Chapter 674: Great Disappointment (Seven Watches)

Everyone present knew what the relationship between her and Princess Chu was, a few months ago, Yuan Xiuyu and Wu Wan'er had a miscarriage together, all kinds of evidence pointed to Wu Wan'er, the King of Chu thought that she also had no children, so he didn't deal with her, but he never went to her house again, so Wu Wan'er was no longer the mistress of the Chu Palace.

Of course, no matter whether the King of Chu was making a show to show favor to the Prime Minister or what, Yuan Jinyu didn't care. What she cares about is that the king of Chu did not fall because of the southern tour this time, but was still the regent.

It is difficult to defend the power of the army, and the same is true of this regency. During the three months of traveling with the emperor, the king of Chu may not have controlled many officials in his hands.

Speaking of which, Yuan Jinyu now feels that among their brothers, the most unlucky is Mu Zhao, and the most lossy is Mu Ze. Although Mu Ling didn't know anyone, at least he could serve by the emperor's side, so that the emperor could see his filial piety.

And now, when Yuan Jinyu mentioned Princess Chu, she was naturally talking about her sister-in-law.

Her tone was innocent and cheerful and bright: "Princess Chu has only been giving birth for a short time, and even if it is a full moon banquet, my father and his party have not caught up because of the southern tour." Later, there was the matter of Mu Zhao, and the king of Chu rushed from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River, which also shows that he is loyal to his father. When my father returned to Beijing this time, he should reward several princes, but that is far from enough for His Royal Highness the King of Chu, we might as well send Iris over, her identity is there, for the princess of Chu, and she has not insulted anyone, and her martial arts are so good, she will definitely be able to protect the princess of Chu and the little prince in the future. ”

There was a hint of ridicule on the emperor's face, obviously thinking that Yuan Jinyu's intentions were not pure.

Yuan Jinyu blushed, and hid behind Mu Ze embarrassedly, and said to the emperor flatteringly: "Father, the concubine has said so much, in fact, she is thinking about her sister-in-law, and she is worried that she will be framed by someone with unknown intentions in the Chu Palace, so don't you look at Jinyu with that kind of teasing eyes, Jinyu has admitted it." ”

The emperor suddenly burst out laughing, obviously in a good mood. Mu Ze looked at the emperor, and then at Yuan Jinyu, thinking that her father favored her so much, as long as she opened her mouth, there would definitely be no problem.

Sure enough, the emperor nodded, and his voice was thick: "Then this matter, just do what you say, what about the others, do you have anything you want to ask for?"

Yuan Jinyu coughed: "If Jinyu says no, will my father believe it?"

After speaking, she glanced at Mu Ze with a red face, and her intention couldn't be more obvious, she clearly wanted to ask for a reward for Mu Ze.

Mu Ze was helpless, reached out and held her hand, and then apologized to the emperor: "Father, Jinyu is young and open-mouthed, please don't blame my father." ”

"Haha, what's there to blame for this, your princess thinks about you, it's a good thing. "The emperor didn't directly mention the reward, but Yuan Jinyu saw that he was in a good mood, and knew that he would not treat Mu Ze badly.

The emperor's words changed sharply, and then came to Mu Ling: "Speaking of which, your princess has also been gone for more than a year, so there are no children of the family who you like? ”

Mu Ling really doesn't care about the marriage leave now, but Yuan Jinyu doesn't think that he is guarding for anyone, Mu Ling is the most patient among the princes, and he is even more than the king of Chu. He didn't get married, but he wanted to sue the emperor, he didn't have any intention of forming a party for personal gain, he only worked hard to contribute to the Great Zhou.

So this time, Mu Ling still smiled and declined: "My father has worked hard, and my son is grateful and terrified, but my son is really busy with official business now, and the most important thing is that he doesn't have a good eye, so please ask my father to give my son another time." ”

The emperor was also a little worried: "You don't want to think about you, you have to think about Lian Yi, how bitter should he be without a mother at such a young age?"

Mu Ling also stood up sternly and replied: "It is precisely because Lian Yi has no mother that Erchen doesn't want to wronged him." What if the young lady who married in doesn't know how to take care of Lian Yi, or is harmful to people? ”

The emperor saw Mu Ling's resolute attitude, so the matter had to be put on hold.

Yuan Jinyu couldn't help but think of Mu Ling in the previous life, he also did not marry after the death of the princess, but after ascending the throne, he married the daughters of many ministers of the court, and one even came with good news two months after getting married.

She secretly had some sarcasm in her heart, but she didn't show it on the surface.

said that the fruit wine was not on the top, and after drinking so much, he would still get drunk, and when the dinner was over, Mu Ze took Yuan Jinyu back to the cabin directly.

And Iris is still immersed in the joy of deliberately following Yuan Jinyu to Ning Wangfu, and when she went ashore on the second day, she saw Yuan Jinyu from a distance and gestured to her with her eyes.

Yuan Jinyu just smiled faintly at her, her smile was slightly cold, but the iris was far away, and she didn't notice the coldness on her face at all.

The iris matter is easy to do, the family that adopted her is a four-grade civil servant, and his wife is only pregnant with a son, and they have wanted a daughter for so many years, or the emperor personally asked someone to send Xia Iris, and they naturally accepted it happily.

The lady really liked irises, and she also felt that the child had suffered a lot outside, and she was asking for warmth and preparing clothes and food.

Iris enjoyed it as a matter of course, but did not have any affection for the family. All she was thinking about was why Yuan Jinyu's side hadn't moved yet, didn't she say that she was going to take herself to King Ning's Mansion?

Without waiting for the news from Yuan Jinyu's side, Iris actually waited for the will of the saint, what female guard, what Princess Chu, she was stunned in an instant.

She knew the father-in-law who passed the decree, it was Xiao Yuzi beside the emperor, and when the cheap lady she recognized was stuffing silver for Xiao Yuzi, she rushed directly to him in a hurry: "Father-in-law, are you mistaken? How did I get to Princess Chu?"

Xiao Yuzi didn't have a good impression of this iris at all, and now seeing her shouting like this, and she couldn't even claim to be self-proclaimed, she frowned even more: "This is all the emperor's will, where are we slaves qualified to ask questions?"

In a word, Iris's face turned red and white for a while, and this Xiao Yuzi was clearly secretly mocking her for being a minion, don't kick your nose too much.

So she could only take the holy decree gloomily, stand aside, and couldn't pull her face to thank Xiao Yuzi.

Xiao Yuzi snorted lightly: "Since you have entered Beijing with the saint, then you have to put away your original habits of the rivers and lakes, it seems that the miscellaneous family should let your adoptive parents find you a nurturing grandmother and teach you the rules well, otherwise she really sent it to the princess of Chu, she may not think it is a gift from the emperor, and think that the emperor is beating her." ”

After saying this, Iris became even more self-conscious. She doesn't have any sense of etiquette at all now, and she just offended Xiao Yuzi. He may sell the thin noodles of his adoptive parents and will not care about himself, but what about Princess Chu? I heard that she is the sister-in-law of Princess Ning, and she is also the favorite daughter of Mrs. Xiangye, and now that she has given birth to a little son, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is also very favored.

If she really offended Princess Chu, she might not know how to punish herself.

So Iris could only accept his fate and apologize respectfully to Xiao Yuzi: "Please also ask my father-in-law to have a lot, forgive the little girl this time, the little girl will definitely learn the rules in the future." ”

"It's kind of a bit of an eyesight. Xiao Yuzi glanced at Iris again, confiscated her adoptive parents' money, and left.

When he waited, Iris clenched his hands so tightly that his nails almost dug into the flesh. There was a deep hatred in her eyes at the moment.

Don't think about it, you know that not only did you not enter the Ning Palace, but also was arranged to the Chu Palace, it must be that Xiao Jin who is secretly obstructing. Iris can't wait to kill Xiao Jin now, but Xiao Jin is in Ning Wangfu, and she can still walk around on the boat before, and when she saw her, she inquired when she first settled in the capital, and that Ning Wangfu is an iron wall, and even a fly can't fly in.

Iris had hatred and anger in her heart, but she could only endure it, and secretly made up her mind that she must gain a firm foothold with Princess Chu and let Princess Chu look at her with admiration.

At this moment, Yuan Xiuyu is teasing Xiao Shizi. When I first asked for the title, the emperor gave me a name, called Mu Liancheng. Usually, Yuan Xiuyu calls him Chengcheng.

Iris over there received the holy decree, and her father-in-law also came to inform her, and when the king of Chu came back in the evening, Yuan Xiuyu told him about it.

Mu Liancheng was still young, and he was full and slept soundly, but Yuan Xiuyu still lowered his voice, and one hand gently patted his small body.

Mu Liancheng looked very much like the King of Chu, his small mouth was slightly open at the moment, and he was sleeping soundly, and every time Yuan Xiuyu looked at her little son, her eyes were so soft that she was a mess.

She was extremely glad that in this battle with Wu Wan'er, she was the one who won the final victory.

Although the king of Chu also has a room and concubines, Yuan Xiuyu doesn't care at all, she is now a son and everything.

After the emperor returned to Beijing, there were too many things to deal with, the king of Chu came back very late in the past two days, at this moment he had a tired face on his face, and after listening to Yuan Xiuyu's words, he just said: "Father is showing favor to us, I have also been in contact with the iris, but to be able to plan to assassinate my father for so long, must not be a good person, after being placed by your side, the affairs of the inner courtyard still have to be handed over to the maid you can trust to do, she is a martial artist anyway, and it is easy to do some errands." ”

The relationship between King Chu and Yuan Xiuyu is not bad now, and some things about going to Jiangnan this time are not hidden from her. But he and Yuan Jinyu hadn't met a few times, so naturally he didn't know that the maid next to Mu Ze was Yuan Jinyu, and he didn't expect that Iris would come to their husband and wife, both planned by Yuan Jinyu and Mu Ze.

Since Yuan Xiuyu got her son, she has also been extremely cautious, for fear that he will be hurt at all. At this moment, the little woman, who has always been gentle, has a determined light flashing in her eyes: "After the iris arrives at the concubine's side, it is better to settle down, otherwise the concubine will not let her go." ”

King Chu looked at her side face from behind her, and couldn't help but think in his heart that she had really changed too much. In the past, she would never have been able to say such strong words.
