Chapter 59: Night Detective
"My father knows, don't worry, just leave it to my father."
"Well, okay, father, food, let's eat first, I'm hungry." Seeing that his father was still a little self-blaming, Jing Xi couldn't help but change the topic.
As he spoke, his stomach was still very cooperative, and he was busy with business today, and it was not too early for this hour, so he was naturally hungry.
"Come on, pass the meal."
"Yes, lord."
After a while, the chef immediately brought the meal, and the table was full, full of color, flavor, and flavor.
Since Jing Xi was injured in his right hand, King Rong would directly take on the task of feeding his baby daughter.
Hold his daughter on his lap and sit down, and then King Rong gave Jing Xi a bowl of soup, scooped a spoonful, and carefully sent it to Jing Xi's mouth, King Rong said: "Come, Xi Xi, drink the soup first." ”
Yes......
Seeing this, Jing Xi had no choice but to follow his father, in fact, Jing Xi's injury was not serious, and it was just a scratch on his wrist, but in the eyes of King Rong, his baby daughter was injured, which was a great deal, and Jing Xi was helpless.
This meal was a great pleasure.
After his daughter returned to the room, King Rong instructed the secret guard to investigate the matter thoroughly, he was not at ease, he must investigate it carefully, and his daughter's safety was more important than anything else.
And when Jingxi's father and daughter were enjoying the joy of family, on the other side, in the temporary mansion of Qin Junshou:
Mrs. Qin told her husband everything that happened today, and like Mrs. Qin, Qin Zhijie was deeply fortunate, thanks to the county lord who saved An An, otherwise An An would ......
It's okay, it's okay.
However, the county lord's injury is a major event, and he will definitely go to the palace with his wife and children tomorrow to thank the county lord for saving his life. That night, the husband and wife took care of their son Qin An carefully, for fear that their son would not sleep well. Even when he returned home, he asked the doctor of Tongrentang to prescribe a tranquilizer to An An, which had the effect of calming the nerves and helping the frightened people sleep.
……
Pei Guohou Mansion, backyard, Lanchun Garden
A maid wearing a blue-green bandeau with narrow sleeves and a double bun ran into Lan Chunyuan in a panic, and glanced left and right with a particularly weak heart, and when she saw that no one was paying attention, she immediately closed the door, walked quickly to her master, lowered her head, and looked low and pleasing to her eyes.
"Miss, miss, it's not good......" The maid said to her master in a panic, because she was more anxious to go, she was panting at the moment, and reported intermittently to a beautiful young lady.
"Your young lady and I are very good, what are you panicking about? Talk back. The young lady in white looked at the appearance of her personal maid, a little angry, and then said sharply.
"What happened to what I asked you to do?" The young lady in white said again, not thinking about why her maid was so panicked, but thinking of her own plan, as well as Pei Huan's slut's next scene, she felt comfortable all over, and finally solved a thorn in the flesh.
Who knew that as soon as the words fell, the maid was even more flustered,
Tremblingly reported to the young lady: "Miss, something happened, the third young lady injured the county lord of Zhaoning in the downtown today." This ......" The maid looked up cautiously at her young lady, and stopped talking.
"That's not right, this Zhaoning county lord is deeply loved by King Rong, and now the county lord is injured, now my good third sister has to shed her skin if she doesn't die, right? And then he said, what happened?"
"Miss, the county lord didn't blame the third lady, but the slave maid always felt a little worried in her heart, what if ......?" Before the maid could finish speaking, she was interrupted by the young lady in white.
I only heard her say: "What does it have to do with me, this is the third sister herself who wants to be a street arranger, I stay in the house all day today, I don't know these things, do you hear clearly?"
"But......," the maid whispered to say something more......
"Miss Ben has said no, but I only ask you, have you dealt with it cleanly? If it is found, then you can save the consequences! Hum! Keep your mouth shut for me, what to say and what not to say, if not......" The young lady in white spoke fiercely, and the poor person who was usually Chu Chu had a hideous face at this time, without any gentleness and virtuousness, and he looked domineering.
Thump!
Seeing that the maid heard this, she immediately knelt on her knees, and promised again and again that she knew what the young lady meant, and she was sad in her heart, thinking of her family and her younger brother who went to school, gritted her teeth, bowed her head and said respectfully: "Miss, don't worry, this matter will never be implicated in the young lady." ”
Having said that, my heart is still sad. What Miss means she knows, it is nothing more than that if something happens, she must take full responsibility for the crime, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat, but if she takes the crime, she will still have to end up, okay?
"It's good to know, don't worry, as long as this matter is over, Miss Ben will give you a moon silver, and you can also go back to visit your family."
Hitting a stick and giving a candy is a trick that she is familiar with.
"Thank you, Miss! Thank you, Miss! Hearing this, the maid immediately thanked the young lady. Then he said, "Miss, what are we going to do now?"
"Let's wait and see, I heard that my third sister was injured?" The young lady in white raised her eyebrows, her heart was very comfortable, her greatest pleasure was to watch her good third sister fall into the dust step by step, and this injury, just in her opinion, can just stir up her spring plan. It's a double win.
"Yes, Miss, the slave maid just came back from the front yard, and saw that the third lady seemed to have injured her foot, and she was limping when she returned home." The maid reported to the young lady what she had just seen in the front yard.
Hearing this, the young lady in white was really happy, and casually took a hosta from her head and gave it to her. After the hosta under her hand, the maid was also blinded by the hosta in front of her, and immediately put her worries behind.
The master and the servant in the house here did not expect that the consequences of this incident would be far beyond what they had imagined.
Facts have proved that although Pei Guohou did not pay much attention to the private affairs in the backyard, Pei Guohou was old
The level of treacherous and cunning, how can you not see these pickled things? It's just that there are no major mistakes on weekdays, so I just turn a blind eye.
The lady in white thought that this matter could not be implicated in her, on the one hand, if she could not find the problem of the horse, then she could naturally sit back and relax. On the other hand, if she finds out, she feels that there is nothing wrong with her, and she can completely blame the maid for the crime, and she can easily solve this matter.
However, this time she miscalculated, her mistake was to underestimate the degree of favor of the prince to the county lord, and the degree of compliment of the major officials to King Rong now, too, she mostly stays in the inner courtyard of the Hou Mansion on weekdays, where does she know about this temple? This incident is a catastrophe for her, although the crime does not lead to death, but it is no longer taken seriously, how can she accept this for her, who has always been arrogant?
This lady in white is Pei Yin, the second lady of Pei Guohou's family, and the maid in blue and green clothes is the eldest maid in her courtyard.
When she learned early that the third sister Pei Huan planned to go out with her friends for the Spring Festival, she planned this matter single-handedly, thinking that she could sit back and relax, but who knew that the big Buddha of the county lord of Zhaoning was implicated, so that the consequences were unimaginable.
……
Today's horse incident is well known, so that after King Rong sent a secret guard to investigate, he quickly came to the result, involving the matter of Pei Guohou's backyard, King Rong did not intend to investigate deeply, but his daughter was injured, he felt that he must knock Pei Guohou a stroke, so as not to provoke any cats and dogs to his baby daughter in the future.
Yes, after dealing with Jing Xi's wounds, King Rong asked Gu Yang to send someone to investigate, and learned that it was an accident, not on purpose, otherwise he would have to turn Pei Guohou's Mansion upside down.
The night is low, the stars are everywhere, and the lights are bright.
In the Jiyang Hall of the East Palace, the crown prince Xiao Yichen was lying at the desk to deal with official business, while Xiao Feng was pacing back and forth from time to time, frowning, as if he was thinking about something.
I wanted to report to His Highness, but I saw that His Highness was seriously handling official business, so Xiao Feng was entangled.
On the one hand, His Highness had previously instructed him to pay attention to the message of the county lord, and he didn't know if he needed it now; On the other hand, His Royal Highness has been busy with Xuanyiwei's official business recently, and now the master is dealing with it, should he bother.
Before Xiao Feng could figure out the result, he didn't know when the person at the table stopped dealing with official business, frowned, and glanced at Xiao Feng, who had been pacing back and forth, very majestically.
At that moment, Xiao Feng felt that there was an extremely cold gaze sweeping by, and his whole body was cold, there was no doubt that it must be his own master, and suddenly Xiao Feng stopped and glanced at His Highness stiffly.
"What?" The young man spoke indifferently, and his eyes were very majestic. As if to say: you'd better have a reasonable reason, otherwise!
Xiao Feng, who is well versed in His Highness's temperament, looked like he was open-minded, "Your Highness, Miss Pei San was riding on the street today, and the county lord saved the son of Qin County Shou, but his wrist was injured. ”
"What do you say? Say it again?"
"The county lord is injured." As soon as the words fell, Xiao Feng suddenly felt a chill all over his body, full of oppression.
"Take the punishment yourself! Hum! After coldly dropping this sentence, Xiao Feng disappeared from his Royal Highness.
……
"It's dry, watch out for the candles!"
"It's dry, watch out for the candles!"
The night is as cool as water, and the watchmen on the streets of the capital at night are walking diligently, holding a gong in their hands from time to time to look twice, and suddenly a figure flashes quickly, in the eyes of the watchmen, I feel that there seems to be a black wind blowing just now.
"Shhh It's cold again. Feeling a chill in his back, he sighed, raised his courage, and continued to walk forward.
……
In the Rongwang Mansion, Xiao Yichen directly carried the light work to Jingxi's bedroom, and the candlelight shined through the window paper, reflecting the bright moonlight.
Because he had just finished bathing, the gauze on Jing Xi's wrist had already been removed, he rolled up his wide sleeves and put his right hand on the soft couch, Jing Xi was a little drowsy, and when he heard the footsteps, Jing Xi didn't think much about it, just thought it was Xinliu coming.
The young man walked to the soft couch, looked at the wound, and did not speak, but took the snow cream he had brought, picked some of it, and gently applied it to the wound.
A faint coolness hit, Jing Xi noticed that the person around him was not Xinliu, and suddenly opened his eyes and was shocked.
"Brother Chen, why are you? I thought it was Shinyanagi. Jing Xi said, he was about to get up, wearing only a thin silk shirt, and Jing Xi didn't feel cold.
"Does it hurt?" The boy didn't reply to her, but asked to himself.
Seeing that the little girl was about to get up with only her underwear, the young man said, "Don't get up, it's cold." The boy pushed the man back, reached out and tugged at the quilt, and carefully tucked her on, taking great care that he did not touch the wound.
"Minor injury, no pain. It will be fine in a few days. Jingxi was covered in the quilt, leaving only a small hairy head outside, under the warm yellow light, the little girl looked at him brightly, and the sweet and glutinous voice instantly reached his heart.
"How can you be so careless?" The young man had reproach in his tone, what did the lives of others have to do with her, in his eyes, her safety was greater than everything.
He saw the wound just now, although it did not hurt the muscles and bones, but it was scratched, a little hideous, the little girl's porcelain white and smooth arm could not leave a scar, it was he who hurriedly took the holy medicine snow gel ointment to heal the wound and remove the scar. completely forgot about Jing Xi's medical skills, and it is not too simple to remove scars or something.
"Brother Chen, I'm fine, don't worry." Jing Xi obediently trapped himself in the warm quilt and talked to the boy like this.
