Chapter 778: Taking the Initiative (44)
"What's the hard work, I don't have anything to do now-this pool was dug by Brother Ling Huang after he took over? It's pretty good. It's nice to swim here in the hot summer or something. ”
Qu Xiaobai said: "Well, he knew that I was afraid of heat, so he specially dug this pool and brought me over to escape the heat." Unfortunately, I was injured the next day and couldn't get into the water. ”
The expression of the third prince really couldn't be managed well, "Oh, I see. "Co-author, this palace has become his own? How do you want to do it? Just casually get a swimming pool for your own woman? When he was in charge, if he wanted to invite those friends to play, he had to tell the palace a prophet, okay?
Oh, the countryman, it's really bold.
"It's cool outside, why don't you just sit in the pavilion for a while, what do the three emperor brothers think?" Qu Xiaobai asked for his opinion.
"It's fine."
Qu Xiaobai ordered people to prepare a herbal tea fruit plate, put it in the pavilion, the two went to the pavilion to sit, not far from another pavilion, there is Yang Ling looking for Le Ji playing a slow piano song, the sound of the song faintly came, it seems to be there or not, it is refreshing.
Herbal tea is the recipe given by Qu Xiaobai, Yang Ling added a few Chinese medicinal materials that nourish qi and nourish blood in it, and the fruit bowl is also a rare fruit transported from the south, the third prince had to sigh in his heart, this wild prince from the countryside will really enjoy life.
"How about the third prince taste this tea."
"The color is deep red, and it is beautiful." The third prince took a sip of tea, and the cool and slightly sweet taste made his eyes light up immediately, "What kind of tea is this?" The taste is weird, but it makes people feel very refreshing. ”
"A kind of herbal tea in our Di Yi, it is very effective in relieving the heat in summer, and the third emperor brother thinks it is delicious?"
"Very good."
"I want to open an herbal tea shop in Beijing, what do the third emperor brothers think?"
"I'm not very good at business, and the imperial sister-in-law asked me in vain, but this tea is really good. It's a pity that it also sells well in the summer, right? Isn't it going to be closed in the winter? ”
"There is both herbal tea and hot drinks, and we can sell our Diyi's milk tea in winter, which is fragrant and sweet, especially delicious."
"And that kind of thing?"
"Naturally, there is, when I have time one day, I will make it for the third emperor brother to taste, and the third emperor brother will know whether it is good or not."
The third prince smiled on his face: "That dare is good, it is also a blessing for Sansheng to be able to taste Di Yi's specialties." ”
"The third emperor brother is really good at laughing, what is the big deal about inviting you to have a cup of tea? However, since the third emperor brother has drunk tea, then I have to ask you to help me with a small matter. ”
The third prince had a bad intuition, but he couldn't refuse immediately, so he had to say: "Sister-in-law, tell me, it's my duty to do what I can." ”
"Look at you're nervous. It's not a big deal. I don't want to open an herbal tea shop, but I really don't know this capital, the third emperor brother grew up in Beijing, I thought, if you can help me keep an eye on what good shops, it would be great. ”
Qu Xiaobai said with a smile.
The third prince said: "The imperial sister-in-law really wants to open a shop?" I thought the imperial sister-in-law was joking. How could Emperor Ling be willing to let you come out to work? ”
"It's just a shop, what's the trouble? Yang Ling's eldest lady is said to be an expert in business, and I am quite envious, so I thought about trying to do it, if I could add some household use, wouldn't it be a good thing? ”
The third prince immediately understood in his heart that he had not seen it yet, and he began to fight. Women, women, in the end, all have such a common problem, always hope that in their man's heart is the heaviest, always hope that they are stronger and more favored than other wives and concubines.
It seems that no matter how capable Yang Ling is, he still has to face the infighting in this house. What else do you say about the two equal wives, jokes, I thought it was true.
The third prince saw ridicule in his heart at that time, but his face was full of smiles, and he agreed: "This is simple, what kind of shop does the imperial sister-in-law need, just tell me, I will pay attention to it when I go back." ”
"That's a good dare, so I'll thank the third emperor brother first."
Qu Xiaobai smiled while continuing to talk with the three princes, and talked about the noble relatives and royal families on the ground of the capital from the shop. When Qu Xiaobai first came, in the few books that Dudu brought her, there was a map of Da Liang's business routes, as well as a map of Da Liang's social relations, in fact, her understanding of Beijing was far beyond the imagination of others, but she didn't know about the recent changes in Kyoto, and she had to be taught by the three princes.
Yang Ling came back very late.
Qu Xiaobai entertained the three princes for dinner, and when she heard Ah Wu quietly come to report, Yang Ling came back, she sent the three princes and set up a table of food again.
expected that Yang Ling would rush back to eat with her for dinner, and when she entertained the third prince, she did not serve it in the name of avoiding suspicion, thinking about waiting for Yang Ling to come back and have dinner together.
Yang Ling entered the house after washing up in the bathroom, saw a table full of food, two pairs of dishes and chopsticks, pulled her in front of her, and said, "You don't have to wait for me in the future, eat first when you are hungry, you know?" ”
Qu Xiaobai smiled: "I'm not hungry. Don't you know me yet? The amount of food has always been small. ”
Yang Ling didn't bother to talk to her, but he felt warm in his heart for a while, and felt dull pain for a while. "I'll be back early tomorrow. Today I went to the Inner Mansion to participate in the interrogation of Si Daofeng, and I discovered a secret, which was very shocking, so I delayed it. ”
Yang Ling pulled Qu Xiaobai to the table and sat down, served her a small bowl of soup, and put two chopsticks into the empty bowl of her favorite dishes, "Eat some to cushion your stomach, I'm hungry." ”
Qu Xiaobai also gave him a few chopsticks and dishes, "Secret? What's the secret? ”
Yang Ling hooked his hand at Qu Xiaobai, Qu Xiaobai moved his head closer in confusion, and he said in her ear: "Si Daofeng is not a woman. ”
"Huh? Is that...... Father-in-law? Hermaphrodite? ”
Yang Ling flicked on her head with a smile, but still lowered his voice: "He is a man." ”
"Hold the grass, he won't be the face of Lu Xiaoxiao by his side, right? It's a little better-looking, but it's a little older. ”
Yang Ling: "......" flicked on her little head again, "You, can't you have a normal human mind?" Think about it, are his faces a little similar to Lu Xiaoxiao's? ”
"There's a bit of a resemblance when you say that...... I...... I'll go, is it true that Si Daofeng is Lu Xiaoxiao's father? Oh my God, this and this, the sky in the palace is green. ”
Yang Ling sighed lightly and said, "This matter can't be known to others for the time being." I didn't want to get involved in his case, but now I can't do it if I don't, and I can't let anyone else take over. Today I had to move him out of the inner mansion, and I was not at ease when others escorted me, so I had to escort him in person, and it was too late to come back. ”
Qu Xiaobai's shock in his heart went without saying, and he swallowed a mouthful of soup in his mouth for a long time, "No wonder, I always feel that there is something wrong with him, but I can't say what is wrong, now that I think about it, I have solved my doubts, there is naturally no problem with his appearance, but he always wraps himself tightly, and his neck is not exposed, it turns out that there is a reason why he is not exposed, he is afraid of revealing his Adam's apple, right?" ”
Yang Ling nodded: "Hmm." You said at the time that I thought something was wrong with him, and I was careful, but he disguised himself so well that even I lied to him. ”
Qu Xiaobai didn't know what to say for a while. drank half a bowl of soup in silence, took a deep breath, and said: "If he is a man, this matter is really scary, does that mean that Concubine Rong and him have been fornicating under the emperor's nose all these years?" Then he and Lu Xiaoxiao's disobedience, does the Rong family know or not? What does the Rong family mean? ”
The little girl actually thought that Lu Xiaoxiao's matter was related to the Rong family. This is absolutely impossible, Rong Liang's heart is deeply rooted in the dignity and inferiority of men and women, and he will never allow such a thing to happen to Si Chen.
Moreover, if he has a little relationship with the Rong family, Si Daofeng will not be desperate to come and beg him to let Lu Xiaoxiao go.
It's just that he didn't tell Qu Xiaobai the truth. It's good that she can think so, the more jealous she is of the Rong family, the more careful she is, which is not without her safety.
"It's not bothering you to tell you, you just need to have a number in your heart and be on guard. As for how to deal with these things, I have them. ”
"Oh." Qu Xiaobai lowered his head and ate the vegetables.
"I want to remind you of one more thing, Si Daofeng and Wei Gao know each other. I saw both of them at Guo Ziheng's house. ”
Qu Xiaobai was shocked again.
What kind of complicated relationship is this? Why is Wei Gao even involved? She looked at Yang Ling with a confused expression.
Yang Ling said: "Lu Wu and Wei Gao may come to you again, and you also need to know when the time comes." ”
Qu Xiaobai nodded with a heavy face, and spit out a few words with great difficulty: "I know." After a while, afraid that Yang Ling would be worried, he said: "I have to digest and digest, and it will be fine when the digestion is finished." ”
Yang Ling is not worried that she can't digest it, she has always been the strongest in adaptability, when she fell into this world, she had no food or food, and she couldn't fight. Dump her, this little thing will naturally not scare her. She really just needs a little time to digest it.
It's him, there are too many things he needs to do next, and he can't stay by her side all the time. Lack of surgical points. The body gave him a headache.
Therefore, he could only tell Qu Xiaobai the whole picture of the matter as much as possible and let her be vigilant. She is not like other noble girls, raised in a greenhouse and ignores the sufferings of the world, she has experienced a lot, she is very smart, she has learned through the past and the present, and there is no problem with her ability to protect herself.
"By the way, has Lu Xiaoxiao woken up? I heard Lu Gon say that she had been taken into the palace, and she also claimed that she was angry with Si Daofeng, I was thinking, should I go into the palace to see her? ”
After a while, Qu Xiaobai discussed Yang Ling.
Yang Ling raised his eyebrows and glanced at her. Where did she want to see Lu Xiaoxiao? She clearly wanted to find out what was going on. "Let's talk about the injury on the shoulder, what is her identity, it is worth you to see her?"
