Chapter 23: Suspicion (2)
"Master, the porridge is here. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Ruri walked in from the outer room and saw that the third prince was already asleep, so she lowered her voice.
I found that the queen and the others were no longer in the house, and I was a little puzzled.
"Let's put it first, the third prince is already asleep, and he will eat when he wakes up. Su Zixu also said softly.
"Your Majesty, the three princes are already asleep, and the concubines want to ask him about it, and I'm afraid it will be postponed, and the concubines want to stay and wait for the three princes to wake up, can the emperor leave alone, and wait for the concubines to ask before ......leaving."
Now that the third prince has fallen asleep, the things he wants to ask must wait for him to wake up. Su Zixu wanted to ask in front of Emperor Yan in person, but Emperor Yan had been staying for a long time and was definitely leaving, so he wanted Emperor Yan to leave a person close to him to testify.
"It's okay, I'll wait for him to wake up before leaving. Emperor Yan said. When Furen heard this, he moved a stool over, and Emperor Yan sat down.
"Yes. Su Zixu lowered her head, today's incident was beyond her expectations. She could feel Emperor Yan staring at her all the time.
Hey, Su Zixu sighed.
She didn't know what Emperor Yan would think in his heart now, and how he would doubt her. Even she herself didn't know what the third prince had been calling her mother concubine, so she didn't know how to explain it at all.
Moreover, today's Queen, Concubine Qi, and Concubine Shen were all present. Presumably, the word mother concubine called out by the third prince today will soon spread throughout the harem, and I don't know if it will be taken out by someone with a heart to make a fuss, and his life will not be peaceful in the future.
"The emperor won't wake up for a while, so sit down first. Emperor Yan commanded.
"Yes. Su Zixu replied and sat on the stool opposite Emperor Yan. Liuli stood silently next to Su Zixu.
Mama Bai was still a little relieved, she stood by the bed and looked at Su Zixu in a daze.
Obviously, the person who looks so much like the master appeared, but why is the little master still called Yue Wanrong's mother, why?
What exactly does Yue Wanrong have?
Su Zixu noticed several pairs of eyes staring at him, and he was very helpless, but he pretended not to know.
Sitting quietly like this, no one spoke, she felt that the atmosphere was strange, but she didn't know what to say.
The main thing is that Emperor Yan is sitting opposite her, which makes her feel that the atmosphere in the room is more solemn. She also looked at herself from time to time, which made her very stressed.
Time passed slowly, and Su Zixu was restless, because Emperor Yan's eyes were always on her. She was desperate for something else to break out of this awkward situation, but she didn't.
Su Zixu, who lowered his head, secretly shrank his hand into his sleeve, twisting the layer of fabric in his sleeve into a ball, not to mention how entangled he was.
Oh my God! Who will save her! If Emperor Yan stares at her again, she really won't be able to withstand this invisible pressure.
"Mother, mother...", the third prince lying on the bed cried intermittently.
Everyone looked at it in unison.
Whew, Su Zixu breathed a sigh of relief, she was finally relieved. Thanks to the Third Prince, otherwise she would really go crazy if she stayed quietly like that.
"Mother, mother..."The third prince was still screaming, looking at the past should have had a nightmare, his head kept shaking, and his hands were clutching the quilt. In the dream, he seemed to be scared, and fine sweat oozed from his forehead.
"Mother..." The third prince suddenly got up from the bed in fright, and cried loudly.
Seeing this, although Su Zixu didn't know that the third prince was still calling him, he was a little distressed and wanted to go over, but Emperor Yan didn't dare to go over.
"The third prince is good, Mama is here, don't cry or cry. Mama Bai stepped forward and comforted the third prince in her arms.
The third prince cried quietly, sniffled, his face was full of tears, and he sobbed: "Mama, is the mother concubine gone again?"
"This..."Mama Bai didn't know if the third prince was talking about Yue Wanrong.
"Mama, don't want Yao'er again. The third prince sobbed quietly.
The eyes of the third prince accidentally saw Su Zixu's figure, and the crying immediately stopped.
"Mother. The eyes of the third prince immediately lit up again.
"How do you feel, are you feeling better?" Emperor Yan was no longer as shocked as he was at the beginning when the third prince addressed Su Zixu.
There are some things that he will look into later.
Seeing Emperor Yan get up and walk to the side of the bed to ask himself, the third prince was clearly a little frightened, and retreated to the back of the bed in a cringe.
He couldn't help but look at Emperor Yan with a look of surprise.
He didn't have much impression of Emperor Yan, so he didn't understand who the person in front of him was asking him.
Emperor Yan was born with the majesty of an emperor, even if he stood there quietly, the aura on his body was still very powerful, so the third prince was a little scared.
Mama Bai didn't know why Emperor Yan suddenly stepped forward, and when Emperor Yan went to the bedside, she had already retreated to the side in panic, not knowing what Emperor Yan wanted to do.
When Emperor Yan saw the three princes like this, his heart ached. Stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the child in front of him who was deliberately abandoned by himself.
When the third prince saw Emperor Yan's movements, he stepped back even more fearfully, but a pair of eyes still looked at Emperor Yan with a grunt, wondering who Emperor Yan was.
Emperor Yan's hand hung awkwardly, and after a while, he put it down weakly, this child would be so afraid of himself.
He wanted to speak, but he was afraid that the third prince would be even more afraid of him.
I didn't know how to explain myself to the third prince.
"Third prince, come here, come to Yueniang. Su Zixu stepped forward and stretched out his hand to greet the third prince.
It's not that Su Zixu wants to go up, it's just that the situation of Emperor Yan's father and son makes her unbearable.
She heard that after the death of his biological mother, Emperor Yan did not give him more love, and it can be said that since birth, he has been equivalent to a child without a father and a mother.
These children in the harem seem to have noble status, but in fact, sometimes they live worse than ordinary children.
Especially if the biological mother is not there, or the biological mother is low and not favored, then how luxurious it is to want to get the love of the father.
In this regard, Su Zixu can be said to empathize.
Because in modern times, she is also a child abandoned by her parents, without a father or mother. Although he was later adopted by his adoptive parents, the feeling was different from that of his biological parents.
"Mother. Hearing Su Zixu's call, the third prince responded sweetly and pounced in the direction of Su Zixu.
Su Zixu hugged him in time.
With his hand around Su Zixu's neck, the third prince turned his head to look at Emperor Yan again.
"Third prince, call your father, this is your father. Su Zixu reminded him.
The third prince seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes rolled, he was entangled for a moment, shook his head and shouted, "What is the father?"
"The father is the one who loves the three princes very much. Su Zixu didn't know how to explain the meaning of his father to the third prince.
Listening to the question of the third prince, my heart was inexplicably a little sour.
"Is it like a concubine?" the third prince asked again.
"Yes. Su Zixu thought for a while and replied.
"Father. After hearing the answer, the third prince looked at Emperor Yan and shouted.
"Hmm. Emperor Yan smiled at the three princes. His heart throbbed inexplicably, he owed this child too much.
The third prince hesitated for a while and smiled at Emperor Yan.
Although it was just a faint smile, Emperor Yan was much happier when he saw this.
"Third prince, you can't call Yueniang Niang's mother again, you know?" Su Zixu touched his head, and then asked, "Is there anything uncomfortable? Are you still hungry? Do you want to eat?"
"Mother concubine..."The third prince pursed his lips aggrievedly, obviously dissatisfied with Su Zixu's correct title.
Hey, Su Zixu sighed again in his heart, what should he do with him.
"Yao'er is hungry and wants to eat. After the third prince finished speaking, his stomach rumbled.
"Wait, you can eat later, Yue Niangniang has already asked someone to help you serve porridge." "The third prince slept for almost half an hour, and the bowl of porridge was already cold. So as soon as the third prince woke up, Su Zixu motioned to Liuli to get a bowl of porridge again, and he hasn't come back yet.
"Master, the porridge is here. As soon as Su Zixu finished speaking, Liuli came back.
As soon as Su Zixu took the bowl of porridge, the third prince said, "Yao'er wants the concubine to feed her." ”
"You let go of your hand, sit down, Yue Niangniang will feed you again, okay?" Su Zixu couldn't refuse, so he asked him. After all, the third prince is still a little weak now.
"Hmm. The third prince immediately let go obediently and sat down.
Su Zixu picked up a spoon and scooped the porridge, blew it gently, and fed it to the third prince.
The third prince obediently ate the porridge that Su Zixu had fed him, and occasionally turned his head to look at Emperor Yan.
He had heard the title of Emperor before, and he had heard his eldest brother say it before, but he didn't know what it was.
Now that I know, my father is a very good person to me like my mother, and I am very happy, and I will have another person who is good to me in the future.
But he was still afraid of Emperor Yan in his heart, and he didn't dare to get close to Emperor Yan.
When the three princes were full, Su Zixu handed the bowl to Liuli, ready to ask the three princes some questions.
"Third prince, Yue Niangniang asked you, you haven't eaten anything since you had breakfast at Yue Niangniang's this morning, have you?" Su Zixu asked softly.
"Hmm. The third prince replied: "After Aunt Liuli sent Yao'er back to the palace, Yao'er's chest hurt so much, so she didn't eat anything. The third prince was afraid that Su Zixu would not believe it, so he pointed to his chest: "It's here, it hurts so much, and it's still a little uncomfortable." ”
"Yue Niangniang knows, it won't hurt in the back. Su Zixu knew that it was the third prince who hurt the most in this matter.
No matter what the purpose of the person behind it was, it was the third prince who was poisoned, and he was still a three-year-old child, so he naturally didn't understand the meaning of poisoning. can only say that it hurts, so Su Zixu feels even more sorry for him.
"Yue Niangniang wants to ask you something, you answer Yue Niangniang seriously, tell Yue Niangniang everything you know, okay?" Su Zixu asked with a smile.
"Good. The third prince responded sweetly.
"In addition to going to Yueniangniang's today, have you been in contact with anything else?" Seeing that the third prince was a little puzzled, Su Zixu continued to explain: "For example, it is different from what you usually encounter. ”
"Not the same thing. The third prince sat there and thought about it, and suddenly seemed to think of something: "Yao'er bumped into someone on the way back, is it a different thing?"
Hearing this, Liuli, who was standing on the side, suddenly remembered, and his face changed greatly.
