After holding the lamp in the evening, Lu Yuan had dinner, picked up a copy of "Analects" and sat under the glass lamp to look at it. After looking at it for a while, he felt a little thirsty, so he called out: "Caiping, pour a cup of Lu'an tea." ”

Lu Yuan has always been accustomed to calling Biluo, Chunhua and others, but this time she directly called Caiping, which surprised Caiping, and hurriedly cleaned her hands and took the pot in.

After pouring the tea, when she looked up and saw Lu Yuan looking at her steadily, she was slightly surprised in her heart, and said with a smile: "Why does the master look at the slave and maid like this, is there something dirty on the slave's face?" ”

Lu Yuan put down the scroll and said with a smile: "Caiping, you have been on an errand by my side for four years, right?" ”

Caiping was a little surprised, and said busily: "The master remembers well, and it will be four years by the end of the year." ”

"What do you think of my treatment of you?"

Caiping said: "The master treats his subordinates the most relaxed, never scolds at dusk, and gives us better food and clothing than other palace people." ”

Lu Yuan's eyes flashed, and his tone slowly increased, and he said, "Since I treat you well, then why do you still eat inside and outside and secretly report to the queen?" ”

Caiping was shocked, and couldn't help but kneel on the ground with a plop, fine beads of sweat poured out from his forehead, like a multi-legged fine worm, burr thorns crawled through, and said weakly: "Master, the slave and maid don't have it." ”

Lu Yuan snorted coldly: "If you don't, how would the queen mother know that I sewed and mended clothes for Imperial Doctor Jiang?" ”

The color screen distinguished: "Master, not only the slave and maid know about yesterday's incident, but also a few little girls have also seen it, why do you think that it is the letter reported by the slave and maid, but you know that it is not them?" ”

Lu Yuan picked up the silver scissors and cut the candles on the Panhua candlestick, and the firelight flickered and danced twice.

She said leisurely: "If I am not completely sure, how can I be unscrupulous, since I say so, I will not wronged you, I see that you do not cry when you don't see the coffin." ”

She slammed the silver scissors on the table and said, "Take off your shoes and look at the soles of your shoes to see if there's anything different." ”

Caiping was full of suspicion, so she had to sit on the ground, take off her shoes and check it, but she didn't find anything unusual, and then raised her head and looked at Lu Yuan with questioning eyes.

"Take a closer look, is there silver powder sticking to the soles of your shoes?"

The color screen turned over the soles of the shoes and looked carefully, and sure enough, she saw a lot of silver powder stuck to the soles, which emitted a faint cold light under the illumination of the candle flame, and she seemed to have a premonition of something, and her face slowly became pale.

Lu Yuan continued: "I asked Xiao Lianzi to follow you, and found that you often go to the queen's palace without permission, because I was afraid that you would not admit it, so I ordered him to scatter a lot of silver powder around the gate of Kunyi Palace, and the silver powder was not conspicuous on the snow, so you didn't notice, so there was a lot of sticking on your shoes." Say! What do you do at the Queen's Palace? Lu Yuan suddenly changed color and shouted.

Caiping cried bitterly, kowtowing like pounding garlic: "The master spared the slave and the maid, the queen promised the slave and the maid a lot of silver, so that the slave and the maid paid attention to the mother's actions, and reported to her from time to time. ”

Lu Yuan gathered his forehead and said unhurriedly: "The most important thing to be a slave is loyalty, if you don't focus on your master, you only think about the crooked ways next to you, this head is unstable!" ”

Cai Ping suddenly sat down on the ground, so frightened that she couldn't speak.

"However, I don't want your life, but I can't keep you by my side anymore, now let you live, and go to the miscellaneous room to do some chores!"

Caiping put away her tears, kowtowed a few times, and left with a thousand thanks.

Three days later, the emperor made a decree to give marriage, and Lu Yuan rushed to organize it for Chunhua, and everyone in Jingxi Palace was busy and happy for a while.

Jiang Rong made a special trip to Chengming Hall to thank the Holy Grace, and prepared a rich dowry and sent it to Jingxi Palace, which was twice as much as the ceremony.

Jiang Rong often goes in and out of Jingxi Palace, most of the time Chunhua is waiting by the side, and is very familiar with Chunhua's characters and character.

Lu Yuan took Chunhua's hand and watched the palace people fill the hall with things one by one, all kinds of silk and satin, clothes and jewelry, porcelain and antiques, and gold and jade.

Lu Yuan smiled, leaned into Chunhua's ear and said, "Now you can rest assured, right?" If Lord Jiang was unwilling, how could he buy so many dowries. ”

Chunhua's face was flushed, and she only smiled and bowed her head silently.

Lu Yuan casually picked up a red gold silk from the piled up jewelry box and shook it with a begonia flower, put it on the sideburns for Chunhua, and said with a soft smile: "Master Jiang and my brother came out in the same year, and now my brother's nephew is five or six years old, but he has not married a wife for many years, and he has not even accepted a concubine, which is enough to show that he values love and righteousness, cherishes feelings, and is willing to win the heart of one person. ”

"This is all what the master fought for the slave and the maid, and the slave and the maid have such a destination, and their life is enough." Chunhua sighed.

Lu Yuan smiled and quipped: "It's not too late to say this when you and Master Jiang are full of children and grandchildren." ”

Chunhua pouted and said, "The master is used to joking, and people talk to you from the bottom of their hearts." ”

Lu Yuan reached out to cover her mouth: "I have already recognized you as a righteous sister, when will the title of this master be changed." Chunhua herself laughed, her eyes full of happiness.

In the blink of an eye, the day of the wedding came, and Jingxi Palace had been busy up and down for a few days, and everything was ready.

Outside the hall, everywhere is decorated with dazzling red and gold, even the hanging warm curtain is also twisted with red gold hook curtains, decorated with cherry red tassels, the window is pasted with the glow shadow veil of "apricot blossom rain", and the desolate scenery outside is also shrouded in a layer of light apricot rain, warm and stretched, a joyful atmosphere.

Early in the morning, Chunhua got up and began to dress up, silver-inlaid gems and jasper with butterfly patterns, and the broken jade beads between the buns flashed a little warm brilliance, inside was a smoky shirt with light purple petal orchid embroidery, and the body was draped in a water-red thorn and gold trimmed robe, and the long hem of the clothes dragged on the matsutake carpet.

Lu Yuan stood behind her and praised her: "What a beautiful bride." A flush flew on Chunhua's face, and she lowered her head and smiled.

There was a commotion outside, but it was Ming Qing, who had already been married, who walked in happily, holding a little boy about two years old in his hand, carved in pink and jade, very cute.

Chunhua stood up, her eyes were red, and her voice was choked: "Why are you here?" ”

Mingqing held her hand tightly and said with a smile: "Today is your big day, of course I am coming, the master sent a carriage to pick me up early in the morning, Chunhua, now you are also getting married, I am really happy." As he spoke, he took out an embroidered handkerchief and wiped his eyes.

The sisters didn't have time to catch up, so a grandmother came over and put a fiery red hijab on Chunhua's head, and a lively drum music sounded outside the hall.

"Presumably the person who picked up the relatives came, you and I will come to Japan for a long time, and we will talk about it another day." Ming Qing smiled and walked out of the hall with her.

Outside the hall, the incense car BMW, the Zhuping canopy, the brocade shirt and colorful clothes, the drum music is noisy, so lively.

When the auspicious time came, Lu Yuan and Ming Qing personally helped Chunhua to the carriage, holding hands and looking at each other, choking in tears.

The carriage and horses slowly went away, the sound of drums echoed, Lu Yuan and Ming Qing returned to the hall, the former master and servant talked for a long time, until the sun forced Xishan, Lu Yuan sent a carriage, reluctantly sent her away.
