Chapter 376 Big Wedding (1)
As soon as he said this, Xiao Shao and Qi Feng were slightly stunned. After a while, Xiao Shao said lightly: "I will go to the palace tomorrow to explain this matter. The happy event should be done, the sooner the better." His eyes paused on Qi Feng and left quickly, with his expression as cold as ever.
"That's great," Xia Qing said with great enthusiasm without doubting him: "I have to think about what kind of gifts to give!"
Early the next morning, it snowed lightly in the morning. It was deep at night and almost fell into my knees. The weather was surprisingly cold, but the streets and alleys did not become cold because of the extremely cold weather. Instead, they talked enthusiastically about the fact that water had been flowing from the street in the north of the city last night. The vendors were talking a lot, and they all heard the owner say that there seemed to be a robber, but the guards in the waiting house were brave enough to go out to investigate after a long time, but there was no movement. However, the series of houses were destroyed, but the people living in a prosperous corner of the north of the city were either rich or noble, but they didn't care about the money. They just felt uneasy in their hearts and felt a little unlucky.
At the Eighth Prince's Mansion, Xuan Li held his forehead and looked a little anxious. The night attack last night had not been sent back until now, and he had never returned with the spies sent. What this means is, Xuan Li knew very well, but he had to convince himself that everything was in danger, and Xuan Li was very unwilling to accept it. He wanted to wipe out all the people sent, but at least someone from the Jinyiwei reported that Jiang Ruan was just a woman after all, could he still order the killing? Besides, the night attack that day was a sudden one, and Jiang Ruan was not fully prepared to escape.
Xuan Li was very sure of these things, but there was no news after waiting for a night. The spy sent out again could not find anything outside the Jinying Mansion. The Jinying Mansion was as solid as a rock and could not even fly in. It was even more difficult to find out the news. After returning several times, Xuan Li was even more uneasy. The matter of water flowing in the north of the city spread early this morning. This matter must be inseparable from the Jinying Mansion. Xuan Li knew that it was a way Jiang Ruan used to confuse the public, but there was no way.
Just as he was thinking, the two servants walked in with a box of things, put them in the center of the house, and said to Xuan Li: "Your Highness, Lord Zhang, I have a salute, please take a look."
It is common for the officials to send some gifts from time to time, but today Xuan Li didn't have the heart to do it. He waved his hand impatiently and said, "Open it."
The box slowly opened. Before Xuan Li could see the two servants and guards beside him gasped. Perhaps because he was afraid of disturbing him, he did not scream, but the rapid breathing still made Xuan Li frown. He turned his head and saw his body stiffened, and his eyes could no longer be removed.
The box was neatly placed with a series of human heads, and the bloody appearance made people feel confused. However, they could still vaguely identify their eyebrows and eyes. The five spies, one of them was the leader of the assassination, and the heads were placed neatly, as if they were mocking his incompetence.
Xuan Li's throat felt sweet, and he felt a sensation of depression gushing out from his chest, almost spitting out. He barely swallowed a mouthful of sweet blood in his throat. Xuan Li turned his head and stared at the two servants who were dragging the box in, "How did this thing come in?"
The two servants were already scared by the sudden incident and trembled. Hearing this, they knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Highness, please spare your life, Lord Zhang put the box at the door, and the young men took it in, that's how you took it in, your Highness, please spare your life!"
Xuan Li tried his best to hold the cup in his palm and broke in response to the sound. The porcelain bottle of the cup scratched his hand, and blood slowly overflowed from his fingers, and he seemed to be unaware of it. The guards on one side did not dare to let out a moment, just because Xuan Li's expression was very distorted at this moment, and the corners of his mouth were clearly upturned, but his muscles were shaking uncontrollably, and he was obviously angry.
It would be really not unfair to say that Xuan Li was frustrated. Originally, the Jinying Mansion was protected by Xiao Shao, so he could not find an exit. Now that Xiao Shao is not here, only Jiang Ruan can make the decision on the Jinying Mansion, he was actually trapped in the hands of a weak woman? What's going on with this head? It's obvious that he sent it over here with a decent and decisive attitude! Xuan Li seemed generous, but his heart was extremely narrow. This action almost completely evoked the dark side of his heart. Those who do such a thing are really unforgivable!
Just as he was thinking about the heavy eyes, there was another secret guard coming to report to Xuan Li. When he saw Xuan Li, he immediately reported: "Go back to Your Highness, I just got the news that King Jinying has returned to the capital."
Xuan Li's eyes were like a torch, and immediately looked at the man, his palms were unconsciously exerting force, and blood flowed down drippingly.
Two flowers bloomed, each with one branch. At this time, the young master was full of vitality. When the young master came back, everyone was very happy. Last night, everyone thought that there must be a fierce battle to fight. At the critical moment, Xiao Shao suddenly rushed back. Everyone was even more happy. Originally, after getting along this year, the servants of the Jinying Mansion liked Jiang Ruan very much. Although this young lady looked a little cold, she never made excessive demands and gave her grace to her during the holidays. Everyone had no temperament, and this young lady was easy to get along with, and she had almost no airs. Last night, Jiang Ruan showed a strong and tenacious scene in front of everyone, and her image suddenly became taller in the hearts of the servants, almost conquered people at that time. From then on, she became the well-deserved hostess in the hearts of all the servants of the Jinying Mansion, which was simply a wish.
So as soon as Xiao Shao came back, the servants consciously created all opportunities for future couples to get along.
After Jiang Ruanfang had breakfast, Luzhu walked over and said, "Miss, it's snowing outside, do you want to go and have a look?"
There is nothing to see when it snows every day. But he was stuck in the house and had nothing to do. Jiang Ruan stood up. Seeing this, Lian Qiao quickly found a fire rat-haired cloak and put it on her, and stuffed it into her hand with a small carved Ginza stove: "Be careful, don't catch a cold."
Several people walked out of the house and went to the yard. They saw someone sitting in the pavilion from afar. Lu Zhu blinked and pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, that's not my son-in-law. Girl, Is my son-in-law there? Do you want to go and have a look?"
Her voice was very high, and the people in the pavilion heard it. They turned their heads and looked here. They wanted to pretend that they didn't see it. Jiang Ruan glared at Luzhu. Luzhu touched his nose and looked at the sky. Jiang Ruan sighed and raised his skirt to walk towards the pavilion. Several maids consciously did not follow him, and stood outside the pavilion waiting from afar.
Xiao Shao sat in the pavilion. Today he wore a soapy green embroidered kirin silver pattern official uniform. The fine gold thread at the cuffs made him look more and more handsome. He was wearing a big ink cloak on his face, and his figure was tall and slender. At this moment, he didn't know what he thought of, frowned slightly, his long eyelashes drooped down, his face was elegant and beautiful, and his temperament was deserted and elegant, which was really attractive.
