Chapter 25 Feng Qiuhuang(1/2)
Master Ji and Master Ji Er brought Han Zhen to the main hall of Xinhuatang. Han Zhen only sat for a while and said that when he was in Qingyuan, he was taking care of Old Lady Ji and Mrs. Ji Er. During the conversation, he also mentioned "Sister Xiaotang" several times. ()
Han Zhen explained that he came to visit Mrs. Ji as a junior.
Master Ji was very flattered, and secretly blamed Master Ji Er in his heart. Master Ji Er told him that Han Zhen lived in the Ji Mansion in Qingyuan. However, Master Ji Er did not tell him that Han Zhen was so close to them.
While complaining like this, Master Ji somehow recalled Mrs. Ji's words.
Mrs. Ji said that Mr. Ji was very cunning and ambitious, and that he was conceiving so much that he was also hiding his brother.
Thinking of this, Master Ji did not dare to neglect at all, so he said he wanted to invite Mrs. Ji.
"There is no reason for working for the old lady. Of course, I would like to visit the old lady." Han Zhen immediately waved his hand to stop him and said that he would go to Xuanhua Hall to pay homage to Mrs. Ji.
Master Ji and Master Ji Er could not stop him, so he had to send messages to Xuanhuatang while accompanying Han Zhen to Xuanhuatang.
When they arrived at Xuanhua Hall, Ji Xiaotang and others had already received the news and served Mrs. Ji and her husband. The female family members, including Mrs. Ji, Ji Xiaoyun, Ji Xiaotang and Changsheng, were all serving Mrs. Ji around and meeting Han Zhen together.
This is of course because Han Zhen specifically mentioned them.
Mrs. Ji brought her big grandmothers Yang, Ji Xiaolian and Ji Xiaoqin also came to serve Mrs. Ji and met Han Zhen.
Everyone saluted Han Zhen, but Han Zhen refused to accept the tribute from Mrs. Ji. Seeing that Mrs. Ji had bowed down, he hurriedly reached out and helped Mrs. Ji up and called him the old lady affectionately. Han Zhen also asked everyone to get up.
When everyone stood up, Han Zhen's eyes fell on Ji Xiaotang.
Ji Xiaotang was named the county lord, and later during the Chinese New Year, Han Zhen sent someone to send generous gifts. However, he did not arrive. This was the first time that the two met after he was named the county lord. Or rather, this was the first time that the two met officially after she entered Beijing.
"Sister Xiaotang is so out of the world." Han Zhen's eyes were enthusiastic.
Ji Xiaotang's heart moved slightly. He raised his eyes and swept over Han Zhen's face quickly.
If you don’t go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, Han Zhen must have something important to come to Xinhua Hall this time. But if it’s important, it’s more convenient to hit someone and send a message to you and secretly meet and discuss it.
Han Zhen came a little arrogant. What was his idea?
Ji Xiaotang's thoughts were very fast, and what surprised her and everyone present was that Han Zhen did not sit down, but walked straight towards Ji Xiaotang. He smiled and his eyes were fixed on Ji Xiaotang's face, as if he could not hear what Master Ji and Master Ji Er were saying next to him.
Ji Xiaotang suddenly had some bad premonition.
Han Zhen walked to Ji Xiaotang, stopped, and slowly raised his hand.
What made Ji Xiaotang, Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er breathed a sigh of relief was that Han Zhen's hand did not fall on Ji Xiaotang, but hung on Ji Xiaotang's head.
He compared Ji Xiaotang's head with his hands.
"Sister Xiaotang has grown taller again." Han Zhen said with a smile.
Han Zhen did not say anything outrageously, but his behavior and such words undoubtedly showed everyone the close relationship between him and Ji Xiaotang.
Master Ji, Mrs. Ji and others looked at Master Ji and Mrs. Ji Er and his eyes were already strange.∏∈,
At this time, Ji Xiaotang already knew what Han Zhen was here to do. But what was helpless was that she could not express anything yet. Because no matter what she said or did, it could only create one effect.
That is, the more you wipe it, the darker it becomes.
Han Zhen made sufficient preparations and had all planned.
Ji Xiaotang's eyes changed slightly when he looked at Han Zhen, and Han Zhen could see that. Ji Xiaotang's eyes were obviously condemned. However, he didn't care. The curve of the corners of his mouth increased a little, and he looked very proud and happy.
Just as Ji Xiaotang was about to say something, Han Zhen bent down to her.
"Little Changsheng." Han Zhen stretched out his hand to Changsheng.
In the Qingyuan period, Han Zhen and Changsheng were already very familiar with each other. Han Zhen had embraced Changsheng, taught Changsheng to recite poems, and even told stories to Changsheng.
Changsheng still remembers Han Zhen, and he has a very good impression of Han Zhen.
"Prince An...brother." Changsheng raised his chubby face and screamed in a slight voice.
In Qingyuan, everyone taught Changsheng to call Han Zhen the prince, but Han Zhen got along with Changsheng privately and taught him to call him his brother, especially when Ji Xiaotang was present.
This brother of Prince An is the name he has learned from Changsheng.
Obviously, this title greatly pleased Han Zhen.
Han Zhen simply picked up Changsheng.
"It's taller and heavier." Han Zhen said with a smile on his chubby little butt.
Changsheng was both happy and shy because he was furious and couldn't sit steadily because he was furious and put two fat and short arms around Han Zhen's neck.
Master Ji saw it in his eyes and confirmed that Prince Jing'an and Master Ji'er's family had a close relationship.
Although Prince Jing'an did not refuse people from thousands of miles away in the capital, he had never seen who he was so close to?
"Second brother..." Master Ji's heart was a little a little sore, and a low voice came.
Master Ji Er immediately turned his head and asked Master Ji what was wrong.
Master Ji laughed twice and didn't say anything. Master Ji Er was very puzzled. Master Ji smiled again and said that he had something to say to Master Ji Er later.
Master Ji Er nodded and agreed without thinking much.
In this way, everyone greeted Han Zhen and sat down. After Han Zhen sat down, he did not let Changsheng go, but let Changsheng sit on his knees and asked him softly what poems and articles he had recited recently.
For a moment, Han Zhen was heard in the room with affectionate questions and Changsheng's angrily answer.
The atmosphere was so harmonious. It didn't look like a noble prince visiting, but it was like a family reunion.
In the end, Mrs. Ji Er hugged Changsheng from Han Zhen's knees.
Changsheng left Han Zhen's arms, stayed by Mrs. Ji for a while, then moved to Ji Xiaotang and squeezed into Ji Xiaotang's arms. The little guy was still a little excited, and his little face was flushed.
Han Zhen then started talking to everyone. He first asked Mrs. Ji how good she was, whether she was used to the first time she went to Beijing.
"This winter is particularly cold. Even I caught some cold two days ago. If it weren't for this, I'd come to my house long ago." Han Zhen said when he heard Mrs. Ji say everything was fine.
Han Zhen's face was rosy and he walked with a dragon and tiger. No one could see any discomfort in his body, but he said so himself. Everyone asked with concern.
"...It's not a big deal, it's almost gone." Han Zhen told everyone, and then he showed a faint sad look on his face. "It wasn't that the reason was that there was no one at home, and no one was taking care of him."
Han Zhen said this and his eyes swept across everyone's faces, which was quite meaningful.
"The princess has been on the fairy trip for two years. The prince is deeply in love. It should also let go of his arms and take good care of himself." Master Ji said immediately.
Han Zhen smiled but said nothing.
Master Ji is also a well-behaved person. Han Zhen said that, so he had to say a few more words, regardless of whether he wanted it or not. So Master Ji first praised Princess An for how virtuous and capable Princess An, and then praised Han Zhen for how deep love between the princess and the princess and her husband.
But the deceased is gone and cannot be saved.
"...In the huge palace, there must be someone to preside over it, and the prince also needs someone to take care of it. This is also the prince's filial piety." Master Ji tactfully suggested to Han Zhen that it was time to consider remarrying the princess.
Han Zhen nodded slightly after he arrived here. He was obviously very satisfied with Master Ji's tactfulness.
His eyes fell on Master Ji'er Ji'er.
Mr. Ji Er's sitting posture was slightly stiff. He had never spoken again since Han Zhen said that no one was taking care of him. Mrs. Ji Er naturally didn't say anything, and her expression on her face was a little nervous.
Han Zhen's smile remained unchanged, and his eyes slowly fell on Ji Xiaotang.
Ji Xiaotang looked calm and was pinching the little fat claws of Changsheng.
He is worthy of being the person he likes. Not to mention anything else, he is just a cultivation method of calmness and calmness, and not showing his emotions, even those officials who have been immersed in the court for many years, who can be called old foxes, can not practice to the level of Ji Xiaotang.
He is bound to win Ji Xiaotang.
Han Zhen withdrew his gaze and placed his hands relaxed on the armrests of the chair.
"Mr. Ji is right. I am considering this issue seriously. A beautiful lady and gentleman are good friends. I already have a favorite candidate in my heart. I hope to get married this spring." Han Zhen smiled and his attitude was very firm.
It seemed that he had already discussed with the other party that he only needed to arrange a marriage matter.
Master Ji looked around and saw that he had already seen Han Zhen’s words and deeds in his eyes, and had bold guesses in his heart.
That was something he never expected.
If Ji Xiaotang can marry into the royal palace, it will of course be a great thing for the Ji family. But before that, Mr. Yang had already understood to tell him and Mrs. Ji that he was very satisfied with Ji Xiaotang and hoped that Ji Xiaotang could marry into the imperial palace.
Ji Xiaotang should have the same help to him when he married into the palace of the Prince or the Pavilion Master. Although the palace is more noble, Han Zhen married Ji Xiaotang, and the one who was more willing to help was Master Ji Er, who was ranked behind Master Ji Er. The difference in the palace of the Pavilion Master, this marriage was completed, whether it was Yang Ge Lao, Yang Shao and his son, he was most grateful to him.
The Yang family is most willing to help, not Master Ji Er.
Thinking of this, Master Ji did not speak, but looked at Master Ji Er and waited for Master Ji Er to take over the conversation.
Next, following Han Zhen’s topic, it’s time to ask Han Zhen what girl he is interested in.
Master Ji Er received Master Ji's gaze, but he was really hesitant to ask for that question.
Because he knew that once Han Zhen asked, he would have no room for maneuver.
Is Han Zhen a good match for Ji Xiaotang? He never thought about this question. But now he wants to think about it, he thinks that the royal palace and the imperial palace are just a gap of fifty steps and hundreds of steps.
Master Ji didn't say anything, and Master Ji Er had to speak, but he made up his mind and just said vaguely.
Han Zhen was not annoyed or anxious, and followed Master Ji Er's words and changed the topic.
"I heard that Xinhuatang has a garden. It was built by a salt merchant in the form of a model of Jiangnan Fun Garden. I have heard of it for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to watch it." Han Zhen said.
This is to go to the garden.
Master Ji and Master Ji Er both stood up and invited Han Zhen to take a walk in the garden.
Han Zhen agreed.
