Chapter 260: Full of Incense
Ouyang Zhen returned to the palace, sighed lightly, lay on the couch and shook the fan, Chu Huo came to see her after the court dealt with state affairs.
When he came in, he didn't order anyone to pass it on, he only came in quietly, and when he entered the inner hall, he saw Ouyang Zhen lying on the beauty couch in the window, his jade arms were like snow, his sideburns were slightly scattered to the side, and there was a faint sadness on his jade face.
Ouyang Zhen's side is extremely beautiful, and it is also ethereal and elegant, and it is not reduced by half a point because of pregnancy. Chu Huotian stood in front of the door with his hands in his hands, although he could almost see her every day, he was also stunned.
Li Jingcai covered his mouth on the side and retreated with a low smile, and also hurriedly took a bunch of irrelevant people and so on.
Ouyang Zhen lay down for a long time, sighed, and was about to shake the fan again, but Xu is hand was loosened, and the fan fell to the ground. Ouyang Zhen frowned and wanted to bend down to pick it up, but his belly was a little big after five months, and he couldn't reach it. Ouyang Zhen turned sideways a few times, but he couldn't pick it up, and he was so hot that he was drenched in sweat.
She was slightly annoyed, snorted, and looked up to call someone. Suddenly, I saw Chu Huotian standing at the door, looking like he wanted to laugh and held back.
Ouyang Zhen's face slammed to the ground, and all of a sudden turned red. Turning around, he sneered slightly: "Why didn't the emperor call someone to report when he came over." Standing aside for no reason to watch the jokes of the concubines. ”
Chu Huotian laughed, bent down to pick up the fan and handed it to her. Ouyang Zhen snorted and slapped it off: "Don't be a concubine, I hate it!" Chu Huotian saw that she was childish, and a coquettish look appeared on her beautiful face, and her heart moved.
So he sat beside her, gently hugged her and kissed her. Ouyang Zhen was embarrassed by his kiss, so he had to blush and snuggle in his arms.
Chu Huotian touched her Rouyi, and the slender hands in the past were now round like jade shoots.
Ouyang Zhen saw that his expression was relaxed, and there was no coldness on his handsome face, just staring at her hand. couldn't help laughing: "The emperor is very happy today? ”
Chu Huotian was in a very good mood today, and he heard reports from various prefectures and counties that the grain harvest in the first quarter of this year had already been harvested, and because of his policy of lightly dispensing with the people and providing the people with little endowment, all localities had gradually recovered from the heavy wars of the previous dynasty, and they could already see the signs of prosperity.
The children of the poor families he promoted were also angry, whether they were delegated to the local government or those who were officials in Beijing, they were all trembling and did not dare to slack off on government affairs.
It was only at this time that Chu Huotian was slightly freed from the thin ice that had just started in the first dynasty, and he was able to steal half a moment of leisure.
He pondered in his heart, Ouyang Zhen saw that he didn't answer, and he didn't ask anymore, but only drew in circles on his hands. His hands were not delicate, and there were subtle knife wounds on his palms, as well as a ring of hard calluses that had been strangled by the reins at the tiger's mouth.
He's a man who came out of the knife. Ouyang Zhen's heart suddenly tightened, and he couldn't help but think of a few sword scars on his body.
Ouyang Zhen smiled and leaned against his chest, only quietly speaking.
Suddenly, Chu Huotian asked, "I just came in, what did I see you sighing for?" But what's the hard part? His voice was hoarse, with a slight weariness after passion.
Ouyang Zhen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered Lin's haggard face, and suddenly felt sour in his heart: "The concubine went to see Sister Wanfei in the morning." The second prince seems to have been sick recently. ”
Chu Huotian sighed: "Yes, I have also heard about it. I don't know if it's too small to get sick easily. There was a trace of sorrow in his handsome eyebrows, although it was extremely light, but Ouyang Zhen also saw it.
She wanted to speak again and again, wanting to express her suspicions, but in the end she simply said: "The emperor can go and see again?" Sister Wan may be looking forward to the emperor. ”
After speaking, he was also stunned, and a faint sourness surged in his heart.
Guys!
Chu Huotian frowned twice, and said lightly: "I'll take a look tomorrow." So you're worried about this. He laughed to himself. He failed to be the father of the emperor, and he was not as concerned as Ouyang Zhen, who had no blood relationship.
Ouyang Zhen also pressed the guess in his heart. The two lay down for a while, and Li Jing got a little closer to the door and asked, "Is the emperor going to get up for lunch?" ”
Ouyang Zhen heard this, and hurriedly got up, waited for him to change his clothes, and ordered the palace people outside to come in and serve. Chu Huotian comforted her with kind words: "The Lin family is timid, you have time to accompany her more." ”
Ouyang Zhen received the order, had lunch with him, and then sent him out of the palace.
Dexuan went out for a long time and came back and said, "Back to Niangniang, I didn't see anything abnormal about the nurse. Maybe I'll just stare at it for a while. ”
Ouyang Zhen heard this: "Can she be with everyone when she eats?" ”
Dexuan turned back and asked, "I heard that she has a bad appetite recently." Meals are rarely eaten with other palace people, and they are all brought into their own rooms to eat. Could it be that the mother is suspicious of her......"
Ouyang Zhen nodded, and said with a hint of coldness: "That's natural, if it weren't for her different expression, this palace wouldn't be able to suspect her." ”
Dexuan nodded, and Ouyang Zhen instructed him to continue to star, and then told him to go down.
Wan Hui came in, brought a fruit plate on a silver plate, and saw Ouyang Zhen contemplating carefully, and couldn't help complaining: "Niangniang is too worried, in case nothing happens, people still say that Niangniang is nosy." ”
Ouyang Zhen looked at Wan Hui's worried face and said with a smile: "Anything can happen in the palace, auntie, don't underestimate it, this will kill you." The second prince is so small. ”
Wan Hui sighed, forked a piece of pulp with a silver fork and handed it to her, shook her head, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang is really not worrying, the emperor doesn't have to worry about Niangniang." ”
Ouyang Zhen smiled, so he didn't say more.
……
After three or four days, the Lin family sent someone to invite Ouyang Zhen again. Ouyang Zhen chose one morning when the weather was not hot, and took the shoulder to pass.
When I arrived at the "Huanbi Palace", I saw that the palace door was closed, Wan Hui stepped forward and knocked on the door, and then the palace people opened the door with a nervous face.
Before Ouyang Zhen arrived at the outer hall, he heard Lin's low angry scolding.
She felt a sudden burst in her heart and took Wan Hui's arm in. I saw that the nurse whom Ouyang Zhen suspected was kneeling in the hall, and there was a staff attendant standing next to her.
Ouyang Zhen took a closer look, and the attendant holding the staff was not from the Internal Punishment Division. The Lin family actually used the punishment for themselves?!
When Lin saw her coming, he said angrily to the nurse who was kneeling on the ground: "When this palace finds evidence, I will ask you to quibble!" After Lin finished speaking, he pulled Ouyang Zhen into the inner room.
Ouyang Zhen saw that the second prince was sleeping peacefully inside, and said with a smile: "What's wrong with Sister Lin?" See her exposed? Lin snorted, changed his color of gratitude and said to Ouyang Zhen: "If it weren't for my sister, my son wouldn't know how much he would have to suffer." In the past few days, I listened to my sister's words and didn't let her get close to my child, and sure enough, the second prince didn't spit up milk or diarrhea. Isn't this what she's doing in secret? ”
Ouyang Zhen nodded when he heard this: "That's fine, beat her up, say that she is not well taken care of, just drive her out of the palace." The more involved, the bigger it will be. ”
Lin didn't comply, but still had an angry face: "You should always know who is such a femme fatale." In my opinion, it is not enough to beat her to death. Not to mention the people behind it! ”
Ouyang Zhen patted the back of her hand and asked her to calm down: "Sister Lin didn't find her feet, how can she confess?" If she didn't bite to death, then Sister Lin wouldn't admit that she would kill her. Those who dare to bear such charges are bought. The evidence is not conclusive, and when the time comes, biting Sister Lin back and saying that it is an abuse of lynching, which is also a small crime. ”
Lin made a mistake. Ouyang Zhen pondered carefully: "In my opinion, there is something wrong with her milk." ”
Lin Shi was surprised: "How can there be a problem with the milk?" She can't poison herself first and then my son, can she? Ouyang Zhen smiled: "How could it not?" If what she eats is harmful, it is also very powerful for children who are five or six months old, and it will be effective at once. ”
Hearing this, Lin stood up: "Then I understand how to rectify her." When she had finished speaking, she turned around and ordered the nurse to squeeze the milk into the bowl, and sure enough, after a while, the milk sank into a layer of tiny black dots.
When the nurse saw that the matter was exposed, she repeatedly asked Lin to spare her life. Lin was furious and wanted to ask someone to beat her to death: "You slave! This palace is so good to you, you actually eat inside and out! Even if this palace kills you and arrives in front of the emperor, no one dares to intercede for you! ”
The nurse just cried. Ouyang Zhen stood up to her and said lightly: "How?" Won't you tell who that man is? How dare the nurse say it, she just looked at her and shook her head in embarrassment.
Ouyang Zhen looked at her for a while, dismissed everyone, and then asked in a low voice, "Is it the one who asked you to enter the palace?" The nurse nodded hurriedly. Ouyang Zhen sighed and said to the Lin family: "This is clear. ”
Lin was only full of resentment, glared at her a few times and said angrily: "You can avoid the death penalty and the living crime, you say, how many rods do you get?" The nurse just cried, only saying that she couldn't, and she didn't really want to harm the second prince.
Ouyang Zhen didn't interfere anymore, but only watched the Lin family order someone to come in and let her get thirty rods, until the blood on her back was blurred, and then she was driven out of the palace.
"Sister Ouyang, why did you say that person's heart is so vicious, and you can't prevent her means even if you can't prevent it." Lin was so angry that he cried, and only pulled her to chatter.
Thousands of precautions can't prevent that exquisite woman in all directions. Ouyang Zhen sighed in his heart, those nurses were all found by the Liu family at the beginning, and they should have thought that these nurses had problems.
Ouyang Zhen looked at the annoyance on her face, only slightly persuaded her, and then quietly returned to the palace. The more I thought about it on the way, the colder my heart became, and then I thought of the child in my womb, and I couldn't help but feel worried.
Let's take one step at a time...... She sighed softly, the days of this harem have never been peaceful.
