Chapter 22: Holding Grudges
"Ma'am, it's not good"
In the courtyard, Zhang Xuanyu frowned and looked at the visitor
"Xiao Tao, you're not by Miss's side, what are you doing here?" Mama Xu said
Xiao Tao said anxiously, "Madam, it's not good." As soon as the young lady came back, she locked herself in the room, and the slave was afraid that the young lady would do something stupid, so she couldn't open the door no matter how she knocked."
"What!" Zhang Xuanyu was startled and hurriedly ran out
"Madame!" Mama Xu hurriedly followed
Zhang Xuanyu only hopes that her Xi'er is safe and sound
"Xi'er, open the door quickly!" Zhang Xuanyu kept banging on the door
But there was not the slightest movement inside
"Madam, get up quickly, let the old slave knock this door open!" Mama Xu had already sprinted towards this door
Zhang Xuanyu hurriedly dodged away
I only heard a "bang", and the door made a loud sound
"Quick, you guys together" Looking at the family on the side, Zhang Xuanyu hurriedly shouted
As several people continued to bang, the door was finally overwhelmed, and "Peng" opened
What caught his eye almost made Zhang Xuanyu dizzy
"Quick, put the young lady down!" Looking at Xu Xi hanging on the beam, Zhang Xuanyu only felt top-heavy
"Xiao Tao, you go and call the doctor" said, Mama Xu hurriedly said
Xiao Tao hurriedly turned around and ran briskly outside
"Xi'er, why are you so stupid!" Zhang Xuanyu had already come to Xu Xi's side, and tears flowed down her face
His hands pressed against her chest
"Mama, go to my box and bring that elixir!" Zhang Xuanyu's frightened hands began to tremble
"The old slave is going," he said, and he had already run out of the door
"Xi'er, wake up!" Zhang Xuanyu had already cried silently
Pressing on her chest
"Ahem, ahem," only to hear a voice from beneath him
Zhang Xuanyu hurriedly let go of her hand and slowly helped her up
"Mother, am I dead?" Xu Xi looked at her with a smile on the corner of his mouth
Zhang Xuan choked up and said, "Are you stupid!" You can't bear to leave your mother alone."
"It turns out that I'm still alive," Xu Xi said, Xu Xi raised his hand, but it fell quickly
Zhang Xuanyu wiped her tears, "It's okay, you're okay"
As she spoke, the servant on the side lifted her up and slowly moved towards the bed
"Xi'er, let's sleep first" gently brushed the broken hair on the side, Zhang Xuan said softly
I saw Xu Xi nodding and slowly closing his eyes
"Madame, ma'am! The doctor is here," Xiao Tao kept panting, and next to him was an elderly man
Zhang Xuanyu hurriedly said, "Doctor, please show the little girl" and said, and told me everything just now
I saw that although the doctor was surprised in his eyes, he didn't show anything
Seeing this, Zhang Xuanyu's face softened a little
"Madam, Mademoiselle is fine. It's just that the mood is too fluctuating, just rest for a while" Reaching out and putting his hand into the quilt, the doctor looked at Zhang Xuanyu
Zhang Xuanyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you so much, doctor, Xiao Tao went to get a double portion of the consultation fee."
"Yes," Momo retreated
Looking at the person in front of her, Zhang Xuanyu smiled and said, "Please also ask the doctor to keep it secret"
"It's nature," the doctor chuckled
At this time, Xiao Tao came over with the silver
"Thank you, ma'am," the doctor said, taking the silver from her hand, with a smile in his eyes
Zhang Xuanyu looked at him and nodded slightly
"Let's all go down, Xiao Tao, you stay" Zhang Xuanyu waved her hand tiredly
"Yes"
Xiao Tao lowered her head and stood aside
Looking at Xu Xi, who had fallen into a deep sleep, Zhang Xuanyu said, "Xiao Tao, what happened, where did Xi'er go?" ”
"Plop", Xiao Tao had already knelt down in front of her, and choked up, "It's all Xiao Tao's bad, I didn't stop Miss"
"Miss, she, she went to find the Sixth Highness"
Although Zhang Xuanyu had expected it in her heart, when she heard these words coming out of her mouth, she still sighed lightly, "What happened?" ”
"It's the girl from before, and she's back" After speaking, Xiao Tao had already lowered her head, "and, and ......"
"And what!" Zhang Xuanyu was full of anger at this time
"Your Highness and her seem to have gotten along" Xiao Tao's body kept trembling, afraid that she would transfer her anger to herself for a while
"What a slut!" At this time, Zhang Xuanyu had really hated Zuo Yanmo
Listening to her words, there was consternation in Xiao Tao's eyes. No one could have imagined that the dignified lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion would have such vulgar language
"Don't worry, Xi'er, my mother will avenge you" Looking at the person on the bed, Zhang Xuanyu said softly
At this time, Zuo Yanmo, who was still writing and drawing, didn't know that he had been targeted
After a long time, he shook off his somewhat sore hand and got up and stretched
Pick up the rice paper that has been dried on the side, fold it, and put it in your arms
"Before you know it, it's noon" Looking at the bright sun outside the window, Zuo Yanmo chuckled
Hearing the sound of his stomach, Zuo Yanmo stood up and walked towards the door
Outside the door, the person who caught his eye made Zuo Yanmo startled
"See Niangniang" looked at Shangguan Zhongling in front of him, and hurriedly said
Seeing her standing in front of him intact, Shangguan Zhongling breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, helped her up and said, "You don't have to salute with this palace."
Zuo Yanmo chuckled and stood up with her strength, but he didn't take her words to heart
"Let's go, it's time for lunch" Shangguan Zhongling took her and walked towards the side room
With a smile on the corner of her mouth, Zuo Yanmo followed her and went to the side hall together
There, someone has been waiting for a long time
"Little sister-in-law, sit here" Seeing them walk in, Chen Yuan hurriedly waved his hand
Zuo Yanmo looked at him and smiled slightly
"You kid. Of course the girl is sitting here" Shangguan Zhongling scolded Chen Yuan lightly and put Zuo Yanmo next to Xuanyuan Yunmo
Zuo Yanmo suddenly didn't want to sit here, but felt the strength of his hand and slowly sat down
Shangguan Zhongling nodded with satisfaction
Zuo Yanmo looked at the food in front of him, and the food was boring
She suddenly remembered that the queen mother was just because Xuanyuan Yunmo was better to herself, so she was getting better and better to herself. If, Xuanyuan Yunmo is disgusted with himself one day, then whether it is the queen mother, Chen Yuan and Xiao Yu, I am afraid that he will not treat himself as he is now
Thinking of this, a trace of mockery crossed Zuo Yanmo's eyes
Xuanyuan Yunmo couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, and her lips tightened
Shangguan Zhongling also noticed that something was wrong with the two and looked at Shi Kaiyu
How could Shi Kaiyu know what happened to the two of them, and shook his head helplessly
"Girl, is the food not palatable?" Shangguan Zhongling said softly
Hearing this, Zuo Yanmo paused and looked up at her, "No, the queen mother." The meals were delicious"
As he spoke, he picked up the fish and meat that Xuanyuan Yunmo had sandwiched for himself in the bowl
Looking at her smile, although there was no problem, Shangguan Zhongling still felt something strange
Shi Kaiyu's eyes crossed a touch of deep meaning
Zuo Yanmo lowered his head and ate the food in the bowl, and there was no need to pick up some other dishes at all. After all, Xuanyuan Yunmo would put the food into her bowl first
Feeling the breath of the people beside him, Xuanyuan Yunmo had an indescribable dullness in his heart
"I'm full" quickly ate the food in the bowl, Zuo Yanmo got up and left
Seeing that something was wrong with her, Xuanyuan Yunmo pursed her lips
"This ...... What's going on? Shangguan Zhongling whispered
Xuanyuan Yunmo looked at her back and didn't speak
Shi Kaiyu said, "Maybe it's not a good mood"
At this time, Zuo Yanmo had already come to the courtyard, felt the scorching air, and really didn't want to go out. But the depressed feeling in my heart made me even more uncomfortable
Thinking of this, he raised his feet and walked under the tree
With a light sigh, he lay down on the grass and looked at the mottled sky through the shadows of the trees
"It seems that the previous worry-free food and clothing really made me lose my way." Zuo Yanmo muttered and slowly closed his eyes
But I felt a shadow in front of me
Zuo Yanmo's eyes rolled slightly, but he didn't open his eyes
Feeling that there was one more person beside him, Zuo Yanmo moved to the side
Sensing her reaction, Xuanyuan Yunmo only felt puzzled, obviously it has been good these days, but now why has it changed again
"You...... Are you angry? After pondering for a moment, Xuanyuan Yunmo spoke
Hearing this, Zuo Yanmo opened his eyes, and his gaze fell on him.
I saw the light of the shadow of the tree fall on his body, as if it had been plated with a layer of golden light, shining brightly
Looking away, Zuo Yanmo said lightly, "No"
Xuanyuan Yunmo, who was obviously aware of her cold attitude, pursed his lips, did not speak, and lay beside her
Even Zuo Yanmo didn't know why he wanted to speak to him in such a tone, it was obviously his own problem, and he had to treat him like this. Thinking of this, Zuo Yanmo sighed lightly, turned to look at him and said, "I'm sorry, it's just that I wasn't in the mood just now" Before he finished speaking, he saw his lips move slightly, "Follow me, you never need to say sorry"
Hearing this, Zuo Yanmo was stunned, his eyes were full of emotion, and even the corners of his mouth were unconsciously raised
"In the afternoon, I'll take you to see your shop" Xuanyuan Yunmo looked at her, a smile on the corner of his mouth
Zuo Yanmo chuckled, "Are you sure?" I don't have a penny in my hand."
"Hmm" Xuanyuan Yunmo nodded and looked up at the sky
Zuo Yanmo chuckled and slowly closed his eyes
The breeze blew the broken hair of the two
In the Ningqiu Palace, Nan Ya said lightly, "It's time for you to take care of yourself."
"Mother" Xuanyuan Ze frowned slightly
"When you succeed, what kind of woman can't be seen, why live at this time?" Nanya frowned
Xuanyuan Ze said perfunctorily, "Erchen knows"
Looking at her vigilant look, Xuanyuan Ze was puzzled, "Mother, things have already been arranged, why are you worried?" ”
"Hmph" Hearing this, Nanya snorted lightly and said, "The power behind Xuanyuan Yunmo is unfathomable, and over the years, how many assassinations have failed"
Xuanyuan Ze hurriedly looked around vigilantly
"Don't worry, the hall is full of confidants" Nanya, who knew what he was afraid of, said lightly
Xuanyuan Ze breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and said puzzledly, "Mother, look at the minister, my father didn't give him a particularly big official?" ”
"Idiot!" Nanya scolded secretly, "Don't you know, the military department is taking over Xuanyuan Yunmo!" ”
"What!" Xuanyuan Ze was taken aback, "But, but, Erchen has never seen him"
"That's because Xuanyuan Yi is helping," Nan Ya snorted coldly
Yes, every time I see Xuanyuan Yi coming in and out of the military headquarters, I still think, I think I ........ Is that what it looks like?
Nanya gasped lightly, "You did a good job in this matter. All you have to do is probe the news from the mouth of the palace maid."
"Yes," Xuanyuan Ze saluted
Seeing his appearance, Nan Ya was angry and waved her hand impatiently, "Go down"
"Yes" A dark light flashed in Xuanyuan Ze's eyes, and he turned and retreated
Looking at his back, Nanya sighed lightly, "Alas"
"Niangniang, why are you in a hurry? You don't know Your Highness," the palace maid on the side picked up the teacup and put it in her hand
"Huh" Nanya took a sip and said helplessly, "How can you not be in a hurry, now that all the princes have reached adulthood, it won't be long before this emperor will abdicate." Now everyone in the palace thinks that His Royal Highness is the most suitable person, and even the emperor loves him so much."
Fu Ju squeezed her shoulder lightly and said softly, "For so many years, the slave maid has never discovered his secret power, it is really the incompetence of the slave maid."
"I don't blame you" Nanya patted her hand and said, "If you want to blame him, you can only blame him for hiding too deeply", and sighed lightly
Xuanyuan Ze, who had already left the Ningqiu Palace, was full of unhappiness, "Really, don't I just play with a woman." Besides, I did everything you said truthfully."
The more Xuanyuan Ze thought about it, the more angry he felt, and he left the palace quickly
"Isn't that the Third Highness?" Zuo Yanmo and the others, who had just walked out of the Imperial Garden, saw Xuanyuan Zezheng walking out with a gloomy face
Xuanyuan Yunmo said lightly, "Chen Yuan"
"Yes" Chen Yuan nodded and followed
Zuo Yanmo looked up at him
"Let's go," Xuanyuan Yunmo said softly
Hearing this, Zuo Yanmo nodded. He followed him towards the other gate
The moment she walked out of the palace gate, Xuanyuan Yunmo put a mask on her
Seeing her looking at herself puzzled, Xuanyuan Yunmo chuckled "Let's go" and said, about to take her hand
Zuo Yanmo avoided him and didn't let him touch him
In the end, he still couldn't win him, so he could only let him lead
"It's like being caught by a cat," Zuo Yanmo was constantly self-hypnotizing
The two who heard her whisper had smiles in their eyes
Looking at the flow of people around him, Zuo Yanmo only felt that there were more people today than usual. Puzzled, "Why are there so many people here?" ”
"This is South Street," Xuanyuan Yunmo explained, "In Kaiyuan, there are a total of four markets, among which South Street and East Street are more prosperous, and South Street is even more prosperous. Most of the people here are high-ranking officials, so the prices here will be relatively high."
Hear the words. Zuo Yanmo nodded understandingly
I saw Xuanyuan Yunmo stop
Zuo Yanmo looked up and saw a high-rise building in front of him, because of the protrusion of the part, it became the most conspicuous position on this street
"This location is good, but the price is definitely not cheap" Zuo Yanmo looked at this building and thought, "However, if it is used to make a restaurant, it must be very attractive" I looked at the back of this building, and saw that every two will have a restaurant business, if you can occupy this place, just in the first place, you have already won a lot of people
Listening to her analysis, Xuanyuan Yunmo nodded
Shi Kaiyu on the side was taken aback, but she didn't expect her to have such observation and insight
