Chapter 149: Crazy Ambition

Princess Liu naturally heard these rumors, and at this time she was so angry that she wiped her forehead and lay on the Luohan bed and closed her eyes and said nothing.

As the old saying goes, a mountain looks at the mountain high. At first, she tried her best to climb to the position of the princess, half to save her own life and her son's life, and half to take revenge on the prince's indiscriminate unkindness. It's a pity that after seeing her son grow up so well, her ambition grew like a weed moistened by the spring rain.

is also the bloodline of the Murong family, why can that sick ghost prince inherit the entire Great Qi, but his son wants to be a prince without any real power? If her son sits on the throne of the emperor and she enters the Shou'an Palace again, won't the whole world be in the hands of their mother and son...

The ideal is beautiful, but unfortunately the reality is often cruel. The weeds in her heart have grown as tall as clouds, but her son just refuses to cooperate. On weekdays, I don't want to enter the palace to please the queen mother and the emperor, why has the great Confucian who is too learned to leak his mouth and intends to accept him as a disciple, but he turns a deaf ear? Could it be that if you squat in the courtyard all day long and fiddle with the vegetable field, the vegetable field will grow rich and rich, and grow thousands of miles of rivers and mountains?

Liu Xiaozhen snickered at her aunt while stirring the lotus seed porridge in her hand, and sneered in her heart. But her mouth was delicately comforting, "Auntie, don't be angry with your cousin, okay?" Get up and drink some lotus seed porridge, if you get angry, my cousin will be even more upset..."

"If he is afraid that I will be sad, he should enter Taixue, and he should often go to the palace to ask for peace!" Princess Liu suddenly opened her eyes and said angrily, "This unfilial son, I have worked hard for him for twenty years, and it is not easy to get to where I am today." I didn't expect him to know how to cherish it, I might as well have known this..."

"What's not as good as that?" Murong Huaide walked in around the screen, although there was a smile on his face, his eyes were full of coldness.

Princess Liu didn't like her son's appearance the most, and immediately rushed to the top beam door in anger, and she grabbed the porridge bowl in her niece's hand and smashed it.

"It's better to let you be killed in the first place, it's better than being angry with your mother now!"

Murong Huaide flashed lightly, and it was very easy to avoid the porridge bowl, and finally he found a brocade stool and sat down.

Princess Liu was even more angry, and was about to open her mouth to scold again, but Liu Xiaozhen had already hugged her arm and cried and persuaded, "Auntie, you can dissipate your anger, cousin Xu is also suffering." After speaking, she looked at Murong Huaide timidly and pleaded softly, "Cousin, aunt... My aunt hadn't eaten for a day. Just say something soft, okay? ”

She is already delicate, and she begged with tears on her face, as if pear blossoms were carrying rain, which was extremely pitiful. When any man saw her, he couldn't wait to take her in his arms and cherish her.

It's a pity that Murong Huaide is that exception. He only glanced at Liu Xiaozhen lightly and then opened his mouth, "You go out, I have something to say to my mother." ”

"Uh," Yoo Hyo-jung was stunned for a moment, then choked up as if she was trying her best, "Yes, cousin." ”

Princess Liu looked at her niece who ran out with her face covered, and was even more annoyed in her heart, and scolded, "Qiu'er, Zhen'er is your cousin, how can you treat her so coldly?" She's so weak that she doesn't know how long she's going to cry when she goes back like this..."

"Weak?" Murong Huaide stretched out his hand to pour a cup of tea for himself, and said mockingly, "Mother concubine is sure that she really saw through this niece?" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Princess Liu frowned when she heard this, sat up straight and asked, "Could it be that your cousin has disliked you?" ”

Murong Huaide raised his eyebrows, but he didn't say anything in response. Although he asked himself if he was a gentleman, he couldn't do anything to talk about the length of a woman behind his back.

Seeing this, Princess Liu thought that her son had really misunderstood her niece, so she comforted her bitterly, "Qiu'er, you have not been in Kyoto since you were a child, and you have never walked around with your mother's mother's house, so it is understandable that you are not familiar with Zhen'er. But Zhen'er is indeed a good girl, filial piety and kindness, it is rare to be knowledgeable, you will inherit the prince in the future, isn't it good to have her take care of the backyard of the palace for you? ”

"My mother wants me to marry her as a princess, does she just want her to help me take care of the backyard?" Murong Huaide raised his eyes to look at his mother and asked seriously.

Princess Liu paused, and finally replied vaguely, "Of course, the Liu family is a scholarly family for generations, and it has something to do with the six departments of the court. If you marry Zhen'er, these... Nature will work for you. ”

"And then? What should you do after you have gathered the officials of the six ministries and enter the East Palace? ”

Princess Liu didn't expect her son to break her ambition so lightly, so she was so shocked that she hurriedly looked around, and finally scolded in a low voice, "Don't whisper, can you say this outward?" ”

"Since the mother concubine has already calculated like this, why don't you dare to say it?" Murong Huaide suddenly put the teacup on the coffee table and sneered, "Did the mother ever think that when you entered the palace to propose marriage, why did the imperial uncle refuse to respond under the pretext that his father was ill?" Could it be that the imperial uncle can't see what the mother concubine can think of? If I don't mess around all day long, will you be so "pampered" by the emperor's uncle?

Mother, you should really think about it. For so many years, my brothers and sisters who went to report to the Netherworld Mansion really succeeded in your single-handedly scheme, and I don't know how many times the palace has helped you in secret. If you don't know how to restrain yourself, maybe when your father returns to heaven, you will be sent to the funeral by the three-foot white silk! ”

After Murong Huaide finished speaking, he got up and walked out, leaving Princess Liu, who was speechless by her son's questioning, not coming back to her senses for a long time. After a long time, she wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with trembling fingers, and whispered, "Am I wrong, I'm all for your good..."

Under the eaves outside the window, Murong Huaide moved his ears slightly, and when he looked up at the night sky again, the expression on his face finally eased. Fang Cai's words may have been a little heavy, but he had to say this. After all, it was his mother who gave him life and worked hard to get to where he is now, how could he watch her go all the way wrong? As long as she extinguishes her ambitions and does not interfere with how she arranges the rest of her life, then he will be a good son with the most filial piety.

And his hard-mouthed and soft-hearted little wife, since she can forgive and treat Mrs. Cao well, she must also honor her genuine mother-in-law with him...

Yoo Hyo-jeong's eyes slowly wandered over her crimson nails, and her mind seemed to be completely unfocused, and she had flown to an unknown place.

But Hongyu still knelt down in a proper manner, and whispered the news of the inquiry, "The princess and the prince talked about tea in the house, and the people in the courtyard were pushed away, so no one knew what they said." However, the little maid who came into the house to serve said that the princess had gone to bed early and had not even eaten dinner. ”

Liu Xiaozhen frowned slightly, and said lightly, "I know, continue to pay attention to the news of the main courtyard." If something is missing, watch out for your skin! ”

"Yes, miss." Hongyu fell to the ground in fear and replied respectfully.

Liu Xiaozhen snorted coldly, then remembered something and asked, "The letter to my mother was sent over, what did my mother say?" ”

Hongyu hurriedly responded, "The slave took the opportunity to go out to buy embroidery thread, and sent the letter back a long time ago. Mama Shen said that Madame wanted Miss to rest assured that she had her own arrangements. ”

"That's good," Yoo Hyo-jeong remembered the wolf when she was kicked out of her aunt's bedroom earlier, and pulled Hongyu's bun with hatred.

"Hmph, you just repair the yard. It's just that the people in the courtyard will be loyal to me at that time. You don't want to escape from my hands! ”

Ruby's scalp tingled with pain, but she clutched the carpet with both hands and didn't dare to scream. God may also pity this little maid who has been treated harshly since childhood, and at this time, someone shouted outside the house, "Is Miss Zhen'er asleep, the old slave has sent you a post?" ”

Liu Xiaozhen was taken aback, and immediately motioned for the unkempt red jade to hide behind the screen, and then smiled at the end, "Is Mama Shu here, please come in." ”

As soon as her words fell, an old woman wearing a pine-colored brocade gown walked in, and it was the old lady who had been waiting by Princess Liu's side. She stepped forward to salute Yoo Hyo-jeong and asked with a smile, "Why is Miss Zhen'er's room so deserted?" Where is the maid who waits? ”

Liu Xiaozhen smiled and returned the half-salute, and helped her sit on the brocade stool next to the bed before responding, "Hongyu is a little uncomfortable today, I let her go to sleep first." ”

"Oh, my young lady, you are so beautiful and kind-hearted, and you are so good to treat a maid. Who will marry you in the future, how many lifetimes of merit have you accumulated? The old lady praised one after another, consciously pleasing her master, but Liu Xiaozhen was extremely tired of listening to it. But she pretended to be shy on her face, and quickly said, "It's so late, why is Mama still going this way?" If you have something, just tell the little maid to say it. ”

The old lady was comfortable when she heard this, and responded, "As soon as the mother fell asleep, the old slave came out for a walk when she had nothing to do." Besides, Miss's affairs are not sloppy, and I don't worry about those little maids. ”

After that, she took out an invitation from her arms and said, "This afternoon, Miss Sun specially sent someone to deliver a post, inviting Miss Sun to go to the Sun family's courtyard to enjoy the flowers. The old slave had long heard that the hibiscus flowers in the Sun family's courtyard were blooming well, but he had never had the opportunity to see them, so he was envious that the young lady could go to play. ”

"If Mama wants to go, I'll tell my aunt tomorrow and borrow Mama to accompany me for a day?"

"Oops, how does that work? Niangniang is used to the service of the old slave, how can the old slave leave? Mama Shu looked loyal, but her words were full of pride.

Liu Xiaozhen sneered in her heart, but complimented her in her mouth, "Mama serves her aunt the most wholeheartedly, and my aunt naturally can't leave Mama." ”

When the old lady heard this, she really smiled even more happily, and the two talked a few more words, Liu Xiaozhen opened the makeup box and took out a silver hairpin carved with hibiscus, handed it to the old mama with a smile and said, "Mama can't go with me tomorrow to enjoy the hibiscus, Zhen'er is very sorry." It just so happens that I have a hibiscus hairpin here, although it is only made of old silver, but it is the best master of Linglong Pavilion who shoots it, if Mama does not dislike it, take it and wear it. ”

(Can I tell if I'm Kavin, woo, Kad wants to jump off the building, beg for comfort and encouragement, and suddenly have doubts about himself, feel that the words written are like garbage, and are depressed.) It's a shift today, and I'm going out for a walk, so frustrated. )R638
