Chapter Fifty-Four: Tang Tong Solves Puzzles
After Tang Tong left, Lan Tingmei lost her mood. After chatting with Xia Xunqiu for a while, she stood up and said goodbye. Xia Xunqiu insisted on sending her out of the house, but Lan Tingmei couldn't resist, so she walked forward while talking.
Not far after leaving the inner courtyard, I saw Tang Tong coming up to him and saluting Xia Xunqiu, "Hello, Miss Xia! I'll be the one to escort you. You'll be fine."
Xia Xunqiu took a serious look at Tang Tong at this time. He had a rosy face, and although he was not handsome, he was still majestic. He had a typical martial temperament. At first glance, it was clear that he was not a man who was good at calculations and good at attacking people's hearts.
Xia Xunqiu and Lan Tingmei didn't speak, but Jian Chun said, "It doesn't matter what your identity is, you talk to the lady like this!".
Unexpectedly, Tang Tong didn't care and said with a smile: "I just saw that Miss Xia was worried, so I just wanted to clear up her confusion."
These words made Lan Tingmei a little angry. She obviously wanted to talk to Xia Xunqiu, but she didn't hesitate to shamelessly get close to her. She stepped forward and pushed Tang Tong, "Get out of here! If you had a good idea, didn't you tell me earlier?
?”.
Tang Tong stood still and was still very kind to Lan Tingmei, "Second Miss Lan didn't ask me how to speak." The smile still hung on his face and he moved closer to Lan Tingmei.
Lan Tingmei was notorious for being domineering, so she hit Tang Tong casually, but Tang Tong dodged it this time, but she still said, "Now that I'm asking you, why don't you tell me quickly!".
"This is where you and Miss Xia can't compare. You can't be more kind when asking for help."
Due to Lan Tingmei's character, she then took the whip from her left hand and raised it. Just as she was about to swing the whip, Tang Tong quickly grabbed her wrist, "Miss Xia is here, so you can't be polite! Besides, it's useless to me."
Lan Tingmei wanted to resist but was unable to do anything to Tang Tong, so she was forced to hold on tightly with her right hand. Xia Xunqiu and Jianchun had long noticed that Lan Tingmei was not as domineering and angry as before, and had an indescribable feeling towards Tang Tong.
Lan Tingmei lost face and still ordered: "Let me go! Otherwise I'll be rude to you."
Tang Tong finally gave in, relaxed a little, and said forcefully: "As long as you don't use force anymore, I will let you go!" How could Lan Tingmei lower her head lightly, open her left hand and swing at Tang Tong?
, and was forced to capture Tang Tong.
I have never been restrained twice in front of everyone. I am so ugly that I have lost my home. In anger, he raised his right foot and kicked it towards Tang Tong. If God helped, Tang Tong turned forward, went around behind her, and strangled Lan Tingmei's neck.
, was completely restrained now. If Tang Tong hadn't held her up, Lan Tingmei would have fallen to the ground.
Xia Xunqiu and Jianchun, who were watching the commotion on the sidelines, had never imagined that it would end like this. It was really a bit of tofu, and Tang Tong was Lan Tingmei's nemesis. Xia Xunqiu, who saw everything, hurriedly persuaded
He said: "Master Tang, let go of Miss Lan, there are many people watching." On the side were people from the Xia Mansion, all looking at this as if they were watching a play, which made Lan Tingmei even more embarrassed.
Xia Xunqiu, who had always been quiet and elegant, was soft-spoken, full of femininity, and had an irresistible charm. Tang Tong could not escape the worldly world, and couldn't help but put Lan Tingmei down and quickly hid in Xia Xunqiu.
Behind her, Lan Tingmei, who still had the whip in her hand, could only look at the ocean and sigh, it was useless to have an attack.
Jian Chun, who was aside, was thinking in his mind that Tang Tong was not only brave as an ordinary man, he was also good at sizing up situations and looking for the right opportunity. Lan Tingmei, who calmed down after a while, almost roared: "Don't you have a good idea? Tell me quickly.
ah!".
They have become confrontational, and their words are not so kind. Tang Tong is not surprised. His voice is also louder: "Is this the place to talk? I want everyone to know." Lan Tingmei was so angry that she stamped her feet and stared at the side.
.
Xia Xunqiu saw this and stepped forward to comfort him: "Don't be angry! Let's find a place to talk properly." He half-coaxed and half-pushed him and left with Lan Tingmei. Jianchun glanced at Tang Tong a few times, wanting to
He hesitated but still followed, and Tang Tong walked slowly at the back as if nothing was wrong.
The two came to the garden and walked to a small pavilion by the water. Xia Xunqiu asked Lan Tingmei to sit down first and sat next to him. When Tang Tong and Jian Chun arrived, Xia Xunqiu pointed to a wooden bench opposite and said: "
Mr. Tang, please sit down!".
Tang Tong clasped his hands and said, "I am a martial artist and I am good at standing." Xia Xunqiu smiled and stopped forcing him.
Xia Xunqiu's eyes were shining with desire, but he still didn't seem to be in a hurry, "Is Mr. Tang just here to give advice? I don't think so!" Xia Xunqiu is thoughtful and meticulous in looking at people.
Tang Tong nodded and didn't hide anything, "I just came to see the prosperity of Xia Mansion and Miss Xia's style. Seeing Miss Xia so unhappy, I couldn't help feeling sorry for her and wanted to help."
Lan Tingmei sneered and mocked, "Shameless! It turned out that you had evil intentions and blamed me for being blind."
Tang Tong didn't care and said as usual: "I'm not a good person, but I'm not a vicious person either. I'm just telling the truth. Please don't take offense to Miss Xia."
Xia Xunqiu just smiled faintly and didn't care about Tang Tong's words. He said softly: "Master Tang, please give me some advice. I'm very grateful!".
Lan Tingmei was dismissive and threatened with serious words: "If you are talking nonsense, let Butler Zhen bring someone to deal with you."
Tang Tong was a little impatient after hearing this, and shook his head helplessly and said: "Can you please speak well? You are not as good as a warrior like me." Lan Tingmei looked at each other angrily, but there was nothing he could do.
Tang Tong turned to Xia Xunqiu and said: "You can't just look at your own side. If you want to win by surprise, you must know the opponent's weaknesses."
Lan Tingmei knew that Tang Tong didn't have any real materials, and he didn't have any good intentions. He just said casually, "It's easy to say! Come up with some real materials."
Tang Tong was unmoved and reminded openly, "I hope you can keep it a secret and don't spread it. After all, I am a junior official and I am afraid of retaliation. Can I agree?" The three of them looked at each other in confusion.
Xia Xunqiu was still considerate and agreed even more thoughtfully, "Jian Chun and I swear not to talk nonsense, and Sister Smurf will also keep her mouth shut." While speaking, she looked at Lan Tingmei, who was stubborn, and nodded in agreement even though she was reluctant.
But Tang Tong looked at her worriedly, and Lan Tingmei was really impatient and said angrily: "I promise! That's it." She glared at Tang Tong and ignored him.
Tang Tong felt relieved now, and said with some airs: "Actually, Princess Yu has a shady affair, but no one knows about it." As soon as these words came out, it was clearly a man's words, and it was clear that others were talking about right and wrong.
Poisonous woman.
Lan Tingmei couldn't help it, and did not forget to sarcastically say, "I didn't expect that the dignified General Qian is a gossip, I understand!", her attitude was very bad, and she didn't even look at him.
Tang Tong did not show weakness and sarcastically said, "Then Second Miss Lan and Prince Yu's Mansion are head-to-head, are they experts?" Lan Tingmei was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to reply.
Tang Tong saw the opportunity and said mercilessly: "Forget me for talking too much, I'll ask you to be wise!", and then he raised his legs and left. Lan Tingmei was originally teasing Tang Tong, but she didn't expect it to be like this, and she got a little anxious and angry.
He shouted sternly: "Stop! You are not allowed to leave until you tell me the reason!" This was a domineering act. How could Tang Tong accept this? He still walked forward regardless.
At this time, Jian Chun ran forward and said in a pleading tone, "Master Tang is too narrow-minded to leave like this. Besides, I have already agreed. Please save our lady!" Jian Chun's words touched Tang Tong's pain point.
, couldn't help but stopped.
Looking back at Jian Chun, this woman knows how to be a good person, touch people's hearts, and leave you with feelings. This is not something ordinary people can do, so I can't help but admire her with admiration.
Tang Tong started walking back, and when he approached Jian Chun, he apologized humbly, "I took the liberty!" He shook his head and was not very satisfied with himself. He returned to where he was and bowed his head to Lan Tingmei and said, "Isn't that right?
Stop! I am short-tempered."
Lan Tingmei was surprised, and felt guilty in her heart. Her voice was much lower, "Stop pretending, let's talk about business." When she calmed down, she was like a lady, which was very different from before.
Tang Huan returned to the topic and said leisurely: "Prince Yu's Mansion has a distant relative named Ni who lives in the Prince's Mansion. He has a deep relationship with the princess as a childhood sweetheart. When we were young, we were in love with each other, but something happened between them. As time went by, Prince Yu knew about it.
, and drove the person named Ni out. For a period of time, the princess did not change her obsession, but when she met the young marquis some time ago, she became obsessed with her. She talked about her concerns with Prince Yu, and Prince Yu naturally spared no effort.", Prince Yu's Mansion These
How did Tang Tong know about the hidden secret of love? The three of them looked at a loss.
Lan Tingmei disagreed, "What's the use of this? There's no way to know if a person is driven away. Even if he is found, he will definitely be sealed. What can I do?"
Tang Tong's attitude was firm and he said with a wicked smile: "You can't do it. The Marquis and Lord Shangshu can't do anything, but what about me?" His expression was completely cunning and sophisticated, not that of a warrior. The most surprised person was Xia Xun.
Qiu, this person has unique skills and tactics, and Lan Tingmei is no match for him. I can't help but worry about Lan Tingmei in my heart. If I follow him, my shirt will be wet with tears, and I won't have a stable life. I still don't get close to this person.
Good.
So he said sincerely, "I hope Master Tang will not hesitate to give me some advice," and then bowed deeply.
Tang Tong was a little confused. He was always a soft-spoken person, so his heart softened and he said affectionately, "Although the princess has given up, the person surnamed Ni has come to the capital. Now there is something to be done."
La!", he said with a weird smile on his face.
Lan Tingmei believed that he had such magical powers. He must have been making things up randomly. He sneered and said sarcastically: "How long have you been in the capital? Even if you know that the princess has an affair, do you even want to let you see her when she comes to the capital?"
The whole place smells bad.
Tang Tong raised his head and said arrogantly: "It's such a coincidence that my master happened to bump into me. Even God is helping Miss Xia. I can't help but believe it!" He smiled happily as if he had just hit his luck.
of.
Lan Tingmei was not grateful to him, and continued to say in a mocking tone: "Then Mr. Tang Qian will have to worry about it!".
Unexpectedly, Tang Tong waved his hands repeatedly after hearing this, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and quickly said: "If you find out that it was me, you will be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts. There is a more suitable candidate than me." He shook his head as he spoke.
beg for mercy.
Lan Tingmei ignored so much and said what was on her mind at once, "Do you want Uncle Xia to come forward?" She stared at Tang Tong with some disdain.
Tang Tong shook his head in denial, deliberately trying to show off his mystery, "What about Master Sheng?"
Before Lan Tingmei and Xia Xunqiu could react, Jian Chun laughed out loud and said, "I really am yours!".
Lan Tingmei was puzzled after hearing this. Tang Tong was so amazing. She really suspected that he came prepared and did not understand people as well as he was just scheming. Xia Xunqiu was very happy after hearing this, so she stood up
He saluted and said, "Thank you, Mr. Tang, for reminding me. We will handle it as appropriate." He was glad that he had met a caring person. Tang Tong, who seemed to be a rough guy, was full of clever ideas. When he got up, he couldn't help but look at him twice, only to find that Lan Tingmei and Lan Tingmei were with him.
Jian Chun was looking at him curiously.
Tang Tong glanced at Xia Xunqiu and felt her hostility. He quickly stopped his complacency and said, "Although this is unethical, it can lead to a good marriage, so it is worth it."
Xia Xunqiu said nothing, and Lan Tingmei smiled faintly. Only she knew what was in her heart. Jian Chun also looked at Tang Tong, and his heart was full of emotions. The four of them stood in a stalemate for a while, without saying anything.
At this time, Xia Xunqiu pulled Lan Tingmei aside, and the two murmured for a while. Only the two of them knew what they said specifically. After Tang Tong told the address, Xia Xunqiu asked Jianchun to send Lan Tingmei and Tang Tong off.
After leaving Xia Mansion, at the gate of Xia Mansion, Jian Chun watched the two people disappear on horseback, thinking about something in his heart before leaving.
Tang Tong first sent Lan Tingmei home, and the two rode back and forth. At first, the two were speechless, but Tang Tong chased after him and asked with a smile: "What did you say to Miss Xia?"
Lan Tingmei glanced at him and was not in a hurry to answer. Tang Tong still smiled and said: "It's okay if you don't say it. I know the carelessness. From the perspective of a friend, I still urge the Xia family to come forward, so that the Marquis of Yunyang
Only then will there be room for maneuver.”
Lan Tingmei didn't appreciate it and said bluntly, "I have already decided what to do, I don't need you to remind me!"...
After blocking the topic with one sentence, Tang Tong persisted and said: "I hope you can consider my suggestion, so at least the Marquis of Yunyang will not embarrass you."
