However, Cangxi still doted and said: "Okay, tomorrow's fourth watch, this king will call you to get up!" β
Fu Ci was a little stunned when he heard that he was about to get up at the fourth watch, but this request was raised by himself, so he was embarrassed to say no, so he had to happily respond.
"Gui Yu, go to the kitchen for the princess to make a plate of milky white grapes." Cangxi commanded.
This mouthful, Fu Ci thought for a long time. But he didn't mention it to Cangxi when he was pretending to be sick, but he didn't expect him to remember.
Cangxi and Fu Ci are very affectionate, and the master in the prince's mansion is also very happy to hear that this matter is buckled on the head of the water bandits.
This incident is attributed to Fu Qingman, but Zhou Ze has no time to share this joy with Fu Qingman at this moment.
"How's the Song family?" Zhou asked.
Zhou Bing shook his head, shook his hand and said, "I'm afraid it's not good." β
Zhou Bing looked at Zhou Ze's face when he said this, and he clearly saw that Zhou Ze's face sank, so he lowered his voice as low as possible and said, "The imperial doctor said that the Song family will not live for more than a year. β
Hearing this, Zhou Ze was silent for a long time.
Song Qingyue was originally a ladder for him to climb up to Prime Minister Song. Zhou Ze himself didn't expect that now he would regard Song Qingyue as so important.
"Lone wants to save her, at any cost."
Zhou Ze said this, and Zhou Bing couldn't say anything more. He has been following his master for twenty-two years, and he has never seen Zhou Ze so attentive to any woman except for Situ. Even Fu Qingman, who was pregnant with twin sons and offered a military talisman, had never received such care from Zhou Ze.
Zhou Bing was a little emotional. It seems that feelings are really not rewarded if you pay more.
Take Fu Qingman as an example, in order to marry his master, he did not hesitate to frame his sister-in-law. After getting married, she also presented the talisman left by General Chen to her mother. Now that she is pregnant with twin sons in her womb, she still gives advice to Zhou Ze, but she is not as good as Situ's smile to provoke the prince's pity.
Situ Miaojing and Zhou are a couple in distress, and Fu Qingman is just as it should be. But now, Fu Qingman, who is beautiful on the surface, is actually not as favored as Song Qingyue, who only has the title of concubine.
Zhou Bing didn't know what Song Qingyue had in Zhou Ze's heart, in short, it should not be comparable to Situ's. But Zhou Bing knew very well that Fu Qingman was just a move in Zhou Ze's hands.
But a woman in love will always be carried away, just like Fu Qingman, who is now willing to eat.
With her intelligence, if she is a little sober, how can she not see that Zhou Ze is a disaster for Begonia Tower?
Fu Qingman's favor overpowered Situ Miaojing, which of the prince's concubines would come to calculate Situ's family? I'm afraid all eyes are fixed on Fu Qingman's belly, right?
Thinking like this, Zhou Bing watched his master walk in the direction of Huayue Tower in the rain.
It seems that this Song beauty has a lot of weight in Zhou Ze's heart.
Fu Ci was dragged by Cangxi for several days to get up early and exercise in the morning.
It is said to be a morning exercise, but in fact, only Cangxi is the one who dances and swords to exercise.
Every day on the fourth watch, Cangxi shouted Fu Ci to get up on time, even if it was rainy and cloudy. But generally speaking, most of the time Cangxi is dancing the sword, and Fu Ci is applauding with fruits and snacks on the side.
Today, as always.
Cangxi dragged Fu Ci to the courtyard, and Fu Ci sat on the rattan chair as usual, looking at Cangxi holding Chengying in his hand, and his heroic appearance. Fu Ci was looking at his origin, but he was forcibly pulled back by the hot current.
"Ahh
Cangxi inquired and flew into the air and asked, "Are you hurt?" β
Fu Ci shook his head and wiped the water stains on his clothes. It's a good pot of hot tea, but it's a pity that it's all spilled on her now.
After seeing that Fu Ci was fine, Cangxi noticed that the person kneeling on the ground was begging for mercy.
"What's it called? Where is the errand? Cangxi asked.
The little maid buried her head even lower, and said timidly, "Slave Wang Xiaoxiao, in the kitchen." Fang Caicang's guard sent someone to the kitchen to say that the princess wanted to drink hot tea, and the slave maid boiled tea and brought it over. But I don't want to ......", the maid buried her head a little more, and didn't say any more.
It rained a few days ago, and Cangxi was afraid that Fu Ci would freeze, so he ordered the kitchen to boil hot tea and bring it up to Fu Ci to drink. However, the weather was warm today, and what I ordered to prepare for Fu Ci was flower tea, not hot tea.
"That's not honest," Cang Xi said, putting his sword into the scabbard.
When Wang Xiaoxiao heard this, his body was obviously stiff. Then he raised his head and said in a low voice: "The slave heard that the prince practiced swords here every day, and she was confused for a while before she thought about coming to see ......."
The latter words, Cangxi doesn't need to listen to it to know. It's nothing more than that he was stunned for a moment when he saw himself practicing swords, and he unintentionally spilled tea on the princess. Such a vulgar excuse was used by some people in the palace in the past, but I didn't expect that the people in his Xiwang Mansion were also accustomed to using such vulgar reasons.
Cangxi didn't interrupt, and listened to Wang Xiaowan, which was exactly what he guessed.
Listening to Wang Xiaowan, the first person to react was not Cangxi but Fu Ci, only to see Fu Ci stand up, pick up Wang Xiaoxiao's chin, and say softly: "It looks good." β
When Wang Xiaoxiao heard Fu Ci say this, she hurriedly lowered her head and begged for mercy: "The slave and maid don't think about it, please let the princess know it!" β
Fu Ci sneered. Before she could say anything, this little girl was in a hurry to clarify, there must be a ghost in her heart!
"This princess didn't say that you had any wrong thoughts about the prince, and you didn't want to recruit yourself."
Wang Xiaoxiao saw that she had said the wrong thing, so she hurriedly begged for mercy and said: "The slave maid said the wrong thing in a hurry, please forgive the princess." β
Fu Ci didn't speak again, waiting for Cangxi to fall.
Cangxi could see that his wife was now soaked in the vinegar jar, so he said, "Go to the miscellaneous warehouse to receive the punishment." β
After Wang Xiaoxiao heard this, tears fell but she didn't dare to beg for mercy. Who doesn't know in this palace of the princess Xi, the femme fatale of Princess Xi? Even if Wang Xiaoxiao is wronged, he does not dare to disobey Cangxi and Fu Porcelain.
Looking at the back of Wang Xiaoxiao leaving, Fu Ci asked, "Do you know this little girl?" β
Cangxi nodded and said, "She is a maid who was rescued by the fourth child on the side of the road two years ago. β
"It turned out to be the prince's old acquaintance", Fu Ci poured a cup of tea and said, "Although it is a slave, it is a beauty." Why don't you take her as a side concubine? β
Seeing Fu Ci soaked in the vinegar jar, Cangxi suddenly became teased, and continued with Fu Ci's words, "The princess is beautiful." It's just that she is a slave, and if this king treats her as a side concubine, he will inevitably promote her. β
"You-", Fu Ci raised his hand and was about to hit Cangxi, but he was unexpectedly dragged into Cangxi's arms.
Fu Ci blushed and wanted to struggle, Cangxi lowered her head and whispered in Fu Ci's ear: "The princess looks so cute when she is jealous." β
Hearing Cangxi's words, Fu Ci only elbowed at Cangxi's chest.
Seeing that Fu Ci was really angry, Cangxi lowered his head and kissed Fu Ci's lips. Fu Ci was still struggling, but Cangxi's kiss made Fu Ci a lot quieter. Cangxi pried open Fu Ci's teeth and deepened the kiss. Fu Ci bit Cangxi's lip twice with a slight punishment.
It wasn't until Fu Ci was a little out of breath that Cangxi let go of Fu Ci, smiled as if he was greedy for half of the sky's cheapest, and asked, "Is this enough?" β
Fu Ci wanted to say that it was not enough, but when she thought that Cangxi had tossed her for a long time last night, her waist was still sore, so she turned around and entered the bedroom.
Cangxi followed, looking at Fu Ci leisurely sipping tea on the chair, Cangxi breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "That slave just now was Zhou Ze's eyeliner." β
Fu Ci was stunned, and the movements in his hands also paused. But she still adjusted her mentality as quickly as she could, handed a cup of kung fu tea to Cangxi's hand, and said softly: "How can you see it?" β
"The kitchen has a wall that leads to the outside world, and on that wall, there is a brick that is moving." Cangxi said.
Fu Ci said disapprerovingly: "Just one brick convicts this beauty, the prince is too hasty." β
Cangxi saw that Fu Ci was still steaming with vinegar, and he really had a headache. It's not that I'm tired of Fu Ci's daughters' little tempers, but Cangxi really can't coax.
In the past, he only knew that Fu Ci was a resourceful woman, but he didn't know that she also had a tasteful side.
Such Fu porcelain is really cute!
"Porcelain", Cangxi squatted in front of Fu Ci, dragging the corner of Fu Ci's clothes in his hand.
Fu Ci couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect the dignified prince to have such a coquettish time.
Seeing Fu Ci smiling, Cangxi hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said, "If you laugh, you won't be angry with this king." β
This nerd.
When did you ever get angry with him?
"Since the prince knows that she is a person of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, just kill her." Fu Ci said.
Cangxi shook his head and said, "She is not a slave, if this king kills her, he will violate the law of Chengzhou." β
Don't talk about the rest of Cangxi, Fu Ci also understands.
Wang Xiaoxiao, Cangxi can't be killed.
There is a law in Chengzhou, which says that if the master kills a non-slave servant indiscriminately, he should pay for his life according to the law.
Non-slave servants enjoyed all the same legal protections as the freedmen in Chengzhou.
It seems that Zhou Ze had long expected that there would be a day when Cangxi would be discovered. deliberately chose a person who was not a slave to come to the Xiwang Mansion. In this way, Cangxi can't be left behind, and can't be killed.
Zhou Ze's step is really wonderful.
"The prince will have a reason to kill her in a while", saying that, Fu Ci took off a hairpin from his head, and was about to attack his arm, but Cangxi quickly stopped her and exclaimed: "What are you going to do?" β
"Wang Xiaoxiaoxiao", as he spoke, Fu Ci broke free from Cangxi's hand.
"The princess's skin is for the king to see, and it must not be hurt." As he spoke, Cangxi was about to snatch the hairpin from Fu Ci's hand.
The golden hairpin was not drawn on Cangxi's arm in the end.
A big man who practices martial arts injured a little woman who doesn't know martial arts, and no one will believe it when she says it.
Cangxi watched Fu Ci make a cut of more than ten centimeters on his arm, and red blood trickled out, Cangxi hurriedly took a handkerchief and pressed Fu Ci's wound.
Fu Ci smiled at Cangxi, and then shouted outside the door: "Catch the murderer, catch the murderer!" β
Cang'er was the first to hear the voice and rushed over, looking at Fu Ci, who was bleeding non-stop, Cang'er was dumbfounded. Seeing that Cang Er was stunned on the spot, Cang Xi hurriedly urged: "Quickly arrest Wang Xiaoxiao." β
Cang Er reacted, and walked out of the Wutong Hall with his sword.
Cangxi hurriedly found a bandage to stop the bleeding for Fu Ci.
"The wound is too deep, I have to find a doctor to take a look." Cangxi said.
How can this matter alarm the Imperial Doctor?
The people raised in the Tai Hospital do not eat dry food, as long as the injury is checked, it is known that it is self-injury. In order to avoid causing trouble in the future, Fu Ci still pressed Cangxi's hand and said, "This matter should not alarm the imperial doctor." β
Cangxi was not at ease, and wanted to say something, but was robbed by Fu Ci, "Aunt Xiangluo has been fighting with her grandmother for many years, and she will definitely bandage her wounds." β
Cangxi nodded, and immediately found Xiangluo.
Xiangluo gave Fu Ci some anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving medicine, and wrapped a layer of bandages. After wrapping up, Xiangluo said to Fu Ci while packing up her things: "Sometimes, it's better for the princess not to live too clearly. Fu Ci nodded, took the injured arm to the side, and Xiang Luo instructed again: "The princess must know, sometimes if you live too well, you will be smart and be mistaken by smart." β
"Thank you aunt for reminding me", Fu Ci bowed slightly, and Cangxi also waved his hand to Xiangluo on the side, "I have to bother my aunt to change the medicine for Porcelain these days." β
Xiangluo smiled, "The old lady asked the slave maid to serve the princess, these are the duties of the slave maid. Then, Xiangluo said to Fu Ci again: "In the past few days, the princess's injured arm should not be vigorously moved, let alone see water. β
Fu Ci nodded in response, and Xiangluo bowed and exited the room. At the same time as the assassination, Cang'er sent Wang Xiaoxiao to the Wutong Palace, knelt down and said: "The murderer, his subordinates have been caught." Please also ask the prince and princess to make a decision. β
Cang Xi motioned for Cang Er to get up first, and then stared at Wang Xiaodao: "Who asked you to murder Princess Xi?" β
Wang Xiaoxiao knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously, "The prince spares his life, the prince spares his life, and the slave and maid dare not harm the princess even if they are so daring!" β
For a little girl who has never seen the world, Cangxi's words will undoubtedly scare her. But for Wang Xiaoxiao, Cangxi never believed that this person would be so afraid.
How to say, Wang Xiaoxiao has been the prince of Xiwangfu for two years. I don't have the guts, I definitely won't be picked out by Cang'er for so long.
Cangxi still wanted to grab Zhou Ze's handle from Wang Xiaoxiao, but he didn't allow him to ask. Inadvertently, Wang Xiaoxiao had already crashed into the pillar next to him, Cang Er wanted to stop it, but he was still a step too late.
Cang Er looked at Wang Xiaoxiao's corpse in front of the three of them, and regretted in his heart why he didn't take a step forward to save her?
"The subordinates are incompetent, and I ask the prince to punish the crime." Cang Er knelt down and said.
Fu Ci walked into Wang Xiaoxiao's side, looked at this beauty carefully, and said to Cangxi: "The prince doesn't have to blame Cang'er, she took poison before she came." Even if you don't die, you won't survive for three moments. β
This is broken with the clue, which Cangxi is reluctant to see. But after thinking about it, wasn't his original purpose to kill Wang Xiaoxiao? Thinking of this, Cangxi was also a little relieved, but he always felt that he owed Fu Ci a lot in his heart.
"Throw this slave who murdered the princess to the mass grave, and no one is allowed to collect her body", without waiting for Cangxi to speak, Fu Ci gave an order.
Cang Er glanced at Cang Xi, and Cang Xi nodded: "Just do what the princess said." β
After receiving the order, Cang Er immediately carried Wang Xiaoxiao's body out of the Wutong Hall and walked in the direction of the mass grave outside the palace.
The so-called "mass grave" is where the corpses of the lowest slaves of the royal family finally belong. Most of the slaves who were brought here were killed in vain or killed, but the same cannot be said before men.
It didn't take long for Zhou Bing to enter the door of Huayue Tower and whisper a few words in Zhou Ze's ear.
Zhou Ze's expression became a little strange after hearing the news, and Song Qingyue took in the changes in Zhou Ze's face on the side.
"Let's go down", Zhou Ze ordered lightly, and then looked at the chessboard in a daze.
Song Qingyue added tea for Zhou Ze, and said softly: "Your Highness, it's your turn." β
Zhou Ze realized that he should settle down by himself, but now he has no interest, so what kind of game can he talk about?
"Come to Lone's side," Zhou commanded.
Song Qingyue got up and came to Zhou Ze's side, and Zhou Ze reached out and hugged Song Qingyue so that Song Qingyue sat on his lap.
"You don't even ask what Zhou Bing said?" Zhou asked.
Song Qingyue curled her lips and smiled, and said softly: "If Your Highness wants to tell the slave maid, it will naturally say." β
Zhou Ze heard this, and the haze in his heart was swept away a little. He doesn't like women who are too smart, but he doesn't like women who are too stupid. Like Song Qingyue, a person who understands etiquette and knows advance and retreat can be called a confidant in Zhou Ze's heart.
"In the future, you are not allowed to call yourself a slave and maid," Zhou Ze pinched Song Qingyue's little face and said.
Song Qingyue was puzzled, what did the concubine call herself a slave and a maid?
"Lone will go and let Zhou Bingzhi Situ Liangdi say, and you will be a good yuan."
When Song Qingyue heard this, she quickly broke free from Zhou Ze's arms, knelt down and said, "Your Highness, absolutely not." β
Her father Song Lian, in order to ensure her safety in the prince's mansion, deliberately let her follow Zhou Ze as a concubine, but now the prince said that he wanted her to be a good woman, so all his father's plans were not in vain
"Why not?" Zhou asked.
Song Qingyue didn't intend to hide it from Zhou Ze, so she said: "Father hopes that Qingyue will not attract jealousy, so he specially asked for the slave maid to serve His Royal Highness as a concubine......" Song Qingyue didn't say the latter words.
Besides, she's stupid. The Prince's Mansion is now on the surface, Fu Qingman is dominant, she can't see this matter too clearly, and she can't explain it clearly to Zhou Ze.
Zhou Ze smiled bitterly.
Is this girl really so naΓ―ve?
