Chapter 146
It had rained all night, and in the morning the sun shone through the dense foliage into the yard. Mo Yan slept peacefully at night and got up early. Such fresh air is very suitable for practice. He thought about it for a long time, it was really a shame to lose to Yingning yesterday. This face is not only his own, but also the prince's. He has always been the deputy general of the prince, and he is the most powerful helper by his side, and he has almost grown up with the prince. He once swore that no one in the entire Luoyang City was worthy of standing by the prince's side and being his confidant. Now if the news that he was defeated by a woman spreads, I don't know how many people's big teeth will be laughed off.
I am afraid that he will have to work harder in the future to regain the dignity he lost yesterday.
He was about to go to the forest with his sword, but he saw Aunt Xia beside the Queen Mother, carrying a food box in her hand, and walked over majestically.
"Aunt Xia, why are you here?" Mo Yan hurriedly caught up, looking at this posture, he probably came to Xingshi to ask for guilt.
"General Moyan, what are you asking well? Why did I come and why did I come, don't you know? Aunt Xia said with a cold face.
Aunt Xia is the confidant of the Queen Mother and the nurse of the prince, so it can be said that the prince was brought up by her. is very valued by the queen mother, and the prince has to give three points when he sees it, but Mo Yan doesn't dare to slack off at all. He smiled and said: "At that time, the situation was urgent, and I didn't have time to think about the Queen Mother's report." The prince said, this is good, the mother is sad and true, and those Huns will be easier to believe. The prince was really helpless, and when he heard that the queen mother was heartbroken, the prince was also unable to sleep. I also hope that the mother and aunt can understand the difficulties of the prince, and now the situation is complicated, and they need to work step by step to succeed. ”
Aunt Xia snorted, she is a woman and can't understand so much. It's just that the Queen Mother is extremely sad, and she washes her face with tears every day, and her heart is naturally anxious. When I went to the palace that day, although the mourning hall was decently arranged, the old immortal housekeeper Zhong refused to let her see the last face of the prince no matter what. She saw Mo Yan who had been following the prince's side again, but there was not even a figure. Steward Zhong obstructed in every way, and Mo Yan disappeared for no reason, she was really puzzled in her heart. So, she took advantage of the dead of night to quietly come to the palace alone. blocked Steward Zhong in the room, coerced and enticed, and let him tell the truth and the truth.
Aunt Xia had little interest in their schemes. The prince is not dead, which is what she cares about the most, which is a great news. The Queen Mother knew the news of the death of the prince, and cried bitterly every day and couldn't sleep at night. Seeing that he was getting thinner and thinner, he also had some gray hair on his head. Now that the prince is not dead, she has to go back to the palace as soon as possible to tell the queen mother about it, so that she can feel at ease as soon as possible.
Aunt Xia was in a hurry to leave, but Steward Zhong grabbed her and told her that she could only inform the Queen Mother of this matter, and the stakes were very important, so she must not leak the news. The Queen Mother has to pretend that the prince has died, as before, and she has to be even more heartbroken to be convincing. Although Aunt Xia doesn't know this, she only has the queen mother and the prince in her eyes. But after all, she has worked with Steward Zhong for many years, and looking at his expression, she also knows that this matter is not trivial. She agreed, and hurried back to the palace.
When the Queen Mother knew that she was still alive, she would cry and laugh for a while, kneel in front of the Bodhisattva, and said reverently: "The Bodhisattva appeared, and he must have heard the prayer of the mourning family." She recited the sutra in front of the Bodhisattva all night.
After a few more days, the Queen Mother was still sad and had trouble sleeping. It's not intentional, after all, she hasn't seen the indefinite with her own eyes, and her heart is always uneasy.
In the end, she couldn't help it and told Aunt Xia to come and take a look. So early in the morning, she came.
"Is the prince up? Is he used to living here? I heard that I also brought a servant girl, what is it? Is it still decent to serve the prince? Aunt Xia asked solemnly, in her eyes, the degree of food and clothing of the prince was an extremely important thing.
Mo Yan led the way in front and hesitated for a moment before he pondered: "Considerate, the prince values it very much." "Miss Yingning is really dedicated to taking care of the prince, but recently the prince seems to take more care of Yingnian. The delicious food and drink are all close to Yingning. Although these princes didn't care very much about it, the princes never treated other maids like this. The prince should have been moved by Miss Yingning.
When he arrived at the door of my period, Mo Yan carefully pushed open the door, for fear of disturbing the prince's rest. In fact, according to common sense, the prince should be up at this moment.
As soon as Aunt Xia stepped into the room, she saw Wu Qi lying on the table, quietly, and seemed to be still asleep. And on his bed, Yingnian had just sat up, yawning and stretching. His hair was disheveled, and his clothes were disheveled. looked at the two people who came in at the door with a confused expression.
Aunt Xia had a dark face and asked Mo Yan on the side: "This is the maid who serves the prince very decently?" ”
Mo Yan didn't know how this scene could appear in front of her, according to common sense, Ying Ning should sleep in her own room, how could she be in the prince's room, and still sleep in the prince's bed. Common sense is not credible, common sense is not credible.
Don't wait for Mo Yan to answer, this girl is simply the opposite. Aunt Xia put the food box in her hand heavily on the table, went up and dragged the ears of Yingning, who was staring in fascination, and gritted her teeth in her mouth and said, "You little hoof, you are bold, you dare to be so presumptuous." ”
Yingning was so hurt that her ears hurt, and she instantly sobered up, she took Aunt Xia's hand and shouted, "Who are you, you let go of me, it hurts." ”
Wu Qi was so startled by this movement that he also woke up, and he immediately walked to the two people who were entangled, and said, "Auntie, you let go first." ”
Aunt Xia refused, and used a little more strength in her hands, and Yingning also screamed a few times. Aunt Xia said to me: "The prince is kind-hearted and doesn't want to punish this girl, so he calls the old slave to come." The old slave wants to cure this arrogant girl today, and there is no master in his eyes. dared to sleep on the bed by himself and let the master sleep on the table. When this is said, people think that the prince is easy to bully, and he will not kick his nose in the face in the future. ”
"Auntie, don't worry. Listen to the king first, and he told her to sleep on the bed. I had no choice but to explain it this way.
"The prince doesn't have to excuse this little hoof." As he spoke, he said to Mo Yan: "Mo Yan, you go find me a rattan, and I have to teach this girl a good lesson." ”
Where did Mo Yan dare to go to find rattan, the prince's expression was already distressed, if he went to find rattan, he should not have a good life in the future.
Ying Ning felt that her ears were about to be pulled off, she didn't know who the woman in front of her was, she looked at me very respectfully, and she was not presumptuous. I had to shout: "Lord Wang, save me." ”
"Auntie, this king is also your master, if you want to teach this king's girl, you must also ask for the king's consent." I saw Yingning screaming violently, tears flowing from the corners of her eyes, thinking that it hurt badly. His face finally turned cold, and his tone became a little colder.
Aunt Xia was stunned for a moment, and saw that the prince seemed to be angry, so she let go of her hand.
I covered Yingning's ears and rubbed them gently, which was already so red that it seemed to be dripping blood. He frowned and asked softly, "Does it hurt?" ”
Ying Ning nodded with a pout, very aggrieved, who is this woman? I heard him call him aunt, could it be some kind of eldest princess or something?
I wiped the tears she fell, Aunt Xia saw it in her eyes, her brows furrowed, and reminded on the side: "Lord Wang, the old slave has something to say." ”
Wu Qi sighed, turned to Mo Yan and said, "You take Yingning to get some medicine." ”
As soon as they left, Aunt Xia said, "Is the prince taking a fancy to this girl?" ”
I didn't speak, although Aunt Xia was his nursing mother, he was very respectful. It's just that she doesn't have the right to control herself.
Aunt Xia knew that she was acting a little recklessly, but she couldn't tolerate a little girl, who dared to take the prince to heart like this, and the prince actually allowed her to be presumptuous. She said: "Lord Wang, you know that the old slave came on the order of the Queen Mother, and the old slave didn't dare to take care of the prince." It's just the meaning of the old slave, which is the meaning of the queen mother. If the prince really takes a fancy to this girl, it is indeed possible to be a girl in the room. But the prince must not move the idea of letting her be a concubine, this is unreasonable. ”
My eyes moved, and I finally had some reaction: "When did this king say that he wanted her to be a concubine?" ”
Aunt Xia heard this and laughed happily: "That's good, the old slave said, how can a lowly girl be worthy of being the prince's concubine." ”
As soon as Aunt Xia's words fell, I said: "This king wants her to be the princess of this king." ”
Aunt Xia sat up from the stool in shock, and only after a long time did she say a sentence with a trembling mouth: "How can the prince do this?" How does this work? ”
"How not?" I asked faintly, what he had made up his mind to do, there was nothing that could not be done.
"She is just a humble and lowly girl, if such a person is made a princess, won't the prince be ridiculed by the world." Aunt Xia has been in the palace for several years, and she has never heard of a prince who is noble and married a maid as a wife.
"Who dares to laugh at this king?" My face was unhappy, and I said coldly.
Aunt Xia knew that she should not be able to persuade the prince, so she pointed to the food box on the table, and said helplessly: "The prince is fine, the queen mother and the old slave are relieved." This is the dim sum that the queen mother instructed the imperial chef in the palace to make, which the prince has always loved to eat. In this way, the old slave will return to the palace to resume his life, and if he goes back late, the queen mother will have to worry again. ”
Wu Qi knew that his tone was a little heavy, but he didn't defend Yingning, who would look up to her in the future. He must not let her be looked down upon, not by anyone. He sighed and said, "Auntie go slowly and take care of the queen mother for this king." ”
Aunt Xia nodded and went out unhappily, and as soon as she came out, she saw Yingning and Mo Yan standing not far from the door. She walked up to Yingning, glanced at Yingning fiercely, and then left angrily.
Ying Ning smashed Mo Yan with her elbow and asked in a low voice, "Who is this fierce mother-in-law?" Why do you come up and do it, did I offend her? ”
Mo Yan looked at Aunt Xia who was far away, and felt that Ying Ning's description was really appropriate. Every time he saw her, his heart trembled. He replied in a low voice: "She is a celebrity next to the Queen Mother, and she is also the nurse of the prince." As for what she did to you, it was strange that she didn't get angry when she saw you sleeping on the prince's bed, and the prince deigned to sleep on the table. ”
"Hey, I don't know how I slept in the prince's bed." Ying Ning patted her head, was she sleepy last night? How could he occupy my bed, and he didn't say anything to wake her up. Her ears still hurt? That aunt was so heavy that she didn't tear her ears off, which was really lucky.
