General Lu is Lu Feng, the older brother of Lu Liuzhi, who was born with great strength and bravery. Relying on his strength and courage, he broke through the encirclement step by step and climbed up step by step, becoming one of Dayou's famous generals. Although he is not as high as Wen Yuanhou, he is a very troublesome figure for Wen Yuanhou.
Lu Feng has always resented Wen Yuanhou's failure to fulfill his husband's responsibilities and let his sister die with regret. As long as he is in Beijing, he will find Wen Yuanhou's troubles. Dayou has a clear distinction between civil and military, and there are very few people like Wen Yuanhou who abandon civil and martial arts, and it is easy to disagree with both sides. The military officer resented Wen Yuanhou's betrayal of the camp, and the civil servant disdained to be with half-way monks, so his position was very embarrassing.
If Wen Yuanhou hadn't been very favored by the officials, it would have been impossible to climb to where he is today. But if this is the case, Wen Yuanhou still finds it difficult to deal with himself in court. Coupled with the presence of Lu Feng as a thorn, it is even more difficult for Wen Yuanhou to move forward in the court. Lu Feng is a very rude person, he doesn't care about the etiquette and rules, and he does things according to his own preferences. Even if he was punished, it didn't hurt or itch. Lu Feng was sent to guard the southeast, which gave Wen Yuanhou a little breathing space.
Wei Yuhua suddenly realized that it didn't matter to Wen Yuanhou whether he was an adopted son or not, as long as Lu Feng didn't bother him for the child's sake.
Wei Yuhua frowned, "Then my previous plan was in vain?"
Mother Fang smiled and said: "Madam is really a fan of the authorities, so it will be the most beneficial for Madam."
Wei Yuhua wasn't stupid either, but she was too nervous and lost her mind, and Mother Fang figured it out right away. It doesn't matter if it's true or not, it's not her who adds to the trouble, but the one with the child. The Dayou law stipulates that even adopted children have the right to inherit, and they can have the same rights as parents and children when dividing property. Therefore, whether it is an adopted child or a parent-child, as long as it is included in the genealogy, it will give Yin Yuehan a headache.
"How should I treat this child? Lord Hou's attitude is ambiguous, which is really elusive."
"Madam is the mistress, as long as you are impartial, you don't need to be too enthusiastic or cold and harsh. And there is no hard-to-talk between husband and wife. The Marquis has always respected you. Although Mrs. Yin is arrogant, how has she ever really ridden herself?" On your head, this backyard is not under your control."
Wei Yuhua felt aggrieved, "But the Marquis treats me more and more coldly. Ever since I found out that I have found the whereabouts of this child, the way he looks at me makes me feel chills in my heart."
"It's natural for Master Hou to be angry at the moment. Ma'am, don't blame the old slave for talking too much. Men like women who are knowledgeable and knowledgeable. Madam, sometimes you are too rigid and refuse to let go of your figure. This makes it difficult for Master Hou to be tender with you." meaning."
Wei Yuhua's face immediately turned bitter. She was raised as a clan wife since she was a child, and what men like is called frivolity. Every time I talk to Lord Hou, I can't help but hold my tone, and sometimes I feel awkward when I whisper and act like a baby. She really couldn't do Yin Yuehan's appearance, it was too indecent.
Seeing this, Fang's mother could only sigh. Women are always very difficult, no matter what they do, they can always find faults. If Wei Yuhua had a child under his knees, he would disdain those flamboyant concubines' methods of flattering them. As long as he is a dignified wife, he will be able to sit securely in this position, and there is no need to fight against those concubines at all. However, Wei Yuhua has lost such confidence, if she still doesn't get her husband's favor, she will soon be overwhelmed by this big house.
"Master Hou hasn't come back yet?" Yin Yuehan's hair was loose, she was wearing a light green satin flat stitch butterfly love flower apron, and a tulle wide-sleeved robe outside, her graceful figure was looming. It seems to be a casual home, but it is very tempting. The person who wants to wait has never appeared, and such elaborate dressing is in vain.
Shao Yao hesitated to speak, but Yin Yuehan scolded impatiently, "Say!"
"I went back before a stick of incense, and I have already slept in the Cicada Courtyard..."
pala—
The tea utensils on the table were swept off and smashed to pieces on the ground. Yin Yuehan's plump breasts rose and fell, and her fists were clenched so tightly that she almost broke her nails. I thought Lord Hou would come to her courtyard to comfort her tonight, after all, the eldest son suddenly appeared to compete with her children, which woman would feel better, but I didn't expect Wen Yuanhou to ignore her Cicada!
The Cicada Courtyard is the courtyard of Aunt Zhou in the mansion, and Aunt Zhou has always been a special existence in this Wenyuanhou Mansion. Since she was carried into the Hou's Mansion, she can count the number of times she has been in and out of the Cicada, and Wen Yuanhou has not allowed other people to enter, including Mrs. Hou. It's like a small world there, people inside can't come out, and people outside can't go in, food, daily necessities, etc. are all purchased by the maids in the courtyard. Aunt Zhou is a fringe character, and Yin Yuehan has never looked at her seriously.
"What on earth is he trying to mean?! Didn't he flatter me before, why is he treating me like this now! Could it be that he..." Thinking of something, Yin Yuehan suddenly panicked.
Mother Li winked, all the maids in the room stepped back, and patted the back of Yin Yuehan's hand, "Don't worry, Auntie, Master Hou must be in a mess in his heart today, that's why he doesn't want to see you."
Yin Yuehan gritted her teeth, "It's all this bitch Wei Yuhua, if it wasn't for her messing around to find such a scourge, I wouldn't have such troubles."
"Don't be impatient, Auntie. If Lord Hou really values it so much, how can it take some time to let that kid enter the genealogy? It must be investigated. The law stipulates that as long as it is not included in the genealogy, even the parent-child No inheritance qualifications. Everything has not been settled yet, so why does my aunt feel resentment and annoy Lord Hou now? He is just a little monk from the countryside, how much knowledge can he have? What kind of person does Master Hou hate the most? Don't you know?"
Yin Yuehan frowned, "But looking at the kid today is not stupid, if it was... eh, that's all, it's useless to mention the things that have passed."
Madam Li narrowed her eyes, "Master Hou thinks he is stupid. You don't need to worry too much about an insignificant pawn. Madam Hou is your only enemy from the beginning to the end, Auntie."
Yin Yuehan's eyes darkened, and her hesitant heart finally found the backbone.
The undercurrents in the backyard did not interfere with the solemnity who had just entered the Hou's mansion. Wei Yuhua was thoughtful, and not only the yard where Zhuangzhong lived was tidied up, but even the clothes suitable for him were prepared. The servants are also assigned well, although their expressions are dull and they don't like to talk, but they are unambiguous in their actions.
Solemnly and comfortably took a bath, and when he came out, the food was already set on the table. The meals are very rich, with four dishes, one soup and one dessert. They are Steamed Lamb with Willow, Stir-fried Rabbit Meat, Chestnut Chicken with Mushroom, Sweet and Sour Fish, Yam and Duck Soup, and White Fungus and Lotus Seed Soup.
Solemn eyes flickered, Wen Yuanhou's words just now meant unclear, and most of them were unbelievers, why did he admit it? I'm afraid there are other intentions. It is too impatient to focus on letting him break the precept now. Hou Men is as deep as the sea, and he really doesn't lie, he can make a fuss about anything.
The maid named Cui'er said: "Madam ordered the servant to pass on the message that the eldest young master must have never eaten these in Buddhism before, and now he has returned to the vulgar to let you try something new."
Cui'er was afraid that he would still not break the precept, so she said again: "Eldest young master, there is no need to be troubled. Isn't there a saying that if wine and meat pass through the intestines, the Buddha will keep it in his heart? As long as there is a Buddha in his heart, he is not limited to these. Please don't let the young master To live up to Madam's good intentions, she did this on purpose for you to get used to it earlier."
The delicious food on the table is very tempting, which has already aroused the glutton in Zhuang Zhuang's stomach. They have already reached this point, pretending to be forceful is just torturing themselves. It's better to have wine today and get drunk today, and make plans for the future. Solemn thought clearly, and enjoyed the delicious food on the table. Going down the first floor, Zhuang Zhong couldn't help but squint his eyes, the smell of meat is still there, since he came to this world, a bird has almost faded out of his mouth. It's a pity that Dayou doesn't have chili, otherwise he would be happier.
After dinner, Tweety brought her teeth brush and good tooth powder to rinse her mouth. Toothbrushes are toothbrushes, very similar in shape to modern toothbrushes. This toothbrush has an ivory handle, one end is implanted in a ponytail, and tooth powder is dipped on it. It was the first time for Zhuang Zhong to use such a high-end toothbrush, so he couldn't help but look at it.
Tweety thought he would not be able to use it, and wanted to teach him, but was rejected solemnly. He has been using this thing for so many years, and the posture is the most standard, so he can't use others to teach him. However, using ivory as a handle is too extravagant, and it trembles in the hand.
"Tweety, where is the box I brought earlier?"
Cui'er quickly helped Zhuang Zhong find it out, and Zhuang Zhong immediately settled down, and waved his hands to order people to retreat.
The wooden box is very rough in workmanship, and it doesn't look like a valuable thing at first glance. But solemnly opened, there is something else inside, if someone sees it, they will be surprised, they have never seen a box made of such material, the box is silvery white, and its appearance is a little different from the boxes we usually see, especially the lock on the box I have never seen it.
This box is the forensic investigation box that Zhuang Zhong brought from the previous world, and it is his only connection with the previous world. Zhuang Zhong knew that it was not appropriate for such a thing to appear in this world, but he couldn't give up. In order to hide the eyes and ears, even the wooden box outside was made, and Yuanjue tied him to complete it together.
When you open the box, the first thing you see are two stainless steel trays. There are several scissors on one tray, and there are spoons, hammers, etc. on the other tray. These are often used by Zhuangzhuang in the past. Although they have been abandoned in this world, seeing them will make Zhuangzhuang feel at ease and at ease.
Even Yuanjue didn't want to give him a small knife that Yuanjue liked. Firstly, these tools meant a lot to him, and secondly, Yuanjue used the knife to cut food. Although these knives had been sterilized, Having dissected countless corpses before, Yuan felt that this thing was really inappropriate.
When Zhuang Zhong thought of Yuanjue, he felt a pain in his chest, and it was relieved by stroking the prayer beads on his wrist.
I don't know if it's because of being compressed by the time tunnel, the whole person has become a little smaller. When I came to this world, I only looked like twelve or thirteen years old. Zhuang Zhong hadn't developed yet at that time, and was petite than his peers. The place he crossed happened to be a wilderness. The wilderness in this world is very dangerous, full of ferocious beasts.
Zhuang Zhong was also injured during the shuttle, his leg was broken, and he was lying on the ground unable to walk at all. If Yuanjue hadn't stopped by to save him, he would have fed the wolves long ago. The moment Yuanjue appeared, Zhuang Zhuang felt that Yuanjue's bald hair was emitting a gentle light, which made people feel warm and safe.
Yuan Jue brought Zhuang Zhong back to the temple. The temple is remote and dilapidated. There are only two people in the temple, the host and Yuan Jue. The incense is not prosperous and there is no money for incense. Life in the temple is not easy, but Zhuangzhuang has a place to live.
The host was a kind old monk. He didn't ask where the solemnity came from or why he was dressed so weirdly, so he accepted it naturally. Zhuang Zhong was also ordained and entered Buddhism later, not because he was devoted to Buddha, but because he found it convenient. Zhuangzhuang doesn't know anything about this world. Before he understands it, he has to find a safe identity for himself, and a monk is very suitable. No need to pay taxes, no corvee, freedom of movement, and convenient hair washing.
