Chapter 240 Brother Chapter 240 Banquet Guide
The assassination of officials during the Chinese New Year, from the emperor to the courtiers, all attach great importance to it. With this emphasis, Mr. Xiaowen's holiday will be gone. It's national holidays, Mr. Xiaowen has to work overtime, Yu Zhi sympathizes with him.
Of course, this would be more believable if she wasn't gnawing on the big bones.
As soon as he thought that he would be able to move out of Marquis Wu'an Mansion after the first lunar month, Yu Zhi felt that the big bone in his hand was even more fragrant. Even if they only lived in the Pingbei Hou's Mansion for a month or two, they would go out to work outside Beijing, and Yu Zhi didn't mind making troubles at all.
Lives in Marquis Wu'an Mansion, which is under the watchful eye of the leader. She wants to do something, and with so many eyes watching, it is too inconvenient for any trouble to be transmitted to the leader's ears at once.
Living in the Pingbeihou Mansion is different. She is the leader, and all the slaves in the Mansion must listen to her. The so-called sky is high and the emperor is far away, that's what it means!
On this day, as soon as Wen Jiuxiao returned to the mansion, Mrs. Hou invited her over, because of the incident at Prince Ping's mansion. The reason why I didn't say it before is that isn't it Chinese New Year? The yamen is busy, how can she bother the third child with these messy things? Besides, isn't the third daughter-in-law all right?
Of course, she still has a hidden worry in her heart. The youngest takes Yu Shi too seriously, and he has always been a bold and upright person. Who knows what he will do when he is angry? Who is the royal princess... She is afraid that the third child will cause trouble.
As for whether Mrs. Yu will tell the third child? In the end, Yu's failure was due to lack of knowledge, maybe he couldn't see Princess Anle here at all. And after she tried it out, Mrs. Yu didn't take what happened in Prince Ping's Mansion seriously, and didn't mention the premise to the third child.
While Madam Hou breathed a sigh of relief, she also had a headache. With someone like Mrs. Yu, how can she help the third child socialize in the future?
Why did you tell your son again now? Isn't this the past year? The most important thing is that Mrs. Hou inquired quietly that there are generals guarding the Taoist temple where Princess Anle is, and the only one who can send troops to guard the Taoist temple is the emperor.
Princess Anle couldn't get out of the Taoist temple, and there were soldiers guarding her outside. Even if the third child wanted to do something, she couldn't do it.
Oh, Mrs. Hou also has her own selfishness. The third child will know about the affairs of Prince Ping's mansion sooner or later. If he knows it from outsiders, won't he hate her as a mother? She didn't want to be divorced from her third son.
Wen Jiuxiao didn't even know how he got out of his mother's yard, his mind was swollen, full of various thoughts. No matter how nice her mother's words were, no matter how much she pretended to be good for him, Wen Jiuxiao knew in her heart that her mother was not as selfless as she said.
When he was young, he could read people's faces, and when he got older, he was even more speculative about people's hearts. He didn't say he knew everything about what his mother was thinking, but he knew about 80% or 90%. It was because he knew that he was so disappointed.
Wen Jiuxiao thought that he had made it obvious enough, but his mother still didn't take his wife seriously. Zhizhi was almost plotted, and it took so long for his mother to tell him.
There is also Zhizhi... She is not really outspoken and dull, can she not know that others have set her a trap?
However, when she came back from Prince Ping's Mansion, she complained that the tea in Prince Ping's Mansion was mediocre and that the dim sum was not refined enough, but she didn't say that she was almost plotted against.
Wen Jiuxiao clenched his fists, really wanted to see her right away, and ask her why, is he so untrustworthy? Can't she rely on him for a while?
He strode forward with only one thought in his mind. When he was about to reach the yard, the wind blew and he came back to his senses.
No, he can't go to see Zhizhi with this appearance, it will scare Zhizhi.
Wen Jiuxiao stopped, closed his eyes, suppressed the churning emotions in his eyes, rubbed his face again, took a few deep breaths, and then stepped into the yard.
From a distance, the curtain of the main room was opened, and a desk was placed in the middle of the door. Yu Zhi was sitting in front of the desk facing the door, writing something with a pen in his hand.
As he got closer, the table became more and more familiar. It was confirmed that it was the one in the study. Is this woman going to practice calligraphy?
"What are you writing?" Wen Jiuxiao asked.
Yu Zhi raised his head, as if he had just noticed him, "The third master is back." After a pause, he said vaguely, "Write something."
Write something, something? It's no wonder that Wen Jiuxiao was suspicious, it was really this woman's handwriting, right? It's not bad, it's just too good to be obvious, and occasionally I miss a few strokes. As for things, besides the script, what else is in this woman's mind?
"Write poetry?" Although he knew it was unlikely, Wen Jiuxiao asked.
Yu Zhi rolled his eyes at him, "Of course...not! How can a little girl compare to Zhuangyuan Lang? After all, people like me can only write low-level poems like 'the moon hangs round the sky', right? Champion man?"
Wen Jiuxiao coughed uncomfortably, a little short of breath, "Didn't I say nothing?"
Yu Zhi gave him another look, and said that her poems had been reduced to a low level, so she didn't say anything? Well, she admitted that she didn't light up the skill of poetry, and "the moon is round and round in the sky" is already her full skill.
But is it so despised by him? Say a few nice words to coax her to kill him?
At this moment, according to past experience, Wen Jiuxiao really wanted to run away, but he couldn't bear the curiosity, so he stretched his head to look at the table, "You wrote...the guide to the banquet?" What do you mean? very confused.
"Yes, 'Guide to the Banquet'!" Yu Zhi admired his masterpiece, and said with emotion: "Are you still anxious because you don't understand the unspoken rules of various banquets in the capital? Are you troubled by guns and arrows? Are you still secretly sad because you don’t understand the twists and turns of famous women? Here is a banquet guide carefully crafted by Master Yu to help you interpret the social rules of ladies and understand their habits. Avoid all kinds of tricks and temptations, all kinds of insinuations, all kinds of calculations, all kinds of big pits, small pits, pits in pits, and serial pits, and achieve a magnificent life and reach the pinnacle of life."
She cast a charming wink at Wen Jiuxiao, and hooked his chin with her fingers, "Wen Zhuangyuanlang, do you need a copy?"
Wen Jiuxiao was dumbfounded, and Yu Zhi couldn't help it. What is a banquet guide? And Master Yu... Do you mean herself?
"Don't you really need a copy? Not only women, but also men should take good care of themselves. For the sake of acquaintances, I'll give you a discount, only five taels of silver. This is a valuable life experience, sure Dry goods. Look here, someone invites you to swim in the lake, watch fish, appreciate lotus..."
Before he finished speaking, Wen Jiuxiao picked him up, "Don't get close to the water, you will fall into the water if you get together, right?"
Yu Zhi's expression froze, and he met Shang Wen Jiuxiao's gaze, and smiled, "Then what, ha, you already know?"
Wen Jiuxiao looked at Yu Zhi, looking at her uncomfortably, "Why are you looking at me like that? It's creepy."
"Prince Ping's Mansion..." Wen Jiuxiao thought about what to say, but finally gave up, and said directly: "You didn't say anything when you came back."
Facing Wen Jiuxiao's accusation, Yu Zhi felt a little guilty, "Would you believe me if I said I forgot?"
She really forgot. Originally, she was going to share with Wen Jiuxiao how she killed all directions and stunned all the wives. Isn’t this barbecue so delicious, did she forget about it?
When she remembered again, it was already a few days later, so what else?
Ask for a monthly pass!
