Chapter Eighty-Three: Lingering and Waiting
After leaving the study, Bai Jinghao did not immediately go back to the inner courtyard, but stopped in front of a few red plums in the corner of the courtyard.
After a while, I saw the spring carrying a lantern out of the white bird pavilion.
She walked quickly to her and said, "I've kept Miss waiting." ”
"It doesn't matter." Bai Jinghao stretched out his hand, gently wiped away the frost beads on Mei Rui, and asked softly, "How is the new peach?" ”
"Miss Xintao said that the uncle treats her very well, and often protects her in front of the eldest lady."
Bai Jinghao nodded, and then asked, "Has she recovered?" ”
"The spirit looks good, but it's still a little empty, I think it was that small birth that damaged the vitality."
Bai Jinghao bowed his head again and ordered: "From tomorrow, according to my aunt's regulations, I will add it to her house, and I will pick two little girls and send them together." ”
In the spring, he replied with some worries: "The eldest lady has always been strict about the affairs in the uncle's courtyard. ”
Bai Jing said in a deep voice: "Now I am in charge of the house." ”
When the words fell, she folded the plum branch in front of her lightly, and finally raised her foot.
However, before he walked far, he saw a tall figure standing in the camellia bush not far away.
Chunshi looked at it and exclaimed, "Who is standing there?" He looked left and right, ready to shout for the guards.
"Don't be alarmed."
Bai Jinghao immediately snorted, handed the plum branch to her, took the lantern in his hand, and ordered, "You go to the front and wait for me first." As he spoke, he walked up to the cloak man.
The night wind was cold, blowing the sound of clothes, and when they got closer, they didn't see him turn around, so he said: "The prince hasn't left the house yet?" ”
Liu Yu's figure didn't move, as if he was seriously appreciating the blooming camellia, "Hmm." ”
Bai Jinghao didn't squirm, and said bluntly: "Are you waiting for me?" ”
Only then did he look sideways a little, and his deep eyes looked at her.
"Does the prince have something to tell me?" Bai Jinghao persevered.
Liu Yu smiled lightly, opened his lips and replied, "None." ”
Bai Jinghao's right hand shook slightly, almost didn't hold the lamp in his hand, and looked at him in surprise.
Just now under the corridor, she was angry, angry that Liu Yu and her father said those inexplicable and misleading words, but the two were not familiar with each other, only about identity, and she had no position to question a prince.
He and his father have finished talking about business, and at this moment, staying in Baifu and appearing on the way back to the inner courtyard, isn't it looking for her to do something?
But now there is a "nothing", which makes Bai Jinghao very embarrassed.
She was ready to leave, "That doesn't bother the prince Yaxing." ”
Liu Yu moved slightly and stopped in front of her.
Bai Jinghao stared at the past, his eyes full of incomprehension.
"I heard that your lost jade ring has been found by Wei Shizi, so he ordered someone to send it back?"
That's it?
Bai Jing was so incomprehensible that she nodded with it.
Liu Yu immediately asked: "Then when the king returned you, why didn't you wonder why there were two identical ones?" ”
"The one that the prince returned was lost by me."
Liu Yu was interested, "It turns out that you already know." ”
Bai Jing was polite and said politely: "The thing is returned to the original owner, thank you to the prince." ”
"Don't you have anything to ask the king?"
Bai Jing curled her lips indifferently, and said with a smile: "The prince is a person who does great things, and I am just a little woman, and it has nothing to do with what you are planning, so there is nothing to inquire about." ”
Liu Yu looked at her seriously for a long time, and Fang returned to his former gentle and approachable expression, shaking his head and smacking his tongue: "I thought that I was angry for you and solved the two grandmothers who bullied you, and you would be grateful to me and regard me as a benefactor, but I didn't expect you to be so distracted that you didn't care about it at all." ”
This is the ability to fight a rake...... Bai Jinghao suppressed her emotions and said calmly: "I remember that the prince asked me if I needed to deal with the aftermath at that time, and I refused. ”
"You mean, this king is nosy?"
"Don't dare."
Liu Yu smiled, "Don't you dare?" At the beginning, you didn't dare to bother the king to deal with the aftermath, but the king understood that you really wanted in your heart, but it was inconvenient to speak up because of your identity, so after you left, I solved the two for you. If you don't dare at the moment, this king doesn't know what to think. ”
Bai Jing was dumbfounded, and couldn't understand that the other party would say such a thing.
To be reasonable, whether it is killing the East Palace Mama, or trying to harm the queen, or framing the imperial concubine, it is all what he does with the nine princes, what does it have to do with himself?
Just do it, why do you still make this appearance of doing it for yourself?
"Lord Wang, you have some strong words, right?"
Bai Jinghao glared angrily, "Even if you don't deal with them, you won't be able to bother me when they wake up." ”
Liu Yu answered: "Yes, Miss Bai is very good at medicine." ”
Bai Jinghao didn't want to argue with him, "What is the intention of the prince to stay in Baifu and stop here?" ”
"I want to find you and see what I can do for Miss Bai." His face was full of sincerity.
Bai Jinghao took two steps back, "Reason? ”
"This king helps you, and naturally there are times when you need your help."
It's true, but ...... Bai Jing was puzzled: "What can I do for the prince?" ”
"Just now, my conversation with Ling Zun, Miss can be clear outside the door, right?"
"The prince looks down on me, I can't help you in these things. What's more, with the means of the prince, my father has already compromised you. Bai Jinghao asked him to rest assured, "My father values the family and will not let you use my mother's affairs to trouble the Bai family, so he will help you do it." ”
"Why should Miss Bai be presumptuous, your status in the Bai family is not low."
"I'm just a young lady from a concubine, without the help of my biological mother, let alone my father's favor, which is useless to the prince." Bai Jinghao was not willing to get involved in the other party's affairs.
Liu Yu has his own opinions, "But in the eyes of this king, you have more weight than the second lady who is golden and jade, and the third lady who is favored by thousands of people." ”
"The prince has lifted me up."
"If you don't have the ability, why did you become the person who presided over the middle feed in the Shangshu Mansion so quickly? This king remembers that when he came to the house not long ago, the eldest lady was just a person who knelt in front of her sister's door to curry favor with her, but now she rarely hears the virtuous name of your second lady, aren't these all from the hands of the young lady? ”
When he said this, Bai Jinghao frowned, "The prince is also interested in investigating these mansion matters?" ”
