She actually only met this person once, but Chu Lian felt that she would never forget him. Pinshu.com
When returning to Ning, Chu Lian only offered tea to him with He Changdi in the flower hall. At that time, he was indifferent, took the tea and handed the red seal, completely business-like. Later, she was taken away by her sisters at home, and she didn't have time to listen to a few words of advice from him, and she didn't know if her biological father in her current body had a good time with her husband, He Changdi, and cultivated some affection for his son-in-law.
Chu Qi was wearing an exquisite gray brocade robe, and was always guarding in front of a house with his side.
He walked to and fro, as if in a state of great agitation.
In fact, the second gentleman of the British government is not very old, and he is only thirty-five years old now. He has no beard and wears a jade crown on his head. In addition, he is slender and looks younger than his actual age. It's six or seven years younger.
Chu Lian narrowed her almond eyes slightly, and looked up at the plaque on the house - "Pan's Mansion".
Chu Lian saw a young servant guarding the door of Pan's mansion quickly run in, and soon, two strong servants with swords followed the young servant, and the young servant pointed at Chu Qi's master and servant. refer to.
The two servants stepped in front of Chu Qizheng in three or two steps, and one of the servants pushed Chu Qizheng hard. If it weren't for being supported by Chang Shunling beside him, Chu Qizheng might have been pushed to the ground. Land, no face at all.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Qi quarreled with the servant with a ferocious face, and Chang Sui, who was with him, could see that he had a little kung fu, and was protecting Chu Qi behind him.
The two servants seemed to be impatient with Chu Qizheng's scolding, they could no longer hold back the anger on their faces, and they pinched the handle of the knife at their waists, as if they were going to strike at the next moment.
Chu Lian knocked on the wall of the carriage, and ordered the driver outside to drive the carriage more slowly. She slightly opened the curtain and looked towards the entrance of Pan's residence, but she gave no other instructions.
After all, she is not the original body of Chu Lian. When Gui Ning received a cold reception that day, he already knew that she was not liked by his father. To Chu Lian, this was nothing. The father of this body didn't take her seriously, and of course she didn't bother to interfere with it today.
Wouldn't it be fun to sit in a carriage and watch the excitement
Seeing that the third grandma ordered the curious ones to lean over and look out the window, just as she saw the plaque in front of the mansion, she whispered softly, "Pan mansion!"
Seeing Chu Lian's concentration, Wen Lan secretly gave Wen Qing a hand from the other side. Wen Qing quickly covered her mouth, blinking her big eyes apologetically.
Chu Lian is not in the mood to pay attention to why Qing Qing exclaimed, her eyes are fixed on the situation in front of Pan's house.
Just when the two servants were about to get rough, a carriage drove up from the side street in front of the Pan Mansion's gate, and the carriage stopped in front of the Pan Mansion's gate quickly. He trotted to the side of the carriage, opened the curtain of the carriage graciously, and helped a man with a gray beard in his fifties or sixties to get down.
It was a little far away, and Chu Lian couldn't hear what was said there.
The man with the gray beard was about to enter the mansion directly, but he seemed to hear Chu Qi who was being stopped by the two servants behind him and said something loudly. He suddenly turned his head and looked at Chu Qi with a shocked and dangerous gaze. Qizheng, the man with his hands behind his back, stopped in front of the mahogany gate of Pan Mansion and looked at him like that, as if he wanted to see through Chu Qizheng with his eyes.
Time seemed to slow down with the man's substantive gaze, and finally, the man waved his hands at the two servants, and Chu Qizheng's originally tense facial expression suddenly relaxed, even with a bit of complacency and nasty.
Chu Qi was pushing two strong servants who stopped him just now, as if he was still angry after doing so, he kicked him twice.
After venting, Chu Qi patted the hem of his clothes that had been messed up when he struggled just now, and with his hands behind his back, he took Chang Sui into Pan's residence with square steps.
It wasn't until Chu Qizheng's figure disappeared from the screen wall of Pan's mansion that Chu Lian put down the curtain of the car. Her expression changed again and again. The interest in visiting Shengjing just now was completely wiped out by this incident that happened to happen. clean.
Chu Lian lowered his head and thought for a moment, but he didn't dare to disturb Qing Wenlan, and sat on the side in silence.
After a while, Chu Lian raised her head, and she looked at Wenqing, "Wenqing, which official's residence in Beijing is the Pan residence just now?"
I remember that Wenqing exclaimed just now, thinking that the master of Pan's residence must have a high status in the court.
Wenqing replied truthfully: "Third Grandma, this Pan Mansion in Pingkangfang is the mansion of Elder Pan Ge."
There are five lords in the cabinet of this dynasty, and among the five lords, they are divided into primary and secondary, and this old Pan Ge is one of the people with the highest status in the cabinet today, and he is only one step away from the seat of Lord Bingbi. He is an authentic first-rank member of the dynasty!
Chu Lian didn't care about the officialdom of the Great Wu Dynasty at all, and the part she read in the original book didn't mention this powerful Lord Pan, so she naturally didn't know.
Chu Lian nodded, "I see."
Although Wen Qing was curious about who the third grandma was staring at at the middle-aged man just now, seeing that the third grandma had no desire to talk, she held back.
The group of people who accompanied her out today were all from Jing'anbo Mansion, but none of them could tell that Chu Qi was her father.
After hearing Wen Qing's answer, Chu Lian became thoughtful again.
Looking at the situation just now, Mr. Pan had no intention of seeing his father at all, and it was what his father said that made Mr. Pan change his mind suddenly.
At that time, she saw Lord Pan's eyes, which were very complicated eyes, mixed with various emotions, making people tremble uncontrollably.
In the declining British government, Chu Qizheng is not the eldest son of the family, and he is not serious about his studies. Say nothing.
After such an honorable person, he would just meet three or five of the same friends all day long, pass the time, and have very little contact with court officials, especially court officials who hold real power.
Just like before, he stood waiting in front of Pan's mansion. Mr. Pan might not even give a single glance, but surprisingly, Mr. Pan not only looked at him, but also let him enter the mansion, obviously to It looks like they are talking face to face.
Could it be that Mrs. Pan was caught by her father for some reason
Thinking of this, Chu Lian shook his head and snorted coldly.
how is this possible!
Anyone who can sit in Mr. Pan's seat is an ordinary person. Counting people's hearts, intrigues, and exquisite hearts, even if they don't have all of them, they are probably about the same.
Her father, a rich and idle person who eats, drinks and has fun all day long, would take down Mr. Pan who is in power, or grab Mr. Pan's tricks. I am afraid that children will not believe it.
Moreover, the British government and the Pan family have no contact at all, and the two basically have zero contact, so the possibility of this is even smaller.
Chu Lian frowned and recalled the plot in the original book, but still couldn't get any clues, and in the end, he had no choice but to give up.
The boat went straight to the bridge, even if her father was plotting something, he didn't care about her business, the married daughter splashed water, she is now from Jing'anbo Mansion, He Sanlang's daughter-in-law.
After comforting herself like this, Chu Lian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Chu Lian's expression softened, Wen Qing asked aloud, "Is the third grandma still shopping?"
At this time, they had already left Pingkangfang and arrived at Zhuque Avenue.
Stimulated by this incident, Chu Lian lost her initial anticipation. She originally thought about going back home, but she thought that it would be the birthday of her mother-in-law Mrs. Jing Anbo in a few days. He swallowed the words.
"Let's find a few shops and have a look. Mother's birthday is coming soon."
Although the birthday gift for the mother-in-law is not expensive, Mrs. Jing'an would not care about it, but everyone in the Mansion knows that she exchanged Princess Le Yao's golden unicorn for Concubine Wei. Another one hundred taels of gold was rewarded. If she didn't shed some blood on Mrs. Jing'an's birthday this time, people might gossip about her.
Chu Lian sighed in her heart, her sister-in-law, Mrs. Zou, was not pleasing to her eyes! How could she pass gossip for her to talk about.
No matter what she gave this time, it should not be too shabby. In the past, she could confidently say that she had no money, but recently she couldn't.
Chu Lian pouted, feeling a little annoyed in her heart, but it was just two extra money, the people around her were all red-eyed, it's really annoying, in the future when I earn money, I have to hide it and cover it up, my husband is no longer by my side Well, the silver can't be robbed by someone too!
Wen Qing lifted the curtain of the car slightly, pointed to the shops on both sides of Zhuque Avenue, and introduced them to Chu Lian one by one, "Third Grandma, the Hang Seng Medicine Cabinet, Luohe Painting and Calligraphy Workshop, and Lanjiao Tailored Clothing Shop on Zhuque Street are right for you. Oh, and the Jinshixuan over there is a well-known shop in Shengjing City, and many ladies and ladies of high families will come to visit it."
Chu Lian nodded, but didn't decide what to buy, so she planned to wander around these shops at will.
Wenqing asked the coachman to stop the carriage, and she and Wenlan helped Chu Lian down.
There were people coming and going on Suzaku Street, and men and women in brocade clothes and jade robes would pass by from time to time.
Chu Lian took a good look, but he felt a little more favorable towards the openness of the Great Wu Dynasty. This dynasty did not restrict women as strictly as the ancient Song and Ming Dynasties, but such an open era was more similar to the early Tang Dynasty.
Many daughters of everyone who go out don't even need to wear hoods, and there are even special women's training classes in the Imperial College in Shengjing City.
It is normal for the daughters of the honorable family to go shopping.
Chu Lian went into the Hang Seng medicine cabinet first, but today she went out dressed plainly for an unannounced visit, and the dresses on her body were only made of ordinary materials, plus the two young girls Wenqing Wenlan beside her, she looked like a young official who just came to the house. The newly married lady.
After entering the medicine cabinet, there was no special clerk to come up to greet her, Chu Lian didn't care, and just slowly watched in the medicine shop with Qing Wenlan.
