Chapter 186: Picking
Because of the indiscriminate incursion of wolves. That night, His Majesty the Emperor set off for Beijing.
The accident of this spring hunt almost shuffled the cards of the noble courtiers in the city. How many sons and brothers who were originally going to inherit the title or family business died in the wolf's belly. Those who came back with a life were missing arms and legs, and their spirits were also greatly stimulated.
There are also a small number of extremely lucky people who also need to see a psychiatrist on different schedules.
Even the royal family is no exception, and the four princes lost a leg. The Five Princes were found under the cliffs.
The Nine Emperor Princes were carried back to the palace, and the people from the Imperial Physician's Office took turns to fight, and they slept for three days before waking up.
Luo Chen was assigned to investigate the matter and had not returned home for several days.
Chonghua looked at the catkins floating outside the window. Human life is so fragile that although it has been promoted to hunter. But he still couldn't dodge the beast's sharp teeth.
Someone used a whistle to control the wolves, and when he returned to Qinghui Garden, Chonghua talked to Luo Chen about it.
Luo Chen basically agrees with Chonghua's point of view, but what exactly is the intention of this person who uses a whistle to control the wolf pack is really worth pondering.
"Niangniang, the eldest lady of Tongjiang Wangfu is visiting." The blue kite reported with a gloomy face.
Chonghua was stunned, he didn't hand over the post and came to visit like this, Zhou Yayun didn't look like a person who would do such a thing.
"Is it really Miss Zhou? Didn't you mingle with the others? "Don't sell dog meat with a sheep's head, then she will jump into the Yellow River and can't wash it.
Qing Kite nodded: "It is indeed Miss Zhou." ”
Chonghua lowered his head and thought for a while: "Tell Canglan to stand by outside." Let's go to the living room. ”
There is a very delicate small courtyard in the northeast corner of the front yard, and Luo Chen deliberately renovated that place as a living room for Chonghua to receive closer visitors.
I didn't think it would be useful, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Zhou Yayun sat in the exquisite small flower hall, drinking tea with her head down. There is a melancholy between the eyebrows that is difficult to resolve.
Chonghua changed into a homely wide-sleeved long skirt and walked in with the green kite.
"Miss Zhou." Chonghua smiled and nodded.
Zhou Yayun was stunned for a moment, and also smiled faintly: "Hello cousin-in-law." ”
Chonghua admired in his heart, he was indeed a smart child. Know how to be flexible. was very affectionate with her before, and it was inevitable that her brother was in it. Now the well-behaved cousin-in-law is called a cousin-in-law, and she is a discerning person.
"It's your first time here, forgive me for the inconsiderate hospitality." Chonghua didn't remember how the ladies of ancient times met guests. Fortunately, Zhou Yayun is also a deviant, and she should not find fault with her poor manners.
Sure enough, Zhou Yayun shook her head with a smile: "No, cousin-in-law doesn't have to be polite." ”
A long silence followed. Chonghua didn't ask her, just asked Zimo to prepare refreshments. Let the little girl slowly think about when to speak.
After a long time, Chonghua had already begun to prepare to keep her for dinner. Zhou Yayun raised her head abruptly and looked at Chonghua with tears in her eyes.
"Cousin-in-law, can you go see my brother?"
Chonghua was silent, how could this scene be familiar. It seems that not long ago, someone with this expression also discussed this matter with her.
"Miss Zhou, my uncle and sister-in-law can't be kissed. I'm going to avoid suspicion too. Chonghua explained with a faint smile.
Zhou Yayun's pearly tears crackled down her delicate little face: "I understand, I understand." But my brother is sick, and he is very sick. I just thought that if my cousin-in-law went to see him, maybe it would get better. ”
Chonghua sighed: "If you are sick, you have to see an imperial doctor, and I am not a doctor......
"But my brother has been thinking about his cousin." Zhou Yayun wiped the tears on her face.
Chonghua's eyes darkened: "If Miss Zhou comes to trap me for being unkind." Then don't blame me for sending off guests. ”
said in her house that other men were thinking about her, if a suspicious husband heard this, would she still have good fruit to eat? Fortunately, Luo Chen was not at home, otherwise Zhou Wenyuan would not have survived today.
Zhou Yayun was taken aback, and hurriedly waved her hand and shook her head: "No." I didn't mean that. It's just, it's just...... My brother ......"
Chonghua also knew that she was just a child who hadn't graduated from junior high school. No matter how smart he is, he was raised in the boudoir. No social experience.
"Yayun, you have to realize that I didn't go to your house voluntarily in the first place. And I've never had any affection with your brother. If there is affection, your brother will not give me to the third prince. Won't take a wife. You don't have a sweetheart right now and may not understand. When you have a sweetheart, you will know that when you like someone, you can't tolerate other people. ”
Strictly speaking, Chonghua has no sweetheart, but isn't it written like this in the book, and you can still fool an underage girl in the past.
"Your brother didn't keep me in the mansion because he had affection for me in the first place." is surrounded by his own people, Chonghua did not shy away from it, and patiently explained to her: "I am a weak woman, and your brother is forcing my life-saving benefactor to die." You say that even if I resist, I will die one more person. And your brother has also sent a maid to guard me, and I will not be allowed to seek death. You've been in contact with me for a while, what do you think I like about your brother? ”
Some words can't be said clearly at this time, and Zhou Yayun will be used as a gun in the future. It's better to pick them all out, and also cut off the idea of pulling the informant behind.
"Your brother gave me to the third prince, and I was pushed down the mountain by Concubine Xian. If I hadn't met His Second Highness, I was afraid that I would have died in the wilderness. It was His Royal Highness that sent me to Jiangnan, thinking that I would live a life of not asking about the world. But your brother killed the Ning family. Five or six-year-olds didn't let go. Do you think he has affection for me? ”
Zhou Yayun was choked by Chonghua and was speechless. She only saw her brother's eyebrows that she refused to stretch every day, but she never thought that Zhou Wenyuan used the most undesirable way for women.
Don't blame Chonghua, if a man treats her like this, she won't be welcome.
Not all domineering presidents will be able to catch up with Cinderella. It's only because the domineering president is the male protagonist that he is given all kinds of opportunities. Otherwise, any woman with a normal brain will hide away because she is afraid. Where will there be feelings.
"His Second Highness's temper is not good, but he is very clean, and he never hides anything from me. And they never forced me. That's why I'm going to marry him. Chonghua put the matter between her and Luo Chen directly on the most ordinary free love coat. You can't sue the little girl, the two of us teamed up to kill your brother, right? How to say it in front of people.
"I know you have doubts in your heart, and I will see you today. Naturally, you are thinking about your brother, how can you see the suffering of others. Chonghua turned his face away lightly, covering half of his face with a handkerchief, as if tears were rolling in his eyes.
Zhou Yayun suddenly felt that her face was on fire. She only thought that Chonghua had borne her brother, but she didn't expect there to be such twists and turns in it.
"It's mine, it's not ......" Zhou Yayun saluted: "It's not too early, it's time for me to leave." ”
Chonghua nodded: "Qing Kite, send Miss Zhou out." ”
Her rank can allow her to drop off customers without going out. Being able to receive Zhou Yayun without a post is already a face-saving experience for the Tongjiang Palace.
The green kite sent Zhou Yayun out.
Zi Mo twisted his eyebrows slightly: "Niangniang, Miss Zhou, what does this mean?" ”
Chonghua yawned, and Fang couldn't help but feel sleepy. It may be that spring is coming, and it is easy to get sleepy after noon. Fang Cai couldn't help but yawn before covering his face with a handkerchief. Wiping the tears that squeezed out of the corners of his eyes.
"I don't know what she means. I'm not going to know, either. No matter which angle you think about it, you also know that it shouldn't be mixed with her.
Sometimes there are many things involved.
There are often such scenes in novels, TV series, and comics. The female protagonist is too much of the Virgin White Lotus, and she shows unnecessary kindness to men other than the male protagonist at every turn.
Some people will say that this is to show the kindness and gentleness of the heroine.
But who has considered that if the male protagonist shows unnecessary kindness to other women, will the female protagonist grit her teeth with jealousy?
Comparing your heart to your heart, you can't care about other men because this man is in love with you and is dead set on you. Men are creatures that can't stand loneliness.
Zhou Yayun's visit was reported to Luo Chen that night.
Regarding Chonghua's attitude, Luo Chen was a little surprised. Women shouldn't be kept secret, right? Aren't you afraid that he will be angry?
"Angry? Why get angry? You didn't like me to marry me, did you? Strictly speaking, the two of us are allies. Zhou Yayun is Zhou Wenyuan's sister, the sister of our common enemy. When she comes, I'm naturally going to sue you. Chonghua said to Luo Chen's doubts.
Luo Chen had just changed out of his coat and was wearing a wide-sleeved robe with a cross-collared collar, and was sitting in front of the dresser with his hair scattered, about to straighten his hair with a comb. Hearing Chonghua say this in such a businesslike tone, he turned around with a cold face.
"What do you mean by that?"
Chonghua leaned on the beauty couch, waiting for a long time to watch the beauty combing her hair, but she never thought that Luo Chen would suddenly ask her like this, and she was confused: "Do you think this matter should not be told to you?" ”
Luo Chen held a comb in his hand and tilted his head slightly, his eyes were full of coldness: "What do you mean, I didn't like you to marry you?" ”
Chonghua didn't expect him to question this matter, and was stunned: "Isn't it?" ”
Side concubine. Think about it, the so-called side concubines are more advanced concubines. Isn't that the same as marrying anyone? If Luo Chen has a heart for her, he can take her in with the etiquette of a concubine. But if he didn't do so, doesn't that mean that they are just allies?
At least for now. Chonghua subconsciously avoided thinking about it.
From that dream, I saw Luo Chen drink poison~ wine in one gulp, staggered to her sleeping body, held her hand tightly and closed her eyes, Chonghua felt as if a piece of his heart was missing.
But right now, Luo Chen is not the man who held her hand tightly before he died.
So, she shouldn't expect too much. R1152
