Chapter 119: Light thoughts, smoke and rain talk
The old lady looked at the departing prince, and then looked at the direction of Qiongzhu Courtyard, sighed and returned to the Summer Palace, some things even if she had the strength to do, but there was no good chess piece, except for sighing, she had no other way, seeing the four rooms and the big room getting closer and closer, watching the four rooms gradually rise, her heart is complicated, after all, he is his own son, he is good, she will also feel relieved, but this relief and the obsession in her heart is much lighter.
"You go to Qiongzhu Courtyard, move all Long'er's things, and from now on, the old body will teach her!"
"Yes!" Mama Gu turned around and left.
Qingluo helped the old lady to sit on the warm couch, bowed her head and didn't say a word, she had been in close contact with Qing'an recently, and she didn't carry anyone on her back, which had caused the old lady's dissatisfaction, so she was extra cautious at this time.
"You've been following the old man for a few years, haven't you?"
"It's been five years, old lady."
"It's been five years, and the little girl has grown up and has her own mind."
"Old ladyβ" Qingluo quickly knelt down, kowtowed uneasily, and pressed his white forehead against the ground, never raising it again.
"You don't have to be like this, even if you have already decided that it is not easy to say anything about the old body, but you have to remember who bought you from the traffickers five years ago, and who gave you food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and taught you to read and write."
"The kindness of the old lady, the slave will not dare to forget!"
"Well, you have to remember what you said today! After a while, the third lady came, and you followed her, and you had to report every move, understand? β
"Slave understands!"
"Let's go down!"
"Yes!" Qingluo got up silently, took two steps back, turned to leave, and the moment she walked outside, she looked up at the sun in the sky, it was so warm, but she felt unusually cold.
The third lady is notoriously difficult to wait in the house, treating her subordinates either beating or scolding, and her eyes are above the top, as far as she is concerned, in this house, except for her, she is not on the stage, just like the old lady is just using the relationship, just like her mother, she can also be used as a punching bag at will; In the past, when Miss Six was still a fat girl, her daily fun was to tease Miss Six, but who would have thought that after falling into the water once, the fat girl became a beautiful girl, and her wisdom and wisdom are rare in the world, such a person, she is naturally not an opponent, and this mood is not much better, three days ago, another newly bought little girl in her house was killed, and the reason was just that she broke a tea bowl by mistake, or a tea bowl used by the next person, which shows how cruel she is.
"Yihan, let Jasmine go to the sky and ask, have the things prepared by Yun Fei ready, if not, how many days will it take?" Qingyan entered the Bishui Pavilion, picked up the tea cup on the table and took a big sip, Fang said.
"Yes! The slave maid will go here, Yi Xuan, bring the snacks prepared for the young lady, she must be hungry at this hour! After Han finished his order, he bowed, turned around and walked out.
"I've seen the master!" But he didn't want to, as soon as he walked outside the house, he greeted the young Changgui who came over, saluted respectfully and left.
"I've seen my father!"
"Yan'er, you shouldn't have been so reckless to reprimand your third sister just now, how can you say that there are still your grandfather and grandmother in front of the prince, and no matter how bad it is, there is still a father and your mother!"
"What the father said is that the daughter remembered."
"Alas! You are a wise man, and there are some things that your father understands even if you don't say them, and sometimes they are even more thoughtful than your father's, but after all, they are still a little worse, and you must always remember that you must be extremely cautious in the face of the royal family, otherwise the slightest mistake will be a capital offense. Qing Changgui saw that she seemed perfunctory, and taught earnestly.
Qingyan was silent, secretly thinking about the past, and suddenly found that maybe it was because of the relationship of rebirth, or maybe because she had lived on the earth for too long, so that the royal family was not much noble and terrifying for her, but today after listening to her father's teachings, she suddenly realized that this is a world where imperial power is supreme, the emperor is the master here, he can decide the life and death of everyone, and the people of the royal family are like his reverse scales, whether it is the crown prince, or the fourth prince, or the princess, if you touch it, you will die.
"Father, don't worry, Yan'er understands!"
"It's good to understand, I know that you have an old relationship with the prince, and you don't seem to have broken off contact over the years, but you are a girl after all, and now you are ten years old, and when discussing with you, you must not be alone."
"Yes! My daughter knows! β
"Good! Rest! Qing Changgui said and got up to leave, Qing Yan stood at the door and looked at his back, and suddenly found that he was only thirty-three years old, if this was on earth, thirty years old should be the right age for a man, right?
"Junjun! The prince has passed the news, see you in the smoke and rain tonight! "Ling Shan fell from the sky.
"I see! You still go back to the eldest sister, and now that the prince is here, no one dares to guarantee that those people will not take risks. β
"But?"
"Don't worry, it's not that easy to want my life. You remember, your current task is to protect the safety of your big sister, and you must not leave an inch, no matter what happens, you must put her life first. β
"Junjun, my subordinates don't understand."
"You'll understand later, go ahead!" She turned back to her room, leaned on the couch, closed her eyes. Ling Shan couldn't, so she had to go to Xinglin, but before leaving, she sent a flying pigeon to Yanyou Academy.
"Miss, Jasmine is back!"
As soon as Qingyan opened her eyes, Yi Han washed a handkerchief, handed it to her, and whispered.
"What time is it?"
"It's already time to apply."
"Shen Shi? Go and call Jasmine. She was stunned and hurriedly wiped her face.
"Miss Hui, Dr. Yun said that everything you asked her to prepare is ready, and she can go and pick it up at any time." Jasmine walked in quickly.
"Good! You tell him to get everything ready, to pick it up tomorrow at the earliest, and to pick it up the day after tomorrow at the latest, and then tell him that you will arrange for him to go out in the near future, so that he can be mentally prepared. β
"Yes!"
"Miss, it's only March, isn't it a little early?" Yi Han looked at Jasmine's departing back and said leisurely.
"It's better to take precautions for a major matter of human life!"
"Miss's heart is inevitably too kind, you have to reach out for something so far away." Yi Han looked at her distressedly, the tonic had been eating, but not only did she not gain much weight, but she became thinner.
"Your young lady is not as good as you say. Let's go! I went to dinner with my mother. The two walked out of the Blue Water Pavilion and went straight to Changyue Garden.
When the child was in the building, the smoke and rain building
Wang Tai'an stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the back garden of the Hou Mansion, the bamboo forest, the four seasons forest garden, the lotus pond looming in the distance, and the hundred gardens that had just sprouted, there were beautiful scenery everywhere, which showed that the Hou Mansion spent a lot of thought when it was built.
"The courtiers have seen the prince." Qingyan came on time with Han, looking at Wang Tai'an standing in the smoke and rain building, wearing a purple cloud four-clawed dragon robe, sleeping dragon eyebrows, sleeping phoenix eyes, and sharp facial features.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, but you're getting more and more marked." He smiled and held out his hand to her.
"The prince is also impressive!" She was surprised, but still smiled, and put her hand in his palm.
"Oh? Let's talk about it! He led her into the Yanyu Building, sent her to sit down, and then let go of the seat at the top.
"Although the courtiers are not in the capital, they have also heard about the affairs of the prince's mansion, and they are much more decisive than at first acquaintance; And this big sister incident shows that you are not a pedantic person; Now in order to meet the courtiers alone, you have arranged personal guards around this Yanyu Building, which shows that you are thoughtful, not only to prevent villains, but also to put an end to the embarrassing situation of lonely men and widows; Shicai took the courtiers in and sat down with great courtesy, and every move was above board. β
"Hahaββ, I haven't seen you for a few years, but your little girl's ability to pat on the back has grown a lot!"
"The prince is really good at laughing, and the courtiers are just telling the truth." She covered her mouth and smiled, unusually bright and charming.
"Do you have any doubts about this incident?" He gradually retracted his smile, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he could still clearly feel the sharpness and ruthlessness of his gaze in the dark night.
"Yes!"
"Oh? Let's hear it. β
"Actually, you know that, too, don't you? How many people want the position of Crown Princess? And she's just one step away; It's just that what the courtiers don't understand is whether that person is also involved? β
Wang Tai'an pondered, if they really joined forces, then this matter would not be so simple, and it would probably take a long time to solve it: "This palace wants to restore Yue'er's reputation, what good way do you have?" β
"Look, Prince, the moon in the night sky is round every fifteenth, but sometimes, the clouds are so thick that no one in the world can see it, but who can say that the moon is no longer round and no longer bright?" She turned her head to look at the crescent moon in the night sky and whispered.
He was silent again, following her line of sight to look at the moon in the night sky, which was a crescent moon, full of hazy beauty: "Bengong understands, you reassure her, Bengong will always believe her." β
"Has the prince ever thought of sending someone to protect the eldest sister?"
"Naturally, there is a plan, this time Leng Yu will be left behind, even after the wedding, his duty is to protect the crown princess."
"So much for the best! Has the prince ever thought about going to Guangling? β
"Guangling? Is there anything going on there? He was amazed that the area around Guangling was extremely rich, and farming was harvested twice a year, which could be said to be one of the main sources of the Celestial Empire's treasury.
"The courtiers remember that the Guangling area is mostly mountainous, and there is only a wide Guangling River, which is the source of drinking water for the locals, in the past, there will be large or small floods there during the rainy season in June and July every year, until ten years ago, the imperial court funded the establishment of the Linghan Dam in the middle and upper reaches of the Guangling River, which has a peaceful future, and the courtiers are right?"
"Not bad!"
"I wonder if someone can be sent to survey every year?"
"Naturally, there are, people are sent there in March every year, and this year's surveyors have already set off."
"The courtier's advice to you, it's best to go in person, once something happens, you will be the first to know." She got up and stood on the edge of the Yanyu Building, looking in the direction of Guangling.
Wang Tai'an was puzzled, and looked at her silently for a moment, as if he wanted to see through her true thoughts, but in his mind, he remembered her secret support and help over the past few years, and the hesitation in his heart suddenly disappeared: "Okay! The main palace went to it in person. β
"In that case, the courtiers will let Yun Fei go with you."
"Cloudy? Is it the doctor who saved the palace guards before? β
"Yes! He has excellent medical skills, and with him, this trip will be worry-free. β
"Looks like you've got it all figured out." He smiled and looked over, always feeling that this little person was extremely mysterious, there were many things that she hinted at in advance, and it was because of him that he escaped poisoning and assassination again and again, although she always had a reasonable explanation, but for some reason he just felt that she seemed to have the ability to predict the future.
