Chapter 536: The Tongue That Doesn't Rot
536
At the beginning of the sunny day after the snow, Concubine Xu Guifei enjoyed the plum blossoms in the courtyard of Tianxi Palace.
It was an old plum tree, and its flowers were like fire, especially with white snow. It was the year when she just moved into Tianxi Palace, and the emperor ordered someone to transplant it from Meiling, and it bloomed most brightly in the middle of winter every year.
Now it's just the first release, but it's sparse and chic, and it has a unique charm.
Xu Zhixi came in from outside, his eyebrows lowered, and he didn't dare to look directly at Xu Guifei.
She has been pretending to be sick since that day, and if it weren't for Xu Guifei sending someone to invite her three times, she wouldn't have come.
"Go and bring the girl a hand stove, and let her accompany me here to enjoy the plum blossoms for a while." Xu Guifei commanded.
Xu Zhixi sat down slowly, hesitated for a long time and still couldn't find a suitable topic.
"What were you messing around with the other day? You can do such a big thing if you want to, and you don't take my aunt seriously. Xu Guifei went straight into the knife and didn't go around the corner.
"Auntie, don't be angry, this matter is indeed my misplanning." Xu Zhixi said with remorse: "I was dizzy with anger at the time, so I ......"
"If you know that you are dizzy, don't make a decision in anger," Xu Guifei taught her: "What kind of place should you be?" It's up to you to mess around as you please. Although Wei Yining has no foundation, but she is from the queen's side, you have nothing to do with what she does? Xu Guifei hated iron and said: "It's really a day by day that I don't let me worry." ”
"I have nothing to do, it's that she's too flamboyant," Xu Zhixi felt very aggrieved: "I just can't get used to her arrogant look." ”
Xu Guifei frowned when she heard this, and said, "Isn't this Wei Yining usually quite quiet and submissive, where is it publicized?" ”
"She, she thinks about the prince very much," Xu Zhixi stomped his feet and said, "Don't look at what she is!" ”
"Who told you this?" Xu Guifei sneered when she heard this: "How did I hear that Xiao Qingqing intended to let Wei Yining be the crown prince's concubine, but Wei Yining politely refused." ”
"Ah, there's such a thing." This time it was Xu Zhixi's turn to be surprised: "It was Sun Mingming who said it, she said ......"
"Hmph, you take her words seriously, she just wants to rescue Si Xian," Xu Guifei sneered: "You, don't be too honest in your heart, let people be gunslingers." ”
Xu Zhixi bit her lower lip, Sun Mingming actually dared to play tricks on herself, she had to give her a good look.
"You can't be so reckless in the future, I have a new tribute to the Ganoderma lucidum, you take two back. I'll have something to do in a while, so I won't leave you here for lunch. Xu Guifei sighed, and her voice softened: "As long as you remember your life's events, your aunt will naturally make decisions for you, and you will be guaranteed to marry well." ”
Xu Zhixi nodded when he heard this, and asked the maid to take the lingzhi out of Tianxi Palace.
But after going out, she didn't go back to her residence, but went directly to find Sun Mingming.
Sun Mingming was copying poems in the house, and when she saw Xu Zhixi coming, she hurriedly put down her pen and smiled and gave up her seat.
"I heard a few days ago that you were sick, and you didn't see any visitors a few times. I've been thinking about it, and it should be good to look at your face now. Sun Mingming said and went to pour tea.
"Don't pretend to be a fool with me, you're playing tricks on me from beginning to end!" Xu Zhi said fiercely: "I still treat you as a friend." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Sun Mingming was stunned for a moment: "What are you talking about?" How do I not understand? ”
"You don't understand? I see that you understand, you are annoyed that my aunt and I failed to do our best to help the third prince, so you deliberately asked me to point the finger at Wei Yining, and you watched the show on the side. The more Xu Zhixi said, the more angry he became: "The result was self-defeating, not only did it not harm Wei Yining, but it caused a commotion." ”
"Sorry, what I said to you is not false." Sun Mingming said with a straight face: "As for what you said is self-defeating, I don't know what's going on at all. ”
Xu Zhixi also calmed down at this time, only she, Concubine Chen Shufei and a few subordinates who followed knew about framing Wei Yining, and Sun Mingming really didn't know.
But this doesn't mean that Sun Mingming didn't deliberately provoke, so she said: "Anyway, I won't believe you anymore, my aunt said that you are all thinking about the third prince, how can you be sincerely good with me?" ”
"I regret, what you said is too damning," Sun Mingming was about to cry while holding the teacup: "I admit that I have three princes in my heart, and most of the reason why I am good to you is because of him." But no matter how stupid I am, I know that even if one day my infatuation comes true, the noble concubine Niangniang is still the adoptive mother of the third prince, and she is a person who I will respect filial piety all my life. What's more, to put it more bluntly, I spent a mountain of gold and silver to protect you, how could I turn around and cut off this relationship? ”
Her words made Xu Zhixi's heart shake, and his eyes became hesitant.
Sun Ming knew that the two of them were suspicious of him, which was of course not a good thing. In order to appease Xu Zhixi, she said: "Who is the concubine Niangniang?" My little Taoism is not worth it in front of her, but I can also see that the concubine must not want you to marry the prince. ”
"How do you know?" Xu Guifei had indeed told Xu Zhixi that she would not let her beat the prince, but this was said by the two of them in private, and Sun Mingming would never know.
"That's why the concubine Niangniang will tell you that Wei Yining will not be the prince's side concubine." Sun Mingming couldn't say anything, but Xu Zhixi already understood.
Thinking like this, she won't even be able to trust her aunt in the future.
Because her aunt didn't want her to marry the prince, it was possible to help Wei Yining ascend to the throne and let her ideas fall through.
"It's not strange that Wei Yining refused, maybe Xiao Qingqing was just testing her." Sun Mingming said: "If someone mentions it, she agrees, but it seems too urgent." ”
"So what should I do?" Xu Zhixi suddenly felt that his future was bleak and full of obstacles.
"I don't know about this," Sun Mingming shook her head in embarrassment and said: "I still say the same thing, Wei Yining's scheming is too deep, and he is too good at buying people's hearts." ”
"Hmph, I must find a way to subdue her." Xu Zhixi's fighting spirit was aroused again.
Especially when she thought of the humiliation she suffered last time her plan fell through, she was even more unwilling.
"There is no turning back from the bow, although Wei Yining and Duanmin County Lord don't say it, the festival between us has also ended." Xu Zhixi made up his mind and said: "After all, you can't get rid of the clean." ”
"Can you beat them, then?" Sun Mingming asked timidly.
"What's that? Didn't they do anything to me last time! Xu Zhixi said stiffly: "Let's see!" ”
