Chapter 25: Sui Yuan (6)
Speaking of Liu Qingyan's provocation of so many insects and ants today, all of you also feel strange. Liu Qingyan even said that she has never been a physique that provokes insects and ants, and today's scene really makes people feel numb when they think of it.
Lu Miaohong had just sat at the same table with Chen Muzhi, but now that she had changed the table, she was still at the same table, and she felt closer than ordinary people, so she praised: "Sister Muzhi, I admire you so much." In the past, I only heard that the second lady of Anguo Gongjia was beautiful and fierce, but today I can see it. ”
Zheng Cunfang didn't follow: "My sister, beauty is extremely beautiful, where is it fierce, it is obviously called brave." ”
Qiu Lin clapped his hands with a smile: "Sister Miaohong said the wrong thing, and she will be punished with a glass of wine." ”
Lu Miaohong was also bold, picked up the wine glass, and drank a glass of daughter red.
When the partners were clapping, Zheng Cunfang quietly tugged on Chen Muzhi's sleeve, signaling that she had something to say.
Under the pretext that they were too drunk to drink, they wanted to go to the garden to blow the wind, and walked out of the flower hall holding hands.
Finally walked to a secluded place, Chen Muzhi listened attentively, there were only birds chirping everywhere, and there was no sound, so he pulled Zheng Cunfang to stand still.
"Do you know who Liu Qingyan is?" Zheng Cunfang asked.
"Isn't it the daughter of Yuanma Shaoqing Liu Sheng?"
Zheng Cunfang asked again: "All of you here today are royalty and nobles and members of the second rank or above, although my father is only of the third grade, my grandfather and grandmother are prominent. That Liu Sheng's family, transferred to the capital from the bitter cold land of Gwangju, has no roots and no foundation, and is only a fourth grade so far, but his daughters can be invited to the banquet, what do you say? ”
Chen Muzhi thought for a while, and said strangely: "Sure enough, yes, just say that the sisters and sisters at our table, which one is not a famous lady, Liu Qingyan is indeed a little inferior." Could it be ...... Does the Liu family have a relationship with the county king's mansion? ”
"Hey, why are you getting smarter and smarter?"
Zheng Cunfang smiled and nodded at Chen Muzhi's head: "I used to tell you something, I can't turn a corner, I can't understand when I turn a corner, and I am anxious if I don't understand, how can I turn a corner by myself now?" ”
Naturally, now it is Chen Muxi's smart brain and Chen Muzhi's cleverness, not to mention turning around, even turning around.
Chen Muzhi smiled and said, "If you are blown by the sea breeze for a few months, you will naturally turn around." What is the relationship between the Liu family and the county king's mansion? ”
Zheng Cunfang's face was flushed, but he still restrained his shyness and said: "The Wei family Shilang is discussing marriage with Liu Qingyan, and the princess of Jin'er County is taking advantage of the birthday banquet to see Liu Qingyan." ”
"I'm afraid I'll look at you too, right?" Chen Muzhi smiled evilly.
"Nasty!" Zheng Cunfang fist hammered, "I haven't written the eight characters yet, my father may not agree yet, Wei Jiashilang and Liu Qingyan, but there is some rumor outside." ”
Chen Muzhi thought for a while: "The county lord of Lanxin is twenty years old, aren't the Wei family Shilang and Wulang older?" ”
"Not really." Zheng Cunfang pouted, "This Wei family is all eccentric masters, Wei Lanhai is twenty-four, and Wei Lanzhou will be twenty-two." Even this age is too big, and my mother has not let go. ”
Chen Muzhi looked at Zheng Cunfang sympathetically: "Bless that Wei Lanzhou to be younger, don't stand next to you, like your uncle." ”
Zheng Cunfang chirped: "Bah, you should bless this thing if it doesn't work." Wei Lanzhou was born young or old, what does it have to do with me. ”
"It's a big deal. My aunt is also a discerning person, if this Wei family Wulang is born with a talent, maybe my aunt will nod. ”
"Phew! Phew! ”
The two laughed at each other, and Chen Muzhi finally returned to the topic: "Cunfang, in this way, the two conspirators today are going to harm Liu Qingyan, not you." ”
Zheng Cunfang hated: "It's not. I was also in a hurry, and I didn't even think about this layer. Don't talk about me, I don't know anything outside, so if you want to say the word Gao Pan, it shouldn't be me. If you put it on Liu Qingyan, it makes sense. ”
"Although the Liu family is a fourth grade, the Wei family Shilang is also a little older, and the word Gao Pan is also far-fetched."
Zheng Cunfang sighed: "This Miss Liu, she is a concubine ......."
"I see." Chen Muzhi suddenly realized, "In this way, the lady who is with her should be her mother-in-law, but not her biological mother?" ”
"Exactly, that is Liu Shaoqing's main wife."
Chen Muzhi nodded: "I said, if it is a biological mother, not to mention that her daughter is bitten by insects and ants, she is bitten by a tiger, and her own mother will definitely sacrifice her life to save her daughter." Today, Mrs. Liu was too indifferent. ”
Zheng Cunfang looked around and said in a low voice: "Actually, Wei Lanhai was still the favored choice of the nobles in his early years, and he has behaved out of line over the years, and no noblewoman is willing to marry him. So I didn't expect Liu Qingyan to go before, who would be jealous of her marrying Wei Shilang. ”
Chen Muzhi understood, and said with a long sigh: "The one who doesn't want her to marry into the county king's mansion is none other than her mother-in-law." ”
"That's why I called you out, and I figured it out."
Zheng Cunfang said: "Just now I saw the maid serving beside Mrs. Liu, who was wearing a light purple skirt, which was quite similar to what I saw behind the rockery. You think, Mrs. Liu and Liu Qingyan sat together before, and it was so convenient for her to sprinkle medicine on Liu Qingyan's body. ”
"Tut, it must be very difficult to live in the hands of this kind of mother-in-law." Chen Muzhi shook his head sympathetically.
Zheng Cunfang asked, "Shall we tell her?" ”
Chen Muzhi said: "Qingyan, this young lady, is kind and honest, if you have the opportunity, remind her to pay attention to Mrs. Liu." As for this Wei Shilang, since the nobles in the capital are unwilling to marry, it is okay if Qingyan does not marry. ”
"The delicacies of the mountains and the sea can't stop some people's mouths, and beware of rotten tongues when they say bad things about people behind their backs."
A man's voice came from outside the wall not far away.
The two were taken aback, and Zheng Cunfang said in a low voice: "It's over, it's over, it's heard." ”
Chen Muzhi was also dumbfounded, with her ear power, if someone passed by outside, she would definitely be able to hear it early, why didn't she notice that there was someone outside the wall?
Fortunately, the man outside couldn't see the situation on this side of the wall, so he shouldn't know who it was.
"Let's go!" Chen Muzhi pulled Zheng Cunfang and was about to run.
Unexpectedly, the man said again: "Don't run, Second Miss Anguo Gong, if you run into the flower hall, I will come to Suiyuan to find you." ”
Chen Muzhi froze.
"Does this man know you? Who is it? Zheng Cunfang asked.
"I don't know...... But the voice seems familiar, where have I heard it. Chen Muzhi shook his head, but he still didn't think of where he had heard it.
The man outside said, "Ten zhang to the west, there is a pavilion on a high hill, and when you go up and take a look, you will know who I am." ”
"Don't go!" Zheng Cunfang stopped her, "Who knows what kind of villain this is, he doesn't sign up and doesn't report his surname, he has bad intentions!" ”
Chen Muzhi turned his head, already saw the pavilion, and whispered to Zheng Cunfang: "Don't be afraid, the pavilion is far away from the wall, and he can't make any waves." ”
Then he shouted outside the wall: "Eavesdropping thief, wait, I'll go at once!" ”
