Chapter 790: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada and the Yellow Finch (2)
"Mother, what should I do now, the people in the house haven't come out, should we go in?" Ma asked.
"Go in, what are you doing when you go in, let people guard it, how can this kind of thing get in!" Mrs. Ye hates the way that iron does not become steel.
The prince is doing such a thing inside, how dare they, the family members of the subordinates, dare to go in casually and disturb the prince's Yaxing, isn't this uncomfortable for themselves!
"Then, then, what about the princess?" Ma glanced at the direction of the stage with some weakness.
Mrs. Ye was also speechless for a while, she didn't know what to do, at this time, she couldn't tell the princess, what is your husband talking to other women, isn't it uncomfortable!
However, if they don't say anything now, and the princess knows about it, she may not be able to tell how she will be angry with them, and maybe she will think that their family and the Xiang family have done this thing together.
Mrs. Ye knows that although this Prince An is powerful, this Princess An is not a vegetarian, she is the lord of Anyang, whether it is her mother or her family, she is a powerful person, and she is a well-known emperor's henchman.
Moreover, this master has a huge property at a young age, and Mrs. Ye is also a person who has eaten salt for decades, can you still understand that this Princess An must be a powerful person, otherwise where did this huge leisurely residence come from!
Therefore, she knew that if she offended this master, it would not be a joke, maybe it would be more troublesome than offending the prince!
Mrs. Ye thought about it again and again, looked at the realm of the elegant room where the prince and they were, and finally gritted her teeth. He muttered a few words in Ma's ear.
Ma nodded when he heard this, then turned to leave.
Ruoyun, who was still talking to Ye Mingzhu here, didn't know anything about the things ahead.
At this time, a little maid walked over from the corner with her head down, walked behind Dong Hong and Dong Lan who were standing in Ruoyun, gently pulled Dong Hong's sleeve and said, "Can this sister take a step to speak!" ”
Donghong frowned and didn't know who this girl was, and how she thought her behavior was sneaky, so she had the heart to ignore it.
The little girl saw that Donghong ignored her, and she was a little anxious, but Mrs. said that she must spread the word, if she can't pass it, she can't eat and walk around!
"This sister. Slaves have no ill will. It's just to help people pass on a word, my sister must believe it! The little girl said anxiously.
Dong Hong looked at her anxious appearance, and she was even more puzzled in her heart, thinking that there must be something strange about this. So I glared at her and ignored her.
Dong Hong was already full of momentum. At this time, he glared at the girl. The frightened girl almost cried, but she didn't dare to open her mouth or leave.
It happened that the night pearl was talking to Ruoyun at this time. Turning his head to see this girl, he couldn't help but wonder: "Hey, isn't this the pearl in my grandmother's yard, why is it here?" ”
"Back to the second girl, someone sent a message to this one from the slave maid in front of me!" When the pearl heard the second girl ask, she quickly replied respectfully.
At the same time, this question must have alarmed Ruoyun, Ruoyun turned to Dong Hong and said, "In that case, you can see what she has to say!" ”
Dong Hong nodded, and then followed the relieved pearl to a place where no one was.
"This sister, there was a little father-in-law who asked the slave maid to help spread the word, saying that the prince's clothes were covered with wine, and the princess's sister in front of her helped Zhang Luo to get a new one!" The pearl was said word for word according to the master's explanation.
Dong Hong couldn't help frowning when she heard this, and said, "Are you sure which father-in-law is following our prince?" ”
"Yes, yes, today the slave maid has seen this father-in-law following the prince!" Pearl nodded, "This is my sister, the slave's words have already arrived, and the slave has something to do first!" ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Dong Hong to say anything, turned around and ran away.
Dong Hong looked at her background, a thoughtful look in her eyes, she could be sure that this girl was lying.
Because several of them who serve the princess of the princess know that the princess never likes women to approach her (except for her own princess, of course), so even if they serve the princess closely, they will never take the initiative to serve the princess.
The things that serve the prince are all done by Xing'an, and the rest of the general things are done by the prince himself, or the princess himself.
For example, the spare clothes for the banquet are all handed over to Xing'an, and it is also Xing'an's business to serve the prince to change his clothes, and they never care about it.
Some of the most confidants in the palace know about this matter, but outsiders don't know, so the girl named Pearl just now asked Donghong to wait for the prince to change his clothes, which seems to be the same as the rules of ordinary big families, but it is not the rules of King An's mansion, so she lied.
However, Dong Hong couldn't figure out why this pearl was lying to deceive her, what was the purpose, was it just to lure her away, so that it would be unfavorable to the princess, and whether the deception was too low-level!
Dong Hong returned to Ruoyun's side, and repeated what Pearl said to Ruoyun, because there were many people here and Dong Hong didn't say anything else, but Ruoyun paused slightly when he heard this, but there was a little more understanding in his eyes.
"Since then, in this case, you can go to the front yard and take a look, and help Xing'an Zhang Luo Zhang Luo!" Ruoyun said.
Dong Hong took the order, thinking in his heart, when he went to the front yard, he must observe and observe what was going on, and he didn't forget to give Dong Lan a cautious look when he left.
Dong Hong went to the front yard, and then searched for a long time, but she didn't find Xing'an, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
What's going on, I can't see my own prince in the hall, and I haven't seen Xing'an, Dong Hong pulled a subordinate of the Ye family and asked, "Have you seen our prince?" ”
When the subordinate heard this, he knew that it was someone from King An's Mansion, and his attitude was a little more respectful, "Back girl, it seems that the prince's clothes were dirty during the banquet just now, and I am afraid that I went to the private room to change my clothes at this time!" ”
"That's my father-in-law who saw us in front of me!" Dong Hong asked with a frown.
"Which father-in-law, the slave didn't pay attention. At that time, it seemed that the subordinates in our house took the prince's go! Dong Hong "chuckled" in her heart when she heard this, and she had a bad premonition.
"Then do you know where the prince is going, can you lead the way!" Dong Hong asked.
"Yes, the slave will take the girl over!" The man readily agreed.
It's just that when the subordinates of this Ye Mansion took Dong Hong to the private room where the male guests were resting, they inquired around there, but found that the prince was not here at all, and when he asked others. But I don't know what to ask!
Dong Hong suddenly became anxious. said angrily to the subordinates of the Ye family: "Find it for me, if the prince has any problems, no one can save you!" ”
The subordinates of the Ye family were also afraid, and a group of people hurriedly inquired. But someone will come back and tell Donghong later. The prince did not come to the elegant room here. Instead, he went to a private room in another place, where he was confined, and I think it was because the person who led the way thought that the environment was good there and brought the prince there.
Listening to the words of the people of the Ye Mansion. Dong Hong was furious in her heart, she didn't care if the environment was good or bad, she stretched out her hand and pointed at the man: "Lead the way ahead!" ”
The man was intimidated by Dong Hong's momentum, and didn't dare to say anything more, so he obediently led the way in front and took her to the right place.
When Donghong arrived, Mrs. Ye and her two daughters-in-law were already here, and when she saw that Donghong was finally here, she was relieved and nervous at the same time, mainly because it was difficult to speak!
"Miss Donghong, you're finally here, how good is this!" Mrs. Ye pretended to be anxious, came up and pulled Dong Hong and said, in fact, she is not really pretending, she is really anxious in her heart!
"What does Mrs. Ye mean by this?" Dong Hong's eyes looked sharply at Mrs. Ye.
Rao is Mrs. Ye has been a three-grade lady for so many years, and at this time, she was glanced at by Dong Hong, and her heart was cold!
"Wang, the prince is resting in this room, but I don't know what's going on, the girl from the Xiang family has also entered this room, and she has been going for more than a quarter of an hour, what do you say about this!" Mrs. Ye was vague, but also to weaken their Ye family's negligence.
"Mrs. Ye, what did you say?" Dong Hong was shocked when she heard this, and couldn't help but snort.
"This, this, the prince and the girl Xiang have been in the room for a long time!" Mrs. Ye was drunk by Dong Hong, and she was also a little dissatisfied in her heart, no matter how she said it, she was also the fate of Sanpin, this Dong Hong, but Princess An's eldest girl, dared to talk to her like this, so she was not tactful, and directly gritted her teeth and said it.
"It can't be!" Dong Hong directly denied it when she heard this, others didn't know the prince's feelings for the princess, but she knew it clearly, it was absolutely impossible for the prince to do such a thing, not to mention that the prince didn't want to see the girl from the Xiang family at all!
"Miss Donghong, now is not the time to be rash, the prince and the girl from the Xiang family have seen it when they enter this house, now let's hurry up and think of a countermeasure, how will the princess explain it?" Mrs. Ye thought that Dong Hong's denial was a matter of willfulness, so she said that someone saw the prince and Xiang Shaoyu entering.
Dong Hong didn't believe it, she strode forward a few steps, stood at the door, and was about to reach out to push the door open, but she froze again!
Now her mood is very complicated, she doesn't believe that the prince will do something sorry for the princess, but Mrs. Ye said so again, and today's things are sneaking everywhere, and she hesitated at the moment when she was about to push the door.
She was thinking, what if, if it was, the moment she pushed the door open, she really saw an unpleasant picture that surprised her, what should she do, how to explain to the princess, how to tell the princess, if the princess knew this, I am afraid she would be heartbroken, how could she be willing to make her master sad!
At this time, Dong Hong's raised hand couldn't help but tremble, and he muttered in his heart, "The world is as black as a crow, has the prince become such a crow!" Or maybe the prince has fallen for the trick! ”
Dong Hong is still biased towards the prince, thinking of this, she even has the intention of killing Xiang Shaoyu!
"No matter, if it's really like that, when the time comes, she will end up with the surname Xiang for the princess, and it will be her responsibility to investigate it in the future!" Thinking of this, Donghong gritted her teeth and reached out to push the closed door.
"Donghong, it just so happens that you are here, this king is a little tired, you go to invite the princess, let's go back to the house first!"
Just as Dong Hong was about to push open the door, a cold and majestic male voice sounded behind everyone.
When Dong Hong heard this voice, she turned her head suddenly, and her face couldn't help but be happy, "King, prince, slave and maid meet the prince!" ”
"Well, excuse me, you go and invite the princess, this king is waiting for the princess in the front yard!" Chu Ziheng nodded and said to Dong Hong.
"Yes, slave and maid are going!" Under the great sorrow and joy, even Dong Hong, a girl who usually does not leak her voice, almost jumped up after the salute.
After Dong Hong left, the shocked look on the faces of Mrs. Ye and her two daughters-in-law did not subside, isn't the prince supposed to be in that room, why, why did he appear here at this time, then, who is in that room now?
"Why is the king and the prince here?" Shocked, Mrs. Ye couldn't help but ask this sentence, but she regretted it after asking, how could she ask about the prince's movements, even if this is her home, she is the owner here, this is the rule.
However, Chu Ziheng didn't seem to be angry, and said with a smile: "This king has eaten a few glasses of wine, some of them are on top, change his clothes, and go for a walk in the nearby woods!" ”
"Yes, the concubine is not well thought out!" Mrs. Ye hurriedly pleaded guilty.
"It's okay, Mrs. Ye is not feeling well, so I will sue for a crime, and I will leave with the princess, please don't blame Mrs. Ye!" Chu Ziheng said.
"Lord Wang, please, I'll go and invite my master!" Mrs. Ye suppressed the shock in her heart and said.
"Well, that's fine!" ——
Dong Hong returned to the backyard and told Ruoyun what Chu Ziheng said, Ruoyun nodded when she heard this, it was exactly what she wanted, she didn't want to stay at Xiang's house to eat at the banquet, and she couldn't eat well if she was noisy.
Besides, the two of them can come today to give face to the Xiang family, and no one will say anything if they leave early, because usually on this occasion, nobles will leave early.
However, when Ye Mingzhu heard that Ruoyun was leaving, she showed a reluctant look on her face, talking to Ruoyun, she actually knew a lot of things that she didn't know before, which made her feel suddenly enlightened, she seemed to talk to the princess more!
Ruoyun looked at her like this, and said with a smile: "If you are free, you can go to the palace to play!" ”
Ye Mingzhu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said expectantly: "Really, can I go to the palace to meet you?" ”
"Of course, I don't have anything to do in the palace all day, so come and talk to me if you're fine!" Ruoyun said with a smile.
"Yes, I'll go!" Ye Mingzhu said happily.
Ye Zhong and his wife sent Ruoyun and Chu Ziheng to the gate, saluted again, and then watched the car in the palace gradually move away, and the two breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Ye had already told Ye Zhong what had just happened, but fortunately, this matter did not implicate the prince and the princess, and seeing the two of them leave safely, a heart they were hanging on also fell to the ground.
It's just that I don't know what the situation is inside the closed door, and whether the girl is alone in the room, or if there is someone else inside!
"Go, you go and kick that room open for me, I want to see who's doing the trick on our house!" Ye Zhong said angrily.
He is the prefect of Yuezhou, the highest governor here, as long as the people inside are not the princes, he has nothing to fear! (To be continued......)
