Chapter 255: I'll Help You
Influenced by his mother, he didn't like Concubine Shu's character left and right. In addition, the two of them had things for each other and didn't want others to know, Ye Yuqing just chatted with them and left after a few words.
There were only Ye Yuhong and Concubine Shu's people left in the whole room, Ye Yuhong glanced at Shuang'er, and she found an excuse to retreat.
Concubine Shu signaled and told the maid to wait outside, and only the two of them were left in the huge room.
"Concubine Niangniang came here not just to send flowers, right?" Ye Yuhong is not a master who likes to beat around the bush, so she simply gets straight to the point.
When Concubine Shu heard this, she just smiled faintly and did not respond.
"If Concubine Shu Niang doesn't want to admit it, I can't do it, but you come to help me out of the siege this time, if you wait for Ye Yuqing to react, I'm afraid I will dislike Concubine Shu Niang even more." Seeing that she didn't speak, Ye Yuhong continued to talk to herself.
Concubine Shu, who has never fought or robbed, still said gently: "She and the queen have never liked me, I'm afraid they have already hated me to the core." But you, how can you tell that I'm not here to deliver flowers? ”
Ye Yuhong smiled indifferently, glanced at the big red peony flower that had been placed on the windowsill, and continued: "This peony blooms beautifully, and it is an extremely precious variety. If the lady wants to send flowers, she should naturally choose a sunny weather, otherwise the rain will be heavy and accidentally fall on the petals, which will damage its charm. And ......."
She paused, looked in the direction of Concubine Shu, and saw that her eyes were kind, and she did not have any anger, so she continued: "Moreover, Concubine Shuniang has always been strict in doing things and abiding by the law of etiquette, Ye Yuqing ranks third, according to the law of etiquette, Concubine Shu Niangniang should send flowers to her house first, how can there be any reason to send them to my house first." ”
In just a few words, all the deficiencies were singled out, and the satisfied look in Concubine Shu's eyes became more and more intense.
"Sure enough, he is worthy of the person I like, and he is indeed smart. When I received the message, I was too short on time, and I didn't have time to think too much, so I hurried to this side. Fortunately, Ye Yuqing doesn't have such a delicate mind as you, otherwise I'm afraid I would still be entangled with you here. ”
"Lady Niangniang, why do you want to help me?" Seeing that the other party did not shy away from the idea, Ye Yuhong said solemnly, "You should know my current situation, befriending me will only put you in a disadvantageous situation." ”
As if she had already guessed that Ye Yuhong would ask such a question, Concubine Shu just smiled lightly, and said slowly: "I know that you are worried that I will help you have other plans, but this time you really misunderstood." I have never fought or robbed in this palace, and there is no need to make trouble for myself. If it weren't for your mother's help to me, I wouldn't have helped you. ”
Her voice gradually became a little muffled as she spoke to the back. There was a hint of worry in his eyes, as if he remembered those things in the past.
"Even if my mother helped you back then, she is no longer alive. Even if you don't help me, no one will say anything about you. Ye Yuhong is not a person who will believe only by relying on the other party's words, so she can't help but continue to ask. Those eyes were even more focused on each other's faces, for fear that they would miss any subtle expressions.
Concubine Shu sighed, as if she was infinitely nostalgic: "Although she is no longer there, her kindness has always blessed me." If it weren't for her, I might have disappeared within a month of coming to this palace. ”
What she said was true, Concubine Shu was not originally the daughter of a high-ranking official or nobleman, but just a singer who was favored by the emperor in a private visit.
Born like her, if she enters the palace without the protection of the emperor, even if she is a palace maid of a higher rank, she will dare to say some bastard things in front of her.
Coupled with that gentle nature that does not fight or grab, if you want to live like this, if there is no help from others, it can really only be said that it is a miracle.
"I know that I didn't help you when you were wronged in the past, and now it will make you a little confused when you suddenly make a move. Even if you have doubts about me, that's right, and I don't blame you. When Concubine Shu spoke, her expression was always so gentle, like a mother, looking at her softly.
was watched by such a caring gaze, Ye Yuhong even had the illusion for a moment, thinking that the person in front of her was her biological mother.
Perhaps moved by her words, Ye Yuhong's always serious face suddenly laughed: "Concubine Shuniang, I believe you." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and then said some thoughtful words in the palace, and chatted for about half an hour before Concubine Shu slowly left.
In the evening, Ye Yuhong came to Xiao Beichen's house dressed in black and knocked on the door gently.
At this time, two shifts have passed, and in addition to the guards on duty in the palace, even the palace maids are no longer hanging outside. The five princesses came to find themselves at this point in time, presumably something big happened.
Directly invited people into the house, Xiao Beichen sent someone to guard the door. After confirming that there was no one else around, he said in confusion: "It's so late, what problem did Hong'er encounter?" ”
In front of Xiao Beichen, Ye Yuhong was no longer tense, and just did it, and poured herself a glass of water with ease. After drinking it all, he lightly opened his lips: "During the day, Concubine Shuniang came to me, saying that she wanted to repay her kindness and help me." ”
It was just a few simple words, but Xiao Beichen had already understood all her thoughts, and he flicked the fan in his hand and made an extremely nice voice: "Do you think that Concubine Niangniang's behavior is a plot?" ”
did not shy away from saying what Ye Yuhong thought in her heart, she only felt very happy, and directly poured out her doubts in one go.
"So you came to me at this time to ask me to help you keep an eye on the movements of Concubine Shu's side?" Without waiting for the other party to say what he intended in the future, Xiao Beichen had already guessed.
Ye Yuhong nodded with satisfaction, with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Brother Xiao is really powerful, he doesn't need me to say everything at all, he can already understand what I think in my heart." ”
Where is it like that Ye Lige, obviously he has already shown himself, but he is like a stuffy gourd.
I don't know when it started, Ye Yuhong would compare the two in her heart. Although Xiao Beichen was better in the final result every time, what she didn't find was that even when she said that Ye Lige was a nerd, the smile in the corner of her eyes was the strongest.
There was silence all around, and Ye Yuhong reacted from her belly. Looking at the slightly troubled face of the person in front of him, he said carefully: "If Brother Xiao feels difficult and doesn't want to help, it doesn't matter, anyway, ......"
"I'll help you."
I don't know if it was that sentence that touched the other party, the voice seemed to rush out, and his eyes were a little hot, which unconsciously made Ye Yuhong a little irritable.
