But this silly girl didn't know that happiness was never short-lived...

As ephemeral as that ephemeral.

Every time Mu Xue thinks about today, how can he sigh so much...

Nangong Li held her in his arms, feeling her dependence on her whole body, and her heart was full of satisfaction.

And at this moment, Mu Xue feels that the air is sweet...

Just as they were in the room, there was a faint sound of footsteps outside the door.

Mu Xue counted the hours for a while, and then remembered that she asked Yunzhi to go to Yunshangju in the afternoon, why didn't she come back at night?

She subconsciously looked in the direction of the gate, and saw Yunzhi hurrying over, a little curious about how this person went to Yunshangju for an afternoon, after all, this is not very far from Yunshangju.

When Nangong Li saw Yunzhi coming, his eyes were cold, as if he was indicating something.

Mu Xue sat on the edge of the dining table: "The things were delivered to Na Danya's hands?" ”

Yun Zhi nodded again and again: "It's delivered, but the slave saw that something big happened in the Yulou, so she paid attention there, and it was too late to come back." ”

It seemed that he could feel Mu Xue's next sentence to question himself, and this Yunzhi hurriedly explained the reason why he came back late.

But once a person's words become more than usual, most of them are because of her weak heart...

That's why it's so.

Mu Xue nodded clearly, it turned out that she was just going to see the excitement.

But Mu Xue was still stunned for a moment, Yulou, is it so coincidental?

Nangong Li turned his eyes slightly, and then instructed Yunzhi: "You go and tell the kitchen to prepare dinner, this king has something to say to the princess." ”

After Nangong Li left, her gaze did not withdraw from the direction in which she disappeared, but the words were said to Mu Xue.

"Xiao Xue'er, between Ah Li and this little girl, who do you believe?"

As soon as Nangong Li opened his mouth, Mu Xue's heart tightened.

It seemed that the fleeting instinct in her heart just now was right.

She turned her head and saw Nangong Li's expression extremely serious, and her heart beat with it.

She asked, somewhat uncertainly, "What's wrong?" Is it because she's done something wrong lately? ”

Nangong Li's gaze was slightly downcast, and his tone was three points more serious than Fang Cai.

"Xiao Xue'er, don't dodge, you answer the question just now."

Mu Xue bit her lip and subconsciously said: "I believe in you, but I also believe in Yunzhi, what's wrong with her, did she do something wrong?" ”

Although Mu Xue is not Mu Xue of this era, she has not been dependent on Yunzhi for fifteen years.

But for Yunzhi, it is indeed a real fifteen years of companionship.

Mu Xue still remembered that the emperor was dissatisfied with Nangong Li serving Mu Xue as if she was serving her master, and she doubted the people around her at that time, but she didn't doubt Yunzhi, which shows Mu Xue's trust in her.

"She lied..."

Nangong Li's tone was very sure, as if he not only knew that she had lied, but also knew where she had gone this afternoon.

"Why did she lie? Weren't you in the Jade Tower in the afternoon? Don't you see her? ”

Nangong Li pursed his lips, in fact, he didn't really want to tell Yunzhi about it, because he didn't want to see Mu Xue sad.

"I saw her."

Mu Xue subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you said she was lying, she just watched it for a while." ”

It's all come to this, and Nangong Li actually feels that there is no need to hide it.

"But this afternoon, I saw her coming from the direction of the General's Mansion, and she was accompanied by your little servant from the General's Mansion."

Yunzhi would communicate with the people of the General's Mansion, which was a very normal thing in Mu Xue's opinion.

After all, Yunzhi has also lived in the General's Mansion for seventeen years.

Although the people of the General's Mansion are not very kind to her Yunlan Yuan, Yunzhi has old knowledge in the General's Mansion, and this Mu Xue knows.

She still didn't think about the worst.

"She has old knowledge in the General's Mansion, I know this."

Nangong Li felt that she was pretending to be confused, and it was clear that with her intelligence, she should have guessed some clues a long time ago, but she didn't want to admit it.

Nangong Li did not puncture her self-deception.

Just slowly, peeling back the cocoon, telling her everything he saw and heard this afternoon.

"Xiao Xue'er, in fact, the pastry chef of the Jade Building didn't leave the capital for other reasons, it was Ah Li who drove him out of the capital."

Nangong is no less than a matter of driving a person out of the capital.

But Mu Xue believed that he would not do such a thing for no reason.

She pursed her lips and asked, "Why?" ”

"Because he dared to work with the people of the General's Mansion to do something in your pastry, and at this time, Ah Li saw Yunzhi and the people of the General's Mansion walking together, Xiao Xue'er, at this juncture, do you think there will be any connection between this??"

Listening to his words, Mu Xue opened her lips, wanting to defend anything but couldn't say a word.

"Ah Li, there is no direct connection to this matter, maybe it's just a coincidence, I'll ask her myself when I go back."

Mu Xue didn't want to admit it.

Nangong Li saw it.

He breathed a sigh of relief invisibly, then sat down next to her, rubbing her little hand in the palm of his hand and rubbing it carefully.

"Xiao Xue'er, Ah Li just wants to protect you, if she really is..."

Speaking of this, he paused, and saw that Mu Xue's expression was still normal, so he continued: "Then Ah Li will not let her go,"

Forgive him for being direct.

He didn't want to hide it from Mu Xue,

Because he had had enough of hiding the pain from her, it was better to let her know in the first place.

Just prepare her mentally...

Be prepared that Yunzhi will be executed by him.

"She won't, I trust her, and I'll investigate this matter myself."

There are two reasons why Mu Xue believes that Yunzhi will not betray her.

First, because now Mu Xue's respect as the prince and princess is Yunzhi's biggest reliance in the capital, looking at the entire capital, no matter who Yunzhi follows, he does not have the safety and majesty to follow Mu Xue.

The second reason is that Mu Xue's mind has always remembered that when Yunzhi was in the General's Mansion, he maintained his down-and-out self.

There is no reason why her life is thriving now, but she did such a betrayal of her master.

So Mu Xue firmly believes that there must be some misunderstanding in this....

"Okay, if you investigate it yourself, then Ah Li will not interfere, but don't be blinded by years of master-servant feelings, some things still need to be seen to be believed."

Nangong Li's use of seeing is believing to teach Mu Xue is actually a bit misleading to her.

Nangong has long had the intention of letting Fei Qi completely replace Yunzhi.

It's a good opportunity to deliver it to your door.

"Good. I'll be sensible. ”

This incident undoubtedly added a heavy shackle to Mu Xue's heart.

She couldn't figure it out, she intuitively felt that Yun Zhi and the people from the General's Mansion must have a reason that she didn't know.

Mu Xue didn't eat much at night.

It doesn't look like you have a good appetite.

She glanced at Yunzhi who was waiting on the side, got up and said to Nangong Li: "Ah Li, I'll go out for a walk..."

Nangong Li glanced at Yunzhi coldly: "You are so good that you are waiting for the princess." ”

After Mu Xue and Yun Zhi left, Nangong Li slowly put down the dishes and chopsticks, glanced at the direction where Mu Xue and Yun Zhi disappeared, and said lightly with thin lips: "This is your best chance to replace Yun Zhi, don't let this king down..."

Mu Xue is his.

The people who serve around him naturally have to know the roots, and in the entire General's Mansion, only Yunzhi, the maid, is not his.

He didn't bother to design to frame Yunzhi, but now this person is mixing with that Zhao Xiangning, so he can't find his own death? ?

Fei Qi bowed his head and whispered: "Yes!" ”

Yunzhi didn't know her situation yet, she was already staggering on the edge of the cliff, and she could fall off the cliff at any time, and then break her bones...

The breeze of the early autumn night carries three points of coolness, and at the end of the white sand embankment of the back lake is a pavilion with a hanging seat.

Mu Xue sat on the lacquered bench with her pregnant belly, adjusted her sitting posture, and then rested and looked at Yunzhi with flaws.

This glance made Yunzhi quite uncomfortable.

"Princess, you don't have a good appetite for dinner, the slave will go and tell the kitchen to stew you for supper later."

In fact, Yunzhi's courage is not very big, which can be seen from her action of subconsciously taking a step back just now.

Mu Xue lowered her eyes, and her voice was not particularly stern, and she even spoke a little gently.

"Yunzhi, let's marry this palace, it seems that the time is not short, right?"

"Well, in two months, in the winter moon, it will be a full year since you married this general's mansion, princess."

It's only been a year...

Mu Xue has the illusion that she has experienced more things in the past year than she has lived in her previous life for more than 20 years.

"Yes, I remember when I was in the General's Mansion before, we were bullied in the General's Mansion, and the master and servant were quite helpless, if it weren't for Brother Haifeng, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to hold it at all."

Mu Xue, who has been dead for a long, long time, seems to have an attachment to Mu Haifeng.

Even when he was seriously ill, he thought that he must get better, so that he could hold on until Brother Haifeng returned to the capital.

Mu Haifeng used to be Mu Xue's name that she kept shouting every sleepless night.

"Princess, why did you suddenly mention this, now that you have the prince's child, you can't make foolish thoughts anymore..."

Although there was a smile on the corner of Mu Xue's mouth, Yunzhi felt that the princess was not laughing, and even a little panicked.

"Yes, you can't have confused thoughts as a person, Yunzhi, you said yes?"

Mu Xue's words meant something, and Yunzhi listened to it with a sigh in his heart.

Finished...

Did the princess find out something.

"Well, that's what the princess said..."

Yunzhi was obviously weak-hearted, and his eyes had already been turned away when he answered.

Mu Xue's eyes flashed with disappointment, this was obviously something to hide from herself.

Is it because I've been too busy lately, so I've neglected her?

She didn't ask anything more, but said: "Recently, Concubine Ben beat Mrs. Zhao twice, and now the relationship between the General's Mansion and our palace is not very good, if you have nothing to do, you should have less contact with the people of the General's Mansion, so as not to make the prince unhappy when he knows." ”
