Chapter 244: Managing things and provoking troubles, and coping strategies
Fu Rongyue froze her footsteps, squinted her eyes and looked closely, looking at the back, it was a little familiar, vaguely Yuan Qingdai, who had just come to see her in the afternoon.
Seeing Fu Rongyue stop, Yao Yuan naturally stopped, he looked back, and soon saw the figure, suddenly, Yao Yuan became a little at a loss, his words seemed panicked, and he scolded in a low voice: "This Yuan Qingdai, why do you want to come over at this time?"
"Does she come often?" Fu Rongyue frowned.
This sentence made Yao Yuan nod his head, nor did he shake his head, and he said to him: "Yes...... Ah, no, princess, although Yuan Qingdai often comes over, Her Royal Highness has never let her into the house, and our Highness has absolutely no idea about her. โ
"Let's go. Fu Rongyue smiled faintly and took the lead to leave.
Yao Yuan was a little stunned by her reaction like this, and stayed in place for a moment before scratching his head and quickly following.
After Yao Yuan left, Fu Rongyue returned to his courtyard, and his expression was not as calm as just now. She instructed Lu Qiao: "You go to inquire about Yuan Qingdai during the day, you know the specific situation, but what others say is better than what you see with your own eyes, you go and check what the origin of this person is." โ
"Her origin should be clear, otherwise, His Highness is afraid that he will not keep her by his side. The pothos was a little strange when she heard it: "Does the princess think something is wrong?"
"Well, I always think she's weird, and I can't say it. Fu Rongyue recalled carefully, but still couldn't tell where that doubt came from.
Lu Qiao didn't ask any more questions, and seeing her resolute expression, she quickly went down to do it.
The northwest is no better than the capital, this hour is already so dark that you can't see your fingers, and the cold wind outside the house is more severe than it sounds in the daytime. After Fu Rongyue washed up, she only felt that the cold was a little heavier than during the day, and she hurriedly shrank into the quilt. On the first night of coming to the northwest, there was naturally no way to adapt, although not to say that it was difficult to sleep after tossing and turning.
finally fell asleep, and after squinting for a while, she heard the green pothos gently shake her and said, "Princess, Your Highness went to the barracks to inspect today, and just sent someone over to deliver the message, is the princess going with you?"
"Not necessarily. Fu Rongyue shook her head in a daze: "If you are in a hurry, it will backfire, let His Highness go by himself." โ
"Good. Seeing that she was sleepy, the green pothos couldn't bear to disturb her, so she covered the quilt for her and went lightly.
Fu Rongyue slept until noon, and then felt much better, and called Mei Shan to bring in some hot water.
Soon, Mei Shan brought hot water in, and the people who were chattering in the past were extremely quiet today, and they kept their heads down and waited, without saying a word.
Fu Rongyue still felt strange, when she looked up, she saw that her eyes were red and swollen, her expression seemed to be crying, and she looked like an angry little daughter-in-law.
"What's the matter, who bullied you?" Fu Rongyue suddenly sank her face when she saw this.
The girls in her courtyard also often make trouble, and the green pothos and others will join forces to bully Mei Shan, and Mei Shan has not been angry and cried. But if it was really the girls in the yard who bullied Mei Shan, she was afraid that she would have already shouted her grievances as soon as she entered the door.
Mei Shan's big eyes shone with water again, bit her lower lip tightly, shook her head and said, "Sister Luluo won't let the slave tell the princess." โ
"I asked, it has nothing to do with you, you say. Fu Rongyue hummed and handed her a handkerchief: "Wipe your tears and speak slowly." โ
A trace of hesitation flashed on Mei Shan's face, and after a while, she finally said: "The slave gets up early every day, and when she got up to practice this morning, she saw it...... See ......"
"What did you see?" Fu Rongyue couldn't help but become more and more curious when she saw that she wanted to speak and stopped.
Mei Shan gritted her teeth: "The slave maid saw that Yuan Qingdai came out of His Highness's courtyard, her hair was scattered, it seems that she spent the night at His Highness's place last night." After speaking, she seemed to be unable to hold back any longer, and cried with a wow: "Woo, the slave doesn't want to say it, and the princess will be sad again." But, but ...... How could His Royal Highness treat the princess like this? He obviously liked the princess very much, and before he came to the northwest, he liked the princess so much......
Fu Rongyue's mind was blank for a moment, she couldn't tell what it felt, a dull pain spread in the bottom of her heart, she only felt that her hands and feet were sore, and she wanted to sit down and never get up again.
It's just that seeing Mei Shan crying so sadly, as if this was a thing like the sky falling, she felt a little distressed, stepped forward and hugged her gently: "Fool, don't cry, things may not be like this." โ
"Mei Shan!" As he was talking, he suddenly heard a loud shout outside the house, and Lu Luo came in from outside with a new dress, put down his clothes and scolded: "Who allowed you to tell the princess!"
"So, is this true?" Fu Rongyue was awakened by her voice, and she was calm, and she was already thinking about it.
A hint of anger flashed on the pothos face: "That's not the case, princess. The slave maid also heard about Yuan Qingdai's stay in His Royal Highness's courtyard last night, and the slave maid specially went to inquire, this Yuan Qingdai is not a good thing, she deliberately released this kind of news this morning, just to let the princess know. In fact, last night Chimeng raided our two camps outside the city, and many generals were drunk, so His Royal Highness left the Imperial Palace overnight and rushed to the camp to deal with military affairs, and he was not in the courtyard at all. She is so ill-intentioned, she just wants the princess to misunderstand, it's really scheming!"
Fu Rongyue felt that her heartstrings were loosened after hearing this, and she was immediately very embarrassed.
Could it be because he had a conflict with Wei Mingxi last night, and he started to fight all the trees?
If it is placed on weekdays, Yuan Qingdai's little trick, she is afraid that she will understand that there is another hidden meaning if she doesn't think about it, right?
It's just that where did Yuan Qingdai know that she had a conflict with Wei Mingxi and took the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole?
Fu Rongyue took a deep breath and sat down slowly, making her thoughts completely clear. Holding a cup of tea in her hand, the fragrance of hot tea permeated her lips and teeth, and her eyes became clear.
It was Mei Shan, who suddenly heard the truth, and a pair of eyes immediately radiated brilliance, swept away the decadence just now, and became excited. But he soon scolded Yuan Qingdai again: "It's so shameless, Yuan Qingdai can't wait to send it to His Highness's house! His Highness is not there, she has to make such a move, it's really shameless!"
"Everyone in the courtyard knows about this, right?" Fu Rongyue raised her eyes, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Green pothos nodded: "I basically know it." โ
"Then how many people know about His Highness's departure a long time ago?" Fu Rongyue's smile deepened a little.
Lu Luo shook his head: "His Royal Highness left under the escort of Escort Yao and General Fu, and there are no more than ten people who know about it." โ
"Good. Fu Rongyue tapped lightly on the table and said slowly, "When will His Highness come back?"
"If the military situation is urgent, I am afraid it will take two or three days to come back. Didn't His Highness ask someone to pick up the princess this morning? It can be seen that this time the matter is tricky, and His Highness has to stay there for a few more days. "Pothos strips are the analysis of the Tao.
"Then let Yuan Qingdai toss for a few days. Fu Rongyue stood up and stretched: "When His Highness comes back, let's clean her up again, and do one thing by the way." โ
Pothos's eyes flashed: "What does the princess mean, do you want to take this opportunity to uproot the fine work in the house?"
"Clever!" Fu Rongyue smiled faintly: "Yuan Qingdai wouldn't know that His Highness had gone out for no reason, so someone must have told her the news." The military situation is secret, if this person has no means, how can he know? Even if he knew, why did he reveal it to Yuan Qingdai and let her sow discord in the Imperial Protector's Mansion? If this person is not a meticulous worker, I don't believe it. โ
When Mei Shan heard this, she suddenly realized, and she was very excited: "Princess, do this kind of thing and let the slave go!"
"Okay!" Fu Rongyue sighed helplessly, seeing that there were still teardrops on her white and tender face, her appearance was simply funny, and she couldn't help laughing: "Look at you, the puppy pees, crying and laughing!"
"Huh?" Mei Shan exclaimed, covering her face and running away in embarrassment.
Luluo paused, and then said: "Princess, if there is really a fine work in the mansion, I am afraid that this Chimeng raid is also the handiwork of this person, right?"
So many generals were drunk, and they were all secretly sent back to the mansion, but I didn't expect the news to leak.
Fu Rongyue frowned: "That's not likely." I'm afraid that it was done by the people of the court, do you think, Your Highness set up a banquet to welcome me, and the generals got drunk at the banquet, if you lose the city because of this, Your Majesty will blame, who will suffer first? Isn't it Your Highness and me? It's not terrible, it's the thoughts of the master behind him!"
"What is the princess going to do?" Lu Pothos pondered for a moment before saying, "If the princess doesn't react at all, I'm afraid Yuan Qingdai won't believe it, right?"
"Whatever result she wants, we will give her whatever result!" Fu Rongyue smiled deeply: "Anyway, we won't suffer." โ
She told her plan, only listened to the pothos and nodded: "Okay, the slave will do it." โ
"Remember, if you don't show traces, it's best to let Yuan Qingdai know alone. Fu Rongyue commanded again.
Luluo looked back and smiled: "Don't worry, princess!"
Fu Rongyue looked sideways at the window, and naturally she couldn't see the reaction of the people outside through the courtyard wall, but she was looking forward to the next life!
After a while, the green pothos turned around: "The news has been spread, let's go to the back garden in a while, and Yuan Qingdai will definitely follow." โ
"Okay, get ready, let's go to the back garden after lunch - for a walk!" Fu Rongyue smiled slyly: "Now the cold wind is cold, I heard that the Duhu Mansion is the only place in the entire northwest where there are plum blossoms, so let's brave the cold to enjoy the plum blossoms, which is also a fun thing." โ
The pothos covered her mouth and smiled: "The slave maid thinks that it is not as fun to appreciate the flowers as it is to appreciate the beauty." โ
The master and servant looked at each other and laughed out loud.
