Chapter Ninety-Five: Begging for Fights
The bead curtain moved slightly, and the old lady looked up and saw Wei Ruyi who walked in: "Why are you here too?" ”
"I miss you." Wei Ruyi came in at the right time, and Lou Yan just didn't reply to the old lady's words.
She walked up to the old lady, personally brought the medicine bowl, and said with a smile: "You just accepted Ruyi as your granddaughter, why didn't you see Ruyi?" When the emperor turned around, he was angry, so he took back the princess title, but Ruyi liked this title very much. ”
The old lady laughed out loud: "Greedy ghost. ”
"People die for money, birds die for food, and if you want to make money, you want to be famous." Wei Ruyi is also frank.
The old lady liked that she didn't hide it, and only smiled and talked to her for a while, so that Wei Ruyi felt tired and rested after taking the pulse.
When she came out, Wei Ruyi was smiling all the time, but after she came out, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
In the end, it was suffocated on the mountain before, and although the old lady is raising it now, but this foundation is broken, and she can't raise it back.
"Birth, old age, sickness and death are common things for people."
Lou Yan said lightly, and took out his handkerchief and gave it to her.
Wei Ruyi took it, wiped away his tears, and then looked at him with red eyes: "I won't let you die!" ”
"Live as an old monster?" Lou Yan asked her rhetorically.
Wei Ruyi knew that he understood what he meant, and pursed his lips and ignored him. She must save him, Jiang Yan said that the spirit rhino is still two fairy spirit fruits, and she has another one there, and the two small ones that were sent out at the beginning were used by the eldest aunt, and they will not grow again until next spring, but she will definitely grow them!
The old lady watched her leave, sighed softly, and returned to the house, where she found the old lady thinking about something with her eyes open.
"The ...... of the Princess"
"Bring the pen and ink that you prepared before." The old lady said tiredly, she felt that her body was getting worse and worse, and she also knew that Ruyi had deliberately interrupted her. She didn't understand these hatreds and hatreds, she only knew that the sons of the first emperor almost died in that bloody storm, and she didn't want such a tragedy to happen again.
The old lady took the pen and ink and personally helped the old lady to sit up, but before the old lady sat up, she fell down with a pale face.
The old lady was in a hurry and was busy calling someone, but the old lady only took her hand and said, "No, I'm fine." ”
"But the concubine ......"
"I know my own body, Ruyi they are here today, I can't have an accident, otherwise those people in the shadows don't know how to slander her." After the old lady finished speaking, she had no strength, and lay on the bed and fell asleep like this.
The old lady was anxious, but she could only follow her orders, and she didn't make any movement.
However, those who are looking at it can still find clues, such as the courtyard that has now arrived at the door.
"The next official came to ask the concubine for a pulse."
"The concubine is resting, Lord Yuanzheng, come back later." The old lady calmed her voice.
The courtyard raised his eyes and looked inside, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and after he got down, he went around to the back room.
Just came, Wukang walked out a little shyly: "Why did the adults come in the daytime." ”
"The old lady is dying, do you know what to do?" Yuan Zheng asked her coldly, if it weren't for this woman thinking of a man going crazy, he wouldn't be doing anything to her at his age, and now looking at her pretentious appearance, he really couldn't be interested.
Wukang didn't see his disgust, and only nodded: "Don't worry, Miss Wei still has the pill I gave me before, as soon as the old lady leaves, I will identify it because she gave the old lady indiscriminately." ”
Yuan Zheng smiled a little, took out a pair of earrings inlaid with emeralds from his sleeve and gave it to her, and said: "It is the prince who rewarded you, you do things for the prince, and when the matter is completed, you want as much as you want." ”
Wukang looked at this precious earring, and couldn't put it down and looked at it over and over again in the palm of his hand, and was happy: "Don't worry, I will never make a mistake." ”
Seeing her like this, the courtyard smiled sarcastically, and then turned around and left.
As soon as he left, Wukang couldn't wait to go back and try on the pair of earrings, but he didn't find that Mu Ying, who had been missing, had already gone around to Wuhui's room next to her.
The room here was just a wall away, and she could hear what was being said clearly.
In the afternoon, in order to avoid too much contact with King Ping, Wei Ruyi only took Lianxin and a few people to Laifulou.
Laifu Building opened today, because the Xu family came to cheer, but there were a lot of sons and brothers, and the shopkeeper Shen sent invitations to those literati and scholars in the capital early in the morning, so there were also people who came in twos and threes.
The big guy didn't take this little-known restaurant in his eyes, but after he came, he turned into a burst of exclamation.
The wisteria in the backyard has been wrapped around the wooden shelf and climbed up, although it is not high, but Wei Ruyi spent a lot of money to transport the already grown ones, wrapped on the wooden shelf, which can not only shade the heat, but also have a charm, not to mention the small scenery of flowing water that can be seen everywhere here, so that the entire back hall is cool.
The literati were especially fond of it, and some of them proposed to write poems, and the shopkeeper Shen presented the best pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the spot, and for a while, those sons also followed the vassal elegance.
When Wei Ruyi came, he went directly to the private room specially prepared for women.
Lianxin looked curiously all the way, and when she arrived in the elegantly furnished room, she asked Wei Ruyi: "This is all Sister Wei's idea?" ”
"Sort of." Wei Ruyi sat down, and the shopkeeper Shen personally brought the tea.
"Outside, Lord Xu is talking to the guests?" Wei Ruyi looked through the pane, and a personable man was standing in the crowd, talking happily to people, and everyone seemed to sell his face.
Shopkeeper Shen nodded: "It's Lord Xu." ”
Wei Ruyi nodded with satisfaction: "All today's revenue will be sent to Xu Mansion." ”
Shopkeeper Shen sighed again about her generosity, and responded with a smile: "The little one understands." Uncle Fang said that he had made two new dishes and wanted you to try them. ”
"Please Lord Xu try it, in the future, this place belongs to Lord Xu, not mine, understand?" Wei Ruyi said. She is in trouble now, if this Laifulou is hers, she will have to be calculated, rather than this, it is better to give this title to the Xu family. It's just 20% of the profit, and what she wants to earn is not these small money.
Shopkeeper Shen immediately responded, and after he went out, Wei Ruyi comfortably leaned on a special stool to drink tea.
Chen Yansleeve also smiled: "You still have these dexterous thoughts." ”
Hu Qingwei admired it even more, a few people were saying this, and there was a bustle outside, and they could hear a call.
"Why is Little Jiang Gongzi free today?"
Hu Qingwei choked in her throat, and Lianxin hurriedly took tea to her.
Wei Ruyi looked over and saw a man dressed in brocade and a graceful face walking in, holding a folding fan in his hand, and talking to those literati with a smile.
"The appearance is not bad, and the family background is also good, Sister Hu, have you decided on your family affairs?" Wei Ruyi asked her.
"I ......" Hu Qingwei was easy to get through before she looked at her and said, "Not yet." ”
"Why haven't you yet?" Wei Ruyi was puzzled, Imperial Doctor Hu must have agreed, could it be that the Jiang family did not agree?
Hu Qingwei's face was slightly red, and he said with a smile: "Many young ladies are interested in marrying into the Jiang family, but the Jiang family can't make up their minds for a while, so they haven't decided yet." ”
"Who's else?"
"Miss and ...... of the Dianyi family" Hu Qingwei looked at her embarrassedly: "Miss and the Sun family." ”
Wei Ruyi didn't expect that there would be Sun Juan'er, Sun Juan'er like that, how could the Jiang family be able to see it, and the Jiang family doesn't like to chase fame and fortune, the Dianyi family is innocent, it is possible, but when I saw the young lady of the Dianyi family before, she was mean and arrogant, and the Jiang family definitely couldn't look down on it.
She smiled, "Don't worry, it's definitely yours." ”
Hu Qing's face blushed slightly, and when he heard a commotion outside, Chen Yansleeve beckoned to Wei Ruyi: "What about the poem, the poem of the little Jiang Gongzi was matched by the lady of the ceremony." ”
Wei Ruyi hurriedly looked over, and the four eyes outside were relatively affectionate, wasn't it the Miss Dianyi she was most unoptimistic about?
"How can this work......
She was about to rush out in a hurry, but was stopped by Hu Qingwei.
Hu Qingwei was a little embarrassed: "Forget it, Ruyi, it doesn't have to be him." ”
Wei Ruyi saw her like this, and had to sit down. Also, Hu Qingwei's family has no support, and his reputation must not be ruined.
At this thought, the atmosphere in the room faded. It's still very lively outside, and the lady of the ceremonial family is indeed a talented person, and a few lines of poetry are right.
"By the way, why don't we play chess." Hu Qing said busily.
Everyone was a little distressed when they saw her holding on, after all, the relationship between the Jiang family and the Hu family should have been decided a long time ago, if it weren't for the ceremonial family who intervened horizontally......
Hu Qingwei held back the wetness in his eyes and smiled lightly: "It doesn't matter, there is no Jiang family, there is also the Liu family, the Wang family, the Xu family, there are many people." After saying that, she got up and said, "You wait, I'll go and ask the shopkeeper for the chessboard." With that, he walked out quickly.
Lianxin was still worried and wanted to catch up, but Wei Ruyi only stopped her: "Let her stay alone for a while." ”
After speaking, he changed the topic to Lianxin and asked her with a smile: "You have been in good health recently, you should move more." ”
"Uncle Rong said the same thing, and he specially gave me this, saying that he was protecting me." Lianxin smiled very happily, and took out a small jar from her sleeve like a baby and gave it to Wei Ruyi: "Sister, take a look." ”
Wei Ruyi took it defenselessly, but before the small jar reached her hand, it moved violently.
She was busy putting it on the side, and suddenly a black insect came out of it, the size of a thumb, and the whole body was black and sticky, and before Wei Ruyi could react, it broke through Wei Ruyi's skin and drilled into her arm.
She herself was frightened, but fortunately, Chen Yansleeve reacted quickly enough, immediately grabbed her arm and lifted her sleeve, and the dagger easily slashed the place where the black insect crawled and picked out the black worm and trampled it to death.
"What is this?" Lianxin's face turned pale.
Chen Yansleeve only had a dark face and said, "Fusang's things." ”
"Fuso?" Lianxin looked at Wei Ruyi: "Sister Wei, I'm sorry, I didn't know this was ......"
"It's fine." Wei Ruyi was so frightened that she was scared, and hurriedly asked Yahuan to help her go to the cubicle to rest, and then found gauze to wrap the wound. This thing was mentioned by my aunt in my previous life, it was fed with poison by the Fusang poison family, and it was specially used to control people's hearts, but this thing is extremely expensive, and even the rising star Shamu may not have it, where did King Rong come from?
Since he has so much Fusang poison, does the poisoning of the eldest aunt have anything to do with him?
She was full of puzzlement, and saw Hu Qingwei's maid ring running back in a panic, with a red slap print on her face.
"Miss Wei, Miss She was detained by Princess Rui, go and take a look......"
Xiao Yahuan was crying and trembling, Wei Ruyi heard Princess Rui, and remembered that Fang Qiaoqiao had indeed married into King Rui's Mansion recently, and thought that there would be no intersection, why did she come here again?
After she bandaged the wound, she immediately came out with Chen Yansleeve, and when she came, she saw Hu Qingwei kneeling on the ground, her hair was all wet with tea, and the tea was sticking to her face.
She also seemed frightened, pursing her pale lips tightly, her eyes straight.
"Sister Hu!" Wei Ruyi rushed over, everyone hurriedly saluted, Wei Ruyi only glanced at the people around him, except for the young lady of the ceremonial family, Sun Wan'er and Concubine Meng were also there, Yu Rouyi was standing behind Concubine Meng and Fang Qiaoqiao, and when she looked at Wei Ruyi, she only smiled coldly.
Wei Ruyi was angry, and raised her eyes to look at Fang Qiaoqiao, who looked indifferent in front of her: "I don't know what Sister Hu did wrong, to be so humiliated by the princess." ”
"Humiliation? It's just to teach a lesson, so that she won't be blind in the future, and it's not good to really bump into the nobles. The lady added.
As soon as these words came out, the little Jiang Gongzi before couldn't help frowning.
She didn't notice it, she only looked at Fang Qiaoqiao flatteringly and said: "Princess, Princess Jinghe's temper is not small, and she is short-sighted, the courtiers look at it, or forget it, save her from conflicting with you." ”
After Fang Qiaoqiao married into King Rui's mansion, her waist straightened a lot, although King Rui was a little perverted in that regard, but she still loved her, so she didn't need to be afraid of Wei Ruyi, after all, no one in the whole capital knew that Wei Xin was driven out and had no luck, and Lou Yan had no power.
"Princess Jinghe knows the rules, and Concubine Ben is now her elder, so she dares to collide?" Fang Qiaoqiao smiled sarcastically, and in front of Wei Ruyi, she instructed Yahuan: "Don't be stunned, keep beating me until she knows her mistake." ”
After speaking, the girl ring raised her hand and beat it down.
Chen Yansleeve grabbed the girl's arm and only asked Hu Qingwei: "Qingwei, what did you do?" ”
"I didn't do anything, I didn't steal the princess's bracelet." Although Hu Qingwei was embarrassed and afraid, he did not have any weakness.
"Didn't take it? Why didn't you take it, so why did it go to you? Before Miss Yu said that your poor family is not self-respecting, I still don't believe it, but now it seems that you are used to stealing, and you actually stole it to the princess. Concubine Meng smiled coldly.
Miss Yu is the daughter of this ceremony, and she also looked at Wei Ruyi provocatively: "I'm also a friend of the princess, the princess is really careless in making friends." ”
"I said I didn't take it, no matter how poor my family is, it's not bad for this bracelet!" Hu Qingwei stiffened his neck and said.
"A bracelet? You don't know how expensive this bracelet is......" Miss Yu looked exaggerated and sarcastically said loudly, but before she finished speaking, the little Jiang Gongzi on the side pointed at her and said, "Miss Yu, why is my jade pendant on you?" ”
"Jade pendant?" Miss Yu looked confused, and saw this little Jiang Gongzi holding her waist, and a piece of jade pendant was taken out.
Everyone immediately discussed, Miss Yu blushed, and hurriedly explained: "I don't know why I ...... it."
Wei Ru said and smiled coldly: "I know, you stole it!" ”
"I don't have ......"
"None? Do you come up with evidence? Wei Ruyi sarcastically mocked her.
When Miss Yu heard this, her face turned red, and she was only anxious to look at Xiao Jiang Gongzi, but Xiao Jiang Gongzi took out a handkerchief and handed it to Hu Qingwei with both hands: "It seems that there is a snitch here, who specializes in this kind of trick to slander people." After speaking, he looked at Fang Qiaoqiao: "Princess Rui must be a smart person, such a clumsy trick not only makes everyone think that you are a mean and dull person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, but also thinks that you are easy to use, and you will come back to send a domineering name to the emperor, and His Royal Highness King Rui will also suffer, do you say yes?" ”
Fang Qiaoqiao was a little embarrassed by what he said, she originally just wanted to be prestigious, but when he said this, she fell behind.
She squeezed out a generous smile: "What Jiang Gongzi said is reasonable, since this is the case, Miss Hu should get up." ”
Yu Rouyi saw Wei Ruyi's slightly cold eyes, and quietly whispered a few words beside Concubine Meng.
After hearing this, Concubine Meng only glanced at her coldly: "Speak away from me in the future, I smell the smell of your body as if I have seen a fox, and my body is full of stench." ”
Yu Rouyi's palms tightened slightly, so she only held back and responded humbly.
Concubine Meng said: "In this case, the princess might as well give the bracelet to Miss Hu, it is also the will of God." ”
Hu Qingwei's face was whiter.
Give it to yourself? Don't you want to confirm her name for stealing?
Wei Ruyi took two steps forward and said with a smile: "I like this bracelet, the princess wants to reward it, it is better to give it to Ruyi." After speaking, he took off a pink bracelet from his wrist and said with a smile: "Ruyi also has one here, which was given to the national teacher by His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness, and the national teacher gave it to me. ”
When Concubine Meng heard that it was Jiang Yan's, her face turned blue.
Chen Yansleeve also saw that he was afraid that Yu Rouyi was making trouble behind her back, and her tone was cold: "She is still in the filial piety period, and she can't wear the bracelet if you give it to her, so it's better to give it to Concubine Meng, Concubine Meng's status is noble and worthy of this bracelet." ”
"The status of a lowly concubine is humble, just like Miss Chen said." Yu Rouyi saw that they came to provoke her and Meng Shi instead, and said busily.
"This ......" Wei Ruyi deliberately asked Concubine Meng: "Since Sister Yu doesn't want it, do you want Concubine Meng?" ”
"She doesn't want it, so I don't want it."
Concubine Meng's face was slightly blue in shame, and she stood on one side with a black face, unable to hold back her emotions at all.
Seeing this, Fang Qiaoqiao only said: "I want as many bracelets as I want, so I don't need you to give them away, since you like my bracelet, take it." ”
"Yes." Wei Ruyi reached out to pick it up, but after receiving it, he only loosened slightly, and the bracelet immediately fell to the ground.
Before the girl who handed the bracelet could react, Wei Ruyi's slap had already landed on her face.
"Dog minion, are you looking down on me?" How humiliated Hu Qingwei just now, she will make it up as it is today!
"Slave ......"
Wei Ruyi turned her head and brought a cup of tea, and before she finished speaking, she poured her head down: "How can a slave like you be worthy of serving by the princess's side?" ”
When Fang Qiaoqiao heard this, he didn't know how to stop Wei Ruyi, so he just said, "Okay, it's just a bracelet......
"What the princess said is not right, a bracelet, you can ask an official lady to kneel down and humiliate, let alone a lowly girl now?" Wei Ruyi asked her rhetorically.
Fang Qiaoqiao's face turned blue, daring to love her that she was not humiliating Yahuan, she was collecting debts from herself.
"Then what do you mean, I have to apologize to Miss Hu?"
"The princess has a noble status, of course she doesn't need to." Wei Ruyi smiled: "Although you are not glorious in marrying the princess, but in the end, it is the princess, how dare Ruyi ask you to apologize." ”
When the words fell, the onlookers couldn't help but laugh.
Fang Qiaoqiao was given a marriage because of King Rui's innocence.
Fang Qiaoqiao is not a person without shame, when she heard this, she was shaken out by the public, she couldn't hold her face, turned her head and glared at Concubine Meng, who instigated her to find trouble, and left.
As soon as she left, Yahuan, who was covering her face and glaring at Wei Ruyi hatefully, also hurriedly followed, but was directly dragged away and sold by Fang Qiaoqiao's order.
Concubine Meng looked at this change, and only smiled at Wei Ruyi: "Why should Princess Jinghe be so stingy, it's just a misunderstanding, but it seems that you are stingy." ”
"I'm just stingy, did the side concubine only know today?" Wei Ruyi asked her funny.
No one in the capital knows her Wei Ruyi's notoriety, and she never beats people softly.
Concubine Meng was stunned, and then saw that everyone was covering their mouths and laughing, and then said, "Okay, it's really frank." ”
"The side concubine is overrated."
"With your temper, it's no wonder that your family doesn't like you, your grandmother hates you so much that she kicks you out of the house, and even your own cousin says you're mean." Concubine Meng sneered, and when Sun Wan'er saw that she had mentioned herself, she hurriedly said, "Grandmother would rather go to live with me than see you now." ”
This is Wei Ruyi's sore spot, she looked at Sun Xuan'er, her eyes were slightly cold, and before she could speak, she heard an indifferent voice outside: "That means that she is old and confused." ”
Sun Wan'er turned her head to look, and saw that Lou Yan, who had never come to such a place, would actually come slowly.
She looked at his cold facial features and the phoenix eyes that hid the cold, and her heart beat faster: "Master Guoshi, you were deceived by her, grandmother she ......"
"If she was kind, she would not have been snubbed by the old marquis for decades. When you talk about her now, you are not only unfilial, but also ruthless to your relatives. ”
"I didn't, Master Guoshi, you can see clearly, she just beat people!"
"I love her being so intense." Lou Yan's eyes swept lightly, and Ah Zhong immediately handed over the handkerchief: "Princess, your hand doesn't hurt." ”
Chen Yan's sleeves and eyebrows were high, and others were even forcibly stuffed with dog food.
Wei Ruyi shook his head, and Lou Yan looked at Lord Xu who was standing behind: "When Lord Xu returns to the house today, he should pass by the Sun Mansion?" ”
Lord Xu understood what he meant, he didn't care about others, but he would definitely give Lou Yan's face: "Xiaguan is about to go back, today's matter, Xiaguan will explain it to Sun Shangshu well." ”
"Hard."
"The national teacher is polite." can get him a word of hard work, I don't know how many benefits I can exchange for in the future, this deal Lord Xu is very clear.
Yu Rouyi quietly approached Concubine Meng, and was about to speak, but Lou Yantou didn't reply, so she said: "His Royal Highness King Zhao has recently been planning to take a break from a few long-tongued women who are telling right and wrong, Concubine Meng should know who it is?" ”
Yu Rouyi's face turned slightly pale, and she pursed her mouth tightly and did not speak.
Lou Yan only glanced at her lightly, and looked at Concubine Meng, who was stared at by him and felt a pinprick pain coming from her back, and her screams were muffled in her throat before she could come out, her eyes rolled and she fainted directly in front of Lou Yan.
