Chapter 23: The Truth About the Officer
Zuo Zuo finally retracted his gaze.
Before Ying Ru left, she didn't see Zuozuo, not because she rested too late last night and overslept today. Zuozuo got up early in the morning, in other words, he didn't sleep all night.
I didn't dare to knock on the door to call Mr. for breakfast, because Mr. didn't go to bed until midnight, and he must be very tired. I didn't ask Mr. to have lunch, for fear that I would be embarrassed to see Mr. last night.
Although Zuo Zuo was sad and Mr. rejected her, he was also unusually teased by Mr. in the past few days, thinking that Mr. was also interested in her.
But if the gentleman is interested, he has been interested in the past nine years, how can he change his mind in just a few days.
I must have thought too much about it.
Zuo Zuo just wanted to wait for herself to calm down, and then plead guilty in front of her husband, she didn't want to let her husband stay further away from her because of this matter.
Before, whenever she showed her heart, her husband would alienate her. How could I not know this time that the incident last night was enough to make Mr. dare not talk to her anymore.
But she didn't expect that the husband avoided her directly and went to the Waterscape Courtyard.
As the maid in the house said, only when the husband is in a bad mood, he will go there alone to get clean.
She annoyed Mr...... Zuo Zuo thought so.
Therefore, when Mr. left, she just secretly hid behind the gate of Yingfu. When the gentleman was far away, he came out from behind the door and looked in the direction he had left.
Feeling depressed in my heart. I didn't want to, but I was seen by Young Master Gu, who came to visit the house. And asked her.
In the past two days, Young Master Gu has come to the house every day to ask if Mr. is not there, and Mr. went to the Waterscape Courtyard to be clean, and he must not want people to pester her anymore. Therefore, Zuo Zuo did not reply to his question, but went straight to the topic and said, "Young Master Gu is still looking for Mr. today?" The gentleman is not there. And added, "I won't be in the mansion for a few days, so Young Master Gu should please go back." ”
She just wanted Young Master Gu to give up the idea of looking for Mr., but Gu Lanjun guessed from her words that Mr. Ying was still in the mansion before, but he may not be in the mansion today, and the girl Zuo Zuo also added a "I won't be in the house for a few days", he looked at the direction that the girl Zuo Zuo was looking at before, maybe Mr. Ying went somewhere, and he didn't bring Zuo Zuo with him when he talked about business, although Mr. Ying sometimes talked about business and didn't bring Zuo Zuo, but it was impossible to talk about business and not return to the house for a few days, and saw the lost expression of the girl Zuo Zuo.
Obviously, Mr. Ying deliberately didn't take her with him, and went to a place where she couldn't keep up.
I heard that Mr. Ying built a floating courtyard in Yubei Lake, the scenery is very good, and it is particularly quiet. Every time I get upset, I will go over and stay for a few days. Even more so, people in the house are not allowed to disturb in the past. Including his special preferential treatment of the left left.
Gu Lanjun had a measure in his heart, so he shook his hand and left pretending not to bother anymore. got into the carriage and returned the same way, but in the middle of the road, the coachman turned around and went to Yubei Lake to find out.
At first, he just wanted to find Mr. Ying, but when he arrived in front of the courtyard, he shouted twice on the water corridor, but no one answered.
At this time, Fei Ye, who was flying to the woods to catch Ying Ru who fell from the tree with a sword, probably Ying Ruyi's shouting distracted him, and he didn't notice that a carriage was coming, and even more so when he picked the fruit for Ying Ru and questioned that she hadn't lived here, he didn't notice that someone shouted "Mr. Ying" twice in front of the courtyard, and after not hearing a response, he stepped forward and spied into all the rooms, and at the door of the princess's room, through the gap in the window, he saw inside.
Gu Lanjun pressed the window as if he had never been here, but he gained something more exciting than cooperating with Mr. Ying. Mr. Ying actually hid the princess who ran away from marriage.
The princess ran away from marriage and eloped with the guards, and the streets and alleys were full of portraits of the princess and the guards, how could he not recognize the princess inside.
Although I didn't see the guards, fortunately I didn't see the guards, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to step out of this waterscape courtyard alive.
He happily let the coachman drive the carriage all the way to the Zhizhou Mansion and conspired with Lord Liu Qing Xuanliu on how to recover the princess and put the charge on Mr. Ying's head, and then embezzled all Mr. Ying's property.
The money and wealth all belong to Lord Liu, and the shops belong to him.
Because he is an official, he is not allowed to be a businessman, and it is useless to ask for a shop, so Liu Qingxuan agreed. After all, Mr. Guangying's treasury is more than 100 times the 10,000 bounty.
This is why Ying Ru didn't understand, why when the officers and soldiers caught up with her, Liu Qingxuan ignored the princess's life and wanted to charge her with murdering the princess.
Although the crime of hiding the princess to death, it will not rob the house, Gu Lanjun and Liu Qingxuan want to embezzle Mr. Ying's property, and it is necessary to increase Mr. Ying's crime, and among the many crimes, there is no more suitable than the crime of murdering the princess.
Although Mr. Ying usually did not stuff benefits into the pockets of Lord Zhizhou, in the face of all Mr. Ying's belongings, Liu Qingxuan naturally chose the latter.
And arresting the Qin criminal, recovering the princess, and rewarding meritorious service is not only a bounty, but also a possible promotion. Liu Qingxuan didn't want others to share his credit, so he secretly took away the two officers and soldiers from the Imperial Shadow Division and went to the princess's hiding place, Mr. Ying's Waterscape Courtyard.
But how could he not let Shen Shen, the envoy of the Imperial Shadow Division, not notice his actions of dispatching hundreds of officers and soldiers. With nineteen masters, he chased after him.
I don't want to rob him of his merits, but when the snipe and mussels are fighting, I just take advantage of the fisherman.
And on the left left of the house, I heard the subordinates say that I saw some officers and soldiers going in the direction of Mr.'s Waterscape Courtyard. Although I don't know if the officers and soldiers are coming to Mr. Chong, after Zuozuo learned the news, he immediately asked the coachman to lead the carriage and rushed to Yubei Lake.
Just afraid that something would happen to her husband, her eyelids kept jumping, but halfway through, the wheels fell off their axles, and she abandoned the carriage and walked through the woods, but when she arrived in front of the courtyard, the officers and soldiers had already arrived before her.
A black-clothed boy she didn't know was fighting with officers and soldiers on the verandah of another courtyard, while her husband crawled out of the lake and was wet with a girl.
She hadn't seen that girl either.
However, it was so good-looking.
Although her face is pale, she can't hide her beauty.
For a moment, she was stunned. Why is the gentleman with these two strangers? And besieged by officers and soldiers?
The only one who was recently arrested in Yizhou City was the guard who eloped with the princess. If the guard is the young man in black, then the gentleman is holding the princess in his arms?
How did the gentleman know the princess? Moreover...... Protect her like that.
Sure enough, men in the world love beauties.
She used nine years, but she couldn't make her husband like it, but Princess Chu Zhao, who is known as the first beauty in the country, can make her fall in love in a short period of time.
She thought that a man who was willing to do his best for a woman must love her.
But she didn't know that her husband was also a woman.
She just thinks that she is not beautiful enough.
