Chapter 439: Vegetable Stealing Accident
Xiao Qi heard several Mid-Autumn Festival customs from ordinary people outside, and one of them was particularly interesting.
Bai Qingting was ready to try.
So after sending the sky lantern with Junziheng, he also dragged him out of the back door of Jun's mansion secretly.
Jun Ziheng asked helplessly, "What is this for?" Why don't you go through the front door, but quietly through the back door? ”
Bai Qingting motioned to him to whisper: "Because what we have to do later is to do it quietly, not to make noise!" ”
Straight out of the capital, Bai Qingting and Jun Ziheng came to the holy land of stealing vegetables that Xiao Qi said.
From a distance, you can see that the high places are full of red lanterns, and Bai Qingting said strangely:
"It's so bright, how can you steal vegetables?"
Hearing her say this, Jun Ziheng finally understood what was going on.
Legend has it that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, if an unmarried boudoir woman can steal vegetables from other people's vegetable gardens, it means that she will meet a wishful husband in the future.
I don't know where it came from, but anyway, it has been passed down from generation to generation among the people.
The nobles of the royal family or the eunuch family would not do such a thing, and the matter of stealing vegetables on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival was only passed down among the people, and some folk boudoir women secretly did it.
Jun Ziheng asked: "Who told you that there is such a custom on Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”
Bai Qingting turned around and pointed to the juniors who followed behind him: "Xiao Qi said!" Isn't that right? ”
Xiao Qi was suddenly pointed at by Bai Qingting, and his heart was a little porphyry, thinking that there was something wrong that made his son-in-law angry.
However, Jun Ziheng didn't say anything to Xiao Qi afterwards, and he didn't even look at it, which made Xiao Qi very relieved.
Jun Ziheng said: "Yes, yes, but you are already married to me, what are you doing to participate in such stealing vegetables?" ”
Bai Qingting was surprised: "Who said I was going to steal vegetables?" ”
Jun Ziheng raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it?" ”
Bai Qingting immediately denied it with confidence: "Of course not! I have such a wishful husband as you, how can I participate in such a grand event as praying to the moon god to send a wishful husband? ”
After saying that, she shook her head firmly, indicating that she definitely didn't have such a mind.
Seeing that Jun Ziheng gradually smiled.
He just asked casually, even if she had such a mind, he would never give her such a chance, not to mention that she didn't have such a mind, she was just playful.
Since Bai Qingting wanted to come and join in the fun, Jun Ziheng naturally had no reason to stop him.
The holy land of stealing vegetables is actually about two acres of vegetable fields, and the green seasonal vegetables are reflected in the red lanterns.
Although in order to make it easier for the girls to steal vegetables, the surrounding area did not cause the night track and field to be difficult to walk and accidentally fell, and the lanterns were hung so that the girls could see clearly without carrying the lanterns, but the girls' demeanor was also enough as if they were going to steal vegetables.
couldn't help but laugh, and it didn't take long to laugh again.
Bai Qingting combed the woman's sideburns, and there was a gentle and jade-like gentleman Heng standing beside her, she couldn't go down to the vegetable field, so she had to stand on the side and watch from afar, looking at the girls in the vegetable field who looked like they were cautious and couldn't help laughing, she couldn't help but look very happy, and the corners of her mouth were always smiling.
Jun Ziheng saw her smiling like this, and let her go, thinking that it was worth coming to such a trip on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Suddenly, the unexpected happened!
The lanterns on the other side of the vegetable field were all extinguished, and the girls who were stealing vegetables in the vegetable field suddenly screamed.
The little characters have surrounded the two of them,
Where there are lanterns nearby and are still lit, only the small dirt slope where Bai Qingting and Jun Ziheng are standing remains.
The small dirt slope was the high and the only bright spot, and the girls immediately rushed to this side.
Bai Qingting frowned: "What's the matter?" ”
Jun Ziheng subconsciously clenched Bai Qingting's hand: "Let's go back!" ”
It's a gut feeling.
He thought someone was coming at him and her.
Bai Qingting grabbed Jun Ziheng, who was about to leave: "You can't ignore them!" ”
Jun Ziheng said: "They will be fine!" ”
Bai Qingting asked, "How can you be so sure?" ”
Jun Ziheng frowned and did not answer immediately.
Bai Qingting asked again: "Do you think such an accident is coming at us?" ”
Seeing that she had already guessed, Jun Ziheng nodded his head:
"Well, that's possible."
Xiao Er hurriedly said: "Young lady, the son is right, the slave also thinks this matter is very strange, let's go home quickly!" ”
Xiao San also said: "Young lady doesn't have to worry about these girls, the son must have other arrangements!" ”
Bai Qingting looked at Jun Ziheng: "What arrangements do you have?" ”
Jun Ziheng said: "Xiao Yi and Xiao Si stay, and when they are sure that these girls are safe, they will come back." ”
Xiao Yi immediately appeared: "Yes, Childe!" ”
Xiao Si also responded: "Yes, Childe!" ”
There are two people, Xiao Yi and Xiao Si, who left the aftermath, Bai Qingting Fang relieved himself to follow Jun Ziheng down the small dirt slope and retreated to the suburban path, where the carriage of the Jun Mansion was stopped, and only one was guarded by the groom of the Jun family.
After getting into the carriage, the groom immediately drove the carriage to the capital.
Xiao Er, Bai Qingting, and Jun Ziheng sat in the carriage together, while Xiao Qi and Xiao San sat on both sides of the groom, running wildly in the carriage all the way.
Jun Ziheng expected it to be true.
Before the carriage arrived at the capital, let alone entered the city gate, dozens of black-clothed people surrounded it on the official road that was still more than 100 zhang away from the city gate.
Bai Qingting lifted the curtain and looked out, feeling that she was probably very close to the man in black and some messy assassin in her life, and she had to appear from time to time for her to dispel it.
If this rebuke had been before she became pregnant, she would have had nothing to complain about.
But now it is different, she is pregnant, and she has not passed the first three unstable months, she must raise the baby quietly and honestly, instead of going under the knife.
As if seeing her thoughts, Jun Ziheng lowered the curtain and said:
"Don't look at it, these people are left to the little characters to deal with."
Xiao Er had already left the carriage early and fought against Xiao Qi and Xiao San.
The groom didn't know how to fight, and even his hands were shaking, but he still guarded the carriage curtain door tightly.
Bai Qingting said: "There are dozens of black-clothed people, if their skills are only average, they are only afraid of ......."
Jun Ziheng held her hand: "There are also little eight, little nine!" ”
This surprised her, and Bai Qingting asked:
"Didn't you say that Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu are on a mission?"
Jun Ziheng said: "They finished their task and came back, but you were resting at that time, and they didn't dare to disturb you, just because there was something outside, I sent them out, and when we secretly went out of the king's mansion through the back door, they had already come back and followed us out." ”
She was a little stunned.
She didn't even know?
They are also two of her four big girls, although they are not as familiar with her as Xiao Er and Xiao Qi, but they are also her people!
Bai Qingting was a little unhappy: "Then why didn't they show up after following them all the way?" And you, why didn't you talk to me? ”
Listening to her questioning tone, Jun Ziheng explained:
"They followed all the way and didn't show up, just in case of this situation, in the case of the enemy in the dark, our people can't all be exposed in the light, Xiaoyi is in the dark This point is not a secret to our opponents, he knows how many of our people there are, which people, and even knows the skills of these people, I let them hide, just to hide some strength, so as not to mess up."
It makes sense.
Every time the words that came out of his mouth were always reasonable, so that her heart that wanted to find a hawthorn at the beginning was always wiped out invisibly.
He hid it from her, and secretly arranged for Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu to hide in the dark, also for the safety of the two.
With this in mind, she really couldn't say anything more about asking.
Bai Qingting asked with a little unhappiness in his heart: "What do you mean by 'he'......?"
She looked at him and didn't say the man's name.
But he knew, and nodded to confirm her guess.
Bai Qingting sighed slightly: "I don't know what he thinks?" In fact, if he wanted to, he could wait until His Majesty abdicated, so that he could succeed to the throne smoothly. ”
Jun Ziheng said: "The world is always unpredictable, what he is afraid of is this" unpredictable", not to mention that His Majesty's mind has not been thoroughly understood, you used to serve in front of the emperor, do you think Your Majesty is really completely satisfied with him as a prince?" ”
Completely satisfied?
Of course not.
But as far as all the princes are concerned, at least the emperor is still relatively satisfied with Long Lang.
Bai Qingting said: "Just because of this little 'unpredictable', he was afraid, and then took risks, in the end, if he wins, if he loses, then he really loses more than he gains!" ”
Jun Ziheng noticed that he heard the sound of killing outside, and said:
"In the past, when the queen was still in the middle palace, he was still a little more trustworthy, but now the queen is in the cold palace, he is planning for himself, but he is ......"
I just don't know why Long Lang is staring at her tightly?
I don't know when Long Lang actually calculated the people who wanted to rob him!
Jun Ziheng didn't say this, but only thought in his heart about how to pull Long Lang off the throne as soon as possible.
His words did not make Bai Qingting curious, even though her ears were full of swords clashing and screaming in pain, she still asked quite casually:
"Just what? Why don't you say it? ”
Jun Ziheng tapped the tip of her nose and said, "It's nothing." ”
With that, he lifted the curtain and looked out, and she looked out as well.
In the night, Xiao Er, Xiao Qi, and Xiao San are easy to recognize in normal clothes, but Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu, who have not been seen for a long time, are dressed in black night clothes, which is also to facilitate hiding in the dark.
This will be a mess, and Bai Qingting wants to see where their figures are, which is really a bit of an eye-wrenching effort.
Jun Ziheng lowered the curtains, and there was another faint yellow light in the carriage in front of her.
There was an oil lamp on the low table in the middle of the carriage, which was very small and delicate, and was fixed to the table by a depression similar to a card slot, and it did not fall or die no matter how fast it ran and ran.
Bai Qingting looked at it curiously, but before her eyes could get closer, the groom suddenly shouted, and she was so frightened that she sat back in her seat.
Jun Ziheng also frowned, got up and lifted the heavy curtain to look out.
The groom felt movement behind him, so he looked back and saw that it was the gentleman who said busily:
"Childe, hurry up and get into the carriage!"
Jun Ziheng's eyes fell on the horseman's right arm that had been slashed, and then looked at the number of black clothes, and his heart suddenly had a measurement.
comforted the groom for a few words, and let him take out the hemostatic scatter and gauze from the car, and after the groom said that it was okay, Jun Ziheng simply said:
"Tie your right arm, and when you go back to the city, you will have the strength to catch the car."
It's obviously well-intentioned, but it's not for his own sake.
Bai Qingting saw Jun Ziheng for the first time, and his kindness was so awkward.
After he tied the gauze for the groom and went back to sit in the carriage, Bai Qingting asked:
"I remember that it was Shui Bo who drove the carriage for you before, but I didn't see Shui Bo again when I came back this time, where did he go?"
Jun Ziheng's eyebrows twisted slightly, and then said:
"Shui Bo's son is not angry, he was trapped by others, he lost nothing, he came back to the door to find Shui Bo, Shui Bo took his savings, and gave it all to his son, but only two days later, his son came to the door again, saying that he lost tens of thousands of taels in the gambling house, let Shui Bo think of a way, if he couldn't hand over the lost silver taels, the people in the gambling house would cut off his son's hands......"
Speaking of this, Bai Qingting faintly felt that it should be a precursor to something bad about to happen.
Sure enough, I heard Jun Ziheng say: "Where is Shui Bo who has tens of thousands of taels of silver for his son to take to return to the gambling house, so his son suggested that as long as Shui Bo reports my whereabouts every day, the people in the gambling house will let his son go." ”
Report his daily whereabouts?
This kind of thing can be big or small, although he is always protected by small characters, but if someone deliberately sets a trap, he is very easy to be injured and even killed!
Bai Qingting looked at the lights of Douda: "I didn't expect his hand to reach the subordinates in the Jun's mansion...... Did Shui Bo listen to his son? ”
The gentleman lowered his eyes and looked gloomy.
Bai Qingting felt that it was probably because Shui Bo was not good.
Jun Ziheng said: "No, Shui Bo has been a coachman for me for more than ten years, and when I was still very young, Shui Bo was very protective of me, where would he do such a thing to betray me?" ”
Bai Qingting said: "That ......"
Jun Ziheng said: "Shui Bo refused to do this, his son cried and shouted, it was useless to threaten with his life, and finally Shui Bo personally went to see the owner of the gambling house, he thought about begging for it, let the owner of the gambling house let his son go, but since that day, Shui Bo has not come back......"
By the time Jun Ziheng noticed it and asked Xiao Si to investigate and find Shui Bo, it was already too late.
Both Shui Bo and his son died in the gambling house.
Bai Qingting comforted: "Don't be sad, Shui Bo...... In the next life, I will definitely be reborn in a family that is either rich or noble......"
Jun Ziheng said: "I don't want Shui Bo to be rich and glorious in his next life, I just want Shui Bo to be peaceful and happy in his next life, live a life in peace and stability, and enjoy his family life, and don't get involved in this kind of whirlpool of power and throne because of anyone......"
He said in a deep voice, his expression indifferent.
But she thought, his heart must be very painful.
More than ten years of friendship, even if it is not a father and son, it is probably like a father and son, not to mention that Shui Bo has taken care of Jun Ziheng for more than ten years, and finally died for Jun Ziheng.
Such a fate, if it were her, she would probably remember Shui Bo's kindness for a lifetime. (To be continued.) )
