Chapter 41: Two Suspicions
In the Chenwang Mansion, the blossoming camellia is blooming. Situ Yu didn't want to appreciate it, he stood in the pavilion, looking at the koi fish competing for food in the water in a daze, thinking about the scene of that day.
That stupid woman, knowing that she had a hidden guard, knowing that the palm was highly poisonous, but she still blocked that palm for him in the most stupid way, could it be that she was also like those vulgar fans, and wanted to use such vulgar means to show favor to him?
The strangest thing is Situ Yun, I didn't expect that he, who has always ignored mundane things, would agree so easily to use his baby snow toad to save people, but he is really hateful, he didn't allow his own people to stay, and I don't know how that stupid woman is doing now?
Xiao Jiu walked through the garden, strode to Situ Yu's side, and bowed his head and said, "Lord Wang, the shepherd girl's hidden guard really found the young man of Qingming. ”
"Qing Ming can tell him the whole story?" The cold voice was as good as ever.
"The young man did not tell in detail, only said that the shepherd girl blocked a palm for the master in an emergency, and we have tried to save it. But that man was not a good talker, and he knocked down the three guards around Childe with one move, and he also spoke wildly. ”
"What did he say?" The deep eyes were still staring at the koi fish that was pressing the opponent's body and jumped up to grab food.
"He said that if there is any mistake with the shepherd girl, he will let the whole Changli be buried with him!" Xiao Jiu took a deep breath and probed Situ Yu's expression, this person was too arrogant to dare to say such a big thing.
Situ Yu's eyes flashed with a gleam, half a sound, and continued to ask, "What happened?" ”
"Later, the young prince of Qingming told him that the shepherd girl was healing in the 'Suxin Garden' of King Yi, and he didn't say a word, turned around and left."
"Then how did he react when he heard the name of 'King Yi'?" Situ Yu squinted at Xiao Jiu.
"This..."Xiao Jiu tried his best to recall what he saw at the time, "He was stunned for a moment, and there was still a trace of panic in his eyes. "I didn't expect the prince to ask so carefully, but fortunately, I observed carefully enough at that time.
Situ Yu pursed his lips lightly, his eyes were sharp, and the cold air dispersed.
The relationship between her and Situ Yun is really unusual. In the "Suxin Garden" that day, Situ Yun behaved lightly, but the surprise that flashed in the eyes of the guard Zuo Heng when he saw the pastoral rumor did not escape his eyes. No wonder he agreed to save people so readily, is he still thanking himself for sending people to him with his own hands!
The more he thought about it, the more irritable he became, and the more gloomy his face became.
Xiao Jiu didn't dare to come out on the side, and he didn't know why the prince had changed his face. Just when his heart was going up and down, Ye Chao appeared like a savior.
"Lord Wang, Gonggong Li has sent a list of candidates for the concubine and his wife this time, waiting for the prince to take a look." Ye Chao, who didn't know why, said to Situ Yu with a smile on his face.
The prince returned to Beijing two years ago, in addition to the two concubines given by the emperor, has not married a concubine, this time by the emperor to celebrate his birthday, "Chen Wangfu" is also lively, the prince is also good as soon as possible, it is really a great thing.
"No need! Tell him that I am satisfied with all the candidates, and all those who are interested in entering the government will be accepted. The tone was colder than ever. It's just a matter of raising a few more women, and since they love to send them to him, he will take them all.
Ye Chao was happy in his heart, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, so he asked Xiao Jiu who was standing aside with his eyes, who knew that Xiao Jiu had a blank eye, and he was even more puzzled in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he had to respond.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard Situ Yu say, "Wait! Is the position of the concubine Xi Ruoya? ”
"Back to the prince, I don't know who the concubine is, but according to Gonggong Li, Xi Guogong rejected the prince's proposal and wanted Miss Xi to marry Prince Sangyue." Fortunately, he was smart enough to know that the prince cared about Miss Xi, and he had just bribed Gonggong Li a little.
"Tell Gonggong Li that this princess is not Xi Ruoya! The rest will be as I said. "Old thief Xi really won't let himself get his wish, but his abacus may not be too good.
Ye Chao got the order, turned around and walked out of the garden, and went to talk back to Gonggong Li.
Mu Yu recuperated in the "Su Xin Garden" for a few days, every day Situ Yun would personally check her pulse, and he would drink tea and chat with her in his spare time, after some contact, Mu Yu's understanding of him has improved a lot, but she never mentioned the matter of jade pendants.
In the afternoon of this day, Mu Yu calmed down and sorted out some things again.
On the same day, I overheard the conversation between the stinky old man and his father in the "Snow Bath Mountain Villa", and realized that the father he had called for ten years was not his own father, and they only said that their father had died on the battlefield sixteen years ago, and then they refused to confide in him a word, and even refused to tell his father's name. The words were flickering and full of loopholes, and the stinky old man knew that he couldn't hide it, and he didn't want to tell the truth, so he deliberately let himself go down the mountain to find the truth.
Now it seems that there are many doubts. Back then, when his parents were able to climb to the imperial family, they wanted to have a lot of weight in the Changli court, could his father be the General Xi they said? If it is really a battle death, it can be regarded as a hero of Changli, how could the stinky old man let himself hide in the "Snow Mountain" for more than ten years, and also made a solemn rule that "you are not allowed to enter the imperial city of Changli".
Could that be what they call self-slaughter? A battle-hardened general does not die on the battlefield, but dies under his own sword, I am afraid there is some ulterior secret in this! But if Daddy is General Xi, then what's going on with the current Zhenguo Gong? And why did this Situ Yun deny the existence of this Feng Pei, did he want to ruin the marriage or did he have another hidden secret? Who instructed the "soul departure" that reappeared after 16 years?
Countless questions lingered in Mu Yu's heart, and he just wanted to hurry back to the capital to uncover the truth of the matter, so that he could clearly know his life experience.
lived up to the expectations of the pastoral rumor, and two days later, Situ Yun took everyone on the journey back to Beijing.
Since he denied the existence of Feng Pei that day, Mu Yu has calmed down a lot. The world has changed, and it has been sixteen years since the marriage contract was made, and if it wasn't for my brother to mention it, I wouldn't have known about it at all.
Besides, he and him are just new acquaintances, there is nothing else between the two except a marriage contract, although he likes him a little, but he still doesn't know if he has a heart for himself, if he only relies on a marriage contract and can't get his sincerity, it is not the marriage that Mu Yu wants.
What's more, Bai Zhi and Hui Lan have said in her ears more than once that Gong Yuhe, the concubine of the Prime Minister's family, is very likely to become their princess Yi, and the meaning of these words is very obvious, so Mu Yu has to think that this Situ Yun is afraid that he has another love and wants to break the marriage contract.
Since seeing the portrait, Mu Yu has imagined thousands of possibilities after meeting, but he never thought that he would be divorced. If there is really such a thing in the future, even if she wants to retreat, she must not let him take the lead, when has she ever been disliked.
In short, before everything was figured out, she decided to deal with it with a normal heart and deliberately kept a distance from him.
Mu Yu was not happy, and she was not in a good mood along the way, Bai Zhi and Huilan only thought that she was about to separate from the prince, and they were unhappy. But Situ Yun vaguely felt the rejection of him in her heart, and she was quite puzzled.
On that day, Fengyu was a small road, and it took four hours to get to Lancheng quickly, this time it was the official road, although the distance was much closer, but considering that Mu Yu was seriously injured and had not healed, Situ Yun specially ordered the carriage to go slowly. So, after walking slowly for half a day, I stopped for a short rest in a dense wood.
Everyone was using dry food and drinking water, when suddenly the sound of horses' hooves sounded in front of them, and in the slight dust, a white horse carrying a black figure galloped past, thinking that it was just a passerby, but he didn't want the sound of hooves to be far away, and the black shadow of the white horse turned back.
The man in the black brocade robe on horseback swept towards everyone with a solemn face and sharp eyes, and suddenly jumped up from his horse without saying a word, and swept towards one of the carriages.
