Ye Qinglan smiled, and her tone naturally revealed confidence: "In front of me, she will never be able to tell half a lie." ”

Gu Xinian looked at her and didn't speak for a long time.

cured Gu Xiyu's loneliness, cured Queen Gu's anxiety and insomnia, and now she said such things, what kind of secret does she have?

Facing Gu Xinian's deep gaze, Ye Qinglan was very calm: "I can't explain it to you, but I can assure you that as long as I see that little peach, I will definitely be able to ask the truth of the matter from her mouth." After a pause, he said: "Even the crown princess is willing to believe that I have to try, why are you unwilling?" ”

Gu Xinian's eyes darkened, and he said slowly: "Because I don't want anyone to be suspicious of you." ”

Ye Qinglan was stunned.

"Your background is only clear to me and Mencius." Gu Xinian subconsciously lowered his voice: "I know that you have secrets that no one knows, and I won't get to the bottom of it." Meng Zijun will also keep it a secret for you. But have you ever thought about it, others will not be so tolerant of you. What do they think when they notice something unusual about you? The previous entry into the palace has already made the queen suspicious, if you have contact with Xiao Tao again, how can the prince and the princess not be suspicious? Where you are useful now, they may not ask much about anything. But once this matter is over, it is hard to guarantee that they will not think about it too much......"

Being analyzed by him like this, Ye Qinglan's mind gradually calmed down, knowing that what Gu Xinian said made sense, but she still couldn't help muttering: "Let me watch Shen Qiuyu make waves and do nothing, I can't help it!" ”

Gu Xinian tugged at the corners of his lips. A chill flashed in her eyes: "She calculates others, but even you." I will never let her go! After a pause, he said, "You don't know the prince. The matter has become a foregone conclusion, with his character. I will never release the little peach again. If the crown princess really opened her mouth to persuade him, it would only make Xiao Tao die faster! ”

Ye Qinglan gasped: "This is a living human life......

"Silly girl!" Gu Xinian seemed to be amused by her reaction, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "In the eyes of the superiors, what can the life of a maid count. In order to achieve the goal, even if more people die, they will not blink. ”

Ye Qinglan's heart was filled with a chill. There has never been a moment that has made her more aware of the gap between the times. What respect and what democracy is a fantasy, this is a hierarchical feudal society, although it is not said that human life is regarded as a mustard, but in the eyes of the superiors, human life is just a chess piece......

Gu Xinian said lightly: "This matter has successfully planted a stolen substance for Concubine Zheng Guifei. And it also alarmed the emperor. Concubine Zheng was speechless. This loss is settled. The emperor doesn't say anything in his mouth, and he won't feel nothing in his heart. In the next few days, Zheng Guifei will inevitably be snubbed. With such a result, the queen and the crown prince didn't know how satisfied they were. How can you be willing to make waves again? Even if there is only one point that can be found by Concubine Zheng or the third prince, it is definitely not something they are willing to see. In such a situation, it is also obvious what the prince will choose to do.

She really thought too simple about this......

Ye Qinglan was silent.

Gu Xinian paused, and said meaningfully: "Also." Do you really think that the queen and the crown prince are so easy to deceive? ”

Ye Qinglan savored the meaning of his words, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became: "What do you mean......" Could it be that Shen Qiuyu's trick of planting blame actually failed to really hide from Queen Gu and the crown prince?

Gu Xinian tugged at the corners of his lips, but there was not much smile in his eyes: "There are some things, it doesn't matter what the truth is. What matters is what people want to believe. ”

Therefore, when the prince talked about the so-called "truth", his reaction was so flat. Didn't even ask a word more.

Ye Qinglan was completely dumbfounded, and had to admit it to herself. In the face of concealment calculations, she is indeed a step behind.

Gu Xinian saw her like this. With a soft heart, he stretched his arms and hugged her into his arms, and whispered: "To deal with people like her, you have to use the same method to calculate back." She already has the upper hand in this game, so she will be proud for a while. There will always be a day when she regrets it! ”

Ye Qinglan's mind was chaotic, and she subconsciously asked: "However, the crown princess has already discussed with me, saying that she will definitely persuade the crown prince." If that's what you say, then the prince ......"

"You don't have to worry about that." Gu Xinian patted Ye Qinglan's back soothingly: "The crown princess is not a stupid person, and she will not make the prince unhappy." This matter, for the time being, is settled. To settle accounts, there will be opportunities in the future. ”

When it came to the last sentence, there was a hint of coldness in the words.

How Shen Qiuyu calculated that the crown princess and Concubine Lin Fang was none of his business, but when Ye Qinglan was involved, he couldn't tolerate it. One day, he will recover this account with interest!

Two days later, the crown princess sent her personal maid Mingyue to deliver a message.

“…… The crown princess ordered the slave maid to tell you that Xiao Tao had a sudden illness and recuperated in the grange for a few days, but she still couldn't get through it. Mingyue cautiously chose her words: "It was gone last night." ”

…… Gu Xinian's guess was really true!

Ye Qinglan had mixed feelings in her heart, and she couldn't tell what it was like for a while. recalled that Xiao Tao's face was actually blurred, but she only remembered that she was a delicate and smiling maid, and she seemed to be very favored by Concubine Lin. It's a pity that he was involved in such a conspiracy, and such a fresh life withered in a blink of an eye. Even if Xiao Tao is not innocent, her heart is still heavy.

Thinking of the palace maid who didn't even know her name and became a substitute for the dead ghost, her mood was even more complicated and indescribable.

Mingyue is Mo's henchman, and she obviously knows something inside. Seeing Ye Qinglan's delicate expression, she cautiously comforted: "Everyone has their own life, this is probably Xiao Tao's life, and the young grandmother doesn't need to worry about it." Perhaps, Xiao Tao's death is a complete relief. ”

A traitor like Xiao Tao, even if Concubine Lin didn't have a chance to make a move, how could the Mo family spare her? and Shen Qiuyu, let alone rest assured that such a living mouth is still in the world. Xiao Tao's fate was doomed as early as the day she was bought by Shen Qiuyu......

Ye Qinglan relied on her smart mind and good popularity, and easily dealt with the Xue family, after getting married, her in-laws and sisters-in-law all liked her, and with Gu Xinian's wholehearted care, her life was indeed smooth. Inevitably, I feel a little proud. But life taught her a solid lesson, let her see the darkness behind the prosperous life, and also let her see the weakness and helplessness of her own strength......

Ye Qinglan waved away her chaotic thoughts, cheered up and smiled: "You're right, I'm thinking too much." Putting aside this matter, he asked about Mo's recent situation: "Is the crown princess's body better?" ”

Mingyue changed the topic very cooperatively: "The residual poison in the princess's body has almost been removed, but her body is still weak, and she lies in bed every day." All the trivial matters in the house are taken care of by Concubine Shen. After a pause, he added: "Concubine Shen will personally serve the crown princess every day to drink medicine and eat, and even His Royal Highness the crown prince praises her." ”

This is undoubtedly telling sù that Shen Qiuyu's superficial kung fu is very good, and he is very good at pleasing the prince. Now in the inner courtyard of the prince's mansion, it is already Shen Qiuyu's world.

Ye Qinglan was noncommittal, just smiled faintly. Sooner or later, there will be a tough battle between her and Shen Qiuyu, but not now.

Gu Xinian is right, there are some things that don't have to be rushed. Once you are impatient, you will inevitably do something wrong and be caught by the other party. What she has to do now is to wait patiently and look for the most suitable opportunity......

Mingyue didn't stay long, and quickly left.

After Mingyue left, Ye Qinglan's smile quietly disappeared from her eyes, and she sat in a daze for a long time. She sat there alone, her eyebrows frowned slightly, her expression was a little abrupt, and her body exuded inexplicable loneliness and loneliness.

Ruixue came in quietly, Ruomei came in twice, and even Guiyuan came in twice. But no one bothered Ye Qinglan.

Gui Yuan quietly pulled Rui Xue aside and asked, "Sister Rui Xue, what's wrong with Miss?" Did you quarrel with your son? ”

Rui Xue shook her head: "There shouldn't be, these days, the prince has treated the young lady very well." After thinking about it, he said: "In the afternoon, Mingyue beside the crown princess came, and I don't know what she said to Miss, and Miss hasn't spoken since she left." ”

Gui Yuan thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't get the point.

Rui Xue vaguely guessed something, but she didn't dare to be sure, so she just whispered: "When the prince comes back, it will be good to persuade the young lady to say a few words, and we don't have to worry too much." ”

As he was talking, Gu Xinian's figure appeared in front of him.

The two maids hurriedly stopped whispering and stepped forward to salute Gu Xinian together. Gu Xinian hummed casually, and asked casually, "You two are not serving the young grandmother in the house, why did you come here to gossip?" ”

Gui Yuan immediately hurriedly replied: "The princess's maid Mingyue came in the afternoon, and after leaving, the young grandmother has been silent, as if she is very unhappy."

Before the words fell, Gu Xinian had already walked quickly towards the house.

The door was blankly hidden, and with a little force it was pushed open.

Ye Qinglan sat with her back to the door, with a slightly thin back, and even a little depressed.

Gu Xinian unconsciously stopped, looking at her back with a complicated expression, with both pity and inexplicable heaviness in his heart-

Today I promised to take my daughter to the park to play, and there is only one change~ If you come back early, you can rush out, and you will have another chapter before eight o'clock. It's not past eight o'clock, and it's gone~ (To be continued......)
