Chapter 12 Apology
In the same afternoon, different from the little farce between Yu Xinling and Wen Qiye at the south gate of the city, Jiang Guangxi stood outside the gate of the imperial history's mansion, smiling helplessly, but he didn't leave, just stood there, as if waiting, between the two slaves behind him, there was a large box of mahogany inlaid with gold leaf, just looking at the box, it was worth a lot.
Qi Haoyuan came from afar, and saw Jiang Guangxi, who was smiling wryly and shaking a fan, standing in front of the gate of the Imperial History Mansion, and behind him were two slaves guarding the box. He walked up quickly to greet him, "Guangxi, are you here too?" ”
Jiang Guangxi turned his head and smiled gently at him, and said helplessly, "Yes, I don't want to go away, so I came to make amends to Lord Yushi." ”
"So, you're being turned away?" Qi Haoyuan looked at the closed door of the mansion, and then looked at Jiang Guangxi, "It's hard for you." ”
Jiang Guangxi was thinking about something back to him, but saw Qi Haoyuan walk a few steps to the door, and then knocked on the heavy door, the people in the house couldn't stand it, and someone hurriedly opened the door, poked his head out, and said, "What knock, my lord won't see ...... today" Before the words were finished, the servant looked at Qi Haoyuan and stopped talking, and said with a smile, "It turned out to be the general, the slave was rude, my lord said, I don't see a guest today, the general should go back." ”
Qi Haoyuan didn't care, and shouted, "Tell your lord, if he doesn't come out today, General Ben will smash the gate of this mansion." ”
The slave was also afraid of the weak, and seeing that Qi Haoyuan was not as good at talking as Jiang Guangxi, he hurriedly answered a few yes and ran into the mansion to report.
But after a while, Yushi walked out with a black face, Qi Haoyuan walked over, and said, "Thank you Lord Yushi for being willing to come forward to meet, Qi and Guangxi are specially here to apologize to you." ”
Yu Shi sneered coldly, "General Qi's way of apology is really unique, and he has to smash the old man's mansion." ”
Jiang Guangxi stepped forward and explained, "Lord Yushi, forgive me, it's really because I can't see you that I made this decision. He turned around and motioned for the servant to carry the box over, opened the box and said, "This is a little bit of Guangxi's preparation, and I hope that Lord Yushi will not blame Guangxi for being disrespectful to the court this morning." ”
Yushi glanced at the rare jewelry and antiques in the box, and then looked at the light, "You are sincere." ”
Jiang Guangxi was about to breathe a sigh of relief, and then heard Yu Shi say coldly, "But what's the use of this official's sincerity?" ”
Qi Haoyuan patted Jiang Guangxi's shoulder, looked at the imperial history, and said, "What the imperial historian means, Qi also understands, is nothing more than trying to find a family affair for Miss Qin, Qi is not talented, and he has the tiger talisman of our dynasty in his hand, if you don't mind, why don't you let Miss Qin find a time to go to the barracks to have a look, there are many meritorious and famous people in the three armies, and they may be able to find a good match for Miss Qin." ”
The more Yu Shi thought about it, the more excited he became, his beard trembled, and he grabbed Qi Haoyuan's wrist and said, "Really? ”
Qi Haoyuan nodded, a serious sentence, as if giving Yu Shi a reassurance, Yu Shi's eyes were red with excitement, and he said a few good words again and again......
Before leaving, Jiang Guangxi bowed his hand and said, "Please also ask Lord Yushi to accept Guangxi's apology, otherwise, Guangxi's heart will be uneasy." ”
Yushi excused himself with a few words, and seeing that he was persistent, he had to call the slave to carry the box into the mansion.
Bidding farewell to the imperial history, Qi Haoyuan put his arm around Jiang Guangxi's shoulders and said jokingly, "I didn't expect it, Guangxi and I want to go together." ”
Jiang Guangxi looked ashamed, "Where, Brother Qi is still thoughtful, and Guangxi will only use things outside his body to make amends." ”
Qi Haoyuan teased him a few words, and said, "You made such a big fuss in the court, are you okay to go back?" Qi Haoyuan couldn't help but tremble when he thought of Jiang Guangxi's stubborn, rigid and demanding father.
Jiang Guangxi shook his fan and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay, my father just hit me with the scroll, and he didn't smash it." ”
"Your father is getting more lenient with you." Qi Haoyuan thought that these days, no matter what Jiang Guangxi did wrong, Jiang's father rarely punished him to kneel in the ancestral hall or something, and he couldn't help but feel a little incredible.
"He, now he's working hard to find a lady for me, I was so troubled this morning, even the matchmaker didn't bother to come to the door, and I was happy to be at ease." Jiang Guangxi smiled, but there was loneliness in his eyes.
Qi Haoyuan didn't notice the change in him, and said with a smile, "Guangxi is really powerful, let's go, brother will take you to drink." ”
Then he hooked up with Jiang Guangxi and walked towards the restaurant.
In the palace of the king of Qi.
Ruan Di'er sat in the study, holding a letter in her hand, her eyes flashing with tears, and muttered to herself, "Cong Zhi, I also want to be by your side all the time, I don't care about anything, I don't care about anything, but what can I do?" Xi'er went to find out the cause of Honggu's death, it was Yu Xinling...... It was she, and she killed my only reliance...... I hate her, she is clearly the demon who kills people without blinking, where did Honggu offend her? Every time I had a quarrel with her, after I returned home, it was Honggu who persuaded me to ......"
She lay on the table and cried, still holding the letter with a few words written in her hand, "I didn't mean to disappoint you, Cong Zhi ......" Suddenly, she raised her head again, wiped the tears on her face indiscriminately, and carefully looked at the contents of the letter, "Is it ...... Are you still loving me like you used to be? I...... Yes, I have to write back to him, tell him, tell him that I will change, I will not make trouble in the future, I will be obedient, I will be fine as long as he loves me......" As she spoke, she whimpered and cried again.
Xi'er walked in from outside the room with pastries, and when she saw that she was still crying, she took out a silk handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears on her face, and comforted, "The county lord is not going to cry, his face is going to cry." ”
"Xi'er?" Ruan Di'er sobbed and cried, grinning again, "Cong Zhi's letter said that as long as I ...... I'm obedient, and he'll still love me, right? ”
Xi'er casually glanced at the contents of the letter, and then smiled, "Yes, county lord, that's what the second prince meant." Then he turned his head slightly, and his eyes seemed to be gratified, "In the future, the county lord should be very happy to marry the second prince." ”
It's good that she doesn't tilt her head, but Ruan Di'er happened to see the slap marks on her face, and grabbed her, "What's wrong with your face?" Who hit you? ”
Xi'er didn't seem to react, she was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, she subconsciously covered her face, "The slave is fine, I bumped into the door when I came." ”
"I don't believe it, it's clearly a slap in the face." Ruan Di'er pulled her and didn't let go, "Tell me, who is it?" ”
"Slave maid...... The slave maid ...... "Xi'er didn't seem to dare to speak, and her eyes were red with anxiety.
"Don't be afraid, no matter who it is, we will come back with him sooner or later." Ruan Di'er comforted her, "Just say it." ”
"The county lord can't...... Slaves...... The slave maid can't hurt the harmony between you and Princess Zhaoran......" Xi'er bowed her head violently, and her voice unconsciously cried.
"Yu Xinling? It's Yu Xinling again......" Ruan Di'er sat back on the stool and said angrily, "Honggu asked me not to hurt her many times when I was here, but what does it mean that she has made things difficult for me three or four times?" Do you really think that she can do whatever she wants one level above me? ”
"The county lord is angry, it's not worth it to be angry...... Xi'er pulled her sleeve, and her tearful eyes lined her with pity.
"Why did she make things difficult for you?" Ruan Di'er was reasonable, and only then did she remember that she didn't know why Yu Xinling was making it difficult for Xi'er, so she looked at her again and asked.
Xi'er lowered her eyes, bit her red lower lip lightly, and before she could say "slave maid......", her tears began to fall down, and she choked up, "When the slave maid goes to the queen to get the auspicious date of the county lord's wedding...... Passing by the Imperial Garden, I heard ...... Hearing ......" she seemed so sad that she couldn't go on anymore, sobbing and choking, and added, "Hear Zhaoran...... The princess said...... Say...... This time, he got rid of his mother...... It's broken...... Broke off the county lord's arm and arm...... The slave leaned over and listened...... Before I heard a few words, I ...... was discovered by the girl next to the princess...... The slave maid wanted to ask the princess why...... Why did she kill her mother, princess......... She...... But she flatly denied it, and beat the slave maid, saying...... Slave and maid...... Saying that the slave and maid are guilty of ......"
The more Ruan Di'er listened, the more angry she became, and she immediately slapped the table and stood up, shouting, "It's just lawless, Xi'er, don't cry, I'll go into the palace to find the queen's aunt and ask her to administer justice for us." ”
Xi'er grabbed her, "The county lord can't be impulsive, after all...... After all, we don't have any real evidence to prove that the princess is the murderer of my mother......"
"But...... We can't let Honggu die without turning a blind eye......" Ruan Di'er's eyes turned a little red, and the beauty had tears in her eyes, which was very good-looking, but unfortunately no one appreciated it at the moment, and her sweetheart was not guarding her......
"It's better to ...... We sent someone to inform the storytellers of this matter to the city, so that they could tell the world about it, and although this method was a little dirty, it was very fast, and it could put pressure on Princess Zhaoran, as long as we did it secretly...... It won't be discovered......" Xi'er rolled her eyes and offered advice.
Ruan Di'er hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, this matter will be handled by you, you must handle it safely, don't let people find out." ”
Xi'er seemed to be happy, obeyed herself, and said, "Yes, the slave will do it." ”
With that, he retreated. On the house, a figure jumped away and quietly followed behind Xi'er.
Xi'er walked back to her room, picked up the pen and began to write the manuscript to be handed over to the storyteller, the people in the room secretly glanced at it, took out the sharpened charcoal and paper from their bosoms, and began to write by themselves, and the more she wrote, the more she rose, and it was out of control......
I don't know how long it took, the door creaked open, and the people in the house looked down and found that Xi'er had changed into men's clothes and came out wearing a hat, so they put away their pens and got up, and followed behind Xi'er in addition to the back door of the Qi Wangfu, and went around a few alleys...... Seeing that there was no one in the alley, Xi'er walked to a corner, gently took out a brick, twisted the mechanism hidden behind the brick three times, and there was a small hole, she put down the paper in her arms, and then closed the hole, carefully determined that there was still no one in the alley, and left with peace of mind......
After she left, the man jumped down, twisted the switch like Xi'er, took out the paper inside and looked at it carefully, frowned, folded the paper in his arms and put it in, put the paper written by Xi'er into his arms, carefully turned off the mechanism, and then flashed away......
