Text Chapter 138 Serving tea and sending guests

Just as the people of Nian Qingcheng were silent in the fact that *Derge was going to open the altar to preach, and were eagerly discussing in the streets and alleys who would be the hot candidate for this year's selection of saints, a topic that began to spread among only a few people, and then gradually expanded to become a topic that everyone could eagerly discuss, but brought a touch of strangeness to this lively and peaceful atmosphere - the popular saint woman, Princess Yuqing, who was regarded as a national treasure by the people of Dayue, was placed under house arrest!

Although this topic has been delivered to the mother of the Yue Kingdom at the beginning, the so-called house arrest rumors are based on two things: first, since returning from the envoy to Shu, the princess has never appeared in public again - but there are news from people in the inner palace that no one has seen Princess Yuqing even in the palace now; Second, the princess was forcibly forbidden to act without permission by the mother of the country because she opposed the marriage with the prince of the silver bottle, which also explains why the original news of the marriage was announced, but now it has become a sermon.

After careful consideration, these reasons are all in line with two basic facts: Princess Yuqing has not shown up so far; Princess Yuqing objected to her marriage to the prince of the Silver Vase King. But the mother of Yue Guo thought that this was just Xizhou and his party looking for some trouble for themselves and putting pressure through public opinion, so they didn't need to pay attention to it, they just needed to let the princess go out for a walk, and the rumors would be broken.

She has that confidence, and under normal circumstances, it's the right thing to do.

However, in the afternoon of the same day, a piece of news from the palace made her very frightened: Princess Yuqing was gone!

It's not about being attacked or fleeing on your own, it's about saying that you can't see it. According to the maidservant, who was in charge of the princess's daily life, she saw the princess in the courtyard in a thoughtful daze in the morning, so she did not bother for long, and they left one after another before noon, but when they went again in the afternoon, the building was already empty.

"Who's been in and out lately?" Listening to the frightened reports of the three maidservants below, the mother of Yue Guo felt irritable in her heart, but she did not show it at this time, but asked with anger in her heart.

"No, the slave hasn't seen it......" the expected answer!

Listening to these people's answers, a light man next to him said: "If an ordinary master enters and exits, they may not be able to see it, let alone if the other party is a top master!" ”

His seemingly understated sentence made the three maids very grateful: others couldn't ask Bai Gongzi to say a good word, but he didn't expect him to take the initiative to help the three of them at this time, he was really flattered!

"Yu'e, what do you think?" Hearing the man's words, the mother of Yue Guo was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes coldly glanced at the three kneeling people, and her eyes became much gentler, and she looked at him.

This man is naturally Bai Yue, the prince of the Silver Vase King. Although there was still resistance in his heart, he had no choice but to twist his father's harsh words, so he had to dress up carefully and postpone entering the palace until the afternoon to see this old woman—a beautiful woman like a blooming flower in the eyes of others, no different from dirty garbage in the eyes of Bai Yu'e.

However, everything still needs to be acted. He was looking forward to hearing the news about his marriage to Princess Yuqing last night, so the day of becoming a colt and flying with the first beauty of Dayue is not far off, who knows that his father will have to wait a little longer when he comes home and tells him about it! And the reason turned out to be that the king of the silver bottle sent someone to retrieve it early and sent it to the *Derge on the road to sign the marriage letter as a signator, but it was gone!

The person in charge of delivering the marriage letter should be called Dark Ten, who has been cut off at this time and is staying in a pigsty somewhere in the city like a pig! This is the punishment he deserves......

Thinking secretly angrily in his heart, he was already guessing who would take the marriage certificate—and the reason for the disappearance of Princess Ruyuqing might be the same......

"I guess either the people in Xizhou did it, or it was the people in *Derge." Swinging off the three maids who were paralyzed to the ground in fright, he walked up to the mother of the country and gently took her hand.

"Won't it be Zhengyang?" With a slight flush on her face, the mother of Yue Guo still asked curiously.

"If you look at it from the marriage book or today's incident, the monarch is suspicious of this, but I think the two things are related, and the only ones who have a stake in these two things are Xizhou people and *Dege." He frowned slightly, hiding the disgusting emotions that had just flashed in his thoughts with a thoughtful look, and gently scratched the cheek of the beautiful woman in front of him.

It's so slippery! sighed in his heart, but he was always disgusted that this person's age, identity and behavior were so incompatible.

Filthy!

"That'...... How's that to be? Although in her heart she doesn't like her daughter, who has a younger and more beautiful appearance than herself, she can't ignore the current public opinion.

"This matter is not suitable for big publicity at the moment, so I can only send more people around me to check secretly, mainly on the side of *Derge and the side of Binshe where the Xizhou people live. But ......" Speaking of this, he hesitated slightly, as if he didn't know whether to say something or not.

"You just say it, don't worry about anything." Seeing that she was embarrassed by the words of the person she wanted, she said with relief.

"It's just that I'm worried." Bai Yu'e smiled, wiped away the trace of smugness in his eyes without a trace, and said: "I have come into contact with that group of people in Xizhou, and all of them are extraordinary, so if you want to send someone to keep an eye on them, you must also be careful." ”

"Well, I see...... Yu Er really thinks about me in everything......" With joy in her heart, she leaned her body tightly towards Bai Yu Er and said softly.

Strictly speaking, Wen Mingxian should be the third time this time. In the early days, he was a minister of rites, and later he was a minister of letters, and when he was supposed to retire, he was appointed by the former Maharaja as the teacher of Kim Jong Yang and served as the emperor's teacher. thought that he should retire after the new monarch succeeded to the throne, but unexpectedly, the monarch begged the teacher to continue to serve as the minister of literature on the grounds that there was no credible person around him.

Although a hundred people are reluctant in their hearts, after all, the Maharaja was taught and raised by himself, and in terms of the relationship between the two, he is sometimes more like the grandfather and grandson of ordinary people - of course, he has never told anyone about this idea, and once it is made public, then he will have no choice but to die!

However, the sage said, "To be old and not die is to be a thief." He himself also understands that it is difficult to do anything with his current situation, and he is really a little uneasy to occupy this position, and he has been carefully observing the younger generation for a long time, and found that there are a few people who are still quite good - and the best one is Bai Keqi, who has now been demoted to the Ministry of Rites!

If the peace talks between Dayue and Xizhou go well, I should meet this young man, after all, I was kicked by myself for some reason, and there should still be a little resentment in my heart!

Shaking his head with a wry smile, he shouted in his heart, "It's hard to say, it's hard to say!" ”

However, cultivating a successor is not his biggest headache at the moment, his biggest headache now is the two people who have been relying on him since coming to his house this morning.

One of them is the flower hating willow. Although he didn't have much contact with the young man, he had a keen sense of his potential—at least until this morning. Now, the idea is a little shaken, and he's considering whether to add the word "bold."

Looking at Hua Hate Liu, who was sitting opposite him smiling and silent, he was even more convinced in his heart: Maybe the words "lustful and cowardly" are more appropriate!

"Look at what I said...... Seeing Wen Mingxian's face softened slightly, he must have felt much more comfortable after scolding himself just now, Hua Hate Liu asked with a smile.

"Don't think!" It's okay not to mention it, but as soon as he mentioned it, Wen Mingxian's anger that had been reduced was rekindled, and he opened his mouth and scolded angrily before Hua Hate Liu finished speaking.

"Oh, my lord......" Hua hated Liu smiled bitterly, thinking that Yang Jian really shouldn't have recited Princess Yuqing in broad daylight. Stealing people" is okay, being a thief during the day is already bold, and the person who stole is still a princess of a country, do you think you have no brains......

"You see I've sent all the people, I can't send them back, right? What do you say if you let Yuqing go back...... "Since you can't ask directly, then play a dozen warm cards and give it a try, the old man will always indulge the young man."

"Little old man doesn't care!" As if he could see the plan of Hua Hate Liu, this serious old man on weekdays rolled his eyes, played a trick, and couldn't help but prepare a rhetoric Hua Hate Liu was speechless.

"Boss, if the Lord knew about this matter, he would agree......"

"He dares!" Hearing this, the old man's eyes widened, "If he dares, don't say that he is a king, that is, the reincarnation of a saint, and the little old man will rush forward and slap him twice!" ”

"Uh......" wanted to press him as a king, but unexpectedly, the old man was even more ruthless, and directly moved the saint out as a target, and Hua Hate Liu couldn't help but secretly praise "old fox"!

"So are you really refusing to take me in?" With a roll of her eyes, Hua Hate Liu suddenly thought of something, and secretly smiled and thought about it.

"No!" While talking, the old man picked up the tea and pretended to take a sip, which was exactly the posture of "serving tea to guests".

"So, then I have to say goodbye......" Hua Hate Liu sighed and got up and walked out.

This crisp action made Wen Mingxian's movements stiffen: So easy to dismiss? Is it the reason why the old man refused too directly and had a tough attitude? Thinking in his heart, his eyes caught a glimpse of Hua Hate Liu suddenly stopped, and he immediately made a nonchalant look again.

"Oh, by the way, I have a question for the boss." Hua Hate Liu smiled and bowed to Wen Mingxian.

"If you have something to say, talk quickly, and leave quickly!"

"I don't know if you know where the Baike Chess Mansion is? I had a life-saving grace for him at first, and I came with him all the way, and we talked very happily and had a very good relationship, and I guess it would be easier to find him to do this...... "Without waiting for the other party to ask, Hua Hate Liu honestly told him his plan, which is nothing more than two reasons: Since you don't accept it, I will go to Bai Keqi; I've already told you that I'm going to go to Bai Keqi, whether to connive at it or report it to you right away!

"You ......" Wen Mingxian knew that what Hua hated Liu was only to retreat and encircle Wei to save Zhao! However, while he was annoyed, he was also very relieved: he really didn't see the wrong person - he didn't misread Hua Hate Liu or Bai Keqi, but he didn't know who he was referring to.

"Get out!" Waving his hand, he sighed softly.

"Huh?" Hua Hate Liu's face stiffened: Isn't it useful? It stands to reason that this old man should be shouting to stop himself in a panic, and maybe he even asked him to hide Princess Yuqing in his mansion...... However, how to interpret this sentence "get out......

"Why are you stunned?" Wen Mingxian saw that Hua hated Liu with a sluggish face, and he was very proud in his heart: finally let the little old man breathe a bad breath!

"You, get out! People, stay! Pointing at Hua Hate Liu, and then pointing outside, Wen Mingxian scolded angrily.

"This is ......" Hua Hate Liu understood what Wen Mingxian was referring to in an instant, and immediately smiled and said: "Okay, haha, I'll get out!" Thank you, sir! ”

Wen Mingxian didn't say much, and when he picked up the teacup and was about to take another sip, he found that the last bit of tea had been drunk by himself when he was pretending, and immediately shouted unceremoniously: "Send off!" ”
