Spring dyed pear blossoms
Chapter 45
In Chang'an in June, the sun is already scorching hot, but the hottest thing is not the sun, but people's hearts.It was the restless hearts of the men in the Misty Rain Building.
The Hundred Flowers List is the day at the end of the month, and at the beginning of the month, all the oirans are already eager to try.Of course, Meng Qiucheng was not idle either. In addition to ranking Jinxi's rivals in the Hundred Flowers List, he also had to prevent someone from taking the opportunity to try to get ahead and use some dirty tricks.So she put in a lot of effort and thought in the dark.
After finally being able to take a leisurely walk in the courtyard of the mansion to rest for a while, it was only then that he remembered the princess' previous explanation.
Meng Qiucheng frowned in embarrassment, "Is Zhang's father and daughter okay?"
A Yu accompanied him and nodded, "Everything is fine. But the queen mother seems to know that Zhang Zekun is still alive, and she is looking around. King Yong is also secretly dispatching troops, and secretly replaced several officials in the capital. Although the official position is irrelevant, But they are guarding the lifelines of Chang'an. Once King Yong gets into trouble, these people will be troublesome.
It seems that the Empress Dowager and King Yong planned to rebel after the Hundred Flowers List while dancing in front of the first hall. "
"Hehe, the emperor is becoming more and more decisive in dealing with things, and the queen mother can hardly suppress it. The past years of dormancy have finally achieved results. These years, the emperor has been secretly accumulating energy. When the day when the first dance is performed, the emperor will probably take some action .
At that time, the Zhang family's father and daughter will be important witnesses of the Yongle Temple fire. Once the Queen Mother is pulled down, the Zhang family's father and daughter will surely die.The emperor and the empress dowager are mother and son after all. Although the empress dowager wanted to promote King Yong's supremacy, she would never kill the emperor.On the contrary, the emperor also wanted to save the queen mother.
If the fire at Yongle Temple is revealed, and the empress dowager is implicated, the emperor will lose face.The emperor will definitely not keep this father and daughter.The princess has already guessed this level, and she doesn't want innocent people to be implicated again.So after the matter is completed, you must immediately arrange manpower to escort Zhang's father and daughter away from the capital. "
After Meng Qiucheng finished speaking, he lowered his head and furrowed his brows and sighed softly, "King Yong lost both of his arms in the case of private salt, and he has long hated me. It's just that now he's focused on planning to seize the throne, and he hasn't taken care of it yet.
So the fire at Yongle Temple can be regarded as an opportunity for us.It will be much more convenient for me to investigate the incident that year when I go deep into the court and secure my position. "
"After waiting for so many years, I finally made it through. But..." Ah Yu looked sideways at Meng Qiucheng, "Miss Jinxi enters the palace alone, are you really willing?"
Meng Qiucheng had planned for a long time, and smiled at the moment, "Naturally, I don't want to give up, but what's the point of not giving up?"
Ayu didn't understand what she meant, but he didn't want to ask again.
Qin Sisi's incident has passed for a long time, and the Yanyu Building has finally returned to its former style.After a while, those benefactors who once came here to see Qin Sisi's beauty will completely forget her.
Meng Qiucheng finished his business and came to Yanyu Building early.Because today is the time when the oiran is performing, and half of the men in Chang'an City will come, so Liang Wang is no exception.
Naturally, Meng Qiucheng would not let King Liang show off alone, let alone give him a chance to get along with Jinxi alone.She had already made plans in her heart, with a fox-like smile hanging on the corner of her mouth, she kept looking around, looking for the figure she hadn't seen for a few days.
I don't want to be slapped from behind. When I turned around, surprise flashed in my eyes, but it was as usual in an instant.
"The master reserved the private seat, and the master also said, since Mr. Meng likes to miss the place of fireworks so much, why not come together!" Xia Lian, who was dressed in men's clothes, said in a low voice.
The smile on Meng Qiucheng's face was slightly awkward, and he followed the person in front of him to the room on the second floor.His eyes glanced around from time to time, and finally settled on the opposite room.
The boy in the building just pushed the door in with the food and wine, the profile of the person inside was facing the door, Meng Qiucheng saw the figure he had been looking for for a long time at a glance.But the person sitting across from her was the last thing she wanted to see.
When the color below was a little displeased, he entered the room without saying a word, then closed the door and stood aside.
"Master Meng, why be so cautious, sit down!"
Meng Qiucheng didn't refuse and sat down directly.Looking at Wei Anrong, who had a high golden crown in front of him, a jade-like face, and a rather suave manner, he carefully asked, "Why is the princess here today?"
Wei Anrong held the folding fan in his hand, and opened it with a bang, very chic.
"Master Meng doesn't think that this palace is here today because of you?"
Meng Qiucheng shook his head with a smile, "The princess is looking for an official, how come she came to this kind of place. Could it be that the princess is also here for the Hundred Flowers List?"
Wei Anrong's eyes moved slightly, staring at the absent-minded look in front of him, he was also a little angry.With a calm face, he asked in a flat tone, "The imperial palace is not a good place. You tried every means to let her enter the palace. Why?"
Meng Qiucheng thought for a while, but did not answer.
Wei Anrong didn't force her, but said, "You tried every means to let her enter the palace, but King Liang tried every means to prevent her from entering the palace. You should be able to see that King Liang has moved his heart. You are nostalgic for the place of fireworks. Well, it doesn’t matter which woman you fall in love with, it’s your freedom after all. But if you touch the woman of King Liang, do you think you can win, or King Liang?
What's more, if you really let her into the palace, which woman the emperor favors is beyond your control.So in the end, are you really doing her best, or is it because of the ulterior secret in your heart? "
Meng Qiucheng was startled, worried that Wei Anrong would see the clue.But when I thought about it carefully, I found it impossible.
She paused, then burst into a hearty laugh. "Hahaha, princess, what you said so hard really made the officials admire. The princess came here today for her sake, so why bother to beat around the bush here! In fact, the princess also wants her to enter the palace, isn't it? Is it?"
Wei Anrong's brows and eyes relaxed, and a smile came to his lips, "Oh, you hit the mark. I remember what you said last time, and I am not someone who trusts others easily. She is by King Liang's side. It would be safer to be by Bengong's side. It's a pity that you are so infatuated, she doesn't seem to have you in her heart."
Meng Qiucheng twitched the corners of his mouth, as if he had a plan in mind, "How does the princess know that she doesn't have one!"
"Whether you have it or not is up to you, but King Liang definitely has her in his heart. I'm afraid that today's performance will be delayed. In terms of financial resources, you are not as good as King Liang. How can you let her win? How about taking this ride?"
"It's impossible to rely on the lower officials, but the princess must have a way. Otherwise, the princess wouldn't come here on purpose. It can't be to visit the lower officials!"
Wei Anrong beckoned, and Xia Lian, who was also dressed like a man behind her, took out a stack of money from her wide sleeve and handed it over. Meng Qiucheng looked at her in confusion, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to take it.Judging by the thickness, it must be at least 10 taels.
"This is for Mr. Meng, it should be enough for today."
"Then this is considered to be planned by the princess for her. The servant is just running errands. If she finds out by then, she will definitely be grateful for the princess' kindness."
Wei Anrong shook his head, his smile gradually cooled down, "It may not be a good thing if she knows."
"But she will know sooner or later. The princess was raised in Yongle Temple back then, and she was taken back to the palace. She must have noticed this matter, and the princess can't hide it even if she wants to." Meng Qiucheng said.
"That's right! If she thinks about it, she will know." Wei Anrong seemed to be lost in memory, recalling childhood scenes.A simple smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
There is no conspiracy and no suspicion, and this smile has become extraordinarily beautiful.
Seeing Wei Anrong like this, Meng Qiucheng felt pity.She suffered a lot for the unjust case back then, and although this noble Princess Jingrong lived a thousand times better than her, she had to guard against other people's schemes every day, and every night she had to be careful of backstabbing.Living on such a cusp of wind and waves, if you are not careful, you will lose your life.To her, the word happiness is the most luxurious.
At this point, Meng Qiucheng realized that they were basically the same kind of people, they were all just one word, pretend!
It's easy to pretend to be crazy, but to pretend in front of a group of wolves, tigers and leopards, all you need is skill.
Now every time Meng Qiucheng sees Wei Anrong, he feels more taboo in his heart.Such a person is smart and cunning, but it is also the easiest to discover her secrets.
Meng Qiu intentionally thought too much, and forgot to look away when he stared at Wei Anrong.
Xia Lian coughed lightly in embarrassment, and Meng Qiucheng came back to his senses.
Wei Anrong tasted the tea and was not offended by her unreasonable behavior.
There was a lot of commotion outside, Wei Anrong put down the teacup and got up, "Let's leave it to Mr. Meng."
Meng Qiucheng also stood up, and asked again, "Isn't the princess coming here on a special trip to give money to the lower officials today?"
Wei Anrong looked at her and smiled faintly.
Meng Qiucheng hurriedly saluted, "Then I would like to thank the princess for her generosity."
Xia Lian glared at him angrily, he was such a despicable villain who pretended to be good after taking advantage of it.But seeing that her princess didn't intend to blame this person at all, Xia Lian could only bow her head and stand aside.
"Ben Gong sneaked out tonight. If you go back late, the gate of the palace should be closed. Sir Meng, I can't go to your house all the time. It's against the rules. Since Master Meng is a son-in-law, I come into the palace to visit me. It should be too. Master Meng, what do you think?"
Meng Qiucheng was taken aback for another moment, then nodded dully, thinking that the princess might be worried that the queen mother might be suspicious.
Meng Qiucheng stepped forward to open the door for Wei Anrong, and it happened that Luo Ying passed by the door.
Luo Ying's heart tightened, but she pretended to be meaningless and bowed slightly to Meng Qiucheng and Wei Anrong in men's clothes, then turned and left.There was a lot of haste between the steps, and I almost wanted to run.
Looking at the back, Wei Anrong couldn't help but smile, "It seems that Mr. Meng has a lot of emotional debt!"
Meng Qiucheng smiled awkwardly, "Go slowly, I won't send you off!"
Taking advantage of the fact that the people on the opposite side didn't notice, Wei Anrong didn't care about him, and hurried out of the Misty Rain Building.
After getting into the carriage, Xia Lian couldn't help but said, "Is the princess just letting the son-in-law like this?"
"kindness?"
"He is the emperor's son-in-law, but he doesn't get along with those brothel girls. He obviously doesn't take you seriously, the princess. Xia Lian is not worth it for the princess!"
Wei Anrong sighed softly, "Whether it's worth it or not, he and I are just using each other after all, because of this relationship, I must trust him, and so does he. As for who he likes, it has nothing to do with Bengong."
"If it's really irrelevant, princess, why did you come here in person today? But if you give him some money, it doesn't matter who goes. The princess wants to see him in her heart, that's why she did this."
"Xia Lian!" Wei Anrong's expression darkened, "Be cautious in your words and deeds!"
Xia Lian mixed her hands together, squeezed hard, and finally answered unconvinced, "Yes!"
