Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Meaning of Concubine De
"You ——!" Cheng Qingwen's face flushed, and her bright eyes stared at the woman in front of her who had hair only over her shoulders and was messy, wearing plain clothes but smiling calmly, and didn't answer for a long time.
"But people are not sages of plants and trees, who is not learning and walking step by step? Dare to ask the county lord, if you meet a person, who knows martial arts and light skills, knows the number of scriptures, but is ruthless, hides a knife in his smile, separates relatives and friends, and harms loyalty and goodness in vain, how about it? Ruoyun asked with a smile, looking at the reaction on her face.
Cheng Qingwen's face was slightly pale, and she was speechless.
"I want to leave the king in high spirits, but I suddenly have a greedy heart, steal the king treasure knife and escape, strayed into the mountains, lead the two countries to fight a bloody war, harm the old king with hatred, and the people return to heaven, this evil heart suddenly rises, if there are a thousand will, what can you do?" If the words are beady, the words are still worshipped,
"If Yun Xie County Lord's grace of not killing, I can be allowed to live in the world, and I will have the opportunity to see the world, know good and evil, distinguish between right and wrong, and know my own ignorance."
She got up, and looked back at her with a calm and sincere gaze.
Cheng Qingwen was completely stunned, and at the end, her clear eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and she was already trembling and crying a little when she spoke again: "Do you know, my second brother is so indifferent, he has never said much, I have never seen him pay attention to anyone, nor have I deliberately expressed feelings to anyone." Since he was a child, he didn't smile much and didn't have a trace of sorrow, but he was sad for you, and for you to go to talk to Emperor Tianyi about the conditions, all for you......"
Cheng Qingwen said, wiped her tears with her sleeve, sniffed, she also heard the second brother praise Su Ruoyun for her strength, strategy and even courage. It's just that she can't appreciate this woman's good mind.
Ruoyun heard her talk like this, and froze for a moment:
He was for her. He's always been for her? It's all for her?
She, on the other hand, struggled, hesitated, and panicked. I'm afraid there will be any uncertainty in this relationship.
Fang just talked about the big truth, and now she herself is the most stupid person.
"Forget it, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have seen the second brother show such a gentle and heart-warming smile, alas......" Cheng Qingwen gradually calmed down, her eyes turned around and fell on her face, her eyes were clear, and said, "Su Ruoyun, I'll tell you." Since this is the case, I won't make my second brother sad, you can do it yourself, if one day you lose my second brother, I will not be able to spare you. ”
"The county lord, do I look like a person who tends to be inflammatory? Or, do I still have capital to be attached to it? Ruoyun sighed softly and raised the tips of her hair that was just over her shoulders to show her.
Cheng Qingwen's face was strange, and she glanced at her: "Say so." Do you remember the past? ”
"The county lord knows?" Ruoyun was really surprised this time.
"I only know a rough idea, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but you can listen to it." Cheng Qingwen said with a little bitterness.
Ruoyun smiled faintly and refused: "No." I'll find out later. ”
Since he had promised her, she wanted to wait for him to tell him about her past with him.
Cheng Qingwen nodded, and suddenly remembered something: "That's right." That Xiaohong, the eldest brother was going to pick her up and live with me temporarily. This girl is more stubborn than you, and she says that she has to wait for you to return home. I think she lived in the Rong Mansion. allowed her to accompany Rong Ying temporarily, but she was willing. ”
Cheng Qingwen said casually, Ruoyun was worried: "How is Xiaohong?" What did you say to her? ”
Thinking that she had been missing for a few months, Xiaohong must have been in a hurry, but she couldn't go to her openly.
"It is said that you made a wish on the Yuan Festival, and you want to go to a distant place to make a wish." Cheng Qingwen said in annoyance, this high-sounding excuse was said by the eldest brother, but she didn't intervene at all.
Xiaohong must not believe it, but this girl is smart, and Cheng Wangfu came forward in person, so she naturally knew that there were some things that she couldn't ask.
Ruoyun thought about it and said, "Why didn't she go back to Su Mansion?" ”
"Sufu? You don't know? Cheng Qingwen's eyes widened, and she looked surprised, "Since the accident on the Shangyuan Festival, as soon as Yu Baize left Beijing, Zhao Wuyang's dog legs are very arrogant. If it weren't for the fact that my eldest brother temporarily sent a monthly salary to let the servants and maids return home, this Su Mansion would not know how dangerous it is. ”
Ruoyun was stunned, she only blamed Bai Ze for responding to Cheng Qingxuan's desire to protect her and take her out of the capital, but she never expected that it was also to let her avoid the disaster, the capital was temporarily understaffed, and the attack was naturally impossible to prevent.
Thinking of that person, she couldn't help but be afraid: "This Zhao Wuyang is really just a high priest?" ”
Cheng Qingwen heard her ask, and suddenly took two steps closer, and her pink face was about to touch the tip of her nose, before she said softly: "Zhao Wuyang holds the twenty-eight Star Picking Pavilions in the whole day, and has all the secret scrolls of the magic methods of the Taishi Si Hakokan, and he is the only person in the eyes of the emperor who can contain my second brother for the time being, so the emperor is turning a blind eye to his actions, understand?" ”
Ruoyun nodded, and then shook it again: "Cheng Qingxuan is just an idle position, how can he provoke the emperor's eyes?" ”
Cheng Qingwen's voice was lower: "We are not Tianyi people, and we all have to listen to the second brother, so the second brother is our 'master'." ”
Ruoyun trembled: The prince who smiled softly with him and said that he wanted to marry her turned out to be the master of a royal family with a different surname?!
"Gee, I can't say much to you, really." Cheng Qingwen stomped her feet in annoyance, took her hand and dragged her out of the hospital, "Don't you want Xiaohong?" Sneak up on you, I'll take you there. ”
Her move successfully distracted Ruoyun's attention, not only because of Xiaohong, but also because she performed the light skills that everyone in the Cheng Wangfu was proud of, borrowed her hand power from speed, and easily lifted her to the roof.
The moon was dark and the stars were full, and the houses full of lamps were slightly dim.
The intermittent sound of the piano came from inside the house, and the lights on the porch illuminated no one to hide, but fortunately, there was a roof ridge to block it, and Cheng Qingwen and Ruoyun squatted on the roof without being seen.
"Don't look at it, it's Rong Ying inside, then Rong Yixuan didn't come back, otherwise there would have been news." Cheng Qingwen dragged her cheeks helplessly, pointed out unabashedly, and turned her head and sighed.
Su Ruoyun not only took care of Xiaohong, but also knew that she also wanted to make sure of Rong Yixuan's safety, so she pushed the boat down the river and generously asked her to "witness" that Rong Yixuan's residence was indeed dark and no one was there.
Ruoyun sat sullenly on the roof, listening to the sound of the piano and stopped abruptly.
"This ice silk string must be an impostor! It's broken again! An angry female voice rang out, followed by a crisp sound, as if something had fallen to the ground.
Ruoyun was stunned, knowing that Rong Ying was losing her temper, and leaned over to look, Rong Ying was pouting in the yard, and a crimson gauze brocade dress was set off by her walking back and forth.
"County Lord, you dissipate your anger, although you have a great victory, the prince will have to get an order to enter Beijing, I am afraid that it will take ten days and a half to return. No one will approve you in this situation, and you can't walk around. Xiao Cui's voice sounded immediately, but she was unhurried.
"Who rarely goes out to play! Isn't my brother the emperor able to go out the same? But...... But ......" Rong Ying was angry, and finally shouted loudly, "Cheng Qinghe doesn't know how to fight, what are you going to do on the front line!" Miss Ben doesn't even know who to call for anger! ”
"Ouch, county lord......" Xiao Cui couldn't help but sigh.
The two people on the roof looked at each other, Ruoyun couldn't help but laugh, and Cheng Qingwen had a dark face and a strange expression.
Relatively silent, a girl trotted all the way through the room, and then a row of bright lights appeared at the end of the corridor, and someone strode slowly and loudly.
When I got closer, I saw a woman with cherry lips and willow eyebrows, eyes that were not angry and self-threatening, slightly powdered, dressed in light yarn, although the pomp was not big, but every step was seriously walking, and before the person arrived, he had already spoken out first: "Is the county lord okay?" He stood still at the door.
If Yun heard this familiar voice and figure, wouldn't it be Concubine Lord in the night palace!
Rong Ying was still angry and angry, and at this moment she had already walked out with a smile on her face, and bowed slightly: "How can Concubine De have time to come to Rongwang's Mansion?" This side please. ”
Saying that, Xiaocui wanted to lead Concubine De to the hall.
Unexpectedly, Concubine De smiled and shook her head slowly: "This palace is specially out of the palace to visit the county lord on the order of the emperor, and now the county lord is fine, and the palace will not sit down, so I will leave." ”
Ruoyun was wondering, but when she saw Rong Ying retreating in understanding, the lantern palace maids who followed Concubine Lorde also retreated.
"Luo Niangniang went out of the palace just to see if I was there? I think you're bothering to ask the emperor's brother for a holy decree. Rong Ying lowered her tone coldly, looking uncomfortable.
"The county lord is too careful, and this time he left the palace was ordered by the emperor. The fast horse has arrived, the border pass is victorious, leaving the country and returning, and the emperor lacks skills, so he ordered the palace to come to visit the county lord. Concubine De chuckled, but her tone was not a little aggrieved, "Counting the days, Prince Rong is afraid that he will be able to return to Beijing in less than seven days." ”
Rong Ying was overjoyed, and then her face became gloomy again: "I heard that Concubine De's brother, Lord Luo Fengluo, should also return to Beijing?" ”
Concubine De's eyes flashed, and she took a step back and said: "Yes, the elder brother of this palace, Luo Feng, has been on the side of the king's men all the year round, and it is rare for me to be a younger sister." Now that the border pass is victorious, the emperor's special brother will serve in Beijing in the future, and the emperor said that the county lord is in his prime, so it is time to choose a good son-in-law. ”
Hearing her mention Bian Guan and Luo Feng, Ruoyun suddenly remembered Vice President Luo by Yu Wang's side.
The ruthless and deep knife, that knife made the situation change rapidly, made the soldiers who originally hated the same enemy turn against each other, and made Bai Ze still inconvenient to act even though he returned to Beijing. 、
It turned out that this General Luo was actually Concubine De's brother.
The conclusion is still inconclusive, but Concubine De wants to seek a position for Luo Feng? This Concubine De is so rampant, it seems that her status depends on the shadow of Lord Luo of the left servant.
Her lips trembled, and she barely clung to the eaves, her heart uneasy.
That day, General Luo's knife, Rong Yixuan's surprised look instantly showed that Luo Feng was not arranged by Rong Yixuan.
Concubine De applied for Luo Feng's job, so that Luo Feng could break away from the king and ask to marry the county lord, which was really a good plan.
However, the words of the decline of the Luo family are not groundless, and Concubine De is afraid that she will be forced to be helpless when she takes this step.
She was uneasy in her heart, but she heard Cheng Qingwen whisper disdainfully: "Self-inflicted." (To be continued......)
