Yuqiao tossed in the car for nearly two hours, and the mighty convoy in front of it gradually stopped.

Bixiu covered her face with a thin veil before she got off the sedan chair. I saw that it was surrounded by mountains, the peaks were deep and beautiful, the forests were clear, and the sky was misty and blurred, like clouds steaming.

However, in the center, there is a wide body of water connected by lakes and moats, and the reed trenches are vertical and horizontal, which is called Zaozi Lake. Looking from afar, the full lake is as clear as a bi, the reeds are green and tender, the smoke waves are haosen, there are occasionally fat fish jumping, geese are in groups, faintly chirping endlessly.

Yuqiao was originally a sore back, but looking at this mountain and this water, the nose smelled like rain and was fresh, and he suddenly felt his face glow and his spirit was full.

At this time, the women who were familiar with each other got off the sedan one after another, gathered over, and greeted each other and frolicked. Between Yuqiao's eyebrows and eyes, she swept over Zhao Rurui and Yumu without a trace.

The official women are the most well-informed, and most of them know that Zhao Rurui is the crown princess.

knew that Fang Yumu was divorced, but was ordered by the emperor to accompany the princess to participate in the spring hunt.

Congratulations and flattering Zhao Rurui was embraced, and she also enjoyed this glory very much, with her back held high, as if she was not smiling, and she had put on a little arrogant posture of the crown princess.

And that Fang Yumu, because the emperor's intentions are unknown, everyone is not close, and no one is going to stir up trouble, there is a Cao Fenghua next to her, who seems to be chatting intimately.

There are people in front of him, the road is far away, and there are tired, the emperor can go to the hotel to rest and recuperate, and officially board the boat tomorrow to go to Zaoyi Lake Shui Wai.

There are four places before and after the hotel, which are divided into Jinluan Palace, Yangui Building, Tiger Leap Hall and Storage Courtyard.

The emperor brought the concubine, the princess and the prince and other royal relatives into the Jinluan Palace; The official women who came entered the goose and returned to the building; The civil officials and military ministers brought the young and strong children into the Tiger Leap Hall, and the rest of the guards and subordinates all entered the storage courtyard.

Yuqiao entered the room, but watched Bixiu try the door lock buckle, push and close the screen, and went to the Luohan bed to turn the bedding upside down and spread it again.

She pursed her lips and didn't say much, looking for a chair to sit down, just staring at Bixiu busy.

It wasn't until Bixiu checked it that she walked to the table and took the lotus-style three-color printed peony plate, together with a set of sweet white porcelain teapots and bowls from the official kiln, out of the room.

After a long time, she turned around, rebrewed new tea in the pot, poured the bowl, and placed it in front of Yuqiao.

Yuqiao chuckled and said: "Bixiu is too worried, I am neither a relative of the emperor, nor the daughter of a heavy minister like Zhao Rurui, no one will come to harm me as a mediocre woman!" ”

Bixiu frowned and said: "Sister Qiao'er doesn't know, when the queen was there, she came here with the emperor to hunt, and I also accompanied me. On that occasion, a woman from an official family died. ”

Yuqiao's heart moved, and she remembered her father's advice, so she asked, "But you were bullied by the prodigal gentlemen who came to hunt?" Father said it was a matter of the previous dynasty! ”

"Master, I'm afraid of scaring Sister Qiao!" Bixiu continued: "That woman is the third daughter of Lord Cheng Sixuan, the imperial envoy of the Sanpin Inspectorate, and her name is Cheng Zhaoqing. The eldest lord of the Yongle prince's family was in her room that day, and then somehow, this Miss Cheng vomited blood and died. It is said that he drank the tea in the bowl. Even though it was strictly investigated, a small paper packet of white powder was found in her pillow, which turned out to be arsenic. The case is over, and it is suspected that he wanted to harm the lord of the county, but he harmed others and ended up harming himself, and he lost his own life. ”

"I'm afraid this matter is strange, how can it be so simple!" Yuqiao pondered for a moment and asked, "There must be a reason!" ”

"At that time, it was said that it was a disaster caused by the children of the first family! Master Cheng was not implicated in this incident. Bixiu said in a low voice: "Later, I heard that Queen Wang had no intention of mentioning it, but it was because Lord Cheng handed the emperor a fold, which contained disrespectful words to the prince of Yongle...... ”

Bixiu didn't say it thoroughly, Yuqiao did understand, thinking about this hunt, the prince of Yongle actually came in person, his son had just been confiscated and detained, how could he still be so leisurely to come here to hunt?

Thinking about it like this, I suddenly felt cold sweat greasy and wet. Numerology reincarnation, many events have been quietly changed in the past and the future, adding a little sinister meaning.

There was nothing to say for a while, Yuqiao was slowly eating tea, but he heard someone outside the door laughing heartily and calling loudly: "Yuqiao is inside?" ”

It's Zhao Rurui!

Bixiu winked at her and gestured to the bed.

Yu Qiao understood, turned around and hurriedly stepped onto the couch, pulled over the agarwood-colored embroidered jacket to cover his body, and lay on his side on the soft pillow.

Bixiu opened the door and said, "It's Miss Zhao, my young lady is unwell and is resting......!" ”

Zhao Rurui didn't look at her, only stretched out her hand to push her aside, went directly into the house, and asked while walking towards the bed: "Yuqiao, what's wrong?" See you in the morning! ”

Yuqiao turned over and sat up, raised her hand to lightly cut her hair and sideburns, looked at her and smiled: "Maybe I've been in the carriage for two hours, I'm a little tired, just rest!" ”

"You don't want to be strong, no matter how unwell you are, call the accompanying imperial doctor to take a look, otherwise what's the use of raising them?"

Yuqiao listened to the smug look in her words, and didn't say much, only lazily bent her lips.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Zhao Rurui's eyes changed instantly, and she said in a cautious tone: "I heard my father mention that the crown princess was originally Yuqiao!" ”

"Yuqiao is not blessed! Rurui doesn't have to mind too much! Yuqiao said lightly.

Zhao Rurui immediately smiled, with a little sympathy: "It's a pity that you can't give birth to an heir in this body!" Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret for you, and I won't tell it. ”

Yuqiao lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, but he never said anything.

Zhao Rurui looked at her again, and said slowly: "You don't have to be sad, your fate is determined, and you don't know if it's a blessing!" The crown princess was originally yours, I was suspected of stealing people's favor, and I was always uneasy in my heart, and after thinking about it, I came up with an idea, I don't know if Yuqiao wants to hear it? ”

Yuqiao was still speechless.

Zhao Rurui took her arm affectionately, and said softly: "We have also been together for many years, each other's temperament is in tune, and the feelings are deep, and after I am crowned the crown princess, I am willing to be commensurate with the Yuqiao sisters, serve the prince, and wait for him to ascend the throne as the emperor, and we will share the glory of the mother's honor in the world." ”

Yu Qiao was stunned, looked up at her and said, "This is the prince's idea?" Or did Miss Rurui think to herself? ”

Zhao Rurui had a kind of wolf bèi that was seen through, and smiled reluctantly: "Don't hide Yuqiao, although it was mentioned by the prince, it is also very satisfactory to me!" ”

What do I want? Yuqiao's heart is like a mirror, the prince's ambition is not mentioned, this Zhao Rurui must value the fact that she can't have children, even if she promises the prince, there is no threat to her! can also give the prince a personal favor along the water, why not do it!

Thinking of this, she smiled, and said calmly: "Being the prince's concubine is extremely honorable!" But although my body is weak, my heart is as free and loose as a flying goose, and I can't stand the red tape constraints within the palace walls! ”

After a pause, she showed sincerity and said with a smile: "So Rurui, soon the crown prince will ascend the throne, and you will be in charge of the phoenix seal, enjoy the imperial power, and take care of the harem, but you have to be busy!" Don't worry about Yuqiao's idleness! ”
