Chapter 34: Meeting the Prince Again

Chen Xiuping looked at the chicken feathers all over his body, which made him turn heads on the road.

Forget it, let's go back quickly and change clothes. I'm afraid this outfit will be laughed at again when I get back.

I happened to pass by the prince's street, and I happened to meet an acquaintance. The woman in front of me was the prince's concubine, named Cainiang. She was in her thirties. When she was young, she was also the number one in the fireworks alley. Wang Dao often met with Chen Xiuping.

He boasted about how he had won the heart of Cainiang among all the talented people. After more than ten years of baptism, Cainiang no longer had the charm from Fireworks Alley.

A pair of heavy plain clothes, a wooden hairpin on his head, and a bamboo basket in his hand with some fruits in it. When he saw Chen Xiuping, he looked at Chen Xiuping's chicken feathers and said hello and asked;

"Fell into the chicken coop?"

Chen Xiuping was embarrassed to say anything and responded to the greeting with a slight smile.

"Has the young master traveled far away recently? My husband has been thinking about the young master a lot during this time."

"I went to the Su family's academy during this period and just came back."

The conversation between the two was not cordial, it was just questions and answers between ordinary acquaintances.

Just when Chen Xiuping was about to leave, Wang Dao's voice came: "Xiuping, are you avoiding me?"

Wang Dao hurried out of the door, the blame on his face was very obvious.

Looking at Wang Dao who was still holding the scroll in his hand, Chen Xiuping said with a smile: "What's the matter? Wang Gong's place is a holy place in the eyes of many students in Jianghuai. If I can get a few words of advice from Wang Gong, wouldn't I be lucky?

A few days ago, I was entrusted by my father-in-law to become a teacher at the Su family's academy."

"You're the only one who knows how to talk. Come on in. We haven't seen each other for so long. Why don't you catch up on old times?"

Chen Xiuping's flattery was still spot on, and Wang Dao burst into laughter instantly.

"Well, I'm afraid there's something wrong with me being covered in chicken feathers."

"It's okay. My older man still has some clothes left, so you can put them on first. We are both going to have a hard time today."

Although Chen Xiuping has never met the Da Lang whom Wang Dao talks about, Wang Dao often mentions that he has been fond of wielding swords and guns since he was a child. He has nothing to do with the scholarly family. When he was old, he joined the army after being recommended by Wang Dao. Now,

He is also a fifth-grade partial general.

Since Wang Dao had said this, Chen Xiuping was too embarrassed to shirk anymore, so he handed over to Old Li and asked him to go back first.

After Chen Xiuping finished taking a hot bath and put on new clothes, Mrs. Wang looked at Chen Xiuping and said with a fond tone: "Master, Mr. Chen looks like a big man when he puts on his clothes."

There is some resemblance to Lang." Chen Xiuping looked at the clothes on his body and saw that they were indeed very well-fitting. Wang Dao also nodded.

This Mrs. Wang is not Cainiang, she is Wang Dao's first wife. She has never met Chen Xiuping twice, but after meeting Chen Xiuping twice, she feels approachable. Wang Dao only has two concubines, Mrs. Wang and Cainiang, but he has three sons.

Two were born to Mrs. Wang, one was a martial artist, the other was a literary scholar, and the other was a younger son. Some time ago, he became a disciple of a great scholar, so he studied with him.

Then Wang Dao asked Chen Xiuping why he had hair all over his body, so Chen Xiuping told the story of the unfortunate incident between himself and the woman. After speaking, Wang Dao laughed again.

"You are such a confused kid. You are frivolous about that woman when you have never met her before. You are simply insulting her innocence. It is really abominable."

"My lord, what you are saying is that a dog bites Lu Dongbin and does not know a good heart,"

"You don't understand good people's hearts. Is there any allusion to what you said?"
