257 Out of the Palace
The Lord of Qiling left two hours later.
"Father's body and bones have only improved in the past two days, and his appetite has somehow deteriorated a lot lately, if I don't go back to eat with him, I'm afraid he will cut corners again." Qi Ling explained.
Murong Qin, who happened to come in, nodded and said, "It's okay, Qi Ling has finally grown up, and it is also his blessing that the Marquis of Xicheng has a daughter like you." ”
Qi Ling smiled lightly, blessed his body and said, "Thank you for the emperor's brother's praise, Qi Ling will retire first." ”
After saying that, he ran away with a smoke.
Murong Qin smiled and shook his head, "I was still thinking about when this girl had so much etiquette in front of me, and I didn't want to be like this." ”
He looked back.
Su Qi was half-sitting on the dragon bed, looking straight at him with his eyes, dumbfounded, unable to tell what mood he was.
"What's wrong?" Murong Qin smiled and stepped forward, "But you're still not feeling well?" Do you want to ask the imperial doctor to come and have a look? After thinking about it, he frowned, "These quacks in the Tai Hospital, they have a hand in fooling me, and they are always useless at critical moments!" ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm tired, I'll sleep." Su Qi came back to his senses, but he only said these two words, then slipped into the quilt, turned around, and faced the bright yellow dragon tent.
Murong Qin's words of concern clicked in his throat.
"In that case, you rest first, and I go to the imperial study."
It wasn't until the door "squeaked" that Su Qi listened carefully with his ears pricked up, and after making sure that there was no breathing sound around, he sat up from the bed.
Since discovering that there is an inexplicable extra martial arts on my body. Su Qi also found that her five senses were much better than usual, as far as hearing was concerned, how could she hear this kind of breathing sound in the past, even if she heard it, only the person next to the pillow could hear it, and it was impossible to hear it in a room.
But now she could hear, not only that, but she could even hear the breathing of the head man outside the house, deep and gentle, definitely not those girly eunuchs, it must be a warrior like the Royal Forest Army. And there's more than one. She listened carefully, there were at least eight of them.
It seems that Murong Qin is determined to leave her in the palace.
How easy is it to get out of the palace?
Clear words, firm and serious eyes. For a while, Qi Ling didn't know what to say.
Su Qi sighed and told what had just happened to him. How to discover the secret passages. How to enter, then see Xuanwu Yicheng, and then ...... She omitted. It was as if he was drunk, confused, but it was unusually hot, as if he was in a sea of fire, he didn't know where he was, he didn't know what he was doing, and then there was Qi Ling's scream......
She asked how Granny Chensu had found this place, and why she was so eager to find her.
Mother-in-law Chensu thought for a while and said, "The old slave has been guarding the lady's room, and suddenly a father-in-law came to report that the lady had broken her foot and was in a hurry to find the old slave, so I followed his guidance to find this ......."
Hearing this, Qi Ling also jumped up, she glared at Su Qi in disbelief, and then recalled with a frown: "...... The wine of her daughter's love was said by Mama Yu, saying that others don't know about that courtyard, and Murong Qin's brother must be able to find it...... also said that the Queen Mother's wine is unknown to outsiders...... I didn't understand at all, so I just thought about going to Brother Murong Qin to help...... Then ......"
Mama Yu, isn't that the right-hand man by her side?
Su Qi sneered.
What a ploy!
It's just that I don't know how she Su Qi can do it, and she actually works with that person!
Then, she remembered the moment she broke free from Xuanwu Yicheng's embrace, and the cold and clear words, "Pretend to be sick and escape!" ”
Four words, very clear.
It seems that Xuanwu Yicheng should have known the truth early in the morning, just waiting for her Su Muli and Ah Qin to jump into the trap.
And she is stupid not pitiful, but pathetic......
Su Qi's expression froze, and he said coldly: "Let's go, we should also go to the Queen Mother to say hello!" ”
Any action must have a purpose, she doesn't believe that the Queen Mother's sophisticated plan is to separate her from Ah Qin, she must know the purpose, and only then will she know how to fight back.
So, there is no word for backing down!
It is even more impossible, pretend to be sick and flee!
Su Qi stood up suddenly, but stopped the moment he took his step.
Ah Qin's eyebrows flashed in his mind, still so handsome and noble, but his eyebrows were no longer light and light, and the smile was leisurely, but instead of shock and sadness......
The disappointed eyes shot straight like a sharp sword, and Su Qi's chest ached, and he stopped abruptly.
She hasn't found Ah Qin yet, she hasn't explained to Ah Qin yet, if she just wants to go to the Queen Mother to ask clearly, what can Ah Qin do?
What's more, if you find the Queen Mother, you will definitely be able to ask a clear understanding?
Su Qi turned around and grabbed Qi Ling's hand, and said anxiously: "Qi Ling, you must help me!" ”
Qi Ling is not stupid, just after Su Qi's words, she thought of the person behind the scenes after a little thought, and when she heard Su Qi's request for help, she was stunned for a moment, frowned and said: "What do you want me to do, you just say it!" ”
Even if the other party was the imperial grandmother, she would definitely not look at Su Qi without it.
Su Qi's eyes were slightly wet, but this was not the time to show gratitude, she immediately said: "I must find Murong Qin first, and the Queen Mother will help me keep an eye on it, we don't know what will happen next," so......
"Good!" Qi Ling immediately responded, "The imperial grandmother has always been mysterious, sometimes even the imperial uncle doesn't know her old man's intentions, you go to find Murong Qin's brother quickly, I will definitely pay attention to the imperial grandmother's side, and tell me in time if there is anything abnormal, okay?" ”
After speaking, Qi Ling didn't wait for Su Qi to answer, and ran out of the small courtyard with him, until he couldn't see her figure anymore, Su Qifang said coldly: "Let's go, let's go and find it quickly." ”
It was only at this moment that she knew that Ah Qin was so important in her Su Qi's mind, even if she knew that the Queen Mother was now teaming up with Xuanwu Yicheng to frame her. Even if she didn't know what kind of danger and hardship she would face, now she Su Qi still resolutely decided to find Ah Qin and explain to him, just to get his forgiveness......
However, she didn't find Ah Qin, even if she had already turned around the West Straight Palace, even if she even used Chu Qing and Banxiang, there was still no trace of anyone.
She threw herself on Murong Qin, and she didn't even pay attention to the handsome shadows of foreign sons and goddesses who could be seen everywhere in the Xizhixing Palace, and she didn't even arouse the slightest doubt.
Qi Ling asked anxiously all the way. In the end, he was stopped by his father-in-law.
"Back to the county lord. The Queen Mother is talking secretly with the envoys, and she ordered anyone not to disturb when they come, and I hope the county lord will forgive me! ”
Qi Ling was so angry that he stomped his feet and flew over. In a blink of an eye, it had fallen to the middle of the courtyard. She stared at the four little princesses and said, "If you dare to show off." The county lord is sure to ask for your head, the imperial grandmother loves me so much, if you want to kill or scrape, it is still the county lord's words! You've got to think it through. ”
Thereupon. One by one, their faces turned pale with fright, and they fell to their knees, not daring to say anything more.
Qi Ling raised his eyebrows and strode in.
In the main hall of the West Straight Palace, the eight-sided fan of the black lacquered Nanmu carved door is closed, that is, the carved small window under the plane tree is also closed tightly at the moment, Qi Ling flashed surprise in her heart for a while, she leaned over softly, was about to push the door, but her hand bounced back when it touched the Nanmu carved door.
She stooped down and hid under the apse window.
This place was discovered when I was a child playing hide and seek with Brother Xuanwu, and there are flowers and trees on three sides, and it is under the window of the inner room, whether it is hiding or eavesdropping, it is no better.
So, clearer words came.
"It's been so many years, the mourning family has finally looked forward to you back, and now, you have grown so tall, and your body and bones are no longer as weak as when you were a child, the imperial grandmother can finally put her mind at ease, these years of wandering, but it has hurt you, Qin'er......"
Then came the sound of "huh" crying.
"The grandson is not bitter, with the care and love of the imperial grandmother, the grandson is doing well......"
The mellow, deep voice, the most familiar voice, is none other than Brother Murong Qin.
The brow on Qi Ling's forehead furrowed deeper and deeper.
How could Brother Qin be in the inner room of the imperial grandmother, and the little father-in-law outside was not the imperial grandmother who was meeting the envoys of the five countries? If she had known that Brother Qin was with the imperial grandmother, she would not have acted separately from Su Qi, it was the imperial grandmother who had always been cold to Brother Qin, why did she say such a thing today, and ...... Crying!
How could an old man as charitable and joyful as the imperial grandmother cry?
It's been so many years, majestic, charitable, happy, and severe, but she Qiling has never seen the imperial grandmother cry, what's wrong with her today?
Qi Ling got up slightly and pressed the root of his ear against the crack in the window.
"Qin'er, now that you are not young, the marriage matter naturally cannot be delayed any longer, today the emperor's grandmother specially summoned you together, just to find a suitable girl for you."
"Tell the imperial grandmother, have you just seen what you like?"
Originally...... It turned out that the imperial grandmother was there to protect Brother Qin!
Qi Ling's heart was shocked, and she almost stumbled and fell to the ground, but fortunately she grabbed the window.
However, Brother Murong Qin saw the scene of Su Qi and Brother Xuanwu's intimacy......
What would Brother Chin say?
Qi Ling became more and more curious, and even slowed down his breathing.
Murong Qin's eyes flashed A Qi's delicate eyebrows, and then the intertwined figures, the smell of wine in the room, but he just wanted to escape, he paused, looked straight back at the imperial grandmother's face of concern, the sword in his heart slid through, and he said lightly: "Qin'er listens to the imperial grandmother's arrangement." ”
When the words fell, the Queen Mother's eyebrows and eyes overflowed with joy.
She knew that Qin'er would not be confused by Su Muli's girl, what the eldest brother said that day in Ziyun Mountain Stream must have been just that the eldest brother was too concerned about Mu Jiu's worries, if it was reasonable to say that Xuan'er had fallen in love with that girl, how could a child like Qin'er be only confused by her beautiful appearance?
The Queen Mother took Murong Qin's hand and said: "The mourning family knows that you are a good boy, these days you will be in the imperial capital, the mourning family has been paying attention to you, there are many ladies in the imperial capital, but there are not many who can match our royal family in terms of net worth and appearance. The lady who married back must be a soft personality, considerate and will take care of talents, if it is just a delicate and willful girl, it is not good, and the mourning family is only looking forward to you adding a great-grandson in the coming year! ”
Qi Ling hid at the foot of the window, but his legs trembled.
During this period of time, the emperor's grandmother ran to the general's mansion every now and then, was it just for Murong Qin's brother, Su Qi behaved decently, and was well-behaved and obedient, could it get into her old man's eyes?
But does it mean that the emperor's uncle values Su Qi? Is it good to marry Su Qi to Murong Qin's brother?
For a moment, Qi Ling was so nervous that he held his breath.
The mourning family thought about it and looked at it again and again. I went to the Ziyun Mountain Stream several times to discuss this matter with your Mu family's uncle and grandmother. Now that it's okay, he is also very optimistic about you, and he has agreed to marry Mu Jiu's child to you! ”
The words fell, and there was a "pimple". Coming from the foot of the window.
The Queen Mother suddenly frowned. Mama Yu next to her immediately walked over.
"Meow. Meow, meow"
Qi Ling was flustered, and shouted a few times. A puff of smoke hid in the flowers and trees.
Mama Yu opened the window and glanced at it a few times, and said with a smile: "...... It's a flower cat that has run away. ”
The Queen Mother nodded, and she closed the window again.
Qi Ling couldn't stay any longer, and ran out of the flowers and trees in three or two steps, and rushed towards the outside of the hall.
In the inner room of the main hall, the Queen Mother asked Murong Qin with a charitable eyebrow, and said: "The mourning family is dedicated to your good, and Mu Jiu's child can be regarded as growing up with you since childhood, and they naturally understand each other's temperament, although she was not born to your uncle's original match, but after all, she is also the son of the Mu family, and she has been raised by your Mu family's uncle and grandmother since she was a child, you can rest assured that marrying her will not let you suffer." ”
"If you can watch you and Xuan'er become relatives and have their own children, the imperial grandmother can go with peace of mind......
Murong Qin's mind was full of Su Qi's figure at this moment, delicate, capricious, smiling, and eyebrows raised, he remembered the soft fragrance in his arms in the Four Academies that day, and the soft green silk with the natural fragrance had been wrapping around his heart, Murong Qin thought at that time, if he could hold his Ah Qi every day and gossip about the flowers in front of the court, and sit and watch the clouds rise and fall, how happy it would be!
It's a pity that it's just a dream!
The Queen Mother looked at Murong Qin's absent-minded appearance, and her heart became more and more uneasy, she continued: "The mourning family doesn't want you to get married this year, your uncle and grandfather Mu feel sorry for Mu Jiu's child, and want to stay by his side for another year or two. ”
After hearing this, Murong Qin said lightly: "There is the trouble of the grandmother of the emperor, and Qin'er is the master of the grandmother alone!" ”
Shao Gong is right, he can't get it after all, why don't he let it go as soon as possible?
If you die, you will be able to go on better!
Whether it is Mu Jiu or not, at least Mu Fu is his Murong Qin's backer in the future, and his actions are different!
The sun was almost overhead, but Su Qi was still walking through the flower paths, and the white sun shone on her dizziness.
It's been almost half an hour, but she still hasn't found Aqin, and her heart is getting more and more flustered, there is no news from Qi Ling's side, it is the best news, and the queen mother is afraid that she also knows that she Su Muli is alert, so she took the handle.
But where did Achin go?
Mother-in-law Chensu came over to support her, and said sadly: "The lady should rest first, and now it is almost noon, the sun is the most vicious time, if the lady is suffering from heat stroke, how is it good, as long as people are still in the palace, they will definitely be able to find it, the lady and the three princes have always been close, if there is any misunderstanding, it will make sense, the lady must not be anxious." ”
Granny Chensu didn't know what was going on, so she said that.
But when Su Qi heard this, he became even more anxious.
If it was normal, she didn't need to explain to Ah Qin, and Ah Qin would definitely believe her, but today she had to say it, and she knew very well the cruelty of seeing is believing.
So, no matter what, you must find Achin.
The figure of Xuanwu Yicheng came out.
The moonlight dress is like a ring behind the Buddha, and it is more and more handsome and extraordinary.
It's just that Su Qi didn't open his eyes.
Now she lost her appetite at the sight of that guy, let alone any closer.
Xuanwu Yicheng is smiling at the corner of his mouth, and the evil spirit is secretly born. He walked over with fluttering clothes and said, "It turns out that the seventh lady of the Su family is here, so it is easy for this king to find." ”
Su Qi looked at the delicate flowers in the garden and did not answer.
With a wave of Xuanwu Yicheng's hand, the little guy behind him and Chensu withdrew from the pavilion.
He leaned in.
Su Qi blocked in front of him with one hand, staring at the guy with his sword-like eyes, and said hatefully: "Xuanwu Yicheng, you are despicable!" ”
Xuanwu Yicheng laughed back, "Despicable? Where is meanness? ”
Su Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Drugged in wine, why don't you say you're despicable?" ”
If it weren't for the drug in that wine, how could she Su Qi be so soft that she couldn't exert a little strength in her body. How can you be confused and let this pervert take advantage. In the end, he was actually seen by Aqin......
Now it's good, Xuanwu Yicheng still doesn't admit it!
I'm so angry with her!
Xuanwu Yicheng took two steps back and said with a smile: "Su Qi, even if you are beautiful." But there are as many beautiful ladies in the world as there are kings. Why do you have to do it? The king hid in the cellar of the imperial grandmother and tasted wine. I don't know who recklessly broke into the recent past, and I don't know who approached so unafraid of death, this king has always accepted it when he sees beauty. What's more, still under drunkenness? ”
"It's just ...... Drunk and out of shape, do the seven ladies of the Su family also have to argue with this king about right and wrong? ”
said it so naturally, as if it was reasonable, Su Qi couldn't be angry, but she also knew that this was not the time to discuss right and wrong with this drunkard pervert, so she flicked her sleeves and prepared to leave.
But the guy posted it.
Su Qi paused, and said in a cold voice: "His Royal Highness King Xuan, this girl is not a good person who is bullied, no matter how bad you are, this girl will scream!" ”
Xuanwu Yicheng didn't make any further arrogant moves, he smiled evilly, and sighed: "I said, you quickly pretend to be sick and leave, the West Straight Palace is the land of right and wrong, and if you don't leave, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you!" ”
"The envoys of the five kingdoms have all entered the palace, Su Qi, don't be willful anymore, be obedient, hurry up, okay?"
The last words were pleading.
Su Qi looked back at the serious eyebrows of the guy, did not answer, and walked out of the pavilion without looking back.
What does the envoy of the Five Kingdoms have to do with her Su Qi?
Where is this imperial capital not a place of right and wrong?
Even if she can hide from the first year of junior high school, can she still hide from the fifteenth?
What's more, escaping is not her Su Muli's style!
Ah Qin is still in the West Straight Palace, what is she afraid of!
Su Qi walked more and more firmly, completely unaware of the tenderness of the gaze following behind him.
Xuanwu Yicheng kept looking at the thin back until he couldn't see it anymore after the corner, he smiled bitterly and said, "If you listen to me, it won't be Su Qi......
Gu Bi walked over and said expressionlessly: "The third prince of Murong has just come out of the main hall of the Queen Mother, lunch has begun, and the father-in-law sent by the Queen Mother is already on the way to find His Royal Highness. ”
Xuanwu Yicheng smiled and asked casually: "Then do you know that the emperor's grandmother wants this king to marry the lady of the Su family as a side concubine?" ”
The corners of Gu Bi's mouth curved slightly, and he said, "I don't know, I don't think it will be the seventh lady of the Su family." ”
Xuanwu Yicheng snorted coldly and said, "Do you still need to say that the people in the palace have been notified?" At that time, I am afraid that I will have to come to the rescue of the emperor's uncle, no matter what, I will leave Su Qi's girl in Dayue first, and then I don't know how that girl will make trouble when I go to the wild land. ”
Gu Bi said in a cold voice: "Is His Highness meddling in his affairs?" ”
Hearing this, Xuanwu Yicheng kicked over, but stopped when he hit the corner of the blue-gray robe on the valley wall, he held back the little scholar's glance, and said confidently: "This king is nosy, what's the matter?" This king likes it! ”
Gu Bi didn't say anything anymore, and turned around and left directly.
Xuanwu Yicheng fell behind him, was stunned, sighed, and walked forward.
What's the point of meddling in it, taking care of everything, and whether it's idle or not?
In the past few months, has he been less idle in Xuanwu Yicheng?
That's not much!
Lunch is set in the Qionghua Gate of the West Zhixing Palace, the inner courtyard is the ladies, and the outer courtyard is a group of male guests.
The lady with a heart only found out that there were so many sons in the West Zhixing Palace, Su Qi was also suspicious, the Queen Mother's edict yesterday did not say that there would be male guests, and I heard Xuanwu Yicheng say that it seems that the envoys of the Five Kingdoms have entered the palace, and it stands to reason that the envoys came to be the Ministry of Rites, and the emperor sent someone to entertain them, why is it the turn of the Queen Mother to set up a banquet to entertain them?
In the middle, I'm afraid it's not that simple!
Swept around the various ladies in fancy clothes in the inner courtyard, there was no Qi Ling, Su Qi didn't believe it, and looked around carefully, but there was still no figure of Qi Ling's girl, she couldn't help frowning.
The Queen Mother was already sitting on it, and only Mu Jiu's girl was left by her side, but I don't know when her third sister and fourth sister also stood beside the Queen Mother, looking at the smiling face of the fourth mother of the Su family, Su Qi felt strange how she looked at it.
But at this moment, she doesn't care about this, the old lady of the Queen Mother has always been a belly idea, as long as the third mother and fourth mother of the Su family don't make any mistakes in front of her old man, nothing else, she Su Qi doesn't care. (To be continued.) )
