Chapter 531: Mang Chuxian 2
King Rong's mansion has become lively these days, and people continue to visit: the earliest visitor is the eighth princess Xijiao, who got the news from the emperor and was surprised, and immediately went out of the palace to visit the fourth brother and sister-in-law who had been sinned; After that, the prince brought a heavy gift to visit, thinking that the gangster was a soldier who came to disguise himself as a soldier in the city defense battalion, and came to the prince's mansion to take Murong Chongkuang away, and scolded him angrily for half an hour; Then there is the third princess Chunyi and the sixth princess Jiayi, Jiayi and Xijiao have a good relationship, and Chunyi is the queen's biological daughter, and Xijiao is the queen's adopted daughter, so naturally she can also get the news; After that, it was the colleague who learned that Murong Chong had taken sick leave for so long, and he was concerned about the cold and warmth; The last wave was Lin Qian and Li Yan who rushed with Lin Qi and Li Xien.
The news from outside is that a murderer sneaked into Beijing to commit murder and was strangled by Prince Rong and others. However, this group of poor and evil people are well-trained killers, and Prince Rong was injured in the battle and recuperated in the mansion.
Such a statement can not only explain the dozen or so exposed corpses on the noisy streets that day, but also explain the reason why Murong Chong was injured: Prince Rong, who has made great achievements in battle and has never been defeated, is an invincible master in the use of troops and battles, but he is an ordinary person, not an invulnerable god, and he will also be injured in the face of well-trained killers.
However, the rumor was gradually spread that Rong Wang Ye returned from this great victory, and the country was unwilling, and paid a lot of money to buy the killers of the rivers and lakes to assassinate Rong Wang Ye, in order to repay the national shame of land compensation, and the people in Beijing were filled with righteous indignation, and many young and strong men were conscripted into the army, which became an unexpected gain for the military department and the army.
Lin Qian only learned that Lin Ruo was also injured after arriving at the house, and he couldn't speak for the time being, but he had prepared in advance, and Lin Ruo was fine except that he couldn't make a sound, but it didn't make Lin Qian's mood fluctuate greatly, and it also made Lin Ruo and Li Yan feel at ease.
Only Li Xien didn't understand why Lin Ruo didn't talk to him, and kept pestering and asking. But after asking, he didn't understand, confusion and loss were staggered back and forth in his big black eyes, and finally made him understand that Aunt Lin was sick so he couldn't speak, he tilted his head and thought for a long time, and then said solemnly to Lin Ruo: "Auntie is obedient, take medicine obediently." โ
Thinking that Lin Ruo was the most reluctant to drink medicine since he was a child, Lin Qian, Li Yan, and Lin Qi couldn't help laughing.
Murong Chong has a very cold personality, rarely has deep friendships with people, and he doesn't like people in the house to visit, making him very unhappy. But this time was different, every time someone came to visit Lin Ruo, Lin Ruo would not reject his closeness, and even smile shallowly at himโeven if there was alienation in that smile that only he could feel.
Perhaps we should be grateful for the three chapters of the covenant on the wedding day, in front of people, they are an enviable couple, raising their eyebrows and respecting each other. The ladies envied Murong Chong, who had never been smiling, for being so gentle to Lin Ruo, and men who knew some inside stories admired the seemingly weak Lin Ruo for having such courage, and were willing to risk his life to save Murong Chong.
When the guests were gone, Lin Ruo would revert to his indifferent appearance, not responding to Murong Chong's concerns, and ignoring Murong Chong's explanations.
In this situation, Murong Chong's mind suddenly appeared that when he first got married, he took Lin Ruo into the palace to thank him, but he heard what Lin Ruo said who was embarrassed by Xijiao.
She said that respecting each other is not enviable, because the guest, the guest, treat the loved one with the attitude of treating the guest, self-denial, and decent, so that it will not be the way two people who love each other will get along.
She also said that compared with respecting each other like "ice" and respecting each other like "soldiers", respecting each other like guests is already good.
Now he really feels that Lin Ruo respects him like a guest in front of people, and respects him like "ice" in the back...... This kind of taste is really uncomfortable!
However, most of the current situation is his fault, and he is to blame, what can he do?
He also wanted to explain, but every time he mentioned the curved rhyme, Lin Ruo would cover his ears and not want to hear it at all.
In the end, it was Li Yan who solved his confusion: "The reason why the prince wants to explain to Ah Ruo is because Ah Ruo sacrificed his life to save you, but you still question the selfishness between her and Prince Zhan." Now the prince realizes that he has acted too much, so he wants to explain the past between you and Miss Wanyun, not because the prince is sincerely relieved, but because the prince feels guilty in his heart, he wants to say it, right? โ
Murong Chong was silent, because what Li Yan said was right, he didn't let go of his past with Wanyun, but he had realized that Lin Ruo was indispensable to him.
"Lord Wang, although Ah Ruo is kind and amiable to others, she has her principles, especially feelings. She refuses to listen to your guilt-based explanations because she values her relationship with you. If you have a promise made in your heart, after a long time, the guilt will fade, and you will have regret and resentment. At the same time, every time he saw the other party, this remorse and resentment would increase by one point, until he was overwhelmed and Lao Yan separated. โ
Li Yan's words made Murong Chong think about it secretly for a long time. This may be Lin Ruo's good intentions, but it also makes him feel that Lin Ruo inevitably underestimates him too much, and he sees himself too clearly.
Wait until you really let go, aren't you afraid that misunderstandings will arise in the process of waiting, so that this relationship will run to the end?
However, after being reminded by Li Yan, Murong Chong did no longer talk to Lin Ruo about the bending rhyme and the hibiscus hairpin. Even if Lin Ruo didn't pay attention to him anymore, he wouldn't cover his ears and not listen to him - probably because Murong Chong really didn't talk much, the so-called accompanying her was just watching her read, check accounts, copy scriptures, and draw, or watch her occasionally cook with interest and tinker with some small things.
After such a day, Lin Ruo's situation still did not improve, and he couldn't make any sound. The Lin Mansion sent Zhu Xuan from Jinling over to serve Lin Ruo, Murong Chong had no objection, but he was a little curious: except for Youcao, Lin Ruo was not used to being served by others closely, and after Qingqu was sold, there were no other maids in the palace to wait. It's just that if the Lin family is not at ease, just pick a reliable and clever person from the Lin Mansion, why did they transfer Zhuxuan from Jinling? Zhu Xuan is the maid of the sixth lady of the Jinling royal family, but she occasionally has the opportunity to serve Lin Ruo, how can she make Lin Ruo so worried?
But this question is just a lap in my mind.
After all, it is not easy to find a clever and careful little maidservant, and it is common for large families to send a few clever subordinates as favors! Although Zhu Xuan was in Jinling, Lin Ruo always followed Lin Qian to the Jinling Palace in previous years, and Zhu Xuan always helped Youcao to serve together, plus when he was in the north, Zhu Xuan left a very good impression on Murong Chong, and seeing that Lin Ruo was very happy and happy about Zhu Xuan's arrival, he would not object.
Murong Chong, who had rested for more than ten days, finally returned to the court, the sword wound on his shoulder had already scabbed, and the wound on his vest had also improved. If you stay in the palace any longer, I am afraid that people will worry about whether Prince Rong is too injured, so that rumors will spread and people's hearts will fluctuate.
