Chapter 290 It’s not too late to meet him again
Turning around, I saw Wang San lying on the ground, pointing and shouting ahead.
Looking in the direction he pointed, a man ran into the alley quickly, holding the one hundred taels that Yun Ji had just thrown to Wang San.
"Thief! There's a thief! Catch the thief!" Wang San turned around and shouted at Chen Duo and others.
Chen Duo scratched his ear and asked, "Are you mistaken? We are the Yanzhou Army, not responsible for catching petty thieves. If you want to catch a thief, go to the government and report it."
"By the time I went to report the crime, the thief had disappeared."
"Then this is your business. I gave you the silver, but you got robbed. You can't blame anyone else." Chen Duo shrugged helplessly and turned to leave.
Wang San hurriedly grabbed his arm and kept insisting, "It's you! You're one of yours! You gave me money first, tricked me into signing the document, and then stole my money!"
Chen Duo turned around, and his sharp eyes and the murderous aura he had acquired from the battlefield frightened Wang San so much that he let go and took two steps back, only managing to avoid falling to the ground.
"You need to have evidence when speaking or doing things. Slandering soldiers will result in a beating with a military stick. You'd better think carefully before speaking."
A military stick can kill people.
Wang Sanming knew that they were the ones who had done something wrong. He was unwilling to accept it, but he didn't dare to confront them head-on. He could only grit his teeth and viciously scratch the mother and daughter who were huddled together in the corner, then ran away in embarrassment.
"good!"
As soon as one person started cheering, they followed one after another.
Although it was a bit of a forceful measure, it also allowed him to vent his anger and let everyone know that the law is not immutable. If he used his brain, he could use the opponent's force to counter the opponent's force.
Chen Duo's face turned red from the cheers, and he scratched the back of his head but couldn't stop laughing.
Yun Ji had just returned to Yanzhou and had other matters to deal with with Wang Wuwei, so he left the rest of the matters to Shen Duo to handle and left first.
Seeing Yun Ji coming, Rong Huan withdrew her gaze and signaled the carriage to continue moving forward.
Knowing that the princess had stopped the carriage for Prince Yong, Huaishuang asked carefully, "Princess, are we going to stay in Yanzhou for a while?"
"No need. If we stay under his nose, we will be discovered as soon as we set foot here, which would be bad. Let's go back. It won't be too late to meet him then." Rong Huan's lips curled up into a smile, and she seemed to be looking forward to it.
…
As the hundredth day of the Golden and Silver Groups approached, Prince Yong's mansion became busy.
The imperial decree for Su Rui to be in charge of receiving Princess Dongyue was also issued. The arrival of the officials from the Honglu Temple added to the already busy Prince Yong's Mansion.
Today, another pile of clothes and jewelry was delivered. Xiaoru couldn't help complaining about sorting them out: "We are not officials of the Honglu Temple. There are so many of them, and they have to target us. They come to us for the smallest matter, and there are so many things. Even if the other party is the eldest princess of Dongyue, there is no need to be so particular. I will have to change so many clothes by then. It will be exhausting."
Su Rui and Luo E laughed out loud when they heard this. Xiao Ru looked at them puzzled and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at your bad temper. I gave you clothes and jewelry, but you still disliked them." Su Rui said with a smile.
"That's right. There are so many. How can I wear them all in one day? I have to keep changing them. It's so tiring."
"You don't have to wear all of this clothing in one day," Luo'e explained with a helpless smile. "Princess Dongyue will definitely stay in Shengjing for a while, and as a concubine, she'll be there for you, not just at banquets but also on a daily basis. Diplomacy between two countries requires careful attention to clothing, accessories, behavior, and even every move."
Xiaoru didn't understand so much and felt exhausted just listening. She looked at Su Rui with a pitiful expression. "This sounds like a tough job."
"Indeed, so I'll take you there when the time comes." Su Rui said deliberately.
"No!" Xiaoru immediately made a bitter face. "I don't understand those things. If I get into trouble later, Sister Luo'e should go. She is the most suitable person."
At this moment, the little girl no longer cared about sisterly love and immediately pushed Luo E out.
Luo E was about to scold her when the maid outside came in to report: "Concubine, someone from the palace is here to ask you to come in. She said the Empress has summoned you."
The smile on Su Rui's face immediately faded.
After waiting for so many days, it finally came.
But this time Su Rui did not enter the palace alone. Instead, she brought a gold ball and a silver ball with her. Xiaoru and Luo'e each held one and followed her out.
The eunuch waiting outside the door was surprised to see Su Rui with two three-month-old twins. He was stunned for a moment, but did not dare to ask any more questions.
They took a carriage all the way to the palace. Because they were carrying two babies and they were not suitable to be exposed to the wind, the palace had already prepared a sedan chair after receiving the news.
But Luo'e and Xiaoru couldn't sit, so Su Rui had to hold one in each hand and sit them.
As soon as they got closer, Jin Tuan wanted to reach out to Yin Tuan, but Su Rui stopped him with a stern look and said, "Today is not like the mansion. Let the two of you act recklessly. Just behave yourself."
I don’t know if they understood Su Rui’s words or sensed her unusual aura, but the two little ones were living in peace with each other, which was rare.
The journey wasn't far, but after getting off the sedan chair, Su Rui realized they weren't in Qifeng Palace. Instead, they were in a huge glasshouse. Queen Lin's companion, Youlan, stood outside the glasshouse and politely addressed Su Rui, "Concubine Su and the two young masters must have been exhausted on the journey. Your Majesty is tending to the flowers and plants inside. Concubine Su may enter."
The greenhouse was originally designed to provide shelter from wind and rain for flowers that are not in season and to maintain a suitable temperature. It only has one door and several windows. Now all the windows are closed, which means that the door guarded by Youlan is the only entrance and exit.
Since Youlan was standing here, Luo'e and Xiaoru naturally couldn't follow her in.
In the past, Su Rui might not have dared to risk his life to enter such a seemingly bad place, but now, looking at the two heavy meat balls in his hands, he did not hesitate for a moment and stepped into the greenhouse.
As soon as I entered the door, I felt the temperature rise suddenly, and I suddenly went from late autumn to summer again.
The greenhouse is full of summer flowers, all of which are brightly colored, blooming in all their splendor, in clusters and clusters, and everywhere you look is a sea of flowers.
Queen Lin was not dressed in palace clothes as usual, dignified and solemn. She only wore a moon-white brocade robe, loosely tied around her waist with a ribbon of the same color. Her long black hair was simply tied up with a white jade cup. She stood among the flowers, holding a pair of scissors, concentrating on trimming the branches. She did not look like a queen, but rather a fairy among flowers, pure and elegant.
"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen." Su Rui bowed.
Queen Lin put down the scissors in her hand, turned her head to look at her, and said helplessly: "You, no matter what I say, you really won't give up the etiquette."
"Your Majesty is the mother of the world. There are distinctions between the high and the low. I dare not slack off." Su Rui said this without leaking a single word. She was holding one in each hand. Even though each one weighed only a dozen pounds, Ke Fu's body was pressed on her hands and she couldn't stop trembling.
