Chapter 36
Even though Lu Hengtao suppressed the fact that arsenic was poured into Chu Lingyue's medicine bowl, it still spread.Upstairs in Linjiang, Murong Jing shook the wine glass in his hand and said with a playful smile, "Is she just letting that shabby settlement of the Sun family go?"

"Isn't that right? It is said that there will be no movement in the future." Sitting next to Murong Jing is the emperor's third son Li Chucheng. Today, the two met for a drink and heard rumors about the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion on the street. After that, I was a little surprised.

"You said, the daughter of the Weiyuan Marquis was bullied just like that?" Li Chucheng was a little moved. He was always cowardly, and he was more submissive, and he also knew that the feeling of being wronged was not good.

Who knows, Murong Jing sneered, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and leaned against the window lazily with a smile, "This is not Chu Lingyue's style, I think she is holding back her strength to play tricks. Well, it won't be long before Aunt Sun will suffer."

Li Chucheng couldn't believe it. He drank the wine in his glass and came over to look at Murong Jing curiously and asked, "You seem to care about Miss Chu very much. Have you ever been lynched, but last time Jing Zhaoyin told Father Huang Said that you broke other people's tendons and tongue in the dark alley. Murong Jing, you will get into trouble like this, next time..."

"Okay, I knew I shouldn't ask you out for a drink. You're always nagging like this." Murong Jing picked up a glass of wine with a half-smile and stuffed it into Li Chucheng's mouth. Blocked his nagging mouth.

Isn't it just picking up the tendons of the three people who molested Chu Lingyue last time? This is not bad.You know, molesting women in the street is at least going to be exiled, he just broke the other party's tendons.As for picking out the tongue, I just don't want them to talk nonsense, after all, my daughter's family...

Well, it's not a big deal.

Swallowing the wine in his mouth, Li Chucheng was a little helpless, "After all, it is the capital, and the emperor loves you so much, so don't be so ignorant, if one day you are bumped into by those censors, you will be annoyed to death by them .”

"It's quite annoying. Those old men are staring at you every day, as if you are afraid that you are not wrong. What's more, even if you are right, you have to find out some mistakes." Murong Jing deeply sympathized with this point, He was detained by the emperor in Zhengyang Palace to drink tea and play chess with him all day long, but that imperial censor in the palace had to jump out and say, Lord Hou, you are so unruly, and then you have to act like I will die if you don't obey. Look gesture.

Sometimes even His Majesty the Emperor is annoyed, but he can't be beaten or scolded. If you beat someone's wisdom, you will continue to find fault with him and spit blood out of your anger.

Naturally, Li Chucheng also knew that although he was in Hexiu Palace, he didn't often appear in Zhengyang Palace and Yushufang, after all, he was an adult prince and had heard of such things to some extent.Seeing that Murong Jing was not afraid of anything, but was scratched by Yu Shi angrily, Li Chucheng smiled, pointed to an old man who walked very fast in the rushing crowd below and said with a smile: "You are most afraid of It’s probably this one.”

The most famous and stubborn old man in the court, Li Zhuo, was noticed by the two of them.This old man has a stubborn temper, just straight tempered, yet he is not afraid of death.Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor of Apocalypse is not a faint king, otherwise Li Zhuo would not have sat firmly in the position of Doctor Censor for 15 years.

It's a pity that Li Chucheng was still wrong, the person Murong Jing was most afraid of was the one in Yushitai.Although this little old man is a bit straight and stubborn, he also has a playful temperament. Murong Jing often takes him out for a walk, and the two of them have a pretty good friendship in private.

"Well, let's count it as one." Murong Jing replied indifferently, lying on the window and beckoning Li Zhuo to come up for a drink, "Master Li, this Marquis has prepared pear blossom wine here, Master Li wants to come up for a drink ?”

Li Chucheng was taken aback, Murong Jing invited Li Zhuo to drink like this, was he afraid that he would not provoke them?Fortunately, Mr. Li didn't intend to drink, so he saluted the two of them from a distance downstairs and said: "Thank you, Lord Hou, for your kindness, but it's a pity that I have something important to do today, and I will come to ask for it when I am free. drink."

When Li Zhuo really left, Li Chucheng breathed a sigh of relief, and took a peevish look at Murong Jing and sat down at the table to drink.Seeing him relieved, Murong Jing smiled, "There is no rule in Tianqi's law that Lord Hou and the prince are not allowed to drink in the street, right?"

"No, but it's scary to greet you like that." Li Chucheng felt lingering fear, not because he was afraid, but because of a conditioned reflex.

Murong Jing smiled, but felt that Li Zhuo left too quickly.

Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, in Linglong Courtyard.

Chu Lingyue took a book and read it carefully under the flower stand in the yard. Mottled flower shadows fell on her body. The breeze blew by, and the petals fell gently, adding some color to those flower shadows.

Mei Xiang came over and brushed off the fallen flowers on her shoulders, then replied softly: "Miss, Mr. Du has been picked up by people from Yushitai."

"Where are Mama Du's sister-in-law and nephew?" After closing the book, Chu Lingyue stretched and asked.

"Mother Du has arranged for them to live in the miscellaneous courtyard, but there is no news from Liuliyuan." Mei Xiang said, and took out another invitation card from her arms, "When I came back just now, I passed by the concierge, and the concierge said that Meng Guogong's mother I have a birthday the day after tomorrow, and I have already sent a message to the lady."

"Oh?" Chu Lingyue glanced at it and handed it to Mei Xiang, "Let Mother Cheng do the birthday gift or something, after all, it's the old lady of Meng Guogong's mansion, so it's inappropriate not to go."

Who knows, when that day comes, Chu Lingyue would rather not come!

Early in the morning, Chu Lingyue arrived outside Meng Guogong's mansion, helped Mei Xiang's men get off the carriage, and followed the servant who led the way into the mansion.Meng Guogong's wife, Mrs. Jia, was entertaining guests. When she heard that Chu Lingyue was coming, she hurried over to greet her.

"It can be regarded as coming. The old lady asked Ling Yue if she came early in the morning. Why Ling Yue hasn't come yet. After a while, she sent someone to ask four or five times. She didn't even care about her own granddaughter."

"Ma'am, you are joking. How could the old lady not care about her own granddaughter? I must be blaming me for not coming here recently. I have to hurry up and make amends to the old lady." Chu Lingyue saluted Jia with a smile. , gently put aside the big hat that Jia Shi pushed over.

Jia didn't stop her, and let her go after telling her where she was.Arriving at the main hall where the old lady was, looking at the old lady sitting in the middle of the room, Chu Lingyue quickly saluted in a dignified manner.

"Congratulations to the old lady on her [-]th birthday, may the old lady be as blessed as the East China Sea, and live longer than Nanshan!"

After Chu Lingyue saw the ceremony, Mrs. Li, the old lady of Meng Guogong's mansion, asked someone to help Chu Lingyue up, and then held her hand and did not let go, "You child, you are sincerely teasing me by saying this today. You haven't come to see me for so long, if I hadn't celebrated my birthday today, you definitely wouldn't have come!"

"Grandmother, Ling Yue just recovered from her illness a while ago, and she was injured by an assassin recently, and she couldn't go out until she was raised for a full month. You really misunderstood her." Meng Yuzi was also happy when she saw Chu Lingyue, and explained this with a smile. It happened for a few days, and then I stood beside Li Shi to make fun of it, "Grandmother is also true, my sister and I are under your knees, you still miss Ling Yue, and your granddaughter doesn't follow."

Meng Yuzi is the first daughter of the Hou family and the elder sister of Meng Yanhe.Today is Princess Fengyang's birthday, and Meng Yuzi didn't dress as elegantly as usual, she also chose a bright goose yellow cross-neck Ru skirt to wear.Red plums are embroidered on the goose-yellow fabric, which is gorgeous but restrained.The high-combed cross bun is dotted with two samples of plum blossoms that are also proudly blooming, echoing the plum blossoms on her body.

Chu Lingyue smiled at her, and made a slight salute as a greeting.Meng Yuzi, as the daughter of the Duke of Meng's family, looks exquisite on the surface, but her heart is not like that.In her previous life, this woman actually proposed to the emperor herself for the sake of the stability of Tianqi's northern border.

But only Chu Lingyue knows that Meng Yuzi has actually been secretly in love with Tianqi since the son of Beizhi from the northern border of Tianqi came to Tianqi to propose marriage. It's really not easy.

"Go, go, don't I know you and your sister have two children? You two are half as smart as Ling Yue. If you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future. Come, come, Ling Yue, let me introduce you Individual." As he spoke, Mrs. Li pointed to a man who was talking about calligraphy and painting with Aimee Meng and said, "This is the monkey in Jingcheng Hou's mansion that I mentioned to you before, who was granted the title of Marquis two years ago. But he was so complacent that he didn't have a proper job."

Mrs. Li is the younger sister of the late emperor, who was granted the title of Princess Fengyang. She was childhood sweethearts with Mr. Meng Guogong. Later, when they grew up, they were bestowed a marriage by the emperor. .

Being called a monkey again, Murong Jing felt helpless, turned around and was about to protest when she saw Chu Lingyue standing there.

Today's Chu Lingyue seems to be a little different. She is dressed in an apricot-colored cross-collar skirt, with a little girlish beauty but without losing the dignity of a concubine's prostitute. People can't take their eyes off.

Zhang Yang at the first meeting, domineering at the second meeting, who would have expected to meet such a dignified beauty at the third meeting.

Chi, this person seems to have many faces.

"Grandmother, you don't know, Lord Jingcheng and Ling Yue know each other." Seeing the awkwardness between the two, Meng Yanhe smoothed things over, "The Donglai assassin attacked Ling Yue in the capital that day. At that time, it was Ling Yue who was rescued by Lord Jingcheng. You forgot, my mother told you about it two days ago. "

"Oh? Really!" Princess Fengyang glared at Murong Jing, "You didn't bully him, did you?"

"Grandma Huang, how dare I!" Murong Jing was a little dumbfounded, and hurriedly came over and stood beside Chu Lingyue and said, "Quickly explain to Grandma Huang, otherwise Grandma Huang will go to my father and sue me, and I will have to kneel down in the ancestral hall."
