Chapter 38: Cheating

Last time she went to the eldest princess's mansion to visit the injured eldest princess, a young man walked out of the eldest princess's house, who was today's King Qi.

When King Qi left the eldest princess's mansion, the eldest princess also dropped a teacup. The relationship between the two doesn't seem to be as good as it is today, and Zhou Shuxuan also said that the eldest princess doesn't particularly like King Qi.

But in today's situation, it doesn't seem right.

Although the relationship between the eldest princess and King Qi is not particularly warm, it is definitely not bad.

Miao Li felt strange in her heart, and asked Zhou Shuxuan tentatively: "Lord, the eldest princess seems to be inferior to the king of Qi. ”

Zhou Shuxuan had a faint smile on his face, put down the book in his hand and said, "The eldest princess doesn't like King Qi to follow her every day, and she loves to nag in her ear non-stop. ”

Miaoli was confused when she heard this, and asked again: "The slave doesn't seem to be a nagging person when she looks at the eldest princess. ”

Zhou Shuxuan laughed again: "When did this king say that the eldest princess loves to nag?" I'm talking about King Qi's love to nag. ”

"What?" Miao Li was surprised, and her tone was full of disbelief.

Just now, I saw that Qi Wang was full of masculinity, almost with a straight face, and he was no better than Zhou Shuxuan. is a person who leads troops in battle, how can he like to nag like a woman?

Zhou Shuxuan asked rhetorically: "It's incredible? ”

Miao Li nodded and said, "It's not incredible, it's just that I can't think of why King Qi is like this?" ”

Zhou Shuxuan looked outside the house, his gaze became very distant, as if he was recalling a past incident, and he spoke for a long time: "Probably because the eldest princess saved his life." In the twelfth year of Shengping, the Xiqi Kingdom invaded the border, and the two countries fought at Meiliang Pass. The eldest princess was the general who led the troops at that time, and the king of Qi was just a small captain.

King Qi had just entered the barracks, and he was young and vigorous. Xiqi called for the battle, and the king of Qi did not listen to the advice of the eldest princess, and preferred to be the first officer. Whoever wants to be inferior in skills will stab the other general under the horse with a shot, and life and death will only be a matter of an instant. The eldest princess broke into the formation single-handedly and desperately rescued King Qi, but she was shot twice. After raising in the army for a long time, he picked up a life from the ghost gate.

After that, wherever you can see the eldest princess, you can see King Qi. The eldest princess also asked the emperor for a holy decree that the king of Qi was not allowed to approach her. ”

"Did the emperor make this holy decree?"

Zhou Shuxuan shook his head and said, "How could the emperor make such a ridiculous decree? They are aunts and nephews. At that time, there were few generals who could be used, and the emperor was still waiting for the eldest princess to teach King Qi to lead the troops to fight, how could he do it without contact? ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Shuxuan was a little uneasy in his heart. Why did the eldest princess choose to help him instead of helping King Qi? King Qi has been by her side for so many years, saying that she is bored, and she must have feelings in her heart. Why not be closer than him? But in the Zongren Mansion, the eldest princess clearly said that she wanted to help him.

Miao Li shouted at him again, "Lord Wang? ”

Zhou Shuxuan suddenly came back to his senses, "What's wrong?" ”

"Lord Wei came to ask, is it time to set the meal?"

Zhou Shuxuan looked at the sun, it was indeed not early, and the day passed like this. Since he broke his leg, he has not done anything every day, and the day is over quickly. He could clearly feel that time was passing little by little, and he couldn't do anything.

Hateful!

He just can't go out of the small mansion, and he still has to stir up a few points in the country.

Zhou Shuxuan propped his head and waved his hand and said, "Let's set the meal." ”

Zhou Shuxuan's appetite has not been very good recently, and the kitchen has changed to cook for him, but he still can't arouse any interest, and only needs a little food, watching him lose weight day by day. In the past few days, I have been staying in the Zongren Mansion, and I seem to have lost weight again when I came back.

How can you do great things without a good body? Miao Li saw that she was anxious in her eyes, and took chopsticks to help him with vegetables, all of which were chosen to supplement her body.

Zhou Shuxuan's bowl was already piled up like a hill, and Miaoli was still picking up vegetables for him. Zhou Shuxuan said coldly: "Enough, are you feeding the pigs?" ”

Miao Li glanced at his bowl, put down the chopsticks and stepped aside, still muttering in her heart, if only it was as easy to feed him as it was to feed the pig, at least the pig gave what to eat.

I complained in my heart for a while, and suddenly a little girl came in behind me and said, "Girl, someone is looking for you outside." ”

Looking for her? Miao Li was puzzled in her heart, her popularity in the house was similar to Zhou Shuxuan's popularity in the court, and she had no friends. After she moved into Zhou Shuxuan's yard, it was equivalent to breaking off from the past.

Miao Li went out with suspicion, and as soon as she went out, she saw a person with a somewhat familiar face. After looking at it carefully, she remembered that this was the concubine's house, and it seemed to be called Mo Lan.

As soon as Mo Lan saw her, as if she couldn't wait, she greeted her directly, grabbed her hand and said, "Sister, you can come out." Now your identity is different, you are a celebrity in front of the prince, and you still need to report if you want to see you. ”

Miao Li was a little unaccustomed to her enthusiasm, she didn't have much friendship with this Mo Lan, she pulled out her hand, and stood aside a little before she spoke, "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”

Mo Lan cautiously looked left and right, and after making sure that no one was eavesdropping, she said mysteriously, "My sister hasn't returned to the concubine's house for so long, and he can't find anyone when he comes to you." ”

Miao Li was confused, why couldn't she understand what she was talking about?

"Him?"

Mo Lan motioned for her to be quieter, looked around again, and said in a low voice, "Sister, did she forget the previous things when she climbed the high branches?" Have you forgotten your uncle's son-in-law? It's just that I come to see you often. ”

Miao Li didn't know a word about these things she said! The intention of her coming is a little clearer, although I don't know what it is, but it is certain that it is definitely not a good thing.

Miao Li completely distanced herself from her, raised her voice and said, "I don't know what you are talking about, if you don't have anything else, please go back." ”

She was loud, Mo Lan didn't suppress her voice anymore, and deliberately raised her voice, a few points louder than hers, and said, "Sister, don't pretend not to know!" This is what the second son asked me to hand over to you, and he also said that if it is convenient, I will ask you to meet at the old place tomorrow. ”

As she spoke, Mo Lan took out a fan from her sleeve and stuffed it into her hand.

How could Miaoli ask for these unclear things, resolutely not. The two of you come and go, Miao Li seems to be a little bigger, and Mo Lan falls to the ground according to her strength. shouted: "What are you pushing me to do with these unseemly things you did yourself?" ”

This sound successfully attracted Zhou Shuxuan's attention, he had a good appetite today, and he had already finished eating the dishes that Miao Li gave him, and Wei Hai gave him what he didn't like very much. I'm wondering why people haven't come back? And he heard the voice of Mo Lan.

Who was it who disturbed him eating so unexpectedly, and asked with a displeased expression: "Who is making noise outside?" ”

"Minions go out and have a look."

Wei Hai hurriedly ran out, and when he saw that it was Miaoli and Mo Lan, he didn't put Mulan in his eyes, and said directly to Miaoli: "Girl, the prince let you in." ”

Miao Li glared at Mo Lan with disgust, lifted her skirt and walked into the house.

After entering the house, he stood directly behind Zhou Shuxuan, and Mo Lan had to bow and kowtow in a proper manner.

"Slave Mo Lan asks the prince for peace."

Zhou Shuxuan leaned back in his chair and asked condescendingly: "Say, which temple immortal are you?" ”

Mo Lan squeezed her veil tightly, she has been in the mansion for five years, and the prince still doesn't know her. But he didn't dare to show it on his face, and said in a soft voice: "The slave and maid are not immortals, and the slave and maid are concubines." ”

Zhou Shuxuan sneered, "You are not an immortal, where did you have the courage to quarrel with this king to eat?" ”

Mo Lanxin couldn't say it well, and wanted to shift the focus, so she lowered her head and said: "The slave maid is here to find Miss Miaoli, and she inadvertently made a noise to the prince to eat, and the slave maid deserves death." ”

Just now, there was a sister outside, and she called the girl again in front of Zhou Shuxuan.

Zhou Shuxuan grasped the key point and asked, "What are you looking for her for?" ”

Mo Lan pretended to hesitate for a moment and said, "Someone asked the slave to hand over something to the girl, and the girl was embarrassed to ask for it, so we had a dispute." ”

Zhou Shuxuan glanced at Miaoli and asked, "What is it?" ”

Mo Lan respectfully handed over the thing, this is not an ordinary fan pendant, it is carved out of fine mutton fat white jade. The identity of the person who delivers the thing is definitely not ordinary.

Zhou Shuxuan raised the thing in his hand to Miaoli's eyes, and asked in a cold voice, "Why don't you?" ”

Miao Li asked rhetorically with a backbone: "What is unknown from an unknown source, why do slaves and maids?" ”

Zhou Shuxuan looked at Mo Lan again, "She said that the source is unknown, so you tell her what the source is?" ”

Miao Li felt that Zhou Shuxuan was crazy today, and he actually had time to take care of these things. According to his temper, shouldn't he just let people blast Mo Lan out?

"This ......" Mo Lan pretended to say: "In front of the prince, I am afraid that the girl's reputation will be ruined, and the slave and maid dare not say it." ”

Zhou Shuxuan seemed to be a little interested, and played with the fan pendant in his hand and asked, "What do you dare not say in front of this king?" But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

Mo Lan glanced at Miao Li fakely, and pretended to think for a while before speaking, "This is what the second son of the uncle's family handed over to the girl, and the slave maid asked the girl to meet in the old place tomorrow." ”

This uncle's family is talking about Concubine Liang's mother's mother's family, that is, Zhou Shuxuan's grandfather's family, but he has little contact with Zhou Shuxuan.

Zhou Shuxuan looked at the fan pendant in his hand, there was no joy or anger on his face, and he said in a cold voice: "It seems that what you want to say is more than that, make it clear." ”

Mo Lan seemed to see a little hope, and said in a suggestive tone: "Miss Miaoli used to have a very good relationship with the second son, I don't know if it's ......"

Zhou Shuxuan kindly helped her make up for it, "It's cheating, right?" ”

When Miaoli heard this, she quickly knelt on the ground and shouted for herself, "The slave doesn't know who the second son is, please find out." ”

Zhou Shuxuan didn't even look at her, raised his hand and smashed the fan pendant on Mo Lan's face, "Let your mother fart!" I'm afraid you can't bear the loneliness! To be honest, how long have you been hooking up with the Li family? ”
