"Don't worry," Mo Ziyuan nodded: "Xiao Wu personally sent her back to the mansion, and she should be at the mansion now." ”

Xu Zigui nodded reassuringly: "Xiao Wu has a heart." ”

Mo Chenyuan was able to send Xu Ziruo back to the house in person, which showed that he really wanted to ask to marry Xu Ziruo, and not just used Xu Ziruo for some reason, otherwise he could have sent a trustworthy person to send Xu Ziruo home.

Mo Ziyuan smiled, held Xu Zigui's hand and didn't speak again.

After returning to the palace, Xu Zigui began to give orders one after another, and first quietly instructed Yuerong Yuexi and the two: "Yuerong Yuexi, today you will look around to see if there are any suspicious people in our house." ”

After the two of them should have retreated, they began to instruct others again: "Mother Lan and Mama Wan should pay more attention these days, take good precautions, and don't let the traitor take advantage of the loophole." ”

The two of them responded in unison, and they all retreated, and Xu Zigui said again: "From now on, a few of you will guard the door well, except for a few of you big ones, no one can enter the inner room at will without the permission of the palace." ”

Lan Xiang echoed in unison, and Xu Zigui continued: "From now on, the palace, His Royal Highness, and your own food must be more careful, so as not to let people succeed." ”

After the red sleeves should be, watching everyone take the order and leave, Xu Zigui exhaled slightly, these days are too relaxed, and he really doesn't even have the most basic defense ability.

After a period of such vigilance, there was a problem, such as the occasional discovery of poison in the food, such as finding out three palace maids who were eating inside and out. These palace maids were all sent by the ladies in other palaces when Mo Ziyuan got married, Xu Zigui had no intersection with them, and he was not chilling, but the three of them were disposed of according to the rules, but there was no news from Yuerong Yuexi.

In fact, it is not that there is no news, on the day that Xu Zigui ordered them to sweep around, they found three black-clothed people appearing near the bedroom of the main hall of the East Palace from time to time, Xu Zigui did not let the two of them catch them on the spot, but let them monitor them at any time to see who they were. But the two of them had seen three men in black and another man in black with a mask. I haven't seen them have anything to do with anyone again.

Mo Ziyuan also sent someone to check their origins, but there has been no news for a long time. Even Mo Ziyuan's people have no news, so you can imagine how cunning the enemy is.

"Could it be a foreigner?" Four or five months have passed in the blink of an eye, but there is still no trace of those people. Xu Zigui couldn't help but feel a little melancholy: "Have you been in contact with Feng Jiuqing these days?" Isn't it his people? ”

Mo Ziyuan shook his head: "If it's his person." How did it appear in our house? Although Feng Jiu is a big person, he is ambitious. But he is not an ungrateful person, Emperor Yingli is seriously ill, and he is about to die. At this time, it was the most intense time for the Yingli royal family to seize the heir, and Feng Jiu was able to stand out from it without the secret support of me and my father. Moreover, even if he is really ambitious, it will not be at this time, at this time there are still serious internal troubles, how can he take care of foreign enemies? ”

Xu Zigui nodded, and said helplessly: "Isn't there any clue at all?" The man in black with the mask is so mysterious? Why can't you even find anyone? ”

Whether it is the love of this life or the enemy of the previous life, in Xu Zigui's heart, Mo Ziyuan has always been omnipotent, but this time he is a person who doesn't even have a clue about Mo Ziyuan, Xu Zigui is really a little overwhelmed.

Mo Ziyuan glanced at Xu Zigui deeply, sighed, touched Xu Zigui's head, and asked in a low voice, "Are you afraid?" ”

Xu Zigui shook his head: "Don't be afraid." ”

This sentence is true, after all, she feels very relieved when she is with Mo Ziyuan, and there is nothing to be afraid of. Besides, that person is powerful, didn't he find the person sent by Mo Ziyuan to monitor? They just don't have a clue for a while, and when they have sorted out that relationship, it's time for them to fight back.

Mo Ziyuan smiled and rubbed Xu Zigui's head, and sighed slightly, in fact, he didn't have any news at all, but he hadn't contacted him yet, so it was inconvenient to tell Xu Zigui and let Xu Zigui worry with him, so he didn't mention it.

"Niangniang," at this time, Pan Xiang reported outside the door: "Niangniang, news from the Four Princes' Mansion." ”

As soon as they heard the news from Mo Qingyuan's house, Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan glanced at each other, and the two quickly sat up from the bed, tidied up their clothes, and called, "Come in." ”

"Your Royal Highness, Niangniang," Pan Xiang came in from the outside curtain, blessed the two of them, and said: "Concubine Shao has moved, it seems that she is about to give birth, and the queen mother has just sent someone over to let you and Princess Anyang go over to have a look." ”

"Isn't there another week?" Xu Zigui frowned, she is the eldest sister-in-law, and her younger siblings are in labor, so she naturally wants to go to the town: "Why are you giving birth today?" ”

Pan Xiang shook her head: "The slave doesn't know, it seems that the queen's mother means that she wants the mother to go over and see why Concubine Shao suddenly gave birth." ”

Xu Zigui nodded and said to Pan Xiang: "Change clothes." He let Pan Xiang pinch a few times, and said to Mo Ziyuan: "My father should have gotten the news, after all, it is the first child of the royal family, my father and grandmother must be important, the concubine will go to the fourth brother's mansion to take a look, is His Royal Highness with the concubine or going to the father?" ”

"Let's go to my father's place," Mo Ziyuan frowned slightly, and said, "Wait for my father's arrangement." ”

Xu Zigui nodded, and went to the Four Princes' Mansion with Mo Ziyuan.

"Isn't it about seven days before giving birth? Why are you giving birth tonight? As soon as Xu Zigui and Mo Leyuan entered the Four Princes' Mansion, they began to inquire about the situation: "How do you take care of Concubine Niangniang?" ”

"My sister-in-law really cares about my brother." Mo Qingyuan, who was guarding at Shao Qingyuan's door, couldn't help sneering sarcastically when he saw Xu Zigui: "In my busy schedule, I can remember to come to my brother's house to take care of my wife and concubine." ”

Xu Zigui was slightly stunned when he saw Mo Qingyuan, who was waiting at the door and looking at him coldly, and suddenly he couldn't tell whether it was his past life or this life. In the last life, when Shao Qingyuan was about to give birth, Shao Qingyuan made a plan to frame herself. also gave birth to the emperor's grandson in advance, and at that time he tried his best to explain, but Mo Qingyuan didn't believe that he didn't have the intention of harming others no matter what, and kept sneering and watching himself kneel on the ground and begging bitterly, but he kicked it away, and that kick was not so much a kick on himself as a kick in his heart.

Although this life has changed a lot, there are many that are exactly the same as the previous life, such as Shao Qingyuan is still the first to give birth to a grandson, such as Shao Qingyuan's labor this time is also a week ahead of the expected delivery date, another example. Mo Qingyuan, who was guarding the door, still looked at him coldly.

Xu Zigui sneered. ignored him, but continued to ask: "Who is serving the side concubine today?" ”

Xu Zigui is the crown princess after all, and asking for guilt as soon as she comes really puts some pressure on those who serve Shao Qingyuan, and the first-class maids around Shao Qingyuan are all inside to help the midwife deliver Shao Qingyuan. The rest of them, who are usually not taken seriously, are waiting outside the door. There's really no confidence in this. It's all you look at me, I look at you, no one dares to speak.

See these maids like this. A trace of disdain flashed in Xu Zigui's eyes, she hadn't found Shao Qingyuan so inferior in training maids before.

"What? Why don't you say anything when this palace asks? Xu Zigui looked at the crowd and sneered: "Or is this palace not qualified to talk to you?" ”

Everyone knelt down and said they didn't dare, Xu Zigui sneered again: "Which ones are serving Concubine Shao today?" ”

Only then did two maids come out and replied tremblingly: "Back to the words of the crown princess, it is the slave maid and Sister Ping'er who are serving Concubine Shao today." ”

Xu Zigui nodded and asked, "What are you all waiting for the side concubine?" ”

A maid replied: "The slave maid is serving Concubine Shao's diet and daily life. Sister Ping'er is guarding the side concubine. ”

Generally, labor in advance is either angry, or eating bad things, and the investigation is from the diet, Xu Zigui is no exception, first instructed a maid: "You go and find Ping'er." ”

After that, he asked another maid, "What did Concubine Shao eat today?" ”

The maid kowtowed and said, "The side concubine's diet has been seen by the slave maid to the imperial doctor who is sitting in the house, and there is nothing wrong with it." ”

Shao Qingyuan is about to give birth, she is the first child of the royal family, and the emperor naturally attaches great importance to it, and he has rewarded the imperial doctor early. At this time, the maid came over with the imperial doctor to act as a shield, Xu Zigui couldn't help sneering, otherwise Shao Qingyuan bought off the imperial doctor and prepared to plant a blame, otherwise Zheng Jiaying or Xu Ziyun bought the imperial doctor, and the child in Shao Qingyuan's womb who wanted to harm couldn't be saved.

"Go and get the doctor."

The maid should have been, and was about to get up to look for someone, but was stopped by Mo Qingyuan: "The imperial doctor is in the house and is ready to rescue Yuan'er at any time, what is the intention of the imperial sister-in-law to see Ping'er and the imperial doctor again this time?" ”

Ping'er and the imperial doctor are both taking care of Shao Qingyuan inside, and it is really difficult for Xu Zigui to find someone from the house. Xu Zigui sneered, glanced at Mo Qingyuan coldly, the two of them had already torn their faces, she was already very irritable when she was ordered to come over to investigate the case in the middle of the night, but this guy was still blocking left and right, which really made Xu Zigui angry, and no matter how many maids and girls were guarding outside, they would not give Mo Qingyuan face, and said coldly

"Do you think this palace is willing to take care of the in your house? Shao Qingyuan and the child in your womb don't care whether the palace is dead or alive, and it has nothing to do with the palace, if it weren't for the imperial grandmother asking the palace to find out who wanted to harm her imperial grandson, do you think the palace is willing to come over? ”

After saying this, Xu Zigui was relieved, but Mo Qingyuan's face was blue and white.

Seeing that Mo Qingyuan's face changed slightly, Xu Zigui's mood improved slightly, and he said to the maid kneeling on the ground, "Don't go quickly." ”

The maid looked at Mo Qingyuan tremblingly, and saw that although Mo Qingyuan's face was very bad, he also nodded, and the maid seemed to be relieved, and ran to the inner room to find the imperial doctor, at this time, the imperial doctor sent by the emperor to rescue also rushed over, Xu Zigui saw that it was Xu Yizheng and his apprentice Xu Taiyi, Xu Zigui was slightly relieved, it was his own people who came, so no one would fool him, so that he could solve the case as soon as possible, and go back to have an explanation with the Queen Mother.

Xu Zigui nodded at several imperial doctors, and motioned for them to hurry in to take a look at the situation: "Please let Imperial Doctor Xu stay and help the palace answer some questions." ”

Imperial Physician Xu nodded, and spontaneously landed at the back and stayed by Xu Zigui's side. Xu Zigui began to ask the imperial doctor who took care of Shao Qingyuan's diet.

"Imperial Physician Mu?"

"Wechen is here."

Xu Zigui nodded lightly, turned his head to Ping'er and asked, "Is there any food and medicine residue left over from Concubine Shao's food today?" ”

Ping'er nodded: "The side concubine has orders, just in case, the daily residues are kept." ”

Xu Zigui sneered, very good, it was really a routine to frame himself in the previous life. Squinted his eyes slightly, suddenly changed his words, and said: "Since it is the ingredient and medicinal soup personally controlled by Imperial Physician Mu, I think there should be no problem, who is there anyone who makes your master angry today?" ”

Ping'er saw that Xu Zigui did not ask the imperial doctor to check the ingredients, but asked such a question, and suddenly didn't know how to reply. Xu Zigui saw hesitation flashing in Ping'er's eyes, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he instructed Panxiang on the side: "Serve with paper and pen, write down every word Ping'er said for a while, and let her look at it for herself, and draw it after making sure that what she said is correct." ”

Panxiang should be, but Ping'er's face changed, so is it not possible for Xu Zigui to find two people to ask the right person to confess? But at this time, shouldn't the crown princess suspect the fourth princess or Concubine Xu? How do you look at her as if she is suspicious of her master?

Not only Ping'er thought so, but even Mo Qingyuan felt that Xu Zigui was suspicious of Shao Qingyuan, so he couldn't help but look at Xu Zigui coldly and asked, "Are you suspicious of Yuan'er?" ”

Xu Zigui sneered, and suddenly remembered an old saying - often compete with peers, and don't talk about the short and long with fools. So Xu Zigui didn't bother to say anything to him, and he didn't bother to explain, so he only asked Ping'er with a sneer: "Apart from you, who else is waiting for Concubine Shao today, Panchun, you go in and invite people out." ”

didn't even give Ping'er this opportunity, and didn't let Ping'er have any more contact with the people in the house, so that these people couldn't collude. Ping'er couldn't help biting her lip, a little overwhelmed.

Xu Zigui did sneer: "What? Don't you understand what Hongu is saying? ”

But he didn't want to, and without waiting for Ping'er to speak, Mo Qingyuan interjected again: "Why do you doubt Yuan'er? ”

Xu Zigui raised his eyebrows slightly, his mind turned a few times, and he glanced at Mo Qingyuan lightly, was she too attentive or what? Why do you feel that Mo Qingyuan is in charge of a bit too much today, as if he is hindering himself and not allowing himself to investigate and deal with the truth? But that is also his child, although he has affection for Shao Qingyuan, it will not be very deep feelings, why does this son speak for Shao Qingyuan everywhere? (To be continued.) )
