Chapter 67: Telling the Truth
Jiang Jingshu took a long time before adjusting her facial expression and squeezing out a smile, "Concubine Li, you see my ruddy complexion, where does it look like tossing and turning?" ”
Li Yan'e stared at her suspiciously for a while, "That'...... It's me who offends ......."
Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Jingshu interrupted her,
"I've always heard that there are many people outside who tell the truth and wrong, and they have a lot of complaints about the relationship between me and His Royal Highness, I didn't believe it, but I didn't think about it, but now this rumor has spread to Concubine Li's mother, it seems that the atmosphere of the people in the East Palace should be rectified."
"Lao Niangniang is worried, I will bother His Highness and His Highness another day. If there is something to do today, I will retire first. ”
After the ten thousand blessing ceremony, Jiang Jingshu turned around and walked straight out.
Here, Li Yan'e stared at her departing back, lay back in the rocking chair, lowered her eyes, and thought thoughtfully.
It was close to the end of the day, and Zou Chen returned to the palace.
After entering the East Palace, he instructed the palace people to send the food into the room later, and went straight to the bedroom, and under the surprised gaze of Ziyi, he pushed open the door and walked in.
There was no figure of Jiang Jingshu in the outer room, only Jiang Jingshu's personal maid Mu Tao stood in front of the screen, holding clothes in her hands, and then looked at the mist rising behind the screen, and suddenly understood everything.
"Shu'er is bathing?"
A male voice suddenly sounded, startling the two people on the other side of the screen. Mu Tao glanced at Zou Chen, then quickly glanced away, and his expression was immediately hidden in the dim candlelight, "Miss, Your Highness is back!" ”
Zou Chen listened to it and always felt that the tone was quite strange, but he couldn't say anything strange.
"Your Highness?" Jiang Jingshu's voice was a little surprised. But after a moment, he spoke again, and his voice returned to his usual appearance, "Why did Your Highness come back so early today?" The palace people must have been taken aback. ”
Faintly perceiving the sarcasm in her words, Zou Chen didn't have time to answer, and suddenly realized that the palace people who had just seen him first, as well as the purple clothes, and then Mu Tao, all of them were full of surprise.
"Shu'er, you're mad at me......"
"Your Royal Highness, the palace people in the East Palace, it's not my turn to talk more, it doesn't hurt to chat and joke usually, but today I let the harem see the joke, if you don't deal with it, I'm afraid that in the future, the East Palace and His Royal Highness will have no prestige at all."
As soon as the words turned, on the side of the screen, Jiang Jingshu took the clothes, slowly put them on one by one, and said: "But-in the end, if the master does a good job, it will not give people the opportunity to chew the root of their tongues." What does Your Highness think? ”
Although Jiang Jingshu did not specify it, Zou Chen was not stupid, combined with the expressions on the faces of the people in the Fangcai Palace, and then carefully pondered Jiang Jingshu's words, he understood seven or eight points. When he arrived, the feeling of guilt spread in his heart.
It just so happened that Jiang Jingshu walked out of the screen at this time, Zou Chen stepped forward and put his coat on her, half spoiled, half sorry and said: "Shu'er, it's not good for your husband." From tonight onwards, my husband will only accompany Shu'er, and I will not easily let other trivial matters disturb us. ”
Jiang Jingshu moved her lips, and was about to say something considerate of him as before, so that he didn't have to care, just spend some energy to do a good job of surface work. At this moment, the palace man who had been ordered to bring food knocked on the door.
Zou Chen's eyes turned to the door, his eyes were a little cold, and the next moment, he strode over.
The palace people placed the food neatly on the table, made a salute, and were about to leave, but they heard Zou Chen's gloomy voice sound, "Pass my order, gather all the palace people in the East Palace, I have something to say." ”
