Chapter 24: Late-Night Visitors
The case was quickly solved. It was made by a maid in the garment room. This maid used to be a second-class maid by Qian Qiaoqiao's side. After a thousand clever confinements were enough, she was assigned to do drudgery in the garment room.
According to this maid, her life is much harder than before, and she has a grudge against her for a long time. So, when she saw the peony red dress, she thought it must be for the princess, so she poisoned it.
Hearing the news, Li Jiujiu shook his head helplessly: "Li Moxuan has found a substitute for the dead ghost." ”
Bi Luo didn't understand very well: "Although the slave doesn't want the prince to find out." However, this poison is not from Moxuan, why did she find a replacement for the dead ghost. ”
In fact, Li Moxuan also wanted to find the murderer, but she couldn't let Yun Chuhan investigate. In case of digging up gardenia pollen, even if Yun Chuhan dotes on her again, he can't tolerate her harming his mother. "Jiujiu's face is still a little pale, this kind of bitter trick, she doesn't want to use it a second time.
I walked around the ghost gate, but it was in vain. I felt for a long time that I was smart but I was mistaken by being smart. Next time, it's better to plan well.
"Yun Chuhan handed over an errand in front of the emperor. I'm still guarding this cold yard. I don't know how long it will be before such a day passes. Biluo, apart from you, only Concubine De cares about me. "I suddenly remembered that dream.
Was Qi Min, the long-lost mother, killed? There is no trace of it in the memory of a long time.
"Concubine De is really good to Miss. But I don't see each other a few times a year. Bi Luo said regretfully.
"Concubine De's kindness to me, I keep it in my heart. I just don't know if there is a chance to repay in this life. As soon as I entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and I didn't have a chance to fulfill my filial piety as a princess. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yun Chuhan walking in.
Fang Cai's words, Yun Chuhan heard it. He didn't expect that he would still have this heart for a long time.
Bi Luo hurriedly helped Jiujiu to stand up, and the two saluted.
"Sit down, you're not well." Yun Chuhan's voice was no longer as indifferent as before.
After a long time, he immediately understood, and what he said about Concubine De was heard by Yun Chuhan. So, his attitude towards himself is much better than before.
Well...... It is indeed much better, although it is still 108,000 miles away from Mo Xuan.
He was not polite for a long time, sat down again, and crossed Erlang's legs.
"Lord Wang, I'm really sorry. The mother did not agree and left. I wanted to wait until after the banquet to beg her for the old man. But who knew I would be poisoned! ”
Yun Chuhan looked at Erlang's legs, which had been cocked for a long time, and couldn't help frowning: "What kind of system!" ”
After speaking, Yun Chuhan flicked his sleeves and walked away.
"Miss, the prince finally came here...... Bi Luo looked at Li Jiujiu and pointed to her cocked Erlang legs.
Lijiu didn't care about it: "In the future, how happy and how to live." I don't want to please others, let alone Yun Chuhan. Someone who doesn't care about me, why should I care about him! ”
In fact, Yun Chuhan stopped when he walked out of the courtyard gate. Because he remembered that he came to Dongxue Courtyard to ask how he was doing, but he walked out before he could ask.
The words that had been away for a long time clearly floated into Yun Chuhan's ears.
She did change. It was just a thought, and Yun Chuhan forgot it in a blink of an eye. He's going to the Spring Courtyard, and the woman he loves is waiting for him.
Spring Courtyard
"That's it?" Li Moxuan held back a fire in her heart.
"Miss, as long as you calm down, there will be a chance." Jing Lan hurriedly comforted.
Jiu'er walked in: "Miss, the prince is going to the Winter Snow Courtyard again." ”
When Mo Xuan heard the fire in her heart, she swooped up, and she slapped her palm on the table, but she didn't feel pain.
"I can see it, this poison is clearly caused by Jiujiu himself, and he is making a bitter trick with the prince!"
"Miss is angry, the prince is a little sympathetic to her at most." Jiu'er hurriedly grabbed in front of Jinglan and said.
However, a man's sympathy was enough for her to gain a firm foothold in the palace. Look at how the dining room and the internal affairs room have changed their faces in the past few days, and they are in a hurry to please that slut! There was a faint uneasiness in Mo Xuan's heart.
Jinglan smiled and said, "Miss, sympathy for this kind of thing won't last long." It will not give birth to love because of sympathy. Miss don't worry. The slave maid felt that the most important thing at the moment was not to get rid of Lijiu, but to give birth to a little son. ”
Li Moxuan subconsciously touched her face: "It's been two years, why hasn't there been any movement?" ”
"Miss, this can't be ...... urgently"
Before Jiu'er finished speaking, she was interrupted by Jing Lan: "Miss, the slave maid thinks that she should find a nourishing prescription to take care of her body." ”
"Makes sense." Li Moxuan nodded.
***
Yun Chuhan didn't come to the Winter Snow Courtyard two or three times, and after staying for less than half an hour, the wind direction of this palace changed a little.
In the face of the flattery of the dining room and the internal affairs room, it was accepted for a long time.
However, it soon faded away. Because Yun Chuhan never came again after that.
I have been recuperating for a long time. Finally, I made a full recovery near August 15.
Outside the window, the moon is bright.
After a long time, I remembered that tomorrow was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I couldn't help but feel sentimental in my heart.
It was quiet outside, with the occasional chirping of insects.
Bi Luo saw that he was looking out of the window quietly for a long time, and there was a touch of sadness between his eyebrows. It's been a long time since I've seen her like this, and Biluo knows that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Miss, it's not too early, let's rest. The slave went to pour some hot water and asked the young lady to wash her face. Bi Luo said.
"Biluo, do you have a piano?" Lijiu asked suddenly.
"Yes, slave and maid go and get it." Bi Luo hurriedly said.
The guqin at the bottom of the box is something that others disdain. Lijiujiu brought it from the Prime Minister's Mansion, because it was the only piano she had ever used since she was a child. It's very old, and it's not from a famous person.
However, the real departure is only a little bit of a play. So this piano has been kept in the warehouse, and it is covered with dust.
Biluo blew hard, and the dust on it flew up and hit her face.
Bi Luo couldn't help but cough. She returned to the house and carefully wiped the guqin clean, and then placed it in front of Li Jiujiu.
She has been versatile since she was a child and can play many musical instruments, and the guqin is one she is good at.
He put his finger on the strings and took a deep breath. Her fingers moved, and the melodious sound of the piano filled the entire Winter Snow Courtyard before drifting out along the wall.
Su Rin was sitting at the gate of the courtyard, holding a pot of wine in his hand, and when he heard the sound of the piano coming from the winter snow courtyard, his hand couldn't help but stop.
"When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky. I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace......"
Lijiujiu sang.
Bi Luo looked away for a long time, she didn't know that her young lady had such a beautiful singing voice, singing songs she had never heard before.
After singing the song for a long time, Bi Luo was stunned, still immersed in the singing. And Su Rin also forgot to drink.
"Papapa", applause came from the courtyard.
"Who!" Lijiujiu suddenly became vigilant.
Bi Luo's thoughts were interrupted, and he thought, isn't it the prince?
Although Bi Luo hoped that it was Yun Chuhan, a man came over in the dark and appeared at the door.
After many days of not seeing, he is still as sultry as that night.
When she saw Situ Jing for a long time, she was very surprised, but she quickly became sensible.
"How do you know I'm in the Chu Palace?"
Seeing a trace of vigilance on Lijiujiu's face, Situ Jing walked in and said with a smile: "I go to the night market every night, but I don't see you." Later, I inquired in many ways, and finally knew that you were from the Chu Palace. ”
Hearing him say this, Lijiujiu was a little happy in his heart. It turned out that he had been looking for himself.
"Do you know who I am?" This sentence was asked by a long time ago.
If Situ Jingming just wants to find excitement and treat herself as dewy and blushing, then she will not be with her for a long time.
The smile on Situ Jing's face disappeared, and he looked a little sad.
Bi Luo retreated playfully and closed the door.
Situ Jing rushed over with an arrow and hugged Li Jiujiu: "Since I saw you for the first time, I can never forget it." Leave Yun Chuhan, the ends of the earth, where you go, I will go with you. ”
This sudden confession made Li Jiujiu a little confused, but the warmth soon overflowed his heart like a river bursting the embankment. His arms were really warm, and the smell on his body was really good.
However, he still gently pushed him away.
"You...... Don't want to? Situ Jing's voice sounded a little sad.
Looking at Situ Jing's eyes for a long time, they were even more beautiful than the stars in the sky. If you're not careful, you get stuck and you can't get out again.
"I do." I couldn't help but say it for a long time.
The sadness on Situ Jing's face disappeared instantly, and he hugged Li Jiujiu again, harder than just now.
It was too tight to be hugged for a long time, and it felt like it was about to breathe.
"You let go, let go! Men and women don't kiss! Although I am happy in my heart, I still have to be reserved.
Situ Jing didn't let go, so he had to push him away for a long time.
At this time, Lijiujiu's face was already red.
"I can't give you any promises right now. But if you're willing to wait. Wait for me to clear up the relationship with Yun Chuhan. ”
Situ Jing nodded again and again: "Okay, I'll wait." I waited for as long as I wanted. ”
Looking at Situ Jing's handsome and handsome face, he felt like he was dreaming for a long time. If she hadn't crossed over, her saliva would probably have flowed to the ground. But this is ancient after all, reserved and reserved at a glance.
Li Jiujiu took a deep breath, trying to restrain the deer in her heart, she cleared her throat and said, "But, I don't know your side yet. I have a few questions for you. ”
Situ Jing smiled: "Don't worry, I'm not a suspicious person." I am a wealthy businessman, my parents are dead, I am not married, and I am alone. Well, you ask. I'll answer them one by one. ”
After a long time, he showed a bad smile: "Breaking into the Chu Palace, isn't it suspicious?" ”
