Twelfth, refusal
Regarding Wei Changning's death, the imperial court blocked all the information, the emperor personally came forward, and all the subordinates of the Pingnan Wangfu who were present at the time cut off their tongues and sent them to the imperial tomb as hard labor to live in the dark, as for the other people who saw the fight at that time, except for Zhao Hai is Zhao Lie, the king of Pingnan, there was no one else, the father and son were severely reprimanded by the emperor and punished for three years.
Except for these people, the only one who saw Wei Changning lying on the ground covered in blood was Wei Cheng.
However, Wei Cheng ...... Rong Zhao felt very regretful in his heart when he thought of this name, and he thought countless times that if he hadn't stopped him at that time but let him rush into the Pingnan Palace, would the result be different? Wei Changning may not die, and things won't be so bad.
Rong Zhao lazily leaned on the editor-in-chief's couch and looked at the raindrops under the eaves of the corridor in a daze.
It's really strange to say, since the New Year, it hasn't rained a drop of rain, and since that day when the Jingzhao Mansion was on fire and Wei Changning died, it has rained for three days in a row. In the past three days, Rong Zhao did not leave the courtyard for half a step, and every day except for sleeping at night, he just sat under the eaves of the porch and watched the rain, and did not even enter the house to eat.
"Childe, it's too humid this day, let's go into the house." Mei Ruo brought a bowl of hot rice porridge to persuade.
"Alas! Wei Cheng must have hated me to death. Rong Zhao sighed for the first time.
"If Wei Gongzi really broke in at that time, it would be difficult to ensure safety. Now at least the Wei family still has his bloodline - look at the Zhou family, the funeral of the little boy Zhou has not yet been done, and the people in the side branches have already made trouble. One by one, they are all vying to come over, just like grabbing silver, I heard that there are two more families fighting, and no one is laughing to death. Mei Ruo shook her head.
"Silver? Yes, it is more important to grab a future than to grab a silver - but who can say that it is not a dead end? One Zhou family, one Wei family. Rong Zhao carefully calculated from his heart, the Zhou family was naturally the people of Queen Zhou, but the Wei family was the power of King Rui. After this competition, Queen Zhou suffered a lot, and the losses on King Rui's side are not clear! Carefully calculate this account, or King Su earned it. Thinking of this, Rong Zhao couldn't help but curse again.
Someone at the gate of the courtyard was talking, and he couldn't really hear it in the sound of the rain, and Rong Zhao didn't care. Mei Ruo looked up and saw Mama Song holding a big oil-paper umbrella to protect Zhao Mu all the way, and hurriedly reminded: "The prince is here." ”
Zhao Mu walked to the bottom of the eaves, and Mei Ruo and the others hurriedly stepped forward to say goodbye. Rong Zhao had no choice but to get up lazily and bow forward.
"I haven't been out for the past few days, and my complexion is really not good." Zhao Mu looked at Rong Zhao's face and frowned.
"Anyone who rains is going to get moldy. Where did the good looks come from. Rong Zhao lazily turned around and looked at the rain curtain under the eaves.
"Then what are you still doing under the eaves? You shouldn't be able to stand the moisture. Zhao Mu said, and looked back at Song Momo.
Song Mo Mo hurriedly said: "The slave asked someone to stew lotus leaf barley porridge, which is the best way to remove moisture." ”
Rong Zhao didn't answer or look back, as if he hadn't heard. Seeing this, Mei Ruo hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "There is Mama Lao, give the porridge to the slave maid, the slave and maid take it to the small stove and heat it, and the son can bring it when he wants to drink it." ”
Mama Song borrowed the donkey from the slope and nodded with a smile: "Okay, the health porridge that Miss Mei said the day before yesterday I like it very much, but it's a pity that I forgot one thing, and I have to bother the girl to tell me." ”
"It's very easy, Mama and the slave." Mei Ruo dragged Mama Song down as she spoke.
Under the eaves, only Rong Zhao and Zhao Mu were left.
"After standing for half a day, my legs are sore." Zhao Mu sighed.
Rong Zhao still didn't look back, looked at the rain curtain blankly, and said lightly: "That's not a chair, the prince just sits down, and you are not a guest here, so why make all those false courtesies." ”
"This king's body is not as good as you, the humidity here is too heavy, can Lao Rong Gongzi come into the house to talk?" Zhao Mu sighed.
Rong Zhao then turned around and followed Zhao Mu into the house.
It was March, and it was said that it was not cold for a long time, but it rained for days and the humidity was too heavy, Rong Zhao looked at Zhao Mu's face and complexion that had become more and more thin because he hadn't slept well in the past few days, frowned, and instructed Lan Yun next to him: "Go get a charcoal basin, and then ask Mei Ruo to make a bowl of hot old ginger wolfberry soup." ”
A warm smile suddenly appeared in the corner of Zhao Mu's eyes, and he said softly, "Thank you." ”
"You're welcome, you and I are grasshoppers on a vine." Rong Zhao said, slowly sitting down on the couch.
Zhao Mu sighed lightly and persuaded: "I was quite relieved to hear that you haven't gone out for the past few days, but I didn't expect you to make yourself like this." The responsibility for Wei Changning's affairs is not yours, you don't have to blame yourself so much. ”
"It's useless for me to take responsibility, anyway, Wei Changning is dead, and Wei Cheng has no father." Rong Zhao sneered.
"Rong Zhao." Zhao Mu couldn't see Rong Zhao's appearance the most, so he frowned and said, "How do you need to let go?" ”
"It's useless for me to let go. As long as Wei Cheng can survive this hurdle. Rong Zhao said, and sighed lowly.
Zhao Mu was extremely helpless, and his heart inexplicably turned up a sea of vinegar, thinking that Wei Cheng and Rong Zhao were just a few sides of the relationship, and Rong Zhao was so sad about his affairs, which showed how much he valued him in his heart. And he likes him so much, people just sit in front of him like this, but he doesn't have any self in his eyes and heart.
"Since I can't let go of my heart, in a few days the funeral in Zhennan Houfu will be hanged, I will accompany you to condole, and visit Wei Cheng by the way." Zhao Mu said softly.
"No need." Rong Zhao shook his head and said self-deprecatingly, "Wei Cheng may not want to see me. ”
As soon as he said this, Zhao Mu was even more unhappy, because he frowned and said, "What does he not want to see you?" Wei Changning was not killed by you. ”
"You don't understand." Rong Zhao originally wanted to talk to Zhao Mu about the troubles in his heart, but suddenly found that the thoughts of the two people were not on the same line at all, and he had no desire to talk for a while.
"I don't understand." Zhao Mu was already angry, "You are now full of pretending to be Wei Cheng, how can I understand?" ”
Rong Zhao wanted to refute, but he felt that what Zhao Mu said was quite reasonable, and now his heart was indeed Wei Cheng's business, Wei Cheng's bloodshot eyes, Wei Cheng's tense brain, and Wei Cheng's heart-rending roar...... Even in the middle of the night, Rong Zhao was awakened by the roar, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Rong Zhao." Zhao Mu saw that Rong Zhao was deep in thought again, so he interrupted his thoughts without giving up and asked, "Do you like Wei Cheng?" ”
"yes." Rong Zhao did not shy away from admitting that Wei Cheng's stupid boy was indeed quite likable, thinking of the scene where he laughed with Xu Jian and the three of them before, a warm smile appeared on Rong Zhao's face, "I like him very much, I also said that I want to learn martial arts from him, and let him take me to the battlefield to kill the enemy......"
After hearing that affirmation, Zhao Mu was like being struck by lightning, so that he couldn't hear what Rong Zhao said later, and he only had one sentence in his heart that kept repeating: Rong Zhao likes Wei Cheng, Rong Zhao likes Wei Cheng, Rong Zhao likes Wei Cheng......
Mei Ruo came in with the old ginger wolfberry soup, and saw Zhao Mu and Rong Zhao sitting on both sides of the couch, Rong Zhao was crooked on the pillow thinking about his own thoughts, while Rui Wang Ye was pale and frowned, looking very angry.
"Lord Wang, the weather is wet and cold, you have braved the rain all the way, drink some ginger soup to get rid of the cold on your body." Mei Ruo said, put the tray on the kang table between the two, and handed a bowl of ginger soup to Zhao Mu.
"No need." Zhao Mu said, glanced at Rong Zhao coldly, stood up and walked out.
Mei Ruo hurriedly got up and said, "Is the prince going back?" The slave maid just left Mama Song here, grinding red bean flour together, preparing to make red bean cake for you and your son to taste. ”
"No need." Zhao Mu was still these three words, and the person had already arrived at the door while speaking.
"Slow down, the slave will bring you an umbrella." Mei Ruo glanced at Rong Zhao, who was still indifferent, and secretly sighed and turned to get the umbrella.
However, how could Zhao Mu wait for her, she had already left in the rain silently.
Huff.
That night, Rong Zhao's mood seemed to be better, he didn't mention Wei Cheng's matter again, and went to bed early after eating half a bowl of porridge for dinner.
Mei Ruo cleaned up the outside and came in to look at him, and saw that he was not sleepy after all, just lying on the bed and looking at the top of the tent to think about things, so he sat down in front of the bed and asked in a low voice: "How did Gongzi offend Lord Rui today?" Look at how angry he was when he left. ”
"He didn't say anything, he was angry himself, what can I do." Rong Zhao said lightly.
"It's not the slave who said the son, the prince is really good to you. What to eat and wear, everything is to pick the best and ask someone to send it over, I don't know how busy I am these days, the prince also came to see you today, you just have to say a few words to him, why did you still run away from popularity? Mei Ruo sighed.
Rong Zhao sneered and laughed when he heard this: "How can I listen to what you mean, should I be grateful for Lord Rui's favor?" Is your son-in-law the kind of woman who dresses up all day long and waits timidly for a man to come?! Is it? Is it?! With that, Rong Zhao reached out and knocked on Mei Ruo's head again.
"No, no, no! You're not! You are a husband who stands up to the sky. Mei Ruo hurriedly smiled.
"Isn't that the end of it! He held me at home like a little girl, so am I really a girl? Rong Zhao flattened his mouth and sighed in a low voice, "Although we are really ...... But, you have to keep your chest up and say no! Otherwise...... Click! Rong Zhao said, raising his hand to his neck.
"However, Lord Rui is too pitiful. I just braved the rain and walked away today, and Mama Song didn't catch up with the umbrella! Mei Ruo said distressedly.
"It's okay, you can't die in a rain. It's better for me to be cruel to him today than for two people to go crazy together and not be able to clean it up in the end. Rong Zhao snorted nonchalantly.
