Chapter 24
Before Meng Rou got married, she called Meng Yuan over, saying that she wanted to talk to her.
Everyone was leaving, and Meng Yuan thought that the closed door for her was enough, so she agreed and went around the other party's yard.
When she came, she was naturally greeted, looking at Meng Rou in a wedding dress from the outside, Meng Yuan couldn't help but start thinking, what kind of scene would it be when she got married?
Anyway, it should never be like this, although the gongs and drums are beating outside, everyone has no blessings for the bride and groom in their hearts.
"I asked to see me several times, but my sister didn't answer, and seeing that I was going to get married, my sister was finally willing to give me a chance." Meng Rou took the Zhu Hai in her hand and said with a light face.
Meng Yuan sat on the chair on the side and asked detachedly, "Does my sister have something to say when she sees me?" ”
"Of course, I have too much to say to you, and after this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have the opportunity to see you again, of course I have to say it." Meng Rou asked the maid to step back, looked at Meng Yuan for a while and said, "Do you know, I really envy you." She stared at her intently, and smiled miserably, "You have everything I want, in my life, I can't be myself in life, and I can't be buried next to the person I like in death, how sad is it?" ”
Meng Yuan's expression changed unpredictably and he didn't speak.
Meng Rou clasped her hands, paused for a while and said, "Do you know who I like?" ”
Meng Yuan said directly: "I'm not interested, sister, don't say it, although this is the Prime Minister's Mansion, but my sister should have heard about the trouble a while ago, this wall has ears, if there is any accident before marriage, it will not be good to make King Xian unhappy." ”
Meng Rou nodded a little distractedly: "You're right, I will no longer be the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion soon, but the concubine of King Xian...... You see, I can't do that right thing in my life, but you can get these easily, why? She looked at her again, "How am I inferior to you?" ”
Meng Yuan said modestly: "My sister is better than me everywhere, and even her mind is smarter than me." ”
She laughed at herself and said, "It's also true, I'm stupid to compare with you, how can I compare with you, I'm just a lowly concubine." ”
How do you talk like that? Why do you think of yourself so lowly? Although she is a concubine, she is also the daughter of the prime minister, how humble can she be?
Meng Yuan didn't know how to tell her, Meng Rou didn't say anything, and directly threw down Zhu Hai and said, "You can go." ”
Belch...... It's you who calls people to come, and it's you who drives people away, forget it, I'll take you back.
"That sister left first, I wish my sister a stable and smooth future." Meng Yuan said a polite greeting, and pushed the door out without hesitation, the maid at the door was startled when she saw her, and Aunt Lin was also late, but she didn't have a look at her, and stood quietly to the side, looking down at the ground.
It's okay, talking to her is tiring, and it's good not to interact like this.
Saying goodbye and leaving, Meng Yuan thought as he walked back, if Zhao Chen would go to King Xian's Mansion this time to congratulate King Xian on Concubine Na, would he come to her to see her?
Hey, it's unlikely, the last time it was so ugly, he shouldn't come again, and Daddy must have strengthened his defense, although it is unlikely that there will be a problem with his kung fu, but he just committed crimes against the wind, which is not his style.
said that she was very happy that Meng Rou got married, but because she didn't go to get married, she actually didn't have the opportunity to see Zhao Chen.
It's a sad realization.
Meng Yuan went back to his yard happily, and Meng Rou was almost packed up and ready to go.
When Meng Rou went out, Prime Minister Meng Cheng still went to deliver it.
Although Lin Wan has no status in the Prime Minister's Mansion, her daughter is married, and she still has to come out to send it away, but her position is very low.
Seeing her daughter get into the sedan chair and was about to step into the Xianwang Mansion with no future, Lin Wan's heart was also very worried.
Prime Minister Meng Cheng watched Meng Rou leave, without saying a word from beginning to end, and waited for the sedan chair to walk away, before he said coldly: "It was you who pushed your daughter into the fire pit, if she ends miserably in the future, you don't blame me for ignoring the relationship between father and daughter." ”
Lin Wan was stunned for a moment, and said stiffly: "How dare the concubine blame Xiangye, the concubine is terrified." ”
Prime Minister Meng turned around and entered the mansion directly, not eating her set at all.
Lin Wan looked at the place where her daughter's wedding sedan disappeared again, and the anxiety in her heart became deeper and deeper.
In the Xianwang Mansion, several tables of banquets were set up, and the banquets were all good colleagues from the Xianwang Department, as well as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Duan.
Meng Rou was carried into the house and should have been sent directly to the room, but halfway through, Zhou Jing, who was dressed up, suddenly appeared and blocked their way.
"Concubine Meng has finally arrived." Zhou Jing smiled and said, "Let this palace see what kind of girl is a water spirit, so that the prince is so worried." ”
Even if Meng Rou didn't know it well, as soon as she heard this voice, she knew that it was Zhou Jing, the concubine of the virtuous king, she was the eldest daughter of the imperial historian of the dynasty, as an unfavored concubine, she couldn't afford to mess with her, she could only be quiet and obedient.
Zhou Jing directly ripped off Meng Rou's hijab, so shocked that she forgot the rules for a while, and looked at her directly. Zhou Jing smiled sarcastically, said "But so" and left the hijab.
Looking at her back in a red palace dress, the resentment in Meng Rou's heart rose to the top.
Yiqiē is only because of her status and status, if she is a concubine, Zhou Jing will not dare to treat her like this, and she will not be just a side concubine...... Meng Yuan, Meng Yuan! Why was everything good given to Meng Yuan, and she was going to be bullied like this when it was her turn!
Xi Niang silently picked up the red hijab on the ground, hesitated for a moment and said, "Concubine Meng, let's cover it, the hijab must be lifted by the prince himself." ”
Meng Rou closed her eyes in despair, her eyes darkened, and it was the happy lady who helped her cover her head again.
One day, she will make the people who have bullied her ten times as much as she has been, and there will be a day......
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yongya Garden, heavily guarded.
Meng Yuan sat in front of the window, looking at the guards outside, his heart, liver and lungs hurt.
Or did she change into men's clothes and sneak out? Don't be funny, it's not a book. That...... She wrote a letter to someone to send to Zhao Chen? What nonsense, how could my father let people or send the letter away?
At this moment, Meng Yuan wanted to know who Zhao Chen's eyeliner was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so that she would have a microphone.
Feeling irritable, Meng Yuan simply took Fufeng to the garden to go around in circles, the weather is not very good today, seeing that it may rain at any time, Fufeng walked a few steps and said, "Miss, do you want the slave to go back and get an umbrella?" ”
Meng Yuan looked up and said, "It's okay, you go, I'll wait here." ”
Fufeng led the order to retreat, Meng Yuan was a little distressed, and a little anxious, and continued to circle in place.
When she turned to the second circle, a figure flashed in front of her eyes, and when she looked again, she was gone.
She was stunned for a moment, then looked behind her, and the figure again, this time not seeing nothing, but seeing a hand holding a flower in her hand.
"What I saw earlier, I drove just right, and I matched you."
Meng Yuan's beautiful eyes seemed to contain autumn water, and his expression that seemed to be disgusted when looking at people was particularly attractive.
Zhao Chen was originally serious, but after taking a look at her, he began to deviate, and it happened that her skin-like hand took his flower, and the skin touched his hand, just like someone tickling the tip of his heart with something.
"Why are you scary? Come and show up, go around and do something. ”
Holding the flower and smelling it, Meng Yuan smiled and bent his eyes, really looking forward to it, Lingxiu was natural.
"You weren't spinning just now." Zhao Chen whispered, "I learned from you." ”
Meng Yuan lowered his eyes to look at the ground, his gold-edged black court robe was solemn and dignified, which made him more and more angry and arrogant, and Ling Jun came out of the dust.
"How did you come here? Aren't you supposed to be in King Xian's Mansion now? Meng Yuan raised his head and asked.
Zhao Chen stood in front of her, more than a head taller than her, she was really small.
Zhao Chen didn't answer the question, only came with an unclear sentence: "When will you grow up?" ”
Meng Yuan couldn't help but say: "I'm not young, I'm already fourteen, I'm going to be in time next year, and I can ...... after that" It seems that the more he says, the more wrong it becomes, so let's shut up decisively, but it seems that it's too late to shut up, His Royal Highness King Duan has already been amused......
"Yes, this is indeed not a small calculation, and it is time to get married after the marriage."
After Zhao Chen finished speaking, he lowered his head and lowered his eyelids, as if he was also a little shy, but more precisely, it seemed to be excitement?
"Next year is a good year." He sighed, took her hand and said, "I asked Xing Shen to pretend to be me and the crown prince to congratulate the second emperor brother, only in this way can the prime minister relax his vigilance, otherwise this prime minister's mansion is now impregnable, even it will be difficult for me to come in." ”
Meng Yuan wanted to pull his hand back but failed, and couldn't help but say, "Why can't the prince move now...... You weren't ...... that before."
"Not so direct?" Zhao Chen raised his lips, but his smile was a little bitter, "It's just that it's not direct enough that I miss a lot of things." ”
"Huh?" Meng Yuan's heart tightened, frowned, Zhao Chen stopped immediately, let go of her hand and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhang Luo will go hunting in the paddock together in a few days, and many princesses will also go at that time, I will tell the imperial sister to call you together in her name, so as not to be hindered by the Prime Minister." ”
Meng Yuan smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that my father will also stop ...... like this."
"It doesn't matter." Zhao Chen smiled lightly, "My imperial sister, when you see her, you know that no one can refuse her." ”
Since he's said so, it's definitely fine.
Because of what happened last time, Zhao Chen wouldn't stay here for a long time even if he came, and this time he just came to inform her, and by the way, he would satisfy her hunger first. After he finished speaking, he stole an incense on her face and left, Meng Yuan stood in place with a red face, the sky just happened to be filled with thunder, and the rain fell without warning, and now some people are going to rain.
Meng Yuan was gloating, jumped up the steps of the corridor with a smile, stood inside and looked at the sparkling lake that was hit by raindrops not far away, she was in a good mood, but the person who walked slowly in the distance made her suddenly lose any mood.
Su Jichen rushed back from a distance with a light cyan oil-paper umbrella, as if he didn't expect someone here, he frowned from a distance, and his eyes widened when he got closer.
"Is that you?" He recognized her and said in surprise, "Why is Miss here?" After he asked, he reacted, dressed like this, with such a bearing, he can come and go freely in and out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who else can there be besides the Prime Minister's daughter?
"Xiaosheng is rude, and I hope that Miss will listen to Xiaosheng's explanation. This morning, Xiaosheng got the permission of the Prime Minister to study in the library on the edge of the small lake. I forgot the time, I didn't find that the sky was cloudy, and it was raining before I realized that Xiaosheng remembered that there were still books drying in the yard, so he borrowed an umbrella from Shu Bo in the library, and wanted to rush back to collect the books. Su Jichen apologized, and his tone and expression were very sincere.
Also, who would have thought that on a rainy day, a young lady would not stay in the house and run to the garden to play?
Meng Yuan didn't want to have anything to do with him, and he didn't want to impress each other more because of the festival, so he said directly: "It's okay, son, go back quickly, your books will be ruined when it rains heavily." ”
Su Jichen looked embarrassed, as if he was choosing between the book and Yan Ruyu, and in the end he made a long gesture again and left with an umbrella.
Meng Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and did not feel half wrong and dissatisfied with his choice of books over her. But Su Jichen walked a few steps and ran back, put down the umbrella and apologized again, and then really left.
Meng Yuan looked at the oil-paper umbrella leaning against the side of the corridor in a daze, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously tugged.
When Fufeng rushed back with an umbrella, he saw his young lady standing in the corridor with an oil-paper umbrella next to her leg.
"Huh?" Fufeng was puzzled, "Miss has an umbrella?" ”
Meng Yuan only said: "The umbrella of Shu Bo in the Library Pavilion, send someone to send it back, don't look for Yongyayuan, ask for the front house." ”
Fu Feng didn't understand it very much, and wanted to ask why, but Meng Yuan said directly: "Go back, don't ask why, if you ask again, I will marry you to the son of the former housekeeper." ”
Fufeng immediately shut up, really, is the maid so human rights (#""′) Okay, indeed......
At this moment, Zhao Chen was already sitting in the carriage, and he was about to return to Duanwang's Mansion.
He was leaning on the soft cushion to avoid recuperation, and someone outside the carriage reported: "Lord Wang, I just got the news that Miss Meng and Na Su Jichen met in the garden. ”
Zhao Chen opened his eyes suddenly, and his face was a condensation that he couldn't even detect.
"What did they do?"
"It was raining, so Su Jichen left the umbrella for Miss Meng and left."
"Oh?"
"Miss Meng's maid Fufeng quickly took the umbrella, and Miss Meng asked her to send the subordinates of the former house to send the umbrella left by Su Jichen to the library pavilion."
Is that so?
Zhao Chen's expression softened slightly, his headache was about to crack, and his thin lips couldn't help but purse and let out a "tsk".
"But the prince has a headache again?" The man continued, "Master Yunshui has boiled the medicine, and the prince can drink the medicine when he goes back." ”
Zhao Chen let the man retreat with a "hmm", and the surroundings were quiet again, and his mind was still groggy with pain, and the names Su Jichen and Meng Yuan were still in his mind.
I don't know when it started, but he was so unconfident.
