Chapter 235: Baili Jiao returned home
However, this time Wei Cheng would not allow it, and hurriedly wrote a letter and passed it on again, so that all the eyeliners stationed in the capital would pay attention to every move around them.
Thinking about Su Zhenzhen in his heart, but Wei Cheng tried his best to restrain himself from thinking about it or reading it, and finally managed to deal with the official document until dawn, stretched his waist and walked out.
In the spring, what has changed is people and things, and what has not changed is always the scenery in front of you.
This time, Wei Cheng seemed to have constricted his possessiveness, just put Su Zhenzhen by his side, and did not force Su Zhenzhen to do things against his will.
So Su Zhenzhen is not bored or happy here, but more like hiding here to heal silently.
And Wei Cheng is also ordering people to start the family banquet, and there is a small section at the end of the month, and the people who will be invited are some surrounding cronies, not high-ranking officials and nobles such as the emperor's relatives and relatives.
August conveyed the news to Su Zhenzhen, and said happily: "At that time, the princess can meet more friends and talk and relax." It's not like August who is stupid and won't make you happy. ”
"In August, I'm very happy to have you by my side."
Su Zhenzhen knew that the people around her were caring about her, but her mood just couldn't burn, and she was completely dead.
August makes a lot of sweets for Su Zhenzhen to eat every day, because she remembers that Su Zhenzhen said that eating sweets can make people feel better, hoping to sweep away Su Zhenzhen's negativity.
"I'll take you for a walk in August."
Su Zhenzhen stayed in this pavilion every day to watch the fish, and in August she was afraid that if she continued like this, her princess would go crazy, so she tried every means to get Su Zhenzhen up and walk around.
The spring is just right, and there is still the wind, so August proposes to put paper kites. There happened to be an open space behind the palace, and there were no people, which was just right.
After a while, August came with a colorful butterfly paper kite, and forcibly brought Su Zhenzhen to the back mountain.
There is a small high slope in the back mountain, which can be used as a point for paper kites to take off. August pulled the string and put the paper kite in Su Zhenzhen's hand.
Su Zhenzhen's mood was obviously aroused, she was no longer depressed, and ran high on the flat ground holding a paper kite.
At this moment, Su Zhenzhen seems to have forgotten all her troubles, and only the vividness of running.
Soon a paper kite floated in the sky, fluttering its wings and flying high in the air.
August clapped his hands, and the master and servant seemed to return to the peaceful and happy days they had before.
"Raise it higher!"
The spool kept turning, and it had come to an end, and the paper kite couldn't get any higher. Suddenly, as if the transparent thread had been cut halfway, the paper kite, which had lost its support, immediately staggered and slid down.
"Oops!"
"Fell ......"
Su Zhenzhen ran after the falling paper kite, ran to the rockery for a while, and climbed to the low wall for a while.
"Princess, it's dangerous!"
Su Zhenzhen raised her feet and wanted to pick up the paper kite that fell on the rockery, but she was almost within reach, when suddenly her feet slipped, and the whole person suddenly slipped down.
August screamed, and a faster figure flashed past August, and his clothes flew up, and he had already caught Su Zhenzhen steadily.
The frightened Su Zhenzhen looked at Wei Cheng, and then quickly got out of Wei Cheng's arms.
"Thank you."
Wei Cheng looked at Su Zhenzhen, her feminine face was full of worry, and she frowned and said, "Don't do such dangerous things in the future." ”
With that, Wei Cheng spun around and jumped onto the rockery and picked up Su Zhenzhen's paper kite.
"That's it?"
Su Zhenzhen took back the paper kite, nodded and thanked Wei Cheng.
"This king will fly a kite with you."
After a while, Wei Cheng asked people to bring more than a dozen paper kites, all kinds of styles.
The subordinates put up all the kites, and they fluttered high in the air, which was very eye-catching, as if they were gathered into a prosperous world on earth.
Su Zhenzhen stood under the sky and watched quietly, her whole heart seemed to be hanging at a height with a paper kite.
"Push it higher!" Wei Cheng instructed the group of subordinates to hand the spool in his hand to Su Zhenzhen: "You can put it yourself." ”
Turning the spool, Su Zhenzhen felt that her mood at this time was extremely happy, and sure enough, this kind of thing was easy to mobilize her mood.
And Wei Cheng on the side finally found a way to make Su Zhenzhen happy, and secretly thought in his heart that if he was free these days, he must come to accompany Su Zhenzhen more.
August cheered together, clapped and applauded, "Princess, fly higher!" ”
A bright smile bloomed on Su Zhenzhen's face, and her slender fingers pulled the rope, pulling from time to time.
"In August, let's come and put paper kites every day from now on."
"Okay, accompany the princess every day in August!"
Wei Cheng quietly listened to the conversation between the master and servant, slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, and his whole face was full of some evil smiles, but when he looked at Su Zhenzhen, it turned into a gentle gaze.
Su Zhenzhen lived a small life with nothing to do, although it was dull, there was no wind and waves, she silently did the same thing every day to heal her wounds, and August has been by her side.
As for Wei Cheng, he would only take time to accompany Su Zhenzhen when he was not busy, and he kept ordering people to send things to Su Zhenzhen every day.
The family banquet at the end of the month was coming soon, and Wei Cheng didn't make any noise, but privately called some subordinates or cronies who had a good relationship on weekdays to come to the banquet.
Expecting that Su Zhenzhen would not want to come, Wei Cheng did not order his subordinates to invite Su Zhenzhen, but just sent some delicious and fun things to Su Zhenzhen.
Su Zhenzhen, who had just arrived at the courtyard, stretched her waist and suddenly saw a giant in front of her. object, asked August: "Who got this swing?" ”
August glanced at it curiously, "Ah, so last night's movement was just this swing?" It should have been made by the fourth prince. ”
To do all this, of course, Wei Cheng was coaxing Su Zhenzhen to be happy, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered to let people bring these things.
Sitting on the swing, Su Zhenzhen shook her feet and gently swung up, just like a paper kite flying high in the air that day. Wei Cheng really understood Su Zhenzhen's mind very well, and even the things she sent were so in line with her heart.
August pushed in the back from time to time, gently pushing Su Zhenzhen up.
The number of guests in the front yard gradually increased, and in the staggered manner, everyone's faces were smiling, and they couldn't tell the truth from the fake, Wei Cheng poured two glasses of wine and talked and laughed with a group of cronies.
At first glance, the Four Princes' Mansion was calm, but only the Chunwang Mansion was noisy, and everyone was in a high degree of tension.
Wei Han became more moody than before, smashing his glass and scolding people from time to time, as if everything was not as he wanted.
Mei Niang also became cautious, not daring to provoke Wei Han easily, let alone mentioning the matter of the two sharing a bed in front of Wei Han.
Wei Han, who finished his official business every day, would go to drink and get drunk, as if this was the only way to forget his troubles.
"Su Zhenzhen...... Where are you! Wei Han was walking in the courtyard in a trance, and Mei Niang behind him was very worried.
Suddenly, Wei Han rushed over and pinched Mei Niang's shoulder, and said drunkly, "Are you Su Zhenzhen?" ”
Mei Niang was heartbroken and disgusted, and smiled unnaturally.
"Lord Wang, I'm Mei Niang."
Wei Han let go of the person in front of him in disappointment and walked away like a madman, chanting a woman's name from time to time.
In desperation, Mei Niang had no choice but to let the people around her follow Wei Cheng in case of accidents.
On the other side, Concubine Hui, who had the same hatred and hatred, suddenly received a message early in the morning of the second day, saying that someone had seen Su Zhenzhen's trace in the Four Princes' Mansion.
Concubine Hui remembered what Wei Cheng had done before, and she didn't have a good attitude towards herself, and she stood on Su Zhenzhen's side three times and twice.
That's right! Concubine Hui thought angrily, why didn't she think to go to Wei Cheng's palace to find it? And Wei Cheng has bumped into himself several times.
Thinking of this, Concubine Hui hated it so much that she immediately sent her henchmen to do eyeliner outside the Four Princes' Mansion.
However, Su Zhenzhen almost didn't go out, and the person who revealed the news to Concubine Hui used anonymity, and Concubine Hui's henchmen didn't know whether the news was true or false for a while, so they could only guard outside the gate of King Chun's mansion every day.
Now almost all the secret agents in the capital are looking for Su Zhenzhen's people, but everyone is focused on the key point of whether Su Zhenzhen has escaped or not.
Su Zhenzhen didn't show up at the family banquet last night, maybe even Wei Cheng didn't know that the news of Su Zhenzhen in his house had spread, and now everyone outside was eyeing her, and there were hidden waves under the seemingly peaceful days.
In the morning of August, Su Zhenzhen was staring at a handkerchief, embroidered with the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and the style looked a little old.
"What is the princess looking at?"
Su Zhenzhen could see it, so she reacted, pretended to be fine, put the handkerchief back, and drank the ginseng soup.
"Who came to the banquet yesterday?" Su Zhenzhen asked.
In fact, Su Zhenzhen didn't care about who had been here at all, she just didn't have anything to say.
August sat down next to him, propped his face and said, "Well, it's just some cronies of the fourth prince or something, I can't see it clearly." ”
Su Zhenzhen was stunned and said, "Did you go to the front yard last night?" ”
"That's right." August nodded and smiled: "I was just about to get something, and I passed by the front yard, what's wrong?" ”
"It's fine." Su Zhenzhen took a sip of soup and was shocked, hoping that she had thought too much. knows that August is her personal maid, and if she is bumped into by those people, I don't know if she will leak the news that she is here.
But it's all Wei Cheng's people who come, so they shouldn't do this, right?
After settling down, Su Zhenzhen was still not very relieved, and the fear in her heart rose again.
"What's wrong? His face suddenly became so ugly. ”
August also became panicked, seeing that Su Zhenzhen's face turned pale in an instant, and the soup under her lips couldn't be drunk, she simply put the spoon down, and said with a heavy heart: "August, you will rarely show up in the front yard in the future." ”
"If you really want to get there, take the back road."
August knew Su Zhenzhen's doubts, and blamed herself for not being cautious in doing things yesterday.
Looking at August's worried look, Su Zhenzhen smiled and said, "Okay, don't think about it, I'm just keeping an eye on it." Shrewd! ”
Su Zhenzhen didn't know that her doubts had come true, and this kind of peaceful days would soon come to an end.
For several days, Concubine Hui's eyeliner has been sitting at the tea stall outside the Four Princes' Mansion, in order to wait for Su Zhenzhen to come out. But often only Wei Cheng was seen, or other unrelated people coming in and out.
Su Zhenzhen couldn't find any trace, and this Hui Guifei's eyeliner couldn't help but wonder if the news was really true, and reported it to Hui Guifei overnight. Unexpectedly, he also exposed his position.
All the forces are stationed in the capital, and everything is just to fight for the last fisherman's profit. Although Concubine Hui also has some power in the city, she is in the harem after all, and the world outside has long been equally divided.
So this eyeliner, which had not made a big move for a few days, was noticed by Wei Han's people.
All spies and eyeliners have one characteristic, that is, they are patient and good at detection. Besides, it must be something to sit in such an eye-catching place for so many days without leaving.
So, the news quickly spread to Wei Han's study.
The spy hurriedly came from outside to report, and the haze on his face for many days finally showed a hint of relief at this time.
"Back to the prince, there have been a lot of eyeliner from other forces outside the Four Princes' Mansion recently, do you want to check carefully?"
It's not uncommon to put eyeliner on the opposite side, but if you are blatant enough to spy on someone else's doorstep, then there must be a problem.
