"I don't want to go——" Zhao Jiangxuan was startled, his back straightened, he looked at Jian Ye blankly, and then looked at Cao Tianan, who is this white-bearded old man, why did he take her away?

Jian Ye's tone was calm, and he said indifferently: "Old General Cao said that he heard that someone, to be exact, said that Rong Qingyi was bullying you, since this matter has spread outside, there must be someone who has a lot of tongues, who have you told about this? Why did the family affairs of King Jian's Mansion become an injustice in his mouth?"

Zhao Jiangxuan was stunned, blinked his eyes, and said in a daze: "It's not Jiang Xuan, it must be Rong Qingyi." ”

"Did you shout the three words Rong Qingyi casually?" Jian Ye's voice sank, and then he looked at Cao Tianan, and his tone revealed three points of mockery, "Old General Cao, you said, how can such a disrespectful woman, a woman who calls her cousin's name directly, her cousin, that is, Rong Qingyi, can bully her?

Cao Tianan frowned, and glanced at Zhao Jiangxuan, this girl is really stupid!

"It must be Rong Qingyi, no, it must be my cousin, she is talking nonsense. Zhao Jiangxuan said affirmatively.

Jian Ye snorted in his nose and said lightly: "Zhao Jiangxuan, are you really stupid to Rong Qingyi? She said to outsiders that she bullied you, and then let your relatives come to the door?"

Zhao Jiangxuan felt that there was a mess in his head, as if there was nothing, and as if he had everything, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

"It's a slave, it's not. Xiao Qian, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly said with a trembling voice, "It's the slave who talks casually with outsiders for a while, saying that our young lady has always wanted to look at the face of the main room here." ”

Jian Ye looked at Xiao Qian, who was kneeling on the ground, Xiao Qian looked down at the ground, not daring to look up at Jian Ye, Jian Ye sighed lightly, and said slowly: " To be a sensible minion, I know that at this time I am responsible for my own master, but if this matter is not instructed by Zhao Jiangxuan, you don't have the guts, you didn't grow up watching Zhao Jiangxuan grow up, come to serve her, it is also your master's order, you want you to take care of Zhao Jiangxuan, don't have any problems, you are a secret guard, according to your previous character, it must be more than one thing is better than less, since you are willing to bear it, I don't think about your master's face with your master and servant, but there must not be a next time. ”

"Yes. Xiao Qian's voice trembled, and her body trembled slightly.

Cao Tianan was a little speechless for a while, as if he had some extra feelings, and glanced outside, the sky outside was not too good, and it was slightly gloomy, it was when the rain added coolness, I don't know how the people who stayed outside to check what was on the wall of the courtyard where Rong Qingyi lived?

There are some footsteps outside, some familiar, some unfamiliar, it seems to be familiar people plus unfamiliar people, the familiar footsteps are a little hesitant, but the unfamiliar footsteps are quiet and calm.

"Master, Mrs. Rong is back, and the princess wants her to come over. Jinxi walked to the door and came back.

"What about people?" Jian Ye asked lightly.

Waiting outside, Mrs. Rong said that if the matter has been resolved, she will not come in again, lest General Cao Lao lose face, and come to King Jian's mansion early in the morning to reprimand his wife and concubine who have nothing to do with him for favor, the fewer people who know about such things, the better, otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be heard when I say it. Jin Xi whispered, "If she needs to come in and explain something, she won't be too late to come in." ”

Jian Ye's face was calm, but he was slightly surprised in his heart, when did Rong Qingyi become so calm.

"Let her in, General Cao must have something to figure out. Jian Ye said lightly.

Jin Xi went out again, and brought Rong Qingyi in, Rong Qingyi was followed by Qin Shi and Lianxiang, as well as two unfamiliar faces, with their heads lowered and a look of frustration.

Cao Tianan's face changed, and chagrin and embarrassment immediately appeared between his eyebrows.

Jian Ye looked at the man with an unfamiliar face, and then at Cao Tianan, it could be seen from the dress that these two people were the same as the four entourages standing behind Cao Tianan, and they should be the other entourages brought by Cao Tianan.

"General Cao is good. Rong Qingyi said politely, pretending not to see Jian Ye's eyes looking at the two unfamiliar faces of the men behind him, "Qingyi has seen his predecessors. ”

Cao Tianan pretended to cough twice, covered his mouth with his hands, and then glanced at the two people, his face sank, and his voice was a little unhappy: "Why are you here?"

The two men looked at each other, embarrassed and embarrassed, but neither of them spoke.

"I'm afraid I'm lost. Rong Qingyi smiled faintly and said in a gentle tone, "When Qingyi left the backyard, because he thought that his mother-in-law might not have eaten breakfast, he only talked to the housekeeper, and he was afraid that if his mother-in-law had something to look for Qingyi, or the father-in-law found out that Qingyi was not in the backyard to punish him, he left Lianxiang and Qian Depei to wait in the backyard, and only took Qin's mother out alone. Lianxiang and Qian Depei were doing things in the backyard, and heard voices outside, because some flowers and plants were planted at the courtyard wall, all of which were precious varieties specially sent by Brother Qingyi, I was afraid that someone would steal flowers, and General Cao was not strange, these two minions had not seen much of the world, only when people in the world liked precious flowers and plants, and had a suspicion for a while, they found a ladder and climbed to the head of the wall to inspect, and happened to meet these two people wandering outside the courtyard wall, I happened to hear someone talking inside the courtyard wall, and I was curious for a while, so I wanted to take a look without permission. General Cao has always been very strict in his rules, and the two of them have no intention of being interested in precious flowers and plants, but they are just curious for a while, and they don't need to be punished. ”

A large number of words, Rong Qingyi spoke calmly and calmly, eloquently, not impatient, although there was no word of reproach, but he could hear that there was a mockery in every word. Cao Tianan's face was red and white for a while, and he couldn't wait to get up and leave immediately.

wanted to be punished, but Rong Qingyi pleaded first, and repeatedly said that these two people were just out of curiosity, even if they wanted to punish these two people for doing things unfavorably, they couldn't do it in front of Rong Qingyi, otherwise, this would be called not giving face to Rong Qingyi.

"I'll go back and clean up them!" Cao Tianan said with some snort.

Rong Qingyi smiled slightly, looked at the two embarrassed men, and asked gently: "However, Qingyi is indeed a little curious, I don't know what the two of you are curious about, although it is just a quiet backyard, and the location is still a little remote, but it is also the courtyard of King Jian's Mansion, even if the two are the subordinates of General Cao, they should also understand that King Jian's Mansion has the rules of King Jian's Mansion, so Qing Yi thought about it, or ask the two to give an explanation, so as not to fall into the ears of others, and then let Qing Yi carry the black cauldron, but it is absolutely inappropriate." ”

The two men immediately looked at Cao Tianan.

Rong Qingyi looked slightly confused, and also looked at Cao Tianan, frowned slightly, and said with a puzzled look: "Why do you two look at Old General Cao, could it be that Old General Cao wants the two of you to go to the backyard to inquire about something?" General Cao Lao is also an old minister who has repeatedly made military exploits at the border pass, even the Empress Dowager and the current emperor will give a little thin face, although the friendship between King Jian's Mansion and General Cao's Mansion is not too deep, but it can be regarded as getting along harmoniously, what is the matter, General Cao Lao can directly ask Qingyi's mother-in-law, or directly ask Qingyi's father-in-law, why send the two of you to be so sneaky there? Could it be that the two of you want to put all the fault on your master's head?"

The two of them had a feeling that they couldn't get rid of this matter, and they didn't dare to look at Cao Tian'an anymore, but they didn't dare to speak lightly, staring at the ground under their feet, sweat began to appear on their foreheads, and they thought quickly in their minds, hoping to come up with the most appropriate explanation.

"What?" Rong Qingyi's voice was slightly clear, and he said with some dissatisfaction, "I'm also the wife of the little prince of King Jian's mansion, can't I ask you two a question of being slaves? Is this the rule of Old General Cao's mansion? Or do you two have ghosts in your hearts, not to see those precious flowers and plants, but to really want to enter the backyard from the wall?"

The two of them were stunned, and they all looked up at Rong Qingyi.

"No, no. One of them blurted out, "It's just that the two of us are curious and curious for a while, and we don't intend to steal flowers, and we can't raise those precious flowers and plants." ”

"That's weird. Rong Qingyi's face sank, and he said dissatisfiedly, "Then why are you two wandering outside the backyard wall? Although it is not lively, but the two of you should also understand that it must be the place where the family lives, how can you wander around outside without leaving, if outsiders see it, what kind of system will it be?"

Cao Tianan suddenly felt that he seemed to be wrong when he came to support Zhao Jiangxuan today, and the Rong Qingyi in front of him was definitely not the weakness he thought he had been, he had a feeling of being sad today.

It feels terrible.

The two glanced at each other, with a look of frustration, at this time the two of them had no other way but to give an explanation immediately, otherwise, Rong Qingyi would definitely not give up.

"The two of us were left outside by our master to wait, and when we got bored, we wandered around, and when we reached the backyard wall, we felt that there was nothing to see, so we stopped. One of the two of them thought quickly in his head, and said with difficulty, "Looking at the courtyard wall in the backyard is very beautifully repaired, I vaguely heard someone talking inside, and I was curious for a while, so I wanted to perform light skills and take a look——"

Rong Qingyi smiled slightly, and said half-truthfully: "It's really interesting, could it be that in the eyes of the people in General Cao's mansion, the courtyard wall made of ordinary bluestone in the backyard is also very good-looking? I'm afraid I'm curious about what the wall is, right? I don't dare to say anything, this lie is not easy to tell." ”R1154
