Chapter 742: Preparing for the Banquet
Murong Hui sent all the palace people out, so she asked Mama Huang and Qingyue to go out and guard the door, so that no one would stand at the door and eavesdrop.
Only then did Murong Hui tell the two of them all about the situation on the day of the lake swim.
As soon as she finished speaking, Murong Anteng stood up and walked around the main hall a few times, before she approached Murong Hui with a cold face and asked, "Where did you hear this?" ”
"But Princess Huaqing came to see you temporarily, and she was not on the list of lake tours beforehand."
Murong Ning lowered his head and thought calmly for a moment, and then said blankly.
"On the day my aunt informed me to go to the palace, I ordered someone to send a letter to the palace, informed Sister Ning, and sent someone to pick her up after the palace was poured."
Murong Hui said lightly, then looked at the two of them and continued: "Your plan to visit the lake is not a whim, and the people who were originally going to come were also set early. ”
"It seems like a coincidence, but in fact they have a day to prepare."
Syllable......
Murong Ning slapped the table and felt a deep feeling of being fooled.
These people are clearly deliberately using them to make them part of their plans.
They are not responsible for the success or failure of this matter, but as the initiator of the game, he, his eldest brother, and Murong Hui have to bear the blame.
"It's a brilliant plan, don't let me find out who is plotting against me, or I'll make him walk around without food."
Murong An almost went violently, and originally wanted to make a good start in his life in the palace by swimming in the lake.
Now that his good mood has been lost, he still feels a little awkward when he thinks about it.
"Let's eat a trench and grow wise, we cousins and sisters don't have a fuel-efficient lamp."
Murong Hui shook her head helplessly, seeing that the two of them had calmed down, and seeing that it was not too early, she got up and said goodbye.
"I shouldn't have told them about it."
After waiting for the two of them to live, Murong Hui couldn't help but regret it a little.
Looking at the gloomy faces of the two of them, they may do something because they can't swallow this breath.
"Even if you don't say it, the two princes will know sooner or later, so it's better for you to tell them and let them be wary of those royal relatives."
Mama Huang sighed, after all, she felt that Murong Hui and the two princes were one family.
And those clan relatives outside don't have the same heart with them after all.
This time, in order to promote the marriage of a clan, they deliberately used the two princes, and the names were naturally okay.
Murong Hui nodded, and didn't say anything.
After he left, the lights in Murong An and Murong Ning's rooms were not extinguished for a long time.
It wasn't until the second watch that they opened the door, called in a few cronies, gave a few words, and then turned off the lights and went to rest.
Early the next morning, when she went to ask for peace, Murong Hui saw that Murong An and Murong Ning were staring at the dark circles under their eyes, and it was obvious that neither of them had rested well.
"Hui'er, you can take this jade pendant back to Princess Huaqing. Old Concubine Ling forgot to give her a meeting gift yesterday, and she was sent over early this morning. ”
Lin Yingxue pushed the box in front of Murong Hui and said lightly.
Murong Hui lowered her head and looked at the jade pendant, and couldn't help frowning.
If the color of this jade pendant is acceptable among the people, it can be worth thirty or fifty taels.
If it is placed in the palace, I am afraid that a slightly decent grandmother can afford to use such a thing.
"Why is this old lady Ling like this? Princess Huaqing is Princess Lan Guoyan, and she is too lazy. ”
Without waiting for Murong Hui to speak, Murong Ning couldn't help but say.
"Hui'er, you can choose not to give it to her, it's the same whether you give it or not."
Lin Yingxue's face was calm, she didn't recognize this concubine for the first day, so she naturally knew her style.
"Let's give it to her, lest Old Concubine Ling mention this matter in the future, and Sister Ning can't answer again, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
Let the box be taken away, Murong Hui didn't want to see the jade pendant for a moment.
"Whatever you want, since you're here today, you'll have breakfast with me."
Lin Yingxue got up and walked towards the restaurant as she spoke, and Murong Hui and the two princes got up and went over with them.
The two chatted for a few words, and only left the Peony Pavilion after the hour.
"Sister Hui knows anything about Murong Liang?"
As soon as the three of them walked out of the Peony Pavilion, Murong Ning took the lead in speaking.
Murong Hui thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "His father is a Beizi, I'm afraid he doesn't have a title here, just an ordinary clan." ”
Murong Hui knew these things early on, and it was because of this that Murong Liang wanted to marry Princess Huaqing.
Although Princess Huaqing is a foreigner, Lan Guo and Rong Guo are allied, and Rong Guo will naturally give Princess Hua Qing some preferential treatment to show his sincerity to Rong Guo.
As long as he marries Sang Ning, he can at least get a knighthood, so that the temptation is enough for him to take risks.
"Isn't it strange that he is just an ordinary clan, and he can work with a group of county princes and county lords to help him lay out?"
Seeing Murong Hui's thoughtful expression, Murong An suddenly lost his patience and said quickly.
"Maybe it's because they have a private relationship, but they're all cousins in the end."
Although Murong Hui also thought of this, she couldn't think of a reason, so she said casually.
"What did you find?"
After saying that, she reacted and asked the two.
"Come to us and say that this matter must not be left as it is!"
Murong An's qi was originally small, but he was cheated this time, so he naturally couldn't swallow this breath.
Murong Hui nodded, and then went to Qingliangzhai with him.
As soon as the three of them sat down, someone brought the ice bowl up, and Murong An took an ice bowl and shouted at the palace people, "All go out." ”
Those palace people naturally knew that the eldest prince had a bad temper, so they hurriedly saluted, so they left in a hurry.
After there were only three people left in the room, Murong Ning lowered his voice and said, "Yesterday, we asked people to check the boat, and sure enough, they did it. ”
According to Murong Ning, it was the county lord Wanhui who was doing the tricks on the boat, and most people decided to help because of her face.
They have never found out what the relationship between Lord Wanhui and Murong Liang is.
"What are your plans?"
Murong Hui couldn't help but admire these two cousins for being able to find out so many clues in such a short period of time.
It took Mama Huang ten days to find out so much.
"Naturally, find out what ulterior secrets there are between them, and then poke this secret out, so that Wanhui will suffer a little! As for that Murong Liang, he is just a little shrimp, and he will have a chance to deal with him in the future! ”
Murong An scratched his head, and his face turned red again.
"Big brother, if you have something to say, we are planning to let Sister Hui hold a banquet, invite Wanhui over, and take the opportunity to check the clues."
Murong Ning sighed and said helplessly.
In the end, there is a difference between men and women, and it is not good for them to inquire too much about the private affairs of the cousin in the next room, and Murong Hui's inquiry seems to be more justified.
Since Wan Hui is willing to take such a big risk for Murong Liang, this secret must be very important to her, and she will definitely keep this secret. Let's take a two-pronged approach, you start with Murong Liang, and I'll deal with Wanhui. ”
Murong Hui thought for a moment, then said lightly.
"It's okay, let's have a banquet together."
Murong An gritted his teeth and said coldly.
"Murong Liang is not a martial artist, and he claims to be a relative of the emperor, I think there will be a group of fox friends and dog friends around him, if you can't pry his mouth open, try the people around him."
Murong Hui saw that they had already made a plan, so he added seriously.
"Sister Hui, we are not good at arranging banquets, and we bother you to help."
After hearing this, Murong Ning smiled, and there was a bit of coldness in his eyes.
He has a gentle temperament, but he will not be bullied, and what they did this time really touched his bottom line.
Murong Hui nodded, and then responded to the matter.
Several people discussed the details, and Murong Hui breathed a sigh of relief and left Qingliangzhai.
For the next few days, the palace seemed to fall into an eerie silence.
Even Lin Yingxue felt that the atmosphere was not quite right, but before she could ask, she brought the three of them over together, as if they had been discussed.
"It's rare for you to come together, what is the matter today?"
Putting down the wine glass, Murong Jun smiled.
The two princes glanced at each other, and Murong An stepped forward: "We have been in the palace for some days, and we feel that the few people in this palace are really not lively enough, so we want to hold a banquet to make it lively." ”
Murong Jun raised his eyebrows, but he didn't object, and said with a smile: "The date is set?" ”
"How's the day after tomorrow?"
Murong Ning smiled, put his hands on Murong Jun's legs, and said softly.
"It's okay, let's do it in the Willow Palace, it's a big place over there."
Lin Yingxue walked over at this time and said with a smile.
Murong Ning and Murong An nodded, and hurriedly said in unison: "Thank you, mother, Sister Hui has agreed to help us set up the banquet, you just have to rest assured." ”
Lin Yingxue glanced at Murong Hui and said with a smile: "If there is anything you need help with, just talk to Mama and ask her to help arrange it." ”
"Hui'er knows."
Seeing that both of them agreed, Murong Hui breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly responded.
When the three of them got what they wanted, they left happily to arrange the banquet, completely ignoring the meaningful expressions of Lin Yingxue and Murong Jun.
"I'm afraid these three kids know about it, but since they've decided to solve it themselves, let's see how they solve it."
Peeling an orange with her own hands and handing it to Murong Jun, Lin Yingxue couldn't help but smile.
"It's better to look at it, they are still laughing, don't cause anything."
After taking the orange and feeding it to Lin Yingxue first, Murong Jun smiled.
He didn't care about the fight between these children, but when it came to many relatives of the royal family, he had to be careful so as not to deal with trouble.
"Didn't I already ask Mama to help? Hui'er is a measured child, and she will definitely restrain them. ”
Lin Yingxue wasn't worried about this at all, there were no mountains or rivers around the Willow Palace, only countless fine willows fluttering in the wind, and there was no accident at all.
"I didn't expect things to go so smoothly."
Walking out of the Peony Pavilion, Murong Ning said with a look of disbelief.
