There were three treasures in the northeast! Ginseng, mink fur, and Ulla grass. There were also three treasures in Shaoxing, a thousand miles away in Jiangnan!! Hua Diao, Grand Master, Zhu Xiaoxiao.
It turned out that Shaoxing people had a custom. When a daughter was born, her parents would bury the wine underground and take it out for a banquet when the daughter married. In addition, there were many waterways in Shaoxing, and the wedding was often held on a boat. On the boat, there were several jars of colorful wedding wine. The jars were carved with patterns, silk patterns, or chains, so people named this wine "flower carving". Over time, this flower carving almost became synonymous with good wine.
As for the private advisor, he was eloquent and eloquent. He could talk about a dead person alive and turn an old unjust case into a happy event. Therefore, the private advisor of Shaoxing was famous for his cunning and eloquence.
As for the last treasure of Shaoxing, Zhu Xiaoxiao.
Zhu Xiaoxiao was neither a famous Huadiao wine nor an eloquent advisor. However, she was more famous than Huadiao and more troublesome than Shaoxing advisor. Just like how Tiger, Flood Dragon, and Zhou Chu were called the "three evils", Shaoxing people compared Zhu Xiaoxiao with Huadiao and Shaoxing advisor, thus becoming the "Three Treasures of Shaoxing". It was obvious that Zhu Xiaoxiao was a scourge…No! It should be said that Zhu Xiaoxiao's reputation was great.
It was said that this Zhu Xiaoxiao was born with a beautiful face and graceful appearance. Her eyebrows were like distant mountains and her eyes were like autumn water. Her low eyebrows and faint smile were even better than Xizi's. Her singing made Zhaojun and Feiyan feel embarrassed.
Such an unprecedented beauty, if she was a gentle and demure lady from a noble family, it would not be a big deal to compare her with good wine. After all, since ancient times, good wine and beauty had always been inseparable, right?
However, Zhu Xiaoxiao was not like that. She could forget about being gentle, and the word demure had nothing to do with her. She was often naughty, mischievous, and often got into fights.
For example, at this moment, she, Lady Zhu, was leading a few followers and arguing with an extremely beautiful woman in her twenties in front of the Misty Rain House. There was also a large group of gossiping nosy people around her.
"Zhao Shishi, tell me, how much money do you need to leave Brother Wu?”Zhu Xiaoxiao placed her hands on her hips and raised her chin high as she asked.
Zhao Shishi smiled and said,""No, I can't! I will never leave Woo Lang. Woo and I are truly in love. No matter how much money you give me, I will never leave Woo Lang.”
Zhu Xiaoxiao glared at Zhao Shishi, then looked at her feet from her hair, and then back to her hair. She said in a harsh tone,""True love? Her words sounded even better than her singing! I wonder if you really love Brother Wu's money or Brother Wu's people?”
"You…"
Zhu Xiaoxiao picked up a handkerchief and fanned her nose, as if Zhao Shishi had a bad smell.
"If you love Brother Wu's money, I'll tell you, Brother Wu has been chased out by Aunt Wu. He's poor now and has to rely on my father's help to survive. Zhu Xiaoxiao dragged out the last syllable and glanced at Zhao Shishi."If you love Brother Wu…First, Brother Wu is already married. Second, he is a scholar. The Wu family is a scholarly family. And you…are just an old and aging prostitute who has lost her youth!" If he wanted to marry into the Wu family, he would have to wait until the next life!”
Zhao Shishi was so angry that her face turned pale and her body trembled. She almost couldn't speak.
"You, you…what right do you have to interfere in my affairs with Woo Lang?”
Seeing Zhao Shishi so angry that she was about to faint, Zhu Xiaoxiao was very proud. She pouted," Why? Because Aunt Wu is my neighbor for many years, because Aunt Wu is my sworn sister, because I am Zhu Xiaoxiao, I can manage this matter!”
"You!"
"What about me? Can't you outtalk me? Let me tell you, even the advisor of the yamen can't beat me, let alone a woman like you who sells her body and only knows how to seduce men with her beauty?”
Zhao Shishi stumbled and almost fell to the ground. She gritted her teeth and said,"So what if I'm a prostitute who sleeps with thousands of people? At least those men came to me on their own, unlike a little shrew like you who didn't even dare to accept me!”
Zhu Xiaoxiao didn't even think about it and slapped Zhao Shishi's face as fast as lightning." You vixen who steals other people's husbands. Who do you think I'm sticking to?"”
Zhao Shishi also wanted to return the favor." You're still a traitor. Don't tell me you're not educated?”
But what kind of person was Zhu Xiaoxiao? Her fierceness was known throughout Shaoxing. Her mouth was not forgiving, and her fists and feet were invincible in Shaoxing. Therefore, Zhao Shishi did not hit Zhu Xiaoxiao. Instead, Zhu Xiaoxiao was pressed to the ground.
"Of course I have, but I have never seen a vixen who could speak so eloquently and hurt others after losing a mouthful of teeth.”
Zhu Xiaoxiao cursed Zhao Shishi for being shameless, but her hands were not idle either. She rode on Zhao Shishi's body, left, right, up and down, back and forth, kicking, hitting, and pinching. She beat up the famous prostitute until her face was swollen, screaming, and crying. Her hair was disheveled, and her hair was messy. Even her clothes were torn apart!
Zhao Shishi couldn't beat Zhu Xiaoxiao, so she could only cry to the crowd,"Everyone in the city, who doesn't know that Magistrate Zhu has posted a notice saying that whoever is willing to marry this little shrew will be given gold, a luxurious house, fertile land, and beautiful concubines. Shishi was just telling the truth, and this Zhu Xiaoxiao had beaten this little girl into a pulp. Was there any justice in this world? Please uphold justice for me, please uphold justice for me!”
Zhu Xiaoxiao punched Zhao Shishi in the stomach, causing her to cry out in pain.
"What announcement? You're talking nonsense!"
"Ask them if there's a notice!”
Zhu Xiaoxiao raised her head and looked around fiercely. She believed that no one in Shao Xing City would dare to lie to her. After all, her father was the county magistrate, the most important official in Shao Xing. Unless they were tired of living, no one would dare to lie to her!
However, when she looked up, she found that although the onlookers did not sympathize with Zhao Shishi, they also gave Zhu Xiaoxiao a strange look, which made Zhu Xiaoxiao have a bad feeling.
That day, her father, who wished he could marry her off, would not really put his lifelong happiness on the notice and give it away, right?
Thinking of this, Zhu Xiaoxiao knocked Zhao Shishi out with a punch and said to her followers,""Tie this woman up and hand her over to Aunt Wu and Aunt Wu. I'll go and see what's going on with that notice.”
After saying that, Zhu Xiaoxiao turned around and ran towards the county office. As she turned around, she seemed to be able to hear the mocking laughter coming from behind her.
Before Zhu Xiaoxiao reached the county office, she saw a group of people gathered in front of a wall beside the county office, pointing and gossiping. When Zhu Xiaoxiao approached, the group of people seemed to have seen the plague and dispersed, leaving Zhu Xiaoxiao alone to look at the yellow paper and black words on the notice.
Groom Search Board
If there is a benevolent gentleman, no matter old, young, ugly, handsome, regardless of family background, status, farmers, workers, beggars can also be, who is willing to marry a little girl as his wife, should be given a thousand taels of gold, a luxurious house, half an acre of fertile land, a number of beautiful concubines.
He was born as a scholar. Those who are interested will take out this notice.
Shaoxing Zhu Zhen
Before she read the last word, Zhu Xiaoxiao was already furious. When she finished reading the signature of her father, Zhu Xiaoxiao almost jumped up.
What was this? It didn't matter if he wanted her to get married, but he even gave her gold, luxurious houses, beautiful concubines, and fertile land for free? Was she, Zhu Xiaoxiao, so ugly that she needed to cling to a man like this?
No way! She would never allow such a thing to happen. She would rather not get married for the rest of her life than be given away like livestock! Besides, if this kind of thing was spread, would she still be able to live? He was afraid that he would become the laughing stock of the Shaoxing people!
As she was thinking, Zhu Xiaoxiao was about to tear down the notice when a large hand suddenly reached over and tore it down before Zhu Xiaoxiao could.
Zhu Xiao Xiao was angry and annoyed, she kicked the crotch of the person behind her, and immediately heard a wail and Zhu Xiao Xiao's delicate voice scolding.
"Bastard, aren't you afraid that I'll kick your grandchild pouch?”
The unlucky man lay on the ground, groaning as he clutched his crotch. He never dreamed that Zhu Xiaoxiao was right in front of him, and she kicked his important part without even saying goodbye. He was in so much pain that he couldn't straighten his back. He asked in a trembling voice," I'm not the only one. Why…Why…"
Seeing that Zhu Xiaoxiao was about to kick him again, the man quickly dodged to the side and was so scared that he didn't dare to say anything.
Zhu Xiaoxiao roared like a little tigress,""What do you mean you're not the only one?”
The unlucky man pointed at a wall behind him and said timidly,"" There…there's something there too. There's someone tearing it…"
Zhu Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and saw that there were also a few posters on the wall behind her. To be more precise, all the walls near the county government were pasted with notices, and there were people standing in front of each notice, looking at it excitedly. Those people all had greedy expressions on their faces, as if they wanted to tear down the notice and take Zhu Xiaoxiao and the large sum of gold home.
"Ha!" Zhu Xiaoxiao shouted and punched her head as she ran. One punch at a time, and in an instant, a large group of bored men who wanted to be her husband were all knocked to the ground.
Zhu Xiaoxiao stepped on a man and shouted fiercely,""Tell me, besides you bastards, has anyone else seen the notice?”
"Yes…Yes!" the man said pitifully.”
"Who?" Zhu Xiaoxiao glared at him. Where is it?"
A group of people pointed at the gate of the county government and said,"That person has already taken off the notice and went to look for Master Zhu!"”
Hearing this, Zhu Xiaoxiao was mad with anger, but she didn't get angry. Instead, she smiled, revealing a sweet and charming smile. The group of toads were so mesmerized that their bones went soft, and they almost collapsed on the ground.
Zhu Xiaoxiao said in a sweet voice,""Is that so? He had already gone to find the old man for the announcement? Then I have to move faster. It's not good to delay the time of others 'journey.”With that, Zhu Xiaoxiao walked into the county office, which was her home.
As for behind her, of course, there was a large group of busybodies, because no matter how stupid people were, they could understand that Zhu Xiaoxiao's words "delayed the time of others 'journey" was a big story, so how could they miss it? Thus, a group of commoners who loved to watch the excitement immediately turned a solemn and solemn court sacred ground that punished evil into a chaotic and noisy market.
Zhu Xiaoxiao didn't care at all. She was furious. She couldn't figure out what was wrong with men in this world. Any random notice could betray his feelings and conscience and make him marry a woman he didn't love at all.
However, what she could not understand was whether her father had gone crazy from missing his son-in-law. He actually wanted to give away his most precious, cutest, filial, caring, and obedient daughter with just a notice?
Hah! The more her father thought like this, the more she wouldn't let him get what he wanted. She even wanted to beat up that b * stard who had eaten the guts of a bear and leopard and dared to expose the notice. She wanted to see who would dare to expose the notice in the future and say that he wanted to be her husband!
A strange smile appeared on Zhu Xiaoxiao's face. She rolled up her sleeves as she walked, ready to show off her skills.
Suddenly, a man's low recitation came from the parlor not far away.
"Tall and tall, dressed in brocade. The hands are like soft catkins, the skin is like coagulated fat, the collar is like a fish, the teeth are like a gourd rhinoceros, the head is like a moth's eyebrow. Beautiful smile beautiful ah, beautiful eyes look forward to ah, tall people Ao Ao.”
Zhu Xiaoxiao was slightly stunned. Before she could come back to her senses, she saw a tall and handsome young man about 25 or 26 years old walk out and smile at Zhu Xiaoxiao.
Seeing this man, Zhu Xiaoxiao's mouth opened wide and she couldn't speak for a long time.
This…Is this a man? How could there be such a beautiful man in the world?
His eyebrows were slightly furrowed, his eyes were bright like water, his red lips were bright, he was as calm as a pine tree, moving like a willow in spring, and when he smiled, he was like a pearl. His divine appearance was bright and beautiful, and his brilliance was like the morning glow, dazzling people.
His celestial heavens were wide, his nose was tall, and his skin was extremely fair. Perhaps it was because the weather was a little stuffy, he held a white jade fan in his hand and gently fanned himself. What shocked Zhu Xiaoxiao was that the hand holding the fan was as white as white jade. It was as if he had put on powder. It was even more beautiful and moving than a girl's.
Zhu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but touch his face. She didn't care if she would scare him by doing so. Then, she retracted her hand and sniffed it. Then, she raised her head and said without thinking,"No powder? You're not a woman? Are you a real man?"
The man was stunned at first, then burst into laughter." Good, that's great! Zhu Xiaoxiao was indeed extraordinary. She really lived up to her reputation. She really lived up to the elegant title of Shaoxing's Three Treasures! No wonder Lord Zhu wanted to put up a big notice and use strange methods to find a son-in-law!”
Zhu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened. She didn't understand why he said that. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind." You…You're the toad who wanted to eat swan meat, right?”
The man laughed again, his beautiful eyes flashing with a mischievous light." No! My name is Yuyun, not Laizi, nor Toad.”
" I don't care if you're a cloud made of jade or stone!" Zhu Xiaoxiao shouted angrily." In any case, if you dare to expose the notice, don't even think about walking out of the county office alive!" Take this!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Zhen shouted anxiously and fearfully,"Xiao Xiao, you are not allowed to be rude to Lord Yu!”
But it was too late!
Zhu Xiaoxiao's punch not only hit Yuyun's nose, but also sent Yuyun flying out and slammed into the door of the flower hall. The elegant Yuyun was hit on the spot, bleeding and fainted.
"Xiaoxiao, you're in big trouble, do you know that?”In the parlor, Zhu Zhen anxiously paced back and forth, while uneasily looking at Yu Yun, who was being treated by the doctor in the inner room, while blaming Zhu Xiao Xiao.
Zhu Xiaoxiao sat on the chair with her legs crossed, munching on melon seeds and drinking tea. She said slowly,""I know! But if father didn't write that damn notice, I wouldn't have hit people and caused trouble, so you can't blame me for this!”
Zhu Zhen was so angry that he was trembling. He pointed at Zhu Xiaoxiao and almost couldn't speak,""You…do you know who you hit?”
Zhu Xiaoxiao shrugged." I know! His name is Yuyun, isn't it? There weren't many Han people with the surname Yu, so he must be a Manchu. Not only was he a Manchu, but he was also a shameless and high-ranking official, right?”
"Xiaoxiao, don't talk nonsense!" Zhu Zhen hurriedly shouted. This is a serious crime that requires beheading!"
Zhu Xiaoxiao raised her head unwillingly." Beheading someone just because he scolded them? If I had beaten up all the boring men in Shao Xing, this head would have been chopped off 17 or 18 times!”
"Xiao Xiao, you can hit whoever you want in Shao Xing City. Anyway, everyone knows that you are my precious daughter, and no one dares to touch you. But he's different, he's…"
"What's different? Wasn't he just a stinky toad that only wanted to eat swan meat?”
"He is the only son of the Minister of Rites, Grand Scholar Yu He of the Hall of Cultural Splendor, not some stinky toad.”
"So what if he is the son of the Minister of Rites? Was the son of the Minister of Rites allowed to flirt with women in broad daylight?”Zhu Xiaoxiao said nonchalantly. She remembered that when this stinky man saw her, he actually dared to recite that poem about a " tall man " to take advantage of her. Although she was very happy that someone praised her for being beautiful, her beauty was her business. What did it have to do with him? Humph! She thought that the punch just now was too light!
"Xiaoxiao, the problem isn't with his father, but with Fifth Master!”
Zhu Xiaoxiao nibbled on a melon seed." Fifth Master? Which Fifth Master?"
"Fifth master is the fifth emperor's brother, the emperor's most beloved son, De Prince Yuqi.”
Zhu Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped munching on melon seeds and glared at her father." Father, are you talking about the 'cold-faced prince' Yuqi who buried a general alive, dismissed a county magistrate, toppled a governor, and demoted a noble consort for the sake of a servant girl named Su Panpan?”
"That's right, it's him. It's this Fifth Prince Yuqi who has the greatest hope of inheriting the throne in the future.”
Zhu Xiaoxiao shook her head and pointed to Yuyun in the inner room.""What does this toad have to do with Fifth Prince? Why did her father mention him? Could it be that he was the Fifth Prince's slave, a disciple under his banner?”
Zhu Zhen quickly rebuked,"Nonsense! How can a dignified Guanglu Temple's Shaoqing be a slave?" He was Lord Fifth's best friend. The two of them had an extraordinary relationship. They were closer than blood brothers. If one were to seriously consider it, Lord Fifth had to call him uncle!”
It turned out that Yuyun and Prince De Yuqi were of the same age. Although the two were not blood brothers, their feelings were closer than blood brothers.
Because Yuyun's eldest sister was Qianlong's beloved concubine, and her father Yuhe was also the Minister of Rites, Yuyun often went in and out of the palace gate since she was young. In addition, he was handsome and elegant, had a gentle personality, and was eloquent. Qianlong was very fond of him and insisted on making him Yuqi's study companion. From then on, the two of them studied together, practiced martial arts together, learned the government together, and worked together under the emperor's orders. Later, Yuqi was conferred the title of Prince, and Yuyun was also conferred the title of Guanglu Temple Shaoqing, responsible for the purchase of all meals in the court.
Some people said that if the 14th and 5th Prince Yureng were a shadow and a person, then the mastermind behind them was Guanglu Temple Shaoqing Yuyun.
Therefore, it was right to say that Yuyun and Yuqi were brothers. After all, they grew up together and were like brothers. It was not wrong to say that Yuyun was a disciple of Yuqi, because Yuyun was a Banner Lord under Yuqi's Yellow Banner. In addition to this, not only would Yu Qi ask Yu Yun about everything, but even the other brothers also valued Yu Yun, which was why the ministers in the court would be so afraid of Yu Yun.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Xiaoxiao did not care about Yuyun's background at all. She pouted her little mouth and snorted." Nian Gengyao is not Yongzheng's servant, so why can't I say that he is Fifth Master's servant? He was just a Guanglu Temple official! And I don't believe that the cold-faced prince will come and chop off my head because of this!”
Zhu Zhen was so angry that he blew on his beard and glared at her." You…you wretched girl, do you want to see your father get fired and investigated?”
"Am I wrong?" Zhu Xiaoxiao argued. How many people didn't rely on these princes and brothers to become governors and admirals? If father had a prince or elder brother to kowtow to and pull connections with, he would have become a magistrate or even a governor long ago. Why would he need to be a county magistrate in this damn place!”
Zhu Zhen fell onto the chair with a thud and pointed at Zhu Xiaoxiao, unable to speak for a long time.
This girl…Who spoiled this girl? How did he become so lawless and speak without restraint? Now, he even dared to offend Prince De and Guanglu Temple Shaoqing?
He jumped up and was about to slap Zhu Xiaoxiao when Yuyun's weak but clear voice came.
"Lord Zhu, don't be rash. Miss didn't mean to say that.”
Zhu Zhen was surprised and delighted. He turned around and looked at Yu Yun, who was leaning against the door and seemed very weak.”
Yuyun shook her head, her bright eyes staring straight at Zhu Xiaoxiao's pretty but crafty little face," It's okay, I'm sorry to make a fool of myself."”
"What are you talking about? This humble servant should be the one asking for forgiveness.”Zhu Zhen desperately winked at Zhu Xiaoxiao, motioning for Zhu Xiaoxiao to come over and help Yuyun, so as to atone for his sins.
How could Zhu Xiaoxiao not understand what her father was doing? However, she just sat on the chair and pretended to be blind and deaf.
Zhu Zhen squeezed his eyes, shook his head and pouted his mouth, but Zhu Xiaoxiao was indifferent. He was so angry that Zhu Zhen wanted to curse, but because Yuyun was present, he couldn't flare up.
However, Yuyun noticed Zhu Zhen's crooked eyes and mouth, and his head kept shaking." Lord Zhu, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well? Do you want to get a doctor to take a look?"
Hearing this, Zhu Zhen couldn't help but blush." It's…It's fine. Lord Yu, I'll help you to a chair to rest."”
"Thank you, Lord Zhu." Yuyun said politely. With Zhu Zhen's help, he chose a chair and sat down.
Yuyun seemed to be deliberately going against Zhu Xiaoxiao. This flower hall was very big, and there were no less than seven or eight chairs. It was not easy for him to choose a seat, so he chose to sit down on a red sandalwood chair beside Zhu Xiaoxiao.
Zhu Zhen gave her a fierce look and coughed at the same time." Xiao Xiao, pour tea for you."”
Zhu Xiao Xiao did not move, her round big eyes looked at Yu Yun, and said harshly,""We are so poor that we have to go to the pawnshop to find money to get tea. Can we afford to serve the current ministers and royal relatives who only drink 'Sanqing tea'?”
The so-called Sanqing Tea was made from plum blossoms, Buddha's hand, and pine nuts boiled in snow water. It was fragrant and sweet, and could regulate qi and stomach. It was a special high-grade tea used by Qianlong to entertain the ministers and founding fathers of the country.
Zhu Zhen was just a small county magistrate and was not qualified to drink this Sanqing Tea, but Yuyun was very qualified. Because his father was the Minister of Rites, his sister was the Imperial Consort, and he himself was the Young Official of Guanglu Temple, as well as the confidant and advisor of Prince De. How could he not have drunk Sanqing Tea before? How could he not know the sarcasm in Zhu Xiaoxiao's words?
Hearing this, Zhu Zhen was so anxious that he waved his hands wildly." Lord Yu, please don't take offense. My daughter…"
Yuyun smiled indifferently." It doesn't matter. Miss Zhu is honest and frank. She's a hero among women. How could I mind?”
Zhu Zhen smiled awkwardly and personally poured a cup of tea for Yuyun." I'm sorry for teaching my daughter without proper manners." Daren, please have some tea!"
After Yuyun took a sip of tea, Zhu Zhen asked politely,"May I ask if Milord has come to our county for business or private matters?”
Yuyun looked at Zhu Xiaoxiao and said meaningfully,""Yes, there is work, but most importantly, it is to complete a private matter.”
"Personal matters?"
"That's right." Yuyun took out a notice from her bosom and handed it to Zhu Zhen,"Lord Zhu, is what is written on this notice true?"”
Zhu Zhen had a strange expression on his face when he saw the notice." Yes, of course it's true.”
"Anyone?" While saying this, Yuyun glanced at Zhu Xiaoxiao.
Zhu Xiaoxiao naturally glared at him. Wasn't she just looking at him with her eyes? Who didn't know how to do this?
"That's right, anyone can do it." Zhu Zhen nodded vigorously.
Yuyun took a deep breath and said solemnly to Zhu Zhen and Zhu Xiaoxiao,"Since that's the case, then please follow what's written on the notice and marry your daughter to me!”# Review: hch471000 Time:102420182: 22PM #Special
