Chapter 117: Winter Hunting Plan
After dealing with the matter of the eldest princess, the Duchess only felt exhausted.
"I originally thought that no matter how crazy she became, she wouldn't be so cruel to you now."
"I don't think it's her handiwork."
Across the desk, Wei Qingqing sat steadily opposite the Duchess of the Kingdom, holding the confession that Xiaoqin and the maid couldn't match at all, and said.
Duchess Guo frowned, carefully looked at the confession handed over by Wei Qingqing, and said, "I will let people continue to investigate." ”
"I know who it is."
Wei Qingqing lowered her eyes lightly: "She is the only one who has such means." ”
The Duchess immediately knew who she was referring to, and her already cold face condensed a layer of frost: "Leave it to me to deal with." ”
Wei Qingqing knew that she didn't want the eldest princess to know about it, after all, the eldest princess had already promised to leave the Guogong Mansion, if she knew that she was used by Wei Susu, with her strong character, she would definitely not spare Wei Susu, and she would have more excuses to stay.
However, the eldest princess directly admitted this matter without saying a word today, which can only show that even if there is no Wei Susu, today's fire will definitely burn.
The Duchess also understood, so she didn't protect the eldest princess much: "I will let her leave early tomorrow morning, and you will have a good rest tonight." ”
"Mother walks slowly."
Wei Qingqing obediently got up and saluted.
Seeing that she was not noisy, the Duchess only felt more pity in her heart, patted her hand comfortingly, and then left.
However, as soon as the Duchess left, Lan Zhi was dissatisfied: "Everyone should know that the eldest princess has this face, and see if she can raise her head in the future!" ”
"Isn't that playing into the hands of the enemy?" Wei Qingqing slowly rubbed the blood jade that Rong Che had left her in her hand. The blood jade was warm, as if Rong Che was beside him.
"But ......"
Lan Zhi wanted to say more, but was finally pressed by Lan Sheng's eyes.
Because of this fire, Wei Qingqing became a 'life and death', so the eyes staring at her in the capital gradually decreased, not to mention the turbulent undercurrent among the princes now.
It was Wei Susu, who was also distracted by another incident.
"The emperor has already arrived in the capital?"
Looking at the third prince who had just come back from outside, the thin snow was still pressing on his shoulders and he didn't have time to clean it up, so it could be seen that he had just entered the mansion. I came straight to her.
"Just arrived. I'm about to enter the palace in a while, and as soon as I entered the mansion, I thought about coming to see you. ”
The third prince looked at the girl in front of her, twenty-eight years old, her eyebrows and eyes were pure, and the blue flowing cloud dress she was wearing set off her skin better than snow, beautiful like a fairy in the heavenly palace.
Facing the deep affection in the eyes of the third prince, Wei Susu only had a sneer in his heart, and his face was not half visible, he gently stepped forward to dust the snow on his shoulders for him, and smiled: "Then Your Highness, hurry up, don't miss the hour." ”
Looking at Wei Susu's lowered eyebrows, the thick eyelashes covering the brilliance of her eyes, the third prince knew that there must be ruthlessness in those eyes, but, so what?
It's good that she's by his side.
The third prince hugged Wei Susu, imprinted a kiss on her forehead, and gently asked her to go to the back room to rest. Then he turned around and went out the door.
As soon as he went out, the third prince saw the third princess who came over in a hurry.
The third princess showed a little smile on her sickly pale face, and she could see that there was loss and expectation in her eyes, and the third prince remembered the time when she was once a husband and wife, and her tone softened a little: "You are still pregnant with a child, don't go out on such a day." ”
When the third princess heard this concern, she was speechless with joy, but the next moment, she heard the third prince say: "Moreover, Su Su doesn't like outsiders to come to her yard." ”
The third princess was like a withered leaf in winter, her body shook, and she almost fell to the ground: "The concubine knows ......"
Before he finished speaking, the third prince had already pursed his lips and left indifferently.
From a distance, Wei Susu saw this scene through the window, and the corners of her mouth hooked: "Men are so thin and cold, no matter what, watching her suffer in this world, it is better to ascend to Bliss as soon as possible, save her heartbreak and die." ”
"You mean, leaking that news to her?" Bixue asked.
As soon as Wei Susu's eyelids lifted, Bi Xue immediately understood what she meant, and only glanced at the back of the crumbling departing with a little pity, and went to do it.
"Is that true?"
The Four Princes' Mansion, the Four Princes looked at the news brought back by Yang Daxian, and were shocked and angry.
"Naturally, this is what the third princess said herself, saying that on the day of the winter hunt, the six princes will start with the crown prince, and they have decided to take your life as a bargaining chip." Sheep Daxian Road.
"Even the sixth child ......" The fourth prince clenched his back molars, grabbed the teacup with his hand, and his bones appeared: "Okay, great, I want to see who lives and who dies at that time!" ”
After speaking, the four princes remembered Rong Ruizhang's words before, and looked at Yang Daxian again and couldn't help but have a little doubt, especially since this news actually came from the mouth of the third princess.
So saying, he sent him down.
However, Yang Daxian didn't think so much at the moment, he was bent on making meritorious service in front of the four princes to suppress Rong Ruizhang, and at this moment, he was only thinking about how to make meritorious contributions to the upcoming winter hunt, and he didn't notice anything wrong with the four princes.
Soon, on the day when the heavy snow covered the capital, Wei Qingqing also got a gilded invitation from the palace.
Zhu Zhu sat beside her and pulled up the woman's bun.
Just a few days ago, she was married to Wei Xun.
There was no grand wedding, and now the capital is surging, and the Wei family has just experienced prison, and the Zhu family also intends to form this family affair as soon as possible, so after picking an auspicious day, they hurriedly handled the marriage.
However, Zhu Zhu didn't mind, but was very happy, because she knew that Wei Xun was willing to do this marriage.
And coming to see Wei Qingqing today is also Wei Xun's meaning.
The husband said. This winter hunt, the emperor not only sent a post to the Guogong Mansion, but also received the names in the capital. Zhu Zhu lowered his voice, found that his lips were trembling a little, and took another sip of tea to suppress it, before continuing: "Husband said that these people seem to be involved in the prince's party dispute, but those who have been neutral from beginning to end have no posts. ”
Wei Qingqing understood what Wei Xun meant, and the emperor's move obviously knew that something would happen in this winter hunt.
But Wei Qingqing didn't understand, since he knew, what did he mean by asking the supporters of these princes to go up the mountain together?
"Qingqing, don't worry, my mother and I will also go up the mountain this time, and my father still has the emperor's trust in the end." Zhu Zhu opened his mouth to comfort.
Wei Qingqing knew that with the Zhu University Scholar here, what the emperor wanted to do to the Guogong Mansion, he would also consider the pen of this bachelor who was full of peach and plums, and he would have some scruples.
But Wei Qingqing didn't believe in this very much, faintly, Wei Qingqing always felt that the emperor's move was not simple.
Moreover, this time the emperor has returned from the southwest, why hasn't Rong Che, who is a personal guard, seen any news?
It's so perverse.
There is still no news from the Seven Star Pavilion, but there are already a lot of rumors in Beijing. Some say that Rong Che was left in the southwest to be entrusted with important tasks, but more often than not, it is said that Rong Che was secretly linked to the White Tiger Army, so he had already been secretly executed by the emperor.
The White Tiger Army is brave and good at fighting, but it has always been a problem for the emperor, and everyone knows this, but no one says it.
No matter how it was rumored outside, Wei Qingqing never showed up again until the night before the winter hunting day.
Lan Sheng had just blown out the candle and went out, and as soon as the door was closed, the window was blown open by a gust of wind.
Wei Qingqing vigilantly clenched the dagger under the pillow, but the next moment he was swept into a slightly cool embrace, and the familiar clear voice also came from his ears.
"Qingqing, have you ever missed me?"
Wei Qingqing's hand moved, and when he looked up, he met the eyes that were still dyed with a slight snow light in the dark.
"Second Master ......"
Before he finished speaking, the familiar aroma suddenly approached, and in the next second, the softness came over.
Wei Qingqing felt the real Rong Che in front of her, and thousands of emotions instantly surged up in her heart.
At first, I only felt that Rong Che was a good chess piece to take revenge on Rong Ruizhang, and then I thought that it was okay to live with this person for the rest of my life, and it was not until now that Wei Qingqing deeply realized that he had to be in this life!
After the heat, the placket peels off. A slightly cool touch came, and Wei Qingqing opened her eyes suddenly: "Second master, I'll ...... the beautiful book."
"I know."
Rong Che's tone couldn't hide the joy, and his hand also fell on her slightly bulging lower abdomen: "There is our child here." ”
Rong Che looked at Wei Qingqing, and vaguely, he seemed to see her blushing.
But, how is that possible?
Rong Che sighed slightly in his heart, in fact, he had always understood that she still had a mustard in her heart, she still didn't let go of the past, and she couldn't fully accept herself.
She is perfect as the young lady of the Guogong Mansion, so perfect that she is not like Wei Qingqing, who used to be the vinegar who would Rong Ruizhang from time to time, and who would have her own petty temperament.
But after thinking about it, Rong Che hugged her and lay down, kissing her lightly on the forehead, and then Rong Che said softly: "Along the way, I heard a lot about the capital. ”
Wei Qingqing sniffed the clean and slightly cool fragrance on his body. Knowing that he had not been injured, a heart also fell, and he snuggled up to his chest with peace of mind: "Did the second master hear about tomorrow's winter hunting?" ”
At the mention of winter hunting, Rong Che's clear eyes instantly glowed with coldness: "I'm afraid I have to leave a few lives this time." After that, his tone became soft again: "Tomorrow, you find an excuse to stay at home, and your mother will go up the mountain, and I will take care of me on the mountain." ”
Wei Qingqing wanted to refuse, but thought that the eldest princess would inevitably go up the mountain tomorrow, so she paused and nodded in response.
With the eldest brother here, Rong Che is also back, even if there is anything between the princes, it should not affect the Duchess of the Kingdom.
"Since they're all going up the mountain tomorrow, I have one more thing to do."
Wei Qingqing has been thinking about this for a long time, but there are too many eyes staring at her in the capital, so she has been unable to leave, and she does not dare to rashly summon Liu Quanfu into the mansion.
Rong Che knew that she had always had her own ideas and ideas, and she didn't stop her.
"I'll call someone to follow you tomorrow." Rong Che thought for a moment and said.
Wei Qingqing knew that he was not at ease, and Guo Qing was still unconscious, so he didn't think much about it and responded directly.
The two talked until late at night, Wei Qingqing mentioned Ah Zhan's matter, and saw that Rong Che seemed to have noticed Ah Zhan's disappearance, but before Ah Zhan's whereabouts, he knew that Ah Zhan had really had an accident.
However, this matter is to be investigated thoroughly. Wei Qingqing is about to start carefully preparing for tomorrow's plan.
It wasn't until the next day that I found out who Rong Che had arranged for her.
Wei Qingqing looked at the man in front of him who looked ordinary but had a strong aura of 'don't beat Lao Tzu' all over his body, the corners of Wei Qingqing's mouth twitched, and Lan Zhi was already ready to meet the enemy.
Lan Sheng looked at this man, his face changed several times, and then he stepped forward and said beside Wei Qingqing: "Miss, if the slave maid remembers correctly, this should be Leng Yin, the deputy pavilion master of the Seven Star Pavilion." ”
The fact that the Seven Star Pavilion is a well-known killer and intelligence organization in the rivers and lakes, Wei Qingqing has already been popularized many times by Lan Zhi in detail after taking out the waist card of the Seven Star Pavilion.
Wei Qingqing looked at the tall but young man in front of him. At a young age, he achieved the position of deputy cabinet master, and you can imagine his means.
seemed to sense what Wei Qingqing was thinking, and the corners of Leng Yin's slender eyes were raised, and they actually looked a little good.
However, he has never said much, and he hates the boudoir women who do not go out of the door and do not step forward to guard the rules and regulations of the three obedience and four virtues, especially beautiful, and serve people in Israel!
"If the young lady doesn't look down on the bottom, why don't you talk to your man and change the bottom."
The cold voice was obviously mixed with disgust, and Lan Zhi was irritable when he heard it.
Wei Qingqing smiled: "Your Excellency doesn't look down on me, right?" Since we don't look down on each other. That's okay, you should complete the task, and I won't sue you. ”
Leng Yin's throat choked, she could see that she didn't like her? Isn't she angry, a woman of their age is so good-looking, she should care a lot about the eyes of men.
Leng Yin looked at the woman in front of him who was not only angry, but also smiling, and suddenly appeared in his mind the appearance of seeing Rong Che for the first time, wearing a silver-gray robe, a white jade pendant on his waist, a jade crown with black hair, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, leaning obliquely against the pillar, looking like a gentleman.
But who would have thought that the gentleman would actually take on the Seven Star Pavilion alone and make a fuss?
Such a person, do you think he can marry a vase with a board and an eye to go home?
Thinking of this, Leng Yin's face darkened by three points, and the atmosphere of 'Don't suffer Lao Tzu' around him became stronger.
At this time, the people in the capital who got the bronzing posts have already left the city one after another to go to the forest of winter hunting.
Before going out, Wei Susu wore a blue long skirt, dressed in a snow-white fox fur that was newly paid tribute this year, and stood beside the third prince with a thin white neck, and asked the third princess: "Is the princess really not going, you should have gone to this winter hunt today." ”
The third princess glanced at the frowning third prince, endured the sourness in her heart, and shook her head: "I'm sick and unwell, but I'm bothering my sister to go this trip for me." ”
Wei Susu's mouth was imperceptible with coldness, and the third princess watched the third prince gently and considerately help Wei Susu into the carriage, and the smile on her face completely fell.
Such a scheming woman must not stay with His Highness!
didn't know that the moment the third princess turned around, Wei Susu's eyes also fell on her through the car window, with a little pity from above.
When Bi Xue accidentally saw her master's gaze, she couldn't help but shudder, that was the gaze that only came when she looked at the dead.
After Wei Qingqing left the house, he put on a veil hat strictly. Although she is extremely low-key and cautious when going out today, she still has to be careful.
"Solved."
The three words of Gao Leng popped out of Leng Yin's mouth, and Wei Qingqing understood that there were no extra eyes around him staring at him.
After Liu Quanfu got into Wei Qingqing's carriage, he followed her around the capital, all the way along the root of the city wall, Liu Quanfu was a little puzzled, Wei Qingqing said: "I want to dig another wine cellar, it is best to dig it in the next month." ”
Liu Quanfu is not stupid, thinking of the recent form in the capital, he instantly understood what Wei Qingqing wanted to do.
"How many shops do we have?" Wei Qingqing saw that he understood and asked him.
Liu Quanfu knew Wei Qingqing's purpose, his brain came to life, and he counted Wei Qingqing's shops in detail: "Among them, only the small ones know about the shops, in Jiangling, thousands of miles away, there are twelve, take the waterway from the capital, if it goes well, you can reach it in half a month." And most of the state capitals along the way are prosperous, and there are many caravans. "If you want to go out of Beijing, it is the least easy to be noticed when you are mixed in.
Liu Quanfu has always been proper and careful, which is why Wei Qingqing has trusted him so much for so many years and dared to hand over all his business to him.
But Helian Zifeng secretly discovered Liu Quanfu, Wei Qingqing is not at the bottom, Helian Zifeng is very familiar with Liu Quanfu's style of doing things.
However, Helian Zifeng seems to have not appeared for a long time, and the secret of Zhufu ......
Wei Qingqing thought about it, while choosing a shop, and finally settled on a not far from the south city gate, which is not far from Yuqian Lane, and because the south gate is far away from the palace, the guards are not as strict as the other three gates.
Next, Liu Quanfu arranged to use another identity to set up the shop, and arranged for someone trustworthy to dig it up.
After arranging here, Wei Qingqing couldn't help but look up at the sky.
The snow was heavy, and the thick dark clouds in the sky were piled up, as if they were sinking to the point of suppression.
On the mountain, it should begin.
In the dense forest, a cold arrow pierced out, and blood was immediately seen.
The cheers sounded, and I saw that in the dense forest covered with snow, the prince riding a tall horse had just put away his bow and looked proud: "Take this deer back and serve a cup of fresh deer blood to my father!" ”
The sons of the family who followed around were even more praised, and the prince who was patting the sycophants was very comfortable.
But the prince did not forget his business, especially after seeing a green shadow passing in front of him.
"There is also a deer in front, this palace is going to hunt it, so that I can bring it back and present it to the imperial grandmother!"
After the prince finished speaking, he glanced back at the sons who were about to follow, and smiled: "You are waiting here." ”
Everyone just didn't want to run around in this ice and snow, and after a few hypocritical words, they immediately responded.
The prince's horse flew in a certain direction like an arrow from a string, followed only by a few of his guards.
As soon as the prince left, the princes of the family were still discussing whether to make a fire to keep warm, and they saw that the sixth prince, Qin Liangye, actually came on horse.
"Your Highness Six."
The crowd saluted.
Qin Liangye responded lightly, looked around, and asked them, "Rong Xiang is not there?" ”
Without waiting for everyone to answer, someone immediately said, "I just saw Rong Xiang go in that direction." ”
Qin Liangye's slightly cool eyes glanced at the person who spoke, and seemed to understand something, but without saying a word, he hooked the corners of his lips and rode a horse to follow.
