun's confidant and companion.

Although Niu Yun is looking for a companion to read, he is not a slave but a confidant, so naturally his requirements are different.

Obviously, Daiyu passed the customs smoothly.

However, the empress's finding a companion for Niu Yun was the second priority, but the most important thing was to correct her crooked temperament, let her go to the elegant house, find a group of like-minded friends, and finally enter the world of mortals.

Therefore, the empress said: "Since this is the case, the empress mother can't be in charge! Miss Lin is already a careful prince and concubine, and she has everything she needs. On the contrary, if she is a companion for you, she will lose her status. It also made Prince Xian's family displeased. For this matter, both parties must be willing to do it! If you recognize her, you have to make friends with sincerity, so that they also recognize you and volunteer to be your companion."

"What's so difficult about this?" Niu Yun puffed out his chest and said proudly, "I will write a handwritten letter when I go back, I believe she will read it, and I am determined to make friends with my son!"

Hearing this, the empress almost fell backwards in anger!Lin Daiyu was right in front of her, and this idiot insisted on writing and talking, so it's possible that her mouth really grew on someone else.

The empress was annoyed, she flicked her sleeves and said, "My palace won't deliver this letter for you! Besides, you want to make friends with people, but you have no sincerity. Send a letter and use your status as a princess to suppress people. Don't say that Lin Girl, even Ben Gong doesn't like you!"

But Niu Yun didn't expect to say this.She only thinks that there are thousands of words in her pen, and seeing the words are as good as the face, it is enough for a gentleman and a god.how do you know...

"The queen mother said, what should I do?" Niu Yun lowered his head, his eyes were slightly red, as if he had been greatly wronged.

Seeing this, the empress felt a little calm, and finally it wasn't hopeless. "Fazi, the queen mother has told you many times. Miss Lin opened an elegant house to welcome guests from all over the world. Anyone with talent and good reading can go in. There is also an inner house, which is a boudoir Girl. If you have the heart, the queen mother will ask your brother to take you out of the palace and meet people face to face."

"Going out of the palace?" Niu Yun hesitated a little, couldn't help but looked down at Daiyu again, gradually lowered the pile of books, gritted his teeth and nodded, "So, I'm going to see that elegant house, can you please?" It has a style of the Warring States Period!"

After the decision was made, Daiyu, who was still addicted to books, was forcibly called up by the eunuch, rewarded with a lot of things, and sent out of the palace in a daze.

Just as she was leaving the Zangshu Pavilion, Daiyu bumped into Niu Yun head-on.

But Daiyu didn't know her.All I saw was a thin and small girl who was only as tall as her shoulders, with an oval face and fluffy hair, bumping her head sullenly at herself.

Fortunately, Daiyu was quick to dodge to the side, so the two didn't collide.

The little girl seemed to have only noticed the appearance of someone until now, and looked up at Daiyu in surprise.

Only now did Daiyu see two big round pieces of glass on the bridge of her small nose, which looked quite heavy, as if the glass was too heavy for her to lift her head.

Daiyu had never seen a girl with such a description, and Niu Yun was dressed in casual clothes, she looked no different from a little palace maid.For a moment Daiyu didn't dare to misrecognize her.

Next to the eunuch, just as the eunuch was about to speak, Niu Yun interrupted: "You (Lin), your girl, I like you very, very much! Just wait for me, I'm going to Yashe to meet you!"

Niu Yun was not used to talking to outsiders, so he made up his mind to speak this time, he was so nervous that he went back to the old state of the school, he couldn't even say the word "Lin".

After speaking, Niu Yun seemed to feel ashamed, and without looking back, he plunged into the Library Pavilion again, turning around and disappearing in a blink of an eye.

"She is familiar with inner formations, so it can be seen that she often goes in and out! But, why is she speaking so strangely?" Daiyu thought to herself, and wanted to ask the eunuch who was about to speak just now who Niu Yun was.

The eunuch saw that Niu Yun interrupted Niu Yun when he opened his mouth just now. Although he heard Niu Yun say what he liked about Daiyu, he still couldn't figure out the temperament of this weird princess.Knowing that the empress didn't like outsiders talking about the fifteenth princess, she shook her head at Daiyu, indicating that she could not answer.

Daiyu became more and more puzzled.

Until sitting in her own carriage, telling Xueyan what happened today, and mentioning Niu Yun, Daiyu said: "But she is really a strange little girl! The tone of her voice is also weird, a little..."

Daiyu recalled Niu Yun's appearance and voice, and said after a while: "Like a child learning to speak, not very fluent."

"There is such a person?" Xueyan twitched a pimple, "Why did she say that she likes the girl and wants to go to Yashe? How can the maids leave the palace at will?"

Xueyan's words awakened the dreamer, Daiyu slapped her forehead and said: "By the way, she is definitely not a palace lady. There is no such young palace lady. Looking at her behavior, it is possible that she is the one who came with me today." Is the family daughter worth it?"

Niu Yun didn't go out all year round, he didn't like to move around, he was very weak and short.At first glance, it looks like he is only six or seven years old, no wonder Daiyu misunderstood him.

The two were talking in the car, and in a blink of an eye the carriage turned into the most prosperous cross street in Beijing, and the voices of people suddenly became loud.

Xueyan raised the car curtain by a small corner, and the two quietly looked out through the gap.

Just catching up with two young men dressed as Wen Sheng, they passed by Daiyu's carriage while talking.

One of them, dressed in white and long gown, spoke slightly under his chin, and the taller one said first: "Brother Liu, you know, in just a few days, the throne of the most talented woman in the capital will be replaced by someone else."

"Oh? Brother Li is very knowledgeable! I am ignorant, but I have never heard of it. I still need to ask Brother Li." Another blue-clothed, yellowish-faced, thin man responded.

Although the two were talking about anecdotes and anecdotes and women were involved, they were pretending to be noble, and they talked about each other, and they were quite flattering to each other, and they were full of sourness.

When Daiyu heard this, she curled her lips and was about to turn her head away.

Unexpectedly, the next sentence of the man in white was: "Brother Liu is too modest! I have only heard about it in Yashe. She is actually a beautiful woman nicknamed 'Xiaoxiang Concubine'."

"Stop!" Daiyu hurriedly called after hearing this.

The car dealership is busy in the city, so I can't walk fast.And the coachman who drove Daiyu was Lin Fu's best handlebar style. Hearing the sound, he immediately stopped the carriage.

"Xueyan, tell Lin Neng to stop the man in white who was speaking just now, and ask him if he knows who Concubine Xiaoxiang is?" Daiyu ordered, keeping her eyes on the two, for fear of losing their whereabouts.

Xueyan led the order to go out.

After a while, Lin Neng caught up with the two people who were walking and chatting.

Sitting in the car, Daiyu watched the three people talking, but she couldn't hear the sound, she scratched her heart and liver, very anxious.

I saw that Lin Neng stepped forward quickly, stopped the two people who were walking, and stepped forward to talk with a smile.

At first, those two people were walking along the road, but they were suddenly called by Lin Neng, but when they turned around, they found that they didn't recognize the person who came.What's more, for the convenience of driving, Lin Neng still wears short clothes, not a scholar.Especially the man in white was rather arrogant. Seeing that Lin Neng was a rough man, although he was well-dressed, he was unwilling to talk to him easily.

Lin Neng is also an old man, he has helped Daiyu drive for a long time, and he is used to the arrogant appearance of scholars, so he knows how to deal with them best.Before the man in white refused, Lin Neng hurriedly bowed his head and saluted the two of them upright. After showing enough face, he said, "Gentlemen, hold back for a while. If you dare to ask this gentleman, would you please?" Is it the great talent who once fought against all the Confucians in the elegant house and won the top star, nicknamed 'Bai Xiusheng'?"

The man in white didn't even have a reputation as a scholar, he was actually a bookseller, and he went to Yashe just to make money for his stature, not to mention the war of words, even books, he had never copied a single one.He had never heard of the name "Bai Xiusheng".

In fact, it is no wonder that he has never heard of the name "Bai Xiusheng", in fact, the so-called "Bai Xiusheng" is just a mixture of white-clothed scholars and scholars.

Lin Neng can only know a few words, so why would he have an alias?The words rushed to this point, so I made a random nonsense.

But he caught up with this white clothed man who is a man for fame and fame, this brother Liu next to him is also a new acquaintance with him, and he has no close friendship, so naturally he doesn't know how much he weighs.

When the man surnamed Liu heard what Lin Neng said, his eyes lit up. He thought he was ingratiating himself to a generation of literary giants, and hurriedly followed up to compliment him: "I don't know that brother Li has such a great talent, but he doesn't show it at all. My little brother has superficial knowledge. However, just now, I am ashamed to be so pretentious in front of Brother Zun! Ashamed!"

Brother Liu put on the tall hat again, and for a while, it was difficult for the man in white to admit that he was not a Bai Xiusheng.This person surnamed Li thought that no one else would know about it, and that Bai Xiusheng used an alias, and no one knew what his real name was, so he just kept doing nothing and acquiesced.

The man in white pawed at his chest, stroked his beard with his right hand, and pretended to be profound: "Ahem, since I use an alias, I don't want others to know my real name. Only you and I know about this, so don't make it public. .”

The one surnamed Liu kept nodding.

Lin Neng lowered his head, seemingly respectful, but actually almost laughed out loud.

In the eyes of Daiyu in the carriage behind her, she thought that the man in white was making things difficult for Lin Neng, and she was unwilling to reveal the truth easily, so she became more anxious.

Unexpectedly, the more anxious she was, the calmer the three of them became.They gradually looked like they were having a happy conversation, and judging by the posture of the three of them, Lin Neng seemed to be about to treat them to a drink.

Daiyu was confused again, she asked Xueyan puzzledly, "Could it be that Lin Neng and those two are old acquaintances?"

Naturally, Xueyan couldn't answer, so she stared with big eyes and could only watch.

At the other end, the man in white had done his best, but he was also guilty. He didn't know what Lin Neng was looking for him, so he asked, "I don't know why Brother Lin made a special trip to find someone 'Bai'?"

Lin Neng then half-pushed and half-said: "In fact, I heard that only you, Bai Xiusheng, know who is Yashe's new star 'Xiaoxiang Concubine'. I'm really curious who those gods should be, and I hope you can enlighten me."

Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black. Lin Neng is also quite capable of saying a few sour words.

Sure enough, the man in white raised his chest even higher when he heard the words, and said contemptuously: "You are really asking the right person! If others say that they know who this Xiaoxiang concubine is, they must be lying to you. Just say that this man in the capital city Here, no one is looking for this concubine or fairy nowadays. But they only hear her voice and don’t see her person. Even the master of Yashe who has eyes and hands can’t be found. Only here, I have a solid trust.”

"Oh? Just about to ask for advice." Lin Neng bowed.

The man in white suddenly stopped talking, and put his hands into his sleeves instead, his eyes only stared at the signboard of the Silver Building next to him.

Lin Neng knew that this person wanted money, but he couldn't be easily deceived. He laughed and said, "As long as you can give me an accurate letter, you can tell the concubine Xiaoxiang's name and where she lives, don't tell me." A few taels of silver for wine, even a few taels of gold, I can afford it."

"Nonsense!" The man in white heard the words, his face was full of brilliance, but he pretended to be innocent and said: "You underestimate me, Bai Xiusheng! How can I be the kind of person who is greedy for money? It's just that my brother came from afar. Come, but I have never entertained you well. How many taels, how many taels of gold do you have now, but you are just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha."

Fearing that Lin Neng would go back on his word, the man in white exchanged the silver for gold, and deliberately made the words "a few taels of gold" very clear.

Daiyu is very generous to her servants, and she has long let go of the matter of finding Xiaoxiang concubine.Not to mention a few taels of gold, even more, Lin Neng can afford it.

Lin Neng pretended to be listening attentively, and took out a silver ingot from his bosom, and played with it in his hand, to show that he would not renege on his debts.

The white-clothed man then said: "It's a coincidence, after I heard about this concubine Xiaoxiang's deeds in Yashe, I was also very eager for her. Coincidentally, my family has a small property, and there is a four-treasure shop for the study. That day, I was in the In the store, a little girl came to my store to buy a lot of pens, ink, paper and inkstones. I asked her casually, did she buy it for her son? Who would have thought that the little girl would say that it was not a son but a girl. I asked her , I think your girl must be a talented woman, otherwise how would she use all these precious papers? What do you think the maid will answer?"

The man in white couldn't speak well, seeing that Lin Neng was listening attentively, he deliberately asked questions.

Lin Neng could only grit his teeth and agree, "How did you answer?"

The man in white was satisfied now, put on airs, and imitated the girl's tone and said: "The servant girl replied, she is naturally a talented woman, not only a talented woman, but also the most talented woman in the capital. But I see that although she is wearing gold and jade, she has no silk or silk. Duan, definitely not a servant of Du Zaifu's family."

Actually, the man in white was not telling the truth.It's not that the maid's clothes are not well dressed, but that his shop has a full range of categories, but it's all located in Xicheng.Even if the servants of Du Zaifu's family wanted to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones, they would not travel across the entire capital to find his family.

"I laughed at her for making outrageous words. Who knows that maid is very temperamental, and was immediately irritated by me. She opened her mouth and said that her girl is also called Concubine Xiaoxiang. If I don't believe it, just go to Yashe to inquire about it." Here, the man in white stopped again, but took his hands out of his sleeves and stretched them out in front of him.

But Lin Neng couldn't afford a few taels of gold for a while, and when he was in distress, Xueyan came over.

Xueyan and Daiyu watched behind for a long time, and finally figured out some ways.

Daiyu saw that the man in white was talking eloquently, but suddenly stopped, and fiddled with his hands, she had a flash of inspiration, knowing that she was asking for money, she hurriedly asked Xueyan to come over with a money bag to help.

Lin Neng saw Xue Yan coming with the money bag, he was relieved immediately, pointed to Xue Yan and said: "This is my son's maid, as long as what you say is true, this money bag..."

The man in white looked at the heavy purse in Xueyan's hand, swallowed his saliva, and saw that Xueyan's makeup was more refined than that of other young ladies, and without any doubt, he said like a bean in a bamboo tube: "The concubine Xiaoxiang My family name is Xue, and I live in an old Beijing official's house in Xinghua Lane, Xicheng. But I just moved here. I heard from the neighbors that the family is an imperial merchant, and they are in charge of purchasing for the inner court. They have a huge family business. The master passed away, and now he is the butler of the young master."

Seeing that Lin Neng seemed suspicious, the man in white hurriedly added: "I found out that the young master's name is Xue Pan, known as the Overlord, and there is only one girl in the family who is waiting for her. Presumably it must be the concubine Xiaoxiang!"

The author has something to say: There is a little angel who guessed right, it is Xue Baochai.

Baochai and Daiyu have lived together for a long time, and they are the most attentive of the sisters in the Red Chamber.Imitating Daiyu's words and sentences will naturally be a bit hot.

As for the other name of the concubine Xiaoxiang, when the Grand View Garden was built, everyone thought that Daiyu would definitely live in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, so we can know her usual mood.

The reason for imitating Daiyu is very simple.Baochai knows that Daiyu is the owner of Yashe, and appreciates Daiyu's talent. At present, the fastest way to become famous is the second Lin Daiyu.

And just to be on the safe side, she still kept her Xue Baochai side.
