Chapter 129: Troublemaker
"Killed?!" Mu Yu smiled contemptuously: "Everyone has seen it, the princess has not spoken, and a slave dares to call the command!" β
Mama Zeng straightened her waist and said strongly: "This Mama is entrusted by the queen mother to manage all the affairs of this Lingshui Palace, and you are a little palace maid, and you dare to question the order of the queen mother!" "Today, this lock is really a little different, and he dares to argue with her like this.
Hmph, this is trying to button your own hat! Mu Yu's chin raised slightly: "That's right! The queen felt sorry for the princess, so she asked an experienced old lady to take care of the affairs of Lingshui Palace, but how did she know that you were such a deception, just let you take care of things, but you even took care of the master! Although I am a little palace maid, I am also the person next to the princess, even if I make any mistakes, it will not be your turn to kill! β
She looked sideways at Iris, "Sister Iris, you are the fairest, if Ah Suo died in Lingshui Palace in vain, do you remember to tell the queen what you saw today, I believe she will never let people bully her only most beloved daughter like this!" With that, she looked at Mama Zeng defiantly.
Since Iris said that the queen is very good to the princess, but she doesn't come to Lingshui Palace often, then she bets that this Zeng Mama is a yang and yin on weekdays, and she uses chicken feathers as an arrow.
"Don't worry, Iris will never exaggerate the facts, only report tonight's events as they are!" Her eyes became more and more admiring when she looked at the pastoral ballad.
Mama Zeng's old face turned pale with anger, and Ah Suo's words pierced her heart. The queen mother did let her manage chores, but she rarely came to this Lingshui Palace, and the princess was cowardly and easy to bully, and over time, it became her world. I'm used to being powerful, but I didn't expect someone to dare to challenge her authority today.
She glanced at the people in the room with cold eyes, and saw that although they didn't dare to speak, their eyes flickered a little, and she knew that if she forcibly killed this Ah Suo today, she was afraid that he would reach the ears of the queen mother one day, and she would not be able to escape punishment.
She looked at Princess Yuling curled up in a ball on the couch, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a sneer: "It seems that the old slave is really old, and he can't even take care of a palace maid." The old slave is useless, how to deal with this slave who has no one in his eyes, please show the princess! A pair of old eyes looked at the princess with blazing eyes, and his eyes were a little intimidating.
Princess Yuling didn't expect this fake Ah Suo to be so powerful, and she stood up to help herself speak regardless of her own life or death, but she didn't expect that Mama Zeng would leave this matter to herself.
As Ah Suo said, he has never exercised the rights of the master of the Lingshui Palace, and it has always been Mama who has the final say. She was very apprehensive in her heart, and she didn't dare to look at Mama Zeng's terrifying eyes, but she saw Ah Suo nodding at herself, constantly encouraging herself with her eyes, and she was conflicted for a while, so she had to lower her eyelashes slightly.
Seeing this scene, Mama Zeng raised the corners of her mouth proudly. Hmph, I already knew that she didn't dare to resist herself, but before she could unfold her smile, she saw Princess Yuling raise her head sharply and gesture.
"The princess said that tonight's incident was caused by her momentary depression, and it had nothing to do with Ah Suo! Although Ah Suo bumped into Mama, everything was caused by caring for her, so punish her for boiling medicine for the princess! Please also have a lot of Mama-sama, don't be angry! Iris relayed the princess's meaning fluently.
Mu Yu's eyes are shining, what a smart little princess! Ah Suo is the princess's personal maidservant, in addition to the two big palace maids of Lingshui Palace, her status among the subordinates is also high, and letting her do rough work such as boiling medicine is not only a punishment, but also convenient for her to make tonic for her.
Mama Zeng didn't expect that the princess, who had always been cowardly, would dare to go against her, she was stunned, but when she saw that everyone was looking at her, she smiled hypocritically: "Since the princess has spoken, the old slave should not care about her." It's just that the old slave has been doing his best for the princess all these years to run the Lingshui Palace, but tonight he was so slandered by Ah Suo in front of everyone, if the old slave ignores it, it will inevitably be true, if it reaches the ears of the queen, the old slave is even more speechless, and asks the princess to be the master of the old slave! β
Princess Yuling just made the decision with courage, I thought that Mama Zeng would be angry, but she didn't want to think that the imaginary storm was not coming, so she was a little bolder, she thought for a while, and then gestured: "What Ah Suo said just now was wrong, let her apologize to you!" β
When the pastoral rumor heard the rumor, he blessed Mama Zeng: "Mama has worked hard to take care of the princess, and Ah Suo has just been in a hurry to speak, so I ask Mama for guilt here, and please don't go to my heart if I am offended!" "She just wants a step down, and she gives her this step.
At this time, the palace people brought the imperial doctor He in, and Mama Zeng suppressed the anger in her chest, and said stupidly: "What is the identity of Mama Ben, naturally I won't care about you, but you have to serve the princess well, if something goes wrong, no one can protect you!" After that, he saluted the princess and said: "The old slave is really old, this night has stirred up so many incidents, this old bone is about to fall apart, if there is nothing to do, the old slave will retire first!" β
"Mama doesn't need to be formal, let's go and rest!" After Ah Suo made such a fuss, this Mama Zeng suddenly learned the etiquette, but Princess Yuling was a little uncomfortable, and felt faintly uneasy in her heart.
After Dr. He made a diagnosis, he only said "I feel a little cold, take the medicine on time", and then prescribed the medicine and retreated.
After a few rounds of commotion, the sky was already slightly bright. There were only the princess, Iris, and the shepherd in the house.
"This Mama Zeng is treacherous and narrow-minded, after this trouble, she hates you, on the surface in the face of the princess, she is not good to trouble you directly, but in private there will be some bad tricks, you have to be careful!" Iris saw that she was resourceful, and she was devoted to the princess, and she had already regarded her as her own, and couldn't help worrying about her.
"It's okay! She can't help me for the time being! As long as the princess's poison is cured, I will leave here, and then she will not be able to trouble me if she wants to! "She just borrowed someone else's identity to live here temporarily, where would she be afraid of the old woman's revenge, but the real Ah Suo can no longer appear in front of them.
Mu Yu looked at the princess with a worried face again, stepped forward to hold her hand and comforted: "Princess, don't be afraid, you are the master of this Lingshui Palace." A slave who bullies her like that, the more you retreat from her, the more arrogant she becomes. Either way, there are iris to protect you, and your queen mother to support you! β
The princess, however, suddenly withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted, and shook her head palely.
Mu Yu only thought that she was used to being oppressed, and she was a little afraid of Mama Zeng, so she couldn't help but sigh slightly, there was only so much she could help her, and how to stand up had to rely on herself.
She stretched her waist, patted Iris on the shoulder, and said, "It's dawn, my night should be over, you can call another girl to serve, I have to go back to the house to make up for sleep!" β
In the secret room of the study of King Chen's Mansion, after Situ Yu read the news from the palace, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he shook his head helplessly: "Lingshui Palace? Empress Xiao's reverse scales! This girl is really a troublemaker, and she has made a lot of trouble in just one night! β
Qing Ming saw that his eyes showed doting, and he couldn't believe his eyes. He thought for a while, and said with some hesitation: "Big brother, do you really want to advance the plan?" β
"When did you see me joking about such a thing! All you have to do is get everything ready according to your plan. β
"Is it for the pastoral?" Qing Ming's eyes showed worry.
Situ Yu put the secret letter in his hand on the candlestick and burned it, and was silent for a while before saying, "You don't care about my business!" β
Qing Ming sighed heavily: "Sure enough! I should have thought that a woman like her is a bone-eating poison for men in the world, but what I didn't expect was that the eldest brother, who has always regarded women as nothing, would also fall in love. β
I wanted to be smart and understanding, and it would be good to be by my eldest brother's side, but I didn't want to, my eldest brother gave up life and death for her, and abandoned his revenge plan, which really went against his original intention.
"You're idle, aren't you?" Situ Yu impatiently walked out of the secret room and came to the study. He doesn't like others to comment on the matter between him and Mu Yu, not even Qing Ming.
Qing Ming followed, stood opposite him, and said reluctantly: "Ming is just worried that the eldest brother has lost his sense of proportion for a woman!" β
"You're questioning me!" Situ Yu furrowed his eyebrows in displeasure.
"It's not a question, it's true! You even broke into the 'Tianshou Palace' for her, and if you go on like this, I'm just afraid that ......"
"What are you afraid of? I'm afraid that I will abandon the 'Fengyuntang' brothers for her, and abandon the revenge plan? Situ Yu looked at him forcefully, "Could it be that in your heart, I am such a person who doesn't care about the overall situation?" β
Qing Ming was slightly stunned, and hurriedly retracted his gaze: "No, it's not!" β
"Since it's not, what are you worried about?" Situ Yu looked at the cloisonnΓ© paintings hanging on the wall, stretched out his hand and brushed them one by one, and finally stopped in front of a painting depicting a Buddhist temple.
The Buddhist temple in the painting is shrouded in golden light, mysterious and holy, but the painting is full of color is a young man outside the Buddhist temple and a really romantic girl. The two raised their little faces slightly, stood side by side, and were looking at the rising red sun in the east, as if they saw the hope of tomorrow...... "I have not let go of the hatred in my heart for a day, nor have I forgotten my promise to my brothers for a day!" Situ Yu's tone was heavy.
"It's Qing who meditates a lot!" In fact, he knew that his eldest brother's heart was heavy, and the burden on his shoulders was heavier, and he didn't want his eldest brother to live so tired. However, many things are not up to them. It's like a ship that has been put in the sea, and if it can't break the waves, it can only be overturned by the waves and sink to the bottom of the sea.
"Lord Wang, Xiao Jiu asks to see!" A voice outside the door interrupted their conversation.
"Come in!"
Situ Yu took the opportunity to change the topic, and Qing Ming saw that he couldn't listen to the advice at all, and sighed again in his heart.
"Lord Wang, my subordinates were ordered to investigate the tomb of 'General Xi', but they didn't want to catch a person in the cemetery!" Xiao Jiu was mysterious, and his eyes were shining.
"Who?"
"It's a woman, she said she was Concubine Lin's person!"
"Bring it in!"
Her people? Situ Yu and Qing Ming glanced at each other, their eyes flashing.
