Chapter 159: The Trap

Soon after Rong Zheng decided what to do with the box, a new little girl named Glass came over with a big red sprinkled gold note and held it to Rong Zheng.

Rong Zheng asked a little puzzled, "Who sent this in?" ”

Glass said: "I don't know, it was sent by the person at the back door, and I don't know who the slave is." ”

Rong Zheng hesitated, opened the golden paper, and hurriedly glanced at it, the handwriting on it was very unfamiliar. She only read two sentences before throwing the golden note, her face sank, and she said sharply: "In the future, these unknown things are not allowed to be brought to me again." ”

The glass thought that if she ran this errand and met a good day on her grandmother's birthday, she could get a reward. Who would have thought that there was no reward and not to say, the grandmother said that she would turn her face. She was young, and it was the first time she was on an errand in front of her master, and when she saw Rong Zheng getting angry, she was so frightened that her face was like earth, and she quickly knelt down and said yes tremblingly.

Immediately, Rong Zheng asked Fu Cui to make a wax and burned the gold paper. The people around him were confused, but seeing that Rong Zheng was angry, no one dared to ask more.

This incident was just a very small episode in Rong Zheng's fifteenth birthday, and she didn't pay much attention to it originally. On the second day, two proper people were sent to send the black-lacquered official suitcase back to the Tonghua Pavilion.

When the mother-in-law talked back, she told sΓΉ Rongzheng: "The princess was a little reluctant to accept it at first, and the slaves and maids told the grandmother about the princess's intentions before reluctantly accepting it, and said that this matter was a little inconsiderate and caused trouble to the grandmother." ”

Rong Zheng listened, diǎn head said: "Since it is done, there is nothing else to do, you have worked hard to run this trip." Go down and rest. In addition, Jean Ruyi gave the two of them a string of hard-earned money each.

This time it was unexpectedly smooth, it seems that there is something wrong with the contents of the box, at least when the decision was made to give this gift, the couple had disagreements, and even had an argument. Now it seems that only doing it is right.

Rong Zheng was as far away as possible from the palace. The princess came down again and again, or sent someone to invite her to the Tonghua Pavilion as a guest, but she always found various reasons to shirk it.

The princess was hot, and when she saw that Rong Zheng didn't appreciate it, she realized that she had spent so much effort to make friends before, and it seemed that it was in vain. The lord of Duanhui finally saw some clues, and in the past, he saw Rong Zheng and Gu + dǐng + diǎn + small + said, .2β‰ 3.oβŠ•s_(); The clan is quite able to say a few words, the Rong family and the Gu family are in-laws, why did they suddenly get separated, I couldn't hold back my curiosity, and asked Rong Zheng: "I heard that the Gu family and your family are still in-laws, and I saw you and her in the past, but what is this, why did you suddenly not get along?" ”

How dare Rong Zheng bring out Mu Jing's suspicious words, she is unspeakable, and she can't explain the truth well.

Seeing that she seemed to have something unspeakable, the county lord wondered if the Gu family had offended Rong Zheng somewhere, but Rong Zheng herself refused to say, and she didn't continue to ask.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and Rong Zheng took a nap.

Ruyi walked over with a box, and saw Rong Zheng sitting in front of the dressing table under the window to make up in the mirror, and stepped forward to laugh and said, "Grandma." This thing was brought in from outside, and it was said to be for grandma. ”

Rong Zheng glanced back, only to see an inconspicuous black lacquer box, and wondered, "Who brought it in?" ”

Ruyi said: "It was sent by someone from the palace." ”

Rong Zheng didn't look at it, and said instinctively: "I don't want it, you let people send it back as it is." ”

Ruyi smiled: "Grandma, don't you look at what's inside?" ”

"What's there to see. I told you that you don't have to bring these things to me, and you just won't listen. ”

Ruyi opened the lid of the box by herself, took out the contents of the box, handed them to Rong Zheng, and said in a gentle tone: "Grandma, the slave knows that you have commanded, and I dare not send anything else in front of you." But you don't recognize this thing, do you? ”

Rong Zheng heard Ruyi say this, looked up, and saw Ruyi holding an emerald green embroidered purse in his hand. The high-quality Hangzhou silk, the blessing pattern of the pinched gold thread, and the concentric knot of blue and gold. She was stunned for a moment, reached out and held the purse in her hand, and stared at it for a long time before asking, "Where are the others in Meritus?" ”

Ruyi said: "Uncle is still in the northwest camp and has not returned." But there is also a letter in it, which must have been written by the uncle to grandma. Ruyi handed the letter with fire paint to Rong Zheng again.

Rong Zheng's hand holding the purse did not let go, and went to open the letter again. When the handwriting inside appeared, Rong Zheng's expression froze, but she still read the letter completely.

Ruyi smiled and asked, "Did the uncle say when he would return to Bianliang?" ”

Rong Zheng's whole face changed, his face was pale, and he was inexplicably frightened. She closed the letter with a slight trembling hand, not knowing what to say. There are some things that she can't tell the maid around her.

Ruyi saw that the situation was not quite right, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, what happened to the uncle?" ”

Rong Zheng muttered, "No, it's okay. She put the purse on the tip of her nose and sniffed it gently, the incense in it was prepared by the county lord, and she put it in with her own hands. The solemn and elegant scent of sandalwood is like the scent of his clothes.

Rong Zheng seemed to be a little impatient and paced around the room, and she could no longer calm down. After she turned around four times, she finally calmed down, and said with a panicked expression: "You ordered to go down and help me prepare a sedan chair, I want to go out." ”

"Yes! Who else does Grandma want to follow? ”

Rong Zheng thought that this matter could not be known to more people, and the county lord could not sue him, so he groaned and said, "You go with me, and then I will tell Xiao Lu to come in." ”

Ruyi hurriedly went to assign things.

Rong Zheng hurriedly instructed the maid to come in and change her clothes for going out and comb her hair again.

Rong Zheng hurriedly went out, and even Jinxiu Courtyard didn't have time to report. She sat in the sedan chair without a master, and as the swaying of the sedan chair, her mood became even more worried. Ruyi accompanied him, and saw that Rong Zheng had a dense layer of sweat beads on his forehead, so he hurriedly took a silk to wipe Rong Zheng's sweat, and said: "It's a little stuffy here, why don't you close the curtain." ”

Rong Zheng shook his head.

It's not yet the weather to play a fan, so Ruyi doesn't have a fan in his hand. I had to take a handkerchief to fan the wind for Rong Zheng.

Rong Zheng was stunned for a while, and then said to Ruyi: "Ruyi, you are what I brought from the Rong family." Now that Shisu is out, only you and I are the closest. I will not hide these things from you today, no matter what happens today, I will ask you to keep them secret for me. In the future, no matter who asks you, you are not allowed to confide half a word, you know? ”

Rong Zheng hurriedly went out, Ruyi only knew that the matter was urgent, she followed what Rong Zheng commanded, and did not dare to ask anything, and now when she saw Rong Zheng say this, she immediately said: "Grandma rest assured, the slave will definitely keep the secret for grandma, and never mention it to anyone." ”

Rong Zheng diǎndiǎn head, she gently held Ruyi's hand. Ruyi realized that her grandmother's palms were wet and a little cold.

In less than an hour, the sedan chair entered Caojia Lane.

Finally, he got off the sedan chair in a courtyard with carved beams and paintings. Someone immediately came up to greet him.

"Grandma is here."

Rong Zheng glanced at it, and saw a woman who kindly stretched out her hand to Rong Zheng, wanting to help her get out of the sedan chair. Rong Zheng lowered the corners of his eyes, and finally handed his hand firmly to Ruyi's hand.

The woman was still smiling, and said, "Grandma, please sit in the flower hall." The prince was not here at this time, so he went to Qingfeng Lou to drink, and the old slave immediately sent someone to report the news. Grandma, please wait a minute. ”

Rong Zheng pursed his thin lips, frowned slightly, and entered the flower hall under the guidance of the woman.

Rong Zheng stepped into the threshold, and saw the magnificence of the room, although it was not as large as the flower hall of the Tonghua Pavilion, but the furnishings and makeup were extremely luxurious. She walked gently on the Persian carpet, but she felt like she was stepping on cotton.

The maid invited her to sit down in the first rosewood chair in the west, and soon another maid came to invite her to tea with tea fruits.

Ruyi accompanied Rong Zheng, but kept looking around, and secretly sighed in his heart, this house is really beautiful. Not to mention anything else, even this carpet ordinary people are afraid that they can't afford to use a small piece, not to mention that it still covers the entire house. What is called wealth, this is wealth.

Rong Zheng's heart was like a drum, and she was not in the mood to eat tea, she just wanted to see Mu Jing immediately and ask what was going on, so she couldn't help but ask the maid again and again when Mu Jing would come back, and the maid only said that she had sent someone to invite.

Rong Zheng's eyes finally fell on the big blue and white goblet in the corner of the wall, in which there were several peony flowers in full bloom, pink, white, red, very blazing.

Later, when he heard the bell ringing, Rong Zheng glanced up, only to see that it was already two o'clock in the morning, and why didn't Mu Jing come back. She didn't have the time to wait.

After another quarter of an hour, I could hear the voices of people outside. Rong Zheng stood up slowly, and sure enough, he heard someone report: "The prince is back." ”

Rong Zheng looked over, and sure enough, he saw Mu Jing coming from outside, surrounded by a few maids and servants behind him.

Mu Jing's wide crimson silk robe wrapped his round body tightly, like a pile of walking mountains.

Mu Jing strode over, and because he was walking too quickly, he was slightly panting.

"What kind of wind blows my sister-in-law here, it's really a distinguished guest. It's rude, please forgive your sister-in-law! Mu Jing's smiling face was a little cynical.

Rong Zheng bowed slightly, but did not salute, and said a little eagerly: "Sudden visit, I have something to ask." ”

Mu Jing laughed: "It's easy to say! Say! ”

Mu Jing sat on the top with a big thorn, one hand resting on the table, revealing a fat and short hand, and a huge jade wrench on his thumb.

Since entering the door, Mu Jing's mind has been all on Rong Zheng. He was very satisfied with Rong Zheng's arrival, and he made the right move, not afraid that she would not be on the road. It's just a teenage girl, and when the time comes, he coerces and seduces, and he is not afraid that she will not give in.

Rong Zheng has been standing, her heart is up and down, her heart may be wrong today, but she has already stood here and has no regrets, there are some words she should not ask in person to understand, she is unwilling.

"Shizi, I have a few words I want to ask!"

Mu Jing nodded slightly and said, "Okay, it's just that it's rare for my sister-in-law to come here, and I can't be rude." I had people prepare food and drinks, and how about we talk while we drink? ”

Rong Zheng was slightly angry, but he also held back his feelings and said calmly: "I'm not hungry, I don't eat anymore, or it's important to get down to business." ”

"Haha, sister-in-law doesn't even want to reward this face? I don't know anything. ”

Rong Zheng gritted his teeth in anger, and he couldn't help Mu Jing right now.

Mu Jing saw Rong Zheng bow his head and was silent, and said in his heart that this little lady really has a bit of meaning, in the past, he didn't know how many graceful women he had seen, in terms of appearance, in terms of style, Rong Zheng was not outstanding, but Rong Zheng's identity made Mu Jing very right, and he wanted to hook up with Rong Zheng, no matter what means he used, he wanted to taste this fishy.

No one in the room spoke, and Rong Zheng wanted to ask about the purse, but seeing Mu Jing like this, he knew that he would not speak lightly.

After half an hour, the two little eunuchs came in with a kang table of wine and food and put them on the kang in the second room. Another maid came in with a flask.

Mu Jing got up first, made a gesture of invitation, looked at Rong Zheng and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, it's rare for you to come to me, and I will treat you well if you say anything." Please. ”

Rong Zhengzi's face swelled, and he said slightly angrily: "I'm not hungry, just ask the prince for a few words, and ask the son for advice." ”

"Yo, sister-in-law refuses to appreciate her face."

"I just ask you what's going on with that purse and why did it end up in your hands?!" Rong Zheng is still very stunned.

Mu Jing laughed: "Sister-in-law wants to know the answer, then accompany me to have a glass of wine first, as soon as I am happy, I will tell you everything." ”

"Shameless!" Rong Zheng said in her heart that this road would not work, and she had other ways to inquire, so she called Ruyi to leave.

Unexpectedly, the door has been tightly surrounded by several little eunuchs in Tsing Yi, and it seems that she can't get out today. Rong Zheng secretly screamed that she shouldn't have acted recklessly. She looked back at Mu Jing again, Mu Jing was no longer in the flower hall, and she went to the second room in a blink of an eye.

Ruyi whispered to Rong Zheng: "Grandma, now I have to seek self-protection first, if I anger the prince, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to get out." Grandma, you first have a little trouble with him, and then you will have the opportunity to act. The current situation is not good for us. ”

Although Rong Zheng felt some regret in her heart, she shouldn't have stepped into this courtyard lightly and became a fish.

Mu Jing sat cross-legged on the kang, and there were four serving maids under the kang. He was drinking a little wine leisurely, and when he saw Rong Zheng coming in, he hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law is a reasonable person, and she won't be uninteresting." Sister-in-law, please take a seat! ”

A pair of dishes and chopsticks had already been set up on the opposite side, and the maid held a copper basin and a towel to invite Rong Zheng to clean his hands. Mu Jing took the initiative to pour a cup of pear blossom white into the cup in front of Rong Zheng.

"Sister-in-law, please take a seat!"

Rong Zheng still refused to sit, she glanced at the rhino horn cup, and wondered if Mu Jing had touched the wine. Mu Jing handed the glass of wine to Rong Zheng and said with a smile: "Come, sister-in-law, I didn't congratulate my sister-in-law in person a few days ago, and I made up for it all today!" ”

Rong Zheng didn't pick up the glass of wine for a long time.

Mu Jing laughed: "Sister-in-law, doesn't even have the guts to worry that I will poison the wine?" (To be continued.) )
