The general's wife took her child on the road to exile

Chapter 223: Tomorrow we will have the "3 Cool Chapters"...

Tomorrow the people of Nanhuang will celebrate the "Three Cool Festival". On this day they will eat "glutinous mugwort dumplings" that are as green as jade. These dumplings are sweet but not greasy with a faint fragrance of mugwort, as well as smooth "tender cakes" and "silver fruit" that look like dumplings. They contain leeks, eggs and dried tofu, and are sweet and delicious. They are served with the fragrant "peach blossom porridge". Everyone is happily preparing in various houses.

The main street was crowded with people, all of whom had happy expressions on their faces. The Yun residence's steward was wearing a blue brocade robe, and he was accompanied by a dozen servants in black clothes who were carrying things.

Yun Min was looking for new things on the main street. All he saw along the way were common fruits and drinks, so he had to find some rare food for Mrs. Yun.

There were three people sitting in the teahouse opposite. They looked at the butler Yun downstairs, the shopping clerk of the Gu Mansion opposite him, and the servant of the former Prince Ling's Mansion, who were accompanying an unfamiliar old woman in brocade clothes looking for food on the street.

Gu Qingyu, who was standing with his back to the window in the teahouse, looked at the light green tea in the cup with a calm expression. He felt that the Longjing tea in his mouth did not have the same spiritual flavor as the tea that his aunt Ye Jiu gave him.

Although this Longjing tea has a sweet aftertaste, the distinct astringency in the mouth is still not very pleasant.

Gu Qingyu's androgynous beauty had been concealed by a high-level water spell, and now to everyone he looked like just an ordinary handsome face.

The second son of the former Li Taifu was sitting facing the window. He was looking at a slim young girl selling fruit on the main street. She covered her face with a white scarf. Her clear almond eyes were big and round, but her skin was dark and shiny, just like a black rose in bud.

Gu Qingyu looked at Li Zhongwen, he smiled without saying anything. Master Li looked at the mischievous Gu Qingyu, he scratched his head and said puzzledly:

"Mother didn't tell me about the engagement. Where did you hear about it?"

Gu Qingyu answered calmly:

"Brother Guan's peach blossom has blossomed. The matchmaker will come to propose marriage within three days. This young lady is a little fat, with round eyes, and she is lively and active."

Li Zhongwen was shocked!

"How is this possible? Gu Qingyu's words are like those of a charlatan. Is he lying to me?"

Zhu Ziyan, who was standing beside Master Li, squinted his eyes and looked at the woman selling fruit outside.

Zhu Ziyan always felt that the woman's eyes were very familiar. He had seen such eyes somewhere before. Such large almond-shaped eyes were rare, especially the clear and bright aura in them which was rarer still.

His eyebrows are like distant mountains, his face is as handsome as jade, and the Zhu family has always had gentle and elegant young men. Now Zhu Ziyan still has a rare trace of heroic spirit. He has learned martial arts since he was a child. Zhu Ziyan has a strong physique and is dressed in a red robe.

His black hair is half combed and half loose, and the jade crown on his head is made of the finest white jade. Zhu Ziyan is noble and domineering. If he sits at the window of the teahouse, there must be many beautiful young ladies waiting for him downstairs. His father is the former Taiwei, and Zhu Ziyan, who has been spoiled since childhood, has enjoyed all the wealth and glory.

Unfortunately, one year before Gu Yiheng was imprisoned, the Taiwei Mansion was confiscated and exiled to the Western Wilderness. The emperor was incompetent and the Fifth Prince secretly eliminated dissidents. All upright old ministers and loyal ministers were targets of the Fifth Prince's secret guards to send letters of treason.

General Zhu is a veteran of three dynasties. Such a person is a huge obstacle to the fifth prince who wants to usurp the throne.

Also exiled was Tutor Li, who was too upright and talented, and had too many disciples. The Fifth Prince overthrew him and Marshal Zhu and held a three-day banquet in his mansion.
