Chapter 379: Scare

"What do mothers need to dress up! On the contrary, it is you, in the mood for love, but you have to dress well. Zhu looked at his daughter dotingly.

My mother is less than thirty years old, and she is still beautiful and moving, and it is the most beautiful time. Liu Ruli pouted at Zhu Shi and said.

The mother and daughter talked and laughed, as if they had returned to when Liu Mengyan was young.

After Liu Ruli got out of Fangheng Courtyard, she went all the way to Rongde Hall.

In the early summer of April, all kinds of plants and trees are more and more verdant, and the beautiful flowers are blooming with smiling faces, and the small garden in front of Rongdetang is full of beautiful scenery.

A warm breeze blows in your face, mixed with a chaotic aroma. The sun hung brightly in the sky, red as fire. When the sun fell, it looked like broken gold, and was mottled and sparse by the lush branches.

The old lady of the long room finally got better, except for losing some weight and not feeling as good as in the past, and suffering a little, it was nothing.

After Liu Ruli entered, the old lady didn't dare to slack off, after all, she was the prince's concubine, and the old lady had to salute her.

"The old lady is in good spirits!" Liu Mengyan is supple and authentic. Although she minded that the old lady in the long room had never supported the Zhu family, but in the end, it was her ancestor, as long as the old lady did not interfere in her own affairs, she would not have a stiff relationship with the old lady.

"Hehe, Sister Li'er, your aunt and grandmother are here. Grandmother went to call her, and you can see her too? The old lady of the long room smiled, but she was a little worried that Liu Mengyan didn't come over to greet her yesterday.

Liu Ruli smiled and nodded, then took out a bracelet from her sleeve, handed it to the old lady and said, "Old lady, this is a bracelet made of the core stone, which can activate the blood veins, and can be worn on the hand all year round to warm up." ”

The old lady of the long room looked at it and saw that Liu Ruli was also wearing a string on her wrist, so she took it and rubbed it carefully.

"Sure enough, there is some warmth!" The old lady of the long room smiled and said with a smile in her heart.

"Ouch, this is my eldest niece!" A slightly complimentary voice came in from outside, and a lady wearing a brick-red cardigan skirt, a bun on her head, and silver tasseled hairpins on either side walked in.

I saw that her face was similar to that of the old lady in the long house, and her figure was slightly rich, looking like she was in her forties.

"Min'er, come here, this is your third brother's eldest daughter, the sixth princess!" The old lady hurriedly beckoned and motioned for Liu Min to sit beside her.

Liu Mengyan saw her snorting and walked to the old lady and sat down, and she didn't salute herself, and she didn't get up, but nodded slightly towards the eldest aunt.

"Ouch, this is the third child's daughter, she looks so good. No wonder he was able to marry the six princes of the dynasty. Liu Min looked Liu Ruli up and down and praised her.

"She is a smart child, and it is also her blessing to be able to enter the eyes of the six princes." The old lady of the long room said.

"Niece, when you were a child, your aunt and grandmother saw you. I've been a beauty since I was a child, isn't it, mother? "My aunt and grandmother are very flattering.

"Yan'er, when you were just born, Min'er came back. He who has traveled thousands of miles has made you three clothes. The old lady of the long room said.

"Thank you so much, auntie! Yan'er was young at the time, so I don't remember. Liu Mengyan replied lightly.

She knew that she was afraid that today's eldest aunt, whom she had not met for a long time, was going to talk to herself and find a relationship for her young son.

"Hehe, that's too. You were too young then. It's normal not to remember. However, the eldest aunt also exchanged letters with her mother. In the letter, my mother told me everything about your situation. Liu Min was not embarrassed at all.

"Sister Li'er, in fact, your eldest aunt is really a little bit of a problem when she comes this time. You just happened to be back, otherwise Grandmother would have to ask someone to deliver the letter to King Yi's Mansion. The old lady of the long room suddenly opened her mouth.

Liu Mengyan looked calm, but still asked, "What's the matter with grandmother?" ”

"Hey, it's not for Tao'er's business! Sister Li, your cousin Dong Tao is here and lives in the house. He came to participate in this year's Spring Festival. The eldest aunt said.

"Oh. Did my cousin do well in the exam? Yan'er and King Yi have been away from Beijing for more than a month, and they happen to be away. Liu Ruli said.

The eldest aunt and grandmother looked at the old lady in the long room embarrassedly.

"Tao'er did something not very honorable." The old lady of the long room said, but there was no embarrassed look on her face.

Liu Ruli didn't ask, but sat and waited for the old lady to say it herself.

The eldest aunt and grandmother were embarrassed when they saw it, and hurriedly said, "It's all Tao'er confused." Sister Li'er, your cousin was caught in the examination room. To be disqualified for three years. ”

Liu Mengyan pretended to be surprised and looked at her aunt and grandmother, and then went to see the old lady in the long room, and responded: "My cousin was confused for a while, and in the future, I will eat and see Chang Yizhi!" ”

The eldest aunt and grandmother said this to Liu Mengyan, and hurriedly looked at the old lady in the long room.

"Sister Li'er, your cousin is not young, if it is delayed for another three years, I am afraid that it will affect his family affairs. He had already made a marriage with the daughter of the local garrison. If this matter is passed back, I am afraid that people will withdraw from the marriage. The old lady of the long room said.

"That's right, eldest niece, if it weren't really difficult, my aunt wouldn't have come all the way to find your grandmother." As she spoke, the aunt and grandmother picked up her handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes.

"I wonder what grandmother wants to do with my cousin?" Liu Mengyan had no choice but to ask.

"The old student wants your second uncle to walk around. And can His Royal Highness King Yi help dredge up? The old lady of the long room said.

Liu Mengyan thought for a while and said, "Old lady, this time in the matter of Chunqiu, His Royal Highness said that the emperor attaches great importance to the leakage of exam questions. Lost his temper above the court. ”

When the eldest aunt and grandmother heard this, they suddenly seemed to be deflated, and couldn't help muttering to themselves: "Then Tao'er, there is no room for maneuver?" ”

"Listening to His Royal Highness's tone, the emperor also wants to hold the cheating candidates accountable. It's not just the disqualification for a three-year scientific expedition. Liu Mengyan said simply.

"Huh?" When the aunt and grandmother heard this, their eyelids immediately jumped.

The old lady's face also stiffened, and she said in disbelief: "Sister Li'er, is this serious?" ”

"Why don't you come back to the second uncle, you can ask the second uncle. Yan'er thinks it's better to let her cousin return to her hometown earlier. If you stay in the capital, if the emperor has to arrest the candidates who violate the legal calendar one day, then if you want to leave, you won't be able to leave. Liu Mengyan said.

"Mother, mother, then Min'er should take Tao'er back." The aunt and grandmother immediately panicked.

"Don't panic! Panic what! "The old lady of the long house has experienced a lot of things, and these words are not enough to scare her.

"Grandmother, aunt, Shu Yan'er doesn't want to be with me. His Royal Highness said that he would come to pick up Yan'er. Seeing this, Liu Mengyan got up and said.

The old lady of the long room didn't have the heart to say anything more at the moment, so she had to nod to her.

Out of Rongde Hall, Liu Mengyan sighed.

"Princess, when did Your Highness say such a thing?" Bitong whispered on the side.

"If you don't scare them, how can you get out?" Liu Ruli said.

"The princess is really scaring the old lady?" Bitong grinned.

"It's not all scare. That's exactly what Your Highness meant. Someone leaked the question, and the emperor said that he would really investigate this matter if he didn't move. So aren't they, the candidates who buy the answers, going to jail? Liu Mengyan said.

"The slave and maid looked at the appearance of the eldest aunt and grandmother, and they were so frightened that they wanted to leave immediately." Bitong Road.

"At this time, I can't provoke such a right and wrong for His Highness. Dad is right, don't just care about this kind of thing. Liu Mengyan said.

They returned to Fangheng Courtyard, and after Liu Mengyan and Zhu talked for a while, sure enough, there was news from the gatehouse that King Yi had come to pick up.

"Your Highness won't come in and sit down?" Zhu was a little apprehensive.

"Mother, if he doesn't come in, he won't come in. I'm just afraid of trouble! Mother, take good care of your body, and wait for me to pick you up. Liu Mengyan said, and was about to leave the house.

Zhu sent it all the way to the door of the weeping flower, but Liu Ruli didn't let her send it.

When he got out of the gate of Liufu, he saw Tuoba Zeyan's carriage parked at the door, and he should be sitting inside.

Liu Mengyan walked over, opened the curtain, and sure enough, she saw him sitting inside, in a white robe, so handsome that people were jealous.

"Your Highness is really, and you won't go in to have a look?" Liu Mengyan pretended to be displeased.

"The princess is really bad. Didn't you let the main hall go in and worship your mother-in-law? Tuoba Zeyan stretched out his hand, pulled her up, and hugged her into his arms.

"When I came back this time, I almost caused trouble for His Highness." Liu Mengyan said, and then told Tuoba Zeyan about Dong Tao.

"The princess is witty. This must not be done. That's what my father did. Tuoba Zeyan looked at the person in his arms and said, "The princess is so smart that the palace is happy." ”

"It's all women, and it's virtue if they don't have talent. The concubine is too smart, will His Highness feel pressured? Liu Ruli squinted at Tuoba Zeyan and said.

"Why, it's too late for the main hall to rejoice." Tuoba Zeyan leaned close to her forehead and kissed her gently.

"Your Highness has something on your mind?" Liu Mengyan was keenly aware.

"Hmm. Yesterday my father gave me an errand for my palace. It's a thankless task again. Tuoba Ze said, "The main hall didn't tell you yesterday. ”

"Let the concubine guess, is it the emperor who asked you to investigate the leak?" Liu Mengyan said.

"Yan'er is really a roundworm in the stomach of this temple! You can guess anything! Tuoba Ze said.

"The concubine body is not a worm! It's just that the concubine thinks that the emperor can only hand over this matter to a person who is not involved with any party. Except for His Highness, there is no one else. Liu Mengyan said.

"The people who participated in the chief examiner in this matter are not only the prince's people, but also the people who became kings, and the people who are virtuous kings. The main hall is going to offend the three parties! Tuoba Ze said.

"Your Highness is afraid?" Liu Ruli said.

"The main hall just doesn't want to expose the ambitions of the main hall so quickly!" Tuoba Zeyan curled her chin and said.

"Your Highness is on an errand ordered by the emperor. Don't worry too much. Liu Mengyan said.

Tuoba Zeyan nodded, and the two snuggled up to each other all the way back to King Yi's mansion.
