Chapter 432: Sending the Guests Away
Although there is also a path between these two places that can go directly to the past without such trouble, this kind of road is usually convenient for the servants of the family to pass on news and goods, so as Murong Yin, Murong Lin will definitely not take him to that shortcut.
After these people sat down in the front hall, Qiguan, who had been in charge of holding the gifts in the back, was already tired and panting, and Siben really looked pitiful, so he stretched out his hand and pointed to the small desk on the edge of the front hall, and asked him to put his things there for a while to rest.
Qiguan deliberately took a look at where Murong Yin was seated, and then followed him and put it on the desk closest to him, and then nodded very gratefully at Siben.
Siben waved his hand and said no, and ran to stand behind Murong Lin, and then Xiao Yun and Xiao Yu, who had just left, took the flower tea that had just been brewed, and came over one by one to serve it to the three masters in the front hall.
Murong Yin didn't pay attention to how harmonious the feelings and relationships between the people behind him were, he only picked up the cup and tasted it, and then put on the most gentle appearance and bowed his head at Murong Lin.
"The imperial sister-in-law's tea really lives up to its reputation, and just smelling the smell makes people feel refreshed."
"It's nothing, you have to like it, how about asking someone to load you with a few tea bags and take them back to drink for yourself?" Feng Xiaoyue responded politely, and Murong Lin continued to ask.
"But you came here today, is there something going on? I don't think your posture looks like Dandan, come over for tea and greetings. ”
As he spoke, Murong Yin nodded slightly, then raised his right hand, and Qiguan behind him hurriedly brought over the gift placed on the desk.
"I'm ashamed to say it, brother, I used to be ignorant, and I always accidentally caused a lot of trouble to you, brother, and I still feel very ashamed when I think about it,"
"Now, my brother has become the crown prince, his status is not what it used to be, everything is from the public, I am afraid that my brother will inevitably have some unsober places, I just want you to be able to show some affection in the future."
Saying that, Murong Yin sighed pitifully, opened the four gift boxes in Qiguan's hand one by one, and spread them out on the tea house on his right, so that Murong Yin and them could see clearly.
"I know that the imperial sister-in-law has never liked any gold and silver jewelry, but she is not interested in these beautiful and refined antique treasures, my brother and I have collected a few antiquities from the previous dynasty outside, including a mahogany comb, a white marble incense burner, a white porcelain cup and a piece of snow-white coral."
"Although it's not worth any silver, it looks quite chic, give it to the imperial sister-in-law, I only hope that our two families will turn their rivalry into jade silk from now on, and the imperial brother will forgive me for the wrong things I have done in the past."
When the words landed, Murong Yin pushed these things forward slightly, originally wanting to ask Siben to quickly and have the vision to help his master put them away.
But Siben looked at the faces of Murong Lin and Feng Xiaoyue, as if he didn't plan to ask for it, so he just pretended to be stupid as if he had no conditions.
Although these things carry the name of an antiquity from a previous dynasty, they are really not worth much on the market, and Murong Yin's taste is not bad, these things are very fresh and elegant.
However, Feng Xiaoyue is not such a shallow-eyed person, she will be blinded by a small benefit, especially in Murong Yin's speech at the beginning, and she also buried a few minefields for her family intentionally or unintentionally, so how could she be confident and bold to take these things back.
And Murong Lin on the side was also silent, and it seemed that he should have the same intention as her.
Murong Yin looked at Siben's refusal to come over and take the things, and the couple were also good at pretending not to hear, so they couldn't help but raise their voices and specially reminded them.
"You blind minion, don't you see that these things are still here, why don't you hurry over and put them away, can't you still ask your master and them to come and do it himself?"
"Don't be busy, you don't have to blame him first, but tell us to take a look again." Hearing this, Murong Lin also knew that it was not good for him to continue to be stunned, so he hurriedly interrupted him.
"You came to give us something, it was originally your kindness, but there are some things that we can't fool around like this, we have to make it clear."
"This is not an ordinary human exchange, what else is there to say?" Murong Yin was stunned, and was inevitably a little caught off guard by Murong Lin's words.
"But it's not that my brother deliberately wants to trouble you, it's that this brother still has to settle accounts, let alone people like us." Murong Lin said an understatement, and the key to this problem was turned back.
Hearing this, Feng Xiaoyue also raised her handkerchief to block her nose and coughed lightly to show that she had the same idea as him.
"If you come to talk to me for some of the previous festivals, I am not the kind of person who cares, and I will definitely not continue to entangle with you."
Even if these things were at the beginning, they did have a great impact on Murong Lin. If it weren't for Feng Xiaoyue's cleverness by his side, who often came over to help, I was afraid that Murong Lin might really be taken to the gutter by Murong Yin.
When Murong Lin spoke, Murong Yin listened to it with hatred, but because of the excuse he made when he came over, he had to continue to listen pretending to be ignorant and ignorant.
"But you have already said it yourself, I am now expected by my father to be mentioned in the position of the crown prince, but because of this, I should be more rigorous than before, if you really did something stupid because you didn't investigate for a while, I can't ignore the laws of the court because of our relationship."
Murong Lin was talking, seeing that Murong Yin's face was a little not good-looking, he rolled his eyes, and finally couldn't bear to say too much, so he slowed down his attitude a little.
"Naturally, if you keep to yourself, even if you are implicated in some small things, as long as you really have not participated, after we investigate clearly, we will definitely not let you suffer a trace of wrongdoing, you can rest assured."
These words sound quite like a competent elder brother, who takes care of his younger brother, but in the ears of Murong Yin, who has ulterior motives, it is completely useless.
Murong Yin's heart was like a mess, holding back his anger made him very uncomfortable, but he had to barely pull out a relieved smile on his face.
"Brother Huang said that it is indeed true, but it is really my brother that I have asked too much. I hope that Brother Wang will forgive me for coming here today and talking nonsense, just because I have never said these words. ”
After that, Murong Yin got up and was about to leave, while Feng Xiaoyue quickly stood up and stopped the person.
"Wait a minute, second brother, please stay first." Seeing Murong Yin standing up and turning around, Feng Xiaoyue stepped forward with a faint smile and locked up all the gifts on the table.
"As the saying goes, no merit is not lost, although this is your kindness, but after all, we can't do what you want, if you take these things down again, we really don't want to go, so please take it back and play with it yourself."
As soon as these words came out, Feng Xiaoyue hurried before Murong Yin could say anything to refuse, so she hurriedly handed these gift boxes to Qiguan's hands.
Feng Xiaoyue's identity is also a princess, and what she personally took over, even if Murong Yin is now the identity of the prince, I am afraid that she will not have such a big face to refuse.
Murong Yin sneered meaninglessly, casually greeted a few words, asked Qiguan to take down the things, and went back the same way.
After sending Murong Yin away, Murong Lin stretched out with relief and collapsed on the chair.
"On weekdays, he always comes up with some bad ideas and stabs him in the back, but I didn't expect him to come directly and make people more troublesome, if that's the case, it's better to let him be the same as before."
"It all shows that the gun is easy to block and the arrow is difficult to defend, he came to talk to you head-on, there are so many people who see it, you don't have to be afraid of what conspiracy he is doing, why are you still disgusted now? If he really has any idea again, I'm afraid that you won't even cry when you do. ”
Feng Xiaoyue wiped her hands and patted him gently with the handkerchief.
"But it's so weird that he came here today, do you know why he came like this?" Murong Lin yawned, sat up from the stool and glanced at her head-on, while Feng Xiaoyue lowered her head and pinched her chin with both hands.
"But there is no warning, that is, some time ago, it was said that he was left by the people in the palace to talk for a while, or when I went to the palace, I overheard."
"But whether it's because of this or not, it's definitely not a good thing that he will come over like this, there must be a demon when things go wrong, I think you have to be more careful."
"Now that my father is in the prime of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the people in the court have their own ghosts, they haven't cleaned up yet, who will hit me with the idea? As long as my father is in good health and still in good health, even if they pull me down, it will be useless. ”
Murong Lin thought about it for a while, but he always felt that Feng Xiaoyue's worries were a little redundant here, "What's more, I don't care about the position of the crown prince, just like you said, except for being more rigorous in official affairs, but more tired, there is no benefit at all,"
"Even if I'm just a prince, I can still do things for my father, and those people are still delusional."
It stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with Murong Lin thinking so, but what makes Feng Xiaoyue uneasy in his heart is his current attitude of not caring.
While the two of them were talking in the antechamber, a porter hurried into the outside.
"Report to the crown prince, the crown princess, His Royal Highness the King of Han has arrived."
"Please." Hearing this, Murong Lin and Feng Xiaoyue were both stunned, and after calling the porter to open the door for someone, they hurriedly got up and went out to greet them in person.
