Chapter 274: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole (4)
Early the next morning, when Xu Zigui was still asleep, he heard a scream in the backyard, and Xu Zigui woke up at once: "Zidai! ”
Xu Zigui subconsciously shouted Zidai's name before he remembered that he had married into the East Palace, he was not in the Weiguo Mansion, and Zidai had already lost her legs and didn't come with her. Xu Zigui can be regarded as completely awake, and now he is gloomy, and he can only sigh.
It was Panxiang who was keeping vigil outside today, and at this time he heard Xu Zigui shouting, but he didn't hear who was shouting, so he hurriedly put on a coat and opened the curtain and came in and asked: "Niangniang, what are your orders?" ”
Xu Zigui reluctantly tugged at the corners of his mouth, calmed his feelings, and asked, "I just heard screams in the backyard in this palace, you go and inquire about what's going on in the backyard." ”
"Huh."
Panxiang nodded, blessed and retreated. Xu Zigui leaned on the pillow and sighed, she was still not used to the days without Zidai.
"Niangniang," when Xu Zigui was stunned, Pan Xiang had already inquired about the backyard and came in. In fact, where is the inquiry, they already know what happened in the backyard, but they just went over to go through the motions, and then came over to talk to Xu Zigui. Besides, at this time, a little maid had already come in to serve, Pan Xiangzhu pretended to be at a loss and said, "Niangniang, second girl...... Second girl, she ......"
Pan Xiang is very good at acting, the "second girl" for a long time, and she didn't say why, so Lan Xiang, who was waiting on the side, was anxious and asked, "What's wrong with the second girl?" ”
At this time, the little maids who were waiting on the side became active and busy. but their ears were pricked up. On weekdays, Xu Zigui didn't let them into the house to serve, but now he finally showed mercy to let them into the house to serve, but he never thought that there would be gossip to listen to, and a few little maids secretly looked at each other, and they could see joy in each other's eyes.
Xu Zigui lightly swept a few excited little maids, hooked the corners of his mouth, frowned and asked, "But what happened to the second girl?" ”
Pan Xiang nodded, glanced at Xu Zigui timidly, lowered her head and said, "The second girl and the fourth master...... ...... with the fourth master"
"What's wrong with the fourth brother, what do you say!" Xu Zigui was very satisfied with Pan Xiang's acting skills, and pretended to be anxious: "You have to die in a hurry!" ”
Pan Xiang then said that Xu Ziyun and Mo Qingyuan slept together.
Xu Zigui listened to this. Immediately, it seemed as if he was facing a great enemy: "Didn't His Highness drink with his fourth brother last night?" How so? What about Your Highness? ”
Pan Xiang hurriedly comforted: "Niangniang, rest assured, Your Highness is busy at noon. Still in the outer study. ”
Only then did Xu Zigui put his mind at ease and instructed Mama Wan: "Bother Mama Wan to run a trip to the outer study for the palace and find His Royal Highness." ”
Mama Wan hurriedly bent her knees. Xu Zi was about to get up and go to the backyard to take a look at the situation, but Pan Chun broke in at this time. almost knocked down Mama Wan, who had just gone out. Lan Xiangzhu scolded: "What are you frizzy?" Have you ever learned the rules of the dog's belly? If it collides with the mother. See how many heads you can chop off. ”
Pan Chun hurriedly knelt down to admit his mistake, and Xu Zigui went to the backyard in a hurry, so he didn't care about her. Casually asked, "What are you doing so frizzy?" But what happened? ”
Pan Chun hurriedly replied: "Back to Niangniang's words, Pan Xia made a lot of noise in the firewood room, saying that she wanted to see His Highness, and asked His Highness to cure Niangniang's sin, which caused many people to stop and listen to her words, and the slave and maid really didn't know what to do." ”
A hint of approval quickly flashed in Xu Zigui's eyes, and he sneered on his face: "Since she wants to see the prince, she will be tied up, and the prince will come over in a while. ”
With that, he snorted coldly and walked out holding Lan Xiang's hand, ready to go to the backyard to see her sister.
It seems that Panchun and Panxiang are still very safe.
As soon as Xu Zigui walked to the backyard, he saw Mo Qingyuan hurriedly preparing to leave the yard, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and before he stepped out of the yard, he shouted loudly: "What is the fourth brother doing in this backyard early in the morning?" ”
At this moment, the palace maids and eunuchs who came and went back and forth in the palace all looked at this side, and they all saw Mo Qingyuan, who had not had time to come out, and Xu Ziyun, who chased him out of the house.
Everyone thought of the scream in the morning again, and gradually realized in their hearts that although the work in their hands did not stop, their footsteps did not take another step, and they were ready to stop and watch the play.
When Xu Ziyun got up and saw that the person next to him was Mo Qingyuan instead of Mo Ziyuan, her heart was already blind, although Mo Qingyuan thought of a plan first, saying that he would let him go first, and she would come out later. Xu Ziyun thought that Mo Qingyuan was going to sneak away, thinking that he should be gone for a while, so he chased him out and prepared to escape from this place of right and wrong earlier, but he didn't want to, as soon as he came out, he was arrested.
The corners of Xu Zigui's mouth hooked slightly, looked in the direction of Xu Ziyun, and said meaningfully: "I was very worried when I didn't see my sister yesterday, but I didn't expect my sister to run to the backyard alone." ”
"No...... No......"
Xu Ziyun's brain has become a pot of porridge now, and he doesn't know how to fight back for a long time. Mo Qingyuan didn't expect to be caught, even if he reacted quickly, but early in the morning, he was arrested in a courtyard with a girl who had not left the cabinet, and in front of the public, Xu Zigui made it clear that Xu Ziyun did not return last night, and no matter how he explained, he could only describe it darker and darker.
Looking at the two people who were already out of order, Xu Zigui hooked the corners of his mouth, and directly ordered: "Invite the second girl and your fourth master to the main hall, Your Highness will definitely come over to inquire in person." ”
Yuerong Yuexi stepped forward, and one person walked up to him one by one, and "invited" the two to go to the main hall. Xu Ziyun wanted to resist, but he was not Yuexi's opponent, and Mo Qingyuan couldn't resist, if he resisted, he would seem a little weaker, so it was better to follow the past openly, and maybe he could think of a way to fight.
Xu Zigui and Mo Qingyuan were husband and wife in their previous lives, how could they not know how much Mo Qingyuan's little abacus thought, the corners of his mouth hooked a sneer, and his eyes swept over Mo Qingyuan's body lightly, how could she give him a chance!
"Niangniang, Your Highness is waiting for you inside." Xu Zigui just led people into the main hall. Mama Wan hurriedly stepped forward to open the curtain for Xu Zigui and communicated with Xu Zigui: "Pan Xia is also inside, His Royal Highness seems to be very angry that Niangniang did not punish Pan Xia." ”
Xu Zigui nodded: "This palace knows." ”
And he led the men into the main hall.
After a few people gave Mo Ziyuan a blessing, Mo Ziyuan said lightly: "What's the matter with the fourth brother and his wife?" ”
Xu Zigui hurriedly stepped forward and said everything that Panxiang had just inquired about, and at the end, he sighed again: "The concubine heard the scream in the morning, and thought it was His Royal Highness.......
As he spoke, as if he couldn't speak, tears had already fallen. Mo Ziyuan hurriedly stepped forward and put his arm around Xu Zigui's shoulder with one hand and coaxed softly: "Lone knows that Lone has been busy in the past few days, and he has wronged you." Busy through this time. Lonely will make it up to you, don't cry. ”
The tone was gentle, as if everyone in the room was invisible, and only Xu Zigui was seen in his eyes.
Xu Zigui then collected his tears. looked at Mo Ziyuan quite aggrieved. said softly: "The concubine knows that His Royal Highness is busy with government affairs. The concubines didn't dare to disturb. ”
"Lone knows that you are sensible." As he spoke, as if coaxing, he gently patted Xu Zigui's head. The doting in his tone couldn't help but make everyone in the room gasp. A few days ago, the two were quarrelling, and His Royal Highness slept in a separate room with his mother, why is he so affectionate today?
Those who praised the high and stepped on the low, thinking that Xu Zigui had fallen out of favor, cold sweat broke out on their backs, and they were afraid that Xu Zigui would take them for a while. And those who served diligently no matter what, this time they breathed a sigh of relief and congratulated their decision.
But Pan Xia was unwilling, knelt on the ground and walked a few steps on his knees, hugged Mo Ziyuan's legs and cried: "Your Highness, has Your Highness forgotten the slave?" ”
Mo Ziyuan frowned and scolded: "Are they all dead!" Don't pull people away alone! ”
After that, he looked at Xu Zigui with great disapproval, and sighed: "You are just too soft-hearted, what are you doing with such a person?" Lone heard that she stole your things, and she still repented and insulted you? ”
Xu Zigui nodded, as if he wanted to defend Pan Xia a few words, and Mo Ziyuan scolded Mama Wan and Mama Lan: "How are you two in charge of things!" Niangniang was soft-hearted and reluctant to betray her, can you make it by Niangniang? Such a disrespectful leader should be beaten to death with a stick! ”
Who knew that as soon as Mo Ziyuan's words fell, Xu Zigui turned his back, snorted softly, and said, "How dare the concubine touch His Highness's heart." ”
Mo Ziyuan seemed to have heard a very funny joke, hugged Xu Zigui and coaxed softly: "The rumors outside can also be believed?" Didn't Lone say it, if you have nothing to do within seven years and then consider taking a concubine, it will be difficult for a gentleman to chase after him. ”
Xu Zigui lowered his head and pretended to be shy: "His Royal Highness is used to coaxing his concubines." ”
Mo Ziyuan said with a smile: "A few days ago, because you accidentally broke the teacup, it turned out to be rumored by people outside that you and Gu Yi disagreed, and Gu dropped the cup and left, do you say this rumor is ridiculous?" ”
At this time, others gasped again, it turned out that the cup was not broken by His Highness, and the rumors of discord between His Highness and Niangniang were all rumors, and His Highness did not return to the palace these days because of busy government affairs...... Those who went through these false rumors trembled in their hearts, it seems that this time the crown princess is going to wash the East Palace.
Pan Xia couldn't believe it, and tried to remind Mo Ziyuan of what happened that night, but Mo Ziyuan didn't give her a chance to speak, and directly waved her hand and ordered someone to pull her down.
"Twenty canes, drive out of the palace."
At this point, Panxia's matter can be considered resolved.
Looking at Mo Qingyuan and Xu Ziyun again, Xu Zigui didn't play cards according to the routine at all, and before he could ask the two of them, and he didn't listen to the two of them to justify, Xu Zigui directly crowned the two of them with the hat of stealing and love, even if the two wanted to explain again, but Xu Zigui didn't give the two a chance: "The palace knows that the fourth brother has always liked the second sister of the palace, but the first few times because he couldn't control himself, he had a main concubine and a side concubine. Bengong originally thought that Yun'er was a fierce son and didn't want to be a concubine, but he didn't expect that he would be so desperate for love. ”
Xu Zigui bit the four words "desperate for himself" very clearly, and the irony was even stronger. Seeing that Xu Ziyun wanted to refute, Xu Zigui said again: "That's it, since the two of you can't help yourself, this palace will fulfill you." ”
After that, he instructed Pan Chun on the side: "Pan Chun, you go to the imperial grandmother's palace to ask for an order, tell the imperial grandmother about the matter here, and say that the palace doesn't know what to do, and ask the imperial grandmother to pay attention." ”
Panchun naturally should be, and went out to do things according to the instructions.
Xu Zigui drove out the palace gate that was watching the excitement: "You don't need to serve here, let's go down." ”
Everyone was already worried, afraid that Xu Zigui would take them under the knife, and Xu Zigui let go at this time, so he hurriedly ran away and seemed to have to run out, thinking about going out to discuss countermeasures.
After they all went out, Mo Qingyuan looked at Xu Zigui with compassion and sneered: "Xu Zigui, you did it on purpose. ”
If Mo Qingyuan didn't know that he was shabu at this time, he would have fainted on the battlefield of winning the heir.
The corners of Xu Zigui's mouth hooked slightly, and he sneered: "So what? ”
"You!" Mo Qingyuan was really angry, raised his fist and was about to step forward to hit Xu Zigui, but was blocked by Mo Ziyuan, and he wanted to stop him, but he suddenly changed his attention and took a punch.
Mo Qingyuan was too anxious, he didn't expect Mo Ziyuan to block a punch for Xu Zigui, it was already too late to stop, and Mo Qingyuan's mind was not right, thinking that there was no one to go first, and it would be a vain fight against Mo Ziyuan, and no one would see it, so it increased the intensity slightly.
Mo Ziyuan was obviously able to stop Mo Qingyuan's fist, but this time he let Mo Qingyuan take a punch, Xu Zigui raised his eyebrows quietly behind Mo Ziyuan, I don't know which one Mo Ziyuan sang, and was about to follow him, but a majestic voice was remembered outside the door.
"Presumptuous!"
"Father (Emperor)!"
Several people looked towards the door curtain, Mo Qingyuan was shocked, and suddenly felt that it was over. But the corners of Xu Zigui's mouth twitched slightly, no wonder Mo Ziyuan's guy didn't stop Mo Qingyuan's fist, but suffered a circle in vain, it turned out to be premeditated.
"Why didn't you report when my father came?" Mo Qingyuan said, and glared at Li Shunde fiercely, and shouted: "How do you serve your father!" ”
The emperor sneered: "If I pass it on, I can see such a bold son!" Even the prince dares to fight, what else do you dare not do? The next step is not to fight with me! ”
"Erchen doesn't dare." Mo Qingyuan hurriedly knelt down and admitted his mistake: "The son knows his mistake, please ask my father to punish him." ”
Mo Qingyuan has no way to defend himself, the emperor has already seen him beat Mo Ziyuan with his own eyes, he can't say that he wants to beat Xu Zigui, right? If the emperor knows that he even beats women, the emperor's impression of him will only be worse, it is better to admit his mistakes generously and give the emperor an impression of daring.
But he didn't want to, but the emperor sneered: "You dare to act!" How could I have such a shameful son as you! I didn't even let go of my sister-in-law's sister! It's really a beast! (To be continued.) )
