Chapter 125 Secret Conspiracy
"I hope that He'er can achieve positive results with His Royal Highness the Prince." Taiwei Chu thought silently in his heart, sighed, turned around and went back to the room, no longer thinking about anything else.
After Chu He returned to the room, he began to prepare. After thinking for a while, she summoned her confidant maid: "You go and send someone to inquire about the prince's whereabouts tomorrow." β
"Slave and maid, go now." The henchman and maid responded in a low voice, immediately turned around and left, and acted according to Chu He's orders. Chu He sat alone in the courtyard, anxiously waiting.
After a while, the maid hurriedly came back and reported to Chu He: "Miss, the slave has inquired." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to go boating on the lake tomorrow, and he is preparing for it. β
"It's convenient for me." When Chu He heard this, his eyes lit up slightly: "I will also go to the lake tomorrow, and I can have a chance encounter with His Royal Highness the Prince." β
She had an idea in her heart, and her face showed a little joy, and she instructed the maid again: "You and send someone to prepare boats and other things, and tomorrow I will sail on the lake." β
"Yes." The maid answered, and hurried down to prepare. Chu He waited anxiously.
She had never looked forward to the rising of the sun on the second day so much one day, her heart was nervous and joyful, and she didn't sleep well at night, and what always came to her mind was the "chance encounter" with Shen Huo tomorrow.
The sun shifted little by little, and the stars hung in the night sky. I don't know how long it took, the stars also dimmed, the sky showed a little white, the sun rose, and it was a new day.
On this day, Chu He got up about an hour earlier than before. When she thought that she would be able to meet Shen Huo today, she was very happy in her heart, and she got up very early.
"Quick, help me get dressed." Chu He hurriedly instructed the maid together, and there was a bit of anxiety in his eyes. Seeing Chu He in such a hurry, the maids didn't dare to delay, and they started to prepare one after another.
During this period, Chu He has been nitpicking, always feeling that his eyebrows are not very neat, his blush is not good, and his lipstick is too gaudy. After being picky for a long time, I was satisfied.
She raised her eyes to look at herself in the mirror: her eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her eyes were like autumn water. Clever smile, as beautiful as a hibiscus out of the water. Between a smile and a smile, it becomes an article. Chu He deliberately wore a white dress again, and he was even more like a fairy descending to earth.
Seeing that there was nothing unusual about himself in the mirror, Chu He relieved his heart and said secretly in his heart: "I am dressed so well today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely look at me twice." β
Thinking like this in her heart, she couldn't tolerate the slightest hesitation, and immediately called the maid to go out of the house with her, and went to the lake, thinking about meeting Shen Huo.
The breeze gently floated, blowing the surface of the lake, and the blue waves rippled. Chu He was in this environment, and even his mood was a little more relaxed, with a smile in his eyes.
At this time, the little guy came over and said to Chu He in a low voice: "Miss, the boats are ready, and they are tied to the west of the lake." Would you like to go now? β
"That's it." Chu He bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "Now is a good time to go boating on the lake, if you don't get on the boat at this time, when will you get on it again?" β
After that, she didn't care whether everyone noticed the deep meaning of her words, smiled slightly, and took the lead in lifting her feet and getting on the boat. Seeing Chu He come up, everyone followed him and got on the boat together.
After getting on the boat, Chu He couldn't help but look at it carefully for a moment. I saw that although the ship in front of me was not extremely luxurious, it had a pure and elegant taste. The boat is made of ebony, simple and generous, and the outside is slightly covered with a layer of white light veil, so that people can't see the clues inside the ship, and it looks mysterious.
Chu He lifted the curtain and entered the boat. As soon as I entered, a fresh smell came to my nose. The faint fragrance of lotus is not annoying, but significantly comfortable, which makes people feel relaxed.
The henchman maid on the side looked at Chu He's face with a look that was a little wrong, observed the words, and hurriedly explained: "This incense is made of lotus flowers in this lake, and it has a unique flavor. You want the slave to be solely responsible for this, and the slave and maid are free to assert it. If you don't like it, the slave will have it removed. β
"No need." Chu He smiled slightly, with a faint joy in his eyes. "This fragrance is quiet and elegant, and it is very likable. Just keep it and don't have to take it down. β
With that, she walked straight to the inner chamber of the ship. The maid looked carefully, and saw that Chu He really didn't mean to be displeased, so she put her mind at ease and hurriedly went in behind Chu He.
There was a small room in the inner compartment of the ship, with several cushions made of rattan rope beside it, and a few books on it. Chu He took it out and looked at it carefully, only to see that they were all history books and classics, or poems of predecessors, which was really tight on her taste.
Chu He circled around, and saw that although the boat was not big, it was complete, and his heart was full of satisfaction. She smiled and said to the maid, "You have set up this boat well, and you will go and receive the reward when you return home." β
"Thank you, Miss!" When the maid heard Chu He's words, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly responded respectfully, and her tone was full of gratitude. Looking at her like this, Chu He only smiled slightly, sat in the cabin, and looked out the window.
ββOutside the window, there is still a rippling blue scene. The ripples gradually spread, and it was a flat boat rowing in the distance. There was a man standing in front of the boat, quite a bit of spirit, dressed in a dark shirt, his hair tied up high, revealing a smooth forehead and a beautiful face. Who else could this be Shen Huo?
Seeing that Shen Huo was really here, Chu He's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly instructed the little servant: "Do you see the boat in the distance?" And row quickly to the side of the boat. β
Halfway through her sentence, she came to an abrupt end. The little guy was a little puzzled, wondering why Chu He suddenly stopped talking, and hurriedly looked up.
I saw that Chu He's expression was a little stunned, staring straight into the distance. The little guy followed Chu He's gaze and looked out, only to see Shen Huo standing at the bow of the boat, his eyes calm. There was also a woman next to him, dressed in aqua blue, with a bit of wisdom and gentleness between her eyebrows.
"This is not His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and He ......" The little guy was a little shocked for a while, and couldn't help but say what he thought in his heart. The maid on the side saw that Chu He's expression was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward to cover his mouth, not telling him to continue.
And by the startled shout of the little guy, Chu He finally came back to his senses. She looked in the direction in the distance, and there was a bit of color in her eyes.
Even if the little guy doesn't say it, Chu He can see it clearly: it is clear from a distance that Chu He and He are standing side by side. Although the two were not in the same boat, the two boats went hand in hand. The two snuggled up to each other across the thin lake, which was quite a match made in heaven.
"That position should be mine, how can she take it?" Chu He looked fiercely at the direction in which He Suoyi was standing, and the anger in his chest was surging unquellable. She was really angry, and in a flash of thought, she came up with a vicious idea.
She turned around and instructed the little servant: "The one standing on the side of the bow in front of you is Miss He Fu, can you see it clearly?" β
He Suoyi can also be regarded as a figure with a head and a face in Beijing, and the little guy naturally knows it. Then he said to Chu He: "Miss Hefu, the little one naturally knows it." But I don't know how the young lady mentioned her? β
Chu He ignored the little guy's question, and only smiled slightly, with a somewhat hideous meaning: "How many people with good water nature are there on this boat?" β
Chu He laughed a little frightened, but the little guy was entangled for a moment, and finally decided to answer honestly: "Miss, the little one is a little watery." In addition, there are about four or five people on the boat, and the water is also good. β
"Good." Chu Yan smiled slightly, but it was only gloomy and made people feel a little uncomfortable, "You go and send a few people down to overturn this boat for me." Remember that it is Miss Hefu's ship, don't make a mistake. β
"Why does Mademoiselle want to capsize that ship?" Listening to Chu He's instructions, the little guy looked a little hesitant and was reluctant to do it.
Looking at him like this, Chu He was even more angry in his heart, and glared at the little guy fiercely, with a thick look of displeasure and displeasure in his eyes: "I told you to go, you just go, there is so much nonsense there?" β
Seeing Chu He's fierce appearance, the little guy was a little afraid, so he had to respond to Chu He's order and go to prepare to overturn the boat on which He relied on.
Seeing that the little guy was about to go, Chu He hurriedly instructed carefully: "Remember to be careful, and lurked in the water to lift the boat, and didn't dare to let people notice the slightest clue." β
"Yes." The little guy respectfully agreed, and immediately got off the boat with a few good water-based ones, and ran in the direction of He Suoyi. Chu He carefully looked at the ripples on the water surface that gradually expanded to that place, and a few traces of color flashed in his eyes.
She silently thought in her heart: "He Zhiyi, you didn't expect it." You wanted to show this style in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, but after all, you were like a clown jumping off the beam. β
What she didn't know was that today's event was that Shen Huo took the initiative to meet and come to the lake together. It's just that Chu He only ordered his subordinates to inquire about Shen Huo's news, so he didn't figure out the whole story.
After the flower-viewing banquet, He Suoyi walked out alone, but was stopped by Shen Huo. She stopped slightly, turned around and asked Shen Huo, "His Royal Highness the Prince, what's wrong?" β
This time, it was like a glimpse, which made Shen Huo's heart move. He tried his best to suppress the throbbing in his heart, and then said, "That's right. If you're okay the next day, would you like to go on a boat with me on the lake? β
After that, Shen Huo's face flushed with a few hints of red, and he was a little embarrassed. He Suoyi was slightly stunned after hearing this, and then showed a smile, and said a little shyly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made an appointment, and the courtiers are willing to go." β
So the matter was decided, and this is the scene where the two are boating together on the lake today. It's just that Chu He didn't know anything about it.
She only ordered the little servant to go forward and prepare to overturn the ship on which He depended, and there was a sense of imperative in her eyes. Thinking that Shen Huo was still on the side, if she stood here stunned, she would probably let people find out.
