Chapter 13: The Mind Is Hard to Discern

Zhao Jingxing pouted disapprovingly, he didn't believe that the Queen Mother could teach any good girls, mainly under the influence of the old lady of the Zhao family, she didn't say bad things about her sister-in-law on weekdays.

And Zhao Jingxing was born and was raised by her, so naturally he was also affected a lot, so he had a deep prejudice against the queen mother's ancestors and grandchildren, and he had no good impression in his heart.

"Otherwise, let's have a night visit to the boudoir tonight, I don't believe it, don't you wonder what this Kangping County Lord looks like, maybe we can find out what useful news we can hear."

Zhao Jingshen subconsciously frowned and felt inappropriate, "Third brother, don't mess around, this is the Jianzhang Palace, not a place where you can be presumptuous at will, besides, the county lord is not only the daughter of our aunt, but also the noble daughter of the clan, we can't be so unruly." ”

Zhao Jingxing is the most impatient with his brother about rules and etiquette, he has always been the character of a little bully, he can do whatever he wants, he is also protected by an old lady on weekdays, he is not afraid of heaven and earth, and his curiosity is heavy at this time, so he will not dispel his thoughts.

"Okay, okay, don't be verbose, I'll go alone, my fist and foot skills are better than yours, even if I am caught, I am younger than the county lord, and I am her cousin, so there will be no big deal."

After speaking, without waiting for Zhao Jingshen to agree, he turned around and walked out, he has been eating extremely poor these days, and he has to go to the kitchen to find something delicious first.

Zhao Jingshen was still hesitating for a moment, this person was gone, he was also extremely polite on weekdays, and he had never been abrupt about the girl's family, although he was very curious about his cousin, but he didn't have to see it immediately, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was inappropriate, and when the third brother came back, he had to stop his recklessness.

Wei Baofu did everything as usual, and did not put the so-called cousin and cousin in her eyes at all, for her, thinking about how to deal with the emperor and the others after entering the palace was far more meaningful than being curious about these two people.

Sitting in front of the dresser, listening to Mama Qian and Linglong looking at the account books, she was very careful, for fear that she would miss her favorite objects, although she could send someone to pick it up, but it was too troublesome.

After all the account books were completed, I saw Pearl walking in angrily with a tray, first saluted Wei Baofu, and then said very unhappily: "The third young master of the Yongyi Hou Mansion is really unruly, I ordered Mama Yao in the big kitchen to stew bird's nest for you, and as soon as the stew was completed, the third young master cut off his beard, and he didn't look at what place this was." ”

Linglong hurriedly put away the account book, stood up and asked, "Our county lord's food has always been made in the small kitchen, why do you go to the big kitchen?" ”

Pearl hurriedly explained: "Didn't I hear that this bird's nest stewed by Grandma Yao is the most authentic, and our county lord doesn't love the fishy smell in the bird's nest, so he thought about letting her try it, and the result was good." ”

Eating a little, Wei Baofu didn't care at all, she said indifferently: "If he likes to eat, let him eat, tell Mama Yao to stew him another cup in the morning, don't lose your temperament for a little thing." ”

Mama Qian said disapprovingly: "The county lord is too good, that third young master can do this, he must not have you in his eyes, I don't believe that Pearl will not say that this is a bird's nest stewed for you." ”

Pearl nodded hurriedly, "I naturally said it, and I also said that you have to make up for your body recently, who knows, the third young master said that the county lord is not bad for this meal or two, and he also needs to make up for it." ”

Wei Baofu had a smile on his face, very relaxed, "Okay, I remember that the third young master is still younger than me, just treat it as a child, he is not an important person, an insignificant person, I don't need to care if he takes me in his eyes or not." ”

Many times outsiders will feel that she is indifferent when they look at Wei Baofu, in fact, only she knows that she looks down on everything, so that she can really protect herself, she was born with fewer feelings, except for the people who hurt her to the bone, the rest of the people are not worthy of her mood swings.

Mama Qian said: "Forget it, forget it, this is to meet our county lord, if it is other noble girls in the capital, I don't dare to do this, anyway, we will set off early tomorrow morning, we will avoid them along the way, and we can't afford to hide." ”

Wei Baofu smiled approvingly, took a bowl of soup and tasted it carefully, as soon as the mushroom soup entered his mouth, the fresh fragrance rushed straight to the taste buds, Wei Baofu only felt extremely satisfied.

"Mama, you can also try this mushroom soup, you all go to eat together, I will leave a second-class little girl here to wait."

Wei Baofu doesn't like to let people cook on weekdays, but he doesn't need them to serve by his side all the time, Mama Qian and the others are also used to it, but they don't shirk, and they tell the little girls who stay behind to do their best, and they all leave.

After dinner and washing, Wei Baofu leaned on the small couch in front of the window, holding a book in his hand and watching it with relish.

Worried that it would be difficult to wash on the road, Wei Baofu also washed her hair, it was not dry at the moment, she was covered with a thin blanket, and there were no socks on her feet, Bingxin was gently wiping her hair, tonight was the night of the Bingxin jade pot.

The jade pot made the bed, turned around and called softly: "County Lord, you can go to bed and rest, Ming'er has to get up early, but you can't be reading." ”

Wei Baofu didn't raise his head, he made a perfunctory hum, and I don't know if she heard it, Bing Xin stopped what she was doing with a smile, "County Lord, you said today that you would go to bed earlier." ”

The tone of this speech was like coaxing an ignorant child, Wei Baofu was very funny, and he had no choice but to close the book and hand it to Bingxin, "Okay, you put the book away, and I'll go to sleep." ”

Wei Baofu has seen the kung fu of these two girls, or consciously goes to bed early to calm his ears.

Bingxin jade pot intimately took off Wei Baofu's outer clothes, and after she lay down, put down the gauze tent, and lightly extinguished the candle, Bingxin said softly: "County master, the slaves and maids are in the ear room, if there is something to call us, directly ring the bell to call us." ”

Wei Baofu hummed softly, waited for the two girls to go out, closed the door, and the room was quiet.

There is one thing Wei Baofu didn't say anyone, she has been a little insomnia recently, since the mess beat the soup shopkeeper to death, she can hear his crying from time to time at night, all this is an illusion, Wei Baofu himself knows.

But after all, it is a living human life, if it is in modern times, he is actually not guilty to death, but in today's environment, she has no principles, she has to let people see her decision to kill, she has to be self-reliant, the guilt in her heart, and the sadness and fear that are difficult to tell can only be pressed into the deepest part of her heart.

With his eyes open, Wei Baofu looked at the top of the tent with some indifference, today is just fifteen, and the light of the full moon shines into the house, but it is not dark.

Recently, she often emptied herself like now, in addition to the youngest daughter who has entered the East Palace, there are two concubines in the family, a son and a daughter, Wei Baofu only drove them out of the house where he sent them to settle down, and the rest of the money was not all searched, she can already be regarded as merciful.

She just wanted to close her eyes, when she suddenly heard footsteps on the roof, and after a while, the movement was even louder, and she calmly lifted the quilt and got up.

The Bingxin Jade Pot, who had not yet slept, also knocked on the door anxiously outside, "County Lord, do you have something to do, the guards who are keeping vigil outside have caught a thief." ”

"I'm fine, you guys come in and take the lamp." Wei Baofu is still very relieved to hand over his safety to the guards, if she can't even rest assured that her father left behind, then there is no need to plan the rest of the matter, just be a leisurely county lord.

After the Bingxin Jade Pot entered the house, one of the hands and feet was quick to put on a cloak for the county lord, and it was bound to cover his own county lord from head to tail, and Wei Baofu came by them.

When it was cleaned up, the two of them helped Wei Baofu to walk out, and at this time, the little thief had been pressed and knelt on the ground by the five flowers, and he was still shouting in his mouth: "You blind dog-eyed things, are you tying up if you want?" I don't ask who the master is. ”

Ye Feng, the leader of the guards, kicked him and mocked unceremoniously: "If you dare to be wild in front of the county lord, no one's master will be able to do it, and it is also feasible to correct the law on the spot." ”

Ye Feng is the leader of the personal guards personally cultivated by Prince Lian, both in skill and loyalty, and now his loyalty to Wei Baofu is no less than that of Prince Lian, even if he sees the identity of this person, he is not merciless.

"The lord of this county wants to know, who are you the young master, dare to be so presumptuous, can everyone in your family know?"

Wei Baofu's warm and clear voice like water suddenly came into Zhao Jingxing's ears, and he reflexively turned his head to look over.

He didn't know how to describe this glance, the woman in his eyes was plain faced, her skin was white and delicate, her facial features were all exquisite, her black hair was like ink and scattered on her shoulders, although she was wearing a cloak, she could still see her graceful posture when she walked.

This is a beauty that people never get tired of seeing, it is the first time Zhao Jingxing has seen it in his life, such a woman, just her appearance, let alone his eldest brother, even if she is a dragon son and a phoenix grandson, not to mention, she is born noble.

"Cousin, I am Zhao Jingxing, the third young master of the Yongyi Hou Mansion, I just took the wrong road and accidentally broke into your yard, and I ask my cousin's subordinates to be merciful."

Wei Baofu's face was calm, she was not easily angry, she had guessed before she saw anyone, but now as she thought, she didn't feel angry.

"The third young master still doesn't want to climb relatives at will, the county lord knows that there are several cousins and cousins in the clan, and there are gifts in the past New Year's Festival, but I don't know that there are cousins."

These words are not light or serious, but they criticize the Zhao family for their insincerity everywhere, Zhao Jingxing didn't feel anything, but now he feels a little guilty when he sees such a beautiful cousin being treated so coldly by his own family.

"Cousin, don't be angry, I don't know much about the elders, but I am very happy to hear that there is a cousin like you, and I want to take good care of you this time."

Wei Baofu knew in his heart, this thing was straightforward and reckless on the surface, but in fact it was a somewhat cautious face control, if there was enough time, she wouldn't mind dealing with him, but she was not in the mood at the moment.

Mama Qian came over as early as when Wei Baofu was asking, and saw that Zhao Jingxing was very unkind, the amazement on his face was so obvious that Mama Qian couldn't wait to gouge out his eyeballs.

Glaring at him fiercely, thinking of the prince who was still waiting to see outside, she walked to Wei Baofu's side and whispered a few words in a low voice, Wei Baofu nodded, and said to Ye Feng: "Leader Ye, send him out and hand him over to the prince of Yongyi Houfu, he is at the gate of the courtyard, by the way, warn, if there is a next time, kill him!" ”

She was obviously smiling, but when she said the four words to Zhao Jingxing, Zhao Jingxing only felt that such a cousin was really easy to provoke, and he would not take what she said as a joke.

Ye Feng received the order and directly dragged Zhao Jingxing out, at this moment, Zhao Jingshen, who was standing outside the courtyard with Mama Feng, only felt extremely embarrassed, and Mama Feng's disgusted expression just now, he also felt deeply.

When he saw Zhao Jingxing come out safe and sound, he reprimanded him again, I don't know if the third young master knew that he was wrong, or if he was immersed in Wei Baofu's beauty, and he didn't quibble at this time.

Zhao Jingshen saluted Mama Feng, Mama Feng dodged sideways, and said coldly: "The prince of the world should take care of the third young master, if the queen mother knows about this matter, I am afraid that the two of you brothers will not end well, and the grievances on both sides will be aggravated in vain. ”

After speaking, she didn't look at the expressions of the two, nodded with Ye Feng and turned to leave, at this moment, if Zhao Jingshen still wants to punish Zhao Jingxing, then there is no need, if he resolutely stops it at the beginning, it will not be like this.

When the two brothers returned to the house, Zhao Jingxing said unsatisfied: "Big brother, I saw the county lord, she is simply a rare beauty in the world, if you can marry her home, it will be in vain." ”

Zhao Jingshen drank a few sips of cold tea one after another, and said very unhappily: "Look at the trouble you caused, after tossing for so long, you only care about the appearance of the county lord?" ”

Zhao Jingxing's dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and said very scoundrelly: "This appearance is naturally extremely important, but this cousin is also not easy to mess with, she speaks softly and gently, but it is like a thorn, and she can't move easily." ”

How can it be simple to make the people around him so loyal and defending, I am afraid that their brother's behavior has long been inferior, and before they meet, he will be disliked, and he is also to blame himself, if he has a correct attitude and is cautious and polite, he will not make such a fuss.

I always felt that he would regret what he had done today, but now that the matter had come to this, he said helplessly: "That's it, let's rest early, and have the opportunity to explain to the county lord in the future, after all, it is not intentionally offended." ”

"I guess my cousin doesn't pay attention to it, she looks very difficult to approach, our grandmother probably can't do it, and I don't know how the queen mother was raised, a good beautiful girl, it's so difficult to get close to her."

Zhao Jingshen didn't pay attention to him, and went to sleep by himself, let's talk about the future later.
