Chapter 1574: Trap
When Congyi was about to leave, Hongshi suddenly said: "Let Xiao Wu also come over, it was he who passed on the word just now." Cong Wenyan glanced at the Guerjia clan, and when he saw the latter nod, he walked away quickly.
After a while, Sixi and Xiaowu arrived, and it was a shame that Yinzhen didn't have anything to do with him today, otherwise it would be a mistake to go back and forth.
Sixi's eyes flashed, and he led Xiao Wu forward and said to Qian'er: "The slave asks for peace for Concubine Jin, and for the second elder brother." ”
"Father-in-law, didn't this palace ask you to invite the fourth elder brother over, why did the second elder brother come?" Gualga asked with some displeasure.
Hearing this, Sixi was stunned for a moment and said, "The slave did order Xiao Wu to invite the fourth elder brother, and the slave didn't know what was going on. Saying this, he turned his head and glared at Xiao Wu and said, "Why did you invite the second elder brother instead of the fourth elder brother?" ”
Xiao Wu said inexplicably: "Didn't you ask me to invite the second elder brother, Master?" ”
Sixi glared at him fiercely and said, "Nonsense, when did I ask you to invite the second elder brother, obviously I repeatedly told you to go to Prince Bao's mansion to invite the second elder brother over." ”
"But ......" Xiao Wu was interrupted by Sixi as soon as he said two words, "What else can it be, in vain that you have been by my side for a few years, and there has been such a big mistake, why don't you quickly kowtow to Concubine Jin Niangniang and the second elder brother to admit your mistake!" ”
Xiao Wu was full of grievances, and he clearly heard it clearly, it was the second elder brother, yes, how could he become the fourth elder brother in a blink of an eye. I wanted to defend myself, but when I saw Sixi's fierce appearance when he stared at him, he couldn't say anything to defend himself, so he could only endure his grievances and said: "It's all because the slave didn't listen carefully to the master's words and passed on the wrong words, so I beg Concubine Niangniang and the second elder brother to forgive me." ”
Guerjia sneered and said, "Even such simple words can be heard wrong, Xiao Wu, you are really good enough for this errand!" ”
Xiao Wu hurriedly kowtowed and said: "The slave is guilty, please ask Concubine Niangniang to spare the slave this time." ”
Sixi also helped to intercede on the side and said: "Niangniang, Xiao Wu really knows that he is wrong, for the sake of his heart, please spare him this time." ”
Seeing that the play was almost over, Guerjia snorted coldly and said: "Xiao Wu, today's palace will spare you for the sake of Gonggong Xi's intercession for you, if you let this palace know that you are so sloppy next time, this palace will not spare you." ”
"The slave knows how to say, thank you Concubine Niangniang." Xiao Wu stood up in a cold sweat, and retreated with Sixi, from beginning to end, Hongshi didn't say a word, didn't even look at Xiao Wu much, just kept staring at his toes, not knowing what he was thinking.
After Sixi and them walked away, Guerjia's eyes flashed slightly, and he walked to Hongshi's side and said, "Second Elder Brother, when did you come?" What did you hear when you were standing outside the temple just now? ”
Hongshi raised his head, stared at the Guerjia clan for a long time, squeezed out a somewhat reluctant smile and said: "As soon as I arrived outside the hall, Niangniang came to open the door, how could I have a chance to listen, but Niangniang asked so, is there something that can't be heard by me?" ”
Facing Hongshi's words, the Guerjia clan looked a little flustered, and turned his face uncomfortably and said: "How can there be such a thing, this palace is just asking casually." Since the second elder brother is here, it is better to sit here in the palace for a while. ”
Hongshi refused: "No need, I remember that there are still some things in the house, I have to go back quickly, and come back another day to say goodbye to Concubine Jinniang." ”
"Even if this is the case, this palace will not force you, and send the second elder brother out of the city." After Dehong came out of Xianfu Palace, she said to Zhang Cheng, who was standing next to her: "Do you think the second elder brother will believe what this palace said to you just now?" ”
Whether it's asking Xiao Wu to invite Hongshi over; Or take him outside the temple gate, push the door open and leave from Xiang; Or the words she and Zhang Cheng talked about in the palace were all traps set for Hongshi, not only letting him know the true cause of Ye Shi's death, but also making him think that the Nala clan wanted to be the second Wu Zetian and rule the world himself.
Zhang Cheng lowered his head and said: "When Weichen looks at the appearance of the second elder brother, he should believe it seventy or eighty percent, otherwise his face will not be so ugly." ”
"I hope he really believes it, and our efforts are in vain." Guerjia sighed softly, for the time when it was just a pillar of incense just now, Ling Ruo didn't know how much thought Lu Dao had put into it, first let Yinzhen Xu Zhang Cheng come back with the fact that Ah Yi was about to give birth, and then begged Yinzhen to let Zhang Cheng enter the harem to meet, and then asked Sixi to help make a play and invite Hongshi to Xianfu Palace. Xianfu Palace here is also trying to calculate all the timing to avoid problems, and now everything is finally unsatisfactory. As for what happens next, it's not something they can control.
"If Niangniang has no other instructions, Weichen will retire first." Zhang Cheng's words pulled the Guerjia clan back from his contemplation, and said, "Don't be in a hurry to go, wait until you can take the cordyceps sinensis before leaving." ”
"How can this be made, Niang Niang should keep it for herself." Zhang Cheng hurriedly excused himself, what he said just now was just to dispel Hongshi's suspicions, he didn't take it seriously at all.
Guerjia smiled: "It's just some small things, there is no need to be polite to this palace, and besides, this palace and Ah Yi are also acquainted, and now that she is about to give birth, shouldn't this palace send some things?" Without waiting for Zhang Cheng to refrain again, she had already said again: "If you resign again, this palace will be angry." ”
The words have come to this, if you refrain from resigning, it will be hypocritical, Zhang Cheng bowed and said: "Since this is the case, then Weichen will be ashamed." ”
Let's say that Xiao Wu returned to the Heart Nourishing Hall with Sixi, and followed him with his lips squirming a few times, but after all, he didn't make a sound. However, at this time, a voice came from the front, "Don't ask our family, because our family doesn't know how to answer you." ”
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment, walked a few steps quickly to Sixi's side and said, "Master, are you talking to me?" ”
Sixi nodded, looked at him calmly and said: "Our family knows that you have always been puzzled, our family obviously asked you to pass on the second elder brother, why did you say that it was the fourth elder brother in front of Concubine Niangniang." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Wu hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, Xiao Wu swore that he heard it really at the time, and he definitely didn't hear it wrong, it was indeed the second elder brother." ”
"It's true that our family asked you to invite the second elder brother, as for what our family wants to say this about behind us, or even wronging you, don't ask again, it's not good for you to ask too much." Today's events are so rotten in the stomach, understand? ”
Xiao Wu can be picked by Sixi to follow him, naturally he is also a clever person, after listening to Sixi's words, he changed his words knowingly: "Yes, Xiao Wu knows the way, it is Xiao Wu who is absent-minded, and listens to the master's orders, everything is Xiao Wu's fault." ”
