Chapter 257
"Poof" Su Jinyao was defeated by the logic of the second prince.
If you look at it according to the script of the happy enemy, this is a bloody scene, and it is likely to develop into a pair of resentful couples who die and live, but they are entangled in life and life.
But Su Jinyao knew that she was definitely not the heroine of the dog blood words (qíng) drama, and she didn't have the heart to play any game of catching and indulging, let alone having the heart to act with this second prince who had to rely on his face to eat in the middle of the night.
Therefore, Su Jinyao took a breath helplessly, and told him directly, simply, and clearly: "No, I'm really angry." I don't like to be swayed by others, and I don't like people to figure out my mind with self-righteousness. You and I, one is a prince and the other is a doctor in the rivers and lakes, two unrelated types, and there is no intersection. If you're hungry, stay and eat for yourself. If you get bored, you can go back to sleep. Good bye! ”
After saying that, Su Jinyao stood up (shēn) and walked straight back to her room, closing the door without looking back, she hooked the door with her heel and kicked it.
However, the second prince's magic voice sounded outside the door again: "Stupid woman, you are not an old (tào) road that captures the old (tào) road, which proves that you are a very strong woman." So, if you are the latter, it is the one that this prince is interested in and particularly likes. You say, will I let go? ”
"No, it won't. Whatever you want. Su Jinyao replied to him, and then lifted the quilt and got in, ignoring it again.
Su Jinyao knew that people like the second prince were so difficult, self-righteous, arrogant and narcissistic. But the current situation (qíng) is not something she can refuse if she wants to.
And she knew that the second prince was saying this to herself, but the situation was so complicated that it was impossible for her to use some special means.
If Su Jinyao thinks that the second prince really likes a strong woman, and she does the opposite, pretending to be a soft and cute little woman to pretend to cater to him, in order to make the second prince hate herself, then she is very wrong.
That's the way that the second prince used, and he was afraid that Su Jinyao would play hard with him, so he deliberately said so. Wait until you go to please him, and then he will come up with a plan.
If the second prince accepted Su Jinyao by taking advantage of the situation, this ambiguity would be out of touch, and she would lose a lot.
Therefore, Su Jinyao is too lazy to play any (tào) road, and directly refuses to be clean for those she doesn't like. As for whether he was pursuing or pleased, Su Jinyao turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear.
Now that the antidote has almost been prepared, she can leave the palace just waiting for the Queen Mother's Gu poison to be cleared.
She didn't believe it, the second prince was busy competing with Gu Xuebin for the crown prince, and he was still thinking about himself to play ambiguous.
Therefore, Su Jinyao didn't deal with it directly, closed the door, covered the quilt, and slept peacefully.
Su Jinyao didn't understand the rules of the palace, and she didn't know how old the waist card that entered the palace was. Anyway, she knew that the second prince couldn't really stay for a long time, so she quickly fell asleep with peace of mind.
But the next morning, the nightmare came. Su Jinyao slept well, but when she went out, she saw the palace maid kneeling outside the door. Each person was holding a red lacquer tray with all sorts of things on it.
From clothes, shoes and hats, to jewelry, dolls, delicious, fun, good-looking, everything. Su Jinyao even saw a simple music box on a tray.
It was supposed to be the most primitive music box, a small box of nanmu with many gears, shrapnel and clockwork. There is a hand crank handle outside, as long as the handle is shaken, it is a winding for the music box, and when you release the hand, there is a gear to drive the shrapnel and make a pleasant sound. At the front of the line of these palace maids holding gifts, kneeling was the palace maid who came over yesterday and asked Su Jinyao to follow her. Now I see her kneeling with low eyebrows, and she doesn't dare to raise her head, and she looks honest like a frosted eggplant.
And as soon as Su Jinyao went out, she was the first to speak, and said, "Miss Liu, these gifts are all prepared for you by the second prince." (diàn) next road, he is going to the early dynasty to be busy with government affairs, I am afraid that Miss Liu is too bored in the palace, so I will take a look at these gadgets first, and when he comes back, he will take Miss Liu to the imperial garden to enjoy flowers and flutter butterflies. ”
Flowers? Also flutter butterflies! Su Jinyao retreated into the house and closed the door with a "bang".
(ài) Kneel and go on her knees, she will be good at making medicine in the house. Things are there, and they have nothing to do with her. The palace ladies knelt, and she would not have the slightest guilt and pity.
Anyway, the second prince and her have no possibility at all, so why pursue it for an indifferent person and affect their own hearts (qíng).
After a while, Xi Shen'er came knocking on the door. The voice was small and asked Su Jinyao to have breakfast.
Su Jinyao said through the door: "Send it in, the door is not closed." ”
Xi Zhuo'er agreed, and pushed the door in with a large tray. However, because she was small and had little strength, she couldn't open the door with one hand while she was holding something in her hand, so she had to put down her things after entering the house, and then turn (shēn) back to close the door.
At this time, Su Jinyao glanced outside, and saw that the palace maids with things were still kneeling outside. Even though the sun was already rising and the temperature was rising, no one dared to move.
Seeing that Su Jinyao ignored it, Xi Shen'er didn't dare to make a sound, put the things in the tray on the table in the same way, and stepped aside.
Only then did Su Jinyao put down the things in her hand and ate with her hands clean. After eating a simple and hearty breakfast, Xi Shen'er secretly looked at Su Jinyao while cleaning up.
Su Jinyao didn't pay attention to it, she knew that Xi Shen'er must be full of curiosity, but this matter had nothing to do with Xi Shen'er, so why bother.
Xi Shen'er finally couldn't help but speak: "Miss Liu, those palace maids outside are actually very pitiful. ”
"I know, but their master told them to do it, and I have no right to interfere." Isn't Su Jinyao the savior of the White Lotus, let her be benevolent to the world and save every suffering palace maid? Joke.
What's more, as long as she has the heart to come out and take care of it, then the things that follow (qíng) are endless.
And what is even more strange about Su Jinyao is that since yesterday, the battle between the two princes has been quite small, why has no one come out to stop it?
Even if Yuguiren is more indulgent to this eldest son, he will support him in everything, not to mention that Su Jinyao is just a nameless little woman, Yuguiren probably didn't take her in his eyes at all, and he didn't mind his son going to play an ambiguous affair with a little woman like clouds and mustard.
But this is the scope of Yining Palace, why didn't even the Queen Mother come out to take care of it? No matter what, the Empress Dowager also knows Gu Xuebin's attitude towards herself, and she shouldn't allow her two grandsons to compete and be jealous (qíng) to happen, right?
Or...... The toss of the second prince is simply another drama in the palace fighting drama?
Thinking of this, Su Jinyao sneered, but became more calm. The current situation is that people are swordsmen and I am fish (ròu), and there is no opportunity to choose.
No matter what Su Jinyao does, she may become a victim of Gong Dou, and she is more likely to implicate Gu Xuebin. If she can't figure out such an obvious thing (qíng), then she really won't die unjustly.
Seeing that Su Jinyao's expression (qíng) was so indifferent, it was simply a state of "nothing to do with herself", so she could only shut up and retreat.
However, when Xi Zhuo'er was about to open the door, Su Jinyao stopped her and said, "Xi Zhuo'er, I haven't seen you since I was busy yesterday, so I forgot to ask you, is the arrangement made by the fourth prince out of your original intention?" What do you think, you can tell me. ”
Xi Zhuo'er stopped and looked back at Su Jinyao for a while before saying, "I really want to go out of the palace, but I don't like any medical skills, I just want to find a small place and live my life in peace." ”
Su Jinyao asked again: "Then your ideas are contrary to the fourth prince, and he is a strong person, what can you do?" ”
"What else can I do? He is him, and I am me. I already knew that he was a little bully, and everything (qíng) had to be done according to his wishes. But I think once he leaves the palace, he can't follow me all the time, right? Then it will fade slowly. ”
After Xi Shen'er finished speaking, she pursed her lips and smiled, but her smile was a little sad, and then said: "Miss Liu, I am really the daughter of a criminal minister, so no matter where I am, I am the same and cannot be free, and I have to bear the responsibility for my whole life." So to be able to find a stable place to spend my life, I am satisfied. ”
Su Jinyao heard Xi Zhuo'er say yesterday that her parents were criminals, and the whole family had been beheaded, and she was able to survive because her blood could practice Gu, so she was left by Yuguiren.
But now looking at Xi Shen'er's childish little face, it was full of bitter and helpless smiles, and suddenly I felt that this girl must not be living an easy life.
Xi Luo'er must have experienced too many tragic disasters at a young age, otherwise she would not have such a quiet (xìng) son, let alone talk like a sixty or seventy-year-old woman, lifeless.
Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Xiluo'er, I will not regret what I promised others, and I will do my best." So you don't have to worry that I'm lying to you, if I can get out of here, I'll try to take you away. As for your future placement, I will also try to help as much as possible. But I'm not going to interfere with you too much. ”
"Then thank you, Miss Liu." After thanking Xiluo'er, she showed a faint smile.
Although her smile was not very bright, she could finally see that she was a little more expectant than the helplessness and loneliness just now.
Not long after Xi Zhuo'er left, she heard Aunt Ma's voice outside: "What's going on?" What are you kneeling here for? What kind of place do you think of Yining Palace, and you can come if you want to? ”
Su Jinyao knew that the matter of the second prince was finally in trouble, and it was estimated that the queen mother could no longer indulge it, so she let Aunt Ma come over.
Su Jinyao only then got up (shēn) to open the door, and saw Aunt Ma counting the palace maids who were kneeling on the ground outside the door.
The one at the head opened his mouth, as if to make a defense. As a result, Aunt Ma slapped her and directly hit her back.
No palace maid dared to say anything, so Aunt Ma waved her hand and said, "Go back, don't bother Miss Liu." If you treat the Queen Mother by mistake, you will all have to lose your heads. Su Jinyao leaned on the door frame, watching Aunt Ma send these palace maids away, and felt that the live version of the palace fighting drama was more interesting than watching TV.
As soon as Aunt Ma turned her head and saw Su Jinyao, she walked over and said, "Miss Liu, please come with me, the queen mother's poison has flare up again, and it hurts badly." ”
Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Okay, I happened to make a few pills as well." And yesterday I tried it myself, and it definitely worked, so I'll take it to the Imperial Grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi) and bring it with me. ”
After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she went into the house to get the medicine, and Aunt Ma followed in and stood at the table to watch. It seemed that he said casually: "The second prince is (tǐng) attentive, I really have never seen him look at a woman." ”
Su Jinyao took out a small porcelain box, and the bottom of the box was made of special hay silk. Don't underestimate these seemingly ordinary shreds of hay, these are all soaked in the liquid medicine and then dried, which has a good effect on the retention medicine (xìng). Moreover, different pills contain different medicinal hay silk, which is very exquisite.
Su Jinyao was busy, listening to Aunt Ma's words, she raised her eyes and smiled, and asked, "This is Aunt Ma, are you intentionally helping the second prince say good things?" I've never seen a grandmother so caring. ”
This sentence is clearly waking up Aunt Ma, she has too many words, and she shouldn't blatantly stand on the edge of the queue of the second prince.
Aunt Ma is a smart person, she should understand it at once. But the smile on her face remained unchanged, and she said, "Actually, I'm not helping either side, I'm basically the person on the side of the empress dowager (shēn)." So whether it's the second prince or the crown prince, I'll just talk about things. ”
"Then ......" Su Jinyao picked up the porcelain box containing the medicine and asked, "Aunt Ma doesn't think that we should not take care of the princes' affairs (qíng)." As far as the facts are concerned, it's already a bit out of bounds? Anyway, I didn't dare to think about it and didn't dare to ask. I didn't dare to take a second look at these things when I sent them from the second prince, I knew that they had nothing to do with me, and I couldn't touch them or think about them. ”
"Haha, the little girl is gone, why is her mouth so powerful?" Aunt Ma smiled and said, "I heard you call me aunt the day before, why do you want to do it with my aunt today as if you have taken medicine?" ”
Su Jinyao hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I don't dare, I also know that Aunt Ma is from the Queen Mother's side, and she also reminds and takes care of me (qíng)." I just don't know how to deal with the second prince, don't laugh at me about this matter, Aunt Ma. I really haven't heard of what will happen between a village girl and a prince. ”
In fact, if Gu Xuebin hadn't whispered to Su Jinyao and asked her to pay attention to Aunt Ma, she wouldn't have said such a thing today.
No matter who Aunt Ma was for, she brought Su Jinyao in and helped Gu Xuebin meet her, Su Jinyao was still a little grateful in her heart.
But since Gu Xuebin was suspicious of her, Su Jinyao just wanted to take the opportunity to test it. Su Jinyao deliberately led Aunt Ma to say a few heavy words to see if she could show any horses.
However, after all, Aunt Ma was mixed in the palace, and answering Su Jinyao's words could be said to be seamless.
Aunt Ma is right, she is actually the person next to the Empress Dowager (shēn), she doesn't mean the main thing, and she won't really stand on which side, it mainly depends on the Empress Dowager's meaning and attitude.
Aunt Ma saw that Su Jinyao had the intention to show weakness, and emphasized that there would be no result between the village aunt and the prince, so she smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "But Aunt Ma thinks that you and the prince (diàn) don't think so in their hearts." ”
Su Jinyao also smiled and said seriously: "I am the most self-aware person, and I know very well what (shēn) is now, so I don't dare to climb high." ”
Su Jinyao actually had something to say, she emphasized that she didn't dare to climb high now, but she didn't say what would happen to her in the future. She has been working hard to make herself stand in front of others and stand at the top one day, who will dare to make irresponsible remarks at that time?
Aunt Ma smiled and didn't answer, but just led the way in front and asked Su Jinyao to follow her out to the main (diàn) of Yining Palace.
Unexpectedly, when passing by another room (diàn), a young girl in a pink dress was sitting on a stone bench in a small garden, and there were several maids standing next to (shēn).
The girl casually looked up and saw Su Jinyao, frowned, and actually stood up (shēn) to look this way.
Su Jinyao's intuition was very sensitive, and when the girl looked at it, she happened to look at it. I felt that the girl was very familiar, but for a while I couldn't remember where I had seen it.
Aunt Ma was still walking in front, and Su Jinyao couldn't delay, so she smiled at the girl and gestured to her, and left first.
But after all the way, she still couldn't remember when she had seen the girl. But looking at the way the girl looked at herself, it seemed that she also had an impression of herself.
But if it's a one-sided relationship, is it necessary to care so much? If they intersect on more than one side, why didn't the two of them recognize each other?
Su Jinyao was puzzled, Aunt Ma slowed down, glanced back and asked, "Miss Liu knows the eldest lady of the Gu family?" ”
"She's the young lady of the Gu family?" Su Jinyao secretly said in her heart: It turned out to be the Gu family.
However, Su Jinyao collected the memories in her mind again, and she could be sure that she had never seen any young lady of the Gu family at all.
Aunt Ma said, "Yes." That's what I told you, the niece that the Queen Mother liked. The Queen Mother's illness (qíng) has improved slightly, and she has already begun to plan for the marriage of this young lady (qíng). The matter of conferring a title on her (qíng) has also been decided, and the county lord is certain, if the emperor is gracious, maybe she can still be crowned a princess. ”
Su Jinyao nodded, shook her head again, and said, "Then I don't know you anymore." I guess it's just the same age, so she just said hello to me politely. ”
Aunt Ma also nodded when she heard this, and said, "The eldest lady of the Gu family has excellent conduct, she is a real boudoir, and she will not go out easily." So, when I saw you nodding to her, I thought you knew each other, which made me even more strange. ”
