Chapter 48: Rotten Peach Blossom
Chunyu felt very proud when she said this:
"My lord, my slaves all suspected that those people had been taught in advance. Oh no, it was Mu Yun who told the slaves that he suspected that some of them had problems, so he stayed there. It was really lucky that he was there at that time! "
"My servant was standing outside and heard it very clearly. In fact, when Mu Yun stopped the group of people at the beginning, the Zhou family members still complained a little. They felt that his words were too strong and would not make the other party anxious. What should I say? He is not afraid of wearing shoes when he is barefoot, and he also said that Mr. Zhou had told him before leaving that he must let the other party collect the Zhou family's things, and he felt that Mu Yun was taking advantage of the power of our palace and overstepping his authority."
"But this servant knows that Mu Yun has always been stable with the prince, and will not say unnecessary words, let alone act arbitrarily. Sure enough, after being fooled by him, and seeing the Zhou family taking things and leaving, the deceased His father quietly came forward and dragged him over to apologize, saying that there was nothing their family could do about it, and that he knew he was sorry for the Zhou family and didn't think about what to do, but someone came to the door this morning."
Appearing so soon? After hearing this, Zhou Heng couldn't help but look at Shen Fu again. Shen Fu couldn't avoid it, so he had to point his hand slightly at Chun Yu, who was engrossed in what he was talking about, and motioned her to continue listening. Seeing Zhou Heng Smiling, winking and nodding, he couldn't help but smile slightly, he seemed to be informal.
Chun Yu, who was standing in front of him, saw his prince smiling, and thought he was praising them for their ability to do things, and was very happy in his heart. However, he also knew that it was not his own fault, so he tried to take credit for Mu Yun, who was reliable in doing things. :
"The old man said that the person who came was a young man in his twenties. His appearance and voice were ordinary and hard to remember. However, Mu Yun later told the slave that he tried to interrogate some details, and there were still some I have gained a lot, so I continue to stay there to see if the young man the old man mentioned will still be around or come to check on the situation."
"According to the old man, the person who came here was very familiar with the salvage situation at Liuhu Lake. He said that the Zhou family had fished out the body, but when they fished it out, they found that his son was with Miss Zhou. Many people saw it at that time. The Zhou family was very angry and wanted to take this opportunity to file a lawsuit with the Yamen, saying that Miss Zhou was murdered by his son for making money. Although she was dead, who was the Zhou family, and Miss Zhou was engaged to Prince Jing? , even the emperor knows about this, and their whole family will be buried with Miss Zhou when the time comes."
"The old man said that they were naturally frightened to death. They had lost the mainstay of their family, and they thought the sky was going to fall. If they were sued again by the Zhou family, wouldn't it mean that they would lose their entire family and not be able to pay for the crime? The whole family burst into tears and didn't know what to do. It’s good.”
"The person who came to report the news let out a long sigh, saying that he had pity on the old and the young in their family, and would give them a clear path. When the Zhou family came, and so on, all he had to do was to tell Miss Zhou's fault first, and then the Zhou family would Taking into account the reputation of the young lady, I might not pursue the case any further."
At this point, while You Zi felt that the scene was very irritating, Chunyu also felt that Mu Yun was really capable. You know, the person leading the team of the Zhou family at that time was the housekeeper of the Zhou family, but he was still helpless in the face of those crazy shrews. , if they were all as incompetent as them, my cousin's reputation would be completely ruined!
Mu Yun has really gained face for Prince Jing's Mansion. As a result, the cousin is now relying on the Prince's protection. The Zhou family owes the prince a favor. It can no longer be like before. It always seems that they have to worry about the marriage between the two families. As if aggrieved.
Thinking of this, Chunyu couldn't help but add her own thoughts: "This is the situation, Your Majesty, thanks to Mu Yun's presence, the truth of the matter was found out, and the boatman's family naturally ceased operations. The people of the Zhou family suddenly realized, then The housekeeper held Mu Yun's hand gratefully and wouldn't let go."
When Shen Fu heard this, he wanted to tell the maid in front of him that in fact, he had told Mu Yun about these possible situations in advance, so that he could adapt accordingly, otherwise the boy would not dare to make the decision not to come back without permission. However, look Chun Yu's admiration looked like, forget it, Mu Yun is indeed capable, let him receive such praise, I hope he will gain a lot in the future.
But what happened to Miss Zhou? Why is she blinking at herself now, and then licking her lips at Chun Yu, who has his back turned to her?
What else are you trying to signal to yourself?
Also, she probably couldn't bear to listen to Chun Yu's words of praise to Mu Yun.
This maid usually looks very steady, but what happened today? What kind of person has Mu Yun become according to her? She can pinch and speak eloquently. Could it be that she has just passed the age limit? The older Chen Feng promoted Mu Yun to captain of the bodyguard?
Didn't she talk to Chenfeng more on weekdays? Chenfeng just talked a little more, and sometimes he was confused. He and Muyun grew up together, and they both had their own strengths. Even in the past two years, he started to worry about them. Aunt Shen, who is about to get married, still thinks that Chenfeng is easier to talk to about his wife.
While Chunyu was talking eloquently, she suddenly realized that her prince glanced at her, and then glanced at her cousin behind her several times, and suddenly reacted:
Oops! I was just talking about how Mu Yun restrained the shameless boatman family, and actually forgot that my cousin was still here! Although I didn’t say much about how those people insulted her just now, my cousin Lan Xinhui definitely took it to heart. Already.
Chunyu felt that she understood the expression in her prince's eyes, and secretly regretted it in her heart. She quickly skipped some words and skipped to the end, talking about how Mu Yun controlled those shameless people:
"So that's it. Anyway, there will be no more trouble in the boatman's family for the time being. The gifts and money sent by the Zhou family have also been accepted. Mu Yun asked the slave to come back and report to the prince first, and he will try to find out the boatman who went there in the morning. Who is the person who reported the news at home?"
After saying this, Chun Yu planned to bow and leave, but unexpectedly, the cousin who was sitting behind called out: "Hey, Chun Yu, when will Mu Yun come back?"
It seems that this Mu Yun is very capable, Zhou Heng thought about it just now, but after all, she is not the original person, and she doesn’t have many contacts with people in the palace. After thinking about it, she feels that she should be the one she met in the bamboo forest before. Although the handsome guy wearing a smart outfit and holding a sword was a little inferior to the prince in front of him, Zhou Heng thought it was quite handsome probably because of the way he was dressed at the time.
Unexpectedly, he is still a versatile man in both civil and military affairs. He is capable of holding a sword to protect people, and he is capable of fighting with the crowd. It's okay. Zhou Heng thinks that he can get more familiar with such a person next time. Shen Fu will not arrange risky tasks for himself next time. Really, and the person behind the scenes seems to be extremely cruel, so it would be better to make friends with a few people who are smart, reliable, quick to react and have force value as soon as possible.
Chunyu didn't expect that Miss Biao would ask this question. It seemed that she was concerned about what she just said. She glanced at her prince who was still sitting behind the desk and didn't know what he was thinking, and boldly comforted this person. Cousin who I got to know quite well over the past two days:
"Ms. Cousin, please don't take it to heart. Those dishonest people will sell their own father and son for a few taels of silver. We can't be like them, otherwise we will only be angry. I'm holding my body, I heard you say you have a headache this morning—"
"Your head still hurts?" His prince finally spoke and asked with a frown, "Can you drink the soup on time?"
"Drink," Zhou Heng nodded. For some reason, the topic suddenly turned to himself: "Maybe it was because I just woke up, but I got better later. It's okay, don't worry."
"That's good." Shen Fu nodded and said nothing more.
However, Chunyu, who was standing between the two of them, didn’t think so. According to what she later told Xiao Chuntao: “Oh, they both pretended to be serious on purpose, which made me laugh to death. One was obviously concerned, and the other was One is very grateful for this concern!”
Zhou Heng/Shen Fu: This forced brainstorming is not enough (wrong)!
"Then what happened next?" Chuntao's eyes lit up when she heard this. It's a pity that she is a little maid. It's already quite good for her to follow her cousin out. But she never thought that she would be able to follow her in the study and listen to things. Those who have a chance to take their turn will be satisfied now that they can hear the gossip about the prince and his cousin from Sister Chunyu.
Unfortunately, Sister Chunyu spread her hands and said, "I came out later. Your Majesty still has something to say to Miss Cousin. Uh, I mean business, really."
Okay, then let’s listen to Sister Chunyu talk about fun things from now on. Chuntao didn’t think about it, but she didn’t know that in the study at that time, after Chunyu left, the cousin in the room was actually thinking about messy things.
Because of what Chunyu said just now, Zhou Heng felt that he was becoming more and more curious about Shen Fu's rotten peach blossom:
Being able to send people to the boatman's house in advance to make arrangements is much more terrifying than the illegitimate meal. If the original person were here, a good and lively girl would be forced to death, and even the innocence behind her death would be almost destroyed. , what a hatred and resentment this must be!
At the same time, Zhou Heng felt a little regretful in his heart: Such a perverted girl has power in her hands, while he, an ignorant person from the 21st century, has no power and no identity, not to mention whether he can give the other party to her. Knock it down smoothly, don't let the opponent take care of you accidentally.
Although he wouldn't be able to see the horse-headed jade sculpture if he didn't agree to the conditions surnamed Shen in front of him, but faced with such a very risky task, could he also take the opportunity to make some requests, for example, let Mu Yun protect him in the future? Myself? It’s all for the successful completion of the mission.
Thinking of this, Zhou Heng couldn't help but look up and look at Shen Fu who had his eyes closed and didn't know what he was thinking. Well, every time he looked at it, he felt that Prince Jing was really good-looking and tall, and he felt like he belonged to the girls of the 21st century. The nymphomaniac's "dress to look thin and take off the clothes to show off" type. After all, the spring shirt is thin now, but it can still be seen. Moreover, I had grabbed his arm by Liuhu Lake before, and it was still quite strong.
And the fingers that are tapping the table now have clear joints and slender fingers. Oh, to be honest, I can't stand men with good-looking hands. The man who broke up with me in a voice message for no reason in the past is average-looking. , but the hands are really pretty, no wonder the two of them called it a breakup when they separated.
Thinking about this, Zhou Heng discovered with some regret that the previous incident was only ten and a half days away, so why did it feel like it was already so far away? In addition, even the man's appearance made him feel... I can't remember some of them.
It seemed that he didn't like it after all. It was just a rotten peach blossom at best. Zhou Heng shook his head mockingly and sighed lightly.
"What's wrong?" Shen Fu on the opposite side suddenly opened his eyes and asked.
"Uh, um," Zhou Heng didn't expect that the other party would suddenly open his eyes. He was a little embarrassed for a moment, and before he had time to react, he blurted out: "I'm thinking about the peach blossoms."
