Chapter 269 The day after the rain, there are guests
If you know, you have to do it.
Gao Yuanhong came to the palace with a gift. This was his first time to come to the palace, especially the plaque at the door only wrote the words "The Palace".
It’s not because the people living here are surnamed Wang, but the royal palaces are read together.
Looking at the plaque, his mood became better. In the sky after the rain, a rainbow would soon appear, and the sun would appear with it.
It was noon, and it was really time to cook.
Lian Moqing, who was wearing the wife given by Yan Xia, fit very well. The two of them have similar figures, so there is no difference between them.
"Mo Qing, these two are your mistresses. This one is Yan Xia and that one is Hongyun."
In terms of age, Lian Moqing is older than the two of them, but her identity at this time made her not at all unhappy. She can live here in the future. When she came in, she kept her mind and saw how big the mansion was.
"I've seen two mistresses."
"We are all about the same age. We call you Mo Qing, just call me Sister Yan and Sister Hong."
Lian Moqing couldn't accept the attitude of the two mistresses, and she was really grateful for what she could do.
"Don't express your feelings here. You can prepare your daily meals at the mansion. After the Jin Butler comes, you will discuss any questions and discuss them."
Leng Xiaobai looked at Yan Xia and asked, "Is the money at home enough?"
The court gave a lot of salary, ten silver coins a month, and even the Minister of the Honglu Temple only had five silver coins. Not to mention a dozen people, even a dozen people could afford it. Especially Leng Xiaobai's name, there was one in the Forget Revet Tower and the other in the Luoyu Pavilion.
These are all places where money is made. Some people in the court like this kind of place very much. Although the law restricts it, it cannot stop some people entering from secretly.
A sound outside the door.
"Mr. Leng took office and didn't say he would go to Honglu Temple to take a look. I, Mr. Gao, would have to come here in person?"
Gao Yuanhong placed the gift box on the table and gave a light gift in front of Leng Xiaobai.
"You dare to ask, who is yours?"
"Honglu Temple Minister Gao Yuanhong."
"I have seen Mr. Gao, but I have missed the opportunity to welcome you. I hope I will forgive you."
When Gao Yuanhong accepted the name of Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, someone had already told him, but in the next few days, he didn't expect that he would go to Honglu Temple. It was said that there was nothing big, so he let it go, but he didn't expect that the Minister of Honglu Temple came here in person this time.
"Mr. Gao came to the mansion today, I wonder what you can do to teach me?"
Leng Xiaobai sat in the master's position. Even though the person in front of him had a much higher official position than him, he did not expect to give him this position.
Gao Yuanhong didn't say anything about this, just sat on the other side.
"It has been a few days since Lord Leng took office. I saw that you have not reported it. I was worried that Lord Leng was sick or something, so I brought something to visit."
Visits are usually used among some relatives and elders, and when Gao Yuanhong said this, it was said to Leng Xiaobai, and the meaning in the words was no longer so simple.
"It made Mr. Gao worry."
The two of them talked a lot, and said it was raining outside, but they didn't know in advance, which made many people's minds messed up.
I said that people from the Honglu Temple in the morning do not need to go. Generally, only Xuanzhao or foreign envoys will enter the palace. At other times, they only need to take care of what they should do in the Honglu Temple.
It is said that not everyone can enter the Shangren Mansion. Only some people who have received the gift of Xia Tianzi can take away a few people from it in some special situation, and at most, no more than four people can be.
He sighed at Leng Xiaobai's methods. The one hour outside the ten people was to let half of the people in the court know that although they didn't know who was among the ten people, just this number was enough to shock them.
It was noon, and Gao Yuanhong had no intention of leaving at all. Leng Xiaobai did not drive him away directly to his immediate boss, but just said to Hongyun behind him.
"Madam, make a few more dishes at noon, and add two pots of good wine. I want to drink a few drinks with Gao Da."
Gao Yuanhong was even happier when he heard Leng Xiaobai's words. His face, who was over 40 years old, smiled, and it turned out to be somewhat similar to the chrysanthemums blooming outside.
"It's so good. I think I, Mr. Gao, haven't drunk for a long time. This time, I have a good time at Lord Leng's house."
Leng Xiaobai walked over from the main seat. The feeling of distance was very inconvenient to speak. It was better to whisper like this, and there was a sense of mystery.
Sitting next to Gao Yuanhong, Leng Xiaobai turned his head and looked over and said softly: "Master Gao, the former Eighth Prince who lived here was the former one. He was a arrogant and domineering person in Kyoto. I don't know why His Majesty chose to give me this yard? Could it be that the backyard was a ghost?"
Leng Xiaobai's voice was sometimes loud and sometimes small, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, as if he did this purpose. Seeing Gao Yuanhong had no reaction at all, he just turned his head and smiled at him, saying.
"Mr. Leng was joking. How could Kyoto be haunted, let alone the backyard of the royal palace. It is definitely the quietest place. As for the Eighth Prince, it was all the past. Now it is just a fugitive. Maybe he will be in a different position when he is in a row."
Gao Yuanhong said very plainly, as if he was talking about an irrelevant thing. The previous things were turbulent and rainy in the city. Everyone knows that even the ladies from the rich family who could not leave the house could hear some news of the wind blowing in, let alone Gao Yuanhong, who is the Minister of the Honglu Temple, was the Lord Gao.
"I won't be afraid of haunted or something. It's just a sword that will make my family uneasy, so it's not that good. I invited a few people back from the Shangren Mansion. I originally wanted them to do some housework within my ability, but now it seems that I have to find some thugs to come back."
Leng Xiaobai looked at Jin Furong walking in the yard. As soon as the rain stopped outside, they set off from the Shangren Mansion. It should have arrived at this time.
Yan Xia took them to the room in the backyard. Those places were originally for the servants to live in, much better than the large bed room in Shangren Mansion, where all the rooms are single.
People at that time were very superstitious and said that they could not go directly into the house that had died. Leng Xiaobai drew two talismans and turned them into talisman water and sprinkled around the house, which was also considered as the issue of peace here.
While talking, the food was ready to be delivered to the side hall.
"Sir, the seat can be started."
Lian Moqing walked over and said that when he saw Gao Yuanhong, his eyes were a little uneasy.
"Sir Gao, the food is ready, so hurry up and get in the seat."
Leng Xiaobai stood up and asked Gao Yuanhong for an invitation. Gao Master was not polite. He just looked at Lian Moqing without any trace when he stood up and walked towards the side hall.
"The big table is the table that the Eighth Prince used to eat when he was there. I was attracted by Lord Leng."
One more chapter will be added at the end of the month, and then starting from tomorrow, three chapters a day may be later, but not missing.
Chapter completed!
