Volume 1 Origin Chapter 289 The Beans Are Yours
Taking advantage of the excitement and returning from the defeat, Rong Ruo sat in the carriage with his head propped up, and his fingers dipped tea on the small table.
Yuegui poured the cooled tea, filled it again, looked at Rong Ruoyi's appearance, and said, "Is the girl sleepy?" It will take a while to return to the palace left and right, or the slave and maid will spread out the felt blanket next to it, and lie down and rest for a while. ”
Rong Ruo put down her hand, leaned back against the wall of the carriage, and shook her head, she was just thinking about the conversation with Mu Beichen before leaving the palace.
When Meiyuan came out, Rong Ruo was with Mu Beichen, and the three members of the Yan family went to Dali Temple with Chao Zhen for Chen Chen's matter.
A lively feast cast a shadow under the death of Sang Zhaoyuan and Zheng Jiaren, and the concubine who was originally a good choice was temporarily gone.
Rong Ruo and Mu Beichen stood under a cloister outside the plum garden, facing the carved lotus terrace, Rong Ruo asked the hidden doubts in his heart: "When you give me the beads, you know what will happen?" ”
A gust of breeze swayed outside the corridor, bending over the several pots of evergreen placed outside the terrace, Mu Beichen's quietly standing figure was stretched into a charming softness, exuding a mysterious taste, "I guessed halfway, and then make some arrangements as soon as possible, it doesn't matter if it comes in handy." ”
Rong Ruo lowered his head and thought for a moment, put his hand on the pillar under the corridor, and turned his head to look at Mu Beichen, "If you say so, the man in black will not become Chen Chen's handiwork, right?" What were your original plans, and why were they different from what you said before? ”
"Because Zheng Jiaren is dead." The word death that came out of Mu Beichen's mouth was particularly cold, with an emotionless arc, as if talking about the weather, "If you don't put Chen Chen there, how can you get rid of the suspicion of a murderer." ”
Rong Ruo's eyebrows were lowered, and his gaze turned slightly, "Then you also know the murderer of Zheng Jiaren?" "I almost forgot, Mu Beichen is still the commander of the forbidden army, and there are any big moves in the palace that can hide from him.
Mu Beichen lowered his eyelids, and an imperceptible cold color appeared in his eyes, "I don't know, Zheng Jiaren was already dead when I received the news, and you just passed by the plum garden, so I guessed the other party's plan." ”
"How could you not know?" Rong Ruo subconsciously retorted: "The palace is full of forbidden soldiers." ”
Mu Beichen looked at her: "Could it be that your maids are all your people?" ”
Rong Ruo was choked for a moment, and reacted instantly, how long Mu Beichen has only mastered the forbidden army, that is, he is obedient on the surface, and it is difficult to say who he really regards as the master in his heart, not to mention how much control King Duan has over the forbidden army, and as a forbidden army serving in the palace, how big the emperor is to entrust his safety and security, in the end, no one knows how deep the water of the forbidden army is.
Suddenly, Fu Zhi's heart flashed a spiritual light: "You won't deliberately hand over the forbidden army, right?" "Obedient soldiers certainly want everyone, but if you have the Lord in your heart, wouldn't it be fatal to keep them by your side?
Mu Beichen looked deeply into Rong Ruo's eyes, his gaze was as cold and deep as an ancient well in winter, revealing infinite coldness, "You did another stupid thing today." ”
Rong Ruo put the tip of his tongue against his cheeks, and wanted to scold people, "I saw Xiaojin in the East Palace before, how did I know that she was here to fish." ”
"Are you the first day to enter the palace, or are you a young and toothed child who has nothing to do?" Mu Beichen's thin lips lifted, and the mean and ruthless words were released unceremoniously from his mouth, "Eating a loss once is considered a lack of IQ, and again and again it is stupid, ignorant and unattainable." ”
Rong Ruo felt that if she hadn't cultivated well, she would definitely have to shoot the case, and Mu Beichen was desperate for life, but what to do now, she had to kneel and lick, "Lord Wang, you are right, thanks to your wisdom and insight into opportunities, you can be one step ahead, strangle all sins in the cradle, and let others cry, we just laugh." ”
After licking it, Rong Ruo remembered that Mu Qingqing suddenly appeared in the plum garden, and Mu Beichen was able to invite Mu Qingqing, who was far away from the sky to pray for blessings, back in advance.
Mu Beichen looked at the mentally retarded expression, and said lightly: "It's not Qingqing, there will be others, but her identity is better." It just so happened that Mu Qingqing wrote a letter last month, saying that she and the Queen Mother were about to return to Beijing after praying for blessings, but she didn't expect to come back so coincidentally.
Rong Ruo thought that Mu Qingqing was loved by thousands of people, and Rao was still coquettish in front of the emperor who was majestic and solemn, and asked who else in the world was indeed the most suitable candidate, because what she did was normal and not easy to suspect.
"But Wen Qiyan ......" Rong Ruo's eyebrows furrowed, the letter she asked Green Sparrow to change at first did lead to Fengyue, but it was not the poem she saw before, but a simple sentence, but she didn't sign it, at most it hinted that she didn't want to kill anyone, but Wen Qiyan offended her, and she also took revenge in person, so it would be meaningless to do this again.
Mu Beichen raised his eyebrows, and said coolly: "It's not you who brought the wind direction to her, and now sympathy is superfluous." ”
Rong Ruo opened his mouth and noticed that Mu Beichen's bottomless gaze was like a lonely lake in the deep night, looking peaceful and actually dark and deep, no matter how it was, it couldn't stir up a trace of waves, but gave people a cold and cruel taste.
"I didn't mean that." If Rong were not the Holy Mother, she would not have repeatedly bullied people and tried to save with the call of love, she had already thought about it when she hinted that Wen Qiyan was the object of the tryst with the man in black, even if the rumors and rumors in Beijing were limited to the noble gate in the capital for a few days, but there was no actual evidence, and no one would treat Wen Qiyan well.
The reason for choosing Wen Qiyan is very simple, there is nothing better than Fengyue to resolve this situation, and it happened to be Wen Qiyan who offended Rong Ruo recently, and at the same time, because Wen Qiyan offended the snobbish old eunuch by saying sarcastically about Jiang Gonggong in the palace, it couldn't be simpler to let Jiang Gonggong do something when Wen Qiyan changed clothes.
Mu Beichen raised his hand, and the slightly cool fingertips roamed over the woman's slippery skin, like a lightly chilled feather, "Rong Ruo, when the palace maid who is always there testifies against you, do you have a way to clarify?" ”
Rong Ruo opened her long eyelashes, looked at Mu Beichen's deep eyes, and the palace maid who was always there said that she saw her and Chen Chen's tryst on the way to find the cat, and her demeanor was intimate, and the time and place were right, and there were two other little palace maids who could testify that they had met Rong Ruo in that place......
"If the letter found on Chen Chen's body is your signature......" Mu Beichen stopped talking, but Rong Ruo suddenly understood the following words, if the signature in the letter was Rong Ruo, then the matter is complete with human and material evidence, and she will be irrefutable.
Mu Beichen's fingers swiped down from the tip of Rong Ruo's nose, paused and touched her lips, and then the whole palm covered Rong Ruo's face, leaned over, covered Rong Ruo's ear with his lips, and lowered his voice in a cold voice: "Mercy is also a gift, not a virtue carried by the body itself. ”
Rong Ruo bit her lip, her eyelashes pressed down, she heard Mu Beichen's words, when she hadn't stood at a certain height, she was not even qualified to give sympathy and pity to others.
"But...... Mu Beichen, I'm not you, if I have a choice, I won't impose the blame on innocent people no matter what, even if this person has a bad character, but to put it bluntly, she hasn't done anything hurtful. Rong Ruo sighed lightly from between her lips and teeth, looked down at the embroidery of butterflies playing in the water at the corner of her skirt, and said as if talking to herself: "Even if we make a mistake and the law of the yamen, why should we destroy other people's lives." ”
Mu Beichen's fingers were slightly forced, Rong Ruo's chin was raised high by him, his eyes inevitably met him, the man's gaze was as vast as the sea, and the deep and unfathomable eyes were rolling with indifferent waves, "Rong Ruo, one day you are killed by these useless sympathy and weakness, you will understand how ignorant and ignorant you are today." ”
Rong Ruo seemed to be frozen by Mu Beichen's cold eyes, even her breathing was cold, the trembling coldness swam all the way from her back to her toes, her five fingers moved, grasping the pillars, because she was too hard, as if she wanted to be embedded, she mustered all her momentum, tried to look back at the past, and said slowly: "Even if I am poor at dusk, I will eventually live for the dignity of a person." ”
To be a dignified person, you can be unkind and selfish, but you can't use other people's lives as your own stepping stones.
"That's a nice thing to say." Mu Beichen's frost-stained eyebrows did not move, his thin lips slightly lifted a very shallow arc, but there was no smile in his eyes, "Shouldn't this king remind you, you don't have the right to say no now." ”
Rong Ruo's eyelashes trembled, and a touch of sarcasm flashed towards her drooping gaze, "What the prince reminded is that the folk girl has been taught." She must have asked Mu Beichen to bring her into the play, so she forgot the essence of this man because of the little warmth in her palm.
The carriage flickered, and the inertia made Rong Ruo lean over the carriage wall on the left, and through the raised curtain, Rong Ruo saw the passers-by wrapped in cotton jackets on the street, or the vicissitudes of wind and rain, or smiling, people coming and going, all have their own places.
The food stall next to it was steaming, and the small vendor scooped up a sea bowl of dumplings and sent it to the table, where there sat a family of three, wearing very old cotton clothes, but tidying up, and the three of them shared a bowl of dumplings, which should be very shabby, but the scene was particularly warm in Rong Ruo's opinion.
The happiness that people have has never had anything to do with wealth, Mu Beichen has never had the smile on the face of the family of three, Rong Ruo wants to chop himself, and always thinks of what that bad man does.
When she arrived at King Jing's Mansion, Yue Gui jumped out of the carriage first, and the green finch had just grabbed the curtain to go out, and Rong Ruo called: "Wait a minute." ”
Green Sparrow turned his head with doubts in his eyes, and sat cross-legged opposite Rong Ruo, his upper body was straight, his hands were on his knees, and he looked like he was ready to settle down.
Rong Ruo saw her old-fashioned appearance, and couldn't help laughing: "You don't need to do this way from time to time, I'm not used to it, just be casual in front of me." ”
Saying that, people's personalities are not easy to change, Rong Ruo took out a green bean from his pocket, the green finch eyebrows moved, and recognized that this was not the mung bean that he bet on when he was in the palace.
"Oh, admit defeat, this bean is for you." Rong Ruo's index finger and thumb twisted the mung bean, and her cunning eyes were half-narrowed, like a fox teasing a hamster.
