Vol 2 Chapter 523: Confrontation

Ren Yaoqi is a calm and careful person. She doesn't believe in coincidences. Too many coincidences are strange.
For example, Xiao Jingyue was "sleeping", Xiao Jingxi disappeared in danger, Xiao Jinglin left Yanbei for Wuzhou, Zhao Yingqiu got married, the princess went to the Yun family for a banquet, and her two maids who never left her suddenly disappeared. All these things happened. It happened together so that she couldn't help being vigilant.
Mulberry soon brought in Tonghe and Tongxi, and the two came forward and saluted respectfully.
Ren Yaoqi nodded and asked, "Is there anything wrong in the mansion today?"
Tonghe and Tongxi glanced at each other when he heard the words, and Tonghe asked carefully: "What does the young lady mean?"
Ren Yaoqi thought for a while and asked directly: "For example, is there anything happening in Erfang or Princess Daliao?"
Xiao Jingxi and Xiao Jinglin are not in the mansion, there must be people who "look after" them in the palace. Although Tonghe and Tongxi are just Xiao Jingxi's servants, they are not ordinary servants. Many things in the residence have to be dealt with. Their hands.
Tongxi and Tonghe thought for a while, or Tonghe first said: "The second master went out early in the morning. The third master has been ill and has not recovered. Princess Yelu has not been out since the morning. Practice calligraphy in the study."
All this sounds nothing unusual.
At this moment, someone outside reported that Princess Yun had come.
The first sentence of Princess Yun came in was: "I heard you are uncomfortable? How are you now?"
Ren Yaoqi glanced at Nan Xing who was behind Concubine Yun, smiled and stood up to salute Concubine Yun: "It's nothing serious, but I just vomited badly. I didn't expect them to disturb you."
Concubine Yun stopped Ren Yaoqi's salute, relieved, pointed to Nan Kang and asked Ren Yaoqi to sit with her, and then said: "Your mother is not in the house, they can only come to me, okay It’s okay. You’ve been around for more than three months, and you’ll feel better in a while, so be patient. Have you asked the doctor? If you vomit badly, let the doctor see."
This is the first time that Princess Yun said so many things to Ren Yaoqi in one breath, but Ren Yaoqi didn't feel annoyed. She personally took the tea from the maid and offered it to Princess Yun, and then smiled and said, "Mrs. Gong I just came to see it yesterday and said that I am in good health and my child is also good."
Concubine Yun nodded, "Well, that's okay." After she said, she raised her head and saw Tonghe and Tongxi standing outside behind the curtain, and she couldn't help frowning.
Ren Yaoqi didn't say anything, but just told him and the other two: "Go down first, and then send people to look around for wild cats. That thing is not a domesticated wild cat. If it ran into the mansion, it wouldn't be. It's a joke."
Tonghe and Tongxi were not at all surprised when they heard this inconsequential remark, and bowed respectfully, and replied: "Young lady, please rest assured, the subordinates will not let the wild cat in."
Concubine Yun looked at their leaving back, frowning and said, "Is there a wild cat in the house?"
Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "Today the maid heard the cat barking, so I asked them to find it for help."
Concubine Yun nodded: "It's always right to be careful."
Then Yun Taifei and Ren Yaoqi began to gossiping without a word. Yun Taifei is not a good talker. Although Ren Yaoqi has become familiar with her after a period of time, she is cold. However, her temperament has not changed, but since Ren Yaoqi became pregnant, Princess Yun's attitude towards her has changed a lot.
Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Ren Yaoqi, Princess Yun wanted to go back, but she smiled and begged: "Grandma, it's still early, why should I accompany you in the next game?"
Concubine Yun glanced at Ren Yaoqi and said quietly: "Are you playing chess with me or I playing chess with you? I think you stayed in the yard for too long and your skills are itchy, right? Head up!"
Having said that, Princess Yun did not get up.
Ren Yaoqi still smiled, and didn't refute: "It's really itchy hands."
Mulberry was clever, and immediately went and took out the chessboard.
Concubine Yun picked up a sunspot with a cold face and said, "Only in the next game, you have a body, so you shouldn't think too much."
Ren Yaoqi quickly responded.
It's just that this round is not so easy to end. Seeing that more than half an hour has passed, and the black and white chess pieces are still glued together, Princess Yun frowned and said, "Make it, there is no meaning to play again." Yun Tai The concubine was born in the Yun family, and naturally she is also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy, but she doesn't like these things very much. Today, she also patiently accompanies Ren Yaoqi to play chess.
Ren Yaoqi knew how to accept it as soon as he saw it, so if Concubine Yun couldn't tell, she responded with a smile.
"Mother hasn't come back yet?" Princess Yun was drinking tea, and Ren Yaoqi asked an apple while picking up a chess piece.
Apple said: "The princess hasn't returned home yet."
Concubine Yun frowned and said, "Could it be possible that you still want your mother to accompany you in the next game? Why haven't you seen that you are so clingy before."
Ren Yaoqi heard that it was difficult to refute, but just smiled: "It's just too early to watch."
Concubine Yun looked at the sky outside after hearing the words: "It's not too late, it's just after the auspicious hour, and the seats should be open."
As he was talking, someone outside came to report that Yelüsag was coming.
Concubine Yun couldn't help but glanced at Ren Yaoqi in surprise, and then a little displeased: "Why did she come? What are you doing with her foreigner?"
Ren Yaoqi heard that the Princess of the Liao Kingdom came to her but did not show any surprise. Seeing that Princess Yun was upset, she smiled and said, "This is the first time she came back to Zhaoning Hall to find me. I don't know what she is doing. ."
Concubine Yun said: "Then let her go back, no see!"
Ren Yaoqi asked, "Did the princess come alone or brought someone?"
Apple lowered his head and replied, "I brought only a maid."
Ren Yaoqi thought for a while, and discussed with Princess Yun: "She never comes to Zhaoning Hall. I'm sure there is something going on at this moment in time. Or should I see you?"
Although Princess Yun was displeased, this was not her Lanxiu Palace after all, so she just snorted lightly after listening, but didn't insist on it anymore.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but smile. She likes Princess Yun the most. Although her temper is not good and her temperament is very cold, she never overpowers others, does not rely on the old to sell the old. At her age, with her status, very few people can do this.
Ren Yaoqi said to Apple: "Bring the princess in, but her maid will be waiting outside."
Apple answered, and soon led Yelvsag in.
Yelv Sage still wore a Han Chinese suit, but it was fiery red. In addition to the exquisite and complicated dahlia embroidered on the skirt, there was also a fire cloud totem with foreign characteristics.
Ren Yaoqi has seen several women who are very suitable to wear red clothes, such as her sister Ren Yaohua, and the foreign princess in front of him. It's just that Ren Yaohua wearing red will make people feel a gorgeous and elegant beauty, while Yelvsag in red makes people feel fierce, and after a long time, they will feel pain in the eyes.
Concubine Yun's face turned cold when she saw Yelv Sage's clothes, and she reprimanded her mercilessly: "Aren't you learning the rules? Who allowed you to wear red!" The fiery red body also stabbed Yun Tai. Concubine's eyes.
Yelv Sage bowed his head to give Concubine Yun a gift from the Liao Dynasty. When she raised her head, she smiled heartily, and was not embarrassed or angry because of Concubine Yun's words: "Sag didn't know that the Concubine Concubine was there, she was rude." After a pause, she looked down at her clothes and said helplessly, "I love red the most. It's a pity that I have been in Yanbei for so long. This is the first time I wore it today."
Speaking of Yelv Sage, he looked at Ren Yaoqi and said seriously, "Do you think I look good in red?"
Ren Yaoqi looked at her carefully, then smiled and said, "Good-looking is good-looking, but it is not in compliance."
Yelv Sage sat down on the chair and sighed after hearing the words: "You Han people are good at everything, where you live, the clothes you wear, the food you eat, the looks of men and women are good, but there is something bad. , There are too many rules. Sometimes I really don’t understand why I have to make so many rules to embarrass myself since I can live unfettered? Isn’t this asking for trouble?"
Ren Yaoqi thought about it seriously, and then smiled and said, "The princess has some truth in what she said. Spring and winter come, flowers are blooming, vegetation is withered, these things are all smooth and natural, and nothing more beautiful. But princess, what is in your head Is that dahlia the same one from last year?"
Yelusag was stunned when he heard the words.
Ren Yaoqi sighed and smiled and said, "So, if people don’t make so many rules to embarrass themselves, they will be embarrassed by God. If your tribe wants to live unfettered, they need to keep moving to ensure that cattle and sheep have Abundant aquatic plants can thrive, and because we have too many rules, our ancestors have been confined to this land for generations, and take root, as long as people are at the roots."
Yelvsag was silent for a long time, and then said: "You mean, to keep the rules for longer?"
Ren Yaoqi but said nothing.
Yelv Sage glanced at Ren Yaoqi and frowned, "It sounds like some truth. One thing I have to convince you Han Chinese is that there are too many smart people. You can convince me with just a few words. I used to I heard that the women here are not as good as men, so women can only be kept at home to give birth to men. But after I came here, I discovered that this is not the case. An unexpected woman. Another example is Princess Yanbei. She can manage such a large palace in an orderly manner, no worse than an official who manages a county. But in that case, why are you willing to stay behind a man?"
Ren Yaoqi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Is the princess trying to fight injustice for our Han women, or is it expressing her unwillingness? The princess is no worse than her brother, but she finally became the king of Liao." Why not a princess? I wonder if the princess is willing?"
