MTL - Jade Without Fragrance-Chapter 237 Reserve

   Chapter 237 Reserve

   Someone from the palace picked up the second girl, Kou Wan, while Princess Yi'an remained in the Hou's Mansion, which caused quite a stir in the mighty Hou's Mansion.

   Although the eldest girl has the title of princess, she has no actual fief. Once she falls out of favor, this princess is not really interesting.

  The attitude of the Weiwuhou Mansion towards the two girls has changed since that day.

   Lin Hao didn't know Kou Wan's experience after returning to the mansion.

  Although it is early autumn, the heat has not subsided, the sun without the clouds scorching the streets recklessly, and the strong fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus wafting from both sides makes people feel even hotter.

  Lin Hao looked up at the pale empty sky and sighed silently.

   You should hold an umbrella for shade.

   She walked to the side of the road and stepped under the shade of a tree, suddenly feeling that something was wrong.

   "Girl?" Seeing Lin Hao stop, Baozhu followed her gaze.

   A young man stood under the osmanthus tree nearby. He looked a little embarrassed, and his eyes were as dark as a deep pool surging with undercurrents.

  Du Qing?

  Lin Hao raised his eyebrows.

   Baozhu immediately stood in front of Lin Hao and looked at Du Qing vigilantly.

   "I have something to ask you." Du Qing looked past Baozhu and stared at Lin Hao, his voice hoarse and rapid.

   Compared with Baozhu's nervousness, Lin Hao calmed down: "Here?"

   "Is there a convenient place to speak?"

  Lin Hao thought for a while: "How about the teahouse not far from the General's Mansion?"

  Du Qing nodded quickly: "Okay, let's go separately."

  Lin Hao gave Du Qing a deep look.

   Being so cautious, it seems that Du Qing has experienced a lot after leaving Jinlinwei.

   She went to the private room of the tea house to wait, and Du Qing pushed the door in not long after.

   "Sit down." Lin Hao pointed to the opposite side.

  Du Qing sat down and looked at Lin Hao with puzzled eyes: "Aren't you afraid that I will trouble you?"

  Lin Hao poured a cup of tea and handed it over, swept his eyes like water at him: "You are already like this, can you still trouble me?"

  Du Qing was stagnant.

   "What are you looking for from me?" Lin Hao asked calmly.

  Du Qing squeezed the teacup and asked, "Is the person who impersonated me in your hands?"

   Lin Hao tilted his head slightly: "This has nothing to do with you, right?"

   Anger flashed in Du Qing's eyes, and his low voice became a little higher: "It doesn't matter? Do you know what happened to me after leaving Jinlinwei?"

  Lin Hao put away his indifference, holding the tea cup and pretending to listen to the story seriously: "Ah, tell me."

  Du Qingmo took a breath to suppress his anger.

   He was so stupid that he was so grateful to this girl when he left Jinlinwei!

  God knows how he got here during this time.

   Chen Mu's side is just fine, but his own eyes are full of suspicion when he looks at him. After the deadlock, both sides want his life to avoid future troubles. When he regained his freedom, not only could he do nothing, but he was caught in a never-ending hunt.

   "I just want to know what happened to the person who impersonated me."

"It's not hard to guess, it's just to cover your friend. Your friend hides in the house and doesn't go out. He buys supplies in your identity to ensure his life." Lin Hao took the opportunity to ask, "Your friend What is your name?"

   Of course she knew what it was called, but she couldn't explain how she knew it.

  Du Qing was silent.

   "Can't you tell? But he's already in Jinlinwei Prison. Knowing a name doesn't really make any sense, right? Then I'll still call it 'your friend'—"

   "Chen Mu, his name is Chen Mu."

"how about you?"

   Looking at the girl's smiling face, Du Qing was silent for a moment and said, "My name is Du Qing."

When    said his name, he was in a completely broken mood.

  This girl knew about his relationship with Chen Mu, and knew that he was on the side of Emperor Pingle, so it really doesn't make sense to hide a name.

and many more!

  Du Qing's heart froze, thinking of a question: This girl is close to her husband, does she know the identity of her husband?

   The murderous intent flashed by, but was caught by Lin Hao.

   "Then Du Qing, do you have anything else to ask?" She seemed unaware, her tone relaxed.

  Du Qing suppressed the anger in his heart.

   Thinking about it carefully, he never showed up when this girl was dealing with her husband, so it is impossible to know his relationship with her husband.

The moment    convinced himself, his eyes returned to dullness: "No more."

   Instead, Lin Hao took out the scroll from his sleeve and unfolded it bit by bit: "Have you seen this person?"

  Du Qing glanced at Lin Hao, his eyes became strange: "Who can recognize this?"

   "It's the mask he gave." Lin Hao didn't have any hope at all, and he rolled up the portrait again as he spoke.

   didn't respond for a while, she looked up and said, "what's the matter?"

  Du Qing was silent.

   He just wondered why this girl was so familiar with her, but she had no intention of guarding against him despite her hostile stance.

   This is stupid, right?

   He suddenly thought of what Lin Hao said that day that he wanted to let him go. At that time, he thought it was stupid, but then he really let him go. Later, he was hunted by two parties and had no identity to live in the inn, and he became a bereaved dog——

   As if the fool was him...

   "Don't bother." Du Qing put down the teacup and got up to leave.

   Lin Hao called Baozhu and whispered a few words.

   Baozhu chased out: "Wait a minute."

  Du Qing stopped and looked suspiciously at the little girl who was chasing after him.

   "Our girl gave you this." Baozhu put a purse into Du Qing's hand.

  Du Qing didn't react for a while, and subconsciously refused: "No need."

   "Take it, our girl has rescued a lot of beggars, and you are not missing." Baozhu waved her hand, turned around and ran back to the teahouse.

  Du Qing slowly looked down at the purse in his hand, with only two words left in his mind: begging—er!

   At that moment, he even thought of chasing in and scolding people regardless of the spy's decency, and finally let it go after smelling the stinky smell on his body.

  Lin Hao watched Du Qing walk away from the open window, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the tight back was a little menacing.

   "Did he accept it?"

   "Well, I was embarrassed to accept it at first, but the maid comforted him and said that you helped a lot of beggars, and there was no shortage of him, so he accepted it."

  Lin Hao was silent and patted Baozhu's shoulder lightly.

  This child can really comfort people.

After   , the weather was calm, and soon came the day of the canonization of the prince. There is no need to elaborate on the solemn and cumbersome canonical ceremony. In the congratulations of hundreds of officials, King Wei became the new prince.

   Having an heir for the emperor is not only a family matter, but also a state matter. Whether it is true or false, all the officials are beaming with joy, and the streets are lit up with lanterns. From the court to the people, everyone is immersed in the joy of having a prince.

   Except for Liang Wangfu.

  The abolished prince could have participated in the canonization ceremony as King Liang, and the officials in charge of the ceremony under the instruction of Emperor Tai'an knew that they would bypass the Prince Liang's mansion, and the news of the king of Liang would not be heard until all the dust had settled.
