Chapter 206: Undercurrent
Lin Chen looked at Ruan Wanwan's back as she walked away, her clenched fists loosened and tightened, her good-looking brows were tightly locked, and her mouth flipped a few times, but in the end, she didn't say anything, sighed, and left from the same place.
Although Ruan Wanwan didn't pay attention to what Lin Chen was thinking, she left the prince's mansion in a hurry, preparing to go to the place where Bei Liangye usually went to find him, but she just asked the maid to prepare the carriage, and when she turned around, she bumped into Xiao Luxi who came in a hurry.
Xiao Luxi was holding a cup of hot soup in his hand, and the two collided, obviously no one would have expected this, and the cup of soup all hit Ruan Wanwan's body.
Ruan Wanwan's right hand, which was exposed outside, suddenly turned red.
Xiao Luxi reacted quickly, and after seeing that the person he bumped into was Ruan Wanwan, he hurriedly made a big salute to Ruan Wanwan, his head down and he didn't dare to look up, "Damn, damn it, damn it, I'm really blind, I didn't see my sister here, I blame me for being anxious, sister... You okay? ”
Ruan Wanwan shook her hand, hurriedly blew, smiled without smiling, and pretended not to care and said, "Hurry up, this is not your fault." ”
Xiao Luxi still refused to get up, looking at Ruan Wanwan's red and swollen hands, her eyebrows tightened, "Sister come with me." ”
Ruan Wanwan was dragged by her to Xiao Luxi's own yard, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, Xiao Luxi suddenly didn't care about her dignity, and hurriedly rummaged through the cabinets and found a porcelain vase.
"What is this?"
Xiao Luxi opened the porcelain vase, poured out the white powder inside and applied it to Ruan Wanwan's hand, and said: "This is sent by the prince a long time ago, I haven't used it, I thought it was going to fall at the bottom of the box, who knew that today I accidentally bumped into my sister, this... I'm afraid I'll leave a scar..."
Ruan Wanwan felt a chill on her hands, not as painful as just now, so she put away her hands, "It's okay, find a good doctor with some ointment then, and it won't get in the way." She was now full of just wanting to find Bei Liangye, and she didn't think much about Xiao Luxi's somewhat abnormal behavior today, but asked symbolically: "I just saw my sister so anxious, but what's the urgency?" ”
Xiao Luxi asked with a puzzled expression, "Doesn't my sister know?" The prince came to the house not long ago, saying that he asked someone to send a bowl of hot soup over, it seemed to be in a hurry, and I was afraid that something would happen so I sent it personally. ”
Ruan Wanwan caught the important information in the words, "The prince is in the mansion?" ”
Xiao Luxi's face was even more confused, "Sister, don't you know?" ”
Ruan Wanwan shook her head, and suddenly smelled something strange in her heart, Bei Liangye was in the mansion, but just now Lin Chen told her that she was not there, hooked her lips and smiled, Ruan Wanwan suppressed the suspicion in her heart, and said to Xiao Luxi: "I was just about to go to the prince for some business, sister wants to be together?" ”
Xiao Luxi said: "I won't go, what happened just now is probably the impatient again, I still have some scriptures that I haven't copied, so I won't delay my sister." ”
Ruan Wanwan bowed slightly, didn't say anything more, suppressed the doubts in her heart, turned around and left Xiao Luxi's small courtyard, and hurriedly went to the main courtyard of Beiliangye.
Xiao Luxi watched Ruan Wanwan leave, and the porcelain vase that he was still holding in his hand was disdainfully thrown on the table, tidied up his appearance, and turned around and went in the opposite direction with Ruan Wanwan.
Here, Ruan Wanwan came to Bei Liangye's study, and was about to push the door, when she found that there was a voice talking inside, and after thinking about it, Ruan Wanwan still took a step back, ready to wait for them to finish talking before going in.
As a result, I didn't expect Bei Liangye to come lightly, "Come in." ”
Ruan Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door and entered. Raised his eyes and looked at the person who was standing not far from Bei Liangye talking, he was wearing a cloth coat, he looked quite clean, and there was no expression on his unattractive face, but Ruan Wanwan still saw the caution in his eyes.
Bei Liangye didn't know what he was writing at the desk, his eyes didn't rise, and he said, "Go on." ”
Ruan Wanwan stood aside, feeling a little embarrassed inexplicably.
The man in the cloth robe glanced at Ruan Wanwan, only hesitated for half a second, and then continued: "Reliable news, the eldest prince will arrive at noon tomorrow." ”
Bei Liangye didn't speak, rolled up the written things, packed them with a special bamboo tube and walked to the window, just as a white pigeon flew in, and released the carrier pigeon after putting the bamboo tube away.
"Now that the dark waves are surging above the court, how can he not come back to take a trip to this troubled water?"
Buyi thought for a moment and said, "What else do you need your subordinates to do?" ”
"Come back, I'll find someone else to replace the matter over there."
"But this..."Bu Yi wanted to ask something, but was interrupted by Bei Liangye-
Bei Liangye gathered the excess emotions in his eyes, and said coldly: "Do you think that you can hide the matter of your visit to the Prince's Mansion today?" ”
Only then did Bu Yi realize the seriousness of the matter, consciously shut up, and left after saluting.
Seeing people leaving, he spoke, "You are so blatant in releasing carrier pigeons, not afraid of being stopped?" ”
Bei Liangye glanced at her.
Ruan Wanwan immediately understood.
Naturally, the carrier pigeon was not useful information, and Bei Liangye couldn't be stupid enough to be like that.
"The eldest prince returns to Beijing, do you have any plans for this?" Ruan Wanwan asked.
Bei Liangye was still writing, and his hands didn't stop, "I don't have any plans." ”
Ruan Wanwan was a little puzzled, "This is not like your style." ”
The corners of Bei Liangye's mouth curved an arc, "I didn't plan to do anything to him, I haven't threatened me for the time being, don't worry." ”
Ruan Wanwan approached and found that Bei Liangye was criticizing the recent recital about the floods in the south, and it stands to reason that now Bei Liangye's identity, this kind of recital will not be handed to him.
Bei Liangye sensed her doubts and explained: "The situation in the court is turbulent, the fifth child's actions are getting bigger and bigger, the sixth child can't come up with an attitude, and the harem has never moved, my father is taking precautions." ”
Hearing this, Ruan Wanwan sneered coldly, "It's a good calculation." ”
After Bei Liangye finished writing the last word, he put away the fold, squinted his eyes, and said, "Some people can't bear it." ”
Ruan Wanwan then remembered the palace banquet tomorrow night, "I guess I'm holding back the move." A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly asked, "Have you got the evidence I asked my cousin to give you before?" ”
Bei Liangye nodded, "It's handled." ”
Ruan Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief, but there was always an ominous premonition in her heart, which made her panic, so she could only forcibly suppress it and force herself not to think too much.
At noon the next day, the group was outside the city but did not wait for the carriage of the great prince.
Three hours had passed since the agreed time, and at sunset, the people who were speculating and uneasy sent a group of people to investigate.
When night fell, everyone at the palace banquet where singing and dancing was leveled had no intention of admiring the graceful dancing girls in front of them.
