Volume 1 Floating Life Chapter 39 Cinnabar (5)
Chu Silence cleared his throat and asked: "Chu Silence sees that Master's body is better than a few days ago, why don't you take you down the mountain tomorrow, you haven't been out for many years..."
"No..."As soon as the words came out, he realized his gaffe, and said slowly: "I've been like this in the mountains for so many years, and I don't like to see those worldliness." β
Chu was silent and looked at the empty cup, "Actually, those guards of the emperor can't trap the master at all, and it is the master himself who really traps the master." β
He laughed to himself: "It turns out that you were testing me." β
"The grievances between the master and the emperor, the master doesn't say it, and he doesn't ask about the first death, but that's just to ensure the safety of the master."
Wu Nian looked at him, a little strange flashed in his eyes, he almost forgot that the person in front of him was no longer the obedient young man back then, "It's just the old past, I am willing to be trapped in this square courtyard in order to pay off the debts of the year, and other grievances and grievances have passed for so many years, and I have no intention of saying more." β
Over the years, the emperor has only trapped him in Nanshan, and has not done too much, although Chu Lin still has doubts in his heart, but when he says this, he is not good at exploring anything here.
The next day, Chu Lonely went to the palace school as usual, Jing Tan rarely did not come, and someone came to pass the word after coming down to school, saying that the third princess was sick and sick, and she couldn't come to the palace today.
In fact, she was not sick, but she received a letter from Wang Youjun, saying that she had found the person behind the assassins and wanted her to witness it, so Jing Tan secretly admired Wang Youjun's ability to do things, and at the same time happily changed her clothes and went out of the palace.
Along the way, Jing Tan recalled these days, and had to sigh, feeling that this person guarding the palace gate had really eaten for so many years, since Wang Youjun came back, why did she have to leave the palace so easily? Or did Wang Youjun help her buy off the guards at the palace gate? But this is impossible, without the order of my father, it is impossible for the palace gate to let people in and out without permission... She thought about it for a while, could it be that it was her father's intention? She immediately dispelled this idea, which was more suspenseful than Brother Right Jun buying off the guards.
Because Ah Heng had told him not to leave the palace the night before, she didn't dare to let Ah Heng know when she came out this time, otherwise she could imagine how Ah Heng would persuade her to stop her from coming out if she knew, she just wanted to see which thief it was, and then go back, thinking that it should be fine to go back before dark.
Wang Youjun's address with her is Langxiang Building, fortunately, this place is famous, after leaving the palace, she can find a random person to ask to know the way, but not afraid of getting lost.
After arriving at the Langxiang Building, someone greeted him.
"The third prince is here, Lord Wang has been waiting for a long time."
Jing Tan looked around, except for the shopkeepers standing in a row in the lobby, there was not a single customer, she thought to herself: It seems that Brother Youjun has wrapped up the entire Langxiang Building.
Jing Tan was led into the compartment on the third floor by the little guy, and when she saw her coming, Wang Youjun stood up to greet her, and made a deep gesture: "I've seen the third son." β
Jing Tan said weakly: "Why is Brother Youjun so polite today? β
He was a little embarrassed: "It's a long story...."Before the words fell, a somewhat resentful voice from Wang Youting sounded downstairs.
"Why did the eldest brother invite me to sit in this cage incense building today..."
He went upstairs and saw Jing Tan sitting opposite, and was startled: "You, youβ"
Jing Tan looked at the person, the corner of his mouth was a purple wound, if it weren't for Wang Youjun here, she wasn't sure if this person was Wang Youting, she stood up and waved at him: "I've seen the second son." β
"Why are you here?!"
Wang Youjun coughed dryly with some embarrassment, and shouted: "Right court, don't be rude!" I haven't seen the third princess yet. β
"What! Three princesses? Wang Youting looked her up and down with a shocked face, just like the person who provoked her in Ruyan House that day, no wonder she was a little small, it turned out to be a woman! That's it, it's better to be the third princess Yong'an!
From the moment he came in, she had a little bit of a bottom about the assassins, and that day she offended Wang Youting in the Ruyan Pavilion, which was famous for being a hairy boy, so she sent assassins to seek revenge, and she remembered that the assassins that day called their master 'Gongzi', and now at a glance, it also coincides with Wang Youting.
She sighed silently, the two sons of the Wang family, this right brother is a humble gentleman, how can this second brother have a small belly and hold grudges....but she thought about it, it was also her way of teaching people too much, although he was wrong, he couldn't blame him entirely.
"There were many offences in Ruyanguan that day, and there was a reason for it, I don't know if the second son is still minding."
The right court of the king still couldn't believe it, and said later: "What are you doing as a princess running to the Qinglou?" β
Wang Youjun shouted again: "Presumptuous! β
Jing Tan glanced at Wang Youjun with some embarrassment, that day she only said that she took Aman to the tavern for a drink of two glasses, and now she was pierced by Wang Youting, she was embarrassed to become her, but thinking about the current situation, Wang Youjun should not take care of these.
So Jingtan threw him a serious sentence: "This princess goes to observe the people's feelings." β
Jing Tan obviously saw the corners of his mouth twitch, and he wanted to say something, but his brother kicked him back and staggered.
Wang Youjun said sharply: "How did I teach you when I was at home?" β
Wang Youting seemed to be a little afraid of his brother, although he was reluctant, he still knelt down obediently, "The assassin was sent by Xiaomin, because he was angry that he was humiliated in Ruyanguan that day, and that's why...I just wanted to scare and scare that kid, but I didn't really want to kill someone... Who knew that boy was a princess..."
He hung his head like a child who had made a mistake and was punished for kneeling, who would have thought that he was the same person who was dancing in the Ruyan Restaurant that day.
Jing Tan shook his head and sighed: "Forget it, fortunately, no one was injured, just remember the lesson in the future, my behavior that day was also a little excessive, but I just want to tell the second son a truth that all beings are equal." β
He glanced at Wang Youjun cautiously and whispered, "Xiaomin has been taught." β
Wang Youjun waved at her again: "After my father knew about this, he had already punished him, and he had already admitted his mistakes, princess, rest assured, I will punish him severely when I go back." β
Jing Tan immediately understood what he meant, this matter is just a personal grudge if it is small, and it is a murder of the royal family if it is big, he wants to make a big thing small, and a small matter, originally she sneaked out is a matter that cannot be found, I have long heard that the Wang family loves this little son very much, and it turned out to be a gentleman, fortunately, nothing happened, she should not worry too much, if this matter goes to her father, it will not be good for anyone.
Jing Tan squeezed out a smile: "Since the second son knows that he is wrong, I naturally won't worry too much about the second son." Originally, she just wanted a result, but now that the result is out, whether it is because of the monarch or friendship, she can't do much with it.
What she said was not that she didn't care, but that she didn't care too much, and she wanted Wang Youting to be able to understand it, so it was good to restrain it, otherwise according to his temperament of shouting and shouting and killing, I don't know when he dragged down the Wang family.
Jing Tan looked at the little maid standing at the door, and motioned to Wang Youjun to help her up, wanting to break the embarrassing atmosphere: "They have been standing for a long time, why don't we sit down and enjoy the food together?" β
"Yes, I also prepared a lot of interesting food for the princess." As he spoke, the little guys rushed in.
Jing Tan inadvertently saw a little familiar with a cloth vegetable guy, thought about it carefully, and then said, "Heyβyou are..." He was the guy who drank and talked with her in the building that day, and forgot to ask his name at that time.
Hearing this, the little guy who had been keeping his head down raised his eyes carefully, and then hurriedly knelt down, his voice trembling a little: "The little one knows his mistakes, the little one didn't know that it was the nobleman, and he still pulled the nobleman to drink, the little one was blind, and the noble man spared the little one..."
Seeing this, she was a little at a loss, and reacted and hurriedly said, "You didn't do anything wrong, hurry up." β
Originally, she just wanted to recognize someone, but she didn't expect him to react so much.
Wang Youjun commanded: "Go down." β
Sure enough, the little guy bowed to her and retreated.
Jing Tan couldn't help but think back to what Fang had just said to Wang Youting, in fact, all living beings are not equal, right? So that day, she spoke out to defend Yongxu, and Yongxu took out the most precious wine to be grateful, so she recognized the little guy by saying that the little guy was afraid that she would blame him for being disrespectful and afraid of getting into trouble, so he was busy begging for mercy, why? She's just doing the right thing, why do they think they need a thousand thanks? Or is what she thinks right actually wrong? For some reason, she suddenly thought of Chu Lone, and she thought, maybe Mr. will have the answer to these....
"Your Highness the Princess?"
Jing Tan came back to her senses, and Wang Youjun's shaking big hand appeared in front of her.
"There is already food in front, what is the stay of His Highness?" said, and introduced her to the dishes one by one: "Look, this is the roasted pork skin, this is the Huozan frozen fish head..... and the new ice and snow cold yuanzi..."
"It's mine, it's not." This table was specially set up for her, how could she dismiss the interest of others, so she squeezed out a smile at him and moved her chopsticks.
Because Wang Youjun was worried about Fang Di and Wen Jing who had escaped, he rarely used chopsticks except for constantly serving vegetables to Jingtan. That Wang Youting was a little unhappy because he was forcibly pulled out of the color book on his face, and he was embarrassed to admit his mistake, so he lowered his head and didn't move the chopsticks a few times, and Jing Tan was full of emotion in his heart at this time, facing a table of fragrant dishes, he didn't have much appetite, but he just moved the chopsticks with Wang Youjun. In short, everyone's mind has long since drifted to where it has gone, and this meal is not satisfactory.
After the meal, Wang Youjun was going to send her back to the palace, she only said that she came out with Ah Heng, and then sent him to buy paints, and then returned to the palace with him later, Wang Youjun was worried about the affairs of Yong'an Mansion, so he didn't think much about it, so he only told her two words and watched her leave.
