Chapter 166: What about washing away the lead
In the morning, a guest came to Qinghui Garden, asking to see the host, Xia Hongying. After Steward Zhao saw it, he hurriedly invited people to the courtyard, and then went to the study to report to the master.
But Mr. Li stopped him, saying that Gongzi was having something to do now and couldn't be disturbed. On weekdays, Steward Zhao only does his duty and will not argue with Manager Li, but this time, Steward Zhao insists on refusing to back down.
Seeing this, Manager Li didn't let him in, and the noise of the two people finally alarmed Xia Hongying, he opened the door and said unhappily: "It's noisy early in the morning, what kind of system!" ”
Manager Li hurriedly said: "Childe, I have already said that you are busy with important matters, and it is inconvenient to disturb, but this Steward Zhao said that he has 100,000 urgent matters here, and he must see you immediately." ”
"Tell me, what's going on?" Xia Hongying knew that this Steward Zhao had always been measured and would not look for trouble.
Steward Zhao said respectfully: "Son, there is a distinguished guest who has come to the door, and the small one has already invited people to the flower hall of the picking courtyard." ”
Manager Li reprimanded: "Presumptuous, what kind of place is this mining courtyard, how can you let people in at will!" ”
Xia Hongying understood, didn't say a word, and didn't care about the drizzle, and hurriedly ran to the picking courtyard. Manager Li didn't know why, so he took the umbrella and hurriedly followed.
To say that this Steward Zhao has also been in Qinghui Yuan for more than ten years, he knows the things of five years ago clearly, and he also knows the mind of the son at that time, combined with the whereabouts of the son a few days ago, he knows that the weight in the heart of the son has not changed.
Hearing the footsteps, Xue Qing looked up and saw Xia Hongying's figure, followed by a few people behind him, got up to greet him, and curtsied: "The people's girl Yu Linglong pays a visit to Xia Gongzi." ”
Xia Hongying stretched out her hand to support her, looked her up and down, and said disappointedly: "Xue Qing, I don't like you like this." ”
Xue Qing naturally knew what he was referring to, what he liked was Li Xueqing, who had once roamed the rivers and lakes together, not the jade Linglong with the smell of wind and dust in front of him. The reason why she came like this was because she hoped that Li Xueqing would still be Li Xueqing, but she was only forced to be Yu Linglong.
But now she has a request for others, so she can only bow her head, so she looks at Manager Li beside him: "Take me to the bath and change clothes." ”
But Manager Li stood in place, without any expression, just waiting for Xia Hongying's orders. If the master does not speak, he does not dare to assert himself.
Xue Qing chuckled and said, "It seems that I can't call the people on Mr. Xia's side, so it's okay, disturb Mr. Xia, Linglong will leave." ”
"Wait!" Xia Hongying grabbed her, looked at Manager Li and said coldly, "It's not a long-sighted thing, Miss Li's words are my words, do you understand?" ”
"The slave is guilty! The minion is guilty! Girl, please wait. Manager Li retreated resignedly, but in a blink of an eye, he yelled at Steward Zhao, "Don't arrange for someone to come over to serve the girl!" ”
At this time, Steward Zhao had already arranged for Ye Ya'er, the girl who was originally waiting for Xueqing in Qinghui Garden, to wait aside, and it was this Ye Ya'er who told Xia Hong that the cherry blossom was Miss Li.
"Girl, please!" Ye Ya'er said sweetly.
Manager Li glanced at Steward Zhao's distant figure hatefully, it turned out that they had long known that this lord could not afford to offend, but they didn't tell him, let him make a fool of himself in front of his son, and waited.
He cautiously approached Xia Hongying again, and flattered: "Childe......"
Xia Hongying snorted lightly, turned around and sat on the chair, picked up the teacup that Xue Qing had drunk just now and took a sip.
Manager Li was even more surprised in his heart, it seemed that this one had more weight in Gongzi's heart than he imagined. Not only can she easily provoke the emotions of the master, the master is not shy about her at all, and Steward Zhao also directly invited her into the courtyard, which is the courtyard of the master's mother.
The more Mr. Li thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, how could this woman look so familiar, and suddenly remembered, this, isn't this the concubine! Although it is not exactly similar to the portrait in Guan Ju Palace, there are also eight points, and then look at the attitude of the son, it can't be fake!
Xue Qing was about to ask Ye Ya'er to buy the clothes she wanted, but Ye Ya'er smiled and said, "The girl's clothes, the son has already prepared them." ”
Saying that, she took Xue Qing to the house where she used to live, and Ye Ya'er opened the wardrobe, and it was indeed full of women's clothes. Xue Qing stroked them one by one, and saw that they were all very similar to her clothes five years ago.
"These ......"
"Every year the master instructs us to prepare the best clothes of the year in case the girl comes to stay."
At this time, the bathing water has also been prepared, and the water surface is covered with flower petals. The water is murmuring, and the lead is washed away, and no powder is applied. Xue Qing looked at herself in the mirror and sighed: What about washing away the lead, she is no longer Yu Linglong, but she still needs to use this way to achieve her goals, what is the difference between her and Yu Linglong.
After thinking for a while, Xue Qing chose a suitable dress, combed her hair in a bun, and went to invite Xia Hongying.
Xia Hongying came to the place as promised, only to see a woman in red standing in the courtyard in the drizzle, looking at the red bean tree in a daze.
took the umbrella in Mr. Li's management and asked them all to retreat, he slowly stepped forward and covered her under the umbrella, his voice trembling a little: "Can the girl go with him?" ”
The woman turned and smiled at him. It was as if he had returned to the moment when he first saw him, his eyes were devastated, his eyes were in a trance, and his heart melted. What about the beauty plan, what about ulterior motives, he just wants to put this scenery that he was fascinated by the first time he saw it under his banner.
No more words, hugged the beauty, walked into the building, and the hibiscus tent was warm.
"Don't worry, I've already taken care of everything." The great thing about dealing with a smart person is that you don't have to say it, he understands it.
Xue Qing had already sorted out her clothes: "Then I'll go first." 126 Chinese Net
"Xue Qing, do you think I'm easy to fool, so you want to send me away?" Xia Hongying was dissatisfied, "Even if you use beauty tricks, don't give up halfway." ”
"What do you want to say?"
"You know what I want."
"You know it can't be."
"I'll be here for two months, stay with me."
Xue Qing didn't speak, of course she understood what this companion meant. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Red cherry blossoms...... Then you can wait for me to go back before you release him...... Don't treat him badly in prison......"
"Heh, Xueqing, in your eyes, I'm not even as good as a stand-in...... It's up to you. ”
"Let me go see him first."
"Prison cell, you're still ...... Well, the weather is not good today, and when I have all arranged, you can go again tomorrow. ”
"Then, I'll go back to the Emerald Pavilion to pack up my things." For some reason, Xue Qing just wanted to escape.
"I don't have to clean up, I don't lack anything here. If something is missing, send someone to buy it, but if you are not satisfied, you can send a servant to get it. ”
"Some clothes, it's inconvenient for the little guy."
"Don't wear those vulgar clothes anymore, I have already told people to prepare your clothes. Didn't Ye Yaer tell you? ”
Xue Qing sat down and puffed up, "I'm hungry." Although there is an element of gambling, she is really hungry, afraid that Yuheng will suffer in prison, she came over early in the morning without eating, and then she was tossed again, and now she is hungry and tired, and her legs and feet are weak.
"Okay, I'll tell you to eat."
After dinner, Xia Hongying went to do her own things, and Xue Qing didn't bother to do anything else, so she fell asleep on the couch.
Ye Ya'er had served Xueqing before, knew her preferences, and after instructing the maids in the courtyard not to disturb the girl's rest, she was busy preparing some things that the girl liked, which could be used to relieve the girl's boredom when the son was away. This Ye Ya'er is looking forward to the girl being able to follow her son-in-law.
The next day, with Xia Hongying's permission, Xue Qing went to see Long Yuheng alone. Xia Hongying was not worried, he knew that if she wanted to run, she would have gone to rob the prison by herself. The reason why she was reluctant to do this was because she wanted Long Yuheng to live in the sun in the future, and he could go to any place frankly, instead of hiding everywhere in the name of a murderer.
It was the first time Xue Qing had come to a place like a prison cell, and when Huangfu Zong was thrown into the prison before, Xue Qing didn't go to see him.
A dark, oppressive aura came, and she didn't like it very much. Walking in all the way, there are not many people imprisoned inside, and it seems that Red Sakura is really a good emperor.
The inside of the prison was cleaner than she had imagined, and although it was a straw floor, it was not as dilapidated as it was written in the book.
After turning a corner, he saw Long Yuheng locked inside, and he sat quietly, this cell was more spacious and cleaner than the others, and there was a simple bed covered with straw, as well as a simple table and a stool.
The cell boss opened the cell door: "If you have something to say, you only have a quarter of an hour!" ”
Long Yuheng raised his head, and immediately stood up when he saw the comer: "Sister! ”
He wanted to take her hand, but when he saw his dirty appearance and thought that his sister loved to be clean, his hands hung there. Instead, he wiped the stool with his sleeve: "Sister, you sit!" ”
Xue Qing stood there and didn't move, only asked, "Yuheng, are you okay?" Although Long Yuheng looked as usual, he could also faintly see some scars.
"It's fine."
"Really?"
"Really! When I was first imprisoned, Jiang Ximing, the dog officer, tried to torture me on the pretext of interrogation. After I had been whipped twice, he suddenly left in a hurry, and when he came back, he stopped interrogating me, and yesterday he changed me to a cell. ”
Xue Qing understood, from the time of Yu Heng's accident, Hong Ying had already made a move, he expected his own actions, and was waiting for her to throw herself into the net! Xue Qing couldn't help but think, if she didn't go to him yesterday, would he just let Jiang Ximing do nothing?
Xue Qing looked at this cell, and then at the others. It seems that no matter where you are, no matter what time you are, people are divided into three, six, nine and so on. This should be the place where some people with special status have broken the law and are imprisoned, and Red Sakura doesn't want to go to those dirty and dilapidated places by herself, so she arranged this place for him, also to make herself feel at ease.
"Yuheng, don't worry, you will be able to go out soon."
"Sister!" Long Yuheng suddenly understood, "Don't beg that Xia Gongzi, I don't want you to wronged yourself for me." ”
"What are you thinking, I also have my own power. It's just that I haven't been in touch with those old friends for a long time, and it takes some time to move around. ”
"Sister, don't lie to me."
"Okay, stay obediently, don't make trouble, Jiang Ximing won't dare to touch you."
