"I didn't let you make a mess, why did you say it so strictly? It's just that I want you to help my brother find out some news, and if I can't find out, I won't eat you, really! What an elm head. ”

As soon as the words of this sentence fell, I suddenly heard someone say, "Who's behind?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Zhen hurriedly turned around and ran back, but after running a few steps, he was blocked by a flying figure.

She fixed her eyes and saw that it was none other than Rong Ming, the fiery county lord of Yanwangfu, who was chatting with Liu Ke in the living room just now.

"You overheard us talking and said, 'What did you hear?' Rong Ming said as she pulled out a cowhide whip from her waist and flicked it in the air.

Liu Zhen screamed in fright, hurriedly hid behind, and hit another person with her body, but when she looked back, it was Liu Feng, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, she hugged Liu Feng's sleeve and begged: "Brother save me!" ”

Liu Feng glanced at her and asked, "Why don't you entertain guests in the living room, why are you here?" ”

Liu Zhen asked, and Cechenono whispered back: "Someone in the living room is looking for the eldest sister, but just now the eldest sister came to the backyard with the county lord, so I came to this side, and just now I saw the figure that seemed to be the county lord from a distance, so I thought that the eldest sister must be talking to the county lord here, but I didn't expect that——"

After she said this, she stopped talking with interest and didn't say any more, but still held Liu Feng's sleeve and didn't let go, for fear that the whip in Rong Ming's hand would fall without knowing when.

"Go ahead, Ake has returned to the parlor. Don't tell anyone what you just heard, or I won't be able to protect you. Liu Feng patted the back of Liu Zhen's hand and said.

As soon as Liu Zhen heard Liu Feng say to let her go, she quickly let go of her hand and walked forward quickly.

didn't take a few steps, only heard the sound of "pop-", a cold wind swept behind her head, Rong Ming waved the whip in her hand and said to her: "If there is a word that I said to Liu Feng just now, no matter who said it, I will settle accounts with you, and I have nothing to do with you." Don't blame me for being ruthless! If you don't know the way the lord of the county behaves. You can go and ask. ”

Liu Zhen hurriedly turned around and saluted: "Don't worry, county lord, Liu Zhen didn't hear anything just now, and she didn't see anything." ”

Rong Ming proudly put the whip back and said, "You know each other better." ! ”

Liu Zhen was threatened by Rong Ming. Dare to be angry but dare not speak. Bow your head and leave.

Today she was first ridiculed by Liu Wan in the living room, and then she was scared by Rong Ming here, and what is even more hateful. Liu Feng actually watched Rong Ming humiliate her without saying a word.

At this time, her heart was full of hatred, and she couldn't just leave it at that.

Originally, she wanted to go to the kitchen to make trouble and disgust them, but now she changed her mind.

Liu Zhen thought as she walked towards her yard.

She took out a small paper bag from the crack under her bed, which she had prepared for Aunt Jiang some time ago, but the woman was too careful, she never used it, and today she just added some ingredients to Liu Ke's ceremony.

She held the things in her hand and was just about to go out, when her little girl, Meiyun, who was waiting, walked in and said, "Third Miss, you are back, have you eaten in front, if not, Meiyun will make some for you." ”

After hearing this, Liu Zhen said, "No need, I'll just come back to change my clothes, and I'll go to the front to entertain the guests later, just stay in the courtyard." ”

Meiyun just came to Liu Zhen's side not long ago, but she is very self-motivated and doesn't want to be in the position of a second-class girl all the time, so she goes to Liu Zhen's side to be courteous at every opportunity.

As soon as he heard that Liu Zhen was going to change clothes, he was busy looking for clothes for Liu Zhen.

Liu Zhen looked at Meiyun's back, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but go up.

After Meiyun found out the clothes, Liu Zhen couldn't help but say: "I saw that there were a lot of people serving around me, but when I really needed someone, you were the only one, where did they go?" ”

After Meiyun heard this, she couldn't help but snickered in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Because the third lady is in front of the guests, they only think that the third lady will not come back for a while and a half, so they all go to eat and rest, and some people go to the front to see the excitement, but they don't want to, in case the young lady comes back with something, or looks for something, or changes clothes like this, how can no one stay here, so the slave maid didn't go, I don't want the third lady to come back to change clothes, fortunately the slave didn't go out with them." ”

After listening to Meiyun's words, Liu Zhen smiled and said, "You are very good, I originally wanted to go to the front by myself, or you can go to the living room with me, it can be regarded as seeing the world." ”

After Meiyun heard this, she was immediately overjoyed, "Third Miss, is this true?" You're going to take me to the parlour? ”

"Am I still laughing with you?" Liu Zhen chuckled lightly on her face, and walked out as she spoke.

Meiyun hurriedly followed, feeling that she was lucky today, and finally waited for the opportunity.

When Liu Zhen returned to the living room again, Liu Ke and Rong Ming were already sitting in their seats.

Shi Shi looked up and saw Liu Zhen change her clothes and walked in, and said, "Why did you change your clothes for so long, why don't you come and dine with a few young ladies." ”

Liu Zhen bowed and replied respectfully: "Yes!" ”

She saw that the seat of Liu Wan's hand was empty, so she walked over.

During the banquet, Liu Zhen poured wine and cloth dishes, showing that she was decent but not humble, but she saved a lot of reputation for herself.

Liu Ke and Rong Ming sat at a table, and Liu Zhen didn't forget to get up and go to fill Rong Ming with wine and vegetables.

Rong Ming was used to being held by the stars, so much so that she didn't notice anything, but Liu Ke couldn't help but look at Liu Zhen.

Liu Zhen was nervous by Liu Ke's eyes, and wanted to turn around and pour wine for Liu Ke again, but the hand holding the wine jug happened to collide with the girl who served the food.

Not only did the wine jug in his hand fall to the ground, but he also knocked off the wine glass and saucer in front of Rong Ming.

It was the girl behind her, holding the tray in her hand steadily, withdrawing her arm slightly, and the dish she was holding only spilled a little, and it was not overturned.

Seeing this, Shi scolded him: "Why are you so careless. Don't hurry up and reload a pair of dishes, chopsticks, and wine glasses for the county lord. ”

Liu Zhen only claimed yes, personally set up the dishes, chopsticks, plates and other things for Rong Ming, poured her a glass of wine, and then returned to her seat.

Liu Ke felt that Liu Zhen's behavior was a little weird, and she always felt that Liu Zhen was too flustered just now, but she was just pouring wine for Rong Ming, what was she afraid of?

Liu Ke couldn't help but wonder a little when she thought of this, her eyes fell on the new wine glass in front of Rong Ming, and while Rong Ming was picking up the dishes, she swapped her wine glass with Rong Ming's wine glass.

But he didn't expect to be discovered by Rong Ming. Rong Ming took his wine glass back and whispered, "What do you want to do?" I've practiced it, don't try to be sloppy in front of me. ”

Liu Ke was stunned for a moment, and then said: "You have drunk a lot today, how can you be greedy for a cup if you are a woman." ”

Rong Ming looked at Liu Ke's wine glass. Sure enough, there are a lot less than my own. There was no doubt. Laughing: "This little wine is nothing to me. After saying that, he drank it all.

Liu Ke's heart tightened, but fortunately, Rong Ming didn't show anything abnormal after drinking it for a while.

The girl came to pour the wine again, and Liu Ke stopped stopping Rong Ming.

Besides, Rong Ming is a guest. How could she be lazy when she came for her courtesy.

Until the banquet was received, nothing seemed to have happened.

Rong Ming really seemed to be drunk, and she walked a little crookedly, because she came on horseback, and Shi specially arranged a carriage.

Liu Ke personally put Rong Ming in the carriage before turning his head back, and when he turned his head, he saw Liu Zhen looking at them with a smug face.

Seeing Liu Ke looking at her, Liu Zhen hurriedly restrained the expression on her face and said, "Eldest sister, the guests have all left, I'll go back and rest first." After speaking, he took Meiyun's hand and walked straight towards his yard.

Liu Ke glanced at Liu Zhen thoughtfully, and suddenly felt a little worried about the departing Rong Ming.

"Sister, look at her appearance, now that she is not married to the surname Qi, she doesn't know what her surname is." Liu Wan looked at Liu Zhen's back indignantly and said.

Liu Ke had something in his heart, and after listening to Liu Yun's words, he really nodded and said, "I'm tired today, you can go and rest too." ”

Seeing that Liu Ke's face was a little tired, Liu Wan nodded and said, "Sister, let's go too." ”

Liu Ke was walking when he heard Shi's voice behind him: "Ke'er, you come with me." ”

Liu Ke didn't know why, so he answered and followed Shi to the main room.

But after arriving at the main room, Liu Ke stood in the middle hall for a long time, but Shi just looked at her and didn't say a word.

After a while, I heard Shi Shi say in a non-yin and non-yang voice: "I didn't post some of the guests who came today, I thought that although you and Lu are a big deal, there is no need to alarm too many people, so I only notified some relatives and friends, but I didn't expect so many people to come, your ability is not small, who notified them?" Is it that after meeting a few people in the capital, I feel that I have some face, and I don't have to worry about you as an uncle and grandmother. ”

After Liu Ke listened to Shi's words, he obediently knelt on the ground and replied: "Uncle and grandmother probably misunderstood, Liu Ke didn't post to anyone, let alone tell anyone about what he wanted to do with the guests who came today, Liu Ke is just a first-order woman, and she has only been in the capital for more than a month, how can she have such a big face." ”

After she said this, she paused and said: "I heard that the old princess of Chu has lived in a simple house for many years, and even the people in the royal family may not be invited to go, Liu Ke's face from there, and Liu Ke's identity does not allow Liu Ke to do this." ”

She deliberately clicked on the old princess of Chu, although she didn't know what was going on today, but listening to Rong Ming's words, it seemed that the guests who came today came only after looking at the face of the old princess Chu.

After hearing this, Shi Shi was silent for a long time and said, "What you said is reasonable, go and rest!" ”

Liu Ke got up and walked out of Shi's main room.

After returning to Qinlan Courtyard, she felt physically and mentally exhausted, took off her coat, leaned on the bed, and said to Yuye and Liu Qing who were waiting beside her: "You guys also go and rest, I don't call you, you don't have to come and serve." ”

Yuye and Liu Qing went down in response.

Liu Ke lay crooked on the bed, and after a while, he fell into a deep sleep.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already dark outside.

Just when she wondered why there was silence around her, she suddenly saw a person appear in her doorway. (To be continued......)
