Chapter Eighty-Six: Returning Home
Zhao Ling's gaze swept over Mo Ziyu with cold and disdain, then looked at Zhao Xu, and said lightly: "I've seen the imperial brother." ”
"The Fifth Emperor Brother doesn't have to be polite. ”
"Early in the morning, the imperial brother has to enter the palace to pick up people, it is really busy! Now you should be anxious, and you are still in the mood to pick up your lady, if you want to come, the imperial brother must care very much. Zhao Ling returned his gaze to Mo Ziyu's body again, "What's so good about this woman that can make you so attentive to Brother Huang?"
He held his chin, paused, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "Brother Huang, your vision has always been good, and there must be a reason for you to be able to keep this lowly person by your side! This woman is indeed not simple, she is proficient in the art of beast control, and I heard that she also injured an assassin with a secret weapon yesterday, which can be described as brave and strategic! I'm afraid that she is not only your woman with the imperial brother, but also your right-hand man, right? Otherwise, she wouldn't have moved my person to warn me not to touch her, right?"
Zhao Xu actually warned Zhao Ling for himself? He never told himself.
Mo Ziyu glanced at Zhao Xu, he was surprised in his heart, and there was a burst of warmth again, was he too inward-looking?
Zhao Xu took Mo Ziyu in his arms, looked at Zhao Ling and said lightly: "What kind of woman I choose has nothing to do with the Fifth Emperor Brother." The fifth emperor's younger brother must have entered the palace to report something to his father, so I won't delay and leave. ”
When the words fell, Zhao Xu took Mo Ziyu's hand and left.
"You don't have to take his words to heart. Zhao Xu walked in front and said as he walked.
"Why not?" Mo Ziyu stared at Zhao Ling's back, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, "Did the prince really warn him for me?"
Zhao Xu stopped, turned to stare at Mo Ziyu, and replied seriously: "Yes." ”
Mo Ziyu didn't continue to ask, she had been chasing Zhao Ling's footsteps all her life, and she almost forgot the feeling of being cared for. She lowered her eyes and smiled at her lips, with a hint of sadness.
Zhao Xu raised her chin: "What's wrong?"
"The prince cares about me, I'm very happy. Mo Ziyu said, "Except for my relatives, the prince is only afraid of the people who care about me the most." I'm happy and happy. ”
Zhao Xu touched Mo Ziyu's hair, sighed softly, didn't say anything, the two walked out of the palace side by side, and the carriage of King Qi's mansion was waiting outside the palace gate.
When Qing Yue and Qing Ling saw them come out, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Qing Ling took a few steps forward and asked with concern, "Girl, are you okay?"
Mo Ziyu shook his head: "They are very polite to me, I'm fine, don't worry about me!"
"That's good, the people in Qiushuiyuan are waiting for the girl to go back!" Qing Yue shook Mo Ziyu's hand, "It's okay for the girl." ”
After getting into the carriage, Mo Ziyu asked, "The third lady is okay, she must have received a lot of fright yesterday." ”
"Let the doctor come and take a look, and there is nothing wrong with his body. I was really frightened, so I just had to rest for a few days. Zhao Xu said, "You have to remember, since someone is staring at you, then you can't make a mistake, and if you are wrong, you will leave a handle, this time I can bring you back, because the Queen Mother secretly spoke to protect you, if you fall into the hands of Yun Guifei, how can you live?
"It turned out to be the Queen Mother!" Mo Ziyu pursed her lips and smiled, "Am I picking up a life?"
"Don't be hippie and smile, have you remembered what this king said just now?" Liu Xu pinched Mo Ziyu's face and said.
Mo Ziyu's mouth was squeezed into the shape of a goldfish, and he said vaguely: "Remember, remember!"
Liu Xu lowered his head and imprinted a kiss on her lips, then let go of her, straightened up and sat in a proper manner, as if the disciple was not him.
Mo Ziyu's face was red, and her heart felt like a feather had floated through it.
"You have a lot of hostility towards the Fifth Emperor Brother?" After a short silence, Zhao Xu asked, "When you saw him, he was like a hedgehog, the thorns all over his body were open, full of hostility, and cold. ”
Mo Ziyu thought that she had covered it up well, but it all fell into the eyes of others, she turned her gaze to the side, and said in a cold tone full of hostility without concealment: "Have you forgotten that the prince not only wants to kill you, but also wants to kill me! ”
"In the capital, especially in the royal family, in this whirlpool of power, no one can be alone, only disguise can protect themselves. Wearing a mask, others can't see through what you're thinking, so that you can live and live well. ”
"If you wear the mask for a long time, you may not be able to take it off. Mo Ziyu said, "The prince can wear a mask in front of others, there are always a few people who can let the prince be the truest self, right?"
"There were. These words Zhao Xu was slightly stunned and then said, saying very ethereal, so that Mo Ziyu was a little unclear.
When the carriage arrived at King Qi's mansion, Zhao Xu did not get out of the car, but left with Qing Yue.
Mo Ziyu and Qingling returned to Qiushui Garden, and the people immediately rushed up to ask about the situation, and when they saw her come back, the stone in their hearts finally fell, and their faces were full of joy.
Of course, there are also people in this bustle who are watching coldly.
"I thought she wouldn't be able to come back from the palace, but I didn't expect to come back after only one night. Bai Ling snorted and said.
"If something happens to her, what good will it do to the third lady? Now the third lady needs her at the right time, otherwise this palace is really the second lady's world!" Du Juan said, "Before the child is born, don't mess around." ”
"Can't I help the third lady?" Bai Ling said disdainfully, and then touched the earring that Zhao Xu had rewarded, "Where am I worse than Jiang Liu?"
The cuckoo shook his head and sighed, continuing to embroider a baby dress without saying anything more.
After returning to the bedroom, Mo Ziyu simply cleaned up, he didn't eat all night, his stomach was already hungry, and after eating some things casually, he got up and went to Qiongfang Courtyard to visit the third lady.
I didn't expect that the second lady was also in this Qiongfang courtyard.
The third lady did not rest in bed, but sat with a pale face and an uneasy expression, and the second lady was a servant girl kneeling on the ground.
"The slave and maid know that it is wrong, the second lady will spare the slave and the maid this time!" The maid slapped herself a few times, "The slave and maid really know that it is wrong, and she will never dare again, the second lady will give the slave and maid another chance!"
