Chapter 175: The Betrayal of the Most Trusted Man
Before Xi Shuang unlocked the seal of the Chosen Daughter, for her safety, all the insiders about the Chosen Daughter were tight-lipped, and even Xi Yue and Xiao Yu didn't know.
Master Qingyuan gave Xi Shuang three more days, and Xi Shuang secretly quickened his pace, seizing the time to find out the inner ghosts and people who were about to move in the deep palace.
Xi Shuang was thinking about how to lure the snake out of the hole and hit it seven inches more, causing a long delay on the road. As soon as she entered the front yard of the queen's bedroom, she saw Xiao Yu standing at the door with the neatly dressed Xi Yue, who seemed to be waiting for her in a hurry. Xi Shuang hurriedly took three steps and made two steps, stepped forward to help Xi Yue, and slowly helped her into the inner room.
"Sister Yue, why are you up?! Your body is not well yet, and it is windy outside. Xi Shuang said with concern.
"Okay, don't worry, don't get in the way, I'm almost fine." Xi Yue casually retreated from the others, and everyone left consciously. They all know that the queen mother and Anping County mainly talk about private words, and they don't like others to be on their side, and the county lord of Anping is not formal, and the queen mother doesn't want others to see jokes, so every time the county lord of Anping comes, they will be dismissed. However, they were all very happy to be able to take the opportunity to be lazy, but another person, after all, was a little reluctant to go, but because of the majesty of the queen and the county lord, they had to go.
It's just that today, Xi Yue seems to be more cautious than before, and her mood seems to be very low.
"Sister Yue, look at the way you look today...... Is there any movement? Xi Shuang asked.
I saw Xi Yue nodded, Xiao Yu took out a purse with a burned corner from his sleeve, handed it to Xi Shuang, Xi Shuang took it, opened it and sniffed it, and frowned.
"Musk!" Xi Shuang looked at Xi Yue, only to see her nodding sadly.
Xi Yue looked at Xiao Yu and motioned for her to speak for herself, Xiao Yu understood, lowered her voice, and told the ins and outs.
"This is what I accidentally picked up from Aunt Luwu's burnt clothes. Last night, Aunt Luwu said that she had a headache, so I asked her to serve her all night, at that time Niangniang and I were not suspicious, who knew that in the middle of the night when I woke up to relieve my hands, but vaguely saw the fire, only to find that Aunt Luwu seemed to be burning something. ”
"Green?" Xi Shuang looked at Xi Yue thoughtfully, she finally knew why Sister Yue had a sad expression, it turned out that the inner ghost was by Sister Yue's side, and she was still the person she trusted the most. Lu Wu has followed Xi Yue since she was a child, Xi Yue thought that she would be the most trustworthy person in this deep palace, but she didn't expect that she used her trust to hurt her and hurt her children.
"Xiao Yu, did you find anything else?" Xi Shuang turned to Xiao Yu and asked. She didn't believe that Lu Wu and Sister Yue had any deep hatred, and someone must have instructed her behind it.
"I saw from a distance that there seemed to be a few letters in the pile of things she burned, but when she left, I looked closer, and those letters had long since turned to ashes, and I only vaguely saw a cold word." Xiao Yu thought back and said.
"Cold ...... Is it related to the cold palace? Xi Shuang was startled, looked at Xi Yue and said.
"I think maybe Feng Huanshi and Xin Guifei can't sit still." Xi Yue said, "As early as when I was seven months pregnant, the imperial doctor diagnosed that it was a male fetus, but except for me and the imperial doctor, only the emperor and Lu Wu knew. ”
"Good abacus, at that time we all thought that my sister was frightened and born prematurely, but now that I think about it, it turns out that it is all a bureau!" Xi Shuang clenched his fists tightly.
Seeing that Xi Yue was a little sad, Xi Shuang quickly shook her hand and said, "Sister, since Luwu has rebelled, she is no longer our person, and she will ...... in the future."
"At your disposal." Xi Yue said these four words with difficulty. She and Luwu grew up together, when Xi Shuang entered the Xi Mansion, in order to cover up the fact that Xi Shuang was not his own, Xi's father dismissed almost all the servants in the house, and only Uncle Liu stayed. Originally, Luwu was also going to be sent away, but it was Xi Yue's bitter pleading that allowed Luwu to stay, she has always regarded Luwu as a relative and a sister, but she didn't want her to stab herself in the back.
"Sister, I need your cooperation." Xi Shuang said.
"What am I going to do?" Xi Yue raised her spirits, after all, this matter involved Feng Huanyu and her children, and she must not drop the chain.
In the past two days, my sister still treated Luwu as before, pretending to trust her very much. Tomorrow, look forward to my good show! Xi Shuang blinked, and Xi Yue nodded slightly.
"Aunt Green! Aunt Green! Xi Shuang shouted loudly.
I saw that Lu Wu hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, Xi Shuang just pulled Xiao Yu and ran out, pretending to bump into her.
I saw Lu Wu stumbling, hurriedly bowed his head and saluted, and said respectfully: "Anping County Lord An." ”
"I'm sorry Aunt Green, I didn't mean to." Xi Shuang pretended to be innocent, and lifted the green Wu weakly, but her eyes were staring at the green Wu like an eagle, grabbing the panic that flashed in her eyes.
"It was the slave who was clumsy and bumped into the county lord, and asked the county lord to forgive her sins." Lu Wu said with his head still down.
"Alright! I don't blame you! I'm going out of the palace with Xiao Yu to play, you take care of Sister Yue and the princess! Before Xi Shuang's words fell, he pulled Xiao Yu and ran out.
Seeing that they had run away, Lu Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and then went in to serve Xi Yue.
It is said that Xiao Yu and Xi Shuang ran out, did not run far, but hid in the dark to observe, and saw Lu Wu walking in, so they walked towards Feng Yingxuan and Feng Xichen's residence.
"Qingluo, what are you holding back from the bad water?" Xiao Yu knew that Xi Shuang must have some strategy, otherwise why would he drag her all the way around!
Xi Shuang smiled at Xiao Yu slyly and said, "You'll know tomorrow!" I need you to stay with me, though......"
Xi Shuang and Xiao Yu whispered, only to see Xiao Yu listen to it, and gave a thumbs up in admiration.
Following.
Early in the morning, Xi Shuang ran to Xi Yue's bedroom in a panic.
"County Lord's Mother, the Queen Mother hasn't gotten up yet, you better wait for a while!"
"No, I want to go in, I'm in a hurry!"
"County lord Niangniang, don't embarrass the minions, the emperor is still inside! It's not appropriate for you to go in at this time! ”
The palace maids and eunuchs outside the door blocked Xi Shuang's way to death, although it was said that doing so would offend the county lord, but it was better than offending the emperor inside!
If they let the county lord go in and disturb the emperor's good deeds, the emperor will definitely be angry with them, and when the time comes, it will be good if the head is not guaranteed, and if they don't get it right, they will punish the nine clans!
Xi Yue heard the commotion outside, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and pushed Feng Huanyu beside her, the two looked at each other, and they both knew that Xi Shuang's play was the beginning of the gong.
"Luwu, you go and invite the county lord of Anping to the side hall, wait a while!" Feng Huanyu said majestically, but his face seemed to be a little displeased.
The green turnip responded, hurry up and please.
"County lord Niangniang, the emperor asks you to wait in the side hall first."
"What a partial hall, I'm going to find Sister Yue, 100,000 urgent!" Xi Shuang took advantage of the greenery to open the door, slipped in like a loach, and ran straight to the inner room.
"The county lord can't! Cannot! Lu Wu was busy chasing Xi Shuang, but she was naturally not as strong as Xi Shuang's feet.
As soon as she chased to the door of the inner room, she stopped, only listening to Xi Shuang's mention of the "cold palace". Lu Wu was startled, and was about to leave, but now he was secretly lying at the door, intending to hear clearly.
I only heard Xi Shuang say excitedly: "Sister Yue, what I said is true!" My dreams are really accurate! ”
I heard Feng Huanyu say again: "Don't worry, speak slowly." ”
Lu Wu was terrified, so it seems that the emperor would rather believe it than believe it? !
She heard it clearly just now, and the county lord of Anping told the emperor that she dreamed that the crazy woman in the cold palace broke Xiao Xuan's neck, and asked the emperor to deal with the one in the cold palace, and Lu Wu couldn't let this happen.
After hearing Feng Huanyu's word "quasi", Lu Wu hurriedly went back to the room to write a letter, changed his clothes again, put on a cloak, and sneaked into the cold palace.
Of course, before her carrier pigeon could fly far, she was caught by Xiao Yu.
"Qingluo, you really guessed it!" Xiao Yu carried the cage containing the carrier pigeon in one hand, and handed the letter to Xi Shuang's hand in the other.
Xi Shuang looked at it, gritted his teeth and said: "As I expected, this green man is still an ungrateful villain!" However, I don't know why she rebelled, Sister Yue was so good to her. ”
"No matter why she defected, our top priority now is to find out who is behind her." Xiao Yu said that she also felt very disdainful of Luwu in her heart. If she turns into her, she will not betray Xi Shuang no matter what. Once she Xiao Yu identified someone, even if it cost her life, she was willing.
"Xiao Yu, you copied my handwriting before, and now you copy this green handwriting, no problem, right?"
"That's nature! Leave it to me! Xiao Yu patted his chest and reassured. Since she was with Xi Shuang, she was no longer the Xiao Yu who didn't know a few big words, cowered in doing things, and had no self-confidence.
"You do things, I don't worry! When you're done, release that portion! I'm going to get some sleep and move at night. Xi Shuang yawned, stretched, and said lazily.
"Okay, okay, you go and rest, leave it to me!" Xiao Yu smiled, and he was not surprised by Xi Shuang's appearance. Xi Shuang's favorite thing has always been food, followed by sleeping. In the past, even in the Prince's Mansion, she slept until she woke up naturally, otherwise, she would have lost her temper, and even His Royal Highness the Prince couldn't parry, and the only one who could parry was His Royal Highness King Qing!
Xiao Yu smiled, watched Xi Shuang leave, and turned around to do things properly.
