Chapter 5 Biluo
When she was about to leave, she met Tao Tao, they were very happy with each other, asked each other about the current situation, and patted each other on the shoulder before she said, "Do you often go in and out of the Qin Palace?" In this way, we will be able to see each other more often in the future, right? ”
As soon as the words were finished, Fang Jue was speechless, as if she was going to live here for a long time, and hurriedly added, "Last time I promised to invite you to eat abalone cucumber from the East China Sea, I never had a chance, and when I left the Qin Palace, we will go to the sea for a meal." ”
"Wow." Tao Tao subconsciously took her hand when he was happy. They are friends who grew up together, and there is no distinction between men and women in each other's hearts, and others seem to be ambiguous.
Shen Muchi's gaze moved back to the book he was holding, and he suddenly said, "You have something to do with this king?" ”
Oh, yes! Yang Taotao was shocked, he was so happy to meet Cai Ling that he almost forgot about the important things. He whispered to Cai Ling, "Wait outside, I'll talk about it after I'm done." ”
Cai Ling nodded, but King Qin looked away from the book again, looked at them with interest for a moment, and said, "This king thinks you are suitable." ”
Cai Ling felt as if there was a basin of cold water pouring over her head, he couldn't see or care about all the things she had done in the past, but now she only laughed and talked with her good friends, and he could talk about her marriage in vain.
His Highness smiled. Humble and Jiang Shao have been together since childhood, because they are too familiar, they are not thoughtful in words and deeds, and His Royal Highness atoned for his sins. Tao Tao should have suddenly remembered that Cai Ling is now married to a wife, and it is her husband who is sitting in the hall.
"You don't have to explain that much to him." Cai Ling patted his arm, the muscles were strong, it seemed that there had been a strengthening exercise recently, she gave Tao Tao an appreciative look, Tao Tao smiled back, and knew each other's hearts. Cai Ling didn't forget to say loudly when she left: "I won't be able to leave the Qin Palace's mansion for a while, you go to Dongxi Tower today to spread a message, and tell Jieyi that this girl is extremely dissatisfied with the financial management of Jiang's firm, how can she blackmail others without evidence!" ”
She didn't leave the room without looking back after she finished speaking, Tao Tao heard it in a fog, and subconsciously buckled her head, but the person behind the case picked up the book again, and the corners of her mouth hooked a beautiful arc.
"How is the prince?" King Qin only asked.
"It has arrived safely in Yuzhou." Tao Tao reported, "The assassin caught in Jinzhou committed suicide by poisoning last night, although the real culprit behind the scenes has not been found, but it has been determined that this person is a spy from the northern country. ”
"What about which one is poisoned in Suizhou?" King Qin asked again.
"The humble official came here to explain this matter to the prince." Tao Tao said, "The main culprit who poisoned the food of the waste prince in Suizhou has been recruited, and the person behind the scenes is ...... Academician of the Hanlin Academy, Lord Qiu. ”
King Qin was about to hold a pen to annotate the scroll, but this time he stopped his movements.
Qiu Zhibai, an academician of the Hanlin Academy, was his enlightenment teacher, in the years before the Queen Mother, Qiu Zhibai came to Ziwei Palace every day to lecture with him, and one day he talked about the two or three things of King Wen of Zhou, saying: "Painting the ground is a prison, carving wood is an official, and the government is sympathetic to the people." He couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly.
Tao Tao saw that the atmosphere was a little tense, and hurriedly said, "Lord Qiu wholeheartedly assists the prince, and it is a last resort to make this decision." ”
The prince only said, "Check if Qiu Zhibai has any connection with the Northern Kingdom." “
"Yes!" Tao Tao commanded. was about to say goodbye, but the prince left him, "You came just in time, this king likes this collection of poems very much, and he has to win people's love, and this king is unwilling to give it." You can write well, anyway, there is no urgency, just sit down and help this king copy the book. ”
Copy the book! He was ordered to investigate whether the academician of the Hanlin Academy had anything to do with the spies of the Northern Kingdom, this is a big deal, and how could he be reduced to copying books.
Tao Tao glanced out the window, Cai Ling's girl was still pacing back and forth in the yard, because of the distance, from time to time she could see her hair in a round bun coming out of the window lattice and falling, which made him panic in his heart.
Even so, he didn't dare to refuse, so he had to pick up the Zihao pen and write it one by one.
Suddenly, he asked tentatively: "Jiang Shao...... Oh, Miss Jiang Si is still outside the house, can you go and inform her first? He quickly changed his name.
"No need!" The prince raised his chin lightly and motioned for him to continue, "You don't have to overestimate her patience. ”
In the past, Weifu went to the store to eat, she never refused to wait for the table, as far as he knew, she wanted to go to Dongxi Lou to drink on a whim one day, and she had to wait for half an hour when she was full without booking a table, so she bought the restaurant in a fit of anger.
In the end, he has known her since childhood, and he knows her temperament.
Cai Ling couldn't wait for Tao Tao left and right, and jumped up and looked around, and after inquiring with the maid, she knew that Yang Gongzi was discussing important matters with the prince, so she left a message saying that she would go back to the residence first.
The boxes in the firewood room were still waiting for her to move.
But she didn't have to move it herself, she only took out a silk and gave it to Manyun, and after a while, several girls came to help, she just sat in the yard drinking tea and watched them busy.
When everything was arranged, she took out many winter jackets from the box, "The weather is getting cooler, everyone should dress warmly." ”
Although the little girls have been in the palace for several months, they have never seen such exquisite fabrics and such exquisite clothes, one by one is very happy, holding the winter jacket as if a treasure, there is a very eye-catching girl actually thanked: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”
Your Highness. Her Royal Highness the Princess of Qin? She smiled and put the teacup down. In the past, I tried my best to get this title, but now it doesn't sound like that.
After the person left, she snuggled on the couch and thought carefully, since her life had a new direction, she wanted to carry forward the Jiang business, and she could not let the stack of papers become a certificate of coercion by others, and she had to destroy it in the shortest possible time. Thinking about it, tonight is the time to break into Shen Muchi's residence at night.
The moonlight was just right tonight, and she lied to Manyun that she was very tired and wanted to go to bed early, but she wore a light regular dress and quietly sneaked to Shen Muchi's place.
Because he heard that he held a banquet in Qingyun Pavilion at night, he should not go back to his residence for a while, so Cai Ling acted more arrogantly, and even generously pushed open the hidden full moon door.
No, how can there be a piano sound inside the door? The melodious melody was calming, and she hadn't been quiet for a long time to listen to the piano, which sounded so elegant, and she didn't expect him to have such an elegant waiter by his side.
She wanted to see it.
"Why are you here?" The man sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard was none other than Shen Muchi, who was raising his eyes to look at her this time.
And the person in the pavilion who stroked the piano wore a pale cyan gauze skirt, his long black hair fluttered lightly with the evening breeze, his bare hands plucked the strings lightly, and his white face and lips were lightly opened, singing a melodious tune.
It turns out that Biluo is so beautiful. She was blinded by jealousy in the past, and she had never seen Biluo's weakness, but tonight she knew that her talent and appearance were excellent, no wonder so many families in the capital tried their best to make her smile.
She stood in the corner and listened quietly to her singing, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm in the wrong place." Disturb. ”
Looks like tonight isn't the time to get things back, and she should have fun walking away. I don't know why, since she knew that Shen Muchi was not willing to marry her, she actually let it go.
All kinds of attachments in the past are unwilling, and they are all turned into the death of the heart now. Even if the Prime Minister fell victim to Gong Dou, her parents were also old and supported in Shudi, but she must not trap herself in a dead situation.
He had never seen such a quiet Jiang Cailing, and the one he remembered was that she was laughing, playful, naughty and fearless, but she had never stood quietly in such a lost place.
When the evening breeze passed, her skirt was lightly raised, her brows were frowning, and the osmanthus flowers that blew down from the tree fell on her hair and shoulders, but she only kept her eyes on the blue fall.
"Come here." He never thought he would say this.
"Nope." She replied.
He put down his glass and looked at her closely, it was supposed to be the first time she had refused to come near him. Did she take the wrong medicine?
"I'll go back now." She looked around the house, there were a lot of maids and guards, and if she wanted to sneak in through the window, she was afraid that she would die, and she had to find another opportunity to wait for the opportunity.
Shen Muchi stood up and walked to Cai Ling, he was tall, and this time he lowered his head slightly and looked at her carefully, "You just want to leave the Qin Palace, it is your character to swear not to give up in order to achieve your goal, but this obedient appearance is never rare, this king likes it very much, continue to keep it." ”
She knew very well that this was just a joke, laughing at her for being too arrogant in the past but not getting his heart, and now it was useless to be obedient. She chuckled to hide the sadness in her heart, and said, "If you like it, it's fine." ”
The sound of the piano on that side stopped abruptly, and it was Biluo who plucked the strings.
He was slightly stunned, and turned his head to Biluo to cast a soft gaze, which contained an unfathomable smile, very proud.
Cai Ling suddenly understood, his previous words sounded ridiculous to her, but in Biluo's ears, they became flirtatious, his purpose was to make Biluo jealous, it was really clever.
Looking at his back as he turned around and flew away, she actually forgot to brush her sleeves and left, and only quietly watched him pacing Biluo and sitting down, hugging him in her arms and feeding a grape.
She couldn't remember how she left like a ghost, it was really useless, since she was determined to be clear, how could she still have these sad emotions.
It turned out that she didn't have the excellent quality that she thought she could afford to put down. But she was determined to push hard in that direction.
