52. The golden house hides you
Huan Lin stood on the steps, shivering in the wind.
The kind in my heart that is called aggrieved and can't cry. At this moment, she just wanted to kick the door and break in and pull out Shen Yuli to ask for an understanding.
But the door of King Qing's Mansion is very strong and can't be kicked in. There is also a little eunuch waiting at the door, and she can't break in to beat and scold people.
It's really not what it used to be. Huan Lin thought aggrievedly, and the corners of his mouth drooped as if he had hung a scale.
The little eunuchs guarding the door were all looking at their noses and noses, and they were very honest. Although they are respectful to the forest, they are actually willing to suffer a loss in the forest. At this time, the wish was fulfilled, of course, no one was willing to come forward to comfort, and it would be good if it didn't fall into the well.
Huan Lin didn't count on others, he sat down on the steps with his hands in his hands, and looked up at the sky.
Let her kneel all night, that is absolutely impossible. But she didn't know where to go at this point, so she just sat here.
That's fine, she whispered to herself in her heart.
She guarded the door for Shen Yuli, which could prevent strange people from sneaking in in the middle of the night, and also preventing Shen Yuli from sneaking up in the middle of the night to sneak up to some strange place.
It's really thoughtful and worthy of praise.
Huan Lin boasted about himself in his heart, enjoying himself and trembling.
After the August Festival, it is the real autumn, and the wind at night makes the little sparrow's flesh and skin hurt.
Having a home but not having a home is the same as when the eaves of the nest were destroyed by lightning and had to live on the streets with a group of brothers and sisters.
Seeing that after the third watch, Huan Lin finally couldn't stay up and planned to sleep on the railing for a while, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a white shadow jumping down from the low wall and stopping at her side silently.
Circling the forest, he jumped up.
When he was busy turning back to ask the little eunuchs for help, he found that the bastard children had already fallen asleep under the porch. They said that they were guarding the gate here, but in fact, there were no seventy or eighty thunderbolts that could not wake them up at all.
Alone.
Huan Lin took a few steps back, leaned his back against the railing, and boldly asked, "...... Xue, why are you here?" Haven't you been in the palace all the time...... Blessed? ”
"What's the fun of being in the palace all the time?" The white cat stood elegantly on the highest stone steps, and said in a contemptuous tone: "Those sparrows in the palace are more stupid than the other, and none of them can compare to you, it's not fun!" ”
These words sounded like compliments, but in his heart, he always felt as if something was not right.
While speaking, the white cat has changed into the appearance of a young man, leaning on the railing without standing up, and rubbing against the little sparrow: "Hey, the little cub let you kneel all night, you sit here comfortably, aren't you afraid that he will catch Ming'er to clean you up?" ”
"How do you know......" Huan Lin couldn't help but be curious as he moved to the side cowardly, staring at him with wide eyes.
Xue Yulang sneered: "What don't I know? Not only do I know that you offended the little cub's wife and were punished by him to kneel on the steps for a night, but I also know that the little cub's wife is the prime minister's baby daughter, and she was born to be a queen. When the little cub becomes the emperor in the future, his wife will be the queen of the world, and a little finger can poke you to death! ”
General Huan Lin listened suspiciously and froze.
That Miss Chen Liu, who looks fierce but is actually very easy to bully, wants to be the queen's mother?
Xue Yulang nodded solemnly and helped her confirm again: "That's right." Chen Xiang said in the court that if the little cub wants to be the emperor, he has to rely on his father-in-law to help, so he will not treat his wife badly. Don't look at him protecting you today, in fact, he is angry with his wife! The little couple fights at the head of the bed and the end of the bed, and it will be fine like glue in two days! ”
A gust of wind came, and Huanlin shivered inexplicably, and then laughed again: "What are you telling me about this?" Whether Shen Yuli gets along well with his princess or not is his business, and I won't help him coax his wife! ”
"So you're a fool!" Xue Yulang looked angry with hatred and hatred, "Why did you punish you for kneeling tonight?" He is laying the groundwork for reconciliation with his wife in the future! Now that's it, when his wife is in power in the future, do you still want to have a way to live? ”
Huan Lin originally felt that tonight's kneeling punishment was inexplicable, but when he heard him say this, he couldn't help but feel his heart beat suddenly.
But she wasn't stupid to the end, and soon caught a little sobriety from the panic: "No! That's not right...... He wants to reconcile with his wife, why is he using me as a foreshadowing? This has nothing to do with me! ”
"It's a big deal with you, fool!" Xue Yulang shook his sleeves and staggered: "This time, the whole of Kyoto will know that you are the male pet of that little cub, and when the time comes, he will please his wife, as long as he kills you with a knife, it will be considered loyal!" Your neck is carried in other people's hands, you are still stupid, you will come to him as soon as you leave the palace! ”
"What......" Huan Lin was dumbfounded.
She was really confused, hearing that this meant that Shen Yuli wanted to kill her, but why? Also, What is a 'male pet'?
"Hehe," Xue Yulang looked at her and smiled sadly: "You don't know what a 'male pet' is?" That's the same thing...... Now the rumors are flying all over the sky, and that little cub never knew that you were a female, what a stupid death! So you rub his bed every day and sleep in vain? Haha, a pair of fools! ”
The more Huan Lin listened, the more he didn't understand, and he intuitively felt that this was not a good word, so he simply got angry first, jumped up, and stretched out his claws to scratch Xue Yulang's face.
Of course, Xue Yulang was not afraid of her, so he gently and skillfully turned sideways, and smiled: "You said that you are a good and decent sparrow, and you have to run to be a little eunuch for others, now it's okay, right?" has become a male pet! Oh no, you're not actually a 'male pet', at most a 'no man, no female pet'...... Anyway, the little cub and his wife have already saved two jars of vinegar in her stomach, and when she takes power, the first person she wants to kill is you, you weigh it yourself! ”
Huan Lin imagined the scene where Chen Lingwan wanted to kill her and Shen Yuli handed the knife beside him, and he shuddered in fright: "What do you mean...... Shen Yuli really won't help me? ”
"!" Xue Yulang sneered, "How could he help you?" He's going to cut you down before his wife!" Your head is his name for his father-in-law! ”
When Huan Lin heard him say something serious, he couldn't help but believe a point or two in his heart. Looking at the window of the black hole in the study, she suddenly felt that her head was dangling a little bit around her neck.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Xue Yulang smiled more and more wickedly, his upper body tilted and he leaned towards Huanlin, and stretched out his hand: "Little fool, don't wait here for someone to kill you, come with me!" ”
Huanlin was immediately alert.
"Xue Yulang," she quickly thought about the unreasonableness of this matter in her heart, and scratched her head anxiously: "I always feel that you lied to me!" You don't necessarily have a single sentence in a hundred words that is true! ”
Xue Yulang was so angry with her that he almost wanted to bite someone, and when he thought of his purpose, he could only grit his teeth and squeeze out a smile: "You dare to say that I lied to you, little fool, when did you not listen to me and did not suffer?" Okay, if you don't believe me, let me help you think about it again: do you know why the minions of this palace are so respectful to you? ”
"Because I'm smart, beautiful, lively, and cute......," Huan Lin didn't hesitate at all.
Xue Yulang said "phew", reached out and grabbed her hair and rubbed it for a while: "Little fool, little fool, little fool!" People are afraid of you and listen to you because that little cub is good with you! The more they are afraid of you now, the more those old things and those stupid people in the court will scold you! The more the old thing scolds you, the more dangerous your situation will be! When the time comes, the little cub won't be able to hold on, and it's okay to cut off your head, maybe he will split your five horses into corpses, or cut you with a thousand knives! ”
Huanlin shuddered with fright.
She is not a pure stupidity, after Xue Yulang mentioned it, she finally remembered the old saying "If you climb high, you will fall heavy".
Thinking that she is a useless little sparrow, she used to run errands and be a little eunuch, but now she is still a eunuch in the palace, but she is worshiped as half a master, isn't this just roasting her on the fire? The eunuchs who are vying for power and profit are staring like wolves one by one, maybe one day they will roast her crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and then gnaw her!
The more Huan Lin thought about it, the more frightened he became, and finally couldn't stand anymore, and tugged at Xue Yulang's sleeve cowardly: "That...... I don't dare to go back to the palace, where am I going? ”
"Fool!" Xue Yulang flicked his sleeves arrogantly and shook her off, "Your Xue Ye's mana is boundless, isn't it a matter of waving your hand to hide in the golden house?" Come with me! ”
Huan Lin hesitated, looked at him, and then looked at the study.
Xue Yulang waited impatiently, and flicked his sleeves at her in an uproar: "Fool, let's go!" ”
A wisp of white smoke came out of his sleeve and drifted away.
Huanlin was stunned for a moment, looking dazed: "Let's go...... Let's go? ”
"That's right, Shen Yuli and his wife and his father-in-law conspired to murder you, you can only follow me!" Xue Yulang lied without a draft, and his sleeves fluttered in an immortal style.
……
Here, the little eunuch was blown by the cold wind for half a night, and finally left with the liar, which can be described as extremely miserable; The new princess over there was even more upset than her.
In the new house, the master and servant hugged their heads and cried all night, and then Chen Lingwan was ruthless, and ordered a little maid to send Mama Jiang out of the house with a burden before dawn and sent back to Chen's house.
As for whether the Chen family is willing to stay and whether they will be punished, this is not something that Miss Chen Liu needs to worry about.
After sending Mama Jiang away, the maid Huizhu turned back and was cautious: "Miss, don't be sad, the setback is only temporary." Sooner or later, Uncle will find out what is good about you, and you will not go wrong as long as you cheer up and live your life as before. Mama Jiang and Sister Tianxiang are gone, you still have us......"
"What's the use of you?" Chen Lingwan snapped the jade comb in his hand, "Do you have the insight of Mama Jiang, or do you have the loyalty of Tianxiang?" Nothing, just a bunch of rubbish! ”
Huizhu split her head and covered her face, and she was so frightened that she was about to vomit blood, but she didn't dare to show it on her face, and still smiled: "Yes, we are useless." Miss, you will be there for a few days, and when the master knows about this, he will definitely help you pick a good one and send it over, we will not be so isolated. ”
"My dad? What's the use of that old thing? Chen Lingwan slapped the table and scolded, "If he had been useful, he wouldn't have married me to such a ghost place!" ”
Huizhu didn't dare to accept this kind of words, so she had to bow her head honestly and honestly, secretly slandering in her heart.
I want to marry the prince again, and I can't look down on King Qing, who does this Miss Jiao want to marry? The third prince is very good, but unfortunately his life span is a little shorter, and I am afraid that the bones will stink at this time!
Chen Lingwan didn't know the little maid's thoughts, she was sullen for half a while, and knocked on the corner of the table several times in a row: "Don't comb my hair yet, what are you rubbing?" What about waiting for the funeral? ”
Huizhu was so frightened that she shuddered, and she didn't care about slandering anymore, so she hurriedly came over and picked up the comb.
It was easy to comb out the messy hair that had been caught, and the little maid looked at it again, and hesitated for a long time before timidly opening her mouth tentatively: "Miss Suri always said that the hairpin ring jewelry is heavy and has a headache, so it's okay to wear less today?" Yesterday's phoenix crown was so heavy......"
"Fart!" Chen Lingwan slapped her backhand with her mouth, "This princess is a bride, what does her hair look like when she is bare?" I'm going to enter the palace in a while, do you want to make the ladies in the palace laugh at my prime minister's house for not having money? ”
Huizhu covered her face and knelt on the ground, kowtowing while shouting "Slave damned", after a long time, she finally begged Chen Lingwan to dissipate her anger, and then dared to be aggrieved and got up to help the new princess comb her hair in a bun, and picked out a few expensive jewelry to put on.
Needless to say, the clothes will also have to be changed to bright colors.
A set of outfits is worn on the body, which is very different from Miss Chen Liu's usual elegant image. But she is a bride, and it is reasonable to dress up brightly, and no one will find it abrupt.
Huizhu and the other two girls silently helped Chen Lingwan finish dressing up, and then rushed out to pass breakfast, no one wanted to stay here to accompany her, let alone how to talk to this young lady who has always been known for her approachability.
What can be said? Let's guess if my uncle will come? Q: How to persist in this nominal marriage? Or maybe discuss whether there is a need to enter the palace today?
None of them wanted to die yet.
But others don't mention it, but Chen Lingwan herself wants to mention it.
The cook was brought from the Prime Minister's House, and the breakfast was cooked to the taste. Chen Lingwan picked a few very fine foods, drank tea, returned to the dressing table and re-evened the rouge on her lips, and got up: "Is the carriage ready?" Let's go, go into the palace. ”
This time I can't afford not to ask.
Huizhu stepped forward with a hard head, and her heart was pounding: "The carriage has naturally been prepared a long time ago. It's just Miss, my aunt's ......"
The newlyweds entered the palace to meet the emperor and the ladies, of course, they had to go together. If only the bride goes and the bridegroom is nowhere to be seen, who knows what the mouths of those people in the palace will say!
Several handmaidens were all worried, for fear that the young lady would not be angry for a while and vent her anger on them.
Chen Lingwan saw through their thoughts at a glance from the corner of her eyes, and she was so angry that she slapped Huizhu twice on her face: "You don't want to accompany me into the palace, don't you feel ashamed?" Tell you: Don't say that you are ashamed to be thrown into the palace today, even if you lose your life and throw your life into the palace, you must also accompany you! As a girl of the Chen family, she is only willing to enjoy happiness, but she refuses to share hardships with her master, you want to be beautiful! ”
A few girls knew that she was just angry, and they didn't dare to argue at this time, so they had to scramble to show their loyalty, claiming that their master would never give up.
So a quarter of an hour later, a richly decorated carriage slowly drove away from the palace and headed straight for the palace.
When the news reached the study, Shen Yuli sneered: "Miss Chen Liu is really extraordinary, she does not retreat when facing major events, she is a open-minded person." ”
The little eunuch who reported the news didn't expect him to react like this, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and only after a while did he cautiously echo: "Yes, everyone in Kyoto knows that the princess is a very angry person, and there is a phase master who said that she has the demeanor of a mother......
Shen Yuli's face sank.
The little eunuch's knees instantly weakened and knelt down: "The slave is speechless, the slave is speechless!" Your Highness forgives ...... sins"
"Mother of the world," Shen Yuli put down the book in his hand and smiled: "If this is spread by others, it is killing her; If it is passed on by the Prime Minister himself, it is intended to be desperate, and if it does not succeed, it will become a benevolent. ”
The little eunuch didn't quite understand, but he didn't dare to ask, so he only knelt on the ground and said yes again and again.
Shen Yuli waved his hand and told him to get up, not in a hurry or angry: "Since the princess is willing to enter the palace alone, how can this king bear to touch her heart." If you go to the palace to report a letter, you will say that this king still has twenty big characters to come, and it will be about noon. ”
The little eunuch hurriedly agreed, but Shen Yuli did not study by the window as he said, but beckoned another little eunuch and asked expressionlessly, "Is Huanlin still kneeling on the steps?" ”
The little eunuch hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no, no......"
The corners of Shen Yuli's tense mouth were obviously relaxed.
The next moment, I heard the little eunuch continue: "...... I got up early in the morning and disappeared Brother Lin, and the slave asked around, and everyone said that they didn't see him, and most of them were greedy for fun and ran away! ”
Shen Yuli nodded, let out a random "um", tightened his brows and began to rummage through the messy books.
Seeing that he didn't look like he was about to be angry, the little eunuch thought about it and couldn't help but add: "Your Highness, I heard Xiao Guangzi who was on duty last night say that Brother Huanlin didn't kneel at all, and he was sitting on the steps all the time!" ”
Shen Yuli put down the book in his hand and raised his head: "'Sit all the time'?" How long to sit? ”
The little eunuch didn't expect him to ask this, and he couldn't answer for a while, so he said hesitantly: "Slaves, slaves don't know ......."
"Not only don't you know, but Xiaoguangzi doesn't know either, right?" Shen Yuli sneered, "If you really keep vigil with your heart, how can you not even know when people disappeared!" ”
The little eunuch was speechless for a moment.
Shen Yuli stood up irritably, and shouted to the guards at the door: "Take down the vigil at the door of the study last night, and each will be fined twenty court rods!" Also, gather everyone in the house and go all out to find the whereabouts of the forest! ”
The guards responded with a bang and acted in an orderly manner in the mansion.
Shen Yuli walked out of the door and walked on the stone steps outside, and looked at them carefully step by step, but did not find anything.
At this time, the sun was already very dazzling, Shen Yuli stood against the railing for a while, only to feel a burst of restlessness in his heart, and finally couldn't help but slap the railing fiercely: "Prepare the car!" This king wants to enter the palace! ”
