Chapter 7: Gossip in the Palace

Mo Caicai, who had lived in Qiyun Hall for nearly half a month, naturally didn't let himself be idle, and was already familiar with the big and small characters in the palace. Everyone talked about it in private, palace maid A: "The new Mo girl, she has a very good temper and looks as beautiful as a fairy, but...", Guard B continued: "It's just a bit of gossip." Palace maids C and Ding Xin nodded happily in agreement. They do things in the Qiyun Palace, and often deal with people in various palaces, and recently they often hear people from other places say that the new Mo girl in their palace squats with them from time to time to talk about this and that thing between the palace lady and the king, and the matter of the palace and the little maid...

Is she really so bored to be idle? Of course not. The little abacus in Mo Caicai's heart is fine, and he knows that the other side can win all battles. The royal palace of the human race seems to be peaceful on the outside, but the struggle on the inside is really not simple. First of all, this king has a younger brother, named Lin Junxian, it is said that he is free and loose, and he doesn't like to stay in the palace, and now he doesn't know where he has traveled. In short, it is an existence of a master in the world. However, things would not have developed so ordinarily, and people are all in love. Naturally, it also includes this imperial uncle with weak imperial power. When the current king is marrying the queen, it happens that this imperial uncle went up to ask for marriage on behalf of the king. In the process of courting, our imperial uncle Lin Junxian fell in love with his future sister-in-law at first sight, but the future queen mother had already planted a deep love for the king in her heart, and she was indifferent no matter how attentive he was. In other words, how did the queen fall in love with the king so much, it turned out that the queen was the daughter of the king's enlightenment teacher, and they had been playing together since they were children, and it was inevitable that the love was deep-rooted. Who told you Lin Junxian to love freedom when he was a child, and not to return home, and he can't blame anyone for missing the opportunity. Lin Junxian knew that this would be in vain later, so he had to give up. In a fit of anger, he packed his bags and began to wander the rivers and lakes.

"I think he's also that poor man..."When Mo Caicai heard this, she was also full of emotion, she had never experienced it, but she had seen it, so she could imagine it.

Then there are the various scandals of His Royal Highness. As a father from the beginning, he only married a queen and was used to pampering him every day. The eldest son did not carry on this fine tradition in the slightest. Today, a maid will be served, and tomorrow the minister's daughter will be asked to ask for guilt. It's very unstable. Private life is very unbearable. According to rumors, recently provoked Prime Minister Qin's youngest daughter, and the two were incompatible when they met, which made the court embarrassed. His Royal Highness is not young at this age, and the king has thought about marrying Qin and Jin with the Qin family, but Prime Minister Qin's answer is always ambiguous, and he does not refuse or agree. Mo Caicai thought to herself, isn't this just that the old man dislikes his future son-in-law for lingering in the flowers, and his conduct is worrying... Who does not think about his children?

Lin Zhi Lin Ye's relationship between the two brothers is not much gossip to hear, the two eat and sleep together when they are young, you beat me and I will spare you twice, it is not strange. When he grew up, he lived separately, and Lin Zhi often had his own palace and did not return, and stayed in the Qiyun Palace. It is conceivable how loving these two brothers are.

The most important thing Caicai has not forgotten, she remembers that when she first met Lin Ye, there was a woman who looked at her very unpleasantly. She inquired with the people of the Qiyun Palace, and the maid C said that the woman should be the daughter of the high priest Xinxiu, Xinsu. Accompanying the forest all the year round, the high priest has the right to be above one person under ten thousand people in their human race, and in their hearts the high priest is no longer a human being, but a god. He knows the art of divination and knows the future and the past. He said that even the king of today is to give three points. His daughter is naturally the saint of their human race.

Mo Caicai sneered, what kind of saint, if it's not your father, you can become a saint?

This saint usually has nothing, she just likes to follow their second highness, no matter what the second highness does, she is the first to raise her hand in approval and actively follow. Because of this, he was ridiculed by His Royal Highness Lin Zhi for a long time, saying that the second child is amazing, the saint of our human race hates to be the veins in your body that swing with you.

Hahaha, it's a very apt description. Mo Caicai silently added points to Lin Zhi's ridicule.

Their second highnesses are really unmoved, and they don't see how close they are, and there are a lot of courtesies that should be there, but I don't know if the second highness is dull or what.

"That's because you don't know anything, and your second highness doesn't have crooked thoughts about her at all. Mo Caicai thought to herself that the women she had seen in a hurry that day, all the girls had grown like that, and Lin Ye had done nothing, so she must not like it. Women chase men through the yarn, I don't see the forest in the wilderness, it's the desert.

"Then your high priest doesn't have any opinion on this?" Mo Caicai actively asked the palace maids.

The palace maids, you look at me, I look at you, and one of them said, "Girl, don't you really know?"

"What should I know?" Caicai is inexplicable.

Those little palace maids lowered their heads and whispered: "The holy woman cannot marry, she wants to inherit the mantle of the high priest and protect our human race all her life." ”

"Ah, where did your high priest's daughter come from?

"Girl, don't talk nonsense. The little palace maid nervously covered Mo Caicai's mouth, and she continued: "The holy woman is the daughter adopted by the high priest, the high priest went out to the north and stayed in a small tribe, it happened that the chief's wife of the tribe had just given birth to a female doll, which lady was plotted by someone, the chief died with the thief in order to save the lady, and the lady was sad and followed, and the high priest couldn't bear to see the little girl orphaned, so he took it back to the royal city and raised it as an adult. ”

Oh, it turned out to be a nun's character. Mo Caicai couldn't help but pout, if she Mo Caicai hadn't come here, then Lin Ye and the saint were also very compatible in terms of appearance. 'Hmph, but I'm here, and it's true that you don't have anything to do!'

In view of the fact that Mo Caicai usually treats the palace maids and guards very kindly, the little palace maids gave her another gossip and told her to listen. Caicai was happy to see it, grabbed another handful of melon seeds in her hand, and gathered with them on a small bench. "Tell me what's so fun?"

"Miss Mo probably doesn't know the reason why our Second Highness's cultivation has stagnated, right?" Palace maid A is a palace maid who has been serving by Lin Ye's side all the year round, she knows some inside information, and she is willing to tell Mo Caicai about this, but also for the sake of Mo Caicai's face of curing their Second Highness. She knew very well that this Mo girl was not an outsider to His Royal Highness. Except for His Royal Highness, no one has been able to live in their Prayer Cloud Hall in a grand manner.

"I don't really know that. Mo Caicai dropped the melon seeds in his hand and asked solemnly, "Lin Ye, was he killed?"

"Yes, so to speak. ”

When Caicai heard this, her round eyes narrowed, her anger rose suddenly, and she asked angrily, "Who harmed you?"

"Girl, don't be angry, you can't say that it was someone else's second highness. The palace maid wiped the sweat on her head, and she felt Mo Caicai's anger, a little calm.

"Okay, I'm not angry, you go on. Mo Caicai put away the anger around her, she didn't know what powerful kung fu she had learned in the places she had wandered around for so many years.

"The matter can be traced back to the time when the Second Highness was not yet born, the king and the queen took the great hall to go to Mixia Mountain to play, and when the mighty people and horses were resting in the mountain stream, they happened to meet a monk outside the party, and the man said to the queen's slightly bulging abdomen, 'I am afraid that the person in your belly is unknown, and I hope the king will destroy it quickly.'" ’。 When the king heard this, he was furious and killed him on the spot. The queen didn't take it seriously if she was a charlatan, but from that day on, the queen's fetus was very hard, and she had to vomit every time, she had no appetite, and she was getting thinner and thinner, and the king was so distressed that she could only use various elixirs to make up for the queen's body. Finally on the day of childbirth, the queen was born very difficult, and finally gave birth to the second highness on the third day, and the scene when the second highness was born is still unforgettable. Speaking of this, the faces of the little palace maids showed all kinds of admiration. "That day and night, the sky was still dark, the blue light in the sky filled the sky over the entire royal city, the blue light of the queen's bedroom was even worse, and the second highness also had a slight blue circle of light in the swaddling clothes, the king was not very happy, no one in the human race had such a strong cultivation from birth, even the high priest didn't know how to describe such a scene, only said, 'This son is extraordinary. But the good times are so short-lived, since the Second Highness came out of the mother's womb, he has become more and more fragile, and occasionally vomits blood, and after vomiting, he is like no one else, but this cultivation has not improved. The king is also a beloved son, and invited many people to treat His Royal Highness, and the doctors who came to treat him said that they were brought out by the mother's womb and could not be cured. Even the high priest said that the queen was able to keep the second highness, it was all the credit of the elixir, and it was not easy to become a normal person, let alone whether she could cultivate. Our Second Highness is not happy, but if we want to break through ourselves, our body will deteriorate and deteriorate. ”

"Didn't your king pursue what caused Lin Ye's weak body?"

"Yes. The king sent someone to investigate when the queen was pregnant with the second highness, but nothing was investigated, and even the high priest failed to divinate anything. Everyone thinks that the monks did it that day, otherwise the queen would not have been uncomfortable after that..."

After listening to the story, Mo Caicai chatted with them for a few more words and then went back to the dormitory. On the way back to the dormitory, she vaguely felt that things were not as simple as they said, and when she had time, she still had to ask Lin Ye herself, if someone here really wanted to murder him, then she had to deal with it quickly. You can't leave the danger around. This is her Mo Caicai, once she puts the person on the tip of her heart, she will not allow others to covet it.
