Chapter 386: Visit
When they descended the mountain on the second day, the team grew a lot, and the dark three were forced to drive in front, and the rest of the secret guards ran and followed in the forest, and what was surprising was that Granny Meng, who was clearly looking at the old man, was actually scurrying around in the forest with the secret guards, and her face was still calm, even faster than the other secret guards.
And the huge carriage just had enough room for seven people, and it wasn't too crowded.
On the carriage, Chu Nian was half-leaning on Ming Xiu's shoulder, sitting beside him was Xi Chu Yueling, opposite was Mr. Liang and Mrs. Peony, and the innermost was Lu Cheng holding a sleepy little bean in his arms.
Mrs. Peony lifted the curtain and glanced at the mountain road outside, and slightly lifted her fiery red cuffs to cover her mouth and nose, "Why is it so bloody...... Hiss! Where did so many wolves come from? ”
"Tut-tut, this group of wolves is really miserable."
Chu Nian smiled and didn't speak, she put her head off Ming Xiu's shoulder, and turned her eyes to look out of the curtain with Mrs. Peony's gaze, the jungle was full of messes, and she looked sideways and saw Xi Chu Yueling's face full of discomfort.
With a long sigh, Chu Niancai said softly, "Have you figured out how to arrange for the five princesses to leave the palace?" ”
Xi Chu Yueling's attention was successfully diverted by Chu Nian, she raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Mr. Liang who was sitting opposite, her eyes flashed slightly, and she turned her eyes to look at Chu Nian again, and shook her head honestly, "You have a lot of ideas, why don't you talk about it?" ”
Chu Nian smiled slightly, and looked at Mr. Liang who was sitting opposite him with a slight flash, "I have an idea, it just depends on whether Mr. Liang is willing or not." ”
Mrs. Peony took the lead in raising her eyes, looked at Chu Nian suspiciously, and saw Mr. Liang on the side frowning slightly, "What the county lord thinks, Liang probably knows, but this ......"
Chu Nian lowered his eyes, "If Mr. refuses, he won't force it, but it's a pity that the fifth princess is still young and doesn't know who her biological father is." ”
Mr. Liang's face turned slightly pale, and Mrs. Peony on the side suddenly quieted down, she sat in place, looking at Chu Nian and Mr. Liang with a pair of beautiful Danfeng eyes without blinking. I saw Mr. Liang sigh a long time.
"Nothing has happened between me and the Empress, Fifth Empress...... It won't be my blood relative. ”
Before these words fell, Mrs. Peony and Lu Cheng raised their eyes and looked at Mr. Liang in surprise, while Xiao Douding in Lu Cheng's arms looked up at her brother, with a pair of big eyes flashing a little innocent, "Brother, what do Daddy's words mean?" ”
Lu Cheng reprimanded in a low voice: "Children don't have to interject......"
Xi Chu Yueling's face was not very good-looking at the moment, she raised her eyes, and her beautiful eyes were full of doubts, "But the fifth emperor sister clearly said that the palace master of Liang is her biological father......"
Mr. Liang was still calm, he was sitting in the carriage like this, frowning slightly, which was also a unique scenery.
"Liang doesn't know why the five empresses said this, but Liang did not have any ...... with the empress"
He pursed his lips and stopped at the right time, Chu Nian frowned slightly, and saw Ming Xiu's thin lips lightly, "Didn't you say that someone told her?" ”
Chu Nian's eyes flashed with inspiration, the fifth princess did say that someone had specially told her about this, maybe this matter was intentional and the purpose was ...... Draw out Mr. Liang?
A trace of inexplicable familiarity suddenly rose in her heart, Chu Nian frowned, looked sideways, and looked at Shang Mingxiu's deep pool-like eyes, her face turned slightly pale, shouldn't it, Dark Rin was seriously injured before, and she didn't know where to hide at the moment, how could she go all the way to Xichu to control this matter?
"Everything can only be concluded after entering the palace," Xichu Yueling's face was not very good-looking, and anyone who knew that his family was being manipulated by the conspiracy of others would not be comfortable, even if it was just a half-sister. "At the moment, we can't deduce anything even if we are here, so we might as well lure the snake out of the hole, and I can take this opportunity to rid the palace of moths."
As she spoke, she turned her eyes to look at Chu Nian as if she was exploring, and saw Chu Nian nodding slightly and said, "Well, I think it's very good, but I'm going to wronged Mr. Liang." ”
When these words fell, Mrs. Peony took the lead in looking at Chu Nian, with a faint doubt in her eyes, "What are you going to do?" ”
Chu Nian took a deep breath and turned his gaze to Mr. Liang, who was frowning, "Mr. and Madame can rest assured, Mr. is extremely important to us, and we will definitely not put Mr. in danger." ”
Mr. Liang was still frowning, and Mrs. Peony beside him breathed a sigh of relief for a short time, and said: "The name of the county lord, I naturally heard it when I was displaced in Xichu, and I also believe in the character of the county lord, but it is just ......"
She turned her eyes and looked at Mr. Liang beside her, "My husband's body has never been good, and besides, if I go to the palace here, I am afraid that I will encounter trouble, and I must not follow, and I ask the county lord and the two highnesses to take care of it." ”
Chu Nian nodded as a matter of course, "When you enter the capital, Her Royal Highness will help you arrange a secret residence, and before the matter is resolved, in order to ensure the safety of Mrs. and Xiao Langjun and Xiao Niang, I have wronged you." ”
Mrs. Peony nodded, did not speak, and there was a little worry in her eyes, which gradually subsided.
It wasn't until noon that the slow-moving carriage finally arrived in the town, and when they arrived in the town, Chu Nian and the others got out of the carriage with Mr. Liang, and the three of them were taken away by the people called by Xi Chu Yueling, and the group hurried to the palace.
……
At the same time, a palatial palace was very busy.
The waiters who came and went were in a hurry, and most of them carried a lot of food and other things in their hands. In the courtyard not far away, a figure stood silently, frowning slightly and looking at the busy scene in front of him.
A waiter passed by, his face beaming, "It's been a few days, and the palace master is finally willing to eat something, but it's a pity that the palace master's taste is still so picky, and most of the things sent in have been returned." ”
"Yes, you said, the palace master wanted to open last time because he went to the palace banquet, so this time, what is the reason?"
"I don't know very well, but I seem to have heard that the fourth prince ......"
"Shhhh
The figure in the darkness seemed to move slightly, the red rope on her wrist glowing in the moonlight, and after a moment, she turned and walked to the small door on her side, which was hidden by the wild grass, and the small door made a "squeak", and a figure suddenly fell from the sky.
"Lord Wang, they're back."
"Finally back?" Xichu Lu Ning looked at the black-clothed maid in front of him with a tired face, frowned silently, and after a while, Fang Cai sighed and said, "Okay, I know." ”
Speaking of this, she turned around and said, "When I go back to the house, I will say that this king is having dinner in the palace today, and he will not go back, and he will send someone to the palace of the eldest queen, and he will say that this king will come to visit later." ”
The maid raised her head, opened her mouth, closed it at last, and whispered, "Yes, lord." ”
……
Chu Nian and the others had just placed Mr. Liang in the palace of Yue Ling in Western Chu, and originally planned to ask the Five Imperial Daughters for questioning, but they were told that the Fifth Imperial Daughters had been summoned by the Empress earlier and had not returned yet, so everyone had to wait for the Five Imperial Daughters to come back and unveil this mysterious person who tried to control the Five Imperial Daughters.
At this time, the news of Xi Chu Lu Ning's visit soon spread to the palace of Xi Chu Yue Ling, Chu Nian and Xi Chu Yue Ling glanced at each other, and a trace of bad premonition rose in their hearts.
……
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
Da Liang, Kyoto, Chu family.
Today's Chu family is particularly quiet, Mei Xiang walked into the house from the courtyard, there was a person lying on the couch in the room, only a slender hand was seen through the tulle, and from the outline, she was holding the book in her hand and reading with relish.
"Lady." Mei Xiang raised her eyes and glanced at the figure in the curtain tent, "Mama Li, who was next to the Queen Mother, came and said that she had brought some supplements to visit the lady." ”
The figure in the curtain moved, and a cold voice came out of it, "Call her in, cough cough, now that I'm not well, you should be more considerate, don't snub Mama Li." ”
"Yes." Mei Xiang replied in a low voice, turned to go out, but walked in a moment, followed by a white-haired old woman dressed in rich clothes, and the old woman looked at the back of the camp with a pair of fine eyes, as if she wanted to see the lovely face behind the camp.
At the end, she was blessed and bowed slightly to the back of the tent, "I have seen the unequaled county lord, and I heard that the county lord is sick in bed, and the queen mother has a lot of concerns, so I sent the old body to visit the county lord." ”
The person behind the curtain waved his hand, coughed lightly, and said: "Thank you for the Queen Mother's concern, I am sick and I am afraid that it will take some time to get better, so I can only wait until the time to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye." ”
Mama Li looked at the figure behind the curtain without a trace, the curtain was blocked, and she couldn't find any flaws in a silhouette, she lowered her eyes slightly, and listened to the inside.
"Mei Xiang, hurry up and show Mama Li tea."
Mei Xiang replied and gestured to Mama Li, "Mama Li, please sit here." ”
Mama Li nodded, looking up at Mei Xiang, who was about to leave, "The Queen Mother heard that the county lord likes lotus soup, so she specially asked the chef in the palace to make a good lotus soup. ”
Mei Xiang raised her eyes to look at the curtain tent, and saw that the person behind the curtain coughed lightly again, and said in a dumb voice: "Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother, Mei Xiang, go quickly, remember to prepare more snacks for Mama Li." ”
Hearing this, Mei Xiang turned around and hurried away, and when she came back, she had a silver ingot in her hand and the lotus soup in the food box.
The silver was stuffed into the sleeve of Mama Li, who pretended to shirk, and the corners of Mama Li's mouth were about to grin, so she bent down and said with a smile: "The county lord pays more attention to his body, the queen mother is still waiting for the old body to go back to her life, this tea, the old body will not eat it." ”
The people in the tent didn't do much to keep it, but nodded lightly and said, "Yes, then thank you Mama Li." ”
Mei Xiang took a few steps forward, and Mama Li walked out with a smile, and Mei Xiang didn't walk back until she sent people out.
At this time, the person in the curtain tent had already lifted the curtain tent, carried the silver needle left by the grandmother on the side, and soaked it in the lotus soup, and then ate it unceremoniously.
"Fifth princess, you eat slowly." Mei Xiang couldn't help but stretch out her handkerchief to wipe off the porridge that Ming Qiao accidentally fell on her trouser leg, and then said.
Ming Qiao raised his head from the porridge bowl and looked at Mei Xiang, "This lotus soup is a good thing, the chef in the imperial dining room is the best at it, you can also try a bowl yourself." ”
"You're not afraid that the Queen Mother will poison it."
