18. Shao Ting has a fox girl

After saying that, Zhihui asked the servant to carry the eaves away carefully and send them to the Chefang in Tongjifang.

He led Gao Yue to walk. Gao Yue could see the Zhengdao Pavilion and Ba Bridge on the east side. Soon he walked to the Zuojun Monument. There was a path here to split the beautiful forests on both sides, leading directly to Changlepo on it. The surrounding landscapes are picturesque, and the pink walls are scattered between them. I believe that they are rich people who have other careers.

After walking up about two or three hundred steps, Gao Yue saw a courtyard, a vermilion gate, a dark aconite, and a circumference of the walls. It occupied about ten acres of land. Many precious plants and flowers were planted around it. The entire courtyard was like a crescent moon, and there was a pavilion higher than the north end. It was located on the white stone of the rockery, like a flying wing, full of momentum. Zhihui also stopped here.

"Is this the case?" Gao Yue was shocked and thought to himself that her master was indeed rich.

"My husband admits his mistake. This is the other property of Cui Pushe's family, called 'Yuetang'. It is said to be comparable to Yunhuitang of the former Prime Minister Yuan Zai's family. However, Yang Wan has been on the road and has been practicing ruthlessly. The entire family of Cui Pushe doesn't dare to live here to enjoy the tour." Zhihui pursed her lips and corrected her mistake, and then pointed her hand in another direction, "The other property of the master is much smaller."

Gao Yue looked opposite Yuetang, and it turned out that a hundred steps away, there was a small (compared to Yuetang) located on the pond, surrounded by forests on three sides and facing water on one side, but it was just an ordinary gate, not the aconitum gate of officials.

It was already late at this time. Zhihui knocked on the door, and a few servants in green clothes walked out of it. The group of people held honey candles in their hands and led Gao Yue through the front yard, then through the side corridor of the double door, and to the middle hall.

Gao Yue stood in the middle hall, and Zhihui said that the husband was young, so she turned into the wing room behind the middle hall.

After Zhihui left, Gao Yue looked at the central hall. Although it was not as good as Ma Lin's mansion or as good as Cui Pushe's Yue Hall, it was also considered that the Xuan Liang Hongchang, the curtain was full of golden flowers, and the hanging plaque had the words "Hongshao Xiaoting" written on it.

"Damn, rich people are powerful. Such a large house can only be called a small pavilion." Gao Yue also thought of Zhang Tan who died of frustration and did not even have funeral expenses, Wang Tuantuan, who was struggling to survive in Pingkangfang, and Liu Deshi, who had been in Chang'an for more than ten years, and couldn't help but sigh, "The rich and noble families are indeed different."

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he was here to the door during the day today. What the old man said to him was the difference between the fate of the imperial city magpie and the Minfang magpie. "Sure enough, people live for a lifetime, and plants and trees fall in autumn, so how can they not pursue wealth and wealth? And now, although I have come through time and the door to wealth has opened, I am really distressed."

Just as he was thinking, Zhihui had already put on a light yellow blouse and a green half-sleeved walk, "Master is waiting for you in the water pavilion at the pond, please follow me."

Gao Yue became more and more confused. Since he had arrived here, he would follow Zhihui. It seemed that she and her master had no malice.

Between the water pavilion and the central hall, there is a pond full of water, and a winding bridge corridor is built on it, implicating two places.

The cold moon was rippling, Gao Yue was wearing a deep dress, stepping on the wooden boards of the bridge corridor, and saw a square pavilion floating on it in the water opposite, with stone lanterns standing on all sides, and the candlelight behind the curtains was faint.

When they were about to reach the end of the bridge, an older woman came with a lantern, claiming to be the nanny of Hongshao Pavilion. "There is nothing to do here, go and renovate the dishes." Zhihui took the lantern and said softly.

When Gao Yue arrived in front of the pavilion in the water, the breeze blew the gauze curtain. There were several mats inside and outside the curtain, and there were several silver lamps. A woman sitting inside was writing something in front of the small desk. The seven-treasure agate cup was lying on the red satin and resting on the side of the woman.

"Is this a legendary affair! Is it a fox in Zhongnan Mountain or something?" Gao Yue was surprised and excited. He wanted to be confused by the vixen when he was a child. Unexpectedly, when he grew up, he traveled time and finally realized his long-cherished wish.

Zhihui invited Gao Yue to sit down outside the gauze curtain and stand on the side.

"Good Lord, don't be fine." At this time, the woman turned around and spoke.

Gao Yue on the mat quickly rubbed backwards. Through the hazy gauze curtain, the woman inside was the one he had seen twice in Xingdaofang! It was just that there was no star-crowned feathered dress, but it was changed to the skirt of ordinary ladies, but the bun was still a simple Taoist bun, with a bun like a small horn on the top of his head, and then it was spread to his graceful waist like a long practice.

"Master, Mr. Gao is here." Zhihui replied with her eyes down, then stopped making a sound.

"Your and Lang Gong are safe. You and I will meet in Xingdaofang and Wubenfang Street. I will meet in the Zhuyuan Garden where Zhide Nuguan is the second one. At this moment, I will meet in the fourth one."

Gao Yue heard something wrong, this time he was the third one.

The woman smiled, "Actually, after the first spring exam, I saw you on the street pavilion of Zhide Nuguan, and I saw you the third time. In addition, the time in Zhuyuan was because I was a virgin and had no choice but to avoid it after seeing Gao Langjun."

It turns out that this woman has her own difficulties, no wonder or not.

But a bigger doubt came to Gao Yue's heart again. As a monk, why did this woman have her own house? It seems that she is very rich, and it is no problem to spend 500 guan to buy a seven-treasure agate cup.

When Gao Yue stared at the golden cup on the red satin, the woman also noticed, "This cup was something that was used by Yuan Zaiyuan, the Minister of the Secretariat. How did it come to the hands of the husband? Can you give me advice?"

Gao Yue then talked about the future.

After hearing this, the woman's eyes couldn't help but turn red, "It's good that this is the case. After Gongfu was confiscated, the whole family was left without a single daughter, and he was also incarnated into the palace. However, this seven-treasure agate cup was left in the dark, which was also considered an old friend."

"I don't know the master..."

People in the Tang Dynasty praised Taoist priests as masters, so Gao Yue asked this question. He really didn't know the identity of this woman: she was a woman who lived in seclusion and became a monk, and she was a charming lady. Now it seems that she still has a relationship with the ex-prime prime minister Yuan Zai?

When asked about this, the woman smiled sadly, "Gao Langjun, I was actually Yuan Zai's concubine Xue Yaoying, now I am the crown prince of the woman, named Xin Ruo."

Alas, Yuan Zai's concubine?

But?

"Yuan Gongfu had a premonition of today's situation before, so he sent me into Zhide Nu Guanli half a year in advance and transferred this small red peony pavilion to my name as a private property. His original intention was to let me spend the rest of my life safely. After all, I am just a concubine, and I am not as good as his wife, who can live and die with him..." Speaking of this, Xue Yaoying gently raised her sleeve and wiped her tears, but soon she suddenly showed a snowy expression and asked Gao Yue, "Is the man who is in the spring exam this year, or is he the next grade?"

"Next." Gao Yue replied hurriedly.

"Which game is the first?"

"Miscellaneous Poetry and Prose."
