251 Yan Mo appeared
The guy in Xuanwu Yicheng walked faster than when he came. But when he left, his eyebrows were raised, and he was no longer as indifferent and cold as when he came.
Su Qi stomped his foot angrily, "I've been talking nonsense with him for a long time, and that guy ran away without saying a word in the end, ah, do you want this girl to make a move!" ”
In the end, the guy only knew how to laugh, a strong smirk, Su Qi hadn't come back to his senses, and with a "whoosh", there was no figure in the house, only the black lacquer carved golden silk nan wood window was wide open.
Forget it, I guess that guy is going back to the algorithm, anyway, the engagement day is still next month, so don't be too anxious.
Thinking about it like this, Su Qi's heart was much better.
On the second day, Su Qi opened the window as usual, and she didn't see half a figure for a long time, she couldn't help frowning, called Chu Qing in, and asked, "What's wrong with the Xuanwang Mansion today?" ”
Chu Qing and Chen Su are now in charge of the news network outside, one is in charge of the palace and Ziyun Mountain Stream, the other is in charge of the Xuanwang Mansion and the Eldest Princess's Mansion, as for the rest, Su Qi rarely asks. There are too many wealthy families in the imperial capital, she doesn't have the mind or energy to collect information from various prefectures and courts, not to mention that she doesn't want to rebel, why do you want to master so much?
Grasping the key is the key!
This was taught by my grandmother and the elderly.
"His Royal Highness King Xuan stayed in the palace and didn't go out." Chu Qing changed Su Qi with a cup of warm tea soup and said softly.
Su Qi frowned, he stayed in the palace all day, and he didn't even go out, did that guy take his words yesterday to heart? Su Qi thought about it for a while, and thought of the secret path of the house that Xuanwu Yicheng had said. It dawned on me.
After a few days, he didn't see half of the figure, and Su Qi didn't ask about the situation of Chu Qingxuan's Mansion again, but suddenly put his mind at ease.
Grandmother rushed over.
At this time, it is noon, although it has entered winter, but the grandparents and grandchildren are following the past life and rest, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, noon is a thunderous lunch break, is when Mrs. Su entered the Linyu Pavilion, Su Qi was preparing to get into the warm bed.
"Qi Niang, take a look at this." Mrs. Su took three steps and made two steps. He handed over the handkerchief in his hand.
Banxiang beside him was about to take it and hand it to Su Qi. I didn't want Mrs. Su to take it back.
Su Qi looked at her grandmother with a serious face, and then looked at Granny Wang who was standing at the door before she followed, her heart jumped, but her face was silent. said: "Go down with half incense." I talk to my grandmother. ”
Although Fang was taken aback by his grandmother's actions. But Banxiang, this girl has always been a timid and obedient person, and when she heard this, she immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to look at her grandmother, so she hurriedly walked out.
Granny Wang at the door closed the door casually.
Su Qiyi took the snow-white handkerchief and unfolded it. His eyes widened and he gasped.
There is only one word on the snow-white handkerchief, a word to be exact, 'You'
Su Qi approached and looked at the ink on it with the light, the flashing light, the golden light, it was Yan Mo!
She looked up, her eyes full of doubt.
"What I found in the warm pavilion of Changfeng Hall is just now, piled up in a mess and placed at the mouth of the sweet white ice crack vase, with white plums inserted on it, if it weren't for the sharp eyes of dust, I and Mrs. Wang are afraid that we won't see it for a while." Old Madam Su said.
"If I'm not mistaken, the plum blossoms in my grandmother's house were changed with my third sister this morning?"
"Exactly. The white plum in the sweet white ice crackle vase was put in by you. ”
In this way, the handkerchief was put in after breakfast and before the lunch break.
But in broad daylight, it's Changfeng Hall, which is so crowded, who is so bold to hide in?
"Has Grandmother asked the guards?" If there is any suspicious person, even if the guards in the mansion don't see one or two, Su Qi thinks that the newly invited masters in the rivers and lakes must see something.
"I asked Chensu, we have the most people in Changfeng Hall, and we have the most guards, but the strange thing is that none of the more than 20 guards outside today have seen anything abnormal, I don't worry about you, so I hurried over."
Hearing this, Su Qiyi took his grandmother's hand, patted it and comforted: "I have Chu Qing by my side, but her skills are not opponents, grandmother, don't worry, no, my granddaughter is preparing to sleep!" ”
Old Madam Su sighed, "What do you say is the purpose of the person behind this, why did you throw such a veil every now and then, you just arrived in the imperial capital and this is the third time you have received such a thing, every time it is in the mansion, I wonder if the people in our mansion secretly moved their hands and feet?" ”
Su Qi listened, did not nod or shake his head.
Grandmother's conjecture is not wrong, at least it can show that the person behind this is very familiar with the layout of the General's Mansion or Changfeng Hall, because every time he is elusive, but the handkerchief happens to be discovered by his own people, once it is Su Qi herself, twice it is her grandmother, and there is no other outsider.
It is not impossible for one's own people, even those in their own house, to do so.
According to Yan Mo's investigation, after almost three months of investigation, Su Qi didn't have a clue, not to mention that last month, because of the matter of the Five Kingdoms, the old Emperor Rende ordered that the Imperial Ink Pavilion newly made Yan Mo Wantiao and distributed it to the envoys of the Five Kingdoms, so Su Qi's search was even more difficult to start.
The key is to send handkerchiefs with English letters again and again, and the doubts in Su Qi's heart have become stronger and stronger.
If it is just to confirm her identity as a modern person, then it is enough to send an English handkerchief for the first time, and she Su Qi rushed to the imperial capital from Cen Zhou because of this, whether it is action or sincerity, it is enough, if the person behind it is an ally, the smart one should stand up immediately.
But no, Su Qi received an English handkerchief again inexplicably a month after coming to the imperial capital, and this time it was placed in her grandmother's Changfeng Hall, and even more speechless was put after she Su Qi went to the hunting ground, if it wasn't for her grandmother to tell her afterwards, how could Su Qi know? Such an unreasonable and unpredictable style of acting is also drunk!
Su Qi didn't have any thoughts anymore, and she didn't want to suddenly receive it again. It was still at the critical moment when she decided to help Xuanwu Yicheng return to Xuanwu and decided to stabilize Murong Qin before fleeing. This time, the deep meaning is even more intriguing. Do you say that the person behind this wants to help her Su Qi, or does he want to harm her Su Qi?
I don't understand!
"What are your plans, Qi Niang?" Old Madam Su asked with a frown.
Su Qi looked at the handkerchief in her hand again, the handwriting under the gold powder was extremely neat, and she couldn't see the slightest flaw like the previous two times, she rolled the handkerchief together, and said, "It's not clear whether it's an enemy or a friend, let's take a look first." ”
In the case of unclear situation, static braking can not fall into the wind.
Old Madam Su nodded slowly when she heard this, "It can only be like this." ”
"Grandmother rest assured. Qi Niang knows that it is very powerful. There will be no conjectures, and until the reason is found, all conjectures are just wishful thinking, not to mention that the situation is grim now. Su Qi won't mess around. Su Qi then explained.
She knew that her grandmother was as afraid of her as she was for the first time. The blood boiled for a while. No matter how desperate she is, she insists on coming to the imperial capital, and now that she has figured out how powerful something is, how can she dare to be so desperate? Not to mention. Her desperation didn't have the slightest effect.
Stupid things, done once, done a second time, that's a fool!
Old Madam Su's frowning brows did not relax in the slightest, she clenched Su Qi's hand, "Grandmother knows that you are acting steadily, and I don't mean that." I mean...... If you find out about the person behind it in the future, if you have the opportunity to go back in the future, Qi Niang, you should go back! ”
This is the second time that my grandmother has told her to 'go back'.
Su Qi froze suddenly.
For the first time, he also sighed and said, Su Qi didn't think so. The second time was nervously said, even the hands that were holding Su Qi were still trembling slightly invisible, Su Qi raised her eyes and looked at Mrs. Su, the first time in her life, in her grandmother's old and deep eyes, she saw fear!
In my previous life, I crossed the snowy mountains, walked the Great Wall, and in the end I was so hungry that I could only cook the belt on my body to satisfy my hunger, I could only grab a few handfuls of snow particles in my mouth, shuttle forward in the rain of bullets, hide in the pile of dead bodies, and grit my teeth in the artillery fire.
No, never!
Grandmother, are you afraid that she will go back, or are you afraid that she will not be able to go back?
Su Qi didn't know. She didn't even know what the fear in her grandmother's eyes meant.
She was silent and didn't ask.
Seeing that her granddaughter was silent again, Mrs. Su sighed again, "You sleep, grandmother is gone." ”
She always frowned, even after leaving the Linyu Pavilion, she still didn't relax for a moment. Some time ago, she went to Ziyun Mountain Stream, she and Old Emperor Mu discussed in the study for a long time and did not come up with a good countermeasure, Old Emperor Mu was not much surprised that Murong Qin suddenly inherited the throne, and he didn't care about his granddaughter losing the queen's throne inexplicably, if it weren't for Old Madam Su's rescue grace when Su Qi moved out of Cenzhou, I was afraid that the old ghost would continue to have Tai Chi with her.
She later learned that the reason why the Mu family would not interfere was because the Mu family only needed a person with the blood of the Mu family on the emperor's throne, and they would not care who this person should be or who it would be.
That's why Su Qi was asked to enter the palace so quickly.
Fortunately, Murong Qin, the new emperor, still has a bit of filial piety, and knows that he will not be able to get married until Su Qi and Lu are married, otherwise
I'm afraid I won't see it today.
Go back, at least you can be free, you don't have to be forced to be married, you won't be forced to live every day, she is older, and she will live a day for many days, but Qi Niang is different, her life is just beginning, just live like this, when is it a head.
Old Madam Su thought, if it doesn't work anymore, she will go into the palace to beg the Empress Dowager, or even the new emperor!
The Queen Mother continued: "I heard that Qin'er has good chess skills, and recently he has been trapped in the Ziyun Mountain Stream by you, an old man, and the imperial doctor has to turn to this mountain field to go to the clinic." ”
Hearing this, Old Emperor Mu had a smile in his eyes, and said: "Let the sister smile, Qin'er's chess skills are exquisite, and he is a rare chess friend of the old man, you can rest assured, he is here with me, and he is naturally a guest of honor, and he will not treat your precious grandson badly." ”
The Queen Mother also squinted with a smile and said: "The eldest brother is addicted to chess all his life, and his chess skills are naturally exquisite, and it is rare to meet an opponent of equal strength for so many years, and now Qin'er can get into the eyes of your old man." It was also a blessing for that child. ”
"He has been weak and sick since he was a child, and later there was the ugly thing of the Huo family, this child is also pitiful, and I hope that the eldest brother will take care of him more in the future."
Old Emperor Mu said disapprerovingly: "Prince Murong Qin is smart and has a very gentle temperament, this kid and old man like it, and the sister should not say much about it." ”
In other words, Old Emperor Mu promised to help Murong Qin in the future, and the Queen Mother's eyebrows were suddenly dyed with joy, thinking that the black ink chess she sent when he was a child was really good.
She decided to take the hot railway: "Now Qin'er is also older, and she will be twenty years old after the New Year." His mother is not there. The queen has always been indifferent, and this marriage event has been delayed, and the mourning family thinks that now while the child is still in the imperial capital, it is better to pick a suitable family affair for him. Big brother, are you okay? ”
Old Emperor Mu smiled and nodded. said: "Naturally, you, as a grandmother, worry about these things." I'm an old man, and I really don't understand these things. ”
"Also, you guys have been outside since you were a child, and the wind and rain have come and gone. How can you have the heart to take care of the affairs of the back house, but the mourning family is not young when they look at Mu Jiu's child today, if they remember correctly, they are almost sixteen years old, does the eldest brother think of any in-laws for Jiu'er? ”
As soon as these words came out, Old Emperor Mu was stunned for a moment.
Don't say anything about the in-laws, Mu Jiu and Lu will not think so, thinking that the girl is still a child, how did she reach the age of Ji Lu?
"Nine girls are still young, it's better to stay for two more years." Old Emperor Mu hurriedly replied.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother covered her mouth and chuckled, but her eyebrows and eyes were shining, she said: "Jiu'er is what we watched grow up, with a good appearance and the most gentle temperament, and has always been favored by the eldest brother, even if the mourning family looks at it, it is very like, but after all, this child is bigger than a day, as the saying goes, the big woman does not stay, stay and stay to stay as an enemy, it is one thing for the eldest brother to love that child, if it delays her marriage because of this, it is not good." ”
"Jiu'er, this child grew up in the imperial capital since he was a child, and has never left his eldest brother and left his parents, if he marries far away for a while, don't say that the eldest brother and nephews are reluctant, even the mourning family will be the first to refuse, but if it is a blind marriage with respect to the ancient rites, and I am afraid that the child will not have a good life after marriage, the eldest brother does not need to say that the sister also knows how particular Jiu'er's daily food and clothing are, but I am afraid that the child of Qiling does not care about these as much as she does, although this child looks weak, but since he was a child, he has his own opinions, but he doesn't like to talk, If something happens to you and you are wronged, your mother's family will not know about it in the future. ”
"If so...... Can marry someone who knows the roots...... It's the best......"
After a while, it was completely said to the heart of Old Emperor Mu, and he sighed: "Although the imperial capital is big, how easy is it to find a son who is not bad at family affairs and knows the roots?" ”
As soon as the queen mother heard this, she knew that the eldest brother had already moved her mind, and she was even more happy in her heart, she sighed and said: "The eldest brother is right, the number one in the imperial capital is those families, but those sons and brothers in the family are either uneducated or unskilled, Jiu'er is such a good child, the mourning family is not worried that she will marry her, let alone the eldest brother, besides, those families are not three or five officials in the court, I am afraid that it will be false to ask to marry Jiu'er, and it is true to want to take the opportunity to climb the path of the eldest brother, Jiu'er has a pure nature, If you marry into such a snobbish in-law, you don't know how many grievances you will have to suffer! ”
"Hey, this children's marriage...... It's hard! ”
The small room was filled with helplessness and sighs for a while.
Old Emperor Mu's eyes flashed, and his eyebrows suddenly stretched, and he looked at the Queen Mother with a smile and said, "My sister came uninvited today, is it possible that she came for the marriage of the nine girls?" ”
The Queen Mother saw that she couldn't pretend anymore, so she smiled calmly and said, "The eldest brother who knows me is also." Indeed, today's mourning family came so uninvited, firstly, for the lifelong event of Jiu'er's child, secondly, for the marriage of the Five Kingdoms, and thirdly, because he wanted to propose marriage to the eldest brother. ”
"Propose?" Old Emperor Mu was completely stunned at this time, "For...... Nine girls? ”
My tongue trembled, and I didn't think I thought it was expected.
Guys, I don't like to worry about this, and I don't wonder that the eldest brother has such an expression.
The Queen Mother smiled, nodded seriously, and said, "Exactly!" ”
"The mourning family wants to give the nine ladies of the Mu Mansion a marriage and marry the third prince of Murong Qin!"
Old Emperor Mu was stunned, but the eyebrows on his forehead slowly wrinkled together.
Seeing that it was not good, the Queen Mother hurriedly said: "Qin'er grew up together with us." If it weren't for the ugly incident of the Huo family when he was young, he would be the prince that His Majesty values the most, but I am afraid that this son may have become the crown prince, and now the imperial doctor has said that most of the poison of the Nanban in Qin'er has been lifted, and it will take some more time to completely eradicate it. ”
"Qin'er is the third prince of His Majesty, even if he can't inherit the throne in the future, but an idle rich and noble prince will definitely not be able to run, plus the eldest brother and the mourning family, Jiu'er's child marrying her is not to say that she is rich and noble. At least there will be stability and happiness in this life. What's more, the two of them grew up together when they were young, Jiu'er has loved to follow Qin'er since she was a child, and Qin'er has always loved Jiu'er's child very much. The mourning family saw that this was a very good marriage! ”
"If the eldest brother is not willing to marry at such a young age as Jiu'er. That's okay. Let's settle the family affairs first, and let these two children get along slowly, and it's not too late to marry again when the time is ripe in the future. ”
"Big brother. What do you think? ”
How is it bad?
The concubine of the Mu family married into the royal family, which is both noble and decent, not to mention that Qin'er is dignified and talented, and Jiu'er has a good appearance and temperament, so she is naturally a pair created by heaven!
But the small meditation room of the Ziyun Mountain Stream is quiet, outside the window, the wind passes through the ginseng and green bamboo, and the sound of cicadas in the summer afternoon is endless.
The Queen Mother couldn't sit still for a while.
She really doesn't know what her eldest brother is still thinking, with her own sister watching, how can she let her little niece and nephew eat half a loss, besides, Mu Jiu's girl is so weak, marrying into a slightly scheming family, she can't take care of the house's affairs, and can't coordinate her sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, how can she have a hope in those days?
It's better to marry Qin'er, the identity of the prince, there is no mother-in-law, and His Majesty is a benevolent, not to mention that there is also his own imperial grandmother to take care of, needless to say, the days after marriage will be raised eyebrows.
But she is the most unclear about the thoughts of her eldest brother.
The Queen Mother cleared her throat and said, "Big brother, back then, the Huo family collaborated with the enemy and treason, and His Majesty's thunderous means naturally would not tolerate the adulterer, but afterwards...... But there is guilt. ”
When the words fell, Old Emperor Mu's eagle-like gaze came, and the Queen Mother raised her head and said in a calm voice: "What happened back then...... In this world, maybe a few of us old things know a thing or two, the eldest brother also saw it, Qin'er is older, if it weren't for His Majesty's acquiescence, even if Su Changfeng was resurrected, he would definitely not be able to return to the imperial capital easily, not to mention that he was just following the girl of unknown origin of the Su family? ”
"Knowing the son Mo Ruo's mother, these years of mourning family in the eyes of his own eyes, His Majesty is kind in his heart, Qin'er is young after all, even if he doesn't like it for a while, but after all, he can't cut off the blood after all, how can there be an overnight feud between father and son?"
"Qin'er's child is a good one, even if he doesn't go out in the future, he will not be able to run away from wealth and glory in his life, the mourning family thinks that the child is as good as he is now, the treacherous changes in the government and politics will affect the whole body, or not go to the troubled waters, if he likes it in the future, compile geographical chronicles and history books, which one is not a name in history?"
When Old Emperor Mu heard this, he sighed lightly, and after a long time, he said, "That kid ...... It's a pity after all......"
But in the end, he didn't give a hard word.
However, the corners of the Queen Mother's mouth couldn't stop rising.
The words were all spoken, and Qin'er looked at it again, most of this matter is done, yes or no, it is just a timely addition to the fire in the future, and there will be opportunities in the future.
The Queen Mother was in a good mood, so she went on to say Su Muli and Su Qi.
"I think the eldest brother knows what has happened these days, and the mourning family is full of ears in that Shouren Palace, and today I will take advantage of the good time to come to the eldest brother to breathe."
Old Emperor Mu laughed and said, "How did the eldest brother hear that my sister went to the General's Mansion from time to time during this time, and I heard that I went to see my daughter-in-law in advance." ”
Hearing this, the Queen Mother frowned, "Look at your daughter-in-law?" Now that the good queen is in the main palace, the mourning family will not run to do such shameless things no matter how dizzy they are, where did the eldest brother hear such nonsense? ”
Old Emperor Mu didn't answer, but asked suspiciously: "Isn't it true that the sister went to the General's Mansion three times to see each other?" ”
The Queen Mother was also anxious when she heard this, and hurriedly replied: "Naturally not, what is there to look at that girl, isn't it just a face that is seven points similar to the three girls of the Wang family back then?" Don't say that now the queen is in good health, even if the middle palace is not there, that girl will definitely not be able to enter my Dayue Palace! ”
"Back then, the three ladies of the Wang family saw how they harmed the emperor's mourning family, and now they are finally living a few smooth days, how can they let those foxy bewitchers again?" (To be continued.) )
