Chapter 423: You can marry next year!
Jin Xiuchen looked at the four or five plates of porridge and side dishes on the table, and his mood became relaxed, these were more appetizing than greasy meals.
I put a spoonful of cucumber shreds on her plate and said with a smile, "You eat more." ”
As the weather gets hotter, she is much pickier in her diet and eats much less every day.
"It's time for me to entertain Your Highness. Peng Mo smiled and gave him a crystal shrimp dumpling.
The chopsticks in their hands collided lightly on the vessel, making a very small and crisp sound, the lights and candles illuminated, and the two looked at each other, each pursed their lips and smiled.
The rain fell again, the door was open, and the breeze poured into the room, dispelling the only trace of dullness in my heart.
Liuying walked with an umbrella, closed the umbrella under the eaves, took a few steps forward, and said respectfully: "Master, Your Highness, Yao Ruolan is here, just outside the mansion gate." ”
"Why is she here?" Peng Mo frowned and looked at Jin Xiuchen, didn't he say that he was out of Beijing? Why did he come to the door now?"
Liuying nodded: "She's alone, and she doesn't even have a maid by her side." ”
Jin Xiuchen's eyes sank, Yao Cheng saw King Gong, and sent Yao Ruolan away when he returned home, but Yao Ruolan came to Peng Mo at this time.
It's kind of interesting!
With a chuckle, he said, "Invite people to the side hall, and we'll go later." ”
Liuyi nodded in response, turned around and went out of the house.
"What did you think of?" Peng Mo looked at him sideways, not ignoring the smile on the corner of his mouth, thief.
"You eat more, this one is delicious. Jin Xiuchen didn't answer her question, and gave her all kinds of dishes that she was consciously eating.
Peng Mocai drank a bowl of porridge and looked at the two shrimp dumplings, a bean paste cake and a mountain of side dishes on the plate with a bitter face. "I can't eat it. ”
"Let's go, then. Jin Xiuchen also put down the dishes and chopsticks and pulled people to the side hall.
deliberately did not walk on the Jiuqu corridor, and the two held an oil-paper umbrella.
The raindrops were dripping on the umbrella, and she reached out to catch a few drops of rainwater, dipped them in her fingertips, and dotted them on the tip of his nose.
"Naughty. Jin Xiuchen chuckled lightly and leaned over to rub against her face.
Peng Mo couldn't dodge, his cheeks were rubbed with rain, and his eyes suddenly glared at him with disgust.
Jin Xiuchen laughed, bowed his head again, and imprinted a kiss on her lips.
Peng Mo's face turned red, and he was about to push him away.
Jin Xiuchen quickly hugged the person tightly and said with a smile: "If you retreat, it will be raining." After saying that, he held her arm and tilted his hand holding the umbrella to her side, and a lot of raindrops fell on his shoulders.
Peng Mo pursed his lips and smiled, leaned in the crook of his arm, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to go with me to take a look?"
Jin Xiuchen was very nervous in his heart, and tightened his arms and said, "I want to listen to it." If my guess is correct, Yao Ruolan is very likely to fall out with Yao Cheng. ”
Peng Mo's eyes lit up: "In that case, there will be a good show to watch." ”
Jin Xiuchen nodded and said with a smile: "Liuli is becoming more and more like you." ”
"What?" Peng Mo was puzzled.
"Cunning!"
"Your Highness has taught well. Peng Mo raised his head and smiled, very proud.
“...”
Peng Mo entered the side hall, and Jin Xiuchen jumped in through the back window and hid behind the screen.
Yao Ruolan saw Peng Mo at a glance, stood up immediately, wiped her tears and called out sadly: "County Lord." ”
Frowning and looking at the woman in front of him, Peng Mo couldn't hide his surprise: "Miss Yao, what's wrong?"
I saw that Yao Ruolan was in a mess, her hair was wet and sticking to her face, the clothes on her body were all soaked, dripping with water, and there were pieces of mud and weeds on her embroidered shoes.
Yao Ruolan didn't care about Peng Mo's gaze, she knelt on the ground with a bang, took a few steps on her knees and grabbed the hem of her skirt, tears flowed down the corners of her eyes: "The county lord save me." ”
She struggled to get rid of the maid who sent her back to her hometown, and ran all the way back to Beijing, but there were very few people in Kyoto who were willing to associate with her, and as a last resort, she had to choose the ignorant and deceitful Peng Mo.
Grandfather Ren couldn't imagine that she was nesting in the General's Mansion if he wanted to break his head!
"This is.... Peng Mo couldn't retreat and was grabbed by her skirt, and almost fell down, but fortunately, Liuyingyan quickly held on.
"Master, slow down. ”
Peng Mo shook his head to indicate that it was okay, lowered his head to look at Yao Ruolan, frowned and asked softly, "Miss Yao will get up first." ”
Yao Ruolan grabbed the light gauze skirt in her hand, as if she was grasping a piece of life-saving driftwood in deep water.
"County Lord, I am really desperate, my grandfather forcibly sent me out of Beijing, asking me to go back to my hometown to marry a man I don't know. The same woman, she believes that Peng Mo will be moved by this news.
Peng Mo was stunned, a little uncertain, and said, "This... Yao is a great Confucian, how can he act like this?"
Yao Ruolan cried breathlessly: "County Lord, that person is a reckless man, Wan is not a woman's lover, I don't know how to get my grandfather's eyes, my grandfather is confused, please save me." ”
Peng Mo motioned for Liuying to step forward and picked Yao Ruolan up together.
Pulling out the handkerchief and handing it to her, Peng Mo frowned and said, "I'm just a deep girl, how can I get involved in the Yao family's family affairs?"
Yao Ruolan saw the sympathy in Peng Mo's eyes, and thought it was done, but she didn't expect to hear this sentence and wipe her tears with her hands!
Yes, even though Peng Mo has a deep background, how can she interfere in the Yao family's family affairs?
Thinking of someone suddenly, a flash of light burst out of her eyes, and she said hurriedly: "County Lord, can you take me to see His Royal Highness King Gong tomorrow?"
Peng Mo looked at Yao Ruolan suspiciously: "King Gong, Miss Yao and King Gong are familiar with each other?" was really panicked, and even said the name of King Gong.
Yao Ruolan's heart trembled, and she hurriedly shook her head and waved her hand: "I'm not familiar with it, I just had a few encounters when I met Princess Gong." Knowing that King Gong is an upright person, he will not sit idly by. ”
Peng Moxin nodded in disbelief: "But... Yao Lao is King Gong's mentor, will King Gong refute Yao Lao in this matter?"
Yao Ruolan didn't expect Peng Mo, a woman who stayed at home, to know what happened more than ten years ago, but the current situation couldn't help her to delve into it.
"Actually, my grandfather was very afraid of King Gong, and if King Gong spoke, my grandfather would definitely not disobey. Today, my grandfather knelt in front of King Gong with fear, and she had never seen that cautious look.
Outsiders all respect the king's teacher, but in her opinion, this is not the case.
Peng Mo seemed to be moved by Yao Ruolan's pitiful appearance, and nodded reluctantly: "Okay, I'll send someone to Yao's mansion now and tell Yao Lao, so as not to worry him." ”
Yao Ruolan was shocked, and suddenly got up and shouted: "No, you can't tell my grandfather my whereabouts." ”
Peng Mo looked at her and said lightly, "Is this good?"
Yao Ruolan sent people under the fence, and was busy softening her attitude: "Please, county lord, don't tell anyone about my whereabouts until I see King Gong, okay?"
Peng Mo smiled: "I promise you." ”
"Thank you, thank you, thank you. Yao Ruolan breathed a sigh of relief, sure enough, Peng Mo was easy to deceive!
Peng Mo didn't care about Yao Ruolan's thoughts, and ordered: "Liuying, take someone to clean up the side house in the Mohe Garden, and ask Miss Yao to live temporarily." ”
"Yes. Hotaru led the order and left.
"Mercy Feng, you take Miss Yao to freshen up, so as not to catch a cold. "This body, I don't know how the high-ranking Yao Ruolan endured it.
"Yes, Miss Yao, please come with the slave. Lianfeng nodded lightly and led Yao Ruolan out.
Before walking out of the side hall, Yao Ruolan turned around and looked at the person sitting quietly under the lamp, with a moment of envy and jealousy in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it and said sincerely: "Thank you, county lord." ”
Peng Mo smiled back.
Jin Xiuchen walked out from behind the screen, sat down beside Peng Mo, and said with a smile: "It seems that Yao Cheng is evading King Gong." ”
Peng Mo nodded thoughtfully: "I just don't know why I escaped." ”
"You'll find out tomorrow. "If you want to find a reason to go to Prince Gong's Mansion tomorrow, he can't miss this good show.
Qi Xin walked in and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, Imperial Doctor Xu has gone to Prince Gong's Mansion." ”
The peach blossom eyes were instantly sharp, the smile at the corners of the mouth was all restricted, the tense jaw was full of anger, and he gritted his teeth and asked word by word: "What did you talk about?"
"I talked about the illness of the county lord of Qianhua, said that I couldn't hide it, and asked King Gong for advice. ”
"Sure enough, it's him!" sneered, his tone desolate.
"Go down. Peng Mo dismissed Qi Xin, got up and walked to Jin Xiuchen's side, leaned over and gently hugged his shoulder, and said softly: "It's better for me to take you in for the night." ”
"Poof" Jin Xiuchen was amused to laugh, the boredom and sadness accumulated in his heart disappeared, he pinched the tip of her nose sideways, and said with a doting smile: "You, you..." ”
Peng Mo was dumbfounded, and asked in great surprise: "What's the matter?"
Another laugh: "I can't put it down if I like it." ”
Seeing that he had really cleared the gloomy color, Peng Mo put his mind at ease and asked with a smile: "Tomorrow the blue bird is going to the Hou Mansion, right?"
"Hmm. Jin Xiuchen nodded.
He never thought that Wu Qianhua's illness was actually done by King Gong!
Princess Tai and Yong Yihou have been away from the government for many years, what reason does King Gong have to target them?
What exactly is this hidden secret?
Peng Mo thought about the woman he saw in the teahouse that day, and then thought of her body that had been eroded by poison for many years, and sighed lightly. said: "Qianhua's poison has accumulated for many years, and I hope that the blue bird can rejuvenate with a skillful hand." ”
"Blue Bird's medical skills are becoming more and more exquisite, with him, Wu Qianhua's illness is not a problem. "It's not that Jin Xiuchen boasts of his subordinates, but he really believes in the craftsmanship of the blue bird.
"I met Si Yue yesterday and heard that she was pregnant. Peng Mo said with a smile: "When do you plan to settle the marriage of the blue bird?"
When Jin Xiuchen heard this, he immediately complained, and asked with a bitter face: "When do you plan to settle my marriage?"
Peng Mo is embarrassed, what is this!
glared at him with disgust and scolded him for not being serious.
"If you don't answer me, you still stare at me. Jin Xiuchen was even more aggrieved, stepped forward to hug her, and rubbed his cheek against her face.
Peng Mo couldn't smile bitterly, couldn't push him away, and hammered him angrily: "How old are you, you haven't done it yet." ”
"Then you say, when will you marry me. "Jin Xiuchen incarnated as a verbose ghost who did not forgive.
"Next year, late autumn, how?" Peng Mo stared at him, smiling shallowly, and his voice was soft and tactful.
Jin Xiuchen was stunned, looked into her eyes, and nodded.
