080 The prince likes her?
Lu Nianjin heard Xiao Xun say this, and for some reason, he suddenly thought of the last time Jiang Rongyue came to the door, he inexplicably sent a lot of precious medicinal materials.
Could it be that she wanted to blow the pillow wind to Xiao Xun through her, so that Xiao Xun would stand on her side and push Princess Huyang out?
Xiao Xun saw Lu Nianjin's thoughtful expression, and knew that she also thought of Jiang Rongyue's visit, patted her hand gently, and said, "Father and Lu Guifei are such a pearl in the palm of Huyang, even if she is rude and willful, and she does not repent, the two of them will not abandon her, if you don't want to provoke fire and be hated by your father and the Lu family, it is best not to be biased towards Jiang Rongyue at that time." β
"I understand what the prince means." Lu Nianjin nodded and agreed, she had taken some care of Jiang Rongyue before, originally for the sake of Xiao Xun and the queen's face, but now the queen's side has been cold because of Ji'er's poisoning, and Xiao Xun doesn't want her to participate in this matter, so she naturally won't do anything more.
After talking about the relationship, Xiao Xun held her hand, pondered for a moment, and said, "By the way, there is one more thing, this palace has been busy these days, and I have forgotten to tell you......"
"What's the matter?" Lu Nianjin sniffed lightly and wanted to withdraw his hand, but Xiao Xun didn't let go, but instead held her tighter, frowned slightly, and said, "It's about Meng Qingting and Wisteria Mansion." β
"What's wrong with Wisteria Mansion?" As soon as Lu Nianjin heard that it was related to Wisteria Mansion, he immediately asked urgently.
Xiao Xun saw that she had guessed correctly, she was really interested in Wisteria Mansion, so she lowered her voice and told her about Meng Qingting's Wisteria Mansion Restaurant eating dead people after she left the capital.
Speaking of Meng Qingting's assertion that Xiao Liugongzi died of pepper allergy, Lu Nianjin nodded and said, "This symptom is indeed pepper allergy." β
Xiao Xun said "um", and then said, "This palace remembered her childhood affection, so I allowed her to settle the matter. Later, the Jinyang Palace's face looked at the palace, and Xiao Ke, the grandson of the palace, interceded, and the matter did not make a big deal in the end, Xiao Ze and Meng Qingting escaped, but they also paid the price, and within a few days, they obediently sent the house deed and title deed of the Wisteria Mansion to the Jinyang Palace. β
"The dead Xiao Liugongzi was only a teenager and had not yet started a family, so the prince of Jin handed over the Wisteria Mansion to Xiao Ke to take care of. And Xiao Ke's subordinates didn't make a restaurant, so he asked here in the palace, but he wanted to join hands with him, and then he would share fifty-fifty. β
Lu Nianjin had plans to buy it back as early as when Wisteria Mansion opened, and now Xiao Ke's proposal was undoubtedly like a pie falling from the sky, smashing on her head.
"Yes!" She looked at Xiao Xun with bright eyes, "It's really a waste to let Meng Qingting do a restaurant like Wisteria Mansion, it's better to let me come." β
"Then the palace will let people go back to Xiao Ke tomorrow." Xiao Xun said.
Lu Nianjin pursed his lips and did not respond immediately.
Xiao asked, "What's wrong, isn't it right?" β
Lu Nianjin laughed dryly, a little embarrassed, "That's the case, prince...... I want to buy that Wisteria Restaurant. β
When Xiao Xun heard this, he laughed, "You like that restaurant so much?" β
"Well," Lu Nianjin nodded, "I like it very much." β
"Hongu knows." Xiao Xun raised his hand and rubbed it in her heart, "I'll help you buy it back another day." β
"Huh? The prince is so sure that Xiao Siqing is willing to sell? β
Xiao Ke, the official residence is too often Siqing, ordinary people will respectfully call Xiao Siqing when they see it, when Lu Nianjin married the "first prince" at the beginning, he was the one who went to the Chengguo Mansion to greet his relatives.
"Xiao Ke has an excellent personal relationship with this palace." Xiao Xun explained lightly, "If this palace speaks, he will not refuse nine times out of ten." β
Lu Nianjin nodded, "But I can't treat others badly, tomorrow I will take the time to make a few pills and return the pill, and I will take it as a thank you gift." β
This Xiao Xun did not refuse, Xiao Ke is his brother, and he naturally hopes that the other party will live a long life.
"Also," Lu Nianjin paused for a moment, and then said, "I want to choose the person who is the shopkeeper of the restaurant." β
When Xiao Xun heard this, he suddenly narrowed his eyes dangerously, "What do you mean, do you trust this palace?" β
"The prince misunderstood, I didn't mean that," Lu Nianjin was afraid that he would regret it in anger, so he didn't help her buy Wisteria Mansion, and hurriedly explained, "I just want to find a female shopkeeper who can cooperate with me tacitly and can enter the back house...... Wouldn't that work too? β
Xiao Xun heard that she was not guarding herself, and her face looked better, "Your restaurant, you are in charge." β
Lu Nianjin bent his eyebrows and thanked him happily.
Xiao Xun coughed lightly, looked at the sky outside, and said, "It's not early, we should also be settled." β
"What's the matter, it's still bright outside!" Lu Nianjin retorted.
Xiao Xun didn't give her a chance to refuse, and directly picked her up and walked towards the inner room.
"Tai, Prince!" Lu Nianjin subconsciously hugged his neck and exclaimed, "Don't, Ji'er is about to wake up, he is hungry and wants to find me." β
"It's okay," Xiao Xun glanced down at her, "When the palace came back from the palace today, he specially asked for an imperial chef who is good at boiling milk from the imperial dining room, and in the future, he will let the nurse drink milk for him at night." β
Lu Nianjin was stunned, can he still operate like this?
But after relieving herself, she figured out his intentions again, blushed, pinched his neck fiercely, and said angrily, "Xiao Xun, he is your son, my son!" β
Xiao Xun put her on the bed and glanced at her coldly, "If he wasn't Bengong's own son, do you think he would be able to live until now?!" β
Lu Nianjin is crazy, is that what she meant? Is her point here?
What she meant was clear, "If you don't let your son drink breast milk for your own selfish desires, but only give him milk, is your conscience okay?" β
When Xiao Xun heard this, he looked down at her, his pupils were deep, and he said seriously, "It's okay!" β
"You!" Lu Nianjin wanted to condemn him again, trying in vain to escape from his clutches, but before he could speak, he was gagged.
β¦β¦
Half an hour later, the two came back from the bath, and Lu Nianjin got into the quilt and sulked.
After Xiao Xun got into bed, he scooped her into his arms with the quilt, and whispered in her ear, "Jin'er, when I was with you just now, this palace always felt that there were some pictures and postures that were familiar, you say, could this be the memory of our previous life?" β
Past!
These two words crashed into Lu Nianjin's ears, and she only felt as if her heart had been hit by something.
Yes, Meng Qingting was reborn and could copy so many things from her, which proves that she had her in her previous life. She hates her so much, does that mean that she was also married to Xiao Xun in her previous life, and she had a good relationship with Xiao Xun?
Thinking of these unknown things, her heart instantly became chaotic, so that she didn't even hear what Xiao Xun said in her ear later.
That night, she stayed up until a long time before she slept.
On the second day, Xiao Xun had already entered the palace as usual, and she stared at two big dark circles under her eyes and got up from the bed.
When Yun Jiang came in to serve, she looked at the crow green in her eyes, but she looked narrow, and said with great joy, "The prince really loves the princess." β
Lu Nianjin sat in front of the makeup mirror table, with a loveless face, "Miss Yunjiang, you may not believe it, your master and I really just had insomnia last night," It's not an overnight battle!"
Yun Jiang pursed her lips and smiled, "The slave and maid naturally believe in the girl, even if the girl says that today's sun is coming out of the west, the slave and maid also believe it." β
Get! It's better not to explain it! Lu Nianjin thought.
After freshening up, on the west side, the Yu family also came over with Ji'er.
Lu Nianjin took Ji'er over and hugged him, poked his tender face to play, and asked, "How did the little prince eat last night?" β
Yu knew that Lu Nianjin was asking about milk, and immediately replied with a smile, "Back to the crown princess, that Zhang Imperial Chef is worthy of being from the palace, and his skills are excellent, he boiled the milk without a trace of smell, and added almonds and a small amount of nectar, and the little county king was very happy to eat." β
Lu Nianjin was relieved when she heard that Ji'er did not reject milk, and then she recalled her grandfather's method of boiling milk in modern times, and then said to Yu, "I also have a few recipes for boiling milk here, I will write to you when I go back, you give it to Zhang Yuchu for me, let him cook a few more barrels every day, if the house is not used up, you can also take it to the good hall, and give alms to the old people and abandoned babies in the good hall." β
"Yes, Crown Princess." Yu said softly.
Seeing that Lu Nianjin was a little tired, she reached out and took Ji'er again.
It just so happened that at this time, breakfast outside was also ready, and after Lu Nianjin handed Ji'er back to the Yu family, he took Yun Jiang's hand and went to the hall.
The breakfast was made by Aunt Wu, her cooking skills were much better than the previous Mama Qin, and Lu Nianjin was always very satisfied.
But today, as soon as the rouge rice porridge was eaten, Lu Nianjin's brows furrowed fiercely, and she almost exhausted her whole body's patience, so she didn't squirt out, but beckoned the maidservant to come over with a spittoon and spit it in the spittoon.
Yun Jiang waited for her and rinsed her mouth again, then looked at her and asked suspiciously, "Girl, but today's porridge is not appetizing?" β
"Taste it for yourself." Lu Nianjin glanced at the rouge rice porridge on the table, his eyebrows were still wrinkled.
Yun Jiang half-convinced took the porridge bowl that Lu Nianjin had only eaten one bite of, scooped a little with a spoon, and gently sipped it.
"Aunt Wu, this is killing the salt seller!" She put down the porridge bowl in her hand with an unkind expression and reprimanded.
Lu Nianjin waved her hand, signaling her to be calm for a while, and then turned to Ah Yuan and said, "Ah Yuan, you go and call Aunt Wu over, just say that I have something to ask her." β
"Yes, Crown Princess!" Ah Yuan received the order, bowed with a blessing, and retreated outside.
Yun Jiang couldn't suppress her temper, and continued beside Lu Nianjin, "Girl, the slave maid looks at Aunt Wu and has no rules, that is, you are kind, and you are willing to give her a chance to justify, if this matter was left on the master next to the palace, she would have been dragged out and beaten to death!" β
Lu Nianjin sighed, "Let's wait for Aunt Wu to come over and see what she has to say first." β
When Mama Lin was in trouble in Wuxi Star Picking Tower, it was Aunt Wu who quickly supported her, otherwise, it would be difficult to say whether she and Ji'er were in this world now.
Now Aunt Wu just accidentally put an extra handful of salt in the porridge, how could she kill her!
Ah Yuan ran fast, and it didn't take long for Aunt Wu to walk in from outside, but her face was worried.
After seeing Lu Nianjin, she didn't say anything, and knelt directly at her feet.
"Auntie, what are you doing?" Lu Nianjin asked suspiciously.
After the words fell, she looked at Ah Yuan again, and Ah Yuan shook her head at her, indicating that she did not tell Aunt Wu about the things in the house.
After Aunt Wu asked Lu Nianjin, her expression changed for a while before she spoke, "The slave is guilty, and the crime is unforgivable, so I have come to ask the princess for her guilt." β
Lu Nianjin's eyes were even more suspicious, "What the hell is my aunt talking about, where are you guilty?" β
Aunt Wu raised her head, tears were already pouring out of her eyes, a touch of despair floated on her face, and she slowly took out an oiled paper bag from her sleeve, held it in her hand and said, "Back to the princess, someone gave this to the slave and maid yesterday, and threatened the slave and maid with the life of the slave and maid's former little master, and poisoned the princess." β
"Someone threatened you to poison me?!" Lu Nianjin was shocked when she heard this, her face changed and she asked, "Do you know who the person who brought you the message is?" β
Aunt Wu shook her head, "The slave doesn't know, that person put the poison and the letter under the slave's pillow. β
"That's not sure, it's not from the house...... Lu Nianjin whispered softly, "This person, if the people outside the house are okay, there is still a little room for the affairs of your little master, if it is a person from the house, then ......" That child is more than lucky.
Aunt Wu didn't understand this truth.
She is a kind-hearted person, she wanted to save the little master in the past, but now she can't hurt the master, she tosses and turns all night, and she only thinks of a frank way.
If the previous little master really died because of her decision, then she ...... That's it, give him his life.
She thought sadly.
And Lu Nianjin, who was opposite her, was pondering, she was wondering if there was a way to have both worlds in this matter.
After a long time, she gently knocked her eyelids and said to Aunt Wu, "Auntie get up first", after the words fell, she looked at Yun Jiang again, "The maids in the house, all of them have given gag orders, and they will say to the outside world that I have been poisoned and unconscious." In addition, let people enter the palace to inform the prince and ask him to bring Zhang Jiu back privately. β
"Yes, girl!" Yun Jiang agreed in a deep voice, and then went to make arrangements.
After she left, Lu Nianjin took the poison in Aunt Wu's hand and checked it, and made sure that it was not the medicine that died immediately, she breathed a sigh of relief, at least it could be delayed for a while.
Inside the palace.
Xiao Xun heard Cai Hu's report on Lu Nianjin's poisoning, and immediately put down his official duties and rushed back from the political hall.
He rode his horse all the way and returned to the National Teacher's Mansion in less than half an hour.
Luo Shenyuan, he entered the inner room with a blue face, and when he saw Lu Nianjin, who was safe and sound, his complexion changed suddenly, staring at her, word by word, and asked angrily, "You lied to this palace?" β
Lu Nianjin didn't expect Xiao Xun to have such a big reaction at all, she was stunned for a moment, and then apologized weakly, "I'm sorry." β
"......" Xiao Xun glanced at her coldly, and without saying a word, he was about to leave.
Lu Nianjin was frightened by his angry appearance, and hurriedly chased after him and said, "Prince, don't be in a hurry to leave, I still have something to tell you." β
"Let it go!" Xiao Xun didn't reply, and the cold reprimand, the tone was alienated and angry that Lu Nianjin had never heard before, and it was even more indifferent and terrifying than when she first saw him in the Great Ci'en Temple.
"No, I won't let it go!" Lu Nianjin knew that this release was far away, so she was in a hurry, so she simply stepped forward and hugged his waist tightly.
Xiao Xun was hugged by her like this, the anger in his heart dropped by half in an instant, his complexion was slightly softened, but his tone was still like quenching ice, "What else do you want?" β
Lu Nianjin hugged him tighter and told him as quickly as possible that someone had threatened Aunt Wu.
After Xiao Xun listened, his anger dropped by half, but he didn't show it, but broke Lu Nianjin's hand holding him one finger at a time, turned his back to her and said, "This palace knows!" β
After saying that, he continued to walk outside.
Lu Nianjin watched him stride away, his back disappearing little by little, and let out a long sigh. Thinking about it again, Xiao Xun, why was he so angry just now?
Thinking like this, she asked in a low voice.
Yun Jiang, who had been standing next to the screen, sighed helplessly when she heard this, stepped forward to help her sit down and said, "Naturally, it's because the prince is happy with the princess, and I'm worried about you, the princess!" β
Lu Nianjin listened to Yun Jiang's words, and his whole person froze.
She looked incredulous.
Xiao Xun likes her? How is this possible!
Isn't it a relationship between them as collaborators?
She gave her medical skills and cooking skills to save people for him and cook for him, while he kept her safe.
As for Ji'er, it was purely an accident, an embarrassing accident.
He wanted her to stay, just because he needed a crown princess, and his eldest son needed a biological mother.
As for the love of love, it is impossible! When pigs fly! With his thousand-year-old appearance of Xuanbing, he grew up in the temple since he was a child, and he abstained from love and sex, how could he have this tendon? !
And she is obsessed with cooking and is busy with medical skills, of course, she doesn't have this tendon!
β¦β¦
Lu Nianjin comforted himself for a long time before he gradually calmed down.
Yun Jiang always stood by her side, and after she calmed down, she mentioned her again, "If the girl really doesn't believe it, you can also ask the prince, the prince must be interested in you!" Unlike other princes, the concubine is just a marriage and has no feelings. β
"YouβDon't talk nonsense!" Lu Nianjin's eyes floated, stumbling, and interrupted her uncomfortably.
"If this is not the case, then why does the prince never accept a concubine, nor set up a side concubine or wife, even if you fled for nearly a year before, the prince has never touched a hair of another woman?" Yun Jiang asked in a low voice.
"This ......" Lu Nianjin stopped for a while, and then he was speechless, and retorted indiscriminately, "You don't follow him twelve hours a day, how do you know that he hasn't touched a hair of another woman, in case, he is out shopping in the Qinglou?" In case of...... He likes men as well as me! β
As she spoke, she tried to find evidence to support her words, "Otherwise, how could there be no young maid in a huge national teacher's mansion before I came?" β
Yun Jiang had nothing to say in the face of his master's self-deception, "Girl, if you think so and can be happy, then you can think so." β
Lu Nianjin: "...... Forget it, I don't want to, you go make my bed, I'll go get some sleep. She waved her hand irritably.
Yun Jiang blessed, and went to make the bed.
After making the bed, she returned to Lu Nianjin, and before she could speak, Lu Nianjin couldn't wait to rush towards the bed.
Yun Jiang: "......" Why does her master pounce on the bed like an ostrich!
And the land ostrich, at this time, has completely buried itself in the bedding.
On the other side, the study.
After Xiao Xun was angry, he made a gloomy face and asked the ministers to call Aunt Wu to the study.
This is the first time that Aunt Wu has come to the study in the front yard, after she entered, she was almost out of breath by the coercion released by Xiao Xun's body, knelt on the ground, and muttered for a long time before she made a sound, "The slave maid Wu has seen the prince, the prince Chitose Chitose Chitose!" β
"Get up and speak." Xiao Xun glanced at her coldly, and ordered in a cold voice, "Say what you said to the crown princess before." β
"Yes, Prince!" Aunt Wu agreed, took a slight breath, and then began to say, "The slave maid is on duty in the kitchen on weekdays, and only the queen and the queen will stay in the room every day, last night, as usual, the slave maid packed up the things in the kitchen before the hour, locked it, and went back to the room." β
"After washing up and going to sleep, for some reason, the slave always felt panicked under her head. Unable to sleep soundly, the slave got up and removed the pillow and futon, only to find an oil-paper bag, a letter, and a jade pendant underneath. β
"The jade pendant is the former master of the slave maid in Wuxi, there is a scratch on it, which was accidentally dropped by the little master, and the slave and maid remember it very clearly. It was also after seeing this jade pendant that the slave's heart suddenly panicked, and she always felt that it was not a good sign. β
Sure enough, the letter said that the little master of the slave was in a hidden place. If the slave wants the little master to live safely, she must give the poison in the oil paper bag to the crown princess. On another day, the news of the death of the crown princess came out, and the little master of the slave and maid was born, otherwise, the little master of the slave and maid would have only a dead end. β
Aunt Wu Xu was trying to alleviate the fear in her heart, she spoke very slowly, recalled very carefully, and said every detail.
After Xiao Xun listened, it didn't take long for Cai Hun to push the door and walk in, and he presented all the jade pendants, poisons, and letters he had collected as evidence.
Xiao Xun glanced at it, he didn't know the poison, but the pen and ink on the jade pendant and the letter were the most ordinary oil smoke ink, and almost every scholar in the capital used this kind of ink.
couldn't see the origin of these three things, his face was a little gloomy, his eyelids were raised, he looked at Aunt Wu who was kneeling on the ground, and coldly ordered Cai Hun to "Drag it out, hit thirty boards, and then put it in the dungeon!" β
"Yes, Prince!" Cai Hun agreed, he turned around and walked to Aunt Wu's side, and put on a gesture of please, "Let's go!" β
Aunt Wu slowly got up from the ground, and before leaving, she thanked Xiao Xun again.
She knew in her heart that the prince beat her thirty boards, not to punish her, but to protect her little master. Only by convincing the people behind the scenes that something really happened to the crown princess will her little master be safe!
