CHAPTER XLV
I walked back side by side with the little ghost, and I asked her if she knew why Aster had fled at that stall, but she had taken advantage of the time and place, and besides the people, she fled so unexpectedly that I was a little worried now.
The little girl wanted to speak and stopped, but she said it anyway.
She said that she heard Aster seem to say something at that time, saying "Second Highness, you are so poisonous", and then flew away holding her stomach.
I thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure it out, who are these two highnesses referring to? Could it be that one of her accomplices showed up at that time? And she was plotted by her accomplices?
The little female ghost said: "At that time, her face was directed at the ninth prince, and the words seemed to be directed at the ninth prince." ”
Nine sons, which one is it?
The little girl grimaced, but the night was dark, and her face was so dirty that I couldn't see the color, and I felt it purely from her movements.
She said: "The ninth prince is the ninth prince of Xiao." ”
Well, I admit that I asked too much, in the eyes of others, especially women, Xiao Jiu can still be regarded as a handsome son.
However, you just call him a son, why add a "nine" word, I don't know that he hates others to rank him, last time I asked him how old he was at home, he convicted me of gossiping about people's privacy.
As I walked, I wondered what Aster meant.
Suddenly, I was blessed with a soul and figured it all out.
Aster must not have said "Second Highness, you are so poisonous", but "Hey, my stomach hurts".
That makes sense.
Aster is purely in a hurry, rushing to the toilet, so she can't take care of me.
Or could she have let me go so easily?
Back in the cold palace, Donglin and the others were busy arranging the following tasks, and I remembered that Aster was just an appetizer, and the real enemy had not yet appeared.
I asked Donglin, "Did Aster escape and report the news, will we be served tonight?" ”
Donglin shook his head and said: "She herself is difficult to protect, how can she still have the energy to care about the life and death of others, besides, she is not very loyal to the one in the palace, and she can't talk about reporting the news." ”
I wanted to ask Aster what had happened before she fled, but seeing that they were silent and had no intention of making small talk with me, I had to shut up.
However, this matter became an unsolved case in my heart, and from time to time it popped up for me to think about, and I came up with a hundred different solutions, but in the end I cried when I learned the truth, which is exactly what happened.
Finally waited for Donglin Qing to be free, I asked him where he saw that something was wrong with Aster, and did he start to pay attention to her in his usual relationship?
Donglin was stunned, "Has she usually appeared in front of my eyes?" How I don't remember. ”
I have a very complicated heart, the feelings of Aster in front of you are ugly, wrestling, beating, is there not enough bath, or should she make persistent efforts to be more out of line, so that you will remember others?
Donglin said, "Do you remember what I said to you when I came in? The queen is a nobleman, even if she is abolished, she must have a palace person to serve her, but it is quiet here, we have been in for a long time, and there is no one, so I said that something is not right here. ”
I nodded, but I also felt that something was not quite right at the time, but now I just figured it out.
"It wasn't until Aster appeared that I confirmed my suspicions, do you remember the chicken soup in Aster's hand?"
I nodded, but what's wrong with the chicken soup, is it poisoned in it, or the ingredients are not clean, and eating it will cause diarrhea?
Donglin glanced at me and said, "Chicken soup is nothing, but the origin of chicken soup is interesting." ”
I was shocked, could it be that the chicken soup was snatched from the dog's mouth, or was it leftovers from someone else's eating, or was it secretly stolen from Aster somewhere?
Donglin raised his forehead, "Ding Qianqian, are you a little promising, of course the chicken soup is brought from the kitchen, and the money spent is also the queen's silver." ”
So what's wrong with chicken broth like this?
Donglin said: "The problem arises here, even if the queen's emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, but the imperial dining room has always been to watch people put down dishes, and the chicken soup brought by the aster is of the highest quality, nourishing the body and nourishing the blood, even if it is the ability of the aster, the people in the imperial dining room are extraordinarily charitable today, but the two guards are not decorations, they will never let the aster go out because of a few taels of silver, but the aster goes out and comes in like a family yard, there must have been someone in it who has ordered." I asked these two guards, and it was true that someone had instructed them not to interfere with the words and deeds of the queen's maids, so Aster seemed particularly suspicious. ”
Shen Stick continued: "She is not just suspicious, her body is full of flaws, although the queen was deposed, and the palace maids around her suffered, but it is not to describe being haggard like that, she made a distressed appearance, just to cover up." ”
I disagreed: "She was already in trouble, what's wrong with making the appearance of being in trouble, even if she wants to cover it up, how can you see it?" ”
"Don't you pay attention to her undergarment," said the stick, "though the outer garment is old, the inner garment is brand new, and the materials used are of the highest quality." Her hair is deliberately disheveled on her head, but there is a golden hairpin inserted in it, just ask, such a difference between the outside and the inside, can't I still see that there is something wrong with her? ”
Of course there is a problem, you are a god, pay attention to other people's underwear, isn't this the biggest problem?
I suddenly remembered a question and asked Donglin: "Aster said that you once saved her, or for my sake, right?" ”
Donglin said: "She was almost destroyed back then, but I poured a scoop of water on her, which can be regarded as saving her life." ”
I'm a little confused, Donglin's words are a metaphor or a metaphor, that scoop of water shouldn't mean a scoop of water, and she is not a plant, she can survive by watering.
I said with great interest: "That is, for the sake of my face, you saved Aster, in fact, you didn't have to look at my face at that time, if you didn't look at my face back then, I wouldn't be held hostage by her today, she will take revenge like this, and she is really not worthy of me as a life-saving benefactor." ”
The corners of Donglin's mouth twitched slightly: "Who said that I was looking at your face, I just said it in passing, I just wanted Aster to be fooled, but I didn't expect her to be fooled, you took it seriously." ”
I retorted to him: "Donglin, even if you look at my face, you don't have to be so evasive, what's so embarrassing about this, I also accepted the meeting gifts of those palace maids for the sake of your face a few days ago, didn't you find that your peach blossoms were extraordinarily prosperous in those days?" And the ones I chose for you are all beautiful women, and I will definitely not dishonor you. ”
Donglin's face changed, and he said three words fiercely: "Ding Qianqian!" ”
Shen Stick smiled happily: "I said that in the past few days, why did you have a disgraced face, and you didn't go out of the door, it turned out that Ding Qianqian looked at your face and pulled the red line for you." It's really gratifying, gratifying! ”
Donglin brushed his sleeves away, saying that we are a raccoon dog, and we have the posture of not getting along with each other.
I easily forgave him for his rudeness, after all, he and the queen are now in a hot fight, and ordinary women are unsightly. But after all, the queen has a master, Donglin will definitely be sad in the future, and when he is sad again, he will definitely remember my kindness to him for pulling the red line, which I am still very confident in.
It's just that I don't understand one thing, why does Donglin say that I am of the same clan as Aster?
Xiao Jiu passed by at this time and answered my question.
He said, "Of course you are of the same race, and you are all the same stupid. ”
Fortunately, the god stick is sensible, and he said this badly, which made me feel a little grateful to him.
But before this gratitude has fermented, it has frozen into a lump.
He said: "Aster is not stupid, she knows that her sword has been dropped, and she plays it so realistically, if it weren't for her last sword throw, I would have thought my plan was seamless." ”
You've already dropped the sword, so why didn't you let me know in advance? It made me almost make a fool of myself in public.
The god stick said: "If I notify you in advance, how can you behave so realistically, how can you deceive the eyes of Aster, and more importantly, this is all for your own good, the so-called eating a trench and growing a wisdom, your IQ is now much higher than just now." ”
I was stunned for a moment, and instantly realized that the god stick was mocking me, and it seems that my IQ has really improved a lot.
