The ministers of infrastructure knelt down and begged the scientific research boss to be enthroned

Chapter 51

After the eldest princess Wei Yuwei left, Wei Chenrui had the time to look at the surrounding environment.

The first thing I saw was a pond not far from the pavilion. I think it was specially built to appreciate the lotus. Although it was Mid-Autumn Festival, the lotus leaves had not withered yet, and the lotus pods had just been picked, leaving bare lotus stalks.

Xu was worried that something might go wrong. There are fences on both sides of the pond. They are not temporary wooden fences, but they must have been built by craftsmen.

From a distance, there is still a gap, which should be left on purpose, so that people can row in to pick it. After all, from Wei Chenrui's angle, you can faintly see the tip of a small boat.

Seeing the pond, Wei Chenrui didn't have the heart to look at other things.

She thought, according to the law of scripts, there must be some problems at any banquet.

Whenever you encounter a pond, there will always be various accidents.

For example, the calculations between sisters, pushing people into the water, and then the calculations fail, and they are tricked by themselves.

While Wei Chenrui was thinking wildly, the maid sent by Yang Yuning and Wei Chenrui, led by the servant girl from the Princess's mansion, came to the pavilion where Wei Chenrui was.

"Cousin, you really know how to find a place. This place is really good. It's not easy to be found, and you can clearly see the scene of the whole banquet." Before reaching Wei Chenrui, Yang Yuning opened his mouth.

Hearing the voice, Wei Chenrui turned his head and said with a smile: "Cousin, you don't know me yet. I have never been to this imperial aunt's mansion. How could I find such a good place by myself."

"It was the empress who informed the emperor's aunt of my intention to come here, and the emperor's aunt specially arranged for it!"

Yang Yuning said clearly: "So that's the case, it was the empress who arranged carefully. When I go back to pay my respects, I have to thank my empress well!"

"Thank you very much!" Wei Chenrui agreed very much.

While speaking, Yang Yuning had already walked up to Wei Chenrui, sat next to her, and the servant girl hurried forward to make tea.

After serving the tea and taking a sip, Yang Yuning said in confusion: "What was my cousin watching just now, she was so engrossed!"

Wei Chenrui pointed to the pond ahead: "Hey, look at the pond!"

Yang Yuning looked in the direction Wei Chenrui pointed, and said with some regret: "The scenery is not bad. If it comes in summer, it will be even better. It's almost withered now."

Wei Chenrui shook his head: "Cousin, what I see is not the scenery."

"What's that? There's nothing else but the scenery?" Yang Yuning thought that there was something he hadn't seen, so he took a closer look and found nothing wrong.

Wei Chenrui smiled and said, "Cousin doesn't usually read scripts, does she?"

Yang Yuning shook his head: "The story book? How can I have the time to read those? On weekdays, learning the rules, reading, calligraphy, and learning martial arts will take up all the time, and there is no such thing as idle time!"

"What does this pond have to do with the script?"

Wei Chenrui picked up the teacup, took a sip, moistened his throat and said, "Of course it has something to do with it."

"My cousin also knows that I have a good memory, and now I don't have much schoolwork. Apart from being busy with government affairs and research, I still have a lot of leisure time."

"No, just read the storybook boringly."

"I read a lot of story books, and I also know some classic scenes, which are also scenes that will appear in many story books."

Yang Yuning was still puzzled: "What does this have to do with the pond?"

"Oh, cousin, don't worry, this is about to be said." Wei Chenrui teased.

Yang Yuning pretended to be angry and said, "Hurry up and say it, don't make a fool of yourself, it will spoil my appetite."

Wei Chenrui repeatedly pleaded guilty: "My fault, my fault!"

"Because, in the script, whenever there is a pond at the banquet, something will always happen."

"Those books that involve the secrets of the back house, if there is a pond in it, someone will definitely fall into it."

Yang Yuning, who grew up in the palace, naturally no one told her about the secrets of the back house, and she didn't understand it. Looking at the fenced pond, she was very puzzled: "Isn't there a fence? How could it fall into it?"

Naturally, Wei Chenrui also knew what was going on with Yang Yuning, so he decided to take this opportunity to talk to her, "There is someone who pretended to be pushed down to frame someone."

"There are some people who are jealous of others and want to push them down, and then attract a male guest to save them, ruining their reputation."

"Of course, there are still people who just jumped off on purpose, wanting to attract people to rescue them, and seize the opportunity to hold on to them, using this as a threat to marry into a wealthy family."

"Hiss! It's like this!" Yang Yuning was very surprised, but still skeptical, "It's all in the scriptures, it's a fool's play, it can't be true."

How could Wei Chenrui, who was determined to make Yang Yuning more knowledgeable, let go of this opportunity: "Don't believe me? How about we make a bet?"

Knowing that Wei Chenrui is smart and not sure about things, she would not make a bet, and Yang Yuning would not be fooled: "No bet, if you are not completely sure, how could you make a bet, I am not stupid."

Speaking of this, Yang Yuning seemed to realize something: "In the script, is it true?"

Wei Chenrui nodded: "Although most of the scripts are fake, the scripts are also adapted based on reality, so there are naturally real things."

"This classic scene about the pond naturally happened for real, but whether it will happen today is still unknown."

Hearing what Wei Chenrui said, Yang Yuning breathed a sigh of relief: "I hope today goes well and nothing like this will happen."

However, Wei Chenrui didn't think so, he just didn't want to say it clearly.

So I changed the subject: "By the way, cousin, you said you asked me to bring the male pet here, did you hear any rumors?"

Yang Yuning nodded and said seriously: "It's not what I heard, it's what my grandfather said."

"In our capital city, there are quite a few dandies. You are a concubine, so some people will not avoid thinking of you and asking you to bring your male favorite. When you meet those men, you can let him come forward to make contact. "

Wei Chenrui also took this into consideration before he recruited Kai back, nodded and said, "So that's the case, grandfather is quite right to be worried."

Speaking of male favorites, Yang Yuning looked around Wei Chenrui, but he didn't find anyone suspected of male favorites, only a guard with a sword.

Frowning, he said, "Cousin, didn't you bring your male pet?"

"Bring it?" Wei Chenrui was very puzzled, "Isn't it?"

Saying this, he pointed to Kai standing beside him.

Yang Yuning couldn't believe it: "Isn't this a guard?"

Wei Chenrui saw that Kai was dressed in black, with a blank expression on his face, standing motionless beside him with a sword, he really looked like a guard.

He laughed dryly: "Haha, he looks like a guard, but he is indeed my male favourite."

"You also know that he is good at martial arts, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sneak into the palace quietly."

"People who practice martial arts are naturally different from those young masters. They are used to wearing tights, carrying weapons, and are used to being serious."

Thinking about those brothers in his family, Yang Yuning nodded understandingly.

At this time, there was some movement on the other side of the pond, and several young ladies and maidservants wandered there.
