Chapter 49 Xiangxiao Water Cloud 3
"Also, didn't Lin Zhiwu tell you that when the fried bean worms are put on the plate, you should put some green vegetable petals or something on the plate to decorate? Who asked you to serve a plate of worms directly to the guests?" The cold voice with a cold meaning spit out from Leng Qing's mouth unhurriedly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As Leng Qing's voice fell, in the backyard of the slightly dim "Xiaoxiang Water Cloud", only a gasping voice was heard very abruptly: "Hiss...... How did the girl know about Steward Lin......"
On this side, before the shopkeeper finished speaking, Leng Qing took the lead in opening his mouth and said, "What do you think?"
Leaving this rhetorical question in a cold tone, Leng Qing turned away.
The thatched house of "Xiaoxiang Shuiyun" is built in the deepest part of the backyard of "Xiaoxiang Shuiyun", because it is a thatched house, so there are no lights around, only a few red lanterns are hung under the eaves not far away, which can illuminate the road to the thatched house.
After a day of wandering outside, Leng Qing really wanted to make it easier.
When Leng Qing liberated herself in the dark thatched house, as soon as Leng Qing stepped out of the thatched house, she saw a small and slightly chubby figure standing quietly under the light and shadow not far from the thatched house.
Seeing this, Leng Qing straightened her dress and slowly walked to the backlit figure. Turning his gaze on the face of the person who couldn't see clearly because of the backlight, Leng Qing opened his mouth and asked lightly: "Shopkeeper Xu, right?"
"Yes, villain Xu Lingju. I don't know what Madame has to say for the girl to bring to the villain?" The answer to Leng Qing was a man's voice with a slight tone, a respectful tone, but neither humble nor arrogant.
"At the end of tonight, let Zhu Zimo go to the Rongjia Garden in the prince's mansion. Because there was no time to talk nonsense, Leng Qing's answer was very concise and to the point.
On the other side, Xu is Leng Qing replied too concisely, but the person standing with the backlight asked in a loud tone: "Uh...... The villain didn't understand what the lady meant by letting the girl take it......"
Stepping forward, standing over the backlight, not tall, slightly chubby figure, Leng Qing only left a cold tone: "You don't have to understand, you just need to tell Zhu Zimo the original words, he will understand." In addition, tell Zhu Zimo that if he refuses to go to the appointment on time, let him wait to collect the body of his daughter-in-law. Of course, if you can't tell Zhu Zimo what I said in time, Zhu Zimo will have to wait to collect his daughter-in-law's body. ā
"Hiss......" Behind Leng Qing, only a gasping sound sounded.
After returning to the hall on the first floor in front of "Xiaoxiang Shuiyun", Liang Shengxiao didn't ask Leng Qing why she went to a thatched house for so long, but only greeted Leng Qing with a warm smile to eat quickly, otherwise the meal would be cold.
Leng Qing naturally didn't make trouble for herself, she just picked up the dishes and chopsticks with a calm face, and ate the meal that had already been served on the table with Liang Shengxiao calmly.
And when Leng Qing, who was sitting in the hall on the first floor of "Xiaoxiang Shuiyun", was eating with Liang Shengxiao with a calm face as usual, a slightly chubby figure walked out of the back door of "Xiaoxiang Shuiyun", and his footsteps hurriedly ran towards the west area of Creping City......
After finishing the meal at "Xiaoxiang Shuiyun" and checking out the "Xiaoxiang Shuiyun", Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing walked side by side in the direction of the prince's mansion.
The Prince's Mansion was built in the eastern area of the city, and half of the eastern area of the city was the residence of the imperial family and nobles, and half was the residence of the dignitaries. Therefore, when Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing stepped into the boundary of the Eastern District, the number of pedestrians on the street decreased significantly.
The further you go in the East End, the fewer pedestrians there are on the street. When I arrived, the street was empty and I couldn't see a single person, illuminated by the cold moonlight and the bright and dark lights on both sides of the street.
Walking all the way through the cold moonlight and the bright and dark lights, Leng Qing suddenly turned his head sideways and asked Liang Shengxiao: "Liang Gongzi has been carrying that bamboo Xiao today, but he doesn't play it, so why do you still have to take it?"
Hearing this, Liang Shengxiao looked down at the ordinary bamboo Xiao he was holding in his hand, and then raised his eyes to look at Leng Qing who was looking at him sideways, Liang Shengxiao pursed his lips and smiled, and replied gently: "It's just a habit." ā
This side, looking at the long road ahead that was hidden by darkness and seemed to have no end, suddenly Wen Leng Qing asked as if proposing: "Hmm...... The road is boring, why don't Liang Gongzi play a song for me?" She has accompanied Liang Shengxiao to practice the song so many times, it shouldn't be too much to let Liang Shengxiao play a song for him......
"Good. The answer to Leng Qing was Liang Shengxiao's gentle smile without hesitation.
In this way, I saw Liang Shengxiao holding Xiao with both hands and putting Xiao in front of his lips. The thin lips opened slightly, and the ethereal music sounded in the empty and quiet streets.
Listen to the sound of the strings and know the elegance. What kind of tune Liang Shengxiao is playing, Leng Qing doesn't know, but from Liang Shengxiao's Xiao voice, Leng Qing can hear that Liang Shengxiao is in a very good mood now, even happy.
Leng Qing didn't want to ask Liang Shengxiao why she was happy, so she just listened to Liang Shengxiao's quietly and never disturbed.
The road ahead is long, all the way is long. In Leng Qing's silent listening, in Liang Shengxiao's song after song, Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing, who had returned the same way, finally walked to the back door of the prince's mansion.
Putting down the bamboo Xiao on his lips, Liang Shengxiao raised his hand and knocked on the closed wooden door unhurriedly.
After a long while, a slightly old voice came from behind the quiet door: "Who?"
Casual tone, simple words, Liang Shengxiao outside the door replied seriously: "Uncle Zhang, it's Shengxiao who is back, please open the door." ā
Then, in a quiet moment, Leng Qing heard a slight sound of chains, and then, Leng Qing saw that the old wooden door, which was only two meters high and one meter wide, first opened a small gap, and only after the person behind the door saw that the person standing outside the door was really Liang Shengxiao, the wooden door was completely opened.
The one who opened the door for Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing was still the gray-haired old man during the day.
The old man had already rested, but he was pulled up from the bed by the sound of Liang Shengxiao knocking on the door, and his coat was not only loosely draped over his shoulders, but also the shoes on his feet.
Despite this, when he opened the door and saw that it was really Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing who were back, the old man still smiled and said to Liang Shengxiao: "You are back, come in quickly, come in quickly!" The earnest and kind appearance did not seem to have the slightest mind about Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing's behavior of knocking on the door in the middle of the night to disturb his sleep.
On the contrary, Liang Shengxiao saw the old man's appearance in clothes and shoes, and apologized to the old man very embarrassed.
After a few words of greeting, Liang Shengxiao took Leng Qing and walked towards the prince's mansion.
For some reason, since entering the Prince's Mansion, Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing have been silent all the way, and no one seems to have the desire to speak.
Just strolling silently in the quiet Prince's Mansion, from time to time, Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing would encounter a group of soldiers in the palace wearing armor and patrolling with spears.
Although he was silent all the way, Liang Shengxiao was very gentlemanly, and sent Leng Qing back to Rongjia Garden, watching Leng Qing enter the house, Liang Shengxiao, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard, turned around and left.
After Liang Shengxiao passed through most of the prince's mansion, returned to the courtyard where he lived in the prince's mansion, and entered the house to light the lamp, Liang Shengxiao's eyes fell on the bright yellow scroll that rested quietly on the table in front of him.
Liang Shengxiao remembers very well that when he left this morning, there was no such thing in his room......
Staring at the bright yellow scroll and being silent for a while, Liang Shengxiao finally reached out and took the bright yellow scroll embroidered with complex flying dragon dark patterns with gold thread on the back of the scroll in his hand and slowly unfolded it.
As the scroll unfolded, looking at the content on the scroll, Liang Shengxiao's sword eyebrows that flew diagonally into the sideburns became deeper and deeper......
On the other hand, after Leng Qing returned to her room in Rongjia Garden, Leng Qing did not wash up and sleep immediately, but sat down at the tea table in the room in the dark, quietly waiting for the passage of time......
Leng Qing passed while waiting for her son, waiting for someone she hadn't seen for half a year to come to her temporary appointment.
Time passes without a trace. The moon gradually rises into the sky, and then gradually tilts.
When midnight approached, a very abrupt footstep suddenly sounded in the quiet Rongjia Garden. Before Leng Qing, who was sitting in the dark room, could react, the closed door in front of Leng Qing was vigorously pushed open from the outside.
The two hollowed-out carved door panels were pushed into unison and slammed into the walls on both sides behind the door, making two small "clang" sounds.
And with the sound of opening the door, there was a male voice that was as warm as jade but with a cold tone: "Leng Qing, you have good skills." If I hadn't seen you by chance in 'Xiangxiao Shuiyun' today, I wouldn't have known that you had returned to Daliang!
As the door opened, the cold moonlight outside the house cast into the dark room, illuminating a place inside the door.
Looking down at the moonlight that disappeared just in front of her toes, looking at the slender shadow that was cast by the moonlight in front of her toes, sitting at the tea table in the room, Leng Qing, hidden in the darkness, slowly raised her eyes, and calmly looked at the long jade figure standing in front of her door with her back to the moonlight outside the house.
It was a black figure, not to mention facial features, Leng Qing could only see that the other party had a humanoid silhouette.
In a short silence, only Leng Qing's cold and calm voice was heard slowly: "The figure I saw in the wing room on the second floor during the day in 'Xiangxiao Shuiyun' is really you." After a pause, Leng Qing lowered her voice and slowly spit out a name: "Zhu Zimo." ā
Zhu Zimo, who was standing in front of the door, did not answer and was silent.
And on this side, Leng Qing finally lit the candle in the house and dispelled the darkness in the room.
Looking up at Zhu Zimo standing in front of the door in the light, Leng Qing, who was still sitting at the tea table in the house, spit out a sentence expressionlessly: "Don't use it as a stake at the door, come in." ā
On that side, outside the wide open door, Zhu Zimo, who was wearing a jade crown and jade hairpin, and was wearing a sky blue long Confucian shirt, was also expressionless for a while, and walked into the house according to his words.
When Zhu Zimo entered the room, Leng Qing, who was sitting at the table, shook over with an expressionless face: "Close the door." ā
When Zhu Zimo, who was expressionless, turned around to close the door, Leng Qing lifted the teapot on the tea table in her hand, took two upside-down teacups, and poured two cold teas. After Zhu Zimo closed the door and walked to the tea table, and sat down in the position opposite Leng Qing, Leng Qing divided the poured cold tea in front of Zhu Zimo.
Staring at the cold tea that was put in front of him for a while, Zhu Zimo suddenly whispered: "Say, why did you let Lao Xu send me a message to me to come to the Prince's Mansion tonight to find you?" What else did he say if he didn't come, let him wait to collect his daughter-in-law's body? hehe...... She also knew that she was the daughter-in-law he was marrying?!!
"I'm leaving the Prince's Mansion, this is not the place I should be. What answered Zhu Zimo was Leng Qing's cold and calm voice.
Suddenly raising his eyes, his eyes looked at Leng Qing who was sitting opposite him, Zhu Zimo opened his mouth expressionlessly: "Why?"
At this time, Leng Qing picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip of cold tea, and after putting down the teacup, she replied calmly with a calm face: "I should tell you, I told you in that letter a long time ago, and I won't repeat some things." You should understand that I have been staying in the Prince's Mansion, and I may bring trouble to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess at any time. ā
Zhu Zimo, who was sitting across the table from Leng Qing, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and still asked in a cold voice with an expressionless face: "So you are going to throw this trouble on me?" After a pause, Zhu Zimo added: "Why?"
She appeared when she wanted to, and after disturbing his heart, she left when she wanted to. Now that she wants to go back to him, he's going to take her back? Why?!!
And this side, what answered Zhu Zimo was Leng Qing's calm and calm sentence: "With this." As she spoke, Leng Qing threw the thing she was holding in her hand onto the table in front of Zhu Zimo.
Following Leng Qing's movements, Zhu Zimo looked down, but saw that the thing that was thrown on the table in front of him was a round copper token less than the size of a palm, and the golden token was tied with silver wire at one end and a silver tassel at the other. The token is surrounded by an intricate silver pattern, with a magnolia flower engraved on the back and a "white" character engraved on the front.
Zhu Zimo remembered that this token was given to his newlywed wife by their master who asked his third junior brother to give to him when he and Leng Qing got married, which was Leng Qing's piece - Bering.
When Zhu Zimo looked down at the piece of Bering that was thrown in front of him, Leng Qing said lightly: "Yan Ziming said, this is something made by your master himself, and if you have it one day, you brothers and sisters will protect me." ā
Although Leng Qing didn't understand why Yan Ziming, Zhu Zimo, and Lin Xiaoyang's master gave her this token, since Yan Ziming said that this token could make Zhu Zimo obediently listen to her, Leng Qing didn't mind bullying others.
