Qing Ping Le · Double Songs

The candlelight of the eight-petal lotus lamp illuminated the Dongyuan study room, and the three-legged animal horn incense burner in the room was burning with calming incense, and the light smoke curled up.Rong Cheng held the news from the capital in his hands, and the smile stopped on his face. Wei Changdong entered the capital three days ago, while her cousin Rong Che left the capital seven days ago, and it is time to arrive. Yongzhou City is the only one.

"My lord." Xia Feng walked in from the door, "Miss Bai is the only one left."

"En." Rong Cheng nodded, and put down the letter in his hand, "Is there any breakthrough on Uncle Wang's side?"

"Not yet." Xia Feng reported, "Since the hidden stake in the southern garrison was pulled out three years ago, the Jingyuan Palace has acted more cautiously. So far none of our people have been able to sneak in again."

Rong Cheng's eyes were calm and unwavering, "Don't startle the snake before His Majesty has no orders."

Jing Yu said, "Princess Qingping's departure from Beijing seems to be related to Mr. Wei's early entry to Beijing."

"There is a marriage alliance between the Duke of Wei and Uncle Wang, but it is not Qingping who is worthy of being the eldest son of the Duke's mansion. Uncle Wang may be more satisfied with this marriage if it is not for Wei Changdong's love for Qingping."

"Looking at the day when Princess Qingping left the capital, he should have no intention of paying attention to Young Master Wei."

Rong Cheng smiled faintly, noncommittal, "Shocking rain, is there any news about Qingping?"

Jing Yu lowered his head and said in apology, "You lost me in Shaocheng, please punish me, my lord."

Rong Cheng smiled and said, "In that case, go and remove the eyeliner she put in."

"It was eliminated three days ago." This time it was Xia Feng who answered, "My lord, did Bai Luoying recognize you today?"

"It should be so."

Xia Feng said, "Then she is inseparable from what happened back then. Your Majesty has always been concerned about the assassination 13 years ago. Bai Luoying, this clue, will definitely be found out."

Jing Yu continued, "My lord, the sects destroyed all the way by Yan Luodian are related to the matter you investigated, and this time, the Asura Order was sent to Baihua Palace. This Yan Luodian does not look like wanton provocation, but rather seeks revenge. Who will be behind the scenes?"

"Hundred Flower Palace." Rong Cheng closed his eyes and chewed, "Bai Luoying." Back then, she was just a child and Bai Luoying could recognize her, not to mention how she would forget that Bai Luoying was in his prime.

The assassination of the queen 13 years ago not only brought the young eldest princess with her, but also the two princesses An Le and Qing Ping of the twin kings. The place where the accident happened was near Yongzhou City. Check it out.

Thoroughly investigating the assassination that year and finding the culprit behind the scenes was the real purpose of the empress to let Rong Cheng go to the south of the Yangtze River. These years, the empress felt grief and indignation every time she thought of the eldest princess who died young.His father's words "Be careful in everything" rang in Rong Cheng's ears again. His father had already expected the danger of this trip but still let her come, but he also knew that she had not let go after all these years.

Rong Cheng opened his eyes and said, "Xia Feng, keep an eye on Cheng Hao."

"Yes, son."

"My lord." The maid called from outside the door, "Miss Dongge is here."

Rong Qing's clear pupils were filled with a smile, "Let her in."

Dong Ge took off the big black cloak that was covering the outside and put it in the hands of the maid, and then slowly walked in from the door, her salute was gentle and gentle, "Master."

"What's the matter with Master Chen?"

"Master Chen specially prepared a special Lantern Festival in Yongzhou City for the princess on the grounds that the new year is approaching, and asked his subordinates to tell the princess that he wants to accompany the princess to the street to enjoy the lanterns."

Before Rong Cheng could speak, he was interrupted by Chun Mian who came in to look for Dong Ge, "My lord, let's go together." Rong Cheng ignored her.He only instructed Dong Ge, "Go back and tell Chen Yu that the market is complicated and you must not make a big show of it. In order to ensure the safety of the princess, he is not allowed to accompany him, so he carefully leaked the identity of the princess."

"Dong Ge understands."

Jing Yu said, "The princess can conjure up a Lantern Festival within a few days after arriving here. It seems that this Chen Yu has already made arrangements. They are more aggressive than other local officials."

"Sister Dongge is leaving now?" Chun Mian hurriedly grabbed Dongge with a look of reluctance, "I'll go back with you tonight, I have a lot to say to you."

Dong Ge comforted Chun Mian with one hand, and looked at Rong Cheng in embarrassment, "Master?"

"It is not allowed to be seen through, can it be done?"

"Of course it can be done."

Chun Mian happily went back to the house where the princess stayed with Dong Ge, after the Ziqi came out, the whole face was covered with sorrow, Dong Ge asked funny, "What's wrong, who offended our little Chun Mian. "

"It's not that Bai Qingtong. I can't beat him again and again, and I don't look like a waiter. I really don't know why the young master is trying so hard to bring her by his side."

"Don't forget that Young Master always likes beautiful things."

"Where is she so good-looking? Who knows what she looks like if she covers her face with a veil all day long." Chun Mian grew up with Rong Cheng since she was a child, and being the most favored, it is inevitable that she will be a bit pampered and playful.

"You are spoiled by the young master." Dong Ge poked Chun Mian's swollen face and asked, "Is that flower god living in Xiyuan?"

"It's her. It's so convenient to walk across from East to West Garden. What if Bai Qingtong intends to assassinate the young master?" Chun Mian became more and more frightened as she thought about it.

"With Xia Feng and Jing Yu, no one can hurt your son." Dong Ge calmed Chun Mian's emotions, and then asked, "Among us, you are the only one who has fought against Bai Qingtong. Is she really good at martial arts?"

"My lord is also very surprised by this." Chun Mian's small face wrinkled into a ball, "In today's martial arts competition, although Bai Luoying only performed three moves, she is still a first-class master. It stands to reason that her direct disciple should not be inferior in martial arts. Where are you going?" She thought for a while and suddenly snorted coldly, "God is really fair, since he gave her a good-looking face, he naturally wants to let her qualifications be mediocre."

"You." Dong Ge laughed, "Childish."

The maid left behind by Bai Qingtong in Xiyuan put a large cloak on her body, and said softly, "Girl, let's go into the house earlier." Then she said intimately, "Miss, be careful about your body."

"Your name is Jinghao?"

Quietly and respectfully said, "Yes." She watched silently for a long time, the woman under the cold moon was as clear as autumn water and as cold as ice, especially her pair of scissored eyes were shining with water, but they were also condensed. Cracked thin ice.

When Jinghao heard that Bai Qingtong was staying in Xiyuan, she was already looking forward to it. The reputation of the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world had already been heard, so many people wanted to see her beauty.She waited with a group of maids for Bai Qingtong's choice. When Bai Qingtong's eyes swept towards her, she was both nervous and expectant, and then the porcelain white fingers pointed at her, feeling a little helpless joy at that moment.

Bai Qingtong chanted in a cool voice, "The violin is at the gate, so please be quiet." It was originally a graceful love poem, but in her mouth it was cold and indifferent.

"The name of Jinghao was bestowed by the young master, and it is from here." Jinghao said again, "The girl is not used to it when she first came here, but after a long time, she knows that my young master is gentle and easy to get along with."

The well-behaved plum blossoms on the branches are charming in the night, but after watching for a long time, the interest fades away. Bai Qingtong gathered the cloak around her body and said in a low voice, "Go back to the room."

There is a cliff top in the deepest part of Baihua Palace, which is the residence of the flower gods of past dynasties. It is deep and secluded. Bai Qingtong has lived there since childhood. Compared with this place, it is not as luxurious as it is, but it is more secluded.She has always been reticent and listened to Master's teachings, just like Master asked her to follow the Twelve Young Masters, she obediently lived here without asking any more questions, she seemed to be used to obeying the arrangements.

This night, Bai Qingtong slept soundly. The next morning, when she was sitting on the bed and adjusting her breathing, Jinghao asked in a low voice outside the door, "Girl, are you awake?"

After finishing her work, she breathed out a few more times, and replied with a cool voice, "Wake up, come in."

Jinghao poured hot water into the basin, wet the towel and brought it to her. She took it and said, "I will do it myself." Although she is the flower god of Baihua Palace, she still takes care of all the daily life by herself.

Jing laughed and said, "It will be good if the girl gets used to it after a while." She turned around and took the porcelain cup for mouthwash, "Girl, please rinse your mouth first." Bai Qingtong's veil happened to cover her embarrassment.

"The clothes the girl brought are a bit old, so I'll go and tell them to prepare some new clothes for the girl." Jinghao waited for her to get dressed, and exclaimed, "The girl looks so good in white clothes. What kind of clothes does the girl want to wear?" Hairstyle, quiet but good at everything.”

"It's the same as before." Bai Qingtong is not used to the maid's busy service, let alone being touched by outsiders, but even if she has a lot of reluctance in her heart, she will not reveal the slightest bit on her face.

"Quiet." A maid's voice came in from outside the door, "Master ordered me to come and invite Miss Bai to Dongyuan to have breakfast together."

"Go and call back first, and say that the girl is combing her hair and will be there in a while."

"Don't make your son wait too long."

"Understood." After Jinghao answered, she said to Bai Qingtong again, "Although I have not been with you for a long time, you never have breakfast with others. You really treat girls differently."

Bai Qingtong saw that Jing Hao in the bronze mirror was pursing her lips and snickering, her brows were slightly frowned, her eyes were cold, this Twelve Young Master was becoming more and more unpredictable.

"Girls are the most beautiful when they are just a piece of rough jade. Simple decoration is the most beautiful, and it is not appropriate to be gorgeous." Jinghao looked at Bai Qingtong carefully. Even with the veil covered, she felt more and more beautiful the more she looked at it, and she was full of joy, "Girl, come with me." , Don't make the young master wait for a long time."

From Xiyuan to Dongyuan, you only need to cross a bamboo road that is evergreen all the year round. After passing through the moon gate, you will be in Dongyuan. Bai Qingtong found out that the bamboo forest is so dense that it is too easy to hide his whereabouts. A gust of wind blows, and the branches and leaves rustle softly .

Rong Cheng's pale fingertips were pinching a black chess piece and thinking about it, Jing Yu was sitting opposite her and waited for her to make a move, seeing that she was still not moving, Jing Yu's face was smug, and said, "My lord, you can think about how to use this black chess piece." where to put?"

"It's been a while since I played chess with you, but your chess skills have improved rapidly." She dropped the chess piece casually.

"Of course, Shibie will be impressed after three days of seeing each other." Jing Yu confidently chased Hei Zi and made a move.

Rong Cheng asked with a smile, "Which expert gave you advice?"

Jing Yu shook his head, his face full of inscrutability, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed."

Rong Cheng ignored her and concentrated on making moves. After five pieces, white eliminated several pieces of black pieces. When the ten pieces were settled, black pieces tried to save the situation, and after making several pieces, white's advantage was lost.Jing Yu saw the black chess continuously encroaching on the attack, and was shocked and chased and fought hard but failed to save the defeat. He cast his eyes from the chessboard to Rong Cheng, and said with a smile, "Young master is really brilliant, he obviously has a countermeasure but he still pretends to think about it." After a long time, Jing Yu was convinced."

With a smile on his brow, Rong Cheng said, "It's because you are not good at learning."

"Master Bai is here, you can eat."

Rong Cheng caught a glimpse of Bai Qingtong coming in early in the morning. She packed up the chessboard and got up to sit at the round table. The maid who was waiting by the side opened the food box and served the breakfast. Four small plates ordered two bowls of soup.Bai Qingtong sat down opposite her, Xia Feng and Jing Yu led the maids back out, the door closed to block a large piece of morning light.

"There are no outsiders here, so it's more convenient for you to take off the veil." Bai Qingtong took off the veil as he said, and Rong Cheng said again, "Are you still used to it last night, can you still be considerate when you are quiet?"

"she's fine."

Occasionally, the ivory touched the silver plate and made a nice sound, "I heard that the streets of Yongzhou City will be filled with lanterns every New Year's Eve, and when night falls, the city will be full of candlelight like daytime, and it will be very lively."

"Qingtong's sect is strict, and I have never seen it."

"Then you can follow me to have a look tonight."

"tonight?"

Rong Cheng said with a smile, "Master Chen, the county guard, specially prepared the Lantern Festival to please Princess Anle, who is going south for inspection." She said this very naturally, but kept out of the way.

"Twelve sons have many eyes and ears."

"Miss Bai is absurd."

At noon, Chun Mian went back to Ziqi Donglai alone, and when she saw Bai Qingtong playing chess with her son again, her face turned angry and she was about to leave.Rong Cheng squeezed a chess piece in his hand and said with a smile, "Why are you willing to come back?"

Chun Mian twitched her lips and saluted irregularly, "Chun Mian greets you, Young Master." She took a few steps forward and said in a low voice, "Sister Dongge has something to do, and I'm bored by myself, so I came back. .”

"Did you tell Dong Ge?"

"Speaking of which, sister Dongge sent someone to send me back."

Rong Cheng smiled and said, "I've got someone to make you a new dress and change it quickly, we're going to watch the lanterns later."

Chun Mian's round face was full of brilliance, "Thank you son." After speaking, he ran back to the room like a gust of wind.

Bai Qingtong didn't say a word from the beginning to the end and concentrated on making a move. Rong Cheng's gaze rested on the top of her head from bottom to top. She seemed to feel it but still bowed her head and said nothing. After a long time, Rong Cheng said, "I've prepared an New clothes, let Jinghao help you change later."

"Thank you sir."

"You lost again."

"It's because Qingtong is not good at chess."

Rong Cheng withdrew his smile and stared at her. During the past half a day, he repeatedly tried to find out that this flower god of Baihua Palace is not good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Could it be that God gave her a beautiful face but intentionally made her so mediocre.

"If you don't have any other orders from the young master, Qingtong will go back to her room and change her clothes."

Rong Cheng waved her to leave. After Bai Qingtong left, she packed the chessboard silently, and then asked again, "Is this the case for all the flower gods in the Baihua Palace?"

Xia Feng said, "My subordinates have checked, and the Baihua Palace does not focus on cultivating flower gods, but the appearance of flower gods in the past dynasties is the first-class beauty."

Jing Yu said, "Especially this generation is the best. Although the flower god is honorable, he will not take over the sect, and their marriage is determined early, so the sects keep their secrets secret, so the cultivation of the flower god is natural. How reserved, it is understandable to be like Miss Bai."

Rong Cheng nodded and didn't pursue the matter carefully, "Is there any other news?"

"Wei Guogong has already planned the time to return to Beijing, and King Jingyuan is still not sure whether he will return to the court this year."

"Qingping hasn't entered the city yet?"

"I have ordered people to watch the gates of the city day and night, but Princess Qingping may have entered the city in disguise."

"It's okay." Rong Cheng glanced at the sun and said with a smile, "Let's all go down." The wind whipped up the residual leaves, and the sky suddenly darkened. She suddenly thought of the phrase "The sound of the phoenix flute, The pot light turns, and the fish and dragon dance all night." I don't know what the lanterns will be like tonight.
