It was late at night, Qi Herui, who was resting in Aunt Qian's yard, couldn't fall asleep over and over, and after turning off the lights for an hour, Qi Herui quietly got up and walked out of the house.
Aunt Qian, who had not been able to fall asleep, approved a dress and went out, and Qi Herui stood under the eaves, looking at the direction of Siyi Courtyard.
"Sir."
"Why are there no lights over there?" Qi Herui looked at Siyi Courtyard, where it was all dark, even if he slept on weekdays, the corridor light was on, and there was some light when he couldn't see it.
"The concubine heard that the people serving in Siyi Courtyard were all transferred by Madame."
Qi Herui turned his head to look at her and turned away? He hadn't heard her mention it before in the Splendid Garden.
"Lilac and Jade are already old, and after paying the ransom, Mrs. allowed them to leave the house, and Mother Han was transferred to Mrs. Aunt Qian observed the old man's expression from time to time, and said carefully and slowly, "Five...... There weren't many people serving there in Siyiyuan, and the rest were all distributed. ”
"So fast." Qi Herui frowned slightly, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
Aunt Qian thought that he was sad that the identity of the fifth girl was suddenly exposed, after all, she was a father and daughter for several years, and she always had some feelings, so she comforted softly: "Although the fifth girl left early, the master still has these children, the third girl is very filial to the master, and the sixth girl often comes back to see you." ”
Don't mention it, when it comes to Qi Minlan, Qi Herui's expression becomes a little flickering, he is a filial daughter, but he has never come back since that day.
At this time, in the Yueyang Palace, except for the lights in the corridor and the courtyard pavilion, it seemed very quiet everywhere, and in the fragrant garden in the southwest, the main house with a dark light for a long time opened the door softly, and after opening the door, someone leaned out after half a ring, and looked around the main house, and after retracting for a while, someone came out of the house.
"Girl, it's late." Mingcui carefully reminded Qi Minlan that when she went out at this hour, it was almost curfew outside.
"I know, is the carriage ready?" Qi Minlan packed up her clothes, this simple outfit didn't look like she looked like she usually looked like when she went out, and she didn't even wear the jewelry she loved on weekdays.
"Ready." A touch of worry flashed on Mingcui's face, she was still not at ease, what if the old lady found out, she had recently made the old lady unhappy because of the Qi family's affairs, so the girl was not allowed to go out of the house.
"It's fine." Qi Minlan walked around the corridor and walked to the back of the Fragrance Garden, from here there is a door to go directly to the backyard of the palace, hidden and fast.
Because of the uproar in the city, the old lady ordered her not to go out, she has been staying in the palace since the day she came back from the Qi Mansion, but she can't wait any longer, she must go out of the mansion, otherwise when the second uncle comes back, things will change again.
Mingcui wanted to speak and stopped, so she had to follow Qi Minlan, and the two of them followed the path to avoid the crowded place, and when they were about to reach the backyard, a gust of wind suddenly blew on weekdays, and they still felt very cold in the February night.
Qi Minlan looked towards the small door, only Mingcui was more sensitive, and when she was about to reach the back door, the lights suddenly lit up in the dark backyard corridor, shining like day.
Ming Cui, who had been nervous, stopped suddenly, her face was sallow, Qi Minlan's reaction was a little slower, and she was bent on going out, until she saw the old lady Ming who came out of the back of the corridor, she woke up, so many people hid in the dark and didn't let people find out, they were waiting for her here on purpose!
Qi Minlan's reaction was also extremely fast, and in an instant, a smile appeared on her face, and she looked at Old Madam Ming and said in a respectful tone: "Mother." ”
"It's so late, where are you going?"
"If it's a little boring, I'll go out for a walk."
Mrs. Ming glanced at her dress, this really made the people in the yard stupid, she looked at the mother-in-law next to the back door, the latter immediately opened the door, and the sound of horses came in the quiet alley, and soon two domestic servants walked in with a coachman, and pushed hard, and the coachman knelt directly in front of Qi Minlan, and her body couldn't help but straighten up.
"Dressed up like this in the middle of the night to go out, what are you going to do behind the prince's back."
Qi Minlan calmed down quickly: "Mother, your daughter-in-law can't afford such a heavy sin." ”
"If you can't bear it, you know it in your heart." Mrs. Ming was straight-tempered, and her words were direct, "If you have that ability, don't get involved in the palace, put aside your identity to solve personal grievances, and leave the palace, no one will stop you from doing anything." ”
Qi Minlan's face was a little unbearable when she mentioned this matter so bluntly, what did she do, all this she did was just to eliminate harm for Qi Mansion, and she was allowed to make a mess of her and her aunt's life by someone of unknown origin, and she was not allowed to expose her identity? People like her should not have been kept a long time ago.
"As the princess of Yueyang Palace, you can't tell which is more important than the other, do you really think that no one knows what these people are doing?"
"Mother, why are you so angry for an outsider, I didn't do anything to be sorry for the palace, let alone ......"
"Outsiders?" Old Madam Ming snorted, "Do you know who was sitting in the carriage you crashed into that day?" ”
Isn't it just sitting on the prince of Yu, the person who is difficult to protect himself at the moment, he has not appeared since Qi Xiangsi was arrested and taken to the criminal department, let alone protecting her, those previous speculations were just illusions, how could the royal people look at such a cheap girl.
"Stupid!" Seeing her look, Mrs. Ming scolded sharply, "At that time, there was still the Eighth Prince sitting in the car!" ”
Qi Minlan was stunned for a moment, and soon she had an impression of this Eighth Prince, and gradually, her face began to fade, but she still held on, what happened to the Eighth Prince, and the prince who lived in the palace had something to do with her.
"Stubborn." Mrs. Ming raised her hand, and the two mothers-in-law behind her walked towards Qi Minlan, and took her without waiting for her to resist, how could Qi Minlan be treated like this by a princess, she was a little angry, "Mother, what do you mean by this, I know that you have never liked me, but since I married into the palace, you have served you and the prince with all your heart, and treated the two children as if they were your own, even if they were stubborn stones, why do you still treat me like this!" ”
"You're doing your best." Mrs. Ming has never seen any scenes in her life, how can she be affected by her appearance, "It's a pity that my wife is not blind yet, and it is not your turn to cover the sky with one hand in this palace." ”
She couldn't say good or bad things, and Qi Minlan, who was bent on that incident, couldn't hide her anger in her eyes, but before she could say anything, according to Mrs. Ming's instructions, the two mothers-in-law vigorously carried her out of the backyard and wanted to send her back to the Fragrance Garden.
"Send someone to keep an eye on her, and don't let her step out of the room."
......
In the fragrant garden of Yueyang Palace, the lights of the main house are slightly on, and Qi Minlan, who should have rested early, handed over a letter and a bag that had just been written in his hand to Mingcui, and repeatedly instructed: "You send it over at dawn, and after handing it to him, you will come back tomorrow morning after buying lotus root flour cake in the guest house." ”
Mingcui put the letter and the bag into the inner layer of clothes, and then put them on carefully until she couldn't see them outside, but she was still a little worried that she wouldn't be able to get out of the palace: "Girl, the old lady sent someone to watch, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to get out of the fragrant garden." ”
"No, it won't." Qi Minlan squinted slightly, "You just said to go shopping, they have to follow, and you go out through the back door after you get to the guest house." ”
"Girl, don't wait any longer, if the old lady finds out......" Mingcui said to the old lady of Shicai vividly, the prince is not wrong to love the girl, but now the old lady is still in charge of the house, and if these things are spread, the prince may not be able to protect the girl.
"Mingcui, when did you start to hesitate to do something." Qi Minlan glanced at her, a touch of coldness flashed in her smiling eyes, Mingcui's body trembled slightly, and she immediately knelt on the ground, "Girl, I didn't mean that." ”
"The second uncle will be back soon." Qi Minlan knelt on the ground when she heard the sound, and the hand on the armchair moved, falling under her sight, as if admiring the red cocoon that had just been painted yesterday.
How could she be allowed to come out of the prison that she had finally entered, even if she wanted to leave, it would have to be covered with a white cloth and carried by the two of them.
"The slave is worried, worried that the old lady will tell the prince if she knows about it, and she is afraid that the prince will have a grudge against you."
Qi Minlan's expression became ruthless for a moment, that old thing, sooner or later, there will be a time to clean her up: "You do what I tell you, I have my own way there." ”
Mingcui wanted to speak and stopped, and finally obediently agreed, got up and blew the lamp, and covered the door lightly and went out, the night outside the house was quiet and there was no wind, Mingcui closed the cuffs, and the two mothers-in-law guarding the door looked serious, lowered their heads and hurried towards the back room.
......
The next day, Mingcui left the house before dawn, she carefully went all the way to the guest house, left from the back door and went to Zhenshui Temple, until she passed the news back to the palace, and completed Qi Minlan's explanation without danger.
"Okay, okay." Qi Minlan said three good words in a row, wearing the clothes from last night, she stood up excitedly and paced back and forth in the house, "This time, this time I'll see how she escapes!" ”
Mingcui's body trembled, the girl took this step, if something went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable, fortunately, fortunately, the thing was delivered.
As everyone knows, the letter and the bag returned to the palace at this time and were placed in front of Mrs. Ming's eyes.
There is a medicinal powder wrapped in yellow paper hidden in the bag, and the pink and white color can't tell what it is, but after reading the letter, Mrs. Ming's originally calm expression rippled, if she didn't have more eyes, this palace would be destroyed in her hands.
"Old lady, the prince will be back in half a month." The mother on the side reminded Mrs. Ming that she was afraid that she would have to play a bitter drama again.
"Good time!" Mrs. Ming said loudly, "This time, let him see with his own eyes what a stupid wife he married, and he wants to pull the Ming family into a catastrophe!" 166 Reading Network
