Across the Market

Chapter 289

"Who is your son?" Zhu Fu was curious, how could she know someone when she first came to the capital... But after thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Is your son the third master of Duke Jing's mansion? "But then I thought, just now when Xie Yi left, he said that it was getting late today, and he will find a place for them tomorrow morning, why did he find it now?
The man in the boy's appearance had very fair skin, no beard at all, and a sharp voice.

He bent down with a smile and said: "Our young master is not the master of Duke Jing's mansion, but the young master said that he and Miss Zhu are old acquaintances. Hearing that the young lady came to the capital, the young master specially ordered the servants to come and wait for the young lady. Miss, go with the slave, otherwise, the young master will scold the slave for his bad work."

A group of people from the Zhu family stood in front of the gate of the inn. They were dressed plainly and were out of tune with this luxurious capital.

Among the passers-by, people frequently looked at Zhu's family, and they all cast curious glances.Some even stretched out their hands to point and whisper to them in private.

Zhu Fu looked around and felt that it was inappropriate to stand here at such a late hour, so he also asked bluntly: "Who is your young master, and tell me his name, otherwise, we will not follow you. "After that, he smiled at the boy, "Thank you for your kindness, young master, we have found a place to stay, and we will live in this Yunlai Inn tonight."

After finishing speaking, he bent down, picked up his younger brother Shou Geer, patted his head and asked, "Shou Geer, let's stay here tonight, okay?"

It was the first time for Brother Shou to leave Songyang County and come to this bustling Kyoto, and he felt that everything was new.

Happy in his heart, he stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his sister's neck tightly, and said obediently, "Okay."

Sister Nuan was also happy. Seeing that her younger brother was so obedient, she quickly hugged her second sister's leg and said coquettishly, "Second sister, I also listen to you. Wherever you let us live, we will live there."

Over there, Wei Sanniang came over holding Sister Kouer, tugged at the corner of Zhu Fu's clothes, and said softly: "Sister Fu, Kouer was so tired that she fell asleep, if she stood here again, the cold wind would catch a cold Yes." Looking at the boy, he smiled, and then just dragged Zhu Fu into the inn.

At this time, there were a lot of people coming to Beijing to rush for the exam, and all the major inns in the capital were already full of candidates who went to Beijing to catch the exam from all directions.Naturally, the Yunlai Inn was no exception. When Zhu Fu went in to ask, he was told that it was already full.Hearing that the restaurant was full, Zhu Fu was startled, looking at his brother who was sleepy in his arms and was about to fall asleep, he hesitated.

Immediately rushed out with big strides, but seeing that the servant was still there, he was still waiting outside with a smile on his face.

Shen Yulou also rushed over, seeing the Zhu family members still standing outside, he hurriedly said: "Ah Fu, don't look for an inn anymore, you can't find an inn at this time, come, come with me to Shen's house." Bending down to pick up Sister Nuan who was hugging Zhu Fu's leg, she looked at Wei Sanniang and Zhu Dao, "Uncle, Auntie, I will arrange a place for you."

Seeing this, the young man immediately came up to him, smiled and bent over, and said, "Uncle Shen, the master of the servant has already prepared a courtyard for Miss Zhu's family, so that they can live in it for a long time. All the masters of the house have already rested, if Uncle Shen makes arrangements at this time, it may be inappropriate."

Zhu Fu tugged at the corner of Shen Yulou's clothes, glanced at the boy again, and then moved closer to Shen Yulou, and said softly: "I saw that he has a white face and a high-pitched voice. He seems to be an eunuch in the palace. He just now It is said that I and his master are old acquaintances, and their master lives in the capital, and it is not Mr. Xie's family, so it must be that one."

"Fourth prince?" Shen Yulou raised his eyebrows.

Zhu Fu nodded and said: "If it is the fourth prince, you can rest assured, if not, I will take my parents along."

Shen Yulou lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then took Zhu Fu's hand, and said to the boy: "In that case, I would like to thank your young master first. However, it is getting late now, why don't I go with them."

"Our master said that if Uncle Shen also wants to go, please do so." After finishing speaking, he turned sideways and stepped out of the way, "All the carriages are ready, please go."

The capital is very expensive, and the houses are row upon row. Every three years, the literary examination, the five-year martial arts examination, and the culinary competition come together... So, as early as a month ago, all the major inns in the capital had closed their doors. Full house.Fortunately, the fourth prince was quick, and ordered someone to rent a yard early in the morning, which was prepared for the Zhu family.

The courtyard is just beside the imperial city, not too big, with two entrances and two exits, enough for the Zhu family to live in.

When Zhu Fu's family arrived, the fourth prince had already been waiting for a long time, and he was a little impatient.Just as she was about to leave and come back tomorrow, the little maid who was waiting outside ran in and reported: "Your Highness, here we come. Eunuch Zhang has invited someone here. He has already arrived at the door."
