Chapter Ninety-Six: Such an Ugly Face
The green trees of the garden are the walls, and the bamboo is the barrier, which is quiet and cool.
On the second day of the wedding, because he knew that Lin Wanyan was injured by an assassin, the emperor sent someone to send a lot of rewards. Since then, there has been no visit to the "Haoqing Garden".
At this moment, Mu Yu leaned back on the chair and looked at the beautiful and elegant orchid beside him in a daze. A little sunlight poured down from the dense foliage, adding some warmth to her plain white body.
Tomorrow he will get married, I wonder if he will be as elegant and elegant as ever in the groom's clothes, or as radiant as the sun? However, she believes that no matter what kind of style, he will be the most dazzling one. Not because he is the groom's official, but because of his dusty temperament that cannot be hidden.
Unfortunately, she couldn't see it for herself.
He must not know that he has pretended to be Lin Wanyan and married into the Chenwang Mansion!
I don't know if he has been to Fenghua Garden again, or if he thinks of her......
Although the June sun scorched the earth, her heart was as cool and shady as the breeze in the shade of the tree.
Situ Yu stood on the dirt slope behind the garden, quietly looking at the woman on the chair, his eyes getting colder and colder.
Looking at a pot of orchids, his eyes can be full of tenderness, if it is for Situ Yun himself, I don't know what kind of lingering it will be.
Thinking of this, those deep eyes were even colder as frost.
Out of sight and out of mind, just about to turn around and leave, he suddenly saw Ye Chao walking towards the garden with a group of women on the path outside the garden.
What does this do? Is Ye Chao confused?
He unconsciously took two steps forward, trying to figure out the purpose of the women.
Probably because the garden is too quiet on weekdays, the stunned pastoral rumor was startled by this unexpected noise.
"Cut the painting, what are you going to see?"
As soon as the words fell, I saw that Rong Yin had already replied: "Concubine Hui Lin, it's Sister Shuang'er who is back, and Master Ye, but they are followed by many women, like the ladies of the palace." "She didn't know the woman in this palace, but Xi Ruoya had secretly seen it once, and she had some impressions.
"Oh? Frost is back! Mu Yu's heart was excited.
But how could the ladies of the palace come with them? Princess Nachen must have come, did she blame herself for not offering her tea and greetings?
Just as he was thinking about it, a burst of footsteps entered the garden, and the two girls said in unison: "The slave has seen the princess!" ”
"Well, get up! Are you the girls of 'Mao Qingyuan'? Xi Ruoya raised her eyebrows and looked at the two pretty little girls in front of her, feeling very embarrassed.
"Hui Niangniang, yes!" The cut replied with a smile.
"Why didn't I see you two come to the training that day?" As the mistress of the palace, on the second day of marrying into the palace, the housekeeper summoned all the subordinates of the palace to listen to her lecture according to the rules. But there don't seem to be these two girls in my memory.
"Hui Niangniang, these two girls were originally following the prince, and the two of them directly obeyed the prince's orders, not the subordinates of the palace." Ye Chao hurriedly explained.
When everyone heard this, their faces changed. The little pride that had been born because of the remoteness and simplicity of this garden suddenly came to naught, but it added a little resentment.
When they interrogated the two of them, Ling Shuang took the woman in purple and walked straight to Mu Yu's side and said softly, "Miss, Shuang'er is back!" ”
Mu Yu nodded to her, fell on the face of the woman in purple, suppressed the excitement in her heart, winked at the two of them, and said lightly: "Well, it's good to come back!" ”
"Oh? It turned out to be the person next to the prince, no wonder he looked different from the servant girl elsewhere. It seems that Concubine Lin is really loved by the prince, and even the maidservants are the people around the prince. Here, Xi Ruoya forcibly suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, and looked at the woman covered with light veil on the chair in a soft voice.
"The concubine has seen the princess!" Because the chair was facing the garden gate, Mu Yu had to lean sideways and reply: "Niang Niang misunderstood, the prince treats the concubine no differently, but he took pity on the concubine and was injured, so he sent the two of her to take care of her temporarily for a few days." ”
As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look at the princess who was loved by Situ Yu, wasn't this the woman who walked with Situ Yu on the Qinghe Bridge that day? From a closer distance, it is really delicate and elegant, and it is so dazzling among the beauties, but the arrogance revealed between the eyebrows and eyes is a little aggressive.
Thinking of Qing Ming's appearance when she talked about her, she understood a little, but would a person like Situ Yu fall in love with such a beauty?
And Xi Ruoya also looked at her, because the light veil covered her face, she couldn't see what her appearance was, but those eyes made her breathe. A good clear as water, bright as stars in the eyes, the skin exposed at the corners of the forehead is snow-white and delicate, and the shiny and supple green silk is picked out a little, lazily tied in a bun on the top of the head, and the rest is scattered on the shoulders at will, which is indescribably lazy and sexy. If she is not a beauty, I am afraid that no one will believe it.
The women who followed Xi Ruoya also looked at each other silently, with different looks in their eyes, some amazing, some jealous, some doubtful, some apprehensive, and some incredulous......
Mu Yu used the corner of his eye to see everyone's expressions, and sighed in his heart.
"You are all sisters in the palace, you are like smoke and broken bodies, and you really don't want to go. It's hot in the yard, so it's better to sit in the house. Cutting paintings and making sounds, I am not too quick to wait for the princess and wife to enter the house to rest. ”
"No, move the chairs to the yard, the air here is nice and cool." Xi Kuya kept staring at Mu Yu's face, and her blazing eyes seemed to want to penetrate the veil to see her appearance carefully.
"That's fine. Bring all the chairs to the courtyard and put some fruit on them to quench your thirst! Mu Yu motioned for Ling Shuang to turn the chair in the direction so that she could talk to them head-on.
The two of them got the order and immediately went to work.
In the blink of an eye, the two girls arranged everything properly, Xi Ruoya, Mrs. Xi and Lu Ling'er sat down one by one, but Qiaoxin, Yong'er and other concubines and maidservants, because the princess did not speak, could only stand on the side.
"Sister Lin is really blessed by misfortune, not only is Master Ye personally taken care of, but also served by two capable girls, and it is not in vain that she can be so loved by the prince." I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Lu Linger would always say such sour words at the right time.
"Who is this sister?" The pastoral rumors are a little big, these difficult women, they are really afraid of anything, they are hiding in this kind of place, they can all find the door, fortunately they have been prepared.
"She is Concubine Lu, the third lady of Jingzhao Yin Mansion, Lu Ling'er." Xi Ruoya introduced lightly.
"It turned out to be Concubine Lu, my sister laughed, the prince just pity the concubine." Mu Yu glanced at Lu Ling'er, her delicate appearance was similar to what she had guessed before, but the brilliance in her eyes was different from the weak and amorous temperament she imagined.
"Why should my sister be humble, isn't the prince good enough for my sister?" Lu Ling'er chuckled reluctantly, her appearance was very simple and humble, making people feel that this was completely unintentional for her to ask.
But Mu Yu understands that her words are undoubtedly trying to put herself in. If the answer is yes, isn't it blaming the prince for treating him badly; If the answer is no, it is to admit in public that he is different in the heart of the prince, which is equivalent to erecting a group of enemies for himself. It's really calculating!
Her heart sank, her brows furrowed slightly, this Lu Ling'er didn't know whether it was true or innocent, but she was so ignorant of advancing and retreating, she might as well beat her.
"Look at what my sister said, we are all the women of the prince, isn't the prince the same good to everyone? I think my sister is looking for death and wants to marry into the palace of King Chen, if the prince is not good, how can my sister be so sincere? My sister thinks it's this reason? Mu Yu's eyes were bent into crescent moons, and she looked at Lu Ling'er affectionately, she was a master in acting.
And as soon as these words came out, everyone showed a sarcastic smile.
Lu Ling'er's face changed even more, she understood that the original incident was spreading in the capital, and everyone knew about it. But I thought that everyone would hinder face to some extent, so as not to mention it in person, but unexpectedly, this Lin Wanyan showed no mercy and revealed her scars in front of everyone. I was ashamed and angry for a while, but I didn't have a good seizure, so I had to say stupidly: "Sister Lin is right, the prince is good to us." ”
Xi Ruoya is happy to see this situation, but her mind is more on the face under the light veil.
Although Mu Yu saw that Lu Ling'er was not angry, she finally stopped talking and stopped thinking about it.
"I heard Master Ye say, your leg is not lightly injured, but this princess doesn't understand medical science, and she can't help much, I will ask Chunmei to send two hundred-year-old ginseng to you to make up for your body, which can be regarded as doing your best." This kind of face-saving thing has to be done.
"How dare you ask the princess to break the bank, the concubine is really deserved!"
That's a lot to say! They are all their own sisters, what is worthy of it, but they are just two old ginseng, and they are not a rare thing. If you still need to speak, as long as you can make your legs get better as soon as possible, and relax the heart of the prince, it is stronger than anything else! ”
"So, Wanyan thanked me first!" Saying that, she tried her best to bow her body and bow her head to thank Xi Ruoya.
But a gust of wind blew from nowhere, and the light veil covering her face slid down at one end, revealing an extremely ugly red and swollen face, with a few acne scars and pus dripping from her face.
"Yikes! Someone exclaimed.
Mu Yu hurriedly put the veil on his face again, panicked and embarrassed, as if someone had broken the secret and was at a loss.
Xi Ruoya finally had a smile in her eyes, it seems that the rumors are true, such an ugly face, it's a pity for those eyes. No wonder Situ Yu arranged her here, I'm afraid she was scared when she saw that.
"Wanyan is a little uncomfortable and out of company! You guys keep playing, you're welcome, what do you need for Ling Shuang to prepare! With that, she hurriedly beckoned the two of them to carry her into the house.
"Since Concubine Lin is tired, we won't bother, let's go back!" Xi Ruoya got up elegantly and waved everyone to leave.
As soon as everyone recovered from their surprise, they immediately changed into a good mood and said goodbye to the pastoral rumors.
The corners of Situ Yu's mouth, who watched the play on the slope, hooked up a smile, this woman is really cunning and changeable!
She doesn't care about her appearance so much, she doesn't compete for favor so calmly, she really wants to keep herself out of it!
The deep eyes instantly became cold again.
