Chapter 40: Forced Intervention

"In that case, the courtier will take her leave first." The princess raised her head and smiled dignifiedly, seeing that the queen had already begun to divide the little eunuch beside her, she took the opportunity to pass by the flower bed on the side, intending to return to the palace.

But I didn't expect that just after turning a gardenia tree, I saw the Countess and Su Jiao in the back.

"Uh," the princess was surprised, but in order not to attract the attention of the queen, she endured it and quietly took the countess and Su Jiao away before speaking.

"Mother, why are you eavesdropping here? If it is discovered by the queen's mother, what is good? ”

"Don't tell me this yet, Yun'er, I heard a little strange what you said to the queen just now, but what happened over there in Yuge?"

It's okay that the countess didn't ask, but as soon as she heard this, Luo Chaoyun, the princess of Yong'an, was immediately filled with righteous indignation.

"Mother guessed right, I shouldn't have let Uncle Shi and them agree to this family affair in the first place, today Yuge has just married into the prince's mansion, and the third prince neither set up a banquet nor went to see her, but looked for any medicinal materials for his concubine in the treasury."

Saying that, Luo Chaoyun patted his chest to let himself take a breath first, and then continued, "Xianggong is also angry, so he quietly sent someone into the palace to say, otherwise I am afraid that Yuge will have to cover up for the third prince in the future and not let us know." ”

"What?!" Fortunately, as soon as Luo Chaoyun mentioned the medicinal materials, Su Jiao instantly remembered the request made by Master Su come to find him when he went home that day.

When the words landed, the countess and Luo Chaoyun were puzzled, Su Jiao pursed her lips and hesitated to tell the truth.

"Su Lian is just suffering from a little problem such as wind and cold because of heart disease, so she needs Snow Lotus to regulate her body, but Snow Lotus is not good during this time, and the third prince can't wait to search for Yuge's dowry,"

As soon as these words came out, Luo Chaoyun frowned deeply, and the countess was almost about to faint, Su Jiao hurriedly supported her, and turned her eyes to comfort.

"But the three princes got the snow lotus, maybe they can be better to Yuge with their kindness, even if Yuge may not be able to get the favor of the three princes in the future, it is not bad to be able to live a stable life."

Hearing this, Luo Chaoyun also helped persuade beside him, "Mother, what Mrs. Xiao said is very true, since it is the decision of the queen's mother, the family affairs cannot be canceled, so we can help you, at least don't let Sister Yuge be wronged in vain in the prince's mansion." ”

The countess shook her head, as if the wine had just come to her head, making her a little untenable, "You are still young, I don't understand, how can things be so simple, but now I can only see what the third prince means, I hope he can still have a little conscience." ”

Su Jiao helped the countess, and at first she also thought that it should be a good idea to persuade Zhang Yuge to be self-reliant and not care about Xu Rulie's affairs, but listening to the countess's words, it didn't seem to be the case.

Could it be, but I really thought it wrong?

On the other side, the queen was already furious, but fortunately she was not embarrassed in front of so many people. She was angry, directly sent someone out of the palace, and gave Xu Rulie a death order, but at this time, Xu Rulie was still in Su Lian's courtyard.

"Li'er, after taking this snow lotus medicine, how do you feel now. There is still half of it left, and I want to ask someone to make a medicinal diet tomorrow and recuperate carefully, and within a few days, you will be able to recover. ”

In order not to let Su Lian know about marrying today, Xu Rulie deliberately blocked this courtyard and ordered everyone to keep their mouths shut and not say much.

And because Zhang Yuge's sedan chair entered the house, he didn't even set off firecrackers, so Su Lian was completely in the dark and didn't know what was going on outside.

Su Lian sat on the bed, her body next to her was soft and boneless, snuggled in Xu Rulie's chest, and her complexion looked better, but her eyes were still faintly flickering with tears.

"The concubine body is already very good, but for the sake of the concubine, Your Highness is afraid that she has traveled to many places to find such a snow lotus, Your Highness has worked really hard, what should the concubine take to repay you."

"As long as you take care of your body, even if it is the greatest reward for me, you can relax, we still have many days to go, and I will never break my promise to you."

Xu Rulie heard that Su Lian's breath was much smoother than a few days ago, and a big stone in his heart could be regarded as falling to the ground.

He stretched out his hand and gently held Su Lian's hand, the two of them are you and me, but they don't want to have a fierce old woman, and they broke in with a group of people.

"Presumptuous, this is the mansion of His Royal Highness, you dare to go on such a rampage, what kind of person is it, don't hurry up and get out of here!"

Xu Rulie was stunned for a moment, especially when these people came in and the wind blew in Su Lianzhi coughed, he was angry for a while, put the person back on the bed in a good manner, and then stood up and scolded angrily.

However, Xu Rulie's order was given, but no one in the courtyard dared to come up to stop it, and the old lady looked straight back with her head held high.

"Back to the three princes, the slaves and maids are all sent by the queen to raise the grandmother, today's big day, the three princes let the concubine ignore it, but came to the courtyard of the concubine, it is really inappropriate, the queen has an order, ask the slave and the maid to invite the three princes back to the cave room."

"W-What?!" Su Lian was taken aback, and couldn't suppress the bitterness in her heart, and coughed loudly as she lay on the side of the bed.

Su Lian's room is not big, there is silence at the moment, and the sound of Su Lian's cough lingers in Xu Rulie's ears like an echo, and the more she coughs, the more she coughs, the more she seems to be able to hear the sound of chest vibration.

Xu Rulie was distressed, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull the quilt and cover Su Lian's body. "Don't be excited, what if you spit out the medicine you just drank, don't worry, I will accompany you today, I won't go anywhere."

"Your Highness doesn't have to be like this, since it is the order of the Queen Mother, why does Your Highness bother against the Queen Mother? Let's go, the concubine will never dare to delay His Highness's good day. ”

Drinking the water fed by Xu Rulie, Su Lian barely moistened her throat, and when she came back to her senses, she grabbed Xu Rulie's sleeve and burst into tears.

Xu Rulie hesitated, really didn't know how to appease her, and the old lady looked at Su Lian's clenched right hand, and frowned deeply.

"Your Royal Highness, what does the queen mean, if the concubine seduces you, the queen is afraid that she will come over to cook in person. However, since Aunt Su can understand the righteousness so well, why didn't Her Royal Highness follow her wishes, and save the queen from blaming. ”

"How dare you threaten Your Highness!" Su Lian coughed and shed tears on the bed, and there were old grandmother's old-fashioned words behind her, and Xu Rulie was almost two big heads.

The old lady is neither humble nor arrogant, "The slave and maid don't dare, the slave and maid are just acting on orders, and please ask Your Highness to think about it yourself." ”

"You," Xu Rulie wanted to take care of this group of old ladies in person, but he was afraid that the queen would really be angry with Su Lian, so in desperation, he had to ease his attitude.

"It's good to let His Highness personally watch Li'er drink the tranquilizer."

"Yes, the slaves and maids are waiting outside the courtyard gate for Your Highness." Hearing this, the old lady also took a step back.

Xu Rulie was finally able to get a moment of peace, he took the tranquilizer sent by Qing Yi, personally helped Su Lian to get up, and fed him spoonful by spoonful.

"This is a tranquilizer prescribed by the imperial doctor in the palace, your body is not good to drink, just sleep peacefully."

"The concubine doesn't want to drink," Xu Rulie's medicine spoon was brought to her mouth, but Su Lian closed her eyes tightly, her eyes were only a little better this afternoon, and now she was slightly swollen because she cried too much.

"The concubine wants to look at His Highness, but she doesn't want His Highness to be embarrassed. Whether the concubine is or not has become a big trouble for His Highness. ”

"Nonsense, even if there is trouble, it is inflicted by others, what does it have to do with you. You just have to drink this medicine, get a good night's sleep, and wake up tomorrow, absolutely nothing will happen. ”

Xu Rulie interrupted Su Lian's words, and wiped the tears from her face while giving her medicine.

"But Concubine Zheng's side ......" drank about half a bowl, Su Lian still had something to say, so she quietly fell asleep.

Xu Rulie breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and after asking Qingyi to settle her down, as soon as he went out, he saw the group of terrible old women, still stubbornly standing at the door.

"Let's go." Xu Rulie barely suppressed the anger in his heart, and the old lady wanted to come up and tie the groom's red ribbon flowers for him, but he immediately pulled it aside.

The old lady couldn't, and a group of people escorted him to the cave room, and after a series of procedures in the cave room, everyone withdrew.

Xu Rulie wanted to wait for everyone to disperse before coming out, but unexpectedly, the old lady asked someone to seal the doors and windows.

"You bastards, presumptuous, dare to put our store under house arrest here!"

"Third Highness, don't be angry, this is the meaning of the queen mother, in order to ensure that the third highness stays in the cave room tonight, there will be three groups of guards outside the door on duty in shifts, if the third highness insists on going out, then the queen mother can only talk to Aunt Su."

After that, not listening to Xu Rulie's angry curses behind the door, the old lady ordered everyone to guard their posts, and several old people also took turns to stay in the other rooms in the courtyard.

Xu Rulie scolded, and realized that no one really paid attention to it, he had nothing to do, and planned to turn around and rest for a while, when he saw Zhang Yuge sitting on the edge of the bed with a red hijab.

"Hello, hello, you have learned to sue before you enter the door, if you really let you enter the courtyard of His Royal Highness in the future, you will really turn the sky upside down."

When the words landed, Zhang Yuge did not rush to refute, but looked at Xu Rulie sitting opposite through the gap in the hijab, "Your Highness, the courtiers are ordered to marry, and they are waiting for Your Highness here, and there is no chance to send someone out to complain." ”

"Heh, you don't have a chance, can't he do it to the son of Earl Yong'an who sent you a kiss?" Xu Rulie snorted coldly, he guessed well at this time.
