Chapter 630: A false alarm
"That's enough, shut up!" The emperor opened his mouth unhappily to stop the two, looked at Xuanyuan Hao, and saw Xuanyuan Hao's expressionless face with his lips pursed, and asked calmly: "Nine Emperor Princes, what do you say should be done now?" ”
"The imperial concubine came to see Xuanji, I am very grateful, but if it is for ulterior motives, then I don't want to see Xuanji, Xuanji is unwell, I can't see guests, for the sake of Xuanji and everyone, I still say the same thing, if you want to see someone, then wait until Xuanji's body recovers." Xuanyuan Hao said coldly.
"The Nine Emperor Princesses have repeatedly prevented us from seeing the Nine Emperor Princesses, is it really just that the Nine Emperor Princesses are unwell and can't see guests, and nothing else?" The imperial concubine said meaningfully.
"If the imperial concubine has something to say, you might as well say it directly, you don't have to beat around the bush here." Xuanyuan Hao stared at the imperial concubine with a pair of sharp eyes, and there was no panic on his face.
"Your Majesty, the concubine heard a ridiculous thing before, saying that the Nine Emperor Princesses were sick, but in fact, there were no Nine Emperor Concubines in this room at all, so the concubines came to confirm." The imperial concubine no longer said much to Xuanyuan Hao, but turned to look at the emperor and said.
"Nine Emperor Princes, is that really the case?" The emperor looked at Xuanyuan Hao in surprise and asked, "Is it true that the imperial concubine said that the Nine Emperor Princesses are not in this house at all?" ”
Xuanyuan Hao smiled coldly and said calmly: "The imperial concubine said that she laughed, if my Nine Emperor Concubine is not in this house, then where will she be?" The people in the entire mansion knew that the Nine Emperor Princesses were sick, and the Imperial Concubine didn't know what her purpose was when she said this. ”
"This palace also heard some rumors, as the so-called no wind and no waves, as long as the Nine Emperor Princes agree to let us go in and have a look, then isn't everything the truth revealed?" The imperial concubine asked a little aggressively.
"Today I promised you to go in and confirm, so where did you put me Xuanyuan Hao? In the future, will anyone suspect that there is something in my house and come to my house to check and confirm? Xuanyuan Hao's attitude couldn't help but harden.
The emperor looked at Xuanyuan Hao and the imperial concubine with some embarrassment, both of them had a reasonable word, no matter how they chose, they would hurt the other party, so they kept watching the development of the situation in silence.
"If there is no ghost in our hearts, why should we be afraid to go in and see." Xuanyuan Mo said helpfully.
"If you believe in the Nine Emperor Brothers, you won't make such an excessive request." Xuanyuan Jue still remembered that Xuanyuan Mo had insulted Baoqing just now, so he deliberately went against him.
Just when everyone was at a stalemate, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and Murong Xuanji, wearing a white shirt with hair scattered and a thin gauze on her face, appeared weakly in front of everyone.
"Husband!" Murong Xuanji held on to the door and shouted Xuanyuan Hao, and Xuanyuan Hao immediately ran over to help her.
"Why did you come out, it's windy outside, hurry up and go inside to rest." Xuanyuan Hao, who was stunned for a moment, immediately said with concern, saying that he wanted to help Murong Xuanji into the house, but she stopped him.
"My father and queen are here, how can I go into the house to rest. Hurry up and help me over and say goodbye. Murong Xuanji walked unsteadily to the emperor with the support of Xuanyuan Hao to say goodbye, "Xuanji said hello to his father." ”
"Hurry up and excuse me!" Seeing Murong Xuanji appear, the emperor's suspicion of Xuanyuan Hao in his heart immediately disappeared without a trace, glared at the imperial concubine fiercely, and asked with concern: "I heard that you are unwell, how is it now, do you want to let the imperial doctor in the palace come and take a look at you?" ”
"Thank you for your kindness, Xuanji has gotten a lot better." Murong Xuanji declined the emperor's kindness, turned to the imperial concubine and said, "The imperial concubine has always suspected that Xuanji's illness is fake, and she suspects that Xuanji is not in the house, but now the imperial concubine believes it?" ”
"I, I'm just here to care about you." The imperial concubine was so surprised that she was almost speechless, and stammered in defense.
"Xie Huang Guifei's concern." Murong Xuan said with a smile, and anyone could hear the ridicule of the imperial concubine in her tone. Just when everyone was not prepared, Murong Xuanji suddenly took off her veil, her face was full of red rashes, even on her neck, very mad, the frightened imperial concubine took several steps back, if it wasn't for the maid behind her, she would have fallen long ago.
"You, your face-" The imperial concubine pointed at Murong Xuanji and was speechless in fright, the whole person looked at Murong Xuanji in horror, saw her slowly approaching her, and shouted in fright: "You go away, go away, don't get close to me!" ”
Murong Xuanji smiled coldly, and only then took a few steps back and distanced herself from the imperial concubine and said, "Wasn't the imperial concubine afraid that she would be infected just now?" Don't you have to see me? Then I'll let you take a closer look, the imperial concubine now believes that I am sick. ”
The imperial concubine was a little speechless when asked, and she was afraid to look at Murong Xuanji angrily, and when she saw the smug smile on Murong Xuanji's face, her heart burned with raging anger.
Murong Xuanji put on the veil again, and said humbly: "It really shouldn't be for my father and queen to see Xuanji like this, but Xuanji is really unwell, and the doctor said that my body is not suitable for blowing wind outside, and I hope that my father and queen will be considerate and allow Xuanji to go back to the house first." ”
"Let's go back quickly." The queen took the first step and said compassionately: "You must rest well like this, and if you feel unwell, let people invite the imperial doctor in the palace to take a look." ”
"Empress Xie, Xuanji retired first." Murong Xuanji glanced at Baoqing and Baoyue, and the two of them immediately came over to help her back to the house to rest.
"Imperial Concubine, you have also seen this person, and you should believe that we are not lying to you, we have no purpose." Xuanyuan Hao asked the imperial concubine in a cold voice.
The imperial concubine knew that she was wrong, so she lowered her head and did not speak.
"Nine Emperor Princes, you stay in the mansion and take good care of the Nine Emperor Princesses." The emperor told Xuanyuan Hao, then glared at the imperial concubine and snorted coldly and left angrily.
"Imperial concubine, go back to the palace!" The queen reminded her coldly and left with the emperor.
The imperial concubine was shocked, and looked at Xuanyuan Mo in fear, the two were at a loss at this time, and the imperial concubine did not dare to delay, so she hurriedly returned to the palace, seeing that everyone was gone, Xuanyuan Mo had no reason to continue to stay, and left together.
When Concubine Huangxian was about to leave, she inadvertently glanced at Xuanyuan Jue and saw that he had no intention of leaving, so she walked over and asked, "Aren't you going back to the house yet?" ”
"I'll go back in a while, and the concubine will go back first." Xuanyuan Jue didn't know what the imperial concubine was thinking, and said a little absent-mindedly.
Concubine Huangxian saw Xuanyuan Jue's eyes looking into the room from time to time, and knew that the person he was looking for was not Xuanyuan Hao and Murong Xuanji, but Baoqing, and her heart was even more voiced.
"I still have something to say to you, you go with me." Concubine Huangxian said with a cold face.
Hearing the displeasure in Concubine Huangxian's tone, Xuanyuan Jue looked at her with a little distraction and asked, "What else does the concubine have to tell me?" If it's not important, let's talk about it another day! ”
Seeing Xuanyuan Jue's attitude towards herself because of a woman, Concubine Huangxian hated Baoqing even more in her heart, thinking that everything was because of Baoqing's existence that Xuanyuan Jue was fascinated and forgot about etiquette and upbringing.
"No, I have to tell you today." Concubine Huangxian did not back down at all, and said strongly, "Either you and I go back to the palace, or go to your mansion, you can choose one yourself." ”
Seeing the Imperial Concubine who suddenly became difficult to speak, Xuanyuan Jue frowned slightly unhappily, but the only remaining reason told him that he was still in the Nine Emperor Princes' Mansion, not a place to argue with her, so he nodded and said, "I'll go in and say hello to the Nine Emperor Brothers, and go to my mansion to talk about things." ”
Concubine Huangxian glanced at Xuanyuan Jue and walked towards the outside of the mansion first. After Xuanyuan Jue and Xuanyuan Hao said hello, they also left the Nine Emperors' Mansion in a hurry.
After everyone left, only Xuanyuan Hao, Murong He and the three sons in Murong Mansion were left in the house, as well as Baoqing Baoyue and Secret Words.
Murong Xuanji, who was still full of rashes just now, quickly disappeared after drinking a glass of water, and Murong Xijun asked in surprise: "Xuanji, your face-"
Murong Xuanji smiled mischievously and said, "It's all good." ”
"What's going on? Is it really like what the imperial concubine said, you are sick and fake, and you have not been in the house all the time? Murong Xijie reacted and asked speculatively.
Xuanyuan Hao and Murong He glanced at each other, and Murong He opened his mouth to reproach Murong Xuanji: "You are really bold, you actually left the capital without a word." ”
Murong Xuanji looked at Xuanyuan Hao in some surprise, and when she saw him nodding at herself, she immediately understood that Murong He already knew everything, so she said flatteringly: "Dad, don't blame me, in this situation, my husband has no way to leave the capital, so I can only do it for me, not to mention that I didn't come back safely?" ”
"What's going on? Dad, do you know something? Murong Xijie was a little foggy when he heard this, and asked curiously.
"I'll explain this to you when I get home, and you all let Xuanji have a good rest now." Murong He looked at Murong Xuanji with some distress, although her illness was fake, but she also knew that it was also very hard to travel back and forth to the Eastern Tang Kingdom day and night in the past few days, so he said in a soft tone: "You have a good rest in the mansion, don't do something that makes people scared." ”
"Yes, Dad!" Murong Xuanji nodded vigorously, always with a smile on his face, watching his father and three elder brothers leave.
"You all go down and rest, I can accompany the Nine Emperor Princesses here." Xuanyuan Hao sent Baoqing and them to retreat before he looked at Murong Xuanji carefully, saw the tiredness on her face, and said distressedly: "Thank you for your hard work." ”
"It's nothing to be able to help you." Murong Xuanji took Xuanyuan Hao's hand and said without caring at all.
Xuanyuan Hao stroked Murong Xuanji's face distressedly, and asked with some curiosity, "When did you come back?" ”
"As soon as I came back, I saw that my father's and queen's carriages were parked outside the palace, and I knew that something must have happened, so I quietly came in from the backyard and changed my clothes before going out. Luckily, I made it back in time. Murong Xuanji looked at Xuanyuan Hao happily, and couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "What would you do if I didn't come back in time today?" ”
"As long as my father doesn't open his mouth, no one can enter this house." Xuanyuan Hao said confidently: "I think even if my father has some doubts in his heart, he will not agree to the imperial concubine coming in for a while." ”
"Why? How can you be so sure? Murong Xuanji asked more curiously.
"Because my father has no conclusive evidence, he doesn't dare to take this risk, once he guesses wrong, it means that there is a rift in the relationship between me and his father and son, even if it is for the sake of my mother's face, he will not do it." Xuanyuan Hao explained calmly.
Murong Xuanji nodded, and couldn't help but admire Xuanyuan Hao for thinking so much at such a tense moment.
"Why did you go for so long, did something delay in the middle?" Now it was Xuanyuan Hao's turn to ask, "You are two days later than expected, has something serious happened in the past two days?" ”
Murong Xuanji nodded, and said without concealment: "When I first arrived in the Eastern Tang Kingdom, I found that the atmosphere in the entire capital was wrong, so I visited my uncle's bedroom at night, only to know that the eldest prince forced the palace and put my uncle and the queen under house arrest in the palace, so I delayed a little time. ”
