Chapter 270: The soft-hearted Prince Gong
There is no need to ask for the rest, Jiang Zuiyao has already guessed it.
Prince Gong's mother was made the crown prince during his reign, and finally lost the crown prince due to the death of his mother, and then the new monarch ascended the throne, canonized him as the prince, and sent him here.
"Girl, can you really help Your Highness?" , Su Su's words interrupted Jiang Zuiyao's train of thought, she probably knew what Su Su wanted to ask, but she still asked, "I don't know what Miss Su Su meant." ”
"I just heard from His Highness that you are here to help him." , Su Su replied lightly, thought about it, and said: "Your Highness is having a hard time now, I have been with His Highness for many years, and I know that he is wronged, so I hope you can help him." ”
Looking at Su Su's pure face, Jiang Zuiyao didn't know how to reply.
After listening to what Wuxian said, she probably knew that Shao Ziqing might really intend to help Prince Gong, but it was inevitably a little too risky to seek power and usurp the throne, but according to Shao Ziqing's temperament, she would definitely not help Prince Gong in vain, this was a transaction.
Jiang Zuiyao only knew the whole thing, so he didn't dare to say too much, but just smiled back.
Listening to the "whirring" wind outside, Jiang Zuiyao asked, "Is the weather in Qingguo so bad all year round?" ”
Su Su shook his head: "Only Your Highness is here with a lot of wind and sand." ”
Aunt Cui interjected angrily: "Your Majesty hates Your Highness, and sent Your Highness to this desolate place, I remember that when I first came, there were only two people around Your Highness, Su Su and me, and the court did not arrange anyone to serve Your Highness at all." ”
Su Su was also a little angry, but compared to Aunt Cui, she was not so excited, she just frowned and said: "The prince should be treated, and the court only gives half of it to His Highness, so that His Highness's life is very restrained." ”
Aunt Cui said excitedly: "It would be nice if this half could be taken into your hands, and the court will distribute it, and after the hands of corrupt officials in the middle, how much is left in the hands of His Royal Highness?" It's like the silver in the spring this year, and there is no news when it waits, and it must have been greedy by those dog officials. ”
"Then why didn't you report to the court?" , Jiang Zuiyao asked.
Su Su shook her head in frustration: "It's useless, it's not that I haven't reported it before, and the official family is either perfunctory or abandoned." ”
Jiang Zuiyao completely understood now, I am afraid that this whole thing was deliberately done by Emperor Qingguo, otherwise the prince's things, no matter how bold the corrupt officials are, they will not dare to act rashly.
At this moment, the door of the house was pushed open, and Prince Gong walked in, and when he saw Jiang Zuiyao sitting in the room with a good change of clean clothes, his face turned cold.
Jiang Zuiyao knew why he was displeased, she wanted to say something, but Su Su hurriedly got up and said, "Your Highness, I brought her out." ”
When Prince Gong heard this, his face immediately sank: "Who asked you to release her?" Are my words so thin in your eyes? ”
As a maid, Su Su was not afraid and frightened, but smiled warmly: "Your Highness, you have always been generous and merciful, you can't see her a weak woman locked up in that dark tower, right?" Hungry people don't eat all night, this is not hospitality. ”
Prince Gong was really not angry, and said with some helplessness: "It's their fault first." ”
Su Su still smiled and persuaded: "If a person is not a sage, why should His Highness make things difficult for a weak woman." ”
Aunt Cui on the side also echoed: "That is, you are a dignified prince, wouldn't this be a mouthful if it gets out?" If Your Highness is not at ease and is afraid that she will run away, the slave will watch her for you. ”
Prince Gong glanced at Aunt Cui, with a little helplessness: "You can even cook on weekdays, can I rest assured that I can hand over people to you?" ”
"Your Highness, don't look at the slave and maid cooking carelessly, the slave and maid can be serious in serious matters, don't worry, with me looking at this girl, she will definitely not be able to run." , Aunt Cui regarded Jiang Zuiyao as a weak woman, and she was so confident.
Seeing that Su Su and Aunt Cui said so many good things for themselves, Jiang Zuiyao spoke: "Your Royal Highness Prince Gong, I can assure you that I will not run away until you see the person you want to meet." ”
Prince Gong looked at her indifferently, it was the kind of intent, looking at Jiang Zuiyao in front of him, for a long time, his eyes were full of changes, as if he had found something.
This made Jiang Zuiyao feel a little uneasy, thinking that his appearance Prince Gong was not the first day he saw him, what was he looking at?
Su Su rarely saw Prince Gong look at anyone like this, for fear that he would not treat Jiang Zuiyao well, so he opened his mouth again: "Your Highness, you don't remember the villain, don't be like a girl's family, I will take care of her for you, okay?" ”
Su Su's voice made Prince Gong retract his gaze, whether he believed Jiang Zuiyao's words, or for Su Su's affection, he left without saying a word.
This made Jiang Zuiyao a little surprised, Prince Gong let her go like this?
Su Su looked at Jiang Zuiyao's incredulous appearance, and smiled at her: "Your Highness is kind-hearted and won't really make things difficult for you." ”
Aunt Cui also said: "Your Highness's ears are soft, and if you have a vegetarian to intercede with you, you will definitely not punish you again, but you yourself must not cause trouble again." ”
Everything started because of Wuxian, but Jiang Zuiyao didn't explain a word, just smiled and nodded.
Aunt Cui looked at the sky outside and said, "You guys talk first, I have to go and prepare dinner." ”
Aunt Cui left, and Su Su was the only one left in the house.
Just when Jiang Zuiyao didn't know what to say, Su Su opened her mouth and asked, "Where did the son who came with you go?" ”
It seems that Prince Gong did not tell Su Su everything. Since this is the case, Jiang Zuiyao will not talk too much, shook her head and pretended not to know: "I don't know either." ”
"You don't know? Aren't you all in this together? In the face of Su Su's questioning, Jiang Zuiyao replied perfunctorily: "I really don't know, you took me to the tower to see him that day, and Prince Gong came after a while, and after the two of them said a few words, he left." ”
Whether Su Su believed it or not, she didn't ask after all.
After looking at Jiang Zuiyao, he said, "You must be a person of noble origin, right?" ”
"Me?" , Jiang Zuiyao didn't know where Su Su's words came from, and asked, "Why did you say this?" ”
"Look at your slender jade hands, they are very white and tender, at first glance, they are subordinates, even ordinary people, they will not be so well maintained, and the appearance you give people is different."
"What's the difference?"
"I can't tell, huh...... I just don't dare to despise it, even if it's not from a noble background, it should be the master, right? ”
In the face of Su Su's questioning, Jiang Zuiyao just smiled perfunctorily and did not answer, and chatted about some inconsequential words.
