Ruan's wife is pregnant

Chapter 184 Someone Follows
Generally speaking, if a woman is willing to go all out, it is very scary.

Ruan Cailing looked down at the tea stalk in the teacup and said calmly, "Ninglu should be afraid, Shen Yunyun dares to fight directly with married people, completely disregarding friendship, Ninglu is not as simple as a rival in love to her."

Maybe Shen Yunyun would be soft-hearted towards Xie Qingyuan, but not at all towards Ninglu.

In Shen Yunyun's heart, as long as Ninglu exists for a day, it shows how stupid she was, so she will never let Ninglu live, Ruan Cailing seemed to remember something, and asked Su Yi.

"Didn't it mean that some time ago, the staff who followed the Ninth Prince, Mr. Wang, came to Fengyue Tower? Who is accompanying him?"

The Ninth Prince Mu Yichen has many aides. This Lord Wang's official position is not very high, so there are not many people staring at Lord Wang. At the beginning, even Gu Jinxi didn't know that he was actually Mu Yichen's person. When Ruan Xuchen entered the palace that day, he happened to see Lord Wang walking back from Mu Yichen's palace.

Originally, it was normal for a person with an official position to go in and out of the palace, but it was abnormal to sneak around the small alleys!
When Ruan Xuchen mentioned it to Gu Jinxi, he also had a confused expression on his face. This Lord Wang seldom talked when he was in court, and he never said anything. He just followed what others said, but he never thought about it. However, this kind of person was able to stay by Mu Yichen's side for so long.

It was also from that time that Gu Jinxi arranged for someone to follow Mrs. Wang.

Su Yi thought for a long time before remembering who Ruan Cailing was referring to as Lord Wang, rolled his eyes, and said for a long time, "I seem to have been here before. There were quite a lot of people in the room at that time. I was in another room at that time, so I don't know much, if the concubine Shizi wants to know, can I find someone to ask?"

Ruan Cailing shook her head, "No."

If that woman is Mrs. Wang's concubine, she would attract attention if asked.

"I'm just asking. Jinxi's people are always by Wang Chong's side, but Wang Chong doesn't seem to have any other hobbies. He spends most of his time in Fengyue Tower, and the rest of the time he's either at court or at home. With my concubine."

Speaking of which, this Wang Chong is quite strange.

There are so many concubines, but not a single wife.

"Not without it." Qing Qing drank a jug of wine, her cheeks were bright red, and when she mentioned Wang Chong, she remembered the past.

Ruan Cailing raised her eyebrows, "Oh? He has a famous wife? But why haven't I heard of it? I haven't received any news at all!"

The reason why Qingqing was placed in Fengyue Tower is because this kind of identity is not good enough to attract suspicion. As a man, if he drinks a lot, he can talk about everything and hear more.

When Ruan Cailing asked Su Yi just now, Qingqing heard it.

"Actually, Wang Chong is just a ninth-rank sesame official. If it wasn't because he happened to help the ninth prince during a certain grand ceremony, he would not have been discovered." Qing Qing said in a frivolous tone.

Up to now, Wang Chong is only a fifth-rank official, and he only works in the capital.

Before coming to the capital, Wang Chong had a married wife, but after he came to the capital, he thought his wife was not beautiful enough to be on the stage, and insisted on divorcing her. guilty.

So there was really no other way, he could only marry one concubine left and one concubine right, and in the end his wife was so mad that he died.

After that, Wang Chong never married another wife, but there were many concubines.

Speaking of this, Ruan Cailing also discovered a very interesting thing. Generally speaking, the higher the official position, the fewer people around him. For example, his father and King Xuan only have one wife in this life.

What's more, even a person like Lin Yicheng treats his wife very well, and it is quite normal for him to be surrounded by two or three concubines.

"I used to accompany Wang Chong once, but only once. After Cheng Xuan came to the capital, I didn't accompany anyone else."

Ruan Cailing was quite interested, so she asked, "Did Wang Chong say anything in court?"

Qing Qing nodded, "No wonder this Wang Chong is only a fifth-rank official, and he speaks out of secrets, and doesn't care about the face of the current emperor, and I heard that Wang Chong has a very close relationship with a concubine in the harem."

Has a close relationship with the concubine in the harem?Ruan Cailing's eyes widened, "No way? What kind of relationship is so profound!"

"It's the one you want, Crown Princess."

Ruan Cailing, "..."

This Wang Chong is also very courageous, he is really not afraid of death!
"Let's just listen to what the neighbor said. We'll talk about the rest after the matter subsides." Ruan Cailing took a sip from her teacup.

Xie Qingyuan hugged Ninglu for a long time, and finally saw that Ninglu stopped crying, and the two stayed together for a long time. Xie Qingyuan calculated that the time was almost up, so he said to Ninglu, "I have to go back, Anyang should go back now. back home"

As soon as Xie Qingyuan mentioned Princess Anyang, Ninglu's face changed again. She pushed Xie Qingyuan away, "You only have that delicate princess in your heart! I've been gone for a long time!"

"Ninglu, stop messing around. I have successfully established a relationship with the Ninth Prince Mu Yichen, and I have become the Ninth Prince's staff. My future is sure to be prosperous! But I still need Princess Anyang to be my stepping stone, you And rest assured, as long as my official career goes well, you will be the future Da Furen! Any first-rank madam is yours!"

Listening to Xie Qingyuan's coaxing here, although Ning Lu feels at ease, she is still afraid.

Fear of Shen Yunyun is a lesson from the past.

After taking advantage of Shen Yunyun, Xie Qingyuan is so unkind, there is no guarantee that she will not be like Shen Yunyun in the future, it seems that she has to find a way out for herself.

"Okay then, let's go, but this time..." Before Ning Lu finished speaking, Xie Qingyuan immediately took out a string of agate beads from his bosom and handed them to Ning Lu, "Look, this is the agate pearl in the palace. The red agate beads that have been handed down! Look at the fineness!"

Ruan Cailing didn't bother to listen to the latter words.

It was completely dark before Ruan Cailing left Fengyue Tower, Qing Rui asked, "Miss, are you going home now?"

"No, I still have some things to do." Ruan Cailing said to Jiang Chen after getting into the carriage, "Go to the Yanhua Building."

In the Banquet Building, Xiyin was settling accounts behind the counter. He knew that the person who came was Ruan Cailing before he heard the footsteps, and said without raising his head, "Why are you here at this time? By the way, the third prince came earlier. I had a drink here at that time, and said it was going to be charged to your account."

Ruan Cailing, "..."

On her account?Why should it be counted on her account?
Xiyin handed over an account book, and pointed to a line of words with a red circle on it. Ruan Cailing raised her eyebrows and looked at it. It turned out that it was the account of Mu Yizuo's recent dinner at Yanhualou, with food and wine.

It seems that Mu Yizuo has a good appetite!

Ruan Cailing rolled her eyes and threw it back. Xiyin took it and said with a smile, "I have to say, this third prince is not an ordinary person! Haha, you are here to drink tea and watch a play, or to talk about something."

Ruan Cailing knocked on the counter a few times, and Xiyin stopped the hand that was fiddling with the abacus.

"Then please go upstairs, Ling Feng, our lady is here, serve good wine and food, Qing Rui will help your lady go up."

Xiyin spoke this remark in a particularly loud voice, as if it was intended to be heard.

"Miss, what happened to Xiyin? Why did you suddenly shout so loudly?" Qing Rui asked strangely as she helped Ruan Cailing upstairs.

Ruan Cailing glanced at the back, "You didn't notice this way, did Jiang Chen drive the carriage faster and slower?"

"That's true, I still want to ask him." Qing Rui said.

At this moment, Jiang Chen hadn't gone upstairs to tie the carriage, so Qing Rui couldn't ask Jiang Chen.

Ruan Cailing said, "There is a tail behind us, and we have followed all the way from Fengyue Tower. I'm not sure who it is, but I've guessed it pretty close."

"Ah! Follow someone! Who is it?" Frightened, Qing Rui quickly grabbed Ruan Cailing's hand.

Ruan Cailing comforted Qing Rui, "They didn't dare to get so close. When we came in just now, did the few big men who walked in behind us see it? It's that group of people."

The few big men are quite normal, the problem is that their sabers are all the same, and it looks like they were all issued uniformly.

Probably people from the East and West factories.

Now, the West Factory is under the jurisdiction of Gu Jinxi and Ruan Xuchen, and almost all of them belong to them, while the East Factory and the Guards are almost all Mu Yichen's.

Because of this, Mu Yichen dared to act unscrupulously.

The people from Xichang don't need to follow her, and Gu Jinxi doesn't need these people to protect her, it's enough to have Jiang Chen, Xiyin and others by her side.

So it could only be someone from the Imperial Guard or Dongchang.

"After a while, when you go upstairs, you will close the curtains and lay out the blankets to ensure that there will be no sound in the room." Ruan Cailing said to Qing Rui.

Qing Rui nodded cautiously, "Yes, I understand."

When Ling Feng came to serve snacks, Ruan Cailing sat on the bench, looked at the performers below, and asked Ling Feng, "This person is very unfamiliar, new here?"

Ling Feng said, "Yes, I just came from a foreign country a few days ago, and I just came to our Yanhua Building after wandering all the way. Xiyin said that he has a good voice and a nice rhythm, so he stayed. I haven't had time to tell the lady."

Ruan Cailing shook her round fan to let out some wind, but said nothing else. When Ling Feng had arranged everything, she gave Ruan Cailing a look. Ruan Cailing lowered her head and said to Qing Rui, "You are right here Stay in your room and don't go anywhere."

"Yes."

Afterwards, Ruan Cailing got up from the fence, went to the center of the room and was picked up by Ling Feng. Qing Rui opened the high cabinet with blankets in the room. Ling Feng carried Ruan Cailing and stepped in. There was actually a downward staircase inside!
When Qing Rui closed the cabinet door again, it was as quiet as if there was no one in the room.

Ruan Cailing sighed in Ling Feng's arms.
