Wei Baozhu looked at Princess Yuanheng and was about to speak, but Princess Yuanheng stood up and said: "I want to inform the palace about this matter immediately, so that your aunt will not come to the door and the family is still confused and has lost the ability to deal with it. Ce. Why don’t you let Laner take care of these two girls’ affairs for you? Your sisters usually have the best relationship, and she will definitely not wrong your maid.”
Wei Baozhu's hands in his sleeves couldn't help but tremble and he looked at Wei Lan'er.
Wei Lan'er raised his lips and smiled: "Second sister, you should hurry back to the table. Just now, Sister Hanzhang from Xu Xiang's family asked about you. If you don't show up for a long time, everyone will inevitably speculate."
Li Qingyi finished watching the play with satisfaction, stepped forward to hold Wei Baozhu, and advised: "Sister Baozhu, the sooner you go back, the easier it will be to refute the rumors."
Wei Baozhu gritted his teeth and looked at Wei Laner, "Then Sister Laosan will be here..."
Wei Laner smiled and said, "Second sister, don't worry."
Princess Yuanheng said: "Okay, Qingqinghaosheng will take care of the orb. I will make some arrangements and then go over."
Li Qingyi bowed slightly and resigned, leaving with Wei Baozhu.
Princess Yuanheng glanced back at Wei Laner, "Since Baozhu trusts you, you should ask these two girls for her, but one thing is, don't make any more troubles and cause gossip."
"Yes, Laner understands."
On the Yunjing stage, the food and wine had been changed. Amidst the sounds of singing and dancing, the ladies gathered together in twos and threes to talk, discussing the Lin family's early departure from Chonghua Palace.
Wei Jin'er had already started to feel restless, and she was relieved when she saw Li Qingyi coming with Wei Baozhu.
"Sister, is everything okay?"
Li Qingyi glanced at Wei Baozhu and gave her a secretive look.
Wei Jin'er knew that something really happened, so she quickly shut up and stopped asking.
But if she doesn't ask, someone will.
Xu Hanzhang, the daughter of Prime Minister Xu's Mansion, couldn't help but come over to Wei Baozhu when he saw her, "Sister Baozhu, why did you stay away from the table for so long?"
Wei Baozhu responded with a strong face, "I don't have much drinking capacity. I just lost my mind while watching the song and dance. I accidentally drank a few more glasses of fruit wine and became a little dizzy. I went back to take a nap."
"Oh? So that's it. I thought..." Xu Hanzhang covered his lips and chuckled for a moment, then said, "Your grandfather's family suddenly left Chonghua Palace and returned to the city. I wonder what happened?"
Wei Baozhu didn't dare to reveal the clues and pretended to be surprised: "Really? Are the Lin family members gone?"
"It turns out that Sister Baozhu doesn't know either." Xu Hanzhang couldn't ask anything, lost interest, and left.
Wei Baozhu breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, and asked Li Qingyi: "Sister Li, was there anything unusual at the table just before I left?"
Li Qingyi shook his head: "Jin'er and I have never left here. Not long after you left, sister Lan'er came back and said that she didn't see you coming back. Then someone at the table said that Young Master Lin could not be found. Jin'er was afraid that something would happen to you, so she hurriedly went to find the princess, and the princess took Sister Laner and me back to the courtyard to look for you..."
"How could anyone notice that Lin Yi is missing?"
This is the same thing Wei Laner asked.
Li Qingyi smiled secretly in his heart, but did not show it on his face, and said: "It is said that the eldest princess called the heir of the eldest son of the Lin family to come over to talk. Somehow... someone mentioned the second young master Lin. The second young master Lin disappeared, and everyone still I’ve been looking around for a while!”
Wei Baozhu's complexion turned pale. Could it be that it wasn't Wei Laner who had taken advantage of her, but the eldest or third bedroom of the Lin family had discovered her plan and didn't want Lin Yi to marry Wei Laner. In order to seize the title, he wanted to use her hand to eradicate Lin Yi. Yi?
Li Qingyi saw her lowering her eyes and thinking, so he stopped talking and let her guess on her own.
This Spring and Autumn style of writing is to make every sentence true, but with an implicit direction.
In fact, everyone discovered that Lin Yi was missing because the eldest princess accidentally discovered when she asked the Lin family heir that Li Qingyi deliberately explained the reason in a tortuous way in order to lead Wei Baozhu to think about other aspects.
Even if Wei Baozhu knew the cause of the matter later, he would have already preconceived the idea and had doubts about the first and third bedrooms of the Lin family.
The moon was at the zenith, and the banquet was finally over.
Li Qingyi spent a lot of time today, walking in the cave with Qin Zeng, and was really exhausted both physically and mentally.
Woad fetched water and said, "Girl, I will help you wash up."
Li Qingyi nodded and took off the hairpin ring himself.
Heng Wu laid out the quilt, came over to help her untie her bun, and said: "Second Madam Wei said that she just took over the job and was very busy, so she asked the princess to come alone with several girls. Could it be that she was deliberately trying to shirk it?" Not coming?"
"Did you also notice?" Li Qingyi took off his earrings, rubbed his ears, and said, "If the second lady comes and something happens today, she and the princess will share the blame."
Heng Wu curled his lips: "It's really her own fault. If she knew that what happened today was not Miss Wei San, but her daughter, I don't know if she would regret it or not come."
"Humph." Li Qingyi snorted, "If the second lady comes, today's matter really won't be possible. She is much more difficult to deal with than Wei Baozhu."
"Second Miss Wei is young after all. Even if her thoughts are deeper than others, her thoughts are limited. But no matter who gets into trouble, the princess will probably be blamed. After all, she brought several girls here."
"Then let's see if she's smart enough."
Li Qingyi stood up, took off his outer skirt, and sat at the table drinking tea wearing only his middle coat.
"If something happens to Wei Lan'er, she will naturally not be able to shirk it, but it is Wei Baozhu who is in trouble. She and Lin Yi are cousins. It is normal for them to be close to each other. It is understandable for the princess not to investigate for a while. If she can insist on it The Lin family has ulterior motives, so she doesn't have to bear any responsibility for this matter."
Heng Wu hesitated and said: "Does the girl want to remind the princess?"
Li Qingyi shook his head and smiled: "Why should we worry? Wei Jin'er will think of all kinds of joints and tell her."
Wei Jin'er seems to be suppressed by Wei Baozhu and Wei Lan'er from time to time, but in fact, she is the smartest one, and she would never think of something like this.
After drinking some water, Li Qingyi got on the bed and prepared to sleep.
Heng Wu and Heng Lan retreated outside to keep watch.
Li Qingyi huddled in the brocade quilt, and just as he was about to close his eyes, he saw a dark figure falling down from the beam.
She was so frightened that she gasped and almost screamed when she heard two deep words.
"it's me."
"Master Qin has been squatting on the beam?"
"how?"
Li Qingyi heard his attitude of "It's not like I haven't seen it before" and said angrily: "It's nothing. Since Mr. Qin wants to peek and eavesdrop, who can stop him?"
Qin Zeng could hear the strong resentment in her tone. He was a little confused and raised his hand to signal, "Bi Zi Tang."
Hearing this, Li Qingyi glanced at the food box in his hand under the moonlight and said, "Huh, it turns out that you are here to deliver Bazi soup."
Qin Zeng's face turned cold. Could it be that this girl was just pretending to ask him to avoid Zitang.
"Could it be that you want to give me a baby?"
Hearing his repulsive expression, Li Qingyi felt a bad breath in his heart and glared at him angrily, "Even though it's at night, adults don't have to dream casually!"
She took the food box, took out the thick soup and drank it in one gulp.
Qin Zeng's eyebrows moved slightly. He thought she was playing tricks, but she drank it happily without hesitation, which made him feel strange in his heart.
"Aren't you afraid of being poisonous?"
"If you really want me to die, why would you use such devious means?"
Qin Zeng raised his eyelids and looked at her, "Humph, I think you do have a delicate heart."
Li Qingyi lowered his eyes and said, "I think everyone has seen what happened today. If you have anything to say, just say it."
