Chapter 9: The Southern Tour of the Messenger (Eight)

In the past three days, Tian Wan sent countless people to investigate and secretly search for the traces of the emperor's southern tour of the underwear, which made Yangzhou and several nearby counties suddenly become in panic. However, not many people knew the inside story. Qian Longxi even issued a strict order to not disclose the news of the emperor's southern tour of the underwear. Therefore, what he saw was that the undercurrents were constantly surging underground, but no trouble had been made, because once a trouble broke out at this time, it would attract the emperor's attention, so what he wanted was peace!

Compared to Tian Wan's hair being half worried, Zhu Yinglong led a family to live in Meilou and lived a very leisurely and comfortable life.

Gu Hengbo and Ren Xia are generous and like to make friends with all kinds of people. Therefore, on the ground of Yangzhou, although she is just a romantic woman, she is still very happy. Therefore, with her cover, even if there are a few more people in the Mysterious Building, it does not attract the special attention of the government, and Zhu Yinglong's identity is not at risk of being exposed.

Gu Hengbo's personality is a bit rebellious, which makes some feudal guards very uncomfortable, especially what she desires most is freedom of love and equal marriage, but later generations have many controversies, and even portrays her as a shameless erotic woman, etc.

However, in Zhu Yinglong's eyes, in addition to his beautiful appearance, Gu Hengbo also has a heart that pursues equality and freedom, especially like Yang Lianying, who had endless curiosity about him at the beginning. Imagine that a talented girl, a friend who does not take the talented people in the world, would willingly commit to an ignorant man. If he did not really fall in love with him, Li Xiangjun and Yang Lianying would definitely not put their lives within that red wall, because they were not those shallow women, and there was only wealth and glory in their eyes!

Gu Hengbo's curiosity was nothing at the beginning. Zhu Yinglong only thought she had a whim, but then, Zhu Yinglong found that the look she looked at her had an unsearchable smell, exactly the same as the look she had when Yang Lianying pestered her. Girls like Gu Hengbo, who are independent and individual, usually dare to love and hate.

In fact, this is also a bit of Zhu Yinglong's fault for showing off himself. Although he is not good at poetry and songs, or he does not know how to essay, he has traveled through time. After all, he still remembers the lyrics of several classic pop songs. First, Yang Lianying, and then Gu Hengbo, now, are all conquered by the lyrics he plagiarized, especially various novel tunes, which make the song no longer specialized in literati and poets, and become appreciated by both the elite and the masses. Especially the lyrics are easy to understand. The common people not only understand, but also have a strong infectious singing. Zhu Yinglong, who grew up listening to popular songs, taught them all classic songs that have been sung for a long time. In addition, Zhu Yinglong still loves martial arts, Gu Hengbo is a woman with a chivalrous demeanor. The two really hit it off and sparks of love pop.

"Sister, do you think Sister Hengbo has fallen in love with our young master?" Yang Lianying asked her sister Li Xiangjun very sensitively.

Li Xiangjun smiled slightly. She had already seen this. Gu Hengbo fell in love with Zhu Yinglong at first sight, but the emperor's thoughts were hard to say. He smiled and said, "You, stop thinking about it, play chess, if you lose tonight, I will be the only one with the young master."

"Hmph, I know you are not kind. Even though I know that my chess skills are not as good as you, I actually want to be the only young master in this way!" Yang Lianying glared at Li Xiangjun with contempt.

Li Xiangjun giggled and said, "So what? If you win, you will be alone with the young master tonight!"

"No!" Yang Lianying raised her lips slightly, and she didn't know that she was at a loss.

"Then how about I ask your three sons?"

"Three sons, I'm not even a good match!" Yang Lianying was so worried that she didn't want to play chess with Li Xiangjun, and she came to bet who would be hugged by Zhu Yinglong tonight and fall asleep!

"If you don't compare, don't compare. Okay, how about Hengbo?" Li Xiangjun said in a relaxed mood.

"Aren't you not interested just now?" Yang Lianying said in surprise.

"It was just now, now is now." Li Xiangjun smiled faintly, "Lianying, have you ever thought that we have chosen to take today's path, but what kind of path is this? Have you ever thought about it?"

Yang Lianying said blankly: "What road?"

"This is a road full of thorns. You and I may not have the chance to reach the end, but I don't regret it. He is not an ordinary man, right?" Although Li Xiangjun is very calm in dealing with things, it does not mean that she has no worries at all. She used to be a female official, so she didn't have to consider this, but now her identity is different. When they return to Beijing, their identity will change drastically, and the life in the palace is not as beautiful as imagined.

"Sister is worried about us going back?" Yang Lianying was also a smart woman, and soon understood what Li Xiangjun was thinking.

"Yes, Lianying, have you ever thought about our future path and our location in the harem?" Li Xiangjun asked.

"This?" Yang Lianying obviously had never thought of such a profound question.

"You and I are both born into women of fairness. Although you are clean and you don't dislike us, it does not mean that everyone in the harem does not dislike us, especially when we are favored. Have you ever thought that sometimes being favored is not a good thing?" Li Xiangjun said.

"But what's the point of living without the young master's pampering?" Yang Lianying said in confusion.

"It's very contradictory, right?" Li Xiangjun said with a wry smile.

Yang Lianying nodded.

"In the harem, there is absolutely no most favored person. If there are, there are only the current queens. Therefore, the young master has always been equal to all the sisters in the harem. In order to maintain such an equality, it is not an easy task. Do you know that this time the young master did not bring a concubine out, but brought us with you?" Li Xiangjun said.

"Balance, the emperor needs a balanced harem, so we are not in a good situation after returning to Beijing. You must be prepared to be indifferent to the young master." Li Xiangjun quietly advised Yang Lianying, so that she would not cause any trouble if she was impulsive at the time.

"I understand, thank you, Sister Xiang'er." Yang Lianying said sincerely.

"Sister, since Sister Hengbo seems to be interested in the young master, why don't we secretly match them?" Yang Lianying suddenly turned her eyes.

"Liying, this may not work. The young master is very independent. If he knew that we were involved in the affairs between him and Hengbo, he would probably be unhappy." Li Xiangjun knew Zhu Yinglong's temper and hated the most was that others plotted against him.

"What should I do? There is one more sister in the palace and one more help. Isn't it great to support each other at that time?" Yang Lianying's motive was not very simple either.

"Don't worry, your sister Hengbo's methods are much better than you." Li Xiangjun said with a smile.

Gu Hengbo's study room is now occupied by Zhu Yinglong, and it has become his place to rest and work. The Hai brothers are serving each other, while the other is running around to do business outside according to Zhu Yinglong's instructions.

"Sir, be hungry, come and have some snacks." A gust of fragrant wind blew by, Zhu Yinglong looked up, and Gu Hengbo, wearing a light blue elegant skirt, stood quietly beside him with tenderness.

"I'm a little hungry, where are Xiang'er and Lianyingren?" Zhu Yinglong smiled and deliberately moved away from Gu Hengbo's affectionate gaze.

"Does the only sister Xiangjun and Lianying have the only sister in his heart?" Gu Hengbo's pair of slender hands naturally put on Zhu Yinglong's shoulders.

"That's natural. They are all my beloved women. I naturally have to worry about them." Zhu Yinglong coughed lightly.

"Where is Mei'er?"

"What do you think?" Zhu Yinglong said with a hint.

"Mei'er doesn't know." Gu Hengbo giggled. Seeing that Zhu Yinglong did not react too aggressively, he enjoyed her service very much. The force on his hands became heavier and his body tighter.

"Sir, are you comfortable?"

"Comfortable."

"Will you say okay if Mei'er serves you like this every day?"

"No, let Meier, you, a delicate beauty, serve me alone, how can I face your admirers?"

"Does sir look down on Mei'er's background?"

"No, in my eyes, no matter how poor, rich and noble it is the same!"

"Mei'er wants to be a sir."

"Mei'er, I understand your thoughts, and never a woman has ever told me like this. It is logical that a woman like you, who is both talented and beautiful, should be my honor, but I'm afraid I can't accept you." Zhu Yinglong said, "Why didn't he know Gu Hengbo's affection? He was still considering how to deal with Li and Yang's affairs after returning to Beijing. Plus Gu Hengbo, this is a southern tour of the country, or a beautiful woman hunting in the country!

"But, sir, from your eyes, Mei'er can tell that you like Mei'er. If it weren't for this, you wouldn't have let Mei'er be so presumptuous just now." Gu Hengbo said, her actions just now were very bold. If other men had already thought she was a woman with aphrodisiac.

"Yes, Mei'er, I like your talent very much and know your affection. It's not worth staying by my side. You should have a happier future. Your stage is here to give birth to you and raise you." Zhu Yinglong and Gu Hengbo have been together for three days and have already learned about Gu Hengbo's character and courage that is not afraid of gossip. Naturally, they don't think much about her doing this almost seducing action.

"Why, will Mei'er not be happy after following Mr. Mei'er? Besides, Mei'er is just a weak woman who is talented in the end. It is difficult to do anything in this man's world. In people's eyes, I am just a brothel actor." Gu Hengbo asked boldly.

"Mei'er, as soon as you enter the palace gate, you should understand the truth." Zhu Yinglong sighed. He understood Gu Hengbo's thoughts and also knew the hardships of a young and beautiful woman living in this turbid world. This is not the era when he could shout "feminism".

"But Mei'er has fallen in love with her husband, and everything about her husband." Gu Heng said emotionally.

"Mei'er, follow me. Maybe you will be very glorious now, but soon you will find that this is not the life you want. So, Mei'er, you should look for your happiness. Don't waste time on me." Zhu Yinglong said.

"No, I, Gu Meier, fall in love with someone, and will never love other men!" Gu Hengbo said firmly, "If sir, Meier will become a monk, and will stay with a lonely lamp for the rest of her life, and will live in a nunnery."

"Mei'er, why are you doing this?" Zhu Yinglong sighed.

"Sir, since you can accept Sister Xiangjun and Sister Lianying, why can't you accept Mei'er?" Gu Hengbo said with tears in his eyes.

Faced with Gu Hengbo's questioning, Zhu Yinglong could only say: "They are just one other!"

"Sir can accept them, why can't I? As long as you can keep Mei'er by your side, Mei'er can wait until the day when Mr. accepts Mei'er!" Gu Hengbo said stubbornly.

"Mei'er, we have only known each other for three days, and you have to hand over your life to a stranger. Don't you think this is a bit hasty?" Zhu Yinglong said.
