Chapter 117: The Reason for Stealing the News
Ruan Cailing was not surprised at all by Gu Jinxi's arrival, Gu Jinxi and Ruan Xuchen have been busy recently, and these two can only meet in the middle of the night, not to mention that Gu Jinxi has other things to do.
The day before yesterday, Ruan Cailing went to Ruyizhai to help the old lady buy some jade bean cakes, and even the old lady and princess said that they hadn't seen Gu Jinxi for a long time.
Her grandson can't go out early and return late at all, the old princess's schedule is very regular, and she has already gone to bed to rest when it is dark, no matter if she falls asleep or not, no one else is allowed to disturb her.
Gu Jinxi returned to Xuanwang's Mansion in the middle of the night, and he would not wake up the old princess.
And after King Xuan and Princess Xuan returned to Beijing, Gu Yu was busy with the emperor's side, and Princess Xuan was still living a plain life.
Ruan Cailing didn't turn back, but Gu Jinxi was sitting beside her, Ruan Cailing sighed, "Are you going back home today?" ”
"No, I didn't have time yet, I just came back from outside and went to tell your eldest brother something, and when I arrived at your Sihua Building, Jiang Chen said that you didn't go back, and you can only be here." Gu Jinxi said lightly.
In the entire Dingguo Mansion, there are not many places where Ruan Cailing can go, and besides, at this time, Ruan Cailing will not leave the mansion, and it must be that he heard something in the ancestral hall, so he came to the attic to meditate.
In the dim night, Gu Jinxi looked at Ruan Cailing's side face.
If she doesn't go out, Ruan Cailing on ordinary days doesn't apply powder, even if Qingrui wants to help Ruan Cailing put on makeup and look at the spirit point, Ruan Cailing is too lazy to toss, but every time she is outside, she is dazzling.
The pale pink lips opened slightly, and Ruan Cailing still sighed, "My father called me over this afternoon." ”
Dingguo Gong?
Gu Jinxi changed her sitting posture and leaned closer, Ruan Cailing turned her head and said to Gu Jinxi with a solemn expression, "Shen Yunyun copied the letter between my father and King Xuan and sent the news out. ”
At this moment, Gu Jinxi was also stunned, and there was a hint of incredulity on his handsome face, "When did it happen?" ”
Ruan Cailing faced Gu Jinxi, "At noon today, my father called me over in the afternoon, and when I talked about this, the people I stayed with Shen Yunyun told me that Shen Yunyun saw a mysterious woman, and the woman couldn't see who it was because she covered her face with a light veil, and even if she could see it clearly, she didn't necessarily know her." ”
The problem is that Shen Yunyun will definitely pass on the news to this person again in the future, but the woman knows that Shen Yunyun is going to marry Cheng Xuan, and she also knows that Shen Yunyun is leaving the Dingguo Mansion, so why does she think that Shen Yunyun can still find out the news of the Dingguo Mansion?
Is that so sure about the defense of the Dingguo Mansion?
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Shen Yunyun was from the Dingguo Mansion, there was really no way to get close to Ruan Qi's study, which was very important to Ruan Qi, and there were always people patrolling around.
Maybe someone found out when Shen Yunyun entered the study today, but because Shen Yunyun was a woman and the adopted daughter of the Dingguo Mansion, she didn't think much about it.
"You know it's Shen Yunyun, so what are you worried about?" Gu Jinxi asked.
"I don't need to know who it is, I just want to know what the guy behind the scenes means! She abandoned Xie Qingyuan and chose Shen Yunyun instead, which means that Shen Yunyun has something on her body that she can use, oh yes, Tingfei said, there is a scar on that person's face, do you have an impression? Ruan Cailing asked Gu Jinxi rhetorically.
Speaking of scars, Gu Jinxi really had some clues, he said, "On the face? A long scar? ”
Ruan Cailing probably compared the size of the scar, which was also compared by watching Tingfei just now, Gu Jinxi looked at Ruan Cailing's white little hands from large to small, and finally stopped at a distance, Gu Jinxi had a positive answer in her heart.
"Didn't you ask me at the beginning, did you see Lin Yicheng's concubine at home?" Gu Jinxi asked.
Ruan Cailing nodded.
"Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I saw people with my eyeliner, although it was only a side face, but he told me that the scar was very big and unforgettable, especially for a woman with such a big scar on her face, it would definitely be unforgettable."
So, what does Gu Jinxi mean is that person is Lin Yicheng's concubine who never shows up?
But Tingfei also said that that person will work lightly! And the light work is excellent! Not inferior to you and your big brother! ”
Gu Jinxi nodded, according to the news brought to him by eyeliner, Lin Yicheng's concubine is good at light work, and she is very mysterious, she wears a veil when she goes in and out, and his eyeliner was almost discovered by the woman, which shows that the woman has amazing detection power.
People from the outside world know that Lin Yicheng has such a concubine, whether it is the third prince or the prince of Dingguo, or what's more, there is simply curiosity to find out the truth of this person.
In short, there are countless eyeliners at the door of Lin Yicheng's house, but no one has seen the true face of the woman, not once.
Even when he used the personnel of Tianji Pavilion to investigate, he could only see a side face.
But in this case, the side face is enough.
"That woman heard that she is from the rivers and lakes, but there are many rumors about Lin Yicheng's concubine, who knows which one is true and which one is false? Now that she has learned that she took away the letter between my father and Dingguo Gong, she can also know Lin Yicheng's purpose. Gu Jinxi said.
Ruan Cailing was still holding her legs, her eyes fell on Gu Jinxi's shoulder, and after looking at it for a long time, she shook her head disapprovingly, "No, I think this woman is so smart, she shouldn't just be the woman behind Lin Yicheng, but I think that Lin Yicheng is listening to her orders." ”
If this is the case, then the woman's origin is worth pondering.
"Okay, don't worry about this, it's not early, do you want me to take you back to rest or go back to rest yourself?" Gu Jinxi said to Ruan Cailing with a smile.
Ruan Cailing was stunned when she heard Gu Jinxi say this, and then lowered her head a little embarrassed.
If Gu Jinxi is seen carrying her back to Sihua Building in the middle of the night, Ming'er will definitely spread various versions, and maybe she will say that she is already with Gu Jinxi! She doesn't care, but if her father and mother knew, she would inevitably be beaten.
"I'll go back by myself, you should go back and rest quickly, I think King Xuan must have something to tell you."
The closer Shen Yunyun's marriage is, the better Ruan Cailing's mood will be, especially the days when Gu Jinxi and Ruan Xuchen are by her side, she has a more comfortable life, she was sick some time ago, and she has been completely better in the past two days.
On the day before the wedding, Ruan Xuchen finally finished the shop and made time to drink tea with Ruan Cailing in Sihualou.
Ruan Cailing is playing the piccolo.
This flute Ruan Cailing really likes not to say, she carries it with her every day, and because it is a piccolo, it is easy to carry, she used to paint when she was bored, and now she takes out the flute to play the flute when she is bored, and she also asked Wen Ya to help her write a tune.
I've been practicing this piece lately.
"Miss Shizi Ye is not good, it is not good!" The two maids stumbled in and knelt down in front of the brother and sister with a plop.
Ruan Cailing was so frightened that her voice was blown out, Ruan Xuchen put down the book and frowned and asked, "What's the alarm?" ”
One of the maids was from Shanyun Pavilion, and Ruan Cailing knew as soon as she saw this person that something must have happened to Shen Yunyun.
The maid trembled and pointed in the direction of Shanyun Pavilion and said, "Miss Biao...... Miss Cousin committed suicide! ”
"What!" Ruan Cailing and Ruan Xuchen stood up at the same time.
The brother and sister glanced at each other, Ruan Cailing pinned the flute back to her waist and walked towards Shanyun Pavilion.
Tomorrow is the day when the family comes to marry Shen Yunyun, during this time Shen Yunyun has always been very peaceful, except for the day when she stole the letter, she went out, and the rest of the time she stayed in the Shanyun Pavilion, and even dined alone in the room, and she didn't come out at all.
Ruan Sushi also mentioned this matter this morning, saying that Shen Yunyun was depressed before marriage, how could she get it if she got married.
Although Ruan Sushi also knew that Shen Yunyun was a serious person, and wanted to frame Ruan Cailing at that time, after all, she was also a girl with so many people around her, and Ruan Su's was still distressed.
Ruan Cailing also said against her will, Shen Yunyun's personality is good, and she will definitely be likable after marrying, Ruan Su's family was a little relieved when she heard Ruan Cailing say this, but she didn't know what kind of life Shen Yunyun would face after marrying.
"Is my mother in the house?" Ruan Xuchen asked Ruan Cailing.
Ruan Cailing shook her head, she went to Xuanwang's Mansion early in the morning to find Princess Gu Qu, it seems that she secretly went to the princess with her father's letter, chatting with the princess is fake, and the news is true.
Ruan Qi was still in the palace at this time, so there were no elders at all, and Ruan Cailing breathed a sigh of relief.
The wood has been completed, and at this point, if it is because of Shen Yunyun's unilateral trouble, it would not be good if Ruan Su's family relented and canceled the wedding, Ruan Cailing was sure that Shen Yunyun had grasped the point that Ruan Su's family would be soft-hearted, so she dared to commit suicide.
But I didn't expect that because of her stealing letters, Ruan Sushi was not there.
There must be cause and effect, and this is also Shen Yunyun's own trouble, and it has nothing to do with others.
When they arrived downstairs in Shanyun Pavilion, many people were standing, Tingfei hurriedly arrived with Meng Tianlong, Ruan Cailing glanced at Meng Tianlong, and said in a solemn tone, "No matter what, you have to ensure that you are alive, tomorrow is the wedding, but something can't go wrong." ”
Meng Tianlong nodded, "Yes, I know." ”
After Meng Tianlong entered, Ruan Cailing and Ruan Xuchen glanced upstairs, Ruan Cailing threw off her robe and sat down, slammed the table and asked loudly, "How do you all serve Miss Biao!" Don't all of them have eyes? ”
The maids and guards knelt down one after another, and one of them said, "It was Miss Biao who didn't let us serve by her side, and sent us out to do errands, and when we came back, Miss Cousin was like this!" Miss, the prince spares his life! ”
Some time ago, Ruan Cailing resolutely solved the chef's matter, but it still left a shadow in the hearts of the people in the house.
