Chapter 46: A Shocking Case (3)
At the beginning, when Hong'er brought her Xianyunju's jade cake, she would deliberately pretend to be disliked. It's just that after a long time, she no longer refuses, and that Hong'er is a very caring maid, so back and forth, they have become good sisters who talk about everything.
Yesterday, Hong'er brought her a letter from King Rui, which was concise and to the point, with only two sentences: "The spring rain is cold, I hope that Qing is well!" ”
Although it is only a short number, it is full of deep affection.
Listening to Hong'er, King Rui was ordered by the prince to inspect the Zijiang River and supervise the construction of the flood control embankment.
If she is as smart as her, how can she not know the mind of King Rui.
It's just that she already has a heart, and in this life, I'm afraid that she is destined to live up to his affection.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a little depressed in my heart, or it was drizzling continuously recently, and even a reckless person like her couldn't help but feel inexplicably sad.
With his hands stretched out, he suddenly wanted to move his muscles and bones, and this idea came to mind, and the pale pink figure had already jumped out of the corridor and came to the crape myrtle tree, breaking off a branch at will as a sword, wielding it freely, and his posture was agile, like a fairy.
When Bamboo Shadow took advantage of the umbrella to walk into the Asahi Garden, he saw this moving scene.
Seeing her dancing the sword in the rain like this, with a long-lost smile between her eyebrows, Zhuying was stunned for a moment, hesitating whether to interrupt her or tell her about it.
As he was looking at her and pondering, she had already jumped in front of him, and the jade finger raised the branch in her hand and pointed directly at his shoulder, and shouted coquettishly: "Bold Bamboo Shadow, without Miss Ben's permission, dare to trespass into the Xu Garden?" Don't be obedient and arrested, let Miss Ben dispose of it! ”
Seeing that she was holding back a smile, she finally finished saying this with a straight face, but before he could react, she had already thrown away the branch in her hand and laughed heartily.
"Haha! Brother Zhuying, why don't you cooperate at all? Give me some expressions! Really! It's so boring to make Mo'er play a one-man show! Yumo smiled and patted Zhuying's arm in protest.
Since she was injured last year after leaving the mountain to hunt and falling off a cliff, her temperament has long been very different, except for King Qin and King Rui, she is rarely seen smiling. It's just that today he can see her laughing so unscrupulously, and Zhuying is really a little surprised, so that when Jiang Yumo shook his hand in front of his eyes, he came to his senses.
Yumo saw that he drooped his face as soon as he entered the courtyard, looking distracted, so he asked softly, "Brother Zhuying!" What happened to you? Was you scolded by your daddy? How can you be so listless? You also know Daddy's temperament, just say you and it's over. Don't take it personally! ”
"Miss, I'm fine. It's just that...... It's just that Xiangye ...... "Although Zhuying has spoken, he stammered a little, and he didn't know whether to tell her or not."
Yumo saw that he was spitting and spitting, as if there was something unspeakable, and it was related to his father, his heart immediately tightened, and he asked, "What's wrong with him, Daddy?" Big Brother Bamboo Shadow! ”
Under her repeated questioning, Zhuying had to tell her about today's court, but she was shocked after hearing it, and slowly shook her head, unwilling to believe it.
"Really? Where is Xiangye now? It was not Jiang Yumo who asked, but Mrs. Xue who came out of the room, only to see her eyebrows frowning, her eyes were anxious, and she was staring at the bamboo shadow.
Zhuying turned around and bowed his hand, and said in a deep voice: "It's true, Xiangye just returned from the palace, and he is now resting in the Zhiyi Garden." ”
When Mrs. Xue heard this, she had already raised her feet and hurried out of the garden, Jiang Yumo took the umbrella in Zhuying's hand and caught up with Mrs. Xue, and comforted: "Mother, don't worry!" Daddy was afraid of depression in his heart at the moment, and his mother went to Zhiyi Garden and pretended not to know about it for the time being. Just be ordinary, go to lunch with him. ”
Yumo's words made Mrs. Xue wake up suddenly, she patronized and worried, but forgot his mood at the moment, thinking that her steps had slowed down, she picked up Yumo's hand, and said: "Mo'er, think about it carefully, this matter is a little strange, doesn't King Qin know Mo'er?" How could you not wait for the criminal department case to be closed, and just step down from your father's public office? ”
Yes, he and she did know each other and loved each other.
However, at this moment, she didn't know why he was suddenly like this, knowing that her father had finally approved their marriage, how could he do such an incomprehensible thing at this juncture.
When their mother and daughter came to Zhiyi Garden, Jiang Yuxi's mother and daughter were drinking tea with Jiang Chengze in the study.
When I entered the garden, I heard Mrs. Ping's long sigh.
"Husband, this matter must have been deliberately designed by King Qin, thinking that he had only listened to the words of a few homeless people in Pingzhou, and had not been thoroughly investigated by the Criminal Department, so he was so unclear that the crime of the husband and the husband was dismissed, it was simply too deceitful!"
"Presumptuous! What do you know as a woman? How can you talk about the government behind your back? Jiang Chengze stopped her sharply, and the tea in the cup spilled on the table.
Mrs. Ping pursed her lips, but did not dare to say more.
Yuxi took the silk handkerchief to wipe the tea on the back of Jiang Chengze's hand, but saw that Yumo's mother and daughter were walking into the room, their hands were sluggish, and they put the silk handkerchief into their sleeves, deliberately skimming their faces, letting them salute, but turning a blind eye to them.
"The concubine has seen the crown princess!"
"Yumo has seen the crown princess!"
Yumo saw that she deliberately ignored it, and was slightly resentful in her heart, she originally thought that after this sister married a woman, she would be able to restrain her arrogant temperament, but she didn't want to get even worse now.
Seeing this, Jiang Chengze gave Yuxi a look, and Yuxi had to wave his hand reluctantly, and his tone was quite impatient: "Get up!" It's all a family, no need to be polite! ”
"Humph! What a family! Xi'er! You are the crown princess, how can you lower your value? Mrs. Ping was already angry that King Qin had dismissed her husband, but now that she saw Jiang Yumo, she was naturally angry, and she couldn't wait to step forward and give her a few slaps: "Mo'er!" Didn't that King of Qin brave the world's disapproval and want to marry you during the period of heavy filial piety? How can he harm his future father-in-law so indiscriminately now? But Mo'er, you didn't serve Your Highness well, so he poured his anger on your father? ”
She was angry right now, but she couldn't go to the Qin Palace, so she could only use Jiang Yumo to open the knife. Jiang Chengze knew that she intended to do this, but he didn't stop it, just sighed frequently.
Mrs. Xue saw that her husband had no intention of protecting her mother and daughter, so she had to hold Yumo's wrist tightly and signal her not to be impulsive.
Poor Yumo was questioned by Mrs. Ping for no reason, but taking into account his father's mood at the moment, he forcibly suppressed the anger, and just said indifferently: "The eldest lady is serious, although Mo'er is a concubine, but she has been holding her father and mother in her hand and loving her so far, even if she can't glorify the lintel of Jiang Mansion, she will never do anything that humiliates the family!" ”
