Chapter 374: Orange Orchid
Ling Shengyi looked at Zhu Xiao'e: "You know my eldest brother?" ”
Zhu Xiao'e giggled and looked at Ling Shengyi narrowly:
"Grand Prince Ling is handsome and chic, although he is in poor health, he is also a normal man. I, Zhu Xiao'e, am confident and a beauty. Grand Prince Ling admired me, came to me several times, and even wanted to take me as a concubine. What's so strange about that?
I not only know the eldest prince of Ling, but also the prince of Huofu, the prince of Zhangfu, and the prince of Wangfu. There are not many men like you Ling Shizi who don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. They did everything they could to please me. Not to mention, I'm quite excited. ”
"The last time Grand Prince Ling looked for you, he looked in a hurry, and he couldn't see any admiration for you at all. When your servant opened the door for him, he looked carefully to the right and left, lest he see someone. If that's the case, you don't have to act like a thief, right? Chu Yuqin said, "You're lying." ”
"Little girl, I am King Ning's outer chamber." Zhu Xiao'e sneered, "Cheating is still so blatant, isn't that looking for death?" Men, they're all the same kind of goods. A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, and stealing is better than stealing. That's why I don't want to be their concubine. ”
"But if you don't believe it, you won't believe it, what's the matter with me? I'm in your hands anyway. I'm just King Ning's plaything. If I can help him earn money, he will naturally love me more. Not only can I not make any money now, but I am also in such a big trouble. He has long been his outcast. ”
Chu Yuqin didn't know how much Ling Shengyi and Zhu Han believed, anyway, she didn't believe a word.
Zhu Xiao'e is very smart.
She knew that it would not do her any good to bite King Ning at this time.
If you take all the charges and keep King Ning, maybe you can still leave a life.
"Brother Zhu, Brother Ling, if it is not King Ning behind Orange Lan, then there are other people who are setting up this game. I'm afraid that King Ning is also a pawn in that person's chessboard. Chu Yuqin said, "This kind of court thing is not something I can understand. I came here to see Zhu Xiao'e just to know the progress of this case. Now that I know, I left with Second Brother Zhu first. ”
"The case is almost over. You girls from the Thousand Faces Pavilion will also be put back. Zhu Han said, "Let's come to Chu's house to celebrate in the evening." You go back and get ready. ”
"Okay." Chu Yuqin tugged at Zhu Qian's arm. "Let's go."
Out of the Criminal Department, Zhu Qian said: "Orange Lan ran away, that woman won't cause any trouble, right?" Why do you feel that you are always uneasy when you don't catch her? ”
"She's too cunning." Chu Yuqin got into the carriage, "It's terrible to have a woman who hates because of love." Speaking of which, Brother Zhu never responded to her feelings. She's so extreme. ”
"That's why I don't like this kind of woman." Zhu Qian said: "Just now you said that there are people behind Orange Orchid, who do you think?" ”
"I don't know about the power division in the capital, how do I know who is behind her? Even your brother didn't catch her. It can be seen that this woman is not what it used to be, and she is no longer the orange orchid she used to be. ”
Not long after Chu Yuqin and Zhu Qian returned to the Chu Mansion, the girls of the Thousand Faces Pavilion were released back by the officials.
At the same time, the unjust case of the Thousand Faces Pavilion was also brought to the fore.
Meirenzhai was sealed, and it was Meirenzhai who really used Meirenzhai, and the people soon knew the truth.
The people who used to scold the Thousand Faces Pavilion non-stop are now honest and obedient.
Night.
The Chu Mansion was full of laughter.
Zhu Han and Ling Shengyi, as the most popular benefactors in Chu Mansion, naturally received warm hospitality from everyone.
"The last dish is here." Chu Yuqin walked in with the dishes. "I prepared this dish for three hours. You'll have to taste it. I can't say it's not delicious! ”
Everyone saw Chu Yuqin enter the door with a pot, and hurriedly took the dish from her.
When the lid of the pot is opened, the aroma is overflowing, and they are all hungry.
"Okay, so many dishes, you can sit down and eat too." Xiao Yu pointed to the empty seat.
Chu Yuqin looked at that position, and was actually between Zhu Han and Ling Shengyi.
She looked at Xiao Yu.
The latter looked at her narrowly.
"Go sit down!"
Chu Yuqin rolled his eyes and sat down generously.
Sit down, what's there to be afraid of?
They were able to eat her.
"Brother Zhu, Brother Ling, this case was originally a big trouble. I am also ready to fight the other side for a long time. I didn't expect you to help me carry it down. I don't even have a place to do it yet. Don't say anything, I'll give you a drink. ”
"Yuqin, since we arrived in the capital, they have helped us deal with so many troubles." Chu Dashan said: "You have to thank the two sons. ”
"Uncle, don't say that." Zhu Han said: "I have always been the Zhu Han you know. The Chu family's affairs are my affairs. No matter what time it is, that will never change. ”
"I prefer the days when I lived in the countryside with you to the capital city. To tell the truth, Yuqin will appear in the capital, and I will also bear half of the responsibility. If only you didn't blame me. Ling Shengyi looked at Chu Yuqin.
"But I don't regret my decision at all. Lihong is a good seedling for literature. If you keep him in the countryside, you won't be able to meet a good teacher after all. There are many literati in the capital, and some people learn from him. That day, I met Lihong's master and heard him mention that you were about to get out of the exam. It seems that you have also received the approval of the Master. ”
"My little bit of three-legged cat work, Master, is comforting me! It's true, but I didn't think I'd get any good rankings, I just wanted to try. Chu Lihong said: "Brother Ling, you have a lot of books there, I'll borrow a few books from you another day!" Seeing that the day of the autumn exam was approaching, I was getting more and more nervous. ”
"Ling Shizi has a lot of books there, and our Zhu family also has a lot. Compared to Ling Shizi, our Zhu family is like your other home, so it is better to come to our house to read a book! Right? Elder brother. ”
Zhu Qian touched Zhu Han's foot.
Zhu Han raised his eyelids: "Most of our books are medical books, even if there are four books and five classics, they are not unusual books." In contrast, there are more books in Ling Shizi's place. Lihong was right. If he could read the books in Ling Shizi's mansion, it would be beneficial to him. ”
Zhu Qian lowered his voice and said, "Don't be modest at this time, right?" ”
"What's there to hesitate about? As long as it's a book, it's useful for the younger brother. We have to borrow Brother Ling's books, and Brother Zhu's books also have to borrow. Don't try to escape this. Chu Yuqin poured wine for Zhu Han and Ling Shengyi, "But with such a good atmosphere, what kind of books are you talking about?" Savor the food I cooked. You know, I've been preparing this dish for three hours! ”
Zhu Han smiled: "Yes." The Thousand Faces Pavilion will definitely be busy next. I don't know when I want to taste your craft. We should cherish it today. ”
