Chapter 68

When Dongqiao returned to the courtyard, he was about to enter the back room when he was stopped by the cool wind.

"Miss just fell asleep, and I haven't been in a good mood these days." Liangfeng said, seeing the snack in Dongqiao's hand, he took a piece consciously, and took a bite out of it.

Dongqiao pulled Liangfeng back to the small wing where the two lived, opened the door, and then hurriedly shouted: "Cui Jing is back!" She swallowed it, choking her so much that she almost couldn't carry it. It took a long time before her eyes widened: "What? He's back? Where's the young master?"

Dongqiao poured hot tea for her and said, "The Eldest Young Master will come too. I can see it for real. When we were in the corridor, Cui Jing and the Eldest Young Master came together." Qingmei lived in the back yard, It is next to the lake and the small garden in the backyard of the Lin Mansion, while Lin Yuanhui lives not far from Lin Shangshu's study. There is a small garden between the two, so if they don't deliberately drop by, they will hardly see each other.

Holding the tea in his hand, Liangfeng sat down on the side full of thoughts, without saying a word for a long time.Dongqiao didn't speak, and the room was silent for a while.

Cui Jing always got up early, and was practicing with a silver gun in Lin Yuanhui's yard.The little maids surrounded her in a circle, it seemed that every woman had a hero complex hidden in her heart, pink bubbles were floating in the air.

After Lin Yuanhui went to greet Lin Shangshu and Mrs. Xu, he went directly to Qingyou's small courtyard.

"Mother found a good family for you, and I came back in a hurry and didn't bring any good things." Then, he took out a small box, "This should be a dowry for you."

Qingyou's eyes were red, she and Lin Yuanhui's biological mothers went away when they were both young, and the two had the same illness and sympathy for each other, so they naturally got closer.

"Brother...you've lost weight over the years." Qingyou took the box, and when her hand sank, she knew that the box looked small but was actually quite heavy. "How many days can I stay at home this time?"

"Why do you have to watch my sister get married before leaving, and I have to carry you on the sedan chair." He said, looked at the person opposite, and smiled, "Well, it's okay, I can still carry it."

"Pfft..." The little maid couldn't help herself, and almost laughed out loud, which made Qing You blush again.Lin Yuanhui also laughed abhorrently, talked to her for a while, and then left.

As soon as he returned to the courtyard, he heard a burst of applause in the courtyard, Cui Jing was holding a spear flower with one hand.

"Lieutenant Cui, what can I do in this small courtyard?" Lin Yuanhui respected Cui Jing in addition to his brotherly love.He has been in the border town for many years. Although he is in the military camp, what he actually does is arrange food and grass in the rear and supervise the defense of the city.And Cui Jing came up from a small soldier, in other words, he was doing the business of beheading people.

Cui Jing smiled and said: "It's okay, your yard is quite spacious." After speaking, he put the silver gun aside, went back and changed his clothes.

"It's the first time you've come to the capital, so I'll take you for a walk today." Lin Yuanhui was talking when he saw a slim figure approaching, holding a small incense burner on a wooden plate in his hand.Lin Yuanhui felt a little familiar, and couldn't help asking: "Are you..."

The woman in green smiled slightly: "My servant, Lan Xin, this is the incense burner specially sent by the madam. It is filled with spices newly prepared by the incense house. The smell is very light, and it has the effect of calming the mind."

Lin Yuanhui sniffed slightly, and the aroma came out, "That's right, let's put it in the house."

Lan Xin raised her eyes and bent them into a crescent shape, and bowed her body: "Yes."

Cui Jing stood not far away, squinted slightly to watch this scene, rolled his eyes, and felt a little clear in his heart.

—— Mrs. Lin, she still feels sorry for her eldest son, and sent such a beautiful woman to serve her.

After leaving Lin's mansion, Lin Yuanhui took Cui Jing to visit the famous scenery in Beijing.

"I haven't been back for a long time, and Beijing is quite prosperous." Lin Yuanhui sighed, "I still remember that there is an old shop walking in here. Although it is located in a quiet alley, the wine in that shop is excellent." As he spoke, he rode his horse towards the alley and asked, "What do you need to do this time?" After all, Cui Jing always had something to prepare in advance, and it was not like him to suddenly decide to go to a certain place. style.

Cui Jing was taken aback, and changed the subject calmly, "There are some things, but there is no rush. Look what's over there, it's quite quiet."

Lin Yuanhui looked in the direction he pointed and said, "That's also the official residence, it should be the prime minister's residence."

"Prime Minister? Is it Prime Minister Liu or the others?"

There are five prime ministers in this dynasty, Lin Yuanhui thought for a while and was a little uncertain, so he walked a few steps closer and said: "It is Liu Xiangfu."

Cui Jing smiled knowingly, "Okay, let's stop blocking other people's doors."

Just as he was talking, a small pink sedan chair was slowly carried past the horse, and stopped at the small side door of the Liu Mansion.The cool autumn wind blew by, and a corner of the car curtain blew up, and the woman in the car sat quietly, holding a round fan in her hand.

"Mother Liu, can I come in?"

The old mother who was talking with the door immediately turned her head, and rushed back in fright, "Miss, why did you open the curtain!" Saying that, she glanced at Cui Jing who was sitting on the horse beside her.

The person inside the sedan chair laughed and said, "What if you get suffocated in the sedan chair if you don't open it? Your lady didn't get sunburned to death in summer, but she will be suffocated to death in the sedan chair in autumn."

"..."

Ms. Liu wanted to kill her head on, so she could just talk nonsense at home, and there was a strange man standing beside her!

The person in the sedan chair asked again: "Can I go in?"

"Menzi said, Ms. Liu has been feeling unwell for the past few days, so she won't see us."

As soon as the words were finished, the person sitting in the sedan chair suddenly came out, and Mother Liu almost jumped up in fright: "Miss, miss, go back and sit down."

But the lady didn't listen, "Hey, I've been sitting all the way, I'm almost suffocated." Just as she was talking, she suddenly saw a tall horse standing not far away, with a handsome young man sitting on it.

Cui Jing happened to be slightly attracted by what she said just now, and was looking this way.I saw a woman in a yellow shirt with big eyes wandering around, she was indescribably playful and cute.

"Brother Cui, I found that old shop!" Lin Yuanhui shouted in the distance, Cui Jing smiled and rode away.

"Miss!" Mother Liu said, and finally summoned her young lady's soul back.

The woman in the yellow shirt blinked, "The little man's horse is a thousand-mile horse. In this capital, apart from the imperial palace, the only ones who are famous are the Jade Lion in Lin Mansion, Zhao Ye in Xie Wang's Mansion, and Lightning in An Mansion. , the fifth princess's Zi Xiao only has four horses, but today I saw a good horse that is not inferior to them. And judging from the appearance of the little man riding the horse just now, if he went to the hunting in Muchun Mountain... ..."

Mother Liu sighed helplessly: "Miss, I'm here with you."

The woman in the yellow shirt also imitated her and sighed helplessly, frowning: "If you let me go to see the horse, the fifth brother will not be demoted two levels by the emperor. That pig's head is waiting for you under the eyes of Prince Xie." Masai was in the cavalry sent to the border town, and I said he deserved to be demoted! Well, since Miss Liu doesn't see us, let's stop sticking to other people's cold asses."

After finishing speaking, he ordered the bearer to carry the sedan chair, and walked away unsteadily.

When Cui Jing was visiting the capital with Lin Yuanhui, the steward of Prince Xie's mansion obeyed Xie Yunzhao's order and brought medicinal materials to greet the future princess.

Qingmei is now confined in the room by a sick cat whose teeth have been pulled out.

"This is the new white fox blanket that the prince got this year, and it was specially sent to the girl. It's cold, and the girl has to take care of herself." Through the screen, Manager Li dutifully conveyed cordial greetings for his prince.

It's strange to say, since Xie Yunzhao came back from the Princess Mansion, he only sent people to look at it every day, but he himself didn't come once.

Lin Shangshu and Mrs. Xu praised, the prince is really a man of etiquette.Although Qingmei had already been assigned to him, she hadn't been married after all, and her daughter's family's reputation was well taken care of.Regarding this, a certain woman on the sickbed yelled hoarsely: "He is also the one who took advantage of the opportunity in the princess mansion!!" Unfortunately, it was buried by the praise...

"My lord said it." Li Da's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he was very disciplined, and said slowly: "If the girl has something to say to him, you can ask the younger one to take it back. If the girl is shy and doesn't want to say it, You can write a letter or draw a picture for a while."

The little green plum girl behind the screen:! ! ! !
After a while, the white fox blanket flew out from inside.

The maidservants around were holding back their laughter and it was so painful.

Manager Li pretended he didn't see it: "The little one has resigned."

Half a month passed, and in December, Qingmei's illness finally recovered before Qingyou got married.The people in the courtyard did not dare to relax and dressed her warmly.

Qingyou's marriage was extremely lively, outside the house, Xu Shi and Qingran had already cried several times inside the house, and the new bride Qingyou couldn't stop crying, which made the old mothers on the side try to persuade her, and ordered the maid to take it. powder and rouge to touch up her makeup.Qingmei stood quietly in the corner, not to cause trouble for everyone.

Finally when the auspicious time came, Lin Yuanhui carried his younger sister on his back. When he thought that he was so beautiful, so gentle, a girl who could not be described by any good words, and now he was going to give it to a brat, he had a feeling of wanting to flatter her. human impulse.

Finally, the bride was sent into the bridal sedan chair, blowing and beating all the way towards the palace.Even though Qingmei's emotional line is very weak, she can't help feeling a little sigh when she looks at the bustling crowd around her.

Mother Zhang didn't dare to let her stand outside, and said in a low voice: "Miss, let's go back. There is also a banquet in the inner courtyard, and the wives and ladies from all the prefectures will go there later. You are a prostitute, so you have to support yourself I won’t be able to return to my room for a while, so go back and gather some energy now.”

Qingmei nodded, and walked in with Zhang's mother.

Going around the rockery behind the screen, Qingmei walked into Chaoshou Corridor, just separated by a few old pines, Cui Jing in the opposite corridor was going out from the inside.Hastily walking, but suddenly stopped towards the opposite person as if with a heartbeat.

Qingmei stared at him blankly, her eyes gradually turned from surprise to appreciation, and finally she showed a bright smile.

"Brother Cui, what are you looking at?" Lin Yuanhui changed his clothes and wiped away his tears. After walking a few steps, he saw Cui Jing stuck in the corridor and stopped moving.

"Ah?" Cui Jing snapped back to his senses, and said with a slight smile, "The scenery in your mansion is very good, and you can't even see these pine trees on the border of the city." Lin Yuanhui looked towards the opposite side suspiciously, and saw a group of guests bustling towards the flower hall And go, really do not see what content.He turned back to look at Cui Jing, but the man had already left the gate and went to watch the excitement.

When Qingmei returned to the small courtyard, Liangfeng Dongqiao silently kept silent, which made Zhang's mother feel agitated - in a year, she had never seen Qingmei smiling so brightly at anyone!

"Miss..." Zhang's mother felt that she was a dead pig and she was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water, so she bravely stepped forward, "Young master across the corridor just now, do you know him?"

No one answered.

Qingmei didn't pay attention to it at all, just kept rummaging through things in her big wooden box.

"Miss, what are you looking for?" Zhang's mother looked at her nervously, and said in her heart: Don't be a token of love, my heart can take it, but Xie Wangye's heart can't take it!

The room was silent all the time, Qingmei buried her head and turned over things intently, for a long time, she finally let out a long sigh of relief: "Phew... finally found it!"

Zhang's mother fixed her eyes - letter!She opened her mouth wide in shock and yelled: "Miss!" She was so frightened that Qingmei almost fell into the box!

Clutching the letter, Qingmei walked to the side, and said to Liangfeng, "Let me meet him as soon as possible. Since he came back with Lin Yuanhui, he will definitely go with him. There are only seven or eight days left."

Zhang's mother supported the wall in despair, she didn't care about anything!If you want to die, everyone will be strangled to death by Lord Xie!
And in Xie Wang's mansion an hour later, Steward Li's expression was not very good either.Although at the beginning he was very disdainful of the behavior of the prince of his family who took advantage of the lack of manpower for the second girl of the Lin family to plant a few hidden stakes in it, but now it seems——

"...The fourth girl passed by a strange man surnamed Cui and suddenly stopped, smiling brightly..."

Damn him!
How to report this kind of news to Xie Yunzhao? !
