CHAPTER 40
Only two days after Liang Yi'an returned to the court, King Liang received news that the first duke and his wife entered the city at noon.
Liang Yanran put away the pleadings in his hand and glanced at Cai Changan, "You go and arrange it." ”
Orange Moon stood at the gate early in the morning and looked at it. She hadn't seen her wife since Jiang Linglong left the house, and she didn't know much about what happened to her, so she thought that after her wife returned to her parents' house, she went to Xuyang with the owner. I haven't seen it for more than a month, yesterday I heard the word from the business that the master returned to the village today, she pulled the primrose pomegranate birch tree, the four maids of the cloud villa have been busy since yesterday, nitpicking the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard are spotless, preparing seasonal fruits for the lady and the owner, the Tsinghua pool is also lit with incense, and the kitchen boils black chicken soup to make up for the masters, Orange Moon has been worried that his wife has a bumpy road and will be too hard.
She guarded and watched, and saw Jianmi driving the Kuang family's carriage back, and Jiang Linglong got out of the chariot with Kuang Yu's support.
"Madame!" Why did you go out for a while and come back with bad legs? Orange Moon was in a hurry, and seeing that her master had no intention of letting go, she followed Jiang Linglong's side, "Madam, what's wrong?" Where did you hurt your leg? Does it matter? Is it serious? Have you seen a doctor? What did the doctor say? It's time to retreat, right? Heck, I would have known that I would have prepared the big bone broth in the kitchen! Eh, ma'am, walk slowly, and be careful of the steps ahead. ”
Jiang Linglong hadn't seen Orange Moon for a long time, and Orange Moon's series of nagging was annoying to hear it on weekdays, but she felt kind, and she couldn't help laughing.
"It's rare for your wife to laugh like this these days." It was Kuang Yu who spoke, "Orange Moon, go to the account office to receive the reward in a while." ”
Orange Moon didn't expect that she was worried for a long time, but the two masters didn't care at all, she glanced at Jianmi, and saw the other party shrugging their shoulders, with a look of "I don't know".
Kuang Yu personally helped Jiang Linglong back to the bedroom, halfway through the way, I was afraid that she would work hard and wanted to find a wooden wheelchair, but Jiang Linglong said that she had to exercise diligently and move around more to get better quickly.
Orange Moon, who was following behind, saw them enter the house, and couldn't help but quietly ask Miya on the side, "Do you think that between the master and the Lady of Hull...... Seems like the atmosphere is a little different? ”
Seeing Mi ignoring her, "How is it different?" It's a good relationship. He gave her a blank look, "Behind your back, talking about the master, you have been a little flamboyant lately." ”
"Ouch," Orange Moon quickly retracted, "I'm nowhere to be seen, I'm happy!" She glared back at Mi and turned to prepare tea.
"Miya."
Seeing that Mi heard Kuang Yu calling him in the house, he looked around to make sure that it was safe, and approached Jiang Linglong's bedroom.
"Master." He respectfully saluted the two who wanted to sit in front of the desk.
"Say it." When Kuang Yu entered the city, he heard the coachman outside the curtain saying that Mr. Mi was coming to greet him, so he guessed that something was happening, and he was in a hurry to report it himself.
"Our fruit shop on Xishu Street was blown up. No one was injured, and the subordinates had buried all the underground passages. It's just ......" He hesitated, as if he was considering his words.
"Just what?"
"Jin Yu was responsible for assisting his subordinates in blowing up and burying the underground passageway, and after this incident, he should have met and reinstated, but he was not seen for a long time. The people sent out by his subordinates could not find his whereabouts. He paused, then added, "It's been a week." ”
Kuang Yu held Jiang Linglong's hand and tightened imperceptibly. He let go of his hand as if at will, and put his palm down on his lap, "Is there any arrangement for Nong Yu to find it?" ”
"Yes."
"Evacuate the others, and leave Nong Yu alone to search with all his might, and if you need any assistance, you will dispatch manpower." He immediately reacted, "Gunpowder is not something that ordinary people can have. There is a volume of blowing up the entire shop, I'm afraid it's someone from the Liang family. He did not shy away from it, "First investigate the whole thing in the name of the shop." We need to know if there is exposure. If anything, how much was exposed. Plan ahead. He tapped his index finger lightly on his knee twice, "Tell me not to use walking around in all roads these days." We must be prepared for the worst when Su Jinyu is captured. ”
"Master, do you want to go to the palace to explore the truth?"
"King Cao has returned to the dynasty to resume his life, and without King Liang summoning him, I am afraid that it will be inappropriate for me to enter the palace immediately."
"No need to summon." Jiang Linglong, who was quietly listening to the conversation between the two, suddenly spoke, "Let's go early tomorrow morning." ”
"We?" Kwong Yu looked at her puzzled.
"Yes," she smiled slyly at him, "aren't you going to sue the Emperor?" ”
Kuang Yu was unexpected, and the petition had to be filed first, even if he had time to draft it today, he would not be able to submit it to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for trial and assessment of whether to play in the heavenly court. He looked at Jiang Linglong, but she looked determined, Kuang Yu's mind turned slightly, and his back was agitated.
This girl secretly handed in the pleadings before leaving.
He pointed to her head, angry and happy, "You, you." Didn't you say leave it to me? ”
Jiang Linglong raised her chin a little proudly and snorted lightly.
While talking, Orange Moon came back in a hurry with tea and fruit.
Kuang Yu told her a few precautions for taking care of his wife, and he went out.
As soon as the two left, Orange Moon didn't care about the etiquette of the master and servant, and chattered with Jiang Linglong, reporting the big and small things in the village, and said that Qinghua Pool was also ready, and it could be used for Mrs. to bathe at any time to relieve the fatigue of the journey.
Jiang Linglong listened one by one, and asked about the current situation of the other three maids.
"The three girls just listened to the slave maid in the kitchen about the lady, but they were worried, and they were afraid that it would disturb the lady's tranquility and affect your rest, so they didn't dare to come over rashly, so they all waited. If the lady needs it, the slave and maid will bring them in. ”
"I've been thinking about you all the way." Jiang Linglong smiled gently, "The military affairs are urgent, and I don't have much time to go to Xuyang, but I brought some Xuyang's specialties, thank you for your hard work all the time, I'm afraid you don't dislike it." Jiang Linglong said, and found four brocade boxes from his personal baggage, picked up one of them and handed it to Orange Moon, "This one is for you, and you can help me give them to the primrose." I really haven't been in good spirits lately, so I want to sleep for a while and then go to Tsinghua Pool. ”
Orange Moon took the brocade box with both hands and thanked her again and again.
"Thank you, open it up and see if you like it?" She was looking forward to it as if she was sharing the spoils with her best friend.
Orange Moon couldn't resist Jiang Linglong, and opened the brocade box a little embarrassed.
The moment the box was opened, Orange Yue's eyes stared straight at the gift in the box, and she looked up at Jiang Linglong in disbelief to confirm, "Madam, this, this, are you sure it was given to me?" The joy on her face was palpable, "This is too precious!" ”
In the box is a flowing moon hairpin made of hanging silk weaving gold technique, the crescent moon carved into gold is inlaid with pearl agate, the hanging silk woven gold of the rising sun is famous, plus the embellished jewelry, I am afraid that Orange Moon can not afford to buy such a hairpin for a year. But the owner's wife was still worried that she would not like it. What's not to like? Whoever doesn't like it is blind!
She was so happy that she didn't know what to say.
"I think this size is also suitable for daily wear, and the style is bigger, but I think it's exaggerated, but it's too much, such a delicate hairpin can just match our orange moon A pair of skillful hands, a meticulous." Jiang Linglong explained to her again, afraid that she would dislike the style too small, "Do you want to wear it and try it?" ”
"It's not small! Couldn't be bigger! Orange Moon waved her hand again and again, "This Liuyue has caught up with the slave maid and a finger long, Mrs. only wears a vegetarian hairpin on weekdays, how dare the slave and maid wear these precious jewelry, for fear of taking the lead in raising the arrogant wind in the village." ”
"What are you afraid of. You wear it when you look good. Jiang Linglong leaned over to help her insert the hairpin, "Look, how beautiful it is." This is the style of the orange moon girl of our Cloud Villa. She pretended to be serious, "Just wear it if it's okay, you look like me when you go out." ”
