Chapter 144: Return to Beijing
Su Wanqing and the others decided to set off, and Rong Shuxuan immediately instructed his subordinates to start the matter of leaving the country for the sky.
Soon, several people were on their way.
Sitting in the carriage to Tianli Country, Su Wanqing couldn't help but feel a little emotional. When I first came, I was obviously just thinking about curing the disease and looking at the scenery on the road. I didn't expect that the relationship between Dongli Kingdom and her was so big.
Now that I have left the Eastern Thunder Country, my state of mind is completely different from that when I came to the Eastern Thunder Country. Now that she is leaving, Su Wanqing still has a trace of nostalgia for Dongli Kingdom, and she knows that she will eventually return here. It's just that the matter hasn't been resolved yet, and she doesn't know when she'll be back.
If you want to say that there is a difference, it is probably that there is an extra sense of belonging. Dongli Country is her home, and there are her relatives here, and this feeling cannot be compared to being in the Heavenly Country.
Rong Yanyu looked at the little couple sitting next to each other, and couldn't help but sigh faintly.
Su Wanqing and Pei Xiu raised their heads to look at him at the same time, and Su Wanqing asked with some curiosity, "Brother, what's wrong with you?" ”
Rong Yanyu glanced at her, sighed again, and then turned his head and said, "This prince has never felt that there is anything good about falling in love before. I'm a little uncomfortable with you two here. ”
Su Wanqing and Pei Xiu glanced at each other, and immediately understood what Rong Yanyu meant. Su Wanqing smiled "poof" and said, "Brother, you should also find me a sister-in-law, after all, you are not too young." ”
When Rong Yanyu heard this, she glared at Su Wanqing fiercely and said, "Your brother and I are only twenty-five years old, why are we not too young?" How do you speak, you little girl. ”
Su Wanqing was laughed at by Rong Yanyu's "Fang Ling" again, he is a big man, and he is not ashamed to use the words used by a girl. How could she think that Rong Yanyu was an extremely elegant man at the beginning, and it was clearly a potential tease in her bones.
However, there is nothing wrong with this, at least it makes Su Wanqing feel that chatting with Rong Yanyu is a very relaxed and pleasant thing.
Pei Xiu rubbed Su Wanqing's brain beside him, glanced at her affectionately, and then turned to Rong Yanyu and said, "Brother-in-law, you should also find us a sister-in-law, what type do you want?" Do you want to repair it for you to recommend a recommendation? ”
Rong Yanyu didn't expect that the man who was so serious at the beginning would actually start to make fun of himself at this time. He couldn't help but glared at Pei Xiu, don't look over, and decided to ignore them. Anyway, he suffered by himself, and he still kept silent.
On the other side, in the Prime Minister's Mansion of Tianli Kingdom, Nguyen was sitting in his room, drinking tea. Su Wanyue was sitting next to her, holding a long red dress in her hand, she was holding a needle and thread, sewing clothes, and raising her head from time to time to talk to Ruan.
Ruan Shi looked at the red wedding dress in Su Wanyue's hand, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "Yue'er, you, it's time to rest." It's been a morning sewing, and it's time to get tired. Take a break and then continue, right? ”
When Su Wanyue heard this, she raised her head and said with a little shyness on her face: "Mother, Yue'er is not tired." You also know that the marriage between Yue'er and the second prince is approaching, and if the wedding dress is not made again, Yue'er is afraid that she will not be able to catch up. ”
Ruan Shi said helplessly: "You, you can obviously find a suitable store to make beautiful clothes for you, but you have to sew it yourself, it's not worth it if you are tired." ”
Su Wanyue shook her head and said softly: "Mother, this is the wedding that Yue'er attaches the most importance to, and the husband Yue'er married is still the man she has always admired...... Yue'er hopes that she can sew the wedding dress by herself and wear it on the day of marriage, and that feeling must be very different. ”
Ruan Shi looked at Su Wanyue's soft and shy appearance, nodded a little funny, and didn't say anything more. Since the marriage was approaching, the two of them have been busy preparing for the wedding, but they haven't paid attention to the affairs of the house for a long time. However, there is nothing in the house that needs to be dealt with by them for the time being.
Ruan Shi twisted a snack and put it in his mouth, chewed a few bites, seemed to remember something, and said, "By the way, why haven't I seen your big sister recently, there seems to be no news coming out." Didn't she say that she was helping the prince of the Eastern Thunderbolt Kingdom find the murderer, and I don't know how she found it. According to me, the emperor is really, how can he leave such an important matter to that little hoof to do? If we neglect others, and then they will be unhappy, then we will be unlucky to leave the country. ”
When Su Wanyue heard Ruan's mention of Su Wanqing, the work in her hand also stopped, and she followed to help: "What my mother said is right, who is the prince of Dongli Kingdom, he is the only heir of Dongli Kingdom, and he will be the emperor in the future." Someone dared to poison the prince in Tianli Country, and the emperor still trusted that little slut so much, I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup that little slut poured into the emperor, and even the six princes have always favored her like this. ”
Ruan Shi looked at Su Wanyue's somewhat indignant appearance, thought about it, and called a maid and said, "You go to Caiwei Garden to explore the wind and see what the eldest lady has been doing recently." ”
Although the little maid didn't want to go to Caiweiyuan to provoke the terrible eldest lady, she didn't dare to refuse the second aunt's order at the moment, after all, she was just a little maid.
So she had no choice but to answer and run away.
In Caiwei Garden, there are not many maids, and Su Wanqing thinks they are too noisy and in the way on weekdays, so she has already sent out most of the maids. There are only a few maids who are handy and more clever on weekdays.
The little maid peeked at Caiwei Garden for a long time, and found that those maids were just guarding the door, and no one went in to serve, and she was a little stunned for a while.
Then, the two maids guarding the door were bored and chatted.
"You say, why hasn't the eldest lady come back? It's been more than half a month, I'm afraid something hasn't happened, right? ”
Another maid responded: "Yes, but the eldest lady is so smart, how can something happen?" I'm just afraid that if someone comes to look for the eldest lady, they will find that the eldest lady is gone. When the time comes, it won't be easy. ”
When the little maid heard this, she covered her mouth in disbelief, and couldn't believe her ears. What the? The eldest lady has not been in her own Rose Garden? And disappeared for more than half a month? Although she has a marriage contract with the sixth prince, this is a woman who has not left the cabinet after all, if this matter spreads, it will ruin the reputation of the eldest lady.
The little maid didn't dare to stay any longer, and ran back to Ruan's residence in a puff of smoke.
Ruan Shi listened to the maid's report, narrowed his eyes and said, "What are you talking about, Su Wanqing actually didn't stay in her Caiwei Garden, and she disappeared for so long?" No wonder, I haven't seen her during this time, and I haven't heard from her. Dare to love, this little hoof is not in the house at all! No, I will report this matter to my lord at once, so that he can 'educate' his daughter well. ”
Thinking of this, Ruan Shi immediately went to Su Jianlian's study.
Su Jianlian was processing some documents, raised his head after listening to Ruan's words, and said with some displeasure: "Why are you looking for Wanqing all day long?" She has been busy helping the emperor during this time, how can she not be in the mansion? I see you've been in a hurry lately, that's why you've been doing things like this all day. ”
Ruan Shi saw that Su Jianlian was so partial to Su Wanqing, although he knew that it was not once or twice, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and said: "Master, it's not that the concubine is targeting the eldest lady, but the eldest lady is really not in the mansion." Just now, the concubine listened to what her maid said, you better go and take a look, if the eldest lady is really not in the mansion, then if it spreads, it will not be good for the reputation of the eldest lady. ”
Su Jianlian originally didn't want to pay attention to Ruan, but he couldn't stand her chattering beside her, and what Ruan said was not unreasonable. He thought about it, but got up and went to Caiwei Garden.
Ruan followed behind Su Jianlian, his eyes full of pride.
This time, she saw how the little hoof could escape!
Su Jianlian strode to Caiwei Garden, and the two maids guarding the door looked at it, it's over, why is the master here. This eldest lady hasn't come back yet, but you must not let the master find out!
They hurriedly leaned over and said hesitantly, "Master, why are you here?" ”
Su Jianlian originally thought that what Ruan said was wrong, but he saw the eyes of the two maids flickering, and it seemed that they really responded to what Ruan said. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then he said lightly: "Why can't you come to see your daughter?" ”
The two maids glanced at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes. What else did the two maids want to say, Ruan Shi had already stepped forward, pushed the two maids away, raised his eyebrows and said, "Master, how can you two little maids stop you?" Hurry up and open the door, and let the master go in and visit the eldest lady. ”
After Ruan finished speaking, he didn't care about the two maids, and opened the door first. Sure enough, it was empty, without a trace.
Su Jianlian looked inside, frowned, glared at the two maids and said, "What about your eldest lady?" Where did it go? If something happens to her, can you take responsibility? ”
Su Jianlian's appearance really frightened the two little maids, they knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, just about to recruit from the truth.
A familiar voice suddenly came from behind Su Jianlian: "Daddy, second aunt, are you outside Wanqing's room, do you have something important?" ”
As soon as Su Jianlian heard Su Wanqing's voice, he hurriedly turned around, only to see Wanqing pushing a wheelchair and looking at them a little strangely. And the person sitting in the wheelchair is Pei Xiu.
Su Jianlian didn't have time to say anything, so he bowed slightly to Pei Xiu.
"The Six Princes."
Pei Xiu nodded, and said gently: "I'm sorry, Prime Minister Su, I'm worried about you." Wanqing came to the palace early in the morning to accompany Xiu, and she rushed back this time, Prime Minister Su shouldn't mind, right? ”
Su Jianlian was relieved when he heard that Su Wanqing had entered the palace, and then he glared at the somewhat overwhelmed Ruan Shi viciously, and then said to Pei Xiu with a smile: "Since Wanqing is entering the palace, then there will be nothing to do." It's not too early, so it's better for the six princes to stay and dine. ”
Pei Xiu nodded, and the Ruan family on the side was about to leave, when Su Wanqing spoke: "Second aunt, don't be in a hurry to leave first." ”
