Chapter 5 Mr. Plain
Chapter 5
Mr. Plain
After listening to Wang Wu's report, Mr. Murong already knew in his heart that he was deciding right and wrong. Even, from Wang Wu's own words alone, Mr. Murong had already expected that this little gong was not simple. The perfect story left this flaw alone, and it was still discovered by the royal house. If perfection can be achieved, but only a flaw is left behind, then this flaw must also be an indispensable part of achieving true perfection.
"Sir, you see, when is it better to use this little gong as an excuse to drive away?" Wang Wu saw that Murong Shuo didn't speak, but he didn't refute his meaning, so he asked.
"How old is she?" Murong Shuo didn't answer Wang Wu's words immediately, but just suddenly asked.
"How big? But he doesn't look like he's fourteen or fifteen years old. She's so thin that her wrist is no bigger than my finger. Wang Wu recalled the feeling he felt when he pulled the small gong and walked, and stretched out his hand to gesticulate.
"Children of poor families are certain to be thin. Murong Shuo nodded, not surprised at all, "She shouldn't have rested yet, right?" I'll go see her." ”
"It shouldn't have stopped yet, and the housekeeper should find someone to help her freshen up first. I'll take you there. Wang Wu thought about it and estimated the time. Seeing Murong Shuo nodding, he should lead the way first and take Murong Shuo to Xiaogong.
There are too many children from poor families rescued by the prince, what is the process when he enters the mansion, and he is already familiar with this guard. In this mansion, there are more than a dozen people who he helped bring into the mansion for resettlement. Therefore, he knows best when and where they should be in the new subordinates.
However, Murong Shuo was the prince's guest in the end, and others naturally couldn't match him. This Qingfeng courtyard alone is a separate courtyard, and it is more than three miles away from the main hall where the prince lives. Even if you take a shortcut, you have to open a few doors that have long been locked. Wang Wu went to look for him from the main mansion, but he walked a long way from the periphery. Although Xiaogong is in the lower room, she is a girl, and her living is naturally within the inner perimeter. If it weren't for Mr. Murong coming in person, who would dare to open the door and let the man in at this time.
But Murong Shuo is not the kind of person who completely ignores the rules. So, the door was open, but he didn't go in. Instead, please ask the grandmother who opened the door to be tired and ask Xiaogong to come out to see him. Since it was Mr. Murong's order, and there was no need to let him in, it would be difficult to explain it later, how could Mama be afraid of being so tired. Of course, he smiled and agreed to call Xiaogong out.
After a while, while his hair was still wet, he hastily pulled a small gong with a fallen horse bun, and trotted out with Mama.
It's time to put your acting skills to the test!
I saw Xiao Gong lowering his head, first asking for peace from the Wang Wu he knew, and then approaching Murong Shuo, he couldn't help but secretly glance sideways at him, and quickly lowered his head and asked him to say goodbye in a proper manner: "Xiao Gong has seen Gongzi." ”
Murong Shuo looked at the little gong with his head down, didn't speak, just looked at the grandmother behind her and said, "I don't know if the grandmother can make a place to speak, there are some things, I want to ask this little gong girl carefully." ”
"Sir's words are serious, slaves and maids will clean up, please go this way. "As soon as Mama heard that it was Mr. Murong's request, how dare she not do it, even if she has no place, she must immediately clean up a place. Busy led them to the hut in the corner of the porch.
It is the place where the food is served and distributed on weekdays, not far from the door, and it is locked together with the inner door at night. The lady who opened the door happened to have the key in her hand. The place is on the periphery, which is naturally very convenient.
The room is not big, but it is neatly packed. Although it is a place where vegetables are served, there is no peculiar smell, and fresh flowers and fruits are placed in it every day, but there is still a faint floral and fruity fragrance. This is His Royal Highness the Prince's sympathy for his subordinates. These fruits are not for the sake of looking good, but for the busy people who have not yet had time to eat. In winter, it is replaced by hot tea and snacks.
If there is more of this flower in one place, then it will naturally have to be deleted elsewhere. Since this idea was proposed by the prince, the item of thrift was naturally also from the prince. The rules that should have been applied to the prince's meals were also reduced by half by him, and all the half points saved were given to the people in the palace.
Although this originated from the queen's teachings back then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still persevered, so how could he not be loved by everyone in the mansion. Although some people secretly say that he is stupid behind his back, or buy people's hearts, this does not prevent the prince from being good at governing with virtue.
Having lived in the Prince's Mansion for so many years, Murong Shuo certainly knew what this place was. If Mama hadn't thought of this at the time, he was going to ask Mama for the key and take Xiaogong there. Mama opened the door, went in and tidied up a little, and invited them in. She closed the door of the courtyard for the time being.
After being in the house for so long, what she knows best is to observe words and feelings. Although I don't know what Mr. Murong is looking for this little gong. But before, Mr. Murong had also personally ordered to deal with a few ill-intentioned people. If this little gong is like this, then even if Mr. Murong doesn't explain, she won't let her go easily. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so kind to everyone that she will never allow anyone to betray the Prince!
As soon as Mama left, only Murong Shuo, Xiaogong and Wang Wu were left in the room. Xiao Gong didn't know why he was suddenly called out, and his nervous hands and feet didn't know where to swing. But he was still calm, and he kept his head down and followed quietly, waiting for the son he met for the first time to speak.
Murong Shuo entered the room, and by the candlelight lit by Mama when she was leaving, he stared at the little gong without saying a word. But because Xiao Gong kept his head down and couldn't see her eyes, Murong Shuo couldn't see too much. However, it is also a way to dry her for a while and let her be pressured not to admit herself. It's just that Murong Shuo also knows that this kind of trick can't deal with her at all.
After pausing for a while, Murong Shuo finally spoke: "You raise your head, that glance just now shouldn't be enough for you to see me clearly." ”
"What, what...... Yes, Childe. Xiao Gong couldn't help but shudder, and slowly raised his head obediently.
Originally, with his head down, he could only see the corner of the solid color Tsing Yi shirt of the person opposite, but as he looked up, the image of the son opposite gradually became clear. I saw that the man was dressed in a light blue dark coat, with wide sleeves and wide sleeves, and there were no accessories around his waist except for the dark belt. Looking at the edges of the lines, they were all white, "Could it be that this person is also like himself, and his parents are dead?" Xiao Gong thought to himself, unconsciously giving birth to a sense of sympathy. I'm not so afraid of this sudden visit. On the contrary, her waist, which had been hunched up, was much straighter.
With this, her gaze also rose all of a sudden, and she saw that this son not only had no accessories around his waist, but even used a wooden hairpin to tie his hair. Xiao Gong's eyes widened in surprise, and he couldn't believe that this person who was so respectfully called Mr. by the housekeeper could be dressed so plainly!
