After the most important guests left the table, the other guests also took their leave.

No matter how many female guests there are, there are no more male guests, so they first sent off the female guests in the inner courtyard, because Luo Shu had some "accident" inexplicably, and was sent to a small courtyard to rest, Jin and Luo Yan rushed over to take a look, and Jinxiu followed Zheng to the front yard.

The male guests were also almost gone, and the seats in the hall were empty, but there were still three or five groups standing there in the courtyard and the corridor, and they couldn't take a step because they didn't finish speaking, or whispered or talked loudly, and listened carefully, it was still gossip about the scientific expedition.

Chengguo was highly respected, Luo Song was impatient to sit for a long time, Luo Duan accompanied them back to the Guogong Mansion first, and left Luo Fang and Luo Rong here to see off the guests with Luo Zhen.

Jinxiu saw Luo Zhen, Luo Fang, Liu Fu and several noble sons standing at the bottom of the front hall steps talking about something, Liu Fu waved at her from a distance, and those noble sons also looked over, Jinxiu thought about going to see a salute, but Xiangzhi hurriedly ran over, and reported:

"Miss Yu woke up, I gave her half a bowl of honey water according to the young lady's instructions, but she pushed us away as soon as she was on the ground, and didn't want me and Xiang Tao to serve, only let her own two portable rings wash and dress for her, and then she clamored to see the Hou Ye, and she cried when she stopped her a little, and scolded the young lady while crying...... Now it's in the front yard! ”

Jinxiu watched Zheng walk into the hall and asked, "What did she scold me?" ”

Xiangzhi bit her lip: "She scolded...... Jealous, vicious, vulgar and ugly! ”

Jinxiu snorted: "That's it? I thought it could be a little fresh! Let's go, let's go over and greet her, don't let her come! That woman is sticky and not comparable to ordinary people, we don't care about her in our own home, and there are so many foreign men, it's not good for people to see her like that! ”

Xiangzhi nodded again and again, turned around and led the way for Jinxiu, the young lady went out in person, and should be able to stop the delicate and delicate girl who was actually very sloppy.

Luo Zhen thought that the splendid would pass, but who knew that she turned around and walked back, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, thinking that something had happened again? He followed with a step.

Yu Minxiu came quickly, and met Jinxiu Kankan at the Ruyi Gate connecting the atrium in the front yard, Jinxiu just called "Miss Yu", Yu Minxiu pointed at her and said angrily: "Diao Heng poisonous woman, you dare to harm me!" ”

Jinxiu asked indifferently: "How can I hurt you?" ”

"In front of the two princesses and so many people, how did you feed me? What do you think you can gain by causing me to lose my dignity? I'm not done with you about this matter, I want to enter the palace and ask the princess to make decisions for me, you wait! ”

Jinxiu said: "Whatever you want, I have nothing to worry about: the princess cherishes you so much, asks the imperial doctor for your illness, and uses the best medicine, but you don't care about the princess's good intentions, and the illness has not yet fully recovered, so you drink so much wine greedily!" In the end, I got drunk! You don't remember what you said or did when you were drunk, did you? and refuses to drink sobering soup, if I don't pour you, will you lose your honor in public? When the crown princess asks, I will tell the truth and believe that the princess can judge impartially! ”

Yu Minxiu's face changed: "You, you are talking nonsense!" I'm not drunk! ”

"I'm not drunk, so why have I slept so far?"

Yu Minxiu lowered her eyes for a moment, suddenly raised them again, glared at Jinxiu and said, "It's you!" You must have put something in that soup that has put me to sleep so far! ”

Jinxiu sneered, she could imagine it: who would do such a stupid thing if she drugged a guest in her own home!

"Since Miss Yu said so, then ask the imperial doctor to come and diagnose the pulse before making a conclusion!"

Luo Zhen walked out from the corner of the corridor, and there was a string of three or four people behind him five or six steps away, it was the few noble sons who had just spoken to Luo Zhen, Liu Fu was among them, with a little embarrassment on his face, obviously being pulled over by the people around him.

Jinxiu is speechless, what is Luo Zhen running here for? These many people are also idle and bored, lest there be no gossip, Yu Minxiu is still a little girl's family, don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, the prince cares so much about this little cousin, if there is any gossip to spread out, it doesn't seem to be good!

She motioned to the peach branch to pull Yu Minxiu into the road, but Yu Minxiu cried to Luo Zhen: "True brother! She bullied me! ”

Jinxiu grabbed one of her hands and didn't let her run over, and also turned back to Luo Zhen and said: "Miss Yu is just a little uncomfortable, there's nothing wrong here, Hou Ye, Liu Gongzi, and all sons, please take care of yourself!" ”

Luo Zhen paused when he heard this, turned his head and frowned at the few, but Yu Minxiu was afraid that Luo Zhen was leaving, so he was so anxious that he shouted as hard as he could, his voice was crisp and delicate, and he was very pitiful with a little crying:

"True brother! Brother Zhen, you are finally free, Xiuxiu has a lot to say to you! Brother Zhen, send Xiuxiu home! ”

Xiangzhi Xiangtao's eyes widened angrily, don't look over her head in Jinxiu, she had the heart not to be angry with this girl, but she was suffocated and panicked.

Luo Zhen was squeezed by several noble sons to see the excitement, so he continued to come over, stood beside Jinxiu and said to Yu Minxiu:

"Miss Yu, please respect yourself, I'm not your brother. You are not qualified to personally escort me, an official of the imperial court, home!" Take your things, and there's a servant outside the door to see you off! ”

Yu Minxiu stared at a pair of delicate and beautiful eyes, looked at Luo Zhen in disbelief, and her pink lips trembled: "I am sincere, sincere to you, but you have to treat me like this?" Is it really so heartless? ”

Luo Zhen nodded solemnly: "I have never had any thoughts about you!" It can be said that ruthless and unintentional! ”

Yu Minxiu took two steps back, tears rolled down, and the maid behind her supported her, afraid that she would cry again, so she hurriedly said softly: "Miss, let's go back!" Look at those people...... After a while, I will be faceless again! ”

Yu Minxiu trembled, suddenly turned around and slapped the servant girl, turned her head, bit her lip and glared at Luo Zhen and Jinxiu, and choked up: "I hate you!" I hate you guys! ”

After speaking, he raised his sleeves to wipe away the tears on his face, raised his head and walked straight towards the gate!

Jinxiu was embarrassed by her move, her carriage was on the second gate, where was there outside the gate? Luo Zhen said it so casually, and she believed it too!

When she was about to follow, Luo Zhen stretched out her arms and hugged her: "Just ask someone to drive the carriage over, let her wait outside the door, she is not completely disrespectful, and she will not make any more trouble!" It's not appropriate for you to follow the past, such a person, it's better to ignore her, and naturally it's fine! ”

Jinxiu glanced at him: "You know her!" ”

"I was taught by someone who knew her!" Luo Zhen chuckled, took her hand and said, "Come with me, a few playmates from a few hours are late, I haven't seen you, I have to say a few words!" ”

Jinxiu had to go with him, but she was a little relieved: "Yu Minxiu is the cousin of the crown princess, and you also know that the crown princess is a little ...... That one! You have to send people back! ”

"Don't worry, let Jixiang and Chen Liang send her back, and ensure that there is no mistake! Naturally, the crown princess is fine! ”

In fact, it is not as simple as Luo Zhen said, in the East Palace, the crown princess heard the eunuch and grandmother who came back from giving gifts report that Mrs. Baoding Hou ignored Miss Yu's wishes and forced her to visit Princess Ren and Princess Li, she was already very angry, and in the evening, she received a letter from Yu Minxiu to let people enter the palace, and became more and more angry: Feng Jinxiu, what is she trying to do? Yu Minxiu is the cousin of the crown princess, the person covered by the East Palace, she also dares to humiliate!

The next morning, Yu Minxiu entered the palace with red and swollen eyes, and cried bitterly in front of her about what Feng Jinxiu had done to her, and the crown princess directly compared Feng Jinxiu with the word hate.

Of course, she didn't have a good voice for Yu Minxiu, scolding her for not being willful, and making trouble in public like the last time she was in the Chengguo Mansion, isn't this making people laugh? Now that she lives in the prince's courtyard, everyone knows that she is the cousin of the crown princess, how can she serve the public with this upbringing?

As soon as Yu Minxiu left, Princess Ren entered the palace to greet the queen, and came to see the princess, talking about yesterday's Baoding Marquis banquet, chuckling and telling how Mrs. Baoding Hou was fierce and domineering, how to hold Miss Yu to death, like a small pet, poured a bowl of soup alive, and told the princess.

Princess Ren is naturally more eloquent than Yu Minxiu, and her kung fu of adding oil and vinegar is really amazing, and the crown princess gritted her teeth and listened, and her head was dizzy.

Immediately let the big eunuch around him go to the Baoding Marquis Mansion in person, and Xuan Baoding Marquis immediately entered the palace to reply!

Jinxiu received the announcement from the crown princess, knowing what was going on, she also mentioned it to Luo Zhen last night, Luo Zhen said that she was going to see the prince today, and by the way, she mentioned to him that the prince can distinguish right from wrong when he sees things, and he will not lose fairness because of his preference for Yu Minxiu.

But now it's almost noon, Luo Zhen hasn't come back yet, he has no idea, what if he enters the palace and is held accountable by the crown princess and doesn't want to suffer?

Jinxiu personally made good tea to entertain the grandfather Yu, talked with him, and asked Xiangling to take out a few exquisite and delicious snacks, after tasting it, Grandpa Yu nodded again and again, smiled, but also cooperated, sat for half an hour, and only added three times of water to the cup of tea before he was willing to get up.

Luo Zhen still hasn't returned, but Baoliang has already gone to deliver the news.

Jinxiu followed Father-in-law Yu into the palace, but met Luo Zhen at the palace gate, Luo Zhen stepped forward to hold her hand to soothe her, and smiled: "Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Just go for a walk in the palace! ”

Finally relieved, Jinxiu smiled and waved his hand, and followed Gonggong Yu into the palace gate.

I think the prince made arrangements, Jinxiu went to the East Palace, and asked the princess to say goodbye, the princess didn't mention the matter of tomorrow's banquet in half a sentence, but just talked about some irrelevant things with Jinxiu in a flat tone, although there was no mountain dew on her face, but the obscure and cold gaze in her eyes still made Jinxiu's heart cold - Nangong Zhao actually has such a princess, Luo Zhen is dead set on Nangong Zhao again, and when Nangong Zhao ascends the throne, the princess is the queen, and at that time, I am afraid that my family will have to eat her some losses!

Alas, it would be nice if Luo Zhen could be persuaded to leave the court, and the family would find a mountain villa to live in seclusion and be a rich, comfortable, and free ordinary people, there is nothing wrong with it!

Sitting less than half a cup of tea, the queen mother came to summon Mrs. Baoding Hou to speak, and told the princess: peace of mind will take care of the body, take good care of the dragon and grandson in the womb, if you are too worried about other things and have a loss, you can't live with the prince who is still a slight heir, and you can't live with the ancestors!

The female official who relayed the words of the queen mother spoke in a solemn and slow tone, as if there was some hidden meaning, and the crown princess lowered her head in response, her face was pale, and a layer of fine sweat quickly gathered on her forehead.

Jinxiu said goodbye to the crown princess, followed the female officials and palace maids sent by the queen to Kunning Palace, and accompanied the queen and Concubine Jing and another new concubine to play leaf cards in Kunning Palace for an afternoon, before being sent out of the palace by the little eunuch, Luo Zhen waited outside the palace gate, and the couple hugged each other and got into the carriage to go home.

An accountability reprimand is so plain and dissolves the past.

If you don't let the prince know, Jinxiu bravely faces the princess by herself, and the princess may not really punish Jinxiu, but a petition is inevitable.

At night, Jinxiu and Luo Zhen entered the gourd cave - the four seasons of the cave are constant temperature, and full of aura, Luo Zhen likes it very much, his physique is different from ordinary people, his induction is much stronger than that of Jinxiu, and he can also detect the movement outside in the cave, and the couple is now sleeping in the bedroom of the cave for seven or eight nights out of ten nights.

Jinxiu asked Luo Zhen: "Have you talked to the prince today?" How did he react? ”

"How else can you react? Sitting on the throne of the crown prince does not mean that you can sit back and relax, in fact, you have been guarding against it! ”

Luo Zhen stroked the long hair that was scattered and scattered, and said with a smile: "But you said that the Jin family met a master who could predict the heavens, which frightened Nangong Zhao and released a lot of secret agents, and all the Taoist temples within a radius of 100 miles outside the city, I am afraid that they will not be able to live in peace!" ”

Jinxiu couldn't help but laugh: "What are you looking for a prophet for?" It's boring! ”

Although Nangong Zhao didn't say it, he was a little nervous in his heart. Our husband and wife can talk casually in the cave, but when we go out, we have to keep our mouths shut: the second prince of the genius from heaven, his death actually has something to do with the current queen! The queen is very clever, she doesn't do anything at all, but people say that if she doesn't, it's gone, so Concubine Xian and the queen are actually mortal enemies! Nangong Zhao must ascend to the throne as the crown prince, otherwise he and the queen will not have a good result! ”

"Nangong Zhao is now the crown prince, and he will ascend the throne in the future, will the third prince ...... It's okay? ”

"I don't know! If Nangong Zhao let him go, he could only leave Beijing to live in a fiefdom. But if the queen is not happy, it will be a little sad! ”

"Just a little sad? Won't die, right? ”

Luo Zhen tapped her forehead: "You are not a royal person, you care too much!" ”

"Just ask, I think the third prince also seems to be talented, if he wins Nangong Zhao, maybe he can also become a generation of Ming Jun?"

"Princes, which one didn't grow up with more than a dozen masters? As for whether there is talent or not...... What do you want so much talent to do when the emperor? What do the Manchu courtiers eat? As long as the emperor can understand the twists and turns, can pretend to be the whole society in his heart, and put the well-being of the people first, this will be fine! ”

Jinxiu chuckled: "Who doesn't understand this truth, you are crooked, we didn't originally say this!" ”

"Well, you said the third prince? I remember what you said, 'A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier', and this can also be used for princes, throughout the ages, as long as you are born in heaven, I am afraid that there is no dragon son and grandson who does not want to be an emperor! The third prince is very calm on the surface, but after years of investigation, he is actually scheming and has been doing what he should do, but he never takes a photo with Nangong! ”

Jinxiu sighed: "It can be seen that there is nothing good about being born in the emperor's family, if you don't fight for the throne, you have to die, and if you fight, you have to die if you don't succeed!" (To be continued.) )
