Chapter 177: Goodbye Emperor
The people on the scroll look more realistic and delicate because of the color, compared to the portrait of the villain that Han Wulou took at the beginning, this one is more like trapping a real person in the painting.
Moreover, whether it is eyebrows, eyes or shape, it is too similar to herself, Wei Rui was unconsciously stunned, and when she realized it, she had already shed tears, reached out and touched her face, she heard Guan Qing say, "This is your mother." ”
Wei Rui took the scroll, her fingers trembled slightly, and she even felt a little unable to stand, she leaned against the table next to her, and after a long time, said to Guan Qing: "Thank you for painting such a beautiful portrait for her." ”
Probably because Wei Rui's reaction reminded Guan Qing of some things when he was a child, so there was a rare nostalgic expression on his face, and Jing Xing's eyes were hiding behind the cup, secretly looking at the pair of cousins.
"When I saw the look on your face when I heard me say that I was dripping blood to confess my relatives, I knew that you must be my cousin. Only an aunt would teach you such a smart daughter, and only with your attitude will you not cheat. ”
Wei Rui was stunned, Guan Qing was testing her, too, how could she even recognize her blood by blood by recognizing the blood relationship of her own person? Hehe, it's her who thinks too much.
Thinking of this, Wei Rui was a little embarrassed, but Guan Qing continued: "This portrait is given to you, I have always wanted to find my aunt's descendants and let them keep this painting well, and the hard work has finally paid off." ”
Wei Rui pursed her lips, then nodded solemnly and said, "I will definitely keep it well." ”
Jing Xing looked at him like a brother and sister, and even felt that he had any misunderstanding about these two people before, he took a deep breath, and finally stood up and said, "It's okay, I'll go first." ”
Compared with the cheap cousin she just recognized, Wei Rui naturally preferred Jing Xing, so she hurriedly waved her hand to Guan Qing and chased Jing Xing back to the annex.
When I entered the door, I happened to meet Mo Wenming, who had finished detoxifying, and after briefly inquiring about the situation, Wei Rui pulled through Mo Wenming's medicine box, took a bottle of medicine and ran to see Chonghua.
Jingxing and Mo Wenming were left, the scene was somewhat embarrassing, when Jingxing wanted to leave, Mo Wenming seemed to hesitate for a while before saying: "Don't blame Wei Rui, she is for Jingyue's good, if you are willing to believe me, I can restore Han Wulou's leg to ninety and a half." ”
Jing Xing turned his head abruptly and asked eagerly, "Is this true?" ”
Mo Wenming nodded, and said, "She only said that in front of the emperor after she asked me, so she was fighting for a chance for Jingyue." ”
Jing Xing's heart was turbulent, he was afraid that Wei Rui was really Guan Qing's person before, but now when he heard Mo Wenming say this, he was inexplicably excited in his heart, and he wanted to thank Mo Wenming, but turned around, but found that the person was gone.
Rushing to the door of Chonghua House, Jingxing felt that his mood was a lot lighter, in the capital, he rarely had such a relaxed time, Mingzhou came out of the house, and saw him with a smile on his face, and seemed to be a little disbelieving.
After briefly asking about Chonghua's condition, Jingxing was eager to see Wei Rui and apologize to her and apologize to her, but he waited for about a quarter of an hour, and Wei Rui didn't come out.
When I opened the door, I found that because Chonghua fell asleep, Wei Rui was originally sitting next to him and watching, but she didn't block the sleepiness and fell asleep.
At this time, he heard Mingzhou say that Wei Rui almost didn't close his eyes all night because of the fact that he was going to enter the palace today, and he must have been sleepy because of this.
Thinking of what he just said, Jing Xing couldn't wait to go back in time.
Let Mingzhou guard Chonghua, Jingxing hugged Wei Rui and sent her to his house, but she didn't wake up all the way, and when she put it on the bed, Wei Rui woke up.
However, because she had just woken up, she was a little confused, so she didn't know what was going on, she hugged Jingxing's neck and refused to let go. Jingxing hugged her and sat on the edge of the bed.
Wei Rui saw that Jing Xing's side face was rarely so soft, so he said without thinking: "Lord Wang, you are so gentle today." ”
Jingxing rarely got such an evaluation, and he couldn't say what it was like in his heart, so he hesitated and patted her back and said, "Sleep." ”
Wei Rui fell asleep again, and when Jingxing was leaving, he leaned into her ear and said "thank you".
But unfortunately, Wei Rui didn't hear it.
Although I don't know why Jing Xing's attitude suddenly improved, no one would be angry with a kind person, so Wei Rui and Jing Xing got along very happily in the following days, plus Han Wulou's leg recovered well, although he couldn't go to the ground yet, but his bones were slowly growing.
Therefore, Jingxing originally planned to resign to the emperor and return to Minglang County.
Mingzhou was not happy to go back, and Wei Rui was naturally unwilling.
Chonghua's poison has not been completely detoxified, although the antidote developed by Mo Wenming is very effective in the medicine man, but for Chonghua there will still be occasional recurrence, if you leave at this time, the person who detoxified Chonghua must change again.
This is unacceptable to Chonghua, and it is also quite cruel to Mingzhou.
In addition, Wei Rui's dream of a marriage agency in Beijing has not yet had time to be implemented, so she just gave up, of course she didn't do it, and finally came once.
So Jingxing's proposal was unanimously opposed by everyone, but at this time, the emperor suddenly summoned Wei Rui and Jingxing into the palace.
This time, Jing Xing's premonition was very bad.
As expected, there were still those four people in the palace, even the father-in-law who was serving beside the emperor who was the background board, and in the huge hall, Wei Rui felt that his footsteps could echo with a special sound.
The emperor got straight to the point, saying that the road back to the west encountered an avalanche and could not pass for the time being, so for at least three months, Jingxing stayed in the capital to assist the right minister and deal with related matters.
At this time, Jingxing's unspoken words and deeds were unable to speak in a short period of time, so he could only agree.
In this regard, Wei Rui was very happy, and not only this matter, the emperor said that he specially asked people to check Wei Rui's store in Minglang County, and felt that her store was very good, which not only increased the income of Minglang County but also solved the marriage of many marriageable men and women, so he supported her to open a similar store in the capital.
With the emperor's approval, isn't this a nationwide pass? Wei Rui was naturally overjoyed, and even felt that the emperor, who looked a little greasy that day, suddenly became handsome.
However, in the next moment, the emperor suddenly announced that he planned to adopt Wei Rui's suggestion, in order to avoid Jingxing's dissatisfaction with his marriage in the future, so he decided that if Jingxing had someone he liked in the future, as long as the right minister was willing to agree to such a marriage, then he would not agree.
After speaking, he also glanced at Guan Qing, put a high hat on Guan Qing and said, "If Aiqing thinks that this matter is appropriate, then there must be no problem." ”
Jing Xing's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, Wei Rui also took a deep breath, finally Jing Xing didn't care about Jing Yue's affairs with her, the emperor made this decision at this time, isn't this deliberately embarrassing her?
At this time, Guan Qing also added fuel to the fire, and said to Jing Xing: "Why doesn't the prince thank you?" Could it be that he is not satisfied with the decision made by the emperor? ”
Jing Xing's gritted teeth Wei Rui heard it clearly, for fear that he would do something irreparable, but he didn't expect that after he seemed to struggle for a long time, he still knelt down and thanked him.
Seeing that he had finally compromised, the emperor nodded with satisfaction, and then left.
Coming out of the palace, Jing Xing's mood has not been high, Wei Rui did not dare to talk easily, the two of them walked all the way, and when they were about to reach the annex, Jing Xing suddenly asked, "Are you sure?" ”
"Huh?" Wei Rui couldn't react.
Jingxing sighed: "What do you think are the chances that Guan Qing will be able to agree to my marriage?" ”
Wei Rui never expected Jing Xing to ask this, she was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It depends on who you follow, if you follow me, there are seventy percent." ”
Jing Xing looked at Wei Rui, the cold wind blew his hair, covering most of his face, but Wei Rui could still see his bright eyes and hear him ask, "What if it's someone else?" ”
Wei Rui didn't know why, her mood suddenly dropped, she pondered for a while, and then asked, "Why someone else?" ”
Jing Xing looked at her, his mouth moved, and he still didn't open his mouth after all.
Because Jingxing was going to stay in the capital for a while, the people who lived in the annex with him all moved to Jingxing's palace.
To tell the truth, Guan Qing's house is simple and simple, while Jingxing's house is simple and dilapidated, probably because there has been no one for a long time, so there are few subordinates, and no one has cleaned up.
Wei Rui followed Jingxing into his palace and began to prepare for his shop.
I thought that if I spent these three months in peace, everything would develop in a good direction, after all, Jing Xing, who was strongly opposed to opening a store here at the beginning, seemed to compromise slightly in the end.
However, there is one thing that everyone overlooks, that is, March after the beginning of spring, which is the day of friendly exchanges between the two countries.
Everyone was carried away by the joy of the New Year, forgetting the reef hidden in the shadows, and forgetting that there were still many things waiting for them.
When Emperor Qing mentioned this matter to Jingxing and asked him to make preparations, Jingxing remembered it, and when he returned to the palace, he immediately asked Chonghua and Wei Rui what to do.
Wei Rui didn't quite understand why he was so flustered, after all, if Wu Guo wanted to come, he could just pick up Chonghua, and Chonghua wanted to go home.
However, she didn't know that the reason why Jing Xing did not expose Chonghua's identity in the capital was because Emperor Qing had long coveted the beauty of the witch of the witch country for a long time.
In addition, in the witch country, witches who lose their virginity will be killed by the royal family to worship the gods.
That's why Chonghua wanted to go back so much, but he never said he wanted to go back.
