776, Say You Like Me (28)
Seven days have passed in the blink of an eye, and these seven days have been the most comfortable days since Ruoyi returned. I recognized my grandfather, and my grandfather was on top of everything, she slept until she woke up naturally, ate delicious food until her stomach was bloated, and she was so lazy that she was sideless.
"Ouch, eldest princess......" Aunt Zhu saw that Ruoyi was about to lie down on the couch with a yawn, and hurriedly came over to stop her, "Eldest princess, you can't lie down all day." Ruoyi yawned again, and looked at Aunt Zhu helplessly: "But people are boring." ”
Grandfather didn't let her go out, Aunt Zhu took her grandfather's words as an arrow, she has been detained at home for seven days, and if she continues to be detained, she must be idle to grow mushrooms.
Aunt Zhu coaxed her softly: "Why don't you go for a walk in the garden, or take the green grapefruit and them to the water pavilion to fish, or the old slave tells a story to the eldest princess?"
"I want to go out. Joe blinked.
Aunt Zhu immediately shook her head: "No." ”
In the past few days, the eldest princess has eaten a lot and slept soundly, and the growth speed of the little princess is obviously faster, and no matter how loose the dress is, it can't cover the eldest princess's belly. Aunt Liang is now beating the people in the courtyard for two meals a day, for fear that someone will accidentally spread the word. If the eldest princess goes out of the mansion, then there must be rumors flying all over the sky.
Ruo Yi pouted, twisted her body, and turned her back to Aunt Zhu.
Qingyu took a pillow and put it behind her, making her more comfortable, and persuaded softly: "Why don't you send a post to the General's Mansion, and ask Miss Su Si to come over to accompany the eldest princess." ”
Ruoyi was happy when she heard it: "Okay, Aunt Zhu, you go and pick up the fourth sister in person...... Four girls. ”
Aunt Zhu was stunned for a moment and didn't speak, Ruoyi looked at it and was not very happy: "Auntie, no, this will not work." ”
Aunt Zhu was annoyed, and hurriedly shook her head and explained: "It's not that the old slave is unwilling to make such a trip, the old slave is just afraid that he won't be able to pick up Miss Su Si." "The eldest princess has sent letters to the four girls in the past few days, and the four girls have also returned in time, but she has been using the excuse of embroidering the dowry, and she has not let go of the house.
The eldest princess couldn't hear that this was the fourth girl's excuse, but she knew it. If there was no state funeral, the four girls would have been married a long time ago, how could the dowry not be prepared until now? I am afraid that the four girls will not want to have more complications before the situation is resolved, so they will use this simplest reason to perfunctory the eldest princess.
Ruoyi looked at Aunt Zhu's worried look and pouted, "Even if my aunt goes, I won't blame you for not being able to pick up the fourth sister." ”
Aunt Zhu couldn't shirk it anymore, so she had to say, "Okay, then the old slave will run." ”
Ruoyi struck while the iron was hot, and immediately ordered a girl to inform the stable to prepare the car.
After a while, the girl came back and reported: "Back to the eldest princess, the horses in the house are sick, their legs and feet are weak, and the housekeeper is asking someone to feed the medicine." ”
"Horses get sick too?" Ruoyi was really interested, her eyes shining, "I'll take a look." ”
Aunt Zhu really couldn't persuade her, so she had to accompany Ruoyi to the stable.
When they reached the outside of the stable, Ruoyi stopped. Aunt Zhu hurriedly persuaded: "Eldest princess, is it a big taste, the old slave has already said that the stables are dirty here, not where you came." ”
Ruoyi tugged at Aunt Zhu's sleeve and whispered, "I smell a lot of croton." ”
Aunt Zhu sighed in her heart, it seems that this horse is not simple.
"Let's go back. Aunt Zhu persuaded again.
This time Ruoyi obeyed, and obediently turned around and went back to the yard.
Back in the house, Aunt Zhu whispered a few words to Pomegranate while no one was prepared. Pomegranate went out for a while, and came back, still with Aunt Liang. "Princess Hui, as Aunt Zhu expected, it was the person in charge of the stable who fed the horses with croton. ”
"Why?" Ruoyi was puzzled, so he fed the horse croton?
Aunt Liang hurriedly reminded: "Shhh, the eldest princess is quiet." ”
Ruoyi calmed down and thought for a while, then frowned: "Someone in the house eats inside and out?"
What she hates most is being betrayed!
If it's true that the people in the stable are double-minded, then ...... She won't leave any of those people behind.
Aunt Liang and Aunt Zhu exchanged glances before saying, "Eldest princess, this matter is not simple, I'm afraid it's not a matter of a few minions having two hearts." If the old slave didn't guess wrong, this was someone who wanted to cut off the eldest princess's connection with the outside world. ”
She carefully sifted the people in the house several times, and eliminated some people who had two hearts. Although the rest of the people can't make people loyal for a while, they can at least distinguish between the important and the important.
After entering the eldest princess's mansion, the lord was honored and the servant was glorious, and the lord and servant died, and they had no second way to go. Knowing this result, and still doing this kind of betrayal of the master, if the temptation is not too great, it is the person who gave them the order, so that they are so afraid that they dare not refuse.
Now that I think about it, those people in the house are too perfect, especially on the procurement side. The eldest princess loves food and has a temperament like a child, and occasionally makes all kinds of strange requests when her head is hot, and even the imperial dining room may not be able to prepare all those ingredients, but the procurement is prepared every day.
If it weren't for the eldest princess's whim to go to the stables and find out about the croton, I'm afraid she wouldn't have found out about these things.
And so much more!
She was able to spend decades peacefully in the deep palace, and finally became a celebrity next to the Queen Mother, relying on this thoughtfulness.
Although Ruo Yi said that she was annoyed, she was not impulsive: "What did Aunt Liang think of?"
Aunt Liang entered the back room, took out all the letters that the eldest princess had received recently, and checked them several times, then sighed and presented the letters to Ruoyi: "Sure enough, the old slave guessed correctly, I am afraid that these letters are all forged." ”
"Fake?" Ruoyi laughed angrily.
Aunt Liang said: "The fourth girl repeatedly refused the invitation of the eldest princess, and the old slave felt that something was wrong, and it stands to reason that the fourth girl would not be so hypocritical." Also, on the eldest princess and Princess Rong's side, although they also sent letters every once in a while, the things that came with the letters were too regular. Although the old slave was a little confused before, he didn't think much about it, but now that this happened, the old slave felt that something was wrong. ”
Ruoyi picked up a letter and folded it open, but she couldn't see anything, and she couldn't even make out the handwriting, but she came to the letter to Aunt Liang: "These letters are fake?"
Aunt Liang glanced at the letter in Ruoyi's hand and said, "Let's take the letter sent by the fourth girl recently, the handwriting on the words is almost exactly the same as the fourth girl's, and the old slave can't tell the truth from the fake." But the problem is that the content of the letter has been the same for several days. The fourth girl cares about the eldest princess all the time, but she also knows the eldest princess's temperament very well, and she will never repeat the words again and again. ”
She was too careless before, and she didn't see this.
She flipped out the eldest princess's letter again: "This handwriting is indeed a substitute for jasper, and the tone is right, but the focus of concern is wrong, the eldest princess will never remind you what to eat, only what not to eat." ”
Ruoyi listened to Aunt Zhu's letter explanation one by one, her heart sank little by little, and as soon as she let go of her hand, a thick handful of rice paper fell to the ground like a snowflake.
Aunt Liang stepped forward and said in a very low voice: "I'm only afraid of the old general and the eldest princess, and they can't help it." ”
Ruoyi sat on the couch and didn't say a word for a long time.
She understood that Aunt Liang's guess was most likely right. Each of her letters was sent by Pomegranate personally, and it was also handed over to the other party's trustworthy subordinates, Pomegranate would not betray, but the descendants around her grandfather, the eldest princess, may not. Besides, they couldn't get her letter, so they should come and see her in person every once in a while.
Seeing that Ruoyi was a little unusually quiet, the two aunts were anxious: "Eldest princess." ”
Ruoyi waved his hand: "Don't worry, I won't be impulsive." ”
This incident was linked to the disappearance of Tuoba Song before, and she could vaguely guess who had done it to her.
Big brother, you are so ruthless!
One move is a ruthless move, don't you really want to recognize me?
"Why don't you let Tuanzi go out and take a look at the situation?" Aunt Zhu proposed.
Ruoyi shook his head, "The dumplings are out, and they are also meat buns beating dogs." ”
If the eldest brother really does it, even if it is a dumpling, he may not be able to send the letter.
Aunt Liang wanted to persuade her, but looking at Ruoyi's serious face, she turned around again when the words reached the tip of her tongue, "Then what should we do next?"
"Don't know. Ruoyi smiled, and the gorgeous smile and the clear eyes of her almost made everyone in the room hold their breath.
Ruoyi's calm, but the people in the palace are not calm.
When the night fell, Ruoyi excused herself to be tired, freshened up early and went to bed, leaving Qingyu to keep vigil.
Ruoyi nodded the nose of the dumpling, "You help Qingyu guard the house, and if you find someone approaching, you're welcome." ”
The ball screamed coquettishly and raised its little paws that shimmered with cold light. Don't have it, Uncle Meow is here, no one wants to hurt the master, and it's still anxious to bring the black guy over after these things are resolved.
Ruoyi lowered the curtain, and the heartless smile on her face fell.
She didn't expect that the biggest stumbling block would be the eldest brother, it was her own eldest brother, how could she do this to her!
Even if he loses his memory and forgets her, he will at least have to listen to her for a few words.
After adjusting his mind, Ruoyi drew a witch pattern in the void, and silently recited a spell in his mouth.
Tuoba Song, who was dizzy and unconscious in the palace, had a pain in his head and immediately came to his senses. There is no excessive movement.
"Awake?" said Ruoyi.
Tuoba Song heard the voice in his head, his whole body trembled, not frightened, but happy, he didn't make a stupid sound, and responded with thoughts in his mind: "Holy Lord, did you save me?"
Ruoyi didn't have the heart to talk nonsense with him: "Where are you now?"
Tuoba Song quickly swept the surrounding environment, there was no light in the room, the windows were closed tightly, and the black black man couldn't see anything, and he crawled on the table and dozed off.
He didn't move, and he didn't recklessly look at it with witchcraft. was restrained by Zhao Shuhan, and he understood that he was not Zhao Shuhan's opponent at all, and using witchcraft would only expose himself and even more affect the Holy Lord.
He made sure that the people in the room were asleep, so he quietly got out of bed and got closer, only to find that the person who climbed on the table was one of the guards who had followed him down from the holy mountain.
He lit the guard's sleeping hole, walked to the window, poked through the corner of the window paper, and put his eyes on it to look out.
Outside the door, there are two people, ten steps and one post, and the guards are very tight. He recognized the guards by the moonlight, and immediately answered Ruoyi's question: "I may be in the palace, and the palace guards are guarding outside the house." Wait, they're talking. ”
It is estimated that the guards were too bored in the middle of the night, and the two guards next to the window couldn't help but want to say something to spend this long night. Their voices were small, but with the power of Tuoba Song, they could hear every sentence clearly.
"Brother, is there something wrong, don't mention this in this house, I also heard from the people in the palace that the emperor detained the eldest princess and Princess Rong, as well as the third princess of Bi Guifei and took them hostage. ”
"Shut up, are these things we can discuss?"
"Brother, it's not just us brothers, I just said, I just thought, if something really happens, our brothers take this opportunity to behave in front of the emperor and fight for a future......"
"If you have this heart, you should see more and do more, and speak less......" The elder brother began his long receptive words.
The younger brother grinned and coped with two sentences, and did not mention anything about the palace again.
Tuoba Song told Joe what he had heard, word for word.
Ruoyi's chest tightened when she heard this, and she knew it in her heart, but she was afraid that the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother had joined forces.
They knew everything, but they didn't believe her.
Maybe it's not that they don't want to believe her, but they haven't figured out how to solve this matter, preemptively take everything into their own hands, and then slowly think about making a decision. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had to do so much to perfunctory her.
What to do, wait for them to think it through and make a decision, or will she just rush in front of them and force them to make a decision right away?
Ruoyi couldn't make up her mind.
"Holy Lord!" Tuoba Song, who had not been able to wait for Ruoyi's answer for a long time, was a little anxious.
Ruoyi replied, "You stay for now, and wait for me to contact you." ”
Retracting his magic power, Ruo Yi looked at the Luo tent of the Hundred Butterfly Lake on the top, and was a little distracted.
"Ruoi!" Tsukizakura exclaimed, waking Ruoi awake.
Only then did she realize that she had burst into tears unconsciously. She quickly grabbed the pillow towel and wiped the tears from her face, and responded, "Teacher?"
"It's me. Yue Ying pinched her heart just now, and with one hand, most of the medicine she had just prepared spilled out. The only person who can affect her mind like this is Ruoyi, she didn't have the heart to get any more potions, so she just threw away everything and forcibly contacted Ruoyi.
"Teacher, how are you now?" Ruoyi asked first.
"It's been a few days since I came out of that damn place. Tsukizakura said lightly. In fact, when she mentioned this, she couldn't wait to pick up her wand and whip Ruoyi dozens of times.
At that time, Ruoyi's agreement with those shrine maidens was just to enter the forbidden place, and it was not necessary to solve the witch curse. If Ruoyi hadn't made a pact with the evil guardian witch, she would have been able to come out of the forbidden land safely.
Thirteen dangers are just a few dangers, with Ruoyi's strength and the black guy's guidance, what's not to do. After coming out, there is a spell, there is magic power, restart and open a channel, isn't there nothing?
Even if she may have a good one, she knows that if Yi is safe, she will be willing to lose her soul, which is better than being so worried and restless like she is now.
