Chapter 165: Lord of Jian'an

When Xiao Moheng received the news from the palace, he didn't even think about it, so he picked a secret guard and hurriedly followed him in a carriage. He was glad that he had been there for her for the first time when she needed someone else and had given her warmth. At this moment, no matter how cold the body is, the heart is as warm as the sun.

He hugged her tightly, and secretly suppressed the ** in his heart who wanted to rub her into his bones, he closed his eyes slightly, and a helpless sigh slipped out of the corners of his mouth. He secretly swore in his heart that one day he would really make her his own woman, and he would hug her like this for the rest of his life, give her warmth, and rely on her.

Ruoyun was embarrassed, so he had to look elsewhere and quietly listen to the sound of the carriage walking.

After the carriage drove for half an hour, it stopped at the side gate of the Jiang Mansion, Xiao Moheng finally came back to his senses and instructed Ruoyun: "It's inconvenient for me to show up, you go and call someone to pick her up into the mansion." Ruoyun nodded knowingly, and immediately got out of the carriage.

In the carriage, Xiao Moheng's breathing was quite heavy, he held Jiang Mei in his arms fiercely, and he was very reluctant, if he could, he really wanted to bring her back to the palace, but he couldn't, that day would probably take time. Xiao Moheng finally leaned his head close to her forehead, turning his infinite love into a gentle kiss.

"Your Highness?" Ruoyun took Jiuzhu and Ronghe and called softly at the entrance of the car.

"Come in..."Xiao Moheng said lightly, his voice without any emotion.

Immediately Ruoyun lifted the curtain, Jiuzhu got in, nodded gratefully to Xiao Moheng, and then wrapped the quilt around Jiang Mei's body, and then slowly picked her up and walked out of the carriage.

Xiao Moheng heard the sound of the door closing. Only then did he lightly command the people outside the carriage, "Go back!" ”

The secret guard outside the carriage answered, and immediately waved his whip and drove east.

After Jiuzhu and the others settled Jiang Mei, they squatted under the bed one by one, leaning on the fire for Jiang Mei while staring at the stove in a daze, and the prosperous flames in the stove were swaying and colorful, which formed a sharp contrast with the heavy complexions of the three people.

"I won't let go of Concubine Su!" Rong He's face said coldly, and the fiery red charcoal fire forced his cold eyes to be black and shiny.

Jiuzhu still didn't say a word. He remembered his oath to Ruoxue in his heart. "I don't leave Miss in this life...."Only, only in the palace, Jiuzhu can't follow in, as long as Jiuzhu is no longer by her side. She had accidents without exception. This strengthened Jiuzhu's determination to never leave. In the future, even if it is the palace, he will have to go with him, but Akari can't. Then protect it secretly, as for the guards in the palace, he doesn't care about it.

Compared with the cold faces of the two, Ruoyun looked at Jiang Mei lying on the bed with a miserable face, and a hatred arose in her heart, she didn't blame others, not even Concubine Su, she hated herself for being useless, "If Xue is here, she will definitely not let Miss have anything to do..."Ruoyun finally couldn't help but sob.

Seeing this, Rong He immediately held her shoulder and comforted: "Ruoyun, it's none of your business, Concubine Su is so unreasonable and ruthless that no one expected, don't blame yourself, everyone is at fault, and I, as a housekeeper, am even more responsible, don't cry, Miss will be fine..."

When Rong He said the last sentence, his voice was a lot lower, because he didn't believe it himself, Jiang Mei was seriously injured first, and he didn't take good care of himself, and he relied on a jade gelatin pill to support the battle of Jingzhou. After returning to Beijing, due to Ruoxue's death, her body and mind were devastated, and Jiang Mei's body was no longer as good as usual. And now after such a freeze, I am afraid that the consequences are unpredictable, but otherwise, at least the root of the disease will be branded.

At this time, Ying'er brought in the boiled soup, and saw that Jiang Mei had fallen asleep and was not easy to disturb, so she had to warm the medicine again, and she sat by the stove with them to guard Jiang Mei.

At noon the next day, Jiang Mei finally woke up, she opened her eyes slightly, her mind was also extraordinarily clear, she felt more comfortable and comfortable than ever before, she seemed to have a dream, and that dream was related to Xiao Moheng,

She vaguely felt that she was sleeping in his arms, and when she woke up, the person also woke up, and she let out a long sigh of relief, as if she had not slept so comfortably for a long time.

Ruoyun was overjoyed when she saw that she had finally woken up, and immediately helped her sit up, but Jiang Mei suddenly sneezed, which scared Ruoyun, and sure enough, she still caught a cold.

After Jiang Mei woke up, Jiuzhu and Rong He immediately entered the house to see her, and the two of them were ready to see Jiang Mei's sick look, but to their surprise, Jiang Mei seemed to have a good complexion except for a few sneezes, and her body did not look weak as expected.

At this time, Lingshu walked in with a bowl of medicine, and after receiving the news, he rushed over early in the morning, and took advantage of Jiang Mei's failure to wake up, so he personally boiled a bowl of carefully prepared decoction.

He saw that Jiang Mei was already sitting on the bed, and his heart was also relieved, Ruoyun immediately caught his medicine bowl, and he stepped forward to check Jiang Mei's pulse.

Jiang Mei did not hesitate, lay down obediently, and then stretched out her hand to let him diagnose well.

Rong He and the others kept staring at Lingshu's expression, as if they wanted to see some clues from his expression, they saw that Lingshu's face was calm at first, but gradually frowned, and several of them immediately followed him to wrinkle their brows, worried that Jiang Mei was very sick.

Who knew that after Lingshu took the pulse for a while, he turned around and said to a few people: "Miss is fine, but she has a little cold!" Lingshu's tone was still a little incredulous, it seemed that he didn't expect Jiang Mei to survive this.

Rong He and Jiuzhu were stunned, everyone in the house had already prepared for the worst, and as a result, Jiang Mei's condition was much better than expected.

Rong He immediately smiled, "Okay, that's good, it's just a little cold, it shouldn't be a big problem...."As long as Jiang Mei is fine, everyone's hearts that have been hanging all night have also been relieved, and now the most worrying thing in the entire Jiang Mansion is Jiang Mei's body,

Director Luo of Yiyun Pavilion had already said that their task was to protect Jiang Mei, take care of her body, and not let her have anything to do. In addition to Jiuzhu, who regards protecting Jiang Mei as his life, the heaviest burden is obviously Ronghe. So he was really relieved to hear the news.

They didn't know that all this should be attributed to Xiao Moheng, it was Xiao Moheng who arrived in time and used his body to warm Jiang Mei's body. Otherwise, this frail eldest lady really doesn't know what to do now.

Jiang Mei glanced at a few people speechlessly, and saw that they were each immersed in a relieved look, so she had to helplessly stand up and sit up, and then slowly picked up the medicine boiled by the spirit and drank it by herself.

After a few people in the room noticed this, Jiang Mei was almost drunk, so the three of them looked at each other and smiled, even Jiuzhu, who had always spoken little and had a cold face, also felt funny, so the three of them agreed that their eldest lady not only made people can't help but respect and love her. And let people pity her. At the moment she is like a child who is left unattended. nested aside and obediently drank the decoction. It's like a child of a few years old.

Xiao Mocheng, who had been thinking about it behind closed doors in the house, also knew the news after lunch, and he was immediately angry, the first and only time he felt that his mother had gone too far, and he knew Jiang Mei's physical condition very well. So he couldn't care about anything. Immediately pulled out his legs and let Ming Huan drive a carriage. Run to Jiangmei's Jiangfu.

Of course, apparently, he was angered by Rong He on the grounds that the young lady was not in good health and was inconvenient to meet customers. Blocked outside Jiang Mei's main house, Xiao Mocheng glanced at Jiang Mei's house from afar, sighed helplessly, turned around and left, the dignified Royal Highness of the Nine Emperor Princes, the invincible demon king of the capital, was closed for the first time, and was blocked out of the house by a housekeeper, which was really an extremely humiliating thing, but Xiao Mocheng didn't expect this at all, and he could see from the faces of the others that Jiang Mei must be very sick. Therefore, the anger in his heart towards his mother and concubine increased again.

On the second day, Su Jin and Su Weixin of Su Mansion also understood the whole story, since Su Jin had promised to let Xiao Mocheng marry Jiang Mei, he had to try to persuade Concubine Su, just like that, Su Weixin went to Concubine Su's palace on the third day on the grounds of visiting Concubine Su's illness.

discussed Xiao Mocheng's marriage with them in front of Emperor Xiao. In the end, after several arguments, it was decided to let Xiao Mocheng marry Jiang Mei as a side concubine, and only marry her for the time being. Su Weixin and Emperor Xiao meant to follow his wishes first, and then plan the affairs of Concubine Zheng in the future. And Su Weixin's heart was thinking that after Xiao Mocheng succeeded to the throne, the affairs of the harem would not be up to Xiao Mocheng.

In this way, the matter of Xiao Mocheng and Jiang Mei was quietly settled under the discussion of Emperor Xiao, Concubine Su and Su Weixin, Su Weixin went to Yuwang's Mansion that day, and carefully told Xiao Mocheng about the power, and finally persuaded Xiao Mocheng to agree to marry her as a side concubine, in order not to cause unnecessary controversy, Emperor Xiao decreed that this should not be announced in advance, and the entire marriage will also be planned after the year,

In the past, the marriage of each prince was decided by the emperor and some ministers of the family, and it seemed that it was not the prince's turn to call the shots, but Xiao Mocheng obviously took the initiative in this battle, and it can also be seen how much Emperor Xiao, Concubine Su and Su Fu favored him. But all this is Xiao Mocheng's wishful thinking. Naturally, if he marries any woman, as long as Dahuan has the final say at the highest level, it will be a sure thing, but he wants to marry the most difficult woman in the entire Dahuan to marry, so the result is not yet known, but Xiao Mocheng naturally doesn't know this, so he is still happy not to know why.

Hua Ying's night in the palace was a little sad, so she meditated on the piano in the Leyu Pavilion alone.

"Kid, why are you coming back......"

An old and crying voice came from behind her, Hua Ying was suddenly startled, and hurriedly got up and looked back. I saw a wrinkled, thin old woman, standing beside the curtain trembling slightly.

"Who are you?" Hua Ying's first reaction blurted out.

I saw the old lady shaking her head and walking towards her with tears on her face, "Ying'er, I'm Granny Ge..."

However, Granny Ge thought about it, Hua Ying was still too young at that time, only two years old, and the little lady had not yet been born. The past is unbearable, and when I think that I have been in a corner of the palace for 20 years, I haven't even seen the eldest princess for the last time.

For so many years, she has become accustomed to hiding alone in that dilapidated hut and crying, for the unjustly killed eldest princess's family, for the humiliating years of living for herself.

The only thing to be thankful for is that Rui Yang is still by her side. Rui Yang would visit her in that room in the dead of night, and the eldest princess and Rui Yang managed to save her life by placing her in an abandoned courtyard in the palace, so that she could escape the pursuit of the Su family.

And the eldest princess, in order not to let people find out about her existence, never saw her again. And she can only get the news of the princess's family through Ruiyang. When she heard that the eldest princess had given birth to a young lady, she was so overjoyed and glad that she had prepared a lot of clothes for the child. It's a pity that she hasn't seen the child once.

It wasn't until late at night that Rui Yang told her with a dead face that the eldest princess's family had all died unjustly, and she collapsed like the sky and the earth were falling apart in an instant. Since then, she has been ill, and it is Ruiyang's encouragement that has allowed her to live to this day.

And she and Rui Yang have supported it until now, and they have also sworn to avenge the eldest princess. And in the entire palace, only she and Rui Yang knew that Hua Ying was not the real Yun Yueyao, and only the two of them knew that it was Su Jin and Concubine Su who forced the eldest princess's family to death.

"Granny Ge?" Hua Ying looked at this somewhat rickety old woman dumbfounded. It was as if it was rigid for a while. Although she didn't remember Granny Ge at all, her aunt often mentioned that Granny Ge was like a sister to her, but every time she talked about it, Grandma would be sad.

"Aren't you already..." Hua Ying still couldn't believe that what she saw in front of her was the real Granny Ge.

Granny Ge shook her head. Approaching her, he said, "I'm not dead. I'm alive. It's just been hiding in the palace..."As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket, slowly opened the handkerchief, and handed the fish-shaped jade pendant in the handkerchief to Hua Ying.

Hua Ying stared at the jade pendant that was too familiar to be more familiar. Tears burst out of her eyes in an instant, and her grandmother also had an identical jade pendant, and she also gently took out the jade pendant in her arms, compared it with it, and found that this jade pendant was a pair.

Hua Ying immediately raised her head, stepped forward to hug Granny Ge, and murmured, "Mother-in-law... They were all dead, only I was alive....Mother...."Hua Ying sobbed, "Mother managed to save me...... Everyone else committed suicide...... The fire burned them to the ground......."

Granny Ge gently patted her back and comforted, "Granny knows... Mother-in-law knows you've suffered all these years......"

The two comforted each other for a long time, until they both gradually calmed down.

"Child, it's dangerous in the palace....you must not stay long!" After Granny Ge cried, she immediately reminded Hua Yingdao.

Hua Ying was startled, a little inexplicable, "What is the reason?" Could it be that someone in the palace wants to harm me? Hua Ying thought that Emperor Xiao took care of her in every way, and Concubine Su and the queen were also quite attentive, and they didn't seem to be hostile to her.

Granny Ge knew that she didn't understand the key, so she pulled her to sit down and explained to her carefully: "Child, I have time to tell you more carefully, but what you need to know is that you must guard against Concubine Su and the Su family, because the eldest princess's family was forced to death by Su Jin." ”

The more Hua Ying listened, the more confused she became, "The Yun family and the Su family have no grievances, why do you want to kill the princess?" ”

Granny Ge burst into tears, thinking that she couldn't hide it from her, so she said: "Hua Ying, this matter started twenty years ago, twenty years ago, when the princess and I entered the palace, we accidentally broke the matter of Concubine Su executing a personal maid next to her, and the princess and I learned that the Nine Emperors were not born at all, but the blood of Emperor Ming, Concubine Su forced the princess to kill me, and the princess let people replace me, but Concubine Su and Su Jin were angry after all, presumably, it was Su Jin who later forced hundreds of people in the princess's mansion to death by taking advantage of the general's affairs......." Granny Ge closed her eyes and was sadto cover up all the sorrow and sorrow in the cloudy eyes.

Hua Ying was like five thunderbolts in an instant, staring at Granny Ge half-dumbfounded, and slowly digested this shocking news in her heart.

"Su Jin....it turned out to be his old fox..."Hua Ying gritted her teeth fiercely, "and Concubine Su, no matter how you look at it, she looks like a favorite concubine who doesn't know the world, how do you know that her methods are so ruthless." ”

"Hua Ying, don't mess with them, it's not the time yet!" Granny Ge reminded again and again.

Hua Ying was stunned and said, "Mother-in-law, I understand, mother-in-law, don't worry, I will protect myself, and ask my mother-in-law to live for me... I will let Su Jin die a good death..."Hua Ying's eyes were resentful, and she gritted her teeth.

"No, don't mess around, you're not Su Jin's opponent, don't underestimate Concubine Su, they're not what you imagined..."

Hua Ying understood what Granny Ge meant, so she also comforted Granny Ge with a chuckle: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, I won't act rashly, I have a sense of proportion..."

"Where does my mother-in-law live now?" Hua Ying asked gently, still thinking about whether she could find a way to let someone take care of her.

Granny Ge knew her intentions and felt that something was wrong, so she shook her head and said, "Child, don't worry about my business, don't worry, I'm fine!" ”

Anyway, there is Rui Yang, who has been hiding for so many years, and no one would have thought that she was still alive.

"It's getting late, it's time for me to go back." Granny Ge got up slowly, and when she left, she commanded again: "Listen to Aunt Ruiyang's arrangements in the palace..."

Hua Ying pulled her up, nodded, and quietly watched her go away. It's just that after Granny Ge left, another figure hidden in the temple also quietly left.

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, Emperor Xiao decreed that Hua Ying was named the lord of Jian'an, and sent someone to send Hua Ying back to Mu Mansion. Because of the Yun family's affairs, Emperor Xiao is not easy to disclose Hua Ying's identity, and the world only knows that Hua Ying was named the county lord, but does not know the situation.

When the people of the Marquis Mansion heard the news, they were even more excited than the New Year, if Hua Ying and her concubine still lacked an identity before, then now they have the qualifications to be upright. Because Mu Mansion and the Yun family already had a marriage contract, and learned that Pei Yan was the leader of the Yun family's affairs back then, the Mu Mansion treated Hua Ying better than Pei Lanying.

Mu Xiaohe seemed quite calm, because only he knew that he was not marrying the real Yun Yueyao. (To be continued......)
