Chapter 70: Follow Me
"Chess pieces? You say she's a pawn? Lu Linlang seemed to have been splashed with cold water for a moment, her body stiffened, and a lot of bad information poured into her mind, and she also stood up violently, "Did you deliberately arrange for her to enter the palace?" That's why you want me to help? ”
"It's not that I arranged it on purpose, it's just that I happened to know that she was in the ranks of the show girls this time, so I just took advantage of the trend." At this time, Murong Zheng calmed down and looked at Lu Linlang lightly, "It's just a trivial matter, but you have made up so many stories in your brain, it's really boring." ”
Shen Yuanfu never dreamed that a fire would burn into his yard, and the entire Shen family compound was busy all night, and it didn't stop until dawn, Shen Yuanfu carefully counted the treasures he had hidden.
"Daddy, what's going on? How could it suddenly catch fire in the middle of the night? Shen Ruolan also hurriedly put on her clothes and rushed to Shen Yuanfu's courtyard, relieved to see that others were okay, but she still felt a little weird, and then turned her head and instructed the girl behind her, "You go to the east courtyard to have a look." ”
The girl nodded, turned around and ran out quickly, Shen Yuanfu's hair was scattered, and the clothes on his body were also tattered, and he didn't have time to take care of himself, "Two thieves came at night, and I don't know what happened and suddenly set a fire in my house, but fortunately, these treasures of mine have been rescued, but this yard may have to be repaired well." ”
Shen Yuanfu turned his head to look at the burned yard, sighed heavily, and felt a little unspeakably flustered in his heart, this courtyard was originally the main courtyard of the head of the Lu family, and he had also moved here since he forcibly occupied Lu Ji Xiuzhuang.
At first, he was always a little flustered, but as he got used to it, he didn't think too much about it, but tonight something like this suddenly happened......
"There's a thief in the house?" Shen Ruolan frowned, "It seems that the guards in the house need to be strengthened, this courtyard needs to be repaired, and Daddy will move to Mother first." ”
Zhang also hurried over at this time, and saw the blackened yard in front of him, and the foot was unstable, Shen Ruolan reached out to support her, "Daddy is fine, there is no loss of things, don't worry." ”
"That's good, that's good." Zhang patted his chest, "The weather is getting warmer, you have to be careful everywhere in the house, I will order them to go down tomorrow and let them check everywhere carefully." ”
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Shen Ruolan stood in the middle of the courtyard, watching this good yard being burned to this appearance, and always felt that this matter was inseparable from Lu Linlang.
Shen Yuanfu also went to change his clothes at this time, cleaned up decently, and came out to see Shen Ruolan with a solemn expression, "Ruolan, have you found something?" ”
"I have already sent someone to the East Courtyard to see, we just arrested Lu Linlang, and there was a fire in the courtyard, I'm afraid this matter has something to do with her."
Shen Ruolan had already expected that she seemed to have a little calmness, but she suddenly remembered something and frowned, "What about the dress?" Is she ready? ”
"I've asked the girl to bring the clothes, and they look like they're half-done, but the gold, silver and jade are gone." The girl told the truth, and the girl behind her walked in with her clothes, Shen Ruolan hurriedly strode forward and took the clothes in her hand, and unfolded them to take a look.
Suddenly, a piece of paper fell out of it, Shen Yuanfu stepped forward and bent down to pick it up, and the sketch of this dress was drawn on the paper, and it was obvious that there were still many details that had not been completed.
"Okay, she's Lu Linlang, she actually managed to escape, not to mention, and set fire to your yard, I'll take someone to ask her for an explanation!" Shen Ruolan said and put down the clothes in her hand, and was about to go out with a fierce momentum.
"Wait." Shen Yuanfu suddenly stopped her, sighed softly, and glanced at the sky outside, "It's not too early now, you can send this dress to the county lord first, the county lord will enter the palace today, this matter must not be delayed." ”
"Into the palace?" Shen Ruolan stopped, looked back at Shen Yuanfu with some doubts, "Today is not the day of the emperor's draft girl?" What did the county lord do when he entered the palace? And this dress......"
"This dress was customized by King Annan, and today the draft girl in the palace, the county lord is also going to be sent to the palace, why do you say?" Shen Yuanfu frowned tightly and looked at the dress in the girl's hand.
Shen Ruolan's eyes widened suddenly, "The county lord is also going to enter the palace to draft a girl?" ”
Shen Yuanfu nodded, there was a bit of meaning in his eyes, "Although this dress has not been completed, the overall effect has been made, you just send it to the palace and tell him that this is Lu Linlang's own design, if it delays the county lord's major event, we don't need to do it, naturally someone will clean her up for us." ”
How do you look at the dress in the girl's hand How is it a semi-finished product, if Su Liuli is allowed to wear it into the palace draft girl, I don't know what kind of turmoil it will cause, but she only needs to bite to death This is Lu Linlang's design, and then Lu Linlang will go back after making this set of dresses for the county lord......
In this way, no matter what happens, the person the palace is looking for is Lu Linlang, and it has nothing to do with them Shen Ji Xiuzhuang.
"What Daddy said is, then I'll send the clothes to the palace now." Watching the fire from the other side, you can watch the excitement without mixing in yourself, and not to mention the means of the Annan Palace, they have the support of the current regent behind them, and the little Lu Linlang has the ability to reach the sky, but he can't turn over the palm of the regent's hand.
There has been no news from the Shen family, and Lu Linlang is worried, for fear that the Shen family will send someone to smash her embroidery yard, but two days have passed, and there is no news, and no one has come to the door.
Suddenly seeing someone walking in from outside the courtyard gate, she was startled, thinking that the Shen family had sent someone to find her, and when she looked up, she saw that it was Murong Zheng who came back from outside, looking like a dusty man.
Seeing that Lu Linlang was startled by him, and looked behind him, he knew what she was worried about, lowered his eyes and patted the dust on his sleeve, "No one came to the door, you can rest assured, it has been two days since the incident, and the trouble they are coming to you is long over." ”
"That's good." Lu Linlang breathed a sigh of relief and put down the things in his hand, "How is it?" Did you hear the news? Has Miss Xu been chosen? ”
"It will take three days for this kind of thing to be announced, and the result will probably be known tomorrow, it's useless for you to always worry, you arranged well on the island in the middle of the lake that day, and I don't think anything will go wrong."
Murong Zheng walked to Lu Linlang's side and glanced at the wooden stake next to the grape shelf she was busy with, she didn't get it right with a lot of effort, Murong Zheng simply reached out and took it, and placed it properly for her in three or two strokes.
"It's still Brother Murong who is the most powerful, and nothing is in your hands." Lu Linlang hurriedly poured a glass of water from the side and handed it over, with a courteous face, Murong Zheng drank it in one go, and Lu Linlang's praise was very useful in his heart.
put down the water glass, but saw that Lu Linlang was still a little worried, "Is there anything else you want to help with?" ”
"It's nothing, but I'm still a little worried." The sky gradually darkened, Lu Linlang asked Qinghong to put away all the things in the yard, and asked Murong Zheng to sit in her room and make a pot of tea again.
"Although the Shen family didn't send someone to come to the door, which saved a lot of trouble, but I always felt a little uneasy, I escaped from their house and set a fire, they actually let me go like this, according to the temperament of the Shen family, it shouldn't be."
Murong Zheng had always been casual in her room, and looked at her with raised eyebrows, "You can still think of such a deep question, it seems that you still have some brains." ”
"If I had no brains, would I have survived until now?" Lu Linlang glared at him, "You have been going out a lot in the past two days, and you haven't heard of anything?" ”
"Your fire burned down a courtyard of the Shen family, and they have already found someone to repair it, but there is indeed one more thing that may solve your doubts." Murong Zheng put down the teacup and spoke in a slow tone.
Lu Linlang came to him in a little anxious and politely added him a cup of tea, "What's the matter?" Tell me quickly, I've been worried about not being able to sleep for the past two days, and I'm afraid I'm going to die suddenly if I continue like this. ”
"You still can't sleep?" Murong Zheng's tone was full of suspicion, "Then who came back the first day and slept until evening, and slept until he was unconscious?" ”
Lu Linlang smiled awkwardly, "That's not the point, tell me what's going on." ”
"When I went to Shen's house to rescue you that night, you were making clothes, do you know who the clothes were made for?" Murong Zheng put away his teasing expression, his expression became serious, Lu Linlang nodded, "I know, it's for the county lord." ”
"On the day Miss Xu entered the palace, the county lord also entered the palace." Murong Zheng's eyes were indifferent, and he couldn't see what kind of expression he was on his handsome face for a while, this matter seemed to be out of his expectations, and it seemed to be in his expectation, but he felt a little ridiculous in his heart.
In order to stabilize his power, the regent was almost eager to send all his forces into the palace, but the more he did this, the more he would arouse the dissatisfaction of the ministers of the court.
This time, Murong Zheng had a merit in exterminating the bandits, and the emperor asked him what reward he wanted, he didn't want gold and silver, and he didn't want beauties, but only said that he wanted to return to the mansion that originally belonged to the Marquis of Pingyuan.
The house has been empty since it was beheaded, no one dares to live in such a house, more than a hundred unjust souls, maybe they are floating in that courtyard every day, Murong Zheng opened his mouth and wanted to go back, and the emperor nodded and agreed without thinking about it.
For this matter, the regent went to the Chang'an Palace to ask the emperor's intentions after the next dynasty, and the emperor was a little dissatisfied and lost his temper, and this matter reached the ears of the civil and military officials, and many people privately talked about the regent's hand stretched too long.
