Chapter 397: Calculation
This girl looks a little dumbfounded.
After being reminded by Luzhu, Lu Qingrong remembered that he had just come to Lijuan's side to serve, named Ling'er.
"Our girl wants to bother Mrs. Shizi to go to Lichun Courtyard and say that there is something important to discuss."
Ling'er was very well-behaved, and she didn't forget to explain, "According to the girl's meaning, I originally wanted to come here in person, but the grandmother next to me insisted that the wind should not blow during the confinement ......"
Lu Qingrong smiled and raised her hand, signaling that she didn't need to say any more.
Lijuan didn't come over in person, but Lu Qingrong was very lucky.
Otherwise, if it reaches the emperor's ears, it will seem that his shelf is too big.
I laughed in my heart, and suddenly felt that I was thinking too complicated, and the emperor had every opportunity, so he shouldn't be unable to get along with such a trivial matter.
As everyone knows, the emperor is really so cautious.
At this time, in Qinyi Courtyard, Mrs. Wu was looking at the "Women's Ring" in front of her with an iron face, puzzled.
This is exactly what the emperor "rewarded" her just now.
At first, Mrs. Wu heard that the emperor had a reward, and she was overjoyed, thinking that the queen mother helped her speak in front of the emperor.
When she saw that it was actually a women's ring, she was dumbfounded, and she was stunned for a long time before she remembered Shane.
The people in the palace didn't even leave half a word of explanation, and left directly.
No matter how hard Madame Wu racked her brains, she couldn't think of anything that had angered the emperor recently.
After being punished by the emperor last time because of the "misunderstanding" of going to Muxi Hutong to deliver medicine, Mrs. Wu has been cautious and thinks that she is a man with her tail between her legs.
If there was any conflict, it was yesterday at the gate of Richunyuan......
But in the end, he was forcibly returned to Qinyi Courtyard by Yu Linwei. It's yourself who has been wronged!
Suddenly, Mrs. Wu seemed to notice something unusual.
It's not like she hasn't done anything really excessive over the years. But they can survive peacefully, and for more than ten years, they have always been calm.
But the recent incident, as soon as it is related to that Lijuan, it will immediately be blamed to varying degrees, and it is all directly from the emperor.
Last time, it even affected the Queen Mother and An Lehou. No, it's Amleber now.
She vaguely remembered that she wanted to use Lijuan's affair to bring down Jiang Xuan. Amber refused without even thinking about it.
Mrs. Wu had to focus on Lijuan and began to wonder where she came from......
In the Lichun Courtyard, Lijuan had just sent someone to invite him, and Lu Qingrong rushed over without delay.
"But what's wrong with your body?" Lu Qingrong entered the door. Just care.
Lijuan hurriedly shook his head. Then let the maids in the house stand down.
Green Bamboo was the last to come out, turned around and closed the door, and stood at the door.
Only then did Lijuan speak: "The Queen Mother just quietly sent someone to send a message and told me to do something. ”
Lu Qingrong was about to sit down, and when he heard this, his movements froze.
Lijuan continued: "Let me find a way to get close to the county lord of Kangning, or buy the maid next to her, and put this in the dress of her Duanyang banquet into the palace." ”
Let's talk. Lijuan took out a purse from his sleeve and handed it to Lu Qingrong.
Lu Qingrong took it. I saw that the purse is slightly smaller than the palm, the texture is light and thin, the bottom of the red fine silk, the surrounding is embellished with patterns embroidered with colorful gold threads, and the most prominent thing is the pair of mandarin ducks in the middle, amphibious on the water, lifelike.
"What is this?" Lu Qingrong was puzzled.
Lijuan took the purse back, took out the contents himself, and handed it to Lu Qingrong.
It was a fan pendant, half a foot long, the size of a fingernail, with an apricot-yellow tassel hanging underneath. The style is quite simple.
But the color of this tassel made Lu Qingrong's heart tighten.
Lu Qingrong was no longer familiar with the taboo of Daqi, and he also knew that anyone in the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion could not use this color, including Qiu Jinting, the county lord, as for whether her mother, Princess Chengyang, could use it, it was not certain.
"You've seen this before?" Lu Qingrong asked cautiously.
Lijuan understood what she meant, and replied directly: "I haven't seen it on the emperor." But I'm not a royal servant, so I've lost some knowledge. ”
Lu Qingrong held the pendant in his hand and looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't see the reason.
This reminded her of several other events today.
Mrs. Wu went to Fengning Hall and East Palace in the morning.
Subsequently, Lu Manyu invited herself to the East Palace, and the Queen Mother arranged such a task for Lijuan......
All of this finally pointed to Qiu Jinting.
Obviously, they were calculating Qiu Jinting.
But what is it?
If the thing is the emperor's, what good will it do to them if it is placed on Qiu Jinting?
Lu Qingrong could vaguely see that Mrs. Wu was very cold to Qiu Jinting these days. But the Queen Mother is her own grandmother...... What kind of gains and losses can make the Queen Mother even calculate her granddaughter?
"Can I get this thing back to Yuyuan? I'll send it back to you tomorrow. Lu Qingrong asked.
Lijuan nodded: "Mrs. Shizi, please." It's still a few days before the Duanyang Feast, and I'm not sure if I'm going to do it. ”
Lu Qingrong didn't have a clue for the time being, and he didn't want to give her any advice, so he just put the pendant in his purse, carefully tucked it in his sleeve, and said goodbye and returned to Yuyuan.
Jiang Xuan went to the Marquis Mansion of Wuding, had a drink with Cui Yan and Jiang Ling, who were about to go to Mobei, and had a good conversation.
chatted happily, naturally drank a lot of wine, Jiang Xuan walked obviously a little floating, and his brain was not very clear.
Stepping into the Yu Courtyard, recalling the scene at the banquet, Jiang Xuan even laughed out loud.
He and Cui Yan, the prince of Wuding, have known each other since childhood, and have been the companions of the second prince, and have also fought together in Mobei, and their friendship has become deeper and deeper. Therefore, he is as steady and gentle as Cui Yan, and occasionally tells a few jokes.
For example, today, Jiang Xuan casually took out the handkerchief on his body to clean his hands, and Jiang Ling next to him was quite unimpressed, just because compared with others, Jiang Xuan shook off the handkerchief in front of him too many times, and he was already surprised.
However, Cui Yan was surprised when he saw the crooked female red, and after stretching his neck to observe carefully, he seemed to remember something, and asked: "I don't know this veil, but it was embroidered by the maid of the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion?" ”
The word "embroidered girl" was temporarily changed to a maid, just because Cui Yan felt that it was unlikely that there would be such a level of embroidery girl......
Without waiting for Jiang Xuan to answer, Cui Yan continued to ask, "I don't know if this person has read?" ”
After speaking, he also glanced at Jiang Ling with a mocking face.
Those who don't know are not surprised, Jiang Xuan knows that Cui Yan is just joking about Jiang Ling's criteria for choosing a wife.
Jiang Xuan smiled silently.
Jiang Ling shook his head helplessly.
No one answered him.
Cui Yan wondered, he didn't understand why Jiang Ling showed a rare look of frustration, and he couldn't figure out where Jiang Xuan's pride came from. (To be continued.) )
