Chapter 139: Night Visit
The four princes were dressed in a lilac robe, the hem of which was embroidered with a slightly darker purple pattern, and a silver silk thread was twisted in the middle, which looked shining in the light but not pressing.
Rong Xi couldn't help but smile slightly, the fourth prince even dressed in style so close to his temperament, so is he thinking about Taoguang now, waiting for the future counterattack, or is he really just a rich prince?
Rong Xi didn't believe the latter, she felt that she was as smart as the four princes and his wife, and she should be able to figure it out, even if you don't have the heart to fight in this royal family, but others still refuse to let you go, and only when you die, can it be regarded as the last chance to go.
The fourth prince walked out quickly, and saluted Leng Yixiu and Rong Hai respectfully, "Third brother, third sister-in-law, I don't want you to come over at this time, the younger brother is not welcome." ”
"Our husband and wife also used dinner to go out for a walk, what our brother said about whether to welcome or not, don't blame us for disturbing you." Leng Yixiu made a rare little joke.
"What does the third brother say, please come in." The fourth prince said, ordering someone to take the reins of the horse in the hands of the two, but when he saw the black canopy carriage, a trace of doubt in his eyes quickly flashed.
The layout of the house is fresh and elegant, at first glance there is no prosperous and extravagant things, but a closer look can see that those furnishings are all through the heart, those things are also elegant and revealing a low nobility, Rong Xi's eyes have a little more praise, the world says that Jintang Yuma, in fact, I don't know that only those things that have been washed to wash off the lead on the surface are really valuable.
From a distance, I had seen the four imperial concubines waiting for the door of the main house, and when they saw everyone coming, they immediately greeted them, and gave the two of them a salute first, and then said to Rong Xi: "Third sister-in-law, it's all my fault that I only care about the pool of red brocade in the back. ”
"It's okay, we're just going around at will, where are there so many rules," Rong Xi smiled faintly.
The fourth imperial concubine sighed lightly, "The third sister-in-law is really a beauty, you should really go out for a walk." ”
"It's not your fault, there are some ladies in Pingsuri, remember to go back to the third sister-in-law," the fourth prince said in a casual tone.
"That's not necessary," Rong Xi waved his hand, "I still like to do some of my favorite things in the mansion when I'm fine." ”
The polite words have already been said, and then it's time to get down to business, the four princes know that there must be something wrong with the two of them coming at this time, and they have already retreated, there are only four people left in the room, and the aromatherapy ball hanging in the corner of the room is exquisitely carved, and the faint aroma wafts out from the inside, and the wind outside is warm, mixed with the aroma, and the warm fragrance of the room makes people feel a lot calmer.
"Third brother, today in the court, whose handiwork do you think it is?" The fourth prince said first, he didn't know what Leng Yixiu was here for, so he had to start with other things first.
"What about the fourth brother?" Leng Yixiu's eyes flashed, and he didn't answer directly.
The fourth prince shook his head slightly, and put his palms on his knees, "This...... The younger brother couldn't say it well, but it could be seen that it was not Su Jingyao alone, and it was not a day's work. ”
He paused for a moment and said, "Fortunately, the third brother had the foresight and had already seen their tricks, so he didn't fall into passivity." ”
"That's right," Leng Yixiu nodded, "Brother Wei also thinks that Su Jingyao is just a small character in this matter, and the mastermind behind him did not show up, and ...... It is believed that Su Jingyao will soon commit suicide in fear of sin. ”
His voice sank, and the last four words were cold and faintly sarcastic, and the face of the fourth prince sank slightly, but there was no look of surprise, "The younger brother also thinks so, but it ...... As soon as Su Jingyao died, it was even more difficult to find out who was behind this. ”
His eyes turned, he looked at Leng Yixiu and said, "If the person behind this curtain can't be found out for a day, the third brother will be in danger for a day." ”
Leng Yixiu hooked the corners of his lips, his gaze was deep, with layers of coldness, like broken ice cubes shining in the light, "I'm afraid the fourth brother is like this." ”
The four princes were slightly surprised, and the faces of the four princesses also changed slightly, and they hurriedly glanced at Rong Xi, and the four princes said in a deep voice: "What does the third brother mean by this?" ”
Leng Yixiu didn't speak, but just took out a folded piece of paper from his sleeve, the paper was thin and yellowish, it could be seen that it was not new paper, and the faint handwriting on it was also black and gray, not made of new ink.
The fourth prince looked at the piece of paper, his breathing quickened slightly, he suddenly felt a little nervous, and realized in his heart that maybe the purpose of Leng Yixiu and Rong Xi's coming tonight was this.
He was silent on his face, watching Leng Yixiu stretch out his finger, hesitated, took the piece of paper, and he turned on the light and gently unfolded the paper.
It was a letter, looking up at Sect Master Song, the four princes quickly went through it in his mind, he thought about it carefully, and there was no one who could be called this in his impression, which made him slightly relieved in his heart, but he was also more confused.
He read it carefully and refused to miss a word, but the content of the letter was very simple, nothing more than discussing the matter of those goods, and his eyes finally fell on the payment.
Rong Erye.
The breath of relief he had just breathed was lifted again, he knew in his heart, who was Leng Yixiu? He would never show himself such a useless letter for no reason, or even ...... This letter may be the key thing, pressing on one's own death hole.
His fingers pressed slightly on Rong Erye's payment, there was a faint smile on his face, and he said in a puzzled tone: "Third brother, this is ......"
"This is a letter from Second Master Rong and Ren Tongtong," Leng Yixiu looked at the letter and said: "However, this is definitely not an ordinary letter, but a handle that is held in someone's hand, and when the time comes, the Rong family will be pinched on his fingers, and who is behind the Rong family, I believe that I don't need to say, the fourth brother should understand." ”
The face of the fourth prince changed slightly, he knew what Leng Yixiu said, but ...... The language and wording in this letter are just ordinary merchants' letters, how can they be used as a lever? Could it be ...... Is there a mystery in this letter?
Leng Yixiu looked at his expression, instantly understood what he was thinking, smiled slightly, Rong Xi took a sip of tea, "Do you know where you got this letter from?" ”
The fourth prince looked at her suspiciously, and the fourth princess was also a little nervous, looked at her and shook her head gently, pursed her lips and said: "Third sister-in-law, our lord really doesn't know the stakes in this, and please explain to the third sister-in-law, our lord has always acted cautiously......"
"That's right," Rong Xi put down the teacup in his hand, "It's really cautious, but I can't handle it with the hearts of others, so I can't do it here, so I want to go to Dongjiang." ”
"Dongjiang?" The fourth prince's eyebrows jumped, "The third sister-in-law means that this letter was obtained from Eastern Xinjiang?" ”
Rong Xi shook his head and said, "No, this letter was robbed by me on the way to Dongjiang. ”
"On the way to Dongjiang......" The fourth imperial concubine subconsciously repeated, then opened her eyes wide, covered her mouth with her hands, and stared at Rong Xi in disbelief.
"Yes, I went to Dongjiang a few days ago," Rong Xi's face did not change, and he said lightly: "In addition to robbing these letters, I also met Rong Erye and had a long talk with him in the study." ”
"Have you met your second uncle?" The fourth prince stood up, this matter was too unexpected for him, he knew that Rong Xi was shrewd, he could see it since the family banquet incident in the palace, but he never expected that Rong Xi had actually left the capital and went to Dongjiang! And these days, Leng Yixiu has been on time to the court, and he has never been absent for a day, which shows that Rongxi is a person who goes to the eastern frontier!
What the hell is going on in the East Frontier?! He suddenly felt some chills in his back.
"Yes, besides, Second Master Rong has also read similar letters," Rong Xi's gaze turned to the letter, "Do you know who this Song Sect Master is?" ”
The heart of the fourth prince trembled suddenly, he finally understood the mystery of this letter, it turned out that it was only in the identity of this "Song Sect Master", since Rong Xi asked like this, it means that he must not be an ordinary businessman, and this identity must be the most powerful killing machine!
"Who is it?" The Fourth Imperial Concubine couldn't help but ask, although she tried her best to keep her composure, her voice was still slightly trembling.
"His real name is Wu Keqing," Leng Yixiu said, the candlelight dancing on his face, but it didn't dye any temperature, "It's the eldest son of the King of Miao Jiang and the eldest brother of the Prince of Daklei." ”
"What?" The body of the fourth prince shook, took a step back, raised his hand to hold the small table next to him, his eyes swelled in the dark, his body softened, and he slowly sat on the chair.
The fourth imperial concubine skipped a beat, exclaimed in a low voice, and covered her mouth with the brocade in her hand.
"It's a conspiracy, it must be a conspiracy!" The fourth prince muttered, and after a long silence, he turned his head to look at Rong Xi, "Third sister-in-law, you have met the second uncle, what did he say?" ”
"Obviously, Second Master Rong doesn't know the true identity of Wu Keqing," Rong Xi recalled Second Master Rong's shocked expression at that time, and then looked at the fourth prince and said, "Because his expression at that time was similar to yours." ”
"Where's the Ukqing?" The eyes of the four princes lit up again, but they were beating with anger, and there was irrepressible anger on their faces.
"It's already arranged," Rong Xi's smile swayed in the light, and his eyes were shining, "I believe that Dakley will solve him for us soon." ”
The fourth prince took a long breath, calmed down and calmed down, and after a while, he opened his mouth and asked, "So, third brother, how do you need your brother to repay?" There was a bit of helplessness in his tone, but also a heavy firmness.
Rong Xi lowered his eyes and smiled slightly, and said in his heart that these four princes are really smart, and they can understand it at a glance, such a person is really a strong opponent of Leng Yixiu if he stays until the end.
