Rong Ruo sat in the carriage, and as the carriage bumped, the things in her mind were filtered layer by layer.

At the end of last month, Shang Ji, who led his troops to exterminate the 33 villages in Jingnan, finally couldn't resist sending a request for help, and his subordinates suffered heavy casualties, so he begged the emperor to send reinforcements.

Originally, the emperor thought that it was more than enough for a businessman to come out and clean up those mountain bandits who were not in the climate, but he didn't expect that the thieves were cunning, and they had already twisted into a rope, and the leader's advice became a difficult bone to gnaw.

Yan Hui went to the palace again to ask for a performance, and the emperor couldn't resist the pressure and finally approved his request, asking him to bring 3,000 soldiers and horses to Jingnan for reinforcements, and he couldn't return to Beijing unless Jingnan was cleaned up.

Green Bird didn't say much, Rong Ruo could also guess that Yan went back to Jingnan to discuss with Mu Beichen and them, the emperor could not let him go back to the Yan family army in the northwest, staying in Beijing like a hostage, it would gradually wear down his fighting spirit, I don't know, after the winter solstice garden party in the palace, she also understood that it was more dangerous to be choked in Beijing.

After these people took Rong Ruo into the carriage, they galloped all the way, and when they stopped and got out of the carriage, Rong Ruo was not surprised to look at the palace walls that were uniformly painted red.

Rong Ruo walked quickly in the middle with the people in front of her, her eyebrows were slightly constricted, and her eyelashes were slightly lowered, covering the eyes flowing in them, she could see that these people were palace guards, but she couldn't guess who the owner behind them was.

Since it can't be avoided, it's better to come and see it than to let Green Bird Bai work hard and incur injuries, the main reason is that Rong Ruo didn't see the murderous aura in their eyes.

When entering the palace gate, the leader took out a token, and the guards at the gate were solemn when they saw it, and immediately gave a salute and let them go.

All the way is the road in the palace with few people, and when he really arrived, Rong Ruo looked up at the tall and solemn palace, his face remained unchanged, but he also knew the general purpose of this trip.

These days, Rong Ruo is hiding in the room, and there is a lot of news outside, and the serious one is conveyed by the green finch, and as for the gossip, Banxia and Yuegui take turns to whisper in her ear.

It is said that the crown prince braved the bitter cold and knelt in the imperial study for a whole day the day after the garden party, and it was not until the crown princess brought her pregnant belly to intercede that the emperor released the prince.

So, when the green finch came, Rong Ruo asked casually, only to know that the prince had made a mistake in the harem on the day of the garden party, and he actually drunk and ruined the innocence of the girl.

I heard that the prince originally planned to find an idle palace to sit and sober up, but no one knew why there happened to be a girl changing clothes inside.

Rong Ruo also saw that the green finch had some invisible abnormalities when he spoke, his heart moved slightly, and after asking, the green finch told him truthfully, because the prince forced Rong Ruo to drink tea that day, Mu Beichen gave the prince a sip of sobering wine in return.

Of course, Rong Ruo would not think that Mu Beichen was trying to make himself angry, especially when he heard that the woman who had a relationship with the prince was none other than the second daughter of the Wuhou Tong family.

It doesn't matter if anything else, the most important thing is that this Wuhou Tong has always looked forward to Liu Changben, and he is the first person under Prime Minister Liu, and he has married in-laws, and the two families have long been indistinguishable from you and me, and they are in the same vein.

This is good, if Liu Siyi was the princess of King Duan, but Wuhou Tong's daughter entered the East Palace, what would Liu Chang think, he thought that Wuhou Tong couldn't bear it, and he had other thoughts behind his back.

The most important thing is that Mu Beichen's soldiers didn't make a little unhappy on both sides, choking on a fish bone in their throats, and they couldn't die, but they were very angry.

After a full moon-shaped archway, the snow-stained shoes creaked slightly on the blue-gray wood floor of the cloister, until the strong smell of medicine wafted into the tip of her nose, and the person leading the way in front of her stopped abruptly and made a gesture to her for a moment.

Rong Ruo subconsciously looked behind the right, the sky was vast, the clouds were shallow, there was not even a single bird, her eyes fell on a trembling red maple branch, and she quickly retracted her gaze, and her heart was inexplicably calmer.

Before getting into the carriage, Yuegui and Banxia had already asked her to send her home, because there was no point in them going with her, even if they went, it would not be useful, it was better to go back to the house and inform her, at least now Mu Beichen would not care about her life or death. Therefore, Rong Ruo put her hand behind her back and gestured to the green finch, firstly to tell her to calm down, and secondly, to let her follow secretly.

The heavy door was slowly pushed open, Rong Ruo first smelled a strong smell of medicine, she walked in, and saw a graceful and dignified Furong face, two thin willow eyebrows raised slightly, a three-point smile on her lips, her hand on her abdomen, leaning on the couch, and whispered: "It's really not good to invite you like this, but I don't have a better way." "Dancing in Chinese

Rong Ruo stepped forward a few steps, separated by seven or eight steps, and saluted from a distance: "The people's daughter sees the crown princess." ”

Lu Siming stretched out her hand and dragged it, there was a bit of fatigue hidden between her eyebrows, she propped herself up on the pillow, and Qingtang, who was waiting beside her, put up the pillow to make her sit more comfortably, Lu Siming chuckled silently: "I haven't seen you for a long time, but you are divided again." ”

"The women don't dare." Rong Ruo's eyebrows did not move, his heavy eyes were as clear as water, and at this time, the tails of his eyes were raised, obviously with a smile on his face, and the bottom of his eyes clearly revealed a clear coldness.

Lu Siming stared at Rong Ruo for a moment, waved his hand and asked Qingtang to go to the incense burner in the house, "The smell is strange, I don't smell Qingning, but it's a little boring." ”

Qingtang blessed the blessing and extinguished the sandalwood in the incense burner, but he didn't know what the sandalwood was made of.

"Miss Rong, I am looking for you today for nothing else, I should beg you for the child in my womb." Lu Siming told everyone else to retreat, leaving Qingtang waiting at the door, she stroked her lips and smiled, her eyebrows and eyes were a little helpless, and her words were sighing, very depressed.

Rong Ruo remembered the first time she saw Lu Siming, her pointed melon seed face had a warm and gentle smile, and her pair of water-cut autumn eyes were like stars in the sky, which were not lit, but now her chin was rounded, and her eyes were not as bright as before, as if they were covered by the dark clouds in the sky, and she was a different person.

Rong Ruo was unmoved, took a step back, looked up at Lu Siming, and said calmly and calmly: "The crown princess can't afford to say this. ”

Lu Siming held the hand of the brocade handkerchief and rested on the edge of the couch, the large cluster of yellow autumn chrysanthemums on the handkerchief covered the back of her hand, she was not displeased by Rong Ruo's cold tone, her eyes moved, her eyes were light and ethereal, and she said slowly: "After Doctor Liu changed the prescription, I couldn't lift my spirits, and when this incense was first burned, I used it for a few days, and now I am getting more and more tired, and I can't leave the bed, I wonder if I'm not good, but no one ...... say."

Rong Ruoyu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, she remembered that Wu Daoqing had said that Concubine Lin had Zhang Fangzi to warm the fetus in the princess's womb in the form of depletion of the mother's body, Wu Daoqing refused on the grounds that Fangzi was too fierce and incompatible with the way of heaven, but Concubine Lin still used it for the princess. But judging by Concubine Lin's character, this is indeed what she can do.

"Miss Rong......" When Rong Ruo was in the fugue, Lu Siming, who listened to her, called her softly, she blinked at Lu Siming, who smiled faintly and said: "I asked you to protect my son from being born safely, but you haven't done it yet." ”

Speaking seriously, Rong Ruo can completely refute that he has done his best to be benevolent, but the prince and Concubine Lin are paranoid and out of proportion, looking at Lu Siming's smiling appearance, Rong Ruo can't treat a sick and weak woman like this after all.

"I want to protect him." The smile in Lu Siming's eyes has disappeared, only serious and stubborn remains, and she gently rubs her palm against her stomach, "I want to protect him." "It's not so much repetition as it is a kind of insistence on self-explanatory.

Life in the world for a lifetime, unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, poor are worried, rich and leak sorrows, few people who are all good.

It was the same last time, Lu Siming couldn't postpone Rong Ruo with the greatest maternal love brilliance in human nature, her eyebrows were heavy, her eyelids were lowered, the clear waves in her eyes were slightly rippling, and the corners of her mouth were pursed into a straight line.

The original intention at the beginning has been very different from now, the East Palace and the Jing Wangfu have also drawn a clear boundary after this period of time, she as a person who is temporarily divided into the Jing Wang's lineage, should not have too much contact with the East Palace, but the princess's birth, she has indeed entrusted her to take care of it, she has never broken her word and become fat.

Lu Siming held the handkerchief in his hand and kneaded it into a ball, his delicate and elegant face looked at Rong Ruo in a daze, a trace of anxiety in his eyes was well hidden, and his soft lips moved, and said: "Xiaojin's matter is not my intention, I asked someone to check her origin afterwards, and searched for it according to the registered address, but there is no such person, although the parents and brothers and sisters above have found this person, but they don't know her at all, I think that she entered the palace with a fake name...... "If you need to enter the palace under a fake name, you must have made a good plan from the beginning, and you will filter it according to this layer, The range of candidates that can be determined is much smaller, and it is not difficult to find out the mastermind behind it with the connections of Jingwangfu.

Lu Siming said this, and also told Rong Ruo that Xiaojin was not instructed by her, and had nothing to do with the East Palace, and tactfully expressed her apologies to Rong Ruo.

The dignified princess should not be so accommodating to a folk woman, but now not to mention that Lu Siming has a request for Rong Ruo, but also because Rong Ruo is blessed with the name of the future Princess Jing, everyone has to treat her with courtesy.

Rong Ruo had long known that nothing could be found out from Xiao Jin, otherwise she would not have arranged for her to enter the palace as a meticulous work, "It is a good game, even if it is not Xiao Jin, it will be someone else." ”

Lu Siming smiled slowly: "It's good for you to think like this." Then I didn't know what to think, my eyebrows twisted, and the person suddenly sat up straight, and said solemnly: "Could it be her ......?"

"The crown princess." Rong Ruo didn't wait for Lu Siming's words to come out, and suddenly raised his voice and called out: "Since you have already taken Imperial Doctor Liu's medicine, I don't know what else I can do." ”
