, No matter how well you eat, it is useless. "After speaking, he began to ask her if the people in the house were easy to manage, and then asked her if she was having trouble with food and lodging. This is not much different from the appearance of Concubine Jing Gui asking He Heng.
After Qu Qing Ju answered one by one, seeing that the girl behind Luo Shi was always quiet, she asked, "Auntie, where is the girl with such a sign, I can't help but like it."
Luo Shi stopped at his feet, glanced at the girl Qu Qing Ju was talking about, and saw that her face was already flushed, and said, "It is said that she is the same age as you, only a month younger than you, so it is appropriate for you to call her sister. My eldest niece Wen Yao, you will spend a lot of time together in the future, so I will let you meet."
Wenyao, Luo Wenyao? Qu Qing Ju suddenly understood, this is the granddaughter of the Luo family who was married to He Ming? Seeing that Luo Wenyao was already full of red clouds at this time, she didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "I like this sister."
Hearing what she said was outrageous, Luo Shi sighed with a smile: "I haven't seen it for a few days, and it's getting more and more cramped." After speaking, he pulled Luo Wenyao over and let the two walk beside him, "However, you like this Sister, I am also relieved."
Qu Qing Ju understood what Luo Shi meant, not everyone would like a good girl to be assigned to an unloved prince. The royal family is muddy, the husband is not favored, and the concubines are not simple. If no one takes care of them, they may suffer a lot.
Thinking of this, she showed a smile on her face, "Don't worry, auntie, I will definitely treat sister Wenyao as my own sister." Three of the royal family's four daughters-in-law ran against each other. It's not a bad thing for her to be close to Luo Wenyao. But she didn't expect that the Luo family would really take this step, which shows that she really loves this girl.
Luo Wenyao quietly listened to the conversation between her aunt and Princess Duan. In the past, she had heard many stories of Princess Duan being treated by her stepmother before leaving the court. Today, when she saw the real person, she felt that she was a very dazzling woman, with every frown and smile. The amorous feelings made her feel inexplicably longing and close.
People are easily attracted to people who are different from themselves. Luo Wenyao has a quiet and elegant temperament, and there is no conflict between her future husband and Duan Wang. After seeing Qu Qingju being friendly to her, it is easy to feel close to her, so she stayed in the house. , the two have already started talking.
The old lady Luo, who was already sitting in the room, saw this scene and showed a relieved smile. Seeing this, the princess was more like the Tian family.
The female family members present were all close to the Tian Luo family, and they were not too restrained to get along with Qu Qingju, but they sighed a few words when they heard that King Duan came with Qu Qingju.
Some people noticed that Princess Duan and the girl from the Luo family came in together, and they understood what was going on, and no one broke it. They only told some interesting things in Beijing to pass the time.
"I heard that there is an expert from Wuzhuangguan, and it is very effective to unravel the signing. After the flower court, I will bring my family to ask for it."
"Isn't Wuzhuangguan in the suburbs of Beijing? When are you going, let's go get a signature together."
Qu Qing Ju listened to this conversation and put down the tea cup in her hand. Buddhism and Taoism were all prevalent in the Dalong Dynasty, but the court did not support any of them, but the people had their own beliefs.
Seeing that Qu Qingju seemed to be interested in the Wuzhuang Temple, Luo Shi said: "The Wuzhuang Temple is the largest Taoist temple in Beijing. It is located on the Baiyun Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing. You can also ask for it.”
Qu Qing Ju smiled and said, "It's not necessary. What is human's destiny is already determined by God, and the calculation will bring back luck." Although she is not a staunch atheist, she believes that luck will become thinner and thinner. It's a kind of argument, so I'm not interested in things like asking for a signature.
Not expecting that Qu Qing Ju would say such a thing, Luo Shi was stunned for a while, before nodding and saying, "This is also reasonable."
Luo Wenyao's heart skipped a beat when she heard it, and she looked at Qu Qing Ju with a hint of respect in her eyes. With such an open mind, how many women in the world can do it? At this time, she felt that she was worried about how much trouble she would be asking after getting married. It was no different to think about things that were already doomed. It is better to think about how to live a good life. This is the greatest blessing.
Thinking of this, Luo Wenyao looked at Qu Qing Ju with a hint of gratitude and a smile on her face.
After the banquet, everyone listened for a long time before they got up to say goodbye. Qu Qing Ju got up and took Luo Shi's hand after everyone had left, "Auntie, it's time for me to go home."
Roche was a little reluctant, but he had to say: "Take care of yourself in the house, there are many people in the house, you have to pay more attention." This is to remind those side rooms, but as Roche, it is not much. Say.
Qu Qing Ju nodded, then bent over to enter the sedan chair, and after taking a look at Luo Shi, did she let the curtain down.
Seeing the sedan chair disappearing outside the second door, Luo Wenyao sighed in a low voice, "Princess Duan is really a wonderful person."
Luo Shi glanced at his niece, remembered his niece who had been bullied in Changde Gong's mansion, and sighed, hoping that King Duan would always treat her as well.
"You have to remember that in order for a woman to live a good life, she must first be kind to herself. Even if you wronged yourself, others will wrong you even more." Luo Shi said earnestly, "Although King Cheng is not favored by the emperor, but I I have seen him before, he is a kind-hearted person, you don't have to worry too much."
"Aunt..." Luo Wenyao's face suddenly turned red, but there was a hint of anticipation in her shyness.
At the door of Xiangqinghou Mansion, He Heng saw Qu Qingju come out of the sedan chair, a smile appeared on his face, and Tian Kun, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but look over.
He watched Duan Wang walk towards his cousin, maybe it was because the two of them looked so good, or maybe it was because they laughed intoxicatingly.
Tian Kun blinked, maybe he thought too much.
☆、36
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, when the imperial court opened, the number of carriages and sedan chairs in the capital finally became less, and the small vendors on both sides of the street gradually increased.
However, just after the beginning of the dynasty, there was a big incident in the court hall, because an official called King Shen Rui made loan sharks in Jiangnan, participated in the salt administration, and opened a casino. This incident caused an uproar. On the third day when the incident became more and more serious, the official even angered King Rui for being a thief and even threatened his family. on the load-bearing column.
All of a sudden, water rolled into the oil pan, frying the entire capital upside down, and the emperor was stunned in anger on the hall. For a time, everyone in the capital was in danger, for fear that they would be implicated.
In Prince Duan's mansion, Qu Qing Ju flipped through the more and more salutations posted recently, frowning and said, "If anyone comes to visit in the future, they will say that I am ill. The prince is busy with business and is not in the mansion, so he cannot receive guests." He Qi and He Yuan were fighting, and Duan Wangfu didn't need to join in the fun.
The smart enough officials in the capital should have found out that the official killed by the crash had something to do with King Ning. The people on both sides of King Ning and King Rui were choking so hard at the moment. Muddy beach
Mujin nodded to indicate that she had written it down, and seeing the deep expression on the princess' face, she said, "The people from Changde's mansion came here in the morning and said that the old lady missed you."
Qu Qing Ju said with a sarcastic smile, "I didn't see the old lady thinking of me in Changde's mansion back then, but now I think of me." She couldn't see the manner of Changde's mansion, "They are now facing up. No one is just trying to use the old lady's name to snoop on the news and tell the messenger that I have been cold in the past, but now I can't stand the disease when I'm cold."
Anyway, the reputation of Changde's mansion is already bad enough, so she doesn't mind adding more bad reputation, anyway, it is a sure thing that Liang's abuse of his first wife and daughter is a certainty.
"That's good, so that these people don't get tangled up shamelessly." The silver willow next to him added some silver wire smokeless charcoal to the bronze lion charcoal basin in the corner, filled with righteous indignation. Just stick up."
When Qu Qing Ju heard this, she couldn't help but smile, "You think too much. Although the manor of Changde is shameless, it's still not enough to rush over." With the temperament of Duke Changde, how could he be willing to do so? The grievance Liang, as for Liang, is even more unlikely to want to see himself, the only one who really wants to get along with Duanwang's mansion may be Mrs. Qu, but unfortunately she is old now, and Changde's mansion is no longer her world.
Mujin glanced at Yin Liu, and didn't let her say anything that shouldn't be said. Yin Liu has become more and more unruly recently, even if the princess is a generous person, she shouldn't rely on the princess to value her and forget her duty.
Under Mujin's stare, Yin Liu knew that he had broken the rules, so he hurriedly shut up and didn't dare to speak nonsense again.
Seeing the movement between the two, Qu Qing Ju smiled but didn't speak, Yin Liu's temper was indeed a little anxious, and Mu Jin would take care of her, so as not to suffer from this temper in the future.
In Prince Rui's mansion, He Yuan smashed a tea cup with a gloomy face: "He Qi really played a good trick this time!" He Yuan felt extremely angry when he thought of the official who was killed in the hall. Need to threaten such a small official? ! Now that things have become too turbulent, in order to appease the lingering public in the world, the father has actually exempted him from the qualifications to go to court, and even the palace has not given up.
He has always been at odds with the boss, but because of his father's preference, he rarely suffered losses in the battles in the court, and he did not expect such a big downfall this time.
"My lord, I'm afraid this matter is a bit tricky. It's just what I think. The most important thing now is to wipe up the Jiangnan affairs," a guest comforted. Check it out, as long as there is no evidence for these things, even if a few more people die, it's not a big deal." He actually knew in his heart that no matter whether the prince could clear it up or not, it would always be a hindrance to his reputation.
People in the world often believe in bad things and don't believe in good things. Even if it is proven that the matter has nothing to do with the prince, in the eyes of others, it is only the emperor who wants to protect the prince, so he deliberately pardoned the prince. What's more, the prince has already done these things.
"It's not a big deal to die a few more people?" He Yuan sneered and glanced at the disciple, then turned to look at the other disciple, "Gao Duo, who do you think the emperor will send to Jiangnan to investigate the case this time?"
The disciple who became Gao Duo did not rush to speak because of He Yuan's name. After he pondered for a while, he said: "My lord, you are the emperor's favorite prince, this is more beneficial to you than anything else. Now King Ning is moving. It is getting bigger and bigger, and it has caused the emperor's jealousy. If there is no mistake, the emperor will send King Cheng and an official favored by the emperor to Jiangnan."
"The fourth child?" He Yuan raised his eyebrows, "The fourth child has always been timid and indecisive, so you don't need to worry too much. The only thing you worry about is the officials accompanying him."
"Now there are four officials most trusted by the emperor in the court, one is Xiangqing Hou Tian Jin Keren Dali Temple Shaoqing, but this person is the uncle of Princess Duan, and the emperor will not send him; the other is the Minister of War, Luo Changqing, but this person is sincere His Royal Highness Wang's future father-in-law, the emperor is even less likely to send him; the third is Lu Jinghong, a scholar of Hongyuange who has already served as the chief examiner of this imperial examination; therefore, excluding these three, only the right prime minister Wei Wenguang is most likely to accompany him, and Wei Wenguang has the means Although you don't have much patience, you are very knowledgeable about current affairs and have always been favored by the emperor." Gao Duo bowed and said meaningfully, "My lord, all these speculations are based on the emperor's preference for you."
After He Yuan heard this, he sat back in his chair and pondered for a while, and the anxiety on his face gradually calmed down: "Mr. Gao means this king understands, you all step back."
Hearing the change in the prince's address to himself, Gao Duo calmly retreated with the other disciples. After leaving the main courtyard, he stroked his not much beard and stared at the other disciples with a smile as he left the palace with jealous eyes. .
In the main hall of Tianqi Palace, He Heng and the other three brothers were standing below, and there were also several officials standing to the left and right. Perhaps it was because Emperor Qingde's face on the dragon throne was too ugly, and their faces were all heavier than the other.
There are no less than 100 documents about King Ruizha in the court hall. Even if Emperor Qingde has his heart, he can't suppress it. His slightly old face now looks even more vicissitudes of life. Looking at the following sons and courtiers, he is also a little helpless: "The matter of King Rui, I still have doubts in my heart, and I will make a decision after the facts are ascertained."
Although everyone knew that this was a fact, at this moment they had to shout out that the emperor was wise, and then began to argue about who to send to Jiangnan.
"Okay, I know what you said, and tomorrow I will make an order in the courtroom, so let's all retire." Emperor Qingde may also understand that this is true, but he is reluctant to punish his favorite son. Distraught, he kicked people out.
He Qi walked out of the main hall with a bad look on his face. He didn't even look at He Heng and He Ming, and left with a flick of his sleeves, showing how angry he was.
He Ming blinked and looked at the eldest brother who left in a hurry, and then turned to look at the second brother beside him, as if waiting for what he meant.
"It's getting late, let's go back to the house, too," He Heng smiled casually, "The fourth brother and the second brother are going together?"
"Second brother, please," He Ming heard the words and politely asked He Heng to go first.
"Why do we brothers pay attention to this?" He Heng patted him on the shoulder and took the lead, but whether intentionally or not, he always tried his best to walk shoulder to shoulder with He Ming.
When the two walked to the gate of the palace, they met He Yuan who got off the carriage. He Yuan was wearing a sapphire blue satin robe.
After the three met and greeted each other, He Yuan looked at the two and said, "Are the second and fourth brothers going to leave the palace?"
Although He Heng knew in his heart that He Ming should stay in the mansion at this time, rather than appearing at the gate of the palace, he said with a natural face: "That's right."
"Then brother will leave first," He Yuan showed a smile on his face, "Second brother and fourth brother walk slowly."
"Third brother please," because He Yuan didn't pay much attention to him on weekdays, and suddenly heard He Yuan mention him, He Ming showed a hint of surprise, and then smiled and returned a salute, "Brother will not bother third brother. "
He Yuan nodded, before striding towards the Tianqi Palace with a eunuch, the sapphire blue back looked a little anxious.
Looking at this scene, when He Heng looked at He Ming, the smile on his face faded a little. When the two separated and got into the carriage, He Heng patted his shoulder: "Fourth brother, take care."
He Ming smiled and bowed: "Second brother, walk slowly."
Looking at the carriage with the words Duan Wangfu exiting the palace gate, He Ming got into his own carriage. After the curtain was lowered, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, and there was a little helplessness and bitterness in his eyes.
After getting off the carriage, He Heng stepped into the mansion gate when he looked up and saw the paper kite flying in the air, he squinted and looked at Ming He who was following behind him with a frown: "Find out who is putting it away, in the future no one will be allowed to put it in the mansion. Such things." In the past, someone used a paper kite to send news outside, and now the capital is in a time of panic, and he didn't want to send a spy to the palace.
"Yes," Ming He waved to the eunuchs behind him, and the eunuchs quickly retreated, trying to find the person who put the paper kite as quickly as possible.
In the main courtyard, Qu Qing Ju looked at the flying beauty Zhi Yuan with a smile, then turned to Mu Jin and said, "Look, isn't this someone using this method?"
Mujin also smiled gently: "The princess expects things like a god."
It's just that I don't know who is so stupid to do such a stupid thing at this time
☆、37 · Suspicious
Seeing that the paper kite had been floating for a while, Qu Qing Ju said with a pity, "Oh, I haven't gotten warmer today, so I have the leisure to fly a kite, but he is really an elegant person."
"What kind of elegant person," He Heng strode in, just when he heard this sentence, he said with a half-smile, "If Qing Ju likes it, I will take you to Bie Zhuang to play after bringing Tian Nuan. You can put whatever you want."
"I'm tired from running," Qu Qingju said with disgust, "If your lord really cares about me, why don't you find me more cooks and let me taste all the delicious food in the world."
"That's fine, I'll take you to Bie Zhuang to taste the authentic farm food in a few days," He Heng pulled her into the door, took off his cloak and handed it to a girl, "Those things are not as delicate as the mansion, but they have a different flavor. ."
"Well, the bacon that Bie Zhuang sent a few days ago was very good," Qu Qing Ju poured him a cup of tea, and after He Heng took it, she sat down on the chair next to him, "I'll have someone get more. some into the palace."
"These pickled and smoked things taste good, but eating too much is bad for your health. You should avoid them," He Heng took a sip of tea, and after hearing Qu Qingju's words, he put down the teacup and said, "Don't let it go. Come with your temperament."
Hearing this, Qu Qing Ju smiled, turned around and trimmed a pot of dwarf pine: "Don't worry, my lord, I won't do stupid things." It seems that the ancients became proficient in diet very early. It's just He Heng's words, I wonder if it's a pun
"Forget it, I know you like to eat and drink, but it won't hurt your body," He Heng felt that although Qu Qing Ju was still smiling, the smile had faded, so he had no choice but to change the subject, "Just now No matter who the paper kite is in the house, you must imprison her."
Seeing that his face was a little serious, Qu Qing Ju nodded slowly: "Your Highness means..."
"Check it out first," He Heng raised the teacup again but didn't drink it. He looked at Qu Qing Ju and said seriously, "There are always people in the palace who don't belong to you or me."
He didn't expect He Heng to tell her about these things, but Qu Qing Ju treated this man a little differently. This man is definitely a decisive person, but he is usually gentle and refined, which makes people less defensive, "Your Highness is suspicious. This man has no ulterior motives."
"There are many ways to attract my attention, this method is not very clever," He Heng smiled lightly, "I see that the paper kite didn't fly too high, but after a while, it broke the thread and flew outside the mansion. This is not to attract my attention. look."
Qu Qing Ju raised her eyebrows slightly, she thought that someone used this method to attract He Heng's attention, but she didn't expect that someone would actually use this method to communicate messages at this time. Thinking of this, she smiled lightly, "Maybe it's just a coincidence?"
"Whether it's a coincidence or intentional," He Heng said calmly, "This person can't be kept."
Qu Qingju's hand in cutting the short pine was crooked, and she cut an extra branch. She picked up the pine branch with a pity, and she cut the bonsai to waste again. She majored in dance in her previous life, and later became an agent in the dance circle, so she could be considered ingenious, so how did she become a bonsai killer
Putting down the scissors in her hand, she turned around and washed her hands in the copper basin brought by the maid, then wiped her hands and said, "You can decide on these matters, my lord, all I can do is to take care of this backyard for you."
He Heng saw her fair and slender fingers wiping on the soft silk, and somehow felt the incomparable temptation of these hands, he was stunned before saying: "You are doing very well, the backyard is quiet with you. A lot."
Putting the silk and silk back on the tray, she motioned for the maid to step back. Qu Qingju turned her head and smiled at He Heng, "Does the lord think the backyard is too quiet?"
"It's not quiet, it's quiet," He Heng stood up with a smile and pulled the person in front of him, "I really like the way the backyard looks like this."
Flying a wink at the other party, Qu Qing Ju turned around and sat down on the chair next to her, "As long as the lord likes it, I'm afraid that the lord thinks that there are few beauties in the yard, and complains that I am not generous or virtuous."
He Heng walked to her side, stole a scent from her cheek, and said, "This king's Qing Ju can't be more virtuous, virtuous, respectful, and sensitive."
Extending two fingers to push the person's face away, Qu Qing Ju raised her chin and laughed lightly: "Your Highness, please remember this." After speaking, seeing the smile on the other side, it was like a gift. Kiss him on the chin.
He Heng was tickled by this move. It wasn't that no woman took the initiative to kiss him, but he felt that only the woman in front of him moved the most attractive, so he didn't want to bear it any longer, and bent over to hug her into his arms.
"My lord, the person who put the paper kite has been caught, please decide."
He Heng had never felt that Qian Changxin had lost his eyes as he did now. He took a deep breath, then stood up straight and sat down, "Come in."
Qu Qing Ju held up the blue-and-white porcelain cup to cover half of her cheeks, and tilted her head to look at He Heng with a smile.
He Heng happened to see this look, and his heart was itchy again. He took a deep look at her, sighed helplessly, and then looked away reluctantly.
Satisfied with He Heng's response, Qu Qingju adjusted her dignified posture and turned her head to see Qian Changxin bringing in a few people, and the two strong maids at the back were holding a young man in a pink skirt. The woman looked familiar.
After waiting for the others to kneel in front of him, Qu Qing Ju recognized who this person was. It turned out to be Bai Zhi, He Heng's maid, and why Bai Zhi stayed by He Heng's side, she didn't know, but this person never showed up or pinched his head. After so long, is it all acting? Originally thought that someone was using this method to invite pets, but it seemed that she was wrong. Sure enough, in the struggle for the throne, the existence of spies is indispensable. Her vision seems to be not long-term enough. This is a good lesson for her.
If she was sending a message to the outside world, what exactly was it? She is a small room, what can she get in touch with
He Heng gently scraped the rim of the cup with the lid, making some harsh noises, but just this action made Bai Zhi tremble with fright.
"This king remembers that you passed the room two years ago," He Heng said while taking a sip of tea noodles, "The paper kite you dropped outside was picked up by this king, why don't you? Let this king appreciate that paper kite."
Bai Zhi's complexion changed slightly, but she kowtowed: "Your Highness forgives your sins, the servants don't know that they can't put paper kites in the palace, I beg your Highness for forgiveness!"
Ignoring her pleas, He Heng saw Minghe brought Zhi Yuan in, took Zhi Yuan and looked at the simple beauty picture above, and two poems were mentioned next to the beauty picture.
"Practice the shoes of traveling far away, and the light robes that sway the mist..." He Heng, seeing the beauty in the painting wearing a fancy dress, hummed softly from a high place: "What a painting, what a poem."
Qu Qing Ju raised her eyebrows and looked at Bai Zhi, if she guessed correctly, this painting seems to be referring to her? "Your Highness..." Bai Zhi's complexion changed, "The servant was not thinking carefully, but she forgot to avoid the princess' name, and asked the princess to forgive her sins." After speaking, she kowtowed to Qu Qingju.
Qu Qing Ju's face showed a look of embarrassment, biting the corner of her mouth and looking at He Heng.
"You don't have to ask the princess," He Heng slapped the paper kite in his hand on the table, and said coldly, "Come on, Bai Zhi offended the princess and dragged her down and locked her in the firewood room."
Soon someone dragged Bai Zhi down, He Heng got up and said to Qu Qing Ju, "I still have some things to do, wait for me to come back and have dinner together at night."
Qu Qing Ju nodded, tied the cape to him, and glanced at the paper kite on the table that was smashed into pieces, "This paper kite?"
"Minghe, take this paper kite and burn it," He Heng said to Minghe, then turned to Qu Qingju and smiled, holding her hand, "Don't worry."
Feeling the back of her hand pinching, Qu Qing Ju glared at He Heng, and when she saw him turn around and walk out, she said, "The weather has changed rapidly these days.
He Heng smiled at her before taking people out of the main courtyard. He lowered his face and said to Qian Changdao, "Pay attention to who has approached the firewood room these few days. These people will not be able to stay in the future."
Qian Changxin nodded and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, Wang Changming is here."
"Go to the study," He Heng's expression darkened, thinking of the worry-free women in the backyard, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Seeing Wang Changming, He Heng's expression returned to normal, "What news is there?"
"Go back to the lord, Prince Rui has already entered the palace to ask to see the emperor, and he wants Prince Cheng to go to Jiangnan," Wang Changming said with a smile on his face, "It seems that our plan has succeeded."
"The third brother has always thought that he is higher than the other three brothers, and he looks down on the fourth one. Naturally, he wants to pick a soft persimmon," He Heng sneered, "I disclosed the news to King Ning. How can something happen to be worthy of the third child's busy work."
Pretending not to hear the secrets between the princes, Wang Changming said, "This subordinate understands, what else can King Rui do?"
"There is no need for others to do anything, his temper will cause trouble," He Heng said lightly, "Let's just watch it coldly."
Wang Changming immediately agreed with it, and said with a bow: "Your Highness, see you."
On the second day, the emperor really ordered the court to order King Cheng and Wei Wen to go down to the south of the Yangtze River to thoroughly investigate the matter of King Rui, and gave a gold medal like my presence. He strictly ordered the two to check carefully, so as not to be wronged by those who have a heart King Rui.
These words showed the emperor's attitude inside and out. Some people knew in their hearts that even if King Rui couldn't go to court at the moment, he was still the emperor's most favored and trusted prince. No wonder people were so fearless.
One day later, He Ming and Wei Wenguang, who had the title of imperial envoy, set off with their men and horses. Everyone in the capital sympathized with the unfavored King Cheng. Everyone knew that the emperor wanted them to go through the motions, but if King Rui was kept, It is to leave a bad name for the people of the world to cover up traitors, which shows what the emperor's heart is.
He Qi sat in the teahouse and watched the people leave the city with a mocking smile on his face. When the people and horses could no longer be seen, he put down the teacup and whispered to Dr. Cha who was pouring tea beside him: "Look for an opportunity on the way to do it... Try not to hurt King Cheng."
☆、38. The woman in the rumor
In the middle of the night, when no one was there, a dark shadow flashed in the corner of the firewood room. The man had not approached the firewood room when suddenly several lanterns appeared around him. He looked around in amazement, and only saw a lot of people around him. (Beautiful garden../html/3/3266/)
"Grandpa Qian waited for several days and finally caught you, the rat." Qian Changxin appeared in the corner with a lantern. He glanced at the servant dressed as a servant in disgust and raised his hand. If you tie it up, don't startle the masters of the house."
As soon as the people rushed up, the man was gagged before he had time to speak, and he was tied and dragged away.
"Things that don't have eyes," after speaking, he spat on the ground, kicked open the door of the firewood house, looked down at Baizhi tied in the corner with a girdle, and said with a smile, "Miss Baizhi, Your accomplice has just been caught, why don't you talk to me, who let you in?"
Bai Zhi twisted the rope on her body, but the rope was too tight, and she couldn't break free, so she stared at Qian Changxin with hatred.
"Let go of her mouth," Qian Changxin took the whip from the hand of the person behind him and tapped it lightly in his palm, still with a warm smile on his face, "Miss Baizhi, what do you want to say?"
"I don't know anything," Bai Zhi turned her head angrily and didn't look at Qian Changxin, "I just wanted to release Zhi Yuan, and the prince has wronged the servant."
Qian Changxin was too lazy to argue with her, but just said impatiently: "It makes no difference whether you say it or not, but it's a pity that you have the youngest and the youngest in your family, and the younger sister who just got married. It's better to give you a charge of poisoning the prince, I don't know yours. What will the family suffer?"
"Shameless!" Bai Zhi turned her head and stared at Qian Changxin, "What do you want to do?"
"You're not the first person to praise grandpa like this," Qian Changxin threw the whip away, the smile on his face became more obvious, and suddenly a whip hit Bai Zhi, "People who praise grandpa like this often have teeth all over the place these days. It's not on me anymore."
Her whole body shrank in pain, and Bai Zhibai said palely, "This servant is wronged."
"Since you would rather give up your family and protect the master behind you, grandpa will no longer feel sorry for your family," Qian Changxin said with a smile, "it's better to let your family go first tomorrow, I hope you will see them when you go down. , with a face looking up."
Bai Zhi was already bursting with tears, she covered her wounds and choked: "It was His Royal Highness Ning Wang who asked the servants to pay attention to the affairs of the mansion, but the status of the servants was low and did not pass any news. A few days ago, His Royal Highness King Ning asked the servants to investigate. How the prince treats the princess in the mansion, the slaves thought it was not an important matter, so they dared to spread the news." She was not afraid of death, but she was afraid of affecting her family.
"Nonsense, what a bright and upright person, His Royal Highness King Ning, how can you allow you to slander!" Qian Changxin said solemnly, "How can the prince believe such nonsense."
"It's true, the slave's younger brother entered the Prince Ning's mansion as an official a few days ago. The slave was really helpless, so he was obsessed with ghosts and asked the father-in-law for a clear lesson. The slave really didn't spread any news." Bai Zhi cried and knelt in front of Qian Changxin.
"Okay, Grandpa, I won't listen to your nonsense anymore," Qian Changxin took two steps back, preventing Bai Zhi from hugging his legs, and said lightly, "Bai Zhi passed away recently, and someone brought thirty taels of silver to her family. ." After speaking, he motioned the people behind him to pour the poisonous wine into Bai Zhi.
"Xie Wangye, Xie Gonggong." Bai Zhi shook her hands and raised her head to drink, no matter what, at least Wangye let her family go.
Qian Changxin walked out of the firewood room, threw the whip in his hand, took the handkerchief handed over by the little eunuch and wiped his hands, "I have hidden people for a long time, at least I have served the prince. , how can there be any good ending." After speaking, he walked away without looking back.
When Baizhi died in the house, not many people in the house cared about it, because everyone knew that Baizhi died violently, and people who died violently were often the least curious.
When Qu Qing Ju heard the news, she was cutting a new pot of bonsai. After listening to Huang Yang's words, she put down the scissors and said, "Since the person is gone, don't mention the past, and let someone send some to her home. The things are also considered the grace of the lord to her." Since He Heng said that Bai Zhi died of illness, then she had to make this face.
Like Yin Liu, who was so quick and quick, she couldn't say anything at the moment. After Huang Yang went out, she just said a little uneasy: "The people are gone."
"This servant can't tolerate half-heartedness," Mu Jin put away the scissors that Qu Qing Ju put on the table, lest Qu Qing Ju would accidentally hurt her hand, "She can be like this now, it can be regarded as a kindhearted prince. ." This kind of thing, let alone a life, is also possible to implicate the clan.
After hearing this, Yin Liu didn't argue. For her, all she had to do every day was to serve the princess well. She didn't need to think about other things, and she couldn't think so much.
Qu Qing Ju rested her chin with one hand and looked out the window boredly. This kind of life without a computer or a mobile phone is really boring, she yawned and said lazily, "Mujin, find some script for me. Here comes the biography."
Mujin bowed and stepped back, but after a while, Huaben didn't wait, Qu Qingju first waited for a golden invitation card with a shower.
"Princess Jin'an?" Qu Qing Ju looked at the invitation card in her hand. During the festival, there were several princess princesses sitting at another table, but she had never seen this Princess Jin'an. If her memory was correct, Princess Jin'an was the eldest daughter of Emperor Qingde. Although her biological mother died young, she was remembered by the queen, and was named the eldest princess by the emperor, and her status was not low among the female relatives. It's just that she has lived in Jingzhou since she married Bei Lubo and rarely returns to Beijing.
It is rumored that Bei Lubo and Princess Jin An are very affectionate and have already had a son and a daughter, which is envied by many girls in the court, and even a model couple in the eyes of many people. It's just that she returned to Beijing, and she still holds such a so-called painting banquet during the new year and the holiday
She looked at the beautiful hairpins and small letters on the post. The post sent to the palace should have been written by Princess Jin'an herself. The so-called characters are like people. This Princess Jin'an should be a very talented woman.
After unloading a reply with her own hands, Qu Qing Ju waited for the ink to dry before closing the reply, and handed it to Jin Zhan, who was serving the ink next to her, and said, "Have someone send it to the eldest princess' residence."
In the evening, He Heng arrived at the main courtyard, and after the two of them had dinner together, Qu Qing Ju brought this up.
Although He Heng is not close to his sister, he still hears about some things in Beijing: "The eldest princess has returned to Beijing two days ago, although you and her have not met, but since the invitation has been sent, you will go."
Qu Qing Ju handed him a cup of Xiaoshi tea, "I have already replied to the post, but the painting banquet will be three days later, and the day after will be the Shangyuan Festival, the day I set for the eldest princess.
