Chapter 7

Tang Nuan was wrapped up, her face was also covered, and she walked back to the small courtyard where she was temporarily staying. There was no one on the way. As soon as she got back, Mother Li put Tang Nuan into bed first. Lan Xi He Lan Le hurried to get dry clothes and cloth towels to help Tang Nuan wipe and change clothes, while Mama Li went to work on hot water and ginger soup.

"Young lady scared me." Lan Xi wiped Tang Nuan's hair carefully. Although Tang Nuan would have to take a bath later, she couldn't let Tang Nuan feel uncomfortable with wet hair.

Tang Nuan sat cross-legged on the bed wrapped in a quilt, and said, "I can't just watch a life being killed like this."

Lan Xi didn't know this, "Next time something like this happens, just let the servants go." Lan Le's eyes were red, and she went to pour a cup of warm water for Tang Nuan and said, "Girl warm up first." body."

Tang Nuan nodded, took a few sips of water before saying, "Just wrap your hair with a cloth."

Lan Xi responded, and asked, "Girl, how did you find out that the boy was wrong?"

"I just feel that he is in a panic, and the expression on his face is also very strange." Tang Nuan held the cup in both hands, drinking water in small sips, the water was a little hot but not scalding, "and he came from the lotus pond. Running here, he seemed to be surprised when he saw us, or he was found out after doing something bad, and his first reaction was to run back." So Tang Nuan didn't think so much at the time, and relied more on intuition. Just smashed the flower pot, and then ran towards the lotus pond. In fact, thinking about it now is a bit reckless, but at that time, she couldn't allow her to think too much.

"Third brother came at a really bad time." Tang Nuan looked at Lan Le, "I'm afraid it's time for third brother to write a letter to complain."

Lan Le explained, "The servant girl ran to look for Mama Li, and wanted Mama Li to bring more people there. Who knew that she met Ding Qi at the gate of the courtyard."

Tang Nuan let out a long and slow breath, "It's a good thing it's not the elder brother who came here." Seeing Tang Nuan's appearance, Lan Le and Lan Xi couldn't help laughing.

Compared with Tang Nuan, the rescued young man was not so comfortable. He was wearing Tang San's clothes, but it was a pity that Tang San had a slender figure, while the young man's figure was much rounder, so the clothes didn't fit well, so outside Wrapped in the cloak again, the heads of the boy and the middle-aged man were roughly bound by Ding Qi, tied with hemp rope and still on the ground.

"Thank you, I'm...cough cough Han Jing." Han Jing was not feeling well at the moment, but his etiquette was good. "My father is the king of Yong'an County. I don't know what to call my benefactor?"

Brother Tang San's face softened, not because of Han Jing's identity, but because he didn't mention Tang Nuan at all. After all, Tang Nuan was a girl, and saving lives would be a good thing if it was brought up, but Han Jing was quite smart. He directly called Tang San a benefactor, and also tacitly checked how he should say it when the time comes, "I dare not be any benefactor. My surname is Tang, with a single name of Cheng. I am the third in my family. Just call me Tang San."

"Brother Tang San." Han Jing called out, "Please inform my royal father for me."

Tang Cheng nodded, and called Ding Qi to Yong'an Palace in front of Han Jing. Han Jing pursed his lips and said, "Can I ask Brother Tang San for a favor?"

"Of course." There is a beginning and an end. Since this matter has been intervened, it can't just be done halfway. Who wants to kill Han Jing? In fact, Tang Cheng has a vague guess in his heart. Now he has offended the person who wanted to kill Han Jing. It doesn't prevent you from offending me more.

Mother Li asked the little maid to bring ginger soup, Tang Cheng advised, "You drink ginger soup first to drive away the cold."

Han Jing nodded, and slowly drank the ginger soup bowl with his hands on a cloth. He was fat but fair-skinned, and he didn't look offensive. In fact, if you observe carefully, you can find that Han Jing's facial features are good, but it's a pity that he is too fat to show it.

After the bowl of ginger soup was finished, Han Jing thanked him again, and after getting some paper and pens prepared, he lifted up the boy and the middle-aged man and remained on the ground. Tang Cheng nodded at Han Jing, and took the The person left and carefully closed the door.

Tang Cheng asked someone to guard the door, went to the wing where Tang Nuan was resting, and knocked on the door.

I heard footsteps coming from inside, and when the door opened, I saw Tang Nuan wearing a pink dress and smiling at him, her hair was half-dry so it was braided thickly, "Third brother."

Tang Nuan disappeared no matter how angry he was. Tang Cheng touched Tang Nuan's forehead lightly, and then said, "Do you feel unwell? Do you want to see a doctor?"

Tang Nuan covered her forehead with a chuckle, turned sideways to let Tang Cheng come in first, and said, "Third brother, I thought you wouldn't arrive until the day after tomorrow."

Tang Cheng looked around the room and saw that everything was in order. Tang Nuan didn't look like he was wronged, so he said, "Anyway, there's nothing wrong on the road."

Mama Li brought tea and vegetarian cakes, and poured Tang Nuan a cup of ginger soup. Then she stood aside and did not speak. Tang Nuan wrinkled her nose when she smelled the ginger soup. Mama Li had poured her a bowl just now. Now, I poured a glass for her again at this time, even if I put brown sugar, it couldn't hide the spicy taste, I just took a peek at Tang Cheng, and under Tang Cheng's silent gaze, I took a few sips of ginger soup, Only then did Tang Cheng relax a lot with satisfaction, and said, "What happened in He Mansion?"

Tang Nuan carefully talked about everything after arriving in the capital, and saw that Tang Cheng's expression became more and more calm. Tang Nuan moved her feet involuntarily. Feeling, "grandmother, third aunt... what about third uncle?"

"Except for the first day, I haven't seen each other the rest of the time." Tang Nuan thought for a while and said, "I think Second Uncle and Second Aunt are very interesting."

Tang Cheng nodded and said, "I see, they took care of you after all, what happened to Brother Zheng?"

Tang Nuan shook her head, "I'm not sure, I saw it occasionally when I was eating at my grandmother's place. Originally, my grandmother asked my second cousin to send me to Xuanci nunnery, but that morning, I suddenly said that I was not feeling well, so my grandmother asked someone in charge. sent me here."

"Okay, that's great!" The corners of Tang Cheng's mouth turned up, even showing a smile, but his eyes were full of condensation, he took a sip of tea, and then said, "Leave the matter of Chuntao and Honggui to me. Want to see what they're up to!"

Tang Nuan pinched a piece of vegetarian cake, took two mouthfuls and said, "I also asked Mama Li to inquire, but the time is too short and I haven't found anything yet."

Tang Cheng looked at Mama Li, and Mama Li said respectfully, "The old slave has arranged people to guard around He's house, just for fear that something unfavorable to the girl will be spread, but in the end our people are all faces, and the news is hard to find out. some."

"I see, leave this matter to me." Tang Cheng said, "After all, you can't let my sister suffer."

"Third brother, don't go too far." Tang Nuan reminded in a low voice, "After all, there is a mother here, even if it goes too far, don't let anyone find us."

Tang Cheng reached out and tapped Tang Nuan's forehead, and said, "Eat yours, I know."

Tang Nuan laughed, shaking her feet triumphantly, "Grandmother is an elder after all, and it's not easy for me to go out, so I will be the one who suffers if there is trouble." In fact, the worst thing He Fu did was to let Tang Nuan leave He Fu, otherwise, even if Tang Cheng wanted to do something, he would have to be scruples, and Mrs. He didn't even think about it. It was easy to let her come out, but it was difficult to let her go back.

"By the way, third brother, what happened to that man?" Tang Nuan stopped moving after eating a piece of vegetarian cake, and Tang Cheng ate the rest. He stopped her, and said that Tang Nuan is now living in Xuanci Nunnery, Tang Cheng rushed over without even entering the city gate, and was also a little hungry at this time.

Tang Cheng said, "The eldest son of Prince Yong'an."

Just briefly talked about the identity of the boy who fell into the water, Tang Nuan nodded and did not ask any more questions. The affairs of the royal relatives and relatives are very troublesome, Tang Cheng continued, "That boy is smart, just say that I rescued him." killed him."

"It should." Tang Nuan had some ginger soup left and really didn't want to drink it anymore. Tang Cheng looked at it and saw that Tang Nuan drank most of it, so he didn't say anything else. Tang Nuan sighed, "It's better for our family." The man of the Tang family Only the latter can take a concubine after thirty years, so there are not so many complicated things.

When Ding Qi came, Tang Nuan was reading the family letter brought by Tang Cheng, and smiled very happily. Seeing Ding Qi, Tang Cheng stood up and straightened his clothes, then looked at Tang Nuan and said, "I won't come over in a while. , let someone pack up your things, and I will take you to Zhuangzi tomorrow."

"Okay." Tang Nuan replied with a smile.

Tang Cheng also smiled before leaving.

King Yong'an came here in person, he was relieved after confirming that Han Jing was fine, and said angrily, "Why did you run to the nunnery when you were fine!"

"Father." Han Jing's face was pale, but his cheeks were abnormally blush, and said, "Five days later, it will be the anniversary of my mother's death. My mother loved Xuanci nunnery when she was alive..." He didn't finish the rest of the sentence, King Yong'an already understood.

Men always care about the first child, especially Han Jing is his eldest son, but as this son grows fatter and looks more clumsy, the king of Yong'an County doesn't want to see more, but even so, when he knows that he actually When he fell into the water and was murdered by others, King Yong'an was also angry. He looked at the bound man on the ground who was sober but gagged, and said sharply, "It's them two thieves! How dare they harm you? I'm going to send them to officials and cut them to pieces!"

Han Jing looked at King Yong'an with red eyes, "Father, this boy and the coachman are both from the palace." His forehead was covered with wounds, and some places on his face were also bruised. He coughed twice from time to time, looking at He was extremely weak. Seeing that County King Yong'an hadn't reacted yet, he continued, "After I captured them, I dared to have them tied up in front of my eyes, for fear that they would say something they shouldn't say."

King Yong'an was stunned, and looked at Han Jing.

Han Jing lowered his head. He thought wrong before. When he was pushed into the water, when he was kicked into the water after struggling again and again, when he thought he was going to die, Han Jing really understood that in the past he He was wrong, he thought that he would not fight, that he could live as long as he endured, "Father, I dare not ask, and I dare not let people ask, they are all from the palace, and this boy has a relationship with me." In five years, who can make them make up their minds to kill me? Even after I die, no one will know that they did it, but they came out with me, will the father let them go?"

County King Yong'an was just confused, not a fool, he also understood at this time, moved his lips but couldn't say anything.

Han Jing sighed slowly, disappointed?I won't be disappointed anymore, "Father, forget it and don't ask any more, this matter is over, just treat it as me accidentally falling into the water, my brother is so innocent and cute... Even if Father and... and... don't like it I, I..." It seemed that I couldn't continue, "Besides, Princess Ji has always been kind to me, I'm afraid it's all a misunderstanding."

Now who is going to kill him is not the most important thing, but to let King Yong'an think who it is, the thing has already happened, Han Jing only wants to get the maximum benefit from this matter, and he can't let him suffer this crime in vain .
