Chapter 186: Miss Silo
Anyway, on that day, He Xingyao and Chu Yuan had a dispute because of the matter of the Sword Tower, and they were both blushing and thick-necked, and the posture was like a duel of enemies, completely lacking the gentleness and beauty of weekdays.
I saw He Xingyao say in a somewhat angry tone: "Chu Yuan, you are still different from the person I imagined after all, you in my heart, you will not give up until you achieve your goal, you told me before, saying that you would accompany me to the Sword Guest Tower, to all the places I want to go, but now you want to break your word and get fat?" ”
Chu Yuan looked at her, not to be outdone, and said, "What is the weight of breaking your word?" I'm just thinking about staying with my parents for a few more days, you and I are both raised by our parents, who is more noble than whom? Who is more humble than the other? ”
He Xingyao really didn't want to say anything, but he was really a little aggrieved in his heart.
She looked at Chu Yuan, her eyes lost their original brilliance, and her whole person was a little different.
Chu Yuan didn't say anything, but he was a little irritable, and the two of them were in a stalemate for a long time, neither of them wanted to speak first, and no one wanted to leave first.
It was at this time that a mysterious gray dove flew in front of the window and left a letter.
He Xingyao felt curious, so he opened it to see.
Chu Yuan was also a little curious about this mysterious pigeon for a while, but after the pigeon left the letter, it had already flown away without a trace, and he was now interested in the content of the letter, but unfortunately it was He Xingyao who was holding the letter, and he couldn't pull his face for a while.
As soon as He Xingyao opened the letter, his face instantly became very ugly.
Yes, the ink rain of the Mo royal family appeared in the capital, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, in the royal capital, it is really bold.
In fact, the content of this letter is only eight words: Orphan Mo Yu, be vigilant.
There is no signature under this letter, and I don't know who wrote it, let alone who sent the news, but He Xingyao just felt that it was very unusual, and the development of this matter was really unexpected.
She originally wanted to go to Xiwu City to find the Sword Tower, so as to find Mo Yu, but she didn't expect that now this person took the initiative to appear in this capital, what is it for?
He Xingyao looked at the letter and fell into deep thought for a while.
Chu Yuan looked at her and frowned, thinking that she should not quarrel with herself anymore, so he tentatively said, "Xingyao, what is written in this letter?" ”
He Xingyao said lightly: "It's Moyu's information." ”
After saying this, she seemed to have just reacted, and directly glared at Chu Yuan before continuing: "No, why should I tell you? If you want to know the contents of this letter, come and read it yourself! ”
Hearing this, Chu Yuan knew that she was actually still a little angry in her heart, even if she couldn't pull her face, she couldn't keep it like this after all.
After thinking of this, he didn't care about what He Xingyao said just now, and walked over gently.
It's a pity that He Xingyao seems to be deliberately going against him, and when he first came to him, she had already thrown the letter on the table.
Fortunately, Chu Yuan was not angry at this time, so he took the letter and read it.
"Xingyao, that Mo Yu has come to the capital now, why didn't you tell me?"
He Xingyao looked at him and said, "I don't say it, you still know, so it doesn't matter if I say it or not!" ”
Chu Yuan pursed his lips, poured two cups of tea directly, and then drank it.
He Xingyao looked at his calm appearance, and the anger in his heart didn't come to a place, but he really couldn't think of what to say.
The current situation between these two people is actually the kind of talk that does not speculate for more than half a sentence.
It is said that He Muzhi was about to look for He Xingyao at this time, but he happened to see Chu Yuan from outside the door, sitting on the table and sipping his lips and tasting tea, so he said: "Brother Chu Yuan, have you seen my sister?" ”
She stood outside the door and didn't notice He Xingyao in the direction of Chu Yuan's oblique direction at all, so she asked.
Chu Yuan smiled and said, "Why don't you come in and sit?" This tea is a good tea, and the taste is not bad, but unfortunately although this person is a good one, his temper is really a little worse. ”
This is really a bit nonsensical, He Muzhi looked at himself, and looked around again, there are no people around here.
So, she looked at Chu Yuan and said in a somewhat surprised tone: "Brother Chu Yuan, who are you talking about?" Who's a little bit bad-tempered? ”
Chu Yuan shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'm just complaining for a while, you just listen to it, forget it, anyway, whoever has a bad temper has a good heart." ”
As soon as she finished saying this, He Xingyao had already walked over from the inside, she looked at Chu Yuan, pointed to his nose, and even exaggerated her hands on her waist and said, "Bad temper? Thanks to you, how do I remember who said I had a good temper? Is this man so forgetful? Or are you not taking me to heart at all? No wonder I kept saying that I was going to the Sword Tower, and I kept saying that I was going to Seibu City, but you didn't react at all, it turned out that your memory was too bad, and you didn't care about me all the time, no wonder! ”
As soon as he finished saying this, He Muzhi's eyes suddenly widened, his mouth opened wide, and he looked frightened.
She didn't notice that He Xingyao was in this room at all, so she was very surprised for a while.
"Sister, you, you're here? I thought you were somewhere else! ”
As soon as he finished saying this, He Xingyao sneered: "What am I going to do somewhere else?" The prince of Chuyuan was still connotating me just now, saying that his temper is a little too bad, and it is better to taste tea, heh, I am here with him, and now it seems that it is useless! ”
Chu Yuan listened to what she said in shock, but he didn't plan to care about it for a while, after all, as a man, if he had to be careful about everything, he really didn't like such a small-bellied person.
So, he made an excuse and left directly.
At this time, a strange maid came over with a pot of melons and fruits, He Xingyao and He Muzhi both took it and ate it for a while, by the way, observing the clothes and ornaments of this maid, the more they looked at it, the more they felt that something was wrong, this is different from ordinary maids, whether it is dress or bearing, they are all other maids, unattainable.
He Xingyao was really curious, so he said, "You raise your head and tell me, what's your name?" ”
As soon as she finished saying this, the maid put the refreshments on the table, saluted respectfully, and then said slowly: "Back to the girl, the slave's name is Siluo, and now the deputy envoy of the Shangsi Bureau who is serving in the palace has made some small mistakes, so she was rewarded by the queen mother to the first family as a maid, and the lady is very good, so she treats me not harshly." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, He Xingyao and He Muzhi were shocked, they didn't expect this little maid to be so big.
As we all know, the female official agency in the palace, Shang Si Bureau, has always only recruited innocent, talented, and gentle women to manage the big and small things in the palace, because such people are talented, and naturally deal with all things, compared with those who don't know anything and only know how to bury their heads in things, I don't know how many times.
And this capital has always been rumored, said to be the female official institution of the palace Shang Si Bureau, those female officials in it, claimed to be maids, but in fact, all of them have the talent to be admitted to the top prize, but unfortunately they are not men, but despite this, those women are still ambitious, so they often test their talents in the monk book bureau, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing......
It can be said that the female officials of the Shangsi Bureau are all all-round talents, which makes the talents of the Shangshu Bureau, who often serve the emperor, often annoyed, but the emperor is happy with this situation, and even vigorously admires it.
Not for anything else, the names of the female officials in the palace are loud, and it will not have any effect, after all, they are still called maids to the outside world, but those talents in the Shangshu Bureau are all selected from the annual palace examination to enter the Shangshu Bureau, so when they see that those female officials are even better than them in some aspects, the jealousy and uneasiness in their hearts have reached the peak.
Although the He sisters were born in Yuecheng and far away from the capital, they had also heard of the names of the Shangsi Bureau and the Shangshu Bureau in the palace, and they also knew a little about these, but they were not comprehensive.
Now the two sisters are lucky to be able to see a maid from the Shang Division Bureau with their own eyes.
I saw He Xingyao looking at Siluo in front of him, and said with a smile: "Miss Siluo, in this way, you are really too aggrieved to be a maid serving tea and pouring water here, why don't you continue to go back?" ”
Silo sighed, shook her head, and said nothing.
Seeing this, He Muzhi also felt a little bored, but he didn't want to let go of this opportunity, so he could only speak: "Siluo, my sister is right, since you can enter the Shang Si Bureau, why do you have to be buried here?" Wouldn't that be a pity? ”
Siluo looked at her and said: "Miss Muzhi, you don't know the reason for this, it is difficult for the Shangsi Bureau to enter, because that is the standard set by the emperor's favorite woman herself, but it is a pity that the beauty is short-lived after all, so after so many years, the Shangsi Bureau still exists, but as long as there are people who have made mistakes, after being kicked out of the palace, it is impossible to return to the palace." ”
The emperor's favorite woman, the standard set by himself, what kind of legendary person should this be!
For no reason, He Xingyao's curiosity about that woman doubled, so after thinking for a while, he said directly: "Miss Siluo, since you said so, then I don't understand, do you know who the emperor's favorite woman was back then?" ”
He Muzhi looked carefully, and directly pulled Siluo up from the ground at once, then looked at her and said, "Yes, Miss Siluo, the person my sister wants to know is also the person I want to know, just tell me!" ”
Siluo couldn't help it, so she cleared her throat and said: "Actually, I also heard from the older generation, saying that many years ago, the emperor fell in love with the imperial daughter of a former dynasty royal family and married her, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, the woman's identity was too sensitive after all, and the court had already been subverted, how could those ministers allow a woman from the previous dynasty to appear?" Even in the palace, it is a potential and huge threat. ”
As soon as he finished saying this, He Xingyao suddenly smiled and said, "A potential and huge threat? They still think that a girl who is powerless just wants to stay with her beloved for the rest of her life, is it such a small wish, those ministers are unwilling? Or is the dynasty they built really so fragile and vulnerable? ”
When Siluo heard this, she felt that it was the same truth, but it was a pity that when she heard about this thing back then, she didn't think too much about it in her heart, let alone think about these things deeply.
"Yes, it's still a girl, you think thoughtfully, when I learned about this matter, I just secretly sighed in my heart, and now that you say this, I also think that those ministers are too cautious, a woman, and can't subvert the government, but they are still unwilling to let go after all."
Hearing this, He Xingyao continued to be indignant: "That Siluo girl, do you know what the final fate of that woman is? ”
Siluo shook her head and said softly: "Although I don't know, I have vaguely heard some rumors in the palace, it is said that the woman has left the palace many years ago, when she left, she was pregnant with a child, the child was about to be born, but it is a pity that the rumors of the year were too tight, but after all, it is more auspicious and less auspicious!" ”
After saying this, Silo sighed, feeling sorry for the woman.
He Xingyao can't imagine it anyway, but being able to come up with the girl who founded the Shang Si Bureau must be extraordinary.
However, she also heard some key information, the imperial daughter of the royal family of the previous dynasty, the royal family of the previous dynasty, that is to say, it is not the Mo royal family, but the Wushuang clan, by the way, it is this ethnic group.
He Xingyao clearly remembered in his heart that the emperor's country was changed hands from the previous dynasty, so the imperial daughter of the royal family of the previous dynasty was naturally the mother of Yao'er that Zhou Yi and Zhouzhuang's old woman had said, and the only woman who still lived in the palace after the royal family was subverted was Yao'er's mother.
He Xingyao has always been a smart woman, so she quickly extracted the key information, but unfortunately she ignored the most important link, that is, Yao'er back then, I don't know where this child is now, but he is still alive?
He Muzhi didn't know the inside story, so he couldn't make an effective and reasonable judgment for a while, so it was naturally inconvenient to say anything.
After Silo had done her job well, she left with a slightly sad expression.
He Muzhi thought at first that she must have been wrong, but unfortunately she confirmed again and again, and she could still feel what was on the mind of this Siluo girl.
It's just that a woman who can get out of the Shang Si Bureau is not simple in any case, and she can't believe it at all, because of a little mistake, she was kicked out of the palace, isn't this a big loss for the Shang Si Bureau?
After thinking of this, He Muzhi suddenly felt that he was very smart, so he directly tugged on He Xingyao's sleeve and said, "Sister, sister, I seem to have figured it out all of a sudden." ”
He Xingyao looked at her somewhat impetuous expression, and directly hit her on the head before saying, "Xiao'er, what did you suddenly figure out?" What are you fighting with me? ”
"There's no dumbness, really, sister, I think there must be something wrong with Miss Siluo, don't look at her so big, but I always feel that this thing must be very unusual, at least not like what she said herself, according to Siluo's description, the emperor should be a long-term person, after all, the Shangsi Bureau founded by his favorite woman himself, has not been abolished for so many years, and now, just because of a little mistake, he drove people out of the palace, isn't that self-destructive?"
Hearing this, He Xingyao also felt a little suspicious, the identity of this Siluo girl and the words she said, on the surface, there are no loopholes, but if you think about it, it won't work, there are pitfalls everywhere, and there are loopholes everywhere.
