157 It's too presumptuous, and it's annoying
In front of the gilded Buddha statue, Concubine Guo is kneeling on the futon, her hands folded with Buddha beads, and she closes her eyes and recites the scriptures silently.
"Concubine, concubine......"
Mama Yu crossed the threshold, and the panic on her face was even worse.
"What's all the fuss?"
Sitting on the futon, Concubine Guo frowned and opened her eyes.
"Lord Cheng Yuan has found it!" Mama Yu's tone trembled slightly because of her panic.
Moreover, the palms of the concubine's closed hands also trembled suddenly.
The Buddha bead in his hand then fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
"What did you say?" she turned her head to look at Mama Jade to the side in disbelief, her eyes shocked and incredulous as never before.
How could he possibly find it?
Mama Yu hurriedly said: "General Cheng is outside the gate of the nunnery at this time......"
In front of Cheng Yuan, if she didn't try her best to cover it up, she didn't know what flaws she would have to expose.
It's not that she's too uncalm, but that this matter is very involved, and the slightest carelessness will cause a catastrophe...... The result wasn't even what she could have imagined!
This Jingyun Nunnery seems to be quiet, but secretly I don't know how many ears and eyes are staring closely!
This Cheng general...... Why did you find it without saying a word?
"Can he explain his intentions?" the concubine forced herself to compose, but a layer of cold sweat oozed from her forehead, which was as smooth as jade.
"General Cheng said that he was looking for the concubine to find the chess book...... "Mama Yu shook her head and said: "The concubine doesn't have to worry too much, the slave and maid look at him, it should be a ...... who doesn't know the inside story yet."
When the concubine heard this, the expression in her eyes was uncertain.
And she said...... How could he possibly know?
The heart that suddenly fell into the emptiness didn't know whether it was more fortunate or more unclear and abrupt.
"You don't have to panic. She had regained her composure and said to Mama Yu, "Just go and reject him." So that he doesn't have to bother anymore. ”
Mama Yu is still worried: "If the people in the palace know about ......"
"It shouldn't be so coincidental......" Concubine Guo took a deep breath and shook her head slightly: "Don't care about those, let's take a step at a time." ”
Mama Yu could only respond with a trembling "yes". Hang your head and quit.
It is better to send it as early as possible.
The longer you delay, the more likely you are to be noticed.
"He is too sharp by nature to be an ordinary person, and the description you just made must not be revealed in front of him again-" Otherwise, I am afraid that there is nothing abnormal in the palace, but he will see the clues.
Mama Yu, who had retreated to the threshold, was about to turn around, and when she heard the concubine's words, she secretly clenched her palms, and answered "yes" concentratingly.
……
Cheng Yuan felt a little confused.
After the mother who went to pass the word came back. The door didn't open, so I said a word of rejection to him through the door panel, and then bolted the door directly......
He stood outside the door for a few moments. Looking at the two closed wooden doors in front of me, I was a little confused.
Originally, if I wanted to persuade the concubine to give up the chess game to me, I didn't have a chance to say half a word.
I didn't even see each other.
Do you think he's too presumptuous?
Cheng Yuan calmed down and thought about it for a moment, and felt that this should be the problem.
It's true that he was too inconsiderate.
But beyond that. He really couldn't think of a way.
He stood silent for a moment. After all, he sighed and rode away.
This concubine's temperament is really hard enough.
That's it.
……
Feng Jiwen also felt a little confused.
She had just finished lunch here, and she heard the maid's announcement that the jade grandmother in Jingyun Nunnery had come over.
Feng Jiwen hurriedly asked Mama Yu to come in.
Looking at the jade grandmother who was dressed in a plain brown gown, carrying a fence and a burden in her hand, Feng Jiwen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
How do you look like you're running away from home?
Looking at Mama Yu in such a cover-up outfit, she intuitively felt a little uneasy, and immediately asked, "Why did Mama come here suddenly?"
This is the first time that Mama Yu has come back to look for her. She couldn't afford not to think about it.
"The concubine is all good. Mama Yu handed the burden to Feng Jiwen and said directly: "This is the chess game that Master Cheng wants." ”
Feng Jiwen took the thing with a somewhat stunned expression.
What does this mean?
"Mrs. Lao and Mrs. Cheng will hand it over. said that the concubine saw that he sincerely wanted this chess game, so she gave it to him. Mama Yu said expressionlessly.
Feng Jiwen was surprised when she heard this.
The concubine actually wants to give this chess game to Master Cheng?
Why!
She was jealous.
It's not that she cares about the game itself, but she also expressed her desire for it, but the concubine refused to ignore her in every way.
In the end, he had to give it to Cheng Shibo, who he didn't know, in vain.
In addition to some different vinegar intentions, Feng Jiwen felt more strange.
This behavior is really not like the character of the concubine.
"Why did the concubine suddenly want to give the chess game to Cheng Shibo?" asked Feng Jiwen to Mama Yu.
There has to be a reason, right?
I really want to send it, when she went to pass the word that day, why didn't she see a loose mouth?
Could it be that after thinking about it for a while, thinking about General Cheng's prestige, he had a little admiration, so he changed his mind?
Well, if the concubine knew that she was so speculative about her, she would have to pick up that feather duster again.
"General Cheng went to Jingyun Nunnery today. Mama Yu described succinctly: "The concubine feels too presumptuous and annoying. In order to prevent him from disturbing again, the concubine had no choice but to give up the chess game to cut off his thoughts. ”
Feng Jiwen: "......"
It's too presumptuous, and it's annoying......
I really didn't expect that Cheng Shibo would go to Jingyun Nunnery in person after being rejected.
The co-authored concubine was unbearable to be harassed, so she had to make concessions as a last resort?
This plot is really unfolding by God......
Mama Yu confessed again: "The matter of the concubine giving the chess game to General Cheng is a little inappropriate to spread out. Remember not to talk to anyone about it with Mrs. He—this should also be conveyed to General Cheng so that he should not publicize it wantonly. ”
Wanton publicity?
This word is used, it seems that no matter how you listen to it, there is a sense of déjà vu in Heicheng Shibo?
The bad guy is also a first-class loyal and brave man. It has its own ethics, and he got this chess game from the former emperor's concubine, so why can't he be guilty of wantonly publicizing it with others, right?
Feng Jiwen's expression changed several times, and an indescribable sense of strangeness emerged in her heart.
She always felt that the concubine was a little 'indulgent' towards Cheng Shibo.
I don't want him to bother, just throw a bad word...... Just the concubine's mouth, is there anyone she can't scold back?
By the way, there's ......
"As far as I know. Cheng Shibo will leave Beijing tomorrow to return to Yunnan to take office, and he shouldn't be able to bother the concubine much......" She felt that she needed to remind: "Do you want to give him this chess game?"
She swears. This is definitely not dragging Shibo back!
is afraid that if the concubine learns about it in the future, she will hate her elbow for giving away her beloved things for nothing.
People don't die for themselves, she really has to plan for her future net worth.
Unexpectedly, Mama Yu listened and said, "Just send it, so that he won't come to Beijing to entangle him when he returns to Beijing in the future——"
If you can, don't see each other again.
In the face of that terrible consequence. A chess game is nothing.
Feng Jiwen heard this. It's hard to say anything more.
This kind of thing, the emphasis is on one being willing to fight and one willing to suffer.
But until Mama Yu left, the strange feeling in Feng Jiwen's heart had not been eliminated.
Xiao Cha said with some disappointment: "I see that Master Cheng is upright and a hero, how can he do such a cheeky thing?"
The concubine didn't even say that she would give it to the chess book, and he even came to the door to force him personally.
He is a well-known governor of Yunnan. The power is so great, can the concubine not be afraid?
Replace her ...... She's scared too.
The corners of Feng Jiwen's mouth twitched when she heard this. But he didn't know how to defend Cheng Yuan.
Thinking that he was going to leave Beijing tomorrow, he didn't dare to delay the concubine's entrustment, so he immediately asked Xiaocha to call Liu Quan over.
"Send this thing to Uncle Zhongyong's mansion, be sure to hand it over to Cheng Shibo in person, and then say to him: The person who sent the thing does not want this matter to be known to outsiders. She instructed Liu Quan.
Although Liu Quan felt a little strange, he didn't ask a word, and after taking over the burden, he only responded respectfully: "The slave has written it down, please rest assured." ”
Feng Jiwen nodded and motioned for him to go.
However, Liu Quan was about to withdraw, but he heard Feng Jiwen suddenly think of something and called out to him.
"Does the lady have any other orders?"
"I forgot to tell you that this thing is what the other party wants to resell to Cheng Shibo, and if he really wants it, he can give a hundred taels of silver. Feng Jiwen casually said a number.
Although a hundred taels of silver is a lot, if it is too low, it is not enough to reach the rare Cheng dù of this chess book, and I am afraid that no one will believe it if I say it in the future.
One hundred taels of silver is nothing to Cheng Shibo.
Liu Quan has no doubt about him.
"Let's go back quickly. ”
"Yes, the minion is gone. ”
After Liu Quan left, Xiaoxian couldn't help but say: "Mrs. is really exquisite. ”
Although the concubine gave the chess game to Master Cheng under such circumstances, they knew nothing about it, and it would not be passed on if there was no accident. But in the future, if something goes wrong and someone uses it to play, there will be big trouble-
But the wife made a small trick out of it, and it was very different.
The innocent resale transaction of one hundred taels for a chess game is a completely different concept from private teaching.
Feng Jiwen didn't say anything after hearing this, only took a sip of hot tea.
The concubine and General Cheng are both very old, but they can't spoil their reputation on such trivial matters.
Xiaocha couldn't help but look at Feng Jiwen with admiration.
"My wife is really wealthy. ”
General Cheng will leave Beijing tomorrow morning, and he will not have a chance to verify with the concubine, so this hundred taels will easily fall into the pocket of her wife.
This mind is simply unconvincing!
How could she not have thought of it?
Feng Jiwen almost squirted out a mouthful of tea when she heard this.
Does this girl really have anything else in her head besides money?!
"......" Xiaoxian couldn't help but glance at Xiaocha with a strange gaze.
……
Jin Wuxi sinks, and the sun shines all over the sky.
He Shen didn't come back alone today.
Instead, there was a Yijiang by his side.
The two of them didn't know what they had to talk about, so they went straight into the outer study when they returned to the house.
But He Shen still didn't forget to let Huzi go to Chunyuan to spread a message and inform Feng Jiwen that he was back.
"Look at you like this, you really look more and more like a strict wife. Yi Jiang'a shook his head and sat down, and said, "Is this still the brother I knew at the beginning?"
He Shen only smiled when he heard this, and he didn't argue, and went straight to the point: "Tell me what you've found." ”
Yi Jiang'a also stopped joking with him, and informed He Shen of all the news he had found.
He Shen nodded after hearing this, and a look of thought appeared in his eyes.
At this moment, there was a few knocks on the door of the study from the outside.
He Shen said the word "enter".
He thought it was Liu Quan, but it was a red heart holding a tea tray.
When the slave heard that the uncle was meeting guests in the study, she made a pot of hot tea and brought it over. Red Heart said with a smile, swinging his waist as he walked.
Yi Jiang'a had often come to the house as a guest before, and he recognized her, so he smiled when he heard the words: "The girl of hearts is really heartfelt, and she has worked hard." ”
"This is the slave's business. Red Peach smiled and placed the tea tray on the tea table between the two, and poured the two tea cups half full.
"Uncle, please use tea. She picked up one of them and handed it to He Shen.
He Shen looked at the teacup with a smile and said, "Let's put it first." ”
The smile on the heart condensed slightly, and then he immediately answered the "yes" and put the teacup back on the tea table.
Yi Jiang'a glanced at He Shen with his eyelids and laughed inexplicably.
And the red hearts who came to deliver tea did not show signs of retreating after delivering tea, but stood aside.
The business of Zuo Heshen and Yi Jiang'a has been finished, and she has no delay on the side.
Yi Jiang Ah chatted while eating tea: "Lord Ming Cheng and Lord Gui will leave Beijing together, do you want to go and see each other off with my brother?"
"A few days ago, I invited Cheng Shibo to come to my house as a guest to say goodbye, and tomorrow there will be many people, so I won't go, so as not to make people feel that he is deliberately inviting people's eyes and ears. He Shen said with a smile.
"Then if you don't go, I'll go. Yi Jiang'a leaned on the back of his chair and said, "I'm going to join in the fun and have a long experience." ”
He likes to join in the fun on weekdays, but in fact, he is keen to get acquainted with all kinds of people, so that he can get a lot of information that others can't get in the gossip or gossip.
At this time, the red hearts standing on the side didn't know what they thought, their eyes moved left and right, and suddenly interjected: "The slave maid also heard that this time Lord Ah Gui left Beijing this time and brought the young master Na Yancheng from Ah Gui's mansion with him!"
"Oh?" He Shen said casually when he heard this: "That day, the prince of Na Yan Cheng came to visit Xi Zhai, but I never heard him mention it. ”
"Uncle doesn't know, it's not that Young Master Yancheng didn't mention it. Red Peach said with a smile: "At that time, the uncle and Master Cheng went to the study to play chess, and when the second master went back to the room to change the medicine, the slave maid listened to the son of Yan Cheng and his wife talk about it." Na Yancheng also said that he came here to say goodbye to his wife——"
That's a lot of fun. (To be continued.) )
