After the apprenticeship, everyone had nearly half a month to arrange their own affairs.Shu Yichi, Mu Yunkai and He Xizhen's homes were not far from Shangjing, so they simply went home to report the good news.Others chose to send a good news letter to their families through the Dayong Express, which was set up in Taoyuan Town."
Brother Feng, are you also going to send this big package of things to your home?"
The two of them were walking on the way to Dayong Express, Zhong Qichen pointed to the big burden on Feng Shi's back, which was almost half a person tall and asked."
yes, I just bought it yesterday."
Feng Shi said and turned his head to look at Zhong Qichen, "The things in the department store and the clothes of Tianyi Pavilion are too cheap compared to the outside, and my family is generally solid, so I want my father and mother and younger brothers and sisters to also wear the clothes of Tianyi Pavilion, and use the soap and rouge of Hexiangzhai, so I went over to ask, and the little shopkeeper of Tianyi Pavilion said that the owner allowed it, so I kept a little money on my body, and spent the rest." ”Zhong Qichen was thoughtful when he heard this.After really worshipping the teacher, he realized how good it was to be a student in the academy.Not to mention that it is a great luck to be a disciple of the five gentlemen, just to say that it is in this Taoyuan Town.Each person has a beautiful house, the kind that people can live in as long as they are alive.Compared to the outside world, the things in the department store are like picking up for nothing.The clothes of Tianyi Pavilion are discounted, just looking at those cherished fabrics and exquisite embroidery, they are almost in vain.Wherever you want, you can rent a carriage and coachman for a fraction of the price.And sending letters and things through Dayong Express, as long as it does not exceed one or two silver, it is directly free.And so on and so forth.These are all privileges that belong only to the residents of Taoyuan Town.And now, he's one of them.When he arrived at the store of Dayong Express, Zhong Qichen looked at Feng Shi who was bowing his head and filling in the address, and suddenly said loudly: "Brother Feng, I want to trouble you to wait for me for a while, I will go out to buy something and come back." ”Feng Shi was stunned for a moment, then reacted and nodded, "Go quickly." ”Zhong Qichen went out and ran to the Tianyi Pavilion not far away.When he first came to Shangjing, his family gave him twenty taels of silver, but he saved money all the way, and now he only spent three taels and seventeen taels of silver.Leaving five taels for emergencies, and the remaining twelve taels, he wanted to buy something for his parents and eldest brother and sister-in-law.Maybe not as much as Feng Shi, but no matter how much, it is his heart.It's just that when he walked to Tianyi Pavilion, he didn't dare to move forward again.He still remembered the last time he came over, Chang Xun asked for advice robes, even if it was discounted, it would cost twelve taels of silver.If he has all the money, he can only buy opinion robes.Why don't you go to a department store?
Just as he turned to leave.A voice came from behind him, "Wait. ”Zhong Qichen turned around again and called "shopkeeper" stubbornly.Min Qi beckoned to him, "But Zhong Gongzi also wants to come over and buy some clothes for the family?"
”Zhong Qichen nodded stubbornly, "It's just that I'm shy in my pocket, so I still won't buy it." ”"You come with me."
Min Qi walked out of the counter and beckoned to him.Zhong Qichen pursed his lips, hesitated but followed.Behind the shop is a small yard, neatly arranged, and you can hear the sound of striking iron coming from next door.Passing by the window of one of the rooms, he heard a voice from inside, glanced over his head, and then hurried back, not squinting all the way after that.Min Qi took him to a room and opened the door, "The clothes and fabrics in here have a little flaw, they can't be hung outside for sale, can you see if it's acceptable?"
”Zhong Qichen followed in, and saw several rows of various clothes and fabrics hanging in the huge room.After looking at it for a while, he couldn't see where there was any flaw.Min Qi simply took a moon-white robe and pointed to an embroidery pattern on it, "The bamboo leaves here are embroidered with a few wrong stitches, and this kind of fabric can't be dismantled and re-embroidered, so it becomes a defective product." ”Zhong Qichen looked at the place where she pointed his finger, "I'm sorry he still didn't see it."
But I'm sure it's really a very small flaw.Amazing!"
And what's the price of the clothes here?""
One tael of silver for an adult, and two taels of silver for a child.In terms of fabric, one tael of silver and three feet of cloth can probably make two pieces of clothes for adults and five pieces of clothes for children. ”Zhong Qichen: "It's so cheap!
”Min Qi smiled, "Then do you want to buy it?"
”"I also ask the shopkeeper to help me pick out a more comfortable and wear-resistant fabric, I want to buy clothes for my parents, my eldest brother and sister-in-law, and a younger sister and a niece, and then pick six feet of fabric."
Min Qi: "Wait a minute. ”Her eyes were there, and she picked out the clothes quickly, and after a while, she got all the things Zhong Qichen wanted, "Is it okay to pick?"
”Zhong Qichen touched the smooth stone blue robe on the top, and nodded again and again, "Very good, thank you for the shopkeeper." ”Min Qi took another piece of cloth and wrapped it for him, "It's a total of eight taels of silver." ”Coming out of Tianyi Pavilion, Zhong Qichen went to the department store again.The rouge gouache for the younger sister, the soap for the whole family, the wine that the father and the eldest brother liked to drink, the sugar for the little nephew and the pastries that were easy to store, were all reluctant to be bought by the family.When he came out again with a big bag, he went out again with three taels of silver.In the end, he went to the bookstore to buy a few books on enlightenment, and spent two taels of silver.In the end, with a package that was not small compared to Feng Shi, he returned to Dayong Express.Feng Shi was also startled when he saw Zhong Qichen's package.In the past few days, he also knew that among them, Zhong Qichen's family background should be the worst.actually bought something no less than him."
Brother Zhong, how much money did you spend?""
Thirteen taels."
Feng Shi, who spent nearly thirty taels: "Remember to call me when you buy things in the future." ”The things of the two of them are not enough for one or two silver for the shipping fee, and they can leave after filling in the address.The other side.Chang Xun went to the place where the town rented a carriage."
I'm going to Kyoto.""
Three bucks."
Looking at the spacious carriage inlaid with glass windows in front of him and the tall horse pulling the cart in front, Chang Xun twitched the corner of his mouth, took the smallest piece of broken silver from his purse and handed it over, and took back a large handful of copper coins.When he arrived in Kyoto, it was still early, Chang Xun asked the coachman to park the carriage at the gate of the inner city, got out of the carriage and turned back to the coachman and said, "Can you wait for me for the night?"
”"Collect money.""
How much?""
Thirty dollars."
Chang Xun: "Why is it more expensive than the cost of a car?"
”Coachman: "You need money for food and accommodation in the capital, but you don't need money in Taoyuan Town." ”Chang Xun: "He has nothing to say.Entered the inner city.He asked a passer-by for the address of the Xian Wang's Mansion and walked all the way.When he arrived at the gate of Xianwangfu, he looked up and looked at the three words Xianwangfu written on the plaque.Just as the guards at the gate came to drive him away, he said, "I'm here to see Princess Xian." ”When the guards came to report, Chang Yuening was accompanying her son to study.The three-year-old daughter was led by a maid to pick flowers in the garden."
Chang Xun?
Let him come. ”After a while, Chang Xun was led in by the guards, looked at Chang Yuening, who was still dressed up and couldn't see the astringency between his eyebrows, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Eldest sister." ”Chang Yuening snorted and touched her son's little head, "This is your little uncle." ”Zong Yao turned his head to look at Chang Xun, and saw his mother nodding at him, got up and walked in front of Chang Xun, and gave a straight salute, "Yao'er has seen my little uncle." ”On the other side, the maid also brought Zong Yue over, and the little girl followed behind her brother and shouted cowardly: "Little uncle." ”Chang Xun's eyebrows couldn't help but soften a little, and he took out the meeting gift that had been prepared a long time ago, Zong Yao had a jade pendant, and Zong Yue had a golden longevity lock.The brother and sister thanked their little uncle, and they were arranged by their mother to go outside.There are only two sisters and brothers left in the small hall who have not seen each other for several years.Chang Yuening poured a cup of tea for Chang Xun with her own hands, "Why did you suddenly come to Shangjing?"
”"It's not sudden, I've been in Shangjing for almost half a month.""
Why did you come here?""
My husband in Shuzhou Academy wrote me a letter of recommendation, came to Shangjing to participate in the assessment of several gentlemen, and just apprenticed to the teacher yesterday.""
Apprentice?
Who did you worship as a teacher?
”"Mr.
Lu Qinfeng, Mr.
Shang Zhan, Mr.
Qi Shu'an, Mr.
Su Weijian, and Mrs.
Qin Yuan."
Every time she said a name, Chang Yuening sat upright in her originally leisurely sitting posture, and when she heard the last name, she almost jumped up directly."
You mean Mrs.
Qin Kite?"
Chang Xun nodded.Chang Yue smoothed her heart, and was a little incredulous, "You worshipped five gentlemen as teachers?"
True or false?

”Chang Xun nodded again.Chang Yuening suddenly looked at him with a look of what kind of shit luck you have gone.Chang Xun: "But when did these five gentlemen come to Shangjing, and how could they suddenly accept students?"
”Chang Xun took a sip of tea, "The gentlemen are not in Shangjing City, but in Taoyuan Town outside the city."
I don't know why students were suddenly accepted again.However, yesterday's apprenticeship, in addition to that, there are eight other people. ”Chang Yuening: "I don't think you will be able to get the five gentlemen to treat you differently."
It's a great blessing to be able to worship one of the gentlemen, and if you worship five of them at once, then study hard. ”Chang Xun nodded: "I know." ”After a pause, he asked again, "Is the eldest sister okay now?"
”"I," Chang Yuening smiled, "I'm fine now, the concubines in the house have also been dismissed, there are no messy people, I don't have to worry about food or clothing, and I have children around my knees, so I'm very comfortable." ”Chang Xun wanted to say that his previous eldest sister was not like this, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed again."
Idle King, what's wrong?""
I can't die."
Chang Xun: "Then I come to the door this time, do you want to visit?"
”Chang Yuening waved her hand: "If you want to go, you can go." ”Chang Xun finally went.After all, this person is also his brother-in-law.But when he really saw someone, he almost didn't recognize the man lying on the bed with a short temper, it was the handsome and luxurious Prince His Royal Highness he had seen at his eldest sister's wedding.The two didn't say a few words, and Chang Xun came out and saw a woman holding a child go in.He asked the grandmother who led him next to him, "Who is that woman?"
”"The concubine in the mansion has a child and was kept by His Royal Highness.She herself tried her best to leave, but His Highness was not in the habit of raising children for others. ”Chang Xun's face sank again when he heard this.The eldest sister should also be unwilling to stay in this lifeless idle palace, but her identity is destined to be unable to escape from this cage.The sisters and brothers had dinner together, Chang Xun stayed in Xianwangfu Keyuan for another night, and the next day he accompanied Chang Yuening for breakfast before leaving.He is now in Taoyuan Town, and if he is not busy with his studies, he can often come to visit his sister.Chang Yuening stood at the door and watched Chang Xun walk away step by step until he was gone, then she withdrew her gaze, covered her mouth and yawned."
Mama, you go to check why the five gentlemen who apprenticed to Ah Xun suddenly returned to Kyoto, and what is Taoyuan Town?
Tell me as soon as you find out. ”Mama bowed down."
By the way, what's going on in the palace?""
Your Majesty is still bedridden, the queen mother has been so sick recently that she can't get out of bed, and now the harem is in chaos, and His Royal Highness the prince who is in power has no intention of rectifying the harem."
Chang Yuening walked towards the inner courtyard while listening, and after listening to it, she sneered and concluded: "It's all retribution!"
”Mama silently looked around.Yes, they have reached the realm of hearing but not hearing.Palace.Zong Xu chose a remote palace not far from the Mingtai Hall as a place to work and rest.When he was about to go down, he saw Luo Sheng waiting at the door of the palace."
What?"
Luo Sheng followed Zong Xu into the hall, "Your Highness, the gentlemen of the Taoyuan Town School have accepted nine disciples this time. ”Zong Xu nodded, "This shows that there are many excellent students, a good thing." ”"But there's one person whose identity is a little special.""
Who?""
The youngest son of the king of Shuzhong, Chang Xun."
Zong Xu sat down behind the table, raised his eyes and glanced at him, and took the fold on the table, "I can be favored by Xi Xi and the five gentlemen, that Chang Xun must not have a bad character, what is there to worry about." ”Luo Sheng couldn't help but retort: "But his sister is the princess of Xian, the prince is so miserable now, will he be jealous of Your Highness because of this, if he knows Your Highness, the relationship between you and Miss Wei San, Miss Wei San is also in Taoyuan Town, what if he takes a risk to take revenge on Miss Wei San?"
”Zong Xu: "" He couldn't help but look up at Luo Sheng again, "You think too much." ”Luo Sheng felt so aggrieved, "But my subordinates feel that they have analyzed it very well, and this is indispensable for guarding against people, Your Highness!"
”"The entire Xianwang Mansion is up and down, and that idle princess is an understanding person."
After Zong Xu finished speaking, he waved his hand at him, "Okay, you can step down." ”Luo Sheng thought of the only few times he saw the idle princess, when the idle princess was still the crown princess, and the picture in his mind was the other party's flamboyant and wanton appearance.Now that the prince is paralyzed on the bed and has become an idle king, the crown princess has also become an idle princess, how can she get up wantonly.It's strange not to hate His Highness.But seeing that His Royal Highness looked unwilling to deal with him, Luo Sheng still left aggrieved.After Luo Sheng left, Wu Huan walked over with a cup of hot tea in his hand, "Your Highness, the servant feels that Luo Guard's analysis is not unreasonable. ”Zong Xu just finished reading a book, put it aside, and took a sip of tea, "Wu Huan, you saw Princess Xian more than Luo Sheng, what do you think of this person?"
”Wuhuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly recalled carefully, "Princess Xian has a straightforward temperament, extremely strong lips and tongue, and is a little arrogant, even if she is still unpretentious to His Royal Highness the Idle King, she seems to have never done anything out of bounds."
The slave still remembers that at a palace banquet, a palace maid accidentally collided with her Luanjia, and she only scolded people and never punished the palace maid.If this is replaced by those ladies in other palaces, I am afraid that if it is not beaten to death with a stick, it will not be pleased. ”After such an analysis, his face stiffened, and he bowed to Zongxu, "Your Highness can see it thoroughly." ”Man of temperament, with good intentions.This kind of person will never indiscriminately climb and bite.That's a good thing to say."
It's a pity," Zong Xu took the tea and raised his eyes to look in the direction of Taoyuan Town, "Apprenticeship ceremony, I haven't been able to go over and see it with my own eyes." ”Wu Huan didn't respond, but only moved the nearly half-human height fold in front of His Royal Highness.Zong Xu: "" When Zong Xu's idea of going out of Taoyuan Town was suppressed by Wu Huan with a large stack of folds, the second assessment in Taoyuan Town also kicked off.The second batch of ten people has been brought to Taoyuan Town.What awaits them is another unique assessment question.This time, Zhong Qichen, who never returned home and stayed in Taoyuan Town after apprenticeship, also silently became his husband's helper this time.Pit the future juniors, don't be too easy.------ digression------ today's chapter has a lot of words, so there are only two more, but the number of words has not changed, nine thousand
