MTL - Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World-Chapter 608
"Master, Prince Zhi is visiting, and the youngest has invited him to the flower hall." Dongfeng bowed and stood outside the door to report.
Gu Jingyun was slightly surprised, turned his head and glanced at the hourglass, visiting at this hour?
"Understood, I'll go right now." Gu Jingyun changed his coat, turned around and closed the door, instructing as he walked, "Go to the kitchen to make tea, and by the way, instruct Aunt Sun to prepare breakfast, and bring it to the main room in a while. ."
Dongfeng responded in a low voice.
Prince Zhi was standing in the flower hall looking at the paintings hanging on the wall, when he heard footsteps, he turned around and saw Gu Jingyun hurriedly turned around and saluted, "Mr. Gu."
Gu Jingyun returned the salute, "I have seen Prince Zhi."
Gu Jingyun asked him to sit down, "Is there something wrong with coming so early?"
Prince Zhi's face was embarrassed, "I was asked by the queen mother, and said that I was to be filial to my husband on behalf of the emperor."
Gu Jingyun paused, he is so old, how can he be filial to his disciples?
Prince Zhi also felt that his mother was very nonsense, but his father was on the side of the mother, so he could only go out of the palace.
Originally, he wanted to walk around the street casually until the time and come back to the Gu Mansion, and then it would be over, but the Queen Mother sent the servants around to follow him. He swears that if he dares to be disobedient, he will not be able to leave the palace without Gu Mansion. His mother could read him to death.
Prince straight is very sad, so this is the inconvenience of living in the palace, the queen mother can find him whenever she wants.
It would be great if he could come out and open the palace. Unless the Queen Mother summoned him or he entered the palace to greet him, the two mountains in the palace would definitely not be able to control him.
Gu Jingyun looked at Prince Zhi's aggrieved look, and didn't tell him that the Queen Mother asked him to follow him for a blind date.
Dongfeng brought the tea and asked in a low voice, "Master, do you want to serve rice here?"
Prince Zhi was even more embarrassed when he heard the words. It seemed that he had arrived too early, and the Gu residence had not had breakfast yet.
Gu Jingyun took a sip of tea, nodded and said, "Put it in the back room. Has Prince Zhi used breakfast? If it's useless, use some with me."
"Yes, even though I've had breakfast, I'm still a little hungry. If you don't mind, sir, the students will accompany you." Prince Zhi followed Gu Jingyun to the front room, and whispered, "Sir, you should call me Min'er. I'm a weird prince."
Gu Jingyun couldn't help but smile, "It's been so long since you've been sealed, and you're still not used to this title?"
Prince straight bowed his head.
Gu Jingyun took a seat at the table and said indifferently: "You should get used to it earlier. I heard that His Majesty said that he intends to let you go to the Ministry of Household for training. Do you want the adults of the Ministry of Household to call you Min'er?"
"How can they compare with Mr.? You have taught me for many years. Although we do not have the name of master and apprentice, we have the reality of master and apprentice." Prince Zhi pursed his lips, rolled his eyes, and pleaded in a low voice: "Sir, I Can I ask you one thing?"
Gu Jingyun lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, "I am a fourth-rank Hanlin, you are a prince, what can I do for you?"
"But you're still Taifu, and the royal brother will think about what you say." The straight prince looked at Gu Jingyun, and Gu Jingyun lowered his eyes to drink tea.
Prince Zhi looked at him more and more pitifully, but Gu Jingyun was unmoved. Except for Baolu and An An, it was useless for anyone to look at him like that.
Prince Zhi really wanted to pull the third brother out and beat him up. Who said that Mr. Gu has become soft and easy to talk since he had a daughter?
He still felt so hard-hearted.
Dongfeng and Nanfeng came up with the breakfast, and when Prince Zhi saw that Mr. Gu still had no intention of softening his promise, he was discouraged and took the initiative to say: "It's not a big deal, I just want Mr. The experience was changed to the Ministry of War. I, you know, my arithmetic has not been very good, and I have always had a headache about taxation, money and food, and then I am not only a waste of me, but also a waste of the time of all the adults in the Ministry of Household. "
"You also need to learn about money and grain mobilization in the Ministry of War. Don't forget that food and grass often come first when marching and fighting. If you want to go to the Ministry of War, you must first learn the skills of the Ministry of Households." Gu Jingyun picked up chopsticks, picked up a steamed bun and said, "Emperor Only you two younger brothers have few helpers, so naturally he will not put you in an inappropriate position."
Prince Zhi's eyes lit up, "You mean I will go to the Ministry of War eventually, I just go to the Ministry of Housing to study first?"
"I didn't say anything." Gu Jingyun started to have breakfast.
Prince Zhi almost jumped up. He watched Gu Jingyun foolishly for a long time, and finally picked up his chopsticks for breakfast.
Let go of the biggest concern, Prince Zhi's appetite is very good, and there are not enough small steamed buns in the small bamboo basket.
Gu Jingyun paused with his chopsticks and asked, "Didn't you have breakfast in the palace?"
"Yeah, but my mother keeps babbling in my ear, I just want to get out of the palace quickly, where can I still have breakfast. Sir, the steamed buns in your house are really delicious, soft and firm, better than those made in the palace. fine."
Gu Jingyun saw that there were only two small steamed buns in the small bamboo basket, and each of their steamed buns was only three fingers in size, so they were not eaten at all.
Seeing that Prince Zhi was about to stretch out his hand, he said quietly: "The Empress Dowager did not ask you to come to my place to do your filial piety for Her Majesty."
"I know, you're not a few years older than me, and you have to wait at least forty years to do your filial piety, so sir, what did the queen mother ask me to do here?"
"Blind Date!"
Prince Zhi gave a meal, his appetite was greatly reduced, and he stopped eating. He put down his chopsticks and said helplessly: "How come there is a girl here to give me a blind date, sir?"
Gu Jingyun picked up the steamed bun in the small bamboo basket with satisfaction, ate it slowly, and replied briefly, "She is my wife's student, but she is also a gentleman of Qingxi Academy now."
"Hey, she teaches at Qingxi Academy?" Prince Zhi finally got some interest.
Gu Jingyun nodded slightly, "Yes."
He thought about Baolu's evaluation of her and said, "Her history is very good."
Prince Zhi thought thoughtfully, "Does the queen mother know this?"
"nature."
Prince Zhi rolled his eyes, "Could it be that the father and the queen would allow her to continue teaching at Qingxi Academy after marrying me?"
"The Queen Mother said that she will not interfere with the decision of the couple."
Prince Zhi touched his chin and said in a low voice, "Then my princess is almost the same as my wife?"
Gu Jingyun narrowed his eyes and looked at him.
Prince Zhi shuddered and smiled at him: "Since it was ordered by the queen mother, then I will go and see you."
Seeing that the gentleman's face paled, Prince Zhi tried his best to swallow the words that came to his lips, and did not dare to ask the girl if she could do martial arts.
When Li Baolu appeared holding An An, the sun had already popped out of Lao Gao, and a group of people came out of the alley to listen to the excitement of Sheng Street.
The Dragon Boat Festival is not over yet.
"Today their classmates are having a picnic at Jinhai Lake, so we also go to Jinhai Lake. I will bring Zheng Dan over to meet Prince Zhi." Li Baolu poked Gu Jingyun and asked, "You and Prince Zhi. Did you say we're going on a blind date this time?"
Gu Jingyun hugged An An so that she would not fall out of the car window, he heard the words and nodded, "I said it."
"It's rare that he didn't run." Li Baolu couldn't help but muttered. Last year was the peak of the straight prince's blind date. The queen mother called the wife every few minutes and asked to bring girls of the right age into the palace to see each other.
But the straight prince didn't like any of them, and even rejected them very much. As long as a girl entered the palace, he would try to run outside the palace.
This made the Queen Mother even more worried. She felt that her son seemed to be afraid of getting along with girls, and she was worried that it might have stimulated the child when he fought with the first four princes in his early years.
Otherwise, why don't you think about getting married at this time?
Li Baolu thought he knew he was going to go on a blind date and would find a way to run away, but he did not expect that he would go to Jinhai Lake with them in a carriage.
Li Baolu glanced back through the car window, feeling a little regretful in her heart, it would be great if he ran away.
Gu Jingyun stretched out his hand and stroked his wife's cheek lightly, and said with a chuckle, "After they see it, we will rent a small boat to swim the lake. There should be a lot fewer people on Jinhai Lake today, so it is not difficult to rent a boat."
There are indeed a lot fewer people around Jinhai Lake. At first glance, it is no longer densely packed with boats and heads, but the sparkling lake and occasionally a few rippling boats on the lake.
There were also a lot fewer people on the grass by the lake. They only gathered in groups of three or five, and at a glance, most of them were young people in their teens and twenties.
Li Baolu breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that everyone has gone to Huguo Temple."
Gu Jingyun nodded, coming to Jinhai Lake on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, and going to Huguo Temple to offer incense on the second day has almost become a custom in the capital.
Prince Zhi also felt very comfortable. With the lake wind blowing, he wanted to lie down on the grass and closed his eyes to sleep.
He glanced at the lake and asked in a low voice, "Sir, where are the people?"
Gu Jingyun looked at Baolu.
Baolu squinted and looked around, and soon found Zheng Dan and the others, she said: "Let's go, let's find a place to rest first, I'll meet her there."
The students who met over there were all the students from the Yongmei class who had graduated. Yesterday, the Queen Mother mentioned it too late. She hadn't mentioned it to Zheng Dan, so she had to ask her if she would like to see Prince Zhi.
If she doesn't want to talk about everything.
The classmates in Yongmei’s class seldom meet again after graduation, because some people have already married, some are already engaged, and some are in the process of getting married, so it is inconvenient to meet.
They were just getting together on this festive season, but that's it, only twelve people can come.
Everyone looked at Zheng Dan, the only one who wasn't talking about kissing, and said enviously, "I didn't expect you to stay in the academy in the end."
Zheng Dan smiled lightly, "You can come if you want. In terms of knowledge, you are not bad."
Everyone smiled wryly, they have the knowledge, but not the courage.
"Mr. Li!" Seeing Li Baolu walking towards them, everyone hurriedly stood up to salute and said with a smile, "I'm so lucky today, I didn't expect to meet Mr. Li here."
"I saw you all the way, so I came over to say hello."
Everyone surrounded Li Baolu and talked to each other about the current situation. Li Baolu accompanied them to talk for a while, and took time to whisper to Zheng Dan, "You come with me later, I have something I want to tell you."
Zheng Dan nodded in response.
