Chapter 18: Farce (2)
In the yard.
Xu is because there is a special person to clean, the surroundings are neat, but because they have not lived, it is very deserted, this situation, the eyes are full of confusion, and I can't help asking: "Miss is going to take something, both go and get ......"
Su Qianqian walked into the hall slowly and replied casually: "Actually, there is nothing to take." ”
Both were puzzled: "That young lady is going to a lot of trouble to ......"
Su Qianqian sat lightly on a large chair carved with bamboo leaves wrapped around plum branches, put one hand on the armrest, a pair of beautiful eyes blinked lightly, and said, "It's a lot of trouble, of course I'll judge you." ”
Shuangshuang looked shocked: "Interrogate me? Miss, I'm ......"
Before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Su Qianqian cleanly: "Shuangshuang, our master and servant have been for more than ten years, do you think you can hide it from me?" ”
Shuangshuang's surprised expression slowly calmed down a lot, and he knelt down suddenly, bowing his head to the ground, but he didn't deny it: "Miss Shuangshuang is smart, but Shuangshuang has a clear conscience." ”
Seeing that she didn't quibble, Su Qianqian's anger in her heart dropped slightly, and she said lightly: "Say, when did it start?" ”
Both of them are lying on the ground, explaining carefully.
Shuangshuang's father is the right-hand man of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Mansion that has been advancing for more than ten years is actually under the order of the former Empress and stares at Prime Minister Su Cheng. Later, the first queen passed away and the monarch ascended the throne, and the people who remained naturally continued to serve His Majesty.
But although Shuangshuang's father said that he was used by His Majesty, he had stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion all these years, and under what he saw and heard, he was already convinced by Prime Minister Su Cheng, and felt that he was virtuous, so he informed Prime Minister Su Cheng of his identity.
He thought that he would be suspicious, but he didn't expect that instead of being harsh, Prime Minister Su ordered him to act as before.
Over the years, her father and daughter have passed on some useless or beneficial news to the palace, but they have also learned a lot about the palace first.
After Shuangshuang said, he bowed down and said, "The slave is already very careful, miss, how do you see it?" ”
Su Qianqian didn't want to beat around the bush, so she tilted her head and said: "Since there are many clues, after I married into the Hengwang Mansion, my correspondence with my father has been kept very well, why was it found in the house?" There is also the news that the monarch is seriously ill this time, but you already know about it before the letter has been opened. ”
"That was indeed intentional by the slave maid, because my uncle was suspicious of you, and sent Miss Qin Yue to monitor it. In order to dispel his doubts, the slave maid used this method, if you are a spy, how can such an important letter be placed in the open place? Moreover, even if your uncle is suspicious of you, he will pursue it privately, and then he will find out about your correspondence with Su Xiang, as well as the post station that Su Xiang specially built to communicate with you. If you touch the melon, you can return your innocence! As for the faith...... As the young lady said, I knew the news. Shuangshuang thought of the situation that day, his round little face changed slightly, and he flattened his mouth and said: "Although there is no judgment on the master's move, it is really difficult to quibble, Miss wants to be punished, both of them admit it, but they are not by Miss's side in the future, you must take care of your body......"
Before she finished speaking, she heard Su Qianqian push her impatiently and said, "Don't act like you want to explain what happened after you, Miss Ben said that she was going to drive you away?" ”
Shuangshuang raised his head in surprise, his round little face was still with a string of tears, and asked in a trembling voice, "Really...... Really ......"
Su Qianqian glanced at her: "How could my father let an unreliable person accompany me to Xiqi?" I expose you because I have something for you to do. ”
Shuangshuang suddenly burst into tears and laughed, grabbed his sleeves and wiped his eyes vigorously: "I'm scared to death, I thought Miss didn't want me anymore, Miss has something to do, just tell me!" ”
Su Xianxian threw a handkerchief to her: "Wipe away your tears and do the right thing!" ”
Shuangshuang didn't have any reason, waited for the order, and immediately patted his chest and swore that he would complete the task.
……
By the time the deployment was completed, it had been a few days, and in a blink of an eye, it was time for the banquet of the monarch of Tanglin.
The waning moon was hazy, the sky was full of frost, and the huge palace was hidden in a silvery white, only the flickering palace lights slowly moved along the graceful verandah, dotting the cold night.
The palace lantern passed over several halls, and then went to the place where the banquet was held tonight, and the originally cold scenery immediately became noisy.
Hundreds of palace lamps surround the main hall, reflecting the surrounding as bright as day, and the inconspicuous places in the hall are set up with charcoal stoves, and the heat is warm in the hall.
Halfway through the banquet, the monarch of Tanglin had to lean on the dragon chair, supporting his emaciated body, looking ahead with half-open eyes, and occasionally saying a word or two to the queen and the little prince beside him, and he was already out of breath.
Su Qianqian saw everything in her eyes, her eyes were full of worry, and when Ye Heng on her side saw this, she turned sideways with a calm expression, and whispered in her ear: "Relax." ”
Su Qianqian smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid that if I am negligent, it will not be good." ”
Ye Heng raised his hand, gently brushed the hair that was attached to her eyes, and pursed a faint smile on his thin lips: "I said, I am here." ”
The sound of a clear mountain stream slipped into her ears, as if it turned into a reassuring pill, stabilizing Su Qianqian's anxious heart, she raised her head, her little face flushed with worry and heat showed a smile, and nodded lightly: "I believe you." ”
Ye Heng's eyes darkened, and his big palm clasped her hand.
The scene of the two looking at each other affectionately had already attracted the attention of everyone in the hall, and all kinds of eyes passed over the people in the hall and fell straight on them.
Among them, there was the jealous eyes of the county lord of Mingyang.
She retracted her gaze hatefully, stood up with a kind smile and said: "Your Majesty, Mingyang has recently been newly named the Jade Horizontal Flute, Mingyang has been practicing hard for many days, and wants to play a song "Canghai Tide" to celebrate Sister Su's great joy.
After that, the maid beside her offered the flute.
This flute is emerald green and has an excellent texture, and you can tell at a glance that it is made of fine jadeite.
The monarch of Tanglin nodded appreciatively, approved her invitation, and his eyes crossed over from the crowd and fell on Su Qianqian: "This flute reminds me of my youth, when Qianqian was still young, and she could close her eyes and dance as soon as I played "Canghai Tide". ”
Before Su Qianqian could respond, Cao Rusi had already stepped forward to ask: "Your Majesty, the courtiers are willing to dance." ”
The monarch of Tanglin set his eyes on Su Qianqian, his tone was aggravated, and he said in a commanding tone: "You can dance with Qianqian, she also skipped "Canghai Tide", I want to see her dance." ”
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar. The discord between the left and right is a well-known thing, and now His Majesty actually wants the Cao family to match the Su family, which is really surprising, and they have speculated that His Majesty has figured it out and decided to be in harmony with Su Xiang, so he made this move?
Su Qianqian turned a blind eye to the voice in the field, she also heard the meaning of the Tanglin monarch and no longer refused, answered yes, and looked at Cao Rusi and said, "It's just this accompanying dance......"
Cao Rusi was about to speak, and Mingyang on one side immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Sister Cao is a dance idiot, you can know a thing or two about the dance in the world, Sister Su don't worry." ”
