Chapter 424: Abduction

Almost as soon as An Ruolan and Wei Shao sat down in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion of the Splendid Building, Meng Sanshao rushed over on his hind feet and was directly introduced into the Drunken Immortal Pavilion by the shopkeeper.

After serving refreshments, the three of them sat down.

An Ruolan was not as direct as usual, but turned a corner and asked, "Third brother, how are my grandfather and grandmother doing recently?" ”

She didn't break it, and Meng Sanshao pretended not to know, so she only smiled and said: "It's all good, grandmother just talks about you from time to time, thinking that you go back to see her talk to her, and I also want to meet my grandson-in-law." ”

Hearing this, thinking of her maternal grandparents and aunts who loved and took care of her, An Ruolan was stunned.

Because of the succession to the big house, after getting married, she went to visit her mother's maiden house according to the number of etiquette, not that she didn't want to go to Meng Guofu to visit and ask for peace, but first, it was not in accordance with the rules, and secondly, she did not find the opportunity, plus the guard and punishment went to the expedition, it was delayed until now, she failed to go to the door to ask her grandparents and aunts and uncles, and she was really ashamed to think about it.

With guilt on her face, she said, "It's my sin, I should have taken Wei Xing to my grandmother early to say goodbye and introduce Wei Xing to her old man's house." ”

"I can't blame you for this, who let the Hu people suddenly attack, it's not easy for you to come here for this time." Meng Sanshao smiled understandingly, then his face turned grim, and said: "It's just you, you should also take the time to go back to see your grandmother, she is also worried about the expedition, and you have to persuade to be useful." ”

"I'll save it, I'll go back to visit my grandmother." An Ruolan nodded again and again.

Wei Shao said: "My brother is not there and I am there, I will accompany my sister-in-law in place of my brother, and I will also go to say goodbye to the old lady." ”

An Ruolan nodded gratefully.

Although the topic diverged. She still remembered the purpose of inviting Meng Sange over and restrained her mind. She stopped beating around the bush and asked, "Third brother." Is it wrong for you to come out rashly today? What if others misunderstand that Meng Guofu wants to return to King Gong? ”

had long expected that she was looking for herself for this matter, and when she heard this, Meng Sanshao raised her eyebrows and joked: "I said how much gossip you want to talk to me, wouldn't it be better to get to the point as soon as possible?" ”

An Ruolan's face turned red and said angrily: "I really miss my grandmother too!" ”

Although the main purpose is clichΓ©......

Meng Sanshao smiled, did not expose her, and said, "Don't worry, I naturally have my reasons for doing this." ”

No more hiding. He told her all the conversations with King Gong, and said, "You have also seen that with King Gong's attitude towards me today, he will not harm Meng Guofu. To be precise, it is precisely in order to keep the Meng Guofu in the chaos that I will do this. As for returning to King Gong, how do you think that it is the freedom of others, and Meng Guofu will only be neutral. ”

An Ruolan thought about it carefully and fell silent.

Now the Jin king's faction is being suppressed everywhere. There is almost no place to settle in the court, and you don't have to think about it to know that what King Gong will deal with next is the neutral faction, and as the mainstay of the neutral faction. is the in-law of King Jin again, and Meng Guofu will undoubtedly bear the brunt. At this time, if the Meng Guofu has enough use value. King Gong will definitely not touch it.

It is undeniable that impermanence has enough weight in King Gong's heart. He is a life-saving talisman of Meng Guofu, as long as King Gong can't find a little impermanence for a day. The Meng Guofu, which is related to the lack of impermanence, has a day of stability.

Although this move is very dangerous, it is extremely useful to seek stability in the midst of danger.

At the same time, however, there is another drawback to this move......

An Ruolan groaned slightly, and said in a low voice: "I understand what the third brother meant, but has the third brother ever thought about whether Meng Guofu can break up the relationship with King Gong afterwards?" ”

Meng Sanshao raised her eyebrows in surprise, obviously not expecting her to think so far-reaching.

Smiling, he shrugged his shoulders and said leisurely: "That's later, let's talk about it later, the most important thing is to solve the current crisis." ”

"......" An Ruolan was silent, and his heart said that if he believes your words, there will be ghosts.

Knowing that he had already made arrangements, she didn't ask any more questions, and instead talked about another thing that she was very concerned about.

"Third brother, have you seen Uncle Shizu?" Because she was involved in the mysterious uncle ancestor again, her curiosity became more and more vigorous, and she didn't ask clearly, she was really uncomfortable like a cat scratch.

Maybe it was because she changed the topic too quickly, Meng Sanshao couldn't react for a while, and was stunned before suddenly saying, "Uncle Shi? You mean uncle, I've seen it. ”

After that, he took the tea and sipped it lightly, covering the corners of his slightly twitching mouth.

An Ruolan didn't notice his abnormality, and then asked, "Then do you know how to find Uncle Shi?" ”

"I don't know." Meng Sanshao replied without hesitation, calm and composed.

An Ruolan stared at him for three breaths, and said slowly: "Third brother, my father-in-law said that Uncle Ancestor Shenlong saw the beginning and the end, although he couldn't find it, but he could contact him, do you know how to get in touch with Uncle Ancestor?" ”

Meng Sanshao showed a look of surprise, "Really? This is for the senior brother, I don't know. ”

An Ruolan squinted, always feeling a little strange, but she didn't know what was strange.

After a pause, she said: "Actually, I have something very important that I want to tell Uncle SΓΉ, so I want to ask the third brother to help me contact Uncle Shi and invite him to get together." ”

Hearing this, Meng Sanshao's eyes rolled slightly, and he said, "Why don't you ask your stepfather and my senior brother for help?" He knows more about my uncle's whereabouts than I do. ”

Seeing that he didn't eat oil and salt, An Ruolan was a little frustrated, and said, "Okay, I'll ask my father-in-law another day." ”

A flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she asked again: "Third brother, you said that we don't know the whereabouts of Shi Shuzu, what if Shi Shuzu is found by King Gong?" ”

"You don't have to worry about this, King Gong will definitely not find Uncle Shi." Meng Sanshao waved his hand disapprerovingly.

When pigs fly?

An Ruolan raised her eyebrows slightly, with the power of King Gong, how could she not even find anyone? Unless the master uncle is really an immortal, or it is a person who exists but does not save zΓ i.

People who save zΓ i and don't......

An Ruolan felt as if she understood something.

It seemed that he was scared by An Ruolan's question, Meng Sanshao did not sit for a long time, and asked An Ruolan to remember to go back to Meng Guofu to visit Mrs. Meng, and then get up and leave.

An Ruolan sent him out and sighed: "Third brother, how many more blind date banquets do you have to attend?" Today's young sons are in the group. Have you seen anything older than you? ”

Meng Sanshao is embarrassed, and it's not what he wants to participate. He was also forced.

An Ruolan said angrily: "You also serve snacks, don't always worry your uncle and aunt." ”

She could predict it. When I visited Meng Guofu another day, my aunt would definitely pull her to talk about it again.

Waving his hand, Meng Sanshao said with a humble heart: "I'll talk about this later." ”

Saying that, he slipped away.

An Ruolan looked at his back and sighed.

As soon as Meng Sanshao left, An Ruolan and Wei Shao also got up and went back to Weiguo Mansion.

On the carriage, Wei Shao asked in a low voice, "Why did you take Meng Sanshao's words just now?" ”

In the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, they asked me a lot of questions, and she didn't interject, but she listened for a long time, and she didn't understand. Completely unaware of what they were talking about.

An Ruolan smiled and said, "I'll tell you when I'm clear." ”

Wei Shao nodded thoughtfully, and then heard her ask, "Xiao Shao, do you have any medicine that can be identified?" ”

"Identification?" Wei Shao frowned, thought for a while, and said, "There is no identification, but I know that Second Brother Yan has spices that can track people's whereabouts, as long as they are stained, they can't be washed off for a few days." ”

An Ruolan's eyes lit up, and he nodded excitedly: "That's it!" ”

"Then I'll ask someone to go to Second Brother Yan to help you get some." Wei Shao said briskly.

An Ruolan smiled and thanked him. Thinking of something immediately, she rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "I think it's better for us to go on a trip in person, after all, it's to ask someone to help." It's better to be sincere. ”

She remembered what the second prince said to Xiao Shao when the Lantern Festival released the river lanterns, and the idea of matching came to her heart.

Hear the words. Wei Shao waved his hand absently, "It's not an outsider." If it doesn't work, I'll just go, you don't have to go. ”

"It's fine. Then it's troublesome for Xiao Shao to run. "An Ruolan is as good as a stream, anyway, her purpose is just to create an opportunity for the second prince to meet Xiao Shao.

Wei Shao didn't know that he was sold by his sister-in-law and friend, and he was still thinking about how to ask Zhao Yan out.

Back at Weiguo Mansion, just in time for the morning meal, the two of them had a meal, one went back to the room to rest, and the other went out to find Zhao Yan to ask for spices, and moved his muscles and bones by the way.

On the other side, Murong took the four sisters back to the Hou Mansion and let the four of them disperse on their own, while she herself went to tell the old lady about today's situation.

Murong didn't hide anything, and reported An Ruoxian's limelight to the old lady 1510, and the matter of being reprimanded by King Gong was 1510, and the old lady said lightly after hearing it: "It's better to be ugly than to be in the limelight, at most you will be ridiculed for a few words, and everyone will forget about it after a long time." ”

"That's what Mother said." Murong nodded in agreement. She thought the same way, so she didn't reprimand An Ruoxian's self-assertion at that time, but even so, this incident made her completely bored with An Ruoxian. She had never seen such an unruly concubine, in the final analysis, she was taught badly by the Meng family.

The old lady said again: "But a mistake is a mistake, whether it is a big mistake or a small mistake, you will be punished, and this matter will be handed over to you to deal with." ”

Murong respectfully bowed his head: "Yes, mother." ”

Hearing the news of being grounded, An Ruoxian didn't react at all, her heart was already numb with pain, and the small grounding could no longer arouse even the slightest ripple in her heart. Now she doesn't want to care about anything, she just wants to find a corner to hide and escape from this world.

It was only at this moment that she realized that she was no longer a simple friendship with Zhao Qing, under his gentle offensive, she unconsciously fell into his tender trap, but the way she woke up was too cruel, when she found out that she also liked him a little, but found that he was just using herself, how could she not be sad?

While being sad, she thought of Zhao Yan again, and was glad that she always put Zhao Yan first in her heart. This gave her wounded heart a little comfort. She deceived herself into forgetting Zhao Yan's rejection of her proposal, forgetting that Zhao Yan had said that there were already people she wanted to spend her life with, because only in this way could she feel better.

At the same time, Zhao Yan received Wei Shao's letter and went out to the appointment with spices.

In the suburbs, with green waters and green mountains, willows and flowers, Wei Shao and Zhao Yan held the reins and whipped and ran horses wantonly in the valley near the racecourse.

The hooves of the horses startled a forest of birds.

Stopping next to a mountain stream, Wei Shao turned over and dismounted, ran to the stream and picked up the cool stream water, washed his face, exclaimed, and said: "I have been reading accounts in the house all day, my bones are going to be stiff, and sure enough, I am the happiest to ride a horse." ”

Zhao Yan led the horse to her side and said with a smile: "You haven't gone to play with me for so long." I thought you had found something fun, but I didn't expect to be reading the ledger at home. I was also stunned. ”

Wei Shao pursed his lips and said, "You think I want to." You can't let my mother and An Ruolan be tired and tired, and I'm chic and comfortable alone, right? ”

"That's right." Zhao Yan rubbed her head with a smile, "Our Xiao Shao has also grown up, and we know how to be compassionate and caring for people." ”

"Nonsense." Wei Shao rolled his eyes and slapped his hand away, and snorted: "Ruolan said, the girl's family can't just let outsiders do anything to her, it will affect her reputation." ”

Zhao Yan froze, secretly regretted for a while, and asked, "Didn't you care about these before?" "And I'm not an outsider either. He added in his heart.

"I didn't care about it before, but now I have to pay attention, I also want to get married." Wei Shao raised his eyebrows and said with a grin.

"Really?" Zhao Yan smiled, and a dark light slipped under his eyes.

Wei Shao led his horse to the stream to drink water, and asked casually, "Second Brother Yan, why are you still not married?" I see that the other princes and children are hugged, aren't you in a hurry at all? ”

"Urgent, of course urgent." Zhao Yan released the reins. He drove the horse to graze, and then squatted down by the stream, washing his hands and saying, "But it's useless to be in a hurry, I can't just find someone to marry." ”

"That's just as well." Wei Shao nodded in agreement.

Zhao Yan saw that she didn't realize anything. Angry and anxious, he asked, "What about you?" Have you ever wondered what kind of husband you are looking for? ”

Wei Shao shook his head, supported his chin and sighed: "I don't actually have any requirements. As long as you can beat me and make me eat and dress well. However, Sheng Jingjing is a white-faced boy. I feel like I have to go back to the Northeast to find it. ”

Hear the words. Zhao Yan subconsciously retorted: "Who said that you can only go back to the Northeast to find it?!" "I fit the bill!

He didn't dare to say the latter sentence directly, and he was embarrassed to say it.

With a turn in his mind, he said: "Look, neither of us can find a partner, and we are not young anymore, rather than continue to worry the elders, it is better to make do with it, anyway, we are quite compatible and know each other very well." ”

Wei Shao turned his head to look at him with his face propped up, but did not speak.

This is the second time he has said such a thing, she can't be a joke, although she hasn't thought about being with him, but like he said, they get along and understand each other, and it's definitely okay to live together. The most important thing is that they are really not young, and instead of wasting time looking for a stranger to marry, it is better to find a familiar one.

In this way, they are indeed quite suitable.

And the second brother Yan also echoed her request for her husband.

After hesitating for a while, Wei Shao asked uncertainly, "You mean it really?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yan knew that she had figured it out, and immediately her eyes lit up, and she said, "This is a lifelong event, I won't joke with you." ”

Seeing that he was overjoyed, Wei Shao didn't notice that his face was hot, scratched his forehead and said, "Then I'll go back and discuss with my mother and Ruolan,"

"Okay." Zhao Yan grinned.

I thought it would take a long time for her to open up, but I didn't expect it to be so smooth! He knows that she doesn't have that kind of affection for him now, but if he catches someone first, is he afraid that he won't have time to grind slowly with her?

The so-called joy descends from the sky, and that's probably it.

Seeing his cheerful and happy expression, Wei Shao was also infected, grinning, and she couldn't help but raise a trace of anticipation for marrying him.

It wasn't until nearly dusk that Wei Shao and Zhao Yan returned to the city, perhaps because they pierced the layer of window paper, and when they separated, the two had a trace of reluctance, and the ambiguous and sweet atmosphere made both of them blushing and hot.

Zhao Yan wanted to send Wei Shao to the door of Wei Guofu, but was refused, Wei Shao said: "Don't be slimy, I'm not a delicate and frail lady, I don't need you to send it." ”

couldn't say anything, Zhao Yan had to separate from her at the city gate, and saw her go far before returning to the prince's mansion.

Wei Shao didn't have the word reserved in her cognition, she thought that since she had told Zhao Yan that she had done it quickly, she had to do it quickly, so as soon as she returned to Weiguo Mansion, she pulled Duchess Weiguo to talk to An Ruolan and told them what Zhao Yan said in the afternoon.

Duchess Wei Guo was taken aback and said, "You are really a blockbuster if you don't make a sound, why are you just getting along with the second prince?!" ”

Hearing this, An Ruolan couldn't help laughing.

Not to mention the Duchess of Weiguo, she was also shocked, although she had the heart to match, but their development was inevitably too fast, right? It's just that I went out to meet for the second time, and this is all to the point of talking about marriage. She didn't know whether to praise the second prince for his good means and eloquence, or lamented that her sister-in-law was too naΓ―ve and easy to deceive.

She heard that Xiao Shao was completely abducted by the second prince, but Xiao Shao didn't realize it.

Duchess Wei Guo naturally noticed it, but she was very familiar with the second prince, because she was not worried that the second prince was deceiving and teasing her daughter, but-

Frowning, Duchess Wei Guo sighed lowly: "I said that you are not in a hurry, you don't mention this matter sooner or later, but now you mention it, what do you want me to do?" ”

"Mother, is there any problem?" Wei Shao asked puzzled, and the joy on his face faded mostly.

An Ruolan thought about it, and quickly understood what her mother-in-law was worried about, and suddenly regretted her many things.

She glanced at Wei Shao and said, "Mother, this matter is not in a hurry, you are also tired today, so rest first." ”

"Hmm." Duchess Wei rubbed her forehead and waved her hand to signal them to leave.

Seeing this, Wei Shao's happiness in his heart was not left at all.

An Ruolan blessed her body and pulled Wei Shao away.

followed all the way back to An Ruolan's room, Wei Shao asked sullenly: "Ruolan, does my mother disagree?" ”

An Ruolan said comfortingly: "No, my mother understands the character of the second prince, and she will definitely not object to this family business, but now is the wrong time." ”

Yes, the timing is not right, now King Gong is in charge of the government, not to mention that the officials in the court are on the edge of the abyss, even the princes are also struggling, the second prince and the Jin Wangfu have a great relationship with the Weiguo Mansion, presumably more embarrassed than other princes, if he marries the Weiguo Mansion at this time, I am afraid that King Gong will not let him go.
