No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 358 Grandson-in-law?
After hearing what Luo Junyao and Qin Yao'er said, Xie Yan didn't show much shock or anger, but raised his eyebrows slightly.

Seeing him like this, Luo Junyao immediately realized something, "Did you already know what he wants to do?"

Xie Yan shook his head and said, "I don't know, but he has been under surveillance by the palace all the time, so don't worry about it."

"That's it." Luo Junyao felt a little relieved now, since Xie Yan was staring at her, naturally he wasn't worried.But she was still a little curious, "Why did you think of monitoring Khenpola?"

During the period when Khenpo came to Shangyong, it should be considered a rule, right?In addition, during this period of time, there were many things to do, how could Xie Yan spare manpower to watch Khenpola?
Xie Yan smiled lightly, but did not explain to her.

Khenpo dared to be rude to the princess regent in public, how could he ignore such a person?
Luo Junyao raised his head and looked at him, "Then do you want to tell Big Brother? Big Brother is looking for Khenpo."

Xie Yan said: "I sent someone to tell him yesterday, but he didn't tell you?"

Luo Jun shook his head, Luo Jinyan really didn't tell her this.

Xie Yan said: "As long as Khenpo is assassinated in Shangyong and does not commit any crime, the Prince Regent's House will not move him for the time being. But since this matter has something to do with the Luo family..." Xie Yan thought for a while, then turned his head to Qin Yao'er and said, "Go Tell Jinyan what you have found out, Jinyan is so concerned, I am afraid that Xiao Hong's matter is not over yet."

Qin Yao'er naturally didn't dare to have any objections, she immediately responded and turned around and slipped outside.

After Qin Yao'er went out, Luo Junyao looked at Xie Yan with a smile and said, "Are you done with your affairs? You won't be busy in the future?"

Xie Yan thought for a while and said, "There should be nothing important to do during this time." King Ning's side was almost done, and Ruan Ting was still lying half dead in the prison.Bai Jingrong and his party rushed on their horses and should have almost reached the border by now. When the border troops successfully took over the territory, it would be considered a major event.

Even if something unexpected happens, the direction of southwest and northwest can only be moved after the beginning of spring, and there is nothing to be done for the time being.

That being said, it really isn't a big deal.

"What? What's the matter with Yaoyao?" Xie Yan asked.

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "No, I just feel that I've been very busy during this time. If you've been busy, you should have a good rest." Xie Yan was seriously injured when he returned to Shangyong. It's only been a few months?

Not to mention there were several fights during this period, and he was still so busy every day, no matter how good his body was, he couldn't bear it.

Xie Yan hugged her in his arms, sighed softly and said, "It's nothing serious these days, how many days shall I accompany you out of the city?"

Luo Junyao quickly shook his head and said, "No, why go out of the city in the cold weather?" Even the hot spring villa outside the city is far less comfortable than the Prince Regent's Mansion.If she would still be interested in going out to play in other seasons, let's forget it in winter.

Xie Yan didn't force it, nodded and said: "That's fine, then we'll go when spring begins."

"That's about the same." Luo Junyao smiled with satisfaction.

"My lord, Ruan Xiang's wife is seriously ill, and the eldest lady of the Ruan family asked the lord to allow them to invite a doctor into the mansion to see Mrs. Ruan." Zhu Siming came in with a post outside the door, and reported respectfully.

"Mrs. Ruan?" Xie Yan frowned slightly, and Luo Junyao was also a little surprised, "Didn't Mrs. Ruan say that she was ill earlier and still hasn't recovered?" When Xue Ya first returned to Ruan's house, she heard that Mrs. Ruan was ill. up.

Zhu Siming shook his head and said: "The guards of the Ruan family reported that Mrs. Ruan seemed to be very ill, and the eldest lady of the Ruan family knelt down and begged them for help. They didn't dare to make their own decisions, so they ran errands for the Ruan family and sent a post. "

Luo Junyao took the post and opened it, and it was indeed a woman's handwriting.He couldn't help but frowned and said, "Is Miss Ruan in charge of the Ruan family now?"

Zhu Siming shook his head. Since the Ruan family was besieged, they have been unable to leave or enter. He is the head of the royal residence, Shi naturally doesn't know what is going on in the Ruan residence.

Xie Yan didn't read the post, but directly said: "Send an imperial physician to take a look."

"Yes, my lord." Zhu Siming respectfully withdrew.

Luo Junyao put the post aside, turned to look at Xie Yan and said, "How long will those mansions be sealed?"

Although there are only a few families who are actually under house arrest in the mansion, and these few families basically have the heads of the family who are still in the sky prison, but this unresolved feeling is precisely what scares people the most.

Not only those under house arrest are afraid, but those outside are also worried.Although Luo Junyao didn't often attend the gatherings among Shangyong's female relatives, she felt the subtle uneasy atmosphere just at the last gathering in the Plum Garden outside the city.

Xie Yan said: "It's not a bad thing for them now, it will be in the future."

Those who really have nothing to do with King Ning have basically been released these days, and the family members who have not been released yet are still free.Like the Ruan family, it is basically related to conspiracy.

If this was put in the previous dynasty, these people should be staying in the sky prison now, not just under house arrest in the mansion.Once the verdict of the Sansi Yamen came down, the hard life of these people really began.

Luo Jun said: "Waiting for the verdict is always very difficult."

Xie Yan said: "We can't wait for a few days. King Ning's party members have basically been found out, and there will be a result in the court soon. As for Ruan Ting... If he is really unwilling to speak, it is enough to follow King Ning to seek rebellion. He beheaded, and the Ruan family ransacked their home and exiled."

Luo Junyao thought of Ruan Yueli, that silly Ruan Fu, and the missing Ruan Yuelou, and didn't know what to say for a while.

The Ruan family has almost never participated in King Ning's conspiracy, except for Ruan Ting.

However, the entire Ruan family is attached to Ruan Ting. When Ruan Ting is in power, they are naturally honored and no one dares to provoke them. But now that Ruan Ting is defeated, they can only follow him into the dust.

Xie Yan gently held her hand and said softly: "Ruan Ting didn't participate much in the case of King Ning's rebellion, and the Ruan family knew nothing about it. At most, he would only kill Ruan Ting, and the others should know exiled."

Luo Jun shook his head and said: "I know, I'm not thinking about this. I'm thinking... Where did Ruan Yuelou go?"

Xie Yan also narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the words, with a bit of murderous look in his eyes, "I'm afraid I have to ask that Mr. Xueya about this."

The place where Mrs. Su invited Luo Jinyan to drink tea was not at Su's house, but at Pinyiju in the south of the city.

Luo Jinyan arrived just before the appointed time, but he didn't expect Mrs. Su to be one step earlier than him, and was already sitting in the wing room drinking tea.

"The junior is late, please forgive me." Luo Jinyan cupped his hands.

Grand Tutor Su said with a smile: "Young Master Luo, you don't need to be too polite, it's because I came early. I can't do much when I'm old, so it's inevitable that I have nothing to do."

Luo Jinyan lowered his eyes and said: "Teacher is joking, the court and His Majesty still rely on you, and I and other juniors also look forward to receiving more advice from Grand Tutor."

Su Taifu smiled, shook his head and sighed: "Nowadays there are many young talents in Dasheng. It is the greatest benefit for the court and His Majesty that we old men don't point fingers. Mr. Luo, please sit down and talk."

Luo Jinyan thanked him, and just now sat down opposite Grand Tutor Su.

Grand Tutor Su raised his hand to pour tea for him, but Luo Jinyan dared not, and first took the teapot to refill the water for Grand Tutor Su, and then poured tea for himself.

Although he was born as a general, his appearance is somewhat gentle, and the movement of pouring tea seems to have a bit of elegance and calmness of a scholarly family.

Taifu Su looked at the young man in front of him with a smile, he was naturally very satisfied with Luo Jinyan.Both civil and military, good looks and demeanor.What is rare is that there is no arrogance and arrogance of the disciples of Shangyong Gaomen, who are not rigid in the world, but also know how to restrain themselves.

If such a person is not the eldest son of the Luo family, Grand Tutor Su really wants to accept him as his closed disciple.

Of course, it is impossible to be a closed disciple now, and being a grandson-in-law is also very good, but I don't know if he and A Rui have this fate.

"What does Mr. Luo think of A Rui?" Taifu Su asked suddenly.

Luo Jinyan was startled, but soon came back to his senses.

He thought for a while, and said seriously: "Miss Su is extremely intelligent, quick-witted, gentle-tempered yet tenacious, she is a rare lady from a famous family."

Grand Tutor Su smiled, and said again: "Then... Mr. Luo thinks, so what about the comparison between A Rui and the Princess Regent?"

Luo Jinyan obviously didn't expect Taifu Su to ask such a question, but he still answered calmly: "Yao Yao has a lively and alert personality. Although she looks a little delicate, she has her own difficulties in her heart. As an elder brother, the younger generation is proud of her." The juniors think that they are incomparable, they are all rare and good girls."

Grand Tutor Su was noncommittal, "Young Master Luo thinks, does Lingmei suit the position of Princess Regent?"

Luo Jinyan said: "There is nothing in this world that is suitable or not, only whether you are willing or not. As a brother, I didn't want her to sit in this position. But in the same way, as a brother, I hope she will marry her and want to marry her." I also believe that she can be whoever she wants and wants to be."

"Mr. Luo is a good brother." Taifu Su sighed lightly and said, "If A Rui also has a brother like Mr. Luo, I can rest assured."

"The young masters of the Su family are all talented and virtuous gentlemen who love their younger brothers and sisters. Why did the Taifu say that?"

Mrs. Su shook her head, sighed and said: "They, just study and be a man, what about the rest... Ari told me yesterday that she doesn't want to get married."

Luo Jinyan had expected it a long time ago, but he still couldn't hide his disappointment when he heard Taifu Su's words.

Luo Jinyan picked up the tea and respected Mrs. Su, and said calmly: "Jinyan will not force Miss Su, if there really is no fate between me and Miss Su, this junior will never force me."

Taifu Su looked at him, with a bit of regret on his face, "Ari is just too smart, and the life of a too smart woman is always more tortuous than others. Does Mr. Luo know what she did back then? "

Luo Jinyan bowed his head apologetically, "I know."

Since he fell in love with Su Rui, Su Rui was threatened and he naturally wanted to investigate.It's actually not difficult to get some secrets out of Xiao Hong. If Su Rui didn't solve the matter by himself, he would have helped her solve it.

"You know, you still don't want to change your mind?" Taifu Su raised his eyebrows and said, "Shangyong has a lot of ladies from famous families. Although I think my girl is outstanding, I don't think she is a good candidate to be a good wife and mother. There may not be any better and more suitable girls for her."

Luo Jinyan smiled lightly and said, "In the eyes of the Grand Tutor, what is a good wife and mother? Maybe Shangyong does have a better woman, but that's not Miss Su."

Taifu Su raised his eyebrows slightly, Luo Jinyan said softly: "I don't know where the love comes from..."

What a bold boy!

Master Su's white brows were slightly raised, but there was not much real anger in his eyes.

He took a sip of tea slowly, and then said: "The engagement between the Xiao family and the Su family has been terminated, and the old man will not care about the affairs between you young people, but... unless A Rui personally agrees, the old man will not agree within three years Anything about her marriage." Let's see what happens three years from now.

Su Rui had broken off the engagement, although this is not considered a stain on her, but in the eyes of the world, most people are not happy that she immediately find another marriage to marry.

Even if it drags on for three years, getting married at the age of 20 is too late for ordinary women, but for Su Rui, there are many excuses.

Luo Jinyan cupped his hands respectfully and said, "Thank you, Taifu, this junior understands."

"So, Grand Tutor Su rejected you." Luo Junyao looked at his elder brother sympathetically in the Prince Regent's residence and said.

Luo Jinyan didn't have any sad look on his face, and said calmly: "Teacher just said that Miss Su needs to agree with herself."

Luo Jun shook his hands and said, "But, Sister Su won't agree, she doesn't know you well."

"..." Luo Jinyan took a deep breath, this sister can't be taken anymore.

Luo Jun came to Luo Jinyan's side with a grin, stretched out a finger and poked his shoulder, "Brother, why do you like Sister Su? You haven't said a few words, have you?"

Luo Jinyan was silent, but he didn't know.

Maybe it's just like what Yao Yao said, just for the sake of sex?
But there are not many women in this world who are more beautiful than Su Rui. What kind of beauty has the eldest son of the Luo family never seen?

But it happened at that time that it suddenly caught my eye and moved my heart.

Seeing that Luo Jinyan didn't answer, Luo Jun shook his head and said, "If Sister Su asks you that, are you going to keep silent?"

Luo Jinyan glanced at her and said, "Watching my jokes make you happy?"

Luo Junyao quickly put away his smile, "Where is it? I'm asking seriously."

Luo Jinyan also replied very seriously, "I don't know either. On the day Ming Xiang got married... there were many things and I didn't think much about it. It was only after my mother mentioned the marriage that I..."

Even if he is as calm as the eldest son of the Luo family, when his marriage is mentioned, he suddenly thinks of the face of a woman he is not familiar with, and he is a little at a loss for a while.

But Luo Jinyan knew that Su Rui had a marriage contract, and he didn't want to be a treacherous villain who ruined other people's marriages.Just keep this faint feeling in your heart, maybe it will gradually fade away after a while.

One day later, he happened to see her again on the street.

Although she was wearing men's clothing, he recognized her immediately.She came out of a bookstore with a few books in her hand, and she was talking to the owner of the bookstore. The smile on her face was completely different from usual.

Although the woman in men's clothing looked like a gentle and elegant young man, he could see from her face a bit of radiance that he had never seen in women's clothing.

After that, she walked all the way with the book in her hand, and he unknowingly followed her.

I saw her squatting in an alley, playing with a kitten with her head down.I saw the loneliness on her face when she lamented that people are not as free as cats.

When he found that he thought of her more and more when he was alone, he realized that perhaps things were not as simple as he thought.

"What are you thinking of?" Luo Junyao approached him with a smile.

Luo Jinyan came back to his senses, raised his hand and pushed her delicate and beautiful face away, "Don't make trouble."

"What are you going to do? Do you want me to confess to you?" Luo Jun said, "Or let me pass a letter to you?"

Luo Jinyan rubbed his sister's hair with a smile and said, "I know it well, so don't worry about it."

"Okay." Luo Jun shrugged his shoulders, "Then I wish Big Brother all wishes come true."
