Jin Yi Kill - Chapter 81

Wang Yanqing took the carriage home, and Lingxi Lingluan was ready. After seeing Wang Yanqing, he immediately served her and took off Le Ji’s clothes.

Lingxi asked: “Girl, the water is ready, do you want to take a bath?”

Wang Yanqing said, “I’ll just do it myself. You guys go and get rid of the clothes first.”

Lingxi Lingluan said yes, left something to bathe indoors, and bowed to leave. Because Wang Yanqing was going to pretend to be Le Ji, she sprinkled a lot of fragrance powder on her body. She endured it all the way, and now she finally returned to her home. She quickly soaked in water and washed away the fragrance powder and the smell of the restaurant.

Wang Yanqing was immersed in the water, her hair was draped behind her casually, only her slender and graceful shoulders were exposed. In the mist, her skin was like a jade bib, and the water droplets could not hang on it at all.

Wang Yanqing splashed the water on his arm with his hand, thinking about what happened just now. It was only in the afternoon that she learned that she was going to pretend to be Le Ji, and she only had time to practice two pieces. After barely remembering how to play the qin, she was taken to the restaurant. When she went there, there was already a woman in the room. The other party was wearing Le Ji’s clothes, so she was not surprised to see her. She brought Wang Yanqing a set of clothes, and carefully explained to Wang Yanqing how to play the piano for a while, and what to do if someone asked.

The other party’s tone was calm and steady, as if he had experienced it many times. Wang Yanqing didn’t dare to think that this was Jin Yiwei’s disguise, or that he was originally a spy of Jin Yiwei.

Ruyi Building is known as the first floor of the capital. Naturally, he knows the taboos of dignitaries and their relatives, so he would not ask Le Nu to serve him at will. Especially for such a high-level guest as Marquis Wuding, the owner of Ruyi Building must be cautious and choose a woman he can trust to play music for the honored guest.

Wang Yanqing is a stranger. If the other woman is also a stranger, it will be difficult to gain the trust of the owner of Ruyi Building.

When Guo Xun and the others first entered the room, Wang Yanqing was very nervous, for fear of being called out. Fortunately, the three men were busy talking about court affairs, and no one paid attention to her behind the screen. Not long after Lu Heng came, Wang Yanqing’s heart was completely put down, and only then did he have the heart to observe the performance of the people in the room.

The piece was specially arranged, and the pipa was the main force. Wang Yanqing only needed to match the sound of the pipa in certain passages, and plucked the strings softly at other times to join in the fun. The subsequent plan also went very smoothly. Fu Tingzhou and Guo Xun left one after another, and Lu Heng was able to speak to Xia Wenjin alone. Sitting behind the treated screen, Wang Yanqing clearly saw all of Xia Wenjin’s expressions.

Lu Heng refused to change his seat after entering the box. The most important point was the seat number. Guo Xun sat on the main seat, Xia Wenjin sat on the left, Fu Tingzhou sat on the right, and Lu Heng sat on the bottom seat. The screen is located on the right side of the box, facing Xia Wenjin, and Wang Yanqing can see it clearly when he looks up. While Lu Heng and Xia Wenjin were talking, Wang Yanqing hid behind and observed quietly. Later, after Lu Heng finished the question, he made a secret conversation and sent Wang Yanqing away.

The whole process was natural, and Xia Wenjin had no doubts at all. Wang Yanqing didn’t know what happened next. After she went out, she was immediately escorted to the side door of Ruyi Building. There was already a carriage waiting for her outside. The road was cleaned up by Jin Yiwei in advance, and Wang Yanqing didn’t even knock a single stone, so he went back to Lu’s house smoothly.

Everything went surprisingly well, and none of the situations they rehearsed happened. Wang Yanqing pondered for a while in the water, and felt that the water was a little cold, so she got up with her clothes on.

Wang Yanqing was not accustomed to being served by others, so she did things like bathing and changing clothes herself. She was about to go to bed, she didn’t wear a tube top, she put on a new middle coat, tied the placket at will, and went outside to comb her hair.

Sitting in front of the vanity mirror, she carefully combed her long hair, and when she wiped her hair, she found that a box of balm was missing. Wang Yanqing habitually called out “Lingxi”, and then remembered that all the maids had been sent out by her, and she couldn’t hear her even calling Lingxi.

Wang Yanqing sighed softly, and was about to get up to look for it himself, when a voice suddenly came from behind: “What are you looking for?”

Wang Yanqing was startled when she heard the sound, she turned around quickly, and was relieved to see the figure behind her. Afterwards, Wang Yanqing reacted and quickly stood up pressing the front of his shirt: “Why are you here?”

Lu Heng blinked and said innocently, “I’ll come if I want to. Could it be that I can’t come?”

He even turned against the guest and threw the problem back to Wang Yanqing. Wang Yanqing was choked, bit her lip and said, “It’s already this hour…”

It was dark and the night was quiet. Lu Heng appeared in the woman’s boudoir, did he think it was appropriate? Lu Heng also looked out at the sky, nodded and said, “Indeed, it’s already this hour, you quickly wipe your hair, it’s time to sleep in a while. What did you call Lingxi just now?”

This kind of thing is always shameless, but shameless. Wang Yanqing had no choice but to reply: “A box of perfume. I guess Lingxi should be kept in the Duobao Pavilion.”

Lu Heng obediently went out to Duobao Pavilion to look for it. As soon as he went out, Wang Yanqing immediately pulled out a long jacket and hurriedly tied it to him. After she was dressed, Lu Heng came in as if pinching a little: “There are several kinds in the Duobao Pavilion, I don’t know which one you want, so I picked a bottle of the flavor I like the most. Can you see it? “

Wang Yanqing glanced and nodded, “Yes.”

Wang Yanqing wanted to take the hair cream, but Lu Heng refused to give it to her, saying, “You can’t wipe the hair on the back, so I’ll do it.”

Wang Yanqing quickly refused: “How can this work…”

“You change the medicine for me, and I’ll help you apply hair balm, which is considered a courtesy.” Lu Heng ignored Wang Yanqing’s refusal, held her shoulders, and pressed her to sit on the dressing stool, “It’s nothing, anyway, I’ll do it in the future. If you want to learn, you should practice in advance.”

Lu Heng’s tone was soft, but his attitude was very firm. Wang Yanqing didn’t dare to speak loudly. If a maid was called in, wouldn’t it be more embarrassing to see this scene. Before she could react, Lu Heng pressed her to her seat. Wang Yanqing sighed slightly, knowing that he couldn’t beat him, so let him go.

Lu Heng unscrewed the box, and there was a faint scent of grass and trees in the inner room. Lu Heng melted a piece of ointment with his fingers, picked up Wang Yanqing’s wet hair, and applied it meticulously.

The aroma dissipated, and the quiet smell became stronger. Lu Heng said while wiping: “When I first opened it, I felt that this smell is very suitable for your body fragrance. Now it seems that it is too elaborate, but it destroys your original fragrance.”

Wang Yanqing blushed when she heard his words. She didn’t feel any smell on her body, but she was embarrassed to ask Lu Heng how she smelled it. She pretended not to hear the words and asked, “When did you come?”

Wang Yanqing expected that he would socialize with Marquis Wuding and others, and would not come back so soon, so he went to change his clothes and take a bath. Lu Heng actually came back long ago. He heard that she was taking a bath, so he changed his clothes first, and then came to her room to wait for her. Seeing that Wang Yanqing hadn’t come out for a long time, he thought she was asleep and almost called someone in to save her.

But Lu Heng was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so he said, “It didn’t take long, you came out as soon as I came in.”

Wang Yanqing’s heart tensed after hearing this, why did he come before? Wang Yanqing bit his teeth on the inside of his lower lip, and said angrily, “Why didn’t you call me when you came?”

The clean room was built in the ear room on the back side of Wang Yanqing’s bedroom. Outside the ear room was a square corner surrounded by screens and curtains. Inside was a wardrobe box, which was a place to change clothes. There is a dressing table on the west side of the screen, and a step-by-step bed on the south side. The front of the bed is also partitioned by a landscape folding screen.

The entire bedroom space was not connected, and was divided into various functional areas by floor coverings, screens, and curtains. Just now, Lu Heng did not enter the bedroom, but was waiting in the bright hall. After Wang Yanqing came out, his vision was blocked by a partition, so he didn’t look out, so he didn’t find anyone in the room. For the same reason, Lu Heng sat outside and couldn’t see what was going on inside.

However, when Wang Yanqing thought of her changing clothes inside, Lu Heng was sitting outside and still felt that something was wrong. Lu Heng didn’t argue, and nodded politely: “Okay, I’ll pay attention next time.”

next time?

Wang Yanqing’s brows moved slightly. She didn’t think that was what she meant, but she had been told by her past experience several times that she should not try to reason with Lu Heng, he would only get more and more aggressive. Wang Yanqing pretended not to hear, Lu Heng picked up a strand of wet hair, smeared balm on it, and put it on the other side. Wang Yanqing picked up the ivory comb, slowly passed through the long hair in front of him, and asked, “Brother, why did you come back so soon?”

Lu Heng casually said, “What’s the point of drinking with a group of men?”

It is far better to go home and enjoy the beauty of the bath.

Wang Yanqing held a strand of black hair and said unexpectedly, “I see you chatting and laughing at the banquet, talking and laughing, and you can talk to everyone. I thought you had a good chat.”

“It’s boring like this.” Lu Heng said, “Who cares about their sons and grandsons, my own children haven’t gone down yet.”

When Lu Heng was there, as long as he wanted to, he would never be cold. He knows a lot of news, has a good memory and can talk, and can take care of everyone. The person being cared for was very comfortable, but it was too boring for Lu Heng.

Every sentence is calculated and thoughtful. If you can’t listen to it or say it casually, it’s better to let him be quiet for a while. Lu Heng put the balm on all the hair, took the comb and brushed Wang Yanqing’s hair, and asked, “Do you think what Xia Wenjin said today is the truth?”

Wang Yanqing thought for a while and said, “It may not be the truth, but about Xue Kan, I shouldn’t have lied.”

Ordinary people can show their emotions and anger, but for higher-level politicians, it is more difficult to judge their thoughts by their expressions. Wang Yanqing carefully recalled Xia Wenjin’s reaction tonight, and said, “When you mentioned Xue Kan confessing to him, although he quickly controlled the expression on his face, his eyebrows still rose, indicating that he was also surprised. When he falsely tested him, he pretended to be angry and excited, but his eyebrows were always smooth. The raised eyebrows showed that he was not under pressure. No pressure at all.”

Lu Heng nodded, similar to his judgment. Wang Yanqing made decisions based on Xia Wenjin’s expression, while Lu Heng made decisions based on logic. There is no need for Xia Wenjin to do such a thing. The eldest prince is still young, and there are several concubines in the harem who are pregnant. No one knows what will happen in the future. Why did Xia Wenjin jump out so early? This is more like a crime that Zhang Jinggong deliberately fabricated in order to eradicate dissidents.

Xia Wenjin may have made sure of this, so he is not afraid.

Lu Heng put Wang Yanqing’s hair neatly behind his back, held her shoulders with both hands, and leaned over to look at her in the mirror: “The emperor only asked me to investigate the matter, I have no time to control who is wrong. I can go tomorrow. Reunited with the Emperor.”

Wang Yanqing nodded, she didn’t move, and her instinct told her that this was not what Lu Heng wanted to say. Sure enough, Lu Heng paused and said, “You heard what Fu Tingzhou said today. What do you think would happen if the emperor gave him a marriage to the Marquis of Yongping?”

Wang Yanqing felt that Lu Heng’s question couldn’t be answered strangely, and she said in surprise: “That’s good, he and Marquis Wu Ding get what they need, and Miss Hong is the same family. What do you want to ask?”

There seemed to be something in Lu Heng’s eyes, which was dark and secretive, with unknown meaning. Taking a closer look, Lu Heng’s eyes were gentle and clear, staring at her gently, there was no haze. Wang Yanqing thought to herself, it might be the reflection of the bronze mirror just now, she must have read it wrong.

What does Lu Heng want to ask? He wanted to ask him if he made a plan to force Fu Tingzhou and the Hong family daughter to get married, which completely ruined the way of Wang Yanqing and her lover. When Wang Yanqing regained his memory, would he blame him? But Lu Heng thought about it, things have already been done, and if there is any meaning, even if Wang Yanqing is unwilling, will Lu Heng stop it?

Lu Heng knew that he would not. So, there is no need to ask this question.

Lu Heng looked at Wang Yanqing and smiled, reached out to caress her cheek, and looked into her eyes through the mirror: “Qingqing, what if I ask for another marriage proposal by the way?”

Wang Yanqing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that this was what he wanted to ask, no wonder he was so abnormal just now. Wang Yanqing pursed her lips and said, “But, your filial piety period has not yet passed.”

Lu Heng raised his eyebrows, not knowing whether to be happy or sad. The happy thing is that she did not refuse, but worried about keeping filial piety, but the sad thing is that he really has to keep filial piety.

The more Lu Heng thought about it, the more suffocated he became, the skin under his palms was like congealed fat, the beauty in the mirror was like jade, and he couldn’t do anything. Lu Heng couldn’t relieve his anger, he simply leaned over and bit her cheek fiercely. Wang Yanqing hid while laughing, and said, “Don’t make trouble, there is still hair cream on your face.”

Just in time, Lu Heng shifted his position and grabbed Wang Yanqing’s lips to plunder. He put one hand around Wang Yanqing’s shoulder, hugging him very tightly, it was useless for Wang Yanqing to push all parts of his body, and in the end, he was almost suffocated by the kiss.

Lu Heng also stopped panting. He leaned against her neck, and his breath hit Wang Yanqing’s ear: “Okay, you said. We will get married when the filial piety period is over.”
