274 Verification
Although under Huang Ying's persuasion, Qu Wurong stopped her cranky thoughts in time, but she didn't sleep very well this night, and the chaotic dreams deepened her worries and fears, so that the next morning, she rarely got up late.
This is the first time Huang Li doesn't know how many times she has stretched her neck to visit the dormitory, but it was always quiet inside, and there was not even a sound, which made her wonder: Qu Wurong usually wakes up very early, what's wrong today? Is it because you are not feeling well?
Just as she was looking into the dormitory, Huang Ying passed by her with a basin of water, and when she saw this, she asked, "Hasn't Madame gotten up yet?" ”
"yes!" Huang Li nodded and pointed in the direction of the dormitory, "There is no movement in there at all." ”
Huang Ying showed a knowing look on her face, "Then let her sleep a little longer, she slept quite late last night." Although she obeyed her suggestion, Qu Wurong still couldn't sleep after lying on the bed, and she finally listened to the movement on the bed and fell asleep unconsciously!
Hearing her say this, Huang Li no longer stayed outside the dormitory, and while following her outside, he asked, "Hey, did something happen last night?" ”
"What's going on?" Huang Ying asked rhetorically with a pretended puzzlement.
"How do I know?" Seeing her ask herself in turn, Huang Li couldn't help but look at her strangely, "Didn't you stay in the dormitory yesterday to accompany Madame?" Don't you know what's going on? ”
Huang Ying shook her head innocently, "I don't know." ”
Unable to ask the gossip from her mouth, Huang Li pursed his lips dissatisfiedly, but he didn't hold on to the question anymore, and went to work on his own.
When Qu Wurong woke up, it was almost the end of the hour, she hugged the quilt and got up from the bed, the memory of last night instantly returned to her mind, and she couldn't help but hold her forehead and moan.
"Ma'am, are you awake?" Huang Ying walked in behind her, and saw her covering her head with her hands, with a painful look on her face, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?" Do you have a headache? ”
"Nope." Qu Wurong shook his head gently, "Maybe it's because I've slept for too long, my head is a little uncomfortable, and I should be fine after a while." ”
Hearing her say this, Huang Ying didn't ask any more, "Then Madame, get up and wash up." ”
After washing under her service, Qu Wurong walked out of the dormitory, and as soon as he walked out of the dormitory door, he saw Huang Li taking the palace maids to put breakfast on the table, and saw her take the initiative to speak: "Madame got up late today, and the breakfast prepared in the imperial dining room is not delicious if it is cold, these are all made for you by the slaves and maids in the small kitchen, can you taste it to see if it suits your appetite?" ”
Qu Wurong sat down at the table, the breakfast in front of her was very rich, but she didn't have any appetite at all, she just tasted everything and put down her chopsticks, so that Huang Li thought that the food she made was not to her taste, "Madam, don't you like these?" The slave will do it for you again! ”
She said that she was going to ask people to remove all the food on the table and replace it with a new one, but she was stopped by Qu Wurong, "It's not the problem of the food, it's that I don't have much appetite today, don't show it anymore!" ”
"Don't have an appetite?" Huang Li looked at her strangely, then reached out and touched her forehead, "I'm not sick, why don't you have an appetite?" Otherwise, ask the Imperial Doctor to come and take a look at you. ”
"No, I'm fine." Qu Wurong shook his head gently, "Probably because I didn't sleep well, you can accompany me to walk outside the palace later, maybe it will be better." ”
Huang Li and Huang Ying glanced at each other, and asked puzzledly, "Is Madam going out of the palace?" ”
Speaking of which, she was only more diligent in the year when she first came to Bailiao, and except for that year, she rarely mentioned the matter of leaving the palace again, why did she suddenly remember to leave the palace today?
In fact, Qu Wurong had her own plan to do this, after a chaotic night yesterday, her mind was much clearer today, and she also had a trace of doubt about what Xiao Nansheng said to her, why did he suddenly say those words to himself? Could it be that he deliberately said this in order to keep himself? The purpose is to break her thoughts about Shen Wu'an, so that she can stay in Bailiao with peace of mind?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that there was such a possibility, otherwise how could she explain that the person Shen Wu'an married would actually be Qu Wuwu, something that would not happen at all?
Thinking of this, Qu Wurong couldn't sit still anymore, she had to personally verify the authenticity of this news, if it was really like what Xiao Nansheng said, then she had to stop Shen Wu'an no matter what, she couldn't let her son live next to such a dangerous woman, even if it was just for a day, her heart was about to rise, and she definitely couldn't allow such a thing to happen!
So, she thought of leaving the palace.
His mind tossed and turned thousands of times in an instant, and then Qu Wurong remembered to answer Huang Li's question, "Yes, I haven't been out of the palace for a long time, and today's weather is also good, which is very suitable for going out for a walk." ”
"Then ......," Huang Ying said hesitantly, "Do you have to talk to the lord of the country like before?" ”
"Hmm." Qu Wurong nodded, there was nothing abnormal in his expression, "You two let's see who goes for a run, and when you come back, we'll leave the palace." ”
The two girls glanced at each other, and Huang Li took the initiative to ask, "I'd better go." With that, he left.
Qu Wurong asked people to remove all the food in front of him, and asked Huang Ying to make himself a cup of tea, and while drinking tea leisurely, he waited for Huang Li to come back from Xiao Nansheng.
Seeing that her expression was no different from usual, and she was no longer as depressed as last night, Huang Ying thought about it and asked cautiously, "Madam, are you okay?" ”
"Huh?" Qu Wurong was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she was worried about her watch yesterday, so she smiled and waved her hand, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry!" ”
Since it is still uncertain whether what Xiao Nansheng said is true or false, there is no need for her to continue to feel sorry for herself, and she still has to wait until she confirms the truth of this matter before making a decision.
Huang Li quickly turned back, followed by Xu Tianming, who still had no expression on his face, and after he entered the door and saluted Qu Wurong, he stood aside with his hands in his hands.
Qu Wurong glanced at him, turned his head and asked Huang Li, "What did the lord of the country say?" ”
"Oh, the lord of the country said that if Madame wants to go out of the palace to relax, it would be better to go, anyway, with Xu Guard, he doesn't have to worry about Madame's safety." Huang Li relayed Xiao Nansheng's words to her in their original form.
If this usually sounds like nothing, but after something like last night's happened, Qu Wurong felt awkward anymore, but she didn't say anything, and stood up and walked outside.
After they left the palace gate, they didn't wander around as casually as before, and this time Qu Wurong had a very clear destination, so he asked the coachman to drive them directly to the south of the city.
When the carriage drove to a ready-to-wear shop, Qu Wurong suddenly lifted the curtain and stopped, and several people then got out of the carriage, told the coachman to wait outside, and then walked into the ready-to-wear shop.
As soon as a few people entered the door, the guys in the shop greeted them and asked them enthusiastically what they wanted to buy. ”
"Huh?" Unexpectedly, they didn't come to buy clothes, but to find someone, the guy was stunned for a moment, and asked again uncertainly, "Guest officer, are you looking for our shopkeeper?" ”
"Yes, that's right." Qu Wurong nodded, took out a piece of Eryu Jue from his sleeve pocket and handed it to him, "If your shopkeeper is here, you can show him this, and he will see us when he sees it." ”
The guy took Yu Jue, said "Wait a minute" to her, and then lifted the curtain and went into the back hall.
When Qu Wurong did this just now, he didn't deliberately avoid the few people behind him, and Huang Ying and the others didn't talk much, they each looked at the ready-to-wear clothes sold in this shop, and didn't put their minds on her, which made Qu Wurong feel very pleased.
The guy who went in to report quickly turned back and made a "please" gesture to Qu Wurong, "This guest officer, the shopkeeper of our family, please go to the back hall to talk." ”
"Hmm." Qu Wurong nodded, and instructed the other three people: "You three wait here for me for a while, I'll talk to their shopkeeper about something, and I'll come out soon." ”
Seeing that the other three people had answered, she followed the fellow into the back hall.
Closely connected to the front shop was a small courtyard with two entrances, and the guy led Qu Wurong through the first courtyard to the front of a room at the back, raised his hand and knocked on the door, "Shopkeeper, the guest has arrived." ”
As soon as his words fell, the door in front of him was opened from the inside with a "squeak", and what appeared in front of the two of them was a man about thirty years old, he glanced at the two people standing in front of him, and then waved his hand to the guy, "You go get busy first." ”
"Yes!" The fellow agreed, and trotted away.
It wasn't until his figure disappeared from sight that the shopkeeper bowed to Qu Wurong, and then made a gesture of "please", "Concubine Niangniang, please come inside!" ”
"You know me?" Qu Wurong walked into the room and asked strangely, everyone here calls her "Madam", and when they meet, they call her "Guifei Niangniang", this shopkeeper should be the big beam!
The shopkeeper hurriedly replied: "The small surname Lu came here from Tiandu City to do business, a few years ago, the small one had a relationship with An Le Hou, Hou Ye specially instructed the small one, if someone takes the other half of this jade Jue to find it, let the small one be entertained!" ”
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "The little one only learned after inquiring about it later, it turned out that the concubine Niangniang married here, and I thought that the person who the Hou Ye let the little good student entertain should be the concubine Niangniang!" ”
After listening to his words, Qu Wurong finally understood, no wonder when An Lehou left, he left this piece of Eryu Jue to her, saying that when she wanted to bring news to Daliang, she took Yujue here to find the shopkeeper, it turned out that this was specially arranged for her before he left!
It's a pity that she has never used this piece of jade jue in the past three years, and today is the first time.
Now that he has understood each other's identities, Qu Wurong will not see him, and after sitting down, he will directly say straight to the point: "I came this time to ask the shopkeeper to help me verify one thing. ”
