Chapter 80: One mystery implicates another
"Qiluo!" No one answered, and Xiao Liangyun realized that she seemed to be out of the palace again, and she didn't know what to do in the early morning. Qiluo's efficiency has always been recognized as fast and good, since she went out to inquire about the news at the dinner party that night, coupled with the continuous departure from the palace this week, Xiao Liangyun didn't know which line in the palace she had taken it, so she got on the information network. In the middle and second half of the month, Qiluo went in and out of the palace dozens of times.
After calling another maid who served him to serve his daily life and diet, in the morning, Xiao Liangyu was planting some medicinal herbs in the courtyard of the palace. Although it was cold in January, she wrapped a warm curtain. It's just right to plant April chrysanthemum and woody stalk grass.
I don't know if it's because of her special physique, she hasn't had any adverse reactions since she was pregnant. There is no need to vomit or eat in particular, and it is still easy to walk as if you were not pregnant. Every time Zhu Ming came over to finish the pulse and tell her about the situation of the child in her belly, she felt inexplicably interesting and comfortable, maybe giving birth to this child was not as bad as she imagined.
When she first thought of this, Qiluo suddenly walked quickly from one end of the corridor, and looked at her hurried appearance, afraid that she had something to report. "Miss!"
"Huh?" Xiao Liangyun, who put down the kettle, paused to look at her for a while.
"Come into the house and talk, I have something to tell you." In a hurry, she was afraid that she had found something, and fine beads of sweat were on her forehead.
"Okay." The two of them went into the house and bolted the deadbolt. "I have been running back and forth to the palace for the past few days, and I have asked the merchants who have been doing business in the house and this city for many years, and the news I got is like this. Queen Fu was His Majesty's wife more than ten years ago, Queen Fu was gentle and virtuous, knowledgeable, good at reading all kinds of literature and poetry, and was a virtuous queen. When Empress Fu was alive, she once created a new weaving pattern for the embroidery girls in the palace, and also led the poor women in the capital to learn weaving and farming. But when the queen mother was pregnant with the seventh prince, His Majesty met Yu Guifei Niangniang at the same time, and it seemed to be love at first sight for the mother, and then I didn't know why I heard others say that the queen mother was jealous of the concubine's pregnancy, and then poisoned the concubine's fetal pills, and even arranged for the mother's family to force the palace to besiege the city in an attempt to rebel, and finally was beaten into the cold palace, and his face was scratched, and he didn't even see His Majesty's last face. After saying everything in one breath, Qiluo gasped aside.
"I see?" Xiao Liangyun, who was sitting on the chair, slowly fiddled with the lid of the teacup, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Yes, that's right, those old ladies also said that they don't believe in a queen who has always been gentle and kind, never fight, and never likes to fight, and finally poisoned and colluded with foreign ministers. It is also for this reason that the prince has not been favored since he was a child, and the prince was born to the age of four or five when he was obviously one of the best smart and dexterous children in the palace, but since the queen died, the little prince is also confused and does not like to talk and becomes like a stupid person. β
"I see."
"Oh yes, miss, Qiluo has something I want to say, but Qiluo doesn't know whether to say it or not, and I don't know if it has anything to do with anything else."
"What's the matter?"
"The year when Queen Fu was framed for forming a party for personal gain, it also happened to be the year when Miss and Mrs. were slaughtered and framed for victimization."
"Bang!" The teacup in his hand suddenly became unstable and fell to the ground one by one.
was silent for a long time, and Qiluo didn't take the initiative to ask her about the situation, she seemed to like to be in a daze, and when she was in a daze, she would think about things, and it was easy to think a lot when she thought about things, and she didn't want to disturb her at this time.
Things seem to be getting closer and closer to the truth as she developed, but it doesn't seem to be the same as she thought, there are some deviations in development, and there are too many things and people involved. What's going on, it's just a small old case, involving Hades, Xiao Yu, Wang Huiyan, the Warden Division, and even the former queen. The Queen Mother also knows her mother, so will the Queen Mother also know something about the things of the year?
Thinking of this, she got up and looked for something on the shelf, flipped out the book she used every day, took a pen and turned a page.
Slowly wrote down the word Fu Min, and then circled it aside.
"Princess, someone asked to see you." Outside the house, Yun'er knocked on the door to report. The master and servant winked at each other, put the book back in their place, and opened the door.
I saw that it was Xiao Yu who she had almost never thought of.
"Xiao Yu?"
The name blurted out, she really hadn't thought of it. "Why are you here?"
"Surprised?" I don't know why, Xiao Yu's voice and speaking attitude are much calmer, and she seems to be surprised by Xiao Liangyu's reaction. She was dressed in a purple palace robe, with a graceful and luxurious appearance, but her face was full of sorrow.
"Sit, sit, make tea." armrest, Xiao Liangyun motioned for her to sit here.
The two sat together, but for the first time there was no quarrel in harmony. The elder sister is the seventh princess, and she is the prince's concubine, and the two daughters of the Xiao family have really earned a lot of access and face for their father.
"Are you surprised that I came today?"
"Surprised, I thought you should be the one who hated me the most." Yun said lightly and lightly said what he hadn't explained before, but it was much more comfortable.
"Hehe, you're being honest."
"Xiao Yu, this palace thinks, when you came to the palace today, you shouldn't just come to mock me."
"Of course not, I just want to talk to you."
The inexplicable loss, inexplicable loneliness, and inexplicable helplessness made Xiao Liangyun immediately remember the scene where the Lantern Festival did not bring her into the palace. "Prince, how many concubines have been accepted now?"
"You are as your mother said, smart and quick-witted. You said, if I didn't underestimate the enemy back then, I believed my mother's words and killed you in the house. I don't think there will be so many things. β
"Xiao Yu, you are really too naΓ―ve." With a sneer, Xiao Yu found that Xiao Liangyun's expression was very penetrating. "Do you still think that when I entered the house, I was still a person who was easily bullied like when I was a child?"
"Actually, it doesn't matter if it's not." She stared at the jade bracelet in her hand, in a daze.
Xiao Liangyu remembered that this bracelet seemed to be given by the emperor to Helian Yan and Helian Ye at the time of the wedding, and each person had a jade bracelet, which was an excellent jade tribute from Myanmar.
"The prince is not good to you?"
"Hehe, hehehe, you say, it's okay if he's not good to me, it's okay, I like him myself. I'm willing to wait for him to make changes for him, and I'm sure he'll like me one day. When he liked you, I thought I might be going to marry someone I didn't love, I broke down, I cried, I begged my mother and father. As a result, unexpectedly, I seemed to get my wish, I married into the prince's mansion, and I could meet him. That night, he didn't come. I'm waiting for me every day and every night, I thought, maybe he just likes you temporarily, you are already married to the Seven Kings, and you are also in love, and sooner or later he will know that I love him. But what? However, he seems to like everyone except me, he married a woman of the fourth grade as a side concubine, and he called Chunxue Chuxue all day long, and he found many Kabuki in somewhere else, and sang day and night in the house. It's not like him, it's not the gentle and ambitious young man I saw when I was young. As she spoke, she became emotional, and tears followed. She got up and walked up and down the house, stroking the flowers in the vase in the house.
"Is it that I can never compare to you, when I was a child, my mother always said, how did you win Xiao Liangshu if you were so bad and stupid, later, she said that I was not as beautiful as you, and then she said that I was not as smart as you, indeed, in the end, I married people who didn't love me. But I don't want to do anything to you, you're pregnant. Speaking of this, her eyes softened somehow, staring at Xiao Liangyun's abdomen. I, I also want to get pregnant sister, I also want to have a prince's child, but he doesn't touch me, he doesn't touch me at all, even when my mother forces him, he just whips my body. Xiao Yu sat back in her seat.
"Don't you hate me? Why tell me these things. β
"You think I'm going to talk to you? In my eyes, Xiao Qingqing is not worthy of being my sister who I agree with, only you, you are qualified. I tell you because in this huge place, no one is worthy of friendship, and no one is the same. β
Qiluo stood aside, always wary of whether this second lady would make some unexpected or outrageous moves, and unexpectedly, Xiao Yu might really just come over to complain, crying and not knowing what to say.
"Did you bring someone from the Prince's Mansion? I came to the Seven Kings' Mansion today, and I passed it on to the prince? β
"No, I thought, anyway, this prince's mansion is also cold, no matter how cold you are to me here, there is a human smell here, but the prince's mansion does not. It seems to be lively, but in fact, no one cares about you at all. β
In fact, she herself is just a poor person.
After she stayed in this palace for a while, she drank a few glasses of wine, and when she was called by Qiluo to send her back to the prince's mansion in a daze, she was still muttering as if she didn't know what to say.
Standing at the gate and watching her slowly move away, "It's windy outside this house, although the temperature is not as cold as yesterday, you have to pay attention." Be careful not to catch the cold. β
"I know. Actually, Qiluo, I have a question for you. β
"Why is Miss so polite today?"
"I, I want to go to Tianji Pavilion."
"What do you say? Last time! They're all going to kill you! I also went to throw myself into the net. β
"I know, but only the Heavenly Machine Pavilion has those deepest secrets."
