Chapter 46: Exile
I heard that she stopped it at the beginning, thinking that everyone has their own ambitions and there is no need to stop it, but he responded with his words, but behind his back, he intensified it.
Xu was afraid that Wei Lin would change her mind one day, but he had already lost his heart.
Lu Xu stood in front of the window, looking at the budding Qionghua outside, thinking in his heart that Wei Lin had underestimated him too much.
He knew from beginning to end that his feelings for Yuan Lingchen were by no means admiration.
So much so that when he heard the rumors of Murong Yu and her, he did have murderous intentions.
It was an emotion that wanted to destroy everything in an instant, although it was suppressed by him, but from time to time, it would always come out involuntarily.
Later, when the Murong family had an accident, he was indeed relieved.
It's just that such emotions, such selfish thoughts, he never dared to confide in front of her.
I'm afraid that once she notices, she will push him even more out of reach.
At this time, the maid outside the house was already ashamed and indignant by what Wei Lin said, and ran away with her face hidden, but Wei Lin, who had won a big victory, did not know how to restrain at all, and continued to sneer: "Steward Qin, you are too ignorant of the rules in Zhuangzi, the guest pointed out that she was not, taught her a few words, and even put her face, such an undisciplined slave and maid, if you keep it, which day will collide with the master of your mansion, you can't explain it, right?" ”
Qin Jizhong gritted his teeth secretly, but he had to say again and again on his face: "The slaves and maids in this Zhuangzi have never had much knowledge, if there is anything to offend the son, look at Haihan." ”
He didn't dare to clash with this menacing prince openly, and when he saw that the other party was aggressive, he had to bow his head and give in.
Wei Lin waved his hand, and was about to turn around and enter the door, when he saw another maid still standing in place in a daze, obviously frightened by what had just happened, and even shrank when she touched Wei Lin's gaze.
Only Wei Lin has been in the deep palace for a long time, but he will not spread sympathy to inconsequential people, and his exit is still ruthless: "If this Zhuangzi is full of slaves and maids who can't be on the stage, I don't think you need to transfer people over, after all, we are used to living in the mountains and wilderness, and we can't afford to stand the golden and noble maids in your mansion." ”
He shook his head with a sigh of relief, and said that the other was also pear blossom rain.
Then he didn't care about Steward Qin, who had a stiff face, and went straight to the door.
Seeing Lu Xu standing in front of the window, he said bluntly: "He arranged you here, but he didn't have a good heart, you came in like this, not afraid of causing gossip?" ”
Lu Xu didn't look back, and said with a light expression: "Since he dares to arrange, I naturally dare to live." ”
A family like the Lu family, whether it is an annex or a Zhuangzi in any place, the main courtyard inside will not be easily lived, it is reserved for the patriarch, even if the patriarch does not come for the rest of his life, this courtyard will always be kept.
This is a common practice in the clan, and although it is not explicitly recorded, it is a tacit rule that everyone knows.
Qin Jizhong brought him to this courtyard, naturally he didn't have a good heart, and arranged two beautiful maids for him, if he couldn't hold it and did something ridiculous, this reputation would not be a good name.
No one else cares where the slave and maid came from, but they only know that he took in his slave and maid in his father's yard.
At worst, this is absurd and uninhibited, and at worst, it is disrespectful and unfilial.
With such a reputation, it is no longer possible to marry a noble daughter from the family of the Minister.
Even if he gains the upper hand for a while, he will be stabilized by his younger brother who came out of the steproom in the future.
As everyone knows, he doesn't care how prominent the Yue family is in the future, and what he wants is only that one from beginning to end.
Seeing that he had a plan, Wei Lin didn't say anything more, and asked the question he was most concerned about: "When are you going to see her?" ”
Only this time Lu Xu didn't reply to him, Wei Lin raised his eyes and saw him looking at Qionghua outside the window in a daze.
Immediately, I also thought that there were also some Qionghua in the palace in my previous life.
And she often stops under the Qionghua tree.
Although he had never heard her say it explicitly, Wei Lin knew that it was what she liked in her heart.
For him, Qionghua has another meaning.
When he first entered the palace, he didn't know how to greet him, and he didn't know that he had offended people, and he was supposed to be put to death.
was bumped into by Aunt Lingchen and saved his life.
He will never forget the lush Qionghua tree, standing in a corner, not competing with the crowd, just like her distant back.
Since then, he has given her this life.
I am happy for her, and I am worried about her.
Even if he starts over again, his original intention has not changed.
……
Yuan Lingchen, who was five miles away, just lifted the lid of the steaming pot and put the cut noodles into the pot.
By this time it was getting dark.
In the courtyard, Yuan Baozhu carried a basket of mulberry leaves into the door, smelled the fragrance wafting from the kitchen, took a few deep breaths, and put the basket down.
But his feet went into the chamber very briskly.
And bring back a message.
"On my way back, I saw that the clansmen who escorted Wang Xiuli had returned."
This first aroused Chen's interest: "What did they say? ”
"I heard that it was Li Zheng who personally took him over, so he opened the court at that time and was sentenced to exile."
Yuan Lingchen was a little puzzled: "Didn't you say that the silver money was given by a nobleman?" Why did you go to court and not mention it? ”
Calculating the time, from noon to sunset, it is only enough for people to walk back and forth to the county seat, and if you want to open a court trial, it is not so fast.
When Yuan Baozhu heard this, he was even more energetic: "Don't you know, our county official is the official who bought it, if you want to sue the official, you have to stuff enough silver first, and everything is in order, before you can enter the yamen, if not, come in and give you a killing rod first, you can't find a chance to shout injustice, Wang Xiuli's mother's family has no money to give her a point, and the husband's family is a nest of snakes and rats, who cares if she lives or dies?" Sooner or later, she had to be beaten into a trick, and in order not to suffer from flesh and skin, she simply admitted everything. ”
Yuan Baozhu didn't know any of this, but he had just heard about it.
Chen listened to it and only said that he deserved it.
Yuan Lingchen seemed to have an understanding, thinking that Wang Xiuli was not stupid, and at first he just said that it was given by a nobleman.
When I went to court, I was afraid that I also realized that the indiscriminate climbing and biting would make the person unhappy, and it would lead to death.
Besides, Wang Xiuli herself should not know the details of that person, and she can't come up with definite evidence to prove that the money was given by that person, and the county official didn't have the patience to listen to her details, so he simply admitted the name of stealing.
In this way, not only saved his life, but also saved the pain of flesh and skin.
But now that there is war and chaos outside, if exile is really sentenced, it is difficult to say whether it is a blessing or a curse.
The only thing that made her feel a little disobedient was that Lizheng, it turned out that he didn't care about other trivial matters except for the old age, why did it come so coincidentally this time?
Just when Wang Xiuli mentioned the nobleman, Li Zheng appeared at the right time.
It's so unusual, but I don't know why?
She also suspected that Li Zheng was also being bribed, but at noon at Yuan Jinning's house, she also saw here Zheng, not only was she not hostile to her, but also smiled at her quite kindly, and she didn't seem to be fake when she saw that attitude.
But I only felt that there must be something strange in it.
