Chapter 138: Water Prison
Leng Yue'er looked at some people standing in front of her, and she was very helpless. Two cooks can cook, Ping An can run errands, and four older ones can pass on experience, what can these three ordinary-looking girls do? And how does the mother arrange it?
"Well, I'm especially happy for you. Because you have made the wisest choice of your life. I'm proud of you. From now on, I will be your new boss, Leng Yue'er. Leng Yue'er stood on the chair, and after speaking, she felt that she was very temperamental, but it was a pity that she didn't wear a stylish dress today, otherwise she would be more stylish.
"Everyone applauded." Murong Qingli took the lead and applauded. When the crowd saw this, they hurriedly applauded.
Leng Yue'er was very happy to see this. It seems that his speech still has a certain appeal. Leng Yue'er jumped down from her chair.
"Everyone, do whatever you have to do. Mom, you take me around the Spring Breeze Pavilion. ”
"Yes."
"Miss, you've finished reading here. Let's go to the backyard. ”
"Nope. Let's go upstairs first. "This Spring Breeze Pavilion is no different from other green buildings. Downstairs is the place to watch the guests, and upstairs is the attic. To put it bluntly, it's the room.
"Yes."
Mom led everyone upstairs. Leng Yue'er entered a room closest to the staircase. Looking at the furnishings in the room, red, pink, it's cheesy. Leng Yue'er glanced at the table and touched the dust with her hand. Leng Yue'er frowned. Murong Qingli took out the handkerchief from her arms and wiped her hands clean. Leng Yue'er glanced at her mother, and her mother lowered her head embarrassedly.
"Has it been a long time since no one has come to the Spring Breeze Pavilion?"
"Not really. There will be one or two people. Mom smiled awkwardly at Leng Yue'er.
"Let's go to the backyard."
"Yes."
There's really nothing in the backyard, it's just where the girls live. Looking at the backyard is quite big and overgrown with weeds, it looks like no one has taken care of it for a long time. The backyard is connected to a bridge in front, and under the bridge is a lake, Leng Yue'er felt a little better when she saw this. Guests can stand on the bridge and enjoy a fish. After crossing the bridge, they came to the girls' quarters. There are many houses, and the decoration inside is very good, and the carving of the building is very exquisite, which reveals the former glory of Chunfeng Pavilion. The crowd had almost turned inside and out, and returned to the main hall. I haven't looked at this hall carefully since I came in. Looking closely now, Leng Yue'er was really surprised. The main hall is very wide, and Leng Yue'er feels a little lonely when she looks at it. There is a large circular platform in the middle, and the platform is surrounded by a staircase with a red carpet. Looks like it's supposed to be a place for girls to perform. Directly above the platform is a large chandelier carved from sandalwood, which has been buried in the dust. There are four large pillars of rosewood in the main hall, which are located in the four directions of southeast, east and west, and the four pillars are carved with beautiful scenery such as clouds, flowers and fog. The carving is very exquisite. The four pillars were covered with cloud ribbons, which were now covered with dust. It looks very shabby. The table is surrounded by long tables and chairs arranged in different places, all of which are made of fine huanghuali. The walls of the main hall were covered with all kinds of gauze, and the sharp-eyed Leng Yue'er found that there seemed to be something hanging on the gauze, which had been taken off. It must be a valuable object, so the people here can buy it. To sum up, Leng Yue'er is still very satisfied.
"Not bad. Renovation will begin in a few days. ”
"Yes."
"I'll go back first. I'll come back to you in a few days. If you have anything urgent, go to the Seven Kings' Mansion to find him. Leng Yue'er pointed at Murong Qingli.
"Yes."
Leng Yue'er took the deed from her mother and left with everyone.
"Mom, aren't you afraid that this little girl will lie to you?" After Leng Yue'er and the others left, Aunt Qing came over.
"I'm afraid. But there is no way, this is our only chance. Mom glanced at Aunt Qing.
"Don't live in the attic upstairs, go back to your lodgings. The attic is going to pick up someone. Mom left with that.
"Got it." Aunt Qing stretched. Go back to bed. Really, a lot of grades are still tossed.
"Yue'er, Shangguan Yi didn't know that you were going to open a green building." From the moment she asked her mother to find him for something, he guessed that this girl didn't tell Shangguan Yi.
"Do you think he'll agree?" Leng Yue'er glanced at him helplessly.
"No, it won't." Murong Qingli looked at her amusedly.
"Not only will it not, but it will block it."
"Since you've already bought the Spring Breeze Pavilion, why don't you strike while the iron is hot and start renovating it now?"
"Not right now. Uncle Shangguan hired a master for me, and I still have to study. Leng Yue'er said weakly.
"You learn." Murong Qingli smiled unkindly. Leng Yue'er knew it would be like this. A roll of the eyes passed, and did not speak.
"Mo Han, do you know why the prince is laughing. Let me tell you, my young lady wants to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Do you think it's possible? The little girl laughed unkindly.
"Unlikely." Mo Han really felt that Leng Yue'er couldn't learn.
"yes."
"Did you two ever think I'd hear it." Leng Yue'er turned her head and glared at the two. This little girl is really trying to please her boyfriend, and she even makes fun of her own lady. Sure enough, I forgot Miss when I had a boyfriend. White-eyed wolf.
"The princess is not strange, she is unintentional."
"You're protecting her." Leng Yue'er looked at him funny. It seems that the little girl has succeeded.
The little girl looked at Mo Han very happily when she heard Leng Yue'er say this.
"It's not." Mo Han was a little embarrassed.
Seeing that Mo Han's face finally changed, Leng Yue'er was happy in her heart. It seems that there is definitely a drama between him and the little girl.
The little girl was a little disappointed when she heard this, but it was only a matter of a moment, and a sweet smile appeared on her face again.
Leng Yue'er glanced at Mo Han and ignored him anymore. The mouth is the heart. This kind of man is the worst, hurting both himself and others. If you like someone, you have to say it, a big man is not as good as a little girl, this female doll.
Girl, Mo Han will definitely be a little overwhelmed when facing love for the first time. If the girl doesn't have a good impression of Mo Han, she may suffer in the end. Murong Qingli felt that it was necessary for him to maintain the relationship between his wife and his subordinates.
In this way, it's not the first time you've faced love. Leng Yue'er narrowed her eyes and looked at Murong Qingli.
Misunderstand. I'm just smarter than Mohan. Stealing chickens is not a recipe for rice.
Cut, I'm a fool if I believe the words of someone who's lived for an unknown amount of time. Leng Yue'er pursed her lips and quickened her pace. Distance yourself from Murong Qingli.
Murong Qingli glanced back at Mo Han aggrievedly. Mo Han was stunned.
"Yue'er, where are we going next?" Medusa looked up at the sun in the sky, it was almost noon.
"If you're hungry, go eat."
"Do you want to go back to Shangguan's Mansion to eat?"
"No, I don't. The rule in Shangguan's Mansion is that breakfast and dinner are eaten together. Lunch to figure out by yourself. ”
"Hmm." There are really a lot of rules in the Shangguan Mansion. Good family discipline.
"So, where are we going to eat?"
"Seven Kings' Mansion."
Leng Yue'er and a few people stood at the door of the Seven Kings' Mansion.
"Why did you come to my house for dinner?" Murong Qingli looked at Leng Yue'er teasingly. Isn't this girl angry with herself and ignoring herself?
"The food in your house is delicious." Leng Yue'er said with a serious face.
"Let's go inside." Murong Qingli sneered.
"Hello princess." As soon as she walked to the door, Leng Yue'er was shocked and squeezed her eyes. Murong Qingli and the others were also taken aback.
"Hello." Leng Yue'er glanced at the two of them calmly. He walked in very calmly. The crowd hurried in.
Leng Yue'er walked to the kitchen familiarly.
"Hello Miss." The people in the kitchen were very excited to see Leng Yue'er's appearance.
"Did you miss me?" Leng Yue'er asked playfully.
"How could you not want to. Yesterday I heard that the young lady was back, but these ingredients were prepared last night. ”
"Master Qiao is reliable."
"Miss, I'm hungry."
"Uh-huh."
"Wait, let's start cooking."
"Master Qiao, I want to eat chicken rice balls, spicy cabbage, yellow stewed pig's trotters, and glutinous rice cakes."
"The chicken is already in the pot." After Leng Yue'er finished speaking, everyone in the kitchen laughed.
"Yue'er used to live in the palace for a while. During this time, she had a good time with the people in the kitchen. Murong Qingli and a few people were waiting outside the door. Listening to the voice coming from inside, Murong Qingli explained with some embarrassment.
After hearing this, Medusa's face was full of black lines.
"Let's go." Leng Yue'er was very happy to come out of the kitchen.
"Medusa, little girl, chrysanthemum, do you know that the best in the Seven Kings' Mansion is the food in this mansion. The food cooked by Chef Qiao is first-class, and it is better than the chefs in the restaurant. Leng Yue'er didn't let her mouth rest for a while on the way she walked.
looked at Leng Yue'er's thumbs up. The three laughed.
"Yue'er, is the food he cooked so delicious?"
"Uh-huh. Really delicious. You don't know how much I miss Master Qiao's cooking after leaving the palace. Leng Yue'er felt very sorry for her mouth and stomach when she remembered that she hadn't eaten for more than a month, and the food cooked by Master Qiao was very sorry.
"Master Murong, you must keep this Master Qiao. Otherwise, this girl may find another place to live with him for food. Medusa quipped.
"Rest assured. Master Qiao, I will definitely keep it. ”
"Hey, you guys, just make fun of me. People like you just don't know the benefits of eating. Leng Yue'er looked at everyone's teasing smiles and said indifferently.
"Miss, I only know that eating can gain weight."
"Ju, are you serious?" Leng Yue'er rolled her eyes. Hey, I blame myself for being too nice to them. One by one, they all climbed on their heads.
The crowd laughed again. Mo Han also smiled slightly.
"Mo Han, you smiled." The little girl becomes a nymphomaniac in a second.
When everyone heard the little girl's shout, they all looked at Mo Han. Mo Han was instantly embarrassed.
"Don't look, Mohan is mine." The little girl made a domineering announcement. In an instant, everyone was amused again. Mo Han looked at her blankly. Leng Yue'er looked at the expression on Mo Han's face, and suddenly felt that maybe only a little girl in this world could move him. The little girl is not pretentious directly, and if she likes a person, she will say it out loud and let everyone in the world know. It's against a guy like Mo Han with facial paralysis.
"Little girl, what if I rob Mo Han with you?" Leng Yue'er looked at the little girl funny.
"Miss, no."
"How do you know. Recently, I suddenly found myself in love with Mohan. What do you say? ”
"Miss, are you serious?" The little girl's face showed an expression of wanting to cry.
"Hmm. Earnest. Particularly serious. Leng Yue'er looked at her with a smile and nodded.
"Miss, Mo Han." The little girl looked at Leng Yue'er and then at Mo Han, and tears came down.
"Princess, please don't make fun of her."
"It's distressing." Leng Yue'er laughed.
"Miss, you." The little girl reacted and looked at Leng Yue'er with sobs.
"You, you think everyone thinks he's a treasure." Leng Yue'er wiped the tears from her face. "Don't cry. He, no one will rob you. He glanced at Mo Han.
"Miss, you're going to make fun of me." The little girl said and reached out to beat Leng Yue'er. Leng Yue'er smiled and hid behind Medusa.
"But, little girl, it's useful for you to cry. Don't you see someone has relented? Leng Yue'er then quipped.
"Miss, you see I can let you go today." The little girl attacked Leng Yue'er. Leng Yue'er hurriedly ran away.
"Come, come. Come here. ”
"Miss, you wait."
Looking at Leng Yue'er and the little girl who were playing, everyone couldn't stop laughing.
On the dinner table.
Leng Yue'er honestly sat on the chair and waited for the meal to be served.
"Murong Gongzi, how has Nangong Ling's matter been resolved?"
"That's right. Murong Qingli, did that prime minister sue me in Murong Jingtian's case? "Leng Yue'er thinks about it, and there is still this matter. If Medusa hadn't asked, she would have forgotten about it.
"It's not a lawsuit against you. It's a lawsuit against me. Murong Qingli smiled coldly.
"Sue you?" Leng Yue'er was stunned.
"Here's how it went."
"Your Majesty, you have to make decisions for the old ministers." Nangong Qingshan knelt on the ground.
"The prime minister wants to make the decision for you alone."
"Yesterday, the little girl was beaten in a jewelry store."
"Who is so bold as to dare to beat the prime minister's daughter?" What is this old fox going to do? Murong Jingtian's eyes narrowed.
"Go back to the emperor. It is the person of the Seven Princes. ”
"Li'er." Murong Jingtian looked at Murong Qingli. Murong Qingli glanced at the person in the seat a little helplessly.
"Prime Minister, tell me what happened."
"Yes. Yesterday, Lao Chen's two daughters and the people of the Seven Princes had a quarrel in the jewelry store, and the eldest daughter of the Lao Chen took the initiative to apologize to her in order to calm things down, and also for the sake of me and the face of the Seven Princes. My poor second daughter still has a wound on her face. ”
"Father, my ninth brother and I were here when this happened, and we can all testify for the prime minister." Murong Qingyun spoke.
Murong Qingyan glanced at Murong Qingyun in a daze. Why did the third brother mention me.
"Prime Minister, this matter is a small matter, why do you bother to make such a fuss about this matter to the court." Murong Qingyan looked at him dissatisfied.
"The Nine Princes' words are wrong. This is no small thing. Not to mention that it was my daughter who was beaten. Just say that this person is the person of the Seventh Prince, she is so arrogant and domineering, and she does evil, and those who don't know still think that the Seventh Prince gave her this right. I brought up this matter in this court, not only to seek justice for my daughter, but more importantly, I want all civil and military officials to remember that if the person next to me is not managed well, something big will happen. As courtiers, our backyard is quiet, and we can serve the emperor wholeheartedly. ”
"The prime minister's implication is that my father must give you an explanation today, right?" Murong Qingli looked at him amusedly.
"Not to give me an explanation. It is a warning to civil and military officials. ”
Murong Qingli sneered in his heart. Having said all this, don't you still want to be punished?
"Li'er, you didn't discipline the people around you effectively, and the daughter of the prime minister who harmed was hurt. I now order you to go down to the court, and take your concubines to the prime minister's mansion to apologize. Until the second lady forgives the concubine for the mistake she made. And from today, you will be confined to your home for a month. As for your concubine, let it go. ”
"Yes. Father. ”
"Murong Jingtian doesn't know it's me, right?"
"I don't know."
"Apologies, grounding, you didn't do anything." Leng Yue'er looked at him funny. Concubine, what do they think of her Leng Yue'er? Is she the kind of person who can be a concubine? also asked Murong Qingli to take a break from her, and he tried.
"And divorce my wife, I haven't done it yet." Murong Qingli looked at her teasingly, but she got a roll of her eyes.
"Then, how are you going to solve this matter of Murong Gongzi?" Medusa was a little worried.
"Not resolved." Murong Qingli said indifferently.
"This. Your Majesty. ”
"He's suspicious by nature and more protective. The prime minister sued his son in court for a trivial matter, which made him lose face. The prime minister asked him to punish me under the pretext of giving an explanation to the hundred officials, and he was already unhappy in his heart. If the prime minister forces him again, it will only cause him to be suspicious and alienated. This is not good for Nangong Qingshan. So Nangong Pingshan won't look for that person again. As long as he doesn't look for that person, everything is fine. Murong Qingli spoke eloquently, and Leng Yue'er and Medusa's hearts also relaxed.
"The dish is here." Leng Yue'er smelled the fragrance wafting in the air and shouted loudly.
"No, I don't." The little girl turned her head to look at the door, but she didn't see anyone.
"Wait. One, two, three. ”
"Lord, the princess's meal is ready." Master Qiao's voice sounded at the door.
"Master Qiao, if you come too late, I will be starved to death."
"There's a prince here, no." Chef Qiao put all the food on the table. Look at her funny.
"Master Qiao, do me a favor." Leng Yue'er picked up a piece of glutinous rice cake with her hand and ate it.
"Princess, you say."
"You help me call Xiaolan Xiaocui over to Bai." Leng Yue'er took a big bite of the glutinous rice cake in her mouth. Exceptionally tasty. Sweet but not greasy, full of fragrance.
"Okay, I'll go." Master Qiao was very happy to see Leng Yue'er eating so happily, and he was also very happy in his heart. As a chef, the happiest thing is watching people eat their own food cleanly. That's an affirmation of yourself.
"Thank you, Master Qiao."
"The princess is polite."
"Girl, slow down, no one is robbing you." Murong Qingli poured a glass of water for Leng Yue'er.
"Uh-huh. Eat quickly. Leng Yue'er watched everyone look at her, and she didn't feel embarrassed, so she picked up a quick glutinous rice cake again.
"Let's hurry up and move our chopsticks, otherwise we may not be able to eat for a while." Murong Qingli looked at Leng Yue'er gobbling up and shook her head helplessly.
"Yes."
After a while, Xiaolan and Xiaocui came over.
"Miss, you're finally back." Xiaolan, Xiaocui was very happy to see Leng Yue'er.
"Come on, sit down and eat." Leng Yue'er pointed to the empty seat opposite her and asked them to sit down quickly.
Xiaolan and Xiaocui didn't dare to sit down until they saw Murong Qingli nodding.
"Eat, hurry up and eat." Leng Yue'er looked at the people at this table and suddenly remembered to eat the table. It's really like that.
After an hour passed, everyone had already put down their chopsticks and looked at Leng Yue'er, who was still gnawing on the pig's trotters.
"Wait a minute, the last trotter." Leng Yue'er picked up the pig's trotters and gnawed them with relish. Others just watched quietly, and there was nothing surprising about it, after all, there were many such scenes.
Leng Yue'er finished gnawing the last pig's trotter, and saw that there was really nothing to eat on the table, so she stopped.
"Xiaolan go and bring a basin of water and let your young lady wash her hands." Murong Qingli looked at Leng Yue'er with disgust, the corners of her mouth were red. That's the color of the miso placed in the pig's trotters.
"Yes."
"Yue'er, wipe the side of your mouth." Medusa handed her her handkerchief.
"Hmm." Leng Yue'er took the handkerchief, wiped it casually, and returned the handkerchief to Medusa.
Medusa looked at the discolored handkerchief, which still had shiny oil on it. Medusa didn't want to take it.
"You can keep it." Medusa smiled awkwardly.
"Okay." Leng Yue'er wiped her mouth with it again. The crowd was silent.
"Here comes the water." Xiaolan came over with a basin of water.
"Yue'er, hurry up and wash up."
"Miss, hurry up and wash up."
"Girl, go wash up." Several people said at the same time.
"Hmm." Leng Yue'er nodded cutely, stood up, and washed her hands.
"Hey, satisfied." Leng Yue'er sat on the swing in the garden, her face full of enjoyment.
"Miss, the flowers here are very beautiful, you can come and have a look." The little girl shouted loudly at Leng Yue'er among the flowers.
Leng Yue'er waved at her.
Looking at Xiao Lan Xiaocui beside the little girl, Leng Yue'er was speechless, the kung fu of a meal was so good.
"Yue'er, why hasn't Murong Gongzi come yet?"
"He probably hasn't finished his business yet." After eating, Leng Yue'er proposed to come to the garden to play, and everyone agreed. Murong Qingli was originally going to come, but it didn't happen because of something. Before leaving, he said that he would come back soon, but why hasn't he come back after so long.
"Medusa, Ju, you guys are playing here first, and I'll go find Murong Qingli."
"Yes."
After Leng Yue'er came out of the garden, looking at the huge palace, Leng Yue'er didn't know where to look for it for a while. Leng Yue'er rubbed her head, could it be that place. Leng Yue'er slapped her head violently. Hurried towards that place. That place was a water prison, which Leng Yue'er had accidentally discovered. However, she didn't dare to go in and have a look, because she was timid.
Leng Yue'er arrived at the back of a rockery, and when she saw that the door of the rockery was indeed open, she knew that her guess was not wrong. Leng Yue'er looked inside, but didn't see anything, so she decided to go in.
