Chapter 66: The New Year's Invitation
When I woke up, I saw the cold bed next to me, and he really didn't come to accompany me.
Last night, I dreamed of drinking with Wuji, and this cold and moody prince burned down Wanhualou.
I shook my head, what kind of weird dreams they had.
Dressed up, I saw the butler outside my door, as if he had something to say.
"What?" I cleared my voice and spoke slowly.
"Back to the princess, Steward Liu in Xiangye's mansion is waiting for you in the front hall, saying that Xiangye has something important to discuss with you." My heart thumped, and a bad feeling rose from my heart, which I hadn't felt since I had been married for a long time.
Nianfu, I hated that place to the extreme.
At this time, Nian Xiang should be plotting with King You to force the palace, how can I have time to deal with my married daughter.
"Steward Liu, I don't know what Daddy is looking for me?" I sat on the main seat, tasted the Biluochun in my hand, and asked slowly.
"The third lady born to the second lady has made a big mistake recently, saying that she accidentally let the young concubine lose the child, and the young lady said that she was going to kill the third lady, and the old slave was already executed when she came," the housekeeper said slowly after considering his words.
I thought in my mind, what I said that day was to let Wuji drop her fetus on my wedding day, how could it be because of Rong'er, hearing that the execution was already being carried out, there was a trace of pain and anxiety between my eyebrows.
"That's the Prime Minister's business, what's my business? The tired housekeeper told me that the concubine was not free, so she would not go back."
But soon the butler brought out something that made my pupils shrink sharply, and he pulled an object out of his bosom.
"The second lady said that the princess had a good relationship with the third lady, and begged the princess to go back and save the third lady's life." Let's present the bracelet I gave to Rong'er earlier.
The second lady betrayed me for Rong'er, this recognition made my heart cold, and she told me to be careful of Xiangye on the day I got married.
But she is the only warmth I can still remember when I think of Nianfu.
I was stunned for a moment, and said slowly, "Concubine Rong Ben is a little prepared." ”
"Ye Qing, you go to Wanhualou to find Wuji, and let him go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to save me."
What I don't know is that the Wanhua Building that I thought was burned in my dream last night really let the Spirit King burn it down, so Ye Qing, who was ordered out at this moment, did not find Wuji.
The carriage swayed, and I saw the Nian Mansion heavily guarded.
"Where did so many officers and soldiers come from?" I asked the butler with a frown.
"Back to the princess, it was the child of the concubine who was accidentally knocked off by the third lady, so Prince You sent many officers and soldiers to the Nian Mansion, saying that he wanted to interrogate this matter."
"Is Prince Yu in the mansion at the moment?" I asked instinctively, trembling.
"When the old slave went to invite the princess, Prince You was not there, and I didn't know if I could be in the front hall." His words made me feel like I had taken a reassuring pill, and it was good that the person was not there.
The butler led me to the front hall, and I saw two men sitting in the hall, Xiangye and Prince You.
Tang Xia Nian Huairou sat there with a pale face, the third aunt and the fourth aunt had a happy expression, the second lady knelt on the ground with Rong'er in tears, I saw Rong'er's legs covered with blood, weakly fell into the arms of the second lady, and the rattan on the side of the family was stained with blood.
Xiang Ye is really unequivocal about his own daughter.
"I've seen Daddy, I've seen Youwang." I saluted them, walked to the first place on the left, and sat down steadily.
"Now that everyone is here, let's interrogate it." Youwang said softly, his eyes swept over my body, making me feel very uncomfortable.
"Rong'er, how did you bump into Concubine Nian? That is, your eldest sister," the prime minister asked the child who was not yet six years old.
"I didn't hit the eldest sister, it was the eldest sister who fell down by herself, I didn't, I didn't" In the end, I was afraid, and the words of the mouth tightly tugged at the second lady's heart,
I saw the second lady look at me worriedly, I vaguely guessed that today's scene was to lure me back, I haven't even returned to the door since I got married, Xiangye and Youwang thought of this method to trick me back.
No one knows how the child fell, and the second lady must believe that it is impossible for her Rong'er to do such a thing, but with the merciless whipping of the whip, she will hand over the mother-child bracelet, which can be regarded as helpless.
"If the child of the concubine is touched by Rong'er at will, King You, I really wonder if the concubine is really pregnant this year?" I opened my mouth leisurely and blew on the tea in the teacup, but I didn't take a sip.
"What does Princess Ling mean by this, thinking that I have deceived King You by faking my pregnancy?" Nian Huairou couldn't sit still, and a word sarcastically came over.
"What's in your stomach, if you want the doctor to take a look, you'll know." I said lightly, the child should have been gone a few days ago, but now it was knocked off by Rong'er, which made the doctor know that the time was not right.
I saw the panic flashing in Nian Huairou's eyes, the child was gone a few days ago, even Youwang believed that he was stimulated by Nian Qianmo before, and this time the child hit himself before he dropped the child today, if this is to let the imperial doctor take a pulse, won't it all be exposed?
"It seems that the side concubine understands her belly the most, and even hides her husband, this person marries into the palace, and her courage has increased."
"Doctor, please." Youwang glanced at Nian Huairou coldly, which made his already pale face a little flustered.
He looked at me again, hissing like a cold snake spitting out letters, which made me feel a little cool in this August weather.
"Back to the prince, the child of the Nian side concubine has been miscarried for more than a week, and it is not a miscarriage today, but the fetus of the year side concubine is not clean, so there are often blood stains."
The old words of the house doctor seemed to sentence Nian Huairou, and she suddenly fell to the chair.
She looked at the Youwang, this was his child after all, probably hoping that he would take pity on herself and not care about herself and deceiving him.
But the goal of the Youwang today is not to pursue this matter at all, he is just using this woman to contain the Spirit King, and asking him not to interfere in the change of the throne is one of the reasons, and at the same time, he has not been thinking about this woman for a day or two.
"So it's none of Rong'er's business, Daddy should let the house doctor show Rong'er's leg as soon as possible, and the girl won't have any scars. Now that the matter is settled, Daddy, I'll go back to the Spirit King's Mansion first" I don't want to stay here for a moment, I just want to go back to that man's territory immediately.
"In that case, the second lady will take Rong'er back, the third aunt, the fourth aunt, you will also go back, we still have important matters to discuss with the prince." Xiangye spat out the words coldly, and asked people to take them to the backyard.
"Come on, the side concubine is unwell in childbirth, and she will take her back to the pavilion to rest."
I discussed with them what could I do, but I felt that it was not good, and I was about to raise my feet and leave, when I suddenly felt a little weak, I was able to hold on to the chair next to me so that I did not fall down, I looked at the tea that I had not taken a sip of, and then looked at Prince You, who was sitting on the throne, and squinted slightly.
I saw Xiang Ye just shook his hands and left, a cold despair rose in my heart, the footsteps of the King of Youwang had already come to me, the trembling in my heart rose from my feet again, my nails dug into the flesh to barely give myself some sobriety, gritted my teeth and asked, "What have you done to me?" ”
He didn't answer, just waited quietly for how long I could last.
But after all, he fell down in the dark.
The king of Youwang took a brisk step and caught me who had fainted.
When I woke up, I just felt weak, and I couldn't use my hands and feet.
The soft tendons are loose, and I am being given soft tendons.
I saw Xiangye walking in with a gloomy face, and said weakly: "You don't hesitate to sacrifice your own daughter for outsiders, it's really a rare good father." ”
He rarely didn't care about the irony in my words, and said: "It doesn't matter whether Nian Huairou is really an outsider or not."
"But Dad, you know that she is not the daughter of the Nian family." Before I finished my words, Xiangye fell on my face with a very sharp palm wind, I couldn't stand it and stumbled down on the edge of this table, and brought down the neatly arranged teacups on the table, and the water in the pot rolled on the back of my hand, and I frowned in pain.
"But why do you still want to follow her to do this kind of thing to plot the dynasty and usurp the throne, do you think that the king of you can sit in that position?"
After saying this, I saw the King of Darkness slowly swinging in.
In addition to my surprise, there is an incomprehensible shock and pain, does this Xiangye plan to give me to the king of Youwang like this?
The army in the northwest should have arrived in the suburbs of Beijing long ago, His Majesty is already seriously ill, once His Majesty dies, Liang Guifei will force the palace with King You, if he sits on the throne, according to his cruel methods, the prince and Long Yuling will not die well.
"Why can't I?"
Xiang Ye arched his hand towards the Youwang and retreated, the moment I opened the door, I saw the heavy soldiers outside the door, three layers inside and three layers outside, this is not my family.
"Don't look at it, I transferred those guards to watch you."
"Seeking the dynasty to usurp the throne, the mother concubine killed the monarch and forced the palace, and you can sit comfortably on the throne that you got like this?" I gently wiped the blood from my mouth and said word by word.
He finally changed his face a little, and a touch of struggle quickly disappeared, and said unnaturally: "Don't talk about my mother like that, otherwise she will be unhappy when I accept you as a concubine." ”
"Hmph, are you dreaming?" After that, I didn't look at him, I didn't say much, I looked at the sky, Wuji would definitely come back to me.
He pulled me over and put me against the table of fine golden silk nanmu, and looked at the unfazed look on my face, which made him feel very annoyed for no reason.
The hand gripping my shoulder blade grew harder and harder, as if it was about to dig into my flesh.
I was extremely angry: "You'd better worship the Buddha day and night and pray that you can successfully usurp the throne and sit on the throne, otherwise you will be defeated one day, and the first person to kill you will definitely be me." ”
"Nian Qianmo, don't challenge my patience too much." As if his kindness had been ruined, he gritted his teeth and said.
I frowned not because of the burns on my hands, nor because of the pain in my shoulder blades, but because I felt the change in the man's body on my body.
