665 bad luck
"Third Emperor Brother, you don't need to swear it." Wuyang was too lazy to waste his lips and tongue with a shameless villain like Mu Youjing, and his voice became colder, "Want to win over King Jian's Mansion?" You better stop dreaming! It's only been four months since the palace left Beijing, and you've tossed so much, and since the palace is back, you can't help tossing it anymore! ”
Wuyang's gaze swept between Mu Youjing and Xie Xiangling, and he didn't show any affection for them at all.
Xie Xiangling seemed to have been slapped in the face, his eyes were almost jaw-dropping, and the anger in his heart was rising......
"Someone, send off!" Wuyang directly served tea to the guests, "Third Emperor Brother, you don't have to come again in the future, King Jian's Mansion is guarding filial piety, and the palace thinks you are unlucky." ”
As soon as her voice fell, two mothers-in-law with big shoulders and round waists came in and stretched out their hands to make a plea to the two guests.
"Bad luck?!" Xie Xiangling only felt that the anger rushed to his head, and he couldn't bear it anymore, Huo Di got up and blurted out, "Whoever thinks it's bad luck doesn't know!" She also knows that King Jian's Mansion is guarding filial piety, so unlucky, do you think she likes to come here?!
Wuyang raised his lips and smiled, his smile was even brighter, and he nodded: "Since that's the case, don't come to the door." ”
"Sending off guests." Wuyang repeated again.
The two mothers-in-law took another step closer towards Mu Youjing and Xie Xiangling, and Mu Youjing wanted to say a few more words softly, but Xie Xiangling couldn't bear it anymore, and said with his head held high...... Sister Huanghuang, don't just look at no one just because you're a princess, it's hard to say in the future! Xie Xiangling's voice became more and more high-pitched, and he let go of his cruel words.
The scene is colder.
"In the future?" Wuyang raised her eyebrows with a smile, and between a smile, she naturally revealed a kind of arrogance of a proud woman of the sky, "In the future, this palace will still be a princess, but you may not be anything!" ”
"You ......" Xie Xiangling's face was blue, and fire almost erupted from his eyes.
Mu Youjing was afraid that they would make trouble, so she quickly grabbed one of Xie Xiangling's hands and interrupted her: "Ling'er! ”
Mu Youjing reluctantly smiled at Wuyang, "Sister Huanghuang, let's leave first." ”
Xie Xiangling shook off his hand, brushed his sleeves and left, striding out of the hall without looking back.
"The Third Princess." The palace maid trotted up and put a cloak on Xie Xiangling.
Mu Youjing looked at Wuyang again, the matter had come to this point, he could only quickly chase Xie Xiangling, and the moment he turned around, a smile froze at the corner of his lips.
Wuyang looked at the backs of the two leaving, and drank tea nonchalantly.
On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, the weather is still cold, and even the noon sun can't suppress the biting chill.
Xie Xiangling walked to the Yimen angrily, and took the lead in getting into the Zhulun car, his face became more and more gloomy, and he was very dissatisfied: Whether it is the fourth prince or the third prince, it is the same! Without manly spirit, he will only allow others to bully him.
At this time, Mu Youjing also followed the Zhulun car, Xie Xiangling glanced at him quickly, and then looked away, looking at his slender and beautiful fingertips, with deep pupils.
She is his wife, his third princess, and his future queen, but he didn't defend himself!
Mu Youjing didn't notice Xie Xiangling's displeasure, and sat down beside her, still thinking about Wuyang and King Jian's mansion: After returning to the palace, he had to let the queen persuade Wuyang again.
He is bound to gain the military power of King Jian's mansion, even if he is wronged here in Wuyang now, what is it! Wuyang just didn't figure it out for a while, besides himself, is there a better choice for Wuyang?!
She is a princess, so it is impossible for King Jian's Mansion to stay out of the matter and become a pure minister!
Moreover, the queen is already tied to herself, and if it is someone else who is on the throne, the queen will not be good.
Wuyang doesn't think about herself, she should always think about her mother!
There is no hurry.
Mu Youjing stroked his sleeves slowly, and said to himself in his heart that Wuyang had just come back, and he was not in a hurry.
In the middle of his thoughts, the Zhulun slowly began to move under the whip of the attendant who pulled the cart, and left King Jian's mansion.
At the same time, Wuyang had also returned to the main courtyard from the Qinghui Hall in the outer courtyard, and Duanmu Fei was still playing chess in the east room, and the black and white chess pieces were scattered all over the half of the chessboard.
She was very attentive, holding a black spot between her fingers, and looked down at the chessboard in front of her.
The palace maid who was waiting for tea on the side opened her lips slightly, wanting to remind Duanmu Scarlet Wuyang that she was coming, but saw Wuyang raise her hand and make a gesture, signaling her to retreat.
The palace maid silently curtsied and staggered past Wuyang, who walked to Duanmu Fei's side and sat down on the opposite side of the chessboard.
Of course, Duanmu Fei couldn't ignore such a big living person, and after putting down the sunspot, he raised his head with a smile, looked at Wuyang's bright eyes, and said casually: "People are gone?" Of course, she was talking about Mu Youjing.
"Gone." Wuyang nodded, a cold smile on the corner of his lips, his expression was indifferent but firm, quiet and profound, "He, he really thought he was already sitting on that chair!" The villain has a will! ”
Wuyang was in front of Duanmu Fei, never shy away from talking, and what to say.
Originally, a sinister and ruthless villain like Mu Youjing, Wuyang didn't bother to pay attention to it at all, but the queen put herself in, and her feet were deep in the mud. At this moment, Wuyang has a kind of powerlessness in his heart that hatred is not made of steel.
Duanmu Fei saw that Wuyang was angry, and personally poured her a cup of flower tea, and thoughtfully delivered it to her to let her lower her anger.
Wuyang raised his head and drank half a cup of flower tea in one go, and muttered as if asking himself: "The queen mother's brain is broken, isn't the fourth emperor brother bad?!" The fourth emperor brother has been filial to his mother since he was a child, and he is well-behaved, but the queen mother chose to record the ruthless third emperor brother, isn't this leading the wolf into the room? ! ”
"And the Xie family, they are addicted to sending girls to opportunism!"
The more Wuyang thought about it, the more angry he became, the teacup in his hand was heavily placed on the square table in front of him, and he frowned and said, "No, this palace wants to enter the palace." If it goes on like this, the queen mother will really be killed by those fools in the Chengen Mansion. ”
It stands to reason that Wuyang can't enter the palace with filial piety, but ......
"Sister Scarlet," Wuyang looked at Duanmu Fei with a smile, leaned his face towards her, blinked his right eye, and asked, "Do you have a way?" ”
"......" Duanmu Fei looked at Wuyang, who was less than a foot away from her, with a subtle expression, and felt that this conversation seemed a little unreasonable.
Obviously, Wuyang is a princess, and she is an outsider...... Why did it become that he wanted to take Wuyang into the palace?!
Duanmu Fei and Wuyang looked at each other and smiled, stood up with a smile, and stretched out his hand to Wuyang to make an invitation, meaning, let's go.
The two said that they would go, Qingfeng prepared the vermilion wheel car as quickly as possible, and after a stick of incense, the vermilion wheel car drove from King Jian's mansion to the palace.
Wuyang has not been back to the palace since he got married, and he has returned to this place where he grew up again after a few months, and he really has a feeling of inexplicability.
It's her home, but it's not like a home.
According to the rules, she is a married princess, and she is also filial piety, so she can't enter the palace.
The Zhulun car stopped outside the palace gate, and the forbidden army guarding the palace gate frowned when they saw Wuyang get out of the car, and their expressions were slightly cold.
Immediately afterwards, Duanmu Fei followed Wuyang and got off the vermilion wheel, and the faces of those forbidden soldiers changed again, from cold to warm.
A forbidden military captain stepped forward quickly, and enthusiastically stretched out his hand to Wuyang and Duanmu Fei to make an invitation, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, four girls, please!" ”
Without saying a word, he just let the person in.
Duanmu Fei could only smirk and bow slightly at the other party, which was regarded as a hello.
The two walked forward unhurriedly, and Wuyang deliberately leaned into Duanmu Fei's ear and said jokingly: "Sister Scarlet, I really borrowed your light today." ”
Duanmu Fei could only giggle.
Wuyang and the queen's mother and daughter had something to say, Duanmu Fei thought that it was inconvenient for him to be there, so he simply parted ways with Wuyang in Qianqingmen.
"Sister Wuyang, then I'll go to the study to play with Cousin Hanxing."
So, Wuyang went directly to Fengluan Palace to see the queen, and Duanmufei walked in the direction of the upper study.
Who would have thought, before he found Hanxing, Duanmu Fei first saw the eldest prince and the fourth prince from a distance on the way, and the brothers were standing in an octagonal pavilion, not knowing what they were talking about.
The two princes also saw her and smiled at her.
Duanmu Fei stepped forward and greeted the two with a smile: "Cousin Xian, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince." ”
Mu Youxian asked with a smile, "Cousin Scarlet, are you here to find Hanxing?" ”
Duanmu Fei nodded, shook his head again, and confused Mu Youxian.
Duanmu Fei guessed that these two were afraid that they didn't know the news of Wuyang's return to Beijing, so they deliberately paused for a moment before explaining: "Cousin Xian, I sent Sister Wuyang into the palace, and by the way, I came to play with Cousin Hanxing." ”
Hearing Wuyang's name, Mu Youxian and Mu Youyi glanced at each other in surprise. Mu Youyi's eyes widened in surprise and blurted out, "The eldest sister is back!" ”
While speaking, Mu Youyi subconsciously took a step, but immediately put his foot back again, his expression was slightly stiff, and his eyes were bright and dark, as if hesitating, at a loss, as if worried, as if helpless......
The icy cold wind blew, and a remnant leaf swirled and landed on Mu Youyi's shoulder, and he didn't realize it, as if he was motionless like a stone sculpture.
Mu Youxian could probably guess Mu Youyi's thoughts, and when he thought of what had happened in the past few months, he sighed a little in his heart. He knew that it was inconvenient for Mu Youyi to go to Fengluan Palace now, so he thoughtfully proposed: "Fourth Emperor Brother, it is better to let people go to Fengluan Palace to keep an eye on it, and wait for Wuyang to come out in a while, and then we will go over." ”
"Brother Huang is right." Mu Youyi's slightly frowning eyebrows suddenly stretched, and there was a slight smile on the corners of his lips, and the smile spread to the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
A small chamberlain quickly took the order to retreat, and hurriedly walked towards the side of Fengluan Palace.
Mu Youxian looked at Mu Youyi, and said, "Fourth Emperor Brother, send Cousin Scarlet to the study first." ”
Mu Youyi guessed that Mu Youxian had something to say to Duanmu Fei in private, so he smiled knowingly: "Brother Emperor, please take care of yourself." ”
"Scarlet cousin, let's go." Mu Youxian smiled at Duanmu Fei, and the two walked side by side towards the south on the east side.
After walking through a corridor, Mu Youxian suddenly asked with concern: "Cousin Scarlet, when I went to pay New Year's greetings to my grandfather in the second year of junior high school, I saw that he had a little cough...... How is he lately? Mu Youxian's eyes flashed.
Duanmufei gave him a bright smile and said obediently: "Grandfather is just a little infected with a little wind cold, I stared at him and took medicine for three days, and it was fine." Don't worry. ”
Mu Youxian didn't stretch his brows because of this, and asked again: "Grandfather has been busy with official business recently?" ”
Although Duanmu Fei is not like Duanmu Xian's long-term followers who follow him all the time, she can really answer this question, "It's okay." I see that my grandfather has rarely rested in the palace lately, and he comes back every day to have dinner with us. ”
Mu Youxian pursed his thin lips, seemed to hesitate a little, hesitated for a moment, and then asked again: "Cousin Scarlet...... How is my grandfather feeling lately? ”
"......" Duanmu Fei looked at Mu Youxian's complicated eyes, and after hearing so many questions from him, he also noticed a little strange.
She blinked slowly, guessed and asked, "Cousin Xian, could it be that my grandfather was impeached by the imperial history again?" ”
Duanmu Fei also knew that Duanmu Xian had been impeached in the last year.
At that time, Wang Yushi impeached Duanmu Xian's concubine and killed his wife, and his moral character was lost. However, this incident did not make any waves at that time, after all, the courtiers are not stupid, Duanmu Xian is just two old aunts, where did they come from to be a favorite concubine, let alone kill their wives!
Therefore, Duanmuxian didn't say anything for himself at that time, and the incident passed silently.
"Not bad." Mu Youxian nodded, his expression became more complicated, and he stopped talking.
Duanmu crooked his little face, and asked calmly: "Is it impeachment of grandfather's favorite concubine and wife?" ”
Without waiting for Mu Youxian to answer, Duanmu Fei stuck out his tongue and said straight down: "If grandfather calls his concubine to kill his wife like this, then the whole of the capital can be impeached again!" ”
These envoys are really boring, so idle, they won't go to ask for the people's lives!
It's no wonder that my grandfather is so busy all day long, in fact, there are too many idlers in the court. Duanmu Fei gave Duanmu Xian a tear of sympathy in his heart.
Mu Youxian stared deeply at Duanmu Fei's innocent little face, but he shook his head and said astringently: "This time, Wang Yushi didn't say that his grandfather spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, but impeached him for killing his wife in his early years for climbing the He family, and raising the son-in-law left by his wife, and then after the He family was rejected by his father, in order to flatter his father, he locked up his steproom, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. They said that my grandfather had a loss of morality and was unworthy of being the first assistant. ”
Mu Youxian's dark eyes flashed with a strange light, and he looked straight at Duanmu Fei, with some worry, some nervousness, and some embarrassment.
After all, Duanmufei's own grandmother is the wife mentioned in the excerpt, and their sister's father Duanmulang, who died early, is the sister-in-law who was abolished.
"......" Duanmu's small mouth opened slightly, and this time, he was rarely shocked.
She was stunned for a moment before asking, "Cousin Xian, when did this happen?" ”
"Since the beginning of the year, there have been two or three folds every day, and three more ...... have been handed this morning," Mu Youxian said in a deep voice, "There are still people in the court who want my grandfather to be suspended from his post and investigated, and it is a shame for the court to say that the first assistant has a bad character." ”
Duanmufei really doesn't know about these things, the weather has been too cold recently, Duanmufei has been hiding in the house every day and hasn't gone out, Duanmuxian didn't say this to her when he came back, and his expression is okay these days, he didn't show any different colors, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"Cousin Xian, do you know how grandfather coped? Can you say anything? Duanmu asked.
Mu Youxian clenched his fists and said, "My grandfather only said in the first impeachment excerpt in the history of the royal palace that my grandmother was recuperating. Nothing else can be distinguished. ”
Mu Youxian's eyebrows wrinkled deeply with the word "Chuan", and he was very worried. After all, this is not a matter of "the clear self-purifying", in order to suppress the Duanmu family, he is almost certain that this matter will not stop there, but he is afraid that there will be a steady stream of evidence in the future, and even the so-called "witnesses".
For Mu Youxian, he didn't know how his grandfather's original partner died, and he had never seen his uncle Duanmulang, so he couldn't judge what was right or wrong in some of the past, so he could only rely on his understanding of his grandfather and felt that he shouldn't be that kind of person.
However, Mu Youxian was afraid that Duanmujun and Duanmufei would listen to these gossip, so he complained about Duanmuxian; Moreover, Duanmu Xian is also old, if he is angry......
Another biting cold wind blew violently, and Mu Youxian was unaware, looking at Duanmu Fei, who was only three steps away from him, worriedly.
Duanmu Fei raised his hand and gathered the cloak on his body, put on the hat of the cloak, and hid his whole body in the big cloak.
She thought for a moment, then raised her eyes to Mu Youxian's eyes, and said crisply: "Cousin Xian, don't worry, grandfather's current way of dealing with it is the best." ”
"......" Mu Youxian was still not at ease, and reminded, "Cousin Scarlet, it is useless for the Qing to clear himself in the court. ”
Duanmu bent the corners of his lips, and his big eyes were shining, like a cunning little fox, "The other party's intention should be to let grandfather release grandmother in order to prove his innocence." ”
Mu Youxian moved his eyebrows in confusion.
Duanmu Fei held the hand stove hidden in the cloak, and continued unhurriedly: "They impeached my grandfather for murdering his wife, and it was fake to raise his son-in-law, after all, those things have long been old things, and at most they will lead to a war of words, and no one can convict my grandfather." Therefore, they just used this as a reason to stir up trouble, Xiang Zhuang danced the sword, which was intended for Pei Gong. "It's really for He's.
"If my grandfather wants to argue, I can only let my grandmother out to prove his innocence."
As he spoke, the smile on Duanmu Fei's face deepened, revealing a pair of shallow pear vortices on his lips, and he smiled smartly, "So...... Just don't let them get their way. ”
Mu Youxian stopped, half-lowered his eyes thoughtfully, and his pupils gradually calmed down, like a deep pool.
Duanmu Fei also stopped, looked at the bright sun in the sky with a smile, and said in his heart: Anyway, whether or not to be convicted is not up to these envoys.
The two of them only paused for a moment, and then continued walking.
Duanmu Fei took out the pocket watch in his arms, looked at the time, and said in a soothing tone: "Cousin Xian, my grandfather has been in the court for so many years, and he has never encountered any strong winds and waves, so it's okay." ”
Duanmu's eyes are as clear as water, and the corners of his lips are always curved like a crescent moon.
Mu Youxian nodded in response, as if he was infected by her, his whole body relaxed, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and he felt that although his little cousin was young, he could see much more thoroughly than himself.
Moreover, looking at her appearance, she shouldn't believe that her grandfather killed his wife and eldest son, and Mu Youxian's half-hung heart was put down.
After finishing a matter on his mind, Mu Youxian remembered another thing, and changed his words: "Cousin Scarlet, Cousin Yan's side...... Don't worry too much. ”
Duanmu Fei subconsciously opened his eyes slightly, looking at Mu Youxian with burning eyes, waiting for him to speak.
Mu Youxian knew that there had been no military reports from the southern border in the past few months, and he was afraid that Duanmu Fei would worry about sealing the flames.
"Cousin Scarlet, the soldiers of the Southern Border Army are very good, you see that this palace has been in the Southern Border for more than two years, isn't it good?" He said softly.
Duanmu Fei heard Mu Youxian's kindness, and the smile on the corner of his lips became even stronger. She looked Mu Youxian up and down, and said playfully: "Well, Cousin Xian looks taller and fatter." The South is a great place to be! Raise people! ”
Duanmu Fei said that Mu Youxian was "fat" just joking, but in fact, Mu Youxian has become a lot stronger than more than two years ago.
Mu Youxian couldn't help laughing when he was amused by Duanmu Fei, thinking that this girl would really coax people and make people laugh, no wonder she got along so well with Han Xing.
"Yes, raise people." He casually chimed in, and when the words came out, he felt that this sentence was really appropriate.
If he didn't go to the south, how would he know that he was just a frog at the bottom of a well!
Between thoughts, Mu Youxian's smile was filled with open-mindedness and relief.
Duanmu Scarlet blinked suspiciously, always feeling that Mu Youxian seemed to be a little different, but he couldn't say it.
While the two were talking, the upper study had already appeared a few feet away, and there was more fragrance of plum and other flowers and trees in the air.
Mu Youxian stopped under a sycamore tree and said with a smile: "Cousin Scarlet, the palace has been sent here." ”
"Show your cousin and walk slowly." Duanmu waved at him and said goodbye to him.
When Mu Youxian's back disappeared around the corner in front of him, Duanmu Fei familiarly touched the side of the class.
At this moment, it was quiet in the upper study.
Duanmufei secretly hid outside a window, looked in, and saw that the girls were all sitting in their positions in a regular manner, in class, and in the front was an old lady with gray hair, lecturing.
Duanmu looked at the place where Han Xing was always sitting.
Han Xing was sitting in the middle seat of the second row, holding his chin in a daze, his eyes were in a trance.
After a while, she was a little tired, adjusted her posture slightly, and then her gaze met Duanmufei's gaze.
Han Xing's eyes lit up like a lit lantern in an instant, and that look seemed to say, Cousin Scarlet, why are you here?!
Duanmu Fei felt that it was really difficult to answer this question with their current situation, so she could only use gestures to compare the direction of the hall, which meant that she went over there and waited for her to get out of class.
Hanxing couldn't wait, and stopped Duanmufei with gestures, and pointed to the back door of the class, indicating that she would take the opportunity to slip away.
From the perspective of the old lady, the movements in the classroom below were actually clear at a glance, and naturally he also saw Han Xing's small movements, and the corners of his eyes twitched.
He followed Han Xing's gaze, and when he saw that it was Duanmu Fei outside, he was immediately silenced, and continued to lecture as if nothing had happened.
Not only the Taifu, but also several princesses and companions in the study also noticed Duanmu Fei, and also noticed the small movements between the cousins, with subtle expressions.
Han Xing didn't care about the others at all, he looked at the old lady with burning eyes, and when he saw the old lady turn around to drink tea, he immediately got up as fast as he could, didn't even care about the bookcase, and ran away.
The old lady couldn't see it, but she could only pretend not to see it, and when Hanxing left, she turned her head and continued to class, as if she didn't notice that there was no one missing here.
After Han Xing slipped out of the class, he grabbed Duanmu Fei's little hand, and his heart was still pounding.
Both of them laughed silly, feeling as if they had done something bad together.
Han Xing happily pulled Duanmu Fei and trotted away, until he turned the corner and couldn't see the upper study behind him, so he laughed out loud, and the crisp laughter of the two little girls drifted away with the cold wind, and even the surrounding chill seemed to be washed away a lot.
"Scarlet cousin, why are you here?" After laughing, Han Xing grabbed Duanmufei's left arm and wrapped it affectionately, "Could it be that you changed your mind and want to accompany this palace into the palace for a few days?" ”
She doesn't want to enter the palace and be subject to so much red tape! Duanmu shook his head again and again, and said, "Cousin Hanxing, I'm very busy!" She made a serious appearance, "I came to the palace with Sister Wuyang." ”
Han Xing was suddenly diverted, and he didn't care about persuading Duanmu Fei to enter the palace for a while.
She also thought of it with Mu Youxian, she casually pulled the little chamberlain on the way to help her go to Fengluan Palace to watch, and she took Duanmu Fei to the imperial garden.
"Let's go, let's wait for the eldest sister to go, I haven't seen the eldest sister in this palace for a long time."
"Has she lost weight?"
"I must not have eaten good things in the temple, and it is rare to enter the palace to let the imperial dining room cook some good dishes and make up for it!"
"By the way, did Princess Jane come back with Xiaoxi?"
“……”
Hanxing walked all the way, said all the way, from Wuyang and Jian Wangfu to the wedding of the three princes yesterday, chattering like a sparrow, Duanmufei was responsible for listening, occasionally should be with a sentence or two, his mind was a little distant: I don't know how Wuyang and the queen talked......
------Off topic------
Good morning!
