Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 266
Furong Pavilion suddenly became lively again, filled with chattering and laughing of noble ladies, just like before Yao Cunhui came.Weng Master Pingjin was even more delighted to see that everyone was cooperating in such a way. I don't know what the sisters around me said, which made her raise her handkerchief to cover her mouth and giggled coquettishly.

Yao Cunhui's knees tingled one after another, and the sharp sensation was transmitted from the skin to the nerves. She gritted her teeth secretly, and her back was wet with sweat.

"Minister Yao Cunhui has met the Lord Weng!" Her legs gradually became numb, and Yao Cunhui couldn't help raising her voice.

Everyone's talking and laughing stopped abruptly, and they all looked at her, feeling a sense of relief in their hearts.

Lord Pingjin could no longer pretend not to see her, looked at her with a surprised expression of apology, quickly raised his hand and smiled and said: "Oh, look at my memory, I forgot you! You are too, what are you doing?" Why don’t you say it earlier if you’re so out of touch! Hurry up and get rid of the courtesy! Get up!”

"Thank you, my lord!" Yao Cunhui agreed, and after a few times of secret luck, she managed to stand up firmly, and she didn't seem to be rude at all.

Lord Pingjin's originally focused expression relaxed silently, stood up and said with a smile: "It must be ready over there, let's go there!"

Everyone smiled and said yes, and they all surrounded Pingjin Wengzhu together.No one greeted Yao Cunhui, not even a look to invite one, and the maids also looked at each other, just ignoring her.

Yao Cunhui had no choice but to follow, and had no choice but to follow behind the chattering and laughing crowd step by step.

When they arrived at the grassland where the banquet was held, Lord Pingjin greeted everyone to sit down with a smile, and everyone sat down freely in groups of three or four.The seat was just right, Yao Cunhui froze, and stood aside in a little embarrassment.

This time Pingjin Weng Lord did not ignore her, he was chatting and joking with the people around him, when he saw her standing there, he hurriedly stopped, beckoned to her and called her to come closer, apologized and said with a smile: "I don't know how the servants arranged it, but I missed you! Wait a moment, I'll ask someone to add it!"

After finishing speaking, he called the maid who arranged the banquet over and scolded a few words with a cold face. The maid knelt down in front of her and kowtowed repeatedly to admit her mistake, and got up and went down to prepare another copy.

Lord Pingjin smiled and apologized to Yao Cunhui again and again, "If others don't know, they should think I'm trying to embarrass you! Miss Yao, I'm here to accompany you, so don't blame me!"

"Master Weng is serious, Yao Cunhui didn't think so!"

"That's good! I knew you were generous!" Mrs. Pingjin smiled and ordered someone to pour a glass of wine from his table, motioned to bring it to Yao Cunhui, and said with a smile: "Then please drink this glass , let’s take this matter to the public!” Said Bi, rolling his eyes and giggling, “Be careful, don’t spill it, otherwise, I won’t obey, and I will punish you with a pot!”

"Female women dare not!" Yao Cunhui smiled wryly, showing that nothing is absolute, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Pingjin Wengzhu has already spoken so clearly, she has to drink this glass of wine, and she has to drink it if she doesn't drink it!

At this moment, she could only pray to God, that the detoxification pill given by Shen Quan would be effective, and that the poison given by Lord Pingjin was not a rare poison or that it was not poisoned at all.

Yao Cunhui thanked Lord Pingjin, picked up the glass of wine, and drank it bravely. Although he deliberately spilled some into his sleeve while drinking, he still drank most of the glass!
"Okay!" Lord Pingjin smiled, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Sure enough, he is a straightforward person, just in line with my temperament! Hehe, it's not good for you to stand here, why don't you come to the East Garden Pick a few peonies with big red golden stamens for me here?"

Where does Yao Cunhui have the right to say "no"?Dang even agreed, and followed a maid leading the way.

On the way, Yao Cunhui smiled and said to make it easier, the maid took her there, she scratched her throat, spit out a few more mouthfuls of the wine she just drank, cleaned up, and followed the maid.

The banquet at Linshui is very lively, the more you walk here, the more secluded it becomes, and gradually, no one can be seen.Yao Cunhui suddenly became vigilant and slowed down unconsciously.

"What's wrong with Ms. Yao? Hurry up, you haven't reached the place yet?" The maid who led the way turned to look at her with sharp eyes.

Yao Cunhui suddenly swayed while holding his forehead, and fell down on the Shiziyong road with an "ouch".

"Miss Yao!" The maid hurriedly turned her head to help her, "Are you okay!" There was a hint of annoyance in her tone.

"I'm really sorry, I seldom drink alcohol. I just drank a cup and suddenly felt a little dizzy!" Yao Cunhui smiled apologetically, while lifting her skirt to expose her knees, which were covered with bruises and bruises, and some places were still choking Yao Cunhui couldn't help but gasped slightly and bared her teeth.

The maid was stunned for a moment, she thought Yao Cunhui was pretending, but she was still sneering in her heart: Today you have to go if you pretend, or you have to go if you don’t!He made up his mind to forcibly help her, but unexpectedly, she really fell!
"This—" the maid frowned and said, "Can I still go?"

Yao Cunhui tried to stand up, but her knees softened and she sat down again. She shook her head with a wry smile, and apologized: "It hurts to move, and the clothes are also dirty. Can this sister send a message to my maid, Come in with a clean suit for me?"

The maid frowned, and reluctantly said: "I'll hold you aside for a while, don't move around here, I'll get you some ointment, and bring you clean clothes by the way."

"Thank you sister!" Yao Cunhui was overjoyed and nodded gratefully.

The maid smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, looked around, helped Yao Cunhui to the side of a tall Taihu Lake stone among the flowers and trees next to her, helped her find a clean corner and sat down, "Okay, just wait here, Don't move around! This lotus garden is very big, it's not a big deal if you get lost, if you inadvertently break into the Lord Weng's forbidden area, it will be a dead end!"

"Sister, don't worry! I'm not going anywhere!" Yao Cunhui's pupils shrank slightly, and she nodded repeatedly.

The maid was satisfied with her frightened expression, patted the wrinkles on her clothes, and turned away.

After confirming that she was gone, Yao Cunhui let out a long sigh of relief, looked around, rubbed her stinging knee, and walked out of the garden secretly according to her memory.

If you don't leave now, when will you stay?As long as she went out of the garden to the front yard, met Hu Po and Xiao Li, and left a sentence of "inconvenience due to injury", she could not be said to be rude.

Yao Cunhui laughed secretly in her heart: It's fortunate that she knelt just now, otherwise it would not have been so easy to deceive the maid so she would not be suspicious.However, she repeatedly emphasized that she should stay here and not move around, maybe she didn't have any good intentions!
Yao Cunhui walked all the way back in a secretive way, but he didn't expect to go far, when suddenly a man flashed out from the branch road covered by branches and leaves, the two almost bumped into each other, they were startled with "ah!" With a jump, they both stepped back and patted their chests.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" The man looked at Yao Cunhui strangely and asked.

Yao Cunhui lowered his head, only seeing his half-new light blue robe and black mille-soled cloth shoes but not his appearance.However, there was a hint of frivolity in this person's arrogant voice, which must not be a good thing!

"The servant came to pick flowers at the order of the princess." Yao Cunhui lowered his head pretending to be afraid and said in a low voice.

The man squinted at her twice, then waved his hand: "Go!"

Yao Cunhui gave a salute and hurried away.A strong sense of uneasiness suddenly rose in my heart, and I started thumping violently. I subconsciously felt that it was not accidental that this man appeared here. Most likely, it had something to do with her.

Sure enough, Yao Cunhui didn't go far, the man suddenly noticed something, and shouted at her: "Hey, stop!"

Yao Cunhui was startled, and heard his footsteps coming from behind, why would he stand here and wait?Immediately ran forward.

"Stop, stop!" The man stomped his feet, gritted his teeth and cursed something, and rushed towards Yao Cunhui.

Yao Cunhui ran non-stop, but she couldn't believe that this inexplicable man dared to chase her so presumptuously when she got to a place with people!Needless to say, the maid just now must have gone to call this man!Presumably, she also wanted to take herself to a secluded place and wait for this man to appear?

The man's physical fitness is obviously not very good, and although Yao Cunhui is a woman, she runs around the shop and home all day on weekdays, and has traveled thousands of miles, so her physical condition is obviously much better than that man!If her knee wasn't hurt at this moment, it would be no problem to get rid of that man!But at this time, the two were evenly tied.

The man was a little anxious and became angry from embarrassment. A big man, he couldn't catch up with a weak woman. Would it be embarrassing to say it?What's more, he was ordered by the Lord Weng to get rid of this woman today!Now I can't even catch up, so how can I do it?

"Stop, stop!" Seeing that the distance between the two did not shorten at all but continued to widen, the man became more anxious and shouted angrily.

Where is Yao Cunhui willing to stop?As soon as you grit your teeth, you run faster!

However, Yao Cunhui couldn't be happy either, because she found out sadly that she was lost!

Yes, in a panic, she didn't choose her way, she lost her way!The scenery in front of me became more and more unfamiliar, more and more secluded and remote, and the flowers and trees became more and more lush!

The man suddenly realized this too, his heart relaxed, he was immediately overjoyed, panting and proudly shouted: "Little girl, you can't run away, stop obediently if you are sensible!"

Yao Cunhui pursed her lips and ran desperately. The man felt a flash in front of his eyes, and she disappeared immediately.

The man was startled, then subconsciously stopped, panting for breath, and glanced at the dense flowers and trees in front of him.Run forward in small steps.

"Come out, don't hide! I saw you! Come out!"

Holding his voice and holding his breath, Yao Cunhui quietly looked out through the gaps in the leaves, and then he saw the man's face clearly. His narrow eyes were almost narrowed into a slit, his cheekbones were slightly prominent on his long face, and his bulbous nose was particularly eye-catching.It belongs to the kind that is not very pleasing to the eye at a glance.
