The Red Mansions Welcome Spring

The owner of the inn came out holding a bright lamp. His temples were gray, probably because he stayed in the inn all the year round. Qing Lai, the dense wrinkles on his face completely unfolded, "Haha, who do I know, it's you, this is not a day for shopping, but why did you come here and where are you going?"

Daniu took the luggage from his wife, followed him straight in, and smiled loudly at him, "Isn't it me, Lao Xu, it's hard to say what I said, let's go in first and then talk about it."

The old man walked in front, talking and laughing, "I don't have any business these days, and there are many empty houses, but you have caught up with them! Hey, be careful where you step, it's been raining a lot lately and the roads are not smooth... ..."

The lights in the inn are not bright, maybe because it is not the season for shopping, maybe because of the remoteness, there are not many guests coming and going, only a few businessmen on the road settled here, sitting in twos and threes, taking advantage of the deeper dew, They chatted over a few pots of evening tea, quarreling from time to time.

Yingchun and the others were busy on their way, and they were going upstairs to rest in a hurry. She had just stepped on the stairs when she ran into a family who had come to stay. Their clothes are neither rich nor poor, they are clean and obviously well-educated. An older man at the head seems to have had some dispute with Old Xu there, and was puzzled by Old Xu's rebuttal. His face was flushed, and the younger one didn't know what to say to that woman.

According to the rules, I had already ordered two rooms, one for Wang Daniu and his wife, and Yingchun slept alone. The house was not clean, and there was a smell of dust. She frowned and opened the window to ventilate. I came here from the pampered mansion. This wooden bed covered with straw is very uncomfortable. After lying down for a long time, I only felt a severe pain in my back and back. I turned over gently, but I heard someone talking in the next room in a daze.

"Wei Ruolan! You really don't want to miss old love!" The voice was very sad and indignant, and Yingchun, who was lying stiffly on the bed, moved her ears and rolled over, staring in surprise, based on her meager impression of the original book , Isn't this Wei Ruolan Shi Xiangyun's future short-lived husband-in-law?How come here, could it be that I heard wrong?Or the same name?Putting on a coat, she was about to see what's going on outside, when Yingchun thought about it and thought of the only result of her curiosity in her life --- she was strangled half to death and thrown on the cold windy ground, almost freezing to death, shit!After greeting all the family members of Rabbit Face in her heart, she decisively chose to stay in her own room

However, if you don’t go out, it’s okay to listen to the corner, right?

After taking a look at the structure of the house, she finally knew why she could hear the noise in the next room so clearly. The house here may be to solve the problem of load-bearing stability. The walls are not sealed. They are all vacated in a triangular shape, and even light can come out, let alone sound.

"Haoxuan, I can't help it. Your Li family has really annoyed the prince this time." A gentle voice came, with a heavy sigh, Yingchun leaned against the wall hard to hear what he was saying, lifted Seeing the faint halo on the beams, she considered whether to use a stool to test the height. To be honest, she still had a trace of curiosity about what Xiangyun's future partner would look like, okay? Well, I'm actually very curious, since she left Jia's mansion, she is like a bird out of the cage, becoming more and more unrestrained

"Mr. Wei, we are really not responsible for what happened to Concubine Nan'an, please tell the prince." The voice was very old this time, and it was basically confirmed that this was the family that had conflicts with Lao Xu when I went upstairs. Yes, but I don't know where Wei Ruolan came from?

"Li Hanlin, my lord naturally believes in you, just because General Feng presented something, and I insisted on telling you personally, so I ordered me to come to you day and night. I hope that old Hanlin will not disappoint the lord's painstaking efforts. Haoxuan and I have been classmates for many years, and the prince will deal with it fairly." Yingchun turned around and continued to eavesdrop with another ear, thinking that she had a little impression of Princess Nan'an. When she ran away, The concubine was also in the temple, so nothing happened, she was ashamed, she was only concerned with escaping and didn't seem to care about the current situation of Jia's family, I don't know if the fake corpse I made had deceived them

"Deal with justice, how to be impartial, no one in this capital knows, Feng Tang Suri has a grudge against my father, and now the concubine is burned to death in Tielan Temple for no reason, he is ordered to investigate, it is hard to guarantee that he will not use his power for personal gain, frame our Li family, Ruolan How can you and the lord listen to his one-sided words!" The agitated voice was like thunder... Yingchun covered her aching ears, relying on it, why is there such a big contrast between the voices of Haoxuan and Wei Ruolan? It's confusing!

"Haoxuan, it's just that this person has all the evidence, how do you tell us to believe you? It's not too late to go back with me and stop General Feng's mouth. He is making a big fuss about his uncle returning home now , the situation is very unfavorable to you! If it is too late, you will be exhausted!" Wei Ruolan persuaded earnestly

"Well, that's the case, I will go back with you, but Mr. Wei... I am thinking about my friendship with Gouzi, and I would like to ask you to let Gouzi's daughter-in-law go back to her hometown to visit her mother who is seriously ill..." After a period of unbearable silence , the old voice came again, with a hint of helplessness and pleading

"...Master Hanlin, don't make it difficult for me..." It seems that Wei Ruolan is determined to arrest this family. After the rustling sound, there are some metal voices, "Come on , please Li Hanlin's family go back and return!"

Seeing that the play was almost finished, Yingchun took her face away from the wall and sat back on the bed. Did Concubine Nan'an get burned to death by that fire?How could it be possible, at that time, there was no one else in the Xiaocheng building except herself and the rabbit face. After thinking about it, there was only one possibility, that is, when she met the rabbit face, Princess Nan'an had already been killed by the rabbit face. Died in the building, that's why I met the rabbit face!Well, thinking of Qin Keqing's death, she thought it was entirely possible!

"Crack!" The sound of the window bolt falling to the ground awakened Yingchun who was still in deep thought. She shuddered and turned her head quickly, only to see a pair of big eyes looking at her in the same horror. I have already recognized the identity of the person who came, it is the servant who followed the family!Why is he here!Didn't he get caught?God, Wei Ruolan, you seem to have missed one!

Therefore, without knowing the reason for his visit, Yingchun could only hold on tightly to the corner of the quilt, and sat there motionless. The child was obviously also frightened by her, his hands were tightly grasped on the window sill, and his face was pale. looking at her

"My lord, according to what the boss here told me, another servant followed them and disappeared now!" Hearing this voice, Wei Ruolan and the others had already left the room and stood in the aisle. On the blurred curtains, shaking slightly, Yingchun's heart tightened, and she looked at the kid who was still there, hesitating, and based on the thought that one thing is worse than one thing, she should kick him out without hesitation, but, Then Wei Ruolan seems to have a very close personal relationship with Baoyu, what if he met her when she didn't know?No, she escaped with great difficulty, this risk must not be taken!

Subconsciously glanced at the child who was still stubbornly hanging on the screen window, he didn't make any movement, just stood there motionless, his big cat-like eyes were shining with a faint light, he just stared at her firmly, his nostrils gently Incitement, the night in April is still a bit chilly, but his fair face is covered with fine beads of sweat, obviously more nervous than her!

"Open the door, open the door quickly! Search under the order of the governor of Gyeonggi!" There was a loud knocking sound, and the guard who knocked on the door glanced at his master standing aside, perhaps to show off in front of him, swallowed , kicked open the closed door vigorously, "Ah!" There was a scream, but it was a teenage woman who was wearing a coat and was about to get out of bed to dress up. When she saw the door being kicked open, she screamed , Wei Ruolan who was behind him didn't expect the guard to do such a thing, and hurriedly closed the door again from the outside, explaining to the girl, "Girl, don't panic, we are from the government, and we are here to arrest the criminal." Yes, I don't want to offend the girl, please forgive me!"

The only response to him was a louder whimper, "My lord...do you want to continue the investigation?" The guard who kicked the door just now felt reckless and asked with some shame. The fan smashed the guard's head hard, and cursed, "Check what, don't you think the master is not ashamed enough tonight! Forget it, it's just a servant, if it's gone, it's gone, you guys, hurry up and follow me!" Go back and report to your life!" After speaking, he flicked the corner of the moon-white robe, and strode away

It wasn't until the sound of footsteps gradually disappeared that Yingchun, who was sitting on the bed, stopped crying slowly. After listening to the movement around her, she kicked the quilt with her feet, "Hey, everyone is gone, what are you doing hiding! Come out quickly "Hoo hoo..." A figure came out from under the quilt, but it was the child from before, his face was flushed, he was clearly panting heavily, "You...why did you save me?" Why do I?Could it be for the sake of socialism that Yingchun rolled his eyes at him, or was it because she didn't want to protect herself for the time being, and would dream of his big scary eyes every night, staring at her like a ghost? !Her mental capacity is not that strong yet!

"No reason, do you have anything else to do? If you have nothing to do, go out from here and turn left, and close the door by the way, thank you! I won't send you off!" Yingchun unceremoniously snatched the quilt from him and covered it On myself, thanks to him, I was completely ruined in one night, so hurry up and catch up on sleep while there is still some time!We have to hurry tomorrow!

Silence, deathly silence...

So in such a quiet moment, someone will always explode, "...I really lost to you, well, what do you want to do?" Seeing that there was no movement for a long time, Yingchun sat up decadently, seeing that he was still standing with his head down. motionless in the corner, propping his head on his hands and asking

He raised his head slowly, as if he had made a big decision, looked at her with his piercing cat eyes, and said word by word, "..."
