Chapter 142: Weakness
What she did yesterday was fruitful, and even Lin Yingxue couldn't help but want to laugh when she thought of Yin Ze's pig-liver-like face.
"Yingxue Yingxue, where are we going today, what should we do?" The person in front of him asked with great interest, if he couldn't still see the trace of sadness that flashed in the eyes of the person in front of him from time to time, Lin Yingxue would really think that the previous Murong Yue was back.
"I'll take you to play more fun today......" Lin Yingxue hooked the corners of her mouth, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.
As the prince of Xiangguo, Yin Ze has not played games such as crickets, dice, and pai gow with people in private, but he never thought that one day he would come to a small gambling house with a princess to gamble money.
Although he knew that these were all intentional actions by Murong Yue, but looking at the two beautiful women who looked like they were in the middle of a group of big men, talking foul words and playing dice, Yin Ze felt that this situation was a bit disobedient.
"Mrs. Yin...... Childe, the little girl didn't bring enough money when she went out today, why don't you borrow some from me? "Murong Yue has never been to such a place, and she has never gambled money, where can she win money? She had only stood here for half an hour, and I am afraid that she would lose not a thousand taels of silver, but five hundred taels.
Originally, she planned to continue to take out her own money, but Lin Yingxue secretly reminded her, signaling that there was a big wrongdoer on her side, so why should she spend it herself?
Murong Yue suddenly understood, so she turned her head and stretched out her claws to Yin Ze on the side.
Looking at Murong Yue's smiling eyes, Yin Ze's scalp was a little numb, but he had to save face and take out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and hand it to Murong Yue.
In the next time, Yin Ze watched Murong Yue lose the stack of silver tickets he gave one by one, although he was not short of money as a prince, but this kind of foolish behavior of clearly giving money to people still made the corners of Yin Ze's mouth twitch when he looked at it.
In the end, Xu Jingsheng, who came with him today, said: "It's almost time to eat, look at the four ...... Miss's luck doesn't seem to be very good today, why don't we go to dinner first, and then find a chance to come over another day, I don't know what Miss Fourth thinks? ”
As soon as Xu Jingsheng's words came out, Murong Yue couldn't help but turn her head and glance at Lin Yingxue on the side - after all, she grew up in the royal family since she was a child, and she had never been to such a smoky place, and it was already embarrassing for her to stay here for so long today, and it would be better if she could leave early.
Lin Yingxue received Murong Yue's eyes, so she nodded imperceptibly, signaling that Murong Yue and they could already leave, after all, the purpose of their coming here had been achieved, and there was no point in staying here any longer.
So, Lin Yingxue and her party left the gambling house.
"The relationship between the fifth lady and the fourth princess seems to be very good." Xu Jingsheng is here specifically for Lin Yingxue today, and the small actions between Lin Yingxue and Murong Yue naturally did not escape his eyes. He deliberately took two steps behind, walked side by side with Lin Yingxue, and easily found the topic and chatted with Lin Yingxue.
"Hmm." Although the person next to him looks ordinary, this person always gives Lin Yingxue a hidden feeling, so Lin Yingxue's response attitude is not very enthusiastic.
Xu Jingsheng didn't mind seeing this, and after the two chatted for a few more words, he saw Yin Ze and Murong Yue in front of him suddenly stop, "Fourth princess, the people below told me that the food in this restaurant in Guang'an City is good, why don't we eat here today." ”
It seems that Yin Ze was really scared yesterday, for fear that Murong Yue would disgust him with a place to eat again, so he hurriedly took the initiative to pick a good position today.
Anyway, their plans for today have changed, and they eat the same everywhere, "Okay." Murong Yue responded without the slightest hesitation.
Looking at the bright smile on Murong Yue's face, Yin Ze's scalp began to tingle a little again.
This is a large restaurant with antique decoration, the four of them asked for a private room to sit down, after serving the food, Yin Ze stared at Murong Yue with fear, and after seeing that Murong Yue had finally returned to his former appearance, he was relieved.
But this kind of relaxation didn't last long, because the person opposite put down his chopsticks after eating two bites and said: "I went out to play with Prince Yin today, Yue'er is very happy, come, let's drink!" ”
A glass of wine was no big deal, Yin Ze picked up the wine glass on the table without the slightest hesitation and clinked glasses with Murong Yue.
"Come on, let's drink again!" Yin Ze's wine glass had just been put down, and he heard Murong Yue continue.
Yin Ze had no choice but to pick up his wine glass again...... After a few glasses in a row, a pot of wine quickly bottomed out. Although Yin Ze believes that he has a good amount of alcohol, he can drink it in this way, even a person who drinks well can't last long!
Just as Yin Ze wanted to open his mouth to dissuade him, Murong Yue suddenly stood up, "Little Er, serve the wine!" ”
"Isn't the princess drinking too much?" Seeing that Murong Yue's face was flushed, and his eyes began to gradually drift a little, Yin Ze couldn't help but stand up and said with concern.
"I didn't!" Murong Yue unceremoniously pushed Yin Ze, who wanted to reach out to help her, and staggered open the door and walked out, "Little Er, serve the wine!" As soon as they came out of the room, Lin Yingxue stood on the porch and shouted loudly.
The place where Murong Yue and the others were located was on the second floor, and at this time, there were many guests eating on the first floor, and when Murong Yue went down, almost everyone in the lobby looked at Murong Yue.
"Little Er, bring the wine quickly!" Murong Yue still shouted without any image as if she hadn't noticed the gazes of those people below.
"Princess, you've drunk too much." Lin Yingxue and the others also quickly followed behind Murong Yue and walked out.
Yin Ze stepped forward to help Murong Yue, but was preempted by Lin Yingxue, "They should see through our plan, so let's stop here." Lin Yingxue frowned and whispered in Murong Yue's ear.
- Xu Jingsheng kept looking at her with a smile when she was in the wing room just now, and although Yin Ze was very anxious with a look, Lin Yingxue didn't see the obvious disgust on his face like yesterday.
All this can only show that the two people in front of them have already seen through their schemes, and they are just acting with them at this time.
After Murong Yue listened to Lin Yingxue's words, she suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart, and she quickly pretended to be drunk and let Lin Yingxue help her out of the door of the restaurant.
"They've seen it so quickly, so what do we do next?" After getting into the carriage, Murong Yue instantly regained her clarity.
Lin Yingxue sighed, "I haven't thought of a better way for the time being, don't meet with the people of Xiang for the next few days, and wait until I think of a better way." ”
The night is getting darker.
The candle flame on the table was swaying and jumping, Lin Yingxue looked at the candlelight and was stunned, Di'er couldn't help but shudder when she walked in, "Why is it so cold in this room......" Di'er muttered while walking to the window and closing the window.
Lin Yingxue listened to the chatter in her ears, the footsteps that gradually moved away and the sound of the door closing, but her expression did not change at all.
Until the candle flame on the table suddenly jumped violently.
"Who?!" Lin Yingxue stood up almost immediately, she quickly turned her head to look in the direction of the window, only to see that the window that should have been closed by Di'er had been pushed open by someone at some point.
She walked to the window in three or two steps, pushed open the window with a cold face, and saw a black shadow flying towards the ridge with a deft posture, but before she could go far, Leng Yue, who had been guarding near Lin Yingxue's room, chased after her.
The man in black in the night suit didn't seem to want people to find out his identity, and he just wanted to leave, so the two were accidentally stabbed on the arm by Leng Yue during the fight, and the light skills of the man in black seemed to be very good.
The man in black who suddenly appeared last night made Leng Yue suddenly nervous, and he kept guard by Lin Yingxue's bed all night, until Lin Yingxue forcibly drove Leng Yue away in the morning, and Leng Yue went back to her room to rest.
"You're bold enough." As soon as Lin Yingxue finished breakfast, Mo Yunxuan came to have guests.
"I was also going to go over to find the Third Highness today, but I didn't expect the Third Highness to find it by himself, so I wouldn't have to run by myself." Without Lin Yingxue's greeting, Murong Jun found a place to sit down by himself.
"Isn't Fifth Miss resourceful and bold, is there anything else that needs to be discussed with me?" Listening to Murong Jun's tone, it was obvious that Lin Yingxue and Murong Yue's movements in the past two days must have reached the ears of the people in front of them.
Lin Yingxue raised her eyebrows, but did not deny it, but said: "Since the fourth princess doesn't want to marry the prince of the Xiang Kingdom, then I can't sit idly by." ”
As soon as Lin Yingxue's words came out, Murong Jun immediately fell silent, and he didn't come to accuse Lin Yingxue, so he didn't dwell on this issue, but calmly helped Lin Yingxue analyze: "Because of Yue'er's nonsense in the past two days, my father has already given Yue'er a grounding order, and Yue'er may not be able to leave the palace these days, and this little trick alone is obviously not enough to dispel the determination of the prince of Xiangguo to marry Yue'er." ”
"In addition, Xiang Guo and others said that they would only stay in the imperial city for half a month, and they thought that the holy decree of marriage would come down within half a month. If Miss Five really wants to help Yue'er, I think Miss Five may have to think of another way to dispel the idea of the Prince of Xiangguo sooner. ”
After Lin Yingxue frowned and listened to Murong Jun's words, she was about to say something, but she suddenly reacted and said, "Your Royal Highness came all the way here, you don't just want to say this useless nonsense to me, right?" ”
Originally, I wanted to hang Lin Yingxue's appetite, but I didn't expect Lin Yingxue to see through his thoughts so quickly.
A light smile appeared on Murong Jun's Qingjun face, "Maybe the fifth lady can find a way to let the prince of Xiangguo know that the relationship between the fourth sister and her father is not as good as before, and there is one more point, Yin Ze is actually ...... Also interested in men. ”
If Lin Yingxue was not mistaken, Murong Jun clenched his fists and said the last sentence, his face seemed to be ...... A flash of embarrassment?
"Interested in men?" Lin Yingxue asked rhetorically, and after seeing Murong Jun nodding at her and confirming what she was thinking, Lin Yingxue's face turned red.
"I have already told Fifth Miss about Yin Ze's weakness, and it is up to Fifth Miss herself how to use this weakness." Murong Jun smiled meaningfully.
Seeing that Murong Jun looked like he had nothing to do with himself and hung high, Lin Yingxue couldn't help but squeeze and said, "His Royal Highness Zhao means that he doesn't plan to get involved in this matter at all?" ”
"I believe in Miss Five's ability." An understatement almost didn't make Lin Yingxue vomit blood in anger.
