Chapter 278: The Knife Hanging Overhead
The air in the courtyard is not too good, it is early spring, and even the wind is vigorous.
Han Rui looked at the list handed over by Rouge, and a wave of anger rampaged through his chest.
"How can it be that the things of the Moben Palace have been so rampant. ”
"Not only that, but a lot of the precious and good materials here have been turned into cheap cotton. ”
Rouge handed over another piece of paper.
Han Rui took it and looked even more angry, "How many haven't been counted?"
Rouge gasped: "At today's progress, it will take at least a few more days." ”
"How many days?"
She muttered a word and looked out the window.
But the slave and maid couldn't sit still when they looked at Mr. Zhang, he was now an ant on a hot pot, and was circling around the house, and even in the afternoon he handed out the wind and wanted to see the slave and maid. ”
Han Rui pushed back a few pieces of paper in his hand: "This matter is fully handed over to you, check it out carefully." ”
Rouge went down.
As soon as she left, someone immediately came in through the window, it was a handmaid with a raw face, wearing the uniform clothes of the handmaidens in the other courtyard, and there was no groveling in her eyes, but all unruly.
She stood respectfully behind Han Rui: "Princess Leng Yue, the slave maid is ordered to protect you. ”
She is a peony person, specially arranged.
Han Rui nodded: "Okay, then the safety of the palace will be entrusted to you, I'm afraid that the enemy is not far away." ”
I don't know if the pocket I specially arranged this time can let those mysterious people get in willingly.
"Rest assured, princess. ”
Leng Yue is obviously also used to serving people, made the bed, and asked the maids to bring hot water to serve Han Rui to bathe, and wiped her hair with a dry handkerchief, Han Rui's head hung on the side of the bed, so that her hair hung down naturally, so that Leng Yue could wipe it, and there was no match to talk.
"How long have you been following the county lord?"
"My subordinates have been following the county lord for ten years, I was sold into Tianxianglou by my father when I was eight years old, it was the county lord who sent me to learn art, and later let me choose whether to follow her or find a good family to marry, but I didn't want to marry, so I stayed with the county lord. ”
"Hmm. ”
Let his father sell into the Qinglou, this kind of thing is only common in ancient times, and even in modern times, this kind of thing is not uncommon, and he sold his daughter for a high bride price.
I don't know if it's the sadness of women or the sadness of the times.
"The county lord is a wonderful man. ”
"Yes, my subordinates think so too, and I hope to be by the county lord's side all the time. ”
The master and servant were talking with each other, and when Rouge came in, he was stunned for a moment when he saw Leng Yue.
"Hello Sister Rouge, I'm Leng Yue, and I'm serving by the county lord's side. ”
Leng Yue knew how to be polite, and stepped forward to salute first.
Han Rui didn't intend to hide the rouge, and motioned for her to take a few steps closer: "You just have to take a high-profile inventory of the objects in this courtyard, but in fact, the people in the capital who killed Cheng Shirou and the King of Han have quietly followed, I don't know when to do it, tell you, you have to stabilize your gods, don't tell anyone, this matter has been arranged by the county lord and Qingshan, it will be foolproof, you must remember, don't show your feet, I don't know how many people in this courtyard can be trusted." ”
"Yes. ”
Rouge didn't expect that it was just a normal trip, but it was wrapped in these secrets, which made her nervous immediately, and she didn't dare to relax at all.
She accompanied Han Rui to encounter danger many times, and when danger came again, she instinctively hoped that Han Rui was safe.
She stepped forward and grabbed Leng Yue's hand, "Good sister, the safety of the eldest princess will be entrusted to you." ”
Leng Yue gave her a blessing, "This is what I should do, Sister Rouge doesn't have to care, it still has to be the same as usual so as not to make people suspicious." ”
Everything is going on in an orderly manner in secret.
Han Rui couldn't sleep at night, Chang Shan was still on his way to Jiangzhou, and Ling Xin hadn't sent a message for a long time.
Because I was worried that those mysterious people would suddenly counterattack, the string in my brain was always tight, and I didn't feel sleepy all night.
It wasn't until the next morning that the rooster crowed loudly and crisply, and Rouge came in to serve her to freshen up, and Leng Yue left quietly.
At night, the cold moon appeared ghostly again, and the next morning, she would quietly leave again.
Nervous and short-lived pleasure, several girls get together to play leaf cards and visit the garden of this courtyard during the day, spring flowers bloom everywhere, and beautiful scenery is everywhere.
Maybe it was because she was far away from the cage in the capital, and several people jumped up, especially Jiang Ting, her depression dissipated a lot, and her face was full of happy smiles.
There is a pear tree in Han Rui's yard, and the petals on it are luxuriant at the moment, and the flowers are small and fragrant.
A few people were drinking tea under the tree and enjoying the scenery, Rouge took people to count their belongings, Jiang Ting and Qi Yuan were talking about something, their eyes were full of smiles.
Han Rui got up, Peony immediately followed, her eyes were not red, light red, snow white was Rui yellow, light pink Han Rui stopped, picked a peach blossom beside her, the petals were dense, and she casually inserted her in the peony's hair, took a few steps back and looked at it, and clapped her hands with satisfaction: "Because of the affairs of the court, let you also follow the rush, but I haven't seen you smile for a long time." ”
Peony helped the peach blossom between her sideburns, "Why did the eldest princess suddenly say such polite words, aren't these all what I should do?"
Obviously, he took advantage of a lot of money, and the title of county lord alone is very valuable.
Not to mention the rewards in the palace.
"I didn't sleep all night last night, as if I had a knife hanging over my head, but I didn't know when it fell. ”
"Why don't you wait and rest for a while?"
Han Rui's complexion is indeed very bad.
"No, I hope they come up tonight, or I won't be able to sleep tonight. ”
"The princess doesn't have to worry, even if she really comes, she won't be able to get to the princess, it's all arranged, if the princess is so worried, won't they always be able to sleep well?"
It's impossible to predict when someone else will do it.
"Maybe it won't be so worrying tonight. ”
She comforted herself.
"Leng Yue, this kid doesn't like to talk much, if there is anything inconsiderate, please forgive the princess. ”
"It's good, it's very much to my liking, I want to keep her by my side all the time, but I don't know if you are willing to cut your love?"
If there is a woman with excellent skills by your side, you will not be so passive in an emergency.
"How could I refuse when the eldest princess opened her mouth, that is also the blessing of Leng Yue's child. ”
That night, Han Rui really slept very early, and Leng Yue was meditating on the edge of the bed, but she closed her eyes and said that there was no movement outside.
In the general's mansion, Ling Xin wrote hard, and Acacia jumped on the paper, with an urgent heart, but after writing, he folded the letter paper, and then threw it into the candle flame, watching the candle flame suddenly become brighter, and then gradually fell silent.
"Master Hou, what's the matter?"
