These days have been calm, there is no Liu Qilai to disturb, and there is no Ming Xiu who peeps on the beam of the house late at night, Chu Nian is happy to be quiet, but Jishitang has some trouble, and Mei Xiang said it with emotion when she came to return, and even the look of the troublemaker was vividly learned.

Grandma's handling methods are all to break small wealth and settle people, which can make Mei Xiang angry, but her own lady only smiled and drank tea when she heard it, and she didn't even have the slightest hint of helping Grandma fight grievances.

Mei Xiang asked, and the lady didn't say anything, but said that the aunt would handle it herself, so she wouldn't intervene.

In the past few days, the Liu family has come frequently, just look at her face to know what happened, Xiao Chen is a person who does not want to be honest, and now that she has come out, it is not her character to make a big fuss, no, since she came out of the ancestral hall, she has done everything possible to please the old lady, the old lady is used to being praised by her, Chu Nian and the Liu family are not people who are willing to pat on the back, the original favor on Xiao Chen's head is naturally back, but there is a layer of estrangement, and the only effect is that the old lady turns a blind eye to the small actions she secretly makes.

In the past few days, I heard that she was secretly replacing the people around her, so her maid mother in the fragrance garden either broke the plate or stole her beloved bracelet, but it hurt those people, and they did a good job, saying that they were kicked out of the house and were kicked out of the house.

There are fewer people, so it is natural to buy new people to come in, among which there is a beautiful little maid who has attracted the attention of Xiao Chen, and she reached out to leave on the first day of entering the house, and the old housekeeper has not had time to train.

The Liu family naturally knew about her plan, and it was nothing more than to take back the power of the family from the Liu family little by little, and the Liu family would not be able to live a good life at that time.

As soon as the sun set, when the cool breeze was blowing, a summons suddenly came from the palace, Chu Nian was just about to sleep, so he had to summon Mei Xiang to wash her up, and then followed the old eunuch who came to summon into the palace.

She thought it was a summons from the Queen Mother, but she didn't want to enter the palace, the old eunuch was leading her towards the Zhengyang Palace, and she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, what did the queen do when she summoned her at this time?

When I was still confused, the Zhengyang Hall arrived, and at this moment the queen was sitting on the phoenix chair with a tired face, and surprisingly, there was Ming Xiu sitting next to her with a smirk.

"I've seen the queen's mother, His Royal Highness the Prince."

After saluting, Chu Nian was given to sit, and before she could ask, Ming Xiu had already spoken: "County Lord!" The Imperial Grandmother has already betrothed you to Lone! I'm not happy! ”

Chu Nian's face was stunned, and even if she reacted, she was indeed very active in Kyoto recently, and now she is in front of the Queen Mother and Wang Zixuan, she is also a usable person, if this person falls into their hands, they are at ease, but from the emperor to the crown prince are controlled by the Queen Mother, Liu Qi and Shen Dui are the people chosen by Wang Zixuan, if she marries the prince, she is a person under the Queen Mother, if she marries Liu Qi or Shen Dui, she is a member of the Wang family.

Now that there is a gap between the Queen Mother and Wang Zixuan, after all, the power is in hand, who still wants others to get a piece of the pie?

Now I think it was the Queen Mother who made the first move, but that day she and Ming Xiu had already made everything clear, why was Ming Xiu willing to agree?

"Emperor, don't be rude." The queen sighed, and her bright and moving face seemed to be a little older, "The queen mother only said that it depends on the wishes of the county lord, when will the golden mouth be married?" ”

Chu Nian's face turned pale, thinking that the Queen Mother's attitude should be very resolute, this was the last chance for the Queen Mother to fight for her. In order to hide, Ming Xiu even hid it from the queen, the queen naturally didn't know Ming Xiu's true character, she only knew that her prince was a stupid person, and whoever married him would suffer a loss, not to mention that Chu Nian was of great significance to her, and she couldn't tell Chu Nian to stand in line easily.

Ming Xiu's gaze swept over Chu Nian, and he said unrelentingly: "As long as the county lord is with his son, sooner or later he will like his son!" Didn't the queen mother also say that Erchen is the most handsome man in the world! ”

The queen frowned and said softly: "Be good, the emperor can't be strong." ”

Chu Nian didn't say a word, carefully pondering whether this trip was deliberately called by the Queen Mother, if this trip was called by the Queen Mother, if she didn't say anything, I was afraid that the Queen wouldn't be able to stop Ming Xiu. What the hell was Ming Xiu thinking? Didn't she already talk to him?

Could it be ...... Did he really want to force her?

Before Chu Nian could frown, he heard the queen say exhaustedly: "Ming Xiu has to summon you tonight, this palace really can't make trouble with him, so disturb your rest." ”

Chu Nian said softly: "No, Niangniang is too worried." ”

Ming Xiu on the side smiled and picked up the water cup on the side, "Lone wants the county lord to accompany Lone to the lake tonight, last time the county lord promised and didn't answer, if you refuse to promise today, Lone will pour this cup of tea on you." ”

"Ming Xiu!"

Chu Nian's heart turned, and he smiled as if he had thought about something clearly, "The little girl is willing to accompany His Royal Highness to the lake, but Taiming Lake is too far away, can the little girl accompany His Highness to walk in the imperial garden?" ”

Seeing that Chu Nian was willing, the queen was also relieved, and when she saw Ming Xiu, she immediately stood up and clapped her hands and said, "Okay! Great! Take a night tour of the Imperial Garden! ”

Chu Nian also got up, and the queen saw that she really couldn't stop Ming Xiu, so she let him go, and sent more than a dozen palace people to follow left and right, for fear that this stupid son would get lost in the imperial garden. Chu Nian was not ambiguous, when Ming Xiu stepped out of the door of the hall, Chu Nian hurriedly followed, looking back at the blessing ceremony with the queen, which also made the queen feel a little relieved.

After the two of them left, the Queen Mother walked out with the support of her mother-in-law, "Hmph! What the mourning family told you, you couldn't listen to it at all, this Chu Nian has a good mind, no matter which side you go to, you are a helper, why do you push it out? ”

The queen suddenly fell to the ground and hid a wry smile on her face, "This woman's concubine has seen it, if she is won over with money, it is not impossible, otherwise, she is an official lady, why bother to open a pharmacy." ”

The Queen Mother's old eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, "After following the mourning family for so long, you don't understand such a trivial matter, if you win over someone with money, others will naturally follow others if they give more money; Fortunately, she is a woman, if she marries one of us, she will marry a chicken and a dog and a dog, and she still has to run? ”

"But ......" The queen wanted to say something, but saw the queen mother's cane smashed, making a loud noise, "The mourning family sees that you are sitting in the back seat and sitting stupidly, why don't you change the position and sit, can you still recover a little bit of your former demeanor?" ”

The queen's face turned pale, and she saw that the queen mother was helped by her mother-in-law and walked out of the hall, "You don't have to worry about this matter, the mourning family will find a way, but the mourning family sees that Concubine Liang has been very smart recently, and you can do it yourself!" ”

……

Chu Nian followed Ming Xiu, who was bouncing all the way, into the imperial garden, and walked around a few times, and the eunuchs and maids who followed behind him suddenly disappeared, she realized that Ming Xiu's waste of physical strength in the middle of the night was just to shake off his tail, the imperial garden was already big, and he was jumping and walking extremely fast, Chu Nian and others with a little bit of skill were almost lost, not to mention the palace people who had no half of the force behind.

The surroundings were plunged into darkness, and only a palace lamp in Chu Nian's hand illuminated a small area around the two of them.

Ming Xiu Er stopped his steps, looked back, his eyes burned, and the cold-blooded and ruthless His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally returned.

"You've been active lately?"

Chu Nian lowered her face, for some reason, since she made her words clear last time, when she saw him again, she only felt an inexplicable feeling of weakness. But he also felt a little at ease, he just called her in the name of the queen mother's forced marriage, looking at such a calm appearance at the moment, he should know the measure.

"Your Highness said this."

"Capture the gangsters, rescue the abducted children, assassinate the assassin at the lotus feast, and talk with General Liu all night in the tavern...... Lonely still thinks that you will be more peaceful in the days when you are not alone, it seems that you are the one who doesn't remember who you are after all. ”

Chu Nian frowned, the things she did a few days ago, she thought that she had nothing to do with the prince and their plans, so she didn't call the dark one three or four to report, but now it seems that Ming Xiu didn't fully believe her?

"Your Highness, don't use suspicious people, don't doubt people."

But he didn't want to, facing a gust of air, Chu Nian was defenseless, his chin was pinched fiercely, and his entire mandible was almost shattered.

Ming Xiu's long and narrow eyes fell on her face fixedly, his anger almost burned her pink face, and she only fixed her eyes on him, but she did not fall behind at all.

"Do you think that you can do whatever you want when you get closer to Lone? You have such a close relationship with Liu Qi, how can Lone believe that you are not a double agent? ”

Chu Nian stretched out his hand to hold his hand, and there was a burst of force under his hand, what was strange was that it was obvious that ordinary people with her strength would have rolled on the ground in pain for a long time, but this person didn't have a trace of painful expression.

"If Your Highness asks the little girl to talk about this, I'm afraid it will be in vain, hasn't the little girl already talked to His Highness about this matter? If His Highness can still find someone else to go to the soup for His Highness, His Highness will kill the little girl. ”

As soon as his chin loosened, Chu Nian raised his head again, and only saw a tall back, he put his hands behind his back, and his right hand that was holding Chu Nian's chin was clenched tightly.

"If you are not loyal to Lone, Lone would rather not have you as a person."

Knowing that he was stiff-mouthed, Chu Nian raised his eyebrows, and bent down to give him a step, "Your Highness might as well tell me a plan, which can make the little girl rise to prominence and grasp a certain amount of power and status in the court, so as to suppress the power of the royal family." ”

The tall figure froze, and the hands behind his back clenched tighter, and at this moment the wind blew through the leaves and there was a rustling sound, and the towering forest of the Imperial Garden seemed to hide a huge beast, ready to swallow the person who fell into the trap at any time.

"You can hide behind the scenes, and find a way to stand in front of you."

Hearing this, Chu Nian shook his head helplessly, the prince has pretended to be a fool for so many years, and now he is just going to go out of the mountain after breaking off the two feathers of the Wang family, so what has been done before is not all in vain, although the Wang family is still in the middle of the day, if at this time, the foolish prince who has not yet plumped his wings suddenly becomes smart, then what about the Wang family?

"Your Highness, the time has not yet come."

Ming Xiu Huo Ran looked back, and there was suppressed anger in his eyes, as if Chu Nian had really betrayed him.

"Do you have to?"

Chu Nian's eyes were full of incomprehension, "Your Highness, the overall situation is important. ”

Those narrow eyes always fell on Chu Nian's body, and after a while, Ming Xiu snorted coldly, and the voices of those who had scattered in the palace came faintly.

Chu Nian made a big salute detachedly, "Your Highness, take care." After speaking, he turned around and went into the forest, looking for those palace people.
