Chapter 90 Moon Shadow in the Pool, Chang'e Palace
Chapter 90 Moon Shadow in the Pool, Guigong Chang'e
Mr. Dou took the waiter to Leng's old house. After knocking on the door, Mr. Dou's heart pounded uncontrollably.
As soon as the door opened, the familiar petite figure appeared in front of Mr. Dou.
Leng Xuanrong still looked haggard and didn't seem to have a good rest. She frowned and opened the door. I could see that she had been thinking about something difficult just now.
Mr. Dou opened his mouth but couldn't think of anything to say. Leng Xuanrong was also a little surprised to see that it was Mr. Dou standing outside the door.
Leng Xuanrong was entangled for a while after he came back from the last time, but after all, there were more important things to face, so Leng Xuanrong didn't keep thinking about it. Now seeing Mr. Dou standing in front of the door with an embarrassed face, Leng Xuanrong actually had a pain in his heart.
"Mr. Dou, why are you here? Please come in..." Leng Xuanrong lowered her head and whispered while inviting Mr. Dou into the yard.
Mr. Dou and the waiter were invited to the room by Leng Xuanrong. Mr. Dou went to see Leng Chengqi first as before. After chatting for a few words, he withdrew from Leng Chengqi's room and sat around the table with Leng Xuanrong.
"Miss Xuanrong... You are haggard again..." Mr. Dou said sadly.
Leng Xuanrong looked up at Mr. Dou and sighed in his heart, why not you? It's just that Leng Xuanrong knew that the two were worried about something slightly different. Mr. Dou must have been worried about what happened that day. The more he knew this, the deeper the pain Leng Xuanrong felt.
At this time, Leng Xuanrong found that she really liked Mr. Dou. It's not the feelings of men and women, not the feeling of wanting to stay together for life, but the feeling of standing far away but being able to communicate with each other. It would be great if this kind of affection could last.
Leng Xuanrong thought so in his heart that he couldn't help smiling bitterly and chanted softly, "The moonlight in the pool is as beautiful, the Chang'e in the Toad Palace is gorgeous, the insects under the eaves are singing quietly, and stroking the piano and drinking wine to wipe the haze."
Mr. Dou listened to Leng Xuanrong's mouth as a poem. At first, he was surprised and tasted it carefully. He stood up, bowed deeply to Leng Xuanrong, and then looked at Leng Xuanrong and whispered, "Miss Xuanrong is worthy of being Mr. Leng's daughter. Four poems can break the truth of the world. Dou sighed. In the future, if Miss Xuanrong is willing, how about we become friends who recite poetry, read poetry and practice painting?
Mr. Dou said this, which was much beyond Leng Xuanrong's expectation. The four poems just now were actually said by her inadvertently, but when she recalled them, she couldn't help laughing.
"I made a fool of myself in front of Mr. Dou." Leng Xuanrong's face turned a little red. She looked at Mr. Dou gratefully, got up and saluted, "Mr. Meng will not give up. Please give me some advice in the future."
Leng Xuanrong inadvertently ** his heart, and Mr. Dou also accepted it calmly. The two smiled at each other and understood each other's feelings.
After unlocking the previous heart knot, Mr. Dou whispered to Leng Xuanrong that this time he actually received the order from the prince Du Yilin.
When Leng Xuanrong heard that Du Yilin wanted to see herself, she couldn't help but thump.
She has thought about everything in her mind in the past few days, and she feels that at this time, in addition to her, only Du Yilin is the most likely to become the person with the most information. Whether it was to He Lijing or Liang Qiurong, even Leng Xuanrong recalled that Du Yilin went to catch the big money who killed Li Duen. It is very likely that Du Yilin inferred something from Li Duen.
Although Li Duen seems to be cautious about that matter, in fact, if you think about it carefully, you may not be able to guess any clues. This matter may be a little difficult for others, but Leng Xuanrong knows very well how smart and meticulous Du Yilin is.
"Mr. Dou, why did the prince want to see me at this time?" Leng Xuanrong remained calm and frowned and looked very worried. "As the prince said, now Lord He, the governor of Wuming County, is in Yanyan County. If my whereabouts are found by him, it will be easy to involve my father..."
At this time, Mr. Dou found that he was thinking about how to face Leng Xuanrong before going out, but he did not ask Du Yilin why he wanted to see Leng Xuanrong. However, he still comforted, "The prince came up with an idea." With that, he pointed to the waiter beside him, told Leng Xuanrong the idea given by Du Yilin, and then asked the waiter to take out the dress and give it to Leng Xuanrong.
Leng Xuanrong looked at the clothes and Mr. Dou. Knowing that Mr. Dou would not deliberately hide anything from her, Leng Xuanrong had to go back to her room with her clothes to change into this waiter's costume.
While changing clothes, Leng Xuanrong thought that the worst situation now is that their father and daughter's identity is exposed. How can they avoid this and how they can deal with Du Yilin? Leng Xuanrong has no bottom in her heart.
After changing their clothes, the two left the waiter to serve Leng Chengqi, and then they left Leng's old house one by one.
Nyan County recently gathered a very big prince in the imperial court and the county magistrate of Wuming County. This situation is unprecedented in Quyan County. Even the old storytellers on the street know that this is a sign before the storm.
Although the shops on the street are still doing business as usual, there are much fewer people coming and going.
The government officials in the county government office were also stunned by Liang Qiurong, and there were no people patrolling on the street on weekdays.
Mr. Dou and Leng Xuanrong walked for a while, and Mr. Dou suddenly stopped Leng Xuanrong.
"Miss Xuanrong, shall we go to Taolin to have a look?" Mr. Dou asked.
Only then did Leng Xuanrong remember that Du Yilin's idea was to let the two of them go somewhere else, so she nodded happily and followed Mr. Dou to Taolin.
The peach forest is already a vibrant green. Looking around, you can also see the round green peaches hidden in the leaves.
The two walked slowly, and Mr. Dou suddenly opened his mouth and whispered, "In Yan County is a good place. Surrounded by mountains and rivers, people's lives are also rich. If you can live here all the time and continue to open this study and teach people to read and write, it will be leisurely..."
Leng Xuanrong turned his head and looked at Mr. Dou. Seeing that he was sighing, Leng Xuanrong shook his head, "Mr. Dou, you are talented and benevolent. You should serve the court and benefit the people. It's natural to live in this Yan County, but it's just a pity that it has drowned out your talent.
Mr. Dou smiled bitterly, "I think that my teachers are all over the world, but in the end I only want to live in seclusion in the mountains and no longer compete with the world. It's good to serve the court, but just like an official path, I'm afraid I can't help it. If you do something good with this talent, you can sleep peacefully, but if you make a mistake, you are afraid that you will regret it for the rest of your life.
Leng Xuanrong heard Mr. Dou's words and suddenly remembered that his father seemed to have said that Mr. Dou's master, Zhang Chengmu, a famous scholar of the previous dynasty, seemed to have made up his mind to live in seclusion because of something, but he didn't know what it was. If Mr. Dou's words are pointed out, I'm afraid he is talking about the bitterness in the heart of the famous man of the previous dynasty.
Leng Xuanrong is not a person who doesn't know how to advance or retreat. Although she was a little curious, she didn't ask much. Instead, she changed the topic and asked Mr. Dou, "Mr. Dou sighed this. Is it possible that he is leaving Niyan County?"
Mr. Dou sighed again when he heard the words. He stopped, looked at Leng Xuanrong, and whispered, "Miss Xuanrong, can you see it? I'm afraid something will happen in this Yan County recently. Alas... Even if nothing happens, I probably can't stay here for a long time..."
"Mr. Dou... Are you going back to the imperial city..." Leng Xuanrong said this, and his expression was a little lonely.
Mr. Dou nodded and remembered something. He said to Leng Xuanrong, "Miss Xuanrong, the prince once promised me one thing. When this place is a little calmer, I will ask the prince to buy a shop for your father and daughter. At that time, your father and daughter will hide their names and run the store. With the prince's name, you can also be safe.
Before, Mr. Dou and the prince bet with Mr. Liang San. Although Mr. Dou lost in the end, since he had such a word, Mr. Dou knew that the prince would not refute his face. What's more, the prince promised Leng Xuanrong to protect the lives of their father and daughter. In this way, Leng Xuanrong and the others would be safe.
Leng Xuanrong did not expect that Mr. Dou would imagine so well for their father and daughter, but even if Mr. Dou had such good intentions, Leng Xuanrong also knew that in the days he said, their father and daughter could not have it at all.
The wind and rain in Nayan County hasn't arrived yet. When the things here are really over, maybe the world will turn upside down and maybe they will die.
Leng Xuanrong looked at Mr. Dou and really wanted to tell him now what happened around him, what was happening, and what would happen in the future.
Fortunately, Leng Xuanrong tried to recall the memory of her previous life. In her previous life, she did not have a chance to see Mr. Dou, but when she heard Mr. Dou's name several times, it seemed to be accompanied by incomparable respect.
Mr. Dou will probably not be involved in any danger. Leng Xuanrong prayed that at least this should be the same as in his previous life.
The quiet atmosphere in the peach forest seems to make people more sad. Both of them noticed it and accelerated their pace to leave the peach forest.
After a while, they carefully returned to the dyeing studio.
The study was still full of solemn atmosphere. After Mr. Dou asked someone to tell him, Du Yilin's personal guards came to send a message, saying that the prince only wanted to see Leng Xuanrong.
Mr. Dou comforted Leng Xuanrong and went to the back study.
Leng Xuanrong followed the guard alone to the door of Du Yilin's house. He got the consent and pushed the door in. Leng Xuanrong saw Du Yilin, who was furious with his eyebrows locked at the table at a glance.
Du Yilin stretched his expression when he heard the sound of closing the door. He looked up and saw Leng Xuanrong, and immediately smiled very kindly.
He put down his hand and waved to Leng Xuanrong.
Leng Xuanrong felt a little cold behind her back. She thought to herself that the prince was indeed a difficult guy to mess with. If she didn't pay attention to the change of expression at this moment, she would not notice anything strange at all.
Thinking of this, Leng Xuanrong became more vigilant.
