Without any warning, Zhao Xu actually came to Qiushui Garden, which surprised everyone.

As soon as the words outside, Zhao Xu, who was in a moon-white robe, walked in quickly, and when he saw the scene in the courtyard, his slender thick black eyebrows wrinkled, and he asked in a low and majestic voice, "What's the matter?"

Bao's second daughter-in-law suddenly broke free from the shackles of the two maids, cried and crawled in front of Zhao Xu, crying: "The prince saves the slave and the maid, the girl wants to kill the slave and the maid!"

Zhao Xu's eyes glanced at Mo Ziyu like Gu Tan, and the calm surface hid a deep coldness.

"Although they are subordinates, their lives are at stake, how can they kill them at will?"

"I've seen the prince!" Mo Ziyu's mouth slightly hooked up a faint smile, and only after saluting did he say faintly, "First, the concubine wanted to teach her a lesson, but she never thought of killing her. The first emperor's favorite concubine Zhao was expelled from the palace by the first emperor because she killed a palace maid, the first emperor was extremely merciful to the Buddha, His Majesty was influenced by the first emperor, and never treated his subordinates harshly, but also let the people around him be more generous and benevolent to his subordinates, how dare the concubine kill people at will?"

After a pause, Mo Ziyu's voice was slightly sharper, and he continued: "But the last time the princess was there, the concubine remembered that the prince said that the reward and punishment should be clear, she made an unforgivable mistake, and naturally she should be punished, and the concubine didn't feel that she had done anything wrong?"

Zhao Xu's face was slightly pale, and there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes: "How do you know these things?"

"When the concubine was still a slave in the palace, she could feel that the princess was generous and kind, and later she often went to the princess to say goodbye, and she heard a lot of the princess's teachings, and she didn't dare to forget it in her heart. Mo Ziyu lowered his eyes and said.

"Let's talk about it, what's going on?" Zhao Xu sat down on a chair under the tree, picked up the tea on the side and took a sip.

Mo Ziyu had just taken a sip of this cup of tea, she wanted to remind her, but she couldn't speak, so she had to pretend that she didn't see it, swallowed her words, glanced at Mama Shen, and asked her to tell the whole story.

Mama Shen said Fang Cai's words as they were, and there were people in the courtyard to testify, under Zhao Xu's sharp gaze, Bao's second daughter-in-law didn't dare to quibble, and shrank on the ground trembling.

"The concubine just wants to teach her some lessons, so that she doesn't steal anymore, but the prince thinks that the concubine has gone too far?" Mo Ziyu asked lightly.

"No matter what the birth of the Seventh Lady is, she is now the Seventh Lady of the Qi Palace, that is the master of this Qiushui Garden, since you have never regarded her as the master, then there is no need for this Qiushui Garden to stay. Zhao Xu said lightly, "Qingyue, drag it down, thirty boards, two roads, either sell it or go to the miscellaneous courtyard." ”

"The slave and maid know that they are wrong, the slave and the maid don't dare anymore, ask the prince to be gracious, the prince is gracious!" Bao's second daughter-in-law turned pale with fright, this fell into Qing Yue's hands, it was not as good as being beaten by a few women in the courtyard, not only half a life left. She has been serving in the inner courtyard all these years, and she can still suffer from the rough work of chopping wood and pouring toilets in the miscellaneous courtyard, doesn't this make her have no way to live!

Zhao Xu has always said the same, Qing Yue waved his hand, and two powerful guards came in and dragged Bao's second daughter-in-law out, Qing Yue hugged his fists and said: "The scene is too bloody, I'm afraid of scaring the girls, so I'll go outside to execute!"

After a while, the heart-rending screams of Bao's second daughter-in-law came through, making the other maids in the courtyard tremble when they heard it, this bloody example is placed in front of them, and this inconspicuous girl can no longer be ignored.

Mama Shen breathed a sigh of relief, presumably she had made the right bet.

"Lord, sit in the room. Mo Ziyu looked at the big guys and felt uncomfortable, so he couldn't bear it, so he invited Zhao Xu to the house and let them disperse.

The rich aroma in the room made Zhao Xu frown, and Mo Ziyu noticed it, extinguished the spices lit in the incense burner, and opened the window to ventilate.

At this time, Lu Qiao came up with a cup of hot tea, Mo Ziyu took it and handed it to Zhao Xu's hand, and said, "Why did the prince think of Qiushui Garden today?"

"Today afternoon, I taught Shizi to practice boxing, and he said that you sent a porridge today, and he liked it very much. Zhao Xu picked up the teacup and scratched the teacup, and took a sip, "This is old tea, some years, right?"

"It should be the year before last Longjing, a little damp, only yesterday let the red silk dry, in the end is the Jiangnan tea, although it is aged, in the end it can still be barely entered. Mo Ziyu said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "The concubine was born hard, and she can't eat tea, but she doesn't have good tea to entertain the prince, so she can't go in her heart." ”

"When this king marched and fought, he also suffered a lot, and he was not so squeamish. Zhao Xu put down the teacup, "That day I said that I wanted to come to you to sit here, but I didn't think that something would be delayed, and I didn't have time until today." How's your recovery going?"

"The prince's white jade ointment has a miraculous effect, but after touching it for a few days, the wound has healed and there is a lot of blood, and the concubine is estimated to not even leave a wound when she touches it!"

"That's fine, don't be stupid in the future. Zhao Xu said, "Don't stand, you can sit down too." ”

The woman in front of her was plainly dressed, her eyebrows were delicate, her demeanor was respectful but not humble, and it was difficult to associate with the woman with heavy makeup, and there were other eyebrows that were somewhat similar to her.

Unconsciously, Zhao Xu was in a daze, as if he was immersed in the past.

"Lord ......"

Zhao Xu came back to his senses, changed his posture and said: "You saved the prince once in the garden before, and the prince likes you very much, if you have nothing to do, you can go and see him more, the child looks well-behaved, but his mind is heavy, if you can make him happy, it will be of great benefit to his body." ”

"Yes. Mo Ziyu nodded, his eyes rolled slightly, "Last time, Zi Shizi was almost injured, and the prince should also know that it was not an accident, I don't know what will happen to this matter in the future?"

Zhao Xu's face sank: "You should know, you will know, you shouldn't know, don't ask." ”

"The concubine has trespassed, and the prince forgives the sin. Mo Ziyu stood up and saluted.

At this time, Hongxuan entered with a plate of pastries and reported: "Lord, girl, Mama Kong knows that the prince is coming, waiting outside, and wants to say hello to the prince!"

"Why did she come to you?" Zhao Xu sat crookedly and took a piece of pastry and tasted it, appreciating, "The taste is very refreshing, more delicious than the cook from Jiangnan in the courtyard of the second lady, I can't imagine that you have a dragon and a crouching tiger in this yard!"

Lu Qiao chuckled and said: "This pastry was made by the girl herself, and it was also a coincidence that the prince came, and the girl just happened to be interested in this afternoon!"

"Let Mama Kong come in. Mo Ziyu commanded.

King Qi attaches great importance to feelings, this Mama Kong is a person who came out of the palace, an old man who came out of the concubine's side, even if he looks at his mother's face, he will not be ruthless.

If he hadn't wanted to take the opportunity to rectify the atmosphere in the palace and make an example of him, I am afraid that this Mama Kong would not have been punished so severely, which is why Mo Ziyu has always connived at Mama Kong to recuperate in Qiushui Garden, and did not go to compete with her.

Mama Kong hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted, crying: "The old slave can be regarded as seeing the prince, the old slave has asked the prince to say goodbye! The old slave did something wrong, and the old slave's uncompetitive son also committed the prince's taboo, and the prince can still let the old slave stay in the palace, which is really a great kindness, the old slave is grateful, and he will be a cow and a horse in the next life, and he will repay the prince!"

Mama Kong said with tears in her eyes, but Lu Qiao laughed out loud.

Mo Ziyu said with a straight face: "Green pretty, don't be rude!"

Lu Qiao explained aggrievedly: "The slave maid didn't mean it, the slave maid really couldn't help it! Mama Kong was so injured that she couldn't get out of bed this afternoon, and she had to be brought to her mouth when she ate, and now the prince came, her injury suddenly healed, and I think it was better to take a ginseng as a reward from the princess, and it had a miraculous effect!"

Mama Kong's face stiffened slightly, and the old tears didn't dare to flow, after all, the screams of Bao's second daughter-in-law stopped, and she said hesitantly: "At the beginning, the old slave was confused, and I couldn't live with the girl, the second lady asked the old slave to come to Qiushui Garden to serve the girl for forgiveness, and the girl was kind, not only did not blame the old slave, but also rewarded the old slave with ginseng to make up for her body......"

"Since you know your mistake, then you will serve honestly in Qiushui Garden, since you just said that the Seventh Lady is kind-hearted, presumably she will not treat you badly. Zhao Xu's tone was light, but with irrefutable majesty, "If you dare to rely on the old and sell the old with the identity of the old man, and make waves, this king will never spare it!"

"The old slave remembers the words of the prince, and the old slave will definitely serve the girl well in the future!" Mama Kong said hurriedly, and then retreated in a gloomy manner.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but glance at Lu Qiao more, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that you maid is very sharp-toothed!"

"It's a sharp-toothed person, and it's because the concubine is usually too used to her that makes him lawless!"

"I think it's because you haven't restrained their temperament on weekdays. Zhao Xu got up and said, "It's not too early, this king still has important business, you should rest early." ”

After the words fell, Zhao Xu turned around and left.

Lu Qiao was so anxious that she stomped her feet and complained: "It's not easy for the prince to come to Qiushui Garden, why don't you want to leave the prince behind?"

Mo Ziyu himself looked indifferent, and said with a light smile: "Now is not the time. ”

Hongxuan chuckled and said, "The prince has already left, and it's useless for you to be in a hurry." Lu Qiao, I didn't expect you to be so bold and dare to squeeze Mama Kong in front of the prince, and Mama Kong's face is really funny!"

She rolled her eyes and chuckled again: "The prince has a good impression of you!"

No matter how stupid Lu Qiao was, she heard the sound of the red silk, her face turned cold, she hurriedly glanced at Mo Ziyu, and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense!"

The Seventh Lady turned out to be a maid, and since she was a maid and could be the master, then other people could too.

Lu Qiao explained uneasily: "I just can't get used to Mama Kong's approach, and I don't mean anything else!"
