238. 238 A hand that comes out from behind
Mu Jiuxiao? It's really him!
Why is he here? Why do you go in the direction of the valley?
She suddenly remembered a detail, that day Granny Nine called the man in black "adult", could it be that this qiē was arranged by Mu Jiuxiao?
No, how is that possible? That day, he was so ruthless to banish her to the snowy mountain, although she walked out of the Hades Mansion with a hint of happiness, but in her heart she had been hoping that he could chase him out, but in the end he did not appear......
The sudden discovery made her difficult to explain, her heart beat so hard that she tightened the placket on her chest, she couldn't imagine that now that she saw Mu Jiuxiao, she would still be difficult to control herself.
No, don't think about it, Lin Ling'er, you still have a long way to go, and the future road has nothing to do with this man, he has been stripped from your life.
Thinking so, she didn't dare to stay any longer, just wanted to stand up and continue walking, but a big hand stretched out from behind her to cover her mouth, she was shocked, panicked to find out the situation, before she could turn back, she was slapped on the neck, and she suddenly lost consciousness.
On the Chinese New Year's Eve of the Hades Palace, the maids and daughters were very happy, not only everyone got a reward, some people could also go back to their homes for the New Year, and the rest of the people sat together, eating and drinking, less of many restraints on weekdays.
The firecrackers in the house are crackling, and it looks like a lively and peaceful scene, but who can see the sadness hidden in their hearts?
Chongxiao Pavilion, Yun Chengcheng walked around in the west chamber with a stove in her hand, she had already looked at the door over and over again, but every time she got only disappointment.
Since successfully driving Lin Ling'er and Mu Tu away, her heart can be said to have been a lot of peace, and the news that came back said that Lin Ling'er and Mu Tu both disappeared in the snowy mountains and did not come out again, after so many days, they must have already frozen into zombies, right?
Lin Ling'er just took her secrets, with her jealousy, with her hatred for Mu Jiuxiao, died, this is really good, every time she thinks of the scene of her exile that day, Yun Chengcheng can't help but laugh out loud, Lin Ling'er robbed her man and snatched the favor that should have belonged to her, such an end is still light for her, leaving her a whole corpse, count her lucky.
As for Mutu, dying for her is also considered a well-deserved death, as soon as he dies, she no longer has to worry about the incident one day, after all, as a princess, no matter what the purpose of having an affair with the guards, it is a capital crime, but now that Mutu is dead, there is no proof of death, and she has nothing to fear.
"Two birds with one stone, two birds with one stone", that day she saw the purse exposed in Mutu's arms, she didn't expect it to be so useful, she couldn't help but sigh that she was smart, these two idioms are simply too suitable for her, from now on she can sit firmly on the throne of the princess, and the child she gave birth to will also be the eldest son of Hades, if Hades succeeds to the throne in the future, then she is the queen, and her son is the eldest prince!
She still remembered that after banishing the two of them that day, she followed Mu Jiuxiao into his study, she kept persuading Mu Jiuxiao to let him dissipate his anger and soothe his wounded heart, and he also praised her for having brains and helping him get rid of a pair of adulterers, and he also smiled at her, that smile made him look even more shocking, and she was so happy.
Although the prospects were very good, she didn't expect that she hadn't seen Mu Jiuxiao since that day.
She was pregnant, but he didn't seem to care if she was pregnant or not, she still lived the days of keeping the empty room alone in Chongxiao Pavilion, and the maid didn't give her more, only one more Su Xuan was around her all day, and everything else was the same.
Mu Jiuxiao didn't build her any bedroom, she wanted to regain her position and save the dignity of the princess at first, but unfortunately it didn't come true, and now she no longer has these extravagant hopes, she just wants to see Mu Jiuxiao every day, but even this simple request has become a luxury.
Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, he should come here to celebrate the New Year with the concubine, right? After all, he was such a princess, although she thought so in her heart, she also beat the drum, and did not dare to have too much hope.
She deliberately dressed herself up, put on a festive red, and her head was full of gold headdresses, which looked shining and moving, judging from her appearance, she really lived up to the name "Allure".
But from day to night, from breakfast to dinner, and now that it was almost over, he still did not appear.
When the slow and fast fourth watch "dong-dong, dong, dong" started, she smashed the stove in her hand to the ground, and the jade hand stove shattered to the ground, and the charcoal inside was scattered and smoking.
Qiu Yu and Dong Yu rushed to hear the sound, and when they saw this, they hurriedly packed up the things on the ground, Dong Yu wanted to speak and stopped, and when she was about to retreat, Yun Qicheng stopped her and said sharply:
"If you have a fart, let it go, don't try to play tricks in front of me."
Dongyu hurriedly knelt down, for this princess who was still alone in the empty room on Chinese New Year's Eve, she was still less troublesome, so she said bluntly:
"Back to the princess, just now the slave maid wanted to invite the prince again, but who knew that I met Chunxiao from Qingxinyuan halfway through, and I heard her say that the prince seemed to be going out......"
"Out of the house?"
Yun Chengcheng stood up suddenly, the news made her unable to believe it,
"Went to the palace? Didn't the prince just go to the palace during the day to say goodbye? Why do you go again at this time? ”
Lin Ling'er is dead, except for her, the concubine, Mu Jiuxiao should have no woman outside, where else will he go except for the palace at such a late hour?
"It seems、It doesn't seem to be the direction of the palace."
"Not the palace?"
"The prince went out alone, without an attendant with him, and no one knows where the prince went."
The winter rain is reported truthfully.
Rushing up in a rage, Yun Qicheng swept the fruit on the table to the ground like crazy, clenched his fists and shouted hysterically:
"Get out, get out of here, get out of here!"
Qiu Yu and Dong Yu hurriedly retreated before they had time to pack up the things on the ground, who knows if Yun Chengcheng will beat people again when they go crazy, and both of them have been beaten.
Why did Mu Jiuxiao do this to her? Didn't he say that he loved the princess very much? Why is the truth so inconsistent with the rumors? Since she changed her identity, she has not received his love for a day, he doesn't even want to look at her with the right eyes, and he doesn't even come to spend such a big day as Chinese New Year's Eve with her, she, the princess, has simply become an ornament, or an ornament that cannot be seen!
In Qingxin Garden, there is a person who empathizes with Yun Chengcheng at this time, and that is Shangguan Qingqing.
Like Yuncheng City, she had already sent Chunxiao to invite Mu Jiuxiao again and again, but the guards who kept vigil outside Mu Jiuxiao's study door told her that the prince would not see guests tonight, and Qiu Yu, Dong Yu and Chunxiao didn't even see Mu Jiuxiao's face.
Finally, when Chunxiao went to invite Mu Jiuxiao for the last time, she took the silver to buy off the guards outside the study, and the guards told her that Mu Jiuxiao had gone out, and it didn't seem to be going to the palace.
Shangguan Qing, who had waited all night, cleared her disappointment and curiosity, and like Yun Qingcheng, she didn't understand that Mu Jiuxiao would go out alone on Chinese New Year's Eve, and her whereabouts became a mystery.
Shangguan Qingqing lay on the desk weakly, his eyes were not focused, and he stared at a certain place in distraction.
Chunxiao brought a cup of hot lotus root soup over and said:
"Miss, eat something, you haven't eaten all night, don't be hungry."
Shangguan Qingqing said weakly:
"Chunxiao, you say, where will Brother Xiao go?"
Chunxiao sneered:
"Hmph, I didn't go to Chongxiao Pavilion anyway, miss, I met Dongyu when I came back just now, and like me, she also went to invite the prince again and again, but she was sent away. Now it seems that the princess of Cloud Allure City is not as good as you! At the very least, you can move around this mansion freely, and you can also look at the prince a few times as you wish. But what about her? was locked up in the Chongxiao Pavilion all day, and he couldn't even see the face of the prince. ”
Shangguan Qingqing seemed to be in a better mood after listening to her words, so he sat up straight and looked at her, Chunxiao came and continued with interest,
"No, on Chinese New Year's Eve, which family's master is not keeping the New Year with his wife, you look at our princess, this is her first year in Wani, but she was left out in the cold, it is really desolate." This Chongxiao Pavilion was originally the courtyard of the prince, and the women who could enter there before were simply gifted by the heavens, and if you look at it now, the Chongxiao Pavilion is about to become a cold palace, and the prince has long stopped going back to live, this princess, it's really not ordinary! ”
Chunxiao's words finally made Shangguan Qingqing smile, she picked up the spoon and stirred up the sticky lotus soup in the bowl, and the smile on her face suddenly expanded a little:
"Chunxiao, what did I ask you to prepare?"
When Chunxiao heard this, she suddenly blossomed, and a kind of excitement before the big event jumped on her face.
She leaned closer to Shangguan Qingqing's ear and whispered:
"Miss, I've been ready for a long time, I followed Li Huichun's instructions, one bubble, two sun, and three stir-fry, and the things are doing well."
The smile on Shangguan Qingqing's face lasted for a few seconds, and then gradually became gloomy, and a trace of evil in his eyes was undisguised:
"I originally wanted not to make Brother Xiao unhappy during the New Year, but I can't miss the opportunity when it comes, now Brother Xiao doesn't know where to go, and my heart is also up and down, since Lin Ling'er's death, Brother Xiao seems to have changed little on the surface, but who knows what he is thinking in his heart, he hasn't been to see the princess for so long, maybe because of Lin Ling'er's death, he hates Yun Chengcheng to death!"
"Miss is right, since Fang Cheng came back, the prince has become more and more indifferent to Yun Chengcheng, and everyone in the Hades Palace's mansion can see it, the slave maid thought, even if something happens to the princess, the prince shouldn't be so sad, right?"
Chunxiao adds oil and vinegar,
"Now that Lin Ling'er is dead, if the princess has another accident, then only you, Miss, will be left by the prince's side."
Shangguan Qingqing's eyes lit up, threw down the spoon, slowly stood up, and said to Chunxiao with a smile:
"Chunxiao, take the things you carefully prepared, let's go and accompany the princess to celebrate the New Year."
"Yes, miss."
Chunxiao's eyes glowed.
