Under the begging of the mother and daughter, Qu Xiaoliang still decided to listen to his daughter first and discuss with him about something, and then decide whether he would help her after she finished speaking.

So, Qu Wuwu told him the words he had just heard Yu Zhaorong say in the palace, and said alarmistly at the end: "Dad, you can't ignore this matter, if we take the initiative to expose it to the emperor, it will be a righteous annihilation; But if someone else preempts it, not only will Qu Wurong be unlucky, but I'm afraid it will also implicate our bachelor's mansion! ”

After listening to her words, Qu Xiaoliang was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Worry, do you have any evidence?" You can't just talk about that! ”

"Of course I know I can't talk nonsense!" The strictness of this matter, even if he doesn't say Qu Wuwu, he understands it very well, "That's why I hurriedly ran back to discuss with you!" ”

"Discuss?" Qu Xiaoliang looked at her puzzled, "You shouldn't even listen to this kind of nonsense, and you shouldn't believe it if you hear it, what else do you want to discuss with me?" ”

I didn't expect him to say this, Qu Wuwu was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Dad, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Worry, you used to be temperant, those were petty fights, and Dad can let you do it, but you have to understand that this time the nature of things is completely different from before." Qu Xiaoliang said earnestly, "What you just said is a big crime that shakes the country's foundation, no matter how much you don't like your sister, you can't impose such a crime on her, if you don't get it right, it will put our whole family into it, do you know?" ”

"Dad, are you old and confused?" Qu Wuwu looked at him in disbelief, "Didn't I tell you just now?" As long as this matter is exposed by you, then you are a person who has contributed to the court, and the emperor will definitely reward him lavishly, don't you always want to be added to the rank of knight? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”

Seeing that she couldn't listen to her persuasion at all, Qu Xiaoliang shook his head helplessly, "I know what you are thinking in your heart, you want to take this opportunity to get rid of your sister completely, so that you have the opportunity to become the concubine of the emperor today and continue to enjoy your glory and wealth." But Dad still has to remind you that this thing can't be done! ”

"Why?" Qu Wuwu asked unwillingly.

"Because it's not as simple as you think!" In order to dispel her thoughts, Qu Xiaoliang couldn't help but increase his tone and said, "You don't want to think about it, your sister married the current emperor first, if she really did the things you just said, do you think the current emperor will not know?" He wished that he would press this matter as tightly as possible, but you asked me to go to him to expose it, didn't this mean that your father and I would be sent to death? ”

Hearing his words, Hua Shi next to him couldn't sit still, and hurriedly pulled his daughter's sleeve and persuaded: "Worry, since your father said that it is dangerous to do this, then you should obediently listen to your father's words and quickly forget about this matter, as if you had never heard of it, remember?" ”

Qu Wuwu was still shocked by Qu Xiaoliang's words just now, and when he heard her say this, he didn't give any reaction, and after a while, he said with difficulty: "Dad, what if the emperor doesn't know at all?" ”

"Impossible!" Qu Xiaoliang coldly broke her last illusion, "This matter is over, you go back to the palace for me now, and you are not allowed to mention this matter to anyone in the future, have you heard?" ”

originally thought that she had got a golden opportunity to completely get rid of Qu Wurong, the thorn in her eye, but she was poured a basin of cold water on her father's head, and the loss in Qu Wurong's heart was conceivable, on the way back to the palace, she was still thinking about it, and the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she felt.

No, she can't pass up such a great opportunity!

Since her father was afraid of burning herself and refused to help her, then she would go to someone else, she didn't believe that there were so many princes and ministers in the court, and there was no one who could help her fulfill her wishes!

Xiangxue Temple.

The snow had only fallen overnight a few days before, and the next day it was still sunny and sunny, and the snowflakes on the ground quickly melted away, and if it weren't for the fact that there was still some residual snow in the corner where the sun could not reach, everyone couldn't help but feel that the snow was just a dream that everyone had together.

"Jin Yu, have you seen Huahua?" On this day, Qu Wurong wanted to take advantage of the good weather to ask the palace maids to take a bath for Huahua, but found that there was nothing in the cat's nest, and just as Jin Yu passed by her, she asked out loud.

"Huh? Isn't it in the nest? Jin Yu poked his head and took a look, and when he saw that the cat kennel was empty, he couldn't help but be surprised, "I was busy here early in the morning, and I didn't see when it left!" ”

Qu Wurong didn't ask any more, just ordered: "Let people look for it, find it and give it a bath." ”

Hearing her say that she was going to bathe Huahua, the corners of Jin Yu's mouth couldn't help but twitch. Since the winter, it has become more and more difficult to bathe the little guy, and it used to know that it was only after seeing the bath water that it escaped, but now as long as it sees someone entering the small kitchen, it will take the initiative to hide far away, even if people are not bathing it for boiling water at all, it can't dispel its vigilance.

However, although it is very difficult to implement the matter of bathing Huahua, Jin Yu still obeyed Qu Wurong's instructions and asked people to find the cat to boil the bath water by the way, anyway, since Yangchun and Bai Xue entered the palace, it was not her turn to intervene, and she was also happy to see the scene of Yangchun and Huahua confronting each time, it was an indescribable joy!

As Huahua grew up, the eunuchs and palace maids who served in the Xiangxue Hall also grew up in their ability to catch cats, and it didn't take long to pull out the cats that they didn't know where they were hiding, and then threw the whole cat into the steaming wooden basin in the midst of its extremely desolate screams.

Yangchun rolled up his sleeves and chanted at the same time: "Let you hide!" I'll let you hide it again! ”

Huahua, who was held down by several palace maids, struggled more and more after seeing her movements, but unfortunately it was a little outnumbered with the power of a cat, and in the end she could only be pressed by Yangchun in the wooden basin and rubbed the hair on her body vigorously, screaming indescribably miserable.

As soon as Qu Yizhu stepped into the Xiangxue Palace, she heard a cat meow from somewhere, she heard Jin Yu and Liangyuan talk about it, Qu Wurong raised a flower cat in his palace, and at this time he thought that the cat had encountered some danger, and he even forgot the purpose of his coming here, and followed the cat's meow.

When he got closer, Qu Yizhu saw clearly that it was everyone who was bathing the cat, and the flower cat in the wooden basin was wet with all its hair by the water, and it was also much more honest, only lying in the wooden basin and calling weakly.

"Miss Lost Pearl?" Liangyuan, who happened to pass by, saw her and greeted her with a surprised face, "When did you enter the palace?" ”

Taking his eyes off the wet cat, Qu Yizhu smiled at her and replied, "Not long after I entered the palace, my husband was talking to the emperor in the imperial study, so I came over to see my sister." ”

"Miss is reading in the side hall, come with me." Liangyuan said, and led her towards the side hall.

There are several braziers in the hall, which bakes the whole hall warmly, and there is a half-person high stove in the middle of the hall.

"Miss, Miss Lost Pearl is here."

Qu Wurong raised his head when he heard this, and when he saw the person who came, he hurriedly put down the book in his hand, stood up and greeted him, "When you entered the palace today, why didn't you let people tell me in advance?" ”

"I didn't plan to come." Qu Yizhu said as she took her hand and walked towards the stove, she was dressed so little, it was too far away from the stove to freeze, "It's the husband who said that the emperor is going to be busy with political affairs, sister, you will definitely feel bored when you stay alone in this deep palace, so I let me enter the palace to accompany you." ”

Her words were full of maintenance, Qu Wurong could naturally hear it, but she didn't dismantle her, "An Lehou is a careful person, and you can be regarded as a good destination if you marry him." ”

"Hmm." Qu Yizhu nodded, with a slight look of shame on her face, "By the way, when I came in just now, I saw Yangchun bathing a kitten, is that the cat raised by my sister?" ”

Hearing her ask about Huahua, Qu Wurong replied a little helplessly: "Yes, every time I take a bath, it is like I want to punish it, and I will never give up if I don't toss it, and only Yangchun has a way to restrain it in this palace." ”

"Sounds like a bubbly." Qu Yizhu pursed her lips and smiled.

"Isn't it?" Qu Wurong's tone was both helpless and spoiled, "If you like it, you can also raise one, although the little thing is a little noisy, it can also bring you a lot of joy." ”

Qu Yizhu nodded, "I have this plan too." ”

She has liked small animals since she was a child, but when she lived in the bachelor's mansion before, she had to do things like a subordinate, and she didn't have time to raise those kittens and dogs, and even if she had time, Hua didn't allow her to raise them, so she had to bury this idea deep in her heart.

But now it's different, she is Mrs. An Lehou, no one can dictate her behavior anymore, she can raise whatever she wants, and she doesn't have to look at other people's faces anymore!

Next, the two sisters talked about some other topics about raising cats, because they were too focused on chatting, Qu Yizhu almost forgot her husband's explanation before she came, but fortunately in the end she still remembered, "By the way, sister, my husband asked me to tell you something." ”

"What's the matter?" Seeing that the expression on her face suddenly became stern, Qu Wurong couldn't help but wonder what she was going to tell herself next.

Qu Yizhu didn't immediately solve her doubts, but said with some hesitation, "Husband said that this matter is just his own speculation, and there is no evidence yet, so I just let me remind you to be careful." ”

Hearing her say this, Qu Wurong's curiosity became even stronger, "What is it, so mysterious?" ”

"The husband said that when he was drinking and chatting with a friend a few days ago, he heard him say that one of his colleagues had been in close contact with a concubine in the harem recently." Qu Yizhu truthfully relayed the words that her husband explained to her, "Because it is related to the reputation of the royal family, my husband inquired a few more words, and the person I heard him describe seems to be ...... Qu worry-free. ”

"Qu worry-free?" Hearing this name, Qu Wurong couldn't help frowning, "You mean to say that Qu Wuwu colluded with a certain official in the court, and I don't know what she is planning, and you are worried that she will be unfavorable to me?" ”
