An Mingchen returned to the house in the afternoon, Huangfu Xue waited for most of the day, and was very happy to see her return safely, "Xianggong, what happened yesterday, why did you come back, do you know how worried I am." Hold him, lie in his arms, and finally let go of the hanging heart. An Mingchen's face was expressionless, and there was even a little anger in his eyes. Stand aside, motionless.

After half a ring, Huangfu Xue noticed an abnormality. Let go of your hand, look up, and look at him worriedly. "What's wrong with you, is something wrong?"

"It's fine." An Mingchen let go of her and walked to the side and sat down. Huang Fuxue felt that he was a little strange today, as if he didn't know him. Cautiously stepped forward, "If you're okay, there is something on my side, very urgent, you listen carefully." Maybe it's about the safety of Northern Chu. ”

An Mingchen was still expressionless. Huangfu Xue didn't care so much, and after sitting down, she said quickly, "I suspect that the princess and Nanyue are secretly interacting, and it seems that the purpose is not simple. He took out the exchanged secret letter and put it on the table, "Yesterday I intercepted the princess's secret letter, and I don't even know the words on it. I originally wanted to wait for you to come back and discuss it carefully, but I didn't expect the princess to get the news today, and she exchanged the secret letter for drunkenness. This secret letter is fake, but it shows that there is something wrong with the princess. Xianggong, you told me before that this matter is very important, and you said, should we tell the emperor about this matter as soon as possible? If something happens in the future, it will be too late to regret it. ”

"yes, I see." An Mingchen said this with a cold expression. An Mingchen is cautious and serious, but when it comes to national affairs, she will never be so perfunctory, and she has been very wrong since she just came back, and when she asked him, he didn't say it, and now it is even more like this, Huangfu Xue felt aggrieved in her heart, and felt that An Mingchen was dissatisfied with herself.

I wanted to get angry, but I was afraid that something had really happened to him, so I said this because I was uncomfortable. While thinking about it, a voice came from outside the door, "Lord An, the princess said that she has something to discuss with the princess, please come over." An Mingchen was not happy in his heart, and he didn't want to be angry with Huangfu Xue, so he had been forbearing, and when he heard that the princess was going to see him, he didn't want to stand up, "Okay, I'll go over now." ”

"Xianggong ......" Huangfu Xue became more and more surprised, he was worried that she was unhappy on weekdays, and he never took the initiative to go to the other courtyard, even if the princess came to find her, he would definitely have to ask his opinion before making a decision, but today, he didn't look at Ye and didn't look at her, he got up and left, why did he treat her like this, she has been obedient and obedient these days, staying in the mansion, never going anywhere, why is he still not satisfied.

If he has something on his mind, just say it, he has never been the kind of unreasonable person, if he needs it, she can still help him, didn't they do it like this before, why can't he this time, why does he know that she will be angry like this, why? Huangfu Xue held back her doubts and anger, and wanted to vent, but when the words came to her mouth, she looked at his tall back, and suddenly hesitated again.

"Xianggong will go early and come back early, and I will wait for you to come back and have dinner together." It's starting to get dark. If the prime minister was worried about him, he would definitely go early. That's what he's done in the past. But today...... Huangfu Xue sat at the table, waiting left and right, until the palm lamp was ten and An Mingchen did not come back, the magpie was worried about her, and came to urge for the third time, "Miss, the hour is not early, you can eat first." My uncle may have something important to discuss, and he will come back later. ”

"No, I don't have an appetite." I got up and went to the window, and in the past few days, the sky has gradually warmed up, and the night is not as cold as before. Standing in front of the window, the cold wind blew little by little, but it made people sober up a lot, during this time, because An Mingchen was overly concerned and everything went well, she almost didn't remember what kind of character she was before.

She doesn't like this kind of herself, she used to be resolute, decisive, fight for what she wants, never care about the opinions of others, when did she start to be indecisive, suffering from gains and losses...... Didn't she say before, if it was hers, others wouldn't be able to snatch it away, if it wasn't hers, no matter how hard she tried, it wouldn't be his.

Another cold wind blew, Huangfu Xue was completely awake, patted his somewhat cold face, closed the window, and called the magpie, "Go and bring some food." I'm a little hungry. When the magpie heard this, he immediately laughed, "Yes, the slave and maid will go." "Since Huangfu Xue was pregnant, the West Courtyard has made a small kitchen, worried that she will be hungry quickly, and the kitchen is ready for food at any time. The magpie came back soon, and all the things in his hands were what Huang Fuxue liked.

"You know Miss Ben best. Magpie, why are you not a man, otherwise, I will marry you. After Huangfuxue figured it out, her mood was much better than just now, and the magpie joked, and the magpie said dogleggedly, "The slave maid thinks this is very good, and she can stay by the young lady's side every day, and the slave and maid are the happiest." Miss eat a little more, it's not enough to have it in the kitchen. ”

"Enough, what do you think of me. I don't digest it if I eat too much at night. After a simple meal, Huangfu Xue couldn't eat, couldn't sleep just after eating, took the magpie to the yard for a walk, and when he passed through the corridor, he heard a voice in the bamboo forest not far away. Both of them heard it, the magpie was in danger, and pulled Huangfu Xue to leave, "Miss, you go back first, the slave and maid will come over after finding someone." ”

"No, they'll be running away by the time you come over. I'll go with you. Huangfu Xue picked up two sticks from the ground and handed one to the magpie, "Take it, if necessary, do it again." "Listen to the voice, there is also a woman, who should be the maid in the house. In the middle of the night, what are they doing here, the magpie is worried about Huangfu Xue, and despite being afraid, he still walks in front.

"Miss, wait a minute, you just stand aside and don't move, there are slaves and maids in everything." The two walked very slowly, and when they were about to approach, the people inside noticed them and turned to run, but the magpie rushed forward and hugged the woman, no matter how much he struggled. The man was dressed as a small servant, and he seemed to be somewhat familiar, and Huangfu Xue knew who he was after thinking about it.

"You are the subordinate of the princess in the other courtyard, what are you doing here. What is your relationship? Seeing that Huangfu Xue had recognized him, the little girl knelt on the ground decadently, "Second Miss, Cui'er and I are in love, and I ask Miss to fulfill it." ”

The little guy avoids the important and light. Huangfu Xue squinted her eyes and stepped forward, "If you don't say it carefully, you and Cui'er won't see the sun tomorrow morning." "A few guards were on patrol, and when they heard a movement here, they came over and saw this scene. stepped forward to salute Huangfu Xue, "Second Miss, do you need help?" ”

"Take them to the West Courtyard, and I will interrogate them personally." This is not the place to talk, and this place is too remote, if the little girl is really ill-intentioned and does some extreme behavior, she and the magpie are afraid that they will not be able to get any benefits. The guards brought the people to the lobby, and Huangfu Xue left two guards to guard them before letting the other guards continue to patrol.

"Okay, now we can speak. Remember, if you talk nonsense in front of Miss Ben, or even deliberately conceal it, Miss Ben has a way to make you regret it. "The little maid is from the princess's yard, and it is hard to guarantee that the little maid is not a spy sent by the princess. Huangfu Xue blocked his retreat in order not to waste time. Sure enough, when the little guy heard this, his face changed a little.

"Yes, the little one knows." The little guy wiped a handful of cold sweat, knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully, "The little one's name is Chunxi." I used to be on an errand in the main courtyard, and the princess moved in before sending the small one over. The little one likes Cui'er, and is worried that the princess will not agree, so he sneaks around, and the little one knows that it is wrong to do this, and asks the second lady to punish him. ”

"Cui'er, is that so?" Cui'er is the maid of the West Courtyard, although it is to promote the maid, there is no need to serve closely, but the master is Huangfu Xue, this will be the master to ask, Cui'er is entangled, she doesn't know whether to tell the truth, what if she tells a lie and angers Miss, but if she tells the truth, what if Miss punishes Chunxi. Cui'er struggled for a long time without speaking.

"I don't know how to say it, it's okay, Miss Ben gives you a little more time, you can think slowly." Huangfu Xue was a little sleepy, holding her head and pretending to sleep. The magpie was worried that she would catch a cold, so she went to the house and got a cloak to cover him, and the time passed little by little, Cui'er still didn't mean to speak, and the magpie lost her patience, "Cui'er, Miss is kind-hearted, considerate of you, and have mercy on you, you can't let Miss down." Miss has a stomach and works tirelessly to make decisions for you, come out, is this how you repay Miss? ”

"No, Sister Magpie, I don't want this, I'm just worried...... Worried about ......"

"I'm worried that if Miss Ben knows the truth, she won't punish you, right, more specifically, will she punish Chunxi." Cui'er didn't expect Huangfu Xue to even know this, so she collapsed to the ground in fright, "Miss, I'm sorry, the slave didn't mean to deceive you, the slave really didn't dare to gamble." The slave maid's life is low, if it is not for the young lady, it is impossible to live in peace, I originally wanted to follow the young lady for the rest of my life, it is also excellent, and then I met the spring joy, the slave and the maid ...... The slave didn't like him at first, but it was Chunxi...... Chunxi coerced the slave maid to be with him, but the slave and maid were timid and didn't dare to tell the young lady, so they could only accept it. But later, the slave maid found out that Chunxi was sincere, and for the first time in so many years, someone was so good to the slave and maid, so the slave and maid ......"

"So you like her, and you don't care about the hurt she did to you before?" Huangfu Xue suddenly didn't know what to say, she thought that Cui'er had been hiding some big trouble for a long time, but she didn't expect it to be because of this. The coercion is indeed unforgivable, but now that Cui'er has fallen in love with Chunxi, if she punishes or obstructs her, her meaning will change. Rather than tear them apart and be wicked, it is better to fulfill them. It's just that this matter really doesn't have a good impact, if they want to be together, I'm afraid the Huangfu family won't be able to stay.

"Cui'er, have you figured it out, do you really want to follow him for the rest of your life? Even if you find out that these things are different from what you thought, and you even regret it, don't you change your attention? ”
