Chapter 37: Ti Ying
"You mean......" Lu Mubai's soul was shocked, and he gasped, "You are going to take a bath, His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes pulled you to the bath bucket together, and then His Royal Highness King Huan still saw you......"
Lu Ruoqing hurriedly explained, "No! I didn't see anything, I was wearing clothes. ”
"That's ridiculous, too!" Lu Mubai was furious, but in an instant, he sighed helplessly, "It's ridiculous, these two are both nobles, what can they do?" And how?! ”
He said the same thing twice with a look on his face, obviously very angry.
"Brother." Lu Ruoqing persuaded him: "The matter has passed. ”
"In the past? So what is His Royal Highness the Nine Emperors looking for you today? ”
Of course, Lu Ruoqing couldn't say the real reason, and lied: "It's nothing, it's just that I'm worried that I will tell the events of the day, so King Huan will know about it, and I will get into any trouble for him, so I warned me." ”
"That's it?"
"What else else?" Lu Ruoqing lied but didn't blush, "I told him, my girl's family name is the most important, how can I tell people about this kind of thing?" Tell him to rest assured, even in my dreams, I won't talk nonsense. ”
Lu Mubai still felt that he couldn't fully believe it.
He hesitated: "But if it's just to warn you, His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes can just find someone to pass the word, why bother so much? ”
Lu Ruoqing replied: "Who knows? Maybe he was too suspicious to trust others. ”
"That's not right." Lu Mubai thought about it, "Since he has appeared on the street publicly, why are you afraid of being tracked by King Huan before?" Anyway, he was the one who was injured before, and if he was wrong, it could only be King Huan. ”
Lu Ruoqing replied: "How can it be the same? His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes can show up now, it should have found an excuse, but he still returned to Beijing without an edict before. ”
Lu Mubai did not object.
Lu Ruoqing groaned: "Besides, maybe he has other confidential things before?" In short, he must have his concerns, so he will not be at ease. ”
As for poisoning and Xue Wen, he will definitely not say it.
Lu Mubai nodded when he heard this, and hesitated again, "Could it be that His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes has taken a fancy to you?" ”
After all, his sister is beautiful.
"How so?" Lu Ruoqing immediately denied it, "You think, not to mention how embarrassing the situation was at the time, just think that I was seen by His Royal Highness King Huan, how can His Royal Highness the Nine Emperors accept it?" ”
Lu Mubai believed this statement.
That's right, men, no one wants to use second-hand goods.
"What about His Royal Highness King Huan? What's going on? Lu Mubai felt that there were too many questions in his heart, "When I was in the Jokhang Temple that day, His Royal Highness King Huan only saw you, not His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes, right?" And then, he had a mind on you? ”
Lu Ruoqing couldn't do what happened later, and nodded perfunctorily, "It should be like this." ”
Although the reason is perfunctory, her appearance and talent are too outstanding, and it is reasonable for King Huan to fall in love at first sight.
Lu Mubai groaned and asked, "His Royal Highness King Huan wants you to be a side concubine, are you unwilling?" I listened to what my mother said. ”
Lu Ruoqing said lightly: "Qi Da is not a coincidence. ”
She brought out the trick she had made before, and said it decently.
Lu Mubai frowned, "Ruoqing, my brother is not greedy for wealth and nobility, I have to ask you to be the concubine of King Huan." But ......, after all, it is His Royal Highness King Huan, how can you allow you to refuse? When the time comes, I'm afraid that even your life will have to be put into it. ”
"I understand." Lu Ruoqing didn't want her brother and mother to worry too much, so she simply relieved herself, "I just said that I would like to find a way to see if I can refuse His Royal Highness King Huan, but I didn't say that this concubine of King Huan would rather die than do it." ”
She smiled slightly, "Brother, don't worry, I won't do anything to make His Royal Highness King Huan angry." ”
"And what can you do?" Lu Mubai asked.
"For example, my temper is not very good, short-sighted, etc., as long as I can dislike His Royal Highness King Huan, I can show it appropriately. If this is the case, His Royal Highness King Huan still wants to marry me, then accept your fate. ”
Lu Mubai didn't think she was going to be drastic, so he was a little relieved.
But he still persuaded her, "Ruoqing, you are a smart person, you must remember to stop in moderation." ”
Lu Ruoqing smiled and nodded, "I know, King Huan is not a fool. ”
In fact, what she just said was perfunctory.
Just relying on small means, such as poor temper and short knowledge, I am afraid that King Huan cannot be made to die. After all, it is impossible for her to lose her temper with King Huan, no matter how short her knowledge is, it will not prevent her from being a side concubine, and she has to find another way.
After thinking about it, she had to start with Su Shufei, the biological mother of King Huan.
At the banquet of King Huan in the previous life, Concubine Su Shu asked for a holy decree to come to the palace, saying that it was to celebrate her son's birthday, but in fact, she secretly selected the main concubine and the side concubine for King Huan.
At that time, as long as Concubine Su Shu doesn't look down on her, the matter will almost be done.
Lu Ruoqing smiled slightly.
She was confident, because she knew what kind of woman Su Shufei hated the most.
"Miss." The medicinal incense came in with a curtain open.
Lu Ruoqing was thinking about it, frowning when she heard the words, "Something?" ”
"It's the wild girl I met at the door before, and I'm here again." Yao Xiang looked bored, and said with disgust: "What do you say in your mouth, you have already let people bury her father, and she wants to come to the Lu family to be a girl and repay the great kindness of the young lady." ”
Lu Ruoqing smiled when she heard this, "Repay me?" ”
---- spy on her.
"It's disgusting!" Yao Xiang said in disgust: "There are so many girls in our house, who is rare about her?" The Lu family is not a small family, how can they ask a wild girl to call? She kowtowed and knocked a lot of blood, which was strange and scary, and it was not easy to get rid of her. ”
"That's it." Lu Ruoqing was really not interested in singing a big opera, so she said lazily: "Since she is so sincere, let her be a rough girl who cleans the yard, but it is just a matter of one more person to eat." ”
"Huh? Miss, you really want to keep that wild girl. ”
"What's in your way?" Lu Ruoqing asked rhetorically.
"She can't stop the slave." Yao Xiang swallowed her saliva and explained: "But the country girl, who has never been trained, isn't it idle to stay in the house?" ”
Lu Ruoqing didn't have time to explain, and said coldly: "If you are told to go, you will go!" ”
"Oh, yes, yes!" Yaoxiang was so frightened that she hurried away.
A cold glint flashed in Lu Ruoqing's eyes.
In her previous life, Yao Xianghu acted as a servant, helping her grandmother and causing her to ruin her reputation, but she didn't dare to be so uninteresting? She still has the medicinal fragrance, which does not mean that she is tolerant and forgives the medicinal fragrance.
But in her eyes, Yao Xiang will die sooner or later, and now she is a dead person.
After a while, Yao Xiang led the girl in, and said carefully: "Miss, just let her change into clean clothes, and told the housekeeper's mother, let her do the cleaning work in the yard in the future." ”
Lu Ruoqing looked up.
The girl looked miserable before, but now that she has combed her hair and changed into clean clothes, she looks quite neat.
Take a closer look, the other party's knuckles are strong and powerful, with slight calluses, like traces left by years of martial arts, and he should know some kung fu, but he is still a civil and military all-rounder.
Lu Ruoqing was not too surprised.
If it is an ordinary girl, she must not let Xiao Shaoxuan be entrusted with a heavy responsibility, naturally she has something extraordinary.
"What's your name?" Lu Ruoqing asked.
"Ti Ying."
"............" Lu Ruoqing was speechless for a while.
The story of Ti Ying's rescue of her father is known to everyone.
Xiao Shaoxuan must have been too lazy to think of a name, so he asked someone to arrange the script, and even used the name along the way.
However, love is what it is called.
Lu Ruoqing didn't want to deal with Ti Ying more.
So he left Ti Ying alone and confessed: "You usually clean and clean the yard, there is no other rough work, there is no troublesome work, and you will not be disadvantaged by food and clothing." ”
"Yes, thank you, Miss." Ti Ying is not a real wild girl, and her behavior is very regular.
Lu Ruoqing's eyes wandered, staring at her, "You remember, don't cause trouble for me!" Don't inquire about me! ”
Ti Ying said solemnly: "Miss don't worry, I am only responsible for taking medicine for His Highness." ”
In the tone, there was a faint hint of pride.
Lu Ruoqing understood in her heart.
Ti Ying is a powerful person by Xiao Shaoxuan's side, and he used to serve the prince, so he naturally doesn't look down on the Lu family, but I'm afraid that he still feels wronged here.
But he didn't say much about it, and waved his hand, "You go down." ”
Ti Ying immediately retired.
Lu Ruoqing felt that this was fine, someone was in charge of taking the medicine, and Xiao Shaoxuan would not come to scare her in the middle of the night.
Now, King Huan and Nian Xi have already given her a headache, if Xiao Shaoxuan gets involved again, wouldn't it be even more annoying? She is not worried about the fight between King Huan and Xiao Shaoxuan, even if they all have to live or die, they are happy to see it.
But Nian Xi will definitely not be able to withstand the fire of the two princes!
But then again, will Xiao Shao-hyun come to her for trouble? Lu Ruoqing recalled carefully, in her previous life, she was insulted by Xiao Shaoxuan after drinking, and gave birth to a son again, as if she had not harmed him.
But, ...... in this life, she happened to poison him.
---- said that it was a last resort.
In fact, if Xiao Shaoxuan promised not to kill her, it wouldn't hurt to give him the antidote.
She didn't want to be involved with Xiao Shaoxuan at all.
As for letting her find a way to kill Xiao Shaoxuan, in terms of the current situation, it is not much different from hitting a stone with an egg. After all, the reborn Xiao Shaoxuan is ten or a hundred times more difficult to deal with than King Huan, which is too dangerous.
Lu Ruoqing thinks that knowing the times is a good man, and if you can't afford to provoke it, it's better to stay away.
Even King Huan and Lu Ruoqing didn't want to care about it a little.
Anyway, Xiao Shaoxuan will not let King Huan go, and as expected, it will definitely make King Huan worse than in his previous life!
So why did she meddle? Is it just the pleasure of slashing the enemy for himself? It's better to be quiet, and by the way, free Nian Xi from the whirlpool, and everyone will save trouble.
Looking at it this way, her mission in this life seems to have changed.
In the future, it is best to stay away from the two princes, and then find a lover, marry, have children, and live a peaceful and happy life, which seems to be good.
Will she be so lucky, though? It's hard to say.
At least for now, King Huan won't let go easily, and she has to deal with it well.
