第720章 一浪接一浪

介甫和曾巩在永城侯府混了一顿吃喝后,这才挺着圆鼓鼓的肚子,从后门溜出来。

“你也要去云州吗?”

两人一路走到热闹的街市上,许是因为临近年节,南北货商带着各地产出来到京都,想要赚今年的最后一笔钱。

曾巩文文静静,说起话来也是斯斯文文的:“要去的,替大家伙看看。”

曾巩祖上世代为学者,祖父曾经做过尚书户部郎中,父亲为太常博士。

前几年,曾巩父亲被调到泰州府如皋县当县令,他和兄长一起跟随过去。

如皋县学风纯正,胡瑗,王惟熙,王俊乂等皆学有大成,曾巩和他们也算有交情。

曾巩父亲曾易占因为当县令的缘故,深知想要成为一个好的父母官有多难,故而对能把云州建设成如今这般模样的云国公,很是好奇和推崇。

受父亲的影响,曾巩出门游学第一站就想选择云州,但好友介甫却想来京都,正好京都好友苏玄明写信邀请,他便和介甫同行。

介甫挠挠脑袋,小声嘟囔:“我觉得玄明没跟我们说实话。如果云国公和朱大人真这么缺钱,为何只做了松露一个局?”

卖松露是挣钱,但不是最挣钱的。

曾巩好奇道:“如果是你,你会如何挣钱?”

介甫摸了摸下巴,胡须有些扎手:“若是我,肯定要割一波勋贵。”

从老百姓身上断骨吸髓算什么本事?天下财富二八分,八成在勋贵世家手里。

要挣钱,就得挣有钱人的钱。

介甫和曾巩回到住处,休息一晚上,次日清早就收到请帖。

“是乐乡郡王的寿辰帖子。”介甫拿着帖子,眉头死死皱着。

乐乡郡王是当今天子的堂叔,没有实职,向来不过问朝廷政事。

自己不过是一名不经传的秀才,好友曾巩的身份,也不足以去参加此次寿宴。

曾巩打开一看:“应该是玄明的关系。”

昨日二人去拜访永昌侯府,并没有刻意瞒着人。

今天一大早,他们二人就收到了请帖,寿宴是在后日。

很显然,是乐乡郡王知道他俩和苏玄明有交情。

曾巩:“去吗?”

“去!”介甫心中遍布疑云。

未曾听闻云国公和乐乡郡王有交情啊。

宴无好宴,也不知道此次生辰宴会会闹出什么幺蛾子来。

不过苏玄明没有特意叮嘱什么,想必无碍。

介甫和曾巩去西市,想要琢磨一两件像样的贺礼,最好是又便宜又能拿得出手。

西市上,人潮涌动,热闹非凡。

连着逛了好几家店,介甫从和掌柜们的交谈中得到一个消息,此次乐乡郡王的寿宴办得极大。

据说,还邀请了聚春楼里的玉笙娘子去献舞。

玉笙娘子名满京都,一曲掌上惊鸿舞,让她赢得舞蹈大家的称号。

现在,想要见上她一面,是极其不容易的。

介甫兴致勃勃:“久闻玉笙娘子的大名,一直无缘得见,这次能借着乐乡郡王的光,一开眼界。玄明总算做了件好事。”

曾巩对此不感兴趣,只心疼起用来买礼物的钱:“你和玉笙娘子本无缘,全靠你我花钱。”

介甫摸摸瘪瘪的荷包,心虚道:“天生我材必有用,千金散尽还复来。”

“呵。”

时间转瞬即逝,很快就来到乐乡君王生辰之日。

一个没有任何政治立场的富贵闲王,文武百官还是很给他面子的,就连不爱凑热闹的佟太师也来了。

为了举办这次寿辰宴,整个乐乡郡王府关门谢客整整十日。

高大的院墙阻隔了好奇的视线。

路过郡王府的每一个人,心里都不免好奇,乐乡郡王到底在搞什么?
此次寿宴是晚宴。

郡王府大门洞开,郡王次子在门口迎宾。

皆知乐乡郡王精心准备寿宴,却没想到如此精心。

雪花飘飘,园林中却用彩纸,绢布制作出以假乱真的花朵。

这不是最紧要的。

最紧要的是满府的灯火璀璨。

“我的天。乐乡郡王是把大周的所有琉璃灯都买来了吗?!”

这简直是把有钱两个字,刻在乐乡郡王的脸上!

“见过佟太师。”郡王世子穿着一袭银白长衫,行动间,长衫上淡淡纹路流光溢彩,头发挽起,只用于玉冠装点,整个人都像在发光一般。

介甫远远一看,暗暗吐槽,真会装逼!
郡王世子目不斜视,笑容温和,引着诸位客人落座。

佟太师看到自己桌前摆放的东西时,表情差点咔嚓一下裂开。

桌子角落摆放着一个小小的三足芙蓉石熏炉,熏炉唯美,桃粉色的玻璃质地,流淌着乳白色云状纹理。炉身采用掐丝珐琅工艺,添有葡萄缠枝,美而不妖,艳而不俗。

好在这样的香炉只有一两个,摆在佟太师和李阁老身边。

随着宴会开始,训练有素的侍女们端上一碟干果。

干果没什么稀奇的,稀奇的是装干果的碟子。

那是一整套玻璃描金花餐具,蓝色的盘子上描金缠枝花纹,颜色透亮,比最好的蓝宝石还要夺目。

“嘶嘶,乐乡郡王豪富至此!”

“不对呀,这不像舶来品!”

“这是哪来的琉璃?”这两套琉璃工艺堪比内造府,但又不似宫廷风格。

更不像胡商的货物,他们的彩色琉璃工艺很厉害,但风格更繁复,没有华夏的婉约韵味。

乐乡郡王穿着褐色寿司外袍,戴着着高冠,坐在太师椅上,威风八面。

他爵位高,辈分又大,便坐在椅子上懒得动弹,笑呵呵地听着众人交头接耳的惊诧声,心里不免得意。

佟太师看一眼乐乡郡王,又看一眼熏炉,再看一眼蓝色盘子,来回看了好几遍,眼神里满是惊疑。

乐乡郡王是老糊涂了吗?前几日官家才因松露发了好大一通脾气,今日他就该如此显摆琉璃?!

这是在挑衅吧?!
等干果上齐后,众人翘首以盼的玉笙娘子蒙面而出。

慢脸娇娥纤复秾,轻罗金缕花葱茏。旋去转袖若飞雪,左鋋右鋋生旋风。

玉笙娘子纤足轻点,站在冰晶一般的白莲上,宛若莲花仙子现世,叫众人看得入了神,丢了魂。

After Binding with the Maternal System, I Became a Slacker.

After Binding with the Maternal System, I Became a Slacker.

绑定慈母系统后,我摆烂了
Author:

After Gu Nanxi died from overwork, she bound a kind mother system and entered a book to become the matriarch of a noble family. The entire household was filled with villains, and ultimately, they all faced execution. Whether dead early or late, death was inevitable; it was better to lie flat and wait for it. The indecisive eldest son was a lovesick fool who ultimately squandered their family fortune for a merchant girl and even lost his life. After Gu Nanxi arrived, he no longer hesitated or chased after the merchant girl; instead, he carried "Five Years of Spring Imperial Examination, Three Years of Simulations" and followed Gu Nanxi daily, saying, "Mother, the teacher wants the parents to sign the papers; hurry and sign!" The sickly second son wanted to venture into the world, but in the end, he was framed by bandits, which implicated the whole family. Gu Nanxi had him lie down in the sun while reading martial arts novels, saying, "You might as well wander the fields; you might just save a disaster victim and become a master!" The second son’s eyes lit up: "Mother makes a good point!" The youngest daughter, who dreamed of becoming an empress, tirelessly provoked trouble for the favored concubine, only to end up in the cold palace. Gu Nanxi tossed her the housekeeper's keys and "The Thirty-Six Stratagems," saying, "If you can't even sweep your own room, how can you rule the world?" The kind mother system was in distress: "Is this how you're supposed to use the secret manuals I gave you? Is there such a thing as a kind mother?" Gu Nanxi could lie down for twenty hours a day, with the remaining four hours used for eating: "If you're capable, you go handle it." Gu Nanxi's nonchalant attitude turned the entire noble house upside down. Unexpectedly, the eldest son became the youngest premier, the second son was a general guarding the borders, and the youngest daughter became a renowned virtuous empress.
