Chapter 1238 Outer Chamber (1)

The first person who knew that Yunqing and Yuxi wanted to appease Yan Wushuang was a general of rank three or above. After Hu Yi'an took Zong Siyuan and Tian Caihui through Changzhou and entered Xiangzhou, the middle and lower ranks of the soldiers also knew about it.

In this regard, many people expressed their incomprehension. She clearly has the upper hand, so why bother to soothe her!

Most of them slander in their hearts or say a few words in private, but dare not raise objections in public. After all, this is a decision made by the emperor and the queen, and it is not for them to make rash comments.

Bao Xiaoxiao was also very puzzled, so he went to Brother Rui and asked, "You actually want to recruit Yan Wushuang, don't the emperor and the queen know that this is impossible?" .

Brother Rui said: "My parents have their reasons for doing this."

"What's the point?"

Brother Rui didn't know: "This is something my parents should worry about, we just obey orders."

Bao Xiaoxiao asked very strangely: "You don't want to know?" Brother Rui is different from them. If you have any questions, you can just write to the emperor and queen and you will know the answer.

Brother Rui shook his head and said: "I don't want to know. They said it, but I don't understand. When we were at home, my mother would sometimes tell us about the court affairs. My elder brother and younger brother listened with great interest. I just listened Just fell asleep." According to his mother, he was born to be insensitive to politics.

"You fell asleep and your mother didn't punish you?" In Brother Rui's description, the empress was very strict with them.

Brother Rui laughed and said: "No punishment. I'm not an heir, and my mother doesn't force me to learn if I don't like government affairs. If you want to be like my elder brother, I really don't want to live."

Bao Xiaoxiao asked with great interest: "What's wrong with His Royal Highness?" His Royal Highness seemed very miserable.

"My eldest brother has studied Confucian classics and history with Da Confucianism since he was a child, and then learned farming, astronomy, geography, and arithmetic from his husband. After he was ten years old, he began to get in touch with government affairs. You don't know, those books are like the number of days. I got dizzy just looking at it." Thinking about how hard it is for his eldest brother to be the heir, luckily he is the second child. If he were to be the boss, it would be hard to love him just thinking about it.

Bao Xiaoxiao asked with some surprise: "His Royal Highness has learned it?"

Brother Rui said proudly: "My elder brother is smart, no matter how difficult it is, he will learn it immediately."

After finishing speaking, Brother Rui shook his head and said: "My elder brother is like my mother, very smart. I am like my father, who has no talent in reading, and only martial arts can make a living."

Bao Xiaoxiao laughed and said: "You don't have any talent? According to what you said, we all have to be thrown on the street." Brother Rui not only writes well, but also writes articles very slickly. In the army, his cultural background is considered very high.

"Mr. Du, who taught the four of us, never praised me." Brother Rui's IQ is not a problem, but his brothers are too smart, making him seem rather stupid. However, Brother Rui is open-minded, and his ambition is to be a general, not a champion. So even if the husband always beat his palm with hatred, it didn't cast a shadow on him. Brother Xuan, on the contrary, is more sensitive.

After Bao Xiaoxiao knew the identity and background of this Mr. Du, he smiled and said that he is really a good teacher and a good apprentice. With such a great Confucian as a teacher, a piece of rotten wood can be carved out. His Highness the Second Prince's cultural level is considered high in the army, but it is probably not enough for a Confucian like Mr. Du.

"Tomorrow is a holiday, do you want to go out?" Ordinary soldiers have two days off a month, and those with high ranks will have more holidays. Their grades are relatively low, and they only have three days off. When Brother Rui entered the army, he himself followed the rules of the army.

Brother Rui said: "I'll go buy some toiletries tomorrow, how about you?" Liu Yongnan in this room specially ordered Rui to have a separate room, which was the only privilege that Rui enjoyed in the army. With a separate room, it is more convenient to take a bath.

"I don't have anything to buy, but anyway, I have nothing to do, I'll go shopping with you!" Bao Xiaoxiao saved up his military salary as his wife.

the second day,

The two went to the busiest street market in Changzhou.

Brother Rui took Bao Xiaoxiao into a rouge and gouache shop. He didn't come here to buy some rouge powder, but to buy soap and other toiletries. In the whole of Changzhou, this one has the best soap and tooth powder. Of course, the price is not cheap. But Brother Rui has his own salary, and the dividends from Brother You, this amount of money is nothing to him.

When the two walked out of the shop, a soft sedan chair happened to fall on the ground. A maid in fruit green clothes walked over and raised the curtain of the sedan chair.

I saw a woman coming down from the sedan chair. The woman was wearing a light blue plain dress wrapped in a summer shirt and a white gauze dress, revealing a graceful neck and a clearly visible collarbone. The pleats of the skirt fell to the ground like snow. She wears a high bun and a set of pearls on her head. She has a slender and graceful figure, but because her face is covered with a piece of white silk, her face cannot be seen clearly. But in this way, it aroused people's curiosity even more.

Bao Xiaoxiao really wanted to see what the woman under the white silk looked like, but he just thought about it.

The woman walked past them, and the two smelled a burst of fragrance. Bao Xiaoxiao couldn't help but took a deep breath, the beauty's fragrance was really intoxicating.

Under the influence of Yuxi, Brother Rui hated this strong fragrance the most, and couldn't help frowning immediately.

When the woman walked to the door, she couldn't help but raised her waist with her hands, and then walked over.

When the woman brought the maid into the shop, Brother Rui and Bao Xiaoxiao were also ready to leave. At this moment, I heard a female customer next to me say: "What a show, I really think I am someone, but I am just a concubine who can't stand on the stage."

The female customer who was with her chuckled and said: "You are wrong, she is the concubine of the prince of the Duke's Mansion, and she is much more honorable than ordinary concubines. And looking at her just now, I am afraid she is already pregnant. Yes. I heard that Shi Ziye has no son so far, if she inherits the title after giving birth to a son, the mother is more expensive according to the son, I am afraid that the main family will have to look at her face." This is very nice, but the tone With envy and envy.

Brother Rui's expression changed, but this was the door of his shop, so he didn't question the two of them.

The two female guests were still very vigilant, and after walking a short distance, they found Brother Rui and Bao Xiaoxiao who were following them. Of course, it was also the reason why the two did not hide their whereabouts.

Before the two realized that they wanted to call out loudly, Brother Rui hurriedly said: "I want to ask you something. If you can tell me, this money is yours." After speaking, he took out two broken pieces from his sleeve Silver comes out.

The vigilance of the two female guests is still not lowered, but their expressions are much more relaxed than before: "What do you want to know?"

"It's the female guest you mentioned just now. You said she is the concubine of the prince of the Duke's Mansion? When did you take it?" As far as he knew, Feng Zhiao didn't take a concubine.

Although I don't know why this person paid attention to the woman just now, but as long as they don't ask them about themselves, everything else is easy to talk about. The older one took the money and said, "It was last September. We only knew about it because her natal family lived on the same street as us."

The younger one said: "By relying on her enchanting looks, this woman has seduced many men. I don't know what tricks she used to cling to the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion."

Brother Rui asked again: "You said she was pregnant, how did you know about it?"

The older woman imitated the way the female guest covered in white silk entered the door just now: "When she entered the door just now, she walked in with her waist supported. I used to be pregnant before, and I always did this." This is completely subconscious action, she has given birth to five children and is experienced.

Brother Rui asked the last question: "Do you know where this female guest lives?"

The two women looked hesitant.

Brother Rui took out another small silver ingot of two taels: "As long as you tell me the address of the lady guest, this silver will be yours."

Bao Xiaoxiao said from the side: "If you don't tell me, we can find out if we ask others." As long as you have the heart, you don't have to worry about finding out where this woman lives.

Two liang of silver is enough for the family to chew for three months. Thinking of this, the older woman immediately said: "She lives in Xiushui Street now, you just need to go there and inquire about it."

Now that you know the exact address, it will be much easier to find it.

Inquire, it is indeed as the two women said, the concubine of the Duke's Mansion is placed here. What annoyed Brother Rui even more was that the people here actually called this outer room Grandma Feng.

Standing in front of the house of the hostess in the outer room, Brother Rui's eyes spewed fire. An outsider dared to call herself the grandma of the British government.

Bao Xiaoxiao grabbed Brother Rui's arm and said: "The woman is pregnant now, you go in and make trouble, if something happens to the woman, it will not end well." He hesitated to tell them the secret he knew, the fact that the woman living in this house was pregnant for more than one month. It was also because the maid next to the woman couldn't hide things, and she was tricked by the neighbor with a few words. At that time, the neighbor was also curious, and never thought that he could make a fortune by taking this opportunity.

Brother Rui's heart sank slightly, he turned his head and left. But she didn't go back to the barracks, but went directly to Feng Zhiao. In the end, Feng Zhiao didn't see him, but he bumped into Feng Dajun.

"Master Guo, where's Feng Zhiao?" It's true that Brother Rui has a good temper, but he protects his weaknesses. Although Qiqi is not his own sister, she is also a member of his family.

One must know that Brother Rui used to call him Uncle Feng and Feng Zhiao brother-in-law. This time the titles were all changed, which is not normal. Feng Dajun asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

Even if he is full of anger, Feng Dajun is an elder, so it is not easy for him to write anger punishment on Feng Dajun: "Master, I have something to do with him."

Feng Dajun didn't continue to ask, but asked Feng Zhiao to be brought back.
