Chapter 373: Meeting Wang Hongge Again
Chapter 373 Meeting Wang Hongge Again
Xue Mei and Xiao Jingcheng were about to go down the mountain, but then suddenly felt something was wrong.
"…Where is Xi'er?" Xue Mei asked Xiao Jingcheng, "Those two stinky brats are surrounding the Cao sisters. Isn't Xi'er with them?"
Xiao Jingcheng: “…”
How did he know?
Xue Mei was also helpless. While they were walking around, they actually lost Xier.
She said to Xiao Jingcheng: "It must be still in Ersheng Temple, let He Fang go and look for it."
Xiao Jingcheng called He Fang.
He Fang immediately appeared and returned to Ersheng Temple to find someone.
Xue Mei and Xiao Jingcheng continued to go down the mountain. When they talked about Xue Yutan, they didn't know what result she would get this time.
"The Imperial Concubine and Dan Tai must have to beat her to death at one time." Xue Mei said, "Let her turn over again means that the Imperial Concubine is weak."
"Do you want to hammer her to death?" Xiao Jingcheng also communicated with her in her way of speaking, "I can help her secretly so that she can never turn over."
Xue Mei: "She has no effect on me. The grudge between me and the Xue family was settled when I agreed to move out.
Now they are them, I am me. I neither treat them as relatives nor hate them. Xue Yutan is desperately hooking up with King Rui, not you."
Since Xue Yutan is not hooking up with Xiao Jingcheng, she is life or death, and Xue Mei doesn't care.
Besides, she felt that Xiao Jingcheng didn't need to come forward.
"Let's see how the imperial concubine dealt with it." Xue Mei smiled, "I believe in the imperial concubine's ability."
The two of them went down the mountain and arrived at the foot of the mountain. He Fang brought Xue Xi over.
Xue Xi looked embarrassed: "Big sister, where is my... my second aunt?"
"She has gone back with the old lady," said Xue Mei, "Something happened just now."
Xue Xi said oh.
On the way, Xue Xi was riding in a carriage, and Xue Mei and Xiao Jingcheng were riding together.
She asked He Fang to come in too and asked him: "Where did you find Xier?"
"There is a downward road on the moon-watching platform behind Ersheng Temple. The venue below is slightly larger, just connecting to a pavilion. When I arrived, Grandma Zhou was listening to the music there." He Fang said.
Xue Mei wondered: "Who plays the song for her?"
"The King's Officer." He Fang said.
"who?"
"Wang Hong Pavilion."
Xue Mei: "..."
Xiao Jingcheng had a expressionless face and waved slightly, and He Fang withdrew from the carriage.
He glanced at Xue Mei: "Didn't he give your sister a jade pendant before?"
He Fang returned the jade pendant.
"Yes."
"They know each other?" Xiao Jingcheng asked.
Xue Mei: "Probably...it's right."
Xiao Jingcheng didn't ask again.
The carriage arrived at the second room and put down Xue Xi. Xue Xi came over, walked to Xue Mei, and whispered to her: "Big sister, can I talk to you?"
Xue Mei knew she wanted to explain.
She nodded and got off the carriage.
He turned to Xiao Jingcheng and said, "Your Majesty, please go back first. I'll have dinner with my second aunt before going home."
Xiao Jingcheng happened to have something to do, so he left first.
The second aunt accompanied the old lady back to the Yongning Marquis Mansion. Zhao was in confinement. The second uncle and Xue Qing were both busy outside, and Xue Huai did not come back at Ersheng Temple.
Without a master at home, Xue Mei and Xue Xi sat down in the hall directly, not treating themselves as outsiders.
The maids hurriedly served tea.
"Madam isn't back?" asked Ruhua, the big manager beside the second aunt.
Ruhua is now married, not a maid, but she is too young to call her sister-in-law, so Xue Mei and Xue Xi both call her names directly.
"Go to the Marquis' Mansion." Xue Mei briefly said the matter and said, "You go in and tell your second sister-in-law, we will have dinner before we go back."
Like the Birch Road is.
While drinking tea, Xue Xi told Xue Mei about her encounter with Wang Hongge.
She was originally humiliated by the old lady and went out with her brothers. Later, they met the Cao sisters who came out to get some breath.
The Cao family prayed for blessings in the afternoon, and the abbot had no time to receive them in the morning. Mrs. Cao took a nap in the wing room, and the two young ladies couldn't rest and wanted to see the fun.
Ersheng Temple is divided into three floors. It is not a building level, but is divided into three temples according to the height of the mountain range.
The bottom is also the most effective, offering statues of various gods, and are magnificent; the second floor is dedicated to Guanyin, which is for women to seek children; the third floor is dedicated to the mountain god and a dressing table is built.
The so-called "dressing table" is what a woman seeks marriage.
The two ladies from the Cao family wanted to go up and take a look, but they were embarrassed.
The two brothers Xue Huai and Xue Run surrounded their sisters. Xue Xi could see the thoughts of her brothers. It was not convenient for her to be present.
When they went up, Xue Xi deliberately walked down.
Next to the main hall, there are steps upwards, and small towers are hidden in it.
The little monk swept the floor at the door and saw Xue Xi, but he just clasped his hands together and did not stop her.
This is called the Sutra Tower.
The scriptures in Ersheng Temple are all the most ordinary scriptures, and many of them are donated by major families. Pilgrims can come in and see them.
If someone likes it and takes away a sutra, it will be that the Dharma will save him, and his merits will be immeasurable.
Therefore, the young monk did not stop Xue Xi from entering, and was even quite welcome.
Xue Xi thought about going to read the scriptures and passing the time. When the second aunt's prayer was finished, she would go back together.
There are two floors of the Sutra Building. The first floor is an ordinary bookshelves, placed on three walls; there is a narrow staircase next to it, leading to the second floor.
The second floor is the place where Zen is discussed, and Xue Xi did not plan to go up.
She took a scripture at will and opened it to read it. Her knowledge was limited, and the scriptures were full of words. She could not understand it after reading for a long time. When she raised her eyes, she suddenly found someone standing on the stairs, staring at her in a daze.
She subconsciously took a step back and recognized the other party, he was Wang Hongge.
The strange man is here, and the two of them have a misunderstanding, so Xue Xi turns around and puts down the book and is about to leave.
She had never thought of saying hello.
"Madam Zhou." Wang Hongge spoke, "Please stay."
Xue Xi was already a woman and had a lot of confidence in her heart. She thought that she should no longer have any obstacles to Wang Hongge, and he also knew that she was married.
She stopped.
Wang Hongge walked a few steps down and did not get close to him: "I apologize to the young lady below. I once wrote a poem to criticize the mulberry and scolded the locust. It was purely impulsive and reckless. Please do not blame the young lady."
Xue Xi: "It's all over, Lord Wang doesn't have to worry about it. You didn't scold me by name."
She lowered her head, her eyes not looking at him.
Wang Hongge looked at her in a daze, his emotions were overwhelming, but he had nothing to say.
He still retained her earrings.
He still had the jade pendant.
He wanted to ask why he didn't explain the misunderstanding clearly since he knew his identity before getting married.
However, he was not qualified to ask this.
It was him who destroyed the possibility between them first.
Xue Xi left the Jinglou and couldn't tell what it felt, because Wang Hongge's eyes looked at her were so strong and painful.
She slowly walked to the pavilion.
She actually forgot how she got out of here, and she just walked here in a daze.
Wang Hongge followed him for some reason. He held a guqin in his arms and said to her: "Don't be afraid, I just want to play a song for you."
He blocked Xue Xi's path.
If Xue Xi walked past him, he might have taken her jewelry again like last time.
Xue Xi leaned back and stayed away from him as much as possible, feeling extremely anxious, thinking about how to get out.
"...If he falsely accused me of having a private meeting with him and writing poems is known to everyone in the world, what should I do?" Xue Xi almost went crazy for a moment.
