Chapter 22: Revenge
"Sister, don't worry, it's a mistake. Murong Luoluo is waiting for you in the garden of Murong family, I am afraid that not only Murong Luoluo, but also a few good daughters will be indispensable for her. Chu Jiangliu hurriedly grabbed Liu Mengyan, who was about to go the wrong way.
Liu Mengyan turned around and slapped Chu Jiangliu on the back of the head, blaming this kid!
This Murong Mansion is the main family of the Murong family, the whole one is too big, and the garden is more than a little bigger than the Zuo Xiangfu, as soon as I stepped into the garden, I heard the laughter and laughter that resounded throughout the garden.
"Miss Murong Qi, I didn't know that there was a beautiful woman like you hidden in this Kyoto city before, it's a pity that I didn't know you earlier."
"Luoluo has been quiet since she was a child, never public, most of the time she is in the house, and she rarely talks to people when she goes out, so you naturally have no chance to know her."
"Talent and appearance, this word clearly exists exclusively for Miss Murong Qi."
The reason why Murong Luoluo didn't have a reputation before was because her status in the Murong family was not high, and she had never done anything eye-catching.
To say that Murong Luoluo, who was not favored before, is completely different from Liu Mengyan, who has a bad reputation. Murong Luoluo is not favored and is still the daughter of the Murong family, once she begins to show her edge, there is no place to be picked on her body.
And even if her Liu Mengyan has changed her temperament overnight and is talented, those stains in the past make it difficult for the world to change her opinion immediately.
Therefore, the record of just one "scholar of the tongue battle group" made Murong Luoluo receive the compliments of so many sons and daughters. “
Today, the garden of the Murong family is very lively, not only some daughters who are close to the Murong family, but also many sons and brothers who come uninvited.
They all heard that Murong Luoluo was going to compete with Liu Mengyan and came to see the excitement.
Although a lot of time has passed since Liu Mengyan's temperament has changed, people are still full of disbelief about her change, and they are still full of curiosity to see her in person.
Therefore, today's Murong Family Garden can be so lively, half of the credit goes to Murong Luoluo, and half of the credit goes to Liu Mengyan.
To some extent, her appeal is really amazing, and there are always people who want to see her unlucky. Liu Mengyan looked around at the young ladies with different looks in the garden, and they all looked at her who had just stepped into the garden.
As for Chu Jiangliu and Chu Mo, who came with her, they were basically ignored, and compared to her Liu Mengyan, there was nothing strange about the two of them.
"Miss Chu, you're finally here." Murong Luoluo showed a happy look on his face and greeted Liu Mengyan.
It was not the first time Liu Mengyan had dealt with Murong Luoluo, and she was about to talk about Murong Luoluo grabbing her and saying that she had secretly hidden something from the imperial study, but she didn't expect Murong Luoluo to speak before her.
"Miss Chu, last time I doubted you indiscriminately, after you left, I have been regretting it, and now I finally have a chance to apologize, I wonder if Miss Chu is willing to forgive me?" Murong Luoluo opened his mouth and said.
Shu Zhaoyi, Li Yuanyuan and Murong Luoluo joined forces to frame her, and what was hidden in the sachet that was forced into her was the map of the palace, although the map of the palace was not easy to leak, but this must not be what the old emperor sent someone to find that day. But if she finds this thing from her, the suspicion will definitely fall on her head.
"This is the second time that Miss Murong Qi has apologized to me. As soon as I apologized last time, I suspected that I was a traitor, and I hope this time it won't be the same as this time, apologizing and framing me again. How can there be such a good thing in the world, if you do something sorry for people, you can easily expose it with an apology! Liu Mengyan can almost imagine what tricks Murong Luoluo will play if she wins this time.
Murong Luoluo is naturally complacent if she wins, if she loses, she will definitely pretend to be bullied by her, her rank is one level higher than Li Yuanyuan, and she can't use any conspiracy and tricks.
But next time, she won't give Murong Luoluo a chance to speak first.
"I sincerely apologize, otherwise what does Miss Chu want me to do to forgive me?" Murong Luoluo showed an aggrieved look just right, as if he had been bullied by Liu Mengyan.
Everyone originally heard Liu Mengyan's tone domineering, but when they saw Murong Luoluo's appearance, their hearts immediately leaned towards Murong Luoluo. Most of the young ladies here have no friendship with Liu Mengyan, and they haven't even said a word, where will they consider it from Liu Mengyan's standpoint.
"Miss Murong Qi, I don't like the way you speak. I didn't say I wouldn't forgive you, but you made a look like I didn't forgive you and I bullied you, the dirty water wasn't so messy! Liu Mengyan didn't bother to deal with Murong Luoluo, she rarely saw the sympathetic eyes of these young ladies and young men, but she Liu Mengyan didn't care.
"It's really vicious, saying that he is apologizing, but he is actually framing people." Chu Mo's voice sounded at this time, the seven-year-old child's voice was very crisp, and to people who didn't know Chu Mo's essence, it sounded more like a child's words.
Murong Luoluo's expression stiffened slightly, Liu Mengyan said that she could turn Liu Mengyan's words into bullying her, but seven-year-old Chu Mo couldn't repeat her old tricks.
"Little brother, how can I talk nonsense like this, how can I slander Miss Chu." Murong Luoluo immediately explained.
"Don't talk nonsense, don't you want to compete?" Liu Mengyan interrupted impatiently, "A competition without a bet is boring in comparison. You lost my cousin at the beginning, if I win you today, how about you go to the Taishi's Mansion and kneel down and beg my sixth cousin and eldest aunt for forgiveness? ”
This kind of bet is really cheap Qiao Gusi, she didn't want anything from Murong Luoluo, but she had a grudge against Murong Luoluo in her heart, and it was rare to have a chance to make Murong Luoluo ugly, so she couldn't let it go easily.
"Miss Chu is really narrow-minded, and she actually put forward such a condition."
"The talent competition is such an elegant thing, but when it comes to Miss Chu, it is actually made like this."
"Sure enough, it is easy to change her nature, and her face has become good, but in fact, it is the gold and jade that are ruined on the outside."
As soon as he heard Liu Mengyan's request, Murong Luoluo didn't say anything, and a few sons and brothers who favored Murong Luoluo started to talk about it, and they didn't mean to lower their voices at all, but they just wanted to tell Liu Mengyan to listen to it.
"You are so anxious to fight for Miss Murong, don't you think she will definitely lose to me? Why don't you shut your mouths first and listen to Miss Murong's conditions for me? Liu Mengyan swept over the men who had spoken out for Murong Luo, and the smile on her face was a little penetrating.
In the past two days, Liu Mengyan has been very busy, and she was dragged to Murong Mansion to see Murong Luoluo, who was in a bad mood. It just so happened that these two lovers hit the muzzle of the gun, and she really wanted to take out her anger at these people one by one.
It's a pity that today's comparison is lip service, if it is directly better than fists.
Liu Mengyan asked Murong Luoluo to put forward conditions, but there were these sons and brothers who stirred up the situation before, claiming that Liu Mengyan was narrow-minded when he put forward the conditions, and Murong Luoluo wanted to maintain his image, so he must not make excessive demands on Liu Mengyan.
Murong Luoluo, who wanted to vent her anger on Liu Mengyan, was also a little dissatisfied in her heart, but in fact, she wanted to turn the result of this competition into a bargaining chip to make things difficult for the other party more than Liu Mengyan.
"If Miss Chu loses, please stay away from His Royal Highness King Jin. You are the one who wants to become the Sixth Imperial Concubine, please let His Royal Highness King Jin go. Murong Luoluo saw Liu Mengyan as the biggest obstacle to marrying Jin Ruyu, so he would say such things in public.
Everyone who heard Murong Luoluo's words was shocked, for so many years, they had never heard of King Jin getting close to any woman, and there were many women who wanted to marry King Jin, but who could get into King Jin's eyes.
This is the first time that a woman is so close to King Jin, this person is Murong Luoluo, and there is also a Liu Mengyan who shamelessly sticks to King Jin - this is the idea that everyone had after listening to Murong Luo.
Liu Mengyan chuckled, she had never approached Jin Ruyu, and Murong Luoluo didn't know this, she said this purely to misunderstand these people on the side.
There is a kind of person who likes to exert his verbal skills in crowded places, such as Murong Luoluo, who can turn everyone who hears her speech into her own weapon, and is best at reversing black and white to fool people. “
"Miss Murong seems to have put forward a rather ridiculous condition, what I haven't done before, why don't I do it. Why don't you change the conditions? If I lose, I will take a detour when I see King Jin in the future. "Even if Liu Mengyan doesn't care about this condition, she still has to think about her reputation.
She didn't want her to become a shameless person who stuck to King Jin in the eyes of everyone, and in this story, Murong Luoluo and King Jin were true love, and she was a third party.
"Okay, I believe Miss Chu, everyone here today has heard it, if Miss Chu loses, you must abide by what you said." Murong Luoluo was not particularly satisfied with this, but he also knew that he couldn't say anything more than that. As for what Liu Mengyan asked her to do, as long as she wins, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist!
Murong Luoluo is not unreasonable, she is indeed a very powerful opponent, compared to Li Yuanyuan's poetry, there is gorgeous rhetoric in time and space, and there is no artistic conception of poetry, Murong Luoluo has achieved the best of both worlds.
Therefore, Liu Mengyan and Murong Luoluo are not better at poetry or who recites more poetry, but they have become pairs.
Chu Jiangliu knew that his sister had won the title of a talented woman who admired the moon, and he had also seen Liu Mengyan and the third princess talking endlessly when reciting, so he was very confident in Liu Mengyan's strength.
But he didn't expect that this Murong Luoluo was really capable, which made him a little panicked. It is a trivial matter to walk around King Jin after losing, but losing to Murong Luoluo in front of so many people is a big deal.
This is a big problem.
"Momo, you said that sister, she won't really lose to Murong Luoluo, we are still on the territory of the Murong family, and if we lose, we can only let them laugh at us." Chu Jiangliu wanted to hear a little bit of the secret guard's words from his old nephew.
"If my aunt is about to lose, we interrupt the game, and it won't be a loss." Chu Mo replied solemnly.
Only Liu Mengyan, who was standing next to her, heard this, and felt a little helpless about the bad idea that her brother and nephew discussed.
"We won't lose, let's let Murong Luoluo go to the Taishi Mansion and cry and beg for forgiveness from the eldest uncle, such a good opportunity can't be missed!" Liu Mengyan turned her head sideways and whispered to her younger brother and nephew.
Although she is not compared to a poem to a pair, there is no wisdom of the ancestors to borrow, she still has her own brain, and she can't win against Murong Luoluo if she doesn't rely on anything.
Chu Jiangliu has always believed in Liu Mengyan, and Chu Mo will be suspicious of Chu Jiangliu's words.
"Can you really win? How do I think that Auntie, you almost couldn't think of it several times, but Murong Luoluo can easily face all your uplinks. Chu Mo muttered.
Liu Mengyan put her hand on Chu Mo's head, shook his head, and said, "I said that if I can win, I can win, if I lose, I will call your grandfather." ”
"I don't want you to call me grandpa, if you lose, take me and Chu Jiangliu out to play." Chu Mo dodged his head from Liu Mengyan's men and said what he was expecting.
"Okay, if I win, you can put on Linglong's skirt and accompany Linglong to play hide and seek with the little maids." Liu Mengyan can easily and happily make such jokes with her nephew, which means that Murong Luoluo did not put pressure on her.
Chu Mo's face darkened, playing with Chu Linglong was a disaster, although Chu Linglong was older than him, his mind was not at the same level as him at all, not to mention that he still wore Chu Linglong's clothes to play with Chu Linglong. At this moment, he was a little expecting Liu Mengyan to lose to Murong Luoluo......
But the result came as scheduled, his powerful aunt won the victory, and seeing that Murong Luoluo's face was in disbelief, it was really rare to be so shocked.
"Miss Murong, admit it!" After Liu Mengyan blocked Murong Luoluo and couldn't catch the pair no matter what, she hugged Murong Luoluo and said decently.
After Murong Luoluo was hit by an incredible blow, she calmed down, she lost, but the matter was not over here.
Moreover, she can't help but admit defeat, and it's the most humiliating thing to lose and not admit it.
"It's me who lost, it's getting late today, so I won't go to the Taishi's Mansion to disturb, and tomorrow, I will go to the Taishi's Mansion to fulfill what I said today." Murong Luoluo didn't twist the tunnel.
This is what distinguishes Murong Luoluo from others, whether it is the third princess and the fifth prince, they also know that they can't talk without talking, but they still can't accept it as calmly as Murong Luoluo.
"What time is tomorrow? I'm going to see it for myself, too. Liu Mengyan raised her eyebrows and said.
Hearing Liu Mengyan's question, a few people on the side began to fight for Murong Luoluo again, nothing more than that they felt that Liu Mengyan was aggressive, and a good and elegant competition turned into a bully.
Liu Mengyan didn't take it to heart, because this group of people was right, this time it was not she who unilaterally "bullied" Murong Luoluo.
Murong Luoluo's cleverness compared with Li Yuanyuan is reflected again, in fact, Li Yuanyuan really didn't do anything wrong, where is it her fault to be famous in Kyoto City, and there will be no fewer people who come to her to trouble her because of her fame in Kyoto City, but anyone who takes the initiative to find trouble is wrong, and Murong Luoluo will also let the world know that they are wrong, and use their vulgarity to set off their nobility.
Even when she framed Liu Mengyan with Shu Zhaoyi and Li Yuanyuan some time ago, although it was stealing chickens and rice, in fact, she didn't do anything bad except for knowing the truth but not stopping and handing Liu Mengyan the purse of reparation, if anyone wants to doubt her, then she just apologizes sincerely, how do you know that that kind of thing is stuffed in the purse.
This is the real level of the White Lotus, and it is also the real level of calculation, except for the victim, no one will feel that she is at fault.
Liu Mengyan wants to take revenge on Murong Luoluo, she is by no means a person who will easily forgive others for their mistakes, but she will not retaliate in the way she does today, because although she is not a white lotus, she also likes to use the same method as Murong Luoluo to cause others to commit a sin first, and then expose this sin.
And this time, Murong Luoluo did not lead Liu Mengyan herself, but Chu Jiangliu, a stupid younger brother.
"Tomorrow afternoon, Miss Chu, don't worry, I will definitely wait for you to come and make amends." Murong Luoluo behaved more tolerant and generous at this time, and directly set off Liu Mengyan as a person who has to make inches.
Obviously, Murong Luoluo originally owed the Qiao family a penance, and it was also clear that Murong Luoluo was willing to gamble and lose, which was a matter of course, but it was forcibly turned into Liu Mengyan's loss by Murong Luoluo in a few words.
If it was the temper of the original owner standing here today, I am afraid that he would have quarreled with Murong Luoluo a long time ago, which is indeed annoying enough......
On the way back from Murong's house, the carriage drove slowly, the crescent moon was in the sky, and Liu Mengyan, Chu Jiangliu and Chu Mo were sitting in the carriage.
Chu Jiangliu leaned on the carriage and began to doze off, Chu Mo was used to being silent, Liu Mengyan didn't say anything, and there was silence all around.
The carriage staggered back to the gate of Zuo Xiang's mansion like this, and after Liu Mengyan woke up Chu Jiangliu, she got out of the carriage first.
The night was already deep, there were no guards guarding the door at the door of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, the door was closed, and by the faint moonlight, Liu Mengyan saw the little boy who fell at the door.
Curled up in the corner, with a broken arrow stuck in his arm, his face was pale, that person was Jin Wu.
Liu Mengyan couldn't guess the reason why Jin Fu appeared here, with Jin Wu's status and status, he couldn't step out of the palace at all, but now he would appear at the door of the Zuo Xiangfu with such a posture, it's really strange.
"Six Princes, wake up!" Liu Mengyan hurriedly stepped forward to check on the situation of Jin Wu.
Although the arrow that fell on Jin Wu's arm did not hit the vital point, it was poisonous, and sooner or later it would kill Jin Wu.
Chu Jiangliu and Chu Mo ran up and were urged by Liu Mengyan to open the door of Zuo Xiangfu.
Jin Wu opened his eyes in a hazy haze, and the light was very dim, but he still easily recognized the person next to the person holding him. It's Liu Mengyan...... When Miss Chu came, he was relieved......
"Sixth Prince, you look at me, don't close your eyes, look at me!" Seeing Jin Xuan open his eyes, Liu Mengyan immediately hugged his head and said loudly.
Jin Hao heard Liu Mengyan's voice and wanted to close his eyes, but he tried hard to hold his eyelids, how could he not do what Miss Chu asked.
After the door opened, the three of them carefully helped Jin Fu inside.
