Chapter 227: False Talk
On the way from the restaurant to Qin Shuang'er's house, because she didn't meet any pedestrians, Qin Shuang'er and Chang Wen said a lot of words, most of which were memories of the old years, and occasionally mixed with two or three sentences of emotion.
"I didn't expect that after many years of not seeing, you have become an official of the imperial court, and you must have suffered a lot over the years." Qin Shuang'er said distressedly.
Her words were heard in her ears, warm in her heart, and even her expression became much gentler with the expression she often heard: "I have indeed suffered a lot over the years, but now everything has passed." ”
He defected to King Li and was reused, and now he is appreciated by the imperial court, it is only a matter of time before he gets ahead, and as long as he acts cautiously and carefully enough in the future, there should not be too many problems.
Chang Wen is very sure about his condition.
"When I was young, my family was in a difficult situation, but it was your family who gave help, and it was my uncle and aunt who often received help to barely support me, and now we rarely meet, I want to go and pay tribute to my uncle and aunt."
Chang Wen made a request to go to the cemetery, but Qin Shuang'er chose to agree without much thought.
Originally, she had planned to visit the cemetery herself.
While gossiping, the two of them came to the purpose of burying Qin Shuang'er's parents.
It had been several months since the time when the two old men were buried, and at this time, weeds had grown in front of the grave, Qin Shuang'er saw it uncomfortable, so she half-squatted down and used her white and delicate hands to pull out the weeds little by little.
Accidentally cut her fingertips during the action, she suddenly let out an exclamation.
Standing in front of the tomb and meditating, Chang Wen reacted: "What's wrong with you?" ”
"It's just a matter of accidentally getting scratched by the grass, don't worry, just wait a while." Qin Shuang'er smiled disappreciably, wiped her injured finger on the hem of her skirt, turned her head and began to clear the weeds again.
"I'll do it anyway." A little blood from her was enough to make Chang Wen feel distressed, and it was estimated that she would be injured if she continued to toss like this, so he took the initiative to take over the work, and then regardless of Qin Shuang'er's objection, he directly pushed the person to a relatively cool place, "You are here first, sit for a while, I will be able to finish these things soon." ”
How could Qin Shuang'er sit still?
She grabbed Chang Wen's hand, shook her head and said, "I'll come." ”
Chang Wen couldn't help but laugh, and his always cold expression was much softened: "Forget it, don't be reluctant." ”
He is an official of the imperial court, let a court official weed at the moment, if the matter spreads, will it be ridiculed by other nobles in the court?
The more Qin Shuang'er thought about it, the more panicked she became, but there was no way.
Because Chang Wen was very persistent, she had no choice but to sit next to her and do what she could.
After the weeds were cleared, Chang Wen finally found time to turn around and talk to her: "Your family is kind to me, no matter what happens in the future, I will definitely protect you." “
He made a solemn promise.
Qin Shuang'er was stunned at first, but before she could be moved, she was sent back to her home by Chang Wen.
She originally wanted to invite Chang Wen to come in for a cup of tea before leaving, but the other party didn't even want to enter the door.
This made Qin Shuang'er begin to doubt life.
He was reluctant to come in, was it because his home was too shabby, and the other party looked down on him at all?
Or is it something else?
When she was half-frowning and thinking about it, a young man suddenly ran over not far away.
The other party was obviously coming at Chang Wen, and he panted and said to Chang Wen as soon as the cannon was close: "Lord Chang, please come over to the south of King Li." ”
King Li has been busy making weapons recently, and he usually doesn't find himself, so why did he suddenly order someone to find him today?
Doubts shrouded Chang Wen's heart, and he couldn't stand anymore: "I'll go now." ”
Seeing that Chang Wen was busy leaving when he needed something, Qin Shuang'er knew that he couldn't keep it, so he raised his voice and asked Chang Wen to stand in place and wait for a while, and then turned his head and went to the yard to get something.
It wasn't long before she hurried out of the yard, still holding a tea bag in her hand.
"What is this?" It's often confusing.
"The tea grown by your own family," Qin Shuang'er showed shy half-lowered eyes, "Because the family background is not very good, Brother Chang, you rarely come over once, and I don't have anything good to give you, so I will send some tea leaves, talk about your heart, I hope you don't dislike these teas, the herbal tea you drank in Mrs. Lu's restaurant before was brewed with this kind of tea!" ”
Regardless of whether the latter condition is or not, Changwen chooses to accept it.
What Qin Shuang'er gave him, he should cherish it doubly.
This cherishment was vividly expressed by his small action of holding the tea leaves with both hands.
"By the way, you don't have to follow me in the future." Chang Wen walked halfway, and suddenly remembered something, turned his head and explained to his subordinates, "You will be responsible for protecting her safety here in the future, and report to me immediately if there is anything, do you understand what I mean?" ”
Although the subordinates can't understand the reason, he must carry it out unconditionally.
So people were kept by the common hearsay.
On the other hand, Wang Zhen was much more settled after being attacked by Ruqing and Jia Jia in the restaurant.
"Although I can't understand their martial arts paths, it is obvious from the proficiency of their moves that they are martial arts people," Wang Zhen furrowed his brows solemnly, "General Lu has colluded with martial arts people!" ”
The fact that court officials have dealings with martial arts people has always been the most feared by the superiors.
The civil officials are better, but the military generals are particularly strict, because the most noble one in the Forbidden City is afraid that he will not be able to control the generals, so he has long stipulated that the generals cannot contact the martial arts people at will, and now it seems that Lu Li has violated the regulations.
Wang Zhen had a similar guess in his heart, but he was not sure.
After all, Lu Li is a soldier who came out of the battlefield, and he has participated in a lot of battles in recent years, and he can be regarded as a great achievement, if he told the emperor for no reason that there was collusion between people in Lu Li's martial arts, the emperor would not believe these statements if he had a little brain.
Wang Zhen felt that he needed a witness now.
He was worried about how to prove that Lu Li was not a good person, when someone suddenly appeared behind him and even put his hand on his body.
Out of the inertia of the secret guard, Wang Zhen subconsciously countered, but before he could twist the opponent's arm, he raised his voice and shouted.
"Wang Guard, you are inevitably too much, this prince was just playing an inconsequential little joke with you just now, I didn't expect you to do such a poisonous thing to me."
Wang Zhen looked at it calmly, only to find that the person who came was Feng Bailin, and he quickly explained that his rudeness was because he was thinking about things a little distracted: "I hope Your Highness will not blame." “
Feng Bailin was unexpectedly good-tempered about this.
"It's fine, it's just a small problem." He said this disappreciatively, and then his puzzled gaze kept rolling on Wang Zhen's body, "Speaking of which, Wang Guard, why did you appear here I remember that you usually follow your father and the emperor, and you usually don't leave the palace easily if you have nothing to do, why did you suddenly appear here today?" ”
Feng Bailin's first reaction to this was that something happened in the palace.
Wang Zhen didn't dare to hide it, and told him about being sent out by the emperor to investigate, and he didn't dare to tell Feng Bailin about what he was investigating.
"Your Highness, I heard that you have recently had a disagreement with General Lu, can your subordinates ask about the specific situation?"
He dared to ask, but Feng Bailin didn't dare to say.
Coveting An Xiabai is such a thing, being known by Wang Zhen is equivalent to being known by the emperor, maybe he will be punished heavily, he doesn't dare to confess even if he dies.
"It's... The disagreement with General Lu did exist, but it was not serious. ”
Feng Bailin's hesitant appearance fell on Wang Zhen seriously, and it immediately became an opportunity: "Your Highness can know about the collusion of General Lu's martial arts people?" ”
This Feng Bailin really doesn't know!
But from Wang Zhen's words, he felt that there was a possibility of targeting Lu Li, so he didn't know that he knew it very well, and even made up many accusations out of thin air to slander.
And Wang Zhen not only believed everything, but also transmitted the news back to the capital.
Just when they were struggling with whether Lu Li had colluded with martial arts people, Mo Simin was also struggling with something.
Seeing that the wedding date was approaching, she was full of only thinking about organizing a grand wedding for herself, everything had to be the best, and all the objects with beautiful meanings in the capital were collected by her, and finally she set her sights on the wishful pillow of the Yang family's firm.
"I heard that your business firm has a treasure of the town store, called Ruyi Pillow, can you sell it to me?"
The person in charge of greeting Mo Simin was Yang Xiao, the second lady of the Yang family, who shook her head with a wry smile when she heard the request and said, "It's not that we don't want to sell it, it's that Ruyi pillows are no longer in the store." ”
She told Mo that the wishful pillow had been given by her to a friend.
Mo Simin was very anxious when she heard it, the meaning of the wishful pillow was good, she was so happy, how could she do it if she couldn't get it?
"Can you buy the Ruyi pillow again, or make another one, my wedding date is approaching, it's really like buying this Ruyi pillow in your store."
Mo Simin thought that his words were polite enough, but he didn't expect Yang Xiao to buy it at all.
"I can understand your feelings, Miss Mo, it's just that the wishful pillow has been sent, where is the reason to take it back? As for making another one, it's even more unlikely. Yang Xiao sighed and shook his head.
What she never expected was that her words successfully aroused the anger in Mo Simin's heart.
Maybe the other party was not in a very good mood when he went out today, or because of other reasons, in short, Mo Simin suddenly got angry, and made trouble with Yang Xiao, saying that if she didn't buy the Ruyi pillow that she sent out, she would smash the Yang family's shop.
Yang Xiao, who was threatened, still insisted on his decision.
The angry Mo Simin really let people smash the Yang family's shop.
"It's okay, they will pay for it," Yang Xiao said calmly, turning his head to write a letter to Mo Qiyan in the study, the content of which was not only to state the facts, but also to accuse Mo Simin of being rude.
said that Mo Qiyan's old face was flushed, and his face was lost.
As soon as Mo Simin got home, he locked people in the study, and ordered her to be punished for copying female virtues a hundred times: "During this time, you stay in your room and are not allowed to go anywhere, do you hear?" ”
Mo Simin said with a look of indignation: "I didn't do anything wrong, why should I be concerned?" ”
"You've lost all my old face today, and you're embarrassed to say that you didn't do anything wrong?" , Mo Qiyan was so angry that he almost fainted, "Don't come out until you realize your mistake!" ”
