Chapter 308 Kill two birds with one stone
Meng Shisan said: "Don't worry about her."

She has one thing to worry about now, and she really doesn't have the extra energy to think about the meaning of Xi Yanjuan's move. It will not hinder her whether Xi Yanjuan enters the Meng Mansion or not.

Just wait and see what happens.

The purpose of Xi Yanwen coming to Meng Mansion is actually very simple, but it is a bit hard to explain.

She stabbed Miss Meng in the back in the Beijing Yamen Hall, but Miss Meng not only did not care about her, but also spoke up and saved her from the assassins of Mrs. Qiao. Although Miss Meng frankly admitted that it was because of her brother A Jing's death Therefore, she is still grateful.

She had been to Qingbei Academy, stayed overnight at the Jinbang Inn, and asked about it.

Ah Jing was reluctant to talk to her at first and always talked about him. Later, she was so pestered that he could not return to the academy. Ah Jing confessed that he begged Miss Meng to save her. In addition to kneeling down, he also agreed to Miss Meng's request. one thing.

As for what the specific matter was, she couldn't ask again.

Princess Yanhua's flower viewing party is coming soon. She came to see Miss Meng today just to ask for permission to go with her. However, when the party came, she couldn't even get out of the carriage.

No matter how thick-skinned she is, she still has a sense of shame.

This mouth really cannot be opened.

"Go back." Xi Yanhua ordered.

Hongzao knew what his young lady was doing, so he said hesitantly: "Did the young lady really go back like this?"

"I really can't hold my head up." Xi Yanjuan thought about going to the flower viewing banquet in Prince Jing's Mansion, and she had to have the courage to go. Besides, she had other considerations, and after considering them, she inevitably had worries, "Because of Qiao Sang's death, , I was accused and went to the government office in Beijing. Although nothing happened in the end, it still gave people something to talk about. If I really opened my mouth, fortunately Miss Meng could ignore the past and agreed to me. When it comes to the lotus banquet, there are so many noble ladies, I think I probably wouldn't be able to bear it if everyone was pointing fingers at me and talking secretly. I have never attended Princess Yanhua's Four Seasons Flower Appreciation Banquet before, and this is my first time attending the banquet. I don't want to be in such an embarrassing situation. "

"Then we won't go." Hong Zao said no more, turned around and asked the driver to start back to Xi Mansion.

Lu Luo watched the Xi family's carriage go further and further away until it turned the corner and disappeared. He slowly walked out of the alley not far from the Meng Mansion.

Naishe followed behind with two horses: "Sir, if Miss Meng doesn't go out today, wouldn't you be waiting here in vain?"

"Then why don't you knock on the door?" Lu Luo answered casually.

Unexpectedly, Naishe accepted the promise, let go of the reins, and actually walked towards the gate of Meng's mansion.

He was so shocked that he quickly pulled Naishe back. Naishe looked at him doubtfully: "Didn't the young master say to knock on the door?"

"Knock on your head!" Lu Luo said angrily, "What are you going to say after knocking on the door?"

"You just said that Young Master has something to do with Miss Meng?" Naishe was thinking like this when he wanted to knock on the door. When Lu Luo asked him, he answered like this.

"what's up?"

"You promised Miss Cousin that you would help Miss Meng get the antique that Miss Shi Er snatched from the little old man. However, Miss Shi Er and Mr. Shi Wu have not left the house in recent days, so you will not find the opportunity."

What Naishe said was true. The more Lu Luo listened, the more he felt that through Jiang Ziyao, he finally got the opportunity to perform in front of Meng Shisan. Unexpectedly, he fell down and felt very unhappy.

He weakly continued: "Then what?"

"Then..." Naishe thought for a while, "How about letting Miss Meng exchange for an ancient object?"

There are many antique treasures in the young master's private treasury. If Miss Meng agrees, then the door will be opened for Miss Meng to choose one she likes. I think the young master will not be stingy.

When Lu Luo heard this, he really seriously considered the feasibility of this proposal: "What if she doesn't agree to change?"

Naishe hugged the sword and said: "Then the young master can only think of other ways." Lu Luo really wanted to spit at himself: "In front of Yao'er first, I can't boast about Haikou! Let Yao'er take it all seriously!"

The Shi Mansion is difficult to enter, and you can't get it even if you get in, so you can only do it when Shi Lanxi and Shi Yu are out.

If they didn't leave the house for ten days and a half, he would be completely helpless.

In addition, Shi Yu had just had a fight with Ding Lanyu, and I don’t know whether it was due to being scolded or punished, or for other reasons. It turned out that Shi Yu, who had been out of the house eight times every three to five days, actually stopped going out!

It really made him unable to do anything.

"Why don't you, sir, go to your cousin's place first? Just make it clear to your cousin, and then your cousin will come to the Meng Mansion to make it clear to Miss Meng. That'll be fine," Naishe said again.

Lu Luo thought about it: "How come you don't want me to get the ancient object that Shi Lanxi snatched from your hands?"

"Sir, when Concubine De's surname was given, your surname was Lu, and the Empress Dowager's surname was also Lu." Naishe said hesitantly, "But the Empress Dowager and Concubine De were never at odds with each other."

Lu Luoxiao: "I know this even if you don't tell me. If it weren't for this, I would have rejected Yao'er in person when Yao'er told me to get the ancient objects in Shi Lanxi's hands."

"What do you mean, young master?" Naishe's body was good at his physical skills, but his brain was working at times. It was working just now, but now it's not working.

"Because Rongrong is pleased with His Highness the Crown Prince, my eldest brother did not stop him. He even revealed to the empress that he had no objection. The empress specifically found an opportunity to ask me. After knowing that I and eldest brother are of the same mind, what will my eldest brother do to me?" It’s no longer as good to me as it used to be.”

"If I can take away the ancient artifact that Shi Lanxi did not hesitate to rob people's family heirlooms and gained a bad reputation in the market, then it will not only make Shi Lanxi angry, but also upset Empress Dowager De, who also likes antiques. I want to come to the empress." If you can be happy, maybe you won’t be so angry with me or my eldest brother.”

After all, Lu Luo wanted to take this opportunity to gain favor with his eldest sister, Queen Lu, and at the same time successfully perform well in front of Meng Shisan, which would kill two birds with one stone.

Unfortunately, he couldn't think of a good way for a while.

Naishe understood: "Then why did the young master come to see Miss Meng?"

"Is it true that I'm looking for her to back off?"

"Then you just said you shouldn't boast in front of your cousin?"

"I just whine."

Naishe fell silent.

Lu Luo came here with other plans. Seeing this, he took the initiative and said, "I really have something to do with Miss Meng, but it has nothing to do with antiquities."

"What's going on?" Naishe asked.

Lu Luo glanced at Naishe: "How did I notice that you were talking more and more?"

Naishe touched his nose: "Isn't that what you said, Master, to be considerate?"

"Being considerate is the same as talking too much?" Lu Luo was shocked and said in a loud voice, "I remember that you have been in good health recently, and you haven't had a fever?"

Naishe confessed helplessly: "Naiye said it."

"Do you believe what he said?" Lu Luo was amused and asked again, "Is he still squatting outside the Shi Mansion?"

"Squat." Naishe nodded.
