Chapter 144: Deliberate Isolation
Wei Zheng actually helped Xie Fuyao speak!
Xie Yurou clenched her fists tightly, her face was gloomy, and the anger in her eyes was like a flickering candlelight in front of her, flickering with a deep color.
"All the incense is fine, why is there only one in Miss Xie's hand that has a problem. The cold words flowed faintly from Wei Jingyao's mouth.
Xie Fuyao's heart tightened, what did he mean by this? Could it be that he was going to fall into the well.
Today's situation is really completely out of his control, not to mention Wei Zheng's problems, even Wei Jingyao is strange.
Yuan Zheng was overjoyed in his heart, and was thinking about saying something more, but he didn't expect Wei Jingyao to continue to speak.
"The king doesn't believe that this is a so-called accident, just like the fire outside the city, the assassins on Stone Cliff Street, someone must be in the way and trying to disturb the blessing service. ”
Wei Jingyao's expression was cold, and the words he said were even more ruthless.
"Since there is a problem with the incense, then it should start with the incense, all the people who have touched the incense are suspected, and they can always find the murderer one by one. ”
Yuan Zheng only felt that his head was pricked by a needle, and it exploded, and his palms were covered with sticky sweat, this King of Chu was really ghostly.
Looking at each other, Xie Fuyao lowered his head slightly, Wei Jingyao's eyes were as warm as water, rippling with ripples.
The slight invisible movement, but it did not escape Concubine Cheng's eyes, Concubine Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the well-behaved Xie Fuyao who was kneeling.
No wonder she has always felt so familiar, it turned out to be the woman who danced the sword at the last Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, Yao'er seemed to be a little unusual to her.
"Enough, do you guys think this palace doesn't exist?"
Concubine Lin's lips opened slightly, her eyebrows were slightly raised, her cold voice was as thin as a knife, and her afterglow swept over Wei Jingyao, revealing a displeased look.
A little King of Chu is so unpopular, even if he is in the limelight outside, he dares to give orders at the sacrificial ceremony he held, he wants to win over Xie Fuyao, and he doesn't want to betray him this opportunity.
"Today's matter, prayer is important, now the people outside the city are in dire straits, you still have the heart to fight in front of the Buddha, where is this to put the palace, and where is the emperor placed?"
"Niangniang forgive your sins!" Qi Shushu knelt down in the Baohua Palace, and Concubine Lin glanced at it with satisfaction, and her expression was correct.
"Since this is an accident, I went again in the past, so why bother holding on to it, if you have this leisure, it is better to chant more scriptures at home!"
This is the first time he has held such a grand ceremony, if something goes wrong, it will inevitably be bad to reach the emperor's ears, but it is better to turn a big thing into a small thing and give yourself a good name.
"Alright, let's go ahead. Concubine Lin waved her hand.
"Thank you, Concubine Lin. Yuan Zheng's eyes were cold, but she didn't show anything on the surface, she stood up and stepped aside.
Originally, she thought that Concubine Lin was short-tempered and wanted to use Concubine Lin's anger to punish Xie Fuyao, but she didn't think of a deeper layer.
This small episode did not affect everyone's interest, and the blessing session continued to be in full swing.
There was no room for the incense burner the size of a water tank, and the ceremony was successfully concluded.
Xie Fuyao had already stood with a sore back, and instead of doing something meaningless here, it was better to go outside and personally help a few victims.
"You have worked hard, my master, I have prepared a meal and some vegetarian food in the garden behind the Baohua Palace, please come with the miscellaneous family. ”
The inner supervisor pinched his thin and tight throat and stood in the middle of the crowd, conveying Concubine Lin's instructions.
Step on the stone staircase and pass through the cloister of the treasure flower shop, and you will see the big red courtyard wall, and the big word "Zen" is engraved on the wall.
The apricot-yellow ridge and emerald green towering ancient trees add a bit of Zen to the corresponding procedures, and the whole courtyard is very vast, which is different from the backyard of a traditional temple.
Dense bamboos sway along the wall, and winding corridors are interspersed in the middle of the bamboo forest.
The four-legged pavilion resembles a starry pond that surrounds a lotus pond in the center that resembles a bright moon.
Right now, you are late autumn, and the time for lotus flowers to bloom has long passed, but the withered yellow lotus leaves have a different scenery.
The palace maids dressed in red clothes carried the meal in a neat and orderly manner, passed through the corridors on both sides, and placed them on the stone tables in the pavilion one by one.
There are six stone benches next to each stone table, so you can sit at will, and you don't have to be rigid as before.
Such a chic banquet, Xie Fuyao is still the first time to see it, presumably Concubine Lin has spent a lot of thought for today's grand ceremony.
"Mrs. Xie, long time no see. ”
Mrs. Dong, who was a waiter in the Ministry of Works, greeted her warmly and walked from afar with her beloved daughter.
Xie Fuyao vaguely remembered that this person should be Yuan Zheng's close friend, judging from their attitude towards themselves, Yuan Zheng was afraid that he would say bad things about himself to them.
"Hey, it turned out to be Mrs. Dong, just now I thought of inviting you over to enjoy a meal together. Yuan Zheng smiled from ear to ear.
"Aunt is well. Xie Yurou smiled in her eyes, and Shi Shiran blessed her body, posing like a famous lady.
Right now in the palace, there are 10,000 pairs of eyes staring at every word and deed, although Xie Fuyao didn't wait to see Mrs. Dong, he still said a few perfunctory sentences.
Mrs. Dong didn't seem to see Xie Fuyao, so she just took Xie Yurou's hand and looked it up and down.
"I haven't seen you for a while, the third lady is getting brighter, the daughter of this big house is different, and she looks better if she is well-educated. ”
Mrs. Dong praised without hesitation, and the meaning in her heart was self-evident.
Xie Fu lowered his head and pretended not to hear, no wonder Yuan Zheng liked to bring himself out so much before, standing with Xie Yurou, he was a foil at all.
"Sister Yurou, why don't we go over there for a walk. Dong Jingqiu greeted Xie Yurou warmly, making it clear that she deliberately wanted to make Xie Fuyao ugly.
is still comfortable being used as a gun, and Xie Fuyao is too lazy to be angry with such a brainless person.
Xie Yurou hesitated slightly, now is a great opportunity to contact the Sixth Prince, if he leaves with Dong Jingqiu like this, I am afraid that he will ruin his plan.
But Dong Jingqiu has always been petty, and if she rejects her, it will inevitably make her unhappy.
"Eighth sister, why don't you go with us, mother is here to chat with Mrs. Dong, and it is very inconvenient for you to be next to you. ”
Xie Yurou's eyes fluttered, and she thought of an excellent idea, with Xie Fuyao by her side, it would be much more convenient to support Dong Jingqiu in a while.
But if he didn't want Dong Jingqiu, he directly blocked Xie Yurou's way.
"Yurou, I want to talk to you privately, I'm afraid it's a little inconvenient to call outsiders. Dong Jingqiu sneered triumphantly.
She did this deliberately to isolate Xie Fuyao and give Xie Yurou a bad breath.
