"The county lord? The world is still waiting for you. The guard urged.

Wei Nong came back to his senses, and subconsciously glanced at Yunchen, and saw that his eyes were slightly drooping, his thin lips were pursed, and his face was expressionless, as if he hadn't seen or heard anything.

Wei Nong felt that Yunchen was very abnormal, and was thinking about whether to ask, but saw that he had already taken the lead and left. Slightly puzzled for a moment, some vague thoughts flashed in his mind, but he couldn't catch it, so he left with the guard.

On the chariot outside the palace gate, Yuan Che saw Weinong coming from a distance and immediately got out of the car to greet him. Wei Nong only glanced at him and got into the car, and only after the chariot sat down and set off did she ask, "What do you want to do?" ”

Yuan Che smiled back: "I just want to invite you to see the new garden, it's nothing." ”

Slightly suspicious: "I thought you had something to say before you came out." ”

Yuan Che was very calm: "Wait until you get to the place?" ”

Wei Nong saw that he was selling Guanzi, although he was anxious, but he was also afraid of being overheard, so he didn't ask more.

In this way, they were silent all the way, and finally arrived outside the door of Yuan Che's private mansion. Wei Nong got out of the car and looked up, the lintel was quite magnificent, and it looked really new. She casually asked, "Did you buy it yourself?" ”

"Grandfather Wang." Yuan Che paused: "I gave it when I married a concubine." ”

Marrying a concubine can make King Ning so generous, which shows that Yuan Che's marriage makes him distressed. Wei Nong didn't ask any more, walked straight into the door, and looked around, the pavilions, ponds, pavilions, corridors and pavilions, although they could not be called carved beams and paintings, they were also exquisite to home. The only fly in the ointment is that it is winter, the flowers and plants are withering, and the pond water is also frozen.

Visiting the garden in winter was a very clumsy excuse, but Wei Nong didn't believe it at all, so she asked, "What do you have to say?" ”

As if he hadn't heard it, Yuan Che led Wei Nong to the foyer, and said endlessly: "Although this house was given by my grandfather when I married a concubine, his old man meant to urge me to marry a wife, saying that I have children and daughters in the future, and I should have a house for my family to live in, and then I don't have to crowd in the Beijing Mansion with other brothers in Lidu." ”

Yuan Che's concubine was only half a year ago, judging from these words, King Ning was still very close to him at that time, but according to what she saw, it was probably Yuan Che's side concubine who was not from a low background, so King Ning was so happy.

"Whose daughter is that side concubine of yours?"

"The youngest daughter of the new commander of the Gyeonggi Defense Department is called Shi Lingye." Yuan Che smiled slightly: "He is also a wild man, he loves to read the art of war, but he doesn't like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." ”

Wei Nong seemed to understand Yuan Che's hint, paused, and then asked, "Is she here today?" ”

"No," Yuan Che lowered his head, "Since that incident, I was afraid that Grandfather Wang would implicate her if he blamed her, so I let her go back to her parents' house for the time being." ”

Wei Nong didn't ask anymore.

Yuan Che took a deep breath and lifted his spirit: "Since you're here, I'll take you to take a look?" ”

Wei Nong was about to say no, but he heard him say again: "I'll show you again, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to get out." ”

"What do you mean?" Wei Nong immediately asked.

Yuan Che smiled: "You are too sensitive, I mean, my house is big!" After that, he no longer gave Wei Nong a chance to refuse, and had already walked through the hallway and walked inside, waving to Wei Nong as he went.

Wei Nong felt that Yuan Che was also very strange today, and what she said seemed to have a point, which made her unpredictable. She unconsciously followed, trying to see what he was up to.

The two of them retired from the guards and maidservants, and wandered around the private mansion. Everywhere he went, Yuan Che had to explain: "This is the front hall...... This is the East Chamber...... There is only one cloister road to the lotus pond. ”

Wei Nong listened absentmindedly, and had no spirit until Yuan Che led her to the stable, and said with a little pride on his face: "This is a few BMW horses I have collected, how about giving you one?" ”

"Send me?" Wei Nong's heart moved, and his eyes looked at him a little inquiring.

Yuan Che didn't seem to notice, and pulled an inconspicuous brown horse by hand, and said, "Don't look at it as inconspicuous, but it's a good horse that travels thousands of miles every day, you try?" ”

Wei Nong realized something, immediately turned on the horse, ran around the stable twice, and commented: "This horse is really good." ”

"Visionary, huh?" Yuan Che patted the horse's back and said cryptically: "This horse is given to you, temporarily stored here with me, if you need it, you can come and pick it up at any time." ”

Wei Nong nodded knowingly: "Okay, thank you." ”

Yuan Che smiled again: "Let's go, let's go and take a look elsewhere." ”

Throughout the day, Yuan Che led Wei Nong through the entire mansion, and even the subordinate's residence and back door were not let go. After shopping, Yuan Che also let Weinong taste the scenery layout, and the two had lunch and dinner in the private mansion.

Wei Nong found that there were very few people in this house, relatively lazy, the tables, chairs and benches were all new, and there was no trace of living in them at all. In other words, after Yuan Che married the side concubine, he has never lived here. So what does he mean by bringing himself here today...... Until the way back to King Ning's Palace, Wei Nong still vaguely understood, but not particularly understood.

In front of the palace gate, Yuan Che sent Wei Nong off the chariot and handed her a palace lamp: "I won't send you in, so that others don't have to chew their tongues in front of Grandfather Wang." Make an appointment tomorrow? ”

Wei Nong didn't agree immediately, and looked at Yuan Che for a long time. Under the dim light, he kept smiling, looking very sincere.

"Okay, see you tomorrow." Wei Nong paused for a moment, and said deliberately: "There is a dish that is good to eat today......

*****

"Bird's nest winter bamboo shoots?" In the holy study, King Ning frowned: "You mean, the prince has changed his opinion of him with this dish?" ”

"That's what the guards said, at the beginning, the Dusk clan was still holding a shelf, and they didn't want to die in their son's private residence. Later, the prince did what he liked, gave her a horse, and shared lunch with her, and her attitude improved, and she took the initiative to stay for dinner. The two made an appointment to meet again tomorrow, and Twilight specially proposed that he wanted to eat bird's nest and bamboo shoots again. The eunuch replied carefully.

"How did her attitude change so quickly?" King Ning felt that something was very strange, and asked again, "What did the two of them do today?" ”

"Just wandering around the prince's private residence, and didn't go anywhere." After the eunuch replied to this, he hesitated and asked: "Rong slave has a lot of words, and the prince led her to visit the garden and send the horse, could it be that he wanted to help her escape?" ”

King Ning pondered for a moment before saying, "No." He knows very well that this is his only chance to turn over, and he will seize it at all costs. ”

"But the minion feels that the prince seems to be very different from the Twilight clan." The eunuch still had some concerns: "Will the prince ...... to the Dusk family?"

"The Twilight family is five years older than him, and he has been married twice, so he definitely doesn't look down on him." King Ning said firmly: "The Dusk clan saved his life, it is normal for him to be soft-hearted, but he will not give up this great opportunity for her to eat inside and out." ”

"In that case, why did the prince take the Dusk clan to the private residence?" The eunuch still couldn't figure it out.

"That house was sent alone, the purpose is to let him get married and have an heir as soon as possible, he probably wants to hint at the Twilight family." At this point, King Ning was already a little impatient, and ordered: "You can pay close attention to the Dusk clan, and don't let her take advantage of the prince." ”

"Yes."

King Ning paid attention to Wei Nong's whereabouts, but she herself didn't know it, and she made an appointment with Yuan Che every day for the next two days to go to his house to eat bird's nest and winter bamboo shoots. Coincidentally, every morning when she went out, she would meet Yunchen passing by her door, as if he was deliberately trying to let her bump into her, but he didn't say anything, it didn't look like he had something to say, and he didn't seem to be hinting.

Two days later, on the morning of the twenty-third day of the lunar month, Weinong went to see Yuan Che as usual. When they arrived at the mansion, the two sat in the foyer drinking tea, Yuan Che still looked not salty or light, and what he said was plausible, making Wei Nong seem to understand whether he understood or not. Finally, the slight patience was exhausted, and I couldn't help but ask again: "Recently, you have invited me over every day, what do you want to do?" ”

Yuan Che didn't answer, looked up at the withered trees outside the window, and asked her: "I said that day, this house was given to me by my grandfather to marry my wife, do you remember?" ”

Wei Nong nodded.

"Then I brought you here, and you don't feel anything?" Yuan Che turned his head to look at her and asked seriously.

Wei Nong was a little embarrassed, pondered for a moment, and replied: "If you brought me here every day, just to hint at me, I wouldn't come again." ”

"Don't you really think about it? Politics aside, I will also be nice to you and do my best to be good to you. "Yuan Che is still fighting.

"I said I wouldn't remarry." Wei Nong bluntly refused.

The brilliance in Yuan Che's eyes suddenly extinguished: "Then you don't mean anything else when you see me these days?" ”

"I thought you had something to say to me, or wanted to help me." Wei Nong looked at Yuan Che calmly: "I don't know why you want to marry me, no matter who this means, I won't agree." ”

Yuan Che was a little sad, but he felt that this answer had already been expected by him. Perhaps, he just didn't give up, trying to grasp the faintest glimmer of hope, but now it seems that it is still his wishful thinking.

There was some pain in his heart, but it was bearable, Yuan Che couldn't help but look at Wei Nong, and his eyes showed a pleading look: "Since it's already out, let's have a good day, okay?" I'll never look for you again. ”

Wei Nong hesitated slightly: "Is it really the last time?" ”

"yes, really." Yuan Che lowered his eyes: "In the future...... Maybe there won't be another chance in the future.

*****

On this day, Yuan Che came to the stable with Wei Nong, pulled two horses out, and the two went to the suburbs to run horses, and had lunch at Swallow Tower at noon. Wei Nong originally thought that Yuan Che wanted to help her escape, but after thinking about Yuan Che's current situation, he probably wouldn't blatantly help her, and it would be good to prepare a horse for her. As long as she has the opportunity to leave the palace again, she can sneak into his house and lead the horse to escape, thinking like this, Wei Nong seems to understand Yuan Che's thoughts.

It was not until the time of the unit was close that the two returned to the original mansion. In winter, the days are short and the nights are long, and the sky has begun to sink at this time. This was the most boring meal, neither of them talked much, and after the meal, Yuan Che didn't mention sending her back, only said: "You come with me, I have something to give you." ”
