With five thousand taels of silver tickets in her arms, Mrs. Ru got into the carriage and came to Meng Shuilan's inn. The maid Sixi got out of the carriage, found the shopkeeper, and whispered: "My wife wants to see the master of Baichuan Pavilion." ”

The shopkeeper looked puzzled and asked, "What pavilion master?" ”

Sixi frowned and said, "Don't pretend to be stupid!" My wife is the wife of the second prince. ”

The shopkeeper immediately clenched his fists: "Hey, what kind of pavilion master is Madam looking for here, but I really don't know the little one." His eyes fluttered, and he looked at the shopkeeper.

Dian Xiaoer understood, and ran to find Meng Shuilan with a smoke.

The maid was anxious, and glared: "Okay, you shopkeeper!" Let me tell you, if you delay my wife's big business, you won't be able to eat and go around! ”

The shopkeeper accompanied the smiling face and said, "How dare you?" Don't dare, don't dare Absolutely not. The key is ...... Hey, if you wait, let the shopkeeper ask one by one. ”

Seeing that the shopkeeper was like this, Sixi was not sure whether Meng Shuilan was living here or not, so he could only wait stupidly.

The shopkeeper has a good attitude and talks carefully with him, but Sixi is still very irritable. She was afraid that she would not do well in her errand and would be punished by Mrs. Ru. The Annunciation is because she can't speak, and if she doesn't like it, I'm afraid she won't have good fruit to eat.

Mrs. Ru waited for a long time, but she didn't see Sixi come back to report the news, so she was anxious, so she immediately put on a curtain fence and got out of the carriage. Before he entered the inn, he saw Meng Shuilan coming.

Meng Shuilan's facial features are handsome, and her long chestnut hair seems to be stained with three points of exoticism. He was dressed in a grass-green robe with delicate totems embroidered with silver thread. There is an emerald jade belt around the waist, full of water. He had the coquettish air of a literati and ink artist in every move, so he hid it from him, showing only a smile that made the woman crazy.

He shook a fan with white jade as his bone, and a hairpin of the same color was inserted on his head, which was in the style of a piece of green bamboo, which was extremely exquisite.

Dressed like this, coupled with the unique temperament and merry eyebrows of that talented man, the surrounding women jumped in their hearts and secretly peeked at him.

Meng Shuilan is not afraid of being looked at, shaking her fan and smiling, it is really an endless hook.

Mrs. Ru had never seen Meng Shuilan like this, and she was stupid for a while, until Meng Shuilan stood still in front of her and asked, "Senior sister, what is the matter?" She came to her senses.

Mrs. Ru smiled like a flower, her voice was sweet, and she said, "Why, can't you come to visit Senior Brother if you have nothing to do?" ”

Meng Shuilan said: "Senior sister is always so elusive, and she really has no power to parry." ”

Mrs. Ru's face changed slightly, fortunately there was a curtain fence in the way, otherwise she was really afraid of being looked at. She pursed her lips and said, "Senior brother...... ”

Meng Shuilan didn't mean to embarrass her, and immediately pointed to the teahouse opposite and said, "Why don't you drink a cup of coarse tea?" ”

Mrs. Ru nodded and responded, "Okay." ”

In the inn, Sixi has been paying attention to Mrs. Ru's movements. When she saw Meng Shuilan's appearance, she forgot to breathe. It wasn't until Mrs. Ru and Meng Shuilan were about to walk to the teahouse with their feet that she suddenly came back to her senses and chased after her with small steps. She secretly looked at Meng Shuilan's side face, and her heart swayed. Originally, she thought that the second prince was the best-looking character, but she didn't expect that the person in front of her seemed to be a romantic and talented, which was unforgettable.

After walking into the teahouse, Meng Shuilan asked for a private room.

Mrs. Ru asked Sixi to guard the door, and she walked into the private room, took down the curtain fence, and sat face to face with Meng Shuilan.

Boiling hot water and small snacks are served and elegantly placed on the table.

Meng Shuilan asked the tea master to step down, lifted the kettle by himself, and slowly brewed the tea.

In the steam, Mrs. Ru looked at Meng Shuilan's face, a little in a trance, until Meng Shuilan put a cup of boiled tea in front of her, she came back to her senses, lifted the teacup, and sniffed the sketch. Putting down the teacup, Mrs. Ru tasted the taste of the tip of her tongue and said, "Senior brother's craftsmanship has improved a lot. It's been a long time since I've had such a good tea with such a long aftertaste. I still remember that when I was studying art in the mountains, my brother was used to being lazy, but he was quite accomplished in eating, drinking, and having fun. Then...... He smiled slightly, shook his head, and changed his painting style, "Senior brother has become a lot." ”

Meng Shuilan took a sip of tea and said, "It's just a matter of going with the flow." ”

Mrs. Ru's eyes flashed, and she asked, "Senior brother has changed a lot when he sees me?" ”

Meng Shuilan hooked her lips and smiled, "Almost." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Ru was extremely disappointed. How can it be the same? Why is the answer so vague? He should remember her original personality and appearance, but he has to say that, what does it mean? Occasionally, when she takes a self-portrait in the mirror, she will feel that the years have not treated her well.

Xu, I'm angry with her.

Mrs. Ru touched it with her hand, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "It's been four years." The senior brother also said that Ru'er hadn't changed, wouldn't he make Ru'er happy? Taiyan looked at Meng Shuilan, and there was a look of resentment in his eyes, "Or did the senior brother forget Ru'er's original appearance?" ”

Meng Shuilan smiled: "Naturally, I haven't forgotten." ”

Mrs. Ru's face was overjoyed.

Meng Shuilan continued: "But I can't really remember it." After all, it's been too long. ”

Mrs. Ru's face turned pale, and her smile froze on her face.

Meng Shuilan turned her head to look out the window, and the corners of her lips hooked. He found that Tang Jiaren's way of saying it was really interesting. The former sentence is rejoicing; The latter sentence is heartbreaking. Is it cruel? If this is all called cruelty, she didn't even say hello at the beginning, and disappeared for four years, what is it called?

Mrs. Ru's eyes turned red, she clenched her handkerchief, and said pitifully: "Senior brother, are you still blaming me?" I...... I was forced to do it too. However, my father's official position is in jeopardy, and the family is at a loss, if it weren't for me...... When I got married, we all had to sleep on the streets! Lowering his eyes, crackling tears, "As a child, how can I bear to let my elderly father and mother suffer like this?" ”

Meng Shuilan felt that the tea in her mouth was a little bitter.

Mrs. Ru raised her eyes to look at Meng Shuilan and said, "Senior brother, I also thought about sending you a message when it is stable, so that you can ...... Forget Ru'er. Can...... But the courtyard of the palace is deep, how can Ru'er go in and out casually? The prince likes the new and hates the old, and Ru'er is walking on thin ice in the house. Now that he can be brought out by the prince, he relies on his father's important position and can still help the prince. As he spoke, tears crackled like beans, wetting the veil.

Four years. Four years without saying goodbye. Meng Shuilan did not look for Mrs. Ru for four years. As the master of Baichuan Pavilion, he wants to find someone, although it is not easy, but it is not difficult. He knew where she was, and he had been to see her. It's just that she doesn't know.

Because of her, he deliberately collected evidence of the second prince's crime and paid attention to the movements of the sixth prince. As a result, Tang Jiaren was stumbled into by mistake.

Meng Shuilan's eyes fell on the curling mist, hiding his story, and he just stayed for a while. Time is a good thing, he thinks. Once, the last thing he could see was the tears of his sister Xiao Ruer. Now, they can turn a blind eye. That's nice.

Mrs. Ru saw Meng Shuilan in deep thought, thinking that he was reminiscing about the past. It can be seen that he is no longer distressed by his tears, and his heart is really awkward. She waited and waited, but she didn't wait for the result she wanted. The sense of loss in her heart almost overwhelmed her.

Once, she had the best relationship with him and was envious of others. Now, separated by a table, it seems to be divided into two worlds.

Once, she was fond of him. But when he met the powerful second prince, he quietly promised that ten cows would not be able to pull it back. The gentle eyes of the second prince, the tenderness and softness of the second prince, the generous hand of the second prince, and the bold kiss of the second prince all made her who dared to understand the taste of love fall into it and could not extricate herself. Moreover, something happened at home, and she asked the second prince again. And so, and so, they got married.

Once, Meng Shuilan was just a stingy poor boy. He loves to wear beautiful clothes, but he cherishes them so much that he is reluctant to fold them a little. Everyone said that Meng Shuilan must be the young master of the Xiaofu family, who would have thought that he was actually the young master of Baichuan Pavilion.

Once...... I used to be unbearable, but I still have to ask the people in front of me.

Mrs. Ru felt uncomfortable in her heart, but she smiled innocently on her face, making herself look like the one she used to be. She said, "Senior brother, what are you thinking?" But think about our past? ”

Meng Shuilan lifted the teapot, added some tea to each other, and said, "Let's talk about it, what are you looking for?" You are now a lady, what is the service of this grasshopper? ”

Mrs. Ru couldn't help frowning and said, "Senior brother, between you and me, there is nothing else to say except this?!" ”

Meng Shuilan said: "You can say it at will." If you go back late, you are not afraid of the king's reproach, so what is there to fear? ”

Mrs. Ru's heart warmed, and she glanced at Meng Shuilan with a little affection, and said secretly: Senior brother is still like this, his mouth is cold and his heart is hot, and he is empathetic.

She looked at the hour, and did not dare to delay any longer. Immediately reached into his sleeve pocket, took out a purse, untied it, took out a silver ticket worth five thousand taels, handed it to Meng Shuilan, and said, "Senior brother, celebrities don't talk in secret, it's the prince who asked Ru'er to buy a message." This is five thousand taels, senior brother put it away. ”

Meng Shuilan raised her eyebrows, glanced at the silver ticket, and said, "It turns out that the person who made an appointment with a certain flower boat is the prince." Why, why didn't he come by himself? ”

Mrs. Ru looked entangled on her face, she was waiting, waiting for Meng Shuilan to pull back that sentence by herself, and no longer pressed her. However, Meng Shuilan just looked at her and waited for an answer.

Mrs. Ru couldn't, so she had to say, "Lord Wang...... Assassinated. ”

Meng Shuilan was shocked. After a pause, he asked, "Is the prince in the way?" ”

Mrs. Ru said in a low voice: "I tell you this, don't spread it, the prince has ordered that no one is allowed to mention this matter." The prince was bitten by a poisonous snake, but fortunately he invited the ram Diao Diao to save his life. The sixth prince was choked by the assassin by the neck, and it was all creation to live. ”

Meng Shuilan asked, "When did it happen?" ”

Mrs. Ru didn't want to continue answering, but she had already said this, and it would be inappropriate to hide it again. Moreover, the second prince has always wanted to recruit Meng Shuilan for several purposes, otherwise he would not have sent her over. Since...... It's your own people, so it doesn't hurt to talk about it. So, she told Meng Shuilan everything she knew.
