ancient criminal minds

Yun's peach blossom banquet is very famous in Yanjing. The British government has a large peach grove. After Yun's marriage, he planted cherry trees in the peach grove.Every year in the first month of the lunar year, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom one after another. The pink peach petals and the white fallen cherry blossoms are like clouds formed by stacking clouds. Yun also asked her maids to hang gold and silver bells on the branches. Colorful, crisp ringtones, it makes people feel like they are in a fairyland.

This time, for the sake of her daughter Lu Wanxin, Yun's was even more attentive. Not only did all kinds of snacks have the word "peach blossom", but she even re-fired the bowls and dishes. With careful attention, it was no wonder that the invitation to the Peach Blossom Banquet was so popular that even His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who never liked to attend banquets, came here.

Yun Shi did not expect this, otherwise she would have known that the King of Chu would come, and she would not have sent invitations to Su Yiyunge and Su Yidai'er.The Su Yi brothers and sisters have been in the limelight in Yanjing City during this time. The older brother Su Yiyunge is handsome and elegant in conversation, and his knowledge of Sinology is not weaker than that of Han children who have studied since childhood. In addition, he is generous and funny, and he made friends with a lot of people. The younger sister, Su Yidaier, is because she has been chasing and intercepting Chu Wang Rongzhen during this period of time, and even Emperor Yongning still made fun of Rongzhen about this incident in the court.

The Yun family took Lu Wanxin to chat with the noble ladies. Although Lu Wanxin had been away from Beijing for many years, she was still comfortable with such communication and quickly integrated into it.

Shen Ming will take part in the imperial examination after Zheng Zheng. These days, the children of aristocratic families are not ashamed to take part in the imperial examination like in the previous dynasty. Those who are capable will be promoted through the imperial examination, such as Lu Che.So Shen Mingzheng followed his brother-in-law to communicate with some literati. At this time, the defense of men and women was not strict, and many talented women were still active after marriage, so from time to time they could hear the voice of women reciting poems.

Lu Zheng was not interested in any of these, but because he was the host, he could only bite the bullet and participate, but he was not very popular, and he didn't know a few people in the audience, let alone Han Er, who had an old grudge among them.

In the middle of the banquet, Lu Zheng used the excuse of urination, and walked slowly back to Zhuqin residence along the peach forest, but not long after, he heard a woman shouting angrily: "Rong Nineteen, you are really deceiving people too much!"

This is the second time Lu Zheng has heard this sentence, and nothing can stop his curiosity. Taking advantage of his familiarity with the terrain, Lu Zheng walked around a few trees, quietly hid behind a rockery, and passed through the rockery. hole, just to see what's going on on that side.

There stood a man and a woman facing each other. The woman's face was flushed, but she was not ashamed but angry. She was the recently famous Princess Dai'er, and the man, no need to guess, was His Royal Highness Rong Zhen.

Rong Zhen was scolded face to face, and his face darkened: "Your Highness, the king's repeated tolerance is not because of his good temper, and your identity is not your unscrupulous reliance."

Dai'er's green eyes were clouded with mist, she frowned, and a tear rolled down her cheek: "Can't I touch your heart even if I lower my status like this?" She slowly approached Rong Zhen , raised his hand to touch Rong Zhen's cheek, the wide sleeves of the robe slid down, and a white and shiny arm like fresh lotus root was exposed. It was obviously an inadvertent movement, but it exuded an extremely seductive style .

Lu Zheng hid behind the rockery, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. It's not that he has any lust, but purely from the perspective of appreciation, this Princess Dai'er is also a rare stunner.

However, in front of such a stunner, Rong Zhen was still as cold as ice, as soon as he stepped back, he avoided Dai'er's touch.And I don't know if it's Lu Zheng's illusion, but Rong Zhen seems to have glanced at the rockery.

Su Yidai looked at him in disbelief: "Are you really not tempted at all?"

"No. Please respect yourself!"

"Why?!" Dai'er's beautiful face was slightly distorted, "Which man won't be tempted when he sees me! I don't believe it!"

Rong Zhen frowned slightly: "Didn't you say that last time? People who don't like you either like men or are saints. This king is not a saint."

"You...you like men?!" Dai'er's eyes widened.

"Not only do I like it, but I already have someone who I want to be with for the rest of my life." Rong Zhen looked at the rockery where Lu Zheng was hiding, "Didn't everyone who was worried follow here? What else are you hiding?"

Dai'er looked at the rockery with disbelief, and saw Lu Zheng who was standing up awkwardly behind him.

"That... If I said that I was passing by, you probably wouldn't believe it..." Lu Zheng scratched his head, but he was crying in his heart, eavesdropping is really bad, not only was he caught straight, but also Forced to serve as a shield.He is not as innocent as that princess. The King of Chu has only met him a few times, so how could he like it? The cliff is so annoying to be chased by this princess, so he wants to use this method to get rid of her. Back then, a buddy in his dormitory used this method. This method got rid of a few girls, and some girls actually sent a wechat letter to wish them happiness after crying. Although he thought this guy was a scumbag, he also gained knowledge because of it.

But Rong Zhen strode over and stroked his hair affectionately: "Why are you shy?"

Lu Zheng was so frightened by his words that he had goosebumps all over his body, and he didn't care about his dignity at the moment, he widened his eyes and lowered his voice to threaten him: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Rong Zhen smiled and turned around: "Your Highness, I don't want to say anything else, you should give up!"

Dai'er was trembling all over, and looked at them with red eyes: "You...you..." With her poor Chinese knowledge, she really couldn't think of anything to say to the two people in front of her at this moment, and she could only cry in the end ran away.

Seeing her running away, Lu Zheng hurriedly took three or four steps back, away from Rong Zhen.

Rong Zhen turned around: "What's wrong?"

Lu Zheng coughed, and said in a very serious tone as much as possible: "Uncle Nineteen, since the princess has given up, I will leave first."

"Wait a minute." Rong Zhen looked at him with some amusement, "Am I a scourge? Don't even dare to look at me."

Lu Zheng raised his head cautiously: "Uncle Nineteen...was it a lie just now?"

"just?"

"It's you who said...I...that...that...that..." Lu Zheng scratched his head for a long time, until Rong Zhen couldn't help laughing before realizing that he was being tricked, but he was not angry at being tricked, he just felt inexplicably relieved, "It really is fake!"

But Rong Zhen asked him, "So what do you do if it's true or not?"

Lu Zheng's eyes widened: "Of course there is a difference!" He emphasized his tone to emphasize his own words, "If it's fake, I'll be a little angry at most, but what should I do afterwards? If it's true..."

"Are you afraid to avoid it like now?" Rong Zhen said, but stretched out his long arms, locking Lu Zheng between his embrace and the cherry tree behind him.

Lu Zheng's heart beat heavily, and his body unconsciously leaned back, but it happened to hit the tree trunk. All of a sudden, the cherry blossoms fell, and the pink petals were like butterflies flying all over the sky, and Rong Zhen's expression softened amidst the falling cherry blossoms. , he withdrew his awe-inspiring aura, revealing a handsome face, his brows and eyes were like ink stains, revealing a bit or two of tenderness.

Seeing his face getting closer and closer, Lu Zheng closed his eyes in fright, and after waiting for a long time there was no response, but when he opened his eyes, he saw Rong Zhen holding a petal between his fingers, looking at him with a half-smile.

Lu Zheng pushed him away with a red face, and shouted: "If you do this again, I will lose my face!"

Rong Zhen smiled slightly, not at all annoyed by being offended, and reached out to stroke his head: "Just like a child."

If it was before, Lu Zheng would most dislike other people touching his head, but because of Rong Zhen's status, he didn't dare to show it, but now he feels that something is wrong all over his body.

Rong Zhen glanced at his expression, withdrew his hand, and asked like a normal person, "What compensation do you want?"

"What?" Lu Zheng looked blank, not knowing why the topic jumped to this.

Rong Zhen said softly: "I know you are currently working in the Ministry of Punishment, but you are not from the orthodox imperial examination after all, and your future in the six departments is limited, so why not find another way, I will find you a job in Honglu Temple, how about it?"

Lu Zheng was taken aback, and hurriedly refused: "I think it's pretty good now!" Looking at Rong Zhen's expression, he emphasized again, "Really!"

"Oh?" Rong Zhen raised his eyebrows, "Forget it then."

Lu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then change it!" Rong Zhen said without any surprise, "For example, a daughter-in-law?" He lowered his voice for the last few words, and the ending sound was like a feather that gently scratched Lu Zheng's heart.

"!!" Lu Zheng took a few steps back in shock, and finally ran away.

Rong Zhen looked at the panicked back, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened a bit, but he quickly restrained himself, and said lightly, "Have you dealt with it?"

Nie Zhishu's figure appeared behind him like a ghost: "Return to the master, it has been dealt with, and the fish has been released."

"Very good." Rong Zhen nodded, "Has the news from Zhiyi not come back yet?"

Nie Zhishu shook his head: "Not yet, but in the past few days, there is another gangster who is also inquiring about the princess mansion."

As if thinking of something, Rong Zhen shook his head helplessly: "Wipe the tail for him, but don't disturb him."

"Yes." Nie Zhi responded, but hesitated to speak.

Rong Zhen seemed to sense something, turned sideways and said, "What else is there?"

"Does the master want to marry that young master?" Nie Zhishu asked bravely.

Rong Zhen was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Nie Zhishu to ask such a question, but when he saw the aggrieved look on that big man's face, he shook his head knowingly: "Next time I see Song Zhiyi, stay away from him."

"Master, forgive me." Nie Zhishu quickly knelt down.

"That's all." Rong Zhen paused, but he never uttered the denial. He lowered his head to look at the fragile petal in his palm, and held it weakly with his fingers, as if there was a flash of blood in his eyes.

"I want to have both a bear's paw and a fish, even gods and Buddhas can't stop me!"
