Chapter 631: Call Me King Chen
Shao Yanru got up early in the morning, took the book and chess to the Buddhist temple closest to Shao Wanru, and stayed there for a long time before getting up and walking out.
This is the place where Shao Yanru was stopped by the Zhike monk in the temple. She would not be allowed to get close to Shao Wanru no matter how close she was.
As usual, she was sitting and resting in the pavilion next to the Buddhist temple, and she did not leave. During this period, she stayed here very patiently. She could see Shao Wanru's yard from a distance. If Shao Wanru's If someone comes in the yard, she will see it immediately.
Beyond that limit, the monks in the temple turned a blind eye.
In order to keep an eye on Shao Wanru more closely, Shao Yanru even had some pastries for lunch and only stayed longer.
This place is close to the courtyard of the royal Qingxiu, and ordinary people are not allowed to come here. Shao Yanru often sits there for a long time without seeing anyone else except the monks.
But today was different. Shao Yanru actually saw someone coming from a distance. He hurriedly sat up straight. When he got closer, he realized that the person surrounded by the group of people was actually the Prince of Qing County, Chu Qing. He was disappointed for a moment and lowered his head slightly, trying to pretend to watch. not see.
Unexpectedly, Chu Qing saw her and came to her pavilion with a group of people.
When he arrived at the pavilion, he waved his hand, and several waiters stood guard outside the pavilion.
"Miss Shao!" Chu Qing came in politely, smiled and saluted Shao Yanru, and Shao Yanru hurriedly stood up to respond.
"What are you doing here, Miss Shao?" Chu Qingxiao asked, and sat down on the stone bench opposite Shao Yanru very naturally. The last time when she enjoyed the scenery at Yuhui'an, the wind lifted the curtain, and Chu Qing had already seen it. Shao Yanru's appearance turned out really well.
"Fifth sister lives here, I want to meet fifth sister!" Shao Yanru sighed and said softly, and then sat down with Chu Qing's smile.
"Then why don't you go there?" Chu Qing asked in surprise.
"The monks in the temple said that the fifth sister is recuperating in Qing Dynasty and cannot be disturbed!" Looking at the Qing County King in front of him, Shao Yanru suddenly had an idea and his smile became softer and helpless. There was bitterness on his beautiful face. She was extremely sad, "Grandma was worried about Fifth Sister's health and asked me to come and take a look. But if I can't see Fifth Sister and can't personally prove that Fifth Sister is okay, how can I go back and report to Grandma!"
"So the eldest lady is waiting here?" Prince Qing said displeased, "How can the fifth lady be so rude? Since she can be a Qing cultivator, she can also be seen by others. Why do you treat her like this! It just so happens that I am going in. By the way, Would you mind passing your message to Miss Fifth?"
"So, thank you so much, Prince Qing!" Shao Yanru was overjoyed. He stood up excitedly and bowed to Prince Qing again. Chu Qing's arrival was an unexpected surprise.
As long as she passed her words to Shao Wanru, she didn't believe that Shao Wanru could not see her. It was one thing not to know that she was here. It was her fault that she knew but deliberately refused to see her. Besides, she also carried out her grandmother. , there was an order from her grandmother, but if she knew it but didn't follow it, it would be "unfilial". The word "filial piety" was too big, so she didn't believe that Shao Wanru dared to disobey it.
If you really disobey it, it's okay. This incident can make people doubt that Shao Wanru's so-called "filial piety" is all superficial, even for a living elder, let alone a dead elder!
One thing was false, and the other was false. With the help of a deliberate push, Shao Wanru's filial piety could become unreal, and his reputation could be washed away!
"Thank you, it's all a trivial matter. Then please wait here, Miss. I will come back as soon as I go!" Chu Qing really didn't think this was a big deal. He stood up and hugged Shao Da. The young lady's heart is really the best thing. He can spy on the strength of Duke Xingguo.
If I could win the heart of Miss Shao, not only would I have a beautiful woman in my arms, but I would also have the support of Duke Xingguo. It would be a rare thing.
Originally, even if he had the intention, he would not go to the door of Duke Xingguo's mansion. After all, he and Duke Xingguo were not on friendly terms. Although when they met in the court, he would smile and deal with the old fox, but the old fox was also unable to get in. He looked lukewarm and didn't know where to start. It would be great if Shao Yanru delivered it to his door.
The draft is here, and he has to plan for himself!
"Thank you so much, Prince Qing!" Shao Yanru thanked her tenderly again, and then her face was filled with anticipation. With such a beautiful woman, Chu Qing was naturally in high spirits, and led a group of people to Shao Wanru's courtyard with elegant steps. Shao Yanru was far away. watching.
Chu Qing came here today to see Chu Liuchen. He had always wanted to visit Chu Liuchen in the past, but he often went at the wrong time. Either Chu Liuchen was taking medicine or he was seeing a doctor. If he said that he had just fallen asleep and woke up due to inconvenience, until now He has been to Prince Chen's Mansion several times, but he has been rejected every time, and the reasons are very good.
This made Chu Qing feel aggrieved and angry.
Later, he thought about following Chu Liuchen back to the court. Unexpectedly, Chu Liuchen gently said that he would go to the Queen Mother's palace to take medicine. He didn't dare to go into the palace casually to see the Queen Mother, so the plan failed.
It was not easy to find out that Chu Liuchen came to Huaguang Temple to do some spiritual cultivation this time. It was late yesterday, so he got up early this morning sincerely and brought a group of people to visit Chu Liuchen.
The monk Zhike brought him here, and went to Chu Liuchen's courtyard to meet him. When he reached the gate of the courtyard, Chu Qing waved to the monk Zhike, and the monk Zhike clasped his hands and retreated.
When Chu Qing learned that the guest monk had left, he turned around and headed to the courtyard next to him. Shao Yanru had just made it clear to him that the courtyard next to him was Shao Wanru Qingxiu's courtyard.
When he got to the door, Chu Qing asked the servant to knock on the door with his hands behind his back, but no matter how hard he knocked, the door was tightly closed and would not open.
In the house, Shao Wanru had already gotten up, walked to the window and looked at the loud knocking on the courtyard door. Her long eyelashes fluttered twice. She had already known that the person outside was Chu Qing, Prince of Qing County. Just now Qing'er had said to her I saw Chu Qing and Shao Yanru talking and laughing in the pavilion in the distance, looking very close.
Of course, Qing'er also told Shao Wanru that Chu Liuchen had his own way of dealing with this matter and just let her have a good rest inside and not pay attention to things outside!
"Come here, climb over the wall and open the door!" Seeing that the door remained closed, as if no one was inside, and no one even asked, Chu Qing became unhappy. The beauty in the distance was still looking at the courtyard door. Not opening it all the time is really a slap in the face.
"Yes!" A guard took two steps forward and jumped onto the wall. Just as he was about to jump into the courtyard, he suddenly saw a guard appearing on the wall next to him. He pointed his long sword in his hand and stabbed the guard of Prince Qing's Palace in the chest.
The guards of Prince Qingqun's Mansion also reacted quickly. They hurriedly turned over and jumped off the wall, pulling out the long sword in their hands. The guards who appeared later on the wall also jumped down, and the two of them fought together.
When the guards around Chu Qing saw something bad, they all drew their swords. Some stood in front of Chu Qing, and some also joined the battle group. The fight was lively for a while.
Even though the guard who jumped down from behind was very skilled, he couldn't stand the crowd. After being stabbed several times, he fell to the ground and was captured.
"Who are you? Why did you assassinate this king?" Chu Qing was surrounded by several guards and came to the guard who was being held in custody. He said with an evil look.
"Assassination of you? King Qingqun is really proud of himself. With so many guards against one of my king's guards, it is useless to try to climb over the wall. Huaguang Temple is not Yuhui Temple, and you will not be allowed to be presumptuous!" A cold voice came from the side. came, suppressing Chu Qing's voice.
Chu Qing looked back anxiously, only to see that the courtyard door on the side was wide open, and Chu Liuchen appeared there with a group of guards, his handsome face looking cold.
"I...brother, I'm not..." Chu Qing secretly thought something bad and hurriedly explained.
"Call me King Chen!" Chu Liuchen sneered and walked over slowly, the corners of his lips slightly curved, and a sinister aura that made several guards following Chu Qing take a step back.
"Prince Chen, I have something to do with Miss Shao Wu. I didn't mean to offend, and I didn't know that this guard was from Prince Chen!" Chu Qing did not dare to argue, and waved his guard to retreat, explaining.
"Looking for Miss Shao Wu? Why doesn't this king know that you are related to Miss Shao Wu?" Chu Liuchen said coldly, his eyes swept across Chu Qing with disdain, then turned around and glanced contemptuously at the pavilion in the distance. Shao Yanru said, "Is it the eldest lady from the Xingguo Duke's mansion who asked you to come?"
"Yes, it was Miss Shao who asked me to send a message to Miss Shao Wu!" Chu Qing said angrily, clenching his fist vigorously. He didn't have the strength to challenge Chu Liuchen yet, and he even You have to please Chu Liuchen.
This feeling is very unwilling. He is also the heir of the late emperor. Why should he be inferior to Chu Liuchen? My body is much better than Chu Liuchen's. It's not a disease. In terms of it, I am more reasonable!
"What is the relationship between Prince Qing and Miss Shao? They actually made an appointment here early, and then Prince Qing came to disturb my cousin. My aunt once told me to take good care of my cousin, but we can't let those who don't The long-eyed one bumped into my cousin, and sure enough, I’ve only been here for a day and we met her!”
Chu Liuchen stared at Chu Qing's face sinisterly. The feeling as if he was being targeted by a ghost made Chu Qing take an uncomfortable step back. When he realized it, he was furious. Why should Chu Liuchen scare him away?
"Prince Chen, the eldest young lady and the fifth young lady are sisters. It's not a big deal to help spread the word if something happens!" Chu Qing suppressed the jealousy in her heart and said with a smile. She clenched her hands tightly into fists at the bottom of her sleeves. Others It’s okay to look down on yourself, but such a precarious sick man actually looks down on himself, and even forces him to retreat with alarming momentum. How can he not be angry!
"In order to please the beauty, Prince Qing naturally doesn't think it is a big deal. He is even willing to violate the rule of the world and go against the will of God and filial piety for the sake of the beauty. He also wants to disturb his cousin Qingxiu. I wonder what it is about An? It really is. The most beautiful woman in the capital is really charming. I am here to wish the prince and princess that all your wishes will come true!"
After Chu Liuchen finished speaking, he turned around and entered the courtyard with the others. He actually ignored Chu Qing and left him here to dry!
