144 [Informed and Dependent]

When Lin Zhiqi and Rong Ziqi returned to the Guogong Mansion, the lights had already been lit in the mansion. The two went directly to Chang Songyuan to greet Mrs. Rong, indicating that they were back.

At the gate of Changsong Garden, the two met Rong Ziming and Rong Zigao. After saying hello and seeing the courtesy, the two younger brothers deducted Rong Ziqi first, and before Lin Zhiqi entered the main house, Rong Zigao first asked breathlessly: "Third brother, did you take your cousin out to play today?" ”

Rong Ziqi nodded and said innocently: "That's right! Didn't you say you should take her out to play? ”

"Then why didn't the third brother tell us?" Rong Ziming said anxiously.

Rong Ziqi had an inexplicable expression on his face, "Why do you want to tell you?" Didn't I take her out to play? ”

"Because, of course...... Ah! Rong Ziming wanted to argue something, but when he saw Rong Ziqi tilting his head and blinking at him, he stomped his feet in annoyance and stopped talking.

"Then will the third brother take his cousin out to play these days?" Eiko asked expectantly.

Rong Ziqi scratched the back of his head and shook his head, "Peach Blossom said that I was so tired today that I won't go tomorrow." ”

"What should I do with the fourth brother?" Rong Zigao asked Rong Ziming in a low voice, "The deadline is almost up!" ”

Eiko came up and asked curiously, "What deadline?" ”

Rong Ziming immediately glared at Rong Zigao, "Shut up." Then he said to Rong Ziqi with a smile, "It's nothing, the fifth brother borrowed me something, and said that he would pay me back tomorrow." ”

"That's it! Are you alright? I'm going to say hello to my grandmother! Eiko said.

The two younger brothers let him go, just. The two of them got together again and didn't know what to say.

Rong Ziqi didn't even look at the two of them again, and entered the house with a smile on his face.

……

At night, South Wood Garden. In the main house, Mother Wu reported to Rong Ziqi one by one the young lady candidates that Mrs. Rong had seen these days.

"Lord Shizi, look at these portraits, or, find a chance for you to meet these young ladies in person, you can pick one you like." Mother Wu said with concern.

Rong Ziqi waved his hand, "You just need to pay attention to the movements on Cui's side." Grandmother's side. I'll get him to change his mind. ”

"This ......," Mother Wu hesitated, "but the prince has also reached the age when it is time to discuss marriage!" ”

"I'll arrange things. I know you're worried about me, but isn't it good to wait until I'm back to get married? Rest assured! The eldest brother and the second brother are not married. What am I doing in such a hurry? Rong Ziqi comforted. It's been hard for you and Yuzhu in the past few years, if it weren't for your help to cover up, you wouldn't be able to fool everyone. Not to mention finding someone from the Huo family to help. ”

Hearing this, Mother Wu wiped the corners of her eyes, "Shizi, where is this, you are a slave and maid who grew up, and seeing that you were harmed by the Cui clan like that, don't say just tell a few lies and send a message." As long as it can make you better, let the slave maid tear up the Cui family. ”

Rongzi couldn't cry or laugh. "Raw tear what she did. Now we still need the strength of the Cui family. And they don't necessarily end up in a good way. There was a hint of mockery in the tone of the last sentence.

In the previous life, the Rong family was destroyed, but the Cui family perished earlier than the Rong family, in the final analysis, whether it was Cui Jing in the court or the Cui family in the inner house, they were just chess pieces used by some people.

Rong Ziqi retracted his thoughts, and he didn't want to mention these anymore, "Okay, it's getting late, although there are no more people from the Cui family in Nanmu Park now, but you still have to be careful." Yuzhu, send your mother back to the room to rest first. ”

"No, no, let Yuzhu stay and serve, and the slave and maid will go back by themselves, just a few steps away." Mother Wu said, then retreated to the door of the room, and deliberately let go of her voice and shouted, "Don't tear it up, don't tear it up, you don't like these old lady to pick up for you." ”

Rong Ziqi couldn't help but smile bitterly, watching Yuzhu help Wu's mother out of the house, and threw a few paintings aside.

Looking at the pen and ink on the bookcase, he unfolded a piece of paper by surprise, and the pen was lightly stroked, and sketched on the paper.

When she came back to her senses, a girl with a smile on her eyebrows jumped on the paper, but, strangely, the girl's hand was not the silk handkerchief or paper fan that everyone drew on weekdays, but a string of rock sugar gourds.

"Yo! It's a similar drawing! Huo Huo didn't know when he stood at the table, and when he saw Rong Ziqi put away his pen, he praised it out loud. The tone was full of ridicule.

Although Rong Ziqi was shocked, he was still not in a hurry on his face, and he didn't seem to hear the meaning of the other party's words, so he just cleaned the brush and asked lightly: "Why did you come so late." ”

Huo Huo grinned, "It's already here, isn't it to watch you draw!" ”

Eiko glanced at the hourglass on the side, although he forgot about himself when he painted, but only a quarter of an hour had passed, but the person in front of him should have arrived half an hour ago.

Huo Huo still smiled when he saw it, "Isn't it that someone stopped me on the road!" ”

"The maid?" Rong Ziqi said.

Rong Ziyao is not in the mansion, he can find Huo Huo and stop him, and he doesn't make a big noise, it can only be Donghua.

"Is there anything wrong with her?" Eiko asked, and rolled up the dried painting.

"Don't worry, Miss Lin is fine." Huo Huo said casually, "She just came to ask me how I can better protect her young lady." It is estimated that she was scared of the fuss a few times before. ”

"And what did you tell her?"

"Well! Hehe, just let her not let Miss Lin out of her sight. Her martial arts skills are not bad, but she is often used by other people's tricks to divert the tiger from the mountain. ”

After listening to Huo Huo's answer, Rong Ziqi was noncommittal, skipped this direction directly, and asked about the purpose of looking for him today, "How did you find out?" ”

Huo Huo's face was solemn, "I've fought with those people a few times recently, but unfortunately, the other party is too cunning, and the clues are always broken again and again, but this time I found the Lucheng Army, and I said that I will definitely be able to find people out." I really didn't expect that they would be able to infiltrate people into the entire Xingzhou Army's top echelons. ”

Rong Ziqi was not surprised, if it wasn't for this, how could he have lost so badly in his previous life.

"Also, let me tell you that the Yang family has successfully swallowed that big fish, and the Jia family has been completely defeated." Huo Huo added, "Hehe, that Yang Weide said on the surface that he went to the capital to redress his grievances, but secretly he did a big deal!" ”

For this mocking words, Rong Ziqi's expression was still faint, and he changed the topic and asked, "Is there an answer to the letter I sent to my grandfather last time?" ”

Huo Shui shook his head.

Rong Ziqi sighed in his heart, he was a little reckless! However, apart from the Huo family, he really didn't know who else to trust and who to rely on. (To be continued......)
