Chapter 479: Tense and Subtle
"Did Master Hou say where he went?" Su Xi finally clapped his hands and asked Zijuan.
Zijuan shook her head: "No." ”
"Is Shen Wu in the house?"
"Yes. ”
Su Xi nodded: "Then prepare a sedan chair and let Shen Wu take someone to send me to the palace, and I will go to see Concubine Shuniang." ”
According to Zijuan's words, Su Xi hadn't visited this aunt for a long time.
Zijuan looked surprised: "Madam, do you want to go now?"
Su Xi thought it was funny: "Otherwise, why did I ask you to prepare a sedan chair?"
"But ......" Zijuan looked at Su Xi very anxiously and worriedly, what kind of information was conveyed in that eyes, what she was worried about, Su Xi understood in her heart.
Now that the relationship between the Hou Ye and the emperor is tense and delicate, and the slightest turmoil will be tense anytime and anywhere, Su Xi is now going to visit Concubine Shuniang, isn't it obvious that he is putting himself in a dangerous situation, and Concubine Shuniang will also be implicated by her?
Su Xi wanted to gamble and block the emperor's determination to deal with Jing Hao now, as well as his personal courage to do things.
If the emperor really coerced Su Xi to deal with Jing Hao, then there was no need for Jing Hao to find any evidence, this alone was enough to sweep away the emperor's only bit of the emperor's poor prestige, and no one trusted him, where could he sit on the throne safely.
And such a bet is inevitably a bit too big, because once it makes a mistake, Su Xi will become a threat to Jing Hao, not to mention, it will also cause Jing Hao to fall short.
"When everything settles down and wins, it is okay for the lady to want to see the lady concubine, but if there is any mistake at this juncture, how should the slave and maid explain to the marquis?"
Zijuan is also a smart maid, and she is very thoughtful at this time.
Su Xi is also afraid of death, especially in the face of a murderous person like the emperor, he has done a lot of things that lack morality, one more is not more, and one less is not less, who can predict what kind of measures he will take?
"Madame, don't go. Seeing Su Xi's hesitation, Zijuan added another sentence.
Su Xi thought about it, the emperor hadn't torn his face with Jing Hao yet, if Su Xi was taken hostage when he entered the palace at this time, wouldn't Jing Hao have more reason to send troops?
Besides, if the emperor really loves and pampers Concubine Shu so much, he will not listen to Concubine Shu's words, unless, he wants Concubine Shu to hate him.
The greatest weakness and the strongest point of human beings is emotionality, for the sake of one person, you will be confused and soft-hearted, so that you regret not being the first in the face of the result, for the sake of one person, you can also be full of strength, overcome all the things that you once thought were impossible to overcome.
Of course, personal ability accounts for a large proportion.
Although, Su Xi believes that Jing Hao is the latter, he is the most important woman in his life, and he will not hesitate to give everything for himself.
However, in the end, her answer to Zijuan was: "Okay, it's up to you, don't go." ”
It is enough to worry about Jing Hao in fear, if he is robbed on the way to the palace, or detained in the palace, it will be too much to lose.
No matter how much the emperor loves the concubine and tolerates her, he can be above the power, beautiful and powerful, and a person like the emperor will definitely choose power without saying a word.
Therefore, to be able to use Concubine Shuniang to catch Su Xi, and use Su Xi to control Jing Hao, reduce casualties, and also be able to completely exterminate the danger to the Seven Princes and the emperor, the emperor is not a fool.
The despicable means of the emperor have not been used less since the beginning of the struggle for the throne, and now he is becoming more and more cunning, who knows what kind of things he will do.
The Seventh Prince and the Emperor have already openly started assassinating Jing Hao, why bother being a mere lady?
Thinking of this, Su Xi shook his head violently and quickly dispelled the idea of betting.
She couldn't be more afraid of death, if there was no way, she would never use this trick to take a risk in vain.
However, the waiting time is too boring.
Zijuan also saw Su Xi's boredom and proposed: "No matter what happens at the banquet, what should be prepared for the banquet must still be prepared." ”
When Su Xi heard it, there was a door.
"The costumes for the banquet have already been prepared by the slave maid, and they are waiting for the lady to try them on. ”
Nani Suxi originally thought that she was going to go to the silk village to tailor and prepare, but who knew that Zijuan was so clever and capable, and she had already done it.
"You haven't measured my figure, how do you know if it's suitable, if it's not suitable, wouldn't it be a trouble to retreat?"
Su Xi didn't have anything to say, but in fact, he was looking for something to do for himself.
Zijuan smiled: "Madam, how did you forget, your size, how could the slave and maid not know, always keep it in mind, don't worry, you can't be wrong." ”
Su Xi couldn't wait to slap herself twice, how could she forget, Zijuan has always been Su Xi's personal maid, Su Xi's size, of course she remembers it clearly.
In order to hide his embarrassment, Su Xi said a little more seriously: "People always grow, in case I get fat, or I grow taller, won't the size of the clothes change, if you still make clothes for me according to the previous size, it will naturally be inappropriate." ”
After speaking, Su Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and finally came back to Yuan, lest he be discovered by Zijuan.
Zijuan smiled faintly, with a little surprise in his eyes: "Madam, didn't you think of these early on?" At the beginning, he also told the slave maid that he liked to wear loose clothes, and if he weighed to make it bigger, there would be no problem of not being able to wear it. ”
Su Xi really wanted to hit the wall headlong, and ask what nonsense here for no reason?
"Oh, if you don't say it, I've forgotten it myself. ”
Su Xi sneered, seemingly unhurried, turning his gaze in other directions, avoiding Zijuan's puzzled and questioning gaze.
"Ma'am, are you sure you don't feel unwell in any way?" asked Zijuan.
Su Xi was shocked, she shouldn't have noticed something.
"No, with such a good weather, I have eaten so many things, how can I be uncomfortable?" Su Xi explained, but she was weak-hearted, her eyes never looked at Zijuan, and the smile on her face was not natural enough.
Strange, when she was in front of Liu Yiyi, her calm and indifferent expression was always so natural, why was it that in addition to being indifferent in front of Jing Hao, her joy and anger were in shape, even in front of Zijuan, her cultivation seemed so bad?
"Then why does the slave think Madame is strange today? It can't be a fever?"
