Chapter 4 Proof of Fate

Seeing Xiao Ya, who looks as beautiful and gentle as a Jiangnan woman, but has a hot personality like a girl from the northwest, walked out quickly, Liuli felt a little lost in her heart, but she was also a little relieved. How did you think that Xiao Ya walked to the door and turned back, "Eleventh sister-in-law, aren't you curious why I was detained in the palace, copying scriptures and praying for blessings, and I couldn't get out for many days?" ”

Ruri raised her eyebrows.

Xiao Ya is a person who doesn't like to say right and wrong, which is one of the reasons why Liuli likes Xiao Ya. Unless, it's not about her. And what Xiao Ya can take the initiative to say is even more intriguing.

Could it be that Xiao Zuo is sick? But this kind of thing, it is impossible for Xiao Shiyi and Shi not to tell her. Could it be that there is chaos in the inner palace? Recently, she has been living in the county king's mansion all day long, and with the illusion that Xiao Shiyi wants to create a deep relationship between husband and wife and a moment of inseparability, she didn't pay attention to the gossip outside.

"My second brother is injured, can my eleventh sister-in-law know?" When Xiao Ya saw Liuli's expression, she knew that she really didn't hear the wind.

Liuli nodded, with an indifferent look, "On the day I entered the palace to thank you, I heard that King Jing was assassinated. However, I heard that life is fine, so I didn't inquire much about anything else. ”

Xiao Ya looked at her face, and seeing that Liuli did not have any resentful and angry expressions, her heart was slightly relieved, and she thought about it for a while, "The people in the palace are very secretive about the assassination of my second brother, and they only say that they have encountered robbers who are not long-sighted. ”

Seems to be hidden? Ruri frowned, "How are the robbers?" ”

"He was hacked to death on the spot." Xiao Ya talked about this kind of tragedy, but her expression was not moving, obviously used to seeing the killing under the royal flowers, and she was numb, "That robber is also capable, he can move my second brother single-handedly." You know, not everyone is like my eleventh brother and ...... Brother Jiu is like that, he doesn't like to bring people around. Brother Nine is okay, there are a few guards, Brother Eleven sometimes goes alone, and he ...... by his side, "I want to say that there are a few beauties around me." But in the end, it stopped in time. You know, Liuli is the concubine of the eleventh brother.

"I checked and checked, but I didn't find any mastermind behind it. Now that it was eventful, the turmoil of natural and man-made disasters last year had just passed, and the emperor meant to calm things down, so he didn't make a big move. The eleventh sister-in-law is right, in short, her life is not hindered......"

"Badly hurt?" Ruri heard the sound outside the strings.

A lone bandit, robbing a well-guarded carriage, this bandit is not bold, but looking for death. If the brain is not sick. Who would do that in Tokyo? There is no such way to be bold! If you drink too much, how can you break through Xiao Zhong's defense? She knows Xiao Zhong, she looks like a frank gentleman, but she is extremely careful, and she likes pomp and circumstance. On the contrary, those pedantic ministers. He also said that this was the majesty of heaven, and praised him for his cautious behavior, and I really don't know how much boiling water I put in my head.

And Xiao Zuo can't tolerate others to be offended, because his heart is weak. On the contrary, it behaved particularly strongly. To put it bluntly, he is a person who can't afford to lose. So how could he have spared the man who had harmed his son unless there was a special reason that could not be made public? Although he has many sons, it is not a problem to have a lot of casualties.

One last point. Xiao Ya emphasized the words "life is not hindered", which means that in addition to Xiao Zhong's life, the damage is very great. Sum up. Suffice it to say that this matter is not so simple.

"There are no missing arms and short legs...... Xiao Ya seemed to be very embarrassed, and her face was suspiciously red, "The robber's knife technique is not accurate, but my second brother's limbs are injured in the end." Alas, alas, he has not left an heir......"

Liuli was taken aback, and when it came to this, it was clear that Xiao Zhong was ...... Scrapped. Otherwise, where is it not hurt, where is such a coincidental injury? If it is not for the purpose, it is difficult to succeed in such a difficult "operation" at one time, robbery or fighting.

It's rare for Xiao Ya, and this kind of secret is also known. This situation is a great humiliation for men, and it should be covered up as much as possible. And since Xiao Zhong is not even a man anymore, and there is no son behind him, the crown prince and even the throne are insulated from him!

Jiulang was demoted to a concubine, the son of the queen of Yuan became a waste, and the ten kings Xiao Mu was never an alternative because it was related to the word "ten", and the rest ...... The eldest prince born by Concubine Cui Shu, the fourth prince died early, the third prince and the sixth prince born to the other concubines died early, and the eighth prince grew up, married a wife and had children, but he was seriously injured and died while hunting one year, so now only the fifth prince Tuwang Xiao Shi and the seventh prince Lu Wang Xiao An are adults.

The situation in Beijing and China seemed to become clear all of a sudden, and two of the most unlikely candidates appeared at once. However, Xiao Zuo is still in the prime of life, although in the past seven or eight years, there has been no imperial heir in the palace, but he has many other minor sons. Besides, will Cui Shufei take the opportunity to get Jiulang back?

But what do you want to do with all that? According to Xiao Shiyi's plan, this dynasty will fall in two years, and he will not let the dynasty turn back, he can only be so superficial, but it is secretly decaying.

"You know all about this......" Ruri said tentatively.

Xiao Ya immediately understood what she meant, lowered her voice and said, "My ninth brother's mother, do you think it's a fuel-efficient lamp?" Taking this opportunity, I will definitely want my second brother to completely cross the stage. ”

Sure enough, Concubine Cui Shufei let her son's heart to seize the throne not die! Give a little sunshine and it should be shining. The ministers didn't say it, but Concubine Cui Shufei was so fueling the fire, everyone knew in their hearts that Xiao Zhong had become a waste, so who else would protect King Jing? But she hopes that Jiulang will stay in the southwest town and not come back to troubled the water!

"Have a nice trip." Seeing that there was nothing to say, Liuli sent off the guest, ignoring Xiao Ya's searching eyes.

It's weird, and it obviously smacks of revenge. However, it was not her who did it. The last time Xiao Zhong told her a bastard talk, she rewarded him with a slap in the face, and afterwards she thought about taking revenge slowly, so she couldn't just forget it. But she hadn't spared her hands yet......

Seeing Xiao Ya away, Liuli sat quietly for a while, sorted out her inner emotions, and returned to the main courtyard. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Xiao Shiyi standing in the courtyard, looking at the sky with his hands in his hands, as if he had been waiting for her for a long time. When he saw her come in, he immediately smiled. In an instant, the feeling of sunshine in the courtyard.

"Ruri, come." He held out his hand.

In addition to Yiqiu and Weiwei who were following her, there were also other maids in a courtyard, and Liuli was embarrassed to wrap his fingers with him like this, shaking his hands. However, he couldn't lose his face, so he had to walk over and reach out and pull down his sleeve, "What's the matter?" ”

"Show you something good." After pulling the glass, I went to the study in the west wing.

It is said to be a study, but the yard is large, the house is empty, there are three rooms with one light and two dark, high beams, and a deep and wide area, which is basically a suite for His Royal Highness the King of the County. Liuli was pulled directly to the bedroom, and couldn't help but be a little nervous.

Isn't he, in broad daylight...... What's that? Finally you can't take it anymore, right? Finally, the gentleman is gone, right?

But soon, Liuli found out that she was impure again. Because although Xiao Shiyi took her to the bedside, he asked her to show a small box of one foot square on the bed. Exquisite multicolored dragon pattern hollow mahogany box, the corners are inlaid with gold, extremely luxurious. Da Zhao's woodware, unparalleled in the world, this one can be regarded as a high-end artwork.

"What's that?" Gifts?

"Wouldn't you open it and see it?" Xiao Shiyi's pen is squinting, in fact, he is very beautiful, but Liuli always feels that the smile is very treacherous because he is habitually wary of him.

"Don't dare?" Seeing that Liuli didn't make a move for a long time, Xiao Shiyi flew obliquely out of the corner of his eyes, full of provocation.

I don't know why, since becoming the "princess of the county", Liuli's calm and composure that has always been proud has disappeared, and she will always be unable to hold her breath in front of Xiao Shiyi. At this time, of course, you can't be soft, and open the lid of the box. However, when I looked at it, I couldn't help but be surprised. Such a beautiful and valuable box, but it is inconspicuous, and it can even be said to be out of tune.

An ordinary golden hairpin. An ugly-looking conch. A pair of weird fur earmuffs. A silk ribbon with pink embroidered characters on a white background. Of these, she recognized the last two. There was a thank you gift she made for Xiao Shiyi herself, because of a prank, she made it into a fox ear shape. The embroidered tape with which he measured fate was put in the snack and let her bite it out......

The inquiring looked at the man beside him, but saw that he seemed to be happy, reached into the box, and showed her the same, "This pair of earmuffs is a New Year's and birthday gift from you." This ribbon is a memorial of our fate. This conch was picked up for me by yourself when you first went to the beach in Dongjin Province. Well...... this."

Liuli blinked, completely unimpressed by this golden hairpin.

"Back then, you were calculated by Wen Hongxuan as a bastard and fell into the water in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, but it was I who saved your life and fished you out of the lake." Xiao Shiyi held the golden hairpin in the palm of his left hand, and gently stroked the slender and bony index finger of his right hand, which seemed to have a strong affection and pity.

Liuli watched from the side, and suddenly her heart was hot, and she felt uncomfortable. Like, his hand was on hers.

"And then, I lost my hairpin?" Ruri unconsciously scratched her neck and asked.

Xiao Shiyi stretched out his hand and flicked Liuli's forehead, "Bad girl, I really don't remember it at all." It's just me, thinking about it in my heart, don't you have a long heart? ”

"Don't say? Then I'm gone. Liuli turned around, and was unsurprisingly pulled by Xiao Shiyi.

"At that time, I suspected you, I didn't like you yet, and I thought you deliberately pretended not to know how to drink water, so I went to the side and knocked on the side. You girl was annoyed when she landed, and threw the golden hairpin into the pond where the koi fish were raised, saying that you had entered a state of stupor, and you were as scared as a dead person, of course, like the golden hairpin and sinking directly to the bottom of the water. After saying that, Jin Hai didn't want it anymore, and his temper was very big. ”

Speaking of this, Liuli finally remembered, "Then, Your Royal Highness the King of the County, you actually jumped into the fish pond with your clothes on, and fished up the golden hairpin, saying that it was as a reward for saving your life." ”

"yes." Xiao Shiyi nodded unashamedly, "Although the king of this county is rich in the world, he still won't waste it." Although the workmanship of this hairpin is ordinary, it is also red gold. ”

Seeing that Xiao Shiyi deliberately showed greed for money, Liuli couldn't help but smile.
