Chapter 242. Uninvited
At this moment, the Bamboo Incense Pavilion has already become the focus of the whole city, right? Chu Yunfei had a wry smile in his heart, he was as arrogant as the Lord of Lingshuang, and he actually took the initiative to visit Mei Yingxue, which was greatly unexpected by him! There are many people in Su Mansion who love to watch the excitement, and they appear here under unreliable excuses, just to see the excitement with their own eyes.
Ling Shuang completely lost her domineering appearance, and was very humble to Mei Yingxue, and could even be said to be very enthusiastic. Chu Yunfei was secretly funny, was she deliberately embarrassing herself? Coming to visit Mei Yingxue is just an excuse, right? What about the real purpose? Or do you mean that the Mei and Chai families already have a deep friendship? Why haven't you heard Mei Yingxue mention it before?
The banquet is a good banquet, the wine is a good wine, the wine of the capital's "ten miles of incense", and those delicious delicacies are the imperial kitchen brought by the lord of Lingshuang from Bianliang, and the food made is naturally delicious in the world. Looking at Mei Yingxue, he knew that he couldn't help the county lord to be so enthusiastic. However, the county lord of Lingshuang completely dominated the scene, Mei Yingxue couldn't intervene at all, and Chu Yunfei didn't have a chance to speak.
This scene suddenly reminded Chu Yunfei of Luo Qingqing, although she likes Sunan very much and especially hopes to attract Sunan's attention, but as long as Sunan appears, she is more reserved. In contrast, Ling Shuang is very different. This also made him want to know, what was Ling Shuang's purpose? Is it just to entertain Mei Yingxue?
"Good wine! Sure enough, it's good wine! Chu Yunfei poured himself a full glass of wine and shouted exaggeratedly.
Ling Shuang glanced at him, and said helplessly: "Of course it's good wine." This is a good wine sent from Bianliang. Since Gongzi Chu is a lover of wine, then this wine will be given to you. Can you ......?"
"The county lord is really generous, and Mei Gongzi's face is really big!" How could Chu Yunfei let go of this great opportunity, he took a closer look at Ling Shuang, and continued: "The county lord is pampered, and the fat powder he uses and the clothes he wears are all sent from the capital, right?" ”
Ling Shuang was stunned by these words, and before she could speak, the servant woman who had been following her closely whispered something in her ear. Ling Shuang's hand raised and said towards Chu Yunfei, "You're right, but there are some things that I made with my own hands. If you seem to have something to say, you might as well say it generously. You know I've always hated beating around the bush. ”
Is it true that only master duels remain? Chu Yunfei couldn't help but smile bitterly, he didn't answer, but turned his gaze to the older servant woman and said, "I heard that the county lord has a maid who is like a mother and daughter, I think it's you, right?" Your surname is Pan? ”
These words surprised both Ling Shuang and the servant woman. Without waiting for her to reply, Ling Shuang snorted coldly from her nose: "You have already figured out the details of our palace, have you?" Since you are prepared, you might as well say something directly, right? Aunt Pan watched me grow up since I was a child, and no one dared to disrespect her. It's up to you to ......"
"The county lord is too worried. Presumably Chu Gongzi heard some gossip, so he might as well ask a few words. Pan Shi said humbly, her voice was not loud, but Ling Shuang stopped in an instant. Her gaze was a little uncertain, her gaze swept over Chu Yunfei's face twice, and she lowered her eyebrows and said: "If the son has anything to say, please say it directly, the old slave is old, and there will always be negligence, I don't know if I offended the child." ”
"Nothing." As soon as Pan spoke, Chu Yunfei realized that he had met a very calm person, although she was very respectful, she was neither humble nor arrogant, so that Chu Yunfei couldn't find anything wrong at all, but it was not easy to ask in front of everyone, "It's just that there are some questions I want to ask you." ”
Ling Shuang glared at Chu Yunfei coldly, she seemed to want to say something, but Pan Shi put his hand on her shoulder and patted it gently, and she quickly quieted down.
This is a smart woman who knows how to be in proportion and knows how to advance and retreat! Chu Yunfei never expected that the Pan family would be the next to control everything, she instructed the purple-clothed maid to serve Ling Shuang and Mei Yingxue, and then followed Chu Yunfei to the courtyard generously. Without waiting for Chu Yunfei to speak, she lowered her head and said softly: "Young Master Chu heard something from others, so he asked this question, right?" The county lord's temperament is indeed a little pampered, but he won't take the initiative to cause any trouble. If someone is deliberately unable to get along with the county lord, this is understandable. After all, our Chai family has a grudge with many people. ”
These words came out, so that Chu Yunfei didn't know how to speak. He smiled awkwardly, "It's nothing, since we arrived in Luoyang, it seems that we haven't been calm, but now we have found some clues." Right now, I want to use the power of my wife to find out how many secrets there are in this Luoyang City that are not known to outsiders? ”
"Childe really doesn't dare to call a servant like this." Pan arched his body a little apprehensively, "As long as the son commands, the servant will no longer have a reason to disobey his orders." Is Childe's so-called incident related to Miss Hu's disappearance? Please make it clear to the childe ......"
Is the woman in front of you too straightforward, or too smart? Chu Yunfei couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, a smart woman is even more difficult to deal with, not to mention a wise and foolish woman. He nodded sincerely, and instantly decided to test her attitude: "You and your county lord have also been in Luoyang for a while, and you should have seen some of the big and small people in the city. What do you think would be so interested in relics? ”
"Relic?" Pan's brows furrowed, she hesitated for a moment before shaking her head and said, "It's really hard to say about this matter." In fact, slaves and maids have heard about relics for a long time, from the kings and nobles to the peddlers and pawns, how can they not covet it? To say that if you are not afraid of the child's laughter, the relics are indeed a supreme treasure for those who sincerely worship the Buddha, but if someone wants to use it to realize impossible wishes, it will really make people laugh off their big teeth. Then again, it is precisely because of the rarity of relics that so many people want to fight for their hands when they break their heads. In this Luoyang City, I am afraid that more than half of the people want it. If Childe asks who is the most suspicious, the slave is really not easy to say. ”
The words are vague, but they make people completely infallible, worthy of being a concubine from the palace. Chu Yunfei sighed secretly, like her, who went from a concubine to the county lord's personal maid, the identity and status that women value the most are probably floating clouds for her, which has completely proved that she is a person with great wisdom. She and the county lord are nominally master and servant, and it can be seen that the two have a deep relationship. Such a sleek person, there would definitely be nothing to say from her mouth, and Chu Yunfei had to stop his temptation.
