Chapter 57 There are soft knives in the palace
"Changtian, Chu Ruojun is home, she is so dignified, she has nothing to do." Mrs. Lin's voice trembled, excited and full of sadness.
Lin Changtian was stunned for a moment, unable to believe it, "Really? ”
"Really, when did my mother lie to you." Mrs. Lin spoke slowly and patted him on the shoulder, "She's back." ”
"I'm going to see her." As he spoke, he was about to step out, and Mrs. Lin's arm on his shoulder was still trembling slightly, "Changtian, you can't go." ”
Lin Changtian was puzzled, "Why?" ”
"Because she's going to be the princess soon."
Mrs. Lin clearly felt that the man's body under the palm of her hand seemed to tremble slightly.
It seems that all the strength in my body is gone.
Mrs. Lin slowly raised her head, but only saw his jaw that was extremely tight.
"Changtian ......." she said slowly, pretending to be relaxed and laughing, "She's fine, that's already good, right?" ”
"Hmm." His voice was hoarse, and the scene of the separation four years ago seemed to appear before his eyes again.
But this time, it may not be separation, but it means that he will never get it.
Thinking of this, he felt that his heart was suddenly clutched by a pair of big hands, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Mrs. Lin looked at him with worry on her face: "Changtian, if you want to open it, my mother can find another family business for you." ”
"I'm fine." Lin Changtian's voice was extremely low, and his eyes were still dark, "It's good to be alone." ”
Mrs. Lin was a little flustered, and couldn't help but say, "Changtian, my mother knows that you feel uncomfortable, so you can slow down." ”
Lin Changtian's lips moved, he wanted to say that I don't want anyone but her, he wanted to say that I couldn't slow down, but in the end he didn't make any sound.
There was only one thing he had not forgotten, he was going to see her.
"Where are you going?"
Then Lin Changtian's restrained voice sounded: "I'm going to see her." ”
"Lin Changtian!" Mrs. Lin was a little anxious, "Is it because my mother didn't say it clearly enough?" She is already the one who is going to marry the King of Qi, and you can't go to see her anymore. ”
"I know......" Lin Changtian spit out these three words hoarsely.
"Then you go back!"
He closed his eyes fiercely, and only opened them after a while, looked at her, and said word by word: "Mother, I will take a look from a distance and not let her find out." ”
"You ......," Mrs. Lin choked up, "go ahead." ”
Of course, Lin Changtian is not the only one who is particularly interested in the emperor's marriage.
In the days when Chu Ruojun was missing, the most common thing the county lord of Nan'an did every day was to study how to arouse King Qi's appetite and let him eat more, so that his body would recover faster.
Although the first few times she sent it was returned intact, one time, she made a rose red bean cake and was unexpectedly kept by King Qi.
Sometimes she also went to the courtyard to play the piano, and heard that His Royal Highness the King of Qi loved music, and after marriage, the piano was Hening.
She has already, almost forgotten about Chu Ruojun.
Until the next person came to report: The emperor gave marriage to His Royal Highness King Qi and Chu Ruojun.
As soon as the words fell, the county lord of Nan'an choked on a mouthful of soup, and pointed at his subordinates and gasped, "You...... What did you say? ”
After the subordinate finished telling this matter as it was, the anger of the lord of Nan'an was almost boiling, and there was no piece of reason left, and in a state of anger, she swept all the cups on the table to the ground, her eyes full of anger.
"Get out, get out of here!" There was an angry curse from the room of the lord of Nan'an, and then all the maids stumbled out, one of them was soaked with tea, the other was holding a few fragments of disks in his hand, and someone was holding soup.
Several people were trembling, and they didn't even dare to breathe.
"What's wrong with the county lord?" A deep voice sounded, and the maids looked up and hurriedly knelt down.
"Returning to the country, the county lord is angry when he hears about the emperor's marriage."
Shao Guogong frowned, walked quickly to the door, and saw that half of the door was hidden, so he stretched out his hand to push it open and walked in.
"Who's coming in again, I told you to get out, did you hear that?"
"It's me." Shao Guogong's voice was calm, "Do you want me to get out?" ”
Shao Shifang was stunned, turned around, barely suppressed the anger in his heart, and pounced: "Dad, I'm not angry at you, I don't know it's you." ”
She hit things because of her anger, and even her sideburns were a little scattered, Shao Guogong stretched out his hand to straighten it out, and said with a smile: "What made you so angry?" ”
"Dad, how can you still laugh." Shao Shifang was anxious, "Don't you know that Chu Ruojun is not dead, and the emperor still gave her and King Qi a marriage?" ”
"I knew it was going to happen." Shao Guogong said gently, "What's the use of you being angry here alone, the marriage that should be done has to be done, it's better to go to Concubine Liu to think of a way." ”
Shao Shifang bit her cherry red lower lip and said in a low voice, "What can I think of?" ”
"You don't understand that." Shao Guogong frowned, "The women of the harem, there are many wrist methods, you have to study hard." ”
Shao Shifang nodded thoughtfully, "I'm going to go to Concubine Liu and discuss countermeasures together, I must not let Chu Ruojun's slut succeed!" ”
She moved quickly, and it didn't take long to reach Concubine Liu's bedroom.
"I've seen the concubine." The lord of Nan'an County bowed and saluted.
"It's the county lord who is here, excuse me, come and sit here, come." Concubine Liu raised her jade hand lightly and beckoned her to sit down beside her, "The county lord is here for the marriage, I won't tell you, I'm also very worried about this matter." ”
"It's true that for this matter, I always thought that Miss Chu was dead, and His Royal Highness would forget her, and sooner or later he would remember my good, but I didn't expect ......" The lord of Nan'an County said eloquently, his eyelashes were also a little moist, "I didn't expect her to come back again, and besides, His Royal Highness will ask the emperor for marriage so soon." ”
"I didn't expect it, but don't worry, I've already figured out how to deal with that Chu family, I want to be my daughter-in-law, it's not so easy, in this palace, there are soft knives, she wishes she hadn't entered the palace." Concubine Liu's eyes rolled, and she hooked her red lips and smiled contemptuously.
"There's a way for the concubine, can I help?" The county lord hurriedly leaned over and asked.
Concubine Liu smiled: "It doesn't hurt if I reveal one or two to you, this Chu family, the reputation is not good, as soon as the name spreads, she will be poked in the backbone by others, I will let her change her name and surname first, wash away the past, and only marry in with a new identity, I heard that she has a high spirit, this name change is a great shame in life, I don't believe she will agree." ”
"This method is not bad, Taifei." The county lord praised and asked, "That'...... What if she did say yes? ”
Concubine Liu held the tea and took a shallow sip, the white mist was filled in front of her, and her expression could not be seen clearly for a while.
"Don't worry, if she really changed her name and surname for Yi'er, I will pretend to accept her for the time being, and let Yi'er bring her to see, then Chu lost her mother when she was born, and lost her brother in the year of Xu, I decided that she was a dead star, hold on to this, if she talks back, I will pretend to be angry with her, if she endures and doesn't speak, I will say that she was rushed by the mourning star and suddenly contracted the disease." Concubine Liu's eyes flashed, and her tone was solemn, "I am not only sick, but also have an extremely rare disease that I have never seen before, so that the people in the Tai Hospital are helpless, only the judge of the Tai Hospital is well-informed, and told Yi'er that if you want to treat my disease, you need the blood of a martial arts daughter as a medicine, and when the time comes, ....... Even if she is really willing, the people in the Tai Hospital can also say that in order to prepare the next medicine, she still needs her blood, and General Chu may find the emperor to cancel the marriage at that time. ”
The county lord of Nan'an was suddenly shocked in her heart, before she came, all she thought about was how to find someone to assassinate Chu Ruojun, but she didn't expect that Concubine Liu had prepared so much, or a method she had never thought of, so she had to sigh and respect it.
Looking up at Concubine Liu, her face was still faint, and her lips maintained a smile from beginning to end.
It's simply the best explanation for hiding a knife in a smile.
"The concubine is really clever!" If the praise of the lord of Nan'an in the last sentence is just polite, this praise is sincere.
Concubine Liu put her slender jade hand on the hand of the county lord of Nan'an, patted it gently, and her voice was very soft: "The county lord can rest assured, this palace has a method, but there is also Si Tianjian in the Tai Hospital, and I have to bother the county lord to help." ”
"Well, as long as I can do it, the concubine just orders." The lord of Nan'an County spoke in a brisk tone, and he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips.
"Come, tea." Concubine Liu pushed a cup of white-scented tea to the hand of the lord of Nan'an.
When the county lord of Nan'an came, he was still crying with a sad face, his eyes were still shining with tears, and he looked aggrieved.
It's really simple-minded.
Concubine Liu smiled, "The county lord will go to the Empress Dowager to say goodbye later, if the Empress Dowager can summon Yi'er when I am sick and accuse him of forgetting filial piety, I believe that it will achieve twice the result with half the effort." ”
"I will definitely tell the Queen Mother." The lord of Nan'an pursed his cherry lips and smiled sweetly.
The stone hanging in her heart finally landed, and there was no need for her to continue to stay, so she got up and said goodbye after a while.
Seeing the county lord of Nan'an walking away, Concubine Liu narrowed her narrow beautiful eyes, like a cunning fox.
She raised her fingertips, lightly knocked on the table, and said to herself: "It's a young man, this is not the last step, the last step is to be put to death, there is no possibility of survival." ”
She smiled and lazily opened the wooden box beside her, which contained only a small and inconspicuous bottle.
In the small bottle, there is a warm and brilliant red.
"Chu Clan, it's not that I want to harm you, but your life, it's really not good."
