When Xiao Mo returned to the mansion, everyone had already lined up on both sides and greeted him respectfully, while Uncle Zhong swept the top of Xiao Mo's head with a cypress branch, intending to drive away bad luck.

"This king is tired, everyone is scattered." Xiao Mo was supported by Xia Man and entered the Yiyun Palace.

Xia Man brought a soft mattress and put it on the couch, so that Xiao Mo could lie more comfortably, and brought bird's nest porridge and fed him little by little.

"And let the prince escape." Xia Man was angry in his heart, and secretly scolded the Light Saint Emperor for being mediocre.

Xiao Mo found a comfortable way to lie down and said mockingly: "If it weren't for Concubine Cheng's intervention this time, Xiao Wei would have been abolished long ago." ”

"Ugh." Xia Man sighed and said, "If I knew this, I shouldn't have let Cheng Jingsi marry the prince, but I helped him find a backer." ”

"Backer? I don't think so. Xiao Mo yawned, as if he was sleepy.

"You can get some sleep first, it's been a toss for a few days." Xia Man covered Xiao Mo with a quilt, lit a soothing incense, and then slowly withdrew from the dormitory, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he met Feng Ruoqing.

"See the side concubine."

Feng Ruoqing looked into the hall and asked, "The prince is resting?"

Xia Man nodded, and also followed her gaze, "Just rested, the prince is too tired." ”

"Then when the prince wakes up, I'll come again." Feng Ruoqing turned around and was about to leave when he suddenly turned his face sideways and said, "You are very smart." ”

"Side concubine praise." Xia Man couldn't figure out what she meant by this.

Feng Ruoqing smiled, stopped speaking, and left directly.

Late at night, King Heng's Mansion was silent, and the patrolling guards shuttled through the mansion in an orderly manner, but Qianying came to Yiyun Hall easily.

"If you can't tell me tomorrow, you have to call me in the middle of the night." Chikage rubbed her eyes, sleepy.

Xiao Mo looked at the inner hall and saw that the people in the hall were already asleep, so he lowered his voice and said, "This matter must be carried out in secret, and no one else will know about it." ”

Qianying followed Xiao Mo's gaze and said clearly, "I just can't let her know." ”

"Concubine Cheng's help to Xiao Wei this time is mostly for Cheng Jingsi, if she has an accident in the Prince's Mansion, then Concubine Cheng must not give up." Xiao Mo also hesitated and wanted to save Cheng Jingsi's life, but now that the prince has lost power, if he does not take advantage of the victory to pursue, once the prince turns over, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Say, poison or wipe your neck." The Thousand Shadows are breezy and light, as if the other party is a goat to be slaughtered.

"No, we can't make a move, we have to let Xiao Wei do it himself."

"He is not a fool, knowing that this time Concubine Cheng is for his side concubine to protect him, how can he move Cheng Jingsi."

Xiao Mo smiled, over the years, he had already figured out Xiao Wei's temperament, and naturally knew how to provoke him, "I heard that the Hu family is happy." ”

"Are you trying to use the Hu clan to make Xiao Wei do it?"

"I'm afraid the Hu family still doesn't know how Cheng Jingsi became a side concubine, find someone to tell her in detail."

"I'll go." A thousand shadows came and went without a trace, and while speaking, they had already left Yiyun Palace.

Xiao Mo walked to the inner hall, looked at the sleeping people on the couch through the gauze curtains, and felt indescribable in his heart, especially from Qianying and the side concubine who knew how she used the dark pattern of dragon scales to exonerate herself, and even more admired.

In the prince's mansion, Xiao Wei was depressed and depressed, locking himself in the dormitory and sleeping all day long, and it was difficult for the concubines below to see each other, but Cheng Jingsi could come and go at will, which made the Hu family angry.

"Why can she see the prince, but I was stopped at the door with the prince's flesh and blood." Hu Shi held his stomach and paced back and forth in the dormitory, and the blue jade vase on the desk had been broken several times.

The maidservant Qingting was busy supporting the Hu family and persuaded: "The master is angry, and he has to take care of the child in his belly." ”

Hu Shi took a sip outside the hall, and then helped himself to the soft collapse by Qingting, eating the oranges that had already been peeled.

"Master, now Concubine Cheng is infinitely beautiful." Qingting glanced at Hu's face secretly, and said, "I'm afraid that when the crown prince ascends the throne, she will be the queen." ”

"What nonsense!" Hu Shi smashed the orange in his hand at Qingting and mocked: "Concubine Zheng is still there, where is her turn." ”

"The master is wise, if she hadn't been lucky enough to save her master, how could she have had the opportunity to seduce the prince and become a side concubine." Qingting looked at Hu's demeanor again, and sure enough, Hu's face changed.

"I was in a coma that day, and I couldn't remember a lot of things, so you tell me about it in detail." Hu straightened his body and pressed his head, as if recalling the scene of the sunset.

Qingting gently slapped Hu's shoulders and told about the events of that day, "That day, the master asked the slave to go back to get the tranquilizing oil, who knew that as soon as he left, he heard the grandmother say that the master fell into the water, and it happened that Concubine Cheng passed by and rescued you, and then when the prince came to see you, Concubine Cheng changed clothes in your inner room, so she became a concubine." ”

After hearing this, Hu Shi clenched his fists tightly, his face was pale, and Qingting said again: "The master would have been water-based, how could he use her to save her, and save it so coincidentally." ”

"yes, how could it be so coincidental." Hu Shi seemed to recall some things, smelled a strange fragrance that day, suddenly felt dizzy, and then fell into the lotus pond, now think about it, it is indeed strange, I am afraid that I was calculated by Cheng Jingsi.

"Help me to the front hall." Hu couldn't let go of his heart for a long time, Cheng Jingsi dared to calculate herself, and she wanted her to taste it.

After a while, Qingting carried Hu to the prince's bedroom, and happened to meet Cheng Jingsi.

"The side concubine comes every day, I really worry about the prince all the time, I don't know, I think you are the concubine." Hu Shi did not salute Cheng Jingsi, and his mouth was sarcastic.

"Presumptuous! When he saw the side concubine, he didn't salute. Cheng Jingsi's dowry girl Huanpei looked down on the Hu family who was born in Yuefu, and on weekdays, the Hu family relied on the prince's favor to press the side concubine everywhere, seeing that she was so rude, she wanted to vent her anger for her master.

'Slap', a slap fell on Huanpei's face, "Master speak, what are you little slave talking about." Hu withdrew his hand and gently pressed his palm.

Cheng Jingsi saw that Huanpei's face was already red and swollen, a little bulging, and saw Hu's arrogant appearance, if she didn't punish her, she was afraid that she would be even more blinded in the prince's mansion in the future, so she wanted someone to give her a few whips, and she thought about the child in her belly, so she punished her with a small punishment, "Come on, slap Hu's mouth ten times." ”

The maidservant girl below was about to step forward, but was repelled by Hu, "You dare!"

Huan Pei was not afraid of Hu's might, and came up to Hu's face with a few slaps, and the force was so great that the hairpin ring on Hu's head was shaken off.

When the last slap fell, Hu fell to the ground unsteadily, Qingting hurriedly went to help, only to find that there was faint blood stains on Hu's gauze skirt on his thighs, so he shouted: "Master, what's wrong with you, you can't be okay." ”

This cry alarmed Xiao Wei, and as soon as he got out of the dormitory, he saw Hu Shi fall to the ground, and his body was blood-red, so he hurriedly rushed over, picked up Hu Shi and called the imperial doctor.
