Chapter 258: Embarrassed
As soon as the emperor went out, Concubine Pei opened her eyes.
The door closed softly, and she sat up silently.
No matter how much she doesn't care about idle things, how can she be by the emperor's side every day, how can she be ignorant of what is happening?
Yuyang came to sue, she knew.
As for the content, looking at the emperor's performance today, you can guess that eight or nine are not far from ten.
He felt guilty about her, so he was extra gentle.
To this day, what else can she do to make him feel guilty? Nothing more than one person.
But Pei Guifei knew that she couldn't say anything. He wouldn't like it, she could get a glimpse of her own mind.
She can only pretend not to know, she can only be more and more tender to him, only in this way can she make him feel pity and leave some room for action.
After a while, the door of the temple opened softly again.
When the emperor saw her sitting, he asked softly, "Why are you awake?" ”
Concubine Pei raised her head: "Where has Your Majesty gone?" The side was suddenly empty, and the concubine woke up. ”
"I just feel a little stuffy, and I can breathe outside." The emperor took off his coat, sat on the bed, and held her shoulder, "It's not good for me, I've woken you up, go back to sleep." ”
Concubine Pei agreed, and the two of them lay down again.
"Is Your Majesty embarrassed?" Pei Guifei turned to face him, "Because of the demon star? ”
The emperor sighed: "It's not a good sign." But it's not a big deal, just ask Xuanduguan to stare at it. ”
Pei Guifei looked at his expression carefully, and then smiled: "It seems that Your Majesty has solved it, so the concubine won't talk much." ”
The emperor turned his head sideways and patted him through the quilt: "Tell Concubine Ai to worry, go to sleep." ”
"Hmm." Pei Guifei closed her eyes and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
It seems that the emperor did not intend to delve into it. That's good......
……
Ming Wei returned to the view, and before he entered the guest house, he saw a person hidden in the shadows.
She came over, and the other party moved: "You are still willing to come back!" The voice was full of resentment.
Ming smiled: "Cousin, is this waiting for me?" ”
Ji Xiaowu said to himself: "I said, don't you think you're excessive? Before I was at home, I was able to return late occasionally. At this time, I was outside, and it was actually mixed until the middle of the night. Do you remember being a girl? My father and mother have asked me several times, but I have to come out and wait. ”
Mingwei didn't care: "Didn't you ask Duofu to come back to report the news?" ”
"Do you think they won't be worried? Come on, you're not an ordinary person, but they are! ”
Mingwei apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't think about it thoughtfully." ”
Ji Xiaowu pouted: "Pretend to be obedient again, apologize faster than anyone else, and don't repent next time you die, you don't know about me?" ”
Mingwei could only smile: "My cousin still understands me." ”
Ji Xiaowu snorted: "Cheeky! ”
After being silent for a while, Mingwei asked, "Cousin, don't you go back?" ”
Ji Xiaowu was still leaning against the wall, with no intention of moving. He looked at Mingwei from head to toe and said, "You haven't said it yet, where have you gone?" ”
"You want to know?"
Ji Xiaowu turned his head to look at the flowers and plants on the side of the road: "My intuition tells me that you are playing ghost again." In order to prevent being cheated by you, it is better to figure out your intentions as soon as possible. ”
Mingwei wanted to laugh again: "Don't say it, cousin, I'm thinking about it." ”
"Think about how to trick us?"
"Yes! This matter, if you really want to do it, not only you, but also your uncle and eldest cousin, all of them will jump into the pit together. ”
Ji Xiaowu turned back and looked at her seriously: "It doesn't matter if you pit me, they are ordinary people who just want to live an ordinary life." ”
Ming Wei was surprised: "So, my cousin is willing to serve the tiger in exchange for my uncle's freedom?" ”
Ji Xiaowu snorted and did not answer.
"Okay." Mingwei thought for a while, "If my cousin is willing to help me sincerely, then I reluctantly agree." ”
"Phew!" Ji Xiaowu couldn't help it, "It's obvious that you're cheating people, as if I'm going to be grateful to you." ”
"That's the case!" Mingwei replied very cheekily.
She crossed Ji Xiaowu and entered the guest house.
"Hey, you haven't made it clear yet!" Ji Xiaowu had to follow up.
Mingwei pushed open the door of the wing, turned his head and said, "What, does my cousin want to have a long talk with me?" ”
"......" Ji Xiaowu looked at Master Ji's room and cursed in a low voice, "You wait, sooner or later you have to make it clear to me." ”
Forget it today, if his father and mother find out, he and his cousin will be in the same room in the middle of the night, and they won't turn the sky upside down? Spare her for once!
sent Ji Xiaowu away, and Mingwei closed the door.
"Miss." Duofu was still waiting for her, and when he saw her return, he busily went to fetch hot water and serve her to wash.
After freshening up, Mingwei sat in front of the window to dry her hair.
Outside, there was a crescent moon, and the light of the moon was scattered in front of the window.
After being open and honest, Ning Xiu asked her, "Do you want to tell him about this?" ”
Mingwei pondered for a long time, feeling embarrassed.
Reasoning, such a major matter, you can't help but tell the parties.
But she really couldn't predict Yang Shu's reaction.
How do you say that? said that not only is his eight characters fake, but even his identity is fake? To say that he may be the orthodox of the imperial family, more justified than the current emperor?
It's easy to say, but what do you ask him to do?
"Let's not talk about it yet." Ming Wei said, "We are just speculating now, and only when we find out the truth can we have empirical evidence." ”
Ning Xiu nodded, and asked her again: "Do you really want to help him achieve something expensive?" ”
Ming Wei showed a wry smile: "I don't have too many choices, and this may be the best result for him." ”
Ning Xiu thought for a moment and said, "I don't know what you're doing, but I have to remind you." This is his life, and it is up to him to choose. I can hide it for now, but I don't want you to decide everything for him. ”
Mingwei smiled: "Sir, don't worry, I understand." ”
"If only you really understood."
Pulling back his thoughts, Ming sighed slightly.
How could Ning Xiu know about her difficulties? The second prince and the third prince are unreliable, she puts her hopes on the prince, who knows that the prince is not much better. Because of jealousy, he assassinated Yang Shu like this, if he really let him ascend the throne, I don't know what he would do.
The crown prince himself is mediocre in intelligence, if he doesn't even have a good character, what reason is there for him to sit on the supreme position?
But the emperor only has less than seven years, and he doesn't know if he will find a reliable prince.
But do you really want to support Yang Shu? The road is no easy either. He is not even clear about his background now, and it is not easy to obtain the qualification to succeed to the throne.
What's more, would he be willing to take this path? I'm afraid not......
"Miss, aren't you still sleeping?" Dof's voice came.
Mingwei asked casually: "Duofu, if you have a very difficult thing, what will you do?" ”
Duofu blinked: "There is nothing difficult about the slave maid!" ”
"I mean if."
Duofu thought for a moment: "The slave doesn't know. However, Mama said that the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and when the time comes, you may know what to do. ”
Mingwei was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Reasonable." We'll see. ”
