Chapter 518: The maid chooses one of the two
As soon as Yunyang's words came out, the expressions of Li Zhangshi and Zheng Zhangshi darkened at the same time, and then they invariably chose to be silent. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This situation was unexpected by Yunyang. She thought that at least one person would express surprise at this point, but no, and now it was her turn to be nervous.
Because, the three of them are desperately calculating in their hearts at this time. Yun Yang can tell that the maid has not disappeared and is still in the Huanxi Bureau, so the implication is that she can already guess who the hidden maid is. The incident of Mandarin Niang happened a few decades ago, if the maid was alive, she would be close to fifty years old at this time, and there are not many people of this age in the Huanxi Bureau.
In addition, Yunyang also said that the existence of this person is the key to passing down the story of Mandarin Niang, so it is an allusion to the fact that this person's status in the Huanxi Bureau is extraordinary, because only when such a person speaks can people believe it, otherwise people will speak lightly, and no one will believe it even if they say it.
Speaking of which, the most likely hidden maid is one of Li Zhangshi and Zheng Zhangshi.
Originally, Yunyang's judgment was that as soon as he told the maid that she was still alive in the world, at least one of Li Zhangshi and Zheng Zhangshi would show extreme surprise. Because according to common sense, this person should be completely ignorant of the fact that the maid still exists in the world, and this person's performance can allow Yunyang to judge who the living maid is.
But something happened here, and the two of them chose to be silent at the same time, which contained a lot of meanings - could it be that Yunyang's initial analysis was wrong, and the mandarin girl brought not one maid, but two? But this conclusion was quickly vetoed by her, because although the Huanxi Bureau was not taken seriously, it was also an institution in the inner courtyard of the palace. Moreover, the two entered the Huanxi Bureau at a similar time, and became the first and second leaders here at the same time decades later, which is almost impossible to happen.
So, could it be said that these two people have their own ghosts, and they each have masters on their heads, so when Yunyang suddenly said that the maid was still alive, the two of them were very surprised at the same time, because they were afraid that they would make too many mistakes, so they chose to be silent......
Whether this is the case or not, Yunyang regrets it a little at this time, he was too conceited just now, and recklessly said the key link in the Mandarin Niang case, thinking that everything was under control. When the situation suddenly appears unexpected, then she will become the passive person, because her hole cards Li Zhangshi and Zheng Zhangshi have already understood, and what is the origin of Li Zhangshi and Zheng Zhangshi, Yunyang is suddenly uncertain.
Just as the three of them were embarrassed to not speak, Drinking Green walked in from outside. She and Zheng were still here, so she asked in surprise: "The two directors have been chatting with my mother for so long?" It's almost noon at this time, and there are many things in the front yard that have to be decided by the two masters, and when the slave and maid came over just now, there were a few palace people looking for the two masters. ”
After drinking green to say this, the three people in the room woke up like a dream, and immediately put away the atmosphere they had been secretly speculating on just now, and immediately replaced them with their usual sophisticated and sophisticated smiling faces.
"The slaves and maids are rude, please forgive me." Li Zhangshi turned around and said.
"Then the slaves and maids will not bother, and they will leave." Zheng Zhangshi also said.
It's just that when they saluted, Li Zhangshi and Zheng Zhangshi inadvertently touched their eyes, and soon turned their heads. It's just that this small action didn't escape Yunyang's eyes, and she immediately judged from this action of the two that there was no connection between the two people.
The situation became more and more complicated, and Yun Yang began to regret his recklessness just now - it was almost certain that one of them was the maid who disappeared from Mandarin Niang back then, and what he said just now was nothing more than trying to determine which one was the maid back then through the different reactions of the two leaders after listening to it. Unexpectedly, their reaction was the same, and this result led the original single answer to more possibilities.
After sending off the two masters, he came back and said to Yunyang: "What's the matter today, I haven't seen them come to our house for so long." When they went out just now, the two heads not only had bad faces, but also didn't say a word to each other, which was very different from the usual way the two of them talked and laughed, and I don't know which string was wrong? ”
Yun Yang was holding a pen and tracing half of the pattern on the bookcase, and did not speak, but the pen in his hand paused involuntarily. She didn't take this matter to heart, and when she was done, she asked, "Niangniang, it's not early, do you want lunch?" ”
Yunyang raised his head and said, "I don't have an appetite yet, you can put it on in half an hour." ”
Drinking green answered, but did not turn to leave. A little embarrassed look appeared on her face, and she hesitated for a moment and said, "Hui Niangniang, the slave maid just went back to Qiao Palace to get the flower album, and I heard about something, I don't know if I should tell you." ”
Yun Yang listened, put the copper cap bamboo tube pen in his hand on the pen holder of the Venus glass mountain peak, raised his head and smiled: "Since you said this, you must be planning to tell the palace, why bother." ”
Yin Lu bit his lip, and said a little angrily: "I heard the stone say that on the day that Niangniang just entered the Huanxi Bureau, the emperor issued a holy decree to inform the palaces, and three days later, that is, tonight, a grand fireworks celebration will be held on the Danfeng Gate, saying that it is to congratulate Concubine Rong's Qianqiu Festival......"
For this kind of news, Yunyang originally thought that he was ready, but he didn't expect that when he heard it, his heart was still like being stung by a poisonous insect, and he almost contracted in pain.
Yin Lu didn't notice Yunyang's suddenly locked brows, and said to himself: "I have never heard that the concubine's Qianqiu Festival should be so grand, hasn't the emperor always asked the people in the harem to be diligent and thrifty?" Why did you ignore Concubine Rong as soon as she arrived? The fireworks celebrations in Luoyang City are only held during the Lantern Festival, and today this year is not a festival to do such a show, what is the matter? ”
Yunyang sighed and said, "You don't understand, the emperor is doing this to let the whole country understand that the person he is favoring now is Concubine Rong." However, the territory of the Great Qi State is vast, and if most people know the news, the method of using fireworks celebrations is better than issuing edicts. This not only makes people understand the emperor's intentions, but also allows the people of Luoyang City to have many fireworks, isn't this the best of both worlds? ”
