491: plan before moving
491: Plan and then move. The distant sky bloomed with wisps of light. The early morning light reflected the earth with a hint of coldness. Outside the blue-grey wall stood a young man wearing blue clothes. I saw that he was thief-minded.
He looked back and forth. After confirming that no one was there, he stepped forward, touched the copper door knocker, and knocked on the two small black doors.
Soon the small door was opened, and a stout old lady poked her head out. She also looked around, and after making sure that no one was there, she let the boy in quickly.
This small courtyard is not spacious, with only two entrances from the front and back. Although it is not spacious, it is very delicately maintained. The path paved with colorful cobblestones is very clean with water sprinkled on it. The paths are filled with flowers of various colors, and you can walk through them layer by layer.
The flowers arrived in front of the main house.
In front of the main room stood a girl who was about twenty-eight years old, wearing a ginger-yellow plum blossom jacket, a crescent-white piping jacket, and a floor-length skirt swaying. This girl had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and snow-white skin.
When the young man came in, he stepped forward to greet him and asked in a low voice: "Tateshan, can you see the young master?"
"Replying to Sister Qingbei, I have met the young master. Is the girl awake?" Tateyama asked in a low voice, with a look of peace on his face.
"We've been waiting for a long time. Come in quickly." Qingbei said urgently, and opened the green curtain to let Lishan go in. Then she followed in. The woman who led the way had already returned.
The guard at the door has gone, and the yard is clean again.
There was a faint fragrance floating in the room. Tateyama lowered his head without raising his head. He looked at a figure sitting behind the screen and bowed, "I have met my aunt Ruyi, my dear. I am well."
"Get up, you don't have to be so restrained." A charming voice came slowly. Sitting behind the screen was Ruyi, one of Qi Heng's favorite aunts. Her voice was just like the person she was, and she was indeed quite pretty.
, there is a slight smile between the eyebrows and eyes even without speaking, which makes people feel comfortable at first sight.
"Thank you, Auntie." Lishan straightened up, and then said: "The young master asked me to pass a message to my aunt. It is important that Mrs. Qi's miscarriage cannot be noticed by others. Even if there are any clues that are missed, we must try our best.
Erase it. We can’t make Qi Heng suspicious, let alone make the Qi family doubt the Prince Le’s Mansion.”
"Just tell the young master and ask him to rest assured." Ruyi's charming voice came again. Although there was a smile on his face, there was no warmth in his eyes.
Tateyama nodded with satisfaction when he heard Ruyi speak like this. At this moment, he didn't look like an ordinary boy.
"Young Master also said that Aunt Ruyi should conceive an heir as soon as possible, and she must get there before Mrs. Qi." Lishan paused after saying this, and then said: "Young Master also said that if Aunt Ruyi cannot give birth, a new person will come in.
.”
Ruyi's face changed. The arrival of a new person meant that the old person of hers should disappear. In an instant, the blood faded, and her fingers clenched and trembled slightly. She knew King Le's methods, and she knew the prince's methods better.
Suppressing the fear in his heart, he said in a deep voice: "I know, I will work hard."
"That's good. Does my aunt have any news for me to convey?" Tateyama lowered his head and asked again.
Ruyi thought for a while, then frowned and said, "Qi Yushi has been hanging around a lot with Yao Shangshu recently, and Qi Heng has also interacted more and more with the eldest young master of the Yao family. I know that's all."
"Yao family?" Tateyama frowned and repeated softly, "Since we have nothing to do, we just left. When the sun comes up later, there will be so many people that we will miss our traces."
Ruyi looked at Qingbei and said, "Send Lishan out."
Qingbei hurriedly responded and sent Tateyama out. Ruyi looked at the two Ruyi-patterned screens in front of him in a daze, his expression extremely ugly.
Qingbei came back quickly, moved the screen aside, looked at Ruyi's expression and said cautiously: "Auntie, it's not an option to keep going like this. Aunt Jixiang competes with you everywhere, and the young master rested at his place last night
, if you let her get pregnant first, you will have done a great service in front of the prince, but then you will be overpowered by her again, who knows how arrogant you will be."
"Of course I know what you are saying. One day I will step on that flirtatious fox Jixiang." Ruyi looked ferocious. Although she and Jixiang both came from Prince Le's Mansion, they had always been at odds with each other and started fighting.
The past few years have been about the same, with signs of difference everywhere.
"I think it is better to find someone to support you than to fight alone like this." Qingbei lowered her voice and gave Ruyi advice.
"Backer? Apart from the useless eldest lady, the backer in the backyard is Mrs. Qi. But Mrs. Qi naturally prefers the red and green flowers she sent in. How come her elbows are turned outward?" Ruyi snorted coldly, she naturally
I am willing to find a backer, but where can I find one?
"Auntie, after the madam is gone, won't there be a young madam? Although the young madam doesn't have much power now, there is a saying about the hatred of killing a son or the hatred of taking away a wife. If the eldest young madam knows why she doesn't have a child, what do you say?
Can she still hold on?" Qingbei asked again.
Ruyi frowned again, "No one has anything to do with this matter. Even if I tell her, will she believe it? Don't forget that Luo Jue didn't like me in the past and suppressed me a lot. Otherwise, how could she be tolerated?
If you get lucky, you will be rampant."
"What are you afraid of, Auntie? You didn't do it yourself, you just couldn't stop it because you were powerless. What's more, we are not trying to tear down Auntie Jixiang, but to divert the trouble to Juanhong and Luluo. Then we'll have to wait for it.
If the madam and the madam start to quarrel, the young master will naturally be too annoyed to come here to hide for peace and quiet. This time the young madam has a miscarriage, and the madam has stopped your pregnancy, so there is no chance of getting pregnant. "
Ruyi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and his heart became excited, "Just think about it, if you make one mistake and lose everything, I have to be steady."
Qingbei said no more words and bowed down, then walked out of the door. Then she felt cold sweat on her back and her steps were a little frivolous. She casually waved over the two little girls and said: "You guys stay here, if there is anything for my aunt,
Just go in and serve as soon as you are told."
"Yes, Sister Qingbei." The little girl didn't dare to protest and hurriedly responded, guarding the door politely.
Qingbei then walked out. After leaving the small courtyard, she turned east, passed through the small garden, and then passed the corridor before turning into a large courtyard. It was already three o'clock in the morning, and the sun was shining brightly.
The earth gradually warmed up.
"Hey, it's Miss Qingbei who's here. What gust of wind brought you here?" The woman who was guarding the gate came up to her with a smile. She bent down and said with a flattering smile, her face full of fawning.
This woman is the gatekeeper of the main courtyard, but she wants to fawn over a girl next to her aunt. This is really a strange thing in Kyoto. But in Qi Mansion, no one pays attention to her, as if this is the way it should be.
Zi Jin looked at the courtyard door through the gauze of the window. After seeing this scene, he turned to look at Luo Jue and said, "Being here with you today is really an eye-opener. After all, you are also the head wife.
You girl, you actually fawn over someone close to your aunt, you are really capable."
Luo Jue had already given birth to a baby at this time, but her face was sallow and very thin, as if she were made of paper. Hearing Zi Jin's words, he didn't even frown, but said lightly: "You are here to see the joke."
Enough?"
Zi Jin raised his eyebrows, sat next to Luo Jue who was half lying down, looked up at her, and said: "I said you are going to continue like this? As long as you say you don't want to avenge your child, I will leave immediately. You should
Why am I willing to wade into the muddy waters of your home? I know that you are disheartened and are about to wither like this, but your child who never saw the light of day died inexplicably and you don’t want to avenge him?
This is really not like you."
Luo Jue lowered her head and said nothing. Just when Zi Jin thought she couldn't speak, she heard her say: "I don't care about my mother's family now, my mother-in-law is overbearing, my husband is unreliable, and all four aunts are shrewd. I can do it alone."
Even if four pairs of hands can't stop it, what else can we do?"
"You are said to be stupid but you are very smart, but now you are so smart that you are confused. Who asked you to fight against four hands with two fists, don't you know how to combine vertically and horizontally?" Zi Jin rolled his eyes, no wonder some people say that women should be smart.
He will always be confused when he should be confused, he will always pretend to be smart when he should be confused, and he will always miss the point in doing things. It would be fine if this was said to others, but it happened to be Luo Jue. Zi Jin felt that it was particularly strange. Luo Jue
This person has always been very wise, otherwise he would not have pushed Zi Jin to a desperate situation in his previous life. However, in this life, Luo Jue lacked the sharp and aggressive style of his previous life, and instead was hampered in everything and fell into a quagmire.
"A combination of vertical and horizontal?" Luo Jue frowned and looked at Zi Jin as if he didn't understand.
Zi Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at Qingbei, who was happily chatting with the girl in Luo Jue's yard in the yard. Luo Jue followed Zi Jin's eyes and looked over, his eyes narrowed when he saw Qingbei's figure, and then he said:
"she?"
"It's the master behind her." Zi Jin said leisurely, "When I came to your house this morning, I saw a boy running all the way in from the corner door of the backyard. Looking at him, he looked familiar with the road, he should be
I am very familiar with the people in Qi Mansion's courtyard. I was a little curious at the time, so I asked your servant, and then I found out that the boy was the steward of Aunt Ruyi's shop outside your courtyard."
Luo Jue listened to Zi Jin's words and suddenly realized: "I know who you are talking about. The boy's name is Lishan. He came here with Ruyi. I can't pay too much attention to him. After all, he is not from Qi Mansion."
Zi Jin smiled coldly, "That's it, that's all. But when I came from the Hou's Mansion, I happened to see him coming out of Lewang's Mansion. Just then, he came straight here after he came out of Lewang's Mansion early in the morning because of something.
This is not the time to do business."
Luo Jue was stunned for a moment, and his expression became a little solemn, "Prince Le's Mansion? Did you see it for real?"
