Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 177 (End)
[Chapter 135 ]
——Extra episode
—— Zheng Shuangyin always kept the ceremony and stayed where he was to say hello, but Deng Weili waved at Teng Yuyi: “Ayu, come, we have something important to discuss.”
Teng Yuyi was itching and said to Lin Chengyou, “Wait for me for a while. , I’ll go talk to them.”
Lin Chengyou glanced at him, his wife has always been friends with these classmates, and this encounter may be when the conversation will take place, and then I think about it, it happens that there is a case at hand. The man lives in the West City, so he smiled and said, “I’ll go to the side to do other things. The drinks in the Dongfeng Building are good. If you plan to chat with them for a long time, you might as well sit in the building and slowly. Say it.”
Saying that, he motioned Kuan Nu to enter the restaurant to help Teng Yuyi make arrangements, and then went to the other end.
This box Teng Yu agreed to enter the building with several classmates. Kuan Nu specially chose the private room on the second floor by the wind ow in order to facilitate a few people to talk while drinking tea.
“Why did you buy so much fishing gear?” Deng Weili took off his hat, revealing the clothes inside, with a full bun, bright eyes and white teeth.
“I’m going to Puyang and Jiangnan, and I have to go by water on the way. I’m afraid of chatting on the boat, so I plan to catch fish and bake it.” Teng Yuyi personally poured tea for the two of them. Deng Weili smiled and said: “You always know how to eat, don’t eat all the fish in the Weishui.” Teng Yuyi slanted her: “Then you have to go with Deng Weili, we can’t eat it alone. Zheng Shuangyin grabbed the two of them and said, “Stop. We bicker when we see you, and don’t forget that there are serious things to talk about.” Then she said to Teng Yuyi, “Ayu, guess who Weili and I met just now.” The teacup in Teng Yuyi’s hand rested on her lips: “Who?” “Aunt Peng and Erniang Peng.” Teng Yuyi was stunned, since Peng Zhen’s blatant rebellion, she hadn’t seen the sisters for a long time.
Not long ago, Peng Zhen and his henchmen were slaughtered, and Peng’s female relatives were charged into the court as slaves according to the law. The saint and the queen had a good heart, and ordered the release of several of Peng’s female relatives, but they were criminals after all. Genus, even if you don’t have to be a slave or a maid, your life must be very bad.
“Mrs. Peng is poor and ill, and she passed away not long ago. In order to make ends meet, Peng Huayue and Peng Jinxiu are now washing clothes for others in an embroidery workshop in Xishi City.” Zheng Shuangyin said, “Although I don’t have much friendship with them. Good, but when we first studied at the academy together, it was considered to be with us day and night. After all, Aunt Peng and Erniang Peng are not bad by nature. , they gave them a piece of silver, but the sisters refused to accept it at first, but later they knew that I was sincere to help them, and they still accepted it, but at this moment, Wei Li came to me—— Speaking of
this, Zheng Shuangyin and Deng Weili looked at each other.
Teng Yuyi listened carefully. Zheng Shuangyin has a arrogant temperament and is always calm in front of people, but after spending a long time with Zheng Shuangyin, you will know how loyal she is.
“As soon as Wei Li came, Peng Erniang suddenly changed her face and hurriedly dragged her sister away, not even accepting the money.”
Deng Weili smiled bitterly: “She gave me a vicious look when she left, as if she had something to do with me. It’s like a deep hatred. I remember when I was studying in the academy at that time, although I was not a good friend with them, I never offended Erniang Peng. It’s so good, I really don’t understand why Erniang Peng is angry with me.”
Teng Yuyi said “oh”, It sounds strange. Deng Weili’s grandfather, Deng Shizhong, made great efforts to remove Peng Zhen’s remnants. Did Erniang Peng anger Deng Weili because of this? But in this way, Zheng Pu’s shot is no less than Deng Shizhong.
Unfortunately, because she knew that Peng Zhen would rebel, she has always intentionally distanced herself from the Peng sisters. One of the things that impressed the two sisters the most was that at the beginning of her life, she found out that Peng Erniang was in love with the Prince of Chun’an, but nothing else. clear.
“Peng was very prosperous at the beginning. Erniang Peng had been cooking gold and jade since she was a child. Later, when she changed suddenly, her temperament inevitably became weird.” Teng Yuyi tried to guess, “Maybe it was a momentary sadness, not necessarily It’s annoying Wei Li.”
Zheng Shuangyin and Deng Weili wondered something, apparently feeling that this explanation was not enough to dispel their doubts.
“Peng Erniang’s staring at Wei Li—it’s not quite right.” Zheng Shuangyin seemed to be carefully recalling the situation at that time, “That kind of resentment, like Wei Li robbed her of some treasure.”
This is strange.
Teng Yuyi looked at Deng Weili: “You rob Peng Erniang’s things?”
“I don’t mind robbing other people’s things.” Deng Weili shrugged, “Well, maybe as you said just now, Peng Erniang’s temperament has changed, and she can’t do anything. Treat it with common sense.”
Zheng Shuangyin said: “This place is mixed, the two sisters are young, they will be harassed sooner or later. After all, the classmates were in the same class. Since Wei Li and I ran into each other, I wanted to help them find a suitable one. A place to live in, but my grandfather was almost involved in Peng’s case at the beginning, if I go out and settle them, it will inevitably cause suspicion.”
Teng Yuyi hummed, Zheng Pushe, who was kept outside. The other housewife Shu Liniang was sent by Peng Zhen around the corner, with a knife on the head of the word “color”. For this reason, Zheng Pushe Xian was under the control of Peng Zhen and the Prince of Chun’an County, and the Prince of Chun’an County launched the palace. After the change, Zheng Pushe did not know how much work it took to dispel the doubts of the court about him.
Probably thinking about this past incident, Zheng Shuangyin showed a faint look of disgust, because it was his grandfather, so he had to pretend to do things and drink tea and chat.
“Peng Erniang’s attitude doesn’t look like she is willing to accept Wei Li’s good intentions. As for the other classmates – Peng’s rebellion case is very involved, everyone avoids it for fear of not being able to, and after thinking about it, Wei Li and I have It’s time to find you. King Yuan of Qing is the nephew of the saint, and the Huaixi rebellion last year was pacified by King Yuan of Qing and General Teng together. The West Market has met you.”
Teng Yu thought about it, she originally planned to build Caifenglou as an incense shop, but she didn’t worry about the lack of a place to put the Peng sisters, but the matter is not big or small. Xiao, in order to avoid trouble with Grandpa and Lin Chengyou in the future, I have to report to the sage and the queen with Lin Chengyou first, and then make arrangements after obtaining the consent of the emperor.
Therefore, he was not satisfied with his promise, and said with a smile, “I’ll ask him first.”
This “he” naturally refers to Lin Chengyou.
The affection in the words made Zheng Shuangyin and Deng Weili blushed at the same time. The two of them have not yet had a sweetheart, and they don’t know much about love.
The two couldn’t stop looking at Teng Yuyi with a smile. Teng Yuyi was originally the most outstanding looking one among the classmates. This marriage was like a famous flower shining in water, and it became more and more beautiful.
Teng Yuyi was embarrassed by them, and deliberately turned her head and said to the window, “Hey, who are those young men in brocade clothes in front of the building? I see they have been waiting in front of the door for a long time.”
Zheng Shuangyin proudly said I looked at it and said, “Most of them came for Wei Li. Once the prince and Ting Lan got engaged, Wei Li was no longer one of the candidates for the crown princess. The news came out that Chang’an and Luoyang did not know how many princes wanted to marry him. Wei Li, what the Prince of Wei’an Hou Shizi, the eldest son of Boling Cui’s eldest house… The people who proposed marriage are about to break the threshold of their Deng Mansion. We are not very willing to go out with her.”
Teng Yuyi was not surprised at all, Deng Weili came from a noble family, was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, rare and charming and smiling, always attracting attention wherever he went.
Deng Weili was accustomed to this, and cast a disgusting glance at the window: “I don’t like any of them. Either it’s too boring, or it’s just plain looking.”
Zheng Shuangyin lowered his head and smiled: “Listen, the dignified young lady Deng is openly talking about the appearance of a man. ”
Teng Yuyi turned the glass: “Weili, this is your fault, you and I are both people with a strong chest, how can you judge people by their appearance?”
Deng Weili laughed, raised his finger to Teng Yuyi, and then pointed to Zheng Shuangyin: ” If you don’t run on me together, how can you stop judging people by their appearance?”
Teng Yuyi asked with a smile, “You’ve grown up so much, and you haven’t met a man who is pleasing to the eye?”
Hearing this, Deng Weili seemed to lose his mind, Zhi Yi thought for a moment, then shook his head and sighed, “Anyway, I don’t have anything to look at now.”
That is, “Go” used to have something to look at. Teng Yuyi was curious and wanted to ask more details. At this time, Deng Weili and Zheng Shuangyin said again that they were about to set up a poetry club.
Deng Weili excitedly asked Teng Yuyi: “Are you coming? Zheng Er is the president of the poetry club, your elder sister is the vice president, and there are more than 30 classmates who help with household affairs. You are not in Chang’an these days. , we and your elder sister will take
care of it first.” Teng Yuyi likes to have fun the most, and is willing to do everything: “If you really want to set up this club, why should you stick to poetry and talk?”
Zheng Shuangyin smiled: “How are you doing?”
“Riding horses, dancing swords , Cuju…everything is interesting. The participants are all classmates of the academy, so you might as well regularly compare the winners and losers, not one is higher or lower, it is for strength and spirit. Anyway, this entertainment is more boring than the light on the table Poetry and drinking are strong.”
Saying this, Zheng Shuangyin and Deng Weili couldn’t help but also became interested and discussed it. Zheng Shuangyin said: “That’s it, we will officially open the club when Ayu returns from Puyang. The main idea of this trip is to let Ayu enjoy what he saw and heard on the way to Puyang.” The
three of them chatted and laughed, and there was almost nothing to say. Teng Yuyi said that he was excited and invited his classmates to the Chengwang Mansion tomorrow. After discussing the details, before noticing that it was getting dark, Zheng Shuangyin and Deng Weili left.
A few people went downstairs to hold hands, and before leaving, Zheng Shuangyin told Teng Yuyi the current residence of the Peng sisters.
Teng Yuyi got in the car and Lin Chengyou has not returned.
Kuan Nu hurriedly said to Teng Yuyi: “The prince has just targeted a suspect, and it may take a while to return. If the lady is tired, the villain will send the lady back to the house first.”
Teng Yuyi smiled and said, “I am in the car . Wait for him.”
Then he instructed Kuannu: “Duanfu is waiting for me at the store on the corner, and help me find him.”
After a while, Duanfu came, and Teng Yuyi told Duanfu the residence of the embroidery workshop: “Go and stare at the Peng sisters, and tell me what they say and do when they come back.”
She had already I’ve made up my mind to help a group of Peng sisters, but I haven’t figured out where to put them.
Listening to Zheng Shuangyin and Deng Weili’s descriptions, it seems that the two sisters’ temperaments have changed a lot. If they are directly placed in their own spice shop without knowing the details, they will get burned. In addition, Teng Yuyi remembered very clearly that Peng Erniang and Deng Weili got along very well until Peng’s accident, and suddenly hated Deng Weili, something must have happened later.
Teng Yuyi was tensely curious about the hidden secrets.
As soon as Duanfu left, Kuan Nu led someone to wait in front of the car. After waiting for another half an hour, Duanfu came back. Coincidentally, just as Duanfu was about to report what he had seen and heard, Lin Chengyou also returned. .
Lin Chengyou got in the car, and asked: “What did you ask Duanfu to do?”
Teng Yu said in a low voice, “I’ll tell you later.”
After that, he ordered Duanfu: “You can talk about it.”
Duanfu put himself Everything I saw and heard said.
Aunt Peng and Erniang Peng now live in the firewood house in the backyard of Mingzhu Embroidery Square. The firewood house is small and dirty, and there are four people in total. When Duanfu cat came to the eaves, the other two people who happened to be in the same house went to the well to buy clothes. .
Madam Peng, who was around her, scolded her sister in a low voice in the room: “Our sisters have fallen into such a situation, and you are still taking care of your temper. When Zheng Shuangyin gave silver, the slightest bit of contempt was not in it. , I sincerely want to help us. I saw it just now, so much money is enough for us to rent a poor house. What are you doing crazy? If you didn’t drag my sister away, how could it be so messed up? I haven’t even taken the money, my sister is really going to be mad at you!” Erniang
Peng sobbed: “What if we accept it? We are still short of food and clothing.
Squeeze a room with this lowly person like a dog.”
“Don’t say that other people are mean, don’t you understand my sister, you and I are already mean people, and such hard times will not end in the future, why should your heart be higher than the sky.”
Aunt Peng trembled . Said: “So you have a good idea. In that case, why don’t you let the elder sister accept the money?!”
Erniang Peng refused to speak.
“Is it because of Deng Weili?” Aunt Peng asked.
“Yes.” Erniang Peng said sharply, “Anyone can do it, but she doesn’t want to accept her love!” Auntie
Peng seemed to be very angry: “Just because the King of Chun’an treats her…”
“Ah Sister.”
“You are so confused, all this is not your own suspicion, that person is unfathomable, how do you know if he really likes-”
Peng Erniang said with a cry: ” He is! He is! At that time I had him in my heart, and his every move was hidden from others, but not from me.”
“Even if it is true, so what? Deng Weili never owed you, then When she was in the academy, did she treat you and me well enough? Besides, how many people did a scoundrel and thief like him harm, it is worth remembering until now? He didn’t even look at you in the first place. What are you like now?”
Erniang Peng was furious: “He’s a chaotic minister, isn’t Grandpa too? The king is defeated. In the end, he’s not a failure. The matter— ”
Aunt Peng hurriedly covered her sister’s mouth: “You are crazy, you dare to say such a thing! The Prince of Chun’an is already dead, no, the sinner Lin Min has been executed, you are for the sake of the beginning. Chi Nian, how hard is it that you don’t even want to die?”
Erniang Peng cried bitterly, when a Xiu Niang outside came to scold the two sisters: “I told you to cut the material, so you’re hiding here!
” After beating and scolding, the sisters were driven away.
As soon as Lin Chengyou heard the four words of Chun’an County King, his smile disappeared, and he looked at Duanfu and listened to him.
Duan Fu was dumbfounded: “That’s about it.”
Teng Yuyi was so surprised that she didn’t come out for a long time. What did Erniang Peng mean? Is it because of this reason that he hates Deng Weili? But this… how could it be.
She glanced at Lin Chengyou in shock, told Duanfu to retire, turned around, and told Lin Chengyou her decision to take in the Peng sisters.
It took a long time for Lin Chengyou to return to normal color: “It’s okay to help them, but the premise is that they don’t have any bad intentions. Listening to this, their hearts are not bad. Don’t be in a hurry, let Duanfu watch them. Day.”
Teng Yuyi nodded.
After saying this, Lin Chengyou frowned and wondered what he was thinking. Teng Yuyi watched him silently. After Prince Chun’an hanged himself in Xingqing Palace, Lin Chengyou hardly talked about the matter, but when he was handling the funeral of Prince Chun’an , Lin Chengyou lost a lot of weight in just a few days. After that, if someone mentioned the death of Prince Chun’an, Lin Chengyou would quickly become silent, and this time was no exception.
Lin Chengyou regained his senses, turned his head to his wife and looked at him, feeling a little nervous, he took her shoulder and kissed her on the forehead: “It’s getting late, you have to pack up, go back.” On the
way, Teng Yuyi leaned on Lin Chengyou’s shoulder to think silently, and suddenly said, “I want to ask you something.”
“Tell me.”
“Remember that time when the Prince of Chun’an County was to help Wu Qi to choose the crown prince, he asked someone to design you and his wife. Deng Weili.”
Lin Chengyou’s expression paled, and he sighed.
“The evening is the Buddha Bathing Festival. You and Deng Weili were led to the arch bridge in front of the Qinglong Temple at the same time. The people on the road did not think that you were having a tryst. Once this misunderstanding spreads, it will be difficult for Deng Weili to repeat it. Choose the Crown Princess. In addition, that night, the King of Chun’an County also wrote a love letter imitating your handwriting, Deng Weili. ”
Speaking of this, Teng Yuyi glanced at Lin Chengyou: “Because the three words ‘Zhaixinglou’ were written on the jewelry box, even I once mistakenly thought that the gift-giver was you, and I learned later that it was all a trap, but now Come to think of it, I want to make Deng Weili misunderstand, just a love letter is enough, why send such precious jewelry, and the jewelry is falsely claimed to be from the star picking building, but it was actually bought from the other side, Chun’an County No matter how prudent Wang acts, he will ask Dali Temple to follow the vines to investigate, and we may not be able to find out the real source.”
This was also the most elusive part of the case that Teng Yu could not understand. Why bother.
Lin Chengyou didn’t say anything, and he was puzzled by this flaw. It didn’t look like the handwriting of the uncle Huang, but it was like the actions of warriors like Peng Zhen.
Besides, if you think about it carefully, although this move will make people misunderstand that Deng Weili has personal interests with him, but everyone who knows him knows that his thoughts were all on Teng Yuyi at that time, and this matter may make Deng Weili lose his ability to run for the crown princess election. Qualification, but it will not make him Lin Chengyou and Deng Weili really have any relationship. With his temperament, he will even be extremely opposed to Deng Weili.
“One more thing, Deng Weili likes to collect puppets made by craftsmen since he was a child. It happened that the puppet seller who led Deng Weili to the alley at night was a puppet seller, but Deng Weili never publicly stated his hobbies. Few of her classmates know that she likes to play puppets. The Prince of Chun’an can make such ingenious arrangements in the evening, and Ming carefully inquired about Deng Weili’s preferences…” The
carriage suddenly became quiet.
If Peng Erniang’s remarks had planted the seeds of doubt, after this analysis, the doubts have already grown bigger and bigger in my heart.
The two then thought of the dream in their previous life. Of the three people on the list of prince concubines in the previous life, the last one did not marry the prince.
From the comments of the palace servants, most people thought that the reason why the prince refused to marry Deng Weili was because her demeanor was similar to Teng Yuyi.
But if someone doesn’t want Deng Weili to marry the prince, they deliberately set up all kinds of obstacles.
Lin Chengyou’s expression changed unpredictably, and Teng Yuyi asked, “Is that love letter still in Dali Temple?”
Lin Chengyou hesitated.
Teng Yuyi leaned her back on his chest, picked up the goldfish bag around his waist and played with it: “…Do you remember what was written in that letter?”
Lin Chengyou thought for a while: “No, it’s a lingering sentence. , at that time, I was intent on finding out who was behind the scenes, so I didn’t pay attention, it’s been so long, I can’t remember it for a long time.”
Teng Yuyi sighed inwardly, the matter of the Prince of Chun’an was almost in Lin Chengyou’s heart. A scar was formed on her upper body, and it was impossible for him to let go of what happened to her in his previous life and Yan Sizhi’s death.
Perhaps this is the reason, every time the King of Chun’an is mentioned, Lin Chengyou always avoids it intentionally.
She couldn’t bear to ask, she couldn’t hold back her curiosity.
Although the love letter was imitated Lin Chengyou’s handwriting, the content was actually written by the Prince of Chun’an County.
Perhaps the answer lies in the letter.
The next day Teng Yuyi woke up and touched her sideways, Lin Chengyou by her side had long since disappeared.
“Dalang went to Dali Temple to hand over the case. When he left, he told the slaves to stop arguing with the lady.” Several old maids said.
Teng Yuyi came back to his senses and went straight to the bed to dress up. Dress up properly, and go to the room again to greet him.
Qu Qinyao was about to go to Qingyunguan to help Qingxuzi have a feast, and when he arrived at Teng Yuyi, he took her and told her to say a few words. Azhi and A Shuang volunteered to stay in the house to help her sister-in-law pack her luggage. Qinyao was satisfied. left.
Teng Yuyi took his younger brother and sister back to the East Crossing Courtyard, and met Chunrong halfway: “Come back, madam, there is a classmate from the academy.” As a
result, the second brother, Ah Shuang, was inconvenient to follow, he smiled slightly and stood where he was. He said to Teng Yuyi, “Sister-in-law, I’ve been in the house all day today. If my sister-in-law has something urgent to do, I can tell my second brother.”
He also instructed Azhi: “Help your sister-in-law clean up, don’t be naughty.”
When he said this, Ah Shuang stood upright in the sun, neither like Lin Chengyou’s high-spiritedness, nor like Cheng Wang Duan’s calm and cold, but a bit of the elegance of his uncle Qu Ziyu Character, Teng Yuyi said that he was young and mature, so he couldn’t help but nod with a smile: “Sister-in-law will definitely ask you to help me with something.” As he spoke, he
brought Azhi back to the East Crossing Courtyard.
Teng Yuyi pulled Azhi forward to say hello, and the girls took the lead with a smile and bowed their heads: “Ayu, Princess Azhi.”
During the tea break, Du Tinglan quietly asked Teng Yuyi, “We will leave tomorrow, how are you packing your luggage? ”
It’s almost there. No, I went to the West Market yesterday to add some more stuff, and I have to pack it up today.”
Du Tinglan was worried: “I’ll help you clean up when I look back. A-niang is afraid that you won’t be used to the food on the road. I specially prepared some food for me to bring.”
Teng Yuyi’s eyes lit up: “What did my aunt do?”
Du Tinglan smiled and poked her sister’s forehead: “glutton.”
Azhi asked happily: ” Madam Deng and Madam Zheng, do you want to open a poetry club too?”
As soon as these words were said, the pavilion became more lively. After drinking a cup of tea, Teng Yuyi invited the classmates to have fun in the garden. I don’t know who mentioned the strange people in the rivers and lakes. One of the classmates interjected: “Speaking of this, I remember that Wei Li met the strange people in the rivers and lakes a few years ago in Luoyang.”
Deng Weili said: “Yes, I ran out with the guards because I was having fun. Unfortunately, I encountered a group of gangsters with strong martial arts outside. The man happened to be with his entourage Lu, and he took the gang of thieves in three strokes or two. I drove them all away, but unfortunately it was too late, so I didn’t see his face.”
Azhi asked curiously, “I didn’t even see the figure of that person?”
Deng Weili smiled slightly, then shook his head, For a moment, the girls dispersed. The flower viewing of flowers, the butterfly catching of butterflies, and the colorful and graceful figures add a few more spring colors to the beautiful garden.
Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan and others were discussing the poetry club in a corner of the garden, and a glimpse of Deng Weili was sitting alone by the pond feeding the fish.
Teng Yuyi moved in her heart, left her sister and Zheng Shuangyin, walked to the pool and sat down next to Deng Weili.
Deng Weili looked at her: “Did you look at the Peng sisters? How do you plan to accommodate them? If it is not convenient for you here, I will go and beg my grandfather.”
Teng Yuyi looked at the koi swimming in the pond , did not pick up.
Deng Weili approached and looked at Teng Yuyi, suspiciously: “Why are you so weird today, eh, do you know why Erniang Peng is annoyed at me?”
Teng Yuyi said coldly, “Weili, did you mistakenly think that Peng Erniang saved you in the first place? That strange man in the rivers and lakes is the prince?”
Deng Weili shook his hand and almost lost his fishing rod, although she didn’t answer, but her surprised expression already explained everything.
Teng Yuyi raised her eyebrows: “Don’t be annoyed first, you and I have always been on good terms, I know that you are lazy on the outside, but you are very assertive in your heart, if you don’t have a good impression of the prince, you will never let your grandfather send you to run for the election of the prince. Deng Weili quickly glanced at Du Tinglan over there, put down the fishing rod in his hand, and said in a low voice, ”
You can only guess, but don’t let Tinglan misunderstand me, besides, I already knew that the person who saved me was not the prince.” .”
“When did you know?”
“I knew it a few years ago.” Deng Weili was not afraid of Teng Yuyi’s misunderstanding, but he was afraid that Du Tinglan would have a knot in his heart, so he simply opened up and said, “Otherwise, why do I always hide in Luoyang? It’s because I know I made a mistake. The list of Princess Nai is not a child’s play, and I can’t take it out of the grandfather Yang. It’s been five or six years since the Luoyang incident, when it was dark, the one who saved me He didn’t say anything from the beginning to the end, but he was surrounded by a lot of entourages. All of them called him ‘Young Master’. From the accent of his entourage, he was obviously from Chang’an. The clan children of Bailongyufu, two of the guards are neither male nor female, and their voices are sharp and thin. Later, when I went to visit Daming Palace, I realized that most of the eunuchs in the palace have this voice. Think about it, if that person If he wasn’t the prince, how could he let the eunuch in the palace be his servant, but the second prince was only ten years old at that time, so he could be the prince. I asked my grandfather to inquire, and sure enough, the prince did come to Luoyang for a while, so this misunderstanding It was settled . It took a few years before I realized that I made a mistake.”
Teng Yuyi was surprised: “How did you know that?”
“I remember that man knocked down the bandit leader with one move, which shows that he has martial arts skills. There are many outstanding ones. But once in the palace in the first few years, I competed with the prince and the samurai in the palace, and the martial arts seemed to be far inferior to that person, not only the prince, but also few people in Chang’an City had such high martial arts.”
He said again . Teng Yuyi said frankly: “At the beginning, I also suspected that it was Prince Cheng, but I found out that Prince Cheng went to Hongzhou with the prince and concubine to travel, and it was not in Jingluo at that time.”
Teng Yuyi’s eyes Light moved: “You didn’t suspect that he was the king of Chun’an county?”
Deng Weili was shocked: “No one can be the king of Chun’an county. Everyone knows that the king of Chun’an county is rich in five cars, but he can’t. Martial arts.”
After saying this, Deng Weili seemed to be thinking about the palace change, and his expression flashed with a hint of hesitation.
Teng Yuyi felt bad, and smiled hurriedly: “Look at me, I almost forgot this, no, I heard the prince say that the Prince of Chun’an County knows martial arts. That’s all .”
Deng Weili was surprised at first, and he was relieved when he heard the last sentence.
Teng Yuyi looked at Deng Weili. Deng Weili has been worried since he was a child, and his personality is bright and open-minded.
On the night of the Buddha Bathing Festival last year, there was always a doubt in my heart.
Deng Weili has been very knowledgeable since he was a child, so how could he accept a pair of Yingyue Pearl Rings of unknown origin? Could it be that the love letter said something that moved Deng Weili?
Teng Yuyi couldn’t help guessing along this line of thought, for example, in the letter, he counted the scene where he saw Deng Weili, or mentioned something that Deng Weili did.
These words are enough to convince Deng Weili that it was written by someone who loves him. After all, only those who pay special attention to him will notice Deng Weili’s actions. At that time, Deng Weili was already one of the candidates for the crown princess. Except for the prince, no one in Chang’an dared to attack her, so Deng Weili mistakenly thought that it was the prince showing his love to her.
It turned out, however, that it was not a conspiracy.
No, perhaps behind this conspiracy, there is still a touch of unknown feelings hidden.
It’s a pity that if you keep asking, you will cause trouble for your good friend.
Well, if something happens, let it go with the wind.
Suddenly, he thought about the conversation he had with Lin Chengyou last night, and wondered if he would look for the letter when he was in Dali Temple today.
***
After Lin Chengyou handed over the case at hand, he sat in the office in a trance.
The surroundings were obviously very quiet, but the conversations of the children of several generations that he heard during the imprisonment lingered in his ears.
“You want to marry Deng Shizhong’s granddaughter?”
“Why not?”
“It’s not far from the door, but don’t forget, that Mrs. Deng almost became a crown princess at the beginning of her life. Don’t expect Deng Shizhong to see it.”
“This old man is too arrogant. Don’t forget that the Crown Princess is also the daughter of Dr. Du, Zijian. Can Deng Shizhong be the Crown Prince?
” Duke He Wei picked a son-in-law on his own, how can the two be compared? Besides, no matter how bad Du Du is now, he is still a well-known family in Guanlong for a hundred years, while Deng Shizhong was not even the king of Chun’an at first. ”
Shh, I advise you to be cautious. Now there is no place for the Prince of Chun’an, who is guilty of Lin Min. By the way, how did you know about this?”
“This matter has been going on for several years .” At that time, my grandmother used to walk around the palace. Empress and Princess Cheng took pity on Linmin’s mother since childhood. When he was eighteen years old, they decided to choose a good marriage for him. I don’t know what happened. One of the people who asked was Deng Shizhong’s granddaughter. I didn’t expect to be rejected by Deng Shizhong. It is said that the prime minister’s tone was still blunt, but not so. Deng Shizhong seemed to be afraid that the Queen and Princess Cheng would not give up. The granddaughter was sent back to the Luoyang Wei Gongfu overnight, so that the empress and princess Cheng would not be able to give birth to Taiwan.”
Another slut laughed: “…Actually, it’s no wonder Deng Shizhong, Lin Min’s life experience…I don’t know. Yes, I wouldn’t marry my precious granddaughter to a traitor and have a son. If Deng Shizhong is still alive, let alone Lin Min’s defeat, even if he is still the king of Chun’an County, he will not be able to marry
Mrs. Deng.” Then, the jokes of colleagues came from outside, which interrupted Lin Chengyou’s thoughts.
Colleagues entered the room and laughed: “Lin Pingshi, since you got married, I haven’t had a drink with my colleagues for a long time. We discussed it. Before you go to Puyang, everyone will have a drink tonight. Wang Si Zhi said, this time he will be the host.”
Lin Chengyou remembered Teng Yuyi in his heart, and smiled: “There are such good things, I have to go back tonight to pack, it will be too late, senior’s. I have a good intention, so remember this meal first, Senior Wang, how about making it up when Lin comes back?” The
colleagues couldn’t hold back, so they had to talk and laugh to send Lin Chengyou out.
After arriving at the corridor and talking for a while, Lin Chengyou smiled and bowed his hands to his colleagues, and said goodbye first.
The case room at the corner of the road froze again.
The door of the case was closed, and the case was locked inside. Because it was a major treason case, Zhang Siqing and the official in charge of the case were in charge of the key at the Dali Temple, and Lin Chengyou happened to be that official.
After standing in front of the door for a while, Lin Chengyou opened the door unexpectedly and entered.
What caught my eye was the three bookshelves standing in the sky. This place was too familiar to Lin Chengyou. With his eyes closed, he could find out the relevant case files. Find the love letter in the volume.
Along with the letter, there is also a lacquer box.
Lin Chengyou hesitated for a moment, then slowly opened the dust-sealed lid.
The eyes suddenly lit up, and the pair of moon-reflecting bead rings burst into a moon-like light.
Lin Chengyou stared at the lacquer box and took down the letter beside the box. The handwriting inside is exactly the same as his.
At first, he scribbled over it, after all, it was a conspiracy, and the words in the letter were naturally false.
But now it was different. The huge doubt in his heart made him start to re-examine the content of the letter.
As he read, Lin Chengyou felt like the wind was blowing in his heart. Words can be faked, and affection can be exaggerated, but the detailed descriptions in the letter can never be faked. Only when the recipient is very careful, will they notice such small moments.
It’s a pity that it was hidden too deeply and pressed too hard, and the proud and contradictory youthful feelings were all hidden between the lines of the false and true.
Gradually, Lin Chengyou’s chest rose inexplicably, a kind of stuffiness.
This made him feel out of breath.
Hesitantly, he put the letter back in its place.
After standing for a long time, he gently closed the splendid jewelry box.
The action is very precious, and it does not even disturb the light dust on the lid of the box.
***
All day, Teng Yuyi had been discussing with people about the Poetry Club. After sending off a group of classmates in the evening, she was busy instructing Chunrong to pack their bags. At this time, Mammy came to ask for instructions: “Madam, Did the prince say you want to come back for dinner?”
Before Teng Yuyi could answer, someone said, “No need, my wife and I are going out tonight.”
Teng Yuyi looked back and walked to the front court where Lin Chengyou was wearing. .
Teng Yuyi turned around and hurriedly instructed Biluo: “My son and I are going out of the house, bring the things I prepared, and also, the close-fitting clothes we will pack when we come back.”
Then he went down the stairs . Welcome to go.
Lin Chengyou looked at his wife up and down and smiled: “No need to change clothes?”
“It’s already been changed.”
Last night, the couple decided to go out in the evening.
Lin Chengyou led his wife and walked out: “Let’s go then.”
As soon as he got in the car, Teng Yuyi covered her mouth and yawned, feeling sleepy, she simply napped with her back against Lin Chengyou’s chest.
Lin Chengyou was stunned for a moment, then looked down at his wife: “Didn’t you take a nap today?”
Teng Yuyi closed her eyes and sighed: “I was busy discussing things with my sister and the others at noon, so I didn’t care about taking a break in the morning.”
Lin Chengyou With a smile, he lowered his head and kissed her hair: “Okay, sleep with me, and I’ll call you when I get there.” He
pulled the cloak on the low couch to cover it for his wife.
Teng Yuyi squinted for a while, and suddenly felt that Lin Chengyou was unusually quiet. He raised his eyes and looked at it, his expression was no different from usual, but the subtle changes in emotions were hidden from others but not from her, which made her think. After a while of silence about the love letter, Lin Chengyou was still in a trance and didn’t intend to ask any further questions, so he closed his eyes again and took a nap.
She fell asleep almost as soon as she closed her eyelids, and suddenly someone whispered in her ear, “Ayu.”
Teng Yuyi rubbed his eyes.
Lin Chengyou pinched his wife’s ears: “Are you awake?”
Teng Yuyi nodded with her eyes closed, Lin Chengyou loosened her warm cloak for her: “Then get out of the car, we’re there.” The
two got out of the car together and walked along the alley . He walked in and quickly came to a shabby house.
Lin Chengyou raised his hand and knocked on the door.
After a while, I heard small footsteps coming from the door, and the door should be opened.
“Prince, madam.” The door was opened by one of Yan’s old maids.
Immediately afterwards, a young woman dressed in plain clothes greeted her, it was Yan Sizhi’s widow Bai Shi.
Mrs. Yan held a fat white baby in her arms, and when she saw the two, she couldn’t hide the surprise on her face.
“Sister-in-law.” Lin Chengyou and Teng Yuyi greeted with a smile.
Mrs. Yan was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly led them inside: “Hurry up, please come in. Can you have dinner?”
When she reached the front court, Teng Yuyi looked around, the house was well organized, and the master and servant were all dressed The trim is neat. Stepping into the central hall, I heard someone inside ask: “Sanniang, who is here?”
Madam Yan hurriedly said, “Mother, it’s the prince and the lady.”
As soon as she finished speaking, an elderly woman hurriedly came out from the inside. She has white hair and a thin body, but with those gentle eyes and a solemn outline, you can see at a glance that it is Yan Sizhi’s mother.
Lin Chengyou and Teng Yuyi respectfully stepped forward and bowed their heads: “Junior, see you, Mrs. Yan.”
Mrs. Yan was in a hurry, just holding on to one side, but unable to stop there, she turned her head and said to Mrs. Bai, “Sanniang, you are here. To entertain the distinguished guests, mother will serve tea.”
“Go on, son.” Bai Shi turned around and handed the baby in his arms to the old mama next to him.
“Don’t be busy, sister-in-law, I’ll hug my nephew.” Teng Yuyi carefully picked up the baby.
When he was talking, he lowered his head and met the baby’s clean eyes. The baby seemed to have just woken up, his arms and legs were tense, and his mouth was spewing translucent bubbles.
Teng Yuyi looked at the baby curiously.
Lin Chengyou didn’t dare to touch such a small lump of meat, so he looked at his wife’s arms for a while, and suddenly found that the baby noticed him, he couldn’t help laughing, and teased: “Do you recognize me? Call me Uncle You.”
Teng Yuyi’s eyes widened With a smile: “How old is he, I heard that a child can only recognize a person when he is half a year old.”
Lin Chengyou disagreed: “As soon as he came to me, he laughed, I’m sure he recognized me.
” Lin Chengyou’s face changed, not only that, but also grinned at Lin Chengyou and smiled.
“Yeah, I really recognize you.”
Mrs. Bai came to serve tea with her mother, and after listening to the serious discussion between the husband and wife, she couldn’t help laughing and said, “I’ve already recognized someone, but it’s still very early to call someone.
” With red eyes, the man sighed: “Lao Shizi and his wife often come to take care of the child. The child is very strong. If Wan Chun knows about it, I don’t know how excited it should be.”
Lin Chengyou smiled: “I wanted to visit Yi or two, If it makes the old lady sad, it’s our fault.”
Madam Yan wiped away her tears, sat aside and asked kindly, “It’s getting late, can we have dinner?”
Teng Yuyi and Lin Chengyou looked at each other With a glance, he answered calmly: “If I go back to the old lady, I haven’t had time to have dinner, and I just want to harass the mansion.” The
old lady Yan and the Bai family were overjoyed: “Why bother? Don’t think the food is vulgar. Good. Just wait a minute, the meal will be ready soon.”
Teng Yuyi and Lin Chengyou replied with a smile.
After a while, the food came to the table, and it was really refreshing. After a lively meal, Teng Yuyi took advantage of the old lady to pull Lin Chengyou to speak, and went out to ask Kuan Nu to bring the baggage she prepared earlier into the house.
It is filled with rice millet, all kinds of mountain treasures, cassia and fish soup. Teng Yuyi said: “Eating this meal, there will be another meal horizontally and vertically. This meal should be placed at my sister-in-law’s place. When my son and I come to eat again in the future, it will not be considered empty-handed.
” No matter how hard-hearted Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Yan were, they couldn’t refuse this intention.
After teasing the infant child for a while, Teng Yuyi and Lin Chengyou said goodbye as it was getting late, Madam Yan and Mrs. Bai took the child out of the house, and Lin Chengyou said, “Junior and Ayu are not in Chang’an these few months. From tomorrow, Prince Cheng’s mansion will take turns to send people to take care of him, and if the old lady and sister-in-law have anything to help, you can tell them.” Mrs.
Bai handed the child in her arms to Mrs. He gave Teng Yuyi and Lin Chengyou a salute: “How can my sister-in-law not know your heart, the child is still young and the days are still long, even for the sake of the big man, my mother and I will never be reckless. You can go with confidence. Well, if there is any difficulty, I will ask you for help.”
After saying this, he handed over a bag of butterflies that he made by himself to Teng Yuyi: “My sister-in-law made it by herself, and it is better than the one sold in the west market. All the way, you can make dry food on the road.”
Teng Yuyi sighed secretly, this woman is neither humble nor arrogant, she is really respectable and lovely. She answered cautiously: “Sister-in-law stay. Old lady stay.”
