Chapter 192: The Jealous Woman (I)
Rong Hua embroidered flowers and listened to the sound of the rain outside, the rain would not stop, the weather was cooler, the curtain of the breeze swayed gently, Rong Hua picked the wick, a little sleepy. ()
I just closed my eyes for a while, and when I heard the sound of the window and opened my eyes, she was already covered with a thin quilt, and the half-open window was also closed.
Xue Mingrui turned his head, and Rong Hua met his gaze.
With a slight smile in his slender eyes, Rong Hua finally put his mind at ease.
Xue Mingrui sat on the edge of the bed, and Rong Hua saw that there was some rain on him, so he was about to get up and get the silk.
"You lie down, I can do these things myself." As he spoke, he got up and unbuttoned his official uniform.
Rong Hua still reached out to take it.
Xue Mingrui finished scrubbing with a towel, Rong Hua took it and put it away, the towel was just placed on the shelf, and before he turned around, his waist was tightened and the whole thing was hugged.
The broad chest with a mint fragrance, like a dry and soft blade of grass, touched her face, the gentle breath made people itch slightly, she curled up in his arms, and waited until he gently placed her between the futons.
Seeing that his bright eyes gradually dimmed, she looked into it and was momentarily distracted, her slender fingers pulled over, invaded her fingers, and the palm of her hand fell to meet hers, and then the slender fingers were clenched tightly.
He whispered softly in her ear, "Is this what it means to hold the hand of the son and the son to be old?" ”
The words and phrases in the Book of Poetry were just the beginning of love in her impression, and she pulled up her fingers in a youthful manner, how could she be interpreted by him like this.
Now this scene" her face was slightly red, and she was about to open her mouth to defend herself, but his whole body overturned, lowered his head to ** her lips, and her breathing was also caused to become short, and a few slight touches, like a feather sweeping, suddenly itched into her heart.
"Rong Hua." His voice was not as clear as usual, his eyelashes were slightly constricted, and the tips of his eyes were ruddy."
Rong Ping's ss shuddered.
Seeing that her face was as gorgeous as the morning glow, and the bright moon in her eyes was now covered with a layer of fine sand, she looked at him with her eyes slightly open, and she wanted to speak, his heart was suddenly bumped, and when he lowered his head again, his breathing was already uncontrollably tight, licking her soft lips, slowly invading the past, and her fingers fell "Twisted lightly on her waist, slid all the way up, and suddenly closed, she couldn't help but snort softly."
Originally, her heart was still clear and calm, but she suddenly made waves, and her mind was almost uncontrollable, even so, her body rose and fell slightly, and she was still not as careful as usual, seeing her frown slightly, she patiently stretched out her hand to straighten her long hair a little, until she let go of the corners of her eyebrows, which was lingering in every way, greedy for a while.
Hearing a gentle knock on the door outside, Rong Hua woke up.
It's time for Xue Mingrui to get up and get ready to go to court.
Wearing a good official uniform, "a pair of eyes are still so clear", how can people be different.
Just now she put on her shoes and went to the ground, and suddenly felt that her legs and feet were sore, and she couldn't help blushing......
"I forgot to tell you last night."
He muttered, she couldn't help but startle, as if she saw something, his slender eyes bent and smiled, "There is still time, you sleep a little longer, you don't have to eat breakfast with me." ”
Rong Hua blushed, "Then how can it be done...... and hurriedly opened the topic, "What did Master Hou say just now?" ”
Xue Mingrui said: "Shi Mian's grandson, although the emperor has pardoned him, I'm afraid it will not be easy to find a place to stay." The Shi family has been implicated in many people, but those who have not entered the Shi may not be willing to accept it. "It's just because he is the son of a criminal minister, and he is afraid of ruining his reputation if he keeps it at home.
Rong Hua said: "It is always best to grow up in the Shi family, after all, they are blood relatives, and those who are close are unwilling to take them in, and those who are a little farther away, maybe there are people who don't care, and since they are not held accountable, there will always be opportunities in the future, whether it is business or the imperial examination." ”
Xue Mingrui nodded, "It's just that before I find a suitable Shi family, I can't send him to the Yali, so I will stay in our house for the time being, I found a house outside, and I have asked two mothers-in-law, two daughters-in-law and a little maid to take care of them last night, and there will be a mother-in-law to talk to you in a while." ”
was supposed to let her arrange it, but why didn't she tell her, and when she came back last night, she didn't say a word, she probably didn't want to disturb her rest, but she was ...... It really didn't make her sleep all night.
She raised her head and looked a little resentful, just wanting to repay him for making fun of her in the morning, but she didn't expect a trace of confusion to appear on his indifferent face, Rong Hua wanted to see it clearly, his expression flashed away, and she thought she was dazzled.
"I've heard something." Xue Mingrui's eyes swept to the cuffs, and he twisted the clothes with his fingers, Rong Hua looked over, this official uniform was clearly very smooth, where it needed to be sorted out.
"The emperor attaches great importance to Li Guiren's pregnancy. I met the envoy of the Imperial Hospital Zhou in the palace, and the envoy of the Zhou Yuan said that the emperor appointed him and a Li imperial doctor to diagnose the pulse of Li Guiren, and also arranged special palace maids, aunts and eunuchs. Xue Mingrui paused, "This kind of situation has never happened before." ”
Rong Hua was slightly shocked in his heart, could it be that the emperor really favored Li Guiren to such a point?
Xue Mingrui said: "Recently, there will be a decree of Jin Feng. , as soon as I say this, I want people to know that I am no longer the exclusive pet of the imperial concubine's harem.
Prince Zhuang's faction was frustrated by the Ministry of Industry's corruption of ink, and the imperial concubine's faction originally thought that they could overpower Prince Zhuang this time, but they didn't expect that a pregnant Li Guiren would come out.
"In this way, the emperor did not make up his mind."
Xue Mingrui's eyes lit up and looked at Rong Hua.
"If you make up your mind, there is Concubine De under the imperial concubine, the emperor can be promoted to Concubine De, Concubine De entered the palace early, and has Prince Ying, my father has been a bachelor, and my mother's family has no important position, so it will not have much to do with it." Prince Ying is also an idle prince, "There is no partisan gathering around him, and Concubine De occupies the position of the middle palace, so no one will say that the prince born to the imperial concubine is the most noble."
But he just set up a Li nobleman to come out, but he just took away the favor of the imperial concubine but not the status, even if he gave a blow, it was very small, just like the emperor dealt with the Ministry of Industry's greed for ink, but the trial did not trace the source.
Prince Zhuang is the most outstanding of the princes, the prince born to the imperial concubine, I heard that he is very smart, and he is deeply loved by the emperor.
After all, he is the prince of a country, and the emperor will not easily draw conclusions, even if he has a conclusion in his heart, he must balance various relationships, and it is inevitable that there will be chaos because of this.
Xue Mingrui smiled slightly, "I didn't expect you to know so much." ”
Rong Hua met Xue Mingrui's gaze, "The old lady told me." Although it seems to be a small talk, it is actually to let her understand the current situation.
"Now we should hope that the noble person's child will be born smoothly, and no one should take advantage of this life to cause trouble."
Send Xue Mingrui away, "Rong Hua went to greet the old lady."
The old lady smiled: "I also said just now that there is a girl in my room who is old enough to be released, and I am worried that no one will help me look at this dowry list, and you are just right to come."
The old lady said, Mother Li handed the list in her hand to Rong Hua to see, Rong Hua smiled and took it, there are really a lot of things listed in the long list, covered with shops, jewelry, and clothes, the big girl Xiangyu next to the old lady is not young, it should be her, Rong Hua was thinking, Xue Yu came in and said, "Steward Yu's family is here." ”
Rong Hua didn't expect that the old lady was going to give Xiangyu to the son of Steward Yu.
The rest of the steward's family knelt down in an orderly manner to thank him.
The old lady smiled slightly, "The young lady is helping me draw up a dowry list, and if I marry the girl next to me, I will definitely not treat you badly." ”
Steward Yu hurriedly said: "It's all the grace of the old lady, and it's too late for our family to be happy." ”
The old lady nodded, "Steward Yu's family thanked Rong Hua again."
She didn't actually do anything, but she received this great gift.
Steward Yu's family left, and Rong Hua said: "There is a quota for the maids in everyone's house, and there have always been two shortages in the fourth aunt's room. ”
The old lady smiled: "You can weigh these." ”
As he was talking, the old lady's medicine was brought up, and the one who served the medicine was still the maid Rong Hua had seen before.
The old lady took the medicine and didn't rush to let the maid go down, and glanced at Rong Hua with a smile, "This is Jingyue in Mingrui's room." ”
Rong Hua was stunned: "I didn't expect that the maid in front of me was the big maid in Xue Mingrui's room."
The old lady said: "When you got married, the girl was just gone, I was afraid that she would be happy to stay in the house, so I let this girl come to my house, and now after this period of time, the taboo is gone, so I ......"
When Jing Yue heard this, she immediately knelt down and said: "The slave maid wants to ask the old lady and the young lady for a favor, Sister Xiangyu is getting married, and the old lady also needs manpower around her, and the slave maid wants to stay by the old lady's side to serve." ”
The old lady was stunned, "What are these words?" ”
Jing Yue's eyes turned red and said: "Before, the slave maid had a Lao Tzu to support, but now that Lao Tzu has gone over there to enjoy the blessings, the slave and maid have nothing else in their hearts, they just want to serve the old lady wholeheartedly, so as to repay the old lady's kindness." He kowtowed as he spoke.
The old lady didn't expect Jing Yue's girl to behave like this, and looked at Mother Li beside her, and Mother Li stepped forward to help Jing Yue up.
Where is Jingyue willing to get up.
The old lady sighed, "It's rare that you are an idiot", and said to look at Rong Hua, "I will ask you for this girl" There are not enough people in your room, so you will choose a few more. ”
Rong Hua responded.
The old lady raised her hand, "Alright, alright, get up quickly!" ”
Jing Yue stood up from the ground at this time.
Rong Hua looked at this girl named Jingyue for the first time, she looked a little thin, with a pointed face, the color of her eyebrows was not very heavy, but her eyes were very bright, and she looked at Rong Hua with respect.
They had met a few times, but Jingyue didn't deliberately want to attract her attention, and she really ignored this smart girl.
Rong Hua came out of the old lady's room, and Chunyao immediately stepped forward and said, "Madame is looking for the young lady." ”
Rong Hua asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Chunyao's face suddenly became not very good-looking.
