Chapter 8: The Deceased

The afternoon sun became lazy, and everyone in Qiushui Garden also rested temporarily, and the courtyard was finally quiet.

"Mama Liu, how is your body?" Bao's second daughter-in-law entered with a bowl of chicken soup, "Just out of the pot, make up for your body!"

"You still think about me, unlike those who have no conscience, I didn't miss my benefits before, and this accident is all gone!"

"When I was in the courtyard of the second lady before, I didn't get much of your care, how dare I forget?" Bao's second daughter-in-law smiled flatteringly, "You are loyal to the second lady, and the second lady can't do without you, so there must be other purposes for calling you to Qiushui Garden, right?"

Bao's second daughter-in-law used to be an errand in the Yang family, because her hands and feet were not clean, she was a restless person when she got there, if it weren't for her man who was a little good at eating in the palace, she would have been kicked out a long time ago, although she was now stuffed into Qiushui Garden, she still wanted to go back to the Yang family in her heart.

"You're also a transparent person!" Mama Liu smiled coldly, "Jiang Liu's little slut slapped the second lady in the face, and the second lady swallowed this breath?

Bao's second daughter-in-law rolled her eyes: "Then when the time comes, Mama Liu will say a few more words for me in front of the second lady!"

"My rough skin and thick flesh are nothing, and I don't care if I lose my old face, that little slut shouldn't have hurt my son, how can I watch her live happily?"

After taking a nap, Mo Ziyu got up and simply freshened up, and took the green and red silk to Tongzhi Courtyard to greet the princess. Because the princess was not feeling well, she was exempted from asking for peace in the morning and dusk.

Qiu Tong was still guarding the door, saying that the princess was resting and it was inconvenient to meet guests, although Mo Ziyu was still not allowed to enter, but the tone was much kinder than the last time.

"Why doesn't the princess still want to see the girl?" Lu Qiao muttered suspiciously, the last time the girl helped the princess to break the siege, the princess should be closer to the girl, why is she still so estranged?

"That's because the princess is a smart person. Mo Ziyu smiled slightly, didn't care, shook the fan and left calmly.

Qiu Tong saw that the seventh lady was so easy to send this time, and she still wondered in her heart, so she quickly returned to the house and reported to the princess: "The person is gone." The slave and maid looked at the seven ladies as if they had enlightened themselves, not like a useless person, since she had a close heart, the princess could keep it, maybe it would be useful in the future!"

"This girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and her eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to that person, if she is smarter, it is only a matter of time before she is favored by the prince. At this time, if I get too close to her, the second lady and the third lady still think that I want to use her to share favor, I don't want to fight with them for a long time, why let them hold a grudge. Now that the second lady is in the palace*, naturally someone wants to win over that girl, let's just watch the fire from the other side!"

Qiu Tong sighed: "The prince asked the princess and the second lady to ban the gambling in the palace together, and now the second lady is in full swing, but the princess is slow to do it, this is not to let her seize the opportunity, after this authority is released, it will be difficult to take it back in the future! To put it irreverently, in the future, the princess will only be the princess in name, and the heroine of this Qi Wangfu will be the second lady!"

The princess gently rubbed her temples, showing a touch of melancholy on her face, "Our prince wants to set me up, at this time I can only follow his wishes and be a person who has no quarrel with the world, who will let my father and brother have no family to fight! The second lady wants to be in the limelight, and let her be in the limelight, the more she is in the limelight, the more anxious the third lady is!"

Mo Ziyu did not go back to Qiushui Garden directly, but walked around the palace, although she had some impressions of the Qi Palace, she was not very familiar with it, and she had to get familiar with it as soon as possible.

This walk was an hour, and Lu Qiao's legs were weak, and she complained, "Where is this going, girl?"

"Just take a walk, move more, you can also activate the meridians and strengthen your body!" Mo Ziyu chuckled, "Since you are tired, let's just take a rest." ”

There is the sound of gurgling water in front of you, and you can follow the sound, and the winding path leads to a secluded place, which is a small stream.

Mo Ziyu saw that there was no one around, so he went to shoes and socks and played in the water.

In her previous life, she was the daughter of a famous family, her father and brother were both informal people, and she followed her master to taste herbs and travel all over the world, so she didn't take some rules to heart, and she was a little more casual and free.

Lu Qiao and Red Silk were also tired, so they found a shady place to rest and take a nap.

At this moment, a feather arrow suddenly slashed past Mo Ziyu's ear and nailed straight into the trunk of the tree behind him.

She was startled, got up hurriedly, heard footsteps, and hurriedly put on her shoes and socks.

As soon as he put on a sock, a white figure flashed over, he looked at Mo Ziyu's figure a little distracted, and looked at her busy appearance and secretly smiled, and saw that she had one foot exposed, hurriedly turned around and said, "Don't worry, I don't look!"

Lu Qiao and Hong Xuan hurriedly served Mo Ziyu, put on shoes and socks, and tidied up their clothes.

At this time, Mo Ziyu found a stone and sat down, and asked with a calm face: "Who are you?" This is the inner courtyard of King Qi's mansion, men are not allowed to enter, what crime should you be guilty of trespassing without permission!"

"I don't know if there's anyone here, I'm abrupt!" The person who came was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, dressed in white, with a face like a crown of jade, with a bit of chivalry and youthful spirit, with a few crystal beads of sweat on his head, and said very apologetically, "I'm sorry." ”

As he spoke, he walked towards Mo Ziyu, Mo Ziyu was stunned, the indifferent look on his face couldn't be maintained, and he shouted: "Stop, presumptuous!"

The young man smiled, stretched out his hand and pulled out the feather arrow on the trunk behind Mo Ziyu, and said with a gentle expression: "This thing doesn't have long eyes, so it scared you, right?"

"Not only did you trespass into the inner courtyard, but you also carried weapons, could it be an assassin?" Mo Ziyu frowned, "In broad daylight, what a boldness!"

"If I were an assassin, you and your two handmaidens would have died a long time ago!" the young man smiled, "Who are you, I have seen several ladies in the palace, why have I never seen you?"

"Brother Mi Zi!" a childish voice came.

"I'm here!" the boy replied, "Come here." ”

Purple Tree?

Mo Ziyu thought for a while, isn't this Nanchu Proton?

When the Northern Xia and Southern Chu went to war, Southern Chu sued for peace, and sent a prince to the imperial capital of Northern Xia, at that time, it was his brother who escorted him into Beijing, and he also had a relationship with him, thinking about it, it was six years ago, and the weak boy of the year has now grown into a handsome son.

Liu Changqing held a silver bow in his hand, trotted over, and asked breathlessly: "Why did Brother Qi Zi come here, so I can find it!"

"It's not a good thing you did, you almost hurt someone with an arrow?" said with a smile, with some reproach in his words.

"It's the Seventh Lady!" Liu Changqing clasped his fists and saluted, "I almost hurt my benefactor just now, I really deserve death!"

"I'm fine, and you don't have to blame yourself. Mo Ziyu fanned his fan and said, "You guys are practicing archery?"

"No one in this emperor can shoot arrows more accurately than Brother Qizi, and my father asked me to learn more from him. Liu Changqing said proudly, "My archery skills have improved a lot in the past few days, and my father praised me!"

"Seventh Lady?" Qi Zi glanced at Mo Ziyu a few more times, "How do I know that there is another Seventh Lady in King Qi's Mansion?"

"I haven't been on the jade butterfly, and I can't afford this lady, so I made my son laugh. Mo Ziyu lowered his eyes and said, "Since the prince and the prince are taking pity on archery, I can't bother, so I'll leave first." ”

After the words fell, Mo Ziyu left quickly with Lu Qiao and Red Silk.

"Hey, what do you see, that's my father's woman!" Liu Changqing said with displeasure when he saw Qi Zi's gaze lingering on Mo Ziyu's back.

"What's going on in your little head!" Mi Zi smiled, "I just think she's ...... It's just like one of my old friends!"

"Who is that person?" asked Liu Changqing, tilting his head.

"It's gone. A wry smile appeared on the corner of Qi Zi's mouth, and her expression was a little sad, "She may not remember me as a person!"

Recalling Fang Cai's matter, Mo Ziyu still felt shocked, if Fang Cai's matter was for others to see, it would be really difficult to argue.

It seems that he really can't slack off, this is not the General's Mansion, but the Qi Wang's Mansion, he is not the eldest lady, but the unfavored concubine, he can't make a mistake in his actions, if someone holds the handle, it will be difficult to turn over.

As soon as he bypassed a small road, a figure walked out of the shadows, Mo Ziyu screamed in fright, hurriedly took a few steps back, and looked at it, this person turned out to be Liu Xu.

Liu Xu was wearing a moon-white robe, looking more and more noble and handsome, and his narrow eyes were slightly narrowed, so that people couldn't guess his thoughts.

"The concubine has seen the prince. Mo Ziyu hurriedly saluted, "The concubine was out of shape, which made the prince smile." ”

"It's not like you've lost your temper once or twice. Liu Xu said lightly, "Fang Cai Yu arrow passed by, this king saw that your face did not change, why can't you stand the fright of this king?"

He has seen all the things just now?

Mo Ziyu was shocked, and hurriedly knelt down to ask for guilt: "The concubine is really out of character, please forgive the prince." ”

"It's just a natural outpouring, what a sin, get up. Liu Xu smiled lightly, his eyes softened a lot, looked at Mo Ziyu, and reached out to support Mo Ziyu's arm, "You grew up in the folk, and your nature is not bound by so many rules, as soon as there are many rules, you are like a puppet, putting yourself in a sleeve, everyone is the same, where is the fun?"

Liu Xu's hands were very cold, and there was a thin callus, Mo Ziyu only felt that the skin of his arm touched by him was a little numb, she raised her eyes slightly, looked at him with a full gaze, and asked in surprise and shyness: "The prince doesn't blame the concubine?"

Liu Xu withdrew his hand and said with a straight face: "Although this king appreciates these folk wild interests in you, but the physique must also be taken into account, and this matter is indispensable." ”

"Remember the concubine, I won't do anything that hurts my body again, and Prince Xie is magnanimous. Mo Ziyu lowered her eyes, looked at Liu Xu's cloud-bottom boots, and was slightly surprised in her heart, but today she made a mistake and left a special impression on Liu Xu, thinking that if you want to enter her heart, you must use some other means.

Seeing this girl in the past, this girl was not a seduction of scratching her head and making a gesture, but today seeing her appearance of advancing and retreating to a certain extent, Liu Xu's heart is a little fresher, could it be that she has changed her tricks? In the end, he was still smart, he paused slightly, and said: "In the evening, this king came to Qiushuiyuan for dinner." ”
