Chapter 184: Staying in the Palace
"Cheng Nian, you're drunk. Don't drink anymore. ”
Meng Qi stretched out his hand to grab the wine glass in Yin Chengnian's hand, and was just seen by Meng Cong, although the two of them spoke in a small voice, but after all, they were at the same table, and some words still entered Meng Cong's ears, and then those words like marriage vaguely floated in his ears, and he said: "Hey, what are you two muttering?" Seventh, Miss Yin can drink if she wants, there is wine in the palace, why do you want to stop others? Miss Yin, you can drink if you want, don't worry about Lao Qi. ”
“……”
Cai Ye said: "What does a girl's family do with so much wine?" Your Majesty, you don't stop her, but indulge her! Cheng Nian, don't drink it anymore! ”
Tsk, drunken words are so good. Yin Chengnian put down the wine glass and said respectfully: "Yes, master." ”
"Hey, Xuan'er, although Miss Yin is your subordinate, you can't be so harsh on others." Meng Cong looked hearty and amiable, not at all as tyrannical as in the legend.
In fact, he is just a master of acting. The killing created by Meng Cong was placed there, and no one could ignore it, and no amount of disguise was in vain.
Zhou Ye drank another full glass, and spoke more presumptuously: "Your Majesty, where am I criticizing her?" This little girl was picked up by me, raised with one hand, she relied on this, she has always been bold and reckless, such as today's scene, she should not have sat here with Your Majesty, but she relied on me to spoil her, so she sat here regardless of dignity and humility, and she was really uneducated. ”
"Master......" Yin Chengnian shouted in a low voice aggrievedly, and the wine glass in his hand was also put down.
Meng Qidao: "Cousin, if you want to say that you are uneducated, you are also spoiled, but no wonder others, you have to drink the bitter wine you brew yourself." ”
Cai Ye's face darkened, "You are right, you have to drink the bitter wine you brew yourself." Cheng Nian, I now order you, don't drink anymore, go back to the Seven Princes' Mansion, don't let me be upset. ”
Meng Cong secretly looked at Yan Ye, with a little smile in his eyes, and stopped him: "You kid, why are you talking more and more?" Fang Cai, I can also hear it, Miss Yin likes you, but you have already become a relative, it is normal for a big man to have three wives and four concubines, so you accepted Miss Yin as a concubine, what is not to do? Miss Yin is so beautiful. ”
Why is this the topic? Yin Chengnian turned his head and looked at Meng Qi-Fang Cai, what she said accidentally was brought by him. What is his intention?
"Miss Yin, what do you say?"
Meng Cong threw the words to Yin Chengnian, Yin Chengnian was startled for a moment, and replied incoherently: "That, that, Your Majesty, I, I don't dare to think too much, the master and his ...... His wife, the flounder, was so affectionate that I didn't dare to think about it. "I don't know if the plaice is in love, but it's true that the person he married is very powerful.
Meng Cong raised his eyebrows and looked at Yu Ye: "Xuan'er, have you married a powerful woman who is jealous and domineering?" Look at Miss Yin's scare. ”
Yin Chengnian pursed his lips and didn't speak.
Cai Ye was a little direct: "She is indeed a little jealous, and she is very powerful, I am afraid of guilt, and it is impossible to marry another woman in this life." ”
I don't know if I said this to Meng Cong, or to Meng Qi, or to Yin Chengnian, anyway, I hope the three of them will break off this thought.
"Your Majesty, I'm a little too strong to drink, and if I drink any more, I'll get drunk, please allow me to retire."
He staggered to his feet, and it seemed that a gust of wind could blow him down. Meng Cong had no choice but to sigh: "Alas, you kid, is the amount of alcohol really so shallow?" What else do you go when you drink like this? Lao Rong, help him to rest in the inner bedroom, let's withdraw here, I should also go to the lunch break. ”
Gonggong Rong hurriedly helped Meng Cong, who was about to get up, and Meng Cong pushed him away: "Help Xuan'er to go, where can I use you to help?" Let Xuan'er live in the palace, Seventh, you go back by yourself first. ”
"Yes, Father. That...... What my cousin said about the Xuandong flower......"
"Your cousin is drunk like this, so naturally I'll wait for him to wake up." Meng Cong reprimanded.
Yin Chengnian whispered: "That, Your Majesty, what about me?" ”
Meng Cong glanced at her, and then at Yu Ye, "Your master is drunk like this, don't you stay and serve her?" ”
Yu Ye said: "I don't need to serve, you better go back with the Seventh Prince." ”
Before Yin Chengnian could answer, Meng Qi snatched the right to speak, "He doesn't like you to serve him, you better come with me." ”
Yin Chengnian was afraid that Cai Ye and Meng Qi had a task to assign her, so he could only follow Meng Qi back to the house according to the wishes of the two of them. "Your Majesty, I'd better go back to the house with the Seventh Prince, the master has always said the same, and Cheng Nian doesn't dare to disobey the master's will."
Cai Ye's face was cold: "It's good that you know." Turning his face to face Meng Cong, he hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, Meng Xuan has lost his temper." It's just that Meng Xuan drank too much today, please forgive your majesty. ”
"Hey, you kid, why is the amount of alcohol so shallow? Hurry up and rest, don't stick here. ”
"But, the Xuandong flower ......"
Meng Cong said: "Let's talk about it tomorrow, you are drunk like this, and you can't get it, right?" ”
Rong Gonggong ordered the two little eunuchs to come up and support the bowl and help him inside, Meng Cong watched him turn the screen and enter the inner room, only to flick his sleeves, his eyes were cold: "Let's all step down." ”
The eunuch maid hurriedly withdrew from the hall, Meng Qi took Yin Chengnian to kneel, waited for Meng Cong to leave before getting up from the ground, glanced inside, and pulled Yin Chengnian: "Let's go, go home." ”
Yin Chengnian glanced back reluctantly, his footsteps were slowing, Meng Qi was helpless, and pulled her out, "Chengnian, you die." I've done everything I can, but he won't see you. Although I am the seventh prince of Mao Min, I have repeatedly touched his bottom line, he did not settle accounts with me, but just gave me a few thin noodles, and I will not be able to help you in the future. ”
His voice was not deliberately lowered, and he could hear it clearly.
Dish Ye did not come out.
Meng Qi didn't say a word wrong, he repeatedly helped Yin Chengnian get close to him, he didn't settle accounts with him, but because he knew that he was kind-hearted, but this didn't mean that he would tolerate him many times. stabbed the matter in front of Meng Cong today, and he didn't embarrass him on the spot, which was already the biggest limit.
If there was a next time, he wouldn't tolerate it anymore, and that's true.
Yin Chengnian, it's time to figure it out.
The footsteps of the dish Ye were vain, like stepping on the clouds, and the moment he saw the bed, he was crooked and lay down on the bed. The waiting eunuch shook him twice, his eyes closed tightly and there was no sign of opening them, and the two eunuchs gently pulled the quilt to cover him, and then retreated outside the screen.
After the two went out, Zhou Ye slowly opened his eyes. But it didn't move.
The furnishings in this house are not as good as they were back then, when he came, there was only a table, a chair and a bed in this palace, which was so simple that it was chilling, and the small palace was very empty because the furnishings were too simple.
He still vividly remembered that in such a humble house, there was a pungent smell of herbs, and his mother was so thin that only a handful of bones remained, her face was frighteningly white, her eye sockets were deep-set, and her eyes were so cloudy that she could hardly recognize people.
I don't know how much pain I have suffered to make people look like skeletons.
At that time, my mother suffered internal injuries, and her internal organs were seriously damaged, and her father-in-law, Feng Shijiu, said that she could not survive for more than three months. What kind of elixir was used to make her endure three years, he didn't know, and Feng Shijiu didn't tell him.
More than ten years have passed, and there is no smell of medicine in the house, and the furnishings in the house are exquisite and elegant, and the fragrance is everywhere, which is like the palace of a mother.
It's all gone.
I don't know if I can find some clues from here.
In the Emperor's Imperial Study.
Meng Cong turned his back to the door of the hall, his eyes looked at the rows of thick books on the shelves, and his voice was cold: "How is it?" ”
Gonggong Rong bent down, stood behind him, and replied cautiously: "I have searched it, not even an ant hole, but I haven't seen a single flower or leaf." ”
"Didn't leave any traces, did you?"
"The emperor can rest assured, the people sent are all veterans, and they are very cautious."
"Well, it's time for the seventh to go back, they've all withdrawn, right?"
"Withdraw, the emperor can rest assured."
"Let the prince come over."
"Whoa."
After a while, the crown prince Meng Jian entered the imperial study. The door to the imperial study was closed tightly after the prince entered.
Dish Ye lay on the bed until sunset, Meng Cong sent someone to send him to Minghua Palace for dinner, but he refused because he was drunk and couldn't get up. The eunuch saw that his face was pale and cold, and the kind of unangry and self-righteous momentum on his body forced people to dare not look directly, and they all retreated without saying a word.
There were also two eunuchs in the hall, who were left by Meng Cong when he left, the two eunuchs were trembling, and he raised his eyes to look at the two of them, and said, "Go and get me a basin of water to come in and wash." ”
One of the eunuchs went out to fetch water, and Yu Ye glanced at the other one again, "The clothes on my body are all smelling of alcohol, please ask my father-in-law to go to the Seven Princes' Mansion and bring one of my clothes." ”
"Yes, the minion will send someone."
The room was completely empty.
Dish Ye slowly stood up and looked around the room, although it had been redecorated, but the old traces wrapped in the new paint could not escape Dish Ye's eyes.
If his mother was really the one who worked in the organization, it would be impossible for this room to be without a secret compartment or something. He looked around and didn't find any mechanism or anything like that. His eyes went up again, and he didn't even let go of the beams, and he didn't find anything on the beams.
Cai Ye walked around the room again, every floor was not spared, and he was about to check even the bottom of the bed, when the little eunuch came in, Zhou Ye stopped his movements and went to wash his face, and the eunuch asked: "Since you don't go to Minghua Palace for dinner, the emperor ordered the servants to come here, Gongzi, do you want to put it over now?" ”
"Hmm." Yu Ye replied casually.
