Chapter 42: Unwillingness
The people who followed Liu Tong were also the people he brought when Chang Runzhi saw him last time.
Look at the appearance of the two, they look like a pair of brothers, they are both tall and tall, one is named Hua Ze, and the other is named Hua Hao.
Liu Tong saw Hua Ze come back, first let him take a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then asked, "How is it, is it Fang Shuozhang?" ”
"If you go back to your master, it's Fang Shuozhang."
Hua Ze lowered his head and replied: "The people behind Fang Shuozhang also have some backgrounds. ”
"Oh?" When Liu Tong heard this, his expression suddenly became cautious: "Who is it?" ”
"One is Li Weiqing, the second son of the left servant Lang family of the Ministry of War, and the other is Song Geng, the nephew of General Huaixi."
Liu Tong did not avoid Chang Runzhi when he asked, and Chang Runzhi also listened to it.
She hadn't heard of the son of the left squire of the military department, but she knew about the general of Huaixi.
The crown prince's Song Liangdi, his father is the general of Huaixi. This Song Geng is the nephew of General Huaixi, so he is Song Liangdi's cousin or cousin.
Liu Tong frowned: "Where did they go, do you know what they said?" ”
"They went...... Yi Hong Court. Hua Ze couldn't help but glance at Chang Run, and then continued: "The villain wanted to follow up secretly, but he didn't succeed. ”
Chang Runzhi raised his eyebrows and asked Hua Zedao: "Yi Hongge is a brothel?" ”
Hua Ze nodded awkwardly.
Seeing Chang Runzhi with a smile on his face, Liu Tong coughed, and said angrily: "It's not a serious thing, I go to the brothel in the daytime." ”
Chang Runzhi shook his head: "The brothel doesn't welcome customers during the day." They went in to talk about things. It's a great place to talk. ”
Chang Runzhi paused and asked Liu Tong: "It sounds like Yi Hong Pavilion should also be a famous place in the capital, but I don't know if this Yi Hong Pavilion is also the property of a certain prince?" ”
Liu Tong suddenly understood, and said: "Yi Hongge is quite famous in Beijing, but I haven't heard of whose industry it is. The owner who wants to come behind the scenes is not small, and it is well hidden. ”
Chang Runzhi didn't know why, and suddenly thought of the prince and the widow Chen, the woman who was born in the Teaching Workshop Division and is said to be exquisite.
She didn't know what to say, and said softly: "Since I don't know what they said, it's not easy to guess at will." Look, Ninth Prince, what are you going to do? ”
Liu Tong glanced at her with a little dissatisfaction, Chang Runzhi understood, lowered his voice and called "Ah Tong".
Liu Tong was satisfied, and after a deep sigh, he said: "Although my father took the fifth brother's position in the military department, he did not delegate some forces of the military department to the prince as the prince thought. Now Fang Shuozhang, who is doing things for the prince, has made an appointment to meet the son of the left squire of the military department, presumably to figure out guò to win over the left squire of the military department. As for that Song Geng...... That's hard to say. It may be that they have been invited to accompany the guests, or they may have something else to do. ”
Liu Tong couldn't sit still when he said this: "I have to inform the fifth brother, he is smart and can see things more thoroughly." ”
Chang Runzhi smiled: "It seems that you revere King Rui very much. ”
Liu Tong said seriously: "I have gotten along well with my fifth brother since I was a child, he is a few years older than me, and he takes care of me everywhere. Don't look at him, he seems to like to study some wood and do some carpentry work all day long, but his intelligence is unmatched by anyone I have seen. ”
Chang Runzhi's heart moved, and for some reason, after listening to Liu Tong's words, he felt faintly uneasy.
She suppressed the worries in her heart, and also got up with Liu Tong, and said, "If you have something, go and get busy first." When I return to the Prince's Mansion tomorrow, I will send someone to bring you the tea leaves. ”
Liu Tong responded with a smile, walked towards the door quickly, and went to the teahouse counter to habitually pay the bill, but was told by the shopkeeper that someone had already paid.
Liu Tong looked back, Chang Runzhi was standing by the screen and smiled at him.
She asked Yao Huang to prepare the silver early, and paid the fee in advance after entering the teahouse.
Liu Tong shook his head helplessly and said softly, "Then I'll go." ”
After some distance, Chang Runzhi couldn't hear him, but he could see the shape of his mouth.
She nodded, stretched out her hand and shook it, watching Liu Tong leave.
Then she looked around at Chang Ou, who was sitting under the storytelling table and listening to the storytelling, before turning back to the previous screen private room.
Wei Zi was grinning at Chang Runzhi's silly music, squeezing his eyebrows and making a strange appearance. Chang Runzhi didn't bother to take care of her, stared at her, and finally let the girl be honest.
Yao Huang knelt and sat and added tea to Chang Runzhi, who sat cross-legged, frowning and meditating.
She somewhat understands Liu Tong's so-called "unwillingness".
It is not so much that he looks down on the prince and thinks that he will not be a Ming monarch in the future, but that he is complaining about King Rui.
He thinks that among the people he has come into contact with since childhood, the smartest is King Rui.
is also a prince, the prince's ability is mediocre and can only play intrigue and trickery, how can he be a wise king?
He should be the master of the Ming Dynasty in his mind...... It's King Rui.
Chang Runzhi suddenly felt that his body was cold, and he was scared into a cold sweat.
She didn't know if Liu Tong realized that he had such thoughts.
But no matter what, this seed of consciousness has already sprouted in his brain.
Sooner or later, he will come to his senses.
And then......
And then what?
Chang Run's heart tightened.
Does King Rui know what he thinks like this?
Or, does King Rui really have no ambition for that position?
Chang Runzhi felt as if his heartbeat was speeding up.
King Rui is not an irrelevant person to her, he is the son-in-law of the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion and her eldest brother-in-law.
King Rui was a little different, and the first person affected was the concubine Niangniang in the palace, and the second person was Princess Rui, followed by the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion.
Chang Runzhi pursed his lips.
"Girl." Yao Huang hesitantly called her, "You and the Nine Emperor Princes ......"
Chang Runzhi came back to his senses and looked at her.
"Do you want to report the matter between you and the Nine Emperor Princes to your wife?"
"What is the matter between me and the Nine Emperor Princes?" Chang Runzhi asked rhetorically.
Yao Huang opened his mouth slightly, a little puzzled: "You ......"
"I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, what's the hurry." Chang Runzhi shook his head amusedly: "Today's matter, you two have to keep your mouths shut and don't talk about it everywhere." Especially you, Wei Zi. ”
Chang Runzhi nodded Wei Zi's name: "I want me to hear that you chew the root of your tongue, you are good-looking." ”
Wei Zi nodded hurriedly, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Girl, will you become the princess in the future?" ”
Chang Runzhi hung his head slightly and was silent.
Will she become a princess?
Where would she know?
Let it be.
Chang Runzhi served the tea, let Yao Huang open the screen, and also listened to the excitement on the storytelling table in the lobby.
When Chang Ou had heard enough and the temperature began to drop, Chang Runzhi took Chang Ou back to the Hou Mansion.
Chang Ou pestered her and had dinner in her courtyard, and Ai Ai looked at her again.
Chang Runzhi said with a smile: "The third sister remembers, I know to go to your aunt to talk to your aunt about you." Go back. ”
Chang Ou was relieved and ran away like a monkey.
