I’m The Vicious Cannon Fodder In The Book - Chapter 60
There are not many details on Shen Mingyun’s side, but Luo Shuyu can think of the relationship between Shen Mingyun and this man with amnesia based on what he has read in the book before. His “chivalrous heart” is no different from nosy.
Luo Shuyu was thinking who was this man? The people following the Fourth Prince and Shen Mingyun have not yet found out the origin of each other.
There are currently two speculations.
One is that amnesia is really useful, he can claim that he doesn’t remember anything, this person has no amnesia at all. Second, maybe he was really seriously injured and was rescued by Shen Mingyun and the fourth prince, but when he found out that the person around him happened to be the person he wanted to contact, he had a plan and decided to infiltrate their team. But how to stay? His injury may not be too severe to move. If he has a clear mind, he will be asked about his identity at any time. The fourth prince is not necessarily a good person, so the man chose to pretend to have amnesia after waking up.
Although the supporting characters who are somewhat related to the book are somewhat different from their previous lives, the characters related to Shen Mingyun should not be absent. Otherwise, how will the plot in this book go on? The Fourth Prince is a perfect example, not to mention, The four men who hooked up with Shen Mingyun in the book were all short of intelligence, otherwise they would not have helped Shen Mingyun and the fourth prince to ascend to the throne in the end.
This is all Luo Shuyu’s guess, but who is this person? Is it the second prince of Zhou who never appeared?
If the second prince of Zhou Kingdom was seriously injured in Daxia Kingdom, who would have done it? No one in Daxia knows his true identity, so it is possible that the people of Zhou Guo did it themselves. Zhou Guo was more chaotic than they thought, but they could let Li Mingjin operate in advance to pave the way for them in the future.
However, for now, it is still necessary to entertain the ladies who will be visiting the mansion soon.
When Luo Shuyu was in the capital, he and Li Mingjin entered the winter not long after they got married. They attended the Crown Princess’s Chrysanthemum Rewarding Banquet and the First Prince’s Concubine’s Plum Appreciation Banquet. When she was pregnant, she couldn’t help but invite her. If she was invited, someone would definitely take the opportunity to make trouble, so she didn’t do it, and then went directly north with Li Mingjin.
The first time he took the initiative to do something, Luo Shuyu was very motivated, not to cater to others, nor to follow the trend, this time he was doing it for himself, for Li Mingjin, and the banquet was very hot. Don’t let it go.
What people from the north wanted to see most was the characteristics of the capital, so he asked the cooks from the capital to prepare more delicacies and snacks from the capital, and also asked the servants to pack a small gift, which they could bring back to them after they left. For the family to enjoy, Luo Shuyu doesn’t want the ladies to remember him, but most of the people. The influence is accumulated through such little things.
Thinking about it now, that book is not without its benefits. At least he learned from it the knowledge that the system gave to Shen Mingyun, and also felt the pattern of the future world from the words in the book. Wisdom, since it can be used, don’t waste it.
Early morning on the day of the banquet.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away, so Li Mingjin, who had gone to the morning, stayed in bed for a while before getting up.
Luo Shuyu wringed the veil and asked him, “Is Your Highness staying in the mansion today?”
Li Mingjin yawned: “I went to the military camp later, and asked them to sign up for the competition two days ago. I’ll take a look later.”
Luo Shuyu has been so busy for the past two days that she almost forgot about it.
He suddenly looked at Li Mingjin: “Your Highness, you wouldn’t go up to compete with others, would you?”
Li Mingjin put on his shoes: “Relax, I’m not going, I’m going to select talents today.”
“That’s good. It’s easy to catch the cold when you sweat a lot in winter. It’s better for His Highness to practice in our house.” It’s almost there, when will we find Lin Yuan?”
Li Mingjin said: “Speaking of Lin Yuan, I sent him to investigate his background. He was adopted by an old doctor since he was a child, and he was so clever that he didn’t go to Beijing with Chen Rong because he had to support the elderly. He passed away, Chen Rong mentioned it to me before.”
Luo Shuyu: “Since he was adopted by a doctor, then Chen Rong is also the disciple of this old doctor, but I didn’t hear him say that he is skilled in medicine.”
Li Mingjin: “His body can’t protect himself, how can he see a doctor for others.”
Luo Shuyu immediately threw away the doubts, what Li Mingjin said was reasonable, Chen Rong was indeed coughing all day, and both of them were afraid that he would fall down at any time.
Now that Lin Yuan suddenly appeared, it made Luo Shuyu much more at ease. Since Lin Yuan began to take care of Chen Rong, his complexion has improved a lot, and his cough symptoms have also decreased a lot. At least the whole person looks much better.
“That’s right, His Highness went out after breakfast, right?”
“Naturally, if something happens, send someone to the military camp to find me.”
The two are still in their newly-married love period. They haven’t been together during the day for the past two days to enjoy the tranquility in the north. Instead, they are busier than when they were in the capital. What outsiders see is that Li Mingjin is extremely leisurely, and Luo Shuyu still has the heart to hold a banquet. , in fact, they are operating step by step according to their plan.
If you want to open up the situation in Gucheng, you must first familiarize yourself with the people and environment here. If you think about it further, that is the officials who are in complete control of this side, and those who are unfavorable to them must be removed, no matter which camp they are from.
After breakfast, Luo Shuyu escorted Li Mingjin out. Before Li Mingjin mounted the horse, Luo Shuyu suddenly sighed to him, “It’s okay if Your Highness is not here today.”
Li Mingjin frowned, thinking that his daughter-in-law was annoying him: “Am I here?”
Luo Shuyu smiled slightly and said, “His Royal Highness knows that not only the ladies are here today, but also their young and beautiful daughters and sons. Your Highness is a talented person. There is no one else in the backyard except me. Naturally, they don’t want to miss the opportunity to make their children grow brighter.”
Li Mingjin’s frowning brows loosened: “Yu’er is jealous.”
Luo Shuyu didn’t argue with him, he was indeed a little jealous: “His Royal Highness said yes.”
Li Mingjin put his arm around his shoulder: “You are the only one in this life, there will be no one else, don’t care about anyone.”
Luo Shuyu nodded: “Okay, I believe Your Highness, there is snow on the road, be careful on the road, and go back early, don’t drink too much alcohol.”
The wine in the north is stronger than the wine in the capital. Luo Shuyu tried a sip and felt that his throat was particularly burning, and drinking too much would hurt his stomach.
Li Mingjin: “I see, it’s windy outside, you can go back, don’t be too tired.”
Luo Shuyu: “Yes.”
Two people who see each other every day are at the door for a long time before they really separate.
It is about that both of them have to start facing different challenges and need to support themselves or encourage them.
After sending Li Mingjin out, Luo Shuyu began to let everyone prepare for the luncheon.
In the north, the sky is late and early, and only the temperature will be higher at noon, but the banquet will be set at noon, not in the afternoon.
He also brought some flower wine from the capital to the table today, and let the ladies taste it well, at least what these good wines represent, I believe smart people will understand.
Of course, he is not here at the Hongmen Banquet, but a mutual exploration banquet.
The ladies wanted to know the conduct of the third prince and concubine, and Luo Shuyu also wanted to know about their family background and relationships.
The ladies represented their families, and Luo Shuyu represented the Mansion of the Three Princes. This was a process of mutual testing.
Today, the sky is beautiful, the sun is high, and there is a little warmth. Although it is still cold, it is comfortable to look at, which symbolizes a good day.
It was cold outside, so Luo Shuyu arranged the banquet indoors. There was a relatively large hall with views of the mansion on both sides, but it was a bit cold, but Luo Shuyu had someone add a brazier in advance, and the indoor temperature was much higher than the outside. You may also sweat after sitting indoors for a long time.
Of course, he has seen in the book that the use of carbon fire in an enclosed space will be poisonous, so people leave some gaps for ventilation.
Luo Shuyu watched Qingwang in a good manner and instructed other people to arrange things neatly in the room. Just as he was about to praise him, he heard Butler Fu say that the guests were coming.
Looking at the time, it was only six quarters of the time, and someone had already come over early.
Luo Shuyu said, “Hurry up and invite me in. Just as I said before, you can receive as you please, but you can’t neglect today’s guests.”
This is his true meaning of holding a banquet, but it can’t make people feel that he is perfunctory.
In order to show his respect for these ladies, Luo Shuyu went directly to the front hall to meet people.
What surprised him was that the first person who came to the door was the wife and daughter of General Ma. Madam Ma was plump and chubby, and her voice was very loud. He heard that Madam Ma was known as the “Hyarch”. It doesn’t seem to be exaggerating, her daughter is as round as she is.
Although Mrs. Ma looked at “Hyarch”, her laughter was quite hearty.
After Mrs. Ma and her party arrived, other ladies arrived one after another.
The two of the Wei family came earlier than the other ladies, and they were not too prominent. However, the second husband Wei is quite outstanding. He is the only second wife besides Luo Shuyu.
However, all the generals’ wives would be willing to say a few words to them. I think these two should have a good reputation among the generals’ wives. The children they brought are sons.
Luo Shuyu couldn’t help but glanced at the two children, and Mrs. Wei smiled and said, “I just want the children to come and see the third prince concubine and let them learn the manner of the third prince concubine.”
Luo Shuyu smiled: “These two children are happy when they look at it, Qingwang, bring them a plate of snacks that just came out of the oven. It’s cold outside, there’s still some time to leave the table, don’t starve the children.”
Qingwang: “Yes.”
The second husband Wei was a little surprised. They didn’t expect Luo Shuyu to take special care of their children. In fact, as a son, it was rare for him to be the wife of the second child of the Wei family. The third prince and concubine of the son, he was actually a little excited today. The purpose of bringing the children here was really simple, and he wanted them to experience the demeanor that the son should have.
Indeed, as soon as the third prince and concubine made a move, he knew whether there was any. It was indeed unusual in his bearing, generous, gentle, and his gestures showed a unique charm.
Luo Shuyu is good to the two children because they are quite brave among these children, and there is no shrinking in their eyes, but it has nothing to do with their gender, presumably the Wei family has taught them well, after all, the Wei family is out The imperial concubine was their little uncle, Concubine Wei Xian.
Luo Shuyu hasn’t been surrounded by people for a while since he attended the first prince concubine’s plum appreciation banquet last time. He is used to it. Hearing them talk about the big and small interesting things in Gucheng, he adds a sentence from time to time. .
After a while, the servant reminded Luo Shuyu that the prefect’s wife was here.
Luo Shuyu was a little curious about the prefect’s wife. He and Li Mingjin were both suspicious of Zhu Taishou, but the people who went to investigate came back and reported that Zhu Taishou and his wife had a harmonious relationship. The two had two children. Although they took a concubine, But there are only two, which are very few among today’s officials.
Hearing the words of the prefect’s wife, everyone was different.
Luo Shuyu’s ears are not bad, and she heard a lady whispering to another lady next to her: “Why is she here?”
For a while, the lively atmosphere was quiet.
Li Mingjin has inquired about the prefect’s family, and Luo Shuyu also knows a thing or two about the situation of Zhu’s family. The prefect’s wife is neither snarky nor bitter. Why do people feel so strange about her arrival? Zhu Taishou is in charge of this place. Wenchen, everyone should be friendly to her.
Luo Shuyu was puzzled by this.
However, when he was puzzled, the prefect’s wife came in with a beautiful girl who could see that she was very beautiful even though her head was half bowed.
They saluted directly to Luo Shuyu, who told them to get up and sit down: “Mrs. Prefect, please take a seat.”
The atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and Mrs. Wei broke the embarrassment at this time, and everyone began to warm up again.
Luo Shuyu treats them all equally. He is new here, so he should not know the contradictions between the ladies. Of course, he doesn’t know everything in detail. It depends on the performance of the ladies on the scene.
Obviously, not only the wife of the military commander and the Wei family had a good relationship, but the wife of the civil servant also had a good relationship with them. To say she was very skilled, she didn’t seem to have any, but the wife of the prefect was treated coldly.
Why?
Luo Shuyu put down his doubts for the time being, chatted with them about interesting things in Beijing, or listened to them about the different customs between Gucheng and Beijing.
As it approached noon, Luo Shuyu specially prepared many days of banquet delicacies and brought them to the table.
The ladies and young ladies were all fascinated by the dishes on the table. Compared with the rude ones in the north, the dishes in the three princes’ manor were too delicate.
However, even though there is joy in the ladies’ eyes, it is not good to show too much in front of Luo Shuyu.
There were not only delicacies, but also songs and dances at the banquet, all of which were given out by people recently.
When everyone’s eyes could not change, Feng mama quietly walked to Luo Shuyu’s side and whispered something in his ear.
It was Chen Rong, who was recuperating in the side hospital, who asked Mother Feng to pass the message. He left the seat for the time being and went to the side hall.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a disheveled woman kneeling on the ground, next to Chen Rong, Lin Yuan, and several serious-looking mamas.
Today happened to be the day that Lin Yuan came to re-examine Chen Rong.
Luo Shuyu knew what was going on when she saw the woman on the ground, but she still couldn’t defend herself. Fortunately, Li Mingjin wasn’t in the mansion today, otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to explain why.
Luo Shuyu raised the woman’s face, and with her unforgettable ability, she recognized who she was at a glance.
It was the girl the prefect’s wife brought today.
The author has something to say: The third prince: Daughter-in-law, today I am the handsome young master, and you are the little boy who cheated with the young master behind his back!
Luo Shuyu: …
