Chapter 131 Near the Water Tower
Come here for three things
Hearing this, Aunt Xue suddenly became anxious.
If Zhu Jinghong gives an order casually, it will either make the Xue family crazy, or make Xue Pan so busy that he can't even touch the ground.
Now we have to order three more things. Won’t the Xue family be torn apart?
“The first thing is to thank you for your contribution in suppressing Japanese invaders, and to raise food and salary. She took the lead in raising funds for the Xue family and is really loyal to the court."
It turned out that this was the case. Aunt Xue felt a little more at ease, but then she became worried again. After all, there were still two things she had not said.
In today's world, Aunt Xue has experienced a lot of things like saying a few polite words to flatter you, and then making demands after setting you up.
"The grassroots family has been favored by the emperor many times, how can we not try our best to help the court?" Aunt Xue said politely.
Zhu Jinghong nodded, and then said, "The second thing is to thank you for rescuing me that day."
"The White Lotus Sect was in rebellion that day. If it weren't for your Xue family's help to resist, , I don’t know how it will end that day."
Although the Xue family suffered a loss, they thought the court would praise it vigorously, but it turned out to be nothing more. Now I finally heard Zhu Jinghong mention it.
"This matter involves the White Lotus traitor. In order to protect your safety, I did not report the matter to the court. I hope you don't mind."
"The Thirteenth Master broke my concubine's body "Yes, it is our duty to protect your safety. As long as you, Thirteenth Master, are safe and sound, we will be satisfied."
Although she was nervous, Aunt Xue came right out of her mouth when it came to the scene. Ability has changed.
Baochai, who was on the side, thought more about it and thought that the best result was now.
Zhu Jinghong remembers favors, which are undoubtedly more cost-effective than the court's praise.
"For the third thing, I am here to thank Miss Xue for Yinglian."
Zhu Jinghong was not sure whether he came for Yinglian or not, but at least this Can be used as a reason.
After returning to Beijing in a few days, it will not be so easy for him, Zhu Jinghong, to run around again under the eyes of the old emperor.
"I really admire Miss Xue for her profound knowledge. If I had had a good teacher like her when I was a junior high school student, I would not be as knowledgeable as I am today."
So explicit The compliment made Xue Baochai extremely embarrassed. How could she, a girl from a boudoir, become a teacher and not be laughed at to death if word spread about it?
But Zhu Jinghong has a noble status, and the Xue family has to bear whatever he says and does. Even if Xue Baochai is dissatisfied, he can only hold it in.
"Bao girl, what kind of knowledge does she have? She just read a few books. Master Thirteen praised her too much."
As a girl in the boudoir and a junior, it is not convenient for Xue Baochai to speak at the moment, so she just Aunt Xue can answer for her.
“Mrs.He even praised her beauty. It's hard to say that Zhu Jinghong wasn't teasing her.
But so what, Aunt Xue could only pretend to be confused and thought it was just a compliment.
Only Baochai secretly cursed "Young disciple" but felt the slightest bit of comfort.
"In the future, Miss Xue will be selected as an attendant. I will have to get closer to the water and get the moon first, so I can ask the girl more for advice."
At this point, Zhu Jinghong looked directly at Xue Baochai and asked the girl to The head hung lower.
How come you are not referring to your own name? Are you here to thank Xue Xue's house or to see me?
You are still close to the water and the tower first gets the moon. Who is the tower, who is the moon, who has to get who.
Even if Xue Baochai fell in love with Zhu Jinghong, when he heard these blatantly flirtatious words, he really didn't care about his face and felt ashamed and annoyed in his heart.
I wanted to say, "Please respect yourself, Thirteenth Master," but Xue Baochai still held it in her heart because the difference in their identities was so big.
Seeing Baochai looking to one side with a blush on her face, her expression didn't look right, Zhu Jinghong also knew that he had gone too far.
At this moment, Aunt Xue also noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere, but so what? She could only pretend not to know.
"By the way, when you go to the capital this time, your accommodation has been arranged."
In order to ease the embarrassment, Zhu Jinghong abruptly changed the subject.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Thirteenth Master, but we have arranged this matter. We are related to the Rongguo Mansion in the capital and have already said hello to stay with us for some time."
Aunt Xue continued, " When the house in Beijing is tidied up, we can move there."
"That's it." Zhu Jinghong's expression was calm. This result was expected.
Next, Zhu Jinghong chatted with Aunt Xue for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.
The whole journey from arriving at Xue's house to when he left took less than twenty minutes.
The mother and daughter are staying here. Although there are no outsiders at the scene, it is not good for him to stay alone for a long time.
After seeing Zhu Jinghong off, Aunt Xue breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at the boxes in the yard.
This is another gift from Zhu Jinghong, including top-quality silks and porcelain, as well as exquisite jewelry, as well as top-quality pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
The above items are all priceless treasures, and some are even exclusively for the royal family.
After ordering people to pack things, the Xue family's mother and daughter entered the room.
"Although this Thirteenth Master is a little rough, he is still a good person." Aunt Xue praised her sincerely.
“It’s really commendable that a member of the royal family can look up to our family and condescend to visit us.”
Seeing that Baochai didn’t answer, Aunt Xue looked at her daughter and said, “Listen to Thirteen "Bao girl, it seems that your selection as an attendant is absolutely guaranteed."
There was Zhu Jinghong's guarantee before, who knows if it was just a casual joke, but today it was finally confirmed.
"Baochai, I think the Thirteenth Master looks like him"
p>Aunt Xue wanted to say "I am interested in you", but she really couldn't say this, so when her daughter looked over, she immediately changed her mind.
"It seems to be somewhat inconsistent with the rumors"
The rumored Zhu Jinghong actually does not have a good reputation, just because he does not like reading and prefers martial arts.
Xue Baochai said angrily, "I think it's worse than the rumors say. How could he be so frivolous and come to the door and say those offensive and rude words?"
"Young man, it's just that he is missing." It's not a big deal if you are a little calm." Aunt Xue took the initiative to explain.
At this moment, a new idea came to her mind.
Just now, Zhu Jinghong looked at Baochai from time to time, but Aunt Xue saw it all.
Zhu Jinghong will be sixteen next year. After being crowned, he will have to be crowned king, and then he will have to choose a princess.
The prince's concubine is also at the top of the list of women with internal destiny, only lower than the imperial concubine and the crown princess, and is at the top among the wives with external destiny.
"Mother"
"Ah, what's the matter?" Aunt Xue woke up and turned around.
"These things are too valuable, why don't we return them?" Baochai looked worried.
That’s it for other things. Some of the jewelry with golden phoenixes and painted phoenixes are obviously out of date, and it makes people uneasy to hold them in their hands.
"This Thirteenth Master has his whole heart. If we retreat, I'm afraid he will be overly concerned."
Xue Baochai said, "It doesn't matter. I can ask Yinglian to help negotiate an agreement. I'm sure." Master Thirteen can understand our difficulties."
Aunt Xue nodded. It was not that she was reluctant to part with things. After all, she had no shortage of jewelry.
