Qi Rui Extra Episode (6)
Afraid of what would happen, A Luo prayed not to meet Mu Yingying in the Fuyun Building, but she did meet inside.
Mu Yingying saluted and said in front of the people in the hall: "My lord, thank you for what happened last time."
Qi Rui hummed and said, "It's a little effort, Miss Mu, don't worry about it."
Mu Yingying said sincerely: "It's a small effort for the lord, but it's like a gift of reinvention to me. Outsiders don't know about it, and they do it out of nothing, which damages the lord's reputation. These are all the little girls who hurt the lord."
Qi Rui felt that it was pitiful for such a good girl to be misinterpreted: "Miss Mu, my mother often told us that a few decades of life is actually very short. So don't pay too much attention to what others say, just live your own life well."
Mu Yingying smiled wryly and said: "The realm of the empress dowager is beyond the reach of my daughter." The empress dowager has a high status, so naturally she doesn't care about those gossips, but she can't.
But speaking of it, there are few people in this world who really don't care about gossip. And, some rumors are sharper than swords.
Standing next to Mu Yingying, a boy aged between eleven and twelve years old clasped his fists at Qi Rui: "My lord, you helped my sister, I want to treat my lord to a meal. I don't know if my lord can give the boy This opportunity."
"Xinrui, don't mess around." After scolding Xinrui, Mu Yingying said to Qirui apologetically: "My brother is young and ignorant, please forgive me."
Mu Xinrui was very aggrieved: "Eldest sister, the prince helped you, so I just want to treat him to a meal to express my gratitude."
Mu Yingying pressed Mu Xinrui's shoulder, and said, "If you keep messing around, I won't bring you here for dinner again."
Mu Xinrui was very wronged and couldn't help but lowered his head.
Seeing Mu Xinrui's appearance, Qi Rui couldn't help feeling soft: "You don't need to invite me, I'll invite you!" The child was so sincere that he couldn't bear to refuse.
Mu Yingying hurriedly said: "My lord, how can this be done? If there are rumors outside, if..."
The personal guard Geng Jixian slandered in his heart. It was already rumored that the prince had taken a fancy to this Mu Yingying. Wouldn't it be troublesome to eat in a restaurant now?
Thinking of this, Geng Jixian couldn't help looking at A Luo. Now, only this guy can persuade the prince. It's a pity that Ah Luo sees her nose with her eyes and her heart with her eyes.
A Luo persuaded Qi Rui that there were only two masters and servants at that time. In front of outsiders,
He will not do any Passover.
But obviously, Geng Jixian slandered earlier.
Qi Rui said to Mu Xinrui: "However, I have something to do when I go home today. In two days, I will make a reservation at the Fuyun Tower, and then I will send someone to pick you up at the Mu Mansion." Qi Rui was talking about you, not you, This means that he only invited Mu Xinrui, not Mu Yingying.
Mu Xinrui hurriedly said: "My lord, I invite you..."
Qi Rui chuckled lightly: "You use your parents for food, where did you get the money to hire me. It won't be too late to hire me after you earn money yourself."
Mu Xinrui nodded and said, "Okay."
Because Qi Rui needs four sauced elbows, it will take a little time. During the waiting time, Mu Xinrui took the opportunity to ask Qi Rui some questions: "My lord, I heard that you can lift a five-hundred-jin boulder with both hands. Is this true?"
Qi Rui smiled: "It's just a rumor. However, my eldest sister can lift a copper ball of three hundred catties with both hands." His eldest sister is a strong king.
"The eldest princess is so amazing! No wonder she can become the first female general in my dynasty!" Such a person is his idol!
Although Mu Xinrui is the son of a civil servant, he likes to practice martial arts, but unfortunately his father and sister don't agree with him practicing martial arts. So this time, he asked Qi Rui a lot about the military camp.
What happened in the military camp was something Qi Rui knew very well, so he didn't bother to tell Mu Xinrui.
After a while, Xiao Er wrapped up the four sauced elbows that Qi Rui wanted and sent them over.
Qi Rui took the sauce elbow and was ready to go home.
Mu Yingying took Mu Xinrui and sent Qirui outside the door. As a result, when she stepped over the threshold, something hit her leg, and she couldn't stand still because of the pain, and she fell forward. And in front of him was Qi Rui.
People who practice martial arts are very keen, and when they sensed something was wrong, Qi Rui quickly retreated to the guards.
Qi Rui was assassinated in the past, so he is particularly sensitive to such things. When encountering an emergency, the first reaction is to avoid the guards, and it was just a conditioned reflex just now.
Geng Jixian who was standing next to him could support Mu Yingying if he wanted to. It's a pity that he just held his long sword to watch the fun.
As a result, under the eyes of everyone, Mu Yingying fell into a shit.
The man couldn't bear to see a big beauty fall ten or nine times, but the women who came to eat in the store laughed out loud.
Mu Xinrui and Ji Lan hurried forward to help Mu Yingying up. Ji Lan said with tears in her eyes, "Girl, where did you fall?"
Mu Xinrui also said anxiously: "Sister, what's the matter with you? Sister, can you talk quickly?"
Mu Yingying has never been so embarrassed in public before: "I'm fine." When she said this, her eyes flicked to the few people around Qi Rui. Just now, someone plotted against her.
Qi Rui said blankly at this time: "It's good that I'm fine. I still have something to do at home, so let's go first."
After finishing speaking, under the watchful eyes of the two siblings, they left the Fuyun Building.
On the way back, Qi Rui asked A Luo: "Do you think the encounters between me and the girl from the Mu family these few times were coincidences or artificial?" The fall of Mu Yingying just now made Qi Rui suspicious. There is no way, not only did similar things happen to Brother Xuan too much, even he also encountered it twice.
The reason why Ah Luo won Qi Rui's trust is because he acts cautiously and never speaks falsely: "My lord, if you think it's suspicious, I'll send someone to investigate."
"Will it make a big deal out of a molehill?" It feels like a waste of manpower and material resources to check this kind of thing, but if he doesn't check it, he will have a lump in his heart.
A Luo said with a smile: "My lord, if it is a coincidence to find out, please ask the concubine to help her get rid of the entanglement of the Yang family, which can be regarded as compensation for Miss Mu for the rumors outside. We just ignored the rumors. Mu Yingying and the Yang family's matter will be resolved by herself." If these coincidences were all planned by Mu Yingying, then this girl is not a light-saving lamp. The matter of the Yang family can be resolved by herself without the help of others.
Qi Rui hummed and said: "Then let someone look it up." I hope he is thinking too much.
A Luo nodded.
Mu Yingying got into the carriage and immediately lifted up her pants, only to see a bruise the size of a walnut on her knee.
Ji Lan is not stupid, looking at the scar, it doesn't look like she fell: "Girl, what's going on?" Looking at the scar, it's clear that it was made just now.
"I've been plotted against. If I guess correctly, it should be done by someone close to the prince." This person definitely didn't want her to get close to the prince.
Ji Lan's face changed slightly: "Is it Princess Rui? Is she using this to warn the girl?" If so, then her own girl is in danger.
Mu Yingying frowned, she had the impression that Princess Rui was a grumpy and careless person. If the people around the prince listen to her, then her goal may not be achieved.
As soon as he got back to the palace, Qi Rui went to the backyard.
Geng Jixian pulled Ah Luo to a corner where no one was around, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you attack the Mu family just now?"
"Don't you think there are too many coincidences?"
Geng Jixian was more honest, he really didn't think so much. Just now he didn't agree with Qi Rui and Mu Yingying eating together because he was afraid of gossip: "So you suspect that she wants to cling to the prince?"
"Meet five times in one month, how can there be so many coincidences in this world."
Geng Jixian actually thought that Mu Yingying was a good girl, and said, "Maybe it's just such a coincidence?"
A Luo felt that Geng Jixian was just like his own prince, lacking in thoughtfulness, but fortunately his prince listened to his persuasion, "Is it a coincidence, you can find out if you don't find out."
In fact, the main reason is that Qi Rui never thought of taking a concubine, otherwise ten A Luos would not be able to persuade her.
Geng Jixian thought for a while and said, "Send Monkey to investigate!" This monkey is the younger brother of one of Geng Jixian's guards, and he got such a nickname because of his small size. His martial arts are not very good, but he is very colorful, eloquent and capable of doing things. Let him inquire about the news and get twice the result with half the effort.
A Luo also has this plan: "Prepare more money for him, let him inquire about this Mu family as much as possible."
Geng Jixian smiled and said, "Okay."
As soon as he entered the bedroom, Qi Rui saw Gao Haiqiong leaning on the soft bed with a sad face.
Seeing Qi Rui, Gao Haiqiong couldn't be happier.
Not even wearing shoes, she hurriedly ran to Qi Rui's side and said, "My lord, are you back?" She couldn't eat or sleep these two days, and she was having a very bad time.
"Well, I brought you sauced elbows." After speaking, he put four sauced elbows on the table.
Gao Haiqiong smiled happily, not because she was happy to have the sauced elbow, but because Qi Rui's anger subsided: "Last time I ate one sauced elbow and I was too full. Are you going to make me die with four?" But they were all about to laugh.
Qi Rui laughed and said: "For those who are still mothers, there are delicious food and they don't want to think about Yun Xian and they want to eat alone? No wonder Xian'er said that you are not as good as his classmate's mother."
Gao Haiqiong said nonchalantly: "You bought mine on purpose, why did you share it with him?" That kid has a big private house, so he can buy it himself if he wants to eat.
"I bought four this time, one for you and one for Yun Xian, one for Yun Ang and one for Yun Xing." Half a child eats a poor old man, and Yun Xian eats more than Gao Haiqiong. A sauced elbow, he will not be full after eating it.
Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here. Yun Xian and Yun Ang shouted loudly: "Mother, I'm back." The two brothers are studying in the same academy. Because Yun Xing is too young, he is now reciting hundreds of family names with Mr. Enlightenment!
As soon as he entered the room, Yun Xian said with bright eyes: "Father, I smelled the aroma of sauced elbows at the door." After speaking, his eyes fell on the four sauced elbows on the table.
Patting Yun Xian's outstretched little black hand away, Gao Haiqiong said, "Hurry up and wash your hands, and eat the soy elbow with your meal."
After the meal, Yun Xian stroked his chubby belly and said, "I'm full." Not only were there pork knuckles, but he also cooked a lot of his favorite dishes. If you are not careful, you eat too much.
Gao Haiqiong said to Qirui: "Why don't we go to the garden and walk around to digest food."
Qi Rui nodded.
