Chapter 262: Fishing in Troubled Waters
"It's because of the imperial concubine." The merciful nobleman smiled: "I swore before entering the palace that I would be inseparable from the imperial concubine, and I would do whatever it took to make enemies with the concubines in the palace, and I would get what I wanted!" ”
Yu Ying turned to look at her: "What is my aunt doing with you?" Why do you insist on entering the palace with a good future? ”
"Because your aunt hurt my own sister!" The eyes of the poor nobleman became gloomy: "My own sister of my mother's compatriots." ”
"You are talking nonsense, my aunt doesn't even dare to kill a chicken, how can she kill someone?" Yu Ying spoke sharply.
Hearing this, the poor nobleman laughed presumptuously: "I said Miss Yu, you haven't seen your aunt for many years, do you think she is still the same as before?" How can a person who can gain a firm foothold in this palace and give birth to two princes be a good person? ”
"You talk nonsense! If you're talking nonsense, I'll call my aunt!" Yu Ying didn't want to believe it.
The pity of the noble man took away the smile on his face, and said: "You believe it, or not, your aunt did harm my sister, at the palace banquet, my sister was taken into the palace by my mother, she fell in love with my sister at a glance, and asked my sister to enter the palace to fight for her favor, my mother is unkind, my father is ignorant, my sister for our future, in the end, she promised the imperial concubine, and she arranged to enter the palace, with my sister's appearance and talent, she soon entered the eyes of the emperor, and was crowned a nobleman, just like me now, not long after, She was pregnant, she was dedicated to doing things for the imperial concubine, but unfortunately after having a child, she was selfish, the imperial concubine could no longer tolerate her, and cared for her on the surface, but in private she bought the imperial doctor to do something to her, causing my sister to have a difficult birth, one corpse and two lives! After I entered the palace, I did everything possible to find out the truth, just to make her pay the price one day! ”
Yu Ying was frightened when she heard this, her feet were weak, and she sat down on the wooden chair, her mind blank.
The hatred in her eyes is not fake, could it be that her aunt really killed someone?
"She hurt my sister, blood debt and blood repayment, I always have to expose her, Miss Yu can tell the imperial concubine, so that she can be mentally prepared." The noble man's tone was calm, and he was really not afraid of the purpose being exposed.
Yu Ying raised her eyes to look at her: "What are you going to do when you tell me this?" ”
"It doesn't matter if the girl doesn't believe these words, she now wants you to enter the palace to share my favor for her, and then there must be a move, if the girl insists on not complying, with her temperament, it is bound to make some extraordinary means, the means in the palace, the girl doesn't understand, but I am familiar with it."
"You're going to help me?"
"Nature is not about charity."
"Let's go." Yu Ying no longer paid attention to the noble man, and closed her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes.
The corners of the noble man's mouth lifted slightly, and after glancing at Zhong Ling, he pushed the door and walked out.
Zhong Lingmu sent her away, her eyes deepened, since she was so confident, she wanted to come to the imperial concubine to make a move.
Yu Ying raised her head and smiled bitterly at Zhong Ling: "Little Wu, she said that her aunt killed someone,
Do you believe it or not? ”
"You already have the answer in mind."
After lunch, Mama Wang came again.
Although he was bent down and standing in front of Yu Ying, the words he said were complaining.
"Miss, I heard that the noble man has been here today?"
"Yes!" Yu Ying knew that she couldn't hide it, so she simply admitted it generously.
"This poor noble man is thoughtful, and she is afraid that she is not at ease when she suddenly came here today, what did she say to the young lady?"
"It's just a trivial matter to talk to me, just saying that he is the same age as me, and he is particularly close to me." Yu Ying still didn't tell her about the noble man.
Hearing this, Mama Wang said in a deep voice: "No matter what, it's better for Miss to stay away from her." ”
"I've written it down, I wonder if Mama has anything else to explain to me?" Yu Ying asked out loud.
Mama Wang smiled and said, "The county lord asked the young lady to have dinner together in the evening, and asked the young lady to change the newly purchased clothes and let the county lord take a look." ”
"Then I'll go with Qiu Niang!" Yu Ying subconsciously wanted to bring Zhong Ling with her.
"This ...... The county lord said, let the young lady go alone. Mama Wang's face was embarrassed.
Zhong Ling glanced at Yu Ying, Yu Ying pursed her lips and responded: "Okay, please go back and tell your aunt that I will definitely go before dinner." ”
"The old slave will go and tell the county lord!" Mama Wang turned around and walked out.
Yu Ying took Zhong Ling's hand, inexplicably flustered: "I always feel uneasy." ”
"If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid the emperor will come tonight."
"So what should I do?" Yu Ying panicked.
"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth." Zhong Ling patted the back of her hand.
Before dinner, Mama Wang sent someone to urge her again, and specially explained that Yu Ying went alone.
"You follow their wishes, and if something goes wrong later, I will naturally have me."
"Okay." Yu Ying nodded.
Outside, Mama Wang was urging again, Yu Ying had to push the door and walk out, Zhong Ling sat on the windowsill, and the imperial concubine's room was behind the windowsill, with an unobstructed view.
Yu Ying followed Mama Wang into the house together, Qi Er was not in the house, Yu Ying was a little surprised, on weekdays, the imperial concubine couldn't wait to take care of this child in person all the time.
"Auntie, where's Qi'er?"
The imperial concubine pulled Zhong Ling to sit down, and said with a smile: "The monkey yelled that he was hungry early, and went to sleep after feeding and eating a bowl of milk skin, don't worry about him." ”
Mama Wang walked in with a bowl of lotus root noodles and said with a smile: "Today's kitchen made lotus root noodles, which is a seasonal thing, and preserved fruits are added. ”
Yu Ying really likes to eat sweet, she only eats milk these days, and she can't help but be happy when she sees lotus root powder, so she took it from Mama Wang's hand and said with a smile: "It's hard for Mama to remember." ”
picked up the soup spoon and was about to eat, but the imperial concubine stopped her!
"Wait, the emperor sent an internal official
came, saying that he was going to come to dinner tonight, you don't have to be restrained in front of me, but the emperor wants to come, you still have to be scrupulous. ”
Yu Ying looked at the smile on the imperial concubine's face, only felt cold, nodded lightly, put down the soup spoon, and lost her appetite anymore.
After a while, there was a sound outside, and the imperial concubine laughed: "I'm afraid the emperor is coming." ”
With that, he pulled Yu Ying and stood up to greet the holy driver.
The emperor pushed open the door and walked in alone, and the imperial concubine pulled Yu Ying to kneel.
"The concubine has seen the emperor."
"Get up!" The emperor waved his hand, but his gaze fell on Yu Ying.
The imperial concubine saw it in her eyes and nudged Yu Ying, Yu Ying came back to her senses and hurriedly followed suit.
"Get up, your own family, don't be restrained." The Emperor strode over to the table and sat down.
Yu Ying stood up with the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine glanced at Mama Wang by the door, and Mama Wang quietly withdrew.
Yu Ying sat back at the table with her head down, the emperor and the imperial concubine sat diagonally opposite, and a palace maid came up to cook for them.
The imperial concubine said with a smile: "This child is extremely lively in front of me, and when the emperor comes today, he has become a stuffy gourd." ”
"The widow looks at him but also has a lively temperament." The Emperor's lips curled up.
The imperial concubine had a smile in her eyes, and smiled and put the lotus root box into Yu Ying's bowl: "This is the emperor's favorite dish, it takes a lot of effort to make this dish, Ying'er also tastes it." ”
Yu Ying looked at the lotus root box in the bowl in a daze, and felt a little mixed in her heart, aunt, auntie, do you know that at the emperor's age, he can be my father.
Not long after, Mama Wang walked in from outside the house, holding a wine jug in her hand, and handed it to the imperial concubine.
The imperial concubine picked up the wine jug and said with a smile: "This is a good Huadiao wine, I heard that the emperor is coming to specially let the grandmother go down to get it, and the emperor will come to taste it." ”
"The widow is glad today, but this wine has come at the right time." The emperor poured himself a full cup by the imperial concubine.
After pouring the cup, the imperial concubine turned to look at Yu Ying.
"Ying'er want to taste it?"
Yu Ying subconsciously resisted, and said with a dry smile: "My aunt also knows, I don't know how to drink alcohol, and the emperor is here today, so it's better not to be ugly." ”
"That's just as well." The imperial concubine chuckled and put the wine jug down, Yu Ying lowered her head, not seeing the smile on the imperial concubine's lips.
The emperor took a sip of the wine cup and said with a smile: "I don't know how old Ying'er is this year." ”
"Your Majesty, Ying'er is two years younger than the poor noble, and her birthday just passed a few years ago, just in time!"
The imperial concubine deliberately accentuated the word "Hexuan", and the smile on the emperor's face deepened: "Ying'er looks still young, but I didn't expect that she was already in time." ”
Yu Ying lowered her head, trying to ignore the burning gaze above her head.
On the other side, Zhong Lingjing looked at the flickering lights in front of her, and a pillar of incense burned out behind her, she didn't wait any longer, and called: "Someone."
Na! ”
A palace maid walked in from outside the door, lowered her eyebrows and said, "What does the girl command?" ”
"Come closer, I have something to explain to you." Zhong Ling raised his eyes to look at her.
The palace maid did not doubt him and took a few steps forward.
"Come here!" Zhong Ling beckoned to her, and the palace maid bowed her head very obediently.
Zhong Ling suddenly raised his hand and knocked the back of her head and neck, the palace maid's eyes were dark, and she fell forward, Zhong Ling took her and took off her clothes with her hands and feet.
After changing into a palace maid's clothes, he followed the palace maid's appearance and curled his hair, fortunately, the style was simple, Zhong Ling reluctantly tied his hair well, pushed the door and walked out.
The palace maid outside the door asked aloud, "What does the girl inside have to explain?" ”
"The girl said that she was a little tired of eating too much at night, so she ordered me to make a pot of tea.
When the palace maid heard this, a trace of disdain appeared on her face, and she lowered her voice and scolded: "I think it's just because of Miss Yu's momentum, she dares to point fingers at us." ”
"Who's to say it's not, it's better to complain less, lest it be urged again." Zhong Ling said, raised his feet and walked forward.
These palace maids don't stammer her on weekdays, asking her to say a few nice words in front of Yu Ying, but they don't want to talk about her like this behind her back.
After walking a few steps forward and meeting a few palace maids, Zhong Ling greeted him and asked aloud: "Dare to ask Sister Ji, where is the Jade Palace?" ”
A few people looked at each other a few times and said with a smile: "Are you new here, you don't even know about the Jade Palace?" ”
