Chapter 84: Someone from the Palace
The Yongchuan Inn is newly furnished, and it has not delayed the arrival of the busy season. Old customers have come to stay one after another, and they are excited about this familiar environment, but there are some different and novel feelings. praised Steward Sun one by one.
The inn began to make a profit, and there was no delay in the payment of wages. Su Yingxue explained to Mr. Leng, everyone was busy a few days ago, and everyone gave an extra salary. Therefore, the Yongchuan Inn is full of joy up and down, just like the New Year. It was the smile on the face of the shopkeeper that became very sincere, so that the guests couldn't help but be happy when they saw it.
Su Yingxue, Tang Jun, Steward Sun, Steward Leng and Shopkeeper Tong were sitting around a table covered with books.
"Okay, that's it." Su Yingxue slapped the table and sat upright. "During this time, Steward Sun and Steward Leng will be in charge of all the affairs in the inn. If you encounter a tricky matter, the two of you will discuss it more. Shopkeeper Tong and I will go to Bazhou to check it out first, and if the opportunity is right, we will go directly to the next step. Saying that, he looked at Tang Jun, "These days, Brother Tang is also worrying more about things here. ”
Tang Jun didn't move, he only raised his eyes and glanced at Su Yingxue opposite. He moved his neck and said: "Don't worry about things here, I have already informed the government, if someone is looking for a gap to make trouble, even if you report to the official, the prefect will not dare to slack off." This was said to the two stewards on the right, Sun and Leng. The two listened and nodded in response.
"I'm tired of staying in this Fengcheng, so it's good to take this opportunity to go out for a walk with you."
Su Yingxue saw that although he was careless, what he said sounded serious, so she first instructed the shopkeeper Tong and a few people to go down to do things.
After these days of contact, Su Yingxue somewhat understood Tang Jun's temperament. Although Fengcheng is the fief of King Duan, it cannot leave without the emperor's order. As the prince of Duanwang, how can he leave at will?
"You left Fengcheng without permission, I'm just afraid that it will be inappropriate, right?" Su Yingxue looked at him very seriously.
Tang Jun didn't care with a face, "Hmph, I have a father and a brother, even if I want to inherit the title in the future, I will never be able to reach my head." Besides, even if such an identity is given to me for nothing, I won't want it. What is the difference between not being able to do anything and keeping a canary in a cage? Since he has given us up, he should not be pressed like this. simply relegated us to commoners, but was at ease. ”
When Su Yingxue heard this, she was startled, and hurriedly covered his mouth and motioned for him to be silent. It's just that when I looked at him again, I saw that his eyes seemed to be a little stunned, but suddenly they were full of smiles, and his palms felt his soft lips curl, and they were also frozen, and then blushed, and hurriedly let go. On his face, he hid it and hid it.
"You really dare to say anything, and you don't look anywhere! There are a lot of people here, so what if someone listens to it? Su Yingxue was a little annoyed.
"I know you care about me." Tang Jun put away his smile, but this time he lowered his voice and said: "It's just that my heart is so aggrieved, but my father and eldest brother are blindly seeking compromise, where can I go to say this to others?" But it can only be with you. ”
Su Yingxue wanted to say something, but was stopped by Tang Jun waving his hand.
"I trust you, you won't hurt me."
Yes, Su Yingxue said in her heart, I won't harm you, but I don't want to hear it if I kill my head like this. Su Yingxue touched her neck, always feeling that there was a cold knife behind that sentence, ready to slash at herself.
I really didn't mean to hear it, but I can't stand it from being told to me. Su Yingxue kept praying in her heart.
"Alright then, since you want to go out for a walk, let's go together. It's just that your father's place, you have to deal with it. ”
"Don't worry about this, I have my own way." A familiar smile appeared on Tang Jun's face again, and Su Yingxue was helpless.
Before going to bed at night, Caiyun helped Su Yingxue spread the quilt and said, "Childe, we are going to leave the day after tomorrow, but Gongzi Qin has not come back yet, but what should I do?" "These days, Caiyun has become a habit of calling Su Yingxue as his son every day.
Su Yingxue listened to it and counted the days, Qin Ziqing had been gone for five or six days, and it was supposed to be time to come back. I just don't know where he went to send that letter, or if he really went home? Su Yingxue couldn't tell what it was like in her heart. He should go back, and he shouldn't mess with his life because of her. However, she felt that he would definitely come back, because, because ······
Su Yingxue's heart stirred a mess.
Forget it, don't come back.
"You don't have to worry, maybe he's gone home. Besides, even if he really came back, he would have known as soon as he went to the inn and asked. ”
"Childe is saying that Gongzi Qin has returned to Yangzhou?" Caiyun stopped what he was doing and turned around and asked.
"I don't know." Su Yingxue knocked Caiyun's head and said with a smile: "Why, you care about him so much?" ”
Caiyun immediately fell to his knees in fright, "The slave doesn't dare, the slave just thinks that having Qin Gongzi by your side is like a relative, and it also reduces your homesickness." The slave did not have any intention of coveting it. ”
In fact, in Caiyun's heart, like all the people in Su Mansion, he has always regarded Qin Ziqing and Su Yingxue as a couple. However, she understood that it was this kind of thought that Su Yingxue minded in her heart, so she didn't dare to say her true thoughts.
Su Yingxue was a joke, she didn't want Caiyun to be scared like this, so she hurriedly helped her up.
"What to do so cautiously? I'm just kidding. Su Yingxue smiled and comforted her.
On the second day, Su Yingxue came to the inn early in the morning, and the shopkeeper Tong was already waiting there for something. After dealing with everything, I realized that there was one less person around me.
"Didn't Tang Gongzi come today?" Su Yingxue asked.
Everyone looked at Su Yingxue, with an expression on their faces that only you know, how would we know.
No matter what Tang Jun says, he can be regarded as a little prince, although he is only a fictitious name and has no real power, but after all, his identity is there, how can he talk to them if he doesn't come.
It's just that before anyone could speak, someone from the front hall came to report.
"Childe, someone has come to the palace."
As soon as these words came out, it became quieter in the four corners. Everyone looked at Su Yingxue one after another.
Su Yingxue was also puzzled, "Do you know what's going on?" ”
"The person who came said that he wanted to invite the son to come over to talk about it, but he didn't say what it was." The shopkeeper answered truthfully.
Could it be that it was because the matter of leaving Fengcheng was opposed by the prince and princess? Su Yingxue guessed.
"Shopkeeper Tong, you go to receive it first, and I'll go over later."
