Chapter 97: Nightmare
This meal was eaten peacefully, several people didn't say anything superfluous, Mo Lingfeng was really hungry, and he didn't care about anything, while eating happily, he took care of Jiang Mengying, but Jiang Mengying always felt that the two people on the main seat were looking at him because he was worried about Mo Huaiyu's eyes just now, so he paid great attention to his words and deeds, and until the end, he didn't eat much, and most of the dishes Mo Lingfeng sandwiched for her were left.
When a few people finished lunch, and someone brought water to rinse their mouths and wash their hands, Mo Huaiyu threw the handkerchief that had wiped his hands aside, looked at the two people in front of him, and said, "You can walk around the palace by yourself, I am going back to take a nap, Concubine Xian, go back with me." ”
"Yes."
The two of them left, and Mo Lingfeng instantly felt that the air was a lot lighter, so he turned his head and asked Jiang Mengying: "Haven't you eaten enough?" Don't worry about my father and mother, come, let's eat slowly. ”
Mo Lingfeng picked up the dishes again as he spoke, but found that there was no place for Jiang Mengying's plate, so he could only get her a plate again.
Jiang Mengying lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking when she heard Mo Lingfeng call her, so she let out an "ah" as if she had just woken up from a dream, how did she feel just now that the emperor was looking at her with that strange look again? Is she thinking too much, or does the emperor have something to say to her?
No, it can't be, she just saw the emperor for the first time today, but what if?
After thinking about it, Jiang Mengying still smiled at Mo Lingfeng: "Lingfeng, I want to go to the toilet." ”
Mo Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: "I'll go with you." ”
"No need, I'll just go by myself, don't worry, I won't get lost." Jiang Mengying said and winked at Mo Lingfeng, Mo Lingfeng hadn't seen such a playful expression on Jiang Mengying's face for a long time, and he lost his mind for a while, and by the time he reacted, Jiang Mengying had already gone out.
Jiang Mengying walked out of it quickly, and walked a long way, only to see similar palaces everywhere, and the same stone roads everywhere, she only felt dizzy in front of her, and she didn't know where to go, so she could only slow down her pace and walk slowly, and after walking for a while, Su Yi suddenly didn't know where to come out, stretched out her hand to Jiang Mengying, and showed a very official smile, "Miss Jiang, the emperor is invited." ”
Jiang Mengying settled down, glad that she had come out with her, so she followed Su Yi to the gate of a palace, and when she entered, she saw the emperor who was supposed to be taking a nap sitting on a chair, staring at her, still with the kind of eyes that made her creepy, and before she knelt down to salute, she had already spoken: "I know everything about you." ”
Jiang Mengying's body shook, and the words he had thought of along the way had been forgotten in an instant.
Ding Weilan ran out of breath, and finally ran to the Xuanwang Mansion, seeing the towering plaque on it, Ding Weilan didn't even have the strength to knock on the door, so he could only lean against the door and gasp for breath, but before he could recover from it, he heard a familiar voice asking not far away: "May I ask if you see a girl, about this tall, very thin, with very white skin, big eyes, and wearing a crescent-colored dress." ”
Ding Weilan trembled carefully, and quickly shrunk herself, reducing her sense of existence, but the person who was asked was grinding and chirping, and it was not good to say that she didn't see it, but she also asked rhetorically: "What color is the crescent moon?" ”
Mo Lingyun scratched his head, how should he describe it?
When he was distressed, he suddenly saw a familiar color not far away crashing into his field of vision, so his eyes lit up, and he pointed to Ding Weilan and said, "It's her crescent color." ”
Feeling that the two realizations fell on his body in unison, Ding Weilan instantly wanted to find a place to get into, and for a long time, he only heard the person behind him say: "I didn't see it." ”
"Oh, thank you so much." Mo Lingyun said a word, turned around and left.
Ding Weilan breathed a sigh of relief, thank God, Mo Lingyun's IQ was not online at a critical time, hurry up and let her in, Ding Weilan didn't care if she was tired or not, she started knocking on the door, and after a while, a person inside opened the door, and when she saw that it was Ding Weilan, her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she saw a savior, and directly pulled people in.
On the other side, Mo Lingyun suddenly had a brain twitch halfway through, turned his head and began to run back, the figure just now was the third sister-in-law!
"Princess, why did you come back, our prince couldn't see you for a long time, he seemed to be angry, and he went back to his room to sleep without even eating, and now everyone doesn't dare to call the prince, and the cook doesn't dare to go into the kitchen to cook, all waiting for you to come back."
The guard who opened the door said while taking Ding Weilan in the direction of the kitchen, although he didn't know why the prince was angry, but this was a guest, and it was impossible for the prince to do anything to a guest, even the nighthawk was beaten out, and now the only one who can go to the prince's room to explore the truth is the unlucky princess Qi who went out and didn't look at the yellow calendar.
What's more, what he said was basically right, the prince was indeed angry after seeing that Princess Qi did not come back with the dishes.
Ding Weilan was originally a little bottomless when she was late, but now when she heard this kind of words, she wanted to retreat even more, but she had come here, and she could only do it hard, otherwise she would go against Mo Lingfeng's will and come to Uncle Huang privately, and the matter had not been done yet, it would be too embarrassing.
Ding Weilan was panicked in her heart, but she still maintained her calm on the surface. "Don't worry, since it's because of me, I will personally go to the prince's room to apologize later, and I will definitely make the prince angry."
"That's great." The guards were smiling.
Although he told Mo Huaining before that he could do it alone, but judging from the current scene, just cooking a dish can't hold the scene at all, anyway, now that Mo Huaining is not here, Ding Weilan directly and unceremoniously asked a few people to help.
But what made her strange was that the people who came were actually a group of muscular, more than 1.8 meters tall guards, not a single maid, even the cook they said before was also a rough-looking middle-aged muscular woman, a group of people automatically stood in a neat row as soon as they arrived in the kitchen, that is called a neat and uniform, seeing Ding Weilan, he directly picked up the big fist of the casserole, and the voice of the voice was simply magnificent. "Please command, Princess Qi!"
Ding Weilan saw such a scene for the first time, her feet slipped and she almost fell and ate, she wanted helpers, how could she find a group of thugs for her? This momentum is going to fight in a group.
Because he was too curious, Ding Weilan couldn't help but ask more in the process of cooking, and the answer was that when they just moved in, there were actually maids, but these people were arranged by the emperor, and some maids relied on this reason to have some ideas that should not have been, and the prince went back almost every night, and he would see something in the room that should not exist there, or people, after a long time, the prince ordered to send away the original subordinates in the palace, Only those he brought with him were left to serve here.
Ding Weilan let out an "oh" after hearing it, it turned out that it was because she looked too good and was scared by the maid.
"It's also strange to say, the prince seems to be very repulsive to women, even more so since those incidents, but he didn't react much when he saw you, princess."
"yes." One person brought it up, and the rest of the people also felt that something was wrong, could there be anything different about this princess, and for a while, curious eyes gathered on Ding Weilan's body like a spotlight.
Her subordinates paused, and suddenly remembered the time when Mo Huaining was drunk in the windy building, what did he say to reject women, he had never seen a woman at all, and his eyes were like a child seeing a new toy for the first time, no matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like the demeanor that a thirty-year-old man should have, saying that this Mo Huaining, has there never been a woman? Ding Weilan had a lot of gossip in her heart for a while, but it didn't affect the movements of her subordinates, she was heating the pot with oil and preparing to put shredded meat in, when the muscle cook suddenly shouted from the opposite side, "Princess, you can't do this, there is too little meat, and the prince doesn't like to eat it." ”
Without waiting for Ding Weilan's reaction, he threw the huge piece of meat he had just cut into the pot in the air, and suddenly saw a burst of white smoke coming out of the pot, and the fat and thin pieces of meat began to make a sizzling sound very excitedly.
Ding Weilan, who was just about to put some meat to season, was dumbfounded.
But the cook on the other side didn't feel anything wrong, and said with a sigh after doing this, "Our prince, I never like to eat vegetarian dishes, even if you make it in the end, it will be leftover, and it will make the prince unhappy, so we all make whole meat directly." ”
"Then how come there are so many vegetarian dishes here?" Ding Weilan pointed to a vegetable mountain behind him.
"It's because the meat has been eaten up by the prince, so the vegetarian dishes are left."
What kind of logic is this? Ding Weilan was a little dizzy, since she doesn't like to be a vegetarian, then don't buy it directly, just put it here and pile it up and don't eat it, it's a waste. And if you only eat meat and don't eat vegetables, your nutrition will be unbalanced.
Ding Weilan glanced back, and sure enough, she saw that many of the dishes behind her had wilted, she thought about it, and a bold idea suddenly appeared in her mind.
"Well, can you move the pot to the prince's yard?"
As far as the eye could see, there was a large area of darkness, only a little light illuminated the space in front of him, and he saw that he was wearing the satin gold-rimmed boots that all princes in the palace would wear, and the robe on his body was embroidered with a flying four-toed python, like all the other princes, but he felt that there was something different, the giant python opened its teeth and claws at him, which made him afraid.
A familiar voice came from not far away, calling his name softly, calling him "Ning'er", what a distant name, he followed the voice, but only saw a beautiful woman lying on the ground, her face pale, smiling sadly at him, telling him, "You have to live well, live better than everyone else." ”
Then a bunch of people came out of nowhere, put on white filial piety clothes for him, and the person who spoke to him gently was already gone, and his ears were crying one after another, and he couldn't hear the slightest sadness, only making him feel noisy and depressed.
He didn't shed a single tear, as if he could tell himself that everything in front of him was fake, and his mother didn't leave.
But it was all in vain, and he was alone after all.
And he didn't seem to be as she wished, he studied hard, practiced martial arts, but still couldn't get the favor of his father, his brothers and sisters all put on a hypocritical smile at him, secretly called him "the child of a lowly prostitute", he watched them become tall and strong, and he seemed to be forever so weak, and finally one of the people he called his brother, the python pattern on his robe was replaced with a dragon pattern, he raised his hand and pointed, many eyes fell on his body, he was taken by a group of people and left the palace where he lived for more than ten years, At that time, it was clear to him that he no longer belonged here, and everything here had nothing to do with him.
