Chapter 34 Spring heart is so cute that I can't stand it anymore
Returning to the palace of the King of Chu, he was already Shen Zheng. Because of his mouth, he was deprived of his entourage and had no chance to witness the legendary five talented and beautiful Su's five-niang. The young man's clear sky was like an eggplant beaten by frost all day. As soon as he saw the prince coming towards him, he walked forward dejected and reported the king of Chu's instructions.
"The prince asked you to go to the study first after you come back."
Yu looked at the clear sky and slightly tilted the corners of his lips. Between his eyes, he saw Huidu standing not far away, so he sent the clear sky and only let Huidu accompany him.
On the way, Huidu reported the investigation: "Sure enough, someone is inscruting about the details of the shopkeeper Hu, who is the head of Song of the Duke of Wei."
Obviously, this has long been expected by Yu Yu.
"In this way, I probably know what Yinqi has done, and the truth that she threw herself into the well." As if muttering to himself, Yu Yu slowed down his pace.
"Since I noticed Chunlailou, Yin Jian must have told Mother Song that someone was checking her details behind her back." Huidu also thought of this.
"It's wavering and people's hearts are insufficient. On the one hand, Yin Cai wants to seek wealth from us, and on the other hand, she does not give up fighting for the pity of Uncle Su's cousin. She wants to be a favorite concubine of a rich family. She must have threatened Song and let her help her. Unexpectedly, Song is a cruel person and naturally will not give others, so she dealt with her verbally. , but he set a trap in the dark and killed people. Yu Ruo has something to think about.
"However, the only clue of Yinjiao's death is also broken. No matter how difficult it is to find out what entanglement there is between the Song family and Yinjiao's family, Yinjiao pinched Song's amazing handle, and even his incompetence is silenced." Huidu was a little depressed.
"Someone is looking for their own way to die, what can we do, but after this matter, at least one thing has been confirmed that the Song family is indeed a little strange, and the means are fierce, and it is not completely without gain." Yu Yu comforted him indifferently.
In fact, there are more inferences in his heart.
The Tian couple, a tenant farmer, should not have anything to do with the Song family, but over the past few years, the Song family has been secretly taking care of the family. The Song family will never be a kind person who is weak and pitiful. This shows that the couple surnamed Tian must have done something important for the Song family.
But what can a farmer do without power or wealth?
There is no reason, and Yu Yu is also deeply confused.
I only noticed one detail - the eldest son of the Tian family died when he was seven years old, and it was in the same year that Song passed into the Duke of the country. After a while, Mother Song thought it was an adopted son, and Hui Du also inquired about it. It seemed that it was after the son of the Tian family died that the Song family's " care" for the Tian family was not so frequent.
And the young son happens to be the same age as Song Yi!
When Tian's son died, Yin Ying had not yet been born. According to reason, even if there was any hidden situation, Yin Ying should not have known it.
Maybe it was because of this that Song was at first assured that the silver was in the government.
But Yinpin clearly knows something, otherwise he dares not go to the spring building and ask for wealth with the secret affairs of the Song family.
The only possibility is that after Song's "indebted" care, the couple surnamed Tian gradually became dissatisfied, or often complained in front of their daughter, or told their daughter about Song's secret in case.
Thinking about this, the couple surnamed Tian died confusedly, not necessarily because of any illness.
Yu Yu boldly inferred that the first son of the Tian family, who died, was actually the adopted son of the Song family, the chief of the Duke of Wei.
But for the sake of such a person, Song didn't even hesitate to kill people?
For decades, Song has been serving close to the eldest princess. She should not have the opportunity to hide it from everyone and give birth to any illegitimate children. So what identity is this Song spoke made Song pay so much attention to.
Even if the silver key is dead, there is actually a way to prove this hypothesis...
Yu Yu thought silently and suddenly stopped and called Huidu to get close to an order.
At first, Huidu was confused and didn't seem to understand Yu's meaning. After thinking for a while, his expression became more and more doubtful. However, his temperament, which had always been ordered not to ask, still made him resist the doubts in his mouth and only decisively agreed.
We talked all the way, and in less than a moment, we arrived at the study of the king of Chu.
Seeing the prince, the two maidservants quietly hit the curtain. Since the death of Princess Chu, the king of Chu has often lived in the study. The maidservants around him are honest and silent.
Yu Yu entered and saw at a glance that the king of Chu was dressed in a dark blue robe, with his hands behind his back, standing in front of the window, and the setting sun was gradually moving west. It shone on his temples. The silk of silver and white could not be hidden. He was not old, his hair was green, and his back facing the sky looked so lonely.
Yu Yu's heart was slightly sour and bowed, "Father."
The thoughts of the long journey seemed to turn back leisurely. The king of Chu turned around and looked at the son of Yushu Linfeng in front of him. The eyebrows of his dead wife flew by with astringent tears and disappeared quickly.
When the father and son sat down, a maidservant held hot tea.
"Have you ever seen Aunt Su today?" The king of Chu asked.
After watching yesterday's conversation, my father still did not give up his intention to marry the Duke of Wei.
Yu Yu lowered his eyes slightly, hiding his obscure emotions: "My son has made it clear to his aunt that he does not want to involve Chen's sister in danger."
After a long silence, the king of Chu sighed: "If you don't want to, it's useless to force your father, but you are 16 years old, and the marriage can't be delayed too long, especially when you 'healed'... I really can't imagine who is more suitable than Aunt Su."
"But there is no hidden worry. The son doesn't want his future wife to live in danger." Although Yu Yu's voice is calm, his attitude is very firm.
The king of Chu was stunned and thought that if it hadn't been for his negligence, the princess would not have been poisoned. If she had been more determined and completely refused to take a concubine, maybe Jiang would not have grudge and be used by others.
A sharp pain, like someone's palm, clenching his heart tightly.
So, he reversed the topic stiffly: "I know that Wei Yuan is indeed outstanding and ambitious. He is your best friends and trustworthy, but he is a scribe after all. Ninghai's situation is quite dangerous, and I don't know if he can cope with it."
"My father doesn't know that Brother Wei is still proficient in criminal law and a cautious and meticulous person. It is most appropriate for him to secretly investigate the Ninghai case. He has long been known as a prodigal son. The world knows that he is free and unrestrained, and no one will guard against his trip to Ninghai. Besides, my father has arranged Tianchawei to secretly protect him and assist him from the side. I believe Wei Brother will definitely live up to his mission. Yu Yu obviously had great trust in his brother's ability, so he was recommended to serve as the secret order of the overall situation.
The father and son analyzed and discussed the current situation of Ninghai. Unconsciously, it was the time when the sky was full of rosy. Thinking that his son had returned home and had not yet gone to greet the old princess, the king of Chu ended the conversation.
When Yu came out of the study, he saw the blue wall and blue trees and flowers, all wrapped in the bright smoke. A gust of wind made the begonias in the wall red.
Seeing the falling red float in the air and go over the wall with the wind, Yu Yu muttered: "There is no need to chop for spring, colorful out of the green wall, and the four seas are floating around." With a slight smile, the corners of his lips were half gentle, and his clear eyes seemed to be stained with ink, which was deep in an instant.
Lvqingyuan, in the mansion where the people live, several maids sit down around the winter rain like stars and moons, whispering about today's teacher appreciation banquet. Of course, they can attract them to blush and chatter with excitement, and they are still the extraordinary sons of the king's mansion of Chu.
"I heard from the purple cuckoo sister in the tea room. Didn't she wait nearby today? I witnessed the demeanor of His Royal Highness. We often see Yu Erlang, and we already feel heroic and handsome, but this son of the king of Chu is more handsome than him."
"Isn't it said that the son of the king of Chu has shortcomings?"
"In the afternoon, I went to the mirror pool and took a look at it from afar. Although the son of the world was a little thinner, he was not as weak as rumored. No matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a short-lived person." A maid was stupid and shook her head as she spoke, as if as long as she persuaded herself, the prince of Chu could be safe.
Listening to these comments, Dongyu only smiled and said nothing, and secretly think that he is the son of the king of Chu, but he is just a dying person. How can he compare with such a warm and handsome Yu Erlang? These invisible maids don't know how excited they are. Even if the prince of Chu has the posture of a fairy, it's not what they can think of.
Suddenly, a little maid picked up the curtain and stretched out her head and came in: "Where's Sister Cherry?"
Cherry thought these maids were impetuous and had long avoided them.
Dongyu's heart moved: "I think she went to Hetangxie to find tranquility, but Wu Niang is looking for her?"
"That's right, let her go to the house to serve the meal." The little maid said this and put up the curtain.
So, a bunch of maids looked at each other and were not in the mood to talk about the superior prince and grandson for a moment.
"For two days in a row, Wu Niang often asked Cherry to wait on her, and she was even closer than Xia Yun."
"Cherry is really lucky and won the trust of the master." Some people are envious.
was also a little careful. She secretly looked at Dongyu. Didn't Wu Niang regard Mother Song's granddaughter as extraordinary? As soon as she came in, she was given a name. How could she look at the cherry pass her instead?
But with the lesson of Yingsheng, anyone who has a brain knows that she can't talk nonsense. No matter how powerful Mother Song is, Wu Niang is the master of Lvqingyuan. Although Dongyu is worth pleasing, she can't offend the people valued by Wu Niang just to please her.
At this time, the winter rain was indeed not pleasant. She also came in for some time. Although Wu Niang did not treat her harshly, she was really not close. Sometimes she was willing to please her, and Wu Niang was not cold or hot. Instead, she was the cherry with a coffin face all day long, and somehow won the favor of her master.
Going on like this, when the cherry pleases Wu Niang, even if she goes out in the spring and evening, it may not be his turn to wait.
At the thought that Cherry had become a first-class maid and was qualified to dictate to herself, Dongyu felt anxious, and he was even more impatient to chat with these maids. After thinking about it, he simply went to Xia Yun's room.
Xia Yun lives with Chun Duan, but several first-class maids are waiting in the room. Only Xia Yun, in addition to taking care of Wu Niang's four-season clothes and jewelry, has been unable to get close to his master for some days.
At this time, Xia Yun was sitting in front of the window, carefully embroidering the silk handkerchief he promised to give to Dongyu.
Seeing Dongyu coming in, Xia Yun immediately smiled happily, pulled her on the kang, and was busy making tea. He hurriedly showed the plum blossoms on the silk handkerchief to Dongyu, asked Dongyu if he liked it, and embroidered a magpie standing on the branch and turned around attentively.
Dongyu was patient and had a quarrel with Xia Yunhan. Then she lowered her voice and whispered to her ear and said, "Sister, you have to be more carefully. You are a first-class maid, but Wu Niang doesn't let you get close these days. Instead, it is the cherry that often waits with Wu Niang."
Xia Yun was stunned and a little helpless: "Wuniang has never been very close to me."
"I'm kind-hearted to remind my sister that in the long run, Cherry will have to squeeze you away and replace you sooner or later." The winter rain is very serious.
Xia Yun did not panic about this: "What's the difference? They are all slaves and maidservants."
This person is too useless. He simply doesn't have any competitive mind. Dongyu hates that he can't become steel and forget all the words that Mother Song said: "I know my sister's ambition is not here, but there are some things that I didn't let you take advantage of for nothing. Let me ask you, do you really want to marry my cousin?"
Turning around, the words were finally clear today. Xia Yun's heart jumped wildly and pulled the silk handkerchief tightly: "I am helpless in the government. As long as Mother Song looks up to me and is willing to be a horse for the cow..."
It's really delusional just like you! Dongyu was contemptuous and didn't show his face: "I'll say it bluntly, sister, don't be annoyed."
Xia Yun was nervous and nod repeatedly.
"You know, my grandmother fell in love with Chun Twilight at that time. First, it was because she was steady and virtuous, and more importantly, she was trusted by her master. Although she was a slave, it was graced by the master, and it was easy to get rid of slavery, and sister... Although you had a good temperament, you were too cowardly. Wu Niang was not close to you, and there was no one to rely on at home... ...Although my cousin is a little stubborn, after all, he is an official and the position of wife..."
Xia Yun's heart sank heavily, and his face couldn't hide his depression.
Dongyu changed his words: "But if my sister is willing to live in a concubine, it's easy."
This is simply a twist of the peak. The willow dark flowers are bright, and Xia Yun is sad and happy for a moment. He can't control the emotions on his face. It seems to cry and laugh. The appearance falls into Dongyu's eyes, and there is a burst of contempt in his heart, but he pretends to smile: "Although it is a concubine, with the care of my grandmother, it is really better than being a slave."
"Of course, of course." Xia Yun trembled his lips and blocked many vows in his heart. He couldn't wait to say it, but Dongyu didn't want to listen to her grateful words. As a horse, he said clearly: "You know, Chunmu doesn't know how to be praised. Not to mention grandma, I'm also angry with her. I'm not willing to live under her when I come to this Green Garden. You If there is a way to rectify her, she will have a future.
If you want to get something for nothing, there is no good thing like pie falling from the sky!
Xia Yun was stunned again. If she had such ability, how could she be high or low?
But I really don't want to let go of this opportunity...
After thinking about it for a while, it finally came up with a way: "In the early years, I felt lonely in spring and evening. I had a holiday and invited me to her house several times... There was a descendant who lived in Banyan Tree Street, as if he was learning from others to raise chickens, and seemed to be thinking about Chundu... Once he blocked Chundu and used words. Flirting..."
"Do you remember who that person's last name is?" The eyes of the winter rain lit up, and a poisonous plan gradually brewed.
"It seems that his surname is Ma. I heard Chunmu call him Ma Er."
The winter rain thought a little and put on his lips, which was a good whisper.
After hearing this, Xia Yun's face turned pale. After a long time, he reluctantly nodded: "I can try this method, but... in case something leaks, then I..."
"Don't worry, the old lady can't tolerate the spring twilight to stay in the house. Besides, in case something leaks... You admit that the Duke's wife is kind and will not kill you because of the private resentment between maids. At that time, you just need to admit your mistake and ask to leave the house. Don't worry, my ancestors Mother will naturally protect you and send you to Ninghai. Dongyu made another persuasion, which easily strengthened Xia Yun's determination.
Once the plan was completed, of course, he immediately told Mother Song.
Mama Song was shocked: "You girl, why don't you discuss such a big idea with me first?"
"Grandma... Something has changed. If you wait any longer, even if you can leave the house in the evening of spring, maybe you should wait for Cherry Jin! I think she is very favored by the fifth mother, and she will become my threat in the future. If this plan is done, everyone will be very happy. If not, Xia Yun will take the blame, but there is no more than one of her concubine, and no less than her, and her cousin will not suffer losses. Besides, Chun Duu has gone with her, and there will be two vacancies for first-class maids. Isn't it more certainty? Grandma can rest assured that as long as I wait, I will be able to please the master. Dongyu was full of confidence: "But if it goes on and let the cherry be reused by Wu Niang, I'm afraid things will be ruined."
Mother Song didn't care: "Wuniang is still young. For a moment, I feel that the cherry contract is not afraid. Besides, this maid Jin and other things have to be told by the Duke's wife and the old lady. You can't be so calm..." Alas, after all, her granddaughter is young and not cautious.
She didn't know that since Dongyu saw Yuzhou this morning and thought of her future, she couldn't calm down and was eager to win the trust of Wu Niang immediately.
At least Dongyu felt that Yu Erlang and Wu Niang's childhood sweetheart, although they were not princes, they were also a prince and grandchildren, and their status was also noble. In two years, they fell in love with each other. Madame loved Wu Niang so much, and she must be willing to fulfill their hearts.
In the future, Yu Erlang is likely to be the husband of the fifth mother.
So...
As long as you get the trust of Wu Niang and get married, with gentleness and outstanding appearance, you are not afraid of not being favored by Yu Erlang.
At the thought of this, the winter rain is red and warm-hearted, and I can't wait for that day to come as soon as possible.
Of course, we have to strive for it: "Grandma, this matter will be taken by Xia Yun. We will not interfere. Even if she is afraid in the future and tells it, she can't do anything about us without evidence. On the contrary, she can still rely on her cunning words. She is a helpless maidservant and will not let us fall. Besides, in my opinion, she is determined. She wants to flattering us and be a concubine for the officials. She dares not tell the truth for herself. Shouldn't she do this beneficial and harmless thing?
However, these words moved Mother Song's heart. She was not a tolerant person. Chundu became a thorn in her bones and a thorn in her side. However, she was worried about the eldest princess and temporarily endured it. Since Xia Yun sent it to the door, there was no need to use it for nothing.
Mother Song finally nodded under the eager expectation of the winter rain.
