Chapter 107 Rumo, Where Are You Going with Him?
Qing Li knew that she would come, but when she came in from behind the curtain, she stood in front of him and said softly, "Childe, we meet again!" He was stunned for a moment, and after a moment, realizing that he had lost his mind, he paused slightly, and smiled back at her: "Yes, we meet again!" Miss Liu! ”
He didn't tell her his own name and surname that night, and his name he only knew from Qingyuan's name to her that her name was "Rumo", as for what her surname was, whose daughter was it, he didn't know anything, and when they met again, she was Miss Liu, the daughter of the national teacher, he was the sixth prince of the dynasty, and the place of meeting changed from the dilapidated Yuelao Temple to Lanyuezhai's room.
"Is Yuebai okay? Did you run around again? Qingli cleaned up the paper and ink on the table, walked over to invite her to sit down, and poured her a cup of tea with his own hands.
Liu Rumo took it with both hands, nodded politely at him, and then held the teacup firmly in the palm of his hand and answered his question: "Yuebai has a happy temperament, it would be strange if he didn't run around one day, but fortunately, it was just running in the house!" ”
Speaking of the little fox, Qingli really had some thoughts, remembering that when he hurriedly put it in the placket on his chest, it rolled comfortably, and from time to time he poked out his little head to take a look at him, and he still felt funny when he thought about it.
"When Rumo saw Gongzi today, he realized what 'God has its own arrangement' means!" Liu Rumo took out the national teacher's order and put it on the table, Qingli lowered his eyes and glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze, his expression was as indifferent and gentle as ever, "What does Miss mean?" ”
"When I was in the Yuelao Temple, you, the third prince, I met but didn't know each other's identities, but now it's a different day. You and the Third Prince are brothers, and I, as the new national teacher, have come here to discuss things with you. Isn't it a providence? ”
The problem of the people in the low alley in the south of the city was that if she casually answered it in front of the Qingdi, she had already made arrangements. Now that Emperor Qingdi asked her to come to Qingli for this matter, naturally it will not be just for this matter, and she does not plan to magnify this matter and put it on the table for a long talk, fortunately, there are still some old things to talk about between her and Qingli, and it is the right thing to explore the tone first.
It is not difficult to bring down Qinglin and create the opportunity that Emperor Qing wants, but when she was in the Imperial Garden today, she watched the open and secret battle between the queen mother and Concubine Rou. I can roughly guess a few points, when she mentioned things related to the six princes, Concubine Rou subconsciously wanted to defend him, although it was not so obvious, but she mentioned Qingli for this at the time, of course she would pay more attention to it, sure enough, Concubine Rou is likely to be the person who cooperated with Qingli, and the result is obvious, even if he himself is not valued by Emperor Qing. But Concubine Rou was favored by the Blue Emperor.
As for the queen, after knowing her identity, she was obviously much more eager, and I was afraid that she had the intention of wooing her at the moment. It's just that I couldn't get a call, and I was repeatedly robbed of opportunities by Concubine Rou.
Qingli replied humbly: "In this way, it is really God's arrangement, but what I am curious about is that God arranged for Miss Liu to come here today?" ”
His meaning was very direct, and he had said it almost before, and Qingli also understood in his heart that the woman in front of him was now a national teacher, not the one whose identity was unknown. Let him investigate the guessed woman, act and speak with humility. But I thought about it a little more.
"It's not a big deal!" Liu Rumo looked at him, "I heard that Gongzi you often live in Lanyuezhai." I don't know what to know about the people's livelihood in the south of the city? ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Qingli's eyes, and then he shook his head and said, "I haven't been back to the mansion since I returned to Beijing, and the low alley in the south of the city that Miss Liu said is the area near the prince's mansion, right?" ”
Liu Rumo nodded lightly: "A few days ago, Rumo went to that area with his father to inspect the people's conditions, and found some problems, many people are not enough food and clothing, it is difficult to eat and wear, and after careful inquiry, I learned that they are all working for the rich family to make a living, but the son should know that now that the autumn harvest has passed, the rich family is naturally safer with their own long-term work, and the short-term work was resigned. It's just that during the study period, their food and lodging still need to be solved by you. ”
Qingli supported his chin with one hand, raised his eyebrows and groaned for a moment, looked at her with raised eyebrows, and said: "This matter is not difficult, but Miss Liu doesn't know, there are not many people in the house, and there is little rice and grain, and I am afraid that the silver distributed by my father is not enough to supply so many people, I don't know if Miss Liu can do it?" ”
It was the first time that Liu Rumo heard the prince shouting poverty, and immediately his eyes couldn't help but widen slightly, thinking of the words that Qingyuan had been hanging on his lips all day, no matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like a case of silver Shao, Qingli said this, was he telling her that the Qing Emperor was unfair to him, and he deducted his case silver because he didn't like him?
Unable to allow her to think too much, Qingli then said: "If Miss Liu is embarrassed, then forget it, go to Shenghua to discuss it again, borrow it, you can't let Miss work hard and break the bank, that is really against the way of a gentleman!" ”
He deliberately used this matter to embarrass her, Liu Rumo made up his mind in his heart, the more he said that he didn't want to embarrass her, he figured out his own way, the more this matter came out, the more he came out to embarrass her, because the Qing Emperor sent her over to talk about this matter, naturally it was necessary to solve it, the craftsman she had already ordered to start teaching those people, and she couldn't stop and put it aside because the six princes shouted poverty halfway, right?
But she can see Emperor Qing's attitude towards him, he wants to borrow her mouth to go to Emperor Qingdi to ask for a reward, add silver, this is not possible in any case, Emperor Qing clearly told her that he would let Qingyuan be the prince in the future, she succeeded as the national teacher, and he helped his least favored son to ask for rewards, how could Emperor Qing rest assured that she would assist Qingyuan?
So she thought about it for a while, and then answered: "Since Gongzi has difficulties, Rumo must be responsible for this matter, it is better to do this, Gongzi only needs to arrange for those people to live, Rumo will order the National Teacher's Mansion to send the rice and grain needed to the prince's mansion for those people to need on weekdays, the emperor has a word, just wait for them to learn the skills, so if Rumo wants to come, it won't take too long, what does Gongzi think?" ”
Qingli wanted to borrow her to make a head in front of the Qingdi, but she would rather let the National Teacher's Mansion pay for the food, and never mentioned entering the palace to find the Qingdi to explain the situation, it seems that she is smarter than he imagined.
"That's naturally the best, my father knows how to leave, I think Miss Liu also knows it, since my father has given an order, then no matter how difficult it is, it should be solved privately, and when I get to my father, maybe I can't do it, and I will end up with a useless name in vain!"
Liu Rumo heard him say this, Quan Dang listened to the joke, smiled and passed, and suddenly the conversation changed, and talked about what he saw and heard in the imperial garden today: "Don't hide the son, Rumo entered the palace today to see the driver, when he was in the imperial garden, it happened that the emperor and the queen were in the same place, and when it came to this matter, the concubine Rou took good care of the son, and was much more enthusiastic than the queen mother!" ”
When it comes to "Concubine Rou", Qingli is even more impressed with her, it stands to reason that she should see Aunt Rou for the first time, or in the presence of both the Qingdi and the queen, Aunt Rou will definitely not show her concern for herself, and she should not even show her at all, so as not to be seen by the Qingdi The relationship between her and herself, Aunt Rou is naturally trustworthy, but at this time, Liu Rumo said that Aunt Rou was defending him in front of her, either she was speculating herself, or, what she said made Aunt Rou slightly flawed.
"Where did Miss Liu say, my father has lived in Concubine Rou's bedroom for a long time, and I have been called by my father to go to the palace, and I have had a few encounters with Concubine Rou, but it is not as good as Miss said, so good that Concubine Rou Niangniang is maintaining everything she can to do things, Miss is afraid that she will think too much!"
Liu Rumo pretended to be surprised: "Huh? It turned out that Rumo thought about it a lot, I'm really sorry, after seeing the two mothers in the imperial garden today, I saw that the queen's attitude towards the princess was tepid, and I really couldn't see a little bit of enthusiasm, in contrast, Xu felt that the concubine was better to the son, but Rumo thought more! ”
The apologetic words were really embarrassing for her for the sake of being so unapologetic, Qing said lightly, but waved her hand silently: "No need to apologize, Miss Liu is serious, but she is just casual and casually, it is too long to hear it, but the father is still more cautious, don't say it wrongly, so as not to cause trouble for Concubine Rou!" ”
"That's nature!" Liu Rumo opened his mouth to respond, took a sip of the teacup, slowed down, and said, "Is there anything else to do now?" ”
Qing looked at her in confusion and said, "Why did Miss Liu ask such a question?" ”
Liu Rumo stood up and shook his slightly wrinkled skirt, straightened his clothes, and invited him: "If Gongzi has nothing else to do now, Rumo wants to invite Gongzi to go to the low alleys in the south of the city, and first go to see the resettlement of those people. ”
Qingli then stood up and replied: "It just so happens that there is nothing to do at this time, since Miss Liu wants to go, then Lizi should be accompanied, Miss is here for a while, and I will send Nanshu to prepare the carriage and horses!" ”
As he spoke, he turned the curtain and went out, not realizing that as soon as he left, she was left alone in the room to be safe, but fortunately, she only planned to spy on him and not in his room, otherwise he would be too relieved of her.
Qingli walked fast, came back quickly, not long after, came back to lead her downstairs, Nanshu had already prepared the carriage and waited downstairs, of course, as soon as he heard that Qingli was going to take Liu Rumo out for a trip, Qingyuan could still sit still, he instructed Nanshu to prepare the carriage and horses, Qingyuan heard clearly, no, when Liu Rumo followed Qingli downstairs, Qingyuan stopped at the staircase first.
Qingyuan stretched out his hand to block the way of the two, and asked Liu Rumo in a low voice, "Rumo, where are you going with him?" (To be continued)
