Chapter 138: Two Tigers Fight (3)
Liu Wu said goodbye without saying goodbye, even Su Yuming didn't know where she went, Wang Shulin sat in Taifu Siqing Mansion for a while and then left in a huff. Wang Shulin and Su Yuming only sat in the hall for a quarter of an hour, but rumors spread in the house about the misbehavior of the two. But after half a day, the whole house said that the second lady Yun's "old lover" in Luo'an came to visit her in the house, and the two of them recalled the old love, and wept and sentimental, comforting each other, in short, how ambiguous to say.
Ye Cizhun happened to be in the court on this day by the Ministry of Shangshu Han Yang general, Xue Chunyue and Ye Ci Brigadier General Household Department and Taifu Temple management is very close, Han Yang in the household department and Taifu Temple can not insert people, unhappy, so seize the opportunity to instruct Yu Shitai to participate in his nepotism in the court, and promote Ye Zexian, who was a member of the Ministry of Household Warehouse, to Taifu Temple, and become the main adjutant of Taifu Temple. Emperor Hongyuan knew that Ye Zexian couldn't set off any big storms alone, but since the Ministry of Officials and the Imperial Historical Observatory were dispatched, he didn't want to obey these old ministers, so he admonished Ye Cizhun and Ye Zexian was transferred back to his original position.
Ye Cizhun was lit by Han Yang's wall-like old horseman, and he lost his temper when he returned to Taifu Temple. Ye Zexian was King Xu's person before, but now that King Xu has fallen, King Xi and Wei Yingshi are both snatching the people who carve up King Xu, he and Xue Chunyue are already polite, only a limited number of them have been wooed, Han Yang can't grab any talented people, and he doesn't dare to take King Xi and Wei Yingshi to be angry, so he came to find him, it's really a persimmon to pick a soft pinch!
I thought that I would go back to the house to find Su Yuming to drink tea and play chess to calm down my emotions, but who knew that as soon as I returned home, I heard the rumors of Wang Shulin and Su Yuming, and then thought of the past when Su Yuming had intersected with Wang Shulin in Zuichun Yuan before, and I was unhappy in my heart, and Yun Heju didn't go, and went back to my Chunhui Hall directly.
In the evening, Su Yuming did not come out for dinner, saying that she was unwell, so Ye Cizhun instructed the kitchen to send her a small table of meals to Yunheju, but soon someone said back and forth that the second lady had pushed the food, Ye Cizhun twisted his eyebrows, there was something wrong with the court, and now he didn't have a meal of peace and tea when he returned home, so he couldn't help but be a little angry.
Wei Zhiyu saw that he had a calm face, so he ordered him to go down and ask the kitchen to change a table of sweet and sour Haidong dishes to open his appetite, but Ye Cizhun was even more angry when he heard the word "Haidong", slapped the chopsticks on the table hard, and said angrily, "Is this home my Ye Cizhun or Haidong people?!" ”
Wei Zhiyu could only give up when he saw him like this, and ate with him without saying a word.
While eating, Ye Cizhun suddenly asked, "I heard that Lord Wei is going to tell a girl in the clan to Wang Shulin, the prince of Changying Hou, do you know about this?" ”
Wei Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and thought for a while and said, "This matter is urgent, my father didn't tell me in detail, but it should be true, and I heard my brother mention that Changying Hou also intends to marry our family, and Hou Ye wants to marry Miss Wang to his brother, so close to each other." ”
Ye Cizhun raised his head and listened, but did not speak for a long time.
Wang Bodang entered Beijing this time, personally set up an altar for the princess to pray, and the people half mocked and half laughed at the saying that he, a Taoist priest, had finally come in handy after so many years, but the ridicule was ridiculed, I don't know if it was a coincidence, after setting up the altar, the spirit of the princess was indeed a little better, she could sit up and talk to everyone, and her appetite was better.
Emperor Hongyuan was overjoyed, and Wang Bodang also took this opportunity to mention his son Wang Shulin to attack the lord, he returned to the mountains and forests, although Emperor Hongyuan did not promise on the spot, but smiled and bowed, saying that he would think about it for a few days, and the matter was somewhat accurate, everyone estimated that Emperor Hongyuan might let Wang Shulin attack the lord in the marriage edict, and Wang Shulin also won the heart of Emperor Hongyuan, Xue Peiqi transferred away the vacant position of Luo'an Mansion Yin, which should be Wang Shulin's political debut after taking over the power of the Wang family.
The Wang family has been operating in Luo'an for decades, and its strength should not be underestimated, before Wang Bodang was addicted to Taoist techniques and abolished the right thing, the Wang family was gradually forgotten by everyone, but now if the Wang family wants to go out of the mountain again, then the power of the Wang family has become the object of contention between the various factions in the court, just a married woman, who doesn't have it, as long as Wang Shulin wants, don't say one, a car will be sent! Wei Zhiyu knows this, but now her own affairs are still chaotic and complicated, and she has no intention of caring about these court political disputes anymore, and it seems that she just wants to stay out of the matter.
"I'm full, you can eat slowly."
Ye Cizhun left the table after dropping a sentence coldly, everyone looked at each other, a little panicked, but seeing that Wei Zhiyu was still indifferent, he couldn't say anything, so he could only be in a hurry.
Ye Cizhun just walked into the front yard of Yunheju and heard a sound of pipa like crying and complaining, and the sound of the piano flowing in the clouds, he hadn't heard it for a long time. Because Su Yuming borrowed the identity of the Yun family, she had to deliberately hide Su Yuming's shadow in front of everyone, so many old hobbies were put down, Ye Ci didn't listen to her play the piano for a long time, and now Wang Shulin asked her to pick up the pipa again as soon as she came, and she couldn't help but feel a burst of vinegar.
Pushing the door in, Du Juan was alert and was about to remind Su Yuming, but Ye Cizhun interrupted her and waved her out. Ye Cizhun listened quietly and waited until the end of the song. Su Yuming got up and shook his clothes, turned around and found that Ye Cizhun was already standing by his side, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"When did you come? Why don't you make a sound? Su Yuming got up to make tea for him, Ye Cizhun looked at Su Yuming, who still had some tear stains, a little displeased, her temperament has always been calm and peaceful, and she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, she will not be moved to cry easily, Wang Shulin just came to the house to sit down slightly, and she actually made her think about tea and dinner, and she was moved by tears, I really don't know what kind of friendship the two had in the Drunken Spring Garden!
"Why don't you even eat dinner, and be sad alone in this courtyard?" Ye Cizhun raised the teacup and asked casually.
"It's nothing, it's just that the catkins don't say goodbye and life and death are unknown, I'm a little worried...... Moreover, Wang Gongzi and Liu Fu can be regarded as a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks who know each other in the rivers and lakes, and now one party is trapped, and the life and death of the other party are unknown, so they can't help but feel a little sad......"
"Hmph, Prince Wang...... Whose son ...... it?"
Su Yuming looked at him in slight surprise and asked with some puzzlement, "What's wrong with you?" ”
The two rarely had trouble after being together, Su Yuming couldn't imagine that he would be angry with her for Wang Shulin, an irrelevant person, and she was a little unhappy in her heart, and she was feeling willow catkins, not Wang Shulin, I really don't know what he cares about.
"There are more than 100 people up and down in this mansion, you can spread rumors in this mansion today, and you can spread rumors outside the mansion tomorrow, not to mention that you still hide Su Yuming's true identity, you should be low-key, just say that now you are the wife of my Ye Cizhun Ming Media, and you are a married person, shouldn't you check some things? ! Besides, you care so much about the scars on your face, and you always hide them from me, why don't you shy away from Wang Shulin? ! ”
Su Yuming subconsciously touched the scar on his face that was still a little faint, he really cared about this now, she paused for a while and then put down the teapot and tried to explain, "I saw Wang Shulin not because I had any friendship with him, but because of Liu Wu." When I was in the Drunken Spring Garden, the catkins protected me a lot, and now her whereabouts are unknown, Wang Shulin came here because of this matter, how can I ignore him-"
"So you're just looking at each other in the hall and crying, ambiguous, and reverie?!"
Ye Cizhun said such a sentence coldly, Su Yuming was a little stunned, and looked at him in a daze, unable to react to how to answer. Seeing her speechless, Ye Cizhun felt even more annoyed, slammed the table with a "bang", and then got up and left, leaving Su Yuming, who didn't know why, behind him.
The cuckoo was about to come in with a plate of dim sum, and bumped into Ye Cizhun who was leaving angrily, she couldn't avoid it, and the cups and plates in her hand were hit by Ye Cizhun and fell to the ground one after another, "clang" There was a sound, the porcelain pieces splashed everywhere, and the cuckoo was startled, and quickly stood sideways to the side and let Ye Cizhun out.
Seeing that it took a while for Ye Cizhun to leave, the cuckoo came back to his senses, walked in blankly, and asked in a daze, "Miss...... What's going on......"
Su Yuming calmly looked at the disk fragments on the ground, and only said after a while, "Cuckoo, let's ...... Let's leave Changxing, the land of right and wrong, for the time being......"
Three days later
Su Yuming resigned to Ye Cizhun and said that he had not returned to his relatives after getting married, and he wanted to go back to Luo'an to visit his father Yun Xiangming. Ye Cizhun didn't stop him, and originally sent a few guards from the palace to set off with her, but Su Yuming refused, only brought Du Juan and two Tai Xiangxing's guards, and set off the next day.
Ye Cizhun quietly followed, sending her all the way out of the city gate, watching her carriage disappear on the official road......
Xue Chunyue, who was accompanying him, looked at him with a cold and slightly lonely look, sighed and said, "Why are you doing this? Just because of the little thing with Wang Shulin, it's worth making such an awkward fuss? ”
Ye Cizhun pursed his lips and was silent for a while before he said, "I just want her to be soft, who knew she was so stubborn?" ”
"I just want her to be soft? I'm afraid it's not that simple, right? Do you dare to say that it's not because of Xue Huijin's account book of Drunken Spring Garden? ”
Hearing the "account book" twice, Ye Cizhun involuntarily twisted his eyebrows.
Really......
The Song family copied a lot of things from Zuichun Garden, including an account book that recorded the number of times the girls accompanied them, on which everything was detailed, who the benefactor was, how much money was spent, the time and place, etc., should be remembered. Those who have visited Flower Street and Willow Lane know that this is used to record the girl's "attendance" time, one is to avoid sin with reasonable contraception, and the other is unfortunate to know whose kind it is, and it is one thing for the other party to be responsible, but he should always know his own business.
That account book impressively recorded the record of musician Su Yu accompanying Wang Shulin alone, and there were many times. Xue Huijin had long suspected that the second lady Ye Cizhun married was Su Yuming, so he deliberately leaked the account books to Ye Cizhun and waited for Ye Cizhun to show his feet.
Xue Huijin is Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it, so Xue Chunyue is not surprised by his little tricks, but what makes him puzzled is that Wei Zhiyu is obviously an understanding person, and he is also the best mediator of the conflict between Ye Cizhun and Su Yuming, but he ignores the contradiction between Ye and Su. Not only that, Wang Shulin was able to meet Su Yuming alone in Ye Mansion "coincidentally", and the subordinates of Ye Mansion "coincidentally" saw Wang and Su comforting each other and wiping away tears, and other seemingly ambiguous behaviors, without Wei Zhiyu's assistance, I am afraid it would be difficult to do it.
