Chapter 228: Hidden Reason

"Oh?" Concubine Cheng frowned, and said as if she didn't believe it: "Good and decent, why did the noble man ask you to catch the father-in-law who was serving by his side!" Could it be that if you don't serve well, you have to be caught and beaten? ”

Pei Shuang chuckled and said contemptuously: "Concubine Cheng is very right! The hard work of the noble woman's pregnancy, Xu is tempered and irritable, and the slave is beaten, so it is understandable that the master will be smooth. You don't have to be so excited, Father-in-law, what are you running? ”

I didn't think about what to say, but at this time, I was even more numb to my tongue in front of the concubine who was not angry and arrogant, and I couldn't squeeze out a word.

"Can't you speak?" Concubine Cheng was slightly impatient. "Can you follow and serve by the side of the noble man, will he be a mute? This palace should be a person with a sharp tongue. This hobby of a flattering nobleman is quite special. ”

Feng Shan kept kneeling with his neck bent, and when he caught a glimpse of the man, he also muttered in his heart. Mei nobles have always been heavy-handed, how could they suddenly order people to be twisted and dragged back to the palace. It was only three days of hard work, and the prince just went out of the palace for the nobles. I couldn't understand it in my heart, Feng Shan's expression seemed a little different.

Everyone else hung their heads in panic, but his head was slightly tilted in the direction of the sage, and he didn't move for a long time.

Ruyue saw it clearly, and was about to continue asking, but she didn't want Le Xi'er to bow down and walk in. "Say what."

"Back to the master, Zijia from Changchun Palace is here, saying that she wants to meet you and apologize on behalf of Mei Guiren." Le Xi'er's sincere admiration is like a noble concubine's eyes like a torch, and she said in her heart that no matter what tricks this charming nobleman has, she will definitely not be able to escape the discerning eyes of her master.

Concubine Cheng snorted lightly, and her voice was displeased: "Mei Guiren is already working hard during pregnancy, and Imperial Doctor Chen and Imperial Doctor Lu are doing their best to take care of them, but they are not worry-free." The minions also care so much! asked the queen and Concubine Ru to worry about her in vain, she was really ignorant. Concubine, look at ......"

Ruyue pursed her lips and twisted a snow-white lotus seed, but did not eat it: "Let her in." Xu is a charming nobleman really has something to say! "It's fine." Concubine Cheng nodded and agreed: "Xu is suffocated in the room all day, and the mood is also depressed!" The concubine looked at it, and counted Niangniang, you are the most blessed, and this pregnancy is extraordinarily stable. ”

Referring to the child in her womb, Ruyue's eyes couldn't help but show a happy smile: "Yes." Don't hide it from my sister, this fetus is extremely labor-saving, this child seems to be very well-behaved, and rarely tosses me! It's easier than when you're smiling. ”

"This is the mother-son connection." Concubine Cheng smiled, full of joy: "If you want to come to the little brother, you are not willing to work hard." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zi Jia walked into the hall. "Such as the noble concubine Wanfu Jin'an, the honest concubine Niangniang Wan'an." Her voice was very clear, but her eyes did not meet the two high-ranking concubines for the first time. Instead, he flickered and glanced at the boy first.

"What is the matter with the lady asking you to apologize?" Concubine Cheng knew that Zijia's status was low, and she was not worthy of talking directly to Concubine Ru, so she asked herself.

Zijia was a blessing again, and then replied respectfully: "Mei Guiren lost a jade Ruyi, suspecting that his hands and feet were not clean, and he took the opportunity to go out of the palace and stole it out to sell it, and wanted to recruit him back to ask him in person." Who knew that this incident actually alarmed Rufei Niangniang and Chengfei Niangniang, and the nobleman felt uncomfortable in his heart, after all, the jade Ruyi was still given by the concubine Niangniang.

In addition, the nobleman was inconvenient, so he specially asked the slave to come and apologize. The nobleman also said that such a trivial matter would not worry about the two mothers, and let the slave maid take the person back to dispose of it. I hope that the two mothers will be gracious. ”

Ruyue gently dropped the lotus seeds in her hand, took the handkerchief handed by Peishuang and wiped the stickiness on her hands. "It's hard to be so considerate and thoughtful when the lady is pregnant, and the palace is more and more unhappy. That jade Ruyi was originally an object given to her by the palace, and if she lost it, she would lose it, and it was not worth being angry. If the emperor is in the palace and sees these chaotic scenes and blames the blame, it can only be regarded as the palace. ”

Zijia couldn't help but panic when she heard this, such as the concubine who was clearly making a big fuss and accusing her nobles of not following the palace rules. That's it, how can it seem that there is still a deliberate meaning of embarrassment with the concubine in the words. Although she wanted to protect the lord, Zijia didn't dare to make a mistake, what kind of identity was the concubine, how could she be allowed to be a small palace maid to shout and argue.

Thinking so, Zi Jia could only kneel down on her knees: "The slave is clumsy and can't speak, if you annoy the concubine, please ask the lady to calm her anger." It's just that Mei Guiren is the little master of the slave and maid, and the slave and maid have to do what she orders, and ask the mother to take pity on the slave and maid. The grievances on her face were just right, and as soon as her waist was weak, Zijia fell to the ground.

Concubine Cheng glanced at her contemptuously, did not speak, but stared at Concubine Ru, looking at her mind.

"It's rare for a noble person to be so sympathetic to the heart of this palace, Qin'er, except for Zizi and Feng Shan, let Zijia take the rest of the minions back. It's just running in the palace, and it's a trivial matter, and it doesn't take much effort to flatter the nobles. When Ruyue spoke, she looked very calm. But whoever heard it heard the unquestionable majesty of these words.

Zijia wanted to plead again, but she knew that Ru Guifei would definitely not be gracious. In addition to the secret hatred in her heart, she didn't even dare to show a trace of dissatisfaction.

Concubine Cheng saw that Zijia didn't leave and didn't thank her, so she smiled: "It's said that your noble family is not good, even if you are a good person, I'm afraid you can't afford such a burden." In whatever position, he will be the Lord in whatever position. The rules in the harem have always been like this. ”

When it came to this, Zi Jia could only thank her head for her kindness, and took the rest of the little eunuchs to retreat unwillingly. When he met Shang Zizi's eyes again, Zi Jia's eyebrows were completely twisted together, and he wished that he could kill him with his eyes to feel at ease.

He was scared, cold sweat broke out in his palms, and a large area of sweat was damp on the ground. It's just that he still doesn't dare to act rashly, if the concubine only leaves him and Feng Shan, she must be aware of it. He regretted that he was too reckless, and if he had explained it to Mei Guiren as soon as possible, maybe he wouldn't have to run away.

If you don't escape, you won't alarm Concubine Zhuang. In this way, it is impossible to return to Changchun Palace to serve. When he thought of this, he suddenly felt stupid. It is still difficult to say whether he can escape today's catastrophe, to put it bluntly, it is still unknown whether he can leave the Yongshou Palace alive, how can he still hope to return to the side of the noble man to serve.

It's really nonsense.

It's just very strange that there was no movement in the side hall, and he didn't speak, like the concubine, she was so calm that she didn't ask anything. This feeling makes people feel very depressed and out of breath. It's better to have a knife and die a painful death.

Peishuang's sharp gaze kept scanning the two people lying on the ground. I always feel that whether it is Jian Zi or Feng Shan, there is something to hide. It's just that the young lady is not in a hurry to ask, and she must calm down. So this time, Peishuang had no impulse for the first time.

Summer showers are often accompanied by lightning and thunder, engulfing the original day into night, so that the bright light of lightning can be reflected.

This bright light startled Concubine Cheng almost couldn't sit still, and she covered her pounding chest to soothe her emotions.

But Ruyue was unmoved, and the fierce and self-respecting momentum slowly dispersed unconsciously.

When the lightning and thunder were roaring, she glanced at the concubine, the fair skin, the bright eyes, the high nose, and the soft red lips reflected the blue light of the lightning, which became more and more three-dimensional and clear. "The concubine spare her life......"

Feng Shan heard that he suddenly shouted like this, and he was also frightened, for fear that he would say something that the concubine wanted to know and live, but he was executed for nothing. "Guifei Niangniang, when the slave took someone to clean the palace early this morning, I also saw the pair of Kodama Ruyi in the study, and they were not lost at all. Zijia was clearly lying, and asked the mother to be clear. ”

Qin'er got the hint from the concubine, walked down slowly, and stopped in front of the two: "My mother has always been merciful, as long as you tell the truth, I will not be embarrassed by you." But if there is a falsehood, will you know the consequences? ”

The man stiffened his body, and finally dared to raise his head, and his voice trembled: "Actually, it was the slave who discovered a secret and did not tell the noble man in time. Only then was the nobleman suspicious, and he was anxious to arrest the slave and go back to ask for the crime. ”

Ruyue didn't seem to be lying anymore when she looked at the sage, but her eyes were very evasive, and she knew that this was not something that could be said in front of anyone. Although he trusts Concubine Cheng, if he is seriously implicated, the fewer people who know, the safer he is. Helplessly, it was still raining at this time, and it was always bad to rush Concubine Cheng back to the palace in the heavy wind and rain, so he didn't continue to ask.

On the contrary, Feng Shan was extremely clever, he saw that Ru Guifei was a little worried, and he was worried about his own life, so he grabbed the words of the concubine and said: "If the noble concubine forgives her sins, the slave still has something to say, and she blindly chews and doesn't know, and she is also afraid that the noble man will take the slave back to punish her." In fact, the reason why Mei Guiren wanted to hold the sirl was because the squirrel offended the imperial doctor Lu. ”

"Go on." Concubine Cheng didn't think too much about it, but just casually followed such a sentence.

"A few days ago, Mei Gui was unwell, and he always took the prescription prescribed by Imperial Doctor Chen, and when he didn't see Lord Lu enter the palace, he asked him to leave the palace to invite. Who knew that the son had a strong temperament, and Lord Lu said that there was something at home, but the son did not follow, and the two of them scuffled. "The quarrel with Lu Tian was originally said by himself, and Feng Shan added oil and vinegar to describe it at this time, and it also broke some meaning.

"Yes, the slave was impulsive and made a move with Lord Lu. The adults are even more reluctant to enter the palace, and the nobles here are still waiting for Lord Lu to come and take a look, so they complain about the slaves. He was grateful to Feng Shan for finding a good reason for him, but he didn't know that Concubine Ru had already seen the traces of fabrication.
