boudoir

Chapter 284
Liu Li raised her hand and called her out, then turned her head and explained to Rui Er.After hearing this, Rui'er went down to deal with it without mentioning it.

Immediately after this, Fan Yun went back and forth to pay the money, and when it was over, it was Linglan again, and at noon Hanxue came again, although Liuli was on guard against her, but she couldn't be alarmed, Pu Yan said a few words, and then sent her back .Then in the afternoon, it was time for Qi Yunhao to come back, Liuli was about to make tea for him, when Jigeng came back.

"If you go back to grandma, the old bustard in the brothel said that you will get 200 taels of silver if you redeem Ruyi."

200 taels of silver is enough for ordinary people to spend for a long time, but it has not exceeded Liuli's budget. She called Rui'er: "Give 200 taels of silver to Ji Jiaoer and ask him to redeem Ruyi. Then send it to Hongxiu Live there, tell Hongxiu not to let the news out, I will take time to visit in these two days."

Ji Jiaoer took the money and left, Ruier followed Liuli for a long time, so she asked, "Grandma wants to give Ruyi to Second Master as a favor?"

Liuli smiled and said: "How can it be so easy? The second master is not an idler. What kind of woman has never met, and a Ruyi can satisfy him? After you clean up these people in the house, I will make up my own mind."

Just as she was talking, Qi Yunhao came back, Rui'er naturally stopped talking here, and turned around to go down to prepare dinner.Qi Yunhao didn't eat at home, Lu Zhao invited him to the West Lake Tower, and came back specially to report to Liuli.Liuli changed his clothes, tied his hair and tied the crown, and dressed him up energetically to send him out.

Qi Yunhao stroked the top of her head and said, "Sleep when I come back."

Liuli nodded: "Bring me something delicious!"

The two got bored for a while in the twilight, and then Qi Yunhao got on the horse under the eyes of Li Xing and others flying around.

After dinner, snow peas fell outside the window, making the roof slap, Liuli was embroidering flowers, while thinking about Su Shi's burial three days later. The few chapters I gave her were still under the drawer and I didn't go into them, so I asked Rui'er to light the smoker and go to the study.

With the previous experience of Mohetu, Liuli spread all three national policies under the candlelight to take care of them.Apparently, Grandpa's method of setting up the code is the same, each piece of paper has an imprint like the one on the Mohe map, and each piece of paper is different.Liuli looked at it for a while, but still couldn't see why, and after reading it several times, there was still no handwriting.

What secret could it be hiding?She picked up these articles and read them carefully, and found that they had been recited by her grandfather when she was a child. She read them several times, but found nothing.In desperation, I picked them up and looked at the light carefully, and found one thing, the left and right edges of the marks on each piece of paper were very neat, as if they had been cut by a knife. It seems that the place where the imprint is disconnected can be connected again!

Liuli's heart moved, and he immediately put together several pieces of paper, and then looked at the light. A complete auspicious cloud-shaped pattern appeared on the pieced together papers in an instant, which looked like a gold medal usually worn around the neck. Lock!
golden lock?Liuli paused, then suddenly put her hands into her neck, and took out a small pure gold lock the size of a copper coin from her collar. On the body.With a sudden thought, she held it up to the imprint on the paper and compared it. Looking at it this way, the golden lock in her hand was exactly the same as the imprint on the paper from flower shape to size!Moreover, even there is an old small gap on the upper left of the golden lock, and the upper left of the imprint on the paper has not fallen, and there is a small gap!
Could it be that the secret on paper is the golden lock she wears?This shows what?
Liuli took the golden lock and looked at it repeatedly, and there was nothing else except her birthday engraved on it.There are no concealed buttons, no interlayers, and no redundant words and patterns.The secrets hidden in these national policies obtained by He Yuli with all his efforts are the same imprint as the golden lock she wears?

Liuli glanced at the few pieces of paper again, sighed and stuffed them back into the drawer.

Maybe she still has to go to the White Horse Temple again. If she wants to crack the secret of the copper box, she still has to get it first.

Qi Yunhao didn't come back until late at night, Liuli's upper and lower eyelids were already fighting, she was struggling to get up to make him tea, but he pressed her down.

"I'm late, I'm sorry. Another accident happened in the palace." He didn't take off his cloak, so he pulled her to sit on his lap and wrapped her with the cloak.Only then did Liuli realize that his expression was not as relaxed as when he went out, and hurriedly asked: "What happened?"

"The Holy Majesty's illness has relapsed again." He brushed her forehead hair and said. "When we were in the West Lake Tower, Lu Zhao received the news, so we went to the palace. Several imperial physicians consulted, and it was not stable until just now."

Liuli nodded and sat up, "Is the Holy Majesty's illness serious?"

He frowned slightly and shook his head.

This is a major matter related to the court situation. Although he shook his head, it did not mean that the Holy Majesty's illness was not serious.If he didn't say anything, Liuli could actually understand it.The war between the Crown Prince and King Qing was imminent, and it was almost certain that as long as the Holy One fell ill and was unable to govern, there would be a desperate struggle between the two parties.Prince Qing has now won Qi Yunhao, and although the crown prince has some soldiers and horses, after all, the Holy Majesty's personal soldiers are in the hands of King Dingbei and his son. When it comes to critical moments, the queen and the East Palace have to go to King Dingbei. This line is up.

If it is said that King Dingbei was won over by the Queen, then the Qi family father and son would turn from a family feud to a political party enemy, which is a great tragedy.In fact, the soldiers and horses in the hands of King Dingbei also include the soldiers and horses in Qi Yunhao's hands. If they really want to separate into parties, then Qi Yunhao and Lu Zhao will be much weaker.At that time, it is not certain who wins and who loses.

Therefore, King Dingbei's delay in expressing his opinion not only brought pressure on the Prince's side, but also put a lot of pressure on Lu Zhao's side.This may be the headache for Qi Yunhao and the others.

Liuli touched his knit brows, and leaned against his shoulder.

"That's right." He suddenly pulled out a hand and took a paper bag from the side, "I brought you the siu mai from the imperial dining room."

When Liuli touched it, it was still warm.Looking at the snow-wet spots on his cloak, I can imagine how rushed he was all the way back.

"How long will it take you to deploy these?"

They must not only be thinking about the trend of King Dingbei, but also their own deployment. They are anxious now, but it is because they are not ready yet.

Qi Yunhao caressed the top of her head, and said: "It can be as long as a year, and as little as half a year. Before the Holy Majesty can't govern, we must do these things well. But right now, if we want to fight for half a year or a year, we still have to Somewhat difficult. Because—”

"Because of what?" Liuli looked up at him.He stared at her blankly for a moment, then suddenly looked away again, "Forget it, these are none of your business, as long as you can do your own business with peace of mind."

As he spoke, he untied the cloak and went to the closet to change.

Seeing him like this, Liuli let it go, got up and asked someone to fetch water for washing.

Although there is a mutual and frank agreement between the two, Liuli also has a sense of proportion. It is not necessary for men to explain to themselves every aspect of what they want to do, especially for such important matters, what women should avoid should be avoided.At this time, she only needs to know his general direction and what he is doing.

But I was still worried, and when I sent him out the next morning, I couldn't help telling him under the second door: "You have to be careful."

Qi Yunhao squeezed her hand, beat the horse and went out.

Went back to Rongxitang in the morning, Liuli called Bingling and said: "Go to Lanxinyuan to invite Miss Hanxue, and said that the prince came back from hunting the other day, and rewarded me with a mussel. I asked the cook to roast it, please." She came over to eat roast mussel meat."

Bingling nodded, and went out to Lanxin Garden.

Hanxue was pruning a few plum branches that she just picked. Hearing what Bingling said, her eyes flickered, and she said: "The prince treats our grandma very well. I have been here for two years, but I have never seen the prince treat her personally. What did Second Grandma reward you?"

Bingling said: "Yeah, I don't know why, but the lord is very kind to our grandma. A little while ago, the boy in front of the lord said that the river mussels that the granny sent to Rongxitang that day, the lord asked someone to hold them. Grandma said that she cooked the soup, and after drinking it, she praised how delicious it was. I think this is probably because of the good relationship between the prince and the general."

Hanxue said, put down the scissors in her hand, and said, "Is the prince on good terms with the general now?"

Bingling said: "I don't know the inside story, but the prince hasn't been looking for the general much recently, has he?" Then he smiled again, "If you want to know, you should just ask the general yourself?"

Hanxue sighed quietly, "I want to meet the general now, how can it be so easy?"

Bingling pursed her lips, lowered her head for a long time, and said, "It's actually quite easy for a girl to see the general."

Hanxue paused, looked at her for a moment, then suddenly smiled, and said: "Grandma invited me to tea, and I don't have anything to give in return. You help me hold these plums, it's a kindness."

Bingling sighed, and then picked up the plum vase together.

When they arrived at the main room, Liuli had already boiled water with a small tea stove, cut up strips of roasted mutton meat, and set out several dessert plates to wait.Hanxue took the plum vase from Bingling's hand with a smile, handed it over and put it on the note behind the tea table, and said, "I just picked it this morning, just give it as a favor, grandma, please don't dislike it."

Liuli smiled and said: "You are the only one who has this elegance. I am a common man, but I don't even know that the plum blossoms in the back garden are in bloom." Then she waved her hand under the curtain and called someone to come over and make tea.Yue Gui came out with a stack of clothes in her arms, and said to Xia Zhi: "What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you go over and make tea." Xia Zhi hurried over and picked up the small kettle on the stove.

Yuegui hugged the clothes and walked sideways, suddenly screamed and backed away two steps, in a panic she pushed, the boiling water in Xia Zhi's hands spilled out, onto her legs and feet, the pain made her tremble like chaff , Almost even fell the kettle in his hand.
