Yulan could only stay in the room and be anxious, but she still had to put on a look of a bamboo chest, took a scroll of scriptures and pretended to look at it, the servants and servants below were already panicked, if she was in a mess, she would have to follow the mess.

After almost an hour, the good news finally came, the eldest young master and the third young master took the eighth girl back and quietly sent her back to the main courtyard. After a while, Chengzong entered the green Jingzhai in the dust, maybe it was too late, this time Chengzu did not come in with him. The two sisters and brothers waved away the maid servants, and Yulan's younger brother didn't pretend to be deep in front of him, and asked anxiously, "How is it?" ”

Chengzong sat down next to the kang, took a sip of the teacup, and said calmly: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored!" The eighth sister didn't have a car to sit in, and she didn't go far, so my eldest brother and I chased after the horse in the direction designated by my sister, but it took a quarter of an hour to catch up with someone. It's just ......" Chengzong paused, and a trace of anger flashed on his face: "She walked alone on the street, not even a maid, but she met a few scoundrels, and almost had a big accident, and it was Jingzhao Yin Feng Gongzi who passed by to relieve the siege!" Eighth sister, it's too nonsense! "Chengzong has not seen Yuxin very pleasing to the eye since he was a child, Yuxin made such a big rebellion, of course he hates iron and steel!

"Thankfully, fortunately!" Yulan patted his chest, how could he kill another Feng Gongzi halfway, Yulan was a little worried again, don't let people see anything.

Chengzong saw that she was worried, and said in a harmonious voice: "My eldest brother and I only said that the eighth sister is just a maid who goes out to run errands, and Feng Gongzi can't suspect the eighth sister even if he thinks about it, and Feng Gongzi is a classmate of my country's eunuch, I will deal with this matter, sister, you can rest assured!" "Think about it, who would have thought that Miss Xiangfu would run out of the house in the middle of the night without even a maid, this is also a bit too sensational!

Yulan saw that his words were full of confidence, so he put his mind at ease. Having such a young and old brother is really a lot of worry. She called Xiaoyu in again, gave her ten taels of silver, and told her to reward the second mother-in-law who guarded the second door, which was a hush money, and told them not to go out and chew their tongues. It was inconvenient for the third young master to come forward to handle this matter, so Yulan had to take action in person.

Xiaoyu is a steady person, and she has followed her through these days, and she has grown in her sophistication, and she naturally knows what to say and what to do.

It's been two years since Chengzong was sent away, and Yulan had the heart to go to see the eighth sister, but didn't she tell the eldest lady that there was something going on in so late, Yulan thought about it and fell asleep.

After the eldest lady sent her away, a wife who was almost an official was so tired that she couldn't straighten her waist, so Mother Wu helped her back to the yard, changed her clothes, and left the janitor Mother Li to come over to do the work.

Since Wu's mother has become the eldest wife's right-hand man, Li's mother has taken a back seat, and the eldest lady has left her at home to watch the door. Mother Li picked up a few big things and told them to the eldest wife. The eldest lady was tired, but she couldn't hold back her joy in her heart, and at today's banquet, a group of noblewomen and official wives came to the horse, and the eldest lady was overjoyed, and 48,000 pores cheered together. Now she is more and more pleasant to Mother Li.

After listening to Li's mother's story, she didn't say anything, and asked the eighth girl: "Xin'er came back early, has she been settled?" ”

Mother Li originally wanted to tell the eldest lady that there was something wrong with the yard, but seeing that the eldest lady was in such a good mood, she opened her mouth and swallowed the words back to her mouth. Seeing that the eighth girl is also going to be the crown princess, there is no need for me to make a small report in front of the eldest wife, and I have not offended the future nobles.

The next day, Yulan went to greet the eldest lady early in the morning, and heard that Yuxin was sick. The eldest lady only saw a few children in a hurry, and then went to Yuxin's courtyard to pass on the imperial doctor and take medicinal herbs. At noon, Yulan found an excuse to see Yuxin.

Yuxin was lying on the bed, her face was sallow, her expression was abrupt, and the room was filled with a strong smell of medicine. But it was Yuxin who smashed the medicine bowl with her temperament, she refused to drink the medicine, no one persuaded her, and it was not easy for the eldest lady to come, and she was robbed by Yuxin with a gun and a stick, and the angry wife trembled, Yuxin is the old thing is recalled, and she resolutely refuses to marry the prince!

The eldest lady was so angry that she almost fainted on the spot, and was forced out of the door by Wu's mother. Green Branch's eyes fell when she saw Yulan coming in, and after the eighth girl was sent back, as soon as she contacted her before and after, she naturally knew who was telling the secret, and Green Branch was not afraid of her beating or scolding, but the eighth girl had a cold face, and she didn't say a word. Lu Zhi has grown up with Yuxin since she was a child, and she knows her temper, of course she understands that this is because the eighth girl is completely cold to her, and she is aggrieved and sad for a while.

"Persuade our girl!" After the green branch finished speaking, he blessed his body, and retreated with the little maids. Yulan found a chair to sit down, and when Yuxin saw her come in, she only turned her face away and didn't say a word.

After not seeing her all night, Yuxin's face was almost haggard and out of shape. Yulan sighed, not knowing what to say. persuaded her to compromise and recognize the situation, and just accept her fate? The emperor also pointed out the marriage, and the prince Xiaoding also went down, and it seems that there is only such a way left. Don't say that Yuxin is unwilling, even Yulan doesn't want to see such an ending. Yuxin, as the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, has a noble status, although she and King Zhao are not in love with each other, they also have some friendship for each other, why did they break up with the mandarin ducks?

It's not easy to be a woman in ancient times!

"This, maybe it's providence......" Yulan held back for a long time, and the ghost sent such a sentence.

Yu Xin turned her face, and looked at her with a blank look without a trace of brilliance, as if she had been the one who was flying and domineering, and she didn't look at everything and didn't look at everything, and the eighth girl of the Yang family died like this. She already understands that all her efforts and all her resistance are in vain, her fate is already doomed, no matter how unwilling she is, she has to be the crown princess! She rolled her eyes, and said hatefully for a long time: "Traitors, you are all traitors!" ”

Yulan understands that for Yuxin, betrayal is great harm. She was silent for a while, and finally spoke, some words were not good, but she still had to say: "Whether it's the green branch, the third brother, or me, we all have a good starting point." Our only purpose is for your own good! ”

Yu Xin sneered: "For my good? You're all for yourselves! ”

Yulan felt a surge of anger in her heart, and said coldly: "I don't care what you think of me!" But Yang Yuxin, you touch your conscience and think about it! They have been serving you conscientiously for more than ten years, which point is not exhaustive, have you ever thought about it for them, if you call your wife to know the Tao yesterday, you will be grounded for a few days at most, and you will be scolded! Green Branches, they may be beaten to death! Are you such a selfish person? Can you really bear it? To put it mildly, it hurts you to go, but what do you let the entire Yang Mansion do? lost the crown princess, who can bear this crime? Even grandpa has to be implicated! Let me make another assumption for you, even if you see King Zhao, he is really interested in you, and he accepts all the marriage wishes, will he abandon his good future for you and elope with you? ”

Yuxin grabbed the quilt with her hand, her knuckles turned white, she wanted to refute, but Yulan said it reasonably, she really couldn't find anything to refute. I can only stare at Yulan fiercely like this. Slowly, the fierceness in her eyes faded, she is not the kind of unreasonable person, her big problem is that she is too impulsive.

In the end, Yuxin lowered her head.

During this time, Yulan helped her a lot, and she had already thought that Yulan was the only person in the house who could speak to her heart, so she was still convinced of this sister. After being silent for a long time, Yuxin finally raised her head slowly, with two tears on her cheeks: "What should I do?" ”

"Everything...... Go with the flow! The Yang family's brocade clothes and jade food have provided us to such a big time, giving us glory and wealth, honor and love, and it is time for us to do something for the Yang family! ”

When I came out of the main courtyard, there were snowflakes in the sky. Yulan tightened her cloak, and her heart felt like a stone was blocked. Yuxin's future is bleak, how good can she be? In this era, is it really intolerable to love each other like two hearts?

That night, Lu Zhi came to see Yu Lan in Lu Jingzhai, and when he saw her, he knelt down and kowtowed, saying that soon after Yu Lan left, Yu Xin's attitude slowly softened, and she and Lu Rui were no longer alienated and cold, and Lu Zhi was grateful.

Yulan pulled her up and asked her about the current situation of the eighth girl, and Lu Zhidao was feeding her medicine and she was also eating, but she didn't talk much, and she looked very gloomy.

Yulan felt a faint pain in her heart when she heard this, but there was nothing she could do.

The eldest lady came to see Yuxin after dinner, and saw that although she looked like she was self-defeating, she finally stopped making trouble, so she temporarily put her mind at ease, feeling that Yuxin's friendship for King Zhao was just a little girl fooling around, and after this period of time, she married into the East Palace, and after tasting the power of the crown princess, she would naturally forget about King Zhao. asked the maid to wait for her life, and reported it to her as soon as there was a problem, and she also revealed the matter.

Because of her young age and good health, after a few days, Yuxin's body was almost better, but she became silent and listless all day long. Yuxin was cured, but the old lady was infected with wind and cold again, in the end, she was old, and she was easy to get sick in winter, and it was difficult to recover when she got sick. The eldest lady hurriedly invited the imperial doctor in the palace to check the old lady's pulse. Now the old lady of Yuxin's marriage is also relieved, as the eldest daughter-in-law, in order to win a good reputation, the eldest lady also wants the old lady to serve the sick.

After thinking about it for only two days, news also came from the palace that the Queen Mother suddenly fell seriously ill and fell into a coma. The eldest lady listened to the words of the eunuch who reported the incident, and her legs were weak with fright. Even she can see that the queen mother's oil lamp is dry, and she is holding on to this breath for the prince's marriage, and now I am afraid that she will not be able to hold it anymore. But the prince hasn't gotten married yet......

The eldest lady immediately went to the palace.

Yuqing Palace in the Forbidden City is the prince's bedroom, and at this moment, the prince Ye Minshu, who is wearing court clothes, is standing on the throne. It is said that this is the prince's inner house, and he can completely change into loose and comfortable clothes, but the prince likes to wear this apricot yellow court dress all the time.

The color of the prince's court dress is strictly different from that of the princes, and there is no problem for the prince to wear apricot yellow, if the prince wears it, it will be overstepping. And this apricot yellow color also symbolizes the noble status of the prince of the princely kingdom. The prince enjoyed the feeling of reverence.

At this time, Fu Jie, the prince's personal guard, was kneeling at the feet of the prince, and he had just finished reporting the news of the investigation of Yuxin, and the prince personally instructed him that day, so he naturally did not dare to slack off! The prince was already furious when he heard this, and he stretched out his hand and slapped the table, and the cups and plates on the table were all jumping wildly: "This! Did she really say that? How dare she question the Divine Decree? ”

Fu Jie's head almost touched the ground, and he said in a low voice: "Yes!" ”

The prince jumped from his throne and scurried around the room angrily. "This slut, the fourth emperor brother didn't choose the girl of the Xiao family that day, but he just gave her Ruyi, I don't think it's right......" He didn't say half a sentence: What is it for, what is it for her, but it is Ye Minyu?

Since he was born, Ye Minyu has been arguing with him everywhere, his position as the crown prince has not been stable for a day, his hatred for Ye Minyu is like a surging river, and now Ye Minyu almost snatched his concubine away, so how can he not be annoyed and how not to be angry?

After thinking about it, he put the blame on Yang Peishi: "Yang Peishi, this old thing, how did he educate his children and grandchildren?" When Gu waits for the throne, he will definitely not spare them, and he will never spare them! ”

Fu Jie secretly thought to my master, Yang Peishi, the patriarch of the three dynasties, that is, your father, the emperor is respectful to Shoufu, there is nothing to do with Shoufu, you are a generation lower than your father, and your foundation is worse than your father, what can you do with that old man? What's more, now you don't even have to say whether you can sit on the throne, and you don't hurry up to win people's hearts, but you just lash out and scold people who refuse to take refuge in you, it's better to think about how to clean up King Zhao with this kung fu!

The prince is now upright, and he doesn't dare to persuade him. At this time, a little eunuch hurriedly ran in, and when he saw the prince like this, he stood there and neither advanced nor retreated. The prince was not angry, and walked over and kicked him to the ground: "Dog minion, even you want to see your master angry, don't you?" I'll kick you to death, I'll kick you to death! The eunuch kicked his face several times, and the little eunuch's face was bleeding.

The little eunuch was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word, but just knelt there and let the prince kick and beat. If the master is willing to beat you, it is also to give you face, where do they dare to complain! Fu Jie knew that the little eunuch was usually a thing, and he knew that there must be something to report when he ran in at this time, and it was always bad to delay the prince's major events, so he had the courage to ask: "Bold slave, do you have something to do when you run here?" ”

The crown prince snorted, paced back to the throne, and felt a little more comfortable in his heart: "Dog minion, what's the matter?" Go ahead! ”

The eunuch kowtowed again and again: "Tell the prince, the prince, outside, Lord Ye Minchun of the Yanqing Palace, ask to see!" It is said that there is an important excerpt that I want to show you first! ”

After hearing this, the prince finally temporarily restrained his anger: "Invite him into the outer study, and go to see him when he changes his clothes!" ”

At about the same time, in the Hexiang Pavilion of the Yang Mansion, Aunt Liu's mother and daughter were quietly discussing.

"I told the prince about the eighth sister that day, but I don't know what the prince is going to do!" With a bit of a coquettish voice, this is Yuxia. She didn't really know about Yuxin and King Zhao, no matter how confused the eldest lady was, she wouldn't expose this matter. Yuxia just wanted to frame Yuxin that day, but who knew that she would tell her by mistake!

Aunt Liu sneered; "What is the status of the prince? It's a man who can't stand someone putting a green hat on his head! ”

The fifth girl said, "What if there is no such thing?" ”

Aunt Liu said: "Everyone saw that day when the eight girls questioned the holy decree, there must be something wrong here!" Besides, where can there be any real evidence for this kind of thing! As long as the prince plants a seed of doubt in her heart, she will not have a good time in the future, and then she will find a way to get you into the East Palace......"

The fifth girl is always a little low: "Seeing her proud spring breeze and about to become the crown princess, I am always unwilling!" ”

"Let's take a look again, maybe we still have a chance, just ...... without doing anything" Aunt Liu made a head-killing gesture, and an awe-inspiring cold light flashed in her eyes! If she dies, there will be no concubines in this house, and you won't have a chance then? ”

"Mother!" Yuxia's voice trembled slightly, "...... Will it work? Won't show the stuffing, right? In that case, there will be no place for our mother and daughter in this Yang Mansion! ”

Aunt Liu said lightly: "Then it depends on whether there is a chance, and whether God is on our side." "A thousand days to be a thief but not a thousand days to prevent thieves, the eldest lady has always been on guard against Hexiang Pavilion, but there is always a mistake in Baimi, and Aunt Liu has been waiting for an opportunity.
