Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 441
Lai Shangrong didn't notice anything. When he came back from Beijing Palace, he was not in a hurry to go home, but went directly to Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

He sent Miaoyu back to Caocui'an. In addition to the inconvenience of housing without a family temple, he also had other considerations.

With Lin Daiyu's promise to welcome the Spring Festival and pay homage, if it were another woman, there would be no need to be secretive.

But when Miaoyu was confiscated for hiding the dirty silver, he swore in front of Lin Daiyu to fulfill Lin Ruhai's last wish.

Hiding someone at home now would inevitably make her doubt her original purpose.

Therefore, he sent Miaoyu back to Caocui'an.

He originally planned to go to Xiaoxiang Pavilion after settling down, but he was temporarily sent to Beijing Palace by the emperor.

When I come back now, I naturally have to explain something.

Lin Daiyu did have doubts when she heard that Miaoyu was admitted to the Cuicui Temple by Lai Shangrong, but then she heard that he didn't delay for a moment, so she didn't take it to heart.

However, when he saw Lai Shangrong, he still tried to ask: "Since brother Lai brought Miaoyu back, why didn't he go to take care of her?"

Lai Shangrong called Qu and said, "Miss, you have wronged me! A while ago, I supervised the case of King Jing's murder..."

Then, he told the story about how Miaoyu was reported by the nuns at Mani Nunnery and put into Jinyi Guard Prison.

"Now it's hard for her to go back to Mani'an. Her father's stolen money has been recovered and the case has been closed. I just put her back in the garden for Xiuyan's sake."

Lin Daiyu was originally a sharp-tongued person, but after hearing what happened to Miaoyu, she had already softened her heart.

However, he still said unkindly: "Humph! There are many stories about heroes saving beauties and promising them with their lives. Now you come to rescue her, but she doesn't mean it? Besides, who knows if you have fallen in love with her? !
Don’t even think about deceiving people with your smooth tongue..."

Speaking of this, I found that Lai Shangrong was staring at me with malicious intentions, and I couldn't help but think of what happened in the hut next to the flower garden.

Suddenly her ears turned red and she turned her head away, not daring to look at him.

Unfortunately, Lai Shangrong did not intend to let her go.

"Tsk, tsk!" He smacked his lips and said with a smile, "Others don't know how real my lips and tongue are, but don't you, my lady, also know it?"

Lin Daiyu was immediately ashamed and angry. She glanced at Xue Baoqin aside, turned her back and said angrily: "Bah! Brother Lai is becoming more and more shameless. He uses these dirty words to tease people!"

It's scary, but Xue Baoqin said doubtfully: "Sister Lin! What kind of riddle are you and Brother Lai playing? Why can't I understand?"

Lin Daiyu said angrily: "It's not easy to understand. Brother Lai is right here. Let him show you in person!"

With that said, he stomped his feet and went back to his room.

That day, Lai Shangrong disregarded his status and acted without disdain, which made her give up.

However, although the two have a marriage contract, they have not yet married.

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and Xue Baoqin lives with her, so there is no guarantee that she will find something wrong in the future.

Therefore, it is better to take advantage of today's opportunity...

Firstly, it fulfilled Xue Baoqin's wishes everywhere, and secondly, from now on, the eldest sister will not talk about the second sister.

Seeing Lin Daiyu returning to her room alone, Lai Shangrong said such words again, but he still didn't understand her intention to fulfill her.

He bent down, picked up Xue Baoqin, held him horizontally, and walked to Xue Baoqin's room on the other side.

Xie Mei said crazily: "Hehehehe! It's time to let Sister Baoqin know that you rely on your elder brother's ability to speak like a lotus flower!"

While talking, he walked into the room in three steps and then gently threw Xue Baoqin onto the quilt.

…………

"Boom!"

There was a series of rapid knocks on the east corner door of Lai's house.

Immediately, Wang Han and Ma Chao drove the tightly covered carriage into the mansion.

Youshi, who came after hearing the news, glanced at the carriage and asked in confusion: "Who are you?"

"We are under the orders of Mr. Lai to bring Princess Beijing to stay here for a while. Please call Mr. Lai to come and take her over!"

Since the Emperor ordered Princess Beijing to stay at the Lai family for a short period, he naturally couldn't hide it from the Lai family, so they didn't hide it either.

However, since the emperor ordered it, under the guise of Lai Shangrong, of course he would not tell You that he was following the emperor's order. "What!" Youshi was shocked and asked doubtfully, "Didn't the uncle say that?"

There has been a lot of turmoil in the capital recently. After all, King Beijing has been suspected of murdering the prince. Youshi is worried that there is some conspiracy.

The two were busy with Lai Shangrong, and he took advantage of all the benefits. They didn't even have time to eat dinner after being busy for three or four hours, so they didn't have the mood to break up with Youshi.

He said impatiently: "Go and invite Mr. Lai here. Things will become clear when he sees us!"

"Didn't the uncle go to the palace?"

Wang Han and Ma Chao looked at each other and asked in confusion: "Not back?"

"I must be going back to my old house. Wait a minute, I'm going to invite you!"

You Shi was still somewhat scheming. They didn't ask why Lai Shangrong entered the palace, but asked him if he didn't come back. They should know that he had entered the palace.

The identities of those two people are about to be revealed.

After arranging for the two of them to drink tea in the hall, I took out the key Lai Shangrong gave her, opened the east corner door, and walked all the way to Changcui Temple.

She remembered Lai Shangrong's instructions before he left, only when he went to Changcui Temple.

But when she arrived at Changcui Temple, she didn't see anyone, and she panicked for a while.

After leaving Changcui Nunnery, he was planning to go to Yuhuang Temple to ask Mrs. Wang for help, but when he didn't want to see him, Lai Shangrong and Lin Daiyu came over with lanterns.

In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, after a glib drama was performed, Lai Shangrong reluctantly bid farewell and left.

Not wanting to, Lin Daiyu chased him out and proposed to come and see Miaoyu together.

The heart of harming others is indispensable, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. Although she believes in Shangrong, it is difficult to guarantee that Miaoyu does not have the extravagant request of her body.

By accompanying him to visit him, Lai Shangrong would have an excuse to avoid Miaoyu from now on.

Youshi saw the two of them, and Lai Shangrong also saw him. He just thought that Youshi had come to deliver the baggage.

He quickly changed the subject and said, "Huh? Why are you here? But what's going on at home?"

Youshi on the side only thought that he was asking about sending the princess into the palace, but Lin Daiyu was beside her and didn't know where to start for a while.

He hesitated and said: "Home... there are two people at home, looking for the uncle!"

Seeing that she didn't say anything about sending original monk robes to Miaoyu, Lai Shangrong let out a sigh of relief, but the way she couldn't finish her words in front of Lin Daiyu made Lai Shangrong a little embarrassed.

"Who? There's nothing you can't say in front of Sister Lin!"

Youshi preconceived that he knew the reason. Although she didn't understand why he was so calm, she didn't try to be secretive and replied: "They said they want me to go back and take in Princess Beijing!"

"What!?" Lai Shangrong and Lin Daiyu said in unison.

Then Lai Shangrong reacted and quickly added: "But they look like two guards?"

Even if King Beijing had an unknown hobby, there was no reason to send the princess to his home. Although the specific reason was unclear, the only possibility was that it was the emperor's idea.

Lin Daiyu took a closer look and said, "Brother Lai is not related to the Prince of Beijing, so how can he bring the princess back home?"

Lai Shangrong glanced at the Cuicui Temple not far away, and said with an idea: "You also know that the marriage between Prince Beijing and the Princess was tacitly approved by His Majesty. The Zhen family is the mother of the Dowager Empress, and she was almost accused of murdering the prince in the previous episode. The case involves the princess.

But under state-owned laws, even if the emperor wanted to take care of it, it would be inconvenient for him to openly show favoritism.

Now there is another hidden danger, the emperor wants to arrange for her to come out in advance to avoid disaster.

However, I don't know where I heard that Miaoyu and Wangfei are old acquaintances, and it was for this reason that I was introduced to the palace before! "

"Then the emperor plans to let the princess live in the Cuicui Nunnery?"

What else could Lai Shangrong say, so he had to bite the bullet and acquiesce.

His statement was quite reasonable, and with the note from the emperor's bodyguard, Lin Daiyu did not doubt it.

"In this case, Brother Lai, please go back and settle down as soon as possible! I will go back first!"

She didn't know that Princess Beijing was alone. With the princess's pomp, even if Miaoyu had any idea, it would be inconvenient for her to do it in front of the princess and all the maids in the Cuicui Temple.

Lai Shangrong looked at Lin Daiyu's retreating back, and Lai Shangrong silently complained. Is the emperor trying to help him enrich his character, or is he considering the benefits he has sent?
It's just that it's easy to tell one lie, but if you want to tell a lie, you may have to make up a dozen more. I was in a hurry in front of Lin Daiyu just now. I hope the emperor doesn't have any special instructions!
