Liu Xu pondered for a while before raising his eyes to look into Mo Ziyu's eyes and asked, "How do you know these things?"

He clasped his hands in front of his chest, squinted his eyes slightly, showed a hint of suspicion, paused and continued: "You sold yourself into the palace two years ago, if this king is not mistaken, you fled to the capital because of famine that year, and then entered the palace. Can read and write, use medical skills, and know the art of beast control, will a civilian woman know too much? What secrets are you hiding?"

Mo Ziyu smiled: "Is the prince finally interested in the concubine? The concubine still thought that the prince would never be interested in these things, but since the prince is interested, the concubine will tell the truth." ”

She took a sip of tea and said softly: "I am indeed from a poor background, otherwise I would not be a servant girl like the palace." However, my mother used to be a young lady in a large family, and then the family fell into the middle of the road and had no choice but to marry my father. It was my mother who told me to read and write, and it was my mother who told me some shallow medical skills, and as for the beast mastery, the concubine had explained it to the prince before. ”

These things were also inferred by Mo Ziyu from some of Jiang Liu's previous letters, and they should be eight or nine years old, even if Liu Xu investigates, what he finds out should not be much different from what he said.

"It's a pity that my mother went early, and I learned those things only scratching the surface after all. Mo Ziyu smiled bleakly, "It was not easy to make a living with my father, and then there was a famine, so I fled all the way to the capital." The prince hated the vulgarity of the concubine before, but the concubine had no way to beg for a living, but the concubine forgot that she was in the palace now, and she didn't have to think about the past anymore. ”

Liu Xu was a little moved when he heard this, held Mo Ziyu's hand, and said softly: "In the future, you don't have to live the same life as before, and this king will not make you suffer anymore." This king will no longer ask about your old affairs, but you just need to take care of your body. ”

Liu Xu still did not stay in Qiushuiyuan overnight, and left after comforting Mo Ziyu a few times.

"Do you think the Seventh Lady is a little different?" Liu Xu walked a few steps and stopped, glanced at Qing Yue behind him and asked.

Qing Yue didn't expect the prince to ask, thought for a while, and replied: "It's a little different." ”

"What's the difference?"

"It seems to have gotten smarter. The corners of Qing Yue's mouth hooked, and he shook his head lightly and said, "I finally know the prince's preferences." ”

"You mean, she's doing what the king likes?" Liu Xu frowned slightly, "Whether it's her in the past or now, maybe it's not the real her?"

"The prince once told his subordinates, not only the people in this palace, but also the people in this world, how many of them are not living with masks? ”

"Qing Yue sent a few people to the Seventh Lady's hometown to check it out. Liu Xu said, "She has indeed become smarter, but it seems to be too smart." ”

Liu Xu went straight to Qinghe Garden, and Mo Ziyu's words today still made him very puzzled.

Last time, Liu Changqing was almost injured by a Tibetan mastiff in the imperial garden, and there was a great secret behind it, he sent someone to investigate for a long time, but the clues were broken at a critical time, the witness committed suicide, the evidence was cleaned up, and the means were so clean and neat, there must be a preparation for him to deal with everything if he tracks it down.

The night was dark, and the fourth lady was very surprised by Liu Xu's coming, and got up to greet her. Personally brought a cup of tea, and the fourth lady asked suspiciously: "The prince came late at night, why did he come here?"

"I want to tell you about Qing'er. Liu Xu didn't drink tea, and his face was a little serious.

At the mention of Liu Changqing, the fourth lady's face became solemn, and she sat down and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Qing'er?"

"Qing'er's body has been weak and has not improved, but since eating the porridge sent by the Seventh Lady, her body has improved, this king asked Jiang Liu today, she said that it is because of mutual restraint. Liu Xu said.

The fourth lady was slightly stunned: "Does the prince suspect that someone has moved in Qing'er's diet?"

She lowered her eyes and continued: "The concubine body also had suspicions, but I paid special attention to Qing'er's diet, and the doctor checked it carefully, and found nothing abnormal. The porridge sent by the Seventh Lady is also very interested, but it is full of ordinary ingredients, but if it is used to restrain each other, it can also be explained, but I don't know what the doctor can't find, how does the Seventh Lady know?"

"Regardless of how she knows, this king does not allow anyone to threaten Dao Qing'er's safety. Liu Xu said, "This king will investigate this matter thoroughly, and he will not let Qing'er have any danger, but I am afraid that the people around him will have to be replaced." It was the king's negligence that almost made Qing'er have an accident under the king's nose. ”

"If there was no prince, Qing'er would not have survived, and now she can still look so handsome and smart, and my sister Quanxia should be very happy!" The fourth lady lowered her eyes and said softly.

"Qing'er is the only blood and blood of the imperial brother, and this king must protect it. Liu Xu said, "The imperial brother died unjustly, and this king will definitely do his best to wash away the grievances of the imperial brother, so that Qing'er can know his life experience, know that he has a great father, and a beautiful and kind mother." ”

"The concubine knows that the prince has always wanted to avenge the grievances of the eldest prince, but ten years ago, too many people were implicated, and the prince must be very careful. The fourth lady said, "Although the concubine is in the deep boudoir, she also knows that the court is not peaceful now, Concubine Yun and the five princes are eyeing each other, and if the prince is a little careless, he will never recover!"

"This king understands that this king wants to seize the throne of the crown prince, not only for the sake of the emperor's brother Zhaoxue, but also to inherit his legacy, his vision of the world, his ideals of the government, this king will take him to realize them one by one. ”

"Speaking of which, I really want to thank Mrs. Seven. The fourth lady lowered her eyes and said softly, "She has already saved Qing'er twice, and I also heard that she was injured this time to save the prince, and the prince should really treat her well." It's just that this palace is not calm, she has no power and power, and it is inevitable to be bullied, and the prince still has to take care of it occasionally. ”

"The king understands. Liu Xu got up, "It's not early, you should rest early." ”

"Don't go, Lord Wang, it's late at night, and leaving at this time is suspicious, so it's the same as before. The fourth lady got up and said, "The concubine goes to clean up the couch, and let Hexin serve the prince to wash." ”

"I'm tired. ”

A heavy rain swept away the scorching heat for a long time, and Mo Ziyu was able to get out of bed and move, occasionally walking around the yard to move his body.

Sister Wang looked at Mo Ziyu's recovered appearance, and wondered if this Mama Kong did what she said!

Mama Kong's heart is also anxious, could it be that rotten muscle powder is useless? If this Mo Ziyu is living well, how should she explain to the second lady? I have to think of another way!

Hongxuan obviously felt that she was alienated by Mo Ziyu, she wasn't sure if her identity was exposed, but Mo Ziyu was silent, so she didn't know what to do, and continued to wait and see.

At ten o'clock at noon, the third lady sent Mo Ziyu a hundred butterfly skirt, a set of packing, which can be regarded as the outfit of tomorrow's flower banquet.
