Chapter Nineteen Shu Gong's Mansion
Just two streets away from Suiguo Duke Mansion, there is a courtyard that covers a vast area like Suiguo Duke Mansion. The front gate of the courtyard contains four large Chinese characters, Shu Duke Mansion.
At this moment, the Duke of Shu was dressed up in a fresh and lively manner. The Duke of Shu was sitting in the hall holding a bright girl talking intimately. The girl was only 27 years old, and she was very beautiful. There were many people around the hall, but it was very quiet. Only the girl's crisp voice kept ringing in the hall.
This girl was talking about what she saw from Sichuan to Chang'an. Everyone listened to it with relish. The sweet voice of the girl alone was enough to make people intoxicated, not to mention that the content of the girl was so vivid.
This girl is Yang Tian who met Yuwen in a carriage on the street today. She is the granddaughter of Duke Shu, and the wife of Duke Shu is Princess Jin Ming, the daughter of former Emperor Wen of Wei. Princess Jin Ming was praised as the number one beauty of the Wei Dynasty. I don’t know how many princes and grandchildren broke their heads in order to marry Princess Jin Ming, and were finally captured by Yuchi Jiong.
Although Princess Jin Ming is over 60 years old and has become a kind old woman, she can still see her style back then. This granddaughter is Princess Jin Ming's eldest granddaughter, named Yuchi Fanchi. Yuchi Fanchi's beauty is no less than Princess Jin Ming's youthful style. Everyone in the Duke of Shu regards her as a treasure. Even her uncles and brothers can't help but be jealous of the favor that Yuchi Fanchi loves.
Yuchi Fanchi went to Shuzhong to visit his father a few months ago. He lingered in Shuzhong for more than a month and just came back today.
"Miss Fanchi, is the Three Gorges you are talking about really so dangerous?" A voice interrupted Yuchi Fanchi's words.
Everyone immediately glared at the voice, which was outrageous. Who dared to interrupt Miss Yuchi's speech? He even questioned Miss Yuchi's speech.
When Yuwen Shi saw everyone's eyes sweeping towards him fiercely, he immediately realized something was wrong and hurriedly said, "Miss Chi, I don't doubt your words, but Miss Chi said it thrillingly. I am really curious."
Yuchi Fanchi smiled sweetly, and everyone felt that the whole lobby had lit up a few points. She opened her cherry lips and said, "Duke Song suspected that it was also right. If my younger sister had not seen the danger of the Three Gorges with her own eyes, she would not believe it."
"Li Daoyuan's "Water Classic Notes" says that from the seven hundred miles of the Three Gorges, the two sides are connected with mountains, and there is little gap. The rocks and ridges are overlapping, and the sky is hidden and the sun is hidden. From midnight at the pavilion, I cannot see the moon. When I read this, I did not believe it. There is no reason why I cannot see the moon in the seven hundred miles. Now, after hearing Miss Fan Chi's words, I have no doubts." A man next to Yuwen Shi shook his head and recited a sentence, which seemed to be knowledgeable and confirmed Yuchi Fan Chi's description of the Three Gorges just now.
"Duke Ji is very knowledgeable and can even memorize Li Daoyuan's "Water Classic Notes". My younger sister really admires it." Yuchi said quietly.
"Where, where." Duke Ji, who received the praise, was proud. He was Yuwenti, the Duke Ji, who was listed as the four evil forces in the capital with Yuwen Shi. When Yuwenti learned that when Yuchi Fanchi returned to Chang'an today, Yuwenti went to the Duke Shu Mansion to wait early in the morning. Unexpectedly, what he saw was the scene of Yuchi Fanchi and his cousin Yuwen Shi entering the Duke Shu Mansion together. He was so angry that he had been in a long time. He didn't know which gate Yuchi Fanchi would enter from Chang'an, otherwise he would have been greeted outside the city gate. Now he finally got back to the game.
Yuwen Shi's face turned red. He was ignorant. It would be impossible for him to talk to Wen. He had to glar at his cousin in disappointment.
"It is better to travel thousands of miles than reading books. Miss Fanchi has the opportunity to walk back and forth in Shu, which is really enviable." The person who spoke was a young man with a beautiful face and eyes of seventeen or eighteen years old. He was the son of Duke Qi, Yuwen Wen, who was younger than Yuwen Shi and Yuwenti. He was a versatile talent in civil and military affairs since he was a child. He was deeply admired by Emperor Wu of the present and has been named Marquis of Wen.
As soon as Yuwen Wen spoke, Yuchi Fanchi's face suddenly turned red, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which made everyone else in the hall scream.
Niu'er loves to beauties, it's true. Although Yuwen Shi and Yuwenti are Yuwen Wen's elders, their ranks are a little higher, and they don't have the advantage when chasing women.
A rough voice sounded: "What's the difficulty of traveling thousands of miles? The emperor is preparing to personally conquer Northern Qi. If a man is a man, he should join the emperor's personal conquest and establish a fame and fortune."
When this was said, no one in the hall spoke. Many of them were from the royal family. They were born with wealth and wealth. When they grew up, they were either successfully named Duke or promoted to marquis. They had a fierce battle and did not need to go to the battlefield to take risks. Everyone cursed in their hearts, Dugu Tuo, you don’t have to drag us into the water if you want fame.
Yuwen Shi, Yuwenti, Dugu Tuo and Yuchi Fanchi's younger uncle Yuchi Dun, the four evil people in the capital gathered in the Duke of Shu's mansion because of Yuchi Fanchi's return. Yuchi Dun is the youngest son of Princess Jin Ming, and is only three years older than Yuchi Yuchi Fanchi, but he is like a fellow generation.
"Fan Chi just came back today. Don't talk about fighting and killing. Let's listen to Fan Chi's experiences in Sichuan." Yuchi Dun immediately cleared the siege for everyone.
"Yes, yes, everyone listen to Miss Fan Chi's experiences below."
Yuchi Dun looked at the nobles of the princes and grandchildren with a smile and showed their diligence in front of their niece, thinking about whether they would reveal some news about their niece tomorrow and extort them one by one. Since the niece appeared in front of everyone at the age of thirteen, the Duke of Shu's mansion was almost broken, and the nobles of the princes and grandchildren came to see each other every day.
Although the Xianbei people have been sinicized, in addition to marriages between families, men and women still follow the principle of voluntary affairs. As the most favored little princess of the Duke of Shu Kingdom, Yuchi Fanchi's marriage can basically be decided by himself. Of course, this kind of decision is limited. It is obviously not possible to have too many differences in family backgrounds. However, if people who have the courage to pursue Yuchi Fanchi, how can the family background be far worse?
With this niece, Yuchi Dun was taller among the children of the princes and nobles of various families. Everyone wanted to get close to Yuchi Fanchi through Yuchi Dun and get the favor of this fairy-like man. It would be better to be able to hold a beautiful woman back. Yuchi Dun has gained a lot of benefits because of his niece.
