Chapter 276: Suggestion
Xiao Changting pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and probably told Du Mingyue about the events of that day.
Du Mingyue held her cheeks, looking really like she was thinking hard, and after a while, she said, "Your Majesty, the concubine feels that this matter is not a very big problem. ”
Mu Yuan cares about the feelings of the son, which shows that she has a son in her heart. Shiko was angry because his beloved woman and his best brother were in the dark and windy night...... Secretly meet. Any man would be angry. ”
Xiao Changting didn't speak, and Du Mingyue continued: "Since the two of them are in love, and the prince has misunderstood you, it is better to ...... You gave a marriage and married Mu Yuan to the prince, which directly disintegrated the prince's resentment against you. ”
"Marriage?" Xiao Changting's heart stabbed fiercely, and the pain spread from the center of his heart outward, "Why did I do this? After all, he is a courtier, I am a king, why does he have a grudge against me, and why do I do such boring things in order to dissolve his resentment? ”
Du Mingyue's heirs came in to take things away, and cleaned up the tabletop, and after waiting for people to go out and close the door, they went around to Xiao Changting's back, helped him pinch his shoulders to relieve fatigue, and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood, the concubine is not for you to please anyone." Resentment is something that everyone has. It's better for the prince to see this kind of thing than those who hide it in their hearts, don't say it, don't show it, and secretly look for opportunities to take revenge. ”
Xiao Changting didn't answer, which was a tacit acquiescence. But the marriage is ......
He has already given it once, but Xie Zhan himself doesn't cherish it, why do he want him to give it again?
"I feel that it is difficult for a strong man to give marriage. If Mu Yuan really likes Brother Zhan, the two have already reunited, why have they dragged on until now? ”
Xiao Changting couldn't tell whether he was thinking about Xin Muyuan or whether he was unwilling and unwilling to do so.
Du Mingyue said: "Maybe it's because of the attitude of the Duchess of the Protector. The relationship between Mu Yuan and the Duchess of Huguo has not been very good, especially the personalities of the two, which are really far apart. If they want to get along safely, they must go through a difficult run-in. Madame's attitude is there, Mu Yuan is just in the way of face, and he will not marry the prince. ”
Xiao Changting felt that he had found a reason, and said: "You also said it yourself, the Duchess of the Protector does not approve of this marriage, and Mu Yuan ...... Boss Xin himself didn't make up his mind to marry the prince, so I rashly gave the marriage, wouldn't it make the prince happy and provoke Boss Xin's resentment? ”
"It's the concubine who is not thinking about it." Du Mingyue didn't insist anymore.
Xiao Changting rubbed his eyebrows, feeling that he was hasty: "I know about this matter, I will find an opportunity to mention this matter to them." You go back first, I'm a little tired. ”
"Yes." Du Mingyue got up and retreated backwards, not even looking back.
Xiao Changting suddenly remembered Luo Qin.
Sure enough, whether you love someone or not, even if you pretend to be like it, you can see it.
He couldn't look at the words on the fold anymore, so he simply put it away, went back to Panlongju to rest for a while, and asked Gonggong Shen to invite Xin Muyuan over, and at the same time sent someone to the Protector's Mansion to invite Xie Zhan over.
After thinking about it, he asked people to go to Wanshengfang to buy a lot of Xin Muyuan's favorite pastries, and went to Yizhong Pavilion to buy the most popular jewelry hairpins at the moment, laid out a table, and waited for Xin Muyuan and Xie Zhan to come over.
Xiuli Pavilion.
Xin Muyuan lazily lay in the courtyard to bask in the sun, today Du Mingyue said that she was a little tired, and she didn't want to experience the services of Liying Shengxiang, so she gave Xin Muyuan a day off.
The five hundred taels of silver she had saved had been left in just a few days, and the day she had left was getting closer and closer.
"Your Majesty sent you to Panlong Residence." Du Mingyue hugged the extra-large doll she bought from Liying Shengxiang and said.
Xin Muyuan laughed dryly, didn't move, and said, "That's Panlong Residence, it's the emperor's residence, what am I?" Aren't you looking for death when you get there, don't you go? ”
She is a dignified yellow flower girl, go to someone else's dormitory, do you want her innocence?
"I heard that Xie Shizi is also going." Du Mingyue rolled her eyes and found that Xin Muyuan had already stood up and started to sort out her clothes.
"What does it matter to me whether he goes or not? If it weren't for the fear of disobeying the imperial decree, I really wouldn't want to move. Xin Muyuan complained.
Du Mingyue pursed her lips and snickered.
Protectorate Mansion.
Xie Zhan put down the case file in his hand, his face gloomy.
"Shizi?" The eunuch who passed the message thought that Xie Zhan hadn't heard it, so he called again, "Let's go, Your Majesty is waiting in the palace." ”
Xie Zhan didn't speak, put down the case file in his hand, and got up to leave.
The eunuch's face was gloomy, but after all, he was not as high as Gonggong Shen's status, so he didn't dare to throw his face at Xie Shizi, so he could only follow him with a gloomy face.
Xin Muyuan and Xie Zhan arrived at Panlongju almost at the same time, the two glanced at each other, Xin Muyuan just wanted to say hello, and saw Xie Zhan withdraw his gaze and enter Panlongju directly.
The anger suddenly came up: "Hey, Xie Zhan, ...... you"
Forget it, she has a lot of adults, and she doesn't know as much as this bastard boy.
The eunuch led Xie Zhan to the front of Xiao Changting in Panlong Ju, and then retreated. Xie Zhan glanced at the dense things on the table, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.
Xin Muyuan also came in from behind, and stood next to him.
Xie Zhan squinted his eyes and glanced to the side, respectfully saluted Xiao Changting, and asked, "I don't know what is the important matter for Your Majesty to come in a hurry?" ”
Xiao Changting smiled and asked the two to sit down, and said, "It's not an important matter, it's just that I haven't seen the two of you for a long time, and I want to talk to the two." ”
He glanced at Shen Gonggong, Shen Gonggong understood, and retreated with the people around him, leaving only the three of them.
Xin Muyuan glanced around and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I am a woman, and entering Panlong Residence is enough to cause gossip." Now that the others are backing away, it's just me as a woman and you two men, isn't it a little too good? ”
Xie Zhan sneered and said, "You have asked Your Majesty to meet alone with Xianluci at night, what else is there to be afraid of?" Why don't I step back and leave only the two of you? ”
Xin Muyuan raised his eyebrows: "I think so too." ”
"You!" Xie Zhan looked at her fiercely, his anger almost rushing out of his eyes, and his fists were clenched to control his urge to rip off her skull.
After a moment, he turned his head angrily and said, "Not necessarily! "You don't have to think of it that way!
Xiao Changting sighed and said helplessly: "Brother Zhan, you believe me, it was really just a misunderstanding that day. Even if you can't trust me, you should always trust this woman you've liked for so long, right? ”
Xie Zhan pursed his lips, still puffing out his breath and did not speak.
Xiao Changting fiddled with the gifts in front of him and said, "Actually, I asked you two to come over today, not only to explain what happened that night, but also to discuss one more thing with you. ”
