Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 442 Placement
After returning home, Lai Shangrong went to the side hall, took out a few banknotes and handed them over.

After listening to the two people's explanation of the reason, Lai Shangrong probed: "The emperor only meant to take the princess over to stay for a while, and there were no other instructions, right?"

"I didn't specifically warn you about this!"

The two of them ate some refreshments prepared by Youshi, took the banknotes, and their resentment was no longer so strong. They said casually: "King Beijing is under house arrest in the palace and cannot receive news from the outside world. You can handle it yourself!"

Hearing this explanation, Lai Shangrong breathed a long sigh of relief. This way, if he placed the person in Guancui Temple, the emperor would not punish him for being passive and sabotaging work, and Lin Daiyu could also make excuses.

This is not henpecking.

In ancient times, wives and concubines were different and had different divisions of labor. Since Lin Daiyu was chosen to be the head wife, she should be allowed to assume the corresponding responsibilities.

The man is the master of the house and the wife is the master of the house. If the head wife does not have prestige in the back house, it will be difficult to maintain the stability of the back house in the future.

Flies don't bite seamless eggs, they can only insert needles when they find a crack. The Jia family is the best negative example. If it weren't for internal strife, Lai Shangrong, no matter how good his life was and how many tricks he had, he would have nowhere to start, let alone what he is now. This works both ways.

Fortresses are often breached from the inside, which is the main reason why he chose to welcome the spring and have a second bedroom.

After seeing the two off, Lai Shangrong came to the carriage.

"Princess, it's getting late, get off the car and rest early!"

In the conscience of heaven and earth, Lai Shangrong has no immediate intention of renewing their relationship.

But Princess Beijing in the car clearly thought wrong when she heard him urging her to take a rest.

In the side hall of the palace, Lai Shangrong's crazy look suddenly came to mind, and he couldn't help but blush.

For a time, it was a dilemma.

Although I had some speculations about Lai Shangrong kidnapping him to live in the house, I also felt that this was a solution that had both ends.

But after all, he was still in the name of Princess Beijing. Since he could kidnap her to live in the house, why didn't he also ask for the divorce letter?
While she was thinking about it, Lai Shangrong outside didn't hear the sound, but was a little panicked.

While secretly regretting not handing over in front of the two guards, he hurriedly jumped onto the carriage, opened the curtain, and got into the car.

This sudden move startled Princess Beijing in the car.

In addition, she suspected that the princess in the car had an accident, and she was already a bit anxious. Princess Beijing just thought that his urging was in vain, and she was already impatient, and wanted to ignore it in the carriage.

He stood up suddenly, hurriedly shrank into a corner, covered his chest with wary hands, and squeezed everything in front of him, ready to come out.

"Don't...don't stay here...I'll go with you!"

It's not to blame for her misunderstanding. It's not something ordinary people can do to come to someone's home and threaten her to ask for a wife.

Seeing that she was safe and sound, Lai Shangrong felt relieved, nodded and jumped out of the carriage.

Princess Beijing did not dare to delay and quickly came to the carriage. Seeing Lai Shangrong raising his hand, she hesitated for a moment, fearing that he would become angry after all, so she handed over the catkins.

With the idea of ​​a quick victory, she planned to get out of the car as soon as possible to escape from the clutches of the devil, so as soon as she took Lai Shangrong's hand, she stepped out of the car.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his fingers touched Lai Shangrong's big hand, he felt as if a ball of fire was burning his fingertips. The numbness suddenly spread throughout his body, and he stumbled under the car.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Lai Shangrong opened his arms. Although he held the princess in his arms, due to the momentum and height difference, his vision went dark, and a sense of depression swept over him. He took a deep breath involuntarily.

Princess Beijing lost her center of gravity and was already in a hurry. Lai Shangrong took a deep breath and the heat wave gushed out suddenly spread throughout her body.

Instinctively, her muscle memory of being in the side hall of the palace was aroused, and she couldn't help but wrap a pair of plump long legs around Lai Shangrong's waist.

The soft jade was fragrant, and Lai Shangrong was not a moral gentleman. He held the ripe peaches in his hands and weighed the princess in his arms.

While walking arrogantly towards Huifang Garden with a step that would not recognize her relatives, she leaned into Princess Beijing's ear and blew: "Hold tighter, don't fall!" Princess Beijing was about to cry but had no tears. , but for this shameful gesture, I took the initiative. I wanted to refuse but was afraid of offending Lai Shangrong, so I had to say nothing, close my eyes tightly, and keep my eyes closed.

So dawdling, all the way to the east corner gate of the Grand View Garden.

Lai Shangrong was a little embarrassed.

He was holding the princess's ripe peach in his hands, so how could he use his free hand to take out the key in his arms?

He stopped in front of the door and hesitated for a long time, but he could only pat her butt gently.

"Ah!~" Princess Beijing closed her eyes tightly and staggered away for a long time. At this time, Lai Shangrong suddenly stopped and thought she was inside the house.

But when I opened my eyes, I found that it was still a wilderness.

Horrified: "No... no!"

Lai Shangrong said doubtfully: "If the princess is unsteady, you might as well hold me up first, and wait until I get the key and open the door, and then..."

Princess Beijing's face suddenly turned purple, and she hurriedly put down her legs wrapped around her waist, her toes touching the ground.

With shame and indignation all over his face, he said, "Stand...stand firm!"

With the suspicion in front of the carriage, Lai Shangrong was also afraid that something might go wrong with her.

While taking out the key, he comforted: "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, I'm just out of necessity. I'll take you to meet an acquaintance, and you'll live with her for the time being!"

Although Princess Beijing guessed that he was talking about Miaoyu, she was too shy to speak out after hearing what happened in the corner, and only slightly distanced herself from him.

Although Lai Shangrong is not a gentleman, and the palace can still use the excuse that it is difficult to disobey the emperor's order, now he cannot do anything that is difficult for others.

Seeing Princess Beijing pulling away from her, it was hard to go forward and hug her again.

He touched his nose and said angrily: "Since the princess is fine, let's follow her!"

The whole journey was speechless until we arrived at Cucui Temple.

Miaoyu in the nunnery was uneasy, and Youshi sent her original old clothes and came to look for someone.

Although I don't know why he was delayed, it must be just a matter of time.

Thinking of Lai Shangrong's plans, she felt ashamed, angry, and ashamed, but also had a faint expectation.

However, she has always regarded herself as a monk, but now she has not only fallen into the mortal world, but also has a sense of nostalgia for the mortal world, which makes her feel ashamed.

So, as soon as You left, she brought wooden fish and jianzhi, knelt down in front of the Buddha, confessed her depravity, and recited the Diamond Sutra silently to calm her mind.

However, as he was thinking about it, he suddenly fell into a trance, and the Jianzhi in his hand gradually became one with Lai Shangrong.

In the past, I could memorize scriptures fluently, but now I can't even memorize a coherent sentence.

While he was in a trance, he heard Baochen shout: "Master Lai!"

Suddenly he got excited and shook the Jianzhi in his hand to the ground.

But before she could put the jianzhi under the futon and put it away, she heard Baochen exclaim: "Wang...Princess!"
