Chapter 538: Means
After obtaining the consent of Ru Niang, Green Vine began to work on Ru Niang's family affairs,
After all, this Runiang is not the princess's maid, and she can be married in a word, and there is a lot of preparation, and the Wei family must also solve it.
Green Vine's actions were naturally in Luo Cao's eyes, she found a vacancy, hurriedly came to Lu Vine, and asked, "Sister, are you going to marry Ru Niang?"
"Yes, the candidates have been found, and Runiang also agreed. "Green Vine has no intention of hiding it from Rosegrass, and it can't be hidden from anyone, and there are still places that need Rosegrass's help in the future.
Luo Cao was a little anxious when she heard this, and said: "Sister didn't ask the princess, right? This is an unauthorized decision, in case something happens, the princess's temperament, I don't blame you for dealing with it like this, I'm just worried that the Wei family will definitely refuse to give up and make trouble, which will make the princess unhappy, sister, you ...... Why bother? Just let that Ru Niang take it in the small courtyard, there is no shortage of her bowl of rice in the Hengzhi Palace, just go with those beauties in the past, the Wei family has nothing to say, and the prince will definitely not look at this Ru Niang more. ”
"Sister, you have been with the princess for so long, don't you know the habits of the princess?" Green vine sighed, "The princess is a little indifferent outside, in fact, her heart is still soft, and she will be trapped in the palace to survive a young girl like Ru Niang, the princess must be unbearable, after all, Ru Niang is still a young girl, in case there is something to think about, this is also troublesome, especially I have observed, this Ru Niang is also a diligent and gentle person, not a fox who wants to climb high branches, why not give her a way to live?"
"That's right, but the Wei family and that Wei family will never let their sister call the shots like that. How does my sister plan to deal with the one who will marry Ru Niang?" Luo Cao was a little worried and thought for a while, "Why don't you ask the prince and then deal with it separately?"
"This little thing will trouble the princess and princess, what do you want me to wait for?" Green Vine rejected Rosegrass's proposal, and there was a deeper reason she didn't say.
The princess didn't look for others, but looked at her like a mother, not without temptation, or maybe she thought too much. But get it done. It is an opportunity for her, and she may be able to resolve the princess's misunderstanding of her.
There are many people in the palace, and there are naturally some selfish people who report to Su Yiqing, or give Su Yiqing eye medicine. Whatever the place. There will be people who step on the highs and lows. During this time, the princess was obviously cold to the big girl who married Green Vine, and everyone looked at it. I don't know what mistakes Green Vine has made, but I'm still a little disgusted.
There are not a few people who are staring at the position of the big girl next to the princess, if they can squeeze out the green vine, there will be a vacant position, and some people will be able to benefit, even if the green vine's behavior is acquiesced by the princess, these people must also analyze it for the princess, lest the princess not think of the stakes for a while and be blinded.
The so-called analysis, just like Luo Cao said, said that Ru Niang is just a daughter of a declining noble, not to mention that the phoenix with hair is not as good as a chicken, just say that although this Ru Niang looks a little beautiful, but in the end it is not a stunning beauty, compared with the beauty in the Linglong Pavilion and the glass courtyard before, it is not superior at all, so you don't have to bother to place her, just throw it in the small courtyard.
The Wei family has nothing to say, there is such an example, it can also dispel the thoughts of those people outside, lest they send a Ru Niang, there will be a second or third, as long as there are a little fewer people around the prince, someone will do everything possible to send the beauty in, in this case, leave something not so outstanding, easy to control, and occupy the position.
Su Yiqing didn't say anything, she didn't say it was good, she didn't say it was bad, and her attitude towards people who took eye medicine was also light, and she didn't express her disgust.
Green Vine's move is actually to her heart, and with her usual style of acting, she naturally hopes that an obvious tragedy can have a good ending.
Without her brainstorming, the matter can be resolved satisfactorily, and she is naturally happy to see it happen.
Even the big girl who Yufeng specially chose to follow her is really extraordinary, whether it is to her liking or this maid really has a heart of pity, it is a good thing for her.
On the Wei family's side, since the green vine dares to do this, it must also have a back hand, and it will not let the Wei family trouble her, so let's wait and see how this green vine solves this matter.
A person's mind can also be inferred from the way a person solves things.
She had always thought that Green Vine was a trained maid who would only obey orders, but now it seems that it is not, and it is right, a subordinate who will only obey orders and have no ideas is not a good subordinate, after all, Green Vine is not a maid who can only serve tea and water, but a capable subordinate who even Yufeng puts by her side, and it is important to play an important role at critical moments.
She asked the green vine to settle Ru Niang, that is, to make the best use of things, the green vine is still very skillful in handling things, and it also saves this girl from being too idle, so she will inevitably do more things.
If the mother's matter is to be satisfactorily resolved, without leaving a little trouble, and without affecting the Dingwang Mansion and her reputation, it is not difficult to say that it is difficult, and it is not easy to say that it is not easy, it depends on the green vine.
If the green vine abides by her duty, just like the other people in the house, just throw Runiang in the small courtyard, then let her take the place of the previous Xue Niang, and look at these beauties.
But if Green Vine can come up with a way to solve it perfectly, she will think about it and let this maid come back to serve.
She doesn't have any henchmen around her, although the green vine was a little self-assertive last time, but one green vine was replaced, and there will be a second one, rather than another one who doesn't know the underlying temperament, it is better to continue to keep the green vine.
……
Yancheng Mansion.
Zhu Ying has been worrying about the secret letter all this time, it is really a mistake, a wrong step, judging from all kinds of signs, either the princess did not get the secret letter at all, or she just saw it, but chose to ignore it.
Why was he confused at that time, he didn't know that women have long hair and short knowledge, and women's minds were even more difficult to guess, he shouldn't have handed over the letter to Princess Ding, he should have found a way to hand it over directly to King Ding, and he didn't know that King Ding would come back suddenly, he knew that King Ding would return to Yancheng so soon, even if he just handed it over to King Ding.
So for now. If you don't go up or down, you don't know what kind of mess will happen, Zhang Zhutou's wife has no way to go to Dingwang's Mansion to check the whereabouts of the secret letter, and her wife has gone to Meng's house a few times but found nothing, Mrs. Meng is just talking perfunctory, and she has no intention of introducing Princess Ding to her wife at all.
Later, he was really anxious, and saw that with the return of King Ding, the Dingwang Mansion gradually became lively, and the guests continued to come and go every day, so he asked his wife to visit Princess Ding directly. As a result, he couldn't even enter the gate of Dingwang's mansion.
The steward of the palace spoke very politely. said that during this time, there were too many people who came to visit the princess, and the princess could not meet them one by one, especially some who had not interacted with her. If there is nothing particularly important. Let's come back later. To put it mildly, there is only one meaning, the status of the princess is noble. It's not something that idlers can just say.
Although Zhu Ying is only a Fu Yin, and his official position in Yancheng, where the powerful and powerful are gathered, is very low, but his position is special, and who in the various mansions has not yet needed Fu Yin's help? Therefore, everyone in Mrs. Zhu is also polite wherever she goes, and she is not so blind, so she has to come forward and stutter.
This cold treatment is a great insult to Mrs. Zhu, and she is very aggrieved by this, especially her husband is still secretive, asking her to inquire, but not telling her the truth.
In this regard, Zhu Ying was very helpless, and he also felt sorry for his wife, but he really had no choice, some things had just begun, so he couldn't just forget it like this, he still had the integrity of Wenchen in his bones, but he had been doing this Yancheng Mansion Yin for many years, and he was tempered by the situation to be smooth.
He could see that the stakes were high, Da Jing, a spy, might be going on some conspiracy in Yancheng, and he also secretly sent people to investigate to see if there were any similar people, but Yancheng was so big, there were so many merchants coming and going, and it was not easy to find a few people who wanted to avoid it.
And can't blatantly check door-to-door, so as not to startle the snake, and find out, how to deal with it is also a problem, with a corpse, a secret letter, what can he do with people?
If they don't take action, he rashly arrests them, they flatly deny all the charges, he can't torture them to extract confessions, he doesn't have this right.
Everything has to start with Dingwang's Mansion, Dingwang is now back in Yancheng, it stands to reason that Dingwang is also better at dealing with these things, after all, he is a relative of the emperor, and he, the Yin of Yancheng Mansion, has no right to dispose of it.
Starting from the woman's side is a bit unworkable, so you have to find another way.
After careful consideration, Zhu Ying decided to start with the assassin assassin of the Dingwang Mansion last time, and use this matter as a stepping stone to test the attitude of the Dingwang Mansion.
This matter is also difficult, Dingwangfu did not officially report the case, he said that he didn't want to make the matter known, he just found a corpse, and almost burned it to black charcoal, unable to identify the face, the secret letter has also been sent to Dingwangfu, now there is no evidence, the case has not been solved, pointing to a corpse and saying that it is an assassin who broke into the palace courtyard to assassinate the princess, and the people of Dingwangfu will definitely not be happy.
I can only test it first, and I have to find a catcher.
Zhang Zhutou is familiar with the way, and he is also familiar with the guards of the Dingwang Mansion, let him inquire first, whether the people in the Dingwang Mansion are still tracking down the assassin, if they are still tracking, just use this as an introduction, ask to see the Dingwang, and then the matter depends on the attitude of the Dingwang, and he is improvised, and now he is not sure whether the letter was delivered to the princess, or whether the princess has been handed over to the Dingwang.
went around in a big circle, and in the end I had to come forward in person, so it was really better to hand over the letter directly to King Ding.
Zhu Ying regretted this little trick he sometimes played, these little tricks fooled the little people, and it really shouldn't be like this in big things.
The vague secret letter last time made Zhang Zhutou already a little confused, and this time when Zhu Ying looked for him again, Zhang Zhutou was a little resistant.
It's not his business alone, the last incident also involved his wife, he was out of trust in Zhu Ying, which was a little reluctant, this time Zhu Ying looked for him, although compared with the last time I didn't know what the letter was, this matter can finally know a little reason.
But I still feel puzzled, I haven't heard Zhu Ying say it before, the charred corpse is the assassin who broke into the courtyard of the Dingwang Mansion, and it was burned like that, how did Zhu Ying identify it?
Zhu Ying didn't say anything, only said that the matter still needs to be further investigated, and since the Dingwang Mansion has not officially reported the case, he can't go to the palace to inquire openly, so he can only ask privately.
Although Zhang Zhutou was a little resistant, he had no reason to refuse, because he had raised it himself earlier to investigate the matter, and Zhu Ying didn't want to care about this idle matter at that time, but now that he had a clue, he retreated, which was really unreasonable.
Anyway, I can only run once.
Zhang Zhutou found Di Ying, the captain of the guard team, this Di Ying had learned martial arts with him before, and there was a master-apprentice relationship, Di Ying could be said to know everything about him, and Di Ying was secretly told about the assassin last time, of course, their guard commander also acquiesced in this matter, and there were many people who knew about the night.
In the dark night, the guards in the palace also chased out a few streets, and the movement was not small, if it was too concealed, keeping silent would give rise to some chaotic speculations.
Di Ying also wanted to use Zhang Zhutou as the head catcher of Yancheng, and had a better understanding of some of the situations outside Yancheng, to see if they could help, but they found nothing that night, and they didn't even see the shadow of the assassin, so there was no way to start the pursuit.
But as palace guards, although there was no punishment from above, they were really embarrassed to do nothing, when nothing happened, so many people, let an assassin come and go so freely, they were too derelict in their duties, as palace guards, so many people didn't even see the shadow of an assassin, and they were incompetent.
After that, they only asked them to be more careful in the future, and it was their duty to hunt down that night, but how to find out afterwards, the steward of the house had other plans.
Di Ying was a little unwilling, and Zhang Zhutou was not an outsider, so he told him.
It's just that more than a month has passed since this matter, and the prince has already returned to the house, since there is no clue, the commander of the guards asked them to stop mentioning this matter in the future, so as not to spread it badly, and lest people panic, maybe that night was just to find a young man who is not long-sighted, and inadvertently broke in.
After all, the house is just a palace courtyard, and many people don't know it, thinking that it is an ordinary rich family, and it is not impossible to come in and steal.
Di Ying didn't believe in this explanation, how could ordinary thieves escape their ears and eyes, and they didn't eat and do nothing in vain, besides, how could thieves step on the point in advance, seeing so many of them enter the courtyard, a little bit of brains will know that this house is not easy to start, how can they break in like this?
