Chapter 170: A Major Discovery
Su Zixu woke up from his sleep, saw the brightness outside the window, rubbed his eyebrows, sat up from the bed, and called out of the house: "Liuli, Liuli." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
A "squeak" sound, accompanied by Liuli's voice: "Master, the slave is here." The door opened, and Ruri slowly walked inside.
Su Zixu rubbed his aching forehead and ordered, "Go and help the palace get a basin of water." β
After speaking, he got up from the bed and put on his clothes sleepily.
Ruri answered.
"Master, the slave maid heard that Mu Chongyi was grounded by the emperor for two months." Liuli replied while helping Su Zixu rub his shoulder.
Su Zixu opened his eyes and asked suspiciously, "Mu Chongyi?" β
Mu Guiyi was demoted?
"Well, the slave maid also heard that because of this incident, Mu Chongyi was furious in his dormitory and broke a lot of things."
"Hmm." Su Zixu responded indifferently.
"Why doesn't the master seem to be concerned about Mu Chongyi's affairs?"
"It's just a charge, and it's all over, there's nothing to worry about." Su Zixu said, continued to close his eyes, and lay on the bench.
Although he said this, he inevitably felt a little sad in his heart.
The wind in the harem has always changed quickly.
Thinking that at the beginning, when she was still graceful, she was beaten into the cold palace because she offended Concubine Shen. And now, with the emperor's favor, Mu Chongyi offended her, and was not only demoted, but also grounded.
Feng Shui takes turns, that's the reason.
The honor of a harem woman is always linked to grace. If she loses Emperor Yan's favor in the future, I'm afraid the end will not be much better.
"Master, have you heard? The emperor has asked the three princes to go to Yaoyun Palace to play with Concubine Shen in the past two days, and it is now rumored in the palace that the emperor intends to let Concubine Shen raise the three princes. β
"Huh?"
Liuli said quite angrily: "I heard that Concubine Shen does not object to the third prince going to her palace to play, but the third prince is ...... He seemed to like Concubine Shen very much, and he stayed in Yaoyun Palace whenever he had time for the past two days. It must be some kind of conspiracy and trickery used by Concubine Shen that the attitude of the three princes will change so much. In the past, the three princes liked you the most, and they didn't like to come to you these two days. β
"The emperor will find someone to raise the three princes after all, if the three princes like Concubine Shen, it is also the best of both worlds."
"Master." Liuli stomped her feet and said eagerly, "Concubine Shen can't raise the third prince. β
"Why not?" Su Zixu opened his eyes again, sat up and looked at Liuli and asked suspiciously.
"Because ......" Liuli was completely anxious, and replied hesitantly: "Slave... The slave just doesn't like her. β
"You don't have much contact with Concubine Shen, how can you be so prejudiced against her?"
"Master, you don't understand, Concubine Shen, she ......" Liuli didn't finish speaking, and then paused.
Concubine Shen's face is too similar to the previous master, she just can't like it, every time she sees that similar face, she feels insulted to the former master, and she is so angry.
Anyone can raise the three princes, but Concubine Shen cannot.
"Master, the third prince likes you so much, if you can raise him, you will definitely be able to take care of him."
"Why are you so sure that Hongu will take care of him? Don't forget, this palace is not his biological mother, and her affection for him is not so deep. Su Zixu laughed.
"Didn't the master really think about raising the third prince?" Ruri sighed leisurely and asked abruptly.
"Liuli, this palace sees that you don't like Concubine Shen very much, do you have something to hide from this palace?"
"Master, you don't know, Concubine Shen is favored because she looks like the biological mother of the third prince." Ruri said.
"I've heard a little about this palace, but what does this have to do with raising the third prince?"
Liuli looked around cautiously, lowered her head and lowered her voice and said to Su Zixu: "Master, you should know that you can't discuss things about Concubine Su in the harem, Concubine Shen is favored because she looks like Concubine Su, this matter has always been tacitly known to everyone in the palace, and Concubine Shen herself doesn't know." Think about it, if Concubine Shen knows about it in the future, she will definitely feel uncomfortable. If he really raised the three princes, maybe he would do something that he shouldn't do to the three princes. β
This is something that Liuli has always been worried about, to be honest, although she has become the master's person, she is still very concerned about the affairs of the third prince.
If Concubine Shen knew the truth about being favored, she didn't know what kind of thoughts she would have and what actions she would make to the three princes.
Compared with Concubine Shen, she felt that the master was more suitable, at least the master was sincere to the third prince.
"Ruri, this palace is a little relieved, because you finally told this palace what was in your heart." Su Zixu said with a smile.
After speaking, she frowned, she knew that Concubine Shen looked like the biological mother of the third prince, but it was really strange that Concubine Shen herself didn't know about it.
It stands to reason that according to Concubine Shen's position, she will definitely know about this matter, but when she heard Liuli say this, she was still kept in the dark.
There is only one possibility, that is, the emperor has tightly sealed this news.
Your Majesty, what kind of feelings does the biological mother of the three princes have for her so much?
Concubine Su, what kind of person is she? can make an emperor never forget, and he does not hesitate to spoil a woman similar to her.
"Master, slave and maid ......" Liuli said dumbly, scratching her head and not knowing what to say. didn't notice the change in Su Zixu's face.
Su Zixu came back to her senses, smiled and said nothing, Liuli, this girl, in fact, has a big temperament, and belongs to the type of straight talk. It's just that she has been suppressed in the palace for too long, and she doesn't look like herself anymore.
But what made her happy was that she poured out her heartfelt words to her today.
"Just say those words just now, just say it to this palace in the future, and at other times, you have to keep an eye on it." Su Zixu reminded.
"Master, slave and maid understand. By the way, aren't you angry, master? Ruri asked with her head lowered in embarrassment.
Su Zixu saw her crampedness and worry, she knew it in her heart, stretched her waist, and said with a smile: "You can always maintain that affection, of course this palace will not blame you, as long as the things you care about do not hurt this palace, this palace will not be angry." But if you have two hearts for Hongu, it's a different story. β
"Slave and maid, thank you for the fulfillment of your master." Liulifu thanked him, and the smile on his face stretched.
"The emperor will arrange the affairs of the three princes, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."
To put it bluntly, the whereabouts of the three princes are still decided by the emperor after all, and it is useless for them to be anxious.
"Yes, master."
Kunning Palace
"What's wrong with the Queen?" Emperor Yan asked with a smile.
Empress Liu finally came back to her senses, a trace of embarrassment flashed on her face, and she replied with a light smile: "The concubines all listen to the emperor." β
"Well, I just can't make up my mind right now, so I thought of coming over and asking for your opinion. Now that Yao'er's affairs have spread in the harem, it's time to implement this matter as soon as possible. After thinking about it carefully, I felt that Concubine Qi and Concubine Shen were the most suitable, but Concubine Qi's position was higher, and it was slightly inappropriate to raise Yao'er. Emperor Yan sighed and said.
Queen Liu replied: "Yao'er's identity is extraordinary, and it really needs to be considered. β
"Well, if you have time, you can help me think about whether the candidate I just mentioned is suitable or not. If you think about it, it's time to put this matter on the agenda. β
After Emperor Yan finished speaking, he stood up, patted his sleeve lightly, and said, "Okay, I've said almost everything I should have said, so I'll go back." β
Empress Liu also stood up and said, "The concubine will send the emperor." β
Emperor Yan waved his hand and said, "No need, you can rest." β
With that, he walked out slowly.
As soon as Emperor Yan left, Queen Liu sat down on the soft couch, her face like ashes.
The emperor was really interested in Concubine Shen. She had always thought that what she had heard in the past two days was a rumor. Unexpectedly, the emperor just confirmed to her that this was all true.
"Mother." Apricot exclaimed worriedly.
Queen Liu didn't answer for a long time, and after a while, her face showed ruthlessness, and she commanded Xing'er: "Xing'er, come here, this palace will explain some things to you." β
β¦β¦
After explaining the matter, Queen Liu looked at the back of Xing'er walking out, twisted her handkerchief viciously, and her eyes were full of coldness.
