Chapter 133: Princess Hening's Calculations
Ah Yuan hurriedly arrived at the door of Pinglan Garden, stopped to catch his breath, went in what to say in his head, and strode into the courtyard gate with his clothes in his head.
"Red Girl." Ah Yuan saw Hongrui, who was drying the quilt in the yard, stepped forward to say hello.
"How do you have the kung fu?" Hongrui set up the quilt, dusted off the invisible dust on it, and asked casually, what will happen if there is nothing to do in the heart and go to the Three Treasures Palace.
"The Winged King is here." Ah Yuan didn't reply to Hongrui and asked the Wing King if he was there.
"The master is reading." Hongrui replied truthfully: "Is there something wrong?" "The master has always been disliked by people when he reads, and he has never opened his mouth to report for Ah Yuan.
Ah Yuan is so clever, as soon as he hears Hongrui's words, he knows what he means, he can't see the Wing King here, and it's okay if he can't see it, just like Hongrui said, he doesn't want to see the Wing King, it's too cold and too difficult to approach, and he can't help but shiver.
"The lord sent me to ask about the banquet for the relocation of the Wing King." Ah Yuan concisely explained the meaning.
"Relocation banquet?" Hongrui raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Xiangye is busy with official business, and he can take time to care about one or two, and the master is happy to hear it." "It's weird.
Ah Yuan heard how false and false this sentence was, goosebumps popped up, to say that the father-daughter relationship between Xiangye and the Wing King is really not much, as a confidant, he can see too much and can't see it clearly, the Wing King can be happy that Xiangye asks about his own affairs, the sun can hit the west and come out, Hongrui's words can be listened to or not, and the truth tells us that the truth cannot be seen with the naked eye.
"What does the Winged King mean?" Ah Yuan did not forget to come to this mission, and without a definite answer, he didn't dare to go back and report like this.
"The master has always been low-key, and the relocation banquet is probably out of play." Hongrui looked disappointed, "There is nowhere to taste the delicacies of the mountains and seas now." "It's a pity, how many people give gifts under the guise of failure.
Ah Yuan was very surprised, such a big thing as moving the mansion was said to be done if it was not done, this, this, he couldn't say it.
Hongrui saw Ah Yuan's surprise in his eyes. What is there to be surprised when he pouted his lips, the master has his own master's truth, and he listens to it.
"Won't you offend people if you don't have a banquet?" Ah Yuan reminded carefully, for fear that his words would be misinterpreted.
"Who can you offend?" Hongrui's face was puzzled. sneered in his heart, a banquet is the only way to really offend people, one by one is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp.
"That's it?" Ah Yuan couldn't guess what the Wing King was thinking, he didn't pay attention to his own affairs, so Xiang Ye didn't worry about it in vain.
"What do you say?" Hongrui smiled: "Where is it silent, I have prepared firecrackers." "It's indispensable to fire a cannon for good luck.
The cannon is used for fart, and the highlight can be at the banquet later, Ah Yuantou was powerless to ask the sky, how much worry does such a master have to worry about.
"Xiangye means that the Wing King is understaffed. Xiangye can help a little. Ah Yuan nodded at the right time, it really can't be done without a banquet.
Hongrui heard the meaning of Ah Yuan's words clearly, and chuckled, "I can't be the master of this." "To be a subordinate must be to be a subordinate and question the master's decision. It's hard to forget how to write dead words.
Ah Yuan choked, and said strangely that some people say that what kind of master has what kind of minion, which is so slippery that it is deeply hateful.
Ah Yuan, who knew that he couldn't ask anything, said two words of gossip and left Pinglan Yuan, none of the previously typed drafts were useless, and the attitude of the Wing King was clear and could not be changed, what kind of expression would it be when he went back to return to Xiangye, it was not worth looking forward to.
Out of Pinglan Garden, go to the next place where Princess Hening lived. Ah Yuan walked and pondered, the Wing King didn't hold a banquet, did he still need to give gifts?
Ah Yuan, who doesn't send it or not, really doesn't care, he completes the task assigned by the prime minister first, just ask.
Hongrui packed up her things and went back to the house, and learned what Ah Yuan said word for word.
"The Prime Minister is a man who wants to save face. Knowing that Ah Yuan returned, he might come to the door again. Hongrui laughed so badly that way.
"He's too lenient." The problem of face is never taken seriously, and face cannot be eaten as food, so what is the use of it.
"The Prime Minister is afraid of people's words." In fact, Hongrui herself is afraid that others will talk about the master's behind her back, and the master's face is calm and unwavering. She also put down her upset and irritability.
"As the saying goes, three people become tigers, and everyone makes money." Hongrui counted with his fingers, "A person can drown a person with a mouthful of spit, these are wise sayings, no wonder the prime minister is anxious." ”
"With status and power, no matter how they speak, it is very difficult to move." One sentence breaks through the theft, the supremacy of power only plays a role for the weak, and for the superior, it is just a joke, but the protagonist is himself, it's not a big deal, it doesn't hurt his muscles and bones.
"The master's mind is the most difficult to guess, and the prime minister always touches the master's thunder and returns." Hongrui teased, "The Prime Minister doesn't know how many times I've lost money, and I still don't have a long memory." ”
"What is the crime of being a courtier?" Speak with a straight face.
Hongrui was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "The master will be happy to find someone, how can there be such a crime in the law." "It's scared to death, okay.
"You're the one who talks the most." The red stamen is lively, the red is bright and calm, and sometimes the red stamen is used to find happiness and relieve the fatigue of reading, which is purely a bad taste.
"When will the master go to the valley again?" "The climate in the mountains is good, and in autumn there are many red leaves on the mountain, and there are things in the mountains, although there are not many delicious but you can taste fresh." ”
"Autumn." Counting the days, I can see some results when I go around that time.
"Great." Hongrui was very happy, what could compare to the freedom and wantonness outside, just thinking about it and intoxicating it couldn't extricate herself.
"Princess, the prime minister sent someone to ask, can you prepare a congratulatory gift for King Yi's relocation?" Mama entered the house from the courtyard and showed that Ah Yuan came to the intention.
"Congratulations on moving the house?" Princess Hening raised her eyebrows and sneered: "Why should this palace send congratulatory gifts." "What kind of family is the Wing King, and he needs someone to prepare a generous gift when he moves to a mansion.
"Princess, this is the rule." Mama was afraid that Princess Hening would be angry and refused to prepare a gift, so she elaborated on the number of courtesies that should be fulfilled for moving to the mansion.
"What a rule!" Princess Hening was very disdainful, "This palace is not in harmony with the Wing King, and giving gifts is not a slap in the face." "Besides, she didn't plan to have the face of the Winged King, and it was good enough not to make trouble.
"Princess, Xiangye specially asked about this matter, you can expect how much attention is paid to it." Mama continued to persuade, "After all, King Yi is the only daughter of Xiangye, no matter how bad the rumors are, how can there be an overnight feud between father and daughter who are connected by blood." Xiangye is now the only daughter, and he will definitely give the best to the Wing King, and the princess, as a daughter-in-law, is an elder for the Wing King in terms of generation. As an elder, it is appropriate to prepare a congratulatory gift for the relocation of the government. ”
"The Wing King has never taken the palace as an elder." Princess Hening's face was gloomy, and she was depressed, "The children of this palace are gone, and the Wing King is the one who indirectly guides him." "How could she forget what had made her miserable.
"Princess." Mama sighed, "The incident was planned by Zuo Zhen at the beginning, and Mama's death may not have been instructed by the Wing King, and the inside story has never been revealed." ”
Princess Hening's decision, no matter what you say, you can't pull it back, the depression blocked in her heart needs an outlet to vent, and she desperately needs an enemy even if it is imaginary. After Zuo Zhen went crazy, the object of venting disappeared, and the appearance of the Wing King just filled the vacancy, how can you say forgiveness and forgiveness.
Princess Hening's heart is like a mirror, she knows what she is doing, even if she is hateful, she will be hateful. Otherwise, she really doesn't know if she will be at a loss if she loses the motivation to revenge, and she will be born of burnout and lose hope for the future, which will be more painful than losing a child.
"There is no way to verify the inside story." Princess Hening's faint voice revealed a slight coldness.
"Princess, Xiangye asked how to get back?" Mama didn't understand why Princess Hening was so strong as to King Yi, if this matter was not handled well, it would cause trouble, and she was so anxious that she sweated down.
"Let's wait for the horses to come back and discuss." Princess Hening said so, in fact, she didn't take it seriously in her heart at all. What about the Wing King, it's just a king with a different surname, what's the big deal, when the Wing King returned home, didn't he go to see him.
"Princess, the subordinate sent by the prime minister is still waiting outside." Hurry up and give me an accurate word. Mama was so anxious that her hands kept shaking.
"According to the words of the main palace, I replied." Princess Hening was obviously impatient, and her hand unconsciously held the lid on the teacup and fiddled, making a light crisp sound, which was not a drop of water in the teacup.
"Princess." Mama still wanted to persuade her, but when she saw Princess Hening's expression, she couldn't spit it out when she said it. Secretly sighing that the princess has a bad temper, the more difficult it will be to be a subordinate.
Princess Hening, who was thinking far away, didn't notice Mama's expression, even if she saw it, she didn't take it seriously, as the master, she didn't have to worry about her subordinates.
Mama had no choice but to turn around and was about to go out and go back to Ah Yuan, who was waiting outside the door, dragging it would arouse Ah Yuan's suspicions.
"Wait." At the moment when Mama was about to cross the threshold, Princess Hening suddenly opened her mouth to stop Mama who was leaving.
"What does the princess command?" Mama heard the summons and stopped, turned back.
"Go and tell the people outside, the congratulatory gift is ready." Princess Hening commanded this, and at that moment, a thought crossed her mind, prompting her to change her mind.
"This ......" obviously didn't prepare why he suddenly lied, Mama opened her mouth and didn't dare to ask, and waited for a while before replying with a good word.
Mama was surprised by Princess Hening's fickleness, and adjusted the expression on her face before walking out of the door to make sure that no one would see it and make associations.
Ah Yuan waited outside for a cup of tea before he saw the grandmother beside Princess Hening, and there was no dissatisfaction on his face.
"The princess has prepared a congratulatory gift, I don't know what the Wing King likes, she is picking out one, and she has delayed the hour." Mama explained with a smile.
"If it's so small, go back to your life." Ah Yuan said one thing on his lips, and thought about another set in his heart, so long before he came out to reply, saying that he had prepared a congratulatory gift, that is, he had prepared a congratulatory gift, that is, he had prepared a congratulatory gift, and it was strange that the congratulatory gift could be sent out.
"Princess, congratulatory gift?" Mama looked uncertainly at Princess Hening who was sitting on the chair.
"Bring the best wooden box." Princess Hening opened her mouth and ordered, "I want the kind that can be locked." ”
Mama went into the back room to rummage through the things that Princess Hening wanted, and after a while, three wooden boxes of different sizes were placed on the table.
Princess Hening picked a square gold-painted wooden box with rich peonies painted on it, the size of which can hold an inkstone.
"Bring a lock and a key." Princess Hening opened the box and stared at the inside of the box.
Mama didn't know what Gong Ning was going to do, so she obediently brought a small silver lock and key.
Princess Hening took the lock and closed the box, put on the lock and tried the size to be just right, clicked the lock cylinder, and said to Mama: "The things in this box are the congratulatory gifts of the Wing King's relocation to the mansion." ”
Mama was suddenly shocked, there was obviously nothing in the box, and Princess Hening didn't put any objects into the box, what she saw with her own eyes would be dazzled! What's wrong with Princess Hening, it is said that the things in this box are a congratulatory gift for moving to the palace, is it not burned, or is it hysteria?
Mama panicked in her heart, and carefully observed Princess Hening's expression, which one was sung, not like she was stunned, so which one was singing.
"No matter what you just saw, this palace said that the contents of this box are a congratulatory gift for moving to the palace, that is." Princess Hening warned Mama in a deep voice what to say, what to say, what not to say, and to know in her heart.
"The slave understands." Mama was taken aback by Princess Hening's gloomy face, and trembled in response to Princess Hening's words.
"Princess, in case you find out that the ......" box is empty, Mama doesn't dare to think about whether the Wing King will be angry, Princess Hening is teasing the Wing King, once something goes wrong.
"If you don't say it, who knows what's in the box." Princess Hening's eyes were cold, and she stared at her sweating grandmother with a smile.
Mama was stared at and broke out in a cold sweat, Princess Hening has considered the consequences of doing this, in case the Wing King is investigated, Princess Hening may be fine, and the unlucky one will be the one who is the next person, and I shuddered involuntarily when I thought of this.
In order not to be affected by Princess Hening, Mama opened her mouth hard, of course, it was impossible to persuade Princess Hening to let go of this ridiculous idea, Princess Hening's appearance is too infiltrating, this persuasion is tantamount to asking for trouble, she is not so stupid.
"Princess, the weight of an empty box is not the same as that of an object." How many pieces are put in one or two, no matter how worthless it is, it is better than one that is not, and the mother trembled in her heart, for fear that Princess Hening would be displeased.
Princess Hening was not angry, and after listening to Mama's words, she felt that it made sense, so she opened the box and thought about what to put in it, and her thoughts drifted away.
Princess Hening's original intention was to make the Winged King embarrassed by the empty congratulatory gift box. Here's what she thought. The locked box is to prove the preciousness of the things inside, and the second is to prove the uniqueness of the things, no one will be ghosted halfway and steal the contents of the box, so that the key must be sent to the Wing King in advance, and wait until the day of the relocation banquet to offer a congratulatory gift on the spot, see the locked box, the first thought of the guests at the banquet will be self-evident.
The banquet was lively, and some people would mention opening the box on the spot to see what was inside, and the Wing King would never open his mouth to refuse at that time, and when he opened the box on the spot and found that there was nothing inside, the scene and Princess Ning were happy to just think of it.
The Wing King lost his face in front of the guests, this is the main effect of He Ning Gong, as for the pursuit of the problem, the box was given by himself, yes, the key was given to the Wing King earlier, the things in the box were gone, and he couldn't blame himself at all, it was difficult to suspect that the gift-giver had stolen something, who believed it! No one will believe that this is a teasing, a joke. Because he wanted to exclaim at the right time, he was stunned, saying that the things in the box were very valuable, and they were jade pendants given by the emperor, so the scene would be even more chaotic, and the Wing King would lose the things given by the emperor, even if it was a congratulatory gift from Princess Hening herself to show respect, he would have to bear some responsibility. As for whether to find it or not, it is not within the scope of his own consideration, even if Yiwang really has the ability to find out something, even if he suspects himself, it is also a dumb person who can't say if he eats Coptis chinensis.
Before everyone believed that the thing was intentional by Princess Hening, even if the Wing King found out that the result was to protect the royal family's face, he would not openly find out the truth without scruples, and this bitter fruit was destined to be swallowed by the Wing King himself.
The Wing King lost face, and Princess Hening got what she wanted to take revenge on the Wing King, and the knot in her heart may be untied, and everything feels fresh after the anger is gone, of course, the premise is that Princess Hening's plan can be as smooth as she thinks.
