Chapter 33 The Long Pavilion Story

"I think that if the prince was far away at the time, he couldn't see it really, and after listening to what the Zhao family said, it would be normal for him to think like this." Jiang Wanrong continued to defend the crown prince.

Such an argument is reasonable, and He Xuan does not intend to continue to be more serious. She used to be such a pure and good person, however, after twenty-five years of life in her last life, looking at this fourteen-year-old girl, she knew that time would teach this woman to grow.

He Xuan lowered her head slightly and blinked, she sincerely hoped that the woman opposite would not have to go through those too cruel things.

The expression on the princess's face was a little aggrieved, a little embarrassed, and a little uneasy.

He Xuan smiled from the bottom of his heart, gently patted the back of Jiang Wanrong's white hand, and said with a smile: "Crown Princess, there is no need to worry like this, today's matter has passed." I just hope you're doing well, because the first time I saw you, I felt like I was in love with you. Like I said last time, if you have anything in the future, just come to me. ”

"The second princess is really a good person, I look at the second princess, and I also feel very kind. If there is really a need in the future, Wanrong will thank the second princess for her kindness first. Jiang Wanrong got up slowly, and then gave a salute.

"The crown princess doesn't have to be polite. By the way, when the imperial grandmother left, it seems that she asked you to go to her palace, right? In that case, I won't interfere with your time, don't make the imperial grandmother wait. He Xuan smiled and thanked him, and then kindly reminded the crown princess.

The two said goodbye and left, one went to Empress Dowager Jiang's Renshou Palace, and the other went back to Mrs. Cai's Zhaohua Palace.

"Princess, this day is really hard, the crown prince and concubine are really good at acting! Obviously, she accidentally stepped on the mossy pebbles, but in front of His Majesty and the Queen Mother, she framed the crown princess. Qing'er took the hot tea handed by Ruolan and said to He Xuan angrily.

Ruolan didn't know that many things had happened today, so Qing'er told her about it vividly, and He Xuan was eating refreshments on the side, looking at the two little palace maids with a smile in her eyes.

"It's bizarre! The crown princess lost her child, and she didn't go to find the real murderer to take revenge, but she was in a hurry to slander the crown princess. Ruolan muttered to herself as she thought about it.

He Xuan's eyes lit up, and he asked Ruolan with interest, "Then why do you think this crown princess is acting unreasonably?" ”

"This... The slave maid thought that the prince's side concubine had a shocking appearance and a very noble background, so she was unwilling to be a concubine. Ruolan lowered her head and said in a very soft voice: "However, this concubine fell into the water again, and she was drugged, which is also very strange." ”

Qing'er's eyes widened, she patted Ruolan's shoulder, and said mysteriously: "The crown princess fell into the water because the princess ordered me to replace the mossy pebbles. As soon as the side concubine's foot slipped, she plopped and fell in. If the prince hadn't arrived in time, the concubine would have died. ”

Ruolan's eyes were hesitant, staring at him for a long time, and said, "This... Why did the second princess want to harm the prince's side concubine? Moreover, how did the princess know that the side concubine Zhao would definitely pass by the shore of Tingxin Lake? If someone else drowns, how good would that be! ”

Just now, Qing'er was only happy, but now when she heard this, she was scared for a while. She also looked at He Xuan with doubts and frightened eyes.

He Xuan's face was as usual, and he said lightly: "Because I know that the Zhao family will definitely pass by there today, the crown princess has sent someone to tell me secretly." ”

"I see! I followed the princess every day, and I didn't even notice it! Qing'er turned her sorrow into joy and suddenly realized.

Of course, Jiang Wanrong didn't send anyone to inform He Xuan, this was just a nonsense with He Xuan. Qing'er has always been a big palace maid, and this little trick is enough to deceive her.

Ruolan also regained a trace of calm, and said softly: "I see. Listening to Qing'er talk about what happened today, this crown princess is not a good person. The situation of the crown princess in the East Palace in the future may be even more difficult! It's really pitiful, offended the Zhao family, and is not favored by the prince. ”

He Xuan looked at Ruolan who sighed softly, and the two sentences behind him seemed to be talking to himself. He Xuan only said lightly: "In this harem, it is inevitable to face these conspiracies and tricks, and you can't hide from them, so you can only move forward bravely." ”

In this case, it is a comfort.

Ruolan served by Hexuan's side for a few days, Hexuan didn't like too many palace people to serve, and she didn't need Ruolan to accompany Hexuan out of Zhaohua Palace on weekdays. However, when the princess was away, Ruolan also kept the house in order, and the books were put on the shelves in different categories. treats inferior palace maids, Ruolan is becoming more and more like a palace maid.

Because of this, He Xuan is more and more optimistic about this Ruolan, and wants to cultivate it well in case of emergency.

"Oh yes, how is Xu Jieyu doing these days?" He Xuan thought of Xu Jieyu, who was also pregnant, and blurted out a question.

"Xu Jieyu is still the same, I heard that the symptoms of nausea are more obvious, and she often has to vomit out what she eats." Qing'er hurriedly replied.

He Xuan smiled and said, "Most pregnant women are like this, just be safe." Somehow, He Xuan thought of her child in the previous life, and she didn't know if the child was okay now, probably because she was killed by Tianwei as the queen of Chu.

In addition to self-deception, she has never dared to think about the fate of this child, but at this moment she suddenly remembered, she couldn't hide the sadness and grief in her heart, and unconsciously clenched her fists.

"Princess, the slave maid suddenly remembered that not long after the princess went out, Gongzi Hou sent a letter to say that he wanted to talk to the princess in the imperial garden in a few days." Ruolan said respectfully.

"Got it. You wrote back to me and said that I was not feeling well lately, so I should not be able to go. He Xuan said lightly.

"Why doesn't the princess go?" Qing'er looked at He Xuan very confused, and said, "Gongzi Hou is wholeheartedly good to you, and in terms of bearing and appearance, he is one in ten thousand." ”

"Sister Qing'er, are you thinking of seeing Gongzi's thick attendant Daping?" Ruolan teased Qing'er, who was very anxious, and the latter rolled her eyes at her, but she was not angry.

Only then did He Xuan understand that in the unconsciously getting along with Qi Hou, Qing'er and Daping also had feelings for each other. Originally, a young boy and a girl, of the same age, matched by identity, would like each other is a normal thing.

So, He Xuan didn't mean to blame Qing'er, she just smiled and said angrily: "Look at your urgency, you forgot that in a few days, the harem school will be opened." When the time comes, the princess and the princess and the protons will get together every day to listen to the master's lectures, and you will have the opportunity to meet that Daping. ”

Qing'er was so embarrassed that she blushed with shyness when she said this to Xuan and Ruolan, and said, "Who is looking forward to seeing him, the princess should not learn from Ruolan's little girl to make fun of me!" ”

After that, Qing'er ran out of the smoke, like a shy little girl.

Ruolan covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled at Hexuan. He Xuan also felt that Qing'er was lively and cute, and couldn't help laughing.

"Let her go, she won't be able to run far anyway, and I'll be back obediently in a while." He Xuan squinted his eyes and smiled, then picked up the tea bowl on the table and took a sip of tea.

"The princess is right, the slave maid thinks that Sister Qing'er's temperament is very interesting." Ruolan saw that Hexuan's teabowl was empty, and gently picked up the teapot and poured another cup.

He Xuan shook the tea bowl in his hand, sniffed the fragrant vapor, and said, "Qing'er is good as Qing'er, and you are also good as yours." Oh yes, tomorrow Cousin Wenxuan is coming to me to discuss business outside the palace, so you can also come and listen. ”

Ruolan hesitated for a moment, her eyes flickered a little, she slowly lowered her head, and said softly, "No." ”

"Ruolan, I want you to learn these things first, so let you listen to them." He Xuan looked at Ruolan's submissive expression and patiently explained: "You are different from Qing'er, you are smart and knowledgeable, and you can take charge of some things independently in the future." It's just that you are ... There is still a lot of experience to be done. However, you don't have too much pressure and just learn slowly. ”

Ruolan rubbed the handkerchief in her hand, bit her lip, and said in a strong voice: "The princess is really kind, she appreciates the slave maid like this, and the slave maid must study hard and serve the princess as soon as possible." ”

"Well, then I'm relieved. I admire Qing'er's lively and cheerful life, she is by my side with all her heart, and I am very satisfied with her. You two girls can be by my side, that's our fate. He Xuan said with a smile.

Ruolan's eyes were a little moist, her eyes fluctuated, she looked at Hexuan, and then bowed deeply.

He Xuan was really tired from this day, and after having dinner with Ji Tai and Mrs. Cai as usual, he rested early.

Tianwei walked indoors with the support of a group of palace people, and looked at a little boy who was slumped on the ground with yellow muscles and thin muscles.

The child's appearance was not real, but he could only faintly feel his heart, as if he was suffering a great deal of pain.

Tianwei gave Sakura a look, and the latter understood, and immediately walked quickly to the little boy's side. She picked up a teapot from the corner of the table, lifted the lid, and poured the cold tea on the little boy.

The little boy woke up immediately, and when he saw that it was Sakura, his eyes were filled with horror for a moment. He trembled and said, "You... How did you end up here? Who let you in? ”

Tianwei pretended to cough lightly, and said faintly: "Why, I brought her here to see how your injured leg is doing." ”

Tianwei's eyes shifted from the little boy's face to his legs, which were supposed to be immature calves, the flesh was blurred, and some of the flesh had begun to rot.

Looking down the calf, one foot has no shoes and socks, naked and exposed. What about the foot under the other calf? How is it that there is only an empty blood hole left?
