Chapter 056 Chapter 56
Mei Xuezheng left.
Xie Qingya waited for him to leave, then he stood up and walked out.
The door opens.
Changfeng and Lingji were both waiting outside.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Changfeng immediately followed him, ready to go with him.
Xie Qingya didn't even turn his head and said to him, "No need to follow me."
Changfeng looked worried.
He was afraid that if the prince met with Sanlang alone, Sanlang would not be happy with the prince.
But seeing that the prince had already walked away, he did not dare to disobey the prince and could only stop and watch the prince walk out of the yard.
Changfeng couldn't see anyone anymore, he sighed and looked away.
I wanted to go inside to clean up first, but I saw Lingji beside me, for some reason, holding his knife, in a daze.
"What's wrong?"
Having grown up together, Changfeng knows his brother's personality best.
A person who is usually carefree suddenly becomes so serious.
Changfeng has never seen it before.
After asking, Changfeng didn't hear his voice again, so he patted his shoulder.
Seeing Lingji raising his head in surprise, Changfeng's brows furrowed even deeper. He frowned and looked at him, "What are you thinking about? You look so absent-minded."
Only then did Lingji come to his senses.
"No, nothing." He denied subconsciously.
As if to cover up something, Lingji didn't dare to look at anyone, his eyes were darting around, and he asked for something to talk about: "Where is the prince?"
Changfeng looked at him and raised his eyebrows: "The prince went to see Sanlang, didn't you hear it just now?"
Lingji turned around to look at him, opened his mouth and let out a cry.
He had been so absorbed in his own thoughts that he hadn't noticed.
Changfeng found it even more strange to see him like this.
"What's wrong with you?" he asked Lingji again, "What happened when I was away?"
Come to think of it, it could only have happened during this period of time.
This book is compiled exclusively for you by the LK team. When he left just now, the ringgit was still fine. Did Lord Mei and the prince say something?
Changfeng looked at Lingji, frowning in thought.
But how could Lingji dare to tell such a big secret? Even if the other party was Changfeng, he was still hesitant and refused to say it.
Changfeng looked at him for a while.
After calming down and thinking about it, he realized that if there was really something, Lingji would not hide it from him.
I guess it's not a big deal.
Thinking of this, Changfeng gave up and did not force the person to answer.
It's normal to have some secrets in life.
As long as it doesn't affect the prince.
He looked at the ringgit that he didn't even dare to look at, so he ignored him and went inside to pack his things.
Instead it is the ringgit.
He was already shocked that he had to keep such a big secret, but he didn't dare to ask the prince directly.
Tangles come and go.
Lingji finally couldn't help himself and followed Changfeng in. While watching them pack up, he made small talk with them, "Changfeng, do you know that the prince..."
"What happened to the prince?"
Seeing that the matter concerned the prince, Changfeng quickly turned around and asked.
"Ah, no, nothing." Seeing his nervous look, Lingji suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
He lowered his head.
His fingers fumbled uncomfortably with his elbow.
However, out of the corner of his eye he could see Changfeng looking at him with a thoughtful look on his face, and Lingji knew he couldn't hide his situation from him.
Besides, he really needed to tell this big secret to his good brother.
Otherwise, he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep well tonight.
After gritting his teeth, Lingji finally raised his head.
He first glanced outside.
After making sure that no one was around, he lowered his voice and asked Changfeng: "...Do you know that the prince had someone he liked before?"
He didn't dare say it directly.
Instead, he spoke to Changfeng in a roundabout way.
"What?"
Changfeng was still wondering what had happened to cause the ringgit to become like this, but when he heard this, he was stunned.
Of course, he didn't say that because of these words.
But I was wondering, how did Ringgit know?
But how could Ringgit know so much?
He just thought Changfeng was just like him and knew nothing.
He continued to speak in a low voice, "You don't know either, do you? I was shocked when I found out just now. The prince, he actually..."
As for the following words, he didn't dare to say anything.
After all, it involved the prince's private affairs, and he didn't dare to reveal it even to Changfeng.
If the person in front of him at this moment was not Changfeng.
He probably didn't even dare to tell anyone what he just said.
His mind was still full of thoughts.
The prince actually likes the princess?
Even fell in love with it very early on?
When?
This is incredible...
No wonder the prince was so anxious when the princess didn’t come back that night.
He said that the king looked strange that day.
It turns out that the prince likes the princess...
My mind is full of thoughts.
Lingji just felt that his brain was filled with all kinds of things and was bloated.
"How do you know that?"
When Lingji heard Changfeng asking him, he didn't think much about it at first. He picked out the answers he could and whispered to others, "Just now, I accidentally heard Lord Wang and Lord Mei talking about it..."
He was still thinking, if Changfeng asked more questions, how would he answer better.
Unexpectedly, Changfeng just nodded and said to him, "I understand." Then he turned around and continued to pack his things, and also told him, "Don't talk about this. The prince doesn't want others to know."
Lingji nodded instinctively.
"I know. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have said that."
This is true.
He was reckless by nature, but as long as it involved the prince's affairs, he knew very well what he could say, what he could not say, and to whom he could say it.
After Lingji finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Changfeng didn't ask too many questions, otherwise, he really wouldn't know what to say.
The secret was out, although only half of it was out, but Lingji still felt much more relieved.
He held the knife, leaned against the table, and said with emotion: "I really didn't expect that our prince actually has someone he likes."
The person I like is still that person...
He had never noticed!
After expressing his feelings, Lingji glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that Changfeng didn't react at all.
Still packing up quietly.
He initially thought that Changfeng was a calm person, unlike him who would get startled easily, so it was normal for him not to react.
But after thinking carefully about what Changfeng had just said.
Lingji still felt that he looked too calm.
A thought suddenly flashed through my mind.
He suddenly became smart, looked at Changfeng, and asked hesitantly: "You, have you known this for a long time?"
Apart from this possibility, he really couldn't think of any other reason.
Changfeng paused in packing his things.
He didn't expect Lingji to guess it, but it was not something that could not be said.
Changfeng nodded without hesitation.
Seeing Lingji's eyes widen, Changfeng spoke before anyone could say anything, "It happened a long time ago. Since then, the prince and the princess have experienced so many things. I thought the prince had let it go long ago."
But now it seems that the prince has not let it go.
This is not really a strange thing.
Since the prince has told Lord Mei, I think he has already made up his mind.
But there was one thing he really wanted to know.
He asked Lingji: "Did the prince mention this to Lord Mei? What else did he say?"
The ringgit is still in shock.
But he was still conscious, and when Changfeng asked him about it, he did not hide anything and told everyone everything: "The prince asked Master Mei not to harm the princess."
After saying that, he couldn't help but said, "How come you knew that? I was the only one who didn't know. I thought..."
Changfeng ignored his mumbling and thought about this matter.
It seems that the prince has no intention of telling the princess his feelings.
The reason I told Lord Mei about this was simply because I was afraid that the princess would be harmed in the future.
Changfeng sighed.
Seeing Lingji still mumbling, he said in a deep voice, "Don't tell anyone about this, understand? And don't tell the princess either."
Lingji is not a fool, he naturally knows it.
"I understand." He agreed in a drawling voice.
I felt a little unhappy because I was the last one to discover it.
Changfeng looked at him and added, "Prince, don't ask too many questions."
"Why?"
When Lingji heard this, he raised his head.
He doesn't understand.
He thought it was some kind of secret, so he didn't dare to ask.
But since Changfeng already knows everything, then what is there not to ask?
Changfeng ignored him and just stared at the desk in front of him in silence. After a while, he said, "Don't ask if I tell you not to. If you ask and get punished by the prince, don't expect me to help you."
This is indeed true.
When Lingji heard this, he immediately shut his mouth and stopped talking.
…
Xie Qingya had already walked to Xie Ping'an's yard.
Xie Ping'an doesn't like quarrels, and now he only has a servant serving him personally.
The name is auspicious.
When Xie Qingya went in.
Jixiang was coming from the small room at the back with some tea, preparing to go into the house to change the tea for his husband.
Xie Pingan studies hard.
Unless he was sick with a fever and really couldn't concentrate on reading, he would read until the end of the night or the beginning of the night before going to bed every night.
It’s not even the beginning of the year yet.
Xie Pingan can still read for an hour.
Hearing the footsteps coming from outside, Jixiang thought he had heard it wrongly. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall and straight figure walking towards him from outside.
There weren't many lights on in the yard.
Xie Qingya himself did not carry a lamp.
When Jixiang looked over, he only saw a tall silhouette, but for a moment he couldn't tell who the person was.
"who?"
He shouted first.
Before Xie Qingya answered, Xie Pingan, who was reading inside, heard it first and asked, "What's the matter?" This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team for you. "My dear, it seems that someone is here. I'll go and take a look."
Jixiang Chong responded and went over with the tea.
When Xie Pingan came out with the book in his hand to investigate, he heard Jixiang shouting in surprise, "Prince? Why are you here?"
謝平安那一句“誰”還沒來得及問出，就這麽卡在了喉嚨裏。
他看着出現在院子裏的，那個高大的身影，握着書的手，一點點用力握緊了。
“王爺，您怎麽也不拿個燈籠啊？”吉祥倒是高興地跟謝清崖說着話，還招呼着人，讓他往裏面喝茶去。
謝清崖沒說話。
他已經注意到平安出來了。
兄弟倆隔着這麽一段距離，遙遙相望，誰也沒有先開口說話。
過了一會。
吉祥也察覺到兄弟倆之間的氣氛了。
其實這些年，誰都知道，他們郎君跟王爺不對付，只是平時兩人很少碰面，吉祥一時高興，便也就忘了。
此時他一會看看身邊的王爺，一會看看不遠處的郎君。
正想着該說些什麽，緩和氣氛的時候，就聽前頭郎君先冷着嗓子發了話——
“你來做什麽？”
依舊是不待見的冷漠語氣。
吉祥不知道他身邊的王爺，是個什麽反應，反正他是吓了一跳。
“郎君……”
他央求着喊人，生怕這兩位祖宗又鬧起來。
可謝平安豈會聽他的話？
最開始，看到謝清崖出現而産生的震驚，此刻已經消失不見。
此時的謝平安，看着謝清崖的俊臉冰冷，臉上寫滿了不待見。
只有握着書的手。
不知是何緣故，依舊緊緊握着，未曾松開。
謝清崖看着他，沒有立刻說話。
他已經有很長一陣子，沒有這樣仔細的，看過他這個弟弟了。
每次被他用那雙厭惡的眼睛看着，謝清崖便會下意識回避開他的視線，只想逃離。
就連剛才，走向這座熟悉院落時。
他的心裏，也不是沒産生過猶豫和退怯。
看着遠處那個滿臉戾氣和不爽的少年，謝清崖的心裏寫滿了自責。
謝平安卻不知道，他在想什麽。
他也看不到，謝清崖此時眼中的哀傷和自責，他只看到了謝清崖望向他的目光。
不知道他在看什麽。
但光看着他、不說話的謝清崖，令謝平安更加惱火，心裏的無名火也因此燒得更旺了。
不知道謝清崖要做什麽。
謝平安見他遲遲不語，直接冷着臉喊道：“吉祥，送客！”
說罷。
他便緊攥着手裏的書，準備進屋去。
“郎君！”
吉祥忙喊了一聲。
王爺好不容易過來，他希望他們能好好談談。
還沒來得及說別的，就聽到身側王爺開口了：“謝平安，我們聊聊。”
然後他就看到，剛才還準備進屋去的郎君，忽然停住了腳步，側過身、皺着眉，朝他們這邊，再次看了過來。
而身邊的王爺，則朝郎君那邊走了過去。
吉祥下意識，想跟過去。
又怕打擾他們說話。
想了想，最後還是留在原地，沒敢過去。
“聊聊？”謝清崖已經走到謝平安面前了，少年的臉上依舊寫滿了不歡迎。
但謝清崖這次，卻沒有因為心中的怯弱，而躲開。
他直視着眼前的少年。
眼見少年英眉越來越皺，最後撇開臉，沉着嗓子跟他說：“我跟你，沒什麽好聊的。”
卻也沒走。
顯然是在等着謝清崖往下說。
謝清崖知道他不喜歡看到他，也就沒有繼續拖延，他看着他說：“長寧的事，我會解決，你好好讀書，別去沾惹。”
“你會解決？”
謝平安被這句話刺痛，猛地轉回頭。
他直視着謝清崖的臉，不知道想到什麽，怒火再次充斥于他的心中，他忽然沖着謝清崖喊道：“你這些年，解決過什麽事？你整天渾渾噩噩，醉生夢死！弄得我們家不成家！你來解決？”
“謝清崖，你能解決什麽，啊？”
憤怒、委屈……
各種不平的情緒，此刻全部一擁而上。
謝平安紅了眼睛，他用力丢掉了手中的書，忽然，他大步上前，一把攥緊了臺階下謝清崖的衣襟。
另一只手。
則高高舉起，欲往人臉上砸去。
“郎君！”
吉祥被他的舉動吓了一跳。
他臉都白了，連忙跑了過來，就連茶水晃出，杯子掉落，也顧不上了。
但還沒跑到兩人身邊。
謝清崖就伸手先把人揮退了。
“別過來！”
他的聲音因為脖子處的壓迫，而顯得有些嘶啞。
之後，他繼續看着，眼前這個雙眼通紅的少年，與他啞聲說道：“我對不住你和長寧，我欠你們的，這輩子都還不清。”
他說着閉上了眼睛，一副任人宰割的樣子。
顯然是不準備反擊，任他出氣。
謝平安看着他，他那張與謝清崖有幾分相似的俊臉，因痛苦和氣憤而略顯扭曲。
他粗喘着氣。
幾次想把高舉的拳頭往人身上砸去，就像從前一樣。
但最終，謝平安還是松開了手。
他一把放開了謝清崖。
謝清崖因此往後趔趄了兩步，被跑過來的吉祥連忙扶住。
“咳、咳。”
脖子被衣襟禁锢了太久，有些難受。
謝清崖低着頭，咳嗽着。
“王爺，您沒事吧？”吉祥看着他擔憂不已。
謝清崖沒說話。
他擺了擺手，示意自己沒事，他繼續朝前面的少年看去。
謝平安一點點彎腰，撿起先前被他丢在地上的書，他的手指也在微微顫抖。
他壓抑着。
最終卻還是沒什麽效果，索性不再理會。
謝平安拍了拍書面上并未沾染的塵埃，聲音同樣嘶啞：“我現在不會對付他們。”
“我知道自己現在什麽能力。”
他是想過要動手。
但對付和長寧一樣的女娘，有什麽用？
保不準還會讓長寧感到不安。
再說，她畢竟還要在屈家讀書，難道日後，要讓她繼續，以另一種形式，被人孤立嗎？
難道他也要讓那些人，害怕長寧嗎？
至于他們的父兄——
他倒是想。
但他也知道，他現在還沒這個能力。
與其鬧到最後，一敗塗地，還惹得長寧難過，還不如謀而後動。
他總會長大。
總有一日，他會讓欺負他們的人，全都跪在他們的面前求饒！
而在此之前，他會更加努力地往上爬。
謝平安抻着一股子勁，梗着脖子，和面前的謝清崖說道：“所以你不用跑來跟我說這些。”
“我知道該怎麽做。”
“你與其擔心我，倒不如對你的妻子好一些。”謝平安看着謝清崖說，“長寧很喜歡她，如果你不想她日後再難過，就對人好些。”
他言盡于此。
“我要看書了，你可以走了。”謝平安說完，便頭也不回地進去了。
謝清崖看着他的背影。
本能張口，可話到嘴邊，又被他重新咽了回去。
看着少年進去的身影，謝清崖最終還是收回了視線。
他低着頭，沒有說話。
廊下燈籠照出來的光，拉長了謝清崖的身影，燈籠搖晃，地上的影子也跟着一明一滅。
吉祥還在他身邊，滿臉不安。
看不到王爺臉上的神情，吉祥擔心不已：“王爺，我們郎君他……”
他本想替他家郎君說話，張口，卻成了個鋸嘴葫蘆。
他也實在不知道說什麽。
只能急得滿臉通紅。
他是怕王爺生氣。
不過這個，他倒是多慮了。
謝清崖早就預料過這樣的場景，說真的，那一拳頭沒下來，反而令他吃驚。
“沒事。”
謝清崖沙啞着嗓音，跟吉祥說：“進去照顧你家郎君吧，有什麽事，就跟……”
他沉默了一會，才接着說：“昌豐他們說。”
吉祥連聲答應。
謝清崖重新往前邊的屋子看去。
已經看不到謝平安的身影，謝清崖卻看了好一會，才轉身離開。
吉祥想送他。
被謝清崖攔住了。
沒讓他送，謝清崖自己出去了。
吉祥只好止步于原地。
待目送王爺離開，吉祥方才無奈地回過頭。
才回頭，就瞧見他家郎君，正站在靠近院子的窗子處，望着他這邊。
又像是在看更遠的地方。
離得遠。
他看不到郎君臉上的神情。
想張口喊人的時候，那面窗子處，便又沒有他家郎君的身影了。
轉瞬即逝。
那速度快得，都讓吉祥以為，是自己眼花了。
……
這日之後。
長寧照舊去屈家的女學上學。
屈家三姐妹這幾日則不在。
她們，連帶着她們的父親，都被屈老處置了家法。
屈家家法森嚴。
如今她們都還躺在床上，起不來呢。
至于其餘四戶人家，也都寫了拜帖、送了貴重的禮物，意圖登門拜見徐端宜。
徐端宜自不會自作主張。
她問過謝清崖的意思。
沒見。
也沒收禮物。
但幾日之後。
這幾戶人家的主君，竟都被人在朝中彈劾，這事，徐端宜最初是從她表嫂口中得知的。
“被彈劾了？”
這日。
徐端宜跟她表嫂出來逛街。
舅母生辰在即，她今日是與表嫂一道出來選購禮物的。
這會東西都已經選購好了，她們坐在珍寶齋的二樓廂房，一邊喝茶說話，一邊在等人包裝好東西。
彈劾這事。
便是她們閑話時，明氏與徐端宜說起的。
冷不丁從表嫂口中得知這個消息，徐端宜自是吃驚，而吃驚之後，她的心裏也跟着湧起一股擔心。
她怕這事是謝清崖所為，更怕旁人知曉。
不清楚，這究竟是怎麽一回事，徐端宜也不敢貿然露出端倪，只能繼續問身側的表嫂：“表嫂可知是誰彈劾的？”
“你不知道？”
明氏倒比她還吃驚。
徐端宜一聽這話，心裏自是更為不安起來。
難不成還真是謝清崖？
正要說話時，徐端宜便又聽她表嫂說道：“是那位李文高李大人，我還以為你知道呢。”
這卻和自己所想不同。
徐端宜怔了怔：“李文高？”
她記性好，自然記得這人是誰，便說：“翰林院的李大人？”
明氏看她這副模樣，便知，端宜是真的什麽都不知道了。
也是。
她跟南安王那個關系……
不知道也是正常的。
明氏想到那間，明顯不是夫婦共同住的屋子，就打心裏為端宜感到難過。
她自是不會說那些“你家王爺沒與你說嗎”這樣的蠢話，免得害端宜傷心，便繼續與人說道：“這李大人，如今可不是翰林院的人了，我聽你表兄說，這位李大人如今已經進順天府衙了。”
窗子開着。
能聽到外頭的車水馬龍，和各種吆喝叫賣聲。
明氏握着一盞茶，喝了口後，在端宜驚訝的注視下，接着與人說道：“聽說是那位李大人自己要求的，翰林院的老大人幫着舉薦，姑姑也同意了。”
本書由LK團隊為您獨家整理 她是知道些八卦的。
“這李大人，一去就直接被封作通判了，這可是直接跳了兩級呢，可見這老大人對他的看重。”
“怪不得外頭都在傳，這老大人想把自己的孫女，許配給這位李大人。”
李文高榜眼出身，之前在翰林院任正七品編修一職。
而這順天府的通判則是正六品。
入仕還未一年，卻能連跳兩級，的确可見其不一般。
不過徐端宜還是不明白。
這李文高好端端的，為何要彈劾這四戶人家。
還正好就是這四戶。
難不成，真就這麽巧，這四戶人家同時得罪他了？還是，他知道了一些什麽？
徐端宜想不通。
明氏卻不知道徐端宜在想什麽，她還在旁邊感慨着：“但這話又說回來，能在翰林院當值的，誰又會去順天府衙那樣的地方呢？這李文高，倒的确是個人物。”
她倒是不知道。
這李文高究竟為何去順天府衙。
若不是他這次接連彈劾了四人，她都不知道，這朝中還有這樣的人物。
不過她為何知曉這事，卻還是因為端宜的緣故。
她也是與夫君聊天的時候，才知道，這李文高這次彈劾這四人，起因竟是因為端宜。
她也是那時才知道，這李文高當初竟被端宜救過。
可以說，若不是因為端宜當初的施以援手，這偌大的京城，根本不會有他李文高的一席之地。
別說高中榜眼了。
恐怕早在去年，這人就已經卷包袱離開了。
不過這事，要真說起來，還是因為那南安王。
聽說這李文高入順天府衙的第一日，這南安王就不在府衙之中。
他平日浪蕩慣了。
又因其身份貴重，其餘府衙的官員，也都不敢評判他們這位頂頭上司。
可李文高是什麽人？
他不畏強權，一來知曉自己這位頂頭上司不在，自然就派人出去找了。
一打聽，便知曉。
這南安王竟然是去鬧事了。
順天府衙，掌管并執行京城的一切政令，宣導教化、和順人心。①
通俗點講。
那就是統管一切大小事務，最重要的就是百姓的安保問題。
李文高新官上任三把火，正想好好施展下拳腳。
沒想到這第一把火，就這麽燒起來了。
李文高得知他這頂頭上司鬧事，不僅沒有跟其餘官員似的，要為他遮掩，反而直接大張旗鼓帶着人，去找謝清崖了。
原本他是打算，直接收拾自己這個頂頭上司。
沒想到去了才知道，這四戶人家做的事。
明氏簡單與徐端宜說了下這事的起因，說完之後，便一臉無奈地看着徐端宜，說她：“你啊，就是太好脾氣，那些人這麽欺負你那小姑子，你既出面幫人了，為何不把那些人好好收拾一番？”
“倒惹得他們拿着雞毛當令箭。”
“你家王爺那脾氣，本就不是個能壓事的，沒得他又因為這事跟你不對付。”
明氏說到底，還是擔心這個。
但徐端宜的心思卻不在這個上面，她還在李文高彈劾這件事情上。
她總覺得這事，有些古怪。
“所以李大人是因為這個，彈劾了他們？”
明氏也沒多想，點了點頭：“便是因為這個。”
其實當日，還鬧出點周折。
那些人被南安王鬧事的時候，其中有人說了一句“嘉順長公主已經出面作罷這件事了，王爺又何必不依不饒？”
恰是這句話，直接燒到了李文高的頭上。
這李文高，一向敬仰徐端宜，便是下定決心來這順天府衙，有大半原因，也是因為當日徐端宜說的那番話。
也因此，看着那些人家拿着徐端宜的話，如此叫嚣。
李文高自然不能忍。
當場就直接冷着臉，訓斥了過去，說了句“嘉順長公主心善，不與你們計較，你們倒好，不知悔改，還敢如此嚣張！”
于是這一把，本該燒到謝清崖頭上的火，就這麽燒到了這四戶人家頭上。
隔日。
李文高便上書彈劾了這四家。
也就有了明氏與徐端宜說起這番話。
徐端宜聽完之後，還是有些不可思議。
這事竟就這麽巧？
但聽下來，好似的确沒什麽奇怪之處，一切都是那麽的理所當然。
“怎麽了？”
明氏問她。
徐端宜聞言，便也收攏了自己的思緒，沖明氏笑了一下：“沒什麽，就是沒想到這事，會是這樣一個結果。”
她簡單一句之後，又問明氏：“那這事，可有處置的法子了？”
徐端宜本以為這事鬧到這樣，頂多也就是被訓斥懲戒，或是罰些月俸。
沒想到——
“其中兩位大人，被罰了半年的俸祿，還有兩位，怕是要被罷官收監了。”
“什麽？”
徐端宜眨了下眼，有些沒想到：“怎麽會這麽嚴重？”
明氏雖是內宅婦人，但平時常與自己夫君聊起這些事，自然也要多知道一些。
她沒隐瞞，跟徐端宜簡單說了句：“這兩人，底子都不幹淨，被那李文高一彈劾，竟也有禦史臺的人出面彈劾他們。”
“才知曉，他們這些年私下沒少貪污。”
“拔出蘿蔔帶出泥的，他們這次也算是栽了。”
這樣的事，明氏見得多了，随口說完，也沒多想。
倒是這時，門外傳來她貼身婢子的聲音：“夫人，長公主，東西都已經收拾好了。”
明氏嗯一聲：“知道了，去把馬車牽來。”
等婢子領命前去，明氏便又轉過頭，與徐端宜說：“今日逛得也差不多了，走吧，回去了。”
她也不好出來太久。
徐端宜應聲說好。
不管心中作何想法，她面上卻是瞧不出什麽。
明氏自然也沒看出什麽，與她一道下樓的時候，也只是叮囑了一句：“這李文高，雖然如今是順天府衙的人，但他背後有老大人，便是有整個翰林院，可以說這李文高是拿了尚方寶劍來的。”
“你跟你家王爺說一聲，這陣子就別惹是生非了。”
“真要鬧出個什麽，這李文高，可不會看在他是他頂頭上司的份上，就從輕發落。”
明氏搖頭：“我瞧他那個架勢，以後這順天府衙可有的熱鬧了。”
她說這些，自然不是為了謝清崖着想。
但端宜如今畢竟是南安王妃，夫婦一體，她總得為端宜着想。
這樣想着。
明氏又實在是有些心疼她。
這南安王，從前是意氣風發、青年才俊不說，可如今，他早就成了個人憎狗嫌的性子。
除了那一張好面貌，還有什麽出挑之處？
就連自家妹子被人欺負了，也只知道鬧事。
半點沒有謀算。
就這樣的人，她如何放心，端宜與他過一輩子？
婢子們拿着東西，跟在她們身後，明氏則挽着徐端宜的手，邊走邊說：“我前幾日進宮見姑姑了。”
“姨母如何？”徐端宜忙問。
她自那日回門日後，就一直被各種事情纏繞着，無多少閑暇時間，心裏也有些擔心，怕姨母知道雪芙的事，也怕自己難以面對姨母。
被姨母瞧出些什麽。
因此這陣子，她也沒敢去宮裏。
“姑姑一切都好，就是想你，你尋個時間，記得去宮裏看看她。”明氏握着徐端宜的手說。
徐端宜點點頭，說好。
姑嫂倆邊說，邊往停在路邊的馬車走去。
“王爺，是王妃！”此時長街上，喬裝過的令吉，忽然壓着嗓音跟身側戴着帷帽，同樣喬裝過的男人說了一聲。
謝清崖循聲看去。
透過薄薄的黑色紗簾，果真瞧見徐端宜和她那位表嫂，從一間珍寶齋出來。
雖然喬裝後，又戴着帷帽。
But Xie Qingya was still afraid of being recognized, and when he was about to ride away, he heard Ming say, "Duanyi, from what I heard from my aunt, she doesn't mind you liking someone else."
"What?"
This sudden sentence left Xu Duanyi somewhat unresponsive.
However, Xie Qingya, who was about to ride away, suddenly slowed down, holding the reins.
Today, he was dressed like a gangster, so naturally he would not attract the attention of others.
When Ming heard the sound of horse hooves coming, she just glanced at it casually, then frowned and looked away.
She continued to talk to Xu Duanyi: "If the Prince of Nan'an is really not good to you, then we should not want him and find another husband."
"There are so many people in the capital who like you, what does Xie Qingya count for?"
Ming really hoped from the bottom of her heart that Xu Duanyi could have a husband who loved her.
Xu Duanyi was so amused by her words that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"
Ming glared at her: "I am just thinking about you."
"You never say anything. My aunt and I are afraid that you will be wronged. After all, this marriage has been arranged. If you are not happy, then we can separate. I think those people in the court will not say anything more."
"Then I'll find a good one for you myself!"
Ming became more and more excited as he spoke.
Xu Duanyi felt both amused and helpless.
She really didn't expect that her sister-in-law would say such a thing.
Just as she was about to speak, Xu Duanyi suddenly felt as if someone was looking at her in front.
Look up in doubt.
Xu Duanyi saw a man in black suit.
The man was dressed like a chivalrous man of the martial arts world, wearing a martial arts hat and carrying a large sword on his back. His face was hidden by a gauze curtain, so Xu Duanyi could not see clearly, but could vaguely see the man's beard.
It seemed as if he hadn't expected her to look over there.
The man, who had been standing there for unknown reasons, suddenly turned around, and soon he and the people around him rode away.
The horses' hooves kicked up dust.
Xu Duanyi looked at him as he left without saying a word.
Ming, on the other hand, noticed that she was looking at one place. She followed her line of sight but saw nothing.
"Duanyi, what are you looking at?"
Xu Duanyi: "Nothing."
As she spoke, she looked away, but in her heart she felt that the figure looked vaguely familiar.
But she didn't think much about it.
However, after this incident, Ming did not dwell on the topic anymore and continued to talk to Xu Duanyi. Before leaving, she only warned him carefully not to keep silent about any grievances he had suffered.
If something really happens, just change your husband, it’s not a big deal.
