Chapter 33 │ Old Love
At dusk, Linghu Qingge took Shen Shu and half a car of sauce-flavored elbows and wine-stuffed hoofs back to the palace, as soon as he entered the door, he only felt quiet and quiet, Steward Shen passed by to ask for peace, Linghu Qingge stopped and asked, "Where is the county king?" ”
Steward Shen immediately replied: "Mrs. Hui, the king of the county and a few friends went to the western suburbs to ride horses and shoot hunting. ”
Well?
Linghu Qingge listened, and knew what was going on with a little brain, it was almost late autumn now, and seeing that more than a month later was the royal Yuan Ri Festival banquet, the hunting grounds in the western suburbs had already been closed and decorated, where could I ride a horse and shoot hunting?
This is clearly Zuo Changan didn't want to hide it from her but had to hide it from the housekeeper, after listening to it, Ling Hu Qingge nodded meaningfully: "Then when did he say he would come back today?" ”
"The king of the county said that he would come back later today, and let his wife eat first." Steward Shen said, and saw Linghu Qingge turn around and pointed: "Let's go to the East Market to buy some food and come back, let's add dishes to the next people in the evening." ”
Steward Shen smiled and said, "Thank you, madam, that's okay, then I'll go to the kitchen to get busy, madam, and go to rest, I'll call you when dinner is ready." ”
After Steward Shen left, Shen Shu quietly pulled Linghu Qingge and asked, "Miss, did the county king really go to the western suburbs?" ”
Linghu Qingge only smiled and said: "You also believe this, and you will go back to the snow clearly." ”
Shen Shu pouted after hearing this and said: "Miss, you said that the county king doesn't have any rich flowers around him, but he likes the wild flowers on the side of the road, and he is not clean, and I don't know what the snow girl is capable of that time, and the county king can also look down on her." ”
Linghu Qingge smiled faintly: "What about wild flowers, what about rich flowers, but if you like it, you have to have some means, do you think that Hui Xue was young at the beginning, how could he win the first place in the building, was it really given for nothing?" ”
Shen Shu frowned and said: "But Miss, if the king of the county really likes her, if you come back one day and tell your wife that you married her as a concubine, is that ......?"
"If Hui Xue only wants a concubine, things are not so complicated, a sentence or two is enough, why sing the scene of the Taoyuan Pavilion ferry at the night party, and even Mo Huiyin is calculated, why do you think she has to go around in such a big circle? I'm afraid that behind this scene, there are other people, and Hui Xue is just a chess piece. ”
Shen Shu doesn't understand this, she only knows that no matter how big the snow can be this time, after all, she is just a fireworks woman, even if she enters the house, she is just a concubine, and she can't threaten the status of her own young lady, now, she is a little hungry, when will this dinner start.........
In the early winter, there was a heavy snowfall, and the days were calm, but the weather was cold, which made Hu Qingge more and more sleepy and didn't want to get up, sometimes for an hour or two, it was time to have lunch.
At the beginning of the heavy snow on this day, Linghu Qingge's eyes had not yet opened, so he heard Shen Shu hurriedly push open the door, and a cold snow gas poured in, Linghu Qingge immediately put the quilt on his head, but saw Shen Shu's hands and eyes were quick, and he tore off the quilt and said, "Miss, don't sleep!" Over there in Xiangguo's Mansion, the young master has sent a letter. ”
Linghu Qingge was originally humming and wanted to hide to the side, but when he heard this, he suddenly sat up as if a carp was stiff: "What did you say?" It's true! Prepare the carriage and I'll go back! ”
After that, Linghu Qingge immediately got up, and no matter what color of clothes he worn, he put on a big coat and pulled Shen Shu to run out, Shen Shu panted while following: "Miss, slow down!" It's just snowing, don't fall ........."
However, Linghu Qingge ran faster.
It was also quietly to the side gate of Xiangguo Mansion, and I saw Linghu Tingxu waiting for her there early, wearing a cyan cloak with good fox fur, which seemed to be a lot rounder, and looked at this day is honey and oil, and Linghu Tingxu stood on the side of Qu Liuzhen, who had not been seen for a long time, and went to Loulan for a trip, lost a lot of weight, and beckoned to Linghu Qingge: "This is this." ”
Linghu Qingge wanted to say a few words of greeting in the past, but listened to Qu Liuyu and said: "Don't need those politeness, I'll just talk to you, this jade pendant, with the rare jade color in Loulan, a thousand taels of gold is also difficult to buy, this kind of blue jade, in Loulan is called the pupil, like the color of the depths of the extremely cold glacier, and the carving is fine, not all skilled craftsmen can carve it, I inquired about one of the best workshops, and only after asking did I know that the business in the past few years, the biggest list is Mo Huiyin's list, about four or five years agoAt that time, Mo Huiyin was very close to the jade caravans that came and went, and the shopkeeper of the workshop also said that Mo Huiyin was generous, handsome, and had a deep memory. ”
"So, he must remember the name of this jade pendant."
Linghu Qingge took the jade pendant from Qu Liuqing's hand and looked up and asked, Qu Liuqing looked at Linghu Tingxu with some hesitation, and sighed quite a lot: "I asked, this jade pendant...... It's called snow return. ”
Linghu Qingge was stunned after hearing this, and looked down at this jade pendant, under the faint blue jade, I don't know how many nights have been beautiful......
She suddenly felt that the jade pendant was a little prickly, and turned her head and stuffed it to Shen Shu for safekeeping.
Qu Liuqing and Linghu Tingxu glanced at each other, a little worried but didn't know how to comfort them, but just for a moment, Linghu Qingge raised his head and said: "That's it, no matter why this jade pendant didn't fall into Hui Xue's hands, but gave it to me, it doesn't matter anymore, the important thing is that now I have figured out the relationship, if there is any incident in the future, I will have to talk to him." ”
Linghu Tingxu was quite relieved to hear it: "Yes, this little woman is jealous and makes a fuss, playing a trick, I'm afraid that she doesn't have such a far-reaching plan, just use it more, besides, for more than a month, it has been calm and peaceful, I estimate that the whole city praises you and the county king and Meimei, she should also retreat from the difficulties, and there will be no more storms." ”
"If she is calm, I will naturally not delve into it, this jade pendant, I will return it to Mo Huiyin when he comes back, and if there are other things, just take advantage of the situation," Linghu Qingge said, seemingly relieved, glanced at Qu Liuyu and said, "Just for this matter, I also troubled Brother Qu, this trip is hard, let's go out for a drink." ”
"Forget it, your house has been a little busy in the past two days, and you must not be able to take care of me, so let's go back first, I haven't been home for more than a month, I'll go first, you talk."
Linghu Qingge watched Qu Liuqi leave blankly, and turned back in confusion and asked, "What's going on in the house?" ”
Linghu Tingxu said: "What else can I do, but it is the marriage of the two younger sisters, my father was optimistic about the son of the old friend of Lord Qu, I heard that he was doing royal business, and it was decent, he came to the house some time ago as a guest, but the emperor has not been in good health recently, and his father has a lot of things to do in the palace, and now he has to be free, and he made an appointment with them to come as a guest yesterday, who knows that the third sister doesn't like it, and she cried for a day and refused to marry." ”
"Clear the snow?" Linghu Qingge frowned when he heard this, "Why is Qingxuan's marriage still unsettled, so she is in a hurry to marry the younger one?" ”
Linghu Tingxu said helplessly: "Father said, Qingxuan is timid but good-looking, although she is a concubine, but with her talent and appearance, with the son of a four-grade official family, she can also be a wife, so naturally she is not worried, Qingxue is smart and clever, and she is wronged in the inner house." ”
Linghu Qingge rolled his eyes when he heard this: "This father, he is busy with affairs, and he is always not in the inner house, so he naturally doesn't know that although Qingxue is shrewd, she is also high-spirited, even the four-grade official family may not be happy with her, let alone the family of merchants." ”
"However, yesterday I saw that although the Huangfu family is a family of businessmen, the prince of the Huangfu looks also elegant and delicate, soft-spoken, and if he is moved, his father also intends to promote him."
Linghu Qingge was silent after hearing this, she didn't care very much, after all, since she was a child, Linghu Qingxue has always been yin and yang, and she also made herself uncomfortable, Linghu Tingxu didn't plan to say anything, just pulled Linghu Qingge and said: "Everyone has their own lives, this early in the morning, it's cold outside, I'll take you to the Huaijia teahouse to drink a cup of hot tea, I heard that their tea is delicious......"
