Chapter 53: Lu Rui's suspicions

After Li Qing had a little dinner, she was accompanied by Wang Yun'er and Mu Li back to the bedroom, Li Qing looked at Wang Yun'er with a smile, snorted in her nose, turned around and asked Yang Hao: "Is this Mrs. Zun." Wang Yun'er took the first step to clarify her identity, Li Qing also had a relationship with Meng Bochang, and hurriedly helped Wang Yun'er up, and said: "I have also heard a little about Bochang, and I pity you orphans and widows." He asked Wang Yun'er again: "Why don't you go back to your hometown, if you don't have a husband, don't you have your parents?" Wang Yuner replied: "My parents are old and sick, and I don't want them to worry about me anymore." ”

Li Qing nodded, looked at Yang Hao with a smile in her slanted eyes, and only snorted for a long time, she turned to Wang Yun'er and said, "The child is still too young, you go back, there are enough Lan Yu and Mu Li here, if I have time tomorrow, I will go to see you." Wang Yun'er raised her eyes and looked at Yang Hao, then she lowered her head and withdrew, and after walking a short distance, Yang Hao chased after her, walked side by side with her, and smiled apologetically: "You ran away in vain." Wang Yun'er pursed her lips and smiled, shook her head and said: "It's nothing for me to run, but it's not a trivial matter to anger the princess, I think it's more appropriate for you to let your younger brothers and sisters come, let me come to the courtesy." ”

Yang Hao sighed and said: "I can't hide it, she came to Feng'an this time, and there are no more than ten people who know it, I can't tell them this." Hearing this, Wang Yun'er silently lowered her head, and walked through a path full of flowers, at the end of which was a half-moon-shaped small stone bridge, and at the end of the bridge was the bamboo forest house where Wang Yun'er lived.

The two of them stood on their feet at the same time, and Wang Yun'er said, "It's late, you go back and be careful." Yang Hao smiled: "Don't worry, my eyes are bright." Then he stood at the head of the bridge and saw Wang Yuner board the stone bridge and walked to the Bamboo Forest Retreat, followed by Yang Hao Zhang Xiao and Wu Zhang, the two of them were clever and capable, and their fists and feet were good, but there was one thing that made Yang Hao dissatisfied: both of them talked a lot, Yang Hao watched Wang Yun'er go back to the Bamboo Forest Retreat for a while, and the two of them chatted happily.

Zhang Xiaodao: "Did you see it, it's the three ladies, and the adults haven't sent it like this, if I were her, I wouldn't have done that." ”

Wu Zhang said: "What do you know, this is called wanting to capture the old indulgence, and this shelf should still be held when it should be held." ”

Zhang Xiaodao: "Forget about the front-end shelf, it's different, Her Royal Highness the princess has come to Feng'an, and if this shelf goes down again, I'm afraid ...... Just a bamboo basket to fetch water. ”

Wu Zhang said: "In the opinion of a fool, isn't marrying a princess looking for his own guilt, even if he looks like a fairy, he can't marry, he can't marry." ”

Zhang Xiao sneered: "You said that if you can't marry, you can't marry, if I have this opportunity, I will marry a princess and go home, just a woman, is it so difficult to serve." ”

Wu Zhang also sneered: "Women are easy to serve, which is the eldest lady, second lady, and third lady, and you have forgotten how many times you have been scolded." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiao sighed helplessly: "What kind of world is this, will the children of the poor family never come out." Wu Zhang stepped on him fiercely, and glanced at him, signaling Yang Hao to be behind him, Zhang Xiao understood, and turned around without saying a word, Yang Hao was standing two feet away from him, he undoubtedly heard what he said just now, Zhang Xiao's scalp exploded, I don't know what this sentence will bring for himself,

Yang Hao coughed and asked Zhang Xiao with a smile: "Didn't I say that in the future, all military merits will be rewarded to official positions, and if you have an official position, you will not be able to afford it, you feel so emotional, because you have no confidence in yourself." Zhang Xiao hurriedly defended: "I didn't mean that, it's really peaceful now, and there is no battle to fight." ”

Yang Hao said: "You remember, stay in the garden, here, this is the battlefield, guard this place, I will remember it for you." Zhang Xiao couldn't understand what Yang Hao's words meant because he was nervous, but Wu Zhang heard it and shouted loudly: "People are in the garden, and subordinates will never disappoint the general's expectations." Yang Hao nodded with satisfaction, Zhang Xiao also understood at this time, but there was no chance to speak to show his loyalty.

The left mansion has three murderous blades of chasing the wind, hiding armor and cutting flags, and the inner temple has two pairs of red and black shields, the red shield is adapted from the original scarlet whistle, which combines the characteristics of the golden sword guard and dragoon guard in the Daming Palace, and the guards are first-class in foot war and horse warfare, and the number of red shields is nearly 100 people, mainly responsible for the vigilance of the outer layer of the station; The number of black shields is only half of that of red shields, wearing civilian clothes, responsible for the personal guards of important people, Zhang Lang, Li Wei, Zhang Xiao, Wu Zhang and others act as both guards and attendants, and are not among the red and black shields.

Yang Hao inspected the defense deployment everywhere, most of the elite of the inner temple was here, the commander made Zhu Qi lead the red shield to be responsible for the external guards, and the palm print Mu Li was with him to protect Li Qing's safety, Yang Hao was very satisfied with the result, but when he was leaving, he suddenly thought of one more thing, so he called Zhang Lang over, took down the jade talisman and said: "Take this talisman to the fire camp, and order General Sui Yuan to lead a sentry outside the north gate of the park to stay in the garden, and you are not allowed to enter the park without my order." ”

When Yang Hao returned to the inner study, it was already the middle of the year, and the people were already sleepy, and they wanted to take a cold shower to deal with the official documents accumulated in the afternoon and go to sleep, but the courtyard heard the laughter of Lu Rui and Mu Tong in the room, Mu Tong just told Lu Rui a joke, and Lu Rui laughed, Mu Tong was eloquent, elegant, very humorous, and very pleasing to girls, usually he liked to laugh with the female secretary and maids in the inner study, and his words were hot and provocative, Yang Hao never felt that there was anything wrongBut tonight, his anger suddenly rose,

"Boom." Yang Hao almost kicked open the half of the door,

The two jumped out of their chairs almost at the same time, one on the south side of the table and the other on the north side of the table, keeping a considerable distance from each other.

"My lord, this is the secret report that has just been sent back."

Mu Tong obviously knew the meaning of Yang Hao slamming the door open, there was no trace of uneasiness on his face, he looked very calm, the secret report was sent by the Zuo Mansion, it was a report on the whereabouts of Jin Taoyin and twenty-one Huayi Wei, Yang Hao had explained to Mu Tong, and after receiving this information, he had to report to himself at any time without delay, which would well explain why he was still in his study so late.

Lu Rui appeared in his study at this time, but it was a little unexpected by Yang Hao, after signing and approving his opinion on the secret report, Mu Tong retreated with interest, and took the door with him when he left.

"What are you busy with, hiding from people all day." Lu Rui seemed to ask casually, his confused gaze hooked Yang Hao's eyes, and he added: "Manly man, don't lie when you speak." ”

"You know something." Yang Hao asked quietly, Lu Rui smiled proudly, with a mastered posture, but these could not be hidden from Yang Hao's eyes, after observing Yang Hao, Yang Hao could be sure that Lu Rui had some doubts about the things in the Lingering Garden, but she didn't figure out what happened inside, let alone know who lived inside,

When the Lingering Garden was just confiscated, Lu Rui, Qing'er, and Xiaoyu had gone to see it, and the Lingering Garden at that time seemed a little dilapidated, because the maids and servants were dismissed, and the garden was full of leaves and bird droppings, but the surface of the dilapidation and depression could not hide its inner shimmering quality, Lu Rui liked it at a glance, she wanted to move to the Lingering Garden to live, the interior of the Lingering Garden was roughly divided into three areas, and there were also three people on their side, one living in one area, which not only maintained relative independence, but also did not delay the exchanges between each other,

It's a pity that Lu Rui's proposal was opposed by Qing'er and Xiaoyu, Qing'er thought that the Liuyuan was too big and too luxurious, so she refused to move, Xiaoyu complained that the Liuyuan was too far away from the Defense Embassy, and Yang Hao liked to review official documents at night, so because it was too far away, he had more reasons not to come back to bed, and he couldn't go to the inner study to serve tea and pour water for him, Lu Rui couldn't convince the two, and the plan to move the Liuyuan died like this.

Although she couldn't move in, Lu Rui's heart never forgot the patches of green forests and bamboos, ponds and marshes, so she was very sensitive to all the news about the Lingering Garden.

Yang Hao hasn't been to her for a while, and always says that he is busy with official business, so Lu Rui asked the kitchen to boil some millet porridge, added sugar, and sent it to Yang Hao for supper.

Unexpectedly, Yang Hao was not in the house, Lu Rui was waiting for him while helping him pack his things, at this time Mu Tong rushed back, not long ago he went to the Zuo Mansion to get information, originally he was supposed to lock the door, and he forgot about it for a while, and when he saw Lu Rui standing behind Yang Hao's official case and looking through a secret document, Mu Tong was so frightened that his soul flew away,

Yang Hao explained more than once that his inner study is a heavy place, and someone must not leave an inch, outsiders, including Qing'er, must not stay alone in the inner study, if Yang Hao knows that he forgot to lock it when he goes out, and let Lu Rui look through the secret documents there, wouldn't he immediately be in trouble.

But who is Lu Rui, how dare Mu Tong offend her, Mu Tong's brain is enough, he hurriedly thanked Lu Rui and said: "Thank you, madam, adults hate the mess in the study the most, this is coming back soon, if you let the adults see it, I will be scolded again, and the lady who lost it will help, it is really my benefactor." ”

Mu Tong said while busy cleaning up the official documents and secret documents on the official case, Lu Rui was naturally embarrassed not to hand over the secret documents in her hand, and she herself was "invited" by Mu Tong to the conference room to serve tea, Mu Tong was very proud in her heart, the witticisms in her mouth came out again and again, and the jokes shook out one after another, Lu Rui was amused by him and laughed.

During the conversation, Lu Rui asked where Yang Hao was, Mu Tong blushed and smiled: "Madame, don't ask, I don't dare to say if I ask, this is a taboo thing." Mu Tong kept looking in the southwest direction when he spoke, and with a woman's unique intuition, Lu Rui immediately came to a conclusion: There must be a VIP living in the Lingering Garden, and this person must be a woman, and her husband went to see this woman, Lu Rui kept holding back, talking and laughing with Mu Tong until Yang Hao came back,

"I don't know anything, would you like to tell me where you've been." Lu Rui's face was unusually calm,

"I just came back from the Lingering Garden, and it was for business." Yang Hao smiled a little unnaturally,

Lu Rui bit her lip gently: "It's really for business, not for anything else." ”

"Then what do you say I'm for?" Yang Hao laughed, but he was beating a drum in his heart, he reached out to pull Lu Rui's hand, but she avoided it indifferently,

"Woman." Lu Rui replied unceremoniously, and his face was suddenly covered with a layer of frost,
