Chapter 310
Today's dishes are completely Wang Yanqing's taste. Wang Yanqing slowly scooped the porridge, and heard two maids standing outside the partition, whispering: "Have you heard that the city gate is sealed, and you must show documents to enter and exit."
"Really, why is it suddenly being investigated?"
"I don't know, it seems to be looking for yesterday's assassin. Fortunately, there is still food in the house, so even if the merchants who do business can't get in, they can support it for a while."
The room was quiet, the two of them bit their ears quietly, and the sound reached Wang Yanqing's ears. Wang Yanqing lowered her eyes and made porridge. It seemed that Lu Heng didn't cheat completely yesterday, and the passage out of Beijing was indeed restricted.
Wang Yanqing drank the porridge leisurely. She was ready to listen to these maids "inadvertently" reveal other news, but after that, the maids were very calm, serving the meal honestly, without saying a single extra word. Wang Yanqing was a little surprised that Lu Heng didn't arrange for someone to sell his misfortune and clean it up for him?
After breakfast, the maid gently removed the pan. Jade was by Wang Yanqing's side. They were once inseparable, but now they are in the same room, but there is a wordless estrangement.
Fei Cui also noticed that Wang Yanqing treated her differently than before, even if Wang Yanqing was still gentle and kind when facing her, the two could no longer talk about everything.
A lot of things have changed in the past two years after being stolen by Lu Heng. Fei Cui felt that Wang Yanqing was different, and he couldn't tell exactly what was different. In the past, Wang Yanqing circled around Fu Tingzhou all day. When Fu Tingzhou was away, Wang Yanqing turned over the books Fu Tingzhou had read and studied the things Fu Tingzhou was interested in. Now Wang Yanqing also finds books for recreation in his spare time, but his style is very different from before.
Jade didn't know if this was another man's preference or Wang Yanqing's.
And neither of them mentioned the wedding day again.
At noon, the guards came in and reported that a man in plain clothes had left a box in the porter. Wang Yanqing took the wooden box, opened it, and saw a stack of old and huáng paper.
It is a family letter from Wang's family, and Wang Cong's family letter from the battlefield in his early years.
Wang Yanqing took out the household registration and looked through it carefully to make sure that it was not a fake, but the original that she brought from Datong Mansion. Wang Yanqing closed the box and asked, "Where's the person who sent the things?"
The guard stood outside the screen, lowered his eyes and said, "Reporting Madam, that person has left."
"What does he look like?"
The guard described it hard for a while, and Wang Yanqing heard that it was someone close to Lu Heng. But this is even more strange. After Lu Heng got her household registration, he didn't bargain, but sent his subordinates to deliver it, put down the things and left?
With such an important document, she thought he would come to the door for an excuse, but some of them didn't talk about it, but he gave her things so easily.
Wang Yanqing originally wanted Jade to put the box away, but suddenly stopped when he spoke, and changed his mind silently. Forget it, she should take care of such an important thing by herself. Feicui is from the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, and the other maids are from Lu Heng, so they are not credible.
In this mansion, she is the only one who is completely on her position.
Holding the wooden box in his hand, Wang Yanqing asked, "Does he only keep this wooden box?"
"There is one more sentence." The guard lowered his head more deeply and said, "He said that Madam please rest in peace, Lord Lu will definitely catch the assassin as fast as possible, and never let the thief disturb Madam."
Wang Yanqing nodded, but his heart was actually calm. Leaving aside other things, Lu Heng's work ability is indeed impeccable, and Wang Yanqing is very confident that he will solve the Dongying assassin. As for the safety of this house... Wang Yanqing never worried.
Wang Yanqing didn't sleep well last night, and she had no appetite all day today. She took two bites of food at noon, and slept with only a bowl of porridge at night. Wang Yanqing was particularly worried about seeing Lu Heng when she opened her eyes in the middle of the night, or Lu Heng sent someone to remind her to eat well. Fortunately, until she woke up the next day, nothing she worried about happened.
Wang Yanqing had to say he was relieved. Lu Heng didn't monitor her life continuously - whether he actually monitored Wang Yanqing and didn't want to think deeply, but at least he didn't jump out to point fingers. The people in the house did not secretly instill in her the idea that Lu Heng was very kind to her and that she should return to Lu Heng as soon as possible.
Lu Heng behaved like a decent gentleman, saying that he would not disturb her, so he really stopped outside the gate and no longer invaded her life without authorization. Therefore, Wang Yanqing was able to calm down for a while and recuperate quietly in the house. Otherwise, whenever any of the above things happened, Wang Yanqing would pack up and leave the capital immediately.
After breakfast, Feicui asked, "Girl, you've been depressed these days, why don't you go out for a walk?"
The other maids in the room cast their gazes secretly. They called Wang Yanqing Madam, and Feicui called Miss Wang Yanqing. Wang Yanqing shook his head and said, "There are still tricks going on outside. According to Jin Yiwei's speed, it's almost time to close the net in the past two days. Let's not go out and cause trouble."
The Japanese wanted to wipe out all the high-ranking officials of the court, causing the central government to move. But Elder Ge, Xun Gui and the others sacrificed their lives one by one. Entry and exit were strictly guarded, and the guards would not leave the body at all times. If one person had an accident, others would be alert. If the Japanese want to assassinate one by one, the probability of success is very low.
So they set their sights on Lu Heng's wedding banquet. Originally, if Lu Heng didn't get married, Fu Tingzhou's wedding in February would be their goal. But Lu Heng was holding a wedding in the first month of the month. The rank was higher, the time was closer, and the guests gathered together. All of them were noble and defenseless, so he was selected by the Japanese pirates.
