Chapter 120
Mrs. Cai received the post and sent someone to speak to Fanggong.
Seeing that nothing happened, Chi Yun took out his clothes as usual.
The Duke of Zheng is the home of Princess Liyang.
He has made outstanding achievements for generations.
The eldest princess delivered it a few days ago was the birthday party from the Duke of Zheng’s mansion.
This is a stepping stone and a test.
Chi Yun didn't know what the eldest princess wanted to achieve, she just wanted to do her own thing as usual.
For example, take this opportunity to solve the troubles of the Cai family.
...
On a rare day of rest, Lou Yan changed into casual clothes and wanted to go out for a walk.
Before he reached the door, the concierge came to report: "Young Master Yu is visiting."
Lou Yan was not doing well yet, Ye Yu jumped up all of a sudden.
"Why is Mr. Yu so idle? The fourth master finally had a day off and he came to disturb me again? Fourth master, let's not meet me, right? How many times have you been drinking these days? It's not good to drink like this."
Lou Yan was also a little nauseous.
He had to drink medicinal wine every night, but this way of drinking was really a bit unstoppable.
While hesitating, the concierge came to inform him again: "Young Master Yu said that if the young master doesn't see you, he will go to burn incense."
Before Ye Yu could open her mouth, she heard Lou Yan say, "Since you are here, please invite him in."
“…”
Soon, Yu Shenzhi came in with a smile.
Seeing Lou Yan's outfit, he said, "Didn't I bother Brother Lou? Are you going out?"
Lou Yanmu had no expression: "It's okay, you will be disturbed when you go out anyway."
Yu Shenzhi laughed, as if he couldn't hear the sarcasm in his words, and said, "Since we are going to go out, let's have a walk together? Today is the rest of the day, the Changle Pool must be very lively. We can go boating or listen to the poetry meeting."
Lou Yan didn't want him to stay in the house, so he agreed.
However, Yu Shenzhi miscalculated and the two of them were seen by Yuan Qian before they even arrived at Changlechi Street.
He asked, "What are you doing?"
Yu Shenzhi replied: "It's nothing, just go there."
Yuan Qian then pulled him: "If you have nothing to do, just follow me to the Duke of Zheng's mansion. Today, the old lady of Duke of Zheng will celebrate her birthday. It is not convenient for your sister-in-law to show off. But I really can't talk about those noble children. It's easier to bear with you."
Yu Shenzhi said: "But I made an appointment with a friend..."
"Then let's go together." Yuan Qian said casually, "The scenery in the Duke of Zheng's mansion is good. If you come too, just treat us as a tour."
Yu Shenzhi and this cousin were very compatible, so he went to see Lou Yan.
Lou Yan said: "It's okay."
In fact, he wanted to leave Yu Shenzhi even more, but it was impossible to think about it. If he didn't go, Yu Shenzhi would definitely not go.
Forget it, the Duke of Zheng is just the Duke of Zheng, and it’s the same wherever you go.
The three of them turned to the Duke of Zheng's Mansion. Yuan Xiangye's son brought someone to him, so the gatekeeper naturally would not stop him, not to mention that the identities of these two people were extraordinary.
It was Lou Yan a little awkward, and since he entered the door, he had been looked at him.
That year, Mr. Lou Si fled thousands of miles and went to Beijing to file a complaint, which was also a major event.
Some people say that he is ambition and wants to compete for the throne with his brother. Some people say that King Beixiang is cruel and ruthless. As soon as his father dies, he wants to kill his younger brother.
After all, this disaster will happen, because the old prince was too fond of his young son when he was alive. This made his young son develop undeserved ambitions and made his eldest son jealous.
All families learn from this and warned their children that they must not break the rules and regulations.
Lou Yan himself was quite at ease. After taking the imperial examination and becoming an official, he seemed to be separated from the princes of the royal family in the past. He had never appeared in such an occasion in three years.
Now that he suddenly appears, it inevitably makes people guess the purpose.
Yuan Qian greeted someone he knew and came over to talk to them.
Yu Shenzhi said: "Cousin, you still have time to come to such a place. Are you not busy with your studies?"
Yuan Qian smiled bitterly: "What are you busy with? If you want to talk about those books, I have read them, but the articles are not as good as you. My father has accepted his fate, so just ask me to do my best."
He rarely gathers his talents in the father and son generation. Yuan Xiangye himself has literary talent and charm, crushing his peers. In the next generation, although Yuan Qian is good, he is inferior to Yu Shenzhi.
They are similar in age. Yu Shenzhi easily took the Tanhua exam at the age of nineteen. Yuan Qian was late and still felt unsure.
Yu Shenzhi comforted: "My cousin's homework is solid, and as long as she performs as usual, it will not be difficult to win. To talk about strategy, focus on the meaning of the question, and work steadily, is the examiner's favorite thing."
As he said that, he glanced at Lou Yan: "In terms of literary talent, my article may not be as good as Brother Lou. The reason why he ranked higher than him is because he is stable."
Yuan Qian nodded: "Sir, that's what he said, but my father doesn't like this statement very much."
Of course, Prince Yuan can crush him with his talent, so there is no need to make this trick.
When the two talked about articles, they asked Lou Yan from time to time, but they had a great conversation.
As he was talking, a burst of laughter suddenly broke out in his ears.
The three of them looked over and saw Yao Yi who was proud of the crowd at first glance.
Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. Most of them are from the fragrance of books, while Yao Yi is mainly surrounded by playboys.
Yuan Qian's face turned ugly after hearing this.
"He still has the face to say that the Cai family is almost forced to hang by him."
Yu Shenzhi hurriedly asked, "Did you talk about Miss Cai? He hasn't made enough trouble yet?"
"How could it be enough? He is trying to force the Cai family to send his daughter to him as a concubine!" Yuan Qian lowered his voice and said what the Cai family had encountered recently, "Listen, where did you learn the rogue method."
Yu Shenzhi thought to himself: "This is really a bit difficult. There is no force robbery or a threat. Even if he sues the emperor, it is difficult to reason."
"Isn't it? It's so shady! The son of the Cai family is in the Imperial College with me. I heard that he has been troubled by rumors and can't stand it and ask for leave to go home."
Yuan Qian asked him: "Cousin, you have always had an idea. Can you think of a solution?"
Yu Shenzhi looked at Lou Yan: "Brother Lou, what do you think?"
Lou Yan said lightly: "As long as someone with a status comes out and says something, it will be done. However, the Cai family is not worth enough and cannot alarm those people."
Yuan Qian and Yu Shenzhi both looked a little embarrassed when they heard this.
Even if the Yuan family and the Yu family are not in their identities, they can still invite those people, such as the emperor, Zong Zheng, or hand them in front of Princess Kang.
But if you owe someone favors this way, you will offend others. They don’t want to say it to their elders.
It would be a bit hypocritical if you didn't do your best to be indignant...
Yao Yi and the others started to make a noise again, but the women from each family arrived.
Wherever they are, they can see the parking place from afar, so they take the opportunity to give it a try.
Lou Yan was displeased and turned his head and didn't look.
