Thirty-ninth
"His Royal Highness King Xie Yi. Nan Xueyu got up and stood aside quietly, not in a hurry to speak.
The Queen Mother beckoned to her, "Xue Yu, let's continue to massage the Mourning family, the Mourning family can't do without your technique for a while, it was comfortable yesterday, you are here in the future, this day will change again, and the Mourning family will not be worried!"
How could the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion think that Nan Xueyu not only did not receive the punishment from the Queen Mother, but became her guest, not to mention that they didn't know her ability, but they saw Haiqiu's respectful attitude towards her, and intentionally or unintentionally said in front of the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion that the Queen Mother had orders, if she needed anything, just speak, the second lady They were naturally surprised and strange, and they were all muttering in their hearts, looking for an opportunity to ask clearly.
"Yes, Queen Mother. Nan Xueyu didn't see Murong Yao's reaction, sat back respectfully, and continued to massage the Queen Mother, with a cold smile on the corner of her mouth. The Queen Mother really understands her and knows how to speak, it seems that the Queen Mother really doesn't want to see Murong Yao, so if she acts in the future, she will have a lot less scruples, and it will be much more convenient to take revenge, which is really good!
Murong Yao was even more shocked and inexplicable, staring at Nan Xueyu in disbelief, his mind was a little confused! Listening to the queen mother's meaning, not only did he not punish Nan Xueyu at all, but regarded her as his own, this, this is too unbelievable!" "The queen mother," he was a little unacceptable, and his face was also ugly, "What the son reported to the queen mother yesterday ......"
The Queen Mother turned her head, her expression was not very stern, but it just gave people a cold feeling, "What's the matter?"
"......" Murong Yao suddenly felt choked, and was a little anxious, "Queen Mother, Nan Xueyu is obviously pretending to be stupid, in order to avoid choosing a concubine, she is so disrespectful to the queen mother, and she is even guilty of bullying the royal brother, shouldn't the queen mother be punished for her!"
"Is this matter," the Queen Mother waved her hand, her expression unchanged, "The mourning family has already asked clearly, Xue Yu was not stupid before, so why pretend to be stupid?"
“...... What?" Murong Yao was really flashed, and it took a while to come back to his senses, "Aren't you stupid?" No, Queen Mother, what do you mean by this, Nan Xueyu is clearly an idiot-"
"Yao'er!" the Queen Mother's face sank, and she said quite unhappily, "Although Xue Yu is the daughter of a subordinate, you must not insult her like this!
Of course not, but ...... Murong Yao's face turned blue in a hurry, he took two steps forward, clenched his fists, and glared at Nan Xueyu fiercely, "Nan Xueyu, what kind of demon magic did you use to confuse the queen mother, ah?!"
"The courtiers don't dare!" Nan Xueyu got up and was about to kneel, but was stopped by the Queen Mother, so she had to make a sincere and frightened look, "The Queen Mother, the courtiers ......"
"Don't be afraid," the Queen Mother patted her hand comfortingly, turned her head and said in a deep voice, "Yao'er, the mourning family thinks you have misunderstood, Xue Yu is indeed a good woman with a good heart, although sometimes she acts recklessly, but she is by no means a stupid person, she is not stupid, she did not pretend to be stupid, and this matter will not be mentioned in the future, understand?"
Murong Yao gritted his teeth and glared, and finally understood why Nan Xueyu was not punished, it turned out that the queen mother was angry with her! But it didn't make sense, I hadn't heard the queen mother talk about how much she treated Nan Xueyu before, why did she complain to the queen mother, but instead fulfilled the two of them, and now they are as close as mother and daughter, this is too ironic......, right?" Since Nan Xueyu is not stupid, the matter of choosing a concubine ......"
"The mourning family also asked Jun'er what he meant," the queen mother obviously had a response to it, so her expression did not change, "Jun'er just took a fancy to Nan Xuerong and didn't like Xue Yu, and the mourning family couldn't force him, otherwise there would be no peace in the future." ”
"But—"
"As for Xue Yu," the Queen Mother glanced at Nan Xue Yu, with a look of love in her eyes, "The mourning family likes her very much, and she has excellent medical skills, she can relieve this trouble for the mourning family, and the mourning family is also very happy. The implication is naturally that I want to accept others as righteous daughters, but people may not be willing, it depends on what they mean.
"The courtiers don't dare!" Nan Xueyu was really taken aback this time, she didn't expect the queen mother to have such affection for her, so she quickly knelt down, "How can the courtiers be-"
"Get up, don't kneel without moving, doesn't your knees hurt?" the Queen Mother helped her up in disgust, "The mourning family will not force you, you go back and think about it, and then make a decision after the concubine ceremony is over." ”
"Yes......" Nan Xueyu's heart was moved, and her voice trembled a little.
Murong Yao was completely dumbfounded this time, the more the Queen Mother talked to Nan Xueyu, the more speculative she became, but it seemed that he was standing there like a fool, it was really redundant!
However, what tricks did this slut use to coax the queen mother so happy and defend her like this? No wonder, before he said that he would report to the queen mother that she was pretending to be stupid, she was not afraid at all, it turned out that there was a trick after that! Nan Xueyu, Nan Xueyu, this king really underestimated you, it seems that to deal with you, you have to make another ruthless move......
Haiqiu walked in, feeling the unusual atmosphere in the house, his heart was also tight, he quietly glanced at Murong Yao uneasily, and hurriedly said to the Queen Mother, "Empress Dowager, His Royal Highness King Yue has come to ask for peace." ”
Nan Xueyu's eyes changed slightly, and there was a trace of warmth surging in her heart, and she was inexplicably a little happy! It's not that she doesn't know Murong Ye's indifference and ruthlessness to people and things, but every time she thinks of him, she only feels expectation and warmth, the memories of this life have left her really some precious treasures, which are worth reminiscing about in this life and the next life!
"Let Ye'er come in and talk," the Queen Mother was obviously very happy, "It's raining heavily outside, it's rare for him to have this heart." "The love for Murong Ye is beyond words, and no one with a discerning eye can see it.
Murong Yao's face turned blue with anger beside him, he and Murong Ye were not born to the Queen Mother, why did the fifth child have a cold face all day long, and he could be so pleased with the Queen Mother, he was calm in the morning, and he did not forget to ask the Queen Mother for peace, what good things he had, they were all dedicated to the Queen Mother first, but she still had to be lukewarm, not intimate or sparse, what is the reason! It rained so hard today, he deserved to come over, and it became rare for the fifth child to come over in the rain, this is too discriminatory, how could he not be angry!
Haiqiu turned around and went out, looking at Murong Yao's ugly face, and roughly understood what he was thinking, and said in his heart, what are you angry about, who told you to ask Miss Xue Yu about her guilt, can't you see that the Queen Mother likes her very much, isn't it boring for herself!
Not long after, Murong Ye walked in, his shoes and the hems of his clothes were wet, but it did not affect his cold and noble temperament, and he knelt down outside the curtain and saluted, "Erchen greets the queen mother." Fang just glanced at it hurriedly, and as far as he could see was the figure that he was familiar with but didn't know how to get along, and the queen mother had a gentle expression and a smile on her face, it shouldn't have been angry, right?
"Get up," the Queen Mother waved her hand, "Ye'er, come in and talk." ”
"Erchen doesn't dare," Murong Ye lowered his eyebrows, "Erchen is not in good shape, and he doesn't dare to disturb the Queen Mother." It was raining too much outside, and he didn't want to take a sedan chair, so how could his clothes not get wet all the way.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "You kid, you are too serious in everything! There are no outsiders here, you don't have to talk about these vulgar rites, come in and talk." ”
Even so, Murong Ye no longer insisted, "Yes, Queen Mother." Then he lifted the curtain and entered, and stood respectfully.
Nan Xueyu immediately got up, "The courtiers have seen His Royal Highness King Yue. Remembering that when Murong Yao wanted to kill himself that day, he came to the rescue, this kindness, she can remember it, and return it together, that is.
"No need to be polite. Murong Ye's face was still indifferent, but his eyes paused slightly on Nan Xueyu's face, but he was obviously gentle, and even had an imperceptible smile: This woman is really good, she can win the favor of the queen mother, it seems that she is too worried, since she dares to fight with the third brother, it is impossible to only know the courage of the horseman, there must be a clever plan, yes, she is a smart person.
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Yue. ”
The Queen Mother smiled, "Ye'er, the period of the concubine ceremony is coming soon, how are things prepared?" Although Ye'er doesn't like to say much, she is absolutely careful in her work, and she can't make any mistakes, so she still leaves this important matter to Ye'er to do, in order to be successful.
Murong Ye said, "After returning to my mother, the etiquette has been arranged, and the safety of the palace depends on the third brother." ”
Nan Xueyu sneered silently while massaging the Queen Mother, the reason why Murong Yao is so ambitious and wants to seize the throne is that in addition to the fact that he has been secretly enveloping the courtiers, what is more important is that he holds 100,000 forbidden troops in the capital, as long as he ascends to the top and shouts, he will be able to surround the imperial city, and the consequences are terrible, and the reason why he has not moved until now is just that he lacks a favorable opportunity. Therefore, if you want to get rid of him, you must first get back the military power, otherwise everything will be in vain.
