Chapter 372: The Viciousness of Jackals, Tigers and Leopards
The palace people chasing Yuexuan knelt in a row on the ground, and they all kowtowed to Shangguan Yunxin and said, "Princess, please spare the slaves and maids, princess, the slaves and maids don't dare anymore." β
"It's because this princess is too indulgent to you on weekdays, so that's why the fifth lady is harmed......" Shangguan Yunxin's eyes were also red, and then he said ruthlessly, "Pa Yun sent all these people to the riot room to serve their sentences, and without the order of this princess, no one is allowed to indulge them out of the riot room." β
The little palace maid kneeling on the ground saw that Shangguan Yunxin was determined to send herself to the violent room, and they were all so frightened that they kowtowed desperately on the ground and begged for mercy, and even more so that their heads were purple and red, but they still kowtowed to Shangtou and begged for mercy regardless of it.
Shangguan Yunxin is the most lenient and temperamental, even if a little palace maid accidentally touches her beloved object while cleaning the dormitory, she can't bear to be punished heavily, but now she is ruthless to send a group of palace maids to the violent room.
When Pa Yun saw Shangguan Yunxin walking towards the inner room, he said to the group of little palace maids kneeling on the ground: "Now the princess is determined to send you to the violent room, it can be seen that it really annoys you, it is better for you to go to the violent room to serve your sentence first, and I will intercede for you when the princess is angry." β
"Sister Pa Yun, the princess has always been the most kind character, this time it's just because someone accidentally said something, so that the fifth lady heard the news that Zuo Xiang's mansion was on fire...... "There are little palace maids who are wronged, and they tell the truth, hoping that Pa Yun can intercede for them."
"Shut up!" Pa Yun, who was still kind and pleasant, instantly turned cold after hearing the words "Fifth Miss" and said, "If you are still willing to listen to my advice, you will go to the violent room to serve your sentence at this moment, if you are not happy to be heard by the princess Fang Cai's words, it will not be as simple as going to the violent room to serve your sentence." β
The little palace maid's words were only halfway through when she was blocked by Pa Yun, and she was so frightened that she trembled all over, and then she didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.
The palace maids were angry when they saw that Pa Yun, who was the most talkative on weekdays, and they already knew in their hearts that they could not escape the punishment of the violent room this time, so they had to stand up and follow the inner servant out of the Chasing Moon Xuan.
When a group of crying little palace maids came out of the Moon Chasing Xuan, Pa Yun walked towards the main hall of the Moon Chasing Xuan.
"Princess, the slave maid has already sent all the palace maids to the violent room." Pa Yun closed the door of the main hall as he spoke, and for the sake of prudence, he didn't even forget to put his ears on the door and listen, and only turned around and said when he was sure that there was no one outside, "Don't worry, princess, this will really be no one hiding outside to listen to the corner." β
"Pa Yun, thank you for your hard work, if we hadn't worked together to perform such a play, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to deceive those people lurking outside listening to the corner of the wall, and now that person must be smart enough to report to her master that the situation is not good."
"Your Royal Highness Princess, Brother Qingxuan often taught me that you must be honest in life, you can't lie, and you can't deceive others." Ning Yucheng saw that Shangguan Yunxin and Pa Yun had led people astray, so he said, "Brother Qingxuan......"
"Sixth son, you are really stupid to read the sage book." Shangguan Yunxin also retorted to him unceremoniously, "Your brother Qingxuan told you that you can't lead people astray, but you didn't say that you can't lead jackals, tigers and leopards astray. β
"The jackal, tiger and leopard in the mouth of Her Royal Highness the princess are ......" Ning Yucheng heard Shangguan Yunxin talk about jackals, tigers and leopards, and also looked at Yuan Qingxuan who was also dressed in an inner clothes beside him with some puzzlement.
Yuan Qingxuan's eyes were looking towards the inner room intentionally or unintentionally, he was not a frivolous person, and now he kept his eyes glued to the direction of the inner room just because he cared about it.
"Brother Qingxuan...... Brother Qingxuan...... "Ning Yucheng set his eyes on Yuan Qingxuan, but the latter didn't seem to see it, and a pair of eyes always looked at the inner room behind him intentionally or unintentionally.
"Sixth son, now that Yuan Gongzi is concerned about Fifth Miss, I'm afraid I won't have time to pay attention to you, Sixth Prince." Pa Yun still had a little hearing of Yuan Qingxuan, and knew that although his father Jingzhao Mansion Yin's official position was not high, Yuan Qingxuan was favored by Emperor Qi because of his full stomach, and he personally gave Yuan Qingxuan the grace of the great officials of Hanlin.
"Your Royal Highness the Princess, it is rude for the minister, and I ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to forgive me." Yuan Qingxuan was teased by Pa Yun for a while, and then he woke up, and hurriedly bowed to Shangguan Yun in front of him to plead guilty.
Shangguan Yunxin knew that he was just really concerned about Ning Wanran, so he would be absent-minded and couldn't hear the words of others at all, so he quietly changed the topic and said: "Sixth son, although your brother Qingxuan is a rich scholar and a rich man, he doesn't know what the 'jackal, tiger and leopard' in this princess's words means. β
"Please also ask Her Royal Highness the princess for advice." Ning Yucheng was taught by Yuan Qingxuan's side, but he was already very upright at a young age, but in the end, he still did not get rid of the childishness of a child, and when he saw Shangguan Yunxin's mysterious look, he couldn't help but blink his eyes and look at her.
Shangguan Yunxin asked, "Did your brother Qingxuan teach you to be honest, let alone lie to deceive others?" β
Ning Yucheng nodded and replied, "Brother Qingxuan taught Dao Yucheng like this. β
"Your brother Qingxuan only taught you not to deceive good people, but he didn't teach you not to deceive beasts in sheep's clothing!"
Yuan Qingxuan saw that Shangguan Yunxin might want to expose the truth about Zuo Xiangfu, so he interrupted her and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, Yucheng is still ...... young."
Shangguan Yunxin took the opportunity to interrupt Yuan Qingxuan's words and said: "Yuan Gongzi, this princess knows your concerns, the sixth prince is indeed young, but now the Zuo Xiangfu is like a tiger and wolf den, if you don't tell the truth, I'm afraid it will be calculated by those people." β
"Your Royal Highness Princess, the ministers will take care of Yucheng, but he is really young, I'm afraid he is not suitable to hear those ......"
"I know that Yuan Gongzi wants to protect the sixth prince for Wanran, but now the left minister's mansion is full of dangers, and Yuan Gongzi can't stay by the side of the sixth prince all the time, in the end, the sixth prince himself needs to be vigilant all the time, so as to avoid being poisoned by others."
Yuan Qingxuan grew up in the Yuan Mansion of Qingliu House, and Yin of Jingzhao Mansion was a good and honest official, Yuan Qingxuan, who grew up in such an environment, naturally would not know that those jackals, tigers and leopards in the Zuo Xiangfu would do everything.
But Shangguan Yunxin is different from Xuan Qingxuan, she lost her mother since she was a child, and she is used to seeing the deception in the palace, although Shangguan Hanyue wants to protect her as much as possible, but there is always something that cannot be taken into account, and Shangguan Hanyue, who is helpless, has to analyze the sinister hearts of the people in the palace to her when Shangguan Yunxin is still young, and tells her to be careful to guard against those evil people with evil intentions.
Shangguan Yunxin's words actually made Yuan Qingxuan speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to refute it, although he had not experienced the infighting in the mansion, but in the end he was not as young and naΓ―ve as Ning Yucheng, but seeing Ning Wanran's several dangers, he could also spy on the power of those jackals, tigers and leopards in Zuo Xiang's mansion.
"Now we pity the sixth prince for his youth and don't want to tell him the truth, but those wicked people with evil intentions will not show mercy to his subordinates." Shangguan Yunxin glanced at the direction of the inner room, and then continued, "Even the weak and indisputable temperament that seems to be with the fifth aunt has suffered now, not to mention the only concubine in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, and now the sixth son who has attracted much attention." β
Ning Yucheng has grown a lot since he entered the Yuan Mansion to study, and the last time Emperor Qi praised Ning Yucheng's intelligence in the Guogong Mansion, saying that he hoped that Ning Yucheng could be better than the blue, and he could become a pillar of the Zhou Dynasty like Ning Fanzhi in the future.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, Brother Qingxuan." Ning Yucheng saw that Shangguan Yunxin and Yuan Qingxuan had a disagreement for themselves, so he raised his head and looked at the faces of the two of them, "Yucheng is about to turn twelve years old, Yucheng doesn't want to be protected by his sister all the time, he doesn't want to be protected by Qingxuan's brother all the time, Yucheng wants to know the truth, even if Yucheng can't protect his sister when he is young, Yucheng doesn't want to drag his sister down." β
"Her Royal Highness the princess understands." Yuan Qingxuan listened to Shangguan Yunxin's words, and now seeing that Ning Yucheng was so sensible, he finally compromised, "The minister is willing to tell Yucheng about the affairs in the Zuo Prime Minister's mansion, but the minister wants to tell Yucheng in person." β
As early as when Shangguan Yunxin moved his mind to take Ning Yucheng into Ziyun City, he had already given Yuan Qingxuan a letter of repair, describing the beginning and end of the matter, plus Yuan Qingxuan was a smart person, and now he probably knew the beginning and end of the matter.
"This princess went in to accompany Wanran, and when Yuan Gongzi and the sixth prince explained the whole story, and calmed the emotions of the sixth prince, this princess is taking you in to see Wanran." Shangguan Yunxin was already pushing the door and walking into Ning Wanran's room while Pa Yun was talking.
"See Her Royal Highness the Princess." As soon as Shangguan Yunxin Fu stepped into the inner room, a palace maid blessed her, "The fifth lady heard that the sixth prince was coming, and she was finally willing to drink the life-saving medicine left by the plain girl." β
Shangguan Yunxin listened to the words of the little palace maid, and followed her gaze to see Ning Wanran, who was lying on the couch with a pale face, and her pale face was almost transparent in the light and shadow leaking in from the window.
"Princess, but the sixth brother is here? I just heard his voice. Ning Wanran looked at Shangguan Yunxin, who was slowly walking towards her, and her voice was as weak as a gossamer.
