The first sixty-five chapters turn the hand into the cloud

Liu Jin took the letter to Shuntian Prefecture, while Zhu Houzhao stayed to continue chatting with Mrs. Zhong, and tasted the tea made by Mrs. Zhong himself.

Because Mrs. Zhong was a little absent-minded about her husband and cousin, she was a little absent-minded and the brewed tea was greatly lost, but Zhu Houzhao didn't taste it.

Just as Mrs. Zhong said, the naughty child's intention was not to drink, but to come to Luyu Tea House just to pick up girls, and the one who hooked up with a husband was still a married woman. As for the taste of the tea, it was not within his thinking range. He liked the unique charm of Mrs. Zhong, and thought everything was good after falling in love.

"...Madam, don't worry. If my servant goes to Shuntian Prefecture, it won't take long to solve the problem. Just don't worry, the previous generations will definitely come back until dark!" Zhu Houzhao noticed that Mrs. Zhong was absent-minded and comforted with a confident look on her face.

Mrs. Zhong was covered with a veil on her face, covering her beautiful appearance, and knelt across from Zhu Houzhao. After listening to Zhu Houzhao's comforting words and seeing his complacent look, Mrs. Zhong felt even more puzzled. She didn't know where the confidence came from the boy in front of her?

Just at this moment, a guard downstairs hurried upstairs and soon arrived at the door of the private room.

Zhu Houzhao asked with a stern face: "What's the matter? Didn't you see this young master meeting?"

"Your Majesty... Master, Mr. Liu just came back to send a message, saying that Shuntian Mansion had agreed to release the person, and the person would be sent back later, so that the young master would relax first!" The guard said quickly.

"ah?"

Mrs. Zhong was shy about her mind. When she heard this, she looked extremely surprised. She glanced at Zhu Houzhao and couldn't help but frown.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "How is it, madam? I have already said that as long as the letter is sent, Shuntian Mansion will release it even if it is not released!"

Mrs. Zhong was skeptical about Zhu Houzhao and the guard's words, thinking: "It's not that the person was not rescued, so she deliberately sent someone back to make up a speech and deceived me, right? But what is their purpose? For the sake of face, or to cheat money from me? Or even cheat sex? No, I must be more careful!"

Although Mrs. Zhong didn't believe it from the bottom of her heart, she still stood up and saluted politely: "Thank you, Mr. Zhu, for helping you!"

Zhu Houzhao thought he had helped Mrs. Zhong a lot, so she couldn't help but feel excited. She took the opportunity to support Mrs. Zhong and was ready to touch her. However, Mrs. Zhong had been prepared for a long time. Seeing that Zhu Houzhao reached out to help her, she quickly took a step back and cleverly avoided it, which made Zhu Houzhao, who had lost the opportunity, feel embarrassed.

"Madam, please sit down...sit down and talk. After that, you and your wife should be reunited. I really hope to see this scene!" Zhu Houzhao scratched her head, like an inexplicable boy, and smiled.

Mrs. Zhong looked at Zhu Houzhao and felt a little impatient, but now the situation is unclear, she is not convenient for her to drive the passengers. However, she still has no good expression on Zhu Houzhao. She just knelt down there, as if she was thinking about things, but in fact she was just perfunctory.

After another half an hour, the sound of a carriage stopping came downstairs. Liu Jin's voice came from afar: "Young Master, young master, I have completed your entrustment and brought the person back..."

As he spoke, Liu Jin ran upstairs and appeared in front of the door of the private room. Since Liu Jin was back, everything would come to light. Mrs. Zhong hurried downstairs to see what was going on.

When she arrived at the tea shop, Mrs. Zhong saw her bruised husband and cousin, she couldn't help but cover her face and cry. However, in front of everyone, she was decent and did not make any extreme actions. Zhu Houzhao followed her downstairs and smiled and said, "It's a good thing for a family to reunite!"

As Zhu Houzhao spoke, his eyes fell on Mrs. Zhong's husband. He saw that this man was in his forties, obviously much older than Mrs. Zhong. Mrs. Zhong's cousin was only about twenty days old, and both of them were injured. It seemed that he had suffered a lot in prison and seemed very vicissitudes.

Zhu Houzhao smiled at Mrs. Zhong and said, "Madam, you don't have to worry now, right?"

The middle-aged man with a bruised face came over and said to Mrs. Zhong: "Madam, I'm back for my husband!"

"It's good to come back! It's good to come back!"

At this time, Mrs. Zhong had no doubts about Zhu Houzhao and immediately saluted respectfully, "I would like to thank Master Zhu for his kind help... It was this Master Zhu who came forward to let Shuntian Mansion release him!"

The man surnamed Zhong seemed very awe of Zhu Houzhao's ability and was very respectful to him. Zhu Houzhao looked proud and waved his hand, and seemed indifferent:

"I am just a simple task. It's not too early. I want to go upstairs and taste Mrs. Zhong's tea art... Mrs. Zhong, please!"

When Zhu Houzhao said it was not early, everyone thought he was leaving. When he heard that Zhu Houzhao was about to go upstairs to continue to taste tea, Mrs. Zhong was very surprised. At this time, the couple reunited. Logically, Zhu Houzhao should have a wink, allowing the couple to tell their relationship. But he did not intend to make the family surnamed Zhong have a better life, and they would give favors, but they thought of greater rewards.

The man surnamed Zhong said, "Madam, since Mr. Zhu invites you, please treat him well first, and don't neglect the distinguished guests! Go in and change your clothes for your husband!"

Seeing the flattering look on her husband's face, Mrs. Zhong couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Ordinary families are women in charge of the inner world, but now her husband makes her charge of the outer world. Mrs. Zhong felt a little unwilling to do so, as if her husband took the initiative to push her out and be unfaithful.

...

...

After going upstairs, Zhu Houzhao became more and more arrogant. Although she knew that Mrs. Zhong’s husband was in the backyard, she seemed to be in a daze. She reached out several times while Mrs. Zhong was making tea.

If Mrs. Zhong had not been hiding in time, her slender hands had been touched several times by Zhu Houzhao.

Mrs. Zhong can only guide the topic: "Young Master Zhu, you have helped the little woman a lot today, and the little woman has no choice but to repay her. You can often come to the tea shop to taste tea in the future. The little woman will treat her with all her heart and not receive tea supplies. But the person you offended now is the uncle of the current dynasty... You should be careful and go back and arrange it earlier..."

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "Hey, Madam is too worried. The uncle... It's easy to say. If he knew that it was me who came forward, he would only retreat. Just don't worry! The uncle will never come forward to do anything again. He will bother me again in the future. Just tell me that I will solve your troubles for you!"

Mrs. Zhong was originally kindly reminded, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little shocked. The young man in front of her was completely in a tone of not caring about anything, and she acted without restraint. Even the Shuntian Prefecture Office had to give face to her a letter. She had great doubts about Zhu Houzhao's identity.

Just at this moment, Zhang Yuan came in and said, "Young Master, it's time for you to leave and go home! If you don't go back, the door of the mansion will be closed!"

Mrs. Zhong asked curiously: "Will Mr. Zhu's mansion leave a door for you?"

Zhu Houzhao said dissatisfiedly: "Don't listen to the servants' nonsense. Of course, when will I go back to my own residence? Today, the Japanese master wants to talk to Mrs. Zhong about more about the tea ceremony. Mrs. Zhong, where are you from? Do you have any relatives at home? Who else does the husband's family have..."

He said he wanted to talk about the tea ceremony, but Zhu Houzhao kept saying three words from Mrs. Zhong himself. In this way, Mrs. Zhong’s answer was not good, nor was it good if she didn’t answer, which was very embarrassing.

Liu Jin pushed Zhang Yuan outside the private room, and Zhang Yuan protested dissatisfiedly: "Eunuch Liu, what are you doing? Don't you know the palace gate is about to close?"

Because Zhang Yuan is the regular attendant of the Eastern Palace and has a great status in the palace, he looks down on Liu Jin who has just returned to the palace and speaks in a bad tone.

Liu Jin said disdainfully: "Eunuch Zhang has been in the palace for so many years, why doesn't he even have a minimum look? Your Majesty is in a hurry now. If you go in and disturb me, isn't you causing trouble?"

"So what if the palace gate is closed? Now Your Majesty comes out with the guards. When you go back, you can't call the palace gate open, or your Majesty simply won't go back..."

"Do you think that once your Majesty left the palace, he was just coming to have a special trip to have a tea and say a few words to this Mrs. Zhong? If you don't arrange some pleasing programs for Your Majesty in the evening, wouldn't Your Majesty return in disappointment?"

Zhang Yuan was very angry and almost quarreled with Liu Jin. He didn't know that Liu Jin was mentioning him, not harming him. Now Zhang Yuan only knows one thing: his position in front of the little emperor was threatened by the old eunuch who had inexplicably returned from Jiangnan.

...

...

Zhu Houzhao stayed in the private room for more than an hour, and it was not until it was completely dark that she reluctantly left. This was the result of Mrs. Zhong's order to expel the guest.

"Madam, you are so kind. I will come over to have a tea after I look back. I hope my wife can treat her with all her heart!" Zhu Houzhao looked familiar and didn't see her at all.

After going downstairs, I saw the man surnamed Zhong waiting in the lobby before. When I saw Zhu Houzhao, the man came forward to greet him, with a smile on his face:

"Young Master Zhu, I don't know how to entertain a villain? You are here and just come to visit more in the future. The store will not collect your money. The bento will be friends in the future..."

Mrs. Zhong was so tired of Zhu Houzhao's entanglement. She didn't expect her husband to be so polite to this young man.

Mrs. Zhong glared at her husband, and the man surnamed Zhong did not pay attention to his wife's wink at all.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "It's easy to say, I'll come here often in the future. Zhong Dean, Mrs. Zhong, I'm leaving now, haha... It's a great honor to meet you today!"

Zhu Houzhao was already speechless, and the man surnamed Zhong smiled flatteringly: "What did Mr. Zhu say? I am lucky enough to know Mr. Zhu in my three lives!"

While talking and laughing, a man surnamed Zhong personally sent Zhu Houzhao out, while Mrs. Zhong looked at her face and did not go out to see her.

When someone left the door, Mrs. Zhong asked her cousin, "What's going on? How did you leave Shuntian Prefecture?"

The young man said, "Cousin, my brother-in-law and I don't know what's going on. I just saw a yamen servant coming in the cell, opened the shackles, saying that there was a noble person who helped clear the joints so that I could both be released from prison... Cousin, you don't know how much suffering my brother-in-law and I have suffered in the past few days..."
