Chapter 245: I just don't know what to do
Besides, at the lantern festival, Mu Xiaofeng was angry and asked Leng Yue to deliberately shout "the prince kills" in the crowd.
Because the crowd basically dispersed at that time, although there was no bloodshed later, it still caused panic to a certain extent.
A good lantern festival suddenly caused panic among the people when it was close to the end.
His Royal Highness the Prince, who was already on the cusp of the storm, should have been a man with his tail between his legs during this time, but he was suddenly included in such a book, and early the next morning, he was immediately reprimanded by Emperor Chu and disgraced.
But this time, he was really dumb and ate Coptis chinensis - he couldn't tell if he was bitter.
Who let that night, his people were wearing obvious signs on the streets, and when the cry that made him suffocated and annoyed rang out, his people were engaged in fierce physical altercations with others because of their quarrels.
He really jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it away.
was reprimanded by Emperor Chu's decree, so he could only obediently retreat in the prince's mansion and think about it behind closed doors. If there is any more movement, the prince feels that the forces under him will probably be pulled out little by little by his father and the emperor.
But he was unhappy, and he was sitting in the garden where he used to be quite comfortable in the prince's mansion, which would also be so annoyed that he couldn't look at anything.
"See Your Highness for concubines." Just after the prince was in a trance, the princess walked up to him with a gentle face and blessed her body.
The prince was bored in his heart, he was both weak and cold to her, and when he looked up and saw her, he immediately wrinkled his brows and said coldly, "You? What are you doing here? ”
Didn't he tell him not to let anyone else come into the garden and disturb him without his permission?
"The concubine saw that His Royal Highness had lost his appetite recently, so she specially stewed some appetizing soup." As she spoke, the crown princess had already taken the food box from the handmaiden's hand and placed it directly on the stone table beside the prince. Then he opened the food box, and took the bowl to serve him soup.
The prince frowned, it would not be good to blow her out, so he had to be patient to watch her slowly serve the soup.
But his eyes rolled, and after all, he couldn't hide his unhappiness and said, "Leave these rough jobs to your subordinates, and you have to bother you, the crown princess, for everything, and what is the use of those subordinates." ”
These words are tantamount to indirectly accusing the crown princess of her self-deprecating status, and the good noble princess wants to steal people's jobs.
The crown princess felt cold in her heart, but she pretended to be completely incomprehensible to sarcasm, and only lowered her head slightly to concentrate on the soup. After it was served, his face showed an appropriate look of love, and he said softly, "Your Highness, please use it." ”
watched the prince take the bowl, but put it aside and didn't drink. She suppressed the coldness in her heart before she said slowly, "Of course, the subordinates can also do these jobs well, but the concubines can't replace the hearts of the concubines for His Royal Highness." ”
She sighed softly, looked at him with pity, and said softly, "Your Highness has lost weight these days. ”
"Thinking of what happened during this time, even the concubines felt that it was difficult to sleep and eat, and it was appropriate for His Highness to think more seriously." She paused, and then said distressedly, "But Your Highness must take care of your body no matter what." ”
As she spoke, she couldn't see the prince's cold and forbearant eyes, and she sat down on the stone bench next to the prince with a gentle brushing of her skirt on the floor.
"Speaking carefully, it seems that since our mansion held a wind appreciation banquet, it seems that everything has begun to go wrong in our prince's mansion."
She lowered her head, didn't look at the prince's cold face, and only said softly with hatred.
The prince's heart moved, and his eyebrows were condensed, and the color of forbearance faded.
"First the little boy was injured in an accident, and then the prisoner was shot as a beast," she raised her head slightly, and saw that the prince's face was gloomy, she secretly smiled coldly, and continued to say softly but quickly, "Then the imperial tomb was thundered, and His Royal Highness went to the imperial tomb to supervise the work on behalf of his father...... Well, His Highness was also injured by a thief. ”
She sighed, her eyebrows looking even more distressed. But the prince was extremely depressed and endured it in his heart.
"His Royal Highness is recuperating at home, but he was also involved in some private silver minting incident for no reason, and was secretly slandered again and again." Her head hung lower, and the deep sneer on the corner of her mouth was even worse, "At the Lantern Festival, His Royal Highness was even more innocent and was climbed indiscriminately, which caused his father to misunderstand and reprimand. ”
The prince was already about to stand up, but when he heard this, he sat still and forbearance.
After thinking about it, he evoked a faint smile, looked at her with pity, and said with a smile, "Jing Rong is worthy of being the crown princess of this palace, this gaze is really blazing like a torch, and many times even the palace is ashamed of itself." ”
The crown princess's heart was secretly tightened, and she warned herself that she didn't have to pay attention to his cynicism, as long as she could achieve her goal, what if she was wronged and ridiculed by him for a few cold words.
"Your Highness is too modest," the crown princess looked up at him calmly, and said lightly, "The concubine will notice this, and it is completely the work of His Highness's daily teaching." Besides, you and I are husband and wife, if Your Highness's mood is not relaxed, the concubine will naturally be depressed and uneasy. ”
"But," she rolled her eyes, her expression gentle, but the resentment in her eyes grew deeper, "I wonder if Your Highness has also noticed that all the bad things these days are actually related to one person." ”
The prince's brows tightened suddenly, and his eyes were cold and self-revealing and stared at her vigilantly, "Who?" ”
The crown princess sneered in her heart, regardless of whether he really didn't know or pretended to be confused.
She pondered for a moment, showing a hesitant and uncertain look, and said softly, "The concubine thinks that these things are all related to Mu Xiaofeng, the eldest lady of Mufu. ”
For other things, she didn't know if it was related to Mu Xiaofeng. But the matter of her brother Hu Yifan, she has found out that it has nothing to do with Mu Xiaofeng. It doesn't matter if the rest of the matter is relevant or not, that's enough.
remembered that at the beginning, she also tried her best to help the prince want to envelop Mu Xiaofeng's woman. Thinking of this, she felt a pang of hatred in her heart.
If she had persuaded the prince to kill Mu Xiaofeng's woman from the beginning, maybe her brother would still be alive today.
The prince frowned and looked at her suspiciously for a long time.
I doubted her motive for saying these words to him, but I had to admit in my heart that the crown princess was right.
Moreover, at this time, the prince also remembered the words of his mother at the beginning.
Thinking of a character like his mother, he would be jealous of Mu Xiaofeng as a little woman, and let him directly solve Mu Xiaofeng's affairs in the simplest way.
From this point of view, Mu Xiaofeng does have some outstanding points.
After thinking about it, he looked at the crown princess and said tentatively quietly, "She? It's just a little girl raised in the boudoir, with such great ability? ”
The crown princess sneered in her heart, knowing that he suspected her intentions, and this would not be exposed. Anyway, she has finished saying this today, and it doesn't matter whether the prince believes it or not.
In fact, she didn't believe that the prince didn't know how powerful Mu Xiaofeng was that woman, otherwise she wouldn't have asked her to help come up with an idea to entrap that woman.
Sloppy with her?
She didn't believe that the prince would be able to sit still in the mansion in the future.
"All this is just speculation on the concubine," she said, standing up, "if the prince thinks it is unreliable, let it be the concubine's nonsense." ”
She blessed the prince, then turned and walked out of the garden without looking back.
Not long after the crown princess left, Concubine Lu also came outside the garden. However, unlike the crown princess's sudden and forceful intrusion, she stood outside and asked people to give the prince permission before entering the garden.
The crown princess was dignified and reserved, while Concubine Lu was delicate and soft, and when she entered the garden, she saw the prince's heart full of sorrow.
He first looked at him with loving eyes, and then said softly and softly, full of distress, "Your Highness has been a lot haggard during this time, and it is not easy to see the concubine in her heart." ”
Since the crown princess broke through the study with a sword, the prince has been estranged from the princess intentionally or unintentionally, and an indelible crack has been branded in his heart.
The prince was estranged from the crown princess, and when he was depressed, he got closer to the empathetic Concubine Lu. Concubine Lu was not only obedient to him in everything, but also gave birth to his only current heir.
And, most of all, he felt that women didn't need to be too smart. Like Concubine Lu, who is centered on him in everything, relies on him and relies on him, such a woman is more worthy of pity.
As soon as the prince heard her say this, his face softened at the moment, and he said softly, "This palace has a bad appetite recently, don't worry about it." ”
Concubine Lu then laughed coquettishly, her eyes fell on the soup bowl on the stone table that had not been taken away, and she turned around, and said softly, "The crown princess came here just now, alas, it's really embarrassing for her, her mother's brother has just had an accident, and she should still be sad in her heart." ”
The prince's face immediately sank.
Concubine Lu covered the light in her eyes, but as if she didn't notice, she continued to whisper, "But now that I see her like this, I still value His Highness the most in my heart, otherwise I wouldn't care about His Highness's appetite from time to time, and I also personally cooked and stewed an appetizer soup and sent it." ”
As soon as these words fell, she heard the prince snort lowly.
I was secretly happy in my heart, and decided to make persistent efforts to give the prince some eye medicine.
"But when it comes to her mother's brother, it can be regarded as Your Majesty's extrajudicial grace." Concubine Lu quietly looked at the prince's face, and when she saw that he was stunned under the coldness, her eyes immediately showed her approval, and she continued, "If Your Majesty hadn't thought that he was the brother of the crown princess, how could she only pursue her brother for such a crime. ”
The prince thought deeply in his heart, and at the same time secretly mocked that Hu Jingrong was the crown princess in vain, and this was not as good as Concubine Lu to see it thoroughly.
Do you still want to provoke and instigate him to come forward to avenge Hu Yifan? I just don't know what to do.
If you really investigate it, you want to avenge Hu Yifan, will this revenge be avenged on him in the end?
Concubine Lu looked at his uncertain face, rolled her eyes, showed a hesitant expression, and said softly, "There is something that the concubine should not have said in front of His Royal Highness at this time, but the concubine thought about it and felt that it was about the reputation of the crown princess. ”
"It's better to let His Highness deal with it best, in case someone who doesn't know the inside story chews on the root of his tongue, it will not be good for our entire Prince's Mansion."
