Chapter 827: Not afraid of rumors
"Then what were you doing in Chuxiu Palace yesterday?" When Mrs. Hou heard Jiang Yingliang's words, she also understood what was going on, and immediately asked in a hurry.
Jiang Yingli sighed: "Yesterday, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince and I did stay in Chuxiu Palace for a while, but he has been sorting out his own things, and then asked me to help, and there is nothing else." ”
Speaking of this, she looked aggrieved with a bitter face: "I don't understand why there are such rumors when I wake up, she pulled Mrs. Hou and said: "Mother, I really don't know." ”
Seeing that Jiang Yingliang's expression didn't look like he was lying, Mrs. Hou and Master Hou looked at each other, and their expressions were a little solemn: "It seems that this time the matter is directed and acted by the fourth prince, but why did he do this?" ”
Just when a few people were puzzled, there was a steady sound of footsteps outside, Jiang Yingli didn't notice it, until Mrs. Hou's surprised voice sounded: "Mu Yun, you're back." ”
Hearing Qiu Muyun's name, Jiang Yingli subconsciously raised her eyes and looked towards the door, and sure enough, she found that it was Qiu Muyun who was back, and the surprise that flashed in her eyes could not be concealed, and she happily walked to the door: "Why are you back?" ”
After saying this, Jiang Yingli noticed that the other party's face was a little bad, and suddenly she thought of the rumors in the capital today, she was weak-hearted, but more of a grievance, so she quickly explained.
"Have you heard any bad rumors, then I'm going to tell you, I really don't know."
After saying this, Jiang Yingli suddenly noticed Qiu Muyun's playful eyes, and immediately knew that she had been tricked, she pursed her lips, a little uncomfortable, and a little disgusted.
didn't care that Mrs. Hou and Master Hou were still there, and reached out and poked Qiu Muyun's chest: "Why are you looking at me like this?" Isn't it fun to see that I'm in a hurry here? ”
Qiu Muyun smiled and stretched out his hand to restrain Jiang Yinglian's wrist, and then said in a meaningful tone: "I am naturally happy to see you, it's just some false rumors, you are so anxious, aren't you worried that I will be jealous." ”
Hearing him say this, Jiang Yingli rolled his eyes, the heaviness in his heart suddenly dissipated, he withdrew his hand with a pout, and glared at Qiu Muyun in shame: "You will play me, you will play me, I will ignore you." ”
Jiang Yingli stomped her feet, turned her back to Qiu Muyun, and looked embarrassed, but when she turned her head and saw that Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou were still there, her face turned red.
Mrs. Hou and Hou Ye looked at each other, both of them stood up a little embarrassed, Hou Ye coughed and said: "Okay, since it is a misunderstanding, then there is nothing to say, your mother and I will go back first." ”
Hou Ye then led Mrs. Hou away, Jiang Yingli lowered his head, not daring to look at Mrs. Hou's expression at all, until the two left, Jiang Yingli turned his head angrily to hit Qiu Muyun, the two of them chased me in the house, but they were very active.
Although the rumors were uproared by those talkative people in the capital, Jiang Yingli and Mrs. Hou didn't take it seriously, anyway, it was just a ploy of the four princes when they thought about it, and Jiang Yingli didn't want to startle the snake at this time, so he didn't come forward to clarify.
Two days later, someone from the palace invited Jiang Yingli to enter the palace again, and this time it was no one else who came to call Jiang Yingliang into the palace, it was the queen who had not been seen for a long time.
Jiang Yingli didn't want to enter the palace at all, the last time she entered the palace, she was calculated by the four princes, and this time she went to the palace, and she didn't know how the queen would treat her.
Today's queen is declining, although she has a seal in her hand, but time is short, but even so, the other party is still a little powerful.
Jiang Yingli thought that the queen didn't like herself, what if she made things difficult for her at this time?
The more Jiang Yingli thought about it, the more she felt angry, but she couldn't refuse the queen's decree, so she could only enter the palace helplessly, thinking that she must behave very well-behaved this time, at least not let the queen be wary or disgusting about herself.
"You're here, I haven't seen you for so long, but your face is very ruddy, and you seem to be in a lot of energy." The queen's face was pale, and she coughed with a handkerchief when she saw Jiang Yingli coming.
Jiang Yingli frowned, and found that although the queen was wearing heavy makeup, she still couldn't hide the tiredness and sickness in her eyes, and she felt a little pity for her for a while.
The queen now has no children, and she doesn't have the emperor's favor, it's really pitiful, but that's all Jiang Yingli can give her, and she immediately saluted respectfully: "See the queen's mother." ”
The queen chuckled lightly and waved her hand: "Don't be polite to the palace, sit down, announcing your entry into the palace today actually wants you to help take care of the affairs of the harem." ”
Jiang Yingli was surprised when she heard this, she didn't hide the surprise in her heart, and said tentatively: "Queen Mother, the matter of the harem is naturally for you, the head of the six palaces, to deal with it, and it doesn't seem good for me to help." ”
Jiang Yingli really didn't expect that the purpose of the queen calling her was this, what does this harem matter have to do with her, and she is not a concubine.
When the queen heard this, she stared at her meaningfully and smiled: "Don't you really know why? ”
Jiang Yingli sighed in her heart, there must be a demon when things go wrong, not to mention that the queen smiled at her like this, Jiang Yingli immediately pretended to be stupid: "The queen, the courtiers really don't know, and ask the queen to make it clear." ”
The queen snorted lightly and glanced at Jiang Yingli lightly: "Now the rumors of you and the four princes are known throughout the capital, but he said in front of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty that he wanted you to be the crown princess, if it goes well in the future, then he is the emperor, and you are the queen." ”
Jiang Yinglian's face turned slightly pale when she heard this, and then she smiled reluctantly: "The queen mother is surprised by this, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince looks up to me, so he will say it in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, but the courtiers are self-aware, and the courtiers of this princess will never dare to be the princess." ”
"Oh, don't you really dare to be?" The queen did not embarrass Jiang Yingliang, but this sentence was slightly thorny.
Jiang Yingli smiled reluctantly: "What the courtiers said is the truth. I also added in my heart, I am not a rare princess, I just want to be my Mrs. Qiu.
The queen carefully looked at Jiang Yingliang's expression, and then laughed: "It seems that this palace has seen the wrong person." ”
Then she nodded as a matter of course: "But it's not wrong for you to think so, after all, you and Yun Chuan seemed to be entangled that day, and now that Yun Chuan is dead, after all, there is a fourth prince with you, isn't it?" But after all, you were involved with Yun Chuan before, and no matter how big the heart of the fourth prince is, it is impossible for you to be the crown princess. ”
Jiang Yingli didn't expect the queen to suddenly mention Yunchuan, and her face changed, not only her, but also the faces of other people in the palace.
