Chapter 59 My noble family is loved by everyone
It was quiet inside and outside Ningxiangju.
There were only some noises coming from the kitchen.
Murong Jin first went to the main room and then into the bedroom.
There was no one in the bedroom except for the cold fragrance.
Luo Fu was not there, and neither were Tinglan and Qinghe.
Murong Jin's face fell and he walked out again with his hands folded.
Chang'an and Deshun just came out of the side room beside the gate. One of them was holding a piece of steamed cake, and the other was holding a piece of dried meat and was about to put it in his mouth.
Suddenly seeing Murong Jin standing at the door of the main room, they were like seeing a ghost. They coughed so hard that their necks were thick. They knelt down and apologized: "Your Majesty, please spare my life! This, this is the reward given by Master Luo yesterday. I didn't finish it..."
Shouzhong hurried out of the kitchen when he heard the sound. Seeing Murong Jin standing in the corridor in front of the main house, he was so scared that he knelt down in a hurry.
Murong Jin stared at them: "Where did she go?"
Chang An hurriedly said, "Noble Lady Sun from Jinfu Pavilion sent someone to invite them, and Master Luo brought Tinglan and Qinghe over."
Murong Jin's face became even gloomier.
Chang An and the other two didn't dare to say a word, just waiting to be told to go find Luo Fu.
But he said nothing, and sat down on the balcony where Love often sat with his hands folded.
Chang'an and the other two knew that the emperor was waiting for Master Luo to come back.
I don't mean to kill anyone.
They stood up quietly, bowed and returned to their respective seats.
We waited until lunch time.
Someone finally came back to the door of Ningxiangju.
Ting Lan walked in with a smile, not paying attention to the balcony. She first saw Chang An and De Shun standing on either side of the door, and said with a smile: "What are you two standing there for? The master specially asked me to come back to tell you that I won't be back for lunch, so you can eat by yourselves."
After she finished speaking, she saw that the two men had strange expressions on their faces and kept looking back. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and when she looked over, she saw the emperor sitting on the balcony with his hands behind his back, staring at her.
Tinglan's face turned pale with fright.
I've been celebrating the holidays with Master Luo these past two days and I've completely forgotten everything.
In the past, she would always be careful and would never dare to speak so presumptuously.
She hurried to the front, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty."
Murong Jin's face was gloomy. "Why did she stay in Jinfu Pavilion for so long?"
Ting Lan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the noble lady is not in Jinfu Pavilion. She is in the old palace behind Jinfu Pavilion. At noon, the noble lady was invited to go to the garden with the noble lady Sun to appreciate the flowers. On the way, she ran into a concubine named Wen Xiangjun. The noble lady must have known her before entering the palace, so the noble lady was very happy and went with her to the old palace where the concubine Wen Xiangjun lived."
Murong Jin snorted lightly: "I know a lot of people."
He had always been by her side before she entered the palace. Only that time when he fell asleep while she was eating buns in the teahouse's side room, she went to the spice shop near the Imperial College by herself and met a woman who helped her to fight for justice.
I think it must be the selected concubine.
Ting Lan observed his expression and asked carefully, "Your Majesty, would you like me to call the noble lady back?"
"Let her be."
Murong Jin waved his hand dejectedly and asked Tinglan to go back.
Tinglan quickly stood up and quietly retreated.
Chang'an and the other two looked at Tinglan with envy as she was able to return to Luo Fu.
When Master Luo was away, Ningxiang Residence fell into darkness along with the emperor.
Shouzhong stepped forward tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty, this afternoon I made rose goose oil noodle soup with steamed buns, chicken marrow bamboo shoots, jade soup, and vegetable and tofu soup for Master Luo. Master Luo won't be home for dinner, so would you mind having some?"
Murong Jin had eaten the three meals that Luo Fu had provided him with on time over the past two days, but since no one was around today, he had no appetite and waved his hand dejectedly.
The emperor didn't eat it, and Shouzhong and the others didn't dare to eat it either. They just carefully retreated to their respective seats, hoping that the owner of Ningxiangju would come back soon.
Love came back in the afternoon.
When they were at the door, Lan said subtly, "Chang Jin is back."
Luo Fu looked up and saw Chang Jin sitting on the porch with his eyes closed, leaning listlessly against the fence.
"Why are you sleeping here?"
She walked over and called softly, "Long Ember, Long Ember."
Those narrow and deep eyes opened, and there was no sleepiness in them.
Luo Fu was stunned: "You are not sleeping."
Murong Jin looked at her and said, "I was about to sleep, but I've been so alert waiting for you."
Love sighed upon hearing this.
He was asked to change his temper before playing with Shouzhong and the others, but he refused to do so.
Sure enough, no one paid any attention to him when she was not around.
I just came back and felt that the atmosphere in the yard was not right.
But it's not his fault.
It is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature. It is not easy to change one's temper.
She had no choice but to persuade him from another perspective: "When I'm not around, you can do other things. It's a waste of time to always wait for me."
Murong Jin's gloomy expression dissipated. He stood up and half-circled with her back to the house: "Then tell me, my dear, what can I do?"
His question stumped Love.
What can Chang Jin do?
He is so out of touch with reality, unlike normal people.
He was fine when he was with her, but when he was alone, she really couldn't imagine what he could do.
Seeing her frowning and thinking seriously, Murong Jin couldn't help but smile. After a long time, her dissatisfaction also dissipated. He helped her sit down on the embroidered cushion, half-circled her and asked knowingly: "When did you become so close with the people in Jinfu Pavilion? You came back from playing until now, and didn't even take a nap?"
Speaking of this, Luo Fu laughed and said, "We are not that close. We went to appreciate the flowers together at first, but we ran into an acquaintance. Chang Jin, do you remember when you had a headache outside the palace and fell asleep in the teahouse, and when I went to the Imperial College to open a shop?
There was a playboy who wanted to strike up a conversation with me, but a dashing girl nearby helped me to chase him away. I wanted to invite her to have tea with me, but the woman next to her pulled her away.
I thought I would never see her again, but unexpectedly I ran into her in the inner court. It was truly fate. I couldn't help but have dinner with her and chat for a while longer."
Murong Jin listened and said lazily in surprise, "Even strangers are willing to help my nobleman. It shows that my nobleman is really popular and everyone likes him."
Luo Fu felt a little embarrassed when she heard this: "How can it be that exaggerated? Sister Xiangjun is a good person, but her family background is even lower than that of Lady Zhao, so her share is even less. We must help her more."
Murong Jin said, "Your Excellency wants to help Consort Zhao, and now you want to help that concubine. Tsk, I wonder if your little treasury can handle it."
Luo Fu said, "I have a shop outside, I can definitely handle it."
Speaking of the shop, she couldn't help but feel both excited and melancholy.
In half a month, Shanglu and Rendong would send money in, but she couldn't see them and didn't know how they were doing outside.
