Chapter 41: The Envoy of Nantian (7)
"Your Royal Highness Princess, the third prince has sent another letter."
The cardinal held the tray and went into Qingluan's residence to return.
Huyan Qingluan was embroidering, and frowned slightly when he heard this, but still said, "Put it there." ”
The cardinal saw her displeasure and asked directly:
"If Her Royal Highness doesn't like it, why don't you reject him?"
Huyan Qingluan took a needle and thread in his hand and pricked his fingers. Dark red beads of blood oozed from the tender white fingers.
But what frightened the cardinal the most was her eyes, that desperate look, she knelt down and pleaded guilty: "It's the slave who has a lot of trouble!" ”
Huyan Qingluan gently wiped the drop of blood, and the black shadow outside the window flashed, and a note silently appeared in the crack of the window
She walked over, picked it up and took a look, and sure enough, she was urging her to have more contact with Ming Yuanhou.
Heh, Ming Yuanhou's kind of ice mound, it's useless no matter how many times you contact it! She threw the note into the brazier, watched it burn to ashes, and then said:
"Get up, Cardinal. Go and prepare the carriage and horses...... Since the moment I came to Dazhou, I can't make my own decisions about everything. ”
The cardinal stood up, and the voice behind him loomed as if it were an answer to her, and as if it were talking to herself.
Yes, who can be the master, even she, a little maid, is the work of the regent. What's more, how could this princess, who was originally meant to marry, escape the control of power.
In the room, Huyan Qingluan touched his face with his sleeve and unfolded the letter sent by the third son.
The letter is still one of those love poems that can make the watchman's big teeth laugh off, and the box is layered on top of each other, all of which are flaming red maple leaves with vassal elegance. Seeing that it was still intact, the person who thought it was a monitor was also annoyed, and he didn't look at it carefully.
After all, the third prince sent a whole bag of red beans the day before yesterday. The day before yesterday, a peacock feather cape was delivered. Yesterday I sent a box of rice-sized mixed color Dongzhu. If they all go through it, I'm afraid their eyes will have to be cross-eyed.
She poured all the maple leaves on the table, fumbled a little, tore the flannel on the bottom of the box, the flannel was double-layered, and she took out the piece of plain brocade that was as thin as a cicada's wings. Restore the box.
In the lobby of the restaurant, Song Yiyao suddenly remembered something.
Yesterday, Ayayou seemed to say, An Heng may like her?
When she was drunk, she didn't have enough brains and didn't take it seriously, but now that she thinks about it, her heart is really a little hanging.
"What is Lord Song thinking?" Hu Yanqingluan leaned over curiously and waved his hand in front of Song Yiyao's face who was empty-minded.
The cardinal followed her, pouring cup by cup of tea.
"Recently, the criminal department has been busy." Tang Jingruo explained to her lightly. Although he did not believe in this reason.
"What's wrong?" Song Yiyao came back to his senses and saw Qingluan's face, which had been magnified several times, startled, and asked embarrassedly.
Qingluan sat back in his place and lowered his head aggrievedly:
Qingluan was idle in the hotel, so he thought of coming to visit Lord Song, and by the way, he asked Lord Song to accompany him. After all, I don't know the place of life in the Imperial City, but I don't seem to be very happy to look at Lord Song? ”
really loves acting, Song Yiyao really wants to roll her eyes, but this is a task assigned by the emperor, and she has to be fooled. She let out a long sigh, perfunctorily cheered up, and her eyes widened:
"What's the matter, it's a beautiful thing to accompany Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I'm happy to do it. However, wherever Her Royal Highness the princess wants to go, the three princes should be more familiar with it than me. ”
Seeing him talking nonsense with his eyes open, Hu Yanqingluan smiled even more happily. Flirting with Lord Song every day can make people feel happy.
At the beginning, as soon as people drift away, it is easy to be bold, and Huyan Qingluan directly led the topic to the little marquis:
"The third prince is familiar with it, but he can't bring the little marquis!"
"Then in that case, wouldn't it be better for you to invite the little marquis directly?" Everybody is sitting next to them! It's not that I can't hear it. Song Yiyao gestured to Tang Jingruo, who had been accompanying the Red Regiment on the side.
"Meow woo woo woo ~ "
The red group lay on Tang Jingruo's lap, lowered his head and whimpered quietly, he had long been accustomed to it jumping around and causing trouble, and Song Yiyao was a little distressed when he looked at it with a timid little appearance.
But she looked around and found nothing.
Tang Jingruo, who was listening to the two of them, nodded cooperatively:
"Next time, if His Royal Highness Qingluan wants to find me, you can say it directly."
Huyan Qingluan approached in surprise and asked:
"Will the little marquis come out alone with me?"
Tang Jingruo's expression remained unchanged, calmly reassuring the red group:
"Of course, no."
Sure enough, the little marquis who always treats people equally in this matter, watching Huyan Qingluan being scolded, Song Yiyao suddenly felt comfortable, took a sip of tea, and suddenly understood why Huyan Qingluan loved her. This bad feeling, not bad!
The smile on Huyan Qingluan's lips froze, and he lowered his head with red eyes:
"Qingluan thinks that the meaning he expressed is already obvious, little marquis, you really, no"
A sentence or two could be faintly heard around him, and without exception, he reaped the angry glaring of the cardinals.
Tang Jingruo still had that indifferent expression, as if he couldn't see any beauty crying at all. He replied without raising his head:
"No, no, no."
To do a full set of plays, Hu Yanqingluan gently pulled out the handkerchief in his sleeve, and before he put it on his face, tears flowed uncontrollably. The handkerchief under the table was quickly stuffed back into her sleeve and replaced with a new one to wipe her tears, and she was still asking unrelentingly on the table:
"Why? What's wrong with Qingluan? ”
"It's none of your business."
Tang Jingruo explained kindly. Although this explanation is the same as no explanation.
After staring at the cardinal, he found that His Royal Highness the princess was crying, and he didn't have time to get angry, so he hurriedly persuaded in a low voice: "Your Palace, Miss, don't be sad." There are so many young talents in Da Zhou, why hang yourself on this tree! ”
Ignore the faint hint of ginger in the air. Song Yiyao sincerely admires her acting skills that send and receive freely.
Because it coincides with the meal, business is booming in the restaurant. Otherwise, they wouldn't be sitting in the lobby.
Originally, the high appearance and status of several people were very attractive, coupled with this kind of ruthless drama of falling flowers. For a while, people who came and went were talking.
Even upstairs there were people who came out curiously to look, "What's the matter?" ”
"It's a mistake." The graceful woman replied with a free sip. Why did the man downstairs with his back to this side look so much like her apprentice? She thought only for a moment before rejecting the idea. After all, her good apprentice should be in the Criminal Department now. I won't come out to hang out and get involved in this kind of thing.
At this voice, Song Yiyao turned his head back and up, and paused, why does the one upstairs look so much like her master?
This voice, coupled with this figure, and the speed of eating melon seeds, and the attribute of loving to watch the excitement so much, it must be her master!
She jerked to her feet and went straight to the second floor.
Huyan Qingluan and Tang Jingruo thought something was wrong. Hurriedly followed.
Daohua Zhenren found that he was exposed, and silently turned around and walked into the room, and the blinding charm in his hand was also released at the same time.
If someone keeps staring, they will find that the woman who was outstanding just now has disappeared at some point.
"Master" Song Yiyao didn't finish calling the master, and found that his own master, who was still eating melon seeds by the railing just now, was gone again!
She hurriedly asked the person next to her, "Have you seen the woman in blue who was standing here just now?" Where did she just go? ”
The man came back to his senses and replied, "Looks like you've entered that room?" ”
"Master!"
Song Yiyao pushed open the door, and a middle-aged man wearing an earthy yellow brocade robe with a big belly was eating, and was startled by the sound of opening the door, and asked, "Who are you?" ”
Seeing that he had found the wrong place, Song Yiyao's excited heart slowly calmed down, came back to his senses, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I found the wrong door."
The middle-aged man put down the chicken leg in his hand and pointed to the door: "It's okay, just go out and close the door." ”
Song Yiyao turned around as she said, and Tang Jingruo and Huyan Qingluan behind her had already followed.
"I recognized the wrong person."
Song Yiyao explained embarrassedly. She lowered her head, just in time to see the red group looking in the direction of the middle-aged man with full of wariness. There was awe in his eyes.
She took a step forward, looking lonely:
"Let's go. It should be that I miss Master too much, so I will be wrong. ”
When Daohua Zhenren heard this, his heart softened, and when he was thinking about whether to stop her, he heard a bang, the door was closed, and the person went out, but the one who should go out was still there. Not only that, but he also blocked the door with a stool.
Sure enough, you shouldn't be soft on this guy!
"Master, the apprentices have seen it, and there is no one else here, so you can remove the blindfold."
"What are you talking about? I don't understand it under listening. ”
The smile on the middle-aged man's face froze for a moment, but it still maintained.
Song Yiyao was not in a hurry, so he sat down at the stool.
"Master, you have exposed too much. You have changed into a middle-aged man dressed in the clothes of a businessman, how can a businessman of this age come to the restaurant to eat by himself. And the dishes on the table are all you like to eat. Don't pretend. ”
The middle-aged man simply put down his chopsticks, and his tone was vicious with impatience:
"What the hell are you talking about, I don't understand. I just want to have a meal in Ansheng, who says you can't come alone? ”
No matter how he refuted, Song Yiyao continued:
"There is no such rule, but if you are an ordinary person, how can the Red Regiment be in awe like this. And ordinary people in the Imperial City, how could they not know me and the little marquis. Master, you're pretending to be too much. Besides, you were in a hurry to sit down, and your chopsticks were reversed. And you."
Really, Daohua Zhenren fell into a moment of self-doubt, and immediately looked down. No, I got it right. Slowly, it's falling into the pit dug by this little fox again!
Now that she has been exposed, she simply lifted the blindfold and restored her original appearance. Liu raised his eyebrows and said:
"I haven't seen you for a few months, it seems that the good man has grown a little."
Song Yiyao smiled and saluted respectfully:
"That is, the apprentice must not lose the face of the master."
Daohua Zhenren patted the position next to him and motioned for her to sit down: "Do you know why I came back secretly?" ”
Song Yiyao poured her a cup of tea and handed it over: "In a few days, it will be my grandmother's birthday." Presumably, Master quietly came back to celebrate his grandmother's birthday. ”
Daohua Zhenren looked at her appreciatively and said:
"Yes, I was going to look for you in the evening, but I met you here first. The fate of our master and apprentice is really deep! ”
One is to deliberately make trouble, and the other is to look at the excitement when he is bored, and he coincidentally chose the most prosperous restaurant, maybe this is the fate in the mouth of Daohuazhen!
