Chapter 109 The Secret Meeting
Mingheng took his two followers and left from Wangchun Tower first.
When Gong Jiu, Wu Hua and Xiao Longnv got up to see them off, they were stopped by Ming Heng.
"No need to send it off, I'll turn around on the street for a while, you can do whatever you want!"
Now that they have said that, Wuhua and the others just sent them to the gate, watching the present pretending to be a playboy in front of him, it is almost winter, and they are still shaking a folding fan in their hands, When he turned his head to look around, he still had a greasy smile on his face, and he really looked like a slutty nobleman.
Gong Jiu turned her head slightly, and couldn't bear to look directly at it.
He grew up with today, Gong Jiu knows exactly what kind of temperament he is.
When he was young, Ming Heng always looked narrow and lazy.When Gong Jiu was young, when he was studying with the clan's children in the study room, because he couldn't count and didn't know the way, even though he was the emperor's nephew, he was bullied miserably.At that time, Ming Heng, because of his high status, had a Taifu to teach alone in the imperial study.
However, one day by chance, Ming Heng got up and went to the study, and happened to bump into some older people who were bullying Gong Jiu, who was only five years old at that time.The result was obvious, Ming Heng dealt with those who had been bullying him severely, and the adults of their family were severely reprimanded by the then emperor in court.Since then, Gong Jiu has been very close to this cousin who will not bully him and will stand up for him, and follows Ming Heng's ass all day long, step by step.
Since he was a child, Mingheng liked to make fun of or tease him, always making some harmless jokes, or trying every means to make him do something that made people laugh or be ridiculous.Gong Jiu was stupid at that time, and Ming Heng did whatever he said, so he did a lot of things that made him want to kill himself at that time when he thought about it now.
However, it also lost a lot of invisible benefits.For example, Ming Heng is the most trustworthy and most reassuring in the entire Ming clan is Gong Jiu.
......
Gong Jiu withdrew her gaze and looked at the little dragon girl beside her.
Xiao Longnv was a little full from eating, holding her belly, and was talking to Wuhua in a low voice, it seemed that she was talking about something happy, Xiao Longnv's perennially expressionless face put on a slight smile at this moment.
Wu Hua also has a gentle appearance, her eyes are so soft that water drips out.
Gong Jiu couldn't see the greasy look of the two of them the most. He let out a loud coughing sound, and deliberately turned his face red, making a look like he was short of breath because of coughing.
With such a loud noise, how could Wu Hua and Xiao Longnv not notice it, after more than half a year of getting along with Xiao Longnv, plus Gong Jiu's sincere love for holding her carefully in the palm of his hand.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect!Under Gong Jiu's relentless warm attack, even a rock would be smothered!
So Xiaolongnv's attitude towards him has also changed significantly. When Gong Jiu feels uncomfortable, Xiaolongnv will care about him, just like the current scene, this is already the fifth time this month.
"Brother, what's the matter, but the last time the wind and cold haven't healed yet?"
The worry on Xiao Longnu's expression was obvious, she hurried to Gong Jiu's side, held his arm, and said with concern.
Seeing that Xiaolongnu's attention was successfully attracted by him, Gong Jiu cast a smug look at Wuhua, and leaned weakly on the arm that Xiaolongnu passed over.
"Brother is fine, maybe it's because of the cold wind just now, and his throat feels a little uncomfortable! Don't worry, sister, after a while, brother will go back to the house, and you'll be fine after drinking the ginger soup!"
Wuhua is not used to Gong Jiu's posturing posture. She pretended she didn't see that look just now. Wuhua lowered her head and looked at her new pair of blue satin riding boots embroidered with auspicious clouds. He seems to be very interested in the lines on it, and has been looking at it carefully.
Gong Jiu felt that it was boring, so he called the followers around him.
"Yunfei, call the carriage over, let's go back home."
The entourage had to go immediately, and not long after, the carriage of Taiping Prince's Mansion, which was parked behind the Wangchun Tower, was driven over by the driver.
The coachman parked the carriage in front of Gong Jiu, jumped off the shaft, arranged the small stools, and stood respectfully by the side, waiting for Gong Jiu and the others to get on the carriage.
Gong Jiu helped Xiaolongnv first, and after watching her step on the stool firmly and step on the shaft of the car to get in from the car door, he jumped lightly and got into the car.
Wuhua waited for the two of them to go in before he got into the carriage and went in.
After entering, a gust of warm air hit her face, and Wu Hua felt her body stretch out after being outside for a while.
The inside of the carriage is covered with thick cushions, and there is a lot of space. There is a small table in the carriage. There is a pot of tea on the table. The spout of the tea pot is still steaming. There is a snack box next to it. Xiaolong The woman had already opened the snack box, picked up a piece of gold silk roll and was sending it to her mouth.
Wu Hua saw that Xiao Longnu, whose stomach was still distended just now, started to eat again. He shook his head and laughed, and sat down beside Xiao Longnu, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of hot tea for Xiao Longnu, melting The sweetness of the golden silk roll.
The carriage rattled along the flat avenue, very smoothly, and people sitting in it could not feel the carriage moving forward at all.
Wangchun Tower is not far from Taiping Prince's Mansion, and it would be faster to go back by carriage.
Arriving at the gate of the palace, after getting off the car, Gong Jiu said that she still had some business to deal with, so she went to the study first, so that she didn't have to wait for him to have dinner together.
After Wuhua sent Xiaolongnv back to her yard, the two nuns were already waiting at the door.Seeing Wuhua, they instinctively showed a hint of fear, and their bodies were still trembling, but as expected of people who have lived in the front and back palaces, they still suppressed their fear and walked in front of Xiaolongnv .
"Princess, you are back, go back with the old slave and change your clothes. It's freezing today, be careful if you catch a cold. Ginger soup has been warming on the stove in the small kitchen. The old slave will bring it over in a while, and the princess will drink it. Alright! Also, the Princess has not taken the medicine for today, so I will take it together later, okay?"
The two nuns hugged Xiaolongnv and walked forward while hugging her, talking.
Wuhua stood at the gate of the courtyard and didn't go in. After he saw Xiaolongnv entered the room, he turned around and left, and went back to his own courtyard.
However, after not staying in the courtyard for long, Wu Hua found a letter on the table in her room.
"Shen Shi, the box on the second floor of Wangchun Building! Waiting for you, sir!"
……
It was still early and there was no rush, so Wu Hua went to Yang Guo next door to pass the time.
Sure enough, Yang Guo was definitely not the only one there, and of course Song Tianer was also there.
These two people are sticking together inseparable every day, and they don't know if they are tired or not!
If Lu Xiaofeng knew what Wuhua was thinking at this moment, he would definitely tease him, saying that he would not see other people's young lovers together, naked/naked/nakedly jealous, the sourness in this tone is worse than that of old people Old vinegar is still sour.
It is true that Wu Hua is somewhat jealous that Yang Guo and Song Tianer can be together all the time, but it is impossible for him and Xiao Longnv to be like Yang Guo, neither he nor Xiao Longnv have such a clumsy temperament.
Seeing that there are lovers together, Wuhua can't bother her anymore, so she has to back out silently.
Anyway, he had already stepped out of the room, and he didn't want to go back, so he might as well go out directly.
Besides, this hour is also the time when Xiao Longnv is under the pressure of the nuns to study, and when she finishes her classes, it is almost time for dinner, and he should be back by then, so we can still have dinner together.
Wu Hua just went out the door neatly, because he was a guest of the palace, and Gong Jiu didn't specifically tell him to keep an eye on Wu Hua's whereabouts at all times, so the servants thought he was just going out for a stroll.
Wangchun Tower is not far away, it's still early, so it's better to look around.
Because the weather suddenly became gloomy and cloudy, it felt like a rain was about to fall.Therefore, there is no one on the street at the moment, except for those small vendors who are packing up their things.
The pedestrians who came and went also looked in a hurry, and hurried on their way with extreme impatience.
Wuhua felt that there was nothing to see on the street, and there was still half an hour before Shenshi, so it was not too early to go to Wangchunlou.
……
After arriving at Wangchun Building, Wuhua randomly found a place in the corner of the lobby and sat down.
He called the waiter in the shop and asked him to serve a pot of tea and a few dishes of dim sum.
Things came quickly, and Wu Hua poured herself a cup of steaming tea, watching the mist rise little by little until it finally disappeared.
Wuhua lowered her eyes, and the hot air from the teacup just covered up the mixed emotions in his eyes.
Who would be the person who asked him to meet here?
After thinking about it, it's just a few people, but those who can play tricks, I'm afraid it's just...
Moreover, seeing him, all he did was for those few things!
Wuhua looked at the teacup where the mist was getting thinner and thinner in front of her, stretched out her knuckle-boned and extraordinarily slender hand, picked up the cup of tea that had become cold, and slowly brought it to her mouth.
His eyes were slack and unfocused, as if he was in a daze, but the flashes of light in them from time to time showed that he was not completely in a daze.
When she just entered the door, Wuhua saw white-clothed people sitting in twos and threes in the lobby. The white clothes on them were exactly the same as the clothes worn by those people in Baiyun City that they saw in the morning, and they presumably were also from Baiyun City.However, there was no figure of Ye Gucheng!
Wu Hua quietly drank the tea in the cup, put down the cup, called the waiter again, paid the bill, and went straight upstairs.
As soon as he got up the stairs, Wu Hua was stopped by someone.
"It's a playboy!"
In front of him is a young man who looks weak and weak, like a scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken, but the calluses on his hands that stop Wuhua show that he is not such a simple person.
Wuhua nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I'm Wuhua!"
"Okay, please come with me, my lord!"
After the man got the exact answer, he walked sideways in front to lead the way for Wuhua, and turned his head to look at Wuhua from time to time in the middle of the way to make sure that he followed.
Although it was said in the letter, among the boxes in Wangchun Building, it did not specifically refer to which box.However, the person who guided Wuhua led him around for a long time, before stopping at the entrance of a small independent courtyard.
"No playboy, here it is, please come in!"
The person who led the way pushed open the courtyard door, stood by the door, made a gesture of inviting in, and said so.
After Wuhua nodded at him, she stepped in. After entering, the courtyard door behind him was slowly closed.
There are no artificial hills or the like for decoration in the courtyard. There is only a small room facing the courtyard gate, and there is nothing else.Therefore, the whole yard is empty.
Wu Hua took a few more steps forward, stood in the middle of the empty yard, and waited quietly.
After waiting for a long time, a majestic and young voice came from the door he was facing.
"come in!"
Wuhua heard the sound and moved forward, pushed the door open and entered.
Inside the door is a tall and thin figure with his hands behind his back, standing in front of a map of the Great Zhou Kingdom, silently admiring it.
After a while, he spoke again: "Sit down!"
Wu Hua had just entered the door and took a look at the scene inside the room. Except for the table beside him and the map hanging on the wall, there was nothing else in this room.
After hearing the man speak again, Wuhua lowered her head and replied respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for granting the seat, but there is no reason why the Holy Majesty is standing and the villain is sitting. The villain dare not! Look!" Your Majesty forgives sins!"
The man turned around and looked at Wuhua with a half-smile.Sure enough, this person is the present-day sage Mingheng whom I met this morning.
However, I don't know what his intentions are, to see Wu Hua in private, still in such a hidden place.
Mingheng suddenly exuded a fierce deterrent force, his eyes were heavy, he looked at Wuhua in front of him, and said: "Bold, my order, how can you and other ordinary people be able to disobey it!"
Wuhua knew that this was Ming Heng's attempt to show him off, and also to let him fully understand what imperial power really is.So he knelt down without the slightest hesitation, and immediately confessed: "The villain is guilty, the villain is guilty!"
Although he pleaded guilty, he never mentioned what guilt he was pleading guilty to.
But Wuhua knew that as long as he made any moves, or if he didn't follow the emperor's heart, the hidden masters around here would appear and strangle him here.
Having met so many people, even Wuhua is not fully sure that she will be able to walk out of this courtyard alive.
Moreover, he also wanted to know, what exactly did the emperor intend to do, was it the same as what he had guessed?
The emperor didn't let Wuhua kneel for a long time, he stepped forward, bent down, and lifted Wuhua up from the ground with his own hands, with a genuine smile on his face, as if he was different from the majestic emperor just now.
"What is the crime of Wuhua Shaoxia? I am sloppy, I am sloppy!"
