Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 69 Calling
Waking up the next morning, as expected by Yiqing, Zheng Jingyan returned to his calm and indifferent appearance, and the two had breakfast together as if nothing had happened. Zheng Jingyan said to Yiqing:
"I'm not at home during the day these few days. You should spend more time with the old ladies and wives. The weather in spring is capricious. The servants may be careless. The elders have improper food and clothing. You should watch carefully."

Yiqing nodded: "I can save this, don't worry."

Seeing that there was another small plate of cabbage in front of Yiqing, cut into very delicate and thin strips, looking white, tender and refreshing, she would always recommend to him all kinds of side dishes on the table on weekdays, except She had never mentioned this before, Zheng Jingyan took advantage of her talking, stretched out his chopsticks and quickly put a piece into his mouth, his brows were wrinkled, neither swallowed nor swallowed, Yiqing pursed her mouth and endured the hard work with a smile, her heart Let me see if you dare to be too curious, do you know how the cat died?

Seeing that he finally swallowed it, he handed him a sweet roll: "Eat this, it won't be spicy anymore!"

Zheng Jingyan took the sweet roll, took a bite and chewed it slowly, half-lidded his eyelids to cover the tears in his star pupils that were choked by the spicy taste, the circles of his eyes were red, as if he had been wronged a lot.

Yiqing felt a little sorry, and said apologetically, "This is salted spicy cabbage. I think you might not like it, so..."

Zheng Jingyan said: "Our family never eats spicy food, where did it come from?"

Yiqing said: "This is... brought from the Pang Mansion, not the food from the Hou Mansion. I will eat it by myself, occasionally to appetize..."

Zheng Jingyan looked up at her, his watery eyes still lingering: "You have a bad appetite? I don't see anything wrong with you."

In addition to the fresh and dried fruits on the table every day, there is also a cabinet of all kinds of snacks hidden in the room, from shelled melon seeds and nuts to refined candied fruit and even mutton and jerky diced beef from the Western Regions tribute from the palace. After dinner, her mouth is not idle when she reads books and accounts. Does she have a bad appetite?Then there is really no appetite!

But I heard Yiqing say: "Every family has different food tastes. There are many old people in the Hou's mansion, and the taste is lighter, while my family's taste is heavier. The sweetness must be too sweet, and the salty taste must be enough. Let my sister play spicy food, it can make people jump!"

A smile appeared on the corners of Zheng Jingyan's lips. After eating the sweet rolls, the spiciness in his mouth disappeared a lot, and it was no longer unbearable.

There was no one else in the room, so Zheng Jingyan said to Yiqing, "You played the song 'Taihu Beauty' yesterday at Prince Qin's Mansion, was it really you who did it?"

Yiqing smiled and asked, "I said yes, do you believe it?"

Zheng Jingyan shook his head: "Others won't believe it, but others are guessing randomly, but I know you! It doesn't matter, it's not important, as long as the emperor likes it!"

Yiqing was not convinced: "How do you know that I...can't compose that song?"

"You may be talented and smart enough, but you are not the kind of person who writes lyrics and composes music. Your mind can't calm down, and your mind is full of calculations. It is estimated that the skill of pulling the beads of the planner is higher than that of the piano!"

Yiqing burst out laughing: "Why do you look at me like this? I'm a decent person, but in your eyes, I'm so incomprehensible to Fengya?"

"I'm just afraid that if you pretend to be elegant, true and false, it will be bad if you become self-defeating!"

Zheng Jingyan said: "If it wasn't for Shou Wang's thoughts, I wouldn't want you to show up. The elite circle is the vanity fair, and it's not a good thing to be in it! If you don't have a pair of sharp eyes and the ability to protect yourself, you will easily become a The stepping stones for others to climb up may one day be used up and kicked down to the bottom of the pool, disappearing forever! I took you to Qin Wangfu yesterday, I did not expect Qin Wangfei to pull you up, but you just know how to play that song The tune, if there is one, then there is another, she will come to you again! Your name as Mrs. Rong Pinghou is probably getting louder and louder!"

Yiqing said: "I'm sorry, I don't want to be like this, I don't intend to enter your circle of powerful people, I just want to live the life I want after the agreement with you expires! But... Princess Qin said, if Prince Qin’s mansion fell out of favor and power with the emperor, and King Qin was brought down by others, and you can’t please him. If you fail, what should I do? I, I still live in your marquis’ mansion! So, I couldn’t control myself for a while , just listen to her!"

Zheng Jingyan looked at Yiqing who had restrained her smile, the rosiness on her little face had disappeared a lot, she seemed a little frightened and worried, and couldn't help comforting him gently:
"It doesn't have to be like this, it's not a big deal... What Qin Wangfei said is a bit shocking. As a prince, how can Qin Wang be brought down so easily? It's not good to talk too much about things outside, you just do it at home. Just do your own business! If Qin Wangfei has a call, you must remember to be cautious in your words and deeds. If you are unsure, you must report to Qin Wangfei to know the truth. If you are traveling with multiple princesses, you only need to follow Qin Wangfei That's it!"

Yiqing frowned and said: "Wangfei called, can I not go?"

Zheng Jingyan said: "Unless you are seriously ill, it is disrespectful to ignore the concubine's invitation! Don't worry too much, you can go immediately if the concubine Qin calls you. If other concubines call you, you should first report to the concubine Qin and tell her what to do." Our old lady and wife, and then bring enough people to follow... I will know when you go out!"

Then what?Just know it?Can you come over and accompany him to rescue him?
Thinking of Princess Qi's blatant stumbling block yesterday, and Princess Wei's sour eyes, Yiqing couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive, and looked at Zheng Jingyan eagerly:
"Should I still call it a disease? Who should live in what circle, God has already predestined, I am not suitable for the rich and powerful circle!"

Zheng Jingyan smiled wryly: "In front of Princess Qin, I will try my best to push back for you. If it really doesn't work, I'd better go... Take your time, just get used to it!"

Zheng Jingyan's prediction was not inaccurate, how could he stop and dispel Princess Qin's intention?On the contrary, he is very likely to be forced to report Yiqing's daily habits to Princess Qin, because the people from Prince Qin's mansion came almost according to the time, and Yiqing just woke up in the afternoon when she was told that Princess Qin had sent a car The horsemen came over to ask her to go to Prince Qin's mansion immediately after freshening up. Princess Qin has something to ask!

Yiqing had no choice but to follow Zheng Jingyan's confession, first to report to the old lady and the wife. The old lady and the wife naturally gave her a few words of advice, and then asked who would follow?It was appropriate to look at the entourage, so she urged her to go out quickly.

The matter Qin Wangfei asked was nothing more than the soundtrack and choreography of the song "Taihu Beauty". Yes, the musicians and song-and-dance girls in Prince Qin’s Mansion really have real talents. In just half a day, a beautiful and original Zeguo water town song and dance "Taihu Beauty" was completed. After listening to it coherently, Lian Yiqing I was touched by myself.

Princess Qin was very happy when the song and dance choreography was finished, and she left Yiqing to spend the night with dinner before going back. Yiqing couldn't refuse because she had elders at home, so she had to stay. Princess Qin told her with a smile: "Today, Ah Yan and King Qin are going out of the city. I have already returned from work, and I also stayed in the palace for dinner, wouldn't it be better for you and your husband to go home together at night?"

Yiqing thanked again: "My concubine and my husband, I have accepted the kindness of the princess!"

Qin Wangfei looked at her with a smile, and said meaningfully: "You are right to listen to me. It doesn't matter what happened to Ah Yan before, and I will be there in the future. He can't do anything to you!"

What she said was so vague that Yiqing didn't quite understand it, so she had the right to listen to it.

After dinner, Zheng Jingyan and Yiqing bid farewell to King Qin and Princess Qin. The horses and horses returned to Rongping Marquis Mansion in the thin twilight. Feeling that the carriage stopped obviously, and then started slowly again, Hua Yu opened the curtains slightly, Yiqing saw that the sky outside was completely dark, and she couldn't see anything, but heard a woman crying Gone through the window.

A light and easy-to-carry sheepskin palace lantern was lit in the carriage, which was given by Princess Qin. The light was not very bright, enough to illuminate the people in the carriage.

Yiqing looked at Hua Yu and asked, "What's going on? Don't our car bump into someone?"

Hua Yu is clever, just now she clearly saw Lord Hou get off the horse and talk to a woman holding a lamp, the cry came from that woman, she was suspicious in her heart, when she heard the young lady's question, she yelled outside :
"Young Madam asked: But our chariots and horses bumped into people? Please watch carefully!"

Immediately a voice replied: "Reporting to Young Madam: It's nothing else, it's just that a woman was trying to cross the street and accidentally bumped into a car!"

"Young Madam is frightened, it's okay, as long as you don't hurt others!"

Yiqing was funny, Hua Yu, a little girl who usually looks meek and gentle, never thought that she would be more ruthless than she really is.

The voice outside the car really became panicked: "It's Xiaoxiao's dereliction of duty, please forgive me, Young Madam! Then that girl is fine...indeed, she is fine!"

Yiqing and Huayu were biting their lips and snickering in the car, when Zheng Jingyan came to the window and asked:

"Yiqing, are you okay?"

Yiqing raised her hand to cover her mouth: "No, I'm fine!"

After hearing her voice, Zheng Jingyan asked again: "Hua Yu, what's wrong with Young Madam?"

Hua Yu rolled her eyes and said, "Our young lady was dozing off, but the car stopped, her head hit the wall, and she bit her lip!"

Yiqing stared at Hua Yu in disbelief: Damn girl!Your description can be applied to epilepsy patients, do you know?

Outside the window, Zheng Jingyan asked, "But you were injured?"

Fearing that Hua Yu would say something surprising again, Yiqing hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's just a light touch! There's not even a mark, it's okay!"

Zheng Jingyan was silent for a moment, and said, "Hua Yu, I wish you could serve the Young Madam."

He also ordered: "Gan Song, I'll leave it to you...Old Chen, drive the car at night and watch the road, let's go, let's go back home!"
