Chapter 504 Waiting
On the way, the delay of Feng Yuxuan because of the wind and cold quickly spread to Mu Yue's capital, and Mu Yue Nalan Ting didn't say much after learning about it, but just sent someone to spread the word, so that Feng Yuxuan could cultivate her voice and get married.
It's just that Nalan Ting is not in a hurry, but he is as anxious as ants on a hot pot who are watching from behind.
In their opinion, Feng Yuxuan, as the princess of Fuchen, if she can marry her, she will be able to pinch the power of Fuchen in the palm of her hand, at least other royal families will have to consider their identity as Fuchen's concubine if they want to attack them.
It's just that Feng Yuxuan is sick, at least she has to rest in the county for a few days, and even if she arrives in the capital, she has to recuperate for a long time.
And they didn't have this in their previous preparations at all, so they thought that all their previous preparations were in vain, which made them not in a hurry.
And at this moment, in Nalan Shu's mansion, Nalan Shu listened to the reports of those subordinates, and he felt a little happy in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a slight chuckle.
In this power struggle, he already has a great advantage as the crown prince, plus he is not yet married, of course he will not choose Feng Yuxuan as his crown princess, in his heart there is only one crown princess, that is Ning Xiyue.
Yes, as early as when his father wanted to marry Fuchen, he chose to quietly withdraw from this battle with his relatives, but he said that he had withdrawn, but he still had to know the news.
Because of this, it has nothing to do with him whether Feng Yuxuan arrived in the capital early or postponed, and he didn't even care much if Feng Yuxuan died on the way, of course, this was without infringing on his interests.
But what made him very irritated was that his people did not bring him the slightest news that night, and this made his whole face gloomy.
He had already met Xue Qingyu in the morning, and he learned something from Xue Qingyu about Xue Gong, the eldest lady of the Xue Mansion back then.
Of course, if it weren't for the big news, Xue Qingyu wouldn't have come to the door to say it in person.
Now he already knows that when the current Queen Mother was still Concubine Yan, she once gave birth to a princess, but the princess was weak and needed to find a suitable businessman to foster her, so it was because of the fact that Mrs. Xue became the benefactor of the Queen Mother.
This is also what Mrs. Xue has used Gu Yaxuan as a shield over the years, and even the fact that Mrs. Xue has become the lady in charge of the Xue Mansion from a slave to the head of the Xue Mansion was done behind the back of the Queen Mother.
And Xue Qingyu couldn't find out these things, in order to investigate this matter, he drunk his father Xue Hai several times, and later connected those news to have these complete clues.
When Nalan Shu first learned that Xue Gong was the daughter of the royal family, he was a little resistant to the news, because it meant that it would be very likely that he would not be able to be with her even if he left someone in Muyue.
Thinking like this, my heart became more and more irritable, the tea on the table had been changed cup after cup, but the irritability in my heart could not be suppressed.
And at this moment, Ning Xiyue of Bangxiangju was also waiting, because of Nalan Shu's words in the morning, she was worried and looking forward to something.
She was worried that Old Madam Xue killed her last time, although there was Nalan Shu this time, if this place was in Wutong Garden, even Nalan Shu would be helpless, after all, the person behind the family was Gu Yaxuan, the current Empress Dowager of Muyue.
In addition to worrying, the expectations in her heart were vaguely troubled, and her mind recalled the words that Nalan Shu said today, and she didn't feel anything at the time, but now that she thinks about it, it is a little meaningful.
"Miss, why don't you sit down and wait!" Xiaohe saw that Ning Xiyue was uneasy, pouted and reminded, and poured her a cup of tea.
She knew that Ning Xiyue was going to Xue Mansion tonight, although she did not support Ning Xiyue to return to Xue Mansion, but she also agreed when she thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was there, of course she informed Xue Qingyu.
Ning Xiyue sat on the stone bench, shook her head and sighed slightly, looked at the water circle rippling in the teacup, her face was dull, and she raised her eyes in the direction of Nalan Shu's study, didn't Nalan Shu say that she was going to Xue Mansion tonight, why hasn't anyone come here at this hour, or is there something going on?
"Xiaohe, you go to His Royal Highness the Prince's study later, and say that I am waiting for his news." She hesitated, then picked up the teacup on the table with her right hand and blew it lightly on her red lips.
"Yes, Miss."
After Xiaohe finished speaking, he turned around and entered the house, and brought out a plate of dim sum in front of Ning Xiyue, "Miss, you eat these dim sum first, and the slave will come back when you go." ”
If it is not early today, in fact, Xiaohe knows in his heart that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not come over again after such a late hour, after all, there is still a short distance to go to Xue Mansion, although it is not far.
It's just that she didn't say anything in detail, just looked at Ning Xiyue's appearance that she didn't know how to be, and secretly walked in the direction of Nalan Shu's study.
Ning Xiyue sat in the courtyard and looked at the sky, and then looked at the direction of Fuchen and Mu Yue, and there was a little more sadness in her beautiful eyes.
At this time, he should be in the capital soon! I don't know how he is now, whether he encountered any danger on the road, when she rode her horse to the capital that day, he should have arrived almost there, but I don't know why there is no one yet.
Ning Xiyue, Ning Xiyue, she is really confused, she has now become Mu Yue's person, and she will be brought to Mu Yue by Nalan Shu in front of Emperor Mu Yue in the near future, so what qualifications does she have to worry about him Feng Huayin!
Thinking like this, Ning Xiyue sighed and shook her head slightly, her eyes were already red under the night, but when the tears were about to fall, she looked up at the sky slightly, and held back the tears in her eyes.
After a long time, she cleaned up her mood, her eyes under the dark night pulled out a bitter smile, picked up the teacup on the table and drank it in one gulp, but then looked at the teacup in her hand with some astonishment, as if to say, why is this not wine? How nice would it be if this was wine, and wasn't this the time when she needed it?
"Alas, it would be nice if there was wine at this time, but this is Nalan Shu's house, and it's not easy for me to walk around as a guest, so it seems that I'll have to let Nalan Shu take him around the house another day." Ning Xiyue pinched the cup and slowly got up, and walked to the gate of the courtyard, which looked a little like she was drunk.
I don't know how long later, Xiaohe came back, looked at Ning Xiyue, who was asleep sitting on the swing in the yard, and hurriedly woke her up.
"Miss, Miss, wake up quickly, if you want to sleep, you have to go into the house to sleep, this is even more exposed, if you catch a cold, won't it make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince worry for a while." Xiaohe frowned slightly, and the gentle shaking of his hand was also extremely gentle.
