Chapter 489: 345. Vaccinating Xiao Shimei, Three Pure Sect Comes Again

345. Vaccinating Xiao Shimei, Three Pure Sect Comes Again

Ouyang Rong turned back and looked at Rong Zhen.

The latter was looking at the surrounding scenery as if nothing had happened, seemingly uninterested in the conversation between the Ru Shixiong and Xiao Shimei.

"I know, Xiao Shimei, wait a moment."

Ouyang Rong whispered in Xie Lingjiang's ear and turned to walk toward Rong Zhen.

Coming to Rong Zhen, Ouyang Rong said embarrassedly:

"Sorry, Female Official Rong, that little princess of the Xunyang Prince's mansion has an urgent matter to find me, so I have to go back first. By the way, did Female Official Rong invite me to lunch just now?"

"Aren't you going back? What are you eating?" She asked again: "Why haven't you left with your precious Xiao Shimei yet?"

Rong Zhen's crisp and quick words made Ouyang Rong choke.

This conversation with gunpowder was really hard to pick up.

However, Ouyang Rong's face was quite thick.

"Isn't it because I'm afraid that Female Official Rong has something important here and I missed it..."

Rong Zhen interrupted:

"If I had an urgent matter, would I let you go back so easily? You tell me, is our public business of building the Donglin Great Buddha for His Majesty important, or is your private business with the Xunyang Prince's mansion important? I don't know if Scholar Ouyang can distinguish, but I can distinguish it myself."

Rong Zhen's pretty face tightened, and she was justified, her tone quite loud, causing the red-clothed figure waiting not far away to turn her head frequently.

Some female officials passing by... laugh to death, no female officials passed by here at all.

Perhaps it was because the three people gathered together too eye-catchingly, or perhaps it was because the cheap brother-in-law Wang Caozhi was continuously exerting force for his good brother-in-law, and no one came to the camp entrance for a long time.

"So what is Scholar Ouyang doing standing here? Why haven't you left yet?"

Rong Zhen's tone was cold, but at this time, she saw that Ouyang Lianghan's original stunned expression disappeared, and his brows gradually wrinkled.

Rong Zhen suddenly added:

"My meaning is, there is nothing important here, you can go and do your private business. I am not dissatisfied, don't think too much."

She turned her head, seemingly very impatient with this repeated explanation, but had to say it for the sake of her colleagues.

Ouyang Rong loosened his brows, looked at this palace-dressed girl whose tone of speech could indeed easily cause contradictions, and nodded:

"I understand. Thank you, Female Official Rong, for your understanding. I also understand Female Official Rong. We are colleagues, and in terms of understanding, it should be mutual."

"Verbose, how is it like that old senior." Rong Zhen looked into the distance and said stiffly.

Ouyang Rong couldn't help but stop: "Which old senior?"

Rong Zhen pursed her lips:

"If you have nothing to do, stay for lunch later, you can meet him at the dining table, but now you have urgent private business, so forget it, next time."

Ouyang Rong nodded:

"Okay, by the way..."

He seemed to have remembered something and turned back to say:

"Last time, Female Official Rong asked me to find some peach blossom forests around Xunyang City. Sorry, there is no clue yet. If I find it later, I will tell you immediately."

Finding the peach blossom forest was something Rong Zhen mentioned casually while interrogating prisoners in the prefecture prison last time. Ouyang Rong sent people to look for it afterwards.

"Okay."

"Is it not an important matter?" Ouyang Rong joked.

"Not really, just fulfilling a wish for the old senior."

"This old senior is interesting."

"You might be able to talk." Rong Zhen looked at him and said softly.

Ouyang Rong smiled.

Not long after, the explanation was finished, and Ouyang Rong turned and left.

"Wait, is the hairpin on your Xiao Shimei's head bought by herself, or did you give it to her?"

Rong Zhen suddenly called out to Ouyang Rong.

"Ah?" Ouyang Rong turned back in confusion.

He seemed to be thinking about something and didn't react immediately: "What did Female Official Rong say? What hairpin?"

Rong Zhen waved her hand: "Forget it, nothing, you go quickly."

After speaking, she turned and left first, her steps fast, disappearing in an instant.

Ouyang Rong breathed a sigh of relief.

After returning, he took Xie Lingjiang, boarded the carriage together, left the Xunyang Grotto camp, and drove back to Xunyang City.

In the carriage, Xie Lingjiang tilted her head and asked:

"Ru Shixiong is really giving face, explaining so much to this Female Official when returning to the city."

Without outsiders, Ouyang Rong leaned back, lying on his Xiao Shimei's round and straight long legs, grabbing one of her soft hands and rubbing it gently.

He asked strangely: "Why is Xiao Shimei angry with Female Official Rong?"

Xie Lingjiang suddenly calmed down:

"Who is angry with her? She still has the face to say Ru Shixiong can't distinguish. I think she is the one who can't distinguish the most."

After a pause, she pointed to her own face:

"I am not angry at all. Where did Ru Shixiong see me angry?"

Ouyang Rong was helpless, where are you not angry?

"Don't get angry with nodules."

"Nodules? What is that?" Xie Lingjiang was confused.

It was another strange term that popped out of Ru Shixiong's mouth, but she was getting used to it, and instead became very interested, liking to get to the bottom of things.

Ouyang Rong coughed and said nothing.

After a while, Xie Lingjiang calmed down, held Ouyang Rong's face with both hands, and began to rub his brows.

Ouyang Rong closed his eyes, preparing to enjoy it, but didn't expect Xie Lingjiang to ask suddenly:

"The hairpin that Female Official Rong wore just now looks familiar... Ru Shixiong, why is she following the trend too?"

Xie Lingjiang asked, and at the same time pulled out the mandarin duck jade hairpin on her head, squinting and looking at it.

Ouyang Rong was lying on her lap, and when she twisted the hairpin to look at it, it happened to be swaying left and right in front of his eyes.

Ouyang Rong couldn't help worrying in his heart. If Xiao Shimei accidentally slipped her hand, wouldn't the tip of this hairpin be inserted into his unparalleled handsome face?

Ouyang Rong maintained a posture of looking straight ahead and responded calmly: "Everyone has a love for beauty, and Female Official Rong is also a woman."

"That's true, humph, anyway, I didn't spend money." Xie Lingjiang's pretty face was a bit happy, her mood improved, and she re-inserted the mandarin duck jade hairpin into her hair bun.

Ouyang Rong breathed a sigh of relief and took the initiative to say:

"If Xiao Shimei is angry, you can think about the owner of the Butterfly Love Flower. Will Xiao Shimei still be angry?"

Xie Lingjiang squinted and nodded slowly:

"So Ru Shixiong is so patient with her? Willing to endure her bad temper when getting along?"

"Otherwise?" Ouyang Rong sighed, his tone a bit embarrassed: "Anyway, every time I think about it, I feel that Female Official Rong is not bad, and the more Female Official Rong trusts me, the more ashamed I feel. My attitude naturally has to be better. Are we the kind of ungrateful people?"

"Humph, also a fool."

Xie Lingjiang bit her lip and hummed, her mood improved again.

After all, this Female Official was still kept in the dark. From the perspective of a bystander, a sense of superiority arose spontaneously.

At this time, Ouyang Rong suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and accidentally bumped into Xie Lingjiang's arms. His forehead felt like bumping into a water bag, and his head and the water bag swayed together for a while before he recovered. He didn't know which one stopped first.

"Is Ru Shixiong okay?"

Xie Lingjiang felt pain in her body, but the first time she hugged Ru Shixiong's head, looking at his forehead with concern.

"It's okay, cough, what can happen, it can't be broken."

Ouyang Rong recovered, waved his hand, but couldn't help but look at it twice more, as if he was really afraid of breaking it, but not his head.

"What are you doing?" Noticing the gaze, Xie Lingjiang blushed.

"Good." Ouyang Rong nodded and agreed.

The next moment, before Xie Lingjiang could react to what Ru Shixiong agreed to, she felt her body lose balance. When she recovered, she had already been hugged into Ru Shixiong's arms, her two legs straddling him, face to face.

Ouyang Rong nodded: "This sitting posture is much more comfortable. The carriage is too small, it's too crowded for two people to sit side by side. You have to sit like this, but Xiao Shimei is a bit heavy..."

"Not allowed to say!" Xie Lingjiang, who was originally blushing and burying her chest, suddenly raised her head and scolded shyly: "You are the heavy one."

Ouyang Rong blinked.

Before Xie Lingjiang could scold him again, Ouyang Rong had already switched topics smoothly:

"And the current pattern of Xunyang City, for Female Official Rong, we can't be hostile, especially the Xunyang Prince's mansion, Xiao Shimei, do you understand? If I were the Wei family, I would try my best to win over the relatively neutral Female Official Rong...

"Because Female Official Rong's position is very critical. This joint petition to ask for help from the imperial court is also the same... We have to be polite to Female Official Rong. Some unique personalities, we can endure if we can... Moreover, after getting along for so long, I found that Female Official Rong doesn't seem to be as strict and difficult as the rumors say, but rather cold on the outside and warm on the inside..."

Ouyang Rong explained seriously.

Xie Lingjiang was slightly stunned and listened quietly.

The two maintained a face-to-face posture, and Xie Lingjiang sat on Ouyang Rong's lap.

Ouyang Rong hugged her waist with both hands, his palms on her waist, not moving much, speaking softly.

Xie Lingjiang had some small precautions against the Ru Shixiong who loved to make trouble, supporting his chest with both hands and keeping a distance.

But in this sitting posture, his two legs under her bottom were tilted inward, causing Xie Lingjiang's body to have an inertia of sliding into his arms.

Seeing Ouyang Rong speaking seriously and his hands being honest, Xie Lingjiang simply lowered her upper body and leaned gently into his arms, listening attentively.

Her hair made Ouyang Rong's nose a bit itchy, and Xie Lingjiang's head tilted.

"Why does Ru Shixiong have so much patience today to tell me this."

Ouyang Rong said sincerely: "Some things need to be explained clearly to Xiao Shimei. We need to communicate with each other. Recently, Xiao Shimei has been guarding the Xunyang Prince's mansion, and we haven't chatted for a long time."

"You know it too." Xie Lingjiang raised her head, rolled her eyes at him with her side face:

"Every time you come, you are either looking for the Prince or Guoer sister."

Ouyang Rong was helpless, knowing he was in the wrong, and didn't dare to say much.

"Also, why has Ru Shixiong become honest?" Xie Lingjiang was suspicious.

Ouyang Rong was solemn, raising both hands to signal:

"Then okay, was it bumped just now? Do you want me to rub it?"

"Don't even think about it."

Xie Lingjiang blurted out and refused shyly.

But didn't expect Ouyang Rong to nod directly without bargaining:

"Okay."

Xie Lingjiang was slightly stunned, so she had to nod, and buried her head in his arms again.

So the two maintained a face-to-face sitting posture and were quiet for a while, with only the occasional bumping of the carriage.

Just in the silence.

Ouyang Rong heard a cold hum suddenly come from the green-silk little head buried in his chest:

"Humph, as you wish."

Ouyang Rong laughed.

After thinking about it, one hand went to rub Xie Lingjiang's small, red earlobe, and one hand went to check if the future son's canteen had been bumped. He didn't blink his eyes and whispered a "This is the top priority in the family" in Xie Lingjiang's ear, causing Xie Lingjiang to scold him.

However, this hand of his just squeezed in, but was nervously grabbed by the beauty's two soft hands. Looking at the semi-pushing and semi-accepting strength, it was not blocking, but... supervision? Three hands squeezed into the canteen together, and it didn't look crowded, which shows the spaciousness and mouth-blessing of the future son's canteen...

Ouyang Rong was a bit emotional. Xiao Shimei is really too gifted. That Heroine Fang, who looks like she has big thunder, also has to bow down. The latter is showing mountains and dew, while Xiao Shimei is not showing mountains or dew, and usually tries her best to cover it up. The realm is obviously slightly better.

As the saying goes, one doesn't know the true face of Lushan, only because one is in this mountain. It is quite appropriate to describe the current Xiao Shimei.

Xie Lingjiang didn't know that Ru Shixiong had traveled through mountains and rivers, and the poems and doggerel in his mind were so many.

As time passed, the head she rested on Ouyang Rong's shoulder buried lower. Just when she was wandering outside the world, feeling that everything was silent, she felt a slight pain, and suddenly found that Ru Shixiong had leaned into her ear.

"Isn't this a nodule? Still saying you are not angry."

Ouyang Rong made an effort to pinch to indicate, and at the same time introduced in a low voice.

The beauty was suddenly shy and glared, wishing she could eat him. What kind of strange knowledge is this? Nodule, your hammer, although it sounds a little reasonable...

After a while, Ouyang Rong became honest, and asked softly in her ear:

"By the way, did Xiao Shimei hear from Aunt that I had a child bride before?"

"Hmm." Xie Lingjiang's body paused.

She calmed down strangely. Ouyang Rong waited for a long time and didn't get an answer, so he had to change the subject:

"By the way, what happened to the little princess?"

Xie Lingjiang raised her head, and a look of seriousness appeared on her blushing face:

"It's Lu Ya Taoist friend who came, with important things to tell, seemingly related to the Tiannan Jianghu side. Guoer sister said, it's best for you to go over and listen, related to the Yunmeng Order..."

Ouyang Rong frowned.

For a moment, he didn't pay attention to his hand and used more force.

"Hiss, pain." Xie Lingjiang's brows suddenly frowned, and her teeth bit her lip.

Ouyang Rong hurriedly let go, patted her back gently, and coaxed: "Sorry, Xiao Shimei, pinch me."

Ouyang Rong: ……??

"If I get angry too much, is there really a nodule there? I thought it was because the restraint was too tight, making it hard..."

Ouyang Rong:...??

At sunset, Snow Wood Villa.

At the top of the mountain peak, in the "Chunting" pavilion, a golden-haired Great Female Monarch was sitting cross-legged alone, with a sword across her knees.

On the small tea table in front of her, there was a scroll that was closed and not unfolded.

The two bronze axis rods of the scroll shone with faint light under the setting sun.

Snow Candle stared at this familiar blood bronze with emerald eyes, saying nothing.

At this time, Yu Nianyuan walked in, turned her head to look at the worm girl waiting quietly like a statue on the pear tree outside, and asked casually:

"Great Yuan Shijie, the sword art requested by Mr. Wei..."

Just at this time, an outstanding Yue woman rushed over below, waiting in the distance outside the pavilion.

Yu Nianyuan saw this and walked over.

The Yue woman whispered a few words in her ear.

Yu Nianyuan took another look at the direction of the foot of the mountain, her expression somewhat surprised.

After the Yue woman left, she returned to the pavilion and said softly to Snow Candle:

"People from the Three Pure Sect have come. Zhang Shixiu, a yellow-purple direct descendant from the Long Hushan Heavenly Master Mansion, and Lu Ya, the mountain-walking generation of the Shangqing Maoshan, have come to see Great Yuan Shijie.

"The latter, when asking about swords in Peach Valley, went on stage and lost a peach sword. Great Yuan Shijie should know him."

"Oh, I know him." Snow Candle's tone was as usual, asking strangely: "So they are here to ask for the peach wood sword?"

Yu Nianyuan laughed:

"Great Yuan Shijie is joking. The two said they came on behalf of the Three Pure Ancestor Hall and brought several heavy gifts, including turtle bones from Maoshan, white pills from Zao Ge Mountain, and thunder talismans from Long Hushan. The two said they were offered to Great Yuan Shijie, and at the same time, they helped their elders pass on a few words."

"Send gifts and pass words?"

Snow Candle sneered immediately:
