It's only early winter, and the temperature in Pingjing City is already very low.

Even most of the people in the palace are martial arts practitioners, and they have to change into cotton clothes.

There was still a slight drizzle covering the sky, and Mo Bai stood alone in the pavilion, silently watching the rain fall into the water, causing a ripple.

Ah Jiu's footsteps sounded behind him, and he had already entered the pavilion in a short time: "Sixth Master, the carriages and horses have been arranged, and they are ready to set off at any time." ”

Mo Bai nodded lightly, withdrew his gaze from staring at the pond, and turned to look at Ah Jiu: "I'm afraid it will be a short time for me to travel this time, so you can discuss with Lu Xunyi more in case of trouble." ”

"Yes." Ah Jiu bowed.

Mo Bai didn't say more, took out a small jade bottle from his arms and handed it to Ah Jiu: "This is the spirit pill I refined by Yuqing, this medicine pill is indeed unique, it can not only support the mother's vitality, but also help the child's innate foundation, there are nine pills in this medicine bottle, and one pill is taken every three days one month before the princess gives birth." ”

Ah Jiu took it, hesitated, and still asked, "Before you leave, don't you go to see the princess?" ”

Mo Bai didn't answer, just patted him on the shoulder: "The house will be handed over to you." ”

With that, leave quickly.

Ah Jiu looked at the medicine bottle in his hand, and then at Mo Bai's blurred back in the rain, sighed lightly, and shook his head.

In front of the Ming Palace, twenty black-clothed guards were already waiting on horseback.

Lu Xunyi and others were already waiting at the door.

When Mo Bai appeared, Ning Er stepped forward and put the cloak on Mo Bai.

Mo Bai looked around at everyone and nodded at Lu Xunyi: "After I leave, everything in the house will be left to you with full control." ”

"Sixth master, rest assured!" Lu Xunyi clenched his fists and took his life.

Mo Bai looked at everyone again, and finally his eyes fell on Qingqing who was standing at the door: "Stay at home, don't make trouble." ”

Qingqing's lips moved, but she never returned the mouth.

"Gone!"

Without further ado, Mo Bai turned around and got into the carriage.

The sound of horses' hooves soon disappeared in front of the palace gate.

When the people and horses walked away and could no longer see them, at the end of the line of sight, the sound of horses' hooves was suddenly heard.

Lu Xunyi and Ah Jiuyun had enough eyesight, and through the rain curtain, they saw several carriages galloping towards them, and the direction was the Ming Wangfu.

Lu Xunyi glanced at the sign on the carriage and glanced back at Ah Jiu.

"Is it the Cabinet's car?" Ah Jiu asked.

Lu Xunyi bowed his head: "His Royal Highness promised to return the quartermaster case to the third division for review, no, as soon as His Highness leaves, they will come immediately." ”

When Ah Jiu heard this, he just nodded, didn't say much, and turned his head to beckon Ning'er and Qingqing to return home.

Foreign affairs are Lu Xunyi's authority, and Ah Jiu can see it, but he can't manage it.

However, Lu Xunyi's gaze glanced at Ah Jiu who turned around and entered the mansion twice.

He could feel that Ah Jiu had recently broken up with him, and if it was in the past, Ah Jiu would inevitably talk to him more.

But now he strictly abides by the rules and doesn't say a word.

Lu Xunyi shook his head slightly, his gaze swept away from Ah Jiu, and then fell on Ning Er, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Of course, he knew that all of this had come from a previous incident.

That's right.

At this time, Ah Jiu, who took Ning'er and Qingqing back to the house, disappeared from the smile on his face after turning his back to Lu Xunyi.

He is indeed separated from Lu Xunyi, and it can even be said that he has begun to be wary of Lu Xunyi.

As Lu Xunyi thought, everything originated from before, when Ning Er went to tell the princess the truth about Chu Ruocai's death.

To be honest, before this incident happened, Ah Jiu never imagined that Lu Xunyi, who he had always regarded as a brother and was not wary, would suddenly put him along.

Before, the princess was clamoring to go out of the house to find Chu Ruocai, but Ah Jiu really had no choice, so he looked for Lu Xunyi to discuss countermeasures.

As a result, Lu Xunyi promised to help, but as soon as he turned his head, he asked Ning'er to tell the truth directly to the princess.

This undoubtedly made Ah Jiu sit on wax in an instant, and he was not a human being on both sides.

On the prince's side, he didn't do a good job and was scolded.

On the princess's side, because he has been hiding the truth, there is an estrangement with the princess.

The sixth master scolded him, but the estrangement on the princess's side will have an extremely far-reaching impact on his future.

He is very clear about his position, and he will take charge of internal affairs for the prince in the future.

A person who can't be trusted by the princess can smoothly take care of the princess's internal affairs?

Ah Jiu is not stupid, he knows very well the impact of this incident on him, but he can't figure out why Lu Xunyi wants to harm him anyway.

Of course, during this period of time, he pondered over and over again, and vaguely, he also had some ideas.

Lu Xunyi did this, it couldn't be just a whim, since there was no grudge between the two of them, then Lu Xunyi must be for the sake of profit.

Ah Jiu thought about it, this whole thing, if anyone got the benefits, it might only be Ning'er.

When everyone chose to hide it from the princess, Ning'er told the princess the truth.

There is no intimate princess in this huge palace, and since then, she has accepted Ning'er.

Thinking of this, Ah Jiu seemed to have lifted the fog in front of him and found the true purpose of Lu Xunyi's doing.

Yes, not only Lu Xunyi, anyone who really understands His Royal Highness will definitely know that His Royal Highness and the princess do not seem to be close, but in fact, the princess has a very heavy weight in His Royal Highness's heart.

Especially now that the princess is about to give birth again, the princess's position in the palace will only be more stable in the future.

However, Tie Xiong and the others have always been separated from the princess.

Lu Xunyi suddenly put him together this time, that is, he saw an opportunity to get close to the princess, and Ning Er was the best tool.

Ning'er is Tiexiong's own sister, and the princess can accept Ning'er, so the grievances between the princess and Tiexiong are equivalent to resolving most of them.

Because of this, Lu Xunyi and the others chose to put him together for their own future.

To be honest, after figuring out this, Ah Jiu's heart was very complicated.

Ning'er was able to gain the trust and acceptance of the princess, and Tiexiong and they were able to reconcile with the princess, which of course Ah Jiu was very happy to see.

But as a flesh and blood body, Ah Jiu really found it difficult to accept Lu Xunyi using this way.

If Lu Xunyi had discussed with him in advance and did this again, he would have agreed.

But Lu Xunyi didn't, Ah Jiu had to realize that he was still an outsider in their hearts after all, and he was not accepted and trusted.

With the knot in his heart, Ah Jiu can no longer treat Lu Xunyi as before.

When I came back to my senses, I found that I had arrived in the inner courtyard.

Ning'er and Qingqing were no longer around, they should have entered the house.

Ah Jiu raised his feet and planned to go in, but in a flash, he thought of the princess's distant eyes when she looked at her, and retracted her steps.

With a wry smile, a cold wind blew, Ah Jiu couldn't help but shiver, as a person who practiced martial arts, he couldn't tell whether he was cold in body or cold in his heart at this moment!

Silently squatting under the eaves, looking at the rain curtain in front of him in a daze.

Inside the house.

Lin Suyin is still bedridden.

Since arguing with Mobai that day, she hasn't gotten out of bed.

Ning'er went to prepare soup for her, and Qingqing sat on the edge of the bed, peeling an orange in her hand.

After peeling it off, it was handed to Lin Suyin, who glanced at it, shook his head, and lowered his eyes again.

Seeing this, Qingqing sighed and had to eat it herself.

After a while, Ning'er came in and saw Qingqing sitting on the edge of the bed eating oranges, and suddenly felt angry in her heart, how could she care about the princess eating herself.

Unconsciously, she pursed her mouth, Qingqing now knows absolutely about Ning'er.

As soon as I saw her expression, I knew that she had misunderstood again, but she didn't care, the more she ate, the more energetic she ate, and she also liked to watch the little girl look angry and unhappy.

"He's gone?"

The sudden sound from the bed made the two people who were stunned and looked at the bed at the same time.

Lin Suyin didn't know when she had raised her head, although her face was pale and a little sickly, her appearance was still beautiful.

After the two of them came back, they deliberately avoided the topic of the prince's departure.

Lin Suyin suddenly took the initiative to mention it, and both of them were a little caught off guard.

"Go, go, go!" Ning Er was holding the soup in her hand, her mouth stammered, but her eyes looked at Qingqing.

Qingqing was speechless, and as soon as her thoughts turned, she smiled and said: "Let's go, let's go, it's clean now, and I won't bother you again." ”

Lin Suyin turned her eyes to look at Qingqing, and she was silent for a long time.

Rao is Qingqing is more outgoing than Ning'er, and now he was also a little hairy by Lin Suyin, and he turned his eyes away with a smile and didn't know what to say.

After a while, Lin Suyin finally asked, "Qingqing, you have been staying with me recently, was it ordered by Mo Bai?" ”

"Ah......" Qingqing was stunned, then came back to her senses, her eyes turned, she nodded immediately, and seemed a little embarrassed: "It's not exactly, I don't have anywhere to go, it's good to come and accompany you......"

"She came all day long, and she didn't do any work, she just came to eat...... "Ning Er said dissatisfied.

Qingqing really took this stupid girl.

Peeked at Lin Suyin again, only to see her eyes lowered again, and she couldn't see what she was thinking.

Qingqing got up and went out, and when she saw Ah Jiu squatting at the door, she beckoned to him.

Ah Jiu looked at Qingqing speechlessly, motionless.

"Come here, I have something to ask you!" Qingqing beckoned again.

Ah Jiu got up at this time, and the two walked away.

"Let me ask you, before Mo Bai left, you didn't tell him to let him come to see the princess?" Qingqing asked with a straight face.

Ah Jiu frowned: "Qingqing, even at home, you can't call the prince by his name." ”

"Okay, I remember, you can say it quickly." Qingqing doesn't entangle him with this.

"I said it, it's just the sixth master......" Ah Jiu shook his head.

"He's not coming?" Qingqing turned around twice in place and said, "If others don't come, don't you even have a word?" ”

"I left a bottle of medicine pills." Ah Jiudao.

"Yao Dan, what Yao Dan?" Qingqing asked.

"It's for the princess to eat, you don't understand, I still have something to do, so I'll go first." Ah Jiu said, and was about to leave.

"Oh, what's the hurry?" Qingqing stopped him: "Don't think I'm looking for trouble, if it weren't for the fact that your Ming Wang's Mansion is full of a group of elm pimples, I really can't stand it, and you let me take care of me and I'm too lazy to take care of it." ”

"What the hell do you want to do?" Ah Jiu frowned.

"I said, your heart is so big, Mo Bai threw the princess with a big belly here and said leave, you don't care what the princess thinks?" Qingqing pointed to the princess's room and asked.

"The sixth master has his own considerations." Ah Jiu was silent.

Qingqing looked at Ah Jiu: "Ah Jiu, it's not me who said, there is not a single normal person in your Ming Palace." Okay, you hurry up and give me the medicine pill that Mo Bai left for you. ”

"Qingqing, the medicine pill is for the princess, no joke." Ah Jiu refused without hesitation. With that, turn around and leave.

"Hey, you're waiting......" Qingqing chased after him.

After a while, the two came back together, and Ah Jiu's voice soon sounded in the room: "This is the medicinal pill that the prince personally went to find the Yuqing Zhenren and asked him to help refine before leaving......"
