Chapter 128: Sympathy
The boy's wailing voice was muffled.
was twisted by willow smoke and disappeared in front of several people.
Murong Yu led Jiang Ran upstairs, and this time he went to the same suite that had entertained Jiang Ran before.
Close the door, the hustle and bustle outside the door is all cut off, and the sound insulation of this room is very good.
Murong Yu put away the wild and uninhibited look on his face at this time, and frowned slightly, "You are getting bolder and bolder, what is a girl's family doing here!" There was a tone of reproach.
Jiang Ran raised his head and retorted boldly, "You didn't invite me here before. ”
Murong Yu raised his eyebrows, "That's different, the time you came, I closed the whole fishing boat for three days in advance." ”
Jiang Ran was slightly stunned. She didn't know that he had locked up the fishing boat for her and sang three days late.
Immediately lowered his head, "I'm going to make an important decision, and I want to ask you something important first." ”
Murong Yu couldn't bear to reproach her, but said, "Although this is an elegant place, it is difficult to guarantee that I will not meet a disciple like Fang Cai, if I am not here today......"
Jiang Ran's right hand was taken out of his sleeve and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I brought a silver needle, if you don't come, I'll teach him a lesson." ”
When Murong Yu saw her say this, he couldn't help but think of her previous experience, and his heart was distressed.
Immediately, even he himself was stunned, he realized that he was unconsciously touched by this girl too many emotions, his face changed, and he was about to speak.
Jiang Ran already smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will never be as stupid as before, there are many acupoints on people's bodies, teach a person a lesson, you don't have to pierce the acupuncture hole." ”
She would never put her life into it for such a person again.
Murong Yu listened, and didn't speak for a long time, and there was an indistinct emotion flowing between his eyebrows. In the end, he just spit out two words, "Silly." ”
In order to hide the emotions in his heart, he poured a cup of tea and handed it to Jiang Ran.
This is a pot of flower tea.
Fragrant.
When Jiang Ran took it, his fingertips inadvertently touched it, and the expressions of both of them were a little unnatural.
Jiang Ran poured thanks, just picked up the cup and took a sip gently.
Murong Yu had returned to normal, his voice was clear, and he asked, "You came here today, but what is the important matter?" ”
Jiang Ran let go of the tea, she brushed her thoughts, and then said unhurriedly, "I want to ask, the Jiang family's demise was only because his father refused to save Xu Changgongzi, and the Xu family held a grudge?" Or," she asked cautiously, "is there a reason for you?"
Murong Yu's eyes narrowed halfway, and he didn't answer and asked, "What about you, is your inference biased towards the previous or the next?"
Jiang Ran calmed down and lightly opened his lips, "I guess it's because of you." ”
Although there are two words of speculation, it is a very positive tone.
Murong Yu raised his hand and motioned for her to continue.
Jiang Ran said his thoughts word by word, "When the Xu family proposed to withdraw from the marriage, it happened that Xu Changgongzi was ill, and at this time, my father said that he needed the eldest son to get married and have children before he could let go of Xu Gongzi's treatment. I thought that my father deliberately said this in order to cling to the Xu family, and the Xu family also held a grudge because my father used marriage to threaten each other, but I later found out that this was not the case! ”
Murong Yu was a little interested, and his voice was smiling, "Then where do you think the suspicions are?" ”
Jiang Ran said slowly, "Father's words and deeds show that he never cared about this marriage, if it wasn't for clinging to the Xu family, then there must be other reasons." As for the Xu family. ”
"As for the Xu family," Murong Yu took over, "If the Xu family is resentful, they only need to wait for you to pass the door, coax Ling Zun to heal Xu Wangqian, and then snub you, or divorce you, more than a way to retaliate." ”
Jiang Ran also thought so, she looked at Murong Yu suspiciously, waiting for Murong Yu to continue.
"You're right, there are other reasons, and it's me."
Murong Yu sat on the Taishi chair and said slowly, "You probably don't know, who is this Xu family acting on?" ”
When Jiang Ran heard this, he seemed to guess who Murong Yu was talking about.
"This Mrs. Xu's maiden name is Xia Chan, and she is a big palace maid next to the concubine."
Jiang Zhengtang used to be the head of the palace in the palace, and Jiang Ran occasionally followed him into the palace. I also know a little about things in the palace.
This concubine is the distant cousin of the former queen, with a docile temperament, and she is also gentle and beautiful.
The first queen was not in good health, so this cousin often went to the palace to accompany her, and later was taken by the emperor and was canonized as a virtuous concubine. Even if she is a concubine in the palace, this cousin also abides by her duties and respects the former queen in everything.
It was at this time that Concubine Xian gave Xia Chan, the palace maid next to her, to Xu Taishou as a continuation.
This was also approved of by the Empress beforehand.
Even the marriage between the Jiang and Xu families was mentioned with a smile by Concubine Xian.
Once the first queen walked in the palace, Concubine Xian disregarded her own safety and rescued the young Murong Yu, and then the emperor was grateful, praised by hundreds of officials, and was once canonized as a concubine.
Even if she is a concubine, she is still simple and gentle, and she goes to the queen's palace every day to talk to the queen.
Even when the matter between the former empress and Jiang Zhengtang was rendered in the palace, the concubine still stood up and begged for mercy, and in order to seek the emperor's forgiveness, she knelt in front of the imperial study for two hours, and even fell ill.
After the death of the first queen, the concubine fainted from crying, and finally took the initiative to ask Ying, willing to take care of the young son left by the first queen, that is, Murong Yu's younger brother who was less than a year old.
Up and down the court, whoever mentions the concubine is not a few praises.
If in the past, according to Jiang Ran's temperament, she would definitely not associate everything with this docile and virtuous concubine, but now, she would not think like this.
People's hearts are unpredictable, and she sees them better than anyone else.
In this world, even the biological father can't be trusted, who else can be trusted?
"In this way, the concubine is the person behind this scene."
Murong Yu's eyes were like stars, bottomless, "That's right." ”
But Jiang Ran looked at him clearly, and there was a hint of gloom in his eyes.
If she didn't guess wrong, before Murong Yu entered the barracks, that is, before he was five or six years old, this noble concubine took him and rescued him from the fire regardless of his safety.
In the world, the feelings born when you are a child will accompany you for a lifetime.
He should genuinely respect the concubine.
But then he knew that when this dear relative he thought was actually calculating, he should have been miserable in his heart!
This feeling is no clearer than Jiang Ran.
"Mu Gongzi," she wanted to comfort him.
Murong Yu suddenly turned his head, "You call me Ah Yu," he said and sighed, "I have too little time with the queen mother, she called me like this at that time, the time has been so long, I have forgotten what it was like." ”
Ever since she met him, he had always been chic and uninhibited, as if nothing in the world had ever been placed in his heart.
