Chapter 079: The Teahouse's Covenant
Luo Changshou followed Xie Zhuo all day long to supervise the work in the palace during this time, and the whole person was tanned. Today, he was ordered by Xie Fuya to deliver a letter to the prince of Lu Guo, and he didn't dare to slack off and ran to the gate of Lu Guogong's mansion to guard, and he really stayed until Cheng Song, who returned late.
Cheng Song was able to recognize himself, and Luo Changshou was a little surprised.
"Cheng Shizi, my aunt and grandmother have a letter for you to hand over the little one. Luo Changshou took out the letter written by Xie Fuya from his arms and presented it to Cheng Song with both hands
"Your little aunt and grandmother?" Cheng Song's mind didn't turn for a while, and he didn't know who Luo Changshou was talking about. His eyes fell on the envelope without any handwriting in Luo Changshou's hand, and he didn't take it.
Luo Changshou said respectfully: "Our aunt and grandmother are the last time the uncle made a bet with you......"
"Ah, I see, I know. Cheng Song interrupted Luo Changshou's words, not wanting to mention the last time he lost to Xie Zhuo.
Taking the letter from Luo Changshou's hand, Cheng Song opened it and pulled out the letter paper inside.
At the beginning, Cheng Song's eyes were careless, but the more he looked at his eyebrows, the more they gathered. He tilted his head, as if he had doubts and disbelief in his heart.
After shaking the letter, Cheng Song handed over the letter written by Xie Fuya and read it again.
Luo Changshou didn't know what was written in the letter, but he raised his eyes slightly to peek at Cheng Song's expression.
After reading the letter, Cheng Song stuffed the letter back into the envelope and held it in his hand, then looked at Luo Changshou and asked, "Your aunt and grandmother are now in the Horse Mansion?"
Luo Changshou lowered his eyes and arched his hand: "Yes, my aunt and grandmother returned to the Horse Mansion today." ”
Cheng Song chuckled, "Go back and tell your aunt and grandmother that I received her letter! But I don't have to admit what I haven't done! If I want to avenge the fall into the water in the palace, I must personally kick Xie Zhuo into the river!"
Luo Changshou raised his head in astonishment and looked at Cheng Song's handsome face, "Little ...... The small one will definitely bring the words. ”
Cheng Song hooked the corner of his mouth and sneered silently, and strode up the steps with his entourage into the house.
Luo Changshou watched in a daze as the vermilion gate of the Lu Guogong Mansion opened and closed, and stayed for a moment before turning around and returning to the Horse Mansion.
Cheng Song returned to his courtyard first, and after entering the study, he took out the letter written by Xie Fuya and read it again.
Someone wants to harm Xie Zhuo, Xie Fuya suspects that it was designed by Lu Guogong and him?
It's really funny! Just because Xie Zuo kicked him into the lake at the Queen Mother's Qianqiu banquet, he was going to frame Xie Zhuo on official business? Sure enough, it was a woman's short-sightedness!
Cheng Song threw the letter on the table, and gently tapped his index finger on the table. After a while, he picked up the letter again......
Xie Fuya, this woman is still a little different!
Cheng Song hooked his lips and sneered, "False and real, true and false, I can't imagine that a woman would also play with this kind of strategist." ”
Recently, he has been bored and about to grow grass, so it is better to "check" Xie Fuya and say that someone is having crooked thoughts on the repair of the palace and someone wants to frame Xie Zhuo!
Inviting the little maid to grind, Cheng Song replied with a letter to Xie Fuya, the aunt and grandmother in Xie Fuma's Mansion, and then asked the attendant to send it to the Fuma Mansion.
"Second master, did you write to the aunt and grandmother in Xie Yuma's mansion?" Xiao Ping'an raised his eyebrows and whispered, "I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, right?"
Ping'an is the son of the Lu Guogong Mansion, and his grandmother is the dowry girl of Mrs. Cheng, plus she is young and Cheng Song treats her subordinates well, so she dares to say something in front of her master.
Cheng Song threw the brush into the pen washing jar, looked at Ping An and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?" ”
Seeing that the master was not angry and still smiling, Ping'an boldly said: "This man and woman exchange letters in private, but they will be talked about......!
"What if?" Cheng Song raised his hand and knocked on the little girl's head, "What if? She is a married woman, and her correspondence with me is also serious, what to say, what to say!"
Ping'an was knocked on his head and fled, "Second master, the little one is also good for you! You are so handsome, not to mention that the girl's family likes it, it is those married women in the deep house......"
Hearing Ping'an's words, Cheng Song grabbed the paperweight and raised it to scare him! Sure enough, Ping'an didn't dare to say anything more and ran to the study and shivered.
Cheng Song put down the paperweight and thought about it, and called the little guy in again, "Ping'an, you come in!"
Ping'an didn't dare to go in for fear of being beaten, so he stood outside the door and said loudly: "The little one knows that he is wrong, the prince of the world spares the little one!"
In the Lu State Mansion, the subordinates all called Cheng Song "Second Master", and rarely called him "Shizi". When the little girl is safe and scared, he will call Cheng Song "Shizi" and beg for mercy.
Cheng Song thought it was funny, but he couldn't hold back a smile and said with a straight face: "You come in quickly, my lord has something to ask you!"
Ping An had no choice but to enter the study, but stopped at a distance from the bookcase.
"Second master, what do you want to ask the little one?"
"You grew up in Beijing, what kind of people are the sons and two daughters born to Xie Juma and Princess Anyang, have you heard others talk about them?" asked Cheng Song.
Ping'an rolled his eyes in thought, and then looked at Cheng Song puzzled and asked, "Second Master wants to know the comments of the three little masters in Xie Yuma's Mansion?"
Cheng Song nodded, "Exactly." ”
Ping'an said: "Speaking of which, the three people in Xie Yuma's mansion are all influential figures." ”
Cheng Song raised his eyebrows and put on a listening posture.
There are three brothers and sisters in Xie Yuma's house, one is a model of noble women praised by the Queen Mother, and the other is a well-known gentleman in Beijing, only the youngest daughter Xie Fuya has nothing to show off, but after marriage, because of her husband's powder, she ransomed someone and carried her into the house to please her husband, etc., she became the object of sympathy of the women in the back house.
The object of sympathy? Cheng Song snorted coldly, and said in his heart: Obviously it is a tiger, but it is mistaken for a sick cat!
Only then did Cheng Song suddenly remember that Zhao Xi had told him that King Liang was ready to do something to Xie Zhuo, could it be that he was doing something to the palace repair, and then curing Xie Zhuo's crimes? This kind of roundabout method of framing was very similar to the idea that those strategists under King Liang would come up with! Troublesome and disgusting!
It's just that why did Xie Fuya suspect himself and write a letter to warn him?
After Ping'an finished talking about the Xie family's brothers and sisters in Beijing, he saw that the master looked pensive, he didn't dare to disturb quietly, and quietly withdrew.
At the door, the little guy breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that in the future, he will have to grasp some secrets in Beijing! In the future, when the second master asks, he can also say it freely!
After Luo Changshou returned to the Horse Mansion, he immediately reported the delivery of the letter to Xie Fuya.
Xie Fuya listened to Luo Changshou's reaction and reply relayed Cheng Song, and couldn't help biting her lip.
Is Cheng Song lying, or is it really not he who designed to frame the eldest brother? Why did those two people who provoked craftsmen mention "Lu Guogong"?
Before dinner, someone came to report that someone outside the house had sent a letter to my aunt and grandmother. Xie Fuya took the envelope and looked at it, but there was no word on it.
took out the letter and opened it, and the more Zhao Fuya looked at it, her eyebrows rose higher!
Cheng Song wants to join forces with her to find out who framed Xie Zhuo behind the scenes to prove his innocence?
Xie Fuya was afraid that the letter was not from Cheng Song's hand, so she called the person who received the letter for questioning.
"Who is the messenger, what does it look like, what clothes are you wearing?" asked Shefya.
The servant who received the letter replied: "In reply to my aunt's words, the person who delivered the letter was dressed in navy blue and short brown, held a sword in his hand, had a square face, thick eyebrows, and was very imposing and mighty...... the servant described.
"Did he tell me who sent him the letter?" asked Shefya, interrupting the servant.
The villain asked him where he was, but he told the little one that as long as he gave you the letter, you would know who asked him to deliver it. "The subordinate doesn't dare to leak a word," the little one glanced at the man's waist card, which was engraved with a tiger's head and a Lu character.
The people of the Lu State Mansion listened to the description of the clothes they were wearing, and they should be guards. It's Cheng Song's attendant, she has seen a few of them in the racecourse, and they all have the sign of the mansion hanging on their waists.
Although I don't believe Cheng Song, it's not impossible to find out the main messenger with his power!
Cheng Song's letter said that Xie Fuya would come to the teahouse at noon the next day to come to the teahouse for an interview!
For the sake of her brother's future, Xie Fuya must meet Cheng Song!
I don't know how Xie Juma persuaded Princess Anyang that night, but the next day Princess Anyang did not drive Xie Fuya back to Chengyibo's mansion, but her face was still not very good-looking.
Xie Fuya was thinking about meeting Cheng Song at noon, but she didn't pay attention to Princess Anyang's face.
After breakfast, Xie Fuya decided to go to the Fukelai Tea House to wait for Cheng Song first!
"You're going out again?"
Xie Fuya changed her clothes and reported to Princess Anyang about going out, and Princess Anyang disagreed when she heard it!
"Jiaojiao, if you go back to your parents' house to live, won't it be because you can go out of the house at will?" Princess Anyang said unhappily, "If you always run outside after returning to your parents' house, I'm afraid you will be gossiped!"
"What kind of gossip?" Xie Fuya said unconcernedly, "It's just going out for a walk and getting some air." ”
"Where are you going, bring a mother-in-law from the Pony Mansion with you. Princess Anyang frowned, "In this way, even if someone sees it, she won't say anything." ”
Wouldn't that be a woman who is watching over you?
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon. Xie Fuya said coquettishly, "It's just that I ordered good tea with the tea shop on Suzaku Street a while ago, and I went to pick it up this time, and I took a walk and took a walk by the way." ”
Xie Fuya deliberately acted coquettishly like a child, and Princess Anyang couldn't see it.
"Okay, you go back quickly, don't wait too long outside. Princess Anyang glanced at her daughter with disgust.
Xie Fuya's heart was warm, and she stepped forward to hold Princess Anyang's arm and said, "What do you need to bring? ”
Princess Anyang was finally amused by Xie Fuya, stretched out her hand and tapped her daughter's nose, and said with a sigh: "They are all married women, and they are still so coquettish, what kind of physique." I don't need anything, it's only right that you pay attention to your safety. ”
Xie Fuya coaxed Princess Anyang, and then got into the carriage of the Horse Mansion with a sigh of relief, and asked the coachman to drive the car to the tea shop on Zhuque Street, and Rushi got out of the car to buy tea and came back.
"Grandma, the tea is ready. "It's like poetry.
"Next, I went to the Fukelai Tea House, and I heard that the tea doctors there are very powerful, and the tea making technique is one top and one is good. I want to taste their work. Xie Fuya said after taking the tea can handed over by Rushi.
Rushi instructed the coachman to go to the Fukelai Teahouse, and Xie Fuya thought about what to say when she saw Cheng Song for a while.
When the Queen Mother Qianqiu feasted in the palace, Cheng Song deliberately used a knife to test when she left the palace, and Xie Fuya was therefore strongly wary of Cheng Song! The knife that Cheng Song took out was not the one she lost in Zhong'an Temple, but there was a problem when he asked! Could it be that King Liang suspected her?
When she arrived at the Fukelai Teahouse, Xie Fuya took Rushi to the second floor of the teahouse.
"What kind of tea does this grandma want to drink? Our Fukelai is a famous tea shop in Beijing, all kinds of rare and precious tea, our teahouse ......" The teahouse guy introduced his own tea.
Xie Fuya didn't interrupt him, just listened to the guy quietly. When the guy stopped talking dryly, she raised her chin to Rushi, "I only drink my own tea." ”
When the guy heard this, he noticed that the girl next to the grandmother was holding tea leaves from the Mingxiang Tea Shop in her arms.
"This grandma, we are a teahouse. You don't drink tea and you drink your own tea, this ...... It's not going to work. The partner said with a stumbling face.
Xie Fuya glanced at Rushi, and Rushi stood up and took the same money bag from her sleeve, took out two small pieces of broken silver from it and handed them to the teahouse guy.
"Our grandmother likes to be quiet and doesn't like to drink tea that doesn't taste right. Let's find a way, little brother. Rushi's voice was soft.
When the teahouse guy saw that there was money to be made, he immediately changed his tone!
"Please rest assured, grandma and girl, the little one will go and prepare!
After taking the broken silver, the teahouse guy went up and down the stairs two or three times, and arranged the charcoal stove, tea set and other things properly.
Xie Fuya sat by the window and looked at the street, like a poem guarding the tea stove and boiling water.
The street was full of pedestrians, and Xie Fuya didn't get bored after watching it for a while.
In the future, after reconciling with Cai Chengshan and collapsing into Yibo's Mansion, she does not plan to go back to the Horse Mansion, she will go to live in Zhuangzi outside Beijing! Raise horses and plant flowers there, put aside all the troubles of the world, and live a peaceful life.
Speaking of which, Cai Sanye should get the vase and go to the pawnshop today to prepare for a high price, right?
Xie Fuya bent the corners of her lips, and her eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of Chengyibo's Mansion.
When Cheng Song arrived downstairs, he first looked upstairs, and unexpectedly saw a beautiful woman leaning against the window and smiling from afar!
After a slight trance, Cheng Song coughed lightly and entered the teahouse, and went straight to the second floor.
Xie Fuya was calculating how the Holy Lord would cure Yibo and Cai Chengchuan if everything went well, when suddenly there was a knock on the door of the private room.
"Which one?" asked Rushi after glancing at her master.
"It's me, Cheng Song. Cheng Song simply reported his name.
"Son, please come in. Xie Fuya opened her mouth and invited Cheng Song to enter.
Cheng Song pushed open the door of the private room and entered, and smelled the rich aroma of tea and the slight heat coming to his face.
"What a coincidence, the tea has just been boiled. Xie Fuya looked at Cheng Song with a smile, then picked up the scoop and gently scooped up a spoonful of tea and poured it into the porcelain cup, and then pushed it to the seat opposite. "Please sit down and taste the tea I cooked. ”
Cheng Song walked to the table and sat down in his robe, glanced at the green tea soup in front of him, and said lightly: "I still like to drink brewed tea, and this green cooking tea is still forgotten." ”
