Daughter of the Prince of Rebirth

Chapter 222
Seeing that the time was almost up, Murong Yu carried the basket to the door, as usual, the remaining Yunpian Cake was looted by the maids...

Nanny Zhuang came over and frowned: "You guys, work first, finish your work, and then eat."

"Yes yes yes..." the maidservants and women agreed, with Yunpian cake in their mouths, they scattered around, and Nanny Zhuang also went to work.

Luyan was about to go to Songshou Hall, when passing by Yanyu Pavilion, she smelled the fragrance of Yunpian Cake, and licked her lips greedily, what smells so delicious?

There was no one in the yard, so Luyan boldly walked in, followed the scent, entered the small kitchen, took a bite of the cloud cake on the table, her eyes widened in surprise, it was delicious, she still Never had such a delicious pastry.

Looking around for no one, Lu Yan wrapped the Yunpian cake on the table as quickly as possible, stuffed it into her sleeve, and quickly left Yanyu Pavilion.

At the gate of Zhongyonghou's mansion, Xie Qingxiang was already standing there, walking back and forth anxiously: "Cousin Xiang!" Murong Yu thought he was waiting in a hurry, and walked forward quickly: "I didn't expect you to arrive so early... "

"Yu'er..." Xie Qingxiang hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickered, he pulled Murong Yu's sleeve and walked aside: "Is Lu Haowen at the house?"

After Xie Qingxiang's question, Murong Yu suddenly remembered that Lu Haowen hadn't come to the Marquis' Mansion for many days, and the servant he sent to deliver the money also came back to report that Lu Haowen was not at the residence, and Murong Yu thought he might have gone to the Prince's Mansion, so he didn't Care: "Mr. Lu hasn't come for many days, Cousin Xiang, is something wrong?"

Xie Qingxiang's eyes lit up, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "He didn't come to the Hou's mansion, so I can rest assured, Yu'er, when he comes to the Hou's mansion in the future, you'd better not let him come in again..."

"Why?" Murong Yu was puzzled, and an ominous premonition faintly rose in his heart: "Did something happen?"

Xie Qingxiang looked around and lowered his voice: "It's not just that something happened, it's a big thing, the whole capital, powerful people are looking for him..."

"Why?" Lu Haowen was just a poor scholar, even if he was valued by the prince, it wouldn't be so important.

"You still remember the rebellion three years ago. At that time, King Suijin, who led the rebellion, was killed. Naturally, the other little bosses did not dare to resist. The chaos temporarily calmed down. At that time, Qing Song was already in chaos, and lost a lot of financial and material resources. , the emperor wanted to quell this war as soon as possible, so he didn't go any further..."

Speaking of this, Xie Qingxiang lowered his voice again: "It is said that dozens of officials who rebelled with King Suijin now have a good position in the court, and Lu Haowen has a specific list of those who rebelled... ..."

"How did he get that list?" Is the news true, or is someone deliberately causing trouble?Murong Yu was shocked: "The ones looking for Lu Haowen are rebels?"

Xie Qingxiang shook his head: "I'm not very clear about the specific situation, but besides the rebels, there are also some ministers who want to make meritorious deeds who are looking for Lu Haowen. Therefore, the capital is in chaos, and it is impossible to tell which ones are The rebels, who are the ministers who are eager for quick success, if they are all killed, they will definitely arouse public anger, and maybe even force the old troops of King Suijin to rebel..."

Qing Song has just stabilized, so it is not suitable to go to war again, otherwise, the country will be in chaos and the people will be in dire straits. This is not the situation the emperor wants to see...

Murong Yu suddenly understood that Zhang Yuling and Zhang Yuqi's flattery to Lu Haowen should not only be for the sake of being an official's wife, but more likely for the list in his hand. The two concubine daughters are incapable of impressing Lu Haowen, so they can only be taken by Zhang Yufei, a noble daughter-in-law. Yes, Yushifu is really willing to place a bet, but I don't know if he took the list for credit or for destruction...

Three years ago, the death of my mother and elder brother had already shown that Zhang Yushi or Zhang Auntie should have some connection with the rebels. Zhang Yushi's motives made people suspicious...

Sending Xie Qingxiang out of the Hou's Mansion, Murong Yu was about to go back, inadvertently, he saw a young man with half of his head exposed in a corner, his eyes were fixed on the Hou's Mansion, after seeing Murong Yu, the man quickly shrank his head went back.

Murong Yu hurriedly looked in other directions. Wherever his gaze passed, figures swayed and quickly dodged. There were at least ten people. Murong Yuxue narrowed his eyes slightly: The Zhongyonghou Mansion is under surveillance!

Lu Haowen is also considered smart, he never came to the Hou's Mansion again, otherwise, he might have been arrested or killed before he entered the gate of the Hou's Mansion!

Xie Qingxiang's words are not alarmist, the matter is really serious, if it is not handled well, the capital will be in chaos!

After Lu Yan came out of Yanyu Pavilion, she didn't go to Songshou Hall, but went to a remote corner where few people go. Although she had wrapped the Yunpian Cake with something, the special charming fragrance still overflowed to the place. air.

There were so many people on the road, Luyan didn't dare to take out the Yunpian cake, fearing that others would know that she stole the Yunpian cake, and at the same time, she was unwilling to share this delicious cake with others.

After going through all kinds of hardships, Green Swallow finally came to the back garden. In the cold weather, the flowers in the garden withered early. Under normal circumstances, no one would come here. She happily opened the paper bag, and the tempting fragrance came out. Green Swallow picked it up. A piece of cloud cake, stuffed in the mouth, chewing quickly, delicious, really delicious, who made it, the craftsmanship is so good, another day, I must go to Yanyu Pavilion to find out, let her make more for myself...

"Sister Luyan, sister Luyan..." From far away, the little maid called urgently.

I hate it, I found it here, this cloud cake, I can't eat it for a while!Lu Yan secretly slandered, swallowed the cloud cake in her mouth, wrapped up the remaining cloud cake, hid it, wiped her mouth, and walked out in the direction of the voice: "What's the matter? "

The little maid smiled brightly: "Sister Luyan is here, the old lady wants to drink tea."

"Then let's go." Lu Yan adjusted her clothes, confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it, and followed the little maid to Songshou Hall.

In Songshoutang, the old lady and Aunt Zhang sat face to face, looking at the food on the table and sighing, eating the same thing every day, I have already eaten enough, the table is full of dishes, nothing can make the two of them arouse.
