Chapter 25: Abnormality
Mother, please say. ”
"Why don't we join forces."
Shangguan looked at her with a peerless smile unchanged, but did not speak.
Concubine Lan's heart was shocked, and she couldn't see the meaning behind his smile.
After a moment of silence, Shangguan Jue said: "Niangniang, do you know what kind of crime it is to provoke the relationship between ministers?" ”
Concubine Lan was stunned for a moment and said, "The concubine has no other intentions, just to prepare for a rainy day for the prince." Moreover, the concubine is just begging the prince to say a few kind words in front of the emperor, and she is just a gesture to you. ”
Shangguan Jue sneered: "Don't take other people's efforts as a reason for your own excessive demands. This king doesn't want to, and he has no obligation to help you. Niangniang is privately forming a gang, and this king should have never heard of such a thing today. ”
After he finished speaking, he turned to leave.
"The concubine will not let the prince work in vain."
Shangguan Jue paused, and raised his eyebrows at her with a little interest: "Then Niangniang, what are the benefits of this king?" ”
"The woman in the prince's mansion."
Shangguan Jieshi frowned slightly.
"Does the prince want her to survive?" She looked confident.
Shangguan peerless looked at her with deep meaning, and said in a low voice: "It seems that Niangniang knows everything about the movements in this palace." ”
Concubine Lan was a little stunned by his frightened eyes, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "It's because the prince is moving too much." ”
"This king doesn't like to be spied on." The softer his smile and the softer his voice, the more dangerous it became.
Concubine Lan naturally knew. However, she dared to find the Nine Princes, because she was determined to gamble.
"The prince came to this Wangxian Tower, presumably also to seek medical treatment. But you know that this incident made the emperor lose face. Even if the emperor doesn't pursue it, he may not be willing to let the master save people regardless of his previous suspicions. ”
Shangguan Peerless suddenly approached her. His deep, cold eyes stared at her face for a moment, and his expression was unfathomable.
Concubine Lan was uneasy and trembling inexplicably by him.
She knew that the Nine Princes were not easy to mess with. However, for the sake of the emperor's future, she had to take the risk of seeking skin with the tiger.
It's just that these nine princes have always acted as they please, and their minds are unpredictable, and she is really not half sure.
Until he got involved with Feng Qingge, she sent someone to spy on her, looking for opportunities.
"Concubine Lan has a little more brains than those women in the harem. But...... This king has always hated people who think they are wise. This king has never been a lenient person, so I guess Niangniang has heard of it, right? ”
He smiled wickedly and dangerously, and a bloodthirsty chill swept up in his charming eyes: "I have to say that Concubine Lan is very courageous." ”
Concubine Lan was terrified.
She knew very well what would happen if she offended the Nine Princes. But hearing that Concubine Li seemed to be pregnant recently, she couldn't help but panic.
She thinks the same as everyone else, the Nine Princes disregarded the law and discipline and saved that Feng Qingge in front of everyone, presumably there must be some cattiness between the two.
I thought that Feng Qingge could take advantage of it. But now it turns out that she seems to have used the wrong chips.
She is not afraid of offending the Nine Princes. However, if you want to affect your family, you can't do it.
It's that she's not thinking about it enough. Realizing the seriousness of the problem, she panicked and wanted to make amends: "Lord Wang......"
"Do you really have a way to save her?"
Concubine Lan thought of a bunch of explanations and excuses when she was interrupted, she was stunned, and then she realized that she would come over and nodded busily.
——
My head hurts, my throat is dry, my stomach is hungry......
Ah Jiu slowly opened his eyes, stimulated by the bright light, and closed his eyes again.
"Niangniang, are you awake......" There was a joyful call in his ears.
Ah Jiu opened a slit, and only when he got used to the light did he see the person next to him clearly.
“…… As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his voice was hoarse and unpleasant.
"Mother, you're finally awake! Great, thank goodness, Buddha bless. ”
She saw her surroundings clearly: "I...... Didn't die? ”
"Niangniang Ji people have their own natural appearance, if they don't die in a catastrophe, they will have a blessing."
Ah Jiu recalled the previous scene and sighed in his heart: She can't die like this, her life is really big!
"It's the prince...... Saved me? ”
"yes. The prince sent people to salvage in the river for two days and two nights! When I brought you back, I was covered in wounds and dying. Then the prince is by your side and takes care of it without sleep...... Ah, I almost forgot what the prince told you to notify him as soon as you wake up......" With the voice, he turned around and ran out.
Ah Jiu crossed a few black lines on his forehead, and roared in his heart: You should give me a drink of saliva and something to eat first! The old lady is dying of hunger!
"Lord Wang, there is no General Shen in the team returning to Beijing. According to the inquiries of his subordinates, General Shen had left ten days ago. His henchman Bai Ze said.
Shangguan's peerless knuckled fingers tapped the agarwood tabletop for a while, his expression was indifferent, and his thoughts wandered.
Bai Ze waited for a long time, and saw that he didn't react: "Lord Wang? ”
Shangguan Jueshi finally responded, but asked, "How many hours has that divine doctor left the palace?" ”
Bai Ze was stunned, thought for a while, and replied, "It's about three hours." ”
Three hours later, there was no movement at all. Didn't you say you would wake up in about half an hour?
This quack! I had to tear down his signboard.
"The prince is worried about Concubine Xian?"
Shangguan glared at him with peerless displeasure, as if he was blaming him for his mouth.
Bai Ze smiled slightly: "The divine doctor said, the fastest half an hour, the slowest three or four hours." It's a blessing to be alive, and if you want to be completely sober, it depends on your own perseverance. ”
"What are you talking to the king about?" Shangguan's peerless and cold face revealed a trace of chagrin.
Bai Ze has been by the prince's side since he was a child, and although he doesn't understand it thoroughly, he can still guess his thoughts from some expressions.
It's just that our prince has always been proud. Bai Ze bowed his head and said, "My subordinates are too talkative." ”
Shangguan Peerless just snorted coldly, but he didn't bother with him.
This prince's temperament is really awkward.
When the concubine was still unconscious, the prince had been guarding her couch. The situation was getting better and he was about to wake up, as if he was afraid of being seen by her.
Sitting here absent-mindedly at the moment, I don't know how much the prince listened to his report just now?
Recently, some people in the DPRK and China have made a big fuss about the matter of concubines. People who had been angry with the prince secretly signed a joint admonition, asking the saint to punish him severely and reduce part of the prince's power. However, the emperor has always avoided it on the grounds that he is ill, which makes people wonder about the holy will.
This Nalan Kang and the prince have always had a disagreement, and all kinds of open and secret battles. Especially in the matter of establishing the crown prince, they are afraid that the prince will become a stumbling block for them, and they can't wait to get rid of it as soon as possible. If it's just Nalankang's side of the force, it's not to be afraid. However, General Shen quietly returned to Beijing ahead of schedule, wondering if the two had teamed up to agree on some conspiracy behind their backs.
You must know that General Shen is the number one strong enemy of the Nine Princes, and the two are equally powerful, so they can be said to be the emperor's right-hand man. At this moment, they should have taken precautions.
Perhaps, you can consider Concubine Lan's proposal to form an alliance with the Gao family......
Knock, knock –
A knock on the door interrupted Bai Ze's musings.
"Lord Wang, the slave and maid pothos have something to see."
Pothos?
Generally, subordinates are not allowed to come to the prince's courtyard without authorization, and if there is something to do, it is conveyed through the manager.
Who is so bold?
Before Bai Ze could think of this person, he heard his own prince respond: "Come in." ”
Pothos waited anxiously outside the door. Because she entered the prince's yard, she remembered the rules, but the prince told the mother to notify him as soon as she woke up.
Hearing the master's permission, the pothos breathed a sigh of relief and walked in respectfully.
"Lord, the mother is awake."
Bai Ze suddenly realized, it turned out to be a maid who served Concubine Xian, no wonder there was special treatment. He glanced at the prince meaningfully.
Shangguan Jueshi looked indifferent, did not speak immediately, but pretended to be attentive and bowed his head to read the official document that appeared in his hand at some point. After a while, he hummed nonchalantly.
The pothos was a little confused by the prince's cold reaction. She thought that the prince would be very happy to hear that Niangniang woke up!
Bai Ze glanced at the confused little girl, and said with a smile in his heart: Our prince is pretending again.
After waiting for a long time, I heard him ask lightly: "How is the situation?" ”
"Back to the prince, Niangniang is still very weak, and she doesn't even have the strength to speak......"
Shangguan's peerless fingertips paused slightly, and his low eyebrows and lowered his eyes made it impossible to observe his demeanor at the moment.
Pothos reported truthfully. And then...... The master began to be cold again.
can't wait for the next command, and the pothos doesn't know whether to stay or go.
After a while, Shangguan Jue raised his head faintly and looked at her coldly: "What are you doing here, waiting for this king to reward?" ”
What a stupid slave! Can you not be weak after two days in a coma? Don't let the kitchen make some porridge for the woman to replenish her strength, and stand here like a log.
"Uh, slave, slave and maid quit......" she bowed and hurriedly withdrew.
Closing the door, the poor little girl wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, and her heart palpitated.
This prince's temper really comes as soon as he says it.
Bai Ze stood quietly aside, looked and looked, and stopped talking.
Finally, I couldn't help but speak: "Lord Wang." ”
Shangguan peerless focused on the pile of official documents.
"Or ...... Check it out. ”
Shangguan peerless raised his eyes and glared at him. After a while, he hummed indifferently: "This king still has a bunch of official affairs to deal with, what is there to see." ”
Bai Ze coughed lightly and said, "Lord Wang, your official document ...... Take it upside down. ”
Shangguan peerless looked at it, a trace of embarrassment flashed on his cold face, and his eyes became more and more cold.
Bai Ze pretended to be casual and rolled his eyes, looking east and west, his mouth pursed so that no smile could leak out. lest the master be annoyed and embarrassed, and send him some thorny questions.
Distracted in front of his subordinates, Shangguan was a little annoyed. He simply threw the official document in his hand on the table and got up to leave.
"You don't have to follow this king." Shangguan Jue coldly dropped a sentence and walked out of the study.
Bai Ze bowed his head and respectfully watched the arrogant back of the prince leave, only then did he dare to relax his facial expression and smile.
The prince has a cold and indifferent temperament, and he always looks at things other than himself coldly and transparently. There was always that casual lazy evil smile on his face, as if no one or anything in this world could provoke his emotions.
Although the prince of his family has always liked to oppose the court, he is afraid that the world will not be chaotic. Especially when it comes to the emperor, it's never a big deal. In his eyes, there is no regular ethics, only hobbies.
Therefore, he was not surprised that the prince intervened in this matter. It's just that...... Now the prince has a little abnormal behavior, which makes him slightly uneasy.
After all, the emotional bond between a man and a woman often starts with interest......
