Chapter Fifty-Eight: Some Dramas Happen While They're Performing
Liu Pingle cried for half an hour before he stopped crying, when An Ge came in with hot water in a copper basin, he saw that her eyes were swollen, and she was stunned, as if she had been drained of three souls and seven spirits, the more she thought about it, the more distressed she became, put down the basin and sat with her, and said with concern: "Wash it, are you hungry?" Shall we go out to eat? ”
Liu Pingle still had water droplets hanging on his long eyelashes, and said in a dumb voice: "An Ge, do you think it is still possible for me and Li Gongzi?" Either I'll go and discuss with Guo Caiping, I'll be my wife and she will be a concubine, or I'll be a flat wife, okay? ”
An Ge became angry when he heard it: "Pingle, wake up!" Don't spoil yourself anymore, okay? Don't say that Li Ling is not worthy of you at all, even if he is worthy, you are the daughter of a third-grade minister's family to be a flat wife? Also, Li Ling doesn't know who Guo Caiping is, don't we know? She wants to fight for everything, do you think she can wronged herself under you? and called her a concubine......"
"But I'm ...... But I've been in love with him for so long......" Liu Pingle sniffed and said, "Besides, he's right, he was just deceived by Guo Caiping." ”
An Ge sighed helplessly, twisted a handful of face cloth, wiped her face, and persuaded her: "Someone told me today that Li Ling is not so kind and simple, he chose Guo Caiping, but because he wanted to worship Guo Chongde's ......."
Liu Pingle shook his head again and again: "How is this possible?" Although my father is not as high as Guo Chongde, he is about the same. ”
"It's not so simple to look at which official is more useful to him in the court from the grade, your father is from the Ministry of Industry, and Guo Chongde is from the Ministry of Officials. Although Li Ling is now in Guozijian, Guozijian belongs to the Ministry of Rites, and Xu Qiyan, the number one person in Guozijian today, is also a capable person who won the list at one time with him, and he is still the champion, and his words in the Ministry of Rites will always be suppressed by Xu Qiyan, so he wants to jump out of the Ministry of Rites to develop in the Ministry of Officials, and he met Guo Caiping, who took the initiative to help him, so he naturally chose her. ”
"Look at what you said, it seems that Li Gongzi is such a person who climbs the flames." Liu Pingle pursed his lips, a little unconvinced, "Besides, it's all six, how much worse can it be?" What is the difference between worshipping under my father's door and worshipping Guo Caiping's father's door? ”
"The gap between the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Industry is a lot......" An Ge saw that Liu Pingle was no longer crying, put the washcloth into the basin, and said, "In short, Li Ling is not a good match, you have died to him." And Guo Caiping and Li Ling are ......" An Ge thought for a while, chuckled, and said, "I think the most important thing between husband and wife is to treat each other with sincerity, the two of them are good, one pretends to be weak, the other pretends to be kind, unless the two of them can pretend to be a lifetime, otherwise they will reveal each other's true nature in the future, and it will definitely ...... There has to be a good show to watch. ”
Liu Pingle exhaled deeply, although he still didn't think Li Ling was wrong, but he was still convinced by what An Ge said about the six parts and the one about Guo Caiping, and said sincerely: "An Ge, you are so powerful, you are obviously about the same age as me, but you know a lot more than me, as far as the six parts you just said, my father is among the six parts, I don't understand it." ”
"I listened to what my father said, his only preference is to pull me to talk about the affairs of the DPRK and China, in fact, I have listened to it for so many years and I don't know much about it, and the knowledge in it is deep." Seeing that Liu Pingle's mood had calmed down a lot, An Ge breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Are you going to the Mansion tomorrow?" Do you want me to take a leave of absence for you, and you have a day off? ”
"Of course, I still have half a chapter to finish." After Liu Pingle finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, got up and took a photo of the bronze mirror, and suddenly cried again, "Ah, why are my eyes swollen like this?" If I go to Di Bao Mansion tomorrow and be seen by Guo Caiping's little slut, I will definitely laugh at me! I don't want to lose Li Ling and lose face! ”
An Ge tilted his head and looked at her for a while, then suddenly got up and rummaged through the cabinet next to his bed, then took out a delicate small box, unscrewed it and said, "You use this, this one works very well, and it won't be swollen tomorrow." ”
"Really? What is this? Liu Pingle leaned over curiously, An Ge dipped his finger a little around her eyes, Liu Pingle only felt that the area around the eye sockets was cool, very comfortable, and there was a refreshing fragrance of flowers, and suddenly asked curiously, "An Ge, what is this thing?" Where did you buy it? ”
An Ge said vaguely: "It's called flower fat rice paste, and it was given by a friend." ”
"Which friend?" Liu Pingle was interested, glanced at the box again, and said, "Looking at the box like a royal thing in the palace, could it be that the people in the palace gave it to you?" Who is it? Did the queen give it away? Wrong...... If the queen had sent it, you would have told me a long time ago, since you didn't tell me, it seems that there should be something inconvenient to say......" Liu Pingle analyzed, his eyes lit up, and said, "Is it the Imperial Doctor Su?" He is still talking to you alone today! What is the relationship between the two of you? ”
“…… It doesn't matter. An Ge looked at the medical case of Concubine Jing placed at the head of her bed, she didn't know how conscientious Su Yi'an was to her affairs, and she also knew that he cared about her, but ...... Before, I just wanted to take my mother's posthumous work, and I felt that I didn't have the extra strength to talk about Fengyue again, but now I know that the cause of my mother's death is suspicious, and I feel that the road ahead is long, "What does it matter?" It's just acquaintances. ”
"Huh...... All right. Liu Pingle sighed in frustration, and said to An Ge earnestly, "You haven't opened up about this matter yet, and when you do, maybe you will be like me to Li Gongzi, and I will make up my mind at a glance." ”
"Don't mention him again, let's go to the Dibao Mansion tomorrow to deal with Guo Caiping head-on." An Ge laughed.
Liu Pingle thought so, and immediately dragged his shoes and climbed into bed: "Yes, I don't know how Guo Caiping will show off in front of me tomorrow!" I definitely don't lose this breath! ”
An Ge smiled, and after freshening up, he also fell asleep.
After getting up the next day, Liu Pingle immediately went to look in the mirror, and sure enough, he found that his eyes were not swollen at all, and Xing'er, who came to serve her early in the morning, did not notice anything wrong at all. After freshening up, Liu Pingle went to the Dibao Mansion with An Ge.
The two of them guessed really well, after Guo Caiping and Li Ling's matter was decided, she came to show off early this day, and when An Ge and Liu Pingle stepped into the courtyard, they heard Zhang Lianfeng say with a smile: "Oh, it seems that our mansion is going to have a happy event again, when is your marriage with Master Li set?" It's good to let everyone in our mansion prepare congratulatory gifts in advance. ”
Guo Caiping chuckled and said: "Where is Lord Zhang, you don't know that Liu Pingle loved Master Li miserably before, you don't know how much she has done for Lord Li, I can't help but be moved when I hear it." But where is this kind of thing wishful thinking to be good to the other party? Hey, now that Master Li has chosen me, what kind of good face can she give me? Give me a congratulatory gift, don't laugh, don't make trouble. ”
Liu Pingle originally had Li Ling in her heart, but at most, she looked better when she came to Yingmao, and she didn't talk to Li Ling alone in private, where did she do anything to Li Ling with wishful thinking?
Guo Caiping shows off herself, and she has to step on Liu Pingle, which is really infuriating.
Liu Pingle stepped into the side hall in a few steps, and immediately dismantled her platform and said: "Didn't you cry in front of Lord Li yesterday and say that you were bullied in the Dibao Mansion and in your family, so you won Lord Li's sympathy?" ”
Yu Yuanyuan immediately looked at her in surprise: "Cai Ping, you have no conscience when you say that, right?" Am I bad for you? What's wrong with me not wanting you? Don't talk about the others, even if An Ge and you often quarrel, she hasn't bullied you. ”
"Oh, if she doesn't call all the people in our mansion a wicked person, how can she gain Lord Li's sympathy?" Liu Pingle chuckled and said, "You don't have to argue with me, if you don't admit it, when Master Li comes over today, how about we confront each other face to face?" ”
Guo Caiping sneered and said: "You, the defeated subordinate, can only speak as fast as you here, others don't choose you, you should find the reason from yourself, you are as fat as a pig and embarrassed to take the initiative to pursue such an excellent man......"
An Ge was still standing in the courtyard, and she had just noticed that when Liu Pingle rushed in, two men walked in from outside together, one of them was Li Ling and the other was ...... She saw Li Ling walking behind him, and he looked very respectful, and guessed from the dress and age of the person in front of him that he should be Li Ling's number one upper class, the champion of the new department, and the current Guozi Priest Xu Qiyan.
The windows and doors of the side hall were open, and the two of them heard the quarrel between Liu Pingle and Guo Caiping clearly, An Ge turned around, greeted the two with a smile, and said to Li Ling with a smile: "Lord Li, do you still think that Miss Guo is being bullied in our mansion?" ”
Xu Qiyan glanced at An Ge strangely, then looked back at Li Ling, puzzled: "Who is this?" ”
Li Ling wrinkled his brows, obviously not wanting An Ge to say anything more, and said: "Lord Xu, this is Lord An who made a mistake this time, we are now in charge of investigating this case, Lord Xu might as well ask her in detail." ”
An Ge smiled slightly, scholars have always boasted of being high, this champion must be no exception, if he knew that his subordinate was a person who climbed the flame and violated the agreement, would he go to him selflessly?
She didn't let Xu Qiyan be led astray by Li Ling, and said, "Hey, didn't Master Li keep saying that we bullied Miss Guo yesterday?" Now that I have seen Miss Guo's pungent appearance with my own eyes, why are you not surprised at all? Oh, I understand, Master Li doesn't care if she's spicy or not, as long as she's the daughter of the Ministry of Shangshu. Hey, if you want to take refuge in Lord Guo's disciples, just go to Guo's mansion and say no to Lord Guo? Why did you have to make a private appointment with Miss Liu before? Now he has violated the agreement, is it a gentleman's doing? ”
Li Ling saw that Xu Qiyan's eyes were becoming more and more unpredictable, and hurriedly explained: "Regarding this matter, I have already explained it clearly yesterday, Miss Guo has been bullied at home, and I really can't bear to be bullied at home by such a good girl, so I will regret it...... This matter is that I am sorry for Miss Liu, I will come to the door to make amends one day, why should Miss An be aggressive? ”
