124 Rotten Ship
In the blink of an eye, a small half moon passed, and after the rain, Fujicheng rarely saw the big sun for a few days. But the mood of the prince Ji Cheng is far from being as sunny as the weather.
"You mean, it was the second brother who drugged Chu Heng?" Ji Cheng looked at Ling Jiu who was kneeling at his feet, his face was gloomy and could drip water: "You can't talk nonsense." ”
"The slave maid has already taken Liu Handong to identify people, and the person who gave her the medicinal powder is Qin Lan, the maid of the second son." Ling Jiu'er looked determined, and then continued: "This Qin Lan was originally a maid serving in Qingyan Pavilion, but later the eldest lady cleaned Qingyan Pavilion, and she escaped. ”
"Since she has escaped, why did she run to the second brother again?"
"Qin Lan has always been the second son's person, and after she escaped from Qingyan Pavilion, she has been hiding beside the second son. Earlier, the second prince kidnapped Chu San, and Qin Lan also had the handiwork of Qin Lan. After a pause, Ling Jiu said again: "Qin Lan has kung fu on his body, and he is not weak, not much worse than a slave. ”
"What a Qin Lan." Ji Cheng frowned slightly, and after a while, he said, "What I wonder about now is whether the master behind Qin Lan is the second brother or the queen mother?" Check it again, see if the second brother knows what Qin Lan has done, and remember not to startle the snake. ”
"Yes." Ling Jiu received the order to get up and leave.
Ji Cheng suddenly asked out loud again, "What happened to Liu Handong?" ”
"She ......" Ling Jiu's brows furrowed: "I was taken away by Miss Chu." ”
Ji Cheng nodded: "Liu Handong is her maid, and if this kind of thing happens, she should be allowed to deal with it herself." ”
Ling Jiu nodded: "The slave thinks the same way. ”
In the Qianjia Building, Chu Heng sat in the lobby on the first floor. Holding an embroidered bandage in his hand, on which is a bright red bridal hijab.
"The girl embroidered too slowly, and it took two days to embroider a mandarin duck head......" Lu Qiao stood beside Chu Heng. Poked his head and looked at the embroidered bandage in Chu Heng's hand: "At the girl's speed, I'm afraid this hijab may not be able to be embroidered in the spring of next year." ”
Chu Heng frowned when he heard this, and simply put the embroidered bandage aside, "How is the yard prepared?" ”
Lu Qiao knew that Chu Heng was asking about the courtyard where he lived after marrying the prince, so he said: "The courtyard has been renovated, and someone came yesterday to measure the bed, according to the meaning of the prince, the sooner the better." The slave and maid looked at the posture of the gang of carpenters, and it could be repaired by the end of this month. ”
"...... before the end of this month" Chu Heng looked sideways out the window, the sun was dazzling. The boundless humidity that originally shrouded over Fuji City gradually faded away: "The weather has been a lot warmer these days. ”
"That's nature, October Xiaoyangchun." Lu Qiao's face was happy: "The girl's good day is coming." ”
Chu Heng was speechless.
Lu Qiao blinked, thinking that although her girl usually does things neatly and neatly, she is still a little girl who is not in time. It is inevitable that such a major event as getting married will be apprehensive. In addition, there are no adults to support you......
"Girl, this woman's marriage is like a second reincarnation, and it's normal to be a little nervous." Lu Qiao turned behind Chu Heng and helped Chu Heng rub his shoulders: "There are not many people in the world who are as handsome as the prince, ambitious and capable in their chests, and the girl is married to the prince." It was a great event. ”
"Alright, you can go to the kitchen and make me some snacks." Chu Heng waved his hand towards Lu Qiao: "Add more syrup." I've been very fond of sweet food these two days. ”
Lu Qiao nodded, walked out of the door, and just took two steps, she stopped and looked back at Chu Heng: "There is something to tell the girl." ”
Chu Heng raised his eyebrows.
Lu Qiao continued: "The girl took pity on Han Dong for raising her younger brother alone, forgave her of the crime, and only sent her out of the house, but I looked at Han Dong's face full of indignation when he left, and I was afraid that he didn't receive the girl's love at all. ”
"So what." Chu Heng picked up the embroidery shed on the side again and began to embroider.
"Girl." Lu Qiao's brows furrowed, she turned around and walked two steps, to Chu Heng's side: "I heard Han Dong complain to Chen Qixian, saying that she did all this for her younger brother, and Miss didn't lose anything because of it, but Miss only gave her five taels of silver and sent her, she was very unconvinced." ”
"Oh?" Chu Hengxiao raised his head with interest: "Then what did Chen Qixian say?" ”
"Chen Qixian, he." Lu Qiao rolled his eyes: "Hearing Han Dong say this, Chen Qixian also patted his chest and said that if Han Dong is short of silver in the future, just look for him......"
"That's what Chen Qixian said?" Chu Heng's brows furrowed.
"Well, I also saw Chen Qixian give Han Dongsai silver." The disdain on Lu Qiao's face became heavier: "Chen Qixian is also out of tune, and I don't know what he likes about Han Dong......"
Chu Heng stopped the embroidery needle in his hand and was silent without speaking.
"Girl, then I'll make a snack first."
Chu Heng nodded, and Lu Qiao turned around and went out.
Lu Qiao had just walked out of Qianjialou and was meeting Chen Qixian walking in head-on.
"Girl Green." Chen Qixian arched his hand with Lu Qiao. Lu Qiao rolled his eyes and walked past Chen Qixian.
"What's the matter......" Chen Qixian touched his nose and looked puzzled. Seeing that Lu Qiao was holding his breath and walking away, Chen Qixian stepped into the Qianjia Building.
"Girl."
"Well, why did you come here today?" Chu Heng continued to embroider the red hijab in his hand, and half of the mandarin duck had already been embroidered in this time.
"The military rations allocated by the prince are not much, and I am afraid that it will not last until the end of this month." After a pause, Chen Qixian said again: "And since the last night parade and sacrifice, Fujicheng has been sunny for half a month, and the decline has gone, and the people who fled from Fujicheng earlier have also come back one after another, and now there are more and more people waiting for soup soup every day......"
"Hmm." Chu Heng picked up the embroidery bandage and looked at the sun, picked up the scissors from the embroidery frame and began to remove the stitches.
Chen Qixian saw that Chu Heng didn't answer him directly, so he craned his neck and looked at the hijab in Chu Heng's hand with some curiosity, Chu Heng was using scissors to pick off the embroidery threads one by one.
"The girl doesn't want to marry?"
Hearing this, Chu Heng's hand stiffened for a moment, and the next second he returned to normal: "Why don't I want to marry such an excellent person as the prince?" ”
"I've been in the Fujiwang Mansion for a while, and I've heard some rumors, and I can vaguely understand why the girl doesn't want to marry."
"Oh?" Chu Heng looked up at Chen Qixian, and seeing Chen Qixian's serious face, Chu Heng blinked his eyes and said, "Then tell me, why don't I want to marry?" ”
"Life is like chess, and there are no regrets, so every step is terrifying." Chen Qixian's eyes gradually darkened: "I think, a person with such a heart as a girl, is he unwilling to be tied to the rotten ship of the Tengwang Mansion for the rest of his life." ”
"Rotten ship?" The corners of Chu Heng's mouth drooped down, and his gaze instantly became sharp: "You dare to say that the Fujiwang Mansion is a rotten ship?" ”
Chen Qixian was scolded by Chu Heng, and took half a step back in shock, his eyes were terrified, and his fingers trembled slightly. (To be continued......)
