Chapter Ninety-Three
The sun was slightly warm, but everyone's hearts were getting colder, for fear that another group of black-clothed people would jump out of this picturesque cherry blossom forest, and everyone couldn't stop anything. After listening to Zhuang Minhua's words, everyone hurriedly cleaned up and turned around.
Everyone returned to the warm pavilion with palpitations, and the maids who were waiting in the warm pavilion hurriedly served hot tea. Fang Yuzhen poured a cup of hot tea violently, only to feel that the chill just now gradually subsided. Zhang Ruqing's eyes rolled and asked Zhuang Minhua quietly, "What about the person who drugged?" You threw him on the side of the road again? Isn't it still the Hou Shizi of Xiangyang? ”
Zhuang Minhua didn't do anything, the green-clothed maid who was waiting for tea behind the two of them heard this, shook violently, the teapot in her hand couldn't be contained, and the poured tea suddenly overflowed and splashed on the table. Frightened, she hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, Zhuang Minhua waved her hand and asked her to clean up.
The green-clothed maid saw that Zhuang Minhua had no intention of punishing her, but she felt a lot more relieved. But his movements slowed down, wanting to hear what Zhuang Minhua had to say.
Zhuang Minhua didn't notice her, she just shook her head with Zhang Ruqing, she didn't know who had put so much effort into inviting her by such means. Zhang Ruqing was so curious that her heart was scratching an itch, but Zhuang Minhua didn't say it, and she couldn't force it.
If something like this happens, she must tell the eldest princess of Guangde to know. Zhuang Minhua decided to send someone to tell Concubine Rong first, and then Concubine Rong mentioned it to the eldest princess of Guangde.
Concubine Rong was surrounded by a group of noble ladies at this time, asking about the gradient floral cloth! She has a respected status and an indifferent temperament, and has lived at home for many years, and she is a little impatient to be complimented by everyone at this time. Mama Shang stood behind her and saw Zhuang Minhua's maid Xiaomi winking at her. After a pause, he called Concubine Rong's eldest maid, Cumin, to go over and take a look.
After Mama Shang watched the cumin pass, Xiao Mi whispered a few words to her, cumin's face suddenly changed, and she returned to Mama Shang in a panic and whispered the matter to Mama Shang.
Mama Shang also changed her face when she heard it, if this thing really happened, it would be a big deal. Before going out, the princess of the county handed over the princess to the princess, but the princess of the county had an accident only one day, and the princess of the county just didn't blame the princess. The concubine herself will not be happy. She asks Cumin to tell Honey. said that she knew about it, and waited, and the concubine would ask questions later.
Mama Shang took a gap and told Concubine Rong about the matter, and Concubine Rong's face changed slightly. The excuse is tired. Transferred to the back hall to rest. Someone first invited Zhuang Minhua and the three of them over. Zhang Ruqing and Fang Yuzhen don't know much. After talking about what they knew, Concubine Rong let them go down to rest.
Of course, Zhuang Minhua would not say that those people in black were poisoned by himself with "sad and crisp breeze", but because Meng Jinghan sent people to protect her by her side. I caught those people.
Concubine Rong looked at Zhuang Minhua with complicated eyes, whose eyes did her daughter-in-law obstruct? She was an ignorant woman in the inner house who couldn't figure it out, so she had to gently pat Zhuang Minhua's little hand and comfort her, "You have been wronged in this matter, no matter who it is, if you dare to touch the people of our Rongjun Palace, Han'er will definitely not let him go." After appeasing Zhuang Minhua for a few words, Concubine Rong sent someone to invite the eldest princess of Guangde.
The eldest princess of Guangde has a noble status, only people hold her, Wan is not tired of her, and at this time there is also a group of people who flatter her. Unlike Concubine Rong, she likes this kind of atmosphere. Seeing that Concubine Rong asked people to invite her, she thought that there was something wrong, so she went back to the back hall without hesitation. As soon as the two met, Concubine Rong did not let Zhuang Minhua repeat it, but only asked Xiao Tian Xiaomi to tell the matter again, Xiao Tian Xiao Mi is also the party concerned, and the sisters, you and I will narrate the matter one by one.
When the eldest princess of Guangde heard this, she was furious, and she dared someone to try to kidnap her nephew and daughter-in-law at the flower viewing party she held, which would put her face away. "Someone, please come over." At the same time, he asked Zhuang Minhua if anyone else knew about this matter, and this matter could not be leaked. First, it is not good for Zhuang Minhua's reputation; Second, it is also unfavorable to Baihuayuan.
Zhuang Minhua also knew what the eldest princess Guangde meant: "In addition to me and my two maids, there are also Fang Yuzhen, Fang Yushi's daughter-in-law, Zhang Ruqing, Zhang Shilang's daughter-in-law, and their two maids are present. When the eldest princess Guangde heard this, she comforted Zhuang Minhua while winking at the female officer beside her, and the female official was ordered to seal her mouth.
Concubine Rong lowered her eyes and drank tea, this Hundred Flowers Festival has been held for many years, and it is the first time that such a terrifying incident of entering the garden and kidnapping the princess of the county has occurred, will anyone dare to come when it is spread? Of course, the eldest princess of Guangde can't let such a thing spread, so she should let Fang Yuzhen and Zhang Ruqing seal their mouths.
The eldest princess of Guangde did these are what she should do as a landlord, if she can find out, it will be better, so that she can give an explanation to Rongjun Wangfu.
While speaking, Mei Yu, the eldest son of the eldest princess of Guangde, the prince of Jinyang, and Mei Yan came in together. The brothers are not alike, Mei Yu looks like her mother, Mei Yan is like her father, Mei Yu has a thick and steady temperament, and Mei Yan is a little frivolous. The two stood together, and Mei Yan was half a head taller than Mei Yu.
Mei Yu was in charge of maintaining order at today's flower viewing party, and Mei Yan saw her brother coming over and stopped by.
This matter is related to the momentum of the Eldest Princess of Guangde's Mansion, and Mei Yan can also listen to it. After listening to what happened, Mei Yu's vest was wet, and she hurriedly apologized to Zhuang Minhua, "This incident was my negligence, which frightened my younger siblings." "He is Meng Jinghan's cousin, and in his identity, he can still be called Zhuang Minhua's younger sister.
The eldest princess of Guangde held her forehead, "Boss, you have disappointed me too much in this matter." There was such a big mistake that the thieves got into the garden. Fortunately, your brother and sister didn't have an accident, if something happened, how do you say I can explain to your cousin and aunt? ”
Mei Yu is also depressed, didn't she arrange it like this in previous years? Why are thieves so good this year? He was just lazy and had a drink with a friend before he got into an accident. When his mother said this, he immediately thought of remedy, "My son immediately sent someone to martial law in the garden and searched it. ”
The eldest princess of Guangde was angry, pointed at him and scolded, "You are like your father, and your brain has been eaten by pigs? Isn't it blatantly telling others that something happened to Baihuayuan? ”
Mei Yu was scolded by her own mother pointing at her nose, and couldn't help but touch her nose and look at Concubine Rong pitifully.
Concubine Rong couldn't help laughing. She was also very annoyed by the news that her daughter-in-law almost had an accident in Baihuayuan, but Mei Yu was also the one she had seen since she was a child, and she was looked at by him with such small eyes, and couldn't help but plead, "It's no wonder that this matter is not the son of the world, Baihuayuan is too big; There are also many people participating today, and there are some people who can't take care of it for a while. ”
The eldest princess of Guangde didn't really want to scold her son, and when she saw Concubine Rong's persuasion, she immediately closed her mouth. only said: "You are acting quietly, how did you come in previous years." This is still the case this year. It's just that the patrol time is a little more intense. The patrolling people paid attention to see if there were any suspicious people coming in and out. If you find something, don't ask the reason, take it down first. I will bear all the consequences. He sent Mei Yan with him. Help my brother.
Mei Yu snorted down. The eldest princess of Guangde also instructed the female officials around her, "You send someone to take a look at the inner perimeter and the resting place of the female dependents, so as not to hide in it." Not good for the ladies and ladies. The lady took the order.
This strengthening doesn't matter, it actually asked the female official to search for the Hou Shizi of Xiangyang who was still waiting for people in a small building. When the mother-in-law found him, he actually wanted to jump out of the window and escape. But he was on the second floor, and he was likely to hurt himself by jumping down, so as soon as he hesitated, he was caught by his mother-in-law.
When the eldest princess of Guangde got the news, she almost couldn't even maintain her usual dignity, and she was so angry that she even dropped her favorite pastel landscape tea cup.
Debris splattered everywhere, and tea soaked the ornate gold-woven carpet. In addition to the shouting and scolding of the eldest princess of Guangde in the house, the female officials and maids in the house bowed their heads and did not dare to speak, and did not dare to make a sound. No matter how mellow and self-contained the eldest princess of Guangde was, she was also angry, "Okay! It's really annoying to think that the hundred gardens of the main palace are a place to hide filth and dirt. It seems that my self-cultivation in the past few years has made people look down on me, and I dare to destroy my Hundred Flowers Club, which is really a tiger and is not powerful, when I am a sick cat. ”
How the eldest princess of Guangde was angry, Zhuang Minhua couldn't see it, she and Concubine Rong had already set off to return home.
Back at Hanzhang Courtyard, Zhuang Minhua finished bathing and changing clothes before sitting down and drinking tea. Meng Jinghan entered the door, and when he received the news, he hurried back, and when he got off the horse, he didn't even see Concubine Rong, so he went straight to Hanzhang Courtyard. Ask as soon as you walk in the door. "Minmin, are you alright?" He held Zhuang Minhua's hand and looked her up and down, for fear that something would be wrong with her.
Zhuang Minhua saw that he was dusty, with unfinished snowflakes on his head, and looked out, but it was snowing again. Her heart was touched and filled with sweetness. "I'm fine, but Britney Xiaomi was injured because she wanted to protect me, so I let them go down to rest. And the two people you put next to me have also made meritorious contributions. ”
Zhuang Minhua pulled him to sit down and poured him a cup of tea with his own hands. Meng Jinghan took a few sips of the teacup, "I heard what happened to the sky, so it's okay if you're fine." I want to see who is so bold as to move my wife. A trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he was full of anger, feeling that what he had said was not detailed enough, so he asked Zhuang Minhua to say it once and asked some more details.
Seeing that Zhuang Minhua was really fine, Meng Jinghan first went to the bath room to bathe and change clothes, and after freshening up, he went to see Concubine Rong. Concubine Rong knew that he was worried about his daughter-in-law, although she felt uncomfortable, she didn't say anything, but asked him to accompany Zhuang Minhua more. Meng Jinghan agreed, accompanied Concubine Rong to talk, and hurriedly went to the study.
"How's it going?" Meng Jinghan called Tianying Tiandark, "Those people have been recruited, who sent them?" ”
Tianying said respectfully: "Those people are stubborn and refuse to recruit, it's just a matter of time." Thanks to the princess's medicine, they can't even crush the poison in his teeth, and we've already removed the poison from his teeth to kill himself. However, according to the observation of subordinates and others, these people may be a mixture of Daqi and Beiban. ”
Meng Jinghan was slightly distracted, "Mixed blood? That's interesting. Since they don't want to recruit, they will increase their strength, and it doesn't matter how many people they need to die. ”
"Yes." Tianying and Tianyin responded at the same time, and Meng Jinghan said again: "For the task of protecting the princess of the county, I will send four more people over, and you will do the things in hand first." ”
Tianying responded again, and Tianying said: "Lord County, the medicine of the princess of the county is really good, can you let the princess of the county take some out?"
Meng Jinghan's eyes flashed, and he waved his hand, "I'll talk about this later." If Min Min didn't say it, he wouldn't mention it, he was willing to give Min Min time.
Meng Jinghan waved his hand to tell them to retreat, and then called another person to come, and ordered: "Go to Baihuayuan to see if there are any clues left." "Someone came to take the order.
Meng Jinghan thought for a while, and then summoned his staff to start the discussion.
Ke Yuan stayed in Shiweizhai for a morning, and it took lunch to come out of Shiweizhai.
From the window, he saw that the Hundred Gardens were suddenly patrolling more intensively and frequently, and he knew that something must have happened inside, thinking that Zheng Yuan had succeeded. It's just that he made such a big fuss, don't confess him. Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to see Zheng Yuan being twisted and sent back to the Xiangyang Hou Mansion.
He sent a servant to Xiangyang Hou to ask about the situation, and when the servant arrived at the Xiangyang Marquis's mansion, Zheng Yuan was already kneeling in the ancestral hall. It turned out that although Zheng Yuan went to the place where the female dependents rested, he did not see Princess Rongjun, and was found by the eldest princess of Guangde, tied up and sent back to the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion. Xiangyang Hou felt very embarrassed and asked him to kneel in the ancestral hall. Zheng Yuan asked the little servant to tell him that his idea this time was not effective, and he could not clear the two until he got the deal between the two princesses of Rongjun.
Ke Yuan also agreed with this statement, although his purpose was to peek at the anti-layout map, but since he had promised something, he would definitely help Zheng Yuan do it.
Ke Yuan walked back slowly with his hands in his hands, not even noticing the snowflakes falling on him. Thinking of reading his mother's letter in the private room, he felt a little depressed. Although his mother said in his letter that he was doing well and told him to take good care of himself, he knew that his mother must report good news and not bad news.
When passing by a mahogany carved green-covered carriage, Ke Yuan occasionally looked up, and was suddenly shocked by the eager eyes of the young lady in the carriage. It was as if in an instant, he saw the original self.
It is said that the noble lady usually lowers the curtain when riding in the carriage, and it is the first time he has seen the curtain of the carriage like this, and he looks directly at the young lady outside.
Ke Yuan followed her line of sight, and suddenly understood, another young lady who couldn't enter the Hundred Gardens. is not very old, thirteen or fourteen years old, and her appearance is also beautiful, but the frowning brow makes her a little more delicate. It seems to be a pampered young lady.
Because of that look, Ke Yuan suddenly felt like getting acquainted with this young lady, and he walked over slowly. knocked on the wall of the carriage, "Does Miss want to enter this hundred gardens?" (To be continued......)
