Chapter 347: The Scene of the Crime
"The Queen Mother is also here, what the hell is going on?" Gu Zhirong was inexplicable, turned around and glanced at the three maids behind him, everyone seemed to be as confused as the second monk.
"The Queen Mother is here too?" Gu Wenxin, who was still calm, couldn't help but become a little nervous, looked at Gu Zhirong with a little panicked, and called out for help, "Sister Rong, what can I do?"
Gu Zhirong gently shook her hand: "Don't panic, don't panic at this time." The queen mother came later, what is this, anyway, you are looking at the prince, not her, what are you nervous about!"
Gu Wenxin thought about it, but she was still nervous: "Sister Rong, what the hell is going on? Why did the Queen Mother come to this Hanging Ji Temple, and the officials and eunuchs in the capital all went out, not only that, but they all flocked to the Hanging Ji Temple, just to see the true face of the Queen Mother?"
Mingyue on the side whispered: "Miss Wenxin, you don't have to be nervous, this queen mother rarely goes out to worship the Buddha on weekdays, so this time she actually came with the prince, of course, it will cause a small sensation." As for the fact that so many eunuchs and family members came, most of them came to appease the Queen Mother. ”
Of course, Mingyue still has a layer of meaning that she didn't say, that is the real purpose of the Queen Mother's trip.
This Gu Zhirong also knew.
Therefore, sometimes, Gu Zhirong felt that this queen mother was really hard, she was so old, and she had to saddle a horse and work hard, and she ran to this remote Hangji Temple, and the sedan chair couldn't go up, and she had to move up step by step with a cane, a person of such an age. Tired and panting, it's really choking.
And the purpose of this is just to draw a red line for the subjects below. In all dynasties, this marriage is also the privilege of the Queen Mother.
It seems that the ladies of the official eunuch houses in the capital have already received the wind, so they are all dressed up so fancy, not to see the true face of the Queen Mother at all, but to see their faces.
That being the case, it is only right that the Queen Mother should be allowed to see her sister Wenxin's beauty.
Gu Zhirong was thinking about it, when suddenly the green water next to her tugged at her sleeve. He said in a low voice: "Miss, look, why is the fourth miss here too?"
Gu Zhirong looked in the direction pointed by the green water, and sure enough. The figure of the fourth young lady Gu Yuanqin appeared at the entrance of the side hall not far away, obviously arriving a long time ago.
"This time it's really lively, all the young girls from the Yuanning Marquis Mansion have arrived. Gu Zhirong thought it was very funny.
The second lady was summoned by the Hou Ye of Wumu Hou's Mansion, and the fourth lady came over on her own initiative. And themselves. It was to escort Gu Wenxin over. Not only that, all the official eunuchs in the capital, from the first-grade prime minister's mansion to the countless girls of the seven-rank county order family, have also poured out, it seems that there must be a good show this time.
Gu Zhirong thought to himself, since the Queen Mother is here to be old and draw the red line. Then you might as well let her take a look at Gu Wenxin, her old man's future granddaughter-in-law. So she turned sideways. said to Gu Wenxin beside him: "Sister Wenxin, this time the Queen Mother came to Xuanji Temple, you see how many ladies from the official eunuch family are vying to perform in front of the Queen Mother, you are also smart, look at the opportunity to behave in front of the Queen Mother." ”
When Gu Wenxin heard this, he immediately became nervous: "Performance, how should I behave?"
Gu Zhirong thought to himself, it was time for the young master to come at this time, right? Last night, if he listened to her proposal, then something would definitely happen today.
"Do you know water?" Gu Zhirong asked.
Gu Wenxin shook his head.
"That's good. Gu Zhirong smiled, "It won't be the best." ”
Her eyes rolled, she shrunk her neck, and looked at Gu Wenxin's cloak: "Sister Wenxin, I'm so cold, maybe I caught a cold last night, and I rushed over today, and I didn't add an extra piece of clothing." My cloak is too thin to keep warm, can you lend me your cloak to keep out the cold?"
Gu Wenxin was wearing a dark green Doluo silver fox cloak, which was much warmer than the colorful silk stone blue and silver rat cloak that Gu Zhirong was wearing.
Gu Wenxin didn't say a word, he took off the cloak on his body and handed it to Gu Zhirong: "Quickly change it, you should suffer if you catch a cold later." ”
Gu Zhirong took it with a smile, and then untied his cloak and let Gu Wenxin put it on.
Mingyue glanced at her young lady worriedly: "Miss, are you really unwell?"
Since Miss Beat has been dying since she came back from Fanjiang, her body is not as good as before, and she doesn't seem to be able to withstand the wind and cold as before, so Mingyue is very worried.
Gu Zhirong smiled at Mingyue and gave her a reassuring smile: "I'm fine, I just feel a little cold, and when I get to the side hall, Master Xun Mingkong wants to make sure that the ginger soup is boiled hot and drink." ”
Mingyue took a closer look at her again, and saw that she was really fine, so she was relieved.
Entering the side hall, there were already a lot of people sitting inside, and sure enough, they were all girls from official eunuchs, from thirteen or fourteen to seventeen or eighteen years old, all of them were like flowers that had just bloomed, and they were youthful. Some of them sat quietly, listening to the movements around them, and some of them whispered in twos and threes, and when they saw Gu Zhirong and the others coming in, they all raised their heads, took a look, and smiled tacitly.
Gu Zhirong found a place, called Lushui and others to fetch a cushion, and placed Gu Wenxin to sit down. Then, she found a stall and called the green water out.
Outside the side hall, Gu Zhirong commanded in a low voice: "Green water, you will make a way to let Sister Wenxin fall into the water later, and I will arrange the next things." ”
"Did you push her into the water?" Lu Shui was inexplicable, "Why? Miss Wenxin is dressed so beautifully today, if she falls into the water......"
Green Water looked dazed, no, rather, shocked.
"Just do what I say, she'll hold a grudge against me then, but she'll thank me then. Gu Zhirong smiled proudly, "Of course, she must fall into the water in front of the prince." ”
Green water is even more puzzling.
Gu Zhirong pointed to the cloak on his body: "Do you know why I exchanged cloaks with Sister Wenxin?"
Lu Shui stared at the cloak that Gu Zhirong was wearing, and then thought about the colorful silk stone blue and silver rat cloak that was now draped on Gu Wenxin's body, and suddenly realized: "Miss, that cloak is not a ...... given by His Royal Highness the Prince?"
One day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't know which nerve was wrongly wired, and actually sent three cloaks to the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, the second miss, the fourth miss and one herself, her one was the colorful silk stone blue and silver rat cloak, but she never wanted to wear it, so she had been putting it at the bottom of the cage, and now she suddenly took it out to wear, of course, there was another arrangement.
Lu Shui said in a low voice: "Miss wants to fulfill the prince and Miss Wenxin?"
Gu Zhirong nodded.
She knows that the crown prince has a noble status, has read countless people, and is fat and thin, he has not only seen thousands, but he is indifferent by nature and not close to women, how can he be easily tempted?
If he makes a little use of his psychology and makes him mistakenly think that he has fallen into the water, he will not die without saving him when there is no other person at the scene, right? No matter who is rescued, he will always be responsible for the innocence of the girl.
When she came up with this plan, she really thanked the prince for choosing such a good place as Hangji Temple. She has lived in this place for three years, and she is very familiar with every plant and tree here, and how can she not know which place is the best crime scene? )
