Chapter 41: The Pipa Girl Ponders
Liu Qu's matter ended with their death, there were applause, there were sighs and sighs, and finally turned into a conversation after dinner, after a long time, no one will talk too much, a wave of past, is the lake that slowly subsides.
It's just that the doubts in Han Zeng's heart are still unsolved, and after returning to Chang'an, it happened that the person who was holding the pipa and playing music at sunset was waiting outside the Hou Mansion with a small servant.
"Dare to ask the little brother, the dragon is in the house, my girl offended the Hou Ye last time, and I am here to compensate for it, and I ask the little brother to report it." The girl sat in a soft sedan chair, and the little maid stepped forward to deal with the gatekeeper of the Hou Mansion, and was very humble with him.
The doorkeeper of the Long'e Marquis's Mansion looked at the girl's sedan chair, "In this case, you wait here first, and I will go to tell the Hou Ye." "Except for Huo Chengjun, no woman has come to look for Han Zeng like this, and I heard that the two have intersected, so the subordinates naturally attach great importance to it.
Han Zeng listened to the words of his subordinates, and still didn't understand who it was, so he twisted his eyebrows, "Let them in." Han Zeng had long forgotten about Luoyinxuan, and how could he still think about who had offended him, but out of curiosity, he still let people enter the Hou Mansion, and Han Zeng was not afraid of any ill-intentioned person, he was already a man, if he was calculated by a woman, it would be a joke to spread it.
"I've seen Master Hou", the woman walked in with a pipa, but the red clothes were not bewitching, and the same shade of tulle as the clothes covered half of her face, and she squatted shallow and gave a salute, and her voice was soft and pleasant.
Han Zeng couldn't recognize that face, but through this voice and the gesture of holding the pipa in his hand, Han Zeng could instantly remember that it was the person who let himself return from disappointment in Luoyinxuan that day, hooked his thin lips, "Listen to the people in my house, the girl is here to apologize, but Han someone remembers that when I left that day, the girl didn't feel wrong at all, so how can I apologize today?" Besides, the girl should know what I want to hear, and if it is not what I want, the girl should take it back. ”
"It was Pipa who offended that day, and invited Hou Ye Haihan, but Pipa remembered that Hou Ye had said that as long as Pipa was willing, he could go to Hou Mansion to find Hou Ye......" There was no apology in his words, but a little more cold smile, which made Han Zeng couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
"The girl's name is Pipa?" Seeing her nodding, she said, "The pipa girl has good skills, Han didn't say where she lived, but she still let the girl find it." Han Zeng didn't reveal who he was that day, but he didn't want to find this person anyway, he must have inquired about it, what was her purpose in doing this, the cautious Han Zeng couldn't help but think deeply.
Seeing Han Zeng's probing and defensive gaze, Pipa just said lightly, "There are not many people surnamed Han in Chang'an City, among these people, there are not many people who dare to inquire about the affairs of Huo Mansion, except for you Hou Ye, but there is a second person, the little girl thought about trying, but it was really accurate." "Actually, with Han Zeng's fame, it is not difficult to find him, and there are only those who can have a special room in Luoyinxuan to prepare, and there are only those who are not rich or noble, and he is so fearless that day, and his demeanor is even easier to recognize.
"The girl is willing to do what Han wants, so let's go to the inner hall." Han Zeng didn't care whether the woman followed or not, he just went to the inner hall by himself, and hoped that the mystery in his heart could find some answers in her songs, after Guangchuan came back, Han Zeng felt more and more that Huo Chengjun suddenly agreed to enter the palace, and did not listen to any persuasion, it was too strange.
Without any hesitation, the woman followed Han Zeng to the inner hall, but her lips under the veil were pursed.
In the palace, Chun Yuyan finally entered the palace under Huo Xian's arrangement, and when he arrived at the Jiaofang Palace, it happened that Liu Yi was already there, and after saluting with a little trepidation, although Liu Yu was kind at this time, Chun Yuyan was still weak and afraid, after all, he was carrying a murder case, and it was a homicide case of that kind of person, and he almost died because of this case, how could Chun Yuyan feel at ease under his gaze.
Huo Chengjun, who knew the cause and effect, couldn't help but be apprehensive when he saw that Chun Yuyan and Liu Yi had met, and hurriedly interrupted the particularly long silence, "Your Majesty, this Chun Yuyan ......."
Before Huo Chengjun finished his words, Liu Yi raised his hand to interrupt, "Since the person is here, he will serve the queen well." For Chun Yuyan, Liu Yi has made no secret of the indifference in his eyes.
Chun Yuyan couldn't help but shiver on this hot day, Huo Chengjun also felt the coldness in Liu Ai's eyes, but he felt puzzled, he obviously didn't know the cause of Xu Pingjun's death, but why did he have such an attitude towards Chun Yuyan, looking at Liu Ai with puzzled eyes, wanting to ask but not daring to ask, Huo Chengjun would rather deceive himself and tell himself that Liu Ai didn't know anything, so that he could enjoy his pampering and gentleness.
Perhaps feeling the doubt in Huo Chengjun's eyes, Liu Yi had already picked up Huo Chengjun's hand and replaced it with a warm tenderness, "Chengjun, Chun Yuyan is here, let her recuperate and recuperate for you, she has also treated Pingjun before, but I hope that Queen Huo will not have any accidents under your recuperation!" By the time of the last sentence, the cold air that had already surrounded Liu Ai came to his face again.
Liu Ai's words were sincere, after Xu Pingjun, it was rare to meet a Huo Chengjun who was completely different from her, and it also awakened her dusty heart again, after the trip to Guangchuan, Liu Ai didn't want to try the pain of losing again.
Chun Yuyan arrived at the Jiaofang Hall for a while, Liu Ai had already left because of the court, but what really came was the Phixiang Palace, pregnant Rong Jieyu, Liu Ai had come back or took the initiative to see her for the first time, Rong Jieyu was very happy, and hurriedly greeted her.
Huo Xian's heart was good, and he was also happy, and when he saw that Liu Yi had already favored Huo Chengjun, his arrogance rose a lot, but he knew that Huo Guang didn't like it, but when Huo Guang was in the house, he restrained a lot.
And Bing Ji and Shangguan Youhao were shocked when they learned that Chun Yuyan had entered the palace, and it stands to reason that Chun Yuyan should be kept away from Liu Ai's gaze, but she deviated from Liu Ai and was getting closer and closer, which undoubtedly threw down a stone in the already calm hearts of the two, causing countless ripples.
After Bing Ji learned about it, he hurriedly went to Huo Mansion to find Huo Guang, just wanting to ask him if he knew about it.
"Zimeng, you are really sick and confused, no matter whether Your Majesty will notice it or not, such a big living person, now in the Jiaofang Palace, do you think Your Majesty will not remember some of the past? Your Majesty's scene during that time, you always remember, in case it was like that again, didn't you harm Chengjun? When Bing Ji knew that Huo Guang also agreed to this, he was so anxious that he stomped his feet, but he was worried about what Liu Yi had already planned, after all, this was also what he agreed.
"His Majesty came to such grief at that time, and now how can he live more and more? Shaoqing, you see His Majesty's treatment of King Guangchuan, which shows that he is still benevolent and righteous, I think, as long as Chengjun does not go wrong, that matter should also pass. For Huo Chengjun, Huo Guang is relieved, the reason why he will let Chun Yuyan enter the palace is also because he knows Huo Xian too well, and he is afraid that she will not succeed in another plan, but on the contrary, he agreed, with Huo Chengjun staring at the palace, there is not much chance of chaos.
"I hope it's as you wish...... "People have entered the palace, Bing Ji can't say anything, plus Huo Guang has his own thoughts, this matter is also their family matter in the final analysis, and he can only remind him that it is always not okay to meddle all the time.
Shangguan Youhao didn't rush directly into the Jiaofang Hall like Bing Ji, but called Song Bang on the side, "Song Bang, what do you think of this Chun Yuyan Palace?" ”
"This must be Mrs. Huo's intention, the Rong family is pregnant, promoted from beauty to Jieyu, moved from the court to the Phixiang Palace, and Queen Huo was favored by His Majesty to leave the room, but there was no movement at all, she was in a hurry." Song Wan sneered a little, she had always disdained Huo Xian.
"I haven't been so hostile to her, and I wonder why you have such a big opinion?" Shangguan Youhao shook her head helplessly, she had always known about Song Wan's attitude towards Huo Xian, but with a sigh, she didn't think about anything else, "Let's go to Jiaofang Hall to have a look." "Speaking of which, I still can't rest assured that Huo Chengjun is relieved, and there are some things that Shangguan Youhao also feels necessary to remind Huo Chengjun, especially Liu Zheng's childish words that day.
Huo Chengjun was worried, but not as deep as these people, but as Huo Guang said, he was still wary of Chun Yuyan, looked at her and looked around, and put away his tame face, "What does my mother have to tell you?" Knowing Huo Xian's intentions that day, Huo Chengjun also had to pay more attention, after all, this Chun Yuyan was his mother's henchman.
"Madame, teach courtiers and ladies to serve the queen well." flattering and flattering, full of smiles, bent over, and looked at Huo Chengjun.
"If that's the case, I won't allow any dirty things to appear in this Jiaofang Palace, and I won't allow anyone to play any tricks in this harem, especially Your Majesty's blood, I know your business, if something happens to them, the first person I will pursue is you, no matter what your mother says to you, you should know that when you enter the Jiaofang Palace, you should follow it with my order." After mentioning something, Huo Chengjun can be said to have sounded a wake-up call for her, but then she thought about it and didn't feel funny.
Chun Yuyan is a person who understands current affairs, listening to Huo Chengjun's words, she naturally nodded in response, and what Huo Xian taught her to do, she didn't dare to do it a second time when she picked up a life and came back, and Huo Guang was already in decline, and if something happened again, who knew if he could save himself, and he was even more afraid that because of this incident, the previous ones would also be involved.
Huo Chengjun saw that Chun Yuyan agreed, and he expected that she would not have the courage to commit it a second time, so he was at ease, and stayed in the palace with Chun Yuyan, of course, he also secretly instructed Yun Se to pay more attention to her movements.
When Pipa and Han Zeng returned to the front hall, she was about to say goodbye, but she heard Han Zeng ask, "Why is the girl named Pipa?" ”
"The little woman lives on the pipa, and I don't know where to go without this pipa, since the pipa is my life, why not take it as its name?" She curled her lips and turned away.
Han Zeng couldn't help but smile, that wonderful sound, he was more thinking about the meaning of the words, and what attracted him particularly was the sentence, "The beloved person is sad when the emperor is gone, and the Huo family has a daughter who finally gets his wish."
