After Zhong Ziyuan left, Liu Yuqing drank away from the maids and mother-in-law around him, leaving only Mrs. Liu alone. She lowered her head and twisted the handkerchief in her hand, and after a long time, she asked abruptly, "Mother, do you and Sister Ziyuan have something to hide from me?" ”

Mrs. Liu heard the faint sadness in her tone, and felt sad in her heart. She tried her best to maintain the smile on her face, and said in a brisk tone: "You kid loves to be cranky, and I haven't seen Ziyuan for a long time, and I haven't said a few words, what can I hide from you?" ”

Liu Yuqing's hand was stunned, she fixed her mind and raised her head, looked at Mrs. Liu quietly with a pair of deep eyes, and said word by word: "Mother has always treated Sister Ziyuan very well, and she will never speak harshly to her like today." Coupled with the fact that Sister Ziyuan was also obscure in her speech before, I guessed that you must have something to hide from me. ”

After a pause, she said sincerely: "I know that my mother does everything for me. But if it's really for my good, you shouldn't stand in the way of Sister Aster's words. You want to hide everything from me, and if these troubles don't break out until I marry into Prince Rui's mansion, won't I be even more helpless. ”

Mrs. Liu only felt a heartache, she bit her lip fiercely, until she tasted a faint fishy smell, and then said with difficulty: "Yuqing, you listen to your mother"

Liu Yuqing interrupted her and continued to speculate: "But because Prince Rui was forced by the emperor and the pressure of the queen mother to marry me, in fact, he has no affection for me?" Or maybe he already had a woman he liked, but he couldn't be accepted as a princess because of his identity, so his mother and sister Ziyuan were afraid that I would be wronged if I entered Prince Rui's mansion? ”

She sighed abruptly. said: "Actually, I have already figured out this, Prince Rui has not seen me, and he rejected the marriage proposal before." This time, he must be willing to marry me just to make the Queen Mother happy. ”

Her eyes couldn't help but fall on the beautiful wedding dress, her heart was dull and painful, and she smiled miserably: "It doesn't matter, as long as he is willing to give me this opportunity, I will definitely live a good life with him!" As for the woman he likes, it's a big deal that after the wedding, I will be the master to admit her into the door. In the future, I will serve the prince well with her. ”

Mrs. Liu looked at her obviously fragile but pretending to be strong, and her slender body that seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind, and her heart couldn't help but feel sour. Thinking of blind concealment is for Liu Yuqing. It's not necessarily a good thing, Mrs. Liu finally said: "That's right, it's right to live a good life." Yuqing, you have to know. Most of the couples in this world are ordered by their parents. According to the matchmaker's words, few couples fell in love with each other before they got married.

Those white-headed covenants, mountain alliances and sea oaths are all made up in the script to deceive people. Especially with the identity of Prince Rui, his concubine can only be done by a noble-born woman like you, and other women outside, even if they are Ye Meisu and others, are at most concubines in the room, and even side concubines can't get it. As long as you can give birth to a son-in-law as soon as possible after entering Prince Rui's mansion, you don't have to be afraid of anything. You see that your father's concubines are all young and beautiful, but who dares to play tricks in front of me. The child I gave birth to had to call me my grandmother honestly. ”

Liu Yuqing couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Mother, I haven't married yet!" Have you begun to teach me how to control concubines, concubines, concubines, etc.? ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Liu hated that iron could not become steel, she couldn't help but stretch out her finger coated with red kodan, poked it Liu Yuqing's head, and said hatefully: "Speaking of which, these are what you should have learned a long time ago, but you are always arrogant and refuse to pay attention to them, even if I want to teach at this time, how can you understand the essence of it." If you really learned these methods, now I don't have to worry about it. ”

Liu Yuqing smiled proudly and said, "Mother, you don't have to worry. If I am blessed, I will naturally be valued and loved by the prince. If I am a blessed person, then I am the princess Rui who is personally appointed by the imperial decree, at most, I will live a quiet life with a heart, and no one she will be able to go past me. If you secretly play these unseemly tricks in order to compete for favor, it will make the prince look down on him. ”

Mrs. Liu knew that Liu Yuqing's temperament had always been stubborn, and she had to give up. But fortunately, she secretly made a few preparations, and she was confident that she could protect Liu Yuqing's thoughtfulness.

While the mother and daughter were gossiping, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the courtyard, and Mrs. Liu hurriedly stood up and said with a happy face: "It must be that the banquet outside is over, and your father has called someone to urge the hair and makeup." She hurriedly opened the door of the embroidery room and greeted her in person.

Although Liu Yuqing said proudly and calmly, he was young in the end, and he was still panicked and confused when it came to the end. She hurriedly picked up the pink kiln red background yellow peony teacup on the table, put it to her lips and slowly sipped it, trying to suppress the sudden panic in her heart.

I heard a mother-in-law outside shouting in a sharp voice: "Madam, it's not good, Prince Narui suddenly went crazy and ran to the flower hall and beat the prince of Shu." And then he yelled that he was wrong, that he wasn't going to marry our young lady, and then he, he, he"

Mrs. Liu shouted: "Tell me quickly, what happened to him." ”

The mother-in-law patted her thigh and said indignantly: "Prince Rui, he actually rode away alone. Before leaving, he also said that this marriage was over."

Mrs. Liu was angry and shouted sharply: "Nonsense, nonsense, it's just nonsense." Is the marriage of the royal gift something that he can do if he says it, and does he want to be a joke in the entire Chang'an City? What about the master, the master won't stop him? ”

The mother-in-law lowered her voice and muttered, "The master wants to stop it, but he can't stop it."

The next words, Liu Yuqing couldn't hear clearly, she only felt that the small teacup in her hand seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. She couldn't hold it anymore, and fell on the bluestone paved ground at her feet with a "bang", and was instantly torn apart.

The splattered porcelain shards cut through her socks, leaving a thin scratch on her ankle. A faint trace of blood slowly soaked through the snow-white cloth socks.

She sat in a daze, staring blankly at Mrs. Liu breaking in, watching Mrs. Liu's red lips keep opening and closing in front of her, looking at Mrs. Liu's anxious call, but her ears couldn't hear a word. Her throat felt like it was blocked by thick cotton, and she couldn't utter a syllable. Her heart was overwhelmed by intense pain and a strong sense of shame.

The air around me seemed to be frozen. It made her feel like every breath was so difficult. She opened her mouth, but she didn't make any sound, and then her eyes went black, and she fainted completely.

In the embroidery room, Mrs. Liu's crying and grabbing the ground came out, and the maids and mothers-in-law in Liu Yuqing's yard were panicked and called the doctor. Looking for the master, there are also running around and don't know what to do, and the yard is full of dazzling, luxurious and exquisite. The golden red dowry was ignored at the moment. The cold wind blew hard, and scraped off a lot of the thick edelweiss covering the treetops and eaves. gradually covered up the makeup box cage box all over the ground

The wheels of the carriage gurgled and rolled. The thick orangutan felt separated the carriage tightly, without revealing a single gap, but Zhu Fei's cry of pain still came out from time to time.

Zhu Fei's bewitching face was like knocking over a paint shop at the moment, colorful and colorful. Zhong Ziyuan took the cotton ball and carefully put some hemostatic medicine on the corner of his bruised mouth, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Are you stupid!" Just stand there and let him fight, and if you don't fight back, it's just that. I don't even know how to avoid it. It's still a trivial matter if the corners of the mouth are broken, but how can you get it if you even have your eyes blinded. ”

Zhu Fei half-squinted at the high swollen panda eyes. touched the corners of his mouth that was still aching, and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, I secretly calculated the Queen Mother, and I was already guilty." Let him fight like this, but his heart is more comfortable. ”

He suddenly pursed his lips and smiled, and slowly approached her. Because he was too close, his sparkling phoenix eyes almost turned into ridiculous cross-eyed. Zhong Ziyuan was a little furious by his laughter, she withdrew her hand with a little guard, and tried to lean back to keep a safe distance from him. Only then did he say vigilantly: "If you have something to say, don't pretend to be a ghost here." ”

He squinted his swollen eyes and looked her up and down, and then asked with a strange expression: "Hey, you said that you have no breasts and no fart-stock, what do you look like!" At best, it's just upper-middle. Let's talk about it, how did you get Yi out of Ye Meisu's hands? ”

Zhong Ziyuan looked at him fixedly, and his amber eyes slowly narrowed dangerously. He suddenly became vigilant and tried to duck back, but she quickly stretched out her finger and poked it at the wound on his face.

"Oops! It's going to break the phase. Zhu Fei covered his face in horror and shouted bitterly: "The gentleman doesn't move his mouth." ”

Zhong Ziyuan raised her fingers and smiled proudly: "It's a pity that I am a woman and not a gentleman, haven't you heard that only women and villains are difficult to raise?" ”

Zhu Fei said stupidly: "With such a bad temper, I like to bully patients." I really don't know what Xiao Guozi and Yi have taken a fancy to you. ”

Zhong Ziyuan accepted his stubbornness, sighed slightly, and said, "Don't talk about you, even I don't know how to provoke Prince Shangrui." That's right" She looked at Zhu Fei and asked with a strange expression: "Why do you want to be my lover by default, shouldn't this kind of matter be handed over to the heir?" ”

Zhu Fei put away his banter when he heard this, and after he was silent for a while, he said: "You listen to me about this, since Yi is angry at me, don't involve Xiao Guozi again." Anyway, there is a clear relationship between me and you, everything is his speculation, and if I don't recognize him, there is no actual evidence. But you are different from Xiao Guozi, you have a lot of pigtails for him to grab. The biggest of them was the Liu Mansion Miss Liu Yucicada, but Zhu Fei only dared to muttered secretly in his heart.

Zhong Ziyuan blushed, spat him, and said, "What nonsense!" What little braids. My heir and I are both single, the man is unmarried, the woman is unmarried, where does the pigtail come from? ”

Zhu Fei laughed dryly twice and said, "Don't worry about it, this matter is decided for the time being, anyway, I will never harm you." ”

The originally bright sky was covered by heavy clouds, and it gradually darkened, and the chill became more and more intense. Cining Palace is a warm and quiet, the Queen Mother is getting better and better, she has long hair, holding a purple gold flying flower hand warmer, standing under the window and looking at the beautiful scenery outside covered in silver quietly.

Empress Guo personally held a hot bird's nest porridge and said with a smile: "What does the Queen Mother think?" The body is better, and I am careful to be blown by the wind leaking from under the window, and I am afraid that it will cause a headache again. ”

The Queen Mother smiled, left the window and returned to the long collapse to sit down, and sighed: "These days, thanks to the Zhongyuan envoy's daily acupuncture and massage, the attack of head wind is not so frequent. After a pause, she said with great relief: "It's just that I think that today is a good day for Yi'er to take the expedition, and I am very relieved in my heart." It's a pity that I can't see this kind of excitement with my own eyes, and I really feel a little regretful. ”

Empress Guo sneered and said, "What is there to see about Na Zheng, it will be really lively when the wedding is held seven days later." When Prince Shi Rui takes his princess to kowtow to you, you will have no regrets if you reward you generously. I'm afraid that after the Queen Mother gets this little daughter-in-law, she won't hurt me anymore. ”

"The monkey is poor." The Queen Mother couldn't help but smile and said, "It just so happens that I am a little hungry in my belly, so I don't bring bird's nest porridge yet." ”

Empress Guo lamented: "Alas! The eldest daughter-in-law is only worthy of serving some soup and water, which shows that it is not painful. ”

The Queen Mother couldn't hold back her smile anymore, pointed at Queen Guo and shouted with a smile: "Tear her mouth quickly, I haven't done anything yet, she is waiting for me with a full stomach!" ”

The female official next to the Queen Mother smiled and joked: "It's really pitiful, the Queen Mother, you will appreciate the face of the Queen Mother!" ”

The Queen Mother was in a very good mood, thought about it, and ordered: "Go, open the treasury, take out the statue of Guanyin, the son of the warm jade carving of Lantian, and send it to the Kunning Palace of the Queen Mother." ”

"Yes." Immediately, a palace maid agreed and retreated.

Empress Guo bowed down with a surprised face: "Son, thank the Empress Dowager for the reward!" ”

The Queen Mother held Empress Guo's hand again, patted the back of her white and smooth hand, and said gently: "I know that you always feel that the prince is too lonely, and you want to give him another royal brother or royal sister." It's a pity that the emperor is busy with government affairs, and the time to go to your place is very small, so it can't be done. Today I will give you this extremely precious Guanyin, this piece of Lantian warm jade from overseas, extremely rare. In addition to the warmth of its tentacles, it also has a great benefit, and it is said that women have the miraculous effect of warming the palace after getting along with it for a long time. When the uterus is warm, it is naturally easier to conceive. The Queen Mother has given it to you now, just in the hope that you can spread more branches for the royal family, do you think this reward is good? ”

The Queen Mother's words suddenly made Queen Guo smile, and she said with a smile like a flower: "Originally, I just looked at the Queen Mother's ocean dew and was very greedy, and I wanted to take the opportunity to ask for a pot to go back to Kunning Palace to raise." I didn't expect the Queen Mother to give me such a rare thing, which made my sons a little ashamed. ”

"You monkey, you get cheap and sell well. A mere pot of flowers can be compared to my Lantian warm jade? The Queen Mother glanced at the high table where the dew of the ocean was originally placed, and said with some regret: "After all, the flower is from overseas, or it is not suitable for our climate, you see, now there are only two pots left, and the rest of the pots have withered, what a pity." ”

Queen Guo hurriedly said: "If the Queen Mother likes it, let the prince of Shu go and find a few more pots to come back, it's not worth anything." ”

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Let's talk about it!" After all, this flower cultivation also pays attention to a fate. ”

While speaking, a eunuch came in and reported: "Prince Rui is asking to see him outside the palace." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at the copper kettle, frowned and wondered: "Why did he come at this hour?" Let Prince Rui come in" (to be continued......)
