Chapter 597: Imperial Concubine Xian's Worries
"Xuanyuan Jue, what are you doing?" Concubine Huangxian originally wanted to wait for Xuanyuan Jue to come to talk to him after going down to court, but she didn't expect him to have a dispute with Xuanyuan Mo, so she immediately walked over excitedly and looked at the two of them unhappily.
"Imperial Concubine." Xuanyuan Mo smiled and asked the imperial concubine to say goodbye, then looked at Xuanyuan Jue and said, "Father is still waiting for me." ”
After Xuanyuan Mo left, Concubine Huangxian looked at Xuanyuan Jue with a serious face and asked, "Why did you start with the third prince, if it wasn't for me, even if I came, would you want to beat him?" Are you crazy, this is in the palace, and if your father knows about it, he will definitely be very angry. ”
Xuanyuan Jue pursed his lips tightly, even if he didn't speak, but from his expression and the aura emanating from his body, he could feel that he was very angry at this time.
"Master, let's go back and say some things." Mama looked around and reminded the imperial concubine in a low voice.
The angry Imperial Concubine took a deep breath, held back the anger in her heart and said to Xuanyuan Jue: "You go back to the palace with me, I have something to ask you." After speaking, Concubine Huangxian left first, Xuanyuan Jue glanced at Concubine Huangxian and followed helplessly.
Back in the palace and closing the door, Concubine Huangxian sat on the stool angrily and looked at Xuanyuan Jue, waiting for his explanation, but Xuanyuan Jue's mouth seemed to be stuck and refused to speak.
If it was someone else, Concubine Huangxian would have ordered someone to do it, but it was her own son in front of her, no matter how angry she was, she still held back her temper and patiently asked, "What happened to you and the third prince on the main hall, why did you do it?" What is the matter with your father? ”
"It's fine!" Xuanyuan Jue didn't want to say too much, and just turned around and didn't want to face the problem of the imperial concubine.
"Is it for the affairs of Murong Mansion?" Concubine Huangxian asked guessingly, but saw Xuanyuan Jue turn around and look at herself in surprise, knowing that she was right, she was angry and worried in her heart, and asked in a somewhat rushed tone: "Murong Mansion has no relatives with you, why do you spare no effort to help Murong Mansion?" ”
"Mother, how can you say that? General Murong is a loyal minister of the imperial court, he and his three sons are loyal to the imperial court, they have been wronged by villains, how can I see that the loyal ministers of the imperial court have been wronged! Xuanyuan Jue said to Concubine Huangxian righteously, looking at her with some disappointment, surprised that she said what she just said.
"I know that they are all important ministers of the imperial court, but whether they are loyal ministers of the imperial court is not up to you and me, even if they are loyal ministers of the imperial court, so many ministers and princes in the court do not come forward, and they need you to come forward, have you forgotten that it was because you came forward that the third prince was placed under house arrest in the palace before?" Concubine Huangxian said earnestly: "I know that you have a good relationship with the Nine Emperor Princes, and I also know that you don't want to see the people of Murong Mansion wronged, but the Mother Concubine hopes that you can also think about your own safety when you think about others." You don't know what your father thinks. ”
"I know." Xuanyuan Jue interrupted the words of the Imperial Concubine and said solemnly: "In the matter of Murong Mansion, if it wasn't for the secret consent or even instigation of the Emperor Father, Xuanyuan Mo would not be able to defeat Murong Mansion with the power of Xuanyuan Mo alone. ”
"Now that you know, why are you still going against your father?" Concubine Huangxian shook her head and looked at Xuanyuan Jue puzzled, "Concubine Mother doesn't ask you to do anything, but I also hope that you can live peacefully." ”
"Mother, you don't have to worry about me, I'm fine." Xuanyuan Jue knew that the starting point of the Imperial Concubine was to care about herself, and her tone was not as tough as before, so she softened her posture and said: "Actually, my father's attitude is not as firm as it was at the beginning, before my father thought that the Nine Emperor Brothers were dead and wanted to deal with Murong Mansion, but now that the Nine Emperor Brothers are still alive, my father's attitude has naturally changed." ”
"I understand your father, even if his attitude has changed somewhat, it doesn't mean that he will immediately agree to let go of the people from Murong Mansion. Did you mention it again in the Great Hall today? Concubine Huangxian looked at Xuanyuan Jue worriedly, "You tell me honestly, is there any other reason why you have worked so hard to help the people of Murong Mansion." ”
"Mother, what other reason can I have?" Xuanyuan Jue looked at Concubine Huangxian in some surprise, wondering why she asked this.
"A woman, for example?" Concubine Huangxian observed Xuanyuan Jue's expression and asked tentatively.
Hearing Concubine Huangxian mention women, Xuanyuan Jue's mind immediately flashed Baoqing's appearance, thinking that she knew something, a trace of surprise and nervousness flashed in her eyes, although it was only a flash, but it was still seen by Concubine Huangxian.
"I don't know who the woman the mother is talking about?" Xuanyuan Jue pretended not to know and said: "I did this to rescue the people of Murong Mansion, why did the concubine talk about women." ”
Seeing Xuanyuan Jue pretending to be confused, Concubine Huangxian also pretended to be confused and said: "The mother concubine thinks that you have also reached the age of marriage, but there is not even a concubine room in the house, thinking about whether to pay attention to the right person for you, even if you don't marry a princess and go back, at least there is a woman concubine room waiting for you." ”
"Mother!" Xuanyuan Jue looked at the imperial concubine with a serious face and said: "Erchen said that there is no such idea for the time being, even if he marries a wife, Erchen will find a woman he likes, and the mother concubine should dispel the idea of choosing the eighth princess for her son." ”
"Why do you refuse to marry? Or do you actually have a woman you like in your heart but refuse to tell me the truth? When Concubine Huangxian heard Xuanyuan Jue's refusal, she couldn't help but be a little angry, raised her voice and questioned him, "You have to be honest with me today, do you have someone you like, who is that woman?" Why don't you dare to be honest in front of me, is that woman not able to see the light? ”
"Mother, don't guess!" Xuanyuan Jue interrupted Concubine Huangxian again, and said righteously: "I will take care of my own affairs, and the concubine should not interfere." If I have a woman I like, I will tell you when the time comes. The son still has something to do, so he left first. ”
Xuanyuan Jue stood up and walked towards the door, no matter how the Imperial Concubine shouted at him behind him, he never stopped.
"Master!" After seeing Xuanyuan Jue leave, Mama walked in, and when she saw the angry appearance of Concubine Huangxian, she immediately said comfortingly: "Master, don't be angry, it's not worth it if you're angry." ”
"I think he's fascinated by that woman, and he's gone crazy for that woman." Huangxian Concubine said angrily.
"Master, this matter can't be rushed, and it can't be forced, the way the eighth prince is now, the more you force him, the more he resists." Mama comforted the imperial concubine and proposed: "From the old slave's point of view, the eighth prince's side doesn't make sense, so it's better to change the way." After all, the Nine Emperor Princesses are married, and they also have feelings for the Nine Emperor Princes, and the old slave sees that she is not an uninteresting person, as long as she wakes up in secret, I believe she will be measured. ”
"Do you want this palace to talk to the Nine Emperor Princesses?" Concubine Huangxian saw Mama nodding and began to seriously consider the feasibility of this matter, feeling that this was not a lost method. Besides, Concubine Huangxian's impression of Murong Xuanji has always been good, and I believe that as long as you talk to her well, she should understand.
The Imperial Concubine who decided to do this immediately ran to ask the queen to leave the palace, originally thought that the queen would ask more questions, but she didn't expect the queen to agree without asking anything, which made the imperial concubine a little unexpected, but at this time she didn't think too much, and after thanking the queen, she hurriedly left the palace.
"The Imperial Concubine is here?" Murong Xuanji, who was taking care of Xuanyuan Hao, was slightly surprised when she heard the communication of her subordinates, and she exchanged glances with Baoqing before getting up and walking out.
"Don't be polite." Seeing that Murong Xuanji was about to say goodbye, Concubine Huangxian immediately walked over and grabbed her hand and said with a smile: "There is no need to be polite when your family walks around. ”
"Yes, Concubine Huangxian, please come inside." Although Murong Xuanji was puzzled about the purpose of the imperial concubine's visit, she still respectfully invited her into the hall and immediately ordered someone to prepare tea and serve her.
"How is the Nine Emperor Princes doing, has it improved?" Concubine Huangxian found a topic and chatted with Murong Xuanji. "I brought something from the palace again this time."
"Thank you for your concern!" Murong Xuanji glanced at Baoqing, Baoqing immediately walked over to take over the things sent by the imperial concubine, Murong Xuanji knew that the harem concubines were not allowed to leave the palace without the emperor's will or the queen's permission, so she asked with some doubts about her arrival, "I don't know what happened to the imperial concubine this time?" ”
"I have some worries in my heart recently, and I want to talk to someone, but those concubines you also know, they are not people who tell the truth, the sixth princess is still young, and she doesn't know if she says it, thinking about it, this palace still thinks that you are the most suitable person, so I came uninvited." Concubine Huangxian looked at Murong Xuanji with a worried face.
"It's my blessing that the Imperial Concubine can think of Xuanji." Although she felt that Concubine Huangxian's intention was not as simple as she said, Murong Xuanji still behaved calmly and said with a smile: "I don't know what worries Concubine Huangxian?" ”
Concubine Huangxian waved her hand to let the maids around her retreat, and then looked at Baoqing. Baoqing looked at Murong Xuanji, Murong Xuanji nodded at her, and Baoqing quickly left the hall, leaving only the Imperial Concubine and Murong Xuanji.
Seeing that there was no one in the hall, a trace of satisfaction appeared on Concubine Huangxian's face, and she said with a gentle face: "Isn't it the son of the Eighth Emperor that bothers me?" There are so many princes in the emperor, and many princes younger than him have married wives and have concubines, but he is still alone, and I have tried to take concubines for him several times, but he has never agreed. ”
Hearing the mention of Xuanyuan Jue by Concubine Huangxian, a trace of worry flashed in Murong Xuanji's eyes, but she quickly calmly comforted Concubine Huangxian and said: "The matter of men and women also requires a fate, maybe the woman destined by the Eighth Emperor has not yet appeared, so the Eighth Prince is unwilling to get married, and Concubine Huangxian does not have to worry too much." ”
"If that destined person doesn't show up, forget it, but what I'm most worried about is that the eighth prince already has someone he likes, but he doesn't want to tell me, that will make me worry about what kind of person the woman he likes is, can he hide it and refuse to say it, is this woman not visible?" Concubine Huangxian said worriedly, but her eyes quietly looked at Murong Xuanji's expression, and when she saw a trace of panic and worry flashing in her eyes, her heart couldn't help sinking.
"I think it's because the imperial concubine thinks too much, the eighth prince has always been filial, if you like someone you like, you will definitely tell you." Murong Xuanji said with a reluctant smile.
