Chapter 164: A Token of Love
Just when Shen Rong couldn't figure it out, at noon on the second day, a third-class maid hurriedly ran through the West Chamber and asked the Shen family to go out to receive the order.
They were planning to return to Jiangbei in a few days.
At yesterday's banquet, the Empress Dowager Qi wanted to reward Shen Pingcheng, and the gold, silver and jewelry had already been sent away, and what holy decree would be received by their Shen Mansion.
Even Shen Pingcheng was confused, so he hurriedly asked the Zhao family to call out several children.
With the servant, all the way to the front hall, the people in Prince Ying's mansion were already standing on one side.
Even though Shen Rong lowered her eyes, she could still feel a burning gaze burning on her.
She raised her eyes slightly, Gonggong Li, who was holding the holy decree in her hand, pinched her orchid fingers, and when she saw that everyone had arrived, Fang raised her voice, unfolded the holy decree softly, and said in a sharp voice: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, Shen Rong, the daughter of Shen Pingcheng, is dignified and generous, gentle and quiet, praising Jia and pure and good, then Shi Jiazhi, now canonized as the county lord, the name is Jing, Qin this!" ”
Shen Rong knelt on the ground on his knees and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
This is the reward given to her by the emperor, the county lord......
It's really hard to predict that she will be canonized as the county lord.
She was a little stunned.
Gonggong Li covered his mouth with a smile like a flower: "Lord Jing, accept the order." ”
Shen Pingcheng was happy in his heart, and shouted in a low voice to remind: "Ah Rong! ”
"Thank you, Lord Longen, the courtiers take the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Shen Rong took this heavy holy decree with both hands and bowed.
After Gonggong Li explained the matter, he smiled and helped Shen Rong: "The county lord Jing is an auspicious person, and the old slave will have to rely on the county lord Jing more in the future." ”
Although Gonggong Li's words were so, Shen Pingcheng still dotted Gonggong Li and several other little eunuchs.
Shen Rong smiled.
Prince Ying sent someone to send the people in the palace away.
As soon as the people in the palace dispersed, the Zhao family walked over quickly and asked nervously: "How could the emperor suddenly make Ah Rong the county lord." ”
"Ah Rong saved the Empress Dowager Qi, and Ah Rong deserves this reward." Princess Ying smiled and explained to Zhao.
Shen Rong held the holy decree in his hand, and the thoughts in his mind were full of clarity.
Divine Decree ......
If Xie Yu calculated that the emperor would reward her like this, it would be ......
She couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Xie Yu, who was standing there motionless, and looked at him intently.
This county lord was given to her by Xie Yu.
She received the will, and the princess and princess Ying said to her gently: "You will follow me into the palace in a while to thank you personally." ”
Shen Rong retracted his jaw slightly.
When Shen Pingcheng and the Zhao family went to the Weiguo Mansion, she called out to the county lord of Anning.
Taking advantage of her not to ask, the county lord of An Ning spread his hands first and pushed it cleanly: "I don't know about this." ”
"County Lord, do you want me to say, are these all coincidences?" Shen Rong asked her helplessly.
"This ......" The county lord of Anning was a little embarrassed, and even the frowning appearance was like Xie Yu, and she said: "You shouldn't ask me about these, let's go to the school." ”
Before Shen Rong could respond, the county lord of An Ning had already turned around and walked in front, and she followed.
On the empty and spacious school field, the sound of crackling and colliding came through the fence, and in the hot summer, this little shaded school field was like an oven, and even the ground under his feet was scorching.
By the time they entered the school grounds, Xie Yu was already making tea in the only townhouses in the school grounds.
The faint scent of tea wafts out with the breeze.
The county lord of Anning glanced at Shen Rong with a smile and said with a smile: "It seems that my brother is going to invite you to tea." ”
Shen Rong raised his eyes and said nothing.
Lord An Ning led her into two blue brick houses with unclosed doors.
The interior is very simple, with a pear wood square table and several wooden chairs, and an earthen kang made of earth on the east side.
On the west side, there are some copper basins and cloth towels for washing.
Compared with the other courtyards of Prince Ying's Mansion, it is simply like a slum.
The county lord of Anning said: "My father said that people who practice martial arts have to endure hardships, so it is not very comfortable here. ”
Shen Rong nodded, and at the same time pulled his gaze away, falling on Xie Yu, who had a straight back and sat upright.
He looked down his eyelids, his slightly curled eyelashes were clear in the sunlight, the lines of his side face were softened, and he held the cuffs of the other hand with one hand and filled the two cups of tea in front of the table in an orderly manner.
Lord An Ning looked at the only two teas on the table, her brows furrowed almost invisibly, and when Shen Rong sat down, she turned her face to look at the maid waiting at the door.
The maidservant waited for a moment, and immediately stepped forward and said, "County Lord, someone has just passed the word that the princess is in a hurry to see you." ”
The county lord of An Ning muttered: "What is so urgent." With that, he took a step and left.
In an instant, only Shen Rong and Xie Yu were left in the room.
"I should thank you for today's events." Shen Rong thought, it seemed that she didn't know what to say except to thank her.
Xie Yu's eyebrows showed a smile crookedly, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he lowered his eyes and swept to the teacup: "Drink tea first." ”
"It's tea from White Horse City." The taste had already made her recognize that this was lotus tea, no matter what Xie Yu's original meaning was, but it was because of this cup of tea that Shen Rong made her relationship with Xie Yu a lot closer.
She laughed, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said with certainty again: "It's lotus tea."
"Yes, this is what I brought from White Horse City, I heard Shen Huo say that this lotus tea is the tea that you people in White Horse City love to drink, I think you like it too."
His voice was like the melodious sound of the piano, and like the turbulent flowing water, gently sliding through her heart, she looked down at the tea cup in her hand, her eyes reflected in the tea, she saw herself smiling.
She clenched the teacup and said: "The taste of lotus tea is not strong, there is a faint fragrance, very natural taste, I like it very much." ”
Xie Yu took a sip of the teacup and nodded.
Seeing that Shen Rong put the tea cup in his hand, he picked up Shen Rong's words.
"You don't have to thank me for today's events, I don't deny that I want you to be rewarded, but I don't know that the emperor will make you the county lord." Xie Yu's words fell, and he raised his eyebrows slightly: "You take care of me." ”
Shen Rong smiled: "It's not scruples, it's worry." ”
"Prince Ying's Mansion intends to win over the Shen Mansion, you don't have to worry." Xie Yu knew what Shen Rong was afraid of, so he simply spread it out and said.
Prince Ying's Mansion wooed the Shen Mansion, Shen Rong thought about it, and what she was thinking about now was whether the Shen Mansion should stand on Prince Ying's side.
The road of King Rui seems to be closer than that of Prince Ying.
She wasn't sure if she could change the facts in this life, with her own strength, she looked at Xie Yu's dark eyes: "Maybe ......" She changed her words, and her eyes shone brightly: "Second Brother Xie, didn't you arrange those assassins?" How could you have expected otherwise. ”
Xie Yu smiled arrogantly and evilly, pursed his thin lips, and said in a low voice: "Maybe I'm the same as you." ”
"How is that possible!" She almost subconsciously blurted out, and what Xie Yu had said before appeared in her mind, and suddenly understood, why Xie Yu always understood and always knew.
I only heard Xie Yu echo softly: "Yes, how is it possible." ”
Shen Rong was surprised but also happy, she is no longer a person to bear this, with Xie Yu here, she is down-to-earth, the Shen Mansion should still choose Prince Ying's Mansion.
She and Xie Yu looked at each other and smiled, feeling unusually cordial.
She spoke up slowly: "No wonder...... So what the hell is going on with Hachi? ”
"Xiaoba has always been a member of Prince Ying's mansion, but you have been one step ahead in this life." He said lightly.
Hearing this, she smiled wryly.
I heard Xie Yu say again: "He is not as powerful as you think, in the previous life, it was just Prince Ying's Mansion for him, every time he allowed others to do something, Prince Ying's Mansion completed a thing for him, but in this life, he has made progress." ”
Shen Rong opened his mouth in astonishment, in the previous life, Master Xuanqing in the eyes of the world turned out to be like this.
She was speechless.
Both of them were silent for a moment, and Xie Yu spoke a little uncomfortably: "Ah Rong, you and I both know what is going to happen next, your father is now planning to marry the Zhou Mansion." As I said, our Ying Prince's Mansion wants to win over the Shen Mansion, you don't want to enter the Zhou Mansion, and I happen to lack a lady. ”
Speaking of this, Xie Yu stopped, and when he looked closely, the roots of his ears and neck were already flushed with a faint flush.
His eyes were full of tenderness, "Prince Ying's Mansion and Zhou's Mansion, your father should know how to choose." ”
For Shen Rong, marrying Xie Yu, she did not suffer a loss, although she was only in a cooperative relationship, but when she heard Xie Yu's words, her heart still couldn't help beating quickly.
She smiled and said: "In this way, I will become a thorn in the side of the daughters in the capital, a thorn in the flesh." ”
After all, she has to get married, instead of letting Shen Pingcheng and the Zhao family choose a husband she has never seen, she might as well marry to Prince Ying's mansion, at least, she is the same as Xie Yu, and she has things to work hard for.
"Ah Rong, you should give me a token of love." Xie Yu suddenly said softly to Shen Rong.
Shen Rong looked down at herself, how could she be a token of love, she asked rhetorically, "You have to give me yours first." ”
"You have my token of love." Xie Yu said seriously.
Listening to Xie Yu's words, Shen Rong himself was blinded, and couldn't help laughing: "When will I have your love token." ”
"A pendant with white marble inlaid with red coral beads." Xie Yu said word by word: "The piece you took is mine." ”
There are only three white marble pendants inlaid with red coral beads in this world, which were made by Prince Ying for his three children, one for each person.
Shen Rong only knew that the pendant of the white marble inlaid red coral beads belonged to Prince Ying's mansion, but she didn't expect that the pendant of the white marble inlaid red coral beads in her hand would be Xie Yu's.
She took out this pendant with red coral beads inlaid with white marble from her arms, and she kept it because in the future, this jade pendant could take silver from the bank, and she spread the jade pendant on her hand and showed it to Xie Yu.
Xie Yu nodded, picked up the pendant with white marble inlaid red coral beads, and stroked it gently, "You haven't looked at it carefully for so long?" There is lettering here. ”R1152
