Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role
Chapter 127 The real gold that was cannon fodder 17
The sound of raindrops was dripping, and the bluestone slabs were also covered with water stains. Zuo Xuanhe was running in the rain, his feet slipped, and he fell to the ground.
He was drenched from the rain, and his palms were broken by the broken stones from falling on the bluestone slabs, making him look a little disheveled.
Zhao Yusong caught up with her and couldn't bear it anymore, so he picked her up and carried her to a pavilion not far away.
Zhao Xuanhe was still crying, "Brother Yusong, you like Zuo Lingruo, right?"
Zhao Yusong was silent. He didn't know how to explain to the woman in front of him that Zuo Lingruo indeed had a place in his heart.
"He'er, Lingruo is fine."
"What about me? Have you forgotten our past?" It was obvious that Zhao Yusong did it for her at the beginning.
"He'er, you and she are both fine. Now that things have come to this, let's just follow our parents' arrangements." Zhao Yusong turned his head away, unable to bear looking at Zuo Xuanhe.
"What do you mean? You...really don't want me anymore." Zuo Xuanhe felt heartbroken.
"It's okay, I can be your concubine..." Zuo Xuanhe spoke with a sob, as if she had made a great decision.
"No." Zhao Yusong shook his head. He knew that Zuo Xuanhe was arrogant and must have made a huge concession to say this, but he just didn't want to. He didn't want to see Zuo Lingruo sad.
Zuo Xuanhe was shocked by his rejection. She didn't expect that she had made such a great sacrifice, but Zhao Yusong still didn't agree.
Why, why, Zuo Lingruo wants to come back, why, to take away everything that belongs to her.
At this moment, she hated Zuo Lingruo so much. She didn't think at all that she wanted to use the change of the engagement to gain a good reputation for herself. She was too confident that her lover Zhao Yusong would not change his mind.
"Let's just abandon that plan." What Zhao Yusong was talking about was naturally the plan to ruin Zuo Lingruo's innocence and bring her disgrace.
When he proposed it, Zuo Xuanhe pretended that she didn't want him to do it, but now that Zhao Yusong really proposed not to do it, she felt uncomfortable.
"Yeah." Zuo Xuanhe replied. As for what she was thinking in her heart, Zhao Yusong didn't know.
In the temple.
Zuo Lingruo passed the message to Madam Zhao and Madam Zuo, informing them that she would return to the Shangshu Mansion first.
In fact, he was sent back by the second prince.
"Let's stop here, otherwise it will be bad if other people see us." Zuo Lingruo hooked his chin in the carriage and smiled sweetly at him.
Si Linxuan's breath caught in his throat. "Okay."
Looking at his reaction, Zuo Lingruo laughed like a silver bell.
Shangshu Mansion.
Several weeks had passed since the last incident at the temple. During these weeks, Zuo Lingruo was invited by Mrs. Zhao to visit the general's residence. Since the two families were an engaged couple, no one would gossip about them.
But some people would sigh, saying that she is indeed a real daughter, and Mrs. Zhao fell in love with Zuo Lingruo so quickly.
It is said that Mrs. Zhao had a cold attitude towards Zuo Xuanhe before.
Zuo Lingruo only went there once, taking the opportunity to find a chance to quietly explore Zhao Yusong's study.
Sure enough, the matter of Zhao Yusong and Prince Jing was found out.
It turned out that the General's Mansion was secretly helping Prince Jing, secretly raising private soldiers, mining iron ore, and buying and selling official titles.
Each and every incident was enough to bring great misfortune to the General's Mansion. It seemed that they were really sure that Prince Jing would become the future emperor, so they were so bold.
Zuo Lingruo secretly took away the key evidence and secretly forged a fake one and put it there. If you don't look carefully, you naturally can't tell the difference.
It is autumn now, and the wind is blowing coldly. These days, things have been relatively peaceful and the atmosphere in the capital has been relaxed. However, those who are observant know that this is the calm before the storm.
The Second Prince and Prince Jing's factions suppressed each other. The Second Prince, who was originally at a disadvantage, had the strength to compete with Prince Jing's faction within just a few days after returning to the capital.
The current emperor is already old and his health has been failing. The struggle for the throne is surging.
On this day, it was the birthday of Prince Jing's mother. In order to show his favor and to balance the Second Prince's recent overbearing arrogance, the Emperor publicized the event with great fanfare and invited many ministers and their families.
The Shangshu Mansion was naturally also invited, and Madam Zuo brought Zuo Lingruo and Zuo Xuanhe into the palace.
There were a lot of ministers' families at the banquet. After Mrs. Zuo arrived, she dealt with the ministers' wives and let Zuo Xuanhe and Zuo Lingruo go to the young ladies of each family on their own.
As soon as Zuo Lingruo arrived, the Prime Minister's eyes lit up and she quickly went up to her and started talking to her.
As for Zuo Xuanhe, because of the previous situation, other people were not very friendly to her, and for a moment, she was actually a little embarrassed.
A trace of hatred flashed through her heart. If it weren't for Zuo Lingruo, she would still be a talented woman in Beijing praised by everyone. How could she have come to this point today?
But it doesn’t matter. After today, let’s see how Zuo Lingruo can still be proud of her.
Two days ago, Zuo Xuanhe took advantage of their old friendship to secretly invite Zhao Yusong out, and then stole his token, mobilizing the spies arranged by the General's Mansion in the palace to work for him.
A little palace maid passed by Zuo Lingruo, and the wine and juice in her hand accidentally spilled all over the ground and splashed on her skirt.
"I deserve to die, I deserve to die." The little palace maid turned pale with fear. She had been feeling a little uncomfortable in her stomach today and wanted to ask her superior palace maid to arrange for her to do other work, but she was rejected.
Now that something has gone wrong, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape the blame.
Looking at the little palace maid who was so frightened that her face turned pale and she was trembling all over, Zuo Lingruo did not blame her too much. This little palace maid was also pushed out as a shield.
"This... Lingruo, go change your clothes quickly. You have to celebrate the Queen's birthday later. It will be bad if your skirt gets dirty." The Prime Minister's daughter reminded.
"Yes." Zuo Lingruo nodded and followed a palace maid to the changing room.
"Miss Xuanhe, my Master Zhao is looking for you." The green-clad palace maid stepped forward and whispered in Zhao Xuanhe's ear.
Zhao Xuanhe had already seen Zuo Lingruo leave with the palace maid, and she felt relieved. But when she saw another palace maid in green looking for her, her heart was in suspense again. Could it be that Zhao Yusong had discovered that he had stolen his token?
But what does it matter? She has already done it anyway. So what if he is coming to settle the score with her?
It is still necessary to explain to Zhao Yusong. When she sheds a few tears, he will probably forgive her because of their relationship over the years.
Zhao Xuanhe stood up and followed the green-clad palace maid.
After passing the winding corridor, we came to a private room.
As soon as she entered, the door was immediately closed by the green-clad palace maid.
Startled, Zhao Xuanhe knocked on the door hurriedly, but the person outside ignored him.
So she turned around and looked around the room, and saw Zhao Yusong. She felt a little uneasy, knowing that she had been discovered stealing the token.
"Yusong, listen to my explanation..." But she didn't notice that Zhao Yusong's condition was a little wrong and his face was flushed.
At this moment, Zuo Xuanhe felt a little hot all over, and the room seemed to be burning with aphrodisiac incense.
