Chapter 55: Conspiracy 3
Hongling, Xiaoqing, and Xiuxiu came to the hall together, Hongling led Xiuxiu to sit on the side of the table, Xiaoqing asked the servants to bring the food, and then sat down together.
After a while, the room was full of rice fragrance, and all kinds of delicacies with color and fragrance were served on the table one after another, Hongling and Xiaoqing were quite intoxicated by it, only Xiuxiu picked two mouthfuls of food, and then hesitantly took the chopsticks, and did not put down the chopsticks, looking not very appetizing.
Xiaoqing quickly noticed it, and asked worriedly, "Xiuxiu, do you still have any discomfort?" Did you take the medicine in the morning? Is the ointment applied? ”
Xiuxiu immediately came back to her senses, pulled a stiff smile out, and said: "Xiaoqing, don't worry, I'm fine, I have already taken the medicine, I have already put away the ointment, the trauma on my body is almost completely healed now, there is no need to use it anymore, the ointment is extremely precious, I am reluctant to use it again, keep it in the future if I need it again."
Xiaoqing looked at Xiuxiu suspiciously, "Isn't that just an ordinary ointment?" Where is it precious? ”
Xiuxiu pursed her lips and glanced at Hong Ling hesitantly, and said: "This ointment was handed over to me by the prince, it was in the early years when the prince went to the south to study and met a famous traveling doctor in the rivers and lakes, and it took a long time to get it, it is said that the ointment is extremely exquisite, and I don't know how much effort it takes to find medicinal materials, and it takes five years to get this small bottle after boiling it into a paste to make it into its current appearance."
Speaking of this, Xiuxiu looked at Hongling carefully, bit her lower lip, and saw that her complexion had not changed much, before continuing: "Actually, this ointment was originally taken by the prince for me to use for the mother, and then it has been placed here for me, probably because I was too seriously injured this time, so the prince found out this ointment and handed it to Xiaoqing, and asked her to help me apply it."
Hong Ling was surprised, raised her eyebrows suspiciously, and asked, "Xiuxiu, you said that this ointment was given to me by the prince, why did you use it for me?" When else did you use this ointment on me, and why didn't I have an impression? ”
Xiuxiu saw that Hongling suddenly reacted, but she was afraid that she would be angry, so she lowered her head nervously, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she mustered up her courage and said hesitantly: "Niangniang still remembers, when Father-in-law Xu gave you a lesson, you suffered a lot of flesh and skin, at that time you were always exhausted, and you couldn't get up in pain, but miraculously just slept well, and it was all thanks to the effect of this ointment."
Hong Ling twisted her eyebrows and thought about it for a while, she was really good at that time, at that time I thought it was Liu Ling'er's natural bone surprise, but why did I have no impression of using this ointment?
"At that time, I sneaked into Niangniang's dormitory late every night to give medicine to Niangniang, and the ointment was also given to me by the prince at that time, when I showed the prince that Niangniang was abused by Father-in-law Xu, and the prince was forced to come out directly to protect Niangniang, so he handed over this ointment to me, and let me use this ointment as a shelter to alleviate the pain of Niangniang's flesh and skin."
"But why don't I seem to feel anything when you put the ointment on me? I didn't even know there was such a thing."
Seeing Xiuxiu biting her lower lip hard, almost about to lose the new meat that had just grown again, Hongling slowly put her hand on the back of her hand, "You don't have to be like this, I won't ignore you because of these things."
Xiuxiu raised her head and looked at Hong Ling for a moment, and saw peace and stability in Hong Ling's eyes, before she finally breathed a sigh of relief, put her mind at ease and said: "Actually, I have been with the prince since I was a child, and I learned martial arts very early, and naturally I also know a little about some meridians and acupoints.
Hongling was already distracted when she heard the word martial arts, flying eaves and walking on the wall, shooting stones and drinking feathers, and stabbing tigers...... It's not too handsome, by the way, the white shadow I met with Xiaoqing outside the mansion last time, could it be that he is also a very strong martial arts master? If you get in touch and have a friendship, wouldn't it be equivalent to hugging an extraordinarily thick thigh, and you won't be able to walk sideways anywhere in the future.
Seeing Hongling looking at herself with a confused look, and occasionally sneering a few times, Xiuxiu saw this situation, and immediately leaned over and slightly wrapped her hand around Hongling, Hongling instinctively dodged back, and looked at Xiuxiu and winked a few times, before she struggled to pop out of her mouth with a complete sentence: "You, what are you going to do?" ”
Xiuxiu's face turned red, and she withdrew her hand uncomfortably, and said, "Xiuxiu thinks that Niangniang has committed the disease of studying scumbags again."
Before Hongling could react, Xiaoqing immediately rushed over and asked Xiuxiu eagerly, "Is this what the prince found out last time?" How can this disease be cured? ”
Hong Ling laughed dryly, turned around stiffly to face the table full of delicacies, and was thinking about how to skip the matter, Chen Jinye stepped in and sat down with a resentful face.
It was a good time to divert the topic, and Hong Ling immediately asked Chen Jinye earnestly, "Didn't the prince say that he would go to Yu's place to eat?" ”
Chen Jinye rolled his eyes angrily, "It's not because of you, since I told Feifei about you, she asked me to discuss with you how to take revenge first, and she didn't let me stay for a moment."
Hongling only felt that her mouth was dry, knowing that this was not a good topic to talk about, the little maid handed over a pair of dishes and chopsticks at the time, Chen Jinye picked up the chopsticks and competed with the food angrily, still feeling unhappy, so he simply put down the chopsticks and looked at Hongling unwillingly, "Did you give Feifei any ecstasy, why is she so nervous with you?" ”
Hong Ling forcibly and calmly picked up the teacup, showed a gentle smile, and said, "Maybe it's because I explained the contract between you and me to her."
"You told her about it?"
"Naturally, I want to say it, Ling'er is not afraid that it will cause unnecessary misunderstandings in the future, which will make the Yu family feel guilty."
Chen Jinye narrowed her eyes dangerously, and Hong Ling pretended not to know to avoid his gaze, in fact, what she really thought at the beginning was that he cared so much about the Yu clan, if he broke the treaty one day, he could use the clan to tie him up, so that he didn't dare to threaten him too much, but he didn't expect it to be effective so quickly.
Chen Jinye saw that Liu Ling'er really seemed to have regained his former intelligence, in fact, he was surprised for a moment when he first entered, Xiuxiu was also here, and in less than half an hour, the two of them untied the knot and reconciled as before?
Chen Jinye glanced at the few people present and asked slowly, "What?" This king has only been gone for a while, and you can eat at the same table again? ”
Hongling glanced at him proudly, took Xiaoqing and Xiuxiu's hands left and right, and said, "Is the prince very jealous of me, can you embrace the beauty left and right into his arms?" ”
Chen Jinye raised his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his mouth hooked a beautiful arc, and while holding up the teacup, he said indifferently: "It's okay, as long as Ling'er is okay and don't kidnap my Feifei."
Hong Ling sneered and smiled on her back, if she had never dared to be so presumptuous in front of him before, because of this incident, she unconsciously really regarded Chen Jinye as an ordinary friend.
With Hongling's laughter, Chen Jinye lifted the chopsticks and ate for a while, before he was full, he leaned back comfortably, looked at Hongling and the others, and said: "How do you want to take revenge on Luo, I will try to cooperate, you can say"
I saw Hongling slowly pulling out a weird laugh, and even Chen Jinye couldn't help but get goosebumps in disgust, "How big of an idea are you?" Why is the expression so hideous?"
Hong Ling glanced at a few people and asked, "Do you know what Luo is most afraid of?" ”
Chen Jinye frowned slightly, "Patriarch of the Luo clan? ”
Xiuxiu and Xiaoqing glanced at each other blankly and slowly shook their heads.
Hong Ling smiled slightly, shook her head at Chen Jinye proudly, and saw that several people were confused, and announced with a smile: "The most feared thing by the Luo clan should be the prince."
"Me?"
Hongling nodded firmly, "It's you"
Chen Jinye shrank his nose slightly and raised his eyebrows, "I won't ask you why you are me, I just want to know, if the Luo clan is afraid of me, what do you want?" ”
"Naturally, I directly use the convenience of my identity, stick to you every day and charm you, let her jump out of her feet angrily, and then twist her fiercely, so that she loses face in front of you, I think if she really cares about the prince so much, then there is nothing more embarrassing than making her embarrassed in front of her sweetheart."
Hearing Hongling's idea, Chen Jinye locked his brows and asked with incredulity, "How did you come up with such an idea?" ”
"Because I'm smart!"
Chen Jinye held his cheeks and looked at Hongling, "Your plan is good, but there is only one drawback."
"What's the downside?"
"This king will not be completely on your side on the bright side, no matter how reasonable it is"
Hongling smirked and froze on her face, "So what do you mean by trying to cooperate?" ”
"As long as there is no obvious evidence left, this king will pretend that he can't find out that the murderer is you or something."
"That's it...... Such? ”
"Or what do you think?"
"Didn't you say you could beat her up before?"
"You can beat it, as long as you don't leave obvious evidence, by the way, don't send Xiuxiu to go, it's too dangerous......"
Hong Ling was stunned there, looking at Chen Jinye's mouth opening and closing, she only felt like 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping past......
"So you said in the morning that it was your real plan to send out the news to lure her to my courtyard, and then tell me to pretend that I had fallen at her feet?"
"You can play on that?"
"How to play?"
"That's your business, remember not to implicate Xiuxiu"
......
Hong Ling has long since lost any helpless or speechless words in her heart, she just feels that this guy never seems to have seriously considered revenge, and the whole thing is just a boring joke for him from the beginning to the present.
However, Hongling already has a more interesting plan in mind......
