Chapter 301: An Old Case
Song Qi was stunned, and then looked at herself. I left in a hurry from Qinlou that day, and I didn't bring any luggage, and although I added some in the dart game, most of them were bought by Erniu at the ready-to-wear store, and it was very inappropriate to wear them.
He stroked his sleeve a little crampedly, and said, "It's not good for me to show up now, so as not to burden you." ”
Su Nianxi smiled and shook her head, "This shop is safe, Brother Qi should go." ”
has said that it is rude for Song Qi to refuse again, and he put on a hat and followed Wu Yong into the cloth workshop.
The little monkey who was transferred here early this morning saw the people, smiled and said, "Guest officer, please come with the little one." ”
All the way to the backyard, the little monkey knocked on the door of a side room, bowed to Song Qi again, and then retreated with Wu Yong.
Song Qi had vaguely guessed something, and her heart tightened.
Raise your hand, and before you can knock on the door, the door has been pulled open from the inside.
Standing in front of him was Yang Rong!
His face changed, and he walked up directly, wanting to touch the bruised wound, but he politely lowered the finger he had just raised.
Whispered, "What's wrong with your face?" ”
Yang Rong burst into tears, "Qilang ......"
Outside the cloth shop.
Uncle Fang pulled the carriage and went in the direction of the Guogong Mansion.
Su Nianxi leaned against the side wall, looking at the bustling pedestrians outside the half-hidden window, and the back of her hand suddenly became hot.
Turning his head, he saw Xia Lian's concerned eyes.
She smiled lightly and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Xia Lian clenched her hand and said nothing.
She looked at Xia Lian, and after a moment, she turned her face and looked out of the car.
The sun is scorching, and the carriages and horses are moving slowly.
walked through the backward flow of people, and threw the past Jiangnan at the end where she would never look back.
……
After a rainy day, the weather began to cool down.
This is a sign that autumn is coming, and it also means that the annual summer hunt is about to be held.
However, the summer hunt is a playground for the royal family, and it has nothing to do with ordinary people, and recently, in addition to talking about a few words about the vampire family in the Su family's house being driven out of the Protectorate Mansion by the lord of Ping'an, the most talked about is the polo match that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is going to hold in Furong Garden.
"Have you heard? This Hibiscus Garden is said to be holding a polo match, but in fact, it is to choose a concubine for His Royal Highness the Prince! ”
"Really? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is finally going to choose a concubine? ”
"Didn't you say that the prince cultivates Buddhism and won't marry a wife? Why do you suddenly want to choose a concubine? Don't be, right? ”
"Hey, you are really, if you don't believe it, you don't believe it, why are you so slanderous? Go, go, go! Too lazy to talk to a villain like you! ”
"Phew! If the prince can choose a concubine, I will kneel down for you to recognize your father! ”
"You wait!!"
And at this time, Changle Mansion.
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess looked at Pei Luoyi, who was sitting opposite, with a tiger face, "You stinky boy, take care of the heavens and the earth, and take care of your aunt!" I've been having no fun lately, and I can't do a polo tournament?! ”
Pei Luoyi looked at him helplessly, "Auntie, how did the news of choosing a concubine for me get out?" ”
The eldest princess's heart was empty, and Wushuang next to her smiled and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really misunderstood His Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess only ordered, invite the ladies of all families to come and have a lively time, and somehow it became such a word." ”
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess straightened her back again, "That's it!" I didn't say it! ”
Pei Luoyi sighed lightly, what is the difference between this and directly speaking?
He got up and said, "Auntie, I won't be going on the day of the polo match." ”
“……”
The eldest princess's eyes widened, and she stood up, "You dare not try?!" ”
Pei Luoyi didn't speak, turned his face to look at her calmly.
The eldest princess coughed dryly, and changed her expression seriously, "You have written a note with Ping'an, it's not good to keep delaying people, right?" I'm not offering you a chance to marry! ”
The tips of Pei Luoyi's ears were slightly hot, but he didn't expect that the thing that he signed for a moment of greed would be known by so many people.
Silently glanced away and said, "I have my own arrangements." ”
"How?" The eldest princess came over and asked, "She has a lot of thoughts about you, and I can't bear to look at it." Excuse me? ”
Pei Luoyi has grown so big, and it is the first time that he has been scolded by his aunt like this.
After a moment of silence, he said, "She is still in the filial piety period......"
The eldest princess froze, and immediately said: "You are not young anymore, and you will be seventeen years old after the New Year safely." Although she is in the period of filial piety, my dynasty is also a precedent for marriage after a hundred days of filial piety. ”
As soon as I heard it, I had already inquired.
Pei Luoyi knew that his aunt and aunt had been very anxious about his own family affairs, but he was reluctant to marry in the past, because he hated the kind of desires that made him lose his mind. Now it is for the safety of Nian, and she cannot be easily put in danger of being targeted by everyone.
After a little hesitation, he said, "Auntie, have you ever asked about peace?" ”
The eldest princess blinked, "She likes you so much, why do you need to ask deliberately?" The little girl is thin-skinned, isn't it? ”
“……”
Pei Luoyi knew it for the first time, and he couldn't argue that he was in such a mood.
Do you rejoice in him, little girl?
He remembered that day again, when she said, "I really want to marry His Highness", the affection in his eyes was so ...... Alienation.
Holding the rosary on his wrist, he said, "Auntie go and ask her." ”
The eldest princess pursed her lips, and suddenly looked at him suspiciously, "Could it be that you are worried about her by yourself, it is not good to come to the door, this is for me to find a chance to see her?" ”
Pei Luo paused slightly, but his expression did not rise and fall for a moment, and only said: "I came to disturb my aunt today because of an old case. ”
As soon as the eldest princess heard about the matter, she immediately put on a joking look and nodded, "You say." ”
Pei Luoyi didn't speak, Wushuang smiled, and led the group of servants to retreat.
"Auntie, how much do you remember about the raw silk case six years ago?"
The eldest princess was slightly surprised, she didn't expect her to mention this old story, but she didn't speak, but picked up the teacup.
Pei Luoyi said again: "I remember that my uncle beat people up on Suzaku Street just because my aunt said a few words to Lord Song......
"Ahem, ahem!" The eldest princess choked on a sip of tea, raised her eyes and glared at him, "How old was Lord Song at that time?" Why do you listen to other people's gossip? ”
Pei Luo smiled with a smile in his eyes, looked at his aunt's annoyed and angry appearance, and said, "My nephew is also a mortal. ”
"Everyone wants to marry a wife and have children, do you ask His Royal Highness the Prince, have you married a wife?" The eldest princess was angry and came back.
Pei Luo smiled, shook his head, and asked again: "Auntie, how much do you remember about the raw silk case?" ”
The eldest princess looked at him with a slight expression: "This case has long been closed, why did you suddenly turn it over?" ”
Pei Luo didn't expect the eldest princess to be so cautious about this case, so she guessed that she was only afraid that the implication would be deeper than she wanted, and she wanted to mention Su Nianxi, but she also pressed her mind at this time.
said: "Recently, I was ordered to investigate Su Wenfeng, walked the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, and unintentionally found out that the Su family's house had dealings with the He family in Jinling, Jiangnan, and the raw silk case was provided by the He family. ”
The He family is Su Nianxi's grandfather's house.
He looked at the eldest princess again and said: "After the inspection of the raw silk by the Weaving Division, they were going to go to the canal to send them to the capital, but they didn't want the goods to be burned by a fire in the port, and the He family didn't have time to replenish the goods, and they were going to be fined. ”
His voice was soft, and he spoke without ups and downs, but he went straight to the hearts of the people, making the eldest princess seem to remember all the things back then.
