Chapter 039: The Entangled Five Princes
Not to mention how Xiaohua went back to find Aunt Shen to discuss, but also said that the figure quickly shook off Xiaohua behind him, and walked around the city again, making sure that no one was following, and then came to a courtyard.
"Xiaobao, why did you come back so soon?" A man in an indigo shirt greeted him.
The person known as Xiaobao was very unhappy and said: "Brother, how many times have you said it, don't call me Xiaobao, like a child." ”
"Okay, okay." The man responded casually and asked, "What about you, why did you come back?" If you dare to mistake what the master explained, see that I don't skin you. ”
The man knew that Xiaobao was the youngest of all the brothers, and the most out-of-the-box, and the most impatient to do such things as surveillance, but he couldn't bear to be punished for doing something wrong, so he warned him like this.
Xiaobao pouted unhappily at first, and then said with his eyebrows fluttering: "Brother, how dare I, isn't this an unexpected gain, what do you think this is?" ”
As he spoke, Xiaobao took out the sachet he had snatched from Xiaohua's hand and shook it in front of the man.
Looking at the sachet, the man's expression sank slightly, and immediately asked what was going on, when he listened to Xiaobao's story, he reached out and touched the sachet, and the manliness was not in one place, and a "chestnut" was directly knocked on Xiaobao's head.
"Oops! Brother, why are you beating me? Xiaobao hugged his head aggrievedly.
The man looked at him with hatred, and although he was angry, he lowered his voice and said, "How many times have I told you, think twice before doing things!" Did the master explain it, don't let that Miss Rui notice! You snatched this sachet, and the young lady couldn't notice it? ”
Xiao Xia said unconvinced: "It wasn't snatched from that young lady, how could she think that it was us, at most she would suspect that maid." ”
"Do you think the sachet will be what the master is looking for? Can you use your brain before doing something? ”
Xiaobao didn't know why, so he opened the sachet in a daze, and when he saw the ants inside, he was even more stunned, and looked at the man blankly.
The man shook his head slightly, and was just about to say something, when he saw a bird flying from nowhere, which landed directly on his shoulder, and spit out a paper ball in his hand from his mouth.
As soon as he entered the room, the man saw the man in the royal blue shirt with his eyes slightly closed, and immediately stopped and stood silently aside.
The man in the royal blue shirt slowly opened his eyes, and a pair of beautiful eyes were as deep as the stars in the dark night, shining brightly.
"Master." The man nodded on one knee and said respectfully: "Just now, Xingmang sent someone to report that the whereabouts of that person have been traced, and they are tracking him down at this time, asking if they will take him down now." ”
The man's fingers tapped lightly on the table twice, and the figure quickly disappeared into the room, only his voice clearly reached the ears of the man who was kneeling on one knee.
"Listen to my orders, don't rush in, order Xingbao to keep an eye on Shen Lianyun's every move, and don't miss the slightest."
The man's mouth should be, but in his heart he already understood that the master heard the conversation between him and Xiaobao just now, and this order was a punishment for Xiaobao, and he could fully imagine that when Xiaobao heard this order, he would definitely wail.
Sure enough, when Xiaobao heard that the master ordered him to keep an eye on Shen Lianyun, he immediately wailed, but he didn't dare to disobey the master's order, and he obediently sneaked back to Liufu, looking for an opportunity, thinking that he had unknowingly put the sachet back into Ling Qingrui's room, and then monitored Shen Lianyun.
And Ling Qingrui sat on the swing in the courtyard, letting the swing sway slightly, and her eyes fell on the sachet in her hand, which should have been gone, but she had just found it from the corner under the bed.
Ling Qingrui narrowed her eyes slightly, Xiaohua would definitely not take the sachet, but someone else took it, and the other party could take the sachet, which means that he must not know that the sachet contained some ants, so what does it mean that he put it back?
This Liufu is really "lively", how many people are hidden in the shadows, and how many of them are coming for the ancestral heirlooms left by the Ling family......
Thinking of the Ling family, Ling Qingrui's heart couldn't help but feel a slight pain, so far she has not been able to find out the truth about the death of the Ling family, and give an explanation to the Ling family who passed away suddenly!
Taking a deep breath, Ling Qingrui pressed the slightest pain into her heart, and at this moment, a delicate voice came from afar.
Although the voice was deliberately soft, Ling Qingrui could still hear it, it was Liu Mengxi's voice.
"Your Royal Highness, the father of the courtiers has been in Yunzhou for more than ten years, taking care of the scenery and things of Liufu, although Liufu is not as good as the inner garden of the palace, but it also has a unique artistic conception, such as His Royal Highness does not give up, the courtiers are willing to guide His Highness and enjoy the scenery of Liufu."
Listening to Liu Mengxi, who has always been arrogant, speaking as if pinching her throat at this time, Ling Qingrui's lips couldn't help but slightly hook up a smile.
Chu Xue beside her shrunk her shoulders as if it was very cold, and muttered in a low voice: "I'm used to hearing the usual voice of the eldest lady, the voice at this time is really ugly, and what the eldest lady said is really bad, it makes people feel that the old man doesn't do the right thing every day, just takes care of the courtyard of Liufu." ”
Lowering her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes covered the brilliance in Ling Qingrui's eyes, she knew in her heart that this Liu Mengxi was not Liu Mengyan, and she didn't have her sister's scheming, and she was just pretending to be dignified and gentle in order to please the five princes.
Not wanting to have anything to do with them at all, Ling Qingrui didn't have the slightest intention to pay attention to them.
I vaguely heard Jing Mofeng say in a voice as nice as a drop of water from a clear spring: "Miss, I don't know who lives in this Bixia Pavilion?" ”
"Your Highness, this place has always been barren and there is nothing to see. The courtiers know that His Royal Highness has always loved flowers and plants, but it so happens that there are several pots of very valuable flowers in full bloom in the garden, why don't His Highness move to have a look? ”
Liu Mengxi hurriedly replied, eager to pull the five princes out of here directly, still thinking in his heart that it was really unlucky, how did he get to the residence of this little slut?
Liu Mengxi wandered back and forth near his father's study for several days, and finally met the five princes today, and immediately stepped forward to greet him, and asked with red cheeks if he could bring the five princes to familiarize himself with this Liu Mansion, but who knew that he was politely rejected by the five princes.
Fortunately, Liu Mengxi's eldest maid Cuijin was clever and gave her an idea, pretending to be the old lady's name, so that the five princes could reluctantly agree.
Who knew that the good immortal actually walked to Bixia Pavilion, and at this time, seeing that the five princes actually asked who lived here, as if they were interested in this place, which made Liu Mengxi suddenly feel uncomfortable as if swallowing a few flies, and hurriedly wanted to lead the five princes out of here.
Hearing Liu Mengxi say this, the fifth prince nodded noncommittally, but suddenly pointed to the corner of Bixia Pavilion, a few small flowers that bloomed just right, and said: "The eldest lady said that this place is barren, but I think it is so good, these small flowers are obviously a few purple flowers, which are commonly used medicinal herbs. ”
Where does Liu Mengxi know what medicinal herbs, he nodded indiscriminately at the moment, and at the same time pulled up a smile and praised: "The courtiers have known that His Highness is well-read and strong, and when I saw it today, I realized that it really deserves its reputation, and His Highness even knows medicinal herbs, which really makes the courtiers admire." ”
"The eldest lady praised it falsely."
Jing Mofeng smiled gently, but his footsteps did not pause at all, and he went straight to Bixia Pavilion.
Seeing this, she had already seen Ling Qingrui in Liu Mengxi, who was not far away, and stomped her foot slightly to catch up with Jing Mofeng, she couldn't give Ling Qingrui, that little slut, any chance to cling to the Fifth Prince.
Just by raising his eyes, Liu Mengxi saw Jing Mofeng's clear figure as straight as a pine and cypress, with a light and gentle smile on his face, and the sun shone down, as if he was plated with a layer of soft light, reflecting Jing Mofeng's nobility and elegance.
Liu Mengxi immediately forgot what Liu Mengyan had reminded her before, don't be tempted by the mediocre Five Princes, and looked at Jing Mofeng stupidly, fantasizing that if she could become the Fifth Princess one day and stand side by side with him, she would be willing to die.
Duoduo Hongxia flew onto Liu Mengxi's face, she followed her in a daze, where did she remember the idea of wanting to stop Jing Mofeng from entering Bixia Pavilion, and even Cui Jin, who saw that the situation was wrong, tugged at her sleeve several times without knowing it.
Suddenly, Liu Mengxi felt a slight pain in her arm, but it turned out that Cui Jin pinched her, and she was about to get angry when she suddenly remembered that the fifth prince was still beside her.
Thinking that this was Ling Qingrui's yard, Liu Mengxi couldn't help but feel a slight tightness in his heart, and turned his head to look over, only to see Jing Mofeng going straight to a flower pot, there was only one very ugly unknown broken grass in the flower pot, Liu Mengxi relaxed a little.
It turned out that the fifth prince didn't want to see Ling Qingrui, but wanted to see this broken grass. However, what is there to see about such a broken grass?
Immediately, Liu Mengxi opened his mouth and said, "Your Highness, this ...... The grass is so ugly, there is nothing ornamental, and the courtiers have a crown flower blooming just right at this time, I don't know how Your Highness ......"
Jing Mofeng didn't pay attention to her, but just muttered softly: "Hey, it's really a purple butterfly flower." ”
He saw this purple plant in the pot from a distance outside the courtyard gate, it seemed to be a purple butterfly flower but he was not sure, and now he got closer to confirm that it was really a purple butterfly flower.
Purple butterfly flower is not a particularly rare herb, but it is often overlooked, at this time to see the purple butterfly peanut branches, obviously someone has carefully taken care of it, it seems that the owner of this Bixia Pavilion is likely not only familiar with the habits of purple butterfly flower, but also knows the medicinal value of purple butterfly flower.
Thinking of this, Jing Mofeng's eyes flashed with a sparkling look, and his gaze fell on the woman who was slowly getting off the swing not far away.
The breeze blew through her plain white dress, and the black hair fluttered gently, and with her slowly approaching footsteps, the woman seemed to be a fairy from the painting, except for her slightly pale face.
The gaze met unexpectedly, but it was a touch.
Jing Mofeng lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the purple butterfly flower in the flower pot, but in the next moment, a cold light suddenly erupted in his eyes.
