Baili Wenhan didn't close his eyes all night, and waited uneasily until the sky was about to dawn before getting up and going to the outer study. io
When Mr. Gu walked in with a heavy face, Baili Wenhan's heart sank to the bottom, "Didn't make it?" ”
His eyelids jumped all night, and he always had a bad premonition, seeing Mr. Gu's expression at this time. There is a kind of disappointment and powerlessness of "it is so".
"There are nearly 100 lives up and down Yicui Garden, and none of them have been killed," Mr. Gu's voice was also a little floating, if he stayed in Yicui Garden last night, I am afraid that he would have become one of those many corpses at this time, "I have taken a closer look, there is no body of Miss Xiao in it." ”
Baili Wenhan sat in the chair dejectedly, "Are you telling me that Xiao Min can still have the strength to kill the people who lean on the green garden and escape after being fed Hehuan San?" ”
"It's impossible! Hehuansan was poured into her by watching people, not to mention killing people to escape, even if she opened her eyes, she would not have the strength to open her eyes, this is someone who rescued her! ”
"Didn't I know someone rescued her!" Baili Wenhan slammed his fist on the table, glaring at Mr. Gu with bloodshot eyes. "Didn't you say foolproof?"
Mr. Gu lowered his head in shame, "It was not properly arranged, and it ruined His Highness's affairs, and I ask His Highness to punish him." ”
Baili Wenhan gritted his teeth for a long time, slowly suppressed the anger in his heart, and then asked, "Where have people been gotten to?" ”
A strange look appeared on Mr. Gu's face: "In the eldest princess's mansion---- before dawn, Miss Xiao and her ...... appeared when the rough maids in the eldest princess's mansion were cleaning With the Eight Emperors. ”
Baili Wenhan raised his eyebrows quickly: "With whom?" ”
"Your Highness."
Baili Wenhan's tense body relaxed suddenly, "Is it the Eighth Emperor who is not wrong?" ”
"That's right. I don't know why this matter is very noisy, and I'm afraid that it has spread all over the capital at this time. Mr. Gu's face did not soften because of this.
Baili Wenhan was stunned for a moment, before he smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It seems that he already knew that we were going to make a fuss about Xiao Min, but it just so happened that he didn't want to take Xiao Min at all." Only then did he put Xiao Min and Xiaoba together. It's ridiculous that we still think that people don't know ghosts. ”
He desperately wanted it, but Chu Qianlan didn't care about it at all. In this way, he slapped him loudly.
Seeing that he understood this, Mr. Gu said, "Doesn't Your Highness think it's strange? Why the Eight Emperors? ”
Although Baili Wenhan, who felt that his IQ was ruthlessly crushed by Chu Qianlan, he didn't care about the loss, he thought about it when he heard it, "He can't just find a man for Xiao Min, otherwise it is not impossible for Xiao Hou Ye to suppress this matter, and it is great that Xiao Min's reputation will be damaged." In a few years, who will remember this? But the object is Xiaoba, the emperor, and he can't rely on it even if he wants to. In this way, it is also completely extinguished that the Xiao family wants to marry their daughter to him. ”
He sighed, "That's it, although we missed this matter, we have achieved our goal, haven't we?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone outside the door announced: "Your Highness, there is news in the palace." ”
Baili Wenhan stood up excitedly, "Come in!" ”
……
At the same time, in the depressed Huaqing Palace, Concubine Shu also got up early in the morning. The old lady was skillful, and used the prescription left by the imperial doctor to prepare the dye ointment, dyed her white hair into green silk, combed it into an elegant cloud bun as before, and mixed the ointment to apply a thin layer on her face and hands.
"Mother, your skin is much better now. The Divine Doctor is truly a Divine Doctor, and if you use this ointment for a few more days, you will definitely be able to recover as before. The old lady smiled and said cautiously.
Concubine Shu just snorted when she heard this, since the emperor's doctor left the palace, her whole person seems to have returned to normal, and she no longer roars and shouts and kills at every turn. "As before? Don't use these words to coax Hongu. ”
She raised her hand and looked at her hand carefully in the morning light, it was no longer as smooth as before, but it was much happier than the ugly and flabby old bark at the beginning, although there were still some gray-brown spots, but now it seemed that at least it would not make her feel disgusted and want to vomit, "To recover to this point, Ah Zhong must have done his best." What's going on over there? ”
The old lady hurriedly replied: "It was said that the eldest princess was frightened, and she opened the palace gate before dawn, and it has been a long time, and I think there will be results soon." ”
"I don't know what to do, it's in vain that the palace has gone to great lengths to find such a good family affair for him, and he doesn't appreciate it and wants to push it out." Concubine Shu smiled coldly, "Ben Gongyuan is still thinking about how to ruin this family business, he is ----."
As she spoke, she took a deep breath and asked with a cold expression, "The news was sent out of the palace?" ”
"It's sent out, presumably the Three Emperors will be very anxious when they hear such bad news." The old lady looked at her calm appearance, and still felt a little frightened.
"Baili Huang wants to establish Baili Wenlan as the Tai, such news is enough to make him angry, and he can't sleep well." Concubine Shu's expression became more and more indifferent, "What he has been planning for so long is about to fall on Baili Wenlan's head in a blink of an eye, how can he be willing?" ”
"That's what you said." The old lady hurriedly flattered, "Next, you just need to stand up and watch a good show." ”
Concubine Shu was silent for a while, and then asked, "That woman still hasn't gone out a step?" ”
"Yes, she stayed in the Nine Princesses Palace and refused to take a step. Outside the palace of the ninth princess, there are forbidden troops everywhere, and not even a fly can fly in, which shows that the seventh highness really values that woman. The old lady replied: "And as soon as they should eat, they are all sent from the palace of the Seventh Highness, and the imperial dining room is not touched at all." ”
"It won't be long before Chongyang." Concubine Shu said as if talking to herself, "According to the convention, there is a banquet in the palace, and the palace doesn't believe it, and she will not be able to stay in it on that day." ”
……
The matter of Xiao Min and the Eight Emperors spread throughout the capital with the wind, and naturally it also fell into Ruotang's ears.
At night, after the little princess fell asleep, Chu Qianlan came to the door to kidnap people. When he arrived in his palace, Ruotang didn't have time to ask, so he was stuffed with a mouth full of food by Chu Qianlan first, "I heard that you didn't eat much during the day?" But it's not appetizing to send it today? Tomorrow I'll tell them to be more careful, you eat more, don't starve the baby in your belly. ”
Ruotang was choked and almost rolled his eyes, "Stop, enough is enough!" ”
This man thinks he's feeding pigs, and he's been eating Hesse so early, and in a few months, she'll not be as fat as a pig?
Finally, Chu Qianlan was finally willing to let her go, and Ruotang was already holding her belly and paralyzed in the chair and couldn't move. stared at Chu Qianlan's "so satisfied" look faintly, she really wanted to spit on him, and was about to ask Xiao Min, but was interrupted by the guest.
This unlucky guest still had a handsome face yesterday, but when he appeared in front of Chu Qianlan today, he was in the shape of a pig's head with a blue nose and swollen face.
He obviously didn't expect to meet Ruotang at this time, and when he saw the two of them feeding affectionately, he immediately showed a look of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Yo, little eight, are you still here to visit Brother Seventh so late?" Chu Qianlan raised her eyebrows and looked at the wonderful face of the Eighth Emperor, "What's going on with your face?" ”
"Knowingly ask!" The Eighth Emperor glared at him fiercely, but thinking of today's result, Fu bared his teeth and grinned, "It's worth it to be beaten by her." ”
Seeing Ruotang looking at the Eighth Emperor curiously, Chu Qianlan explained: "Today, my father has issued an order to let the two of them choose an auspicious day to get married. ”
The two of them were revealed by the maids in the eldest princess's mansion, and the matter caused a storm in the city, and there was no way to hide it, except to let them get married, there was no other way.
"Your Majesty didn't pursue what the hell is going on?" Where is Bailihuang such a good person, Xiao Min and the Eighth Emperor are not from the eldest princess's mansion, but they just appeared in the eldest princess's mansion, isn't this a big suspicion?
When the Eighth Emperor heard this, he gloated and laughed, "Father suspects that this matter was done by Seventh Brother, who told him to always put on a posture of not wanting to marry Minmin, who should he suspect if Father doesn't suspect him?" I said, Seventh Brother, you are miserable this time, did your father count the lives of those people in Yicuiyuan on your head? ”
"Although he doubted me, he had no evidence." Chu Qianlan said unhurriedly, "And I have already made it clear to him, I received the news that someone wants to be unfavorable to Xiao Min, it just so happened that you came over to pester me last night, and I was impatient, so I took you out of the palace, and when I saw Xiao Min in Hehuan San, I simply threw the two of you to the eldest princess's mansion---- I admit that I did all the things later, and he was angry for a while." ”
Because she was afraid that Ruotang would be worried, Chu Qianlan explained so clearly.
"Thaksin?" The Eight Emperors were skeptical.
"Thaksin." Chu Qianlan replied very confidently.
It is precisely because he is a frank disdain for lying in front of Bai Lihuang that Bai Li Huang believes in his words, even if he does not believe it very much, he has seven or eight points of it.
The Eighth Emperor looked at him suspiciously, "It's really strange, how long have you just come back, and he believes you like this?" I've heard that he's planning to make you too? ”
"What?" Chu Qianlan was stunned, "Where did this come from?" ”
"In private, those palace people are talking, and I listened to it twice." The Eighth Emperor said with a smile: "I don't know what kind of mood he will feel when this news reaches the ears of the third brother." Seventh brother, it was born from the same root, don't be too anxious! ”
Chu Qianlan ignored his ridicule, only thought about it thoughtfully, and then threw the matter away under Ruotang's worried gaze, "You came here to talk this nonsense?" ”
The Eighth Emperor unceremoniously stretched out his hand to him, "I heard that you have good wound medicine here, give me some quickly, as an elder brother, you don't want to see me have to wear such a face on the day I get married, right?" ”
Chu Qianlan's good medicines here were all brought by Ruotang from the Imperial Doctor, and when he saw these wound medicines, Ruotang couldn't help but think of him. Thinking that day when he secretly watched the imperial doctor leave the palace, his face was lonely and sad, and Ruotang felt sad and tight.
……
The relationship between the Eighth Emperor and Xiao Min was scheduled for August 30.
In less than ten days, all the outside of the kilometer palace were busy. First of all, he chose a mansion for the Eight Emperors, although this is a "stupid", but in the end, it is Bailihuang's own son, and the location is also a big deal, Bailihuang threw this matter to Chu Qianlan in his busy schedule, Chu Qianlan After the consent of the Eight Emperors, he selected his new mansion in the west of the city, far away from the imperial city, fortunately, the mansion is big and new enough, and it doesn't need to be renovated to live in.
During this period, Ruotang met Xiao Min in the palace.
Let the little princess play games with the palace maids, so that Ruotang can talk to Xiao Min alone.
"I heard that the date has been set, congratulations." Ruotang pursed her lips and smiled while pouring tea for her, "But the bride doesn't seem to be very happy?" ”
Xiao Min sighed, "I suffered this unwarranted disaster for no reason...... And the time is so tight, it's like being rushed by someone, which really makes people feel very depressed. ”
"Don't you want to marry His Royal Highness?" Ruotang pushed the cup in front of her and said with a smile: "It's really embarrassing to have these things, but if you think about it carefully, you have to marry someone you like, and this grievance is nothing, right?" I saw His Royal Highness the Eighth two days ago, and the bruises on his face had not yet dissipated, and people were happy as if they were something. The people in the palace are saying that His Royal Highness is going to get married, and he doesn't look as stupid as before, and he is still alive and ordered people to pack up his things, and he asks people everywhere all day long, what does Min Min like, I have to move all the things Min Min likes into my house, so that Min Min will not be angry with me again when she sees what she likes. ”
The gloom on Xiao Min's face really dissipated, "He actually wanted to say that when I saw something I liked, I didn't care about beating him out of anger." ”
Ruotang laughed out loud, "But you're really ruthless." ”
"I'm so angry." Xiao Min was a little embarrassed at this time, "If you open your eyes and see a ...... The whole world that was yelled at by the maids came to see the excitement, see if you are angry? What I was most angry about was that he really dared to consult me beforehand. "Asian table tennis is talented.
"If he doesn't let go, can he marry the girl he dreamed of marrying?" Ruotang smiled and explained her, "Actually, since you have already identified each other, although this process is a little unpleasant, the result is satisfactory and good." Yes, what did His Majesty say to the outside world? I can't say that the two of you have been privately taught by the eldest princess to go to the eldest princess's mansion. ”
Bai Lihuang didn't plan to investigate this matter to the end, since it wasn't Chu Qianlan who did it, he could guess with his toes who was in charge of this play, and it was also his own son, and it would be a shame for him to find out. Therefore, Ruotang will be curious about how Bailihuang handled this matter, it is not good to push everything on Xiao Min's head, Xiao Houye is also a powerful minister with military power, how can he not let Xiao Houye be cold to Bailihuang.
"It's just that I said in vague words that we were framed, and the matter has come to this point, it doesn't matter how the past is, the important thing is the future---- this is also what I entered the palace today to see the queen mother, and the queen mother persuaded me."
Ruotang was taken aback, "The queen summoned you to the palace?" ”
"Yes, it appeased me, and I think it was also at the will of His Majesty." Xiao Min smiled, "That one has been silent for so long, but I didn't expect that in the end, the queen mother survived." ”
Ruotang also smiled, "The queen is the one who has the blessings of the future, and she can keep the clouds open and see the moon." ”
Xiao Min shook his head, "Even so, I didn't look very happy when I saw the queen's mother, and when I heard about the internal affairs of the palace, she gradually began to take over." That one, it won't really fall out of favor, right? ”
"I heard that Your Majesty hasn't been to Huaqing Palace for a long time."
The two were talking, and the little princess ran in, in the end, Shuguifei was her nominal mother, and the two didn't say much, so they tacitly changed the topic.
……
After Xiao Min left, Ruotang saw that the little princess was a little distracted, and after questioning, the little princess raised her clear eyes to look at Ruotang, "Mother concubine, she ...... Has it really fallen out of favor? ”
Unexpectedly, she heard what she said just now, Ruotang thought about it and asked her, "You want to see her, do you?" ”
The little princess lowered her head and looked at her toes, "She, she is my mother, in case she falls out of favor, those palace people will bully her, and they will no longer serve her with all their hearts......"
Originally, he vowed never to see her again, and in the future, he only treated her as a stranger. But when she heard that she had fallen out of favor, and thought that she might be bullied by those minions who stepped on her low and praised her, she couldn't help but feel compassion again. And that is her own mother, if even she ignores her, won't others take her seriously?
Ruotang frowned slightly, feeling that this matter was a little tricky, the little princess couldn't rest assured that her mother wanted to see her, what position and reason did she have to stop her? But if she is really allowed to go, she will be coaxed by Shuguifei in three or two clicks, even if she will never have the heart to harm her, but if Shuguifei wants to use her to harm herself, is it not a quasi-child?
At the moment, Ruotang has no other way, so he can only use the procrastination trick, "Do you think this is good, let's let people go to see Shuguifei first, if she is willing to see the person you sent over, can you go over to see her again?" ”
The little princess thought about it, nodded in agreement, and seeing Ruotang's frowning appearance, she couldn't help but ask cautiously: "Sister Shen, are you unhappy that I still miss her?" ”
"Why, you think about her because of your filial piety, I'm just a little worried." Ruotang didn't hide it from her, "She can use you once or twice, and it's hard to guarantee that she won't use you three or four times in the future." ”
The little princess immediately became at a loss, and it was obvious that she also thought of Concubine Shugui's determination to put Rutang to death, which was the determination to achieve the goal at the cost of her life. The little princess was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Sister Shen, don't worry, I will be careful." Believe me, I won't let my mother hurt you again, really! ”
Ruotang just smiled, Concubine Shu really wanted to kill her, the little princess's weak guarantee was useless.
