Chapter 48: Masterminds and Accomplices
"Why do you look at me like that?" Su Junning blinked, as if he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he said, and added, "Don't tell me that you are a righteous gentleman and won't do such a thing, if it's true, then you just don't say it." ”
Looking at the little girl's unreasonable and strong appearance, Shen Qianwei had a moment of suspicion that if she didn't unite with her, she seemed to be a sinner.
But it's not so easy to get him to make a move.
"Let me help you, what's the benefit?" Shen Qianwei raised her chin and looked at the girl in front of her with a playful expression.
Su Junning was not afraid, her red lips were slightly hooked, and she smiled coquettishly, "Is it okay to invite my brother to dinner?" ”
This brother really almost hooked Shen Qianwei's soul, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
It's going to die, no wonder you can't take a woman with you when you march to war, and charm the hearts of the army!
Shen Qianwei complained in his heart, while trying his best to suppress his mood and not let his ears get hot.
He took out two iron marbles from the purse on his waist and turned his back.
"Words count, don't deny it."
After this sentence came out, Su Junning saw that his wrists and fingers flicked hard.
The eunuch standing behind the four princes bent his legs weakly, and the whole person rushed forward, and there was no guardrail on the plank road, so he directly pushed the four princes out.
"Ahh
Only a man's scream could be heard, followed by the muffled sound of a heavy object falling into the water.
"Oh, Your Highness, Your Highness, come on, the Fourth Highness has fallen into the water!"
The eunuch who knelt on the ground couldn't care about himself, so he crawled over and stretched out his hand to catch the four princes on the plank road.
Furong Terrace held a banquet today, and there were guards nearby, and when they heard the movement, they hurried over.
And Shen Qianwei also made an anxious appearance, and walked quickly onto the plank road to catch people.
It's just that he is not sincere, so his arms are dangling, which is to make the four princes unable to catch it, and after the four princes choked on a lot of water, he saw that it was about to sink, so he dragged the person and dragged him up.
When the guards arrived, they saw Shen Qianwei panting exhausted, sitting on the ground, his clothes were also wet, and next to him were the four princes lying on the ground vomiting, and the eunuch with an anxious face.
"His Royal Highness fell into the lotus pond and choked a lot of water, so he quickly helped him down to rest, and asked the imperial doctor to come and take a look." Su Junning walked over with her skirt in small steps, also looking worried.
The guards did not suspect him, so they quickly helped the four princes up and took them away, and the eunuch trotted to report to Emperor Jianning and the empress.
The crowd dispersed, and only two people remained.
Only then did Shen Qianwei put away his exhaustion, stood up, wrung the water in his clothes, and looked at the girl in front of him and asked.
"Fourth Miss said she wanted to invite me to dinner, where and when?"
"Huh? Did I say that? Su Junning lightly covered her red lips with her hands, making a look of surprise.
Shen Qianwei glared, "Why didn't you say it, you just said it, I'll put it..."
"Put what?"
Su Junning was like a little fox, with a bit of cunning in her peach eyes, tilting her head to look at Shen Qianwei, smiling.
"I'm the mastermind, Shen Gongzi is an accomplice, the two of us are now in the same boat, Shen Gongzi won't want to threaten me with this, maybe it's useless!"
Looking at her ghost elf appearance, Shen Qianwei wanted to laugh angrily, gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Okay, okay, I'm being used as a gun by you today, don't have a next time!"
Seeing that he was angry, Su Juning suddenly burst out laughing, pinching the handkerchief to half-hide his delicate face, the flowers and branches of the smile trembled, and he opened his mouth with charming eyes.
"Oh, why is Shen Gongzi still angry, people are laughing with you, this meal must be eaten, just three days later, in Yipinju, at the end of the time, see you or leave, okay?"
Shen Qianwei's heart became more and more angry when she was amused, and she said in her heart that this little girl was so angry.
It's angry, and you still have to eat.
So he snorted heavily, "Then you can prepare the silver, don't order too much good wine and good food when the master arrives, you can't afford to pay for the meal!" ”
"Don't worry, since I'm in a treat, I'll definitely entertain Shen Gongzi." Su Junning pursed her lips.
Then I saw Shen Qianwei flick her sleeves and walk past her in the direction of going back.
Su Junning smiled happily, and after a distance of about ten steps, he also followed him and slowly walked towards Furong Terrace.
The two of them entered the Furong Terrace Hall one after the other, and saw that the people in the hall were almost full again, but they did not see the figures of Emperor Jianning and the Empress on the main seat.
"Ning'er."
Su Yuhui's voice came from behind.
Turning his head, he saw him and Su Yu'an hurriedly coming in from outside.
From the entrance of the hall, he pulled Su Junning aside.
"What's the matter, how did I hear that the fall of the fourth prince into the water has something to do with you? The emperor and the queen went to the side hall to see the four princes, are you okay? Su Yuhui said with concern.
Su Junning shook his head, "Big brother, don't worry, I'm fine, the fourth prince falling into the water is indeed related to me, I walked by the pool with the four princes and Shen Gongzi, and the fourth prince accidentally fell into the pool in order to pick lotus flowers for me." ”
Upon hearing this, both brothers changed their faces.
"How good is this, if the emperor and the queen blame later..."Su Yu'an stopped talking again.
Su Yuhui was calmer, "Did the fourth prince himself want to pick flowers for you, or did you let him go?" ”
Sure enough, the eldest brother is more thoughtful.
Su Junning smiled, "Naturally, he took the initiative to go, and Shen Gongzi can testify." ”
"Then it should be fine." Su Yuhui bowed slightly, "The fourth prince was already disliked by the emperor because of his good womanhood, and today he took the initiative to pick flowers to please you, but he fell into the pool and smiled generously, which is a loss of face for the royal family, and the emperor will definitely not ask." ”
"But the queen mother has intended to embarrass Ning'er today, will she take the opportunity to do anything?" Su Yu'an said worriedly.
Su Junning shook her head, "Third brother, don't worry, if the emperor doesn't ask, the queen will definitely not hold on, although she wants to make things difficult for me, but today Xu Sini has already lost her honor in front of the emperor, she doesn't dare to make more trouble, which is not good for her." ”
Although it was to vent his anger, Su Junning would not rashly attack the prince in the palace, and he also analyzed the situation in his heart first to make sure that he would not hurt himself, so he did so.
The three brothers and sisters exchanged news outside, and then entered the temple together.
After sitting down, Su Zhiyi also vaguely asked a few words about the four princes, Su Juning answered briefly, she knew that nothing would happen, so she didn't ask any more.
However, Su Junning found that something was wrong with Su Zhiyi.
"Why did the second sister change her clothes?"
"It's nothing, I accidentally got dirty, so I went to change it." Su Zhiyi narrowed his eyes and covered his thoughts.
As for how it got dirty, she didn't say, and Su Juning didn't ask, just lowered her head and drank tea.
Because of this, he happened to miss the few people who had just come in from outside the hall, and King Jin's eyes stayed on Su Zhiyi's body for a while.
I just don't know if Su Zhiyi has noticed it, anyway, she has been hanging her eyes.
Not long after, the queen came back alone, and there was no figure of Emperor Jianning by her side.
It seems that Emperor Jianning was angry or disturbed by the four princes, so he left directly, Su Junning guessed silently.
And as she expected, although the queen looked at her a few more times, she didn't mention anything related to the fourth prince falling into the water after all, so she revealed it in a daze.
