Chapter 134: Gossip
"Sure enough, it's the daughter of the general, and that kind of disciple should also be taught a lesson. Don't call yourself a courtier, it sounds awkward. I haven't been married to Yunguo for a long time, and I'm not very familiar with this place, would Miss Yu be willing to be a guide for me? ”
She also likes this woman's temperament, which fits her eyes quite well.
Yu Xuezhi was a little flattered, I heard that the queen is deeply favored by today, and her status is noble, how can she be so approachable?
Mu Ranyue saw her hesitation, and pretended to be lost: "What, don't you want to?" ”
"No, of course not," Yu Xuezhi waved her hand hurriedly, "It's just that I really think, well, flattered, if the mother doesn't dislike it, of course the courtiers are willing." ”
Mu Ranyue immediately said happily: "Don't bite a courtier's mouthful, it sounds weird and awkward." ”
Yu Xuezhi nodded, and her heart relaxed a lot, but she never thought that the queen who favored the sixth palace had such an approachable side, and didn't the queen stay in the deep palace, how could she go out shopping?
She herself is also lively and bold, and she is quite familiar with herself, just now she was a little unable to let go because of Mu Ranyue's identity, and now seeing that Mu Ranyue is so friendly to her, she has almost recovered her nature.
Talking and laughing along the way, the only bit of mustard left in my heart is basically gone. And she was afraid that Yunshang would not feel comfortable following them, so she let her go back to the palace first.
"It's noon now, can Sister Yu introduce a restaurant?" Mu Ranyue asked.
Yu Xuezhi said: "It's better to go to Shunyang Zhai." Although this shop is not the best in Hengyang, the taste is still very good, do you want to try it? ”
"Since you recommended it, of course I'm going to go."
This Shunyang Zhai is built near the Lanjiang River, two floors high, the carved eaves reflect the sun, the painting building flies the clouds, looking at it from afar, it seems that there is a fairy mist.
A few people walked in, the store was almost full, it was very lively, Yu Xuezhi wanted to take her to the private room on the second floor, but Mu Ranyue wanted to stay on the first floor, and she could also listen to gossip by the way.
They found a vacant seat by the window and sat down, just in time to look at the river view outside the window.
Immediately, Xiao Er came over with a smile on his face and asked them to order, Mu Ranyue looked at the menu casually, and the names of the dishes on it were very elegant, and she couldn't tell that they were the names of the dishes at all, so she didn't know what those specific things were, whether they were delicious or not.
She handed the menu to Yu Xuezhi: "I don't understand any of the dishes on this, Sister Yu take a look, do you have any dishes you want?" ”
Yu Xuezhi took it and looked at it, she had come here to eat once, and she was still a little familiar, because she pointed out: "These signature dishes are good, otherwise order these?" ”
Mu Ranyue nodded, she didn't understand anyway, since Yu Xuezhi said it was good, then it was really good.
"Wait a moment, girl." Xiao Er took the menu and bent down to retreat.
"Sister Yu has been here?"
Yu Xuezhi nodded: "When I first came to Hengyang, my brother took me here once. ”
Mu Ran Yue said curiously: "Aren't you from Hengyang?" ”
"Hmm. My parents used to be stationed in Qinzhou, and I grew up there. A few years ago, his parents passed away one after another, and his brother was meritorious, and his son inherited his father's business, and was awarded the post of general, so he returned to Hengyang. ”
"The border city is hard, and my sister has not had a good time in those years." Mu Ranyue frowned slightly.
Yu Xuezhi smiled slightly: "Actually, it's okay, at that time, I was favored by my parents, and I was carefree." On the contrary, after coming to Hengyang, I have to abide by all kinds of rules, but I am not so comfortable. ”
Mu Ranyue was deeply touched by this: "My sister is right. In the capital, everyone is a dignitary, and their words and deeds are seen by others, and they have to take it out and talk about it, which is indeed a lot less comfortable. ”
"I didn't expect Niangniang to be a temperamental. I used to think that the queens were all women in the deep palace, dignified and dignified, and not smiling. I didn't expect to see the queen out shopping today. Yu Xuezhi boldly teased.
"Haha, now it's an eye-opener for you." Mu Ranyue said with a smile.
"Yes, but Niangniang opened my eyes. However, it is rumored that today's love for Niangniang is like a treasure, and it seems that there is really no need. ”
Mu Ranyue raised her eyebrows slightly: "Oh? How so? ”
"Because, I really haven't heard of any emperor who would allow his woman to leave the palace alone."
Mu Ranyue was slightly stunned, and suddenly said: "Actually, I sneaked out, and Your Majesty didn't know about it."
"Sneaking?" Yu Xuezhi laughed and said, "That can better explain the love for Niangniang today." You have the guts to sneak away, isn't it just that you won't be treated like this? ”
Mu Ranyue was suddenly speechless by her, and her face was slightly red: "Sister Yu is really good at speaking." ”
"Looks like I guessed right. In fact, I just saw that although Niangniang was a queen, her eyes were as clear and innocent as a girl, and I felt that you were very happy in the palace. ”
Mu Ranyue smiled slightly, although this woman has a bold personality, she is also a careful person.
"Sister, don't talk about me, talk about yourself."
"Me? I don't have much to say. ”
Mu Ranyue refused to let her go: "Sister Fang Cai said that she is over eighteen, I don't know if I can get married?" ”
"Matching? Forget it. Yu Xuezhi sighed lightly, "Niangniang looks at me like that, which man can't hide far away?" ”
This is also what her brother often uses to discipline her, since she was sixteen years old, Yu Hua has been looking at her people, but after two years, the family has not taken a fancy to her, and she is basically scared away by her pungent personality.
Of course, at that time, she was also young and didn't want to get married, and at the same time, she didn't want to marry a man she didn't like, so she deliberately used a little trick to make them angry.
was so angry that Yu Hua dragged her to beat her for a long time, but she still didn't change, Yu Hua had no choice but to let her go.
"I don't believe this, it must be that my sister doesn't look down on them." Mu Ranyue teased.
"Don't make fun of me, mother, I also want to find someone I like." Yu Xuezhi said with a slight blush.
"Oh, has that sister found it now?" Mu Ran Yue had an ambiguous smile in her eyes.
Yu Xuezhi was about to speak, but suddenly heard a table of people behind her talking, and the queen of the dynasty was also mentioned in that conversation, she looked at Mu Ranyue's face and fell silent.
only listened to one person: "Eh, do you know, our current queen mother is a fine work sent by the Chu State." ”
Mu Ranyue's face changed slightly, she thought that this matter had passed, but she didn't expect that the night would become an after-dinner conversation in the wine shop, she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart, sure enough, even in ancient times, gossip was people's nature.
Yu Xuezhi was angry and anxious, she had faintly heard this rumor at the beginning, but hadn't His Majesty already rehabilitated the queen?
And when she got along with Mu Ranyue today, she never believed that the woman in front of her would be a fine work, so she couldn't help but want to get up and stop the conversation between those people.
Mu Ranyue shook her hand lightly, signaling her not to move, she wanted to hear what these people would say.
Another exclaimed, "How is this possible? You're talking nonsense, right? ”
"Shhhh How dare I talk nonsense about this kind of thing, you also know what my father does, this thing is absolutely not fake. ”
The man swore by it, and the faces of the other people suddenly changed greatly, and their eyes were full of indignation. However, there are still doubts.
One person slapped the table vigorously: "In this case, why don't you kill the queen today, do you still have to wait for the queen to mess up our Yunguo?" ”
"Our majesty, but a lord who loves beauty and doesn't love the country." The man said quietly.
"Love beauty or don't you love the country? How is this possible? ”
"Yes, Your Majesty knew about this, but did not punish the queen in any way, but still favored her. King An, no, now he is the king of Pingyao, I heard that after he learned about this matter, for the sake of the country of Yunguo, he took the ministers to kneel and beg His Majesty to dispose of the queen, in order to keep the queen, he pushed the matter to the maid brought by the queen from the state of Chu, and ordered that if anyone dared to talk about the queen, he would be beheaded directly, and the ministers who were admonished at that time were punished, and the king of Pingyao was also demoted and dismissed because of this matter. ”
"I know that, too." The other nodded, "But didn't Your Majesty say it, was the queen framed by that maidservant, why do you still say that?" And after King Pingyao led his ministers to force His Majesty to abolish it, he also suffered it himself. ”
Others chimed in.
"That's just that Your Majesty pulled someone to make a cushion for the Empress, and the Empress is doing this carefully, but the Prime Minister personally went to His Majesty with the evidence, and I heard that His Majesty has now destroyed the evidence."
"How is this possible? How could Your Majesty be so mediocre? ”
"What's impossible? Even his throne came from nowhere. He killed Prince Heng and persecuted the Emperor Taishang, so that he could ascend the throne. After ascending the throne, he drove the Emperor Taishang to the Nanning Palace. ”
"This ...... Isn't it the edict of succession voluntarily issued by the emperor? ”
"Are you stupid? Emperor Taishang is in front of the emperor well, and he has great power, how can he suddenly take the initiative to Zen? ”
"yes." One person nodded, "Then our current emperor, he is really ruthless, but there is still a disaster around him, I see, if this continues, my big cloud will be finished sooner or later." ”
Several others also sighed one after another, as if they were worried about the future of their country.
"Presumptuous!"
Yu Xuezhi couldn't bear it anymore, so she turned around and shouted: "You dare to talk about Your Majesty and the Empress, don't you want to live?" ”
The voice was so loud that even Mu Ranyue was almost startled. sighed again in my heart, worthy of being born in Jiangmen.
In fact, for these gossips, she was also angry when she heard them at first, but in fact, what they said was not wrong, she was originally a meticulous work, even if Nangong Jinchen tried her best to cover it up for her, she couldn't hide this fact.
So she listened and listened, and she didn't feel anything.
