Banhua let go of his mouth, looked at the row of teeth marks on the back of Rong Xia's hand, and hummed: "If I were a pig, who are you?"

"I am just an honest pig following you..."

"Cough cough cough!"

Ban Heng felt that if he didn't make some noise to show his presence, the two people in the room would probably not be able to see him.

"Brother Heng," Banhua saw Ban Heng and moved Rong Xia to the side so that he would not block her view.

"Sister, Lord Rong," Ban Heng walked in and greeted Rong Xia with his hands in hand. Although his attitude was not perfunctory, it was definitely not enthusiastic. He looked down at Banhua lying on the bed, turned around and wanted to say something, but when he saw the bruises around Rong Xia's eyes, he swallowed his words back.

"Are you feeling better?" The room was filled with the bitter smell of medicine, and there was an empty bowl on the wooden table next to it. It was obvious that the medicine had been used.

Ban Heng hummed. Her nasal voice was a bit thick, her pale face with big eyes, and her aggrieved look made Ban Heng's heart soften immediately. He was still not sure what happened the night before yesterday, but seeing the attitude of the servants of the Rong family, his sister must have helped Rong Xia a lot.

"Father and mother are very worried about you, but they also know that Lord Rong has a stable temperament, so they are relieved that you are recuperating here." After saying this, Ban Heng turned to look at Rong Xia. , smiling politely.

Rong Xia smiled bitterly when he heard this. This sounded reassuring, but in fact it was a warning to him.

Banhua smiled sheepishly: "I made the second elder worry."

"It's okay. My mother specifically told me before I went out that you don't have to think too much and just take good care of your health." Ban Heng looked at ease, obviously he had expected Rong Xia's reaction, "Anyway, my mother said , you and I rarely have peace of mind."

Banhua didn’t think this was a compliment.

Rong Xia, who was standing next to the brother and sister, couldn't help laughing. Seeing Banhua turning to look at him, he made a fist with one hand and put it to his mouth and coughed twice, "Sorry, I..."

Banhua said tolerantly: "If you want to laugh, just laugh. Don't hold yourself back."

Rong Xia didn't laugh after all, he asked his servants to take Ban Heng to have breakfast. After Ban Heng left, he laughed again.

Ban Hua looked at him with a doting and helpless expression, her eyes seemed to say: There is really nothing I can do against you.

Seeing Banhua's look, the smile on Rong Xia's face became more obvious.

In Uncle Zhongping's Mansion, the Xie family sent away waves of doctors, but everyone's answer was the same. They were able to save the eldest son's life, but they could not save his life. Xie Jinke only has two sons and one daughter. The younger son got confused and broke his eye. Now, except for meeting some poetry and painting friends, he looks like a monk and is not interested in any emotions. Although the younger daughter appears to have married well, Prince Ning is not a caring person. Although the daughter is a princess by title, she is not as comfortable as marrying an ordinary man.

Now the eldest son...

What evil did the Xie family do? Do these unlucky things happen one after another?

"The imperial doctors in the palace can't do anything, and neither can the doctors of the Ban family." Mrs. Xie sat on the chair in a daze, "Master, what should we do?"

"Uncle, Madam," a maid hurriedly ran over, "The eldest son and the eldest grandma had a fight, the eldest son told the eldest grandma to get out."

Mrs. Xie suddenly stood up from her chair: "What about grandma?"

"Grandma is crying in the room right now," the maid said anxiously, "Go and have a look."

Although ordinary people did not know that Xie Chongjin was injured, many prominent figures in the capital heard a few words, and many people gossiped behind their backs. It was just the Xie family who pretended to be themselves. I just don’t know.

Xie Jinke and Mrs. Xie walked into the yard where the eldest son and his eldest daughter-in-law lived, and heard the eldest son smashing and cursing in the house. The eldest daughter-in-law just cried and did not speak. Mrs. Xie was worried that her eldest son would make her daughter-in-law angry if she continued like this, so she went in and said, "Chongjin, what are you doing?"

Xie Chongjin looked at Mrs. Xie with a red face, "Mother, have the bad guys caught you?"

Mrs.

"Under investigation?" Xie Chongjin laughed strangely, "I see that Jing Zhaoyi is busy worrying about Rong Junpo's case now, how can he have time to pay attention to our family?"

Mrs.

"Isn't this how the world is?" Xie Chongjin said expressionlessly, "These people will fawn over whoever is more powerful."

"It doesn't matter what the prince is, it's no big deal. Now it's Prince Ning who makes the decision." Mrs. Xie was worried that her eldest son would get into trouble, and helped him sit down on the bed. If you are angry, just tell your mother, how can you take it out on your wife?"

Grandma Xie sat in the corner wiping her tears. When she heard Mrs. Xie say these words, she didn't have much reaction.

However, for Xie Chongjin, just seeing his wives and concubines will remind him of the pain of his absence, so he doesn't want to see these women at all now. No matter how much Mrs. Xie tried to persuade him, he did not give in to his wife.

Xie Jinke and his wife came in a hurry and left in a hurry. Grandma Xie also left the yard. Thinking of what happened that day, Xie Chongjin kicked over the only stool at his feet.

Two hours later, a young man dressed as a servant ran into Xie Chongjin's yard with a look of panic on his face.

"Young Master," the boy gasped, "I found the person, but..."

"But what?" Xie Chongjin saw that the boy looked strange and asked, "Speak clearly."

"The little trustee has checked and found out that the few local gangsters who disappeared without a trace had been in contact with a man named Men San'er a few days before the accident. This Men San'er was a street fortune teller and liar with great skills. Not much, but his mouth is so powerful that it makes some old ladies and poor wives believe it." Seeing the impatient look on Xie Chongjin's face, the young man hurriedly got to the point, "I heard, this boring San'er There is a brother who works in the palace, and this brother... happens to be waiting in the palace of His Highness Prince Ning."

"Prince Ning?" Xie Chongjin was stunned, his eyes wide open like a maniac, "Why did he do this?"

How dare the young man say anything else? He said: "Maybe there is a misunderstanding..."

"What a misunderstanding," Xie Chongjin sneered, "He doesn't even give face to the important ministers in the court, so it wouldn't be surprising if he did such a thing."

There have long been rumors that King Ning likes a girl from the Shi family. However, because the prince married the eldest girl of the Shi family, it is absolutely impossible for the Shi family to have two daughters marry into the royal family. Therefore, His Majesty’s desire is not as big as that in the court. The influential Xie family got married. In terms of influence among military generals, their family is not as good as the Ban family, which is full of dandies. In terms of influence among civil servants, their family is naturally not as influential as Rong, Yao, Yan, Shi and other families. Therefore, the Xie family is the most able to contain them. Ning Wang's ambitious candidate.

After Prince Ning married his sister, he had been unhappy, and it was not surprising that he even wanted to take revenge on Xie's family. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to do such a mindless thing, but if it were Prince Ning, everything would become reasonable.

Ning Wang Jiang Luo.

"Jiang Luo..."

Xie Chongjin read the name word by word, and his teeth started to bleed. As a man, how could he not hate when something like this happened?

In the Jingting Palace, Mrs. Yin was sitting by the window embroidering a purse. She had been embroidering this purse for a long time, and she embroidered it extremely beautifully.

"Madam," her personal nanny came in. She made a gesture of silence, put her purse into the basket, covered it with a brocade handkerchief, put the basket further away, and then said, "This is I specially embroidered the wedding purse for Huahua, so I can’t let some unlucky things get on it.”

Mammy was blessed, and after Yin sat back on the chair, she whispered: "The matter has been dealt with."

There was no emotion on Yin's face: "Yeah."

"Don't worry, everything is a coincidence, no one will doubt us."

Yinshi sneered: "I'm just treating others the way they are treated, so who can I blame?"

"Madam, you are still too soft-hearted," Mammy said with some dissatisfaction, "that Mr. Xie wants to kill me."

"Softhearted?" Mrs. Yin laughed, "I'm afraid Mr. Xie won't think so."

Although their Ban family is not as good as before, as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. As long as the emperor sitting on top does not deliberately target the Ban family, they will be able to live the most comfortable life. The master is simple-minded and doesn't understand these twists and turns, so she will do these things.

In a family, there must be someone with a brain.

"Madam, where is the princess..."

"Don't worry too much," Ms. Yin shook her head, "She is a well-measured child who knows what to do and what not to do. What's more, Marquis Cheng'an is indeed a good match. After they get married, if they can have a good relationship I can feel at ease when we get along with each other."

When grandma heard this, she stopped talking.

Yin stood up and walked outside the yard, looking at the plants and trees in the yard. These were all planted by her husband according to her preferences. Throughout her life, when she was in the Yin family, she had been tortured by the back house's tricks and learned all the tricks. She thought she would be blessed to marry the eldest princess, but she would just jump from one fire pit to another. Who would have thought that she would jump into a pool of hot springs instead.

If anyone touches her hot spring, she will fight to the death.

If she had no means when she was in the Yin family, how could she have protected the dowry her mother left for her and still marry into the eldest princess's mansion with all her glory?

Everyone has a bottom line, and her bottom line is her man and children.

In the Marquis of Cheng'an Mansion, Banhua lived in those beautiful and depraved days when she could reach out for clothes and open her mouth for food. When she closed her eyes, a beautiful man would accompany her in bed, and when she opened her eyes, a beautiful man would smile at her. Although she has not officially married yet, the whole Rong family is full of them. Already considered her the mistress.

"Princess, please try this." A beautiful maid fed the peeled and seeded grapes into Banhua's mouth. There was a beauty fanning Banhua, and another beauty was holding a bottle and pinching her legs. pinch shoulders. If Banhua were a man, anyone who saw the assassin would sigh, what a lecherous man.

However, in the Cheng'an Marquis Mansion, all the beautiful maids loved to rub themselves next to Banhua, as if being able to serve Banhua was a great honor.

Ban Heng, who was sitting on the other side, peeled the grapes by himself with an expressionless face. The boy behind him stepped forward to help, but he stared back with disgust. Serving beautiful women is called fun. What's the point of letting a hard-boiled servant do this work?

He glanced at Banhua, who was lying lazily on the soft couch, and turned to listen to the female storyteller telling a story. Apart from anything else, the storyteller raised by Cheng'anhou Mansion is quite good, and the stories he tells are very novel. He has long been tired of the stories about the poor scholar, the rich lady, and the beautiful fox demon. Are all the rich ladies and demons in the world blind? The elegant young master doesn't like it, but he has to marry the poor scholar life or death?

The story of Cheng'an Hou Mansion is different. It tells the story of a poor scholar who worked hard to make progress, and finally came back to marry his childhood sweetheart. There are also stories about a poor scholar who peeked at the beauty of a rich lady and was beaten with a stick in the end before he could get into the examination. As for the beautiful fox demon, she naturally played tricks on the outstanding-looking scholar and then disappeared into the mountains. She would never turn into an ordinary person to sew and cook.

"Okay, that's what it tastes like," Ban Heng said, slapping his thigh. "Such a poor scholar should be punished severely. This story is interesting!" He took out two pieces of silver from his wallet and gave it to the storyteller. , "Tell us another one tomorrow."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The storyteller thanked him and put the money away close to his body.

Banhua was not as responsive as Ban Heng. After hearing the stories Rong Xia told, she felt that other stories were too ordinary. Fortunately, Rong Xia has time recently, so he talks to her and tells stories to pass the time.

Just as he was thinking about it, Rong Xia walked in. He was dressed in a white and silver satin robe, and his hair was tied with a jade crown. He looked fresh and elegant.

Nowadays, some celebrities pursue clothes that are not tied around the waist and hair that is not tied around the crown, thinking that this is the only way to be elegant and comfortable. However, Banhua still admires this kind of noble man who is neatly dressed and has his hair **** meticulously, because only such a person can make her have the urge to open his clothes and look at his collarbone.

For those with disheveled hair, she was always worried that their hair would be tangled or stained with dust. As long as she thought of this, she would no longer be able to appreciate such handsome men.

Seeing his sister's eyes falling on Rong Xia, Ban Heng lowered his head and continued peeling grapes.

He was still glad that this was his sister and not his brother. Otherwise, if they develop such a beautiful temperament, the coffin boards of their ancestors may not be able to cover them.

Seeing Rong Xia coming over, the beautiful maids who were still surrounding Banhua hurriedly stepped aside, bowed their waists and lowered their heads, not daring to take another look.

Ban Hua was lying on the couch with her chin in one hand and didn't bother to get up when she saw Rong Xia: "Didn't you go to see Commander Chen?"

"He said that the case has been investigated. I thought you might also be interested in this case, so I came over to ask you." Rong Xia glanced at the maids who were standing quietly with their heads bowed, and said with a smile, "It seems that you I get along very well with the maid in my mansion."

"Maybe it's because I like beauties, and beauties also like me?" Banhua sat up straight, took out the handle mirror from under the soft pillow, looked at herself a few times, and made sure her hair was not messed up. He stood up and said, "It's only been a few days and he has found out?"

Rong Xia held her hand. It was hot in summer, but he had a constitution that was warm in winter and cool in summer.

Banhua's hot hand was held by Rong Xia, and a slight coolness spread into her palm. She raised an eyebrow and glanced at Rong Xia, smiled, and did not break away from his hand.

"I..." Ban Heng looked at the two people leaving and wanted to say "I want to go too," but he didn't have the chance to say it. He thought for a moment and simply stopped asking, choosing to follow him shamelessly.

Some things become no longer a big deal once you get used to them.

The only sequelae is probably that he wants to get a wife.

The two of them walked outside the door of the living room. Rong Xia glanced at Banhua and let go of her hand with some reluctance. He thought with some regret that if they were married now, he would hold Huahua's hand and appear in front of everyone openly, and he wouldn't worry about anyone making irresponsible remarks.

"I've seen the Marquis, Princess, and Prince Ban." When the officials headed by Commander Chen saw them coming in, they stood up and saluted.

"You are welcome, sir. Please take a seat." Rong Xia and Banhua walked into the room. Banhua sat down next to him without speaking.

"The princess felt cold a few days ago, and the officials and others did not give you a proper greeting. I wonder how your health is now?" Commander Chen hugged Banhua, "Your Majesty is very worried about your health. He said that after you recover, go into the palace to see him."

"It's much better now," Banhua coughed twice, "Your Majesty is worried."

Chen Tong saw that Princess Fule was indeed more energetic than the last time he saw her, so he felt relieved: "I am here today to report on the murderer's case."

The tea cup that Rong Xia picked up was put down again: "I wonder who has such a grudge against Rong?"

Commander Chen mentioned the name of a person who was the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and was an old member of the Yan family before they lost power.

"It's him?" Rong Xia frowned, "Rong just found out that some of his account books were unclear in the official department. After he sorted it out, Rong never mentioned it again. Unexpectedly, he still Hold a grudge."

"The Marquis is a good gentleman, how can he guess the thoughts of these villains?" Commander Chen said with a smile, "Please rest assured, the Marquis, Your Majesty will not spare this person lightly."

Rong Xia still looked shocked and sad. Commander Chen just nodded silently no matter what he said.

Seeing his shocked look, Chen Tong sighed in his heart. He was just a scapegoat, but he couldn't involve the people behind him, so he could only be traced to him.

In this case, Jing Zhaoyi and Liu Banshan did not dare to speak easily, and they had no objection when Chen Tong led the case. Nowadays, anyone with a brain can guess that this matter is probably related to the fight for the throne, otherwise His Majesty would not send someone he trusts to take charge of the case.

To elaborate, Commander Chen should not be responsible for this case. However, in the name of caring for his ministers, His Majesty insists on letting Commander Chen take charge of the case. What can others say?

Poor Marquis Rong was so loyal to His Majesty that he almost died under the knife of a killer and did not get any justice.

Jing Zhaoyi looked at Rong Xian, who was a little sentimental, and immediately sympathized with him even more. It was better not to know some things, but knowing them would only make him more troubled.

"I see that Lord Rong's injury has improved a lot. I wonder when he will return to court?" Chen Tong asked, "After all, the current Minister of the Ministry of Personnel is only a temporary deputy. There are many things that you have to deal with personally."

"I also ask for your forgiveness. I have been in low energy recently, and my injury has not healed yet. I may not be able to be loyal to your Majesty for a while. Please forgive me."

Commander Chen nodded silently: "Don't worry, I will convey your wishes to His Majesty."

Now that King Ning in Chao Zhong is becoming more and more powerful, His Majesty can no longer sit still. He wanted to return to the court as Marquis An and suppress Prince Ning's morale, but looking at the pale appearance of Marquis Rong, he probably couldn't work too hard in a short time.

After these people left, Banhua sneered lazily, patted Rong Xia on the shoulder and said, "Don't take it too seriously, people should look forward, and don't ruin your mood for unnecessary people and things. But it would be too difficult for you to treat this as unnecessary."

She looked at Rong Xian, who was looking a little depressed, stretched out her index finger and pinched his nose: "Come on, little handsome boy, give your sister a smile."

Rong Xia smiled.

"That's right," Banhua pulled him up from the chair, "A few days ago I saw that the lotus flowers in the lotus pond were blooming just right. You come with me to see them."

"Okay."

After Commander Chen returned to Dayue Palace, he reported the matter to Emperor Yunqing.

After hearing that Rong Xia could not return to the court for the time being, Emperor Yun Qing frowned slightly: "It's been almost two months, and his injury hasn't healed yet? Is the injury not healed, or is he blaming me?"

"Your Majesty, I have been injured for a hundred days. When I look at Lord Rong's face, I think it's really not good," Chen Tong said. Falling and beating."

"Are you complaining that I had someone beat you up at the end of last year?"

Commander Chen was stunned for a moment, not expecting that His Majesty would even think of this matter. When the eldest princess Dening was assassinated, both he and Shi Jin suffered. When Shi Jin was able to ride a horse, he was still "lying" on the bed, so there were rumors outside that he was dying.

In fact, for many days afterwards, he helped His Majesty handle some matters that could not be dealt with openly, so after he was reinstated, many people came to congratulate him.

Kneeling on one knee in front of His Majesty to apologize, Commander Chen said: "Your Majesty, I have no such intention."

"No?" Emperor Yun Qing sneered, "I know you are all complaining about me and hating me for being unreasonable. But this world is an unreasonable place."

"Get out." Emperor Yunqing didn't know what he was thinking of, so he picked up the dragon-head crutch and hit Commander Chen on his body, "Go and kneel outside."

Chen Tong lowered his head and said, "Yes."

"Wait a minute," Emperor Yunqing called to Commander Chen, "have all those killers been dealt with?"

"Your Majesty, these killers have committed suicide in the prison of Dali Temple," Commander Chen knelt back to his original position, "Please don't worry."

"Yes." Emperor Yun Qing nodded, "Has the prince ever regretted it?"

Commander Chen sneered in his heart, regretting it? A good son will be tortured to a state of disgrace by you. Why should anyone regret it now?

Do you regret having an affair with your concubine? Or do you not dare to become too famous and make the emperor jealous?

But there is no shortage of beauties in the East Palace, but there is a shortage. As long as the prince speaks, many people will naturally try their best to send beauties into the palace. Why would he have an affair with his concubine? Does Your Majesty really not understand, or is he pretending not to understand?

His Majesty is getting old and he is afraid that his son will become more powerful than him, so he pretends to believe that the prince has done these things and takes the opportunity to destroy the prince's prestige among the people.

If you treat your son like this, how does your Majesty treat your subordinates?

Cheng'an Hou Mansion received countless gifts again, this time it was a surprise visit gift.

There are all kinds of gifts from literati, courtiers, young ladies, nobles, and some even specially prepared generous gifts for Banhua. It seemed that the news that she was recuperating in the Marquis Mansion of Cheng'an and had saved Rong Xia on a rainy night had finally spread.

Why else would it be that when so many people give gifts, they don’t say anything about them, but there are things in them that only women like to use?

"Master Marquis, Princess, Prince Changqing is here."

Banhua put down the gift list in his hand and said to Rong Xia, "Is Brother Batsu here?"

Hearing what Ban Hua said, Rong Xia couldn't help but smile. Before he could get up, another boy came in.

"Master Marquis, the eldest son of Prince Ning is here to visit with a gift."

Banhua put down the gift list and narrowed his eyes at Rong Xia with a smile, "The pig and dog legs are here too."
