I was Idle and Cool Chapter 46: Hooked
In the matter of Yin Liu'er, the master-servant duo had a plan for a long time.
As early as the news from the Yongning Princess Mansion came, Qing Que had expected that Lu Jinxi would not put this matter on hold for too long, so she was not surprised to listen to her at this moment.
"The slave will contact you later, and I will report to you in the evening."
Lu Jinxi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
She moved forward, following the road she came from, all the way around the martial arts field in front of Xue Tingzhi's courtyard, and after a few paths ahead, she had to go back to her east courtyard from the side of the garden.
I never thought, just walking to the garden, someone saw her on the other side of the corridor, so he said hello: "Oh, it's rare to see, it's actually the second sister-in-law came out."
A delicate voice, but there are thorns in the words.
Lu Jinxi has not been here long, but she is still familiar with the voice.
She paused in her footsteps, looked back, and saw Wei Xian wearing a red woven gold jacket, a turquoise blue skirt, holding a bamboo mud gold fan of the Xiangfei Concubine in her hand, and walking down the corridor steps, there was a period of time. The romantic attitude of a noble girl.
So he smiled: "It turned out to be the third younger brother and sister, are you also out to visit the garden?"
Weixian is wearing light makeup today.
She glanced behind Lu Jinxi, already clinging to the fan, and when she came to her, she raised her eyebrows and snorted.
"Of course I'm an idler, and I can't compare to second sister-in-law, you are in charge of every day."
"Looking at the direction where the second sister-in-law came, it looks like the eldest son's yard. I heard that the eldest sister-in-law also invited the eldest son to bring a ghost hand Zhang, which spread all over the house."
"I don't know, but when you are the second sister-in-law, you have bad intentions and want to harm others!"
Lu Jinxi was startled when she heard the words, then laughed.
She knew that changing her attitude towards Xue Tingyi would definitely attract others' discussion. But they didn't expect that if they could guess like this, they could all lead to harm.
Especially Wei Xian...
The attitude of this third sibling is really interesting.
Lu Jinxi's gaze swept across her face calmly, and she smiled half-truth.
"The eldest son is also in the blood of the general. I've been ill for a while, but I can finally see it. I don't care what others say. However, I didn't know that the three younger siblings care about me so much."
"Cough cough!"
The first half of her words were fine, but the word "concerned" suddenly popped up in the second half. Wei Xian didn't expect it, a breath stuck in his throat, and he coughed.
The face of a pink and white melon seed turned red, and the two almond eyes stared at Lu Jinxi angrily.
Seeing her appearance, Lu Jinxi almost couldn't help laughing: "Third siblings, are you all right?"
"cough cough..."
I almost coughed up tears.
Weixian pointed to Lu Jinxi and wanted to speak, but the treasure beside her hurriedly stretched out her hand to give her Shunqier, persuading: "You can be as smooth as possible, and then as smooth as possible."
It took quite a while for Wei Xian to take his breath away, looking at Lu Jinxi's eyes almost burning with fire, and said loudly: "You did it on purpose!"
"How can I be intentional?"
Lu Jinxi sighed lowly.
"But looking at the reaction of my younger brother and sister, it doesn't seem like I care about me. It turns out that I am self-indulgent."
This face of Mrs. Lu has a gentle and weak state. She only lowered her eyebrows and her eyes were so low that her mood was as faint as smoke, and her grief was as light as mist, which made it not shocking to see.
Weixian almost fainted when he saw it!
It's not like she hasn't seen her stern words, and she scolded her in a few words. Now pretending to look like this little white flower, you are lying!
If it weren't for her having other intentions today, she made a special trip here to wait for Lu Jinxi, and she would just leave with something to smear her face at this moment.
But right now, I can only force myself to calm down.
Yes, calm down.
Weixian's fingers were clenched tightly, and he only squeezed the Xiangfei Bamboo Mud Gold Fan, gnashing his teeth in his heart, but forced a smile on his face.
"What did the second sister-in-law say?"
"It's just that I didn't have a good relationship with the second sister-in-law in the past, so it was a little unexpected to hear the second sister-in-law say such things suddenly."
"In my heart, of course I also care about the second sister-in-law."
Yo, I'm still gasping.
Lu Jinxi felt more and more interesting.
She remembered something she had thought about a while ago.
Sister Lang doesn't seem to be very close to the original body. The reason for this is that she has not heard any rumors so far. On the contrary, when he was going to the Taishi Mansion to celebrate his birthday that day, when he and Wei Xian went to the car, I heard her talk twice, as if she knew something.
After returning, Lu Jinxi planned to find a time to visit this third sibling and ask the matter clearly.
Now that I have encountered it, I will save her another trip.
As a result, the light in her eyes became softer. As he moved, he walked down the corridor with Wei Xian very naturally.
"The sister-in-law was supposed to be close."
"In the past, I didn't understand this truth, and the two of us were at odds with each other. Again, I've been sick for a while, and I can think more clearly about many things."
"The grievances of the past, please don't take the three brothers and sisters to heart."
When Wei Xian heard this, the corners of his eyes jumped and he almost rolled his eyes: Let go of the grievances? In the past, it was her who bullied Lu Jinxi. Why did she listen to her, as if she was Wei Xian who was bullied in the past?
I didn't know what to say for a while, she could only scolded Lu Jinxi in her heart that her brain must have burned out.
Lu Jinxi didn't seem to know what she was thinking at all, and continued to walk forward, but her face was slowly covered with a light worry, and she changed the conversation.
"The third siblings also know that in the past, I was self-pity and only cared about my own sadness. Instead, I forgot that there were such a few children under my knees."
"Now that I have recovered from my illness, I find that Sister Lang is not close to me."
"I went to Taishi's house to pray for the birthday that day. My younger brother and sister seemed to have something to tell me. I wonder if it's convenient now?"
This is a very direct question.
When Wei Xian heard it, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at her: Lu Jinxi's face was pale, and Furong's face did not show too many sharp edges and corners. But there is a strange confidence and certainty in it.
As if, when she asked, she was sure she would answer.
At the bottom of Wei Xian's heart, it was very subtle for a while.
She really wants to sell herself off, or get out of the way. But isn't she here today to talk about it, and to sell it to Lu Jinxi, so that she can easily turn around and take her into the ditch?
Even though I felt that the other party was deliberately asking such a direct question to create a block for myself, I felt a lot of reluctance in my heart, but I had to endure it.
Weixian sneered: "I still think you will never ask again, so it's not that stupid."
Under this corridor, the view is also wide.
At a glance, there are only the two of them, and they are also the closest maids, let alone a fifth pair of ears.
Weixian paused for a while.
She looked at Lu Jinxi abnormally and directly, with a bit of sarcasm in her eyes.
"Second sister-in-law, you must know that there is no airtight wall in the world."
"Since you sincerely want to ask, then your younger brother and sister must take the risk of offending you, and warn you: you were plotting something in the past, and the backyard caught fire."
"Even if you have something to do with your children, you have to beware of the villains."
At that moment, Lu Jinxi frowned.
She squinted slightly, raised her eyes to look at Wei Xian, only to meet Wei Xian's "you know I know" line of sight, and finally there was a little wave in her heart——
Sister Lang's problem was actually related to Song Zhiyan!
Lu Jinxi was a little surprised, but what came up was "expected". After all, the original body has not done anything excessive from beginning to end, so as not to make her daughter so alienated from her. Counting them back and forth, it was Song Zhiyan, which might cause misunderstandings among the children.
But...
How did this third sibling know about it?
Lu Jinxi had doubts in her heart.
Wei Xian is very proud and happy.
"How do I know, you don't have to worry about it, second sister-in-law."
"The most important thing right now is to solve this trouble. If things drag on for a long time and change, both your face and the general's face will be destroyed."
"Second sister-in-law, you are a kind person."
"But there is never a shortage of vicious and gossip widows in our house."
Speaking of the last sentence, there is already a bit of pungent sarcasm.
Lu Jinxi was in contact with the front and back, how could she still not understand, this was talking about their sister-in-law, He Shi, who did not leave the door.
The original body, Song Zhiyan, Sister Lang, and a He Shi.
This matter suddenly became interesting.
Lu Jinxi doesn't know the whole story for now, and of course he can't determine the truth of Wei Xian's words. But since she dared to say it, she must be somewhat sure.
After thinking silently for a long time, she sighed: "My younger brother and sister really care about me, but I still misunderstood me in the past."
“…”
Never seen such a brazen person! ! !
Weixian almost got goosebumps!
On purpose, definitely on purpose!
She's in a bad mood, but if she can't bear it, she can't make a big deal.
As long as she can successfully fool Lu Jinxi into remarrying, she will never have to be tortured by her again.
Weixian warned himself in his heart.
At the moment, she resisted the urge to strangle the second sister-in-law to death, raised her fan, covered half of her smiling face, and said, "It's all sisters-in-law, it should be We didn't have any grudges."
Oh.
Isn't there a grudge?
Lu Jinxi slightly hooked her lips, turned her eyes away, passed over the new buds on the flower trees under the porch, and said only: "It doesn't matter whether this is true or not, I will write down the kindness of my brother and sister."
Who cares that you remember this kindness, just get out of here sooner!
Weixian sneered in his heart, but said on his mouth: "It's all casual. Bystanders always know better than the authorities. I just assume that there is no such thing as today."
As she spoke, she followed Lu Jinxi's gaze, swept the scenery under the porch, as if remembering something, and opened her mouth unintentionally.
"The garden of the General's Mansion is the work of the craftsmen, no matter how you look at it, it looks the same."
"It's a small Zhongshan outside Nancheng City. The spring scenery is very good. The Sanxian Temple at the foot of the mountain has a good incense and is also a good place to put incense."
"Every year on February 2, the dignitaries in Beijing go out for an early spring."
"It's almost the end of the year."
Weixian glanced at Lu Jinxi.
"I received the invitation a while ago and was about to go out. The second sister-in-law has been bored in the house for a long time, so she should go out for a walk. How interesting is it to keep looking at the things in this garden?"
"It's better, then let's go on a trip together."
"I don't know what the second sister-in-law thinks?"
The second day of February is when the dragon raises its head, and outings are common.
Of course Lu Jinxi didn't mind going out, and even thought that Wei Xian was dozing off to give him a pillow. But this is the intention, but we have to think about it carefully.
At the moment, she didn't agree or refuse, she just said: "There are still ten days, and I don't know if I'm busy by then. If my brother and sister are not in a hurry, I'll answer you later. How about you?"
Weixian's eyes flashed, and Wei Wei felt a little disappointed.
But to kidnap this second sister-in-law, who stayed at home, she never thought of doing it overnight. Lu Jinxi didn't expressly refuse, so there was still drama.
So she also laughed: "Then I will send someone to ask the second sister-in-law."
While speaking, the two had reached a fork in the road.
One wants to go back to the east courtyard and the other wants to go to the west courtyard, so I will say goodbye here.
Lu Jinxi was accompanied by Qingque and left first.
Weixian took her maid to protect her, stood there and watched for a while, her thoughts floating in her heart.
Baozhu didn't understand what she was thinking: "You...you are so good, why did you invite the second grandmother to travel?"
Humph.
There is no chance at the birthday party.
But if it is a trip to the green, it is the year of the Spring Festival Meeting, and the Sanxian Temple is full of young talents, dignitaries, and dignitaries.
Weixian shook the fan gently, and a calculated smile appeared on his lips: "As long as she is willing to go out, I can let her out of the wall!"
Moreover, it is still a "wall" that can be married.
Only if she, Lu Jinxi, gets married successfully, will she not occupy the position of the Great General's wife, and she will not be placed with Xue Kuang when she dies.
In this way, it is a clean break.
Weixian looked at the long road that was empty in front of him from a distance, and didn't explain much to the bewildered Orb, so he closed his eyes, followed the road, and went back to the West Courtyard.
On the other side, Lu Jinxi and Qingque were speechless and returned to the East Courtyard.
The charcoal basin has been removed from the back room.
As soon as Lu Jinxi walked in, she asked the guarding maids to withdraw, sat on the heated kang, looked at Qingque and said, "Are you sure no one else knows about the affair with Mr. Song?"
When she was listening to Wei Xian under the porch, Qing Que had already set off a storm in her heart. It's just that she has a bit of determination after all, so she didn't show any flaws on the spot.
Now when Lu Jinxi asked, she was also confused.
At the moment, he knelt down and kowtowed, and said in a trembling voice, "The servants will handle this matter in person. They have never faked their hands, and have also checked the surrounding situation. The servants thought about it carefully, but I don't know where the omissions came from."
Unexpectedly.
Lu Jinxi pinched his brows and said, "There must be some mistakes, but they may not be found after the fact. You get up first, I don't mean to punish you, so don't kneel and turn your head carefully. knee."
Qing Que was a little stunned, and her eyes were a little sour.
When she obeyed her words, she was really helpless: "It's because the slaves didn't get things done, and the third grandma knew that she has always been at odds with you. If, if—"
"Not so many ifs."
Lu Jinxi interrupted her lightly, but was not worried at all.
It's not unusual for a widow to meet someone's eye.
The fault of this matter is that Song Zhiyan is a married man. If it were publicized, it would be a scandalous affair.
Wei Xian said these words today, not to test her true or false.
After all, people in the world love to have fun.
As long as she opens her mouth, everyone will believe her. Even if she doesn't lose her reputation, Lu Jinxi will not be much better.
So...
"She knew about this matter, but she didn't say it out, but she didn't have any ill will towards me for the time being, and she didn't need to worry about her." Lu Jinxi pondered for a moment, then said, "The key is still Sister Lang."
Xue Minglang should have learned about this at some point.
That's why I alienated her.
Qing Que also thought of this layer, and wanted to speak.
But at this time, footsteps suddenly came from outside, as if someone was coming, and whispered to the maid who was guarding outside.
Lu Jinxi waved his hand and motioned Qingque to stay silent, but asked, "What's going on outside?"
"Second grandmother, there are people from the front yard. The nine-door admiral, Lord Liu and Lord Jinwu Weifang, came to visit, saying that they had received the letter from Princess Yongning and brought gifts to thank you."
Outside, a maid returned crisply.
When Lu Jinxi heard this, she was a little surprised: "Master Jinwu Weifang?"
The nine-door admiral has nothing to say, it must be Liu Jin.
But "Master Jinwu Weifang", she doesn't know.
Yin asked, "Which one is Mr. Fang?"
From the outside, he replied: "Second grandmother Hui is the original Yun Hao envoy Fang Shaoxing, Lord Fang. A few days ago, he was dismissed due to his impeachment. Today, he was revived by the emperor after noon, and he was transferred to Jinwuwei, who was responsible for guarding the palace gate. ."
"Guarding the palace gate?"
Lu Jinxi's face became weird for a while, and he almost laughed.
From cleaning up the car for the emperor, to guarding the gate of the palace.
It's really unfortunate that this side does not do much.
But listening to this situation, needless to say, the matter of the DPRK has been settled.
Liu Jin is still the Admiral of the Nine Sects; although Fang Shaoxing has changed from a fourth-rank cloud envoy to an unqualified Jin Wuwei, he is no different than Liu Jin, who has a murder case that is not known whether it is true or not, and can be removed from his post. When you get out, it proves that it's okay.
How long has it been since she sent someone to inquire in the morning?
The eldest princess Yongning is really resolute. Moreover, she even told Liu Jin about it and motioned Liu Jin to thank her...
This kind of love, can be a big deal.
My eyes flickered, she thought for a moment, and then said: "From the beginning to the end, I just moved my lips, I really can't be thankful to them. You only went back to Master Liu, and you said the general's old love. If you can help me, I can help him. I can’t say that the General’s mansion still has something to bother him, but please don’t worry about it. There is still a wife at home. If he insists on thanking him, please go to pay her respects.”
After all, Xue Kuang's mother is still alive.
Although she is in charge, if there are serious foreign guests, it is better for the Sun family to come forward.
When the outsiders heard it, they responded and went out to hand the message to the front yard.
In the front hall of the General's Mansion, two people have been sitting for a while.
Liu Jin is tall and burly, sitting upright, with the spirit of a tiger going down the mountain.
Fang Shaoxing next to him, although he has a silver crown with hair and a white robe, but he didn't bring a sword today, he was leaning on the chair, but he was lazy and out of shape.
His face was originally handsome, but an old scar on the corner of his left eye ruined the pleasing look of the entire face.
The corners of the eyes and the brows, and the demeanor, are full of madness and evil.
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Fang Shaoxing turned to look at the simple furnishings in the living room, but in the blink of an eye, his eyes fell on the pretty girl who was standing beside him.
"Cough!"
Liu Jin saw it, and immediately coughed twice to remind him.
Fang Shaoxing turned around and said, "Master Liu, does your throat feel uncomfortable?"
Liu Jin glanced around quickly and saw that the maid didn't notice, so he leaned over and lowered his voice: "This is in the General's Mansion!"
General's Mansion?
So what?
Xue Kuang is dead anyway.
Fang Shaoxing didn't really care.
If it wasn't for Liu Jin saying he wanted to come to thank the great general's wife, and he just had some thoughts, he wouldn't be too lazy to leave today.
But he didn't say those words.
After all, Liu Jin is different from him. He has been with Xue Kuang for a long time and respects the general's mansion.
So Fang Shaoxing just responded twice: "I know, I know. Isn't there anyone here yet?"
It just so happened that just after he finished speaking, the person who was ordered to speak back and forth arrived.
Liu Jin hurriedly stood up: "What did Madam say?"
The servant just relayed the words from the East Courtyard and said, "Second grandmother said that she didn't have any strength in this matter. The general has an old relationship with you, and now it is possible to If you can’t help you, you can help. If you don’t have enough, there are other things in the house that will bother you, so please don’t worry about it. There are still elders in the family, if you insist on thanking you, please go to see your wife.”
The "second grandmother" in the servant's mouth refers to Lu Jinxi, and the "madam" refers to the Sun family.
This time it makes sense.
Liu Jin nodded. The five-year-old and three-thick man seemed very restrained in the living room of the General's Mansion. He only said, "If that's the case, please pass it on. I'll go here with Mr. Fang—"
Halfway through speaking, Liu Jin originally wanted to take Fang Shaoxing to Xie Sun's family together.
Unexpectedly, when he spoke, Fang Shaoxing sneered, turned around and walked out of the hall.
Liu Jin was surprised for a while: "Hey, General Fang!"
Fang Shao was too lazy to go back and said, "Thank you, an old lady, I have no interest. Mr. Liu, you can thank Fang on your behalf."
As he spoke, he went down the stairs.
Liu Jin couldn't stop him, he was dumbfounded when he heard this, and almost broke out in sweat.
The servant's eyes were also very surprised.
But at this time, Fang Shao pedestrian had already gone far and went out the door.
From the generals around Xue Kuang to the generals at Hanshan Pass, from Yunhui envoy to Jinwuwei, this is all the way to relegation.
He's in a really bad mood.
I heard Liu Jin say that today's affairs depended on Lu Jinxi, so I followed him for the first time. Unexpectedly, this woman still put on airs and disappeared!
Fang Shaoxing is of course full of disappointment.
The side door of the General's Mansion opened to the south. He came out, thinking that Mianhuasuliu didn't pick a good one last night, so he was going to find a place to drink.
Unexpectedly, the sound of horse hooves came from the road ahead.
Five horses approached, passed directly by Fang Shaoxing, and stopped in front of the mansion gate. Immediately came down five men dressed in navy blue and dressed as servants.
Four of them are holding brocade boxes.
The first person only held a gilded gift slip and hung a sign of Taishifu on his waist. He led the person up the steps. He looked polite and smiling, and bowed his hands to the servant in front of the general's residence.
"Be courteous."
"I'm here from the Grand Master's Mansion. On the birthday banquet, the general's wife of Domeng Gui's Mansion chose the medicine to return to Shengtang as a gift. The eldest son of my mansion heard about it, and the special person prepared a return gift to thank the General's Mansion."
"I also ask you to pass the information on your behalf."
