At the end of the second day when Tong Jingrong returned from Gongyang Street, Mengzhou secretly went to Yangshu Courtyard with the notebooks he bought from the market.

When Dream Zhou came, June had not yet arrived, so she found a novel story and read it several times, for fear of missing any witty words.

Footsteps came from outside the courtyard on time, and Meng Zhou found a good position by the window to spread out his notebook and read the story.

The footsteps really stopped by the window, and Meng Zhou bent the corners of his mouth, and just finished reading the whole story through the window.

The door was pushed open, and Meng Zhou hid the notebook and said with a smile: "You're back." ”

June put down the book, still looking cold and arrogant, but today lazily responded to her, "En." ”

Meng Zhou curled her lips and didn't say more, for three days in a row, she always carefully picked the story and read it to June through the window, which seemed to have become a secret that no one between them would tell it......

Mengzhou came out of Yangshu Courtyard and went directly to Heshan Courtyard, during this time, Heshan always went out early and returned late, every time she asked what Heshan was, she only promised a sentence or two, and did not say much, although Mengzhou did not know what to say, he always felt uneasy in his heart.

Mengzhou waited in the courtyard for a long time, and it wasn't until it got dark that she saw Heshan's tired figure.

"You're back. Oh, the tea I just made. ”

Heshan took a sip and spit it back expressionlessly, "Don't spoil good things in the future." ”

"It's not that exaggerated." Meng Zhou said and poured a cup of tea and took a sip and spit it out, "Well, it's really a little out of place." ”

"It's so late, you have something to do with me?"

Meng Zhou said: "It's not a big deal, I'm just looking at what you've been busy with lately, and I want to ask if I can help?" ”

"Dream Week."

"Yes."

Heshan's voice became deeper and deeper, "Miss Lin told me that the person I was looking for went to Linzhou Kingdom. ”

Meng Zhou didn't stop and said, "Since we know the news, then let's go find her." ”

Heshan raised his head, "Would you like to go with me?" ”

Meng Zhou bit his lip, was silent for a few seconds and nodded, "En." ”

"You better stay here, I think the prince is not bad to you, you stay here to avoid suffering with me..."

Meng Zhou chuckled, "Why are you saying this now like an abandoned resentful woman." ”

She knocked on the table and said, "I just hesitated because I was thinking about where your money could support us to go, and if we leave in the next few days, then I will have to prepare well." ”

Heshan smiled and looked at the courtyard gate, "What if I say I'll leave tomorrow?" ”

In the Six Princes' Mansion, Jing Sheng looked at the wine jar in Jing Rong's hand, frowned, and said, "If you don't go back to your palace at night, what's the matter with me being drunk?" ”

"Upset."

"What did the master of the house do?"

Jing Rong looked up at Jing Sheng, and wanted to say something but sighed, "Forget it." ”

Jing Sheng grinded his teeth, "As far as you have a temperament that doesn't say anything and is uncertain, if I am designated by her, I can't stand it." ”

Jing Sheng's words provoked Jing Rong's pain point, he put down the wine jar, and glanced at the cool Buddha Jingsheng, "It's a pity that you are not her." ”

Jing Sheng sighed, "Brother, you've been waiting for so long, if you want me to say that you might as well tell her all this honestly, so as not to suffer these things again." ”

"If they were alive, I would have glad to tell her all about the past."

When Meng Zhou came back from the Heshan courtyard, he couldn't fall asleep on the bed for a long time, and finally he was a little sleepy, and the window in the room was suddenly pushed open with a bang.

Meng Zhou suddenly woke up, and his heart was full of anger.

"Shen Min... Rajah! Meng Zhou instantly lost his momentum, looked out the window and said suspiciously: "It's so late, you have something to do with me?" ”

"Am I good to you?"

Meng Zhou nodded with a confused face, "Lord Wang, why are you suddenly..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Jing Rong turn her head and leave. Within three seconds, the door creaked open.

Jing Rong got closer, and Meng Zhou smelled the smell of wine on his body, and she suddenly felt that it was strange that she had drunk wine.

She comforted: "Lord Wang, you are drunk, it's so late this day, you better go back and rest." ”

"I'm not leaving." Jing Rong said, as if to strengthen his belief that he would not leave, he staggered a few steps and sat on the edge of the bed, patted the edge of the bed and repeated, "I won't go." ”

"That's how you look when you're drunk." Meng Zhou raised his eyebrows and approached: "I also answered the question you asked, what else do you want?" ”

"Am I good to you?"

Meng Zhou sighed, sat beside Jing Rong, and said helplessly: "Okay, it's good." ”

"Then why are you leaving?"

Meng Zhou was stunned for a few seconds and said, "You heard what I said to Heshan." ”

Jing Rong was very persistent, "Why do you want to go?" ”

"If you're looking for someone, you have to run around."

"What if you find it?"

Meng Zhou spread his hands, "If you find it, then settle it." ”

"Then settle down." Jing Rong said and took Meng Zhou's hand and said to himself, "Let's settle down." ”

Meng Zhou smiled, "What you said, I thought you were looking for me." As soon as her words landed, her body was suddenly pulled into Jing Rong's arms, and the condensation incense mixed with the cold smell of wine swirled between the two.

Dream Zhou suddenly lost his mind, struggled and said, "You, you're drunk, I'll send you back." ”

"I know that those words of Heshan today are just a temptation, you will not leave Kyoto, you will not go to Linzhou Kingdom, and even I will see you when I wake up tomorrow."

Jing Rong paused for two seconds, his voice full of grievances, "But how can you agree so simply?" To this day, am I still such a dispensable existence to you? ”

"Me."

After Meng Zhou spit out a word, she didn't know what to say again, what to say, saying that she actually cared, but she also cared about what Shen Min'er said, she knew that the royal family was not like ordinary people, she was used to it, and she didn't want to become a canary just to please people in the future, and she didn't want these hazy and beautiful things to become their mutual torture in the future.

"Liar, you are a little liar, you said that you liked me that night, and you were going to leave with another man in the blink of an eye, how can you be so ruthless?"

All of Mengzhou's thoughts were shattered by the word Xinyue, "Impossible, when... She said as if she remembered something, and her heart skipped a beat, it must have been that she was drunk and babbling nonsense that night.

Jing Rong withdrew his hand, looked straight at Meng Zhou, and affirmed: "You remember, you like me." ”

The next day, when June passed by the Xiqiao, he saw Mengzhou sitting on the rocks by the lake, with a pile of stones piled up in his hand, and he was sighing and smashing the water, looking like he would not stop filling the lake.

The attendant next to him glanced at June and said, "Master, do you want to go over and take a look?" ”

"No need." June frowned, "Let's go." ”

At the end of Mengzhou, since Jing Rong said the word "Xinyue", these two words seemed to have been sown in her mind, growing longer and fuller, making her whole person uneasy.

The more she thought about it, the more upset she became, and threw all the stones on the ground into the lake as if she were relieved. The stones are scattered on the water of the lake, splashing layer by layer.

An exclamation was followed by a scolding.

"Bold!"

When I turned my head around, there was a delicate girl of fifteen or sixteen years old standing on the bridge, with a maid beside her, staring at her angrily.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a rude girl in Huaiwangfu, why don't you come over and make amends to the young lady."

Dream turned around and looked around, making sure that she was the only one, and pointed at himself in disbelief, "You said me." ”

The little maid was angry, "Naturally, it's you, who else here is so rude." ”

Mengzhou stood up and patted his clothes and approached, and comforted: "I advise you to be quiet, Huaiwangfu has always been quiet, so as not to pass by and think that you don't know the etiquette." ”

"You don't have to defend here, if you hadn't thrown stones, how could you have splashed Miss's dress."

Meng Zhou was impatient, and now she felt even more upset when she heard the babbling voice, but people were under the eaves, and it was better to cause less trouble, thinking about this, she lowered her head slightly, "It's a small one who doesn't know Mount Tai with eyes, and he collided with the nobleman, and I ask the nobleman to forgive me." ”

The little maid didn't give up, "What kind of attitude do you have?" ”

Meng Zhou sneered: "I have done everything to apologize, is there anything dissatisfaction with the nobles?" Or are you dissatisfied and it's all up to the little girl next to you? ”

The delicate lady listened to Meng Zhou's provocation, and finally spoke, "I'm not satisfied, you know when you see the fourth prince, come and take it away." ”

"Get out of the way."

Meng Zhou turned around when she heard this, and June stood behind her, looking impatient than her.

The maid saw that June's face was tight, and hurriedly said, "The slave has seen Xiao Shizi." "How can there be half a point of the appearance of just bullying Meng Zhou.

However, the delicate lady seemed to be quite familiar with June, and said with a smile: "Xiao Shizi, this is going to the school." ”

"Does it have anything to do with you?"

The delicate young lady's expression froze, and Meng Zhou smiled secretly in her heart, sure enough, as long as this child's temper is not against herself, it is quite relieving to provoke outsiders.

"Take it." June said and put the book in Mengzhou's hand, "Let's go." ”

"Xiao Shizi."

June looked sideways, and the pretty lady continued: "This maid doesn't know the etiquette, and she has to ask Xiao Shizi to discipline her well." ”

June sneered, "Uninvited, yelling, punishing my people at will, this is the Zhou family's etiquette?" ”

Meng Zhou raised his eyebrows, this kid is worthy of being a royal child, and his posture of teaching people is indeed extraordinary.

The pretty young lady blushed, and June said, "As for discipline, please hold your identity before you speak." ”

On the way, Meng Zhou held the two books and chatted: "At this time, shouldn't you be in the academy?"

June stopped his steps, frowned and pulled the book in Meng Zhou's hand, "Nosy." "Leave without stopping.

Dream Zhou looked inexplicable, how could this child be like a barometer, and he would look like a barometer for a while.

In the courtyard, one person sat on each side of the desk, and the incense circles rose and rose to the air to dissipate.

Heshan put a letter on the table, "The master asked me to tell the Fourth Highness that the matter should be done as soon as possible." ”

"Did you tell her?"

Heshan frowned, and Jing Rong continued, "The person you want to find has been found, do you want to keep hiding it from her?" Still," Jing Rong tapped on the table, "trying to take advantage of her. ”

Heshan clenched his fists and wrote lightly: "Each is his master." ”

"The Shen family's case had nothing to do with her back then."

Heshan smiled, "His Royal Highness's words are ridiculous, things are people, and the deceased really can't get along, but the living always have to pay the price." ”

Jing Rong's eyes swelled with darkness, "The Shen family's debts back then were self-inflicted, and they couldn't complain about others. ”

"What is the debt of the Shen family, His Royal Highness knows it in his heart, but the mistake and the punishment are always opposite, and if the two are biased, there will always be resentment."

"You planned to take her away."

"Planning? There is nothing in this world that is not carefully planned. ”

"Heshan, she told me about the matter between you." Jing Rong stared straight at Heshan's face, trying to find the slightest flaw in it.

"Didn't the Fourth Highness also see it? The person she trusts and confides most with right now is me. Heshan said with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "In order to achieve this, you have to pay some price." ”

There was only one person left at the desk, and Lin Chen walked out from behind the screen, "Lord Wang." ”

"After Shen Zuolong was beheaded back then, what happened to his family and the maids in the house?"

"According to the case file, several members of the Shen family were all sent to the border city as slaves."

Jing Rong frowned, "The case file records? ”

"Yes." Lin Yan said: "The subordinates followed the clues all the way and found that there were strange people who were killed and injured along the way recorded in the case file. Among them, the young lady of the Shen family, Shen Qiqi and her maidservant, died of illness in Linshui. ”

Jing Rong knocked on the table, "Now not only is she not dead, but she has also become the person next to the prince of Linzhou Kingdom." ”

"Yes, not only that, but now there are people in the Kyoto court, and there are also people she has installed."

Lin Chen said in two seconds: "Lord Wang, do you need subordinates..."

"Don't touch her."

Jing Rong said and clenched his hands, as if he was weighing a thousand pounds in his voice, "At least for now, don't move her." ”

In the Yuanxiao Pavilion, Heshan looked at the person opposite and said softly: "Master, there are many people here, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to appear here rashly." ”

Shen Qiqi dipped the tea in the cup and circled on the table, "I've been hiding for so long, now that I've been discovered, I'm just going to come out to see the sun." She said and looked at Heshan with her hands, "Do you think I'm dead?" ”

Heshan was stunned and shook his head.

Shen Qi smiled suddenly, with a look of charm in his eyes, "Also, I'm confused." ”

Heshan didn't know what Shen Qiqi was laughing at, but asked tentatively: "Master, what happened back then?" You sent someone to me for Dream Week? That letter was also written by you? ”

Shen Qiqi smiled and lowered her eyes, and the water in the cup trembled, reflecting her slightly cold face. She reached out and pushed the cup of tea away, "What do you think of her?" ”

Shen Qiqi said and added one sentence after another, "Su Qinghui." ”

The one that His Royal Highness put on the tip of his heart.

Heshan Momo cup, said in a low voice: "What does the master need me to do?" ”

Shen Qiqi leaned back, and his words fluttered as lightly as the wind, "Kill her." ”

Heshan's body stiffened, but for a moment he let go of the cup, and his voice became deeper and lower, "Okay." ”

Shen Qiqi's laughter sounded in her ears, and when Heshan looked up, she seemed to have heard a big joke, and her whole body trembled with laughter, and even her eyes were stained with moisture. Heshan frowned, not knowing why.

"Looks like you're getting along."

Shen Qiqi still had a smile in her voice, she touched the yellow rope on her hand, and said softly: "Then I'll rest assured." ”

Heshan never understood Shen Qiqi's verbal temptation today, but it wasn't until he returned to the courtyard and saw Mengzhou's figure that he understood what Shen Qiqi meant.

Mengzhou is a chip in Shen Qiqi's hand, and he is the best person to play this chip.

As he himself said, the person in front of him trusts him, and he has countless opportunities to end her life, but he doesn't need to do this, he just needs to pull the thread of trust between Meng Zhou and Jing Rong, and some regrets will naturally become irreparable.

Just like Shen Qiqi loved and trusted His Royal Highness the Four Highnesses back then, but the reality is often cruel and ruthless, her trust in love is crushed, her self-esteem and pride are trampled underfoot, and those beautiful things are just her self-imagination and big dreams.

Shen Qiqi buried him by her side for so long, waiting for this moment. Now, the four of them are standing at the ends of the balance beam, with endless cliffs at their feet, moving and pulling their whole bodies.

He understands this truth, and Shen Qiqi and Jing Rong naturally understand it, so no one dares to make a rash move, what they are doing now is just testing each other.
