Chapter 71 The reason for refusing to make an appointment is treacherous
Luan Ge had just entered the pavilion, and before he could say a word to Hua Chen, he heard someone report that Mr. Shu was coming.
She wondered in her heart, didn't Shu Yang say that something was wrong? Why did this hind foot follow?
Turning his head to look at Hua Chen, he saw that not only was he not surprised, but he looked like he knew this for a long time, and got up to greet him.
Yibi on the side obviously didn't understand what was going on, and couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't Yang Cheng say that Mr. Shu had something to do?"
The voice was small, and he said it to Luan Ge, but the pavilion was not big, and a few people were not far away, so it naturally entered Hua Chen's ears. But listen to him explain:
"Mr. Shu didn't have time, but there were some problems with the official business in hand, and it was not good to delay it until tomorrow, so he sent someone to say it and came over by the way. ”
When he said this, there was a little more banter in his eyes when he looked at Luan Ge.
Don't say that you don't believe in this statement, even Luan Ge, a bystander himself, felt far-fetched when he heard this, just because Shu Yang couldn't rest assured that he came over.
But no matter what it was for, it was better not to say anything at this time, so Luan Ge pretended not to see Hua Chen's teasing.
Hua Chen invited Luan Ge over today, not for anything else, the reason why he invited Shu Yang before was because he felt that he was an elder in the end, and he was his own staff, and he might be able to see more in the decision-making of this matter, and it could be regarded as an explanation to Shu Yang.
So when he heard that Shu Yang was not coming, he was still a little disappointed; on the other hand, when he heard that Shu Yang was coming at this moment, not only did he not think much about the real reason for his coming, but he showed a little heartfelt joy to come, and the direct teacher Luan Ge couldn't see what he was thinking.
In order to prevent the heat, the time of the banquet was set late, and after everyone sat down and was polite, the sunset was already dyed in the sky, and the sunset was half sinking, revealing a bit of twilight.
The night lights on the side of the pavilion are lit up in turn, and together with the surrounding summer lotus, they reflect a harmonious and warm picture, which makes people feel a little more relieved.
Halfway through the banquet, Hua Chen finally explained the purpose of today's banquet.
"Actually, I invited Miss Luange here today to apologize for today's incident. Ah Yi had an abrupt temperament, Chen failed to protect the girl thoroughly, and even lost trust to Mr. Shu, and the tired girl went to the Marquis of Anguo's mansion. Hua Chen didn't dare to ask the girl for forgiveness, but if the girl suffered any grievances, she didn't have to hide it, she only sued Hua Chen, and she couldn't report it today, but one day, Chen would definitely ask for it back for the girl. ”
Luan Ge had also guessed on the road that Hua Chen was probably looking for him because of this matter, but he felt that if he set up a banquet for this purpose, it would be a little too grand, and it was not himself who was really wronged, but Yi Zhu, Hua Chen was in the Anguo Marquis Mansion at the time, and he should know what was going on, so he dispelled this idea.
But who would have thought that Hua Chen would regard this matter as important, but he really showed a bit of sincerity and humility, and even gave such a promise faintly, which was really a bit unexpected to her.
So Luan Ge smiled and said: "Your Royal Highness's words, Luan Ge is very emotional. However, he taught His Royal Highness to know that although the little marquis was a little arrogant, he did not do anything out of the ordinary, and in the Anguo Marquis Mansion, Luan Ge did not suffer any grievances. Having said that, helping him to see the blue wolf at the beginning was also Luan Ge's voluntariness, not anything to do with His Highness, so His Highness didn't need to take it to heart. ”
When Hua Chen heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at Luan Ge and was a little stunned.
This little girl doesn't talk much on weekdays, but judging from the way she didn't eat in Minghui Hall this morning, she knew that she was a person who had an idea in her heart and a very hard temper, who would have thought that she would say these words at this time, it really didn't seem to be polite, but Zhao Yi's kid really didn't let her be wronged.
In this way, the words that Princess Pingning said to him are really not rhetorical.
A little relieved, but also a little dazed, Hua Chen raised his glass to Luan Ge and said, "That is the case, Rong Huachen respects the girl." ”
"Please. ”
Seeing Hua Chen drink it all, Luan Ge also drank the wine in his hand in one gulp, and dipped the corner of his lips with a handkerchief.
"So, what trouble did my junior sister cause again?"
Watching the two of them say something that sounded completely unclear to them, when they were finished, Shu Yang asked.
"I forgot about it, and I also invited Mr. Shu to come over today, just to talk to Mr. about it. When Hua Chen heard this, Zhao Yi came to seek medical treatment today, Luan Ge politely refused, and later in order to help him break the siege, he promised Zhao Yi to go and see all kinds of things.
Except for the contradictions between Hua Yue and Yi Zhu, the others are all told the truth.
Luan Ge listened to it in her ears and didn't refute it, as far as she was concerned, Hua Yue didn't even know who she was, and when it came to this, all the problems stopped at Yi Zhu, so it had nothing to do with her, Hua Chen said it or not, it was his own consideration, and she didn't care.
It was Shu Yang, after listening to Hua Chen's explanation, he raised his head, looked at Luan Ge and said the first sentence: "Give me your hand." ”
Hua Chen was a little confused, and he didn't understand why Shu Yang was like this, but Luan Ge knew in his heart, and understood that Shu Yang guessed that he had used a spell, so he thought about exploring his pulse to see if there was any discomfort.
"Good. ”
Luan Ge nodded obediently, then rolled up his sleeves and calmly placed his wrist in front of Shu Yang.
At noon, when she hurriedly thought about going back to the Third Prince's Mansion, she was afraid that Shu Yang would reprimand her for this. But in the afternoon in Jishitang, Wuluo had already helped her visit once, and clearly said that it was no big deal, so she was extremely calm at this time.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Shu Yang to withdraw his fingers and say, "It's okay, it's no big deal." ”
At this moment, it was Hua Chen's turn to be confused, and he said with a little worry: "Mr. Shu will check the pulse, is there any discomfort in Miss Luange's body?"
"It's just rough, my junior sister has not been in good health since she was a child, and after taking her for a long time, she has roughly understood some medical skills, but it is only for her physique, and it is not understandable. So I heard His Royal Highness say that she went to help people watch the horses, Shu Yang suddenly remembered that he was busy with the things at hand in the past few days, and he hadn't checked her pulse, so he made this move. ”
Shu Yang said this very calmly, without the slightest hesitation of lying, not to mention Hua Chen, who did not know, even Luan Ge, who knew the reason, almost believed his statement.
Seeing that this matter had no impact on Luan Ge, Shu Yang stopped asking, but Hua Chen spoke again: "Actually, thinking about the two of you today, there is one more thing to tell Miss Luan Ge." It's about Princess Binh. ”
As soon as these words came out, Yi Bi, who had been standing behind Luan Ge and serving, suddenly shook her wrist, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes. But everyone's attention now is focused on Luan Ge, and they don't see her gaffe for a moment.
"Princess Pingning?"
Luan Ge only felt that this person sounded a little familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was, she remembered the little girl who made trouble before, but the girl's name was Hua Yue, but it was not the title of Pingning, so it was inevitable that she was a little dazed, and she didn't know where such a person appeared.
"Miss Luange hasn't seen Princess Pingning?" Hua Chen saw her confusion, and also felt that something was wrong.
"Should I have seen her?" Luan Ge frowned slightly, puzzled.
Seeing that she really didn't know, Hua Chen didn't know what to say next.
If Luan Ge had never seen Princess Pingning, then the next words would inevitably seem abrupt and unbelievable. But if she really hasn't seen it, why would Princess Pingning be interested in such a little girl as Luan Ge?
At this time, Shu Yang opened his mouth to explain: "Princess Pingning is Mrs. An Guohou, that is, the mother of Zhao Yi, the Marquis of Xiao Anguo. Although Marquis An Guohou is the identity of a concubine, the respect of the marquis is not lower than the status of a princess, so outsiders call her Mrs. Marquis Anguo, but for the royal family, it is customary to call her Princess Pingning. ”
Looking at those files in the past few days, Shu Yang has already understood the intricate relationship of the Jin Kingdom, according to his good memory, I am afraid that now he can casually point out some famous people in the court, and he can tell this person's family background and what he has done, not to mention the Anguo Marquis Mansion, which has a heavy position in the current government.
"Then I'm sure I haven't seen it. ”
Luan Ge shook his head and said: "After I entered the house, I took the car directly to the stable, and after getting off the car, I went to see the blue wolf, and then I ate, washed, and even diagnosed and treated until I left the house, and I didn't leave the backyard, and the people I saw were Zhao Yi and the little guys around him, and there were few women, let alone Princess Pingning." ”
"Then this is strange, since you haven't even seen your aunt, why did she invite you to the Hou Mansion as a guest, and said that she likes you?"
If what Luan Ge said was true, then Princess Pingning's words would be a little inexplicable, but Hua Chen thought about the situation carefully, especially the joy on Princess Pingning's face, it really didn't seem to be a lie: "Moreover, my aunt is not such a duplicitous person." ”
"This ...... Luan Ge really doesn't know......" Luan Ge glanced at Shu Yang, then looked at Hua Chen, and said: "If His Royal Highness said so, I would have remembered that I had seen Princess Pingning, but only in Mingxin Hall, when you and Princess Hua Yue and others were arguing about Yi Zhu in the house, I was relieved that Yi Zhu was not relieved, so I took Zhang Yun with me, but I only watched from afar, and then the matter was resolved, after Princess Hua Yue left, Luan Ge also left, and did not meet this Mrs. Hou. ”
"That's certainly not the reason for that. If it is Ah Yi, then it can't be - his temperament is absurd and domineering, and the words of asking for marriage are just to let you save the blue wolf, since you have cured the blue wolf, then he will definitely not mention this matter again, not to mention that when my aunt told me about it later, he rushed in directly to oppose it, which does not seem to be a lie. Hua Chen added.
For a while, there was silence in the pavilion, and the three of them looked at each other, their faces full of doubts, not understanding what kind of medicine this Princess Pingning was selling in her bones.
Yibi stood up straight, thinking of the words that Zhao Yi had bluffed her, she didn't know whether she should open her mouth or not, and she was even more afraid that the few people in front of her would see her nervousness.
At this moment, Luan Ge spoke up: "I heard what His Royal Highness Fang Cai means is that the princess just invited her kindly, and she didn't give an order directly, right?"
"What do you mean......"
Fiddling with the wine glass in his hand, Luan Ge smiled and said: "Since the little marquis doesn't want Luan Ge to enter the mansion, then I bother His Highness to use this as an excuse to help Luan Ge refuse, right? ”
Hua Chen glanced at Shu Yang, and when he saw that he didn't make a sound, he understood that he also meant this, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I will order someone to go to the Hou Mansion tomorrow with a prayer post." ”
Long before Shu Yang and Luan Ge came, Hua Chen had already thought about this problem.
The power of the Marquis of Anguo is neutral, whether it is for the Second Prince's Party or the current ******, it is a force that wants to be included only in the hands. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as you can get the support of the Marquis of Anguo, then the crown prince's position can sit firmly.
But the difficulty is that the Marquis of Anguo Mansion has always only obeyed the emperor's orders, and has never participated in party struggles.
At this time, it seems that Luan Ge is happy with Princess Pingning seems to be a good breakthrough, because An Guohou's love for his wife is well known, and a little deaf ears can achieve the effect that others can't achieve with all their efforts.
So for this matter, Hua Chen can't say that he is not moved, but in contrast, he understands the importance of Luan Ge in Shu Yang's heart, so he wants to hear his opinion.
Now it seems that Shu Yang is really unwilling, and listening to Luan Ge say this, he is afraid that there is something strange in this matter, which makes him also vigilant, so Luan Ge's refusal, he accepted it immediately, and promised to resign tomorrow.
The matter was over, the three of them reached a unified opinion, and they said something idlely, seeing that it was getting late, Luan Ge got up to say goodbye.
After a busy day today, I have been tired for a long time, and I have only reached the halfway point of the banquet, which is the extreme. Hua Chen also saw the tired look on her face, so she didn't stop it, and sent Luan Ge back to Xiangju with the people around her.
It was Shu Yang, after staying, he had a few drinks with Hua Chen before he spoke:
"Regarding the affairs of the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion, Shu Yang still has something to say to His Royal Highness. ”
"Sir, are you talking about today's events?" Hua Chen said in his heart, sure enough, Shu Yang didn't seem to care about it, but he was afraid that the real plan was still to come.
It seems that the weight of his junior sister in his heart is really not ordinary.
However, Shu Yang shook his head and said, "It's not today's matter, but about the file that His Highness gave me, some records about the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion." ”
Hua Chen was a little stunned, and suddenly remembered that the reason why Fang Cai's maid came over to pass the legend that Shu Yang went to the banquet today was because he had encountered some problems in his official business and wanted to discuss with him.
"Are you saying that there is really a problem with the Marquis of Anguo?" (To be continued.) )
