Chapter 175: Sandalwood
After Qianxue figured everything out, her heart became leisurely, and she smiled at Wang Nishang and asked, "That side concubine, are you going to go to Ramie Zhai today to visit that person?" ”
"Nope." Wang Nishang shook her head and said with a smile: "She is a hornet's nest now, I shouldn't be the one who stabbed the hornet's nest, wait a few more days, and I have to pick time to make a play." ”
Now Leng Xinyun's mood is definitely not good, Wang Nishang knows her so well, how could she not think of it. And the person who has the same idea as Wang Nishang is Xu Youshan, she doesn't want to see Leng Xinyun now, but she has the title of Princess Chu, and it is not good to be silent, so she had to go to Ramie Zhai perfunctorily, and she also picked a very early time, which can not only show that she is worried that she has not slept well, but also can turn around and leave immediately under the pretext that Xie Jing and Leng Xinyun are still resting, so in the puzzled eyes of the servants of Ramie Zhai, Xu Youshan swaggered over early in the morning and left in a hurry.
"Princess, what do you want to eat this morning?" And when Xu Youshan and her party just returned to Powei Houyun, she called Yuedai and thought about the menu for today's breakfast.
"Well, if you don't have anything special to eat now, just make a red rice shrimp dumpling and a few side dishes." Xu Youshan thought about it, but she didn't think of anything special to eat, so she asked Yuedai to get it casually. And because of the chaos for so long last night, in fact, her spirit is not very good now, and her little face is swollen, which is really bad.
And as long as Xu Youshan remembered the things she suspected last night, her mood was a little bad. If that's true, then the worst is next, but it's a real disaster. Xu Youshan would never have thought that one day she would be "remembered" by others like this because of Xie Jing.
"Alas......" Xu Youshan couldn't stop sighing, but then she was startled by a burst of extremely flustered footsteps, and when she raised her eyes, Chu Dai walked in with a very bad face, and said to Xu Youshan with a trembling voice: "Princess." The Queen Mother summoned you to the palace. ”
"What?" Xu Youshan stood up suddenly, but then covered her eyes and went back, this action was inevitably too fast. Leng Xinyun had a miscarriage in the middle of the night last night, and the Queen Mother received the news this morning? This well-informed person would not be so well-informed, and Xu Youshan thought that even if Emperor Zhou Hui and the Queen Mother wanted to be angry with her. At the very least, it will take three or five days. Why did you come to her now?
Xu Youshan's heart was really cold, and the faces of Wu Lin and Liu's mother next to her were also extremely bad, "Princess, what should I do?" ”
What to do? What can I do, the Queen Mother wants to summon her, is it possible that she can still resist the decree and not go! Xu Youshan said weakly: "Hurry up and change your clothes, and go to the palace now." ”
"That'...... Princess, do you want to inform the prince? Mother Liu hesitated for a moment. Or like Xu Youshan asked.
Xu Youshan was stunned when she heard this, but after thinking about it for a while. still said: "No need, the Queen Mother summoned me to the palace this time, and it is estimated that it is just a reprimand, anyway, I can't escape this trip, and it is not bad to be able to pass it in advance." ”
Wu Lin's brows furrowed when he heard Xu Youshan say this, and he felt that he still had to talk to Xie Jing, but when she just opened her mouth, Xu Youshan waved her hand, signaling that there was no need to say more, Wu Lin's saw that Xu Youshan was so resolute, and at this critical juncture, it was not easy to say anything, so he also obeyed Xu Youshan's wishes, and after hurriedly changing her clothes and dressing up, he hugged her and followed the inner supervisor who came to pass the word to Miyagi.
Wutai Palace, Shou'an Palace.
The atmosphere in the Shou'an Hall today is very depressing, Xu Youshan felt it as soon as she stepped in, but she still made up her mind, and bowed her head slightly like the Queen Mother to salute and say goodbye. But after a long while, the Queen Mother's voice, which was a little colder than usual, sounded: "Get up." ”
Xu Youshan got up as she said, but she didn't dare to raise her head, but then when another gentle voice fell into her ears, it made Xu Youshan's body tense: "Princess Chu, the Queen Mother and the palace summoned you to the palace this time because we heard a news early this morning that Concubine Leng had a miscarriage, right?" ”
Why is Concubine Xian here? Xu Youshan was shocked, but then she was relieved, it is estimated that this drama was built by Concubine Xian, how can she act when she is not there. Xu Youshan took a deep breath and said, "Hui Xian Concubine Niangniang's words, yes, in the middle of the night last night, Concubine Leng suddenly bleed...... Miscarriage. ”
As soon as Xu Youshan's words fell, the atmosphere in the Shou'an Palace was even colder, even if Xu Youshan didn't look up, she could know how cold the Queen Mother's gaze was on her, so Xu Youshan really lamented in her heart, where did this really come from, how could she look up to herself so much, and it happened to her like this? was sad in her heart, but she couldn't show anything on her face, so Xu Youshan just lowered her head slightly and stood quietly under the Queen Mother and Concubine Xian.
"Heh......" And after a period of silence, the Queen Mother suddenly chuckled, and Xu Youshan was terrified for a while, but then the Queen Mother snorted at Xu Youshan: "You are really good as the princess of Chu, you can't even keep the bloodline of the king of Chu, you are really the princess of the princess." ”
With a plop, Xu Youshan hurriedly knelt down, not daring to reply, but at this time, the virtuous concubine next to her suddenly spoke for Xu Youshan: "The Queen Mother, please calm her anger, Princess Chu is still young, and it is understandable that she has not done anything thoughtful, and the Queen Mother must not be angry about this." ”
"Huh, are you still young? It's really young, but his heart is not small. The Queen Mother sneered.
Xu Youshan's heart sank violently when she heard this, what did the Queen Mother mean by this? Xu Youshan's brain is now like a mush, and she can't think through anything, and then there is a series of reprimands from the Queen Mother, Xu Youshan is almost stunned, but after a few hours, the Queen Mother still waved her hand in disgust and let Xu Youshan leave.
Holding Liu's mother's hand, Xu Youshan's face was bloodless and limped out of Wutai Palace, kneeling for two or three hours, she felt that her legs were about to be unconscious. Mother Liu next to her was also very worried when she saw Xu Youshan like this, especially Yuedai. His eyes were already red, and as soon as he got into the carriage and drove out of the palace, he cried directly.
Xu Youshan suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, she was still in a miserable mood, but she was suddenly diluted by Yuedai's cry. Originally, the cold heart cloud had a small birth. What does this have to do with her? Let's not talk about my mood turned upside down by the cold heart cloud two days ago, let's just say that the chaos of the past few days is enough for her, but now it's good. Leng Xinyun had a miscarriage, but she was going to be punished and kneeling, what is this saying.
It is impossible for Xu Youshan to say that she is not angry. But in the face of the Queen Mother. But she couldn't show anything, so she could only respond silently, which was really embarrassing and crazy.
But when Xu Youshan was holding back her fire and was about to suffer internal injuries, Yue Dai cried as if she had been greatly wronged, which made Xu Youshan's internal injuries relieved a little in an instant, as if she couldn't cry, but Yue Dai helped her cry out, crying so hard. As if she was about to exhaust all the strength of her body, Xu Youshan wanted to laugh. laughs at the little girl who is usually so calm, but she also has such a childish side at this time.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, let others listen, and think you're the one who will be punished." Xu Youshan exhaled a long breath and said with a smile.
"But, the princess is so pitiful." Yue Dai snorted and replied.
Xu Youshan patted Yuedai's head and said with a smile: "What are you pitiful, didn't you just discipline me, what's this, when I and my eldest sister and sister Xi quietly ran out of the house to play, I was less trained by my grandmother and aunt?" Well, forbearance has passed the matter of the left ear going in and the right ear out, what is there to be pitied. ”
Xu Youshan said nonchalantly, after Yue Dai heard this, she stopped crying, she knew that the princess was comforting her, being reprimanded by the queen mother and being reprimanded by the old lady is different, the old lady and the eldest lady reprimanded the young lady, they are the love of the elders for the younger generations; But the queen mother just reprimanded the princess, but she didn't have the slightest love, how could these Yuedai not be able to tell the difference.
But since Yue Dai can tell it, let alone Xu Youshan herself, but when she said this, she just wanted to comfort Yue Dai, so when Yue Dai stopped crying, after laboriously putting away her tears, Yue Dai did not disturb Xu Youshan to close her eyes and rest, but went to help Liu's mother, who had been silent, to give medicine to Xu Youshan's slightly red and swollen knees.
Just now in the Shou'an Palace, Xu Youshan knelt on the ground, there was no cushion under her knees, she really knelt on the sandalwood floor, but when the Queen Mother and Concubine Xian saw this, they didn't ask Xu Youshan to get up, but just let her kneel on the ground like that, and kneeling for a few hours, this knee is not red and swollen to be called strange.
The more Yue Dai thought about it, the more angry she became, and her little body trembled a little, but Mother Liu next to her glanced at her lightly, Yue Dai suddenly became smart, and then raised her eyes to look at Xu Youshan, and found that when she was actually asleep, her emotions suddenly calmed down, and she sat quietly beside Mother Liu to give her a hand, and gently smeared medicine on Xu Youshan's knees, trying not to make extra noise, and the carriage also slowed down and slowly drove back towards the Chu Palace.
Chu Wangfu, empty mountain residence.
"Are you back?"
"Not yet, the news has just been sent back, and now it has just left the range of Miyagi."
"How can it be so slow?" Xie Jing's long eyebrows furrowed slightly, and there was a faint melancholy in his narrow eyes, which was reported back before, saying that Xu Youshan and his party had already left the palace, but it had been so long, but they had just left the range of the palace city, which was a little too slow. Xie Jing's eyes narrowed slightly and looked at Wen Ge, Wen Ge naturally knew what Xie Jing meant, but after hesitating for a while, he decided to report truthfully.
"Lord, the people in our palace city have sent back the news that when the princess came out of the Shou'an Palace, she was ...... It's a little inconvenient for the legs and feet, it seems that in the Shou'an Palace, I was punished by the Queen Mother to kneel"
Wen Ge's words became quieter and quieter, and his head sank more and more, because Xie Jing's eyes were gloomy and more terrifying at this time, Wen Ge's little heart was so frightened that even his voice was completely silenced, and the agarwood standing next to him also subconsciously held his breath at this time, and he didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that Xie Jing would notice her. And such Xie Jing, Wen Ge and agarwood are no strangers, but he has never been used to it.
The two of them were silent for a while, but the chill around Xie Jing became more and more intense, and before Wenge and Agarwood were almost frozen by ice, Xie Jing suddenly spoke, making the two of them take a deep breath quickly, and they almost suffocated just now.
"Agarwood, go to the ramie to guard, and report any movement." Xie Jing turned around, Wen Ge and Agarwood couldn't see his expression, they could only hear his tone as light as usual, but Agarwood responded quickly this time, and left immediately, the figure seemed to escape as fast as a child.
And after Agarwood left, Xie Jing said to Wen Ge, who was secretly complaining: "The movement over there has slowed down, and from today onwards, the movement on the border side has begun to speed up." ”
Wen Ge was shocked when he heard this, but after struggling and struggling, Wen Ge still bent over with a solemn expression, and then also retreated, and suddenly Xie Jing was left alone in the study, and at this time, the sun outside the window was the brightest time, but the strange thing was that as soon as the bright and warm sunlight outside the window fell into the study with only Xie Jing alone, it suddenly became cold, and the refreshing warmth just now disappeared without a trace in an instant, and the only thing left was the cold and cold.
"Princess, wake up, it's time to go to the palace." Mother Liu's voice was soft and gentle, as if she was afraid of disturbing Xu Youshan, and she was soft.
And Xu Youshan rubbed her eyes and rubbed her eyes again, she finally opened her eyes with difficulty, last night was already chaotic for half a night, this morning her spirit is not good, and then after the Shou'an Palace was destroyed for a morning, Xu Youshan was already tired, but just now in the palace, she was about to be suffocated by the wildfire in her chest, but she didn't feel anything, but when she got into the carriage, she was doused by Yuedai's howling and anger, and the sleepiness could no longer be stopped.
But Xu Youshan never expected that she would sleep so well this time, and she had no dreams all the way, which was really an accident. Xu Youshan stretched her waist in the carriage, tidied up her appearance, and helped Liu's mother get out of the carriage and change to the soft sedan chair, but as soon as she boarded the soft sedan chair, her sleepiness returned.
