Marriage (Increase)
The next day, Xiao Yifeng taught a few arrogant and domineering rich children in the Drunken Red Mansion, and also maintained a dancing girl, which reached Xiao Yu's ears.
"Lord Wang, what should I do about this?" He Bo asked worriedly.
Xiao Yu sighed, "Send someone to press it down, and it can't be passed on to the emperor's uncle." ”
Early this morning, I don't know who spread the news that Xiao Yifeng taught a few rich children in the drunken red mansion last night, and exaggerated it with false rumors. said that Xiao Yifeng made a fuss because a dancer in the drunken Red Mansion was jealous.
Xiao Yu knew Xiao Yifeng's character, and he would never do such a thing. But Xiao Weichi in the palace is not necessarily, if he really believes the rumors outside and disposes of Xiao Yifeng and some innocent people, then he really falls for someone else's scheme.
"Lord Wang."
Changning Xingse hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, arching his hand and saying, "The subordinates just investigated the source of the rumor, which is a family on the outskirts of Liancheng. But when his subordinates arrived, the family seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. ”
Xiao Yu suddenly smiled, and his words were soaked with coldness, "Dig three feet into the ground within a radius of 100 miles for this king, but this king wants to see who wants to trap Changqing in such a situation." ”
Changning was stunned and retreated.
Lord Wang, he hasn't been so angry for a long time, but I'm afraid that this time he will be serious.
When Changning closed the door, Hua Jinse happened to come alone with a small food box.
"Miss Jinse." Changning greeted Hua Jinse with a slight smile.
Hua Jinse also smiled and pushed the door open.
Inside the house, Uncle He was talking to Xiao Yu about something, but when he saw Hua Jinse coming, he stopped the topic and bowed and retired.
Hua Jinse didn't care, and took out the food in the food box in the same way and put it in front of Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu put away Fang Cai's anger, took the chopsticks handed by Hua Jinse, and then took a chopstick dish to Hua Jinse's mouth.
Hua Jinse ate it very naturally, but after only chewing for a moment, he furrowed his eyebrows and said, "This salt seems to be too much."
Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows, not minding that this chopstick was used by Hua Jinse, and he also took a chopstick and the same dish and sent it to his mouth. After a while, he said: "Jin'er's craftsmanship is really getting better and better."
Because Xiao Yu was sick, Hua Jinse also had to pretend to make all kinds of nourishing medicinal food for Xiao Yu every day. Of course, one of them is indispensable for Xiao Yu to ask for soft grinding and hard foaming.
"Really?" Hua Jinse stared at Xiao Yu suspiciously.
Xiao Yu nodded hurriedly, scooped another spoonful of soup and sent it over.
Hua Jinse's body leaned slightly and drank the mouthful of soup. The frowning brow was also soothed.
This soup is still ingestible.
The two of them finished their lunch in this way. In the afternoon, Xiao Yu took Hua Jinse to walk in the palace every day and bask in the sun. It is said that I have been sick in bed for a long time and need to go out to breathe fresh air.
"Jin'er, do you think that lake is good-looking?" Xiao Yu excitedly pointed to the clear artificial lake.
Hua Jinse nodded, "It's good-looking." ”
"Don't you think that Jin'er thinks that this lake is like your eyes, and it is full of my reflections."
Hua Jinse glanced at Xiao Yu, who was looking at himself excitedly, smiled, and said, "It's like water in your head."
Xiao Yu is a stalk, what a déjà vu this is.
"That's fine, I've got you on my mind anyway." Xiao Yu whispered in defense.
Just like the reflection on the lake, his heart is full of pictures of him and Hua Jinse getting along.
Hua Jinse didn't hear Xiao Yu's words and continued to walk forward.
Xiao Yu was sharp-eyed and found that Hua Jinse's ears were red. chased after her happily, pestered Hua Jinse, and said a bunch of shameless words in her ear.
provoked Hua Jinse to finally throw off his sleeves and leave.
When Xiao Yifeng and Yu Luming came together, they went straight to the study, but they were told that Xiao Yu was building a small building with incense.
So the two of them came to Hanxiang Xiaozhu in a daze, and saw Xiao Yu surrounding Hua Jinse peeling fruit and begging for forgiveness. It's just a sight to behold!
Xiao Yu noticed the two of them early in the morning, glanced at the two of them lightly, and continued to bow his head to peel grapes for Hua Jinse.
However, Hua Jinse was not as comfortable as Xiao Yu, she pushed Xiao Yu's hand away, and pretended to be calm and shouted: "Enough."
Xiao Yu still didn't give up, "Jin'er, are you still angry with me?"
Hua Jinse coughed lightly and replied, "No."
"Then why don't you eat the grapes I peeled?" Xiao Yu complained with a grudge on his face.
Hua Jinse's whole face was about to burn. And the two people standing next to the play were not much better.
Where is the smiling fox that used to be, and who is the coquettish person standing in front of them begging for forgiveness? Is it still the noble and clean King Ning?
Hua Jinse embarrassedly picked up the peeled grapes in Xiao Yu's hand and ate them.
Xiao Yu was still a little dissatisfied, and pulled Hua Jinse to a stone table and sat down.
Xiao Yifeng and Yu Luming, you look at me, I look at you. walked towards Xiao Yu side by side, and each found a stone pier to sit down.
Xiao Yifeng pondered for a moment and decided to explain what happened last night to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu listened to Xiao Yu's explanation silently, but it was in his expectation.
"Who are those troublemakers?" Xiao Yu was silent for a while before asking.
Yu Luming took Xiao Yu's words and said, "One is the second son of Zhang Shilang, and the other two are the sons-in-law of the Hubu Shangshu family."
Xiao Yu lowered his eyes and thought about the situation of the two families for a while. They are all inconspicuous characters in the court, and they can't find any big mistakes in their personalities.
I can't do anything that I want to do to spread those rumors. After all, as soon as something like this happens, the first person to be suspected is the person who made trouble last night.
Xiao Yu actually thought well, as soon as this happened. Zhang Shilang and Tobe Shangshu were in a hurry. I'm afraid that the one in the palace will be careless, and he will be suspicious of his own head.
"You unfilial son! On weekdays, it's okay to look for flowers and ask willows, and he didn't have a long time to collide with King Ding. Now our family is involved in the rumors!" Zhang Shilang copied a stick, ignored his wife's obstruction, and slammed it at his son.
Zhang Gongzi knelt motionless in the ancestral hall with his head down, allowing Zhang Shilang to scold angrily.
The situation in the Hubu Shangshu Mansion is similar, but their family kneels not one, but two.
But fortunately, Xiao Yu suppressed the rumors in time, and mentioned everyone in the palace again, so that those words did not reach Xiao Weichi's ears.
Later, Xiao Yifeng left with a sigh of relief. Leaving Lu Ming and Xiao Yu to drink for the moon.
Hua Jinse left early, because all the people present were men, and she was an unmarried girl, and it was not good to stay for a long time.
Yu Luming raised his head and drank the wine in the cup and put the cup on the stone table.
Xiao Yu put down the wine cup in his hand and looked sideways at Yu Luming.
He knew he had something to say.
Although Yu Luming usually looks like Xiao Yifeng, he is a gentleman, and he is not in tune. But in fact, Xiao Yu knows very well that Yu Luming is not like Xiao Yifeng who is a frank and scheming person. On the contrary, because of the restlessness of his family since he was a child, Yu Luming knew how to disguise himself very early, and he was quite urban.
"I think it's very likely that the assassin you met first and the person who spread the rumors this time are the same people." Yu Luming was a little sure in his words.
Xiao Yu played with the wine cup and asked, "How can you see it?"
"Because their purpose is to destroy you." A hint of fierceness flashed in Yu Luming's eyes.
Xiao Yu paused for a moment and smiled slowly, "According to Chang Yuan's meaning, these people were sent by King Ping's side. ”
Yu Luming nodded lightly.
Today's saints still have no children, and if it is a hundred years later, I am afraid that the successor will be one of their princes.
"Actually, I guessed what you said at the time, but I still have a suspicion." Xiao Yu stared at Yu Luming and said, "Do you remember the assassination I encountered a year ago?"
Yu Luming was stunned, his eyes were full of anger. A year ago, Xiao Yu happened to be ordered to go out. Unexpectedly, on the way back, he encountered an assassination, coupled with the backlash of the people around him, Xiao Yu was almost seriously injured.
This incident made Yu Luming and Xiao Yifeng linger for a long time, and they each sent someone to investigate, but there has been no result so far.
"Ah Jin, what do you mean......" Yu Luming asked cautiously.
"Mingqi, Dongyu have it all."
Yu Luming was shocked, and Ming Qi was involved. I'm afraid this matter can't be dealt with simply.
Xiao Yu picked up the wine glass, brought it to his lips, and drank the residual wine in the glass.
Well, something sweet. I went back and brought a jar to Jin'er, looking forward to Jin'er's appearance when she was drunk.
A certain man who cared about Hua Jinse ignored Lu Ming's worried eyes when he looked at him, but thought about how to coax Hua Jinse to drink.
After a while, Xiao Yu spoke slowly, as if it was not him who was assassinated, but someone else.
"A few days ago, Jin'er told me that someone used her senior brother to blackmail her and Eleven to take my life. And that person is most likely Mingqi's person. And none of our people can find out the whereabouts of those people, there are only two possibilities. One is that the person is very deeply hidden, and the other is that they are not Dongyu's people. ”
Yu Luming thought for a while and nodded.
Also, according to the power of the three of them, there are still people who can't be found, and there are only those possibilities.
Yu Luming thought for a while and asked, "Then do you want to tell Ziqing about this?"
Xiao Yu shook his head, "Don't tell him yet." Otherwise, according to his temper, knowing that there are people from Ming Qi in the middle, I am afraid that he will not give the envoys on Ming Qi's side a good look. ”
Yu Luming responded, drank a few glasses of wine with Xiao Yu, and left.
Xiao Yu drank the rest of the wine alone, thought for a while and ordered someone to go to the wine cellar to find a jar of wine with a low degree, and then went to Hanxiang Xiaozhu to find Hua Jinse.
It's really not seen for a day, like every three autumns. He and Jin'er hadn't seen each other for a few hours, like a quarter apart.
Hua Jinse, who is also a loss, can't hear what he is saying, otherwise he will be clingy again.
It was still early, Hua Jinse just moved a chair out, feeling the coolness brought by the evening breeze while reading the medical skills.
When Xiao Yu came, he happened to see Hua Jinse reading seriously under the candlelight.
Hua Jinse felt that someone was coming, raised his eyes to look, and saw Xiao Yu carrying a jar of wine, looking at her without blinking.
"Nerd." Hua Jinse couldn't help but laugh and scolded.
The years are quiet, and that's probably what it looks like.
Xiao Yu didn't mind the appearance of his talent at all, let Hua Jinse look at it, and looked at Hua Jinse generously.
"Jin'er, do you like wine?" Xiao Yu put the jar of wine on the tether and asked expectantly.
Hua Jinse naturally didn't miss the little joy flickering in his eyes, and refused without thinking about it at the moment.
"I don't like it."
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.
Xiao Yu was a little injured, drooped his head, and silently looked at Hua Jinse's medical book in front of him.
Well, it's the one that Feng Junran gave to Jin'er.
Xiao Yu was even more uncomfortable, and leaned his head on Hua Jinse's shoulder step by step. Until she smelled the cold medicinal fragrance, Xiao Yucai felt a little comforted.
Hua Jinse glanced at someone who looked like a large dog, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned upward.
Such a day, she wants to live for the rest of her life.
The lights jumped, and the warm candlelight reflected the jade-like two, adding a bit of warmth.
In the past few days, several envoys of Ming Qi have been very quiet, except for going into the palace to discuss some things with Xiao Weichi when necessary, they have been hiding in their rooms for the rest of the time and not going out.
But a certain princess is a different matter, Dongfang Rou has been very active in recent days. I have come into contact with many good young people in the city, and I have even participated in a lot of parties held with some young ladies. Among them, the closest contact is Xiao Rulin, the king of Ping.
Soon after, the envoys of Ming Qi entered the palace again with the intention of discussing marriage.
Listening to the people in the palace, the envoys of Ming Qi looked good when they came out.
So the people in the city once again speculated whether the princess who came from Ming Qi had already chosen a husband. I came to the palace to ask for Xiao Weichi's holy decree.
It's just that the specific son is chosen, which is to be discussed.
However, everyone unanimously feels that Xiao Rulin has a better chance of being elected. After all, everyone has seen what Dongfang Rou has done in recent days. In addition, Xiao Rulin's identity and status are transcendent, and it is not unreasonable that Dongfang Rou will choose to have more contact with him these days.
"Several adults have worked hard today." By the time Mingqi's envoy returned to her residence, Dongfang Rou was already waiting there, and the coquettish words spat out from between her rosy lips.
Several envoys hurriedly straightened up and said, "Don't dare to take credit, everything is ordered by His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Hearing the prince's son at first glance, Dongfang Rou's eyes flickered, both fearful and fascinated.
In the end, Dongfang Rou smiled and said some compliments to the envoys, and then walked towards his courtyard with a few servant girls who were waiting with him.
The next day, Xiao Weichi ordered someone to issue a holy decree.
Unsurprisingly, the marriage partner is Dongfang Rou and Xiao Rulin.
The two of them knelt down at the same time and listened to the eunuch read it.
The meaning of the decree was to praise them, and then he gave them some treasures.
